Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):

turn a molehill into a mountain to do your pet peeves,
your first world problems, your West do problems, call them
what you will, but contact us with your problem Scott
at kfab dot com is the best way to do it.
We may try and open up the phones a little

(00:21):
bit later. I've got some great emails flagged. I've got
my own petty complaint. But first let's introduce you to
the PCT girls as usual.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
It's where's my did like a walk up song?

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Do you we could have set this up ahead of time. Well,
I think Leah is providing your walk up sound. Go ahead, Leah,
that's y Zoey, that's Zoe. Zoe is here and then yeah,
this is great. It's like supermarket Sweeps, an old TV show.

(00:59):
So Zoe and Leah are the petty Complaint Thursday Girls,
the PCT Girls, And when they're here, it is time
to start complaining. And you came in with notes. Zoe
lead us off. In the past, your petty complaints have
been legendary. The one about your kid who was having

(01:23):
a tough time keeping his uh I don't even know
how to go about saying this. He was anything.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
I don't remember.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
Your your son was as a very little guy, was
of tent pitching status a lot, and you didn't know
what to do about it.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
And yeah, just daily.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah, because it turns out, I found out it hurts
sometimes if it's too tight. So I just tell him,
you porky picket, no pants, just t shirt, you're good.
We don't need anything on the bottom.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
He's thirteen now, so I'm tally sixteen.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
But he's driving with Wow.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Okay, that's fine. No pants driving is how I do it.
So what is your petty complaint Thursday? Complaint today?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Well, in fairness, in reality, my kids are four and six,
and my petty complaint is that my nanny is pregnant.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Unpopular, all right, I'm sure that you're happy for her,
and that's great, But does it feel like and I've
noted this before, there are a lot of kids going
to school right now and their third grade teacher is
pregnant and we'll be taking maternity leave here in about
a month from now. We'll be on maternity leave through

(02:49):
almost the end of the year. They might come back
for a few weeks then it's Christmas break, and then
they come back second week of January, and then they
kind of finish out the year. And I'm like, wait,
did you just get paid for the entire year when
you've only worked half the year because you timed your
pregnancy so as not to have to deal with the

(03:11):
han yaks in your second grade classroom. I've busted teachers
on this and they've smiled and said, absolutely, we time
it that way.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Real, they're dummies.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
We're not gonna do this during the summer when we're
off anyway. So do you feel like you're your nanny?
But your kids are in school now so there's less nannying.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
I'm a single mom, Scott, so like I need some help?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Bring them here in the studio. It's two hours, two
hours of homeschooling for free.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Yes, this is this? This for okay?

Speaker 4 (03:41):
I mean, while we're talking about things I could complain about.
This place is covered in wires. It hasn't been dusted
in twenty seven years.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Dusted.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
I'm just gonna look that up quick.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
The bun coffee maker outside of this room. Also, I'm
gonna just roll this into the next complaining there's.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
No food here.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
There's no coffee that is drinkable.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
No, well, no, we've got a cur machine over here.
That's over there in the newsroom. That thing, that thing
doesn't work, and we just leave it there. The last
time someone turned it on, it just leaked everywhere.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
With the rest of them, let me tell.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
You how things work here. There are three things in
the building currently that don't work. And rather than have
there are three inanimate objects in the building that don't work. Now,
rather than find the person who can do something about
it and actually, you know, put in a ticket or
whatever you can to fix, they don't do that. They
just write a post it note on it says this

(04:42):
is broken, and then they stick it to the thing
walk away like there it is fixed it. Now, these
are the people I work with. I'm not going to
go out of my way to fix stuff for people
that won't even do anything, So I'm the one that
ends up finding them, Like, all right, I guess I
gotta fix this. You know, I got enough to do.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
It's on the fence before you offered to bring my
kids here. But now that I know, there could be
a treasure hunt of all notes and like it's a
free for all for whoever can fix it, we should,
she will bring all.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
For it, right.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yeah. Here's my favorite of the signs in the building,
the men's room up here on this floor over there,
the urinal, I guess doesn't work. It just kind of
started running and leaking and all kinds. So they shut
off the water on it, and then they put not
just a sign there on the urinal that says this
is broken, there's a sign on the door to the
bathroom that says urinal doesn't work. You know, it's a

(05:36):
step and a half away from the actual thing it
doesn't work, and you know there's another receptacle in there
to you know, to accommodate you. But there's just a
big sign in the door for anyone that passes by, Hey,
urinal's broken in here. I'm like, this is so tacky,
And guys will figure that out when they go in there,
and they just go into the stall.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
It's not a big deal totally.

