SPEAKER_06 0:00

Many of you are preparing for the Memorial Day weekend. We have a lot of um Atlantic Beach. Black Bike Week is in full swing, and I was uh in the Kingston plantation area and uh driving that way. Woo! Lots of bikers rolling into town. They're bringing their giant trailers full of bikes. I don't know if people I rent them or um rent the bikes or what. I saw a lot of spiders out there, those uh trike motorcycles. So be careful, drive slow, be patient. It's only a few days. Let's get through this nice and calm. And I know the noise rattles you and uh listen, it rattles me. I'm right at 76 and uh 17. So yeah, all night long. All night long. And my dogs are freaking out and blah, blah, blah. But by uh Monday morning, they'll all be out of town. And um can't wait. No offense, bikers. I love y'all, but love to see you go as well. Thanks for your money. Yeah. Bye. You know, it's it's just once once once in a while is okay. It's just like hundreds of it's once a year. It's fine. No, it's more than once a year. It's three times a year.

SPEAKER_06 1:27

I mean, live pipes save lives, but there were a lot of wrecks.

SPEAKER_10 1:31

Well, they do though.

SPEAKER_06 1:32

I sat in a lot of traffic because of a lot of motorcycle wrecks, and a lot of lives have been permanently changed.

SPEAKER_10 1:38

I grew up in a motorcycle family. I like that sound. The Harleys. I don't like the mmm, angry mosquito sound.

SPEAKER_06 1:44

I'm not saying I don't like the sound. I'm just saying non-stop for a week outside my bedroom window gets a little old.

SPEAKER_10 1:54

I'm just saying I got used to it.

SPEAKER_06 1:56

Go out to the country and go have a, you know, go out there and do it. These aren't roads you should be riding motorcycles on anyway. You said it yourself. You don't like riding on these roads. Everybody's looking for an address, where to turn, they're looking for a driveway. And it's not this, these roads are not meant for motorcycle cruising. Parking, perhaps, but cruising, not so much. So it's unsafe for everybody involved. It gets old really quick. Uh, you know, you can sit and watch it, but people who live here, it's just it's loud and constant. It's you know, it's a lot. So I hey, come on down, have your fun. Bye-bye. All of you. I mean, I don't mind it, but i I kind of do after a while.

SPEAKER_10 2:51

I was gonna say, no, you mind it.

SPEAKER_06 2:53

It's just where I live. I guess I need to move out to like, I don't know. Aynor. Where it's nice and quiet. That works. Yeah. You never hear anything bad happening in Ayner. It's really quiet in Ayner.

SPEAKER_10 3:24

Um Well wait, somebody'll pop in.

SPEAKER_06 3:26

Yeah. Somebody'll say, I live in Ayner. You know, it's funny. Um when I first uh was looking around here, I I went and looked at a school for my daughter in Sumter. And we were vacationing here and I said, Oh, I said, there's this really great school, like a charter school in Sumter. I said, Let's go take a ride and go look at it. So we drove all the way out to Sumter. It seemed so far away. I don't know how many hours, three hours? And we drove all the way to Sumter. What a quaint little town. Have you ever been to Sumter? Our boss lives there.

SPEAKER_10 4:04

I think we drove through it.

SPEAKER_06 4:06

What a cute little town that is. And we looked at some houses there, like old, you know, suite homes. Uh I mean, really a beautiful town. I don't know what kind of community it is, but our boss lives there. It's gotta be pretty good, right? So I was telling him, I said, you know, I love real estate, and there's you can get a lot for your money in Sumter. Did you realize how much the houses have gone up here in value? Mm-hmm. Oh, I know. It's they're not coming down.

SPEAKER_10 4:39

Oh, I know, because of our house.

SPEAKER_06 4:41

Crazy, crazy amount.

SPEAKER_10 4:43

Um, and so uh we're getting positive uh uh l response here from uh people that live in Ayner. Becky, first choice. Yeah, uh plumbing. She lives there, loves it, been there since 1994. Wow. Uh Miller time, love Ayner. We don't get all the BS, he says.

