Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
See number one talk show in the Ohio Valley. This
is the bloom Daddy Experience. Your host bloom Daddy. His
goal inform, entertain, and tick people off. The bloom Daddy
Experience on news radio eleven seventy WWVA starts now, Good.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Morning, Good Friday morning. You're listening to the bloom Daddy Experience.
Sam and otis News Radio eleven seventy WWVA. Wow, what
a storm last night. It was? Uh it was it
was like one moment it was a typical summer evening,

(00:44):
the sun was shining and then bam it came, bam.
It was.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
So I just got my jeep in November. So some
of the summarizing what you like you winter eye well.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Nuts with the jeep, you summarize, Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
So one of the things that I didn't do is
I didn't pull the drain plugs.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Which for those that don't have a jeep, what does
that mean?

Speaker 3 (01:10):
That means like, if you get water on the inside
of your jeep on the floor, it trips out, it'll
drain out. So I was doing my typical Thursday night
routine and like I was sitting there and the one
kid came in and he goes man, it's thunder and
he goes, it's gonna pour down rain here any minute.

(01:31):
And I was like, well, all right, I'll go out
and put my top up. So I put my top up.
When I went out at like hmm eight thirty ish,
nine o'clockish, on the driver's side, there were six inches
of water on the floor. I mean it was just
to the top where it like, so it probably overflowed.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Imagine if it was straight down without.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
The top, and then if then on the passenger side
there's probably about four inches of water. So I got
those drained out. I hop to shop back the back
because I can't find the drains for the act yet.
It was dark, you know what I mean, so I
couldn't see it. So I have to either opt to
do it today or but anyway, no top will come
off it or dry.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Out for well, and so will the waters that we
uh that are currently receding. There was I don't want
to say minimal, but there was there was some flooding,
flooding you know National Road down by TJ's the New Sheets.
I don't know if the New Sheets got hit or not,
because they literally just opened what Wednesday or Thursday, yesterday, Yeah, yesterday,

(02:30):
then you know, the.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
Remodel maybe Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Starting to blood together because while I was trying.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
To think, I went out and met with them on
Monday because I had to take pictures of the new
the new set up. And then I think the sign
out there said two days until opening, so I think
they opened on Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
I think the the Elmgrove area got hit pretty pretty
hit again.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I don't know if they're you know, I don't know.
I don't think it was doing the ex dent of
last week. But you know what they don't that's the
last thing they needed.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Oh absolutely, That's what I When I started receiving pictures
and videos and things seeing on social media, I just
kept thinking, please for for the tried Alvia, for Valley Grove,
for all those folks, Please don't let this happen again.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Well, what an area that got hit. Two areas that
I found out last night. Fraser Run Road, which is
like off of twenty as you're going, say, coming from
Center Wheeling, South Wheeling going up to Bethlehem where they
run the Ogden Race. Yes, okay, that's twenty ninth Street Hill. Well,
Fraser Run Road is your is your where the car

(03:39):
wash is, Pizza Villa, Silver Rail, things.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Like that, that little triangle, there's there's.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
A there's a there's a run that comes down and
that's where the cemetery got. All the damage last year
was on Fraser Run. Well, all that you know, was overflowing,
and a lot of people don't know this. When you
go into the Silver Rail, there's actually a trap door
that leads to the little creek that runs underneath from
back in the old days when they would dump like

(04:05):
mop water and stuff like that out into it. So
I'm guessing that I think that even though they're built
up a little bit, they may have gotten some water
in there. I'm not sure about Pizzavilla, but I saw
some video of that of the water rushing down twenty
ninth Street. So you know, some of the places are

(04:25):
built up a little bit, you know, like you got
in that area businesses. You have airport, limousine. There's a
Douggers market.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Is it Douggers is not a no.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
No, it's Douggers is right there. And then you have
the Silver Rail, you have Pizzavilla. Those are the main
businesses that are in that area. I'm not and when
I was. When I was at my place, they said
twenty ninth Street road was closed. When I left, I
saw a car driving on twenty ninth Street.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
So even though I didn't go that way, Yeah, I
saw a video where where city cops were diverting people
over near TJ's to you know, turn around and go back.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
And then the other thing. I have a neighbor that
we were talking about him the other day. His son
is the one that cuts my grass. His dad lives
in the apartments there near the charhouse. So you have
the charhouse on one side what used to be the
old Ernie's Esquire, and then on the backside are like
senior apartments. And he said that his dad didn't get affected,

(05:25):
but there was so much water that came off the
hill that it blew the doors off the frames of
his neighbor's apartment. So it was coming off the hill
and even though that's high up and you don't think,
you don't think about places like that being flooded, but
the runoff from the hill got into that building and
did some damage.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Well in those apartments right there sort of kind of
sit down.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
It's kind of like the old like when it was
Ernie's esquire that was kind of like where they could
have wedding receptions and they had gatherings and things like that,
and you know, you know, Ernie obviously let some of
that go because of his you know, age and everything else.
But they had rebuilt that into senior apartments and some
of those people, you know, I'm sure they lost a

(06:10):
lot of things. And you're in an area where you
don't have flood coverage and so I don't know, like, like,
even though you have renters insurance, I don't know if
that there's got to be something. I mean, the owner
probably has to have some sort of an insurance plan policy,
the renters probably, excuse me, have an insurance policy, but
I honestly doubt if they have flood insurance.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah, what all falls under that particular type?

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Now it's an act of God? And you know, is
it really is it really a flood? No? Because of water?
Just you know, there's probably some technical terms that go
in there. That'd be a great question for Elgin.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
But she's not here when we need her, you.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Know, call her. She'd probably love that.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Oh yeah, Friday morning, Hey knock, knock, wake up. Yeah,
that would go over well. But speaking of the flooding
victims and everything that of course is still going on.
There still in need of multiple things. Just to remind everybody,
I had a chance yesterday to speak to Stacy Stephen

(07:13):
from the executive director of the United Way. They are
still out there working those that small team of women
picking up and delivering food, mucking out houses, but they
are in need of dehumidifiers is a big one, a big, big,
big one, along with coolers, ice water. Just think the

(07:37):
basic essentials, you know. Speaking with her yesterday, she said,
you know, you don't understand it until you see it,
and to hear the stories that her and her team
are hearing. She said, just imagine that all you have
is literally what's on your back. That's it. That's what

(08:01):
some of these folks are dealing with. She said. You know,
you don't have underwear, you don't have socks, you don't
have a toothbrush, just those basic essentials. So again just
a reminder if you are looking to help, there's a
lot of things that are needed, including the biggest need
right now, fans dehumidifiers, thinking about think about drying out.

