Email address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. That's Uncle
henriyd iHeartMedia dot com. Today a national holiday, Juneteenth. I
(03:33):
hope that you have had a wonderful Juneteenth Day. Celebrating today.
Now I'm here at work. I don't like working on
a national holiday, so I'm going I will be out tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow,
I'm gonna be celebrating Juneteenth. Tomorrow I'm gonna be spending
some time in in both Mobile and Baldwin Counties. Just
(03:54):
I'm gonna have the theme to be just personal emancipation,
and so I will be personally in emancipated throughout Mobile
in Baldwin counties tomorrow celebrating June tenth. I wish I'd
done it today, but some things popped up here. But
I hope that you've had a wonderful June teenth yourself,
in whatever way that you've chosen to mark and commemorate
(04:16):
the occasion. Now, we have numerous things to get to
on the un Clinner Show. As is usual, you have
all the stuff going on with everybody wondering if the
United States is going to get further involved in war.
We've got we've got all the different stuff going on
a mobile. We had a couple of people jump into
the mayor's race. We may get into that later. Yes,
(04:38):
more people jumping into the mayor's race. Get into that.
I'll get into that in a little while. But there's
one story. I don't know if you've if you've heard
this or paid attention to this, this is maybe this
is way down on your list of things to be
upset about, but it really because of my age, my
(05:01):
personal demographics, this is just irritating me to no end
to hear this story. All right, I'll share with you
the brief story from Fox News. Fox National News. Social
Security and medicare not going to be able to pay
(05:22):
out full benefits sooner than expected. Here's Fox News is
Jill Nato.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
Last year, Social Securities trustees said they wouldn't be able
to shell out full benefits starting in twenty thirty five.
A new report says that's going to happen now in
twenty thirty.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Four, twenty thirty four.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
After that, Social Security would only be able to pay
eighty one percent of benefits.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Why did you hear that twenty thirty four? Bout at
the current rate, when we get to twenty thirty four,
those of us that are still surviving, Social Security will
only pay out eighty one percent of benefits.
Speaker 8 (06:00):
The report from the trustees says, you can blame new
legislation affecting Social Security for that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh, I can blame new legislation for that. No, I'm
sorry trustees that issued this report. I will blame all
of these freaks in Washington, d C. That are going
up there and getting paid to be representatives and senators
in Washington. That's who I'll blame. I ain't gonna blame
no new some new legislation that they've passed. This is
(06:27):
something that've been talking about for years and years and
years and nobody's not a dead gum thing about it. Instead,
they want to send more money over here. They want
to send more money over there. If anybody wants to
cut a thing up there, they scream like they're having
body parts cut off unwillingly. I know that some people
are into that these days, but they're screaming like an
(06:49):
unwilling body part has been cut off up there. Anytime
you try to stop spending, and here we are, they're
telling us, and if I'm my math is correct, less
than ten years that it would they would have to
reduce benefits.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
What is what?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
What is the priority list? Is there any priority up
there in the Senate, in the House of Representatives that
deals with the actual country. If we could just have
a two year period where we didn't send a bunch
of money anywhere else, could that maybe save it or
put off another ten years or something. Listener, I apologize
(07:29):
for being agitated. It just it just the idea I am.
I've always had a bit of disappointment with those that
represent us in Washington, in both political parties, but at
this point pretty much disgusted, still trying to figure out
who they really are working for up there. It's what
(07:52):
issue what is the one issue that you can never touch,
no matter what party you're in, you can't touch Social
Security or or medicare or the public just gets so
mad at you if you try to suggest any changes
to it, and they've let it get to this point.
Is it just stupidity? Here's a question. Is it just
(08:15):
stupidity among the Congress? Or is a corruption? Which one is?
It got to be one of them. Is there a
third reason? I don't know that there could be a
third option. It's got to be either corruption or just
incredible stupidity with these folks. You know, people talk about
(08:37):
term limits, which we'll never get. I'm at a point
where I'd like there to be a one and done.
You're up there for a term, and then you can't
go back or ever lobby or even go near the
district of Columbia orrever go into a federal building. There's
more to come. Yes, we'll get into other things. I'm
(08:59):
just just as irritated as I can be with these
dat gun politicians. Seventen Uncle Henry's show five twenty News
(09:30):
Headlines coming up in ten minutes from Fox ten and
Fox Radio National News. You'd like to call the show
you can two, five, one, four, seven, nine three. I've
got people waiting to talk. I will now. I will
now answer the phone lines for the benefit of me
(09:54):
and you the listener.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Hello, Color, Hey, Henry, how you doing this season?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Cliff Cliff, you are live on the radio.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Yes, they always say the first woman to do this
and the first woman to do that, but that in
the eighteen hundreds, we talked about black people, and one
of our black men bought his own his freedom and
(10:35):
he ran as what you call the VP because it
was doing Congress. Then he ran with a lady running
for office for Congress. Her name was Virginia Tuthill, and
he was stating that he'd run for anybody doing He'll
(10:55):
run with anybody doing right, but he wouldn't. He wouldn't
stand for anybody doing wrong. He also told his slave master,
you can come to my house any time. I'm not
gonna make you sit on the courch like you did me.
He had an understanding of God. If we ever understood
(11:20):
doing evil for evil, there wouldn't even be a Democrat party.
This is the evil that set up that we could
ever have. June tenth had nothing to do with the world.
It had to do with Texas. It was three years
after the massurpacing proclamation before it even freed the slave,
(11:40):
before it even got to Texas, because them folks didn't
want the black folks to know about it. So the
junior tat was for Gaveston, Texas. They don't never tell
you the whole history of about anything.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Well history. People would prefer to change history.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Hey man, Frederick Douglas, you never heard him talk about it.
He hated anybody. He hit the ground, run to kep going.
We got to be a victim for the left, his
progressive socialists. I'm understanding that everybody on the street, I
was thinking that they didn't have a job. But Uncle Henry,
those people are being paid to be out there. There
(12:26):
has nothing to do with us. If it's a black
person out there, they're being paid to do this. Who
is their right mind? Are protesting for Iran?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Now?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Think about that. You have blood, Dellgain, you have.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
A blush day to thank you, Cliff for your phone
call two five one poor seventy nine two seven two
three the telephone number here on the Uncle Leanry Show.
Hello color, Hey over, Henry, how you doing snake trapper?
Speaker 10 (12:55):
Hey over, Hendrey, I have a public safety announcement.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Hey, wait before you make your announcement, and I'm ready.
I'm so ready for a public safety announcement. I just
want to let the listener know that I'm going to
be out tomorrow. I'm celebrating June teenth Tomorrow. I'm going
to be out. I'm going to run a rerun of
the Snake Trapper Show tomorrow. So the time you came
in here a few months ago and talked about snakes,
(13:19):
We're rerunning that show tomorrow.
Speaker 10 (13:22):
Oh man, that's cool. Long An, I'm going to sure
be tuned in.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Brother, all right, now tell me your public safety announcement,
Hunger Henry.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
Over the past three weeks, there has been a uptick
in the number of armadillas that is being hit on
the Highway, three just this week along on Snow Road
between Airport and Tanner Williams Road. And the reason for
the public safety announcement, Uncle, This is a animal that
is known to carry a micro bacteria called lepi as.
(13:54):
About eighteen to twenty percent of them animals carry that
bacteria and it is known to us as leoprosy. So
I was reading a report from the CDC that said,
in the year twenty twenty, we had one hundred and
forty cases here in the southeast of Leoprosy, and since
(14:15):
then the numbers are increasing each year. So I'd just
like to let people out there know, if you know
of the nine banded armadillo, which is what the one
that's around here in the southeast is called, is digging
or walling or forging, avoid them areas because the only
way to get that disease is from handling that animal
(14:37):
or coming in contact of a surface where that animal
has been. So just be aware. And then you know,
I've removed one.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Last year old.
Speaker 10 (14:47):
It was in somebody's driveway that had got hit and
I just basically I tied fishing line around it and
just drug it down the dirt road. And when I
sped up, the line broke and it was you know,
it is off to up.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Wait no wait, wait, wait, wait wait a second. You
tied fishing line around a dead armadilla and then attached
the fishing line to your vehicle and you you dragged
the dead armadilla down a dirt road.
