Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, Kelly Nash, tomorrow's show today. Thank God tomorrow's Friday.
But this will be your last opportunity to win tickets
if you want to win the six thirty for what
you're talking about, if you want to go to the
South Carolina State Fair, because that ends Sunday.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yeah. Now, these tickets, you could use them Friday night,
or you could use them Saturday, or you could use
them Sunday. We recommend against Saturday because Saturday is going
to be crazy. Game Cocks are in town. First. That's
a historic event because we've never had Oklahoma in South
Carolina before, so it's something no one has ever seen previously.
(00:33):
Your great grandparents never dreamt that this could be possible.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
This is when I wish to have one of those
coming soon drones where you just kind of latches onto
you like a like a backpack, okay, and you're just
drown yourself up and file on over to the stadium.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Oh the jet packs.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Yeah, but this is like instead of having to get
the jet pack, which looks like you could just turn
the wrong way or cough and you flinch your wrists
away and you slam into.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
A building propel yourself into the ground.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
This kind of lifts you up with off the ground
gently and then you just have those little four helicopter
blades flying above you. Anyway, it will be crazy in traffic,
and I'm sure we should be thankful that we don't
have those drawnes because you'll have two hundred thousand people
in post proximity themselves in the airspace above WILLIAMS Brice Stadium.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah, this will probably be the busiest fair event that
we've ever had. I mean, I know every year we
have the Fair and a football game. Yeah, I know,
we like to say we sell out every game. We
don't always have sellout attendance right at every football game.
I think a couple of years ago we were like
playing Akron when the Fair was in town. That was
(01:44):
probably maybe three quarters full. Nobody was outside tailgating that day. Yeah,
this game, every seat will be taken and there will
be fifty thousand people, forty thousand people outside tailgating.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Didn't you imagine? I have a looved with the Airbnb
prices would be for a condo right there next to
Winsbrice Stadium for this weekend. I bet it's three thousand
dollars a night.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
And you know we had a friend once who had
one of those condos. I think that they sold it
and moved, but I remember going in. Now, this was
early in the season when it was like one hundred
degrees out and it was so nice because it was
air conditioned, and you know, I think we had a
kickoff at like seven o'clock that day, and so like
(02:27):
we were there all day, it seemed, because I remember
I did the radio broadcast, but I only do that
like an hour and a half before kickoff, So I
was in the condo. I went back out, did the
radio broadcast, sweated to death, came back into the condo.
People were having cold beer, and you're and you're looking
at the crowds, but you got all the he had
(02:48):
like six televisions. It seemed so every game in America's playing,
everybody's having a great time, and then it was just
like when it was time to go, let's go across
the street and watch the game. Some people are like,
I'm not going, I'm just gonna sit here and watch
it here. I will watch it on television and so
much better. And then it keep the doors open so
you can hear the crowd. I guess that they wanted
to know if something good happened before. Yeah, because you
(03:10):
hear it and then you know about ten seconds later
on television you're going to see it.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
That's right. But I do remember in the downturn at
the end of Spurriyeer's era, there were a lot of
people who had invested in those condos and some of
the realtors were threatening to jump off the balcony.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
So you know, well, and now, I mean, you know,
when game packs are doing bad, it's not good. And
now game packs you A're not doing great. It would
be nice to see him rally though. I mean, you
know what they always say, you got You still have
everything in front of you. You still have it all
in front of you. If you beat it, if you
beat Oklahoma and then you beat Alabama next week, you're
going to be ranked. You knock off Texas A and M,
(03:47):
you're knocking on some sort of like top fifteen, top
ten type of ranking.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I hated that Oklahoma lost last weekend.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
All right, Jonathan, if we want to get you into
the fair, you get to know the word of the day,
what you talk talking about. Today, we had two people
call in who did not know. They did not look
at the answer. The word of the day deser dorada.
Does a dorada? Desert dorada?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Desert derada? Is that a Dodge truck that's coming out here?
Y'all knew desi dorada? I don't know where that is.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
The desert dorada is when things that are required. So
it could be like the tickets are desiderrada to get
you into the fair, or it could be like you're
talking about a recipe. What part of the recipe is
desi dorada? Which part is optional?
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Interesting? Okay? I like that word.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah, it's a big word for big thinkers like y'all.
