Hers soundtrack slaps dude?
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Check that out. Oh I've never heard it? What's just
sound like like this? Who listened to it? Right now?
Speaker 2 (00:11):

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Trivia question coming up shortly, But first the celebrity birthdays,
because I know you wanted to know. Is it Haley
Joel Ozma's birthday today? Why? Yes, it is?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Is it Haley Joel Osmond's birthday today? That's what I
want to know.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
You know, you must have a sixth sense about these things.
Come on, because he's in the movie. Do you guys
get it? He sees dead people, get people. Yeah, that
little boy is thirty seven years old, now still younger
than me. Daisy Ridley of some of the New Star
Wars she plays Ray is thirty three. I think everybody
(00:59):
thought that if I'm in a Star Wars movie, I'm
just gonna be famous, and it didn't really work out
that way. For these New Star Wars movies. Most people
didn't really, you know, jump into them like that, not
the way they did the first ones. Mandy Moore is
forty one. That's kind of a thing. Oh, Charlie Hunhum
Hunim is forty five. He played Jacks on Sons of Anarchy. Sexy.
(01:23):
Orlando Jones is fifty seven. Remember the seven up commercials? No, yeah,
you probably missed him. Brian Setzer of the Stray Cat Strut,
he's sixty six today.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
There was this short period in the nineties when swing
and ska was real popular for just a brief moment,
and it didn't last very long.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
But look at it just makes you happy, makes you
want to move. It was fun.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I mean, these they could play their instruments. They sing
without an auto too well. In Brian Setzer Orchestra's defense,
even though I was short lived his time in the spotlight,
he did have a great career doing Christmas music. Once
every year you'll see kind of like the what is
it called the Mannheim Steamrollers or whatever whatever. Every Christmas
(02:08):
Brian Setzer comes out, dusts off the old upright base
and gets a gig.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Sounds dirty, the Mannheim Steamroller. I mean, I've always like
some kind of like the Cleveland Steamer. It always seemed
weird to me, like a California blumpkin. There's something not
right about it. Today is Peter mcnichol's birthday, seventy one.
Here's that weird little guy. And Ally McBeal kind of
an odd ball. Steven Sagal is seventy three years old
(02:35):
now and he still lives in Russia with Putin. But
he also is a Buddhist Lama and a fourteenth degree
you know, red belt or gold belt or something in something,
I don't know what.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
An odd thing to be interested in Buddhism and Russian food.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah, huh. Jerry's mom on Seinfeld. These are no longer
with us, by the way. Her name is Liz Sheridan.
She was born today. Also John Madden, Max von Sidahl. Yeah,
he's a very scary guy. He was in Game of
Thrones and he also goes all the way back to
the Exorcist. He played an old priest in the Exorcist
(03:15):
and that was a long time ago. Good lord Well.
Also no longer with us. Harry Morgan, who was Colonel
Potter on mash And in Dragnet, the original Omar Sharif
Sheb Woolley, who brought us the Purple People Eater I'm
sure you're aware of. And this one Billy ed Oh,
(03:35):
I get to look at it? Oh, Don Meredith, Don Meredith,
well from the Diallos Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Boy, you are so excited to look at that. How
do you know he'd be excited about that, mister Kenneth.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Come on, I worked with the man for you a while.
You really let his eyes lit up. I don't even
think he was paying attention till you pointed at the
screen there. I wouldn't actually listen. I did hear something
about a one one orn planing Purple People Leader, though, yeah,
I couldn't find the song in our system, but that
was after doing it for It was a one one
horn flying Purple People Leader, and that's pretty much all
they did. You know.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
It's hard to believe, but that song was recorded right
around the time when psychedelics became part of the mainstream
here in America.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
He also did the theme to he Haul, and I
don't think he gets enough credit for that. I thought
that he Haw was Johnny Cash Bye he Haw. No,
that would not be correct. That's funny, though, you just
about made him made his head explook Today's National Siblings Day.
