Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killy Nash. Hello, it's tomorrow show Today. We'll be
back on Monday with another chance for to win at
six thirty. What you talk about this time? We give
away Mega Maroni tickets.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's kind of cool, Mouse you told us earlier on
the show this morning. She's in Simpsonville tonight.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
She's in the upstate tonight. She's going to be back
in South cac September next year.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Next obviously, so almost what about eleven months from today
September twelfth, it'll be a Friday night the Credit One
Tennis Stadium down there.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
I'm not sure what the move is with the promoters,
but there's an obvious strategic move, or they wouldn't be
doing it because they were all about the money, money,
money at the promoter's office. But these ticket announcements have
been going on earlier and earlier. Remember back in the day,
you'd have like two months before the show tickets to
go on sale. I don't know, I guess maybe maybe
it's the tough economic time. I'm thinking it might be
(00:54):
have something to do with the artists as well, where
they want to map out and hold venues in advance. So,
like Megan Maroney, I mean, she's not going to sell
out the North Charleston Coliseum. Sure, she's not gonna she
can't play the Colonial Life Arena, but she could play,
you know. So I'm trying to think of like some
(01:15):
three thousand cedars, and that's a rare three thousand cedar
in South Carolina. Simpsonville is another one. So if she's
trying to hold that date, and like, I want a Friday,
and I want a Friday in the fall because it's
going to be beautiful. I don't want a Friday in
the summer. It's gonna be too stinking hot. So September
twelfth is like a perfect Friday night.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
It would be beautiful.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Okay, Well you can listen. You win your tickets and
you get that all settled, and then you just put
them in your underwear drawer until September. I put all
my special things in my underwear drawer, don't you.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
If I was going to walk into anybody's house and
steal something, in the first place I'm going is underwear.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
How do you know which one is the underwear drawer?
Speaker 1 (02:02):
It's usually the top left, just from my friends who
have snuck into their bedrooms, like it's friends.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
What do you think about that? Well, uh, we're going
to be playing what you're talking about to win these
Megan Maroni tickets that you're hopefully you're going to stuff
in your underwear drawer. And I don't want to give
you a clue, so I'm just going to read it straight.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Okay, what you're.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Talking about the word on Monday guysing.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Guysing. And this is a relative, relatively new word. Correct, No, sir,
Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I could have said, yes, the three off, but no,
it's an old word.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Oh I thought this was a relatively new word.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
They started it. I thought this is in the sixteenth century,
So that'd be what the fifteen hundreds.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Or some women go down to the visit visa visa
to the take your visa to the vista. You'll need it.
Women a group of women that go to the vista,
for instance, and they'll be prospecting for young males. That's
called guysing.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
That's a great answer. If we were playing what was
the game where they had had the celebrities would try
to trick the people in a tic tac toe game.
Oh yeah, Hollywood Squares. If you had given me that answer,
I said, I'll agree with Jonathan, and then that Peter
Marshall or whoever would have to say, oh, so sorry,
Jonathan's full of crap. Yes, but you gave it, you
(03:27):
meant it, you felt it. Guysing, the original word that
we would use today for trick or treating, started in
the sixteenth century, particularly in Scotland and England. Children would
go door to door in disguise and ask for treats.
It was usually done around New Year's Eve. But guysing
(03:47):
is when you put on a mask of some kind
interesting New Year's Eve. That's when they used to do it.
So we guysing is the original form of trick or treating.
And we'll be getting ready for trick or treating this
a week from this weekend.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Here, what a great idea if I were a kid,
I want to go guysing because you show up on
New Year's Eve, guaranteed nine out of ten adults answering
the door are gonna be drunk or.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
You're talking about now, Yeah, I wonder what it was
like in Scotland in like.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Fifth plastered on New Year's Eve, so you get all
kind of good stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
That was just take take the silverware, I talked to
you about this off the air.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Jonathan does not seem to be a fan of this.
So I'm wondering how would you feel if you are
a sibling or if some some sort of maybe a
distant family member about this obituary that Charles Bohm of
Houston wrote and published in his hometown newspaper in clar
It in Texas after his father, Robert died. He says,
(04:58):
it's not meant to be disrespectful.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
It's supposed to be.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
More about how my dad really interacted with people. Robert Boehm,
in accordance with his lifelong dedication to his personal brand
of decorum, muttered his last unintelligible and likely unnecessary curseword
October sixth, twenty twenty four, shortly after tripping backward over
some stupid bleeping thing and hitting his head born in
(05:21):
nineteen fifty got immediately and thankfully broke that mold attempted
to cover up all evidence. Robert never served in the military,
which is probably for the best, because he took up
shooting as a hobby later in life. Managed to blow
not one but two holes in the dash of his
own car on two separate occasions. Charles was a semi or.
