Time on this day in seventeen eighty nine, is declared
by JORGEY Washington on October third, Today was Thanksgiving Day
in America.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Today. Yeah, it was on a Wednesday. That's what it
says here, seventeen eighty nine. Today was supposed to be
the first one. Today. In seventeen ninety one, Washington holds
the first Cabinet meeting at his home in Philly, and
immediately somebody drove by and started shooting guns and us.
We got to get out of this town. So there's
way too much to head for the West coast. I
mean they left Philly and headed west. I think that's
(05:44):
a different story, but that's a good one too. Today,
in eighteen thirty two, the first horse drawn street cars
running on rails started carrying people around New York City.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah. Today, in nineteen excuse me. Today, in eighteen forty two,
the University of Notre Dame was founded. Later on, they
decided to pronounce it Notre Dame. Yeah, it makes more
sense today. In eighteen ninety six, Amos Stagg of the
University of Chicago created the huddle for football games.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Who knew? Is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, Amos Stag. Yeah, that's why they call it a
stag circle. Sorry, no, they don't.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Today.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
In nineteen forty two, Casablanca, some considered to be America's
greatest film, premier to New York City. It was on Thanksgiving.
People went to see that film on Thanksgiving. They enjoyed
their sour patch kids and their red Bull diet red
Bull Today. In nineteen forty nine, India became the sovereign
Democratic Republic.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
So good for you, India. Yeah, give it up today.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
In nineteen fifty six, The Price Is Right game show
debuted on NBC, hosted by game show legend Bill Cullen.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Who the f is Bill Cullen? Nobody's ever heard of
that guy. I think they mean Bob Barker. Today.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
In nineteen fifty seven, twenty two months into his second term,
President Eisenhower suffered a stroke. He was hospitalized for three
weeks and he's still and he's turned out. Fine, he's
still alive. Today.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Today, in nineteen sixty three, Rogers stopped Staubuck has awarded
the Heisman Trophy. It actually says triphy here he got
a Heisman triphy. It almost sounded like you'd never heard
his name before and didn't know how to pronounce it.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I know all about it, but everything's spelled wrong on this.
So I just thought i'd Roger Staboch. Yeah, there you go.
He was a softball player. Today, in nineteen sixty nine,
Nixon signs the legislation making the draft lottery for men
into a thing. Thanks a lot, Dick Nixon. Ooh, Today
in nineteen seventy six, this is a good one, kind
of it wasn't the beginning of punk rock, because I
(07:31):
give that to the I really give credit to that
to the Ramones. But on this day, in nineteen seventy six,
wrong song, the Sex Pistols released their first single.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Anarchy in the UK. It still holds up in my opinion.
Oh of course, yeah, it's strong cow stuff. Yeah. And today,
in nineteen seventy nine, Venezuela well as oil was discovered
to be larger than opex. A turn up country into
an amazing place. I mean they were they had and
it was very sophisticated and advanced, and so they thought, well,
(08:05):
we're doing so well, why don't we put I know,
let's put a communist in charge. And look at that today,
that's just about the biggest hell hole on the planet.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I would rather live in a nation englfed in anarchy
than live in a communist country.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
All right, I'm gonna move you over to Haiti. See
how you enjoy that. Yeah, I'm better than Venezuela. Well
actually no, no, I wonder okay, maybe not today. Actually
the people from Haiti went to Venezuela. That's where it
gets competence. So that's kind of mixed up.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Today, in eighteen ninety one, New York City starts handing
out thousands of condoms to high school kids. Today in
nineteen ninety one, wonder what they did with them. I
think they used them to make balloon animals. And today,
in two thousand, George w is certified the winner of
fida's electoral votes and the two thousand presidential election.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Back in this still continued to go on. They still
went back and forth on it. Yeah, why can't democrats
accept election results? I just I don't understand back then,
and it was considered a swing state. You got any
you want to shove it ring in the States? No,
I I was just waiting for you to finish because
I have celebrity updates for you. Do tell first of all,
(09:10):
the CMA Awards this past Wednesday. I kept telling you
how sick and day I'm tired. I was hearing about
them being promoted, and I'm glad they were over Sam.
