Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Whoa.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
You know, some of the funniest things, just stuff you
can't make up, actually happens here in the radio station
sometimes and you know, gosh, man, I don't even know
how to go about explaining what just happens zck attack.
But that was one of the funniest things ever. And
it has to do with so gosh, without too much

(00:43):
inside baseball.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
We are on we are on a delay.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
You're not hearing what you're hearing is I don't know
how to try to explain this without every the entire
audience just being so on so many drugs to try
to even understand it. But what was funny At the
top of the hour, when we were just doing something,
there was a selection on the board in where the
soundboard where Zach is, and there was a selection that

(01:11):
was different than what's typically in there, and so the
audio that he was hearing was delayed.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
So he said, he goes.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
You know what, just say what you were just saying
to me, Because that was the funniest thing ever.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Man, You I could you stop talking and then looked
at me through the glass but through here I could
still hear you.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
In your room where you were, you could still hear
me talking, yet you were looking right at me and
I wasn't, and I'd had my I took my.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Headphones off us.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Now I get I've done some things in my life,
so there was a maybe flashback or two there, but
there was I didn't know if I was having a
panic attack or I accidentally took something, because it was
the weirdest thing ever.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
He's staring at me and I'm not talking in the
so he's looking in to the studio where I'm sitting,
and then in the room the producer studio where he is,
he's looking through glass and yet I'm not talking in
the sound that he's hearing in the room that and
typically he's seeing everything real time obviously, but there was

(02:16):
a selection in that room that had him delayed as
what he was hearing the sound.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
It was just a funny.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
It was the funniest thing watching you, man, because you
had this look on your face, like you know, I
could I basically was Elvis in here.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
I mean more or less, this is very confusing, very funny.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Now that was so funny.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
At for a second, I was like having a panic attack.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
You can't make this out, you can't make it up.
It's just the funniest thing ever.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Oh man. Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Anyway, I think if I can put there, it is good. Lord,
If if I can punch up there, he is. Boots
is joining us. Now are you with us?

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Man?

Speaker 4 (02:59):
I am. That sounds like a rough few minutes there, Dude,
this is crazy.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
I mean, all this stuff, I'm not sure exactly what.
Some switches got switched in there somehow in the studio
where he was, and so he was hearing everything on
delay in there. So what he was hearing I had
said like seven seconds ago, so I I would already
had my headphones off and was just sitting here.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
He's like, why why am I? It's so bizarre.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
He's talking, but yet I'm looking right at him.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
He's not talking. It's so wid. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
I do not smoke the marijuana, but I may have
tried it before in my life. You know that point
where you're like, this has to end. I have to
get back to normal.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
That's what it felt like.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
I just couldn't get hold of it.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
It was hilarious just watching his face. It's so funny. Boots.
You're on the road, correct, I mean you're uh yeah, I'm.

Speaker 4 (03:54):
On my way down to pick up a Mustang down
in Tennessee for customers.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh, I thought you were in a cannonball run or
one every Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Wish every Tuesday morning. I delivered a car for cruising
Classics and it's been a good little Tuesday gig for me,
making some good money.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Nice.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
I enjoy it. I get away from all the hustle
and bustle, and I don't have to go buy through
Grove City and I get shot. Other than that, that's great.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
I was getting ready to play East Bounded downloaded up
and truck it.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
We were gonna play. We're gonna do what they say
can't be done. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
I love Soaking the Bandit. I love it.

Speaker 5 (04:29):
Oh yeah, oh yeah that movie. But that was not
my favorite of the trans ams quite frankly.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Oh the yeah, the what was that? The fire Bird?
What was that? It was a seventy eight trans Am
seventy eight.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Seventy seven was the original Bandit car, the seventy seven. Uh.
They had some automatics, but most of them are stick shifts.
Most of the stick shifts had Pontiac motors. Most of
the automatics had holes reveal motors. Just for the record, Wow.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Interesting. I was a big fan one.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
I think it was a seventy six where they had
the six point six liter engine.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, yeah, they was amazing. Was a beast Uh oh
yeah yeah, well yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
You four speed. They were the solid lift can Pontiac motor.
They were a lot faster than the automatics. And that's
where the old uh stereotypical well I stick shifts are faster.
Wells Will had a bunch of motors laying around, so
they threw them in the trans am with the automatics,
and then they Pontiac. So we keep the transam true
with the four speed, we'll put the Pontiac motor in
it so there's some information for it.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Man, that's when she could really get away from you.
If you weren't, if you didn't really know how to
drive it, you all of a sudden, your sidewas are
upside down or in a ditch track.

Speaker 6 (05:35):
Traction control back then was good tires, as will be
a once with a four to fifty five in it,
But the damn thing weighed like four thousand tons.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
Yeah, the four fifty five wasn't all that impressive because
the car was so heavy that if you get that accelerator,
the back end just went down. It just slammed down
to the ground. Yeah, because the car had just so
much weight to it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Remember the Monty Carlo ssmember. I think it was what
they were in. That was in the eighties.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
I think eighty three to like eighty seven was the
last year for the real drive ones.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, and those things would haul right, I mean, I
remember they are pretty fast for back then.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
You know the Mustang gets But do you think if
you ever google horsepower on them cars? They had none,
not like now. You can buy a new hell Cat
with seven or seven horsepowers like what in the world
and people don't get killed in them, which doesn't make
much sense to it, But well.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
They have those in case you can't afford to fly
boots and you can attach wings to them and actually
lift off.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
I mean coming out.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
You got to get clearance if you're going near any airports,
for the love of It's ridiculous, you're right, I mean,
when you see that kind of horsepower, you go, where
are you gonna let that eat that thing? Can't you
got to get to the Autobahn or something like in
the Dell at least or something right?

Speaker 1 (06:45):
Crazy?

Speaker 5 (06:45):
Oh, yeah, we'd be nice if we had something like
that in the US. Yeah, like a stretch like Montana,
you know where it's the speedless kind.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
Of if a cop isn't around.

