Summary

We've received a lot of feedback from residents near Mendon, Missouri where the Amtrak train crashed killing 4.  I'll share a couple very personal emails about living in rural places where deadly train accidents are part of life.    "Value Them Both" is on the Kansas ballot August 2 and unless there's a smarter way to campaign for the Yes vote, thousands of people are going to read it and have no idea which way to vote.    The Kansas City Missouri City Council is going to vote to approve $300 to any city employee that wants an abortion so they can go across the state line into Kansas to have it performed.    And something wild happened at the K on Tuesday night as Vinnie Pasquantino made his Major League debut.  He got a standing ovation and his appearance also sold a whole bunch of walkup tickets.  Also... the LIV Golf tourney this week in Portland has a way better field than the John Deere Classic on the PGA Tour.  This is getting interesting.

has issues as I've just received a ton of feedback about this Amtrak crash

0:23.2

in Menden, Missouri from people who live in the area and listen to the podcast and people that work

0:29.3

in the railroad industry that know much about this. And I thought today would be a great day to share

0:34.8

some of this really interesting information about a terrible

0:38.3

tragic event that took place. The death count is now four. We know that a lot of people were

0:43.1

injured. We've heard heroic stories about the Boy Scouts who were traveling on that train that had

0:48.6

been to the awesome Boy Scout camp in New Mexico, and we're traveling back from there.

0:54.8

And some of the really terrific responders and rescuers that took place on what is just a

1:02.4

horrific looking scene and a description of the crossing and numerous crossings in the area

1:09.0

in a rural area that are not paved roads that do not have lights,

1:12.7

that do not have signals, do not have crossbars, arms that come down,

1:16.6

in a very dangerous piece of track that goes, well, it allows 90 mile an hour trains.

1:22.1

It allows Amtrak to go 90 miles an hour.

1:24.1

That doesn't mean this one was at that point, but it may have been.

1:27.8

There'll be a full study. We'll learn a lot more as the National Transportation Safety Board

1:31.8

gets involved and they review everything that took place. There's almost no doubt we're

1:36.7

going to get signals at these crossings now. And it just seems a shame that we see this over and

1:42.8

over in our society. We know things that are dangerous.

1:45.6

We know things that are wrong. We do nothing about them until somebody dies. And then we do something