Speaker 4 (05:57):
And in terms of the way that signage is put together,
I'm just guessing it's an old ratty piece of it
is paper and a piece of yes with like a
brown mark from someone's dirty finger putting it on there.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah, that's exactly what All right, Leah, what's your what's
your petty complaint?

Speaker 3 (06:14):
I have a petty complaint. So in our neighborhood, people
park on the street all the time, like it's just
hard to see around the people. We've got kids everywhere,
there's people driving and you can't see anything. My petty
complaint is that if I'm letting you go because I
have to pull off so that somebody can drive by,
and you don't wave to me as a thank you,
I get very upset about that. Just have some respect.

(06:37):
I paused for you, all right, Well.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
But are you pausing for them because the car that's
impeding your forward progress is in your lane? Therefore, well, yeah,
that you stop because.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
You have to.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
The petty complaint Thursday. We often swerve into traffic.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Issues, and we do swerve in the traffic.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's the it's the easiest one to do. But this
is one that Look if if the your lane of
traffic is impeded by a car that's parked there, correct,
obviously you're the one that has to stop. What do
you mean You're like, I don't have to. You can
drive into oncoming traffic anytime you want. No one's gonna
stop you.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
Even if it's a one, two, three finger. I just
you don't even have to take your whole hand off
the steering weel.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
I just want some respect.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
I know you know what you should do.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
Let's do this because I remember how like I do
the cop point when someone like can't make a decision
on the stop.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Sign, Why don't you just stop cop pointing at them.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I can do that, but I still want respect.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
No, just take control, be like I don't need you
to wave because I got your number.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
I got your numbers. I see your car, yep, I
see you there.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
I feel like that's it's it's it's almost like, what
see what I did there for you?

Speaker 2 (07:49):
I got the assist. You see the assist I gave
you all that.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
You're welcome.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
We're pointing out hand signals on the radio idiots, so
I can't. I absolutely am right there with you on
the appreciation for getting the wave. I always give the
wave anytime that any of this that goes on. But
you're you're arrogance that like I I didn't have to stop, Yes,
you did, because otherwise you were going to crash into

(08:17):
an old Now Geo's out of.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
The kindness of my heart that I stopped for these people.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
Scott, Yeah, if you could. Your options at that point
you're driving along. You either hit a nineteen ninety three
GEO tracker parking the road in your cruddy neighborhood. Yeah
you live in Squalors. I do. It's fine, and that's fine.
Everyone's got to live somewhere. That's fine. Paid. Or you
can drive into oncoming traffic and you're like, hey, I

(08:45):
didn't have to stop. No, I guess your other options
to go up in someone's yard and just pass them
on the.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Right, then maybe I will, Yeah I need to.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Maybe they should be.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
But in your neighborhood, you're gonna get lost in the
unmode lawns and lyons, all.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
The weeds too high to see my car coming because
there's a heads up the lot a broken down one.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
We were underway in a petty complaint Thursday on this
the first day of school for Omaha Public Schools. None
of this is on the radio. We'll clean it up
in posts. This is just a practice round. I have
a petty complaint Thursday as well, and it has to
do with this first day of school. That is Leah,
that is Zoe. The PCT girls are here. We are underway.
We'll get to your petty complaints as well. Next Scott

(09:31):
Head banging PCT girls here. The petty Complaint Thursday is underway.
That is Zoe and Leah enjoining Guilty by Gravity Kills.
Is that piece of bumper music here on eleven ten
kab one of the best concerts I've ever been to.
Love those guys, Oh I missed nineteen ninety seven. Gravity
Kills is the name of that nineties alt rock techno band.

(09:52):
What did you look fantastic.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
At that concert?

Speaker 1 (09:53):
What did you That's probably when I had longer hair.
Some photos exist.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Have you been great for a wire Winday?

Speaker 1 (10:00):
Little patch came in when I was twenty right up here, like.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
A birthmark kind of patch, like just a.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Little patch, and someone, you know, the best thing was
they said, like, oh do you color it that way
on purpose? Yeah? College Coyle's girls love it. Yeah, Coll's
girls love it. When it looks like a bird just
dropped on you here right right here, that's great. Yeah,
me and Rashid Wallace. So there's some talk about hair.
But petty Complaint Thursday is for turning your molehills into mountains.

