first week of the trav Show and a little worse
for wear. But we are here. Got a busy, a
busy show coming up for you this morning, plenty of
news or nonsense. You're not gonna believe some of the
stuff we talk about. I'm just gonna throw some of

Chevrolet Gracer report, your loser news, all of the fun
here on a Friday. What do you say? We get
things rolling. Here is Bell and James living it up
(01:13):
Friday night. You're tuned in to the Draft Show. Today
is August, the eighth year of our Lord, twenty twenty five,
(01:34):
and it is indeed a day or worth celebrating. It
is global sleep under the Stars night. So there you go,
throw the wife and the kids out in the backyard
and say, hey, you're celebrating it is International cat Day.
Well I'm celebrating now, that's for sure. But I digress.
(01:54):
National CBD Day bye, because of the cats. I may
be celebrating that one too. National Dollar Day. You got
a dollar? I got a dollar? I got a dollar.
Let's see what else we have? National Frozen custard Day,
National Waterburger Day. No water burger where I am, so
I will not be celebrating that National Scottish well, International
(02:17):
Scottish wildcat Day. It is the day to create National
Zucchini Day that seems to be the only thing growing
in some gardens around the area. And with that in mind,
it's also sneaked some zucchini onto your neighbor's porch Day.
Have you ever? Have you ever gotten home in a
(02:38):
bag of zucchini on your porch? I have? Or in
your car after church? I have? And most importantly, it's
National Spam Musubi Day. Now, if you're wondering what that is,
it looks like just spam sushi. It's got the old
sushi roll, the rice and fried spam right there. It's
(02:58):
been a while since I've had spam. Let me tell
you something, fried spam and tomato sandwich with mayo. I
don't think you can beat it and throw cheese on there. Yeah,
uh uh, I know it's not healthy, but some things
are worth dying for. That is what's happening today, and
it is a day worth celebrating. Well, they say laughter
(03:22):
is the best medicine, and I'm going to give you
a little dose with a giggle. While putting his daughter
to bed one night, Bill listens to his daughter save
prayers and she says, God bless mommy, Daddy and Grandma
rest in peace. Grandpa. Bill rushes back into her room
and asks, why did you say that last part. His
daughter replies, because I needed to. The next day, Grandpa
(03:44):
dies of a heart attack. Bill is worried. That night,
he tucks his daughter into bed again and once again
he hears her saying her prayers. She says, God bless
mommy and Daddy Rest in peace Grandma. Bill is now worried,
thinking to himself, can my daughter really see into the future.
The next day, Grandma dies, and now Bill is convinced
his daughter can predict the future. For the rest of
(04:06):
the week, nothing happens. But on Sunday night, as Bill
leaves his daughter's room, he weeps outside and listens for
any more prayers. She says, God, bless you, mommy, Rest
in peace, Daddy. Now. Bill is freaked out. The next
day at work, He's panicked. He's checking the clock and
to be sure, he stays at the office until after midnight.
On his way home, he's thinking, how could this happen?
(04:27):
I'm supposed to be dead. He goes home and walks
into the house and finds his wife sitting on the
sofa with a scared look on her face. She asks him,
where have you been? What took you so long? Bill replies, listen, honey,
today I haven't had the best day, and he is
just about to tell her what happened when she starts
crying and burst out, I saw the mailman die yesterday.
Think about it. We begin every morning sports report with
(04:55):
a little high school softball. Town's County traveled to Raven
County yesterday their very first game of the season for
the Lady Indians, that is, and unfortunately for the blue crew,
they come up one run short, the Wildcats get to
win seven to six in that one. Next up for
the Lady Indians is a home game against Barrel Arts
(05:17):
and Science Academy on Monday. Sticking with high school softball,
Union County hosted Barrel Arts and Science Academy yesterday and
the Lady Panthers come through in a big way fifteen
to nothing in that one as they skunk their opponents,
who improved to two to one on the season. Now,
(05:38):
Union County will be in action on Saturday at Grayson
twelve o'clock noon start time for that one. As hard
as it is to believe, we got some Friday night
lights in the area Towns County against Rosman yep Rosmand
back in the Smoky Mountain Conference this year, they will
(05:58):
travel across the border to take on the Indians seven
point thirty kickoff there at Towns County High School. And finally,
Minor League baseball for the first time this season, the
Gwinnette Strippers found a way to win when trailing after
eight innings, carved up Bunnles RBI double tided at three
to three in the top of the Knots and a
miscatch error on Columbus catcher Cody Huff scored Jared Kallnick
(06:22):
in the top of the tent to give the Strippers
a four to three win over the Clippers. On Thursday night,

(08:22):
with me today for trav Talk. Miss Chasity Ledford is
here to tell us all about the upcoming Cherokee County
Fair tis fair season here in our area. And Chasity,
you got a lot going on over there in Andrews, Yes,
we do so tell us that that's a new location.
