Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi Big Show fans, Citizen Randy at your service.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
And today's podcast is an encore edition of The John
Boy and Billy Big Show. Since the rest of the
crew is off enjoying the juneteenth National Holiday, I thought
i'd give you a treat. This one originally aired on Thursday,
June seventeenth, two thousand and four. Back then, we always
kicked things off with the late great Robert D.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Raeford. Enjoy the show.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Point Counterpoint One day this week, I repeated an item
that was on a twenty twenty program about myths we
live by. On this one that's curmudgeonly reported. John Stossel
was talking about how there is no scarcity of landfill's
and that all these recycling campaigns were not necessary. This
brought a reply from a listener in Knoxville, Tennessee. John
Homer was in the Solid Waste office of the City
(00:51):
of Knoxville. It's a rather long rebuttal from John Skinner,
executive director of this SWANNA as it will be called
Waste Association, which I have to edit, but hope it
gets their counterpoint across. SWANA set an ambitious goal to
create more opportunities for national exposure to solid waste issue
in the mainstream media. Our feeling was that expanded media
(01:14):
coverage would help to establish a better public understanding of
the important issues facing municipal solid waste managers. First opportunity
came when we received a call from ABC's national news
magazine twenty twenty requesting technical information. The show, hosted by
John Stossel, air the following Friday night, was called Myths,
(01:35):
Lies and downright Stupidity. The myth that twenty twenty wanted
to discuss was whether or not we were in danger
of being buried in our own garbage due to the
lack of landfill capacity. Well, Swanna jumped to the chance
without hesitation. The interview lasted for about forty five minutes,
and the question of most interest to ABC was whether
(01:56):
or not we were running out of land to cite
new landfills and therefore were in danger of drowning in
our own garbage. In a nine second piece of a
two minute and forty seven second two minute, forty seven
second segment, Jeremy's interview was reduced to a single sound bite.
This was the swanno. Official Swana made it to prime
time and our name and logo showed up in front
(02:17):
of tens of millions of people who only think about
their garbage when they're taking it to the curve. Their
number of other reasons to recycle, none of them has
anything to do with land filled space or the lack thereof.
First of all, recycling saves energy because producing products from
recycled materials consumes much less energy than from virgin raw materials.
(02:39):
This can significantly reduce the consumption of energy from renewable
fossil fuels such as coal, imported oil, natural gas, and
significantly reduce the environmental emissions from energy production, including greenhouse
gases and mercury. Where you can see right there, sir.
While they will certainly trunk h your sound bite, it
goes on to say, recycle also avoids the adverse environmental
(03:02):
impacts of mining, harvesting, and processing virgin raw materials, so on,
so on, so on, so on. Thirdly, recycling will reduce
the need for and the cost of long term care
of landfills, including the potentially very high cost of future
corrective action. Perhaps it's time to rekindle the national discussion
on the real value of recycling so that it cannot
(03:23):
be threatened by a nine second sound bite. That's the
counterpoint from the executive director of Swanna, John H. Skinner,
And you can certainly see from his counterpoint why they
cut them so much. I see the recycling truck coming
largely into my neighborhood every Monday. It's a big truck,
(03:43):
most modern, usually with two men grabbing the recycling plastic
containers and slamming them into the truck and then throwing them,
never placing them at throwing them sometimes all the way
across the street and often in driveways. And I'm one
about the expense of this operation. And I'm wondering why
(04:03):
I should put out all those newspapers and magazines that
I paid for go out to be recycled to make
more newspapers and magazines, which I will also pay for.
And I'm wondering, as I pick up this box full
of papers, very heavy, when someone is going to slip
and fall under this heavy load, break something and soothe
the city or the recycling people. And I wonder why
(04:24):
it hasn't happened already. One more thing about sound bites
on TV. That's like arguing with the umpire. They'll take
an hour's worth of stuff and put less than a
minute on the air. It's the nature of the Beast.
Robert d Rayfer, John Boy and Billy.

