Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Man, I messed up. I got so obsessed with a project.
Here I'm going through file after file after file. I
could sing the song I was gonna play, but I'm
not gonna do that to you.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Oh, I'm sorry. It's Friday in the Morning Show with
Preston Scott. Great to be with you. We uh will start.
How about we just do this. We'll just do a
lengthier devotional than we normally do on Friday. We'll just
make it like every other day. You know, the thing
about we've been talking about Joshua or a Jonah and

(00:58):
Jonah is is a really good lesson in just you
and me and the simple things that come with following God.
You know I was thinking about I was reflecting on
our conversation if you missed it yesterday with Chris and

(01:19):
Lacy Ryan, I've got the blog up. It just went
up this morning. It's got the links, it's got the interview.
They were incredible. But I got to thinking about this.
The reason you and I are Christians today is because

(01:40):
a group of guys in a group of gals that
followed Christ witnessed the miracles, witnessed the teaching, walked with him,
talked with him, and Oh, by the way, went to

(02:06):
their death, never once denying. Some died because of their testimony.
For Jesus, you didn't keep saying that stuff. Yeah, yeah,

(02:28):
I am you and I are here because they followed
the Great Commission. Chris and Lacey are taking that great commission,
applying it to their lives and are setting everything aside
and taking themselves to a country that is about as

(02:50):
godless as it comes. Half a percent of the nation.
They're going to call themselves Christian half of one percent.
They just don't believe in any kind of God none.

(03:12):
When you look at Jonah, Jonah was told in chapter
one to go. He didn't pray about it. He didn't go.
He fled. God got his attention, and so in chapters
one and two we see this back and forth between

(03:36):
Jonah and God. And what was the result in Jonah
three verse ten in Nineveh? When God saw what they did,
how they turned from their evil way, God relented of
the disaster he had said he would do to them,

(03:58):
and he did not do it. Why even though Jonah
was angry about it because he hated these people, God
honored Jonah's obedience, and it led to a further interaction

(04:26):
between Jonah and God. But the big takeaway in all
of this for you and me is through our God
chooses to use you and I to accomplish his purposes,
even if at times we do it begrudgingly, the act

(04:49):
of obedience is honored. Man, I don't want to I
don't want to tell these people about about you. I
don't want to do it. God's like, just do it.
I don't want to do it. Some sow, some reap,

(05:14):
but it's God who brings the whole thing together. God
brings the real growth in the harvest. We just have
to do our part. Ten past the hour, it's the
Morning Show with Preston Scott. We were just talking about

(05:39):
because they said I thought you were ready. It wouldn't
have been long for me to be ready. But doing
a project for one of our bosses and I got
a little focused. Sorry, I've see I'm just I'm just me.

(06:02):
You have to love me. You don't have to like me,
but you have to love me. If you say you're
a Christian, you have to love me. You don't have
a choice. You don't have to like me. But that's okay,
It's all right inside the American Patriots Almanac. Here we've

(06:24):
got fifteen oh two Christopher Columbus sales from Cadiz, Spain
on his fourth and final trip to the New World.
Fifteen oh two. Seventeen fifty four, Benjamin Franklin's Pennsylvania Gazette
publishes America's first political cartoon. It's the I don't think

(06:48):
a lot of people when they see the cartoon of
the snake that's cut up into individual pieces showing the colonies,
and it said underneath, join or die. That is the first,
That is the first political cartoon ever published in America.

(07:15):
Join or die. Be part of the movement, the revolution,
let's see here. Eighteen sixty five, Richard Gatling receives a
patent for the Gatling Gun early machine gun. That was
a devastating weapon of its time. Turning that handle up,

(07:44):
there was no fighting. That mo people down with that thing.
Nineteen twenty six, explorer Richard Byrd and co pilot Floyd
Bennett claimed to have made the first flight over the
North Pole. That is now been disputed by some, but
that's what's recorded on this date in history. In the
nineteen seventy four House Judiciary Committee begins impeachment hearings against

(08:07):
prejudt President Nixon. I'm not a crook. I'm not a crook.
You need to know that your president's not a crook.
I'm not a cirk. Let's see here. Today is National
Home Front Heroes Day, National Alphabet Magnet Day. You would
think we didn't have enough to celebrate, so we created

(08:29):
National Alphabet Magnet Day. Really, National Sleepover Day, National Butterscotch
Brownie Day. I will tell you butterscotch is a very
underrated flavor, and I think because it mimics caramel in

(08:51):
some ways, but it's not. It's different, but it I
think people disregard a good butterscotch brownie. Sunday, a butterscotch Sunday.
It is a National Loss Sock Memorial Day. Who has

(09:11):
a lost socks and wondered where did they all go?
National Knockout Rose Day, National Military Spouse Appreciation Day. If
you were the spouse of one in serving in the military,
we thank you because you are sacrificing as well. And
National Provider Appreciation Day. That's the Friday before Mother's Day,

(09:36):
which by the way, is Sunday. Don't forget sixteen past
the hour. Lots to share on today's program. Nothing like

(10:03):
little leave. I'll start you day. Great battery roundup is
coming up in a week. It's it's not tomorrow, it's
next week.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
So lasso up them batteries that you need to get
rid of, not automotive batteries, not vake pens, no batteries
every other than five pounds.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
But gathering together. We'll tell you about it next week.
The box fan drive is underway. We're starting to get
some box fans. So whether you are in Panama City,
go to the Bay or Walton County Ace hardware stores
near you, buy a box fan and leave it the
Bay County Council on Aging. We'll take it from there

(10:51):
and we will get them to senior adults that need
them here in the Tallahassee region. Thank you Westminster Oaks
for helping us with this project. You can drop off
your box fans wherever you get them here locally at
the PEPSI distribution center on West Pensacola Street thirty nine
nineteen across from TSC, or here at the radio station

(11:15):
during normal business hours. We would appreciate it very much.
Running it through the month of May. You believe next
week we're gonna be halfway through the month of May.
Oh my gosh, time is just unless you're on the moon.

(11:41):
You're laughing jose See, we don't know how often I
crack him up because he leaves his mic off, because
he's prone to sudden outbursts.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, well, I mean it's so much that I don't
want the show to be just me laughing.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Well, yeah, I'm so funny. No, you should know that
that jose Is is so focused on his job, and
if a sneeze comes upon him, you will drive off
the road if it's amplified in your ears. It's so

(12:17):
funny because I had someone, I had someone to say
to me, you talked about jose sneezing. We had a
guy that worked here in that his name was Jose
and and and when he sneezed, the entire building shook.
It's got to be the same guy. I was like,
probably not. And then I came came here and I said,

(12:38):
did you work it? Me went, yeah, oh, man, the legend.
The legend grows world famous. That's it, buddy. So let
me ask you a question. Now, what time is it
on the moon right now? It's a moon thirty can't
answer the question. Can't you know that's the thing. I'm serious.

(13:03):
Congress is hoping to pass a bill to establish celestial
time standardization. They want the Moon to have its time.
And here's the thing. Don't think, well, just go with
Greenwich meantime or whatever. It doesn't work that way. I

(13:26):
didn't know this. This is really If this bill passes
the House and the Senate, signed by the President, NASA
would have to figure out a lunar time, a celestial
time standardization. Here's why, hold on, let me dig into
this here. The reason has to do with Einstein's theory

(13:48):
of relativity, showing the gravity, mass and the passage of
time are linked. Time on the Moon passes about fifty
eight point seven microseconds faster than on Earth because the
gravity of the Moon the lower mass, creates a change

(14:12):
in how time moves, and so when you're dealing with
the kind of precision required for space travel, communication, navigation
between lunar surfaces and art, that difference can cause huge issues.

