Ninety three point one w p C.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Now, I just want to put a lid on what
we were talking about last hour. Did a whole bunch
of never have I ever basically like a whole bunch
of people haven't done a lot of different things.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I want to challenge everybody to do something they've never.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Done today live right, So like somebody never had sushi
go there for lunch.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Now here's something I wish they could say they never did.
Because it's a sickening story about this. Oh had Cemetery
Pet funeral home in Baltimore. This started in Baltimore, Bethany,
and now it's expanded to Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
The story gets nuttier. It started some time ago.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You may have heard with animals being dumped on the
side of the road here in Baltimore, and I thought
that was the worst thing I'd ever heard. Then they
say the police they did an inspection and a search
and they found a hearse loaded with animal carcasses.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
That's terrible.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
And now we find out from West Baltimore to Pittsburgh,
there's another company up there in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
It's called where's the name of this place?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
The Verub Funeral Home and Eternity Pet Memorial in Pittsburgh,
owned by Patrick Verub, is accused of deceiving six five
hundred pet owners by providing ashes from unknown animals instead
of their pets. Collecting over six hundred and fifty seven
thousand dollars in fees, and the guy's now turned himself in.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
He's gone to jail.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
But I mean he's been lying to people telling him that, oh,
here are the ashes of your pet.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Meanwhile, who knows what he's doing with the animal, and
who knows what the ashes are like?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
And then moving forward, how do any of us know? Oh,
how do we verify?
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Yeah, this brings a lot of shade on the whole industry,
and you know, God forbid this ever happened with humans
as well. But I mean, can you how do you
know what you're getting? Think about that? I don't love this, No,
I don't either.

A Mark Chestnut country star Mark Chestnut has revealed he's
been struggling with alcoholism and health issues, including spinal surgery
and multiple organ failure. His heavy drinking led to a
hospital stay in Knoxville, where he was diagnosed with cirrhosis
of the liver and also some esophageal issues. So doctors
(12:29):
warned him that he needed to quit drinking to survive,
which led him to decide to become sober. So he's
doing better. He's been sober since November of twenty twenty three.
He's announced his Redemption tour focused on his health and sobriety.
So we wish him the best of luck Mark Chestnut
big country star back in the nineteen nineties and he's

Ninety three point one WPOC. Have you ever asked yourself, man,
wish my parents would have taught me that when I
was a kid. Something happens in your life. And you're like,
I should have known that. It happened to me yesterday?
Oh what happened? I was fixing the weed whacker and
I was like, man, I wish my dad would have
taught me how to get the weed whacker off to
(13:54):
restring it. Okay, thank goodness for YouTube.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
YouTube does step in for on parenting.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
Twenty minutes and took me to get the string back,
but I get it. Ye.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Call all your kids, yeah, and them this is how
you do it?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Seven seven nine six to begin your message with hi
or hey or call us eight hundred three to two
one thirty six ninety three. What do you wish your
parents would have taught you? Okay, how to budget? Oh
that's a good one. Somebody said, see my parents don't
know how to budget?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Well, that's an important okay, right.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
As we discuss this, it is important to note that
most of our parents are really just doing the very
best they can, and we.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Get their bad habits, and it was like they're human,
you know, like we're on a human we're all out juste.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
But somebody didn't teach their kids that they can't microwave aluminum.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
Oh yeah, you don't want to do that. That's what
you're going to learn about lightning really quick?
Speaker 6 (14:51):

