Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killy Nash, Hey Wes. Tomorrow show today this case
tomorrow will be Monday, and it'll be well worth the
wait because we get another pair of Morgan Walling tickets
to give away.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Yeah, we're gonna carry it through the weekend till Monday,
and that'll be our last pair that we give away
at least for a while. Might give some away, they're told,
maybe during the Christmas season, or maybe we'll give some
away just getting closer to June of next year. But
these are for the Friday night, June twenty sixth concert
at Death Valley. Very easy to win if you happen
(00:32):
to be the right number caller. That's the hard part.
If you're the right number caller, it suddenly becomes so
much more easy because the answer is already provided for you.
So the word of the day for what you're talking
about on Monday, imbraslio, imbraslio, this.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Is it's actually ambrosia is a derivative of this, which
is very timely because Thanksgiving is coming to one of
my only time I really like coconut is with ambrosia,
and that is, at least in the southern mixture that's
mostly a tangerine or some other type of orange with
with a coconut in it, and then there's some kind
(01:13):
of something to cream it up a little bit. But
that that was a derivative. This is the original, and
that is steeped and hot tea and then instead of coconut,
there's an orange flavoring.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I mean the fact that you just came up with
that on the fly. Do you know how rare of
a talent Jonathan Rushes. I mean that is that is
a gift from God that you just heard, ladies and gentlemen,
because he made all that up. Ambroslio is actually being
a confused or chaotic situation.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Same thing, so.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Confused or chaotic situation, like for those of you people
right now who might be heading to the airports, perhaps
you're in inmbroslio because it is getting crazy out there.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Now. We have a great example we just put.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Up on the morning Rest blog at ninety seven to
five WCS dot com. What you need to know as
today is the day that the FAA has ordered ten
percent reduction of flights at forty different US airports.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It's the biggest thing.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Charlotte, Charlotte, Atlanta, those are two the big ones near
US that got hit by it, so like, so far
today American Airlines has canceled two hundred and twenty flights
now they do have six thousand daily departures. Delta says
it's going to be similar Southwest Airlines saying that they're
(02:42):
directly contacting their affected customers telling them about the fact
that they're going to have to reschedule their flights. Jet
Blue issue to travel alert, but they're also trying to
reach out to the people. United Airlines says they're going
to cancel two hundred flights today and wow, more than
five thousand flights each day moving forward will be canceled
(03:03):
by United Airlines. So this is the government shutdown is
for real, for real now as you're now in the
longest one in a US history. And you know, I
can't believe remember when what was the name of that
movie where Michael Douglas played the president or Michael Douglas
(03:29):
played the best friend of Charlie Sheen's dad, Martin Sheen
was the president, right or was it the other way around?
I thought Michael Douglas was the president, Martin Sheen was
the best friend. And I can't remember the name of
that movie, but it was a very good movie. Democrats
and you and I typically don't like Democrats a whole lot,
although we have some friends that are Democrats.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
I love democrat friends of mine. I don't like their
political positions, we'll put it that way.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
But they they made both of those people very likable.
Michael J. Fox was in that movie. Anyway. There was
a thing where he was the president was planning on
doing something and they were like, you're about to get
hit with a strike by the United air Workers Association
(04:13):
or something like that, and he said, I guess I'm
not going to so and so because I may not
be much of a politician, but I understand you can't
have a strike during the holidays. Yeah, and we are
heading into actually the busiest flight day of the year
is in just a couple of weeks. And now you're
talking about mandatory ten percent reductions because they're not able
(04:37):
to provide safety. And so obviously that's a good thing.
If the government is recognizing we're not going to have
enough air traffic controllers to actually guarantee people's safety. We
need to slow down the flights.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
You have to.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
But a better answer would be and the government shutdown,
get these air traffic controllers back up there. It's impossible
to expect them to keep working for free. They've already
worked a month for free.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's a lot of them. Today will be the third
paycheck named miss Yes, as reported by most news agencies.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
So a lot of them have already either resigned or
not resigned, but just said I'm out till further notice.
