I enjoy having somewhere to go, you know what I mean.
It's nice to have somewhere to go, especially a sheltered

you can two five one four seven nine two seven
two three. The telephone number. That's two five one four
seven nine two seven two three. Email address Uncle Henry

(02:56):
at iHeartMedia dot com. I've already got messages from people
of things they want to talk about, voicemail messages. I've
got email about yesterday's show. But I've got I've got
people hanging on. I've already got a caller, so let
me go right to the phones. I do like to
talk to living callers when at all possible. Again, two

(03:16):
five one two three the telephone number.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
Hello caller, Good evening, Uncle Henry, Bert Bert, you are
live on the radio.

Speaker 9 (03:28):
I want to give my final endorsement in the mayor's race.

Speaker 5 (03:31):
Oh okay, we'll go right ahead now.

Speaker 9 (03:35):
I want to say up front that I like all
four of the candidates. I don't have a problem with
any of them. I think each one of them would
have a lot to offer for this city and will
be a fine mayor of Mobile.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (03:49):
I mentioned in a previous call that Paul Prime had
greatly impressed me by taking a solo stamp in favor
of retaining permitless concealed carry. Yes, he said before. I'm
a politician, I'm a citizen, and I support.

Speaker 7 (04:08):
The Second Amendment.

Speaker 9 (04:09):
Okay, But ultimately that is not a decision that's made
by city mayors. That is a decision made by state legislators.

Speaker 5 (04:16):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (04:18):
So my final endorsement goes to Connie Hoodson.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
All Right.

Speaker 9 (04:23):
I think with her experience and everything, she would make
a better mayor than all the others. That's just my
own humble opinion.

Speaker 5 (04:30):
And that's and that's that everybody has one. And I'm
glad you've expressed it here on the program. And I
would like to establish you are not you are not
going to be voting correct in the municipal election because
you are not in the city limits.

Speaker 9 (04:45):

two five, one four seven nine two seven two three
the telephone number now Bert mentioned football game coming up.
The college football season will be beginning, I guess next weekend,
or maybe some games are already going to be played
in the coming week. Here is a message phoned into
the Uncle Henry Show on the topic, So.

Speaker 7 (07:01):
Tied, Uncle, Well, Uncle, it is the twenty second of August.
And what that means is high school football tonight all
over the dead gun place.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
Love it.

Speaker 7 (07:11):
Football is back, real football, I think dead blame. Preseason
games is NFL that looks more like UFL games. But
that's okay. That's better than anything else, any other kind
of sport. I take it each pre season NFL. I'll
take over baseball or basketball, or hockey or golf or fishing,

(07:34):
any of those any day of the week. So it's
finally here. Alabama course plays in one week from tomorrow,
roll till so he couldn't get here quick enough, And
it finally has arrived, and we're glad of it. Sitting
out here on the porches breathing this nice, clean, fresh air.

old Chrystal west Locksley. I'll take it easy and you
have a good one. As they say in Sara Land. Yes,
glad for the return of the diversion, the entertainment diversion
of football. Now we got all of that and much

(08:45):
much more to get into on The Uncle Henry Show.
As this show moves forward in the time stream, first
a break for traffic, weather and words from the sponsors,
and then back with the additional Uncle Henry Show on
this Friday, tight Saber traffic from the it says the

(09:21):
Uncle Henry Show Here on News Radio seven ten WNTIM.
It is five twenty news headlines coming up in ten
minutes here on News Radio seven ten WNTM. If you'd
like to call the show if there's something you want
to talk about two five to one four seven nine
two seven two three. That's two five one four seven
nine two seven two three. Email address Uncle Henry at

(09:42):
iHeartMedia dot com. That's uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. Now,
there's a lot of big news stories on the national
and international level that have broken today, that have become
news today. One of the things, I mean, I could
talk talk about all of them, but I'm watching people

(10:07):
react now to how the Department of Justice has released
the interview or interviews that Julane Maxwell, the lady that
allegedly was the assistant partner in crime with Jeffrey Epstein.
They've released the audio of all of her interviews with

(10:30):
the Department of Justice that she just did, and also
transcripts of the interviews. They've released all of this for
the American people to go through, all of the audio
and the transcript of these interviews. And people are going
through and they're saying, oh, look, she says this, Oh

(10:50):
and she said that, and she said this person didn't
do nothing bad, and this other person, she says, this
other person really didn't do anything bad either. Blah blah blah,
blah blah. My question is why why would we believe
anything she's sing now? She may be telling the truth.

