Speaker 4 (03:06):
Row all right, remember the song we were playing from
John Morgan and Jason al Dean. I can play a
little snippet of it if that would help help bring
it back anyway. You know, I think we should play
it while we check in with him, because I got
John Morgan on the phone this morning. Now, he has
this big hit that he sings with Jason Aldean. It

(03:26):
went all the way to number one, and I wanted
to ask John John come on the air with me.
I heard that this song would not have happened if
not for an uber driver.

Speaker 1 (03:38):

So when I first started coming to town, I was
making trips down. This was like twenty nineteen ish.

one night and Scott tacks us up in an uber
get to chatting. You know, it's just a nice guy.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Whatever.

Speaker 7 (03:54):
So this he'd written some songs like in the early
two thousands, and it was a short little conversation, right,
we had, you know, talk, then he dropped us off
and didn't think an.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Of the thing of it. Well, fast forward about a year.

Speaker 7 (04:06):
I had taken up a part time gig working at
the at the mall over here in Nashville, and somebody
walks in and look very familiar and I was just like, man,
I know this guy from somewhere. So I started talking
to him and it turns out he was the uber
driver from a year earlier who just randomly came into
my store, kind of hit it off again and started
started writing songs together, and he had some of his

(04:27):
buddies help us finish an idea that we had started.
And those buddies ended up being Jason Audine's band aids.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Isn't that crazy? It's just a small world, Yeah, he
really is. Because of an uber driver. We've got a
number one country song to play. And how many people

jobs sometimes, like whether it's like a lift or an.

Speaker 1 (06:27):

Speaker 2 (06:29):
They have like Amazon Flex and like all this that

Ninety three point one w POC Michael, Jane Bethany, thank
you for spending a few minutes with us this morning.
We've been talking about side hustles, and jobs and shifts.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
I love this little slice into everyone's life, So thank
you so much for playing along with us here. I'm

firefighter in Harford County.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Thank you, Yeah, thank you, Joe.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
Someone says, my side hustle's playing music. It pays for
all the stuff my kids want. Somebody else said, seven
days a month from midnight to eight am, I represent
people who get arrested and go before a commissioner for bail.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Wow. Then I do my day job. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
So he's dealing with DUI and everything coming in sham
and says, I'm a kindergarten teacher in server. Shout out
to all the teachers like myself during teacher appreciation Week.
Work two jobs because teaching alone doesn't pay the bill.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
That is not right either. Teachers need to be making
more money.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
And then, do you know who else we heard from
this morning? No one of the Orioles hot dog racers.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Are you kidding me? That's their side Hustle. How cool

actually putting the tracks down?

Speaker 5 (08:46):
Resident engineer?

Yes?

Speaker 5 (08:47):
What I've always focused on is making sure.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
That the system is built is a good, safe sound
system for the public.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
So you're you're dealing with it from soup to nuts.
In other words, you deal with the track and making
sure it's put to other correctly. What is the most
important thing that you need to know in your job?

Speaker 7 (09:04):
Unlike freight railroad, the commodities you're caring are human beings, right.

Speaker 6 (09:09):
It could be it could be somebody's child, you know,
and or their grandmother, and I want to make sure
that just like everybody else.

(09:44):
one w p O C.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Now try all.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
Right, Michael J and bethany who can visually picture right
now the Pendry in Fell's Point, the hotel right you
got you got that really beautiful Pendry Hotel in Baltimore
in Fell's Point. Right across the street, there are a
number of restaurants, my favorite place to get oysters, my
favorite place to get drinks, you know, up and down

(10:10):
that street. Well, the city about a couple of weeks
ago had police officers walking into these restaurants at ten
o'clock at night saying, and this is on a Friday
or Saturday.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Saying, well, we're towing.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Now.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
If anybody's parked right out in front, got to move
your car, it's.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Going to be towed.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
They had overnight parking restrictions that started at tend until
three am, and they were making people at the local
bars go leave.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
So what do you think the owners of those bars
had to decide. I'd be ticked off. They were be owed.
I take a lot of money between ten and two. Yeah,
They're like, you're trying to put us out of business.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
So when I saw that, I mean my my skin
was like chilled because I'm like, I'm thinking, these guys
are trying to make a living, you know, in the
cities not doing them any favors. Now, well, fortunately somebody
came to their senses. The city is the short lived
overnight parking restrictions and Fell's point after a whole lot
of pushback. I mean, it's a safety issue for the

