Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Kelly Dash, good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's tomorrow's show today tgif tomorrow will be kicking off
the weekend, hooray, I'm ready for it.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Beautiful weather.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I think I have to look this up. Angela said
she is willing to go on a hike Saturday.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Oh, it'd be beautiful day to take a hike.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Now, I'm trying to find one that's not too hard.
If anybody's got any suggestions, would love to hear that.
And it doesn't have to be necessarily local per se,
meaning like in the Midlands.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
It could be.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I'm thinking probably more low country, because if you get
going towards Greenville, you start getting more of those mountains.
But maybe somebody and again or wherever, maybe you got
like some trails that you recommend it or not too hard,
maybe take about an hour to walk. That's what I'm
looking for. But not a lot of hills, because Angela
will not come back if there's a lot of hills.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I believe.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I'm not sure yet because Mommy hadn't say so, but
I believe we're taking little Sarah out to your door
a farm for the I get to see the pumpkin catapult.
I gotta see that They got all kind of fun
stuff going, a lot of fall festival things going on,
Halloween spoot taculars, haunted houses. It's gonna be a big
weekend for all the craziness that is Halloween as we
(01:14):
kick off. Apparently it's going to be like a week
of Halloween specials.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Oh and if my mother is listening, I don't know
if she is or she isn't. She listens, I guess
sporadically to the podcast. She listens very faithfully to the
to the actual radio show. I'm trying to look it
up now because Angela told me that they announced that
the movie that we were in are in is going
(01:41):
to be an Apple television show. Okay, so let's see. Yes,
Christmas Exander Point debuts November fifth on Apple. So that
was the big breaking news. Okay, so that's the Christmas update,
all right, November fifth, Apple TV. Christmas Exander Port not
starring Kelly Nash. Kelly Nash in a small role that
(02:05):
may or may not have been edited out of the
movie as a reporter. We'll see how that goes.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
You never know, you see the final product.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
That's right now. With that in mind, there is a
new lawsuit being launched at Hallmark. Now, I'm just going
to read to you from our blog post. If you
want to see more about it, it's on the blog
post at ninety seven five w sos dot com. The
now former casting director for Hallmark, a woman named Penny Perry,
filed lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court accusing Hallmark Channel
(02:36):
of age discrimination. Lisa Hamilton Day is the vice president
of Programming for Hallmark. This is according to her. The woman,
Penny Perry says that Lisa Hamilton Daily said, we have
to replace old people like Lacey Serbee. Is that how
(02:56):
you say her name? She is forty two years old? Okay,
nobody wants to see a fifty year old fall in love?
What she's two? We need some twenty somethings. Okay, Holly,
what's her name? Holly Robinson? Pete? Now, Holly Robinson? Just Pete?
Did just turn sixty?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
All right?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
No one wants her. She can't play leading roles anymore.
She could be cast as the mom of the star,
but she's far too old to be a star in
these productions any younger people. Now, this woman has been
the casting director for four hundred and fifty movies, so
(03:37):
she has seen a lot, and by the way, she
has also been fired because in the thing. Now, by
the way, she names some other people that are too
old according to him, Terry Hatcher too old, Kelly Martin
too old, Alison Sweeney too old. This woman wants all
of them fired at Hallmark Channel, the biggest stars because
they're too old. And then she when Penny said, no, oh,
(04:00):
I don't agree, she said, well, I guess you're too
old to see any of this clearly, and you're fired.
So now is that true that Hallmark, which is very popular,
would be better served to have twenty something year olds
falling in love as opposed to because what is the
(04:23):
typical Hallmark story. It's something about somebody's in a big town,
somebody's in a small town, and then somebody ends up
going to the other town. And typically what they do
now because the stars are older than when they were
fifteen years ago when they started shooting these back in
those days, they were single. Now for whatever, they don't
(04:45):
like divorce. So those people have been widowed. There's always
been a tragedy. We don't really know how the person died,
but they're grieving the passing of their spouse. And now
they're back in the small town visiting their parents, or
they've gone to the big town to get away from
it all, and they end up at a castle or something,
(05:06):
and then they fall in love with somebody else who,
for whatever reason, love has never worked out. And they're
also single. But they they're always in their forties, fifties,
and sixties. This casting director is saying, most people don't
want to see that. They'd much rather see a twenty
something year old.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
You would think the executive producer of these Hallmark movies
would have picked up on a little something. And I
guarantee you I've seen no more than three or four.
And I don't mean the whole thing. I just mean beginning,
maybe a little bit of the middle and the end.
But they're nearly as predictive as the Farmer's Almanac. I mean,
they could have told you years ago how this was
(05:43):
going to end. Everybody knows how it's going to end.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
That's right, it's like watching the Titanics.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
They would have spent a little more money hiring some
younger scriptwriters maybe, or some different scriptwriters, scriptwriters of any age.
