Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, now it's ninety six point nine a cat. We
are one day closer to Friday. Thursday is one of
my favorite days of the week because one we do
pay bills and two we have a throwback Thursday, which
you know I geek out on, so I'm pulped for today.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And we also have Chase Matthews tickets. Last time he
was at Cody Joe's he sold out. Tickets aren't on
sell yet, but you can win them before you can
buy them with us later this morning.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
That's news to me. I didn't even know we had
Chase Matthew tickets a day.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well, yes we did.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Let's go. This day got even better. Grab me and
Sarah Lee stay tuned. 'shaotte's number one for New Country
Happy Thursday? Yes, what's the Carolina's talking about today? Sarah
Lee's top three?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Are you tired grand fun of hearing me say it's
gonna be another rainy day today?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
I am not tired of it. Actually, I've enjoyed the rainstorms.
I just want everyone to be safe on the roads
because I know it gets kind of dicey out there.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
And it's early, but there are already accidents out there,
and that's what I wanted to bring up. Leave early
if you have to take four eighty five outer loop
because there is an accident right there at Marker's se
near West Boulevard. Traffic is backed up all the way
to Wilkin Symboule Ofvard, which is exit nine. The left
lane is closed after Wilkin Symboulevard. Also, the left lane
(01:11):
is blocked on two seventy seven Interloop at I seventy
seven Exit one and traffic is backed up to Church Street.
So fay, wait, yes, if you can take a different route,
if you have to go that way, just know it's
gonna take you extra time this morning. As you know,
a lot of schools are starting back this week, there's
a lot more cars on the road. So with the rain,
(01:32):
with the extra cars, add extra time in your commute.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Extra caution. We're gonna play extra songs just for you
because we're gonna be hanging out in the car just
a little bit longer than normal.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
And I saw this on the TV and I was like, what,
Charlotte has been ranked fourth for tree hugging for tree huggers,
and like, what does that even mean? In a recent
ranking of urban forest that means the commitment to maintaining
a healthy urban tree canopy. We're fourth for that, so
that's a great thing. We're healthy when it comes to trees.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah, we're third once I start to register. When I
moved here.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And I thought it then people were actually out there
trying to earth and ground and hug trees. So I'm
glad to know what it actually means. And there is
this scam alert that you need to be aware of.
Tell your grandparents and your parents. If you get a
text message that's from a trim Health, make sure it's legit.
A lot of people are receiving text messages claiming to
(02:28):
be from a trim Health about a billing issue, So
think twice before you click the link. Maybe just call
up Atrium and say, hey, is this legit? Don't fall
for the scam and let them steal your money.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I am so glad you brought that up because you
saved me money weeks ago. I don't even know if
I ever told you this. You did a story about
a scam on the highway. Oh yeah, well I got
those texts after you told me about it, and I delete, delete,
They've got to track me down.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
This is real where they're like they scam your tag,
Yeah you.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Owe this me, No, don't fall for it. Sara Lee's
Top three saved me a hundred and seventeen dollars and
whatever that scam was.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, well, so just be cautious to make sure a
lot of elderly parents and grandparents fall for that. Make
sure to tell them said they don't get got on.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
The flip side of that coin. It is not a
scam and it's something that we look forward to doing
every single day. And today is Super Motocross Passes because
we are giving away a family four pack seven to
ten for Cat Fight ninety six point nine The Cat.
It is Thursday. We are Gramby and Sarahly. Back to
school kind of went rocky in sarah Le's household. It's
(03:32):
ninety six point nine the Cat.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So both of my boys had their first day of
school yesterday and I was so excited, and I had
one request from my husband.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Would you heard Because I called him, I saw it
in real time. I can confirm that you only had
one request.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Please take back to school pictures?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And he did. I mean I saw a photo that
he took.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I could not believe the pictures that he text messaged me.
During the show, all my friends are posting on Instagram
and Facebook pictures of their children holding signs. First day
a fifth grade and they looked so.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Amazing back to school outfits.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yes, head to Joe fly my kids. The pictures I
got are they're yawning, literally yawning in the carpool line
on the way to school. No full body picture at all.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
The one I saw your husband had half of his
face in the frame. Bear was in the car. He
was yawning. I couldn't see his outfit. You know, I
thought it was very candid.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Well, so then it gets better. I go to pick
my kids up. I get Bear. Now, mind you, I
spent hundreds of dollars on school supplies, and his book
bag was packed to the max.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
I loaded all the.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Things he needed, and when I picked him up, I
noticed that his book bag was pretty empty, so I
thought they unloaded. It turns out that my husband took
all the school supplies that I bought my son pulled
it out of.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
The book bag.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So Bear went to his first day at fifth grade yesterday,
brand new school with zero school's applies.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Graham, He's gonna be a cool kid. Every look at
him and say oh, look at him. He don't even
need trapper keepers.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
It was prepared, and he looks so not prepared trapper keepers.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Then it gets better. Cyan comes through the door. I'll
look at his outfit and I'm like, you look so cute.
And I noticed my son spent his whole first day
of second grade wearing his pants backwards. He got his
pants on backwards, which, if I would have had a
full body picture, would have been able to tell my husband, Hey,
Zion's pints are on backwards.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Well, now we know why you didn't get one. He
thought he was going to get away with this.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So that's how the first day of school went for
my family.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Yesterday, Well, you and I were talking about school pictures,
and a little bit later on in the day, because
we are celebrating back to school week, we're gonna share
some of our school photos.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Well, I say, mine is so terrible. I can't even
believe I have the courage to share this picture because
it is whatever you could imagine as bad as ten
times worse than.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
It reminds me, and I think you're not giving yourself
enough credit. It reminds me of one of my favorite
people on the planet. Your grandma, my great great grandma. God,
but I went and found I asked my family to
send me some of my embarrassing school photos. So I
have one for you because we're a team in this thing,
(06:19):
you see.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
But I know Mama Bunn and she always would keep
you fly, I know.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
But I'm going to share those a little bit later.
Hopefully supermotor cross passes. If a family four pack seventy
ten for cat fight, we are sending you for the
right price of free. It's ninety six point nine the cat.

