I don't remember. I saw this thing online the other
day about it's designed for stress relief and anxiety relief.
Like it's a bear or whatever animal it is, and
it has these big long arms that you drape over
your shoulders and you hug it and people are like,
oh my gosh, this feels so amazing.

To ken Ba Mtumbo is my favorite player based on
name alone. Okay, his full name is to Kenba Mutumbo,
Polanda Mukamba's Jean Jaquoa Mtumbo. That's his full name. I'm
sure it's funny because it's different, and he's got he's
got two sons. He named his first son to Kembe Mtumbo,
Polanda Mukamba's Jean Jacka Mtumbo Junior. All right, and I'll

(03:49):
try to pronounce the second son's name for you and
not stumble over it. Ryan. I feel like he's playing favorites.
Family name is skewed way over to the first kid.

(04:10):
I feel sorry for Ryan. You know, Ryan gets stuck
doing all the chores in that house, and that house
is a lot of I need someone to mold a
lawn to come by, Tombo.

Yeah. Okay, Day seven team for the trivia question. Let's
take some phone calls. Good morning, who's this? Good morning?
This is Holly all right, Holly roadwory trivia question. All right, so, uh,
the first patent for this goes back one hundred and
forty years ago. A female improved the design about one
hundred years ago, but it did not get popular because
men refuse to have anything to do with it. Initially,

(05:19):

you doing good? How you doing?

Speaker 4 (06:32):

Speaker 1 (06:34):
It's probably wrong. Okay, Well listen, I'm taking Thursday and
Friday off, so they're the last calling a take today,
you get it right when otherwise same question on Monday,
So make it a good one, dude. It's a lot
of pressure.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Man, typewriter, bump bump up.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, we've had a lot of people say typewriter, so nope,
not it.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
All right, Well you guys have a good day, thanks
for calling.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
All right, no winter today. I'm off Thursday and Friday,
so we'll go and do it Monday. And oh, by
the way, tomorrow, tomorrow I'm going to post a podcast,
but it's going to be an introduction to my brand
new podcast called dead Air. Johnny's Dead Air podcast.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
So great, it's very good I've heard.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
So do you do you have a do you have
a guest? Or do you have a question?

Speaker 2 (07:24):
I have a question? Okay, So we've established that it's
bigger than a bread box.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yes, and it's something you don't plug in. One hundred
and forty years ago, there wasn't a lot of electrical appliances.
So think about that.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Is it bigger than today's washing machine?

Speaker 1 (07:42):
It's smaller? Okay, it's smaller than that. Okay. What's the
most important to me?

Speaker 3 (07:47):
News?

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Updates, dates, I like the local news. All right, smaller
than a washer, but bigger than a bread bread box.
All right, what's going on?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Are you worried the milk has gone bad? Well, just
have the robot taste it. Researchers at Penn State University
developed an electronic tongue that can monitor food freshness. Do
we really need this? I mean the device uses super
thin sensors and artificial intelligence to detect food spoilage, frauds.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
We need this. We need something like we couldn't possibly
stick our nose into the milk carton and see if
it smelled bad. We couldn't possibly do that.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
The high tech tongue works like our own sending signals
to an AI brain that can distinguish between different liquids
with more than ninety seven percent accuracy. So they say
it can detect fraud like bake wines or fake whatever,
so again, totally unnecessary. There is a treatment method called

(08:48):
immersion therapy where you're exposed to whatever is causing you
mental distress to help you get used to it. Aaron
Phoenix believed it was effective, so he built a tarantula
cave in his house with over one thousand spiders in it.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
No No, No, No No.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
With the slogan changing the way people see spiders eight
legs at a time, he travels around England to help
people overcome their fear of spiders. Starting his collection was
the advice of his doctors, who told him a hobby
could help his mental health out after he was diagnosed
with bipolar disorder. He also hosts children's birthday parties with

(09:26):
his collection, the largest of which he says is the
size of a dinner plate.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
No way, uh no, I'd rather have a pet electronic tongue.
I know. We have a listener. Her name's Jackie. She
calls all. In fact, she just called for the roadway
trivia question. She has pet spiders. Yeah, that's not a pet.
I have a spider when there's so many other furry aupictions, right,

(09:52):
you know.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Cuddle up with them. Then I'll get it excited when
you come home.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
No, no, all right, let's do this time for another
round of who sings it? Well known three WUS artists
before they hit it pig, tell me the singer of
the band they're famous for being in, and we'll give
you tickets for Chicago.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Let's give you the sold.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah hard back of the day.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Because all right, val, do you have any idea who
it might be.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
I'm gonna say it's not Don Henley, But no.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
I'm gonna say it's not. All right, tell me who
sings it? We'll give you tickets for Chicago u PMC
Event Center, Moon Township Wednesday, November fifth. Just tell me
who sings it? Three wus? Good morning? Who's this? I

(10:58):
didn't say you doing's good?

Speaker 2 (11:00):
How are you doing good?

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Give me a chance to win tickets for Chicago November
fifth at UPMC at Bens Center. Have a well known
three WS artist before they hit it big. If you
can tell me who sings it, we'll give you tickets
for the show. Let's give this a listen. Here you go,

(11:23):
who is that singing? Huh?

Speaker 2 (11:26):
I mean Rogers?

