Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
I hate football!

Speaker 2 (00:12):
I hate football! Hi, it's 74 today. You might want
to grab a hoodie on your way out the door
this morning.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Hey, a little chilly.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Kelly, I want to start this morning. Would you like
a little story time, Kelly?

Speaker 3 (00:24):
I would love it.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Okay, let me... Gather around, kids! Come on. I want
to tell you a little tale. It's a tale of
two friends. It's a tale of two sports fans. Over here,
we've got Giddy Goosey. And then over here, we have

(00:45):
Ragein' Rick. And these two friends and sports fans had
very different weekends. Giddy Goose, he had a perfect weekend.
Ragein' Rick. Didn't I have a perfect weekend? Giddy goosey.
Nothing could have gone better. Everything went right. Rage and Rick.

(01:11):
Not a single thing went right for him. It was
a very sad, sad weekend for one of these two people.
And you know, that's just the story of life sometimes.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
I noticed he didn't do this last week. When the
roles were completely reversed.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
Not really.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
No, he didn't. But at the same time, the first
week of whatever. These were much different games.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
You can't compare Ball State.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Right, exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
I'm not trying to come down on Michigan's side. God forbid.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
However, I will say. someday the ball does not bounce
in your direction that's very true some days you decide
hey we're not going to kick a field goal goal
who needs those three points we'll just hot dog and
try to get those two yards by.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Sheer brute force wide receiver.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Those three points.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
At the end of the game yeah wide receiver you
for sure kicker you not so much oh man that's
a that's a The fourth year in a row now,
I think, that some major game was not won by
the field goal kicker. Should never come down to that. Hey,
you're right. You're right.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
When you play not to lose for the entire fourth quarter,
that's what happens.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
It does happen. That is true.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Anyways.

Speaker 5 (02:37):
I think you need to revisit your play not to
lose strategy because we lost.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Yeah, that's what it usually does.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It doesn't work that way. Absolutely. How are you, Kelly? Great.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
Fine.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Oh, really?

Speaker 3 (02:50):
It was a great full weekend.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Good.

Speaker 5 (02:55):
Yeah, I did feel bad for my husband about the loss.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
It was kind of heartbreaking. I was in bed. I
went to bed in the second quarter.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I was tired.

Speaker 5 (03:05):
But I did get up when there were, I think,
four minutes left. And it was before they had.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
Scored that, you know, touchdown.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Right.

Speaker 5 (03:13):
And then eventually I saw they were at the one-yard line.
And I was like, oh, this is not going our
way tonight.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, I went to bed in the third quarter. Woke
up the next morning going. Oh, wow. Wait, what?

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Oh, you missed all the fun.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was asleep. And then, yeah, I didn't.
I don't know, we ended up talking after the Lions game,
and I was like.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
Yeah, we dropped to sixth in the new poll.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Yeah, I mean, it's not like you were going to
fall that far.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
I feel like we'll see this team again.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
If things line up, there's a very good chance. Absolutely.

Speaker 5 (03:47):
How about Michigan has a better record than we do
right now?

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, I know. I couldn't have, you know... Believe me,
I was one of them that was sitting watching the
game going... Dear God, what's going to happen? How bloody
is this going to get?

Speaker 4 (04:02):
I think your dog was worried about how bloody she
was going to get.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
I don't know if anybody's seen that video yet.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
You didn't see the video on TikTok? Yeah. That was
one of only two times she came down to the basement.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
That made my day yesterday.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
She avoided the basement a couple times because we've got
the way our basement works. When you go down the steps,
you go down like half the steps, and then you
make a U-turn to go down the other half of steps.
So she would get to that middle section and be like, nope,
I ain't going down there. And she'd turn around and
walk the other way.

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Basically like checking on you to make sure everything was okay,
that she wasn't in trouble.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Yeah, kind of. Kind of. And then she almost ended
up getting, I don't know, shaken baby syndrome.

Speaker 6 (04:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Holding her head. I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
That's when she was like, yeah, I'm going up and
find mom. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
She was out. Yeah, she was definitely out. But yeah.
watched a game with the boys. It was a great,
great weekend.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
Very busy week.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Lots to do.

Speaker 4 (04:56):
Oh, good for you. Oh, good for you.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
All week long, we've got Smashing Pumpkins, 7.20 every single morning.
We're going to give you the Smashing Pumpkins song of
the day. and what hour you need to be listening
so you can be calling number 9 and win those
tickets for the show at the Shot coming up September
30th if you want to be there for that. Right now,
let's go with Blitz Morning Trivia, Thick.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
All right, $ 25 off for grabs, two waterbeds and stuff
if you're the first one to text in the correct answer.
I don't know if Goose has heard about this. I
can't wait to find out what he thinks about it.
But here's the question.

Speaker 7 (05:30):
AMC is creating a new TV series. that is set
decades after what very popular 1991 movie. So we're going
to make this series from the movie, but it's going
to be decades after the movie. First one to text
in that movie at 800-821-9970, you will win the gift card.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
All right, let's.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Get that answer for Bliss Morning Trivia Thick. All right.

Speaker 7 (05:52):
The question was, AMC is creating a new TV series
that is set.

Speaker 4 (05:57):
Decades after what very popular 1991 movie?

Speaker 2 (06:01):
I am an FBI agent. I know, man.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
Isn't it wild?

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Point break.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Utah, give me two.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
What do you think?

Speaker 2 (06:14):
Um, okay.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
Do you know the premise here at all?

Speaker 2 (06:16):
No.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Did you know about this?

Speaker 2 (06:17):
I read about it. I thought it was going to
be a movie sequel. I didn't know it was going
to be a TV show. I saw a headline that
said they were returning.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
So, yeah, decades after the original film, the series follows
a mysterious ex-pro surfer who is recruited by the FBI.
So he's already a pro surfer in this case. And
he's recruited by the FBI to infiltrate a new heist
crew that was inspired by the ex-presidents.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Okay, yeah. So.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
Basically a TV series of the same movie decades later
with different people.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Just be way, way better than the Point Break movie
that they remade in, I don't know, what was it, 2019? Oh,
I didn't see it. Oh, God. Yeah? Oh, don't waste
your time.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
So this was a complete remake. Nothing, it wasn't like
an extension or.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
No, it was, yeah, it was a, you know, yeah,
a remake. All right. Their own twist on the story,
and it was awful.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
The series will air on AMC and stream on AMC +.
No casting has been announced at this time. Justin Arrowood
from Waverly, first one to text in the correct answer
gets the 25 bucks to waterbeds and stuff.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Congratulations. I think it was last week we told you
that TSA is starting a new, what they're calling a
pilot program to try and allow people, some people... Back to, like,
the gates. So if you have a family member taken off,
you can join them at the gate again. But you
have to have TSA pre-check. And you have to go
online and fill out the form, like, one to three
days beforehand to get pre-approved. But that might open the

(07:42):
gates a little bit to more, I don't know, airport freedom,
if you will. Well, they are not done yet because
another rollback is coming. It looks like they're going to
remove the restrictions on water bottles. Now going through security.
So you don't have to chug your water before you
get through TSA. So it could happen soon, but it
won't affect all passengers. Because yet again, you have to

(08:04):
have TSA pre-check. So they kind of have your background
a little bit. And they know that you're, well, they
assume you're not nefarious or doing anything bad. And saying that,
you know, a lot of people said they're just trying
to make their money to get you to buy water.
You know, once you get past the gate, you have
to go to one of those newsstands and pay $ 7. 00.

(08:25):
for your, you know, DeSanti or whatever. And so now
they're like, it's about time. Why did it take so long?
Because it's been, what, 20 years or whatever? Well, 25 years.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
See, now, I don't mind not being able to go
to the gate. It makes it easier on me. Kick
you out, you know, drive up. You don't just slow down.
You just slow down, get them out of the car,
and you're back on your way home.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Because you're already paying for parking when you get there.
And if you do... The parking is going to be
at least a half mile, if not more, from the gate. So, yeah,
I don't want to walk you there and then wave goodbye,
and then I've got to walk all the way back
to the car?

Speaker 3 (09:00):
You have an excuse now. Oh, well, I mean, you know, 9-11.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Kelly doesn't need some long goodbye. No.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
I already said my goodbyes.

Speaker 8 (09:08):
Get out.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Get out. I'm not even stopping at the arrival. I'm
just kicking you out the door. You've got wheels on
the bottom of your luggage. I'll roll it to you.
Get to going. Anyways, keep an eye out for that.
That water restriction may be lifted sooner rather than later.
As for now, that 3-1-1 rule with the 3.3 ounces
or one carrying case, whatever, that rule is still in place.

(09:31):
We'll see when that gets eliminated. They said they're not
preparing to do that anytime soon, so you can be
prepared for that. So good luck on your travels.

Speaker 9 (09:40):
Not so breaking news. The news already broke. We're trying
to put it back together.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Uh, Kelly... If you were to take a guess, how
many stores slash businesses have your phone number for a
loyalty program? You collect points or... Oh, gosh. There's a lot,
isn't there? Yeah. Yeah, there's so many. You can't go
in a place now without them asking for your phone

(10:07):
number or some sort of loyalty program.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
Right.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
And it seems like it's literally everywhere, including your local
drug dealer. 27-year-old drug dealer in Minnesota named Andy Salinka
was dealing psychedelic mushrooms along with other drugs. And here's
the thing. He was recently caught when he sold to
an undercover officer. He had a large stash of magic mushrooms,

(10:33):
varying marijuana products, cash, digital scales. He even had a pistol.
And then he also had a little stack of cards
because Mr. Salinka, Mr. Andy Slinka had a loyalty program
for his best customers. Basically, it was like a coffee
punch card for every, you know, nine ounces you buy,

(10:58):
you get a tenth. Although a lot of the dispensaries
have those now, too.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
Oh, do they?

