(01:22):
news Radio seventy ten WNTM. Thank you very much for
listening to The Uncle Henry Show. I appreciate it very
very much. Here we are together once again, me and you.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
It's just the two of us.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
You're trying to figure out what is going on in
the world around us. And i'd like to before I
talk about all and we've got so many issues to
talk about, so many news items to talk about.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Just a world. It's just just just.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
All kinds of things going on all over the planet.
But before we get to any of that, I would
just like to think, I'd like to thank the Alabama
Crimson Tide Roll tad Roll for their wonderful performance as
they destroyed Georgia playing in Georgia's home stadium. What a pleasure,
What an unexpected pleasure. Yes, I've gotten to the point
(02:14):
where I don't know. I just don't know what's gonna
happen when Alabama shows up to play football.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
And what a pleasure. It was.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
It was such a pleasure to see Alabama do what
they did with Georgia. What it was just the positive emotions.
I don't know what kind of brain chemicals were secreted
in my brain, the dopamine, all the different things up
in there and your brain that scientists to figure it
out that when you like something, when something's good, your
(02:42):
brain just starts secreting this stuff up in there. Whatever
was secreted up in there was good.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
It was very good.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I enjoyed the natural high. All of you people out
there are seeking all these artificial highs, trying to eat
your all these different THC gummy things, and you're trying
to get selts of water with gummysmy gummy fluid in it.
I don't even know what's in there THHC Seltzer's, whatever
(03:09):
it is you're looking for all these unnatural highs. Got
a natural high. Got a natural high Saturday night when
the Alabama Crimson Tide beat Georgia. What an incredible I
thank you so much, thank you to the Alabama Crimson
Tide for what. I don't know if they were giving
them bonuses, if it was extra money, or I don't
(03:29):
know what it was, whatever it was, whatever, if it
came from extra money, whoever ponied up for it, thank you,
whatever it was, it was wonderful. What a wonderful blessing
it was to see Georgia get destroyed. And it was
a complete destruction. And what I mean by that is
just the not only were they beaten with points, they
(03:54):
didn't score enough points to win, but also just this
looks on the faces of the Georgia coaching staff. Kirby
Smart seemed uh he he looked like he needed medical attention.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
He did.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
I thought, is it Can they still use smelling salts
in college football because Kirby Smart needed some smelling salts
under his nose after that game.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Just come on, come on, Kirby, wake up. It was wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Thank you so much to the Alabama Crimson Tide for
the victory over Georgia.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Now, over the.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Weekend I saw the game. I did not see the
game at home the way that I would normally want
to see a game or anything else. Now that I'm
a married man, I go I go places because I'm
told to. And over the weekend I was told that
I was going to a condo. Yes, a condo, not
(04:47):
a prestigious mobile condo like on Grant Street, but I
was I went to a condo down an Orange Beach.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
A friend of my wife.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
A friend of my wife invited us to come down
there and stay overnight and enjoy the luxuries of the
beach in Orange Beach, and also to watch the Alabama
game with them and their adult children. And that was
kind of fun because there was a twenty nine year old.
Normally I like to watch football games with elderly people
(05:21):
because we put it in proper perspective. But I was
watching with a twenty nine year old, and I did not.
I enjoyed the youthful enthusiasm the young man.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
He was up.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
He was walking around, constantly, pacing, getting near the television.
He would say when Alabama didn't do well, he would
go stand in a certain spot in the room. It
was just it was just a lot of fun to
see the young man pacing around. All of us that
were old enough knew better and remained seated with the
young twenty nine year old going here and going there.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
And this so.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
The point of this story. Watched it with this family
of people that I didn't know well. And then it
was into the fourth quarter, my wife was sleepy, and
so she wanted to go into the the guest bedroom
and go to sleep, and I went with her. And
ordinarily I would never reveal to you anything that would
(06:19):
happen in any bedroom that I would share with my wife.
It's none of your business, to be frank with you.
But we were in there and the TV was on
in the bedroom and I was watching the Alabama crimson
time beating Georgia into submission in the fourth quarter, as
my wife slept, and after the game.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Right after, right after the.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Alabama wins the game, we're in We're in the bedroom
in the condo, and I had the sound down because
I'm respecting my wife's slumber as I'm enjoying the Alabama victory.
And as were there in the bedroom with the door closed,
I'm hearing a light tapping. There was a light tapping
(07:05):
on my bedroom door. And I thought to myself, what's
going on. It's you know, it's late at night. Somebody's
what is going on? And without me, I didn't say anything.