Speaker 2 (14:51):
How to flirt without sounding like a customer service rap?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I'm just following up on the vibe that I thought
we had last night, right right?
Speaker 4 (15:01):
Right?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Should your parents teach you how to flirt?
Speaker 4 (15:03):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:04):
No? And you know what, times change and some of
the things that they would say today are probably inappropriate.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
What about folding a fitted sheet?
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Oh, I think we all need to learn that.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I don't think anybody can really do that.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
I learned a trick where you start with the two corners,
you put them together, and then you slide both of
those into the third corner. Then you drop it down
and you can somehow make it look like a dog
a dog, it's a mass.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
I don't think anyone can really do that.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
I think I feel really blessed because I think my
parents did teach me a lot. My parents are really scrappy,
so I learned a lot of their tricks and I
really like that. You're so funny, all right, but I
wish and maybe this is just a product of growing
up in the nineties, right, Like I wish that I
realized that my body was perfect just the way that
it was, because.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I think self esteem is where you're going.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I think, so, yeah, you know, but in a lot
of ways, I think I'm fantastic, but.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
You are fantastic, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Likes the I think a body image issue in the
nineties was a really big situation, and so that's one
thing that I wish that I had.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Well, Instagram and social media didn't help, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Look at me, I could suck my cheeks and yeah,
make the duck face, fish face.
Speaker 8 (16:19):
Fish Oh you look so skinny, lasted, I can't remember
everything we say we said.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
It you doing going?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Go?
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Luke Combs one of our favorite Lukes here on ninety
three point one, WDPOC, Michael j and Bethany. Well this
has gone off in a great area. We've been asking
this morning, what is it that you wish your parents would.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Have taught you when you were a kid.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Somebody said, well, you were saying how you learned stuff
on YouTube that your parents didn't teach you. And some
said my son learned how to tie shoes on YouTube.
I can't even wrap my head around the method he's
used this, but he's been doing it for eight years.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
When I saw that, I flashed back to being in
like first or second grade, and I just could not
get the whole tie in your shoes thing. My mother
sat there and spent hours with me. Yeah, and I
couldn't get it, you know, like you had to wrap it.
The rabbit goes round the barn and they're down the hole.
I don't know, you couldn't do it, so I so
then I was taught you take two bunny ears to
(17:28):
loop method.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Yeah, and you just take those in loop them and
it works, easy to go.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
And the thing is, I'm still tying shoes like that today, though.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Well some people took it in a little bit deeper direction. Yeah, okay.
I wish my parents would have taught me. How to
set boundaries without guilt.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That's a bow. That is a big one.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
How to handle money without shame, how to let's see,
how to end a relationship before it explodes.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
That's a really good one.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I wish my mom would have taught me emotions aren't weakness.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
You know, if we can teach our kids anything, it's
about how to deal with emotional relationships and people close
to you.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yeah, and you know what else is like is communication.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Yeah, we're just kind of set on our way.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
And you know what, I don't blame our parents, but
I wish you know at some point.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
But it's hard because like you know this because you've
you've done it four times. Yeah, you can teach your
kids until you're blue in the face, but they might
not retain it.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
No, or they don't want to, they don't understand it
because you got to learn it yourself, or.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
They think you're an idiot.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Yeah, it's really hard. I mean, you know, it's very
very difficult.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Somebody on text that I wish my parents taught me
better finances.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
You know.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
The other thing is things have changed so much, like
generation to generation, Like money is different, and.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
You know, everything's different.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
So your parents can teach you how it was when
they were a kid or whatever, but like things are
entirely different now.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
You know what I think would be the best thing
that we could teach our kids how to love yourself,
because that's a big problem I think we all have
on some.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Level, yeah, self worth, and like you said earlier, with
social media, it just adds a whole nother layer of
I'm not good enough.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Well, there you go, absolutely.

Speaker 5 (19:20):
Enough, No, you gotta are. Self esteem is important something
I battle constantly.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
Ninety three point one w p C.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Now, I just want to put a lid on what
we were talking about last hour. Did a whole bunch
of never have I ever basically like a whole bunch
of people haven't done a lot of different things.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I want to challenge everybody to do something they've never.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Done today live right, So like somebody never had sushi
go there for lunch.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Now here's something I wish they could say they never did.
Because it's a sickening story about this. Oh had Cemetery
Pet funeral home in Baltimore. This started in Baltimore, Bethany,
and now it's expanded to Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
The story gets nuttier. It started some time ago.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You may have heard with animals being dumped on the
side of the road here in Baltimore, and I thought
that was the worst thing I'd ever heard. Then they
say the police they did an inspection and a search
and they found a hearse loaded with animal carcasses.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
That's terrible.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
And now we find out from West Baltimore to Pittsburgh,
there's another company up there in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
It's called where's the name of this place?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
The Verub Funeral Home and Eternity Pet Memorial in Pittsburgh,
owned by Patrick Verub, is accused of deceiving six five
hundred pet owners by providing ashes from unknown animals instead
of their pets. Collecting over six hundred and fifty seven
thousand dollars in fees, and the guy's now turned himself in.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
He's gone to jail.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
But I mean he's been lying to people telling him that, oh,
here are the ashes of your pet.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Meanwhile, who knows what he's doing with the animal, and
who knows what the ashes are like?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
And then moving forward, how do any of us know? Oh,
how do we verify?
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Yeah, this brings a lot of shade on the whole industry,
and you know, God forbid this ever happened with humans
as well. But I mean, can you how do you
know what you're getting? Think about that? I don't love this, No,
I don't either.
Speaker 3 (10:19):

Hey, I wanted to tell you a couple of stories.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
A Mark Chestnut country star Mark Chestnut has revealed he's
been struggling with alcoholism and health issues, including spinal surgery
and multiple organ failure. His heavy drinking led to a
hospital stay in Knoxville, where he was diagnosed with cirrhosis
of the liver and also some esophageal issues. So doctors
(12:29):
warned him that he needed to quit drinking to survive,
which led him to decide to become sober. So he's
doing better. He's been sober since November of twenty twenty three.
He's announced his Redemption tour focused on his health and sobriety.
So we wish him the best of luck Mark Chestnut
big country star back in the nineteen nineties and he's
(12:52):
still out there doing it now, so hoping, you know,
hoping he can keep.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Things on the up and up.

