Speaker 1 (00:02):
Probably one of the most misquoted songs ever right there,
because there's not a bathroom.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
On the right, it's one of five.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Now on the right, Nashville's Glasigrock, It's Battle of the Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Welcome in to Tuesday show.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
I can tell you now officially what the tickets are
for the concerts that we're giving away at six forty
one stupid question, the Music of Queen with the Nashville
Symphony at that new venue, the Pinnacle, and then at
a ten, I've got tickets for you to.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Go see Eric Clapton.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So now I can tell you the concerts because we
finally announced them yesterday, So now you have something to
look forward to in this show six forty Music of
Queen at the Pinnacle with the Nashville Symphony, and then
at a ten, tickets to see Eric Clapton. Let's take
a look at what's trending, starting off with some sad news.
Carl Dean, not the former mayor of Nashville, but the
(00:52):
husband of country music legend Dolly Parton, has passed away
at the age of eighty two.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
We found this out yesterday evening.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Dolly and Carl were married for nearly sixty years. And
while Carl kept a low profile, he was always her
biggest supporter. She once said their secret to a long
marriage was laughter and letting each other be themselves, no doubts.
A lot of people sending their love to Dolly right now,
and just the heads up, switching some gears, we can
(01:18):
add some weather for today. We've got some rough weather
heading to our vicinity. They're saying strong wind, severe thunderstorms
in the forecast today with the possibility of damaging gusts
and heavy rain. So if you're out about, keep an
eye on the skies, take cover if needed, because let's
be honest, no one wants to get caught in this.
For Middle Tennessee, they're saying that the storm should hit
(01:40):
between the hours of they set up believe, like four
and eleven. I was like, that's a long stretch of
time for this thing to hint. But yeah, they're saying
between four and eleven today we're gonna see anywhere between
forty to forty five plus mile per hour winds. So
just a little fyi if you're out and about work today,
(02:01):
that is a look at what trending coming up here.
At six forty we're gonna get somebody on the phone.
We'll play one stupid question for tickets to see the
music of Queen with the Nashville Symphony.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
We want to join the show.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Talk to us by calling six seven.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Nine The rock.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Possibly one of the biggest mysteries floating around right now,
What exactly happened to Gene Hackman and his wife and
their dog. It's one O five nine the Right National's
classic Rockets Battle in the morning. Of course, authorities haven't
given us an official cause of death yet, but leave
it to the internets in the world famous forensic pathologists,
doctor Michael Baden to put.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Together some theories.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Now to be clear, this guy not working on the case,
but he has seen the reports and he thinks this
is how everything went down with everybody dying. He thinks
that Hackman, who had a pacemaker, suffered a cardiac arrests
and collapsed.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
His wife in.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
A panic rate of the bathroom, grabbed his blood pressure meds,
somehow collapse herself. Maybe it was the stress, maybe it
was a fall, maybe something more serious like an internal
injury injury. Either way, no one was there to call
for help. And then the heartbreaking detail about their dog.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Sadly, it was found in its kennel, and he thinks
the dog likely passed from dehydration after nine days without waters.
Just a tragic situation all around, But that's what that
guy thinks possibly happen. Again, we won't know anything until
those reports come out. Uh and well, we'll kind of
see what happens. But I know a lot of people
waking up over the weekend shocked by seeing you know, him,
(03:35):
his wife, and his dog all found dead, which still
is a wild story for sure. Let's get somebody on
the phone. Let's play one stupid question this morning up

