Always want I've seen pictures of it. It looks kind
of scary. I'd like to see the thing, But what
is it?
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Is that the name of the movie, though, some kids
came up with a scary guy that said it was
in the woods wherever they live by, and he was
a slender man. He had long arms and long legs
and was real creepy looking. They made a movie about it.
But a couple of years ago, I think ten years
ago or so, a couple of kids started killing other
kids and blaming it on the slender Man. Oh did
(01:18):
you remember that?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
I remember the slender Man, but not the actual killing
of the children killings.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Get the dune dunk done?

Speaker 3 (01:26):
So in Wisconsin, one of the twelve year old girls
that was killing people and blaming it on the slender

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Okay, let's say we got to move this Myers patient.
He's killed thirty seven people. He's always on Halloween. I
always on Halloween night. He's broken out of seventeen facilities. Well,
let me see what we got here. August first, No,
that's no good women convict September twenty thirty. No, no,
no Halloween night. Say that's how sweat.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
It's always the day before because the movie starts October
thirty and then they don't even show the escape. It's
just the bus on its side and the handcuffs are empty.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Cause he's chained to the wall of the bus and
all his other business.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
A woman convicted in slender Man stabbing is missing in Wisconson.

I have a slender Man for breakfast, a slender Man
for lunch, and then a sensible dinner at night.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
There you go. Who was convicted of stabbing a classmate
to please the fictional slender Man character when she was twelve.
She is now twenty two years old, and she cut
off her monitoring bracelet and left the group home Saturday nights.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So they had a murder in like a camp situation
where it's just correct.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Gracer Morgan Gracer is her name, spent nearly seven years
in a mental hospital. I'm sure that helped. After being
sentenced to a maximum of forty years, and a judge
released her to a group home in January.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
There you go, huh another judge.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
She and another girl attacked their classmate in Milwaukee suburb
in twenty fourteen, stabbing the victim nineteen times nineteen. Both
girls believed they had to commit the attack or the
slender Man would harm their families. Gracer's attorney released a
(03:57):
video urging her to turn herself in immediately. You think,
goe man, creepy. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
I smelled, I may I smell a made for TV
mini series going.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
But of course this was a lot. This was a
long time ago. This was over ten years ago, so
they used to actually convict people that step in.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah, no, kid, I forgot to tell you. On that
Netflix Major League Baseball deal, you know, they had a
couple of things. They had the opening season night game,
they had what was a home run derby, and then
another thing they had on it was they're going to
do a Field of Dreams game.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Oh they've done those before.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Oh yeah, they've done that at the field.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
And they're gonna oh so they've done that before. Ye Iowa.
Is that where it's at Iowa?
Speaker 3 (04:48):
They built Yeah, they built it for the movie and
just left it and then people play baseball.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
They also have music festivals there.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Now it's still there.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
It is still there.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
So they got they got the Field of Dreams game.
But the old Tommy people walk out of the corn
interrupt the game, going ah retrots rocking out here.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
See Netflix is a good job and knowing which baseball
games people clearly care about because nine of them people don't.
The general population does not care about the rest of them.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I thought Greg Galliad told me this stat years ago
because he realizes it's the experience at the ball field, right, correct,
He said they did one year they did. They surveyed
people leaving the game of Triple A and Major League
baseball games and asked who won, what was the score,
and it was over eighty percent could not tell you
(05:40):
who won the game or what the score was.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
And they've even sped up the game. They've even sped
up the game. And they really have because he used
to be like this fell tipped away and the cot
goes to oh on one on Ken Caminetti has he
steps up to the plate.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You know, I was in kemen Eddie, Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
One takes a look the cabinet, steps out of the box,
doesn't like the way his footing was there. That gives
us time to say that they didn't.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's yeah, they have a shot clock on the pictures. Yeah,
and you can't and the and the batter cannot keep
stepping out of the box.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So when you do the field of dream games, do
the people in the stands dress up over timey too?
They should?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Right? That probably happens a lot.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Here's here's a k neck, holl give me a sewed
up popcorn and a crackerjack.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
That was one of those irritating lines from a movie.
People would would not you build it?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
They would come, oh gosh. People still say that. Okay,

It's a consumer family consumer organization. If you're shopping for
your kids this holiday season, fair Play is warning those
considering purchasing a toy that uses artificial intelligence. Fair Play

an advocate for organizations that focus on health and emotional
well being of children. UH. The remission for this organization
is to eliminate the elimination of explosive and harmful business
practice when it comes to children. They say that marketers
in big tech are the main offenders when it comes
to toys that can under undermine children's healthy devose. Well, because.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I think you should stab the cat?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
What yeah, I know, well that was There was a
new story last week.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
There was like an artificial intelligence intelligence Teddy Bear that
was like telling the kids where the knives were that
sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Well, because you ask them where are the knives and
the and they'll say they're in the kitchen.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Right, this said, how where where is my mom?
Speaker 3 (07:46):
And then I think the video I saw, I saw that.
I saw the same story, John, and I think the
story was. They also told them how to start a fire.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
And there were there was also some sexuals. There's also
sexual conversations going on with these AI teddy Oh my gosh,
it was bad.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Hi Timmy. The following items can fit into a electrical socket.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Well, even that crazy Teddy Bear is better than some
of the parents out.
Speaker 1 (08:09):