It looked like the rest of the general public kind
of feels the same way as I do. The CMA
Awards lowest ratings at six million viewers. That happens every year.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Every year they go this award shows, the lowest ratings
ever because nobody cares about award shows anymore.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Over the last ten years, the cmas have gone from
sixteen million down to six million this year.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
At what point will major TV networks just decide, you know,
what's bad for ratings.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
And there's not going to carry these award shows. Why
don't they just stream them on Ulu or something?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
You know, once upon a time, I mean during our
our younger listeners remember this, but there was a time
when you didn't have twenty four hour access to celebrities
on social media. So an award show is interesting. Look
at you, it's a famous person I never get to
see outside of the TV movie or acting or being
a character.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
There's being themselves. But now who cares?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
You could see every celebrity anytime you want, and you
don't even want to see them. So what's the point
of the award show? It doesn't give you access to anything.
It's not interesting. No, it's just rich, famous people patting
themselves on the back for having better lives than us.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Also a SAT update from the Miss Universe contest. Doctor
Gabrielle Henry has been crowned Miss Universe Jamaica for twenty
twenty five. It was their second go and this time
she won. She won the title at an event I
guess last week at Saint Andrew. However, Gabrielle is currently
(10:54):
lying in a hospital bit in intensive care after falling
either on stage or falling from the stage. I haven't
yet figured that one out. She fell while she was
doing the evening Gown performance, walking those high heels and
it's so bad. She's how bad was recovering in intensive
(11:17):
care well? They say she will spend at least a
week monitoring her medical condition. That sounds terrible. That sounds terrible.
Sounds like somebody gave her something that gave her the runs.
What it sounds like she just trying to hide it.
Maybe she has like a gluten intolerance and she had
too much beer. Girls don't like to talk about the
runs much. You know, it's like it's unladylike or something.
(11:40):
I don't know that's true. That's really sad. Well, anyway,
here's the east Side Holiday.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Hotline or a lafe. Thank you for calling the east
Side Holiday Highline. I'm a little puppy. How would you
like me to stuff your bird today? Okay, right now,
I'm going to teach you the proper method to marinate
it your turkey proper homes. Basically, it's all about the
liquor you use. My personal favorites include Old English eight
(12:06):
hundred mickeys, or perhaps a nice forty ounce of steel reserve,
you know, if you're filling off classy. And for this recipe,
I have selected a nice two thousand and four bottle
of Old English ninety nine cents special at the liquor
store on the corner. A little pricey, but it is
the holiday seasons Okay, first, open the bottle, pour a
(12:28):
little loud for the homeboys that are no longer with us.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
I miss you, Spider.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Okay, Now take a swig to make sure it tastes. Okay,
that's a great year, homes Then check it out. You
want to pour a little bit on your turkey. Okay,
they don't take it all. I gotta have some two now,
a little more for me to give me in the
cooking spirit.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Oh that's some good shit.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
I'm starting to get a little buzz, you know what, Bertie,
you're starting to look kind of nice. Come over here, girl,
let me hold you for a minute. Looking on hot
and greasy like that. You're just ready to be cooked
or what. Well, this Futo has a special recipe. You're
gonna love Camier. Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about, girl, totally.
Thank you for calling. But the highline is now officially
(13:23):
closed for the next fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Hark the Hair Turkey saying Gabbo Gabbo, Gabbo, Gobbo, Gabbo
Gabbo Gabbo.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Wilson and Johnson Radio Network. I think I think one
of the reasons why this radio show is popular and
why it works is because unlike a lot of the
so called right wing talk show hosts, we're not pretending
to be good people.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that, you know,
I'm not a sinner, a scumbager, a degenerate.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I'm all those things, and.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
I tell you wouldn't tell you I would, and I
don't pretend to not be and I'm there are people
on the radio right now probably cheat on their wives
with three different people in a cocaine addiction, and I
just look, I wear all your kinks and your bad
habits on your sleeve. That's what I've always said. Don't
pretend to be something you're not. And so if you're
tuning into this show to look for a role model
(14:13):
or a moral compass or something like that, you've come
to the wrong place. It's not at all who we are.
