Speaker 7 (07:19):

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Sir, well ready or not? Here it comes time, Dallas.
What was Classic Rock lone Star ninety two to five? Well,
look at the time, it's six thirty. In Time versus
Sports of all.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Sorts, brought you by Comerica Bank, Let's start out with
a sports question.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Football questions.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
What's the oldest team in the NFL and what player
gets paid the least?
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Ah, The oldest team in the NFL the Arizona Cardinals.
That shocks me. The oldest established team in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
They used to be the Chicago Cardinals. Then they were
the Saint Louis Cardinals. Now they're the Arizona.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
They were established in eighteen ninety eight, is an independent
team and join the NFL and its founding year of
nineteen twenty along with the Chicago Bears, but Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
As far as the lowest paid NFL players as of
this September, the lowest paid NFL players in terms of
cash earnings are Andre Basselia from the Arizona Cardinals, CJ.
Ravenel from the Baltimore Ravens, and Dayton Wade, also of Baltimore,
who are each set to earn a measly two hundred
and twenty two thousand, five hundred dollars this season they
(08:29):
even play. No, they're just probably on the practice squad,
but they get to check, right, Gravy.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Take that job.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Well.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Yeah, speaking of football, the most responsible for the Cowboys'
failure and that demoralizing week loss to the Saints were obvious.
For once, nobody even thought to blame the two hundred
and forty million dollar quarterback. At least not much. Believe
it or not, Dak Prescott finished with more tackles than
(08:57):
Jordan Phillips and half as many as Lynn Vald Joseph,
both veteran interior defensive Lions. Oh Is that it was,
of course unfortunate that Prescott's tackles were necessary to prevent
potential touchdown return on one of the two interceptions he
oh that hurts. Team owner Jerry Jones stood outside the
losing locker room, describing the twenty five point loss as
(09:20):
he witnessed in a game that erased a sixteen game
home winning streak, as extraordinarily disappointment. Coach Mike McCarthy echoed
the statement, He says, we did not improve from week
one to week two. Say that again, and that's the
biggest disappointment. The results speak for themselves, yes, they do.
As a coach working in the final year of his contract,
(09:41):
McCarthy no doubt recognizes that he can't allow this to
happen again without putting his continued employment in further jeopardy. Now,
the pressure on McCarthy and his coaching staff intensifies this
week as they prepare for the Baltimore Ravens to come
to town, and they're also coming off a loss. This
will definitely be a prove yourself game for both teams.
(10:03):
Let's hope we want it more than they do.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
Yes, please, Okay?
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Who's ready for a double dose of football on Monday Night?
Billy Monday Night Football? In Week three, the season will
feature two overlapping games in prime time, and each matchup
will feature a playoff hopeful in the AFC looking to
avoid a zero three start. Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville
Jaguars will go for their first win when they visit
Josh Allen and the two and oh Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville
(10:30):
coming off an ugly eighteen to thirteen home loss to
the Cleveland Browns. Meanwhile, Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals
are going to look to get in the win column
when they host the one to one Washington Commanders. Cincinnati
dropped to zero to two with a gun wrenching road
loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, which I wasn't mad
at because I picked.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
The Chiefs time. Yes you did.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Jacks, Bills and Commanders Bengals will overlap rather than air
back to back. The Jaguars Bills will kick off from
Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York at six point
thirty on ESPN. The Commanders in Bengals will scare square
off in Cincinnati at seven to fifteen on ABC now.
The other Monday night football doubleheaders are slated for weeks four, seven,
(11:11):
and fifteen. In Week four, it's going to be Tennessee
Titans at Miami Dolphins and Seahawks at Detroit Lions. Week seven,
Baltimore Ravens at Tampa Bay, Los Angeles Chargers at Arizona.
Week fifteen will be the Chicago Bears at Minnesota to
face the Vikings and the Atlanta Falcons. I know you
love them both, oh ye at the Las Vegas Raiders.
(11:33):
As they say, check your local listeners right there you go.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Well, you've heard them one in them show talk before
about the drama of hometown Philadelphia Eagles fans.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh yeah, and we've got some news for you.
