Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
Chapter twelve: Saved by a Fly-About-A-Bus.
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
Groaning because he had been foolish enough to trust the Un's, the Cowardly Lion ran up and down the edge of the skile.
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
There was no doubt about it, Bob and Nata had been pushed off while he was asleep.
36 MINS LATER
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
Now he held up his claw.
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
"As I understand," croaked the bird, pushing his curly nose back of his ear, "Mustapha's ring has turned black because you have not captured the Cowardly Lion." "That's about it," admitted Notta, trying to wink at Bob but finding it impossible to move his eyelid.
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
"Well then," sniffled Snorer with a little hop, "why not capture him? Wait, I'll get a rope." He flew off to the Fly-About-A-Bus, first stopping to comfort Bob up.
Phil ChenevertNARRATOR
"Let us meet magic with strategy," called Nick, flying back with a long piece of rope in his bill.
WilliamAUDIENCE
Good morning, Mike.
WilliamAUDIENCE
I'm a disabled senior, and I lost my GoBus card yesterday, and now no one will replace it.
WilliamAUDIENCE
I have spoken with GoBus.
WilliamAUDIENCE
I have spoken with MetroBus.
WilliamAUDIENCE
I have spoken with Intercom Support, and nobody wants to replace my card, and I have no power at my house.
Brian CallahanHOST
I'm just wondering how far you are from it.
WilliamAUDIENCE
I'm like a five to seven minute drive is all I am.
Brian CallahanHOST
So, okay, the GoBus card is lost, but my understanding is it's not being accepted anyway anymore.

Good morning.
Aaron KeckHOST
We begin with an issue that's been plaguing families for the first couple weeks of the school year, mixed up bus schedules for Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools, which have left hundreds of students without bus assignments and parents scrambling to find ways to get their kids to class.
Aaron KeckHOST
Last week, district officials briefed the school board about why things went wrong and what's being done to address it now.
Aaron KeckHOST
97.9 The Hill's Brighton McConnell has more.
Brighton McConnellCORRESPONDENT
After sending an apology to families during the first week of school when the bus assignment problems arose, CHCCS Superintendent Rodney Trice offered another apology to families during Thursday's board meeting.
Brighton McConnellCORRESPONDENT
Trice acknowledged the, quote, "significant disruption many district families have experienced," and said another apology was necessary because the district understands, quote, "the seriousness of what they are experiencing."
Andre StewartSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Our families expected reliable transportation and clear communication.
Brighton McConnellCORRESPONDENT
He said many of those problems stem from a bad download of data submitted by schools and families from Infinite Campus to TIMS, or the Transportation Information Management System, which is used to develop transportation routes.
Brighton McConnellCORRESPONDENT
Stewart called it, quote, "an absolute data nightmare," which could only be resolved by individually reviewing update requests by hand.

Gil AlexanderHOST
Good morning.
AlexHOST
Yeah.
AlexHOST
I don't know.
AlexHOST
Buses are...
AlexHOST
I've seen them drive very not carefully.
JayHOST
The buses here, especially the long-haul ones from Bangkok to Phuket, they drive extremely fast.
AlexHOST
Companies with foreign shareholders hold approximately 1.06 million rai of land and almost 80,000 condominium units across Thailand, according to the new Ministry of Commerce figures.
AlexHOST
Government data divides 36,000 landholding companies with foreign investment into three groups based on the proportion of shares held by foreigners.
AlexHOST
Businesses with foreign ownership of up to 49% account for the overwhelming majority, holding more than 901,000 rai.
XavierHOST
We did.
XavierHOST
We headed out to a number of different bus interchanges in the West over a few different councils and have a bit of a chat with some of the locals.
XavierHOST
And we wanted to hear some of their experiences firsthand with public transport and see if there are any, you know, see if there are any things that really stuck out to us.
XavierHOST
And yeah, so it was a really fun, really good day out.
speaker_3UNKNOWN
really
XavierHOST
terrified that we were out and about on the streets asking them questions about transport injustice.
AfiyaHOST
We really wanted to get an understanding of how people interacted with the bus networks and the impacts that transport injustice has on their lives.
XavierHOST
and there were a few stories that really stood out but before we go into all that i feel like we should do a quick um collective recap because the boxes are going to be fun gonna be fun
Steve JacksonHOST
QPR.
Steve JacksonHOST
One thing about QPR that I always remember, I mean, I've been with you many times, JD, to Loftus Road, obviously hitting Shepherd's Bus first and then heading across to Loftus Road, is the view the away fans got.
Steve JacksonHOST
I know we spoke about the prices a little bit and you two both had differing views.
Steve JacksonHOST
I'll start with you, JD, because you were on the back row.
John DonovanGUEST
Saturday was no exception.
John DonovanGUEST
It was a lovely day.
John DonovanGUEST
We were stood outside a pub in Shepherd's Bush, sun beating down.
John DonovanGUEST
Lovely cold pint of John Smith's.
John MiddlekauffHOST
It's hard to replace those guys.
John MiddlekauffHOST
So and I think Boise just is one of the rare small programs who shows up to a specific venue, that in Eugene, and 100% they thought they were going to win when they got off the bus.[laughs] How can you blame them? I mean, a couple years ago with Ashton Jeanty, that was the game that kind of put Jeanty on the map as like this is one of the best players in the country, and then he just kept following it up.
John MiddlekauffHOST
But that game at night against Oregon in 2024 was what really got the ball going.
John MiddlekauffHOST
And by the end of the year, he's the sixth pick in the draft.
7 MINS LATER
John MiddlekauffHOST
He's been in the program forever.
John MiddlekauffHOST
You gotta be cutthroat.
John MiddlekauffHOST
If you're not gonna be cutthroat, you can't work in this business anymore making $12 million a year because you're just gonna turn into a guy, all scheme ass teams stealing from your program because the way you're operating is so outdated.
John MiddlekauffHOST
And a lot of times when a guy gets run out at the end who's a legend like Bobby Bowden or Joe Paterno, like, those guys were, like, 80 years old.
speaker_1SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Fast cars.
speaker_1SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

Jesse LusciousHOST
That is the Buzzcocks and Fast Cars.
Jesse LusciousHOST
Yeah, that comes from the Buzzcocks classic, Another Music in a Different Kitchen, released in 1978.
