Steve Kelly, Laurence Smith, Adam Moron show, Ladies and gentlemen,
Brett Mekaita. It is Wednesday, August twentieth, Top five times Schmitty.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Where do we start?
Speaker 3 (00:11):
I mean at number five. Let's take a little trip,
shall we, gentlemen. This is a real life thing in Germany.
Welcome to another round of the German Shopping Cart Archery Championships.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Sorry ah light ile bite diza fo nals de laus.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
It's a group of contestants. They have eight rounds to
literally stand behind a line and shove a shopping cart
into the cart corral and try to make it right
on the bullseye center area.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
From distance, from distance. Didn't you use brooms in the Nope,
It's just.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
A one person shoving their cart into the corral and
the Germans Alivia.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Oh, I like this commentator. He's so wrap. It sounds
like bretton high school football. I would be into this.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
I would not not the commentator, but actually being a
participant because I do that all the time.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Admire just give it a oh yeah right across the lane.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
It would be great at this man boy, the.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Small cart area, because if it's a large card, they
don't want the large cart and the small cart.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Steve think if you paid for those cards, you'd be
a little more careful. At number four in the list
of Para, Ohio police officers engaged in a very slow
speed chase involving an escaped tortoise on the loose in
North Canton.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
Tortoise. I don't know if there's anybody we can call
because he keeps.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Walking out into the roadway that can come and get
him so he doesn't get hit. Some days are boring.
Not that day.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
In the North Canton Police Department, officers discovered that huge
tortoise clearly out of place. It's in protective care until
they can find the owner.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Just so you know, Michigan.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Football fans, you have to wait a year, sort of
like you did with Bryce Underwood after he decommitted to
from LSU and became a Michigan Wolf.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
For a pretty good price tag as well.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I don't know what the price tag is on this one,
but nice gift before the season even starts. The number
one running back recruit in the class of twenty twenty six,
so he won't get the campus probably until December January
for early in rolls, but Savion Heider has had his
list a five star prospect, number nine in the country
regardless of position. According to twenty four to seven Sports, Georgia, Tennessee, Michigan,
(02:30):
Ohio State is finalist. He chose Michigan yesterday. Congratulations. Out
of Mineral Virginia. He chose the Wolverines. Wants to team
up with Bryce Sunderwood. That's a pretty good one two punch. Offensively,
he ran for sixteen hundred and ninety eight yards average
ten point eight yards per Carrie. Yeah, he's five to eleven,
two hundred pound and he can fly. So Savian Heider, congratulations.
(02:53):
The best running back of twenty twenty six coming to
Michigan next year.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Mineral Virginia sounds like a good place to lose a turtle.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
At number two.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
A new book called Disney Adults, Exploring and Falling in
Love with a Magical subculture is shining a light on
how Disney World is really starting to profit from these
weirdos who go to Disney World with no kids. Their
Epcot just recently opened up a new adults only section.
Park revenue is at an all time high, but the
most staggering statistic. Forty two percent of the people waiting
(03:25):
in line to see buzz Lightyear when they were writing
this book were childless adults. So if you are in
line to see buzz light Year, just know that about
half the people in line with you are weird.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
I'm not judging it. Have you guys seen that Disney
has adult only nightclubs? Now, what's very incredible. So you
know what, don't knock it till you try it.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
We have friends who have no children and love to
go to Disney World and they buy the expensive swag.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Of course they do their danks, right.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I wonder if they go to the Disney on Ice
stuff and they hail down the people selling stuff as
opposed to those like they're not there.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I tell whenever we go to Disney and Ice, I'm like,
everything's broken.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
I can't really criticize because I look at it like
that's their sports team, right, Like if I'm going to
spend a lot of money on Lion's gear or Mister
State gear, that is doing Disney right.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
It's okay.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
If you're a closet buzz light.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Year, you don't want to sit next to them at Thanksgiving,
but more power to them.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Hey, there's forty one percent of us as well besides me,
And there you have it.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I get a little more than forty one.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Finally, at number one on the list, a new moon
discovered orbiting Uranus is so small.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
You could walk it in two hours. Okay, it's like
the Macana Island of moons.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
It's like the Mecanaw Island of moons. Roll out the
cosmic welcome matt for our solar system's newest resident, a
never seen before moon orbiting Uranus. They made the announcement yesterday.
It's about ninety football fields and the new James Webb
Space Telescope was the one to see it. Is there
(05:01):
a bike option because it's a long walks as long
as it's an e bike. Yeah, you know what I mean,
you're gonna explore youranus.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
I want an e bike on top of those solar winds.
Too nice.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
You knew what you did there. Well done, justin Barkley