(08:43):
First of all, right, yes, so it is.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
It is a new location we are gonna be It
is gonna be on Wilson Street, at the corner of
Maine and Wilson Street. It's gonna be in the Family
Dollar parking lot. It's a huge parking lot, all pavement, no.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Grass, no mud.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Yeah, all the rides are gonna be set up there,
and then Wilson Street in front of the parking lot
will be closed and in the section in front of
the parking lot we will have food trucks there.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Okay. Now, I don't know if maybe y'all are just
doing an outstanding job of promoting it this year, but
to me, it seems like this is going to be
like bigger and better than ever. Is that just me?
Or is that the goal here?
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Well, that's definitely the goal. We've got a new rides
company this year, so again everything is changing, so they
will be bringing you new, different, more rides than we've
had in the past years. So that is super exciting.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
There, what's your favorite ride?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Oh goodness, I don't know who doesn't love.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
A fairis will there you go? I'm pretty mellow that
or the care So you know, that's about the extent
of my wild ride.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yeah, I understand.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
So so rides and food trucks. What else can folks
find at the fair?
Speaker 4 (10:10):
So well, that's we've kind of condensed it this year
to make it easier. So we will have live music
on Saturdays though, so just one Saturday. So Saturdays, starting
at eleven, we will have three bands during the day
(10:31):
so they're all local to our area. We will have
Rhymers Ferry, we will have the Steve Jordan Band, and
the Wesley Phillips Band will also be there, so they're
all local. They're all very good. And then at around
eleven ish, when the fair closes on Saturday night, we
(10:52):
will do our annual fireworks show.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
I was going to ask I heard Cherokee County's largest
firework show. Am I am, I am? I lying there,
you are not.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
We go all out for our fare and we just
started doing the fireworks from year one and it was
a hit. Everyone loved it. We up the budget every
year for our fireworks, so it's gonna be great. It's
always at dark, it's always on the last night. We
go out with a bang, literally, so it'll be great.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Go ahead, and give our listeners the dates, and I
know that some days it's tickets, some days it's bracelets,
and tell them that fantastic fair fee to enter if
you would.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Okay, well it is zero dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I love it, I love it.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Yeah, it's absolutely free to enter. So we hope that
since you don't have to pay that initial admission, that
you will bring your kids out and let them ride
every ride a million times and spend your money at
the food trucks and enjoy all all the nice local
things that Cherokee County has to offer. So our fare
(12:06):
will be starting Wednesday, September seventeenth through Saturday, September twentieth.
So I know it's kind of it seems very confusing,
but on Wednesday and Thursday, we will only have the
fair open in the evenings from six to ten pm
(12:27):
because I know that the kids are still in school,
so just bring them on after school that's out after
practice and let them ride the rides. And then Friday
we will be open. We're going to open earlier, but
the rides will be open from five to ten, and
then Saturday, the whole shebang, the food trucks and the
(12:48):
rides will be open from noon to eleven pm.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So you could spend the whole afternoon evening and not
at the fair.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Yes you can. And then again on Wednesday and Thursday
there will be no risk band. You will have to
purchase tickets only and there's different options for that. But
Friday and Saturday we will have the risk band options
and those are always the best bills. You just ride
and ride and ride all day.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Ride until you can no longer move. Yes, all right,
talking with Chassidy Ledford here about the Cherokee County Fair.