And all the money that is raised from the Boston
buzz sell goes directly to support our local police officers
in Gastonia, any needs that they have. That's what the
money goes to.

who are members of the community like you and I,
and one hundred percent of the money goes towards those
projects that we do every year.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
This brand's golden arches are recognized worldwide. Janey McDonald's you

This toy brand introduced Barbie in nineteen fifty nine.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Jamie Priscilla Jane Mitchel.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Too.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I had no idea who made Barbie.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Well, of course you didn't.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, but I made these questions before we do. Well.
Congratulations Jenny, you and three friends of your Tuesday are
going to see super Motocross.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
WHOA, that's great.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Let's go all right? Sound off to kids have cell
phones in school? It is back to school? Did you
send them with a cell phone? Should they have it
so they not sound off? One eight hundred and five
seven zero nine six nine zero Gramby and Saraily cell
phones in the classroom? Sound off gramm By and Sarahly
is ninety six point nine the cat.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Now. I have two kids, a ten year old and
a seven year old, and I don't like the thaw
of phones in school because I think a lot of
bullying comes from the cell phones. But as a mom
and knowing my son, I wish he could just have
his phone in his book bad not take it out,
only there in case of emergencies.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Were you ever bullied in school?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yes, all the time.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I was also bullied, so I am sensitive to that subject.
I do not have kids, so I can see both
sides of the argument. Very very tricky.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
The thing about it is, when I was younger, social
media wasn't a big thing. Now that we have social media,
the kids are being bullied at an all time high and.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
The platform for bullying is exponentially great now, and there's
so much younger.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
When I got bullied, it was more middle school high school,
but elementary kids are getting bullied. It's awful.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Man.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So I know cell phones do play a part in bullying,
but as a mom, not being able to get in
touch with my child in case I needed him creates
a lot of panic in.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Me, of course. Sound off? Should kids be allowed to
have cell phones in school? One? Eight hundred five seven
zero nine six nine zero it's Gramby and Sarah Lee?
Sound off? Ninety six point nine? The cat name? And
where you're calling from? Should kids have cell phones in school?
Sound off?
Speaker 6 (11:34):
Names Brandon Shall. I'm from Charitblee, North Carolina. No, kids
shouldn't have cell phones in school. The reason I'm saying
that is I'm a teacher myself.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I teach high school.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
Cell Phones are distraction. I think kids need them, but
they don't even have them off and away during the
instructional day period.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Well, first, thank you for what you do. I think
teachers are incredible superheroes. And I have two boys, one
is an enermy at school for the first time, so
that's a big school. And I, as a parent, was
talking to Graham. I like him having his cell phone
in his book bag turned off just in case there's
an emergency, but not to be a distraction during class.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Absolutely. The only issue with that is some kids, you know,
you ideally don't want them to use it, but if
they have it, they're going.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
To use it, then they're gonna get it taken away.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Okay, thank you so much. Bretti School. Do you teach
out good rest to your day? Cherbol High School? Go Iron, No, man,
let's go have a great day. Thanks for calling in.
Hey you naming where you calling from? Sound off?
Speaker 7 (12:35):
Miskey from Charlotte.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
I would say yes, as long as they understand that
there's the responsibility of paying attention to their teacher, that
they can have their phone. But like after their class
work is done, if they're bored, especially if there's an
emergency and their teachers can't get to their phone, still
call that office. Let the kids take the phone. There's
also like, my son did really good in eighth grade
(12:58):
with his phone, so when it comes to high school
this year for him, I know I can trust him
with his phone.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Amazing. Well, thank you. I feel the same way. Thank
you for waking up with us, Missy.
Speaker 8 (13:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Good to hear from you. Missy.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Every day, y'all, every day I've never stopping with man.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Y'all.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
We love you.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Yeah, take you. I have a great day. Ninety six
point nine to catch Your kids have phones in school?
Sound off?
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yes, I think they should have phones in school, but
they's a small caveat.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
It should be the old flip phone so they can't
get on social media or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah, that's nice, that's smart. What's your name and where
you're going from?
