Can It's day I can remember, David Can. Do you

got to be about one hundred right now.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Remember those guys that used to talk like this. I've
heard some of my stuff from way back. Yeah, those
were days.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yeah, Molly's got the day off today.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
I agree with that. I hope. I don't even hope
she's hearing us.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Hope. I think she's probably still. I think her plan
was to sleep in a little bit. Yeah, she's got
a little rest. She's got a big event tomorrow night.
It's her big safety event, and then we all have
an event tonight tonight. Yeah, so it's just all stacked
up and then and then we're giving away a truck
on Monday night, I know, talk about I looked at

(00:58):
my calendar and then I have on Sunday, I'm going
to a birthday party. So it's just bing bing bing
bing bing. Yeah, crazy busy stretch of time. And you
were here yesterday as well. I was here yesterday. That
was very nice. It was the it was very organic
as everything happened because Molly came in yesterday morning before

(01:20):
we even went on the air, and she said, all right,
here's the deal. I'll give you some money if I
can be off tomorrow. Oh that's a pretty good deal
for me. And it's like, well, you could just be off.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
So that happened before we get on the air, and
then when you came in around eight, then it was like, well, hey,
Molly's not here, how about you come in so then
and then here you are. I see.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
I know. I have to say, this is the first
time I've come into the podcast because I filled in
a week or two or somewhere in there.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I have not driven in in the dark. It all right.
I mean the last time I came in, Hey it's.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Bright and early five point fifteen, but hey, it's it's
changing and I I can't believe, Dave, I drove down
you know how quiet it is at five fi.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
I was complaining about the red lights immediately.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
I mean, I had.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
Forty years of it and one more day and I'm
complaining that I'm sitting there.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Like yeah, ten sec and you're waiting. And then there
are times when you're waiting at a red light and
there is no other try it's like, sure, can I
just go? Are we? Are we good people? I don't
want to be.

Speaker 5 (02:35):
No.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
I always say go ihad responsibly. Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
But the thing is that you know, even if you
did do that, you saved thirty seconds correct, about a minute,
just enough to go up to the next one and
slow down. Yeah. So what did you do after yesterday's show?
You had to be ready, ready for today.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I had to be ready for today. Yeah, I had yesterday.
I immediately went from here to the Department of Licensees.
Oh that's right, that's right, And I had all of
my correct paperwork this time.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
You know.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
The thing was, they said my doctor sent me the letter,
but it was a photo copy of it, and they
needed the actual one that had the little uh press
on the bottom.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Whatever.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
So I go there and I get my my brand
new placards.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
I know, it's it seemed like a small thing, but
well it's very important for you when you're anywhere. It is.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
It is very good. You get you get two of
them for two vehicles. Uh, and it's every five years
and my So I pulled off my old placard and
I went in just in case they needed to check
the numbers. It is sun dried and cracked, and I mean,
it's been hanging in the window for five years. When
they give you the brand new one. My other one

(03:59):
was like blue, they went to a dark blue. It's
beautiful to look at it.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
It is. Everybody can admire it, you know.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
And so I get all my paperwork. I rolled back to.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
The van, and it did dawn on me, I thought,
and this reminded me of a Seinfeld where they were
parking and they they they said, screw it, we're doing
disabled parking. They came back and there was an angry mob.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
I remember that angry mob.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
Well, it dawned on me when I came back to
my van that I had pulled the placard out so
somebody could.

Speaker 6 (04:33):
Stand there and say, who's this dude in the red
van parked right here?

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Blah blah blah.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
I don't see a placard. I don't see any markings whatsoever.
And then I thought, I'm sure they'd give me a break.
I'm rolling up in a wheelchair. So anyway, so how.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Long are you in the actual paperwork. Here's the placard go.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
I would say maybe five minutes, maybe it was. It
was pretty busy up there, maybe one person in line,
and yeah, that was very simple and bing bang bang,
and I'm on the board for another five years. Okay,
So that was my big that was my big specialty
yesterday and five minutes, yeah, just five minutes, and it

(05:18):
was uh. Trisha had gone out with a friend for lunch.
So she came back in the afternoon and I said,
I have something for you. And when I handed it
to her, her face being as well.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
She goes, oh, we got a new one.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
I can take a crappy old thing out of it, so,
you know, her a little a little fun there on
abashedly Dave, since I knew it was coming in this morning. Yeah,
I just took a power app. Sure, I said, I've
gotta got to take a power app in there.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
And then you had It's not it's not often in
your new world that you have to wake up at four.
I know it is quite and I do that earlier
in the afternoon.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
Actually set my alarm on the usually, you know, when
I was like you before, Yes, it's just on there
and you do it in Yeah, so setting it for
four twenty four seemed just outrageous.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
That did huh. But here's the deal. I knew you
will be out on.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
Assignment for the podcast last night, and you've got stories
on that, so I figured I should do some work
for the show. So I took a hit for you, Dave.
I decided to stay home last night on the couch
and watch football.

Speaker 6 (06:38):
You watched Hardball and r Seahawks Ady got a walk
off when if they say I did not see it all,
but I checked in enough on the prime and they're
on the road.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
It's a short week.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
I do see a lot of the ESPN bettings and
everything I heard was short week.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
They're on the road. It's a trap game.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Nobody's gonna blame them that they and they went down
and got that job done. Yeah, and it seemed comfortable, comfortable,
bing bang, Arizona, bing Ban, and we get the ball
back and two plays and the dude he missed one earlier, right, Look,

(07:25):
this one looked right down the middle, then it flared
and stayed in and there you go.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
The clock said triple zeros and twenty three to twenty. Yeah,
there's a lot about that game that I'll talk about,
but because I saw the very start of it, and
then we went out to dinner and then to the
show last night. The sun like it hot, so it
was halftime when we when the show started, and then

(07:53):
at intermission I checked and it was over, and it
was like, oh Jesus got closer? How did that get
twenty three to two? They were, you know, it was
like seventeen to six or something, and it just and then,
truth be told, I watched some of the game last night,
you know, out recorded right right right, and then I
watched the rest of it this morning. Hey, so something,

(08:16):
so I'm I'm updated, very updated. I don't know what
the chatter was with the what they call the desert
uniforms for the Cardinals. They had like brown speckles all
over there, and it's supposed to be like, oh, that's deserty.
It's like, no, it looks like others, like mud splatter
on your jerseys. It looked like a mud flop on

(08:37):
a semi So I think that's that was a fail.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
I can I appreciate the try, but yeah, you want
I mean if those would have had like sparkles on
them or something to shimmer I.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Don't or or maybe bigger brown spots like the sand
like I think they were going for a desert look,
oh sure it was just cactus and all. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, anyway, interesting on that, so I uh, yeah, I was.
I was basically last night saying, well, we got overtime. Okay,
we're gonna boom in there you go. So that was nice.
I do what Maybe I'll talk about this a little later,
Tricia and I have discovered uh uh, maybe you've seen
the promos for the new Jason Bateman and Jude Law.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
I've seen the promos. I'm frightened. I mean it's I
think you would.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Really like it, just in a nutshell. It's almost if
you remember Adam Sandler and Precious Jams.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Yeah yeah, uh.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Jude Law fine, upstanding, dressed in a suit like always. Uh.
His brother Jason Bateman, who looks like he just crawled
out of a dumpster, and he is a degenerate gambler
with a lot of problems.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Oh boy.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
They collectively own a restaurant. So that is in the backdrop.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
But it's and this is a series, right series, and.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
It's called Black Rabbit Rabbit Okay, And so we watched
two or three, and that is.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Right, and you're in. You're totally and totally.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
I had to keep my eye on Thursday night football
on my iPad while I was watching that for a
little bit, a little bit of the second quarter.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
But so anyway, that was my that was my Thursday.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
It was and it was almost an off day because
we were out Wednesday night.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
I know you were out last night and then Tomorrow
night and Saturday night and it's a busy stre Monday night. Sure. Yeah, yeah,
I left here and then we uh, let's see, I
got a few things done around the house. My plan
was to get get outside again and you know, take
the dog for a walk or maybe moth the yard,

(10:50):
do something. But the the the Synski people had come
and they put down something and they said, ef you
can wait there, like a fertilized something kind of like
the early fall treatment or whatever. So the the part
about you know, mowing the yard, that was off the board. Uh,

(11:13):
And I thought, well, I know it's gonna be a
late night. So I did and your powered app hey
got it, you got you gotta do what works. Yeah,
and then then then I got moving. Everything was great
and then Nadine came over and then we were off
to in Dakata. It's a restaurant down there in the
Perry district you're going after. Oh, is that the Italian one? No,

(11:35):
it's it's uh, it's Indian and Mexican. All right. It's
kind of a weird combination. I love, I've heard about it,
but but I had never been there. I think she
may have been there once before, but I'm not sure. So.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
And then and they also have like a Thursday street
fair thing going on in the Perry district, so parking
was crazy. So we had a premium driving down there.
You know, we finally get a place to park. We
go in and you know, it's kind of a small,
uh you know, long skinny, you know, restaurant. And we

(12:14):
get there and they say, oh, did you guys want
to sit inside or outside? It was like, where's your outside? Like?
What there? I don't even see where it could be right,
it's all the way at the end, and then the
back is like a really really nice outdoor like patio situation.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
So we said, well, we'll try the outside where you know,
tell us where it is. Oh, it's following us. So
we go back in and it's a perfect night. Last night,
it was just it was from you know what time
were we there maybe five thirty I guess or five
point fifteen I think, a reservation. So that was great,
and then we thought there was some heavy hitters coming

(12:54):
through there, some political leaders, and and then our friend Hudson,
she who she will be here in about an hour
or so, but she has someone in town from Minneapolis. Uh,
they're they're doing a story on Spokane. And then her boss,
so then they they came in. It's just like totally random.

(13:16):
That's our city, big work. And the whole patio was full,
and then when we were leaving the inside of the
restaurant was full too, and it's like we were just
happy that, you know, spoken on a Thursday night, there
things happening. We're a city on the move.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
We are and speaking on the weather. I had the
depth door open all night last night. It's just like,
well you couldn't tell that it was beautiful.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Yeah, it was a really nice, just a great night.
So then we we headed to the you know, well,
I still call it the Opera House, but for some
like it hot which is a best Broadway and she
has Nadine has season tickets and they're normally for Wednesday night.
Well she moved it because of our event Wednesday, Yes,

(14:05):
the one year. So we get there and we get
we got there kind of early, so that means that
means more wine for me. Hey, hey, I had the wine.
And then I'm kind of monitoring the Seahawk game and
I think it was was it seventeen to three and
a half room or something was like that. I felt
pretty just seemed comfortable and like okay, and knowing their defense,

(14:29):
I thought, you know, if they if they're up by
two touchdowns at halftime, we'll be fine. And then the
show was great, you know, two enthusiastic thumbs up. It's
very different than the movie. Is it bigger? That is
my only it's a different you know, casting is different

(14:49):
characters playing the you know, the main roles. But still
very fun. Quite a show. I think everybody enjoyed all that.
And that runs through Sunday. Yes, okay, good good, And
then the next show that they have is like a
special deal and it's I think it's called Stereophonic or

(15:11):
something something like that. But it is the one of
the most Tony Awards ever yeah, for one year, and
it's the story basically of Fleetwood Mac doing rumors album.
God yeah. So it's kind of like, wow, they don't
they don't say Fleetwood Mac, but it but it is.

(15:32):
It's kind of like that mini series that we all
watched the Oh yeah, that Riley Keyes who is Lisa
Marie Presley's daughter, Elvis' granddaughter, that was in the six
Remember it was a girl's name and something and I

(15:54):
had read that book and then we all watched the
series and that was fantastic. I'm guessing that this is
similar to that. But that's it's only a two day
run and I think it's the fourteenth and fifteenth of October,
so that's that's coming up and so and then so
that's kind of a special thing.

Speaker 3 (16:13):
And then yeah, they've got their you know, the whole
season lined out.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, so wow good. So yeah, it was so two
enthus Yeah, it's fun. I mean, I think if you
if you're you know, if you like those shows, you're
gonna love that. When it was just you know, it's
got all the interview was funny, you know, it's it's
you know, quite quite the thing.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Very Americana and hey, just backtrack a second. What did
you have to eat?

