Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back News Radio eight forty WHN. We are brought
to you by the Kentucky Office of high Way Safety.
Please buckle up, put the phone down, pay attention. It's
part of our Summer Safe Driving series, which we've done
for about fifteen years now, and it's so important because
a lot of this stuff, especially the DUIs driving under
(00:21):
the influence, is preventable, So please make plans before you
go out. Apparently you're not the only psycho pet owner. Well,
we'll say about that majority of penns loving or helicopter weirdows.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
John, where would your category? Ask me? A psycho or
loving dad?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I think you can be both, which is weird.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yes, majority of ped owners admit they're dogs call the shots.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
If you follow me on social media, you'll see that
I always lay on the ground. Lemmy has the couch
and the wife has the easy chair.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And I want it.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Usually this is a conversation or a joke made with families.
We have a lovely family that lives next door and
they have three kids, and the middle one is a girl.
She's about four, and it's again it's a big family.
It's five of them, and she's like, oh no, the
four year old run runs the house. But when it
comes to dog owners now, because some couples have decided
just to have a dog instead of a child, the
(01:28):
average dog owner makes twenty seven decisions a month based
only on their pets.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Okay, and yeah, I am a weirdo. But as soon
as we leave to go out to eat or whatever,
the clock starts in my head.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Is he okay? Is he bored?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Is he sad? Is he bored?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
And so for example, to the point now the in laws, no,
under no circumstances, even if we're going to Barno's Jaytown
five minutes up the road, I'm gonna drive separate because
I don't want to be I'm never riding with anybody
else because I want the ability to leave and go.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Let let me out.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And he thinks he's low maintenance.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
But listen, I am a maintenance. I'm not asking listen,
hear me out on this. I'm not asking them.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
He thinks he's low maintenance.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
This is like alcoholism.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
You know, you can't admit that he's the first step
is saying yes, I'm high maintenance.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
I'm not going to miss so that it's not true
like in this, in this particular situation.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
You have to drive separately because you have anxiety about
your dog.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
But how is that high maintenance on you?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Here's oh my gosh, here's what hamily. Can't drive together
and you do something like dinner.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Do we get to dinner at the same time? Yes?
Do we eat dinner at the same time? Yes.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
If I say, hey, I really need to get home now,
can you all stop having your drinks and take me home? Now,
that's that's being wow, that's being high maintenance.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
If I say, hey, it's been a great time I've
been here here, you know what you are in Egypt?
Let me bottom you're a river in Egypt? Buddy? What
does that mean?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You're in denial?
Speaker 3 (03:05):
That's a good one. That's two dollars out.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
I always thought it was denial. Ain't just a city
in Cairo?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Well, it's a joke. Is that you you're teasing here?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Here's what I want.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
You don't want to make the world perfect for me,
as if with every invitation of let's go out to dinner,
they told me what the expectation of time was. For example,
oh gosh, hey, we're gonna go have drinks and some pizza.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We would like you to sit at the table.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
With us for an hour and forty five minutes, and
I could say, you know, yeah, I could do an
hour forty five and.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Then we get there. And then when it comes to.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Me and he's asking give me an exact timeframe of
how long this is gonna take, and he thinks he's
low maintenance.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
We I'm gonna say, give me your what are your expectations?
I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Oh, I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I am well, because I'm gonna get upset if this
goes too long.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm just so maintenance. That's what he thinks.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm just saying, what are your time expectations? And I
will I will meet that requirement, or I will say,
you know what, it might be best if I just
stay home.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Because is this because Lemmy is such a high maintenance
dog or is it just because you're a psychown?
Speaker 4 (04:18):
No, No, that's not necessarily Limmy. That's just my attentions. Man,
you know I remember, Okay, this all goes back to
me being a kid and my mother and father are
taking me to Danners with a bunch of their friends.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
And we ate and then they had coffee. Clean Clank
clinking the coffee with their spoon, clink clean.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Then they had another cup, had another cup, and I
thought to myself, you know what, one day I'm gonna
be able to drive.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
He's thinking that while he's eating food off the floor
under the table.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
What's what? But look, let me tell you the second game.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah, go ahead, which is exactly what you've been talking about.
This includes canceling social plans four times a month because
their dog can't go, or cutting plan in short six
times a month because their dog's not there.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's right, are not even participating?
Speaker 3 (05:08):
That's a lot of plan canceling.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Well, no use, don't megan them begin with. At some
point you go, you know what, like to see this?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
This makes sense because people are taking their dogs more places.
The more place I go, the more places I go.
And they're not service dogs, they're just people have their
dogs with them. This is happening more. A lot of
times it's the ones they can carry, but the but
the mid size too larger ones. You see them more?
