Speaker 2 (01:18):
You guys may have noticed I wearing a new shirt.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
There's been a lot of talk out there that it
could be one of the next great Hawaiian shirt.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Guys.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Question, Yeah, shoot, you know, I'm colorblind. Is that toffee colored?

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, kind of toffee color. Well Thanksgiving vibe, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Not a real summer look though, we're pineapple Thanksgiving in Hawaii.
I think it's I think it's not a ripe pineapple.
So yesterday, I this is how I this is how
worried I am about mauls.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
And I think we all are.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
What early on, you're not worried about males, Like sometimes
you go into a mall and you're like, oh les
feels like it feels like, I don't know, escape from
New York. That's malls barely in business. Half these stores
are closed. I've now expanded it to I just fear
the future of commerce. I'm not like donating to malls. Well,
I drove by them all, so I'm just I'm like,

(02:11):
I'm not a fashion czar, like I just my whole life,
you know, I'll just pop in at Dillard's and buy
a couple of shirts.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
I'm good.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
And so I rent by Dillards and they weren't open
at like ten am, and I was like, oh, maybe
this mall's closed, you know, it wasn't. So I went
by after work and I was like, all right, I
need to get a couple of shirts, so I ran
in there. So I am one of those people that's
very self conscious about trying on a bunch of shirts
or clothes and just leaving them in a dressing room
for someone to deal with. So I go out of

(02:40):
my way to put them back on hangars, and then
I put them back as I'm going, yeah, what about.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
When they're like dress shirts though, and they have all
those pins?

Speaker 1 (02:48):
I can't do that, but you know, these are like
golf shirts or whatever, and so had I had my
wallet and my ID badge from my heart and all
my stuff in this room and my actual clothes, and
while I would try on new shirts, i'd take three
or four out and rehanng them up and take two
or three back into trymon. And so I came back
to my dressing room and the door was closed, and

(03:09):
I tried to open it and it was locked. And
I was like, all my stuff's in there, And I
was like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, is someone in there?
And they're like, oh yeah, did you need these shirts
in here?

Speaker 7 (03:20):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Another guy had gone in there to try he took
over my dressing room. How many dressing rooms were there?
There was three?

Speaker 1 (03:27):
And I guess the other doors were closed. He assumed
there was people in them. I don't know if there were,
but he jumped in mine. Now, I already had my
existing real clothes and my shoes and my wallet, all
my stuff in there, and a couple other shirts that
I was keeping. And then I'd taken the shirts I
wasn't going to buy and put them up, and I
was grabbing a couple more to go try on, and
then I was going to leave, and so he goes.

Speaker 6 (03:47):
Oh, yeah, did you need these shirts? I go, yeah,
I wasn't through in there. I just had to take
some shirts back out here and grab a few more.
Didn't say anything. Oh, And he stayed in for ten minutes.
Oh my god, he went through all your stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
And then I finally got distracted and I was like, man,
I'm sick of waiting. So I just went and looked
for more shirts, and I didn't go that far away,
and I came back and he was gone, did you
go through all your stuff to make all.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
My stuff was there? It's fine? Yeah, but what who
does that? What kind of a maniac does it? Do
you need these shirts? Wouldn't you just go?

Speaker 5 (04:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (04:21):
Here?

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Let me get out of here. When was this yesterday?

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah, there's no way your complete identity hadn't been stolen
in repurpose.

Speaker 7 (04:27):
Well, but also that's very brave of you to leave
your wallet.

Speaker 8 (04:30):
In the room.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
I wandered off like fifteen feet.

Speaker 6 (04:32):
Yeah it was.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
It was a ghost land. There wasn't anybody shopping there.
Do we know that it was actually a person?

Speaker 4 (04:38):
No?

Speaker 2 (04:38):
I don't. I still don't know, I guess.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah, okay, Dillard's So, thank you for all your conflidens
on my new shirt.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, who you talking to you right now?

Speaker 6 (04:50):
We so?

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I think so you don't see a lot of that
this time?

Speaker 9 (04:57):
All that? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Who are you making fun of with your shirt? I
want to update. I want to up day you guys
on something. The number one thing that is taking up
most of my time on social media is rewatching a
clip from the I think it's an eighties movie called
Mac and Me. I told you about it the other day. Yeah,
it's an Eten knockoff and a good one. It's supposed
to be a feel good, funny, silly knockoff movie. But

(05:19):
there's a scene from it where a kid like I
want to say, he's probably eight years old, but he's
sprouted up to the size of a giant, and his
sweats he's wearing gray sweats that don't fit him, and
so it this whole mid drift showing. And he walks
into the room and he's kind of lean down so
his head doesn't hit the ceiling, and there's doctors and
scientists in there, and they're like, i'd like you to
meet this new doctor, and he's like, i'd like you,

(05:40):
and he starts cussing at me, gets really mad. So
this is the social media that's this has taken up
most of my time.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
I want you to meet my colleague, doctor Hamilton, and.

Speaker 7 (05:49):
I'll like you to get there.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
It's all right.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I don't ever want to see the real movie. I
don't want to know the context, but I love that. Yeah,
but I did want to tell you there is a
new piece of social media that somehow is challenging that.
And I watched this all the time and I don't
know why, and I'm just gonna play it for you embarrassingly.

Speaker 9 (06:12):
So this is Randy with Fresh Chili Company, and I'm
gonna tell you all if this green chili sauce five
seven five is not the best you have ever had
you call customer service and they'll send your money back,
no questions, asking you keep the product. But I can
guarantee you it ain't going to happen.

Speaker 7 (06:34):
A drinking.

Speaker 9 (06:37):
It ain't going to happen.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Trust me, awsure have a great day, Eve Moore Chili.

Speaker 9 (06:46):
Make sure it's from Hatch, New Mexico, where the area
codes five seven five. It is not five well five,
all right, support our local farmers.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
Just a guys, boy, it's the deepest voice I've ever
heard in my life.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Our show on the Freak.

Speaker 6 (07:01):
He's got the biggest burger ever and he dumps this
chili sauce on it and he eats it and he's
like and goulfing this huge bite and then talking with
that deep voice.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
I without incredible. My people.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
All right, there you have it. There's the show intro.
We're off and running. Where are you gonna take some things?
Skin is tracking. I have a couple of local stories
that have me very excited. Ben and Skin Show ninety
seven point one The Eagle, Thanks for hanging out with
us on a hump day. Now, we got a four

Speaker 2 (08:16):
But right now it's time for this skinny track, another
edition of things.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
It is tracking all right.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
I got a couple stories here. They're local in nature.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
One we should probably go ahead and mention this one
more time because we've been doing it all week long,
and that is here at iHeart. We encourage you to
give to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund community Foundation
dot net. That's Communityfoundation dot net. Now I like seeing
these stories where people are chipping in and helping out.

(08:51):
For example, this morning I looked on my Instagram account,
Live Nation is donating a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Now, Live Nation has been good partners with us here
at iHeart and on the station. We've done events with them.
They were a great partner of ours when we did BFD, Like,
we love our friends at Live Nation. They're chipping in
a million dollars. I love to see that. Are you
guys familiar with the Fort Worth artist Josh Weathers.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yes, I saw him with Eric nadel years ago. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Eric Nadell is a big Josh Weathers fan. I wanted
to give you guys quick little stories. I think you're
gonna love it. Josh Weathers was supposed to do shows
down in the Hill Country this past weekend and they
got canceled because of the weather. Josh Weathers I consider
him to be kind of like an Americana country artist,
you know, not Nashville country and not even straight Texas

(09:42):
red dirt country's kind of type.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, somewhere in that realm. That's not a bad comparison.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
And so anyways, he was like, Okay, well and he
maybe I'll do a live stream instead and donate that money.
And then he ended up doing a live stream. He
thought he'd do a He did it with his whole band,
He threw it together, and he did it at his
church out there in Fort Worth because they had the
ability to live stream because they do their services and
all that. And then his wife just put out there

(10:10):
on Facebook if anybody has anything they want to donate,
So he's thinking, you know, maybe i'll raise some money.

Speaker 9 (10:15):
Here.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
He's ten minutes into his live stream and he sees
that ten thousand dollars have already.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Been donatd oh, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
By the end of it, they had raised three hundred
and thirty seven thousand dollars in four hours. Wow. And
the silent auctions aren't done yet until midnight tonight, so
they don't even know the full total.

Speaker 7 (10:35):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
But man, shout out to all those people that just
gave him items to donate the church for saying yeah,
live stream and suddenly that is a significant amount of
money for a Texas artist to just throw together at
the last.

Speaker 9 (10:49):
Minute and do.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Look these Yeah, that's incredibly impressive.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
These these tragedies when they happen, obviously they gut us,
but we typically are swimming political toxicity and Karen's and
just horrible things, and we're not nice to each other.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
It's just awful out there.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
But when you see the way that you know, communities
bounce back and show resiliency and rally around one another,
that's those are the things that restore your faith in
humanity absolutely.