one five seven three seven, one oh five nine again
six one five seven three seven one oh five nine.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You know, when me and my wife and I first
started dating, she used to make fun of me all
the time because how I paid.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
For our dates.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I mean, she still makes fun of me to this day,
but this one really stuck with her. You see, I
had this little bit of a system. Right before we
went out, I'd make a pitch stop at Kroger, not
for flowers or anything like that. I would stop in
there for gift cards. Why because while I wanted those
fuel points, and so we'd go in and my wife's like,
(07:24):
are you seriously buying a fifty dollars Texas Roadhouse gift card?
And I'm like, yes, yes I was, and yes I
am because every fifty dollars gift card, you know, if
you buy the gift cards, you get the double fuel points.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
And man, I was filling.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Up tank for practically nothing because of that time, gas
was stupid expensive like.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
It is now.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
She you know, of course, thought it was hilarious and
a little embarrassing. We'd go to the restaurant instead of
like pulling out my wallet or anything, I just flap
that gift card down and go with it. I mean,
imagine sitting there, waiter brings a check and you're paying
with a gift card. And my wife just felt embarrassed.
And anytime that the check was coming and I'd go pay,
she'd get up and leave. So yeah, she was not
(08:03):
a fan and still not a fan, although she doesn't
care that it takes like fifty cents to fill out
my truck now because of the you know, the field points.
Let me ask you this, is it tacky to use
a gift card on a date? I'm curious. Phone lines
wide open if you want to get in on the show.
Six one five seven three seven one oh five nine
is the number against sixty one five seventh three seven
one oh five nine is the number.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
I want to join the show.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Text Rock and your message to six four eight the Rock.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
So I asked the question, is it tacky to use
a gift card on a date? Because every now and
then when me and my wife go out. I use
gift cards on dates because I go to Kroger get
them so I can double the field points. It's one
oh five nine the right Nashville's Classic Rock. It's Battle
in the Morning.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
If you want to get in, phone lines open.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Six one five seventh three seven one oh five nine
is the number.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Mary in Clarksville.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Do you think it's tacky to use a gift card
on the date?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I have no problem with frugality. Uh huh. I have
a ton of gift cards lying around.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
It doesn't make me think any less of someone for
using up that gift card.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Absolutely you should.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
H Here's the thing though, my wife still makes fun
of me for using the gift cards. But we have
a stockpile of gift cards. Why not use them? Also
take advantage of you know, the Kroker fuel points as well.
Seven three seven one five nine is the number if
you want to get in on the conversation.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Is it tacky to use a gift card on the date?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
If you ever want to get in on the show,
you can always call us six one five seven three
seven one oh five nine, Or if you're listening on
the iHeart Radio, have you tap that red microphone button
in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's the talkback mic we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Is it tacky to use gift cards on dates?
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Donald?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Leaving us this nice little message over here on the
talkback feature.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
Hey, Battle, you know, I gotta tell you, dude, I
think it is absolutely very tacky for you to use
a gift card while on a date. Dude, you make
so much money, why are you buying gift cards?
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Stop that? Use your real money. Stop using gift cards
on dates with your wife.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Hey Donald, real quick, though, Bro, I don't make that
much money. Why do you think I have eight million jobs?
Why do you think I work here at the radio
station and for the National Sounds and for the National
Predators and everything else in between.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I'm still gonna use gift cards on dates with my wife.
I'm just saying. I'm just saying six.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
One five seven three seven, one oh five nine is
the number against sixty one five seven three seven, one
oh five.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Nine is the number.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Or if you're listening on the iHeart Radio, if you
can drop us a little message by hitting that little
red microphone button in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So the question I have for you. Is it tacky
to use gift cards when paying for dates? Just curious?
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Six one five seven three seven one five nine is
the number. Phone lines are wide open, and if you're
listening on the iHeart radio, you can always hit that
red microphone button in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Todd, you got some advice for me? What's up?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Man?
Speaker 5 (11:01):
I'm sitting in this traffic on sixty five trying to
get into Nashville.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
I gotta tell you the one good thing about driving
in at like four o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
I don't have to sit in that crap at all.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Well, see, what makes it even better is when I
can call you and give you some absolutely free mayor
to advice.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, hit me with it, all right.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
How long have you been married?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I believe it'll be eleven years? Well, eight years we've
been married.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
We've been together going on eleven.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
I got you, okay? Is your wife? Is your wife
under thirty years old? Uh? No? Okay, Well the chances
are that she was raised in a different generation. I've
been married thirty eight years, and I can tell you this.
My wife would never be embarrassed from whipping out a
(11:55):
gift card because that's how you save money. Yeah, don't
matter how you do it. It don't matter what friends
are sitting there. If you're if her friends have a
problem with YouTube saving money, uh, she needs she needs
to ditch brands and gets news exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
And I tell her, I'm like, it's not that big
of a deal because I go to Kroger, you buy
the gift cards. And by the way, this is not
a paid advertisement for Kroger. You go to Kroger, you
get the gift cards, you get the double fuel points,
you save money at the pumping because we know how
expensive gas is.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
My daughter is thirty three and heard her husband do
that all the time. They don't pay for gas very
little at all. They do it all the time. So
you're doing right, my friends, You're stay on the right tracks.
She'll come around.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Hopefully she'll come around. We'll see what happens. I appreciate
you calling in this morning.

