You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show. When our water heater broke down last month, it was a nightmare. It took five hours for the plumber to show up, and he charged us a couple of hundred bucks just to come out. Then it cost another $1,800 to put in the new water heater. By the time it was all said and done, I felt like I'd been taken. But what else could I do? The smartest thing you can do is get a home warranty from American residential warranty.

Have you seen drones flying over your neighborhood yet? Have you seen neighbors playing with their drones in the yard and in the streets trying to figure out what's going on?

Have you seen people trying to think that it's the new outlet? So we've got a guy here at the Mercury Studios that he, I think he has two pretty good-sized drones now, one of the two of the bigger ones. And he's got the cameras hooked up. And he's been practicing with his tablet to film with them. So, I mean, I believe he's been used on a couple of projects now because he's one of the, you know, one of the beginners that broke out and said, I'm going to teach myself how to do this. And has been using, you know, filming stuff for, you know, local areas.

So if there's a little helpful hit if you need a job, if you're out, you think, man, I wish I could find. a way to make some money. There you go. Get yourself a drone and a tablet and start filming stuff for people. I'm not sure. I'm sure that there's go out and sell your wares. And there's probably real estate tycoons, companies that would use your help in filming their properties with your drones. Let's make sure you do it right. I watched one guy run a he was so, mad. Oh my gosh, he was so mad. He's filming some stuff here at the studio. And I'd never met him before. I don't know who he is, but he's here filming some stuff with his, with his drone. And he's got the camera on and he's filming it. And they're doing something with Glenn.

And I'm not, I don't know what the deal was and I'm not sure why we were using him. I'm not sure why he was here. If he was doing it on his own time or I don't know, understand the complete why he was here. Because we do have people that could do that. But this guy was here and he was showing off his drones and filming. And so he was going to come down the center of the Mercury Studios and go up over this, go up over this thing and then come back down again. And so he practices and he goes up and it's everything slow motion. He goes up over and comes back down and then they realize, okay, well, we're going to come

around this corner and go up and down and that's how we're going to film it. And so no problem. And so he comes around the corner and he goes up and he comes up and he drops down too soon as he goes over this walkway and the drone crashes on the top of this walkway and then slams down. Oh, my gosh, was he mad? He was pissed. I mean, the drone was crashes. I don't even know.

I mean, obviously, he had to fix it. The camera cracked. I mean, he was not happy. And everybody was like, well, you know, sorry. but you're the one driving, dude. It's all right. So anyway, be careful while you're doing it. Know what you're doing.

Have a little practice first. Okay? Okay. Good. You do that. But get ready for it because they're on the way. And I just watched a video this weekend of kids drone boarding. Obviously there's a, you know, serious weight limit to drone boarding unless you've got a, you know, a 747 drone.

they're not going if you're an adult that drone is probably not going to be pulling you on your on your board but the kids were being pulled with the drone you know down the road and through the yard you just hook a rope onto that drone and let it fire it up and then just have it pull you it looks like it'd be pretty fun because something for you with the kids to do with the winter drone boarding okay and you've got you know amazon are getting ready they want to they want to start stuff with drones and they've got a big center not far from us

here at the Mercury Studios and in particular you know where we live and there'll be there's going to be drones everywhere I'm actually looking forward to seeing how it's going to work with drones flying around delivering packages and I know

Google or alphabet they have a drone delivery project which they're trying to, you know, patent for their delivery receptacle. Now, see, that's the whole thing. I don't think that they're, I don't think that they're patenting the drone. What they're patenting is the delivery receptacle so that when companies like Amazon, UPS, whatever other companies are going to be delivering with drones, they're going to need

that receptacle to deliver packages, right? And so Google is like, okay, we're on it. Use our delivery receptacle, okay? Because anybody else is, you know, we've already got ours done. So we'll see if, we'll see if this is going to actually be pulled off. There's going to have to be some kind of, some kind of weird regulations happening because, Jeff, you want big government? No.