If people would like more information, maybe I know how
it is always looking for volunteers. Where can they reach
out to get more information? They can?
Speaker 4 (13:36):
We have a Facebook page, the Cherokee County Fair Facebook Page.
We also have a website. It's the Cherokee County Fair, Inc.
Dot org I believe it's org dot com. And then
they can also they can reach out to me personally
or Brandy Smith where the president and vice president, and
(13:57):
we're always available to take any calls questions or you know,
if you want to sign up to be a food vendor,
it is still not too mate, so there's openings for
those as well.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
There you go and I'm sure as we get closer
we will be seeing more and more about the fair
on social media and whatnot. Chassity, thanks so much for
giving us a little bit of your time this morning.
Speaker 4 (14:19):
All right, thank you, You are welcome.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
All right, and that is this morning's trav talk.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Win or Wick up in the morning.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
It is indeed, study all time. Everybody, Come on in
plenty of room in this classroom for me to educate
you on something that probably doesn't even matter. Researchers found
that ants are so tidy that they create restroom areas
in their nests. Did you know this? I mean it
makes sense, right if we all got to live here.
(14:51):
If you're going to do that, go over there now.
Ants and honeybees are the two most fascinating creatures to
me the way that they're set up. Everybody has a job,
and everybody is expected to do that job. Probably something
you didn't think about. But now you are smarter than
you were yesterday because you now know ants have bathrooms.
(15:16):
Class dismissed. Well, that's it for our number one. I
want to thank Chassity Leadford again for being here in
our number one to help us start our Friday. Don't
you go anywhere. Coming up in hour number two, we'll
start our look at news or nonsense and I will
tell you if it is news or if it is nonsense.
(15:39):
Plus more fun on the way. Don't you go anywhere?
Stick around. I'll be back in five minutes right here
on the Draft Show.

on a Friday. Travelers, you'body trave here on the Trash Show.
Thanks so much for tuning in to the Mountain buzz.
(16:39):
Coming up in this hour, we got your loser news,
your Facebook find of the day. What else do we have?
Maybe a little celebrity news. Who knows what we will
get into. We're definitely going to start taking a look
at some news or nonsense, and unfortunately we live in
a time where one is the same as the other.
(17:02):
But we'll break it down as we move forward. Right

(17:23):
spotlight lens on inexcess with I need you Tonight news
or nonsense time. So stop me if you've heard this
one before. A virus began circulating in China, sickening thousands
and thousands of people, leading authorities to spray down the
streets in an effort to control the infectious area. Y'all, y'all,
(17:46):
did you hear that? Does that sound familiar? Well, no,
it's not a history lesson, it's what's happening now. What
Chinese health officials are moving through neighborhood spring chemicals to
kill mosquitoes and times walking straight into apartments. They insist
this is the most effective method to stop the chickung
(18:08):
young chie c h i k u n g u
n y a chi kyung ungya virus from spreading across
the region chikung jung ya. I guess uh, now, don't
worry though, this is not a repeat of COVID in
twenty twenty. I think I'm pretty sure. Maybe. Here's what
(18:33):
Sky News said. Thousands of people have fallen ill in
China with symptoms of a mosquito born virus. More than
seven thousand cases have been reported to the authorities of
the chi kung gunya virus, which can cause fever and
joint pain. Uh, it's okay. Now here's the correct pronunciation,
(18:54):
chicken gunya. That sounds like something you would order. I'll
have fried rice and chick please. Mosquito born virus characterized
by high fever, severe joint pain, and sometimes fatigue, rash,
gastro intestinal problems and other symptoms. Hey, how is that
chicking gouna you had? Oh? Man, it gave me fatigue, rash,
(19:15):
gastro intestinal problems and other symptoms. Huh, I think I'll
try that now. It's not the most severe virus in
the world, especially with the mortality rate of slightly less
than one in one thousand, but in rare cases it
can be serious. It can spread rapidly within mosquitoes hit
a mosquito heavy region. So it's probably why we're seeing
(19:38):
workers spring seemingly every square inch of fo Shawn, China
with mosquito fog. And I'm sure that mosquito fog poisoning
that they're spreading. I'm sure it's fine as well. So
is this news or nonsense? Unforgently, I do believe this
is news. You know, we often think that celebrities can
(20:01):
go anywhere and do anything they want. Here is an
example of how that's not always the case. Jennifer Lopez's
tour stop in Turkey included a surprising moment for the
pop star. Lopez stopped by a Chanel store in Istamboulula
on Monday, but a security guard prevented her from doing
so because it was at full capacity. Reports Turkey Today,
(20:25):
they can't get enough. Artist was reportedly cordial about it,
saying okay, no problem before walking away. The store's staff
reportedly invited Lopez back, but she went to other high
end fashion stores instead. She stopped by Selene and Bayman stores.
