2

The unnecessary way you waited for me
3
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Were families hold up signs
4
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000
And I almost forgot the way that
5
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,000
You looked at me in the soft light

I saw my soul reflected, felt known
7
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,000
In the middle of haze of a red wine stained night
8
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,000
So won't you tell me
9
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,000
That I wasn't the only one

That's the easiest, the most beneficial
44
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
The way to crack the case

Some stuff always going on
48
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000
So our show consists of a three hour show
49
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,000
But we only do one hour where we actually do it on this little thing
50
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Outside of that, everything else, you know, you can get involved with
51
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000
Call in radio.com
52
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000
We'll take you into our messaging, texting and video messaging

All available in one shot
54
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,000
If you want to do it in that particular versionality
55
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Outside of that, well, we bring in some professional broadcasters
56
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
They talk and they do the things that they do
57
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,000
And we get to hang out and look around and do all the stuff together
58
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000
So don't worry about any of that
59
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000
Because that's kind of the way that the whole aspects goes
60
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000
The whole world of it goes
61
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000
So there you go, yep
62
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000
Audio, video and text messaging is what's available to you
63
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
And then the other part that I think about all the time
64
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,000
Is that it's our radio show that goes into a podcast network
65
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000
That we also video broadcast for the first hour
66
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,000
And if you have one of those live pod catchers
67
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Well, it will allow you to do something that it's not normal
68
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,000
Where the pod catcher will actually play everything in real time for you
69
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,000
So it makes it a little bit interesting
70
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Just to say the least
71
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
So there you go, a lot of stuff, a little time
72
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
And there's how the whole thing goes
73
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Anyways, let's start talking right away about what the hell was trending in the overnight
74
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,000
Because that's important
75
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Seriously, what was trending?
76
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Here is what was trending
77
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Rated R, Safety Show
78
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,000
Okay, so as I take a look at the trends of the end to the end
79
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
To go something like this
80
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Da da da da da
81
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,000
A survey sheds light on on on on
82
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Are you ready?
83
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000
On on on on
84
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000
American media habits and the budget airline files bankruptcy
85
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,000
We'll talk about that
86
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,000
Also, did he get rated again?
87
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000
And Liam Payne will be laid to rest this week
88
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,000
We'll talk about some of that
89
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Also, Beyonce will perform at one of the NFL Christmas games
90
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
This is on Christmas Day
91
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,000
And Timothy Shamilai didn't hold back on when playing Bob Dylan
92
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,000
We'll talk about that in just a bit
93
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
In regards to details of casting call
94
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Also, investigators pursue crooks in a major robbery at Windsor
95
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Details, we'll talk about that in the Royals
96
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
By the way, you know, we've talked about this a little bit
97
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000
But this should be the like the last full week of work
98
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
You know, you know what I'm talking about
99
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Where you're doing everything if you're here in the US
100
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Before we get into the holidays
101
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
So yeah, next week will be interesting
102
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
We'll kind of we'll we'll play it closer to the to the chest
103
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,000
As we get there and figure out what the hell we're doing
104
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000
So there you go
105
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,000
A lot of stuff going on as we are talking
106
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,000
But anyways, with that being said
107
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000
I have some professional broadcasters waiting from feature new
108
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
Feature newie
109
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Yeah, feature story news
110
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000
They want to talk to you a little bit about what the hell's going on
111
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
So if you give me just one moment
112
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,000
We'll get them all set up for you for the you can listen to what the hell is going on with the headlines of stuff
113
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Because that's important for you to have something to talk about
114
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
You know, some people always go why is there so much news?
115
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,000
We need something to start talking about
116
