Speaker 4 (02:36):
How do you feed twenty one people meal after meal

Speaker 2 (02:43):
I assume we have it catered.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Obviously, I'm kidding.

I'm kidding.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Are you filled? Is the home? You're the family filled

I think Joe's a really good chef.

Yeah, Joe's very good on and Dave Becky's husband, Dave
is really good on the grill. So on the grill.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
But what did you what did you have? Did you have?
Did everybody? Was it a pitch in?

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Uh yeah, kind of a you know, it's those days
where it's like, all of a sudden, there's uh, I
made a cheese ball, there's the there's the ordures that
goes for hours and then uh then it finally rolls
into dinner. People have been eating all day, I mean.
And then we were in the hot tub.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
It was so the kids great.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
I wasn't in there. I took the kids because the
kids were kind of losing it a little bit. Uh
So I said, hey, who wants to go in the
hot tub? And then they all went into the hot tub.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Man swimming on Christmas in the hot tub. That's cool.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
We started. We have a fire pit that we never
use out there, a gas fire pit turn that on
and ch talk.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
About fire pits because I really think I I really
liked the idea of getting it, of doing a fire pit. Now,
I used to not be it was a thing. And
I every time I've been around a fire pit, I
usually somehow the smoke follows me and it's in my eyes, and.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, you know what, get one of those. There's so
many new brands. Solo was probably the first, the smokeless, yes,
and they really do work. Now there's other brands too now,
so I don't want to make it seem like but
Solo is still a big deal, and you know, you
get and now they have enclosures for them to make

(04:25):
them look more like a you know, fire pit, like
with a ledge around it where you can put some
snacks and stuff.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Yeah. Yeah, And I do like the smell of the
wood burning and you would get smoke that and I
feel like, find me.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
I know, that's how I feel. I feel like I
could move ten different places and the smoke would still
hit me in the eyes and then you see then
the next.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
Morning the eyes are going to burn for the rest
of the night. And it just but I kind of
the more I think about what is out there, when
it comes to smokeless and to have I like that
idea of sitting down around a campfire. I love it.
I want to say real quickly, because you guys, I
did a last minute gift idea and I went to

(05:12):
and I wanted. I was inspired by the cups the
yetties that Pat gave to us last year with his
face on it, and last minute when called over went over,
and I mean truly last minute Christmas Eve. I think
it is when I picked it up day before Christmas
Eve and had Sullivan Hardware do yetti mugs, yetti tumblers

(05:35):
with my dad's face on it. Oh wow, And it
was the best gift. It made everybody, you know, a
little weepy, and I mean in a good way.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
Terry lost her father last year, a couple of years
ago now.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
But this was I just think, hello.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
We're sure.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
It's so funny all of a sudden, is so much
more than just means. She's the text. She's helping jare
it out.

Speaker 6 (06:06):
And trying to figure out Yes, okay.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
So producers are awesome. They really are.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Ye so uh but everyone liked them.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
Oh my gosh. I just think it's if you're ever
thinking about that really special personalized gift. You're able, Charlie, right.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yes, my son in law.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Your son in law is the guy that at least
is he the is he the etcher?

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Is he? There's a few guys Doug and Andrew and
and But what they do is they take a photo
and then they run it through that chat GDP.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
That kind of turns it into almost like a caricature
GPT GPT.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Yeah, and it turns it into kind of a caricature.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
It's just the most and I mean it's not it's
so well done. You can't even imagine how well done
it is. And but I get also gave them a
car and in a second, you know, they pulled that up.
They could put you know, somebody's favorite car or a
classic car on it. I just think it's one of
the most the special gifts. So I have to thank

(07:07):
you for that because it is so cool.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
It's great. I'm glad it worked out, loved it. It
was a busy, busy time for the engraver. Yeah, that
thing did not stop. I mean they were engraving, staying
laid and I would stay when the train was running.
I would stay late and encouraged the engraving guy not
because it's really hard when you're working by yourself to stay.
So I was like, hey, look we're having a party

(07:30):
here at the store. Keep engraving, engraving.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
Everybody wanted those signetti cups. I was behind people that
were just getting loads of signetti.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
I know, but we can't talk about that because we're
not sure we're breaking it. It's trademark or not. Well,
his name, we spelled it wrong, and uh we changed
the color to the Marlborough Low.

Speaker 9 (07:53):
It's a backwards see.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
So yeah, we're good, I'm sure. But they're very popular,
very popular. There's still so so you're telling me you're cheating.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Not cheating, We just don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, it's forgiveness. This has been Pat's whole mantra as
long as I have known it. You just do things
and if you know, don't ask and and forget.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
You know what, I think our Keystone store was pretty special,
that it is a special part of the community and
that that area and if I asked the city for
permission to do what we did there, it would not
be there. It just wouldn't.

Speaker 9 (08:35):
You're talking about the store itself.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
The store itself. Yeah, so I just had to gently
nudge them by doing a little something here and there,
and then they would kind of like it.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
And I don't know, Denny, I know that you and uh,
you did your you did your good deed of the
year with about the Christmas Eve, I don't know what
you call that.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Morning.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
It was Christmas Eve morning from So we got there
at seven and we finished up at one and Dan
Nicks from Dan Nick's Music puts this together and it's
some of the finest musicians I have ever played.

Speaker 9 (09:17):
Carol Indie Big Bands Christmas Carolling event. So every Christmas Eve,
this group of complete volunteer musicians go around and participate.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
And we twelve years and I thought it.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Was they was that it was all going to like
retirement places and you know, wor No, It's like they're
like walking into people's homes.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Oh yeah, a restaurants, I think, and they stop it.
When stopped that was the last stop.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
How many ale emporiums do you think there are? There's three.
I didn't know that. I've only been to one ale.
So they had the buses parked at the ale Emporium
off o Leo Road there in the Geist area, and
they said meet at at after we all had practice
and we're going to board the buses. Joana and I
drove all the way down to eighty six and Allisonville

(10:07):
Road and that's where the first ale emporia was. Well
there was nobody there. Well, then we realized we had
missed the bus, so we drove. They sent us the
cords of where to go, and we drove there. So
we missed the bus. But who ended up with?

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Did somebody the buses? Is what? Who? Who provided the buses?

Speaker 4 (10:27):
It was Miller Transportation school bus. They were just Lettle buses.
But what a great event.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
I mean, I thought it was really special. Musicians got
national attention. It was on NBC, I think last night
on the local news here. Yeah, we got national attention.

Speaker 9 (10:43):
Everyone what you play? I played the flugelhorn, and your grandson.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Jonah plays tenor sacks. And you know, I was so
proud for him. He was stroked for stroke with these pros,
I mean the kids.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh he's a talented young man.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Thanks you for coming by the way, thank you for
letting him be off. Okay, I know he was scheduled
to work and I had to pull some strings, but
thank you, because we had a great grandpa and grandson event.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yeah, that's a memory. I think you'll do it every
year now too.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
I think we will too. For you, I might get
a new instrument.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
I'm like cow Yeah, I do have a cow bell.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Now they saw somebody gave you a Christmas I have.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
I have Roady Ted's and it's like really used and
you can you can just like if you sniff it,
you can smell like Billy Joel on it.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Well, they had too with the carollers. I mean with
the musicians. I didn't know that there would actually be
singing and they had singers everywhere.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
And I can't believe that the gear, the keyboards they
rolled in and the drums.

Speaker 4 (11:40):
Percussions andrew on the drums was unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
How long did it take to set up in someone's house.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Leave it or not?

Speaker 4 (11:46):
About eight minutes they had it down. They had a
crew to help.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
With all that. That's so cool.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
But we would go into the house and thank goodness
something people know you're coming. Yes they knew. I think
somebody begged off at the last minute because something even
worse than what had already happened had happened. But we
got to do We went to Community Hospital Rehab and
they put us in this big area and there.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
Was a lot of toe tapping.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
They would always give the jingle bells to one of
the people that were there.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Yeah, I saw that.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
But it was it was rock. And then we ended
up we ended up at ale Emporium and they did
that in both bands. We actually had two bands, two
separate venues where we were going because we had so
many musicians.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
Wow, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
I'm going to be a supporter of that. If you
feel it in your heart to contribute to this, there's
there are five oh one c three go to Dan
Nick's nix music dot com. But I'm a believer in this.
You could not believe what an effect it had to
the people we were playing for.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
On Senior, Shadeal just sent me a text. This is
a man of the cloth. On Senior said, the new
studio is as bad as the old. One nine o'clock
Fox News was dead air and then no local news.
Fox is usually chopped off at one end or the other,
a common thing at WYBC.

know how to use it. Oh, well, we're learning it.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
So they missed the training thing. They're going to do
training later.

Speaker 9 (13:34):
No, I just don't I think this is the training.

Speaker 5 (13:36):
Oh.

Speaker 6 (13:37):
It was kind of like going from like a nineteen
ninety eight Nissan Maxima to stepping in a Ferrari and
expect you know.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Yeah, that's a good way to describe it. Everything's shiny
and new and technical, and.

I need to apologize to the trumpet section.

Speaker 3 (14:43):

Speaker 4 (14:43):
I was an embarrassment. I was the worst musician there. Now,
I'm not kidding you. They gave us the music.

Eleven worst than anything you've done in your entire Listen
to this. I bet the diaper trained at lay six months.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
They sent us music at eleven pm, six hours ahead,
and it was the most complicated music I'd ever seen.
And these guys are sight reading this stuff and it
was a big band thing. I mean, they were tremendous.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
You know, I felt like an embarrass Just move around

Speaker 3 (16:14):
In the ground.

Speaker 10 (16:15):
And mid day I wake up thinking I should talent
then that boy up to the stars and just think about.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
There is no test.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Hey, good morning, walking back at Sullivan Law with Dennis
Bill from Terry Stacy Allison Lemons. Ethan is behind the
glass at our new studio right across from Channel thirteen.
Who I'm sure is send us a nice fruit basket.

Speaker 5 (16:45):
By now.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
It's a holiday season, assuming they're just busy.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Oh probably, so it'll probably come later. Uh, speaking of
the holiday season, Brian Wilkes text me, Uh, he goes, hey,
where are the points set up? Because we always supply
that point SETTI is for Fox fifty nine. We do
a little trade out we do their tree and stuff.
I guess we forgot so their set has been void

(17:12):
of the holiday spirit.

Speaker 4 (17:15):
I can't imagine you forgetting anything, Pat, and you've got
a mind that just is like a file cabinet with
a lock on it.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
I said, hey, thanks for telling us. I mean he
was telling us on Christmas Eve.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Oh yeah, they could have told you a little.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah, a little sooner. We could have got him over there.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Hey, how was business? I was wondering about the you know,
the day after Christmas sales. I know that people were
saying some of the places that I saw around town
not too packed, but busy.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Terry, we took a drive and we didn't see any
busy business at all.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
You are not like it used to be.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Thanks for driving by our store. We were slammed.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
Did you have some for the good deals, for the
use of gift cards for what?

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Because were in the Christmas business? Christmas to Core? So
it was right, so fifty percent off and that continues
right now. And all of our sores seventy person Keystone
and don't forget Alisonville. But I mean the people were
like at eight o'clock, they'd line up because somebody wants

(18:20):
to always be he has a gentleman had his sights
on a thousand dollars Santa that then he could buy
it for five It was eleven hundred bucks, five hundred
and fifty bucks, so he was first in line, and
the line went all the way back, and then I
opened the door and they just piled it.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
I think that's so fun. I didn't know if it
was still kind of like that because it just seemed
kind of just a normal day around some of those
big box stores, even though I needed cat food and
ran into one, and I mean everything that was fifty
percent everything was wiped out really, so people must have
gotten their ba.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
People for Christmas too.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
When will it slow down for you that?

Speaker 2 (19:00):
I mean that yesterday is the big, big day, but
it's kind of a it's a for retailers. I would
say the calendar is an advantage because no one's you know,
even if you normally went back to work after Christmas,
it's just one day, so people have taken the day
off and then you roll right into a weekend. So well,

(19:22):
it's amazing when I think of the sales that we
did yesterday at fifty percent off and still see how
much stuff we have left. I'm like, man, we left. Yeah,
we're just a really big Christmas retailer.

Speaker 4 (19:37):
So if you went on the train and you did
the toys, this would be a really good time to
go back and get some toys.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
Yeah. The toys are yeah, fifty off, except some aren't
on sale, like legos and stuff.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
And you know, well, it was a successful season.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
I assume it was very good. Yeah, our business was
really good.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
How many total passengers on the Sullivan.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Express about eighty thousand or so.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Isn't that look at you sell?

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Eight thousand really is something, you know, the train, the
addition of the train. Yeah, but it's done.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yeah, it was really good. People were very happy with
the new the new things we added this year, and
you know, I think they liked the the five piece
Polar Bear singing choir.

Speaker 4 (20:26):
You're always going to get some negatives, but I did
not see a single child without a huge smile on
their face. They're just they're overwhelmed and in awe of
all the vignettes. And I think that north Pole City
or is that what it's called north Pole City up
on the south side.

Speaker 9 (20:43):
I'm sorry, I think Pat's phone went off.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
My phone, it's Mary Lou from the store. You know,
all the people at the store, they have no idea
that I have a radio show.

Speaker 9 (20:54):
It's quite funny to me. Yeah, it's well, this is
a new gig for you.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
Yeah, it's new. They'll get used to it.

Speaker 9 (21:00):
What thirty years now.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Yeah, And to them it's like, well you didn't like
when I get back at about one thirty or five whatever,
and they'll go, you know, like, oh, you're working till
tonight because I'm coming in. It's like, you know, I've
been working. Like they don't count the radio show as work.

(21:23):
You try working with Denny.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
It's really, I mean really it is. I mean, if
you think about it would work. No, you sit down.
You used to write on paper plates a couple of
things that you might want to talk about.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
I know, look at this, I have a Terry gave
me three pads of paper.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
It will last him a lifetime.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
You're acting like your own little house on the prairie,
you know, like the school just got a scratch port
or something.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Don't you do you sell?

Speaker 2 (21:49):
Life is a mess?

Speaker 4 (21:51):
I will really I have to agree with you.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
Pat.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
Are you going to be leaving soon?

Speaker 11 (21:55):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (21:55):

Speaker 4 (22:13):

Speaker 2 (22:16):
No, we're going to Florida for a week. They take
that break, just a small break, and then we'll fly

But I don't think I miss any shows. We have
to go buy Christmas.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
I wish I could go with you. I wish I would.
I think I would love it.

Speaker 9 (22:34):
I know, I think it would be really fun.

Speaker 4 (22:35):
I'd love to You were going to go. You were
also going to go the first week of March, and
you let me go to Italy. But my Italy trip's
been canceled, So schedule your vacation at Gobel.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Okay, I wasn't really a scheduling around. I figured Terry
can handle.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
It all right. So cool, you would like to go
to Atlanta.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
So so let me just look. First of all, I'm
worried about my truck outside. You know, I really don't
like this new system. So when Ethan like you can
hear when he talks to you, like your headsets cut out,
And that's different.

Speaker 9 (23:11):
Than Yeah, before he was just sitting right next to
you and just he could tell you just turn.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Your mic on and like be part of the show.

Speaker 6 (23:20):
Yeah, room, home and garden obvious, but.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Yeah, and just do that. I mean how you did
it before?

Speaker 11 (23:28):
No?

Speaker 2 (23:29):
You, I guess you would look at me and say break,
but your MIC's on. Just say, hey, we got to
take a break. I hate this cutting this thing out
in my is that all Right's?

Speaker 10 (23:39):
No?

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Look, but you know what, this is a team. Let's
vote on that. All in favor, say I of him
just having his mic on? Oh yeah, opposed?

Speaker 6 (23:48):
All right, Jenny's awfully quiet over there.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
You've got the show sponsor on hold and you're airing
your dirty laundry man.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Okay, mister genius. We've mentioned miche Liss like four times
during this. Hey, you got to take michelleis Hey, Michells
is on the line. Micheless is there for you? Twenty
four seven, three sixty five.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
Now you take it?

Speaker 4 (24:10):
Sound like Dick Crumb every time they mention your name.
It's a plus.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Joining us from the Michelis Corporation is Daniel. Hi Daniel,
Hey guys, how you doing.

Speaker 4 (24:24):
Thanks for being patient, Daniel.

Speaker 7 (24:26):
Yeah, absolutely, it's an honor to be on with you guys,
Pat Danny, Terry, Alison and Ethan. Thank you God for
having me.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
I've got it good. So, uh, we're going to call
you a short straw Daniel because they're making you do
the holiday week.

Speaker 5 (24:41):
I'll take it.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
What do you do?

Speaker 4 (24:42):
What do you do with Michellis Daniel.

