00:02:45,280 –> 00:03:23,919
of deviated prebot dum Well, Good evening, everybody. It is

61
00:03:23,960 –> 00:03:27,159
Alan Ray, Sunday Night with Alan Ray. Yet just heard

62
00:03:27,159 –> 00:03:30,000
in the Crease with Jeff great show, great show. Before that,

63
00:03:30,039 –> 00:03:32,759
you heard Cornymic Corn’s reading Room. Good to have him

64
00:03:32,800 –> 00:03:35,800
on Sunday nights too. Sunday nights on KLAUR and radio

65
00:03:35,919 –> 00:03:39,800
are really starting to I mean they’re taking shape. They’re here.

66
00:03:40,479 –> 00:03:43,639
If you’re not joining us on Sunday evening, shame on you.

67
00:03:44,360 –> 00:03:47,159
Shame on. You started out with just pretty much Jeff

68
00:03:47,199 –> 00:03:50,960
and I and we’ve grown and we’ve developed, and what

69
00:03:51,039 –> 00:03:54,680
a great time. It’s great. I missed y’all last week.

70
00:03:54,680 –> 00:03:59,639
I miss y’all. We had some technical difficulties, just didn’t

71
00:03:59,639 –> 00:04:09,639
cut it. High speed fiber internet is slowly creeping, slowly

72
00:04:09,680 –> 00:04:12,520
creeping to my house. It’s connected to the side of

73
00:04:12,520 –> 00:04:15,000
my house right now. Now we just have to get

74
00:04:15,080 –> 00:04:18,519
all of the things inside of the house and we

75
00:04:18,600 –> 00:04:20,800
have to get them hooked up to all the other things.

76
00:04:20,959 –> 00:04:25,000
So I’ve got high speed. I can’t wait. I really

77
00:04:25,000 –> 00:04:33,680
can’t wait. So, but an interesting week, kind of a

78
00:04:34,120 –> 00:04:35,839
kind of depressing when it worked. Not going to talk

79
00:04:35,879 –> 00:04:40,720
about that. We dodged a bullet. We dodged a bullet.

80
00:04:40,720 –> 00:04:43,920
Folks with a it looks like Hurricane Aaron is going

81
00:04:43,959 –> 00:04:47,000
to go on up the coast. What were they calling that?

82
00:04:47,040 –> 00:04:49,040
A fish hurricane. It’s going to be a fish hurricane.

83
00:04:49,600 –> 00:04:53,319
All the fish are going to drown. It looks like

84
00:04:53,360 –> 00:04:55,920
it’s going to miss us. We may get some riptides,

85
00:04:56,000 –> 00:05:00,399
we may get some rain on the coast, but welcome

86
00:05:00,439 –> 00:05:05,360
to hurricane season twenty twenty five. They got me thinking,

87
00:05:05,800 –> 00:05:07,759
I’m not going to dwell the whole show on this

88
00:05:07,959 –> 00:05:10,959
because I’ve got other things I want to talk about.

89
00:05:12,120 –> 00:05:15,920
But two things. Number one, and I’ve preached this ad nauseum.

90
00:05:15,959 –> 00:05:17,720
I’ve preached this, have a bug out bag, ready, a

91
00:05:17,720 –> 00:05:20,360
bug out bag. I’ve never been in a hurricane, Okay,

92
00:05:21,360 –> 00:05:24,319
but I still learned a lot of lessons in twenty

93
00:05:24,399 –> 00:05:29,480
twenty four, unsettling lessons. Lessons that I had to rethink

94
00:05:29,560 –> 00:05:32,199
some of the things I did not on the bugging

95
00:05:32,199 –> 00:05:36,079
out part. The bugging out part, that’s pretty good. You know,

96
00:05:36,160 –> 00:05:41,120
access to water, a way to pull clean drinking water,

97
00:05:41,160 –> 00:05:42,959
one of those life straws. A couple of those life

98
00:05:42,959 –> 00:05:50,120
straws are cheap, very efficient water purification tablets, things like

99
00:05:50,160 –> 00:05:56,920
that fire starting equipment, as already’s infamous. His Now everybody

100
00:05:56,920 –> 00:06:00,399
should have one of the backpack pencil sharpeners. Those those

101
00:06:00,399 –> 00:06:04,079
titanium pencil sharpeners, great little deals. I mean, you could

102
00:06:04,079 –> 00:06:06,959
take a stick and these things are just killer. You

103
00:06:06,959 –> 00:06:10,800
could make all kinds of little fire starting stuff on

104
00:06:10,879 –> 00:06:14,639
them and light them up. Your bug out bag should

105
00:06:14,680 –> 00:06:17,480
be complete. We are heading into winter. If you’re in

106
00:06:17,519 –> 00:06:19,519
the north, if you’re in the snow zone, your bug

107
00:06:19,519 –> 00:06:22,959
out bags should be taking shape. I know it’s been hot,

108
00:06:23,040 –> 00:06:25,199
I know it’s been nasty. I know it has been

109
00:06:25,720 –> 00:06:28,279
ninety one degrees in the state of Michigan. But you

110
00:06:28,279 –> 00:06:31,279
should be thinking this far enough ahead and getting ready

111
00:06:31,319 –> 00:06:34,240
so it doesn’t catch off guard. If you’re on the coast,

112
00:06:34,399 –> 00:06:37,639
if you’re anywhere where this rain’s gonna hit, this should

113
00:06:37,639 –> 00:06:40,199
already be done. And when they tell you to leave,

114
00:06:40,560 –> 00:06:45,079
don’t be arrogant, don’t be stupid. If you’re on the coast,

115
00:06:45,120 –> 00:06:47,720
within side of the water, get out, go away, Go

116
00:06:47,800 –> 00:06:54,560
do something else. Drowned dead people are not all that tough,

117
00:06:56,839 –> 00:07:02,040
you know, live to fight another day. By the way, guys, hey,

118
00:07:02,439 –> 00:07:05,839
thanks everybody in the chat room. We got political junkie,

119
00:07:05,959 –> 00:07:08,519
politics junkie in the chatroom. We got already in the

120
00:07:08,600 –> 00:07:10,399
chat room. We got Jeff you just heard in the

121
00:07:10,439 –> 00:07:13,279
crease in the chat room. Thanks guys for hanging out

122
00:07:13,279 –> 00:07:17,920
with me tonight. The bug out bag should already be there.

123
00:07:19,720 –> 00:07:23,600
I’ve preached them ad nauseam. I’ll preach them again. I’ll

124
00:07:23,639 –> 00:07:27,079
have stuff. But what we found is a lot of

125
00:07:27,120 –> 00:07:33,759
places because of the result of last year’s hurricanes, we’re

126
00:07:33,800 –> 00:07:36,800
forced forced, du no fault of their own, to bug in.

127
00:07:39,120 –> 00:07:44,600
By bugging in, I mean staying home, hunkering down, preparing

128
00:07:44,879 –> 00:07:50,959
for what’s to come. And it’s a lot like bugging out,

129
00:07:51,000 –> 00:07:55,079
except you’ve got the luxury of being able to store more,

130
00:07:55,439 –> 00:08:00,959
more food, more water, more essentials, freeze dry. I had food.

131
00:08:01,000 –> 00:08:04,199
I recommend you know, for lengthy periods of times, several

132
00:08:04,319 –> 00:08:09,560
several meals of freeze dried food per person. The calories

133
00:08:09,639 –> 00:08:13,879
might get you through ways again to filtrate, purify water,

134
00:08:15,720 –> 00:08:21,480
fire starters, ways to boil water. But one of the

135
00:08:21,480 –> 00:08:24,240
things I noticed last year at the hurricane season, some

136
00:08:24,680 –> 00:08:28,480
things that were a brutal lesson a lot of the

137
00:08:28,519 –> 00:08:31,920
people up in the hills North Carolina, Mountains of North Carolina,

138
00:08:32,320 –> 00:08:34,679
up in Tennessee. And you didn’t hear much about the

139
00:08:34,759 –> 00:08:37,360
hills of Tennessee, but it’s all right there. They all

140
00:08:37,399 –> 00:08:46,840
suffered the same. They had their food, they had their water.

141
00:08:46,879 –> 00:08:49,440
They are the essentials. The ones that were above the

142
00:08:49,799 –> 00:08:53,120
floodplain or were affected by it were out of entered,

143
00:08:53,240 –> 00:08:58,360
out of power, out of power for days, weeks, months,

144
00:09:00,080 –> 00:09:04,799
And it made me rethink my my energy scheme for

145
00:09:05,159 –> 00:09:07,960
bugging in. Yes, I have a generator. I have a

146
00:09:07,960 –> 00:09:09,960
massive generator. I have a generator that will run this

147
00:09:10,000 –> 00:09:13,480
whole stinking house. And I have run that baby for days.

148
00:09:13,480 –> 00:09:15,720
I gotta get it in for some uh some maintenance.

149
00:09:15,919 –> 00:09:18,759
If there’s one thing I want one hundred percent at

150
00:09:18,799 –> 00:09:21,879
all times, just my my gas generator, sixty five hundred watts.

151
00:09:22,440 –> 00:09:26,399
It’s got about four one twenty outlets, a big two

152
00:09:26,440 –> 00:09:30,120
twenty outlets. It will run things. Trust me, it does

153
00:09:30,200 –> 00:09:35,399
run things. But I added to that. I added to that,

154
00:09:35,399 –> 00:09:38,720
and I’m gonna tell you why. I added two power banks.

