That's how I know you're back. Just start talking someone,
they always do.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
If your boss ever asks you what you did today,
don't start your story with I woke up, because he
knows you woke up.

Yeah, you woke up, still not dead. Suddenly I was awake. Boom,
just locked it. Yeah, don't tell him that. Well, tell

And Bronson was in True Romance, one of your favorite
(01:57):

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, that's pretty much what he's known for. It used
to be really funny to make fun of foreigners.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
There used to be a TV show where you could
just make fun of people from other countries, and it
was on Friday nights and it was family friendly everyone,
but it was white foreigners, So I guess I made
it okay.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
A guy named Tony Goldwin is sixty five today. I
don't like him because he's the guy who betrayed Patrick
Swayzee in the movie Ghost. He thought he was his friend,
but he ended up getting him killed, which you know,
wouldn't have been.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Much of a movie without it, must still would have
been terrible. Yeah.

Timothy Oliphant, the actor from Justified, He was Justified, Yeah
he was. Yeah. I was just gonna say dead Wood.
Oh yeah, Sheriff Sheriff Bullock from Deadwood? What was better
dead Weather? Justified? Well, he was better than Justified because
(03:16):
he got more screen time. He was the star in
uh in Deadwood, he was just like one of many
Garrett care But when he was on. He was good.
What about next? Seriously? Is he good? Oh he's good

he's good. They went. They went head to head a
few times, though they tussled.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
He seems cool in real life too. You know he
votes the way we do.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah. That. Timothy Oliphant is fifty seven. Uh. He was
also in the Santa Clarita Diet, which apparently you guys
didn't even see.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Look, isn't that like the thing where you're not allowed
to eat brad or something?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I don't know. It was a horror comedy movie.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
You can eat brad as long as you burn the calories.
That's what my nutrition has told me. You just got
an exercise. You gotta walk around a little bit. Yeah,
keep moving. Buster Rhyme's birthday today too. He's fifty three.
I've heard in real life he's on the d L.
Have you guys ever heard that?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Nah? I heard that.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, I know some some black guys don't like when
you point that out.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I know choked Public Enemy.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Oh isn't Buster Rhymes gonna play O? J. Simpson's part
in the remake of Loaded Weapon?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Gay buster rhymes that that name Chuck d did. Yeah, wow,
how about that? His real name's Triple.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Really, that's not as good of a rap name. That
sounds like all that sounds like a white guy's rap name.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Bulster, that's the way to go. I heard, I heard
He's got you all in check? Is that right? Yeah?
Wool ha okay. Also no longer with Joe Cocker quite
a while back.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, you know that's sad too, because like he they
won't let him in the Rock Hall of Fame because
he didn't write a lot of those songs that he sang,
but like he tore it.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Dude, when you hear this, don't you get chills? Also,
another person not in the Rock Hall of Fame not
likely to get in Jimmy Stewart, the old actor born
of this date nineteen o eight.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Yeah, I don't think he's going to be in the
Rock Hall of Fame. I don't think he even played music. No,
not so much, so probably won't be. No, that would
make sense. It would be weird if they did. That
would really ruin their integrity.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, that's what it would do. Today is National High
Heel Day. And before you think that's just for the
ladies think again offensive. It's also National Streaming Day.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh, Billy d It's World B Day. The hell you say,
I know, get out of here. No, it's World B Day,
it says why so many bee stories have been popping
up in the news. In addition to that, it's also
Keish Lorraine Day and Pick Strawberries Day.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I love keish now, so that's it. I don't mind.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
A keisha Lorraine is bacon and cheese, right, that's the
good keish. If you had keys, what's in it? What's
in a kisha? Is it spinach? I don't want spinach? Yeah,
what's the one that's cheese and bacon? That's the quality keish?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Any other keishe? You just? I think they call that
the cheese and bacon keiche.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
And what's a keish Lorraine spinach? Oh that's terrible. Nobody
wants that all right. Today in history is probably brought
to you by keish Lorraine.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, or the Walton Johnson store, which we already told
you about all the cool stuff in there, so we
pre promoted it so that you don't have to listen
to it now. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
But if you want to know go to I LOVEWJ

And today, in seventeen seventy five, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
declared its independence from Great Britain.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Up years Great Britain. How'd that work out? Worked out?
Pretty good.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Mecklenburg County is one of the many counties that's no
longer associated with Great Britain.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
There's other ones too, Okay. I could tell you some
of them if you want a little further back in time,
five hundred and nineteen years ago today, whoa, that's a
long time. Yeah. In the year fifteen o six, a
enslaving conqueror named Chris for Columbus died in Spain, still
convinced that he had journeyed to the east coast of Asia.