I didn't get up out of the bed. The door opened, Yes,
light tapping, and then the door opens and it's the
(07:31):
twenty nine year old the twenty nine year old.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
He was.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
He was bent over like at doorknob level, and he
stuck his head in the bedroom and said in a
like a stage whisper, the kind of you know how
people will whisper and everybody can hear it.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
He said in a in a.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Whisper, Alabama beat Georgia roll ted rope, and then he
shut the door.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Yes, that's yes, I had that.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
I had that kind of a game atmosphere where even
the sanctity of my my marital bedroom was interrupted by
a young man to tell me that Alabama had won
and beaten Georgia roll time role. And I'll tell you this,
(08:24):
Ordinarily I would not like the sanctity of my bedroom interrupted,
but because because it was to announce an Alabama victory
that I already knew of, I accepted it and I
even almost enjoyed it. But the enthusiasm was so great
(08:45):
that the young man he had to share it with us.
He wanted to spread the joy, and there was plenty
of joy. Uncle Henry's show continues here on news radio
(09:17):
seven ten WN ten. It's five twenty news headlines coming
up in ten minutes. Telephone number here if there's something
you want to bring up two five one four seven
nine two seven two three. That's two five one four
seven nine two seven two three email address Uncle Henridiheartmedia
dot com. Now let's see before I go off of
(09:42):
the topic of the Alabama psychological destruction of Georgia, I
do have voicemail about that game that I would like to.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
I would like to get to here.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Now we have a caller named Jimmy the Economist that
is a Georgia fan. I would like to uh bless him.
I hope he's doing well today.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
This was phoned in by sixty eight year old Chris
of west Locksley.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
This is my friend, Jimmy.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
Roll tied roll o tied rope.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
All right, sixty eight year old Chris, thank you. Now,
I'd like to point out that that voicemail was not
created by a I. It wasn't That was not some
fancy computer generated audio playlet. That was created by sixty
eight year old Chris of west Locksley using a phone
calling into the Uncle and New show voicemail. And he
(10:55):
did it all with his own his own mouth, his
own head, much like Jonathan Winters. It was very sixty
year old Chris, very similar to something I would expect
from Jonathan Winters.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
So thank you for that.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That was a wonderful thing to depict the to have
some type of little almost audio cartoon of Alabama's destruction
of Georgia.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Now one more thing on that from sixty eight year
old Chris of west Locksley.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
B God huh uncle.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Personal opinion time here on my part, Oh, personal opinion.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Time, Personal opinion time, personal opinion time, personal opinion time to.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
Last year we lost when we lost to Vanderbilt the
week following the big victory over Georgia.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Right now, this is I'm pausing there just to underline
this for myself. Last year, sixty eight year old Chris saying,
last year we lost the Vanderbilt the week following a
victory over Georgia.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
I truly believe last year we lost when we lost
to Vanderbilt the week following the big victory over Georgia.
I think we were still too busy celebrating the victory
over Georgia. And if you'll call coach Staban always had
a motto standing rule, whatever you want to call it,
twenty four hour route. In other words, by the time
(12:19):
they hit twenty four hours after that last victory on
to the next one. Well, I'm hoping and I'm thinking
the guys will have the mindset that this time. Yes,
it was a big victory over Georgia Saturday night. However,
this Vanderbilt team coming to Tustallista Saturday is even better
than the one they had last year. They're gonna be
(12:40):
a tough out. So just keep that mind, fans. That's
just my opinion.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Rollside, roll till thank you sixty it go, Chris for
reminding us. And I never thought I never thought i'd
live to be this age, really, and I also never
thought that that I would live to see Vanderbilt be
a threat.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
Just what planet is? This?
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Is?
Speaker 4 (13:06):
This earth? It is?
Speaker 1 (13:09):
But that's what has happened to college football. You know
they've screwed up college football when you got to worry
about Vanderbilt.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
That's how you know.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
That's how you know they've screwed up college football when
you've got to worry about Vanderbilt.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Two five to one, four seven nine three the telephone
number here on the Uncle Henry Show. But sixty eight
year old Chris, thank you for that voicemail about all
that now? Also kind of intersecting with the world of
college football.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Is that.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
The news was out today that Paul Finebaum, the very
famous sports talk show host, that Paul Finebaum is considering
a run for the Senate of the United States of America.
