Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Live from three months three to Experiencein fabulous downtown Las Vegas. It's the
podcast that celebrates our city. Thisis Living Las Vegas, and you got
Ice and Mojo in the building today. Tony's out on some secret squirrel mission.
I don't know exactly what it entails, but he told me. If

(00:21):
he told me, there might besome problems. So we're gonna handle this
today for you, Tony. Hopeeverything's cool. I'm sitting in a scene.
Tony has all kinds of like importantmeatts to be out every once in
a while. We got a rollwithout him. So it's Mojo from five
bull Ice from ninety three one theMountain, and let's reset to like what
two three months ago? Yeah,we tried to make predictions for when we

(00:43):
would hit triple digit heat here inLas Vegas. I think I said,
like Cinco de Mayo. Yeah,way off. Yeah, Tony said,
like fifteenth. You said your birthdayJune thirteenth. Yes, I was kind
of on par I mean a littlebit. I mean we won a championship
that day with our Vegas Golden Nights. As far as the weather, No,
you weren't well whatever, I mean, you were the closest of not

(01:03):
going over there. Okay, ifyou're going by prices right rules, I'll
take that. Here we are oftechnically it's a Tuesday afternoon with the twenty
seventh, and we still have nothit damn. That's but we did break
a record as of today. Yesterdaywe tied it. Today, we broke
the record for the longest window betweenone hundred degree plus days in Las Vegas.
The last time was that September eighth, that I have that right,

(01:26):
Well, I don't know about thatday, but I do know that that
record was set back in nineteen sixtyfour, which is crazy. Dude,
that's a different record, I think. Are you sure? No, So
you're talking about the last time there'sso many records. Wait, you're talking
about the last time we hit onehundred degrees. No, I'm talking about
the longest, the two hundred ninetyone days we've had since. That's the

(01:48):
longest window of non one hundred degreedays in Las Vegas. This broke the
all No, this broke the alltime longest streak, which was set back
in nineteen sixty four. I don'tknow where you got September at No,
yeah, no, no, no, the last time we hit one hundred
degrees September. Okay, that's whatI was saying. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, all right, Tony,come back. No if there's another record,
Man, the sixties were a weirdtime, then, because there's another

(02:10):
record we could hit this week.That happens well a year after that in
nineteen sixty five, and that wasthe latest date in the year that we
hit one hundred degrees. What sookay, okay, yeah, you're right.
So we broke the record. Nowwe could break another one for as
long as we keep going without tripledigits. Right, But the problem is,
I think Thursday we're gonna hit sixfigures. I'm looking at the forecast,

(02:32):
right, Oh okay, it didgo up one degree. I looked
at it about it about an hourago. It's at one hundred exactly now
it says one oh one. Ican't tell you how many times in the
last couple months that we've had atriple digit heat show up in the forecast
and then it goes away. That'swhat I'm saying. We get wind and
it cools down or yeah, orit's gonna rain, and it never does.

(02:53):
But we broke the one record ofthe two hundred ninety one, which
probably will get to two hundred ninetythree to set a new record of days
between one hundred three days in LasVegas. But this this Saturday, if
we can make it to Saturday,which it doesn't seem likely because I see
Friday, we're looking at like oneoh five, right, yep, if
we can make it to Saturday,for some miracle, maybe we'll get the
everybody's school like this, Maybe it'llcool everything. Now, all right,

(03:15):
just go outside and run around youare on? Yeah, okay. If
that happened, we would have thelatest. It would be July first,
in the latest one hundred degree dayever in Las Vegas. It is crazy
though, because now looking at thisforecast, come Thursday, once we should
we hit triple digits. That's whatit is for the rest of the ten
day triple digits, the whole restof the forecast. Oh yeah, the
whole, the whole Open up thehouse at night and let the air ind

(03:38):
No, that's done. It's like, oh, hey, you guys want
to break records. Oh you wanttriple digits, Well here now you're gonna
get it from here on out.Yeah. It's like when you put the
throttle on the floor in the carand suddenly it's going real fast. That's
in the heat all of a sudden, So by like this weekend, fourth
of July weekend, like one hundredand eleven. Is that what I saw?
One twelve on Sunday one ten,Monday one o nine, fourth of
July. Yeah, man, it'sgonna be nuts. We shouldn't complain because