Speaker 6 (11:48):
In case you're wondering, why the hell are they talking
about Philadelphia Eagles stuff, here's why. Okay, one fan learned
the hard way. Never take contact from a former NFL player,
especially Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelsey.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Boy.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
Yes, he's a big boy, he's a tank. Kelsey pumped
up the crowd at an Eagles tailgate party before the
team's Monday night clash against Atlanta that was at Lincoln
Financial Field in Philly. The beloved X Eagle danced NonStop
in his green track suit, and he looked as spry
as ever despite being months into retirement. At one point
during the festivities, Kelsey and an equally large fan squared
(12:25):
up on stage for what resembled a one on one drill,
but instead of butting heads, the two large guys jumped
up for a chest bump. Kelsey took the contact and
didn't budge the fan, who looked like he had a
few pounds on Kelsey wobbled backwards and seriously hurt his legs.
(12:46):
That there's no word on you if the fan was
able to shrug off the contact, you know, or if
he had to go to the hospital. But he slated
to join aj Brown on the Eagles injury reporting all
about it, even though he's not player.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
The Dallas Stars announced that thirty year old Finnish defenseman
Essel Lindell signed a five year, twenty six point twenty
five million dollar contract extension yesterday. According to a news
release from the Stars, the contract will begin at the
start of the twenty twenty five to twenty sixth INNHL
season and run through the twenty twenty nine twenty thirty season.
(13:21):
That means his rays didn't go into effect until next
season after this one. Lindell, who played all eighty two
regular season games last season, was the third ranked defenseman
with the Stars, as he posted twenty one assists, one
hundred and sixty two block shots, and scored twenty six
points In the postseason. Lindell scored five times in the
nineteen games he appeared in. Throughout his career, the two
(13:44):
hundred and sixteen pound defenseman has played in six hundred
and four games, which is the eleventh month by a
defenseman in Dallas Stars history.
Speaker 4 (13:54):
Well bo The Texas Rangers did something last night that
they haven't done a whole lot this season. They outslugged
the opponent all right. The Rangers belted thirteen hits, including
five for extra bases, to beat the Toronto Blue Jays
thirteen to eight in the series opener at Globelife Field
last night. Wyatt Langford, the rookie, was three for four
with two doubles, a home run, two walks, three runs
(14:16):
and two rbi. Leoti Taveres was three for five with
the homer, two runs and two rbi. Now, despite the
big win, Rangers pitcher Nathan Valdi was not happy with
his play last night. He allowed a season high seven
runs on a season high eleven hits and two walks
in four and two third innings. It's his shortest outing
since going three innings against the Yankees back on August tenth.
(14:38):
His previous high for runs allowed was six and five
innings against the Orioles in July. Now, the Rangers in
Blue Jays face off again tonight at the Shed. Left
handed Cody Bradford on the mound for the Rangers. First
pitch tonight will be at seven oh five at Globelife
field can't make it to the game, you can catch
it on bally Sports Southwest.
Speaker 6 (14:57):
Olympic gold medal wonder Simone Biles has signed a the
Dotted Line with Netflix and they are going to make
a documentary about her amazing life. Simone's decision to have
Netflix document her return to the Olympics may end up
helping teammate Jordan Chili's get back her bronze. Yeah, they're
gonna They're gonna be covering the same kind of things
(15:18):
that happened there. So it looks like it could turn
out that way. And Chili's filed a new appeal Monday
with the Swiss Federal Tribunal asking for the overturn of
the controversial ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport
that stripped them of her third place finish in the
floor routine at the Paris Games. As the part of
the filing, Chili's also submit a new video that was
(15:38):
taken by a Netflix documentary team filming Simone inside Bercy
Arena during the Olympics. Now in this new filing, Chili's
lawyers accused the court violating her right to be heard.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
What what I do.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
It's child, not just chili. I'm just hungry, mental back,
mental back, mental back. By the way, by.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
The way, I want chilling on my sonic burger today, right.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Chiles, it is in the new filing.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
I'm not friends with you all anymore.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yes, we are in the new filing.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
Chiles lawyers accused the court violating her right to be
heard by refusing to consider video evidence that USA Gymnastics
says proves the inquiry was submitted on time.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Now.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
In the new video, Chiles coach to see Landy could
be heard requesting a challenge to her score at a
timestamp of forty seven seconds after the score was announced.
Then she repeats the request again at fifty five, both
within the one minute time limit. Very important Court of
Arbitration for Sport ruled Landy's appeal came four seconds beyond
the one minute time limit and that's the point of
(16:50):
contingency right there. That's for scoring inquiries and recommended the
initial finishing order be restored. So they're working on it,
and it looks like this documentary might help.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
And what does she have to say? I want my man,
little back man, little backman.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
Let's go to Chiles for lundon today, get us some
of them babys.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
Oh what man.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Fallous? What was classic cross? You can go your own way?
