Speaker 3 (06:37):
Well, you know, it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
I've seen a lot of mayors come through, like Gary
Brido and Lambert Vins all the way up through and Sandy.
So there's been a I've had a long time reporting
on these people.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, two mayors when they were on.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
The City Commission before we have the city council form
of government. Which of the mayors do you think has
been best at public speaking after out law?
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Fuh?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I think Sandy really.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I think Saindy Simpson has been extual whenever he gets
up in front of the crowd, better smoother than Lambert Memes. Well,
Lambert tend tended to go in chace rabbit several once
in a while, you know, and at what chase a rabbit?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
He'd go off on a tangent on something instead of
talking what he started out talking about. He'll end up
going someplace else, and sometimes it was.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Hard to follow, didn't Lambert mans have a tradition of
giving donuts to reporter. We had a regular Friday Boying
quote unquote news conference and he would invite the media
in for end donuts. And there's pictures, there's factual pictures
(08:03):
that are evidence that those actually happened.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
I never went to one of those, but I heard
about them. Oh yeah, they were. They were quite interesting
because he were just.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Trying to you know, I can sell very, very hospitable,
so people would treat him nice.
Speaker 2 (08:24):

Ever again, it's a very difficult business business, and God
bless the people that do it, so God bless them.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Okay, well that Johnny will get one to you. While
we got everything working, Yeah, we've got The weather is
just fine here, the seasoning, a little little bit of
breeze here there. But tomorrow we've all been hearing about weather.
We're gonna have some weather here on the Gulf coast
tomorrow evening. And this has caused what if they have
(10:46):
they moved the big Callahan Saint Patrick's thing indoors.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Well, again, I've only heard of the grape vine and
the many years that those fine folks have had this.
Three thousand people on the streets for there's Saint Patrick's party.
I do not remember even in inclement weather it was
ever canceled. And to have them or they canceled hold
on the big party. They are doing it inside, but
as we know, Callahan's is roughly a glorified living room.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Maybe fifty sixty people in their tops. It can get crimed.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Yeah, that's the tables in there, and maybe get one
hundred's tight, but with tables, and they'd be very tough.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
But to not have all those bands and all those.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
People now just Oakley alone, because it is the Oakley town,
it is a city seat it is. They don't have
to drive. They just have to put on their foul
weather gear if it's super bad, and they could walk
down there. So there is fifty to eighty people that
would just be in the neighborhood that would be at Callahan.
So it's if they do it inside on Saturday, it's
gonna be very croud.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
If nothing else. Again, I would have.
Speaker 7 (11:50):
To consult Facebook.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I'm pretty sure it's canceled, but then I would be
curious of when they they are going to reschedule.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
I'm sure the big event to another weekend.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
Okay, all right, Well just one of the cancelations and we'll,
I guess we wait on the timing to see if
more things drop off and get canceled going on through
the weekend.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Well if I am more than happy to stay home
on a Saturday, So I'm okay with that.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
And I had to ask you though, because I didn't understand.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
All I heard was there was a state of emergency
the state of Alabama. Yeah, and I didn't know if
it was from immediate when she did it, and.
Speaker 7 (12:27):
I didn't know how bad the weather it be.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I had to ask you, if you were doing this today,
that should I show up at Greers today?
Speaker 7 (12:32):
And so I'm glad it's beautiful out there right now.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Yes it is. Enjoy it?
Speaker 7 (12:36):
Why you can?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Yes it is? And yes, enjoy why you can?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Now?
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Also this weekend fair Hope Arts and Crafts Fold. Oh
have you ever been there? Oh? I used to.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I grew up in the on the Eastern Shore, so
you know, congratulating me for that.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Oh, Ron Reems ever, the reporter, you what do you lot?
Speaker 9 (12:54):
I'm looking at the Facebook that was posted yesterday.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
That's right, three three hours ago.
Speaker 9 (13:01):
Mother nature is feeling a little.
Speaker 6 (13:03):
Too irish this year.
Speaker 9 (13:05):
Our big Saturday street tent party is a no go
thanks to the storm. But the Saint Patty's Station, Adigan's
march on indoors with live music out there you go,
and it says Teddy Williams, Johnny Haysen, the Love Seats
and Billy Allen and the Polly's whoever the pollies.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
Are, they're from Tescalusa.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
All right, Ron Reems reporting live from Facebook. I like
what I say.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Look at Facebook and then you'll find out. But a
couple of years ago the fair Hope arson Craft Center got.
Speaker 7 (13:37):
Wrecked by some high winds.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
I am guarantee you.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
They are thinking about it, probably figuring out we can't
do that again.
Speaker 9 (13:44):
Well that the tenths down this afternoon.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Oh that's what happened.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
There was again Alabama State bird. I think is a
is a trampoline? Correct, the ones that go up in
the air. I would imagine a white tents in the
air is probablyably a cousin of the trampoline in the
air with all the high wind.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
Yes, indeed, yes, indeed. Now, so you grew up in
the Eastern sure you would go to the Arch and
Craft fast and I would always run.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
When I would do athletic things, I would run the
spring fever chase.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Really now, I remember going to the Arch and Crafts
still in fair Hope when it was on the sidewalks
before they.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Shrive down, and now they shut down the city. Yes,
and quite a lot of people. I think it's like
a national lake Awarrior. It's a national known thing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
The first thing that I purchased at the fair Hope's
Arch and Crafts Festival back in the day was a
pet rock.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
So that was in the seventies.
Speaker 6 (14:42):
It was a pet rock.
Speaker 7 (14:44):
Fantastic.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Yes, it will get it in the box with the holes.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
No, oh, that's a knockoff that This was a knockoff
pet rock done by an artist painted on both sides
of the rock. It's an arts and crafts festival.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
I would imagine the people listening to AM radio or
old enough to remember the seventies, yes, which is good so,
but if you're of the millennial age, a pet rock
was a novelty gift that you could buy that was
a rock that was your pet that again came in
a box with a handle on it and air holes
in the box, which I always thought was great packaging.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
Yes, indeed, yes, And it was just one of those.
It was a great idea for whoever thought capitalism at
its best exactly, yes, exactly getting people to buy rocks.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Yes, if I could do that today, I wouldn't have
to sell stupid things like leper cane buttons and T shirts.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Yes, Indy. Johnny Gwinn, by the way of Deepride Studios
dot com, lots of great podcasts there to listen to
with Johnny Gwinn. Rocket Motivation is the one you always
bring rock a motivation, The Cantering Show.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
There's a great family called the Song Life se O
n G Life, and it is a TikTok family in
California that I'm friends with. They have a family which
is usually very funny of the high jinks they get
involved in.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
And Yeah, a lot of great shows.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
And then Scott Tindall and I are working on a
new AI marketing podcast product too, so that's what we'll
have an announcement soon.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Yeah, you brought up AI. That was something that I'd
planned to ask you about today on the show about
where we are now, and it's amazing you've been diving
into it heavily, more heavily than most people do locally
with the business probably so.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Scott and I have a partner who develops an AI
and he showed us some things that we're doing, and
it is mind blowing of what those machines can learn
and the tasks they can learn. But what I'm working
on a lot is what's called an AI voice cloner,
And all I need is three minutes of your voice
and I can have you read, say, fifty Shades of
(16:48):
Gray read by Uncle Henry.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
No, but I could do it though.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
Yeh see. Now that's where we need. That's where I
wanted to be against the rules, to clone my voice
and have me say things I'd never say.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
I'll be sending you some voicemail soon with you saying
some funny things that you know, like reading like maybe
a Obama speech, okay, so in the voice of Uncle
Henry or you know you know that would or maybe
like you know, you know the writings of Carl Marx
as read by Uncle Henry, which I know you'd enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (17:20):
Well, it would be an example of the hell on
earth that AI will create.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Well again, it's like a match. You can light a
fire to save your life, or you can burn down
a forest. It's what you do with that tool. See,
maake it good or bad.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
See you've thought of making it a voice clone. I
want AI to like read all of my medical tests
and look at all of my extra Okay, that and
I want the AI to tell me what it sees
versus the human eye.
