Speaker 1 (00:22):
This Sysney Uncle Henry Show here on news Radio seventy
ten WNT. Thank you, thank you for listening to the
Uncle Henry Show. I appreciate that bear very much. Now,
in this high hour of Uncle Henry's Show, I'm going
to get to some voicemails that have come in over
the past few days and maybe even weeks, and maybe

(00:43):
I'll have time for a news item or two voicemail
number to leave a message for the Uncle Henry Show.
The voicemail number is two five one two one six,
nineteen seventy six. That's two five one two one six,
nineteen seventy six. To leave a message for the Uncle
Henry s Show. I want to start off with a
message about the Alabama Crimson Tide football game this past weekend.

(01:07):
Let's go to the voicemail to sixty eight year old
Kris of West Locksley, Alabama tied.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Well, it's a nice beautiful Sunday afternoon here on the
front porch in west Locksley, USA. Grab thready yesterday took
off yesterday morning. Not to Title Town, USA. That's Tuscaloosa,
Alabama for the unknown.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
All Right, So sixty eight year old Chris took his
daughter to the Alabama game. Roll Tied Roland. Congratulations to
you and your family for being able to take the
child up to teacher about life at the Alabama games.
That's a wonderful learning experience. You can learn a lot
through travel, especially to Tuscaloosa to an Alabama game.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
To check out the game betwixt Alabama and some high
school team from eastern Illinois. And it went about as
I was expecting and whatnot. Some things kind of surprised me,
both negatively and positively from.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
The Alabama point of view.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and say this, uncle, and
I've kind of feared it ever since Auburn fired Hugh Freeze.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I believe Alburn's gonna win that game this weekend. I'll
tell you what.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Wow, what now? I did not expect. I did not
expect this on a Monday. On a Monday, getting a
phone call placed on a Sunday telling me sixty eight
year old Chris expecting Auburn to win this game. All right, now,
he's got years of experience with Alabama. Let me back

(02:47):
this up. I want to hear the reasoning behind this.
Sixty eight year old Chris expecting an Auburn victory in
the Ron Bowl. Let's listen to his reasoning.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Here positively from the Alabama point of view. You I'm
gonna go ahead and say this, uncle, and I've kind
of feared it ever since Auburn fired Hugh Freese.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
I believe Alburn's gonna win that game this weekend.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
I tell you what, all they needed was some motivation
to get to where they could score points because Hugh
Freese was always down in the mouth and hold woe
is me about everything, and generally speaking, football players take
on the persona of their head coach.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
All right now, I'm pausing there now, and I understand
what you're saying about Hugh Freeze. Hugh Freeze was He
was not not the dynamic coach. No offense to him
and all of his wonderful I know there's a lot
of huge Hugh Freese fans, I'm sure listening right now
miss him at Alburn. But you're right, sixteen year old Chris,

(03:53):
You're right about him, and that there was not a
lot of excitement about Hugh Freeze seemed to be excited.
No matter what talent he got, he didn't seem to
be excited there So you're but you're saying, you put
forward the theory, the hypothesis the teams take on the
persona of their head coach. So you're saying that whoever

(04:18):
is interim there at Auburn, And I've already no offense
to him, I've already forgotten his name. I got to
keep room in my head for other stuff. But I
so he's just is he a happier, more motivating, exciting guy?
It could? Could it be that simple? Could it be
that simple?

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Woe was me?

Speaker 3 (04:38):
About everything? And generally speaking, football players take on the
persona of their head coach. But I hope I'm wrong.
I just I just don't look forward to be But
you know what, regardless, this has been a heck of
a football year for us.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
I'm I'm proud of this team on some of the
accomplishments they've made.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Me too, by the way they've entertained me. They have
the Alabama crimson. They have and ultimately that's what it
that's what it is. Well, maybe not for you, maybe
you the listener, it's life or death. For me. It
does affect my tea level when they lose and win,