And they did, yes, they when they realized, you know,
we could make some money if we just fucked it
up and do our shows. So that's what they did. Okay,
coming up our first round of asking stuff questions. But
now it's time for the freaking fool file. Here's a
real disturbing one. A Romanian man was recently saved by
(17:41):
doctors after cutting his wrist with an angle grinder because
he thought he had colon cancer. Why because he read
about his symptoms online. Named he'd been depressed about that
stomach pain he'd been experiencing for a while, but his
wife didn't suspect just how desperate he'd become. At one point,
(18:02):
he told his spouse that he's going out to the
barn to get some firewood, but he had more sinister plans.
A few minutes later, the woman received a text from
her husband telling her that he was sorry and that
she had been a good wife. She thought, oh my god,
he's not going to do what I think he is.
The woman immediately realized something was wrong and ran outside,
where she found the man with this grinder in one
(18:24):
hand and in the other hand it was almost completely severed.
It was dangling from his sliced wrist, and he was
bleeding profusely. His wife called the ambulance and a team
of paramedics are wired quickly to rush him to the hospital. Luckily,
there was also a plastic surgery team on call, so
he had his hand reattached after doctors stopped the bleeding.
(18:47):
Now we all know the Internet is where he can
find a wealth of really useful information. Sure, but it
can also be kind of dangerous for people who lack
the ability to understand that you simply cannot leave everything
you read on the energey thank you, especially medical information.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Yeah, they're always warning people don't go to web md,
don't get a real doctor to to to investigate.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
So I'm gonna go to the doctor.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
WebMD is just gonna freak you out, Yeah I will.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
A California man recently noticed something was not quite right
with his utility bill because he was a little high.
After further investigation, the power company discovered he's been paying
someone else's bill for nearly twenty years.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
What a year?
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Yes, Ken Wilson keeps a watchful eye on how much
energy he uses, especially in recent months since he got
such a high bill. He even bought a device to
tell him how many wants his appliances give off so
that he can track his daily energy usage down to
the exact number. So Wilson, who lives in an apartment complex,
soon realized that something was wrong with his energy usage,
(19:54):
as shown on power company Pacific Gas and Electrics website.
I thought there was a leak, or someone was stealing
my electricity, or the meter was faulty, because something really
wasn't right, he said. Wilson called Pacific Gas an electric
who sent a worker out to check his meter. That
was when it was confirmed Wilson's apartment, unit ninety was
linked to the wrong meter, so he was paying the
(20:16):
utility bill for unit ninety one. Since Wilson has lived
in the same apartment since two thousand and six, he
thinks this has been going on since he first moved in.
He says, since he lives alone, his bill should be
much lower than any other unit. He was still paying
for the wrong meter as of this week.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
He says.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
The power company indicated the error will not be corrected
until the next building cycle.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
They need to give this guy a great yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Yeah, give him some free power juice for a while,
thank you. Yeah something twenty years wow.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Over in Florida, we got a man who's been trying
to live a very low key life due to his
shady past. And then whoops, he fell out of a
boat and there was an incident, okay, and that got
him back in hot water again. Florida man fell out
of a boat earlier this week and landed in a
jail cell after Polk County Fire and Rescue responding to
a call about two boaters falling overboard. And when they arrived,
(21:12):
they see that these people have already been rescued by
a man who jumped into the water with pool noodles
to save their life. Both men were checked out by
medics and questioned by Sheriff's deputies. So one of the
men provided a name that deputies suspected might be fake.
They checked his fingerprints and they confirmed this guy's full
of blogoney. Why all surprised he had a few warrants
(21:34):
thirty six year old Timothy Lanthrip and cops saw that
he had six active warrants out for his arrest. Six
he was allowed to dry off.
Speaker 8 (21:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Yes, Then they took him away to the.
Speaker 6 (21:46):
Showers, so to speak, for giving false information to the cops.
But when they asked him how come he wasn't honest
about his name, he said, well, I knew I had
warrants out and I didn't think you guys would check.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
You didn't think they check?
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Whatever?
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Okay, Ooh what a web we weave when we decide
to deceive. A Chinese woman was recently charged with fraud
for allegedly cheating free men out of nearly one hundred
thousand dollars by marrying them in staid ceremonies despite already
being married. The thirty five year old fraudster was already
(22:24):
married and raising a daughter when she started dating other
men with the purpose of defrauding them of their money.
