Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killy Nash, Hello Jonathan Tomorrow Show Today Tuesday the nineteenth,
getting closer to Memorial Day weekend. I know, like you said,
some people may already have started it. Who knows. These
people like to get out early.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
We're talking about the Michael Jackson movie earlier this weekend,
earlier today on Today's Monday broadcast. This weekend, We've got
a brand new D Day movie coming out. Really yeah,
I'm interested in seeing that one. There's several movies I'm
going back to the theaters, which is really strange because
we haven't been back to the theaters in a long time. Yeah,

(00:35):
that's true. There's a couple of them I want to see.
That's another one.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Well, that's good that Hollywood's making some movies that people
want to see.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
I guess yeah. And I want to see it on
the big screen, kind of like Michael Jackson. Although I
can tell you if you get the premium sound, it's
a little loud in there, but it really sounds good.
But if you want to go to D Day on
the big screen, I'd like to see it on the
big screen.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Do they have good special effects as that part?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
I would imagine it will be all right.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Only imagine, well, maybe people are going to the movies.
Maybe some people this memorial. They we're going to want
to go see Willie Nelson. He'll be down at the
Firefly Distillery of North Charleston, and we're giving away a
four pack of tickets. Tomorrow morning at six thirty. The
word of the day commen uded. Commanuded.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Oh, I know this common duty, so commonud of this.
When you you are you're enable, you're you're enable because
of someone else. It's like a uh, it wasn't a catalyst,
it was an active agent working against you. You were commanduded.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Like I couldn't get like Chevy Chase couldn't get left
around big bang.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, because of the other cars. I'm commons he was
common duded right there.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
It's not close on this one, but it's still a
great description. But communudd, I guess we would kind of
make it synonymous with pulverize. Really to reduce to minute particles.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
I really thought I knew this one.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
So common newted is reduced to minute particles. That's your
answer for tomorrow morning, six thirty. Get your Willie Nelson
concert tickets for free right here at ninety seventy five
WCS dot com.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Other than by the way, you'll get four of them.
I know you and three friends living it up, living
it up. Oh yeah, Sunday night. This will be saying
Bill and James in nineteen seventy six? Did I get
that right?

Speaker 1 (02:27):
I don't know about the year, but Bellan James is
definitely correct. Okay, that's a that's one of those classes.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
I haven't thought about that song forever.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Let's see other stories that we have up there. Well,
you know, at first off, if you just want to
look at Tom Brady, it's funny. He's trying to be
a runway model for the first time.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It's great and I don't know if that is a
tough gig. By the way, if you ever ever been
on the runway, I'm going.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
To blame the outfit that they put him in. He's
wearing Gucci black leather head to toe. It looks almost
like the Elvis Presley outfit from the Comeback Special. But
when you watch him walk, people are laughing, Oh no,
because he's walking like the tin Man.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
No, it doesn't.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
He looks well, he's trying, but it looks like it's all.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Too stiff, too tight.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
It's too tight, too stiff, so he's walking very funny.
So you can see that. Maybe you can tell us
about the time you tried to be a model. I
didn't even know that Angela wanted me to be a
model years ago, apparently in two thousand and six, before
I knew her. She and some other I don't even
know who these people are. I never did meet him.

(03:43):
They had a thing called Columbia Fashion Week, and they
had sent me multiple emails and a letter asking me
to model in their fashion show that year. I don't
know if I ever got him and I just ignored him,
or if I never even got him. But she was
like she mentioned it to me, like, you know, after
I got to know her a little bit, like yeah,

(04:05):
and you were so rude, like you didn't even get
back to us about being a model on our fashion show.
And I'm like, I don't think I would have ever
been up for that.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
I just need to do a show on was have
has it? What was it in the past where Jonathan
Because I had heard a similar story about me being
rude supposedly and I don't remember this. Jonathan was rude
to a listener and Kelly, now we found out, was
rude to the woman who ended up becoming eventually his wife.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
I played hard to get, that's what it was. Yeah,
that's the key, quite hard to get. I ignored your emails.
I'm not coming to your fashion show.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
I'm telling you runway modeling is not easy. Some people
are born Sally does it with grace. I cannot. I
mean I've done it. I never felt comfortable doing it.
I'm sure I looked uncomfortable, especially if it was a
dance number.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Not as uncomfortable as you did in the The Womanless
Beauty pageant.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
No, No, that's wow.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
And that was a cruise ship, so at that point
you might have been praying for an outbreak or whatever
that last cruise ship had where people just worse. Just
kill me dead here, lord, I don't need to be
a barn to.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
This filling high heels and blamed it on the fact
that the cruise ship was you know it was, it
was rocking back and forth.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
So you've heard the phrase this is like kind of
an insult now that people throw around on the internet.
Touch grass. It's a way of implying that somebody has
spent too much time indoors on their keyboard. They're not
grounded in reality. So that's the phrase touch grass. Well,
it turns out that a study of fifty thousand people