We're not trying to be. I would not play poker
with me, you know what I mean? Yeah, if I
was you, I would not trust me with your wallet,
is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
You know you don't know, absolutely you shouldn't.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Anyway, now that we've established that people are pretty upset
that a Hawaiian tourist pick up us, he picked up
a sea turtle.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Oh god, he's already violated terrible law. I mean, it's
a law, and he violated it terribly.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I don't think he knew that. We've got a video
of it. Let me put it up on the screen here,
so you and the we.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Picked it up, like to see if he could because
they're heavy, or was he planning on taking it back
to his room.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
We're live streaming on social media for those of you
that care to watch this. It looks like he's taking
a photo with it, would be my guess.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Hang on a second, here, Yeah, there it is. We've
got it. Oh yeah, he's posing with the turtle. That'll
put you in jail. You can see the man propping
the turtle up so he can take a picture with it.
Hawaiian green sea turtles are protected under both state law
and the federal and dangerous suppose. Oh my god, look
that is disgusting.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Would you just look at how just just look at
how disgusting that is.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Look at his the woman with him, Yeah, yeah, don't
be out of shape, gross, she's a dumpling. Minute my god,
hit the gym lady. But yeah, you're not supposed to
mess with the turtles. Even if you're underwater with the turtles,
don't touch them, touch them all right? Riddle?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Mean this batman in there thing that sometimes people get
sexually assaulted by a dolphin.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Well, it could could be a thing. You know, they
all bottle nose dolphins after all.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
What do you do if you're just swimming along, minding
your own business, and you're on vacation in Hawaii, your
coast Rica or whatever, the one comes a sea turtle
and it smells you and it thinks your wife's nether
regions are baits or.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
So you've got to do what you can to protect
your wife from the turtle assault.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
What if the turtle's nudge and his a little head
up there between your wife's legs and getting into men
You're like, hey, you know, well.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
That's what I'm asking. He's like, aren't you allowed to
defend yourself?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
You know?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I get it's an endangered species, but I'm getting unwanted
attention from the sea turtle here.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Normally you roll them on their back, but I don't
know if it works on the water. I don't think
it's gonna work on the one. Here's my other question too.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Everybody has to have a paper straw now, because the
sea turtles might die if one of these plastic straws.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Could you know statistically how unlikely that is? That is?
They say it happened once. I'm pretty sure that was
somebody stuck a straw up a turtle's nose, took a
picture and then send it into Greta Thunberg or somebody
and said, hey, we got to put a stop to this.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Okay, I have gret news and I want to talk
about that book. God before we get to her. Maybe
if a plastic straw can kill you, it's because you're
supposed to die.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
I'm just saying, all right.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Former Person of the Year climate activist Greta Thunburg has
been banned from Italy, and rightfully so. She's not allowed
in Italy anymore after she apparently filled Italy's the Italian
city of Venice's Grand Canal with green food coloring and
it died to.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Show you how terrible the earth is to you know,
to the environment.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Funburg, the twenty two year old autistic girl, joined environmental
group Extinction Rebellion over the weekend when they poured dye
into the iconic water corridors that outline the historic city
of Venice, and so the dye, which is a non
toxic tracer often used in environmental studies, transformed the waters
of the Grand Canal into a bright green color, very
(17:53):
common in Chicago. Every year, we would dye the Chicago
River green and then it would stay that way the
rest year because it's just dirty.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
The group, in an effort to.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Highlight the massive effects of climate change, hung a banner
that read stop Eco side from the rialto bridge and
then sent protesters dressed in red veils. Red veils, that's
what they're supposed to do to Trump. Why were they
wearing red veils that?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
It makes no sense. They're all over the road with
their messaging.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I thought they dressed like that to make some point
about women's rights. What's this guy to do with the
right being ecological? It's probably just what the head available. Anyway,
The group, in an effort to oh, okay, we already
explain that. So she not allowed into Italy anymore? Is
that forever and ever or just like for the rest
of the week. If you were Italy, would you want
her coming back?
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Of course not. I think it's you know how the
Italians are, well, you know better than most. I think
it's temporary, but yeah, you're right. Italians are famously quitters.
I mean, look at World War Two.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
If Hitler had aligned himself with I don't know, some
other country that you know, didn't give up so easily,
would we all be speaking German right now?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yah? I think you're doing a Swedish accent. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Yeah, oh there you go, that said Billy. That's nothing
like a good job, Bill. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. Washington,
d C's Mayor Muriel Bowser is not returning. She's had
enough with being the mayor of the city. After four terms.