Speaker 2 (08:10):
It's like the movie ted Remember the Yeah, I watch out.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I was great. Oh, it's it's great. I'll tell you
a line when we're getting a meeting, I'll watch out.
Here comes some of the old timey people from the
last story. Ah, hey, it's not a toy. She you
want a toy. Here's a toy. Push this hoop down
this dirt road with a stick. Now that's a toy.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
That's a fun game.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Here's a block. I would that my grandpappy made a
train out of.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
I mean, how stupid was the slinky?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Is the no? I love the slinky? Are you kidding me?
Pet Rock? Though? Come on? Are you a me football player?
Do you all know this story? Getting arrested for stabbing.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Too to he used to play for Kentucky? I think?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Oh did it really? According to a statement or released
by U A B, two players the football team were
stabbed by a teammate. The incident allegedly occurred hours before
the UAB USF game on Saturday. UAB issued a statement
that didn't mention the players involved, but Daniel McKinney has
(09:14):
been arrested and booked on charges of aggravated assault attempted
murder that afternoon. The two players that were wounded, they're
not giving the names up, but they say they are
in stable condition. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
The coach was mocking them before the game. I'm not hurt.
My teammates.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Doesn't sound like team players.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
That didn't happen. It's made that part up just to confirm. Uh,
TSA is going to charge you if you don't know.
If the American government said, if we don't get the
real ID, you're gonna die, You're going to die. Something's
(09:59):
gonna happ up and a piano is gonna fall on
your head or something crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
It's gonna be an acme anvil.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Is that why the kid died in Final Destination? The
one that had the piano fall didn't have his real life.
That gone so stories old as time.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
They came out with this in two thousand and five.
We've talked about this a lot. They realized just after
four or five years, this was a huge mistake that
this really doesn't get you anywhere except for on base
a military base and fly on a plane. But we'll
make everyone stand in line and pay extra for a
not a fake ID, which is a driver's life.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
That's not a real ideas like, so I'm trying to
get right now. As a matter of fact, i just
want a regular driver's life.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
So they said, now TSA is like, well, all right,
there's a lot of people that are showing up with
just their driver's license. Right, So they're saying, we're going
to charge you more?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
We're just gonna charge you for I traveled eighteen bucks.
I guess you got to pull eighteen bucks out of
your pocket when you get to the TSA checkpoint.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Well okay, but listen to this. So then the government
sells things to circumvent these like for example, we're TSA
pre check. Yeah, so we pay the extra whatever it
is for two years or whatever whatever it's worth it
for us.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Well, now they have global entry, and we're gonna do
that as well, right because the only place we vacation
is Mexico, So what makes sense for us? But my
point is we somewhat circumvent customs coming back by going
through this global entest. Yeah, but it's just it's a
turn bucks. It's probably more than that a piece.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
They have a new lane. Did you see that at
the airport. It's like a little Star or whatever. It's
like a little I can't remember. Oh God, I downloaded
the app and I said, oh I want that. It
gets you supposed to get you on faster than pre check.
It's like Lightning Lane and Disney World it's way too expensive.
Probably correct. So I got on it and said, oh, I'll
sign up for that. Clear is what it's called. It's
(12:01):
called clear There there it is. There's the app. And
I went through the whole process, put my name in,
YadA YadA, da da da two hundred and eighty dollars.
And I was like, no, I don't travel enough.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I don't do it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
My wife is going to do it because she she
flies out every week, so she's going to do it.
But I was like, no, I don't fly that much.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
I'm doing it.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
I'm clear is the name of it. I think we
have Bill Bell coming in.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
We do have Bill Bell coming in. He's actually gonna
be playing in the years.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Okay, he might help us.

two days until I take a vacation again. Again. I
don't want to be in a meeting I want to

to remind people every single day, you know, slow down,
don't drive distracted and we're all we all break it.
We all break that rule every once in a while
and catch ourselves and put the phone down or speeding
just slowed down. And right now we have so much
construction going on. I've I grew up in Louisville. I've
(19:41):
never I've never had a time in my life to
where there's not a way you can go that you're
not going to run into construction. That's been a challenge, Yes,
it has.
Speaker 8 (19:49):
It's it's you know, especially coming into the holiday season
and with with all of the constructions is going on, obviously,
traffic is gonna double, sometimes triple, and so you know,
anything you can do to you know, slow down when
you're in that area because obviously there are people that
are working in those construction zones.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
You know, they they have families and they want to
get home at the end of the day.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
And by the way, there's cameras now yeah, yes, yeah,
but people get hurt more than you know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yes they do.
Speaker 8 (20:13):
And it's and it's we here at the Transportation Cabinet.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
We obviously because.
Speaker 8 (20:17):
A lot of those workers that are in those zones
are transportation employees, We hear about those and so you
know it's now with the with the addition of the
speed cameras that they have in those work zones, you know,
hopefully that's going to remind folks to phone, you know,
to slow down, pay attention more. There are people in
these these work zones right now. I mean, you know,
obviously with with your phone, make sure you don't have
(20:39):
your phone out, you know, eliminate your distractions, watch your speed,
make sure you always got your seat belt on.

Year's Back, and it was so effective for me because
it was the child. Yeah, the children of of Uh yes,
they're saying, my daddy is today, he's the one that
does this. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It was powerful, it was and really powerful, and I
think it puts a it puts a face to you know.
You can talk about numbers and you can talk about
well this person works there, this person works.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
But I think once.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
You you touch on a personal level, which I think
is what you have to do to people to reach
their hearts. And I think that that was a very
successful one with the child.