Speaker 5 (06:55):
Oh my gosh, that always around. When I'm on two seventy,
I hit the ARA, it's like the rad you'll calls
you here he comes.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Boys.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah, they're waiting for me. I just try to drop
Boots his names if they pull me over. But typical
doubles typically they pulled me out of the car and
arrest me.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
At that point, they usually let me go because we
have their back so much. You should tell Man Blazer
from sixteen. And I'm the only immedia people besides Boots,
Chuck and a few handful of us that have those
cops backs because, believe me, ninety nine percent of the
cops are the greatest guys and girls you ever meet.
And it's that one percent it gets the bad press.
But we know that rolls.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Yeah, absolutely, And in those situations too, you gotta watch
how you do that because as far as like name dropping, uh,
you gotta gotta look at their age too, because it
seems like the younger ones, I don't know if they're
listening or not. Just be honest to me.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
You know.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
Yeah, well they got they got freshly pressed shirts.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well anyway, uh so yesterday you sent me a video
clip and I'm getting ready for the show, and you
send that to me, and then you send it to
Chuck too, and so yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
I'm like looking at this, going what exactly happened here?

Speaker 2 (08:07):
Because I really couldn't make heads or tails exactly the
reference it was, you know, the way that you sent it.
And then I'm seeing carjacking suspect leads police on high
speed chase, crashes in the Columbus Police cruiser. And then
you are like kind of saying, hey, man, I was
so you what is it your ability to be in
the middle of all these shenanic guests?

Speaker 5 (08:27):
Well, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
I was down a fast response one of my good sponsors.
At the beginning of the month, I go on cut
checks from my radio show. Well, I'm coming northbound out
of Grove City on three C right by that Jolly Pirate,
and here come two Grove City SUVs up on the
flying lights of Blazing. So I do a lot of
ryelongs over on the hilltop on nineteen precincts. At the

(08:49):
beginning of the month, that's when all the chaos happens.
But I've been on fifty rye longs and never had
this bunch of excitement. So I'm coming northound these Grove
City cops come flying up on me so over and
they make a right on southwest, and next thing I know,
the light turns green. I start going. Here comes this
wrecked white suv at me in the middle lane, and

(09:12):
all once the kid that they apprehended eventually jumps out
runs across the front of my truck. It's my pushguard
spins around and I almost went after him. My instincts
said brunn him over, but I thought I don't need
that press, stay out of it. So I pulled forward
to turn my camera on like every other person with
a camera, and I start videoing it. Well, the passenger

(09:35):
was a young lady. Boy, they didn't mess around with her.
They snatched her up, took her to the ground. Well,
one of the deputies looked at me, and I'm pointing
where the guy ran, and about five cruisers went that way,
and just then the one officer waved me forward, glanced
in front of my truck and waved me on. And
then I'm watching out the new mirror because I had
to pull over again because here come five more cruisers.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Good night.

Speaker 4 (09:57):
I mean, this was I'm not kidding you. I've never
seen that many cruiser in a football field area in
my life. There had to be forty cruisers. The helicopters
thirty feet above me. So I'm just sitting there and
I start going again. I had to pull over yet
again when I get up by the McDonald's and that
there's where the cruisers smashed. There's a lady in a

(10:18):
blue Bronco. Her car was in the middle of it.
So I'm assuming the out run.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
You dropped Okay, you dropped out for a second. Okay, yeah,
sorry about that.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
Yeah, but the cruiser got hit by the guy. So
I saw the smashed up cruiser, and I saw that
there was a blue Ford Bronco look like it was
smashed up in front of McDonald's and Grove City. And
then I get out and by freeway, here comes four
more cruisers.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
And and you were just breaking up again.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
You said, here comes four more cruisers, and then you're
doing the transformer thing. You're like, yeah, like when you're talking,
but you said, four more cruisers come flowing up, and.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Now it's tough. Diff was awesome.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Thanks, and then we're up to now we're up to
like forty five cruisers.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Or so yeah like that.

Speaker 4 (11:07):
Yeah, yeah, but they got him in a dumpster, I guess,
and I didn't know what was going on. Part of
me is glad I stayed out of it, and I'd
recommend everybody does that because I thought, well, I know
where the kid ran. I was going chasing down and
bumping with my truck, maybe knock him on his tailbone.
But I thought, man, nowadays, in the woke world, we're
still stuck in a little bit. I would get sued probably,
oh yeah, because he's a misunderstood kid. And I'll show

(11:28):
his fifth great picture. But you know the thing is,
you know, put his task on in his red little
you know, graduation. Now, Finn, his mom will get on
here and say he was changing his ways. He was
just armed robbery of cars. You know.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
You know what, you know, what's amazing about this story
is your ability to process that whole thing the way
you did in real time while it was happening, and
you thought better.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Of running him over.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, and you know what, I think you're spot on there,
and I feel like you may have helped apprehend him
to Boots.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
And that's really that's.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Really the greatest part of this because uh, it was
he was carjacking, right, I mean, he carjacked somebody.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
And then yeah, gunpoint is the girl? Is the female
that was in the vehicle with him? Is she the one?

Speaker 7 (12:12):
Like?

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Was she carjacked or was she with him?

Speaker 4 (12:15):
Well, I don't know what I saw that situation, because
before I pulled forward, I saw them take her to
the ground pretty aggressively. But she had her purse and
she was holding clicking, so it kind of looked like
maybe she was reaching for something. So I don't think
the officers overreacted. But she was a slant, slender little
girl of color and she was not resisting. But but

(12:37):
you know, they had a job to do because from
inor stand from the news reports. Now the guns. This
kid was showing a gun. And another reason I'm glad
I didn't do visual anti Boots, and maybe I shot
a hole in my truck and I have a dirty
car fax I don't want that, So you also don't.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Want a hole in you either, Boots.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
I mean, there's I got I got some meat around me,
it'd be a good story. I could be on Fox
News telling the story how I got shot by a
misunderstood kid that just was you know, arm robberying people,
you know, carjacking.

Speaker 5 (13:06):
Every other city in America they run a car fax
to check on REX accidents in that Columbus, Ohio.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
Yeah, how many bullets is this car taking?

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Is it akia? And how many times have been swiped?

