He's throwing up everything.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
He's been doing it for two days and he would
not eat yesterday and his eyes kept rolling in the
back of his head.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
Did you take him to the vet?

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
My vet wasn't there.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
She's continuing her education, so she's out for the week.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
She needs a week to get back.

Speaker 3 (01:04):

Speaker 2 (01:04):
I don't know when. Her assistant was like, he probably
got into something. I was like, well, what do I do?
She's like, you just gotta wait it out.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
I guess.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
I was like, uh huh, so it's a waiting see game. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
I boiled chicken last night. He didn't need it, but
he ate some this morning, so we'll see. Think he's better.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
On the Alabama Show, Heinz just debuted a Ketchup smoothie.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yum.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Heines and Smoothie King just teamed up for a Heinz
Tomato Ketchup smoothie. It doesn't just have Ketchup in it.
It also has strawberries, raspberries, apple juice.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
And other flavors with it and Ketchup.

Speaker 6 (02:18):
I know.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
But it all started because Smoothie King was saying, if
tomatoes are a fruit, is catch up a smoothie?

Speaker 2 (02:24):
And so now it's available and we can all have one.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
I guess this is a baby that was meant to
be born.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
What it's super easy trivia with the Alabama Show.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Jenna, Good morning. I know you're on your way to work.
Where do you work?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
What do you do Alexandra High schoolroom. Oh hey, thank
you for what you do.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Welcome back to school this week. Yes, anything crazy happened
in the first week already.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Let's see, like the first kids work.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Wow, do you just not have enough food? Or anybody
showed up? When do your food?

Speaker 7 (03:01):
I guess the teenagers and you know, and then a
lot of them didn't come to school the first day.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
All right, well.

Speaker 4 (03:12):
Business, very well, all right, Well you want to play
super easy trivia and win tickets.

Speaker 4 (03:20):
All right, Jenna, I asked the questions producer, Blake, is
your lifeline?

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Are you ready?

Speaker 4 (03:24):
No? Question number one? What is something that you hit
with the hammer?

Speaker 2 (03:30):

Speaker 8 (04:04):

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Congratulations, you are going to see Maroon five in Atlanta.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
It's three things you need to know you with the
Elvema show.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Turkey Creek Nature Preserve could be adding three hundred acres
real soon.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
You've never been to Turkey Creek.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
Before, not that I'm aware of.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
This is right up the road from where I live.
I grew up going to swim in Turkey Creek. You
have not lived until you have experienced the greatness of
Turkey Creek.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
I'm making you go anyway.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
The Forever Wild Board approved to move forward with plans
to buy multiple tracks of land. In one of the
largest expansions was adding two pieces of land to Turkey
Creek Nature Preserve, so that'd be over three hundred acres,
which would be awesome. Chat GPT just got a big
upgrade yesterday. How well, apparently it'll stop hallucinating, which I

(04:55):
didn't know it did this, but the creator said that
if it doesn't no information and it'll just make up
information and not say it.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Doesn't know, So now it will do that less.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
It's also going to be better everything from writing to
math to coding and giving health advice. So it's like
having access to a legitimate PhD level expert in anything.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
And it has four new personalities.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
You tell me, this thing hasn't known what it's been
saying this whole time.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
I was like, what you'll tell us that before I've
been taking all so much advice from GPT. What the anyway,
Kelly Clarkson's ex husband passed away at forty eight.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Did you see this?

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Yeah? I feel very bad for the kids.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Absolutely.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
He had been dealing with cancer for three years privately.
And sources do say that Kelly is devastated for her kids.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
That are eleven and nine years old.

Speaker 4 (05:52):
You know, she filed for divorce in twenty twenty and
the split was finalized in twenty twenty two, but it
was kind of a messy divorce. But they say that
she still always wanted her kids to have a good
relationship with their dad, so she is really devastated for them.
That's three things you need to know more at the
Alabama Show dot com.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
We're listening to The Alabama Show on demand.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Good morning, Susan.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
What's your issue for Ask Alabama?

Speaker 1 (06:19):
My mother in law is driving me crazy.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
That's why we do ask Alabama. If you ever need help,
we do our best. Eight three three five I one
Bama is the number. What's going on with your mother
in law?

Speaker 4 (06:31):
Well, we have a huge party coming up and I
have put on a little bit.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Of wait okay, uh huh, and she seems to.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Bring it up every single time we have dinner, which
is once a week?

Speaker 2 (06:43):
What do you mean, Like, what is she saying to you?