What I want is safe airwaves over my neighborhood. That's what I want. Okay? sitting on my back porch in the Metroplex, I can look up and the DFW airport is over there, straight ahead from my back porch. Love Field is over there, off to about 10 o'clock for my back porch. and about at the 9 o'clock for my back porch is Alliance Airport. So at any one time, there's at least one and up to, I think the most I've seen in my vision for my back porch is like seven or eight planes in the air at all times. A planes, helicopters, I mean, they're flying over the Metroplex.

added to that drones flying around and I got you they're not as high but they're still drones flying around over neighborhoods delivering packages I just want to feel safe that's all but just want safety so I want my kids to be able to play in the backyard and not have to worry about the alphabet's delivery receptacle breaking off of the drone and dropping on their head with a set of plates for Millie. across the street. I don't want that to happen, okay? Because it's darn going to happen. You can count on that. And then we have the bigger drones. I mean, when you and I are talking about drones and drone deliveries,

we're talking about the smaller ones, you know, small table-sized drones that carry, you know, maybe 50 pounds, something like that. The government drones, obviously, are, you know, airport-sized drones. And we've been using those forever. around the world, and those are in particular dangerous machines. We've been killing people left and right all over the world with those, and I'm sure I'm almost positive that they haven't been monitoring us here in the United States with them. I'm sorry.

I made myself laugh. Just a little bit. Of course they have. My gosh, they can tell us know all they want. But you know that they have. And now one of the big things, we've got the Super Bowl coming up this next weekend. And I'm going to be out in San Francisco. We're going out to San Francisco to do the –

Hold on. I got to remember the name of what we're going to be at. The Super Bowl breakfast hosted by athletes in action out in San Francisco next weekend. We're going to do that, and it's going to air on the Blaze television. work on Sunday, on Super Bowl Sunday. And we're all the shows going out, Glenn, Pat's doing myself, are going out to San Francisco, and we're going to be a part of the athletes in action, and we're going to have some interviews and watch some of the speeches and stuff

that's going on at the breakfast. There's going to be NFL players. It'll be really fun. It'll be a lot of fun. Now, am I going to the Super Bowl itself? I'll let you know. I'm not saying yes. I'm not saying no.

I'll let you know. But security, if you've ever gone to a big event similar to the Super Bowl. Yeah, there's nothing ever similar to the Super Bowl. Okay, I got it. If you've gone to big events, you know, security is heavy. And the Super Bowl security is no joke. I mean, the last Super Bowl I went to as, you know, even just as the press, they're going to put your bags in a separate room.

They're sniffing it with dogs, they're checking it all out. And you're standing in line going, this guy here next to me has been on TV for 50 years. I'm pretty sure he's not going to do anything bad. But security is really heavy. And now they're worried about the fiber optics and drone attacks. So not only do we have security from everywhere else, we now are employing the FAA to make sure that we don't have any. drone attacks for the Super Bowl as well. So good luck.

God bless with that. And then my favorite Super Bowl story so far, and there'll be more because obviously the next couple of weeks is just, you know, Super Bowl intense stories. Because that's what's happening. It's the game of the century, the Denver Broncos and the Carolina Panthers. And everybody's most people are rooting for Peyton Manning. to get his second Super Bowl victory. And yet,

Cam Newton and Carolina, they want that young whippersnapper who has the ego through the roof to be knocked down a peg or two from Peyton. And I wonder who they're rooting for in San Francisco since they realized as they were setting up the field at Levi Stadium, the field crew set up the field,

and they took a few pictures, and the press were like, you know you have the Denver Broncos painted on both end zones right there's two teams playing one end zone is supposed to be the Carolina Panthers and the other one is the Denver Broncos uh wait what yeah uh we just took a couple of pictures of the field and both end zones are for Denver oh I guess I'll just have to fix it that really sorry

So I think we have an idea of who the grounds crew anyway is rooting for for the Super Bowl. Here we go. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