She would secretly marry them and then divorce each one
after about a month later, after taking their money and disappearing.
One of the factors that allowed the woman known as
Zoo to juggle between four husbands over several years was
(22:46):
the fact that her real husband was always busy at
work and didn't pay much attention to her. Her good
looks quickly caught the eye of three gullible men who
never suspected her true intentions. She dated them all at
the same time, managing to spend time with all of
them without raising the suspicion of her real husband before
asking them to marry her whoa gross Her plan came
(23:09):
crashing down last year when she tried to squeeze more
money out of one of her fake husbands, a man
called Zang by telling him she was pregnant with twins
and she wanted to give birth to another city where
her mother lived. She constantly sent him pictures of fake
checkup results and even photos of newborn babies that she
got off the internet. It was when Zang came to
(23:31):
see his babies he wanted to see his new baby,
that his own mother came with him and her plan
was discovered after hearing about his wife's secret life of crime.
Who's real husband divorced her. She now faces a minimum
of ten years in prison for fraud as she should
be absolutely how.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Many guys was she rotating at once?
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Four guys? Four guys? Okay, well you're in trouble.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Now, Gara, And you know I'm getting a lot of
email bow from roscuiels who really want to score these
tickets to experience Hendrix, The Show where you can celebrate
the music and legacy of the Great Jimmy Hendrix, coming

to five.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Dallas fort Worst Classic Rock lone Star ninety two five. Well,
today is Wellmsday, which means it's ascu's Stuff Day. And
of course we have the Ask the Stuff Hotline. You'd
call any time with a question two on four eight, six, six,
eighty six hundred. Are we ready to kick it into
high gimmes and about yes we are. Well, here's your
(24:41):
first question, and it's a NASCAR question.
Speaker 9 (24:44):
I want to know how Kyle Reddick ended up with
the most points NASCAR when Kyle laws and kick everyone
Walts knows that.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
And you Kelly's upset. It's all in the crazy way.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
That they give points in NASCAR.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
So Reddick held off Larson to win the regular season
title by one point earlier this month in Darlington, despite
all the wins on the track that Larson had Tyler
Reddick entered the cutoff race at Darlington with a seventeen
point advantage over Kyle Larson in the battle to win
the regular season. Plus fan say, there's a huge asterisk
right by Kyle Larson's name because he missed an entire
(25:24):
race season. So it's all in the crazy.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Way that NASCAR gives points.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Okay, here's something about television.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
So TV in the eighties and nineties you had.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Twenty twenty five episodes per season. Compared to modern TV
you have eight or nine or twelve episodes max.
Speaker 9 (25:41):
What happened?
Speaker 5 (25:42):
Why are they cut down?
Speaker 8 (25:44):
Why is it shortened?
Speaker 9 (25:45):
That's my question.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
Okay, this reflects changes in the audience expectations, viewership patterns,
network strategies, and the advent of streaming. The model introduced
by the proliferation of streaming platforms favors more dnsed episodes
when compared to the traditional network model. That's why there's
a fewer episodes in a season. Before A big motivator
(26:09):
for longer television seasons was because of syndication. Television series
qualified for syndication after airing one hundred episodes, which could
be done in four or five seasons as long as
they had a bunch of episodes during the season.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Ah, there you have it, here's one. I think I
got this one, Miselle. Oh there that Diane.
Speaker 8 (26:30):
We were talking about Trampeze of a Night. Whatever happened
to that band?
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Well, funny you should ask, because I was bitching because
Glenn Hughes didn't play any Trapeze songs.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
This long.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Trapeze was formed in nineteen sixty nine by the members
of the West Midlands bands Finders Keepers and The Montanas.
The band released seven studio albums between nineteen seventy and
seventy nine and four live albums between nineteen eighty one
and two thousand and six. I remember seeing them at
the Majestic Theater in like seventy one with Marshall Tucker.
(27:01):
The Marsa Tucker Band is the opening up. The original
lineup was Glenn Hughes who played guitar handled vocals, Mel
Gali who played bass, and drummer Dave Holland. The band
Trapeze has had several changes in personnel and activity over
the years, including breaking up in nineteen eighty two after
Glenn Hughes had already left years earlier, and mel Galley
(27:21):
joined Whitesnake. The original alignment of Hughes, Galley and Holland
reunited in nineteen ninety one for a tour and recorded
the live album Welcome to the Real World in ninety two.