155
00:09:39,120 –> 00:09:41,320
I added a blue Eddy AC one eighty and a

156
00:09:41,360 –> 00:09:45,679
blue Eddy EB three A. The AC one eighty is

157
00:09:45,720 –> 00:09:48,720
pretty powerful. It’s pretty good. It’ll it’ll run a refrigerator

158
00:09:48,759 –> 00:09:55,039
all night. It’ll give you lights all night long. Of course,

159
00:09:55,120 –> 00:09:57,360
you know, if you’ve played your cards right and you

160
00:09:57,440 –> 00:09:59,639
have solar lights, you have things like that. You don’t

161
00:09:59,639 –> 00:10:05,120
really need them, but you have access to electricity all

162
00:10:05,240 –> 00:10:07,600
night long. The EB three A is tiny. It’s a

163
00:10:07,600 –> 00:10:11,200
little bogger. I can run a ham radio on that

164
00:10:11,279 –> 00:10:14,639
a low powered ten watt my ZEIGU X sixty one

165
00:10:14,720 –> 00:10:17,919
hundred or my G ninety twenty watts. I can run

166
00:10:18,120 –> 00:10:23,200
that radio on that little EB three A for hours,

167
00:10:23,759 –> 00:10:29,600
hours without running it down. And that’s transmitting. That’s that’s

168
00:10:29,679 –> 00:10:32,679
pushing it pretty hard. That’s transmitting. That’s not just sitting

169
00:10:32,759 –> 00:10:36,120
listening to a radio. So I added those and I’m

170
00:10:36,159 –> 00:10:39,000
probably going to get the next size up, the A

171
00:10:39,159 –> 00:10:42,000
C two hundred, because I think that AC two hundred

172
00:10:42,039 –> 00:10:45,320
will actually if I needed to on a pinch run

173
00:10:45,399 –> 00:10:48,039
my well pump, I’m gonna get one because I got

174
00:10:48,120 –> 00:10:50,159
a half horse well pump. Let me let me tell

175
00:10:50,159 –> 00:10:52,120
you my thought process here. And you may or may

176
00:10:52,120 –> 00:10:53,399
not live in the country, you may not have a

177
00:10:53,399 –> 00:10:56,320
well pump, but my thought process is I want something

178
00:10:58,559 –> 00:11:01,960
in a power bank, non gas generator to kick off

179
00:11:02,000 –> 00:11:04,559
that well pop. And I’ll tell you why. Between the

180
00:11:04,559 –> 00:11:06,559
one eighty and I’m going to get that two hundred,

181
00:11:06,559 –> 00:11:08,320
probably this year. At some point in time, the EB

182
00:11:08,440 –> 00:11:12,720
three A, along with the gas generator. After a while,

183
00:11:12,919 –> 00:11:15,200
gas was running out up in the hills. After a while,

184
00:11:15,320 –> 00:11:18,559
people couldn’t get to gas stations. People couldn’t get to

185
00:11:18,720 –> 00:11:21,879
areas where they had gasoline to run their gas generators.

186
00:11:21,879 –> 00:11:24,840
They were failing one a lot of them had, and

187
00:11:24,919 –> 00:11:28,360
what was being passed out by benevolent charities, people who

188
00:11:28,360 –> 00:11:32,080
really knew what they were doing. And one of our

189
00:11:32,120 –> 00:11:35,799
own mutual friends of Kaylaarron Radio, who you know, she’s

190
00:11:35,879 –> 00:11:42,159
always always on Twitter on x Anna, she had that

191
00:11:42,240 –> 00:11:44,799
Blueoody AC one eighty and I asked her about I say, hey,

192
00:11:44,840 –> 00:11:46,480
is that is that AC one eighty? She goes, yeah,

193
00:11:46,480 –> 00:11:48,720
sure is. Somebody gave one to me with a solar panel.

194
00:11:48,759 –> 00:11:53,559
I’ve been living off of it for weeks. I was like,

195
00:11:53,600 –> 00:11:57,720
that’s genius. You know I already had one, But this

196
00:11:57,759 –> 00:12:00,960
is why I added these things. So I’ve added the

197
00:12:00,960 –> 00:12:03,399
blue Eddy AC one eight. I’ve added the EB three

198
00:12:03,519 –> 00:12:08,360
A between those two. If you don’t need heat, and

199
00:12:09,080 –> 00:12:12,559
you know you can shut things down, go quiet, go

200
00:12:12,799 –> 00:12:17,919
silent like you’ll want to eventually, that will give you

201
00:12:18,240 –> 00:12:20,720
enough energy to you know, you can run your fridge

202
00:12:20,759 –> 00:12:24,000
all night. You could take turns with your fridge and

203
00:12:24,039 –> 00:12:26,120
your freezer, you know, go back and forth, plug them in. Yeah,

204
00:12:26,120 –> 00:12:28,799
it’s gonna be a pain in the butt. I’m seriously

205
00:12:28,840 –> 00:12:32,240
thinking I’m going to get a bigger generator just to

206
00:12:32,600 –> 00:12:35,000
go full house, you know, and there’s not a lot.

207
00:12:35,080 –> 00:12:36,440
I don’t have to have a lot of electricity in

208
00:12:36,480 –> 00:12:38,480
this house. I can run just about everything and it

209
00:12:38,559 –> 00:12:41,399
barely bogs down that gas generators. But I want just

210
00:12:41,519 –> 00:12:47,000
enough where if I need to go silent, I’ll have

211
00:12:47,039 –> 00:12:53,320
this stuff at my disposal with a couple of solar

212
00:12:53,399 –> 00:12:55,879
panels that add up to two hundred watts, because both

213
00:12:55,879 –> 00:12:59,279
of these blue eddies that I have here, they go

214
00:12:59,320 –> 00:13:01,200
two hundred wats. That’s what you can charge them with.

215
00:13:01,600 –> 00:13:04,320
And you can run those things off of the solar

216
00:13:04,360 –> 00:13:07,440
panel along with the charger, and it’s passed through pass through,

217
00:13:07,480 –> 00:13:09,720
so you can go solar charger. You know. You can

218
00:13:09,759 –> 00:13:13,480
have your solar panel out into your battery bank into

219
00:13:13,519 –> 00:13:16,159
whatever you want to run all day long, and it’ll

220
00:13:16,200 –> 00:13:19,120
last extra extra long time if you’re charging it while

221
00:13:19,120 –> 00:13:23,960
you’re using it. So I’m recommending that if you’ve got

222
00:13:24,000 –> 00:13:25,720
the money to spare, pick you up a couple of

223
00:13:25,720 –> 00:13:27,600
these little power banks and a couple of sold you know,

224
00:13:27,600 –> 00:13:32,000
two hundred bots worth of solar panels, because when the

225
00:13:32,039 –> 00:13:35,879
gas runs out, you’re gonna need something. And the blue Eddy.

226
00:13:36,159 –> 00:13:38,200
The reason I recommend those, and I don’t get paid

227
00:13:38,200 –> 00:13:40,440
to recommend them. The reason I do recommend them is

228
00:13:40,559 –> 00:13:45,600
they are you can charge them a lot more. They

229
00:13:45,639 –> 00:13:48,840
have several more charging you know, over their lifetimes, they

230
00:13:48,879 –> 00:13:52,519
go a lot longer. They also have you know, a

231
00:13:52,519 –> 00:13:54,799
lot more information. They got a phone app you can use.

232
00:13:54,840 –> 00:13:56,039
You know, you can roll over in the middle of

233
00:13:56,039 –> 00:14:00,240
the night and see how much power you have. So

234
00:14:00,279 –> 00:14:03,080
I’m adding that I have added these to my collection

235
00:14:04,200 –> 00:14:06,000
and I’ve already used them. I’ve already used them. We’ve

236
00:14:06,039 –> 00:14:08,240
had minor power outages where it’s just like, you know,

237
00:14:08,279 –> 00:14:11,080
don’t worry about My wife loves them because she’s not

238
00:14:11,159 –> 00:14:13,320
out there trying to pour gas in the generator trying

239
00:14:13,320 –> 00:14:16,000
to get it fired up, pulling on that cord. You

240
00:14:16,159 –> 00:14:18,200
just plug stuff in and you just push the little

241
00:14:18,200 –> 00:14:24,919
button and things turn on. And she likes that emergency comms.

242
00:14:24,960 –> 00:14:26,720
I’ve updated that a little bit too for the bug

243
00:14:26,720 –> 00:14:30,039
in station. And guys, I know some of you tuning in,

244
00:14:30,039 –> 00:14:31,639
if you’re tuning in for the first time, Okay, I

245
00:14:31,639 –> 00:14:34,639
go a little bit prepperish on this show. Guys in

246
00:14:34,679 –> 00:14:37,159
the chat, I know it’s a shock to you, but

247
00:14:37,240 –> 00:14:39,480
I do tend to get a little prepperish. I just

248
00:14:39,519 –> 00:14:42,799
do as far as coms go. Yeah, you know me,

249
00:14:44,080 –> 00:14:49,360
I just a little I’ve got coms, I got communications.

250
00:14:49,399 –> 00:14:50,440
I’m a ham radio operator.

251
00:14:50,480 –> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 7: You know.

252
00:14:50,639 –> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 5: I’ve got all the things here. But I’m talking about

253
00:14:52,440 –> 00:14:55,919
you right now. You should have at your disposal an

254
00:14:55,919 –> 00:15:03,879
AM FM, shortwave single side b and capable radio. I’ve

255
00:15:03,879 –> 00:15:08,039
got a text on PL eight eighty and it’s absolutely phenomenal.

256
00:15:08,559 –> 00:15:10,720
I did buy one of these here well back, I’ve

257
00:15:10,720 –> 00:15:14,360
all one of these Chinese radios. It was pretty cool.

258
00:15:14,799 –> 00:15:20,240
They boasted a pretty good boast. It’s AMFM, short wave,

259
00:15:20,399 –> 00:15:24,320
single side band, all the things, and it’s got internet access.

260
00:15:24,360 –> 00:15:27,320
You can do internet radio and all that. I’m gonna

261
00:15:27,320 –> 00:15:29,840
be totally honest with you. The internet radio freaking rocks.

262
00:15:30,080 –> 00:15:36,080
FM radio rocks. Short wave kind of sucks. AM definitely sucks.

263
00:15:36,159 –> 00:15:37,840
I don’t like either one of them on this, but

264
00:15:38,679 –> 00:15:41,559
it was worth the money because the internet radio is

265
00:15:41,639 –> 00:15:44,720
pretty cool. I listened to a lot of it. But

266
00:15:44,919 –> 00:15:47,559
the text sun is really sensitive. The text on gets

267
00:15:47,559 –> 00:15:50,600
you a decent single side band. Learn how to use it.