Speaker 8 (17:47):
Now that I want.
Speaker 7 (17:48):
Something to do there that is out there. I just
don't work in that world, Uncle Henry. I don't save lives.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
I make podcasts, So you know it's not really or
I get I will tell you I am on another
radio show. Yes, I will let a little little secret,
a little information out right now, I do the crypto
in the blockchain news segments. Three minutes is me doing
(18:14):
my research, writing my scripts. And actually it's a recording
of my AI voice reading my script and we play
that for the first three minutes. Wow, all right, and
most people can't tell the difference. Maybe I'll be able
to retire and still be on the air.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
That's coming, all right, We're gonna take a time out
back with more Uncle Henry Show from Greer's Saint Louis Market.
After the break, Uncle Henry Show live on location at
Greer's Saint Louis Market and Downtime Obile on Saint Louis
Street here broadcasting live until six thirty. We got the
(18:51):
low Dot Art Walk coming up tonight that is starting
up here in about ten minutes. Johnny gwinn is here

here with Siva.
Speaker 8 (19:03):
Uh yes, sir Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (19:04):
I hadn't been here two minutes and he has challenged
me to a turtle coo cook off.
Speaker 8 (19:10):
And I go by the name of Siva las Vegas.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Yes, and I'm pretty sure this one last remote.
Speaker 11 (19:16):
Cooker and have Stephen Brel against last weekend at Bio
No no.
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Step a little bit closer there. Thank you? So Siva,

Speaker 11 (19:31):
Fus time give it?
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Wait? Now why do you now? Why are you wanting
to get into a contact.
Speaker 11 (19:36):
Because I want to compete and beat Snake Trapper.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
But if you've never cooked turtle soup, why would you
pick back?
Speaker 12 (19:41):
Have the confidence that I can beat him? The last
couple of times he got beat so bad.
Speaker 11 (19:45):
I can beat him.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
Well, you know you say that his uh potato.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
Salad mustard too much mustard.
Speaker 6 (19:54):
Had had had. I had a lot of bad issues there.
So now, snake trouble, You're gonna fall for this. You're
gonna compete against somebody that's never made turtle soup.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Uncle Henry, believe it or not.
Speaker 10 (20:07):
I have never made it either, so it will be
my first time of making it.
Speaker 8 (20:12):
But now I have eate it many times. It's been
a long time since I had it.
Speaker 10 (20:16):
Now, my grandmother made the best in the world, and
if I can conjure up her recipe, I believe he'll
be in trouble.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Now, what do you so, how have you prepared? Have
you ever prepared turtle yourself?
Speaker 10 (20:29):
I have not prepared turtle myself, but I have tried
it in many different ways, but grandmother's is the best.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
This sounds like a disaster.
Speaker 11 (20:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna I'm going to practice before this for sure.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
Okay, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna buy
your what do you buy turtle meat online? Yeah?
Speaker 12 (20:47):
I think sneaked represented he phoned some on Amazon.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
Yes, or you can get it on Amazon.
Speaker 10 (20:52):
It's about one hundred and seventy dollars for five pounds.
Oh my lord, so we may just have to stick
with getting a pound of it?
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Might be and my why not just have a hot
dog grill off or something.
Speaker 12 (21:04):
No, this is fascinating, the turtle soup, especially with Steven's story.
Speaker 11 (21:08):
I thought that we need to do something like this.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
All right, Well, it is this something that you're gonna do.
You're gonna cook this turtle soup for the first time.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I'm don't make it hap it.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
It may not be soup, but it'll be turtle in
some shape form or fashion.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
All right, Well, what is it?
Speaker 12 (21:22):
So?
Speaker 6 (21:22):
Is soup the best way to have turtle? Or if
you had it in a better way.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Soup's probably the best way, Uncle Henry, like I said
when grandmother fixed it, depending on the species of turtle.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Uh, you know, you wouldn't know if it was lamb
you was having, and you wouldn't know if it was
beef or port.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
I mean, get all types of different varieties when you
when you eat turtle meat.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
So I love it, all right, And you've never had it.
You just want to you just want to have fun.
Speaker 12 (21:49):
No, No, I had it before any any restaurant I go.
If I see turtle soup, I have it.
Speaker 11 (21:54):
So I know why. It's just it's just it's just
it's just.
Speaker 12 (21:57):
Something new that I've never had come in India, so
I wanted it to try it. So when they put
up turtle soup on the menu, I'm having it.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
How long have you been here in the US from India?
Speaker 12 (22:09):
So I came in here in nineteen ninety one to
go to Southern Miss.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Okay, so you went to Southern Miss out of India.
Speaker 11 (22:16):
Yes, come straight to Southern Miss from India.
Speaker 6 (22:18):
Now why did you Why did you stay in the
south of the United States?
Speaker 12 (22:25):
Because the weather is kind of similar to the weather
that we have in the southern part of India.
Speaker 11 (22:29):
So that's why we chose.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
When you arrived in our nation. What type of food
did you gravitate toward.
Speaker 12 (22:36):
So to believe it or not, the first weekend I
had raw oysters. I'd never had raw oysters, but I
had the first first set the first weekend I was here.
Speaker 11 (22:47):
Then I had crawfish.
Speaker 12 (22:49):
So I'm I'm in the South and I'm used to
having the Southern food.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Okay, So this is had raw oysters and crawfish. Why
not have turtles.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
That's exactly right, Uncle Hendre.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
I love that the way that you think about that. Now,
you snake trapper. You you don't like the foods he
talked about.
Speaker 8 (23:07):
Uncle Henry, I will not eat an oyster.
Speaker 6 (23:10):
What now, come on, I'm gonna eat snakes. You eat snakes.
Speaker 10 (23:16):
That's because they're snakes and not horsters. I'm telling you, man, oysters.
Speaker 8 (23:19):
I just can't do it.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
You've gotten this. You're playing with me. This is an act.
Speaker 8 (23:25):
No, sir, I will not put an oyster in my mouth.
Speaker 10 (23:28):
I do not like them. I have tried them in
several different ways. I've tried them to smoked, fried, and
I've tried them raw.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
What about stewed?
Speaker 8 (23:38):
Don't believe I've ever tried them?
Speaker 6 (23:39):
And what about in gumbo or something like that?
Speaker 8 (23:42):
Know sure they will run a good pot of gumbo.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
This is really I can't believe that. You who you've
been bitten by pausonous snakes and you eat snakes. You
talked about the way to eat raccoon and the way
to eat possem and stuff, but you won't eat ois.
Speaker 10 (24:00):
I will not eat an oyster. I will eat a
chicken before eat an oyster.
Speaker 6 (24:06):
All right. Well, hey, I'm gonna be here for a
little while longer. Will you talk with me again after
the top of the hour. I want to ask some
snake questions. Yes, sir, sure we will, all right, so
Snake Trapper will be here with us after the top
of the hours. We continue here at Greer's Saint Louis
Market and Downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street. And uh, Civa,
(24:26):
you don't have any turtles here. What are you having
for dinner tonight?
Speaker 12 (24:30):
I'm going to golf sours and I don't know, probably
go to Florabama.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
All right, now, see sounds like you know what you're doing.