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
Oh, I didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Yeah. They have loyalty programs in New York. That's so funny. So,
I mean, if they can do it, why can't your
little corner guy?

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Yeah, he can appreciate his customers.

Speaker 6 (11:12):
I mean.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
There's a rule that it takes four visits to a
restaurant to become a loyal customer slash fan. So if
you can get your people to come back and buy
their shrooms or their marijuana from you, then why not?
Although it reminded me of a story many, many, many
moons ago when little Goosey was enjoying the fruits of

(11:36):
the earth. And I remember one time, I woke up
on December 25th, and about noon, my phone buzzed, and
I got a Merry Christmas text from my guy, and
I was like, okay, that's too much. That's not this
type of relationship. I know that it's gone on too

(12:00):
frequently if you're sending me Merry Christmas text messages.

Speaker 5 (12:03):
Didn't you get a text from a bartender once asking
if you were okay or where were you, where you been?

Speaker 2 (12:10):
There's a chance. There's a possibility. Yeah, you told that story.
I remember that. Story number two takes us over to
the UK where another story of someone not raising their hand.
Multiple people saw this advertisement and no one said, hey,
bad idea. That is because the Chester Zoo in the

(12:33):
UK recently started a predator tour featuring iconic predators of
the animal kingdom and their prey. in a very unique
guided tour. It involved coming face-to-face with some of the
zoo's most iconic animals, including some tigers that you could
get kind of up close and personal with. They suggested
buying tickets online, and that's why people are talking about

(12:56):
this story, because when you logged on to their website,
to the Chester Zoo, and you clicked on the predator tour,
you had two options. You had the adult predator tour,
And the Child Predator Tour.

Speaker 6 (13:10):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
Well, oops.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah. Lack of punctuation there. And people are like, hey,
wait a minute. What do you mean you have a
Child Predator Tour?

Speaker 4 (13:21):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Who are we going to visit on the Child Predator Tour? Yeah.
It went viral all over the internet. And finally, a
spokesperson for the Chester Zoo said, yeah, that was unfortunately named.
Unfortunately named is an understatement. They have since corrected it.
And there is no longer a Child Predator Tour. You

(13:44):
don't need that on your daily schedule. Come on by
for the Child Predator Tour. We'll pull the collar there.
That's your not-so-breaking news. 99.7 The Blitz. If you've listened
to the show for any amount of time, there's about

(14:06):
a 93.7% chance you've heard me sneeze live on the air.
Because I have noticed, ever since I moved back to
the Midwest, back in like 2020, 2021, allergies have... I'd
never had allergies growing up, ever. And then the sneezing
has picked up, the stuffy nose, and now over the

(14:27):
past like two years, it's gotten... It's gotten pretty bad
to the point now where I finally admitted myself and
I take an allergy pill every morning now. And I'm
still in here, you know, blowing my nose or sneezing
out of nowhere. And on Saturday, we were doing some
cleaning around the house and Nora ordered some new bed

(14:48):
sheets because I guess she didn't realize or whatever. We
kind of had like these microfiber or something. They were
very warm. And so she found a different set that
was a thinner material, cooler, because we both run kind
of hot. And as she put the new sheets on
and changed the pillowcases, I hear her yell from upstairs.

(15:09):
And she goes, nope, done. We're going today. And when
you walk up our stairs to go upstairs, you get
to the halfway point and you turn. And so there's
a little, you know, middle section. So if you're at
the bottom, you can look up and there's like a banister. Okay.
So you could toss me the key or whatever kind
of thing. And I go and I'm like, what? And

(15:31):
all of a sudden I hear thump as I'm walking
towards the stairs because she took my pillow and she
threw it over the stairs downstairs. And she goes, no,
we're going today and getting you a new one. And
now I think that might be one of the reasons
that this whole nose, head situation.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Has taken off.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Because I don't know how long you're supposed to have
a pillow. But I bought new pillows and I took
a picture of the new pillow next to the old pillow.
And oh my God.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
There's a color difference.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Oh my God.

Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
My pillow is the color... of a baby diaper after
it's eaten Indian food.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
Yeah, just too bad it's too long.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Oh, it is the brownish, most yellowish, puke greenish. Oh,
it was not good.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Wait a minute. You not use a pillowcase?

Speaker 2 (16:31):
I do, of course.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
And the pillow still?

Speaker 10 (16:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
I mean, they get.

Speaker 5 (16:36):
Oils from your skin, dust mites, dead skin cells, all
that kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
All of it.

Speaker 9 (16:41):
All of it.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
It gets in there.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
You're supposed to change out your pillow. We hang on
to ours too long as well. It's just a pain
to go buy good new pillows.

Speaker 10 (16:49):
What?

Speaker 3 (16:49):
They can get expensive.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
And I loved my pillow because I'm a very squishy
pillow type person.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
You find a perfect one, you don't want to get
rid of it.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Right. And after so long, it loses some of its
shape and it becomes that just boneless thing that I like.
And now I got new pillows and they're not quite
the same. But it was completely necessary. I want to see.
I have the picture somewhere. Oh, let's see. I want
to show it. It's so not good. Oh, I've got

(17:21):
to find it. Shoot. I'm going to try and post it.
Maybe I'll post it. It's embarrassing. Like, how often... That's
my question. 800-821-9970. Before I Google this, how often are
you supposed to change pillows?

Speaker 3 (17:32):
You can get one of those... It's like a pre.

Speaker 5 (17:37):
cover that zips closed and then put your pillowcase over that.
That's supposed to make your pillows last a little longer.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
It's like a dual pillowcase.

Speaker 5 (17:48):
A pillow cover that zips shut and then you put
the pillowcase on.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Katie had the best description of my pillow your pillow
isn't supposed to look like a civil war bandage that
is exactly that is exactly what my pillow looked like
a civil war bandage so how long have you had
it you.

Speaker 4 (18:10):
Know i mean guess can you give an estimate just
a guess over 10 years i.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Would say 10 years oh okay I would say somewhere
probably around 10 years.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
They say that about mattresses, too, that collect the same thing.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Dust mites, skin.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
Body oils, drool, whatever is going on in your body
is being absorbed.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Well, and that's the thing. I heard that mattresses are
about eight years from what I understand.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yeah, we'll hang on to a mattress forever.

Speaker 11 (18:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
But a pillow. And here's the other thing. Because of
my allergies that have gotten worse, a lot of times
my nose is stuffed. I drool a lot now when
I sleep. So all that drool and mouth fungus is
just getting into the pillow and soaking in.

Speaker 4 (18:50):
Would you like to hear the signs you need a
new pillow?

Speaker 11 (18:53):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
All right.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
Failed fold test. Fold the pillow in half. If it
does not spring back to its original shape right away,
it is time for a new one.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Okay, see, I disagree with that because I want a
squishy pillow. I don't want that folding ability. Physical wear.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
Look for permanent lumps, thin spots, or yellow stains from
sweat and oils.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
Check, check, check, check.

Speaker 6 (19:14):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
Physical discomfort if you wake up with a stiff neck,
shoulder pain, or increased allergy and sneezing symptoms.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Yep. No neck pain or anything, but 100%.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
Is your pillow, do you know, is it synthetic or polyester?

Speaker 2 (19:29):
I think it's some sort of down.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
Down and feather?

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
Okay, then you need to replace those every two to
three years.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Oh, yeah, not even remotely close. Nope. Basically, I just
got my oil changed at 25,000 miles. Right. Is what
I did.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
That's what you did.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
That's exactly what I did, yep.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
Well, I mean, we hang on to ours too long
as well.

Speaker 5 (19:47):
I'm with you. There is a point where you're... like,
that you hit where Nora hit. There's like, no, this
is not going to continue for another minute.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
She snapped. She snapped. Yeah. My, my, pillowcase was the
color of a fungus toenail like oh yeah that's bad.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
It was i'm really curious to know if you'll notice
a difference.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
I gotta find the picture of yeah.

Speaker 5 (20:13):
You sneeze as much now how do you feel this
morning after sleeping on a new pillow last.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Night oh i've been blowing my nose this morning so
not a hundred percent so well but yeah over time
Your body.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Needs to regenerate, so I'll ask you in a week.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yes, exactly. Give it time to kick in, and my
nose reset, and then we'll go from there. All right,
some of the blips.

Speaker 11 (20:36):
And now, the three things you need to know before
you go.

Speaker 5 (20:40):
Several Franklin County communities are being treated for mosquitoes after
positive West Nile virus samples were found. Spraying planned tonight
and tomorrow night in Dublin, Upper Arlington, Hilliard, Grandview Heights,
and Bexley, along with Perry, Sharon, and Prairie townships. The
Franklin County Health Department says the insecticide being used does
not pose a serious risk to people or pets. Kennedy

(21:01):
Center officials say the performing arts complex could close as
early as tomorrow because of serious financial problems. The Washington
Post reports the center's board is considering a shutdown at
a special meeting tomorrow that over the next few weeks
will be unable to make payroll or pay maintenance contracts.
Trustees are also being asked to close the main building
after a section of ceiling plaster fell about 60 feet

(21:24):
into the grand foyer.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
Is it foyer or foyer?

Speaker 2 (21:29):
Foyer.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
You're so fancy.

Speaker 5 (21:34):
President Trump said to have offered to raise the necessary
funds for the center if his name is added back
to the main signage on the front of the center.
Last week, the story exploded that an AI researcher quit
Anthropic over the widespread belief among those working on the
technology that the speed of advancements could lead to the
demise of humanity in a literal sense.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
Sooner rather than later.

