(00:00):
Hello, Kelly Man. Hello,it's Tomorrow show. Today hump Day,
first hump Day at June. Brother, here we go. We got Wednesday,
the fifth of June. Do weknow where Clempson Clemson is going to
host the Super Regional? Correct?Boy, I'll be honest. Once the
game Cocks are out, I don'tknow anything about nothing. I believe Clempson
plays Florida three games in Clemson.I don't watch college baseball. If the

(00:26):
game Cocks aren't playing, what doyou watch now? Totally no, I
don't watch. I'm not even watchingsports. I'll be honest with you.
I haven't seen any This is thenon sports season for Kelly. I might
turn on a Yankees game. TheYankees are doings coming up Thursday, right,
I mean I might watch a littlebit of that. I got the

(00:46):
politicization of sports in twenty twenty was. It kind of turned me off on
most pro sports. I have everwatched a MLB game. I have seen
a highlight. I have seen highlights, but I have not watched an MLB
game since they went political at thebeginning of COVID. Yeah, I'm there.

(01:10):
I didn't watch any NFL, didn'twatch any baseball didn't watch any basketball
when they screwed what's his face?The Djokovic on the tennis yep over the
Covid yept watching that, So Ireally I don't. I don't really watch
golf. I just don't watch sports. I was taken away from me after
fifty plus years on the Earth.I watched the Masters. I know I'm

(01:36):
gonna watch that Sunday afternoon of aboutsix. That's kind of like the Kentucky
Derby for me. I'm gonna watchthe Kentucky Derby. I'm going to tune
in at like six fifteen, andI'm going to see the most exciting two
minutes in sports. Okay, I'mgonna watch the final two three holes of
the Masters, for sure. Butto sit there and watch an entire afternoon
of golf, ay, I can't. I can't stay awake. I don't

(01:59):
know those guys that do the playby play. I don't know why they
don't have special apps to help peoplego to sleep. Their voices are so
soothing. I misearned so much.One of my favorite Niger at the eighteenth
bits was some baseball team last maybelast year, maybe two years ago.
Now. I think it was likea Chicago White Sox game, the announcers

(02:22):
did a tribute to the Masters andcalled an entire inning or half inning as
they were calling the Masters. Now, Badding, I have decide if you
want to be a future big namesportscaster for any sport, okay, for

(02:43):
golf, the place where you honeyour skills is in the WNBA. If
you can call a w NBA gameand make it sound exciting, you are
good. Now why wouldn't it be? Well, I mean, you know,
they have very competitive games. They'rewinning by a point or two,

(03:06):
they're going in overtime, but it'snot exciting. Kelly always box women's basketball.
That's not I don't always not onthe record, No, that's a
I mean, look, women's basketballto me is not a very compelling product
to watch. I'm just not.Don Staley would be chewing you up right

(03:30):
now. Why he because I personallydon't like to watch something. Yeah,
you know, President Biden, Idon't. I don't watch men's basketball either.
Other than the game Cos men's basketballteam, I don't watch. I
don't watch the New York Knickerbockers,which I grew up loving. I don't

(03:50):
watch them. And I don't thinkthat the I don't think that the NBA
product is any good anymore. Ithink that they've changed that game so much
that it's really not know. Whenyou've got final scores going well into the
hundreds every game, it's like,well, what am I watching? It's
basically it's a it's a game ofhorse now. Well, you know,
they changed a couple of the rulesof the upcoming NFL season. One of

(04:11):
them is the way they're going todo the kickoffs now, because they're shortening
the field so guys won't have afull head of steam but they run into
each other. They're also going toallow, apparently, the players who choose
to to wear those cushions on theirhelmets, like a you know, the
cushion helmets, the practice helmets withthe extra cushion for concussion. Does that
do anything? The concussion cushion.You can wear that during the games if

(04:33):
you choose there there I'm really shockedwith the technology we have today that we
don't already have. You remember whenyou watch football on Fox, that robot
looking thing that just a little jumpup with his two legs in the air.
I don't know why we don't havea full ectoskeletons for these players that

(04:55):
will allow them to play without possiblygetting injured, because you know, with
the ecoskeleton, you're not going toturn it angle, You're not going to
get a knee ripped out of itssocket. You're you're not going to It
is a complete body shale. AndI don't even know why we don't have
that. Honestly, Yeah, wedon't have it because one of the dark
sides of human nature is we likeinjuries. Is that why we watched NASCAR?