Speaker 3 (06:46):
A little side notes like maybe you shouldn't put that
on your plate.

Speaker 6 (06:50):
You know, we have this huge family blah blah blah
party coming up.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
It'll be side things like that she pulled me aside
one day and.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
Pickingo, honey, I really have noticed that your cants are
getting tight.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I you do. So it's a lot of stuff like that,
and that you're really.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Making me, you know, insecure at this point?

Speaker 2 (07:08):
What do you say about it?

Speaker 7 (07:10):
All the time?

Speaker 1 (07:11):
I tell her remind her own business and now and
to leave me alone. I mean, I'm picking up for myself.

Speaker 7 (07:16):
But this is just getting out of control.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
And my husband's not saying anything to her. Now, that's
the problem. Your husband needs to be sticking up for you. You're
his wife, his mother is he's cut cord.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
I wouldn't invite her.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
To dinner anymore.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Well, you know what, I have talked to him about
having these weekly dinners that why is this necessary?

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I just can't handle it anymore. She's rude, I'm stressed.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Out, and he says, no, he wants to have these
dinner if he wants to spend.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Time with family, and we've been fighting over this. This's
is now a huge.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Fractureucer Blake, what what would you do if, say, you
marrying your girlfriend and your mom is getting on your
girlfriend's nerves, and then your girlfriend says, I don't want
to be around your mom anymore?

Speaker 2 (07:59):
What are you going to do?

Speaker 3 (08:00):
I'm starting with my girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Oh, you were a good, good guy you married.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
When you get married, you two become one.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
You don't take the side of anyone else because now
you were the same, like you're under one house.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
I agree my mom.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
My mom can go suck a shoe.

Speaker 8 (08:16):
In comparison, put on the line, I'll tell his mom
to go suck a shoe.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Called the show.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Eight three three five oh one BAMA is the number
if you want to weigh in, or if you have
a mother in law that you need Producer Blake.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
To say, go suck a shoe. I think we need
to quit saying this.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
We're going to get in trouble.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
I hate three three five oh one BAMA is the number.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
You're listening to the Alabama Show on demand.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
Eight three three five on one BAMA is the number
to call the show.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Do you have a mother in law story, Andrew.

Speaker 7 (08:51):
Oh yeah, okay, let's hear it. My exa one time
mom mom commented on that her weight. We used to
meet every Sunday for dinner. The next time we all
met up, my wife has cooked my mom's favorite meal
that she always cooks, but a whole lot better. And

(09:12):
in the same meal, she'd convinced everybody in the family
and the table that my mom had redden flags and
everybody was laughing at her by the end.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Of the meal, red flags like what about.

Speaker 7 (09:23):
How she was picky about certain things, and how she
was controlling and manipulative and pointed out all my mom's flat.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
So your wife basically invited your mom over for dinner
to roaster.

Speaker 7 (09:35):
Oh my god, Yes, it got intent. It was so
great man. She didn't come in on her wait anymore.
Oh yeah, it got real too. It's real fast. I
loved it.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
I love you, Andrew, thank you for calling.

Speaker 7 (09:50):
Hey. I love y'all too. I hope you have an
amazing Friday.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
It's what the hell headlines?

Speaker 2 (09:56):
What the hell are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (09:58):
On the Alabama Show, a burglar got caught taking a
shower in the victim's home. Why just makes yourself at home, buddy,
I call it Buttercup because this story gets crazier and crazier.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
So a man, Samuel Adams, was.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Arrested when cops were called after one am. He was
in the people's home and the husband and wife heard
somebody in the bathroom. They went upstairs to check it,
saw the man in the shower. He jumped out of
the shower, rushed the husband, knocked him over.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
The wife called nine one one.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
The cops show up, and before the cops could get there,
he ran downstairs to the kitchen, open the refrigerator chugged
a Coca Cola. Then the cops found him from a
trail of blood because he was bleeding.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
They found him.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
He said he was an FBI agent. Came through a
unlocked door in the garage because he thought a mob
of people were shooting at him. They get him in
the cop car. They're driving him to the police station.
He slips out of the handcuffs and tries to escape,
so they have to taze him to get him back
under control.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Now he's in jail.

Speaker 5 (11:00):
I'm gonna be honest with you. Everything you just said,
not a single thing said that. He got dressed again.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
It's three things you need to know you with the
Alabama Show.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
A rare eighty four million year old dinosaur tooth was
just found in Alabama, in Alabama, in western Alabama and
Shark Tooth Creek.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
It's a rare hadrossore tooth. Do you know what kind
of dinosaur that is?