SPEAKER_06 4:59

That's what I'm talking about. There you go. Yeah, low on the BS meter. Yeah. Ahner has um a nice little town area. Yeah. Yeah. Um anyway, we had some uh horrific news yesterday regarding NASCAR driver Kyle Bush. And whether you followed NASCAR or did not, and I don't really follow it, but uh Javi and I uh like watch some of the races some of the time because you know they're they're just really fun to watch. And everybody knows Kyle Bush's name. I didn't realize he was only 41. I know I cannot believe he suddenly died. And if you hadn't heard, um it I mean, he is a huge, huge champion in NASCAR. And um what we know is a few weeks ago while riding a race.

SPEAKER_10 5:58

I found it.

SPEAKER_06 5:59

Okay.

SPEAKER_10 6:00

Here is the audio from two weeks ago at Watkins Glen.

SPEAKER_09 6:04

Kyle Bush uh has been suffering from a sinus cold all week, uh, lost five spots on that pit stop. He has asked to have medical attention available after the race. Here's his radio.

SPEAKER_08 6:17

And uh can somebody try to find Bill Heisel, uh Doctor guy, tell him I need him after the race, please. Hey, do you want Mr. Bill at your car and uh uh at your bus after the race? Uh but I'm gonna need a shot copy. He's gonna he'll be at your bus.

SPEAKER_10 6:35

There you go. So that was two weeks ago. He won the truck race, I believe, because they a lot of these guys, these really prolific racers, like him, who is just he's an amazing racer, and you know, he he was the bad guy, and that's a role that he relished, but he really wasn't. He's actually a really nice guy. Uh, but you know, he he played the jerk, and that's you know, it worked for him. Rowdy. That's uh that was his nickname. Anyway, uh he won, I believe it was the truck race, uh, this past weekend. So seemingly well enough to race to continue to race, and then my wife, I was actually taking a shower. My wife came running in. She goes, Oh my goodness, did you hear? And I was like, I'm in the shower. And she's yelling at me through the door. She goes, Kyle Bush died. Yeah. And obviously, we we we watch, you know, CBS News. We leave it on just so I can monitor the mainstream media news and this they led with this.

SPEAKER_07 7:25

And good evening. We begin with the news just coming in that NASCAR driver Kyle Bush, 41 years old, has died suddenly today after what his family described as severe illness. One of the greatest racers of all time, a record 234 National Series wins. Bush had earlier dropped out of all activity this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway, including the Crown Jewel, the Coca-Cola 600. His family later confirming that he was hospitalized instead. And now this terrible news. He is survived by a wife and two children, and we all have so many questions tonight. CBS News correspondent Tom Hansen joins me now. He's been looking into it. Tom, good evening.

SPEAKER_01 8:05

Good evening to you, Tony. Well, this is a devastating loss for the entire NASCAR community. Kyle Bush was an absolute legend in the sport, and here is what we know so far. Bush was a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and died today at the age of 41. The Bush family said earlier Kyle had experienced a severe illness resulting in hospitalization and was undergoing treatment. He last raced on May 17th, two days after coming off another win in Dover, Delaware. He was born in Las Vegas, and his career spanned more than two decades. Many people calling Bush a champion among champions. Now, just a short time ago, a joint statement was released from the Bush family. Richard Childress Racing and all of NASCAR saying we are devastated to announce the sudden and tragic passing of Kyle Bush. They went on to say a future Hall of Famer. Kyle was a rare talent, one who comes along once in a generation. He was fierce, he was passionate, he was immensely skilled, and he cared deeply about the sport and fans. They also added, his sharp wit and competitive spirit sparked a deep emotional connection with race fans of every age, creating the proud and loyal, rowdy nation. And after one of his recent races races, Bush reportedly said this: You never know when the last one is going to be, so cherish them all. Trust me. Now the details surrounding Bush's death remain unclear, but we do know that he is survived by his wife and two kids, as you said, Tony.