Money if for nothing, ticks for free, money if for nothing,

What for free?
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Heard that song in our classic rock format. It's one
of the few I can stand musically that they play.
But like so many of these so called rock and
roll songs, they have sparse lyrics. That's one of two
lines repeated over and over like this one money for nothing?
But what is he saying? After that? What for free?
So first thing I asked an expert, John Boyn. He laughed,
(19:08):
says it's chicks for free. Chicks, I said, chicks, says
in girls females. I suppose, And I thought these rock
and roll generation boys were hit. Don't they know there
is no such thing as chicks for free? You'll pay
some way? What else?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Ah?
Speaker 3 (19:27):
The latest item from the fire mark United States. Are
the offended is old folks? Headline words for old need
an update, says here consider the following words often used
to refer to the elderly old fogy, old bird, little
old lady, grumpy, old man, geezer, Lucie o'baron a PhD if.
The North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service says it's time to
(19:49):
think twice about using them. She says the language of
aging helps create or reinforce stereotypes of what it is
like to be an older adult, even though the images
of unrealistic and virtually obsolete. She says hearing this language
may influence our attitudes about and behavior toward older people,
and it may even our own aging process.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
See here.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You make fun old folks make you old. She suggests
the following. Change your opinion of the word old. Instead
of saying you're not getting older, you're getting better, try
saying you're getting older and better. Bo, don't believe that.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Believe this.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Get nold ain't for sissies. Expand your expectations for older people,
expressing surprise at an older person's accomplishments, for instance, someone
who is.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Driving or still working.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
How about one jumps out of airplanes every once in
a while. Roger Motorcycle cross country. If you're looking for
more positive words to replace those negative ones listed above,
the following list is a place to begin. A woman
or man of age, vintage, wise, distinguished, seasoned, veteran, classic,
(21:06):
not old fart shoot. Lots of good things about getting
old cards you can play. I'll deal a hand of
that later. Robert D. Rayford, never call me senior citizen.
On the John boyn Billy Show.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Good morning, The Big Show is on your radio. It's Thursday,

Speaker 11 (21:55):
We're here from the Maximum next.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Good morning, and the Big Show is on the radio.
All right, let's get this in right here.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Hello big show, y'all boy, milla Yo man, Max Max,
How you doing it?
Speaker 7 (22:31):
You see? I'm maddering heats on a board hall. No,
that's how useful. I'm mad in a box on win
here Now I tell dumba I'm madding a mud fan. No,
how ugly man, I step on the talking scale, says
one at a time. Please, how fat?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I anyway you're mad?
Speaker 7 (22:54):
I'm plump pixelated. What about weddings, specifically, yay wedding? I
might call me the other day. His daughter is fixing
to get married. Him and his wife was on Amazon
dot com at internet book store deal as looking for
a book on how to plan a wedding, said they
got about two dozen matches. One of them was get
(23:14):
this the Essential Guide to Gay and Lesbian Wedding. That's right,
there's actually a book on how to throw a gay wedding,
And I reckon you need that because the last thing
you ordered a gay wedding is a breach of traditional etiquette.
Gold fuck wall, I look at it. If you named
(23:35):
Steve and your blushing bride's name is Chuck, you already
made at least one faux pomp. If two men are
getting married, you got bigger problems than whether the napkins
matches silver war Yeah, I guess there's all kind of
unique problems when you got two moles getting hitched. Where
do you get a wedding cake with two grooms on it?
What's a preacher saying, Dan, now pronounce you man? And
(24:01):
when it's over, does a man throw the bouquet? Maybe
he should throw a fruit cocktail into the grasp? I
ha tell some lesbian weddings don't do to throw the
bouquet at all, he says. Here the thinking is when
a woman throws a bouquet, it traditionally means she's waiting
for a man to show up. Well, now, lord knows
we wouldn't want that to happen, big old buck. I
(24:26):
had learned some interesting wedding tribune though. For example, at
a gay ceremony, you don't do it something borrowed, something
blue deal. Whichever one's a bride is supposed to have
something bright, something drabs, something absolutely fab gay wedding etiquet
says both grooms should refrain from eating the wedding cake
(24:46):
now cause this bad luck. But because all of the
carbs rusher's greeting the wedding guests at the door. What
they say friends of the top are friends of the bottom.
A couple first dances considered rude for the crowd to
use gloves, those sticks, whistles or laser coiners. But the
good news is about going to good wedding. The parents
don't only have an open bar during the reception, they
(25:09):
usually have one during the ceremony. Let's face it, dad
usually needs it. Look here for the same authors. It's
a complete guide the lesbian conception, pregnancy and child bird.
You really need a whole book for that. I can
give you the highlight Step one. Marry a man. If
(25:30):
a man's not available, all you still prefer to marry
a woman, but a turkey baster at the grocery store
and get David Crawlsby on the fill. I gave bows
and lesbos. Don't get your pennies all in the water
for proper headiquee. I tell you people are supposed to
be fun, not the worst. Shut up. Don't worry about
the rules on how to do something right when you're
(25:51):
doing it. Bath act was anywhere, Quit running my life,

