Speaker 4: Hello, Linda, Hi, Kevin, how are you.

18
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 3: We were preempted by the underwater basket weaving team of

19
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 3: Syracuse last week, so.

20
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: Good to be back this week though.

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:17,680
Speaker 4: Oh it's not a year.

22
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that time of year, Tuesday night, Tuesday night college games.

23
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 3: In fact, I got a meeting with the newsletter people

24
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 3: yesterday and one of them was like, Hey, how come

25
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 3: they you know, you guys have you know, so many

26
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: basketball games because we like the travel show.

27
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: And I was like, well, that's the thing.

28
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: If Syracuse wants to come and pay am nine to

29
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: seventy thousands of dollars for our air time, I guess

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 3: they're going.

31
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: To take it.

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: But that's what that's why we have to sometimes have

33
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 3: the week off. Anyway, lots of stuff to talk about. Hey,

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: are you an Olympic fan at all?

35
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 5: You know?

36
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 4: I think when I was younger I really imbibed. Not

37
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 4: as much anymore I am, even.

38
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: Though it's going to be in Italy this well a

39
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: couple of weeks.

40
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 4: I like watching for the scenery, right, I want to

41
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 4: see where they are and what they're doing. I do

42
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 4: think Kevin though, every time the Olympics come around and

43
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 4: I can't even count anymore? Is it every four years?

44
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 4: Is it every two years? With the change of the season,

45
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 4: Like I'm out of this. Do you remember in like

46
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 4: nineteen seventy seven when they had what was the guys

47
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 4: John Cameron Swayze was he who was the big announcer

48
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 4: on like ABC Sports. Howard goes, Oh right, you had

49
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 4: those guys and it was like an event to watch.

50
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 4: Now there's thirty thousand things going on at one time,

51
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 4: it kind of lost its luster for me. I mean,

52
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 4: I still like the figure skating, which I think is

53
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 4: fun to watch.

54
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,399
Speaker 2: The figure skating big time.

55
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 4: I love the figure skating, but I think it's just

56
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 4: become very watered just me, I think it's become very

57
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 4: watered down.

58
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: But it is going to be in the Milan region

59
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 3: this year, and since you know, we talk about Italy

60
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 3: a lot, I was just thinking, and she's definitely My

61
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: bride's definitely got a date with the remote control.

62
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: She intends to see this through.

63
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: But then after and you're right, it is every two years,

64
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 3: but they alternate, so it's, you know, the winter, and

65
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 3: then two years later it's the summer. But the summer

66
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: ones coming to La, you know, two years from now,

67
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: so it'll be Italy and then the US and it'll

68
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 3: be I think it'll be fun for a team US.

69
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 3: The reason I ask is because I noticed in our

70
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 3: travel stack you've got a story about Cortina Cortina.

71
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 2: Is that in that region, Well.

72
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 4: Cortina is up north. Cortina is mountains and skiing in

73
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 4: the Alps, and that's where classically the Italians would go

74
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 4: skiing for a ski vacation was always Cortina, Cortina, So

75
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 4: that's why they're doing it there. So, I mean, it's

76
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 4: pretty far from Milan. They have to have their own

77
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 4: village there, they have to have their own accommodate whatever

78
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 4: is going on. But I was thinking too, there's always

79
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 4: some sweetheart of the Olympics, isn't there either, some underdog,

80
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: some oh yeah, somebody that we always end up falling

81
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 4: in love with every Olympics. So I'm curious to see

82
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 4: who it's going to be this year.

83
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: It'll be interesting, for sure. The thing is, we have

84
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 3: the weather for the Winter Olympics here. Now, what did

85
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 3: you do?

86
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: What did you do this weekend?

87
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 3: Because we literally when we shut the door, I think

88
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: on Friday night, we didn't emerge from the house again

89
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: until last night. And the only reason we did was

90
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 3: because I told Amy, I said, we're going to go

91
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,479
Speaker 3: get dinner somewhere else, just so that we all have

92
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 3: to put clothes on and leave the house.

93
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 4: I tell you, I don't complain about that anymore. As

94
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 4: a matter of fact, I wish for snow days. I

95
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 4: love it when things just shut down and you are

96
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 4: forced to be home without having to make an excuse

97
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: why you don't want to go somewhere. Well, we don't

98
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 4: go anywhere because nobody else is going anywhere.

99
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: It's right.

100
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 4: It was a bye I have my kids this weekend,

101
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 4: and it was a bye week for sports for my

102
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 4: son because he plays travel basketball and usually that's like

103
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 4: one game after another, right right, I got a bye

104
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: week this weekend, so we were lucky. So we were pretty.

105
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 2: Much you nessed in just like everybody else, except.

106
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 4: For going to church. Yeah, that we did.

107
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 2: We didn't even make it out for church.