If you have one or more, you know, reach out,
(04:36):
show him some love. And it's National Hog your Dog Day,
especially if you just rescued it from the Saint Tammany
Parish animal shelter to keep them from killing They got
over two hundred dogs there. They don't want to have
to kill them.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I guess you could celebrate National Siblings Day by watching
that one scene in the latest season of White Lotus.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
No, no, no, you don't want to do that. Oh
you saw that, did you? I heard about it. I
don't look at stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
And today in history, what's today? Today's Arbor Day? Was
the first arbor Day? Wait, it's arbor Day?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Do you have any arbors at your house? How would we?
I don't think anybody even has any arbors anymore.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I can remember a time when it was Arbor Day
and people would talk about it all day. And now
people don't we even have an arbor Day song? And
how do I not know it was arbor Day?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
That's all plant a tree day. Yeah, that's a good one. There.
I never said it was good. Let's all planet a tree.
This says on a day.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
If you had to plant a tree while you were
doing Heroin and you knewed the perfect song. And some
people did, hey, do you guys have any Heroin rock
for Arbor Day? Well we've got this one song, all
right anyway, happy National Art. Well it was the first
Arbor Day. That doesn't even mean it's Arbor Day anyway.
It all started today in eighteen seventy two, and that
reminds me today in history is brought to you by
that'd be your law Tigers.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
In the Houston area, there was no motor cycle actually
early this morning upon at Eeshtex free why And I'm
just wondering, I hope that guy took our advice and
you know, reached out to law Tigers or somebody you
should have, you know, one eight hundred law Tigers because
they're on your side, all right.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
It all started today in eighteen forty nine, when the
safety pin was patented, the rights were sold for four
hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Somebody thought. The guy that invented it thought, and in
eighteen forty nine four hundred dollars was a fortune, I'm sure,
and he wrote, well, I'll never get offered more than that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
And today, in eighteen sixty six, the ASPCA was founded.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And here we are trying to get dogs adopted today.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And I do feel bad about shaming people into it,
but if I saved one dog, you know.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Well, we've had emails responding to that, and some women
even wrote in and said it sounded hurtful, mean, vicious, cruel,
but it was important and they applaud you for it,
because yeah, it is a horrible thing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I will tell you spend a lot of time back
in the summer at twenty twenty three walking dogs, raising
money for Citizens for Animal Protection, scoop and poop, doing
all the things you got to do to help out
shelter dogs. And we rescued and saved a lot. We
raised a lot of money, and I've just pretty much
been been riding on that ever since i've been That
makes me feel like Stacy Abrams all the time, such
(07:20):
a hero.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, just to hear, did you ever sleep overnight one
in kennles to raise money? Did you? No? I wouldn't
have even thought of that. People do that, though I
read somewhere. I don't know who was doing it, but
you know, they got them dog kennel places and people
will go in and they'll spend the night in the
kennel and try to raise money for you to get
them out. You know, I'm just like, Okay, I need
(07:41):
to raise a thousand dollars or they won't let me
out of this dog cage.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
But what if I hate the guy and I want
to spend money to keep him in there, Well, somebody
might like him sleeping in a Kennel's crazy. That'd be
like sleeping on the street, suburban street. I know who
would do that exactly, all right?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And then besides us, I mean today, Oh the unthinkable
Titanics that sail from England on this date, nineteen twelve,
and it was brand new. That was their first and
only voyage. They didn't do much after that.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Talk about a bad investment. Here's why that's interesting to
me today. In nineteen twenty five, The Great Gatsby was published,
got mixed reviews.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Some people didn't like it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I feel like The Great Gatsby as a book is
wasted on children. Well, many books are. I had to
read that book when I was in middle school. A
lot of people do. The book starts off about it.
It's about a wealthy guy who throws expensive parties. He
doesn't attend because he's trying to attract the attention of
a woman he's in love with who married another man.