268
00:15:51,039 –> 00:15:54,679
You will hear people in what they call emergency nets.

269
00:15:55,240 –> 00:16:00,759
You will hear them communicating with each other. Now that said,

270
00:16:01,600 –> 00:16:04,240
what else a CB? Sure? Why not? Why not a

271
00:16:04,279 –> 00:16:08,840
citizens band radio? Why not a CB four watts? You

272
00:16:08,879 –> 00:16:11,240
get the antenna out there a little bit, get it

273
00:16:11,320 –> 00:16:15,320
up above the trees. Learn how to use it. It’s just

274
00:16:15,360 –> 00:16:17,519
like a HAM radio. It’s this is eleven meter. Learn

275
00:16:17,559 –> 00:16:20,039
how to use it. Set up, pre set up, set

276
00:16:20,120 –> 00:16:23,039
up before things happen. A little community of people that

277
00:16:23,120 –> 00:16:25,840
have them too, and and get on them once a week,

278
00:16:26,279 –> 00:16:28,120
do a quick check, do a little what they call

279
00:16:28,159 –> 00:16:30,080
a net where you just check in, say hey, how

280
00:16:30,120 –> 00:16:32,600
you doing, blah blah blah, these things working, Yes, they’re working.

281
00:16:33,360 –> 00:16:39,559
Make yourself a little network. There’s no reason why you

282
00:16:39,559 –> 00:16:43,600
should have a CB. The new fmcbs sound absolutely phenomenal,

283
00:16:44,519 –> 00:16:46,080
not to mention the fact, if you really want to

284
00:16:46,080 –> 00:16:49,799
get into it, the fccs now allows you to go

285
00:16:49,919 –> 00:16:55,120
single sideband on a CB with twelve watts. Just for reference,

286
00:16:55,240 –> 00:16:59,279
twelve watts. Ah that X sixty one hundred I have

287
00:16:59,480 –> 00:17:02,159
is only ten watts. At zaygu X sixty one hundred

288
00:17:02,360 –> 00:17:05,039
HF I have is only ten watts. And I’ve talked

289
00:17:05,039 –> 00:17:07,039
to people in Oklahoma and all over the world in it.

290
00:17:09,119 –> 00:17:12,000
A CB will not get you out that far. It’s local,

291
00:17:12,160 –> 00:17:14,960
the communication is local. But twelve wats in a single

292
00:17:15,000 –> 00:17:18,079
sign band is a lot farther than four watts on

293
00:17:18,119 –> 00:17:23,200
AM or FM. But nonetheless, in a small community, if

294
00:17:23,200 –> 00:17:25,079
you live in a couple of blocks away, you got

295
00:17:25,119 –> 00:17:27,559
four or five people who’ve got your six and want

296
00:17:27,599 –> 00:17:31,039
to take participate. Get a bunch of CB radios and

297
00:17:31,160 –> 00:17:36,480
learn how to use them. It’s free, they’re yours. That’s

298
00:17:36,519 –> 00:17:39,079
why they’re called citizens band. You want to get that

299
00:17:39,160 –> 00:17:41,200
cheap bowt fang, go ahead, get that cheap bowl fang.

300
00:17:41,839 –> 00:17:45,039
If it’s an emergency, you can use it. You can

301
00:17:45,160 –> 00:17:48,480
use it. In North Carolina, people who were not Ham

302
00:17:48,559 –> 00:17:51,119
radio operators at all were calling in on these repeaters

303
00:17:52,000 –> 00:17:53,759
and they were trying to find loved ones, trying to

304
00:17:53,759 –> 00:17:56,720
figure out what’s going on. They didn’t have a license,

305
00:17:56,720 –> 00:18:01,240
but it was an emergency. In the FCC definitively says,

306
00:18:01,359 –> 00:18:04,960
if it’s an emergency situation, you can use Ham radio frequencies.

307
00:18:06,119 –> 00:18:08,519
I still recommend you at least get a tech license.

308
00:18:08,799 –> 00:18:11,359
I still recommend you get licensed up because then you

309
00:18:11,400 –> 00:18:15,640
can practice openly while things are calm, preparing for thing

310
00:18:15,839 –> 00:18:20,000
for emergencies. Get a community, going get friends in the

311
00:18:20,000 –> 00:18:26,319
ham radio community, learn how to communicate, so you’re ready,

312
00:18:28,920 –> 00:18:34,160
but be ready nonetheless, at least have a CB. And finally,

313
00:18:34,440 –> 00:18:37,799
here’s a couple of ones that surface that I really

314
00:18:37,799 –> 00:18:40,519
didn’t think about. Well, I’ve preached about getting a Noah

315
00:18:40,519 –> 00:18:43,319
Weather radio. Get the Noah Weather radio. There are a

316
00:18:43,319 –> 00:18:46,000
lot more sophisticated nowadays. They can dial in right to

317
00:18:46,160 –> 00:18:50,680
your area, right to your zip code, right to your

318
00:18:50,880 –> 00:18:54,599
general vicinity, and they won’t go off. You know, if

319
00:18:54,680 –> 00:18:57,839
something’s going on three counties away, that doesn’t go off

320
00:18:57,880 –> 00:19:02,039
obnoxiously and wake out of a dead sleep. It only

321
00:19:02,079 –> 00:19:05,079
goes off. To get emergency right in your area. Get one.

322
00:19:06,079 –> 00:19:09,079
They’re not that expensive. What fifty bucks I think. But

323
00:19:09,160 –> 00:19:11,079
here’s what I never thought of. And this is what

324
00:19:11,200 –> 00:19:15,119
happened last year with and I actually watched a video

325
00:19:15,160 –> 00:19:18,039
by a guy who he was running on battery backup.

326
00:19:18,720 –> 00:19:22,160
He had a starlink internet access and he made a

327
00:19:22,279 –> 00:19:24,480
YouTube video and he says, it’s something I’d never thought

328
00:19:24,480 –> 00:19:28,240
would happen, says, the two best forms of communication I

329
00:19:28,240 –> 00:19:30,240
have right now. He was stuck in North Carolina in

330
00:19:30,279 –> 00:19:33,039
the hills, hadn’t had power for days, says the two

331
00:19:33,519 –> 00:19:37,759
best communication items I’ve had this whole time are CBE

332
00:19:37,920 –> 00:19:44,039
radio and an old analog police scanner. He goes, none

333
00:19:44,079 –> 00:19:45,960
of the digital is working up here. All of the

334
00:19:46,000 –> 00:19:51,960
emergency places have gone analog, and getting the news, I’m

335
00:19:52,039 –> 00:19:54,759
using the scanner. He goes. I’ve had all the police

336
00:19:54,839 –> 00:20:00,119
channels and their backup analog stations in this notebook. I

337
00:20:00,160 –> 00:20:02,400
programmed them in and that’s all I’m here. I’m hearing

338
00:20:02,400 –> 00:20:07,599
all the traffic. You can buy these analog scanners. You

339
00:20:07,599 –> 00:20:10,279
can go to swap meets, you can go to eBay

340
00:20:10,400 –> 00:20:12,799
places like that, and you can get you a Uni

341
00:20:12,839 –> 00:20:16,640
Den eight hundred XLT, which used to be the king,

342
00:20:17,759 –> 00:20:21,079
the king of police scanners before they all went digital

343
00:20:21,200 –> 00:20:24,440
and trunking. I have one sitting right off here to

344
00:20:24,480 –> 00:20:27,519
my left. I have all the airban frequencies in it.

345
00:20:28,200 –> 00:20:33,680
But but I also have a printed copy of all

346
00:20:33,720 –> 00:20:40,680
the emergency backup channels for all the police, rescue, state, federal, FEMA.

347
00:20:41,920 –> 00:20:44,160
I can program them in there in an instant and

348
00:20:44,240 –> 00:20:46,680
run this bad boy and listen to what’s going on.

349
00:20:48,680 –> 00:20:52,559
Real cheap effective way to have on hand and do

350
00:20:52,599 –> 00:20:54,640
what I did. Like I said, the airban frequencies, that’s

351
00:20:54,680 –> 00:20:56,480
a blast. I just sits there all day and I

352
00:20:56,640 –> 00:21:00,359
you know, I’m in Detroit Metro’s flight path. I listen

353
00:21:00,400 –> 00:21:02,920
to planes fly over all day, sometimes sitting here working

354
00:21:02,960 –> 00:21:07,960
at my desk. But if things go south, it’ll only

355
00:21:08,000 –> 00:21:10,720
take me about five minutes to program all the emergency

356
00:21:10,920 –> 00:21:15,160
protocols in here, all of the channels that they use analog.

357
00:21:15,240 –> 00:21:19,160
When digital goes down, and digital does go down, you

358
00:21:19,240 –> 00:21:22,319
just think about it. If you lose Internet on a

359
00:21:22,359 –> 00:21:25,920
wide scale, you lose cell towers on a wide scale,

360
00:21:26,319 –> 00:21:29,960
you lose all your trunking frequencies. They go down, so

361
00:21:30,000 –> 00:21:33,200
they have to go back up. You can go to

362
00:21:33,279 –> 00:21:36,559
radio reference dot com and get all of your local frequencies.