(05:20):
Although DASCAR drivers now, I mean, who would have ever thought,
I mean, the way that theymake them. Now, these guys could
drive these things off the planet,crash on Mars and they don't even get
hurt. If there's no risk tothe player. It's not interesting. Baseball.
You can get beamed in the face, you can die. We've had
people. We've had Major League Baseballplayers killed in action that sells tickets.

(05:45):
Hockey players have had their lives ruinedby a punch to the face or a
puck to the face or the throat. We had a Goldie I think it
was, who died when a skatecut across his throat and killed them.
Sells more tickets than anything that therisk. Nobody wants it to happen.
But the part of the dark sideof human nature is when you when you

(06:09):
know that a player can die orhe can be paralyzed. I'll remember my
entire life watching the Patriots Raiders pregamepreseason game, I should say, when
Darryl Stingley was paralyzed by Jack Tatumin nineteen seventy five, seventy six,
something like that. And that hasbeen the appeal since the beginning. Of

(06:30):
course, Yeah, the ABC WildWorld of Sports, the guy falling off
the thing, the agony of defeat, Dun dun, dunt, when the
skier goes tumbling down, and oh, everybody tounes in you watch that.
As soon as you hear the drumdoom doom, doom, doom, doom
doom. You gotta make it tothe television in time to see the agony
of defeat. I mean even inlike something like tennis. You know again,

(06:56):
I don't watch tennis per se,but what I do watch is like
docuseriies on tennis. Okay, sothere's one point break is one that's out
on Netflix right now. They hada pretty compelling story about a young player.
I forget his name now, andI shouldn't. He's probably like number
four in the world. But hewas playing, I want to say,
at Roland Garos in France, andpart of that is sliding on the clay.

(07:20):
And he was sliding and he wasactually I think winning the match against
the world's best clay player, andhe went to slide to make a shot
and something happened on his foot justwas different and when it hit the clay
in that way, it snapped hisleg in half. Wow. And he's

(07:42):
twenty one years old sitting there withhis leg broken in half ooh. And
people, of course were mortified whenthey saw it. But how great was
it when a year to the daylater and like twenty pins in his leg
he shows back up and plays hisfirst match at Roland Garrols and that whole

(08:03):
comeback story. And he sucked whenhe came back. And I hated his
girlfriend because she was talking about,well, if he's not man enough for
it, I mean, it's allmental now, it's just mental. Is
he man enough? I don't know, we'll find out if he's a man
And I'm like, shut your mouth, woman, and uh, but he
was. He was horrible. Afterthe game, she said, you know,
that's because he's mentally weak. Butyou know, by the time he

(08:24):
was like twenty three, he wasgreat a samwich. She'd go make me
a sandwich. Mentally weak cola.But he he did get back to his
old form in like two years,and now he's back into like the top
five ors still around. Yeah,I think they're getting married. Oh my
gosh. Yeah. He probably enjoysher pushing him, you know, making
him tougher. He'd be too softwithout her. Ah. But anyway,

(08:48):
but we've kind of gone down adeep dark hole here in the sports Brook.
I didn't even know that's where we'rewho knows. On the Tomorrow Show
Today podcast, we just start talking. It's not like we got and a
half minutes to get our stuff inon air. No, no, no,
we can go anywhere we want togo. So what else are we
going to be talking about? Iwas recently shocked and I won't say the

(09:11):
individual's name, but you know whothe individual is because I told you that.
I was surprised that they did notknow that there was an availability,
an option to shut your lights offon your vehicle. They didn't know that
that even existed. The problem wasthe person with people were flashing their lights

(09:31):
that him or her because they weren'tcoming. They weren't turning their lights on
at night. Yeah. So andthey were like the fuddled by it.
I had to go to the dealerand find out why my light bulbs are
burned out. They came to mebecause they had bought their vehicle at one
of the JT dealerships Yeah, andsaid, can you help me out?
They're telling me that if I havea blown headlight situation, I'm gonna have

(09:54):
to drop the vehicle off and itmight be there for a day or two.
And we got the weekend is coming. I don't want to have to
go a whole weekend with a rentalcar or whatever. And I was like,
when they describe the situation, Isaid, well, often in my
vehicle sometimes I'll my handle hit thething and I'll shut it from auto to