108
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 3: We did the we did the online service, we saw,

109
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: we watched the Thursday night service. The interesting thing about

110
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: this is she grew up in southern California. I grew

111
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 3: up in Texas. Both kind of warm spots. But I

112
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: kind of really I'm like you, I kind of dig.

113
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 2: The snow days. I like being home. I like being

114
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 2: in flannel clothes all day.

115
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: She can do that for about a day and then

116
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,239
Speaker 3: she's like, I need, I need, I need out I need.

117
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 2: Warmth, I need something to do.

118
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 3: And I think she polished off two complete novels in

119
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 3: three days.

120
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 4: She start to finish, So God bless Amy, because I

121
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 4: hate the writer. I hate to admit this. I hate reading.

122
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 4: I hate it. I hate reading, and I don't know

123
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 4: why it is. It seems very painful to me. And

124
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 4: then I hear people like Amy who love She plows.

125
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 3: Through fifty books a year, minimum's. And she's got a

126
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 3: friend now that they've started their own kind of little

127
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: you know, exchange, so one of them will buy five

128
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: titles and read them all and then they'll trade and

129
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 3: then go back and forth. And yeah, so she was

130
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 3: just like if I could show people, it was like

131
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: a blanket pulled up to her chin on the couch.

132
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 3: All you saw was ahead in like a book in

133
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 3: front of her. And she's just that was her spot

134
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 3: for the weekend.

135
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 4: How cozy.

136
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 3: The kids and I did see a number of movies

137
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 3: that we have re seen, and my daughter is trying

138
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 3: out for Annie, and we watched Annie the Musical about

139
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 3: seventeen million times in three days.

140
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 4: That was started it for me.

141
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 3: If we if we suddenly break out with you know.

142
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 4: Worrow were never fully dressed without about.

143
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 3: Any any of the classics. Tonight you'll you'll know exactly

144
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 3: why there is some interesting stuff going on. But I

145
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 3: am curious if if you were to, like, does does

146
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: this kind of weather shut down your desire to go

147
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: places to go see things? Because I think there's some places.

148
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 3: I was remarking about this as we were driving out

149
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: last night. I said, you know, it's it's been largely

150
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: untouched for three days except for the roads.

151
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 2: They got the roads done.

152
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: But as you drive through the neighborhoods and the farms

153
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: and the.

154
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: Parks and everything, it's just beautiful.

155
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 3: And it's it's like when the sun wasn't out on

156
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: Saturday and Sunday and it was just continuing to come down,

157
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 3: but it had that kind of gray sky. It was

158
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: like a real life Ansel Adams photograph, Like you felt

159
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 3: like you were in one of his pictures.

160
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 4: Well, it is beautiful. I was saying that to my

161
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 4: daughters we were driving around. I'm like, you know what,

162
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 4: it is pretty when things are sterile like that and

163
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 4: unadulterated snow before the cars and.

164
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 3: The slush today by five pm today, it'll uh whatever time,

00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 3: by the end of the night, this place will be

166
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: you'll have black snow. It'll be gross, of course, but

167
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 3: first getting out after it's fallen.

168
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 4: And that's winter in the Northeast, Kevin. And that's the beauty,

169
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 4: the beauty that if there is beauty to winter in

170
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 4: the Northeast, that is it. Because these are the winter

171
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 4: doldrums we call.

172
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 2: It's not the eight degree windshill from this morning.

173
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 4: That was crazy, man, And I'm up the box, I'm

174
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 4: upped out the door by five. It was like, what

175
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: did I do? But I made it and I didn't freeze.

176
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: We had we had an argument with the middle kid

177
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: last night because he just went out to dinner and

178
00:08:59,120 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 3: just a leather jack.

179
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 4: Well that's what they do. My daughter was in and

180
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: jo is yesterday.

181
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 3: She didn't really I mean, we didn't really notice that

182
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: he had just done that. So by the time we

183
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 3: got to the restaurant, we're all sitting around the table.

184
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 3: His mom finally realizes, Oh, that's all he left the

185
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,599
Speaker 3: house in. And this morning, I don't think he was

186
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 3: even tempted to try to do it because it was

187
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 3: still cold and it's called easily anyway, So I don't

188
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: even understand what he was thinking.

189
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 4: About anyway, they don't.

190
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,200

Speaker 8: Well.

240
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 9: This is Albert Moehler for townhall dot Com. This past Sunday,

241
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 9: the unthinkable happened. A leftist mob ate it and abedded

242
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 9: by former CNN host Don Lemon, burst into an evangelical

243
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 9: congregation at worship on the Lord's Day. It happened. City's

244
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 9: Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was worshiping this past Sunday.

245
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 9: Angry protesters invaded the church, stopped its worship, intimidated its members,

246
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 9: and demanded that the church denounce one of its elders,

247
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 9: who is currently serving as acting Field director for US

248
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 9: Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, better known as ICE. Is this

249
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 9: where we are headed. Invading a church engaged in worship

250
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 9: on the Lord's Day is the breaking of a bright

251
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 9: moral line. Children and young people in this Southern Baptist

252
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 9: congregation were traumatized. This is flatly wrong and clearly scandalous.

