I mean really, I know a name. Oh what a
way to start Friday. It's Rivalry Weekend and it's the

(00:59):
Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Take a look at its.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Inside the American Patriots Almanac for October the third, Let's
see eighteen ninety nine. John Thurman of Saint Louis Patten's
the first motor driven vacuum cleaner who's described as the
pneumatic carpet renovator vacuum cleaner's batter.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Uh, dear, would you mind getting me the pneumatic carpet renovator.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Nineteen oh four, Mary McLeod Bethune opens the Daytona literacy

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Doom Doom, Doom, Doom, Doom, doom, Doom, doo doo doom
doom doom doom doom doom. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Frank Robinson nineteen seventy four, the Cleveland Indians becomes the
first black manager in baseball's major leagues. So there you go,
this state in history. Let's see it is National Body
Language Day. Doesn't work much for me here in radio.

(02:53):
You couldn't see my body language if you tried. You
might imagine it's National Manufacturing Day, National Techies Day, and
National Boyfriend Day. You know, heterosexual you know, boys and
girls boyfriend Day.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
So we got that. And I'm sorry, but I just
in honor of rivalry weekend.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
There's a back story to this that I just don't
think I can I can share, not because it's inappropriate,
but because yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
Fierce rivals co ride Orange and Green against Red Florida
does great hate.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Sorry, it's the best I could come up with in
short notice.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
It's not red.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I know it's garned, but it was too many syllables.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
You gotta you.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Got if you gotta do haiku, it's gotta be the
five seven five, And that was just too many syllables.
All right, Today, of course, is Friday, and that means
what's the beef? Lots of things to talk about, lots

(04:40):
of stories, big stories in the press box and more
so stick around it is.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
It's stupid, is what it is. It's the Morning Show
with Breston Scott.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
I wrote on the rundown, and Jose noted, by the
way the whole, the whole rivalry thing came about, it's
we all have words that just cause us challenges. There

(05:27):
are words that just trip me up. I can look
at them. I was telling Jose maybe this week last
I don't I don't remember which. When I used to
do college basketball games or play by play of any
any whatever, I would get the list of names and
I would handwright them phonetically if they were sketchy.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
It's one of the reasons why I would never in.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
A thousand years do hockey, because it's all those Eastern
europe European names and saying them quick, which you have
to do in hockey, no chance. I would probably be
swearing in multiple languages, meaning I would accidentally just trip
up the words and I'd end up using cuts words,
probably from like the Slavic region or something. So I

(06:14):
had my ways of trying to get around that, and
I'd still mess up sometimes, but I would I would
work on. For example, the word rivalry. Rivalry is one
of those words that rye vul ree that L and
R sound back to back can be can be trouble.

(06:38):
And no matter how often Jose worked on that that
that that word was not escaping him.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
No, yeah, not at all.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
And I think it was more because the week was
after a rivalry week rivalry rivalry to rivalry, and so
I immediately, because I'm I'm a child, I immediately heard
him do that.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
And I went, oh, revelie man.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
And I know that they're and why someone would be
offended at that?

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Whatever?

Speaker 2 (07:12):
I mean, if people make fun of my accent or
my dialect, I laugh at it. If they're good, I
laugh at it. If they're bad, I just go dah,
you stink. But I don't get offended by it, So
I don't really it doesn't bother me if someone's offended
by me going whoa revaliry, It's okay. So that's where
that all came from. It just came from the the

(07:34):
newscast and just hearing, you know, the original newscast had
the word rivalry in it, and he just couldn't get
it done. He just looked at me and said, man,
I'm cutting the word.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
It's like, good call. And I said, I do that
stuff all the time. I come across the word.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
I can't get it said, and so it's just like,
I never mind, and I just detour. You know, you
just put the big signs up and you detour. But
I wrote on the rundown, go God. And he's like, ooh,
this ought to be good. Oh yeah, it's very good.
We're Can you feel the energy this morning? It's a
little residual from yesterday's show. Yesterday's show had a lot

(08:14):
of energy because of the nature of the stories and
the things we were passionately discussing. But here's the news
where I just, you know, the lead research assistant for
the program put this at the head of the link
to the story, Go God. See our research assistants are
like minded. I don't have anybody that's let alone, the

(08:38):
lead research assistant, the research assistant supervisor. We don't have
anybody in leadership that doesn't think like we do. Just
you're allowed to think like we don't we do, or
not think like we do. You're just not going to
be on the team. It's just fine. You know, that's fine.

(09:03):
Planned Parenthood's Prevention Park.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
You ever heard of it?

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Brace yourself now, seriously, brace yourself. Seventy eight thousand square
foot stair step tower, largest planned parenthood facility in the
Western Hemisphere in Houston, has closed its doors permanently.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
It is done.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
It was right close to the University of Houston and
Texas Southern University and the combination of Texas saying six
weeks is your number. And the one big beautiful bill
which strip planned Parenthood of half a billion dollars of

(09:54):
federal money. Two thirds of planned parenthood facilities are now
at the risk of closing. It boasted four hundred and
two thousand abortions in the last year. We've got data
from twenty twenty two to twenty twenty three. So far

(10:19):
at least forty one abortion killing centers have been closed.
That is the go god. Seventy eight thousand square feet
of death and dismemberment has been shut down for good.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Go God. Twenty seven minutes past the hour.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Uh huh, Yes, The Morning Joe at Preston Scott on
News Radio one hundred point seven WUFLA.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
All right, it's our first swipe at the big stories
in the press box this morning here on the Morning Show.
Do you remember when we suggested that the United States
needs to say to Mexico, either you deal with the
cartels or we'll deal with the cartels, and that, you know,

(11:30):
Mexico got its knickers in a bind all over that
that possibility of Trump sending military in there. We offered
to help, said, well, we'll we're offering to help, but
understand this, we're going to deal with it.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Well.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Trump has notified Congress of quote, an armed conflict with
the drug cartels. One or two members of Congress who
embarrassed themselves routinely angry because he didn't tell Congress. Okay,
he's declared it. He has declared cartels to be unlawful combatants.