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Paul Rogers of a bad Company. Fame is not the answer. No,
that's not the answer I'm looking for. Sorry, all right, thanks,
all right, So the answer for the who sings it,
it's Peter Sta his first band. He was only I
think sixteen or seventeen when he joined. It was called
The Exceptions that the song is called.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
You Always Hurt Me?

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Who as heard me? Boy?

Speaker 3 (11:54):
Did we?

Speaker 1 (11:54):
All? Right, let's do this. It's beginning to look a
lot like Chris. I know. I think it's a little
odd that we're playing Christmas music on October eighth. No,
but the reason is Joe Waterick Hello, the hen Yinser
The Very ins of Christmas are fourth annual Christmas show

(12:15):
at the ben Atem is coming up on December eighth,
and tickets went on sale today. Yes, sir, that's amazing. Yes, sir.

org yes, which is the Benedem website. Yes, and use
the promo code Yinser.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Okay, and then tickets go and sell to the general
public on what Friday, Friday the tenth. Okay. So it's
in past years you've recorded an album, you did that,
and you've didn't did that for the last three years.
But this year you recorded a brand new collection of
Christmas song exactly.

Speaker 5 (12:50):
It is a it's such a library of songs that
people are gonna love it, and the performances are unbelievable.
What we've caught on tape, I can only imagine it's
gonna be live. And if you know, if you've been
to the US show, you've seen our user band as well.
And our user band is some of your favorites, a
lot of folks from from the b if you would

(13:10):
go to the be Taylor Christmas shows, a lot of
the band is the same band, and we added quite
a few others. The Soulville Horns are part of it,
and we've got the Sweet Tones, our favorite backup singers
in the world. And it's just an absolute celebration of
the holiday in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
And so when is the record, the album, the Collection
of Christmas Songs going to be available?

Speaker 5 (13:33):
So that will go live this month, Okay, Yeah, so
we're real excited about that, and we will be making
announcements on who.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Are some of the new artists that you've invited to
participate in not only the singing of the you know,
the Christmas classics, but are participating in the show.

Speaker 5 (13:47):
Sure, we're going to have Billy Price is new to it,
Morgan Gruber's new to it, Frank Vieira's new to it.
And then we also have I'm a waterick Em and
Joey Water doing a duet together on it, which I'm
real a little biased there, but that is fantastic. And

(14:07):
then we have some of your favorites like Bill Deasy,
Scott Blazy, Clay, Joe Gershky. The list goes on and on.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
When I tell you, it's all right for those who
are this is a little background information. We don't see
him like at all during the like you know, as
we collect then he rushes in, takes the stage and
just takes over. He's a nut.

Speaker 5 (14:30):
Way do you hear his song? We just sat there
and was like, what. I was mixing it with Jamie
Peck the other day and I just sent him a
TEXTA said, you make me sick. He's like, what's wrong?
I said, you're that good?

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yeah. Yeah, he's a bit of a singer.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
Oh my goodness, he's incredible. He's incredible. In the list
where if you go to inter Christmas dot com you'll
see a list of all the performers, it's a who's
who of Pittsburgh and it is just an absolute joy
to be a part of.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
It's gonna make your holidays. I'm gonna wear one outfit
this year. I don't believe.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
Just well, if you've been in the past, everyone you
know he's lying.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
He has.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
He brings a big garbage change.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
He looks like he.

Speaker 5 (15:08):
Just got you know, if we pulled him out of
summerre He's got this huge garbage bag and he starts
putting on all these different outfits. But that's what makes
the show.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
I'm getting dressed, getting in one of my outfits and
I look around the corner and there's jokersheky looking at
me and just shaking his head like, how much crap
do you own?

Speaker 5 (15:27):
I can only imagine your closet because I have seen
you in disco helmets and whatnot too, so, I mean,
you know, it's kind of.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
What I'm known for. Its unfortunately, that's that's my legacy,
all right. Save the date, Monday, December eighth, of the
fourth annual very ends of Christmas. We haven't talked about
the worthy cause a band together tell us everything we need.

Speaker 5 (15:50):
So band together, Pittsburgh. If you've been to the show
in the past, you've seen the kids get up and
they participate as well, and they will be participating again
this year. They do a fantastic job. It's Band Together.
Pit's an organization that takes folks on the spectrum and
lets them express themselves through music. So whether they're dancing, singing, uh,
doing sound DJing, it's all these wonderful things that they're

(16:12):
able to do, and we give them the ability to
do that. I look up the cause of Band Together
Pittsburgh dot org. It is an absolute fantastic charity and
it'll warm your heart. I promise you. Bring the family down,
bring the friends again. We're going to try to set
the world record for the most ugly Christmas sweaters and
want to place.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
At one time.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
Yins are it up.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
So maybe that's what I should wear, is just ugly
sweaters over No, yes, that would take.

Speaker 5 (16:38):
Away from you. What do you because you're a freak
of nature and you have these great outfits. To just
hold you down to sweaters isn't enough.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
You're too funny. It's always good to see you. Joe's
much like smiling Joe Water. He's always he's he just
brings not voice. Oh yeah, oh tell us about your band.
You're fifty one South. How's that going?

Speaker 5 (17:03):
It is, it's it's been great. It's been fifty one.
South continues to grow and grow and grow. We're doing
new music, we're keeping busy. We're just we've been out
in about town and traveling around. So is the rest
of the band going to participate in hinds or is
that just something separate, that's just something separate. Okay, yeah,
but we love them all. I love you Joe, I
love you too.