Speaker 2 (16:40):
What's an all? What's an entree like that? So that's
so we got the what do they call it rip
and dip or something. It's like this bread you know,
they're like chips, but it's more of a bread thing.
And this special cree sauce icy, very good, very that

(17:01):
was so great. And then we got a steak and
then the other was enchiladas and we kind of, oh
my mixed, I like that, but it was it was
really good. Everything very flavorful. The combination Mexican and Indian food,
so you get a lot of there's spices and then

(17:22):
there's a lot of the use of curry. A little crossover. Yeah,
but yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
I'm always very careful with the curry.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah I am.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
I'm not a huge like big spice, but you have
to be a you know, i know, summer summer more
than others.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Yeah, this was and it was weird because the for
the dip, like it's a dipping sauce that you put
the bread in. You you you taste it and it's like, oh, okay,
that's nothing, and then all of a sudden, oh, oh,
there's the spice. So the kind of comes a little
bit late, but very good, right, very good the whole thing.
I think they got a good thing going. I don't

(18:04):
know how long they've been open, but I've heard that
restaurant referenced many times and that was my first time there.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
Well, that will be on our our list, we or
our mainstay is South Perry Pizza.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
That's our Yeah, that's a great one.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
But I know you got the tap house over there,
and I love all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Yeah. In fact, when we were leaving and again, beautiful night,
we've been sitting out on the patio, we're leaving, we're
walking up Perry and I can't remember what restaurant we
looked in, but they had big screen TV and the
Seahawks had just scored a touchdown. I was like, oh,
we can watch through the window and okay, everything's good.
And then that was right about halftime, and then they

(18:46):
had they actually they had started the second half before
the Some Like It Hot show started, So that's how
I knew that. You know, they were into the third
quarter and I thought, Okay, this game's over, I know.
And then when I saw the final score, oh geez,
so last night. Then we get home, it's late. You know,
it's shows, shows late. And I was many many wines

(19:11):
in my body emote your respect for you being here
right now. Yes, So I was powering through. But then
I thought, okay, let me let me just you know,
see what happened with the Seahawks game. So I'm kind
of watching it, and I skipped toward the the end.
So I'm watching the it was like, it's the fourth
quarter with like four minutes to go in there, up
by two touchdowns. I know, well, man, if you really

(19:34):
were watching that in real time, you would think or seven,
I know. So then I watched the rest of it
this morning and one of the clips I got to
play this clip because I I did see it when
I was watching the game. It was the Seahawks receiver
and the and there was a penalty on him. It

(19:56):
was Seahawks actually score a touchdown, but it was called
back for a whole holding all right, right, And the
Seahawk receiver that was called for holding was not very
happy about it. And when the ref is, you know,
making the announcement and they've got their mics on and
everything and it's live, he's walking by the receiver and
he just says a string of bad words. Did pick

(20:16):
it up? Were well? Yeah, so where is here it is?
This is from last night with Al Michaels and Kirk
Herbstreet calling the action big.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Jackson Smith and Jigba, who didn't really need to make
the hold, was right.

Speaker 7 (20:32):
In front of the holding carrier. The care found the look.

Speaker 3 (20:42):
He did oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah beautiful.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
I think they were thrown off.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
Hi, yeah, well, usually by the time the ref gets out,
they're kind of the players have usually cooled down, y yeah,
or they're in there huddle.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
But man, yeah, he just happened to be walking by
and and the ref, the ref's face is like I
could just tell like he was not happy. Why bike
bike this is my time? I don't know because I
because it was on Amazon and you can't record Amazon correct,

(21:26):
So my my DVR must have picked it up from
the NFL network or something. Oh so that's why I'm watching.
So when I saw that they had no they it
was just totally dead. It wasn't even bleeped. It was
like there was nothing. The sound was just off for
that minute. So I think they cleaned it up. But

(21:46):
I think if if people saw it on Amazon, I
think they probably heard.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
I think live you know the B the b s. Yeah,
I do know. I mean, I guess for all night
workers and all that. You can't go on almost Amazon.
They have a replayed, but I'm certain it would be
muted on the If you want to go watch the
full game replay.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Here to Daisy Jones in the six Jones is the
how cute was she great? And that was that was great?
Multiple Texters have that. And then everybody's checking in about
the look on the ref's face. Yes, I'm gonna have
to check that out. Yeah, I think they they definitely cleaned.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
It up, but yeah, you could.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Tell what the what you can tell what the words were,
and there was a bunch of them.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
I'm sure the ref his face is all over memes
and everything like this is what happens when Hey, one
other real quick thing. Wait, maybe we can talk about
this later. But on the other channel, your Seattle Man
have clinched a buy in a number two seed. Look

(23:03):
at god what they do and just very every twenty
four years, every twenty four years. Yeah, and since you're
a number sky, Yeah, let's go back to the last
eighteen games.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Day, last eighteen games.

Speaker 3 (23:15):
Okay, first one Okay, they lost that, that's fine. Okay,
then they won ten in a row, then they lost one,
that's fine. Yeah, now they've won seven in a row.
They have won seventeen out of eighteen.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
That's that's the way you go into the playoff.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
Seventeen out of twenty. I guess they unbelievable. And it's
the Dodgers for the weekend. Who I believe clinched a playoff.
I don't know about their divisions, so.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
Yeah, they have something to play for Seattle, I think,
doesn't that they can't be the one seed? Can know?
Is there any scenario where they can be the one?
I do not believe, and I know there doesn't.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't believe they can fall and they're just let
every and I mean Boston and then the Yankees have
a lot to play for.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
It will be a fun weekend. My daughter's going to
the Dodger Series, which is going I think Saturday and
Sunday very nice, or maybe it's it's just Sunday, but
it's a you know, last game of the season and everything.
But it's nice to be in a situation where you
know it's it'll be a big game, of course, but

(24:24):
it's like, hey, we're already in let's rest our, guys,
let's be ready to Yeah, so now to enjoy with
the with the bye, when when would they play this here?
Wednesday or Thursday?

Speaker 3 (24:39):
And I'm not sure, but here I had to look
it up myself. I'm I was out of the loop
last summer. I was not aware. There is no more
one game wild card for anybody. It's best of three
Mariners in Toronto will have a bye, so you have
best of three. So however that works out, okay, best

(25:01):
of five Mariners their first series. Then it'll be two
best of seven's for division okay, or championship.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
In World series.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
So it's got to be mid or Wednesday or Thursday
with them, Yeah, because those teams will be playing Monday.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I would think yeah, And I would think baseball would
be kind of like, well, I don't know, but I know,
like with football, you know, you get the bye week,
and it's like, oh, it's so great that you got
a bye week, right because of you know, a lot
of injuries and health and stuff. But then there's also
times when teams are just so out of sync because

(25:41):
they've you know, like the Chiefs last year they had
they had clinched the spot. So then the last game
of the season they're playing all second string people. Then
they have the bye, and then they play later in
that weekend. So it was like two and a half
weeks off, and so you're you're kind of rusty about that.
So I don't know about how baseball as. If it's like, hey,

(26:04):
we're off for five or six days, I would think
that's good, right, you don't get too rusty, I would
think so.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
But then there's always you'll always hear the guys and
baseball is it's so dang long, and it's yeah, I mean,
you get a day off a week basically it's every day.
So you just you hope they're engine I mean, their
bodies have to feel great. I would think you just
hope they're mindset and all that. Hey, we're we can

(26:33):
still drain for quite a while, at least a couple
of weeks and hopefully longer. We do have oh October
fourth people, Okay, and here's the other thing. This weekend,
three more games can cal Rawley go from fifty nine
to sixty No, he's at six far sixty to sixty
one and break the American Right, Yeah, that's right, he's.

Speaker 2 (26:56):
I saw him. He had two the other night, right,
fifty nine sixties, so that'll be fun. The last time
the Mariners won the American League West Julio Rodriguez star
player for this year's team. Correct, he was eight months old?
Was he? Eag Row who is now retired. He was
Rookie of the year. I remember that.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
I got to see them a few times that year
in two thousand and one. That's the one they won
one hundred and sixteen games. I mean, anybody that went
to the game, of course they won. Yeah, it was awesome.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
It was crazy. Each Row can't I can't believe he
was a rookie. The first Harry Potter film was the
number one film in the country. Wow, Shrek was in theaters.
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (27:42):
That means we were playing smash Mount records all over.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
Oh yeah, two thousand and one. And then the iPod
had not even been released yet. And now the iPod
is just you know, it's coming gone. We don't. I know,
everything's on our phone integrated with everything else. Yeah, it was.
It's been a long time for them. That is a flashback.
Multiple people say that the Mariners could be a one seed,

(28:07):
could I.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
Guess if they sweep in Toronto. Wow, yeah, okay, I
was so happy we were locked at A two. I
didn't even do the math. I just said, hey, maybe.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
So I wonder what the I guess they would just
mean home field advantage if you played any any team then.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Right, if any longer reason, Well, if you're the one seed, yeah,
you would have home field for every uh every series?

Speaker 2 (28:40):
How about that? And that and a bad playoff baseball
is very exciting. So next week we'll have playoff baseball.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
I know, and even I as the baseball guy that
I mean, when it's a college and NFL's it's still
backdroppish for me.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
And you know.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
It's by watching all the Mariners it is. Oh yeah,
and it's fun to have a baseball only night. But man,
there's a lot of football out there.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Well the baseball will be a lot of baseball on
Tuesdays and Wednesdays, yes, and Fridays. That's where they kind
of rege them in there.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
And I do not blame MLB for trying to trying
to carve out a Niche.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Keep hope alive, keep baking live a few games. That's
pretty cool, So very very fun stuff. Coming on Seahawks.
Oh yeah, everything is great, big big Ryder Cup for
golf fans. Oh yeah, that starts today. That is all.

people were checking in earlier this morning and they say, hey,
it's the Breakfast Boys.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Remember, Well, yeah, that's the way it was started.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
That way. That was uh, I think we faded out
of that and what maybe two thousand, No, it was
it was later than that, right.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
I think it was was that old oneish oh yeah,
and then.

Speaker 2 (31:59):

But now and boy, I've come full circle right here,
Eric back again.

I know.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
Now I'm on the Dave and Molly Show. Yeah, yeah,
you're featuring Camp for Friday.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
I think it was we started. I know that we
started together like in.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
September, September of ninety two, right, yeah, so that we
are thirty three years.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Thirty three. That's a long time, Dave, that's crazy. I
know that is a long time. You know what.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
I might even have that on my calendar. Oh I do, Dave,
you could put this on your calendar. September eighth, nineteen
ninety two is the first time our two voices blended
on the same show. Wow on PERP. Yeah, and that
I remember it was. It was the day after Labor Day.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
Yeah, it was. I remember coming out of that that
weekend and that was the reset. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
I was like, well, let's just see how this goes.
And then it did.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
I thought it went pretty well. It did.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Yeah, I went very well on a couple of different
stations and bounced back and then back forth. There's several
different well, a couple of different buildings, for sure.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
I run into people all the time. Even yesterday we
parked when we went to the show last night, we
parked at the Davenport Grand and that's a perfect place.
It was, you know, it's like two spots. And there
was a woman in the elevator when we walked in,
and with no context, like she didn't say oh, hi,

(33:51):
Dave or anything like that. She just said, I thought
it was terrible what they did to you guys. I said, oh, oh, yes,
well yeah, it was know and and I said, well,
you know, we have the new show now, and she says, oh, yes,
I didn't get to hear it today, but she has
heard it. I missed the anniversary show, I think, is
what she said. And I said, well, it's kind of

(34:12):
like anniversary week. We're kind of you know, kind of
al there's all kinds of things. We had the big
event at the at mary Hill. I said, but it
wasn't like, you know, like a whole show of the
anniversary stuff.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
Just kind of hang out and have fun in that.
That sounds exactly. And I've mentioned several times my favorite
lab gal. Every time I go in for lab she
always says She usually had just a you know, hey,
how are you doing, and then just a boom, yeah,
I'm still not happy about that whole thing.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
So it's like cry, It's like great, I love it.
It's nice that people will you know, they they are
acknowledging it and yeah stuff. So it's still in reference
and do what you do. And it comes from all
different you know, genders, age groups. You know you're there.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
I know, it is surprising, it is surprising. I mentioned
a couple of weeks ago, my a wife went in
to get her refills at the pharmacy and the pharmacist said, yeah,
I've been list means since I was.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
The seventh grader. Like, come on, man, the guy's pharmacy.
Now it's junior high. Yeah, so it's been a while. Yeah,
it's some eras. And we were talking earlier about you know,
the Mariners won their division for the first time in
twenty four years, and then you look at that, Okay,
these are things that were happening twenty four years ago.

(35:43):
Oh you go back thirty three years, there was a
whole bunch of different things. Oh, unbelievable. You know, there
was no real internet, there's not I mean, there was
an Internet, of course, but it was like no one,
you know, most people were not on it, didn't even
know what it was.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
It was like novelty, look up an information thing at
that point.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
And then you think about all the changes that have
happened just in town from when we started, and we're
still here. We're still here, We're still here, you know.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
And I noticed driving downtown, which of course you do
every morning, and I get to do now and then uh,
since uh, since we got fired from the old show,
all the downtown streets that I.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
Used to drive on are beautiful.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
Now there was a stretch and every time I tell
Trish when we go under the bridge by Riverfront Park there,
I said, this is the stretch where the coffee would
literally jump out of.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
My cup.

Speaker 3 (36:44):
Potholes And now that's like glass going through there by
the new stadium and all this stuff down there.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
There's Yeah, there's a lot of road construction going on.
I think they're just trying to get it all done
before a lot of one land where you got to
watch out. I've mentioned this before, but I I try
to take a different route in every morning, you know,
so it's on the same all. I like that, and
a few of my different routes include me coming straight

(37:13):
down Maple and you come down to Maple, you know
it's four lanes and then it's two right, and then
they've got a section of it barricaded off. So then
it goes into one and they got cones laid out
and so but there's some there's some bumpy stretches there bumpy.

Speaker 3 (37:32):
The other day when I went to the I clinic,
which was kind of right down by Sacred Heart, and
I'm driving out of there, my eyes are dilated and
I don't have it was it was like I was
on the sun and then I turned made a little turn.
I usually go up Grand or I love to go
up Rockwood. I turned and that whole section is just

(37:54):
blocked off. It's like, uh, right by Sacred which I
will say, I don't know why the worst road in
America is right in front of Sacred Heart Hospital. But
I'm glad that is getting that is getting all smoothed out.
But yeah, there you just got to watch for the
signs and proceed.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
Tammy from Lewiston says that September eighth, nineteen ninety two, Yeah,
was her son's birthdayy so he was born on that
day as we are doing our first show together.