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Daryl Wilkins and calling from Indian Land.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Big shout out to all the razors out there, the
razor phones. I forgot about that cricket phone.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Thank you for waking up with us.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yep, absolutely, you guys have a good day.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I appreciate you.
Speaker 8 (13:50):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah. Bye, give us a call one eight hundred five
seven zero nine six nine zero. Sound off. Your kids
have phones in school? It's graan By and serily alexis
from Lancaster on the line. Sound off. Should kids have
cell phones in school?
Speaker 8 (14:05):
No, I'm a school teacher.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
They definitely don't have any business of phones in school.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
We got a school teacher in the building. Okay, why
would you use Is it too distracting?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
They're too distracting.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah. Would it be okay if they kept the phone
in their book bag and only had it there.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
For emergencies, yes, and with teacher permission.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Okay, that's a good compromise. That's a good compromise.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Yes, because I feel like cell phones create a lot
of bullying and it elevates bulling. But keeping it put
away during the school day I think would help. Well.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
And as a parent, you know, I give my child
a cell phone for a reason. I need to be
able to contact her sometimes and she needs to build
a contact me so in certain situations, yeah, they need
to be able to reach out to a parent.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Well, you are the best. Thank you so much for
waking up with us, and thank you for what you
do as a teacher. You are shaping little minds and
we can't thank you enough for what you did.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Yeah, the backbone of our future. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
All right, I have a great day at school, have
a great day.
Speaker 6 (14:58):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Hey, by bye. Should kids have cell phones in school?
One eight hundred and five seven zero nine six nine zero,
or head over to Gramby and Sarah Lee on Instagram.
Leave us a comment, let us know what you think.
Should they have them in school? Sound off? It's gramby
sarahly Gramby and Sarah Lee. Name it where you're calling from?
Should kids have cell phones in school? Sound off?
Speaker 7 (15:18):
My name is Mandy and I'm calling from Chester County.
I have two high school eight children. I believe they
should have their phones but off and in their book bag.
If they're bored when they get done with their work,
they can read a book.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
A men's sister, Do not pull that phone out, don't
get on social media until the school day is done.
But I definitely like having my son to have his
phone in case there's an emergency. He's in middle school
now elementary school.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Nah.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Yeah, definitely if there's an emergency, all for it. But
other than that, they're there for learning, not for their phone.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
That's right. Well, thank you for waking up with us.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yeah, appreciate you.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Yeah, thanks bike.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Sound off? Should kids have cell phones in school?
Speaker 8 (16:00):
Absolutely not?
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Name and where are you calling from.
Speaker 8 (16:04):
My name's Tina and I'm calling from Charlotte.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
And why do you feel like kids should not have
their phone in school.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Well, I'm old school. We all grew up without phones.
We all survived. I'm pretty sure if there's an emergency,
you can get a hold of the school. They can
get a hold of your child. I have a daughter
that is a teacher, and they are just a distraction.
Kids can't not use them if they have them.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Thanks so much for calling in, and thank you for
waking up with us, you too, You're welcome by.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
On the flip side of that coin, the evolution and
landscape of the educational process also very different, so it's
a tricky situation. Context matters. I like the flip phone thing.
I think that things brilliant, very brittin.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
All the kids are gonna be mad at us.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
I didn't even make flip phones anymore.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
I don't know. We will find out. We should pass
a bill. Go to eBay ninety six point nine to
cat sal golf, head over to Instagram as well. Grahamby
and Sarah Lee let us know, should kids have cell
phones in schools? Graham By and Sarah Lee back to school,
we continues, We are paying bills. I know that you've
experienced this. What was the most expensive thing when you
(17:11):
were getting ready and gearing up for back to.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
School, from the sneakers from my oldest son to all
the school supplies you have to buy.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Yeah, the expenses is real. Well, it's always special to
pay bills, but I feel like this one is extra special.
And I know that you relate to this, and I
think it's really really cool when we can kind of
absorb into the lives of cat country. Anthony Rivera from York,
South Carolina. He wrote in just need a little help
back to school, So if you can pay this bill,
it would help me out. Only looking for four hundred
(17:38):