Speaker 3 (11:25):
If you're saying it correctly.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
No, Well, we'll google it in a minute.

Speaker 4 (11:28):
It's significant because the area would have been underwater during
the age of dinosaurs, so it gives scientists new clues
about dinosaurs. But yeah, eighty four million old dinosaur tooth
right here.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
I'm pretty interested.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Dell and good Old Sweet Home, Alabama. Lego just dropped
two new Wednesday sets that are going to be available
in October. One of them these are cool. I actually
might go by these, and I don't buy Legos. One
of them is Moretsha's Cottage, which includes like the black
car and little Mortisia figures.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
In the whole family.

Speaker 4 (11:59):
And the other one is Things Apartment and you get
a little hand this thing like a.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
Big hand, like you can hang it out.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
You don't get a big hand, you get a little hand.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
All these legos come on if you've already started watching
season two, which just dropped on Wednesday. You've seen his apartment.
It's in like a trunk, so that's what it looks like.
And these are going to be the two biggest sets
in the Wednesday series. So they're a little expensive ones
like one hundred and nine and the other one's eighty
nine dollars.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
We know what Hellbum is putting her next paycheck on.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
I know i'd buy that. Look up to the skies
this weekend.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
We have a rare sky watching treat right after the
sunset on today and tomorrow and even Sunday, so for
three days, the moon is going to rise right after
the sunset, which it has so like you can sit
out watch the sunset, but then the full moon immediately
comes up and it's a sturgeon full moon.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
I'm a full moon nerd Just watch it. Go outside
and watch it. It's gonna be a pretty moon. Go
see it tonight. It's gonna rise one minute after the sunset.

Speaker 4 (12:58):
Touch gress is what you you touch grass, It grounds you.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
It's good for you to stand barefoot. That's another rabbit hole.
I'm not just go watch the moon.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
That's three things you need to know.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
Yes, it is more at the Alabama Show dot com.

This is the first week of my little cousin, Hannah
being a teacher for the first time ever in her life.
She's teaching second grade and we've been checking in with
her every day. So when she started, she was crying
on her way to work because she said she was
so blessed to be able to do this.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
The day two a little bit changed.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
Yeah, day two she accidentally put a kid on the
wrong bus, but everything else was fine. So yesterday was
day three. Let's call her on our way to school
to see how it went. How did yesterday being a
teacher go? We got our crime books yesterday, oh glass,
and now have to side in contract.

Speaker 2 (14:12):

Speaker 2 (14:18):
They all shut down. They were like, did anybody cry?

Speaker 1 (14:25):
She was like, I can to.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
You literally just signed the contract.

Speaker 4 (14:32):

going great.

to use your brain.

Today's about to be the greatest day ever. On The
Alabama Show.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
I wouldn't say so.

Speaker 8 (16:24):
I'm Alabama with producer Blake and I found.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
Out something about our good old buddy.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
Earlier this week.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
I don't like this.

Speaker 4 (16:36):
I was trying to get them to come get a petticure,
and eventually it comes out that Producer Blake has a
wonky toe.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
Okay, look my toes other than the one look good.
They're fine.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
What's wrong with the other one?

Speaker 3 (16:49):
I broke it on an elliptical one time.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
What does it look like?

Speaker 5 (16:54):
It looks like a half banana where it's curved in
and it lays on its side.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
It does Wait, how does it lay on its side?

Speaker 2 (17:01):
We can't.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
We can't if it's you can't sit straight up like
the other.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
Does your fingernails not on the top your toe? Nails
like going out.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
To the hut on top of the toes to the side.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
And a curves in which toe?

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Is this?

Speaker 5 (17:15):
There's no need bringing this up to everybody.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
I've been asking producer Blake to show it to me for.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
A week and he won't. I'm not going to show
you my day toe.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
So I've decided that today on the show, we're going
to name his weird toe.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
I don't like this, don't somebody in the chat? We
do a TikTok live.

Speaker 4 (17:41):
Go follow Alabama Radio if you want to join somebody
in the chat, said Toejay Simpson.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
We had too many clever people in our chat yesterday.

Speaker 9 (17:50):
Toe Rogan, don't need to get this bar on again.
Toe Minagio, I'm gonna lose it today.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
If you would have showed me the toe, we wouldn't
be naming it on the air.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Usually would.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
They probably have more reason to name it.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
I want you to pick up your phone right now.

Speaker 4 (18:12):

I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