All right, We're gonna take a time out, have news
from Fox at the top of the hour, and then
more Uncle Henry Show Live on location here at Greer's
Saint Louis Market in Downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street.
Johnny Gwinn is here. After the break. I'm going to
(24:56):
ask him about that Cheech and Shong stuff he's drinking.
This is the Uncle Henry Show, Live on location, broadcasting
live from Greer's Saint Louis Market in Downtown Mobile on
Saint Louis Street. Uncle Henry here with Johnny Gwinn of
Deeprive Studios dot com. A lot of Uncle Henry's show.
(25:16):
Uh fans, I guess would be the word, or friends
is a better word.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
Friends and.
Speaker 6 (25:23):
I have been wonderful here. I just enjoyed seeing everybody
that we got c LD earlier. Ron Reems was here earlier,
and we still have a bunch of folks here. We're
gonna be talking to Snake Trapper here in a little
while about snakes, of course. Now, Johnny Gwinn of Deeprive
Studios dot Com has been given some things out. I
just saw you handing out huggers, leprocane huggers and buttons.
(25:43):
What is left? We're here for one more half hour.
What's left?
Speaker 5 (25:47):
I have eight fred Richardson tighten up fridge magnets. That's
all that's left of the Deep Fried Threads Empire. That's
all that's left of the inventory.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
Okay, so you the listener, stomp in but between now
and about six twenty five and you can pick up
one of these tighten up fred Richardson refrigerator bagnets while
supplies last here at Greer of Saint Louis Market. Now,
I wanted to ask you something real quick, the thing
you've been drinking? Yes, did you get it here? I
(26:17):
did buy it here, So tell us what you have
been drinking.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
So this is eighth Wonder Cannabis sparkling lime water. It's
zero calorie, zero alcohol, but has a legal amount of
CBD and THHC for the state of Alabama, where it
is an alternative to drinking a beer.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
So it is this. It is completely legal with CBD
in it. Now do you notice any relief of joint
pain or anything like that when you're drinking that?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Though?
Speaker 6 (26:48):
It's more of a euphoric feeling, is what it is.
Do you feel you for it? Not so much with
two of these.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
It's been two over quite a while, by the way,
but there's quite refreshing.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
And they come in a can.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
And I don't think Greers. I think Greers has the
permission and legality.
Speaker 6 (27:05):
Yes, of course, yes they do. All right, Well, these
are that's a whole line of things that I've never
really I haven't done a deep dive on any of
that stuff.
Speaker 7 (27:14):
I'm shocked the state of Alabama allows it.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
We are usually the fifty second state to do anything
and make things legal.
Speaker 7 (27:21):
So even though that's a joke. I know there's only
fifty states out there.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
Yes, but it's the Cheech and Chong one I had
before this one last hour.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
Yes, was much tastiers, so because I will see.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Cheech and Chong now. Was the Cheech and Shong thing
also from here? Correct? It was.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
There's many many brands here, just just like you know there's.
Speaker 6 (27:43):
Budwise and Way. Let's back up, Yes, Cheach and shongah
now have was it a sparkling water beverage from Cheechen Chong.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
It was a fruit flavored sparkling water with five milligrams
of THHC CBD in it.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
So legal in Alabama.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Cheach and Chong water, Cheach and Chong sparkling CBD water, Yes, yeah,
And I like the there's other ones I likes a
lot too, But there's a one called Easy Hemp Company.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
That I like.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
It's pretty good too, but it's great because zero calories,
zero sugar, zero alcohol.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
Let's think back. Let's say it's nineteen eighty two. Would
we believe that by twenty twenty five, Cheach and Chong
would both still be alive? Correct, and still be able
businessman selling completely legal Cheach and Chong water product.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
Now Tommy Chong has been selling I think most things
you would find in a head shop that would be
a Schlang like dope bong height. Yeah, but he was
the one that went to jail, too good to jail.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
Oh it was for selling. I can't remember why it did.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
But yes, they are still in character. They still do
get to play the cheat and Chong character and they
have been selling weed culture for almost as long as
I've been born.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
I mean, they finally you know, I think back to
the years when when they were putting out those movies
and their careers really took a nose dive when Reagan
was elected. Career it was just saying no, it really did.
Their career really hit a brick wall in the eighties
because of all that. And now here we are five
(29:34):
and they have re emerged and they're making money now.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I would say Tommy Chong has always been on brand
for the weed smoking yes, while Cheach Maron has done
a much better job of branching out into TV family
TV shows and movies and stuff. But now you still
catch them do the original Cheech and Chong still now though,
So yes, but.
Speaker 7 (29:58):
It's actually trying to watch from those movies not Stoned,
and it was very difficult.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
They're horrible, they were.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
I was like, I'm.
Speaker 5 (30:07):
Surprised I caught this as funny because it really wasn't
very funny.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
No, it was.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
It was terrible what they I will say all of
it was not funny, but most it was pretty. But again,
it was a different time, and counterculture is counterculture, Unkle Henry,
And you've never been in the counterculture.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
I don't want to be.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
But for a while we kind of were in the
counterculture because the rights started being the counterculture in the
last couple of years, which is very strange to me.
It is that the left is now the man and
the right is now the outsider, very very strange.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Strange that the simulation is liitching.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Well, when you live long enough, you see stuff like
this happen.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
Correct, they say, every stuff forty years they know there's
one big tumble and.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
You just reset and do this.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Whatever was famous forty years ago is now famous again.
So you know, if you've got bad clothing keeping around
long enough, I'll come back and say, so there.
Speaker 6 (30:57):
You go now, And you use the word bad, it
doesn't have to be. It is just an older clouth
thing correct will always ben style.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
Right.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
You go from being in the goodwill to being hit yes,
to being you know, yes, quirky and wonderful.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Now tonight here we're here at Saint Louis Market on
Saint Louis Street. Loda Artwalk has started up in downtown Mobile.
It is a roll night, roll mobile or whatever they
call it, which is not a cheech and shrong thing.
The roll mobiles where they block off the streets around
Bimble Square.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
So you can go roller skates roller skating. Yes, that's
pretty cool.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
Now you were a skateboarder, I was a skateboard that
is not allowed. You have to have roller skates to
be able, and.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
It should be skateboarders that should stay away from roller
skaters and vice versa.
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Now it's also Loda Artwalk. This month is celebrating National
Craft Month with they're going to have some kind of
children's activities in Cathedral Square where your child can paint
something or something a craft. Now, when you were a kid,
you were an artsy kid, did you do a bunch
of crafts?
Speaker 7 (31:59):
It was not an artsy kid.
Speaker 5 (32:01):
You become a graphic designer skateboard decks and album covers
and didn't realize people.
Speaker 7 (32:06):
Made money doing that stuff. But I was not a drawer.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I was a musician, but not not so much building things.
I'm still not good with making things with my hands.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
Now I could do it.
Speaker 7 (32:17):
I can photoshop, but I cannot actually make something.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
Did you ever do a craft in school?
Speaker 5 (32:22):
Part of I'm sure you know they you had art
back in the day, they used to have this thing
called art class, which I don't think they have those
things anymore in school because most of like stem stuff
now right, I don't know, I have no pay for
they can't pay for art teachers anymore, or something.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
I don't know. I've not been. I'm sure that. I'm
sure there's something going on somewhere. I'm sure I.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
Did legos and I remember linking logs, but that's not
really crafty. That's more like, well, yeah, legos are legs,
very very much are. But I guess I was thinking
of people that glue the take some sticks and some.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Sniff glue coball and I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 7 (32:59):
I used to glue.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
I'll find that as well, well, you know, taking the
glue in the uh that was a cotton ball. Oh, yeah,
a week ago on glue. That's going to be another show.
