It is 47 here in Anchorage and in Palmer, 50 in Soldatin, a 45 in Homer, 43 in Talkeetna. 48 in Fairbanks, Prudhoe Bay at 14, Seattle at 55, New York at 75. Akaroa, New Zealand is getting some rain in 53. Pensacola, Florida, 80. Tampa, Florida, 82. Tifton, Georgia, 80. And Lake Havasu City, 85. Nice. Well Crash, how much would you pay for a letter From the Titanic. Nothing. That's the end of that story. Well, there was a letter that was written that apparently was mailed.
before the Titanic went on its maiden voyage. It stopped in a couple of places before it headed out to the Atlantic on its ill-fated trip. And it went for almost $400,000. What? Yep. It was a postcard. I don't know. How does owning that make your life any better? Well, somebody's got that kind of money, and that's what they want. Anyway, in England, they don't call them postcards. They call them letter cards.
A letter card penned by one of... In case he was wondering the whole reason he'd read this story is so he could do that one word in an English accent. Hey, I got relatives. I know. Come on. I know. A letter card. by one of Titanic's most well-known survivors from on board the ship days before it sank. It's not Leonardo DiCaprio. He died. No, no. sold for £300,000 or $399,000 at auction. In the note written to the seller's great-uncle on April 10, 1912,
The first-class passenger Archibald Gracie wrote the ill-fated steamship. Here's what he said. Okay, now this guy's on the ship. And he's, you know, he's heading for his first little port-a-call. I think it was in Ireland or someplace. He says, it's a fine ship. but I shall await my journey's end before I pass judgment on her. Well, how'd that end up for you there, Archibald? If your name's Archibald, you have to be from the year 1912. I think it's a rule.
But I mean, I think he got it right. It's a fine ship, but I'm not really going to say much about it until I get where I'm going. Fine, it was the iceberg that was the problem. Well, yeah, but they didn't have to hit it. Did you ever see the movie? Did you ever see it? No, I never saw the movie. You want me to tell you how it ends? I know how it ends. You realize Fenway Park opened on that day? Oh, the day the Titanic sank? Yeah. It's ironic and makes sense. Yes.
Kate Winslet's character in that movie was horrible. There was room for Leo on that door. She just let him drown. You haven't seen the movie, so you don't get the reference. A movie made a ridiculous amount of money at the box office, which means people went and saw it more than once. And walking into the theater, you knew how it was going to end. You know what I mean? There's no suspense there. Right. It hit an iceberg, or actually scraped an iceberg, I guess, to be more truthful.
I guess the rivets in the side of the ship were not of the finest iron or steel, whatever they were using. And they popped. 1,500 people died. I mean, that's just awful. And they sunk off of Newfoundland. How many people lived, I wonder? I think about 700. Wow, so like two-thirds of the people on the ship died. Yeah, they didn't even have enough lifeboats either. It was just one mistake after another. There was one ship that was really close, and they had turned off their radio.
Oh, wow. This was the first time I guess they had actually used the call sign SOS. Didn't know that. And so the ship that actually saved most of them was the RMS Carpathia. And that was quite a ways away. from the from the Titanic but I mean the water temperature was 28 degrees Just the fact that people were in that for any length of time is just unbelievable. So there weren't enough lifeboats. They didn't fill the lifeboats. It was really kind of a mess. And a lot of people died needlessly.
Just unbelievable. But they have recovered a lot of artifacts from the Titanic. And there is some question about, you know, should you just leave it alone? I mean, it's really, truly a grave site, you know, and I don't know. In a way, it's a bit ghoulish. to get stuff from the bottom of the sea. But I guess if it's in a debris field, they thought that was okay to do. But somebody made some money on this thing.
300 grand. This guy just, you know, grabbed a postcard and started writing on it back in 1912. Who would have expected, you know, that it did that? Not me. No, but you would have never bought the thing. Yeah, $400,000, I'll spend it on a postcard. Are you kidding me? Some people have too much money.
Yeah, but now if it were from the Philadelphia Eagles, you might do that. I don't know. $400,000. I mean, I would probably... take half of it i don't know what i would do i don't know what i would do with that kind of money i couldn't even tell you i mean that's just a foreign thought to me Well, think about what you could buy with 400 grand. Oh, I do. I'd be happy with 400. Or 40. Right.
That's a couple of weeks' salary there. Today, on the way to school, my daughter at their school, they give them this checklist, and it's got like 30 things on it. You've got to pick, I think, six you have to do. And they get checked off. I was like, make dinner. or schedule some sort of appointment, figure out a tip at a restaurant, do a load of laundry, do that kind of stuff. And one of them was using ATM.
So we stopped by the ATM on the way to school, and I wouldn't give her my pen because she's kind of a criminal. So I posted, I put in... She's not a criminal. She's a great kid. She would steal my debit card and hitchhike to the gas station. and buy a bunch of cigarettes. That's what she would do. No. No, not the one I know. She's a great kid. So, what...
So what I did was we stopped and I said, oh, here's what we'll do. We'll get you a couple of snacks for like after school, okay? That's good. But here, use the ATM, do the blah. So I pulled out 40 bucks, right? But her snacks only ended up about $19. So I have a 20. This is relevant to how my money, the way I think of money is different for most people.
So I had a $20 bill left over and all day long I felt rich. I keep pulling out of my pocket and snapping it in front of people like they've never seen. $20 bill before because I feel like the richest man in the world because I have a new crisp $20 bill in my wallet. Yeah, well, when you go to a restaurant, you try to get a better table. You say to the maitre d', hey, say hi to Abe Lincoln. Yes, yeah, no doubt. Is that who's on the $20 bill?
No, he's on the five, right? He's on the five. He's on the five, yeah. Five bucks? What do you think I am, Rich? You know who's on the 20? Andrew Jackson? Yes, very good. Who's on the 50? I've never seen one, so I don't know. Ulysses Grant. Yeah, that's what I've heard. I've heard stories. Yeah, and on the 100? I don't know. Franklin. Delano Roosevelt or Ben Franklin? Benjamin Franklin. Oh.