(14:35):
So even though it's fifty eight point seven millions of
a second, that difference matters. So they've got to figure
out how to create a time zone up there. Now,
what's funny in this story is. You see all kinds
of people posting. I looked at this story online on

(14:57):
social media and there were people it's not the it's
not the US's right to establish it. The moon is
all of ours. Okay, shut up, go start it, Go
put the time zone together, then zip it. If we
figured out, we'll do it. And if you don't like it, fine,

(15:18):
don't do it and ruin all of your whatever you're
gonna do. Apparently, because we're going back to the Moon
and others are interested in doing the same, they've got
to figure this out. They never thought they'd have to.
But they're gonna talk about talk about problems you never
think of, never would have thought of that, never would

(15:38):
have thought of that. But that's why you listen to
the show, because now you're burdened with that problem if
you decide to travel to the Moon. Setting your watch,
good luck. Twenty seven minutes past the hour. Big stories
in the press box coming up. It's traffic, weather, sports, entertainment,

(16:01):
and the Truth. The Morning Show with Preston Scott on
News Radio one hundred point seven wuf LA. Friday. In

(16:24):
the Morning Show, What's the Beef comes up in the
third hour. Next hour. Another edition of what would you do?
Put you in a situation and you tell me would
you would you not? Why or why not? That's coming up.
But yeah, this is this is this is kind of crazy.

(16:52):
The US has reached a tariff deal with the UK.
Few details leaking out, what we know what's been announced.
We know that ranchers, farmers, producers in America get a
win here five billion dollars of new export opportunities. Just

(17:16):
in the UK. The United States will raise six billion
in new tariffs. It's being described as a win win
for both countries. We're going to be sending ethanol over there,
We're gonna be sending beef and produce. There's an aluminum

(17:44):
steel trading zone, pharmaceutical supply chain assurances. Every time a
deal gets made, the pressure builds on China. So this
is gonna be interesting. But obviously yesterday the dominant story.

(18:13):
I mean, just think, listen to what happens here as
the smoke turns white at at at the Vatican. It's incredible.

(18:40):
I mean, people are crying, they're jumping up and down.
There it's there, It's it's crazy. Did you did you
notice how quiet it was when this started? And and
and so there's smoke billowing from this area where they're

(19:05):
holding their vote, and it turns white. It's incredible. And
so Cardinal Robert Prevost is now Pope Leo the fourteenth.

(19:34):
The name change is based on Jesus changing the name
of Simon to Simon, Peter to Peter. On this rock
Petra Peter, I will build my church, and the name
change is symbolic of taking on that responsibility. Why they
choose one name versus another, you know, it's steeped in

(19:59):
Catholic tradition, but the idea of the name change is
based on what happened with Peter. They consider the They
meaning Catholics, consider the pope to be literally a spiritual
descendant of Peter, and there's been a few hundred of them.

(20:26):
I personally struggle with the I announced to you a
great joy we have a pope, the most eminent, the
most reverend, Lord Lord France. I'm sorry I struggle with that,
and I know that some of you are upset with
me that I hammer on things like that. But how
about if I lighten the mood with this. Chicago produced

(20:49):
a pope, an American pope. Some thought it would never
happen Chicago produced a pope before it produced a four
thousand yard core or back. I'm just saying that's incredible.
Forty minutes past. Now, there are some obvious issues. This

(21:14):
is the Morning Show with Preston Scott forty two past.
Here's one of the big problems. Well, first of all,
understand that the new Pope was a handpicked member of

(21:37):
the inner circle of the preceding pope, Pope Francis, and
so there are many that would say that he is
a doctrinally mirror image of his predecessor. We'll see he's

(21:59):
considered a humble man. Many are that are in that.
There have been a lot of criticisms raised about the
fact that he was not very forthcoming in the handling
of a sexual abuse settlement involving a priest in his

(22:24):
archdiocese that had sexually assaulted three girls. That there was
a little of that. I would imagine those three girls
will have some thoughts on this at some point soon.
But in a Catholic publication that I looked at, looking

(22:49):
at all of the candidates under blessing same sex couples,
he's listed as ambiguous, although he breast reservations about sympathy
for beliefs and practices that contradict the Gospel, sympathies for

(23:11):
beliefs and practices that contradict the gospels. I have sympathies
stressing the need for national Bishops Conferences to have doctrinal
authority to interpret and apply such directives in their local
contexts given cultural differences. He did not fully endorse nor

(23:35):
reject a document called Fiducia Supplicants, which deals with same
sex marriages. Ambiguity on same sex marriages tells you that
he has no position, he's unwilling to take one. And
so I'm sorry, my friends, you are starting with a

(23:59):
massive doctrinal shortfall here. Even the expression of reservations about
sympathy for beliefs and practices that contradict the Gospel, there
is no there are no reservations. Sin is sin. We

(24:28):
all sin. But what we don't do is we don't say, oh,
go ahead and sin some more, because that's not what
Jesus said. Jesus said, Hey, is there anyone around here
to accuse you to the woman? Don't sin anymore? And

(24:48):
there's the difference. We all sin, we all make mistakes.
The difference is this the new poem, like his predecessor
was unwilling to say stop it. And my friends, I

(25:09):
hate to be the person that tells you this, but
I am bound by my personal allegiance to Christ to
tell you the leader of the Catholic Church is doctrinally flawed,
and that's not supposed to be the case when you're

(25:32):
picking someone to lead your church, your religion. Forty six
minutes after the album, all right, little aviation news, because

(25:59):
you know, I'm a frustrated would be pilot, want to
be pilot. I'm not just I've soloed people a right
now going oh no, we're not going through this again.
I just say that as a point of explanation because
this just fascinates me. Heart Aerospace of Sweden. It's a

(26:20):
hybrid electric regional aircraft developer. They're moving their ops to America.
Isn't that interesting? Now? Word is that this was planned,
but I got to believe that the re establishment of
American manufacturing as a priority is making a difference and

(26:41):
bringing business to the country. Now they're locating in Los Angeles,
and I questioned that until I recognized, well, the reason
is they create commuter aircrafts that run on electric I'm
not there. I am not in the electric airplane category.

