Speaker 1 (00:00):
News.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
I know it's hard to believe, but there are things
happening in the Oh okay, I'll just tell you right now,
there's been movement. Yeah it is, and it has nothing
to do with the files being released. But well, of
course not. But you'll have to hang around for that
because right now we have something really important to do.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Very important, the most important.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Billy AD's new segment, how to Fix your sink. Go ahead,
you go go ahead, Billy. I guess it will have
to wait.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Well, we have April fool birthdays.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Oh, April Foles birthdays. Fine, April Foles.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
There's no segment. Logan Paul, Yeah, Jake, Paul's brother. They
got a reality show now called Paul American.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
I am reluctant to make fun of them now that
I figured out that they're on our team.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Well they can fight, wow, Yeah, they punch you hard.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Well, they could pretend to fight with Mike Tyson and
make a lot of money.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Logan is thirty. So is his brother Jake younger? I
guess so. I don't know. Yeah, they're as that was
the other one that fault than right, Jake. I think so.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Yeah, Yeah, they're young and a little dumb. But on
the other hand, they're patriotic and they voted and supported Trump.
So I'm gonna say the Paul Brothers are okay. Oh well,
now we got the thumbs up from Kenny. Let's go
to watch their show on Max.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Well you got something. I'm not an all American. Oh no,
I don't like him that much. Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
The guy that played Lawman Bass Reeves one of those
many many paramount plus you know Taylor Sheridan shows. His
name is David OYELOWO. Of course it is. He's forty nine.
He also played Martin Luther King Junior in Selma, you know,
not the original Selma from back in the day, because

(01:41):
he's only forty nine. They did a Martin Luther King
Junior movie. I know, I don't. Let's call Selma. You
should look into that. I thought that was a movie
about someone named Selma. You'd think Rachel Maddow, one of
Kenny's faves lovers, fifty two. She's going to celebrate her
birthday today by hating Trump. Yes, yeah, make it, and
you by proxy girls Gone wild guy Joe Francis is

(02:05):
fifty two. I know we're all.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Supposed to hate him because you know, the legal thing
or whatever. But I met him once and he was
very polite.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
But still, you know, he invited you down to his
place in Mexico where he is currently hiding to avoid
legal issues with America. To that point, I guess Jeffrey
Dahmer was probably very polite too, you know, That's what
I hear, at least when he first answered the door. Sure, yeah,
mister Dahmer, would.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
You liked it?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
No, you want to come in for some canned soup?
Let's have some soup. I'll put a pot on. Oh, no,
longer with us. Debbie Reynolds born on this date way
back in the day. Famous for a lot of things,
but mainly being the mother of Princess Leah. Is a
She had a great career in Hollywood, but that's the
thing my generation knows here for. Yeah, and then she

(02:53):
died the day after Princess Leah died. I guess she'd
no reason to live now. It's sad, but it's also
kind of beautiful there together. You know. Gordon Jump, who
played the big guy on the UKRP in Cincinnati, born
on this date as well. But most of this day
in history has to do with April fools, So I

(03:13):
caution you, some of that really not worthy of the
Walton Johnson Show.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
No, look, I get it's fair. It's what's in the news.
It's what you know, it's what was it that hated?
Where were some of the famous April Fool's Day jokes?
I'm assume one of the.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Ones they mentioned was in nineteen fifty seven. I know
you're going to think to you so well, you know,
back of the fifties, everybody was just kind of you know,
they weren't real, you know sharp. Can I guess before
you tell us? Was it spaghetti plan? Yes?

Speaker 2 (03:39):
It was, yes, oh yes, trees specifically, there was a
TV documentary about how Italians grow spaghetti on trees.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
This is from the BBC in England. They said the
winter was so mild in Switzerland that the spaghetti trees
were producing more spaghetti than usual, and they had pictures
of people pulling spaghetti strands out of tree branches and
people immediately started calling and asking how they can grow
their own trees. I love that. That's funny see that,

(04:08):
And the BBC told them what you do is you
place a sprig of spaghetti in a little tin of
a tomato sauce obviously, and that's how the tree starts.
Sure it makes perfect sense. Sure, but you know it
wasn't just like we were all rubes back in the fifties.
They did a lot of stupid April fool stuff in
the in the nineties, for example, that people fell for