(08:23):
That's where your mind needs to go when helping these
people and then the basic essentials. But ice coolers, do, humidifiers, fans,
those are some of the biggest needs currently. So yeah,
like I said, speaking with her yesterday, otis it's just
and I don't want to repeat some of the stories
she told me because she heard those firsthand. But it

(08:45):
really does kick you in the stomach of you hear it.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Well, not everybody wants their story told.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
No, absolutely not, but to experience it. What they're getting
to see is just But then the other side and
she said this also is the people that are stepping up,
So that's a big part of it also. So seven fifteen, Oh,
when we get back, joy bayharr oh, Joy bayharr. Foot

(09:16):
in the mouth once again. And I'm gonna point out
why seven fifteen you're listening to the bloom Daddy Experience.
Sam and Otis News Radio eleven seventy WWVA, welcome back
on this Friday morning. It's seven twenty one. Thank you
for starting your morning off with us. Had a little

(09:38):
bit of a delay there, Sorry about that. No music
bringing it in, but that's all right, that's alright. Like
I said, it's a Friday, we're gonna have some fun
with that being said post this question last night actually
ties in perfectly with our next topic. But what annoys
you most? Something simple? So say, for example, for me,

(10:03):
it's a mouth breather. So what annoys you most? Like
I said, put this up on our Facebook page. Of
course you can comment there, just like Beth did. Beth said,
self checkout screaming at me first of all, just using
a self checkout in general annoys that you know what
out of me. But if you want to again, go

(10:24):
to our Facebook page just like Beth, or you can
go to our text line seven zero four seven zero
is the number, and then just start the message off
with bloom Daddy and then tell us what annoys you most,
because according to a most recent poll, unexpected guests and
slow Wi Fi are the top two things according to

(10:49):
this poll. Now slow wi Fi I must agree with,
but there are tons out there. So that's what we're
doing today, that's what we're having some fun with. So
what annoys you most?

Speaker 3 (11:00):
Currently? The downstairs printer?

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yes, technology is either your best friend or your absolute
villain of your life worst nightmare. So but speaking of annoying,
let's go to Joe I enjoy Bahart talk about annoying
basically that entire panel on the view she recently said
this week, and as a woman, I take huge offense

(11:27):
to this. She's now claiming, or she claimed this week,
that the women around Donald Trump are not there because
of the fact that they're strong women, that they're successful women. No, no, no,

(11:49):
she's saying that he only surrounds himself with women who
are obedient and compliment him. That he doesn't like strong women.
If you take a look at the women that he
is appointed in the positions that they hold, this current

(12:16):
women leading our government in their positions are some of
the most impressive women we have seen in DC ever.
But before we get to them, let's just start off
with his wife, Milania. She's a published author. Well, first

(12:36):
of all, she came here and did everything the right way.
First of all, as an immigrant, she came here, built
a life for herself, speaks five languages. She's quite impressive,
and she stands on her own with out him. When

(13:02):
I see her as the first lady, she is so
poised when she speaks. She speaks with such class. She's
very soft spoken, but that doesn't make her weak. It's
the word you have to words, you have to listen to.

(13:24):
But again, this woman speaks five languages, is an author.
It's the first lady. She's quite impressive. I don't think
she's quote unquote obedient to him. But then let's go
on into the positions. First of all, Homeland Security Secretary
Christy Nome. She's lying all over this country. She's not

(13:50):
holding back. She is showing a pillar of strength protecting
the homeland. She's not afraid to go on any Sunday
show and debate with some folks sitting behind the microphone
that try everything they can to stump her and make
her look foolish. Same thing with Tulcy Gabbard. She appeared

(14:14):
on the view prior to holding this position, when she
was running for office. I believe it was. I remember
seeing the interview, and they were trying to ask her
things about Trump, about conservatives, about the Republican Party, and
they're trying to point out things that, honestly, I apologize,

(14:34):
I can't remember exactly what all the topics were, but
she just steamrolled those women. Steamrolled those women. Attorney General
Pam Bondi, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wilds, who

(14:59):
was a huge portion of his campaign in the Comeback
one of the best we've ever seen in political history.
She was a driving force in that campaign and the
final one, Press Secretary Caroline Levette. She is one of
the most impressive young talents, male or female, that we

(15:26):
have seen come to DC in decades decades. I would
absolutely pay pay per view to see Caroline Levette go
on the view and see those women even remotely attempt

(15:47):
to debate with her. She has put reporters from CNN,
MSNBC and whoever else you want to name in their
place in that press room in their place. She just
did it yesterday. I would, I would, I would, I

(16:08):
would pay a hundred bucks, as I said, pay per
view to see that. Absolutely, So joy paihar take a
look in the mirror if you, because obviously you don't
know what a strong woman is because they are everywhere
in this Trump administration. And here's where they're gonna get you.
First off, you ask them the question what a woman is,

(16:31):
they actually know the answer, as opposed to you the
bloem Daddy experience. Sam and Otis News Radio eleven seventy
WWVA seven point thirty six on your Friday Thank you
for tuning in. Of course, I'm Sam that guy over there,

(16:54):
what's your name?

Speaker 3 (16:56):
Whatever you want it to be.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
Oh, I love when a man says that to me.
News Radio eleven seventy w w v A.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
What Well, So, like, you know, I have this name here,
I have the name that I was. Basically everybody's called
me from day one, but I go by my middle name.
So like when you go to the doctor's or you
have to register for anything that you know you need
your ID for, I have to put my real first name.

(17:24):
So it's like, call me whatever you want, I mean,
and then you know, I mean, I've had people say
what's your name? Jim, No, what's your name? Then? Ted? No?
You know, I mean, it's just like not that, not
that those are bad names, just like Whatever'll they'll say

(17:44):
a name and then they'll say my last name, and
then I'll go, oh that's me. It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Well, maybe that annoys you, It doesn't annoy me.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
I've gotten over it. It used to annoy me.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
Get used to it. Yeah, well that takes us too.
That's our question for today. You know, what is something
that annoys you? Forty percent of people in a recent
survey said loud chewing or heavy heavy breathing. I can't
stand heavy breathing that goes back to the whole mouth
breather thing. So we want to hear from you. Of
course you can go on our Facebook, you can call

(18:16):
us one six to fort eleven seventy, or of course
you can do like James did on our text line,
which is seven zero four seven zero. Start the message
off with bloom daddy, He says. Drivers who don't know
how to merge annoy you know what out of me?