(08:39):
Do you know how different that hits me at age
forty two than it did when I was thirteen?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Did you read it again recently?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
When I was thirteen, that didn't make a lick of
sense to me. It was wasted on me. Now, at
age forty two, I will sit and think about that,
and it just stuns me.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Did you learn anything from it?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
It floors me that there's well, yes, love is pain, exists,
insist pain. It's not shocking that people use drugs and
sex and alcohol.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
To mask their pain. It's shocking that sometimes they don't.
Do you know what I mean? I do. Life can
be as sad or as happy as you choose to
make it. If you want to focus on just the
sadness and the pain, there's plenty out there. There's also
plenty of happiness. You just have to decide to turn
towards it or away from it.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Mister Kenneth, that is a profound statement you've just made.
That's some of the best advice I ever got from
a guy who's never made love to a woman.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I'm kind of like Stacy Abram myself a hero. You know,
I don't feel bad about saying it about me because
she didn't feel bad about saying it about herself.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
And you never should. But you do lack that beautiful
British smile that she has.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
It's true, Yeah, that'd be bo. Today's Today. Sam Kinnison
was killed car crashed some drunk driving teenagers on a
desert highway. He was thirty eight years old.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Hey bye, by the way, today, in nineteen forty one,
we did something that should actually guarantee us to own
Greenland in no time. I don't think anyone's ever thought
of this today. In nineteen forty one, the US troops
occupied Greenland to protect it from Nazis?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Did they ever repassed for that? No, Greenland's ours. Oh
they owe us big time and the interest from nineteen
forty one. I mean, that's like the whole island. Now.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
We're running out of time here, so let's breeze past
Jackie Robinson. No time to discuss that. I don't think
it there, and who would even be interested?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
You don't breeze by Tiger Woods too. I give no
time for tiger Woods. On his fourth massles on this day,
twenty years ago that's all all right fine.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Nineteen forty seven, Jackie Robinson takes the field for the Dodgers,
breaks the color barrier.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
No, we ain't got time for the speaking of color. Today.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
In nineteen fifty three, the first color three D film
was released the House of Wax with Vincent Price.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Gary Player won the Masters.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Today in nineteen sixty one, excuse me, he won the
the Massles.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's correct.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Today. In eighteen seventy one, Ping Pong Diplomacy US table
tennis arrives in China.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Fun. They think it's a real sport. Yeah, they really
love it. Today.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
In nineteen eighty two, Saturday Live viewers voted to save
Larry the Lobster. I've heard about this, I never really
understood it.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
That's no big deal.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And by the way, today, in nineteen ninety five, New
York City's smoking band for restaurants took effect with more
than thirty five seats. I don't know how many people
realize this. Michael Bloomberg killed Eric Garner half So, Michael
Bloomberg is the guy who went out in New York
City and pushed that anti smoking stuff to the point
where you had the anti smoking Gestapo walking up and
(11:28):
down the streets. And do we all remember the story
of Eric Garner. Before George Floyd, there was Eric Garner.
He was the singles Lucy's they call him Lucy's. He
was selling cigarettes and some cop came up and tried
to arrest him. He didn't comply. Now that was his mistake.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
But on the other hand, does anyone really care if
you're selling loose cigarettes. They put him in a neck hold.
The neck hold shouldn't have killed him, but it turns
out all those years of unhealthy eating and donuts and
cigarettes combined together caused him to have a heart attack.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Eric Garner died at age forty three. Should have lived
if not for the fact that Michael Bloomberg hates black
people so much. He outlawed smoking not only in New
York City but all across the country. And you know
we did it on purpose, Yeah, just to kill a
black man.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I believe it. You are a smelly pirate hooker. Walton
and Johnson Radio Network.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There is some discussion of us possibly throwing a Cajun
birthday party for me in June in the Lafayette area.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Oh it's all about you, is it? Well, that's typical.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Well, that's not how they pitched it to me. But
the weekend they want us to go is my birthday.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh, we can't work on your birthday. Man, You've probably
got big plans, right, I have no plans, and I
actually plans at all.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
I actually can work on my birthday if there's a
big party necessary, if the party, if the work involves
going to Lafayette and eating Boo dan.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Oh and you would if you were.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And drinking beer and tequila with our listeners. Oh yeah,
So hopefully we can make that happen. We were talking
to somebody there right now.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Well, in the meantime, current news includes Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend. Her name's Jordan. She's twenty four. Matter of fact,
it's interesting, a good time right now to do the math.