(11:11):
I don't know, have no way, and there's no way
for you to know she's telling the truth either. We
have no way of knowing if she's telling the truth.
But why would we believe anything she is saying. She's
in jail for allegedly helping Epstein traffic females for his

(11:33):
use or underage females, either for his use or the
alleged mysterious clients. So how can we believe anything she
is saying now? If she were actually given the dirt.
Let's say that she did this interview with the Department

(11:55):
of Justice and she's given all kind of details. She's
naming name, name and names, have giving all these kind
of details. Do you think they would release this information?
If it were information that you could use in court

(12:17):
to prosecute somebody, would you first release it to the nation.
By the way, the same point could be made about
all these declassified documents that are now being leaked to
John Solomon, the reporter, so that he can go onto
Hannity and talk about these things. You would if you
were ever planning on prosecuting somebody, would you first leak

(12:40):
documents to a reporter about it?

Speaker 7 (12:46):
So?

Speaker 5 (12:46):
I don't know what this is. I don't know why,
I don't know what the point of this. Releasing it
on a Friday to boot hundreds of pages. I don't
know how many pages this is it? Two hundred three
hundred pages of transcripts and these audio interviews? What possibly
could be useful in there? How could you believe it?

(13:08):
Number one? And then if it's usable by the Department
of Justice, why wouldn't they keep it and present it
to Grand jurys and douth Why would you release it
just asking? Just asking? Doesn't make any sense to me
all of that. Two five one four seven nine two
seven two three The telephone number here on the Elklanberg show. Uh.

(13:31):
By the way, in the interviews, she sang really nice
things about President Trump, and also I think she said
some nice nice things about Bill Clinton or claim that
she never saw him get a massage or something like that. Anyway,

(13:52):
why should we believe any of it? Is what I'm wondering.
Two five one four seven nine two seven two three
The telephone number here, Hello caller.

Speaker 8 (14:02):
Hey, uncle Henry like ketcher roll tad roll.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Tad roll, Like Catcher, what's going on with you?

Speaker 7 (14:08):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (14:08):
I wanted to add a war buzzard in there too,
how about that one?

Speaker 5 (14:12):
Okay?

Speaker 8 (14:12):
All right, hey, I you know, being one that don't
live in the city limits, I also have an opinion
on the city elections.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
Oh wonderful. All right, well, then we need to hear
the non citizen's view of the mobile mayor's race.

Speaker 8 (14:26):
My personal opinion is that Paul Prime should be the
one to go in there, simply because he's not a politician.
I've always said that, you know, politicians like diapers, they
ought to be changed ofphining for the same reason. That's
my that's my vote, Paul Brian, if I could vote,
that's who I put my vote on.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
All right, Well, like Catcher, anything else you want to
share that.

Speaker 8 (14:49):
I ought to do it for today, other than telling
you to have a good afternoon and God bless you
and your family, well same.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
To you, Thank you very much, Like Ketcher for your
phone call two fine one four seven nine two seven
two three the telephone number here on the Uncle Henry Show.
Also in the news today, the FBI rating the home
and office of John Bolton, one of the most distinct

(15:18):
looking cabinet members in history. Here's quite a distinct looking guy.
He's got quite a look that he's curated for himself
with his mustache, John Bolton. I've seen more mustache puns
today on social media than I've ever seen because of
the John Bolton having his his home and office rated

(15:40):
by the FBI. Some people delighted by other people upset
by it. I know that John Bolton is not listening
to the Uncle Henry Show, but I would I would
advise him that if he does. I don't I don't
know that he'll ever get arrested, but I hope that
he would remember to smile. If he does get arrested,