(10:16):
manual. And they're like, whatare you talking about? You know the
little switch it says auto when wherethe lights come on automatically if it gets
dark during rain or at night time, but it comes on appropriate times.
That's what that's what that's Their responsewas, that's what my vehicle. Does
it automatically turns on? And I'mlike, no, no, the switch
though, there's a switch and they'relike, there is no switch. Why

(10:37):
would there be a switch. AndI'm like, there's a switch on every
vehicle in case you ever need toturn your lights off for some reason.
And they were like no, AndI said, well, let's just take
a look at your vehicle. Andbefore they opened the door, and before
they even got into the vehicle,I could see that they have an on
off switch. Basically, it's likea a dial that was down by their

(11:03):
left knee and I could see itbefore they even got in, and I
said, your lights are off andthey were like, what are you talking
about. And I'm like I couldsee it right here. Your lights are
off. And they're like where wheredo you see that? Oh, you
don't even have to start the car. There's a switch. And they were
like, oh, my gosh,there really is. Auto stands were automatic
and it's a light switch. Butthey weren't even aware that that that switch

(11:24):
didn't exist. It was a thinglike we haven't had that since the seventies,
Like why would they make that.There was another person who was unaware
that there was an availability to shutoff the ice production on a freezer.
Why would that be a thing.There shouldn't be that available, but there

(11:46):
is, and you hit it off. Now there's no ice. No ice.
Well it's because my ice machine's broken. No, no, no,
I'll watch this, I'll push thatbutton. Ice is coming back. They
didn't know that. That's great?So are they? What were you shocked
to find out somebody didn't know?That's good? Like there's I'm I'm befuddled

(12:09):
all the time by things. Somebodywas telling me the other day they just
heard about real IDs. What younever heard of a real ID? Like
we just made that change, Likeit was like a thing like ten years
you were supposed to hash. Itwas like mandatory four years ago. And
then everybody kept dragging their feet andwe have problems to the software. Now

(12:30):
I think it's it's June or twentytwenty five. You got one year to
get your real ID. They actuallytold me later. So long now that
it's been at least ten years.So everyone with the driver's license has had
to have a renewed since you can'trenew with a not real ID, right,
So if you've if you've got avalid driver's license since like twenty fourteen

(12:52):
or twenty twelve or something like that, it has been a real what they
call a real ID, which thegovernment put out an extra implementation of security.
Which now this person legit told me, I think that's racist. What
yeah, they told me. Ithink it's racist that you're making Americans get

(13:13):
real IDs. How are you goingto make me get a real ID to
fly on a plane. That's that'sracist, I said, Okay, okay,
all right, Well that is yourlegit position anywhere. I don't I
don't see it that way that onlywhite people can get real IDs. But
you're you're forcing me to get anID that I don't want to get,

(13:37):
and I have to go out ofmy way, I have to go down
to d m V, I haveto pay money. This is all racist.
All right, Well call your callyour federal representative. Did James Cliburn
say that there was racist? Maybehe did. Maybe he signed off on
this too. I got to findout where James Cliburn voted on the real
ID law. I'm pretty sure.Well I'm not pretty of anything with James.

(14:01):
All right, So you know it'sanother automobile thing. But I did.
I was in the car with someone. I guess it was the car
was new to them. It wasn'ta new car, but it was like,
I still, I don't even knowwhich side of put gas on.
And I looked over and I said, it's on the left. How do
you do that? You don't seethat little arrow? Just get the little

(14:22):
arrow thing right there next to theOh, is that what that's for?
Now? Sometimes you'll see something likethat, like I don't know when I
learned that trick, maybe in theeighties or nineties or whatever. But the
because back before that, it usedto be behind the license plate. Yeah,
I wonder why they got read anyway. Uh, but then it became
left or right. But and thenI think it was a few years before

(14:43):
I learned, Like somebody said itand I was like what And then you
just look right here. I waslike, oh, my gosh, it's
really there. That little arrow.It just tells me. But that was
probably thirty or forty years ago.Yeah, on that trick. But then
there's sometimes you'll see like on aI don't know, Instagram or Twitter or
something, they'll show you something thatyou're like, I never knew that,

