Hey, this is Keon.

And this is your host, Riley, your favorite okay storytelling hosts, and we've got some great

stories coming up from you.

But before that, we have a two-minute break from the sponsors that keep the show alive.

This is an I-Heart podcast, guaranteed human.

The worst airport nightmares.

Bad PVA3 says, okay, this is not what you were looking for, but here we go.

I work at an airport for a major air carrier. One day a few years ago, I walked through the hangar,

and there is a 757 parked inside with the doors closed. And there are like five general

managers and a couple of directors in suits staring at the plane.

There is a couple of mechanics on the side of it and then I asked them, what the heck's going on? One of them replies, deadpan, cheetah's loose on the plane. Are you serious? It's the, what the, what, how does that even happen? Cheetah's loose on the plane? Like the cheetah girls? Cheetah power? What had happened was they were transporting two cheetahs from a zoo in Oregon to St. Louis.

Of course, this is a... Cheetah's loose on the plane? Like the Cheetah girls? Cheetah Power? What had happened was they were transporting two cheetahs from a zoo in Oregon to St. Louis.

Of course, this is in St. Louis.

When one of them got free in the cargo hold, the baggage handler goes to open the door and almost loses his arm before he can shut it again.

So there we sit, trying to think of a way to get the door open without letting an angry cheetah loose in a confined room. Oh yeah. On top of that, there is a heart on board for transplant. So that's got to get out of there. Stop. Is it in the cargo hold? The heart as well? Okay. Thank you the person that's waiting on the heart. I thought the hearts normally sit in the inside the plane with the people.

Yeah, that was like a priority like package that someone holds. Like I thought that just sits inside. Nah, they didn't pay. They didn't pay that priority package. Isn't this in the cargo hold where like the cheetah is confined in, which is okay. It has zoomies, sure. Also, why do we...

The only people we have here are like

general managers, business people

or like heads of something.

Why don't we have like, I don't know,

the Zoom. Also, why do we... The only people we have here are like general managers, business people, or like heads of something.

Why don't we have, like, I don't know, the zoo people here. Yeah. Like a vet. Yeah. I feel like it'd be pretty quick to get a vet into dartum. I think a little syringe would help a lot here. You can't get close enough for that. That's what they do. They dart them. A projectile syringe.