(12:11):
United States is now in a non international armed conflict.
So far, three strikes in recent weeks, one killing eleven
members of trende A Agua Agua and perhaps you've seen
the video. I mean, like they're gonna outrun our helicopters

(12:35):
and planes and drones. I don't think so this is
going to have an effect. Now you may not know it,
but cartels have submarines. They have many submarines that they use,
and so it's on now.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Good.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I still think we need to send a message to Mexico.
I think we have to do a drone strike. I
think we had to hit a cartel headquarters somewhere in
the heartland of.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Mexico and let Mexico know.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
You either deal with it or we will because it's
coming into our country. We're stopping it. You can either
help and benefit from that or not.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
It's up to you.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
I don't know if you saw the CNN story about Memphis.
They've got a live report dude in Memphis reporting on
Trump sending people, sending the National Guard into Memphis. Highest
crime rate of big cities in America one hundred and

(13:39):
forty five murders in the first eight months of the
year in Memphis. I think Chicago's worse. I think there
may be another two or three cities worse than Memphis
on that front. But they're already getting results. But during
the live shot on CNN, Guy walks up behind the

(14:00):
reporter and says, Democrats Detroit destroyed Memphis. He holds a
sign up that's printed, I mean, he spent some money
on this thing, Democrats destroyed Memphis. And then he flips
it around and and and said thank you President Trump.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
On the other side, the reporter noted this. He didn't.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
He realized it was there. He didn't try to ignore it,
he didn't try to belittle it. He just said, there
you go, there's there's there's somebody here.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
In the city. And they made ninety three arrests already
this week.

Speaker 5 (14:39):
Now.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
I don't know if you're following what's going on in Portland.
It's nasty in Portland. And again, I don't know when
the residents are gonna say enough fire their city commission.
But the President is making a point in all of
these blue cities, and the residents are going to have

(15:03):
to figure out, okay, we're actually things are getting better.
What's happened in DC is just revolutionary. I mean, wait,
you mean if we enforce the laws, we might actually
make things safer.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
How about that?

Speaker 2 (15:17):
It's crazy, right, New Gallup poll, twenty eight percent express
a great deal or a fair amount of trust in newspapers, television,
and radio. I'll bet if you took radio out of
that equation, that number would jump into the teens.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
If you took radio out of that.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
How much do you do you have a great deal
or a fair amount of trust in newspapers in television?
I bet that numbers in the teens. I bet radio
pulls it up. It might even be below the teens.
It might be single digits. But here's what's significant. Seven
and ten adults in the United States, according to Gallups,
they do not have very much confidence or none at

(16:02):
all in the mainstream media seven out of ten flat
seventy percent. When Gallup began measuring in the nineteen seventies,
the trust factor was between sixty eight and seventy two percent.
Now it's seventy percent in the tank that they don't trust.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
At all or very little.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
Just saying forty one minutes after the hour, these are
your big stories in the press box.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Ink Show with Preston Scott, do or do not?

Speaker 4 (16:38):
There is no try on news radio one hundred point
seven doublufla.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Forty two minutes past there are a few things on
the desk. Business students at Cornell University who are not
members of marginalized or underrepresented groups have been told to
skip diversity focused recruiting events with a warning that attending
could harm their career prospects.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Excuse me.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
The directive came in an email by the Student Council
of Cornell's Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management, the
initiative allyship in Action. Students who do not identify with
the specific marginalized or underrepresented group that a diversity conference

(17:49):
is designed for should respect that space and should not attend.
May I indulge me for just to moment, friends, because
I know there may be some of you that are
still suffering from illiberalism. You've not awakened to the danger

(18:16):
and the destruction and the evil that is illiberalism. Let's
just reverse this. Students who do not identify as white,

(18:39):
the conference is designed for such people should respect that
space and should not attend.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
How's that going to go down? You think more people
would know about this story. That's just.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
That that's still going on. This is why you have
to deal with affirmative action and end it in all
its forms. That's why DEI is actually d i E.
It kills everything, it touches. Second story sitting on my desk.

(19:32):
Next year, social Security beneficiaries are going to receive a
larger cost of living adjustment than normal. Now this this
leads into all kinds of discussions on Social Security, you know,

(19:54):
getting it right, which is what Congress, Well, this is
what Trump is trying to do. Congress is trying to
you know, the Dems are trying to just make it
more difficult. See, the more you spend, the more you
expand government, the less money there is to go around
to shore up social Security and medicare. The coal of

(20:19):
two points seven percent would be roughly average from a
historical standpoint, but slightly above average, so to be slightly
higher than what is normal. And so those that are
on Social Security, every dollar counts, and it zeros back

(20:45):
to you know, it's your money, and if you want
to work a job to augment that, there should be
no restrictions on how much money you make on that job.
That's your money. Now we all know it's not your
money in the sense that your money's been spent. It's

(21:06):
been used for other people's retirement long before now, it's
a bit of a pyramid scheme. That's what social Security is.
It's literally robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Taking.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
You know, if I'm retired and I'm receiving social Security money,
I'm taking Jose's Social Security deposits and I'm paying myself
with them because mine we're used to pay for people
that my parents' age. That's what has to stop. The
only way you stop that is by stopping the fraud,

(21:44):
the abuse. You get the accounts up, and then you
work towards weaning this country off of it. Forty seven
minutes past the hour, let's come back Texas Christian University.
Huh okay, fifty three minutes past, get to the top

(22:06):
of the hour. Some news come back and talk about
what I think will be a bad decision. And I
think that the decision that was made, they'll try to
they'll try to recover from it.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
I think they'll change their mind. But we'll explain all that.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
But let me ask you, when you hear TCU, it
doesn't really resonate that it's Texas Christian University, does it?

Speaker 1 (22:49):
The TCU.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Horned frogs, the Texas Christian University horned frogs. I think
that's what they are, I think, So check me on that.
The TCU mascot, I think it's a horned frog, but
I want to focus on that middle initial Christian. I'm

(23:18):
sure that there are some people and staff members, professors
that are absolutely loving Jesus Christians. I wouldn't doubt that
at all. But I would also say that's on every campus.

(23:39):
There are some on every campus. So what's up with
the Turning Point USA chapter there scheduling Chloe Cole as
a guest speaker. Chloe Cole is the detransitioned transgender. She's
going around the warning women, young girls because she had

(24:08):
the surgery done at a young age. I'm not sure,
but she might be suing her doctors for not saying,
why didn't you just stop me? Why did you allow
this to happen to me? I was confused? So she's

(24:30):
going around the country. She's detransitioned. She doesn't have any breasts,
they were removed. Doctors mutilated her when she was a child,
when she was a young teenager. But the university Texas
Christian University canceled the event and they won't say why.

(24:55):
They don't want Chloe Cole speaking on campus. Why would
you as a Christian university, Texas Christian University, why would
you not want to have someone share that message against
a radical LGBTQ movement that's going on out there and

(25:17):
say these are the dangers this I am a I'm not.
I'm not telling you secondhand. I've experienced it. She went
to Hillsdale instead. Hillsdale welcomed her and that interesting. Hillsdale
College said, sure, it's come back with the second hour.

(25:40):
It's Friday. What's the beef in the third hour, But
we've got our number two next in the Morning show.