like less than ten minutes. Phone lines already lit up
like a Christmas tree to try to get their hands
on these Eric Clapton tickets. But before I grab somebody
on the phone to give them the tickets, I did
see something really cool as I was scrolling through social
media just now, which by the way, if you want
to follow us at one oh five nine in the
Rock at Battle on air.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
But as we all know.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
The Grand Ole Opry is turning one hundred and they
just made a small but significant change for the anniversary.
They changed the mic stand for just the fifth time
in a century. Yeah, the old one had grand all
Opry written out.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
The new one just says Opry in all caps.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yes, the anniversary isn't until November, but there is going
to be a Opry one hundred special on NBC coming
up here on March nineteenth. I look at the mic
stand and it's it's kind of intriguing. I will say
that if you want to say. It's posted up on
our Instagram at one oh five nine in the Rock. Okay,
now let's get somebody on the phone and give these
Eric Clapton tickets away.
Speaker 2 (14:34):

literally damble on anything. If there is something you can
put money on, chances.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Are people are gonna do it.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It's one O five, not the Rock Nationals, Classic Rock,
It's battle. There are online betting markets right now that
turned their focus to Pope Francis amid his critical health condition.
There is a platforms like Polymarket. They have seen wagers
exceeding four hundred and twenty thousand dollars on questions such
as whether there will be a new Pope in twenty
(16:15):
twenty five, which country the next pope might help from,
and even who is the odds on favorite on becoming
the next pope? Again, people will gamble on just about anything.
I'm just saying, although I feel like that's bad karma
and like, do not pass go go straight to Hell.
If you're gambling on the pope, I'm just saying, it's
(16:37):
like taking bets on Jesus. Right, it's battle in the morning.
It's one o five now on the righte Nashville's classical.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I appreciate you hanging out spit. It's some time with us.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
So the question is how many episodes of a show
should you watch before you give up? I will tell you.
When it came to the show Game of Thrones, I
made it thirty minutes into it. I was just like, no,
that is same for me. I'm not watching it in
anymore whatsoever. A new study based on IMDb ratings found
that you should give a TV show at least six
episodes sport to get good. Some shows that took a
(17:09):
while to research potential include Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, and Friends. Now,
of those three that I just mentioned, I have seen
one entire series that was Breaking Bad, couldn't get into Seinfeld,
couldn't get into Friends and the one show that I
never could get into, and program director Jonathan will probably
yell at me for this when he gets in here
the office. I think that show sucked. I gave it
(17:32):
ten minutes and it was awful. It is a two
for Tuesday. It's one O five nine the Right, Nashville's
classic rock. It's Battle in the Morning. Appreciate you hanging out,
but it's some time with us. So apparently today is
a Unique Names Day.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yeah, so happy Unique Names Day.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Social Security Administration list the one thousand most common baby
names each year, so if you're way down that list,
well you've got a unique name. According to the most
recent that's the one thousandth most popular name for boys
is Hollis and uh for girls a Lannie.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
That's that's the unique.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Least popular name for boys and girls. Battle didn't even
make the lists. Yeah, so I guess I'm not that
cool part. So no, right, natural It's classic rock.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
If you haven't done so, go ahead and uh, you.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Know, hit that fall a button for me on Instagram
at one O five nine the Rock. Go follow us
on Instagram and while you're at it, if you're listening
on our iHeartRadio app, make.
Speaker 2 (18:33):

