What's up everybody welcome back to another episode of the Lights Out podcast. I'm your host Josh.

0:18.1

Joining the studio is my full crew today. We've got my co-host Austin. What's up man? How's it going?

0:23.5

I'm good. I'm good. And then we got behind the scenes producer Daniel. How's it going man?

0:29.0

What's up everybody? Daniel's been very very sick for the last couple weeks so he was actually not here with us on our last episode.

0:36.6

And then I'm kind of sick today just as sickness has been going around. And not only that like I'm sure you guys have noticed,

0:42.3

especially those that watch the show that our lighting's been all over the place our audio was kind of off last week.

0:47.7

It has been a major undertaking to try and upgrade the studio for some reason. But hopefully things are looking good,

And the strangest things happen in here like we have issues where the cameras will just randomly

go back to just neglect by the park owners. Not willing to close rides because obviously that means

1:58.8

lots of money for them. People leave if their favorite rides aren't open. And then what happens?

2:05.6

In like a lack of regulation too. That too in the day just because people didn't care.

2:10.1

And like modern water parks and theme parks really didn't exist for a while so they just didn't know what to expect.

2:17.2

Yeah when you start hearing some of the stories from some of these parks in like the 80s and even before

2:22.7

that I mean hey day. There was no like you just said there's no regulations or laws are really

2:29.2

inspectors just kind of like up to the park owner to do what they wanted and obviously they assume