253
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 9: Federal authorities need to act, and responsible citizens need to

254
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 9: remind our fellow citizens that ICE is an official federal

255
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 9: law enforcement agency and is to be fully respected. This

256
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 9: church invasion was a first, it likely won't be the last.

257
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,480

263
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 11: The jobs creation numbers are a little disappointing relevant expectations,

264
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,119
Speaker 11: but the unexpected drop in the unemployment rate is surprising.

265
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 12: Good news.

266
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 11: Wages up three point eight, inflation up two point eight,

267
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 11: so things are literally becoming more affordable.

268
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 13: You want to talk about affordability, that's the raw data.

286
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 3: there's this story in the USA Today Today Today Today

287
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 3: Today in the USA Today was a story today about

288
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 3: today in the USA Today. I don't know how you're

289
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 3: supposed to say that, by the way, it's just like

290
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 3: it's a weird.

291
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 4: Thing in USA today.

292
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: Comma, Yes, but you can't say comma. That's the problem.

293
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 3: Although if you were putting a prompt into chat GPT,

294
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 3: you would tell it Comma, you know, take the dog

295
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: for walk, Comma and feed them when you get back.

296
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: You know, that's that's how you do it.

297
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 3: But here's here's a question, and it's posed in the

298
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 3: in the headline of this piece, would you pay extra

299
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 3: to talk to a human when travel plans go wrong?

300
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 3: And I would I would back that question up to

301
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 3: would you pay extra to talk to a human to

302
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 3: make the travel plans? But what they do is they

303
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 3: detail some people's experience of some people that traveled and

304
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: you know, instead of getting the human being, they had

305
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 3: the AI thing going on, and then they were asked,

306
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 3: you know, to pay more to get a human et cetera,

307
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: et cetera. So now the question has come up is

308
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 3: is human customer service a premium? Is it something that

309
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: companies should pay extra for? And David Hunt, chief operating

310
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 3: officer of Versus Media, says many customers prefer talking to

311
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: a live rep, especially when dealing with complex issues. I

312
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: believe we'll see human premium service for customer service, and

313
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 3: he ought to know. He recently worked with a major

314
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: airline that found passengers strongly preferred direct human communication during booking.

315
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 3: For me, he said this highlighted a clear willingness to

316
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 3: pay for human interaction. And I think there's a couple

317
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 3: of aspects to this question. One, isn't customer service something

318
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: that should just be included with what you're already paying

319
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: for for the ticket or service or whatever it is

320
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 3: that you're buying. And secondly, if it's not, should people

321
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 3: be expected to pay for that extra touch? Now I'm

322
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 3: curious as to your take on those two questions specifically,

323
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 3: but should it be shouldn't If I'm paying three hundred

324
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 3: dollars for one leg of an airline ticket, shouldn't some

325
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 3: degree of customer service come included with that?

326
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 4: I think we're old Kevin, because I think customer service, unfortunately,

327
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 4: and I do not promote this, has really become a

328
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 4: thing of the past. I think personal customer service has

329
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 4: become a thing of the past. I think this generation

330
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 4: is seeing exactly what we're talking about, a lot of AI,

331
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 4: a lot of do it yourself with the chatbot, with this.

332
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 4: With that, we come from a position where we're used

333
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 4: to picking up a phone and talking to somebody, and

334
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 4: I think that let's just say eight out of ten,

335
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 4: if you're going to go book something online, well, you're

336
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 4: going to book straightforward and you have no other issue.

337
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 4: It works right. Most people want to speak to somebody.

338
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 4: I do when I have something that's a little complicated,

339
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,719
Speaker 4: and I think I've gotten to the point where I

340
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 4: want to speak to somebody. And if they're going to

341
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 4: make it that difficult to talk to this chatbot thing,

342
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 4: I want to talk to somebody, I'll pay the extra

343
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 4: ten bucks or whatever it is. But you have to

344
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 4: remember two these airlines have gone really no frills. They

345
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 4: have a quarter of the staffing that they did before COVID,

346
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 4: and they're going to keep it that way in order

347
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 4: to make money and have less personnel. So air go,

348
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 4: the consumer is going to pay for that little extra

349
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 4: fluff of comfort to speak to a human being, and

350
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 4: I think that, unfortunately, that's just the way it goes.

351
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 4: I don't like it. But every time I get on

352
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 4: a chatbot, the first thing I say is what what

353
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 4: do I put in there? Agent? Agent? Agent? I want

354
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 4: to speak And the chat bok comes back and says,

355
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 4: you know, Lynn, I get it. You want to speak

356
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 4: to a lot.