That Paul Finebaum and I still this still feels like
(14:12):
a joke, but I guess it's not. He did an
interview with Clay Travis. Paul Finebaum sang, and I know,
I don't. I'll paraphrase all of it, that that he's
thinking about running, he's going to make up his mind soon,
that the assassination of Charlie Kirk really really set him off,
(14:33):
and he said that he thought about it and just
well you can find the interview that he did with
Clay Travis. But Paul Finebaum, Now, I was shocked. In fact,
sixty eight year old Chris sent me the story, and
I thought I was being pranked because it's the story
claims that Paul Finebaum would run as a Republican. And
(14:58):
also Paul Finebaum tells Clay Travis that he voted for Trump. Now,
I haven't listened to Paul fine Baum in quite a
while because I'm working when he's on, and also I'm
on at the same time he is. I think, so
it come makes it hard, makes hard to listen when
I'm working, and then on against him. Now, I'd always
(15:19):
assumed through the years, making an assumption. I know I'm
not supposed to make assumptions or draw conclusions, but I'd
always made the assumption that he was a liberal and
a leftist because he had a law degree. In most
of the Southern lawyers that I meet, I'd say about
(15:40):
eighty percent of them that I meet are very arrogant liberals.
Even the nice ones. You know who you are. You
try to be nice to me, but you're still arrogant.
But anyway, most of the Southern lawyers I've meant have
been liberals. And he also was a newspaper columnist. In
about ninety percent of the newspaper people I've met at liberals,
(16:03):
I just made the assumption. He's working in media, worked
for a newspaper, had a law degree. Gotta be a
lib Gotta be Now he's telling Klay Travis that he
that he voted for Trump and that he would run
as a Republican in the state of Alabama. Now I
(16:30):
think he'd win. I do again. Now this is based
only on personal.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Opinion, Personal Opinion time.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Yes, I believe. I believe he would win. I know
there's a bunch of other people that have a lot
of money as far as political donations, ready to go
running for Senate. I still think he'd beat him. He would,
especially if he's really if he's sincere about being a Republican,
if he's sincere about all of that, he is a
(17:03):
better He's going to be a better communicator than anybody
would run against.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
He would know.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Based on what he's done all these years. He would
know how to speak to the voters. He would know
how to do it in a brief but very impactful way.
I think he'd steamroll people if he decides to run.
If there was a debate or something and you had
(17:30):
to listen to Barry Moore or fine Bomb. More on
this after the break, but Paul Finebaum possibly running for senate.
(18:13):
Thank you so much for listening to the Uncle Henry Show.
It is five thirty five. Telephone numbers two five one,
four seven nine two seven two three. That's two five
one four seven nine two seventy two three.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
Hello color, Hey, good head, Look Henry.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
Cliff Cliff, you are live on the radio.
Speaker 8 (18:38):
Ok, Henry, you played that commercial with Chuck Schumer. Do
you you the American people realize that when they say, well,
we know what the American people want, sixty percent of
the people seeing you know, sixty percent of the people
talking to him.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
I'm with you, but they'll.
Speaker 8 (18:58):
They'll tell you sixty percent of American people won't this
and won't that. No, they don't you coming over them
lives all on your own because people in Chicago, you
come out making the people safe. Uh, they won't one
point five trillion dollars in order to pass the budget
(19:20):
bill so that they can, they say, pay for healthcare
for people in the rural areas. Now, these people are Democrats.
Are just like a moss. It's okay to lie to
the infidel if it's gonna further your call. So, just
(19:41):
like a moss, we just infidels and collateral damage. But
a lot of the American people are not swift enough
to get that. I don't know anybody saying don't don't
bring the National Guard in. I don't know what anybody's
saying any of this thing. But we know what the
national do. We know what the most of people saying
sixty eight percent of the people saying they do not
(20:03):
want this, and they do not want that. Sixty eight
percent of the people in the city is where they died.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I know you're Lyve, Look I'm completely with you most
of them. Look, the American people would like Congress to
actually work half the time.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
They're not up there doing anything.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
Hey, on top of that one point pold trillion, they
want another fifty five or sixty billion to finish off
the one of those non non governmental agencies. Yes, so
they can finish paying off the people they had on
the NNGO nngas. They they're blatant with what they're doing,
(20:50):
and they had nothing to do with the safety or
anything having to do with the people of America. I'll
be glad when these people wake up. Those people out
they're fighting the UH. All the ice is all the
people that are fighting the UH, the border patrols and all.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Of this stuff.