Speaker 3 (18:37):
Just about anything related with driving annoys me. Yes, riding
the left lane and you're going yes, or cut pull
out in front of me, like when I when you
can see that I'm barreling down the left lane and
then you pull out in front of me, and then
you then you give me the finger like I did
something wrong. I had that happened to guy was driving
a rental truck and I mean I I was, I

(19:01):
mean I was almost to where he was and he
pulled out in front of me. And we're going up
the hill. So it's two lanes and it's just like, okay,
he's in the left lane, I'll get a following. We're
not even doing the speed limit. And as I passed him,
he gives me the finger, and I'm like, dude, I
didn't cut you off. You cut me off.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, yeah, driving is there's a reason why there's a
term called road rage like that history.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
I don't that's ninety percent of the reason why my
gun doesn't ride in the car with me.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Well, that term became, it came into existence for a reason.
There was a time I was going up seventy A
car got on at heading west at the mall exit.
So they came up and around heading west. I was

(19:55):
in the middle lane. No, I'm sorry, I was in
the left lane about to I was. I was no, no, no, no, no,
I was way above that was about to pass a
semi truck. A car came from the entrance ram ramp,
came right behind the semi truck, then decided he was

(20:17):
going to go faster than me, cut me off in
the far left hand lane in the passing lane, and
then kept the same speed as the truck. He might
as well have been.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
I have a sign in my car that says left
lane is for passing, and.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
I had to drop my speed because of it. Was like,
why did you even come over here? You're not going
to pass this? This truck like, oh it was I
hate that. I hate that. But again, our question today
is what are some things that annoy you? Tyler said,
people that want to have a family reunion in the
grocery in the grocery aisle. That's not a bad one.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
Well, I will say this on that topic, no annoying
like like in the in the store and you and
you're in your shopping and somebody's on their speaker phone.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
Oh yeah, you don't want to. You don't want to.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
First off, I don't want to hear you talk. I
don't want to hear the person you're talking to talk.
Like you can't just put it up against your ear
and say okay. You know, I get the fact that
maybe you know, you have FaceTime, and you have you
know whatever, and maybe you're trying to find you're shopping
for somebody, could be an elderly person, could be your husband,
could be somebody that's home bound or whatever, and maybe

(21:34):
they want something specific. So you're on your if you're
on your speakerphone or you're or whatever FaceTime, and maybe
you're trying to say, okay, is this the one you want?
I understand, I'll give you that, Okay, But just to say, well,
you know, little Johnny was went to day camp today
and some kid did this and and then well and

(21:56):
then you hear the person go, well, you know what
I would have done. I'd have told little Johnny to
just boo boom boom boo boo. And I'm like, I
just kind of look at him and go, do you
think people really want to hear your conversation? They don't.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah, And nine times out of ten, a lot of this.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
And they're probably Karens.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
But you're right, it's stuff that I don't want to hear.
Sometimes it's a wife complaining about her husband and it
just gets over the top. It's like, I don't want
to know your dirty laundry. They don't need to hear
any of that. This one on Facebook, Justin and Jeffrey
basically had the same comment. But Jeffreys, is is pretty good.

(22:34):
Big pharm of commercials that take twenty seconds to tell
you the good it will do for you and forty
seconds to dare you to take it. That's a good
way of putting it. That's pretty yoch, that's pretty good, Jeffrey. Yeah, Yeah,
you're right because the end of those commercials, the majority
of those commercials are the warnings, may cause hair loss, may.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
Cause there's a slim chance that you could die from
taking this medicine.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
You may want to call your doctor if you feel
your heart is stopping it.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
I always like when it says do not take it
if you're allergic. Well, how do you know if you're
allergic to it? Like if I if I take it
and I have an allergic reaction, you think I'm gonna
take it again? I mean, if it's a brand new drug,
how do I know if I'm allergic to it?

Speaker 2 (23:19):
There was one the first time I heard it talk
about a particular type of leakage. I thought, what, oh, okay,
Like who puts that? Yeah that's a huge selling point.
But that was one of the warnings. And yeah, that
would that would keep me all right? Tim said, Oh
this is nice. Tim said Sam.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
I kind of agree with Tim.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
Laughing emoji, smiling emoji.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
I was probably done in good fun.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
I'm sure it was. Oh but Denise comes to my
comes to my rescue, she said. Sam is the best. Denise, Denise, Denise,
you are my new favorite person. Denise, thank you.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
What's yours?

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Oh? I have so many of them people just listen.
Like I tell people, if it wasn't for the general public,
I probably wouldn't have a job. So you know, when
they do, when they do stupid things, and at ninety
nine percent of the time it's it annoys you.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
You know.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
So I just so, is.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
This is this the first step of becoming.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
The get off my launch?

Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yes? No, no, no.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
No, I've just I mean, not for you.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
I'm just saying in general, it could be.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
Yeah. I mean, like I have a hard time with
stupid people. Oh yeah, and I have a harder time
with stupid people that think they're smart.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Ah, yes, those are those are always and I could
I have a list of them.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
I mean I could. I could just start rattling off
names right off the top of my head.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
I always say, you can't fix stupid.