She is exactly well, he is three times her age. Dude,
she's twenty four. He's seventy two. Now, in ten years,
(13:18):
he won't be three times as old as her, because
she will have aged much faster. She will be thirty four,
and he won't be one hundred and two. You don't
know that, well, no, I know exactly. He'll be ninety
two or less if he's still alive. Why don't you
believe in Bill Belichick? Have you seen how many rings
he's got. I'm not criticizing. I know you guys probably
applaud the fact that the seventy two year old geezer
(13:43):
is is mounting his twenty four year old trophy girlfriend.
I don't know if he's mounting. They'd like you to
think so, you know, maybe with a toy or something.
The reason that he's in the news, if she's in
the news, is because she is going to be competing
in the Miss Main USA pageant.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Now you probably think she's got an unfair advantage because
she's his girlfriend. But it's I have under good authority
that Maine doesn't even have an NFL team.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't think they do. Yeah, they don't have any
They do have a lot of fishermen there, and for
some reason, Jordan, the girlfriend, is trying to get a
lot of attention, you know, to do some good for
the fishing industry in the in Maine. Gold girl. You go,
it's important. Really, that's a priority. Dude.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Dude, look at this photo over on the screen here,
Look at her, look at him like, wow, Yeah, I
think it's great that they found true love.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
I just think it's amazing. Clearly they'll be around for
the rest of his life. This woman, this woman is
physically perfect. Look at her.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
There is not a flaw in her body. He looks
like Fred Flintstone's got a hangover. They're not the same.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Take a look at this one. Yeah, good lord, look
at that. He's fishing and she's a mermaid. He's got that.
I love it. Gloucester fisherman, the hat and boots and stuff,
and she's a mermaid on the beach.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
They're having a good time, Yes they are. Honestly, you
can make fun of the age gap, but she's a
fully grown woman, she's not a child. And they seem
to be enjoying themselves.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
So what, Well, they've been dating for two years, so
you know he was seventy, she was twenty two. Well yeah,
every year that goes by, they get a little closer
to bridging that gap. Oh my god. It if he
lives to be a thousand, she'll be right behind him. Broh,
just so close.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Bro he was old when she was born, well yeah,
she was probably old when her mom was born.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Yeah, and good for him, God bless him. Man, that's
just that's kind of fun. You can have out there
if you're extremely uh wealthy?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
All right, well, if you enjoyed the new season of
White Lotus, as you know, they're in Thailand. And on
that note, I ask you this question.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Is this fair?
Speaker 2 (15:53):
There's some controversy about this idea. A restaurant in Thailand
has vertical bars without dis counts, with her discounts ranging
from five to twenty percent off food if you are
thin enough to fit through the bars.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Oh when you said bars, I thought you meant like
a place to go get a drink. I thought that
too when I first read this. The in tree is
like a jail. Yeah, they have bars up and if
you can squeeze between them, well, what you know? Something
to be said for that. They're encouraging people to be healthier.
Here's some audio of it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Here's a guy trying fifteen percent and ten percent while
his friend jokes with him. He makes it through the
five percent range. I mean it discounts a discount.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
You know. I think you tried enough. I told him,
Is that your friend? Yeah? I told him you need
some button? Can you do ten? Hold on? He's doing it?
Oh my gosh, what if he gets seek dead? You're
good for five. She already said.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Okay, the sign above the normal entrance says full price.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Sorry if you walk through that. Here's my I've got
multiple sets of bars, and you can squeeze through the
first one and then they get a little narrower and
then a little narrower. If you can't get through those,
you don't get the full discount. Here's my question.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
The point of this is to encourage healthier people to
frequent the bar, true or false problem. Presumably the bar.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
The people that do frequent a bar, maybe encouraging them
to become healthier.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Now, anybody that lifts weights knows what I'm about to say.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
You're getting bulky.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Well, the whole thing about BMI bro Lately, I've been
putting on weight and I'm not and my waistline's not changing.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
It right, You're not buying new pant because it's all
up here. I'm just getting bigger muscles so you can
hide your feelings. That's exactly correct.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
I've been taking creatine, I've been doing the protein shanks,
I've been taking the glue tin and I don't even
know what glue tine is, but apparently all this stuff
is making my biceps bigger.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
What about brimer bull test tosterone? Have you got that yet?