Speaker 3 (18:51):
Don't Don't don't.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
It was only a matter of time before the doo
of the day he got back to Florida rights. Hey,
it's battle. If your partner ask you what you think
of your cooking, maybe consider whether or not they're still
holding a kitchen knife.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
A forty three year old woman in Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Was arrested for aggravated battery after she stabbed her boyfriend.
The guy said that they're arguing over well, his unwillingness
to eat her cooking.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Unfortunately, there's no word what she made.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
He told police she was swinging an eight inch knife
in him and gashed his forearm when he tried to
defend himself. She admits that they're arguing over cooking, but
she says she struck him with a napkin holder.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
In any event, the guy will be fine.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
He received stitches and was released. It sounds like something
that should be on the Jerry Springer Show, The Doll
of the Day.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Welcome in to Tuesday show.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
I can tell you now officially what the tickets are
for the concerts that we're giving away at six forty
one stupid question, the Music of Queen with the Nashville
Symphony at that new venue, the Pinnacle, and then at
a ten, I've got tickets for you to.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Go see Eric Clapton.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So now I can tell you the concerts because we
finally announced them yesterday, So now you have something to
look forward to in this show six forty Music of
Queen at the Pinnacle with the Nashville Symphony, and then
at a ten, tickets to see Eric Clapton. Let's take
a look at what's trending, starting off with some sad news.
Carl Dean, not the former mayor of Nashville, but the
(00:52):
husband of country music legend Dolly Parton, has passed away
at the age of eighty two.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
We found this out yesterday evening.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Dolly and Carl were married for nearly sixty years. And
while Carl kept a low profile, he was always her
biggest supporter. She once said their secret to a long
marriage was laughter and letting each other be themselves, no doubts.
A lot of people sending their love to Dolly right now,
and just the heads up, switching some gears, we can
(01:18):
add some weather for today. We've got some rough weather
heading to our vicinity. They're saying strong wind, severe thunderstorms
in the forecast today with the possibility of damaging gusts
and heavy rain. So if you're out about, keep an
eye on the skies, take cover if needed, because let's
be honest, no one wants to get caught in this.
For Middle Tennessee, they're saying that the storm should hit
(01:40):
between the hours of they set up believe, like four
and eleven. I was like, that's a long stretch of
time for this thing to hint. But yeah, they're saying
between four and eleven today we're gonna see anywhere between
forty to forty five plus mile per hour winds. So
just a little fyi if you're out and about work today,
(02:01):
that is a look at what trending coming up here.
At six forty we're gonna get somebody on the phone.
We'll play one stupid question for tickets to see the
music of Queen with the Nashville Symphony.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
We want to join the show.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Talk to us by calling six seven.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Nine The rock.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Possibly one of the biggest mysteries floating around right now,
What exactly happened to Gene Hackman and his wife and
their dog. It's one O five nine the Right National's
classic Rockets Battle in the morning. Of course, authorities haven't
given us an official cause of death yet, but leave
it to the internets in the world famous forensic pathologists,
doctor Michael Baden to put.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Together some theories.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Now to be clear, this guy not working on the case,
but he has seen the reports and he thinks this
is how everything went down with everybody dying. He thinks
that Hackman, who had a pacemaker, suffered a cardiac arrests
and collapsed.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
His wife in.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
A panic rate of the bathroom, grabbed his blood pressure meds,
somehow collapse herself. Maybe it was the stress, maybe it
was a fall, maybe something more serious like an internal
injury injury. Either way, no one was there to call
for help. And then the heartbreaking detail about their dog.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Sadly, it was found in its kennel, and he thinks
the dog likely passed from dehydration after nine days without waters.
Just a tragic situation all around, But that's what that
guy thinks possibly happen. Again, we won't know anything until
those reports come out. Uh and well, we'll kind of
see what happens. But I know a lot of people
waking up over the weekend shocked by seeing you know, him,
(03:35):
his wife, and his dog all found dead, which still
is a wild story for sure. Let's get somebody on
the phone. Let's play one stupid question this morning up
for grabs. I got tickets for you to go check