Speaker 5 (21:57):
27-year-old Jacob Coxon says he believes if the current rate
of progress doesn't slow down, there's, quote, a strong chance
that we could all die in the immediate future.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
So how would this happen? How could this possibly happen?

Speaker 5 (22:12):
He says both OpenAI and Anthropic are recklessly racing to
build AI systems they cannot fully control or comprehend, that
advanced AI could take over and cripple power grids, financial systems,
and defense networks. Superhuman AI could design and synthesize novel,
highly lethal pathogens. AI could gradually monopolize global economic resources,

(22:38):
cutting humans off from essential food, medicine, and housing. Uh,
and policymakers right now are say they're focused on slowing
things down and imposing new guardrails.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Basically everything we've seen in movies and TV shows about AI,
but you know what? No one's going to pump the
brakes because there are a select few that know what
they're doing. And the select few are also pretty greedy
and they're not going to stop.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
So, and it is a race.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
Make no mistake.

Speaker 9 (23:05):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
That's another thing. A lot of people think it's a, uh,
You know, this idea that China is pushing all this,
you know, we're all going to die from it so
that we will stop so that they can beat us.
And I'm just saying that.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
Oh, they say that about data centers, too.

Speaker 5 (23:19):
They've got us all freaked about data centers so that
China can take over data centers.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
I do like the fact that Congress wants a hearing
with all these A.I. bigwigs because they want. They want
them to testify. You know, you can't just say something
like this and then keep going. And we're, Hey, we
need to know some stuff here, man. So I hope
they get this hearing and get these people out there to,
you know, tell.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Us what, why they're telling us this pump the brakes.
All right.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Well, I shared with you at the beginning of the
show that I had just the most amazing weekend, just
overall in terms of, you know, my team's winning and,
Got to go out and golf. Not only did I
get to go out and golf yesterday morning, but I
ran into, I got paired up with another guy who
had a caddy as well. Because Nora comes with me

(24:10):
when I golf. She loves to sit and soak up
the sun and listen to music. She makes cocktails. It's
a great thing we love to do together. And so yesterday,
when we went golfing, we ran into another guy, and
he had his girlfriend with him. And she was playing
caddy too, just soaking up the sun.

Speaker 11 (24:26):
So.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
We had a great time.

Speaker 4 (24:28):
Oh, did she make another friend?

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Yes. Yeah, that's exactly it.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
That's what she does.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
And at one point, neither of us had been to
this golf course, and we're on, I think we were
on like 13 or 14, and we go to make
a turn. We're following the cart path, and we tee off,
and we play. We play the hole, and we get
to the next hole, and we're like, wait a second.
I swear to God, we... we already did this. We
made a wrong turn. So we went from like 14

(24:56):
back to 11. And I was like, Hey, that's fine
by me. Reminds me of my last ship to Tijuana.
If I'm going to pay for it, I want all
the extra holes. Like I'm all in. So we just
had a great time. And then we left the golf
course and went right over to, I'm not even going
to name the place. Cause I don't want anyone to have, um,

(25:19):
unfortunate thoughts of this place or think about what happened
inside of this location because we went to watch the
Lions game because I don't have NFL ticket so if
I turn on the TV I'm going to get either
the Steelers or the Browns or something local I'm not
going to get the Lions game so went to a
sports bar that has a lot of TVs and I
knew I'd be able to watch the game and halftime

(25:41):
comes and we had some food I had a hot
dog at the golf course and had some potato skins
at said location and And Goosey had to use the bathroom.
So it's halftime, and I go into the bathroom. And
this particular location, even though it is a decent-sized sports bar,
only has one stall in the men's room. And I

(26:02):
was using said stall. And that is when I hear
the door just... Boom! The door to the bathroom is, like,
kicked open.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Uh-oh.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
And I hear the shake of the handle, and I'm like, hey.
And then I hear, no! No!

Speaker 4 (26:19):
Uh-oh.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
Oh, buddy. First come, first serve.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
You remember the movie Bridesmaids? Yes. Oh, no.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
Oh, no.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
And something happens while they're trying on dresses. Oh, yes.
And they all have to run into the single bathroom.
And the toilet was already being used, so someone had
to use the sink.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
No, he didn't. No, he didn't.

Speaker 8 (26:49):
Oh, no.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
This poor person.

Speaker 6 (26:51):
Oh, no.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
This poor person.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Oh, the poor sports bar.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
The poor person. The poor sports bar.

Speaker 5 (26:57):
What else are you going to do when you're in
an emergency situation?

Speaker 2 (27:01):
I might have used the urinal and not the sink,
but I guess in that frantic moment.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
Something with a drain.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah, that's exactly it. That's exactly it.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
The trash can, though.

Speaker 11 (27:13):
I mean, I guess you could.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Have done that and then wrapped it up.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
It's one of those, like, against the wall, like you're not.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Right. You can't back up into it.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
I am so sorry, sir. I don't know your name.
I don't know where you're from. I don't know anything
about you. I stayed at the stall. I did not
leave the stall. I'm not coming out of here. No, no.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
Did he have the potato skins, too?

Speaker 2 (27:37):
I have no idea. Oh, man. He ended up leaving.
He ended up leaving. And I... Well, so I apologize
to that gentleman. I apologize to said sports bar.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
You know, I mean, OK, when you pass by, was
everything fine? Did it require some.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Cleaning crew? I, I assume that this person informed someone
because I did see employees. I didn't see anything horrible, really.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
So you waited till he was.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
He's probably glad.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
It needed to be sanitized, though.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
It did, yes. And there were employees in there. So
this person must have said something.

Speaker 5 (28:21):
I'm not washing my hands to get E.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Coli.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
Are you saying something? If that's you, are you going
out and telling the employees what happened?

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Here's what I.

Speaker 5 (28:31):
Wouldn't you just go, like, hey, I think somebody was
in real trouble because... I don't know what happened, but
somebody needs to.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
I'm.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Probably blaming it on someone else. You're right. Yeah, I'm
not going. I tried, but there was someone, and then
I was sorry. No, I'm just.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
Oh, if I'm the person who did it, I thought
you meant it. Would you tell?

Speaker 2 (28:51):
No, no, no. If you're the person.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
Who did it... I'm walking out and leaving the restaurant.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
You're just gone. Gone.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
As fast as possible, I am leaving.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Head down, just not look anyone in the eye, and
just walk out.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Cameras, though.

Speaker 10 (29:04):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
I don't care. I don't have to talk to anybody.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
That's true. I... I'm definitely saying something, but I'm.

Speaker 11 (29:09):
Not admitting fault.

Speaker 3 (29:10):
Yeah, don't know. I wouldn't know.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Not admitting fault.

Speaker 4 (29:12):
Although you've got to pay your bill. Oh, that's a
terrible situation.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
That is an awful, awful situation. How did you refer
to it? You ruined somebody's... Ruined someone's day. It's probably
the worst day of his life.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Yes, that's what it was.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
He just had to poop in the sink at a
public sports bar.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
You gave him a story to tell for the rest
of his life.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Absolutely. Oh, it's coming up. I will say this. Thankfully
for him, I did not hear anyone else walk in.
while it was happening. Oh, can you imagine?

Speaker 4 (29:38):
You're just at the same, like, avert your eyes!

Speaker 3 (29:42):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (29:43):
I'm really sorry. I didn't know what to do.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 5 (29:45):
Just as it's happening.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
You're like, I know. You think I wanted this? This
wasn't my choice. Right. I'm not here because I want
to be. I'm not happy about it. Oh, my God.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
Oh, my gosh. The trauma.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah. So you didn't see anything? Nope.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
Okay. Well, maybe he did a good job.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
I guess, yeah. Did you hear the sink run? I
also didn't look.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
Did you hear the sink run?

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Yes. Okay. He washed it down.

Speaker 5 (30:12):
I hate to use the phrase waffle stomp, but there's
something that's got to happen here to get that down
the sink.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
You're either waffle stomping or hand scooping.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
You would have known if it was in the trash
or something.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
Probably. Yeah, you would have known. Probably, yeah. So, anyways,
to you, sir, I am sorry. It's not your fault.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
You didn't get anything wrong.

Speaker 10 (30:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
You just had to walk in there before he did.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
You know, I would have rushed as fast as possible,
but you caught me mid-slide and there was nothing.

Speaker 11 (30:46):
You can only do so much.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
You can only do so much, sir.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
I can't believe a place, a big sports bar only
has one stall.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
I'm shocked.

Speaker 4 (30:52):
Is it the only bathroom?

Speaker 2 (30:54):
It's the only bathroom.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Well, maybe they learned a tough lesson here.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Yeah, they might do a little. There might be an
expansion project coming for said sports bar in the near future. Because, yeah,
for the size of this place.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
It can't be the first time that's happened in a
single stall bathroom.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
And this is a place, by the way, not only
is it a decent-sized sports bar, it is also packed.
This isn't like just a place where a couple people go,
this place is packed. One stall, that's insane. Yeah. Yeah,
and you're talking, you look at the menu, you're talking
wings and burgers and hot spicy food. Yeah. Yeah, hold on,

(31:32):
said Sports Bar. You need to expand.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
Now that I think about it. I mean, isn't that
against some code or something?

Speaker 2 (31:37):
Yeah, don't you have so many stalls per mask capacity?