(26:04):
Second hour of the Morning Show with Thrustin Scott. How
are you Happy Friday? To you Ruminators. It is FSU
Miami Weekend. It's interesting because we have a two day
extravaganza of football and football. Football is tonight at the

(26:30):
Soccer Complex as the highly ranked frequent national champion Florida
State Seminals take on Miami in women's soccer at the
Soccer Complex at seven o'clock. It will be packed. It
will be packed. They've got to figure out a way

(26:51):
to add more seating. They got They've just got to
They gotta find a way they can put seating along
that sidewalk. I'm convinced that is stadium. They can do it.
Add a little bit more there on the ends, make
it enclosed stadium. Kind of feel that would be so sick.

(27:11):
FSU will beat Miami tonight in soccer now I believe that.
And then tomorrow night, ninety four nine TNT broadcast starts
at five point thirty eastern, four thirty central on ninety
four five The Rock in Panama.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
City, Miami.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
FSU Miami ranked number three in some polls, FSU top
twenty after the loss to Virginia. I'm not sweating the
loss of Virginia. They showed a little character, a little heart.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
You get better.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
A loss doesn't end anything in the new day and
age of the college football playoff. Florida State will win
tomorrow night. Florida State will win tomorrow night. Yes, yes,
they will win. I'm just gonna tell you right now,
they will win. Am I a homer? Of course I am. Yes.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
I am pulling garnet and gold all the time.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
On the subject of football. Here is the decision that
I believe will be changed before the Super Bowl. I
believe the NFL is going to cancel bad Bunny. I
have no inside knowledge. I am of the opinion that

(28:45):
the NFL still suffering some now there. Look it's the NFL.
It's popular, but their fan base is right of center.

(29:06):
The choice of Bad Bunny was explained by and I
know some of you are doing what jose just did
laughing because, let's face it, what a stupid name it is.
It's just dumb. The headline of Deadline, which is a

(29:31):
Hollywood website, Ice agents to harass Bad Bunny's super Bowl
halftime show. Ex top Trump aid promises quote, we will
put you in a detention facility and we will deport you.
The writer a guy named Dominic Patton. He's one of

(29:55):
those elitists out there. Never one is to try, not
to not try to ruin in a good time. Donald
Trump's Department of Homeland Security plans to swarm Bad Buddy
super Bowl halftime performance. Good taking a page out of
the Preston R. Scott plan for how you deal with

(30:17):
illegal immigrants. You show up at soccer games featuring Mexico
played in the US, bring the buses. I'm telling you
right now, if you said ICE will be outside the
stadium when the Mexican national soccer team plays the attendance
would be cut in half. I guarantee it. I guarantee it.

(30:42):
But here's why, you know, I want to get to
why the NFL, why they're doing this, and why it's
so stupid, and why why bad Bunny, besides having a
ridiculous name, needs not be a par former for the NFL.

(31:04):
We'll get to that next ten minutes past the hour,
All right, eleven past.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Why would the NFL.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
Employ the services of a guy who first pledged to
not tour the United States because of concerns that DHS
and massed agents of quote now bleeping f word, bleeping
ice would target fans at his shows. It's so shameful

(32:02):
they've decided to pick somebody who seems to hate America
so much to represent them at a half at halftime
of the game.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
The writer writes in his article.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
Of course, if by hating America one means selling and
streaming boatloads of albums and tunes, how friends friends, So
the counter for the for the f Ice comments is

(32:38):
that he shows his love for America by making millions
and millions of dollars selling his records.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Here, that's what you got.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
No, really, this is this is emblematic of the liberal
left's response to this stuff. What do you mean he
hates America? Look at all the records he sells, he
goes to WWE match, he was in a movie with
Adam Sandler, He's.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Been on Netflix. What what does that have to do?
What does that have to do with anything.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
He's making fun of America by selling all of his
stuff and making money off this country, and he hates it.
The NFL didn't respond to Deadline for a request for comment.
He will be fronting for Saturday Night Live this weekend,
the premiere of the new season of the Unfunny Saturday

(33:39):
Night Live. Now, some of you go, no, it's gotten funnier.
I wouldn't know, and I don't care. It's not on
my radar anymore. Used to be back in the day
when it was funny, it was reliably funny. But let's
circle back to the whole NFL thing.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
What are they thinking? That's what I hope you do.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
If he survives this, and by surviving meaning and he
does perform as opposed to being canceled, because I think
the NFL will change their mind. I think they will
step back and look at the pushback they're going to
get from people, and rightly, people should be sending emails
and making calls to the NFL saying, hey, you put

(34:24):
this guy on, I'm boycott in your halftime show. I
don't care who's playing in the game, doesn't matter. I
will not be watching the halftime show. And I think
that the answer is just tune out if he's on.
If he's doing it, make your lunch, you know, spruce
up the appetizers, you know, fluff the the the ordure

(34:48):
tray a little bit, freshen it up, add some new things,
do something else with your halftime don't watch that. And
the messenger, the message to the advertisers is going to
be we're not watching it, just not gonna watch it.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Why would you? Why would you watch this?

Speaker 2 (35:05):
And once again the NFL, as explained by Jerome Hudson,
you know, they've got people on their board that selects
this stuff. They are they don't care. They just they
want the biggest, broadest audience. And this is about getting
impact in the Latin American community. I don't care who

(35:25):
it is, I don't care what nation it is. They're
thumbing there. The NFL is flipping you a bird. If
you believe in uh in in the rule of law
and legal immigration. So anyway, sixteen past, come back, tell
you what's going on in Disney.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Might be time to discover Disney all over again. It's
fund the morning chow, taking your codes. Do what's the beef?

(36:06):
I don't know what's best.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
I could do twenty one minutes past the hour and yeah,
we've got what's the beef coming up next hour?

Speaker 1 (36:12):
Big stories in the press box in just a little bit.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
I'm not I'm just I'm accepting there there are certain realities.
One is that for a lot of people, the opportunity
to go bring the kiddos to a Disney park is
a fun time.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
And I get that. I enjoy going to Disney parks.
I do.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
They're they're clean, they're incredibly well manicured. The grounds are beautiful,
especially Christmas time. It's just beautiful.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
It just is.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
But right now, according to some it's ghost town, as
in these are some people that are posting I'm at
the Magic Kingdom right now. This place is a tomb
another one. There's literally nobody here. There's no waiting time
for anything. Space Mountain, walk On, Haunted Mansion, walk On,

(37:05):
Pirates of the Caribbean, walk on the longest I've even
seen a wait time for is thirty minutes. Right now
through mid September, Crowdtracker says the average weight time is
twenty four minutes per ride. Average I mean twenty four minutes.

(37:27):
You're pretty much getting on everything you want if you
want to do that, and maybe more than once. Now,
even though visitors are describing as a ghost town, Disney says, no, no, Now.
What we've done is that the lines are moving faster
because Disney adjusted how many guests enter via the lightning lane,

(37:51):
which frees up capacity for the regular guests, otherwise known.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
As fast pass.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
I don't know how they do it now, but back
in the day, Universal had a fast pass. If you
stayed on property, one of the Universal properties that was
right there, we'd take a boat ride to the Universal
theme parks.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
You would get the fast passes as well.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
So you buy your tickets, stay in the property, and
as a bonus, you would get the fast passes.