They reunited again in ninety four for a short too
tour in the US and Europe, with Craig Erickson as
a second guitarist. Now, mel Gali died of esophagal cancer
(27:43):
in two thousand and eight, and Dave Holland died of
lung cancer in twenty eighteen. Glenn Hughes is the only
surviving member of the original lineup. We saw him just
a couple of Fridays ago. In two thousand and four,
Dave Holland was arrested and later found guilty by a
jury of one count of attempted rape and five counts
of indecent assault against a seventeen year old male with
(28:05):
learning disability. Yes to make it worse, Oh yeah, the
kid was his student drawing.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
Yes, yes, yes, that's sick. There's some sick people. And
what's that trapeze song that you love so much? He
really wanted to hear black Cloud, Black.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Cloud, and he didn't even touch it.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
You should have shouted it out, kind of like instead
of saying free birds, say black cloud.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
I'm sorry. They sit panned out and shut up.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
And you're not a woman in the front row.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
You don't have rest, so shut up.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
How many screaming women did old Glenn Hughes having the yeah?
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Oh, how many little heart shapes did he make with.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
His he's touch a flirt? Okay, here's another one.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
While they call semi trucks semis, I mean you have
semi pro baseball, semi pro football, semi pro everything else,
But a semi truck is the pro of the roads.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Seems like that would only be half a truck.
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Yeah, because that's what semi means half, right, So a
semi trailer is a trailer without a front axle. The
combination of a semi trailer and a tractor truck is
called a semi trailer truck, also known similarly as a
semi trailer or semi in the US. So there you
have it. It doesn't have a front axle, so it's half.
That's why it usually has legs like a landing gear
(29:28):
that are lowered to keep it upright, and when it's
uncoupled from the unit.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Would you like an animal question? Yes, here you go.
Speaker 9 (29:35):
I wonder who's faster dogger cat?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Who's faster a dogar a cat?
Speaker 4 (29:40):
Now I'm assuming he's talking about a domestic cat, because
of course we all know cheetahs. They run like sixty
five to seventy miles per hour.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Has a cheetah first? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (29:48):
So typically a domestic cat can run it speeds of
up to thirty miles per hour, but this varies depending
on their age, size, and breed. Dogs typically can run
it speeds of around fifteen twenty miles per hour for
short distances. But a greyhound, Yeah, greyhounds go forty five
miles per hour forty five mile yes, so I guess
(30:11):
the dog would be faster as long as it's a greyhound.
Speaker 6 (30:13):
That's the same top speed for a spotted leopard forty.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Five miles per hour.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Wow, shame you can't find a greyhound to race with
you sometimes. That's what I'm talking about. The bigger the cushion,
the better the pushing. Oh mama, what task his stuff day?
I believe Annabelle has an email question here.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Yeah, they emailed on Monday, and this is from Jeff
and Plano among active NFL players Who has the most
career touchdowns? And the answer is Mike Evans who has
played eleven seasons for the Buccaneers.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
He's an Aggie, by the way, Yeah, and he.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Has scored ninety seven touchdown dail.
Speaker 10 (30:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
Closest to him, coming in second Davante Adams who's played
for the Packers and the Raiders. He scored ninety six touchdowns.
Ezekiel Elliott did make the top five, by the way,
he says eighty six touchdowns to his name.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
None of them lately though.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
True.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
All right, here's a question about something that you see
outside of a barber shop.
Speaker 7 (31:16):
What is the origin of the barber shop red, white
and blue thing that's been around up by the store.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Yeah, it's called a barber pole and it originated in
Europe during the Middle Ages. Barbers were the only people
with the tools needed for shaving and trimming, and they
also perform minor surgeries, dentistry and blood letting. What the
pole originated from a rod that patients gripped during the
blood letting to make their veins bulge out so they
(31:46):
could be easily sliced off. The colors of the barber
pole have symbolic meanings. Red symbolizes blood, white represents the
bandages used in blood letting, and blue symbolize the color
of the The spiral pattern on the barber pole come
from the twisting and turning of the bloody bandages in
the wind after a procedure.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Can you imagine going to the barbershop and it's like, okay,
do you want a haircut or do you want me
to give you a root canal?
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Could you take a little off the sides and make
me bleed a little bit?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
That makes me dream of blood vessels while you're down there?
