"He was out here for the win or meetings. I got that to rap with him a little bit. He seemed re energized, man. He didn't seem like somebody that was thinking about hanging it up any time soon. As a matter of fact, he said he was thirsty for another one. So that tells me that he doesn't at least at that point. He didn't have any indigenous seem like to be hanging it up anytime soon. Well, Tony and Helen at a 108 years old, they're probably ain't too many things you can do for the first time. I mean, dusty baker's out there experiencing this reigning champ thing right now. I mean, this is the first time he's ever been able to do it. He's got to feel good. I'm not sure it does. I mean, listen, when you come a world champ, you know, that opens up many more doors. You know, as many as long as he's been around, I'm sure there ain't too many doors he ain't being in, but you know, being a champion kind of changes that. And I'm sure I know for a fact considering he was all the way out here and San Diego for whatever meeting. You know, that's kind of what the champion has to do. They got to show up and show out. For the record, he's 74. I'm sorry, Johnny. I just for the record. I don't want to put that on the man that man's a 108 years old. I'm from a different generation. I'm curious what your thoughts are on what the Astros should do because we're hearing that Jose Altuve, who was supposed to be out until June, but his apparently been Wolverine, the entire time here. And there's a thought that he could return to the lineup tomorrow. He's coming back to work out with the team on the off day and they're going to make a determination if he comes back tomorrow. But the biggest surprise and I think one of the biggest surprises in baseball has been has been has been Dubai for the Astros. He's hitting three O 9 7th in the league in hitting and has been a huge, huge surprise. Now, obviously, Altuve is going to play second base, but the thought is he's going to stay in the lineup. He's been in that leadoff role really, really well. What would you do without tuve the way that Dubai's hitting would you continue to just bring him back in the lead off spot or maybe hit him second behind dubon? Oh, I mean, at this point, you want to utilize the hot hand. That's certainly divine. He certainly turned a lot of heads and, you know, coming over from San Francisco and being a legitimate leadoff hitter in that position. And a little bit of an old school way. So I wouldn't move him. I mean, that's a luxury to have somebody who's getting on base in front of someone like Altuve, who you know probably can not only handle that leadoff role but can handle that two spot. It's almost perfectly suited for him because of the way he can handle the bat. He's not a guy who he's a guy who can put the ball in play, and he can do it with authority. So yeah, I think for the time being, you go with that. You try to bring in, you let the bomb play and you let a two way back behind him to see how it goes. Odyssey MLB and Saturday Tony Gwynn junior joining us on sports radio 60 in Houston's sports leader T, one of the hottest topics as it pertains to the Astros around here is Jose Abreu. Three years, 58 million. They knew the power dropped off a bit with just 15 home runs. I think it was last year, but he still hit over 300. He's coming here and been a major to this point. He's been a major disappointment. It's talk of the town. From a negative perspective, just what's your thoughts on Abreu and what dusty may or may have to do with him in terms of moving him up and down his lineup in the future with the Astros and Abreu. Yeah, no, I think, you know, it's still early. And I know that's hard to fathom at times for folks, but, you know, we're in May right now. And so yes, he needs to get going 'cause that's the type of player that they expected when they signed him. But I would say right now in May, it's a bad bit too early to be in full panic mode. Now, I think dusty will probably do things to try to move them up and down that lineup to try to get them some relief or maybe take the pressure off a little bit, but I still think. And listen, I'm seeing the same thing here and saying some of the dudes in this on this roster who have parental yearly year in and year out been, you know, one of the best players are some of the best players in the league. And it's just not happening right now, but it's May 19th or may 18th, whatever day it is 18th. As the year goes on, I would expect maybe not the power coming back full tilt, but the 300 hit.

She says when she reported concerns, the city could be violating the law with how it was reporting 9-1-1 call taker data, she was fired, but mayor muriel Bowser says the lawsuit is without merit. We are always reviewing our operations to make sure that the residents of the district are getting the best service possible.