Per Turkey Today. I don't know what sold here, but
I can't afford it. I know that, But kudos to
(20:46):
this security guard. Do you think that he knew who
she was and he still stopped her. He didn't know who.
I'm sure she had her entourage around her, and he
just said, look, store's full, you're gonna have to wait. Also,
how how big is the store? And if it's a
big one, how many rich people are in? Is stumble?
Apparently quite a few, But there you go. Celebrities don't
(21:10):
always get what they want. Sometimes they don't even get
what they need. Now, I'm no sus sayer, but I
know you longtime listeners here you have questions. One question
in particular, trav It's Friday. Does that mean? Let me
put that question to rest right now? Yes, it is Friday,
(21:32):
and not a Friday goes by that we don't kick
off your weekend here on the Trash Show with the
Scotsman Song.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Loser, you're a loser. Are you feeling sorry for yourself?
Well you should be because you are dirt. It is
now time for our loser news of the day. Today
we had to Lake County, Florida. Now any of us
that are married may be able to relate to this one.
Our seven year old loser became upset when with his
(22:34):
wife when he discovered that, once again the coffee maker
had no water in it. Spat quickly escalated, and our
loser picked up the first weapon he could find, a
package of oreos. Yep, he threw a pack of oreos
at her, allegedly knocking her down. How hard did he
wizz those things? Man Cookies took her out. Police could
(22:54):
find no obvious injuries, but our loser was arrested and
charged with domestics. Anyway, Hey, nothing says a loser like
slinging cream cookie at your wife. My goodness news or
nonsense time? You know when you're hot and needs something
(23:15):
refreshing and cold to drink, so you guzzled the nearest
ketchup bottle. Y'all know how many times you've done that?
Oh wait, you've you've never done that. Well, here's the
headline in a move no one asked for. Hines and
Smoothie King team up. Easy for me to say, to
make ketch up smoothies, y'all? What in the world that's right.
(23:37):
For a limited time, Smoothie King will be offering Ketchup
smoothies on their menu. No way, man, No, I don't
want this. For no reason would I drink a Ketchup smoothie?
And I mean, you know, unless a lot of money,
A lot of money is involved. In the press release,
(23:58):
Hines explains the origin of the just fiasco of a drink.
They say, while everyone knows the age old question, is
a tomato a fruit or a vegetable? Recently thousands have
started asking if tomatoes are a fruit? Is ketchup a smoothie? Thousands? Really? Thousands?
Who are these people? I want names? I want to
(24:19):
see a petition that they signed. So what's in the
Ketchup smoothie? The hindes tomato Ketchup smoothie blend, sweet a
chos sorbet, crisp apple juice, juicy strawberries and tart raspberries
with the unmistakable taste of hind simply ketchup, which is
all natural and made with red ripe tomatoes full of
(24:40):
vitamins and antioxidants. I'm not arguing that tomatoes are good
for you. Look, yeah, they are, but not in this form.
Speaker 8 (24:51):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Ugh. If you're into torture in your taste budge, you
can find the odd concoction at Smoothie King. I don't
know where Smoothie King is, but if you would like
to taste it for I think I have a homemade
recipe here. Go out, get yourself a V eight, the
old school V eight, not the V eight splash the
old school V eight. Just tomato juice and freeze it up.
(25:17):
Then bust it up, let it fall a little, and
start drinking. No thank you. I remember when I was
a kid, I saw a commercial for V eight and
how refreshed the people were. And so the next time
we stopped at a little gas station, Dad's like, what
do you want to drink? I said, V eight and
he's like, you don't want that. I said, yes, I do.