Do you not out and about?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah you do.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yeah, but a lot of loads are amazon vest I
just don't think he should be there by himself. A
lot of those aren't really legitimate service dogs. Some of
them are, some of them aren't. Some people just get
him off a vest On Amazon. Yeah, but I could
not do that with Limmy because he's a Texas Tornado.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
It was never by It.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Is putting a fake service dog blanket identification on your
dog equal to parting in a handicap spot.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Yes, I think so, absolutely no, no, no, no parking in
a handicap That's that's about the lowest of the low
If you don't have a placard and you packed there,
that's the lowest of the low.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Again, I got nothing against dogs, but I do know
that at the office decade ago, John one person brought
their dogs to work every single day. So then the
next person was like, well, if they get to do it,
then I'm going to. So the second dog showed up,
and then the third person was like, well, if they
get to bring their dog, we're going to bring So
at one point there were four or five offices with
(06:36):
dogs in them, and they were wandering around and there
and there was They would leave little trails where they
were yes, say, oh, well I guess somebody was here
a minute ago. And they actually had to send an
email out after a while and said you cannot bring
your dog to work all day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
There was one couple that had a little white dog.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
You can't say white, privileged.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Oh sorry, sorry dog.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
They had this little I don't know what type of
dog is. We're not gonna name the names. Ron and
mel and like me and Susan as their baby. And
they just take this beautiful little white dog out to
get groomed. Yeah, okay, washed, dried, cut, perfumed, pinky toes,
(07:23):
the bows, the whole bit.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
There's three types of dog people.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
There's the people that see somebody walking on the dog
not really in the dogs passes by. Then there's the
other second dog person. Then it'll see a dog and go,
oh my gosh, cute dog. May I pet them? Yeah,
what a great dog, and walk on. Then there's the
third type of dog person like me that sees a
dog and.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Goes in, wants to be best friends, goes in gun
just met. We just met, but I think we're best
friends right now.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I go in guns blazing, whoa look at you and
want to kiss.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
The faces A million times, they just bring this beautiful
fluffy white dog back from the groom, or they walk
in the office I see I go look at it,
gets scared, and it duties itself all over them.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
They were so angry at me.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Do you know the term dinks? Dinks like dual income,
no kids.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Oh, I'm a dink.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
So now there is a term. Seventy one percent of
these people are dink ones or what people with double income,
no kids and a dog. And they all admit, seventy
one percent of them admit their life revolves around their pet.
(08:41):
Should we judge them or not?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I don't think you should judge them in what way I.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Mean we're doing to judge them.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
The dog is taking the place of the kid, correct,
And so if here's the way I would judge them
is if you're somebody who thinks that having a dog
is the same thing as having a kid, that's not
the case.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
No, it's harder. You're right.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
They well, they built an entire Thank you, John, they
built it. They built an entire campaign around it with
dog food. You know the commercial where the person goes
to the refrigerator and opens it and they're on a
first date or some guy came over to watch the
game and the guy and the person always goes, what's this?
And the dog owner goes, oh, that's so and So's food.
(09:22):
That's the yadayada in the name of the brand, and
the person goes okay, and then they kicked that person out, Yeah,
for judging the expensive dog food that's in a sealed
pouch you have to keep in the refrigerator.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
And they put their names on the dog, the name
of the dog on that sealed pouch.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Mind you, the dog needs somebody else that you know,
eat its own poop. But you're gonna buy it an
eight dollar dog cookie? Yes, have you ever tried said
eight dollar dog cookie?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
You watched me eat a doggie down or brownie from
Feeder's Pet Supply when Tracy Dawkin came in here in a.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
That's true, it's got a doggy downer. That's not what
it was called it was. It was it was four
before chill. It costs.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
It was just a doggy C B D brownie and
it calms them for thunderstorms.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
So it did not taste good. But I hate it.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I say, the cookies they have it feed or supply
do look good.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
They look good, but I bet you if you buy
it not well, but nobody likes, you know, a squirrel
flavored cookie.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
That'd be a good prank, though, get a whole bunch
of cookies and.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Giving that idea.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
What are the foods that dogs can't eat?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
They can't eat, You can't eat avocado, not supposed to
have onion, not supposed to have chocolate.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But okay, chocolate is the first one I would get to.
That would be a typical but rapes or one of them.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
But the more dangerous the chocolate, the better the chocolate,
the more dangerous it is. Meaning if I had, like,
you know, just a regular candy bar, it's bad for him.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
But if premium.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Chocolate is even worse, Really, buddy that like melk, it's
gonna hurt.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
You might hurt the stomach.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
My my buddy would he'd go to Burger King or whatever,
and he'd get, you know, two burgers and fries. He
would feed the dog the burger and fries, and then
he would eat the birds.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
A waste of money.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Yeah, let me does not get people food. The only
thing that he gets people food wise is once a week,
I'll smoke a Weatherbe's Island salmon, and I'll put the
strips of skin from the back and give those.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Well once, you know, they say once bears taste human blood,
they cannot focus on berries and the like anymore. Has
let me tasted human blood before?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Multiple times? You kidding me?
Speaker 4 (11:41):
He just lit up Susan over the weekend, almost tore
a thumb off.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
You know.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
My first question was what did you do to provoke him?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
And is he okay?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
You're like at JCPS superintendent, what did you do to
provoke the child? Our first show when he got Lenny back,
was a host Derby. Our job was to get everybody
home from Derby, so we did traffic every five minutes.
We talked about what's backed up? Call us if you're
in a parking garage or somewhere, we'll get you out.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
So we did that show.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's the first weekend Dwight had Lemmy and he had
him tied around his wrist and literally the entire show
he was ripping his shoulder is out of his socket for.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
An entire hour.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
He was biting me and shaking me the entire hour.
It was the most uncomfortable broadcast ever.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I would pot the mic down and go, at what
point do you think this is appropriate? He goes, I
can There's no way at home.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
I can't leave him at home. I can't leave it
at home. We're in the studio. He's chewing through the wall.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
He's my sweet baby boy.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
So with three quarters of people are dink onodes, which
are double income, no kids and a dog. They cancel
social plans up to four times a month or cut
it short because their dog's not there six times a month,
and the average dog owner makes twenty seven decisions a
month based solely on their pet. Well, we start decisions
(13:07):
in their life, and not like I made a decision
to buy food. It is they made twenty seven decisions
a month in their life because of the dog.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Well, you know this to be true, John will soon
whenever we leave and go on vacation, there's four different
people that rotate to watch Limmy. That way, he's there's
someone in my house twenty four hours a day to
make sure if that dog needs anything, he's got it.