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Yeah, exactly, thank you. Okay, here's one. Where did the
term cat got your tongue come from? Cat got your tongue?
That phrase is used to ask someone why they're not
speaking or is unusually quiet. For example, if someone is
not responding during an argument, you might ask, hey, cat
got your tongue. In the English navy, the cat of
(32:42):
nine tails was a whip used to punish sailors who misbehave.
The pain was so intense that it was said to
leave the sailors speechless for months at a time. In
Egyptian time, some believe that liars were punished by having
their tongues cut out and fed to cats. In the
Middle Ages, some believe that a witch's black cat would
(33:02):
steal a person's tongue, leaving them silent. However, some say
there's no evidence to support either of those theories. Others
say that the expression sounds old, but isn't. There are
no instances of it in print until the mid nineteenth century,
so it hadn't been around that long. And here's one
for you. This is about cake that we all know
(33:25):
and love.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
Where did German chocolate cake? German chocolate putting?
Speaker 11 (33:31):
Where?
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Where did German chocolate come from?
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Now?
Speaker 2 (33:33):
I heard it didn't have anything to do with the
country of Germany.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
From there no.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
In eighteen fifty three, Samuel German, an English American baker
working for the Baker's Chocolate Company, created a sweeter, darker
baking chocolate that he called German sweet chocolate because that
was his name. Samuel German. Now German chocolate cake. Get this,
It originated right here in Dallas.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
It is America. Mention.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Nineteen fifty seven, Missus George Clay, a housewife from Dallas,
published her German chocolate cake recipe in the Dallas Morning
News and General Foods, which owned the Baker's brand at
the time, distributed the recipe to other newspapers across the country.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
So, in other words, other day, Hey, we hate you guys.
We had Dallas Cowboy. Yeah, but we invented German chocolate cakes. Yeah,
thank you. Okay, So there, here's another one.
Speaker 9 (34:27):
Why do people tap their glasses and say cheers or
a toast?
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Well, let mis blame. People clink glasses when toasting for
a number of reasons, honoring the gods. In many cultures,
drinking was accompanied by some form of honoring the gods.
The act of clinking glasses may have been away to
spill some of the drink to leave for the gods.
They also believed it warded off evil spirits, and medieval
times people may have clinked glasses and cheered loudly to
(34:56):
ward off the evil spirits to avoid poisoning. In the
medieval period, wine was sometimes spiked with poison, so clinking
glasses together may have been a way to ensure that
guests and hosts weren't poisoning each other. And clinking glasses
may also have been done to complete the drinking experience
by pleasing all the five senses. Awww, now you know

Speaker 2 (51:02):
Oh those plans never work out, do they right?
Speaker 7 (51:05):
For second time? And you know, I had a little
party planned and then I tested like two days before
and I was still positive. So I said, I can't
riff that I'm going to be okay in two days,
you know, or test negative. So I called it off.
So I still had a good birthday. My husband Lance
gave me seventy roses. Oh yeah, that's pretty spectacular.
Speaker 2 (51:31):
Now, WFAA TV Channel eight is celebrating seventy five years
of being on the air. Why that's older than me
and glorious. You guys have covered a lot of stories
over the years. What are some of the happiest and
most disturbing things that you remember about stories you covered?
Speaker 4 (51:51):
Well?
Speaker 7 (51:51):
You know, I would have to start with disturbing, because
that's part of the reason why I, you know, quit working,
is that I had no idea that anything existed like
compassion fatigue. But when you hear day in day out
the bad stuff people do to each other and the
bad things that happened, you know, it kind of wears
(52:13):
on you because you can't just forget about it. You
have to immerse yourself in the dirty and ugly details.
Speaker 1 (52:20):
You know.
Speaker 10 (52:20):
The sword part.
Speaker 7 (52:21):
Of being alive and being a human being. So I
would have to say those are the low points. But
the high points, of course is that you know, we
would do a story on somebody's house that got burned
down and how people just came together who didn't even
know these people, to help them. And you know, I
was looking back at some of our coverage and all
(52:42):
the people that lined up to give blood after nine
to eleven. It's that sort of thing that you know,
you may be down one day, but the next day
you're up because there is a lot of good in humanity.
Speaker 2 (52:55):
See, we all have to look out for each other
because we're always got exactly.
