Episode description

Sometimes Mother Nature decides to throw a curveball, and this week she certainly kept us on our toes with her unpredictable whims.  Join  Sunny and  me (Bruce) as we talk about the storms in Oklahoma . We take a moment to recognize the behind-the-scenes technical gremlins attacking our sound. Seems to be  doing so for a couple of weeks.

But it's not just the laughs that sustain us—it's the community we've built together, episode by episode. Remember, your contributions don't have to be financial; they can be as simple as a shared link, a thought sent our way, or the warmth of your company. So, as we sign off with '73 and God bless. We leave you with an open invitation to join us again, to find solace and solidarity amidst life's tremors and storms, all while sipping on your beverage of choice.

Weekly Earthquake Report and Chit Chat

Speaker 1

guitar solo . Well , good day , Sonny .

Speaker 2

Well , good day , bruce . Glad to hear you , see you and be with you .

Speaker 1

Wow , that's pretty catchy there . Good to hear you , see you and be with you , isn't that right ?

Speaker 2

that's perfect . Yeah , I'm really starting to enjoy these quick , short podcasts that you do every other week . It kind of gives me the opportunity to say hi , but yet we don't get tied up in a bunch of other stuff oh , you got that right .

Speaker 1

It's pretty cool . It gives , like you said , a chance to say hi and we don't get caught up in all the other stuff that's going on . But that also means we can't sit and talk for very long .

Speaker 2

You got that right . We have to keep it short and sweet .

Speaker 1

Yeah , and that's kind of hard for either one of us to do , but we're going to try again today to do that . So let's get on with the show . We just want to stay long enough to say hi to everybody , find out how their day's going and , maybe you know , talk a little bit about earthquakes . It's been a week . Talk a little bit about earthquakes .

It's been a week , but anyway we want to say hello , hello . Hello , it's been a week since we did a podcast and I hope everybody's been enjoying the week . It's a new beginning . It's Sunday , as we're recording this , and you never know what the week's going to bring . Hang on , I need to drink water . My throat's being dry today .

All these allergies Ah , that feels better well , I'm glad you feel better I do feel better . Let's hope it lasts for a little while . This uh room is kind of getting stuffy . It won't be long until we'll have to run some air . I hate doing that , but I guess we have to . Sunny , have you been doing anything interesting ?

Speaker 2

No , I've just been doing the same old fun stuff . We've been getting a lot of rain , so you know how that goes .

Speaker 1

Well , speaking of rain . So you know how that goes . Well , speaking of rain , I noticed , uh , last night that there was , um , the women here I should start to back over women here have found video that they watch .

Watch all the time when there's storms , and he has a group of people that come together in different states and they run around and check the weather out . That's all I can say , but they do a good job and we was watching them . Last night I got home from work about 9 , 30 , 10 o'clock what time was it ?

Quarter to 10 , I guess , because I went and stopped , got some hot chocolate on the way home and we uh listened to them . They had oklahoma , had some really bad storms . Uh , they had three tornado warnings out , so I went to bed . I couldn't stay up any later , but I was wondering what happened and I never did hear .

I guess I need to check that stuff out before I get on here and start talking . Anyway , they had some bad storms .

That one guy that was chasing that tornado , he watched it go across in front of him on the highway , on the highway through the highway , however , you say that , but it was quite interesting and we look like right now that it's been cloudy off and on all day . It is about 2.30 right now .

So by the time I get this recorded and probably copied and uploaded , we're probably going to have storms . I think they're saying about five we're supposed to start . Yay , give me another drink . And so by the time you guys hear all this , it'll probably be Monday or so and you already have the storm past .

Hopefully you don't know , but anyway , that's what's been going on this weekend . Sonny , you got anything new to tell ?

Speaker 2

No , not really . Um , I enjoyed you getting me on there last week . Uh , what was going on with the equipment ?

Speaker 1

well , I don't know , it's still acting up a little bit . Um , it's just not working right . I don't know what's going on , but but I couldn't get yours to work , as you know , and I almost gave up . And then I tried it one more time and I got it to go . So you got to come on there at the last minute .

But I'm going to have to dissect it and see what's going on . I don't know if it's on your headset that's having problems or the interface that plugs into the task cam , but something is amiss . It's not working right . But we're going to work on that . Try to anyway , try to anyway . But anyway , no big plans for the next podcast .

As usual , I don't have anything planned out . We'll just have to work on it this week . Hopefully I'll have time to do that , but I want to right now go over the earthquakes for the last seven days well , I am ready to guess again .

Speaker 2

I like guessing and lily's not here , so guess what ? She can't outguess me .

Speaker 1

You're right . She can't outguess you at all , and I'm not liking what I'm hearing on this thing . It's like something's messing up . Hang on a minute .

Speaker 2

Speaker 1

Speaker 1

Well , that's close . Nope 341 of 2.5 and above earthquakes . And then there was 4.5 and plus . There was 134 , no 135 of those . So we had last week 246 2.5s and 85 4.5 and above . So we had more . We had more all together . We had more 2.5 and plus and more 4.5 and plus . So , yeah , and we had 6.0 .