SPEAKER_06 9:26

So there you go. That poignant interview that he did, like on the road there at the race after the race, and he she says I have it. It was it was really incredible how she asked the question because she probably just witnessed him celebrating like he won for the first time. Yeah. And that's when she asked the question. Yeah, here it is.

SPEAKER_05 9:50

Kyle Bush, your 69th victory in this series, your fifth right here. Why do these moments never get old, Kyle?

SPEAKER_00 9:58

Because you never know when the last one is, you know. So uh I know all too well, unfortunately, with um the cup stuff, but um, you know, here with the truck stuff right now is um it's awesome just to be a part of Spire Motorsports. Thanks to to Jeff and Dan and Mr. H for the opportunity. Hendrik Cars.com. I'm sure it looked great out front leading the race, and it wasn't just Kyle Larson doing it, so he's gotta slam Larson in a nice fun way.

SPEAKER_10 10:24

But yeah, there it is.

SPEAKER_06 10:26

Yeah, I mean it's kind of like watching wrestling, I guess, that they have these rivalries, but deep down inside they have a lot of respect for each other and they play it up for the fans, and you you need to root for a hero, you need to root for a villain, and and uh in fact the age old storyline. Yeah. And in fact, Sean Hannity's new podcast on April 21st. Um, I didn't I didn't listen to it, but I saw a clip of it. Uh Sean Hannity interviewing Kyle Bush. I mean, how unbelievable is that?

SPEAKER_10 10:59

I know.

SPEAKER_06 11:00

So uh you know if you go back on Spotify and and watch it, uh I haven't watched it yet because I just saw late last night that Hannity actually had him on as a guest. You know, Hannity just started this podcasting thing with um this hangout with uh with Hannity.

SPEAKER_10 11:20

Yeah, that's a relatively new uh little adventure of his. Dale uh Jr. Earnhardt Jr. Everybody knows that name, Dale Earnhardt, of course we're talking about his son Jr. said, you know, for many years they basically hated each other, or so they thought. And then he had a chance to speak with him in recent years. Yeah, said he's a great guy, and you know, I almost feel bad that we didn't like one another over a ridiculous misunderstanding. Some of the hatred between the drivers is real, uh, some of it is hyped up, like you said. It's a narrative. I mean, you know, it's show business. Come on. But some of these guys really get mad at each other and they hold on to grudges for a long time. And you'll see like 12 races later, oh, I have my shot. I'm gonna hammer him into the wall, and then that just reignites it again and it goes on. Jeff Gordon and uh Tony Stewart. That was a good one back in the day. And of course, Dale Jr. just made or Dale Sr. rather made everybody mad because he was a winner. Same thing here with this guy. I mean, he just he would win a lot, and it just made other drivers angry because they they couldn't figure out, you know, crappy conditions, crappy car, a rough track, and he's out there just hammering it. And they're like, how does he you know what I mean? Yeah, and they it's like a jealousy. How did he do it? It just had that natural instinct. The really good drivers have that natural instinct, no matter what they're handed, a crappy car, a crappy track, conditions, whatever. And they're just able to just, you know, it's it's pretty incredible. And yeah, he's one of those guys. He definitely needs to be thought of up there like with uh uh Richard Petty and a Dale Sr. and and a you know Tony Stewart. He's just an amazing driver. And and we got to see him, my wife and I, because we went to a lot of races, more before kids, but we saw him at Bristol and when they were doing the driver introductions, and you always got the smattering of fans, boo, and he's loving it and eating it up. And then the other fans who loved him were you know he's high five and him. It was just I watched him do that and how he re It's like he's a good guy.

SPEAKER_06 13:18

He's working the room.

SPEAKER_10 13:19

Yeah, he's not a criminal like they made him out to be, you know, this bad guy. He's not, he's actually a good guy. Yeah, and we and ever since then, it was like, yeah, he doesn't bother me anymore. I like him.