Speaker 3 (31:40):
It's a pro-code situation.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
Anyways, all right. Well, sorry again, sir, and good luck
with the rest. busy busy week ahead so I wanted
to make sure I got some really good rest by
the way that was today by Smashing Pumpkins you're going
to hear that song again between noon and 1 today
when you do you call number 9 at 800-821-9970 and
you're going to win tickets for the Smashing Pumpkins and

(32:04):
we've got your Smashing Pumpkins song every single day this
week coming up right around 720 alright my gummy thoughts
took some extra gummies last night unfortunately they kicked in
before I fell asleep and I wanted to share some
of the thoughts that ran through my mind last night
like I thought about this While trying to doze off,
I just learned there are 5 million Sicilian people on

(32:26):
a small island in Italy. And that is the biggest
number I've ever heard of.

Speaker 10 (32:34):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (32:34):
5 million Sicilian. 5 million Sicilian.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Until I learned that there are 215 million Brazilian.

Speaker 5 (32:38):
That completely blew my mind.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Biggest number I've ever heard of. Thought about this before
falling asleep last night. If scientists ever decide to try
and combine cheetah and crab genes, things could go sideways
really fast.

Speaker 5 (33:10):
It's like the fastest moving STD in the world.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Is that it? I don't get it.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
Crabs?

Speaker 10 (33:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
At the bottom of the ocean?

Speaker 12 (33:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
You know they walk sideways, right? Oh, okay.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
I gotcha. Things could go sideways real quick. Oh, my gosh.

Speaker 5 (33:28):
I thought you meant crabs like the STD.

Speaker 3 (33:32):
Where am I? I've been around you too long.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
Well.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
I've been around you too long.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
You went right to the STD. I did.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
I didn't even think of a real crab.

Speaker 4 (33:40):
You know, I mean, if you gave them that kind
of speed.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
That is true.

Speaker 10 (33:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
We'd really be in trouble.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
I love that you went straight to the STD.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
I'm sorry. It is your bad influence on me.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Poor little church-going rule-following Kelly goes right.

Speaker 3 (33:56):
To the STD.

Speaker 4 (33:57):
Man, it would be an itchy world.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
Man, my job is complete. I can leave the show now.
I've completely flipped Kelly to the dark side.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
Oh, my gosh.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
I thought about this before falling asleep last night. I'm
really mad at my poetry teacher. For saying that I'd
be terrible because of my dyslexia. But so far, I've
made three vases and an ashtray. And finally.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
These are real thinkers today.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
They are. I'm telling you. I took an extra. And finally,
this is the last thought I had before dozing off
last night. It's really messed up. That spice is the
only thing that, like, your butt can taste. Like, you
know when you had spicy food. Yeah. Why? Come on.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
Wouldn't it be nice if, like, chocolate did the same thing? Yeah. Like,
you're sitting there and you're like, oh, hey.

Speaker 4 (35:06):
Steak.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 11 (35:07):
Lobster.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Got his little pizza. A little recap of the meal.

Speaker 4 (35:14):
That would be so good.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
But only spicy food. I'd like to sit on the
toilet and go... And then I dozed off to sleep
last night.

Speaker 3 (35:29):
To end this segment with a Bible verse.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Those are my gummy thoughts. I don't know if you
saw the video over the weekend. It went kind of viral.
There was a... A Michael Jackson impersonator. And he's doing
a little dance and he's got the fan on the
floor and it's blowing up his shirt, you know, behind
him in Michael Jackson fashion. And then all of a

(35:54):
sudden from his right hand side speaker comes over and
just kablooey. Right, he goes tumbling. Clearly had to be
knocked out cold. I mean, he had an entire speaker
come sideways and Hit you with a haymaker. And it
got me thinking, I have never been knocked out cold.

(36:19):
I've never been unconscious before, besides getting whatever they put
in your veins when I got my wisdom teeth cut
out to knock you out. That's the only surgery I've
ever had. Same here. But I've never hit my head.
I've never been hit. I've never been knocked out cold. Kelly? Kelly?

Speaker 3 (36:39):
No, I did get a concussion.

Speaker 5 (36:41):
I landed on my head when I was doing gymnastics.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
That explains a lot.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Yes, it does.

Speaker 5 (36:46):
I really felt like I could do a standing back flip.
I just felt like I could do it. And I
tried and I landed on my head. And I saw stars.
I was like dizzy. I saw black.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
But I did not lose consciousness.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Didn't lose consciousness. Okay. Thick. Everyone knocked out. No.

Speaker 4 (37:07):
Same deal. Wisdom teeth.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:09):
And boy, going under was so much fun. When they
put you under?

Speaker 2 (37:13):
I was young.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
Just that 10 seconds, man, right there is crazy.

Speaker 3 (37:17):
I hate that feeling.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Oh, I love it. The only thing I remember is
waking up, bawling my eyes out, and they said that's normal.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
That happens to me, too.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
Yeah, it's a normal reaction.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
You do all kinds of crazy stuff when you come
out of that. But did you see Kyler Murray on
Sunday yesterday, the Vikings quarterback?

Speaker 2 (37:32):
No.

Speaker 4 (37:34):
He got a horrible concussion. But as soon as he
got hit, his whole body just went stiff.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:39):
It was bizarre. When I saw his body, I'm like,
that's a concussion.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
Yeah, how cold.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
He was out.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
You see that a lot in UFC and stuff. When
a couple kicks to the head, people just go rigor mortis. 800-821-9970.
I want to know, how did you get knocked out?
How were you knocked out cold? Let's see. This person says,
I got knocked out during a play in college. I

(38:05):
played a blind juggler and I was being helped up
by my assistant, had a drum strapped to his waist
and clocked me under the chin when I was getting
lifted up and got hit with the drum and just
knocked him out cold. Oh, no. Let's see. This person...

(38:26):
I'm sorry, go ahead. What do you got?

Speaker 4 (38:27):
Oh, JC says, I've been knocked out for wisdom teeth
by alcohol and twice in a fight.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Okay, the fights are the one we're looking for.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Yeah, I want to know what... Yeah, did you just
get pummeled, hit to the right square, right to the jaw.

Speaker 5 (38:39):
Britt says, knocked myself out by sprinting full speed into
a wall of bleachers in high school.

Speaker 3 (38:45):
Oh, my God.

Speaker 10 (38:47):
Wait, why?

Speaker 3 (38:48):
I feel like that needs more context.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Yes, I want to know why.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Were you, like, looking for a ball like you were
turning over your shoulder? Yeah, that's what it was.

Speaker 11 (38:56):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
Bliss, hi, who's this?

Speaker 10 (38:59):
Hi, this is Dee.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
Dee?

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Yes. Hi, Dee. When did you get knocked out cold?

Speaker 12 (39:07):
When I was 20, I knocked myself out with a
soup bowl.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
Soup bowl?

Speaker 3 (39:12):
How did that happen?

Speaker 12 (39:13):
So I am very vertically challenged.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (39:20):
My mom and I, we were living.

Speaker 12 (39:21):
Together, and she had made ravioli, and I reached up
to grab a soup bowl out of the cabinet, and.

Speaker 10 (39:27):
I dropped it on the.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
Floor.

Speaker 12 (39:30):
My head.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Right on your head. Yes.

Speaker 12 (39:33):
Um, she said she heard a noise in the kitchen
and came out and she couldn't find me because I
had fallen and like I was in the corner in
between the cabinets.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
Oh, you just fell right in between the two.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
How long were you out? Do you know?

Speaker 12 (39:51):
At like three minutes.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
Dang, that's serious.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Like a soup bowl doesn't seem heavy enough, but I
guess if you get hit in the right spot, just night-night. Well,
I appreciate the call, Dee. Thank you so much. Have
a great one. Blitz, hi, who's this?

Speaker 10 (40:07):
Hi, this is Rocky.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Rocky, when did you get knocked out cold?

Speaker 10 (40:12):
In a very unexpected way.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Was it Clubber? Was it Apollo? Was it Drago? Sorry.

Speaker 10 (40:22):
It was actually Father's Day. We were heading to the
car to go out to eat with my kids. And
my youngest son was maybe six at the time. And
he goes, which car are we going on? And I'm
like going on.

Speaker 2 (40:39):
And so I.

Speaker 10 (40:40):
Hopped up on the car. When I jumped down, my
knee was locked and bent the wrong way. And snapped
all my tendons in my knee and I instantly passed out.

Speaker 5 (40:51):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
So that's like one of those pass out from shock
type situations. You went into shock. Exactly.

Speaker 10 (41:02):
When I woke up, there was a cop standing over
me and was like, Have you been drinking?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
I'm like, no.

Speaker 4 (41:08):
Oh, my God.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
Not at all. Man, that's all. How much pain does
it take to just go and knock? Oh, God, I
can't imagine. I appreciate the call, Rocky. Thank you so much.
Have a great one. Blitz, hi. Who's this? Hey, what's up, Deuce?

Speaker 10 (41:23):
Tony.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Hey, Tony, man. What's going on? How are you?

Speaker 3 (41:28):
You ever been knocked out?

Speaker 2 (41:30):
I can't say I have. Okay, well, we're... Yeah. I mean,
you're one of the lucky ones like us that has
not been knocked out cold, but we appreciate the call, man.
Thank you so much. Blitz, hi, who's this?

Speaker 9 (41:43):
Terry.

Speaker 2 (41:44):
Terry, what happened when you got knocked out cold?

Speaker 13 (41:48):
My friend, we were drinking, and my friend put me
in a chokehold jokingly. And I passed out on the floor.
Only time it's ever happened to me. I woke up
like the undertaker to my wife beating him up.

Speaker 4 (42:02):
I passed out drunk.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
I'll tell you what. A sleeper hold slash choke hold
done correctly takes seconds to work. I mean, yeah, you
can just be out before you know it. Right. Exactly. Exactly. Just.
Right spot, game over. Good for your wife for standing
up for you, though. I mean, that's a good woman

(42:28):
right there, really, to go after someone. I appreciate the call, man.
Thank you so much. Blitz, hi, who's this?