But it's worth it to me. If I didn't have that,
(13:36):
I wouldn't have peace of mound on vacation.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
But life, you know, in a couple of years, he's
not gonna Lemmy. He's not gonna live forever.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
Oh that's where okay, that's where you fall shure of
the truth. Mister, listen to they don't have a live
forever machine. I found a live forever machine on the internet.
I pick up the phone, I call the guy. As
luck would have it, this live forever machine costs the
exact same amount of money I have in my four one.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
K oh perfect. What are the odds?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Right? So it's meant to be, but your life will
be simpler.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, no, I've just asked. It's a high.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I've known people that have had humans that they love dearly,
but towards the end of a disease or or what's
going on, They're like, look, I love him, but I
love her, but it was it was for the it
was better for all of us at that end.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Susan's already telling that to me, to my doctor. Look,
maybe we just need to put him down.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
You're talking about you. Yeah, not the dog.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
No, not the dog. You kidd me twice.

News Radio eight forty whas did uh did you.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Notice that that?
Speaker 4 (16:06):
On the Ozzy Osbourne Black Sabbath Back to the Beginning
farewell show, Steven Tyler came out. It sounded fantastic. I thought,
I thought, uh.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
And he didn't really get a proper farewell when Aerosmith
retired a little abruptly a year or so.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
That's oh, sure it is ero Smith. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
No, So they were supposed to do a farewell tour,
including having a show at the Young Center a couple
of years ago, and they canceled that entire thing due
to I guess some vocal Yeah, it.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Was last I think it was last year. He had
to throw in the towel because of vocal issues. But
they were trying to accommodate. Here's what they were doing.
They were trying to space out cities, for example, do
one city and then wait three nights, give him, you know, vocals.
And they tried to cut back that way. It didn't
work and he wound up having to retire. Back I
tell you, he sounded great.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Man Aerosmith, aeros Erosmith, if if he booked Cardinal Stadium,
could they sell it out?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Could he do it? If he limited to six?
Speaker 1 (17:05):
If he limited it to six stadium shows, could he
sell We'll see.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's what the Stones do now this past tour.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Okay, I'm not talking about the Stones. I want to
I know if Errol Smith could sell out Cardinal Stadium,
that's sixty thousand seats.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
If Aerosmith didn't do arena shows and they were doing
a limited amount correct of concerts for this like a
farewell to a hypothetical farewell tour, they would absolutely sell
every show.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
They would thank Yeah, if they had six shows, they
do it. Okay, I think that's what they should do.
Then you don't think they just retire and right off
in the sunset.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
It depends how much money they I just can't wait
to retire.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Maybe that little maybe his little performance at the back
to the beginning was like a little test run for
him there.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Maybe you know these guys cannot hang it up. I
find it shocking that you believe that they're they're going
to hand it up. I mean, ac DC can barely
hear speak and walk and they're still out there sounded
and one was up for murder charges when the drummer
up for Phil Rudd and Phil Rudd was trying to
kill someone or something family member. Look, they're still out
(18:09):
there trying to bang on that thing.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
So here's another thing about that.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Back to the beginning festival with Black Sabbath and Aussie
the Farewell Is Before the show, Sharon Osborne, in a
few interviews, said that she was she disinvited a certain
band not to come out and play because she was
aggravated because the band wanted to make a profit off
(18:32):
the performance get paid. And she says, it's not about that.
And if you're thinking, well, Ozzie and Black Sabbath get paid, No,
they were using the money for three different charities I
think within Birmingham.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
But she says she's gonna name names.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I heard it was Danzig.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
No, it could be, they said yesterday. It was definitely
not Iron Maiden. If I was a big band, I
would do the same.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
I mean, I understand you're doing it for charity or whatever,
but you know, I get it.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
The bands only played like four Songsick needs.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
To play for the charity and take the notoriety and
get the immediate.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Glenn Danz absolutely should have done that, but.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Especially when you look some of the caliber musicians that
went over there on their own dime.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yes, So what we decided was Dwight is a psycho
dog parent, which we knew, and he still believes he's
low maintenance.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I am low maintenance. I am low maintenance. And you
don't you hear that? What? Oh? I thought? I thought
I was whispering that. I know you would hear it.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
I am low maintenance. And you know what else is
low maintenance. Pella windows and doors, and they're gonna save

ESPN's being mocked online for the waying the Major League.

I'm in favor of that.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I'm into I am too, Are you really? Yeah? Back
in the seventies and eighties, not an old guy story.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
When facts are facts. The All Star Game, these players
wanted to win the game. They wanted to show that
their side of the league was better than the other,
and they really played hard for these games. Now, these
these people will make one hundred million dollars for four games.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
They're just like, eh, you Evidently the worldwide leader in
sports opted to stick with a cornhole tournament coverage for
around ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
That's when the mocking started. On X and other platforms.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Serious business.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I saw where the X Games is still a thing?
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Is it really? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
That's still I don't know if it's still on television,
but I saw some posts on it, and I was like,
they're still doing the X games.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
John, you're young and hip on these X games.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
Do they partner that with like, you know, concerts and stuff.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
They used to used to have some like the punk
rock bands and like Warped Tour and all that sort
of stuff with kind of partner with it, I believe.
I don't know if that's still the case anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Okay, I got to chase the scroll. You said punk
rock and blah blah blah, and they're not punk rock?
Speaker 3 (23:14):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Blink? But it just it just triggered what I was thinking.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
So I told you all a couple of weeks ago,
I watched a series. It was an episode called train Wreck.
It was about it was called train Wreck the Poop Boat,
and it was about that gigantic right yeah, yeah, yeah,
Gigantic cruise.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Yeah, where they lost powers.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
So every evidently this thing is a new series now
on Netflix. There's gonna be all kinds of different episodes someday.