(16:04):
he should smile in his mugshot, because we do have
the principle of innocent until proven guilty, and so he
should smile. In fact, what wouldn't it be a great
move on his part if he did get told that
he was going to be arrested. Wouldn't it be a
great move for him to shave that mustache? And that

(16:25):
would that it would be such a shock to the system,
people wouldn't realize it was him. He could have a
much He could have a mugshot that people just would
not connect to him because of his extremely distinct look
with his mustache. And I've never thought of that. I've

(16:45):
never thought of him wearing the mustache and being able
at some point in his in his future to remove
it and then go. Then that would be like a disguise,
just like when a Superman puts on all he All
Superman does is put on a pair of glasses, and
suddenly people can't figure out that Superman, even though he's

(17:07):
obviously got a good physique, they just can't figure it
out for some reason. The eyeglasses confuses people when Superman
puts them on. Same thing with John Bolton in reverse.
He could take his mustache off and be unidentifiable. He
could disappear. In fact, I wonder if it's real. Now
at this point, he's bragged on television about plotting coups

(17:30):
of other countries. He's bragged on TV about planning to
overthrow other governments. Maybe the mustache is a complex disguise.
Maybe he takes it off whenever he's uh wherever he's
working on overthrowing a government. It says the Uncle Henry Show,

(18:22):
These Radio seven to ten WNTIM AT's five thirty five
Tomorrow Saturday. I'm going to be in Orange Beach down

of Little Bigtown, he's won numerous Grammy Awards and all
kind of awards for their music. He was born and
raised in Alabama and he is a fan of the

(19:52):
Alabama Crimson Tied Roll Tide row. So I'll be talking

one four seven nine two seven two three. That's two
five to one four seven nine two seven two three.
Email address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. All right,

(20:14):
let me see I've got some voicemail messages that have
stacked up because yesterday I had uh, Johnny Gwyn Scott
Tendall in here. By the way, if you missed that show.

it is available as a podcast right now. You can

in I believe Wednesday afternoon during the show.

Speaker 4 (20:51):
Hey, unh It'spat and Nelly. I hope you haven't a
great afternoon. Yes, sorry, I'm leaving you this voice message
in the middle your show. But anyways, and I live
in Midtown. Since i've been here, I think I've seen
every animal species native to the state of Alabama.

Speaker 5 (21:12):
I'm pausing just to say you live in Midtown. Congratulations.

Speaker 4 (21:18):
I've seen turtles, I've seen raccoons, I've seen copious opossums,
and night before last I called on my security camera
a code well. I sent a video to the turtle
trapper to get him to identify what was on my
security camera, and he said it possibly could be a

(21:41):
gray fox. I don't think it's as exotic as that,
but anyway, I don't want a gray fox chasing my
cats around. But I pold most of my friends they
said it was a cad Anyways, un I really think
that these male or candidates should be addressed in simple
issues that we saw from in this city, like this

(22:02):
shouldn't be KOs running wild in.

Speaker 8 (22:05):
The bill of city?

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Am I wrong for thinking that? Uh? Anyways, I hope
you have a great afternoon and roll tide, roll tied roll.

Speaker 5 (22:15):
Thank you very much. Pat Nelly again, congratulations on living
at Midtown. Mobile with all of the flora and fauna
that is so gorgeous and wonderful to live a monks.
Now your comments about the coyotes running a muck in Mobile.
This has been an issue for several years. Of watching
all of the Mobile City council meetings the punishment of

(22:36):
watching council meetings on YouTube. I have seen numerous citizens
go and talk to the Mobile City Council about their
issues with the coyotes, and there's just they're just telling
you don't leave food out. I don't know this. I
guess this should have been brought up before. Now it's

(22:59):
kind of late. The election is Tuesday, and so far
I don't think this has been asked at any forums
or anything like this. But maybe you can reach out
to candidates on social media, Patnella and ask them about
their thoughts on the coyotes roaming in various There have
been all over Mobile in various Mobile neighborhoods. Two five

(23:22):
one four seven nine two seven two three The telephone
number here on the unc Lendry Show. Let me go
to another voicemail, this one from longtime Uncle Henry show
caller buford.