(07:09):
Bro I will not have you bad mouthed Christopher Columbus.
That's my guy, dude, I know. I will not have
you be smirch him. He's a great American. He was
an important part of history, all right. He wasn't an American.
But that's besides the point. Because today, in eighteen thirty
put down that quill. Douglas Hyde gets a patent for
the Fountain Pen. Holy moly, now feathers are out. And
even though I know it's a liberal company, I do
(07:30):
like my Levi's today. In eighteen seventy three, Levi Strauss
and Jacob Davis, nobody ever talks about him, got a
patent for the denim blue jeans. They had the copper
rivets in it, and they had to move that one.
It was right here. Why. Well, because when cowboys would
squat by the fire to you know, heat up their
warm their hands or whatever, apparently that one copper rivet, yeah,
(07:53):
right here, right, just not there anymore, it would heat
up and then it would burn up very sensitive area.
I feel like that's something I would have known, and
I never heard that before. That's so one thing. It
can't be true if you didn't already know it. There
is no new knowledge for you to gain. That's true.
I already know all things exactly today.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
In nineteen twenty seven, Charles Lindberg takes off from Roosevelt
Field headed for Europe.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
What was his middle name, Charles Lindberg? Baby? I think
was his middle name was Charles baby Linberg. Yeah, nobody
puts baby in an airplane. What was his middle name? Well,
I don't know. But if you don't know, then nobody does. Today.
In nineteen ninety two, Chicago band's Large Markers.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
We had no middle name, or Kinny would have known it. No,
probably not. No, everyone doesn't need to have a middle name.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, they don't.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Do you every think it's weird how sometimes women will
give their daughter's middle name, will just be their maiden name, Like,
why would you do that?
Speaker 1 (08:45):
It's not really that weird. I think a lot of
women probably would prefer not to have to take their
man's name. It's a tradition that maybe has run its course.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Augustus Charles Augustus Linberg. But why didn't you already know that?
Why do you have to look it up?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Because I don't know everything. You feel bad what you
did today?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
In nineteen ninety two, Chicago bands Large markers cans of
spray paint. They were weapons of terror, they said, but
in reality they were just being used for graffiti. That's true. Actually,
I remember growing up and not being We would have
to go to the suburbs to get a spray paint can.
You could use them to paint things in your own property.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
But you could could, but they wouldn't sell it couldn't
buy it in a store.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Today, in nineteen ninety three, Closing Time, the final episode
of Cheers airs on NBC Closing Time, Do you.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Like that song?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Today, in two thousand and three, Jeb Bush makes the
orange the official state fruit of Florida.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
So that's a thing.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
And notice we didn't tell you anything that happened today
in twenty twenty because nobody wants to hear.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Well, no, nobody wants to talk about that. Today's the
day that Robin and Gibb of the famed be Gees died.
He had cancer and he was only sixty two. That
happened in twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
You know, that makes me sad when someone dies of cancer,
but not always, though not always. It either makes some time.
It either makes me sad or I have no opinion
about it. Oh okay, Yeah, that's good to know, because
we would never celebrate somebody getting cancer, even if that
person was the guy that tried to illegally inject you
and every one of your family with an experimental drug.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Now, for those of you who want to celebrate the
excitement of man made climate change, we have this little
experiment to deal with. First, to be Gees then I
mean it's Calmadmorrow. We're not a music show. You could talk. Yeah,
go ahead on this date. In nineteen sixteen, Yeah, Codell,
(10:38):
Kansas was hit by a tornado. Really, And then a
year later, on the same exact day, in nineteen seventeen,
the same city hit by a tornado again. And then
I know you think I'm making this up, but it's true.
You can look it up. In nineteen eighteen, Codell, Kansas
(11:00):
another tornado, one year and two years after the last
one in the one before that, Yeah, this third one
was the most destructive. It killed ten people, tore a
pretty good portion of the of the town there in Canada.
So nineteen sixteen, seventeen, and eighteen on the exact same day,
(11:21):
three years, three tornadoes. And it's all because of my
pickup It's all because your pickup truck. Because even though
I hadn't come around yet, hadn't even been born, wasn't
even close to being born one hundred and five six seven,
four years ago, it's still my fault. And I feel awful, belly, Yeah,
(11:42):
you should feel that I did. I do it. I
just feel terrible. Imagine what kind of damage you've done.