"And just be the best that I can. So right now, technically, spring hasn't started. We're still in early camp. So we've got stuff going on at 10 a.m., which I found out this morning. I'm not on West Coast time. I'm on Arizona time, I guess. Arizona doesn't change time. So I thought I was going to be late to the interview, but then we worked it out. So yeah, I'm just ready to get it rolling, and this is always the most exciting time of the year because it's kind of just when you get right back into it. So the nerves are going anxiety's going a little bit, but in a good way. So we're all excited to get it going. So we were talking before about how your numbers jump out for a young player. More walks than strikeouts in your first 72 games in the big leagues, that is something that has distinguished you as you risen through the sport. How is that ingrained in you? Because as you know, there are players who basically they'll be free swingers. And they're never going to be someone who take walks, but you know, remind me of Joey Votto in terms of being a young player who seems to have command of the strike zone. Where does that come from? It's just something that I've always grown up with. When I was growing up, I was a smaller guy. I was never one of the biggest guys in the field to the point where in a middle school play, I was Bilbo baggins in The Hobbit. That's how small I was. I would say, I was a small person. Teams would opposite shift me. I can travel ball. They would move over to the other side of the field because I never could pull the ball. So it was always just one of those things where growing up, I had to learn how to hit. I never hit for power. I didn't get, in my opinion, I didn't really develop power until my junior year of college. So for me, it was always, I need to learn how to just be a pest at the plate. And for me, I think that was easier in terms of when I grew up, I didn't have much power. So I had to learn how to hit. And then once the power came, at least in my own mind, I knew how to hit. So then the power just came with it. So for me, it's just something that's always been really important to me. I hate striking out. It's like, to me, it's just the worst. I've never, I never feel like more angry than when I strike out. Now, it doesn't mean I fear striking out because I don't think you can hit that way. But just in my own mind, I just hate it so much. Yeah, so I covered Tony Gwynn, you know, the Hall of Famer who never struck out. I remember the days when he was the rare days that he would strike out twice. He wouldn't even speak after the game. He was so and he was the nicest guy ever, but he would strike twice and he'd be miserable. I know you know George Brett. I'm sure he was probably the same way with his approach. Was so it sounds like that that was almost organic for you as a young kid is a small kid, that was your way you got on base in part. You're not expanding the zone. Right. I have to do whatever I can to get on first base. So for me, that was always the mindset. And I know that kind of the way baseball has shifted over the past few years. People will say, well, it doubles more valuable than a walk or a single. So you should try to do that. But for me, I'm not worried about advanced numbers. I'm just worrying about being a good hitter. And if the advanced numbers follow that, that's great. If they don't, I still want to be able to I want to be able to look in the mirror every night. And for me, I have a different way of thinking being a good hitter is. So for me, being a good hitter is having 5 quality played appearances on a nightly basis. So sometimes it works out. Sometimes it doesn't, but if I can go put my best foot forward 5 times every night, then I'll be able to put my head to the pillow and be able to sleep that night. Give me the name of a hitter on another team that you love to watch hit. I think for me, it's Freddie Freeman. Just watching how he takes care of his own business, so to speak, and when we play the Dodgers last year, I mean, that lineup is so loaded that it's just like all star MVP, MVP, MVP, all star, all star. I mean, it's just incredible. So for a group of young players being able to watch that for three games last year was just awesome, just being able to see how they approach everything. And so for me, he's kind of the guy that Ike in on what does he do to be able to be successful? And I think a lot of the things that I'm talking about, he does to at the peak of the sport. He's a tough, he's a tough out. He'll go the other way. He hits line drives. He's just a really good hitter and for me, especially as a left handed first baseman. I mean, it doesn't get much better than that. But then you mentioned chili Votto. He's just unbelievable. There's just so many great examples of hitters, especially at the first base position that I can just, I'm so lucky to just be able to watch them play. So inevitably, you were at first base with Freddy. What was your conversation with him? Yeah, I don't really remember because I think I was so starstruck. It's time to just be like, I don't want to embarrass myself in front of him. I don't want to be memorable. I just want to, hey, how you doing? Different things like that. So I have no idea. But yeah, that's the fun part about playing first base is being able to talk to all these guys whenever they get to first. And then when their first baseman too, when I get to first, I just get to double dip with conversations. So it's unbelievable. Last one for you on the front lines, a lot of the rule changes we're going to see this year, the bigger bases at first base, defensive ships, which in theory, we know from the winter market, left handed hitters were getting paid more because there's an anticipation those numbers are going to jump.

"New Mexico, Arizona, ports of Utah and California are effectively more southern than they are northern. Well, and why, I mean, that's something that we don't think about. So can you talk a little bit more than about why that really matters? Like, what are the politics of California like, say, in the 1850s that would make us rethink the ways in which we consider California and the west and the lead up to the Civil War? Yeah, so California in the 1850s was, as we've established, it's a free state slavery is technically outlawed there in the California constitution. But slaveholders are able to smuggle enslaved people into the state for years and years after it passes the same antislavery constitution. And so maybe as many as 1500 enslaved African Americans were brought into California, some of them brought in or many of them brought in before it became a state. Some of them brought in after the stay after statehood. And the reason that slaveholders are able to do this is because the white southerners really hold the political rains in California through the 1850s. They're led by this guy named William Gwynn, who was California's ranking senator through most of the decade. Owned and operated by proxy, a massive slave plantation in Mississippi, while he was simultaneously representing California in the U.S. Senate. And when basically stuffed California, he stuffed all the federal patronage positions in California with all his white southern buddies. And we don't think of the federal patronage as this important or necessarily interesting institution, but really that's how politics ran in the 1850s. If you could get your Friends into these fairly lucrative positions, like in the San Francisco customs house, for instance, they would owe their political loyalty to you and in turn you could basically shape the political apparatus of the state in your own image. And that's what Gwen and his buddies did. They made California into basically a free state in name only. So I mean, I guess how are they able to do this, right? I mean, again, to kind of go back to my old false vision of this. I mean, you know, the most of the people who was the whites who come to California after the gold rush, I mean, many of them are from the north. You know, what's the kind of response within California to Gwen's domination of the politics and the continued arrival of slaves, whether they are, you know, technically supposed to be there or not. For a lot of Californians in the 1850s, the reaction was just sort of shrugged. This is how it is. So white southerners had their at their very height, probably amounted to no more than about 30% of the state's population, but like I said, they prevailed in election after election after election. And there's this one letter from an abolitionist from he's originally from Massachusetts he moves to San Francisco during this period and he's writing to his wife trying to figure out why these southerners are running the show because they're a minority. This is minority rule. And he said, well, maybe it's because all of us Yankees went into business and leaving basically the law and politics to these white southerners. I mean, maybe there's some truth to that. But like I said, I think it's really white southern Democrats formed a united front in California. And they ran this really well oiled political machine.