Anthony Rivera, and a big thanks to our friends at
Lake Norman, Chrysler, Dodge, Deep Ram. We can pay this bill,

You have nine minutes. Anthony Rivera of York, South Carolina.
We want to pay this bill. Back to school photos
Graham B and Sarah Lee.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Times have changed. Kids actually look really trendy now when
you see the back to school pictures all over social media,
and things.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Have not changed. Because you were kind enough to share
a back to school or slash school photo with me,
and you were, I would like to say, very trendy.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
You were so me. My dad actually sent me a
text message of my picture is so hideous. And I
showed Graham yesterday and the first.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Thing I thought of was did your classmates call you Bernice?
You were an old soul. I saw that and thought,
that is the most mature seven year old I've ever
seen that dress?
Speaker 5 (18:41):
What is that?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Why would my parents do that to me?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
So I saw that dress and I looked it up.
I did use an AI engine because I where have
I seen that before? I put it into an AI
engine yesterday and it was the best selling curtain of
nineteen seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
I was even born then, So I mean, that's terrible.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
That curtain print was the best selling curtain print of
nineteen seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
It's like the curtain was mixed with the table called
I don't know, that's one trend. You know how all
the old trends are coming back that just will never
come back in style. But let me see your picture.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Grand dress has come back in style like four TOMPs
it's been around the block. Yeah, so I brought one
in because you were kind enough, and I sent it
to you. You can open your phone right now and pull
it up. You have access to mine. You did not
grant me access to yours. So that's my square, you know.
I texted to you, Yes.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Exactly what I said. Your mama would have you looking
fresh with a polo on. That looks like you have
polo or is that Tommy? He'll figure your hair is perfect.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
It looks just like your picture.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
No it doesn't. You are such an hare.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Let's post our pictures and have people vote.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Yeah, oh no, we're not voting. Yeah, we're not voting.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Honestly, yours is way more entertaining.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
He said, we're gonna put this on Instagram. Yep, mine's
going to be the second picture because we're going.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
To hide it. You don't have to tell anyone which
one is yours.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Hey, I might even take it down after fifteen minutes,
so you might want to check it out now. Because
I can't believe I'm being vulnerable like this. I have
never shared this picture. I don't even think my parents
bought the picture from school.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
It's that bad. I want to tell you something right now.
We are all in life getting through it. This picture
is not as bad as you're making it sound. It
is and it's worth It's honestly way cooler than mine.
It's the part of your story. It is for sure.

Tuesday and Thursdays were paying bills. It's ninety six point
nine the Cat. The wildest thing you're gonna hear and
or see today. Graham bin Saraily, it's ninety six point
nine in the Cat is.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
The end of the world as we know it.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Fine, I do not feel fine.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
This is terrifying turble fox. So we're gonna share the picture.
But this is real.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
That's not real.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
We're not making this up.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
It is so real is it? Deer?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Are Frankenstein rabbits taking over?
Speaker 1 (22:21):
That is crazy to me. That is the wildest thing.
I thought seeing your back to school picture was the
wildest thing I was gonna see today.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I'm gonna knock you out. So it looks like I
was eating or bitten by one of these rabbits.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
That rabbit does not That doesn't look real. I cannot
be real.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
So it's a virus. And these rabbits have been spotted
in Colorado and they have tentacle like growths on their face,
so it's almost like they have horns or antlers. I
don't know how to explain it. You really have to
see the picture. But they say do not touch the rabbit.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
That is instructions. I did not need you.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
People eat rabbits, don't eat this one.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
That's like when you open up the refrigerator and you
see a piece of bread in there and it's blue
and red. Yeah, it's just no, don't eat that.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Or lucky rabbit foot probably not a lucky one if
it has this on his face.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I bet that actual rabbit that we're looking at, can
you see it's feeding the photo? I bet it has
no feet because it is not lucky.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
I don't see that.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeh see it is not lucky. It is not lucky.
That's the wildest thing we got to post it. But
that's the wildest thing you're gonna hear today. Grab me
and sarahle It's ninety six point non the cat, ninety
six point on the.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Cat and the line to call for the compact.

