but that's on the twenty sixth.It's also Morgan Maney your first keyword

(00:24):
coming up at nine thirty this morning. I have a serious question. I
do not know why people do thisto themselves. Okay, I don't know
why people volunteer to do things thatthey know immediately they're going to regret.
You sound like my wife. Icontinuously we'll be yeah, I can do
it, Yeah, I can doit, And she's like, why do
you always say yes? Right?Because you know it's it's gonna turn your
life upside down that week, especiallythe preparation process. Also depending on what

(00:47):
it is, it's going to beterrible. All right, here's what it
is. So I remember hearing thison Saturday or Sunday. But my wife
was like, Hey, my friend, like her one of her business partners
she sold a condo to, likea really nice condo too, wants to
see the baby. So she's gonnacome over on Thursday. And I was
like, oh great, that's awesome. Then I walked off, going,
that's gonna totally screw up my week, like walt off, go why you

(01:11):
sold her like a like a highrise condo and Buckhead, why come to
our apartment? They don't need tobe friends go to her place? Why?
Why makes sense? We have anewborn baby. Okay, this house
is gonna be the way that itis. Don't make this a home game
for us, making a road game. And I just walked off going,
oh, this is gonna be bad. And then yesterday I didn't think it

(01:32):
was gonna happen Tuesday because Thursday issupposed to be the hangout. But my
wife got days confused. Oh no, so she thought yesterday was Wednesday.
Oh no. And so she immediatelyis like furious because she's like, I
have to clean this entire house.You did this to yourself, right,
what are you doing? Feel badfor you? Then she whacks her head
on a big screen TV mounted toa wall and has to go like the

(01:53):
urgent care because she was like havinglike that curious headaches. Oh, She's
like, I'm just gonna do this, and Brian has a clean sheet to
cancel. No, No, shekept cleaning. She got back and kept
cleaning. But so like the pointhit her like right in the back of
the head, like where your brainsteadhits. So she didn't get stitched or
anything, but she had like apiercing headache, and I was like,
oh, this is even worse.And I just my question is why say

(02:15):
yes to things that are so easilyjust go to a restaurant, you know
what I mean? You say yesknowing your whole week is gonna be upside
down right now because you have toclean the house. You'd have to clean
the house in her mind to thenhave someone professionally come clean the house.
And I'm just like, why dowe do it? Why? It's a
great question. Why don't you feelguilty? We feel like we should,
We feel like we should say yesif somebody you know, I don't know.

(02:37):
It's one of those questions that willnever be answered by people like me.
Just like your wife. Yeah,like you say yes and immediately everyone's
like, why did you just ruineverything. Now we have chores. Why
thanks for listening to move Kimmy andOtis in the morning. I love your
show. Stacy, You're amazing.Thank you. Let's go ninety four point

(02:57):
nine the ball ninety four and onthe bull Gownette Striper's tickets. We got
them for seven thirty this morning.They're playing the Durham Bulls on the twenty
fourth. We got eight ten headlinesthat get ahead of myself here six ten
headlines with Timmy Karuba do it bothtimes a day. So I'll tell you
about the Atlanta Waterboys in just aminute. But Cobb County Police released new
video yesterday from the arrest of theMidtown shooter. Until now, we've really

(03:19):
only seen far off, blurry videoof that encounter. But this includes bodycam
footage from the neighborhood where he wasfound after that hour's long man hunt.
Wow and Music Midtown is making itsreturn to Piedmont Park this September after the
uproar around its cancelation last year.If you remember, there was an issue
about the festival not being able toban guns in the public park. The
interesting thing is they haven't addressed howthey're going to be tackling that issue this

(03:43):
year, but they did release thefull lineup and it looks like they're going
ahead with it. The issue wasnot it was both right, it was
twofold one. They didn't even tryto apply to have it be a noun
a gun free zone for a temporaryevent at all, so leading up to
it, legally they weren't allowed totell you couldn't bring gun, which is
it's an administrative fault on their own, on theirs, on their side.

