So here's what went wrong.

It was kind of a twofold.

First, you had the NES CEO, Teresa Boyles-Aflin.

She focused this past summer on

on saving Nashville's tree canopy instead of trimming back those trees that were clearly too close to power lines.

So then when you have a natural disaster, like we had with Winter Storm Fern, you have a lot of these trees on top of the power lines, and you can't get to the power lines until you get rid of the trees.

So there was a lack of enough people to come get those trees off the power lines.

Here's Davis Hunt, the editor-in-chief of the Nashville Pamphleteer, with more.

So again, NES's CEO, her comments about trying to save Nashville's trees came back to the forefront with all the trees that fell during the storm on top of the power lines.

Yeah, well, the mayor's finally spoken up.

It took a little while for him to, which led to more people being frustrated and being like, where is the leadership in the city when so many people are without power?

There was a big difference in how Mayor O'Connell responded to the ICE enforcement that happened last year in Nashville and how he responded to this year's ICE storm.

To put this in perspective, when Nashville started out with 100 linemen on standby, you had Duke Energy in Charlotte, North Carolina on standby for Winter Storm Fern with at least 18,000 linemen.

That to me was like, whoa, that just shows one state that was ready to go to work and one state that was already operating behind the ball.

This is insane, Ben.

I know you're not the call her daddy target audience.

So I'm going to fill you in on what this podcast is really about.

We had Michelle Obama on with Alex Cooper and they spent the first half of the podcast talking about objectifying women and how it is so awful.

Meanwhile, the podcast is called call her daddy.

That is a play tongue in cheek on a podcast that started out being a hyper sexual podcast.