Speaker 7 (24:45):
I'm a product manager here, so I will be handling
the rebuild after mitigation or after the separate department in
the office gets it ready for reconstruction.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
So you do take care management.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
Yeah, so you do the big the big pri pros
like on our you know, when I burnt the house down,
all your guys came in the equipment, the drying stuff,
and then all of a sudden pack out is what
you guys call it a packout. They took everything out
of the house and then all of a sudden the
project manager was there.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Correct, So you do the when the hospital's flood and
they have five hundred dryers on the on the premises,
you're managing all that, or it's after that's all done.

Speaker 7 (25:28):
So that is one of the first stages in restoration
is that would be the mitigation service the structure will
dry out, and getting it ready for the rebuild. So
I'm on the second second half second hand.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
You know, when Michelis was on, they were doing the
mitigation after I burnt the house down or burned it,
set it on fire, and just to show how full
service they were there, you know, pulling up water and stuff,
and the house rekindled and started on fire again, and
you know, they were kind enough to call the fire

(26:02):
department for me. Wasn't that great?

Speaker 5 (26:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (26:07):
That is It sounds like a very unique situation. I
don't think I've ever heard of rekindling.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
Oh yeah, so does does Michelle isssues? Once you start
into the build or the restoration, do you use the
traditional Gant charts and schedule ahead and all that? Is
that what you're doing?

Speaker 2 (26:21):
What is it a chart?

Speaker 7 (26:24):
I personally do not use charts, but everybody has their
own process and how they're going to run the project.
I don't use Gant charts, but I'm sure somebody in
our office probably does.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
What is a Gant chart?

Speaker 4 (26:36):
Den It looks like an Excel spreadsheet. But it starts
off like footers lay foundation, and it just keeps going off,
is it. It keeps going down and off to the right.
Is that right, Daniel?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
I would just call a schedule, you know, grow.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Up with an engineering family, you call it a gaant chart,
because that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
Has it been a Has it been a quiet holiday
weekend so far?

Speaker 8 (27:01):
It has?

Speaker 5 (27:03):
Yep, it has.

Speaker 7 (27:05):
But here I always like to say that January, February,
March those are really the busy months. But yeah, this
week's been quiet.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
Yeah. Well we got some cold weather coming, so yeah,
I never know what's going to happen next. Daniel. Thanks
for taking a little time out of your uh uh,
your holiday to spend a little time with us and
help us get through this four hour show. Yeah, you
did your part.

Speaker 5 (27:32):
I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
It's thanks Daniel. It's the Michelis Corporation. Eight four four
fixed Indie. That's eight four four fixed Indie. Water storms,
fire and wet basements, Life happens. Micheless happens to help
you through it, Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls across

(28:07):
the Countryside. A segment that we thought was not coming
back for twenty twenty six. It's coming back. It's in
the weeds with Denny Smith.

Speaker 4 (28:19):
Last week we passed out on it.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Thank you, OHI for the nice introduction.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
Thanks Patty. It was an average introduction, but thank you.

Speaker 5 (28:28):
Hey.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
Listen, last week we passed out some electromagnetic devices that
supposedly changed the structure of ice on your windshield and
they melt off, and uh, Ethan, you have a report
now of whether or not it worked because you sent
us a video. You went up and down the parking
lot at your place, tell us about.

Speaker 6 (28:47):
Yes, so there has been one morning, could enough to
do the test, and I can confirm, despite all of
our cynicism, Yes, my car was the only one in
the line that did not have any ice.

Speaker 3 (29:04):
I think it's so cool.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
Yeah, so we've got more cold cold weather coming next week.
You keep us posted because we're gonna do this for
four while.

Speaker 6 (29:11):
Why did you let us know I sent one to Denny.
Sometimes I don't know if you guys care, and so
I don't want to bother everybody, And yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
I kind of did. I'm really all right, So, Ethan, you're.

Speaker 4 (29:23):
Going to be part of another experiment here, are you ready?

Speaker 3 (29:26):
All right?

Speaker 4 (29:27):
So there is this product, and I'll hold this up
so you all can see it.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
Zelman's.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
This is one of our station advertiser and it's called
Minty Mints, and it's supposed to deal with breath freshener
and then it has parsley seeds that go down into
your stomach and deal with the real issue. So mints
are not sufficient.

Speaker 9 (29:48):
Advertise with them?

Speaker 3 (29:49):
You do? Are they?

Speaker 4 (29:50):
They advertise with us? And so I thought, well, I'm
just going to experiment with this, and I have a
little experiment, pat how would you describe your breath in
the morning?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Golden fresh? Like uh, you know, like a pot of
geraniums on a spring day.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
It's usually like a coffee breath. Now, Ethan, how would
you describe your breath?

Speaker 5 (30:10):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (30:10):
You know most of the time. How would you describe it?

Speaker 6 (30:13):
Uh, somewhere between trash and.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
But trash and but all right, so lucky lady, Yeah,
I don't want to know what you did last night.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
All right?

Speaker 4 (30:26):
So Terry, I'm not going to test the two ladies
because their breath is fresh, they're always charming, but it yet,
I'm saving it for the test, which is what we're
doing right now. So there's a little but we can
open he is angry. He's good. There you go, Harrylyn
all right, so if you would, you can take the

(30:47):
test if you want it, take two. It's either two
or three.

Speaker 9 (30:51):
So are they Is it like a pill?

Speaker 3 (30:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (30:54):
No, No, that's a really good question, Alison. What you
do is you suck on the mint until it's gone,
and then you wallow it. And this is Parsley.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
See well, okay, first of all you said, suck on
the mint until you gone, then the mint wallow if
it's gone.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
There's nothing that's The mint is a cover. The mint
is a cover. There's there's two things there. You want
to feel comfortable when you're close up with people.

Speaker 5 (31:16):
Too many it's.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
Already really minty fresh just sucking on it, so Zielman's
minty mouth.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
It's because brushing is mandatory, but sometimes it's not sufficient.
It doesn't get all the junk out. But here's what
this does is this knocks down the sulfation.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
This isn't gonna this isn't a joke, like I'm not
gonna know.

Speaker 5 (31:35):
This is the.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
Do you think our advertisers are going to be like this? No,
this is the real deal.

Speaker 9 (31:41):
So once it gets soft, enough you chew it and
swallow it, and.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Swallow it seems in it. That's exactly right.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
You didn't get this from Spencer's.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
You know this is really truthfully, honestly, I've heard this before.
This is why on your plate of food whenever you
go to a restaurant there's a little parsley sometimes it's
just kind of sitting there, right, And that's for you
to chew after you've eaten your meal, because parsonally is
supposed to.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
And I always ask for ranch dressing for here's Here's
why this is important because Zelman's has solved the problem.

Speaker 4 (32:12):
This is one of our advertisers. They've solved the problem.
It's not fumigation where we flush our mouth full of
just you know, cologne. This is going down in the
belly and it really is dealing with things that people
don't know how to deal with. But if you I
had a coworker that has terrible Yeah, once you get

(32:32):
through the mint, now that's the mint part. After you
get through the mint, then you swallow it and then
I'm going to have you pass.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
Going to cause me why do I see unicorns back here?

Speaker 5 (32:48):
That's weird because I see one behind the gloss.

Speaker 4 (32:50):
I see what I see what you're doing. Here's what
it does. The partially when it goes down into your stomach.
It's partially sees, is what it is. It deals with
the soul fights and the soul fights.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
You know.

Speaker 4 (32:59):
That's like that an egg smell that you have from
soft water and hard water sometimes and it's produced by bacteria.
And what the parsley seeds do is it deals with
the bacteria down in your gut. So I thought, we're
going to test this, and then after we all do it,
especially the guys, I want to hear how you would
describe your breath after a few minutes.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
So you know, we'll so as soon as the mint
is gone and you swallow it, swallow.

Speaker 6 (33:24):
It once you get it down enough. It's like rubbery.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
That's how you know it's time to swallow. That's how
you know you swallow the rubbery ball. Oh you don't chew,
you don't chew.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
No, no, no, it's all sucking and swallowing.

Speaker 9 (33:40):
Because then you taste a parcel.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
I didn't know, youace.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
It's just a live spot for this company.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
I don't know, it's not it's it's an experiment. I
really wanted to see how the guys would describe it,
because guys never worry about their breath. Women for the
most part, don't have to worry about it, but they're
always concerned. And here's how you know somebody is concerned
about their breath. When they talk to you, they back off.
Close talkers must have the confidence of I don't know

(34:09):
if you ever had a close talker and they're just
close talkers or what is it?

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Did you come out a vitamin?

Speaker 6 (34:15):
Yeah, it looks like a pill. Once you take it out.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Like a little like the supposed to do that you're
supposed to swallow follow instruction, you realize.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
How bad you are a following instructions follow, So you're
not a Really that's why you're going to discover.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
You're a discovery. You're going to discover that you're going
to give it.

Speaker 9 (34:34):
I kind of bit a little bit one of and
what was the taste? It tastes like parsley.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
It tastes like parcel really bad.

Speaker 9 (34:40):
I want it. It's very strong.

Speaker 4 (34:41):
Well, here's what I'm gonna do it. Well, we'll come
back to this after the break, and then I want
you to explain, Oh.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Did you buy it not supposed to follow the rules.

Speaker 4 (34:53):
The experiment is with Zelmans z E l Am I
an apostropheus minty mouth.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
Are they one of our advertisers?

Speaker 9 (35:00):
It need to be now for the fourth time.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yes, I heard this advertisement here, so I bought some
so we could test it. Huh yeah, I think Terry
said the segment's over coming right back right here on.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Three nine ninety three ninety three. It's Saturday's Home and
Garden Program, brought in part by the Michelist Corporation. Water storms, firing,
what basements, life happens, mischeliss happens to help you throw
on you over gone.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
I know this is because I am with someone to
I know.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
We're doing.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
Hey, Saturday's Home and Garden Program, brought in part by
the Michelist Corporation. Uh, we are going to be here
till one o'clock? Is that right?

Speaker 3 (35:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Maybe I you scheduled a late game or something. On Senior,
another comment here yesterday I heard an ad several times
advertising their Labor Day sale. Well, mon, Senior, you know
you got to get ahead of the curve. Labor Day
is right around the corner. So truthfully, we are our engineers.
Everyone is working really hard to get the studio up

(36:06):
and running, but it is hard to to uh to
move this thing. Did we move a little too early?
Oh hell yes we did, but there was problems with
uh we were getting kicked out of the building. Yeah,
so we had we had to move, had to move
before we wanted to. But you know what, and I
know that program director is like, what's our program director's name?

Speaker 3 (36:28):
David?

Speaker 2 (36:29):
David. David would say, hey, don't talk about it. Just
do the show and don't act like this problem. That's
what program directors always do. Don't don't don't talk about
what's going on. Well, I always like to think our
listeners are not stupid, so uh and an explanation should
be prev So stay with us because we'll get this

(36:49):
thing straighten out. The engineers that worked really, really hard.
It gets a little better every day. Two steps forward,
one step back.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
We are good at this.

Speaker 4 (36:59):
Every once in a while, get some interrupt Did you
do that on purpose?

Speaker 2 (37:05):
That's a talent.

Speaker 4 (37:07):
I thought, Oh my god, Hey, I got an announcement.
This is from my good buddy Tracy. The Indiana b
School is going to be held February twenty eighth in Carmel.
It's an all day conference with vendors and lunch reservations
must be made. And you do this at the Beekeepers
of Indiana dot com. The bee Keepers of Indiana dot
com all slammed together. But we get people who want

(37:29):
to start, you know, beekeeping, and it's a talent in
the school helps you keep from making the stupid mistakes
at the beginning. So the Beekeepers of Indiana, I.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
Take a little I take a little abuse from the
bee people because of my you know, my theory on
because we're not you know, we're not.

Speaker 3 (37:49):
We're leaving city weed. Just say it, say and.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
The the bees get fat and uh.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
Don't get fat. And then from Danion, we're talking about dandelion.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Obesity is a real thing. They it cuts down on pollination.
All of that. I am a friend of the bee.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
In what way we window he advertises.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
The windows one, thank you very much. Uh we purchased.
You know. We saw a lot of pajama pants at
our hardware store.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
You do a lot. I have, I myself have sasquatch.
You canut them.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Uh, well, we got be pants this year. Saw those
the b pants.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
They were pretty. They're pretty. Are they gone? And people
love them?

Speaker 2 (38:42):
Oh, hell, no, nobody bought them, So all you be
want to be people, show you stuck. And I was
going to take that money that I made from the
b pants and I was going to do a public education.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
Oh brother, I didn't see attack on pants. Public enemy
number one does public any education.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
But instead my family has taken a matter of fact,
we're only going to go to Florida for a week
now because we are stuck with so many bee pants.

Speaker 4 (39:19):
So Tracy pl meer, I love you and we'll do
our best to.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
I got a whole I got boxes of them upstairs.
I apologize to be big. I apologize profusely for my
co host.

Speaker 3 (39:33):
I think the bees had a tough summer, or maybe
it was last winter that hurt them. We had people
down the street that had beautiful but they built a
beautiful home for bees and it was right, little water,
a little everything the bees needed. And the bees did
not survive this last year, all of them gone.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
You know what, I think bees are a bunch of sissies.
They need to suck it up.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
This is why you just said you support the bees.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
But you know what, it is tough love. You can't
start handing them stuff on a platter. They need to get.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
Out there of Indiana dot Com.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
They need to get out there and kind of rugged
like their ancestors. They're getting soft, just like our kids
are getting soft. You know, it's happening to the bees.
That's happening to kids. Bees used to be able to
remember the bears.

Speaker 6 (40:24):
It did sound like a political speech there.

Speaker 5 (40:26):
It's pretty good, thanks for noticing.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
I do think that an investment at Sullivan Hardware of
buying squirrel boxes. I think those would sell like hotcakes.
And I feel like a lot of squirrel boxes. No,
you don't have hearts.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
Those are called traps the squirrel box and then you
take them. Then you put a rope on it and
you throw it in the river.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
Oh all right, so let's change the subject. How's your
mouth feeling pat out from the mint and stuff? Do
you feel confident in getting close to people to talk
to them?

Speaker 2 (41:08):
I think I'm I think I want to be a
close talker.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
You want to be a close talker?

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (41:12):
What do you think, Ethan? Are you a close talker?

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Is there a day? Is there a national day called
close Close Talker Day? That would be hilarious.

Speaker 3 (41:20):
A listen, we just got the computer here, she goes,
wouldn't that be.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
Great to have a close talker day where everyone gets.

Speaker 3 (41:25):
To just like walk up the house. Your mouth ethan,
how's your mouth?

Speaker 6 (41:29):
It is very fresh?

Speaker 5 (41:31):
It was.

Speaker 6 (41:32):
It was a very intense mint. I will say that.

Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah, if you want some more, I gave two free samples,
I mean two boxes to Alison and Terry because of
course they already have sweet breath. But if you want
some more, Pat, would you buy this at a store?

Speaker 2 (41:47):
I absolutely would. What's the retail price? What's the margin?

Speaker 3 (41:50):
I don't even I don't even remember.

Speaker 4 (41:53):
They come five to a box, So five of those containers,
I mean, I'm sorry, maybe there were six because I
gave tomen I would definitely buy them.

Speaker 6 (42:01):
Hey, guys, just chiming in from the producer booth. We
got a minute left?

Speaker 2 (42:04):
Okay, fine, Why you said that? Because we get off
in this new studio. It's like it's just different. You
know what we could do is we could uh what's
the name of it, Zelner's zell men e l Men's
Zell's men men Zelman. We could merchandise them with the
uh with the garlic cloves.

Speaker 9 (42:24):
Can I can I give you an update on national stock.
So when I type it into Google, you know how
they have the AI overview. Now, yeah, it says, uh, well,
there's no national day for people who talk close. You
might be thinking of National Dingling Day for celebrating real conversations.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
Okay, we need to start this day. National Close Talker Day.

Speaker 9 (42:46):
Was December twelfth.

Speaker 4 (42:47):
Uh, they come into three pack two.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
National Close Talker Day. We just got to find a
day now, all right, Yeah, that's what we'll figure out.
What what ties in? Is it? Time to go? Two seconds?
Our number two is coming up? Ninety three WIBC Jared that, Hey,
we're talking to each other in that great Monsor Schadel said,

(43:15):
there we go ten o'clock. Fox News joined in progress.
Nice job, Jared. I don't know what you did to
screw that up.

Speaker 12 (43:21):
I don't know what I did either, Sometimes you just
gotta fidget with stuff.

Speaker 9 (43:25):
What do you think it was you saying that was
a good thing, like Fox actually worked?