Speaker 9 (11:17):
Man.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
All right, this next local story is super local. Did
you guys go into the break room today? No, I
haven't made it through yet. All right, look at your phone.
I want you guys to look at your phone. We'll
start with you. Katie here, the first person that can
see the picture. I just sent you, kat watch to
describe what you're looking at there. And I saw this yesterday.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
I did too. Okay, so this is day old.

Speaker 7 (11:38):
Could some bread?

Speaker 6 (11:38):
It's definitely day old. This is there yesterday. Yeah, describe
it a full loaf of bread, peacefullly be wheat bread,
some oranges of pretzel, slims and looks like some knockoff
brand of frosted flakes.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Because that's not Tony the Tiger.

Speaker 7 (11:54):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Let's be really straight about that.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
It can't be a knockoff brand because it says frosted flakes, right,
I think that would be copyright infringement.

Speaker 9 (12:03):
But what do I know?

Speaker 6 (12:04):
Yeah, but their Kellogg and that brand is Millville. Yeah,
this is a I think we have frosted flakes. It
has to be authentic. We can report them to the authorities,
I think at this point, because that is not legal.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
No, and that's then it's a polar bear of some kind.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
There's a note that says a please take Okay that
note yesterday I thought the bread looked old and whatever
those little tiny oranges are they look rough.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Okay, someone explained to me.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
You walk in your you know, your kitchen office there
where you work, there is knockoff frosted flakes. There's a
loaf of bread, there's oranges, and a note that says
please take what is happening?

Speaker 7 (12:39):
And an open bag of pretzels like it's not closed.
The flakes are the same, those have been opened.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
What does what is happening here? That's weird.

Speaker 6 (12:48):
I'm jumping a little bit to a guess here, just
in a guestimation of what could be happening here, is
you have that type of person, someone who's walking these
hallways who just cannot stand when food is wasted and
they just can't handle it.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
So they're like here it is. Yeah, but who hasn't
money used loaf of bread?

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Still? And yeah, hey, honey, take that loaf of bread
to work and see if any of your coworkers want it.
The kids haven't finished off the knockoff frosted flakes. Why
don't you see if the guys in national sales want
to take that home with them?

Speaker 2 (13:20):
How does this.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Stuff end up here and then someone encouraging their coworkers.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
To take it home with them.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
It's strange, It is so weird.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
How do we get here and we've.

Speaker 7 (13:31):
Been here how long? And this has never happened even
if the other radio places we worked, that's never happened. No,
you know what this is?

Speaker 2 (13:38):
This is a trap. Oh, this is a trap. Like this,
something is a miss. They're a miss setting someone up.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
There is a place in that there was a stake,
like a low grade steak, place like on the grill
off of the drag in Austin back in the day,
and they used to glue a penny to the ground
and when a person would bend over to pick it up,
the whole restaurant would turn on them and start calling
them a cheapsk.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
That's great, right, I like this maybe maybe maybe it's Aliens.
Who knows that is a weird deal?

Speaker 3 (14:07):
All right?

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Coming up next, it's The Hollywood Shuffle, the inside story
of a popular actor's disgusting flatulences.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
God every.

Speaker 6 (14:21):
Stay on the top in the wood shove, right, I
tell you about this disgusting fart from this celebrity Schwarzenegger.
We have some early reactions to the Superman Movie. Three good,
three bad reviews from the Superman Movie. Because what they

(14:41):
did is they partnered with Amazon Prime for Prime Day
and if you wanted to see the advanced screening before
it drops really tomorrow night Friday, you could see it
last night.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
I had no idea there was a new super But.

Speaker 6 (14:53):
The reason it's a big deal sort of is because
James Gunn is behind it. Oh yeah, he's the guy
who did Gardens of the Galaxy, and he's.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Kind of known from being fun.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
I would say, I would say that, like, when you
hear stuff like this, I'm like, man, this doesn't need
to be made. You don't need to keep making the
same things over and over. But in fairness, when they
started making those Batman movies over again, they made three
of the best superhero movies ever and it cranked money
on him.

Speaker 7 (15:17):
I would say our generation too, KT and guys, we
haven't had a good Superman movie like we never.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Let me just jump in there my story of Superman.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
My generation has had one questionable one that didn't age
well Christian three and well, the first one with Gene
Hackman as Lex Luthor was the best one. But last
night it was on the special effects are amazingly bad. Dude,
I told you, I stumbled across. I don't know if
a Superman two or three or four or nine, I
don't know what it was. And it was maybe the
worst thing I've ever seen in my life. It was

(15:45):
with Richard Richard Pryor. Yeah, I think that was Superman three, Ben,
but I'm not sure. Now, the guys, David corn sweat,
that's your guy. He's Superman. You said, who just knows?
He's been in a bunch of stuff, But I couldn't
tell you. Just know that the Superman movie is what
launched Christopher Reeve. No one knew who he was in

(16:07):
nineteen seventy eight until that drop. Same with the Henry Cavill.
You know when he was Superman.

Speaker 6 (16:11):
Okay, here's back, but let's just see eighty six percent
on Rotten to Media Rotten Tomatoes eighty six percent, and
that's over over one hundred and thirty critics there, So
that's great critics for saying eighty six not okay, here's
the hey, but James Gun gives you some crap. Absolutely

(16:32):
the good the good reviews. It will not overtax your brain,
but it will entertain you a lot. It's loads of fun.
That's from the Arizona Republic, from the Boston Globe. Superman
hasn't had this much charming personality since Christopher Reeve made
you believe a man could fly.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Not currently New York Times.

Speaker 6 (16:52):
By all of these measures, Gun's charming take on the
Superman myth succeeds. It even won over a particular superhero
weary critic. Okay, a guy who's sick of or a
girl who's sick of superhero movies.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
It's like, okay, the bad The Daily Beast.

Speaker 6 (17:09):
Would be franchise restarter that resembles a Saturday Morning cartoon
come to over stuffed Helter Skelter life.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
The Toronto Star.

Speaker 6 (17:17):
Gun is brilliant at conjuring spectacle and creating alien realms.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
What Gun is not so great?

Speaker 6 (17:23):
At is storytelling nor a chronicle.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Superman is a mess, but it's a colorful mess. There
you go up to you you can go watch it
if you want.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
I think, as far as superhero stuff goes, I like
the Superman thing because he has his powers, because he's
not of this world. I think I think wrapping it
up by saying you can go see it if you want,
it's interesting because I could have gone and seen it
if I wanted to, prior to you telling me that.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Have you guys heard about the fart that nearly shut
down Hollywood?

Speaker 5 (17:55):
Not yet?

Speaker 6 (17:56):
Is it the Schwarzenegger one where he faulted in toy
It's not that one, And it's not Will Smith and
men in Black.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
This is Brad Pitt. Oh, oh, this is the f
one fart. It's the f one fart About this? He
said that he sat down.

Speaker 6 (18:14):
You know, he's in the car, the chair of the car,
and he let what he called a diabolical fart out.
It smelled so bad. He said, I just powered down
this plate of beans. Take two, do the same thing.
Take three, I did the same thing. Take four, I
did the same thing. Something hit me. There's nothing I
can do. I was stuck in the chair and nature
took its course. Suddenly the entire crew the most diabolical.

(18:38):
Something something descended on the crew in the whole room,
and they fled the cafe. He emptied a cafe. So
this is what I just thought, though, amazing. I think
Christina is going to have to offer the best take.
I think the percentage of women who would still go
through with an act with Brad Pitt even though he

(19:00):
is stunk up the room the room to holy hell,
I think it's like ninety percent above.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
If he's doing it during the act, I think they
still go with it.

Speaker 7 (19:09):
You got to stop and laugh about it and acknowledge it.
But yes, that's not even like it. Just like he
can he can get away with anything, then he can
get away with that.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Do the Tyler Durdin.

Speaker 6 (19:22):
Okay, I've also got a new take on farts. If
there's ever a fart that happens and you're kind of
like going, okay, who did this? Look for the most
ripped guy you can find. Oh, you think protein for
the most handsome ripped guy you can find, because they
know they can get away with it in protein.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
So that's like, I think it's still the fattest guy, like,
I'm always going to be the biggest suspect in this room.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
It's and it's fair.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
Plus that shirt, and I think I think you would
assume that a Brad Pitt fart smells like cinnamon rolls.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Well, he's saying that it doesn't. He's finally admitting to it. Okay, Yeah,
that's what we've all been waiting for.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
All right, coming up in just over three minutes, it's
the way back ten years ago, this week this happened.
Don't miss it next, Ben and skin Show ninety seven
point won the Eagle. I think Ben has probably seen
this movie. I don't know how recently. I don't know
if Kati or Christina have seen it. Has any of
you guys seen the movie Looper?