Speaker 8 (21:41):
You know, you've got the college kids that are coming
home to be with family, and you have family, you know,
people that are traveling to go to family, family across
the state or in other states. So you know, you
just want to make sure, you know, every time you're
on that road, no matter how long the trip is
or how short the trip is, you know, make sure
you've got your seat belt on, you know, pay attention
to what's going on around you. Put that cell phone down.
(22:02):
You know, it's cell phones are everyday part of our
life now and they have been that way for a while,
and there it's very easy to get distracted by those
phones because it's become second nature to us.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Well, the phone. Also, the good side of that is
that it slowed me down because the thing knows when
I'm gonna pull into the Like if I go to
Indianapolis for We Grow Harry Indy, right, it will tell
me when I leave this parking lot, you're going to
pull into the parking lot at two o six, right,
And I will pull into the parking lot at two
oh six. So it's like, how does it know that?
So if I speed? Even if I speed, what am
(22:33):
I gaining three minutes? It's like Vegas four minutes out
of a two hour trip, right, Yeah, So that really
slowed me down. I was like, it doesn't make a
difference if I'm doing eighty five or seventy eight miles
an hour or sixty eight. Rights, you're gonna get there
around the same time. Plus, I love it because it
gets me off the like if there's a wreck, you know,
(22:53):
it'll update and it'll say get off right now, and
it'll take you back roads and get you back on
the Expressway. So it's a good thing.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Bill, Bill, you never beat that time, do you know?
It's always a no.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
I never beat the two o six. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (23:05):
So we're doing a lot of projects in Jefferson County
now and just outside of Jefferson County, I know, ky TC.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
He's doing the one in sixty four. Uh.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
We look at the end of those projects and it's
going to make the quality of life and traffic and
safer and more efficient. It's some people say it's a
lot which there is a lot of There are a
lot of projects, whether you've got Louisville Water, you've got
federal projects, state projects, and it's all coming together now.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Yeah. At the same time, yeah, it's it's close. But
that exchange where you're talking about the VA hospital, it's
always been a mess. It's been never not been a mess.
So I hope this all improves all of it. Because
the VA is going to have their own exit, right.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
I believe they're they're enhancing that exit. Yeah, and we're
we're meeting with them. We're What we want is better
communication and I think that's happening now. And we have
our communications director here at Kristen and so we're working
closely with KYTC and making sure we know what's happening
or what's coming down the pipe, right, because if we're
going to get some news, we want to get it
(24:12):
sooner than later. And as far as as safety goes,
I mean, Brad talked about buckle up, phone down, and
our seat belt usage in Jefferson County is really good.
It's been the best it's been in probably six years.
And statewide, I look at the state numbers as well
as Jefferson County, this could be the lowest fatality count
(24:34):
in probably twelve thirteen years. But we just need to
we need to keep up the diligence, and definitely when
you're downtown especially, I've seen some near misses down here.
People were looking at their phones, their speeding. There's a
lot of pedestrians, a lot of bicyclists, So we need
to be very digilent about paying attention when you're driving
(24:56):
and don't speed.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
It's just not worth it. Like you said, Tony, what
is it going to gain you a minute?
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Seriously, if you really speed, you'll gain three minutes on your.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Talking to These guys are great, But we got royalty
right here. Get over get over here?
Speaker 6 (25:11):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Yeah, Jean, Western Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Teen, Western Kentucky. What's your name?
Speaker 9 (25:18):
Hi? My name is Bella.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Hi, Bella. You got the crowd?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, Bill, He'll help her out with the headphones. For
God's sakes, what are you good for over there? She's struggling.
She's because she's got a Tierra God. I know you
like to on bill.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
What's your name?
Speaker 9 (25:37):
My name is Bella Franklin.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Bella Franklin. So you are Miss Western Kentucky Team.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yes, Bella? Were you named after the Vampire movie?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (25:47):
No, wasn't there a Bella in the Vampire movie? The
mom is looking at me going, I did not name
her after that? I love the sash and all that.
How did you win this contest?
Speaker 10 (25:58):
So it's a local title under the Miss America organization.
So in June I get to go compete at Miss
Kentucky's team. And so I was in the local pageant
and we did an interview, We did a fitness portion,
a talent, and a gown.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Oh wow, talent? What was your talent?
Speaker 9 (26:13):
I did a dance to Great Balls of Fire?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Stop it?
Speaker 3 (26:15):
How do you even know what that song is?
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Yeah, Jerry, oh look at it. That's it in list dances.
Go throw your tiar off if you do it.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
I don't know, No, do not know. Don't do that.
That's a five thousand dollars TV behind her. So how
do you did you know this song before? Someone suggested
a dance to it?
Speaker 10 (26:35):
I think I did, but not as well as I
know it now I've run it a lot of times.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
What was Did they ask you questions like in the
interview session and all that? Were they hard? Do you
have good answers?
Speaker 9 (26:47):
It depends.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
So a lot of the time they ask us questions
off of our paperwork, but also sometimes I'll ask us
some current event questions or even ask us some fun
questions too, about you know what, what's our favorite holiday?
And what's a color two?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
So that's it's a true.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Is it true that Miss Eastern Kentucky showed up with
a two liters mountain? Do it think of mentos? And
that was her talent? She made the mountain, discared up
with the mentos?
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Maybe if it was, I wasn't there for video.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Hey miss Eastern could show knife? Yeah, man, you gotta
be careful.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
So what do you want to be?
Speaker 10 (27:17):
I want to be a veterinary when i'm older, But
right now I'm working for Miss Kentucky's team.
Speaker 9 (27:22):
Hopefully that's coming soon.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
How old are you?