Speaker 2 (43:29):
No, I think he said. Fox News joined as it
was already in progress, as in Monsor did not hear
all the news.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Sorry, mon.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
Hey, Jared, I'll give you his cell phone and you
can fill him in on the first five seconds.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
No, yeah, if you can find out what it was.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
I'm not sure what the first five seconds. I always
said that about these people. They give the news and
you ask him what's new? They go, oh, I don't know,
I just read it.

Speaker 12 (44:00):
You ask me two or three hours from now when
I leave this building what happened this morning? I may
not be able to tell you.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
Well, how is Christmas?

Speaker 3 (44:08):
I was wonderful, was it?

Speaker 2 (44:10):
What was your favorite gift? Oh?

Speaker 12 (44:13):
Probably the socks? Remember I told you every year I
guess sacks socks.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
It's the best.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Have you did? We talk about the new thing. I
don't know how new it is. But all of a sudden,
my socks have an L N N R on them.

Speaker 3 (44:27):
What's that for?

Speaker 2 (44:28):
For right foot and left foot?

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (44:31):
That's what that means. Yeah, do you have those kind
of socks? No, because I just put them on because
quite honestly, it's like brought just a tiny bit. It's
like drip, drip drip of more stress into my life,
you know, making sure Now I have to look at
the sock. So I didn't know how common that was.

(44:53):
So you've never heard of it? Terry, You guys, can
you wait?

Speaker 3 (44:56):
You've part of it for children well there you go.

Speaker 6 (44:59):
Yeah, my parents giving me those two.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
Pass Yeah, when you're a kid.

Speaker 6 (45:03):
But the only thing is it's hard to keep pairs then,
because then you find yourself wearing two l's because you
can't find the R.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
So trust me, Courtney. Why pilates instructors like two rs?

Speaker 5 (45:12):
This morning? Pal?

Speaker 3 (45:14):
So are you still doing the pilates?

Speaker 5 (45:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (45:17):
That's what keeps me upright, three days a week, seven
thirty am.

Speaker 3 (45:24):
You know what I got for Christmas? What jiggle machine?
I never have to exercise again? The old you stand
on it? Oh I forgot? Yeah we need to.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Oh no, Jared's listening. He's trust me. He wants to
know what the jiggle machine may tell you.

Speaker 12 (45:40):
I don't want to say what my first thought was
of what the jiggle machine could be.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
You've seen me. There's not a jiggle. Lot of jiggling
going on in the upper oh boy. But I'm just
saying what this happens is it is? It is you
step on it and it jiggles for ten minutes, vibrating,
jiggling all of your muscles, so you are toning without
having to do anything but jiggle ration. Okay, that's a vibration.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
Remember the Do you remember the health spas the workout
places back way back in the seventies sixties, they had
the belt. You would go in there and you'd what
are you doing? I'm exercising? The belt was like.

Speaker 4 (46:21):
We also had a roller that had dow rods on it.
You would sit on it and then it would on
your on your bottom.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
Okay, they didn't work in the seventies. Why is the
jiggle machine going to work?

Speaker 3 (46:30):
Because it was only jiggling your belly. Now we need
to be jiggled all over and so as you stand
on this. It was very popular at the Home show
last year and other shows. And uh, and I'm telling you,
I feel like I like I had the like I
was doing yoga, and after it was over, everything burned

(46:52):
and tingled and itched and that's that was all that.
That was all the toning going on.

Speaker 2 (46:58):
Itching. You should probably see a doctor. But but you're right,
Allison looks great and she's been doing the jiggle thing.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
For If you ever wondered what Jared looks like, he's
in the YouTube screen way off to the right behind
He's in the aquarium.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
See you later, Jared, h Jared.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
Your difference is the price of our doors.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
We go for macho symbols like guns, running shoes, pickup trucks, kndugs,
and power dues.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
Power to our number two of Saturday's Home and Garden
Program RUTCH, in part by the Micheliss Corporation. Water storms, firing,
wet basements, life happens, Michelss happens to help you through it.
We're gonna be here till one o'clock if the equipment
holds up, and it is we have got something playing.
I mean we have, I mean we got I don't

(47:46):
know if we can fit it all in. And now
we are going to be planning the National Close Talker Day.

Speaker 9 (47:55):
I don't know if I'm on board with this. I
don't know if we want to encourage this kind of Well.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
We have a we have a new sponsor, Zelman, and
they have this minty mint thing where it.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
Has They could be the sponsor for day.

Speaker 3 (48:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
You know, you know how much help we got from
Smith Wyatt when we have you know, anti gas medicine,
and we tried to do that for Slowfest.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
People don't like our ideas very much.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
I'm gonna ask chat GPT when would be win would
be a good day? Two for National Clothes Talker Awareness
Awareness or.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
Just and that makes it sound like you need to
go get checked for your prostate.

Speaker 9 (48:41):
I kind of like it that way people think about it.
I feel like, do I need to be this close?

Speaker 3 (48:46):
It says I would do it in this one chooses April.
This particular friend of mine on chat GPT says it's
it's right in the middle of spring, okay, close enough
to feel intrusive, but not hi to any major holiday.
The end between vibe matches the too close for comfort

(49:07):
theme perfectly, so they're saying April twenty fifth.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
April twenty fifth, okay. I was thinking of kind of
tying it into maybe right around like National pasta Day,
which is we'll cut a lot of garlic and stuffing. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
It also speaks of perhaps your second choice would be
June first, which kicks off summer, when people are already
overheating and personal space.

Speaker 4 (49:33):
Heating within stage threshes.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
Okay, January fourth, right after the holidays, when everyone is tired,
crowded out, and at least tolerant of close talkers wo.
And then its final choice is November fifteenth, midway between holidays,
when stress is high and personal space matters most What.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
If I was a close talker and didn't know it.

Speaker 9 (49:57):
That's why I feel like it's a big thing. I think, Hey,
we have people who are close talkers don't don't know it.

Speaker 4 (50:01):
Yeah, we have a listener who has an opinion. Steve
is going to join us now, Bronco pet.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
Hey, Steve, I see hello, Denny, Hey buddy.

Speaker 4 (50:12):
All right, So what's your suggestion for Close Talker Day?

Speaker 8 (50:15):
So it would be January nineteenth. And the reason that
I'm suggesting January nineteenth is because January nineteenth, ninety five
was when the episode of Seinfeld the label Maker appeared,
and that's where jud Reinholds was dubbed the close Talker.

Speaker 3 (50:31):
Oh perfect, look at you.

Speaker 5 (50:34):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
That is brilliant.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (50:38):
Yeah, but I have I do have a home question
for Denny. Okay, first of all, Denny, last night I
saw you a job.

Speaker 2 (50:48):
At you Steve Way to bring the show down everybody.
The real question real quick?

Speaker 3 (50:53):
All right, So what happened.

Speaker 5 (50:55):
Yesterday last night? Denny?

Speaker 8 (50:57):
There was a show that you could be the color
commentator on CBA Sports Network. Last night they had the
National Plumbing Championships of twenty five.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
Those are amazing contests. That's where the usually it's apprentices,
the fourth year or fifth year apprentices. In Indianapolis, I
think we have three years. But they're just amazing what
those kids can do.

Speaker 8 (51:20):
It sure is in a high level of the fact
that they no longer have to do They no longer
have to sweat brass or do any type of welding
because it's all it's all hoses.

Speaker 4 (51:29):
Now, it's all hoses. It's not hoses, it's pecks. You know,
it's it's a cross link polyethylene. That is the standard
now it's not hoses.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
Come on.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
And then the fittings, the shark bites, you know, the uh,
the the regular ring, I like the lead ring for
PEX fittings. The collar, the collar, Yeah, that's what I
feel the most company now everyone like slams those sites.

Speaker 4 (51:58):
The thing about the collar and the shark bites is
there's a special tool that if you need to pull
it out once it gets in there, there's a special
tool in that cost forty five bucks. I had to
buy one because I found myself working with it and
I think, how do they get these things off my pecs?

Speaker 2 (52:13):
It was the big tool to do the rings. I
have three sizes right in my office.

Speaker 4 (52:19):
You know, they have hydraulic ones now that Milwaukee's made
a tool about the size of your fist. That before
you had to be able to compress it like bolt cutters.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
And sometimes there wasn't enough room. It was in the
cross space.

Speaker 3 (52:31):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (52:31):
Well, now they're crimping. They've got all these new types
of fittings.

Speaker 5 (52:34):
It's it's incredible, it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (52:36):
It is.

Speaker 8 (52:36):
Hey, Benny, can I ask my toilet question now?

Speaker 9 (52:38):
Sure?

Speaker 5 (52:39):
Whatever?

Speaker 8 (52:42):
So you know, if there's a different toilet, would that
increase the amount of flush that comes in there based
on the bowl? Is it based on I'm just would
like to have a toe, but it has a little
bit better flush to it, a little bit better woosh
when you pull that handle.

Speaker 4 (52:59):
There's a lot of components that make a good flush.
Number one is we we learned long ago that if
we had a little hole that came directly off the
tank down in the trapway, it was called a siphon jet,
and what it did is it started the suction. But
then they started messing with the four We used to
flush with four gallons.

Speaker 3 (53:18):
We would not have any.

Speaker 4 (53:19):
Problems with toilets if we still had four gallons, but
pat we took it down to a gallon per flush,
and now they want a point ninety five gallons per flush.
And that's for the crew.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
You know why California, right because when when we finally
when they come up with this stuff, they love power
over other people. So when it was toilets and it's
like finally, like we moaned and groaned. The first one
point six gallon toilets were awful, and then finally the
manufacturers they you know, they were accepted. Well, all of

(53:48):
a sudden, the people that push that stuff, it's like
they lose their power. It's like, no, we want we
want one point three, we want point ninety five.

Speaker 4 (53:56):
And everybody was flushing twice. Anyway, It's the same thing
with the with the LED bulbs.

Speaker 2 (54:01):
You know, first they we had CFLs and then they
didn't have the light right on the LEDs. They finally
have gotten it and so it's great, we've all accepted
them pretty much. Right Well, now California wants to ban
the one hundred watt equivalent which is fourteen watts, because
they lost their power because now we've all accepted them,

(54:22):
like we gone.

Speaker 4 (54:25):
Back to the toilet, Steve, It's a combination of many things.
It's the flapper, it's the size of the tank, and
it's the trapway itself. So you as far as a
simple answer, there is none.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
But there is a simple answer.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
But the Toto stool is a great stool, but so
is the American standard, and so is the cold Steve.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
Yeah, more fiber. Stop, you know what you're looking at?
This all wrong? You're looking at Oh, it's all about
the equipment. It's your equipment. More fiber. You can use
any toilet of the off the shelf.

Speaker 4 (55:00):
Hey, Steve, I'm going to give you a plumbing question. Okay,
what demographic has the largest human No?

Speaker 3 (55:07):
No, this is a good question.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
You have to do this.

Speaker 4 (55:09):
What what demographic has the largest human waste and has
most stopping problems? No, this is an interesting style, I don't.

Speaker 2 (55:16):
Think, so take it.

Speaker 3 (55:17):
Take a guess, Steve.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
I'm going to say. I'm going to say talkers have
the biggest stool.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
There's two.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
It's old men when you know, just as they get
into their eighties and nineties. And the other one is
kids going through puberty. Their whole systems are changing. Hey,
what you're are you suffering over their pet.

Speaker 6 (55:41):
Just this segment stinks, Steve.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
Thanks for your phone call. It's always good to hear
from you.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
Broncos By.

Speaker 3 (55:50):
Steve, did I overstay my welcome on that question?

Speaker 5 (55:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (55:54):
You always go one too far, don't you.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
I asked you this every week at least once. Don't
you have the intellectual curiosity?

Speaker 3 (56:01):
Pat?

Speaker 2 (56:01):
I have what I believe is good manners, and I
know how to put on a show that doesn't you know?
I think you can like the bee thing, you know,
I talk about bees. That can be funny. Once you
start into what size people's human waste is, that's like
that's over there at the breakfast table. They're not thinking, Okay,

(56:22):
what is it is?

Speaker 3 (56:23):
It's mostly men that have this fascination.

Speaker 4 (56:26):
With poos because we're the ones that have to fix everything.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
Well, I don't know if it's that Terry. Have you
ever used a plunger? Wait a minute, all the time,
all the time. I'm not afraid to use the plunger, Okay,
but I'm just saying I don't. I don't know the fact.
It's not like I'll go out and talk about it.
Then the next day you can't believe what I popped
out of the toilet with my plunger.

Speaker 4 (56:46):
Okay, like you guys do. Well, if I need to apologize,
I'll apologize to you.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Actually, I know a teenager his name was Ben, and
they were the whole family was at the family functions,
family cottage, and he just he literally didn't flush and
then had everyone come in and check it out.

Speaker 4 (57:10):
That's every eighteen year old kid that I know. Ye
why because.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Because it was so impressive.

Speaker 3 (57:15):
But seriously, this is this is you, you guys are
this is impressive to you to know about about the
size and when girls with the onset of the iPhone.

Speaker 4 (57:25):
You cannot believe how many pictures of toilets or of humans.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Part of it, I don't believe I understand the proud
part of it.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
Well, I'm just telling you, when you have boys and teenagers,
you have to have a stick right there by the
stools saying break it up.

Speaker 9 (57:42):
Oh my god, special, we gotta go.

Speaker 3 (57:48):
Good morning, Hey, good.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
Morning, welcome back Pat Sullivan along here with my friend
Denny Smith, my even better friend Terry Stacey, and and
even my better better almost like a daughter to me, Allison,
did I mention Ethan?

Speaker 3 (58:25):
No? Hey, God, behind the glass.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
He's behind the glass.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
What description do you have for him?

Speaker 9 (58:32):
He's just our baby, Ethan, He's just my little boy.

Speaker 4 (58:35):
How's your breath, Ethan?

Speaker 3 (58:36):
How's you? How you doing in there with your breath?
A little less buddish little I can feel it in
my stomach, a little butteris. You can feel it. It's
made my stomach cold. We've been we've.

Speaker 4 (58:46):
Been testing a new product that advertises on w I
b C called Zelman's.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
I thought they were good.

Speaker 9 (58:53):
I'm with Terry. I kind of feel it in my tummy,
not in a bad way.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
I just know it's just cool. It's like minty, and.

Speaker 4 (59:00):
That's blocking the soul fides from the hype.

Speaker 2 (59:03):
I got into Alison's face, like in a real creepy way,
and she goes, you're being really creepy, but your breath
smells great.

Speaker 9 (59:10):
Exact exact quote, Yeah, exact quote.

Speaker 3 (59:15):
I'm burping a little bit of the parsley.

Speaker 9 (59:16):
I do have a little bit of hiccups, but I
didn't know that's because the parsley or just.

Speaker 3 (59:21):
I haven't really I don't know if anybody cares about that.

Speaker 2 (59:23):
Move on, Okay, I had to talk David Wood. David
would our program direct yes for a long time now.

Speaker 11 (59:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:31):
And I walked by his office and I could it
had his name right on his It made me think
about name plates, you know, like on your desk, do
you have one that says Terry st two.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
We all had one in the old building, but everybody
kind of here, we're more of a number, like your
number sixty eight years. Like if you'll notice you've got
your name, but you're also a giant number by your door.

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Well that's just for moving, so they from moving.

Speaker 3 (59:58):
So I know everybody only by number.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
I think people give you those someone people give you,
like when you get a job, they give you a nameplate.
I think. I think it's I've never sat one on
my desk, Like it's like maybe I will when I
start to get forgetful of who I am.

Speaker 3 (01:00:14):
Everybody here is starting. You just need to know where
everybody is because we're still trying to find each other.
And there's a whole other floor of sales and programming
and digital and corporate people, and you know, it's we're
just trying to find out where everybody is sitting.

Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
Right Well, now we know where David Wood is right
down the hall. So I was watching a documentary last
night on I don't Know, and it was about it
was it was about selling Christmas trees in New York
City and they they followed like four different people and

(01:00:50):
it's kind of crazy because they it's not they're all
stands that they set up in New York City. They're
not because there's not garden centers and you know, so
these places that have these families that have done this
for like years, and they're all kind of competitors, but
they know each other. I think it's kind of kind

(01:01:10):
of crazy how where they set them up and how
many they sell and then how much they charge because
some of them they have to bid on space if
it's like a public space, they have to be yes
the prime hot And one day, you know, they're all
on the phone and they open up, uh, and the

(01:01:31):
guy from the city is saying, who won the bid
for this spot? And so that causes a little bit
of but it was really.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
They're all families, right, I mean very family.

Speaker 2 (01:01:42):
Yes, very emotional, just like I mean, you know, everything's
very emotional.

Speaker 4 (01:01:46):
But what do they do with one hundred how big
of a space is it?

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
And like tiny? They build these racks and they're just
kind of, you know, nothing like what you'd expect in Indianapolis.