Whitehall Commons?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Well, thank you for listening to us while you're working,
of course.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Well I'm on my way to work.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Actually I was suck in traffic. Well this is gonna
make your day better.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, And honestly, Charlie says this all the time. Sometimes
when things seem like their adversity, it's a blessing because
you're in traffic right now, But you get this one
trivia question right since you had a little extra time
in your car, you get to go see Chance Matthew
for free.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh gosh, okay, and you get those tickets before they
even go on SEALBA. First you gotta answer this question.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
Okay, hopefully I get it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Chase Matthew has a cover and or rendition of a
song named Joe Lene Okay, who is the original artist
that cut that song? And if you don't know it,
off the bat, Sarah Lee will give you a clue.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
Is it Dolly Parton?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Let's go clue, Let's go see your day just got better?
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Don't we love traffic?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Take that traffic?
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Take that?
Speaker 2 (24:39):
I Love Traffic.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Ninety six point nine the Cat. And the good news
is we're not even done giving away passes to that show.
We've got another set to give away tomorrow. Here's a
boozy good news. Great day to be alive. Travis, Trent Graham,
Me and Sarahly Why are you smiling over there? Why
are you laughing?
Speaker 2 (24:58):
I love throw Back Thursday, honestly one of the fun facts.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
And I didn't even know this until I met Travis Tritt.
I had the fortunate pleasure of working with him for
a few weeks in Nashville on a TV show with
Shania Twain. And did you know that's not an original
song by Travis?
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Do I hate when you do this to me?
Speaker 1 (25:15):
John Randall originally cut that song. Then Travis Tritt put
out his version, and when he sang one note of
that song, it became his song forever.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Of course it did. And I have the best Travis
Tritt story. One of the first trips you and I
took together was out to Dallas and what was the
name of that bar or club? We went to Billy
Bops Billy Bops, and they had this whole room of
guitars and all these fun little artifacts.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yeah, we saw Merle Haggard's microphone and Johnny Cash's guitar.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
It just all Travis Trit's guitar. And when we came
across Travis Trit's guitar, Graham was like, let me FaceTime
them right now. Granted is like one o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
It was not an appropriate hour for me to be
calling Travis Tripp.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I called it all on my camera. I am paparazzi
all day long, and I watched his grandpa and got
canceled and Travis Tritt denied, but he did actually text
the next day like, dude, I missed your call.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yeah I was asleep, but yeah, definitely on video in
the moment. And granted it's one o'clock in the morning
at Billy Bob's in Texas. Do the math on that
one that I did not realize probably should not be
calling Travis Tritt and I got denied in real time.
It was it was pretty funny. It's a great day
to be alive ninety six point nine and Cat
Hey, now it's ninety six point nine a cat. We
are one day closer to Friday. Thursday is one of
my favorite days of the week because one we do
pay bills and two we have a throwback Thursday, which
you know I geek out on, so I'm pulped for today.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And we also have Chase Matthews tickets. Last time he
was at Cody Joe's he sold out. Tickets aren't on
sell yet, but you can win them before you can
buy them with us later this morning.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
That's news to me. I didn't even know we had
Chase Matthew tickets a day.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well, yes we did.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Let's go. This day got even better. Grab me and
Sarah Lee stay tuned. 'shaotte's number one for New Country
Happy Thursday? Yes, what's the Carolina's talking about today? Sarah
Lee's top three?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Are you tired grand fun of hearing me say it's
gonna be another rainy day today?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
I am not tired of it. Actually, I've enjoyed the rainstorms.
I just want everyone to be safe on the roads
because I know it gets kind of dicey out there.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
And it's early, but there are already accidents out there,
and that's what I wanted to bring up. Leave early
if you have to take four eighty five outer loop
because there is an accident right there at Marker's se
near West Boulevard. Traffic is backed up all the way
to Wilkin Symboule Ofvard, which is exit nine. The left
lane is closed after Wilkin Symboulevard. Also, the left lane
(01:11):
is blocked on two seventy seven Interloop at I seventy
seven Exit one and traffic is backed up to Church Street.
So fay, wait, yes, if you can take a different route,
if you have to go that way, just know it's
gonna take you extra time this morning. As you know,
a lot of schools are starting back this week, there's
a lot more cars on the road. So with the rain,
(01:32):
with the extra cars, add extra time in your commute.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Extra caution. We're gonna play extra songs just for you
because we're gonna be hanging out in the car just
a little bit longer than normal.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
And I saw this on the TV and I was like, what,
Charlotte has been ranked fourth for tree hugging for tree huggers,
and like, what does that even mean? In a recent