"So, hey, if you're looking to go do versus and chill this year because let's be honest, your team not so good. No, they're terrible. This year. They're bad. They could be number one overall pick bad. Which is good. You should hope for that because they're not a real class. So anyway, if you're going to play some verses this year, what squad might should go with? I feel like there's one sticking out in my head that's just gonna be actually two Colorado that are like really, really good. Going with Colorado. Yep. And that's probably a really good call. Them or the caps. If I had to. See, I wonder about the depth on the caps. Like they have really good high end talent. So the inverses you can keep your top line out for a long time. But I wonder those other times, I feel like Toronto is going to be very good again online. Just because they have stars. Tampa Bay as well. You know, Tampa Bay. And Edmonton. I mean, you've got dry sidle and McDavid on the same squad. So there's a lot there. Everything else is a little on the, you know, not so great side. Defense and goal tonight. But it's not awful either. They were pretty decent team last year. I don't know. I mean, it's hard to say, though. Because all they played was Canadian teams and it's hard to know until they get back to the normal schedule. Anyway, Charles coming soon. Middle of October. So it will be here right before the NHL season starts. It's like a day or two, I think, prior to the start of the season. But the ratings are starting to come so we continue to watch for those. We'll have them on our site as well. So generous transfer stock comp to keep up with the latest there. All right, so last thing news this week I want to talk about, sticking with the sports team again, as we got to the end of the show, 7th inning ticked off yesterday. And we're to the point now we're all the bosses are 99s. So it's just a matter of finding what really works well for you to target once you hit that 350 K but this time around once you have 350 K, you've got the choice of Spencer tourism, third base prospect, high draft pick for the Detroit tigers. The 99 overall Hank Aaron, which I know is a lot of people in the community just really excited. And finally, I don't know Tony Gwynn. All here, the, as you mentioned, like contacts and power numbers and it'll be a super important. And I was hanging there pretty ridiculous. So that's pretty awesome. Any of these stand out here? I mean, they're all 99, so they're all super good with when you're getting the contact with air and you're kind of getting everything. And if I remember right, not looking at it in front of me here..

I'm just telling you what works for me and what works for me is using nostalgia. In order to help battle might anxiety. I'm someone who is always consuming media like always watching new television show always watching a new movie always listening to new music. Like i'm the friend who when something new comes out. People are like josh. He's in that. And i like no like all of the people that are involved or like. I've read like seven reviews on this new movie that we should see this weekend. But last year i started feeling depleted like worn out like i was unable like my glass was full and i was unable to take an any new anything. It felt like this muscle that i had had just like atrophied there is that moment where everyone was making sourdough bread and watching tiger king and i remember i watched the first episode of tiger king like seven times because i was like i am unable to process anything new right now you know. I'm reading the same sentence in a book times. It was something that i've ever experienced before you know. I ain't gonna get closer here that he wanted. Were in the world anywhere in the world anywhere in the world and i wish someone had just sat me down and said did you're tired. You're anxious. The world sucks right now. You're over stimulating. There's a lot going on. yes it's a. What did you do to well i guess. How did you realize that if somebody didn't tell you that so at the same time net flicks started releasing a bunch of black classics everything that would have been on. Upn lake marisha. The parkers one on wine lake. All of these shows that. I loved as a kid and i started watching moesha again which i used to love that show. I used to watch it with my babysitter. And i remember being like okay. Like i'm going to watch this and see if it holds up. Like if if i if i liked it or if i like it as much as i remember liking it they say that i love is the perfect something. I won't know for two more months because my amish father will let me date or use electricity into sixteen. What's the difference with this gigantic. Sit on my face north one woman anyway. At least not one worth writing about very definitely some things that are not great about it but also like was really funny and it was really awesome. See like a black girl in the nineties in los angeles. Just get to be a black girl in the nineties. In in los angeles late was like very mundane in a way that i feel like we as black people don't usually get to see like a lot of the stories are usually there. There's somehow rooted in trauma or or some sort of negative experience and it was just like she just like wanting to have a car like she was sixteen. And so when. I was watching these shows. I was like oh like i'm able to like watch things like i'm able to follow what's going on. It's just like new characters. That i just don't have room in my brain for right now and the experience of watching something that you might remember the words to or you might have a relationship with the characters like you may already be like. I don't like that person. I love this person. I really think that it can. It can really be like a blanket and a time when when things feel like overwhelming. And like you don't have a lot of control of what's happening around you. Is there like a particularly comforting. You know aesthetic or something. That's drawing you back in. I mean i think every generation has their version of like what they will find nostalgia base nostalgic based on when they came of age. And so for me. It really is like music that came out in the late nineties early arts. It's situational comedies. With in front of a live audience. It's when a hot guest. Star comes onto the and the entire crowd goes. Ooh there little moments where my body just goes. I know it says and it's great. You know what i mean. Yes and so. I think that everyone has their version of what nostalgia is and i don't think that it's a bad thing to lean into that. Like i think that a lot of times where conditioned to be like where strong and rivers resilient and nothing shakes us and everything is fine. And that's not always the case. And i think a lot of us realize that in this last couple of years like a lot of us realized that we should get smacked onto our ask the rest of us and so i think that like listening to your body is something. That's really important. If your if your body is having an emotional visceral reaction to something you should listen to it and you and your body was just telling you you needed some mta.