I know Washington's on the one because I worked at a gentleman's club for a while, and I saw a lot of those. You got a lot of those. Yeah, the difference was my experience was all those $1 bills. George Washington always smelled like an Orange Julius. It was covered in glitter. Anyway, don't let the 20 burn a hole in your pocket. I'm keeping it forever. I might get it framed.
Okay, well, go ahead. I'm going to go down to the mall after the show and continue to show it to people like I'm somebody. Look what I have. Look at that. I got a $20. You got a $20 bill. That's right. You're going to get arrested for something. All right. It's 4.17. Let's take a quick break, and we'll come back. The Mike Porcaro Show with Crash, weekdays at 3 on NewsRadio 650 KENI. Looking at your Alaska total traffic cameras on this Tuesday afternoon. Steady traffic around the Anchorage Bowl.
I'm not seeing any major stoppages out there. If you see traffic problems on the road, dial pound 250 in your cell. Say Total Traffic. From the Swickard Chevrolet Anchorage Traffic Studios, I'm Daryl Dean. This report is sponsored by Compassion International. Every day. The labor at that point yesterday about the Bill Belichick interviewed, which we played some.
story from WBZ in Boston. I guess that thing was worse crash than it actually was on TV. They did a lot of editing to make it look not so bad. I didn't see the whole interview. I just kind of saw snippets of it as I screw around on YouTube during the day when I'm supposed to be working. And I saw a headline as I was screwing around on social media today as I was supposed to be working. Come to think of it, I haven't really done anything today.
But the headline simply, I didn't read the article, the headline simply said, if you thought the interview was bad, turns out it was 10 times worse than you thought it was. Wow. Well, you know, I don't know what's... He needs to check his woman. Don't call. I'm only kidding. That one is going to be problematic for Belichick because he's representing a university. And it's a lot different than representing a professional football team. Oh, yeah.
The NFL, all that matters is winning. As I kind of half-jokingly said yesterday, I mean, if he was wearing a Philadelphia Eagles jersey, I'd probably root for Satan himself. He was standing under center. In the NFL, that's all that matters, winning. You look at some of the things that some of the coaches and players have gotten away with at the professional level.
that people turn a blind eye to. College, and it's getting more and more like the NFL with the transfer portal and NIL and all that kind of stuff. But still, the boosters and things like that, they like to keep all the nefarious... He's still a college. And they like to keep all the nefarious and things they do hidden from the general public. Not that that stuff doesn't go on there, but it's not as...
Yes, it does. The NIL just made everything that they've already been doing okay by the rule book. But yeah, especially a smaller school, it's not like... I mean, if you're at Michigan or Ohio State, things can be forgiven, that type of deal. North Carolina, as far as football goes, isn't necessarily a football power. So they bring him in because he gives them legitimacy immediately as a head coach there. And to recruit. And to recruit and things like that.
You add all that to the equation, it's even more important that, I mean, you know, appearances really do matter in this instance. And if she just continues, because, you know, I mean, what, is she 24 years old? Yeah. I mean. How many 24-year-olds do you know in your life that got it all together and completely... I mean, she became famous as a byproduct of being his girlfriend, and she probably wants her, you know, hey, look, I'm here too.
And by her doing that during an interview, in her mind, she's probably taking charge and showing everybody she's no nonsense. But in reality, she just kind of looks like a moron. And the people that employ him. They've got to be a little bit nervous about this, and rightfully so, because they're paying him a lot of money, and he is now the face of that school.
Well, he is. And that's not the kind of face you want to see. No, like I said, you kind of get away with that to a certain extent in the NFL, NBA, professional sports, things like that. But no, not in that instance. So he's got to be really careful. And she does, too, because she's going to get to a point where Belichick is like, this just isn't worth it.
Well, no. I mean, what they're going to do at some point is to have a talk with them, you know. First of all, Bill, you're going to have to dress better. And if I say you look like a hobo, there's an issue there. Seriously, if I'm critiquing your wardrobe... I mean, my whole wardrobe came from those pallets that they have in the middle of the big warehouse at Costco. I mean, everything I'm wearing says Kirkland on it.
But it's not ripped. No, that's true. It's not disheveled. That's true. It's clean. That's true. It is clean. Let's put it this way. It's not showing any dirt. No, it's not showing any dirt. I did participate in the smell test this morning, so we're all good. I ironed my clothes in the dryer. You might be too young to remember. You remember Chino pants? Yeah, they're kind of like khakis. Yeah, I know what they are. Yeah, well, back in the old days, you had to iron everything.
I know your dad ironed his jeans. Do you still do that? Yeah, it was quite a point of ridicule. My friends would be over, my dad would be standing in the living room ironing his jeans. Don't knock it. So let me ask you, Mike, if you iron your jeans, do you iron them just so they're not wrinkled, or do you crease them? Oh, you've got to have a little bit of a crease. In your jeans? Yeah. But anyway, we used to have these stretchers.
It was like a steel stretcher, and you'd put the chino pants on them, and it would stretch the chino pants out, and it would basically, as they dried, they would be pressed. Oh, okay. So you'd hang him in the bathroom. See, they should bring Matt back.
They should. Yeah, it makes things a lot easier. Like, I've told you this story, and I still haven't bought it, but I really want it. I mean, anything that makes your life a little bit easier. I was up late one night and saw an infomercial for those tube things that you wrap your socks around.
And then you just put your foot in the tube and the sock automatically goes on so you don't have to bend over to put your socks on. Because for me anyways, I just want to get to a point in my life where I don't have to hold my breath to tie my shoes. It happens. I know. It does. All right. It's 429. Let's take a break. If somebody wants to call us, be my guest, 522-0650. We'll be right back. The Mike Porcaro Show with Crash on NewsRadio 650 KENI.
The two people killed in the plane crash south of Homer have been identified as 37-year-old Jenny Miller of Anchorage and 48-year-old Daniel Bunker of... of Homer.