SPEAKER_06 13:27

Yeah. Anyway, and I guess as you get into your 40s and you get moving on, you know. Yeah, the little kid villain thing kind of wears off.

SPEAKER_10 13:35

Exactly.

SPEAKER_06 13:36

Become the elder statesman of the group, and then you have children and you want to be a good role model, you know. Um, and so it was so cute when he was talking about his kids and how his son was like overwhelmed by the crowd, so when he says, But now they ask him for his autograph. Um, and I think his daughter is like a good driver or something, he was saying.

SPEAKER_10 13:56

So his wife apparently is on X and she posts all kinds of family stuff, uh-huh. Not racing stuff, mostly family stuff. Oh, okay. And it gives you an insight of the kind of dad he was and husband he was. And how can you hate a guy like that?

SPEAKER_06 14:09

I mean, what one of the racers said was especially his team member, I can't remember the guy's name now. It said former teammate, and they had his name, and he said that was the best thing to watch, the transformation of that, um, from this, like you said, you know, this villain, villainous character on the race track to dad, and that's who he had become. And you know, it changes you sometimes. Sure, it does, it changes you for the better, you know, it just makes you more patient and it makes you love outside yourself, and you realize, hey, there's more to life than this. I could still be good at this, but I need to be great at being a father. And um, that's basically what this um former teammate was saying, and and I thought it was um I think I thought he gave such a great tribute.

SPEAKER_10 14:59

As a relatively new dad, just seven and a half years under my belt, I know exactly his thought process. Yeah. You know, I I don't have the the you know riches and the fame that he has, but I know to love something so much and see it shift without losing it. I'm talking about my music.

SPEAKER_06 15:17

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_10 15:18

Because of my children.

SPEAKER_06 15:19

Yeah, I mean, you were up on stages and you're, you know, you love to perform. You I mean, we both have that bug. You know, we're just performers and entertainers and you know, and you're putting on a show.

SPEAKER_04 15:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 15:35

But when it boils down to it, you know, it's about family and kids, and you know, you have the same desires other people have. Yeah. But you know, I remember him being in the news recently suing Pacific Life Insurance. Um, and that had piqued my interest because he felt uh they were uh bamboozled by the company and they sued and they settled out of court for mil they he had an eight and a half million dollar lawsuit against this company, life insurance company, which is so weird, the butt that we're talking about that, but um back in March, and um and they settled out of court and he said they were lied to. They were told that they were gonna have all this protection and all all sorts of stuff they were told in order to sign on, and I think he put in over 10 million dollars into this life insurance investment that he felt like they were you know kind of like a bait and switch, and they sued them and they settled out of court. Um, so I don't know what he ended up getting from that, if he got anything back, but honestly, I mean that was they just settled in March. I just thought that was an interesting thing because one time I felt I was bamboozled and I was like, I didn't even think you could like sue for that. You know what I mean? Um, like someone tells you this is the best thing for you, but is it? Um, and you feel like they're they're doing it for the wrong reasons afterwards, after you're locked in and you you're about to get penalized for putting your own money in there.

SPEAKER_10 17:14

Here it is. Kyle and Samantha Bush reached an out-of-court settlement, details not provided, with Pacific Life Insurance Company, their alleged $8.5 million uh retirement scheme loss because the settlement was released pri uh really reached privately. They didn't release the exact monetary payout.

SPEAKER_06 17:33

I just found that to be interesting, yeah. That's why he was like kind of fresh in my mind. I was like, oh, I was like, that's interesting. That's like kind of setting a precedent. Like I never thought you could sue a company for like you feel like you've been duped into a bad investment. But you signed on the dotted line, so if you didn't read the paperwork, that's on you. But the paperwork is, you know, six font and 300 pages, and you know you know you're getting screwed somewhere, and um, and that's what happened. So anyway, I w I wonder if that what the settlement was, but hey, listen, um that was uh life insurance, so interesting.