(04:30):
as well. But other things happened on April first. Besides that,
President Nixon banned cigarette advertising on both television and radio.
That was to take effect January one of the next
year of nineteen seventy one. Gave them, you know, eight
good months of nine months to run with it, Okay.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
I think the concern was that children were going to
see those ads and it would affect them.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
But I don't agree with them.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
I stoneings rocky by pack of Winston's.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Please.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Of course you like them Winston Cigarette, so, mister Flintstone.
Oh but of course they really got chumbling, you bet,
you like folks who really enjoy smoking. No, it's what's
up front that counts, and that's where Winston steps out
ahead of the crowd with their exclusive filter, blend, choice
scoll in to back go wrong, specially selected and specially processed.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
I want it all.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
I always knew the Flintstones is being a kids show,
but wasn't it originally kind of like the Simpsons, it
was also for adults.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Oh, definitely. Most of the cartoons back in those days
are animated features were they were multiple levels, so you
peel the onion if you will. The Flintstones was basically
supposedly a takeoff of the old TV show The Honeymooners
with Jackie Gleason. And you won't remember that at all, No,

(05:53):
I get that. That's kind of what they were basing that.
On one of these days, Alice to the Moon was
that it Yeah, on this date in nineteen seventy six,
which was now forty nine years ago, if you can
believe it, Rush released the album twenty one to twelve
a lot of synthesizers. Wow, that was almost fifty years ago. Oh,

(06:14):
today's day. Marvin Gay was shot and killed by his
very own daddy. Another lady pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter
and got probation. Not cool by that, telling your dad,
I got a few here.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Seventeen eighty nine House to Representatives alex It's first speaker,
Frederick Mullenberg.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Where would American history be without Frederic Mullenberg? I don't know.
I'm surprised that one made the list.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
With the first House speaker today. In nineteen twenty nine,
Lewis Marx introduced the Yo yo to America.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Well obviously important today.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
In nineteen forty five, US troops landed in Okinawa. Nineteen
forty eight, the Berlin Airlift begins.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
All fun. Sure, all of those people had never been
on airplane for.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah, imagine that today today. Now does that have to
do with anybody's right about that? That's truchup Mat that
has a pretty big name. It's probably pretty exciting for
him today. No, he's right about that, and you can't
don't correct him, mister Ketto. Oh never mind today in
eeteen fifty four, and this actually does affect us today,
the US Air Force Academy is founded in Colorado, and

(07:16):
today that's where we keep Space Force.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
There you go today.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
In nineteen sixty three, soap operaates General Hospital and Doctors
premiered on ABC TV.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Then it was a thirty minute show, and then they
went up to forty five minutes, and then eventually in
the late seventies, General Hospital so popular. Let's go for
an hour and it worked.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
And we have some news coming up about the Panama
Canal in China. We'll get to that, but while we're
on the topic here today, in nineteen eighty two, the
US transfer's control of the Panama Canal zone to a
bunch of organized criminals down in Panama.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
And Panama say, that's for the show. They got the
canal after we went and dug it and spent a
lot of money and people died doing it. They said, oh, here,
it's our gift to you. And then what they do.
They turn around and I had to sell it. They
regifted their own canal to China. Yeah. Sup with that?
That's rude. It is kind of rude if you think

(08:08):
about it.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Actually, I think that was a mistake, you know, giving
free stuff to people that are adhering to China.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Oh, I know, y'all remember the name Paula Jones in
connection to the great Bill Clinton twenty seven years ago.
It was in nineteen ninety eight the Clintons found a
judge who was willing to dismiss Paula Jones' lawsuit against
then President Bill Clinton, saying her claims of sexual harassment

(08:38):
fall and I quote the judge far short of being
worthy of a trial she appealed, and he ended up
settling out of court by the end of the year
because it did not fall far short of worthy of
a trial. There was evidence that Judge apparently still working
today and doing everything he can to become more powerful

(09:01):
than the president.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Boy, if I didn't know any better, I would think
there are judges out there who are really just activists
masquerading as members of our judicial field.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Oh oh, you've given us something to contemplate.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
Yes, Pearl, Proulf is realized to us.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
They give us some candy, some chomping dumb and some
fancy storeboard.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Cookies, and some Winston cigarettes and some Winston cigarettes. Winston cigarettes.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Why certainly tat you, pearl. Winston is good smoking.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Sure wish you could taste it. I am tasting it,
garn it didn't you say?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
You mean you're getting it clean down there?

Speaker 4 (09:35):
That's right?