You could throw in a wrinkle we didn't see coming
a twist at the end. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Well, the researchers apparently have followed that they don't want twists.
People like it.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
The researchers would have found that they liked the old people.
Everybody has been watching these things, that we have a
throng of teenagers who were starving for Hallmark movies.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
She's saying that it's that her research apparently is showing
that while they're still popular, they would get more viewers
if they were able to just bring it back to
the twenties, because like Lacey was twenty three when she's
starting her first Hallmark she's forty two. Now wow, she's
been in something like a hundred Hallmark movies.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Now wow, I guess.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
So if we brought it back to a twenty three
year old star and it was she just got out
of college, she's making her way in the world. Sure,
she's throwing her hat like Mary Tyler metch right, and
all of a sudden she finds love. But it's just
some sort of confusion there because maybe he's married, but
it turns out that's his sister and he's not. Oh,
and then it all works out at the end. Would
(06:55):
that be better than that's good, okay, And we got
to mix it up a little bit over Hallmark. Yeah,
we're not going to change the scripts though, because that's
why we have the board games and all those things
that we can play now you got you know. One
of the biggest fans of Hallmark is the Attorney General
Alan Wilson. Alan Wilson says that he likes to after
a day filled with crime and horror and whatever I mean,
(07:18):
he deals he sees the ugliest. It's like when it
gets to his desk. By the time he sees it,
it's already gone through law enforcement and all these other things.
This is the worst of the worst that South Carolina
has to offer.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Rape that sounds like a television show.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I'd watch, Yeah, rape murder, just like a Rolling Stones record.
They're just it's it's whole the desk of the Attorney
General and he says, so when I go home, I
just want to be a wash in something that is
so light and fluffy. And Hallmark flips the bill. He
he loves it, so he'll watch whatever the new ones are.
(08:00):
He has to knock the So what they got thirty
six new Hallmark Christmas movies this year? He'll watch all
thirty six in another fifteen or twenty that he's already
seen before.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I think most Morning Russia regulars would pretty much agree
with the fact that if you come down from a
hard day at work or whatever it is, or your
kid's school and all the things going on with your family,
trying to balance your check book and all those things,
you want to escape into something. And maybe she's right,
maybe we need to reset it here with some younger stars.
You could keep the reoccurring ones, you right, they could
be the aunt or the wise grandmother or whatever the
(08:31):
case may be. But as we invariably are going to
be torn between two lifestyles, big city and country life.
And don't you love the marshmallows in the Hohi Coco?
And look it's starting to snow.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yeah, the snow is always a big, big thing. And
there's always got to be like an almost kiss.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
We're just you're like a half a centimeter from each
other's lips, and then somebody walks in, or something happens,
a car crash outside.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
You don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Something's gonna prevent that first kiss.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Kat just pulled over the Christmas Tree or yeah, exactly,
you don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
But oh, it was almost there.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
But the formula is not changing. No, but should the
faces change? Are you tired of Lacy Shadbert or whatever
her name is.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
That's a good question. That we're in the height of
the Hallmark season. I have well, I say the height.
It's October twenty four. Have they started already?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Maybe you're watching that on you.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Just just to me, it just feels wrong when they
use the words old people and then the example is
forty two years too. That is an old person.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Now all right, we can deal with that.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Hey, tomorrow we're gonna kick it off, well not kick
it off, but at six point thirty we give another
chance to win. This will be your last opportunity of
the week to win Mega Maroney tickets for the show
coming to Charleston.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, that's exciting. And like you say, the answers are
already posted in the Morning Rest blog at ninety seven
five w sos dot com and uh perfidious.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I have not looked at the word pro r o.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
P r f per fidd perfidious.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I'm going to go with the Latin variation of profoundly grounded,
profoundly grounded without question credibility.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
You would be so good in that show that we
were talking about where because you say things that it
feels like you know it in your soul. Oh, perfidious.
That's that's from the Latin word to mean deeply grounded.
I would totally believe that it's not, but that sounds great.
It's if you are being deceitful or or treacherous. If
(10:46):
an event is treacherous, that's a perfidious event.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Americans are dealing with way too many perfidious events and
news coverages right now.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
We have a we have some perfidious candidates. They're very
deceit We won't get into all that in this podcast.
Your costume is portraying somebody who's perfidious.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Okay, all right, if you know the answer to that
question tomorrow on what you're talking about. At six thirty,
we're going to give you the number. It's say, No. Three, nine, seven, eight,
ninet two sixty seven? Are I going to change that
number between now and then? So I just gave you
the number. Now I'm just gonna kind of throw the
dice up in the air and say what number it
comes down.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
If you happen to be the correct caller.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
With the right answer, you win two tickets for Mega Maroney,
we're going to do all that to kick call Friday.
Thank god, tomorrow's Friday on the morning Rush