Speaker 8 (23:35):
Haner.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
There is a vodacious pot hoole getting off I sixty
five westbound on the spring Hill Avenue. Henry, I do
believe I've hit that thing twise and knocked the feeling
loose each time I reported it to the City of Mobile.
My vehicle or my work vehicle is damaged. Byte whoa

(23:58):
upon the City of Mobile, Henry. They're not gonna like
what the lawyers have to say, because Henry, I've spend
thousands of dollars to make their life miserable over our
diagum potholes. Anyway, just a pothole report, You have a good.

Speaker 5 (24:17):
Day different Thank you for your pothole report. I do
enjoy hearing that I'm not the only one disappointed and
the lack of attention the pot potholes get. Now, I
know the potholes get some attention. It's been discussed at
the council meeting, and they're putting in one point seven
million dollars in the next budget to address streets and potholes.

(24:40):
As I mentioned earlier this week, could have spent way
more money than that, way more on the potholes. Two
five one four seven nine two seven two three. The
telephone number here, that's two five one four seven nine
two seven two three email address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia
dot com. Yesterday I had Johnny Gwenn and Scott Tindall

(25:01):
on the Uncle in Angry Show talking about artificial intelligence,
and they they had created Johnny Gynn had created an
artificial intelligence version of me. I'm not going to play
the whole thing for you again. The reason I'm sharing
this with you again is I got an email about it.

(25:23):
This was their artificial intelligence creating something that was supposed
to sound like me. Listeners, this is Uncle Henry. I've
got a confession that's been burning a hole in my pocket.
Ronald Reagan wildly overrated in history, folks, mark my words.

(25:45):
President Obama had a way bigger, brighter impact on America's
rep and presidential legacy that smooth oper anybody that was
ridiculous that they would even say, you know, that's one thing.
You know, a we already need laws to protect us
from a uh doing stuff like this, creating a version
of me that's not me in the same things. I'd

(26:07):
never say that ought to be illegal. Anyway, I did
get an email on that creation. Let me go to
the Uncle Henry Show. Old fashioned electronic mail email inbox,
subject line on the email as Hello email reads Uncle Henry.
That did not sound like you. It sounded like a

(26:30):
parody that your younger self would do. But I like
that Johnny included the greatness of President Obama, true regardless
of whether it comes from you or a Seriously, with
regard to places such as fast food restaurants not having
many workers in the future, what if the public refused

(26:51):
to frequent such restaurants, opting for the human touch instead,
I refuse to use self checkouts for example. I hope
there's a movement to resist some aspects of AI. I
get what they are saying and have read similar articles.
I wish Johnny and his partner success peace and that

(27:14):
email from as and that would be the liberal professor,
the liberal professor that has listened to the Uncle Henry Show.
I guess since there have been Uncle Henry shows, thank
you for your email. Email address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia

(27:34):
dot com. That's Uncle Henri adiheartmedia dot com. And I
think maybe some people may resist those restaurants, maybe for
a year or two, and then younger people are going
to grow to accept it because it'll be the new normal.

(28:08):
It says the Uncle Henry Show. Here on news Radio
seven ten wnt M. We have news headlines coming up
in ten minutes. Telephone number 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 Henry
at iHeartMedia dot com. That's Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com.

(28:33):
Let's see quickly going to the voicemail one more time
here in this hour.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
Yes, is this the party to which I am speaking
that the uh one Uncle Henry of the Uncle Henry
laugh In Show. Yes, if it is, you need to
fire all of your comedians. You need to hire some
good ones like Artie Johnson, Lily Tomlin, Ruth Buzzy, Goldie Han.