(27:04):
Although I recognize that, you know, much like an electric
car has an acceleration capability that just literally blows away
combustion engines because it's immediate power to the to the
wheels instantaneously. It's still it's tough for me to get

(27:26):
my brain around a thirty seat electric hybrid that can
fly one hundred and eight miles, another one that can
go two hundred and sixteen nautical miles, another one that
can go four hundred and thirty two with twenty five passengers.
I just I think about the weight alone of the batteries,

(27:48):
but that's all taken into account. They're gonna have a
demonstrator up in the air in Plattsburgh, New York this year.
I'm gonna be fascinated to see a plane of this
size that can carry twenty five to thirty people. I'm

(28:09):
gonna be fascinated to see this thing fly. The other
piece of aviation news that I think is is this
is going to change a lot of things as this
technology gets more mainstreamed and it's safe return emergency auto
land for the first time, it's in a single engine,

(28:32):
piston aircraft, the Cirrus SR series, the G seven plus
SR for safe return. Cirrus is known as a spouse
airplane for that because if something happens to a pilot,

(28:53):
a non flying passenger can push a button on Now
on a Sirius. But I've flown in an airplane and
in fact piloted an airplane that had a safe return
on it. And this was a few years ago, but
now it's becoming more widespread. Safe return allows a passenger
to push up one button. It immediately radios and notifies

(29:18):
air traffic control that there's an emergency, a medical emergency,
and the pilot's incapacitated. It immediately begins navigating, avoiding terrain, obstacles, weather.
It does an immediate determination of the closest airport with
appropriate runway length and emergency capabilities. It communicates to the

(29:42):
air traffic controllers that there is a medical emergency. Emergency
equipment then is brought to the airport. And get this,
it auto lands. So if you're the passenger, you've never flown,
and the person next to you has an incident, you
hit that button. The plane does everything and comes to

(30:05):
a complete full stop and shuts down. The engine at
the end of the runway, one push of one button.
It's it's it's brilliant. And the fact that it's now
coming to mainline aviation general aviation is a game changer

(30:26):
because it just reduces so much risk. I would imagine
even a pilot gets upside down in a bad you know,
emergency weather situation. Whatever can Yeah, all right, our two
is next, right. Uh yeah, I did not do a

(30:59):
very good job teasing this segment. I'm sorry. I got
carried away talking about flying related things. I'm I'm sorry,
but I'll make up for it because it's time for
another edition of What would You Do? That's right. We
present you with a scenario and you tell us would you,

(31:20):
would you not? Why? Or why not? And so these
are these are actually situations that we are being presented
in the news in What's going on today? And so
for today's What would You Do? The phone lines are
open at eight five zero two zero five WFLA. That's

(31:42):
eight five zero two zero five ninety three fifty two.
If you'd like to join us and play along, you
may call right now eight five zero two zero five WFLA.
Here it is Would you ride in an autonomous car?
Where you are the passenger and there is no driver

(32:05):
in the front seat whatsoever. A taxi a ride share
where you are the passenger. It picks you up and
takes you where you need to go in the city,
to the airport, to wherever, and no one is at
the wheel. You're sitting in the passenger seat or the

(32:26):
back seat. Uber and Waimo are working on this, They're
looking at they're creating, as we speak, an interest list
in Atlanta to roll this out in Atlanta, of all places.
And so my question is real simple, would you do it?

(32:46):
Would you be a passenger with only your app to
control what's going on, tell you, tell the vehicle where
you need to go on the app? And so I
want to know if you would trust the technology, not

(33:07):
just now. Ever, there's not a chance I would. No way.
I struggle just letting anybody else drive, period. I want
to be the driver. It's not that I can't allow
somebody else to drive. I can, but I don't like to.

(33:30):
I like to be the one controlling. It's not that
much different than piloting. I would love Now, I'm not
proficient enough as a pilot to say that I'm better
than a professional pilot. I'm not I don't have that experience,
not even close. But my point is I feel better

(33:53):
in charge. I'm just being honest. So eight five zero
two zero five WFLA. Would you would you be a
writer in an autonomous car?

Speaker 4 (34:08):
And and.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
I just I'm encouraging you with the the game show
music eight five zero two zero five WFLA. As happened
last time when we did this. I just need someone
to break the ice here. Could you see yourself doing this?
I've seen stories of these autonomous vehicles not you know,

(34:34):
getting in REX and pilot programs being stopped. Right now,
Uber and Waimo, which is an Alphabet owned company, are
are working on this pilot together. Lift is wanting to
do the same thing there. They want to integrate autonomous vehicles.

(34:55):
The prices are the same in Atlanta. You can drive
across sixty five square miles of Atlanta from downtown to
Buckhead to Capitol View, and then it's going to expand
into other territories over time. The rates are going to

(35:16):
be the same as if you were taking Uber x, Ubergreen,
Uber Comfort or Uber Comfort Electric, which means they're slightly
elevated rates. I'm not sure, I would take an automated
vehicle at at an inflated rate let alone at all.
But we're going to take calls eight five zero two
zero five to BFLA. It's ten minutes past the hour.
Your calls. We've got callers standing by next right them

(35:42):
at Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Yes he knows how
to read. Well, actually his producer reads him. He doesn't
know how to read. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott.
Now we gotta do we gotta do better than that.

(36:03):
This is this is game show time. So yeah, uh uh,
what would you do? We're going to the phone lines. Mike,
thanks for calling in this morning. What would you do?

Speaker 5 (36:20):
Hey, Preston. I was out in Phoenix last week and
these waimos are running everywhere. We pulled up to a
red light. One pulled up next to us. No driver.
They have sensors and cameras going in all directions that.
It was an odd looking contraption. I really didn't see
anybody in one, but they were going everywhere, and I'm

(36:41):
not sure I would ride in one until I saw
one break check somewhere.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
What was it like just seeing it on the road
with no driver.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
It's odd because it's not something we're used to here,
but apparently it's seems to be common out there. We
got we stayed down near the airport in town, and
as we got closer to the airport, they were just
running in all directions.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
How about that? All right, Mike? Thanks very much. I
appreciate that. Eight five zero two zero five to bfl
A Kyle, would you would you ride in one of
these things?

Speaker 4 (37:14):
Under current circumstances? Not at all.

Speaker 6 (37:17):
If every vehicle had the technology, I would consider it,
but I don't know how well they can advance for
people that aren't that you know, they're driving regular cars,
so you know, if every vehicle had the technology, maybe
I would consider it, but not under what we currently have.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
Fair enough, Thank you, Kyle. Appreciate that simple as that
see eight five zero two zero five to wfl A Richard,
would you jump in one of these autonomous vehicles and
take a ride? Run some errands or not.

Speaker 7 (37:47):
Not a way?

Speaker 8 (37:48):
And heyds would I do it?

Speaker 9 (37:52):
What I've got?

Speaker 8 (37:53):
I've got twenty three thousand dollars as a professional pilot,
and a great deal of that was on autopilot, but
at all times I could grab the controls, and on
several occasions I had to, and I just don't. I
don't like anything. Well, I'm not real fond of this
AI anyway.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Right right? Tell me what'd you fly? What kind of
what kind of aircraft?

Speaker 8 (38:18):
Anywhere? From A B forty seven, B fifty two seven
twenty seven seven forty seven your name it?

Speaker 1 (38:26):
So you flew for the for the United States military.
Thank you so much for serving our country.

Speaker 8 (38:32):
Well military in the airline.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Absolutely, thank you, sir. I appreciate you. You're very welcome, Richard.
Great call there. Let's go to Anthony. Hi, Anthony, what
about you?

Speaker 9 (38:45):
Not likely, because like you, I like to be in control.

Speaker 5 (38:50):
But I also get carsick if I'm not driving.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Do you get carsick in the passenger seat, in the
front or just in the back seat?

Speaker 5 (38:58):
No, I'll get carsick anyway in the car, doesn't really matter,
but it's worth in the.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
Back, gotcha? Gotcha? So you're a hard no on this one.
Oh yeah, yeah, be safe out there, brother. Appreciate the
phone call eight five zero two zero five to BFLA Susan.
Thanks for calling in. Are you jumping in one of
these things and riding around?

