Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, killing Nash, Good morning, good morning. It's tomorrow show today.
Thank god, tomorrow's Friday. Ready for the weekend, Ready for March.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
It's going to be awesome. I think that the weather
is looking pretty good for the weekend for the most part,
So a lot to look forward to. I haven't read
my email from Mallory.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
We got a lot of baseball kicking off tomorrow night
of the upstate. Then it goes to Greenville that it
comes here for Sunday Mardi Gras Festival, Rosewood area city
roots over there by the airport Saturday. Got the usually
a lot of golf carts involved in that parade.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Okay, Well, Mallory has confirmed that we can do Chili
Cookoff tickets tomorrow again. Okay, good So thank you Mallory
for double clicks, double clicks, double ticks, and if you
want the answer to win, not only the Chili Cookoff
tickets for Sunday, but the Old Dominion concert tickets for
June fifth at the Credit Won Stadium in Charleston, South Carolina.
(00:57):
The word is perfidious as a liar, being deceitful, being deceitful, perfidious.
Oh you're being perfidious, right, now you're hiding your true emotions. Perfidious.
If you know that word tomorrow morning and are the
right number caller, you got tickets to the June fifth
(01:17):
Credit One Stadium. This is the kickoff to the whole
How good is that world tour? Not only Old Dominion,
Ernest and Red Ferriner there as well, but you also
double click for the double ticks get the chili kickoff
for Sunday. A lot going on with that.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
That was the original working title for the last Jelly
Roll hit record. Oh really, but it's hard to work
with with the annunciations and then the rhyming, so they
went with liar, you.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Said you're going to miss this, but you're perfidious. Yeah,
by the way, this is to me, you're going to
be must see TV. John Stewart and Elon Musk apparently
went back and forth on Twitter, and John Stewart as
if you probably know is a left wing guy. Elon
(02:03):
Musk was a left wing guy who did vote for
Joe Biden in twenty twenty, but he is a fiscal
conservative and I guess. On Monday's show, John Stewart was
very upset about some of the stuff that Doze has
been cutting, and Stuart said, why don't we just take
three billion in subsidies that we're currently giving to the
(02:25):
oils and gas companies and turn those billions back into
the federal taxpayers. And Elon Musk had not a bad idea.
But if you heard Elon Musk yesterday at the White House,
he said his job currently, which to me is unbelievable.
They have to cut a trillion dollars between now in September.
He says, that means every day we have to find
(02:46):
another four billion dollars in savings every day, seven days
a week from now till the end of September. Every
day we got to wake up and say where do
we cut four billion dollars from? That's quite the So
the three billion in savings right there, that's all most
one day's work to John almost but he John Stewart
has challenged them to come on. Elon says, I'd be delighted.
So it looks like maybe next week you're going to
(03:08):
get a John Stewart Elon Musk. Elon must say the
only requirements are there can be no editing. So as
long as there's no editing, right, And they said, we
agree to that. So that that's going to be must
see TV. Everybody'd be talking about that. Also, actors, we're
all talking about Gene Hackman today. Gene Hackman, I'm sure
made a ton of dough, but nothing like today's actors.
(03:32):
Today's actors are so overpaid it's unbelievable. So somebody went
and looked at the Oscar nominees for this year and
found out if you look at what their contract for
their movie was, and in exchange, how much screen time. Now,
obviously this is not how much work they did, because
you could have to do the same scene one hundred
(03:52):
times before they the director says, that's a take, but
this is how much screen time they had. And then
broke get down by the by how much did you
get paid per minute of screen time? Okay, coming in
last place, last place, Ryan Gosling was paid three hundred thousand,
two hundred and fifty dollars for every minute he was
(04:15):
in La La Land. Wow, that's last place. Wow, you
can now. Bradley Cooper apparently got two of the top five,
including number one, so he got four hundred and nineteen
thousand and thirty dollars for every minute that he's in
A Star is born. But he also got the number
(04:35):
one slot, five hundred ninety one thousand, eight hundred and
fifty six dollars a minute for his and it's for
each minute, and he was in the movie for eighty
four minutes American Sniper. He's the highest paid guy in Hollywood.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
A great movie, a lot of frigging.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Basically six hundred thousand dollars a minute.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, And if you watch a lot of those things
like Sally Low's watched TCM and stuff like that, you
realize he's go us a contract with the actual production company.
So you had an MGM contract and you would show
up for work pretty much nine to five, and you
would work for whatever your salary was, and that was
not nearly obviously what it was now, not even at
today's dollars. But you had basically a nine to five
(05:17):
job and you did whatever movie they told you to.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Do, which I mean was a I shouldn't make it
seem as if they weren't getting incredible salaries because they
were for the times, and you know, maybe I should
try to figure that out based on like today's dollars,
how they did, because like I remember reading some of
these people, you know, they were getting paid like twenty
(05:40):
thousand a week or something, which is an unbelievable amount.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Of the day. Some of them were.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Yes, Let's see William Powell. He was one of my
favorite actors. Have you ever seen William Powell and The
Thin Man? And let's see what William Powell contract was for?