(10:30):
And here's my petty complaint. We timed this with the
first day of classes for all students in Omaha Public schools,
a lot of other districts already in and that means
that the complaints are out there saying, oh, geez, now
we got all these kids back in school. That means
my Facebook page and be littered with all these people
here posting pictures of their kids standing there on the

(10:51):
front steps, backpacks on going to the first day of school.
What do I care about?

Speaker 2 (10:55):
All right, I just showed you just now.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
My complaint is not about the people that post all
these pictures of their kids. My complaint is about the
people who complain about because.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Men, no one men can we get like a.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
If you're on Facebook, it's your If you're on Facebook,
you've either asked a friend someone or accepted a friend
request from someone. You ostensibly want to be connected to
this person on Facebook. You know these people, perhaps you
know their kids. Perhaps that's the only way you check
in with these kids. You know these people you knew
from high school or college, or former co workers or
your cousins or whatever, and so you want to see

(11:35):
what's going on in their lives, right or do you
just want Facebook to be a receptacle for here's all
my stuff, like all my stuff. I'm never gonna like
your stuff. I'm never gonna see I'm never gonna comment
on your stuff. I'm never gonna accept your messages or anything. No, no, no,
this has got to be a two way street, unlike
what Leah drives on where she's like my way or
the highway. It's got to be a two way street.

(11:56):
If you are connected these people on Facebook, it's because
you ostensibly care about their lives and that includes their families.
And if they're posting pictures of the kids that you
never get a chance to see, so you can see,
oh my gosh, look at this little Brandy is going
to third grade. That's great, then then like it. If
you don't, and if you don't like it, then then

(12:18):
just scroll past it. You don't have to post your
own stuff going oh geez, all these moms posting pictures
of their kids. Just leave it alone. It's the matter
with you. It's gets pictures of cute kids who look really,
really sleepy on their first day of school.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
It's a great thing, it really is.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, so stop complaining about it. That's my petty complaint.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
You just keep scrolling if you don't like it, just
you don't have to comment on it. You don't like anything,
you just keep scrolling.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah, okay, get that many of that.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
Right, Just keep scrolling. And I don't actually see hardly
any Facebook posts from real people. Get I'll get the
one political post from someone who I've never really connected to, total
and it has like one like and no comments, but
it's it's anti one thing or another, and it's aggressive,
and it's like Facebook seems like they wanted to show

(13:07):
me this post. I wonder why it's weird. And then
I get like this week in rock history and the
charts from nineteen eighty six, and of course I'm going
to read that like oh oh, look at look at
this great great week for depeche Mode, and and next thing,
I know, like I haven't seen anyone's actual posts. It's
it's weird.

Speaker 4 (13:25):
I uh. My page is inundated with posts from do
Not Date Him, Nebraska, Like inundated, that's a constant stream.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
That's a page.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Oh, I have two different pages that do it. One
specific to the town is that you can't get in it.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
It's a closed group.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
It's a for women.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Dudes get in there.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
But I'm sure you guys have your own two but
inundated with pictures of do not stay like stay away
and SI they.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
At least post good pictures of me? Are they all bad?

Speaker 4 (14:00):
It's just a picture, and then just a whole bunch
of red flag emojis?

Speaker 1 (14:05):
I can you at least show me on your phone.
I've got to see some of this.

Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, because they'll kick me out for real, well maybe
off the air.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Don't tell that Leah. You're using fake names, remember Zoe
and Leah? All right? Uh, did we get a petty
complaint out of you? Back to you?

Speaker 2 (14:25):
We got one, back to Zoe.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
My petty complaint, and I'm not really sure where the
complaint goes.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
But there are two women in.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
My life that I really love a lot, and they
are both named Karen.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
All right, you just deleted the last few seconds. If
you're listen, if you're listening, if you're listening, if you're
listening on iHeartRadio, and you enjoyed a foul word, let's
back it up just a few seconds. Your complaint is
that you have you don't like having friends named Karen.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
I just feel like it's really unfortunate. I don't want
to say their names out loud. I don't ever want
to answer the phone and.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Be like Karen.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
Girl. I just I just feel I feel like it's
unfair to.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
The good Karen's. I don't know two really really good ones.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Right, I completely agree. I don't use that term to
describe busy bodies on this radio show. There's an email
that I get from someone who calls herself Karen, but
it's Karen mcmiddle, aged liberal, white woman face or something
stupid like that. And that's just kind of a funny name.
But yeah, it will. But I know she's great. That's