Speaker 5 (13:17):
You know?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
But I did feel sorry for the young lady because
I could overhear her saying, I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know. And then they made her go to
the ground and they kind of put her at that,
which is fine, and then by then I was on
my way. But the helicopter was amazing. I mean, we well, boots.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Boots, everybody has amnesia in the middle something like that.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
You didn't know that, I mean, that's why she don't know.
She don't know, she don't know. So yeah, it's just
amnesia that happens.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
Well, I don't know if they could find her fifth
grade picture, but I hope they hope her parents should
dig it up.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
Well, good to hear that you're safe and pretty exciting,
and you had you had some like uh, well, you
had some original video there too, I mean with everything. Yeah, yeah,
it's interesting. Did you you trying to sell it to
any of the TV stas?

Speaker 1 (14:02):
No?

Speaker 4 (14:02):
I didn't. You know, you know the other thing, my luck,
someone would use against the officers throwing their job the
way their trains do their jobs.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
They would make it.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Yeah, you know. The attorney's come sniffing on that one. Well,
we can get a settlement for this kid.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
You know, that's a good point, really good point. Just
keep it to yourself, don't.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
Give it to it's our secret.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah exactly. Hey, real quick too, just shifting gears here.
How about there's these few first weeks of forty seven
in office.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
This has been incredible, hasn't it?

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Oh? So, I think it's so funny watching the liberals head.
I watched Rachel Matt mattah whatever heck their name is, Yeah,
say a turkey neck. But I watch her, and I
watch her head explode. And I channel Surf every Sunday
getting prepared for raw with Mindy and I and I
channel surf CNN at MSNBC over to Fox, and I

(14:51):
go back and forth, back and forth, and I get
such a kick. How he could say, man, I gave
a homeless guy a pair of socks. They would come back. Well,
they weren't wool, they were just regular gym socks. Trump
haats homeless people. I mean they find everything in the world.
I just bust out laughing and gas is going down.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
It is, You're right, it is. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (15:12):
Hey.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
And another thing too, some of the some of the
plate like you could see posts that did not age
very well on you know, on x or on Facebook
or whatever. Some of the stuff I was looking at
today is still saying some things that could be affected
by the tariff. Twenty five percent on Canada, twenty five
percent on Mexico. I'm like, hello, update, that was over.

(15:33):
Trump is so fast they can't even keep up with
everything that's happening with him.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
You know, it's crazy.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
No, I have a close friend of mine. Is that
one of his intern type people? Now he works for
the Republican Party. I'm going to say the name, but
he pulled me aside at the Trump rally when you
and Joshua up front. I was at the same rally, yeah,
and I said, he goes. One thing Donald Trump does
is he starts a little fire over here, so the
media jumps on it, and meanwhile we're here. He has
a forest fire. He does these little little fires so

(16:03):
they sniff around that. That way you'll get the real
drop done. That's what it does. He's a king of it.
That's he's a he'd big a great car sales. Oh
my god, dropped the cars he could sell.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yeah, gosh, it has been I love it. It's uh.
I described it.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Balderson was in studio with us yesterday, but I described
it as like whack a mole what he's doing right
now with legacy media.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
They can't. He's just like, I'm over here. Who you
missed me?

Speaker 2 (16:30):
You remember the guy with the uh with the what
was it the he had the fishing pole. He's like, oh,
you almost had it, you know, the older guy.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
That's why I'm gonna say this too. I'm glad he
hires smart, hot women. I'm okay with that.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yes, yes, I'm okay with that.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
I have no problem with that.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Boots, thank you very much for calling in Safe Travels.
How far have you started back toward Columbus yet?

Speaker 4 (16:54):
Oh no, I'm just on my way to Tennessee. I'm
riding solo and my big old truck and listening to you.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Guys on I very cool. And then you are coming
back tonight or you're now.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
I'll stay overnight and come back in the morning and
drop off my merchandise over to Cruise and Classics. Somebuddy
Larry Pendleton in the gang.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
All right, very good boots, thanks for checking in with us,
h and save travels. Brother, appreciate you.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
All right, thanks you all right, we'll see it thick.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Weather, Sports and the Mark Blazer Show on six '
ten WTVN. Well, this is getting a little interesting as
far as the weather that's coming at us goes Chief
Meteorologists Marshall mcpeak's joining us now. So, uh, I am intrigued.

(17:39):
When I see the word thunder in wintertime, I'm always like, man,
what is happening?

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Is at the end of time? But it isn't.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
But yeah, when I see that, Marshall, like I was
reading in your forecast, I'm like, oh, what do we
got going here?

Speaker 9 (17:54):
So yeah, so let's start with tonight. Tonight's fine, no
big deal, just some clouds in twenty six. Tomorrow we're
fine during the day. So the interesting part gets to
tomorrow evening. Tomorrow evening we have some freezing rain moving
into the area. So what's the difference here, all right,
So let's walk through that real quick. Freezing rain is

(18:15):
rain that falls as liquid and freezes on contact. So
that's what gives us the icy glaze, like when you
see it on the trees and on the roads and
on outdoor surfaces, you get that icy glaze. Sleet is
the little pellets, little icy pellets. So that's the difference
between sleet and freezing rain. Gropple, which you've also heard
us talk about, is kind of like little teeny tiny snowballs,

(18:38):
like dippin' dots, Right, there's still little they're not quite
ice balls, but they're more like snowballs, but they fall
kind of the same way. So gropple freezing rain and sleep.
We're gonna get the freezing rain, which creates the icy glaze.
That'll start Wednesday night, and it'll create the slick conditions
overnight into Thursday morning. So we're gonna put in a

(18:59):
little on that because things are gonna get very slick.
Plus it's gonna change to rain. It'll actually warm up overnight.
So then what you have is an icy glaze and
rain on top of it. What happens when you put
wet on top of ice. Oh Now, it's really slick.
So that's part of the reason why Wednesday night into

(19:21):
Thursday morning may be an issue. Eastern Ohio is already
under a winter weather advisory for that, and you may
see that expanded into other parts of central Ohio over
the next twenty four hours. Then Thursday, it's rain for
a good chunk of the morning and fifty three in
the afternoon. So the ice that we do get is
not gonna last very long, but it's at just the

(19:42):
right time of the day that it may create.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Some issues for the morning commute on Thursday. All Right, Marshall,
thank you. It is forty one right now. It feels
a little nicer just because they're sunshine right.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Right exactly when you look out excuse me, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Man, I'm like, I don't know what's going on all
of a sudden. All right, I'll talk like this. I
know you'll sell normal as I do this.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
He is the ABC News technology reporter. Mike Dubuski is
joining us now, and you know it is Tech Tuesday.
Mike and uh Man, I don't know. We Chuck and
I were just kind of talking about this a little bit.
Agos we were kind of you know, uh, promoting this
was coming up and it was like, can you pass
Humanity's Last Exam? And it was like, uh, I got

(20:28):
a little I'll be honest, I was like, this is
this is a little scary what we're seeing right here.
Should we be scared?