Speaker 5 (38:22):
Now.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
I don't know if they're doing that, but fast passes
were brilliant.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
It's like you look at everybody in the regular line
going sorry, and that was a good time. Traditionally, empty day,
empty weeks after Labor Day, Disney rolls out pretty aggressive deals.

(38:45):
They will sometimes do an eighty nine dollars per day
three park ticket. Now that'll exclude the Magic Kingdom, and
I'm like, I'm all for that. I'm not into the
Magic Kingdom now if I had the grand babies with
me and they were old enough to enjoy it. Like,
I know, people have different ideas on this. I don't
believe in bringing kid littles to the to the theme

(39:08):
parks until they're old enough to remember it and experience it. Like,
if they're going to get dinged and not be able
to go on a ride because they're too little, what's
the point of spending that money on that. So I'm like,
I'm more of a bring them at seven, eight, nine,
maybe six maybe, But when they're younger than that, it's like,

(39:33):
what are they going to remember? I mean, they'll remember
it for a few weeks when they're that, but but
that's about it. They won't really have recall of it
until they're older and able to enjoy it. But that's
just sort of a in case you know that's something
you're interested in. Is there a set of theme parks

(39:53):
that you have been to that you enjoy.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
Universal Studio. I went once that was pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (40:03):
I didn't now was it before Islands of Adventure?

Speaker 1 (40:07):
I believe so I was. I was real.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
I was really young, Okay, because I'm a huge Universal fan.
If I had to choose, I'd pick Universal over over Disney,
and I would really I would. I think I would
enjoy going back and seeing not just Universal, but Islands

(40:31):
of Adventure and now Epic Universe. I will tell you
I'm not a big ride guy. I'll go on some,
but the roller coasters uh huh. I just there's I
have to be really careful now. I've never been a
roller coaster guy, but especially now because for reasons that

(40:55):
you know, we've not been able to determine. I have
occasionally had to fight off furtigo and and we have.
There's no there's nothing that triggers it in particular. It
just it happens, and has happened to me maybe three
or four times in the last twenty plus years. But
when it happens, I go hypothermic. My body temperature drops.

(41:20):
The lowest I've ever been was ninety three degrees and
that was I won't tell you how they took that temperature.
How about that? Does that tell you how they took
my temperature Because they didn't believe the digital the reading.
They're like, it says ninety three. That can't be right.
And so they tried it again, tried it again, and
they went, Okay, we got to do this differently, and
they went somewhere else and it was I, oh.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
Man, did I scream.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
Let's just say the combination of not being prepared and
maybe missing the mark added up to massive pain. But
I was ninety three. Now since then, I have learned
a technique that helps me stop the onset of a
vertigo attack, and I've managed to do that once, so

(42:08):
I haven't had one in a number of years, and
so that's good. But my point in all of that
is I avoid the big jostling roller coasters because yeah,
I don't want to trigger that in me. So I'm
very particular about the stuff that I go on. But
I love being there the environment of whether it's Universal

(42:29):
or Disney, just being in that environment, I love it.
I just it makes me happy. So anyway, twenty eight
minutes after the hour, let's do the big stories in
the press box, and then we start getting you ready
for what's the beef? Thanks for joining us. It's the
Morning Show with Preston Scott. Let's jump on the way

(42:58):
back machine here, big story in the press box. Time
on the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 6 (43:03):
And.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
Let's get back to why people.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
One of the big stories is the Gallup polls showing
trusted media at a new low of twenty eight percent.
And that number is I think high because the number
includes no really, it includes radio.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
And if you remove radio, because.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
There there is virtually no liberal radio out there, it
doesn't work. It doesn't get supported by advertisers. Hence, are
there liberal talk show hosts? Sure, and there are some
that are pretty good. Mike Gallagher's decent. He's not, but
he's a radio guy. Air America tried to take celebrities
that were liberals and put them on the radio, and

(43:44):
it didn't work because they're not radio people. There is
a specific skill set to do radio. And just because
you're a comedian or you're an actor, or you're a
politician or what have you, doesn't mean you can do radio.
There are all kinds of things I can't do. That's
not my calling. I'm not good at it. Someone say
I'm not good at this, but this is what I do.

(44:07):
But let's illustrate. I want to use this as an illustration.
At the core of the government shutdown right now is
the issue of illegal immigration, them getting money for healthcare.
I'm not gonna waste my time trying to argue that point.
It's been made over and over again. That's the core
of what they're dealing with. They play semantical games by

(44:31):
considering them Americans. They're not Americans, and it's the same
type of game. It's intellectual dishonesty where they talk about
immigration and illegal immigration as one thing. It's not one thing.
Immigration is legal immigration. Illegal immigration is separate, and they
conflate the two, they merge them together.

Speaker 1 (44:51):
But I want to illustrate the point.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
The mainstream media, if it were honest, it would be
going into its own archives. And for Democrats when they
do these interviews the following, because the tape doesn't lie,
you'll recognize the voices, and it's an example of why

(45:17):
people don't trust the media. It's it's as easy as
them deciding that they're going to do something about this
particular issue, and it's just reminding Democrats of what they
said and it's simple.

Speaker 7 (45:38):
And the budget I will present to you we will
try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal
aliens who a arrested for crimes.

Speaker 8 (45:45):
Senator Biden, Yes or no?

Speaker 2 (45:47):
Would you allow the cities to ignore the federal law?

Speaker 5 (45:49):
No?

Speaker 1 (45:50):
I think we got to have tough conditions.

Speaker 9 (45:52):
Tell people to come out of the shadows if they've
committed a crime, to port them, no questions asked.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
Undocumented workers broke are immigration laws, and I believe that
they must be held accountable, especially those who may be dangerous.
What do you This is what the mainstream media should
be doing, and honest media holds the mirror up to Republicans, Democrats, independents,

(46:20):
to America and reflects what it is, whatever it is.
It's not the media's job to selectively have amnesia when
it's convenient.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
They should be going through all of their own.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Archives and playing this stuff back for Democrats right now,
right now, and ask what's happened to the Democrat Party.
This is why the Gallup poll shows trust as low
as it is, and it's in reality far lower. It's

(46:58):
being artificially have to float by people like me. No, Seriously,
across the country, there are people like me doing radio
programs presenting balance to what is offered by the mainstream media.
And that is why there is some trust in the
mainstream media, because we're considered by many the media forty

(47:19):
minutes past the hour. There you go, simple as that,
You're welcome. Thus endeth the lesson. Uncle Ci is in

(47:50):
the hospital. It's got a severe sinus infection. But siless
Uncle cy Robertson, he is he'll be all right. A
little trouble with a little, uh little sinus infection, but
it's gonna be all right. Posting stuff making people laugh

(48:13):
as always. It's funny guy, just naturally funny, Miss Phil,
Miss Phil Robertson, no nonsense, unapologetic sharer of the gospel.
Talk about a guy that was living for the devil
and got saved and then became public enemy number one

(48:34):
for old Bealz bubb Satan hated him, hated him. I
wrote in the rundown exactly what the lead research assistant
sent me, what's wrong with people? Only I wrote what's
wrong with some people. Now we know what's wrong with people.