Speaker 3 (38:31):
That is that's a good benchmark we can say. However
old that kid is, that's that's when we started.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Hey, Lewiston, Idaho, that was my Hey, that was the
big city to go to for us. Palmery Pirate's day Lewiston.
How far is Palmaray from Lewison? Thirty miles? Oh yeah,
so you I mean you could either go to Walla
wall that's an hour or Lewiston thirty miles. So hey
was the weekend and he went to a movie.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Oh, you went to the big city. If you wanted
to go to a find a McDonald's, you had to
go to Loston. That's what you did. Yeah, and we did.
Oh how we did. I've spent a lot of time
in McDonald's when I was a kid. That was that
was the time. I remember this was in San Jose.
That the first time, being like independent enough, I would

(39:22):
walk with a friend. We had to have been nine
or ten years old. I can't believe my parents let
us do this, but we would walk to a McDonald's. Ah,
and that was a that was a big thing. And
it was just the two of us. It was me
and my friend and you know, I think we if
we had a dollar, you know, back then, you could
buy you know, hamburger, fries, could drink, and you could

(39:46):
you know, hang out there.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
And I think my very very first trip to McDonald's
we moved down to the Boise area and they had
one early seventies hamburger forty nine cents in my brain,
and I'm sure there was a fry in a in
a coke or a root bearer and that was the
kid meal. I think they called them before the happy Meal.

(40:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (40:10):
That was a pretty good deal, yeah, And then I
remember going to it must have been for the seventy
two Olympics because McDonald's had those Olympic cards, Like anytime
you bought something in McDonald's, you got an Olympic event
run if if a team USA won that event was

(40:32):
or if a American won that event, you got either
a burger or a big Mac. And then if it
was bronze, you got fries. And then if it was
or if a bronze or if it was silver, you
got fries. Bronze you got to drink, right, So I
remember those and so we collect all these cards and
we were going to McDonald's for free. Yeah, a lot

(40:54):
of so yeah, that was ten. We were walking to McDonald's.

Speaker 3 (40:58):
I remember they did that. I think it might have
been the seventy sixth Olympics. I remember the seventy two
I believe, not mistaken, Leon Spinks won me a big Mac.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Did Leon win a gold?

Speaker 8 (41:13):
Or?

Speaker 2 (41:13):
Is bird think they both? I think they both met
in boxing. One of them won.

Speaker 3 (41:18):
Me a big Mac because I remember having that card, going,
oh yeah, and you kind of knew this, you know,
obviously way before internet and everything.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
But there was always chatter like, oh, we're really good. Yeah,
our boxing team is good.

Speaker 3 (41:30):
We were always good track and fieldt good basketball.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Yeah. Although seventy two we didn't win the gold correct controversy,
but no way back, but another one. Carla on the
text line, Carla listened number eleven. September eighth, nineteen eighty two,
was her daughter's second birthday. Hey, look at all the
people that are born on September. There's nine eight and
we were we were radio born on that day. We

(41:57):
really you know you you had been with the station
in the and I was with the station and left
and left came back.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
It was kind of a renewal of like just a
different mix.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
Yeah, but I was together. I know that was the
September eighth. Yeah, at a long strange trip. It's I
wonder what.

Speaker 3 (42:15):
The first song you played at six am that that
morning was that I.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Don't remember, I know nor do We could probably could
biggest hits of ninety two.

Speaker 3 (42:26):
It was probably a Queen's rich rocker or something like that.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
Speaking of big hits, look at her, she's here. Hey,
Kate Hudson, Hi are you The studio got brighter and prettier? Yes?

Speaker 3 (43:49):
And in other words, as I've told David Molly, I
get paid to go to church is like, you know,
a couple times a month. Yeah, let snake that in.

Speaker 2 (44:02):
So we were reflecting on you know, the first show
that we did together was September eighth, nineteen ninety two.
Ninety Wow, Where were you in ninety two?

Speaker 5 (44:14):
I was a senior at Seldotna High School in Seldanta, Alaska.
Who and I was making the choice at that time
do you go to Gonzaga University? And that's what brought
me here?

Speaker 2 (44:26):
And did you know much about Spokeana?

Speaker 5 (44:28):
I knew nothing really and back then I had a
single parent, so we didn't have any money, Like college
tours were not a thing, right, So I just showed
up for fresh orientation in August and thought, I remember thinking,
I hope I like it here because I'm stuck here
for four years. And I loved it.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
Yeah, how big is Is it Saltalta?

Speaker 5 (44:50):
Yeah? I think there's about four thousand people there.

Speaker 3 (44:53):
So did you feel like a tiny little fish in
a big pond down here?

Speaker 5 (44:57):
Like, oh my gosh, I loved it good. It just
that's what I love about Spokane and why I've stayed
is because it has everything I need. But it's not
over It doesn't feel overwhelming.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Yeah, it's not so natural, right, but it's what what
what took you to Gonzaga because they were not really
on the map. That was way before the big basketball
run where yeah, you now everybody in America knows about
Gonzaga brand name.

Speaker 5 (45:25):
Now yeah you know I had. You know, when you
take your SATs and then you start getting inundated with
college brochures and they send you stuff, and Gonzaga sent
something and I thought, Gonziga, what is this? And I
threw it away and I came home from school the
next day my mom had pulled it out of the
trash and put it on my pillow and said, this

(45:47):
sounds like a really great school.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (45:49):
And when they sent a recruiter up and so I thought, oh,
I'll skip class so I can not go to class. Yeah,
go to the deal I didn't really care about what
they were going to talk about. I just thought, oh,
this is a free pass out of class.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
Kind of like a job type feeling.

Speaker 5 (46:03):
Yeah, And then they started talking this recruiter about the
city and all the things to do in the school,
and I thought, well, this sounds fun.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Had you ever been to Spokane before? No? Wow, Nope,
new city, new school, and you're what eighteen years old? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (46:21):
My good night unseen and I liked I liked it
because I stayed.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
And now you are a cheerleader for Spokane. I mean,
you're bringing people in. I was telling Ken earlier. We
ran into you last night doing your work, I know.

Speaker 5 (46:36):
Yeah. I had a journalist with me, Todd Walker. He
is fantastic and he the first thing he said after
he got recognized by someone at the airport because he
was on TV in Minneapolis he did news, he said,
your city is so clean. I love it here, And

(46:57):
so I thought, I love to hear these things.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
Yeah, little doors, Yeah, I know, that's awesome.

Speaker 5 (47:03):
You always worry, you know sometimes we get a bad rap.

Speaker 2 (47:06):
Well, sure, and you know, when you live here, we
know the good and bad, but there's so much more good.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
I know, it's fun for me to see the city
through the eyes of someone who's never been here. So
a lot of times, you know, you walk into the
park and they see the falls and their eyes get
big and they are just they really blown away.

Speaker 3 (47:26):
They don't take it for granted. And that park is
just a jam in the river.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
Of course.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
Yep, we ran that. We rode the sky ride yesterday and.

Speaker 2 (47:36):
What a perfect day for that.

Speaker 5 (47:37):
It was, Yeah, except the smoke kind of rolled in.
It was beautiful.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
I didn't notice that until late in the afternoon when
we you know, we sat outside. Yeah, and the Hey,
what did you guys order last night?

Speaker 5 (47:48):
We ordered a bunch of plates and shared them. So
we got the tiketos, which I loved. We got the
RiPP and dip. Yes, that stuff was good.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
It was really good with the sauce. Yeah, you dipped
the sad even. We even got more chips for the sauce,
so did Yeah, it was really good.

Speaker 5 (48:07):
Yeah. We got the three amigos, the the cheese, siguawk,
and the salsa. Oh, also good. We got something. Oh,
we got the the curried cauliflower, which was very spicy.
I got a little sweaty eating that.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
So yeah, she shut the place down. How long? How
long were you guys there?

Speaker 5 (48:29):
I think we left at seven.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
So yeah, you were there a long time.

Speaker 9 (48:34):
We raged, Oh, rage how many people were selling the
patio because when I when we left, it was like
there was hopping and even the the you know, walking
through the restaurant to leave, it was very busy.

Speaker 5 (48:47):
That warms my heart. I think it was us and
there was another table outside, but there were tables full
on the inside.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
Okay, And then did you guys do anything after? Was that?

Speaker 5 (48:56):
That was the He flew in yesterday. So I always
feel for these journalists, especially when they're coming from the
other side of the country. So we called it a night.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
Yeah, well he's body clock times.

Speaker 5 (49:08):
Yeah he was. I'm sure he was tight.

Speaker 2 (49:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:12):
And you know, when you fly, you're up at three
am and getting to the airports, you can stand at
security for eight hours.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
And so is he here all weekend?

Speaker 5 (49:21):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (49:21):
He going to events? I'm not sure.

Speaker 5 (49:24):
As soon as I leave here, we're going to go
ziplining at my commoon. He excited about that, and then
we're I flew him in specifically for the Pacific Northwest
Food and Wine Festival.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
I've heard about so we're.

Speaker 5 (49:39):
Gonna it's all sold out, otherwise I would be plugging it.
But all the events are sold out, and tonight is
the grand Tasting at the Davenport Grand, so yeah, it
should be fun. Wow, I'm going to do that. And
then tomorrow he is booked solid all day at the Davenport.
He's doing all of the events, all of the food
and wine fest events, which include yoga on the rooftop.

(50:02):
He's getting a facial down in the spa, all sorts
of stuff. And then there's the big six course dinner
tomorrow night that will be in so.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
Now he and then he'll he'll write a piece on
his adventures. And where will we see that?

Speaker 5 (50:17):
I don't know. That's the that's the sixty nine million
dollar question or whatever, sixty four million dollars.

Speaker 2 (50:24):
But he goes back and brings all of Minnesota.

Speaker 5 (50:27):
To Spokane exactly because we do have a direct flight
from Minnesota Spokane. So that's one of our direct flight
markets that we like to target. But he'll get he'll
get his story sold somewhere. It'll show up, okay. But yeah,
he writes for Amtrak magazines, all sorts of lifestyle magazines
in Minneapolis, so it'll show up somewhere. But yeah, that's

(50:51):
the way it works now in this world. There aren't
really dedicated newsrooms anymore. Everyone's freelance. Yeah, So they come
and they all low things, and then it's up to
them to sell the stories to contract. Yeah. So it's Yeah,
that's the pressure that I would not want if I
were a writer, thinking, oh my gosh, what if I
can't get anyone to pick up the story. And now

(51:11):
I've just had this free trip to a city where
they're hosting me and they're paying for things, and like,
I got to make.

Speaker 2 (51:17):
Good on my well. And it's kind of two different
parts of your brain too. You've got to be creative
and you've got to write the stuff, and then you've
got to become a salesperson to sell your work exactly. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (51:29):
So but he also does he's a broadcast journalist as well,
so he worked at the Fox station in Minneapolis, so
he'll probably he does things like I do, where he
goes on and talks about stuff going on and cool
things he's seen and travel stuff. So he'll talk about
us over in Minneapolis.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Yeah, we chatter about Spokane city on the rise.

Speaker 5 (51:51):
We are a city on the rise.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
Yeah, YEAHO was the city on the on the rise,
the city on the move.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
Move. Well, we Molly keeps trying to push this Pasco,
which you.

Speaker 5 (52:06):
Know, I like Pasco. I think it's a city on
the right.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
I've lived here for forty years.

Speaker 3 (52:12):
I still don't know which city I'm in when I
go down. I'm just on a bridge somewhere going on
the right road.

Speaker 2 (52:19):
Okay, there you go.

Speaker 5 (52:21):
Well, stop in Pasco because it's lovely.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Yeah. I always stopped for the mercantile, you know. Oh yeah, yeah,
gotta be that fantastic. It's always that's always a must.

Speaker 5 (52:34):
I have not stopped there ever, so, oh.

Speaker 2 (52:38):
My god, that is almost a crime. I wife ever
guess that.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
My wife goes to Wall Wall all the time. And
on the way back, the best text ever is I've got.

Speaker 2 (52:49):
Dinner in it all on the way I love it.
Their sauces are great, not all fresh produce.

Speaker 5 (52:55):
And you know, okay, it's kind of neast time i'm there.
Maybe we take a road trip.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
It's almost like a fair. They've got event's going on.
I don't know what all goes on there. Yeah, they've
got a pretty good business going to what's happening in
our town this weekend?

Speaker 5 (53:10):
A lot? Yeah, The Fall Festival of Homes is going
on this weekend. That's where you can go tour like
all the fancy homes. Oh see all the things that
you'll never have. That's how I look.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
The dream home. Is it a neighborhood or.

Speaker 5 (53:27):
Is it it's scattered all over? Yeah, so I have
to check out the website to.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
See they're going specific area.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
And I think the price ranges from like four hundred
thousand dollars homes to three million dollar homes.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
You know when you have a point in there.

Speaker 5 (53:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so you choose. But it's fun to
look like looking at homes. Sure, we also have some
like it hot.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
Did you see it? Yes last night? Yes, sir? It
was fun. Yeah, it was very fun. And I didn't
I saw them movie, you know buck in Film's class
probably high school or college, I can't remember, and maybe
one other time, and it's a it's a fun movie too.
This it was a different kind of take on that,
but it still worked. It was funny, it was charming.

Speaker 5 (54:14):
There were some funny lines. Yeah, and I loved all
the tap dancing.

Speaker 2 (54:17):
Yeah. My mom was a dance teacher. So I've you know,
hearing the clicking of the heels again. It was like, oh,
I remember. So it was very fun. Yeah, and a
and a happy crowd.

Speaker 5 (54:35):
Ye did you ever tap dance?

Speaker 2 (54:37):
No? No, but not too late. My mom would always
she would always say, you know, the ballet will really
help you with sports. And I was, you know, it's
it's your mom and it's ballet, and it's like, no,
I'm not doing that. And then as I got older,
like high school of junior senior year, some of the
football players on my team were coming to my house

(54:59):
for a string after I had left. I had moved
here to go to school, and I would go back
in the summers and everything, and there were always that
was a thing that kind of grew guys doing ballet,
not to be in the ballet world, but to help
them with sports. It was a really big thing for
once and just all that.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
And then you see yeah, NFL players that are doing that,
and it's like, my goodness.