Speaker 5 (20:34):
Mike?

Speaker 6 (20:34):
It's certainly a dramatic name. In fact, the people who
created this this exam and were originally gonna call it
Humanity's Last Stand, but they said that was a little
too dramatic and they had to reel it back a
little bit. But but what it is, it is at
least very scary to people who are scared of standardized tests,
and I count myself among them. This is an exam

(20:55):
of three thousand questions that cover over one hundred different subjects.
For two percent are math questions, eleven percent our biology,
there's humanities, social sciences, and on and on it goes.
And these are questions that were written by more than
a thousand subject matter experts, professors, researchers, that sort of
thing affiliated with five hundred institutions around the world across

(21:17):
fifty countries, they say, And the guy who kind of
organized all this is a man named Dan Hendricks. He's
the director for the Center for AI Safety, and he
says this new test is supposedly the hardest test that
generative AI technology has ever faced. In other words, we
are not intended as human beings to take this test.
This is rather a test to evaluate how intelligent artificial

(21:41):
intelligence is.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
So, okay, see the adaptive nature of AI worries me
right there, because it will not take long for all
those microchips to figure out how to answer these questions correctly.
And the next thing you know, we've got Arnold Schwarzenegger
doing a real life Terminator narration for us.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
But Yesta coming down the street right.

Speaker 6 (21:59):
Now, Boy, it's already happening in some ways. Right, So,
previously standardized tests in AI testing is nothing new. This
is kind of how we evaluate how good these systems are.
The previous sort of standard was called the Massive Multitask
Language Understanding Test or MMLU. They are not very good
at naming things in the AI SA even still, this

(22:22):
was a test that was kind of like a PhD
doctorate level test. It asked really hard questions. But the
problem became that popular models basically got too good at
the test. The latest models from open AI from Google,
from Anthropic and others. They all scored higher than eighty
percent on the MMLU. As a point of comparisons Humanity's

(22:45):
last exam, this new thing open AI's oh one reasoning model,
one of their more recent models, scored a nine point
one percent, so a pretty definitive failing grade there. Last week,
you guys and I talked about deep Seek. This new
Chinese AIMI is scored a nine point four percent, so
a little bit better, but even still a shade of

(23:05):
what they were testing at.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
So yeah, so it's going AI is going to essentially
this will be easy for it to learn or I'm
just man, you're telling us exactly what is going on
with this, and it is still mike for me in
my small brain.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Really still very difficult to comprehend. Well, here do.

Speaker 6 (23:29):
You want a little taste of what the test is like.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Please?

Speaker 6 (23:31):
Do you have sample questions for you? Yes, there are
many of them, and they are kind of complicated to read.
But the one that I've sort of centered on is
this one from the ecology section of the exam, And
here it goes. Hummingbirds within apodeformists uniquely have a bilaterally
paired oval bone, a seismoid embedded in the cautolateral portion

(23:52):
of the expanded cruciate apooneurosis of insertion of M depressor.
How many paired tendons are supported by this seismoid bone?
Answer with a number.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Six, we're doing I'm going to go with two.

Speaker 6 (24:08):
So two, from what I've been able to put together,
is the correct answer.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
It is too.

Speaker 6 (24:13):
However, it's very difficult to track down the answers to
any of these sample questions because, of course, we know
that these models are trained on the Internet. They're trained
on basically anything that you can find online easily accessible,
and I'm just on the website for Humanity's Last Exam
looking at this, So it kind of makes sense that
they would not want to put the answer right there,

(24:34):
because then the model would learn it and then know
that answer. But for what I've been able to put together,
it is two. But that's sort of the flavor of
question that we're getting. Again, it seems like it's very
hard for these systems. You know, open Ai has kind
of been doing pretty well, you know, in comparison to
its competitors Deep Seek as well. Google was only able
to manage a seven point seven percent Anthropic managed a

(24:56):
four point three percent. Elon Musk Has an AI company
that makes a large language model called Grock two. The
latest version of that model scored a three point eight percent,
So they're not doing particularly well, but to your point earlier,
it does seem like they're getting better over time. Hendrick
says that he expects these models to regularly score about

(25:17):
fifty percent on this test before the end of the year,
and over the weekend, OpenAI released a whole bunch of
new models, including a research model that they called Deep
Research and that's scored a twenty six point six percent.
Just to give you a little sense of how fast
the stuff has been happened, See.

Speaker 5 (25:33):
If they gave two So I'm artificially intelligent that if.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
They gave if they redid those tests, I would imagine
even though they could readminister straight away. And it's again,
I feel like it's going to get, you know, to
go from twenty six to fifty four, you know, I mean,
I feel like it's going.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
To climb like that and all that.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
I don't know if that's something I feel like as
where we're headed, no question.

Speaker 6 (25:59):
Right right, And it kind of gets at some similar
questions that people have raised about actual standardized tests like
the SAT and the ACT. Do they accurately measure a
person's intelligence or smarts or is it just people are
studying to a test and that sort of thing.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Is that's the right way to.

Speaker 6 (26:16):
Evaluate a person's intelligence now, And the same question can
apply to these AI models.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, you're evaluating their memory, you know, especially if they're
memorizing the correct answers and so on. Yeah, the real
test is if it's applicable in a real life situation
and all of that. But that's not necessarily how they
test or determine IQ and all of those things. And
I thought one of the questions was going to be
if a train leaves Chattanoo, guys sixty you know That's.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
What I was like, Oh, I know this one. I
know this one with.

Speaker 6 (26:45):
All of those energies, And that's about where I tuned
out of my standardized testing world. So you got me there.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
All those large words Mike was reading as he gave
us question translated in my mind what I heard was
on a hummingbird slurper, how many tendons control the use
of the slurper?

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Oh that's what That's how I question I don't know what.

