Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's do it. We are grim in the morning.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
He starts now on ninety six point nine The.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Cat, Good Morning Cat Country. It's Wednesday in Hunt Dan
We're coming out of Darius record Comeback song. Fun fact
about that record, Chris Stapleton was a writer on that
in twenty ten, and I don't know if he had
officiently left the Steel Drivers yet to pursue his solo career.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
I believe he had.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
But the reason I bring that up is if you're
at work and you are building towards something, and maybe
sometimes you feel like you're running on a hamster wheel
and that you want things to happen and they're not
happening in the time that you want them to happen,
You're not alone. Stapleton one of the greatest vocalists ever
in the history of country music. He floated around Nashville
trying to shop music and songs.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
With that incredible voice.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
It was just as good, if not better, back then
than it is now, and it wasn't catching on. He
wrote that record, amongst many others, with Darius Rutger back
in twenty ten. Other artists were having to cut his
songs because it just wasn't his time yet, so your
time's coming, and while you wait, hang out with us,
listen to the good country music when your way into
some shows. By the way, we do have Luke Bryant
tickets you can pick up around six twenty five.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
When you hear crash my party. Just leave us a
talk back.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
You can qualify for those free tickets when he comes
to town in just a few days. But or right
here with you as you work and wait for that
big break. Ninety six point nine. The Cat's going nowhere.
We got your back. It's Graham in the mornings.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Is there a.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Difference between the responses thanks and thank you?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Graham? Thank you so much for asking me that. Guess
you're very welcome. Thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I wouldn't say thanks for asking me that, because I
think thanks is kind of cold.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Thank you is definitely the more genuine answer.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Overwhelmingly, I feel like everyone agrees with us.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yes, Cat Country spoke up. Let's play some of our favorites.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Let's do it.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
If you're going to take your time to do something,
let's take take you an hour to do it for him.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You can't take ten seconds and at least say thank you.
You didn't have to do that. I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Or to me that bird is on the line of
sending somebody get takes and just getting back the letters.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Kay, thank you, you mean something by it saying it's
just you mean nothing same. It's not as personal as
fans thank you. I think that there is a difference.
Thanks is just kind of like want and thank you.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
It's kind of like.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Sincere, what's the Carolina is talking about today? You were
Tom three on Graham in the mornings.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I'm ninety six nine. The cat, unicorns, the lotanus monster
in Bigfoot all monopolized my thoughts more than they should
as an adult. Well, someone at Starbucks is right there
with me. Do you remember that bright pink and blue
Starbucks drink. It basically shut down the Internet for several months.
I mean, every creator and influencer under the sun was
filming themselves drinking this thing, which, by the way, I
(02:42):
am one thousand percent gonna make producer Hunter go to
Starbucks and pick one of these things up. But if
you love that unicorn frappuccino drink, it's making a comeback
for one weekend only this month. Taylor Swift just became
the youngest ever musician inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall
of Fame. Well deserved, one of these prolific songwriters of
any genre in the history of music. Another milestone and
(03:04):
another trophy for her collection. And speaking of milestones, if
you are playing the lottery, make sure you check your
lottery tickets because tonight's powerball jackpot up to an estimated
one billion dollars. That's billion with a beat, nationwide drawing.
So whether you're listening to North Carolina or South Carolina,
you got a shot. Somebody's waking up a billionaire tomorrow.
(03:24):
I can guarantee it's not me. But I'm rich in heart,
you know.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
I know, right, you can go get the kids a
free back to school haircut at Arrow Haircuts at the
ball in Ballantine, August eighteenth, from noon to seven pm,
right in time for.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
School to come back. I want to try sneak in there.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I know I need a haircut, and a free one
will be real nice. Yeah, but if we were thinking
about yeah, but we were thinking about free, and we'll
do irresponsible answers only. I feel like haircuts are kind
of responsible. If you could have one free thing for
the rest of your life, what.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Would it be?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Sound off phone lines are going to remain open one
eight hundred and five seven zero nine six nine.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Zero free for life. What are you going with? Sound off?
It's Graham in the Mornings and we're on nine like cash,
hear you, it's time does sound off? Cat Country with
Graham in the mornings.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
If you could have one thing free for the rest
of your life, what would it be? Sound off? So,
for example, ninety six point nine, the cat has a
free back to school haircut. It's next week going down
at Arrow Haircuts at the Bowl and balance one. But
it got some thing of like, if you could have
anything and make it irresponsible, something free for the rest
of your life, what would it be?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
You said? Irresponsible?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Yeah, so we don't want like gas. Of course, gas
would be amazing. Groceries would be amazing. We want irresponsible answers.
The first thing I thought of tic TACs Tic tac
like the mens.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Like all of these tax mens.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Okay, I am obsessed with the little orange tic Tac
mints and I will eat them like candy, always have
them at home. If they were free, my teeth would
probably brought out.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
That is a great answer.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Okay, So would you consider haircuts responsible?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I would probably say that's responsible. Yeah, of course, because you.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Want to look nice at work, and there's so we're
not we're not taking haircuts. Yeah, even though you can't