How to Become a Better Salesperson Without Losing Authenticity
"How do you become a great salesperson without becoming someone that you're not practice you know. Tony gwynn was my inspiration to be a great salesperson because naturally which i possessed as a salesperson naturally he's to me the greatest all hitter in the world and when i was twelve years old he owned the school baseball and it used to just amaze me not only would he take the time to give back in. Tell me that by helping me. He was learning more about what he was doing but more importantly he would study. The old betamax green screen to see where this release it hours practicing is he. Practicing base is practicing this so much. the greatest hitter. He better three ninety four last season. I couldn't get it. And then when i got a law. School became a salesperson in the stigma. That was related to the salesperson. All the things that naturally were inherent in that stigma of overselling back in selling lying manipulating cheating. I learned that. I had to fight my natural ability by being professional by practicing being open minded practicing being open minded. It's different than seeing everybody's a gatekeeper. Which is initially old old so this is ninety s early ninety sales training solution selling even though they called solution selling was how to overcome things and for me it was ascertaining having an open mind and practicing having an open mind. What does that mean that. There's actually a template number one of denna fighing. i only want to do business with open minded people. Why because i wasted so much time trying to convince close minded people of something reengineer a vision of somebody who has closed mind it takes a thousand times the energy to reengineer or to overcome a closed. Mind that it does to convince her to engineer an open mind and today as i'm an old man like i said because i am in the social realm where before when i was looking for help write something that takes radical humility and open mind. What was interesting is there's two or three people that somebody new that could help me see the math alone of having a thousand people on average that you can help me with so i started realizing the first step in being a great salesperson was finding people with open.

"Where I was. Uh, 21 34 years ago tonight thanks to a tweet from Butler basketball this afternoon was on this date. Who should have saved that for my segment later. This state 1987 Darren Fitzgerald says Butler scoring record with 54 points, including 12 3 pointers in a win over Detroit at Hinkle Fieldhouse. A Darren Fitzgerald was 5 FT eight. And what I remember about that night. I was in class. I had a night class. Um, On that night, I was in the butler Radio department class downstairs. It may It may have been a sportscasting class. I don't remember which class it was, but I remember that we were in the building that housed the radio station W. H. J. C. I remember hearing at the break in our class at halftime, you know, Fitz. He's got whatever it was 33. I remember looking at my friend's Bradbury and others with since he's got 33 We looked at each other. We're out of here. We left. We ran across campus. The Hinkel Fieldhouse got in and watch the second half of the winds up scoring 54 in one of the most, If not the most amazing displays I've witnessed in person basketball wise, uh, not associate with Michael Jordan, But Fitzy scored 54 on this night in 1987. All right, Theo tweet came from Was it? Stanley Flaherty. I believe it was. I want to give him focus. Stuart clarity, and it was simply this. You know, it was the mention that Tom Brady's one more Super Bowls than every any franchise in NFL history. Every franchise and he's won more than any of them. And he said, if that isn't the most amazing individual statistic in sports, what is now don't get caught up in the fact it's a team sport that he wanted, right. I don't want to debate all that stuff. I'm just looking to have some fun. Give me something else that Would dazzle you dazzle you're friends with or amazes you when you think of it from an individual statistical standpoint like this. Ah, player could collect 200 hits a year for 21 years and still be 57 away from breaking Pete Rose's all time hits record. I mean, think of that you could have 200 hits a year for 21 years. And still be 57 away from breaking Pete's record. This is a great one, and I had to double check this because the backstory the follow up makes it even more amazing Fernando to tease the dad, not the sun. Now the dad hit two Grand slams in the same inning. Okay, That's great, but he hit two Grand slams in the same inning versus the same picture. Do you know the odds of somebody in Major League baseball being left in a game to give up two Grand slams in the same inning? I think they got him free 11 that night in two and two thirds innings. It was Chan Ho Park. Fernando to tease for the Cardinals. Chan Ho Park gave up. The first one gave up the second one that just two home runs in an inning. Two Grand Slams in the same inning. Same batter pitcher combination. Tony Gwynn. Tony Gwynn could have gone over his last, 1160 still had a career batting average of 300. Tony Gwynn could have gone Oh, for his last, 1160 still had a career batting average of 300 Beri Bonds is the only player in the 505 100 Club. Nobody else has 404 100. Walter Payton.