one five seven three seven, one oh five nine again
six one five seven three seven one oh five nine.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You know, when me and my wife and I first
started dating, she used to make fun of me all
the time because how I paid.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
For our dates.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I mean, she still makes fun of me to this day,
but this one really stuck with her. You see, I
had this little bit of a system. Right before we
went out, I'd make a pitch stop at Kroger, not
for flowers or anything like that. I would stop in
there for gift cards. Why because while I wanted those
fuel points, and so we'd go in and my wife's like,
(07:24):
are you seriously buying a fifty dollars Texas Roadhouse gift card?
And I'm like, yes, yes I was, and yes I
am because every fifty dollars gift card, you know, if
you buy the gift cards, you get the double fuel points.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
And man, I was filling.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Up tank for practically nothing because of that time, gas
was stupid expensive like.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
It is now.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
She you know, of course, thought it was hilarious and
a little embarrassing. We'd go to the restaurant instead of
like pulling out my wallet or anything, I just flap
that gift card down and go with it. I mean,
imagine sitting there, waiter brings a check and you're paying
with a gift card. And my wife just felt embarrassed.
And anytime that the check was coming and I'd go pay,
she'd get up and leave. So yeah, she was not
(08:03):
a fan and still not a fan, although she doesn't
care that it takes like fifty cents to fill out
my truck now because of the you know, the field points.
Let me ask you this, is it tacky to use
a gift card on a date? I'm curious. Phone lines
wide open if you want to get in on the show.
Six one five seven three seven one oh five nine
is the number against sixty one five seventh three seven
one oh five nine is the number.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
I want to join the show.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Text Rock and your message to six four eight the Rock.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
So I asked the question, is it tacky to use
a gift card on a date? Because every now and
then when me and my wife go out. I use
gift cards on dates because I go to Kroger get
them so I can double the field points. It's one
oh five nine the right Nashville's Classic Rock. It's Battle
in the Morning.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
If you want to get in, phone lines open.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Six one five seventh three seven one oh five nine
is the number.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Mary in Clarksville.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Do you think it's tacky to use a gift card
on the date?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I have no problem with frugality. Uh huh. I have
a ton of gift cards lying around.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
It doesn't make me think any less of someone for
using up that gift card.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Absolutely you should.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
H Here's the thing though, my wife still makes fun
of me for using the gift cards. But we have
a stockpile of gift cards. Why not use them? Also
take advantage of you know, the Kroker fuel points as well.
Seven three seven one five nine is the number if
you want to get in on the conversation.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Is it tacky to use a gift card on the date?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
If you ever want to get in on the show,
you can always call us six one five seven three
seven one oh five nine, Or if you're listening on
the iHeart Radio, have you tap that red microphone button
in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's the talkback mic we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Is it tacky to use gift cards on dates?
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Donald?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Leaving us this nice little message over here on the
talkback feature.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
Hey, Battle, you know, I gotta tell you, dude, I
think it is absolutely very tacky for you to use
a gift card while on a date. Dude, you make
so much money, why are you buying gift cards?
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Stop that? Use your real money. Stop using gift cards
on dates with your wife.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Hey Donald, real quick, though, Bro, I don't make that
much money. Why do you think I have eight million jobs?
Why do you think I work here at the radio
station and for the National Sounds and for the National
Predators and everything else in between.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I'm still gonna use gift cards on dates with my wife.
I'm just saying. I'm just saying six.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
One five seven three seven, one oh five nine is
the number against sixty one five seven three seven, one
oh five.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Nine is the number.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Or if you're listening on the iHeart Radio, if you
can drop us a little message by hitting that little
red microphone button in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So the question I have for you. Is it tacky
to use gift cards when paying for dates? Just curious?
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Six one five seven three seven one five nine is
the number. Phone lines are wide open, and if you're
listening on the iHeart radio, you can always hit that
red microphone button in the top right hand corner.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Todd, you got some advice for me? What's up?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Man?
Speaker 5 (11:01):
I'm sitting in this traffic on sixty five trying to
get into Nashville.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
I gotta tell you the one good thing about driving
in at like four o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
I don't have to sit in that crap at all.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Well, see, what makes it even better is when I
can call you and give you some absolutely free mayor
to advice.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, hit me with it, all right.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
How long have you been married?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I believe it'll be eleven years? Well, eight years we've
been married.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
We've been together going on eleven.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
I got you, okay? Is your wife? Is your wife
under thirty years old? Uh? No? Okay, Well the chances
are that she was raised in a different generation. I've
been married thirty eight years, and I can tell you this.
My wife would never be embarrassed from whipping out a
(11:55):
gift card because that's how you save money. Yeah, don't
matter how you do it. It don't matter what friends
are sitting there. If you're if her friends have a
problem with YouTube saving money, uh, she needs she needs
to ditch brands and gets news exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
And I tell her, I'm like, it's not that big
of a deal because I go to Kroger, you buy
the gift cards. And by the way, this is not
a paid advertisement for Kroger. You go to Kroger, you
get the gift cards, you get the double fuel points,
you save money at the pumping because we know how
expensive gas is.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
My daughter is thirty three and heard her husband do
that all the time. They don't pay for gas very
little at all. They do it all the time. So
you're doing right, my friends, You're stay on the right tracks.
She'll come around.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Hopefully she'll come around. We'll see what happens. I appreciate
you calling in this morning.

