Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Kelly Nash. Hey there it's tomorrow show Today Tomorrow.
Shi t is so happy it's Thursday on the morning rush.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Isn't that great?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I love it? Getting closer to the weekend?
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Yes, sir, can you smell it?
Speaker 1 (00:13):
What's the point spread on the Gamecot Game four?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
By the way, that'll be a part of our what
you're talking about? Oh yeah, so what you're talking about
if you have not played that game yet, we basically
give you a word or a phrase that might be
a little bit beyond what we normally would discuss, words
like verbiage that we don't traditionally use in our language.
(00:39):
But for tomorrow, I think this is a word that
you've all heard because on Saturday, the South Carolina game
Cocks are going to play the Oklahoma Sooners for the
very first time in either one of the program's history. Obviously,
you couldn't have one play the other without the other
one being a part of it as well. So Oklahoma
or South Carolina has never happened. It'll up and on
(01:00):
Saturday and we're going to Norman, Oklahoma for the game.
The question is, what is a Sooner.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
A lazy person?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Wow? That is not right, But what why would you
name yourself after a lazy people?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Ay, sooner sit around and do nothing and you know,
take a look at a snake. That's the only time
I've ever heard sooner. That was was very derogatory. You
didn't want to be called a sooner. Good, it's gracious.
That would be a very introvert to sit there and
dish slowly and never get up and do anything. Just sooner,
sit under that damn treeover is, come over and help.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
That's I guess maybe a South Carolina sooner. Okay, that's
not what an Oklahoma sooner is. And you might have
heard the phrase boomer sooner. I've heard that phrase. I didn't.
I thought it just rhymed.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I didn't thought it was a lazy boomer.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Well, no, sir. In the eighteen thirties, Oklahoma was not
a state till the nineteen hundreds, but in the eighteen thirties,
Congress was trying to clear out the land of engines.
I didn't like those Indians out there, and so they
created the tier of the Trail of tears.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
A bit of friction going on, a little bit of
friction Americans.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Then they told Americans, if you'd like to settle the land.
We're having basically races. Yes, and so you go on
out for the race.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
They'd said to the great Tom Cruise Nicole Kibman movie
where they ended up getting married, And the name of
that movie was wasn't Sooners. I didn't say it was
about a great you know, the great land grab and
when Americans lined up in covered wagons and rolled across
the Midwest.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yes. So the word settlers or settlers in general anywhere
in America at that time were called boomers. So you're
a boomer if you were what we would call a settler. Now,
the people when they had these big races to settle
certain areas of land, they would have people lined up
(03:00):
and you had to wait till they fired a gun,
and then you would take off and try to get
to the piece of land that you wanted to settle.
Anyone who jumped the gun was called a sooner. Oh,
so that's how you get the boomer sooners a sooner boomers. Now,
that word evolved by the late eighteen hundred eighteen hundreds,
(03:23):
and what the meaning became at that point was somebody
with a can do attitude. You got that can do spirit,
and you're a Sooner.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Far and Away was the movie. I had to look
it up. But it's about that great race for land
and whiles taking out your claim and that was a
rough time right there, brother Ronald. I would produce that movie.
It's pretty good movie.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Really.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I've never far in a way, never even heard of it,
but I probably saw the previews and just was not
interested at the time.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
But it seemed like she had come here from somewhere
in Europe to be part of the great sooner opportunity.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh her character, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, it's not her personally, yes, but I can't remember.