(11:07):
folks that are working in these restaurants and they got
to walk back to the.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Car parks far away because it's not safe.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
Yeah, because they're leaving the bar at two in the
morning and they got cash on them and they don't
want to get shot. And then on top of it,
their customers want to park out front.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
But so they're gonna lift the restrictions. That's what they say.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
I you know, I like that because that means that
like somebody's listening. So I guess that's I guess there's
a silver line. Shout out may Or Scott ninety.

when they're freaked out in an er situation. That is
such a difficult spot because you're trying to calm, you're
trying to triage, you're trying to find out what you
can do to make a difference. You're dealing with emotions
that are all over the place. You got people who

(18:15):
are afraid for their life, and then you got their
family members and them climbing all over you.

So here's what we've learned so far today. We've had
quite a busy show already. We have learned that we
love our military. Military Appreciation months. Keep those salutes coming
on the talk pack.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
We have learned. It's also time to salute.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
Our nurses and our teachers and all of those folks
that are hardworking. And if that's you, I really want
you to listen up to this story. If you're a parent,
I want you to listen up to this story because
we really want to get your take on this. There's
a very emotional and tragic story that has happened in

(19:51):
northern Virginia this past week. So at three am this
past Saturday morning, in other words, late Friday. It was
the same day, ironically that Massaponics High School was going
to have their prom. A senior at the high school
is now dead. He was fatally shot by a homeowner.

(20:15):
The student's name is Michael Bosworth, Junior, and it happened
on a street called Mackenzie Lane in Spotsylvania County down
in Virginia.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
So here's what happened, and well, let me just give
the facts. The homeowner, who.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
Turned out to be a twenty seven year old man,
says that Bosworth and two other teenagers were trying to
break into his home. It's three in the morning, Saturday morning.
Apparently maybe he was sleep. I don't know if the
gun that he had was registered. There's a lot of
questions still remaining. Was he drunk or high or what

(20:54):
is exactly his condition was, who knows, don't know, don't
know if he was sound asleep. All I know is
this guy was at home at three in the morning
and he thinks his house is being broken into. However,
these kids turns out we're just trying to record a
TikTok video. One of the other teens who was grazed

(21:16):
by the bullet. So you've got Michael Bosworth who was killed.
You got another team, Bethany here, who was grazed by bullet.
He told detectives that they weren't trying to steal anything.
They were recording ding dong ditch pranks for TikTok, where
they'd run up, ring the doorbell and then run.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Away at three o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Yes, a detective track down the third team who was
not shot. That team gave the same account and offered
his phone and said, hey, take my phone, look at
the video because we did the same thing earlier in
the night. The Spotsylvania County Sheriff's Office was looking into
the story. This was earlier yesterday, and then the Commonwealth

(21:59):
to turn. He was looking in to the evidence to
determine if charges were appropriate, you know, if the homeowner
should be charged or if.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
It was justifiable homicide. It is so tragic.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Bosworth, who's a senior at Massaponics High, played lacrosse football
and wrestled. His stepfather, said their family is devastated and heartbroken.
Then later in the day yesterday, charges were filed against
the twenty seven year old homeowner with second degree murder.
So that's where it stands. You got a homeowner who

(22:34):
shot when he claims they were breaking in. They say,
ding dong, ditch. You got a dead kid, you got
another one that was shot, you got evidence.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Oh my god, what a mess. Yeah, this is not
a great situation. Well, I wanted to bring it up because,
a it's just so tragical. It's really sad. It's really
sad that this happened.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
So, but here's what's going on. Yeah, it's graduation. See,
and I know even in my neighborhood, you got a
lot of I got a lot of kids in my
neighborhood go to the schools and they all have their parties.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
I worry about drunk driving. That's my concern.

Speaker 4 (23:10):
Yeah, you know, but then you got the kids with
the TikTok that are like doing the videos. Now everybody's
trying to be viral. Everybody wants to be their fifteen seconds.
And I think about a homeowner, you know, who knows
what state of mind someone's in at three in the morning,
and someone's you know, Jimmy in your front door, right,
you don't know what their intent is. You don't shoot

(23:30):
through your front door though, No, I gotta carry permit.
I mean, I do know this much. You better make
damn sure that somebody's really threatening your life inside your
house right when you go shooting, you know what I mean.
That's lethal power and you got to anyway. It's just,
oh my gosh, it's so tragic all the way around, all.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
The way around bad. Like I sort of feel like
in this time in our lives, don't you just assume

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