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Is that Christopher Nolan?

Speaker 1 (20:17):
No, that's not a bad guess. Bruce Willis, bro Bruce Willis?
And then the guy was his name Josh Gordon Levitt?
That was in Goon Levi, Yeah, that guy. When's the
last time you saw it, Ben? Uh, it's probably been
about a year. Okay, so you've seen it recently. Twenty
twelve is the year. Yes, I don't think I had
seen it since it came out twenty twelve, so we're

(20:38):
doing thirteen years ago. I remember loving it when it
came out. It was on TV last night, so I
started it at midnight like a smart guy. Man, that
movie is incredible, and I was like, I don't even
know who made this, and I went and looked it
up and it's this guy, Ryan Johnson. And he made
the second Star Wars movie when they relaunched him. Okay,

(20:58):
so there was a Force Awakens than the next one
he made the next one. He made the Knives Out movies.
He made the Knives Out movies. Yes, man, that movie
is spectacular. That is really damn good sci fi. And
Joseph Gordon Levitt was never heard from ever again. Hey man,
they what they did is because he's playing Bruce Willis
as a younger man. They used makeup to make his

(21:20):
face look more like Bruce Willis, and I'd forgotten that
I was watching, going what happened with him? He looks
like he's got a zach Effron situation here. Anyways, Looper's
back on the cables.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Go check it out. It's a badass. But right now
it's time for this. It's time to go into the Stulebugs.
By the way, the Bear is everyone? How's everyone doing
on the Bear? Still stuck in last season? About four
episodes in season three or season four?

Speaker 9 (21:51):
Three?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah, definitely, you don't want to go into four until
you finished the Man? Have you finished at kat No?
Through five?

Speaker 1 (21:57):
We finished it last weekend and I'm gonna We're about
to start over again on season one and rewatch the
whole series.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Why don't you just watch Always Sonny in Philadelpia. Why
don't you get off these nuts?

Speaker 6 (22:09):
Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Season seventeen premiere tonight. I bet
it's getting better each year. Actually pretty awesome because they're
opening the season off with part two of their crossover
episode with Avid Elementary, which is a phenomenal show. Yep,
let's move on though. Yeah, so ten years ago will
take us to July of twenty fifteen. Does everyone remember

(22:30):
where they were? What was going on in your life?
July twenty fifteen?

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Spittle was in my ear?

Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah, we were at the fan, right, so were we?
I think he was trying to get you to do
a funny bit that he wrote for you, kt.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Christina.

Speaker 7 (22:47):
I think I was a ticket check. Are you in traffic?

Speaker 6 (22:50):
Good?

Speaker 2 (22:50):
Were also a red Bull gal. No, that was right
before before. Are you a red Bull gal? Now after
this F one news?

Speaker 9 (22:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Still hanging there, Honey, Max is fine.

Speaker 6 (23:02):
Okay, Well, this happened, and I'm just gonna play the
news story that our good friends at Inside Edition did
because Inside Edition is serious journalism to handle everything correctly.
This happened this week ten years ago, and I remember
being like what, I remember being pretty over.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
I consume too much of this story. I'm shared the
subway guy.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
He is one of TV's most beloved kitchmen, so it
was quite a shock to see this FBI and state
police rating Jared Foegel's mansion Tuesday. This is Jared leaving
a police evidence truck parked in his driveway in Scionsville, Indiana.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Here he is in a blue windbreaker. You got anything
to say?

Speaker 4 (23:42):
The FBI confirms the rate is part of an ongoing
criminal investigation.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
We jar this subway guy.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
Just this past Fourth of July weekend, Jared was Grand
Marshall at the Subway Firecracker two fifty race in Daytona, Florida.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Dude Special guests at the Race of Daytona. Yes, gentlemen,
start your engines drivers start.

Speaker 4 (24:08):
What makes the raid on Jared's home particularly disturbing is
that it comes nearly two months after the former executive
director of his nonprofit foundation was arrested on federal child
pornography charges that man Russell Taylor made an unsuccessful suicide
attempt after investigators say they found more than four hundred
child pornography videos in his home.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
This is Jared.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
This is Jared Fogel's first Subway commercial back in two thousand,
a four hundred and twenty five pound freshman at Indiana
University who embarked on the unusual diet of eating nothing
but Subway turkey and veggie subs. He lost a staggering
two hundred and thirty five pounds. Jared has been Subway
spokesman for the past fifteen years, earning an estimated fifteen

(24:54):
million dollars in the process. His commercials are still on
the air. This is his latest one, telling his life
story through animation.

Speaker 6 (25:02):
Dude Guy now has two kids and even more reason
to pass on better eating habits to young people everywhere.

Speaker 4 (25:08):
One branding expert believes Jared's Subway days maybe number.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
It's most likely Subway will choose to move on from Jared.

Speaker 6 (25:14):
Irrespective of what happens with the case, Yeah, no dumb
love inside of this, they're just perfect.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Okay, is one story.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
I know this isn't the lead, but I don't think
irrespective is a word. Don't worry about that.

Speaker 6 (25:28):
Four hundred and twenty five pounds is a freshman in
college and then he ate only subway to get down
to one ninety.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Wow, that's incredible, Like this guy know that.

Speaker 6 (25:37):
I believe it.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
It's four hundred and fifty pound freshman in Indiana. Yeah,
and he just eats at one place and he turns
it into a mansion and then blows it. Yeah, he
knows it into fifteen million dollars and then blows it.
They talk about for a lot of people the freshman fifteen.
He did the freshman four hundred.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
Right.

Speaker 6 (25:54):
It's just it's wild because when you see I mean
the story if it's true too, it feels like too
many harps with the bread. Yeah, how was he doing
that with all those cars? It feels like that's not
really what happened. And when they arretched him and they
showed him, he was looking pretty big again. So it's like, okay,
I don't know you wouldn't stick it to the diet.
But man, just such a normal guy. And how did

(26:15):
that work though? Because people started going to subway because
of it. They get worked because it was a lie.
Yeah maybe, yeah, probably?

Speaker 1 (26:22):
All right, there he is Kevin Turner with another story
about his hero, constantly telling us these shared stories. Coming
up next and TV news, a new TV show might
clear up a big celebrity death.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Don't miss it. It's next.

Speaker 6 (26:45):
It's a brand new show that is airing tomorrow night.
And I'll tell you more about it in a second.
But I wanted to play you kind of a teaser
trailer they have for their first episode that will air
tomorrow night. You have a guy giving a light detector test,
and then you have the wife, a former child actor
Gary Coleman, actually former adult actor Gary Coleman.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
There's a thin line a child. It's tough. Here you go.
These are the results on the critical questions.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
The exam had to do with Gary's fatal fault. I
asked you the following relevant questions on this test. Did
you physically cause Gary's fall? You answer now, and the
results are you failed that exam with deception indicated to

(27:41):
those relevant questions. Let me say that again, you fail
the exam regarding Gary's fault.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
What are your thoughts? There's two things I know for sure,
Shin One, you were.

Speaker 5 (27:54):
Not completely honest with me yesterday during this polygraph session.
And two, the other thing I know that's one hundred
percent certain is that there is more to this story
that hasn't been at all.

Speaker 8 (28:05):
Flight Detector truth or deception? Premierce Thursday Time, God a
need what the show is lie detector? And they just
put people in.

Speaker 6 (28:15):
And the pilot is did Gary Coleman's want pushing him
down a flight of stairs?

Speaker 2 (28:20):
That's bad?

Speaker 7 (28:21):
Is that McConaughey or is he just doing a bad round?

Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yes, okay, doing a bad one. This show, this concept
has potential.

Speaker 6 (28:29):
Yeah, although very few people would be willing to do it,
And that is illustrated by Gary Coleman's death being the
big pilot episode.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
Hey, hold on, that's their choice.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Hold on, Hold on a second, God, we got a
group of people that didn't have a lawyer, Like we're
on forty years now, Lawyers going flight detector test aren't
admissible in court.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Come on, give me, give me a break. If you're
watching A and E though you're an old person.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
So, dude, I'm watching the A and E documentary series
on James Brown right now?

Speaker 2 (28:59):
What is somebody have to gain by doing that? Like,
what does she have to gain?

Speaker 1 (29:03):
She's she has thought of as being someone who may
or may not be involved in his death, right, So
what does she have to gain by coming and taking
a light detector test on television?

Speaker 2 (29:13):
I think hopeful for some potential income.

Speaker 6 (29:15):
This was his wife of her name is Shannon Price.
And you know Gary's death, which I did not remember.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
This was weird.

Speaker 6 (29:24):
He fell down a flight of stairs, hit his head,
but I think they said he was having a seizure
at the time, didn't failed. That's what the That's what
the story's always been. But fifteen years later we need
a show on an E. Did she push him? Did
she pushed the little guy?

Speaker 2 (29:42):
I had no Okay, that would be a better show name.
Did she push them? Okay?