Speaker 4 (01:01:57):
Is sort of like what that's seen from a Christmas
story where they're where they're selling the trees right on
the on the street.

Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
Yeah, just right on the street, and they just kind
of kind of yesk Allison.

Speaker 9 (01:02:08):
Was it called the Merchants of Joy?

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
Yes?

Speaker 9 (01:02:11):
And it was on Prime?

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
Oh it is on Prime?

Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
Is it? Are they when they had that little tiny space?
Are the trees already wrapped and ready to go? Or
do you get a chance to actually see what the tree?

Speaker 2 (01:02:21):
They open them up, But they open them up just
you know, a few at a time. And the weird
thing is they actually they have they they bring in
like a little uh you know, little building that they
is their office, like one of those like a construction Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
It's a shack and they all.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
Sleep in there. Someone is sleeping there because they they'll
sell trees twenty four hours a day.

Speaker 4 (01:02:45):
How much were they charging for trees? Did you hear
anything about.

Speaker 2 (01:02:47):
The a seven to eight foot frasier that in India?
Is about it? You know, like is one hundred bucks
or so for a is two ninety nine oh to
ninety nine.

Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
Don't they start marking them down though as the days
get closer, don't you see? I mean you feel like,
at least in all the Hallmark movies these times I've
seen this is with the Christmas theme. They start marking
them down that we can have a sign and then
you know, you see the slash and it keeps coming
down the closer they get to Christmas. Is that true?

Speaker 4 (01:03:19):
They listen? Well, yeah, that that question. But do they
have to pay a fee to be on that place?

Speaker 5 (01:03:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:03:24):
Like so the yeah, they pay a fee. They bid
how much they're willing to pay. But then some of
them are like private spots where they've they you know,
maybe buy a business and they rent it from the
business or whatever. But they they'll have multiple little places.
But it's it was kind of fascinating. Yeah, but I
mean I think how expensive everything is in New York.

Speaker 9 (01:03:46):
Two nine dollars god, and then tracking that on the
subway to take Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
People think about that else, bikes and different things.

Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
And most of the places. I mean, if you if
you do have something right in the heart of this
any where you live, it's the size of a truly
like a closet, So you really probably wouldn't get to
have a beautiful tree.

Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
But you know what, I was surprised because I think,
because there's so many public spaces, how many big trees
that these places did. Yeah, and they were taking them
to you know, outside displays and you know lobbies of
you know, big companies and stuff. But it's really cool.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
Had you found something you loved?

Speaker 9 (01:04:27):
The merchants of joy, you know what. Oddly I on Prime.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
I've been so finally once we get done with our
first day of clearance, and I come home and then
we rich Rich Sharp, who managed our Cisros store, passed away.
And last night Beth and I went to the calling
and then I finally got home and I sat down
and Beth loves Jeopardy. I hate Jeopardy just makes me

(01:04:54):
feel stupid. But I just fell right asleep, I mean
sound asleep.

Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
Got some good sleep.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
And then I wake up and Beth was looking for
a movie and this this show said, oh we should
watch that, And so I'm watching. I'm fascinated and I
and Beth is sound as sound asleep.

Speaker 4 (01:05:13):
Hey, for those of you listening on iHeart, I just
saw that this popped up and says the sound is
better quality on iHeart, but it keeps looping. Listening to
Denny's bathroom segment for five or six times, go.

Speaker 2 (01:05:25):
Boy, uh yeah, Brian Wilkes just said, this stream sucks. Well,

summer she was there, Ken Nunn was in. They used
Ken Nunn for everything, Like you know, we're gonna call
Ken Len. It was like something throughout the camp that

Speaker 3 (01:11:01):
That first year of marriage, there's nothing like it.

Speaker 5 (01:11:04):

Speaker 4 (01:11:05):
Really, if I called my wife and said that, when
I say to it, it would have been an entirely
different And now.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
When if I said something like that to Beth, now
they don't even respond. They just look at you and
to walk away.

Speaker 3 (01:11:18):
Nothing so much funny anymore. Wow, it takes a lot,
I will say.

Speaker 6 (01:11:23):
Is So it's it's super impressive. It's golf simulator. So
you hit into a screen. It's called swing King's guy
named Larry owns it. He's super awesome. I'll get him
a little shout out, but it's.

Speaker 5 (01:11:35):
Hi, Larry, Hey Larry.

Speaker 6 (01:11:38):
He is like, it's super impressive. How accurate this stuff is.
I mean you're hitting into a screen that's about ten
feet away and there's obviously like a censor that reads it.
It reads your spin, how hard you're swinging, how fast
the ball is flying, and it is crazy. I mean,
you could even put in these golf simulators and it's
all accurate, located. It's in Greenwood, Greenwood. It's kind of

(01:11:59):
over by the play again in Greenwood. If you're familiar
with that in aellow shopping plaza, you never expect what's inside.
But the how far they've come with the golf simulators
is awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
Like David, he can't stand not golf, and he was
going to golf. It's a problem it wasn't I mean,
the weather yesterday and today would are good if it
wasn't so mushy. But yeah, this fills that hole through
the winter to get them through the spring.

Speaker 2 (01:12:22):
How much.

Speaker 3 (01:12:23):
A lot? I mean he's probably twice a week in
the summer a chim But anyway, so this is a
big deal.

Speaker 9 (01:12:30):
So did you compete?

Speaker 2 (01:12:31):
Recognize you you love it when you leaves, so you
have some alone time.

Speaker 4 (01:12:35):
So is it like a foursome? Each guy takes their
turn like a bowling league or what.

Speaker 6 (01:12:39):
There is a solo league, but I'm not quite good
enough for that. But we did the duo's league with
a buddy, and actually we played the owner of the
shop in the championship.

Speaker 3 (01:12:48):
He was the other team.

Speaker 2 (01:12:49):
So did you get like a sack or something?

Speaker 8 (01:12:52):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:12:53):
Considerable cash though, really really.

Speaker 4 (01:12:55):
How many participants were in the in the chant? Well,
how many parts?

Speaker 6 (01:12:58):
There was six teams?

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
Okay, so considerable, like tens of tens.

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):

Speaker 4 (01:13:27):
Did you get a shirt or a ribbon or anything? No,
the cash was enough though, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:13:32):
Yeah, no kidding. You know, here's a political observation.

Speaker 5 (01:13:37):
Again.

Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
We don't we don't get political on this show.

Speaker 3 (01:13:39):
Right about.

Speaker 4 (01:13:40):
The only thing we say is Rob Kendall or Tony Katz.
That's what nice political as we get.

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
So this is in retail, and you know, it's kind
of pushed me to my edge a little bit. So
we sell political ornaments. I knew you were going to
go to that political socks.

Speaker 3 (01:13:57):
Oh yeah, we talk about this the big sellers.

Speaker 2 (01:14:01):
The big sellers. And I will say, I am so
tired of people like covering up the Trump socks or
turning them around, or putting another ornament over the Trump ornament.
I I mean I am because Barack Obama, Kamala Harris,

(01:14:26):
Joe Biden, no one ever touches those. So isn't this
some kind of childish on the.

Speaker 3 (01:14:34):
You know what? It's just very he cuts deep one
way or another, one one side or the other. It's
I you know, if this is if this is the
least they can do to make a statement. It's just so,
what's the best seller.

Speaker 2 (01:14:50):
Ever? Trump by farest?

Speaker 3 (01:14:52):
I mean hating?

Speaker 2 (01:14:55):
And the thing is people that hate Trump by Trump
merchandise because they give it us like gag gifts. But
it's like it's so annoying. It's been going on for
so long and I can just say, I hear people,
I look what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna I'm gonna

(01:15:15):
turn it over. It's like, grow up, That's what I
have to say. Grow up.

Speaker 3 (01:15:22):
Oh, there's a lot of areas we need to grow up.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
I'd rather I would rather hear you talk about how
big your poop is.

Speaker 3 (01:15:31):
Oh no, my heart radio.

Speaker 4 (01:15:33):

The Champ doesn't have a lot of time for the
bones anymore. You know, I'm the Champ. We're coming right
back with more ninety three WIBC. Hey, good morning, welcome back,
Pat Sullivan, Denny Smith, Terry Stacy, Alison Lemons. Ethan is
in the producer's booth. I can see him a little
bit through the uh reflection through the glass. We're on

(01:16:43):
our brand new studio. We are just Caddy corner Caddy
Corner from UH Channel thirteen.

Speaker 4 (01:16:50):
All right, Caddy corner, Kitty corner, Kitty.

Speaker 3 (01:16:54):
Cat, you like Caddy corner corner, Kitty corner? Can I
ask you about I bought the I have the most
beautiful Christmas cactus. Got it at Alisonville and this is
my first time ever had one, And all of the
beautiful flowers are gone. Is that normal foliage looks good.

Speaker 4 (01:17:20):
They don't stay bloomed.

Speaker 3 (01:17:21):
All alone, so they just then that goes away until
forever for crys till next Christmas. Is that how this went?

Speaker 2 (01:17:27):
I think you can get a second bloom out of it.

Speaker 4 (01:17:30):
Yeah, it's short days and cool nights is really what
triggers them.

Speaker 3 (01:17:34):
They say, I don't know how to keep it happy.
I'm not kiddya.

Speaker 5 (01:17:37):
I order it.

Speaker 3 (01:17:37):
I'm moving it once a week's getting the sun. It's
I think this one's going to be a challenge. I
think they do.

Speaker 2 (01:17:46):
They're not hard because people will have them for decades.

Speaker 3 (01:17:50):
They're coming. That's what I thought.

Speaker 4 (01:17:52):
They don't like life. They grow up in the forest,
in the woods in Brazil.

Speaker 3 (01:17:57):
They're not even.

Speaker 4 (01:17:59):
Like sun and they're not a cactus. They're called Christmas cactus.
But they're from Brazil.

Speaker 3 (01:18:05):
It needs to be in the shade.

Speaker 4 (01:18:07):
I wouldn't say direct sunlight.

Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:18:09):
I've never seen them really do well in sunlight.

Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
Yeah, I mean just in the house. Treat them like
a house.

Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
And I maybe maybe that's why in the sun. Put
him in the sun.

Speaker 5 (01:18:19):
What is it?

Speaker 4 (01:18:19):
Dick said, it was sort of like the points that
it needs thirteen to fourteen hours of darkness. Oh my god,
and then then they blew my points right right.

Speaker 2 (01:18:28):
I've never owned one, so I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:18:30):
Well, you're no help.

Speaker 2 (01:18:31):
Thanks a lot, Thank you, you're the one killing the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:18:35):
Dick said that you can ruin that there's certain things
you've got to get them dark and keep them dark.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
But I don't think you do that with A. I
think that happened naturally with A. Do some research on it.

Speaker 3 (01:18:47):
Here's what I've got the right.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
I will say they continue to get more popular all
the time.

Speaker 3 (01:18:52):
That was supposed to be the segment bright light scene.

Speaker 9 (01:18:56):
There you go in sunlight, water, sun wry, and maintain
humidity with missing.

Speaker 3 (01:19:03):
Oh that sounds like a cactus, except I just wondered.
My question was about the flowering of them, because those
flowering does.

Speaker 2 (01:19:13):
Not surprise me because it is Christmas cactus and that's
kind of the thing. They bloom and then they'll stop.
What's wrong, Alisons?

Speaker 3 (01:19:24):
Okay, thanks for the call, but I think you se.

Speaker 9 (01:19:30):
Well you're on this program.

Speaker 3 (01:19:33):
Wow, So no, Waiter's my other question? Do I need
to take it? When? Do I take it out of
its little pot that it came in and move it
to a bigger.

Speaker 4 (01:19:42):
Pot when it looks like it needs leg room. It's
it's a total call.

Speaker 2 (01:19:46):
Yeah, and some people will try to. I mean you can.
I mean when when it starts to get root bound
and so like when you see circular roots, like if
you popped it up a little bit and saw that
then but of course when you do that, then you
get bigger plant when you move it to But isn't
it a real small one?

Speaker 3 (01:20:04):
It was your medium size one?

Speaker 2 (01:20:06):
Okay, so it's probably like in a six inch pop
so and you didn't repot it not yet.

Speaker 3 (01:20:12):
I thought, maybe you know, it just liked it there
and I should just leave it there for a minute.

Speaker 2 (01:20:16):
Wait, you don't want to do it, you don't.

Speaker 3 (01:20:17):
I didn't want to do My orchid was like it
needed to stay. It likes its tight little area orchids
are hard. They are hard, but I hadn't one for
about eight years, and I just loved it. So I
thought maybe I could do something with this cat.

Speaker 2 (01:20:29):
So don't put it in, don't pick a ginormous size,
just go up one size, okay, because then it.

Speaker 4 (01:20:36):
It's like checking a baby to see if they have
a dirty diaper. You just sort of lifted just a
little mint and then you know you have to change it.

Speaker 3 (01:20:43):
Okay, Okay, got it? Okay, Hey, thanks you guys appreciate it.

Wibc Hey, Jared, Hey, do you have I asked you
this before? Do you guys get a you have an
artificial tree or a fresh cut? It is artificial, artificial.
You have to think about that. That's good.

Speaker 11 (01:23:49):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:23:50):
I was talking earlier. He was watching the show. It
was a show about selling Christmas tree sellers in New York,
York City. These families, like you know, four or five
families that that have kind of run the Christmas sounds
like the mafia or something. But a seven to eight

(01:24:10):
foot Fraser for tree, which is around Indy would be
you know, for a number one premium would be like
one hundred bucks something like that, two hundred and ninety
nine dollars. I don't know how people afford. It's just
I wonder if this is why they were drawn to
the socialist mayor, because it's like, how could anyone I

(01:24:34):
don't care. I mean, I guess you just wouldn't get
a tree at two hundred and ninety nine dollars.

Speaker 12 (01:24:40):
Yeah, right, And I don't know what lights I mean,
do lights have they? Do they get more expensive.

Speaker 5 (01:24:46):
Or well, I don't even know how to lights.

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
Well, everything's gotten more expensive. I mean a lot of
the stuff that comes from China obviously has gotten hitten
by the tariffs and stuff. So I mean we definitely
saw increases. I mean, but it's never like twenty percent
on the retail It's like they'll import it at the
factory costs, so it really ends up being a few

(01:25:09):
percentage points. But definitely stuff was up, I mean without
a doubt.

Speaker 12 (01:25:13):
But you could always take a road trip and go
cut one down yourself.

Speaker 2 (01:25:18):
You know, we do have some nice tree farms in
central Indiana, and you know what, if you're a couple
of years I cut one off the Governor's mansion, off
the lawn because it looked like they're kind of crowding
a little bit. Got a nice white pine.

Speaker 6 (01:25:36):
You could probably talk about trees all day, all day.

Speaker 2 (01:25:39):
At least till one.

Speaker 4 (01:25:40):
Jarrett, you did get the joke that he went on
the governor's mansion, went right over it went right over
his head. That's the Houston any too much time in Houston.

Speaker 2 (01:25:49):
I went to the governor that would be illegal to
go on the governor's lawn.

Speaker 4 (01:25:53):
And then he cut it down tole the tree.

Speaker 12 (01:25:55):
Give me a few more weeks, maybe a few more months.
I'll get there. I'll be at your guys' level soon.

Speaker 2 (01:26:00):
Thanks a lot, man, Thanks, see you later. Fine, Jared, Fine, there's.

Speaker 4 (01:26:04):
A slow talker there, close talker.

Speaker 2 (01:26:09):
Well, some folks see that's grown up men.

Speaker 5 (01:26:11):
Those stud just little boys.

Speaker 1 (01:26:14):
That really the only difference is the price of our calls.
We're going for macho symbols like guns, running shoes, pickup trucks,
hun ducks, and power dues.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
Power to powd Hour number three of Saturday's Home and
Garden Program ruction in part by the Michellis Corporation. Water storms, firing,
wet basements, life happens Micheleiss happens to help you through it. Hi,
my name is pat Hi, pat name Alison. Nice to

(01:26:50):
see you.

Speaker 9 (01:26:50):
My name's Danny pat Hi, Denny.

Speaker 2 (01:26:52):
Denny, Paul Denny. Tell us about your Christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:26:57):
It was a sweet Christmas. It was at Andy's house
this year, and he went over and picked out and
your son Andy, my son. My mom is ninety five
and a half, soon to be ninety six. And she
started telling stories from when she was a girl living
in Santa Barbara, California, during the war World War two.
Incredible stories and the first time I'd heard them, and

(01:27:19):
I've heard a lot of her stories. But anyway, that
was sort of fun. And then the grandkids got to
hear that we gave the kids. Do you know what
the Russian dolls are?

Speaker 5 (01:27:28):
Like?

Speaker 4 (01:27:28):
The nesting dolls? But we did that with their gift
and there were like eight different packages that they had
to work their way through. It was fun to watch
kids work through that. Anyway, it was a good, good Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:27:41):
So was that a Christmas Day or your Christmas Eve? Family?