SPEAKER_02 18:20

Yeah. On Memorial Day, we raise our flags and bow our heads to those who never came home.

SPEAKER_06 18:27

We will always remember the sacrifices that were made.

SPEAKER_02 18:30

The Liz Callaway Show with Nick Summers.

SPEAKER_06 18:48

We're late again? Yeah, we're really late. It's okay, Nikki. Relax. Relax. Just breathe in. No. I can't handle being late. And out.

SPEAKER_10 18:56

How about this? Uh, I like it when uh when the budget lines text line, the listeners, Dandy Don. He said, Hey, can you mention that on Monday, VFW post 10420, Merle's Inlet, Memorial Day ceremonies starting at noon.

SPEAKER_06 19:10

So on what day?

SPEAKER_10 19:11

That would be Monday, yeah. All right. And that is their uh uh VFW post 10420 in Myrtle's Inlet. So thank you, Dandy Don. I hope you have a uh great service there.

SPEAKER_06 19:20

Well, actually, that's exactly what I was gonna do in this segment was mention the main Myrtle Beach Memorial Day events according to Chat GPT.

SPEAKER_04 19:30

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 19:30

Um, but and then invite anyone who uh wants to contribute to the list to text in on the Budget Blinds text line, 843-798-TALK, 798-8255. We'll be in the parade tomorrow morning uh at uh the Market Common. It is the America 250 Red, White, and Remember Parade happening at 10 a.m. Military vehicles, marching bands, veteran groups, patriotic floats. There will also be a family picnic at Grand Park immediately after the parade with live music, exhibits, family activities, free food. That's interesting. Um, and then on Monday, the 25th of May at 9 a.m., it's a solemn veterans march, not a festive parade. It includes a Battlefield Cross tribute. It's called the Jack Platt Veterans March. And I remember when they created this because it didn't make sense. Why are we having a parade on Saturday when we should be doing a Memorial Day parade on Memorial Day? But we have bike week going on, and so uh it kind of interferes with all the logistics of road closures and loops and all of that, and they persisted. There was a group of people that persisted, and they said, No, we're going to walk this no matter what. And they did, and I was at the first one, and it was incredible. Awesome. And it was a smattering of people that attended, and I came on the air the next day, and I said, Wow, I was really disappointed about how little uh the turnout was, and it really should be more. And it has grown over the years, and things always start small and they get bigger and bigger, and that's gonna be happening at 9 a.m. Monday morning, right in the city of Myrtle Beach on Ocean Boulevard. So uh that is really fantastic. It's kind of like uh the locals reclaiming of their beach. So I like it. We have some other events I'm gonna talk about. Uh when we come back, we're gonna take a quick break.

SPEAKER_02 21:49

The Liz Callaway Show with Nick Summers is coming back. We are WTKN.

SPEAKER_06 21:55

Okay, Nikki, I have something really important to share about Um Little River Medical Center.

SPEAKER_04 22:02

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 22:02

So I printed it out, but um when I run up and get it quick? No, no. I'll get it for um later. But I wanted to make sure I get this correct. There is a big event that's happening. It's called the sixth annual Strikeout Stigma Mental Health Awareness Night. Um, and that is going to be held on it was hosted. Hmm. Uh this this this is very confusing. Uh so let me get this correct here. This is going to be on May 30th. We're not at May 30th yet, right?

SPEAKER_10 22:45

No, that's next Saturday.