Speaker 5 (55:27):
It's impressive ballerinas. Yeah, because you know, taking bar classes.
I just think, wow, how ballerinas do this? Like using
tiny little muscles.

Speaker 2 (55:36):
That you might know. So yeah, but there were always times.
I've told the story when I the first time I
saw grease and I got into trouble because I was,
you know, I just you know, got my license and
I'm driving. I had friends in the back seat and
they had to move all of the ballet shoes that

(55:57):
were in the back seat of the company. It was
my mom's card and have a car, so you know,
and so we're going to that and then I I
was it was in the it was the Vancouver Mall
theaters and you know how malls are. It's kind of
like the Valley Mall where there's like roads that are
around the mall and so parking. You know, I'm a
new driver. I got all my friends in the back

(56:19):
and we're you know, being obnoxious kids. And I didn't
really partake in the road rules. I'm like going in
and out and just you know, are you cross? And
I got pulled over and it was not a cop.
It was like a mall security person. And I was
just terrified and and the guy was like, you know,

(56:42):
being mister tough guy and everything, and I'm so rattled.
I'm so nervous, you know. The guy's yelling at me basically,
and then when he leaves and I'm like scared. You know.
I got my hands at ten and two and I
was like, I just want to get out of here.
And then all my friends are like, that guy was nothing.
He can't do anything. Do you come on, don't let
it bother you. And it's like, well, I was a rat.

(57:04):
That was a mall car. That was enough that I
was scared straight, you know, And I was like, okay,
I'm going to be a good driver. Tap shoes in
the back. And there's probably two tues back there too.
I don't know my mom, that's how she operated and
would just throw the stuff in the car and yeah.

Speaker 5 (57:25):
Anyway, you know, really missed an opportunity.

Speaker 2 (57:30):
With the dance I did. I guess I did.

Speaker 5 (57:32):
Yeah, your mom was onto something. Okay, So we've got
some like it hot going through Sunday. Tickets are still available.
That's the first Interstance Center for the arts. We also
have the Greek Festival going on this weekend, which is
eighty nine years they've been doing this, so oh wow.
The Rite of Passage in the Fall and Spokane and
where is that? This is a Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church,

(57:53):
which is that beautiful church over by North Central High
School on Rushing.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Oh yes, okay, yeah.

Speaker 5 (58:00):
Yeah, they do this every year and it's Greek food,
it's Greek culture, music, dancing, all the things. Sometimes I
just like to get the food to go when I
take it home, and it's a delight, but you could
stay and hang out and immerse yourself in Greek culture.

Speaker 2 (58:14):
Is that starting today? Then? Is that? Yes?

Speaker 5 (58:16):
It's going on today and tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (58:18):
Okay, I know they will have bokklova there.

Speaker 5 (58:22):
Is so good. And they also the orso pasta that
they make. I try to mimic it and I cannot
make it taste as good. So whatever they do to
that orzo, it's a secret. It's a secret, and I
want to know because I cannot replicate it in my kitchen.
But that's probably a me problem, sure, But yeah, go

(58:46):
check it out. You can do some dancing. We also
have the Spokane Jazz Orchestra kicking off their season. They've
been performing for forty nine years and they'll be at
the Myrtle Woltson Performing Arts Center at Gonzaga University campus.
They are fun to watch. I don't know if you've
ever seen their one of their concerts, but they're fantastic

(59:07):
and they're all volunteers. I think they all, you know,
just come together and jam and it's fantastic. And they'll
have Tomorrow they're doing the swing of Oscar Peterson with
pianist Brent Edstrom, who is.

Speaker 2 (59:20):
He's very good.

Speaker 5 (59:21):
He's very Oh yeah he is.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Yeah, I bet he is. And I couldn't speak.

Speaker 3 (59:28):
I have been in the Martin Wolfson a couple of times.
That's a beautiful little venue on the campus. I love
that they didn't have that one. You they didn't have
a lot of back in the day.

Speaker 5 (59:42):
I feel like I went to Gunzagaport before it was cool,
and I think that gives me some street credit.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
Oh yeah, you may have.

Speaker 5 (59:50):
It was all me. And then we have Old Dominion.
They're playing at Northern Quest tomorrow. Yes, that should be
a great con.

Speaker 2 (59:58):
That's a big one. I have some friends going to that,
and that was one like when the schedule came out,
of all the concerts, they were locked in on that.
They were very excited for them. So, yeah, it should
be a perfect night tomorrow night. It'll be beautiful. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
Yeah, So we've got those big things going on. And
then up at green Bluff, their big Fall Festival is
kicking off this weekend as well. It runs through the
end of October, so you've got time. But this is
this is green Bluff's moment to shine. Yeah, this is
when they really shine.

Speaker 3 (01:00:28):
Heard several several people mentioned that that's their weekend thing.

Speaker 5 (01:00:32):
It is. Yeah, there's lots of stuff going on. And
then across the street over at Brick West they're doing
their big pumpkin fest.

Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
I saw the big truck out there.

Speaker 5 (01:00:41):
They deliver all those pumpkins and then it's just a
whole thing. So you don't have to drive to go
get your pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
No, I walk over for igo, leave for home. Love
that so.

Speaker 5 (01:00:52):
Across the street here's my pro tip. Oh and Brick
West might get mad, but if you wait until the
very end of October, they always have leftover pumpkins and
they're pretty much like just please take them.

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
Oh yeah, well it looks like they've got i mean,
not hundreds, like thousands. I mean, it's it's crazy. Where
are they getting all these pumpkins? I don't know, Yeah,
where do they grow? Moses? Like, I'm not sure. I
think they have pumpkin patches here, but it's yeah, you know,
but but stores are selling I mean green Bluff obviously.

(01:01:26):
The amount of pumpkins that people use, an amazing amount
of pumpkins. And then November first, they're all scattered all
over the streets, I know, at the.

Speaker 5 (01:01:35):
End of at the bottom of Freer.

Speaker 3 (01:01:37):
Yes, but Dave, we do have a year round. I
know you only think it's November.

Speaker 2 (01:01:43):
We have. Pumpkin pie only exists in October. It's only Thanksgiving.

Speaker 5 (01:01:49):
Yeah, so fun fact, I think pumpkin pie is gross.

Speaker 7 (01:01:55):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
I'm not against you on that. I don't. I think
it's overrated. That's my thing. I mean, I'm good for
a slice of pumpkin pie one a year and if
I miss it, it's not the worst thing.

Speaker 3 (01:02:06):
I'm kind of a once a year guy. But every
time I have pumpkin pie, say why don't I have
this every day?

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
I believe it's a good food. Although I usually have
a side of pumpkin pie with my whipped cream.

Speaker 2 (01:02:21):
That's why I was gonna say, you always that is
so many.

Speaker 5 (01:02:27):
Yeah, I love it. Yeah, I'm not a pumpkin pie person.
We also have the Just Between Friends sale going on
at the fairground site. That's always a big deal. The velocity.
You're playing downtown. Yeah, there's lots going on. She's going
to be busy and the weather's going to beautiful. Tomorrow

(01:02:48):
is a free state park day, so you can go
and park for free. You don't need your Discover pass,
so you can go Mount Spoken or Riverside State Park.

Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
And how they get you, They hook you, I know,
they get you go for the free one and.

Speaker 3 (01:03:03):
Then yeah on a beautiful weekend. Yeah, and go wrong
with that.

Speaker 2 (01:03:07):
You know.

Speaker 5 (01:03:08):
That's how my son ended up in karate. They his
karate dojo does a thing every year through spooking public
schools where they're like, you know, one month free if
you do this, and so we did it, and then
he was hooked.

Speaker 3 (01:03:21):
And now that's they still do.

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
This is off topic, but do they still do the
like for fourth graders it's free skiing? Is that a
thing to deal with? That that? I remember that?

Speaker 3 (01:03:35):
And uh my youngest got hooked on skime and you know,
and then they do the rating silverwood thing and all that.
Man the kids and kids can cash in. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:03:50):
Nice, No, they don't think they do that. That doesn't
sound familiar to me.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
Sam Adams has joined US now and he's he's already
heard all this, right, don't you you do the thing
with it?

Speaker 7 (01:04:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:04:01):
We do, Yeah, we do. I pick out four main
events because I don't have as much time on the
TV as I get to have with you.

Speaker 2 (01:04:09):
I'm trying to untangle some chords here, Sol, What have
I done wrong here?

Speaker 3 (01:04:15):
My son calls that a rats nest. He always says, Dad,
you got a rats NAT's back here?

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
I do.

Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
Let me.

Speaker 2 (01:04:23):
Go. Oh, there you go. Everything is fine now, every
everything is fine.

Speaker 5 (01:04:32):
So I'm excited about the new studio.

Speaker 2 (01:04:34):
Yeah, yeah, we're in fact, we were down there was
that Wednesday. I guess we had a meeting down there
with all the people that are making it all kind
of come together and it's it's more.

Speaker 5 (01:04:46):
Intimate, yes, but it looks nice.

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
Yeah. It's very high tech, yes, with.

Speaker 3 (01:04:53):
Video options and all that kind of different cameras and
cool stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:04:57):
Everybody will be able to see the rats nests.

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Yes, when they when they see me untangling chords, it'll say, oh,
that's what he's doing. How do your Christmas lights look?

Speaker 5 (01:05:08):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Well, when I first set them up, it's a lot
like this. Okay, So I have a lot of practice
on untangling things and then and then every year when
I when I take down the Christmas lights, I always
say I'm going to do a better job. So next
year when I hang them up, it's going to be
and it never is. It's always right.

Speaker 10 (01:05:27):
I need to teach you the it's called the over under.
There's an over under method. This isn't a gambling term.
Over under. There's an over under method. If you could
use it for hoses, cable Christmas lights.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
For the wrapping, Yeah, for the cords. Yeah, there's a
way to do it.

Speaker 10 (01:05:43):
Yeah, the over under technique, the over under technique. They
teach it to you in broadcast college that they do.
I remember one time we were having a we were
having an emergency. We're trying to get to a live
shot in Denver, I believe, and one of one of
our interns was student at the time during Gonzaga's run
in the NCAA tournament, and we were running because we

(01:06:06):
couldn't get a signal, and I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:06:07):
Like, everybody, break down your gear. We're gonna go down
two blocks. There's a clear signal. Follow me.

Speaker 10 (01:06:13):
The photographers grabbing the tripod and folding it, folding it
and collapsing it in turns grabbing a bag and then
I'm running with the microphone and stuff and the camera.
And then we get to the new site and everybody's
that the camera's up, tripod is up.

Speaker 2 (01:06:30):
I've got the microphone.

Speaker 10 (01:06:31):
And then the intern he just looks at me with
his face of defeat. And he looks at me and goes, Sam,
I have to tell you something. I'm like, what he goes,
I never learned the over under.

Speaker 2 (01:06:45):
And I didn't have time. I'm like, just give me
the rats nest. We'll do it with the rats nest.
That is hilarious. Yeah, you know, we were learning from
this from Kate. But Kate was at Gonzaga before Gonzaga
was famous. Yeah, early nineties, early nineties, just before yeh.
She she came. She had never even been to Spokane

(01:07:09):
and gets enrolled at Gonzaga. So she shows up, you know,
for orientation. It's always like the week before whatever. So
not only a new new college, but new town faith.

Speaker 5 (01:07:21):
I know it really was.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
It's only because her mom took the invite out of
the garbage I did.

Speaker 5 (01:07:29):
I was like, I've never heard of this. I do
not know what.

Speaker 3 (01:07:31):
She said, what's Gonziga?

Speaker 2 (01:07:35):
And it was meant to be it was.

Speaker 11 (01:07:37):
Yeah, and now she's an ambassador for for our city
telling everybody else about Gonziga, ground level up, that's the greatest,
and all about Spokane.

Speaker 5 (01:07:47):
I knew how to pronounce Spokane. I will give myself that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:51):
When I remember leaving Texas, I'd been here before, worked here,
then went to Texas for a couple of years, and
when I was coming back the you know back then,
you had to tell the people that I'm giving my
two weeks notice, I'm you know, going to going back
to Spokane. Yeah, no, tell me about Spokane. What is that?
Is it right by Seattle? And is always those you know,

(01:08:15):
standard questions that we've all dealt with over the years,
Like people don't know that we are not only way
across the state, but we're way different. It's a totally
different thing. They always thought Spokane was like a suburb
of Seattle. So oh, it's like a spell View and
Kirkland and Spokane and they're all right in there over there. Yeah, yeah,

(01:08:38):
we heard that comment a lot. Sure.

Speaker 5 (01:08:41):
Well, and that's where visit Spokane comes in. We're trying
to build awareness and get people to understand that we
are not a suburb of Seattle.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
No, correct, we are we are big, we.

Speaker 5 (01:08:50):
Are strong, we are we're the second largest city in
the state.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
Yes, we are. Take that Tacoma. Yeah, and they don't
like that very much. And we smell better than they do.

Speaker 10 (01:09:01):
Depend on what you like your town to smell like, right,
But we don't have the Tacoma aroma though.

Speaker 2 (01:09:06):
That's what they say, That's what we've heard. What are
you doing this weekend? Sam? You know what?

Speaker 10 (01:09:12):
I think My wife and I are going to go
to a Greek fest this afternoon.

Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
We were just talking about that that.

Speaker 10 (01:09:18):
Yeah, it's just a tradition. We love it, really, We
love the food, we love the atmosphere, we love the
line honestly, and talking with people, hanging out and join
the music.