Speaker 8 (21:09):
I wish these people to just load up on these
rubber bullets. They'll find out it costs him too much.
They ain't making good enough money to be with them
rubber bullets running at them all to get them out
the street right quick.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Yeah, yeah, I will see.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Okay, Henry Well we're we're still waiting to see. If
they round up enough of them, they'll they'll lose their
appetite for storming federal buildings.
Speaker 8 (21:36):
If them rubber bullets hit right all in the butts
and stuff, they'll realize it's a cost and if you,
if you want to pay the costs to be the fosse,
then they'll stand out there, but you won't see a
lot of them.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Yeah, bless the Okay, Cliff, thank you very much, Thank
you for blessing the program with your phone call, you know,
Chuck Schumer and the newsbreak saying that they have all
these things that the American people want.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
Now, I would think that.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Most of the Congress, in both political parties, this is
just once again, personal opinion.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Time, personal opinion time, personal opinion time, personal opinion time.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Most of them, I've noticed this, and this goes for
both parties. Most of them don't really seem to care
what the actual voter wants. Most of them really seem
to care about what the donors, what the big money
donors want. So it's really whatever whatever they want. Whatever
the Democrats are proposing is not some organic grassroots it's
(22:45):
it's what the big donors want, and that will also
happen on the Republican side from time to time. But yeah,
it does. You get to a point when you hear
Congress talking about what do the American people want? When
have they really cared?
Speaker 4 (23:00):
I hate to be that cynical with you.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
On a Monday, two five to one four seven nine
two seven two three. The telephone number that's two five
to one four seven nine two seven two three. Email
address Uncle Henriet diheartmedia dot com. So before I went
to break a minute, I mentioned to you that there's
the news story out that the radio sports talk host
(23:23):
and TV sports talk host Paul Finebaum is considering a
run for the United States Senate, where he would have
residency in Alabama allegedly and then run for the Senate
as a Republican, as an alleged Trump voting Republican.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Now, think about.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Next year, if we have Tommy Tuberville running for governor,
if we have AJ mccerron, former Alabama quarterback A J.
Mc karen running for lieutenant governor, and we have Paul
Finbaum running for the United States Senate. Now I think
(24:09):
they'd all win. I do, I really do.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
I think they'd win.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Think about just think about the message to the rest
of the country. What a wonderful message, What a wonderful
message to the rest of the country. If we have
a former Auburn head coaches are governor, and we have
a former Alabama and pro quarterback as our lieutenant governor,
(24:34):
and we have a sports talk show host as a
senator representing us in the United States Senate, think about
the wonderful message. Think about the wonderful message that would
send to the rest of the country. What would that
message be. I think it would be something like, Hey, hey,
(25:03):
rest of the country, we like to have fun down
here in Alabama.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
We do.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
We like to have fun down here in Alabama. Look,
got Tubberville up there, got AJ up there. We elected
AJ because the guy he's got a great arm and
he does and we got fine bomb in the Senate.
Because all we ever see senators do is talk. Why
not elect one of the best talkers in the country.
(25:29):
If we're gonna have a bunch of people up there
just running them ound, getting theatrical in those big hearings.
You may have noticed that a lot of these hearings
nothing happens. A lot of these big Senate committee meetings
and they'll grill people and you'll say, wow, look, Senators
so and so, really put that person in their place.
(25:50):
Does anything ever amount from it? Does anything ever amount
from it? Now, they're just up there putting on a
show for us. Why wouldn't you send somebody up there
that knows how to put on a show, to actually
put on a show. And I think the message we
had Tuberville as governor and AJ mccerron as the lieutenant governor,
(26:15):
and Paul Finbaum as a senator, they rested the message
to the rest of the country would behave we like
to have fun down here in Alabama? Whatch Come on
down here, Come on down here, Come do business down here,
Come on, move your family down here.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
We'll grill out with you.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Here's a beer. We'll offer you a beer. Come on
down here and have a beer with us, and grill
out with us. Got some burgers on the grill. I'm
going to watch some football we have. We're open for
fun down here. I think it would make us a
very inviting state. I think it would. Now Florida has
(26:56):
all the fun of the beaches. We don't have as
much beat, but think of the fun level when you've
gotten Tubby and aj and fine bomb up there. I'm
waiting somebody get in touch with Scott Hunter and get
him to run for something. There's other state wide offices,
(27:19):
Scott Hunter. Why do I get Scott Hunter? Get him
to become attorney general or something. And Jake Coker. Jake Coker,
he helped Alabama win the twenty sixteen National Championship game
versus Clemson. Get Jake Coker into office. He could be
on the PSC Let's fill our state offices with some
(27:42):
football people. It is five point fifty here at news
(28:07):
Radio seventy ten WNTM Uncle Henry Show. If you like
to email, if you'd like to send an old fashioned email,
you can do that. Mymail addresses Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia
dot com. That's Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. And
I'll tell you that because I got an email from
(28:31):
Sandford listening in sarah Land, Alabama. Let me go to
the Uncle Henry Show email inbox. The email reads as follows,
good morning, Uncle Henry. This email arrived this morning at
nine thirty eight am. The email reads, good morning, Uncle Henry.