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Yeah, and there are people out there that just you know,
my buddy of mine said that to me. He said
the worst. He said, you can handle stupid people. It's
the ones that think they're smart that are hard to handle.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
Yeah. I know a couple of those.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
I know a couple of those, And they're the people
that are as bloom Daddy would say, they're the ones
that are just smart enough to keep from pooping themselves.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
I think there's a good handful of them that sit
in DC.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
There's a handful of them in this building. There's a
handful of the listen. They sit everywhere they do.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
But they're the ones that walk around sometimes that like
they puff their chest out because they think they're the
next Einstein. Yeah, and you're like, no, you really don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
How and they're the next Feinstein.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, you don't realize how stupid you actually are. Before
we go to break, guess what, I have a chance

Yes he did. I don't think I've ever had.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
I can tell you I never have.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
I don't believe I have sounds.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
That's what Charles Emerson Winchester the Third would drink on mash.
Oh he was a cognac man.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
Okay, that always makes me think of like Dallas or
a soap opera. The bad guys always would have a
like a cart with with alcohol, and they would have
the glass I don't know if it's a flat decanter
or whatever. And when they would when they were contemplating
a deep thought with you know, the soap opera, look right,

(28:48):
the deep thought. Look, they would go to their their
cart and they'd pour out some sort of cognac or something.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
And I spent two years the days of our lives
so in college. Oh my, I don't.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Admit that often that was the Bow and Hope time frame.
Was it Patch and Kayla? Yeah, oh learned something new today.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Stefan came back, but it was Jack Black or John
Black or whatever.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
Yeah, yeah, wow, oh, I'm just laughing and that's great.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
There was one semester I scheduled my classes around days
of our Lives. Not a proud moment in my life.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Was that when Marleno was was uh not obsessed shoot
the Devil? No, that wasn't That was after.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
That or before who knows. I know that they went
whitewater rafting someplace, supposedly because the town was Salem, but
it was like, was it Salem, Ohio? Was it Salem,
West Virginia? Was it Sale you know, you don't know,
was it Salem, Massachusetts? You don't know what Salem it was.
But somehow ended up in the mountains white or water rafting,

(30:02):
and I believe it was supposed to be in West Virginia.
And there was a big plot line around that, like
bo or Hope got tossed out of the raft and
it was you know, there was some questionable Patch went
from a bad guy to a good guy. He fell
in love with Kayla and every every kid for the
next five years was named Kayla every little girl yep, yep.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
So Bo and Hope were who I like. I wanted
my own bow. That was like the first like romance
couple I remember seeing, and I wanted to be like
Bo and Hope. Wow. Days of our lives, Days of
our lives.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Yeah, so eighty probably eighty six, eighty seven ish.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah, you volunteered this information.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
I did you volunteered it? I did, see, I said,
I'm not proud of it.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Well, but look how much you were.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
But here's the other thing. I also know I am
not the only one that ever did that. And I'm
speaking as guys not girls.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
Oh I know. Well, you know Victor Cyriacus's Jennifer Anderson's
dad in real life. Yeah, John Aniston, man, I thought
i'd stump people with that one. Okay, you know just
as much as I do. Come on, speaking of romance.
This weekend's the big wedding in Venice, the Jeff Bezos,
So we're not going to have him for a while.

(31:29):
I guess popping into our show, he's a little preoccupied
with his maybe million dollar, billion dollar wedding. The people
of Venice aren't real happy, it seems on different articles
that I've read up on right now. So far, he's
already presented his bride to be, Lauren Sanchez, with a
gift worth up to reportedly five million dollars through nearllion dollars?

(31:54):
Is that how he says it? And then throughout yeah,
throughout the lavish festivities, she's going to be wearing different
sets of jewels worth up to twenty to thirty million
dollars throughout the entire weekend. People there on site, the Kardashians,
Orlando Bloom, Oprah, you know, God forbid Oprah not make

(32:16):
an appearance.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Orlando Bloom Gwyn's stag now that he broke up, Yeah,

Speaker 2 (32:33):
Two buddies hanging out, and they're they're hoping to hook
up with the bride's maiden.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Yeah, they're those guys. They're those wedding guests. So he
will not be visiting us at anytime anytime soon. I
don't know where our invitations got lost in the mail.

Speaker 3 (32:48):
I mean, well I can tell you where mine did.
It didn't come with my Amazon package. Hits for sure,
no me neither.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Speaking of and speaking of.

Speaker 3 (32:57):
You're probably not allowed to pee during the wedding because
none of the AMA driver You're not allowed to, you know,
take a pee break or anything when you're when you
work for Amazon. What you don't remember that? That's that
that was the big story there for a while. Yeah,
you can take bathroom break. So if you were an
Amazon driver, you had to get your stuff out and
get it wooling.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Oh wow, all right, well now.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
Nobody can take a bathroom break during the wedding.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Well I had to visit one of those delivery trucks.
I can't be great. Also, speaking of Amazon, Amazon Prime
Day starts July eighth, goes through the eleventh, because.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
You know, four days this year.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
Bezos doesn't have enough money. But they've already launched twenty
five items early, including one hundred dollars off a dice
and vacuum cleaner and two hundred and thirty dollars off
electric wood grill. I don't know what that is. It's
an electric wood grill. I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
The grill's not made out of wood.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Yeah, that sounds backwards anyways. Prime Day Amazon July eighth
through the eleventh. So help them celebrate their lavish wedding.
Little celebration for them there when they're registered on Amazon.
What the bridal list is. Don't forget online on our
text line seven zero four seven zero for your chance

(34:09):
to win seven fifty eight. We'll be back.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Ze number one talk show in the Ohio Alley. This
is the bloom Daddy Experience. Your host, bloom Daddy. His
goal inform, entertain, and tick people off. The bloom Daddy
Experience on news Radio eleven seventy WWVA starts.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
Now eight o six. Thank you for tuning in. If
you're just tuning in, just waking up. Where are you been?
Where are you been? You're listening to the bloom Daddy Experience.
Otis and Sam here on news Radio eleven seventy WWVA.
What are we doing this show? We're talking what annoys you?

(34:52):
What is something that annoys you? As Tim said on Facebook,
he said, Sam, that's all that's all. Uh come up
with something new. Teach on Facebook just posted people who
stop on the road to wave me in when the

(35:12):
road is totally deserted and I'm not even looking at
that car. His second one is a ruben that arrives
with tofu and kim chi. That's not a ruben, uh
teach for me.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
That's one of the worst sandwiches ever.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
I've never heard of that one. No, I know what
a ruben is, but with tofu and kim.