Speaker 7 (53:00):
And that's what we're here for. I believe you know,
I'm not, you know, a very religious person, but I
do believe bo that we're here for a reason, and
that reason is to help each other.
Speaker 2 (53:13):
That's right.
Speaker 7 (53:14):
So that's always been my view. I could be wrong.
Maybe I'll find out someday. You know, Jackson Brown says
we don't really know why we're here, and I just
feel that in my bone, so I think he's wrong.
Speaker 5 (53:28):
Gloria.
Speaker 4 (53:28):
You retired in March of twenty fourteen. I think the
majority of North Texans will always think of you and
Wednesday's Child, which you hosted. You change the lives of
so many families when you were doing Wednesday's Child, and
of course it continues. But for me, you know, being
here in North Texas, for as long as I have,
(53:48):
I always associate Wednesday's Child with Gloria compos Have you
stayed in touch with any of the families, Well, not really.
Speaker 7 (53:57):
I've really kind of had a quiet retirement. I don't
live in Dallas Fort Worth anymore. As I told you
last evening, I live in the hill country, and I
came here in search.
Speaker 2 (54:09):
Of a little peace.
Speaker 1 (54:10):
You know.
Speaker 7 (54:11):
Every now and then I will see something on Facebook
that someone.
Speaker 8 (54:15):
Will reach out.
Speaker 7 (54:15):
Usually it's to try to get their videos from years back,
and you know, I give them suggestions on how they
might get that, but it is, you know, we're talking
about hundreds of kids. And I was talking to Cynthia.
I figured who's doing it now? Of course Don Friswell,
me and Cynthia have She carries on that tradition. And
(54:40):
I thought I had done it maybe fifteen sixty seventeen years.
I think we figured I did it close to twenty wow.
So yeah, So It was a very much part of
my life for a long time. And you know, of course,
feel very strongly about children in foster care. And you know,
our state of Texas really is not reached the bar
(55:02):
that these kids deserve. You know, they've already been shorted
by their parents who they had no hand in choosing,
and you know, I just wish we could do better
for them. You know, the more if you hear stories
about them sleeping in hallways and on the floors and
CPS offices and that's just not right. We can do
(55:23):
better for kids in Texas, we really can, and especially
those that have already dealt a bad hand.
Speaker 2 (55:28):
Do you miss doing the news on Channel eight since
you retired, or do you say, man, I'm glad, I'm done.
Speaker 4 (55:34):
I am glad I am dead.
Speaker 7 (55:36):
Though you know, it was a great job, a wonderful career.
It afforded me many opportunities that a little girl from
South Texas could only dream about, right, Yeah, you know,
traveling the world and you know, going to inhugurations and
you know, meeting presidents and going to the White House.
(55:57):
All of that is just beyond what I could have
ever have dreamed of as a child. So I feel
very blessed and fortunate that I had the life and
career that I have had. Do I miss the day
to day No, I do not. I really don't.
Speaker 2 (56:13):
Well, out of all the anchors you worked with, which
one was the biggest prankster? Oh?
Speaker 10 (56:19):
Prankster?
Speaker 7 (56:20):
Well, you know that is a good question. You know,
I'd have to say that it's the combo of the
two Tracy and Troy.
Speaker 2 (56:31):
Youre going to I knew you were going to say Tracy.
I knew I knew you were going to say that.
Speaker 4 (56:35):
Awesome, you know, And it was fun working with those guys.
Speaker 7 (56:40):
And you know, they I saw Tracy when.
Speaker 10 (56:43):
We take that special. We take it at the end
of August.
Speaker 7 (56:48):
August and of course it airs tonight at nine o'clock
and I say, well, you can't call me kid anymore.
Speaker 10 (56:56):
I'm seventy.
Speaker 7 (56:57):
You know, I'll never forget, you know.
Speaker 10 (56:59):
He he once said the when you know we were
working together and I think I turned forty, and he said, hey,
you know, forty is great, but you know, sixty is
the S word. That was his perspective on aging. But
(57:19):
it just cracked me up, because you know, it was
him looking at it from a longer life than me,
so it was great seeing him recently.
Speaker 7 (57:29):
I owe John you know who. Of course, you know
we all went our separate ways. I think Tracy still
lives in Dallas. I owe it closer time between North
Texas and Arizona.
Speaker 10 (57:41):
And then of course John's down in the valley where
a lot of people thought I might.
Speaker 7 (57:44):
Wind up because you know, I.
Speaker 9 (57:45):