(05:23):
but it's mostly entertainment for me. And I have really
after losing that first game, I have enjoyed watching them
battle forward and improve.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Some of the accomplishments they've made.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Anyhow, there'll be more conversation TwixT now and then. I
suspect looking forward to you being back on Monday. Thank
you catching you on the YouTube roll tied, mister roll tid.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Roll, sixty eight year old Chris. Thank you for watching
the first hour of the Uncle Henry Show on YouTube
and you the listener, even if you don't want to
watch it, it just does. Slip on over to YouTube
when nobody's paying attention and subscribe to the Uncle Henry
Show on YouTube. You don't have to ever watch my videos.
If you just go over there and subscribe, that would

(06:11):
help me out a lot. I appreciate that very much.
Voicemail number two five one two one six, nineteen seventy six.
That's two five one two one six, nineteen seventy six,
sixty eight year old Chris. I hope you're wrong about Alabama.
I hope that the players themselves on the team UH
take more self pride and ownership of their performances and

(06:33):
really destroy Auburn. This would it would be very enjoyable
to see an ultimate destruction of the Auburn Tigers. But
I guess we'll all have to wait for the game
to get played again. The voicemail two five one two
one six, nineteen seventy six to leave a message for
the Uncle Henry Show on voicemail. Now, let's say I
got a few more voicemails I want to get to.

(06:56):
I got a voicemail from Nevco Bill about a story
I had for you, I think last week or the
week before, about the border Patrol in our country starting
to monitor drivers in the United States, monitoring us for
our suspicious travel patterns. Now, if you missed that, here's

(07:17):
what that said.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
An Associated Press investigation finds the US Borter Patrol has
set up a secretive surveillance network of cameras, license plate readers,
and algorithm flags to focus on American drivers. AP reports
the agency is monitoring millions of American drivers to identify
and detain those whose travel patterns it deems suspicious. Suddenly,

(07:41):
drivers find themselves pulled over, reportedly for speeding or some
small infraction, only to be searched and in some cases arrested.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Okay, so suspicious travel patterns I'm going to guess this
has to do with back and forth to the border.
Would that be it? All right? I got the message
from Navco Bill about these suspicious travel patterns.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
Hey, Uncle Henry, you were talking about suspicious travel patterns there.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah, and oh yeah, this's now Kobe Bill.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
By the way, I think if you're an Alabama tag
or rental tag rental car and you're traveling saved between
the Walmart on imaging and I sixty five say out
to Colorado and back, yeah, that might be a suspicious

(08:33):
travel pattern, or any other state where they have legalized
the gateway drug. Merriw jawanna huh. Anyway, have a good day.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
All right, thank you Navco Bill. So aren't you Colorado
tourists keep that in mind? You could be a suspicious
travel pattern. All right, back with more after the break.

(09:13):
This is the Uncle Henry Show here on news radio
seven ten WNTM. We have news headlines coming up in
ten minutes. Before we get to the news headlines, I
have some more voicemailing. Perhaps time for a news item now.
A couple of weeks ago, I think I was talking
here on the Uncle Henry Show about new exhibits opening

(09:35):
up at the golf Quest Maritime Museum's I know that's
there's a different name for it now. They call it
the Maritime Museum of the guff or something like that.
And they've got new exhibits coming in. They're going to
be putting in a new Jimmy Buffett exhibit. They're trying
to trying to figure out ways to get more people
to go into that dad gum boondoggle. And I was

(09:56):
talking a couple of weeks ago. I was just talking
about how that one project, one of the biggest boondoggles
for the Mobile Waterfront, so much wasted federal money, wasted
local money. It was just a bad idea, should never
have been built, and we've got to figure out ways
to make it work now, trying to figure out ways

(10:18):
to come up with new exhibit ideas, trying to get
people to go down there for this thing never and
I wouldn't be as upset about it if we didn't.
If some of whoever the politicians were that thought it
was a good idea initially, if they could just come
forward briefly and say, you know what, we were wrong,
and we're sorry. We're wrong, and we're sorry and we're

(10:41):
gonna we're gonna try to help you figure out ways
to turn this moondoggle into not as big of a
moondoggle as it's turned out to be. All. That's all
I wish, that's all I act. You know, nowadays, a
lot of politicians could calm the country down if they
would step forward and say, you know what, a lot
of the ideas we've had and passed into law, we're

(11:01):
not actually that good, and we apologize. I'd like that
call me down if they'd at least apologize. Anyway. Snake
Trapper heard me talking about the boondoggle of the the
once was once called the guff Quest, and he foiled
this voicemail.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
Hey Ander Snake Trapper, Hey man, I was listening to
your show after six o'clock where you were talking about
the Maritime Museum and how.