Speaker 2 (01:09:27):
Yeah, I love it. I'm a big fan. How many
times have you gone?

Speaker 10 (01:09:30):
Gosh, I mean this would probably be a good I'm
guessing six years.

Speaker 2 (01:09:35):
In a row or something like that.

Speaker 10 (01:09:36):
Yes, yeah, okay, Yeah, And it was nice too because
before my son would be playing fall baseball and sometimes
that would be you know, over either North Central or
Rogers and wasn't too far away, so we would just
like in between games we would just drive over there
and yeah, it was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
That's a thing. Yeah. And would you say thirty nine
years that's oh eighty nine. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 5 (01:10:03):
Yeah, you've been doing this a while, and I.

Speaker 10 (01:10:06):
Feel like they kind of tweak it a little bit
every at a little bit every time, right, yeah, I
think so.

Speaker 5 (01:10:10):
Yeah. The only thing that I don't think they do
the plate throwing. You know, there's a Greek restaurant in Portland.
I forget what it's called, but you can throw the
plate at the fireplace.

Speaker 2 (01:10:22):
I want one of those. It's like a glass plate.

Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
The regular Wow is that after dinner you just say
I'm dune?

Speaker 2 (01:10:33):
Yeah, I guess I don't. Or if you don't like
the food just in there garbage, well, trust me, you'll
love the food here. It's really good. Yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 3 (01:10:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:10:43):
And we used to have a reporter of Greek ascent
descent here working at KHQ, and so she was correcting
me on some of the pronunciations too.

Speaker 2 (01:10:54):
Oh yeah, yeah, I just got to make sure you know,
of course it's a Euro, it's not a Gyro.

Speaker 10 (01:11:00):
But then there are other just just to clarify it.
And and trust me, I didn't know that before, but
it was the other ones like what what what are
the there's like jazekee and it helped me out here
yea that deserves And when I said baklava and she
was like, it's not what is it? I don't remember

(01:11:26):
she said it different. It was like lava clava.

Speaker 5 (01:11:30):
However it was spana copeda. I don't think I'm pronouncing
it correctly.

Speaker 3 (01:11:34):
But it's kind of like when you're trying to pronounce
your prescription and then the doctor says that completely different.

Speaker 2 (01:11:41):
True.

Speaker 5 (01:11:47):
Maybe you can learn.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
Well, I have to.

Speaker 10 (01:11:50):
I have to be careful about some of the things
I'm saying right now based upon the party experience.

Speaker 2 (01:11:55):
I had a couple of days ago that the celebration.
Oh yeah, and thank you for coming. I had a
great time. He was, Okay, I know you were there
at the beginning and yeah, yeah, but I'm a little
gun shy now of what is one of your one
of your listeners, uh said, And I might be loosely

(01:12:17):
quoting this, he said, So are you as dumb really
as as you sound on the radio? What who was that? Revealed?
My sorry goodness, but you said he yes, that narrows
it down, all right, boy, that's not very nice. But
I think it was. I think I'm not sure. Was

(01:12:39):
it kevinbor Okay, take him off us. I think they
meant it as like, are you acting? But still?

Speaker 10 (01:12:50):
I mean, I will tell you I focus more on,
you know, negative interactions with my wife and not the positive.
As far as life choice, I think we all do sure, right,
because who cares about the nice things you do?

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):
That?

Speaker 2 (01:13:03):
It's like, that's not comedy. You want you want the
awkward moments.

Speaker 10 (01:13:07):
Sure, so they actually said, yeah, are you really as
dumb as you said the radio?

Speaker 2 (01:13:14):
Well, I'm I'm sorry that our listener. No, I took
it in the spirit as it was intended. I'm sure
it was. Were they drunk?

Speaker 10 (01:13:21):
No, No, it felt like it was just a no
filter kind of thing. Oh yeah, hey, look live life,
no filter.

Speaker 2 (01:13:29):
I like blunting this. But you still had a good time.
I had a great time. I don't.

Speaker 10 (01:13:33):
That's not the takeaway though. That is literally the first
thing I spoke about with my wife on the way out.

Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
Wow, but we had a great time. No, we had
a fantastic time.

Speaker 10 (01:13:40):
What a crowd got to got to meet all your
your faithful listeners and viewers and bombers.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
Yeah, yeah, I thought that was the perfect size room too,
because it was it was busy, but it wasn't like
you know, no, we weren't overwhelmed, No, and there's too
much chaos, and it was really I think we left
there probably about eight fifteen, which is you know, perfect, Yeah,
and it was it had thinned out enough, and I thought, well,
that's that's a good that's a good amount of time.

(01:14:08):
And you know, we didn't we didn't leave while people
were still we shut the place down. Yeah, you can't
leave your party, Yeah, you can't leave too early. And
that's about I left a little bit before that.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
And then eight to fifteen is that when Cali showed up.
I was telling us I think I told you it's
like the deal was that Cli had some friends over
and so she, you know, on the spot, I just said, well,
we want you to come, you know, to the thing.
She says, well, I'll be honest, I'm probably not coming.

(01:14:44):
And she said, wouldn't that be isn't that better than saying, oh,
I might be there knowing that no? Yeah, And so
then I thought I thought there was still a chance
I was holding out hope. So we started talking about
this on the air. And Molly gave me one hundred
to one odds for a dollar bet. So I'm risking
a dollar and then but I can win one hundred hey.

(01:15:06):
And then Sam heard about that and he jumped in
on that and he gave me a five dollar bet
with ten to one odds. Oh my gosh, So I
could have won one hundred and fifty dollars. No, I
stole you five dollars too. Oh, that's why you brought
it up. That's why you Yeah, that's his money. Oh
so I And there was there was an agreement that

(01:15:27):
there would be no cahoots, like there wouldn't be like, hey, Clie,
you come here, I'll split the money with you or whatever.
But I did. I self reported, and I sent her
a text in the afternoon and I just said, hey,
you know, no pressure, but just so you know, if
you show up, I get one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 5 (01:15:44):
I know.

Speaker 2 (01:15:45):
And so the whole night everybody was asking, you know,
at the party, to say, well, is she coming? Is
she coming? I said, I was like the Charlie Brown
and the Great Pumpkin thing. It's like, I believe it's
going to happen. Everybody else is mocking and taunting and heckling,
and they they know it's never gonna happen. But I
was still I was still a believer mehile waiting, Yeah, waiting.

(01:16:06):
So I lost six dollars, but I could have won
one hundred and fifty's. I'll still take those, take those odds.

Speaker 10 (01:16:15):
I mean, it was a fantastic party. Yeah, amazing press
other than the one person that and no, and that
was fun too, for real, that was funny too. What
was your favorite Do you have a favorite person that
you saw there? Well, I've gosh, so many honestly, Like,
I don't know if it's kind of like the Academy
Awards if you if you mentioned one person, if you

(01:16:37):
think one person or two or three, then you get
in trouble for not mentioning them all before five. But
I really you know, now this isn't necessarily a listener,
but Pat Simmons and I he's a great guy. Yeah,
we just hit it off every time we've done an
event together and got into a show of his and yeah,

(01:16:57):
I think the world of him.

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
So yeah, great guy. He does does our music for us.
I know Dave's Cash Showdown song to go ask Molly
song really good. Wait a minute, that's why it sounded
so familiar. Ok, yeah, yeah, let's him go.

Speaker 3 (01:17:10):
I asked him at the party. I said, Pat, how
many instruments do you play? He said seven? And I
said how many were self taught? And he goes about four.
So that's I mean, the dude's picking up instruments and
learning how to play.

Speaker 10 (01:17:26):
I've never felt so inferior as to the time that
I hung out in co em seed an event with
Pat Simmons, because he's the auctioneer and I'm the MC
so my job is only to mc away be the
master of ceremonies.

Speaker 2 (01:17:42):
But he's he can play music.

Speaker 10 (01:17:46):
I guess now as I understand it's seven instruments, and
then he can he can be an auctioneer. He's doing
all these things, and I'm like, going, I could just
step out of here and he could literally introduce him.

Speaker 2 (01:18:00):
So yeah, I've seen him at Cotton's. Kate has to go,
and you like, really have to go? You have a kid.

Speaker 5 (01:18:06):

Speaker 2 (01:19:30):
Very and he's only been I think that this is
his tenth year, Like he just started being an auctioneer
ten years ago. That makes me dislike him even more. Yeah,
that crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:19:40):
I'm impressed with the people to go to auctioneer school. Yeah,
because you think, well, you just kind of practice, don't you.

Speaker 10 (01:19:47):
But no, you know you got to go, like I
think there's some sort of like certification.

Speaker 2 (01:19:52):
Yeah, there's a I know Tom Sherry, our old friend
Tom Sherry, he did that and then Stephanie did that.
Same spot's in Montana. Yeah, it is a real auctioneer
school and you go there and you impress it. Yeah,
so there is there is an art to that. Yeah.
You know my uncle was a catile auctioneer in Missouri,
oh way back when. Yeah. Yeah, he was the one where.

Speaker 3 (01:20:18):
Don't raise at the wrong time.

Speaker 3 (01:20:33):
Purpose, seen one of those as a kid. It might
have been part of the fair. But yeah, it was like,
really it was interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:20:39):
It really is. They pread them down, they like going through.

Speaker 10 (01:20:42):
They let one through the stall and they walk them
through and they and everybody's kind of looking around and.

Speaker 2 (01:20:47):
You're watching all the old timers with hats. Yeah, yeah,
feel bad for the cow, you know, I mean the
cow is I know they don't know, but they're out
there and they're like, all these people are there. They're
bidding on having me being you know, dinner for multiple pio.

Speaker 10 (01:21:05):
That's what you're buying them for, right, Yeah? And then
do you want to be the low or do you
want to be the high?

Speaker 3 (01:21:10):
And I think as they get out to the green
room afterwards, they realize they're lined up by white.

Speaker 2 (01:21:18):
Of course you went for more than me. I get it. Now,
what's going on here? If I don's on the ya?
All right? That's one of my favorite comics ever. Was
The Far Side.

Speaker 10 (01:21:31):
And there's the the the cattle lining up for the
and it says slaughterhouse. And then there's there's a big
clear line of cattle waiting to go in, and then
there's one cow that's about to join, and then the
other cow says, hey, no cutting in line.

Speaker 2 (01:21:53):

Speaker 3 (01:22:27):
And I told Dave I would come into the show
one day in a row.

Speaker 2 (01:22:32):
So I did. I made it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:34):
You did it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:35):
What an impressive streak.

Speaker 3 (01:22:36):
I haven't had to come in this early for about
a year. And I told Dave immediately I was complaining
about all the red lights downtown. It was like, just immediately,
like this is an everyday thing for me.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
You really have to time it perfectly. Yeah. Yeah. I
do the route enough where I know exactly, Yeah, exactly,
and you take the same same route everything, and then
you're probably ten minutes, eight minutes, eight minutes, you're eight
minutes from your house to the studio. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:23:02):
Wow, Yeah, I timed it right. And that's going to
speed limit.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
Oh is that?

Speaker 3 (01:23:08):
I thought that was from like your helipad on top
of your condom.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
You just floated right over. They do. Yeah, they gotta
get Sam Adams in the building, get him in, he's
coming in now fly him in like Jefferson and Fast
Times a Ridge one high. Yeah. Did you watch any
of the Seahawk game last night? No? I just saw
the highlights this morning.

Speaker 3 (01:23:27):
Yeah, yeah, early night de bed Yeah, a walk off
field goal as they say, yeah, I was. I told Dave,
I said, I'm set for overtime, we know, and then
boom boom boom boom.

Speaker 2 (01:23:40):
And seriously with the comeback that Arizona came.

Speaker 10 (01:23:43):
They marched down the field and then wow, Seattle just
goes right back.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
It's some field goal position and.

Speaker 3 (01:23:48):
Wins the game. Well, if you're going to do that,
we'll do this. Yeah, that was really good.

Speaker 10 (01:23:52):
And then there was a there was a side eye
moment I saw, ah, yes, we played that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:57):
Wow, that was kind of funny. I missed that, but yeah,
I guess live the bad word got out. My DVR
records the game, but it only records it from the
NFL network, so it's after it was over, so they
had chances to sort of clean it up. I wanted
to ask you, though, if there was any chatter about

(01:24:19):
the Arizona Cardinal uniforms. Didn't hear anything anything about right
the desert whatever they call it. It was because it's
a rival game or something. The NFL is doing these
things where they're you know, they're having the home team
on one of these games have something different with their jerseys.
So the Cardinals went with with their you know, they're

(01:24:39):
wearing their white jerseys, but it's supposed to be a
desert look, and to me, it just looked like mud
speckles all over their jersey and it didn't. It didn't
say desert to me. It just said like, why can't
they clean up the MUDs? And it's on it's on
real grass. You know, it's Arizona. They they bring in

(01:25:01):
real grass for this for the game, but it just
looked like mud. Yeah, I didn't know.

Speaker 10 (01:25:07):
If I didn't have a take on that. I know
that Thursday used to be the color Rush.

Speaker 3 (01:25:10):
Yeah, yeah, lay up the lime green Action green, that's what.

Speaker 2 (01:25:15):
They called it, Action Green, Action Green eleven, which I
liked it, but I think the general consensus was people
didn't like the neon Yeah, it's too neon ish. All right,
we got to play the Showdown? Hey, yeah, I played

(01:25:36):
Sam earlier this week of the Showdown. How did that go?

Speaker 10 (01:25:39):
He had two field goals? I had a field goal.
And a safety.