Charles said that his dad worked as a semi professional
(05:42):
truck driver. That is not to be confused with a
professional semi truck driver. I mean it's basically, it's just
like one insult after another. It's like he's roasting his father.
So not a fan of the comedy. We are mocking
the the dead person.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
You know something, now, I know that everybody has been
in the situation like I have, where you showed up
for a funeral. And this literally happened to me the
first time when I was about twenty years old, maybe
twenty one. I showed up for the funeral and I'm inside,
I'm hurried in because I'm late, but I get there
in time. I sit down and I'm listening in the
(06:26):
eulogy to the guy speak about the dead dude, and
I literally, I swear to God, I literally picked up
the bulletin that looked at the name to make sure
I was at the right funeral. That's not this guy.
I'm like, who the hell are you talking? This is
not the guy I knew, Giving Giving, Giving, Giving a
load of crap. Who the hell are you talking? So
(06:49):
I get it that you have to have some grip
of honesty in the eulogy or the the oh bit.
But you don't have to be this blatantly honest. I mean,
come on, they didn't. Most people in the community did
not know your dad that way.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I don't know they knew he was a smart act.
If we were doing an obituary for you, I'm sure
if we told some smart Alex stuff in your style,
people would know exactly what we were talking about.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
But maybe maybe an obituary, by the way it's supposed
to be, have some sense of decorum and a sense
of reverence.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
I don't know. I've already told Sally. In the unlikely
case that I step out in front of a bus,
just go ahead and know. There should be no eulogy
speakers at my funeral. Nobody, no, just the just the preacher.
He does a simple service. We don't want songs.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
This is if you die in an accident of stupidity, yeah, suicide.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Or if God should strike me with lightning today, well,
believe me, he has more than enough reason. So if
I wouldn't be held of that, it guessed him if
he did.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
So you're saying even you just had like a massive
heart attack sitting.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Here, that's it. No, no, no, no speakers.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
And is this a standing order forever or is there
a certain age where you.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Will change my mind? But I don't see that coming.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
And why don't you want the eulogy?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Just just don't want it? Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Simple man wants to be buried with a tree on
top of him, wooden box.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, yeah, I want to buried in a pine box,
no line or nothing, in a suit, something that Frank
Sinatra would wear. Okay, without the hat unless you're gonna
tip it over my head. And then in the I've
already pointed out the place in Saluda County. And then
I want you you need to bury me about ten
(08:44):
feet deep because I want you to plan an oak
tree right on top of me. No, no marker.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
I don't't even want a marker.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
No marker.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Well you know what that brings up a thing. Let
me go try to find this story. I was reading
it this morning. I said, you know what, I should
do something about that one, because I this is just
one of those stories where I feel better about the
youth of America than I did before I read the story.
And I'm trying to find.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It right now.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
It was these two girls in New York and they
spent the summer researching a Civil War guy who was
from their hometown. Here we go just found it. Kendall
and Mary were offered a research project to work on
during their school break, and they loved history, so they
(09:32):
jumped at the opportunity. Daniel Walterhouse, Union soldier, died at
age eighty seven in nineteen ten, never given a proper burial.
The eighth graders at Albiyond Middle School found out that
Walterhouse had been stabbed and spent a year in a
Confederate prison camp before ending up spending the rest of
(09:54):
his life in a poorhouse, unable to work from his injuries,
and because he couldn't afford to anything. When he was buried,
they put him in an unmarked grave. Well, they researched
all that, they found out all there is to know
about this guy, Daniel Walter House, and as Mary said,
he was a war veteran and he got injured serving
his country. He deserves to have a headstone. So she
(10:17):
started a GoFundMe page, and now they've got the money
and they're gonna go give Daniel Walter House a headstone.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And those aren't cheap.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah, I mean that's pretty awesome that these two eighth
graders want to honor a US soldier who was dead
probably one hundred years before they were born. Yeah, and
they just took it upon themselves.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I love that story. The other story that I was
looking at was, let me just get back to that
one real quick. Where did it go? I don't care
about the best candies for trick or treaters, most haunted houses. No,
that's not the story I wanted. Where did it go?
Here we go Pepsi or Pepsi Co. Which is the
(11:00):
company that only not only owns Pepsi, it owns all
the every potato chip you can think of.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Pretty much AFC and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
The CEO announced that they are now adding twenty percent
more chips into Tostitos, Dorito's and other chips. What a
great idea, and they're calling a great marketing ploy bonus bags.