(48:58):
I'll give you a hand. Starts with an ass ends
with an, and I.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Is the middle it's sand.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
Big twelve Conference college football. Colorado played Brigham Young University,
and members of the student section decided to chant f
the Mormons, bleep the Mormons, yeah, and b YU had

(49:37):
the ultimate last laugh, beating Colorado twenty four to twenty one.
But that's not the point, now, is it. Deon Sanders apologize.
That's not indicative of who we are, our student body.
Our kids are phenomenals, so don't indict us just based
a group on a group of young kids that probably
were intoxicated in high simultaneously. Maybe I shouldn't have said

(49:59):
that as well, But the truth is going to make
you free. But BYU, we love you, we appreciate you,
we support you. Big twelve Conference didn't have much to
say about it other than you owe us fifty thousand
dollars for for the hateful, discriminatory language has no home
in the Big twelve Conference. Well, we appreciate Colorado apologizing

(50:21):
for the chance that occurred in the stands during Saturday's game.
The Big twelve maintains zero tolerance for such behavior. That's fine,
go get them. But let's go back to what my
lead research assistant asked, what's wrong with people? You know

(50:43):
this gets back to and let me give you a
little some help because I can hear it coming. And
just see if this plays out. Let's see if the
student body at Florida State University will catch wind of
what I say here, because there's some listening, not many,

(51:05):
but some will they catch wind of the fact that
when Florida State beats Miami this weekend and it's the
fourth quarter and the student section starts saying overrated, you
do realize you're demeaning your win. If you say the

(51:34):
team that you're beating is overrated, then you're saying that
your win is.

Speaker 1 (51:39):
Not that big a deal.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
And so while that chant is just stupid, and I
fear that's what could come.

Speaker 1 (51:55):
When FSU beats Miami, and I think they will.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
You'll start hearing over rated, and if you do, you'll
go He said it, Preston said that was gonna happen,
And just think about it.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
It's stupid.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
You've just you've just said that your victory in that
big a deal. It doesn't mean very much because that
team wasn't as good as everyone thought. No, Miami's a
very good football team. And truth be told, even though
some fans of Miami are obnoxious to a core. There
are obnoxious fans that are FSU fans. They are obnoxious

(52:37):
fans that are Florida fans. They are obnoxious fans that
are Alabama fans. They're obnoxious fans that are Georgia fans.
Obnoxious fans exist everywhere. Okay, Now, the fact that there
just seemed to be a few more Miami fans that
are obnoxious, you know, let's just set that aside for
a second. We all have ours, right, But I think
it's important to point out that when that cheer comes out,

(53:04):
you've just said your win doesn't register as much.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
Just saying something to think about. I don't get it.
What do you think? Come on, think, come on, people
don't cheer that we are better. Hey, yeah, that'll work
something like that.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
But then again, I'm the guy that spent literally an
entire football season begging the Marching Chiefs to change the
Florida state Florida State, Florida state.

Speaker 1 (53:38):
Woo to Florida State, Florida State, Florida state.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
Forty eight minutes past the hour, what's the beef Friday
coming up? In mere moments, I read your notes, I
respond to as many as I can got a note

(54:10):
from a listener. I'll leave the name out of it.
He wrote, it seems during the last few days during
your show. By the way, this is my effort to
cut off a beef. It seems that for the last
few days during your show, I have heard spots on
WFLA from George Soros's move on dot org with not

(54:35):
surprising misleading information and concluding that with a patent lie
that quote storms are only getting worse. Shame on WFLA
for airing such deceptive bias trash. Very disappointed, and then
he dropped a Gomer pile.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
Shame, shame, shame.

Speaker 2 (54:53):
That was it now, obviously, I replied, I wrote back,
and and perhaps many of you are feeling the same way.
You need to understand a few things, and I'll try
to put some perspective on this. And I shared this example.

(55:17):
I'm not a big fan of pepsi. Now I like
wild cherry pepsi, Okay, but I'm not a huge fan
of pepsi. But guess what pepsi can advertise on this show.
There are scientists, though corrupted and bought with money, that
believe and pedal the lie of global warming.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
They are scientists. They are climatologists. Move on dot org.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
If it wants to spend money with us, Okay, I'll
take their money. I won't take money of an abortion
clinic or an abortionist. And I have proven that in
my lifetime. By the way, client that I later found
out was an abortionist, I did not know that. It
was not disclosed to me. A listener told me, did

(56:05):
you know that this particular person does this? I did
not know that. I dropped him as a client. I'm
not accepting blood money. But unless it's porn or something
like that, if someone wants to buy advertising, by law,
they're allowed to buy advertising. And I'll just finalize with this.

(56:25):
Bible says the wealth of the wickeds stored up for
the righteous. Yeah, I'll take their money. I'll use it
for good things. It's what's to be Friday? Eight five
zero two zero five WFLA eight five zero two zero
five ninety three fifty two. Get it off your chest? Friends,
two lines are open. Call me, now, well, let's do it.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
What do you say?

Speaker 2 (57:04):
It's Friday, Ruminators, It's time to get it off your chest.
We call it what's the Beef? On the Morning Show
with Threston Scott. He's Jose's taking your calls eight five
zero two zero five to WFLA. The lines are busy
right now, so as we cycle through a caller, just
give it a try, and we'd love to have you
on the radio program to get off of off of
your chest whatever it is that's bothering you. Two rules,

(57:29):
no profanity and don't make it personal. With that said,
we go right to the phone lines. I'd love to
fit as many of you on the air as possible. Joel,
thanks for calling in. You are up.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
What's the beef.

Speaker 6 (57:40):
Good Morning presson Morning pressent. My beef. My beef is
that Darryl Jones is still on the school board after
the horrible things he said about Charlie Kirk. Yeah. I
think that disqualifies him from being on the school board.
Bad sign to our students. That kind of behavior is
a step and shows he has a black heart and

(58:02):
doesn't need to be there.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
Tell me this, what would you say to the other
school board members who may be listening right now.

Speaker 6 (58:10):
I'd say he needs to be disqualified and it needs
to be it needs to be done quickly. If you
if you start heeing and hawn and and and providing
excuses than you are, you're you're, you're part of the problem. UH.
This kind of this kind of behavior needs, doesn't need
to be tolerated at all.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Needs UH needs the light shine on it. And that's
what we're missing right now. No one else on the
school board will say anything or do anything. The superintendent
won't either.