Speaker 9 (27:24):
I'm fifteen?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Fifteen?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Let me ask you this. Oh my god, you start
driving at fifteen? You got your permit yet?
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Yes? I got it back in June, I congratulate you
because most fifteen year olds stare at their shoes and
don't have anything to say. This has been good for you,
like going through this process and to be able to
be challenged like this.
Speaker 9 (27:45):
Yes, definitely. So. I actually have a platform within the
Miss America organization. Ah you do, called buckle Up with
Bellow or oh really, yes.
Speaker 10 (27:53):
I educate younger people about the importance of seat belts
and limiting distracted driving and putting their phones down, and
especially with the new hospital fifteen coming out where fifteen
year olds can drive, that especially has helped to.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
You understand that's kind of scary fifteen year old drive.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
You understand you're now starting to drive, so and you're
the spokesperson for it. If you get a ticket, that's
not gonna look good. Okay, okay, what kind of car
you think you're gonna get?
Speaker 9 (28:22):
I actually have a car already. Oh boy, yes, I
love it. It's an Audi. It's my favorite thing ever.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Oh boy, it is a convertible, don't you.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You're you're a brand new drivers. You're bright, driving slowly
with people, yell hey, get out of my way.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
I think you are the driver so far.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
What do you think you need work on when you're driving.
What do you not do well in driving?
Speaker 10 (28:43):
Definitely paying attention to other people around me. You know,
I pay attention most of the time, but sometimes there's
there's some crazy people on the roads.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Parallel park. No, she nailed it. It's not about you.
You gotta watch out for the other knuckleheads that aren't
watching out for you. Do you understand a roundabout?
Speaker 10 (28:59):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I do, okay, because there's more of those.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I'm still working on that.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I know you are. It's just like the third listen third.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
My wife called me over today. She said, you left
the store forty five minutes, so why are you I'm
damn round about just going in a circle.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I was. I'm like the third Tourney's like, well, what
did you just say? Left? Just left?
Speaker 1 (29:20):
She had you come in there and get me out
of it. Okay, So listen, best of luck to you
while you're driving. What are the next steps from Miss
Western Kentucky Teen? Where you go from here?
Speaker 10 (29:30):
So, like I said, I'm competing in June at Miss
Kentucky's teen, and then if I have the chance to
win Miss Kentucky's team, I get to compete at Miss
America's teen in September.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Wow. So are you good friends with these people or
is it pretty caddy?
Speaker 9 (29:42):
Yes, it's really fun.
Speaker 10 (29:43):
The main point of the Miss America Crown is sisterhood,
and they truly are like my sisters. I have an
older brother and I don't have a sister, and so
coming into this organization at fourteen years old, where there's
twenty five year olds competing in this Wow competition as well,
was amazing. They're like my older sisters. There's so much fun.
I come go into a room and I haven't seen
them in like six months, and I'm like, hey, Bella,
how are you?
Speaker 9 (30:04):
The run up and give me a big hug, and
it's it's so great.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
If we could just get you to come out of
your show.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Can I just say, cannot bottle a little of your
bubbly I just I want to listen.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I normally don't do this, but here's a page of
some of my jokes.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
No, don't do any of those jokes. Don't use any
any of those.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
You got to be pretty proud of you.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
You got to be pretty proud of that. I am, Yeah,
you're doing it fifteen. They're chief, Oh gosh, are you wrestling.
What were you doing?
Speaker 8 (30:27):
No, I was probably playing baseball on a field somewhere.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
You're at the mall.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
Yeah, hey, I mean I wasn't driving obviously at that right.
No clue where I was going in my life.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
She's impressive, Mom and Dad, great job, Thank you, really impressive.
Oh it's it all you, mom said.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's all you kidding me.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Yeah, I'm just like the chauffeur. That's all I am
at times.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
But it could be nerve racking. I guarantee these contests
are nerve racking during the performances and the answers and
all that. It could be crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Probably it is.
Speaker 8 (30:57):
It is, But and to be honest with you, that's
pretty nerve wracking. But she's pretty good at it. But
what I'm actually more nervous when I'm in the car
with her, even though she's a pretty good driver. But
it's like I said, like she said before, it's watching
the other folks around you that are driving, that are
not paying attention to what they're doing. That's a little
bit more nerve wracking to me than seeing her walk
across the stage in front of a room full of
(31:18):
people and doing her things.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
How many times when she's driving and you're in the
passenger seat. Have you applied the imaginary break?
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Probably at least once or twice long to drive.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
She said that the girls are awesome, that she hangs
out with pageant moms. Are they he run ins with mom?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Mom's over there going, no comments, just for a second.
So our pageant moms as like dads at little league games.
We're going up against the Yeah.
Speaker 8 (31:48):
Wow, it's competitive. I mean, it's a whole different world.
It's very competitive and it.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Yeah, don't drink anything before a performance that's handed to
you from one of your opponents. Moms, that's all I'm saying.
That's all I'm saying. Good on you. She's amazing. She's amazing.
And Bill Bell, we love you.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
You know.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Yes, you're welcome here anytime.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Thanks.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
And just one last thing. You know, we got holidays
coming up. Let's make sure we get to our destinations.
Doesn't matter if you're a little late, but your family
wants you there, whether you're on time or fifteen minutes late.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Just be safe.
Speaker 3 (32:21):