Because he was He was one of those MGM guys,
wasn't he. I remember he ended up leaving Hollywood near
the after when he was pretty I don't want to
say he was young, but he was like fifty five
(06:08):
or something when he retired from Hollywood and said he
needed to spend more time with his wife. And I
think he actually became a real estate agent if I
remember right. Interesting, are you kidding me, William Powell? No,
this is a different wayam Powell had to have been. Yeah, okay,
that's a different way in Powell. So that William Powell
(06:28):
had a contract to play baseball with the Saint Louis
Cardinals back in like the nineteen sixties, Uh huh. That
would have been amazing. It was like, wait a second,
just making like three fifty a week. He was also
a baseball player. Let's see, so he was paid William
Powell agreed to lower his contract during the depression. So
(06:52):
he was making six thousand a week, he lowered it
to four thousand a week during the depression. So what
was four though thousand dollars and we'll say nineteen thirty
five money? What do you think that? What is that
like in today's dollars? Four thousand dollars in nineteen thirty five,
(07:13):
because that's pretty much the height of the depression, right,
nineteen thirty five, that would have been roughly ninety two thousand,
seven hundred and fifty dollars. Wow, So he was making
close to one hundred grand a week. Yes, so one
hundred grand a week, you're no, I mean again, Bradley
Cooper made six hundred grand a minute a minute. So
(07:40):
at a movie a star is bored. Well this was Sniper.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Oh Sniper. Sorry, yeah, but for Sniper was worth it.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
But if you think about if he was making one
hundred grand a week in today's dollars, if he worked
the entire well, what's going to have work fifty weeks? Right,
We're not gonna make him work fifty two. He's gonna
get a little.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
He gets Christmas off a week in July.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, he can take a whole time off, but fifty weeks,
that's what is that at one hundred grand. So if
he worked ten weeks, that's a million dollars. So he
would have made five million dollars in today's money. That's
what William Powell would have made. Not I mean, that's
a lot of money. I don't want to diminish they amount.
(08:23):
But like Bradley Cooper got thirty eight million dollars for
his last movie, Yes So, and that didn't take him
a whole year to make. That took him like six weeks.
Yes So, today's actors off the charts and the amounts
of money they're getting paid, kind of like NBA guys
and just pro athletes in general. I don't know why
(08:44):
I would tell you that story other than to just
make ourselves jealous that we don't make that. Jamie Johnson
was on a podcast with Clint Black the other day
and interesting question, when you die and get to heaven,
who would you like to do a duet with? Oh,
that's the question for Jamie Johnson. Jamie Johnson said, I
(09:05):
guess he said Elvis. Jamie Johnson said, well, first, I'm
gonna have to look around and see who made it
and who didn't might be surprised, which is a good,
good answer. But then he said, I like this, He said,
I don't know that there's one person I'd like to
sing with. I'd like to join a heavenly choir. That's
probably the sweetest sound you'll ever hear is an entire
(09:26):
congregation in Unison. I heard a preacher say that growing up,
that his favorite voice of all was the whole church
singing together. And I've thought about that a lot. And
there is no singer in the world that sounds as
good as an entire church singing the praise of Jesus.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
That's a great answer, not the one you want, not
the one I was looking for. That's a great answer
you wanted. Johnny Cash or June Carter Cash. Oh, he's
gonna go with it. He's gonna go.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Well, you know he's gonna make Johnny upset. You picked
June over me.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
He could sing with his first wife. Well, they wow,
I said that out loud.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
You go sing with your first wife. And we've got
a morning rush of regular Jonathan, and we have problems.
You can always email us your problems. Rush at ninety
seven five w SOS dot com Nash at ninety seven
five w SOS dot com. The question that this lady
has is basically, how much money do you give your
(10:28):
college freshman eighteen year old maybe nineteen years old college
freshmen when they go away on like a spring break vacation,
so they're not really working because they're in college, that's
their job. How much money do you give that kid
or do I shouldn't even say it a kid, because
I hate it when people call college people kids. They're
young adults, so we should just drop the young part
(10:51):
and say adults. How much do you give that adult?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
I have contemplated this because I have funded these trips before,
and the only thing you can do is about I
can go, Okay, I am in Fort Larderdew, so I'm
gonna need money today to do what Obviously you're gonna
need to eat three times, preferably probably only twice. So
he's gonna pocket some of that or buy some something
(11:15):
I wouldn't have authorized. There's no I think you just
had to sit down to figure out in Fort Larderdale,
this lunch's gonna cost you, Bobby thirty bucks.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Well, she said, I gave my daughter one hundred dollars
a day for the vacation, and she called me halfway
through it and said it was pretty much all gone,
Oh my gosh, And I told her she was gonna
have to figure it out. Yeah, but I do have
some regrets about this. And some of the other parents
were like, it's spring break. Can't you just send her
(11:46):
a couple hundred more dollars to get her through.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
That's a good question to me. One hundred bucks a day.