While ago, you don't wonder what we're laughing at. If
you could hear some of the stuff it went on
when the MIC's off, be something else. A while ago,
I was commenting on the item I read in the
newspaper this morning, headline words for old need update please.
This is the United States of the offended. Don't make
(27:46):
fun of old folks. Don't call them old farts, geezers, grumpy,
old fogeye say vintage person, venerable, seasoned, distinguished, classic, And
about this most often heard of all these days, old
far what's the difference between the fart from an old
person than a fart from a young person? Only difference
(28:07):
I can hear or smell is as you get old,
you never trust a fart. And this brought on a
serious question by cohorts. As I stand in shorts before them,
the kind I wore a last war when I was
a boy of ten, I asked Randy, our fashionista, what
he thought of my shorts. He said, the shorts are
(28:28):
okay for this kind of weather, but those black socks
have got to go. Oh my said, of course. I
had to argue with that, as I do with my
wife of Randy's age. Just last evening, walking to town
for an ice cream cone of the Cabarras Creamery, as
I did when I was a boy of ten, I
had black socks on and she jumped on me again
(28:50):
about that, said I should always wear white socks with
that kind of outfit, and I argued, look, I have
on black shorts, a yellow short sleeve shirt trimmed in black,
and black new balanced shoes. Just seems that wearing white
socks for that would be well incongruous, a color clash
that makes the feet stand out like a spotlight. Jack Wood,
(29:14):
who was once the fashion center among the Ivy League
set in Charlotte, put it this way when he saw
anyone off the tennis court wearing white socks, said, looks
like he has a bad case of athletes foot.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Look.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
I had to screw my courage to the sticking place
just to wear these shorts into work. Although it seems
to be the uniform of the day around here. I
started to wear my authentic Bermuda shorts from Trillingers in Bermuda,
remember brought him over on the boat when the Big
Show crew cruised there some years ago. And I also
(29:49):
have the authentic Bermuda socks longer folded down properly just
below the knee, which is the uniform of the day
among the well dressed Bermuda man. That and a nice
shirt and a tie with the blue blazer. And they
wear wear these socks in all colors as well as white.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I have some.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
White ones, I have some blue ones, I have some
pink ones and some yellow ones. So there, mess with me.
I'll just take the socks off and that's worst of
all seeing somebody wearing going down the road, why going
somewhere in the party, and they have the shoes on
usually loafers and no socks. H Robert d Ray for

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Hello, Marie, This is Marie the French bay. Y'all freaks
have a ball. What they call that bojo jun bar
that is known as a huge.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Hey, Chris, you got the bag boys and Looks corporate
briefcase and you were qualified for big show trip up

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Alight, it'll be good. Stay on the side of the
road right quick.
Speaker 4 (37:49):
Jackie will join You went out on the side of
the road unless you come right.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Welcome, No, sir, No, ma'am. I don't like this way
of dressing so casually. The white socks debate, notwithstanding set
(38:16):
that aside. I cringe and grumble when I see the
men's fashion magazines today, like the New York Times Sunday magazine.
Young men having shaved in days hair tossle like they
slept on it and got up and combed it with
an egg beater. And they have that petulant look about them,
powdy lips, sullen eyes. Clothes look like they were thrown together,
(38:39):
shirt sleeves too long, unbuttoned. The look is more than casual,
it's sloppy. Besides, they all look queer to me. What
about the people we saw walking into our nation's capital
to pay respects to former President Ronald Reagan? So many
of them looked so disrespectful. Many of them looked as
if they just come off the golf course, the municipal
(39:03):
golf course, over part of the bowling league, or the
Mills softball team. Ronald Reagan himself is always well dressed,
except for that awful brown suit he used to wear,
seldom seen on his ranch in anything but a colt
and tie. And even on the ranch he was handsomely
dressed in herd owner shek riding the range. But we
(39:25):
saw on TV many of his admirers who went to
pay their respects dressed in flip flops, sneakers, tank tops,
halter cargo shorts, tight butt sprung shorts below the navel
and below the crack, bare middrifts, and T shirts with
all sorts of slogans. Yes, many of them proved positive
(39:47):
that more than half of all Americans are too fat,
and nearly that many downright obeeses in clothing or lack
of it that emphasized their corpulence. However, that's a the
contrast to the uniform of the day among politicians and
lawyers navy blue suit, blue or white shirt and red tie,
(40:08):
only breaking that mold with a yellow one when they're
feeling frisky. Next time you pay respects, bear the head,
not the butt and belly. Who says that? I say that?
Robert d Ray for John Boy and Billy Showy.