to get through the family get together, but don't get
in the car afterwards.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Thank God that my wife is a teacher.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Do you all see the slender Man?
Speaker 5 (00:50):
The movie?
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Always want I've seen pictures of it. It looks kind
of scary. I'd like to see the thing, But what
is it?
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Is that the name of the movie, though, some kids
came up with a scary guy that said it was
in the woods wherever they live by, and he was
a slender man. He had long arms and long legs
and was real creepy looking. They made a movie about it.
But a couple of years ago, I think ten years
ago or so, a couple of kids started killing other
kids and blaming it on the slender Man. Oh did
(01:18):
you remember that?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
I remember the slender Man, but not the actual killing
of the children killings.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Get the dune dunk done?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Ready? Huh?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
So in Wisconsin, one of the twelve year old girls
that was killing people and blaming it on the slender
Man is twenty two now and has escaped from her
lock up.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Oh no, and guess what tomorrow is. It's what Halloween?
Speaker 3 (01:44):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
No, it's not. I'm sorry I was.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Why do they always moved Michael Myers on October thirtieth?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Okay, let's say we got to move this Myers patient.
He's killed thirty seven people. He's always on Halloween. I
always on Halloween night. He's broken out of seventeen facilities. Well,
let me see what we got here. August first, No,
that's no good women convict September twenty thirty. No, no,
no Halloween night. Say that's how sweat.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
It's always the day before because the movie starts October
thirty and then they don't even show the escape. It's
just the bus on its side and the handcuffs are empty.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Cause he's chained to the wall of the bus and
all his other business.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
A woman convicted in slender Man stabbing is missing in Wisconson.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Did she turn sideways and slip out through the bar?
Speaker 5 (02:34):
She was?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
That's how slender Man escape.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
That's the new diet, is that slender woman?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Is that how slender Man escaped when they locked him
out of He just turned sideways?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Are you doing tre zippitite?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
No, slender you know what you know? How I stay
so fit? How well it's easy, Tony and John Alden.
I have a slender Man for breakfast, a slender Man
for lunch, and then a sensible dinner at night.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
There you go. Who was convicted of stabbing a classmate
to please the fictional slender Man character when she was twelve.
She is now twenty two years old, and she cut
off her monitoring bracelet and left the group home Saturday nights.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So they had a murder in like a camp situation
where it's just correct.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Gracer Morgan Gracer is her name, spent nearly seven years
in a mental hospital. I'm sure that helped. After being
sentenced to a maximum of forty years, and a judge
released her to a group home in January.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
There you go, huh another judge.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
She and another girl attacked their classmate in Milwaukee suburb
in twenty fourteen, stabbing the victim nineteen times nineteen. Both
girls believed they had to commit the attack or the
slender Man would harm their families. Gracer's attorney released a
(03:57):
video urging her to turn herself in immediately. You think,
goe man, creepy. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
I smelled, I may I smell a made for TV
mini series going.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
But of course this was a lot. This was a
long time ago. This was over ten years ago, so
they used to actually convict people that step in.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah, no, kid, I forgot to tell you. On that
Netflix Major League Baseball deal, you know, they had a
couple of things. They had the opening season night game,
they had what was a home run derby, and then
another thing they had on it was they're going to
do a Field of Dreams game.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Oh they've done those before.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Oh yeah, they've done that at the field.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
And they're gonna oh so they've done that before. Ye Iowa.
Is that where it's at Iowa?
Speaker 3 (04:48):
They built Yeah, they built it for the movie and
just left it and then people play baseball.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
They also have music festivals there.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Now it's still there.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
It is still there.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
So they got they got the Field of Dreams game.
But the old Tommy people walk out of the corn
interrupt the game, going ah retrots rocking out here.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
See Netflix is a good job and knowing which baseball
games people clearly care about because nine of them people don't.
The general population does not care about the rest of them.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I thought Greg Galliad told me this stat years ago
because he realizes it's the experience at the ball field, right, correct,
He said they did one year they did. They surveyed
people leaving the game of Triple A and Major League
baseball games and asked who won, what was the score,
and it was over eighty percent could not tell you
(05:40):
who won the game or what the score was.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
And they've even sped up the game. They've even sped
up the game. And they really have because he used
to be like this fell tipped away and the cot
goes to oh on one on Ken Caminetti has he
steps up to the plate.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You know, I was in kemen Eddie, Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
One takes a look the cabinet, steps out of the box,
doesn't like the way his footing was there. That gives
us time to say that they didn't.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's yeah, they have a shot clock on the pictures. Yeah,
and you can't and the and the batter cannot keep
stepping out of the box.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So when you do the field of dream games, do
the people in the stands dress up over timey too?
They should?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Right? That probably happens a lot.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Here's here's a k neck, holl give me a sewed
up popcorn and a crackerjack.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
That was one of those irritating lines from a movie.
People would would not you build it?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
They would come, oh gosh. People still say that. Okay,
are doing well. There's an organization out there called fair Play.
It's a consumer family consumer organization. If you're shopping for
your kids this holiday season, fair Play is warning those
considering purchasing a toy that uses artificial intelligence. Fair Play
(07:00):
an advocate for organizations that focus on health and emotional
well being of children. UH. The remission for this organization
is to eliminate the elimination of explosive and harmful business
practice when it comes to children. They say that marketers
in big tech are the main offenders when it comes
to toys that can under undermine children's healthy devose. Well, because.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I think you should stab the cat?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
What yeah, I know, well that was There was a
new story last week.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
There was like an artificial intelligence intelligence Teddy Bear that
was like telling the kids where the knives were that
sort of thing.