Speaker 2 (01:25:43):
He wins by one, wins by one clothes. Look at this, Sam,
I'm going to pay you off right now, and Ken
is the witness. We'll see nice five dollars. You have
won five dollars. Thank you, yir. I'm only saving. I'll
pay my best.

Speaker 10 (01:26:01):
I'm bully taking this because I know if I lost fifty,
you would take it.

Speaker 3 (01:26:04):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:26:04):
I would have definitely take okay, and I did. Someone
on the text line, Oh, Regina says it's still cheating
that I even though I self reported and I told Cali,
I said, if you show up, I get one hundred
and fifty dollars. I never said I'll give you some
of the money or anything like that. I just said,
if you happened, this is a very big deal for me. Right.

(01:26:28):
But according to a couple of different textures that I
was in cahoots.

Speaker 10 (01:26:34):
Well, the fact that you use the word self report,
I think that's akin to like college football and college
athletics when something would happen with recruiting, and something would
happen and they would self report, and typically what happens
is all right, this is a warning, don't do it again.
So Dave for your self reporting this is your warning,

(01:26:56):
don't do that again.

Speaker 2 (01:26:57):
Just a fair one. I'm guilty of wife. That's good
for a self report. You have been chastised. Yeah, now,
and we're starting fresh, starting fresh. Look at it now,
here's all the texts.

Speaker 4 (01:27:09):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:27:09):
The uniform this is from Bethany. The uniforms look like
poop splatters, Natasha says. The Cardinal jerseys look dirty. Okay, Yeah,
I've always thought.

Speaker 3 (01:27:21):
I don't know, if you've seen the Oregon Duck basketball court.

Speaker 2 (01:27:25):
Yes, way too busy that that looks like somebody pooped
all over the court. I don't like. I don't like
all the brown. Yeah. I think there's just too much
going on. Yeah, say I don't know, or leaves or
something like. Yeah, a little too busy.

Speaker 10 (01:27:41):
Yeah, so especially I used to live there, and and
before that it was MacArthur Court and that thing was,
you know, very classic, the mac.

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
Mac way back in the day. Go good, Venerable court.
All right, Jim, have a good weekend. Yeah you too.
Play the show down. I think we have Meghan that
was going to play the showdown. So we'll get to that.
Ken's got the questions that Molly has crafted. There's a
five dollars question in there. Yes, then maybe off the air,
I will you can ask Sam if he knows the

(01:28:12):
answer to the five dollars question. Hey, just for you know,
just for our own purchase to see. Okay, so I
can win I just lost five dollars to Sam, but
maybe I can win it back through Malwy's question.

Speaker 3 (01:28:23):
Good, there's always a deal on the board.

Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
I like the deals. Oh, I gotta yeah, I'm always
looking for the deal. All Right, we're back after a break.

fifty eight. I don't think that meant anything to him.

Speaker 2 (01:31:40):
Well, at least you didn't say, you know, hey, do
you why are you normally this dumb mark? He just
played dumb on the radio you're playing.

Tell him. I did tell him that listening to he
and Clyde on the air converted me to watching Q
six getting the app to listen to you guys, I
wasn't a Q six news watcher. And then you know,
of course we have anger at the other stations for

(01:32:11):
what they did do, so we had to drop them

Speaker 3 (01:42:53):
Yeah, firefighter can retired, Ken and Dave.

Speaker 1 (01:42:57):
You guys, we're talking about the old days, yep. I
got to start off with that. I clearly remember meeting
Candle for the first time. You and I had known
each other, and I remember we were working at it
was up on the Hill and it was the old
Krem FM, and I remember you coming in Ken as

(01:43:19):
an intern from Eastern and I remember I have a mullet,
I mind have.

Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
Three?

Speaker 1 (01:43:31):
Well, I want to say eighty two. Yeah, And I
remember I remember Bill Stairs took on as the program director.
And I remember because I'd been there for a little
while and I was there during the weekday and Ken
comes in and Bill Stairs made him call one of
the other radio stations and say, why automation equipment has

(01:43:56):
arrived here at the bus station, how do we ship
it to you or something like that. I just remember thinking, Wow,
this Bill Stairs guy, because he was kind of new,
is like he's maniacally evil. And then I thought, this
young dude, Ken is for anything.

Speaker 2 (01:44:12):
I remember watching him. He was just dialing this number.

Speaker 3 (01:44:15):
Then he handed me the cradle, the old phone, and
I you know what, I was trained very well from
that because in college we used to do what you
called burn calls back at our little little campus station
and dorm rooms. Everybody had a phone and you would

(01:44:36):
do crank calls.

Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
And there was no Star sixty nine. It was just
like you would have fun. So it was the wild West.
Then I would get away with anything.

Speaker 3 (01:44:44):
Was trained to pretend to be somebody else on the phone.

Speaker 2 (01:44:49):
I think that was my audition. I think they'll said, okay,
this kid.

Speaker 1 (01:44:52):
This kid's got chopped.

Speaker 7 (01:44:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
Yeah, And there was a different set of rules back then.
I mean they were just yeah. Boy. The stuff that
they would do, you know, to other stations, and the
stuff that they would do to you. I remember, I
still have them somewhere. There's the audio. They threw a
pack of firecrackers in the studio while I was on,

(01:45:14):
just to see how I would react. Like that was
that was okay, I know.

Speaker 1 (01:45:20):
I remember because the station was like and we're talking
like this and here's lads ye stuff like that. I
remember you were reading like something you had to commit to.

Speaker 2 (01:45:29):
It's like they know exactly when to do it because
I was locked in for a few minutes.

Speaker 1 (01:45:33):
And you hear Dave's posito so coming up on Thursdays.

Speaker 14 (01:45:36):
Oh just and then I and then I realized that
there was I think I saw them out in the
you know, past the glass, and they were all, you know,
laughing and everything, and so I knew that, Okay, it's
a bit.

Speaker 2 (01:45:52):
And then I said, and the smoke is filling the air.
But it did scare the crap out of it. When
it first happened.

Speaker 1 (01:46:00):
It was a bunch of firecrackers. It was like it
was real fire crackers too. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:46:05):
Yeah, it a different time. I don't think that's sol
guy approved of that. You know, it's a different time.

Speaker 1 (01:46:10):
Can you imagine doing that in today's corporate world, that'd
be just you'd be gone. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:46:16):
I also remember the just the almost everybody smoked like
that was the thing. And the guys that you know,
I would follow a guy on the air and he
would be taking while he's talking on the air, taking
a big puff and then blowing smoke, and the smoke
is going right into the microphone like it's just like
as he's talking, it's just going in there. And then

(01:46:38):
I was the next guy on with that same microphone.
That's just that's how it is. You just you know,
way different now. Smoking in a building, I know, and
the counter always had a cigarette burn marks, you know, and.

Speaker 3 (01:46:54):
Yeah, little carpet down the area.

Speaker 1 (01:46:59):
The old old school radio stories, they were just it
was just bizarre compared to nowadays. But here we are now. Yeah, yeah,
you guys, I know obviously you're retired, but uh, you
guys became what every I think radio person wanted long career,

(01:47:23):
the ability to command thousands of fads, and you know
that I was a DJ. I would go, Okay, now
here's another song, and hey, I'm going to say something
I think is witty. Yeah, didn't quite work.

Speaker 3 (01:47:37):
Well, yeah, it did flowd It just kind of settled in.

Speaker 2 (01:47:43):
Do you remember the early days where back and I
think I started, I was an intern and then they
hired me. I was the first person that was an
intern that they hired because they never against union purposes
or whatever, so they kind of changed the rules and
hired me. I was really really lucky. But crem AM
was the was the station that you're first on and

(01:48:05):
you're on in the middle of the night and you
have like you've got to read a PSA public service
announcement and then you're going to do the weather, and
that's all that you're really doing. And I would have tapes.
My shift would be over me like six hours but
really only four minutes of me talking. I would go
home and listen to that over and over again, like, oh,

(01:48:28):
I did the weather better on that one, you know
the way I said cloudy, yes, yes, and.

Speaker 3 (01:48:37):
Then when I said here's Gloria Laura Brannigan or whatever it.

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
Was back in the day. We also then when you
got on KREM FM, that was the big deal. That
was a oh yeah. And then the AM was all
a bunch of real to real tapes that would play
music and it was all, you know, somewhat computerized, so
it would fire off different the time, and then you'd
get a warning in the FM studio the tape had

(01:49:05):
run out, right, and then you had to run in
there while you're playing a song because you're you know,
there is no it was a computer, yeah, you had,
and you only had two turntables, so one was playing
the other one you were getting ready to have plays.
So set that was a you know, it was a
real job. You're on you know, you're doing something all
the time. But in addition to that, you had to

(01:49:25):
run over to the other studio, take the tape off,
rewind the tape all the way all right, yeah, then
take that one off, put a new one on, and
then you get it all cue up. And that was
just part of your duties, you know. Back then.

Speaker 1 (01:49:38):
I go on a road trip now and if I'm
going through it struck me. I was going heading east.
You go through the little town of Wallace, and I
remember back in the days Wallace you're driving through and
you're thinking, man, look at that. There's the radio tower
and wow, there's somebody there that's spinning records.

Speaker 2 (01:49:53):
Let's listen and stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:49:54):
That was the old days. Now everything is just gone.
There's no live person in the building. There's you know.

Speaker 2 (01:50:01):
It's just a satellite from someone.

Speaker 1 (01:50:03):
Yeah. Yeah, the way that industry has changed so much,
but yet how some things stay the same. That there's entertainment,
there's fun people that you know. That was one of
the things at the party somebody, because I was there
with you guys. I was trying to record people for things,
and many people said, it's just great to hear them

(01:50:25):
in the morning because they talk about what's going on.
They're they're local, there are friends there, stuff like that,
and it's like, well, that's the way always was and
always should be. Should shouldn't be?

Speaker 2 (01:50:36):
Why some sort of a connection?

Speaker 15 (01:50:38):
Yeah, yeah, I like the uh you talk about how
there always had to be somebody physically there, Like you know,
when you start out, you are always working in the
middle of the night.

Speaker 2 (01:50:51):
That's those shifts that you get when you're you know,
working your way up. Well, and at the old crim building,
it was you know, there would be one person that
was on both stations, so you were you're on the FM,
but you were also had to make sure the tapes
were on the AM and running flip different shows and everything,
and then of course the TV station was going on.

(01:51:12):
And that's how I became friends with all the TV
people early, is because they would finish the evening of
the night news, like the eleven o'clock news, eleven thirty midnight,
they'd come wandering over and it's just like, Okay, I
just hang out with the sports guy and the weather
person who was Todd. Who's Todd Pickett? Todd Will I
remember that way? And he would always come in. And

(01:51:35):
then Shelley Monaghan, oh yeah, who actually worked here, right,
worked with her.

Speaker 1 (01:51:42):
My first real full time job was right after her
at night on kJ RB, right Sunshine. Shelley then tended
to or she was on Yeah, she was on tended too.
And then I came in and did two am to
six am, yep, I remember, And I.

Speaker 2 (01:51:55):
Was kept going for the morning guys.

Speaker 7 (01:51:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:51:57):
Yeah, And that's where they make you do stuff, uh
where hey, we got to have X amount of minutes
of news per week, so you DJ Wanta Bee guy
get to be a news guy two times an hour,
and you have to read news. I remember, I got
two things I want to say. I remember I got
the gig and I was I was nineteen, I think,

(01:52:19):
and I get there. It's like I'm a DJ, I'm
on KJRB. This is legendary. Oh my gosh. Oh I
have to do news. I would just rip and read
and I would just butcher it. I just go through
in the in washing in Washington, d C. They would
the president. President said, you know, it was just horrible
because I I was cold nerding.

Speaker 2 (01:52:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:52:39):
My first air check with the boss, which is where
you play back the audio of what you did. I
sit in front of the guy and he stops the
tape and he says, oh, can this is horrible. I
had such denial. I thought, yeah, you know, it's the
middle of the night, and he goes, this is horrible.

(01:53:02):
This has to get better immediately, Oh my gosh, or
you won't be able to continue doing this. Oh my god.
So I that's where I learned how to write, and
I wrote out I came in hours before and did that.
The other one. I remember, because I was only nineteen,
I haven't increased my vocabulary by much. I remember reading

(01:53:26):
a story and instead of the word indict, which is
spelled I N D I C T. Oh, no, it
was all indict. It was indic. The indictment came down
to the indictment, the indiction. I get done with that
newscast and one line is ringing on the request lines,

(01:53:47):
Hey k J RB hi, you know you want to
think that I'm cool or anything? You know, that's that's
it was so ego driven for me. That guy on
the other end goes, it's indict you idiot, like he
might as well just called me an idiot. Oh, I

(01:54:09):
realized I.

Speaker 2 (01:54:11):
Haven't heard those stories, and that is brutal that, you know,
a guy would say to the program record that this
is horrible. Yeah, and yeah, I mean that's well. And
I never had anybody it was there was always I
always maybe got a softer version, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:54:25):
And it wasn't mean I think it went from oh okay,
so you can do better and you can do something.
It was at the level of like, oh my god,
who did I hire? And there is no way this
can happen anymore. And I appreciated the brutal honesty because
I came to work like three hours early, just to

(01:54:46):
make sure, and then very true to his credit, the
very next you know, it was like a week later.
I came in. It's like, okay, here's the tape and
here's what I've done. And he listened to it and
he stopped it. He goes, Wow, that is amazing that
you Yeah, so I got the feedback back, but I, yeah,
put the fear of losing my my six hundred dollars

(01:55:08):
a month job or whatever I've been.