I know y'all has big thinkers because you're getting get
your pork chop on a stick at the state Fair
dead thinkers at six thirty?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Is the pork actually deser dorado to the pork chop
on a stick?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Or do we know what the mystery meat is? Do
you think there's mystery meat and a pork chop on
a stone? It just says pork chop on a stick.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I mean, you don't know. I went to Kentucky Fried
Chicken somewhere in the Bahamas and they said it was goat.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Is that turkey leg a legit turkey. Did you frankenstein
that turkey? Did you just sew parts together to make
a big turkey leg or.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Was that just a steroid fed chicken?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
That's what I don't know. Did you get the feling
grow pretty damn big? You might have taken the femur
off a wolf good heaving chicken.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
All right, so we can do that tomorrow morning, and
we will do that at six thirty nine, a minute
before as promised. Line them up on the phone and
they know three nine seven eight nine two six seven
for your chance to win. If you want to a
Harvest bundle, that's a four pack of tickets and two
Rye vouchers. That is a cool more dollars worth of stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I know, So that's fantastic. Also, Jonathan, when I look
at the Morning Rest blog at ninety seven five w
sos dot com, I see that now forty percent of
a mayor Murricans wish they had a do over when
it comes to college. Now, some of those people wish
they had to do over because they wish they hadn't
gone to college. They wish they said, I wasted my money.
(06:10):
Others say I would have majored in something different. Others
just say I didn't actually maximize my time there. I didn't. Yeah,
I just kind of farted around.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I really should have applied myself.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I enjoy so I maybe I'm guessing. Let's see. Uh
some of the people like, uh was it nine percent,
say that they didn't, that they applied themselves too much.
In other words, I wish I had rather I had
participated more in the what do they call it extracurricular
college activities, gone to more keggers.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
In other words, you got to get the college experience.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
So what do you think about that? Would you?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Well?
Speaker 2 (06:52):
First off, you and I probably poor people to talk
to about that, because we both I went to one
and almost a full half of a semester. How long
did you make it?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I got an associate degree, but I got kicked out
of the university. I would really go back, and probably
not well, I would go to that summer session broadcast
one oh one, But I would have I would have
gone in with a little better attitude, as I was
unceremoniously dismissed before the fall semester began. Although I was
enrolled in HRT, I don't.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Know that you had a better attitude available to you.
I think that came with maturity and wisdom. I imagine
the nineteen year old Jonathan Rush had a wow, pretty
rough attitude.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
It was a little abrasive.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Lot of lot of snark, smart ass. Yeah he got
something for you.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
He did have no idea that the summer school broadcast
one oh one professor was actually the dean of the
Jay School. Now, how does that happen?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
How could I have known that he is.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The dean and you're teaching a six week summer session.
Didn't see that coming.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Sixty three percent of people with a college degree said
they got a degree in something that's not practical. That's unfortunate.
You went to four years, you've accumulated I don't know,
fifty to one hundred thousand dollars in debt, and you
have something that's not practical.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
You're like that old Gallagher juke. You got a degree
in English Lit. What you're gonna do with that? Open
up a point repair shop.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
A poem repair shop. I thought they would know, like
you would repair a shop.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
We were making jokes about college education in the late seventies.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
They would say, would you prefer fries with that? As
opposed to would you like Fries with that point.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
So we were talking about this the other day, I
know maybe was on the other show. What degree should
you get right now? If you're it's twenty twenty five,
you're going to enter school sometime in the fall of
twenty twenty six, or maybe you're already in college but
you haven't picked a major, what do you try to
get a degree in? Thinking ahead you're going to get
(09:07):
out it'll be twenty twenty nine. What would be a
practical degree in twenty twenty nine, because a lot of
the degrees that seem practical in twenty twenty or even
are ridiculously outdated now.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I mean we all piled in, well we didn't. A
lot of people piled in as it was then prognosticated
and true healthcare has grown exponentially. So if you've got
a healthcare degree now, if you're inside the health care degree,
if you became like a radiologist or something them, well
AI's taken all those jobs or it will be. I mean,
the amount of a either using now with imaging. Now,
(09:45):
I'm not saying that radiologists aren't needed, and certainly they
do use the human eye, but they are using more
and more of the digital availability of artificial intelligence to
do those scan com comparisons and the original scans as well.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I just looked up best college degrees to get in
twenty twenty five. Number one is computer science, Number two
data science, number three AI machine learning. I didn't even
know that was a degree that probably didn't even exist
five years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
I'm sure it did not.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Cybersecurity is next. If you want to go into healthcare,
nursing degrees are still nursing is better than getting it
becoming a doctor. Yes, healthcare. Administration is still considered a
good one.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I would think.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and then electrical engineering. And in
business they still say get yourself a business administration and
management strong demand for graduate skill than data analysis and
global strategy. Also, finance and accounting is a good one,
and digital marketing. These are all the degrees that you
should be considering in twenty twenty five. But nowhere there
(10:55):
does it say English literature, No lit, Nope, that's not
not not going to pay you very much. Just what
AI does? What's that point? Repair They'll write the poem,
they'll recite the poem, they'll recite the poem as your
favorite poet. Wow, what would Shakespeare sound like? Reading Shakespeare?