Speaker 3 (35:34):
Chi, well, kim chi's Korean sauerkraut.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
Why know. Yeah, I'll tell you what teach that ever
went on a plate. In northern Ohio, especially the Cleveland area,
they'd kick you out.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
I put a ruben up there with like liver and onions,
like I've tried multiple ribbons. I don't know what I don't.
I don't have a problem with corn beef. I don't
have a problem with cabbage. I don't have a problem
with sauer kraut.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
But the whole combination just doesn't There's something that you
doesn't click. Well. See, my husband's from the Cleveland area,
and in northern Ohio, corn beef they call it mile
high on rye and rubens are sort of like it's
a thing if you're if you're from that area and
you do not like corn beef like you're they want

(36:18):
nothing to do with you. So when he goes to
a restaurant and there is a ruben on the menu,
that is his measuring stick. Basically, if a restaurant is good,
is their their level of success with a ruben? I
don't know not it's not my it's not my cup
of tea either, but that seems to be the the

(36:41):
go to for for him. But that's it. That's our
question today. What is something that annoys you? For me?
Like I said, mouth breathing. Oh, another one. Another one
is people who when they eat with a fork, drag
their their teeth across the fork.

Speaker 4 (37:02):
Ah Uh.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
It gives me chills. It's one of those noises like
nails on a chalkboard. I can't stand that, and there's
no reason for it. There's no purpose for it. But
the majority of what we're getting on Facebook has to
do with some sort of driving scenario. And again it
goes back to that is why the term what is

(37:28):
the term I just completely blanked? Road rage has been invented?
Franklin says, people who still wear masks.

Speaker 3 (37:38):
I saw this lady the other day in her car
winds rolled up with a mask on, and she was.
Judging by where the seat was positioned, she was probably
about five to two to five four and probably I'm
going to guess by the shoulders in the arms that
she was probably in the two hundred pound range. Okay,

(37:59):
wearing a mask, uh huh. And I couldn't help but laugh.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Was it one of the days where it was like
ninety eight degrees too?

Speaker 3 (38:06):
Yeah, I mean they had to win this up, so mean,
air was probably on, but you're in the car by herself.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
That heat still beaten through the front window, was still
hot with the air conditionrier. Yeah, yeah, I can't help
but look at people and think stupid real quick. An
update received this last night saw the post a High
Valley Ironman, which we have had Manny on the show
multiple times. Man named Matt Sakis, head coach and the

(38:33):
general manager of the team. Unfortunately, this is from the
announcement A High Valley Ironman have faced an unexpected challenge
following their commanding performances, which, by the way, if you
do not know the results of their first three games
forty five nothing, thirty nine nothing, eighty two to nothing,
which was the most recent game. Following these performances. Multiple

(38:56):
scheduled opponents have canceled their games, leaving the team without
a competitive path to complete the season at the level
that matches its ambitions. In response, the Ironmen have made
a difficult but strategic decision to conclude play early in
pivot toward preparing for a stronger and more sustainable return

(39:17):
in twenty twenty six. Again, Manny, the head coach and
general manager, says, nobody expected us to be this strong.
We were left scratching our heads when teams started dropping
off the schedule. So if they don't have abody to play,
they can't have games now. One thing they want people
to know is that all valid tickets and sponsorship commitments

(39:39):
will automatically roll into VIP packages for the twenty sixth
season that includes early event access, premium seating opportunities in
exclusive merchandise. Matt Sakus says, we are not going away.
This is a realignment with our purpose. The Ironman stand
for discipline, excellence, and community pride, and when we return

(40:02):
in twenty six we'll do so with an ironclad foundation
that reflects all three. That's unfortunate because there was a
lot of interest. There were many people going to the games,
the streaming of the games. Twenty thousand eyes roughly per week.
We're watching the games online. So you know, when I

(40:26):
saw this announcement last night, I was quite surprised. Surprised
by it because everything that I had been hearing, what
I had been seeing, what I had been reading, was
the excitement behind what this team was putting on the
field and the way that things were being managed. People
were excited. It's unfortunate.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
Well, sometimes when you get into a football league, and
you know, I mean I was. I was a season
ticket holder of indoor football up until last year, and
I was there when the Steel Valley Smash made their debut.
I was. I helped George and those guys with the Greyhounds, uh,

(41:08):
you know, doing some sales and doing some other things
for them. And when when when these when these fledgling
minor leagues pop up, Sometimes you don't know what you're
getting into. On paper, it looks like everybody's equal. When

(41:28):
when you get out on the field, sometimes it's not
that way, you know, And God rest George Kellis. But
his idea of the Steel Valley Smash when he first
got into it, he wanted to be he wanted it
to be players from this valley and great concept. Okay,

(41:53):
didn't necessarily work. I mean, he had good players, He
had Division I players. He I mean, he got a
couple of guys from WVU. He had like Rashaan Vanderpool.
He had Curtis McGee from pitt He had Carl Foder
who played at Marshall but was a little long in
the tooth at the time, probably thirty in his upper
thirties at the time. And then you know, then he

(42:15):
peppered it with you know, players from say Martin's Ferry
and and you know, he tried to get the Ohio
Valley involved. That's what he wanted. He wanted local name
recognition and and those guys played hard, they competed and
everything else. But some of those some of those players
were fine. Other players, it was it was a step

(42:35):
above where they should have been. And so then I
think they realized the second year of the Smash, they
kept some of the players, and they brought in some
new names and so on and so forth we got
a little more competitive. I believe they made the playoffs
in the second year. And then when they switched leagues
and went to the Ohio Valley Greyhounds. They knew what
they needed. You know. Yeah, you still had you still

(42:57):
had Jose Davis as your quarterback. You still had a
couple guys from West Liberty that were on the on
the on the defensive line. You had Mike Blackburn from Steubenville. Uh,
maybe he went to I don't know if he went
to Winnersville or Indian Creek, but Mike, uh, he's Stubenville's
wrestling coach.

Speaker 2 (43:14):
Right now, you're asking the wrong person.

Speaker 3 (43:16):
So I mean, but I mean they had they had
that that were local that you could There was a
Gary I can't take of Gary's last name. He played
defense too, but from Martin's Ferry. But you know, these
guys went out, but they also peppered it with guys
from Kent State and some Matt Conference, some WU you know.