I do want to go back and watch that movie
now that we think about it.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Do we still have land? Yeah? We do, because you'll
see every now and again they'll be talking about like
certain houses or whatever. They'll be like, it's ten acres
with this house for a dollar, just come here, and
nobody wants to go take it.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Somewhere Miserable.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
There's some states that are doing a lot of things
to get a lot of people to move there. Holme's
got a great public service announcement or ye AD campaign
about moving there.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, why would I want to move to South Dakota.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Their land of opportunities right south or North Dakota forgotten,
but it's in the Dakotas she's in the Dakota, and
the Dakota's is one of the two. You're right. And
there are all kinds of opportunities there for incredibly good
paying jobs. I think some of them energy related.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
But you'll have to live there, right, Yes, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
In a commitment there. It's a great tax reduction for
most Americans. A lot of people are moving there.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I would not live there.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
We see, this is the adventurous spirit, spirit of the
Americans moving there to come and go.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Young man, young man, Well all right, so now you know,
now I know what you're talking about. Sooner what you're
talking about. Six point thirty, you have the answer. You
can win the Cane Brown concert tickets for tomorrow morning.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
We're expanding our mind here on the Morning Rash, making
sure you understand the definitions of words you can use
three times today in the regular vocabulary. I don't know
you're going to do it on this.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
We're but we're also getting ready for Saturday, now that's right,
that's right. We're going to be playing the Sooners.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
The Sooners and the Sooner definition is someone who jumped
off before the gun fired.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Well, it actually means somebody with the can do spirit. Oh,
that's what it evolved into. But it started with the
Oklahoma Boomer Sooners or the people who jumped the gun.
But then those people were rewarded later on and said
there's those are the people with the king and do spirit.
I guess we call them cheaters.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I don't know anyway, Yeah, because they they got the land,
they went out and staked out their land.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
That they did that we did, let's see what was it.
I just think we ought to let people know, speaking
of Oklahoma, that there is a meat processing plant out
there called Bruce Pack. They're yeah, not that you would
know that, but Bruce Pack is the official meat packers
for Walmart, Kroger, Trader Joe's, Public's all these target, Amazon
(06:32):
and Wegmans, and the USDA this morning released a three
hundred and twenty six page document recalling meat from all
of those stores and more. Most of these are the
chicken in salads. So if you're buying a salad that
has cut up chicken in it, uh huh, it was
probably from Bruce Pack in Oklahoma, and they think it's
(06:54):
all got listeria in it.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
So that's why I insist don't buying my chicken from
Gentry Produce or Gentries Meat packers in Saluta County. The
best dressed chickens. You get a little bow ties.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
On them, Oh well fancified.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Well it does on the sign. They don't actually have
little bow ties on the chickens, although always they done when.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
They package them. Yeah, there, that would be great. Maybe
make it out of, like, you know, some sort of
vegetable or something. So I have chicken and vegetables, beautiful.
What else do we have going on for tomorrow morning?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
And I like those because, by the way, when you
go to like fresh market and stuff and you get
a chicken breast, if you noticed how big those damn
things have getting now a.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Chicken breast, don't them. I don't buy them because they're
they're they're they're disgusting.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I know. This is why you get a gentry said,
it's got like a regular sized chicken in the package. Yeah,
like the same size we used to serve up when
we when we used to barbecue them on the grill
back in the day.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I mean literally a chicken breast should be about the
size of your hand, right, like I mean a fist
I should on my it's like a fist, which is
a portion of food.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
We were laughing that, you know, back in the day.
I don't know if you ever participated in this when
you were a kid, but you'd have like a fundraiser
where they have a barbecue. They have a barbecue plate
you could buy, okay, so you'd have all these guys
and these huge cookers out there. Used to go to
the one that next to Amyx Farms, and they had
these tremendous size cookers, and you'd have these half chickens.
(08:27):
It's a whole half a chicken right there together is
one piece, and you fit that whole half a chicken.