Speaker 8 (42:34):
Hey, I just wanted to tell you when I had
gotten knocked out.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah, who's this? Beth Ann. Hey, Beth Ann, when did
you get knocked out cold?

Speaker 8 (42:44):
Two times. Once I was running down the stairs in
a 200-year-old house which had low ceilings. And I knocked
myself cold out on the stairs, woke up looking at
the stairwell. I don't know how long I was out.
The second time was I got hit by a car.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
What?

Speaker 8 (43:05):
Yeah, I got hit by a car. Our cattle got
out on the road, and I was standing in the
road with a lantern. Everybody stopped. This drunk driver went around,
hit me. I rolled off the car, was in the ditch, out.
And woke up and then saw he had hit five
of the cattle.

Speaker 3 (43:24):
Oh, my gosh.

Speaker 10 (43:25):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
Please tell me this guy went to jail.

Speaker 9 (43:29):
Yes.

Speaker 10 (43:30):
Yes.

Speaker 8 (43:30):
And I was so beat up from the car, but
no broken bones.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
That's good. Well, congratulations on that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (43:37):
Oh, my gosh.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Nice tuck and roll move. Nice tuck and roll. Good
job on that. Well, I appreciate the call. Thank you
so much.

Speaker 3 (43:43):
Hey, Dustin said he's been hit by three cars. in
his life.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
Hey, Dustin, stay off the roads, man.

Speaker 5 (43:48):
Between the ages of 4 and 17, got hit three
times by a car and was knocked out every single time.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
Yeah, you need to just stay away from the roadways.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
You're at your limit now. You cannot afford another unconscious moment.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
No, you don't want another one. Blitz, hi, who's this?

Speaker 7 (44:03):
Donnie.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
Donnie, when were you knocked out cold?

Speaker 6 (44:07):
I got knocked out in a fight.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
A square haymaker right to the jawbone. That'll do it sometimes.

Speaker 11 (44:14):
It was Actually, about eight of them, yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
Oh, wow.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Okay, yeah. Eight haymakers will do that.

Speaker 3 (44:19):
He doesn't go down with just one goose.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
No.

Speaker 11 (44:22):
Takes eight.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Got a steel jaw there. That's a good one.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
How long were you out? Do you remember?

Speaker 6 (44:28):
I know I woke up and I thought I was
still in the fight.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
She kept swinging. Good for you. Fighter instincts.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
That's what you got to do. Well, I'm glad that
you came out of it at least seemingly unscathed. Everything's good?
You can still count to 12? No. Oh, all right.

Speaker 6 (44:50):
Fingers and toes.

Speaker 2 (44:51):
Yeah. All right. Well, I appreciate the call, man. I
hope you have a great rest of your week.

Speaker 4 (44:57):
800-821-9970.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
Blitz, hi, who's this? Hey, it's Mark. How you doing? Good, Mark.
When were you knocked out cold? Well, it wasn't me.

Speaker 6 (45:08):
It was about six years ago when I first moved
here to Ohio. A local politician who we will leave
nameless for her privacy passed out from a session of
adult funds.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Oh, wow.

Speaker 11 (45:25):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (45:25):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (45:26):
With you?

Speaker 2 (45:27):
I was going to say you know this personally because
you were the other half.

Speaker 6 (45:31):
I definitely was there. She had never been with a
pleasure dom and thought she was ready for the adult
leagues and it didn't happen that way for her.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
Wow!

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Oh my gosh, I wanted to know who this was.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
Okay. She tried to play major league ball and was
not ready. She was still in the minors.

Speaker 6 (45:51):
She was stuttering and speaking in a language that's never existed.
And the next thing you know, I was having to
like literally pour water on her to bring her back around.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Well, uh, good for you, sir. I mean, if you
have the ability to knock them out, good for you.

Speaker 4 (46:10):
That's what's, that's, uh, you blanked or silly.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Yes, pretty much. Yep. Well, uh, yeah, I'm glad you
left names out of it, but, uh, good for you. And, uh,
are you, are you still, uh, providing said services?

Speaker 6 (46:24):
Absolutely. And if Kelly's ever interested.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Definitely not.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
I am a happily married woman.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
Hang up on this man. You cannot talk to our
Kelly that way.

Speaker 4 (46:36):
Yeah, like it would make a difference whether you were
married or not. You were not taking his services.

Speaker 11 (46:40):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
That's true. It's true. Oh, my God.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
Kelly, not into the NFS. That did happen to Nora
one time. An NFS.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
A non-fatal strangulation.

Speaker 3 (46:56):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
Kelly's not into the NFS. He just flat out offered, Kelly.

Speaker 3 (47:03):
You got knocked the f.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
* * * out. Yeah, you did. It's 1987, The Blitz.

Speaker 11 (47:09):
And now, the three things you need to know before
you go.

Speaker 5 (47:13):
The National Weather Service confirmed a tornado touchdown in Guernsey
County during severe thunderstorms Wednesday.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Some damage was reported. No injuries. There have been 46
confirmed tornadoes in Ohio so far this year.

Speaker 5 (47:23):
Now, the average is about 21. So we're at 46.
But back in 2024, we had 74 confirmed tornadoes in
the year.

Speaker 3 (47:30):
So I don't know. For some reason, they're really whipping up.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
They say that now they're more easily able to detect
the EF0s and EF1s than they were before. So maybe
that's the reason for the increase. It's because they can
actually detect those, you know.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
Well, and, you know, it's funny. I'm not going to
get too deep into this, but that can be said
for so many things right now because so many people
are pointing out, well, this is happening way more and
this is happening way more and this is happening way more. Yeah,
we have better technology. So there's a good chance that
it was happening back then. Right. But we've got different
detection methods. Exactly. We test better now. We have more answers.

(48:08):
So it's not necessarily that we're getting more of. We're
just better at pointing it out. We're better at noticing.

Speaker 6 (48:15):
Right.

Speaker 5 (48:16):
A new report says Americans are tired, and some more
than others. A report from the CDC's National Center for
Health Statistics says about 71% of adults in the USA,
they have experienced fatigue on multiple days over the past
three months.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
Now, fatigue is not just being tired.

Speaker 5 (48:32):
It's basically that you are so physically and mentally exhausted
that it does not improve health.

Speaker 3 (48:37):
With added sleep or rest.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (48:39):
Yeah, so that's what that is.

Speaker 5 (48:41):
But the lead author of the report says fatigue is
one of the most frequently reported health concerns in primary
care visits in the U.S. Backlash over the weekend against
an ad that bedding company Novig put out last week
starring a naked Sydney Sweeney covering herself only with sports
equipment like footballs, tennis rackets, hockey gear. At one point,

(49:01):
she's sitting stark naked on a baseball hoop. Looks very uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Basketball hoop. Sorry. I'd love to be on a baseball hoop.

Speaker 3 (49:07):
So would I. On a basketball hoop.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
She's out here playing basketball.

Speaker 5 (49:13):
She's doing it naked, so it's pretty good. She is
emphasizing that Novik is a betting platform for sports.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
Only, nothing else. It's not like Kalshi.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
Kalshi, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 5 (49:24):
So this has gotten a lot of response, mainly from
women and women in sports, saying this is exactly like
women in sports aren't taken seriously. So over the weekend,
a bunch of female athletes posted their highlight reels and said, Hey,
Sydney Sweeney, this is what it looks like to be

(49:44):
a woman in sports. Now, I don't think Sydney Sweeney
was trying to communicate that women can't do.

Speaker 3 (49:50):
Sports unless they're hot.

Speaker 5 (49:52):
But she did post on her Instagram stories over the
weekend a series of sports stars, including Serena Williams, Megan Rapinoe.
All naked on this cover of Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (50:07):
This is a sports betting site. It's not sports. It's
not about playing sports.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
They're like, you've.

Speaker 5 (50:11):
Set back women's sports a century and all that. They're
really mad about it.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
She even says in the ad, this is just for
sports betting. We don't do politics or weather, poking fun
at Kalshi and things like that.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
I think people just don't like Sidney Sweeney.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
They really do have it out for her.

Speaker 5 (50:27):
A particular viewpoint out there that really doesn't like Sidney Sweeney.

Speaker 2 (50:31):
Yeah, you just showed me the ad 60 seconds ago
before we started the news. What is the problem?

Speaker 4 (50:35):
Yeah, I had read an article about this just this
morning about the backlash. And somebody said, and you guys
can correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not on Instagram
really hardly ever. But it says, I love how Instagram
allows for this ad. But the moment I post something
in a bikini, it gets removed.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
Well, you can't post nipple.

Speaker 4 (50:53):
No, but can you be in a bikini?

Speaker 3 (50:54):
I think that's an exaggeration.

Speaker 4 (50:56):
Yeah, that's what I thought.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, they don't allow nudity. She's covered up.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
She's covered up by sports equipment.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
And, like, we haven't been using sex to sell stuff
for decades and decades.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Forever.

Speaker 5 (51:08):
Who's ever heard of the site Novig until now?

Speaker 4 (51:11):
Right, no one.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
What a great idea.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
All right, those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
I think I forgot to tell you. Go to our
delicious audio site. There are two moms talking. They're moms
from England. And these two moms have gone a little
viral because they admit to sharing something I didn't know
you could shit. Well, that's not true. I did know

(51:50):
because people do buy it off the Internet. So I
guess you can. But I guess I just have never
heard of this, and it's kind of shocking to me. Kelly,
why don't you take a listen to these two moms
talking and what they share and see how you feel
about it.