SPEAKER_06 22:47

Okay. I wanted to make sure because it says it was hosted. That's the wrong is being hosted. Is being hosted. Okay, so I just want to make sure I get this correct. So the sixth annual strikeout stigma mental health awareness night is going to be on May 30th at the Pelican Stadium in Myrtle Beach. And it's presented by Lighthouse Behavioral Health Hospital. It is the annual event to raise awareness about mental health, support substance use recovery, and break the stigma surrounding mental illness. So if you want to find out more information about this or to get involved in some way, the Myrtle Beach Pelicans page is where you need to go. Now, the Little River Medical Center is a tremendous supporter of this event and they will be on site. They want to help eradicate the stigma of getting mental health support. They encourage people to attend this event, and they encourage people to find support at Little River Medical Center. Now, as you know, the Little River Medical Center is a center that offers not only medical care and dental care and women's health care, but also behavioral health. And so this might be a great opportunity to see all the different resources that are out there May 30th at the Myrtle Beach Pelican Stadium. Now, the Little River Medical Center has multiple locations, not just in Little River, but also in Aynor. They also have it in Lor uh Loris, the city of Myrtle Beach, South Strand, Carolina Forest as well. And they accept major insurance policies, including Tri-Care. So if you're a veteran and you're struggling, uh behavioral health is something that they do there. They also do 3D mammograms, lab services, and pharmacy services. So find out more. Go to LRMcenter.com.

SPEAKER_10 24:54

Lizzie. Yes. Mike the AR guy who cracks us up with his silly posts and texts. I sent a picture. You gotta look at it on the Budget Blinds text line. Said, hey, see you guys tomorrow morning. I'll be at the parade. I'm in it with my Revolutionary War reenactor group. Oh, Marion's Brigade. And he's got a picture of him all dressed up. Mike the AR guy will be Mike the Musket guy.

SPEAKER_06 25:19

Wow. Look at that.

SPEAKER_10 25:21

And Julie Harrington. Scouts will be handing out USA bracelets at the parade tomorrow as well.

SPEAKER_06 25:26

Cool.

SPEAKER_10 25:28

Boy Scouts.

SPEAKER_06 25:29

Wow.

SPEAKER_10 25:30

So nice.

SPEAKER_06 25:56

You know, it's interesting. A lot of people were talking about how race car drivers, and we were talking about Kyle Bush, how they are just trained to just push through whatever is going through on in that vehicle.

SPEAKER_10 26:09

He wants one race with a broken foot.

SPEAKER_06 26:12

I do remember that. That was him? Yeah, he's a tough guy. Yeah. His whole career. He's tough. And pushing through is dealing with the pain, but sometimes that comes with a price because you cause more damage or you cause you you skip over certain symptoms and you're like, oh, I'll just rob some dirt on it. Um, and so I don't know what happened to Kyle Bush. I really don't know. I hope we do find out because a lot of times these high-profile cases of whatever situation or sequence events that happened uh prevent other deaths along the way. And sometimes you present with one ailment, but it's really something else, and it goes misd misdiagnosed for quite some time. I've been hearing a lot of stories um of misdiagnoses or delay in diagnosis. And that's why it's really important. I know we want to trust our doctors, and I'm not it just doesn't happen just here. It happens everywhere. You know, you say, Oh, New York has the best hospitals, or you know, Pennsylvania has it, Florida has the best. It happens everywhere. People are getting lost in the shuffle, they're not identifying their symptoms, all their symptoms, or whatever, they ignore stuff, and you don't want to be like, you know, the sky is falling all the time or crying wolf, right? And yet things like that happen. So um, yeah.

SPEAKER_10 27:44

Well, you all you have to remember this because I I couldn't remember I had to look it up, in all fairness, according to Johns Hopkins, the uh the researchers. Uh I I didn't know where it was. I thought it was number two, but it's number three. The number three uh cause of death behind heart disease and cancer is medical errors or malpractice. Errors mean, you know, there's no malice involved here. Yeah, they just they messed up. Yeah. So it's the number three cause. Yeah. That's just a statistics that it is. That is sadly true.

SPEAKER_06 28:16

But it happens like, you know, nurses giving the wrong medication.

SPEAKER_10 28:20

Usually it's doctors. I'll stick up for nurses on this one.