Speaker 4 (01:27:45):
That was actually on Tuesday, because everybody's busy on Christmas Day,
so that was on Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (01:27:51):
Really, what were you busy doing?

Speaker 4 (01:27:55):
Not us the family. Oh, my mom was doing something
with some friends of hers.

Speaker 2 (01:27:59):
What was said Christmas was Tuesday.

Speaker 3 (01:28:01):
Christmas, Christmas Thursday, Oh, Thursday.

Speaker 2 (01:28:05):
So you did this on Tuesday.

Speaker 4 (01:28:06):
We did this on Tuesdays. Look, when families start to grow,
pat you have, you've been able to keep all twenty
two or twenty one together. That isn't always going to
be the case.

Speaker 2 (01:28:15):
Yeah, it is roll fall star on my payroll.

Speaker 4 (01:28:18):
Okay, that went well, Ellison, you want to help me.

Speaker 9 (01:28:20):
On now, I'm with you. Actually it was a miracle.
We got together all on Christmas Day, and I was
really surprised because, like you said, when you get older,
people start getting married and there's other families you.

Speaker 3 (01:28:30):
Got to there's in laws or outlaws.

Speaker 9 (01:28:32):
And sometimes they're out of state then and it gets
a little harder. But yeah, we were very lucky this year.
Everyone got together.

Speaker 6 (01:28:37):
It was sometimes really nice.

Speaker 4 (01:28:39):
So sometimes the best gift you give people is not
put any pressure on them to do anything on any
particular day. But anyway, it was. It was really fun. Good,
it's really fun.

Speaker 2 (01:28:49):
You know. The nice thing about most of our family
is in town, which is I know is a blessing.
I mean, all of our kids are. It's a pretty
rare path, it is. And even the uh our children's spouse,
those families are either in Indianapolis or close or in Indiana,

(01:29:10):
so we don't.

Speaker 4 (01:29:10):
Have any I thought Charlie was in Saint Louis.

Speaker 2 (01:29:13):
Charlie is in Saint Louis. Both of his parents have
passed away. His brothers came over earlier in the season
and they rode the train and stuff, so spend a
lot of time. But yeah, they'll obviously do that.

Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
What I think is funny about Christmas Day is the
people that reach out to you who you have not
seen for years. All of a sudden you'll get a
text message or something, and it's really sort of a
neat day because people are, hey, I wonder what Tommy's doing,
or I wonder what Denny's doing, And all of a sudden,
being you get a text message, come in and then
you start a whole text thread with people you just

(01:29:45):
haven't talked to you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:46):
You know, I actually because that does happen. I get
a lot of you know, old WIBC people will text
me on Christmas Day and I'll I send them all.
I kind of have a copy and paste thing that
I send them back, which is how'd you get this number?
Do you hear from Charlie D? I do, Yeah, yeah,

(01:30:08):
Charlie is our Charlie. Not only now you know I
hear from on the holidays, but he he works at
the church I'm at, so now I have to see
him on the altar during Christmas Mass.

Speaker 4 (01:30:22):
You know, one of the pictures I saw said, hey,
you owe me money. One of the pictures that I
snagged off the wall or Alison or Kylin.

Speaker 2 (01:30:29):
Did at the old building.

Speaker 4 (01:30:30):
At the old Building was you me, Dick Crumb and
Charlie d. We always had an on air producer there
and that was at the five hundred festival parade when
we were up on the Meridian.

Speaker 2 (01:30:41):
That was that was a good photo.

Speaker 4 (01:30:43):
That was a good photo.

Speaker 2 (01:30:44):
That smart grabbing that.

Speaker 4 (01:30:46):
There's a lot of things still in that building that
I have heard that down in the basement there are
millions of dollars worth of original purchase price radio equipment.
Of course it's not stated the antic you can't even
use it. I have found that problem at the studio
that I have on the farm. I have micro processors,

(01:31:06):
but they're the old school, so when something goes wrong,
there's there's no parts for them. You basically pull them
out and put something else, and it's cheaper than trying
to fix them.

Speaker 9 (01:31:17):
That technology, that darn technology.

Speaker 4 (01:31:22):
Now you're living growth at Allison. I'm surprised you've got
your sanity. Every day is a new challenge for y'all.

Speaker 9 (01:31:28):
We're all working through it. You know. I have next
week off. I'm very wait.

Speaker 2 (01:31:31):
So question for you, because you're off, when did you
schedule that? How how long it advanced? Do you have
to get to get a vacation around this place.

Speaker 9 (01:31:42):
I usually try to try to, especially for the holidays,
get around probably the first of November, just to plant
out the holidays, and they are it's hard. There's only
so many fill ins for our producers, so it's kind
of have to juggle a lot because we share producers
between stations as well. It's not just dead WC producers.
It's WWC the fan everybody else.

Speaker 2 (01:32:04):
Have you ever run the board or produced another something
on the fan?

Speaker 9 (01:32:11):
Not the fan? No, I'm probably the only producer who
hasn't done the fan, but that's because I have no
idea about sports or any of that. But I guess
you want to have to. I just.

Speaker 4 (01:32:23):
Don't Allison, do you think the Colts will make Do
you think that will make the playoffs this year in
the Colts.

Speaker 2 (01:32:30):
It's not in the It's not in the.

Speaker 4 (01:32:31):
Colt Allison had an opinion. I was trying.

Speaker 9 (01:32:34):
I don't have an opinion, but from what everyone else says,
I would say, no, it.

Speaker 2 (01:32:38):
Is not in their hands. So I believe Houston has
to lose and the Colts have to win out.

Speaker 4 (01:32:45):
Is that correct?

Speaker 5 (01:32:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:32:48):
I think that is exactly it. I think it's one
team that has to lose out and they have to
win out.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
So it really is unbelievable. And I mean what loosing
your quarterback in this league is. I mean, and here
you you had Jones playing with already a broken leg.
So but I still thought with eight wins, because generally
ten wins, you're in.

Speaker 6 (01:33:12):
The playoffs, you can at least get a wild card.

Speaker 2 (01:33:15):
And to think that, how to that we could not
come up with ten wins? So they have lost six
out of seven I believe, Yeah, four year old quarterback.

Speaker 9 (01:33:28):
Are the fans happy with Philip?

Speaker 2 (01:33:32):
I think I think you know what's interested in it well?
And I think the bar is uh, probably pretty low,
because I mean you know that's got ten kids and
a grandchild.

Speaker 3 (01:33:43):
Yeah, I do.

Speaker 9 (01:33:45):
Story, So I I was invested in that, did you guys?

Speaker 6 (01:33:47):
Hear all the kind of juice around him coming back,
like kind of why it made sense for him?

Speaker 3 (01:33:53):
Why?

Speaker 6 (01:33:55):
So obviously having all those kids, he was actually a
semi finalist for the whole of Fame this year, and
by playing, he then took himself out of that because
you have to be five years to exactly. But what
also happens at five years is you are no longer
an NFL employee anymore, therefore, meaning you do not get

(01:34:16):
benefits through the NFL any longer. So by him knowing
his Hall of Fame, he activated five more years of
health insurance, all these insurance things for him and all
of his kids.

Speaker 2 (01:34:30):
So social security decisions would with the money that he
has banked over a long career, right, multi multi millionaire.
So that's interesting.

Speaker 6 (01:34:40):
But he came back, and I mean, I'm I don't
quote me on this part. I know that that part
is true, but I'm pretty sure he came back to
take a league minimum as well, which I had anticipated
they were going to have to pay him a pretty
penny to come back and know that Hall of Fame status,
you know, so for.

Speaker 4 (01:34:56):
Every year they play, they build up credits within the
pension system. There's alt the pension system that you can't
qualify for until age fifty five.

Speaker 2 (01:35:03):
I can't believe that that he would come back for
health insurance.

Speaker 9 (01:35:09):
I could.

Speaker 6 (01:35:10):
I mean eight kids, but yeah, ain't of his kids
all get the health insurance. So maybe it's not for him.
Maybe it's maybe to help them out in the long run.

Speaker 5 (01:35:19):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:35:20):
I don't know. I don't have many kids.

Speaker 4 (01:35:23):
That'll change too.

Speaker 5 (01:35:23):
Son.

Speaker 2 (01:35:24):
Then you're then you're supposed to go then I know, yes, sorry, okay,
Uh you know what? Uh tell me about the phones
that we have here? So do you not have a
call screener? So how do you know who's on the phones?

Speaker 6 (01:35:41):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (01:35:42):
Well, are you just writing it down a piece of paper?

Speaker 3 (01:35:45):
Lately?

Speaker 6 (01:35:46):
Been going by memory. But as soon as I figure
out how to do everything that I have time to
write things down on paper in between, I will start
writing it down.

Speaker 4 (01:35:55):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (01:35:55):
So usually typically when you call into the radius station,
we have about eight lines in Ethan. We used to
have a computer system where we could type in who's
on the phone, and then pack could see. Oh, look,
Bob's online one. We can talk to Bob, but we
don't have that program in our computers.

Speaker 2 (01:36:10):
I don't even have a phone out here to see.

Speaker 3 (01:36:12):
Is it coming to j M V call?

Speaker 6 (01:36:14):
I have not seen him on it.

Speaker 9 (01:36:16):
He said he's going to call a little later. Okay,
So yeah, if you are calling, it's.

Speaker 2 (01:36:21):
Just how many lines do we have?

Speaker 6 (01:36:23):
Now we it's the same phone system we don't have.
It's on the other side of the board from me.

Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
So it's a long So it's a stretch for you.
So you instead just don't answer them. I try who's
on hold right now?

Speaker 6 (01:36:42):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (01:36:43):
Charles sounds about right?

Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
Yeah, okay, so we could take it.

Speaker 6 (01:36:52):
We could take a break whenever you're ready.

Speaker 5 (01:36:54):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:36:54):
No, I'm thinking about that right now. And I'm just
thinking about you know. I think in times like this,
you start to think about my life, retirement, the mistakes
I've made. Should I have stayed in school? I think
about my bowllying professor at IU a lot.

Speaker 4 (01:37:11):
Let's open this up to the YouTube channel they did.
They're asking is Terry gone using the plunger again? Let's
talk about Pat's life.

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
Terry was getting load.

Speaker 9 (01:37:23):
But I will say you know how this show is
the perfect metaphor of what this week usually is like
between Christmas in New Year's and warck. You just you're
kind of just here. You've used your words up for
the year, you know, you used up your energy, your
mental capacity. So we're just here visiting.

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
We're here in the moment, right, we don't really have
much to say.

Speaker 3 (01:37:49):
Well, I just looked back in for glue sticks.

Speaker 4 (01:37:54):
That got really melancholy.

Speaker 2 (01:37:56):
Melancholly.

Speaker 3 (01:37:58):
You know what, when we move, lot's gone.

Speaker 2 (01:38:01):
Yeah, yeah, I need a break, knock it off.

Speaker 9 (01:38:04):
Oh man, we did have the movers you move all
our craft corner stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:38:08):
So are we having craft corner? We are having got
what about something?

Speaker 3 (01:38:13):
Great glue gun you guys had We have the great, big, good,
good glue gun that you all brought, you know, Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:38:20):
We have a rule here at the what's theme is it?
Radio one?

Speaker 3 (01:38:24):
Radio one?

Speaker 2 (01:38:25):
Radio one building? No food or drink in the studios.
But they did not think about glue guns, It's right.

Speaker 9 (01:38:35):
And craft craft corner helmets.

Speaker 5 (01:38:37):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (01:38:38):
We're coming right back with the ninety three w IBC. Hey,
good morning, welcome back. How's everything going. How's your Christmas week?
Today's Saturday. I'm just telling you that because I that

(01:38:58):
weekend thing. So Thursday was.

Speaker 4 (01:39:03):
Christmas Easter, Yeah, Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:39:06):
So Wednesday was Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve.

Speaker 3 (01:39:10):
How are we doing so far? The next week?

Speaker 5 (01:39:12):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
Next week? Next Wednesday is New Year's Eve? Okay, and
then Thursday is New Year's Day.

Speaker 2 (01:39:17):
And then because usually the second that's when everybody goes
back to work, but it's gonna be a Friday, why
not people just take that off? Yeah, so people really
aren't going to go back till the fifth.

Speaker 3 (01:39:30):
True is that when kids go back probably probably probably,
I feel.

Speaker 9 (01:39:35):
Like their breaks are getting longer. The kid like kids, the.

Speaker 3 (01:39:38):
Breaks are getting longer because they go back to school sooner,
which is crazy.

Speaker 9 (01:39:42):
I rather, just being a student, I would rather go
back a little later in the summer.

Speaker 2 (01:39:46):
The only thing I like about how to do math
they're schedule is I do like like when we went
to school after Labor Day. I mean, besides, I mean,
if you're in Catholic school, you get the occasional Holy Day,
but you weren't getting off until Thanksgiving.

Speaker 3 (01:40:06):
Oh yeah, there's no break you have like a whole
week or a couple of days, A couple of days
you remember you were in school as well.

Speaker 2 (01:40:14):
Uh, so we would get we we'd go through Wednesday
and we would be off Thursday Friday.

Speaker 3 (01:40:19):
Ye did that?

Speaker 5 (01:40:20):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (01:40:21):
Now they have? There was no fall break?

Speaker 3 (01:40:23):
Are you sure? What about teachers when there were teachers days?

Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
What they call it teachers institute or something, teacher's institute?

Speaker 4 (01:40:32):
Did you have six week greeting periods or nine week
greeting people?

Speaker 2 (01:40:35):
Oh, Danny, you're so cute. I don't know what I
wouldn't remember.

Speaker 4 (01:40:39):
Well, you're remembering things from that. I thought you would remember.
How you got report cards?

Speaker 2 (01:40:42):
I think we got Uh, I don't know. I just
remember the priest used to come in and and give
him to us, and he would call her name, and
he'd pretend like he looked at him and he just
shook his head, shook his head.

Speaker 3 (01:40:58):
How do they do report cards now? It all online? Yeah,
I'm sure I bet it is. Still have to sign
them because parents always had to sign.

Speaker 2 (01:41:05):
Them when they were paper one time.

Speaker 9 (01:41:07):
But parents now have their own logins so they you
can't like fib anymore and have to take you.

Speaker 4 (01:41:12):
Tommy, if you're listening, you forge dad's name so many
times on your report card my brother was a perfect
forger of my dad's signature. Yeah, Tommy could forge anything.

Speaker 2 (01:41:25):
The uh it is the true kid. You can't kids
can't really do I mean get away with Yeah. The
communication is constant now, I mean think. I mean for
a teacher to pick up a phone and call a landline,
you had to be really bad pretty much. They just
handled it in house. Yeah, I was handled in house.

Speaker 9 (01:41:46):
Oh, they can't do that anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:41:48):
No, their laws now, and I yeah, I can't do
it any way. They're going to be coming back soon.
Kids will so stop flying through those speed zones pretty soon.
Are those school zones? Everybody's always like kids are out
of school. I can go forty five miles an hour
now through the school zone.

Speaker 2 (01:42:06):
I actually like how they have the school zones now
because it's just in the instead of saying all.

Speaker 3 (01:42:12):
Day, yeah, just a flashing light from yeah, from four
thirty or something to four thirty.

Speaker 5 (01:42:18):
Yeah, it's like.

Speaker 4 (01:42:20):
You obviously don't live in Hamilton County. Carmel does it
all day, seven thirty in the morning till five or
seven o'clock at night, and but Westfield doesn't, Noblesfield doesn't it.
Certainly Indianapolis doesn't do it. But Carmel is all freaking day.

Speaker 2 (01:42:36):
But they're good. That's that way. It's a revenue stream.

Speaker 4 (01:42:39):
Not only that, they have this thing that tells you
what your speed limit is as you're coming into the zone.

Speaker 3 (01:42:44):
I like those, I gotta say, I kind of do
like them. They slow me down.

Speaker 2 (01:42:49):
And I like to try to match because I I
want I just need peop. I want, I mean, I
need to be told I'm good, right.

Speaker 3 (01:42:59):
And in my life it was.

Speaker 4 (01:43:02):
So you want people to lie to you. I want
people to like me lie to you.

Speaker 2 (01:43:06):
Oh, oh, so you want to know what I got
beat for Christmas?

Speaker 3 (01:43:10):
I do hope it was good. Did you get pajamas.

Speaker 2 (01:43:14):
Off of the No, I cannot buy anything from the
store for good rule does not count.

Speaker 5 (01:43:21):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:43:22):
She doesn't really like jewelry. Okay, but I.

Speaker 5 (01:43:26):
Did get.

Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
I did get a nice little thing with the kids.

Speaker 3 (01:43:33):
Yeah, that was nice.