Speaker 2 (01:55:12):
I do remember we were talking about our old program director,
Bill Stairs, and I remember, you know, they would have
liner cards where you were. You know, they just basically
want you to read these things about station promotions and
that kind of thing. And I remember being in the
studio because I was always hanging out with all the
other guys. You know, it was like I just like

(01:55:33):
being there, right, and there was way more experienced people
that were on the air, of course, and so there
I'm finishing my shift, they're getting started, and I remember
one of the guys calling Bill and saying, Hey, Bill,
what's what's the deal with this man? You've got liner
cards in it and says, read verbatim on the card.
I mean, I mean come on man, and and this
is on the speaker phone and I'm still in the

(01:55:54):
studio and then Bill says, oh, don't worry about that, man.
I just I had to put that. It's it's for
guys like Spositos.

Speaker 16 (01:56:04):
So that was my your horrible moment was like it was,
and there was there was three or four of us
that were pretty pretty young, and so they didn't want us.

Speaker 1 (01:56:15):
Going you know.

Speaker 2 (01:56:16):
Yeah, it was like you just just read this verbatim,
do not you know, try to add in your own
funny personal stuff. But he actually said, oh, that's don't
worry about that. Yeah, I had to put that in there,
you know, for guys like spit and the and the
guy was, well, he's he's here in the studio right now.

(01:56:37):
And oh, well, I'm sorry, but that's you know, that's
what it is. He didn't he didn't try to sugarcoat it. It
was right. I remember going on.

Speaker 3 (01:56:47):
I think it was a two to two to six
h might have been a Saturday night, and I was
very prepared for my very first break and I was
so happy because you guys remember midnight movies, those are big.

Speaker 2 (01:57:00):
Oh yeah, oh man, Saturday night. So it's like boom.
I get in there.

Speaker 3 (01:57:05):
It's two am, Saturday night, Sunday morning, and I did
the most perfect midnight movie thing. And then the guy
came in and said, that was pretty good. But the
only people that heard that are on the people on
their way home from.

Speaker 2 (01:57:22):
That should have been for next week. Yeah, it was.
It was like to the midnight was too nailed? Oh
I did, so, come on out. Oh that was two hours.

Speaker 1 (01:57:36):
Sorry, when all you're doing is focusing on what you're
going to say, not the relevance of the door, does
this really fit?

Speaker 2 (01:57:44):
Yeah? Oh man, I remember in Texas days, you know,
and I was, you know, I left here to go
work in Texas and it was new news and sports basically. Yeah. Sure.
So I get down there and this is mid eighties
and the first time I'm reading a story about ross Parot,
and ross Parot was a was from Texas. So like

(01:58:07):
even people back in the mid eighties knew of ross
Parout before, you know, the rest of the country did,
just because he was, you know, a billionaire back then
or whatever. Well, the story, so I'm reading the story
and I'm saying, uh, it was it used to be
h ross Perot, you know, it's his name. I was
calling him h ross Parott and I did it multiple times,

(01:58:27):
kind of like when and I remember getting you know,
getting out of the live segment and our old general manager,
Ken Williams was his name. Super nice guy. He he
just came in and just said that I was going
by Dave Robbins back then. He says, Robins, it's ross

(01:58:49):
Parout ross Paro. You don't know that, And I said, no,
I don't know that. You know the ross Paratt.

Speaker 1 (01:58:57):
It's like going to the home depot.

Speaker 2 (01:58:59):
Yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 1 (01:59:02):
And instantly with one word, everybody knows you're not from
around here.

Speaker 2 (01:59:07):
Yeah. Yeah, that was definitely the There's a lot of
stuff like that about Texas. That was they would know
right away if you were a Texan or all your
Yankee as they call you.

Speaker 4 (01:59:21):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:59:21):
My dad always got a kick when there was like
a yelling kid on the news and you knew they
weren't from the area. I remember once whether reporter told
us it was going to be sixty five and inacrates.
That's an idiot.

Speaker 2 (01:59:37):
I know you would enjoy that.

Speaker 3 (01:59:39):
Anacrates, Yeah, acrates, you know, and it's tough. You know,
you got all the native American names. People up, I'm
sure if you're not from here.

Speaker 1 (01:59:51):
I remember my first wife when I married her in Spokane.
We're going over to Anacordus to visit my family and stuff,
and she goes, okay, let me get this one. Pull
you up now, killto Yeah, no, it's muckle t o. Yeah,
there's some weird funny names over there. Yeah, ah, the

(02:00:13):
old days. I I just found I have a bin
full of cassettes and stuff, but I kept it, uh
recordings of of my time being on the radio, but
I kept it out in an outbuilding, and for the
longest time I brought it in, I thought, man, wonder
if the weather has been okay to it? I have
a I found an old cassette player and stuff and

(02:00:36):
they're great. Yeah, yeah, it's so it's uh, it's cringe
what I thought. How cool I thought I was. Now
I listened to it and it's like, well, that's a
different era anyway, you'd never hear that on the radio now.

Speaker 2 (02:00:52):
And that's what we did then.

Speaker 1 (02:00:54):
And in my head I was like, yeah, I'm on
the rise. I'm a d J.

Speaker 2 (02:01:01):
I've got boxes and boxes of uh cassette tapes and
the same situation. They're they're just in the basement. They're all,
you know, in order and everything. Sure, but yeah, I
mean just some of it is like thirty years old, right, Yeah,
you wonder how much of that's hold.

Speaker 1 (02:01:17):
Yeah, it's they still play and my stuff is literally
from the first part of the eighties. That's why when
Molly pulled out her VHS stuff of the acting of
the acting, oh my god, it makes me nervous looking
at her. And you know, and she's young girl, young
and stuff, ready to go. She's on on the beginning

(02:01:40):
of her career, and to see the acting is like, oh,
you're baring your soul when you put your early earliest
stuff out there. You should find tapes and bring something.

Speaker 2 (02:01:52):
I've got them somewhere. Yeah, yeah, I know. I've got
a box somewhere too.

Speaker 1 (02:01:56):
But it's weird to think that that's that's our history.
And you know, with the way you guys were kicked
out of the OCHO, is that what you're calling it?
The OCHO? Yeah, I've heard you say it a couple
of times, THEO. Yeah, haven't you said THEO? I'm not
the old building?

Speaker 2 (02:02:15):
Oh, the old building. I thought I was hearing you
say the Yeah, I don't think so, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:02:22):
I am mister archive. I'm going to go back and
find okay, yeah the.

Speaker 2 (02:02:26):
Old place now yeah? Yeah, where was I going? The
old old tapes?

Speaker 1 (02:02:33):
Yeah? Oh oh the fact that you guys got kicked
out like that with no you know here you get
to keep the old audio or anything like that. It's history,
that's that's just gone.

Speaker 3 (02:02:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:02:42):
So to have those cassettes of of what I used
to do for a living. I raised a family barely
of three kids on the radio in Texas and California
and Colorado. And a couple of times I was like
coming in and they go, hey, Ken, we're having a meeting.
Well you you come in before the meeting. Oh okay,

(02:03:03):
Oh and then you sit down and there's you can
see upside down there's a check.

Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:03:12):
That happened a couple of times when it's like a folder.
You know, Hey, but here here's two weeks severn.

Speaker 2 (02:03:17):
So it's like, well, the Colorado thing, that was one
time where there was nothing either though. It was just
everybody was gone. And I've told the story, but it
was the Friday before Christmas. It was December twenty second.
We worked all the way up until the Christmas break
and it was like shows over and it's like, oh,

(02:03:39):
the basically the station had gone back to its previous
owner because the owners that had it you know, you know,
didn't do the bills and they yeah, so it went
back and then when the new guy, you know, he
took over and just wiped everybody out at ANN And
I remember like that was before like you know, cell
phones or anything like that. And I remember calling our

(02:04:02):
consultant and I was like panic. It's like, I, you know,
I don't have a job a Friday before Christmas and
and he was and he was so he was so great.
He was like, don't don't panic, says I, I can
get you work. I can find you. It may be
North Dakota or Mississippi, but I can find you work.
Right after the first of the year, and I said, well,
I don't want to go to Mississippi. And so I

(02:04:24):
think I was, I was. I think I met with
the North Dakota people like January third, and then I
was on the air the next week and they front
loaded me and it was a great company.

Speaker 1 (02:04:38):
It was really took care of the Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:04:41):
So they they gave me like a big check to
move and to get started, and then you know, and
then I survived, and then it was like the whole time,
I was like, I don't want to be in North Dakota,
but they were so good to me that I stayed.
You know, I stayed a couple couple.

Speaker 1 (02:04:55):
Of years in an emergency situation to your family emergency
and there was no I didn't even save any money.

Speaker 2 (02:05:01):
I didn't know. And my daughters like, not even a.

Speaker 1 (02:05:04):
Year old, Oh my gosh, that happened sadly. And you know,
two marriages ago.

Speaker 2 (02:05:12):
Did you hear that, Molly?

Speaker 1 (02:05:15):
They you know, they each had to endure the Hey, honey,
i'm home early today. Yeah that, oh god, it's so awkward,
so uncomfortable. But now now I'm a fire man.

Speaker 2 (02:05:28):
You know, somebody, somebody on the text line said, how
did you you know, tell this story how you go
from radio to being a firefighter.

Speaker 1 (02:05:37):
You know, I couldn't remember the first time that spark
was every there. Well, I grew up as a kid.
I love Emergency with Johnny and Roy, but that was
inspiring as a kid. But I was ten eleven years old.
I remember there was an apartment fire at a place
when I was in radio in Fresno, and I went

(02:05:58):
down to Lookie lou And and I was asking a
guy question, why do you cut a hole in the
roof while the fire's going on?

Speaker 2 (02:06:06):
What's that?

Speaker 1 (02:06:06):
Why is that?

Speaker 2 (02:06:07):
And what he described was so.

Speaker 1 (02:06:11):
Amazing and scientific and stuff. I thought, Wow, that is
so cool. It had always been kind of a cool
thing where I just thought it was neat Here's the story,
Here's how I got really motivated to become a firefighter.
Spokane Valley Fire Department to this day still offers free
CPR classes once a month at one of our training areas.
And I kept driving by the garbage dump taking stuff

(02:06:33):
to the dump, and they'd have a reader board that said, hey,
free CPR. It's you know, I need to do that,
because what if I'm at a restaurant and I didn't
take the hour, hour and a half to learn CPR
and a guy behind me goes down. I would feel horrible.
So I finally signed up. I go in. You know,
I was in my forties at the time, and I'm
learning CPR and Okay, this is great, and there's this

(02:06:54):
guy that's teaching it. But some of the crew from
the nearby house came in there in uniform stuff, and
already they're like, wow, look at those guys coming in.
They they get paged out for a call, it's like,
oh wow, they're going to do something. They're going to
save a life and stuff. They come back a little
bit later, not too long, and I swear to god,
they were twelve feet tall. Then I'm an adult male,

(02:07:17):
you know, but these guys were like football stars or
something like that. They walk in, I just go, wow,
what what would that be like to be able? That's
your job to go out and help people and do stuff,
excitement and all that kind of stuff. And that's right
then and there that that inspired me to start thinking
about it, and I thought, well, I'll volunteer. And then

(02:07:38):
luckily the first wife, at the end of being my
first wife, I'm sharing this. God, that would be so cool.
And she actually said, hey, why wouldn't Why, Well, then
try for it. Why wouldn't you? Well, I got kids,
I got family and stuff. You should do what makes
you happy. Well, now I know she was also thinking
about doing something that would make her.

Speaker 2 (02:08:00):
Oh yeah, go ahead and.

Speaker 1 (02:08:03):
Do that a little transition time, but I kept after it,
and I was inspired and I kept going and I
just never looked back.

Speaker 2 (02:08:10):
It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (02:08:11):
It was lucky.

Speaker 3 (02:08:13):
And what is the average age of the guys new
firefighters coming in?

Speaker 2 (02:08:18):
I mean my kids young.

Speaker 1 (02:08:20):
Are older than them. Yeah, they're, well, we've that's not
always true. They the mid twenties. We hired an eighteen
year old guy who is phenomenal. He's a medic now
and he's just he's sharp. But yeah, mid twenties, thirties.
But there's a couple of guys that are, you know,
in their forties that get get got hired. Can I

(02:08:41):
talk about the open house? Yeah, while I'm here? Yes, okay, good,
So I'm here as friend of David Ken, but I'm
also here as firefighter tomorrow. We do this every year
Spokane Valley Fire Department, the Spokane Valley not the city.
City's great, but we are a totally different department. Every
year we offer up an open house where people get

(02:09:01):
to come see touch stuff, get in a fire truck.
It's great for the kids. Live fire demonstration. A group
from Montana brings in a trailer that they have. One
room is full of you know, couch and chair and
stuff like that. The next room, this is on a
big semi truck. It's modified. They demonstrate the power of

(02:09:25):
sprinklers and one gets lit on fire and it just
burns without any water controlling automatic sprinklers. The next then
they light it up with the sprinklers and it's just
an amazing demonstration. You can feel the heat from it
and stuff. But we have helicopters there that the search
and rescue kids can come up and play fireman with

(02:09:45):
a hose and squared targets and stuff. We have hot
This is at our new tower. Those that might have
been aware of it and have come before, we have.
We have just constructed over the last year and a
half or so two years new training tower. It's an
amazing facility. But it's out always further. So it's out
at Trent and Barker. If you go along Trent, get

(02:10:09):
off at Barker and go south, it's really it's at
Garland and Barker and you'll see it there. That's where
we have our shop where the guys work on the fire.
Is it just tomorrow or is it both tomorrow only? Wait?
Tomorrow is Saturday.

