Bill welcomes Kevin and Matt to the studio for a conversation that starts with Mother Nature's fury and ends with a mother's memorable discovery! The trio dives into the recent surge of weather-related incidents, from local expressway rollovers (with Bill suggesting some drivers might be channeling their inner Tokyo Drift) to the shocking Delta Airlines incident at Toronto Pearson International Airport, where a Minneapolis flight ended in a catastrophic upside-down landing on a snowy runway. The guys analyze exclusive passenger footage and discuss the potential factors behind the crash, from weather conditions to shifting overhead baggage. Matt wonders how many passengers will ever fly again, while Kevin recalls Billified's past interview with a Miracle on the Hudson survivor, one man was booking another flight home the same day! Bill raises an important question about pilot PTSD following such harrowing incidents, especially given the recent uptick in aviation incidents.
The group then shifts gears to review Netflix's "American Manhunt: O.J. Simpson" docuseries, which despite being 30 years after the fact, earns high praise from both Bill and Matt. They highlight the series' compelling presentation of how small investigative missteps led to major courtroom consequences, complete with chilling audio from both investigators and O.J.'s former agent Mike Gilbert.
As Matt shares plans for an upcoming family cruise with dolphin swimming activities, Bill counters with a sobering story about a 55-year-old Canadian woman's unfortunate encounter with a bull shark in Turks and Caicos - adding another item to everyone's phobia list!
Bill gets personal, reflecting on things young men used to do that might now be considered "toxic." This leads to a hilarious detour about an old girlfriend and a letter she wrote, one so steamy his mother secretly read it and was not happy. With Kevin egging him on, Bill calls his mom live to see if she remembers the girl. Will she react the way Bill predicts? Moms always know!
Plus, don't miss another hilarious round of "Name That Tune" featuring the infamously struggling players Bill and Matt. Can you do better? (Spoiler alert: You probably can!)
Enjoy an episode that seamlessly weaves together current events, personal stories, and nostalgic memories, all delivered with Billified's signature style and humor.