The application deadline of Wednesday. Families could be contacted as early as July. That's the latest. I'm Jack Cronin. Looking at your Alaska total traffic cameras on this Tuesday afternoon. Steady traffic now around the Anchorage Bowl.
No major stoppages. A couple of minor slowdowns out there. Looks like C Street's got a little bit of a slowdown on it starting at Northern Lights Boulevard. That slowdown is extending back down the hill. If you see traffic problems on the road, down pound 250 on your cell, say total traffic.

Had worked in a dry cleaning plant? Yeah, she said she worked in a dry cleaning store for quite a while. And she said, I'll do you one better about the jeans thing. She says, we used to be able, we would steam them and press them so they would be perfectly creased. And she had a lot of information about that type of thing. It does this, it does this, it does this. I'm like, yeah, okay, well, I got you on the phone. What does Martinizing do? She's like, I don't know. Well, I happen to know.
It was pioneered in 1949. I was just a small child. I can't believe that. Henry Martin. It's kind of like Thomas Crapper and the whole toilet thing, huh? That's right. Yeah. Yeah. He had discovered something that was pretty interesting. Non-flammable solvent.
At the time, the only way to dry clean clothing was using flammable solvents, so they had to essentially use the store as a pickup place, take it to the dry cleaning plant, Where the flammable solvents were because they had to be very careful with it clean them
press them, and then take them back to the store. So it was usually several days before you could pick up your dry cleaning, the martinizing process and use of the non-flammable chemicals made it possible to get your clothing back in one hour. It's science. Aren't you glad you woke up this morning? Oh, yeah, I was going to call in sick today, and now that I know what Martinizing is. The whole day instantly became worth it. Or, well, yeah, it is.
The whole day is worth it now. I don't know. This is important stuff. Think about the millions of people out there that have no idea what this is. They see it. But they don't know what it is. Now they know. All right. Well, not only do you entertain, you inform. I try. Good for you. It's very important that we give people information. Yeah. For instance, there's now a poll on polls. A majority of Americans think that media-sponsored polls are weaponized.
and this is from the Rasmussen company it's a national polling company they were one of the few in fact they might have been the only ones that actually had the election called pretty accurately. Everybody had Kamala Harris out in front As much as six, eight, ten points. And they said, no, she's not that close. She's not even ahead. In fact, after the election, we find out that her internal polls never had her in front.
So the point of the story, and it's in Musgrave, Alaska, the point of the story essentially is that the American public believes that pollsters are weaponizing their polls to fit a certain narrative. Pollsters are doing what? They're weaponizing their polls to fit a narrative. I'm sorry, I'm a child. Oh, my gosh, you are. 51% of the people have no trust in them. 43% say, yeah, we've got some.
So, I mean, you know, I don't know. I tend to look at these things, take them with a grain of salt. It's a snapshot. There's a pollster up here that I know, Matt Larkin over at Dittman, and I've worked with Matt many times. And Matt is one of these guys who is scrupulous. his polling and about the numbers and if Matt gives you some numbers you can pretty much take it to the bank he has been right on the money
for every election that we've worked with. So there's one guy that knows his stuff. And Matt's, you know, very, very... He's very protective of his integrity and his reputation, and he's got a great reputation. I just wanted to say there was one pollster that I know that I work with that's pretty darn good. The other ones, I don't know. I don't ever work with these people.
But, you know, when you start seeing these crazy polls, remember that one poll that was in Iowa just before the election had Harris up by six points? I mean, she didn't do anything in Iowa. She got killed in Iowa. So I don't know. It's all so much fluff. All right, 439-522-0650. You know, it is... Window graphics season right now.
With warmer temperatures, it's officially window graphic season, proclaimed as such by PIP. P-I-P. You know, windows aren't just for letting in sunlight and looking out.

But Pip also does, I mean, all kinds of stuff. And I know they do a lot of stuff for tourism. Yeah, that's a big industry here in the state of Alaska. And if you're involved in the tourism industry in any way, shape, or form, you know it doesn't make any sense.
And this holds true to any type of business, but with the tourism industry, it doesn't make any sense to provide this great product or service if nobody knows about it. And it is about that time to start gearing up the folks from out of town before I know it.

storefront signage. You need to pop from the side of the road to bring our visitors in there, make sure it makes a lasting impression. Pip can handle all of it. And by all of it, I mean business cards, as I said, signage, rack cards, brochures, banners, vehicle wraps. You name it, they can help you out. And it's not just the print job itself. It's the creative as well.

But I will answer. I like banana. flavored things. I don't remember the last time I actually peeled and consumed a banana. I'm not a fan of the texture.
Okay, you don't like the texture, but you like the flavor. Yeah, like banana pudding and banana this, banana that. I like that. I just don't like bananas. Okay, well, you know that Americans eat nearly 27 pounds of bananas every year. I did know that. You did. I'm glad. Doesn't everybody know that? Yeah. Well, it's a great source of potassium, right? Yes. Helps regulate your blood pressure. It's got fiber. Age digestion. It has natural carbohydrates for energy.
I mean, bananas are like, you know, it's an amazing fruit. I'm not all that fond of them, but they're amazing. Yeah, not my thing. Well, you know, bananas have, you know, there's a banana chart. Ready for this? I think it's put out by Chiquita. Chiquita Banana Company. Yeah, the banana conglomerate. Right. And it's like, when is a banana the healthiest? Now, the banana goes through several phases. Right. You didn't know this, so maybe you did.
Solid green, which is usually how you see it in the grocery store, right? Right. Green with yellow traces. More green than yellow. More yellow than green. Yellow with green tips. Solid yellow. And then in yellow with brown spots. And that's when banana bread happens. At my house, you know, the ones that turn brown, I'm told that banana bread is going to happen, but they just end up hanging out in the freezer for what seems like an eternity.
Well, when it's solid green, it has a lot of resistant starch. And that's supposedly, I guess, the type of fiber that takes longer for the body to digest, and so it doesn't spike your sugar. When it's green with yellow traces it's high in fiber and low in sugar. I didn't know that. When it's more green than yellow it's ideal for diabetics. When it's more yellow than green, it's got high levels of antioxidants, and that's good.