Speaker 10 (15:14):
Well, yes, sir, I carried it probably about a half
a mile down the road. And then when I just
shot the gas to it only twenty pound test line,
so it broke. But an animal like that is very
dangerous to be in your driveway or in your yard.
Did so because you can contract leprosy from it. It's
only about eighteen to twenty percent of them that carries
that micro bacteria, but people needs to be aware of that.
(15:37):
I mean, that's that's one of the ways to get it.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
So snake, Trevor, We've we've talked about a wide variety
of animals on the Uncle Henry Show in the last
several years. Of course, snakes, possums, raccoons, we have we've
not talked a lot about armadilla's. We have not. Now,
why do you think you're seeing all of this armadilla roadkiller? Is?
Is this an active time of year for the armadilla?
Speaker 10 (16:00):
I'm Henry there they are night dwellers. Uh that they
are very active at night and I've just h I've
just seen a lot of them being here. I don't
know if that's the reason for the UH increase in
lepsy cases in the Southeast, but that is one of
the known sources.
Speaker 9 (16:16):
UH.
Speaker 10 (16:17):
But there seems to be more of them, and that
may be why the numbers are increasing. Uh, I read
that report just this morning from the CDC. Have you
have you conned?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Have you eaten armadillo?
Speaker 10 (16:30):
I know, sir, I have not had not been that
hungry yet. But I wouldn't roll it down on grin.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
No, you can't. You can't rule it out.
Speaker 10 (16:40):
I'd have to be desperate, brother. But man, people, people
don't know what they will eat till they've been hungry.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Amen, that is true.
Speaker 10 (16:48):
Don't ever plan on it. Don't ever plan on it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Hey, well, snake trampers, thank you very much.
Speaker 10 (16:53):
Yes, sir, you take care of my buddy.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
You too, Thank you. And uh, if you want more
snake tramper, you can listen tomorrow when there will be
a rerun of the Snake Trapper Show where lots of
people called in and asked snake questions. That'll be tomorrow
here on news Radio seven to ten wntim Nella's Snake
Trapper checking CDC news releases on armadillos and leprosy. You know,
(17:17):
I don't Fox ten ought to have Snake Trapper on
at least once a week on Studio ten, just to
just to tell Joe Emer and Chelsea says on about
raccoons and Hawseum's and snakes Armadilla's. There is more to
(17:41):
get to, of course there is. Den Glenner's show continues
after the news break here on news Radio seven ten
w NTM. Uncle Show News Radio seven to ten WNTM.
(18:16):
Thank you for listening to the UNC Glennary Show. You
can also hear me on ninety five KSJ playing Today's
Hottest Country on ninety five KSJ. Now Monday, when I'm
back on ninety five KSJ Monday, I'm on the air
between ten and two there Monday at right after one o'clock,
(18:38):
I'll have a concert announcement that I'll be making that's Monday,
right after one pm. And also have tickets that I'll
give away to that concert event Monday afternoon. Run after
one o'clock on ninety five KSJ. Telephone number here is
two five one two three. That's two five one four
(19:01):
seven nine two seventy two three. Now, I've got a
lot of things to get to. There's one thing I
wanted to make sure I mentioned briefly the website wallet Hub,
which seems to be in the business of making lists
so that people will visit their website. Today. They came
out with their list of what they say are the
best run cities in the United States. They ranked one
(19:25):
hundred and forty eight cities to figure out which which
cities are run the best and which cities are run
the worst. And they had lots of different metrics like
quality of education, violent crime, unemployment rate, quality of roads
and infrastructure, local economy, pollution, financial stability. So with all
(19:51):
those factors, one hundred and forty eight cities, they say
that Provo, Utah is the best run city in the
United States. Provo u Tall. They say the worst run
city in the United States of America San Francisco. Now,
the reason I'm bringing it up is that Mobile, out
of one hundred and forty eight cities, Mobile ranked number
(20:12):
twenty four. Not bad. That is not too bad to
be ranked number twenty four on that list, and looking
at what they were ranking things on, I'm sure the
reason Mobile ranked so high is because the city of
Mobile is not in debt like not yet anyway, and
(20:37):
the local economy is so good with all the investment
in the local economy, So Mobile doing way better than Birmingham,
way better than even Gulfport Biloxi, better than New Orleans.
According to this list, Mobile is the twenty fourth best
run city in the United States of America. Now is
(21:00):
the list worth anything? Probably not, but it's still nice
to be closer to the top of the list than
at the bottom of the list for a change again
two five to one four seven nine two three the
telephone number here on the Uncle Invers show. Now, before
I dive into the other topics, let me say I
did get some voicemails. Earlier this week we had sixty
(21:23):
eight year old Chris of West Locksley talk about his
his Father's Day where he went to his number one
sons house and his number one son fed him steak,
cooked a ribba and a filet mignon. And sixty eight
year old Chris called in where they follow up on
(21:44):
what happened on Father's Day.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
So, Tad Huck Uncle, well a couple of things. First
ball inter did them to that call that I made
in regards to what number one fixes for Father's Day?
I left out the d third party candies, chocolate chip
ice creams mmm M goods was extra. What else I
(22:09):
called you about was a bit of an issue on
my hands. Here Rita, she likes the music she's in
the choir elementary school choir, Robert Stale. She's a good singer.
Ain't nothing like her, old man, but she and she
listens to different talks of music. The other day she
blugged in some sixties music, some Dion and whoa.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Your your Now? Your daughter in elementary school is listening
to Dion from the sixties, not Seline Dion. You're talking
about actual Dion.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I think there was. I think she was listening to
some Supremes and all that, and I'm right round her
for that. But one of the artists that she's really
getting kind of infatuated with is Madonna.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
I know, I didn't like her back in the dead
lay eighties and I still don't like her. And I
tried to explain to her what her music, what it
is she's singing about. Remember now she's ten and a half.
Any help, any advice, you can give me anything, anything.
I'm wide of im al Ear's brother.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Sixty eight year old Chris, thank you for your voicemail
and sharing this difficulty you're having now that you're you're
ten and a half year old, is becoming infatuated with
Madonna music? That is something to be concerned about because
demon Madonna is demonic. In my opinion, that's a personal opinion.
I believe it's very demonic some of the music that
(23:37):
she is singing and all that kind of stuff. Now,
I didn't right raise a girl, So I don't know what.
I really don't know what to tell you, other than
you can patiently explain the satanistic nature of Madonna and
how it could destroy your daughter's soul if she continues
to sing the Madonna songs. Now, I would try and stea,
(24:00):
I try to switch her over to some some more
wholesome music. There's always, uh the music of Dolly Parton,
that you could switch her over to. Dolly Parton universally
loved in our country. Modern day musicians like Landy Wilson.
Landy Wilson very popular with young women in the country,
(24:22):
especially in the South. But I wish I had better
advice for you, But I did not raise a child.
All you can do is just tell her the truth
as much as you can tell her the truth, let
her know what she's dealing with, and go from there,
all right. Two five one four seven nine two seven
two three The telephone number, Hello.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Color, Uncle Henry, Steve how are.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
You, Stephen Breling. You are live on the radio.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
I heard you talking about that list of best run
cities and we will be in twenty four. Yeah, the
article on I was Channel ten, Channel five, one of
the local news places and looking on a comminentce section
and the amount of folks hyperventilating over that talking about
how you know that's a lie ain't true. There ain't
(25:10):
no way. I think folks need to, uh remember back
the state this place was in when Sam Jones left
the city for Sandy got in and we were on
the We're we're basically bankrupt, you know. I mean it's
the infrastructure was crumbling and that has been turned around.
(25:30):
It ain't perfect. There's plenty of opportunity to you know,
for you know, for improvement, but it's way better than
it was. I think I think there's just some folks
out there who just have such a i don't know,
hatred of some of our current city leaders that they're
just blind to the good things that are going on.
And I think folks need to just take a step
back and you know, maybe take a breath, well and
(25:52):
and remember where we came from.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Well yeah, well, and it may not be hatred for
currency leaders. That just may be short term memory. You know,
that's over ten years ago that it was in this
horrible shape. But the local economy has just skyrocketed dramatically
with billions of dollars being invested both private and public
(26:15):
on the Gulf Coast. So our local economy is doing
better than really anywhere in the region. And there's lots
of stats that back that up that show the Mobile's
economy is outpacing the national economy, no doubt about it.