Well, because you ask them where are the knives and
the and they'll say they're in the kitchen.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Right, this said, how where where is my mom?
Speaker 3 (07:46):
And then I think the video I saw, I saw that.

story was. They also told them how to start a fire.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
And there were there was also some sexuals. There's also
sexual conversations going on with these AI teddy Oh my gosh,
it was bad.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Hi Timmy. The following items can fit into a electrical socket.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Well, even that crazy Teddy Bear is better than some
of the parents out.
Speaker 1 (08:09):

train out of.

I mean, how stupid was the slinky?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Is the no? I love the slinky? Are you kidding me?
Pet Rock? Though? Come on? Are you a me football player?
Do you all know this story? Getting arrested for stabbing.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Too to he used to play for Kentucky? I think?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Oh did it really? According to a statement or released
by U A B, two players the football team were
stabbed by a teammate. The incident allegedly occurred hours before
the UAB USF game on Saturday. UAB issued a statement
that didn't mention the players involved, but Daniel McKinney has
(09:14):
been arrested and booked on charges of aggravated assault attempted
murder that afternoon. The two players that were wounded, they're
not giving the names up, but they say they are
in stable condition. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
The coach was mocking them before the game. I'm not hurt.
My teammates.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Doesn't sound like team players.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
That didn't happen. It's made that part up just to confirm. Uh,
TSA is going to charge you if you don't know.
If the American government said, if we don't get the
real ID, you're gonna die, You're going to die. Something's
(09:59):
gonna happ up and a piano is gonna fall on
your head or something crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
It's gonna be an acme anvil.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Is that why the kid died in Final Destination? The
one that had the piano fall didn't have his real life.
That gone so stories old as time.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
They came out with this in two thousand and five.
We've talked about this a lot. They realized just after
four or five years, this was a huge mistake that
this really doesn't get you anywhere except for on base
a military base and fly on a plane. But we'll
make everyone stand in line and pay extra for a
not a fake ID, which is a driver's life.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
That's not a real ideas like, so I'm trying to
get right now. As a matter of fact, i just
want a regular driver's life.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
So they said, now TSA is like, well, all right,
there's a lot of people that are showing up with
just their driver's license. Right, So they're saying, we're going
to charge you more?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
We're just gonna charge you for I traveled eighteen bucks.
I guess you got to pull eighteen bucks out of
your pocket when you get to the TSA checkpoint.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Well okay, but listen to this. So then the government
sells things to circumvent these like for example, we're TSA
pre check. Yeah, so we pay the extra whatever it
is for two years or whatever whatever it's worth it
for us.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Well, now they have global entry, and we're gonna do
that as well, right because the only place we vacation
is Mexico, So what makes sense for us? But my
point is we somewhat circumvent customs coming back by going
through this global entest. Yeah, but it's just it's a
turn bucks. It's probably more than that a piece.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
They have a new lane. Did you see that at
the airport. It's like a little Star or whatever. It's
like a little I can't remember. Oh God, I downloaded
the app and I said, oh I want that. It
gets you supposed to get you on faster than pre check.
It's like Lightning Lane and Disney World it's way too expensive.
Probably correct. So I got on it and said, oh, I'll
sign up for that. Clear is what it's called. It's
(12:01):
called clear There there it is. There's the app. And
I went through the whole process, put my name in,
YadA YadA, da da da two hundred and eighty dollars.
And I was like, no, I don't travel enough.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I don't do it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
My wife is going to do it because she she
flies out every week, so she's going to do it.
But I was like, no, I don't fly that much.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
I'm doing it.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
I'm clear is the name of it. I think we
have Bill Bell coming in.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
We do have Bill Bell coming in. He's actually gonna
be playing in the years.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Okay, he might help us.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I think right now though the fire no, let me
tell you, Laby, laby, laby.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
No, No, it's dumped, thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I think we have Bill Bell coming in. Yes, I
think I think Bill bells coming in too. I don't
thank God for that.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Likely what I said was a woman's body.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
No, listen, We've done that. I don't listen. I've got
two days until I take a vacation again. Again. I
don't want to be in a meeting I want to
get out of the show and I want to go
hop in my Craig and Landreth Jeep Wrangler. Baby. Listen.
In twenty nineteen, I wanted a Jeep Wrangler, and I

Jeep Wrangler, had that new car look, the new car smell,
even had that coveted factory new car warranty. What it
didn't have was thousands and thousands of dollars of depreciation. Folks,

get a pre owned car with Craig's Best Cars dot Com.

I've had to speed up these.

shoulder when he was at the union.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
And the whole time he's explained it to me. I

got mirrors.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You look good.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
You're saying right, Bill said, I got mirrors. What's up?
All right, So we're gonna play real in the years

you what. Still learning, Still learning, there's a lot to learn.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Well, you went from working for the governor to working

Speaker 5 (16:40):
Correct.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Okay, all right, so when.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Comes back, somebody's on a slippery slope down.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I know some people think that's a n upgrade.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Plumber supply, Babby, I love plumbers Supply. Get out and
check out their new showroom. I went by there a
couple of weeks ago. It's amazing. Are you in the
market for one of those gigantic rain showers. We'll go
out to the showroom on Bluegrass Parkway and turn it on.
Everything in this beautiful showroom it works. I'm telling you.
The sinks. They had a sink up there. Imagine this.
(17:12):
You're prepping chicken for the week, you're getting ready to cook.
You got all that bacteria on your hands. You don't
want to touch the faucet and cross contaminate it. Just
hit the side of it with your wrist and that
foss is gonna turn on everything at Plumber Supply in
this beautiful showroom works. I don't care if you have
new construction going on. Maybe you're just redoing the kitchen,
(17:33):
readoing the bathroom, or redoing the entire house. Get out
the Plumber Supply on Bluegrass Parkway. You're gonna love the
new showroom element Air.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
If you need to get you need to join the
element Air mad Comfort Clove. That means you go to
the front of the line if you have an issue
with any of your hvacs, so it'll be great. So