get a free haircut, that'd be nice.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yeah, next Tuesday from.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Noon to seven at Arrow Haircuts at the Bowl and Valentine.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
So if it was me and I was given an
irresponsible answer, I would say truck accessories. Truck accessories because
you know, I went over to Leonard to get that
shit and all I kept looking at.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Was the lift kits, h the wheels.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
They even have like a tent you can put on
your truck.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Oh my goodness. I'd spend so much money at that. Yeah,
and you go camping all the time, So that would
be my answer. Shout out to my boys over at Leonard.
But yeah, I would say truck accessories. What is something
you would want free for the rest of your life?
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Irresponsible answers only. That's right, irresponsible answers only. Producer hunters
Riddle challenge. It's ninety six point nine. The cat haven't
been on us. I do believe that Producer Hunter is
giving away gift cards to one of your favorite restaurants
coming up or play alone. A police officer sitting in
his police car when he notices a truck driver going
the wrong way down a one way street, he doesn't
(08:13):
pull him over, he doesn't arrest him, he does nothing.
Why is that so a police officer SE's a truck
driver going the wrong way on a one way streak
but doesn't give him a ticket.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Or stop him. Why is that? It's Producer Hunter's riddle challenge?
Your answer coming up in two songs.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Somebody's gonna go to dinner for free on us might
as well be you.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
On Graham in the mornings.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
We really make you think it's Producer Hunter's riddle Challenge.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
On ninety six point nine the Cat, we got Eric
on the line.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
He's taken on Producer Hunter for a gift card today.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Awesome, Awesome, Eric, I can't wait to take you down
today because we have a pretty cool prize.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
You've been kind of cold lately, though, Hunter.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, okay, the cold streak is here, but I'm starting.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
To heat up a little bit. I can feel it.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I can feel it's gonna start today.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Eric, if your timing is perfect, Man, he's cold. Oh
come on.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
We got a fifty dollars gift card with the Yoko
Taste Trail in US foods.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Where are you getting all this money?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Man? Oh? You know, I have my ways, but it's
to the flip side restaurant down in your county.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Fifty dollars, Eric, if you can beat me, all right,
Well see here we go.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Eric. A police officer sitting in his police car when
he notices a truck driver going the wrong way down
a one way street. The police officer does nothing, no reaction,
no ticket, no nothing.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Why is that? Okay?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
So he sees a truck driver he's going the wrong direction.
Police officer does nothing.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I'm stumped.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Is because the cop car has just turned a different
way and the truck's driving the right way.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That's a wrong answer. This is what we're gonna do.
I'm gonna give Eric a clue. Producer Hunter, you're on
the bench for at least ten seconds. Yeah, a police
officer sees a truck driver going the wrong direction. Now
that's the clue. Going is the clue not specifying how.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
He is traveling? Yeah, all right, Producer Hunter, you're off
the bitch. The police car is going the wrong way.
That's an incorrect answer.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
It is, yes, I thought for sure that was it.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Eric, You win by default? Do you want the answer, Yeah,
might as well. The truck driver is walking, okay walking.
I never said he was driving. I said he was going.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Oh my, I thought my police car went wins so
smart too.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Oh goodness, he's been tough.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Congratulations Eric, producer Hunter the Cold Street remains intact.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah. I was real cocky too at the start of this.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
They did not go well for me. Uh, Eric, you
gonna take somebody special. I don't have anybody special in
my life, but I will.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Definitely find someone to take out.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
I appreciate you guys.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Ninety six minutes non stop Cat Country rolls on.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
It's Graham in the Mornings. Signed for some good news
with Graham in the Mornings, I mean the cat good
news for Carolina this morning.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Travel and Leisure just released its annual list of the
best cities in America. South Carolina showed out. Charleston was
ranked number two city in the entire country, beating destinations
like Nashville, New York. Greenville also made the list. They
landed in the top ten. That's a big deal because
these rankings they do help attract tourists. Then it creates
new business. People are looking to relocate. Maybe they need
(11:22):
their families here more money flowing into the local communities.
So if you've been telling friends and family how great
life is in the Carolinas, it turns out one of
the country's biggest travel publications agrees with you.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
That is a great one.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
What's the last time or if ever, you received a
professional massage.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I don't think I've ever had a professional massage.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I got one on my neck one time and it
was brutally painful.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
I haven't been back since. Really, yeah, I could probably
use one. Yeah, yeah, Stephanie. What's your go to?

tissue that you got, like the stones with the rocks
or something. Yeah.

just perfect. But hot stones are always nice. To Stephanie,

a win win for you. If you don't win, you
didn't spend no money on it, and then if you
do win, you get all that money for free.

Well, the drawings tonight, the lotteries up to the national
lotteries up to like a billion dollars.

like scratch offs, you can just scratch off as many
as you.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Wont Now she doubled down. She gave the responsible answer
as well. And she's in the same camp as you are,
she said gas. Yeah, which is very smart. I would
go truck accessories. I want rims and a lift kid,
a brush guard. That would be my irresponsible answer.