(05:45):
over fifty eight countries, the act of actually touching grass
makes you happier. Maybe not you because you've got some allergies,
but for most people, it physically makes you happy. Touch grass.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Okay, isn't that amazing. I'm surprised by that number. Yes, yeah,
if they seem to be divorced from it for so
long that they would not enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
And on top of it, it helps you feel restored,
It gives you energy, it quiets your mind. So if
you're looking for a way to do all of those things, yep,
today and it doesn't matter they say, if you're in
a city or in the forest. Okay, Like, so today

(06:34):
you're working downtown Columbia. Just walk outside and put your
hands on some grass. It's even better if you can
do it barefoot, but most people can't do it barefoot
in this sad.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
For firet beds first and then have a seat. Touch
some grass.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
It'll improve your day. Anybody else got secret tips on
how to make yourself instantly happier, you could share those
with us. Other things that you've got, let me, hang on,
I had one.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Here that people petting dogs or cats.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Well, they compared that eating ice cream was in that
The happiest thing you can do is touch grass. That
is the number one thing outside of human touch. So
physical touch with a someone.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
You love or grass.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Grass is the But yeah, if you're alone, the best
thing you can do to improve your mental health and
all that is to touch grass. Petting dogs is high
up there, Petting cats is up there. There's other things
you can do, but the best thing is what is
the easiest thing to do for most of us. Just
walk right out here on grays don't boulevard and run

(07:42):
your hands through the grass for a little bit. It
will quiet your mind and your endorphins will spy like it,
and we can do something here in South Carolina that
I would have thought we would have been higher on
this list. This is one of those lists. I'm happy
we're not that high. On an analysis from two thousand

(08:03):
and six to twenty twenty five, the deadliest states for
lightning oh number one easily Florida. Florida runs away with it.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
They have lightning on a clear blue day. I forgot
what you call that.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
About five people a year die in Florida annually from
lightning strikes. Texas is in second, Colorado third, Alabama fourth,
North Carolina fifth, Missouri six, Kansas seven, Georgia eight. So
we're kind of surrounded with North Carolina at five and

(08:40):
Georgia at eight, Illinois, Arkansas. We're all the way down
at number fifteen. So we and only five states in
America haven't had a death from lightning in the past
twenty years. Those are Alaska, Delaware, Hawaii, New Hampshire, and
washing So head north if you want to try to

(09:02):
avoid it or head out to the Pacific Ocean.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
I guess sure, but.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
I hate lightning storms. I'm one of those people who
I will admit that I do get afraid when I
see the lightning. You can feel the thunder and the lightning.
I'm like, that's very powerful and that feels like it
could kill us if it gets close to us. Although
I do get ticked off when they cancel baseball games
and they say now you gotta wait, Yeah, that ticks
me off, or football.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Or football and they'll cancel anything anymore because it's the
lightning indicators.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
This may be in relationship to our previous story about
touching grass the most worried people in history. Well, we've
been keeping this survey since nineteen forty. The most worried
people since nineteen forty are gen zs. The previous most
nervous generation was the Silent generation when they and that's

(09:56):
people born between nineteen twenty eight and nineteen forty five.
That was in the mid to late sixties when sixty
eight percent of them identified themselves as worried.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I believe it.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
They were worried about their future. They were worried about
the country. They were worried about Vietnam, they were worried
about civil unrest. They were worried about everything in the
late sixties. But now gen Z comes in at sixty
nine percent this year. WHOA, So you gen z ares
are the most nervous people in history.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
They're They're very nervous.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
They overthink everything. According to them, that's a great description.
That's their description. I overthink everything. They get nervous about
things to say, things that they didn't say, things that
they wish they had said. How is my text being read?

Speaker 2 (10:52):
People suck? I guess yourself all the time.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
That's yes, And they says that gen Z also the
most likely to replay awkward conversations. Eighty two percent of
gen z ers say that they will typically replay an
awkward conversation a minimum.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
Of ten times. My word, just drilling on it. Oh, man,
why did I say that? Let it go? Brother?

Speaker 1 (11:18):
They can't let it go, so obviously you do have
to let those things go.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
I believe that.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
What does this would say? Eighty six confess that they
deliberately delay when replying, so they say, Oh, that's the
other thing? Is this started in the movie What was
the name of that movie? It was so funny it
was it was a I think it was called Swingers,
Vince Vaughan and I can't remember the other guy's name.