(11:17):
They'll they'll have him, yes, or they'll have Tupac do Shakespeare.
What do you want, however you want it? AI's got it.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I'd like to hear Christopher Walking reciting Shakespeare to be not.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
To be John. And we had a morning Russian regular
who whose husband is angry, but she's angry. It's a
bone of contention. They're not really sure who's right who's wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
And again we're hearing it from her perspective. So again,
you know what do they always say? There's two there's
three versions, your version, their version, and then the actual truth.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah that's not biblical. But the other part is just wait,
another one comes with another story.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
So we're going to get her version of events. Her
version was her birthday was last week. I think we
can all agree on that. I can look at your
idea and agree that your birthday was last week. Her husband,
reading for Mariemeal, My husband was like, what do you
want for your birthday? I'd like to get you one
of those new high powered ninja blenders. And I said,
(12:21):
I don't want that for my birthday, but he said
it will help you. So much. You've been trying to
make all these protein shakes. This will be fantastic. It'll
change your life. And he ended up getting it for me,
and when I opened it, I was upset. And the
next day I returned it. And when he came home,
he said, did working with it? Did it change your mind?
(12:42):
And I said, I never worked with it. I returned it,
and now he's upset. He said, you didn't even give
it a chance. So who's right, who's wrong?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Don't want it?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Don't want it?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeah, she's already told you don't want it again.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
That's her version of the of the story. We don't
know his version. Or maybe she said I want it,
but just not for my birthday.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Oh yep, yep, Okay, okay, I got you. Yeah, hmm okay,
I'm gonna ponder that some more.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
You're gonna ponder it.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
I'm gonna put it through AI. See what chat gpt think.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Oh all right, I'll.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Have the answer read back to me as Christopher Walking
in Shakespeare's style.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
I'll go to Grock and I will get Grock to
read it back to me as Biggie Smalls.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
If Biggie Smalls was to be a marriage counselor well,
Biggie Smart, that's great, all right, John.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
And then that's our show for tomorrow. Thank god it's
Friday tomorrow. We kick it off, and then our first
opportunity for you to win is at six point thirty.
Then we start the Ika DA Payday. Then we're all
into the weekend and the Oklahoma's coming to town and
game Cup fans who truly are long term Clemson haters
are not going to be happy about this the game.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Why long term? Oh, because of what's his face? The
head coach there at Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yes, as long as we as long as he loses,
will love him.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
So we got that Venables. That's his name. By the way,
I think I told you this story. My brother in
law worked on Venables house up in the Clemson area,
and uh, it's it's one of those stories that every husband, well,
not to the extent that Brent Venables went to it.
But Brent Venables was also making like three million dollars
a year when he was an assistant at Clemson, like
(14:31):
the highest he was the highest paid assistant in America.
So we don't have typically our problems don't mirror his problems.
But he has more capital to deal with the said problems. Yes,
but what started off as I would like to get
a the porch redone. Not the porch, the deck, the
(14:51):
back deck that was an originally I think like a
forty thousand dollars quote rather nice house, nice neighborhood. Forty
thousand dollars deck turned into an eight hundred thousand dollars
project because the wife kept adding to it. So it
was a back deck. Then we want a back deck
also on the second floor, and why not, let's get
(15:11):
one on the third floor. And while we're at it,
we should rehab every bathroom that we have.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So they were getting all everything, like we're getting marble
brought in from Italy and all these things. And the
thing went on for like a year and a half.
Just as they were about to finish it, he sold
the house and moved to Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That's perfect, Tony, back your CRAF. We're going to Oklahoma. Hey,
what's going on in your neighborhood? We got something to
talk about. You tell us. You can reach out to
us on social media. You can also email this name
Rush at ninety seven five. Do you c us dot com?
Speaker 2 (15:42):
And I'm Nash ninety seven five to w BCUs dot com.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
When tomorrow with this phone number. When you have that answer, AH,
three ninety seven eight ninety two sixty seven, then let's
talk about this birthday thing. You got the same number
to chit chat about that. Maybe you've had a relatable
experience at three ninety seven eight w COS tomorrow in
the morning rush