(28:56):
I was just listening to your podcast in Possum Friday
and enjoyed it as usual.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Now, let me pause his.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Email to explain that Friday show. On Friday Show this
past Friday, I talked about how I started my Friday
morning right right before sunrise, one of my dog's Velma,
caught a possum in the backyard, and we got the
(29:25):
dog inside the house. And when I went to to
to dispatch the possum, the possum had been playing possum.
The possum left, so the possum escaped my dog by
playing possum. But anyway, and that Friday show I titled
Possum Friday, so he listened to that. He says, I
was just listening to your podcast entitled Possum Friday and
(29:49):
enjoyed it as usual. I planned to attempt to attach
a video of a stray feral cat that has been
hanging around our house for the past few months. She
had ki kittens, probably under my deck, and I have
only seen one of the kittens as it got caught
in a live catch squirrel trap which I had on
our front porch because the squirrels constantly come on our
(30:11):
porch and dig in our potted plants. I let the
kitten out when the mama cat came to the front
steps looking for the six to eight week old kitten.
The video I will try to send you is of
the mama cat eating food which we put out for
her from a bowl in our backyard. The bowl is
(30:32):
directly in front of a home security camera which I
keep on the bricks around our firepit. This camera position
gives me a good view of the various wildlife that
frequents our backyard, since there is a forty acre field
directly behind our home. I have video deer, black bears,
(30:53):
i'm on, a raccoon with her four babies, numerous possums,
the mama cat, tufok, a coyote in even a scaly
back pine bark lizard that got up close to the camera.
The video shows the cat eating while watching for the
(31:15):
fox sneaking around. The cat then chased the fox away
and the fox made another run towards the camera. I
have already shared the video with Snake.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Trapper and he liked it.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Snake Trapper and I regularly share videos with one another.
Have a great week in that email from Sandford in
sarah Land, and then he did send me the videos
and I did enjoy the exciting wildlife videos from Sarah Land.
So Sandford, Sandford, thank you for your email and congratulations
(31:55):
for having a point in your life where you can
enjoy this. This, This is a very serene this to me,
this sounds serene. Now to you, maybe you're a very
busy person and it doesn't sound like a lot of
fun just watching for the bears and the coyotes and
the foxes. This sounds serene to me. The idea of
(32:17):
being there and Sarah Land enjoying all of the amenities
that Sarah Land has to offer, and also enjoying the
wildlife entertainment that Sarah Land has to offer. What a
wonderful thing. Sandford, thank you very much again for your email.
And I'm glad you've got a relationship with Snake Trapper
(32:38):
where you can exchange videos with each other. All right,
let's see, I have got about one minute left in
this segment.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
Call her. We got about one minute.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
That's fine. I wait, does it mean yes?
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Indeed?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
What's going on, Henry? They believe Snake Trapper could have dated.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
Eli May, He could have dated l He May.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Yes, I believe that that he could have dated l
he May. L He May would have been fond of
a snake trapper as.
Speaker 8 (33:11):
A young man.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Oh you really think so? Now what do you have been?
You know, they the clamp At kids seemed to be
very strong. Would would would she be able to handle
snake trapper? Knowing that he was still not going to
be up to up to Clampet standards.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
I don't know. I mean, who's to say he's not
up to clamp At standards? And you know anybody that
you can trap the wild snakes and other different critters.
You know, we got our own turtleman here on the coast.
I don't know if he grabs bobcats with his bare
hands like the turtleman. But uh, you know I did.