Speaker 10 (39:18):
Absolutely not and I'm just like you. If I'm driving, I.

Speaker 11 (39:23):
Want to be the one in control.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Okay, so if you and I are, if you and
I are in a car together, who's driving?

Speaker 10 (39:32):
It's gonna be a struggle. Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 11 (39:38):
I don't like driving.

Speaker 12 (39:39):
I don't like.

Speaker 10 (39:40):
Riding with someone else driving. I have control issues.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
I understand, I got you. Uh So, there's no circumstance
in which you're jumping in one of these cars. What
if it's the only way to get to the airport.

Speaker 10 (39:54):
I'm not likely to go to the airport because I'm
not that crazy about flying.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
Understood, fair enough? A all right, Susan, thank you very much.
Let's go to Dan. Dan, what about you?

Speaker 13 (40:05):
I would reluctantly get in one because there's no way
it could be any worse than a cab ride I
took in Amsterdam on Paris, and you know I'm the driver.
But it can't. I mean, this is a long time ago,
but I'm sure it's safer than that was.

Speaker 14 (40:19):
Dan.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
You know what you raise a really interesting question, and
that is does it change if you're in a community
in a city, for example, where whether it's overseas or
domestic like New York city. Would you rather take an
autonomous vehicle trusting that it's going to give you the
fastest direct route somewhere versus someone giving you the scenic route,

(40:43):
you know what I mean, to make a little extra money.

Speaker 13 (40:46):
Yeah, I don't know that that would be a toughye.
But I've seen they've got those autonomous like floor wiper things.
I saw one of those at the hospital and they
were kids that were getting in front of that thing
and it will stop, you know. It was one of
those automatic things like a roomba yep, and there were
kids playing with it. They were getting in front of
it and saying, was you stopping immediately? They were messing

(41:08):
with it while they were up there. So I think
cabs are probably gonna be about that same way.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Dan, thanks very much, appreciate the phone call. Jenny and
Amy and Chris, You're up next. It's interesting. I remember
being in a Walmart the first time I saw an
autonomous floor sweeper. Was it was this massive machine that
was that was wiping the floor, squeezing them and sweeping

(41:34):
and drying all at once. It was crazy watching that
thing move around shoppers and just do its thing, taking
calls eight five zero two zero five WFLA, would you
get in an autonomous vehicle and let it drive you
around with no one driving but the AI technology? Twenty

(42:10):
two minutes past the hour, we are taking calls and
we are asking a simple question. Would you ride in
an autonomous vehicle in the passenger seat or backseat with
no chance of intervening? You're it? That's all you got, Jenny.

(42:37):
Are you taking a ride in one of these things?

Speaker 12 (42:40):
No? Thanks, not the least been interested, especially since I
can't drive.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
So even though you're unable to drive, this type of
technology doesn't interest you.

Speaker 12 (42:54):
No, especially since I can't see. It might drive me
into something I wouldn't know.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
So you're not trusting the artificial intelligence and the technology
included in this to take you where you need to be.

Speaker 12 (43:09):
Correct. I'd rather have a physical person driving me.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Gotcha, Jenny, Thanks very much. I appreciate the phone call.
Let's go to Amy Amy Europ. What do you think?

Speaker 12 (43:19):
Hey, good morning?

Speaker 10 (43:20):
Pressing?

Speaker 15 (43:20):
Well, much like the not wanting to ride in airplanes?
I think that was your question last week. I would
also differ from writing in a car that I have
no control over. I see this just being a horror movie.
Getting ready to turn from locking the doors and speeding
up and putting the heat on and the other things

(43:42):
that folks had mentioned, like are the breaks with artificial intelligence.
It only knows the algorithms that are put into it
by humans, and it doesn't have enough information for every
potential scenario that humans may have a better reaction for.
And also says I don't even knew the self checkout.

(44:02):
So I see a whole other issue with this. As
technology continues to develop, we are essentially creating markets that
are driving humans out of the workforce, and I think
long term effects are going to it can cause big
problems in the long run.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
I think Amy, thank you very much. Yeah, the situation
she mentioned, if you missed it last week, was people
trapped on two airplanes sitting in a tarmac and not
allowed to get off the airplane overnight. They had to
stay on the plane all night long, and we asked
what would you do? Artificial intelligence is going to create
more and more of these scenarios where we asked the

(44:40):
question what would you do? And I can't wait. We're
going to do this from time to time as the
news warrants. Chris second to the last caller here, what would.

Speaker 16 (44:49):
You do well, Kirstin, I was going to mention the
Walmart flour cleaner, just like you said. Now, at the
top speed of this autonomous car was the same as
that wore cleaner, and you had the ability to jump
on and off like a San Francisco street car, then yeah, yeah,
I do that, you know. But if it weren't any

(45:11):
type of speed, then then no. But then going back
to your previous question about staying on the tarmac, we
were in Peru and for some reason the plane had
a mechanical issue and we were on the tarmac for
like ten hours. They wouldn't let us off the plane.
They said, if you get off the plane, you can't
get back on. So we had no choice but to

(45:34):
just sit on the plane for ten hours.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
Thank you, Chris. Got to move on, got to stay
on the topic here. And that's Regina, thanks for calling in.

Speaker 11 (45:42):
Hey, Preston, I'm the one with the two month old tesla.
It takes me everywhere and I trust it a lot
better than myself.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
Okay.

Speaker 11 (45:53):
I mean I get in it and I say take
me to the Piggly wiggly, and it takes me to
the pig and I sit back and I didn't relax.
And it's not fully autonomous yet, but it's gonna be
soon in it.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
And you're gonna and you're gonna and you're gonna trust.

Speaker 17 (46:08):
That most drivers.

Speaker 11 (46:10):
Okay, we're going across the Apologicola Bridge going fifty min
hour with the others. You've got to learn to trust it.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
Yeah, I'll let you do that, Regina, Thanks very much
for calling in. You all know my my thoughts on EVS.
I just I think you're throwing money away because when
those batteries start to degrade, you are you are in trouble,
and they degrade at a far faster rate than an engine,

(46:42):
a combustion engine. But I don't want to rehash and
relitigate all that. But thanks everybody for your calls. That
was a lot of fun. We've got What's the Beef
coming up next hour, Big stories in the press box
coming up next, Moe's complaints, Who's mo I'll tell you
next on them all make a show with Preston's.

Speaker 18 (47:00):
Guy What's the Beef?

Speaker 1 (47:23):
In a half hour. We'll start taking your calls and
getting you ready in about twenty minutes or so. Good
morning Friday. Here in the morning show, I'm Preston Jose.
I think I think the rain in the cloudiness over
the last few days, it's just kind of everybody's just
kind of in a mellow mood. It's kind of calm,

(47:46):
ruining my opportunities to work in my yard, I'll tell you,
because you don't mow wet grass. It's bad, bad idea. Anyway,
this is what happened yesterday when the smoke changed color
at the Vatican. Right. What in the.