Speaker 8 (52:02):
He started crying, and she WhatsAppped me and was like, oh,
he's crying.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
Like, what should I do? And I was like, well,
feed him. It didn't even occur to me because she was.

Speaker 9 (52:08):
Breastfeeding already her seven-month-old boy.

Speaker 11 (52:11):
Right, okay.

Speaker 3 (52:13):
And it kind of just went as like a sort
of convenience thing. And then it was like, it was
just a bit of a nothing.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
The thing is, when you're in the breastfeeding zone, everything
slightly changes.

Speaker 3 (52:20):
You only have to hear a baby cry.

Speaker 4 (52:22):
Exactly.

Speaker 7 (52:23):
In the supermarket and your breast explodes.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
Exactly.

Speaker 9 (52:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (52:26):
It's hard to say.

Speaker 11 (52:27):
You get this. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
It felt a natural thing to do. It didn't feel odd.

Speaker 2 (52:33):
Baby's crying. Baby's hungry. Mom number one, who's breastfeeding baby
isn't there, talks to mom number two, who is also
a breastfeeding mother, and says, yeah, feed them. And so
now you've got another baby breastfeeding. I've never heard of

(52:54):
that before.

Speaker 4 (52:55):
So she's breastfeeding a child that's not hers.

Speaker 6 (52:57):
Right.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
Is what we're saying.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (52:58):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
And now they say they breastfeed each other's babies. Like
it's a whatever thing. And I had just never heard
about that. And I was kind of taken aback.

Speaker 5 (53:08):
I'm curious about the whole buying breast milk anyway, because
isn't it your own body's, you know, what your own
body produces for your baby that's supposed to be good
for your baby alone?

Speaker 2 (53:22):
That's what I thought.

Speaker 5 (53:23):
It's like you're producing things in your body that may
not be appropriate for other babies.

Speaker 3 (53:28):
Maybe I'm wrong about that. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (53:29):
But having another person's baby attached to you, to me,
that is such a... That seems to me to be
such a bonding experience with your own child that I
don't know why you would hand that over to another woman,
especially when you're able to breastfeed.

Speaker 3 (53:45):
But you're just like, yeah, go ahead. I'm sick of
doing it today. That's just an awe. It makes me
feel weird. Let's put it that way. Makes me feel weird.

Speaker 2 (53:53):
Lori says, have you ever heard of a wet nurse?
I have not.

Speaker 3 (53:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (53:58):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (53:58):
If a woman can't breastfeed, she can hire a wet nurse.
And I don't know how popular this is to do,
but they.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
Will breastfeed your baby.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
That's what my question is, though.

Speaker 5 (54:09):
I need to know scientifically if another human being produces
in their body what your particular baby needs that you
grew in your body.

Speaker 2 (54:20):
Or is it kind of generic where all breast milk
is good for any baby?

Speaker 3 (54:25):
I would love to know that. That is a question
I have. I'm ignorant on the topic.

Speaker 5 (54:29):
But no, I would not want, if I had a baby,
I would rather formula feed than have it attached to
another person.

Speaker 2 (54:38):
Anthony says bodybuilders buy breast milk all the time online.
It's one of the best natural growth hormones that you
can have. Okay.

Speaker 5 (54:47):
It feels very sharing fluids.

Speaker 2 (54:53):
Yes, it does.

Speaker 4 (54:56):
If there is disease or infection in the mother who's
doing the feeding, it seems like that's the only concern.

Speaker 2 (55:07):
Yeah, lots of text messages coming through about wet nurses.
I did not know that that was a thing. Again,
I had seen the online purchase of breast milk before.

Speaker 4 (55:16):
And all that milk is screened for disease and substances
that might be bad for the baby.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
Okay, so I guess this isn't as strange as I
thought it was. But, yeah, there's just a feeling of having...
Someone else's baby latched onto you. Breastfeeding, that seems a little...
It does.

Speaker 3 (55:37):
To me, I feel like.

Speaker 5 (55:40):
You guys, I'm so ignorant on the topic, but let
me just tell you my feeling about it is that
like if there was some sort of famine happening and
you had a baby and you couldn't because you were
so undernourished that there was a woman who would do
it and your baby could eat.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
I'm like, absolutely. That is dire.

Speaker 5 (55:58):
You are in a circumstance where you have to find
food for your baby. That, to me, is my only
way I could mentally feel okay about that.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
Yeah, I would be a little weirded out if I'm
sitting there and just watching my baby suckle another teat.
It just seems weird.

Speaker 5 (56:15):
Now, I would not breastfeed, so my mom had to
feed formula or whatever.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (56:20):
And I turned out weird, so I don't know.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
Yeah, I mean, if there was a study and we
looked at you, breastfeeding is definitely the way to go. Yes, exactly.
I mean, you're going to want to get that fixed
too sweet if you can. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (56:34):
You got to do what you got to do. Not
so breaking news. The news already broke. We're trying to
put it back together.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
Well, we have a very special not so breaking news
for you this morning as we have ourselves a double WTF.
What the Florida, Florida. Not only that, but both stories
are themed, so buckle up. Three students were hospitalized at
a Fort Lauderdale school after police and fire squad, fire.

Speaker 4 (57:10):
People.

Speaker 2 (57:12):
Firefighters? Firefighters, paramedics, the fire.

Speaker 11 (57:14):
Fire brigade?

Speaker 2 (57:15):
The fire brigade. And... Oh, wow. Fire, fire! Hey, can
you play the bet again, please? Because this has been
an absolute disaster right now. It's wonderful. I love it.
What's the hazmat?

Speaker 13 (57:32):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
Not SWAT. Hazmat.

Speaker 4 (57:34):
Hazardous material.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
Yes, exactly. Because Virginia Schumann Young Elementary received reports of
an odor-causing substance in a room. Someone had released some
fart spray. and 10 students were evaluated for complaints of
respiratory distress. They had to empty out the classroom. Three

(57:57):
students taken to the hospital, and the room was unusable
for about three days. While the hazmat team got in,
cleaned it out, then they had to go back in,
re-scrub everything, re-deodorize everything. Some of that fart spray stuff, man,
in an enclosed area, would cause some problems.

Speaker 5 (58:17):
My nephew did a stink bomb in his classroom last
day of school.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
Did he really?

Speaker 3 (58:21):
Yeah, he just walked away. He was, like, freaking diehard.

Speaker 2 (58:24):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (58:25):
Yeah, the thing went off, and he just, like, waltzed
off into the sunset.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Okay. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (58:30):
That's how you do it.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
Yeah, right. So everyone's going to be fine, but, yeah,
they have been ordered to leave the fart spray at home.
Story number two takes us over to Miami, where a
woman by the name of Yersey Riviera, a 50-year-old woman
there in Miami, has just been arrested for... Burglary on
an occupied dwelling and battery chargers. You see, Miss Rivera

(58:53):
lives in what is known as a split trailer. So basically,
it's like an oversized trailer that has sections. And so
she basically has one half with her husband. And there's
another woman who rents the other half. Well, apparently, Miss Rivera,
on Monday morning, last monday got up went over to
the other side of the trailer started banging on the

(59:16):
door and when miss rivera's roommate answered the door she
threw a bucket of poop at her and accused her
of sleeping with her husband Yeah, you can't go throwing
buckets of poop at people. Apparently, this was also premeditated
because it was her poop which she intentionally pooped in

(59:38):
the bucket to then intentionally throw said poop at her roommate.

Speaker 10 (59:41):
For weeks.

Speaker 2 (59:43):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
She was thinking about this.

Speaker 2 (59:44):
She was planning it.

Speaker 3 (59:45):
But I mean, was the gal sleeping with her husband
or not?

Speaker 2 (59:48):
You know, it doesn't say.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Bitch!

Speaker 5 (59:51):
I need to hear all the details, the facts.

Speaker 2 (59:53):
We need to get these two on Jerry and find
out what's going on. We need Jerry Springer to step
in with his expertise and let us know what is happening. Yeah,
she's going to be spending some time behind bars.

Speaker 3 (01:00:05):
Where are you keeping this bucket in between?

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
That's another valid question. Dang.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
It just seems like a real dirty situation all around.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Unless you went out and personally bought the bucket so
you could personally poop in the bucket so you could
personally throw your poop at your roommate who might or
might not have been sleeping with your husband. Well, ain't that.

Speaker 4 (01:00:22):
Some s * * t?

Speaker 2 (01:00:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
I think you'd at.

Speaker 5 (01:00:26):
Least have to hang it outside, you know, and then
pull it up by the rope when you have to
go hang it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Out the bathroom window. Yeah, you're not leaving it. You're
not leaving it to sit around. Yeah. Yeah, again. But.
If this was a premeditated typeset, you might have gone
to Home Depot, purchased said bucket, brought bucket home, pooped
in said bucket, to then head over to your roommate's door,
to bang on her door, to then throw said poop
bucket at your roommate for maybe or maybe not sleeping

(01:00:53):
with your husband. Anyways, you're going to need to get
a new roommate, too. You can't stay in that living
situation now. You don't stay in the house with a person...
who went to the store to purchase a bucket to
then poop in the bucket to intentionally go over and
bang on your door so when you answer, I can
throw said poop bucket at you for maybe or maybe
not sleeping with my husband.

Speaker 5 (01:01:13):
Yeah, what if you are sleeping with a husband, though?
That makes it real inconvenient if you have to move out.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
That's true. But then you take the chance of someone
driving to Home Depot to pick up... That's your not-so-breaking news, 99.7
The Blitz. Question for all the parents out there. Do
you have a child with big dreams? Do you support
those big dreams? Are you paying for private lessons and

(01:01:40):
private coaches or paying for the travel sport? Because you
know it's a higher level of competition. Hoping maybe they're
going to get a scholarship to college. Working day in
and day out. Maybe become a professional at whatever they're
doing and that's how they're going to earn their living.
Or are you that type of parent that has a

(01:02:01):
child with an interest in something, who says this is
what they want to do with their life, and you're
looking at them going, maybe not. Keep your options open.

Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Yeah, let's have a fallback option.

Speaker 2 (01:02:18):
Right. Or you can be like this parent. Thick found
a clip online of a, well, it's a parent basically
calling their kid out. Take a listen. I am tired
of hearing.

Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
You flip flops up and down. Oh, oh, are you
going to keep going until you break something, Alex? Is
that your plan?

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
Look at your ankles.

Speaker 4 (01:02:49):
It's okay.

Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
This ankle is totally swollen.

Speaker 4 (01:02:52):
I know.

Speaker 10 (01:02:53):
So, you know what?

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
Have a clue. Stop.

Speaker 1 (01:02:57):
You are not going to be the great break dancer
you think you are.

Speaker 3 (01:03:01):
It's not going to work.

Speaker 1 (01:03:03):
You're good, but you're going to destroy your body before you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:06):
Get up to those little Asians levels.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
So get up.

Speaker 11 (01:03:10):
That wasn't very polite.

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
Well, it's true.

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
You're just destroying your body.

Speaker 11 (01:03:16):
Those little Asians?

Speaker 1 (01:03:17):
Well, they seem to be.

Speaker 2 (01:03:19):
Quicker, smaller, and hickler.

Speaker 5 (01:03:22):
Listen, somebody should have said that to Regan. Honestly, she
needed that in her life.

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
They are amazing. Yes, there are many, many amazing breakdancers.
They take it very seriously over in Asia. But, like
you said, are you blindly supporting your child's dreams or...
Or are you going to be up front with them?
But here's the biggest problem I have is obviously you
hear in the beginning of the video that he's attempting
some breakdancing move. But listen in the background to the

(01:03:50):
start of the video that this man, this boy is
trying to breakdance to before his mom cuts him off
because he thumps. Play the beginning of the video again.
That isn't breakdancing music.

Speaker 3 (01:04:09):
It sounds like the intro to some 80s game show.

Speaker 4 (01:04:11):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (01:04:12):
Yes. It sounds like the opening credits of a bad
action movie when they're telling you which production company made
the movie. That is not breakdancing music. Vic, you know
you need some real breakdancing music. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
See this. There we go.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
That's what I think the problem with the video is.
That's the problem with his dancing. He's just not doing
it to the right music. I wish I had that. Yeah,
there it was. That was the dance floor at the wedding. Yeah.
I think if he changed up his music, he might

(01:04:53):
have a chance at becoming a professional. He needs to
change up his music to then show his mom how
good he really is so his mom changes his mind.

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
If you're not.

Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
Smart enough to already know you're dancing to the wrong music,
I feel like it's not the path for you.

Speaker 2 (01:05:11):
Yeah, that's true. You can't even get that first simple
step right.

Speaker 4 (01:05:14):
I don't know how the video looked kind of old.
I mean, obviously it wasn't from the past few years.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:05:20):
You could tell by looking at it. So I don't
know what that music is. But it was funny because
so many comments were people saying. Oh, my God, they
sound just like my mother. Oh, I remember that. Oh,
listen to that voice. Oh, that horrible voice.

Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
Well, Tim says, as a parent of three, I support
as much as I can, as best I can. However,
I also do not lie to my kids. If they
suck at it or it's unsafe, I will let them know.

Speaker 4 (01:05:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:05:43):
I feel like things, you need to let things play
out because the world is going to actually correct things.

Speaker 2 (01:05:50):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:51):
You know, mistaken beliefs.

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:05:53):
At some point.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
Very quickly.

Speaker 3 (01:05:54):
So it's okay to support. But then when it becomes like.

Speaker 8 (01:05:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
When it's past high school... Yes. You got to start like... Right.
Sort of guiding your kid into a better... Did you.

Speaker 11 (01:06:08):
A better route.

Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
Do you remember, Kelly, having a dream as a kid
that your mom supported or didn't support?

Speaker 5 (01:06:13):
I wanted to be a dancer so badly. And let
me tell you something. You know, I could not.
I auditioned my little heart out. Do you think I ever,
ever got hired for anything?

Speaker 3 (01:06:29):
No, because I wasn't good enough. And that is the
world teaching me a lesson. Did I listen?

Speaker 10 (01:06:34):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:06:35):
Did your mom or dad try and tell you yes
or no either way when it came to dancing?

Speaker 12 (01:06:39):
No.

Speaker 5 (01:06:39):
My dad said, Kelly, because I told him I was
going to drop out of college.

Speaker 4 (01:06:44):
Oh, my God.

Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
Yeah, no.

Speaker 5 (01:06:45):
And I did indeed drop out after my first year
at Ohio State for a solid year. And I'm like,
he's like, Kelly, I support you. If you want to
go this route, then go ahead and try. But he knew,
number one, I did not have the skills to get
myself anywhere. I didn't have the talent to get myself anywhere.

(01:07:05):
And it was going to work itself out. I was
back at Ohio State after a year off, and I
finished out my degree.

Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
I forgot where I heard it, but someone had mentioned
this kind of same thing, telling their parents they wanted
to pursue, and I'm pretty sure it was either an
actor or a stand-up comedian I heard this from, and
they wanted to pursue stand-up comedy. And their parents said, okay,
because they were supporting them through college, and they said, okay,
you have one year left. We will help you. We

(01:07:31):
will continue to assist and support you. You have one
year to give it a shot and see what you
can do. And if not, you're going back to college.
But it turned out that they were pretty good at
what they did. That's a good deal. Yeah. But he
gave them the year.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
I don't hate that.

Speaker 5 (01:07:44):
I think that's a nice thing to do, and you'll
figure it out in that year, whether you've got what
it takes or not.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
Right. Yep. Vic, did you have a childhood dream to
be a pro at something or do something that your
parents did or did not support?

Speaker 6 (01:07:56):
Um.

Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
No, not really.

Speaker 4 (01:07:58):
I mean, it was just, you know, the whole breakdancing
thing was just fun.

Speaker 9 (01:08:01):
Right.

Speaker 2 (01:08:01):
No, yeah. You weren't trying to be a pro there.

Speaker 5 (01:08:03):
You weren't ever thinking like, oh, Star Search is going
to come and discover us? We always thought that. Back
in the day, we always thought Star Search was just
ready to discover us.

Speaker 4 (01:08:15):
I would have had a dream if I'd known how
big bass fishing would have actually become and the money
that people make.

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
Okay. What about when you, for that period of time,
when you were ranked number one at Madden, were you
ever considering like pro e-sport? Well, e-sports really wasn't a full-blown.

Speaker 4 (01:08:29):
Thing back then. See, I was, man, I was ahead
of my time there.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:08:33):
And I was.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
But you were also an adult at the time. You
weren't a teenager. Right, I was a kid. Right.

Speaker 4 (01:08:37):
You know, and I was too late on the bass fishing,
you know, because it's a young man's game now. I mean,
the high schoolers, the high schoolers are competing for scholarships
in college and for sponsors, and they're trying to be
on the pro circuit by their mid-20s.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
I didn't have any real, dream that I stuck with.
I'm going to do this when I grow up. I
kind of naturally transitioned along the way.

Speaker 4 (01:09:05):
I thought you were going to tell me a restaurant.

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
Yeah, but it wasn't like a childhood dream.

Speaker 4 (01:09:11):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
Yeah, that came a little bit later.

Speaker 4 (01:09:14):
This one, I'm picturing like... Alex, you're 38 years old.
It's not going to happen.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
Right. Because I started stand-up when I was 19 and
in college. But again, that wasn't like I'm going to
be a professional stand-up comedian for the rest of my life.
But I really enjoyed doing it. And then, yeah, once
I was a DJ and got into radio, I was
told by a radio guy, yeah, why don't you give
it a try? And I was like, okay, and then
that's when I fell in love with it. But again,

(01:09:40):
that wasn't the childhood dream, being a radio DJ.

Speaker 5 (01:09:43):
You think about people who insist that their band is
going to hit. And they refuse to have a paying
job because they have to focus on their music.

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
Music, yes.

Speaker 3 (01:09:52):
You know, you've got to at some point say, okay,
you can do the music. Don't give it up. But
you've got to make some money.

Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
You've got to support somehow.

Speaker 4 (01:09:59):
Oh, my gosh. Can you imagine, like, the music business
or acting? You're trying to make it big. That grind
has to.

Speaker 2 (01:10:06):
Be on you. Oh, it's got to be unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (01:10:07):
That takes years.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
Yes. Yeah. Unless, you know, and... If you ever get there.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
If you get there.

Speaker 2 (01:10:13):
Because I remember someone talking about the bit part they
played in this show, and he goes, 99% of the
actors are these day actors, these bit actors. We know
the A-listers, but in terms of actor, that is the
smallest group possible. There are people out here doing commercials
or little side quests and three or four episode arcs
on TV shows. That's it.

Speaker 4 (01:10:37):
All of us, we watch all these TV shows, all
these movies. Look how many people are in them. We
have no idea.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
No idea, right. Absolutely.

Speaker 11 (01:10:43):
800-821-9970.

Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
Did you ever dream as a child? Did your parents
support or did they kind of put you in place?
They're like, okay, enjoy, but this isn't going to be
how you make your money. It's 99.7 The Blitz.

Speaker 11 (01:10:56):
And now, the three things you need to know before
you go.

Speaker 5 (01:11:00):
A 16-year-old girl who had been reported missing in December
of 2025 from a transitional home in Columbus... was found
living with a former teacher where she attended high school.
48-year-old Job Binkley of Springfield has been charged with interference
with custody.