We're just doing better with their local economy and the
financial state of the city. You correctly pointed out that
we were. We were in terrible financial straits. They could
(26:38):
not afford to upgrade any infrastructure at all in the
city because they needed the money just to keep the
lights on it government plaza, and keep keep people paid.
There were public officials that admitted publicly that they pushed
for annexation just to get the money to run the city,
not to grow the city. They just needed the cash. So, yes,
(27:00):
a lot of people have a very short memory of
how how the financial situation in the city was terrible
back in those days. It was.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
Yeah, I think I think when once Handy got in
there was like a two hundred and some odd million
dollars worth of long term debt that we were on
to look forward that that think that'll be paid off
in the next couple of years. And I think the
police and fire pension was severely underwater, and that is
I think it's just about fully funded now. I mean
those two things along is massive. So don's just need
(27:32):
to remember where we came from.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Hey, I agree completely, Steven Brillan, Thank you. That's great day,
you too. There's a more show to come after the break.
Seventy Uncle Henry Scholder's Radio seventy ten WNTM. It is

Speaker 9 (28:31):
And I just called. I just said I hadn't talked
with you in a while, and I just thought about
some of them old classic rock shows such as twenty five,
twenty five your man, see it would be a lie.
It's just something to think about. Yeah, that was and
the song, uh Time of the Baller. Yeah, yeah, and
(28:56):
it was just something to think about and that, you know,
and that other one, Spin the Wheels by Blood, Sweat
and Tears.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
You know, I hadn't I hadn't thought about that or
heard about that in years.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
I know that that first one I talked about it
come back. It was a classic in nineteen sixty nine. Yep,
it went to the top. Anytime you could put some
and they go to the top of the chart. You
done good, that's right? Uh uh Fleetwood mag Uh the
(29:31):
Rolling Songs, I mean they put that. Uh. I can't
get no satisfaction. They sold two hundred copies of it
and they they went to the top of the chart.
The closest person was next to them with Michael Jackson
with Thriller. That's a lot of music, Unkle Hendrick.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
That is a lot of music.
Speaker 9 (29:51):
Yeah, And and uh, that was that original though, I
can't get no satisfaction. I'm the original, the oldest had
the song that, uh, the Rolling Songs redd Over.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I didn't know that. I didn't know that. Yeah, I
bet Otis Redding was way better than the Rolling Stones
on that it.
Speaker 9 (30:12):
Could have been. But I mean, but this song they
took from him and remade it over. They got it.
Look at the Beatles when they come here. The Who's
out did California? They had a last country out there
by seventy nine. Whether there's something and and they Drew
(30:34):
Drew Uh had sixty nine thousand people are more in
the sands and these kicking was over five hundred, five
hundred dollars a more for the the guess who's I know?
You've heard 'em? Oh yeah, all them groups and a
lot of them was great. Uncle Andrew, You've.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
You've lived through a lot, haven't you.
Speaker 9 (30:57):
Yes, I just think my suburb he letting me see it,
and I'm seeing just thinking as I've been here, a
lot of good music was sung back. And now I
tell your song right now it is old, but it
come out in set seven and it got it got

a the marking of trade wind We are in the

I'm gonna have to look up it says, I'm gonna, yeah,
I'm gonna have to listen to some Yeah.
Speaker 9 (31:51):
He was, he was bad, and he the one of
his best. Have you seen old dollar Green? Yes, at
everybody looking for and trying to find them so they
can get what they need.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
That's right. That hadn't changed. That hadn't changed, hasn't.
Speaker 9 (32:09):
No, it won't change, because said, if you ain't got it,
you can't get what you need. You got to have
somewhere to stay. You gotta have transportation and everything we do,
you got to keep it up.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Well, David, I'm delighted that you were you're still around her,
that you called the show. I love to hearing from you.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
Yeah, well it's good. I've been listening a lot sometime.
I called in. I hell, I just lately I just
took a break for a while, and I just said
I would go see what's going on. And I still
got music in my head. But I I guess when
they put me in the ground that they could pick
(32:52):
I'd wake up with her.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
So well, that'd be a great way to wake up.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Okay, you take care, good talking and I do with
you later.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
All right, Good, Thank you, Dave. Always great to It's
been a long time since Dave called in, and I've
had some wonderful through the years that I can remember
having wonderful conversations with Dave on The Uncle Henry Show.
There's great live conversations about a variety of topics, both
serious and not so serious. So Dave, thank you. Just
(33:24):
I'm just grateful to hear it that Dave is still
with us and out there and could contribute some of
his memories and as Dave can probably help us put
some modern events into context with all of that knowledge.
He's got all right out of time for this hour
of show, but there's more coming up after the news break.
(33:47):
Here on News Radio seven ten WNTM. Tomorrow, I'll be
celebrating June tenth tomorrow, taking a day off off, I
will be running a rerun of The Uncle Henry Show
tomorrow featuring Snake Trapper in studio with lots of snake calls.
(34:13):
That's tomorrow on the Uncle Henry Show. It says the
(34:37):
Uncle Henry Show here on News Radio seventy ten wnt hey,
thank you for listening. I do appreciate you listening to
The Uncle Henry Show. It's one of them days. I
love having a job, just a free air conditioning alone. Yeah,
I've got a place to get some free air conditioning
here with a job. Now, in this half hour of
(35:02):
Uncle Henry Show, going to check some news items and
share them with you and with me. Maybe I'll have
time for more raccoon voicemail. First, let's check a story.
This has to do with the law in Alabama about
(35:24):
not being able to use your phone. We have a
hands free law in Alabama. Now does anybody does anybody?
Does anybody abide by this law? The people around me
and their vehicles don't seem to be abiding with this law.
(35:45):
I still see a lot of phones in hands around me.
I've got a news story about this for you and
me to listen to. This is a story from w
s f A in Montgomery stepsister station t w ALA,
Fox ten, where they're going to report on the current
state of hands free driving in the state of Alabama.
Speaker 11 (36:09):
Learning more about the impact of Alabama's hands free driving law.
Speaker 6 (36:13):
The state legislature passed the ban on mobile devices while
driving in twenty twenty.
Speaker 11 (36:18):
Three the goal to make our road safer. Wsa faes
while news anchor Rosemne.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I'm sure to interrupt the story before it starts. Have
you ever heard of anybody getting in trouble for it?
Have you let me know? Leave me a message? Two
five's one two one six nineteen seventy six. That's two
five one two one six, nineteen seventy six, to leave
me a message for the Uncle Henry Show.
Speaker 11 (36:47):
Santa Smith spoke with the mother who helped push for
the law after losing her daughter in a distracted driving accident.
She's joining us live right now. Rosanna tell us more.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
Is illegal to hold your phone or any other electronic
device while you are driving in Alabama.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
And we spoke to that. It's illegal. I'm sorry to
stop it again. It's illegal. In case you didn't know this,
why you're driving. You cannot hold your phone in your hand.
You're not allowed to. You're breaking the law of the land.
It's the law of the land, and you're breaking it
when you got your smartphone in your hand. And she
said any other electric electronic device. Now, I haven't looked
(37:31):
at the law myself. Now, would that be like an
iPad or something, or would this go into the would
electronic device also cover electric shavers? Because there are some
men that I know that have electric shavers. They will
shave on the way to work. They'll commute from one
county to the other, and they'll be shaving themselves while
(37:53):
they're driving. Maybe that's against the law.
Speaker 5 (37:56):
Mother who knows the risk of distracted driving.
Speaker 12 (38:00):
She was my one and only child, and I sure
do miss her.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
Michelle Lunsford lost her daughter, Cameron Kyllawait, seven years ago. Cameron,
distracted by her phone, ran under the backside of an
eighteen willers.
Speaker 12 (38:13):
It's heartbreaking. It's so heartbreaking for especially my parents, her grandparents,
and her friends.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
The moment changed the course of Lunsford's life. She now
speaks to school and church groups about the consequences of
distracted driving.
Speaker 12 (38:26):
That the consequence to that may be devastating to you,
to a passenger, or to the people around you. You know,
are you willing to take that chance? Please be aware
of what you're doing when you're driving.