Speaker 1 (29:46):
I did not remember that being a whole fifteen years ago,
But I remember when Dana Plato died. She was the
sister on Facts of All or on a different stroke,
she was the stepsister. She was mister Drummond's blood daughter,
and she ate a lot of missus. Garrett Strudel, and

(30:06):
then I believe.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
Todd Bridges is still alive.

Speaker 6 (30:11):
Help me Todd Bridges. That's so Willis I would be surprised.
I think he had drug problems.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
Yeah sixty. I think he's still in there.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
In fact, I think he is on a new show
called I Knew a person that took a light detector
test that's also coming to the concept is awesome, but
you're not getting anyone to do it because what is
the upside? What is the upside for them to do it?
You'd have to pay them so much money that they
would know it's a coin flip that they may ruin

(30:41):
their future by making themselves look guilty of a murder.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Little bit of money, what a murder? I bet that.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
But to Ben's point, I bet what it is is
that they consulted their lawyer, and their lawyers like, look,
a lie detector test isn't even used in real life,
and so just go take their money and do it.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
You have nothing else going for you.

Speaker 7 (30:58):
It's based off your life like pulse right, like if
you tense up, maybe starts going.

Speaker 6 (31:04):
Faster, yeah yeah, like and which anyone's probably would if
you're straight. It does come down to do you want
this talent fee for doing this or would you rather
just go get a real job in this?

Speaker 10 (31:17):
In this.

Speaker 6 (31:19):
Trailer, Shannon Price has very little energy and appears to
just be kind of going along with it. It's false
so she's taking the talent fee, you know, like yeah,
maybe it's just like it's just very funny how she's
just like so she appears to not care.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
I'm good here, and that is what'saric. Did you notice
this trailer had a bunch of this.

Speaker 5 (31:42):
The thing I know that's one hundred percent is that
there is more to this story that hasn't been Detector.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Trooper deception.

Speaker 6 (31:54):
Man just not.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
It has potential, but it really doesn't. Is it a
criminal event that the police are putting on television?

Speaker 9 (32:01):
God?

Speaker 3 (32:01):
All right?

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Coming up, God, that was a bad tease.

Speaker 6 (32:03):
A new TV show might clear up A big celebrity deaths,
A big celebrity, not big in stature, not big in's popularity,
not in the literal sense.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
All right, coming up in just over three minutes. Why
our tickets to Cooper Flag's first Summer League game going
for so much money?

Speaker 2 (32:20):
We'll discuss next.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
Now around the sports kt tweets as all the Sports.

Speaker 6 (32:31):
Yes, we will talk about Cooper Flag in a second.
I want to get this out of the way first.
There's a new show on Netflix called Quarterbacks or Quarterback
and it's got they. Just a few years ago, it
was Kirk Cousins, Pat Mahomes, and Marcus Mariota. This year
it's Joe Burrow Jared Goff. It's Kirk Cousins again as

(32:54):
an upset Atlanta falcon guy. I haven't watched this yet,
but there's one clip that's going around and it's awesome.
Joe Burrows great Now. One of the big headlines is
coming out that he had his house broken into, much
like Luca did here and Travis Kelsey had his house
broken into. I forgot that he was in that string
of hits where these people were breaking.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Into their house.

Speaker 6 (33:13):
Knew they were out of town at the time, and
he was talking about getting a batmobile. And now he's
decided not to get a batmobile because he's like, my
house got broken into, I'm gonna stop talking about all
the things about my life.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
He wants a batmobile, but doesn't trust the public not
to steal it.

Speaker 6 (33:28):
Yeah, now he's like he's he's like he doesn't want
to talk about his personal life anymore, especially he's miked
up this all season long and he gets broken into
during that season. Like, I haven't seen this yet, but
I'm assuming he talks about that because he's talking about
being more private now that he got broken into.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
I think he probably also saw what happened Derek Collin
and decided, all right, I'm not going to buy a batmobile. Well, also,
man Russ used to have a batmobile and authentic bat
I think I would drive that thing around.

Speaker 9 (33:54):
Man.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Okay, but you know what we're talking about, invasions. Russell
So had an invasion. Yeah, there might be a string
of batmobile related and I think so.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Uh, but this is a game. It's Week thirteen. The
Bengals are beating the Titans.

Speaker 6 (34:09):
They end up beating the Titans thirty seven to twenty
seven because the Titans are terrible, but the Bengals were
not playing well and their offensive lines jumping off sides
all the time. And then the coach is gonna come over,
Zach Taylor. He was gonna come over and try to
console Joe Burrow on the bitch.

Speaker 2 (34:25):
The penalty train rolls on.

Speaker 7 (34:27):
What are we doing?

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Man?

Speaker 11 (34:29):
What the.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
Snakes of day.

Speaker 7 (34:33):
Wait to finish the day.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
That's a great drive for finishing. I know it's a frustrating,
embarrassing performance by us, embarrassing, were addressing dressed at the
same time. Let's bring we sucked today. I was embarrassing.
He jumped off eight times.

Speaker 6 (34:48):
I know that.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
I know that, you know, I understand that we were okay,
So the coach like, we should do we do enjoy
the win? He goes, f that, enjoy the win. I
love Joe Burrow very saying it's a lot like Aikman.
He's the coolest dude. And yeah, no, I just loved that.
The coach like, it's fun, it's just your and you.

(35:09):
No f that the guys jumped off sides eight times today?

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Shouldn't he have corrected him, said that they were false starts.
And Aiman does love him. It's a's favorite player. It's
a favorite player.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Ever. Yeah, that's insane.

Speaker 6 (35:21):
He's very fun, even with the boy band haircut, even
with the boy banded haircut, the batmobile.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
Yeah, the weird fashion choices that he makes, but it's okay.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
By the way, is Pat Mahomes dealing with a weight
issue right now? I've heard people are calling him fat.

Speaker 6 (35:35):
Mahomes, a Kansas City radio host, called him fat on
a podcast, and then Patrick Mahomes' trainers like, dude, he
needs to have like fifteen percent of body fat to take.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
The hits that he takes. It for the bush, that's
what you always say.

Speaker 6 (35:50):
But also it's so weird for a radio This is
why it's something very uncomfortable when anyone would talk about
Luca being out of shape.

Speaker 2 (35:56):
Yeah, and it's usually radio hosts look great.

Speaker 6 (35:58):
Well, some people would say it had way like they
would say he's fat and on that stuff, and I'm like, well,
and then well, if that's the case, we can't.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Be crying when he's gone. Is this Holmes junior or
senior that they got Patrick Patrick.

Speaker 6 (36:09):
Mahomesh this guy was was caught eating at a breakfast
place in a sitting in a booth Indian style. Well,
Chris Cross Apple sauce, I should say thank you, no, no,
the radio.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
Host guy, Oh, oh what a weird. Why did they
do some digging into his past and sound that a picture.

Speaker 6 (36:30):
I guess that he had posted at some point, But
he is sitting in a booth with his legs all folded.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
I don't know you could go to jail for that.
Go to that, and for calling Patrick Mahomes fat. Is
he a little person? He may have really short legs.
Oh he's not.

Speaker 6 (36:43):
It's the little person hour here on the Vin and
Skin Show and you say he's from India.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
No, no, no, that was good Summer league tickets.

Speaker 6 (36:51):
The cheapest Summerleague ticket you can get for tomorrow night's
game between Brownie and Cooper Flag is two hundred and
one dollars.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Yeah, it's the cheapest. Do you have the cheapest? Do
you have the prices there for front row? No, front
row is in the thousands. I'm not going no, no, no.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
I saw this.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Front row tickets for a summer League game in which
you know, maybe four to five of the overall participants
will play more than two years in the NBA are
going for thousands of dollars.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
That is the dumbest thing. So it's in Vegas, I
think so.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
I think they have a couple of locations now, but
they usually they used to play games at the Thomas
and Mack Center, which is on the campus of UNLV.
But because it's brawny, you're you're buying tickets not only
for Cooper Flag, but there's a bunch of celebrities that
go to Vegas. This is basically the Vegas Summer League
is almost like an NBA convention now, so famous people

(37:46):
are there, players, celebrities and all that. So if you're
buying one thousand dollars seats, you're buying it because you
hope you're sitting next to Kevin Hart. If I had
the money, I'd do it because I want to see
Cooper Flag. I want to I want to see him
the first chance I can get in anything close to
the NBA.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
It's a pretty big deal. Is he gonna play ten minutes?
So here's what we'll do tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
Tomorrow night is the first game, and I'll give you
guys a bunch of info about it. Okay, why don't
we get ready for we can do We don't even
have to do it in sports tomorrow, but we'll get
you ready for the game. We'll tell you where you
can watch it and give you all the details tomorrow.
All right, if you want to go to Vegas to
watch this game, could be good news for you with
regard to the TSA.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
We'll tell you what that is next. Give me that
news quickie. Yeah, you know you want it. TSA has
made an announcement.