SPEAKER_06 28:22

Oh. I don't know. Uh dosing is off. Um, that's what happened to that woman. Uh in uh what state was that? I can't remember. She went in for a tummy tuck surgery, and it said woman dies hours after tummy tuck surgery, and everybody was like, What? What happened? The plastic surgeon did everything he was supposed to do. She was she came out of there with flying colors, the nurse gave her way too much fentanyl and killed her. That's what killed her. It wasn't the tummy tuck surgery, and the plastic surgeon's like everything was fine when she came out of surgery. So there are a lot of situations where, you know, you almost made it. And so uh the the husband was like, she was fine until they pushed something into her IV, and then she just became lifeless. Um, and so uh, you know, it's crazy stuff, and you just don't know. You really don't know. Uh I do I don't know who to trust. Things go wrong, and you feel bad questioning everybody, but I do it when I bring my dog to the vet. You know the weight of this dog, right? How much anesthesia, like double check the weight.

SPEAKER_10 29:37

Don't ever apologize for double checking and asking questions. You my wife is the exact same way on everything, health related. I have to. It drives them nuts, except for our the pediatrician we have, who when she was a baby nurse, worked with him at the hospital. Yeah. So he knows her. And he even said he goes, I know you're gonna ask. He goes, Go ahead. And she has a list of everything.

SPEAKER_06 30:00

Well. Um, and so uh She's a great health advocate. If you can't help, and that's the problem that I worry about is like she's a great health advocate, but will you be a great health advocate if she needs help? Like, that's the whole thing.

SPEAKER_10 30:16

She has told me this many times. No, she has. She goes, You've been better stand up, you better ask questions. If I'm incapacitated, ask these. She tells me all the time. She is training me.

SPEAKER_06 30:27

I tell Javi the same thing. I say, listen, I'm gonna fight for my death, to my death for you. Don't just go, yes, sir, yes, ma'am, yep, go ahead. I trust you. Don't ever say that.

SPEAKER_10 30:42

I went as far as asking. What if they tell me there's no chance in H E double hockey sticks and I need to pull the plug? She said, Don't do it.

SPEAKER_06 30:51

Triple check.

SPEAKER_10 30:52

Yep. She said, Don't be pulling any plugs.

SPEAKER_06 30:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 30:56

Because I I can tell you a ton of stories of people out of nowhere waking up and going, what happened?

SPEAKER_06 31:01

I know, but there's a very uh very interesting fine line on all of that. I know. Because if they're pushing you for organ harvesting, I know, that is, you know, that is the scary part. And you're like, okay, what's the motive there? And then if if if it's something else, you know, listen, I went through it with my dad.

SPEAKER_04 31:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 31:20

You know? You're on life support. They tell you everything. They say, well, we all looked at it. We had all the administrators look at it. I'm like, I don't care what the administrators say, I know what they want. Um, but you know, they say, um, yeah, there's no way the brain this, the brain that. And it's like, how do you actually know? Okay, I'm looking at the x-ray. Okay, I see what you're saying, but you're talking about taking a loved one off of life support and you're making that decision. That is like the worst thing on the planet. And we talked about estate planning, and it's like, who do you want making that decision? It is like, like you said, right? Your wife's like, listen. It happens a lot.

SPEAKER_10 32:08

I know, and because we've had this conversation and she's not afraid to talk about this stuff, being, you know, with the medical background and being a nurse for you know she's been in the medical field for almost 30 years, but as a registered nurse for 20. So she's yeah, she's no dummy. And she said, these are the questions you're gonna ask. I don't want to hear it that I'm brain dead. I don't want to hear any of it. Exactly. You keep pushing. Keep me alive.

SPEAKER_06 32:32

I know. She doesn't, I mean, the chances of that happening are nil, but well, of course, I hope. Yeah, but the thing is, is like and it hurts. I don't even like I don't even want to think about you being in that position.

SPEAKER_10 32:43

You have to. I get sad. You know, I was like, I don't want to think of that. I know, but you have to. She says the same thing. You have to. She goes, you have to be my advocate. She goes, you know, I'm gonna be yours. I said, Oh, I know. I said, they maybe I pity the doctor. So do I, and I've seen it in oh no, I've seen it. My it's it's hilarious. The doctor, my physician, general practitioner, he already says, like, let me talk to your wife. Okay, what blood panels do you want?