Speaker 4 (01:43:37):
What did you get her this year?

Speaker 2 (01:43:38):
Well, so we Uh she got a new car this year?
She got an aff Yeah, we did get something I
regifted that Uh Accura. It doesn't you can't you.

Speaker 3 (01:43:56):
Got her car?

Speaker 2 (01:43:56):
She got a car for Christmas earlier.

Speaker 9 (01:44:00):
Oh, I'm sorry, but it doesn't got a new car
this year.

Speaker 2 (01:44:04):
It doesn't have Siri. You can't hook it up to
serious radio. How crazy the car was, Like, it's weird.
I don't know how it's expensive.

Speaker 3 (01:44:13):
Well, most of them come with it and you get
that trial.

Speaker 2 (01:44:15):
First and then you it has to go through Apple
Play or something. It has to go through her phone. Well,
she has one of those RF purses, so she gets
in that. You can't have the rate, you know, got.

Speaker 3 (01:44:26):
The security won't let your phone or anything get through
that part.

Speaker 2 (01:44:30):
So she's been listening to Tony Katz. Oh that's been
driving her crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:44:34):
No, she should listen to Sean Coplan Christmas music in
the morning. It's all gone.

Speaker 2 (01:44:40):
So anyways, anyway, you can buy an adapter. So that
was her present, an adaptor. Yes, that you can. You
can retrofit and Accura's great.

Speaker 3 (01:44:51):
That was a very thoughtful present.

Speaker 2 (01:44:53):
Yes, and she really loved it, which most people would
get in trouble for giving their wife something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:44:58):
No, no, that's a thoughtful gift. What's she get for you?

Speaker 12 (01:45:03):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:45:03):
You know, I got some underwear. Yeah, I did get
socks and underwear.

Speaker 3 (01:45:07):
We all need it everything, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:45:08):
Actually, the big present T shirts and really been going through.

Speaker 3 (01:45:13):
The T shirts. They start to as soon as they start.
You gotta throw T shirts.

Speaker 4 (01:45:20):
T shirts that you would wear under a regular shirt.

Speaker 2 (01:45:23):
Under a shirt. You can call it an undershirt or
a T shirt. I think that's the same, Pines or
don't you think?

Speaker 4 (01:45:30):
Okay, but I was trying to get the idea whether
it said Sullivan on it or.

Speaker 2 (01:45:33):
Really Oh okay, gotcha? Yeah, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (01:45:37):
I haven't seen anything but something with Sullivan on it.

Speaker 2 (01:45:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:45:41):
I think that helps you remember your name.

Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
So and the kids, we just give them cash now
that's what they want. So and then and then the babies.
We can still grab stuff from the store from our
toy department, so we're not banned from that, so we
can do that.

Speaker 3 (01:45:58):
That rules broken for the babies. Yeah, okay, well that's
just like a mighty nine Christmas craft corner is coming
up Christmas. Yes, we're going to do New Year's Eve.
We're going to make a kissing ball, because that's what
New Year's is all about, isn't it. It's about kissing.
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:46:14):
You know what was weird this year at the store.

Speaker 3 (01:46:17):
A lot of kissing, A.

Speaker 2 (01:46:18):
Lot of kissing among the employees, and I'm about had it.

Speaker 3 (01:46:22):
That's why everybody gets sick.

Speaker 2 (01:46:23):
Yeah, we had so many requests and it's always seems
like it's tied to the internet somehow. Yeah, but so
many requests for fresh missletoe. Oh and we never did before.
I mean we would we look at we would get
this crummy dried well yeah, dried missiletoe, and then you

(01:46:45):
can get fake kissing balls.

Speaker 5 (01:46:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:46:48):
But I don't know how many times are heard over
the radio do we have fresh missiletoe? And I'm thinking, Okay,
what what influencer was doing this this year?

Speaker 3 (01:46:59):
It's poison mistle toys. Toy is very mistletoe is very
poisoned to know to your dog and cat, and it
will kill them instantly right on site.

Speaker 2 (01:47:10):
Mine won't kill mine.

Speaker 3 (01:47:12):
So you don't have fresh mistletoe.

Speaker 2 (01:47:14):
And I don't have real dogs, but I have fake dogs.

Speaker 4 (01:47:17):
He really does you know that missletoe is one of
the few parasites that also can do photosynthesis, now that
it will process its own food source from the atmosphere.
But it's a parasite. It needs another living thing to
live off.

Speaker 2 (01:47:34):
Of milete So okay, when we come back is a
craft corner, Okay, then when we come back after that,
Allison's gonna tell us the tradition of missletoe and how
the hell that got started.

Speaker 9 (01:47:49):
I can't wait.

Speaker 2 (01:47:51):
Gosh, people are gonna be you talk about holding an audience,
because that's what you do in radio. Say hey, next segment,
Denny's gonna pull his pants down, you know, and you know,
and then people wait, and then you just forget that.
You said that that's what I would do, and I
truly do forget.

Speaker 9 (01:48:11):
What are we talking about?

Speaker 2 (01:48:11):
This is a horrible well, yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (01:48:14):
Need to wrap.

Speaker 2 (01:48:16):
You're contributing anything to it.

Speaker 4 (01:48:18):
I'm telling you that missiletoe grabs its water and its
food source off of another planet. That okay, you had
it's poisonous, but it's.

Speaker 2 (01:48:26):
I said, you're doing photo to the conversation.

Speaker 3 (01:48:30):
Bore the hell out of the conversation. We need to
take a break. You're listening to the Home and Garden showing.

Speaker 2 (01:48:36):
Wait, wait, Alison.

Speaker 9 (01:48:37):
Has something Craft Corners.

Speaker 2 (01:48:38):
Next ninety three w ib cut.

Speaker 14 (01:48:55):
Of meat, Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages.

Speaker 2 (01:49:06):
Yes, we have so missed this segment, but it is
back for the final segment of the year. It's Craft
Corner by currently unsponsored.

Speaker 3 (01:49:18):
Currently unsponsored, but still I hope that you'll like it.
So guys, hi, and thank you for joining us. Danny,
tell us what we've got people that are up and
on and let us know who they are.

Speaker 2 (01:49:29):
And that's my job.

Speaker 3 (01:49:31):
Oh it's your job. Okay, well somebody's job today because
it is New Year's Eve nearly, and it's all about kissing.
We're gonna make a kissing ball so you can hold
it up as you walk around your parties and hold
it up and get a smooch.

Speaker 9 (01:49:49):
This is my favorite kind of kisses, right, and then
you can eat the urshy kiss right off the ball.

Speaker 3 (01:49:56):
Okay. So what we have is a round Christmas ornament
plastic which you can get for seventy five percent off
most places, different sizes, the little kids. I think kids
would like making these two. You're gonna need bags of
Hershey's kisses, okay, her She's because oh you're over there, Denny,
what's going on over there? You're gonna need any kind

(01:50:18):
of anything you want to add to your kissing ball,
including this fantastic silver rope which I love to hang
the kissing ball. There's also ribbon, sparkly ribbon all the
Christmas ribbon is all fifty to seventy five percent off
right now, so you're gonna get lots of good deals.
And then you're gonna need these other little things like

(01:50:38):
this Happy New Year gold chains and things that you'll
find really cheap right now.

Speaker 2 (01:50:43):
So you'll take a good Dana says, happy good morning friends.

Speaker 3 (01:50:47):
Hi Dana. Dana is the one that told us that
Danny Paul was on national television with the Danny Nicks Group.
Oh okay, so anyway, put this right here so you
can see it. You're gonna need your plastic ornaments that
you can get. I choose these instead of styrofoam because
styrofoam doesn't do well with the hot glue. I got it.

(01:51:09):
Oh soon, you're not talking? Well, oh here, come over here.
I want you to be able to speak.

Speaker 9 (01:51:16):
Were in mic issues. No, that's a good tip with
the styrofoam. With this styrofoam, and you also told me
to we're using hot glue. Use the little tiny hot
glue ones because a lot of hot glue's gonna melt
it right off.

Speaker 3 (01:51:27):
That's right.

Speaker 5 (01:51:28):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:51:28):
And then basically, you guys, you know what to do.
You're just going to glue the bottom of each of
these Hershey's kisses onto the plastic ornament. All right, that's it.
You're gonna glue those all the way around. Oh they
smell good? Do they smell good? Give it a smell.
And then once it's done, I have to glue those
all around. They glue really quickly and easily. Tip You

(01:51:52):
can set those in a plastic or some kind of
a cup and then it kind of holds it into
the cup for you. It's like a stand while you
glue these around on the ball. Once you get them
all glued around, basically, you're going to then because it's
an ornament, it has a little hook at the top.
You're gonna just take your rope, your silver rope or
your twine or whatever it is, loop it through that

(01:52:13):
top of the ornament, make sure it's good and secure,
and then you're just going to maybe put You can
drape Happy New Year in that gold necklace that we found.
You can also use anything that's silver and celebratory at
the top, like this tensil at the top, just to
make it a little prettier, and then you can hang

(01:52:35):
it and have a kissing ball like you have your
missile toe, or you can just carry it around your
party and just start necking.

Speaker 5 (01:52:41):
Wow, now you got my attention.

Speaker 9 (01:52:44):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (01:52:44):
That's to day.

Speaker 2 (01:52:45):
Judy said, love this. Hey cool birthday gift would be
a two cup measuring cup filled half with kisses and
the other with Hershey hugs and you give hugs and kisses.

Speaker 3 (01:52:56):
Oh, that's a good one.

Speaker 2 (01:52:58):
This is a good one, and says y'all look great
in your new pad. Happy New Year to everyone. Gail,
good to see you before the New Year's Teresa, love it.
Thanks ladies, as always, you guys rock. Dana says, so cute,
Tammy says what a fun idea? A good one, and

(01:53:18):
Susie says, why is Denny still on the show? All right,
I made that one up there you go.

Speaker 3 (01:53:25):
Thank you all so much for watching. This is very simple, easy,
the kids will like doing it. Remember to use your
little list of your glue guns so you don't get something,
so you don't burn something or melted chocolate. And it's
pretty inexpensive and it's just kind of a fun craft
for New Year's. You're kissing ball, everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:53:42):
No, we sell a ton of those kind of kissing balls,
like green and I've never I just see how many
we sell. I see the report, But I wonder is
it all dudes buying those.

Speaker 3 (01:53:53):
Hying the kissing balls? Yeah, I don't know. I bet
it's a girly thing, you think so, I don't know.
I think it is Allison.

Speaker 9 (01:54:02):
I bet it's a flirtatious person thing.

Speaker 3 (01:54:07):
Oh, you can make them, you know what. You can
buy the little balls and you keep that in your pocket,
you know what I mean, and just pull it out. Oh,
you know, there's little tiny balls that you can buy,
but maybe six or seven or eight.

Speaker 2 (01:54:21):
I bet you could strap a piece of wood to
your back and just like let it hang right.

Speaker 5 (01:54:26):
Over your head.

Speaker 9 (01:54:28):
Well there's an idea.

Speaker 2 (01:54:29):
Yeah, maybe that would be my craft.

Speaker 3 (01:54:32):
Bethell love that. She'll see that coming. She'll she won't
be able to wait to give you a big smooch.

Speaker 2 (01:54:38):
Again. She doesn't even talk. She just kind of like
has this look and walks away.

Speaker 3 (01:54:45):
I know, because we've been married.

Speaker 2 (01:54:46):
So long, you know, it's her favorite thing. When people
come in the she works in the Yellow House, and
they'll go your pat's wife. He is so funny, and
she's like, yeah, yeah, really funny.

Speaker 3 (01:55:00):
He's funny. We're laughing all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:55:03):
Yeah, she just walks away. I literally disappoint her every day.

Speaker 3 (01:55:11):
Oh No, I don't think that's true, or she'd have
been long gone.

Speaker 2 (01:55:15):
I think she just stand for the money.

Speaker 3 (01:55:16):
Well that's a possibility. I mean I would with the
Florida place.

Speaker 2 (01:55:23):
Oh yeah, you know, we're coming right back with more
ninety three w IBC. Good morning, Hi, how's everybody doing good.

Speaker 3 (01:55:45):
I'm hearing that voice and I have run into so
much AI music that I absolutely love.

Speaker 2 (01:55:55):
What's the difference between like AI music that is being
produced by AI?

Speaker 3 (01:56:02):
It's produced by someone and then they put a voice in.
There's one guy that's he put in. He wanted to
hear a Michael Jackson song, but he wanted to hear
it in this particular voice that he created. They wanted
to hear it in a jazzy form. And I'll tell
you it's pretty awful stuff. It's pretty good stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:56:25):
But it's scary.

Speaker 3 (01:56:25):
Well it's scary, of course, but it is the stuff
that's being produced. It's pretty good. I understand the fear
among music artists, and that's where I'm hearing. Most of
it is from country country music.

Speaker 9 (01:56:41):
I think country is probably the easier one to maybe
mimic right now. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:56:46):
I don't know. Hey, who's got my phone?

Speaker 9 (01:56:50):
I don't have your phone?

Speaker 2 (01:56:51):
But I don't have your phone.

Speaker 9 (01:56:52):
It does have my headset, I do.

Speaker 6 (01:56:55):
Is it the phone that's right under the mic?

Speaker 5 (01:56:57):
There?

Speaker 3 (01:56:58):
No, that's Allison's phone.

Speaker 2 (01:57:00):
I do that last time too? Did I do that
last segment?

Speaker 9 (01:57:03):
I have no idea.

Speaker 3 (01:57:05):
Maybe yes I did.

Speaker 2 (01:57:08):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 9 (01:57:09):
No, you're fine. We're figuring it out.

Speaker 2 (01:57:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:57:12):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:57:13):
Hey, have you ever heard of the podcast Nate Spangle?

Speaker 3 (01:57:16):
Oh? Sure, Oh, he's had him on the first a
few times? Did I sang?

Speaker 2 (01:57:21):
Yeah? And I just wanted to thank him because he
did a podcast or I did his podcast and the
full podcast is about I don't know, an hour hour
and a half I think, and uh, we talked, you know,
just about business and the whole bit, but then he
cut it up in different things and one of the
segments was about the Sullivan Express train and how it

(01:57:44):
started and all that stuff. I have never all the
stuff I've done in my life, I have never had
more people ask me about something than his podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:57:54):
It's cool. He's got a lot of followers he does.
That's the thing now is podcasts. Yeah, podcast hot hot, hot, hot,
hot hot. There's a lot of them. You're going to
do one, aren't you.

Speaker 4 (01:58:05):
When are you and Joe going to do it? You
and Joe would do a good job, you know what.

Speaker 2 (01:58:08):
I think we're going to uh as soon as Allison
gets the equipment on order and gets it set up,
we have the spot. We're going to be in the
grill Palace.

Speaker 9 (01:58:18):
Oh perfect.

Speaker 3 (01:58:19):
And I really don't know think about an hour an
hour podcast? Half hour?

Speaker 2 (01:58:23):
You know, I think you just go until you're done, right,
And that's the great thing if this show, if this
show was a podcast, it would have ended at like
ten fifteen this morning because we were.

Speaker 3 (01:58:40):
Done, Alison.

Speaker 4 (01:58:42):
The product that he probably needs is call a road
cast or if you looked at them.

Speaker 9 (01:58:48):
I'm just now finding out about this, so okay, I
am googling.

Speaker 4 (01:58:52):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:58:53):
Wait, you didn't get it on Amazon.

Speaker 2 (01:58:55):
You didn't know that you're the executive producer of the
Sullivan Hardware and.

Speaker 9 (01:58:58):
Garden podcast at this position?

Speaker 3 (01:59:01):
Yeah, because you know he'll pay you good.

Speaker 2 (01:59:02):
Yeah, you know the uh you know what the name
of the podcast is? Nuts?

It is going to be something. Don't miss this special
on Denny Smith. We're coming right back ninety three WIBC.

Speaker 3 (02:00:02):
Hey, hey you're back.

Speaker 2 (02:00:05):
What are you gonna do for New Year's Eve?

Speaker 12 (02:00:07):
That's a great question, you know.

Speaker 2 (02:00:08):
A single Yeah, go out and like, yeah, so where
are you going?

Speaker 12 (02:00:16):
That's a great question. I'm open to suggestions. But the
last two years, I've been in two different states the
last two years and I've done absolutely nothing. So and
I'm alright with that sometimes.

Speaker 3 (02:00:29):
So if it's.

Speaker 12 (02:00:31):
Worthy of doing, if I feel like it's right, if
it's necessary, I'll go after it.

Speaker 2 (02:00:36):
It's never necessary, Oh it's not. No. You know, back
in the day when my parents, when I was a kid,
all these places would have like you would go to
a hotel and you'd pay a certain amount of money,
and you know, it was I think those are kind
of gone by the wayside. I mean, does anybody do
that anymore? Like where are you, Danny? You know I'm

(02:00:58):
talking about They can't.

