Yes, I got it. Let's go. I start with the
hard ones. Yeah, yeah. What blockbuster franchise features a swashbuckling
Captain Jack Sparrow? It's Captain Jack Sparrow. I think it
was Jimmy. Yes, it was. Powers of the Caribbean. Correct.

It's time to sound off cat country with Graham in
the mornings.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Irish goodbyes. Socially acceptable or frowned upon? Producer Hunter, weigh in.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Personally, I frown upon them.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Just say goodbye. Okay, what's the bare minimum? So here's
the situation. I got invited to something Saturday night. I
attended said event. The person that invited me was in
a what seemed like forever conversation. Now, you and I
have three-minute conversations. So anything that lasts past three minutes,
I'm like, okay.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's like a TikTok brain.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Come on, man.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
My brain. I feel like I've been waiting for an hour.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
So they were busy. I needed to go. I needed
to be somewhere. So I left. They text me retroactively
two days later and said, hey, why would you leave
without saying goodbye? So I felt like, oh, it was
a bigger deal than I thought.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Is it socially frowned upon, or what's the bare minimum
that you should do? Maybe eye contact, like the wave
salute kind of thing?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
For me, maybe try to get in their field of vision,
give them a wave or something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Maybe go tap them on the back, be like, hey,
I'm heading out. Now, I didn't do a circle. I
waited and watched the conversation, so I'm guilty of that.
I didn't make a ton of effort, but I did wait.
I don't think it's the worst thing you've ever done. No,
it's okay. Well, unfortunately, it's definitely not the worst thing
I've ever done.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
But, yeah, maybe next time just go tap them on
the shoulder.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Hey, man, I'm heading out. Are you guilty of doing
an Irish goodbye ever? Oh, yeah, I've done it before. Absolutely.
Sound off. What's socially acceptable? Is it frowned upon? What
can you do? We want to put you on gram
in the mornings. Phone lines are open the entire show. 1-800-570-9690.
But also at your convenience, at any point, you can
open up the iHeartRadio app. Tap that red microphone icon

We'll put you on the show. 96 minutes. Non-stop cat country.
Sound off. 96.9 The Cat. I never do this, but
I'm going to go ahead and give you your flowers. Okay.
I did something that you told me to do over
the weekend, and I was hoping you'd be wrong, but
you were right. Was I? You were right. Okay. So
I tried that honey barbecue chicken strip junior sandwich from Whataburger.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Oh, yes.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I loved it. It was good.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Yeah, they came to the office last week. Yeah, you
got one for free.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
That's right. I grabbed one before you could get out
of the studio. I didn't get a chance. Yeah, I
was up at that location on Mallard Creek Road.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
And so I was like, all right, I'm going to
try this more for four menu and I'll try the
honey barbecue sandwich because that's the one you said you had.
It was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
It was.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
I wanted to like kind of be like, oh, no, no,
you're right. Yeah, you're right. That sauce. It was good.

Time for some good news with Graham in the Mornings.
I need some good news. On 96.9 The Cat. Shout
out to Classroom Central. They opened up their teacher store
and gave local CMS teachers a chance to stock up
on free classroom supplies as the school year gets rolling.
(11:23):
We all know teachers spend way too much of their
own money on things like notebooks and pencils, tissues, classroom materials.
So it was great to see the community stepping up
and helping make sure that students and teachers alike got
what they needed for a successful school year. So good
on you, Classroom Central. That's your good news on 96.9

one thing i thought of if he got a spot

Speaker 3 (12:07):
Leaving the notes are good yeah that's a good note
yeah that's That is a good note.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Michael, are you ever guilty of it, though?
Speaker 4 (12:13):
I probably have done it a time or two. Gosh,
it's probably been years since I've done something like that.
Probably when I was in Florida. But I haven't done
anything like that of late because I haven't ended up
in a crowd that big to have to worry about it.
I have had to have done it. But later on,
I finally say, sorry, I had to leave. My ride
was here. When you're blind, you kind of have to
do stuff like that.

Time for some good news with Graham in the Mornings.
I need some good news. On 96.9 The Cat. Shout
out to Classroom Central. They opened up their teacher store
and gave local CMS teachers a chance to stock up
on free classroom supplies as the school year gets rolling.
(11:23):
We all know teachers spend way too much of their
own money on things like notebooks and pencils, tissues, classroom materials.
So it was great to see the community stepping up
and helping make sure that students and teachers alike got
what they needed for a successful school year. So good
on you, Classroom Central. That's your good news on 96.9
The Cat. It's 96 minutes nonstop cat country. irish goodbye

Good morning michael welcome to graham in the mornings we're
talking about irish goodbye socially acceptable where are you at
on this sound off if it's.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
A long conversation you gotta leave you gotta find some
way to kind of at least get his attention the
one thing i thought of if he got a spot
leave a note for someone to give him saying sorry.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Leaving the notes are good yeah that's a good note
yeah that's That is a good note.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Michael, are you ever guilty of it, though?
Speaker 4 (12:13):
I probably have done it a time or two. Gosh,
it's probably been years since I've done something like that.
Probably when I was in Florida. But I haven't done
anything like that of late because I haven't ended up
in a crowd that big to have to worry about it.
I have had to have done it. But later on,
I finally say, sorry, I had to leave. My ride
was here. When you're blind, you kind of have to
do stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Michael, thank you so much for weighing in. All good notes,
as producer Hunter likes to double down on. That's right.