(29:08):
They were on Dan Rowin and Dick Martin's laugh In
and they were funny and they were also very interesting.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
Bye bye, sir, Thank you, by the way, thank you
for your voicemail. I appreciate that voicemail. Voicemail number two
five one two one six, nineteen seventy six. That's two
five one two one six nineteen seventy six. Uh. Bringing
up those stars of laugh In now. I think I
mentioned this earlier this year. Ruth Buzzy, I think she
is still with us because I have been following her

(29:45):
on Twitter. She did she pass away? Yes, she passed
away in May. Dad gumming condolences to the fans and
family of Ruth Buzzy. Ruth Buzzy just passed away May
first of this year. And before then she was she was,
she was tweeting out all the time. She was. Ruth Buzzy,

(30:06):
a wonderful, wonderful comedian. Now you mentioned Artie Johnson, Lily Timelind,
Ruth Buzzy, goldiehorn On Rowan and Martin's laugh In. I
had a chance to meet Artie Johnson years ago in
Baldwin County when he came to to the Golf Coast

(30:26):
to be part of the Ken Stabler Celebrity Golf Tournament.
And so I met Artie Johnson on the golf course.
He was, he was nice to me, he was, he was,
he was nice. Artie Johnson was very nice to me.

(30:47):
That was the same year that I met Spanky from
the Little Rascals. Yeah, they had Yes, the same year
I met Artie Johnson and Spanky I think I met
him on the same day and one of the of course,
it was wonderful to talk to Artie Johnson. Spanky though,

(31:10):
it was a shock because he was standing around with
the other celebrities. I was there in the background with
a TV camera because I was still doing the Old
Uncle Henry Show on Bay TV back in those days.
And I was shocked when I met Spanky because he

(31:31):
started telling a joke to all the celebrities and it
was filthy. He was filthy, and I just couldn't. I
don't know why, but I just did not expect cuss
words to just come tumbling out a Spanky. You know,
Spanky was an older, adult male at that point, but I,

(31:55):
of course always thought of him as Spanky the little kid.
He was a little kid on The Little Rascals and
the r Gang Shorts, so I always thought of him
as a little kid. So it was quite It was
a terrible shock to the system to hear Spanky cussing
using some of the worst cuss words you could ever imagine. It. Really,

(32:16):
I felt like, even though I was an adult male,
what little bit of my innocence was eroded upon meeting Spanky.
In fact, if you're a famous person out there accidentally
listening to this, please when you're meeting your fans out there,

(32:39):
please try to hold back on all of the cusswords.
I know it's part of modern culture now that everybody
has to drop the F bomb all the time and
people are saying horrible things. But if you could just
not do that in front of your fans, whoever you are,
if you could just just let us live the illusion
that maybe you don't cuss all the time, we would

(33:01):
appreciate it, or at least I know I would. Famous people. Right,
Let's see almost out a time in this half hour
of show. There is more to come of the Uncle
Henry Show after the six o'clock news coming up in
the next half hour of Uncle Henry Show. I don't

(33:25):
know if I have more voicemail to play or none.
I know I've got other news items to go over,
and I'm going to talk to Jimmy Westbrook. Jimmy Westbrook
is the Grammy Award winning member of Little Big Town.
Little Big Town performing at the Wharf at Orange Beach

(34:40):
Henry Show. Here on News Radio seventy ten WNTM, news
headlines are coming up in ten minutes. Before we get
to the news headlines, I got a news item or
two that I missed. You might have missed it too,
so let's possibly learn together. The first story I have

(35:01):
here is about some new dangerous, allegedly dangerous drug that
is unregulated, and Alabama officials are warning those of us
that are Alabamians about this drug. So let's listen together.
I've got this story from WSFA Television up in Montgomery,

(35:22):
a stepsister station to Fox ten. Let's learn about this
alleged dangerous drug.

Speaker 4 (35:30):
Aesthetic drug is rising in popularity and along with it
more deaths from overdoses.

Speaker 10 (35:35):
Yeah, it's called bromaslum and tonight, Alabama Bromasalam, as Attorney General,
is joining a coalition of others who wants to crack
down on the substance WSFA twelve news anchor Sally Pitt
spoke with Attorney General Steve Marshall.

Speaker 6 (35:52):
It has been called a hidden killer and is known
as designer.

Speaker 5 (35:55):
Xanax Designer Xanax.

Speaker 6 (35:58):
Attorney General Steve Marshall says it poses a growing threat
to public health and safety.

Speaker 11 (36:03):
Bad guys are using it to do bad things.