He added that two or three more bags would be
added into the multi packs.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
As a great idea. I have long thought if I
owned a convenience store, if I had could get my
if I can get my hands on that bag, that'd
be one of the things i'd feature, what's that a
great selection of a full bag of chips that may
be even what I call the store full bag of chips. Well,
you get your money's worth.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
They're they're doing this after a French supermarket chain named
I'm mispronouncing it, I'm sure caught a four led the
charge against shrink flation and specifically called out Pepsi Coo
for shrinking the amount of product in their bags. And
(12:07):
once and once that happened, Pepsi said that they've seen
a significant drop in sales. So this is their response
is we're going to add twenty percent more back in.
And then, by the way, that French supermarket chain removed
PepsiCo from all their products from their grocery stores, and
(12:28):
there's like three hundred grocery stores. I said, you're done
with France. We're not going to carry your crap anymore
because you're overcharging for that. So they're now back in,
and I guess if you're like a Dorito's lover or whatever,
they're not saying that they're going to charge more for it,
so you'll be I don't know when that's does the same,
(12:51):
when it's going to happen. I guess it'll I mean,
how quickly can they get that to the store. I
guess November, so next month.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The other thing I do if I were a convenience stores,
I crank the thermostat down on the cooler.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
So it's a colder beverage.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Coldest soft drinks on the planet, just above freezing.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Do you think that that would increase sales or you
just want to do it as a like.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
No, I think it would increase sales if you're going
to get a full bag of chips and a soft
drink or whatever drink that's almost frozen, it's just got
a little crystal to it inside. In South Carolina in August, yeah,
you did to have them lined up around the corner
to get into your store.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
And there is a restaurant in Colombia that advertises the
coldest beer, and I don't remember which restaurant it is,
so that marketing plan didn't really stick with me other
than I remember thinking that's interesting that they would promote
like that, not that we have the best beer or
a great selection of right, we just got the coldest beer.
(14:03):
Come on in and get yourself a Miller High Life
would be frozen. You drink it like a slushie.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
All right, So I I gotta tell you they're I
think if I told my uh, I think I think
if I told either one of my brothers, hey, I
want to write the old bit. I'm not sure the
O bit. Okay, I'm not sure they'll let me do that.
You can do it, they say, Well, they would say, hey,
you're not a very good writer. You get Calma happy,
(14:35):
bet to hire a proof readers, don't don't even frustrate
yourself with it. And they're right, don't bother yourself. They're right,
and they would pick out the best writer. And then
you know, it would be like a like a resume. Okay,
we just have like important dates and marriage this date,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
This is what happened in the dash, so to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yes, that would be the dash. Okay, all right, I
like it. Though maybe you've maybe you've been one of
two things. You have read the O bit or you
were writing one, or you've been to a funeral like
I went to it. You women, am I at the
wrong place.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
That's not describing this guy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
He was just not the guy in the guy and
it was an asshole.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
He was just cursed.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yes, it did wow. I don't even know. I was
only there because it was like a command performance.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I was venturs. I was there because I was happy.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Family member.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I want him to be in the grave so I
can begin dancing total jerk. Well, I don't know that everybody.
My mom loved some obituary that she read of, but
she didn't know the woman. It just happened to be
in the Hartford Current newspaper and it was like, I
care it was a woman, and it was like something
(15:51):
about how she had, uh, you know, finally her two
packs a day and three martini lunches finally took her
die in an eighty seventh year or something like.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
That in our eighties.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
YEA, something that's nearly encourage.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Spoke him if you got him at half free for
lunch to be eighty seven and happy. Hey, what's going
on in your neighborhood? We should be talking about let

no line or nothing, in a suit, something that Frank
Sinatra would wear. Okay, without the hat unless you're gonna
tip it over my head. And then in the I've
already pointed out the place in Saluda County. And then
I want you you need to bury me about ten
(08:44):
feet deep because I want you to plan an oak
tree right on top of me. No, no marker.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
I don't't even want a marker.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
No marker.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Well you know what that brings up a thing. Let
me go try to find this story. I was reading
it this morning. I said, you know what, I should
do something about that one, because I this is just
one of those stories where I feel better about the
youth of America than I did before I read the story.
And I'm trying to find.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It right now.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
It was these two girls in New York and they
spent the summer researching a Civil War guy who was
from their hometown. Here we go just found it. Kendall
and Mary were offered a research project to work on
during their school break, and they loved history, so they
(09:32):
jumped at the opportunity. Daniel Walterhouse, Union soldier, died at
age eighty seven in nineteen ten, never given a proper burial.