(43:37):
So I mean they got and then that's why they
won two championships.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
Well and and from the results of these first couple
games with the iron Men, they put together a good.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Team, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, their team was balanced,
it was good. There was a couple of local guys,
but I'm thinking that some of the other teams were
trying to go to George Kellis route. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
Yeah, and it's unfortunate because there's a lot of work
put behind this franchise and what they've built. So hopefully
the twenty twenty sixth season Better Better can complete it.
It's eight fifteen. Just a reminder, we're doing your chance
to win on our text line seven zero four seven
zero for a date night two tickets to see Buddy

(44:16):

bloom Daddy Experience here on this Friday here on news
Radio eleven seventy WWVA. Well we've made of folks Friday,

(44:45):
the bloom Daddy Experience, samon Otis, News Radio eleven seventy wwva.
What is it? It's eight twenty two on this Friday.
Our question for today is what annoys you? What are
things that annoy you? Glenn says on Facebook Semis three
wide going up two Mile Hill. Yeah, that's always a fun.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
One, and they're not supposed to be in the left lane. No.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
Yeah, well let's see here, Jane says, people standing in
crowds with their hands on their hips and elbows sticking out. Yes,
that's kind of like if you're walking in a crowd
or you're walking down a street full of people. Every time,
people never move. I'm always the person that kind of
twists to the side to get out of the way.

(45:32):
I can't stand people who refuse to be polite, to
just politely turn a little bit in a crowd. They'll
just barrel through. They have they have no no time,
no respect, no uh politeness for anybody. They have where

(45:54):
they're going, and they could care less about anybody else
they're gonna go. Doesn't matter to them if you're in
their way or not. Nope, they're they're they're barreling through.
Today is actually National sunglasses Day. From the looks of
uh what I can see outside currently, don't really need those,
So it's National sunglasses.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
Day unless you want to look cool.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
Oh well yeah, but sometimes I look cool all the time.
I always have sunglasses on my head, no comment, No, okay.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
You know, sometimes when you have sunglasses on and you're
driving and like rainstorm and everything else, you would think
that you take your sunglasses off because it's dark, and
sometimes the sunglasses will filter out some of that mist
and you can actually see clearer than And when I
tell people that, they're like, you're out of your mind

(46:52):
and put your sunglasses on and they're like, oh, that
actually works, And I'm like, duh, why do you think
I told you? Like you think I'm making this crap up.
That's why I'm driving with my sunglasses on, you idiot.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
He learned that because he grew up watching Days of
Our Lives and Bo Brady wore sunglasses all the time
and it was cool. He no, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
I don't think he did.

Speaker 2 (47:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
There was a certain way like bo Brady when he
would drink a beer, he would hold it like a
certain way, and I would catch some of my friends
doing it that way.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
How do you remember that?

Speaker 3 (47:26):
Because I caught myself doing it? That's how I and
I have a friend that actually pointed it out and
I was not he was doing it, and I said,
what are you holding your beer like that? For? He
gives that's how bo Brady does it, and I was like,
you know what, you're right?

Speaker 2 (47:43):
What was the opening of the show like.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
Sayings to the hourglass, these are the days of our
lives we had. I had a text message friend to
show Buck said that he had three sisters and when
he wanted a ride to the pool, he had to
wait until Days of Our Lives was over. So he
said he watched it growing up in the eighties because
they were watching it.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
Sure Buck, sure, sure you got into it. Though. I
bet he knows exactly what we've been talking about. He
knows everything.

Speaker 3 (48:14):
Well, you sit there, you get addicted to it, and
then you know, then you figured out the pattern. So
the storylines on Monday, Wednesday, Friday or the big the
big stories that that was the Friday was.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
The cliffhanger, Tuesday, Thursday.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Thursdays were like the secondary stories.

Speaker 2 (48:31):
Yep, yep. Those were kind of like the throwaway line. Yeah,
they were the throwaway days that if you had to
make like if you had to go to the dentist,
you booked it on a tour to schedule.

Speaker 3 (48:41):
A class on Tuesday and Thursday.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
You were in college. There was there was one time
I was at a business event and I got to
talking to somebody and somehow, like facial expressions came up
and I don't know why, but I said, have you

(49:07):
ever pulled the soap opera gaze on somebody? And they
were like, what do you what? And I said the
concerned soap opera face. No, and I said, let me
let me do a demo for you. And I said,
imagine chimes in the background and you look off and
you're very concerned, and then you look back to the

(49:28):
person with just deep I said, that's the soap opera look.
Then you go to a commercial break, and then you
learn not learn about tide laundry detergent something.

Speaker 3 (49:41):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (49:41):
I love the fact that you watch Days of Our Lives, Buck.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
Said, he absolutely got into it. Well I'm glad I'm
not alone, but thanks, buddy, appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
Anyways, It's also National Beautician's Day, so shout out to
all the guys and gals that make you look as
good as you can look.

Speaker 3 (50:03):
And you know, while we're talking about that, wait, you've
got a beautician. Well that's what I was gonna say.
Patty's Hairshop out on National Road, across from the Dairy Queen.
She has graciously offered to donate every fourteenth haircut. Because
the flooding was on June fourteenth, So every fourteenth haircut

(50:23):
she will donate to the flood victims the cost of
the haircut. She has at least one anonymous donor that
whatever she raises, that donor will match, and I believe
there's also a second anonymous donor that will match whatever
she raises. Wow, so if she raises one thousand dollars,
then it's going to be end up dollars. And she

(50:44):
also has a little fish bowl donation jar. So you know,
you go out, you get your haircut, haircuts eighteen dollars,
you know, leave a healthy tip, and then throw a
five into the donation jar when you get your haircut.
I get my haircut about every two weeks.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
So well, and here's the thing, folks, You know, we
keep sprinkling in things about the flood victims and the
cleanup and what is still needed. Because right off the bat,
everybody's pulled in, everybody's stepping up, everybody's volunteering all of
that kind of stuff. But this doesn't end in a week.
So that's why we keep peppering in what is going

(51:23):
on and updating you on what is needed.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
And she's doing that from now until August fourteenth, said
two months.

Speaker 2 (51:29):

Speaker 3 (52:27):
I had several people approached me with movies that we
didn't even think of.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
Okay, where we dropped the ball a little bit, Well.

Speaker 3 (52:33):
Well, we definitely dropped the ball on one of Okay.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Well, one of the ones we talked about was Ferris Buellers.
So did you realize that the best that he wore
from that film is off being auctioned off by uh Southerby's.

Speaker 3 (52:50):
Yeah it completed, Yeah, it completed.

Speaker 2 (52:52):
But it did not garner what they thought.

Speaker 3 (52:54):
It was a nice little heavy price tag.

Speaker 2 (52:56):
Yeah, two hundred and eighty thousand dollars for.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
A vest they were expecting over six hundred thousand. I think.