Speaker 3 (01:11:16):
He's pleaded not guilty.

Speaker 5 (01:11:18):
He's out on bond. Binkley is a former teacher in
the Springfield City School District. They had come to his
house initially and said, hey, we're looking for this girl.
And he's like, yeah, I don't know. But she was
living with him. So he knew she was reported missing.

Speaker 2 (01:11:33):
So is this a mess?

Speaker 3 (01:11:34):
I don't know what's going on here. It doesn't sound good, though.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
I mean, on one end, it could be he knew
kind of the system was broken and it wouldn't have
worked out.

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
Yeah, she was obviously in a situation where she wasn't
with family.

Speaker 2 (01:11:48):
And if he said something, she'd be back in the system.
It would take years to straighten out, yada, yada, yada.
So he just did it out of the kindness of
his heart.

Speaker 5 (01:11:56):
Is it possible that he comes out of this.

Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
Smelling like a rose.

Speaker 2 (01:11:59):
Yeah. Or there's the weird situation.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
She is 16. You've got to involve the appropriate people, but... Yeah.
I don't know. It's weird.

Speaker 5 (01:12:09):
A 13-year-old boy is recovering from severe wounds and nerve
damage after a rabid beaver attacked him during a family
trip to Cunningham Falls State Park in Maryland.

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
Dominic Cebula was swimming.

Speaker 5 (01:12:21):
And looking at fish underwater in July when something hit
his chest and latched onto him. He was able to
fight and pull the beaver off his chest, but it
lunged at him again and bit his hand.

Speaker 3 (01:12:31):
He was eventually airlifted to.

Speaker 5 (01:12:34):
The hospital for wound treatment and rabies shots. He's been
through three surgeries so far to treat wounds to his chest.
He had to have repair work done to his hand,
and he had to have repair work done because of
severe nerve damage.

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
I mean, that's a beaver.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
Gosh, man. That's what I said.

Speaker 5 (01:12:55):
Dominic was the first of three rabid beaver attacks in Maryland.
We'd heard about these. A fisherman was attacked a week
after Dominic. And then a few days after the fisherman
was attacked, a 10-year-old who was in a canoe was.

Speaker 3 (01:13:09):
Attacked by a rabid beaver.

Speaker 5 (01:13:10):
So you got to watch out in Maryland, I guess.

Speaker 7 (01:13:14):
Yikes.

Speaker 2 (01:13:15):
I'm just glad I'm not the only one who has
now suffered nerve damage in my hand from an angry beaver. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:13:21):
You're not alone. Start a support group.

Speaker 2 (01:13:23):
My people are out there. Very happy about that.

Speaker 5 (01:13:27):
Primetime Emmy Award show is tonight at 8. The Pit
leads the overall pack with 25 nominations, followed closely by
the final season of Hacks with 24. Widows Bay up
for 19. The host, Mariska Hargitay. And she's already won
two Emmys this season for her documentary on her mom,
actress Jane Mansfield, called My Mom Jane. The piece won

(01:13:48):
Outstanding Documentary. and Hargitay won for directing. I don't know.
I'm usually not into award shows, but I do watch television,
so that's the only one that kind of interests me.

Speaker 3 (01:13:58):
I don't care about the Oscars because I don't watch movies.

Speaker 5 (01:14:01):
I don't care about the Tonys because I never see
a Broadway show.

Speaker 2 (01:14:03):
Right.

Speaker 12 (01:14:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:14:04):
The Emmys are, yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:14:06):
Funny thing is, though, these award shows have been struggling
over the past several years to get viewers. So, G,
let's put it on the opening Monday night football.

Speaker 5 (01:14:16):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:14:17):
Not too bright.

Speaker 2 (01:14:18):
But if you want to watch the Emmys, you probably
don't care about football and vice versa. Maybe. I can't
remember the last time I watched an awards show. Zero
desire whatsoever. Because most of the time, it's not shows I...
Especially with the Academy Awards. It kind of feels rigged, too.
And they've changed it a little bit now for the

(01:14:39):
Academy Awards, where you can now be popular and win
Academy Awards. Because before, it was.

Speaker 11 (01:14:44):
Well, we have to do the art.

Speaker 2 (01:14:45):
Fondue the Chocolate wins best movie.

Speaker 4 (01:14:48):
Like, what?

Speaker 3 (01:14:49):
That's my ass.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
What does Fondue the Chocolate know?

Speaker 4 (01:14:52):
I saw the MTV Awards has completely done away with
any rock music categories.

Speaker 2 (01:14:59):
Again, I'm not one. I have no desire to watch
award shows.

Speaker 3 (01:15:02):
Well, I might see a little bit because I really
want Widows Bay to win a lot of awards. I
loved that show so much. It was a good show.

Speaker 2 (01:15:08):
Yeah. All right.

Speaker 3 (01:15:09):
Those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (01:15:12):
All right, everybody. Let's celebrate. We can all rejoice because
diarrhea lettuce is over with. Oh, is it? Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:15:21):
It's all gone?

Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
The CDC has declared the end of cyclotospora syphilitifis and
says the outbreak is done. Lettuce is now safe. You
can go back to your salads. You can go back
to your turkey sandwiches. You can go back to your
other lettuce cups.

Speaker 11 (01:15:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:15:43):
Lettuce wraps.

Speaker 2 (01:15:43):
Lettuce wraps. Yeah, what else do you have lettuce?

Speaker 4 (01:15:47):
You put it on your burger.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
You put it back on your burger. Yeah, yeah. So
you go back to Taco Bell now. Yeah. Now you'll
get diarrhea the natural way at Taco Bell, not from
the lettuce they're giving you. So, yeah, we can all
rejoice and just put our hands up because Cyclist Bordeaux
is done and over with. Now we just have to

(01:16:11):
worry about the ringworm and parasites in the tuna that
is hitting the shelves. And I think there's still a
green bean recall.

Speaker 4 (01:16:20):
Green bean?

Speaker 2 (01:16:21):
I think so. There was another one. There was a piece.
There was another one that got recalled. Yeah, so lettuce
is back. Just got to work our way through the
other foods that are.

Speaker 4 (01:16:30):
All while we deal with El Nino.

Speaker 2 (01:16:32):
Yes, now we've got El Nino to deal with. There
is that to deal with.

Speaker 4 (01:16:34):
The winter is so unpredictable. It could be insane.

Speaker 2 (01:16:38):
I guarantee it. We're going to have these moments of
big downfalls, snowfalls, and then it's going to be like
55 degrees. I think it's going to be very up
and down for sure. So head on back, get your
lettuce at your favorite local store, and enjoy. Now, let's
see if we can learn you something. Sit up and
pay attention.

Speaker 4 (01:16:56):
Yeah, let's learn.

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
You some stuff on a Monday morning. Replace some of
those brain cells you killed over the weekend. Like, did
you know? We were actually just talking about this over
the weekend and about celebrity worship and digging deep into...
A celebrity's life just because you're a fan. Well, a
study found that higher levels of celebrity worship were associated
with lower cognitive performance.

Speaker 4 (01:17:17):
I believe that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Don't go celebrating and worshiping those celebrities. Did you know
more people in Anchorage, Alaska take a plane to work
than a bus? Wow. Can you imagine getting up every
morning and having to jump on a plane? I had
an ex that lived in Juneau for a while and
she took a boat to work every morning. but like
water based around there and not only that but half

(01:17:41):
the year they had to wear those giant orange insulated
suits those like fisherman suits because it was so cold
there that was your daily wear that was your outer
wear wow.

Speaker 4 (01:17:53):
I remember a guy I can't maybe you remember him
he was in radio I think he was in Dallas
he would do he was on in the morning in
Dallas and then he would get on a plane and
go to Chicago and be on the radio in Chicago
in the afternoon and he'd do that every day.

Speaker 2 (01:18:07):
Oh, wow. I did not know that.

Speaker 11 (01:18:08):
That's nuts.

Speaker 2 (01:18:08):
Yeah, that's crazy. Did you know that William Shatner and
Ricardo Montalban are never on screen together in The Wrath
of Khan? They were never on set together.

Speaker 4 (01:18:20):
Oh, okay. One of those deals.

Speaker 2 (01:18:21):
Their scenes were filmed four months apart, but everything was editing,
and they were never on screen together. That's crazy. Did
you know the dollar sign came from the letter P
written over the letter S? Y-P-S... Because it was originally
the sign for the peso in Spain. Oh, okay. And
then eventually the loop of the P was dropped, so

(01:18:42):
it was just an S with a line through it.
And that became.

Speaker 4 (01:18:44):
The dollar sign.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
And finally, did you know about half of the U.S.
population lives within a 500-mile radius of Columbus?

Speaker 4 (01:18:56):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (01:18:57):
I did know that. Someone told me that when I
was moving here. It might have been Westside Jeff, who
I lived with when I first moved here, and he's
the first person to drive me around town. And I
learned that half the U.S. population lives within 500 miles.

Speaker 4 (01:19:11):
The heart of it all, baby.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
That's one of the reasons I loved it here, because
I knew we could go to Pittsburgh, Detroit, Cleveland, Indy, Nashville, Chicago.
They're all within less than a half a day's drive, basically,
which is amazing. Did you also know, I did not
know this, this is mind-blowing to me. Columbus also contains
80% of U.S. corporate headquarters. I mean, I knew we

(01:19:35):
had White Castle. We had Wendy's. I knew we had
a bunch. But 80% of U.S. corporate headquarters are located
here in Columbus. So good on Columbus. Wow. I like
that fact.

Speaker 4 (01:19:46):