357
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 3: So the chat box is both gaslighting and condescending to you.

358
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 4: Gas lighting and con By the time you get to

359
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 4: a human being, you're so angry.

360
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 3: You're so angry and it's not this, which then makes

361
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 3: the agent really funny interact with. She's like, oh, I'm

362
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 3: so glad I get to speak to this one now.

363
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 14: Good.

364
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 4: So I think that unfortunately, this is the direction we're

365
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 4: going in. And to answer your question, short answer is yeah,

366
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 4: I would pay for it.

367
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: Okay.

368
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 3: Interesting that this came up because last night, not talking

369
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 3: about travel, but talking about AI in general, my two sons,

370
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 3: who have now both taken coding classes in school. So

371
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 3: the younger one just took his first level and he

372
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 3: was being kind of ridiculed by the older one because

373
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 3: all he did was created a series of binary questions

374
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 3: and you had to pick one or the other and

375
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 3: go to the next room. And it wasn't really that

376
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: good of a thing, and I thought he did a

377
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: really good job, so I was. I was kind of

378
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 3: heaping praise on him. But we started it started a

379
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 3: longer conversation about AI, and my son was giving me

380
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 3: all these advice about, you know, well don't do that,

381
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 3: don't let AI, you know, automate your YouTube channel and

382
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 3: this and that, and I said, well I don't, I

383
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 3: don't like AI to do all of anything for me.

384
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 3: But I think that what where AI is best used

385
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 3: is when it is when it's complimented with human expertise.

386
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 2: So if you have a human that is.

387
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 3: Really really good at whatever the thing is and can

388
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 3: understand the discernment of a non kind of binary, you know,

389
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,239
Speaker 3: linear kind of thing and understand that there may be

390
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: some nuance or aesthetic that the human is going to

391
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 3: fill in the blank on that the AI can't using

392
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 3: the AI by the human to find the fastest, cheapest

393
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 3: whatever that's I don't have any problem with that at all.

394
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 3: But if I do have you know, okay chat GPT.

395
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 3: I want to go to Rome next year, but if

396
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 3: I want to take a diversionary day to you know, Grease,

397
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 3: what's the best way to do that?

398
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 2: And what should I see while I'm there?

399
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 3: You know, the human is going to say, well, what

400
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 3: are you wanting to expect and experience? And there's going

401
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 3: to be all these kinds of like nuances to it.

402
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 3: And when you put the two together, I think you

403
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 3: get the processing power of the AI and the speed,

404
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 3: but then you still have the human knowledge. And I

405
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: don't think now that they're already talking about making you

406
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 3: pay for human knowledge. I don't think you'll ever go

407
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 3: back to a day where that's going to be included anymore. Sadly,

408
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 3: I think this is showing that already, but I do.

409
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 3: I'm not opposed to the use of AI as it

410
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,679
Speaker 3: is making information more accessible. If I want to write

411
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 3: a paper on how many people got shot last year

412
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 3: and the committing of crimes by police, I can put

413
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: that into chat GPT and come back with an immediate,

414
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 3: like within ten seconds of the statistics that I need

415
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 3: to then make my case in making my argument for

416
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 3: my column. That's my human you know, perspective opinion making

417
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: being supplemented by the fact finding that AI can deliver,

418
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 3: you know, within a microsecond. And I don't know how

419
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 3: it's going to work out in the travel sector because

420
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 3: there are so many there's so many curveballs that come

421
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 3: your way. Well, I don't want to do this. I

422
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,719
Speaker 3: don't like scooters. I prefer card you know whatever, and

423
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 3: only humans. And because you know, Perillo helped us take

424
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 3: the family trip last year, and Massari did in Italy

425
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 3: as well, Nico and Enza were both asking us all

426
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 3: the time, well do you think this is more of

427
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 3: the vibe you're looking for or what about this? And

428
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 3: you know you don't want to do that because I mean,

429
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 3: we almost got booked into a hotel in Sorrento that

430
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 3: was adults only and we had three kids. Like that

431
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 3: would have been a bad thing to have happened because

432
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,959
Speaker 3: you show up and it's like, oh, you're not supposed

433
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 3: to have kids here. So anyway, Yeah, I think that

434
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 3: that's gonna and I don't think we're going back. I

435
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 3: think it's going to be more and more, and I

436
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 3: think the AI is going to continue to learn and

437
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 3: it's going to try to even attempt to.

438
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 2: Do the esthetic stuff. I just don't know if it'll

439
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 2: ever reach that level. But hold that thought. Let's take

440
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 2: a break. Come right back. We've got to pay some bills.

441
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 10: Under way.

442
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 8: Hey, I'm Steve Wyatt, and I want to invite you

443
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,760

Speaker 8: Discussion and heart reflections that will both entertain and inspire you,

447
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 8: and if we do it right, maybe deliver some genuine

448
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 8: laughter as well. We talk about not only what matters,

449
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 8: but also whyat matters.