Speaker 6 (38:33):
Christy Noham, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security,
has said that you don't need to remove your shoes
at TSA checkpoints. That's no longer in effect after about
twenty plus years.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
So that's good. Now you don't have to do that
if you have TSA PreCheck.

Speaker 6 (38:50):
If you go to a Staples or an office depot,
go to the back corner and you give them your
eighty dollars and get your TSA PreCheck for a couple
of years, you don't have to worry about that. So
I haven't messed with that in a while as a
TSA pre check guy.

Speaker 7 (39:04):
Is that really all you have to do?

Speaker 2 (39:06):
It's very strange.

Speaker 7 (39:07):
Okay, you have to go I don't have pre check.

Speaker 5 (39:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
What you do is you go, you get a little
picture or whatever, and then you get registered and then
they get back to you fill some stuff out, they
do a background check on you.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
And it's just weird that where the place you have
to go.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Yeah, man, and that is another place like the office
supply store that used to be a place I would
love to go.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
You love those you're worried.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
I love those places and dude, you go in there,
you might be the only person to go in there
the whole day. And you got to go to a
back corner and get a tsa pic ticking. It's like
going to Viikon Village for a fake ID or something
in Amazon.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Great, it's so quiet. It's so quiet in those stores, and.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Dude, it it is crazy because you could go to Amazon.
He're like, oh, I need some some sticky notes and
some white out and some pins, and they're there within
an hour or two.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
You're like, oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Sometimes we'll order a yellow highlighters and our doorbell will
range as soon as we et sent. But I used
to love those places. But yeah, I don't have the
pre check in either, like Christina, and so the shoe
part has always been my least favorite part. And I
don't mind any any of it. But they also I

(40:14):
think heat generation if you have heat in your crotch,
heat crotch can cause a lot of backhanded double checking
with them rubbing with the back of their hand.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
And I don't know if you guys don't.

Speaker 7 (40:25):
Deal with that.

Speaker 6 (40:26):
On the other side, I know that my problem is
my belt goes off though every time. Yeah, and they
tell you know, you don't have to take your belt off,
uh huh, and then it goes off.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
I'm like, damn it, So I gotta take my belt off.

Speaker 6 (40:38):
And I've been kind of I'm on my last days
on the belt that I currently have, and you guys
are gonna make fun good like you No, I gotta know,
well yeah that too, actually, but it's worn down and
I just don't have it had the urge to go
to a mall belt.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
You need to go to it. It's gonna be like
the damn by the time I had a lawn chair
in my living room. Let's see it. You'll take his
pants off. Oh my god, Oh no, that belt is
My blood is flowing right now. Oh my god, I
can't see it.

Speaker 1 (41:15):
Kevin, Okay, So what he's showing us right now is God,
he has a leather belt that is so worn that
the fake leather on top has peeled away off from
the the meaty part of the belt. So there's just
like a flopping, fake flap of pleather.

Speaker 6 (41:32):
So when you have to take that off in front
of people, it's a little embarrassing. When do you take
it off in front of people? This morning, jury dudey
more on that. Oh you had to take your belt
off in front of the judge because I go through
and there it goes off again, and I'm like, why
is it going I don't understand the best part of
the TSA thing, besides not taking off your shoes and
your belt and all that, is not going through the
X ray machine, yes, and not having to stand in

(41:55):
that line.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
And you know I do.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
There's probably a tipping point there where it's like, all right,
do I travel enough for it to make sense? But
I got my TSA pre check in twenty twelve, and
just re renewing it every five or six years is simple.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
You just hit send.

Speaker 4 (42:11):
Man.

Speaker 6 (42:12):
You have more.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
TSA issues than anyone I've ever known. I don't travel
with a lot of people either, but you've seen it
a couple of times. There are awkward moments with you
at at TSA. Some of them are very humorous, some
of them are instructional for them. But there are interesting
moments with you at TSA. So I imagine having this

(42:33):
check just clears that up some Yeah. I mean I
guess you always had that.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
Well I did it.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
I could probably look on my phone, but I think
I did it in twenty twelve. We did it before
we went to Turks and Caicos.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
You just walked through. It's pretty easy. You just walked through.

Speaker 6 (42:46):
Well, I have noticed over the last couple of years
and now they have monitors that show you regular line
and tsa line. Rigord always like when you're on the
highway like six thirty five, twelve minutes to six thirty
five or whatever, twelve minutes to eight twenty, Like twelve
minutes here and eight minutes. I'm like, wait, it's faster
in the normal line today. Yeah, because more people would
got to pre checked. But that's it. It's like been

(43:06):
like that twice. Yeah, it's usually pretty pretty It's a
time saving mechanism. Do you have to show up to
the airport early anymore? Either, like real early?

Speaker 1 (43:14):
I do feel like post pandemic traveling.

Speaker 6 (43:17):
Now.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
I'm not. I haven't traveled on Fourth of July or
Thanksgiving Day or one of those crazy days, but I
do feel like post pandemic traveling.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
The lines just aren't what they were. It used to be.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
There was a ton of it and it was bustling,
and hey, my god, got to get there ninety minutes
in advance and now I haven't had a wait at
an airport, and I don't know when except for like
a canceled flight situation canceled or.

Speaker 7 (43:42):
Delayed, right, Yeah, I actually I traveled on it was
either Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. I was expecting it
to be packed, not one person there.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
Yeah, isn't it weird to think that you used to
just be able to walk around in an airport without
even being on a flight.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
That's yeah, what's crazy.

Speaker 6 (43:55):
And this shoe thing is a two thousand and one
a passenger tried to conceal a bomb in his shoe.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Remember he lit it while he was sitting there. I
mean I can still envision that guy's face three months
after nine eleven. Yeah, it was right after nine to eleven,
and he had like a match and there was like
something that he had put in the I mean I
can golly, I can remember that dude's face.

Speaker 6 (44:16):
And they didn't get the shoe thing. You had to
wear shoes until two thousand and six. It took him
five years to implement that.

Speaker 7 (44:21):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
And then remember that guy through a pair of shoes
at George W. Bush. Yeah, that was crazy too.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
That's that's apparently a tradition of disrespect in the Middle East.
He was a reporter from a rock if I remember correctly. Huh,
are you guys fans of cinnamon toast Crunch?

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Yes? Hell yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
I wouldn't say I'm an active fan, but I enjoyed
every time I have it.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
I don't eat a lot of cereal, but you know,
in my in my prime, at my fattest, I would
love a nice, a nice giant bowl of cereal.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
I'm with you, Doug, and there's no way that much
of it is good for you.

Speaker 1 (44:53):
But I did see that Cinnamon toast Crunch is announcing
a new bacon flavored okay cereal good for me. Bacon
flavored cinnamon toast Crunch is a cereal that will be available.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
That's great home on Arnie.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
Hopefully someone will buy some and put them in the
kitchen in there and just say please take yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
All right.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
Coming up here momentarily in the weekly weekday Update, the
impact of last night's storm on a big time artist
and true crime turner is unleashed in the big finish.
That's all coming your way in the back half of
the five o'clock hour. But right now it's time for this.

Speaker 6 (45:37):
Well, we're gonna talk about and this is actually gonna
take more than that one segment here, because there is
an indie psych rock band called The Velvet Sundown.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
Sounds nice.

Speaker 6 (45:49):
They gained nearly a million followers on Spotify and a
matter of weeks, but the problem is that nobody's exactly
sure whether it's a real band or not. What So
the image is put forward by the band look like
they were created by AI and the music is hard
to decipher as well. Here's a something they posted on
Twitter though, because they've got an album coming out on
the fourteenth.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
You guys heard their music, Yeah, I had a couple
song type of music is it? It's kind of psych
indeed throwback. We'll let you decide. Yeah, let me pull
something up for you, because I think to me it's
it is. It is kind of hard to tell.

Speaker 6 (46:24):
Here's here's one called dust on the Wind, and there's
gonna be an ad of course.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
Hold on one second, here we go, we're gonna play it.
I'm gonna play it now. I'm gonna fast forward ahead though, wait,
dust on the Wind, in the Wind, the Smoking Sky.
The finalist was run Red. Okay, go on, tell me brother,

(46:58):
where do we go raise your hand? Fast forward a
little more? Ash is far? You see?

Speaker 6 (47:07):
But here's today Rose. They got an album coming out
next week? Right, haven't they already put out six albums?
I believe slat n.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
I didn't see that.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
I think they've had six different releases on Spotify already.

Speaker 7 (47:18):
How long have they been around about abount.

Speaker 2 (47:19):
And a half or something?

Speaker 9 (47:20):
No?

Speaker 8 (47:21):
Way?