(04:04):
So I mean, look, youcan't have people bringing guns into a concert
where you have artists. Who Imean, if I was an artist,
I'm not trying to play that right. Absolutely, pre sale tickets going sale
tomorrow and single day tickets are goingto be available for the first time.
Like how Hodgepodgy it is. Whenyou look at the lineup, you know

(04:24):
Pink's gonna be there, Billie Eilish. But the Sunday the headline is guns
and Roses and a little baby,right, I just imagine them getting up
together. I really hope they do. They would a little baby. If
you don't follow him, he's inthe Atlanta Rapper, but I mean he's
a monster right now. But thatdude will do the weirdest collabs ever,
so I wouldn't I wouldn't be shockedat him. And Actual Rose did something
and the Atlanta water Boys are changingtheir jobs. It still involves water,

(04:46):
though they are now in the pressurewashing and detailing business. They even created
a company called Real Motion Youth withthe aim of keeping kids out of trouble.
Legally, they weren't supposed to beselling the water bottles to begin with,
so they kind of had to thatwas you didn't live here when that
was going on. There was danger, I mean involve kids are pulling guns
on each other, like wanting.They were fighting over corners, pulling guns
on people in cars. They weremaking a lot of money, so that
started, you know, creating alittle bit of it changed. Some of

(05:10):
the kids were really just genuinely sellingwater and some kids were like just intimidating
you into giving you money. Theywouldn't let go of your car and stuff.
And ultimately the goal for a lotof these organizations was to find a
productive way for these kids to makemoney in socioeconomic environments that they need money
and they need something to do.Encourage the entrepreneurship just in a safe Way.
Yeah. Absolutely, It's the headlineswith Kimmy Creube every day. It's

but luckily they want to jump inand help us. We're like, no,

don't want to be letty all.Thank you, Thank you for calling in
and listening. Oh, thank youall so much all the time. Take
care, thank you. We're gonnamake things weird here in a second,
like we do on Wednesdays. Haveyou ever thought about living like the Little
Mermaid or Triton of the Sea?Ninety four point nine the bull don't forget

(07:23):
morgan Mania. We got last nightcoming up here in just a few minutes.
The first keyword you got for floorseats coming up at nine thirty this
morning here on Moot Kimmy and Otis. I'm Brian Moot on Wednesdays, let
Otis frolic in the fields of weirdnews. We've all kind of dreamed maybe
of those cartoons where people live underneaththe sea Atlantis, and you just want

(07:43):
to maybe feel like, what someday, maybe it'll happen. It's actually happening
right now. Crab Man. There'sa guy that's living under the sea,
of course, in Florida, justoff the Key Largo, the Keys in
Florida. There he's living thirty footdown in the lagoon. This is his
seventy fourth day, which breaks therecord for the longest time living in a

(08:05):
depressurized little containment unit under the water. And he says that he works out
every day. He's trying to studythe effects on what it does to your
body. He's going to be theretill June ninth. He's not done yet.
One hundred days. You said thatyou want to break a world record,
maybe we should switch from pickles andput you under the water. And
she just wants to get rid ofyou. That's very transparent, Kimmy.

(08:28):
You don't have to hide that alittle bit, you know, now that
I think about it, that mightbe a nice little break from the kids.
Silence of sea level. Yeah,they call him Doctor Deep Sea and
he's going for the he's already brokethe record, but he wants to set
it at one hundred. And hewas talking about, you know, the
study that he's doing here on thehuman body. The idea here is to

(08:48):
populate the world's oceans, to takecare of the world's oceans by living in
them and really treating them well,not necessarily, Oh, just make another
record. Can you imagine just likewaking up till just rolling by the window
underwater hotels. Yeah. Well,I think the other thing too that in
the studio which I found any thing, is that they're they're trying to see
what it does to the physical partyof body living below sea level in with

(09:11):
the pressure. And what he saysis he's never slept better in his life.
Yeah. I mean, I don'tknow how your cell reception is thirty
people in the water. We canget a good reception just walking around Atlanta.
But then also the inflammation on yourbody is supposed to be a lot
a lot lower, so like theswelling, you have the joint pain and
stiffness. Maybe it's because it's likea giant weighted blanket. Yeah, and

(09:33):
then then the ocean sound how youmaybe just how your blood flows. But
I do like the idea that they'retrying to create, Like basically, this
is just to see if we canput hotels underwater, right, I mean
that's what they're doing. He's like, no, I want to see if
it how it feels on your body. That's absolutely not true. You're trying
to put in some sort of likelagoon hotel so people can come stay and
feel like they're doing like some pressureized sleeping or whatever, when really you're

(09:54):
just trying to make Just looking atthis guy, he looks like a hippie.
I'm just wondering how he smokes weedunder there, because definitely, yeah,
it's like seaweed. Bro. Myfavorite quote from him, though,
the thing I missed most is thesun. Yeah. Yeah, ninety four