They're not gonna eat breakfast, going to sleep until one,
They're gonna have a late lunch, They're gonna have to
have dinner. Now, liquor we buy in. Here's the question.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Well, I mean what I imagine they charge cover charges to
get into most of these places nowadays, that's probably twenty
bucks just to get in, isn't it. I mean, I
haven't been to a bar on a beach in thirty years. Yeah,
but when I used to go, it was like ten,
So I imagine it's at least twenty not to get in.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
This is a good question. How do you judge it?
How do you what would you do? And you don't
want it to be down there and not have money,
That's what Sally would say, you're going to send them
down there without an extra thousand in case something happens.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
You know how dangerous it is because now they're gonna
what Lee's going to start prostituting.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Himself exactly what they need some you know, they need
money in case something on an emergency should arise.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
He's going full basketball diaries like Leonardo DiCaprio in the
men's room.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I guess it would be easier now because of since
he was that spring break or whatever, you actually gave
him cash, although I think I was already transferring money
to his card so I could kind of like keep
him restrained. Hen I need some more money. You just
got there yesterday.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
T shirts are amazingly expensive.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
All right, I'll transfer some money in for lunch and
then think about it. Okay, that's good. You can only
get a salad. That's all you get for lunch is
one salad. That's I'll budget twelve.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Dollars for that.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
That's good. That's good. That's good.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
All right, we got those and others. All but wait,
we did mention the old Dominion concert tickets, right, yeah, yeah,
we talked about that, all.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Right, so we're gonna do the what you're talking about?
Your aady got the answer. You know if you double
click Mallories already told you get extra tickets. Yes, we
have more tickets for the chili cook off that I'll
be coming up tomorrow morning at six thirty. What else
is going on in your neighborhood? What youre getting ready
for for spring? There are a lot of great activities
now that it is good, and we're going to cram
them all in together here between March first and say,
(13:52):
middle of June, because by middle of June it's too
damn hot unless you're gonna do indoor activity.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
I thought you loved it when it was hot.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I do, but people just you know, outdoor activities seem
to weighing off in the hot time of the year.
July and August, we don't have as many outdoors celebrations.
So we're gonna cram them all in. It's like your
calendar is gonna be full. When do the mosquitoes come back?
That's what I They'll be here mid May. Where are
they right now? Can we sneak attack them? They are
(14:22):
they sleeping in a pond or something? Can we you know?
Now I need to do some more research on that
because I know that the mosquitoes lay eggs, and someone
had told me that they actually go into like a hibernation,
That's what I would think, and then they hatch in
the spring. Yeah, so I don't know, seems like we
would come up with a way without ruining the earth
(14:43):
that we would have already attacked them while they were
in their stagnant waters.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah, that's why people say you can't have like a
bucket outside where you get the water. The rain water
fills up and that's where all the mosquito eggs are.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
And then that's why you gotta be careful when you
go to the beach. If you get a creekside rental property,
that's gonna have a lot of mosquitoes.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
The creeks don't flow well.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
They but there's a lot of area there near the
creek where they could mosquitoes could just thrive. And you
don't get the wind off the ocean, so they don't
have the wind challenge.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Do how many mosquitoes do you think the birds eat?
Because I've heard that's the reason we can't kill the
mosquitos off is because the birds need them to eat.
I mean, can't we cut I mean, I go to
the store, I do my part to feed the dang birds.
Can I do a swap out where we have no
more mosquitoes and we just all agree to go buy
some bird food.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Maybe you're the problem. You're feeding the birds. You got
to keep them hungry, So the mosquitoes, you're the damn reason.
All right, If you have any any type of information
to contribute to that, that'd be great.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
This deep thoughts conversation we're having.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Tomorrow Deep thoughts Mosquitoes. Let's go to caller one. What
do you say right now? Also, what's happened in your neighborhood?
We should talking about what kind of opportunities where? We
got a big celebration coming down in Camden Saturday. We do, yeah,
the the ninth annual Camden Irish Festival celebration.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
How do they celebrate the Irish Festival at Camden.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
In South Carolina's Old Inlets city. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
And they do that what two weeks before Saint Patrick's Day?
Speaker 1 (16:19):
They're doing it this Saturday? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
And because I know, I saw I got an email
last night from our friend Jamie who used to work here,
telling me to get ready. I guess is it today.
The five points thing is.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Happening tonight at five is when they die the Fountain
Green kids.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yes, you wanted me to come down to that. I
will not be there because I like to go to bed,
so I try to be home by five thirty.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Huh. It's the kids a bit. It's just a lot
of fun because they give them the cups to die,
they go dump it in. They all dump it in there. Well,
Dad sits in the bar drinking beer.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Are we drinking green beer already?
Speaker 1 (16:56):
They don't have the green beer out already. I don't
think I don't drink beer in a ring bottle.