Speaker 6 (58:38):
I think the people are upset about it. I've I've
heard I've heard many people talk about it this weekend.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
Joel, thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
I know that there is at least one member of
the school board that's listening, and I hope that that
that school board member does the right thing and summons
the moral courage to do something about it. That frees
up a line eight five zero two zero five to
b F l A. If you want it, it's yours,
but you got to call now.

Speaker 1 (59:02):
Lee. Thanks for calling in. You're up. What's the beef?

Speaker 10 (59:06):
Hey, Preston, I want to agree with everything you said
about college football a little while ago. At FSU, there
are no ranked opponents left on the schedule after Miami,
so I want I like FSU, I want them to win.
I am a lifelong Alabama fan because I grew up
over there. I been here since two thousand and six,

(59:28):
and I always like to see FSU do well. With
that said, I didn't get to call in after the
Bama game, but I'm going to say it now. The
FSU fans, especially the student body that I was near
during the game, were the worst I've ever seen student
fans behaved. There were horrible things being said to Alabama

(59:52):
fans everywhere, incests, things like that, and I just want
to remind these guys, these dirty birds coming up in
South Florida are not well behaved like Alabama fans. These
guys will cut your staff, you beat you up, and
let's just hope nobody gets seriously hurt this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
Hey tell me this, and I mean this sincerely. Are
the fans that you encountered at FSU or overhurt. They're
worse than Auburn fans when you guys are battling it out.

Speaker 5 (01:00:23):
Yeah yeah, Olmer.

Speaker 10 (01:00:26):
Alburn fans are actually better Christians than I think most
Alabama fans. Okay, and even at the Iron Bowl. I've
never been to a football game anywhere that was as
bad mouth as our first game here this year.

Speaker 8 (01:00:45):
Okay, and it was it was.

Speaker 10 (01:00:47):
It was pretty bad.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
It doesn't surprise me. Lee, Thanks very much. I appreciate
you calling in that. We've got lines open eight five
zero two zero five w f LA. Michael George, you're
gonna be next when we come back. What do you
want to complain about? It's fair game. Just just keep it,
keep it on the rails, don't monologue, don't get off track,

(01:01:15):
don't compliment me.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
Find a way to turn the compliment into a beef.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
For example, if you wanted to say something nice about
the radio program, here's what you do. My complaint isn't
is that every other radio program isn't as good as yours.
See that's a backhanded way to get it done. Now, Really,
whatever you want to complain about, Michael George, you're next.

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
It's ten past the hour. It's the Morning Show with
Preston Scott.

Speaker 4 (01:01:48):
Come to m a d radio network where we challenge
you to make a difference, And this is the Morning
Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (01:02:00):
Yeah, there are embarrassing fans at all schools. I've also
embarrassed a withy co Ed's dress.

Speaker 6 (01:02:06):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
Come on, your mama and your daddy and your papa,
and here Mimi might see you on TV and be
just embarrassed by how you dressed. It's eight five zero
two zero five b b FLA. Michael, thanks for hanging
in there.

Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
What's the beef?

Speaker 11 (01:02:22):
More impressed? And my beef is with the shutdown And
I'm so sick of who doom and gloom And if
you ask the average person on the street, has your
life changed at all in the past forty hours? No, no, okay,
And I have a beef towards President Trump as he's like, well,
I can cut that. I cut all these federal jobs.

Speaker 8 (01:02:43):
Cut them, cut them, cut about five.

Speaker 11 (01:02:45):
Hundred thousand of them, and get rid of them. But
then you have the lib tar demon rats. Oh we're
gonna sue, We're gonna tie this up in court. It
shouldn't be allowed. He is the chief executive of the
executive branch. And if he says you ain't got a job,
you ain't got a job. Hit the bricks.

Speaker 1 (01:03:03):
Thank you, Michael, great you as well, sir.

Speaker 2 (01:03:06):
Now, I think there's a way to do it that
makes sense, that allows people the opportunity to get find
other work. And I think we're doing that in a
lot of areas of the federal government. But in general
I completely agree on Let's.

Speaker 1 (01:03:21):
Go to George. Hi, George, good morning, welcome, thanks for calling,
you're on the air.

Speaker 5 (01:03:26):
Good morning Pressed. And my beef is with the NFL
and Roger Goodell. I'm just counting the days until uh,
you know, the owners love him because the teams have
scoutrocketed in value and the TV contracts. But I think
they need to get rid of him and put Peyton
Manning in as a is a commissioner of the NFL. Okay,

(01:03:47):
this this deal with the bad bunny, the stupid name idiot.

Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
Hey Matt, what do you what do you mean by that? Hey, homie,
come on.

Speaker 5 (01:03:55):
Now, yeah, yeah, if that goes through, if they actually
do that that, I'm done with the NFL. It's it's
it's a grooming on a national, worldwide basis because he's
going to come out there, dress like a woman and
all his you know, his regalia, probably going to kiss

(01:04:18):
another man, which he's done. And then we'll have to
explain to kids about this. Get the the NFL is
giving the fan their ninety percent of their fan base
the middle finger, and and and the other thing is
is it is wrong spiritually Preston. It goes against Christian values,

(01:04:43):
it's wrong spiritually, and it is a full sized, you know,
grooming activity going to be viewed all over the world,
and and it's just I'm done with it if it
goes through.

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
All right, George, thanks very much. Let me get to
another caller here. John, you're up, what's the beef?

Speaker 12 (01:05:03):
Hy, Good morning pression.

Speaker 6 (01:05:04):
Thank you for what you do.

Speaker 12 (01:05:05):
My beef is with the women who vote. And before
everybody goes appoplectic, I just point out that when they
got their right to vote, the first thing they'd done
was voted in prohibition, and looking at the chaos that
caught cost women need to concentrate on the three bees,
making babies, making biscuits, and behaving like a lady. Now,
young men need to behave Get off your butt, quit

(01:05:28):
watching porn. Oh, get a job, and get out of
your folks house. Quick running My day, y'all, have a
good weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
Thank you job. I love what's the beef? You never
know what you're gonna hear. Dean, you're up, what's the beef?

Speaker 12 (01:05:44):
Hey?

Speaker 13 (01:05:44):
Good morning pressing. Hey, it's it's I appreciate what you do.
I appreciate it and it's men listening for you long time.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
But thank you.

Speaker 13 (01:05:53):
I just want to say that. Into the gloating that
they did, like underrated and all that kind of stuff,
it's not good sportsmanship, right, That's that's just what I
wanted to say.

Speaker 1 (01:06:06):
Thank you. I appreciate it, Dean.