And they're working as uber drivers or pizza delivery drivers,
are doing something to try to make some sort of money.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
You got to put food on your family, as George W.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Bush said, And ironically, it's Houston that has I think
the biggest walkout of air traffic control people. George Bush
famously from the Houston area. I think the airport there
is named after his dad HW. Bush. But we are
this year may just be trains and automobiles, no planes,
(05:50):
just the trains and automobiles. And that is a Thanksgiving
themed weekend.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Gas prices are down. You have to drive there, goodness,
spend as much time as you need, and then you're
going to have more people on the road than ever.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Well, I'm very thankful that the previous president built that
bridge to Hawaii, has promised yeah, so that we can
get there.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You know, that is a godsend. What a vision to
add that is great for.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Those of you of us. That was Jonathan was killing
me with his idea, we're gonna have like little floaties
on the bridge because you can't get the US to
go thousands of feet down in the potom of the ocean,
so we just building on floating.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
We saw it happen on Polar Express. They went across
the ice and the ice broke, they still made it
across the water. See that was that was already imitating life.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
That was so good. Well, good luck to anybody who's
got to be in an airport this weekend. I'm good luck.
I hate airports to begin with.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I feel like Edward R. Murrell airport. Oh, good night
and good luck.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
How many yeah, good night and good luck. How many
reporters are going to be just buried at the airport
for the next few weeks or until whenever this thing ends.
It's realize as we get paid for.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
But if you're trying to get home and see Mama,
you'll be sitting at the airport. You might as well
do your live shot and get on the clock.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Hmm. Well, I wish you all good luck. Finally, well,
before I get to our moral dilemma Monday. Number one, Well,
I'll just give you some of the top Thanksgiving side dishes,
and they break this down. Campbell's soup, by the way,
is the one who came up with this poll, this
survey of the best favorite. I should say that's the
(07:28):
better way of putting it. Number one sides for Thanksgiving. Now, Jonathan,
you've made it pretty clear. I think that I'm just
guessing here because I don't know that you've definitively stated it.
But cranberry sauce.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Well, you got to have the cranberry sauce, but that
goes with the dressing. Those two can't be separated ever,
so the dressing will be the number one. Then cranbery
sauce is a side note for that. That's a footnote,
and it can't be separated. No, it can't be separated.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
So cranberry sauce and stuffing.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I'm going to go with a green being cassero because
that is one of the items that comes to mind.
You use campbell soup in order to make it just perfect.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Well, forty four percent of Americans would say that green
bean castrole is their favorite Thanksgiving side dish, and I'm
thinking that's more of a Northeast thing, isn't it, because
I don't know that I've been.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Had them every summer, I mean every Thanksgiving here. My
mom made him. I loved him.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I've been to a couple of different Thanksgiving festivities since
I've moved here, gosh, twenty two years ago. Now, I've
been living in South Carolina, and I've been to several
that did not have the green bean castrole. But I
did not experience that. In the Northeast. Everyone had that one.
They loved that one. Fifty of Americans say mac and cheese.
(08:45):
Oh yeah, what else do we say?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Now?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
This is crazy. Sixty three of Americans say that they
prefer prefer the sides to the actual turkey, and fifty
six percent say they'd be willing to go without the
turkey for more sides.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I'm going to tell you I can witness to this
even as a Southerner. My mom and my one of
my grandmothers, I'll never forget this Thanksgiving. I still laugh
about it. My mom and my grandmother had cooked about
one hundred side dishes for Thanksgiving. What I mean, it
was unbelievable. The amount of food we had, and it
wasn't like a gigantic family gathering. I mean maybe there
(09:29):
were ten people there. It was my family and my
grandparents and a couple of other people. So we're literally
fifteen minutes into the meal and my dad says, as
he's looking across the table and down the way trying
to find it, where's the turkey?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Whoops?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
And we're all looking around, like, where is the turkey.
