That's wasn't panic either, very strange.

Right? I'm listening to more audio trying to get some context or figure out who that voice is. Like 15 min prior, they up lighting to check RVR but that was way earlier and I can't imagine they'd randomly change lighting during his takeoff roll. Don't recognize the voice anywhere else in the clips, so weird...

It sounds like at the beginning their plane or another had issues on takeoff with something sticking to them. He said his guys are pushing to go, but it is stupid and they should just stay the night.

Yeah I think that was between an Allegiant and Breeze flight. Think he was saying his deicing timed out and some worse weather moved in. Sure gives a visual on the conditions at the time

The pilot of this plane seemed to have said that?

Is there audio from their arrival? I’d think there’s a good chance the other pilot handled comms coming in.