Back after this on news Radio eight forty whas.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
Seventy eight right on seventy five off today, Dude, did
I say seventy five that was your very first guest,
Your instinct is almost always correct.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
The first instinct you have got it.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
It's like a dog. The instinct is right.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Then so many things pull you in different directions.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
I'm a lot like a dog. I don't recognize people
until I'll smell a button.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
William, Oh that.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Is Bill Bell. Hey, Bill Bell, good to see you.
Sorry I didn't recognize you sitting there. Bill's your friend.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Bill Bell has been coming on with us for fifteen
years and he never well. I don't think we changed
you in any way. You stayed the same, consistently good.
But you used to be with the Kentucky Office Highway Safety,
and you brought somebody with that office. But you've moved
on to the city of Lieuiville. What is your new job?
Speaker 7 (18:57):
My friend a director of the DOT which is around
since only last December, and so Brad Franklin is now
basically me for highway safety.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Now, uh bad. We got a good looking guy, dude.
How you doing, Brad?
Speaker 5 (19:13):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Sara Harry filling those ballet shoes of Bill Bell's job.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
You guys do a fantastic job. We we we try
to remind people every single day, you know, slow down,
don't drive distracted and we're all we all break it.
We all break that rule every once in a while
and catch ourselves and put the phone down or speeding
just slowed down. And right now we have so much
construction going on. I've I grew up in Louisville. I've
(19:41):
never I've never had a time in my life to
where there's not a way you can go that you're
not going to run into construction. That's been a challenge, Yes,
it has.
Speaker 8 (19:49):
It's it's you know, especially coming into the holiday season
and with with all of the constructions is going on, obviously,
traffic is gonna double, sometimes triple, and so you know,
anything you can do to you know, slow down when
you're in that area because obviously there are people that
are working in those construction zones.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
You know, they they have families and they want to
get home at the end of the day.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
And by the way, there's cameras now yeah, yes, yeah,
but people get hurt more than you know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yes they do.
Speaker 8 (20:13):
And it's and it's we here at the Transportation Cabinet.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
We obviously because.
Speaker 8 (20:17):
A lot of those workers that are in those zones
are transportation employees, We hear about those and so you
know it's now with the with the addition of the
speed cameras that they have in those work zones, you know,
hopefully that's going to remind folks to phone, you know,
to slow down, pay attention more. There are people in
these these work zones right now. I mean, you know,
obviously with with your phone, make sure you don't have
(20:39):
your phone out, you know, eliminate your distractions, watch your speed,
make sure you always got your seat belt on.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
There was a campaign and ad campaign you Alsys had
Year's Back, and it was so effective for me because
it was the child. Yeah, the children of of Uh yes,
they're saying, my daddy is today, he's the one that
does this. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It was powerful, it was and really powerful, and I
think it puts a it puts a face to you know.
You can talk about numbers and you can talk about
well this person works there, this person works.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
But I think once.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
You you touch on a personal level, which I think
is what you have to do to people to reach
their hearts. And I think that that was a very
successful one with the child.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Let's talk holiday safety, speaking of families, but that's big week,
biggest travel's biggest travel week.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Uh yeah, people are already traveling right now. A lot
of people take Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday off and they're trying
to get to family and stuff. And so that means
the expressways are packed.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Yes, they are, they.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Are, and not that they're not always packed anymore. Yeah,
well you go sixty five South. I don't care what day.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
You are on.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, it's it's packed.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
It's more, you know, obviously more more folks are traveling.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
You know, you've got the college kids that are coming
home to be with family, and you have family, you know,
people that are traveling to go to family, family across
the state or in other states. So you know, you
just want to make sure, you know, every time you're
on that road, no matter how long the trip is
or how short the trip is, you know, make sure
you've got your seat belt on, you know, pay attention
to what's going on around you. Put that cell phone down.
(22:02):
You know, it's cell phones are everyday part of our
life now and they have been that way for a while,
and there it's very easy to get distracted by those
phones because it's become second nature to us.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Well, the phone. Also, the good side of that is
that it slowed me down because the thing knows when
I'm gonna pull into the Like if I go to
Indianapolis for We Grow Harry Indy, right, it will tell
me when I leave this parking lot, you're going to
pull into the parking lot at two o six, right,
And I will pull into the parking lot at two
oh six. So it's like, how does it know that?
So if I speed? Even if I speed, what am
(22:33):
I gaining three minutes? It's like Vegas four minutes out
of a two hour trip, right, Yeah, So that really
slowed me down. I was like, it doesn't make a
difference if I'm doing eighty five or seventy eight miles
an hour or sixty eight. Rights, you're gonna get there
around the same time. Plus, I love it because it
gets me off the like if there's a wreck, you know,
(22:53):
it'll update and it'll say get off right now, and
it'll take you back roads and get you back on
the Expressway. So it's a good thing.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Bill, Bill, you never beat that time, do you know?
It's always a no.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
I never beat the two o six. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (23:05):
So we're doing a lot of projects in Jefferson County
now and just outside of Jefferson County, I know, ky TC.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
He's doing the one in sixty four. Uh.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
We look at the end of those projects and it's
going to make the quality of life and traffic and
safer and more efficient. It's some people say it's a
lot which there is a lot of There are a
lot of projects, whether you've got Louisville Water, you've got
federal projects, state projects, and it's all coming together now.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Yeah. At the same time, yeah, it's it's close. But
that exchange where you're talking about the VA hospital, it's
always been a mess. It's been never not been a mess.
So I hope this all improves all of it. Because
the VA is going to have their own exit, right.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
I believe they're they're enhancing that exit. Yeah, and we're
we're meeting with them. We're What we want is better
communication and I think that's happening now. And we have
our communications director here at Kristen and so we're working
closely with KYTC and making sure we know what's happening
or what's coming down the pipe, right, because if we're
going to get some news, we want to get it
(24:12):
sooner than later. And as far as as safety goes,
I mean, Brad talked about buckle up, phone down, and
our seat belt usage in Jefferson County is really good.
It's been the best it's been in probably six years.
And statewide, I look at the state numbers as well
as Jefferson County, this could be the lowest fatality count
(24:34):
in probably twelve thirteen years. But we just need to
we need to keep up the diligence, and definitely when
you're downtown especially, I've seen some near misses down here.
People were looking at their phones, their speeding. There's a
lot of pedestrians, a lot of bicyclists, So we need
to be very digilent about paying attention when you're driving
(24:56):
and don't speed.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
It's just not worth it. Like you said, Tony, what
is it going to gain you a minute?
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Seriously, if you really speed, you'll gain three minutes on your.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Talking to These guys are great, But we got royalty
right here. Get over get over here?
Speaker 6 (25:11):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Yeah, Jean, Western Kentucky.