When it's yellow with green tips, it's great for a pre-workout or a pre-exercise snack. When it's solid yellow, it's easy to digest. And when it's yellow with brown spots, it's got the higher sugar content and the least fiber. What's the difference between a banana and a plantain?
Mr. Banana. Well, it's a different kind. It's just a different kind of banana? Yeah, I think so. See, I learned that today. I also learned today on the internet it's illegal to sing in a public place while attired in a swimsuit in Sarasota, Florida. Is it? I've done that. Have you? Well, you're breaking the law, my friend. Any day now, they're going to bust down the door of your home, drag you back to Florida. You'll be judged by a jury of your peers. It's Sarasota. That's what it says.
Apparently, also in Florida, a failure to tell your neighbor his house is on fire is illegal. Is it? Yeah. And this is the whole state or just any one part? The state of Florida. The state of Florida. Yeah, they have all kinds of weird laws. Florida is a very interesting place. Florida is not allowed to break more than three dishes a day. Women are maybe fine for falling asleep under a hair dryer.
This is in Florida. Yeah. If an elephant's left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid as if it was a vehicle. And there's a law in the whole state of Florida prohibits unmarried women from parachuting on Sundays. Well, I've seen the parachute on Saturdays and Thursdays. Yeah, not on Sundays. It's a big day, Thursday. I mean, oh, look, there's a bunch of unmarried women jumping out of airplanes.
Anything with turkeys? Can you drop turkeys out of an airplane in Florida? As God is my witness. No, they do that in Ohio. They do that in Cincinnati. That's where that happens. If you're just joining us, the Glendale Mall has just been bombed by turkeys. Well, if you're in a... If you're in Cincinnati...
That's the most exciting thing that's going to happen to you. That's one of the most recognizable scenes in television history. Oh, I love that show. As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly. That's one of the most famous lines in the history of television.
Yeah, and I actually have the first two seasons of WKRP. I paid for them. You could get them on Apple TV. And some of the humor, it's like a lot of the stuff from back in the day. Some of the humor doesn't hold up because it's dated, it's antiquated. And some of the humor you could never say on TV. And your show would get canceled. No. Go back and watch Blazing Saddles. You know exactly what I'm talking about.
But that was a different time, and it was a time when people actually could laugh at themselves. Yeah, well, I mean, it's one of the age-old arguments. I mean, Democrat or Republican, Samsung or Apple, crunchy or creamy, Jennifer or Bailey. Mary Ann and that redheaded trollop, whatever her name was, on Gilligan's Island. Oh, Ginger. Ginger and Mary Ann. Yeah, that's another one, too. But the Jennifer versus Bailey argument. Whew.
Maybe you dust up on the playground in elementary school over that bad boy. That's why you watch the show. Yeah. All right, 448. One of the reasons I watch the show, too, my father was in radio when I was growing up, and he did some on-air stuff, but he was also very heavily involved in the sales aspect of radio.
Didn't he have a white belt? Yeah, and Herb Tarlick had it. I'm completely dating myself. If you've never seen the show, you don't have any idea what I'm talking about. But Herb Tarlick, much like my father, had a leisure suit and a white belt. Now, I've got to tell you something. I got a chance to meet Lonnie Anderson at John O'Hurley's wedding. I'm not trying to drop names.
She was there. Very nice lady. Very, very nice lady. And we were talking about WKRP, and she said, you know, what was interesting is, Herb Tarlick, the character Herb Tarlick, who was a salesman, he had these double-knit suits, and the leisure suits, and the white belt, and the white shoes. She said, salespeople from all over the country would write and want to know where Herb got his wardrobe. There you go. They must have answered my father's letter because...
Some days he was the spitting image. If you look at that show, if you want to know what the 70s was like, that's it. All right, let's take a break. We'll be back. Call Mike and crash now. Be a part of the show on NewsRadio 650 KENI. Looking at your Alaska Total Traffic cameras. We've had fun. Every once in a while, you have to... kind of put some of the political stuff away or aside not that we won't do it but you know it's There's other stuff going on and stuff that might be a little more fun.
and give people a little bit of a laugh because, you know, all this stuff is pretty serious. And, you know, no knock on the media or the medium that we're on, but talk radio. sometimes takes itself too seriously. I don't think we should. I think we should... We should be professional and we should try to inform and do as good a job as we humanly can to try to give you the information and the facts and then also opinions.
which of which you certainly can share yours with us. We welcome that as well. But sometimes you just have to just take a breath and realize there's other things going on in the world besides politics. And while politics is important and while all this stuff is important, there are still other things in the world.
that You need like a good laugh every once in a while and just some dumb stuff and you know when it comes to dumb stuff where We're right up the head of the class crash. You know, that's where we are 522-0650. And we are, we've got about a minute or so, a minute and a half. Until we hit the break. I think that's where we are. Let's see here. Well, there's a story. school districts and about Trump. And I think our school district here in Anchorage is going to run headlong into a problem or two.
The president signed an order taking action against sanctuary jurisdictions. How does that apply to Anchorage? Well, maybe it does, maybe it doesn't, but it's going to be interesting to see just how... both sides in this issue if it comes to that interprets what a sanctuary jurisdiction is The President signed an order today. protecting American communities from criminal aliens.
He directed federal agencies to identify and take action against state and local jurisdictions that obstruct federal immigration enforcement. Okay, so I'm going to use that as a preface. And when we come back, we'll get into this a little more. And, of course, if you have a question, a comment, an opinion, whatever,
When I was nine, my grandpa and I were out fishing on his boat when a large wave knocked him overboard. I remembered some park rangers coming to my school and I learned to reach... jacket out to my grandpa she saved my life I was too weak to get back in the boat I realized that somewhere between the age of 16 and my age your swimming abilities aren't the same especially in a lake
My grandpa couldn't put his life jacket on while he was in the water, so now we all wear life jackets when we go boating. Many people are not as lucky when they fall overboard without wearing a life jacket because their involuntary gas... causes them to inhale water

This message brought to you by the American Institute of CPAs and the Ad Council. 522-0650 is the phone number. And when we left, you were talking about President Trump signing an executive order against sanctuary jurisdictions.