363
00:21:36,599 –> 00:21:38,839
Write them down on a nice little book, print them out,

364
00:21:39,119 –> 00:21:43,319
print them out, put them in a folder someplace next

365
00:21:43,319 –> 00:21:47,000
to your scanner where you can find them. And if

366
00:21:47,039 –> 00:21:49,079
the proverbial do doo, it’s the fan. You can punch

367
00:21:49,079 –> 00:21:51,680
all these things in and you will have information when

368
00:21:51,720 –> 00:21:56,440
nobody else will. So there you have it. That is

369
00:21:56,480 –> 00:22:02,200
my updated bugging. In additions that you should be looking at, Yeah,

370
00:22:02,359 –> 00:22:06,079
have the food, have the water, you know, even the

371
00:22:06,079 –> 00:22:09,400
FEMA site, even the FEMA site has a pretty good

372
00:22:09,440 –> 00:22:11,920
comprehensive list of things you should have on hand during

373
00:22:11,920 –> 00:22:19,319
an emergency. They’re not bad, but hearing what’s going on

374
00:22:19,559 –> 00:22:21,960
flying blind in the middle of a situation. I can’t

375
00:22:21,960 –> 00:22:28,119
think of anything worse than being going blind communication wise,

376
00:22:28,160 –> 00:22:30,880
in the middle of an emergency, being stuck up in

377
00:22:30,920 –> 00:22:35,200
those hills, not knowing what was going on, being there

378
00:22:35,240 –> 00:22:38,240
in Florida when that other the next hurricane hit knocked

379
00:22:38,240 –> 00:22:41,039
out a whole bunch of on the west coast of Florida,

380
00:22:41,079 –> 00:22:43,319
knocked out a whole bunch of cities, cell phones and

381
00:22:43,319 –> 00:22:46,240
stuff like that in that area. I can’t think of

382
00:22:46,319 –> 00:22:49,359
anything worse outside of starving and freezing to death. If

383
00:22:49,440 –> 00:22:55,119
I’m bugging in, then flying blind in a situation, no communication,

384
00:22:55,400 –> 00:22:58,160
no not hearing anything of what’s going on in the

385
00:22:58,200 –> 00:23:02,400
outside world. So I can make rational decisions based on

386
00:23:02,559 –> 00:23:11,759
the knowledge. So hopefully, guys in chat, you know, I’m

387
00:23:11,799 –> 00:23:15,000
preaching to the choir in chat. I know, I really

388
00:23:15,039 –> 00:23:20,119
do know these guys already know we talk. Jeff, you know,

389
00:23:20,200 –> 00:23:22,319
I know he’s uh, he worked on a lot of stuff.

390
00:23:23,119 –> 00:23:25,880
I’m getting ready. But the bugging in parts a little

391
00:23:25,880 –> 00:23:31,000
bit different. The bugging in part is, you know, it’s

392
00:23:31,039 –> 00:23:35,200
it’s things you should have anyways. It’s long term. It’s

393
00:23:35,240 –> 00:23:39,200
like national global emergency where you’re you know, you you’ve

394
00:23:39,279 –> 00:23:45,079
got to survive, and you also have to think in different,

395
00:23:46,079 –> 00:23:49,759
you know, different timeframes. You have to think three days,

396
00:23:50,880 –> 00:23:52,880
you have to think three weeks, you have to think

397
00:23:52,920 –> 00:23:56,279
three months, and you have to think three years. What

398
00:23:56,400 –> 00:23:59,839
is your long term plan? Do you have a live

399
00:24:00,240 –> 00:24:04,880
ary of printed books of all of your great grandparents’

400
00:24:04,960 –> 00:24:08,960
knowledge that they had, great great grandparents, knowledge that they

401
00:24:09,039 –> 00:24:16,720
had pertaining to growing food, making clothes, making lie soap

402
00:24:16,920 –> 00:24:20,720
with ashes and stuff from fires, all of the things

403
00:24:20,759 –> 00:24:23,960
that we feel we don’t need anymore as a society

404
00:24:23,960 –> 00:24:27,119
because we live in an instant society. We live in

405
00:24:27,119 –> 00:24:31,960
a society of instant gratification of just on time delivery.

406
00:24:33,480 –> 00:24:37,039
Last year should have been a pretty good signal, flare

407
00:24:37,119 –> 00:24:41,319
that you need to think about these things. Nobody, I

408
00:24:41,359 –> 00:24:44,680
guarantee you, nobody in North Carolina in the summer of

409
00:24:44,759 –> 00:24:46,960
twenty twenty fourth thought about what was going to happen.

410
00:24:49,359 –> 00:24:53,640
Yet there they were, staying warm, staying cool, all the

411
00:24:53,720 –> 00:25:01,839
stuff bugging in let’s face it, folks, You know I

412
00:25:01,880 –> 00:25:04,039
said this during the Biden administration because I didn’t trust

413
00:25:04,039 –> 00:25:06,599
any of them. And it turns out I was completely right,

414
00:25:06,720 –> 00:25:10,200
completely I nailed it that they were heading towards World

415
00:25:10,279 –> 00:25:12,640
War three and they were too stupid to know what

416
00:25:12,720 –> 00:25:16,559
to do about it. We’re not done with that yet,

417
00:25:16,759 –> 00:25:24,319
we’re not over it. You have and I don’t. I’m trying,

418
00:25:24,400 –> 00:25:26,119
and I’ll tell you why in a little bit. But

419
00:25:26,200 –> 00:25:32,480
you have our president president putin, you have Zelensky, a scammer.

420
00:25:33,759 –> 00:25:37,319
They’re all meeting back and forth trying to end this conflict.

421
00:25:38,519 –> 00:25:43,440
You’ve got you’ve got bad players right here in the

422
00:25:43,440 –> 00:25:45,799
good old us of A who don’t want that conflict

423
00:25:46,000 –> 00:25:49,119
ended because they’re making money. They’re making kickbacks on it.

424
00:25:49,119 –> 00:25:53,319
They’re invested in the war machine, and they’re cleaning up

425
00:25:53,640 –> 00:25:59,319
when there’s violence. And now I read that they there’s

426
00:25:59,359 –> 00:26:02,839
going to be europe being leaders coming over with Zelensky

427
00:26:02,920 –> 00:26:06,359
this time. Oh, they’re gonna show that Donald Trump guy

428
00:26:06,400 –> 00:26:16,519
a thing or two. Should be funny. So it’s just

429
00:26:16,519 –> 00:26:18,279
one of those deals where we’re not out of the

430
00:26:18,279 –> 00:26:24,960
woods yet. We really are not. Let’s face it, what

431
00:26:25,000 –> 00:26:28,319
this current administration is doing right now, it’s pissing off

432
00:26:28,359 –> 00:26:30,519
a lot of people in Europe. It’s pissing off a

433
00:26:30,559 –> 00:26:33,000
lot of people in Asia. It’s definitely pissing off a

434
00:26:33,039 –> 00:26:37,440
lot of people in Russia and Ukraine. They all might

435
00:26:37,480 –> 00:26:41,359
pull together and decide to take America out. They all might,

436
00:26:41,480 –> 00:26:43,960
just seven or eight of them pull together and decide

437
00:26:44,000 –> 00:26:46,759
to come after the United States and invade this country.

438
00:26:46,839 –> 00:26:49,880
You don’t know. It would be stupid, it would be foolheartedly.

439
00:26:50,680 –> 00:26:56,720
They’d be like shooting ducks in a barrel. But they

440
00:26:56,759 –> 00:27:00,559
might try. You never know. You don’t know what tomorrow

441
00:27:00,599 –> 00:27:04,799
is going to do. So be ready. You don’t have

442
00:27:04,839 –> 00:27:06,759
to dig holes, you don’t have to do you know,

443
00:27:06,920 –> 00:27:11,079
be crazy about it. But I have a plan, have

444
00:27:11,119 –> 00:27:13,880
a plan, have provisions on hand that could cover you

445
00:27:14,039 –> 00:27:16,880
up to a month. Ninety nine And I’ve said this before,

446
00:27:16,920 –> 00:27:20,440
I’ll say it again, ninety nine percent of all emergencies

447
00:27:21,880 –> 00:27:24,559
ninety nine percent. It’s a rarity that you have an

448
00:27:24,559 –> 00:27:32,839
emergency in your area that lasts more than thirty days. Yeah,

449
00:27:32,839 –> 00:27:34,880
I heard that too, Jeff says. I heard someone tonight

450
00:27:34,960 –> 00:27:38,119
mentioned you may live forever, but relish the now. That’s

451
00:27:38,160 –> 00:27:44,160
exactly it. And don’t don’t fret and stew and have

452
00:27:44,200 –> 00:27:48,000
anxieties over the future, but be prepared for the future,

453
00:27:49,720 –> 00:27:54,319
be an asset, not a liability. Reach the bottom of

454
00:27:54,359 –> 00:27:57,039
the hour. My god, this just goes by fast.

455
00:27:58,000 –> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 4: You know.

456
00:27:58,200 –> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 5: I miss one week and it’s like, ah, what am

457
00:28:01,200 –> 00:28:03,880
I going to talk about? And guys, I’m gonna tell

458
00:28:03,880 –> 00:28:06,160
you this before I go to break. I’ve been having

459
00:28:06,160 –> 00:28:09,519
a heck of a time. I don’t get on Twitter

460
00:28:09,519 –> 00:28:12,759
as much as I used to. I don’t really listen

461
00:28:12,799 –> 00:28:15,400
to the news much anymore. I get up in the morning,

462
00:28:15,480 –> 00:28:18,119
I look out my window, I look out my door

463
00:28:18,160 –> 00:28:20,119
with my cup of coffee, I walk out onto my

464
00:28:20,240 –> 00:28:25,640
patio and things are going all right. The skys aren’t

465
00:28:26,119 –> 00:28:29,880
glowing with nuclear haze. They are kind of hazy with

466
00:28:30,079 –> 00:28:37,319
Canadian secondhand smoke. But whatever, the economy’s smoothing out. I know,

467
00:28:37,640 –> 00:28:41,079
I know the news and all of the you know,

468
00:28:42,079 –> 00:28:46,359
usual people are like, oh, the economy is terrible. It’s

469
00:28:46,359 –> 00:28:50,279
been terrible for four years. I find it’s getting a

470
00:28:50,279 –> 00:28:52,759
little bit better these days. And you know, gas isn’t

471
00:28:52,799 –> 00:28:55,319
three twenty five three point fifty a gallon. It’s down

472
00:28:55,359 –> 00:28:57,559
to like two ninety two eighty. It’s easy to get.