I didn't even know that was a thing, But now
that you said it out loud, I'll get you some.
I need to get some right now, right this second.
Where do I get that from? By the way, speaking
of saving pets, as we were trying to do earlier
with the dogs at the Saint Tammany Animal Saint Timedy
Parish Animal Shelter, it's a good cause. A new study
is outset Having pets ups your happiness level so much?
(18:11):
How much? Does it? It is the equivalent of making
an extra ninety thousand dollars a year. Wow, that would
make you happy, right, that would? Well, adopting a dog
and saving its life will make you just as happy.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And I'm told if you don't adopt those dogs, they
could be eaten by Haitian migrants.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
We are the they're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs,
They're eating the pets in Springfield. This is the Walton
and Johnson Show.
Bro.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I know it doesn't seem like it, but the ben
Hers soundtrack slaps dude?
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Check that out. Oh I've never heard it? What's just
sound like like this? Who listened to it? Right now?
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Put the sign when you're making coitus later making who
gets the ladies fired up? I'll tell you probably not
Kenny would know. Probably not the kind of women that
would date me. But our our morning.
Speaker 1 (00:25):

Yeah, huh. Jerry's mom on Seinfeld. These are no longer
with us, by the way. Her name is Liz Sheridan.
She was born today. Also John Madden, Max von Sidahl. Yeah,
he's a very scary guy. He was in Game of
Thrones and he also goes all the way back to
the Exorcist. He played an old priest in the Exorcist
(03:15):
and that was a long time ago. Good lord Well.
Also no longer with us. Harry Morgan, who was Colonel
Potter on mash And in Dragnet, the original Omar Sharif
Sheb Woolley, who brought us the Purple People Eater I'm
sure you're aware of. And this one Billy ed Oh,
(03:35):
I get to look at it? Oh, Don Meredith, Don Meredith,
well from the Diallos Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Boy, you are so excited to look at that. How
do you know he'd be excited about that, mister Kenneth.

He also did the theme to he Haul, and I
don't think he gets enough credit for that. I thought
that he Haw was Johnny Cash Bye he Haw. No,
that would not be correct. That's funny, though, you just
about made him made his head explook Today's National Siblings Day.
If you have one or more, you know, reach out,
(04:36):
show him some love. And it's National Hog your Dog Day,
especially if you just rescued it from the Saint Tammany
Parish animal shelter to keep them from killing They got
over two hundred dogs there. They don't want to have
to kill them.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I guess you could celebrate National Siblings Day by watching
that one scene in the latest season of White Lotus.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
No, no, no, you don't want to do that. Oh
you saw that, did you? I heard about it. I
don't look at stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
And today in history, what's today? Today's Arbor Day? Was
the first arbor Day? Wait, it's arbor Day?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Do you have any arbors at your house? How would we?
I don't think anybody even has any arbors anymore.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I can remember a time when it was Arbor Day
and people would talk about it all day. And now
people don't we even have an arbor Day song? And
how do I not know it was arbor Day?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
That's all plant a tree day. Yeah, that's a good one. There.
I never said it was good. Let's all planet a tree.
This says on a day.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
If you had to plant a tree while you were
doing Heroin and you knewed the perfect song. And some
people did, hey, do you guys have any Heroin rock
for Arbor Day? Well we've got this one song, all
right anyway, happy National Art. Well it was the first
Arbor Day. That doesn't even mean it's Arbor Day anyway.