I look, and there's one called train Wreck the Fire Festival. Yes,
so you remember the Fire Festival, you guys.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Yeah, it was a huge story and the guy went
to jail for it.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
So it's a documentary and it's it's got clips from
where they're building this out a whole bitness. It's incredibly interesting.
But they get all these supermodels to make it look like, hey,
it's gonna be the biggest.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
It's like two hundred and fifty thousand ticket, and so
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars some of the tickets.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
Some of the tickets, okay, yeah, yeah a lot. I
mean there was no low dollar ticket.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
I remember just videos of these little domes in the
and it rained all day.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Okay, they had no food. I want to get to that. Yeah,
so they don't know what they're doing. They don't know
who's playing.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
They they make an offer to Blink one eighty two
and they say, oh, I will play and Joe Rule.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I forgot who else. So it sells. It almost sells
out immediately on the first day. And they've got this.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Money because they use celebrities to go on like TikTok.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, so they take a picture of a Sandals resort
and then they photoshop the Sandals resort out of it
and make it look like it's an island.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Everything was a scam, and they said, this.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Is the island where you're gonna be.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Wasn't the island, it was just it was just somewhere
of the Bahamas, right, So on and on and on
they were selling. Then they come up with the idea, Hey,
you're gonna need to have an armband.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
We're not gonna accept cash, so.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Buy this armband, firefacet armband, and then you need to
preload your your money on it. Well, now the money
gets loaded on these armbands, just something astronomical, like in
the millions, all.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
These rich kids. So they have that money, Well, they've
got nothing for food.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Now they start selling villas, right, they sell hundreds of
villas that they don't even have like houses. Right, this
is your house that you're gonna be staying at. It's
all bs. Watch it for yourself. It goes, it gets
worse and worse and worse and worse. But it comes
to the point where they say, we've got to cancel this.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
On the first day, not all the flights have made
it in yet.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Did they suffer from sand fleas to I'm sure there will.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I did think could go wrong, would go wrong. Yeah,
So what happens is.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
The the Bahama government is not letting any of the
water or food through, and they say you got to go.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Down here and do this, Yes, and then you can
find out on your own, go through customs and all that, yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
And get it through. But at some point they just
cancel it. And now all these vendors and all these people,
the Bahama people that have been contracted, the contractors whoever,
they say, we're not gonna get paid.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
What do we do. So they say, here's what we'll do.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
We're gonna go and kidnap some of these festival organizers
and we'll get paid. We're gonna get paid through the ransom. Well,
one of the top dogs, he knows this stuff is
getting ready to go down. He changes clothes with some
poor sap just tearing down fences and that's where I stopped.
I still got about forty minutes to go on it.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Yeah, and then they remember they try to do the
fire festival too, and they canceled it before you even
got off the ground.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I know people were buying tickets.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't know crazy that that is a conversation, but
it was a lot of money. And it shows how
people can be suckers, and how people with a lot
of money or their parents have a lot of money,
it can be suckers. I mean, what kid goes home
and says, oh, yeah, I bought a little chalet thing
for this concert. It's whatever, half a million dollars. What Okay,
(27:28):
have fun? What?
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:31):
And by the way, I said, sand fleas or sand flies,
they eat you a lot. They eat you alive. So
people don't understand where you go into the wilderness. I
have friends that travel to Alaska and they go and
you know, they go way into Alaska. It's a forty
five minute play ride from the phone. And they're like,
you don't understand the mosquitos at night. You have to
(27:51):
be in full netting, and when they were drinking, they
would sit around the fire and drink bourbon. You would
have to lift your netting and drink a little bit
because there were millions of mosquitoes. We were going to
do a trip to the island right off. It was
a civil war fort at Tortiga.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
And I like taco bells, Tortigas and there.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
And the lady said, look, you don't want to do that.
They were like, there's no bathrooms, there's no water. It's
just an old fort on a little island in seventy
five miles south of Key West, they said. She said,
the sandflies alone, we eat you alive all night long.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Such a miserable experience.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
She said, don't do it. She goes, if you want to,
we'll get a boat to go out there. You can
spend the day out there, go swim in, do whatever
you want, and then go back to the boat that night.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
She goes, that's what you want to do.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
I always other sand fleas. I'm gonna look up sand fleas.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Or fleas if it fleas.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Because you can, and whenever you're on the beach, you
could those kind of they can replace bedbugs.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Oh are you serious? Yes, well, they chew on you, man.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
It is because I have watched a couple of those
the shows where everyone takes their clothes off and tries
to survive in the wilderness completely naked. But they have
like a naked in the free yeah, oh, naked in
a fray. And they have the they have like a satchel.
That's the only thing they have. Is like a man bag,
like a purse. That's the other thing they have. And
that that happens to them. The reason that the people
(29:15):
quit is because of the sand fleas.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
Okay, I'm confused. Their sand flies and their sand fleas.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Sand fleas are probably the ones that chew on you.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Uh what's the difference? What is and what does that
mean for your weekend? Find out after the news at eleven.
Let me tell you right now, Southern covered hot tub. Baby,

NewsRadio forty WHS
Welcome back News Radio eight forty WHN. We are brought
to you by the Kentucky Office of high Way Safety.