(15:37):
one of your friends. But no, I don't do that
for the same reason because I know some really great
people named Karen. There's no reason to have that name
maligned in that way. So good way to stand up
for Karen.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yes to both of them.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Leah, Leah, what's your petty complaint? Then I'll get to
some emails. You came one.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
I know, I didn't know it was coming to all right,
that's do you I have a complaint that involves you have.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Listener complain Yes, I do, I have several.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Wait, yeah, she said it involves me.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Okay, let's get to it.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
I I my complaint is that I wish my torso
was as long as yours.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, before we started, before we started, they're standing next
to each other measuring their torsos, and they're asking me,
who's got the longer torso. I know, I feel like
I'm not prepared for this.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Oh, the answer is Leah by by a mile like
a good I was like four or five inches four
or five inches more of torso, and I have four
or five inches more of it but the same.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
The same height.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, but I couldn't really tell because I was like, Leah,
put your shirt on. I don't need to know.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
You don't have to look at body.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
I just.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
I've got some emails here, all right, my emails, and says,
here's my petty complaint. The outside temperature display in my
jillion dollar truck shows three degrees higher than the actual
outside temperature and it can't be fixed.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
You know what. That's a great petty complaint. He understood
the assignment. It is petty is all get out.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
But how does he know what the actual outside Because when.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
You drive by the places like on Dodge, like and
they'll have the temperature. I just assume that that is
the authority. Yeah, the outside temp is the authority.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
And sometimes they say it on the radio, and you know,
like you guys are like it.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Is I know, butrees I honestly, I'm not a big
fan of that. It's the National Weather Service official temperature,
and it's it's like every fifteen or twenty minutes or something.
But so sometimes if I'm in my car or on
my phone, I'll do my phone temperature. I find that
to be more accurate to what my car says, because
I don't want to give a temperature in the radio
and have someone look at the temperature display in their
car and go, it's six degrees off. These guys don't

(17:52):
know what they're doing, and it makes it it's an
issue we have. We have meetings about it here at
the radio station, and they're different people here who have
different ideas is what the official temperature should be, and
it's it's gotten ugly here. I'm telling back.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Off of that complaint.

Speaker 4 (18:08):
Have you ever opened your phone with someone in the
same town, at the same place and your weather says
something different than theirs does. Yes, that happens a lot too,
and we're looking at the same phone iPhone. Yes, I
bet if we all three pulled it up right now,
we'll have different Should we do it?

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, let's do it. What's the temperature in Omaha right now?

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (18:27):
Oh, you have to say it in you don't know
where the it's a little cloud with the sunshine on it.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
If you all right? So this is a this is
at the top.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
It's all different.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Mine says rain in seventy seven degrees.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
I've got just cloudy in seventy eight.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
What do you have mine sets expect light rain in
the next hour, seventy eight degrees.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
Man, I've got light rain. We have the same phones, right, we.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
Have the same phones. Yeah, we're all looking at the
same thing, and we're sitting on each other's lap. Santa Claus,
we don't have a lot of room here in the studio.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
I I've already been yeah it once.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah, I'm telling you when when we give out the
temperature here on eleven ten kfab. There's a lot of
thought that goes into it, and everyone's got their own
preference of doing it. I don't do it the right way.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
What is the right way?

Speaker 1 (19:20):
The National Weather Service? Okay, and let's let's look at this.
According to the National Weather Service, the official reading right
now for Omaha is seventy six degrees.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
Somebody, None of us have different, Zero of us had.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
That right, but that the last time they checked in
with that was over half an hour ago. It could
be anything by now, not real. All right, Okay, that
is Zoe, that is Leah. We are underway with a
petty complaint Thursday. Let's get back to the complaints in
the inbox, Scott. My petty complaint is old guys who

(19:56):
like to walk around the locker room at the gym
with no clothes on. For the love of God, put
a towel on. No one wants to see that. Signed
Becky oh No. A Hunter has sent this email in
thank you Hunter. I was at Jim in Kansas City,
and there is when you get out of the shower

(20:20):
you can either kind of take a left and go
back to your locker. You can take a right. They
both kind of look like the same thing. And if
you're not paying attention, if you take a right, you're
walking right into the lobby of the gym. I'm checking
at Jim and this guy who I actually know at
the gym is suddenly walking towards me completely naked. I'm like,

(20:43):
hey man, He's like suddenly looking around, like realizing why
are all these people in the locker room.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
He's like.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Ran back in there. He was so embarrassed. But you
can absolutely see how that happens. And that's the excuse
I use. And I start walking around naked the same.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
Lobby.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
Didn't know where. I was like, you're not even a
member at this gym.

phenom when it comes to riding bikes and motorcycles and
e bikes.

