Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, guys, it's Bethany from the Michael J. Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to Michael J and Bethany after Hours.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Ninety three point one wp C.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
No, well, the good news is today is May sixth, Bethany,
does that date? Ring a bell?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
No?

Speaker 3 (00:24):
May six You know what's our four month anniversary of
working again? Four months?

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Cue and we've never had a fight. Yeah, that's cute.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
No, I mean, so I've given my opinion on the
four month morning show together. What do you have to say?

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Oh, it's been so much fun, so much energy.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
All right, Yeah, I think it's been great. If you
want to give us European four months in.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
I can't believe it's been four months already.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Evans of An nine six two, begin your message with.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Hi or hey sweet, And we're already getting some text
about the big story.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
About Justin Tucker being released from the Ravens. Yesterday, Eric
Costa said it was a football decision.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Now people are asking what we think. I don't know
that our opinion really matters that much.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
I think, well, I think saying it was a football
decision is not the right thing to say, because it
wasn't a football decision. He's really good at football. That's
not We're like, yeah, we were talking about football.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
We can he had a really bad season, so wet
a lot on his mind based on last year's performance.
I can see this. The one thing I keep going
back to is there's been so many kind of you know,
stories of the various massage therapists, all sixteen or whatever
of them. There's one that really stood out in my mind. Okay,

(01:41):
she goes as E. They don't want to give their names.
They're trying to protect the women. Some people have an
issue with that. I think it's fine because they're coming
out and they're saying what happened.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
I can't believe the anger toward the women. Yeah, there's
a lot. I really can't believe that.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Well, so listen to this.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
He was twenty one, a newly licensed massage and about
seven months pregnant. I don't need to get into the
description of everything that she claims happened, but it's pretty
graphic and apparently it was witnessed by someone else because
there were two therapists involved, and there are other reports

(02:17):
that she had spoken immediately afterwards with up to four
other people at this salon at Ojas in Pikesville, and
she said that she eventually had to leave the room
she felt nauseous. Now she's pregnant. This is not something
that she is looking for. How you can attack her,

(02:38):
I don't know. I don't get that.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
So the amount of women that are are so anti
woman about this is wild to me.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
I think they had to get rid of Justin Tucker, like, well,
you know, here's the thing.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Know this, the Ravens don't make a decision unless they
investigated it, and they had gone through investigation themselves for
behind the you know, closed doors for weeks and then months.
This thing has been going on since the beginning of January,
I mean a long time. Yeah, the Banner first released
the story back in January.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
They are saying a lot of people the comments are
I wish they would have waited for the NFL to
release their investigation.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
But come on, guys, like, apparently they already know. We know,
and you would think that the Ravens have done their
due diligence now, just like they say, Mike Green is
going to be all right, They're looking into these things.
This is not just something when you're in a billion
dollar you know, league and an owner that's got a
lot of money involved. You know, you gotta know that

(03:42):
they're investigating, and it's it's a sad day from the
standpoint of a guy's career which just went down. The
toilet choices were made though, Yeah, but like I said,
we're human. We make mistakes. No, we are human and
we all fail. But you know what he did, if
all the allegations are true, is unexcusable. Right, It's just unexcusable.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic. Oh right, we
are stopping going BNW Parkway south bound between.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
Ninety three point one WPOC. Good morning, Thanks for waking
up with Michael J. And back and Michael J's Music.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
City Minute in sixty seconds. You gon't know like you
own music road.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
But first sin speaking of Parker McCollum, who's going to
be playing at Pier six Pavilion coming up in September.
That is going to be another beautiful night on the
water in Baltimore. Yeah, to witness country music and if
for whatever reason the weather gets bunky, you got the tent. Yeah,
you know at Pier six is awesome. It's such a
good place to go.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Chill and Amy from dundalk is going to the show.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
I didn't even know what the thinkers are for when
you said the ticket when it was open, I just
started dialing. Well, you're smart at the right moment.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
And now that you know, are you even more happy?