ranking of urban forest that means the commitment to maintaining
a healthy urban tree canopy. We're fourth for that, so
that's a great thing. We're healthy when it comes to trees.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah, we're third once I start to register. When I
moved here.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And I thought it then people were actually out there
trying to earth and ground and hug trees. So I'm
glad to know what it actually means. And there is
this scam alert that you need to be aware of.
Tell your grandparents and your parents. If you get a
text message that's from a trim Health, make sure it's legit.
A lot of people are receiving text messages claiming to
(02:28):
be from a trim Health about a billing issue, So
think twice before you click the link. Maybe just call
up Atrium and say, hey, is this legit? Don't fall
for the scam and let them steal your money.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I am so glad you brought that up because you
saved me money weeks ago. I don't even know if
I ever told you this. You did a story about
a scam on the highway. Oh yeah, well I got
those texts after you told me about it, and I delete, delete,
They've got to track me down.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
This is real where they're like they scam your tag,
Yeah you.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Owe this me, No, don't fall for it. Sara Lee's
Top three saved me a hundred and seventeen dollars and
whatever that scam was.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, well, so just be cautious to make sure a
lot of elderly parents and grandparents fall for that. Make
sure to tell them said they don't get got on.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
The flip side of that coin. It is not a
scam and it's something that we look forward to doing
every single day. And today is Super Motocross Passes because
we are giving away a family four pack seven to
ten for Cat Fight ninety six point nine The Cat.
It is Thursday. We are Gramby and Sarahly. Back to
school kind of went rocky in sarah Le's household. It's
(03:32):
ninety six point nine the Cat.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So both of my boys had their first day of
school yesterday and I was so excited, and I had
one request from my husband.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Would you heard Because I called him, I saw it
in real time. I can confirm that you only had
one request.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Please take back to school pictures?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And he did. I mean I saw a photo that
he took.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I could not believe the pictures that he text messaged me.
During the show, all my friends are posting on Instagram
and Facebook pictures of their children holding signs. First day
a fifth grade and they looked so.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Amazing back to school outfits.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yes, head to Joe fly my kids. The pictures I
got are they're yawning, literally yawning in the carpool line
on the way to school. No full body picture at all.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
The one I saw your husband had half of his
face in the frame. Bear was in the car. He
was yawning. I couldn't see his outfit. You know, I
thought it was very candid.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Well, so then it gets better. I go to pick
my kids up. I get Bear. Now, mind you, I
spent hundreds of dollars on school supplies, and his book
bag was packed to the max.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
I loaded all the.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Things he needed, and when I picked him up, I
noticed that his book bag was pretty empty, so I
thought they unloaded. It turns out that my husband took
all the school supplies that I bought my son pulled
it out of.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
The book bag.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So Bear went to his first day at fifth grade yesterday,
brand new school with zero school's applies.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Graham, He's gonna be a cool kid. Every look at
him and say oh, look at him. He don't even
need trapper keepers.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
It was prepared, and he looks so not prepared trapper keepers.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Then it gets better. Cyan comes through the door. I'll
look at his outfit and I'm like, you look so cute.
And I noticed my son spent his whole first day
of second grade wearing his pants backwards. He got his
pants on backwards, which, if I would have had a
full body picture, would have been able to tell my husband, Hey,
Zion's pints are on backwards.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Well, now we know why you didn't get one. He
thought he was going to get away with this.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So that's how the first day of school went for
my family.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Yesterday, Well, you and I were talking about school pictures,
and a little bit later on in the day, because
we are celebrating back to school week, we're gonna share
some of our school photos.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Well, I say, mine is so terrible. I can't even
believe I have the courage to share this picture because
it is whatever you could imagine as bad as ten
times worse than.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
It reminds me, and I think you're not giving yourself
enough credit. It reminds me of one of my favorite
people on the planet. Your grandma, my great great grandma. God,
but I went and found I asked my family to
send me some of my embarrassing school photos. So I
have one for you because we're a team in this thing,
(06:19):
you see.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
But I know Mama Bunn and she always would keep
you fly, I know.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
But I'm going to share those a little bit later.
Hopefully supermotor cross passes. If a family four pack seventy
ten for cat fight, we are sending you for the
right price of free. It's ninety six point nine the cat.