450
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 11: Why it matters heard this in every Sunday morning at

451
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 11: seven here on AM nine to seventy.

452
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 12: The answer, what.

453
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 15: If I told you could save a baby's life for

454
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 15: just twenty eight dollars. Well, it's true. Preborn is a ministry.

455
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 15: It's been doing that with the help of people just

456
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 15: like you by offering free ultrasound sessions to pregnant girls

457
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 15: and women who might otherwise choose to end their pregnancy.

458
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 15: We know that girls and women who can see their

459
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 15: babies on ultrasound and hear their babies heartbeat are far

460
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 15: more likely to choose life. Your gift today can save babies.

461
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 15: Just twenty eight dollars can give a mother who is

462

Speaker 1: from New York It's Radio Night Life with Kevin McCullough.

517
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 3: All right, we were just talking about Ai and Linda.

518
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 3: You were mid sentence when I cut you off and

519
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 3: order the computer cut us off. What were you going

520
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 3: to say?

521
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 4: You're like my husband, he does that all the time

522
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,479
Speaker 4: on purpose.

523
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 2: Hold on, sweet, you got to pay a bill. I

524
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 2: got to do a commercial here.

525
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 4: So when things are prepackaged, right, let's use Perillo for example,

526
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 4: and you look at the itinerary for the Italy North,

527
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 4: you know classic, and you're like, okay, I love this.

528
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 4: You can book it online if you have no other issues. Right,

529
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 4: A cruise the same thing. You know what you're going

530
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 4: to get on a cruise, you know what you're going

531
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 4: and everything pretty much is laid out there for you.

532
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 4: I think it's when you do what we call an

533
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 4: f T which is an individual itinerary. I think it's again, Kevin,

534
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 4: I think it's generational. I think you want to speak

535
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 4: to somebody because we're used to doing it. However, the

536
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 4: youth of today could totally do it AI.

537
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 19: They're so antisocial, they don't want they are, but they

538
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 19: can buy tickets, they can figure out timelines, they can

539
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 19: rent a moped, they can rent a jet ski, they

540
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 19: can do an airbnb and then go like, they can

541
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 19: do a thousand things on AI that.

542
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 4: We are not comfortable doing. So I think this speaks

543
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 4: to the I hate to say it, the age of

544
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 4: the person that's participating. And I think I'm pretty woke

545
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 4: because my kids are still young. I live this every day. However,

546
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 4: when Linda is left to her own devices pnnics and

547
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 4: I'm like, I got loved this. Somebody just get somebody

548
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 4: on the phone, And that's really what we're dealing with here.

549
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 3: I think you're right though, because I think that's the

550
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 3: dividing line. And as the generations age, yeah, I think

551
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 3: the AI is going to get young, you know, younger

552
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 3: and younger, So people that aren't comfortable with it now,

553
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 3: are going to be more comfortable with it five years

554
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 3: from now. And the back end, I just think that

555
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 3: that human experience. Although what that'll do is it'll open

556
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 3: up a niche in the market for companies that do

557
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 3: human service and there will be a you know, a

558
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 3: commodity of that that people can seek out if they

559
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 3: want to, because it'll be different.

560
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,719
Speaker 2: Speaking of cruises, I don't think we already talked about this.

561
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 3: Have you ever done one of those long boat river

562
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 3: cruises in Europe? I see them advertised all the time,

563
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 3: the vikings and the you know, they sail through the

564
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 3: mountains and the rivers and all the stuff in Europe,

565
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 3: and they look like the places that they stop at

566
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 3: look amazing. But do you do you consider that cruising? Like,

567
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 3: how does that compare to this kind of cruising you.

568
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 4: Do very very different, like a regular cruise line that

569
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 4: goes on a massive ocean and and then there's a

570
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 4: lot of different activities and stuff for the kids and

571
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 4: a lot of food. This is a very different animal.

572
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 4: First of all, they're shorter, right, so I mean well,

573
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 4: when I mean shorter, most of them are like five

574
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 4: days or something, and you're cruising on a river, which

575
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 4: does not allow the velocity of the ship to you know,

576
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 4: to go forth. It's a lot more controlled, and I

577
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 4: believe that they're stopping a lot more frequently. So on

578
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 4: a regular cruise, most of the time, you're gonna have

579
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 4: a couple of days at sea. That allows a repositioning right,

580
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 4: that allows you to get to your island and reposition

581
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 4: back home in the homeport. And that's really what that's

582
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,479
Speaker 4: all about. They're different, but they're beautiful. And I know

583
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 4: a lot of people have done these river cruises up

584
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 4: the Rhine, up the Rhone, the same the you know,

585
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 4: all these places, and they love it. And I find

586
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 4: it to be I hate to say this, Kevin, because

587
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 4: we were talking about generation right. I do still find

588
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 4: this to be for the older crowd. It is not

589
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:12,719
Speaker 4: something I would jump to, although it is kind of

590
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 4: interesting to me. I don't know if they have them. Again,

591
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 4: I'm speaking about something I have not experienced. I don't

592
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 4: think they have the amenities at all of these massive

593
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 4: cruise ships that we see. You know, it's like party

594
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 4: hardy every day on these big ships with go karts

595
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 4: and ice skating rinks and old and casinos and those.