Speaker 5 (27:04):
It's not a beat, but the thing, the hunting hummingbird
in search into the flower, slurper, the slurper new it's
seven eleven, the slurper. The slurper gets you one of them.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Mike Tubuski, ABC News Technology reporter on Tech Tuesday, Mike,
thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Appreciate you man.

Speaker 6 (27:22):
Of course, I guess.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
I guess it broke a couple of hours ago.

Speaker 10 (27:31):
It got past me though, But uh, you know, arguably
the greatest golfer depends.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
On what you talk about.

Speaker 10 (27:39):
As far as what qualifies as the greatest golfer. But
I I think you can you can argue that Tiger
Woods is one of the greatest, if not the greatest,
golfers in history. His mom has passed Tita, who is
as you just were telling me, Chuck, you know he did.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
I can hear him saying that, you know, she was
his biggest fan. Yeah, and she believed. And of course
Earl passed a while ago his father. But yeah, man,
he's He's now joined, unfortunately, the ranks of people who
have no natural parents.

Speaker 5 (28:12):
Even President Trump just posted on True Socials just informed
that Tiger Woods wonderful mother Caltita passed away.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
She's gone on to Green or Fairway. Yeah, yeah, so
there it is. She has passed.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
So yeah, hearts go out to Tiger and in that
whole situation.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
All right.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Alex Stone is joining us now from ABC News, and Alex,
you know you've reported on this before with us on
the show, and so now it looks like I'm wondering
the lawsuits and so on are probably getting ready to
fire up, I would imagine.

Speaker 11 (28:48):
Right yeah, post wildfires out here, there are already a
bunch of lawsuits against different entities like the power company
because at least in the Altadena fire, seems like southern
California edison that may have been responsible, may have been
there equipment. But now there is a new investigation that
is being launched by about fourteen members of Congress because

(29:08):
of all the problems. And it could have been here,
it could have been in Columbus, it could have been anywhere.
With the wireless emergency alerts to go off on your
cell phone during an emergency, you know, kind of like
an amber alert where it makes the tone and then
you get the message on your phone. And in some
of the areas they didn't go off at all that's
being investigated. But what this is going to look into
is the erroneous ones that did go off where they

(29:30):
told ten million people you're in danger, get out when
they weren't in any danger and they were like fifty
miles away from it, and it created panic and people
began muting their alerts because they.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Didn't want to get them.

Speaker 11 (29:41):
So it's this whole thing of trying to understand how
the wireless alerts work and what went wrong and it
could be anywhere in the world where they need to
be used of why didn't they work correctly? And being
led by Congressman Robert Garcia, and he told them.

Speaker 8 (29:55):
This is a state emergency where there was a clear
failure in our system to get public the information that needed.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
And his biggest concern is, ye, people are going to
ignore them.

Speaker 11 (30:03):
It's gonna be like crying Wolf where they do go
off and people pay no attention to them because they've
gotten mistaken ones and they just did not work. And
when they mistakenly went off telling tons of people that
they needed to evacuate when they didn't. There was a
county employee in charge of the alerts who said this
was technology, not humans doing it that it was technology

(30:25):
sending out these alerts.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
This was the apology.

Speaker 12 (30:27):
First of all, I want to clarify this is not
human driven. There is no one sitting at a desk
right now initiating emergency alerts.

Speaker 11 (30:37):
The Congressman Garcia saying, wait, what this is a computer
doing it?

Speaker 8 (30:40):
On a tell we have somehow an automated system that's
sending out alerts without any sort of human control. To
be able to stop that or to fix that issue
as it's happening is really concerning.

Speaker 6 (30:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (30:53):
So guys, they're demanding answers now from not only here
locally from the county, but they want FEMA and the
FCC and the software company that they used to send
out these alerts here and in jurisdictions all over the
contrary to better understand why all of this went on
and trying to get some answers.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
You know, as smart as AI is and these computer systems,
so there always has to be a human element involved,
and this is a shining example of that computer to.

Speaker 11 (31:19):
Be assuming that there wasn't that, you know, he said
that there wasn't when the county rep came up and
apologized for it. But it seems like if these are
being written and the messages in there saying these areas
and evacuate now the wildfire is approaching.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
There's got to be a human doing that, right.

Speaker 11 (31:34):
This isn't just a computer looking at video going let's
evacuate that area now that there's got to be a
human behind there, and that's why they want some of
the answers.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Oh, there's so many things that need to be evaluated there.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
And so you said there are lawsuits happening, now.

Speaker 6 (31:51):
Oh, yeah, there are quite a few.

Speaker 11 (31:52):
There are a number against Southern California Edison for the
fire that looks like it started underneath power lines, even
though Southern California Edison keeps saying, well, it wasn't us,
we didn't do it, but the most likely link seems
to go back to them. And then in the Palisades
fire against the Department of Water and Power for not
having a reservoir that's been talked about quite a bit

(32:14):
not having water in it because they were doing maintenance
on it. So there's, yeah, there's a lot of lawsuits
being filed, and at least it looks like for Southern
California Edison if they are found responsible, which they have
not determined that yet. If they are, it could be
billions and billions of dollars.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
Oh man, this is absolutely crazy. We'll be continuing to
follow it, no question. Alex Stone, ABC News, Alex, thank
you very much.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
You get it.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Let me see you man, I was just thinking about this.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
As much technology as we have, it's like the more
technology we have, the more idiotic things happen. It's bizarre
to me that they can't get something as simple as
this figured out. And by simple, I just mean it's
specific areas that it seems so elementary to me.