She said she has done. She won't run for a
fourth term after three terms. She said, Oh, Trump's going
to miss her. He said they worked well together. Did
(19:23):
you know yesterday on this news, on this radio show,
we missed the fact that we broke a story.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
What do you mean? We were interviewing Mayor John Whitmyer
of Houston, and he mentioned he used the word eight
years to describe his tenure as mayor of Houston and
he's only been a mayor two years. He's only in
his first term. Yeah, did he unintentionally announce he's going
to run again?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
On this radio show, and then we broke it and
we didn't even we weren't even paying attention.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Can we fix it? Well, I think we just did.
Didn't break it as in break the news.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Yeah, you know, I assumed he knew, And then when
he said that, I thought he just meant can we
fix it with t tell in the audience?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
But oh okay, so we had breaking news? Is what
you're meant to say?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Sometimes I think you're messing with me, like you do
know what we're talking about, and you pretending not nothing.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Then you look in his eyes and your realize, yees,
i' got a clue. Man, I'm calling the east Side

You are hopping up and down in your chair like
a little boy who has to pee.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
What is wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
You know?
Speaker 1 (01:39):
I have a short memory.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I mean I'm good at memory memorizing, like you know,
news stories and stuff like that. But if somebody walks
up to me at a bar and they go, hey
on Monday to Billy, I never remember. I never remembered
to do it. Who said to tell me something? Somehow
I remembered this, Not you, Billy, It's for mister Kenneth.
Mister Kenneth. I ran into a listener. I think Friday
night could have been Saturday I don't remember, and I.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Threw it a drunken comedy express.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
His name's Mike and it's his birthday. Mike, when's his
birthday today? How do you remember that? I don't know.
It just clicked in that I was like, you know, Wednesday,
nine am. And then I looked at my phone. I
was like, there it is.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
I remember. She made a note to remember.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I made an alert and I remembered before I saw
the As soon as you started doing birthdays, spam a
lightning rod. It was like God wanted me to remind everybody.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Him and haf four Bjorn Center celebrating their birthdays today.
Can we say happy birthday to Mike? He's not famous?
Oh god, no, No, this is a celebrity birthday. So
so Mike is right out.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
So if Mike the listener who came to our comedy
show last weekend and is a big supporter of the show,
we're famous. We'd be talking about how cool he is
right now and saying happy birthday to him, and.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
We'd probably wish him a happy International Cake Day. But
we can't. And it's not a birthday cake. Sorry, buddy
cake National, I mean International Cake Day. And who doesn't
love k. Today's also National Jukebox Day, which is perfect
timing for Foreigner to be playing in the Thanksgiving the
(03:10):
Macy's Parade in New York City tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And it's Drinksgiving, I think, which just means you go
and have drinks before Thanksgiving. It could So what explained
with this to me? What is Goodbye Cream Day?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
What is that? Goodbye?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
What it says on the calendar here, it's good Bye
Cream Day? Goodbye Cream Day marks the date November twenty sixth,
nineteen sixty eight, when the legendary rock band Cream played
their final concert at Royal Albert Harvard, London.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Figured that one out. It's on the list. Yeah, Cream
the band. It just doesn't pop up into buy a
radar much because I never really paid attention to them.
Wait was that before my time? Was that Eric Clapton?
Or was is that? Okay?
Speaker 2 (03:50):

(05:02):
I'll have a word with this totally our radio station.
Nobody cared about him then maybe.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Dropped a hammer. Well I'm oh, I'm known for dropping
the hammer. I don't think that means what you think
it means anymore. Yeah, that's means something in mister Kenneth's neighborhood. Anyway. Today,
in history, it's.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Time on this day in seventeen eighty nine, is declared
by JORGEY Washington on October third, Today was Thanksgiving Day
in America.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Today. Yeah, it was on a Wednesday. That's what it
says here, seventeen eighty nine. Today was supposed to be
the first one. Today. In seventeen ninety one, Washington holds
the first Cabinet meeting at his home in Philly, and
immediately somebody drove by and started shooting guns and us.
We got to get out of this town. So there's
way too much to head for the West coast. I
mean they left Philly and headed west. I think that's
(05:44):
a different story, but that's a good one too. Today,
in eighteen thirty two, the first horse drawn street cars
running on rails started carrying people around New York City.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah. Today, in nineteen excuse me. Today, in eighteen forty two,
the University of Notre Dame was founded. Later on, they
decided to pronounce it Notre Dame. Yeah, it makes more
sense today. In eighteen ninety six, Amos Stagg of the
University of Chicago created the huddle for football games.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Who knew? Is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, Amos Stag. Yeah, that's why they call it a
stag circle. Sorry, no, they don't.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Today.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
In nineteen forty two, Casablanca, some considered to be America's
greatest film, premier to New York City. It was on Thanksgiving.