473
00:28:59,119 –> 00:29:02,799
We don’t have stupid and shortages like we had. It’s

474
00:29:02,839 –> 00:29:09,519
all starting to smooth out, so I’m having a hard

475
00:29:09,519 –> 00:29:11,200
time coming up with content. I’m gonna tell you the

476
00:29:11,200 –> 00:29:12,440
truth and I’m gonna tell you what I did when

477
00:29:12,440 –> 00:29:15,720
I come back, because it’s really kind of funny and

478
00:29:15,960 –> 00:29:19,519
uh turned out to be one of the lamest things

479
00:29:19,519 –> 00:29:21,440
ever did. We’re gonna take a short break. We’ll be

480
00:29:21,519 –> 00:29:23,480
right back at Sunday night with Alan Ray. Don’t go anywhere.

481

Speaker 6: Hey Randy, what you’re doing?

491
00:30:17,480 –> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: Oh hey Dave, I’m just making a list of things

492
00:30:19,400 –> 00:30:20,759
that make me feel really really good.

493
00:30:20,920 –> 00:30:23,960

525
00:32:09,240 –> 00:32:12,720
I’ve got a microphone now, so welcome back. It is

526
00:32:12,720 –> 00:32:17,359
Sunday Night with Ellen Ray. It’s the show where we

527
00:32:17,400 –> 00:32:21,279
look around this ginormous blue ghetto rock that we are

528
00:32:21,359 –> 00:32:24,920
hurtling through space unimaginable speed. We asked the eternal question,

529
00:32:25,079 –> 00:32:33,480
do I think there’s some kind of deviated prebrit You

530
00:32:33,519 –> 00:32:35,279
want to know what I think? I think you’re all a

531
00:32:35,319 –> 00:32:36,640
bunch of deviated preverts.

532
00:32:36,720 –> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 4: What the white wide world of sportunes are going on?

533
00:32:40,039 –> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 7: Here?

534
00:32:40,759 –> 00:32:44,279
Speaker 5: There we go. That’s the line. That’s the question, although

535
00:32:44,279 –> 00:32:48,279
the deviated prevert one is probably pretty good too. And

536
00:32:48,319 –> 00:32:49,839
those of you who don’t know what that’s from, that’s

537
00:32:49,880 –> 00:32:53,160
doctor strange. My The guys. I’m sure the guys in

538
00:32:53,240 –> 00:32:55,960
Chad they all know what that quotes from Doctor Strangelove.

539
00:32:57,079 –> 00:32:58,880
But if you’re listening, if you’re one of the I

540
00:32:58,920 –> 00:33:01,079
don’t know twenty five people listening, that’s what that’s from.

541
00:33:01,480 –> 00:33:07,759
So I did this thing right. I went into artificial intelligence.

542
00:33:07,759 –> 00:33:12,359
I want into groc today and I asked the question, said, crock,

543
00:33:14,200 –> 00:33:21,279
give me the top ten news stories. Top ten news

544
00:33:21,319 –> 00:33:27,599
stories from the most reliable sources that have absolutely nothing

545
00:33:27,720 –> 00:33:35,599
to do with Donald Trump. And after an unusually kind

546
00:33:35,640 –> 00:33:40,880
of creepy pause, it spit out some news stories. Some

547
00:33:41,039 –> 00:33:47,759
of them interesting, not really. They’re all lame, every one

548
00:33:47,799 –> 00:33:52,480
of them, completely lame, completely lame. Ladies and gentlemen, You

549
00:33:52,640 –> 00:33:58,720
now know why, you know why. Now the media needs

550
00:33:59,480 –> 00:34:07,160
Donald Trump. The media is living and breathing Donald Trump. Yes,

551
00:34:07,880 –> 00:34:11,159
they hate him, Yes they want him. God, they don’t

552
00:34:11,199 –> 00:34:15,159
really want him gone. They want him to be humiliated

553
00:34:15,599 –> 00:34:18,639
and just keep the cameras on him while he trudges

554
00:34:18,800 –> 00:34:24,079
the world crying. They have to have him, They need

555
00:34:24,159 –> 00:34:28,320
him because the rest of the top stories are darn

556
00:34:28,400 –> 00:34:31,880
near completely lame. Let’s see what we got here, And

557
00:34:31,960 –> 00:34:34,800
we’ve already discussed the hurricane that wasn’t even part of it.

558
00:34:35,079 –> 00:34:39,599
Let’s see, Oh, here we go. Cloudburst search continues in

559
00:34:40,280 –> 00:34:44,400
Jamu and Kashmir. Apparently, and I don’t know if you

560
00:34:44,599 –> 00:34:49,840
saw this or not, there was this like horrible rainstorm

561
00:34:49,960 –> 00:34:53,840
in Kashmere and in the surrounding areas and there’s a

562
00:34:53,880 –> 00:34:56,079
lot of people missing. I didn’t hear anything about it.

563
00:34:57,039 –> 00:35:01,000
I haven’t heard anything about it in any newsburb. But

564
00:35:01,079 –> 00:35:05,159
apparently there there was a problem and it’s ongoing, and

565
00:35:05,199 –> 00:35:08,599
there’s people that are buried in mud. Was reiter So

566
00:35:08,840 –> 00:35:11,119
this is al jazeras you know, they for some reason

567
00:35:11,199 –> 00:35:14,079
thought this was trusted but whatever, so’s rescuers search for

568
00:35:14,159 –> 00:35:18,840
missing after devastating Kashmir cloud burst. So apparently it rained

569
00:35:18,840 –> 00:35:22,079
a lot. This is this, Remember guys, remember this is

570
00:35:22,119 –> 00:35:24,119
the top ten stories. They have nothing to do with

571
00:35:24,159 –> 00:35:31,239
Donald Trump. This is number one. You know, you pray

572
00:35:31,280 –> 00:35:33,079
for the people of that area because, I mean, this

573
00:35:33,119 –> 00:35:35,239
looks horrible the picture they show it look like it

574
00:35:35,239 –> 00:35:40,280
looks like they just got land based by rain and ongoing, says.

575
00:35:40,480 –> 00:35:43,159
Teams of disaster management officials, police and soldiers aided by

576
00:35:43,199 –> 00:35:46,840
local villagers are coming through devastated Himalayan village of Socidi.

577
00:35:47,719 –> 00:35:50,320
There’s also let’s see rescue operations Pauls over night. After

578
00:35:50,360 –> 00:35:53,719
successfully evacuating at least three hundred people on Thursday following

579
00:35:53,760 –> 00:35:57,159
a powerful cloud burst that triggered devastating floods and landslides,

580
00:36:00,239 –> 00:36:05,519
meteorologists are predicting more heavily rainfalls flooding the region. Okay, okay,

581
00:36:05,519 –> 00:36:08,880
that’s kind of interesting, all right, but that’s the top story.

582
00:36:09,079 –> 00:36:13,800
That’s the biggest one. Now for the weirdest one. You

583
00:36:13,840 –> 00:36:19,599
ready for this one? This is number two. You’re gonna

584
00:36:19,599 –> 00:36:22,119
love it. And I’m proving to you guys that the

585
00:36:22,159 –> 00:36:26,559
mainstream of the legacy media, the media that hates, hates

586
00:36:26,639 –> 00:36:31,800
our current president. They need him so very badly because

587
00:36:31,880 –> 00:36:35,719
they have nothing else. They have nothing else. There’s no

588
00:36:35,800 –> 00:36:41,119
boogeyman out there, there’s no news other than how horrible

589
00:36:41,480 –> 00:36:45,000
our current president is for them. This is number two.

590
00:36:46,639 –> 00:36:49,719
I’m at a bad man. I’m at a bad I

591
00:36:49,719 –> 00:36:51,440
guess it’s Turkish, I don’t know. I’m met a bad

592
00:36:51,480 –> 00:36:58,239
man arrested with whale vomit worth Rs two crore, which

593
00:36:58,280 –> 00:37:02,119
is their money. I guess supplier is on the run.

594
00:37:02,360 –> 00:37:07,360
So apparently apparently this man forty three Raju or his

595
00:37:07,480 –> 00:37:15,000
alias’s Rajesh Marwadi. Apparently during interrogations, Rajash revild that he

596
00:37:15,079 –> 00:37:21,440
got the whale vomit from Ganesh Marwadi from from Mumbai

597
00:37:21,960 –> 00:37:27,440
had supplied and then what they call this is ambergris

598
00:37:28,519 –> 00:37:34,119
to Rahu, So this they’re looking for a guy named

599
00:37:34,159 –> 00:37:42,719
Ganesh Marwadi. So apparently whale vomit is sought after for

600
00:37:42,880 –> 00:37:47,840
perfume reasons, highly sought after in the perfume industry. They

601
00:37:47,880 –> 00:37:50,519
call it ambergris. But what it is, it’s it’s whale vomit.

602
00:37:51,920 –> 00:37:56,840
It can fetch up to forty thousand dollars per kilogram.

603
00:37:58,880 –> 00:38:01,480
It’s lucrative protect stems from its ability to extend the

604
00:38:01,519 –> 00:38:06,639
longevity of fragrances, leading to increased demand or despite its rarity.

605
00:38:07,960 –> 00:38:14,000
So this guy was snuggling in whale vomit and it’s

606
00:38:14,039 –> 00:38:18,039
worth forty thousand dollars per kilogram. Folks, if I’m going

607
00:38:18,119 –> 00:38:21,000
to turn to crime, I don’t know. I mean, whale

608
00:38:21,039 –> 00:38:23,559
vomit sounds like it might be something to look into.

609
00:38:24,400 –> 00:38:26,440
And if it’s whale vomit, what’s the big deal? I

610
00:38:26,440 –> 00:38:28,800
mean the whales done using it? Right? I had to

611
00:38:28,800 –> 00:38:33,159
look into this. A little bit. But apparently what happens is.

612
00:38:34,800 –> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 7: Was this.

613
00:38:35,039 –> 00:38:39,519
Speaker 5: Ambergriss, often dubbed floating gold, is a waxy substance produced

614
00:38:39,519 –> 00:38:43,320
by sperm whales. It forms and whales consume indigestible materials,

615
00:38:43,320 –> 00:38:46,840
eventually expelling them as ambergriss. It’s rarety in practicality and

616
00:38:46,840 –> 00:38:51,760
perfumery as a fragrance fixative fixative makes it exceptionally value.