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,000
Before we start throwing down some of the smack down
117
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,000
When it comes to some of the stuff that we talk about safety
118
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,000
So there you go
119
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,000
Anyways, with that being said
120
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Let's go ahead and get you into the news right now
121
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Because that seems to be important
122
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000
Here is the news on the
123
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Safety show feature story news in London
124
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,000
I'm Ollie Barrett
125
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:15,000
A Hong Kong court has sentenced 45 former politicians and pro-democracy activists in a mass subversion trial
126
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Three judges handed down jail terms of up to 10 years in Hong Kong's largest national security case
127
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Laura Westbrook reports from the court
128
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Many have spent the past three years behind bars
129
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:35,000
They planned an unofficial primary in July 2020 to pick candidates for the election scheduled in September that year
130
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:44,000
They were accused of trying to paralyze the government and forced then leader Carrie Lam to resign by seizing a majority in the legislative council
131
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,000
And using it to block government budgets
132
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:53,000
The judges had rules that the scheme would have created a constitutional crisis if it had been carried out
133
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Laura Westbrook, Hong Kong
134
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,000
The Russia Ukraine conflict is into its 1000th day
135
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Moscow is warning the use of US long range missiles by Kiev would force what it calls an appropriate and tangible response
136
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,000
US President Joe Biden has pledged four billion dollars for the world's poorest countries
137
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:24,000
The announcement came after Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva launched a global alliance to fight hunger and poverty at the G20 meeting of the world's leading economies in Rio de Janeiro
138
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,000
From where Kate Fisher reports
139
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Joe Biden's pledge of four billion dollars to help fight global hunger
140
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:39,000
Supporting the Brazilian leaders new global alliance that he's launched as part of his country's presidency of the G20
141
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:48,000
But there was less consensus among members over other issues like climate finance and Russia's war in Ukraine
142
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000
And overshadowing all of this is the specter of the new US President Donald Trump
143
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:59,000
None of these countries are quite sure what will happen once he takes office again in January
144
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:06,000
Thousands of farmers are descending on London to protest against the government's changes to tax rules for farms
145
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:12,000
Farmers say more will have to pay inheritance tax and that many UK family farms may not survive
146
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:18,000
The government insists the vast majority of farmers won't be affected and says it isn't backing down
147
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000
Farmer Harry Middleditch says that's wrong
148
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:27,000
It's going to affect us all. That's one of the sides that's angered the industry where Treasury has got the figures totally wrong
149
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:33,000
We need to stand united together and it's not just purely on my behalf that why I'm going because of the budget
150
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,000
The budget for us, for me, was the last nail in the coffin
151
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,000
It's just an ongoing side of it and we're just being squeezed by the supermarkets even harder
152
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Government Minister Dame Diana Johnson is playing down fears of food shortages while pointing to contingency plans if needed
153
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Those plans are there. They are worked on constantly
154
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000
National security is obviously one of the most important things that any government has to be prepared for
155
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,000
And those contingency measures, if needed, are there
156
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,000
From bureaus worldwide, this is FSN
157
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
With FSN Spotlight, I'm Simon Marks
158
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Today, the furious reaction from Trump insiders over reports that President Joe Biden has given Ukraine the go-ahead
159
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,000
to use US-supplied long-range Atacomz missiles to their full capacity
160
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Up until now, the Ukrainians have not been allowed to use those weapons to strike at targets on Russian soil
161
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:31,000
even though they have a sufficient range to strike at least 200 miles inside the country
162
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:39,000
If it is true, it is one of the most egregiously irresponsible acts of any sitting president in modern times
163
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Sebastian Gorka advised President Trump during his first term in office and is tipped to return to the President's national security team in January
164
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:57,000
The idea that we are 62 days away from the inauguration means that there should be no serious military strategic action taken
165
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,000
short of an impending attack against US forces
166
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:12,000
The idea that he is precipitating further destabilization of Eastern Europe 62 days from the inauguration of President Trump, it just boggles the mind
167
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Biden officials say the President's decision was designed to punish Russia for deploying troops from North Korea into the Ukrainian front lines
168
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:26,000
But many in Washington believe it was also driven by a desire to give Kiev a military advantage
169
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:32,000
before the Trump team is able to force President Volodymyr Zelensky into peace talks with the Kremlin
170