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Well here, pear, take another puff? All right, Granny, that's
what you call flavored. Well, please, this is the don't
go on this invention it ever was invented, It sure is, Granny.
I don't think I'll air for smoke anything else. You
always wear a smart one.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Winston taste good, not your cigarette head order.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Even they bring the Southern flowers gilla. They create a
magic lack a blues a path. Stay tuned for more.
Waltman Johnson. It's when there's a trumpet player in your
in your punk band, and then you go, this is
a song about I believe everything you say, Kenny, don't

(10:21):
think I'm doubting you at all. But I don't know
what ska means. It's this, This is what sky is.
You know. That's not a that's not a description, that's
not a definition, that's not an explanation. It's it's this.
But that doesn't help me. Okay, Hey, isn't there ska beer?
When we go to Purgatory. There's always something about ska

(10:42):
at breweries, and I'm like, I don't know what that is,
but it seems to be popular now. It's in the music.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Sky's a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the
nineteen fifties, characterized by Jamaican and Caribbean rhythms, punk rock, energy,
prominent horn sections.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Oh god, lock that anyway.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
The point is it's an upbeat punk rocks song about
getting aids that you could play at your wedding.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Sounds like a party I know, I'm gonna leave it
for y'all because I don't know if there's enough Scott
to go around. But what does that have to do
with beer?

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Nothing that most people don't get at all what you're
talking or you've made this even more obscure and confusing
than I did.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Are you familiar with Scott very much? Beer? And I
don't know if anyone in our audiences what is it?

Speaker 2 (11:28):
It's not?

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Is it Jamaican?

Speaker 2 (11:29):
If I had to guess, If I had to guess,
there was a guy in Durango, Colorado who loved ska
music and he needed to come up with a name
for his craft brewery. Uh, that would be my guest.
I was just there, or like, or his name is
Scott Kevin Anderson or say you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Or just Scott and you know, because people are like,
you know, so trendy Scot bruh, Well they do talk
that way Colorado.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
I did. There's people in Colorado that talk like they
have a calf weren't an accent, and they're not even
from California.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Where did you pick that up from? You've lived in
the mountains, gills. It's just so cool, all right? We
got news about Epstein. That's what you said. What's going on.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
One of the more famous Jeffrey Epstein accusers is this woman,
Virginia Jeffrey. You remember her, I've heard you say her name.
She was involved in a bus crash recently and the
police say there are no injuries. Here's where this gets weird.
There are photos of her online after the crash. I'm
just gonna show you a picture here.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
Oh, she looks very injured. Does she look to you
like she's not injured? I mean this is you know
what they look like to me? You say injury. I
think she got a bad sunburn and she peeled part
of it off and left part of it all in
her face. Now she looks like she got the mange.
She never have a dog with the mange. You don't
want that. I've never had a dog with the mange.

(12:51):
Billy I, it's so grossy. That's like poor poorer people
in four and third world countries of mangy dogs.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
But Bailly I, he's suggesting you're from a third world country. Well, clute, yeah,
it might be considered a accordinate. You know, the folks
that live in big city, they don't care for clute.
So Virginia posts this thing to social media where she
looks all beat up. She's on her Instagram account and
she says in the post she only has days left
to live.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
And police confirmed there was a wreck near Perth for
the record in Western Australia, and they said no reported
injuries as a result of the crash.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
There's clearly a contradiction here. Now Here's the only reason
I bring this up is Epstein driving the bus? Well?

Speaker 2 (13:33):
No, But then again we don't know, Okay, if it
wasn't over the fact that he died under such mysterious circumstances,
the fact that some woman in Australia got in a
bus accident, I wouldn't even bad an eye. She said
she's in there injured. They said she's fine, Okay, lawsuit stuff.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
I don't know. Is it possible somebody's trying to kill her?
And when does Jeffrey Epstein come into this.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
Well, someone murdered Jeffrey Epstein and then they said he
commit suicide. She's saying she's in terrible condition here. The
authorities down there say she's fine, don't worry about her.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Didn't that all seem so this is tied to Jeffrey
Epstein the same way anything that happened to me that
I claimed happened and somebody said didn't would have been
tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
The problem with Jeffrey Epstein is a lot of things
are now tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
If I said you went running in the park yesterday
and you tripped over a tree limb and fell, and
you know you were fine, and you showed up with
a skin me, I would say, well, this connects you
to Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Am I accusing Jeffrey Epstein of raping me? And was
I a prisoner on his eye?

Speaker 1 (14:40):
The point I was trying to mate you haven't You
haven't really leaned into the hole. She was accusing Jeffrey
Epstein of stuff you just told me. Her name Jeffrey
Epstein accuser. Isn't that how he started this whole thing?

Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah, but you gotta Virginia Jeffrey's one of the most
famous Jeffrey Epstein accusers.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Isn't that how I started this? You gotta say that
she was accusing him of something that they were denying happened.
You didn't being a prisoner on the island. Okay, that's
how I know, or don't you? Because you know this already.
When you explain it to other people, you just gotta
brush through all of the really important details because you

(15:18):
already know what they are, and you assume every other
listener will know what they are too, But not everybody does. Okay, Well, look,
I don't know who is on that island, but they
claim Tom Hanks was there.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Here's my impression of Tom Hanks finding out that he
was on Epstein's flight log.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
No, no, they have a record of my Woody. He's
pretty good.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
Now.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
A lot of you might be offended by that joke,
but I remind you he played Woody in Toy Story.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
You know, anybody offended by the ault not be listening
to this show anyway.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
You know, I'm glad you brought that up, because if
that did not affec, then you won't be too upset
about this bit about Oprah's menopause.

Speaker 5 (16:04):
But there's regular curiods, irritability, itchy skin, libido, changes, memory
laps in ludes, things chang during sex, leaflessness, I could
have sleep, weight game.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Everything is as dry as the desert. I've learned most
That is why we call perimenopause. The zone is chaos.
What about testosterone? Do you think I ought to get
a pillet because all these women are on palets and
then they wear their little husband's eye out if you
want to do it more? All right, testosterone? Very good?

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Is that stain coming off from her revolutionary conversation?

Speaker 2 (16:42):
It's not a big deal. But she did this menopause
TV special last night on ABC. And didn't she go
through menopause like twenty five thirty years ago. She's in
her seventies now, you'd think so whatever. I mean, you know,
there's no age limit on doing a TV special, But
it's just odd that all of a sudden she had
the idea to do this, right, I got to assume
there's it's.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Probably about her. It's never about Oprah. It's it's about
all the other ladies, you know, because she's a giver
and probably just a coincidence shed the giver become a billionaire.
Did somebody give it to her? Yeah, all the ladies?

Speaker 2 (17:14):
Probably the endorsement money, yes, yeah, I gotta think she
just got a whole bunch of it for doing this
special last night.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
You know, I'm proud of us.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
We've been through this whole show so far, and we've
only maybe once vaguely pretended to do an April Fool's
Day joke and then immediately said we were kidding. And
we've been in the air for hours now. I mean,
imagine how much stupid stuff's happening on every other radio
TV showed to think about it. Yeah, a woman went
viral on social media after she fell asleep on a
cross country flight and the guy sitting next to her

(17:43):
decided to braid her hair.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
She didn't wake up. Yeah, she must have been drugged.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
She didn't confront him. She didn't see it until she
got to her airbnb.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
While I was sleep on a plane, You come forth immediately,
you said, directly behind me. Some people might say, how
did you let somebody braid your hair? First of all,
when I get on the planet, I don't sleep.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
I hibername.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
I remember specifically, I'm sleep on the plane and.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
I hear and I said, who was taking pictures?

Speaker 3 (18:17):
And when I wake up, it's literally right in my ear.
That's where I found the braid. Don't touch people while
they're sleep, It's weird.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
I want to take a guess. I want to take
a guess at what I think happened. Uh huh okay.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Most people would watch this and assume that she probably
was her space was violated by this guy.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
No, that's not what I'm thinking, Billy Ed. You and
I are seeing an eye to eye on this. You
know what she did? Yep, yep. She threw that hair
over the back of her chair. That is now in
my face. That's my space.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
Billy D just pantomimed what it looks like when a
woman grabs. Pantomiming like what a mime does?

Speaker 3 (18:54):
You know?

Speaker 1 (18:55):
A nonverbal communication? No miming stuff up in here. You
just did it. I just showed you how it looks.
That's all.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
That's what that means me, that's what it means. But
we've all been on a plane and seen this before.
Like you're on a United flight. They got the little
TV there, but the woman in front of you, she
didn't want her hair on her shoulders because it tickles
or something.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
So it's funny. The smell of burning hair alerts people
much faster than a braiding. It's a great point, mister. Yeah,
so just watch yourself.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Boy, you really seem to have committed that to memory,
almost like it. They made me write it five hundred
times on the chalkboard. Really, it's a long time to
have to write something to tell me about it. Unbelievable.
I'm against it.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
But oh and burning hair does stink. It's just oh
so bad.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, but sometimes it's the only way you can cover
up the smell of bong water that you spill down
the carpet in your hotel room.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
I'm feeling you, don't you sure about that? You sure
about that? That's why Wilton and Johnson Radio Network