617
00:38:51,880 –> 00:38:54,599
So why is it outlawed? I mean, the whales done

618
00:38:54,679 –> 00:38:59,079
using it, They’ve blown chunks, they’re done with it. Apparently

619
00:38:59,159 –> 00:39:02,119
there’s something that is very very illegal about it. Forty

620
00:39:02,159 –> 00:39:06,480
thousand dollars per kilogram for whale vomit. Who knew? Who

621
00:39:06,559 –> 00:39:10,239
did you know? Did the really Future Ama had an

622
00:39:10,239 –> 00:39:15,880
episode with it? I didn’t know that. Justica’s Future Ama.

623
00:39:17,000 –> 00:39:22,079
I watch Futurama. I don’t ever remember this. So there

624
00:39:22,119 –> 00:39:25,000
you have it. That’s number two. Okay, we’ll give them

625
00:39:25,000 –> 00:39:29,199
that one. We’ll get from that one. That was pretty interesting.

626
00:39:30,519 –> 00:39:35,719
It was interesting. Canada resumes flights after strike ends, so

627
00:39:35,880 –> 00:39:40,159
Reuters had this. Routers is supposed to be uh Kiff

628
00:39:40,239 –> 00:39:43,360
ends up covered in it. Oh dude, you’re gonna have

629
00:39:43,360 –> 00:39:45,199
to hit me up with a link to that in

630
00:39:45,360 –> 00:39:47,760
my DMS later because I’m gonna have to watch that.

631
00:39:50,000 –> 00:39:55,280
Sounds like I’m so naive, Ladies and gentlemen. I didn’t

632
00:39:55,320 –> 00:39:59,679
know anything about any of this, Okay, So anyways, the

633
00:39:59,760 –> 00:40:04,719
new King of Canada or whatever he is, dictator of Canada.

634
00:40:05,039 –> 00:40:08,800
I don’t know this new guy. He told the Canadian

635
00:40:08,800 –> 00:40:10,639
Airlines people to get back to work they were striking,

636
00:40:10,639 –> 00:40:16,079
told him to get back to work, and they did,

637
00:40:16,559 –> 00:40:18,679
all accept for the flight attendants. Flight attends are are

638
00:40:18,719 –> 00:40:20,360
refusing to go back to work. They’re on strike. They’re

639
00:40:20,360 –> 00:40:23,559
not gonna go back to work. They’re defying. They’re defying

640
00:40:23,960 –> 00:40:28,400
the current deity of Canada. It’s gonna be interesting to

641
00:40:28,440 –> 00:40:30,480
see what they do. Are they gonna, you know, freeze

642
00:40:30,519 –> 00:40:33,679
their bank accounts? Are they gonna go after him like

643
00:40:33,719 –> 00:40:37,320
they did the truck drivers? Remember that, the whole truck

644
00:40:37,400 –> 00:40:42,519
driver thing, you know. And that’s another thing. I don’t

645
00:40:42,559 –> 00:40:44,159
know a whole lot about this new guy in Canada.

646
00:40:44,159 –> 00:40:46,079
I know the Prime Minister in Canada, the new King

647
00:40:46,119 –> 00:40:50,559
of Canada. Don’t know a lot about him. I’m assuming

648
00:40:50,679 –> 00:40:54,119
he’s as much of a socialist communists as what’s his nuts,

649
00:40:55,880 –> 00:40:57,960
but I’m not sure. I don’t know anything about him.

650
00:40:58,280 –> 00:41:03,039
So anyways, the refusal by the non year by the

651
00:41:03,079 –> 00:41:05,440
Union to obey the order left many travelers at Toronto

652
00:41:05,440 –> 00:41:08,599
Pierce International Airport confused and frustrated on Sunday afternoon, because

653
00:41:08,599 –> 00:41:10,719
you know, strikes supposed to be over. Many of them

654
00:41:10,719 –> 00:41:14,320
were camped out in airport loungers, uncertain whether when and

655
00:41:14,400 –> 00:41:17,280
if the flights resume or whether Air Canada would make

656
00:41:17,519 –> 00:41:22,239
tentative arrangements. So it’s Air Canada. My mistake. That was

657
00:41:22,320 –> 00:41:25,159
number three. And I’m not gonna go down all of

658
00:41:25,199 –> 00:41:26,840
these because some of them I really don’t care about.

659
00:41:28,840 –> 00:41:32,239
Remember now, these are all these are all the top stories,

660
00:41:32,360 –> 00:41:36,360
the top stories, the stories that if Donald Trump were

661
00:41:36,400 –> 00:41:39,159
to be whisk away off the planet, these are what

662
00:41:39,199 –> 00:41:43,679
you would hear on the news. This is it. It’s a

663
00:41:43,760 –> 00:41:49,400
yawn fest, folks. A Yeah, peacekeepers found weapons A weapons

664
00:41:49,480 –> 00:41:55,840
trolled in southern Lebanon as drought threatens millions. So United Nations,

665
00:41:55,880 –> 00:42:01,960
you know that glorified debate society. Peacekeepers are in southern Lebanon.

666
00:42:02,719 –> 00:42:04,880
What are they doing there? Well, they’re they’re checking on

667
00:42:04,920 –> 00:42:08,079
the Jews. They’re want to make sure the Jews are

668
00:42:08,400 –> 00:42:11,199
doing the right thing. They’re they’re pointing fingers at them,

669
00:42:11,239 –> 00:42:13,800
and and and you know, making sure the Jews don’t

670
00:42:13,840 –> 00:42:21,039
do anything bad because you know, Jews. United Nations. Yeah,

671
00:42:21,079 –> 00:42:23,920
I’m saying that sarcastically. I can’t stand the United Nations.

672
00:42:25,079 –> 00:42:28,199
But anyways, so while the UN peacekeepers are there, you know,

673
00:42:28,239 –> 00:42:32,480
making sure that you know, Israel behaves themselves, they stumble

674
00:42:32,559 –> 00:42:37,320
across this cash of weapons. We’re talking anti take guns, missiles,

675
00:42:38,320 –> 00:42:42,639
all kinds of stuff. It just happened to be there,

676
00:42:42,679 –> 00:42:47,559
you know, just it was just there, no worries, no worries.

677
00:42:48,480 –> 00:42:50,639
It wasn’t like Hesbala put it there or something like that,

678
00:42:50,840 –> 00:42:52,639
or something you know, terrorist organization put up there so

679
00:42:52,679 –> 00:42:56,599
they can eventually use it to attack Israel. Right, it

680
00:42:56,639 –> 00:43:05,119
wouldn’t happen except that that’s exactly what it was there for. Then,

681
00:43:05,119 –> 00:43:06,480
of course, you know, they don’t want to get too

682
00:43:06,599 –> 00:43:08,719
much into the reason, you know why a bunch of

683
00:43:09,480 –> 00:43:12,840
a big cache of weapons was there in Lebanon who

684
00:43:12,960 –> 00:43:14,480
belongs to They don’t want to get too far into that.

685
00:43:14,760 –> 00:43:16,320
So right in the middle, this is right off a

686
00:43:16,400 –> 00:43:18,880
United Nations own site, right in the middle of it,

687
00:43:18,960 –> 00:43:21,199
they just think, boom, let’s just switch gears and go

688
00:43:21,280 –> 00:43:25,079
to there’s no water in southern Lebanon anymore, people are

689
00:43:25,119 –> 00:43:29,679
gonna die. It’s climate change. Donate, donate, don’ate. Don’t give

690
00:43:29,760 –> 00:43:32,760
us all your money because they really don’t want you

691
00:43:32,760 –> 00:43:34,440
to sit there and ask the questions. You know, if

692
00:43:34,480 –> 00:43:37,119
if Lebanon’s the innocent party, why was there a big

693
00:43:37,840 –> 00:43:42,039
cash of weapons there? That was number four. I go

694
00:43:42,079 –> 00:43:44,920
on and on and on there there’s I guess plastic

695
00:43:44,960 –> 00:43:48,079
pollution talks adjourned without consensus. That was the United Nations

696
00:43:48,079 –> 00:43:54,519
one something. Apparently in Geneva they’re having these plastic pollution talks.

697
00:43:55,199 –> 00:43:57,400
You know, they’re good. They’re going to punish the hoy

698
00:43:57,480 –> 00:44:03,079
ploy the commoners, make us stop using plastics because I

699
00:44:03,440 –> 00:44:06,280
guess they say that, you know, all the guys now

700
00:44:06,320 –> 00:44:08,360
have plastic in their balls and stuff. I don’t know.

701
00:44:09,159 –> 00:44:11,199
So they’re gonna make us not use plastic. They’re not

702
00:44:11,280 –> 00:44:13,079
going to quit using it, but they’re gonna make us

703
00:44:13,119 –> 00:44:15,679
quit using it. That was according to BBC News. Let’s

704
00:44:15,679 –> 00:44:20,280
see that’s five six. Oh, here’s a really important East

705
00:44:20,480 –> 00:44:24,880
Bengal wins Kolkata derby. I have no idea what that’s

706
00:44:24,880 –> 00:44:28,719
even referring to the twenty twenty five Duran cups Kolkatta Derby.

707
00:44:29,400 –> 00:44:33,360
I think they’re talking about soccer. Yeah, they must be.

708
00:44:33,599 –> 00:44:35,960
I can already feel the on. What’s the other one though?

709
00:44:36,199 –> 00:44:41,559
This is seven Kashmir student dies in Iran repatriation please,

710
00:44:41,599 –> 00:44:45,199
So apparently a Kashmir student died in Iran. Iran doesn’t

711
00:44:45,199 –> 00:44:48,400
want to give up the body. The Kashmir wants them.

712
00:44:48,400 –> 00:44:50,840
They’re pleading and begging. That was according to the BBC.

713
00:44:51,880 –> 00:44:56,199
Are you guys getting in here? The media has they

714
00:44:56,239 –> 00:45:00,360
need They need a Donald Trump. If Donald tr Trump

715
00:45:00,559 –> 00:45:08,719
disappears tomorrow, all these media outlets are going to go bankrupt.

716
00:45:09,800 –> 00:45:14,000
They love to hate him. They’re in love with hating him.