I'm gonna send myself home early today and put myself
in a time out.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Okay, So we talked about it here on the show
with management and everybody, and we decided that you shouldn't
do that.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
No time out for me. I'm out in trouble.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
You shoulda why you are in trouble, but you should
stay at work and work a full day shift. But
but we'll take some of your money and we'll donate
it to Greta Thunberg.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Well, now that seems fair. Yeah, yeah, you could average
stuff back for Donny Johnson at the studio. That was
my bad.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It was our sales manager at a birthday party yesterday.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I missed it. And then I actually came back here
and played pedophile music. Yeah, that was fund. You miss
it or did you just not go? I wouldn't say
we really missed it.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
I finished work yesterday and they said in an hour
that we're going to have a party for our sales manager, Paul.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
And Paul's a great guy. I really like Paul.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Paul and I are both Catholic, and we attended Ash
Wednesday Mass together this year. Mondays I go to church
and I, uh, you know, it's it's important to me.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's it's what.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
I don't have a family or anything, so I don't
go on Sunday mornings. I go Monday and I start
the week with the Eucharist and with God and all
of that.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I thought we were family. I thought you thought of
us family. Okay, come to church with me tomorrow. That's
why we argue so much.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
No, you're right, come to church with me. Let's go
to church. Does the rest of your family go? No,
they don't know. They live in a different state. But
so they said, in an hour, there's going to be
a party here Marty Groth theme party because Paul is
from New Orleans. He's as is a Louisianian louis Indian.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Well he's from Louisiana.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Yeah, he's one of those guys, Lsu Boy, Tiger Tigers,
all of it, Saints Fan, the whole thing. And so
everybody's dressed up for Marty Grass And I thought, do
I wait around for an hour to get drunk and
eat kincake or do I go to church?
Speaker 1 (13:35):
And couldn't you just get drunk right now? I don't
have to wait an hour. There weren't any alcohol, and
nobody else was drinking. Well, then leave.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It seems inappropriate to drink alone. So I went to church.
I was going to come back, but then I was
at church. But then you didn't. Milton ate twelve donut
holes last weekend, and I.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Was worried about him.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
He was a friend of ours was babysitting the dog,
and their eleven year old daughter let Milton eat twelve
donut holes, and so I.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
She thought it was funny. I don't think they wanted
him to do it on purpose. It just kind of happened. No,
I've seen him help himself to food before, even if
it wasn't for him, right, I believe it. Remember the
time he jumped up on the counter, well, I guess
he hit the got up on the trash can and
then jumped up on the counter and then tore a
bag open and ate all of his own It was
(14:22):
his dog food. It's not the first time it was
put up, you know, out of what we thought was
out of his reach.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Many times he's done this, He's climbed on top of something,
to climb on top of something.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
He's a real bastard. He's a little ahle.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
But anyway, so he did that last week, and he's
kind of looked bloated ever since then. I don't know
if he has pancreatitis or what, but he's like a
little sausage.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
He looks bloated around his belly.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
And he finally this morning, it was like like popping
a balloon or something. I took him for a walk
and he did what dogs do when you take him
for a walk.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
How many donor hold did he eat? Twelve? How many
came out? I mean, who knows both of it? They
don't come out individually.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
No, well, no, it turns out they're digested at that point.
And anyway, so it was like emptying out an airbag.
It was like, oh, he didn't look so blodd afterwards,
which is well, you know, yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
What squeezed him to get a little extra out there
at the end?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I tried, Yeah, it didn't work, but uh, anyway, the
point is he's fine. For those that are worried about Milton.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well, I guess we should talk about dead celebrities on
tour who died? Whitney Houston really yeah, Her estate has
announced a tour to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of her
debut and music.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Because I ignorantly thought she was already dead.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Yeah, turns out they're going to be having a show.
The show will feature original and remastered recordings and never
before seen footage and interviews. And it's not that hologram
thing that people are kind of disgusted by. But they're
going to have the corpse of her up there, so yeah,
(15:59):
that seems worse. It will include original, mastered, remastered, you
know footage. The estate says it plans to take the
tour internationally, which is where Whitney did a majority of
her concert tours throughout her career. Won't that be nice?
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Sho had to bring a like Anna to call Smith
on tour with her other famous dead people from back
in the day.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
That'd be fun, wouldn't it be great?
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Who is the big breasted woman that was a stripper
in Houston? Who am I thinking of?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Anna Nicole Smith? That? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:29):
That was Annaacole Smith? Yeah, you're right, bring her with sure?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Why not have all the dead, bloated old women that
died years ago on tour together? What would you call it?