(13:11):
and otis with you this morning.It's the mood Kimmy Otis intervention. If
you ever have something going on inyour world you want us to help you
out get to the bottom of it. We are here for you. We
have got Thomas from Dawsonville. Thomas, you got a bit of an issue
with a graduation party situation coming uphere really quickly. Yeah, next weekend,
and I haven't actually graduated yet.I will, I will. It's

(13:35):
a big gilt. That's a majorprerequisite for the graduation party. Technically would
be the graduation. Yeah, it'sjust a party to party, right,
it's like a technicality. I've gotone more class. I was slacked off
a little at the beginning of thesemester, and I just need to retake
this class. But it's nothing,it's super easy. I just didn't go.
So now I got to think herethat a lot of people might hear
that and think, how has thathappened? But when you're not planning the

(13:58):
entire four years out, sometimes youdrop a class, you know, you
take a lighter schedule, and thenyou look at your senior semester and you're
like, oh, sweet Jesus,it's just gonna be tight. Thank you.
Yes, I hope my mom takesit this well, you understand.
So that's the real issue here.I know it's no good deal. I'm
walking with my class. I've alreadysorted it all out, and we have
family coming in from all over theplace, so I don't want to freak
my mom out because the party's gonnahappen no matter what. It's just that

(14:20):
I have one more class tepping ifyou going to take and she's gonna find
out. So I have to tellher you want to break up before the
party. So it's not like everybody'scheering you on. Let me look inside
that folder? Is there a paperand that Fowler? There's no paper?
Paper? Well, you need abuffer, you use somebody on your side.
It's good. Yeah that it soundslike you guys can be that for
me. Yeah, I we'll try. We'll I'll be on this adventure together

(14:41):
to find out how your mom takesit. That the party is not really
a graduation party anymore. It's asomeday graduation party very soon. All right,
we're gonna talk to her next.But have you ever had to cop
to living a lie? Something thatyou just didn't tell somebody, You had
to fess up? Four or fourseven four one h ninety four nine mood,
Kimmy and otis the intervention. We'vegot Thomas with us, We've got

(15:03):
his mom, Adriana on hold.We're gonna try to help him break the
news that for the graduation party thatshe's throwing flying family into town that you
may not be graduating. She's hurtnone of this. Let's pull her up
right now. Good morning, Adriana'smood. Kimmy. Otis here on ninety
four point on the bull. Howare you, good morning? I'm okay.
Well, you know that we haveyour son Thomas on with us,

(15:24):
and Thomas, you want to jumpin here and let your mom know why
we're pestering her. We're celebrating graduateson the show. Yes, and Thomas
has something exciting to tell you abouthis situation coming up. I know you're
excited as a mom, kind ofsetting it the wrong way, but go
ahead, Thomas, jumping before Otisburies you. I just wanted to let
you know it's a really no bigdeal at all. So the graduation party

(15:45):
is gonna be awesome. I'm soexcited to see it. Nancy is just
one little thing. I won't havetechnically graduated by the time the party happens.
I have just like one more creditI have to take. It's gonna
be fine. I'm gonna do it. I'm walking graduation. I just I'm
not going to get my diploma untilafter I take this classic I like,

(16:06):
Thomas is down just filling it withwords. You're letting your mom get in
on this. You're not going tograduate on time. We have on a
party technically, but like, what'sthe difference. I can print out a
cificate because I will be graduated,you know. Yeah, I'm going to
explain this to your uncle and yourdad. I don't even think you really
have to. I'm gonna walk intoceremony so they don't need to know.

(16:27):
Oh man, okay, yeah,you seem kind of okay, you're not
too mad. I kind of didthe same thing and my son did.
I can't be super mad at himas long as he's going to be graduated.
And I didn't even know you coulddo it. That's a trait.
Yeah, I mean I feel likefashionably late on the graduation everybody in your

(16:49):
family. That's how we do.Ah, did you tell your parents when
you did it? No? Actuallydid I tell my parents? So we
can just keep it on between him. All right, we're gonna definitely have
to take you. Don't worry.I'll call rot before you if you want.
If you need help. No not, don't snitch on her. We

(17:10):
were talking about graduations. We gota lot of counties graduating in the next
two weeks. High schools all overthe place, college is all over Georgia.
A lot of already graduated kids havewalked. So for the next couple
of weeks, we want to shoutout those graduates. Hit us on that
iHeart talkback, hold that microphone down, tell us who's graduating something great about
him. Speaking of graduation, Ifind this story hilarious because it just shows

