Summary:In this podcast episode, hosts Steve and Marlo and guest Kevin Burkhart discuss a variety of topics, ranging from the progress being made in the electric airplane industry to the potential benefits of flying cars for transportation efficiency in large cities. They also touch on the possibility of using a catapult system for electric-powered aircraft takeoff to conserve energy and discuss the implications of the recent failure of Silicon Valley Bank, which impacted many tech companies. The conversation also delves into the current state of autonomous vehicles and the potential for increased efficiency as technology advances.Transcript: Did you know today is National Pie? Kevin Burkhart in with us this morning as well. and National Potato Chip Day. I mean, yes. And potato chip. We got both food groups represented. Well, I, yeah, well see I did that too. I, I, I fell into that trap also, , and then I remembered, wait a minute, we just had a national pie day and then I looked closer and went, oh, pie day as in math 3 1 4. You know, this is actually the, the bigger, bigger national day of the two though. Well, I know it is, but I like pie. Well, yeah, so you have the, you have that reason to go on half pie. People across the country will be eating pie day to celebrate pie day. That, that’s what I fell back into. It’s like, you know what, I’m gonna have another pie day. Yeah, I’m, I’m going to go to half pie. Just put 3.14 on the pie and whipped cream or something like that and then Oh yeah. Okay. Great marketing piece. Any restaurants out there listing? You should sell a slice of pie for $3 and 14 cents a day. That’s a good idea. Yes. See, you can double dip on pie day. See, I think there’s all kinds of ways to utilize this. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, as long as they got a piece of pie, I’m happy. Banana cream, coconut cream. That reminds me, I, I was at Perkins just the other day ordering a, a whole pie. And the lady said, do you want it sliced? I said, sure. She says, do you want to cut into four slices or six? I said, you better make it four. I don’t think I could eat six man, after my own heart. There we go. Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit about the time change. Of course. Uh, it’s weird this year. Normally I don’t, uh, have to deal with this, but um, cause I’m a morning person anyway. But the time change this year, kind of, kind of, I don’t know if it’s snuck up on me, caught me a little off guard. Um, just a little outta sorts with the time change this here. First of all, because there’s eight feet of snow on the ground, it doesn’t feel like it should be time to set the clocks forward. I don’t think. Maybe that’s part of it. I think it is because I, Sunday night I was ready to go to Ben went, wait a minute. It’s still way too light out. And yeah. And then Monday morning it was like, oh. Do I have to get outta bed now? I mean, it really is, you know, uh, according to, I forget what they call it for the weather service for the seasons, you know, we have the, the seasons that fall on the dates, right? So we’re almost to, we’re almost to spring, but there’s like the calendar spring or whatever they call it, which is actually, actually the first one. Yeah. That comes up on the 20th is actual Spring. Spring. But they have, uh, you know, March 1st is actually supposed to be the whatever spring is, whatever it is. But anyway, uh, it’s like pie day. There’s more than one. That’s right. That’s right. . There’s more of everything now , I, I forget the trim that they used for that, but anyway, they, uh, um, it just, it’s a vernal equinox thing, but it just feels weird this year to have the time change and they’re, it still, I mean, yesterday morning it was 13 below zero, for goodness sake. . Yeah. I mean, being a guy from Minot, we were getting a huge snow storm. On, uh, Saturday, late Saturday night, early into Sunday. So I looked at it as we got one less hour of a snowstorm. That’s perfect. I mean, just cut much less snow to have some snow shovel. Less snow. Shoveler shovel. Exactly. So, so I get stuck in Vegas because of the snowstorm up here, . And uh, uh, and I took advantage of that and actually had some other business meetings and things, and, and I get back to the hotel. It’s one o’clock in the morning and I, and the plane leaves at six in the morning. Right. And I’m like, oh my goodness. I I’m only gonna get three hours of sleep. No, you’re not. Because I would completely oversleep. I, at that point, I just stay up. Yeah. And I, I don’t sleep well the night before I travel anyway, I was thinking about doing that too. And I especially started thinking about, that’s the clock. As I walk to the elevator to go to my room, there’s a huge sign that says, please don’t forget to set your clocks ahead one hour. And I’m like, What? ? It’s daylight savings night . So it’s not one o’clock. It’s actually two hours. Two o’clock...