Speaker 19 (48:13):
World Chicago produces a pulp before a four thousand yard
throwing quarterback for the Bears.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
How'd that happen? Yeah, the excitement is absolutely off the
chain at the Vatican City. There's obviously shock in some

(48:48):
circles because Robert Provo's the cardinal, is an American, and
it was seen as an impossibility that the one hundred
and thirty three cardinals would come to consensus and it's
sixty six percent plus one have to vote in favor

(49:12):
of and it was just four votes and they chose.
I mean, first, the guy can speak multiple languages. You know,
it's not like he's going to be saying that Bears,
you know, I mean, he's he's he's he's a renaissance

(49:33):
man to a large extent, spend a great deal of
time in Peru. We don't know what he'll do salary wise.
It was raised by a listener. Check into the salary. Now,
traditionally the pope does get a salary. Reports show that

(50:01):
the wage for the position is thirty two thousand dollars
per month. Pope Francis either donated his money to the church,
used it for a foundation, placed it in a trust,
or passed it on to a family member. Now does
that cover the costs, rent, food, and so forth? Probably not.

(50:29):
Those are matters I'll leave to others. I think that
most of us would say that thirty two thousand dollars
a month is healthy for a oath of poverty. Look,
I'm not picking at that. That doesn't bother me nearly

(50:50):
so much in any way, shape or form, as does
bad doctrinal teaching. And the concern here is that the
new Pope, Leo the fourteenth is going to continue bad theology.
We'll see he's ambiguous on same sex marriage, which is

(51:11):
another way of saying he's tacitly approving it. His history
says as much. There are questions about his handling of
sexual indiscretions underneath the archdiocese, that in the archdiocese that
he presided over, his handling of settlements and so forth.
It's you know, you know my feelings on all of this.

(51:35):
I understand the biblical explanation for the position. I don't
think that Peter would have allowed anybody to call him lord.
I think Peter would have slapped it down in a minute,
if not quite literally slapped it down. You know, Peter

(52:01):
Peter was a man, and I think he would have
been greatly offended at anybody calling him lord. But yet
that's how the Vatican announced the selection of Leo. They
here's their announcement. You know, I'm not picking with no
source of I mean, this is from the cardinal pro

(52:25):
deacon himself, the most eminent, the most reverend, Lord Lord
Robert Francis, Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church Prevost, who
has taken the name Leo the fourteenth. So there you go.
Definitely the big story in the press box forty one
minutes after the hour stay with us. Are you among

(52:56):
the people that think Michelle Obama's a guy? No? I
am not, But I think it is hilarious that people
think that. I mean, I get it. You know comments
Barack made and slips of the tongue, and you know

(53:17):
people saying they're no photos of Michelle Obama pregnant. I
don't know. I I don't believe so. But nothing would
surprise me nothing. Having said that, I'm stunned at the

(53:43):
number of people. And don't email me. Please please don't
don't call about that. You can call during what's the
beef that I don't believe. That's fine, that's fair game.
I just the number of people that are absolutely certain
that Michelle Obama's mike. And they point to a recent interview.

(54:12):
See Michelle admitted it right there. No, no, I listened
to it. No, that's not what happened. You can try
all your you want, but that's not what happened. But
there are other and episodes and interviews and comments going

(54:35):
back years to when Barack Obama was first coming on
the national scene that have raised questions. Michelle, though for
her part, is now complaining about her time in the
White House for expenses that she had to pay for,
did an interview complaining about footing the bill for food

(54:57):
and travel when she and her two daughters were not
with the president. Barack Obama quoting, how do you raise
kids in the White House? It's dangerous. As the first
black potential president, we knew there would be death threats
by half black half I mean, mixed race would be accurate.

(55:22):
But and I mean, let's face it, that's why Brock
isn't fully accepted in some circles as the first black president.
And I'm not talking about my circles. I don't care.
But every time someone says as the first black, no
he wasn't. I mean, much is not covered. You're paying
for every food, every bit of food that you eat.

(55:44):
You know, you're not paying for housing and stuff like
staff in it, but everything even travel if you're not
traveling with the president. If your kids are coming on
a bright Star, which is the first Lady's plane, Yeah
we all have a plane, don't we. We had to
pay for their travel to be on thel. So the
president gets four hundred thousand dollars a year to be

(56:06):
the president. And she's leaving out this little simple tidbit.
When they entered the White House, they had a net
worth between one point three and one point eight million.
They now have a net worth of seventy million dollars.
Book deals media collabs speaking engagements, and that's fine as

(56:29):
long as you did it honestly, which you know I don't.
I don't have any reason to think they didn't. But
the complaining is just so tacky, right, really complaining forty
six minutes after the hot and that's I mean, you
could consider that priming the pump for what's the beef. Yeah,

(57:01):
always will get a little pushed back in reaction, some
very kind, some not so much on commentary as it
relates to the Catholic Church and the pope and the
doctrine and so forth. Let me let me be very clear,
as I've said repeatedly, there's no doubt that there are
people sitting in Catholic churches across the world, around the

(57:24):
world that love Jesus absolutely, just like there are people
that love Jesus sitting in every church, and just like
every other church, the Catholic Church has people that are
that are that are just wrong, just like my church
and every other church. There are people that are just
punching kind of a spiritual time clock. Well, I've gone

(57:45):
to church for the day, and they really don't know Jesus,
they don't care, they're not following Christ. They're not trying
to be better, they're not trying to have their life change.
So that's that's that's across all all churches. But what
is what? What? What? I will never ever back down
from his doctrinal If doctrine is wrong, it's wrong. I

(58:06):
don't give a crap what church it falls in. I've
called out the prosperity messages of many of today's non
denominational evangelical churches. Give to get, God wants to bless
you with riches. Well, I'd love for you to define riches.
But for a lot of these evangelical pastors, defining riches

(58:29):
is like a democrat defining an assault weapon. Good luck,
but I'm sorry. I will never ever back off of
criticizing a person leading now the Catholic Church who is
wishy washy on same sex marriage, who's not forthright in

(58:54):
dealing with sexual abuse of people under their their authority. No,
had one gentleman, very kindly just write to me and
just say, you know, the beautiful part about of America
is you know the freedom to choose, But you don't
get to choose doctrine. That's the point. You don't have

(59:19):
that liberty. I will not allow you to have the
liberty to take God's word and make it mean whatever
you want. And I'm not saying that's what this gentleman
was doing. I'm saying, we do not have that luxury.
We do not have that liberty. I will contend for
what God's word says, and wherever the chips fall, they fall,

(59:41):
so be it, whether it's in the Evangelical Christian movement
or in the Catholic Church, or in the Lutheran Church,
or the Presbyterian or Episcopalian, or whatever church and or
religion you want to make it. I will always defend
the purity of God's word. Well, who says you're in

(01:00:02):
because it's not ambiguous, who says I'm interpreting it? Right?
We're not talking about anything that's a mystery. There are
things that I don't know, but they're not doctrinely important.
Those are things that won't figure out when we're standing
before Jesus one day. But when your previous pope says,

(01:00:27):
you know, there are a lot of all paths lead
to God, that's heresy. That's heresy. That is a false
statement of doctrine, that is a lie. And I'm sorry
if that twists. Some of you honestly take it up

(01:00:47):
with the Bible. Not me, take it up with God.
I just know that's wrong, and I know when I
do this, I'm gonna step on toes. But that's okay.
You have to search this out and not based on

(01:01:07):
what your your priest, or your your right reverend or
your lord whatever. What does the Bible say. You're not
gonna find a Bible that says same sex marriage is cool.
You're not gonna find a Bible that says anything other
than narrow is the gate and the path by which

(01:01:28):
you get to God. And it's only through Jesus. It's
not through Krishna. It's not through Mohammed, it's not through Tom,
Dick and Harry. It's what's the Bee Friday? That outa do? Huh?
What do you think? Eight five zero two zero five
to BFLA eight five zero two zero five ninety three

(01:01:51):
fifty two. Your calls are next? All right, citizens, time
to call in. It's What's to be Friday here on
the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Whatever you want to
complain about, it's fine. Even if it's me, I'll take it.