596
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 4: It's a very different, much more subtle way.

597
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 2: Of course, would you do them just to.

598
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 4: Test it out? I would love to. I would like

599
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 4: to do it for you know, a week or five days,

600
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 4: or whatever the heck it is for or five days,

601
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 4: just to see what you're like. Again, I don't know

602
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 4: if something like that can get boring a lot of

603
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 4: people don't want to cruise because they feel so confined.

604
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 3: Right well, the interesting thing about the riverboat cruises to me, like,

605
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,479
Speaker 3: at least the way Viking positions them, is that you're

606
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 3: you're landing in riverport cities obviously, as opposed to oceans,

607
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 3: So there's a lot more like quaint like villages and

608
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 3: things that you might not ever step foot in, you know,

609
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 3: if you're if you're driving there from wherever, and it's

610
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 3: and it seems like they're able to hit all of

611
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 3: these and the scene, or at least what they stick

612
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 3: in the TV ads.

613
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,720

Speaker 20: After searching for a new vendor to handle my search

648
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 20: marketing campaign, I contacted Salem Surround after seeing the great

Speaker 2: Mike Gelligher would like some clarification.

667
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 4: We are not asking ICE not to do ICE things.

668
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 13: We are asking this federal government to stop the unconstitutional

669
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 13: conduct that is invading.

670
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: Our streets each and every day. What does that mean?

671
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 7: Because the average anti ICE protesters doesn't want even the

672
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 7: existence of these ICE officers in their streets.

Speaker 21: We're now in a midterm election year and the Democrats

678
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 21: I think are panicking. They have very little to run

679
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 21: on the faces of their party now are socialists. Democrats

680
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,600

Speaker 1: The answers now from New York. Back to Radio Night Live,

695
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: yours Kevin McCollough, Welcome back. It is Radio Night Live.

696
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 3: It is Travel Tuesday, and Linda, I don't know have

697
00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 3: you noticed? So okay, let me back up complaint about

698
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 3: my last trip. So when I took the bride to

699
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 3: London for Christmas, you know, long, long flights over bodies

700
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 3: of water. That's the one time I'll splurge for a

701
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 3: little bit better seat, a little.

702
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,879
Speaker 2: Bit more leg room. You know, some of those types

703
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 2: of things.

704
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 3: I just generally I just refuse to pay full price

705
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 3: for first class or business class when I'm traveling domestically.

706
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 3: It's just I don't want to. I just don't want

707
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 3: to spend the money on that. Like I'd rather just

708
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 3: be uncomfortable for a little while and still have the

709
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 3: money than to than to spend that much. But I

710
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 3: will for the longer flight. And so I I don't

711
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 3: know how they do it all now, But there's basic economy,

712
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 3: and then there's economy plus, and then there's the not

713
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 3: first class but not business class but not economy, and

714
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 3: it's something in the middle, and then you've got the

715
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: business class, and then which has the more room, And

716
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 3: then you've got the sleepers that are all like, you know,

717
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 3: cool with their own little apartment. So it's gotten very

718
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 3: complicated and very pricey in terms of every little level.

719
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 3: Now they they hit you. I remember when I was

720
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 3: dating the Lovely Bride, she lived in California. I lived

721
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 3: in Chicago, had to take a lot of flights back

722
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 3: and forth. I would take Red Eyes a lot, and

723
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 3: sometimes they would if the plane was like, you know,

724
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 3: half empty, they'd be like, you want to come up

725
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 3: to first class or whatever and like I do it

726
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 3: like no upgrade charge, no anything. That hasn't happened in years.

727
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 3: But it's one of those things now where they figured

728
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 3: out that they can for every inch of leg room,

729
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 3: they can kill you with, you know, another twenty thirty

730
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 3: forty fifty dollars a price. And it sounds like one

731
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 3: airline is starting to learn its lesson. What's the story.

732
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 4: It's west Jet, So they are a Canadian carrier, and

733
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 4: what they tried to do was they tried to add

734
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 4: more space for passengers in the plane to load up

735
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 4: the plane. And what they did was and really from

736
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 4: what I understand from the configuration, they only removed a row. Okay,

737
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 4: but this changed the whole dynamic of the of the

738
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 4: plane and cost two inches and two inches of leg room. Kevin,

739
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 4: you're a tall guy. I mean you can attest to this.