People went to see that film on Thanksgiving. They enjoyed
their sour patch kids and their red Bull diet red
Bull Today. In nineteen forty nine, India became the sovereign
Democratic Republic.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
So good for you, India. Yeah, give it up today.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
In nineteen fifty six, The Price Is Right game show
debuted on NBC, hosted by game show legend Bill Cullen.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Who the f is Bill Cullen? Nobody's ever heard of
that guy. I think they mean Bob Barker. Today.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
In nineteen fifty seven, twenty two months into his second term,
President Eisenhower suffered a stroke. He was hospitalized for three
weeks and he's still and he's turned out. Fine, he's
still alive. Today.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Today, in nineteen sixty three, Rogers stopped Staubuck has awarded
the Heisman Trophy. It actually says triphy here he got
a Heisman triphy. It almost sounded like you'd never heard
his name before and didn't know how to pronounce it.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I know all about it, but everything's spelled wrong on this.
So I just thought i'd Roger Staboch. Yeah, there you go.
He was a softball player. Today, in nineteen sixty nine,
Nixon signs the legislation making the draft lottery for men
into a thing. Thanks a lot, Dick Nixon. Ooh, Today
in nineteen seventy six, this is a good one, kind
of it wasn't the beginning of punk rock, because I
(07:31):
give that to the I really give credit to that
to the Ramones. But on this day, in nineteen seventy six,
wrong song, the Sex Pistols released their first single.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Anarchy in the UK. It still holds up in my opinion.
Oh of course, yeah, it's strong cow stuff. Yeah. And today,
in nineteen seventy nine, Venezuela well as oil was discovered
to be larger than opex. A turn up country into
an amazing place. I mean they were they had and
it was very sophisticated and advanced, and so they thought, well,
(08:05):
we're doing so well, why don't we put I know,
let's put a communist in charge. And look at that today,
that's just about the biggest hell hole on the planet.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I would rather live in a nation englfed in anarchy
than live in a communist country.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
All right, I'm gonna move you over to Haiti. See
how you enjoy that. Yeah, I'm better than Venezuela. Well
actually no, no, I wonder okay, maybe not today. Actually
the people from Haiti went to Venezuela. That's where it
gets competence. So that's kind of mixed up.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Today, in eighteen ninety one, New York City starts handing
out thousands of condoms to high school kids. Today in
nineteen ninety one, wonder what they did with them. I
think they used them to make balloon animals. And today,
in two thousand, George w is certified the winner of
fida's electoral votes and the two thousand presidential election.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Back in this still continued to go on. They still
went back and forth on it. Yeah, why can't democrats
accept election results? I just I don't understand back then,
and it was considered a swing state. You got any
you want to shove it ring in the States? No,
I I was just waiting for you to finish because
I have celebrity updates for you. Do tell first of all,
(09:10):
the CMA Awards this past Wednesday. I kept telling you
how sick and day I'm tired. I was hearing about
them being promoted, and I'm glad they were over Sam.
It looked like the rest of the general public kind
of feels the same way as I do. The CMA
Awards lowest ratings at six million viewers. That happens every year.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Every year they go this award shows, the lowest ratings
ever because nobody cares about award shows anymore.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Over the last ten years, the cmas have gone from
sixteen million down to six million this year.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
At what point will major TV networks just decide, you know,
what's bad for ratings.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
And there's not going to carry these award shows. Why
don't they just stream them on Ulu or something?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
You know, once upon a time, I mean during our
our younger listeners remember this, but there was a time
when you didn't have twenty four hour access to celebrities
on social media. So an award show is interesting. Look
at you, it's a famous person I never get to
see outside of the TV movie or acting or being
a character.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
There's being themselves. But now who cares?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
You could see every celebrity anytime you want, and you
don't even want to see them. So what's the point
of the award show? It doesn't give you access to anything.