That's one of my It's one of my all time favorites. And I didn't I think I just looked at up one day and I'm like, Actually, I remember I was looking up like how bad was Achilles Smith? Give me some perspective. And I looked at the list of like career touchdown passes and I started like I see a killing at five and I'm going up and I'm like Wait a minute. Walter Payton through mortar, arguably the greatest running back of all time. Oh, by the way through more touchdown passes than Achilles Smith. Yes, it is true 8 to 5. I'll give you one more lesser in scale and scope but still amazing. It's an amazing individual statistic. Billy Bates had one hit as a Cincinnati red. It was the final hit of his major league career. And it started the rally in game 20, by the way off of one of the greatest relief pitchers of all time. And that World Series. It was Dennis Eckersley, Billy Baits Little Billy Bates, a little Chopper infield chopper. The on Lee hit he has read. And he never had another hit. The rest of his short major league career, but he never made it back to the major Lakes after that, all right, let's grab some calls. 5137491 7800 the big one and pounds 700 on a TNT. Kevin is in Columbus, and he's on 700 wlw hate, Kevin. Highways. I'd like to say, Well, it's older, but Joe DiMaggio hitting and 56 straight games because you know a 300 hitter 400 hitter. He could go over four and make up for the next day, But it's hard day in the major leagues. I mean, even then do it for 56 straight games. The only one given came remotely close. Was Pete Rose. Yes, And that's that's a great that even makes it more impressive thinking that Pete was still a dozen games away from even tying him. Where I and then I would add his 40 to 56 hits That's those are both think they're never gonna be match just like Brady says that go along with that, too, and band Miers to know him back to that gonna happen. My beat, much less be beat. So his goes up with those all those records like that. Think, um or if I had time, but I'll listen to you. Hey, that's great. Thank you. Thank you for calling tonight.

Why South Australia's outbreak isn't going away anytime soon
"So norman. let's talk about south australia again today. And we know that they are dealing with an outbreak there at the moment. It's really early days and it's sort of hard to tell how it's going to go Yesterday we heard that didn't seem to be much in the way of community transmission which is good to hia. But it's a bit too early to go awesome new community transmission. We're outta the woods isn't it. It is and just need to remind cast listeners. Not they need to be reminded because they're no world authorities on the corona virus but this virus can go underground it can go underground with younger people asymmetric spread and then just pop sometime later and it can be some weeks later and just remind you. In washington state at the beginning of the pandemic it went underground for about weeks and this has been going now for over a week. Some suggestions even back to the seventh of november rather than the nine th of november. Which is what we thought the day when we started this discussion about south australia. That's a long time for the virus to be out there and circulating. And you just don't know where it's gone and there may be another sub cluster or spread somewhere else which just will pop up in a few days time or even in a couple of weeks time so you just cannot relax and it means that testing numbers should be really high. Should be looking at sewage and They maybe even should be starting to think about asymmetric testing as well. So that you you you. You getting mass testing of communities because the numbers of tests actually luke low pro rata thinking of south australia's about a quarter of the size of melbourne population wise. They still feel low. And i don't have the numbers to hand but when there was breaking shepherds and a lot of people came forward disproportionately far more than the coming forward inside the straight and it's not just people who are asymptomatic it yes it can go under the right out people who have low or no symptoms but in addition to that. There's these few days lag between when someone's exposed to the virus and then when they start showing symptoms or test positive for it so that life cycle of the virus kind of can play on. How complacency if we let it. That's right so five days is average but it can be longer than that and the near you get to win. Symptoms would have come out but you start to become positive more and more positive five to eight days into the infection. Then that positivity rate declines and just having one test for example may not be enough. You may have to go back for more so this is something that you just cannot relax about you. Just go to be on now for the next couple of weeks. At least so. What do we know about the numbers of south. Australians who are trying to get tested. Because i'm hearing anecdotal reports that people are trying and turned away. Yup about happened to be totally in the early days where they just hadn't got the pop up testing and the increased capacity. So hopefully that's going to improve dramatically but it was pretty unimpressive on day. One in terms of the response to the numbers of southeastern is kind of coming forward for tasting. We hear krona. cast listeners. Have been telling us that they got the results. Pretty quickly as indeed shoot and in any event you don't know how many people left the lines because they got fed up waiting. It's really important that people do come forward. There was a disturbing survey from the bureau statistics which they'd survey people and find that about half one and two. Australians would not come forward for testing of the only mild symptoms they would have more would come forward severe symptoms but not mild symptoms. Such remind people that mild symptoms are problem too. But we put the call out yesterday to you listeners. Especially those of you. Who are living in south australia to say what's happening with you. And how you feeling. And a bunch of you responded. Thank you so much for that. And kate saying she waited for three hours yesterday to get her child tested but the result came back today negative thankfully in less than twenty four hours a long time to wait to get the test but pretty quick turnaround of the results. You it's really a communist. Spirit there to actually do that and get into that lines. Stick it out because you're you're thinking about others as well as yourself so that's fantastic and then we got win. Who's sort of at the other end of the spectrum saying gwynn's pretty ticked off at a massive overreaction was is she's calling it too every time someone sneezes. She was looking forward to traveling to queensland to see her parents. Nash go without being forced into hotel. Quarantine that she can't afford and she's saying that the new south wales leader is the only one being sensible about all these of course. The state is not knowing how much virus there is in south australia but that should become clear over the next few days. It probably is an overreaction to close the borders the risk is low. They could do what they did before. Which is that we know. This is a para fueled cluster and the The clusters reasonably localized at the moment. They could limit the people coming in from those particular areas but adelaide is a small town. And so it's much harder to divide off the suburbs as easily.