223
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Okay, there you go, 17 minutes past the top of the hour as you and I are hanging out today
224
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:57,000
Getting to do all the lovely stuff that we get to do, no doubt about that
225
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Anyways, let's get into some of the new stuff
226
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000
Because I think that that is going to be important for you
227
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,000
So take a listen to this real quick
228
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:14,000
An undersea communication cable linking Germany and Finland went offline this week
229
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Leaving both countries and the rest of Europe wondering what happened
230
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Officials believe the cable was physically severed
231
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,000
But have not publicly announced how it happened
232
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:30,000
Though they're implicated Russia in a joint statement
233
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,000
The nation's foreign minister said
234
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Our European security is not only under the threat from Russia's war
235
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Or of aggression against the Ukraine
236
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000
But also from a hybrid warfare by malicious actors
237
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:51,000
The company that manages that cable which runs 730 miles between Hintzky
238
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,000
And we're going to butcher this
239
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,000
Well, some portion in Germany, let's just say it that way
240
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,000
Said that all the fiber connections were cut
241
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,000
In a statement the data company said
242
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,000
These kind of breaks don't happen in these waters without outside impact
243
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:13,000
In the meantime other cables that have kept internet traffic in Finland and Germany running
244
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,000
This is according to the BBC
245
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:22,000
The Genance oil field managed by Norway went offline on Monday after a power outage on shore
246
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000
And British Airways experienced a massive IT failure on Monday
247
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,000
Stranding tens of thousands of passengers across Europe
248
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:38,000
And the company's website and app also reportedly experienced outages
249
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,000
I don't think it gets much more clear than that
250
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,000
So there you go
251
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,000
What do you think?
252
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,000
A lot of stuff
253
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000
A lot of stuff for sure as we are talking
254
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Don't you think?
255
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:58,000
We at Safety FM are not responsible for what this idiot behind the microphone is saying
256
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,000
He is trying to be entertaining
257
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,000
Rated R Safety Show
258
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,000
I mean I'm just trying to point out what's obvious here
259
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:09,000
Don't get mad at me in regards of doing what I do in regards of talking about it
260
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,000
Because it's kind of strange
261
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,000
It's kind of a stranger angel one
262
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,000
No doubt there
263
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,000
So there you go
264
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Anyways let's continue talking
265
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:27,000
A recent study of 2000 adults living in the US found that only 1 in 5 plan to host friends and family for the first time ever in the holiday season
266
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Commissioned by the Honey Baked Ham Company
267
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,000
They also found that 59% of respondents considered hosting a tradition of theirs
268
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,000
While additional 41% prefer creating new traditions
269
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:47,000
When it comes to food most said they have served traditional Thanksgiving meals with turkey as their main course
270
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000
While 49% said they prefer to eat ham
271
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,000
For as long as the perfect coast
272
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
Let's see 7 in 10 think that keeping things informal is key
273
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,000
73% and think that the menu is important
274
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:07,000
And 60% want alternative food options to accommodate gates
275
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
According to the New York Post
276
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000
So I don't know
277
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,000
Are you accommodating?
278
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Or do you look at it and you go
279
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
It's food my friends it's food
280
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000
So let's do the thing because that's going to be the important part
281
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Or do you get your need to say I don't care
282
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,000
Like I'll tell you where I live
283
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:32,000
What there's a pretty popular let's say hotel
284
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:38,000
That they do all kinds of food buffets that are available in several of their hotel chains here
285
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,000
So it's interesting to see
286
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,000
I think it's like $75 a person which I think I was like that's kind of high
287
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:49,000
But whatever what do I know I guess if you spend the whole day there you probably are feasting quite well
288
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,000
If you kind of give it a look in that particular matter
289
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:57,000
So let's talk about some other stuff because I don't know what to talk about when it comes to certain things
290
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,000
But let's talk about what's going on with with some airline
291
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:10,000
So take a listen to this in January a federal judge blocked a proposed merger between Spirit Airlines and JetBlue
292
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:17,000
Noting that it's ruling that the consolidation would lessen competition in an already tight air travel market
293
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,000
Now Spirit has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
294
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:27,000
The airline intends to continue operations and restructure their debt during the proceedings as part of the process
295
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:34,000
Spirit may says they will restruct $1.64 billion in debt and cut $800 million
296
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:42,000
The company's rep say that the exact move though the bankruptcy process should be quickly according to Axios
297
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:51,000
So if you can't join in regards of doing a merger because of what a court said
298
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:57,000
And then all of a sudden you run into this cluster it gets kind of interesting
299
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:06,000
I mean you have to look at it and go what a weird thing because why is it that you can do it in one fashion in regards
300
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:12,000
You can't merge but filing for bankruptcy is fine because there's not enough alternative that gets kind of strange
301
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
When you start thinking about it from the bigger scheme of things
302
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,000
So there you go
303
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Anyways a beer research survey shed some light on how Americans consume news
304
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:28,000
Traditional mainstream media outlets lose their influence about 20% say that they get news from social media influencers
305
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:37,000
These influencers who are specifically promote news into their audience are concentrated on X where 85% have photo files
306
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:43,000
And about half are on Instagram and another 44% are on YouTube
307
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Of these influencers 27% identify as right wing or right leaning 21% is right wing or excuse me as left leaning or left wing
308
00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:05,000
And the rest let you figure out where they're where they're bent is nearly two thirds of all news influencers are men
309
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:10,000
And more than three fourths have no affiliation with a formal news agency
310
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000
This is according to pure research
311
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,000
So let me ask a strange question here
312
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:22,000
Where do you get most of your new stuff? Do you go through traditional media sources?
313
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
I'm just asking to understand better
314
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
I'm not asking for any other purposes
315
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,000
So I don't know I mean everybody does their own thing of course in regards to it
316
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:35,000
But then some people wonder okay well I get all of my news stories from podcasting
317
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:42,000
I get it from podcast and then I don't understand why everything seems to be so slanted in regards of all the marketing stuff that I get
318
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000
You have to think about some of that stuff
319
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:50,000
It's the show and they just make fun of a whole bunch of people
320
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,000
It's just too funny
321
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,000
It's too stupid
322
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Rated R