And all of that stuff.

Speaker 1 (21:32):

Speaker 2 (21:35):
What I mean by my little guy. We just got
short arms, like.

We don't like he's a He's a good dude, and
I talked a short king. I talked to him all
the time, and he's always like, Okay, really.

Everyone only date muppets.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Okay, So or were you talking about your son.

Speaker 4 (22:06):
I've lost my train of thought. Yes, we got him
a tiny Do you know what a pocket rocket is.
It's like a tiny little motorcycle that.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Like we're talking about, potty brain. You're the one the
radio fifteen minutes ago, you dropped that curse all the radio.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
No one even heard it because I said it right.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
Anyway, all I'm trying to say is that there's a
number of kids with like e bikes and dirt bikes
and whatever.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
And so now he's got one. He's just little. And
then this guy at the end of the street walks
over to me and says, is that we've never met,
he's newer to the neighborhood. He just says, is this
your son?

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh, okay, we just heard the anthem with piple.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
So that's like firing in my bones all the time
because I'm always on.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
I'm always afraid of people.

Speaker 4 (22:53):
I'm always like, I don't know what this person is
going to do, Like I don't And so I just
said thanks for your concern, But in my mind I
was like, sir, not only are there a number of
other bikes here, you're a fun killer, but this is
a neighborhood full of swingers, like, we.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Don't have rules. There are no rules in this neighborhood.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
None.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
I don't know what we're talking about.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
I'm so sorry to jump around.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
I'm just saying like, if you're gonna start to implement
rules of any kind, you picked the wrong place, pal,
whether it's or extra curriculars.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
But don't give me a killer.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Everyone calmed down. I will I will handle this, okay.
I have yet to see what the nature of his complaint.
What I heard him say was, is this your son?

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Sorry?

Speaker 2 (23:40):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
He could have said, oh, he's he's a great kid. No,
he obviously has an awesome mom.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
He goes, this isn't a race track for anybody to
be I'm really sorry. I just skipped right over the
most important part. He's going way too.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Fast, which is like, not faster than the little thing
can go.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
He hasn't even fully opened it up yet, like so,
and it's not any faster than like a scooter going down.
So that was my issue. And also he didn't offer, like,
what would you like me to do, sir? Do you
want me to stand with you so we can watch
them together? Are you seriously concerned about my son's safety?

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Thet kids riding bikes come on or whatever, up and
down hills and streets and all that. That's how that works.
We were we didn't. We had some really dangerous curbs
where I grew up, and of course we would jump them.
And then when we kind of outgrew how scary those
curves where we started building ramps. See anything we could

(24:36):
do to make it more dangerous for our unhelmeted heads.
And thankfully there are no long term effects from any
of this. And and thankfully there are no long term
effects from any of them. So did this guy not
grow up on the same planet I did?

Speaker 2 (24:54):
No, not the same planet as me either.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
And it's again, he's got a helmet on, he's got
this chest protector. He's got like leg protectors or whatever.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
On there too. He's suited up.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah. Now regarding these swingers comment, does that mean that,
like you're not going to give him the time of
the day at the next party.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Oh, I don't.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
There's there's a handful of us that don't get invited.
I'm on the list.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
I'm certain he's also not on the list.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
Well, you can't. You can't bring your smartphone in there
and be like, hey, can I Facebook live.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
This, which is exactly what I would do. Yeah, No,
I don't play.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
I don't play with a full set, so I can't participate.
But I really love all my neighbors.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
When you're going to a swingers party, you bring the
full set, but you don't go into Instagram on it.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
So yeah, maybe I should take over. I'll handle this.
What does that mean? When's the last party you went to?

Speaker 1 (25:46):
The swingers party? You just know? You just it's like
fight club, you got you gotta know how someone identifies
at their house as a swinger's house, which, as I've
already said and got a bunch of trouble for on
this radio state all double triple down on it. It's
the uh it's the pineapples are out upside down. Yes,
it's not the upside down pineapples. It's a sign with

(26:09):
the blue dot on it. That's how you know that.
It's a gosh, these are just jokes, people, but man,
some people got been out of shape about that joke.
All right, Reilly. I got to read this email in
the way that it is written. Much of it is
in all caps.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
I know.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Andrews says, Hello, Scotty, let's focus on the important thing here.
I have not heard a Mountain Lion update on this
radio station in weeks. What is going on with the
west Omaha Mountain Lion? Is it dead? Did it move
to Canada? I don't know, and no one seems to care.