I wanted to tell you I broke the curse. Uncle Henry,
(33:50):
remember me telling you about the Alabama curse that I
could never watch an Alabama game without him losing.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Oh, you broke the curse.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
I broke the curse. Congratulation chance. I took the chance
and went ahead and watched the game, and it was
it was one of those kind of games I like.
I don't like a crushing I don't I don't like
a crushing victory.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
I love them.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
I'm Chadford gram with the speaker's lobby. Here's what happened.
It says, the Uncle Henry Show here on News Radio
(34:36):
seventy ten WNTM, thank you for listening to the Uncle
Henry Show. Now, in this half hour show, I'm going
to get to some voicemail from listeners and perhaps a
news item or two that I missed. Now, let me
start off. Let me start off with a voicemail. Now,
(34:58):
last Friday, on the Friday edition of The Uncle Henry Show,
I had a message from longtime caller Buford, and he
was reminiscing about another talk show caller named Freddie. Now,
Freddie used to call the Uncle Henry Show for years
and years back when I was doing morning radio here
on News Radio seventy ten WNTM, and Buford was a
(35:21):
fan of Freddy, even though he didn't agree with Freddy.
Here is another call. Buford made another phone call about Freddy.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
An of this.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
Here's Henry thinking of Freddy and the calls he used
to call him when I'm from My favorite Freddy moment
was when he was a guest in the studio on
your radio program. And uh, I don't quite remember if
it was he got he got penned against the wall
on a political fact or some debate or something like that.
(35:52):
But anyway, he was ready to leave the show, but
it wasn't time for him to go, I guess, and
so uhant you he had to go put some money
in the parking meter, and uh, it's the old Ihurst
should buy Henry he left, tell him you had to
put money in the parking meter and you and after
(36:13):
he walked out, he's like, we don't have parking meters in.
Speaker 7 (36:16):
The parking lot.
Speaker 6 (36:17):
And uh, Henry, I have used that, especially if the
wife dragged me to some kind of dag on an
event downtown. I didn't want to be at you know,
we gotta put money in the parking meter and and.
Speaker 7 (36:31):
Just vacate the premises.
Speaker 6 (36:33):
But I tell you it, Old Freddie was a character, Henry,
He really was.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
I thoroughly enjoyed him.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
Anyway, Henry just wanted to bring that little tidbit up,
a little blash from the past.
Speaker 7 (36:44):
You have a good day, you Ford.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Thank you very much. I appreciate your your message and
your Now I don't remember that at all. I have
no memory of what you've just described. I have no
memory of him leaving the show. Now I believe you.
It's it's I I have trouble remembering all of the shows.
There have been many, many of them. Now I've gone
(37:06):
into my archives and for the rest of this segment,
I'm going to share with you a call that was
a perfect example of a Freddie call. And the reason
it's a perfect example of a Freddie call is he
changes subjects. He'll be in the middle of something and
completely change the subject and would always get me confused.
(37:28):
So this call happened in December, close to Christmas years ago.
Here is Freddy being Freddie on the Uncle Henry Show.
Speaker 7 (37:45):
Freddy, good morning, Yes, good morning, Okahenra. I know you'd
probably be taking off for the rest of the week
pretty soon a year, but I just want to wish
you and your family and your listen order happy holidays,
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year's, et cetera. But my call
this morning is that do you think my governor would
(38:09):
consider my Lord and Savior and the illegal in this
state if if the event had occurred like we read
about it in our history in the Bible, as our
Savior coming into the in the in the in the
person of a human being, in a version who was
not married. How would they characterize that to day if
(38:32):
if mister Mintler had to be in control of that.
They they've done so much to make us state take
a step back with them progress to them. I don't
know what to say about it, but I do recall
years ago, Henry.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Well, let me, can I answer you you have to question?
Speaker 4 (38:49):
May I answered, yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
Well, if if if the the Virgin Mary gave birth
to Jesus in Alabama, he would be an anchor baby
and he would, uh, he would be a citizen of
the United States of America and of Alabama.
Speaker 7 (39:06):
That's that's your Well, you're the you've.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Come up with this ridiculous, uh set of what ifs?
Speaker 7 (39:15):
Can I care on because I don't even want to
comment on that.
Speaker 4 (39:19):
But well you don't want You're the one that brought
it up. You brought you brought it up, and now
you don't want to comment on it.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
All right, go ahead, Freddy, Merry Christmas, go.