740
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 4: That's a lot of leg room. So they had a

741
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 4: viral video on WestJet of this poor guy who was

742
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 4: average height, whose knees were like bolted against the seat

743
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 4: in front of them. So all this work that WestJet

744
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 4: did and they said we're sorry. The CEO came out

745
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 4: and said, we saw that this was all trending in

746
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 4: the wrong direction and it just didn't land the way

747
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 4: we were anticipating, and we're correcting it. So they're going

748
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 4: to spend a gazillion dollars to get the planes back

749
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 4: and remove those seats that they put in to allow

750
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 4: for extra room.

751
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 2: There you go crazy, and so does it.

752
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 3: Has it been shown to harm or help any of

753
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 3: the airlines that do it, because all of the domestic

754
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 3: carriers have pretty much gone to the nickel and dime.

755
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 3: You know, even if you're sitting in economy, but you're

756
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 3: sitting in the in the front row where there's that

757
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 3: little extra like it's it's twenty to sixty dollars more,

758
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,240
Speaker 3: depending on you know, how long the flight.

759
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 4: Is, we'll charge you for premium economy, right, which is

760
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 4: why I think what ends up happening is people like

761
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,959
Speaker 4: I don't want to sit like this anymore, and they'll

762
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 4: end up paying for first class. They'll end up paying

763
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 4: for business class because they're also from what I understand,

764
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 4: they're also not being as nice to their mileage people

765
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 4: anymore either as far as these upgrades are concerned. So

766
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,839
Speaker 4: you know, it's again it's it's we're trying to make

767
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 4: money here. Kevin and that's how they're gonna make their

768
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 4: money is by you know, an up charge for more

769
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 4: comfortable seating, which some people will do. Yeah, well, work

770
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 4: like Florida, like like the you know, the east coast

771
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 4: of Florida. What are you doing? You can act it?

772
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 4: Come on right.

773
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 3: I won't even do it to California. And that's a

774
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 3: long flight, that's a long point. But if I'm going international,

775
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:10,879
Speaker 3: I will I will consider it.

776
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to Hawaii, like I wouldn't. My girls

777
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 4: just went out there because Devon's working out there, and

778
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, my son put the ball in coach, but

779
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 4: they said it's a long haul. Personally, I wouldn't. I

780
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 4: wouldn't want it.

781
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 2: Once you saw, was it NonStop from New York to Honolulu?

782
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 4: No, it was New York, layover Atlanta, Atlanta, Honolulu and

783
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,439
Speaker 4: on the way back it was the Chicago I think

784
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 4: on the wow on the return. But listen, they're young.

785
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 4: They don't really care as much as we do. I do.

786
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 4: I care.

787
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 2: Just how long a flight is.

788
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 4: That could be about twelve hours.

789
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: I think it's at least four hours from LA.

790
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 4: It's about five from LA. So then you tack on

791
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 4: whatever six it's like eleven hours and there's a non stops.

792
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 2: Worse than going to Europe.

793
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, way worse, way worse.

794
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: But the London flight was kind of cool. It was

795
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 2: only like five and a half.

796
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 4: From London is a great jump for that reason, it's

797
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 4: like five.

798
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 3: But Italy it started to get there like it was Okay,

799
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 3: we're in the Middle East where it's still got two

800
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 3: hours left, and you're like, come.

801
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 4: On this return on the return Italy on the return

802
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,839
Speaker 4: is longer by almost two hours. So yeah, it's the same.

803
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 4: It's almost like coming back from Hawaii at the headwinds. Yep.

804
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well it's interesting from a lot of different perspectives.

805
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 3: I think that again, the ship has kind of sailed

806
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 3: for the airlines that have done it because they're just

807
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 3: giving you the option to now just pay more. I

808
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 3: think where west Jet may have gotten into trouble is

809
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 3: if you if you if you just assume that everyone's

810
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 3: going to be okay with it and you just have

811
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 3: more seats in there. You know, people have a lot

812
00:42:55,080 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 3: of options, and if airlines have thoughtfully managed their seating plans,

813
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 3: and you know, of course, the other thing for me,

814
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 3: and this is this dictates more of my decision than

815
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 3: anything else. Where do I get the miles? I'm starting

816
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 3: to fly more now because of the new show and stuff.

817
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 3: It's like, I want everybody to book me on United.

818
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 3: That's where I've got the most miles. That's where I'm

819
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 3: you know, building them up.

820
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 4: That's what I need to do a lot of the

821
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 4: But you know, you always should check Kevin too. A

822
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 4: lot of these carriers are code shairs, so when they're

823
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 4: co chairs, they can your miles will flip over to

824
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 4: your United account. So you need to see who's a

825
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 4: partner with United, so that if you do a domestic

826
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 4: carrier like west Jet, or if you're in Europe and

827
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 4: you're doing you know, a jump to another country, who

828
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 4: do they, you know, partner with most of these big airlines.