Speaker 3 (05:04):
I'm needed more at well, have a great time at
Parker McCollum. Now, speaking of country stars, Yeah, I'm gonna
give you a question. You can think about it while
we talk about a story here. Which country star do
you think just lost twenty pounds in the last two weeks?
Think about that while we hear from Keith Urban, who's
talking about his tour. Now he's getting ready for a

(05:26):
big concert tour this summer.

Speaker 5 (05:28):
We've got a whole new production, including a lot of
video wolves that are moving all around the stage. Wow,
various things. Not every venue lets us, you know, do
everything that we can do in some other places. But
I think we've put together a really good looking stage,
a great looking visual experience for everybody.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
Cent a matter of where you're sitting, it's gonna be good. Well,
I'll be way back in the back, you know. Anyway,
Keith Urban's going to be a lot of fun. Now,
who is the country star who's lost twenty pounds in
the last few weeks. Everybody's thinking jelly roll right, No.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
Caine Brown, Oh, Caine Brown, and Kane says.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
After listen to this real quick, after my fast and
eating better for the last two to three weeks, he
had absolutely no sugar or gluten. Kane Brown says, I
went from two hundred and five pounds to one hundred
and eighty. Getting her ripped is what he says.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
So ninety three point one WPOC traffic.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
All right, we are It looks like we have an
accident on NYA fifteen northbound at Jefferson Pike. Things are
stopping and go back to Eisenhower Highway ninety five southbound
is rough in two spots, one between exit forty seven
and exit forty three because of an accident earlier, and
then again beat right before the Fort McHenry Tunnel. The

(06:45):
disabled vehicle has the right lane blocked there. It looks
like a lot of congestion on the roads right now,
so'll be safe. Tell me two twos, Michael and Bethany.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
So, what is that one thing for you that you
feel I guess the most unappreciated as a mom.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Yeah, eight hundred U S ninety three me personally, Yeah,
I'm curious.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Hmmm. I think because for anybody who doesn't know, give
the ages. Okay, I have an eighteen year old girl
and a fourteen year old boy.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Okay, they are they mature enough that they're starting to
pay attention to No?

Speaker 1 (07:28):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 6 (07:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
I think, well, teenagers is a tough.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Right, let me tell you tough. Run from there with you,
and we've got someone on the telephone line. What about you?

Speaker 7 (07:40):
I would say, it's coming home after working a full
day and and having his cook dinner and provide for
the kids, to make sure everyone and the husband to
make sure everyone is sad and happy before getting ready
for the next day.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Right, yeah, I want everyone to think about their mom
and all the sacrifice that they make. And I want
to talk about Harford Family House. They are going to
be our special salute today at eight thirty Harford Family.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
House because every day this week, in honor of Mother's Day,
we are honoring a local charity that yes moms, and.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
We want to make you feel better if you're a
mom who feels that you know your kids aren't really
either old enough or mature enough to recognize you know
your dedication, your sleepless nights, you know your hard work.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Sometimes you don't get appreciated by the people who are
closest to you. Sometimes they'll do something nice like take
you a brunch or get you a card, that kind
of thing, but you still don't see.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
You don't feel seen, you don't feel heard.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
No.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
Like now, on the other hand, here's the other side
of this discussion, just real quick.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Oh great, can't wait to hear it.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Well, as a parent, should we really be putting the
responsibility of our happiness on our kids?

Speaker 8 (08:56):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (08:56):
No, I think your partner needs to take to step
up on this one and.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Just say, hey, you're doing a great job as a mom. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
I don't want to hear the whole well you're not
my mom, because.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
It's a lot to lay on kids though, but I
don't really say that well.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
And also Mother's Day in general is just a lot
of pressure for everybody, right.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
And is this being propped up by you know, the
businesses that make money off of it?