(09:03):
Priscilla from Morrisville, Janney from Charlotte. We are playing for
a family four pack of super motor Cross tickets and

Speaker 2 (09:25):
This brand's golden arches are recognized worldwide. Janey McDonald's you

Speaker 1 (09:32):

This toy brand introduced Barbie in nineteen fifty nine.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Jamie Priscilla Jane Mitchel.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Too.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I had no idea who made Barbie.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Well, of course you didn't.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, but I made these questions before we do. Well.
Congratulations Jenny, you and three friends of your Tuesday are
going to see super Motocross.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
WHOA, that's great.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Let's go all right? Sound off to kids have cell
phones in school? It is back to school? Did you
send them with a cell phone? Should they have it
so they not sound off? One eight hundred and five
seven zero nine six nine zero Gramby and Saraily cell
phones in the classroom? Sound off gramm By and Sarahly
is ninety six point nine the cat.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Now. I have two kids, a ten year old and
a seven year old, and I don't like the thaw
of phones in school because I think a lot of
bullying comes from the cell phones. But as a mom
and knowing my son, I wish he could just have
his phone in his book bad not take it out,
only there in case of emergencies.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Were you ever bullied in school?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yes, all the time.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I was also bullied, so I am sensitive to that subject.
I do not have kids, so I can see both
sides of the argument. Very very tricky.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
The thing about it is, when I was younger, social
media wasn't a big thing. Now that we have social media,
the kids are being bullied at an all time high and.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
The platform for bullying is exponentially great now, and there's
so much younger.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
When I got bullied, it was more middle school high school,
but elementary kids are getting bullied. It's awful.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Man.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So I know cell phones do play a part in bullying,
but as a mom, not being able to get in
touch with my child in case I needed him creates
a lot of panic in.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Me, of course. Sound off? Should kids be allowed to
have cell phones in school? One? Eight hundred five seven
zero nine six nine zero it's Gramby and Sarah Lee?
Sound off? Ninety six point nine? The cat name? And
where you're calling from? Should kids have cell phones in school?
Sound off?
Speaker 6 (11:34):
Names Brandon Shall. I'm from Charitblee, North Carolina. No, kids
shouldn't have cell phones in school. The reason I'm saying
that is I'm a teacher myself.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I teach high school.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
Cell Phones are distraction. I think kids need them, but
they don't even have them off and away during the
instructional day period.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Well, first, thank you for what you do. I think
teachers are incredible superheroes. And I have two boys, one
is an enermy at school for the first time, so
that's a big school. And I, as a parent, was
talking to Graham. I like him having his cell phone
in his book bag turned off just in case there's
an emergency, but not to be a distraction during class.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Absolutely. The only issue with that is some kids, you know,
you ideally don't want them to use it, but if
they have it, they're going.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
To use it, then they're gonna get it taken away.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Okay, thank you so much. Bretti School. Do you teach
out good rest to your day? Cherbol High School? Go Iron, No, man,
let's go have a great day. Thanks for calling in.
Hey you naming where you calling from? Sound off?
Speaker 7 (12:35):
Miskey from Charlotte.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
I would say yes, as long as they understand that
there's the responsibility of paying attention to their teacher, that
they can have their phone. But like after their class
work is done, if they're bored, especially if there's an
emergency and their teachers can't get to their phone, still
call that office. Let the kids take the phone. There's
also like, my son did really good in eighth grade
(12:58):
with his phone, so when it comes to high school
this year for him, I know I can trust him
with his phone.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Amazing. Well, thank you. I feel the same way. Thank
you for waking up with us, Missy.
Speaker 8 (13:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Good to hear from you. Missy.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Every day, y'all, every day I've never stopping with man.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Y'all.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
We love you.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Yeah, take you. I have a great day. Ninety six
point nine to catch Your kids have phones in school?
Sound off?
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yes, I think they should have phones in school, but
they's a small caveat.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
It should be the old flip phone so they can't
get on social media or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah, that's nice, that's smart. What's your name and where
you're going from?
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Daryl Wilkins and calling from Indian Land.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Big shout out to all the razors out there, the
razor phones. I forgot about that cricket phone.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Thank you for waking up with us.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yep, absolutely, you guys have a good day.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I appreciate you.
Speaker 8 (13:50):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah. Bye, give us a call one eight hundred five
seven zero nine six nine zero. Sound off. Your kids
have phones in school? It's graan By and serily alexis
from Lancaster on the line. Sound off. Should kids have
cell phones in school?
Speaker 8 (14:05):
No, I'm a school teacher.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
They definitely don't have any business of phones in school.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
We got a school teacher in the building. Okay, why
would you use Is it too distracting?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
They're too distracting.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah. Would it be okay if they kept the phone
in their book bag and only had it there.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
For emergencies, yes, and with teacher permission.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Okay, that's a good compromise. That's a good compromise.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Yes, because I feel like cell phones create a lot
of bullying and it elevates bulling. But keeping it put
away during the school day I think would help. Well.
Speaker 4 (14:33):

