(00:00):
Hello, Kelly Nash, Good morning. It's time for tomorrow show Today.
Tomorrow's Wednesday, the eighteenth of April. This it is. We're excited about
that hump day big weekend coming up. This is what they call the big
game Cock weekend around here. It'sgoing to be huge. We're going to
be actually speaking with coach Shane Biemeron Thursday or Friday. Oh, I

(00:22):
don't know, but we got topromote it. Yeah, I know,
it's what I'm saying. Those things. We've already recorded this interview. We
talked to him about twice a year. See, we played on Thursday morning
on Friday morning. You could doit on both, right, you could
do it early on one morning andlate on the other morn You're going to
do it. It's seven o'clock onThursday is six o'clock on Friday. Oh
wow, I love it because it'sless work for me. How about you.

(00:44):
That's what we're all about. That'sright. Speaking of work, we
have a woman. I missed thisstory when it originally came out. She's
in the news today because she isapparently like London's top divorce lawyer. She
does like all of the soccer playerdivorces and all the you know, as
she's always in the press and heragency, her legal team messed up yesterday

(01:11):
and inadvertently pushed a button which gota couple instantaneously divorced. And it's a
really bizarre thing. The judge said, I can't overrule it. Once they
pushed that button and it was approvedby the court, they're divorced, even
though none of the financial stuff hasbeen settled. Who pushed a button,

(01:32):
some law clerk, what button didyou push? It was? They were
supposed to be finalizing a divorce betweenanother couple and they put the wrong couple
up there when they pushed it.The court just automatically accepts what information out
of the computer. Huh. Wecan't retrieve that, we can't back up.
No, he said, I acknowledgeit's a total cluster, but it's
on your fault. And now theyhave to get remarried in order to get

(01:56):
divorced if they want to risk itreasonable thinking that we need This is why
AI is so desperately needed, becausewe don't need that, all say stupid
people in positions of power. Andit's not just here in the US,
it's worldwide. But the woman who'sin charge of all that is a woman
named Aisha of Vardag and she's apparentlyquite famous in England. And I guess

(02:21):
at twenty twenty two she became morelegendary because, as the head of her
own law firm with one hundred andtwenty lawyers working there, she then outlawed,
banned, would not allow it inher office. Cardigan sweaters. Excuse
me, she said, I findthem offensive, boring and middle class.
We are none of those things.No cardigan sweaters. It is this law

(02:46):
firm. So as you, asthe the head of the iHeart offices,
or whomever's listening to the head ofyour offices, if you could ban some
piece of clothing. Andy's still veryupset that he can't wear flip flops.
You know, maybe he could.The guy who put out that decree is

(03:06):
no longer here. He's gone,and the guy who used to sort of
enforce it also no longer here.The new big toe. I don't know
that the new big Toe cares.I don't think he has a position on
that. I'm not going to I'mnot going to email him and ask you.
I mean, you have a positionon appropriate office footwear or clothing?

(03:27):
Andy would be beyond what was theword you were using early peshaw or whatever
that word was. He'd be beyondthat if you ban T shirts. Because
I don't know, other than aboutthree or four times a year, have
I ever seen him wear anything otherthan a T shirt. I don't think
I'll go out and say this.I don't think I've ever seen Andy Woods

(03:51):
wearing a collared shirt in my life. There are photographs he's warned them to,
like baby christenings and things of thatnature. Now a tie, I
don't know that that's ever grazed hisneck. But I have seen a couple
of dressed type shirts with collars,with collars with collars. Now I have

(04:12):
never seen him. I don't thinkI've ever seen him wear I might have
seen him wearing like a golf shirt, like back when we were wcs used
to make us wear w cos golfshirts. I don't think I ever saw
him in one of those. Healways wore the T shirt. I feel
like I saw him in one once, like there was like it was like
a thing like around twenty ten,so going back fourteen have reason to believe

(04:34):
Andy Woods has actually worn a collegeshirt since he left his mom and Dad's
house at the age of seventeen.But his T shirts, I guess are
rather expensive. I think that,you know, he always got an interesting
collection. I don't know how expensivethey are, but they are limited editions.
He gets them from Lucky It's calledLucky Brand. Lucky Brand is his

(04:54):
favorite, and I think he tellsme the average T shirt is about forty
dollars, so they're high end,very soft, very form fitting. He
works out a lot, so hewants to show off his physique. Sure,
but yeah, if we came outwith a policy no more T shirts
allowed, yeah, that might bethe indivation I could do it. That

(05:15):
might just be the end of him. I don't think he would come back
into the building. I think itwould insist on doing it remotely from his
home. Now today, I seehe's wearing shorts. Now, there was
when the old Big Toe was here, a no shorts policy. I didn't
know about that one, which wepushed it every now and again on days
when it was going to be onehundred. I would I don't think ever
short office and I would wear themif I had a golf outing that day,

(05:40):
knowingly, still just one of mygolf trousers. I would. I
don't wear trousers. Like, ifit's above ninety summer pants, no trousers.
It's a no trouser policy for meabove ninety. Below ninety, I'll
wear trousers if I were doing appropriategolf khakis or the like. But Andy's
got short on today, which isa direct violation of the former Big Toast