(11:51):
The other guy's a big, big star. He's the guy
who's like this. One of the stars in Iron Man,
Jon Favreau. John Favreau wrote Swingers. That was how he
launched his career, and he got Vince Vaughn to launch
his career as the sidekick. And in the movie one

(12:11):
of the this is La nineteen ninety six. They're going
out to the clubs and whatever, and they're meeting all
the hot girls and John Favreau's character is a nerd.
He broke up with his girlfriend after like five years.
He doesn't know how to date. He's completely clueless. Vince
Vaughn is like the king of dating. And Favreau finally

(12:31):
gets a girl's phone number and he's like so excited,
and he's like, yeah, so she told me to call
her tomorrow or something like that, and they're like, you're
not gonna call her tomorrow, are you? And he's like, well,
she said to bron you're gonna rush it. You're gonna
rush it. Well, so what do I do?

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Then?

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Well, there's a lot of debate on that. So you know,
some people say, wait at least one extra day, but
even to me, that still feels a little rush to me.
You know, it sounds like two three days. Maybe that's
probably the sweet spot. And he's like, well, how long
do you guys wait? And they're like, oh, minimum a week,
minimum a week for me. So if, of course, Favro

(13:15):
goes holbody calls the girl that night, right, you don't
even wait, you don't even go to bed. He's calling
her that night and he rushed it. But that's one
of their number one things. How quickly do you respond
to somebody from the opposite sex if they send you
a text or a personal message on social media. They
said they spend a lot of their time contemplating. I
don't want to seem too eager, but I don't want
to seem like I'm not engaged.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
And if there's a guy responded to a girl and
they're also in gen Z, then they're overthinking both of
the surprising they ever get them a text message off
their phone, they probably rewrite it five or six times.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
It's I don't know what it's like to be gen Z.
If the people who care the less the least is
my generation Gen X cares even less than the Baby boomers.
We don't give a crap if we live or die.
We're just like what haves. Yeah, we're homeless, we're not homeless.
We're billionaires. We're not billionaires. It's whatever. Gen Z just
we're just rolling.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
So that is open. They do overthink everything.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yeah, that sucks.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
How many times have you had somebody from that generation
callpate let me, I'm going to let me tell you
what I'm going to respond. I'll send you my response
and tell me whether I should send it.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Well, now, I imagine they probably all run it through
chat GPT. Then the second guest, Rock and our final
thing of the night.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Say how old are you? I says, I can't. I
don't know what.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
I can't help you. You're under twenty five, You're screwed.
You're totally screwed.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Either way, you're screwed. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
I mean, my son's in his thirties, so I don't know, Like,
is there have we lost the ability to teach your
kids that you just don't give a rip with other
people think I believe we have. I don't know. It
just seems like my parents made a big stinking deal
out of don't care what other people think about you.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Sally. Sally was talking to somebody the other day. She
was like, who cares what he might think? Yeah, but
I'm trying to remember who she was was in one
of our kids. I was trying to remember who she's
talking Anyway, we're overthinking a lot of things around here.
That's that's the key to the morning rush. We don't
overthink it.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
No, we just let it ride, Ride, Ride, slippity ride.
I was having a conversation with I won't say his
name because I think he might listen, and I don't.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Want to be embarrassed. Sure.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
But over the weekend I was talking to him and
he was talking about his kids high school graduation and
how outrageous these graduation events have become.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
She's getting way to hell out of control.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
It's like thousands of dollars.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Three cameras set up, he hired a social media director,
there's a writer involved, his hair and makeup.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
And he was talking about how two years earlier his
oldest had graduated college and the party for that was
less than the high school graduation. It was less involved,
less people invited, less So that opened up a debate
is it a bigger.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Deal? Like?

Speaker 1 (16:23):
What party is the biggest party? Should it be the
high school graduation or should it be the college graduation?
Mom and dad, what are you going bigger on?

Speaker 2 (16:31):
Its good? Interesting, Okay, I've never contemplated that.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
Did you do a big one for David, Lee and
John when they graduated or Jane?

Speaker 2 (16:43):
I'm going to say, I don't know. I think they
were both about the same. I mean, it wasn't none
of them were over the top now, but I think
they were both about the same because they all graduated,
obviously from high school, and then they went on to
graduate from colle i believe it was about the same,
but again, didn't overdo it. We're not throwing a huge

(17:06):
production here.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
We're not trying to get this thing on MTV or
something exactly.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Maybe they were let down by that.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
They're still talking. They're scarred.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Maybe he was scarred. He was scarred by it.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
They're overthinking it right now. Janey's sitting there in Nashville.
Why didn't I father, I don't care about my.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
School posting pictures about this for at least a year.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
The lighting wasn't special? The cake? Would they get the
cake at publics? That's good?

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Oh my, okay, hey, what's going on in your neighborhood
we should be talking about you already got the word.
Now you need the phone number, say to three nine
six seven. We're going to do that at six point
thirty to morrow and morning for Willie Nelson, and tomorrow
will be Tuesday, the nineteenth of May, so we will
reconvene then bright and early to win, and then you
chime in on the morning rush