Please buckle up, put the phone down, pay attention. It's
part of our Summer Safe Driving series, which we've done
for about fifteen years now, and it's so important because
a lot of this stuff, especially the DUIs driving under
(00:21):
the influence, is preventable, So please make plans before you
go out. Apparently you're not the only psycho pet owner. Well,
we'll say about that majority of penns loving or helicopter weirdows.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
John, where would your category? Ask me? A psycho or
loving dad?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I think you can be both, which is weird.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yes, majority of ped owners admit they're dogs call the shots.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
If you follow me on social media, you'll see that
I always lay on the ground. Lemmy has the couch
and the wife has the easy chair.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And I want it.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Usually this is a conversation or a joke made with families.
We have a lovely family that lives next door and
they have three kids, and the middle one is a girl.
She's about four, and it's again it's a big family.
It's five of them, and she's like, oh no, the
four year old run runs the house. But when it
comes to dog owners now, because some couples have decided
just to have a dog instead of a child, the
(01:28):
average dog owner makes twenty seven decisions a month based
only on their pets.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Okay, and yeah, I am a weirdo. But as soon
as we leave to go out to eat or whatever,
the clock starts in my head.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Is he okay? Is he bored?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Is he sad? Is he bored?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
And so for example, to the point now the in laws, no,
under no circumstances, even if we're going to Barno's Jaytown
five minutes up the road, I'm gonna drive separate because
I don't want to be I'm never riding with anybody
else because I want the ability to leave and go.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Let let me out.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And he thinks he's low maintenance.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
But listen, I am a maintenance. I'm not asking listen,
hear me out on this. I'm not asking them.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
He thinks he's low maintenance.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
This is like alcoholism.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
You know, you can't admit that he's the first step
is saying yes, I'm high maintenance.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
I'm not going to miss so that it's not true
like in this, in this particular situation.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
You have to drive separately because you have anxiety about
your dog.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
But how is that high maintenance on you?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Here's oh my gosh, here's what hamily. Can't drive together
and you do something like dinner.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Do we get to dinner at the same time? Yes?
Do we eat dinner at the same time? Yes.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
If I say, hey, I really need to get home now,
can you all stop having your drinks and take me home? Now,
that's that's being wow, that's being high maintenance.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
If I say, hey, it's been a great time I've
been here here, you know what you are in Egypt?
Let me bottom you're a river in Egypt? Buddy? What
does that mean?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You're in denial?
Speaker 3 (03:05):
That's a good one. That's two dollars out.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
I always thought it was denial. Ain't just a city
in Cairo?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Well, it's a joke. Is that you you're teasing here?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Here's what I want.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
You don't want to make the world perfect for me,
as if with every invitation of let's go out to dinner,
they told me what the expectation of time was. For example,
oh gosh, hey, we're gonna go have drinks and some pizza.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We would like you to sit at the table.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
With us for an hour and forty five minutes, and
I could say, you know, yeah, I could do an
hour forty five and.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Then we get there. And then when it comes to.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Me and he's asking give me an exact timeframe of
how long this is gonna take, and he thinks he's
low maintenance.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
We I'm gonna say, give me your what are your expectations?
I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Oh, I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I am well, because I'm gonna get upset if this
goes too long.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm just so maintenance. That's what he thinks.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm just saying, what are your time expectations? And I
will I will meet that requirement, or I will say,
you know what, it might be best if I just
stay home.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Because is this because Lemmy is such a high maintenance
dog or is it just because you're a psychown?
Speaker 4 (04:18):
No, No, that's not necessarily Limmy. That's just my attentions. Man,
you know I remember, Okay, this all goes back to
me being a kid and my mother and father are
taking me to Danners with a bunch of their friends.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
And we ate and then they had coffee. Clean Clank
clinking the coffee with their spoon, clink clean.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Then they had another cup, had another cup, and I
thought to myself, you know what, one day I'm gonna
be able to drive.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
He's thinking that while he's eating food off the floor
under the table.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
What's what? But look, let me tell you the second game.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah, go ahead, which is exactly what you've been talking about.
This includes canceling social plans four times a month because
their dog can't go, or cutting plan in short six
times a month because their dog's not there.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's right, are not even participating?
Speaker 3 (05:08):
That's a lot of plan canceling.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Well, no use, don't megan them begin with. At some
point you go, you know what, like to see this?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
This makes sense because people are taking their dogs more places.
The more place I go, the more places I go.
And they're not service dogs, they're just people have their
dogs with them. This is happening more. A lot of
times it's the ones they can carry, but the but
the mid size too larger ones. You see them more?
Do you not out and about?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah you do.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yeah, but a lot of loads are amazon vest I
just don't think he should be there by himself. A
lot of those aren't really legitimate service dogs. Some of
them are, some of them aren't. Some people just get
him off a vest On Amazon. Yeah, but I could
not do that with Limmy because he's a Texas Tornado.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
It was never by It.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Is putting a fake service dog blanket identification on your
dog equal to parting in a handicap spot.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Yes, I think so, absolutely no, no, no, no parking in
a handicap That's that's about the lowest of the low
If you don't have a placard and you packed there,
that's the lowest of the low.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Again, I got nothing against dogs, but I do know
that at the office decade ago, John one person brought
their dogs to work every single day. So then the
next person was like, well, if they get to do it,
then I'm going to. So the second dog showed up,
and then the third person was like, well, if they
get to bring their dog, we're going to bring So
at one point there were four or five offices with
(06:36):
dogs in them, and they were wandering around and there
and there was They would leave little trails where they
were yes, say, oh, well I guess somebody was here
a minute ago. And they actually had to send an
email out after a while and said you cannot bring
your dog to work all day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
There was one couple that had a little white dog.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
You can't say white, privileged.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Oh sorry, sorry dog.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
They had this little I don't know what type of
dog is. We're not gonna name the names. Ron and
mel and like me and Susan as their baby. And
they just take this beautiful little white dog out to
get groomed. Yeah, okay, washed, dried, cut, perfumed, pinky toes,
(07:23):
the bows, the whole bit.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
There's three types of dog people.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
There's the people that see somebody walking on the dog
not really in the dogs passes by. Then there's the
other second dog person. Then it'll see a dog and go,
oh my gosh, cute dog. May I pet them? Yeah,
what a great dog, and walk on. Then there's the
third type of dog person like me that sees a
dog and.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Goes in, wants to be best friends, goes in gun
just met. We just met, but I think we're best
friends right now.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I go in guns blazing, whoa look at you and
want to kiss.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
The faces A million times, they just bring this beautiful
fluffy white dog back from the groom, or they walk
in the office I see I go look at it,
gets scared, and it duties itself all over them.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
They were so angry at me.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Do you know the term dinks? Dinks like dual income,
no kids.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Oh, I'm a dink.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
So now there is a term. Seventy one percent of
these people are dink ones or what people with double income,
no kids and a dog. And they all admit, seventy
one percent of them admit their life revolves around their pet.