(26:50):
Kfab promotes itself as Omaha's news, weather and traffic station.
The west Omaha Mountain Lion is news, weather and traffic.
This is the kind of story you're supposed to care
about and nothing for money? What do you not know
what happened to the mountain Lion? Then at least make
something up like all the other news stations do. At
least you act like you care. Entertain me. Damn it.
That's from Andrew.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Something just really quick, Yeah, Andrew. I also get a
little annoyed when someone doesn't pay attention to all the
kittens in the world that they should be paying attention to.
But like Scott said, you came here for the news
and the weather and what was the third three of
the traffic, and we.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Have nailed all three of those things. Serves yeah, right.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Well, the the mountain lion thing that was over a
year ago lying in west Omaha, that was like over
a year ago it was mostly near about one hundred
and eighth in l oh Then there have been a
couple of other sidings that kind of pop up. Uh,
it's not that crazy, actually.

Speaker 4 (27:46):
Please one hundredneath and l like fast food.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Alley no on the on the west side of that street.
There were some of those like old like banged out
old hotels, like walls of falling down. Oh yeah, we
had a whole an area where the Mountain Lion was
living in there and eating transients.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
Yeah, are you serious eating dead people?

Speaker 1 (28:07):
That's kind of what I figured. Well, I don't know
that anyone was found dead, so they might have just
been murdering. It was no just chewing on people who
were still alive, but just kind of like all coked
out hanging out in there.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
So I think cats eat. In our office, we talk
about this a lot.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
There's an older woman who volunteers with us, and we
talk about it with her, but her cat like tries
to bite her when she's sleeping. And then someone else
was like, that's because they think you're dead.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
I know, I think you're dead. They're going to eat
you if you die. So call.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Every once in a while there's a story about you know,
some guy says, I was out hiking all by myself
and I fell down and uh and broke my leg.
And I tried to crawl for a little bit, but
I just couldn't do it. And so I'm just lying
there hoping that someone is coming along to help me.
And my trusty dog is waiting by my side the

(28:55):
whole time, and I'm thinking that dog was waiting for
you to die so it could eat you.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Totally starving.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
That dog is going to chew on you.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
You haven't given me one snack out of that backpack because.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
We've been whinding about your leg, So make get going.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
One get up? Yeah, all right, let's see here, let's
go to Amanda, she sent this to Scott a kfab
dot Com, says, I just had to share my petty complaint. Yep,

stop being so lazy, signed Amanda, What what is?

Speaker 2 (29:35):

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yes, or you walk up past Are you sure?

Speaker 4 (29:42):
I mean, I know, like on the flat ones at
the airport, but they stare ones they meant to just
stand there.

Speaker 1 (29:49):

level of Dillers to the second level of Dillers. Now

Speaker 4 (30:28):
I'm baby, I cannot stand one more note of this
beautiful piano music playing.

if I'm looking for a shirt, or if I'm looking

(30:55):
for pants or sweatpants or a tank top or whatever.
It's all right there in the rack. It's like it's like, now, yeah,
pretty much. It's like every every other this is the greatest.
If I go in, if I go into J. C. Penny,
it's like, Okay, here's where we have the dress pants,

(31:16):
here's where we have the athletic wear. Here's where we
have the jeans. Here's where we have the Kagi's. And
I gotta walk all over the place, and then there's
subsets in there, like here's this designer stuff. Here's that

It's suit coats, it's hockey jerseys, it's everything. It's all
right there. Here's everything that fits you, and I love it.

For them all right. A lot of ladies there, eh,
I'm just guessing.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
No, my wife likes it too, but I think she buys.
They have other stuff in there other than clothes. But
as far as I'm concerned, it's all about just like,
here's all the pants.

you a wardrobe.

Speaker 1 (32:35):

petty complaint Thursday.

Who's got what? There's Zoe Leah here on eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
Well, now, I'm just bothered that you call flip flops thongs.

You put thongs on your feet with slides.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
Okay, slides, let's not strap over the top of your tops.

Speaker 2 (33:27):

the dorms?

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah, that's fine. I don't know, I don't know. I
don't know who's got we got twenty seconds.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Biggest complaint when you wear your skim's body suit and
you are all staffed in the bottom, as you know,
I'm with you, and uh, and then you decide that
the best thing to wear over that is a jumpsuit.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Terrible.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Don't do so if you, yeah, because you have to
take the whole thing off in order to go. And
so when that thing unsnapped and flips up like the
dad's thing on Peter Pan like.