We argue and he's like fine. I took one drink
(25:39):
and realized Dad was right. I didn't want that. Is
this news or nonsense? Definitely nonsense. It's time for today's Facebook. Fine,
And I am not lying when I say you could
own a piece of history. Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourself.
I'm gonna give you a little hint here. That's right.
(26:07):
It is a vintage Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile whistle. These
whistles are promotional item, shaped like the iconic Oscar Meyer
Wiener Mobile. They've been given out for decades to promote
Oscar Meyer products. And this comes to us from Scott
Nielsen in Spencer, Tennessee, and Scott wants you to have
(26:29):
a piece of history. It is listed as used but good.
The design of the whistle has changed over the years,
with new versions introduced to commemorate updates to the Wiener
mobile itself. Now I don't see anywhere where it says
what year this is from, but you can tell it's
older just the design, the shape it's in. For only
(26:50):

let's cut that and never speak of it again. Today's
spotlight falls on lip bone reading. And this is called
Dogs of Santiago's wild It is indeed a wild world
(29:54):
when you have things like this happening. A former employee
of the US embassy and sent to Domingo, a Dominican Republic,
was extraduided from the Dominican Republic to the United States.
Now I'm just gonna call him Jay Row. Okay, that's
all you need to know. Jay Row, aged thirty five,
has been indicted on charges of conspiracy to import cocaine
into the United States. The Department of Justice announced Wednesday.
(30:19):
The indictment alleges that Jay Row ran an international conspiracy
to smuggle cocaine into the United States while working as
a security officer at the embassy in the Dominican Republic
from around April of twenty twenty three to December of
twenty twenty three. Jay Row His alleged scheme involved hiring
people to transport the drugs and hide cocaine inside packages
(30:43):
that looked like duty free items bought at the Santo
Domingo Airport smart The packages look like Marlborough cartons, Chucko
pie boxes, and Johnny Walker whiskey boxes, according to photos
for the DOJ. These carriers would then bring the disguised
(31:04):
cocaine into airports in the New York Area's already said
they have seen several shipments of cocaine link to Jay
Row No j Row No. I mean if I am
the TSA worker or anybody involved in security, I'm gonna
have questions why you have to take Marlborough where you're going.
(31:25):
They don't sell it, huh. And I thought like bringing
note just cerets in from other countries was illegal. Coach
you can buy so.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
Cheap, Hey, y'all, it's a least for russuwas Chevlet.
Speaker 1 (31:38):

Just about everybody considers Shane Van Gibsbergen the man to
beat at Watkins Glenn this weekend. Kyle Busch would love
to find a way to match him, but doesn't think
he can.
Speaker 11 (32:57):
He's just really really good. He has the heel toe
meth that I know, so for me to try to
figure that out, it would be until my retirement before
I'm even ten percent as good as he is at it,
so that's out the window. I'm a left foot breaker,
so that switching over to your right foot to break
and then turning your ankle sideways and gassing while pushing
the clutch in, that's all very, very convoluted and way
above my pay grade.
Speaker 12 (33:18):
Rowdy has won twice at the Glen where last season,
SVG finished fifth in the Infinity Series race and was
the runner up Sunday to Chris bush er.
Speaker 10 (33:28):

struggled a bit there and I couldn't get it right.
So yeah, I'm in two good cause again got the
potential to have some great results.
Speaker 12 (33:38):
Meanwhile, with only two top tens in the last seven outings,
Christopher Bell is in a bit of a slump, but
is still bullish on his title aspirations.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
I will say one thing that I love about this
twenty group is they show up and perform the most
when it matters the most. And performance has been off,
but I don't think that that means anything for the
playoffs and what's to come.

Hendrick Motorsports is trying to navigate what could be troubled
waters with three teammates fighting for the Cup Series regular
season championship. William Byron with just three races left, just
trying to hold off Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson, who
feels what they're doing is pretty impressive.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Well, yeah, it's been great to see, you know, Hendrick Motorsports.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
You know, a top the standings right now, or at
least the three of us are, And yeah, that's something
to be proud of.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
But there's still a lot of race and left.