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (09:20):
And no.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
I mean, of course all of the holidays have become
consumer holidays. But I don't think there's anything wrong with
taking one day out of the whole.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Year to be like, I see you, I see how
much you do.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
This Sunday, the eleventh Mother's Day, and as a dad,
I do feel that Mother's Day gets more attention than
Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
We won't go there right now, okay, but when the
fathers all start doing as much as mothers, then they
can revalue it.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
I just poked the bear text or call we want
to hear from you. We grew up down by the
railroad track, shooting babies and old beer.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Can it's mom.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Week here at ninety three point one WPOC Can we
proclaim that now with Mother's Day on Sunday? So the
top five things that chat gpt says you can do
for your mom to show her that you love her.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Five Say it out loud.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Just saying I love you and I appreciate everything that
you do can hit harder than anything material. Four Make
something personal, a photo album, a playlist of songs that
remind you of her, or a video message. Three do
something that always do something she always does for others,

(10:42):
whether it's cooking, organizing, taking care of a chore, or
something like that. You following these.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
These sound like a machine designed them well.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Chat GPT number two, spend time with her, plan something
just for the two of you. And the number one
thing you can do to show your mom that you
love her for Mother's Day, according to chat GPT, write
her a letter, not just a card, but a real
hand hand Do people still now to do handwritten letters?

Speaker 1 (11:11):
We don't write anymore. Have chat Gypt write it for you?

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Yes? But anyway, let her know you love her because
it's Mother's Day this weekend.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Here's some things that you might not know your mom does. Okay,
Taxi service, master planner, planning vacations, birthday parties, holiday traditions,
emotional architect. She's, you know, taking care of the emotions
of the family. Life skill instructor. Who taught you how
to bake? Who taught you how to cook? Health guardian?

(11:38):
Who else is making sure everybody gets enough vegetables? Financial wizard?
Is mom really the one pulling the purse.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Strings in your house?

Speaker 5 (11:46):
Right?

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Crisis manager? When something goes wrong?

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Who do you call?

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Mom?

Speaker 1 (11:51):
So think about it, guys, that's.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
What it's all about this week. Just remember ah you
around my mind. I can't count that the times you
made me feel like them play me like a ninety

(12:15):
three point one WDPOC. There's a song we can set
out to moms tough people.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Moms are tough. Yes, somebody. We got a few good
texts here I want to give you.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Someone said, my ninety two year old mom passed away
a few weeks ago, and I've been kind of in
a physical and mental decline for about a year. I
think one thing that I'm realizing I'm going to miss
is the ability to ask her about the past. So
please tell your listeners to ask all the questions, uh,
and get all the information before it's too it's too late.

(12:44):
And then someone else said, hey, I don't think our
children completely understand the time and sacrifices we as moms make.
Until they go off and have households of their own,
they can truly understand all the time and effort. She
goes on to say that her girls are now grown
and they appreciate her right, and I think that's really nice.
And then also earlier we talked about this being our

(13:05):
anniversary of four months, four months, four months, Mary says, Hey,
it's uh, it's Mary here.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
I have to admit I didn't really like you guys
at the beginning.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Oh cool, but now I love you and you make
me laugh and bring a smile to my face every morning.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Well that's sweet, Thank you, Mary, And I would love
to hear from all the people who don't like us. No,
it's it's okay. We can deal with it. Listen, that's
what makes us all individuals. Everybody's got an opinion and
we welcome everyone that's right. And you know, if there's
something that we're doing that is making your skin crawl,
you know, giving you the ick, yeah, we want to

(13:42):
know about it. I mean, that's the only way we
can get better. And you know, if you're your buddies
in the morning, you're only brave enough to text us
seven seven ninety six two begin your message out your hey.
But if you've really got cojones, you can call us
eight hundred three two one thirty six ninety three all right,

Marine Corps up to help you. Right.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
Well, I know you guys have a little of rivalry
uhrah between the Marines and the Army, but you're all
tough as hack.

ninety three point one w POC ninety three point one.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
W p O C. No, Hey, Michael, j and Bethany
are up and at them and Bethany, this has got
to be not only the biggest story in Baltimore, but
one of the biggest stories in the world, because everybody
he lives vicariously through NFL football, right, don't we all? So,
as you probably have heard, the Ravens released veteran kicker