It would go inside one of those takeout trays. Yeah,
with the you know whatever the size were a potato
salad and something else and a roll. You can't even
fit a chicken breast anymore because of the way that
we feed these chickens with steroids.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Yeah, we got seventy pound chickens. Yes, I mean they're
ridiculous with the hormones so big their little legs break
and you're eating that, which is that you're putting the
hormones into your body, which is throwing all kinds of
hormonal changes into human beings, which is I mean, it's
kind of scary. We've got some women who are getting
the hot flashes and they're like late twenties now yeah,
(09:09):
I mean, it's like, what is going on. You've got
teenagers who look like men and women that are like thirteen.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah. I remember reading about it when girls are going
through puberty at nine. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah, it's like, well, why, well, because you eat chicken.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
The sizes your head.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Supposed to be the size of your fist. It's the
size of your head that's great. Speaking of health and eating,
this was a story that came out. First off, I'm
going to make a blanket statement, which obviously no blanket
statements are ever true because there's always a exception. But
my blanket statement is, nobody cares about the health benefits
(09:51):
of candy. You don't eat candy to be healthy. You're
not even trying to be cognizant of caloric intake. You're
eating candy because you want to eat sweets. Yes, But
with that being said, the experts have put together a
list of some of the healthier Halloween candy.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
This is good news. I study eating a pound of
the bad. I can eat two pounds of the good.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Do you want to say? I guess what the healthiest
candy is according to the experts.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Boy, this is going to be pretty tough. But I'm
going to assume it's not going to be chocolate, So
I'm going to go with some kind of fruit roll up.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Wrong, Oh what it is? Chocolate?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Is it? Really?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
The healthiest candy is the peanut m and m's.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
The best.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
The second healthiest oresus peanut butter cup.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I would imagine that there's a lot of peanut butter
in this.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Third healthiest is the Snickers bar. So that's the top
three for the healthiest. Now, if you're one of those
people who doesn't like chocolate, per se and peanuts, you're
more of I just want that sugary taste or whatever.
Smarties is the way to go. Smarties contains just twenty
five calories and six grams of sugar. The next one
(11:10):
on that list long way off sour Patch Kids. That's
more than four times the sugar and well, six twelve
eighteen twenty four. It's exactly four times for sure, because
it's twenty four grams of sugar as opposed to six grams,
and it goes from twenty five calories for the Smarties
(11:31):
to one hundred and ten calories for the sour Patch.
So big jump up in calories and sugar. But the
big takeaway on this, which is what we want to
talk about tomorrow, I think, is do you have a
plan for how your kids get to eat the Halloween candy?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Oh? Gotcha?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Did you have a plan when you were I don't
remember a plan being in place for me. There might
have been. I'm not saying there wasn't. I just don't
remember it.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Outside of the fact that I could get pretty much
any candy I wanted when I went to my grandfather's store,
so I wasn't exactly deprived of candy. But when I
was in Saluta at my parents' house on Halloween. You'd
have to ration that out yourself because you wanted it
to last a long time.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Oh, you thought like you were a long term future planner.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Absolutely got to plan that out. Boy, you can't plan
it too far because the chocolate starts to get that white,
chalky covering on it.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I'm more like you're like a cat and I'm like
a dog. Okay, so the dog will just eat and
eat till they vomit and eat some more that wasted
all that right there, that's me. I'll eat. I'll eat
that entire two pound bag of candy. Halfway through it,
I'll be ill, and I'll just keep pushing through. But
according to the experts, what you should do is tell
(12:52):
your kids go crazy, eat as much as you can
on Halloween, really enjoy it as much as you can.
Then we got a plan for the days following, maybe
one or two pieces max per day until it goes away,
so no more going crazy. But that first night they say,
let them eat till they project out well, and it's
(13:16):
you want them to feel sick.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
I got you.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
You want them to go, oh my gosh, I overdid
it nasty.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I don't want to ever eat this again.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
But of course, the next day it's kind of like
with alcohol. I mean, how many times have you adults
said I will never drink again. You said that Sunday morning,
and by Thursday happy hour you're like, ah, you know what,
a couple of bruskies ain't gonna kill me.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
That's great. Yeah, okay, all right, I like it.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
So what is the plan and how has the plan
been in stall? I mean, do you catch kids stealing
the candy? Can they steal from themselves? Like have you
told them only two pieces?
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Oh? I had two brothers, so you had to hide
your candy, So.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
You're talking about stealing from your brother's siblings. I'm talking
about like what if you have one kid? You only
had one kid, Say Janie was your only child and
you told her, all right, You've got roughly fifty pieces
of candy left after your big night out here, two
pieces a day, but then you come back and three
or four days later, she's down to ten pieces? Did
(14:18):
she steal it from herself? She's violated dad's rules? Is
there punishment involved?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
How do you help your kids learn restraint without having
to restrain them physically?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
And if you know how to do it, could you
teach me how to teach myself restraint? And I still
my only restraint is I just don't buy it.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Hard to duck. Take yourself to a chair, Chley, so
you can't move your hand.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
If it's in the house and I like it, it's
getting eaten, that's good. If it's not. If Angela has
lots of things, I don't care about and I won't
eat her fancy chocolate. My wife, Lord, no, she loves well,
well that's the point. It's dar and it's very expensive chocolate.