Speaker 6 (36:05):
Marshal is part of a coalition of twenty one attorneys
general against bro mase lam.

Speaker 5 (36:10):
I date bro may Zoe lamb b R like bro. Like.
If you were to meet me and we would become
good enough friends, you might call me BRO. I wouldn't
like it, but you might call me that. So it's
bro Broma z o l am bro maso lamb.

Speaker 6 (36:35):
Injurious an unregulated drug that means law enforcement and other
regulators have no ability to control it. The drug is
responsible for hundreds of deaths across the country. The pills
are usually passed off as prescription medication used to treat
anxiety and insomnia.

Speaker 11 (36:52):
People sort of see it marketed as designers annex maybe
think that there's some purpose that can use it in
their lives. We know it's addictive, if we know it
can be deadly and it's one that no one can trust.
What they're getting is in fact something that's safe to
be able to.

Speaker 9 (37:07):
Ingest in a ladder.

Speaker 6 (37:08):
To the DA, the attorneys general are asking it to
take emergency action that would help law enforcement remove the
drug from circulation and give prosecutors the tools to hold
traffickers accountable.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
In Kentucky, say, I'm curious about where does this circulate?
Is this another one of those convenience store drugs? It seems,
for some reason convenience stores around the country seem to
be a front line for new experimental substances that a
lot of people don't even know what they'll do to you.

Speaker 9 (37:42):
How does this?

Speaker 5 (37:42):
How do these is that? Where this is ending up?
I'm trying to figure out where are people getting this?

Speaker 6 (37:48):
Ki The Office of Drug Control Policy reported approximately forty
seven overdose desks related to the drug last year. Sally
fits WSFA twelve news are.

Speaker 10 (38:00):
The states signing onto that letter against the substance include Kentucky,
South Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia.

Speaker 5 (38:07):
All right, well, all right, well it'll be illegal soon.
I'm sure it will be. I know that the Alabama
legislature almost every year they end up outlawning, something that
has popped up in convenience stores, dangerous stuff that just
pops up at convenience stores. All right, let's see, I've
got time for one more quick one. Here is a

(38:28):
story from Fox News. The reporter is Lilian Wu. She's
reporting on a list of popular baby names. There's a
trend of baby names that can be used for boys
or girls. Names that you can use for a male
or a female. Let's listen together.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
New data from digital parenting resource Baby Center reveals some
of the top ones at the head of the list
of names which are chosen equally for boys and girls.
Blake Blake, Jojoe, Jules, Coy, Landry, Robin, Sidney, and the
Sanskrit name Shre among those which came close to being.

Speaker 5 (39:10):
Used Sanskrit names. All right, I don't know that I've
come across many Sanskrit names here on the local level.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
Equally Armani, Ashton, Callaway, Georgie, Huntly j spelled je, Rory,
and Shiloh. Baby name experts say other hot trends include
choosing last names as first names.

Speaker 5 (39:34):
By the way, I like that trend. I like the
last name is a first name. We have a lot
of that here on the Alabama golf coast especially. I've
noticed in the spring Hill type families a lot of
last names as first names, and I'm a big proponent
of it, very much. So in fact, I would I
would think that one last name that would make a

(39:56):
great name for a baby a last name is a
first name, would be Saban. You know it's true. You
know that Saban would be a good first name, and
you could use it for a girl or a boy.
So this is something that you should be thinking about
if you're fertile.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
For naming children after places such as cities or states.
Lillian Woo, Fox News.

Speaker 5 (40:20):
Okay, so, and some people are naming babies after places.
So let's see, has anyone named their baby Creola? That
would be a beautiful name for a child, Creola. What
about Mount Vernon would be a good name. In fact,

(40:42):
I would love to have a family filled with with Thomasville, Jackson,
Grove Hill, Mount Vernon, Creola. I would love to have
kids all named after all those wonderful towns. Right out
of time for this show and for this week of
Uncle Henry Show. Thank you for listening. As they say

(41:03):
in Sarland, have a good one, and, as they say
in Theodore, take it easy

Speaker 9 (41:12):
All right later