Leave us a comment, let us know what you think.
Should they have them in school? Sound off? It's gramby
sarahly Gramby and Sarah Lee. Name it where you're calling from?
Should kids have cell phones in school? Sound off?
Speaker 7 (15:18):
My name is Mandy and I'm calling from Chester County.
I have two high school eight children. I believe they
should have their phones but off and in their book bag.
If they're bored when they get done with their work,
they can read a book.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
A men's sister, Do not pull that phone out, don't
get on social media until the school day is done.
But I definitely like having my son to have his
phone in case there's an emergency. He's in middle school
now elementary school.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Nah.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Yeah, definitely if there's an emergency, all for it. But
other than that, they're there for learning, not for their phone.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
That's right. Well, thank you for waking up with us.
Speaker 1 (15:54):

My name's Tina and I'm calling from Charlotte.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
And why do you feel like kids should not have
their phone in school.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Well, I'm old school. We all grew up without phones.
We all survived. I'm pretty sure if there's an emergency,
you can get a hold of the school. They can
get a hold of your child. I have a daughter
that is a teacher, and they are just a distraction.
Kids can't not use them if they have them.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Thanks so much for calling in, and thank you for
waking up with us, you too, You're welcome by.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
On the flip side of that coin, the evolution and

be real.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
So it's a virus. And these rabbits have been spotted
in Colorado and they have tentacle like growths on their face,
so it's almost like they have horns or antlers. I
don't know how to explain it. You really have to
see the picture. But they say do not touch the rabbit.

That is instructions. I did not need you.
Speaker 2 (22:55):

see a piece of bread in there and it's blue
and red. Yeah, it's just no, don't eat that.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Or lucky rabbit foot probably not a lucky one if
it has this on his face.
Speaker 1 (23:11):

you see it's feeding the photo? I bet it has
no feet because it is not lucky.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
I don't see that.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeh see it is not lucky. It is not lucky.
That's the wildest thing we got to post it. But

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, And honestly, Charlie says this all the time. Sometimes
when things seem like their adversity, it's a blessing because
you're in traffic right now, But you get this one
trivia question right since you had a little extra time
in your car, you get to go see Chance Matthew
for free.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh gosh, okay, and you get those tickets before they
even go on SEALBA. First you gotta answer this question.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Ninety six point nine the Cat. And the good news
is we're not even done giving away passes to that show.
We've got another set to give away tomorrow. Here's a
boozy good news. Great day to be alive. Travis, Trent Graham,
Me and Sarahly Why are you smiling over there? Why
are you laughing?
Speaker 2 (24:58):
I love throw Back Thursday, honestly one of the fun facts.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
And I didn't even know this until I met Travis Tritt.
I had the fortunate pleasure of working with him for
a few weeks in Nashville on a TV show with
Shania Twain. And did you know that's not an original
song by Travis?
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Do I hate when you do this to me?
Speaker 1 (25:15):
John Randall originally cut that song. Then Travis Tritt put
out his version, and when he sang one note of
that song, it became his song forever.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Of course it did. And I have the best Travis
Tritt story. One of the first trips you and I
took together was out to Dallas and what was the
name of that bar or club? We went to Billy
Bops Billy Bops, and they had this whole room of
guitars and all these fun little artifacts.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yeah, we saw Merle Haggard's microphone and Johnny Cash's guitar.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
It just all Travis Trit's guitar. And when we came
across Travis Trit's guitar, Graham was like, let me FaceTime
them right now. Granted is like one o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
It was not an appropriate hour for me to be
calling Travis Tripp.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I called it all on my camera. I am paparazzi
all day long, and I watched his grandpa and got
canceled and Travis Tritt denied, but he did actually text
the next day like, dude, I missed your call.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yeah I was asleep, but yeah, definitely on video in
the moment. And granted it's one o'clock in the morning
at Billy Bob's in Texas. Do the math on that
one that I did not realize probably should not be
calling Travis Tritt and I got denied in real time.
It was it was pretty funny. It's a great day
to be alive ninety six point nine and Cat