SPEAKER_06 33:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 33:12

And she tells him what blood panels to and okay, yeah, I can see why you'd want that. Okay, no problem. That wasn't anything he was gonna order, but because she asked for it, he puts it on there.

SPEAKER_06 33:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 33:23

And she goes, You don't know how many times this goes on in the hospital setting. We nurses have to say, what about this? What about that? What about this? Because they're in and out. The nurses are there caring for those patients 12 hours, 13 hours at a crack. Then they come back and they do it again.

SPEAKER_06 33:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 33:38

So, yeah, I trust my wife 100%. She's training me to so she can trust me.

SPEAKER_06 33:44

Yeah. It's a lot. And they have to have all that bedside matter. I mean, so many times people come out of the hospital and say, Oh my god, they saved my life. But the nurses were fabulous. I love the nurses, you know what I mean? Um, they always comment because those are the ones that are giving all the care. You know, the minute to minute. Uh, and you hate to push that button, but sometimes you're like, ah, I think it's time to push the button. I think it's time to push the button. So, um, yeah. Um, I like like we said, could Kyle Bush have been saved? What was going on? I don't know. I don't know. Um, so I would like to know. Because it might save somebody else down the road. So that would be nice if we could really find out um what was going on there.

SPEAKER_10 34:36

I I I got a video. I think my baby is talking. Your baby is talking. I think so. Hold on. That's Nicolina. I'm waiting to hear it. Send me a video she's not saying it. It's a four-minute video. I'll have to find the minute. When she actually I got excited. It's like, what's she saying, mama, dad-da-baba? What is she saying? Oh, yeah. Sorry. Sorry. Wow. Didn't mean to put the show on hold. I just got excited for a minute.

SPEAKER_06 35:25

Uh, all right. Someone corrected me.

SPEAKER_10 35:28

Oh, how's that?

SPEAKER_06 35:30

Yeah. You get two lives. One on earth, one in heaven.

SPEAKER_10 35:33

Well, yeah, of course.

SPEAKER_06 35:34

Or hell.

SPEAKER_10 35:36

Yeah, but that's not our call. Yeah. Is it?

SPEAKER_06 35:40

No. I mean, I think that's just one your soul lives on, it never dies, so you really don't have two lives. That's just how how I know. Um okay. On a podcast, they said he became unconscious on Wednesday. He was driving a simulator.

unknown 36:02

I wonder what happened.

SPEAKER_10 36:04

I don't know, and I'm really it's very perplexing and it's very sad.

SPEAKER_06 36:08

You know, I'm thinking, like, if he felt pressure that he thought was a sinus infection, and he said, I need a shot, what do you need a shot for? Or a sinus infection?

SPEAKER_10 36:19

Well, first thing my wife said was, was he getting uh steroid?

SPEAKER_06 36:24

Yeah, I don't maybe to reduce inflammation. Right. But maybe he had something else going on in his brain that felt like a sinus pressure. Maybe there was something else going on. Like an aneurysm or a tumor. Could have been an aneurysm, could have had he felt like it was a sinus infection because that pressure that you feel feels like the head is like a knife in your head?

SPEAKER_10 36:50

Had a sinus infection and untreated and it went to the eye, they lost the eye. Wow. I'm telling you, the the infections untreated can be nasty, especially up in the head area. If it gets into that brain, you're we don't know any of this because nobody's telling us. And the family doesn't, you know, it's their business.

SPEAKER_06 37:09

No, I know, but they because of his fame and notoriety, they could help so many people. And they might they might eventually um say something.

SPEAKER_10 37:18

It just happened, so I get it.

SPEAKER_06 37:20

Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, they don't care about us right now. Oh they're like internally, um, you know, it's really so tragic. Forty one years old, Kyle Bush. Uh, we'll be back in a moment.