You will have to get Johnny back in next week
and maybe setting both with some type of counselor and
we can do a live on air intervention about the glue.
But so you were not a crazy You didn't do crafts?
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Is I really didn't? I found my Yeah, in my
late early twenties. I found I could do certain things
that would make something like arts and carb designs.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Okay, hey we are, We're going to take a time
out traffic weather works from our sponsors, and then back
for one more segment at Greer's Saint Louis Market in
downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street. The Uncle Henry Show
continuing on w nt M. Uncle Henry Show here at
Greer's Saint Louis Market with Johnny Gynn of Deep Fried
(33:50):
Studios and Johnny. You've given out almost all of your
refrigerator magnets.
Speaker 8 (33:54):
I'm real close.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
I think I'll keep one or two just for the records,
because I usually don't keep anything to actually make.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
Yes, so I will keep a couple of myself.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
Very very good. All right, Well, there's still time listener
if you want to grab one of these maggots. Now,
snake trapper, come here for a second. Snake trapper doing real,
real good. So is it snake season? Yem? Are we there?
I mean the temperatures are upper seventies this weekend.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
Here in Mobile. We are officially there, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (34:28):
The weather did not drop below the temperter did not
drop below sixty five and a twenty four hour period,
so all of the snakes that were in hibernation should
be coming out to day.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
Today is snake dates.
Speaker 8 (34:42):
Today is snake Day.
Speaker 10 (34:43):
Okay, that's a kind of a thermometer or a gauge,
just to you know, try to use that twenty four
hour period of where the tempter doesn't drop below sixty five.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
Now, we had a bunch.
Speaker 6 (34:56):
Of early.
Speaker 10 (34:59):
Early outers, if you would. Uh, My buddy at his
hunting camp a couple of weeks ago spotted a pretty
good sized copperhead. So uh, some come out earlier than others.
Speaker 6 (35:10):
All right, So how it should should? What is the
demeanor of the newly awakened snake, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
They are hungry because most of them have been in
hibernation for at least a month, and a snake likes
to feed at least once a month. So if you
see one sitting on side of a creek or something,
he's looking to catch a fizz a miuse a bird.
Anything that comes to there he'll try to eat, including
(35:39):
another snake.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Well, now is it a problem for human beings?
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (35:44):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 10 (35:45):
They will bite you if you mess with them, so
I wouldn't and they will be ornery because of the
fact that they are hungry.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
That's best to just leave them alone.
Speaker 10 (35:55):
Ornery, yes, or they are very honory when they first
wake up. It's like, uh, you know, they're looking for
a reason to eat something, and if it's too big,
they'll alloable to get an attitude and just buite it.
Speaker 6 (36:07):
Now, what time of year do you typically eat your
first snake? Generally about this time.
Speaker 10 (36:14):
If I mean, if I get a call and there's
a rattle snake or something that you know that somebody
wants removed, and it's a big enough one to eat,
this would be a good time of the day. I
expect I'll start hearing people finding them, you know, in
theres where they shouldn't be.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Okay, all right, So and then will you let me
and the listeners know when you finally have your first
snake of the year.
Speaker 10 (36:36):
Yes, sir, I sure will, now I didn't. It's been
several years since I've had one.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
You know, what do you mean, it's been several years
since you've eaten snake.
Speaker 8 (36:44):
Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (36:45):
If you eat a rattle snake, you need at least
a four and a half foot one. Anything under that's
kind of too small to fool with cotton mouth you know,
you want to probably at least a three and a
half foot you know, a lot bigger around than they
are along the cotton mouths are.
Speaker 8 (37:03):
But the rattle stakes.
Speaker 10 (37:05):
Now, my buddy killed one last year that I told him, Man,
I wish you would have brought to me a timber raller. Now,
timber ratler has some of the prettiest white meat you'll
ever find in the snake.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
Now, have you ever gone out to deliberately hunt snake?
Speaker 8 (37:22):
I did when I was a young man, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (37:24):
I used to actually trap when I was about eighteen
to twenty years old, or even before that, when I
was about fourteen, I was actually catching watermarksins for people
that used them to extract their venom for whatever reason.
Speaker 6 (37:40):
Yeah, we don't know.
Speaker 8 (37:41):
But and then they may have eaten some of them.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
All right, well, Snake Traveler Wall, you're gonna come in
sometime soon and do a more in depth snake show
to begin snake season.
Speaker 8 (37:51):
I will, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (37:52):
Do you remember Aid Partridge that I believe we had
him at the container y'all?
Speaker 6 (37:57):
Yeah, and talk a little bit more of that there.
Speaker 8 (37:59):
I had him at the container yard.
Speaker 6 (38:01):
Yes, I remember, Yes, Abe Partridge, the musician singer songwriter
Abe Partridge.
Speaker 10 (38:07):
Uncle Henry, he knows a lot of folks in North
Alabama that does them stake churches.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
So he told me that.
Speaker 10 (38:15):
If I ever got one that was extremely large, to
let him know that he would have a buyer for
that snake. So that would be a reason to actually
capture Moccasonzilla because according to him, I.
Speaker 6 (38:28):
Went a minute, you had a musician, Abe Partridge told
you that he was looking for large snakes that if
you ever had one, he would find a buyer for you.
Speaker 10 (38:40):
Yes, sir, I have his number today to where he
said if I get a certain size of certain species
of snakes, that he has a buyer for them.
Speaker 6 (38:49):
So I just that just amazes me that there's a
network of people out there looking for these animals.
Speaker 10 (38:56):
Well, these are part of the North Alabama Snake Worship
in group.
Speaker 8 (39:00):
I mean he's showing me a bunch of pictures that.
Speaker 6 (39:03):
They're not gonna eat it. They want to worship it.
Speaker 8 (39:05):
Uh no, sir, that's what they do.
Speaker 10 (39:07):
They I've never been to the church, but I have
seen them on TV and the way they act. They
actually get in there and just handle the snakes.
Speaker 6 (39:16):
Okay, all right, we'll see now this is I did
not expect this from it. We're getting into a new
depths with snake trapper here almost snake travel Well, well,
let's do a show soon sometime in the next couple
of uh uh, next week or the week after about
the emergence of the snake.
Speaker 8 (39:30):
Uncle Henry I would enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
Well, I would too, and that's why I invited maybe
we get away to give us a call and come
in talk about it too, you know, that would be interesting.
I talked to him a little bit. I've talked to
him a little bit, but not about that particular aspect
of his life, So that would be that would be
quite interesting to know.
Speaker 10 (39:52):
I'm not saying that Ave actually does it or has affiliated.
He just knows people that that do bound for that reason.
Speaker 6 (39:59):
All right, well, Sna, thank trapper, we are out of time.
Great talking to you.

Said to that way you get one hundred percent. But
you know, I don't know what this sounds like.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
But seeing that this is not what I would call
a broadcast, cally microphone is probably a little timmy. Well
we'll find we'll find out, because maybe tousy baggers cannot
be cheasy.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I've asked.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
We're trying to get this recorded so we can listen

area living, especially to the Loop area. But I wouldn't

That is correct, jowing every ad minute though, Ron, you're

Questions about your illustrious mobile media careers?
Speaker 2 (05:47):
That is that on the table?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Sure than anything else like Salvation Army? What about your
thoughts on the mayor's racing all that kind of stuff?
Were we able to.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Talk about that?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
It's your It's proud. I know that it's gonna be
interesting to see.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Who comes out on the top.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
You know, I got a feeling it's gonna be somebody's
gonna really be upset.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's all I can say.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Of course, as you said, there's so many, Uh only one.