Speaker 7 (39:29):
Ahead, thank you. Uh. That was the time, as a
young person, we had a mayor in this city named
Joe Langham. Yes, and when things got out of control,
whatever be between the races or whatever the city needs,
he can always fall back on the ministers in this
city to pass it from Dolphin Street, Baptist Bishop Tulan,
(39:50):
Revend Tunsta, Bishop Philip, he called these ministers in and
tell him what this city was facing. He did that
because these people have had influence on other people in
this city and this crime situation up hearing. Do you
know how I was? I was. I got this ticket
to to go see the Alabama LSU game, but I saw, well,
(40:12):
one of the representeds Louisiana say they need to call
a National Guard out to patrol that city because it's
out of control. Two young kids, two babies, was killed
a couple of days ago over there and there and
outrage over there with the crime situation. And I look
at this day and I thought about it. I said, now,
everybody in the state, and I'm a Christian and the
(40:34):
Bible said now should not kill. But do you know
if we if some of these women had not aborted
some of those kids they was having, do you know
that we would be in a bad situation right now. Henry,
by the way, this is the first day of falls.
So if I sounded like a little immaturity to you,
that's blaming on that this is.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
The first day of falls, a first day winter.
Speaker 7 (40:56):
Uncle Hendry. I'm sorry, but if a sign sounded like
a lot up in the day with it, if these
women had not aborted some of those babies they was
caring and the way they are robbing and killing each other, now,
what would it have been like? Unc Henry fa.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
I can't believe that you're calling in. Your first part
of your call is about Jesus, and now you're saying
that abortion is good? Is that what you're saying? That,
thank goodness we have abortion? Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 7 (41:23):
I'm asking you? Do you no?
Speaker 4 (41:24):
No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
No, you are calling you are no, you're calling in.
First you brought up Joe Langon and Reverend Hunstall and
somehow switched things to the BCF Championship game in New Orleans,
and then we need more abortions. How am I supposed
to follow this? I can't make any sense of this.
Speaker 7 (41:45):
But you got a bright mind, unc Henry. You can
hand alive and tell me where I'm going wrong. I'm
asking you. I'm trying to get some enlightenment from you.
That's why I call you in the morning to try
to let you enlightenment, so my day'll be much more pleasant.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
But I'm asking you in these no think it is
a horrible It is a horrible thing to assume that
somebody needs to be aborted, that you can predict that
they're going to be a criminal from before they're born,
and that they need to be aborted.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
That's horrific.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Uh, that is that's the worst kind of I don't
want to live in a world where we think that
we need to abort people because they're going to grow
up to be criminals.
Speaker 7 (42:22):
That sound like what they said of in Germany. That Henry.
Speaker 4 (42:25):
But yeah, why are you spreading fascism? Freddy?
Speaker 7 (42:29):
But I'm not doing I'm just yeah, what is you just?
Speaker 4 (42:32):
You're the one that brought this up, Henry?
Speaker 7 (42:34):
Is the payper? These are suspicions I'm looking at They say,
the young male.
Speaker 1 (42:39):
How did you go from Mayor Langen and Reverend Tunstall
to the BCS Championship game in the National Guard? What
could you just connect that dot for me? Those are
two dots I need. Anyway, this goes on for another
three minutes.
Speaker 4 (42:56):
Yes, it goes on that.
Speaker 1 (42:57):
Yes it went on for another three minutes because I
could figure it out all right, needny wait, Yes, Freddy's
calls were remarkable. All right, back with more Uncle Henry
Show after the break. Let's take the break, it says
(43:27):
the Uncle Henry Show here on news Radio seventy ten WNTM.
Now we have news headlines coming up in ten minutes.
Before we get to the news headlines, I want to
get to some news items that I missed on Before
I do that. The voicemail number if you'd like to
(43:48):
leave a message, the voicemail numbers 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 the way Buford did in the
last segment.
Speaker 4 (44:04):
Of the show.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
Now, let me get to some news items that I
had missed I want to learn about these things now.