717
00:45:15,280 –> 00:45:19,800
He goes away, they got nothing. It’s gonna be funny

718
00:45:19,840 –> 00:45:23,599
when when he disappears from public view. It’s gonna be hysterical.

719
00:45:24,079 –> 00:45:28,360
They’re gonna have to find a whole new criminal to,

720
00:45:28,679 –> 00:45:32,760
you know, go after. I’m not gonna bore you with

721
00:45:32,840 –> 00:45:37,320
nine to ten, but eight is pretty interesting. It’s something

722
00:45:37,360 –> 00:45:40,760
that that Orty and Jeff probably have more expertise and

723
00:45:40,760 –> 00:45:45,400
knowledge than I do, because as try as I may,

724
00:45:45,800 –> 00:45:49,880
I don’t understand crypto. I just don’t I know if

725
00:45:49,960 –> 00:45:52,239
if Michelle, if Galtz girl heard me say that, she

726
00:45:52,280 –> 00:45:53,960
would be on the phone with me blowing it up,

727
00:45:54,000 –> 00:45:55,960
going okay, I’m gonna teach you a is he? I

728
00:45:57,400 –> 00:46:00,480
don’t know. It sounds sketch to me. It really does

729
00:46:00,519 –> 00:46:04,079
sound sketchy. I plug in my computer and let it

730
00:46:04,239 –> 00:46:08,840
just do mind cryptocurrency and what do I spend it on?

731
00:46:08,880 –> 00:46:10,280
Can I run down of the store. Can I run

732
00:46:10,360 –> 00:46:12,719
down and buy a candy bar with it or something?

733
00:46:13,360 –> 00:46:16,239
What does it do? I mean, it’s kind of cool

734
00:46:16,280 –> 00:46:18,320
that it’s unregulated, that it’s out there and the banks

735
00:46:18,320 –> 00:46:23,559
are even giving up on it. But this is interesting.

736
00:46:23,719 –> 00:46:30,559
Crypto search trends surge, so people are people are are investigating,

737
00:46:30,679 –> 00:46:37,960
They’re they’re putting their searching for crypto information on the Googles, says.

738
00:46:38,000 –> 00:46:41,440
Google searches for crypto hit a yearly peak, reflecting growing

739
00:46:41,519 –> 00:46:47,679
interest in bitcoin coins and xrps use for international payments.

740
00:46:49,480 –> 00:46:51,320
And because I did you know, as reuters, because I

741
00:46:51,320 –> 00:46:52,679
really didn’t want to get bored with it, I just

742
00:46:52,760 –> 00:46:55,880
asked artificial intelligence. I asked Google’s AI what it was

743
00:46:55,920 –> 00:46:59,760
all about. Says A significant surge in retail interest has

744
00:46:59,800 –> 00:47:03,159
been noted in the crypto market. With Google searches for crypto,

745
00:47:03,559 –> 00:47:07,360
they have in quotes reaching a yearly peak. This heightened

746
00:47:07,360 –> 00:47:11,280
curiosity extends beyond Bitcoin to include all coins and XRP.

747
00:47:12,079 –> 00:47:14,719
Now here’s the key takeaways to this. According to the

748
00:47:14,719 –> 00:47:19,559
Great Google Google Moogli Machine, all coin searches at multi

749
00:47:19,599 –> 00:47:22,079
year highs. Google searches for all coin have surged to

750
00:47:22,159 –> 00:47:25,119
their highest level since twenty twenty one. I’m assuming guys

751
00:47:25,119 –> 00:47:27,199
in chat correct me if I’m wrong. All coin is

752
00:47:27,239 –> 00:47:30,519
like anything other than Bitcoin, something you know, other than

753
00:47:30,519 –> 00:47:34,719
the usual popular stuff. I found out there was a

754
00:47:35,199 –> 00:47:39,039
cryptocurrency called Pi Pie. I thought it was like Raspberry pie.

755
00:47:39,079 –> 00:47:41,400
You can plug your Raspberry pies in and make money.

756
00:47:41,800 –> 00:47:43,639
I was all set. I’ve got like six of them

757
00:47:43,679 –> 00:47:46,280
hanging around here. I was gonna hold me and I’m

758
00:47:46,280 –> 00:47:49,559
gonna be a Bitcoin minor. But it wasn’t it. It

759
00:47:49,599 –> 00:47:54,440
was something it means for pioneer. According to coin Telegraph,

760
00:47:54,559 –> 00:47:57,239
over thirty one all coin ETF application has been submitted

761
00:47:57,239 –> 00:47:59,960
to US regulatory regulators in the first half of twenty twenty.

762
00:48:01,400 –> 00:48:06,760
Retail curiosity and institutional adoption. This trend reflects both. This

763
00:48:06,840 –> 00:48:10,480
trend reflects both increased retail curiosity and institutional adoption of

764
00:48:10,480 –> 00:48:14,519
all coins, signaling a maturing market for diversified crypto exposure,

765
00:48:14,760 –> 00:48:19,840
says an investor. Xrp’s role in international payments, xrps adoption

766
00:48:19,960 –> 00:48:23,880
for international payments is also gaining momentum with its speed. Okay,

767
00:48:23,880 –> 00:48:26,679
if you can use internation bitcoin for international payments, Okay,

768
00:48:26,719 –> 00:48:28,559
I’m in. I’m good. I might have to start minding it.

769
00:48:30,639 –> 00:48:33,119
You got these Chinese radios have to come from somewhere, right,

770
00:48:33,679 –> 00:48:36,320
get your boof wings, your bowlfings. You know you can

771
00:48:36,400 –> 00:48:41,000
use bitcoin. I’m good with that. Oh, I was right,

772
00:48:41,320 –> 00:48:44,559
just says I’m right. All coin is anything that’s not bitcoin.

773
00:48:45,840 –> 00:48:50,880
Dang I win. Anyways, So you can use XRP for

774
00:48:50,960 –> 00:48:55,559
international payment, with its speed, low transaction fees, and efficiency

775
00:48:55,599 –> 00:48:58,559
making it attractive to industries like financial remittance and e commerce.

776
00:48:59,119 –> 00:49:04,440
Blockchain mag reports that XRP adoption is accelerating, with new

777
00:49:04,440 –> 00:49:07,679
partnerships emerging in Africa and Latin America and daily trading

778
00:49:07,719 –> 00:49:15,719
volumes for passing ten billion dollars. Eow nice nice. So.

779
00:49:16,119 –> 00:49:20,559
Google trends data highlights periods of intensified retail curiosity, but

780
00:49:20,639 –> 00:49:24,480
does not predict market directions or provide exact search counts.

781
00:49:24,480 –> 00:49:26,880
In other words, you know, they could be googling this

782
00:49:27,039 –> 00:49:28,840
or something else. They could be looking this information up

783
00:49:28,840 –> 00:49:32,119
for something else, and I did find You know, I’ve

784
00:49:32,119 –> 00:49:34,000
been curious about this. And I’ll have to talk to

785
00:49:34,039 –> 00:49:37,599
already about this. Brave search engine. Brave search Engine allows

786
00:49:37,639 –> 00:49:43,440
you to bitcoin. Mind already says he’s leaning into XRP

787
00:49:43,599 –> 00:49:46,559
right now. You might have to look into it. You

788
00:49:46,639 –> 00:49:51,599
never know. That’s part about it. It’s non government regulated.

789
00:49:51,639 –> 00:49:54,400
That makes me laugh. It’s not regulated in any way,

790
00:49:54,480 –> 00:49:58,880
is it. You know, so if the government has there’s

791
00:49:59,000 –> 00:50:03,760
mudgy little fingers, pudgy little clamps away from it. Eh.

792
00:50:03,800 –> 00:50:06,719
I might have to learn it. I’ve learned other things.

793
00:50:07,039 –> 00:50:09,599
I’ve learned how to use AI, Folks. You should be proud.

794
00:50:09,639 –> 00:50:11,760
I’m gonna be sixty years old in a few weeks. Okay,

795
00:50:12,880 –> 00:50:16,880
I’m zeroing in on it. I’m there, and I use

796
00:50:16,920 –> 00:50:20,320
AI at work all the time. As far as work goes.

797
00:50:20,360 –> 00:50:23,280
One of the best inventions ever. You get some mundane

798
00:50:23,320 –> 00:50:25,519
task chucked at you, just going to I said, hey,

799
00:50:26,119 –> 00:50:28,760
I need blah blah blah blah blah, and it poops

800
00:50:28,800 –> 00:50:32,599
out what you need and you just refine it a

801
00:50:32,639 –> 00:50:35,400
little bit and send it out and everybody goes, oh,

802
00:50:35,440 –> 00:50:38,840
you used artificial intelligence create this. You’re smart, You’re keeping

803
00:50:38,920 –> 00:50:45,639
up at the times. You’re intelligent. Now I’m lazy. I’m

804
00:50:45,679 –> 00:50:47,800
almost at the end of my working career. I know

805
00:50:47,840 –> 00:50:50,280
a times suck given to me when I see it,

806
00:50:50,599 –> 00:50:52,079
So I just let a I do it. And I’ve

807
00:50:52,119 –> 00:50:54,159
gotten to the point where I can really dig down

808
00:50:54,199 –> 00:50:56,360
deep into that and say, now do this, now do this. Now,

809
00:50:56,360 –> 00:50:58,800
I’ll take this away. I did when I did this

810
00:50:58,840 –> 00:51:02,280
whole this last part of this show. First thing I

811
00:51:02,320 –> 00:51:05,840
did was the top ten stories that have nothing to

812
00:51:05,840 –> 00:51:07,639
do with Donald Trump. But they just threw some stories.

813
00:51:07,639 –> 00:51:11,000
I said, okay, now make them the most neutral, politically

814
00:51:11,079 –> 00:51:15,320
neutral sources. And it came out ten different ones. The

815
00:51:15,440 –> 00:51:17,639
ten the ten ones that came up with first. We’re

816
00:51:17,679 –> 00:51:22,480
just like, no, that’s all politics. So what do we

817
00:51:22,519 –> 00:51:25,199
get when when we go completely neutral and look up

818
00:51:25,239 –> 00:51:29,719
ten stories? We get whale vomit? We get air Canada strikes,

819
00:51:30,280 –> 00:51:33,119
we get weapons uncovered in Lebanon that aren’t supposed to

820
00:51:33,159 –> 00:51:39,719
be there, plastic pollution talks, what a yawn fest? We get?

