Speaker 1 (00:00):
David, do you remember, or I should ask, when you
were in school, did you have to run the mile
and do it in a specific time?
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Yes, I dreaded it. I don't like running unless a
bear is chasing me. I know.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
So what do you think a good mile time, for
an average Joe, not like a runner?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I am so bad at this. I've never paid attention.
A mile, is that like....
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I'm really gonna if you had to go out right
now and walk run a mile what do you think
your finish time.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Would be oh man you don't even know what to
i don't even know what to guess um 15 minutes
okay i think you can do it realistic.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
I totally realistic what.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
About stopping for a beer and or a shot.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I think you could still do it okay 15 minutes
if you hustle why do you ask Because a British
runner named Josh Kerr, he is, let's see, is he 28? Yeah, 28.
He broke the time record for the mile.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
This boy ran a stinking mile in... Three minutes, 42 seconds.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Get out of here. You sure it wasn't an Uber?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
David, songs that we just played and are about to
play are longer than that. He can run a mile
faster than some of our songs. I can't wrap my
brain around this.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
He puts his sneakers on. He leaves the starting line,
crosses the finish line before Sweet Home Alabama finishes.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
It's unbelievable. When I was in college and played softball,
They would be like, okay, when you come back from
Christmas vacation, you have to be able to run. Everyone
on the team has to run a mile every day
till everyone breaks eight minutes.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
When I tell you, me and the bigger girls were
running for our lives at the end to just barely.
And that was like my life's work was to break nine.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Minutes, eight minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So to think about this dude, three minutes and 42 seconds.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Amazing. It was also a record.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Set by a man from Morocco back in 1999. So
people have been gunning for this record for that long,
and it finally happened.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I was a good sprinter. I was not a good...
You get over, I don't know, 300 yards, and I'm
tapping out. I got that pain in my side.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
That's what I used to tell my coaches. I'm built
for speed, not distance. And I'm not even built for speed.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
That is so impressive.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
So congratulations to 28-year-old Josh Kerr of London. He is
now the new record holder.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
So great. And Meredith, it's happening again. Stuck in a
porta potty. Come on. And these stories are so gross
because we've all stepped into those at events, looked down
and said, dear Lord.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
I am such a germaphobe. It can ruin the rest
of the day for me after I've been in one
of those.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Boy, you are not kidding. And I tell you, this
is the second one in a month. So if this
happens again, It's going to be a regular feature. All right?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
First time, it was some cheap sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
The person went in headfirst to get them out of
the basin or whatever you want to call it.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
The basin. And now it is Mountain Dew. What? Yeah,
this is insane. Okay. Mountain don't. Mountain don't. No chance.
Mountain don't. If this happens again, it will become a
regular feature. Someone's being naughty. Yeah. Stuck in the porta potty.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Oh, gosh. I can just smell what they use to
try to make it seem like it's clean in there.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
There is a guy had to be cut out of
a porta potty toilet bowl by Kansas City firefighters. It's
a viral video. He was trapped inside the John for
eight hours. No way. He crawled inside the holding tank
to retrieve a fallen soda. No. This is bizarre. The
(04:08):
man said he went fishing in the portable toilet for
his fallen Mountain Dew when somehow he ended up fully
inside the raw sewage tank, according to a representative of
Patriot Portable Restrooms, which provided, I guess it was a
World Cup event. And they were doing a routine check
(04:29):
before they load them up. I'm sure empty, then load.
And They heard something, they opened the door and didn't
see anything. And at that point realized, The guy is
in here somehow. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
My face is all screwed up. I can't even relax
my face. This is so gross.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah, it is contorted. I'll give you that. He could
not reach the door, couldn't get out of the toilet.
The worker and a cop tried to pry the door
open because it was locked. They looked inside when they
finally broke it open. They couldn't see anybody. The lid
was closed, and it kind of startled them. when they
went in, then his head, just like a Benny Hill movie,
(05:13):
popped out of the toilet and he goes, I'm in here.
This is a quote from the story.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I just don't understand how the heck you get in there.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
You're stuck. It's hot.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I don't even want to touch the seat, let alone
get in that thing over a mountain dew. Look, I
like a dew just as much as the next guy.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
But I'm not.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Going headfirst into a toity for it. Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
This makes no sense. Finally, the man told first responders
he'd been trying to retrieve the Mountain Dew bottle. He
dropped inside the night before. Wait, what? That means he
was in the porta potty for eight hours before liberated
from the crappy situation. Hepatitis, E.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Coli, norovirus, salmonella, you name it. That's all I can
think of right now from this story. Was he going
to just wipe it.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Off and drink it?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Do you know what I mean? There's a detail missing
from this story that we're not getting. There's something wrong
with this dude.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Want to thank Camps for passing this along. Mountain Dew,
Mountain Don't, or Mountain Doo-Doo. You take your pick. It
is now time to give away a four-pack of tickets
to Busch Gardens. We're going to hook you up, but
you have to win this. Let's play Game Time with
David Jones and Meredith Michaels. So, I love this one.
(06:40):
No Googling, guys. We're going to fill in the blank.
This is an actual story. I'm going to leave one
or two words out, and you have to fill in
the blank. Are we ready? Man balances 195 blanks on
(07:02):
his head for 30 seconds. 195 blanks on his head
for 30 seconds. It's a world record.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Okay, I am trying to think. What could I possibly
balance on my head in that big of a number?
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Here's a hint. I think you could do... Maybe five.
If you got real tricky and creative, maybe six.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I don't think that helped me.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
If you do a dozen, I'd be impressed. This guy,
195 blanks. on his head i like it for 30.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Seconds okay 888-599-1079 we've got four tickets to bush gardens
and right now they're having fun after hours longer hours
it's called summer nights oh.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I like it so let's do it game time get
ready for game time with david jones and meredith michaels
you're never bored games morning oh hi um good morning
my name is kim Okay, Kim, did you want to
take a stab at 195 blanks on this guy's head? Yes.
I'm sure I'm wrong. I just thought chairs because I
(08:16):
just watched a circus. Chairs. I'm sure I'm wrong. Oh,
my gosh. I'd love to see the indentation on that
dude's noggin, but it is not chairs. Good guess. I
didn't think so.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Well, if they're really light and stacked.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Well, maybe.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
There you go, Meredith.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Thank you, guys. I love listening to you.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
We appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
We love you back. Thank you for listening. Nobody's gotten
it yet. 195 blanks on this dude's head. Could it
be plates? Plates. Great guess. I can see that, you know,
in center ring. But nope, he set a record and
it's not plates. All right. Thank you. I want to
(08:58):
formally thank these people who are not Googling. It's very impressive.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
You got a guess?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Rolls of toilet paper.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Rolls of toilet paper is correct.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
What? I saw it and I thought it was the most.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Bizarre thing ever. So that was a guess?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
That was a guess.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Impressive. Okay, so this guy, what he did was he
had like cardboard or slots covered. They were on their side.
They weren't on the round side. And he stacked them up,
stacked them up. And then once he had the 195,
he carefully put it on his head and held it
(09:41):
for 30 seconds. I think it was like 39 seconds. Wow. Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Well, because of your correct guess, you have four tickets
to Busch Gardens.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
What's your name?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
My name is Rose.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Rose, thank you so much for playing. Thanks. Great game.