(01:02:18):
I'll have my chin stuck out and I'll have my
handkerchief standing by, but I'll take it. Eight five zero
two zero five to BFLA. We have two simple rules.
No profanity. Don't make it personal, even if you're attacking me,
just don't make it personal and we'll be fine. I'm

(01:02:38):
a big boy. But it's eight five zero two zero
five WSLA. There is no shortage of things always going
on in the world, in the news, in your life
that you could find something to get off your chest.
And here's the thing. By getting it out, there is

(01:02:59):
almost therapeutic value to that. It's why we do this
because we believe it contributes to a kinder, gentler you
and a kinder gentler community. By extension, wherever you live
and call home. So call now eight five zero two
zero five to BFLA. We have three lines wide open

(01:03:21):
and you can be on the air. But Ron has
called in. Good morning, my friend, welcome and what's the beef?

Speaker 7 (01:03:28):
Hello, Preston, always thank you, thank you every day. Somebody
should start with that. And you were so right. It's
scary that the GOP is the same old, same old.
They're gonna, you know, be sissies again. They don't never
stand out. What do we got six people maybe that
really stand up. Like kat Rick Scott was on a

(01:03:50):
couple of days ago, we could go ten days something
like that, and he was just like, yeah, we're here
in Washington, and that's the way it is. We're trying
to do just on and on and on. We should
have been in the elevator with you met morning, you know,
but that's my way. The people's got.

Speaker 13 (01:04:05):
To stand up.

Speaker 7 (01:04:06):
Ruminators, you gotta do something. You're the only station that
says make a difference. Somebody did use that line on
another talk show somewhere. I heard him say that, and
I thought, oh, you sold that from President. But anyway,
that's my beef.

Speaker 16 (01:04:23):
People.

Speaker 7 (01:04:24):
We've got to make these people say we're on a roll.
Maybe this little snowball might get going and make a
really big difference. But if we don't do something, we
the people, it's not going to happen. Thank you very much, President,
have a great weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:04:39):
You do the same, my friend, and as always, thank
you for the very kind words. Eight five zero two
zero five to b FLA. George is standing by and
we've got time for you. We've got room. I don't
what's going on here, huh, Huh, let's go eight five
zero two zero five to b FLA. Good morning, Gordon.

(01:05:00):
How are you.

Speaker 16 (01:05:02):
A pretty good press?

Speaker 7 (01:05:03):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
Did I pronounce your name wrong? Is it not gorg No,
it is it is, It's George. I'm sorry.

Speaker 20 (01:05:14):
It's okay, buddy, it's okay. Like I said, I've been
called a lot worse that it doesn't get me down.
And my beef is with the the stuff with the Pope.
First of all, I don't believe that any person needs
an intermediary to uh to to pray to the Lord.
And I don't believe any man should be called lord
referred to his lord. That just as wrong. But this

(01:05:37):
guy and the last pope were instrumental in covering up
the child abuse and the pedophilia and the and the
kind of things that went on, and it's still going
on in the Catholic Church. But it was uh, they've
you know, buried it, and they put these guys get caught,
you know in other countries and stuff. And it's just uh,

(01:05:57):
if you'll lie about it and area and covered up,
then I don't think you're one. You're not a good
human too. You should not be with the pomp and
circumstance of being lord or any of any of that
press And it goes back to the Catholic Church not
letting their their priests Mary due to the fact that

(01:06:18):
you know, in history, if they would let them marry,
it would change a lot of that. But it goes
back thousands of years. I wanted to comment on the
thing with the taxi. No, I would never do it,
but riding in taxis in New York and Chicago and Washington,
d C. You might be safer.

Speaker 1 (01:06:39):
Well, I was, you know, indirectly, That's kind of what
I was talking about. It's like almost a side hustle
that some taxi drivers take tourists in the roundabout ways
to get more of a fair And I was thinking, well,
at the very least, the autonomous vehicles are probably taking
you the straightest point and the quickest out.

Speaker 20 (01:07:01):
Yeah, and and and it's you know, it may phase
out taxi drivers, but you know, in certain cities a
taxi driver is a legal occupation due.

Speaker 1 (01:07:10):
To royd No kidding, just a reuggary, No, George, thank you.
I appreciate the call. As always, I can't believe what
I'm about to say. We're gonna take a break and
we have four lines wide open eight five zero two
zero five wfl A. Phone lines are ringing. We're getting

(01:07:43):
the calls lined up here eight five zero two zero
five wfl A, but again the lines are now full.
It's What's to be Friday here in the Morning Show
with Preston Scott Andrew. Thanks for calling in. What's your beef?

Speaker 9 (01:07:57):
Mister Scott, thanks for taking my call? Might be swiss
ESPN last weekend, you got two top five baseball teams competing, right,
and they got a lacrosse game instead of the baseball
game on.

Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
What was that about?

Speaker 9 (01:08:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:18):
Yeah, you got you got Clemson in Florida State playing
and they relegate it to streaming service only.

Speaker 9 (01:08:25):
Yeah yeah, and I don't get the acc NX channel,
but I'm listening to the game. Eric Allen on the radio,
bottom of the tenth inning, and I think he chimed
in with like a funeral promotion. What Yeah, there was

(01:08:49):
some sort of like commercial and then it like got
cut short.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
But was it was it the radio broadcast or was
it the stream?

Speaker 9 (01:08:56):
It was a stream on the iHeartRadio.

Speaker 1 (01:08:59):
Yeah, oh boy, oh boy.

Speaker 9 (01:09:03):
I'm glad to know the one and glad I so could.

Speaker 1 (01:09:07):
At least you got to listen, right, that's right, Yeah,
thank you, thanks for call absolutely, Andrew, Thanks very much.

Speaker 15 (01:09:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
They the decisions that are made on what they cover
on ESPN two, ESPNU or the ACC network. Even if
you didn't have even if you had the ACC network,
you were not getting FSU baseball number five in the
nation against number two or three Clemson. It was stunning,

(01:09:36):
absolutely stunning. Two lines are open eight five zero two
zero five WFLA. Let's go to Ray. Good morning, Ray,
Good morning, Preston. How are you?

Speaker 10 (01:09:47):
I am?

Speaker 21 (01:09:47):
I am awesome.

Speaker 22 (01:09:48):
I am awesome, But you know, my beef is for
for a brief rest that I felt like after the
victory in November, it seemed like the media was kind
of doing a Maya koopa and Okay, gosh, we got
it wrong and maybe we've been too hard and the
world is.

Speaker 5 (01:10:08):
Not trusting us.

Speaker 12 (01:10:11):
But Preston, they have.

Speaker 22 (01:10:13):
Like literally doubled down slamming the stupid button. And I
think the media has gotten worse than they were before
with the negative reporting on our president.

Speaker 1 (01:10:26):
Yeah, they just took a time out. They were licking
their wounds and trying to come up with a new strategy.
It almost seemed like that, right. They took a break,
and they gathered together in some little, you know, coven
somewhere and and and decided to come up with a
new attack plan.