(04:00):
we should have been there a monthago and we're having been so we've been
very fortunate this year in Las Vegas. I just hope, and I think
we mentioned this in an episode lastweek. I hope that it doesn't stay
this hot until like Thanksgiving. Idon't think so, man. I just
think all over the country weather hasjust been like wonky walky dude, no
matter what, like whatever we're usedto, like being from Michigan, living

(04:20):
in Oregon. You know, I'velived in these states and oh, this
is the norm. But it's notthe norm. You know, my experience
when I was there, it's justweird. Seemed really bothered by this heat
on Mother Nature is on one doc, Well, she'll be turning her name
into puddle very soon as the heatheats up here in Las Vegas. But
it's par for the course. Wejust got to accept it and hunker down

(04:43):
for a few months. I mean, you're from Texas, so this isn't
nothing. It's normally not that hotin text, it's just super humid humid.
Yeah, the humid I mean ninetyand one hundred and ten degree one
hundred and ten percent humidity feels likeit's you know, one hundred and fifty.
Yeah, but I'll take the dryheat any day, especial with the
plethora of pools we have at ourdisposal here in Las Vegas. Are you

(05:03):
gonna do anything this weekend as faras pools? Probably my pool, just
because it's right in my backyard.You know what I'm saying. Don't gotta
go far, don't got to spendany money. I can invite over whoever
I want, you know, butI wanted to ask you. Are you
team MAC or Team Windows Down?Oh? I used to be Team Windows
Down. Are you talking about inthe car? Ah? Yeah, let's

(05:24):
say the car in the car,Team MAYC. In the house. It
used to be team Windows because orteam Fan. Oh. I forgot about
because AC equals dollars, you knowwhat I'm saying. But I got solar
now, so crank that acy.You're in on the solar bandwagon. You're
missing out on that opportunity to I'mgonna move in with you. What do
you keep your house at? Soit's interesting because I've run so hot and

(05:48):
so cold, kind of like KatyPerry, okay, ice, but there's
like they're like no certain days likeI'm like, oh my gosh, I'm
freezing, so I'll keep it atseventy. But then like last night,
I'm like laying in bed and Igot silk satin sheets, so that's supposed
to keep you cool, I think, and I put it down to sixty
eight. That's freezy. But whenI had a roommate, he had it

(06:09):
at sixty five. I said,hold up, are you paying for this
AC bill? Because I don't thinkso buster, so I put it back
up. I'm just gonna be overhere quiet with my seventy eight degree thermostat
and still getting chills in my house? Is that what you put yours head?
Dude? I'm telling you right now, sixty eight degrees is our Seventy
eight degrees is cool? Yeah?Right, Wait till you're in the heat

(06:30):
of summer. You've been through thisonce already, So here Vegas. So
I don't know, but for me, if it's below seventy seven, yeah,
it's cold, damn the house.That's just because you're so used to
the hot the heat outside that whenyou come in it's jarring. If it's
sixty eight, it punched you inthe face. I guess I just like
getting punched in the face, LikeI'm like, I can see my breath

(06:50):
in sixty eight. My goodness.If you're listening on the Guy Hurt radio,
I hit the red microphone. Letme know what you keep the thermostat
out in the summer in your house? Because I know I'm not the only
weirdo that keeps it into seventy eight. Let's take a guess. It's let's
guess what Tony keeps his ass atthe house. Do you think he controls
it? Do you think the kidscontrol it? Well, they're home more
than he is. But I wouldsay just because he's at work all day,

(07:12):
I would say probably, I'm gonnasay seventy two. Oh no,
I'm gonna say seventy five. Yeah, yeah, I'll see. And I'm
gonna ask you this too, doyou have to do an odd number?
An even number because like I haveto always have to have like an even
number. I do that with mycar radio. It's gotta be an even
number. That's weird, right,But no, at home it's it looks
it depends on what I feel.Like. Last night, I was sleeping

(07:32):
on the couch just because I wantedto take a nap, and I started
getting cold. It was seventy eight, so I turned it to seventy nights.
But then it's like he's ticking upa degrees and it helps me,
you know, But I'm not OCDwhen it comes to that. It's how
I feel. Yeah, I guess. I guess I'm just trying to think
about my parents too, Like backhome in Michigan, I know they keep
it out like seventy two or seventy. I guess I'm just I guess I'm

(07:53):
just hot blooded. I'm gonna,yeah, next time I come over to
your house, and if it's sixtyeight, I'm gonna be like getting my
coat on and doing the hand rubbingthing to warm up or sixty eight degree
house. I kay ken. MaybeI'm going through menopause. Maybe that's why