Over the weekend, one of the biggest taxpayer boondoggles of
all time celebrated its tenth anniversary down at the waterfront
mmobile the Gulf Quest Maritime Museum, which has been renamed
(44:28):
It was that bad. It was that bad of a
boondoggle they had to change the name of it. Yeah,
they had to change the name of it. It was
such a terrible boondoggle. Now it is the National Maritime
Museum of Art. Now, by the way, as a taxpayer, yes,
(44:48):
I do resent the fact that they built it when
they should never have built it to begin with. But
as a taxpayer, I do at this point now want
it to exceed. I want it to succeed because it's
costing us money down there. I'd like to at least
(45:08):
see people use it and utilize it and get something
out of it, because it's costing us money. Before I
get to this news item about the golf quest now
called the National Maritime Museum or whatever it's called, I
don't know that I actually remember what they have decided
to call it this week, but let me just say
I know there are probably no politicians listening, no officeholders listening,
(45:33):
because they should have better things to do than listen
to this. But if there were, hypothetically, let's play pretend.
Let's play pretend there's an elected official listening. You Elected officials,
sometimes sometimes it would be effective if you were to
apologize when you make horrible decisions, because not all of
(45:57):
us make mistakes. I make mistakes in every single segment
of the Uncle Henry Show. I do sometimes I make
mistake with every caller, or make a mistake every one
minute on the program, so I don't expect you to
be perfect. You're gonna make mistakes. It would go a
long way with me as a voter if you would
(46:18):
come out every now and again and say, you know what,
we got that wrong and we're sorry. Like, for example,
the golf quest, what a rotten idea it was. It
was rotten never it never lived up to what they
wanted it to be. They had to go, They had
to go and change the name of it and do there.
They're trying to figure out how to make it not
(46:38):
be an anchor around our neck. It'd be nice if
any of the people that voted to build it would
come out and apologize to us. I would just please,
I would. You've seen you've gotten reelected. These people get
re elected even though they make just horrendous decision, they
(47:01):
still get reelected. It wouldn't hurt you to apologize to us.
I'd feel better about my tax dollar being flushed down
the civic toilet if every now and again you'd say, hey,
you know what we were wrong on that one. We're sorry,
all right? Just think about it. An apology for the
golf quest. All right, let's go. Let's listen to this story.
(47:22):
I think Steve Alexander Foxton will tell us they had
the tenth anniversary of this giant boondoggle that has lost
money for every level of government that was involved in
the funding of it. Let's find out how they celebrated
the anniversary of the boondoggle.
Speaker 9 (47:40):
Tourism attraction in Mobile is celebrating a decade of discovery
in a big way. The National Maritime Museum of Art
held its tenth anniversary Family Fun Day yesterday. Where it's
a coffee truck.
Speaker 1 (47:54):
Now as they called it. Have they changed the name
to the Maritime Museum of Art? Is it now going
to be an art art about?
Speaker 4 (48:04):
All right?
Speaker 1 (48:05):
Never mind, I'll look it up. Never mind, I had
no clue they tacked the word art on there.
Speaker 9 (48:10):
ConA Ice hands on Activities and Music. Karen Pole tells
us that the new Jimmy Buffett exhibit will be opening
next year around this time.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
Now, see now that is actually gonna that's gonna help it.
In fact, if they manage to make it a Jimmy
Buffett Museum, then after ten years of it just wandering
in the wilderness, maybe it'll actually have an impact.
Speaker 9 (48:33):
It will be six thousand square feet and have artifacts,
Golden Platinum records, show clothes, show clothes close some shows,
along with an immersive concert experience. And she also told
us about another exhibit coming up.
Speaker 10 (48:48):
In the future in twenty twenty seven. April twenty twenty
seven will be opening an immersive walkthrough of the mobile
Tensa on Delta. It was made possible by a really
generous grant from Gomesa. It's going to be something like
we've never had before in Mobile but probably in the
state of Alabama. It's a real immersive exhibit. Another three
(49:09):
thousand square feet that'll be on the third floor.
Speaker 9 (49:12):
And there were also boats docked in front of the
museum to add to the maritime atmosphere.
Speaker 4 (49:19):
Well good, all right.
Speaker 1 (49:21):
By the way, I went to their website and it's
not the National Maritime Museum of Art, it's the National
Maritime Museum of the Guff of the Gouf.
Speaker 4 (49:32):
All right.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
Well, they'll eventually, who knows, maybe it won't be a
boondoggle in thirty years. Now out of time, Yes, I'm
out of time for this edition of the Uncle Henry Show.
I do appreciate very much you listening to it, for
whatever your purpose is, to listen to it. As they
say in Sarland, have a good one, and as they
(49:56):
say in Theodore, take it easy.
Speaker 7 (50:02):
All write later.