And what does this mean for the Anchorage School District? Well, the order is protecting American communities from criminal aliens. And he has directed federal agencies to identify and take action against state and local jurisdictions that obstruct federal immigration enforcement. Now, in Alaska... The school district has implemented policies that may, and I emphasize the word may, come under federal review due to the new executive order.
The executive order directs Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to publish a list of such sanctuary jurisdictions and to consider withholding federal funds. The Trump administration's stance is that sanctuary policies in which local governments limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities pose a threat to national security and public safety.
These jurisdictions may be violating federal laws, including those related to obstruction of justice and harboring unauthorized immigrants. A judge in Wisconsin just got arrested for obstructing. So Anchorage is not officially designated as a sanctuary city. When Ethan Berkowitz was mayor, he got close. He didn't use the term sanctuary. He used the term welcoming. So, okay, what does that mean? The school district declared that schools are off limits.
To federal immigration officers. Now this could be a problem. I don't know. Not an attorney. Superintendent Jared Bryant. stated that the district requires immigration officials to present A judicially signed warrant before entering school property and that such warrants will be reviewed by the district's legal counsel to ensure they meet legal standards. The superintendent didn't specify how long this was going to take.
This would give them time, according to Susan Downing, who wrote this article, to ensure that any illegal alien on school grounds has a chance to escape before authorities could enter a campus. Now that would be a problem. So I guess you have to have some sort of clear definition of... how long it takes. So if I am an ICE official, and I have good reason to believe that there is some problem at a school, I should obviously make sure that the school district knows what's going on.
There is no disruption to the kids or no danger to the kids. That's certainly something that law enforcement wishes to do. You just want to get the person you're after. You don't want to cause any more trouble. So I would assume that they would go through whatever procedures are legal to do that. The question then becomes if somebody presents them with a warrant, What's the timeframe? You know, and if you've got somebody on the campus and you need to get them, what happens?
And what's the difference between making a decision and obstructing justice? That's a question I have no idea how to answer that. And I'm sure there will be attorneys fighting about that and judges too. You've got to look at this thing from a number of different points of view and say, what's going to happen? Now, right now, everything's hypothetical. Nobody knows. But it would seem to me that the Trump administration is not going to sit on the sidelines and wait for some guy to take his time.
whether it's deliberative or not, granting permission for them to go and catch somebody that they believe is a danger to the American public. Therein is an interesting situation. So do the police go in? I mean, I don't know what they do. It's a situation that I think needs clarification, hopefully before anything happens.
I'm not saying it will. I'm just saying that it's one of those things. You can see stack tolerance here. There's a lot of things that could go wrong. So it would be nice if we worried about the things that could go right. Anyway, that's kind of where we are. The school district has a policy. Is the policy going to run headlong into Trump? Don't know the answer. But at some point... We might find out. And it could end up costing the school district a lot more than just money.
Hopefully not. All right, 522-0650. It's 514. We'll be right back. Looking at your Alaska total traffic cameras on this Tuesday evening. Steady traffic now all around the Anchorage Bowl. Lots of little slowdowns out there. Currently, it looks like Spenard Road's getting a bit of a slowdown back up starting at the railroad tracks. That traffic is backed up towards Northwood Drive. If you see traffic problems on the road, down pound 250 on your cell.
From the Swickard Chevrolet Anchorage Traffic Studios, I'm Daryl Dean. This report is sponsored by Think It Up. Think It Up is an initiative to activate... Senator Mike Schauer from the Valley. He's also the head of the Republican Nordic Caucus in the Alaska State Senate. And I think the good senator wants to talk to us about this education bill that was passed overwhelmingly by the Senate.
It does a few things. There's some things in there that are some head scratchers. But nevertheless, I think getting the context from Senator Schauer will be good. I'm getting the impression that there's also some stuff that may still be ruminating beneath the surface, and that this thing is not quite a done deal yet. There are some things in there that the Democrats didn't want that they put in.
there's some things in there that they didn't put in but apparently from what I'm gathering from the folks down in Juneau this bill is a whole lot better now that it was when it started. There's some more in size in there, class size. Charter school materials, that kind of stuff. So there's more. The question is, will it hold? The other question is, will the governor... sign it or will the governor take a fine
pan and start lining out some things. And remember when we had a Senator Kaufman on. He said, well, you know, you can pass things. But then when it comes down to the actual funding of something The governor can also just kill all the money And when the governor tells all the money, the test for a veto override no longer is two-thirds, it's three-fourths. So that becomes an enormous hill to climb.
So I don't quite know everything. I know there is going to be a cell phone ban, which is probably pretty good. There will be some reading incentive grants. And I think a lot of the stuff that's in there wasn't originally in there because I think the Democrats were trying to come up with something that was pretty onerous. And I think it was political. And I'm just going to say that. I think it was political.
You know, what else is new from those folks? So we'll have Senator Schauer on, and he can tell us what's going on. And there may be some changes altogether. Information is that this thing is still not fully cooked. So we'll see. So I'm just going to not say much about it because I don't know that much about it. But we'll find out a whole bunch more tomorrow. And we'll get it right from Mark Schauer himself. Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Education, Dina Bishop, has asked for a call.
school superintendents across the state. She sent a letter emphasizing the importance of including specific education reform initiatives in the final bill. And she wants to see comprehensive improvements. And so she outlined four primary reforms. So this also makes me think that this thing isn't fully baked yet either. One would be weeding incentive grants. And she would like to see $450 per student in grades K through 6 who demonstrate grade level proficiency.