Speaker 5 (38:38):
Lunsford also helped push for the hands free law. It
went into effect in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 13 (38:43):
We went out and issued warnings.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Now here's this guy. I love this guy, stay trouper,
A guy with a Leah, Alabama Law Enforcement Association. I
love his accent. This is he needs to run for office,
I would just just somebody. If he doesn't go into
public office, somebody hire him to be the spokesperson for
something where he has talked every day. I want to
(39:06):
hear this accent every day.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Push for the hands free law. It went into effect
in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 13 (39:12):
We went out and issued warnings for an extended period
of time.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
One of your ago stat troopers began writing tickets. In
the last year, they've issued nineteen hundred scitiians state.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Wide, nineteen hundred. Really, I don't know anybody that's got
one of these nineteen hundred.
Speaker 5 (39:30):
Captain Jeremy Berkhad says. The goal is not to give tickets,
but to save lives.
Speaker 13 (39:35):
We're not that we're trying to go out and may
give anybody a bunch of tickets or write a bunch
of tickets. That's not what it's about. We're out and
there trying to educate people.
Speaker 12 (39:43):
My message is.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Again the man I love listening to the guy talk.
Speaker 12 (39:47):
It's the life and death consequences of distracted driving.
Speaker 5 (39:50):
Lunsford says. While painful for her to see the images
of her daughter's car, she hopes it opens eyes to
the dangers of distracted driving. She takes comfort and knowing
her daughter continues to make a difference.
Speaker 12 (40:03):
You know, all things work for the good of those
who know and love the Lord, and I do. She
certainly did, And He works all things out for the good.
And this is this is for the good. Good things
are happening from it. It's hard, but I know good
things are happening.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
God bless her.
Speaker 5 (40:21):
Now, when you get a call or text, it's really
tempting to go ahead and pick up your phone. But
remember you can always set it to do not disturb,
or you can set up those automatic text messages to
let people know that you are driving at that time.
Speaker 11 (40:36):
Now, all right, things a lot Rosanna and vice.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I don't know that I would ever. I don't know
that it's even possible for me to learn how to
do that.
Speaker 11 (40:45):
Relating the hands free driving log can result and fines
and points off your driving record. For a first offense
to find it's fifty dollars and one point is added.
A second offense within twenty four months carries a one
hundred dollars fine and two points, while subsequent offenses within
the same time frame result at a one hundred and
fifty dollars fine and three points.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Imagine getting multiple distracted driving tickets. What a bizarre thing
that to rack up there a bunch of distracted driving tickets. Anyway,
I'm sure that it does save lives. I'm surprised more
people aren't being run over because people are driving around
distracted looking at their phones. So again, remember in Alabama,
(41:30):
if you are if you're holding your phone in your
hand while you're driving, you are breaking the law. It's
you're a lawbreaker if you're holding it in your hand.
All right, let's see it. By the way, the most
distracted the most distracting thing I've ever had in my
vehicle was not a smartphone or an iPad or anything
(41:54):
like that. It would have been It would be a
child in a car seat behind and me throwing objects
at me as I'm driving. Which has happened, Yes, that
has happened. I nearly nearly wrecked my vehicle once, many
many many years ago when the child in the back
(42:18):
seat decided that the coloring book not just colors. Colors
are one thing, just being pelted by crayons. But then
when the coloring book itself landed on the steering wheel,
that was quite a distraction, and the little child learned
a lesson after it happened, because when the when the
(42:40):
coloring book was thrown and landed on the steering wheel
and almost wrecked the car, I decided that the coloring
book would have to go out the window. And yes,
I broke the law. I littered. Yes, I littered, and
I broke the law. But I've tried to make up
for it by picking up all the disgusting litter I find.
When I'm walking through Midtown Mobile on my dog walks,
(43:01):
I find some of the weirdest litter in Mobile. I
look back after the break more Uncle Henry Show. After
this break, let's go ahead and take the break, Uncle
(43:32):
Henry Show, News Radio seventy ten wnt em see. I've
got some voicemail to get to voicemail number two five
one two one six, nineteen seventy six. That's two five
one two one six, nineteen seventy six. Before I get
to that. In the last segment of the show, I
was talking about litter. How I littered. Once I broke
(43:55):
the law and littered, it was a bad decision, and
I've tried to make up for that by picking up litter.
As I walk through the streets of the city of Mobile.
I live in Midtown Mobile, and I walk my dog
a couple of times a day, at least once a day,
sometimes a couple of times a day, depending on whether
or not I'll get a heat stroke. And the litter,
(44:17):
it's it's always nice to see what is just the
type of litter in my neighborhood. You just learn a lot.
I learn a lot from the litter in my neighborhood.
Like I've learned that a vodka and gin. Vodka and
gin very popular in midtown Now other they're not throwing
(44:40):
out whiskey bottles. It's always vodka or gin bottles in
midtown Mobile. It's also been uh. It was also horrifying
one morning, I think it was a Saturday morning. I
was walking my dog and close to my home on
a corner in midtown Mobile, there were open prophylactic wrappers. Yeah,
(45:06):
I thought, so, under what circumstance are you? Are you
throwing this out of a car window when you're and
this was not on a main street, This was in
a neighbor just this was not off of a main
street in midtown. It wasn't on the side of dolphin.
It wasn't on the side of airport. This was on
(45:27):
a side street. What on earth? I tried to figure
out in my mind the circumstances, and then I regretted
it because some things we should not dwell on. Anyway,
don't throw things out the car window. Now, let's see voicemail.
Let's all right, Am I gonna get another raccoon oriented message?
(45:48):
Am I going to get some a raccoon message? Let's
find out together?
Speaker 4 (45:56):
He ask your question if therapoon to cross faces? Ice?
I assume they.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
Oh asked a question. Do raccoons go into crawl spaces?
We've had all week long. Raccoons have been discussed on
the Uncle Henry Show. You've ford talked about how raccoons
love attics. They love to get into an attic for
whatever reasons. Do they like? I asked, do they like
crawl spaces? Well, let's find out. Do raccoons like crawl
(46:22):
spaces under houses?
Speaker 4 (46:24):
Questionister, coon's getting to cross faces? Ice? I assume they do.
But Henry, I've always heard of problem coons getting in
the attic. I do believe they prefer to be up
high versus down low. But uh, but yeah, hearing The
best bit I found is a good old fashioned old
(46:44):
mobile Marti Grael moon Pie has everything they love, marshmellows,
chocolates and sweetness in there. It's a convection that was
almost invented and made it exactly for the coons taste buds.
But uh, Henry asking about the cross face reminded me
of a whole store years and years ago. Working for
(47:09):
the phone factory, I come across a feller whose phone
was out, and he was old hippie dude with a
bartender at the Zebra Club.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
Lounges on vip oh Okay, and.
Speaker 4 (47:24):
Told them that phone lines were messed up in his attic,
had to get up there, and his exact reply was.
Speaker 3 (47:32):
No way do you?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Definitely not too, Henry. The reason was there was a
family of raccoons living in his attic, and Henry, this
hippie was so in tune with nature he did not
want me going in his attic disturbings the raightcoon family.
Speaker 1 (47:52):
Well, now that's nasty, you know. I also think animals
are wonderful. I do. I like animals. I appreciate. I
appreciate animals, some of them I enjoy eating. But the
idea of letting wild animals live in your attic.
Speaker 4 (48:11):
So Henry, he told me he called back when the
raccoons moved out.
Speaker 7 (48:17):
It's Henry.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
Six months later he called me back and said that
all the baby raccoons had grown up and fled in
this and I come fixed his uh oh and the funk,
and is that? But Henry, he was a neat old
hippie feller.
Speaker 1 (48:39):
I mean he unfortunately his cell phone call dropped out there,
so we didn't get to hear all these circumstances involving
the raccoons moving out.
Speaker 9 (48:48):
He really was.
Speaker 4 (48:49):
But yep, man, And the fact you don't have any
problems with them, but you got them in your neighbor's
yard is probably your saving graces. You do not feed
your dogs outside. I guarantee you man, you need dog
food on your back porch. You're gonna have a coon problem.
They love that dry dog and cat food. But how
(49:11):
they got in my garage, Henry was we had a
bag old Marti grasl beech. Of course, the chill green
could not throw them away, so the wife maybe put
them in the attic in the garage, and there was
an old crusty moon pie in the bottom of it.
I did not know about. After I repeatedly told them
to make sure there was no food or candy in there.