Speaker 2 (47:21):
Yeah, that that would be strange. And then you also
be like, have you guess played live shows? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (47:27):
But I know that they put a little teaser out
because they're getting a lot of criticism or questions about it.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Man, is this a real band or not? So this
is what they put out online?

Speaker 11 (47:40):
Are you sure we're not real? Or did you just
stream the dream again? You believe the lie and dance
to it anyway? The Paper Sun Rebellion fourteenth July.

Speaker 2 (47:59):
Now, skin I have on Spotify, I have two albums
from them.

Speaker 1 (48:02):
Okay, two albums in six weeks. So they released their third.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Yeah, okay, which that's pretty confusing, right yep?

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Okay, because it takes Ai five minutes to make an album.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (48:14):
The band's bio on Spotify claims that the group is
composed of four people you have your singer Gabe Farrow
FA r R O W Okay, nothing suspicious there.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
Your guitarist is Lenny West. These are the fakest names
of Lenny we.

Speaker 1 (48:31):
Like and just so you know so well, like the
sound they're going for and what they've created, I can
tell you exactly what AI went to go find. Like,
the guy's name is Lenny West. Well, the guitarist for
Mountain was Leslie West. If you go listen to a
Mountain record, it sounds very similar to this.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
The keyboard player is Milo Reins. I don't have one
for that. This is straight out of a book.

Speaker 6 (48:54):
Do you have anything for the percussionist O'Ryan del mar
but they call him Rio.

Speaker 2 (49:00):
Of course, got a nickname one arm too.

Speaker 6 (49:03):
Here's what they're Spotify bio says, there's something quietly spellbinding
about the Velvet Sundown. You don't just listen to them,
You drift into them. Their music doesn't shot for your attention.
It seeps in slowly, like a scent that suddenly takes
you back somewhere you didn't expect. So even that was
a AI generator that reads like our podcast segment restrictions.
If you go look at those yeah. I mean it's like, okay,

(49:26):
clearly Katy did not write. That's telling you right. Questions
about the band's origins have been complicated a little bit more,
and we will explain that next because something has happened
and it involves the Rolling Stone.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
Who wait and all right, that's coming up next. Can't wait,
Don't go anywhere, Ben and Skin Show ninety seven point one.
The Eagle shout out to Andrews American Pizza Kitchen. That
is who is sponsoring this segment right here. Some of
the best pizza in the df dub and there's tons
of great pizza, tons of great pizza. And last year
Dallas Morning News readers said Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen.

Speaker 6 (50:05):
Was the best.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
Why five different styles and they've mastered all five of them.
They have great pasta dishes, an incredible bar. You're gonna
love everything about it. I try to get a different style.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Each time I go. They give you tons so you
can take it home. It's excellent. When you reheat it,
you're gonna love it.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Right there in Plano at Preston and Plano Parkway, it
is an institution. It's Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen. All right,
we're halfway through the story of a great musical mystery
and with more here's Kat.

Speaker 6 (50:33):
Yeah, we told you about this band who'd got over
a million followers on Spotify within the last couple months,
and they're called the Velvet Sundown.

Speaker 2 (50:41):
We just told you that their band.

Speaker 6 (50:43):
Other members of the band played you a little bit
what they're doing, but questions about their origins like this,
When we have that many followers all at once, it's
almost like when betting action happens, all of what it
gets attention. Yeah, okay, what the hell is this? And
so well is this is abnormal activity here? I've got
a lot of followers and this long they've only put
out two albums.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
And you guys should know that Spotify puts out tens
of thousands of songs every day.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (51:11):
In fact, there's a they couldn't measure it in this
article with Spotify, But there's a company called Deezer, which
is the music streaming app. Yeah, and they say they
get one hundred and eighty thousand songs a week. One
hundred and eighty thousand songs a week, and about twenty
percent of them are AI. Oh my god, I would
have thought more well, and dude, that music you played

(51:34):
from these first of all, the band name, the member's name.
It flirts with something that is real, but it's clearly
something about it as fake. Yeah, and even listening to
the music, but it's close, yeah, being good, something you
would listen to.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
It's like, wait, what that just slightly off? I think
you're exactly right.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
And I think that's the fear of AI is that
it's It's so if you're really knowledgeable, you immediately know
it's AI because you're like, nobody would be this derivative
of something like there's no way like remember, who's the
band that sounded like led Zeppelin?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Greta Greta man Fleet. Like even they, even though.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
They were super derivative of led Zeppelin, did enough to
try to give themselves their own personality. This is AI
going out there, scout. They have a song called dust
on the Wind, Right. AI is not smart enough to
know that someone who actually likes his musical to go what.

Speaker 6 (52:25):
Yeah, it's so crazy. So they get contacted. Well, someone
actually contacted the Rolling Stone and he claimed to be
connected to the band.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
It's going to be the AI creator the game created
the band, Yes, and he is basically said that it's
an art hoax. What's that? Oh it's banksy. Yeah, they're
making fun of it. All this is this is not
what's happened.

Speaker 1 (52:49):
This is called pr This is like, oh my god,
my AI creation now, because there's if you guys go
on your Instagram or whatever, there's like, do you want
to be an AI creator? You can have a million
followers in five follow my thing, and there's tons of
AI creators. So the guy who created this, it's exploded.
So now it's like Millie Vanilly, how do I figure
out a way to make this real?

Speaker 6 (53:09):
Then he claim though, and this is uh. The social
media accounts tied to the band's Spotify account posted that
someone's trying to hijack the identity of the Velvet Sundown
by releasing unauthorized interviews, publishing unrelated photos, and creating fake
profiles claiming to represent us. So this guy is just
working multiple angles here.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
It's like Blair Witch project. That is so crazy. How
could you keep your craft in order? Because of your line?

Speaker 1 (53:35):
I think, I think like the way I perceive this,
and it's a it's a it's a really interesting story
because it's something that you can't control. It's like, you
did this thing and now it's exploding, and now you're
trying to figure out how to harness it.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
Harness it.

Speaker 1 (53:50):
Like a lot of times someone will say, oh, that
was my master plan because of the way things unfolded,
and in hindsight you can kind of connect the dots.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
That's your vision that.

Speaker 1 (53:58):
This guy did, right, this guy did an AI creation.
And here's the other thing that's really upsetting. It is
so difficult to break through on Spotify. But the guy
that created Spotify is now investing all the money he
made off of Spotify into military AI.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (54:15):
Right, and so now it's just AI feeding AI. If
you go on to Pinterest and start looking. I saw
a report. John Oliver did a thing about this. The
majority of the things you're seeing on Pinterest dream homes,
they're AI creating slop. So yeah, that's what it's called
AI slop. And so everything that you're consuming now about
a third of it is AI and you don't.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Even know it.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
What is this stuff called where you eat into a
microphone and this sounds like there's yeah ASMR there's people
that are totally into that. Uh, those videos are highly popular. Well,
now they're being created by AI.

Speaker 6 (54:48):
Oh my god. And so it's like like a crystal
apple that sounds like a real apple, but it's like
looks like it's crystal glassware. Uh huh, and all the
sounds of people like it's that type of stuff now
is everywhere.

Speaker 7 (55:02):
So didn't they try to stop AI from getting into
the art and music world, Like what happened to that?
I remember them going to court?

Speaker 6 (55:09):
Yeah, yeah, go ahead. Well I'm saying, deezer, it's the
streaming up. I don't have it, but it's from They
now flag if it's a aim. They basically came to
an agreement with these some of these AI companies. Souno
is a very popular AI music creating company. Yeah, and
they'll just flag it like this is AI and it
shows you what's real because you know, Souno's like you
can still have things.

Speaker 2 (55:29):
They're created by AI that you enjoy.

Speaker 6 (55:31):
And you know, it's clashing with the music industry quite
a bit, but in some ways it's fair point, you know,
what we need to move on.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
I would like to get into this tomorrow because one
of the things that AI can easily replicate is stuff
that's not real. Art that's just commerce, and that's what
a big part of entertainment is a big part of entertainment.
We talk about all these Marvel movies and all this stuff.
That's easy to replicate because the formula is so simple.

Speaker 2 (55:59):
We'll get in all that time. All right.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
Coming up next in the weekly Weekday Update, the impact
of last night's storm on a big time artist. We'll
get into that next. We are raising money for the
Kirk County flood Relief Fund. Just go to Community Foundation
dot net. You can make a donation there. iHeart has
vetted that website iHeart and we believe in it. We
think that it's going to go to a great cause
and go to the right place. You can feel safe

(56:23):
about that donation. So if what's going on in Kirk
County has touched your heart and you'd like to find
a way to give to give back to help that community,
please go to community Foundation dot net.

Speaker 2 (56:35):
But right now it's time for this.

Speaker 8 (56:37):
And now it's time for Basis Sweet Day Update featuring
veteran news anchor kt Funtweets.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
Here are the important stories he's currently tracking from around
the world. We had a lot of rain up here.

