00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: Donkey up to day time. Damn he hogged. It's time

2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: for donkey, I mean trying to beat donkey today. No more.

3
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: not making new people do these days called donkey of

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,240
Speaker 1: the day. And it really caught me off guard.

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day today? Well,

7
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: just hilarious donkey today for Tuesday, January twentieth has me

8
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 2: very conflicted.

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: Okay, every now and then and I get a suggestion

10
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: for donkey.

11
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 2: To day, and I'm like, I can see why you

12
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 2: would want them to get Donkey of to day, but

13
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: honestly I can see where they shouldn't. Okay, we are

14
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: gonna have to take this one to Breakfast Club Court

15
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 2: because I really don't know if these folk should get

16
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: the biggest he holed. But today's potential Donkey of to

17
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 2: day is going to uh lukas Rakowski.

18
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: He's the owner of the Crystal Ballroom in Lake Mary, Florida.

19
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 3: Now.

20
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: According to News six, Orlando ty Henson and William Coney

21
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: was set to marry in May of this year at

22
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: the Crystal Ballroom and then sadly tragedy struck.

23
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: Let's go to the new six police Crystal Ballroom.

24
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: Here in Lake Mary is where Ty Hinson thought she'd

25
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 3: be marrying her best friend this coming spring. When her fiance,

26
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 3: William Coney, suddenly died just before Thanksgiving. Hinson says her

27
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 3: wedding vendors voided all of their contracts and gave back

28
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: her money.

29
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 4: All, she says, except this one. This was like a cancelation.

30
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: This was a person dying.

31
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 4: Hinson acknowledges she signed a non refundable contract with the

32
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 4: Crystal Ballroom of Lake Mary. Still, she assumed the company

33
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 4: would give back at least some of the seventy six

34
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 4: hundred dollars she paid for the wedding venue.

35
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: Her suggestion was, maybe you can do a memorial here

36
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 2: on the wedding day, and that even now sorry.

37
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 4: The owner of the wedding venue encourages clients to purchase

38
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 4: third party cancelation insurance. In a statement, the company says

39
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 4: Crystal Ballroom has served thousands of couples over many years,

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 4: while also encountering a small number of illnesses, accidents, deaths,

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 4: military deployments, and other life events. These experiences shaped our

42
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 4: policies and procedures, not to avoid responsibility, but to protect clients,

43
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 4: vendors and the venue in a fair, transparent and legally

44
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 4: sound way.

45
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: Ooh, first things first, rest in peace to William Coney,

46
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: died unexpectedly at the age of forty two from a

47
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: heart attack. This is why I encourage you all to

48
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: take your cardiovascular health serious.

49
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: This is why I.

50
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 2: Encourage you all to go see doctor Puma and go

51
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 2: get a star and heart scan. Please, please, please, brothers,

52
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 2: take your cardiovascular health serious, because I don't know if

53
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: it's the food, COVID, the vaccine stress, something as younger

54
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: people having heart attacks and strokes.

55
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: So please take care of yourself.

56
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: But this is why I get conflicted, because business is business,

57
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: and there is a reason venues take deposits. Okay, I

58
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: don't know the details of the contract. I don't know

59
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: the stipulations in the contract. Most contracts have a clause

60
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: for unforeseen, uncontrollable events.

61
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: I think it's called the.

62
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 2: Forced majure clause majure commonly known as the Act of

63
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: God clause. And I would think death would fall under that.

64
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: It's not like she just canceled for no reason. And

65
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: I would think a venue would refund the deposit just

66
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 2: out of the kindness of their heart, even if.

67
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: They legally didn't have to.

68
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 2: And that is where the situation gets perplexing for me,

69
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 2: because I'm expecting me from other people. Okay, I'm not

70
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: saying I think Crystal Ballroom is wrong because legally I

71
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: don't believe they are. From a business perspective, they aren't

72
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: at all, but from a human perspective, from a kindness perspective,

73
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: they could give tire break and give her the deposit.

74
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: Back then, I thought it was very cold to suggest

75
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: to her to do the memorial there, which sadly the

76
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 2: venue is thinking about their bottom line. Okay, they don't

77
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: want to miss out on that seventy six hundred. That's

78
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: a lot of money. I get it, But damn, did

79
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: you not.

80
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: Have a heart or does a heart matter?

81
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: When a contract was signed and business was done by

82
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 2: the way? News six Orlando confirmed that the contract states

83
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 2: all payments are non refundable.

84
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: Okay, But I agree with Ty Henson.

85
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 2: She said, she understands the legal side, but there should

86
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 2: be space for compassion. Okay, Ty said, and I agree

87
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: with her wholeheartedly. My compassion as a human being carries

88
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: over into my business. But then I understand with the

89
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 2: venue owner lukax Rokowski is coming from, because he said

90
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: they are a full service venue that coordinates space, staffing, inventory,

91
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: and third party services months in advance and incurs costs

92
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 2: on a different timeline.

93
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: Than individual vendors.

94
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 2: And they said that complex and unfortunate situations like death

95
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: have shaped their policies to be fair, transparent, and legally sound.

96
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: He noted that these rules are.

97
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:42,119
Speaker 2: Reviewed before signing to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making later.

98
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: So where are we with this? I really see both

99
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 2: sides of this situation. I understand. But people want this owner,

100
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 2: lukax Rakowski, and this venue to get donkey of the day.

101
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 2: So let's open up the phone lines one eight hundred

102
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: and five eighty five one one.

103
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: We gotta go to Breakfast Club Court. We gotta go

104
00:04:58,960 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club Court.

105
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 5: Now, people are saying that this owner and this establishment

106
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 5: should have a heart, but also this is business.

107
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: They had to pay other people.

108
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 4: They had to pay, maybe the florist, maybe the DJ.

109
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 5: Maybe the sound, maybe balloons, whatever, they had to pay

110
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 5: a lot of it had to go out. And not

111
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 5: only that, they costs in advances. Yes, they booked these

112
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 5: things out here as in advance. So if you don't

113
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 5: take this date, somebody else would have. So they gave

114
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 5: it to you. So it is what it is. But

115
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 5: what he did say was that person should have got insurance.

116
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 5: If you would have got insurance, nothing would have happened.

117
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: But I didn't hear that. That's what you said. You

118
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: said they should have got insurance. That's what you said.

119
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: I said that, Yes, I don't know. I don't have

120
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: insurance just in case something happened. No, he said, he said.

121
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: The owner noted that these rules are reviewed before signing

122
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 2: to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making.

123
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 5: Later I heard, But anyway, that's the question. Eight hundred

124
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 5: and five eighty five one.

125
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 4: Who's at fault?

126
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: Who should get the donkey?

127
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 5: Should it be the owner of the establishment or not.

128
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 5: Let's discuss eight hundred and five eighty five one oh

129
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 5: five one.

130
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club.