Speaker 2 (06:19):

Speaker 1 (06:27):
So we'll get boy and Dad, We'll we'll get some
mind ring stuffs up next week on the Uncle Henris
shoving to have you come in live in studio.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Well, you know, it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
I've seen a lot of mayors come through, like Gary
Brido and Lambert Vins all the way up through and Sandy.
So there's been a I've had a long time reporting
on these people.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, two mayors when they were on.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
The City Commission before we have the city council form
of government. Which of the mayors do you think has
been best at public speaking after out law?
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Fuh?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I think Sandy really.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I think Saindy Simpson has been extual whenever he gets
up in front of the crowd, better smoother than Lambert Memes. Well,
Lambert tend tended to go in chace rabbit several once
in a while, you know, and at what chase a rabbit?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
He'd go off on a tangent on something instead of
talking what he started out talking about. He'll end up
going someplace else, and sometimes it was.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Hard to follow, didn't Lambert mans have a tradition of
giving donuts to reporter. We had a regular Friday Boying
quote unquote news conference and he would invite the media
in for end donuts. And there's pictures, there's factual pictures
(08:03):
that are evidence that those actually happened.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
I never went to one of those, but I heard
about them. Oh yeah, they were. They were quite interesting
because he were just.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Trying to you know, I can sell very, very hospitable,
so people would treat him nice.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Of course when the fama came around.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
They're in a workshop good or hey Ron, I'm gonna
get you in studio next week.

Speaker 8 (09:54):
Hey, we got you know, we got it on first
half hour on the phone.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
It was all you know, the fred Rickerson Titan upire

These uh, there's only a few left and they will
never be remade.
Speaker 8 (10:12):
Oh no, never.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
I'm done with creating anything that I have to prince.
Ever again, it's a very difficult business business, and God
bless the people that do it, so God bless them.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Okay, well that Johnny will get one to you. While
we got everything working, Yeah, we've got The weather is
just fine here, the seasoning, a little little bit of
breeze here there. But tomorrow we've all been hearing about weather.
We're gonna have some weather here on the Gulf coast
tomorrow evening. And this has caused what if they have
(10:46):
they moved the big Callahan Saint Patrick's thing indoors.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Well, again, I've only heard of the grape vine and
the many years that those fine folks have had this.
Three thousand people on the streets for there's Saint Patrick's party.
I do not remember even in inclement weather it was
ever canceled. And to have them or they canceled hold
on the big party. They are doing it inside, but
as we know, Callahan's is roughly a glorified living room.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Maybe fifty sixty people in their tops. It can get crimed.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Yeah, that's the tables in there, and maybe get one
hundred's tight, but with tables, and they'd be very tough.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
But to not have all those bands and all those.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
People now just Oakley alone, because it is the Oakley town,
it is a city seat it is. They don't have
to drive. They just have to put on their foul
weather gear if it's super bad, and they could walk
down there. So there is fifty to eighty people that
would just be in the neighborhood that would be at Callahan.
So it's if they do it inside on Saturday, it's
gonna be very croud.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
If nothing else. Again, I would have.
Speaker 7 (11:50):
To consult Facebook.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I'm pretty sure it's canceled, but then I would be
curious of when they they are going to reschedule.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
I'm sure the big event to another weekend.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
Okay, all right, Well just one of the cancelations and we'll,
I guess we wait on the timing to see if
more things drop off and get canceled going on through
the weekend.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Well if I am more than happy to stay home
on a Saturday, So I'm okay with that.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
And I had to ask you though, because I didn't understand.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
All I heard was there was a state of emergency
the state of Alabama. Yeah, and I didn't know if
it was from immediate when she did it, and.
Speaker 7 (12:27):
I didn't know how bad the weather it be.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I had to ask you, if you were doing this today,
that should I show up at Greers today?
Speaker 7 (12:32):
And so I'm glad it's beautiful out there right now.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Yes it is. Enjoy it?
Speaker 7 (12:36):
Why you can?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Yes it is? And yes, enjoy why you can?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Now?
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Also this weekend fair Hope Arts and Crafts Fold. Oh
have you ever been there? Oh? I used to.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I grew up in the on the Eastern Shore, so
you know, congratulating me for that.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Oh, Ron Reems ever, the reporter, you what do you lot?
Speaker 9 (12:54):
I'm looking at the Facebook that was posted yesterday.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
That's right, three three hours ago.
Speaker 9 (13:01):
Mother nature is feeling a little.
Speaker 6 (13:03):
Too irish this year.
Speaker 9 (13:05):
Our big Saturday street tent party is a no go
thanks to the storm. But the Saint Patty's Station, Adigan's
march on indoors with live music out there you go,
and it says Teddy Williams, Johnny Haysen, the Love Seats
and Billy Allen and the Polly's whoever the pollies.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
Are, they're from Tescalusa.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
All right, Ron Reems reporting live from Facebook. I like
what I say.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Look at Facebook and then you'll find out. But a
couple of years ago the fair Hope arson Craft Center got.
Speaker 7 (13:37):
Wrecked by some high winds.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
I am guarantee you.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
They are thinking about it, probably figuring out we can't
do that again.
Speaker 9 (13:44):
Well that the tenths down this afternoon.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Oh that's what happened.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
There was again Alabama State bird. I think is a
is a trampoline? Correct, the ones that go up in
the air. I would imagine a white tents in the
air is probablyably a cousin of the trampoline in the
air with all the high wind.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
Yes, indeed, yes, indeed. Now, so you grew up in
the Eastern sure you would go to the Arch and
Craft fast and I would always run.
Speaker 5 (14:10):
When I would do athletic things, I would run the
spring fever chase.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Really now, I remember going to the Arch and Crafts
still in fair Hope when it was on the sidewalks
before they.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Shrive down, and now they shut down the city. Yes,
and quite a lot of people. I think it's like
a national lake Awarrior. It's a national known thing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
The first thing that I purchased at the fair Hope's
Arch and Crafts Festival back in the day was a
pet rock.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
So that was in the seventies.
Speaker 6 (14:42):
It was a pet rock.
Speaker 7 (14:44):
Fantastic.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Yes, it will get it in the box with the holes.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
No, oh, that's a knockoff that This was a knockoff
pet rock done by an artist painted on both sides
of the rock. It's an arts and crafts festival.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
I would imagine the people listening to AM radio or
old enough to remember the seventies, yes, which is good so,
but if you're of the millennial age, a pet rock
was a novelty gift that you could buy that was
a rock that was your pet that again came in
a box with a handle on it and air holes
in the box, which I always thought was great packaging.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
Yes, indeed, yes, And it was just one of those.