Bloated dead checks? Yeah, but Anna wasn't a singer. Maybe
she could dance. They're like an interpretive strip to Whitney's music.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
All right, So you have Tupac up there obviously because
he was gay, So that would work obviously.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Well, yeah, everyone knows Tupac was gay.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
You would be there obviously, as though. I mean, that's
just a given. Sure you're gonna have Whitney Tupac, Kurt Cobain.
I gotta think sounds like a good concert to me.
I'd paid Who's this for?
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Exactly? It's to make money for the Whitney Houston Foundation,
which would be all of her family members who don't
have any real skills at making money on their own.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
In between snorting crack and smoking crack and doing insane things,
she really cared about helping the homeless. Of course, I
don't actually think she did. What about is Bobby Brown
still alive? Could he be involved in this?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Somehow?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Belief though, when it actually makes sense to have him
involved because he's you know, was her her boat boo
or whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
But there's some people out there that don't care for
him and the way he behaved. Okay, but Mike, wasn't
he really close to her? I don't know if he's
dead or alive.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
To be artest with you, I'd keep up with people
like him, Okay, So they smoked crack together. But other
than that, he was very good to her. I mean,
he didn't tell her to smoke crack? Did he did
he give her the crack?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
He didn't do anything to stop her. I and he
smoked it with her. I believe he might as she
might have provided it. Maybe she was giving him crack.
He's still alive. She's dead. You everything about that, if
we're right? Yeah, but she did you look him up
to see if he's actually still.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
I'm sure he's alive. She died in a bathtub of
a barbituate's overdose. So I don't really know that it
was Bobby Brown's fault at that point. But yeah, he's
still alive. Oh he does not look good, man.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Good.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
He's fifty six years old. He doesn't look a day
past eighty four. That guy, let's see. He married Whitney
Houston in nineteen ninety two. They had a daughter together,
and she's dead. That was Bobby Christina Brown. She died
of an overdose. It's really sad what happens to some
of these pop stars, you know, But anyway, I can't
do anything about it now. If UFO crashed into US
(18:46):
Air Force fighter jet over Arizona. Very terrifying encounter. This
actually happened. UFOs are real. For the record, that doesn't
mean they're aliens.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
It's just me, but has kind of come around admitting
that they hid that from us for quite a while.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
This is an actual news story today. This isn't like,
you know, something you'd find on some info wars blog
or whatever. So I mean not that that isn't real,
but a UFO slammed into a US fighter jet over Arizona,
cracking the canopy, protecting the pilot, and forcing the sixty
three million dollar plane to land. According to the FAA,
the F sixteen Viper fighter jet was hit by an
(19:25):
orange white UAS, which stands for uncrewded aerial system, better
known as a drone. Within a day of this collision,
there were three more unidentified aircraft sightings over the Air
Force the Barry Goldwater Range they call it WOW where
the fighter was damaged. Now, he's thought Barry Goldwater was
a cool guy. Did you know they named an air
Force base after him?
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Had no idea.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
It's kind of weird to name a base after him,
because it wasn't he kind of libertarian anti war. I
wonder how he'd feel about that if he was still around.
You know, that'd be like naming the Federal Reserve after
Milton Friedman or Ron Paul. This almost seems a little disrespectful.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
You know. No, sure, Mel Gibson and Danny Glover together again?
Do you remember lethal Weapon? Yeah? Of course and lethal
Weapon two? That reminds me earlier I refer to the
lis A Weapon three? Do you remember three?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Earlier I refer to the OJ movie as lethal Weapon,
But now it's occurring to me that it was called
loaded god.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Load of good. Now do you remember lethal Weapon four?
Were they both in all of them? Now? Mel Gibson
and Danny Glover will make legal lise a Weapon five? Okay? Well, yeah,
and Mel is directing. They got together at a convention
in Philadelphia over the weekend. I guess to chat about
how excited Americans must be for the reunion of those
(20:40):
cop buddies. Okay, So that was my first question. It's
isn't it a movie about cops? Right? And Danny Glover's
eighty and so I look, I'm not saying it doesn't
seem real estate. He's a retired officer, but still can't
give up, you know, that one case that dogged him
his entire career, and he's he's got his teeth sunk
(21:01):
into it, and maybe he and Mel Gibson reunite just
to solve that one last bothersome case. That does sound
like it's exactly what the plot line would. I mean,
you know, Hollywood, you know what sucks about that?
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Still probably better action stars at this age than most
of the other people in the industry, are true.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, you gave me this nine Mel for my thirteenth birthday.
I always remember what she wrote in the card.