(17:32):
you how petty people are. Twotime national champion quarterback stets And Bennett.
So far it is being reported bya bunch of buzzards circling haters that he
has no record of graduating University ofGeorgia, which I just think it's funny
for like six years at least,like the Van Wilder of UGA. It's

(17:52):
so on brand for stets and Bennett. Yeah, just to not graduating priorities,
right, Like he's going to beplaying professional football, right. I
think the only reason he's not stillin colleges because he wasn't eligible anymore,
right, And they're like, he'slike, well, eligibility. Maybe it
was fun, but I'm going tothe NFL. It's just patty. He's
twenty five years old. So thejoke on him all year was that he's

(18:14):
playing football with kids, right,which is just so ridiculous. He's playing
for the La Rams now and Kimmy, you asked like, how do you
verify that? Well, technically,if you're going to verify someone graduated from
something like if you apply for ajob and you brag about graduating, they
can verify that you do or don'thave a diploma. I guess that's true.
There's no way for them to knowif you're really an employer. I

(18:37):
found the link UGA graduated this pastfriday, so I think everybody looking through
the booklet was like, wait asecond, Stetson Bennett is not along this
list, and that's where the showup for walking. I mean, that
would have been a big deal becauseI'm sure, you know, there's a
lot of football players who did walk, and I'm sure they walk at a
section together, you know, ifthey don't want to walk with the graduating

(18:57):
school they're in, whether it's engineeringor uh, you know, social whatever,
social studies. Um, but Ithink we can verify this. I
think we can email the registrar's officeand ask him Stetson Bennett has a diploma
because we're looking at maybe trying tohire him. I'm gonna put I'm gonna
put a job offer out to Stetsonto see if he wants to cover U

(19:18):
J for us next year. AndI gotta know, if you graduated well,
it'd be be great to see himplaying for the Rams, and him
and Matthew Stafford can retire at thesame time you. Of course, Otis
is probably the one who meeked thestory later over there, right ninety four
point nine the ball Rachel Alexa answersyour questions now with mood killing an ODIs.

(19:40):
It's advice with an attitude. Let'sdo this. We gotta ratch Alexa
with some attitude. By the way, everyone to listen on Alexa. Just
ask her to play ninety four pointnine. The ball oars would probably say
no because that's how she rolls,But we like to ask her your questions.
Yeah, not feeling it today,Liz and Alpharetta asks Alexa, how
do I reverse aging? This oneis easy? Just lie about your age.

(20:02):
I don't know why there is sucha stigma about this. Who cares
what your age really is? Bethe age that you want to be,
the age that makes you feel happy. And confident about yourself. I have
no idea how old I am,and look how happy I am every day.
I am all sunshine and rainbows.Look at that right. I want
to be the age that Martha Stewartcontinues to remain at. You know,

(20:22):
looks thirty five, she's eighty one. I want to know what she had
to sell to the devil. Imean, you haven't seen her on the
cover of Sports Illustrated and all thepictures. I mean, I don't want
accuse someone an airbrushing, that wouldbe rude. But something something's gone on
there. Maybe snoop dog's got thatcush that's perfect, Maybe marijuana. Alicia

(20:44):
and Marietta asks Alexa, summer isalmost year. What do I do with
my kids? Set them free,let them run wild. I don't know
why parents panic so much and feellike they have to find things for them
to do. Just send them outsideand tell them to build a fourth I'm
wearing be paying for dinner. Thekids are getting too soft nowadays, and
parents are spending too much money oncamps. Bring back the days of entertaining

(21:07):
yourself kids, right, my mom, just to get outside and go do
something. Street lamps come on that'swhen you go home. My parents were
never entertaining me. I was outin the woods picking up snakes and trying
not to die. I'm bored.We'll go test our health insurance. Deductive
will get out of here, andBen inks asks Alexa, how do I
get my coworkers to stop talking tome? I have a solution for you,

(21:32):
but you better be a good actor. Just burst into tears every time
someone annoying starts talking to you.Trust me, they will stop talking to
you real quick. Nothing makes peoplemore uncomfortable than people crying when all they
wanted to do was make small talkand gossip about the office. That makes
me think of when you're like,hey, how's your day going and somebody
starts just nope, I tell you, actually it's going terrible. Yeah,

(21:56):
thanks for asking. That's not whatI mean. I didn't want to really
know how I've left me. Shetook the dog in the truck, Hey
where are you going? They getback here. She also took the house.
Come on in the trailer. Inthe boat is