(49:33):
And Henry, that old coon chew the holes in my
garage wall attic level got in there and jat that
moon pie that bag. I told that coon too. I
got more from where that come from?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
And and then the phone cut him off well, or
the voicemail did Beauford. Thank thank you Beauford for your voicemail,
and thank you for listening to the Uncle Henry show.
As they say in Chairland, have a good one, as
they say in Theodore, take it easy
Speaker 9 (50:04):

Email address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. That's Uncle
henriyd iHeartMedia dot com. Today a national holiday, Juneteenth. I
(03:33):
hope that you have had a wonderful Juneteenth Day. Celebrating today.
Now I'm here at work. I don't like working on
a national holiday, so I'm going I will be out tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow,
I'm gonna be celebrating Juneteenth. Tomorrow I'm gonna be spending
some time in in both Mobile and Baldwin Counties. Just
(03:54):
I'm gonna have the theme to be just personal emancipation,
and so I will be personally in emancipated throughout Mobile
in Baldwin counties tomorrow celebrating June tenth. I wish I'd
done it today, but some things popped up here. But
I hope that you've had a wonderful June teenth yourself,
in whatever way that you've chosen to mark and commemorate
(04:16):
the occasion. Now, we have numerous things to get to
on the un Clinner Show. As is usual, you have
all the stuff going on with everybody wondering if the
United States is going to get further involved in war.
We've got we've got all the different stuff going on
a mobile. We had a couple of people jump into
the mayor's race. We may get into that later. Yes,
(04:38):
more people jumping into the mayor's race. Get into that.
I'll get into that in a little while. But there's
one story. I don't know if you've if you've heard
this or paid attention to this, this is maybe this
is way down on your list of things to be
upset about, but it really because of my age, my
(05:01):
personal demographics, this is just irritating me to no end
to hear this story. All right, I'll share with you
the brief story from Fox News. Fox National News. Social
Security and medicare not going to be able to pay
(05:22):
out full benefits sooner than expected. Here's Fox News is
Jill Nato.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
Last year, Social Securities trustees said they wouldn't be able
to shell out full benefits starting in twenty thirty five.
A new report says that's going to happen now in
twenty thirty.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Four, twenty thirty four.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
After that, Social Security would only be able to pay
eighty one percent of benefits.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Why did you hear that twenty thirty four? Bout at
the current rate, when we get to twenty thirty four,
those of us that are still surviving, Social Security will
only pay out eighty one percent of benefits.
Speaker 8 (06:00):
The report from the trustees says, you can blame new
legislation affecting Social Security for that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh, I can blame new legislation for that. No, I'm
sorry trustees that issued this report. I will blame all
of these freaks in Washington, d C. That are going
up there and getting paid to be representatives and senators
in Washington. That's who I'll blame. I ain't gonna blame
no new some new legislation that they've passed. This is
(06:27):
something that've been talking about for years and years and
years and nobody's not a dead gum thing about it. Instead,
they want to send more money over here. They want
to send more money over there. If anybody wants to
cut a thing up there, they scream like they're having
body parts cut off unwillingly. I know that some people
are into that these days, but they're screaming like an
(06:49):
unwilling body part has been cut off up there. Anytime
you try to stop spending, and here we are, they're
telling us, and if I'm my math is correct, less
than ten years that it would they would have to
reduce benefits.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
What is what?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
What is the priority list? Is there any priority up
there in the Senate, in the House of Representatives that
deals with the actual country. If we could just have
a two year period where we didn't send a bunch
of money anywhere else, could that maybe save it or
put off another ten years or something. Listener, I apologize
(07:29):
for being agitated. It just it just the idea I am.
I've always had a bit of disappointment with those that
represent us in Washington, in both political parties, but at
this point pretty much disgusted, still trying to figure out
who they really are working for up there. It's what
(07:52):
issue what is the one issue that you can never touch,
no matter what party you're in, you can't touch Social
Security or or medicare or the public just gets so
mad at you if you try to suggest any changes
to it, and they've let it get to this point.
Is it just stupidity? Here's a question. Is it just
(08:15):
stupidity among the Congress? Or is a corruption? Which one is?
It got to be one of them. Is there a
third reason? I don't know that there could be a
third option. It's got to be either corruption or just
incredible stupidity with these folks. You know, people talk about
(08:37):
term limits, which we'll never get. I'm at a point
where I'd like there to be a one and done.
You're up there for a term, and then you can't
go back or ever lobby or even go near the
district of Columbia orrever go into a federal building. There's
more to come. Yes, we'll get into other things. I'm
(08:59):
just just as irritated as I can be with these
dat gun politicians. Seventen Uncle Henry's show five twenty News
(09:30):
Headlines coming up in ten minutes from Fox ten and
Fox Radio National News. You'd like to call the show
you can two, five, one, four, seven, nine three. I've
got people waiting to talk. I will now. I will
now answer the phone lines for the benefit of me
(09:54):
and you the listener.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Hello, Color, Hey, Henry, how you doing this season?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Cliff Cliff, you are live on the radio.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Yes, they always say the first woman to do this
and the first woman to do that, but that in
the eighteen hundreds, we talked about black people, and one
of our black men bought his own his freedom and
(10:35):
he ran as what you call the VP because it
was doing Congress. Then he ran with a lady running
for office for Congress. Her name was Virginia Tuthill, and
he was stating that he'd run for anybody doing He'll
(10:55):
run with anybody doing right, but he wouldn't. He wouldn't
stand for anybody doing wrong. He also told his slave master,
you can come to my house any time. I'm not
gonna make you sit on the courch like you did me.
He had an understanding of God. If we ever understood
(11:20):
doing evil for evil, there wouldn't even be a Democrat party.
This is the evil that set up that we could
ever have. June tenth had nothing to do with the world.
It had to do with Texas. It was three years
after the massurpacing proclamation before it even freed the slave,
(11:40):
before it even got to Texas, because them folks didn't
want the black folks to know about it. So the
junior tat was for Gaveston, Texas. They don't never tell
you the whole history of about anything.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Well history. People would prefer to change history.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Hey man, Frederick Douglas, you never heard him talk about it.
He hated anybody. He hit the ground, run to kep going.
We got to be a victim for the left, his
progressive socialists. I'm understanding that everybody on the street, I
was thinking that they didn't have a job. But Uncle Henry,
those people are being paid to be out there. There
(12:26):
has nothing to do with us. If it's a black
person out there, they're being paid to do this. Who
is their right mind? Are protesting for Iran?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Now?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Think about that. You have blood, Dellgain, you have.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
A blush day to thank you, Cliff for your phone

be tuned in.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Brother, all right, now tell me your public safety announcement,
Hunger Henry.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
Over the past three weeks, there has been a uptick
in the number of armadillas that is being hit on
the Highway, three just this week along on Snow Road
between Airport and Tanner Williams Road. And the reason for
the public safety announcement, Uncle, This is a animal that
is known to carry a micro bacteria called lepi as.
(13:54):
About eighteen to twenty percent of them animals carry that
bacteria and it is known to us as leoprosy. So
I was reading a report from the CDC that said,
in the year twenty twenty, we had one hundred and
forty cases here in the southeast of Leoprosy, and since
(14:15):
then the numbers are increasing each year. So I'd just
like to let people out there know, if you know
of the nine banded armadillo, which is what the one
that's around here in the southeast is called, is digging
or walling or forging, avoid them areas because the only
way to get that disease is from handling that animal
(14:37):
or coming in contact of a surface where that animal
has been. So just be aware. And then you know,
I've removed one.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Last year old.
Speaker 10 (14:47):
It was in somebody's driveway that had got hit and
I just basically I tied fishing line around it and
just drug it down the dirt road. And when I
sped up, the line broke and it was you know,
it is off to up.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Wait no wait, wait, wait, wait wait a second. You
tied fishing line around a dead armadilla and then attached
the fishing line to your vehicle and you you dragged
the dead armadilla down a dirt road.
Speaker 10 (15:14):
Well, yes, sir, I carried it probably about a half
a mile down the road. And then when I just
shot the gas to it only twenty pound test line,
so it broke. But an animal like that is very
dangerous to be in your driveway or in your yard.
Did so because you can contract leprosy from it. It's
only about eighteen to twenty percent of them that carries
that micro bacteria, but people needs to be aware of that.