(06:02):
policy. What would be? What'sthe thing in your office? You wish
you could just make the decree withan email today? No more blank could
be? Could be sports apparel.No more Clemson tiger paws. Oh wow,
yeah, no more game cock clothing. Everybody here must wear. No

(06:30):
more cheap jackets. Now who whodecides if it's cheap you can get called
let's just say cheap something like thatwhere it's all subjective. Cheap jackets,
you get three strikes in your out. So if you come into the office,
yeah, jacket you bought to themall, Okay, strike one,
You get your butt down to grangeror wherever you need to go to get

(06:56):
a jacket worth the durrn. Youknow those on I got one belts that
plainly have been used for so manyyears, and you keep letting them out
because you're getting fat, but it'sgot the mark. Oh wow, Like
your uncle used to wear those allthe time. That's bad formed, bad
form. I used to because Iused to be massive. So I was

(07:21):
like three hundred and thirty pounds atmy largest, So my belt at one
point was like a forty six.So then I lost some weight and I
went down rather substantially, like Ilost like four belt sizes and like maybe
I don't know, four six monthssomething like that. And I remember doing

(07:43):
the punch into the belt because Ididn't want to go buy a new belt,
and I was because you're still losingweight, that was the anticipation.
I actually didn't lose any more weightfor a while, so I was like,
but I so I was walking aroundfor maybe three or four months with
a belt that kind of went halfway around my back. That was a
bad look. That's a bad look. It almost makes it like not worth

(08:07):
losing the weight exactly. But that'sgood. What kind of office clothing decree?
As the king or the queen?What would be your decree? I
like it. We have a morningRussian regular who's got a problem. This
is a parental advice segment. Herfifteen year old daughter was recently, I'm

(08:28):
assuming this past weekend caught. Shedoesn't describe how caught, but caught smoking
and drinking, smoking and drinking.Now, I don't know if this is
a group party type of thing orwhat's happening. She told the daughter,
we're going to talk about this later. You know, you're coming home now

(08:50):
or whatever. But she separated herfrom the alcohol and tobacco. But she's
afraid of coming down too hard becauseshe doesn't want to drive the daughter away.
But at the same time, shewants to come down hard enough that
the daughter knows this is a seriousoffense. And her biggest concern is that,

(09:16):
you know, her daughter will developan addiction to alcohol or tobacco,
and she doesn't want that for her. But she doesn't know. If I
come down too hard, maybe Iactually push her towards that lifestyle. And
if I don't come down hard enough, So what do you do? Both
ways? But we've heard tragic storiesof people have pushed so hard that just

(09:37):
it reinvigorated the rebellion in them.You know, I heard an interesting analysis
of being a parent. I hadnot heard it put this way before.
From zero to five, you're basicallykeeping them alive. That is your job
is to keep them alive from zeroto five, from five to a about

(10:00):
ten, you're a cop, sothat at that age you're just knocking things
out of their hands. Don't dothat, don't do this, don't do
that. But by around ten youhave done all of the copping you're gonna
do. Now you're transferring into whatthey described as a as a coach.

(10:24):
So now you're it's a different typeof parenting totally. And then it around
fifteen. Around fifteen, you're nolonger your coach, and now you're an
advisor. They can they can takeyour advice and they can do whatever they
want. And so as the advisor, because the like he like he's the

(10:46):
guy was talking, he said,you know, you may have a seventeen
year old and say, well,while you're living under my roof, you
do what the hell I say.Okay, you want to eat, you
want a bed, you do whatI say, and they will do it
because they understand and I can't affordto live on my own. But they've
already decided consciously or subconsciously, thatperson will never have a say in my

(11:09):
life again. Yep, I havebuilt a wall between me and that parent,
and when I move out, that'llbe the end of it. And
already, while I'm living here,I no longer value them at all,
doing it just because I have todo it, because I can't afford to
do nothing else. But as soonas I get my own money, yes,
So you go from a coach toan advisor, and then you're pretty

(11:30):
much on the advisor role the restof your life, because you know,
when you got a forty year oldadult kid, you're not telling them you've
got to do this. I don'teven have an opinion unless they ask yes,
and then understand it's you. AndI always preface it with you know,
I don't like give an advice,so don't confuse this as advice.
But there isn't just my thoughts.You're when you talk about a fifteen year

(11:52):
old. If I'm just going undermy friend's analogy, you're on the cusp
from coach to advisor. How ricky, how much advising are we doing on
a fifteen year old? I mean, but they're still very young. They're
still very they they think they knoweverything, but they have no idea what

(12:13):
they don't know, and their brainsaren't fully developed. They don't know what's
good, and then you're mixing alcoholinto that. That's a recipe for disaster.
But you can't force them to notdrink, even though the low says
you can't drink for another six yearsunless you're in the house. I've already

(12:33):
told you they're going to do thatunder my roof. So how do you
what kind of punishment? This setsthe tone? All right, we're going
to need your adverse, your expertparenting advice tomorrow morning. Is this one
of those it's going to hurt memore than it hurts you type of thing.
Oh, we'll get to find out, all right, So we got