We're looking at our plates, We've got all these side dishes,
and my mom stands up and says, it's the oven.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Was it really in the oven? It was in the eve,
so they had started it, they just forgot about it.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Oh yeah, they cooked it, they just forgot to bring
it out and cut it because they had all these
had a table full of side dishes, and nobody was complaining.
My dad was the first one to point it out.
I was shoving it in my mouth. I didn't care.
I was loving everything I was eating.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
But Thanksgiving, I think I remember you saying this is
your favorite meal. It is totally and so turkey has
to be a part of that.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised I miss that.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
And the turkey isn't the turkey. The thing that gives
us the whatever they call it, the trip to fan
or whatever, that makes us fall asleep is the turkey.
So if you want that good nap during the Lions game.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Yeah, when Sally loved me, she would would she loved
me back? Would she loved it? Because she quit doing
this about five years ago. She would fix Thanksgiving meal
on my axtual birthday in April, which feel perfect because
that was like six months between.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
So you get two a year.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
I would get two a year every six months, and
she quit doing that about five years ago. I'm the
only one that loves Thanksgiving meals like that. So now
somewhere around my birthday, I always go to a restaurant
that has the turkey addressing, like Lizer's Thicket. I'll get that.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
That's like the only place I can think of that
would have it.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, there are very few places that have it, and
I think the Lizier's Thicket actually, well they have most days.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, well, all right, and I know.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Lisier's Thicket because I was there yesterday for a meeting.
Lazier's Thicket is open Thanksgiving Day from six am until
five pm. Because I thought I got to make a
mental note of that in case I forget something or
get somewhere and realize that somebody didn't bring something. You
need a tray of mac and cheese. Get on the
phone with Delicious Thickets, see if they got one available.
(11:39):
We're going get your order in now.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Yeah, just call it in.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
This isn't official commercial for listeners. They don't get paid
public service announcement.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I remember when I first moved to South Carolina two
thousand and three, that Thanksgiving. So Thanksgiving two thousand and three,
it was the best of times. It was the worst
of times. So that more I woke up and I
remember thinking, well, first off, I don't know anybody here really,
and I know bartenders and people of low moral caliber
(12:09):
fibers or whatever. So I said, well, you know what
I'll do. I'm going to go play golf because I
can't believe how nice it is. And it was like
seventy degrees that morning and two thousand and three. So
I went and played a round of golf at some
low country golf course because that's how I was living
in Charleston.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
They were open.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, played eighteen holes.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Wow, had a great day.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
And then I said now, what am I going to
do for lunch? I don't know anybody. I don't have
anything at the house. Am I just going to go
home and eat a blogeyan g sandwich or something? So
I went to I think they're called the S and
W Cafeteria, and.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I that was a great cafeteria, s and W's.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
And I ate at the S and W all by myself,
and I just sat around looking and there was a
couple of families kind of like from like what movie
was it where? I think it was The Santa Claus
where a single did know how to make dinner, so
they brought their kids because they had them for the
weekend or whatever. Right, So, but I was the only
one in there all by myself. And the waitress she
(13:08):
was I mean, now, I'm going back twenty three years ago,
so she seemed old to me at the time, but
she was probably about my age now. She was probably
in her late fifties early sixties, and she was like,
are you okay, honey? How are you doing? And she
was like she just kept coming and checking up on me.
I'm like, I'm fine, I'm really fine, but yeah, going
(13:30):
to a restaurant for Thanksgiving by yourself. That's a pretty
sad day.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
We were at the beach on one Thanksgiving me John
must have been about two years old, so and we
we were there with family at a different condo, and
we woke up and we weren't feeling well, and I said,
we're going to get sick. We didn't wanna need to
go home, so we packed up on Thanksgiving morning to
drive back to Columbia. I believe it was at a
Denny's in Manning, South Carolina, and we thought, okay, we
(13:54):
got to stop for lunch. We got to try to
eat something. So we went in and we had already
fed John breakfast that morning, I believe, I'm pretty sure
we did. So I put him in the high chair
and I put the little tray there, you know, And
as soon as I got him in, there was there
was one other family that wasn't too far from us.