Speaker 16 (01:10:47):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 22 (01:10:48):
I agree that that's all it really can be, because
they obviously don't learn.

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
Thank you, Ray, appreciate the phone call, good observation. One
more caller and then we'll take a break. Lines are
opening five zero two zero five to b FLA. Jeffrey,
you're up. What's the beef?

Speaker 16 (01:11:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 21 (01:11:04):
I didn't want to be a regular caller, Preston, but
I thought it would be good to remind people. And
it's so disgusting to see it all going on again
fifty years ago to during this period. Fifty years ago,
during this month, they were throwing Vietnamese people on helicopters
and trying to put them out on it ships on

(01:11:25):
the Tolkien Golf to get him out of Vietnam. It
was a mess. We had three presidents that were lying
the dickens to the American people. Lyndon Johnson called CBS
News and said, you got to fire Maury Schaeffer, one
of the reporters in Vietnam, because he was telling the truth,
and Lyndon Johnson didn't want that to happen. It's just

(01:11:50):
terrible that here we have Vietnam, over fifty thousand of
my cohort people dead, and the same kind of stuff
going on in Washington. President lions people from all the
people who were around the presidents during that time, and
you can check this Kissinger. Most of them all Harvard

(01:12:13):
graduates from that's part of the university system. I'm asking myself.
I sit here at my agent and say, hey, as
far as I can determine, nothing has changed.

Speaker 5 (01:12:26):
That's my beef.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
Thank you, sir, well said. Good monologue. Pedro, you're on deck.
What about you? Eight five zero two zero five w FLA.
What's the Beef? Friday continues with one more segment of calls.
You can be on the air, but you need to
call now. Eight five zero two zero five WFLA. All right,

(01:12:56):
we got all lines for so we're going to take
four callers in this segment. It's what's the Beef and
we begin with Pedro, Good morning, sir, welcome and what
is thy beef?

Speaker 17 (01:13:08):
Hi, good morning, Good morning everyone. Preston. It was an observation.
I just heard the phone call from your previous segment
with the Gentlemen saying, how you know how the Democrats,
what type of line of attacks they come up with,
and how they have to lick their wound for a
few couple of months. And it's interesting. And this is

(01:13:30):
a very interesting observation that I had. If you follow
X and I follow a lot of Democrats just to
troll them, but I would say, on Tuesdays, Tuesday's, Wednesdays,
and Thursdays, right at one thirty, I am telling you
that the post, the X post, it's like they had
a meeting in the morning and then all of a

(01:13:52):
sudden they say, all right, guys, here we go. And
then they start going with memes. And I'm talking about
people that have thousands of followers, but all the same
means very targeted, very programmed. It's very it's it's interesting
how they they work. It's a propaganda machine obviously unless

(01:14:15):
you follow these people. I followed them, just controlled them,
and it's just constantly, like around one thirty, it just
goes on and well, I look at my phone, it's
like like dozens and dozens of X and I was like,
you know, you normally look and you're like, oh, what happens.
Something happened, and no, it's just propaganda machine. It's very interesting.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
You feel better. I'm not sure how how upset you
were by all of this.

Speaker 17 (01:14:41):
I it was just an observation, like, Okay, it wasn't
a beef, but you.

Speaker 1 (01:14:44):
Know, well, but it's what's the beef? It's not what's
the observation?

Speaker 17 (01:14:49):
I understand, I understand. Next time I'm gonna I'm wanna
call it for a.

Speaker 1 (01:14:52):
Really good I just turned it into a beef. Probably.
Thank you so much, Pedro, appreciate you calling in. Let's
go to Jennifer high jennif for your help. What's the beef?
For observation?

Speaker 10 (01:15:04):
My beef is men's health care. Women are encouraged to
get female checkups. Y're told all the dangers of this
that and the other men are not. My husband served
twenty seven years in the Marine Corps. He served two
tours in the Gulf. Nobody his doctor, the military. No
one said oh, maybe you should have your PSA levels check,

(01:15:24):
even though they knew about the burn pits. Fast forward
fifteen years, my husband keeps complaining about his back and
they say, well, you know ibuprofen. Are you know news
stretches and by the time he couldn't walked. He had
stage four metastatic prostate cancer and it was in his spine.
He lived one year when I went to check it out.

(01:15:47):
There is no mandatory test for men for their PSA levels,
and so it costs nothing. When you get your blood tested,
it's one little check of the box for the test
PSM levels. It's a marker. Yeah, it's the easiest cancer
cure for men. If you get a twue then you

(01:16:11):
need to have your doctor will put you on whatever.
My husband was over seven hundred. He lived one year.
His doctor walked in and said, you know, I don't
know why didn't have your check. I have other men.
I have theirs checked at your age. Now he's for
two tours in the Gulf. We're in a military community.
We have two military bases. How many other men are

(01:16:34):
they not checking? It is not a law, it's required
because trust me, I checked.

Speaker 1 (01:16:39):
Thank you, Jennifer. I'm sorry for the loss. I thank
you for the phone call, and hopefully it's a reminder.
Doctor Joe Camps and I discuss it every year a
few times a year, the importance of that PSA number.
But thank you very much, and again, I'm so sorry, Matt,
you're up. What's the beef.

Speaker 4 (01:16:58):
The beef is with Bay Joney Lorda that they decided
they were going to do a little experiment on parking
at the.

Speaker 5 (01:17:06):
Pier, the MV.

Speaker 4 (01:17:07):
Miller Pier, and you got to go through the steps.
Only live a mile away, but makes it easier just
to park, you know, go metal detect them be jacked duties.
You got to download the app two two dollars and
thirty cent an hour apart. We did that a couple
of times over the past month. And uh, last night

(01:17:29):
I checked my mailbox and I had two parking violations
for saying that I didn't pay the park So I
had the records to prove it from the app. So
I made the phone call and the young lady that
answered the phone says, oh, well, you'll have to call
in the morning and somebody will take your name and

(01:17:51):
get it handled. Ours computer system went haywire and everybody
got a citation.

Speaker 1 (01:17:58):
Oh my, Matt, thank you for calling. Hopefully the folks
out there in Bay County are paying attention. I know
some of them are listening, and can can kind of
help clean that up a little bit. Michael, you're the
final caller. What's the beef President? My beef is why
are the people the update on the people that are being.

Speaker 13 (01:18:19):
Killed by ATF and when are they going.

Speaker 1 (01:18:22):
To be prosecuted?

Speaker 13 (01:18:23):
Like it seems like that go justice is not being
served for these guys and we don't hear anything.

Speaker 1 (01:18:28):
It's like being slow. Yeah, there's there are a few
things that are starting to cause concern. That's one of them.
The other is Epstein. There's some issues there and it
makes you wonder, doesn't it. Yes, sir, I agree, Michael.
Thank you. Good to hear from your twenty eight past
the hour. Running a little late, wanted to make sure
we got everybody in. If you didn't get in, sorry,

(01:18:52):
call early next time because we waited for calls. Eight
five zero two zero five to BFLA is the number.
Make note that put it in your phone. We come
back to best and Worst of the week, good news
and more in the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Get
it off your mind, Get it off your chest. You

(01:19:15):
have a story you want to share, write him at
Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Welcome to the Morning Show
with Preston Scott. Best and Worst of.