It was a great idea for whoever thought capitalism at
its best exactly, yes, exactly getting people to buy rocks.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Yes, if I could do that today, I wouldn't have
to sell stupid things like leper cane buttons and T shirts.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Yes, Indy. Johnny Gwinn, by the way of Deepride Studios
dot com, lots of great podcasts there to listen to
with Johnny Gwinn. Rocket Motivation is the one you always
bring rock a motivation, The Cantering Show.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
There's a great family called the Song Life se O
n G Life, and it is a TikTok family in
California that I'm friends with. They have a family which
is usually very funny of the high jinks they get
involved in.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
And Yeah, a lot of great shows.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
And then Scott Tindall and I are working on a
new AI marketing podcast product too, so that's what we'll
have an announcement soon.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Yeah, you brought up AI. That was something that I'd
planned to ask you about today on the show about
where we are now, and it's amazing you've been diving
into it heavily, more heavily than most people do locally
with the business probably so.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Scott and I have a partner who develops an AI
and he showed us some things that we're doing, and
it is mind blowing of what those machines can learn
and the tasks they can learn. But what I'm working
on a lot is what's called an AI voice cloner,
And all I need is three minutes of your voice
and I can have you read, say, fifty Shades of
(16:48):
Gray read by Uncle Henry.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
No, but I could do it though.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
Yeh see. Now that's where we need. That's where I
wanted to be against the rules, to clone my voice
and have me say things I'd never say.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
I'll be sending you some voicemail soon with you saying
some funny things that you know, like reading like maybe
a Obama speech, okay, so in the voice of Uncle
Henry or you know you know that would or maybe
like you know, you know the writings of Carl Marx
as read by Uncle Henry, which I know you'd enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (17:20):
Well, it would be an example of the hell on
earth that AI will create.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Well again, it's like a match. You can light a
fire to save your life, or you can burn down
a forest. It's what you do with that tool. See,
maake it good or bad.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
See you've thought of making it a voice clone. I
want AI to like read all of my medical tests
and look at all of my extra Okay, that and
I want the AI to tell me what it sees
versus the human eye.
Speaker 8 (17:47):
Now that I want.
Speaker 7 (17:48):
Something to do there that is out there. I just
don't work in that world, Uncle Henry. I don't save lives.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
I make podcasts, So you know it's not really or
I get I will tell you I am on another
radio show. Yes, I will let a little little secret,
a little information out right now, I do the crypto
in the blockchain news segments. Three minutes is me doing
(18:14):
my research, writing my scripts. And actually it's a recording
of my AI voice reading my script and we play
that for the first three minutes. Wow, all right, and
most people can't tell the difference. Maybe I'll be able
to retire and still be on the air.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
That's coming, all right, We're gonna take a time out
back with more Uncle Henry Show from Greer's Saint Louis Market.
After the break, Uncle Henry Show live on location at
Greer's Saint Louis Market and Downtime Obile on Saint Louis
Street here broadcasting live until six thirty. We got the
(18:51):
low Dot Art Walk coming up tonight that is starting
up here in about ten minutes. Johnny gwinn is here
from deepfrid Studios dot com and Trapper. Now you are
here with Siva.
Speaker 8 (19:03):
Uh yes, sir Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (19:04):
I hadn't been here two minutes and he has challenged
me to a turtle coo cook off.
Speaker 8 (19:10):
And I go by the name of Siva las Vegas.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Yes, and I'm pretty sure this one last remote.
Speaker 11 (19:16):
Cooker and have Stephen Brel against last weekend at Bio
No no.
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Step a little bit closer there. Thank you? So Siva,
you cook turtle soup?
Speaker 11 (19:31):
Fus time give it?
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Wait? Now why do you now? Why are you wanting
to get into a contact.
Speaker 11 (19:36):
Because I want to compete and beat Snake Trapper.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
But if you've never cooked turtle soup, why would you
pick back?
Speaker 12 (19:41):
Have the confidence that I can beat him? The last
couple of times he got beat so bad.
Speaker 11 (19:45):
I can beat him.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
Well, you know you say that his uh potato.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
Salad mustard too much mustard.
Speaker 6 (19:54):
Had had had. I had a lot of bad issues there.
So now, snake trouble, You're gonna fall for this. You're
gonna compete against somebody that's never made turtle soup.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Uncle Henry, believe it or not.
Speaker 10 (20:07):
I have never made it either, so it will be
my first time of making it.
Speaker 8 (20:12):
But now I have eate it many times. It's been
a long time since I had it.
Speaker 10 (20:16):
Now, my grandmother made the best in the world, and
if I can conjure up her recipe, I believe he'll
be in trouble.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Now, what do you so, how have you prepared? Have
you ever prepared turtle yourself?
Speaker 10 (20:29):
I have not prepared turtle myself, but I have tried
it in many different ways, but grandmother's is the best.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
This sounds like a disaster.
Speaker 11 (20:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna I'm going to practice before this for sure.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
Okay, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna buy
your what do you buy turtle meat online? Yeah?
Speaker 12 (20:47):
I think sneaked represented he phoned some on Amazon.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
Yes, or you can get it on Amazon.
Speaker 10 (20:52):
It's about one hundred and seventy dollars for five pounds.
Oh my lord, so we may just have to stick
with getting a pound of it?
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Might be and my why not just have a hot
dog grill off or something.
Speaker 12 (21:04):
No, this is fascinating, the turtle soup, especially with Steven's story.
Speaker 11 (21:08):
I thought that we need to do something like this.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
All right, Well, it is this something that you're gonna do.
You're gonna cook this turtle soup for the first time.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I'm don't make it hap it.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
It may not be soup, but it'll be turtle in
some shape form or fashion.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
All right, Well, what is it?
Speaker 12 (21:22):
So?
Speaker 6 (21:22):
Is soup the best way to have turtle? Or if
you had it in a better way.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Soup's probably the best way, Uncle Henry, like I said
when grandmother fixed it, depending on the species of turtle.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Uh, you know, you wouldn't know if it was lamb
you was having, and you wouldn't know if it was
beef or port.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
I mean, get all types of different varieties when you
when you eat turtle meat.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
So I love it, all right, And you've never had it.
You just want to you just want to have fun.
Speaker 12 (21:49):
No, No, I had it before any any restaurant I go.
If I see turtle soup, I have it.
Speaker 11 (21:54):
So I know why. It's just it's just it's just
it's just.
Speaker 12 (21:57):
Something new that I've never had come in India, so
I wanted it to try it. So when they put
up turtle soup on the menu, I'm having it.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
How long have you been here in the US from India?
Speaker 12 (22:09):
So I came in here in nineteen ninety one to
go to Southern Miss.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Okay, so you went to Southern Miss out of India.
Speaker 11 (22:16):
Yes, come straight to Southern Miss from India.
Speaker 6 (22:18):
Now why did you Why did you stay in the
south of the United States?
Speaker 12 (22:25):
Because the weather is kind of similar to the weather
that we have in the southern part of India.
Speaker 11 (22:29):
So that's why we chose.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
When you arrived in our nation. What type of food
did you gravitate toward.
Speaker 12 (22:36):
So to believe it or not, the first weekend I
had raw oysters. I'd never had raw oysters, but I
had the first first set the first weekend I was here.
Speaker 11 (22:47):
Then I had crawfish.
Speaker 12 (22:49):
So I'm I'm in the South and I'm used to
having the Southern food.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Okay, So this is had raw oysters and crawfish. Why
not have turtles.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
That's exactly right, Uncle Hendre.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
I love that the way that you think about that. Now,
you snake trapper. You you don't like the foods he
talked about.
Speaker 8 (23:07):
Uncle Henry, I will not eat an oyster.
Speaker 6 (23:10):
What now, come on, I'm gonna eat snakes. You eat snakes.
Speaker 10 (23:16):
That's because they're snakes and not horsters. I'm telling you, man, oysters.
Speaker 8 (23:19):
I just can't do it.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
You've gotten this. You're playing with me. This is an act.
Speaker 8 (23:25):
No, sir, I will not put an oyster in my mouth.
Speaker 10 (23:28):
I do not like them. I have tried them in
several different ways. I've tried them to smoked, fried, and
I've tried them raw.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
What about stewed?
Speaker 8 (23:38):
Don't believe I've ever tried them?
Speaker 6 (23:39):
And what about in gumbo or something like that?
Speaker 8 (23:42):
Know sure they will run a good pot of gumbo.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
This is really I can't believe that. You who you've
been bitten by pausonous snakes and you eat snakes. You
talked about the way to eat raccoon and the way
to eat possem and stuff, but you won't eat ois.