This is Tim Holster, literacy rate statewide. You'd like to see enrollment expansion options. which would be policies that would allow students to attend schools outside their designated districts, which would enhance flexibility in school choices for families. The third thing would be charter language updates. which would be adjustments to streamline the application process for charter schools, including allowing proposals to be submitted directly to the state board.
which would then bypass, as far as I could tell, the local school board. and clarifying fund balance provisions. And then there's something called 1.0ADM for correspondence students ensuring full average daily membership funding. This would be the same as what happens in a neighborhood school for each student enrolled in correspondence programs supporting alternative education pathways. So she also says failure.
This is what makes me think there might be some other stuff going on here. Failure to incorporate these reforms could lead... to challenges similar to those faced in previous years, including potential vetoes of the education bill reductions in funding components by the governor. Will it happen? Don't know. But it certainly could. And that's why I think our interview with Senator Schauer tomorrow is going to be important and I think it's going to be extremely informative.
So you're going to want to write that down also tomorrow. Dr. Bruce Keaslin will be with us. He's on tonight, too, by the way, at 6 o'clock. We've got a bunch of questions for him, and he will be in the studio with me. live. We're both live. And we will be talking about the questions and the answers and all of that. And this will be the doc's last show for the for a bit, he's going to be heading out for a much needed and deserved break.
going out and doing some recreation and I think he's he's certainly entitled to that we wish him lots of fun and then he'll be back he'll be back in the month of June to provide us with more of his medical opinions and information. It will be nice to have access to a doctor, especially a doctor as good as Dr. Keithley. All right, it is 5.26. It's an old crash that...
You can make the outside of your home look beautiful. You can improve the curb appeal, but while you're improving the curb appeal, you're also making that house better. such as you're making it more windproof, more fire resistant, et cetera. And it's going to stand up to the elements. that we have here in Alaska, and boy, do we have them. A lot better than just with vinyl siding or wood siding or whatever you want to do. I'm talking about steel siding. Top notch reliable steel siding.
This is heavy gauge hot dip G90 galvanized steel. The color's baked right in so it's not going to warp or fade or crack. It's never going to need to be scraped or repainted. It's going to be beautiful for years and years to come. It's going to look like freshly painted wood 30 years. More who knows it's going to be there and there's no there's no seams or anything like that So it is it's not going to collect dirt or dust
or critters or anything like that. So it's going to be on your home, protecting your home, beautifying your home, and it's going to be there for a long time. But... That's not all. Because I can tell you, I got some gutters from these guys. Steel gutters. They're handsome. They're strong. They're great. And I finished off the job by having them install the gutter helmet, which is a device that sits right on top of the gutter. It's a flat...
piece and it only allows water to get through. So I never have to send Mrs. P up a ladder to clean the gutters again. And I'm just skiving that way. Crash itself. You know, there's just so much here. Yeah, it's not just the steel siding and the gutters. If it has anything to do with improving the look of your home.
The exterior is what you do, and the privacy of your own home is up to you. But they can come out your house and look one way. When they leave, it's going to look completely different. It'll look a lot better. It'll look a lot better for a really long time. They do, obviously, the steel siding. That's kind of their calling card. The gutters, the gutter helmet, that type of deal. But they also do...
Energy efficient doors and windows. So if you're thinking about maybe installing some windows and doors, you might want to get a hold of these folks. Again, energy efficient. Maybe your house is leaking energy. They can take care of that. And aesthetically, obviously, it's going to look great. They got some roofing projects you need done. They can take care of that as well.
Like I said, any and everything that has to do with improving the curb appeal at your spot they can handle. They've been doing this a long time, and they're absolutely the best in the business. If you're thinking, ah, steel siding, I don't know. It probably looks like that flimsy, weak aluminum stuff on the do-it-yourself sheds you put together. No, no.
No, no, no, no. It looks every bit as good, if not better, than freshly painted wood initially. And a couple years down the road, that freshly painted wood probably doesn't look so fresh anymore, does it? It's probably a little bit chipped, warped.
faded, things like that. You've got to think about repainting, getting it a couple years down the road. Not the case with the steel siding. It looks every bit as good 30 years down the road as it does the day they hung it up. So it's a great alternative before anybody opens a can of paint. At the very least, go to their website, see what they're all about. Nobody does it better. That's ABCSeamlessAlaska.com. Give them a call at 907-646-2228. That's 907-646-2228. It's 530. We'll be right back.
The two people killed in a small plane crash identified 48-year-old Daniel Bunker of Homer, 37-year-old Jenny Miller of Anchorage. The plane crashing... South of Homer, at the National Transportation Safety Board, saying it was a Cessna 207, a third person was airlifted to the hospital in serious condition in Anchorage.
May and September expect to be the busiest months for cruise season in Kodiak. The Viking Venus is arriving to launch the season. A total of 26 ships are scheduled to visit the island this year. A new report from the state health department says smoking rates fell to 6%. 16% in 2023. It's down from 28% in the 1990s, though still above the national average.
Cigarette and e-cigarette use declined in children as well. Alaska is also the first state in the nation to require bars and liquor stores. Post warnings about alcohol is linked to cancer, similar to warnings about possible birth defects in pregnant women takes effect. on August 1st. That's the latest. I'm Jack Cronin. Looking at your Alaska total traffic cameras.
Thank you, Mike. How you been? I've been good, thank you. I hope you do. Not too good. I got hip replacement, and then I got blood clots in the right lung. took an ambulance to the Providence and almost died, and the doctor didn't know how the heck I was able to walk around with that many clots. I got to see a cardiologist May 2nd. And that's why I haven't called in a while. But, hey, the reason why I called, Mike, is I can prove that Alaska is a sanctuary state.
And that the municipality of Anchorage is a sanctuary city. And that's because if you go to Home Depot or Lowe's in the mornings, there's illegal aliens hanging out. And they're asking homeowners, hey, do you need some help? And me and my fellow contractors, painters, I'm a custom tile man. I've been in business since 1989, but we're not getting any work, many of us, because the homeowners, and I see a couple of homeowners toting a couple illegals.
