Welcome to non headline News, theextended version extend. Thank you. I'm
Scotty. That's Hannah, of course. Where we're at the iHeartRadio crew in
Greensboro, North Carolina. Just togive you a little context, it's the
triad we love to call it.Greensboro, Winston, Salem, High Point.
I'm partial to Winston myself. Iknow Paul is great, but I
do love me some Winston. Iknow you are. Okay, let's get
(00:22):
right into something. Actually is SouthernChick fil Ay from Georgia. Of course
they're closed on Sundays. Everybody knowsthat. But there is a politician in
New York who wants to change that. Assemblyman Tony Simone, I've probably butchered
that introduced to bill saying Chick filA could easily serve their customers better if
(00:46):
their restaurants are open seven days aweek, he said, and if they
can't, they shouldn't be in ourrest stops. I guess this addresses restaurants
that serve travelers on certain roots andit's somehow a contract with the state,
Okay, And he's saying, ifthese people can't be opened seven days a
(01:06):
week, we shouldn't have them asour go to restaurant. Then why do
you ask them to be a partof it in the beginning, you miss
Hannah. That's for the wending iningding a thirty three year contract wow signed.
I don't know exactly how long ago. It doesn't say in the story,
but yeah, this was not asurprise. They've been doing business since
nineteen forty six. They were undera name called Dwarf Grill Restaurant originally,
(01:30):
and then Chick fil A in nineteensixty seven. They've always been closed on
Sundays. You know what I didthe other day that was very out of
character for me. I went toChick fil A. Well, like,
I love Chick fil A, I'malways there, but I only allow myself
to get one of their grilled options, so I always get the grilled chicken
sandwich or the grilled spicy cool rap. I had this spicy chicken to luck.
Oh you, rend I went forfried chicken and oh my god,
(01:53):
you are rowdy. It was delicious, it was amazing. I had to
check myself afterwards. Did you sitin the car and secretly eat it or
did you take it home and dothis in full view of your significant others?
I ate it in the spot you'resitting in right now, Okay,
right there in this very studio.By the way, I think we're all
in agreement. Chick filegis to dowhatever they want. Yeah, and this
(02:15):
politician. Yeah, listen, regardlessabout your relationship with the man upstairs or
whatever it is, don't mess withthe Christian's chicken. Yo. That's right,
that's right. Okay. Here's astory that will make you laugh and
kind of feel bad at the sametime. Okay, it's a guy who's
a huge fan of Reba McIntyre.Not unlike yourself. Riba is a goddess.
(02:37):
She's amazing and he had waited hisentire life to see her, and
his mother in law was going tomake that dream come true. She bought
tickets for him and the family togo see Reba McIntyre right there in their
good old hometown. So off theywent to see Reba McIntyre, and then
Riba takes the stage and Riba sounds, I don't know, a little different
(03:02):
than you would expect to Reba tosound. Here here's the clip that this
guy's wife shared on social media.Reba McIntyre, she's a little off.
(03:22):
That night, it sounds yeah,RepA didn't warm up. Maybe it's because
it wasn't Reba all it was aReba tribute. It was an impression tribute.
This happened in Texas, and thewoman felt bad but gave her husband
credit. I just have to say, I'm so proud of my husband for
(03:43):
sitting there and just taking it,because then I'm like, guys, you
don't understand. This is my husband'swoman we're talking about. Okay, his
soul is crushed right now. Hewas supposed to say Reba McIntyre, but
instead he got great value Reba.Everybody died laughing. We now are in
a joking little circle, like youknow, we were all making jokes,
making light of it, trying tobreak my mom's uneasiness because she invited everybody
(04:09):
saying it was Reba and it's notRiba, and she spent a lot of
money. It was still a reallygood time. Somebody online called called her
Temu reap. I like that.I feel so bad though, for that
little old lady who just like shehad all the good and great attentions,
right, but like, imagine beingthe guy who really wanted to go and
you're amped up and then what soundslike Riba doesn't even sound like her.
(04:31):
Let's be real, it probably doesn'tlook like her either. Takes a stage
and you're like, well, see, the problem is she kind of did
look like Riba. And the concern, as this woman implied there, was
that people around her in the backor in the back section wouldn't even have
known had they not said something.So, yeah, it's a bit of
a disappointment. Imagine that you're ahuge fan of a band, you get
(04:53):
there and it's a tribute to thatband. Okay, so double check your
tickets. I guess maybe is thepoint of the story, right, Okay,
brand new year, brand new foodoptions, but some have gone away.
We said goodbye to twenty twenty three. Let's do the in memoriam for
folly for food discontinued. That sickjust seemed like the right song for it,
(05:19):
KFC. Okay, he's gotten ridof their wings, their popcorn,
chicken Nashville hot sauce, oh,and chocolate chip cookies. Why I mean
I would eat most of the thingson that many that they got rid of
those sound delish. Maybe it's becauseyou didn't, probably right, But yet
they still have the fried liver orwhatever. Remember the one in Winston you
(05:41):
went to the Gizzards. I lovethat well, I love Gizzards. They
had liver. There we go.I like Gizzards. Better bring that back,
all right. Wendy's grilled chicken sandwiches. I loved that chicken sandwich and
I would Wendy's. I support yourorganization, but they've replaced it with the
grilled wraps. Not as good,not as good. And you're a rap
fan. I love me a goodrap. Wicked, wicked. Okay,
(06:03):
Dairy Queen's cherry dipped cones are gone. Are we really missing out on that?
Well, some people are. McDonald'sentire macafe bakery lineup is gone.
They had one, Yeah, andthen the Taco Bell cas rito. You've
(06:24):
had that? Do you need atissue? Was it good? No?
I needed some toilet paper pepto afterwards. I'm sure it'll come back though,
just like it did the first time. I ate it. Hello there,
Okay, we finished with this story. Okay, sorry, I shouldn't laugh.
A guy in Australia, kid seventeenyears old, is is stung,
(06:48):
attacked, bitten whatever they do byan octopus. Oh no, he was
looking for Michelle's on the seashore andapparently he had gotten this for some young
relatives and as he was delivering theseshells, out of one of these comes
a tiny, little toxic octopus whichemits a paralyzing some sort of staysh and
(07:16):
this kid, it said it couldhave taken his life. Oh my goodness,
could have paralyzed him. He wastreated for six hours and somehow,
fortunately this young and from Australia isgoing to survive. Australia wants to kill
you. I don't know if youknow this, do you know what have
happened? If that was me andI went back to my mom saying I
was stung by and she had havebeen like, you're fine, shake it
(07:38):
off. Yeah. Yeah. Idid see on Instagram though, the other
day it was this guy in Floridawho threw like a water bottle into a
washed out road. He was tryingto drive through it and all of a
sudden, like a gator just likewhat And then it cuts to a guy
in Australia seeing something along the linesof like, I don't know why you
Americans freak out about what we havein Australia, Like it's just part of
(08:00):
life, YadA, YadA, YadA. And then a woman comes on and
she's like, I'm doing a reallygreat job of telling this story. She's
like, no, that was inAmerica. Yeah, because you think it's
Australia until you realize. And she'slike, and we have that stuff too,
and yes, we do worry aboutit as well. Yeah, and
Florida is the Australia of the UnitedStates in a way. And I was
thinking about this as well. Anothergreat reason to live here in the triad
(08:22):
of North Carolina. Not a lotof octopus attacks I've as far as I've
seen, and maybe I was goneon a cruise for a little while.