It's not interesting. No, it's just rich, famous people patting
themselves on the back for having better lives than us.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Also a SAT update from the Miss Universe contest. Doctor
Gabrielle Henry has been crowned Miss Universe Jamaica for twenty
twenty five. It was their second go and this time
she won. She won the title at an event I
guess last week at Saint Andrew. However, Gabrielle is currently
(10:54):
lying in a hospital bit in intensive care after falling
either on stage or falling from the stage. I haven't
yet figured that one out. She fell while she was
doing the evening Gown performance, walking those high heels and
it's so bad. She's how bad was recovering in intensive
(11:17):
care well? They say she will spend at least a
week monitoring her medical condition. That sounds terrible. That sounds terrible.
Sounds like somebody gave her something that gave her the runs.
What it sounds like she just trying to hide it.
Maybe she has like a gluten intolerance and she had
too much beer. Girls don't like to talk about the
runs much. You know, it's like it's unladylike or something.
(11:40):
I don't know that's true. That's really sad. Well, anyway,
here's the east Side Holiday.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Hotline or a lafe. Thank you for calling the east
Side Holiday Highline. I'm a little puppy. How would you
like me to stuff your bird today? Okay, right now,
I'm going to teach you the proper method to marinate
it your turkey proper homes. Basically, it's all about the
liquor you use. My personal favorites include Old English eight
(12:06):
hundred mickeys, or perhaps a nice forty ounce of steel reserve,
you know, if you're filling off classy. And for this recipe,
I have selected a nice two thousand and four bottle
of Old English ninety nine cents special at the liquor
store on the corner. A little pricey, but it is
the holiday seasons Okay, first, open the bottle, pour a
(12:28):
little loud for the homeboys that are no longer with us.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
I miss you, Spider.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Okay, Now take a swig to make sure it tastes. Okay,
that's a great year, homes Then check it out. You
want to pour a little bit on your turkey. Okay,
they don't take it all. I gotta have some two now,
a little more for me to give me in the
cooking spirit.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Oh that's some good shit.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
I'm starting to get a little buzz, you know what, Bertie,
you're starting to look kind of nice. Come over here, girl,
let me hold you for a minute. Looking on hot
and greasy like that. You're just ready to be cooked
or what. Well, this Futo has a special recipe. You're
gonna love Camier. Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about, girl, totally.
Thank you for calling. But the highline is now officially
(13:23):
closed for the next fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Hark the Hair Turkey saying Gabbo Gabbo, Gabbo, Gobbo, Gabbo
Gabbo Gabbo.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Wilson and Johnson Radio Network. I think I think one
of the reasons why this radio show is popular and
why it works is because unlike a lot of the
so called right wing talk show hosts, we're not pretending
to be good people.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that, you know,
I'm not a sinner, a scumbager, a degenerate.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I'm all those things, and.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
I tell you wouldn't tell you I would, and I
don't pretend to not be and I'm there are people
on the radio right now probably cheat on their wives
with three different people in a cocaine addiction, and I
just look, I wear all your kinks and your bad
habits on your sleeve. That's what I've always said. Don't
pretend to be something you're not. And so if you're
tuning into this show to look for a role model
(14:13):
or a moral compass or something like that, you've come
to the wrong place. It's not at all who we are.
We're not trying to be. I would not play poker
with me, you know what I mean? Yeah, if I
was you, I would not trust me with your wallet,
is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
You know you don't know, absolutely you shouldn't.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Anyway, now that we've established that people are pretty upset
that a Hawaiian tourist pick up us, he picked up
a sea turtle.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Oh god, he's already violated terrible law. I mean, it's
a law, and he violated it terribly.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I don't think he knew that. We've got a video
of it. Let me put it up on the screen here,
so you and the we.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Picked it up, like to see if he could because
they're heavy, or was he planning on taking it back
to his room.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
We're live streaming on social media for those of you
that care to watch this. It looks like he's taking
a photo with it, would be my guess.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Hang on a second, here, Yeah, there it is. We've
got it. Oh yeah, he's posing with the turtle. That'll
put you in jail. You can see the man propping
the turtle up so he can take a picture with it.