Speaker 2 (53:02):
Yeah, it didn't. It didn't go. It was estimated between
three hundred to six hundred thousand.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
The movie that we totally forgot, yeah, Porky's.

Speaker 4 (53:12):
Oh yeah that that movie, Yeah, was legendary because it
appealed to everybody.

Speaker 3 (53:23):
It was based in the fifties, late fifties, early sixties
in Florida, and like so, the adults at the time,
the baby boomers related to it, and the and the
younger generation, the gen xers that were going to see it,
like they just thought, I mean, the potty humor and

(53:46):
everything else that was in it. But there are iconic
scenes from that movie that still resonate today.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
I didn't know Kim Katrell was oh yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (53:59):
Yeah, she's the she's the cheerleading coach.

Speaker 2 (54:03):

What was buela ballbricker was it was the was the
gym teacher that was trying to identify Tommy's.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
We also forgot Revenge of the Nerds.

Speaker 3 (54:23):
Yeah, with with at least two sequels, I think, I believe,
I think there was. There was Revenge of the Nerds
two and three. I believe there was a third one.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
There was a lot of people in Revenge.

Speaker 3 (54:33):
Listen. I just had one pop in my head because
one of the bad guys from Revenge of the Nerds
is also in another classic Rodney Dangerfield movie, Back to
School of the Yes, Yes, and Terry Farrell got her
start there. That was her big thing. And Robert Downey

(54:53):
Junior was in that movie as well. He played the
roommate of Rodney's son.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
Oh, I don't remember that. Yeah, yeah, some people called
you out. What were some of the other ones that
they said we missed?

Speaker 3 (55:05):
I probably had four people come up to me and say,
Porty's okay. There were a couple of other ones. I
was like, man, I'm not familiar with that. I'm not
familiar with that. There were some other ones that weren't,
like like Harrison Ford in Witness. Oh, that's a good
it's a good movie. But I mean, you know, like
it's not like I wouldn't consider.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
It, like, no, you think, Harrison.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
It wasn't a blockbuster, but it was a good one.
But you know, other movies that like we Like a
Christmas Story came out in the eighties, Uh, not huge
at the box office, but as has exploded in in
Reynolds and with TBS and well oh yeah, t n.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
T And we forgot Flashdands, we forgot Pretty Woman.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
There was there was a there was a really good movie,
Oh no, my goodness, The Midnight Run with Robert de
Niro and what the heck's James Groden? Charles Groden and
the other guy that was from Beverly Hills cop They

(56:16):
they they're bounty there's two bounty hunters and Charles Groden's
the bad guy and so the one bounty hunter and
de Niro are trying to get this guy back. And
I mean it's one of the funniest movies ever. I mean,
you know, you can take Robert De Niro's political stuff
and throw it in the trash, right, but this is
a great movie fast times. I think we brought it up,

(56:38):
didn't we know, I thought we did huh.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Fast Times at Ridgmond High. We forgot that one to
see in the eighties though, I was I was a kid,
so a lot of the stuff. When I think of
eighties movies, Goonies, Labyrinth, go to the Younger Dark Chrystal,
go to the GPG area, Yeah, I go to the
PG thirteen. Yeah, never ending story. You know, that's where
my mind goes with a lot of the eighties stuff. Yeah.

(57:03):
Oh well, hey, we know people are listening.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Yeah, but back to what we dropped. Dropped that Rodney
Dangerfield with Caddy Shack. Oh we didn't even mention Caddy
Shack and you know that, but that's like nineteen eighty.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
Bill Murray stripes.

Speaker 3 (57:23):
Yeah, stripes. Oh man, we did say Ghostbusters yesterday, Yeah
we did. But there's there's like Rodney Dangerfield in the
weird looking in Caddy Shack. I mean, he was a
secondary character in that, but stole the movie.

Speaker 2 (57:41):
Yeah, yeah, he did. He did.

Speaker 3 (57:43):
He's got the Asian guy in the in the in
the in the in the club shop, uh you know,
and they they're all looking around at stuff that they
can buy, and the Asian guys got the stereotypical camera
around his neck and everything else. And his name's Rodnie
Datingerfield says, hey, Wang, they discriminate here, tell them you're Jewish.

(58:07):
Just stupid stuff, I mean some of the lines. And
then he's got that golf bag that's got the radio
in it and everything else. And they said he is
I forgot. Hey, let's dance and he turns it on
and it's Journey and he's out on the golf course dancing.
I mean, well, and how.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Many people re enacted the candy bar scene in the
in the pool?

Speaker 3 (58:28):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (58:28):
Yeah, you know all that kind of stuff. No, I
love Stripes. I absolutely love Stripes, John Candy. You know,
it's it's actions like John Kenny is, like what would
he be like today? What other movies would he have
made if we hadn't have lost him when we did?
I mean, Uncle Uncle Buck is a classic. Stripes is

(58:51):
a classic. The Great Outdoors Love And that's one you've
never seen, right.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
Great Outdoors? Yes, I think I've seen bits and pieces
of it.

Speaker 2 (58:59):
Ah, love that movie. What are you laughing at?

Speaker 3 (59:02):
Some text about Days of our Lives? I'll show it
to you during But you know the John Candy movie
that I liked was Who's Harry Cromer who's afraid of
Harry crime or something and he thinks he's a detective
and it's with Shawnnie Smith.

Speaker 2 (59:23):
I don't think I've ever seen that one.

Speaker 3 (59:25):
And he's a detective, but she's like the young teenage girls.
It's basically like solving all the problems for him, but
he looks like the yeah, and she but then you know,
and then they develop a bond and everything else.

Speaker 2 (59:37):
Well, then there's Steve Martin from the eighties. I mean
everything that he did.

Speaker 3 (59:41):
Jerk, but that's the Jerk was in the seventies. Oh, okay,
but he did rock Sanne uh huh. I believe Father
of the Bride was later. I think that was probably
in the.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Nineties, early early early nineties. Well, then there were Splash,
but that was a chick flick. You wouldn't have watched
that one.

Speaker 3 (59:57):
I don't think I've ever seen it.

Speaker 2 (59:59):
Daryl Hannah, No, I know.

Speaker 3 (01:00:01):
Tom Hanks, yeah, is in it. There's a there's another
bad movie with Mark Harmon and I believe Kirsty Alley. Okay,
Summer School.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
I remember hearing that one.