Good morning, A big show is on the radio, all right,

There.
Speaker 4 (46:49):
Well, he learned to play the accordion at the age

Speaker 5 (47:04):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
Malo once said the secret to a successful long term
relationship is don't get married, to which all the girls said.
Manelo's producer, Ron Dante, was lead singer for the Archie's
cartoon group. We're saying the nineteen sixty nine hit Sugar Sugar.
How about that.
Speaker 4 (47:24):
To disguise his identity while traveling, Manelo often registers at
hotels as John Burrows, as a fake name that was
formerly used by Elvis Presler.
Speaker 1 (47:37):
Barry Manilo come on, you've sang a Barry Manilow song

Should be pray for it again. Boy's been talking about
NASCAR today. Is there anyday they don't?
Speaker 1 (48:28):
You say?
Speaker 3 (48:30):
Well, here's the story that makes the front page of
our newspaper today about the clash of personalities between Lowe's
Motor Speedway and Charlotte's top political leaders about cutting down
some trees, not just a few trees, but three hundred
and seventy three trees which the city says they should
replant or should plant for the ones that they cut down.
(48:54):
The city says the speedway cut down these trees and
violation of an agreement with the city that they protect
the trees in exchange for a zoning change that enable
the track to build a parking lot on the site. Now,
this dispute has brought some harsh exchanges between the principles
owner and billionaire Bruton Smith, who says he has about
two hundred and fifty lawyers working for him, takes a
(49:16):
shot at County Commissioned Chairman Tom Cox, saying Tom Cox
has some kind of metal problem. It may be something serious.
Tom Cox says, I think somebody's gotten too close to
some gas fumes. Mayor Pat McCrory says they need to
replant trees, and we mean quality trees, big trees.
Speaker 1 (49:35):
In about this.
Speaker 3 (49:35):
Time, someone should play the song popular back in the sixties.
They've paved paradise and put up a parking lot. I've
observed over the years what the Speedway wants the Speedway gets.
You don't believe that. Look at all the big new
roads they've built leading into the Speedway Speedway Boulevard, how
they widen roads, how they put up multiple multiple traffic
(49:57):
lights and signs. Looks as though the entire High State
Highway Patrol is out there during races, and so on.
Many many things that lead me to believe what the
Speedway wants the Speedway gets. Robert d Rayfer, John Boyd

Rayfert, who remembers a newscaster named Gabriel Heater who used
to start off his program by saying, there's good news tonight. Well,
there's good news this morning. Dateline Atlanta, the world's largest
oil company, is enforcing one of the toughest company cell
phone policies in the United States. On June first, Exxon
(58:37):
Mobile implemented a new rule banning the employees and contractors
from using cellular phones while driving on company time. Exxon
Mobile said the new policy will have a big impact
on its employees and contractors, who collectively drive up to
one and a half million miles each day. This is
going to also appear in an off piece in The
(58:59):
New York Times, the Washington Post, in the National Journal.
The new rule, posted on the company's internal websites, says
employees cannot use cell phones while driving, but are not
required to turn off the phones in the car. Instead,
it says employees should allow incoming calls to be answered
by voicemail and should only retrieve messages and make calls
(59:22):
once they have parked in a safe and secure location.
Exonmobile is a company that responds to sound scientific fact.
We had a lot of debate on whether a cell
phone policy would truly help reduce risk and improve safety,
set a statement from Mike Henderick, manager of Exonmobile Corporation
safety Programs. When we ask some of our scientists to
(59:45):
do a thorough study of the available research, the results
were compelling. The company based its new policy on its
own study of nine independent reports on cellular phone use safety.
That study concluded that the use of a cell phone
while driving significantly degrades driving performance and contributes to an
(01:00:06):
increased risk of vehicular incidents. The report also said that
breaking is three times slower than a person under the
influence of alcohol and four times more distracted than a
person not using a phone. The policy's implementation date was
chosen to coincide with National Safety Month, and that's good
(01:00:27):
news if only the nation would follow suit. Robert D Rayferd,