Speaker 6 (56:51):
In a short last night kind of throughout the Metroplex
scattered a little bit. It canceled a show. We'll postpone
the show because pop star Kesha was supposed to be
at do Seki's pavilion last night.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
This interests me because I didn't know that she was
still putting out music. I still think of her as
being huge when Ben you and I were working at ESPN,
And the reason I always know that is because Freedo,
our producer at the time Rest in Peace, had a
niece that knew the words to every Kesha song. So
I immediately think of that time period I didn't even

(57:24):
know she was still putting out music, and the fact
that she could fill up dose Eki's as impressive.

Speaker 6 (57:29):
I think a lot of people were just there to
see the Scissor sisters who are opening up for her.

Speaker 7 (57:32):
Hey, I would have been there if I would have
known about this.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
Do you like Kesha?

Speaker 9 (57:39):
Uh? Yeah.

Speaker 7 (57:40):
I didn't know about her new stuff, but I loved
her back.

Speaker 2 (57:42):
In the day. So what is her style?

Speaker 11 (57:45):
Do you like?

Speaker 2 (57:45):
What is it you like about it?

Speaker 7 (57:46):
Oh yeah, talk on the clock, make it hot, funny,
kind of like a summary up feeling.

Speaker 6 (57:54):
It didn't just fun, It's going down, didn't she do
the song with Pitt Bull too, Timber.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
Yeah, it's going down?

Speaker 3 (58:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (58:01):
Is that what it's called? Yep, I didn't see it.
I did see a thing. You guys know who him is.

Speaker 11 (58:06):
Right.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
They were all really good high school friends and you
know they're kind of like, I don't want to say,
they're not pop stars. They have their own sound. It's yeah,
you all that. They've Taylor Swift. Yeah, my nephew used
them to do music in one of his films. But anyways,
they were talking about when that first song, that TikTok song,

(58:29):
Kasha like didn't like it, and the girls in him
were like, you're about to be a huge pop star, Like,
you don't understand how big this is.

Speaker 3 (58:35):
Going to be.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
And then she just exploded.

Speaker 10 (58:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
So the song It's going Down? Is that a reference
to hey man, it's going down tonight? Or is that
the idea where it was once standing and then it's
brought down.

Speaker 6 (58:51):
You're talking about the song Timber it was, and which
the lyrics are It's going down and I'm yelling Timber.

Speaker 2 (58:57):
Right, So you're making it go down.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
With your actions and then it's in a less aggressive state,
not fully standing.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
Is this this is the one.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
What'd you say hand on the back of the I
can't remember she's saying. She's proudly saying, I I released
it of its kind of milkshake by right.

Speaker 2 (59:21):
I don't know. Maybe we should investigate deeper with pit bulls.

Speaker 6 (59:24):
First verse. Okay, don't fade the music down, Yeah, fade
it down, guys.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Let's move on to the next stoor. Come on, I
don't know these The Metroplex wants the lyrics. The Eagle
audience wants to know the lyrics.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
They're all leaning in. They were writing Don Davis about
it for years.

Speaker 2 (59:42):
Got this in my email the other day. Guys, this
is you're moving on. Give us what we want. We
were having pit bull lyrics. We're having fun here. No
dumb dog.

Speaker 10 (59:54):
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Okay, this
biggoty boy is a diggity dog. That's a good lyric.
I have them like Miley Cyrus clothes off, twerking in
their brawls and thongs, Pas down, booty up. That's the
way we like the what Okay, but hold on, I'm

(01:00:16):
also lyric. Again's mom's favorite artist. I got a picture
of her and Pitbull I'm slicker than an oil spiel.
Oh she says she won't, but I bet she will.
She will, Okay, Pitbull, Pitbull's dope. Thank you for that,
Thank you for that. You didn't want to go there,
but you did. I love you, PV. So yeah, I

(01:00:37):
think that's what that song is about. Yeah, you know,
acting a statue and bringing it down.

Speaker 6 (01:00:43):
Yep, it's possible, you know, but I like to overthink this,
you know, Esscually, I truly don't know. Okay, there's a
place out in Mineraluelles. Shout out to Mineruell's out there,
good people. Minelles is in the Metroplex listing area, but
a little a little bit out west. There's a place
called the Yellow Barcoled Woodies. Hell yeah, and they put

(01:01:04):
an application out there, and I actually thought this is good.
Our buddy, uh Andrew Texas Carter sent this over to me.
What he says, accepting applications. If your feelings get easily hurt,
this is not the job posting for you. Availability needed
Thursday through Sunday. No IF's hands or butts. If this
is an off season for your little activities, this sounds
good for now. Reconsider applying. You must have adequate childcare

(01:01:27):
or a vehicle or a cell phone.

Speaker 2 (01:01:28):
Okay, that's good.

Speaker 6 (01:01:28):
Yeah, must be capable of working as a team, that's good.
Drama seeking individuals need not apply drama alone inside or
outside of work. Allows the notion of being terminated. Must
be able to count change back to the customer. Yes,
you should need to do that. Yeah, we don't wear
sweats to work. This position does not end when you

(01:01:51):
clock out. We are family. We help each other at
any given chance.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (01:01:56):
Ambition is a huge plus. This is a job, not
a hobby. Having a job must not be on the
bottom of your priority list. If you plan on asking
off more than my three plus year veteran employees, do
not apply.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
Oh my, what is this for?

Speaker 7 (01:02:14):
For a part time?

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
Full time?

Speaker 9 (01:02:15):
Ky?

Speaker 6 (01:02:15):
We're being a bartender over at Woodies Bar and Drill,
all right. I just like that they're being upfront about that.
Some places they just take the normal language and they
tell you, oh, I know, that was a part of
the job. Tell me what the job is, don't. You're
not allowed to ask off more than the people who've
been working here for more than three years. It's marriage system, bro, Absolutely,

(01:02:36):
it is it used to be, and then they just
gave dak Romo's job.

Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
I'm willing to bet Woodies doesn't have an HR department. No,
I've been to Woodies. They absolutely don't and I appreciate
that about that. Yeah, the hell of a morning show too.
Thank you, Kevin.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
Appreciate your work there, especially the pitbull stuff. All right,
coming up next, it's True Crime Turner Kat. Where you
gonna take us with this? I had to go to
court this morning. Yep, we'll discuss that next. Ben and
Skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle don't forget.
We are going to be at chock Taw Casino and
Resort and Durant, Oklahoma, and we are going to be

(01:03:14):

It's time for true crime kt Kevin watching road Day.

Speaker 6 (01:04:01):
I have to thank Gabe Pharaoh, the lead singer of
the Velvet Sundown, for voicing that oping we will not
be able to generate money on YouTube from that, so
real quick, you guys have well says I had to
go to jury duty this morning? What for the second
time in my life? Have you all done jury duty
multiple times? I would imagine just once for me once?

Speaker 9 (01:04:24):
How was it?

Speaker 7 (01:04:25):
I showed up, sat around for a long time, and
then just got to go home. Okay, once for me,
just once and I didn't have to stay. I don't
know it went from me after all these years, just once.
I've done it twice and never got picked.

Speaker 2 (01:04:39):
How did I get it?

Speaker 11 (01:04:40):
But it was?

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
You go in and you're like, man, I need to
say something that gets me booted out of here. Immediately
you're like, I don't want to do this, this sucks.

Speaker 6 (01:04:47):
I don't want but I don't want to get arrested
or something, and then by the time you get into it,
you're like, hey, pick me, man, I think I need
to be a part of this.

Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
I'm investing this. Pick me, I want to be a
part of this. And then they don't. You're kind of
let Did they take you from the main herd into
another room?

Speaker 11 (01:05:03):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
I never made it past the first herd. Okay, because
it's all in one room. I've never made it past
the first herd.

Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Okay.

Speaker 11 (01:05:09):
No.

Speaker 5 (01:05:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:05:10):
So a couple of years ago and I was doing
the mornings on the Freak at the time, I had
jury duty, which I was like, okay, well I'm going
to come in and do the first hour and then
I've got to leave to go down there.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
She had to be down there by eight. Is this
a county thing or a city thing?

Speaker 4 (01:05:23):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
County, I believe. Are you in Dallas County County? Okay?
I me living Richardson, Dallas County.

Speaker 6 (01:05:28):
Yeah. So I went walk you know, parking the Parker Gage,
walk in and there's a guy at the door saying,
if you're here for jury duty, we don't need it today.

Speaker 2 (01:05:38):
Thank you. That's it. That's what happened today. No, it's
what happened two years ago.

Speaker 7 (01:05:42):
Oh okkay, we go a lot of time to fill
for that.

Speaker 6 (01:05:46):
No, I was doing the morning so like I was
like great because I was worried about you know, it
was a weird time, you know, I was worried about everything.
So like I left the show at seven fifteen to
drive down there, and I was back by nine.