821
00:51:39,760 –> 00:51:44,760
Soccer didn’t even mention anything about you know, American football

822
00:51:45,400 –> 00:51:50,800
getting kicking up this week. This, kids, is why I

823
00:51:50,920 –> 00:51:53,920
don’t listen to a lot of shortwave radios across the sea,

824
00:51:54,000 –> 00:52:00,199
because this is the stories they have. It’s like who cares? Okay,

825
00:52:00,199 –> 00:52:03,920
already says it’s still governed by the SEC. But then

826
00:52:03,960 –> 00:52:06,719
in the government both dropping the laws. Who is opening

827
00:52:06,800 –> 00:52:08,719
up to a potential gain? And I read that already.

828
00:52:08,760 –> 00:52:12,719
I read that article about them backing away from some

829
00:52:12,840 –> 00:52:17,119
of the regulations. It’s been a pariah for several years. Okay,

830
00:52:17,599 –> 00:52:22,719
that’s interesting. I might have to look into that. And

831
00:52:22,760 –> 00:52:25,519
it did come across that article see here. I am

832
00:52:25,559 –> 00:52:30,400
all trendy and stuff, keeping up with the times. Not

833
00:52:30,440 –> 00:52:32,400
that I care about all those articles. Like I said,

834
00:52:32,400 –> 00:52:35,119
every one of those that would be your news. If

835
00:52:35,119 –> 00:52:37,519
you turned down the six o’clock news and it was

836
00:52:37,559 –> 00:52:40,920
completely political neutral, those would be your top stories for

837
00:52:40,960 –> 00:52:46,320
the night. This folks, as much as they don’t want

838
00:52:46,360 –> 00:52:48,000
to admit it, as much as they hate too much,

839
00:52:48,000 –> 00:52:51,719
as much as they seethe and they spit and they

840
00:52:52,519 –> 00:52:55,400
bite themselves and draw their own blood thinking about it,

841
00:52:57,800 –> 00:53:02,719
The mainstream media needs Donald Trump. Without him, they’re lame.

842
00:53:03,519 –> 00:53:06,519
They have nothing. They would actually have to work to

843
00:53:06,599 –> 00:53:09,800
come up with stories. They would actually have to get

844
00:53:09,840 –> 00:53:14,280
out there. They would they would have to actually go

845
00:53:14,440 –> 00:53:18,760
interview people. They would have to mix with the unwashed masses.

846
00:53:19,679 –> 00:53:29,960
The horror, the horror. Yeah, I already says it’s not

847
00:53:30,000 –> 00:53:31,800
gonna get rich fast. But I support what they’re trying

848
00:53:31,800 –> 00:53:33,800
to do, is yes, so do I so do I.

849
00:53:34,440 –> 00:53:36,199
It’s kind of an interesting thing. I’m gonna. I’m gonna,

850
00:53:36,280 –> 00:53:39,079
I’m gonna dig into that a little bit deeper. I

851
00:53:39,159 –> 00:53:42,360
might I might be rethinking the whole bitcoin thing. I

852
00:53:42,440 –> 00:53:46,440
might be doing something with that. You know. I got

853
00:53:46,440 –> 00:53:49,639
to keep that steady stream of handheld radios going. And

854
00:53:49,679 –> 00:53:52,840
if I can pay international you know stuff, getting my

855
00:53:53,039 –> 00:53:56,599
cheap Chinese handheld radios in here for my hamm radio stuff,

856
00:53:57,960 –> 00:54:04,719
why not. And I’ve got an addiction, guys. I’m looking

857
00:54:04,760 –> 00:54:06,639
at I’m looking over here on top of my desk,

858
00:54:06,639 –> 00:54:09,480
and I’ve got like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

859
00:54:09,519 –> 00:54:13,039
eight nine, I got one more, ten out on the porch,

860
00:54:13,599 –> 00:54:17,039
eleven upstairs, and twelve out of my truck. I got

861
00:54:17,039 –> 00:54:24,480
twelve handheld radios, now twelve. I might get rid of

862
00:54:24,519 –> 00:54:26,920
some of them, I really might, but I don’t know

863
00:54:26,920 –> 00:54:29,199
which ones to get rid of. They all have their purpose.

864
00:54:29,199 –> 00:54:31,559
The only one that I don’t really use anymore is

865
00:54:31,599 –> 00:54:36,159
that that radioity GD What is that seventy seven? That’s

866
00:54:36,199 –> 00:54:43,719
they’re old. They’re old DMR radio digital radio. It just

867
00:54:43,719 –> 00:54:48,400
doesn’t work, Jeff says. Next week on Sunday Night with

868
00:54:48,400 –> 00:54:51,559
a own ray, we hold an intervention. Hey, you know,

869
00:54:51,639 –> 00:54:54,400
I’m mild some of these hand radio operators. They’ve got

870
00:54:54,440 –> 00:54:58,000
like thirty forty different handhelds. Man, not even kidding you.

871
00:54:59,079 –> 00:55:02,559
It’s a sickness. It’s a sickness because they’re inexpensive and

872
00:55:02,599 –> 00:55:05,840
they’re so much fun. And I think it stems from

873
00:55:05,880 –> 00:55:08,639
being a kid and having walkie talkies. I’m pretty sure

874
00:55:08,639 –> 00:55:14,119
that’s what it stems from. Man, we’re already back up

875
00:55:14,159 –> 00:55:17,599
the top of the hour, five more minutes, and Man,

876
00:55:18,119 –> 00:55:20,840
I was wondering, are we gonna have enough to talk about? Folks.

877
00:55:21,320 –> 00:55:24,239
It is the beginning, It is the very beginning of

878
00:55:24,320 –> 00:55:29,679
hurricane season. I got a feeling we’re gonna have a

879
00:55:29,679 –> 00:55:32,039
heck of a winner, at least up here in the North.

880
00:55:32,079 –> 00:55:34,519
I usually if you’ve get a lot of rain, a

881
00:55:34,519 –> 00:55:37,480
lot of storms, a lot of freaky weather activity in

882
00:55:37,519 –> 00:55:40,760
the summer, you’re going to have to have a lot

883
00:55:40,800 –> 00:55:44,920
of things to think about in the winter because usually

884
00:55:44,920 –> 00:55:51,280
big storms and stuff like that, you know, Jeff, I

885
00:55:51,639 –> 00:55:53,559
mean you can get them GMR. You can get a

886
00:55:53,599 –> 00:55:56,360
license for GMR radio and you can have it with

887
00:55:56,400 –> 00:55:58,480
your son. You can hide it in his backpack and

888
00:55:58,519 –> 00:56:00,199
only bring it out on the way home and talk

889
00:56:00,239 –> 00:56:05,119
to you emergency comms. Baby doesn’t take a test. You

890
00:56:05,199 –> 00:56:07,760
just got to pay for the GMRS license. Those aren’t bad.

891
00:56:08,280 –> 00:56:10,639
It’s just like Ham radio. It’s just above the Ham

892
00:56:10,719 –> 00:56:14,119
radio frequencies in seventy centimeter. It’s a good way to

893
00:56:14,159 –> 00:56:15,960
start it out. Next thing, you know, you’ll have one

894
00:56:16,039 –> 00:56:22,159
hundred and fifty of those. So yeah, prep, get ready.

895
00:56:22,559 –> 00:56:24,800
It’s gonna be uh. A winner is gonna be upon

896
00:56:24,880 –> 00:56:28,760
us before we know it. And one thing I have

897
00:56:28,880 –> 00:56:32,239
been doing, which I thought, you know, rehabbing the shoulder

898
00:56:32,239 –> 00:56:36,320
and everything that I’ve been doing, I also started hiking

899
00:56:36,360 –> 00:56:39,119
with weighted bests up to three miles. With uh, I’ve

900
00:56:39,159 –> 00:56:41,280
got a twenty pounder. Now I’ve got three miles. I

901
00:56:41,280 –> 00:56:45,000
can go on that thing like nothing’s happening. The reason

902
00:56:45,079 –> 00:56:48,119
being is having that nice, big heavy bag full of

903
00:56:48,360 –> 00:56:50,840
stuff in my truck. If I actually have to walk

904
00:56:50,880 –> 00:56:52,760
with it. I want to be able to go three

905
00:56:52,800 –> 00:56:56,079
four five miles and not collapse in a heap, breathing

906
00:56:56,159 –> 00:57:00,480
and puking and you know, gasping for air. I figured,

907
00:57:00,519 –> 00:57:02,480
you know what, maybe I should strap some weight on

908
00:57:02,480 –> 00:57:06,079
my button, go hiking around and it’s a different lifestyle.

909
00:57:06,280 –> 00:57:08,400
I’m gonna get up to thirty pounds. I’ve got a

910
00:57:08,400 –> 00:57:10,440
thirty pound vest. Haven’t been able to do it since

911
00:57:10,480 –> 00:57:13,039
the shoulders screwed up on me. But I’m almost there.

912
00:57:13,079 –> 00:57:16,440
I’m gonna get there. I am Alan Ray. It’s Sunday

913
00:57:16,480 –> 00:57:18,559

916
00:57:23,079 –> 00:57:24,719
don’t even think. I don’t know if this thing goes

917
00:57:24,760 –> 00:57:26,559
out on YouTube or anything like that. But if you’re

918
00:57:26,599 –> 00:57:28,760

great night next week, probably playing in the dirt with Stacy.

929
00:58:04,800 –> 00:58:08,320
I will not be doing a show Labor Day weekend.

930
00:58:08,800 –> 00:58:11,119
My children are kidnapping me and I don’t know where

931
00:58:11,119 –> 00:58:15,159
we’re going, but that’s my before birthday celebration, according to them.

932
00:58:15,400 –> 00:58:18,679
God bless peace out. We’ll talk again soon. Peace