(15:37):
I mean, that's that's one of the ways to get it.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
So snake, Trevor, We've we've talked about a wide variety
of animals on the Uncle Henry Show in the last
several years. Of course, snakes, possums, raccoons, we have we've
not talked a lot about armadilla's. We have not. Now,
why do you think you're seeing all of this armadilla roadkiller? Is?
Is this an active time of year for the armadilla?
Speaker 10 (16:00):
I'm Henry there they are night dwellers. Uh that they
are very active at night and I've just h I've
just seen a lot of them being here. I don't
know if that's the reason for the UH increase in
lepsy cases in the Southeast, but that is one of
the known sources.
Speaker 9 (16:16):
UH.
Speaker 10 (16:17):
But there seems to be more of them, and that
may be why the numbers are increasing. Uh, I read
that report just this morning from the CDC. Have you
have you conned?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Have you eaten armadillo?
Speaker 10 (16:30):
I know, sir, I have not had not been that
hungry yet. But I wouldn't roll it down on grin.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
No, you can't. You can't rule it out.
Speaker 10 (16:40):
I'd have to be desperate, brother. But man, people, people
don't know what they will eat till they've been hungry.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Amen, that is true.
Speaker 10 (16:48):
Don't ever plan on it. Don't ever plan on it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Hey, well, snake trampers, thank you very much.
Speaker 10 (16:53):
Yes, sir, you take care of my buddy.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
You too, Thank you. And uh, if you want more
snake tramper, you can listen tomorrow when there will be
a rerun of the Snake Trapper Show where lots of
people called in and asked snake questions. That'll be tomorrow
here on news Radio seven to ten wntim Nella's Snake
Trapper checking CDC news releases on armadillos and leprosy. You know,
(17:17):
I don't Fox ten ought to have Snake Trapper on
at least once a week on Studio ten, just to
just to tell Joe Emer and Chelsea says on about
raccoons and Hawseum's and snakes Armadilla's. There is more to
(17:41):
get to, of course there is. Den Glenner's show continues
after the news break here on news Radio seven ten
w NTM. Uncle Show News Radio seven to ten WNTM.
(18:16):
Thank you for listening to the UNC Glennary Show. You
can also hear me on ninety five KSJ playing Today's
Hottest Country on ninety five KSJ. Now Monday, when I'm
back on ninety five KSJ Monday, I'm on the air
between ten and two there Monday at right after one o'clock,
(18:38):
I'll have a concert announcement that I'll be making that's Monday,
right after one pm. And also have tickets that I'll
give away to that concert event Monday afternoon. Run after
one o'clock on ninety five KSJ. Telephone number here is
two five one two three. That's two five one four
(19:01):
seven nine two seventy two three. Now, I've got a
lot of things to get to. There's one thing I
wanted to make sure I mentioned briefly the website wallet Hub,
which seems to be in the business of making lists
so that people will visit their website. Today. They came
out with their list of what they say are the
best run cities in the United States. They ranked one
(19:25):
hundred and forty eight cities to figure out which which
cities are run the best and which cities are run
the worst. And they had lots of different metrics like
quality of education, violent crime, unemployment rate, quality of roads
and infrastructure, local economy, pollution, financial stability. So with all
(19:51):
those factors, one hundred and forty eight cities, they say
that Provo, Utah is the best run city in the
United States. Provo u Tall. They say the worst run
city in the United States of America San Francisco. Now,
the reason I'm bringing it up is that Mobile, out
of one hundred and forty eight cities, Mobile ranked number
(20:12):
twenty four. Not bad. That is not too bad to
be ranked number twenty four on that list, and looking
at what they were ranking things on, I'm sure the
reason Mobile ranked so high is because the city of
Mobile is not in debt like not yet anyway, and
(20:37):
the local economy is so good with all the investment
in the local economy, So Mobile doing way better than Birmingham,
way better than even Gulfport Biloxi, better than New Orleans.
According to this list, Mobile is the twenty fourth best
run city in the United States of America. Now is
(21:00):
the list worth anything? Probably not, but it's still nice
to be closer to the top of the list than
at the bottom of the list for a change again
two five to one four seven nine two three the
telephone number here on the Uncle Invers show. Now, before
I dive into the other topics, let me say I
did get some voicemails. Earlier this week we had sixty
(21:23):
eight year old Chris of West Locksley talk about his
his Father's Day where he went to his number one
sons house and his number one son fed him steak,
cooked a ribba and a filet mignon. And sixty eight
year old Chris called in where they follow up on
(21:44):
what happened on Father's Day.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
So, Tad Huck Uncle, well a couple of things. First
ball inter did them to that call that I made
in regards to what number one fixes for Father's Day?
I left out the d third party candies, chocolate chip
ice creams mmm M goods was extra. What else I
(22:09):
called you about was a bit of an issue on
my hands. Here Rita, she likes the music she's in
the choir elementary school choir, Robert Stale. She's a good singer.
Ain't nothing like her, old man, but she and she
listens to different talks of music. The other day she
blugged in some sixties music, some Dion and whoa.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Your your Now? Your daughter in elementary school is listening
to Dion from the sixties, not Seline Dion. You're talking
about actual Dion.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I think there was. I think she was listening to
some Supremes and all that, and I'm right round her
for that. But one of the artists that she's really
getting kind of infatuated with is Madonna.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
I know, I didn't like her back in the dead
lay eighties and I still don't like her. And I
tried to explain to her what her music, what it
is she's singing about. Remember now she's ten and a half.
Any help, any advice, you can give me anything, anything.
I'm wide of im al Ear's brother.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Sixty eight year old Chris, thank you for your voicemail
and sharing this difficulty you're having now that you're you're
ten and a half year old, is becoming infatuated with
Madonna music? That is something to be concerned about because
demon Madonna is demonic. In my opinion, that's a personal opinion.
I believe it's very demonic some of the music that
(23:37):
she is singing and all that kind of stuff. Now,
I didn't right raise a girl, So I don't know what.
I really don't know what to tell you, other than
you can patiently explain the satanistic nature of Madonna and
how it could destroy your daughter's soul if she continues
to sing the Madonna songs. Now, I would try and stea,
(24:00):
I try to switch her over to some some more
wholesome music. There's always, uh the music of Dolly Parton,
that you could switch her over to. Dolly Parton universally
loved in our country. Modern day musicians like Landy Wilson.
Landy Wilson very popular with young women in the country,
(24:22):
especially in the South. But I wish I had better
advice for you, But I did not raise a child.
All you can do is just tell her the truth
as much as you can tell her the truth, let
her know what she's dealing with, and go from there,
all right. Two five one four seven nine two seven
two three The telephone number, Hello.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Color, Uncle Henry, Steve how are.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
You, Stephen Breling. You are live on the radio.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
I heard you talking about that list of best run
cities and we will be in twenty four. Yeah, the
article on I was Channel ten, Channel five, one of
the local news places and looking on a comminentce section
and the amount of folks hyperventilating over that talking about
how you know that's a lie ain't true. There ain't
(25:10):
no way. I think folks need to, uh remember back
the state this place was in when Sam Jones left
the city for Sandy got in and we were on
the We're we're basically bankrupt, you know. I mean it's
the infrastructure was crumbling and that has been turned around.
(25:30):
It ain't perfect. There's plenty of opportunity to you know,
for you know, for improvement, but it's way better than
it was. I think I think there's just some folks
out there who just have such a i don't know,
hatred of some of our current city leaders that they're
just blind to the good things that are going on.
And I think folks need to just take a step
back and you know, maybe take a breath, well and
(25:52):
and remember where we came from.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Well yeah, well, and it may not be hatred for
currency leaders. That just may be short term memory. You know,
that's over ten years ago that it was in this
horrible shape. But the local economy has just skyrocketed dramatically
with billions of dollars being invested both private and public
(26:15):
on the Gulf Coast. So our local economy is doing
better than really anywhere in the region. And there's lots
of stats that back that up that show the Mobile's
economy is outpacing the national economy, no doubt about it.
We're just doing better with their local economy and the
financial state of the city. You correctly pointed out that
we were. We were in terrible financial straits. They could
(26:38):
not afford to upgrade any infrastructure at all in the
city because they needed the money just to keep the
lights on it government plaza, and keep keep people paid.