Speaker 4 (02:01:00):
Yes, And sometimes they would do it local and sometimes
they do it far away. They just like I remember
the folks talking about jumping on the train to go
up to Chicago and they'd stay there all week and
then come back.

Speaker 2 (02:01:11):
Yeah, but there was always like just more of an
organized like where now you just go out to dinner
or something like that. It was just more of this,
you know, come down to the Hyatt for one hundred
and twenty dollars. It includes a champagne.

Speaker 9 (02:01:23):
I'm doing that this year?

Speaker 5 (02:01:24):
You are?

Speaker 9 (02:01:24):
Yeah, I think I think it's either the regions or
it's a or actually I need to look that up.

Speaker 2 (02:01:31):
So they do somewhere.

Speaker 9 (02:01:34):
I didn't buy the tickets. It's somewhere downtown. But I've
never might.

Speaker 2 (02:01:37):
Be with a bunch of people my age.

Speaker 9 (02:01:39):
I know, I'm kind of excited for it. It's supposed
to be like a casino night thing, and you're supposed
to get dressed up, and there's supposed to be free champagne,
And I thought those were all I've never been to one.
I'm excited. I feel like a real adult.

Speaker 2 (02:01:53):
Will you take Jared with you?

Speaker 9 (02:01:55):
Sure? Along, I'm sure.

Speaker 5 (02:01:56):

Speaker 9 (02:01:56):
It's super expensive.

Speaker 2 (02:01:58):
Got nothing.

Speaker 6 (02:01:59):
Imagine Jay, he'd probably look just like a clean killer.

Speaker 4 (02:02:03):
Oh yeah, I think you would look really sharp in
a tuxedo.

Speaker 11 (02:02:07):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (02:02:08):
I could fall for him in a minute.

Speaker 6 (02:02:10):
Heartbreaker Again.

Speaker 2 (02:02:13):
I'd like to make people feel uncomfortable.

Speaker 4 (02:02:17):

kind of thing.

get like a photo booth and there's you know, arcade
games and live music and campaign all that stuff.

Uh? I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (02:03:58):
It's the most interesting job in the world. Yeah. You
don't know whether to say anything. You don't know whether
to just sort of be a presence.

Speaker 2 (02:04:05):
Leave room for the Holy Spirit? Right?

Speaker 3 (02:04:07):
Is that what the pre says?

Speaker 5 (02:04:09):

Speaker 2 (02:04:12):
I guess we're leaving. Hey, see you later.

Speaker 3 (02:04:14):
Happy New Year, New Year, Happy New Year.

Speaker 1 (02:04:17):
So see the grown up men, those stud just little boys.

Speaker 2 (02:04:21):
Ethan could tell that was going nowhere difference.

Speaker 3 (02:04:24):
Here's the price about toys.

Speaker 1 (02:04:27):
We're going for macho symbols.

Speaker 9 (02:04:29):
I just thought I figured out what I was.

Speaker 5 (02:04:30):
Saying, pickup trucks.

Speaker 2 (02:04:33):
Years watching, I am going to do power and maybe
we'll do this. We'll do the Sullivan Hardware New Year's
Eve party, not this year. We have great comedy this
Uh New Year's Eve. Though, if you're looking for a
place to to come hang out, it's early, Greg Han,

(02:04:53):
Dave Wilson. Uh, there are tickets available. Uh, it goes
starts on Sunday night, and that the first one Sunday
night is sold out. But then I think there's tickets
for the other ones. One's really close to sold out.
But there is New Year's Eve. So that would be
kind of fun. You could go out to dinner early

(02:05:15):
and then come to a comedy show. Clean comedy. Greg
Hahn is awesome. Uh So that would be rather cool.
But maybe in the future what I've always wanted to do.
Because as a kid, Ethan, do you ever watch The
Times Square the ball Drop?

Speaker 3 (02:05:32):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:05:32):
Yeah, as a little kid. I was always disappointed. I
would stay up till midnight for the ball drop. They
never drop it. You want, you want a ball, It's
like they lower it down. They should say, hey, make
sure you join us for the Times Square ball lowering.

Speaker 3 (02:05:55):
So then would you count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,
three two one and then just drop? And now it's
kind of like a lowering during that ten second count.

Speaker 2 (02:06:04):
Because Indianapolis did the same thing. Bob Schultz and I
pinned him down. We were in u we were down
in Disney, and they were going to drop an Indy car.

Speaker 3 (02:06:16):
Well, drop it, drop it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:18):
No, they lowered it.

Speaker 3 (02:06:20):
Well, I think because they just worry that, you know,
when something like that falls, I mean, pieces scatter everywhere.
I've been hit in the head with a piece before.

Speaker 2 (02:06:28):
Everyone sign a waiver. Everyone has sign a waiver, Okay,
why not? And maybe I just dropped a bunch of stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:06:39):
I mean, like a bunch of stuff, like I'm just.

Speaker 2 (02:06:42):
Saying that, hey, New Year's Eve, stuff drop.

Speaker 3 (02:06:46):
What if it was more like you could pay to
get into a pin. Okay, so now you've got a pink,
you know how Like in Times Square, everybody's kind of
in pins.

Speaker 2 (02:06:56):
Yeah, so they try to keep it so a stampede
doesn't so usually.

Speaker 3 (02:07:00):
Wear a diaper. We wouldn't have you do that here,
because once you get in, you can come in and
out of the pin. So you get into the pin
and then we drop like like foam or whipped cream
or putting something like that, and you while you're in
the pit, and so you get the excitement and the
exhilaration of like the new year, and it's like, wow,

(02:07:23):
this is such a great way to start the new
year because it's so fine. No it drops, it drops
from this cut.

Speaker 2 (02:07:30):
Oh it doesn't drop into the pin.

Speaker 3 (02:07:32):
No, it drops into the pin. You're in it.

Speaker 2 (02:07:34):
So you could get like a kid.

Speaker 3 (02:07:36):
Like as a kid, you always I mean people used
to dream, kids used to dream about being slimed and stuff.
And I still I still when stuff falls on me,
I'm still laugh. You know, it's so fun up with
a pie. You laugh, you know, it's so fun. So
maybe you know you're in, you get you pay money,
and you're in the pit and you're gonna start the
new year by getting whipped creamed or pudding. Srime, slime.

Speaker 4 (02:07:58):
I wish I could get a camera on Pat's face,
Like now he's watching you and he's like, she's nuts.

Speaker 2 (02:08:07):
Terry's not nuts. It's just a lot of times I
need to find out where she's going.

Speaker 3 (02:08:12):
That's where I'm going. Security. It's like, you know a
lot of times at the beginning of the year, you'll
have you know, where you'll go to a body of
water that's frozen and you'll jump in. Right, people do that.

Speaker 4 (02:08:25):
People do that, do it.

Speaker 3 (02:08:26):
For right, the good plunges. You do that for charities
or because you know, it's exhilarating. And I think that
exhilaration can still occur on New Year's Eve when something drops,
but it's dropping on Yeah, but.

Speaker 2 (02:08:40):
I want to I wanna I wanna kind of rectify
a wrong on my generation, which was this fallacy of
a ball drop. And I just want to drop stuff
not on people, not putting, but like and you could
do it could be a number of things, like it's
twenty two twenty six, we could we could drop twenty

(02:09:02):
six water heaters from sixth floors or.

Speaker 3 (02:09:06):
What have you seen?

Speaker 6 (02:09:07):
You know, like the plate breaking where people like write
things on the plates and then they'll throw the plate
and the shatters.

Speaker 5 (02:09:13):
Right.

Speaker 6 (02:09:13):
Oh, if you like put the ball out and everybody
gets to like write something they hated about the prior year. Okay,
and then you actually drop that and you're releasing all
those back. So for instance, Pat could put a picture
of the New York ball drop or yeah, or Denny sorry,
or the New.

Speaker 2 (02:09:33):
York ball drop nowhere you're going.

Speaker 6 (02:09:35):
Right, Yeah, Sometimes I get a little crazy in here.

Speaker 3 (02:09:38):
So then you throw the plate or you throw whatever.

Speaker 6 (02:09:41):
Yeah, or if you like, if we're feeling it and
getting big, like a huge ball, took the ball.

Speaker 2 (02:09:45):
Back up, we light it on fire and then drop it.

Speaker 9 (02:09:49):
We're now re lighting it on fire.

Speaker 6 (02:09:51):
Yeah, dude, load the fire.

Speaker 3 (02:09:52):
Don't girlfriends do that when boyfriends break up with them,
they've burned everything to like in a ceremony, they take
their thing and you write it down. You know he
was this, he was that. You throw it in the fire,
and that's supposed to cleanse you, like you for you know,
it helps me that I've just burned his shirt.

Speaker 4 (02:10:08):
And in so many types of therapy, I don't remember
that one.

Speaker 3 (02:10:10):
No, this is a real one. It's a real one.
Therapists in fact recommend that I think that's a therapy.

Speaker 2 (02:10:17):
I've never broken up with my girlfriend.

Speaker 9 (02:10:19):
No you married her instead, Yeah, you married her.

Speaker 6 (02:10:23):
Nice.

Speaker 3 (02:10:23):
Every year we talk about this every year, we talk
about why does an Indianapolis do anything like this drop?
We're like, I think I just heard a week or
two ago that Indianapolis is like the best city in
the world and we don't have a ball drop.

Speaker 9 (02:10:38):
I was just watching the Taylor Swift release a new
documentary about the Heiress Tour, and they featured Indianapolis and
they talked about how hospitable and amazing this city came together.
It was actually really cool.

Speaker 3 (02:10:51):
That's nice.

Speaker 9 (02:10:52):
To your point, people want to come. So we need
to make people want to come. We need to make
something right.

Speaker 3 (02:10:57):
And and I just don't understand when we are this,
we are this everything city and looking for more, that
we don't have a simple thing like a ball drop
on New Year's Eve.

Speaker 2 (02:11:06):
And and this is I know what you're guys are
gonna say that it's too soon, but ken Nun's gone now, yeah,
so we can you know, that's what they're all worried
about his liability of dropping.

Speaker 3 (02:11:21):
Oh, that's what it's about.

Speaker 2 (02:11:23):
Like like Schultze told me that, like you know, they're
the Legal Department of the city and all that. They
just won't Danny, you look miserable.

Speaker 4 (02:11:34):
I'm thinking about the ken None bus. He's on more
buses than anyone. Attorney dropped the bus, drop an Indigo
bus in his honor.

Speaker 5 (02:11:44):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:11:44):
I don't know about a bus that is genius. I
don't know about a bus. There's a real liability. There
are helicopters that they use for putting on rooftops. Why
not lift the bus up on the helicopter, find a
nice place and just let her go.

Speaker 9 (02:12:01):
We can fill it with pudding first helps.

Speaker 3 (02:12:05):
If you like that better, you know, you put putting
in and I'm a little happier about it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:12:11):
AnyWho, anyhow, anyways.

Speaker 3 (02:12:14):
Anyways, so anyways, we still don't have a ball. We
don't have anything that's going to drop. We got Moses
a place that we can all come together and be
united one night.

Speaker 4 (02:12:25):
We don't have to drop something. We could blow something up.

Speaker 3 (02:12:27):
I bet the speed be open to dropping something. The
speed wouldn't be open to something like that.

Speaker 2 (02:12:34):
Oh that's what showlds something. Anyway, we can't drop it.
We got to lower it because of the liability.

Speaker 6 (02:12:40):
It's like a liability smile ability.

Speaker 4 (02:12:43):
Yeah, show a little backbone, shultzy.

Speaker 3 (02:12:46):
Here's the tallest building, is it? The Salesforce?

Speaker 5 (02:12:49):
No?

Speaker 4 (02:12:50):
A U L Salesforce? The old Bank one build.

Speaker 3 (02:12:53):
Monument Circle is a perfect place for something to fall something.

Speaker 2 (02:12:59):
It's the perfect place for something to come crashing to
the ground.

Speaker 3 (02:13:04):
And not a tenderloin now, although you know what I
heard the other day there that's an actual bill to
make the tenderloin.

Speaker 4 (02:13:11):
For about the tenth year in a row.

Speaker 3 (02:13:13):
Do we have seriously to make it the state.

Speaker 2 (02:13:18):
Sandwich? This is what This is a bill the thing
that has to go if if this state is ever
going to, you know, move past its reputation. We've got
to get rid of the sugar cream pie.

Speaker 3 (02:13:32):
Oh stop it.

Speaker 4 (02:13:36):
Have you ever had a sugar cream pie?

Speaker 5 (02:13:37):
Pet?

Speaker 3 (02:13:38):
Yeah, it is one of the best.

Speaker 2 (02:13:40):
Move to Illinois.

Speaker 9 (02:13:42):
I will say it's a little too sweet, it's a
little much. It's fine, everyone, soupy father.

Speaker 3 (02:13:51):
You've never had a wix pie or that pie that
comes up from Zionsville that we get from or wherever
we get that one sugar cream pie. Bronco brings me
amazing sugar cream pie. You've not had a good one.

Speaker 2 (02:14:03):
Fine? You live in Indiana sugar cream pie.

Speaker 9 (02:14:08):
What if we dropped the sugar cream pie? Ah, now
sugar cream pie?

Speaker 3 (02:14:12):
Am I going to get to be in the pit?
Or you could be in the pie, in the pie,
I'd be in the pie.

Speaker 2 (02:14:18):
You could be the topping.

Speaker 4 (02:14:19):
And then then she could do the equivalent of mud wrestling.
Who would you like the mud wrestler Terry?

Speaker 2 (02:14:24):
Pat who it is getting hot here in the studio.
We better take a break.

Speaker 3 (02:14:35):
I think so beat him in leg wrestling. I can
take him on in.

Speaker 2 (02:14:38):
This coming right back ninety three wibc Hey, good afternoon,
Welcome back, Pat Sullivan, Denny Smith, Terry Stacy, Alison Lemons
Ethan and joining us on the program. Vonnie joins us
with a V Hi, Vonnie, how are you good?

Speaker 11 (02:15:04):
You guys are thinking too destructive for broken plates and
all that. We really missed it. What we should have
done has filled up water balloons two thousand and twenty
six of them and have David Letterman throw them off
one of the buildings downtown.

Speaker 2 (02:15:20):
I remember when he did that, him.

Speaker 11 (02:15:23):
Doing that, No, yeah, but I didn't know he'd done that.

Speaker 3 (02:15:26):
Well.

Speaker 2 (02:15:26):
He was always throwing stuff, wasn't he.

Speaker 5 (02:15:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:15:30):
Buildings, But she's saying, like a monument circle, like.

Speaker 3 (02:15:33):
For Fourth of July or for New Year's we throw
them off.

Speaker 11 (02:15:37):
I like we could have had fun. I like water balloons,
maybe even one of them. There'd be a check for
so much money.

Speaker 9 (02:15:43):
Who knows put putting into the water.

Speaker 3 (02:15:46):
Yeah, but you could put cash. You could put cash.

Speaker 2 (02:15:49):
Or yeah, but that would cause public safety hazard.

Speaker 3 (02:15:53):
It's okay, you know again he signed something before you
come in.

Speaker 2 (02:15:56):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 9 (02:15:58):
I like to think.

Speaker 11 (02:15:59):
But I would love to see days and I think
that would have been awesome.

Speaker 3 (02:16:02):
It would be good.

Speaker 11 (02:16:06):
Yeah, you're all right.

Speaker 2 (02:16:07):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (02:16:09):
The New Year.

Speaker 2 (02:16:12):
See some of the chatters, h A couple of people
recommended the turkeys turkey drop.

Speaker 6 (02:16:19):
Yeah, we've got to make sure we don't do the
balloon thing that the radio you guys, I don't remember
what radio station it was, but they dropped all the
balloons and they ended up like popping over everything and
it was a huge pr nightmare. Do you guys know
what I'm talking about at all?

Speaker 9 (02:16:34):
In Ohio?

Speaker 5 (02:16:36):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (02:16:36):
Because uh uh, you're you're talking about small balloons like
water balloon?

Speaker 6 (02:16:41):
I think well, I think they were trying to set
a world record of most amount of.

Speaker 3 (02:16:45):
Kind of kill a dock, pop and stuff could.

Speaker 9 (02:16:48):
Kill a do Are you talking about balloon Fest eighty six?

Speaker 6 (02:16:52):
Yeah, it was the radio station, Yes, I think so
eighty six.

Speaker 9 (02:16:57):
A local chapter of United Way record by releasing almost
one point five million balloons, and the event was intended
to be harmless publicity stunt. But that's when I think
it was. There's so many balloons that caught CODs with
traffic and like it was getting caught in buildings. I mean,
look at the picture, a million balloons.