Speaker 2 (01:06:08):
Yeah, absolutely think about what you say, Dean, thank you,
And it's and the cheer is overrated that they bestow
on a team that isn't isn't isn't winning the game
that people perceive that. For example, Miami is going to
be the favorite. I think they are the favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:06:27):
But.

Speaker 2 (01:06:29):
I think Florida State will win this game. But we'll see.
That's why they play the game.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
All right.

Speaker 2 (01:06:37):
We've got Michael standing by another Michael, and then we
have one, two, three lines open. I don't expect to
see that when I come back from my break.

Speaker 1 (01:06:51):
I expect to see the Lions.

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
Oh what do you want to complain about? Get it
off your chest. It's eight five zero two zero five WFLA.

Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Twenty one Past Floyd Show with Preston Scott. Michael. I
know you'll understand.

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
I'm letting Sam cut in line because Sam's a young man.
And when we got youngsters listening to the program. I
encourage that. So, Sam, you're up. What do you have
for me? What's the beef camefestion?

Speaker 14 (01:07:31):
Me and my mom listen to you every day on
the way to school.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Thank you, and the beef is.

Speaker 14 (01:07:37):
Where I live, there's like because Hurricane Michael came and
destroyed like all these buildings and areas and they're like
just sitting there when they can be for good use
like stores or schools and stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:51):
So where you are living in that area, there are
a lot of usable buildings that are sitting destroyed, okay,
So so they just need a little love, huh.

Speaker 14 (01:08:04):
Got some stuff were like just like not like they're
just sitting there. They look like they are used the
like they're just not being used.

Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
So the there's a shell of a building still there
that could be repaired.

Speaker 14 (01:08:21):
A grocery outlet, okay, is like destroyed and it looks
like they might be rebuilding it or something.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
What what area are we talking about, Sam, give me
kind of the the neighborhood or the city nearby.

Speaker 14 (01:08:38):
Me and my mom lives in Panama City Beach in Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
Gotcha fair enough? Sam? Thank you?

Speaker 2 (01:08:43):
I appreciate you calling in. Thanks for listening to the program.
Have a great day at school. Okay, yes, thank you.
See that's that's why we let we let youngsters cut
in line, because I want to encourage kids like Sam.

Speaker 1 (01:08:56):
We're listening to the program.

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
Sam, well done, well spoken, very articulate young man. Michael,
thanks for calling in.

Speaker 15 (01:09:04):
What's the beef the person that thank you and then
also thank you to Sam. My beef is with the
liberals that are protesting the ICE detentions. Apparently not only
do they know what they're doing there, apparently do not
know how to drive either. And my advisor to them
is before they get out of their codey, you put
it in the pocket before they go put that that's

(01:09:24):
my beef's pressing.

Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
Thank you, Michael. For those of you don't know what
he's talking about.

Speaker 2 (01:09:32):
A protester showed up at an upset at an ICE agent.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
Arresting an illegal immigrant.

Speaker 2 (01:09:39):
She jumped out of her car, not putting it in park,
and with the car still running, she jumps out of
her car to get mad and to scream at the
officers while her car just drifted off into a lake
and sunk.

Speaker 1 (01:09:54):
It was beautiful. It was absolutely beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
I cannot wait to find out how she explained that
to the insurance company.

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
Well, but I.

Speaker 2 (01:10:06):
Too, funny. Thanks for the phone call. Let's go to Tim, Tim,
second of the last caller.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
Here, you're up. What's the beef?

Speaker 7 (01:10:14):
Good morning. My beef is with the grocery stores here
in Tallahassee. I'm trying to eat healthy and I would
like to use whole wheat bread crumbs, and no store
carries them, and you can't get them through special order.
It just drives me crazy. Usually I go to Tampa
to see my children and I stock up fall them

(01:10:35):
down there to bring back. But yesterday I needed some
to make a dish and I could not find them
at any store in Tallahassee.

Speaker 1 (01:10:43):
So if if if.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
You go to a public's and you talk to the manager,
the grocery manager, they can't order it for you.

Speaker 7 (01:10:55):
That's another whole beef. The special order, well we're not
supposed to name them, but anyway, their special order. I've
given up. I've tried so many times to special order
stuff and I think I've had success one time.

Speaker 1 (01:11:08):
Okay, so have you got you?

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
Have you gone Amazon Route Amazon dot com?

Speaker 7 (01:11:16):
I do sometimes I haven't for that, but usually their
food items are way overpriced.

Speaker 2 (01:11:22):
Well you might check out Whole Foods and see what
they can do because they are affiliated with Amazon.

Speaker 7 (01:11:28):
And yeah, no, I've gone through there. Okay, their stuff too,
they don't have them either.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
How about that?

Speaker 2 (01:11:36):
Tim, Thanks for calling in. Hopefully we'll find a solution
for that. But at least you have one. Right you
go see the family down in Tampa.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
Larry, you are the final caller. What's the beef?

Speaker 8 (01:11:49):
How are you doing, Preston good? I just want to
talk about Colorado. I went out to Colorado in two
thousand and seven when we played them out there, and
that the worst fan base I've ever been. That is
a liberal hell hole. Their students have been like that.
They're just they're just liberal. It's unbelievable. I've never been

(01:12:11):
treated worse than in Boulder, and I've been to Gainesville, Miami, Auburn,
all the places, and never have I seen a fan
base like that.

Speaker 6 (01:12:22):
That's all I have to.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
Say, Thank you very much, appreciate the phone call. Yeah,
it's so interesting because I've not found a fan base
that can claim the high ground, with the exception of
one Oral Roberts University, but there may be an exception

(01:12:51):
of that one too. Friends, Thanks for calling in. When
we come back, Mary Rock will join us from Esposito
Gardens Center. From the ground up, We're gonna help you
with your porch scaping. Uh huh, porch scaping. Next on
the Morning Show with Preston Scott, did that music just

(01:13:28):
scream fall, harvest, cooler weather?

Speaker 1 (01:13:34):
He dad does.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
Welcome friends from the ground up, brought to you by
Esposito Nurseries and Esposito Garden Center. Mary Rock, general manager,
joins us. Mary, just to be clear, a porch is
at the front of the house, right, not necessarily?

Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
Okay too, Really, I've always thought the back was the
around porch.

Speaker 9 (01:14:02):
You could call it that, but you know I call
my back porch to porch.

Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
Okay, fair enough.

Speaker 9 (01:14:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:14:08):
So, I mean the calendar finally says it's officially fall,
but I think for a lot of us, once it
gets to September, we sort of start thinking that way.
What are some things that can help make it feel
a little bit more like fall in our in and
around our house.