"So norman. let's talk about south australia again today. And we know that they are dealing with an outbreak there at the moment. It's really early days and it's sort of hard to tell how it's going to go Yesterday we heard that didn't seem to be much in the way of community transmission which is good to hia. But it's a bit too early to go awesome new community transmission. We're outta the woods isn't it. It is and just need to remind cast listeners. Not they need to be reminded because they're no world authorities on the corona virus but this virus can go underground it can go underground with younger people asymmetric spread and then just pop sometime later and it can be some weeks later and just remind you. In washington state at the beginning of the pandemic it went underground for about weeks and this has been going now for over a week. Some suggestions even back to the seventh of november rather than the nine th of november. Which is what we thought the day when we started this discussion about south australia. That's a long time for the virus to be out there and circulating. And you just don't know where it's gone and there may be another sub cluster or spread somewhere else which just will pop up in a few days time or even in a couple of weeks time so you just cannot relax and it means that testing numbers should be really high. Should be looking at sewage and They maybe even should be starting to think about asymmetric testing as well. So that you you you. You getting mass testing of communities because the numbers of tests actually luke low pro rata thinking of south australia's about a quarter of the size of melbourne population wise. They still feel low. And i don't have the numbers to hand but when there was breaking shepherds and a lot of people came forward disproportionately far more than the coming forward inside the straight and it's not just people who are asymptomatic it yes it can go under the right out people who have low or no symptoms but in addition to that. There's these few days lag between when someone's exposed to the virus and then when they start showing symptoms or test positive for it so that life cycle of the virus kind of can play on. How complacency if we let it. That's right so five days is average but it can be longer than that and the near you get to win. Symptoms would have come out but you start to become positive more and more positive five to eight days into the infection. Then that positivity rate declines and just having one test for example may not be enough. You may have to go back for more so this is something that you just cannot relax about you. Just go to be on now for the next couple of weeks. At least so. What do we know about the numbers of south. Australians who are trying to get tested. Because i'm hearing anecdotal reports that people are trying and turned away. Yup about happened to be totally in the early days where they just hadn't got the pop up testing and the increased capacity. So hopefully that's going to improve dramatically but it was pretty unimpressive on day. One in terms of the response to the numbers of southeastern is kind of coming forward for tasting. We hear krona. cast listeners. Have been telling us that they got the results. Pretty quickly as indeed shoot and in any event you don't know how many people left the lines because they got fed up waiting. It's really important that people do come forward. There was a disturbing survey from the bureau statistics which they'd survey people and find that about half one and two. Australians would not come forward for testing of the only mild symptoms they would have more would come forward severe symptoms but not mild symptoms. Such remind people that mild symptoms are problem too. But we put the call out yesterday to you listeners. Especially those of you. Who are living in south australia to say what's happening with you. And how you feeling. And a bunch of you responded. Thank you so much for that. And kate saying she waited for three hours yesterday to get her child tested but the result came back today negative thankfully in less than twenty four hours a long time to wait to get the test but pretty quick turnaround of the results. You it's really a communist. Spirit there to actually do that and get into that lines. Stick it out because you're you're thinking about others as well as yourself so that's fantastic and then we got win. Who's sort of at the other end of the spectrum saying gwynn's pretty ticked off at a massive overreaction was is she's calling it too every time someone sneezes. She was looking forward to traveling to queensland to see her parents. Nash go without being forced into hotel. Quarantine that she can't afford and she's saying that the new south wales leader is the only one being sensible about all these of course. The state is not knowing how much virus there is in south australia but that should become clear over the next few days. It probably is an overreaction to close the borders the risk is low. They could do what they did before. Which is that we know. This is a para fueled cluster and the The clusters reasonably localized at the moment. They could limit the people coming in from those particular areas but adelaide is a small town. And so it's much harder to divide off the suburbs as easily.