There were public officials that admitted publicly that they pushed
for annexation just to get the money to run the city,
not to grow the city. They just needed the cash. So, yes,
(27:00):
a lot of people have a very short memory of
how how the financial situation in the city was terrible
back in those days. It was.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
Yeah, I think I think when once Handy got in
there was like a two hundred and some odd million
dollars worth of long term debt that we were on
to look forward that that think that'll be paid off
in the next couple of years. And I think the
police and fire pension was severely underwater, and that is
I think it's just about fully funded now. I mean
those two things along is massive. So don's just need
(27:32):
to remember where we came from.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Hey, I agree completely, Steven Brillan, Thank you. That's great day,
you too. There's a more show to come after the break.
Seventy Uncle Henry Scholder's Radio seventy ten WNTM. It is

What's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (28:31):
And I just called. I just said I hadn't talked
with you in a while, and I just thought about
some of them old classic rock shows such as twenty five,
twenty five your man, see it would be a lie.
It's just something to think about. Yeah, that was and
the song, uh Time of the Baller. Yeah, yeah, and
(28:56):
it was just something to think about and that, you know,
and that other one, Spin the Wheels by Blood, Sweat
and Tears.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
You know, I hadn't I hadn't thought about that or
heard about that in years.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
I know that that first one I talked about it
come back. It was a classic in nineteen sixty nine. Yep,
it went to the top. Anytime you could put some
and they go to the top of the chart. You
done good, that's right? Uh uh Fleetwood mag Uh the
(29:31):
Rolling Songs, I mean they put that. Uh. I can't
get no satisfaction. They sold two hundred copies of it
and they they went to the top of the chart.
The closest person was next to them with Michael Jackson
with Thriller. That's a lot of music, Unkle Hendrick.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
That is a lot of music.
Speaker 9 (29:51):
Yeah, And and uh, that was that original though, I
can't get no satisfaction. I'm the original, the oldest had
the song that, uh, the Rolling Songs redd Over.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I didn't know that. I didn't know that. Yeah, I
bet Otis Redding was way better than the Rolling Stones
on that it.
Speaker 9 (30:12):
Could have been. But I mean, but this song they
took from him and remade it over. They got it.
Look at the Beatles when they come here. The Who's
out did California? They had a last country out there
by seventy nine. Whether there's something and and they Drew
(30:34):
Drew Uh had sixty nine thousand people are more in
the sands and these kicking was over five hundred, five
hundred dollars a more for the the guess who's I know?
You've heard 'em? Oh yeah, all them groups and a
lot of them was great. Uncle Andrew, You've.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
You've lived through a lot, haven't you.
Speaker 9 (30:57):
Yes, I just think my suburb he letting me see it,
and I'm seeing just thinking as I've been here, a
lot of good music was sung back. And now I
tell your song right now it is old, but it
come out in set seven and it got it got
(31:19):
a the marking of trade wind We are in the
trade winds of our can And when you the album
is when you heard lou you heard it all?
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Now?
Speaker 9 (31:33):
Yes, okay, yes you heard out trade winds of Yes,
yes that was a bad And look at it today
where we at and look what's going on in society.
Speaker 1 (31:46):

Speaker 9 (31:51):
He was, he was bad, and he the one of
his best. Have you seen old dollar Green? Yes, at
everybody looking for and trying to find them so they
can get what they need.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
That's right. That hadn't changed. That hadn't changed, hasn't.
Speaker 9 (32:09):
No, it won't change, because said, if you ain't got it,
you can't get what you need. You got to have
somewhere to stay. You gotta have transportation and everything we do,
you got to keep it up.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Well, David, I'm delighted that you were you're still around her,
that you called the show. I love to hearing from you.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
Yeah, well it's good. I've been listening a lot sometime.
I called in. I hell, I just lately I just
took a break for a while, and I just said
I would go see what's going on. And I still
got music in my head. But I I guess when
they put me in the ground that they could pick
(32:52):
I'd wake up with her.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
So well, that'd be a great way to wake up.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Okay, you take care, good talking and I do with
you later.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
All right, Good, Thank you, Dave. Always great to It's
been a long time since Dave called in, and I've
had some wonderful through the years that I can remember
having wonderful conversations with Dave on The Uncle Henry Show.
There's great live conversations about a variety of topics, both
serious and not so serious. So Dave, thank you. Just
(33:24):
I'm just grateful to hear it that Dave is still
with us and out there and could contribute some of
his memories and as Dave can probably help us put
some modern events into context with all of that knowledge.
He's got all right out of time for this hour
of show, but there's more coming up after the news break.
(33:47):
Here on News Radio seven ten WNTM. Tomorrow, I'll be
celebrating June tenth tomorrow, taking a day off off, I
will be running a rerun of The Uncle Henry Show
tomorrow featuring Snake Trapper in studio with lots of snake calls.
(34:13):
That's tomorrow on the Uncle Henry Show. It says the
(34:37):
Uncle Henry Show here on News Radio seventy ten wnt hey,
thank you for listening. I do appreciate you listening to
The Uncle Henry Show. It's one of them days. I
love having a job, just a free air conditioning alone. Yeah,
I've got a place to get some free air conditioning
here with a job. Now, in this half hour of
(35:02):
Uncle Henry Show, going to check some news items and
share them with you and with me. Maybe I'll have
time for more raccoon voicemail. First, let's check a story.
This has to do with the law in Alabama about
(35:24):
not being able to use your phone. We have a
hands free law in Alabama. Now does anybody does anybody?
Does anybody abide by this law? The people around me
and their vehicles don't seem to be abiding with this law.
(35:45):
I still see a lot of phones in hands around me.
I've got a news story about this for you and
me to listen to. This is a story from w
s f A in Montgomery stepsister station t w ALA,
Fox ten, where they're going to report on the current
state of hands free driving in the state of Alabama.
Speaker 11 (36:09):
Learning more about the impact of Alabama's hands free driving law.
Speaker 6 (36:13):
The state legislature passed the ban on mobile devices while
driving in twenty twenty.
Speaker 11 (36:18):
Three the goal to make our road safer. Wsa faes
while news anchor Rosemne.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I'm sure to interrupt the story before it starts. Have
you ever heard of anybody getting in trouble for it?
Have you let me know? Leave me a message? Two
five's one two one six nineteen seventy six. That's two
five one two one six, nineteen seventy six, to leave
me a message for the Uncle Henry Show.
Speaker 11 (36:47):
Santa Smith spoke with the mother who helped push for
the law after losing her daughter in a distracted driving accident.
She's joining us live right now. Rosanna tell us more.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
Is illegal to hold your phone or any other electronic
device while you are driving in Alabama.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
And we spoke to that. It's illegal. I'm sorry to
stop it again. It's illegal. In case you didn't know this,
why you're driving. You cannot hold your phone in your hand.
You're not allowed to. You're breaking the law of the land.
It's the law of the land, and you're breaking it
when you got your smartphone in your hand. And she
said any other electric electronic device. Now, I haven't looked
(37:31):
at the law myself. Now, would that be like an
iPad or something, or would this go into the would
electronic device also cover electric shavers? Because there are some
men that I know that have electric shavers. They will
shave on the way to work. They'll commute from one
county to the other, and they'll be shaving themselves while
(37:53):
they're driving. Maybe that's against the law.
Speaker 5 (37:56):
Mother who knows the risk of distracted driving.
Speaker 12 (38:00):
She was my one and only child, and I sure
do miss her.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
Michelle Lunsford lost her daughter, Cameron Kyllawait, seven years ago. Cameron,
distracted by her phone, ran under the backside of an
eighteen willers.
Speaker 12 (38:13):
It's heartbreaking. It's so heartbreaking for especially my parents, her grandparents,
and her friends.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
The moment changed the course of Lunsford's life. She now
speaks to school and church groups about the consequences of
distracted driving.
Speaker 12 (38:26):
That the consequence to that may be devastating to you,
to a passenger, or to the people around you. You know,
are you willing to take that chance? Please be aware
of what you're doing when you're driving.
Speaker 5 (38:38):
Lunsford also helped push for the hands free law. It
went into effect in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 13 (38:43):
We went out and issued warnings.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Now here's this guy. I love this guy, stay trouper,
A guy with a Leah, Alabama Law Enforcement Association. I
love his accent. This is he needs to run for office,
I would just just somebody. If he doesn't go into
public office, somebody hire him to be the spokesperson for
something where he has talked every day. I want to
(39:06):
hear this accent every day.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Push for the hands free law. It went into effect
in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 13 (39:12):
We went out and issued warnings for an extended period
of time.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
One of your ago stat troopers began writing tickets. In
the last year, they've issued nineteen hundred scitiians state.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Wide, nineteen hundred. Really, I don't know anybody that's got
one of these nineteen hundred.