Speaker 10 (24:00):
I will not eat an oyster. I will eat a
chicken before eat an oyster.
Speaker 6 (24:06):
All right. Well, hey, I'm gonna be here for a
little while longer. Will you talk with me again after
the top of the hour. I want to ask some
snake questions. Yes, sir, sure we will, all right, so
Snake Trapper will be here with us after the top
of the hours. We continue here at Greer's Saint Louis
Market and Downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street. And uh, Civa,
(24:26):
you don't have any turtles here. What are you having
for dinner tonight?
Speaker 12 (24:30):
I'm going to golf sours and I don't know, probably
go to Florabama.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
All right, now, see sounds like you know what you're doing.
All right, We're gonna take a time out, have news
from Fox at the top of the hour, and then
more Uncle Henry Show Live on location here at Greer's
Saint Louis Market in Downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street.
Johnny Gwinn is here. After the break. I'm going to
(24:56):
ask him about that Cheech and Shong stuff he's drinking.
This is the Uncle Henry Show, Live on location, broadcasting
live from Greer's Saint Louis Market in Downtown Mobile on
Saint Louis Street. Uncle Henry here with Johnny Gwinn of
Deeprive Studios dot com. A lot of Uncle Henry's show.
(25:16):
Uh fans, I guess would be the word, or friends
is a better word.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
Friends and.
Speaker 6 (25:23):
I have been wonderful here. I just enjoyed seeing everybody
that we got c LD earlier. Ron Reems was here earlier,
and we still have a bunch of folks here. We're
gonna be talking to Snake Trapper here in a little
while about snakes, of course. Now, Johnny Gwinn of Deeprive
Studios dot Com has been given some things out. I
just saw you handing out huggers, leprocane huggers and buttons.
(25:43):
What is left? We're here for one more half hour.
What's left?
Speaker 5 (25:47):
I have eight fred Richardson tighten up fridge magnets. That's
all that's left of the Deep Fried Threads Empire. That's
all that's left of the inventory.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
Okay, so you the listener, stomp in but between now
and about six twenty five and you can pick up
one of these tighten up fred Richardson refrigerator bagnets while
supplies last here at Greer of Saint Louis Market. Now,
I wanted to ask you something real quick, the thing
you've been drinking? Yes, did you get it here? I
(26:17):
did buy it here, So tell us what you have
been drinking.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
So this is eighth Wonder Cannabis sparkling lime water. It's
zero calorie, zero alcohol, but has a legal amount of
CBD and THHC for the state of Alabama, where it
is an alternative to drinking a beer.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
So it is this. It is completely legal with CBD
in it. Now do you notice any relief of joint
pain or anything like that when you're drinking that?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Though?
Speaker 6 (26:48):
It's more of a euphoric feeling, is what it is.
Do you feel you for it? Not so much with
two of these.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
It's been two over quite a while, by the way,
but there's quite refreshing.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
And they come in a can.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
And I don't think Greers. I think Greers has the
permission and legality.
Speaker 6 (27:05):
Yes, of course, yes they do. All right, Well, these
are that's a whole line of things that I've never
really I haven't done a deep dive on any of
that stuff.
Speaker 7 (27:14):
I'm shocked the state of Alabama allows it.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
We are usually the fifty second state to do anything
and make things legal.
Speaker 7 (27:21):
So even though that's a joke. I know there's only
fifty states out there.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
Yes, but it's the Cheech and Chong one I had
before this one last hour.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
Yes, was much tastiers, so because I will see.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Cheech and Chong now. Was the Cheech and Shong thing
also from here? Correct? It was.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
There's many many brands here, just just like you know there's.
Speaker 6 (27:43):
Budwise and Way. Let's back up, Yes, Cheach and shongah
now have was it a sparkling water beverage from Cheechen Chong.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
It was a fruit flavored sparkling water with five milligrams
of THHC CBD in it.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
So legal in Alabama.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Cheach and Chong water, Cheach and Chong sparkling CBD water, Yes, yeah,
And I like the there's other ones I likes a
lot too, But there's a one called Easy Hemp Company.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
That I like.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
It's pretty good too, but it's great because zero calories,
zero sugar, zero alcohol.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
Let's think back. Let's say it's nineteen eighty two. Would
we believe that by twenty twenty five, Cheach and Chong
would both still be alive? Correct, and still be able
businessman selling completely legal Cheach and Chong water product.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
Now Tommy Chong has been selling I think most things
you would find in a head shop that would be
a Schlang like dope bong height. Yeah, but he was
the one that went to jail, too good to jail.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
Oh it was for selling. I can't remember why it did.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
But yes, they are still in character. They still do
get to play the cheat and Chong character and they
have been selling weed culture for almost as long as
I've been born.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
I mean, they finally you know, I think back to
the years when when they were putting out those movies
and their careers really took a nose dive when Reagan
was elected. Career it was just saying no, it really did.
Their career really hit a brick wall in the eighties
because of all that. And now here we are five
(29:34):
and they have re emerged and they're making money now.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I would say Tommy Chong has always been on brand
for the weed smoking yes, while Cheach Maron has done
a much better job of branching out into TV family
TV shows and movies and stuff. But now you still
catch them do the original Cheech and Chong still now though,
So yes, but.
Speaker 7 (29:58):
It's actually trying to watch from those movies not Stoned,
and it was very difficult.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
They're horrible, they were.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
I was like, I'm.
Speaker 5 (30:07):
Surprised I caught this as funny because it really wasn't
very funny.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
No, it was.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
It was terrible what they I will say all of
it was not funny, but most it was pretty. But again,
it was a different time, and counterculture is counterculture, Unkle Henry,
And you've never been in the counterculture.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
I don't want to be.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
But for a while we kind of were in the
counterculture because the rights started being the counterculture in the
last couple of years, which is very strange to me.
It is that the left is now the man and
the right is now the outsider, very very strange.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Strange that the simulation is liitching.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Well, when you live long enough, you see stuff like
this happen.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
Correct, they say, every stuff forty years they know there's
one big tumble and.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
You just reset and do this.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Whatever was famous forty years ago is now famous again.
So you know, if you've got bad clothing keeping around
long enough, I'll come back and say, so there.
Speaker 6 (30:57):
You go now, And you use the word bad, it
doesn't have to be. It is just an older clouth
thing correct will always ben style.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
Right.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
You go from being in the goodwill to being hit yes,
to being you know, yes, quirky and wonderful.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Now tonight here we're here at Saint Louis Market on
Saint Louis Street. Loda Artwalk has started up in downtown Mobile.
It is a roll night, roll mobile or whatever they
call it, which is not a cheech and shrong thing.
The roll mobiles where they block off the streets around
Bimble Square.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
So you can go roller skates roller skating. Yes, that's
pretty cool.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
Now you were a skateboarder, I was a skateboard that
is not allowed. You have to have roller skates to
be able, and.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
It should be skateboarders that should stay away from roller
skaters and vice versa.
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Now it's also Loda Artwalk. This month is celebrating National
Craft Month with they're going to have some kind of
children's activities in Cathedral Square where your child can paint
something or something a craft. Now, when you were a kid,
you were an artsy kid, did you do a bunch
of crafts?
Speaker 7 (31:59):
It was not an artsy kid.
Speaker 5 (32:01):
You become a graphic designer skateboard decks and album covers
and didn't realize people.
Speaker 7 (32:06):
Made money doing that stuff. But I was not a drawer.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I was a musician, but not not so much building things.
I'm still not good with making things with my hands.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
Now I could do it.