Hawaiian green sea turtles are protected under both state law
and the federal and dangerous suppose. Oh my god, look
that is disgusting.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Would you just look at how just just look at
how disgusting that is.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Look at his the woman with him, Yeah, yeah, don't
be out of shape, gross, she's a dumpling. Minute my god,
hit the gym lady. But yeah, you're not supposed to
mess with the turtles. Even if you're underwater with the turtles,
don't touch them, touch them all right? Riddle?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Mean this batman in there thing that sometimes people get
sexually assaulted by a dolphin.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Well, it could could be a thing. You know, they
all bottle nose dolphins after all.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
What do you do if you're just swimming along, minding
your own business, and you're on vacation in Hawaii, your
coast Rica or whatever, the one comes a sea turtle
and it smells you and it thinks your wife's nether
regions are baits or.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
So you've got to do what you can to protect
your wife from the turtle assault.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
What if the turtle's nudge and his a little head
up there between your wife's legs and getting into men
You're like, hey, you know, well.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
That's what I'm asking. He's like, aren't you allowed to
defend yourself?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
You know?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I get it's an endangered species, but I'm getting unwanted
attention from the sea turtle here.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Normally you roll them on their back, but I don't
know if it works on the water. I don't think
it's gonna work on the one. Here's my other question too.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Everybody has to have a paper straw now, because the
sea turtles might die if one of these plastic straws.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Could you know statistically how unlikely that is? That is?
They say it happened once. I'm pretty sure that was
somebody stuck a straw up a turtle's nose, took a
picture and then send it into Greta Thunberg or somebody
and said, hey, we got to put a stop to this.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Okay, I have gret news and I want to talk
about that book. God before we get to her. Maybe
if a plastic straw can kill you, it's because you're
supposed to die.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
I'm just saying, all right.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Former Person of the Year climate activist Greta Thunburg has
been banned from Italy, and rightfully so. She's not allowed
in Italy anymore after she apparently filled Italy's the Italian
city of Venice's Grand Canal with green food coloring and
it died to.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Show you how terrible the earth is to you know,
to the environment.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Funburg, the twenty two year old autistic girl, joined environmental
group Extinction Rebellion over the weekend when they poured dye
into the iconic water corridors that outline the historic city
of Venice, and so the dye, which is a non
toxic tracer often used in environmental studies, transformed the waters
of the Grand Canal into a bright green color, very
(17:53):
common in Chicago. Every year, we would dye the Chicago
River green and then it would stay that way the
rest year because it's just dirty.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
The group, in an effort to.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Highlight the massive effects of climate change, hung a banner
that read stop Eco side from the rialto bridge and
then sent protesters dressed in red veils. Red veils, that's
what they're supposed to do to Trump. Why were they
wearing red veils that?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
It makes no sense. They're all over the road with
their messaging.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I thought they dressed like that to make some point
about women's rights. What's this guy to do with the
right being ecological? It's probably just what the head available. Anyway,
The group, in an effort to oh, okay, we already
explain that. So she not allowed into Italy anymore? Is
that forever and ever or just like for the rest
of the week. If you were Italy, would you want
her coming back?
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Of course not. I think it's you know how the
Italians are, well, you know better than most. I think
it's temporary, but yeah, you're right. Italians are famously quitters.
I mean, look at World War Two.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
If Hitler had aligned himself with I don't know, some
other country that you know, didn't give up so easily,
would we all be speaking German right now?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yah? I think you're doing a Swedish accent. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Yeah, oh there you go, that said Billy. That's nothing
like a good job, Bill. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. Washington,
d C's Mayor Muriel Bowser is not returning. She's had
enough with being the mayor of the city. After four terms.
She said she has done. She won't run for a
fourth term after three terms. She said, Oh, Trump's going
to miss her. He said they worked well together. Did
(19:23):
you know yesterday on this news, on this radio show,
we missed the fact that we broke a story.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
What do you mean? We were interviewing Mayor John Whitmyer
of Houston, and he mentioned he used the word eight
years to describe his tenure as mayor of Houston and
he's only been a mayor two years. He's only in
his first term. Yeah, did he unintentionally announce he's going
to run again?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
On this radio show, and then we broke it and
we didn't even we weren't even paying attention.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Can we fix it? Well, I think we just did.
Didn't break it as in break the news.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Yeah, you know, I assumed he knew, And then when
he said that, I thought he just meant can we
fix it with t tell in the audience?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
But oh okay, so we had breaking news? Is what
you're meant to say?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Sometimes I think you're messing with me, like you do
know what we're talking about, and you pretending not nothing.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Then you look in his eyes and your realize, yees,
i' got a clue. Man, I'm calling the east Side
Holiday hoigh Line again, oraly.