(15:05):
like like the the little thing likeI'm holding a can of soda. That's
by the way, In case you'rewondering, this is ZVA. This is
a sugar free soda, so I'mnot and it says not not with artificial
sweeteners. So for those of youconcerned, I'm drinking a soda. It's
a healthy soda. But this littlehole in the tab that you pull that's

(15:28):
designed to hold a straw if youflip it all the way over a straw
in. I never knew that,and then I saw it a couple of
years ago on like an Instagram account. I was like, what that is
good? And I guess maybe theywere shocked that I didn't know. All
right, we could think about that. So either something you were shocked you
didn't know, or something you wereshocked other people didn't know. Plus,

(15:50):
we've got a young lady here isthis was not an option three four years
ago and then COVID hit and everythingchanged. And one of the things that
changed is the availability to work fromhome. And so she's got a position
where she can work from home.And if I understand the situation correctly,
she is basically trying to trick heremployers. She doesn't have time off for

(16:18):
a vacation. Okay, but she'sgoing to be traveling and going to a
wedding. Oh gotcha. So that'snot an approved absence from work. She
has to keep working. So hereit is working. I'm going to be
working while I'm on vacation. I'venever tried this before. I don't know
how to balance between. You know, it's a wedding and I have obligations

(16:40):
there, and I'm also going tohave obligations for my job. And I'm
trying to pull this off. I'mworking remote while I'm vacation doing a wedding.
I feel overwhelmed before I even trythis. Does anybody have any tips
on how to pull this off?That's good because I do know people that
do it. What kind of hamstringsor requirements they have to jump through?

(17:03):
They're allowed to travel, not travelwhatever. My initial tip would be,
check email no later than every twohours. You almost need one of those
watches. Yeah, but if yousee it and you might not be able
to get to it, oh gotcha. You know what I'm saying. So
if you give yourself a because Ithink two hours, two and a half

(17:25):
hours, that's a decent that's nottoo long of a response. Your boss
sends you an email at eleven thirtyand you get back to them at twelve
forty five, they're like, oh, okay, they're within the two hour
window. But if you get backat three thirty them, they're like,
where the hell you been all day? Uh huh. Yeah. So if
you check it at eleven, checkit at one, you're just seeing who's

(17:47):
respond and then you're you're able torespond because you it's not easy to respond
to emails if it's not a yesno type of thing. It's like I
need the facts from the such andsuch, where's the numbers on that?
Yeah, now you gotta go backthrough your SCENTI that means you're gonna have
to set up a laptop, andthat means you got to kind of because
you can't cut and paste off yourphone easily. Well, I know they

(18:08):
a lot of morning Russian regulars havealready done all the research on how to
get around it, so you cango do whatever you want to do.
If the phone rings and you don'tanswer it, if you're not in a
good place, if you're if itsounds like you're at a coffee shop or
you're at at the beach or you'relike that, let it go to voicemail

(18:29):
and immediately start trying to get toan area where you can call and nobody's
going to disrupt you. You're notgonna hear giggling people going you want to
dicree, So get out of theway and then call him back in five
minutes. Hey, I'm sorry,I was on another call. What's going
on? Yeah? Oh I likeit? Okay, how to how to
safeguard yourself? And I think youalso got to you gotta let everybody in

(18:52):
that wedding party know that this iswhat you're doing. You absolutely have to
tell them what I'm working. It'sa team effort. Now if I just
disappear, you know, I'm Yeah, Especially on like a destination wedding,
if you're going to like Hawaii,or you're going to some you know wherever
a destination wedding, there's a lotof fun stuff happening. It'd be easy

(19:14):
to get sucked into that. Youcan't have too much fun if you're not
on vacation. But if you're onthe West coast, on the East coast
and you're going to go to adestination in Hawaii, Yeah, what is
that? Because you're how many hoursbehind hours? Five hours behind us,
I'm thinking six. So if it'ssix hours behind us, then that means
you're gonna have to be working tilleleven o'clock at night. Don't get drunk,

(19:37):
Oh my, don't get drunk.Okay, we could deal with some
of that. Hey, what's goingon in your neighborhood we should be talking
about. You know, how toreach out to us on social media?
You can do by email or Rushat ninety seven five people you see us
dot com or Nash at ninety sevenfive wc us dot com. We start
talking tomorrow, you start talking.You know. The number is the number,
it's a three ninety seven eight twosix seven