(08:41):
Should we judge them or not?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I don't think you should judge them in what way I.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Mean we're doing to judge them.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
The dog is taking the place of the kid, correct,
And so if here's the way I would judge them
is if you're somebody who thinks that having a dog
is the same thing as having a kid, that's not
the case.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
No, it's harder. You're right.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
They well, they built an entire Thank you, John, they
built it. They built an entire campaign around it with
dog food. You know the commercial where the person goes
to the refrigerator and opens it and they're on a
first date or some guy came over to watch the
game and the guy and the person always goes, what's this?
And the dog owner goes, oh, that's so and So's food.
(09:22):
That's the yadayada in the name of the brand, and
the person goes okay, and then they kicked that person out, Yeah,
for judging the expensive dog food that's in a sealed
pouch you have to keep in the refrigerator.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
And they put their names on the dog, the name
of the dog on that sealed pouch.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Mind you, the dog needs somebody else that you know,
eat its own poop. But you're gonna buy it an
eight dollar dog cookie? Yes, have you ever tried said
eight dollar dog cookie?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
You watched me eat a doggie down or brownie from
Feeder's Pet Supply when Tracy Dawkin came in here in a.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
That's true, it's got a doggy downer. That's not what
it was called it was. It was it was four
before chill. It costs.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
It was just a doggy C B D brownie and
it calms them for thunderstorms.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
So it did not taste good. But I hate it.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I say, the cookies they have it feed or supply
do look good.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
They look good, but I bet you if you buy
it not well, but nobody likes, you know, a squirrel
flavored cookie.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
That'd be a good prank, though, get a whole bunch
of cookies and.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Giving that idea.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
What are the foods that dogs can't eat?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
They can't eat, You can't eat avocado, not supposed to
have onion, not supposed to have chocolate.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But okay, chocolate is the first one I would get to.
That would be a typical but rapes or one of them.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
But the more dangerous the chocolate, the better the chocolate,
the more dangerous it is. Meaning if I had, like,
you know, just a regular candy bar, it's bad for him.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
But if premium.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Chocolate is even worse, Really, buddy that like melk, it's
gonna hurt.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
You might hurt the stomach.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
My my buddy would he'd go to Burger King or whatever,
and he'd get, you know, two burgers and fries. He
would feed the dog the burger and fries, and then
he would eat the birds.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
A waste of money.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Yeah, let me does not get people food. The only
thing that he gets people food wise is once a week,
I'll smoke a Weatherbe's Island salmon, and I'll put the
strips of skin from the back and give those.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Well once, you know, they say once bears taste human blood,
they cannot focus on berries and the like anymore. Has
let me tasted human blood before?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Multiple times? You kidding me?
Speaker 4 (11:41):
He just lit up Susan over the weekend, almost tore
a thumb off.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
You know.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
My first question was what did you do to provoke him?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
And is he okay?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
You're like at JCPS superintendent, what did you do to
provoke the child? Our first show when he got Lenny back,
was a host Derby. Our job was to get everybody
home from Derby, so we did traffic every five minutes.
We talked about what's backed up? Call us if you're
in a parking garage or somewhere, we'll get you out.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
So we did that show.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's the first weekend Dwight had Lemmy and he had
him tied around his wrist and literally the entire show
he was ripping his shoulder is out of his socket for.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
An entire hour.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
He was biting me and shaking me the entire hour.
It was the most uncomfortable broadcast ever.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I would pot the mic down and go, at what
point do you think this is appropriate? He goes, I
can There's no way at home.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
I can't leave him at home. I can't leave it
at home. We're in the studio. He's chewing through the wall.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
He's my sweet baby boy.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
So with three quarters of people are dink onodes, which
are double income, no kids and a dog. They cancel
social plans up to four times a month or cut
it short because their dog's not there six times a month,
and the average dog owner makes twenty seven decisions a
month based solely on their pet. Well, we start decisions
(13:07):
in their life, and not like I made a decision
to buy food. It is they made twenty seven decisions
a month in their life because of the dog.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Well, you know this to be true, John will soon
whenever we leave and go on vacation, there's four different
people that rotate to watch Limmy. That way, he's there's
someone in my house twenty four hours a day to
make sure if that dog needs anything, he's got it.
But it's worth it to me. If I didn't have that,
(13:36):
I wouldn't have peace of mound on vacation.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
But life, you know, in a couple of years, he's
not gonna Lemmy. He's not gonna live forever.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
Oh that's where okay, that's where you fall shure of
the truth. Mister, listen to they don't have a live
forever machine. I found a live forever machine on the internet.