She's because she's got a Tierra God. I know you
like to on bill.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
What's your name?
Speaker 9 (25:37):
My name is Bella Franklin.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Bella Franklin. So you are Miss Western Kentucky Team.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yes, Bella? Were you named after the Vampire movie?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (25:47):
No, wasn't there a Bella in the Vampire movie? The
mom is looking at me going, I did not name
her after that? I love the sash and all that.
How did you win this contest?
Speaker 10 (25:58):
So it's a local title under the Miss America organization.
So in June I get to go compete at Miss
Kentucky's team. And so I was in the local pageant
and we did an interview, We did a fitness portion,
a talent, and a gown.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Oh wow, talent? What was your talent?
Speaker 9 (26:13):
I did a dance to Great Balls of Fire?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Stop it?
Speaker 3 (26:15):
How do you even know what that song is?
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Yeah, Jerry, oh look at it. That's it in list dances.
Go throw your tiar off if you do it.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
I don't know, No, do not know. Don't do that.
That's a five thousand dollars TV behind her. So how
do you did you know this song before? Someone suggested
a dance to it?
Speaker 10 (26:35):
I think I did, but not as well as I
know it now I've run it a lot of times.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
What was Did they ask you questions like in the
interview session and all that? Were they hard? Do you
have good answers?
Speaker 9 (26:47):
It depends.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
So a lot of the time they ask us questions
off of our paperwork, but also sometimes I'll ask us
some current event questions or even ask us some fun
questions too, about you know what, what's our favorite holiday?
And what's a color two?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
So that's it's a true.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Is it true that Miss Eastern Kentucky showed up with
a two liters mountain? Do it think of mentos? And
that was her talent? She made the mountain, discared up
with the mentos?
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Maybe if it was, I wasn't there for video.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Hey miss Eastern could show knife? Yeah, man, you gotta
be careful.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
So what do you want to be?
Speaker 10 (27:17):
I want to be a veterinary when i'm older, But
right now I'm working for Miss Kentucky's team.
Speaker 9 (27:22):
Hopefully that's coming soon.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
How old are you?
Speaker 9 (27:24):
I'm fifteen?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Fifteen?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Let me ask you this. Oh my god, you start
driving at fifteen? You got your permit yet?
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Yes? I got it back in June, I congratulate you
because most fifteen year olds stare at their shoes and
don't have anything to say. This has been good for you,
like going through this process and to be able to
be challenged like this.
Speaker 9 (27:45):
Yes, definitely. So. I actually have a platform within the
Miss America organization. Ah you do, called buckle Up with
Bellow or oh really, yes.
Speaker 10 (27:53):
I educate younger people about the importance of seat belts
and limiting distracted driving and putting their phones down, and
especially with the new hospital fifteen coming out where fifteen
year olds can drive, that especially has helped to.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
You understand that's kind of scary fifteen year old drive.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
You understand you're now starting to drive, so and you're
the spokesperson for it. If you get a ticket, that's
not gonna look good. Okay, okay, what kind of car
you think you're gonna get?
Speaker 9 (28:22):
I actually have a car already. Oh boy, yes, I
love it. It's an Audi. It's my favorite thing ever.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Oh boy, it is a convertible, don't you.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You're you're a brand new drivers. You're bright, driving slowly
with people, yell hey, get out of my way.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
I think you are the driver so far.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
What do you think you need work on when you're driving.
What do you not do well in driving?
Speaker 10 (28:43):
Definitely paying attention to other people around me. You know,
I pay attention most of the time, but sometimes there's
there's some crazy people on the roads.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Parallel park. No, she nailed it. It's not about you.
You gotta watch out for the other knuckleheads that aren't
watching out for you. Do you understand a roundabout?
Speaker 10 (28:59):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
I do, okay, because there's more of those.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I'm still working on that.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I know you are. It's just like the third listen third.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
My wife called me over today. She said, you left
the store forty five minutes, so why are you I'm
damn round about just going in a circle.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I was. I'm like the third Tourney's like, well, what
did you just say? Left? Just left?
Speaker 1 (29:20):
She had you come in there and get me out
of it. Okay, So listen, best of luck to you
while you're driving. What are the next steps from Miss
Western Kentucky Teen? Where you go from here?
Speaker 10 (29:30):
So, like I said, I'm competing in June at Miss
Kentucky's teen, and then if I have the chance to
win Miss Kentucky's team, I get to compete at Miss
America's teen in September.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Wow. So are you good friends with these people or
is it pretty caddy?
Speaker 9 (29:42):
Yes, it's really fun.
Speaker 10 (29:43):
The main point of the Miss America Crown is sisterhood,
and they truly are like my sisters. I have an
older brother and I don't have a sister, and so
coming into this organization at fourteen years old, where there's
twenty five year olds competing in this Wow competition as well,
was amazing. They're like my older sisters. There's so much fun.
I come go into a room and I haven't seen
them in like six months, and I'm like, hey, Bella,
how are you?
Speaker 9 (30:04):
The run up and give me a big hug, and
it's it's so great.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
If we could just get you to come out of
your show.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Can I just say, cannot bottle a little of your
bubbly I just I want to listen.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I normally don't do this, but here's a page of
some of my jokes.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
No, don't do any of those jokes. Don't use any
any of those.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
You got to be pretty proud of you.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
You got to be pretty proud of that. I am, Yeah,
you're doing it fifteen. They're chief, Oh gosh, are you wrestling.
What were you doing?
Speaker 8 (30:27):
No, I was probably playing baseball on a field somewhere.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
You're at the mall.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
Yeah, hey, I mean I wasn't driving obviously at that right.
No clue where I was going in my life.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
She's impressive, Mom and Dad, great job, Thank you, really impressive.
Oh it's it all you, mom said.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's all you kidding me.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Yeah, I'm just like the chauffeur. That's all I am
at times.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
But it could be nerve racking. I guarantee these contests
are nerve racking during the performances and the answers and
all that. It could be crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Probably it is.
Speaker 8 (30:57):
It is, But and to be honest with you, that's
pretty nerve wracking. But she's pretty good at it. But
what I'm actually more nervous when I'm in the car
with her, even though she's a pretty good driver. But
it's like I said, like she said before, it's watching
the other folks around you that are driving, that are
not paying attention to what they're doing. That's a little
bit more nerve wracking to me than seeing her walk
across the stage in front of a room full of
(31:18):
people and doing her things.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
How many times when she's driving and you're in the
passenger seat. Have you applied the imaginary break?
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Probably at least once or twice long to drive.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
She said that the girls are awesome, that she hangs
out with pageant moms. Are they he run ins with mom?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Mom's over there going, no comments, just for a second.
So our pageant moms as like dads at little league games.
We're going up against the Yeah.
Speaker 8 (31:48):
Wow, it's competitive. I mean, it's a whole different world.
It's very competitive and it.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Yeah, don't drink anything before a performance that's handed to
you from one of your opponents. Moms, that's all I'm saying.
That's all I'm saying. Good on you. She's amazing. She's amazing.
And Bill Bell, we love you.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
You know.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Yes, you're welcome here anytime.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Thanks.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
And just one last thing. You know, we got holidays
coming up. Let's make sure we get to our destinations.
Doesn't matter if you're a little late, but your family
wants you there, whether you're on time or fifteen minutes late.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Just be safe.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Yeah, sometimes you have to have a cocktail or two
to get through the family get together, but don't get
in the car afterwards.