Behind him, they jump in the rig, they go to his house, he pays them cash, all illegal, nobody's paying any taxes. And the illegal aliens are surely not paying any taxes. And they're circumventing the... license, bondage, and insurance requirements that the state requires and the municipality. And here we are spending money hand over foot, Mike, to... be in business, and if we lapse on any of those, we get a
notice of cease and desist, and nothing happens to the illegal aliens. And I tried getting Kevin McCabe to do something, but he said, no, they don't want to harm the homeowners. But hey, a teacher goes to work. and there's an illegal alien sitting at her desk, and the illegal alien goes, here, here's your crap, get out. This is my job now. How long would it be before the police got there?
Well, it wouldn't be very long, and you're absolutely right. The point here is that you're doing things according to the law. There's a lot of costs involved in your business. It is. Insurance things. I mean, as you know, there's a lot of costs. You have to pay them. And you're expected to be licensed and bonded and all of the other things. The homeowner, you know, who's doing that.
is doing a disservice to himself and to the trades. I mean, you know, if you're going to do something in your house, Don't you want it done by somebody who, A, knows what the heck they're doing, and B, if there's a problem, there's a method of remedy? I mean, it just doesn't make any sense. And I hear what you're saying. I've had a bunch of uncles in trades. carpentry, tile, etc. And I know exactly what you're talking about. In the summers I used to help them.
I wasn't any good at it, but I could sure, you know, go fetch. And that's kind of what I was a gopher. You're absolutely right, and I don't know why there's a reluctance. The homeowner is just as responsible. They're a partner in this activity. If they didn't hire the person, this person wouldn't get the work. And we've got to keep the standard of building up to a certain grade at a level that's...
worthy of a modern nation and state like ours instead of third world type. And I've seen a lot of botched jobs by aliens. Well, and it's just really sad that that's what we've turned out to be. I just wonder if maybe somebody from ICE Wouldn't want to get up early in the morning and just kind of take a little drive and just See what's going on. And hang out with us contractors, and they'll see it's going on. Oh, there are so many. I bet you there are 60,000 of them up in Alaska here, Mike.
Well, you know, presence is really important in law enforcement. And just having somebody say, the cops are here. that's enough to dissuade a lot of people from doing stuff. So I would suggest maybe you make a couple phone calls, you and your guys, and find out because To me, that's just wrong. You guys are doing the job. You're doing it legally. And if somebody wants to compete, then they need to jump through the same hoops you do. Love your show, Mike.
All right, listen, take good care of yourself, okay? Thank you, Mike. You too. All right. Okay. 5-2-2-0-6-50. I know everybody's looking for a deal, but is that what you want? Is that the kind of deal you want? to essentially do something that is not legal. You know? Let's go to Kathy. Hi, Kathy. Hey, Mike. What that man was just talking about I experienced 25 years ago in New Jersey, and that's why I moved up here.
They would hang out. They'd hang out, and the construction guys would drive up with the pickup trucks, come on in, they'd take them, they'd work, you know, they'd work for whatever, a week or... You know, then they started with the lawns, with the blowers. Then there was the lawn, what are those things called? Leaf blowers. Leaf blowers, yeah. And then, you know, they started passing laws that you can't have these leaf blowers going on all hours of the day and night.
Yeah, that's why I moved up, really. It was 25 years ago. And I remember back then, they used to call it stacking. And there was this hotel, Pinebrook Hotel, and they were stacking in this hotel. There was like 12 people living in one room. And I remember calling the state about that. And they blew me off. They said there was nothing they could do about it. And that was 25 years ago. Wow. So now it followed me up here.
Yeah, you know, I mean, and in New York and in New Jersey, they had all sorts of stuff that went on, quote, under the table. Oh, yeah, they'd have them working on the road, you know, pulling the, what is that? asphalt on the road and oh yeah they of course you know it was it was unbelievable yeah also they used to fall off the trucks too off the what
Things used to fall off of trucks. All sorts of things. Tires, televisions, all kinds of things used to fall off of trucks. Oh, yeah. There was one of those... AAA Trucking. And, yeah, AAA Trucking, that was, what was the movie? There was a movie about how they would... They were all in on it. They'd pull the truck over and they'd rip them off. It was all like...
This mafia thing going on. I think you remember that. Mafia? No, there's no mafia. No, I mean the truckers were in... The mafia was in the truckers, right? No, of course, they're on the trucking company. They're on the trucking company. I remember people that used to work there. Tony, yeah, I'm not going to say any last names. No, don't. They're listening back there, you know that. They might be up here.
Underwitness protection. Who knows? Great subs, though, in Jersey. I'll tell you that. Great subs? Yeah, you guys have great subs in New Jersey. Great subs sandwiches. Oh, man. They've got better things than subs. Please. Please, Mike. You're going on the... Low level. Let's talk real time. Everybody tells me about the Jersey tomatoes, right? Well, the tomatoes, that's true. Yeah, okay. Well, I know that. We used to have to go to New Jersey to get tomatoes. The Garden State.
Well, yes. Who would believe that? The part of New Jersey that I'm familiar with had very few gardens, but that's okay. Okay, Mike. Have a good afternoon. I will. And now that you're up here, see, it followed you. All this corruption has followed you. Now we're no better than any place else now. Yeah, exactly. Everything followed me up here. And I think you know what I'm talking about. Well, thank you, Kathy. It's always good to hear from you. Thank you, Mike.
All right, 5.45. Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. The Mike Porcaro Show with Crash. on NewsRadio 650 KENI. Looking into Alaska. Total traffic cameras on this Tuesday evening. Still steady and heavy traffic around Anchorage Bowl. Looks like there's a bit of a slowdown right now on Braga Street. Traffic backing up there at DeBar Road. Traffic is backing up almost to Rica. Outbound Lazy Glen Highway, also very busy and congested. Fifth Avenue and Airport Heights is where it starts at.
Backing up to the 5th, 6th Avenue split. From the Swickard Chevrolet Anchorage Traffic Studios, I'm Daryl Dean. This report is sponsored by Anchorage Radiation Oncology Center. If you or a loved one has a cancer diagnosis, don't just accept. Into the mid to upper 40s, climbing back into the 50s. into the weekend. For Alaska's weather source, meteorologist Aaron Morrison. Now, back to the mic.