Speaker 5 (32:59):
You know, as long as stupid people are controlling efficient technology,
the result is stupid. And that is that's you know,
we were talking about the the ai and so forth earlier.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Remember back to the Hawaiian fires.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
These lawsuits are talking about with California Edison, there was
speculation all the Hawaiian Electric Company or whatever did not
have whatever came of that. You never heard anything because
it was, you know, unpopular to say that somebody was
at fault California. As long as you have people out
there right now that are lamenting Donald Trump having those

(33:36):
dams opened up, and they're, oh, we're wasting all that
beautiful water. Yeah, what idiots. You've got too many idiots
in control of things out there. And California is about
to bankrupt itself with all the liberal juries that are
going to award huge putitive damages that the state's going
to be paying. They don't have the money to pay it.
They're already in the hole. This this could end very

(33:58):
badly for the state of CALIFORNI.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Well, it's funny as long as there's you know, Congress
is involved in this and investigate, you know, depending on
who really is at fault. If it's convenient for them
to go ahead and get them, then they will. If
they're not, because some of these companies that they're going to,
they'll be like, well and it'll it'll be blurry, it'll
be pixelated if you will. And you know what loftis,

(34:21):
Michael loftis who was on on ME Friday. He brought it,
brought up a great point because they already have the
guy in custody and sentenced who had the drone that
flew into one of those planes that like put a
gash in the plane that was dousing the area flying
over those there was two of them, if you'll remember, right,
and they're both red I remember, but there was a

(34:43):
hole in the one, and so they already have the
guy who flew that drone and he's already been sentenced,
and you know, Loftus's is basically was going, you know,
it's amazing that they're able to get that stuff figured
out so quickly in a situation like that, But then
you're going to have this that just drones on and
on and they're never really probably going to arrive at

(35:05):
any kind of answer. And I feel like it's going
to get swept under the rug, or it's going to
be reduced greatly any kind of penalty or anything like that,
because there's going to be people that are at fault,
that have too much money that have contributed to California government,
and they're going to get off easy for obvious reasons.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (35:28):
That like Hawaii dropping off because it was something he
didn't want to talk about. There's too much money involved,
too many high level officials involved. Suddenly we just stop
asking and if you don't talk about it, people forget it.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Switching gears, I saw this opinion piece again, and this
is a guy, he's a doctor, he lives in Cincinnati
with his wife and kids, and it's entitled I'm Tired
of Reckless Ohio Drivers. The traffic camera ban is dangerous?
The traffic camera ban? What traffic camera is dangerous? The

(36:01):
traffic cameras are if you'll remember, it was like a
whole thing at one point that they were being used
as basically money makers, and they were getting people on
kind of goofy stock.

Speaker 5 (36:14):
Okay, that's the red light cameras. That's not We've got
traffic cameras all over the place. Dude, I don't know
what you're thinking there.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
So this guy was like the other day, I was
out of red light. Car pulls up next to me.
He inches forward to check the cross traffic, then shot
across the intersection while the light was still red. Recently,
I saw motorcyclists do the same thing during rush hour,
and it was in one of Cincinnati's busiest streets, right
in front of the UC Medical Center. He went through
one red light, then another, until he passed out of

(36:40):
sight over a hill.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
He says. He goes on to go a witness.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
People stop and run through red lights all over town,
including at smaller intersections in my neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
A few years ago, these would have been rare and
bizarre sites.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Nowadays, it's common occurrence to see drivers not just stretching,
but blatantly breaking traffic laws and putting live in danger.
Traffic camera ban must be lifted. Unfortunately, in Ohio, one
of the best ways to catch and punish dangerous driving
is off the table.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
According to this article, that's absolutely wrong. Who wrote it?
What's his name? That's Chris Wood?

Speaker 5 (37:16):
Is this an opinion piece or is this yeah, yeah,
that's what I said at the beginning. Okay, okay, well no,
I mean I'm wondering because.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
In twenty thirteen, Ohio legislature banned cities from using traffic
cameras to catch speeding in red light running. The ban
was overturned by the courts, but then indirectly re implemented
by the legislature. The ban was enacted to stop cities
from using traffic cameras to increase city revenue, and out
of concern the civil penalties and posted through cameras were

(37:44):
where with the criminal penalties a police officer could impose.
This was always an absurd rationale, since the revenue from
traffic cameras is minuscule compared to most city budgets and
goes on the it's also a violation of local sovereignty.
They go on to talk about, so according to this
that here's the thing with this. I mean, I understand

(38:05):
that you know what he said. This is not something
that I've witnessed. I don't remember the last time I've
witnessed somebody do that during normal hours, and by that
I mean rush hour and so on, late at night.
If you're sitting at an intersection, and we know how
this works, if you're not tripping the light to change

(38:26):
for you, and you're sitting there and literally there are
no lights in any direction, and you're just sitting there
waiting and waiting and waiting, and you put it in reverse.
I'm very very guilty of this, and I'm not out.
I'm really not out late anymore. I'm staring at the
back of my eyelids when this would be happening. But
early on I used to back up, pull forward, move
to the left, move to the right, back up. I

(38:48):
would try to get the light to change, and sometimes
going through that light right then you are hoping that
there's not an officer sitting off to the whatever in
the darkness, waiting on you to do that and get you.
But I don't really witness this. According to this guy,
it's like a normal occurrence. I don't know abou where
you are.

Speaker 5 (39:06):
I see it all the time. I agree with him
that there is a problem on the roads. People are idiots.
Let's face it. We've got a state full of people
that perhaps are from somewhere that didn't even have paved roads,
and they're on the road among us now. So that's yeah,
that's real. I watched stop signs and red lights get
run every day. Here's the problem with what you're saying.
First of all, there are municipal there are police, There

(39:28):
are O DOT cameras all over the state of Ohio.
What is gone is the revenue generation cameras, like the
red light cameras we had from Red Flux here in
Columbus that if you got tagged by one of those,
there were no points on your driver's license for running
the red light. Your insurance company was not notified that
you were running red lights. The only thing you did

(39:50):
was pay the city money. It was like the mob
going a we got something on you, that's all it was.
It had nothing to do with safety, everything to do
with taking money out of your pocket, right, So if
you root that in safety, then is it something that
But but I think there's some sort of statute that

(40:11):
says there has.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
To be in order to hit you with points, which
then elevates your insurance rates. Right, So for all of
that to happen, it cannot be mechanical in nature.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
I feel like there's right, there's no one.