Speaker 2 (01:05:59):
Wow. It was great. So in my head, I'm like,
this is how it's gonna be. I'm just gonna get
there and they get to me.

Speaker 9 (01:06:04):
So I go.

Speaker 2 (01:06:06):
Walk in. You go through the thing.

Speaker 6 (01:06:08):
Oh crap, I'm going through the security thing now. And
then you go into the room with five hundred people
or so left middle right section, and they start one
at a time. First of all, they give you in there,
not really. First of all, they give you your summons,
you know, the card. And then the first announcement that
they have is if you didn't bring your summons card,

(01:06:30):
then come up here and get in line. And I'm like,
they're already to lay in us because that's in the
on the instructions to bring this card.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Ye, and there's like a hundred people who didn't bring
the card. Try says to bring it. You bring it
you're I'll wait. Oh my god, it just waste of
my time. Is they're getting processed because they didn't bring
the card. It says to bring it. What It's hard
to hang on all your cards.

Speaker 5 (01:06:53):
Though.

Speaker 6 (01:06:54):
They do the thing where they say, okay, now we're
going to begin orientation, and orientation is not a word
you want to hear when you're thinking you're not going
to be there long. Orientation sets the tone of get
ready for a long process.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Yeah, we need to prepare you. You'll be quizzed at
the end of each block to show you where the
bathrooms are. There's a vending machine snacks.

Speaker 6 (01:07:14):
If you've got to take a call, step out there,
and also if you have to stay longer, you know,
if you're here longer than you know. Four p thirty
and I stopped. I was like, oh no, yeah, I
need to let everyone know I'm not gonna be on
the show today. I guess. So I'm thinking, oh crap,
they really need a jury. Okay, they're going to go

(01:07:37):
through here.

Speaker 7 (01:07:38):
Where did you sit again?

Speaker 6 (01:07:39):
I was in the middle middle back that middle back, okay,
left right, middle next time, middle front, okay, next time,
middle front left.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Because you know you're in the back. I'm gonna fall asleep.
He has no me.

Speaker 6 (01:07:51):
They go, we're going to do the middle A section first,
and I'm like, and what I could have done is
probably got up and walked further up first three four,
five rows and they start processing you through and they
get like row ten, I'm probably sitting row fifteen, Row ten,
got them up and start sending them through. By the
way they've made it also go under oath, you know,

(01:08:13):
and you know, you admit to things that and they
make you say I do or I will And I
didn't really do that, but stood up and did it.
It's on video, I guess to make sure there's no
one had their hand down. I don't know what that's about.
So then the people go through and then they go,
you guys got lucky. You don't have to we don't

(01:08:34):
need any more jurors today. Thank you all for being here.

Speaker 2 (01:08:37):
And they sent me home. Oh now, just the middle section,
what about the people?

Speaker 6 (01:08:40):
Everyone else? Everyone else in the room. So they took
the first two Yeah, you're right, middle back because middle
front had.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
To go into the other room.

Speaker 7 (01:08:48):
That's exactly where I sat.

Speaker 2 (01:08:49):
But I think they got let go to and I
will tell you why.

Speaker 6 (01:08:53):
On my card, mother summons card, it was for the
Honorable Judge Amber Givens. So as I'm walking out of
the courthouse to the parking garage, a guy who looked
like pro golfer will Zalatorus and might have been him
because he got into Alexis too.

Speaker 2 (01:09:10):
He goes, hey, man, you know why they let us out?

Speaker 10 (01:09:11):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
He's starting small talk with a stranger walking out down
the stairs. I'm three steps in front of him. I think,
I'm thinking he knows who I am. Definitely knows, I think,
and I go, no, man, what's the deal. He goes
the judge got in trouble? What And I said, what
do you mean he has? Were you there for Ambergiven?

(01:09:35):
Amber Givens? Is that the judge on your summons? And
I was like, yeah, actually it was I've seen that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
He goes, yeh. He goes, go look it up. She
had in trouble. That's why they don't need a jury today.
So I get home and get.

Speaker 6 (01:09:50):
Dallas County Judge Amber Givens was sanctioned by the state's
judicial authority for jailing a man and revoking another man's
bond despite being recused from their cases.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
Oh, Amber gives them? What is she doing?

Speaker 6 (01:10:04):
The state said Givens lack the authority to intervene in
both cases. This is the second sanction against her, because
she was reprimanded earlier in the year for ordering her
court coordinator to impersonate her during an online hearing. Oh
my god, I just want to say, Ambergibbons, thank God
for you. You are my hero today because I would

(01:10:26):
still be in court right now. And I am really
jazzed that she did these illegal things. She's my favorite
judge in the city. I'm ready to do anything for
Amber Gibbons. She got me out of jury duty.

Speaker 2 (01:10:39):
Ain't you go on with my life now?

Speaker 1 (01:10:41):
It's incredible, dude, I was gonna have to sit there
until four point thirty pm.

Speaker 7 (01:10:46):
She may want you to impersonate her in another hearing, apparently,
what is that?

Speaker 1 (01:10:49):
What's the future of that case? You know what I'm saying.
I mean, the case doesn't just go away.

Speaker 3 (01:10:53):
Well.

Speaker 6 (01:10:54):
Her lawyer, mister unlimited Russell Wilson, she said that she
disagrees with the commission's conclusions. And it's called this a
politically motivated attack, and I agree. They're just trying to
shut down Ambergivens. And I've seen this many times, powerful
female African American judge. They're trying to they're trying to

(01:11:17):
shut them up. No, no, no, I stand with Ambergivens,
no matter what she might have done wrong, because I
am not in court right now.

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
They're gonna keep me there all night for all I know.
I think you might want to not stand with her
without knowing more. I know enough, and you sound like
Randy Travis there where you're like, no, no, no, I
haven't mad, and I'm proud of it.

Speaker 7 (01:11:41):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):
I really think we're entering a new era where any
person with any position of authority thinks they can.

Speaker 6 (01:11:47):
Do it like the old.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
Yeah, the old.

Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
Hey, here's how our structures work, and here's the accountability.
I think everyone's blowing through all that so fast and
just racing wherever they want to go.

Speaker 7 (01:11:57):
It's not even authority though, it's just any person anywhere
thinks they can do whatever the hell they want.

Speaker 2 (01:12:01):
True.

Speaker 6 (01:12:02):
Yeah, because MRCA man, right, I'm about to start taking
that and making that more of my deal. Yeah, you
should make it more of your deal. You will fit
in better, and only I'm gonna knock on my neighbor's
door and walk in and say I believe this is
my diet coke and walk out. You will get shot,
I hope. So wait why because then that is a

(01:12:25):
story that would cause a big ratings increase on this show.
I know, but you'll be dead and we'll have I mean,
did you guys take the iHeart self assessment yet?

Speaker 4 (01:12:34):
Not yet?

Speaker 2 (01:12:34):
We have more training to do.

Speaker 6 (01:12:36):
It's not training though. You basically have to tell them
how great you are. It's your highest on all of mine.
It just came out today yesterday. But I think the
idea is how to make you a better employee. Okay,
they give you the tools, yeah, yeah, yeah. They ask
all these questions are you doing this? And then there's
like very well, well, average, not so well, terribly, just

(01:12:58):
put very well on all of them.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
That's what I did and submitted.

Speaker 7 (01:13:01):
It is anyone gonna put terribly like I'm doing a
terrible job.

Speaker 2 (01:13:04):
It'd be a good bit and we should find out.

Speaker 7 (01:13:06):
But I'm not doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
I think Ao would be honest with his assessment of himself.

Speaker 6 (01:13:11):
All of them was like, yeah, that one's probably not
doing as well as I could, but I'm gonna go
ahead put the highest on all of them.

Speaker 1 (01:13:16):
I used to be better at this, slipped a little?
What makes this pop quiz in faster? If I just
answer A on all of them and just hit submit,
we're good. I would think that now AI can just
take those things for.

Speaker 7 (01:13:28):
You, right, Yeah, they know me well enough.

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
Yeah right, they just going and look you up.

Speaker 1 (01:13:32):
Well, congratulations, KT. I'm glad you're here for this. Shout
out to our listener of the day, Ambergibbings. I think
I saw her at BFD probably. Uh, that's gonna do
it for us though. We will be back tomorrow on Thursday. Then,
of course we're gonna be at the Chalk Talkcasino and
Resort and Durant, Oklahoma on Friday from three to six.
Make plans to join us. I'll never forget the time

(01:13:55):
KT walked into the courthouse. He looked the judge dead
in his her eye. He dropped his pants and he said,
he burned my tongue on a Texas twinkie and it
got him out of jury duty. Christine is going to
stick around and play music right here on the Eagle.

Speaker 2 (01:14:09):
Here're you going?

Speaker 3 (01:14:10):
Well, I'm gonna get my sack back, dude

Speaker 2 (01:14:12):
God bless Jesus