I pick up the phone, I call the guy. As
luck would have it, this live forever machine costs the
exact same amount of money I have in my four one.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
K oh perfect. What are the odds?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Right? So it's meant to be, but your life will
be simpler.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, no, I've just asked. It's a high.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I've known people that have had humans that they love dearly,
but towards the end of a disease or or what's
going on, They're like, look, I love him, but I
love her, but it was it was for the it
was better for all of us at that end.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Susan's already telling that to me, to my doctor. Look,
maybe we just need to put him down.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
You're talking about you. Yeah, not the dog.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
No, not the dog. You kidd me twice.
Speaker 1 (14:38):

News Radio eight forty whas did uh did you.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Notice that that?
Speaker 4 (16:06):
On the Ozzy Osbourne Black Sabbath Back to the Beginning
farewell show, Steven Tyler came out. It sounded fantastic. I thought,
I thought, uh.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
And he didn't really get a proper farewell when Aerosmith
retired a little abruptly a year or so.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
That's oh, sure it is ero Smith. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
No, So they were supposed to do a farewell tour,
including having a show at the Young Center a couple
of years ago, and they canceled that entire thing due
to I guess some vocal Yeah, it.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Was last I think it was last year. He had
to throw in the towel because of vocal issues. But
they were trying to accommodate. Here's what they were doing.
They were trying to space out cities, for example, do
one city and then wait three nights, give him, you know, vocals.
And they tried to cut back that way. It didn't
work and he wound up having to retire. Back I
tell you, he sounded great.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Man Aerosmith, aeros Erosmith, if if he booked Cardinal Stadium,
could they sell it out?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Could he do it? If he limited to six?
Speaker 1 (17:05):
If he limited it to six stadium shows, could he
sell We'll see.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's what the Stones do now this past tour.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Okay, I'm not talking about the Stones. I want to
I know if Errol Smith could sell out Cardinal Stadium,
that's sixty thousand seats.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
If Aerosmith didn't do arena shows and they were doing
a limited amount correct of concerts for this like a
farewell to a hypothetical farewell tour, they would absolutely sell
every show.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
They would thank Yeah, if they had six shows, they
do it. Okay, I think that's what they should do.
Then you don't think they just retire and right off
in the sunset.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
It depends how much money they I just can't wait
to retire.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Maybe that little maybe his little performance at the back
to the beginning was like a little test run for
him there.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Maybe you know these guys cannot hang it up. I
find it shocking that you believe that they're they're going
to hand it up. I mean, ac DC can barely
hear speak and walk and they're still out there sounded
and one was up for murder charges when the drummer
up for Phil Rudd and Phil Rudd was trying to
kill someone or something family member. Look, they're still out
(18:09):
there trying to bang on that thing.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
So here's another thing about that.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Back to the beginning festival with Black Sabbath and Aussie
the Farewell Is Before the show, Sharon Osborne, in a
few interviews, said that she was she disinvited a certain
band not to come out and play because she was
aggravated because the band wanted to make a profit off
(18:32):
the performance get paid. And she says, it's not about that.
And if you're thinking, well, Ozzie and Black Sabbath get paid, No,
they were using the money for three different charities I
think within Birmingham.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
But she says she's gonna name names.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I heard it was Danzig.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
No, it could be, they said yesterday. It was definitely
not Iron Maiden. If I was a big band, I
would do the same.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
I mean, I understand you're doing it for charity or whatever,
but you know, I get it.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
The bands only played like four Songsick needs.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
To play for the charity and take the notoriety and
get the immediate.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Glenn Danz absolutely should have done that, but.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Especially when you look some of the caliber musicians that
went over there on their own dime.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yes, So what we decided was Dwight is a psycho
dog parent, which we knew, and he still believes he's
low maintenance.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I am low maintenance. I am low maintenance. And you
don't you hear that? What? Oh? I thought? I thought
I was whispering that. I know you would hear it.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
I am low maintenance. And you know what else is
low maintenance. Pella windows and doors, and they're gonna save
that enters you bill baby, Let's call, let's call, Let's
call right now, because you can Pella now and you
could pay later. Pella windows indoors.
Speaker 3 (19:44):

Speaker 1 (20:12):
Vision First, I watched Top Gun again this weekend because
of Fortuly weekend. So now I'm going to go in
and get the ray band. But they're my prescription glasses
in the ray band aviators because I'm cool like that, dude,
and I can get it from Vision First.

like the old school ones.

It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:57):

towards in the back of your skull. Is crazy because
they want to look and make sure your eye is

to ohero for the week it was nineteen seventy yesterday.
Let's find out what's going to be this week or today?
On news radio eight forty whas Yes, rock Beat Scissors
(21:47):
and ninety nine beats not.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Oh what about the farm on ninety eight? Wow, Way
to go, John Alden, Way to go, Tony Vanetti. Well,
ESPN's being mocked online for the waying the Major League.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
All Star Show for a cornhole tournament.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
I'm in favor of that.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I'm into I am too, Are you really? Yeah? Back
in the seventies and eighties, not an old guy story.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
When facts are facts. The All Star Game, these players
wanted to win the game. They wanted to show that
their side of the league was better than the other,
and they really played hard for these games. Now, these
these people will make one hundred million dollars for four games.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
They're just like, eh, you Evidently the worldwide leader in
sports opted to stick with a cornhole tournament coverage for
around ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
That's when the mocking started. On X and other platforms.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Serious business.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I saw where the X Games is still a thing?
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Is it really? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
That's still I don't know if it's still on television,
but I saw some posts on it, and I was like,
they're still doing the X games.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
John, you're young and hip on these X games.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
Do they partner that with like, you know, concerts and stuff.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
They used to used to have some like the punk
rock bands and like Warped Tour and all that sort
of stuff with kind of partner with it, I believe.