Speaker 5 (40:23):
There has to be an officer president. It can still
be mechanical, but there has to be an officer president. Now,
Franklin Township that was doing over on Demeris Road, there
was an automated camera, but there was an officer sitting
with the camera whenever it was in use, so that
he could say yeah, I saw or she could say yes,
I saw this happening when the camera alerted me that
it was about to do this. So I mean that

(40:46):
was that was fine. I don't know if they're still
doing that or not, but they were down by the
VFW on Demris between Columbus and Grove City. Columbus just
pulled the cameras out because honestly, if they gave up
money gave it, then they must have probably we've been
doing something they didn't want anybody ask questions about So
let's just get rid of them. Forget it, we're done,
cancel the contracts in the cameras back, We're done.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
So then okay, to this guy's point, if they do
start trying to use those again, there are certain statutes
that would have to change in the law, and that
is a whole another can of worms.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
We try to get that figured out.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
But would that then if those did change and it
became stiffer, if you really were doing that, would that
then slow down people doing stuff like that?

Speaker 1 (41:35):
And you know what, Here's here's the other thing with this.
I always tell my wife this too when I'm stupid.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
But like, we'll be somebody el road it feels like
they're road raging, or they go fly and buy me,
or around me and turn.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
I go, that guy's probably got a poop.

Speaker 6 (41:50):
I go.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
You really don't know what people are doing. Is he
in a hurry to go to get home because he's tired.
I don't know about all that. All I know is
when someone driving like that, I'm like, whoa, I just bet.
I'm like, okay, go go go go.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
I'm not in your way.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
Just please, you know, don't don't start cracking shots at me.
Don't start firing at me. It's all on after in
that situation. But you never know what somebody is dealing
with right in that spot. And not that it's justified,
but uh, sometimes you know, I always default to nature's
calling and calling and calling and calling, right.

Speaker 5 (42:26):
But do you think if there was an actual officer
there that pulled you over, you could say, hey, I
got a poop and they would let you go.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
I don't think they would let you go. I think
before they even get up to the car, it's a
done deal. And you better have depends on.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
Or you better have like seats that aren't clothed, and
good afternoon, officer.

Speaker 5 (42:45):
Perhaps you can smell the problem.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Could you just write the tickets so I can go
home right now? Please?

Speaker 2 (42:52):
So if that's ever happened to you, A two to one,
oh Traffic, Weather, Sports and the Mark Blazer Show wants.

Speaker 1 (43:02):
How we got people on hold? We'll get to here momentarily.
I'm holding my breath over here. Hang on, you're turning blue.
You're turning blue.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Chief Meteorologist Marshall McPeak joining us right now. And so, Marshall,
I was seeing that. I don't know if you're a
Starbucks frequenter or not. But I obviously there are a
few people that go to Starbucks as they make a
lot of money.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Well, here, it's a thing.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
It is a thing, including I think my daughter she
single handedly props up the one near us. I'm pretty
sure she's she keeps the lights on and well all
that stuff. Anyway, they're planning to get rid of a
third of their menu. It's it's like the title of
this is the company's going back to basics, and so

(43:50):
they brought back free refills.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
I don't know if did you hear about that they're
getting rid of coffee? No? No, okay, no, just a third?
Is that not something you could already do?

Speaker 4 (44:00):
No?

Speaker 2 (44:01):
No, I guess once upon a time you could, because
I don't remember it. But they blame the pandemic on it,
uh huh. And so then that went away because they
were not going to touch somebody else's cup and get
it near where they would put more coffee, you know,
any of that stuff.

Speaker 9 (44:17):
But I mean, when you're paying thirty seven dollars for
a cup of coffee, hey, how about it at least
one refill?

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Right, you would think, you would think, But that is
back now and they're now taking the menu to the
chopping block. They go on to say also the if
you'll remember, they said, if you're not buying something in here,
you're unable to use the facilities.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
And so now they're taking that. They're like, yeah, you
can just you know, anybody can go in and.

Speaker 5 (44:45):
So that wait minute, they're going back to that because
now no, they're going back to you can just come
in and use the bathroom.

Speaker 1 (44:51):
You don't have to buy something. Okay.

Speaker 5 (44:52):
See, they just pulled the plug on that like a
month ago. Now they're bringing it back. I'm confused because
there was a lawsuit because a couple of guys who.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
Were and that was that man that's old. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
But in response to that, Starbucks that we're open to
everybody come on and use our bathrooms or whatever. And
then a couple of weeks ago they said, yeah, now
you can't come in unless you're a customer.

Speaker 9 (45:10):
Oh okay, maybe that's just common courtesy. I mean, I'm
coming in to use your facility, I should.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Probably buy something exactly.

Speaker 9 (45:18):
Yeah, you know, yeah, yep, somebody somebody is going to
the trouble of a providing the bathroom. Somebody is keeping
it clean and stocked and lah blah blah. How about
you just at least buy a cup of coffee?

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Yeah, I mean yeah, In essence, you're paying five six
seven dollars to use the bathroom, unless you were like, well,
I could use a cup of coffee anyway, I'm.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
Here to get rid of the stuff you sold me
a couple of hours ago. There's that. I guess you
could get it.

Speaker 2 (45:45):
But then they start talking about their rolling out updates
to the mobile ordering, and so they're they're I don't
know what is facilitating this, because I think when I
see this, I go they're not in any trouble, because
that would be a big story if they were in
any financial trouble or they were, you know, I mean.

Speaker 9 (46:01):
You'd see them closing stores and that kind of stuff
if they were in trouble.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Right right, But they said, you know, in the coming months,
you're gonna see us begin to optimize our menu offerings,
resulting in roughly thirty percent reduction in both beverages and
food by the end of fiscal year twenty twenty five.
And I'm not sure when that is, but sometime obviously
this year for their fiscal year.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
But I don't.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
I've had they got a double smoke bacon sandwich.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
That is that cats meow.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
Holy it is so good their food any of the
food I've ever had there is like really, I mean,
it's stupid expensive, but man, it's fantastic, you know.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
I gotta be honest. I didn't know they served food.

Speaker 5 (46:39):
Oh really, I thought they were a cappuccinos, a lot
des coffees.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
I didn't even know they served food. Oh. I don't
know if you've had any of their food, Marshal, but
it is it's good. I've had some of the eggpucks. Yeah, yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep.
They're Yeah, they are good stuff.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
And if you're one of those people that goes out
early in the morning just to get that, not for
something specific, but that you're probably going to want to
shelve that, right, Marshall, Thursday morning it could get a
little icy, right, you.