Speaker 12 (34:56):
Yeah, absolutely anything could happen as Garage pass not narrow
minded Garrol minded.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Sign for poetic stupid quotes where I take a quote
from a president a celebrity, somebody that's pretty stupid. Put
it into Kings English and let you hear that it's
not so much what you say, but how you say
it that really matters. Here is today's submission. Verily, a
(35:28):
multitude of worthy physicians just forsake their calling. Many practitioners
of obstetrics and gynecology are unable to exercise their devotion
to the care of women throughout this land. Now what's that, Well,
(35:48):
it's a quote from our old buddy, George W. Bush,
where he said, too many good docs are getting out
of the business. Too many obgyns aren't able to practice
their love with women all across the country. Probably could
have found a better way to say that, but if
he would have, he would not have landed on poetic
(36:09):
stupid quotes. For this Friday.
Speaker 8 (36:21):
Crazy, it is time for the crazy news story of
the day survey.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
According to a survey, seventy seven percent of zoomers have
brought parents to a job interview. Forty five percent have
parents called bosses on a regular basis. What what? I'm
once again restating my concern for gen z y'all. This
story from Campus Reform referencing a resume a template study
(36:59):
show that gen Z is woefully unprepared for the real world.
Here are some highlights from this study. Thirty one percent
of gen Z's had a parent rite their resume, seventy
seven percent brought a parent to an interview no thanks,
fifty thirty percent had a parent speak with a hiring
(37:20):
manager on their behalf, forty five percent regularly have a
parent talked to their current manager, seventy three percent have
their parents help complete work assignments, and fifty seven percent
have brought a parent to their current workplace. Now that's
one thing, like, hey, come see where I work. But
all this talking with the boss and when doing the
(37:42):
stuff and filling this out, this is what happens when
you have helicopter parenting and those kids grow up to
be so called adults. Mom and dad could say no,
you had to call your own boss and fill out
your own resume, but most of them don't. Here's more
from Campus Reform. In an interview with Campus Reform, career
(38:03):
consultant Julia Toothacher said she was shocked to hear the
statistics about gen Z bringing parents to interviews or having
a parent talk to a boss or hiring manager. They're
just not as prepared for the world. Toothacher said, they
are not Listen. Now, people could question our parents. And
when I say our parents, I mean children of the
(38:25):
eighties and the nineties, born in the eighties, raised through
the nineties. Whatever. We were feral, right, that's the term
they use. They just hey, get out of the house
and that was it, and you came back when it
was dark. And guess what. We were able to make
it in the world on our own. We didn't need
mom holding our hand or dad talking to our boss. No,
(38:46):
grow up, suck it up and do it yourself. That's
today's crazy news story of today news or nonsense time
And yet again another story showing that the end is
near y'all. Headline reads market for adult pacifiers growing around
(39:08):
the globe. That's right, According to the New York Post,
stressed adults rely on pacifiers to soothe themselves. I feel
a sense of safety from childhood. Huh really, I uh.
Just when you think things can't get any crazier, you
have a catchup smoothie and now adult pacifiers. China seems
(39:31):
to be the prime market for this insanity. From the story,
they're sold to sleep aids and stress relievers and shoppers
are gobbling them up. Some online sellers move thousands each month,
according to the South China Morning Post, and the fans
aren't shy about why. When I'm under pressure at work,
I feel a sense of safety from childhood, one Chinese
(39:51):
buyer said, as reported by The Outlet, Now, before you
start high fiving about how the US is guaranteed to
win World War three, American adults might be worse shocking.
I know, TikTok. Back to the story, TikTok is sucking
it up, literally with videos of American adults pacifying themselves
in traffic, at work, or in the just throws of burnout.
(40:15):
In the comments section of a TikTok by at the Bentist,
one user sore, I just use an adult pacifier. It
hasn't moved my teeth. Been using them for four years.
Another double down. Just get an adult pacifier. I use one,
and the ADHD tip. It works for me. Adh tip,
(40:37):
it works for me. There's no punctuation in this man.