829
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 3: Like you Well, when we went to the North, United

830
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 3: got us to Frankfurt or one.

831
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 4: Of the stops Sanza with Luftan.

832
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 3: And then they shifted us to the Luftanza and I

833
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,760
Speaker 3: still got credit for the Luftanza miles.

834
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 2: That is correct, even though we weren't on.

835
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 4: Oh, they will get you on both airlines, but you

836
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 4: always want to check to see that coach shit with

837
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 4: like question that I don't know who they have.

838
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 3: It's a big deal, all right. When we come back,

839
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,000

Speaker 7: The answer, Hey, your immune system's job is to detect, deflect,

863
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 7: and destroy bacteria and viruses that you come in contact

864
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 7: with every day. Now, if we've learned anything about COVID

865
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 7: is that there's nothing quite as important as a strong

866
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 7: and powerful immune system. Twenty five years ago, naturopathic doctor

867
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 7: Dennis Black, a friend of mine, invented something called Texas Superfood.

868
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 7: It's the original superfood. With fifty five vine ripened fruits

869
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 7: and veggies, probiotics, and enzymes, you can build your body's

870
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 7: defense from the inside out with Texas Superfood. We all

871
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 7: know we should eat fresh fruits and veggies every day,

872
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 7: but with our busy schedules, most of us can't or don't.

Speaker 3: somewhere while I enjoy that second cup on Saturday mornings.

919

Speaker 4: Okay, So, actually, after reading this, Kevin from Travel and

923
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 4: Leisure about how you can stretch eleven PTO days into

924
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 4: forty one days off in twenty twenty six. Here's how

925
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 4: I think now Again, we were talking about AI before, right,

926
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 4: So this leads us to a website that is called

927
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 4: Holiday Optimizer. Okay, it's a service that provides custom vacation

928
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 4: calendars to maximize the number of days off all right,

929
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 4: Workers with fifteen vacation days can max out it forty

930
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 4: eight days off, and workers with eighteen p D days

931
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 4: could unlock fifty three. So if you're smart, you could

932
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:05,880
Speaker 4: sit at home probably and figure this out and do

933
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 4: it by yourself.

934
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 7: Right.

935
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:11,479
Speaker 4: But they're using AI to do this because what they're

936
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:15,160
Speaker 4: doing they're not saying it's forty eight days in a row, right,

937
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:21,280
Speaker 4: They're combining and it's interesting, right, they're combining the PTO

938
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 4: or the vacation days with already destined to be off

939
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 4: days Holidays, Christmas, the day before do you get you know,

940
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 4: Christmas Eve off? Well, all of a sudden, you got

941
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 4: a week, right, So that's pretty much what they're doing.

942
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,800
Speaker 4: So they break it down for the user. They select

943
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 4: the number of days off they have and the country

944
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 4: they are located. In and then pick the style that

945
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 4: they want to work with. Do you want to go

946
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 4: on seventeen long weekends? Do you want to go on

947
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,760
Speaker 4: a two week stretch in Europe? Or extended vacation mini

948
00:49:55,840 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 4: breaks that's another hip concept. Many breaks we talk about that,

949
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:05,480
Speaker 4: remember two weeks ago and extended vacations. So I think

950
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,479
Speaker 4: what they're saying is for those with eleven vacation days.

951
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:14,359
Speaker 4: For example, the company recommends eleven different trips to optimize

952
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,800
Speaker 4: their PTO, including planning trips around here we go, Kevin

953
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 4: long weekends, Martin Luther King, Junior Day, July fourth, Memorial Day,

954
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 4: and Labor Day weekend. I also think that this depends

955
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 4: on where that fall. Where the Martin Luther King. We know,

956
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 4: for example, we're always going to get a Monday, right,

957
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 4: so you could take some PTO, say Thursday Friday, right,

958
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 4: So yeah, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. That's five days there,

959
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 4: and you did nothing, You did nothing, you took it.

960
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 4: So that's what they're trying to help these brainless generations.

961
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 2: Well, let's say it.

962
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,759
Speaker 3: Linda Barillo, all right, where I'm actually going to do

963
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 3: an ourtle on this for the newsletter because I think

964
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 3: it's interesting, and I think it's I think it's being

965
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 3: a good steward. And it depends on what days your

966
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 3: company gives you. Like, different companies give different federal holidays off.

967
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 3: For instance, Salem does not get Martin Luther King Junior

968
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 3: Day off, so you know, one day this week for

969
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 3: everybody at Salem was a work day.

970
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 4: I think it's a federal you know, when you have

971
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 4: a federal holiday like that, it's good for a teacher,

972
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 4: it's good for federal employees. You're right. Most companies do

973
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 4: not give off those federal holidays, some of them.

974
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 3: Some people don't get Columbus Day, some don't take you know,

975
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 3: the different things. But anyway, interesting stuff, Linda, great show