The eighth graders at Albiyond Middle School found out that
Walterhouse had been stabbed and spent a year in a
Confederate prison camp before ending up spending the rest of
(09:54):
his life in a poorhouse, unable to work from his injuries,
and because he couldn't afford to anything. When he was buried,
they put him in an unmarked grave. Well, they researched
all that, they found out all there is to know
about this guy, Daniel Walter House, and as Mary said,
he was a war veteran and he got injured serving
his country. He deserves to have a headstone. So she
(10:17):
started a GoFundMe page, and now they've got the money
and they're gonna go give Daniel Walter House a headstone.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And those aren't cheap.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah, I mean that's pretty awesome that these two eighth
graders want to honor a US soldier who was dead
probably one hundred years before they were born. Yeah, and
they just took it upon themselves.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I love that story. The other story that I was
looking at was, let me just get back to that
one real quick. Where did it go? I don't care
about the best candies for trick or treaters, most haunted houses. No,
that's not the story I wanted. Where did it go?
Here we go Pepsi or Pepsi Co. Which is the
(11:00):
company that only not only owns Pepsi, it owns all
the every potato chip you can think of.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Pretty much AFC and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
The CEO announced that they are now adding twenty percent
more chips into Tostitos, Dorito's and other chips. What a
great idea, and they're calling a great marketing ploy bonus bags.
He added that two or three more bags would be
added into the multi packs.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
As a great idea. I have long thought if I
owned a convenience store, if I had could get my
if I can get my hands on that bag, that'd
be one of the things i'd feature, what's that a
great selection of a full bag of chips that may
be even what I call the store full bag of chips. Well,
you get your money's worth.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
They're they're doing this after a French supermarket chain named
I'm mispronouncing it, I'm sure caught a four led the
charge against shrink flation and specifically called out Pepsi Coo
for shrinking the amount of product in their bags. And
(12:07):
once and once that happened, Pepsi said that they've seen
a significant drop in sales. So this is their response
is we're going to add twenty percent more back in.
And then, by the way, that French supermarket chain removed
PepsiCo from all their products from their grocery stores, and
(12:28):
there's like three hundred grocery stores. I said, you're done
with France. We're not going to carry your crap anymore
because you're overcharging for that. So they're now back in,
and I guess if you're like a Dorito's lover or whatever,
they're not saying that they're going to charge more for it,
so you'll be I don't know when that's does the same,
(12:51):
when it's going to happen. I guess it'll I mean,
how quickly can they get that to the store. I
guess November, so next month.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The other thing I do if I were a convenience stores,
I crank the thermostat down on the cooler.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
So it's a colder beverage.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Coldest soft drinks on the planet, just above freezing.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Do you think that that would increase sales or you
just want to do it as a like.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
No, I think it would increase sales if you're going
to get a full bag of chips and a soft
drink or whatever drink that's almost frozen, it's just got
a little crystal to it inside. In South Carolina in August, yeah,
you did to have them lined up around the corner
to get into your store.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
And there is a restaurant in Colombia that advertises the
coldest beer, and I don't remember which restaurant it is,
so that marketing plan didn't really stick with me other
than I remember thinking that's interesting that they would promote
like that, not that we have the best beer or
a great selection of right, we just got the coldest beer.
(14:03):
Come on in and get yourself a Miller High Life
would be frozen. You drink it like a slushie.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
All right, So I I gotta tell you they're I
think if I told my uh, I think I think
if I told either one of my brothers, hey, I
want to write the old bit. I'm not sure the
O bit. Okay, I'm not sure they'll let me do that.
You can do it, they say, Well, they would say, hey,
you're not a very good writer. You get Calma happy,
(14:35):
bet to hire a proof readers, don't don't even frustrate
yourself with it. And they're right, don't bother yourself. They're right,
and they would pick out the best writer. And then
you know, it would be like a like a resume. Okay,
we just have like important dates and marriage this date,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
This is what happened in the dash, so to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yes, that would be the dash. Okay, all right, I
like it. Though maybe you've maybe you've been one of
two things. You have read the O bit or you
were writing one, or you've been to a funeral like
I went to it. You women, am I at the
wrong place.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
That's not describing this guy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
He was just not the guy in the guy and
it was an asshole.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
He was just cursed.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yes, it did wow. I don't even know. I was
only there because it was like a command performance.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I was venturs. I was there because I was happy.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Family member.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I want him to be in the grave so I
can begin dancing total jerk. Well, I don't know that everybody.
My mom loved some obituary that she read of, but
she didn't know the woman. It just happened to be
in the Hartford Current newspaper and it was like, I
care it was a woman, and it was like something
(15:51):
about how she had, uh, you know, finally her two
packs a day and three martini lunches finally took her
die in an eighty seventh year or something like.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
That in our eighties.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
YEA, something that's nearly encourage.
Speaker 1 (16:07):

lunch to be eighty seven and happy. Hey, what's going