Speaker 9 (47:06):
Know, at the very least it'll be I think the
question that we have for early Thursday morning is how
long is it going to take the rain to melt
off the ice. If it can do it quickly, then
our Thursday morning commute's just going to be wet. But
if it takes a little longer for that ice to
melt off Thursday morning, then your morning commute may be

(47:27):
pretty slick.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
So that's part of the issue. That is going to
be why we.

Speaker 9 (47:31):
Have an alert on this for Thursday morning. There's a
winter Weather Advisory in eastern Ohio that goes into effect
Wednesday night through Thursday morning. I wouldn't be surprised to
see that expanded into central Ohio in the next eighteen
hours or so, so watch for that if it gets
if it gets issued and expanded. In the meantime, let's
walk through the timeline. Tonight, we're good twenty six. It's

(47:54):
mostly cloudy, but we're a little above average thirty six.
On Wednesday, it's cloudy during the day, freezing rain arrives
in the evening and it continues overnight and that's when
things get icy. Then Thursday, it's rain with a high
near fifty three and should melt off that ice pretty quickly.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
So Marshall, real quick the timing on that. So it
probably is going to affect the commute, or you're saying, well,
it's got to come a little more into focus here
before it.

Speaker 9 (48:20):
So, and it's going to be almost individual to your
neighborhood to be honest. Wow, So this is going to
be one of those situations that you get this glaze
of ice overnight Wednesday. But the weird part in this
is that the temperatures will actually rise during the night,
so that the freezing rain changes into rain. Now, if

(48:42):
that happens by two o'clock in the morning and we're
sitting at forty degrees by the morning commute.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
We should be good by then.

Speaker 9 (48:51):
But if that holds on just a couple of hours longer,
then there's not going to be enough time for that
to melt before the commute starts.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
So that's kind of.

Speaker 9 (49:01):
Where it may be fine maybe on one side of town,
but not so much on the other. It's really going
to be localized to where that happens.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
All right, very good, All right, thanks Marshall.

Speaker 2 (49:12):
It is forty right now, let's grab Let's go to
the Legacy Retirement Group dot com float lines. He's in
Westerville's name is James James. Welcome to the show.

Speaker 7 (49:23):
Thank you for listening, gentleman, Thank you very much. I've
got something you all might want to consider. The individual
that the well intended individual is talking about traffic cameras.
I'm going to give you a three facts.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
Okay.

Speaker 7 (49:36):
Number one, it's estimated that each individual breaks about three
felonies a day in America.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
Okay.

Speaker 7 (49:45):
Number two, Wi Fi cell towers may soon be spying
on you without your consent. And the third is AI
is developing at a rapid rate. Do you really want
to open the door the cameras testifying against you in court?

Speaker 2 (50:04):
Well, cameras are already recording everything at this point.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Wouldn't you agree? Wouldn't you agree? Oh?

Speaker 5 (50:10):
Yeah, I've been saying for a long time. I don't
know if you ever watched the TV show Person of Interest,
but it was way ahead of its time. I had
been watching that in streaming again now because it's all
about the AI, the cameras and so forth, and it
is particularly relevant in twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
It was. It was way ahead of its time ten years.

Speaker 7 (50:26):
Ago, nineteen eighty four, gentlemen.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
Yeah, look out, yeah, okay, and or well thing, thank
you appreciate that.

Speaker 5 (50:39):
Let's get you know, Starbucks was almost called Peaquad? Is
that how you say it? The name of the ship
from Moby Dick. I don't know, I'm not familiar with
I don't know it was. It was almost called Peaquad,
which was the ship because they actually went with Captain
Ahab's first mate.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
Who was Starbuck, which is where they got the name. Oh,
I didn't know. I didn't either.

Speaker 5 (50:59):
I was checking out out while you were talking to
Marshall there because I'm like, where, because there was Starbucks.
You know, moonlight feels right a singer in the sixties,
there was Starbuck, the the the yeah, the pilot on
Battlestar Galactica with Starbucks. But I'm like, where did Starbuck
even come from? For the coffee? And that's that's where

(51:19):
it came from. They were gonna call it Peaquad instead
of Starbucks, but they actually thought a cup of pea
quad doesn't sound good.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
No, No, nobody wants a cup of Peaquad. Yeah, that
does sound kind of mine with cream. Yes, there is
a And now for the hard hitting news. Oh out
of Florida. Oh, I love when they start like that.
Out of Florida. There was a stripper. I love when

(51:46):
they start like this. Out of Florida. There was a
stripper who's twenty two years old who got busted for
are you ready Banana Battery? At seven eleven banana battery.
You can't say this guy's name. The first name. Her
last name is Turner. No relation to Tina or Ike.
I don't think she's twenty two. She got into a

(52:07):
verbal altercation and there was a female worker that was
working at seven eleven, and so they exchanged these comments
toward each other. The in derogatory in nature it reads, okay,
Turner becomes irate and usually what's sitting there on the
counter is fruit. At seven eleven, she picks up a

(52:30):
banana from the counter. She threw the banana at the
clerk's face. She hit her in the face with a banana.

Speaker 5 (52:37):
Oh okay, so it was assault with a banana as
opposed to actually assaulting the banana.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
Yeah, correct, Okay.

Speaker 5 (52:43):
That's good because she is a stripper and I was
kind of worried about where this story was going.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
Then I love it.

Speaker 2 (52:49):
They go the airborne fruit struck the employee on the
cheekbone and left a minor abrasion.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Machi, my cheek, My cheek.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
And in case you're keeping score, the banana was not
seized as evidence. So what is it now? It's just hearsay,
he said. She said, do we have video? Evidence I
ain't seasoned. The bananaa evidence She did end up getting arrested.
You cannot hit somebody with a banana.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Did you know that it's in the Bible.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
It's actually there, I think so, I'm not followed for
the banana the tailpipe.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
To believe it true is a well, I can't believe
a not the banana from the movies.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
This girl also is being held without bond for assault
with a banana.

Speaker 5 (53:42):
Yes, she was violating probation a member of Banana thirteen,
an infamous Mexican gang known to destroy cheekbones up and
down the East coast of the United States.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
Next time you're thinking of assaulting someone with a banana,
I think twice.

Speaker 5 (53:59):
Don't you know? No, go with a cucumber.

Speaker 1 (54:02):
That's all right. You don't want a coup comb in
the heads.