Speaker 3 (02:17:18):
Yeah, it's in the picture.

Speaker 2 (02:17:20):
So they I was going to say in eighty six
they probably weren't worried about They got rid of that.

Speaker 3 (02:17:27):
They did because of so many said stop.

Speaker 9 (02:17:30):
Oh. So when they release the balloons, a lot of
them drifted back over the city and around Lake Erie
and caused problems for traffic in nearby airports there, so
airlines couldn't.

Speaker 3 (02:17:41):
I guess that's.

Speaker 2 (02:17:42):
Okay, that's okay, there's that, so let's.

Speaker 9 (02:17:45):
Not release it balloons. But what are balloons? You're throwing
it down?

Speaker 3 (02:17:50):
Sure until a sad lost duck comes by, Yeah, but
you don't want and then maybe they have eco friendly balloons.

Speaker 2 (02:17:57):
Maybe that'll teach the other ducks not to be so stupid.

Speaker 6 (02:18:02):
Forci of evolution.

Speaker 2 (02:18:04):
Yeah, tired of worrying about all these like harrib I mean, look,
look what happened to straws. One stupid sea turtle gets
a straw stuck in its nose and it changes the world.

Speaker 3 (02:18:16):
Now it's the only that's the only one we know
about the one.

Speaker 2 (02:18:22):
It is the only one.

Speaker 3 (02:18:24):
I can't believe. You don't have any compassion for wildlife whatsoever.

Speaker 6 (02:18:28):
And how do those ducks keep getting fooled by the
same call, Like it's been the same duck call for
forever and they just keep exactly like you didn't know that,
Like they're dumb. Yeah, like you guy just got shot.
You shouldn't go towards.

Speaker 2 (02:18:41):
Don't go towards that. You should be running when you
hear that, you should run the other way exactly.

Speaker 6 (02:18:46):
That should be like a warning. I'm fed up with
these animals them too.

Speaker 11 (02:18:53):
You're horrible.

Speaker 3 (02:18:54):
You are horrible people.

Speaker 2 (02:18:55):
We're gonna have to have a deer hunt in our neighborhood.
We came home, there was sick deer.

Speaker 9 (02:19:01):
In your yard.

Speaker 2 (02:19:01):
Didn't I tell you that? Last week? Six deer right
right at the front of where we turned in for
our neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (02:19:11):
But when you saw them, what did you feel. Did
you feel like that you were connecting with nature? Did
you look at them right in the eye.

Speaker 2 (02:19:18):
No, I looked at him and like, oh, look they're
all in order, and one of them has a red
nose on its No. No, they were all just.

Speaker 3 (02:19:29):
Are we going to there's no there's no land for
us anymore, is what they were saying.

Speaker 2 (02:19:33):
You know what, we need to get them the hell?
How did they get across four sixty five? That's what
I want to know.

Speaker 9 (02:19:38):
That's impressive, it is, because that's what.

Speaker 2 (02:19:40):
That's the fortress was for sixty five.

Speaker 3 (02:19:42):
Yeah, I don't know. I mean they've had to weave
in and out and lose family members and everything to
get to your yard.

Speaker 9 (02:19:49):
So really you should be welcoming them. Why can't you
put corn out the survivors or like the salt blocks.

Speaker 3 (02:19:55):
Please something help them feed them? They're starving.

Speaker 2 (02:20:00):
Like everybody has a gun, you think they would take
care of that stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:20:02):
Not in the city. You will not shoot it there
in the city.

Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
If you think it's an intruder, you will. What Crumby
used to always say about uh Danny, what would woodpeckers
like woodpeckers they're protected and Dick goes you just always go,
you know, just shoot him with a bb gun and
just say you thought it was an intruder.

Speaker 9 (02:20:26):

Speaker 2 (02:20:52):
That's kind of a weird. That's a that's a weird.
I think somebody I would like to, uh, that person

Speaker 5 (02:22:04):
Dave.

Speaker 2 (02:22:05):
Now, Dave, did you have to did you host your
family or Now, usually once you're a retailer, your other
family members should feel sorry for you and say, hey,
you know we'll host right.

Speaker 5 (02:22:19):
Well, no, we didn't, and that's because kind of a
sad deal. We'll not not sad, but it just went.
And it deals with Becky's one of her sons and
his family stayed in Florida over the actual Christmas. So
whereas we always had hosted Christmas Eve, that didn't happen
this year. So we were able to go to my
sister Carol's. Okay, we didn't have to host anything. So

(02:22:42):
my sisters and my nephew Tom did all the hosting.

Speaker 2 (02:22:46):
And they and they should until you know, forever now
because of the store, because once you're in retail, Christmas
retail and everyone goes.

Speaker 4 (02:22:53):
Oh, we shouldn't, probably should know. And Becky, do you
know who Dave's nephew is. It's Tom Hanks tomans name.

Yes, all this way, oh man. Starting tomorrow night, unbelievable action.
The North Pole Comedy Club kicks into gear Santa and
Greg Han, one of Bob and Tom's favorite comedians. The
high energy is all I can tell you. You'll have
to strap in and put your helmets on. But Greg's

(02:23:34):
an hilarious guy. He's a lot of fun. He's a
good friend, and I'm really looking forward to well not
hearing the dogs bark, but also hearing Greg Hawn and
Santa having some new jokes and some new things going on.
So we'll be doing that.

Speaker 2 (02:23:48):
So uh, and then you guys are going to do

his new uh new jokes.

Speaker 5 (02:24:13):

a test run tonight. Yeah, and I think I think
if I can memorize it, I've written a Santa rap.

Speaker 3 (02:24:25):
Oh how appropriate is there one? Maybe? Can Is there
one of those Santa jokes you could try out on us,
just as like a pre pre rehearsal.

Speaker 5 (02:24:35):
Uh, Well, I have got one joke about uh where
you know Michael Pittman Junior. Uh, the Colts came in
and rode the train. Yeah, and when he stepped in
the North Pole, Santa Me. I threw him a candy
cane and he said, I had a better arm than
Philip Rivers.

Speaker 2 (02:24:54):
Oh, wow, Santa turns me.

Speaker 3 (02:25:00):
Santa did turn me.

Speaker 2 (02:25:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:25:02):
It was a kind of cool story about Philip Rivers,
about how he this was not a plan to have
Christmas here like that wasn't in his big long term plan.
Ten kids, fifteen grandkids, everybody came to Indianapolis to be
in his little rental home because nice for Christmas, and
he had his Christmas here.

Speaker 2 (02:25:19):
Yeah. I bet I was a little rental home over
there in Ravens.

Speaker 3 (02:25:22):
I wondered about that, you know, I wondered, what's wrong
with Ravens would nothing?

Speaker 2 (02:25:26):
Ravenswood Rocks. That's where the uh that's where the yacht club.

Speaker 3 (02:25:30):
Is, sure is and that's cool. Everybody wants to be
a member of that place. Oh sure, right, yeah, well
that was a good joke. I mean it was good.
I mean I laughed.

Speaker 4 (02:25:39):
Yeah, Dave, if you're doing if you're doing rap, do
you have like a vocal percussionist somebody that can make percussion?

Speaker 5 (02:25:46):
No, this is a low budget deal.

Speaker 2 (02:25:48):
This is uh yeah actually and what uh the guys
from the plumbing department are going to help.

Speaker 5 (02:25:55):
Oh that's good. Yeah, they could get some some tvc outs, yeah,
of different links and oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:26:01):
Those guys are they're Hams. They will they'll they'll yeah,

Speaker 4 (02:26:05):
Oh yeah, there you go.

Speaker 2 (02:26:07):
Yeah, borrow some trash cans from Housewares. Yeah, oh yeah,
it's gonna be great.

Speaker 5 (02:26:11):
It was. We had a great year at Santa's Pitch Stop,
Christmas Shop and Gifts where you were up right now,
we're up thirty eight percent from December last year. So yeah,
we're very happy about that.

Speaker 2 (02:26:26):
They sold the same amount of units. That was just
all tariff. Uh. Yeah, that's right. Now, that's that's comedy.
Put that one in your show, Dave.

Speaker 5 (02:26:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:26:38):
Now, the last time I tried to write a joke
for Dave, he tried it like twelve different ways and
we just never hit you. Remember that, remember my.

Speaker 5 (02:26:47):
Uh, I don't remember the joke. I remember us trying it.

Speaker 2 (02:26:51):
Yeah, it was, uh, the the world's uh the world's
oldest bar closed, two thousand year old bar closed. And
I said, well, because haven't changed the drapes in two
hundred years, and it's just like we just kept trying
different things, and it's just right, there was a joke there.
We just couldn't find it right.

Speaker 5 (02:27:11):
Yet. I have a whole slew of those.

Speaker 3 (02:27:19):
There's a joke right there in your career.

Speaker 5 (02:27:21):
Build on that.

Speaker 3 (02:27:22):
But I'm glad to hear that sales are up.

Speaker 4 (02:27:26):
Speedway needs that, and certainly you guys can appreciate it too.
But I love it when Speedway main Street sort of
wakes up like that.

Speaker 5 (02:27:33):
Right, And there's some other new things going on on
main Street, which you're very exciting we're looking forward to
participating in. So that's going to be a neat deal.
But it's been a long retail season and Pat will
tell you, and you know, doing Santa and doing the store.
I posted a selfie the other night and eight people said,
I hoped I got better soon. I thought I was

(02:27:57):
diseased or something.

Speaker 2 (02:27:59):
But you know, for a reach for your second year,
I mean to have The first part of December was
the coldest since the seventies, seventy nine, I believe, for
the first ten or twelve days, and it was brutal.
We lost one weekend completely, right, So.

Speaker 5 (02:28:16):
Yeah, and so we and it picked up a little
for us, but again we'd only had one year and
it was just you know, a year ago. December was
just our second month of operation, so you know, it's
kind of you know, obviously we had you know, we
were going to be up. I'm really happy that we're
up as much as we are. And it just it's

(02:28:36):
so much fun. I mean, it's a lot of fun,
but it's a lot of work. Having the retail store.
I really love being in there. I love doing Santa,
especially at Pat for the Sulllivan Express and is such
the best place in the world I feel to be.
Santa is there because you know, everybody comes in, it's
all structured so well, and the kids are all hyped

(02:28:58):
and the only thing is pat and I am probably
going to take you the task on this. Yeah, the
six seven display.

Speaker 2 (02:29:08):
That was my son Joe. He took He took Christmas
lights on a piece of plywood and put six seven
and they would light up one at a time, and
you get the right you get the right kids on
the train and they lose it.

Speaker 5 (02:29:23):
Oh well, you can have Joe b Santa next year.
Listen to that craft. I wish he would just stand
behind my chair for the flowers, because I know Santa
is not allowed in that area, but I was tempted
to break that rule just to find that thing and

(02:29:43):
talk it out onto Koma Street somewhere.

Speaker 2 (02:29:46):
Santa didn't want to hear about six seven.

Speaker 5 (02:29:49):
Oh, Sata loves the six seven constantly, six seven, you know.
And they would come in, don't you know what six
seven means, Santa? Don't you know what that means? Nothing?
I said, no, I got no idea. And then they'd say, well, hey,
it's my name on the on the nice list. Well
it's written in Cursey. You can't read Cursey.

Speaker 2 (02:30:09):
Oh I got him back, Santa. Sounds kind of fun.

Speaker 3 (02:30:16):
To have he does. It would be fun to have
like a to be a part of a what would
we call that a post Santa's helper, uh, Santa together.

Speaker 9 (02:30:31):
Round table, Yeah, round.

Speaker 3 (02:30:32):
Table helpers, and that would be good. You know, listen
to what they would see.

Speaker 9 (02:30:36):
The thing about therapy.

Speaker 2 (02:30:38):
The thing about Santa's at our places like it is
a you know, it's a lonely thing because you know
it's like they they go right to the sleigh and
Santa Helper. Lease. On the other hand, are engineers that
drive the train. So there's generally ten or twelve working
at a time, and you know, they they'll stop for

(02:30:58):
you know, they're all done. They put away the equipment
and they're all shooting the you know what for over
a couple of beers and stuff, talking about their day,
talking about what they hit, what they missed.

Speaker 4 (02:31:10):
Santa when Santa you know, I know there's different trains
that come by. How long of a gap has Santa
got there to do a Santa bathroom stop?

Speaker 5 (02:31:19):
Well, you don't have really any you you you see
a family all when a train pulls up, four cars unload.
It could be one family, it could be four families,
and you talk to all the families and get all
the pictures that everybody wants. And once you're pretty assured
that there won't be any more phono's required, and you

(02:31:41):
can kind of slip back to go to the bathroom.
And each each north pole has a spot for Santa
to go to the bathroom, and about oh, I don't know,
a third of the time it'll be occupied by a
tree lot boy.

Speaker 4 (02:31:59):
Oh boy boy, and they know where Santa's slay stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:32:03):
Yeahs So that's a little frustrating, but you know that's
but there's plenty of time. You zip back there, you know,
do your business, and then you come back and you're
ready to go. You get back right before they leave,
and off you go.

Speaker 3 (02:32:17):
Dave.

Speaker 4 (02:32:17):
I have to tell you that the nicest thing that
Pat Sullomon ever did for me was during radiothon during
a radio thrown break. You can either eat, you can
go to the bathroom, or you know, you don't have
a lot of time, and Pat took me. I could
tell he you know how Pat walks fast. I knew
he had to go, but he let me go first, Dave. Now,
isn't that a gentleman?

Speaker 5 (02:32:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:32:38):
And I actually found a restroom that I knew was
not used being used by Santa. Yeah, because all that,
and that's the problem. I know. I hate to get
into the bathroom wall.

Speaker 3 (02:32:48):
Here we go again.

Speaker 2 (02:32:49):
We have five restrooms. There's so many people. It's like
the tree lot boys, they should just pee on the
tree Dave.

Speaker 4 (02:32:57):
I made a reservation for those five bathrooms right there
off of the restaurant, you know that little hallway. I
made a reservation three days ahead of time, and they
didn't have me on the list.

Speaker 5 (02:33:08):
Well, this I will. This is a thing that happened.
And it's the kind of thing that I never liked
to say around Pat because he doesn't need any more pressure.
But so I had a bathroom break, and it was
the second to last car of the night, and so
I was waiting on actually the last train, and all

(02:33:30):
I was wearing. I was wearing my vest and a
beautiful white shirt and my pants, but I didn't have
my big coat on because I.

Speaker 3 (02:33:36):
Was going to start laughing here.

Speaker 5 (02:33:38):
And so I go running out the back door and
I cut too much. And you know, I'm seventy years old,
and so when you're seventy, you cut your bruise easy.
And so I hit the door that just the door
side of the door with my arm, and I don't
crap at her a little bit. So I go in
the bathroom. I'm doing my business and I looked down

(02:34:01):
and my white shirt is covered in blood. I mean, no,
I got I still got another train to go, and
my shirt is covered in blood.

Speaker 3 (02:34:11):
Was it red?

Speaker 5 (02:34:13):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:34:13):
Yes, okay, it.

Speaker 5 (02:34:14):
Was cherry red, but it was a white shirt covered
in blood. So, uh, well, I can't see kids with
looking like I'm a Halloween.

Speaker 3 (02:34:26):
Movie I was dealing with.

Speaker 4 (02:34:30):
Yeah, those naughty kids are getting meaner.

Speaker 5 (02:34:33):
Well you got you can't you got. You gotta be
perfect when you're when you're in Sullivan's. So I actually
I was. Luckily I was in the green North Pole
and so the exit was right there, and I ran
down the steps that I had fallen from a few
days ago when it was cold and icy. I had
actually fallen. That's another debacle, but that was my of

(02:34:55):
my own making. But but I ran down those steps
from my car, grabbed my coat and run and got
back up before the train came.

Speaker 4 (02:35:04):
Wow, ravo, this show must go on.

Speaker 5 (02:35:08):
Blood soap arm And of course then I drive home
and I walk in the house and missus Wilson, Becky,
she goes, every hang okay, and I take my coat
off and she goes, oh my god, whatever did you
fall again?

Speaker 4 (02:35:22):
That kid wouldn't shut up, Becky. I had to deal
with you.

Speaker 5 (02:35:25):
I had to do something. But you know, even though
you get into a nice rhythm at the Sullivan's in
the in the North Poles, and you know, the conductors
are doing a great job of getting the kids in
and out, and they pass out the candy canes and
there's a nice rhythm going of you know, they come,
they go, You get up, you greet the train, you

(02:35:46):
talk to the kids, you say goodbye, you get the pictures.
You get in this nice soft rhythm. But then every
now and then something happens that throws it all out
of kilter.

Speaker 2 (02:35:55):
There you go, Dave. We will see you tonight and tomorrow.