Speaker 3 (01:19:35):
The week, Jose, you're up. Uh yeah, so I'll make
it quick my best for the week. Although I do
not agree with the pope or his position, I do
think it's pretty cool that he's American.

Speaker 1 (01:19:48):
So that's that's that's pretty cool.

Speaker 12 (01:19:50):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
And then the bad is my car was viciously attacked
by a deer.

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
Yeah this week, the deer's fine, but my car wish
I could say the same. And that's all for me.
My best of the week is US Postal Service music
still playing there. The food drive is tomorrow Stamp Out

(01:20:16):
Hunger food Drive. Remember the Postal Service sent my way
the notice. A lot of the food banks start running
out of food this time of year, and as the
summer comes, the kids aren't getting fed at school, and
there are people that are without, and so you could
make a difference. You participate by leaving nonperishable food donations

(01:20:36):
in a bag by your mailbox Tomorrow. Tomorrow's the day
your letter carrier will do the rest. So tomorrow's the
food drive. So that's my best of the week. My
worst of the week comes courtesy of one of the
key researchers of this radio program. Lead research assistant Rob

(01:20:59):
sent this to me, and I immediately made this my
worst of the week.

Speaker 14 (01:21:02):
The biscuit, taste the goodness up the biscuit sauce. Take
goodness up. Biscuit with the honey sauce.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
Maybe a husband and wife, maybe in their fifties, playing
at a good will. Like the way, seriously, they're in
a good way wings. This made my ears.

Speaker 14 (01:21:29):
Bleed tases of goodness of the biscuit.

Speaker 1 (01:21:35):
Take the butter spread, the butter spread.

Speaker 14 (01:21:37):
Yeah, will biscuit with the butter spread.

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
Yeah, that butterspread, boy, you can't go wrong with it.
But the biscuit, yeah, I don't.

Speaker 14 (01:21:46):
Like the way it mixes with my mac of cheese
because when you're at KFC.

Speaker 1 (01:21:53):
I kid you not, they're in a good will or something.
For my curiosity, gotta wait for the instrumental break.

Speaker 14 (01:22:00):
Here find the meal.

Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Oh what a deal man's playing his cassio. Ladies, ladies
moving her hips around on this.

Speaker 14 (01:22:11):
I could tell you you wanted to try the potato wedges.

Speaker 1 (01:22:22):
Hey, hey, m and that lead singer, boy, that's the
kind of lead singer that gets the buzzer from Simon
in thirty seconds, if not fifteen. There you go. It's

(01:22:47):
not even close. There is nothing that rivaled that for
my worst of the week. Nothing. It's just and here's
you won't undhear it. You will not be able to
hear that. You you cannot undo the damage.

Speaker 14 (01:23:07):
Taste goodness off the biscuits.

Speaker 1 (01:23:09):
Yeah, you can't. You can't. Forty minutes past the hour,
the best and worst of the week taste oh yeah.

(01:23:44):
Before we get to the good news segment, just a reminder,
we are we are securing box fans, all right, So
Panama City friends, go to the Ace Hardware store in
Bay Or Walton County near you, get yourself a box
fan and leave it with them. Tell them it's say
don't nation on behalf of WFLA and yourself to the
Bay County Council on Aging and we will distribute them.

(01:24:07):
We're collecting them in the month of May. So again,
Ace Hardware stores in Bay Or Walton County are participating.
By a box fan and leave it with them for
our drive in the Panama City area and for the
Leon County Big Bend region. We're teaming up with Westminster
Oaks and Pepsi Refreshment Services. That's the donate center at

(01:24:35):
Pepsi On thirty nine nineteen West Pensacola, and so we
would appreciate you getting a box fan and dropping it
off there, or you can bring it here to our station.
But again, we're doing it this month, so please get
a box fan or two or four or five, get
one weekly, whatever you can do, and we would greatly
appreciate it. We're trying to get three hundred and fifty

(01:24:57):
fans in each market because that's the need. So if
you can do that, that would be that would be terrific.
Now that is good news, right that we are trying
to do something again to make a difference. It doesn't
have to be a big, huge drive like we do
in the fall during giving season. We just try to
find ways to make a difference throughout the year. We

(01:25:20):
introduced you yesterday to a couple of missionaries, Chris and
Lacy Ryan, and I've got a blog up with that
interview and ways that you can take part and help
participate in what they're doing. But even that's not the
good news segment. The good news segment is interesting I
have never heard of And when I saw the picture,

(01:25:41):
I'll be honest with you, I was impressed. It's not
a bald eagle. There is something so remarkably regal about
that eagle. I've never heard of the Harpy eagle. It's
named for the crone bird hybrid of Greek mythology. It's

(01:26:05):
Latin America's largest eagle, one of the largest in the world.
It has been sighted in a rainforest in southern Mexico,
where it has been believed to be extinct. And I
mean we're talking the females weigh twenty pounds and measure

(01:26:25):
more than six feet from wingtip to wingtip. They are
in fairly big numbers in South America, but in Central
America not so much. And the fact that they've been
seeing is to me is good news. But it once
again it proves Ian Malcolm's contention in the movie Jurassic Park.

(01:26:50):
Life finds a Way. And so I'm just I marvel
at how frequently science just is wrong. And that's why
the term settled science is like the ultimate oxymoron, because science,
by its very nature is unsettled. It's the pursuit of

(01:27:15):
they're only what gravity first and second laws of thermodynamics,
I mean, is that about it? And even in gravity
there are exceptions outside obviously our gravitational forces on planet Earth,
but there are there's so little that's settled in science,

(01:27:36):
and I marvel when when science declares something extinct and
then we go, oh, we were wrong. There it is.
I just saw a bunch of dinosaurs the other day.
I watched Jurassic World Dominion. They're all over the country.

(01:27:58):
Forty six minutes past the hour, come back the dad
joke headlines for the bee still more to come? Is
this value or what? On the Morning Show with Preston Scott,

(01:28:23):
I hope you appreciate the musical subtlety of this program.
For example, this bump and the one we rotate with
it is the perfect sound to end to show. It
just says, yeah, we're done. We're just chilling Monday on

(01:28:46):
the program Style newso joins us cannot wait to get
his thoughts on what I think has been a train
wreck of a legislative session. Now he's not gonna say that.
He might think it, but he won't say that. Will
let me say that. And of course we already have

(01:29:08):
stories backing up for Monday Time For a dad joke,
This comes from Ryan, my son's math teacher said he's average.
I think he's mean. That was good, ladies and gentlemen.

Timu's shut down devastates Americans looking to buy throw pillows

immigrants one thousand and one dollars to stay in the US. Tragedy.

(01:30:39):
Local man has to go to work even though he
doesn't feel like it. Trump promises to negotiate peace in
India as soon as they take him off hold breaking.
Smoke has risen from BUCkies, indicating fresh briskets is on

Speaker 23 (01:30:58):

out loud. Just classic satire. So good. New pope has
been chosen. He's got some theological issues, doctrinal issues. Sorry

(01:32:14):
if that offends, No, I'm not. I'm not sorry. It
defends at all. Go to the Bible. You can't be
wishy wash you on certain doctrinal things like oh, I
don't know salvation. Wish him well. I pray God gets

(01:32:36):
hold of his heart and quickens him to the reality
of what the Bible actually says versus what they're allowing
thinking is okay. Covered a lot of other ground today