Speaker 3 (01:00:14):
I think Shawnnie Smith was in that. One too.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
I don't know who Shawannie Smith is.

Speaker 3 (01:00:19):
If you if you saw she's got like this real
nasally voice. She was in Becker with Ted Danson and
Terry Farrell Smith and Shawnie's s h A W n
E E.

Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Oh yes, okay, yeah, I recognize her.

Speaker 3 (01:00:35):
There's a reason I recognize her.

Speaker 2 (01:00:38):
Oh, let me guess what that one is.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
Oh, that's that's that's that's one of those twenty something crushes.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Yeah, it's kind of the girl next door kind of look.

Speaker 3 (01:00:48):
But her voice is just so annoying, like you want
to smack her. I wouldn't, but I mean, that's.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Just that's nice. Well, folks, these are the days of
our lives. This Friday, how was that nice?

Speaker 3 (01:01:03):
Say forty five your chance to win? You got two
chances with the last call for text seventy four to
seventy bloom Daddy your name and phone number for two
tickets to Buddy Guy and a gift certificate the River City.
Plus we're gonna be taking your chance to win the
same phone via phone at the end of the show.

Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
Yep, so that's coming up. You're listening to the bloom
Dedy Experience. Samon Otis News Radio eleven seventy w w VA,
Welcome Back eight point fifty one, The bloom Daddy Experience,
salmon Otis News Radio, eleven seventy WWVA. Eugene, Eugene, Eugene,

(01:01:46):
you bout made me tear up. And that sounds really silly,
but Eugene sent me the opening of Days of Our
Lives from seventy two to nineteen ninety three with McDonald
carey and his voice over and the whole thing, and
it took me immediately back to my grandmother's house in Edina,
like like even now, just saying it to make me
tear up.

Speaker 3 (01:02:06):
I remember, I remember watching that when my grandma, my
grandmother would watch her quote.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
Unquote stories, her stories, yep, and.

Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
She was Days of Our Lives, another world and whatever
was on after another world, and and then it went
to like Phil Donahue and yeah whatever. And so I remember,
you know, being a kid seven, eight, nine years old,
maybe ten, and those would come on and you're like,
what are you watching this for? This is so stupid?

(01:02:33):
And then eight years later I'm scheduling classes around to
watch it.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
Isn't it funny how everybody's grandmother called it? There's their
stories I've got to get home. My stories are coming, story,
my stories are And it was always you were one
network or the other. So you were Days of Our Lives,
Young and the Restless on NBC. CBS was Young and
the Restless. ABC was around the World as the World Turns,

(01:02:59):
and then ABC was the General Hospital. I don't remember
the rest of him on ABC. But no, we mentioned
during the break, we're talking about Luke and Laura's wedding
that was like one of the first musty TV events
that wasn't like a Super Bowl. I mean, it's amazing
how this stuff sticks with you. But yeah, Eugene, my gosh,

(01:03:19):
just to hear that yeah got me well.

Speaker 3 (01:03:22):
And then we also had a I got a text
from a loyal listener, Jeff, that was talking about Porky's
uh huh and he said, the scene where they're trying
to identify Tommy's uh huh Tally wagger uh huh in
the office with the principal, the coaches and Bulah Ballbricker

(01:03:42):
is one of the funniest movie scenes ever and that
is that is not alive. That is a classic scene.
And as they're done, they pant, the camera pans and
it's to the president, and I think it was either
I don't if it was Eisenhower or Kennedy or I
forget who the president, but they paid and they're just
you can hear them cracking up. I mean, as she's

(01:04:04):
trying to describe it, they all just start to lose it.
And it's and he said at the end of the
texting is just thinking about it. I'm busting out laughing,
And I mean, it is one of the greatest scenes
of all time. So if you've never seen Porky's, you
have to see Porky's.

Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
I've seen Porky. I've seen Porky's, but man, you're taking
me back. I've only seen it once. Like, it's not
one that I've watched over and over like Porky.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
Well, you know, the character is pee wee meat Tommy.
I mean, and then you had the you know, it
was your stereos, like the reason the baby Boomers related
to it, it was your stereotypical high school Well what.

Speaker 2 (01:04:41):
Came first was it was it Revenge of the Nerds,
Porkys Meatballs.

Speaker 3 (01:04:47):
Meat Balls was terrible.

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
But I'm just saying it seems like there became a trend.

Speaker 3 (01:04:52):
I want to say that Meatballs might have been first.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
Oh really, I say, I thought Porky's was first, but
it's a you're looking.

Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
Meat Balls was seventy nine, so that was actually.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
I was later. Seems like it would be later.

Speaker 3 (01:05:10):
Porkys was eighty one.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
Okay, I see, I don't think Porky's.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Was first, meat Balls was first, Porky's was second. What
was the other one, Revenge Revenge of the Nerds eighty four?

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
Oh okay, Well, anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:05:26):
So I mean for eighty one, I mean and Porky's,
Porky's two, or Porky's Your Revenge, whatever it was.

Speaker 2 (01:05:34):
Well, the sequels are never as good.

Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
Yeah, it was never Porky's Revenge. That was ninety five
or eighty five. I'm sorry. So it came out four
year late, four years later. Same, not the entire cast,
but a lot of them came back forward, and of
course they're four years older. And yeah, in fact, that
there was a character in Porky's that ended up on

(01:05:57):
Days of Our Lives, a character or an actor, I'm sorry,
an actor.

Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
I was gonna say, how does the Porky's character end
up on Days of Our Lives? Well, and on our
text line? Got U. Don't forget about the History of
the World movies. I believe we mentioned those yesterday.

Speaker 3 (01:06:10):
But there was only one. Oh they they promode History
of the World Port two. It never came out.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Oh it didn't. Oh what about the Belushie Animal House?

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:06:23):
Did we mention that one? Was that the sevenies?

Speaker 3 (01:06:25):
I think his seventies because he was still on he
was still on Saturday Live. They actually wanted dan Aykroyd
to be in that movie, and I guess Lauren Michaels
threatened dan Aykroyd that he would fire him if he
went to if he went and did the movie with
John Belushi.

Speaker 2 (01:06:37):
Because Belushi had left usenal at that he hadn't left.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
But he went to do the movie, and Lauren Michaels
didn't want both actors gone at the same time, both
players or whatever you want, both of them were gone
at the same time.

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
Well before our time's gone. Let's do our first our