Bill Barnwell on NFL Undefeated Teams + Monday Preview
"Bill Barnwell. It is late Sunday night almost midnight, which means it's time for you to make me smarter about the NFL. I'm going to try my best Baba Bill. Barnwell is a senior writer for ESPN host of the Bill Barnwell show and he's procrastinating his deadline to talk to me. So we just watched the saints and the packers on Sunday night football and the saints lost without. Their Star Receiver Michael Thomas. But that did not stop us from getting a whole bunch of touchdowns drew brees and Aaron Rodgers. Each threw for three a piece. But in the end, the packers won the saints lost and they've now lost New Orleans says back to back games for the first time since two thousand, seventeen bill I know you are writing a new piece about drew brees coming off of the two year deal that drew brees signed in the offseason and what we've now seen from him through these first three weeks what did you see in Sunday night's games he regressing improving? What do we have with bruise right now? Okay. So public drew brees definitely improving this is a better performance from him. Me brees was downright bad on Monday night in week two against the raiders before we got to garbage time and breeze didn't do deep very frequently until this game was out of hand but I think the concerns i. have read or have heard about arm strength or how deep is passes typically go they don't really get how reason this offense actually worked. Breezes sort of like. A singles hitter in baseball like Tony Gwynn lagging time where a post player with no range in basketball he's not going to suddenly start throwing deeply. He's Patrick Mahomes at forty one years old breeze has succeeded. Over the last three years while throwing the shortest paths in the League because he's posted the three best single season completion. In NFL history. Now. The good news for the Saints Good News For Saints Fans is that brees was much more accurate on Sunday night it was twenty, nine, thirty, six for two, hundred, eighty, eight yards a lot of that West Alvin Kamara who did a lot of the work but still going to end up thirty six is still better than where brees was. The bad news was just about everything else. The Saints Lost Starters Jared Cook and Andres P to injuries while devante. Adams List Aaron Rodgers threw for two hundred, eighty, three yards and those three touchdowns you mentioned. The saints focused on adding veterans with nicknames Emmanuel Sanders and balcony. Jenkins this off season. But. Sanders hasn't been able to stand out with ankle Thomas Injured and Jenkins has been picked apart in pass coverage including Mercedes Lewis touchdown on Sunday night the attorney for more accurate breeze that was a bright spot. But if the saints continue to struggle with injuries and get disappointing play from their stars, the Orleans is going to need this version of free stick around to have a chance to compete in the NFC. So the packers emerged three no, and that's where a lot of focus the rest of our conversation here on the teams that are now undefeated through three weeks of the NFL season. So bill, let's push deeper into the NFC here because the Chicago Bears Be Chicago bears are somehow three you know and they do it by beating the Falcons thirty to twenty six Chicago was trailing by sixteen head coach. Matt Nagy Decides to pull quarterback Mitch Trubisky in favor of the veteran nick foles mister big bleep nick himself who goes on to throw three touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. So I have a two part question for you now. Why are the Falcons physically incapable of holding onto a fourth quarter lead and? Secondly, where does this leave the whole quarterback situation in Chicago? Let me answer the second part of that question I. The bears are going to flail by the seat of their pants for the rest of the season I would assume that nick foles is going to start until he struggles and the bears trailing by two touchdowns in the fourth quarter a couple weeks from now, I would point Mitch Trubisky will come in and lead them to victory and the cycle will start the new. Unfortunately I don't have one simple takeaway for our poor friends and Atlantic. Is Different From what we saw in week to as. Much. As the defense was disappointing in this game, the offense really deserves a fair chunk of the blame for what happened scored a touchdown on the opening drive third quarter, and then basically tried to sit on their lead, Matt Ryan and company REPA- total three first downs on their next six is before the bears took the lead back and the only scored one field goal over that time after bisky intercession back running back Brian L. dropped an easy third down conversion which would have put the Falcons and field goal range. Then on the next drive kicker, young coup miss a forty eight yard field goal attempt. I know. I mean let's be fair. The Falcons defense was very bad. I'm not sure the Falcons are gonNA make any drastic changes on Monday morning, but Arthur blank can feel great about seeing this happen. On his seventy eighth birthday and. I believe I'm not mistaken not the only person celebrating birthday on Sunday. Having Birthday Pamela. Day Pablo. Yeah this is a hard way to discover that you share a birthday with the owner of the Atlanta Falcons Bill, which feels like you just cast a pox upon my house.