(17:11):
Justin Tucker. Did you see Eric Dacosta's announcement, He said,
sometimes football decisions are incredibly difficult, and this is one
of those instances. DaCosta said, considering our current roster, we've
made the tough decision to release Justin Tucker.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
And you say, okay, great, right, thank you.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
Well, yesterday this broke around I'm thinking around five, five
fifteen or whatever. Yeah, Lauren, who works in our office.
I was in the studio down the hallway. She comes in.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
She's like emergency.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
I'm like, what's going on because I was doing some
other stuff. She's like, they just cut Justin. I'm like, oh, well,
it's not really surprise, but yeah, that's big news. So
I put a little mention up on Facebook to kind
of gauge And I didn't even ask for opinions, but
everybody's volunteering them. You're kidding on Facebook, Yeah, Jerry says,

(18:12):
I agree with you, Michael j It is sad, but
it had to be done. I think he's definitely going
to be suspended by the NFL as well.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
I wondered about that.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
I wondered if like another team would pick him up,
because I mean, he still is the most decorated buyer.
He had a sucky season last year.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Well, yeah, he had a lot in his mind. Yeah,
he'd hinty three point one w POC traffic. You can
always Texas.

I've got I'm just captivated. I've got to you know.

What I mean, got a type? And why why is
Megan margle uh being annoying?

Speaker 3 (19:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Well because her show where she like pretends she's really
good at everything. Imperfect right, is irritating.

Speaker 3 (19:13):

the loop of entertainment and pop culture and the things
we shouldn't care about, but somehow we really do. Not annoying,
not annoying perfect Megan Markles.

an accident.

Speaker 3 (19:54):

Well, no, she's not hurt, but you know, there's an
investig I know, I just I don't love it. The

a lot. Let me go out and travel much and
sing these old songs I've been writing all these years.

Speaker 2 (23:49):

to do this or are you like totally like intimidated, Like,

Speaker 6 (23:59):
No, it's you know, it's never been you know.

Speaker 4 (24:02):
All I can do is play and sing like I
play and sing and show people a good time, and
it's up to them to respond. I can't control it,
so Leam, you just kind of take what you get
and go on.

Speaker 1 (24:12):

Speaker 6 (24:14):
You're kind of and you got to the world.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
Two really big fans here between me and Bethany. I mean,
I have rocked your songs on country radio for the
last thirty years, and uh oh man, I go through
your catalog vents and it's just one song is better
than the next. Oh my gosh. I mean I don't
even have to hear you sing. I just hear the
beginning of those songs and they get excited, you know.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
What I mean.

Speaker 6 (24:40):
We're gonna do a bunch of those, So you're gonna
have a good.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
Night, all right. I can't wait.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
So let me ask you a couple of stupid questions.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
You are, obviously, I mean, you're a country star, but
beyond all that. Beyond playing with the Eagles and all that,
it seems to me that you have a relationship with
a guitar that goes back to the beginning, right, Yeah,
I mean.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
I've been playing a guitar my whole life, you know.
I can't I can't say that I started when I
was two or three, or six or nine or any
of that. But my mom has a picture of me
as probably a under two years old sleeping face down
on a on a sofa with my arm around a guitar.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
N that is so cute.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
We got to play a song from E Vince, so
we can bring back a memory or two and get
you ready for the show at the Lyric.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
It's gonna be great with Vince Gill. She was standing
at the front.

Speaker 2 (25:36):

Wallen of the Year twenty twenty five, back to back,

with Vince. Go ahead, Bethany, you had a question. Okay,
I want to gush on your wife.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
For a minute.

Speaker 6 (26:05):
Because good move.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
I know.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
I know when I was little baby Bethany, I used
to think I was going to be a singer. And
I went into those one of those really dorky recording studios,
like at a fair, do you know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 1 (26:19):
And I sang one of her songs, and I thought
I was a rock star.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
You were, Yeah, I think I think I was now
I listen, it's so cringey.

Speaker 6 (26:31):
A bunch of years ago, Alison Kraus and I did that.

Speaker 8 (26:34):
You did?

Speaker 1 (26:35):
Oh wow, I bet that sounded good. Actually we.

Speaker 6 (26:41):
Tried to sing bad on purpose.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
That's really funny.

Speaker 3 (26:45):

Alison Grouse.