It all started today in eighteen seventy two, and that
reminds me today in history is brought to you by
that'd be your law Tigers.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
In the Houston area, there was no motor cycle actually
early this morning upon at Eeshtex free why And I'm
just wondering, I hope that guy took our advice and
you know, reached out to law Tigers or somebody you
should have, you know, one eight hundred law Tigers because
they're on your side, all right.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
It all started today in eighteen forty nine, when the
safety pin was patented, the rights were sold for four
hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Somebody thought. The guy that invented it thought, and in
eighteen forty nine four hundred dollars was a fortune, I'm sure,
and he wrote, well, I'll never get offered more than that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
And today, in eighteen sixty six, the ASPCA was founded.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And here we are trying to get dogs adopted today.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And I do feel bad about shaming people into it,
but if I saved one dog, you know.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Well, we've had emails responding to that, and some women
even wrote in and said it sounded hurtful, mean, vicious, cruel,
but it was important and they applaud you for it,
because yeah, it is a horrible thing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I will tell you spend a lot of time back
in the summer at twenty twenty three walking dogs, raising
money for Citizens for Animal Protection, scoop and poop, doing
all the things you got to do to help out
shelter dogs. And we rescued and saved a lot. We
raised a lot of money, and I've just pretty much
been been riding on that ever since i've been That
makes me feel like Stacy Abrams all the time, such
(07:20):
a hero.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, just to hear, did you ever sleep overnight one
in kennles to raise money? Did you? No? I wouldn't
have even thought of that. People do that, though I
read somewhere. I don't know who was doing it, but
you know, they got them dog kennel places and people
will go in and they'll spend the night in the
kennel and try to raise money for you to get
them out. You know, I'm just like, Okay, I need
(07:41):
to raise a thousand dollars or they won't let me
out of this dog cage.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
But what if I hate the guy and I want
to spend money to keep him in there, Well, somebody
might like him sleeping in a Kennel's crazy. That'd be
like sleeping on the street, suburban street. I know who
would do that exactly, all right?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And then besides us, I mean today, Oh the unthinkable
Titanics that sail from England on this date, nineteen twelve,
and it was brand new. That was their first and
only voyage. They didn't do much after that.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Talk about a bad investment. Here's why that's interesting to
me today. In nineteen twenty five, The Great Gatsby was published,
got mixed reviews.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Some people didn't like it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I feel like The Great Gatsby as a book is
wasted on children. Well, many books are. I had to
read that book when I was in middle school. A
lot of people do. The book starts off about it.
It's about a wealthy guy who throws expensive parties. He
doesn't attend because he's trying to attract the attention of
a woman he's in love with who married another man.
(08:39):
Do you know how different that hits me at age
forty two than it did when I was thirteen?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Did you read it again recently?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
When I was thirteen, that didn't make a lick of
sense to me. It was wasted on me. Now, at
age forty two, I will sit and think about that,
and it just stuns me.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Did you learn anything from it?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
It floors me that there's well, yes, love is pain, exists,
insist pain. It's not shocking that people use drugs and
sex and alcohol.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
To mask their pain. It's shocking that sometimes they don't.
Do you know what I mean? I do. Life can
be as sad or as happy as you choose to
make it. If you want to focus on just the
sadness and the pain, there's plenty out there. There's also
plenty of happiness. You just have to decide to turn
towards it or away from it.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Mister Kenneth, that is a profound statement you've just made.