Speaker 7 (11:32):
Much of a boondoggle it was, a man, and I
agree with you one hundred percent.

Speaker 6 (11:38):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (11:38):
But man, I'll tell you I love this city and
I always have.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (11:43):
This is the type of city where you could be born,
broke and naked and it's your hard work, worker, you
can make it in this city on remmy And I
don't know what to do with that boom doggle. They
got down there, and I know you was trying to
find a solution. But listen, man, uh, I would be
willing to go, uh set over one of them dunk taints,

(12:07):
I think is what they call it, where you're setting
up over this tub of water and uh these folks
come up and they pay a dollar and they get
to throw three balls at this little round target and
if they can hit it, you know it'll dunk in
the water.

Speaker 5 (12:25):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (12:25):
Look man, like I said, I love the city and
I'll be willing to go.

Speaker 8 (12:29):
Sit on them dunk K'TU for anybody that wants to
come and pay a dollar to take three shots to
try to sink the old snake trapper, Uncle Henry.

Speaker 7 (12:39):
Uh, I'm sure it won't bring on nearby as much
as what.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
That uh Jimmy Buffett exhibited do that.

Speaker 7 (12:45):
That'll that that'll be great from mobile and I think
it'll do well. Uh But yeah, man, I think I
could get under some people's skin. There's people out there
that privately love to be able to come over there
and dunk the old trapper. You know that may pay
a dollar to take three shots at me.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Uh, I can you know snake Trapper, This would this
would earn a lot of money. Not with you, though,
I think you're you're, you're, you're way too likable for
people to want to really line up to dunk you.
But if it were, if it were politicians down there,
if they made it every Saturday, politicians in a dunk tank,

(13:26):
raise a lot.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
Of money, do it all weekend and uh, the people
trying uh to throw the balls, I'll aggravate the crap
out of I'll be talking smack to them and get
them to, you know, pay a dollar and then they'll
if they miss it, I mean, with me agitating them,
I'll make them. I'll make them spend another of dollars.
But yeah, man, if they'll help mobile get out of

(13:49):
that big old boone dog along by the way, Man,
do you know who's responsible for that?

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (13:56):
Was that mister Sam Jones over Henry?

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (13:59):
If my mind serves me correctly, I believe that Sam
Jones was a part of that big old boom doggle.
I like that word boom.

Speaker 8 (14:09):
You have a good day, my buddy.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Snake Trapper. Thank you very much for your voicemail voice
my number two five one two one six nineteen seventy six.
That's two five one two one six, nineteen seventy six
to leave a message for the Uncle Henry show. Now,
I'm I'm not exactly sure who who all of the
people involved were because I think a lot of people
were involved at the inception of the National Maritime Museum

(14:34):
of the Guff formerly known as the Golf Quest Boondoggle Museum.
But I think that Eb Peebles came up the with
the idea with Mike Dow because Mayor Dow had a
revitalization effort for the waterfront. I think toward the end

(14:56):
of his term mobile landing. Does that ring a well,
I think it was Eb Peoples and Mike Dow, but
I'm not exactly sure. But Sam Jones was the mayor
when I think construction started, but I think it was
I think it was Dow and Peebles were some of

(15:18):
the main folks involved. And that's why well, look, I
don't have time to get into it, but anyway, it'd
be nice if there'd be some public statements saying, hey,
it was a bad idea, we we we apologize for
all the wasted tax dollars. All right out of time,
Thank you for listening. To the Uncle Henry Show, and

(15:39):
I apologize for the wasted time. As they say in Sarahland,
have a good one, as they say in Theodore, take
it easy, all right Later