Bat Soup, Anyone? How Viruses Transfer From Animals To Humans - Yahoo News
"Let's get back to the interview. Fresh air's Dave Davies recorded yesterday with science writer. David common about the new Corona Rona virus epidemic which broke out in Wuhan China. Kwame ince's the corona virus is just the latest example of how were increasingly contracting dangerous. Viral infections since from animals in his book spillover published in Twenty twelve kwame attractive viruses spilled over from animals to infect humans with HIV West S. Nile fever anthrax. Bola and another from the corona virus family SARS severe acute respiratory syndrome which also emerged in China China. You know you're right. That as scientists tried to track down the source of the SARS virus back in two thousand three and four. They focused on this practice in southern China of eating and in some cases raising wild animals. Not kind of things that you typically think of as food or or where we don't want to just explain this trend and how it figured you're into this yes There is a vogue. There has been a vogue for eating wildlife wild animals when I was in Southern China researching searching the book only briefly. I got to see some of these markets. Where all form of wild animal were on sale A lot of the trade by the time I got there had gone underground because it was suppressed after the SARS outbreak but then it gradually came back and it had been allowed to continue in you again and proliferate win this new virus began but if you go into a live market and you see cages containing bats stacked upon cages containing porcupines stacked upon cages containing palm civics stacked upon cages containing chickens and hygiene is not great and and the animals are defecating on one. Another it's just a natural mixing bowl situation for viruses. It's very very dangerous situation and and one of the things that it allows. Dave is something that we haven't mentioned. I think so far and that is the occurrence of of amplifying hosts hosts that are not the reservoir host the permanent hiding ground of a new virus but represent intermediates between the reservoir of our host and the human population for instance those horses in Australia. From the point of view of a horse they were ultimate hosts and they were being killed by this virus but from the human point of view they were amplifier hosts the virus got into them it multiplied abundantly it caused them to froth and Chauque and bleed through their nostrils veterinarians and trainers. Were trying to take care of them. They amplified the virus. So that One trainer in one stable form and got very sick from that virus in the case of this new corona virus. One of the questions is was there. An amplifier host in that wet market where these cages are stacked are called wet markets white wire called wet markets. Well assume they're called wet markets because the animals are alive alive rather than butchered and in dead and refrigerated They're also wet. Because there's there's water flowing everywhere. They usually have seafood as well as as wild mammals and birds As I said hygiene isn't great. Animals are being butchered on plywood. Boards blood is flowing down into the gutters in the water and there is just a great Liquidity Mix in these markets at at their worst now when scientists were trying to track down the origin of the SARS virus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome which was associated with the virus in in the early two thousands. They eventually focused focused on something called the civic cat What is that? That's right the civic cat is not really a cat. It's more accurately called the palm palm civic the civic type of mammal that belongs to the to the family of Mongooses But it's a it's a medium sized animal and and it is both captured from the wild for food and captive bred and raised for food And it was the first big eggs suspect of In the SARS outbreak It was found that some of the people who got sick very early on had eaten a butchered civic and so in the civic head though the the antibody for this this virus right and they and they tested him civics and they found they found evidence of the virus. They found antibodies. Antibodies or fragments of DNA A. R. N. A.. In these civics suggesting that they had been infected with the virus and That didn't prove they were the reservoir host but it made them the number one suspect until a couple of Chinese scientists did further work and they established that in fact virus was not living permanently in the civic population in the wild or in captivity. It was it had a different reservoir host it was living in bats and it had passed presumably market somewhere it had passed from a bat into one or more sits and they became the amplifier host. Right and the the Chinese government I think decreed that all sits in captivity would be slaughtered. Right that's right. Thousands of sits in captivity were butchered an an electric electrocuted and and smothered and drowned In this I panicked blind reaction in China to the SARS outbreak. Now when you were looking at you actually went to China with and spent some time in the field with people who were investigating this right. Tell us tell us about that experience. I I went. I went with a fellow named Alexi. Kamara was working as a researcher for a group. That's called ECO health alliance based in New York A group of disease scientists who study see these emerging viruses these emerging pathogens in animals around the world. They generally have cross training in Virology Veterinary Medicine Ecology combinations nations of skills so Alexi was one of them Alexi and a number of Chinese colleagues and I flew to a city called Gua Lynn In the province of Guangdong southern China and we went out climbing into into caves that caves in the karst mountains the limestone stone mountains and hills outside of the city of Gwynn Looking to trap Various different kinds of small bats insectivores bats not giant fruit bats Small bats at lived in these caves including Horseshoe bats which is a particular group of bats so that Alexi and his colleagues could draw draw blood samples and test those for Looking for the SAR SARS virus that point or or any other virus that suspect unit. Just describe a little bit of what what it felt like to be trapping bats and these caves well. It was a little bit claustrophobic. It's not for everybody. Had Castle Castro. We climbed through. We climbed on our bellies through a very low hole to get into one of these caves. We had we had to squirm down and then and up through this whole to get into the cave and then the cave opened out and Alexi and his Chinese colleagues had essentially pillowcases and butterfly nets. And that's how we caught these bats. The Bat started flying around and they would catch them in butterfly nets and they were wearing gloves and and they would untangle a bat from a butterfly net and then Drop it into one of these cloth bags that were like pillowcases. And in this case as I recall they they would tire tied the knot often then handed to me and I would go over and and hanging on sort of a clothesline. So that the bad dangle and we were doing this I don't know if we were in there for a couple of hours oddly enough. We were not wearing masks of any sort we were not wearing with the called. Personal Protective Equipment has met suits or anything and and described this in the book. I asked Alexi. Why the hell