Speaker 2 (02:10:23):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (02:10:24):
That's one of the it's one of the downsides of
being a firefighter working a shift. You work one day
and then you're off for two days. For US city
has a different schedule. I always I have no idea
what day of the week it is. There have been
times I wake up in the morning if I haven't
stayed with Molly, that I'll get up on a Saturday
and tune in to you guys and it's nothing but

(02:10:44):
dead air. It's like, oh, no, something's wrong. No, dummy,
it's Saturday. You do so it's tomorrow ten to two,
absolutely free. There's food, there's all kinds of free things
that are safety oriented. There's an amazing amount of stuff
there and you can find out more if you go
to Spokane Valley Fire on any of the social media,

(02:11:05):
but it's Spokane Valley Fire Department ten to two free nights.
Something that's kind of cool. I like being able to
brag about for them one hour ahead of time at
nine am for special needs kids and we scored them
around and there's one to one time with firefighters. It's
designed to make sure that they are not scared if

(02:11:26):
we ever have to come in if there's a fire
in the house, and with you know, sensory overload and stuff,
we just don't have the noise and stuff like that
that we do from ten to two stuff and yours
truly will be the MC for it. So oh yeah,
I go out there and I have two MC events tomorrow.
I'm doing that and then Molly's Safety Net with fostering

(02:11:46):
flights so yea time and nighttime. Yeah. So so thank you,
thank you for letting me plug that because it's it's
so cool and it's free, and it's come for twenty
minutes or come stay for three hours. It's there's so
much to see and I could eat off all the stuff,
but it's it's a long list and I don't want
to be indicted later if I get it wrong.

Speaker 2 (02:12:09):
This is horrible.

Speaker 1 (02:12:11):
Oh that was John Sherman. I remember John. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:12:17):
There were a lot of big radio people that came
through this market.

Speaker 1 (02:12:21):
Yeah, we were Charlie Brown who was later went on
to be a huge morning guy in Seattle. Larry Lujack
came through Spokane. W LS old days of Chicago Times Chicago. Yeah,
it's crazy, Yeah, I used to mean something back in
the day.

Speaker 2 (02:12:39):
I remember you'd buy tapes of these guys, you know
different they call it California air Checks or what was
the company California and you would send you know, your money,
you know, in a check, and then you'd wait for
the package to arrive with the cassette and it would
have all the Los Angeles jocks on there or whoever
they'd hear what they're like, oh, and then instantly try

(02:12:59):
to steal.

Speaker 7 (02:13:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:13:00):
I was like, oh, I want to sound like that guy.

Speaker 1 (02:13:02):
Yeah sixty four Kate JS. You know the guys with
the booming boys. Yeah, Oh those were the days. Those
were ken.

Speaker 2 (02:13:12):
You were always wanting to be in radio, right, I
mean you went to I wastern to be in radio.

Speaker 3 (02:13:17):
And speaking of the very first radio station that I
ever heard, we did not have a TV.

Speaker 2 (02:13:24):
Growing up in kwag Ida. It's just mountains. Oh yeah,
Kate w a l wall Insideaho, That's what.

Speaker 3 (02:13:32):
And I'm sure during the day it was all whatever,
but at night it was the top forty music where
I I mean.

Speaker 2 (02:13:41):
That it was just music, was it?

Speaker 1 (02:13:43):
Yeah, and thinking there's a life DJ like you guys
were talking about that, Hey will you play will you
play the song but don't talk over it so I
can record it.

Speaker 2 (02:13:53):
Yeah, And I had one of those calls.

Speaker 3 (02:13:55):
I remember my brother and this was way before I mean,
I was probably in second grade and I remember my
brother going over.

Speaker 2 (02:14:03):
He was playing a song on the radio or on.

Speaker 3 (02:14:06):
The stereo, and he always said, why does the radio
guy always do this?

Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
And he turned it up and then goes, we now
have a winner. We now have the winter. He turned
it down right in the middle of the no more calls,
we have a winner. I thought, Yeah, why does he? Yeah,
just so it was as old school as it could be.
No more calls and real to real tapes where you

(02:14:33):
had to you know, you would edit a phone call,
you know, and but you had to do it with
a razor blade. You're and you're cutting the tape and
then taping, and you're trying to do all that in
the you know, in between a I saw a four
minute song. Yeah, that's just you just did it.

Speaker 1 (02:14:51):
I every once in a while, because it's been a
long time ago. I've been firefighter for thirteen years. But
every once in a while a radio n mare will
pop into my dreams.

Speaker 2 (02:15:02):
Well I still do that.

Speaker 1 (02:15:03):
You know where the song is ending, and you can't
get another cassette tape or the card for the CD.
You can't get it in there because it's become a
piggy bank. Oh no, and now you Oh no, now
I have to talk.

Speaker 2 (02:15:17):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:15:18):
Oh god, the performance anxiety.

Speaker 2 (02:15:21):
Wait, why is that?

Speaker 3 (02:15:23):
It's always the time is running out? Yeah, yeah, something's
not working.

Speaker 1 (02:15:28):
I remember one guy I worked with talking about it.
It's only gonna be funny to me, but he was
talking about having a radio nightmare. It's like, oh, yeah, yeah,
what was yours? He goes, well, I was talking and
my teeth, my jaw fell out. It's like, oh, that's
not even a radio nightmare. That's that's like a horror movie.

(02:15:50):
My teeth fell out on the turntable.

Speaker 2 (02:15:53):
Yeah, that's a good laughter right there.

Speaker 1 (02:16:02):
I hope if it wasn't too boring because I love
those stories.

Speaker 2 (02:16:09):
And then we got many more too. I remember you
were talking about, you know, old program directors calling other
radio stations and taking them off the air.

Speaker 1 (02:16:17):
I mean there was a team of people that we
were a part of. It was the practical jokes. Yes,
when you knew how to get to somebody really good.

Speaker 7 (02:16:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:16:27):
I just bought the engineer up. I'm up on the mountain.
I need you to pot the song down and then
count to four and turn it back up. Okay, okay,
whatever you say, and then we would record that and
we would dirty tricks. You guys ready for Hot Topics.

(02:16:48):
We should do Hot Topics.

Speaker 1 (02:16:52):
Brought to you by Clark's Tire and Automotive Center.

Speaker 2 (02:16:56):
Look, you could have done that line Hot Topics. You
actually got to meet Lady Newton John Is that right?

Speaker 2 (02:17:15):
Serena Williams has a birthday today too. She's forty four.
And see if one of you, guys, one of you,
I think you both have a shot at this. All right,
let's go from the world of music. Fifty three years
old today? Young guy who is Sean Stockman? I'm out
that is one of the boys to men. Very good. Hello, Yeah,

(02:17:38):
and he was Sean Stockman. He played for the Utah Jazz. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:17:57):
You can probably wrecklf No, he was that was a
new edition. Guy was B B. D.

Speaker 1 (02:18:07):
Yeah, maybe or whatever.

Speaker 2 (02:18:09):
Okay, I think boys men still tours, but I think
there's just three of them now and then they're they're
all alive, but one of them just doesn't want to
do it or something, and.

Speaker 1 (02:18:17):
They are actually men.

Speaker 2 (02:18:19):
They went to men. Here's another one. I think you
have a shot out. Brian Ferry.

Speaker 1 (02:18:25):
Brian Ferry, Brian Ferry. He uh euro kind of band,
The fairy Man. Brian Ferry rocks.

Speaker 2 (02:18:41):
I would not have got that was melonic. H And
do you know the name Kent McCord get out, of
course I do. Here's an actor. Yes, it was in
one of those.

Speaker 1 (02:18:58):
No, that's Emergency. He was one of the was it, yes, yes, no, No,
the other one he played. Kent McCord played Adam twelve.

Speaker 2 (02:19:13):
Yeah, mc Kim mccordy his face cut. Jim Reid was
his name, Oh, Jim Reid? And Pete malloy. Yeah, Kent
McCord is eighty three. Still have no idea what he's
doing now.

Speaker 1 (02:19:29):
But one of the one of the claims to fame
I have as a firefighter. I was doing radio in
Bellingham and Kevin Tye, who played roy De Soto in Emergency.
He was the family guy and stuff. He came in
and did an interview because he was doing a fundraiser thing.
I got to have him on the air. I got

(02:19:50):
to I got to hang out with him, the real guy.
And then later on I got hired and Randolph Mantooth,
who played Johnny Gage, came in on behalf of Fire
in the EMS to talk about safety and stuff like that.
I got to shake his hand. Yeah, all right, all right,
so kem McCord claim to fame.

Speaker 2 (02:20:10):
All right, Today is National Pancake Day. Time to have
some pancakes, a whole snack of them. Yeah, I'm more
silver dollar.

Speaker 1 (02:20:19):
You remember George Miller, oh, the comedian. Yeah, yeah, why
you eat pancakes? And jog in the Hot Sun? That
was one of his livees. That was a funny insult.
I always thinking about that.

Speaker 2 (02:20:33):
Jog in the hots milk was a bad joy, was
a bad choice. Later right ahead, and I wish Molly
was here for a number of reasons. But this was
a big day sixty five years ago today, nineteen sixty
the very first presidential debate, televised debate.

Speaker 1 (02:20:55):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (02:20:55):
John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon started it all. She
can do?

Speaker 1 (02:21:00):
Yeah, I know, White spectacular.

Speaker 2 (02:21:06):
Sixty one years ago today, Gilligan's Island premiered. Oh wow,
and Ginger is the only one left right alive. She's
ninety and we don't wow. I haven't got to see
her for years. And then fifty six years ago today,
nineteen sixty nine, the Brady Bunch debuted on ABC Television.

(02:21:28):
Oh my god, you God would have she would have
the Brady Bunch thing and the Richard Nixon thing almost
of what she would do all present.

Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
Yeah, yeah, of all of those, and Ginger with the killing.

Speaker 2 (02:21:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:21:44):
I am quite versed in the David Molly show because
listening to all the stuff and.

Speaker 2 (02:21:49):
You'll hear the whole show.

Speaker 1 (02:21:50):
Yeah, I've heard the same shows. I've heard more of
your shows than you have. Uh probably, I guarantee, Yeah,
just because I listened to the show to break it
down and stuff. You've heard it when you did it once.
But if you haven't listened to.

Speaker 2 (02:22:04):
The whole show, I'll have it on for the for
my dog.

Speaker 1 (02:22:08):
Yeah, have your show.

Speaker 2 (02:22:09):
I think it's good. I think it's I think if
you leave the house, of course, have your voice got one.

Speaker 1 (02:22:15):
It's phenomenal.

Speaker 3 (02:22:16):
She likes it.

Speaker 1 (02:22:17):
She likes to hear the and as does do thousands
of people go ahead. Yeah, I'm a big fan. I
fan boy.

Speaker 2 (02:22:25):
It's going very well. It's going things are good. Fifty
six years ago today, the same day that The Brady
Bunch of premieres on ABC Television, the Beatles released Abbey Road.
It was there eleventh album. Can you name the two
biggest hits from Abbey Road, Boy, I'm Not Together one,
that's one of them. Good something, Nope.

Speaker 1 (02:22:47):
Penny Lane, there is a man, Okay, it was.

Speaker 2 (02:22:53):
The whole second side is like one song. No, that's
a Sergeant Pepper, right, but are we talking? Abbey Road Road,
Come Together and here comes the Sun Here Comes which
is almost kind of a trickle because I always thought
that was a George Harrison song, right right, very much him.

(02:23:13):
Thirty five years ago today, nineteen ninety. I thought this
was way before this, But it was nineteen ninety when
the Motion Picture Association announced the debut of the NC
seventeen rating, and that replaced our naughty sounding X. Yeah,
if your movie was rated ACTS, it's like.

Speaker 1 (02:23:31):
Oh geez, yeah, that's like that's porn.

Speaker 2 (02:23:34):
Yeah. In seventeen, I think was, you know, kind of
a softer wave of presenting.

Speaker 1 (02:23:43):
This is not so before that the same content that
was X is now NC seventeen. Yes, so whatever. That
just seems like, wow, we skipped a section. You know,
she'd have been something else because seventeen X X.

Speaker 2 (02:24:01):
Wow are there any in C seventeen does that even A?

Speaker 1 (02:24:04):
I don't know if that happens anymore. I think they've
kind of gone, ah, we're going to hell in a
hand basket. That's nobody needs it. In C seventeen, yeah,
it's it's rated. Do we have hard something?

Speaker 2 (02:24:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:24:17):
Yeah, so are so R is worse than X because
if X was was there no R back then or no?

Speaker 2 (02:24:26):
No, they had all it was.

Speaker 1 (02:24:27):
It was it was g PGG general Yeah, then R
then X, And so now X is R.

Speaker 2 (02:24:36):
No, X is nothing. X is nothing the equivalent X
is in C seventeen basically, but if X.

Speaker 1 (02:24:44):
Is inc now we're doing math, X is in C seventeen,
R is worse than in C seventeen.

Speaker 2 (02:24:49):
No no R no no, no. R is R is restricted.
So and a seventeen year old can go, but they
have to have their parents' permission. In C seventeen is
absolutely no one.

that came out. I think it was called eight Days
Out or five Days Out, where they would take like
the Dog Show and they document here's what happens five
days out, four days out, three days off. And one
of them was one of those tournaments where it's like
an arena. This is the first time I'd ever heard
of it, where and they all these teams come in
from all over the world to play against each other

(02:26:33):
on a computer game, and crowd people are in the
crowds and stuff. But Rick Fox was the owner of
that team, and I remember I just thought it was
very cool the way he described it. His son, he
you know, he's got a family. His son figured he'd
play basketball with him, but he wasn't in basketball. He said,
well then I'll get into what he's into, and that
then he became, you know, in gaming and owning a team.