I don't know if that's still the case anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Okay, I got to chase the scroll. You said punk
rock and blah blah blah, and they're not punk rock?
Speaker 3 (23:14):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Blink? But it just it just triggered what I was thinking.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
So I told you all a couple of weeks ago,
I watched a series. It was an episode called train Wreck.
It was about it was called train Wreck the Poop Boat,
and it was about that gigantic right yeah, yeah, yeah,
Gigantic cruise.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Yeah, where they lost powers.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
So every evidently this thing is a new series now
on Netflix. There's gonna be all kinds of different episodes someday.
I look, and there's one called train Wreck the Fire Festival. Yes,
so you remember the Fire Festival, you guys.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Yeah, it was a huge story and the guy went
to jail for it.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
So it's a documentary and it's it's got clips from
where they're building this out a whole bitness. It's incredibly interesting.
But they get all these supermodels to make it look like, hey,
it's gonna be the biggest.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
It's like two hundred and fifty thousand ticket, and so
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars some of the tickets.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
Some of the tickets, okay, yeah, yeah a lot. I
mean there was no low dollar ticket.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
I remember just videos of these little domes in the
and it rained all day.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Okay, they had no food. I want to get to that. Yeah,
so they don't know what they're doing. They don't know
who's playing.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
They they make an offer to Blink one eighty two
and they say, oh, I will play and Joe Rule.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I forgot who else. So it sells. It almost sells
out immediately on the first day. And they've got this.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Money because they use celebrities to go on like TikTok.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, so they take a picture of a Sandals resort
and then they photoshop the Sandals resort out of it
and make it look like it's an island.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Everything was a scam, and they said, this.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Is the island where you're gonna be.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Wasn't the island, it was just it was just somewhere
of the Bahamas, right, So on and on and on
they were selling. Then they come up with the idea, Hey,
you're gonna need to have an armband.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
We're not gonna accept cash, so.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Buy this armband, firefacet armband, and then you need to
preload your your money on it. Well, now the money
gets loaded on these armbands, just something astronomical, like in
the millions, all.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
These rich kids. So they have that money, Well, they've
got nothing for food.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Now they start selling villas, right, they sell hundreds of
villas that they don't even have like houses. Right, this
is your house that you're gonna be staying at. It's
all bs. Watch it for yourself. It goes, it gets
worse and worse and worse and worse. But it comes
to the point where they say, we've got to cancel this.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
On the first day, not all the flights have made
it in yet.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Did they suffer from sand fleas to I'm sure there will.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I did think could go wrong, would go wrong. Yeah,
So what happens is.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
The the Bahama government is not letting any of the
water or food through, and they say you got to go.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Down here and do this, Yes, and then you can
find out on your own, go through customs and all that, yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
And get it through. But at some point they just
cancel it. And now all these vendors and all these people,
the Bahama people that have been contracted, the contractors whoever,
they say, we're not gonna get paid.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
What do we do. So they say, here's what we'll do.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
We're gonna go and kidnap some of these festival organizers
and we'll get paid. We're gonna get paid through the ransom. Well,
one of the top dogs, he knows this stuff is
getting ready to go down. He changes clothes with some
poor sap just tearing down fences and that's where I stopped.
I still got about forty minutes to go on it.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Yeah, and then they remember they try to do the
fire festival too, and they canceled it before you even
got off the ground.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I know people were buying tickets.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't know crazy that that is a conversation, but
it was a lot of money. And it shows how
people can be suckers, and how people with a lot
of money or their parents have a lot of money,
it can be suckers. I mean, what kid goes home
and says, oh, yeah, I bought a little chalet thing
for this concert. It's whatever, half a million dollars. What Okay,
(27:28):
have fun? What?
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:31):
And by the way, I said, sand fleas or sand flies,
they eat you a lot. They eat you alive. So
people don't understand where you go into the wilderness. I
have friends that travel to Alaska and they go and
you know, they go way into Alaska. It's a forty
five minute play ride from the phone. And they're like,
you don't understand the mosquitos at night. You have to
(27:51):
be in full netting, and when they were drinking, they
would sit around the fire and drink bourbon. You would
have to lift your netting and drink a little bit
because there were millions of mosquitoes. We were going to
do a trip to the island right off. It was
a civil war fort at Tortiga.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
And I like taco bells, Tortigas and there.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
And the lady said, look, you don't want to do that.
They were like, there's no bathrooms, there's no water. It's
just an old fort on a little island in seventy
five miles south of Key West, they said. She said,
the sandflies alone, we eat you alive all night long.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Such a miserable experience.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
She said, don't do it. She goes, if you want to,
we'll get a boat to go out there. You can
spend the day out there, go swim in, do whatever
you want, and then go back to the boat that night.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
She goes, that's what you want to do.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
I always other sand fleas. I'm gonna look up sand fleas.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Or fleas if it fleas.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Because you can, and whenever you're on the beach, you
could those kind of they can replace bedbugs.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Oh are you serious? Yes, well, they chew on you, man.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
It is because I have watched a couple of those
the shows where everyone takes their clothes off and tries
to survive in the wilderness completely naked. But they have
like a naked in the free yeah, oh, naked in
a fray. And they have the they have like a satchel.
That's the only thing they have. Is like a man bag,
like a purse. That's the other thing they have. And
that that happens to them. The reason that the people
(29:15):
quit is because of the sand fleas.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
Okay, I'm confused. Their sand flies and their sand fleas.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Sand fleas are probably the ones that chew on you.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Uh what's the difference? What is and what does that
mean for your weekend? Find out after the news at eleven.