We what a time to be alive. Others admitted that
we gotta do what we gotta do to keep focused
overby it or not getting stuff we need to get
done lol, while one confessed I'm so ashamed. I've been
addicted for twenty three years my entire life.
Speaker 6 (40:56):
I just.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Woh boy. Here are some comments from others who are
on the right side of this thing. One on X posted,
is the metior close? Where is wormwood? Another one said
these aren't real Americans. I don't know. There you go,
(41:19):
adult passifiers gaining ground. I remember in high school they're like,
there were these adult or teenage passifiers, I guess you
would say, and the girls, it was a certain group
of girls, they would have them. And then I remember
the first time I saw a guy with one and
I told him. I was like, hey, man, you really
(41:40):
really think about what you're doing here. I guess people,
if listen, I got a tip for you. If you
think this could help you, but you don't want to
look stupid, go to the store. Buy a ring pop.
Nobody would give you a second look. There you go.
News or nonsense, nonsense news or nonsense time travelers. Here's
(42:03):
the headline. People are flocking to d C to get
a whiff of the unspeakably foul smelling corpse flower. Of course,
if you want to smell death, go to d C.
Speaker 6 (42:15):
Now.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
I don't know about you, but generally, when I catch
a whiff of something gross, I try to avoid smelling
it even further. But no, not these folks today. I
want to teach you that this isn't an incredibly universal
reaction of trying to get away from a stinky smell.
(42:36):
Apparently some people are drawn to it like flies. Here's
a local news report. It's big, it's beautiful, and it's stinky.
It's also in bloom in d C, though not for long.
A scientific name for the giant plant is a more
a more fulfillus easy titanium, but it's most commonly known
(42:57):
as the corpse flower, and it's currently in bloom at
the United States Botanic Garden. I feel like was this
on a movie, like Dennis to Menace mister Wilson, didn't
he have a flower that was blooming? But was it
this thinking thing? I feel like I've seen this in
a movie somewhere. Somebody let me know. Email me Mountain
Buzzradio at gmail dot com, or go to the Mountain
(43:19):
Buzz dot com click on chat. Let me know if
this was in a TV show or a movie or something,
or if I'm just crazy now, I just want to
point out here that there is no reason I would
ever eagerly go to anything called the courts Flower. I
don't care why it's named now, I'm just not going
to go towards it. It may have a beautiful smell,
but the Courts Flower, hey, well look kill me. Well,
(43:42):
I mean the truth in the name. Apparently many people
feel differently. They're flocking to the USBC to see this
plant and experience its distinctive odor. We'll say back to
the story, smells great if you like the smell of
corpse and anything rotting. DC residenta Evan Kennevin that said, well,
(44:04):
that's precisely what you get with this bad boy. The
titan aram is a tall, single leaf branched like a
tree with a heavy tuber. Not that too, Honestly, it's
quite a beautiful plant to look at. It is, all right,
it's huge, and it is. It is something to see.
(44:24):
But looking at it, it's only half the fun. This
thing really really really stinks. Analysis of chemicals released by
the Flower show the stench includes dimesil trostalfide. So I'm
just gonna read to you what these things smell like,
because I can't pronounce this stuff. Anyway, it's smell like limburger, cheese, garlic,
(44:45):
rotten fish, sweaty socks, sweet floral scent. There's that one
good thing, chloriscetic. And then to add to all of
the fun, the smell of fece flour. Stench of DC
has been described as a trash can in the middle
of summer, and it was really bad and full of
(45:07):
stinky trash and was hot and stinking. Okay. It has
also been li liken to rotty garbage and diapers put together. Now, thankfully,
the flowers life cycle is very brief. By the weekend,
this particular smelling bloom will be just a memory and
it'll be a few years before one. This one, anyway,
(45:27):
blooms again and again. Of course, washing it in DC.
It's where the course flower is. News are nonsense. Well
I'm gonna go with news because this is your nation's capital.
People are flocking to to smell death. What a time
to be alive. Time for me to tell you what
(45:49):
to tune into on television tonight on ABC at eight

Match Game, followed by twenty twenty nine Big Brothers on CBS.
