Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the City that changes the world peers Rose with
three things you need.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
To know for your Tuesday, Rose.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
What you got for us is the season for some
spring cleaning. DC residents are being encouraged to join a
c why a spring cleaning effort. Mayor Bowser actually kicked
off the initiatives yesterday, saying it's a chance to show
love for city neighborhoods and reflect pride in the community
to the Department of Public Works is doing targeted cleanups
in areas needing special attention, while the Department of Transportation

(00:28):
is working to restore and repave roads affected by winter
utility work. The Mayor is also sponsoring her eighth annual
Spring Cleanup Day and that is this Saturday. So DC
Health is warning the public about a measles exposure at
a restaurant in Northwest DC. This is what happened at
the Five Guys at fourteen hundred I Street between three

(00:48):
point thirty and six thirty pm on April fifth. So
they're saying that anyone who might have been at the
restaurant at the time is being advised to contact DC
Health for more information.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Just not great. And today is tax Day.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
If you haven't started or you aren't done, you can
follow them extension. Make sure you do that today so
you don't get in trouble. But there are a lot
of companies that are offering free food for you today,
which I think is pretty cool. I'm putting a whole
blog up for you of all the different places, but
Chrispy Cream is giving a sweet tax break, so you
can buy a dozen original glazes or assorted donuts and

(01:23):
get a second dozen original glaze for just the cost
of sales tax. If you order online, you can use
the code of tax break all one word and get
it for free, which is pretty nice going to.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Start your day.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
That deal is limited to two dozen per instore purchase
and one free dozen online. I'm wrote those are the
three things you need to.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Know for the day. Thank you, Roch. You're welcome. I
know that we have a lot of folks who listen
to the show on podcasts, which we appreciate. So if
you're commuted so only like ten minutes or whatever, you
can listen to the whole show podcast later. There's an
issue with Spotify right now for some reason that we're fixing.
But if you want to get the show's podcast, so
you can hear everything else today you can. They'll search
intern John in your morning show. Wherever else you get podcasts,

(02:03):
whether it's iHeart Radio or Apple, it's all right there.
I wanted this real quick too. I one of the
reasons I love Minor League baseball is because they make
money by getting people to the stadium. Like, they don't
really have the TV deals that the MLB teams do,
so for them, it's like they need you to come
to the stadium. And because that, they do fun things.
And Minor league baseball teams have like some of the

(02:25):
funniest names I think ever, because it's not they don't care.
They know they have to stand out. For instance, there's
the Gastonia honey Hunters and their logos and patch Yes,
North Carolina. There's the Bameton rumble Ponies. There's the Norwich
ce Unicorns. I like that. There's the Hartford yard Goats. Funny.

(02:50):
There's the Amarillo sod Poodles in the Yeah, it looks
like Timona is what's hell is he?

Speaker 3 (02:59):
No?

Speaker 2 (03:00):
No?

Speaker 3 (03:00):
No?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
The meerkat there it is.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
There's the Rocket City trash pandas, which is the raccoons. Yeah,
the Burlington Sock puppets. That's cute. There's the Carolina Disco Turkeys,
very exciting. The reason I bring this up there's a
team in Sacramento, California, the river Cats. They gotten some
heat recently because a lot of times teams will do

(03:23):
like a run of like we're gonna do for this week,
where we call this name and we'll have unique jerseys. Okay,
so they are they have playing to the San Francisco
team or sacramount of team rather to change the name
to the gold Diggers in honor of the fact that
they're in California and that's what the gold Rush was.
Here's the logo. It's a minor. It's guy's pitchfork thing

(03:45):
there to mine things. Sure, they have since had to
apologize because people said the name is offensive forgers, because
they say it's misogynistic and it's a joke on somebody
from the Sacramento Bee columnist that and caused uproar. Because
of that, the team has had to apologize and it's
canceled the campaign.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
But California, everybody knows that, like everybody's going west because
of the gold Rushed.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
The forty nine ers football team, yeah, name that because
of it to me, there's a lot of issues in
the world.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
But there's a man with a little hat and this
little mining thing digging for gold.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, the if the logo had a stack of cash
and then yeah, like if to me, an offensive version
of this would be if it was obviously to attack
women and it had like high heels, lipstick and cash,
then maybe you have a case. Maybe you could say
that's not great. You're in California. It's a miner, you know,
and he's got the hat on in the light as

(04:42):
a baseball instead of on his helmet, instead of like
the actual light lover. So to me, there's probably big
issues facing the folks in Califoria.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Somebody is just like having bad day. It's like I
feel like fighting someone. Yeah, and I we're gonna throw
this out there, see if it sticks.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
I kind of wish the team would have done like
the Jimmy Seafood route and just kind of leaned into
it instead. They said it was not our intention, Our
attention was a great crazily referenced the rich history of
Sacramento in Gold Country. Our approach was wrong. We're sorry
for the mistake. No longer be using this identity. I
mean it does suck. They didn't stand up for themselves.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
But also it's like their minor league teams, so they
probably just don't want to get like yeah, like I'm dragged.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
I don't know. Now A fan of the logo. I
don't like the color scheme. It's kind of like black
and like not really gold, but like that, uh like
watery mustard gold. That makes sense. Yeah, I mean, I
don't like the color scheme, but overall, I mean California
probably have bigg issues in It's fine.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Yeah, so yesterday.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
But by the way, speaking of all baseball teams, you
ever need somebody to throw the first pitch, we would
love to. Yeah, right down the mill, baby, Solid twenty
five miles per hour. Intern Johnny Marny