Speaker 9 (01:14:25):
Well, the addition of you know, the fall staples. You've
got scarecrows, pumpkins, Hey, you're Halloween decorations. Porch scaping is
something that we promote and we do. We actually have
clients that we go in and we decorate their porches
seasonally and fall is one of the biggest times that
we do that. Okay, yeah, so you know, the addition

(01:14:49):
of plants, foliage, pumpkins and hay, A lot of people
don't know how to how to you know, how to
make it work, how to balance it. So we do
offer that serve and it's all that stuff makes you feel,
you know, you know that the holidays are coming. The
next step is Christmas, so you know, starting with fall,

(01:15:09):
it gives you that warm, cozy feeling when you come
home to your front porch and it's it's all decorated
and nice. You know, it gives you that, yeah, that
warm fuzzy feeling.

Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
If I'm channeling my inner Joanna Gaines or Aaron Napier,
I'm thinking that the key to the decore side of
this is to not necessarily overdo it with any one
particular thing.

Speaker 1 (01:15:35):
Is that fair?

Speaker 9 (01:15:37):
You would be absolutely correct, preston and balances everything, and
you know, you don't want to overdo it. You don't
want to put all the decorations on your front porch.
You want to be able to edit and make it clean,
pretty simple and few flowers. You know, it's just not
overdoing it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:55):
What we are going to do the biggest favor in
the world if if you can unlock the secret to
caring for mums through this season. How what does overwatering
look like? What does underwatering look like? And do you
deadhead mums? Do you do you cut after the blooms
have had their moment? Do you cut them? Do you

(01:16:18):
pick them? Do you pinch them?

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
What do you do?

Speaker 9 (01:16:22):
Everybody has their own way of doing it, but yes,
cut them back after they're done blooming. I like to
pinch them off. It's just it relaxes me for some reason.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
It's therapy for you.

Speaker 9 (01:16:37):
Yeah, therapy. Watering them. A lot of folks will buy them,
buy mums, and they'll come in those plastic sleeves. You
want to make sure to take that off. We see
it all the time. People bring in their mom and
they'll have the plastic sleeve and and it's it's all
withered and sad look. And it's because it drowned. You know,
you water it and all that water collects in that

(01:16:57):
plastic sleeve, and they don't like to have wet feet,
so you know, you want to make sure that they
get plenty of water, but you don't want to overwater them.
You know, water them, let the water bleed through a
couple of days later, checked back to see if it
needs more. And when you're watering, try to try to
water at the surface of the soil, not necessarily on

(01:17:18):
the on the blooms.

Speaker 2 (01:17:19):
And at the surface of the soil. And do we
want to have the soil completely dry? Do we go
down deep to check it or do we want it
to have some moisture when we water it again?

Speaker 9 (01:17:32):
A little moisture. You want to definitely make sure that
it's not stopping wet at the bottom, you know, and
if you if you check it, you know, you don't
you want to stick your fingers pretty far down in
the pot to see if it you know, if it's
still moisture or not, and you don't the mistake. We
see a lot of people let it completely dry out, yeah,

(01:17:53):
to the point where the you know, the flowers are
starting to shrivel in the months. They don't like that.
They don't recover well, do you Your recovery is not pretty.

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
Do you need to feed them?

Speaker 9 (01:18:03):
You can feed them absolutely. Typically mums that come in
that are in bloom they've been fed. If you're planning
them in the ground or in a pot, we do
recommend you plant them with biotone by a Spoma. It's
a fantastic fertilizer. It'll get them rooted in really well,
and they should be good until next spring, and sometimes

(01:18:24):
you'll get you'll have them bloom in the spring. The
mums I have, they always give me a second second
blooming in the early to mid spring.

Speaker 2 (01:18:32):
How long is that flower bloom supposed to last? When
you get them at the store, they look so beautiful.
How long should those blooms last?

Speaker 9 (01:18:40):
They should last two weeks or so. A lot of
it depends on how open they are, you know. I
always look for the ones that are kind of a
tight bud yep, you know, if I have time that way,
they last a lot longer. The ones that are just
completely full bloom, those blooms they're going to start dying

(01:19:00):
off here and there, probably in over a matter of
a week or so.

Speaker 1 (01:19:05):
Good Intel, Mary, thanks for the time. We'll talk again
in a couple of weeks, all right.

Speaker 9 (01:19:10):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
Thank you, Mary Rock from Esposito Garden Center and they're
online at Espositogardencenter dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:19:23):
Morning Show with Preston Scott Boy. That escalated quickly. I
mean that really got out of hand fast.

Speaker 16 (01:19:31):
On WFLA time for a little good news.

Speaker 1 (01:19:45):
We like to just take the final half hour of
the show and just.

Speaker 2 (01:19:51):
Yeah, exhale, uh huh. This story I've saved Cal Rawley,
f SU baseball player, great FSU player. He was like
this line that we had. We had Buster Posey and
then we had cal Raley and we're like catcher University, right,

(01:20:17):
and Cal ends up having one of those seasons in
Major League Baseball. I think he should be the MVP.
Mariner is one of the top teams in Major League Baseball.
Cal Raley hit his sixtieth home run before the season ended.
They won the American League West title for the first
time in twenty four years. But listen to this, the

(01:20:40):
guy who a fan caught in Seattle his sixtieth home run.
Now to put some context on that for those of
you that might not be baseball officionados, there are seven
players in Major League history with sixty home runs. Babe Ruth,
Roger Marris, I'll wink wink, nod nod, Mark McGuire and

(01:21:02):
Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds because they all cheated, and Aaron
Judge who didn't cheat.

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
So in my mind, he's.

Speaker 2 (01:21:11):
The fourth honest player in baseball history to hit sixty
or more home runs. That's incredible. So this fan catches
the ball and he gives it to a little boy
that's nearby. That's not his it's not his son, it's
just some random kid that he hands the ball to. Well,

(01:21:33):
at that point, that boy and his dad are led
by security workers to have the ball authenticated. But the
boy said, this is the dad, Galen Relos. My son
whispered to me and said, Dad, because it's cal I

(01:21:56):
want him to have the ball. Dad said, he was
never thinking are we going to keep it for money?
That wasn't even a thought. We have the future MVP hopefully,
and my son Marcus touched history. That's kind of more precious.
He'll live with that forever. So they gave the ball

(01:22:19):
away to cal Raley in return. The Mariners hear about
all this, they try to identify who is this fan
who gave this ball away to this little boy. The
first fan who caught it. They identified him. His name

(01:22:41):
is Glenn. They aren't they're not naming him. And cal
Raley gave Glenn and his family assigned bat with two baseballs,
which he gave to his kids. The boy who gave
it to him, the Mariner said, a a gracious, sincere,
random act of kindness. They gave him a signed bat

(01:23:06):
and took the family down to and and they got
They got to the boy got to be on the
field for batting practice. Come on, everybody won. Cal Rowley
got his baseball back. Two little two kids got the
experience of a lifetime. I mean friends, when you when

(01:23:32):
you think of others, first, good happens.

Speaker 1 (01:23:36):
And that is the purpose of this segment called Good.

Speaker 2 (01:23:42):