That's some of the best advice I ever got from
a guy who's never made love to a woman.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I'm kind of like Stacy Abram myself a hero. You know,
I don't feel bad about saying it about me because
she didn't feel bad about saying it about herself.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
And you never should. But you do lack that beautiful
British smile that she has.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
It's true, Yeah, that'd be bo. Today's Today. Sam Kinnison
was killed car crashed some drunk driving teenagers on a
desert highway. He was thirty eight years old.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Hey bye, by the way, today, in nineteen forty one,
we did something that should actually guarantee us to own
Greenland in no time. I don't think anyone's ever thought
of this today. In nineteen forty one, the US troops
occupied Greenland to protect it from Nazis?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Did they ever repassed for that? No, Greenland's ours. Oh
they owe us big time and the interest from nineteen
forty one. I mean, that's like the whole island. Now.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
We're running out of time here, so let's breeze past
Jackie Robinson. No time to discuss that. I don't think
it there, and who would even be interested?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
You don't breeze by Tiger Woods too. I give no
time for tiger Woods. On his fourth massles on this day,
twenty years ago that's all all right fine.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Nineteen forty seven, Jackie Robinson takes the field for the Dodgers,
breaks the color barrier.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
No, we ain't got time for the speaking of color. Today.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
In nineteen fifty three, the first color three D film
was released the House of Wax with Vincent Price.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Gary Player won the Masters.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Today in nineteen sixty one, excuse me, he won the
the Massles.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's correct.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Today. In eighteen seventy one, Ping Pong Diplomacy US table
tennis arrives in China.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Fun. They think it's a real sport. Yeah, they really
love it. Today.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
In nineteen eighty two, Saturday Live viewers voted to save
Larry the Lobster. I've heard about this, I never really
understood it.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
That's no big deal.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And by the way, today, in nineteen ninety five, New
York City's smoking band for restaurants took effect with more
than thirty five seats. I don't know how many people
realize this. Michael Bloomberg killed Eric Garner half So, Michael
Bloomberg is the guy who went out in New York
City and pushed that anti smoking stuff to the point
where you had the anti smoking Gestapo walking up and
(11:28):
down the streets. And do we all remember the story
of Eric Garner. Before George Floyd, there was Eric Garner.
He was the singles Lucy's they call him Lucy's. He
was selling cigarettes and some cop came up and tried
to arrest him. He didn't comply. Now that was his mistake.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
But on the other hand, does anyone really care if
you're selling loose cigarettes. They put him in a neck hold.
The neck hold shouldn't have killed him, but it turns
out all those years of unhealthy eating and donuts and
cigarettes combined together caused him to have a heart attack.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Eric Garner died at age forty three. Should have lived
if not for the fact that Michael Bloomberg hates black
people so much. He outlawed smoking not only in New
York City but all across the country. And you know
we did it on purpose, Yeah, just to kill a
black man.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I believe it. You are a smelly pirate hooker. Walton
and Johnson Radio Network.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There is some discussion of us possibly throwing a Cajun
birthday party for me in June in the Lafayette area.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Oh it's all about you, is it? Well, that's typical.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Well, that's not how they pitched it to me. But
the weekend they want us to go is my birthday.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh, we can't work on your birthday. Man, You've probably
got big plans, right, I have no plans, and I
actually plans at all.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
I actually can work on my birthday if there's a
big party necessary, if the party, if the work involves
going to Lafayette and eating Boo dan.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Oh and you would if you were.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And drinking beer and tequila with our listeners. Oh yeah,
So hopefully we can make that happen. We were talking
to somebody there right now.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Well, in the meantime, current news includes Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend. Her name's Jordan. She's twenty four. Matter of fact,
it's interesting, a good time right now to do the math.
She is exactly well, he is three times her age. Dude,
she's twenty four. He's seventy two. Now, in ten years,
(13:18):
he won't be three times as old as her, because
she will have aged much faster. She will be thirty four,
and he won't be one hundred and two. You don't
know that, well, no, I know exactly. He'll be ninety
two or less if he's still alive. Why don't you
believe in Bill Belichick? Have you seen how many rings
he's got. I'm not criticizing. I know you guys probably
applaud the fact that the seventy two year old geezer
(13:43):
is is mounting his twenty four year old trophy girlfriend.
I don't know if he's mounting. They'd like you to
think so, you know, maybe with a toy or something.