There was only two families there. I said, another one
like you're talking about very lonely Thanksgiving day. And I
(14:16):
put him in his high chair and as soon as
I put him in a strapped him in. He went,
yeah and filled that tray up, that little tray that
goes on the high chair. Yeah, he filled it up,
and the entire family looked at me, and I said,
it's a glorious Thanksgiving for families that have to celebrate
it Denny's. Isn't it help you? Thanksgiving? Everybody? We'll be
(14:37):
going now.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Oh, but now he's hungry. There's nothing in his belly.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
The waitress came over and I said, I'll help if
you like, but you're you probably just want to do
this yourself. She said, yeah, just get the hell out
of here.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Nice, nice, Well that leads us, Jonathan to our moral
dilemma and uh, thankfully our more in Russia regular in
this instance, she has a what she describes as a
really good job as far as pay goes. And her boyfriend,
who she's been a boyfriend with like for just a
(15:11):
couple of months, so it's still a relatively new relationship.
Obviously like each other a lot. We haven't said the
love word, I don't think. But you know, she's been
invited to a wedding coming up here in a couple
of weeks, I guess. And she knows what his financial
situation looks like. She also knows what his wardrobe looks like.
(15:33):
She's seen his closet, she's actually embarrassed. Not embarrassed in
the sense that on regular hangout typical days, but for
a nice event like a wedding, he's got a very
ill fitting. I guess it's probably like a brown or
(15:56):
some ugly She described it as an unconventional color suit.
So maybe it's a hand me down from his dad
from the seventies or something stupid like that. Maybe it
could be as bad as a leisure suit. I don't
know how bad this suit is, but that's what this
guy's got. And so when she said, do you you
know I'm going to my friend's wedding here in a
(16:16):
few weeks would you like to come? Do you have
a suit that you can wear? And he said, yeah,
I'm all set. Well, she knows he's not all set.
I don't want to go into a wedding, but I
also know he can't afford to go down and buy
a suit. So at this point she's asking, should I
(16:38):
just go ahead and buy it for him? Or actually
I should say she has bought it for him, and it's.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Those birthday coming up? Can he couch it somehow?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
No, that's just early Christmas. I mean, this is kind
of emasculating your woman is dressing you and telling you
that you can't afford stuff. You know, you can't afford it, right,
and she can't afford it to me, I would have
(17:11):
just not told them about the wedding, or I would
have said I just got an invitation for one. It
didn't say a plus one.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
But now that you've opened up this Pandora's box, now
you stepped in it, how do you handle it?
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Do you say?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Do you say?
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Look, you're gonna need a good suit moving forward. So
I went down to Man's warehouse or whatever, and I
bought this like six hundred dollars suit for you or
a thousand dollars, And you know what, if it makes
you feel better, you can pay me back whenever you
get the money.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah, here's the way I think this, here's the way
I think you have to couch it. And I didn't
go through this lately when a SALLYX fans did because
their family intended family doesn't necessarily have like a suit,
and they were coming to Columbia and she said, look,
(18:05):
I just want you to know that if you have
a really nice suit, that that will be what you
need to wear because there'll be a lot of guys
there that are wearing really nice suits, and I don't
want you to feel uncomfortable. So were the really nice one?
Speaker 2 (18:21):
But that you know, I feel like Now, obviously I
don't know what her boyfriend's like. But when you're talking
to the out of town family, yeah, this could be
talking to Clark Griswold's cousin Eddie. Yes, so cousin Eddie's
gonna say, I got a great suit, Clark, glad you asked,
I got a fantastic suit.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Good? He does, he thinks that. I'm also that he
thinks he's good. He's not good. How do you make
it good? You got to tell us how to do that?