We're going to do this last segment on the phone. I don't know what happened to our connection, but, you know, hey, this is live radio, so what can I say? At least we have a phone that works. I may sound like I'm in a tin can, but I think I kind of sound like I was in a tin can with the other system, too. It's going to work. So, Crash, are we at least coming across at this point? You are on the air. Hey, that's better than not being on the air, right? It depends on who you ask. Okay.
Anyway, we've got, what, it's 549, so I'm just going to let you talk. I'm just going to sit back and watch. Yeah, you don't want that. No, well, no. All right. Well, tomorrow, the doc... And if somebody has a question for the doc for tomorrow, it's still not too late. You can get a question. Just send it to me. Would you better do it over the evening? Just send it to... Blowtorch 907. at gmail.com. That's Blowtorch907. at gmail.com, and I'll make sure the doc gets it.
And he'll be here tomorrow at 4 o'clock, and we'll go through the questions that he has. Or you could call the show live, if you want, at 522-0650 number. Doc will also be on tonight. at 6.05. So he's probably there now. Getting ready, tuning up, as they say. By getting ready, you mean taking a nap in the next room. Yeah, he's fired up and ready to go. Getting his warm-up pitches in. That's exactly what's happening.
Okay. He's got his nice warm blankie, and he's ready to go. But anyway, we're always happy to have him with us. The Trump administration... is seeking to host an Alaska LNG summit with Japan, South Korea, and I think those are the only two countries, in June. And this is a situation from the National Energy Dominance Council. They want to do a high-level summit in Anchorage. to advance the Alaska LNG project, a $44 billion initiative that would get Alaska's liquefied natural gas.
from the state North Slope to the global markets, according to a report from Reuters. The summit is scheduled around June 2nd. It comes around the time frame, Governor Mike Dunleavy's fourth annual Alaska Sustainable Energy Conference, June 3rd through the 5th. We were at that, weren't we, one year? A few years ago, yeah, we went. That was actually fun. Maybe we should see if they want us to come again. Or maybe they don't. I don't know. We can always ask.
At a pre-conference event on June 2nd, the U.S. Department of Energy will give a presentation called Partnerships Driving Success in the Arctic is a half-day workshop. With the National Laboratories and Department of Energy staff, the summit with Japan and South Korea will build on Dunleavy's recent diplomatic and economic efforts to secure international support for the project. In March of this year, the governor traveled through Asia to promote the projects. Taiwan's state-owned CPC Corp.
signed a non-binding agreement to purchase LNG, and invest in the project which broadened its financial backing. So, will we have a gas line? I mean, I've been up here a long time. And when I got up here, they talked about an oil line. Hadn't been built yet. And it happened. And then it was, well, don't worry, because next year we're going to start building that gas line. And that was in the mid to late 70s when the oil line went in. And so suddenly...
Yeah, well, it looks like we're going to have a gas line. No, we never did. We still don't have a gas line. So I've been up here 55 years. I'm still waiting for the gas line. It's not there. So Crash, I got up here when you got here, actually. I think you got here a couple of months. Yeah, we showed up here in town about the same time, but we took different routes. Yeah, I took a plane. Right. I came through a tunnel. Yes, I remember, you know,
Your eminency there. You were this little, loud, hairy thing. Yeah, well, I mean, not much has changed. No, not much has changed. to all the old stuff that we had. Alaska was different back then. I'm glad we're where we are now, but we didn't have the same kinds of problems that we do today back then. You know, you always look back and say, I was better. You know, I got to tell you, in many, many cases, it was. We didn't have a lot of the stuff we have now, but...
We also didn't have the problems. We didn't have the homelessness. We didn't have the... The crazies that we seem to have now. It's almost like Anchorage, like somebody stuck a pin in our balloon and all the air came out of it. You know, we look like we're, somebody described it to me as a bleak city. You know, we used to have color and excitement and verve, and now we're just kind of gray and lifeless.
And it's leadership. It's just what it is. It's leadership. The people are still exciting and fun and want to do things. It's our leadership. And it's like they like to, you know, down. They want to make us downtrodden, I think. I don't know. That's for another show. But this used to be an all-American city. This used to be a vibrant, exciting town. We used to have a great school system. We used to have all sorts of things going on in this community.
We had, and I'm glad to see hockey is back, you know, Crash. I mean, did you see that? They had a huge crowd. For the Wolverines? Yeah, the Wolverines games. Yeah, that's a cool thing. It's had quite a resurgence. And it doesn't hurt that the team wins either. No, it doesn't. But, you know, it's been a long time since the Sullivan Arena was full of hockey fans.
We had the Aces, and they were rocking and rolling. We had the UAA. When I was younger, the Aces were still a beer league team, kind of. UAA was the hot ticket. When Brush Christensen was the coach, and they had...
You know, Mike Peluso and Doug Spooner and Dean Larson and all those guys. I never missed a game. I went to every single game. Right. No, they had a great following. And so there were times when, you know, UAA would be in there to fill it up. The Aces would be in there and fill it up. Yep. And then all of a sudden, it turned into a homeless shelter. I'm glad to see it got rebirthed. Me too. Good for them. All right. Time to go.
We will be with you tomorrow. I will be with the Doc in studio, and Crash, you get to see me. Isn't that exciting? Dreams do come true. They do. They can happen to you. All right. We will see everybody tomorrow. Have a great evening, everyone. I want to thank my mommy for loving me so much for taking me out to the park, for reading me books, for taking me to the doctor when I broke my foot in ballet rehearsal, for leaving me alone when I wanted to be alone. And now, as a grown-up.
I'm thankful for being able to take care of you, my dear mom, for having the chance to take you to the park, for reading you those books we enjoy so much. For being able to take you to your therapies after you twisted your ankle. For understanding that sometimes you simply want to be alone. Roles change without us noticing.