Speaker 5 (39:30):
Captain Jeremy Berkhad says. The goal is not to give tickets,
but to save lives.
Speaker 13 (39:35):
We're not that we're trying to go out and may
give anybody a bunch of tickets or write a bunch
of tickets. That's not what it's about. We're out and
there trying to educate people.
Speaker 12 (39:43):
My message is.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Again the man I love listening to the guy talk.
Speaker 12 (39:47):
It's the life and death consequences of distracted driving.
Speaker 5 (39:50):
Lunsford says. While painful for her to see the images
of her daughter's car, she hopes it opens eyes to
the dangers of distracted driving. She takes comfort and knowing
her daughter continues to make a difference.
Speaker 12 (40:03):
You know, all things work for the good of those
who know and love the Lord, and I do. She
certainly did, And He works all things out for the good.
And this is this is for the good. Good things
are happening from it. It's hard, but I know good
things are happening.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
God bless her.
Speaker 5 (40:21):
Now, when you get a call or text, it's really
tempting to go ahead and pick up your phone. But
remember you can always set it to do not disturb,
or you can set up those automatic text messages to
let people know that you are driving at that time.
Speaker 11 (40:36):
Now, all right, things a lot Rosanna and vice.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I don't know that I would ever. I don't know
that it's even possible for me to learn how to
do that.
Speaker 11 (40:45):
Relating the hands free driving log can result and fines
and points off your driving record. For a first offense
to find it's fifty dollars and one point is added.
A second offense within twenty four months carries a one
hundred dollars fine and two points, while subsequent offenses within
the same time frame result at a one hundred and
fifty dollars fine and three points.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Imagine getting multiple distracted driving tickets. What a bizarre thing
that to rack up there a bunch of distracted driving tickets. Anyway,
I'm sure that it does save lives. I'm surprised more
people aren't being run over because people are driving around
distracted looking at their phones. So again, remember in Alabama,
(41:30):
if you are if you're holding your phone in your
hand while you're driving, you are breaking the law. It's
you're a lawbreaker if you're holding it in your hand.
All right, let's see it. By the way, the most
distracted the most distracting thing I've ever had in my
vehicle was not a smartphone or an iPad or anything
(41:54):
like that. It would have been It would be a
child in a car seat behind and me throwing objects
at me as I'm driving. Which has happened, Yes, that
has happened. I nearly nearly wrecked my vehicle once, many
many many years ago when the child in the back
(42:18):
seat decided that the coloring book not just colors. Colors
are one thing, just being pelted by crayons. But then
when the coloring book itself landed on the steering wheel,
that was quite a distraction, and the little child learned
a lesson after it happened, because when the when the
(42:40):
coloring book was thrown and landed on the steering wheel
and almost wrecked the car, I decided that the coloring
book would have to go out the window. And yes,
I broke the law. I littered. Yes, I littered, and
I broke the law. But I've tried to make up
for it by picking up all the disgusting litter I find.
When I'm walking through Midtown Mobile on my dog walks,
(43:01):
I find some of the weirdest litter in Mobile. I
look back after the break more Uncle Henry Show. After
this break, let's go ahead and take the break, Uncle
(43:32):
Henry Show, News Radio seventy ten wnt em see. I've
got some voicemail to get to voicemail number two five
one two one six, nineteen seventy six. That's two five
one two one six, nineteen seventy six. Before I get
to that. In the last segment of the show, I
was talking about litter. How I littered. Once I broke
(43:55):
the law and littered, it was a bad decision, and
I've tried to make up for that by picking up litter.
As I walk through the streets of the city of Mobile.
I live in Midtown Mobile, and I walk my dog
a couple of times a day, at least once a day,
sometimes a couple of times a day, depending on whether
or not I'll get a heat stroke. And the litter,
(44:17):
it's it's always nice to see what is just the
type of litter in my neighborhood. You just learn a lot.
I learn a lot from the litter in my neighborhood.
Like I've learned that a vodka and gin. Vodka and
gin very popular in midtown Now other they're not throwing
(44:40):
out whiskey bottles. It's always vodka or gin bottles in
midtown Mobile. It's also been uh. It was also horrifying
one morning, I think it was a Saturday morning. I
was walking my dog and close to my home on
a corner in midtown Mobile, there were open prophylactic wrappers. Yeah,
(45:06):
I thought, so, under what circumstance are you? Are you
throwing this out of a car window when you're and
this was not on a main street, This was in
a neighbor just this was not off of a main
street in midtown. It wasn't on the side of dolphin.
It wasn't on the side of airport. This was on
(45:27):
a side street. What on earth? I tried to figure
out in my mind the circumstances, and then I regretted
it because some things we should not dwell on. Anyway,
don't throw things out the car window. Now, let's see voicemail.
Let's all right, Am I gonna get another raccoon oriented message?
(45:48):
Am I going to get some a raccoon message? Let's
find out together?
Speaker 4 (45:56):
He ask your question if therapoon to cross faces? Ice?
I assume they.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
Oh asked a question. Do raccoons go into crawl spaces?
We've had all week long. Raccoons have been discussed on
the Uncle Henry Show. You've ford talked about how raccoons
love attics. They love to get into an attic for
whatever reasons. Do they like? I asked, do they like
crawl spaces? Well, let's find out. Do raccoons like crawl
(46:22):
spaces under houses?
Speaker 4 (46:24):
Questionister, coon's getting to cross faces? Ice? I assume they do.
But Henry, I've always heard of problem coons getting in
the attic. I do believe they prefer to be up
high versus down low. But uh, but yeah, hearing The
best bit I found is a good old fashioned old
(46:44):
mobile Marti Grael moon Pie has everything they love, marshmellows,
chocolates and sweetness in there. It's a convection that was
almost invented and made it exactly for the coons taste buds.
But uh, Henry asking about the cross face reminded me
of a whole store years and years ago. Working for
(47:09):
the phone factory, I come across a feller whose phone
was out, and he was old hippie dude with a
bartender at the Zebra Club.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
Lounges on vip oh Okay, and.
Speaker 4 (47:24):
Told them that phone lines were messed up in his attic,
had to get up there, and his exact reply was.
Speaker 3 (47:32):
No way do you?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Definitely not too, Henry. The reason was there was a
family of raccoons living in his attic, and Henry, this
hippie was so in tune with nature he did not
want me going in his attic disturbings the raightcoon family.
Speaker 1 (47:52):
Well, now that's nasty, you know. I also think animals
are wonderful. I do. I like animals. I appreciate. I
appreciate animals, some of them I enjoy eating. But the
idea of letting wild animals live in your attic.
Speaker 4 (48:11):
So Henry, he told me he called back when the
raccoons moved out.
Speaker 7 (48:17):
It's Henry.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
Six months later he called me back and said that
all the baby raccoons had grown up and fled in
this and I come fixed his uh oh and the funk,
and is that? But Henry, he was a neat old
hippie feller.
Speaker 1 (48:39):
I mean he unfortunately his cell phone call dropped out there,
so we didn't get to hear all these circumstances involving
the raccoons moving out.
Speaker 9 (48:48):
He really was.
Speaker 4 (48:49):
But yep, man, And the fact you don't have any
problems with them, but you got them in your neighbor's
yard is probably your saving graces. You do not feed
your dogs outside. I guarantee you man, you need dog
food on your back porch. You're gonna have a coon problem.
They love that dry dog and cat food. But how
(49:11):
they got in my garage, Henry was we had a
bag old Marti grasl beech. Of course, the chill green
could not throw them away, so the wife maybe put
them in the attic in the garage, and there was
an old crusty moon pie in the bottom of it.
I did not know about. After I repeatedly told them
to make sure there was no food or candy in there.
(49:33):
And Henry, that old coon chew the holes in my
garage wall attic level got in there and jat that
moon pie that bag. I told that coon too. I
got more from where that come from?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
And and then the phone cut him off well, or
the voicemail did Beauford. Thank thank you Beauford for your voicemail,
and thank you for listening to the Uncle Henry show.
As they say in Chairland, have a good one, as
they say in Theodore, take it easy
Speaker 9 (50:04):