traffic al right, excellent on the outer between bel a rotations.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Ninety three point one WPOC. Have you ever asked yourself, man,
wish my parents would have taught me that when I
was a kid. Something happens in your life. And you're like,
I should have known that. It happened to me yesterday?
Oh what happened? I was fixing the weed whacker and
I was like, man, I wish my dad would have
taught me how to get the weed whacker off to
(13:54):
restring it. Okay, thank goodness for YouTube.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
YouTube does step in for on parenting.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
Twenty minutes and took me to get the string back,
but I get it. Ye.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Call all your kids, yeah, and them this is how
you do it?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Seven seven nine six to begin your message with hi
or hey or call us eight hundred three to two
one thirty six ninety three. What do you wish your
parents would have taught you? Okay, how to budget? Oh
that's a good one. Somebody said, see my parents don't
know how to budget?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Well, that's an important okay, right.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
As we discuss this, it is important to note that
most of our parents are really just doing the very
best they can, and we.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Get their bad habits, and it was like they're human,
you know, like we're on a human we're all out juste.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
But somebody didn't teach their kids that they can't microwave aluminum.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
Oh yeah, you don't want to do that. That's what
you're going to learn about lightning really quick?
Speaker 6 (14:51):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
How to flirt without sounding like a customer service rap?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I'm just following up on the vibe that I thought
we had last night, right right?
Speaker 4 (15:01):
Right?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Should your parents teach you how to flirt?
Speaker 4 (15:03):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:04):
No? And you know what, times change and some of
the things that they would say today are probably inappropriate.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
What about folding a fitted sheet?
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Oh, I think we all need to learn that.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I don't think anybody can really do that.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
I learned a trick where you start with the two corners,
you put them together, and then you slide both of
those into the third corner. Then you drop it down
and you can somehow make it look like a dog
a dog, it's a mass.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
I don't think anyone can really do that.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
I think I feel really blessed because I think my
parents did teach me a lot. My parents are really scrappy,
so I learned a lot of their tricks and I
really like that. You're so funny, all right, but I
wish and maybe this is just a product of growing
up in the nineties, right, Like I wish that I
realized that my body was perfect just the way that
it was, because.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I think self esteem is where you're going.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I think, so, yeah, you know, but in a lot
of ways, I think I'm fantastic, but.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
You are fantastic, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Likes the I think a body image issue in the
nineties was a really big situation, and so that's one
thing that I wish that I had.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Well, Instagram and social media didn't help, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Look at me, I could suck my cheeks and yeah,
make the duck face, fish face.
Speaker 8 (16:19):
Fish Oh you look so skinny, lasted, I can't remember
everything we say we said.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
It you doing going?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Go?
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Luke Combs one of our favorite Lukes here on ninety
three point one, WDPOC, Michael j and Bethany. Well this
has gone off in a great area. We've been asking
this morning, what is it that you wish your parents would.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Have taught you when you were a kid.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Somebody said, well, you were saying how you learned stuff
on YouTube that your parents didn't teach you. And some
said my son learned how to tie shoes on YouTube.
I can't even wrap my head around the method he's
used this, but he's been doing it for eight years.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
When I saw that, I flashed back to being in
like first or second grade, and I just could not
get the whole tie in your shoes thing. My mother
sat there and spent hours with me. Yeah, and I
couldn't get it, you know, like you had to wrap it.
The rabbit goes round the barn and they're down the hole.
I don't know, you couldn't do it, so I so
then I was taught you take two bunny ears to
(17:28):
loop method.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Yeah, and you just take those in loop them and
it works, easy to go.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
And the thing is, I'm still tying shoes like that today, though.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Well some people took it in a little bit deeper direction. Yeah, okay.
I wish my parents would have taught me. How to
set boundaries without guilt.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That's a bow. That is a big one.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
How to handle money without shame, how to let's see,
how to end a relationship before it explodes.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
That's a really good one.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I wish my mom would have taught me emotions aren't weakness.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
You know, if we can teach our kids anything, it's
about how to deal with emotional relationships and people close
to you.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yeah, and you know what else is like is communication.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Yeah, we're just kind of set on our way.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
And you know what, I don't blame our parents, but
I wish you know at some point.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
But it's hard because like you know this because you've
you've done it four times. Yeah, you can teach your
kids until you're blue in the face, but they might
not retain it.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
No, or they don't want to, they don't understand it
because you got to learn it yourself, or.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
They think you're an idiot.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Yeah, it's really hard. I mean, you know, it's very
very difficult.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Somebody on text that I wish my parents taught me
better finances.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
You know.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
The other thing is things have changed so much, like
generation to generation, Like money is different, and.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
You know, everything's different.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
So your parents can teach you how it was when
they were a kid or whatever, but like things are
entirely different now.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
You know what I think would be the best thing
that we could teach our kids how to love yourself,
because that's a big problem I think we all have
on some.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Level, yeah, self worth, and like you said earlier, with
social media, it just adds a whole nother layer of
I'm not good enough.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Well, there you go, absolutely.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Ninety three point one WPOC traffic.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
So this is Michael Jane Bethany reminding you that you are.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Enough, No, you gotta are. Self esteem is important something
I battle constantly.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I mean, who doesn't if you if you pretend like
you don't, you're probably lying right all right? Seventy eastbound