The reason that he's in the news, if she's in
the news, is because she is going to be competing
in the Miss Main USA pageant.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Now you probably think she's got an unfair advantage because
she's his girlfriend. But it's I have under good authority
that Maine doesn't even have an NFL team.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't think they do. Yeah, they don't have any
They do have a lot of fishermen there, and for
some reason, Jordan, the girlfriend, is trying to get a
lot of attention, you know, to do some good for
the fishing industry in the in Maine. Gold girl. You go,
it's important. Really, that's a priority. Dude.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Dude, look at this photo over on the screen here,
Look at her, look at him like, wow, Yeah, I
think it's great that they found true love.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
I just think it's amazing. Clearly they'll be around for
the rest of his life. This woman, this woman is
physically perfect. Look at her.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
There is not a flaw in her body. He looks
like Fred Flintstone's got a hangover. They're not the same.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Take a look at this one. Yeah, good lord, look
at that. He's fishing and she's a mermaid. He's got that.
I love it. Gloucester fisherman, the hat and boots and stuff,
and she's a mermaid on the beach.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
They're having a good time, Yes they are. Honestly, you
can make fun of the age gap, but she's a
fully grown woman, she's not a child. And they seem
to be enjoying themselves.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
So what, Well, they've been dating for two years, so
you know he was seventy, she was twenty two. Well yeah,
every year that goes by, they get a little closer
to bridging that gap. Oh my god. It if he
lives to be a thousand, she'll be right behind him. Broh,
just so close.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Bro he was old when she was born, well yeah,
she was probably old when her mom was born.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Yeah, and good for him, God bless him. Man, that's
just that's kind of fun. You can have out there
if you're extremely uh wealthy?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
All right, well, if you enjoyed the new season of
White Lotus, as you know, they're in Thailand. And on
that note, I ask you this question.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Is this fair?
Speaker 2 (15:53):
There's some controversy about this idea. A restaurant in Thailand
has vertical bars without dis counts, with her discounts ranging
from five to twenty percent off food if you are
thin enough to fit through the bars.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Oh when you said bars, I thought you meant like
a place to go get a drink. I thought that
too when I first read this. The in tree is
like a jail. Yeah, they have bars up and if
you can squeeze between them, well, what you know? Something
to be said for that. They're encouraging people to be healthier.
Here's some audio of it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Here's a guy trying fifteen percent and ten percent while
his friend jokes with him. He makes it through the
five percent range. I mean it discounts a discount.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
You know. I think you tried enough. I told him,
Is that your friend? Yeah? I told him you need
some button? Can you do ten? Hold on? He's doing it?
Oh my gosh, what if he gets seek dead? You're
good for five. She already said.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Okay, the sign above the normal entrance says full price.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Sorry if you walk through that. Here's my I've got
multiple sets of bars, and you can squeeze through the
first one and then they get a little narrower and
then a little narrower. If you can't get through those,
you don't get the full discount. Here's my question.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
The point of this is to encourage healthier people to
frequent the bar, true or false problem. Presumably the bar.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
The people that do frequent a bar, maybe encouraging them
to become healthier.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Now, anybody that lifts weights knows what I'm about to say.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
You're getting bulky.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Well, the whole thing about BMI bro Lately, I've been
putting on weight and I'm not and my waistline's not changing.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
It right, You're not buying new pant because it's all
up here. I'm just getting bigger muscles so you can
hide your feelings. That's exactly correct.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
I've been taking creatine, I've been doing the protein shanks,
I've been taking the glue tin and I don't even
know what glue tine is, but apparently all this stuff
is making my biceps bigger.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
What about brimer bull test tosterone? Have you got that yet?
I didn't even know that was a thing, But now
that you said it out loud, I'll get you some.
I need to get some right now, right this second.
Where do I get that from? By the way, speaking
of saving pets, as we were trying to do earlier
with the dogs at the Saint Tammany Animal Saint Timedy
Parish Animal Shelter, it's a good cause. A new study
is outset Having pets ups your happiness level so much?
(18:11):
How much? Does it? It is the equivalent of making
an extra ninety thousand dollars a year. Wow, that would
make you happy, right, that would? Well, adopting a dog
and saving its life will make you just as happy.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And I'm told if you don't adopt those dogs, they
could be eaten by Haitian migrants.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
We are the they're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs,
They're eating the pets in Springfield. This is the Walton
and Johnson Show.