Speaker 7 (32:17):
I can photoshop, but I cannot actually make something.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
Did you ever do a craft in school?
Speaker 5 (32:22):
Part of I'm sure you know they you had art
back in the day, they used to have this thing
called art class, which I don't think they have those
things anymore in school because most of like stem stuff
now right, I don't know, I have no pay for
they can't pay for art teachers anymore, or something.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
I don't know. I've not been. I'm sure that. I'm
sure there's something going on somewhere. I'm sure I.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
Did legos and I remember linking logs, but that's not
really crafty. That's more like, well, yeah, legos are legs,
very very much are. But I guess I was thinking
of people that glue the take some sticks and some.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Sniff glue coball and I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 7 (32:59):
I used to glue.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
I'll find that as well, well, you know, taking the
glue in the uh that was a cotton ball. Oh, yeah,
a week ago on glue. That's going to be another show.
You will have to get Johnny back in next week
and maybe setting both with some type of counselor and
we can do a live on air intervention about the glue.
But so you were not a crazy You didn't do crafts?
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Is I really didn't? I found my Yeah, in my
late early twenties. I found I could do certain things
that would make something like arts and carb designs.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Okay, hey we are, We're going to take a time
out traffic weather works from our sponsors, and then back
for one more segment at Greer's Saint Louis Market in
downtown Mobile on Saint Louis Street. The Uncle Henry Show
continuing on w nt M. Uncle Henry Show here at
Greer's Saint Louis Market with Johnny Gynn of Deep Fried
(33:50):
Studios and Johnny. You've given out almost all of your
refrigerator magnets.
Speaker 8 (33:54):
I'm real close.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
I think I'll keep one or two just for the records,
because I usually don't keep anything to actually make.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
Yes, so I will keep a couple of myself.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
Very very good. All right, Well, there's still time listener
if you want to grab one of these maggots. Now,
snake trapper, come here for a second. Snake trapper doing real,
real good. So is it snake season? Yem? Are we there?
I mean the temperatures are upper seventies this weekend.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
Here in Mobile. We are officially there, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (34:28):
The weather did not drop below the temperter did not
drop below sixty five and a twenty four hour period,
so all of the snakes that were in hibernation should
be coming out to day.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
Today is snake dates.
Speaker 8 (34:42):
Today is snake Day.
Speaker 10 (34:43):
Okay, that's a kind of a thermometer or a gauge,
just to you know, try to use that twenty four
hour period of where the tempter doesn't drop below sixty five.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
Now, we had a bunch.
Speaker 6 (34:56):
Of early.
Speaker 10 (34:59):
Early outers, if you would. Uh, My buddy at his
hunting camp a couple of weeks ago spotted a pretty
good sized copperhead. So uh, some come out earlier than others.
Speaker 6 (35:10):
All right, So how it should should? What is the
demeanor of the newly awakened snake, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
They are hungry because most of them have been in
hibernation for at least a month, and a snake likes
to feed at least once a month. So if you
see one sitting on side of a creek or something,
he's looking to catch a fizz a miuse a bird.
Anything that comes to there he'll try to eat, including
(35:39):
another snake.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Well, now is it a problem for human beings?
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (35:44):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 10 (35:45):
They will bite you if you mess with them, so
I wouldn't and they will be ornery because of the
fact that they are hungry.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
That's best to just leave them alone.
Speaker 10 (35:55):
Ornery, yes, or they are very honory when they first
wake up. It's like, uh, you know, they're looking for
a reason to eat something, and if it's too big,
they'll alloable to get an attitude and just buite it.
Speaker 6 (36:07):
Now, what time of year do you typically eat your
first snake? Generally about this time.
Speaker 10 (36:14):
If I mean, if I get a call and there's
a rattle snake or something that you know that somebody
wants removed, and it's a big enough one to eat,
this would be a good time of the day. I
expect I'll start hearing people finding them, you know, in
theres where they shouldn't be.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Okay, all right, So and then will you let me
and the listeners know when you finally have your first
snake of the year.
Speaker 10 (36:36):
Yes, sir, I sure will, now I didn't. It's been
several years since I've had one.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
You know, what do you mean, it's been several years
since you've eaten snake.
Speaker 8 (36:44):
Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (36:45):
If you eat a rattle snake, you need at least
a four and a half foot one. Anything under that's
kind of too small to fool with cotton mouth you know,
you want to probably at least a three and a
half foot you know, a lot bigger around than they
are along the cotton mouths are.
Speaker 8 (37:03):
But the rattle stakes.
Speaker 10 (37:05):
Now, my buddy killed one last year that I told him, Man,
I wish you would have brought to me a timber raller. Now,
timber ratler has some of the prettiest white meat you'll
ever find in the snake.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
Now, have you ever gone out to deliberately hunt snake?
Speaker 8 (37:22):
I did when I was a young man, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (37:24):
I used to actually trap when I was about eighteen
to twenty years old, or even before that, when I
was about fourteen, I was actually catching watermarksins for people
that used them to extract their venom for whatever reason.
Speaker 6 (37:40):
Yeah, we don't know.
Speaker 8 (37:41):
But and then they may have eaten some of them.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
All right, well, Snake Traveler Wall, you're gonna come in
sometime soon and do a more in depth snake show
to begin snake season.
Speaker 8 (37:51):
I will, Uncle Henry.
Speaker 10 (37:52):
Do you remember Aid Partridge that I believe we had
him at the container y'all?
Speaker 6 (37:57):
Yeah, and talk a little bit more of that there.
Speaker 8 (37:59):
I had him at the container yard.
Speaker 6 (38:01):
Yes, I remember, Yes, Abe Partridge, the musician singer songwriter
Abe Partridge.
Speaker 10 (38:07):
Uncle Henry, he knows a lot of folks in North
Alabama that does them stake churches.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
So he told me that.
Speaker 10 (38:15):
If I ever got one that was extremely large, to
let him know that he would have a buyer for
that snake. So that would be a reason to actually
capture Moccasonzilla because according to him, I.
Speaker 6 (38:28):
Went a minute, you had a musician, Abe Partridge told
you that he was looking for large snakes that if
you ever had one, he would find a buyer for you.
Speaker 10 (38:40):
Yes, sir, I have his number today to where he
said if I get a certain size of certain species
of snakes, that he has a buyer for them.
Speaker 6 (38:49):
So I just that just amazes me that there's a
network of people out there looking for these animals.
Speaker 10 (38:56):
Well, these are part of the North Alabama Snake Worship
in group.
Speaker 8 (39:00):
I mean he's showing me a bunch of pictures that.
Speaker 6 (39:03):
They're not gonna eat it. They want to worship it.
Speaker 8 (39:05):
Uh no, sir, that's what they do.
Speaker 10 (39:07):
They I've never been to the church, but I have
seen them on TV and the way they act. They
actually get in there and just handle the snakes.
Speaker 6 (39:16):
Okay, all right, we'll see now this is I did
not expect this from it. We're getting into a new
depths with snake trapper here almost snake travel Well, well,
let's do a show soon sometime in the next couple
of uh uh, next week or the week after about
the emergence of the snake.
Speaker 8 (39:30):
Uncle Henry I would enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
Well, I would too, and that's why I invited maybe
we get away to give us a call and come
in talk about it too, you know, that would be interesting.
I talked to him a little bit. I've talked to
him a little bit, but not about that particular aspect
of his life, So that would be that would be
quite interesting to know.
Speaker 10 (39:52):
I'm not saying that Ave actually does it or has affiliated.
He just knows people that that do bound for that reason.
Speaker 6 (39:59):
All right, well, Sna, thank trapper, we are out of time.
Great talking to you.
Speaker 10 (40:02):