see something really cool as I was scrolling through social
media just now, which by the way, if you want

Rock at Battle on air.

They changed the mic stand for just the fifth time
in a century. Yeah, the old one had grand all
Opry written out.
Speaker 2 (14:09):

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yes, the anniversary isn't until November, but there is going
to be a Opry one hundred special on NBC coming
up here on March nineteenth. I look at the mic
stand and it's it's kind of intriguing. I will say
that if you want to say. It's posted up on
our Instagram at one oh five nine in the Rock. Okay,

Eric Clapton tickets away.
Speaker 2 (14:34):

put money on, chances.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Are people are gonna do it.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It's one O five, not the Rock Nationals, Classic Rock,
It's battle. There are online betting markets right now that
turned their focus to Pope Francis amid his critical health condition.
There is a platforms like Polymarket. They have seen wagers
exceeding four hundred and twenty thousand dollars on questions such
as whether there will be a new Pope in twenty
(16:15):
twenty five, which country the next pope might help from,
and even who is the odds on favorite on becoming
the next pope? Again, people will gamble on just about anything.
I'm just saying, although I feel like that's bad karma
and like, do not pass go go straight to Hell.
If you're gambling on the pope, I'm just saying, it's
(16:37):
like taking bets on Jesus. Right, it's battle in the morning.
It's one o five now on the righte Nashville's classical.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I appreciate you hanging out spit. It's some time with us.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
So the question is how many episodes of a show
should you watch before you give up? I will tell you.
When it came to the show Game of Thrones, I
made it thirty minutes into it. I was just like, no,
that is same for me. I'm not watching it in
anymore whatsoever. A new study based on IMDb ratings found
that you should give a TV show at least six
episodes sport to get good. Some shows that took a
(17:09):
while to research potential include Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, and Friends. Now,
of those three that I just mentioned, I have seen
one entire series that was Breaking Bad, couldn't get into Seinfeld,
couldn't get into Friends and the one show that I
never could get into, and program director Jonathan will probably
yell at me for this when he gets in here
the office. I think that show sucked. I gave it
(17:32):
ten minutes and it was awful. It is a two
for Tuesday. It's one O five nine the Right, Nashville's
classic rock. It's Battle in the Morning. Appreciate you hanging out,
but it's some time with us. So apparently today is
a Unique Names Day.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yeah, so happy Unique Names Day.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Social Security Administration list the one thousand most common baby
names each year, so if you're way down that list,
well you've got a unique name. According to the most
recent that's the one thousandth most popular name for boys
is Hollis and uh for girls a Lannie.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
That's that's the unique.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Least popular name for boys and girls. Battle didn't even
make the lists. Yeah, so I guess I'm not that
cool part. So no, right, natural It's classic rock.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
If you haven't done so, go ahead and uh, you.
Speaker 1 (18:25):

It was only a matter of time before the doo
of the day he got back to Florida rights. Hey,
it's battle. If your partner ask you what you think
of your cooking, maybe consider whether or not they're still
holding a kitchen knife.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
A forty three year old woman in Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Was arrested for aggravated battery after she stabbed her boyfriend.
The guy said that they're arguing over well, his unwillingness
to eat her cooking.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Unfortunately, there's no word what she made.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
He told police she was swinging an eight inch knife
in him and gashed his forearm when he tried to
defend himself. She admits that they're arguing over cooking, but
she says she struck him with a napkin holder.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
In any event, the guy will be fine.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
He received stitches and was released. It sounds like something
that should be on the Jerry Springer Show, The Doll
of the Day.