And I know I'm not sophisticated enough.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Your palette can't appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I got yelled at once we would gone. We were
in Savannah, and she went to I think the guy's
name is Adam Trony, if you guys want to check
out fancy chocolate. I think he's got a place now
in Charleston too, But he had two stores in Savannah,
both completely different, both really just visual. It's like going
into a museum. It's like so fancy shmancy in these places.
(15:34):
And she bought like five things, and I don't know
what it came, probably one hundred dollars for five things.
One of them was basically my my perception of it
was it was like a yodel. Do you remember the
hostess yodels? I think so so we had had dinner
(15:55):
and we were coming home and she was like, you
know what, I was going to give this to so
and so, but I think I'm gonna give him this
other thing instead. Would you like that yodel? Thing whatever
it was called. And I was like, sure, so I'm driving.
She hands it to me, Yeah, and I just put
the whole thing in my mouth at once, and she
(16:16):
was like, what have you donehisticated? Oh, she actually filmed
me like she was like this is she like talking
to her phone like Kelly just ate It's like a
nine dollar moron. Yeah, and she was like you will
never get another one of these again. And I was like,
you know what, good point because I can eat a
two dollars Snickers bar and be just as happy as
(16:37):
the twenty two dollars Adam Torony dark chocolate imported nuts bar.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Why would I possibly give you a fifteen year old
shard and eke when you're just gonna gulp it like
a damn Bruskie.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Give me the realnity on ice bro. Exactly, give me
the realnedy on ice that's nice. I don't need your
two hundred dollars bottle or whatever. I'm not sophisticated enough. No,
your palette can't appreciate it. Yeah, So but I know
that I because I know whatever she's got is expensive chocolate.
(17:09):
I don't even look at it right. It could be
in the house for weeks. Yep, I'm not eating it.
But if she brought home like a piece of cake
from like she goes to these business meetings or whatever
and they give her like food and then she'll bring
some of it home. If I see a piece of
cake in that refrigerator, look out, gone, don't don't let
(17:30):
me see it. You better hide it behind the apples
or something I don't want to eat.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
There's a guy at the fair one time, and I
was there working with the Richland Canter Sheriff's Department doing something.
Was very first day of the fair, before the gates opened,
and there was a guy over there at that huge
maize candy. Oh okay, think you ever seen that? Yeah,
and he puts out a size like fifty nine cents
a pound.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Hey, hey, this is a bargain that is.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
So you go through and there's a bunch of you know, containers,
it's open containers. Just scoop into your bag whatever you want.
And then like every third container there's another collection of stuff.
There's like a boxed collection of all kinds of candies. Okay,
and he may be selling Halloween boxes, I don't know. Anyway,
when you go to check out, if you picked up
a couple of those boxes, like fifty seven dollars to
(18:17):
get out of the maze. Oh yeah, because he got
you so but bait and switch. He was setting all
that up. He was on the phone. I mean he
was cussing this guy out on the phone. I mean
he was pitching a fit. And I'm just trying to like,
I'm not looking at him, but he knows that I could.
I'm within here, earshot.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Okay, and uh.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
He hangs up the phone, and I looked at him
and I said something like I had a rough day
over there. He went off on an even bigger tyrade.
Somebody who had ordered all the candy he was unloading
it at the fair or forgot to order in boxes
and boxes. I think it was a banana toffee because
I'm in South Carolina. By god, what do you think
(19:00):
you're supposed to send down here? Where's my banana toffee?
Because in South Carolina, banana toffee is what moves the
needle bar. You got to have the banana toff. I
think it was a banana toffee. I forgot what it was.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
I've never had banana toffee.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
He was going, it's the yellowing whatever that yellow top.
I've had some before. It's pretty good. I didn't realize
it's one of South Carolina's most popular candies. Oh my god,
but try it.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Bit well. I'm pitching a fit that I don't have
banana coffee. Now get me my banana toffee. All right.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
