What year was it supposed to be in Little House
on the Prairie? Was it? I never watched it, ilways
thought it was supposed to be a really long time ago.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But it's actually not, is it.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It was like in the eighteen hundreds, like in the
Old West setting kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Oh, I guess I was confused because didn't they have
an episode once where the Harlem Globetrotters show up?
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Well?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Sure, yeah, and then the people from Little House on
the Prairie were stranded on Gilligan's Island for a while too.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
They did a crossover episode. That's pretty cool. TV was
so much more interesting back in the day.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Good wouldn't be cool if the guys from Landman showed
up on the set of Tulsa King and they had
a drinking game or contester.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
All right, so today is Tulsa's not that far from Midland.
It could work. It could work.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
They had to dispose of a body or something. They
could all meet together in Fort Worth. They go there
pretty regular. Now you're talking, that'd be. Let's make it happen,
all right, It's National Cookie Day. It's Cabernet franc Day.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Cab fronc. What wine did we have last night? We
had a lovely zin.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I guess I don't know as much about wine as
I thought it was because I always thought Zinfidel was
supposed to be sweet and pink and was it.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
No, it's dry and red. It was a good wine. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
I didn't mean a gay up the show. But it's
Cabernet Frank Day, so I had to throw job. Celebrate
Shelter Dogs Day. It's also celebrate Shelter Cat's Day. But
we don't celebrate cat shelter dogs for sure, though. Can
we brag on that.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
For a minute'll get you a sheltered dog before Christmas?
That that'd be. It'd be a thing to do.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
It's a good idea for a Christmas gift, especially if
your family needs a little more love in your home.
But you want an amazing Christmas gift, but you don't
want to spend thousands of dollars, But you do want
to teach the young people and your family some responsibility.
You know, if that dog dies, I don't even think
you get into trouble for that. You know, it's not
like a human or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Sure, we're getting a dog, you know, anticipating it this.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I just wanted to see how you react to that.
I don't keep the dog alive, obviously. Now we're big
fans of shelter dogs. In fact, on this radio show,
we have a history of doing some work with one
of the best animal shelters in America. But not everybody
lives in our city. If you're from Southeast Texas, check
out Citizens for Animal Protection. It's an amazing place there.
You go caps it's called But every city Memphis, New
(05:42):
Orleans Mobile, whether you're in Oklahoma or Florida or Louisiana,
wherever you may be Georgia, find that local animal shelter,
give a home to a dog.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I call them rescue dogs sometimes and a rescue dog
still needs to be rescued because it's at the shelter.
But that's not you know, where it needs to be.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Sometimes when you're a lonely person, the rescue dog rescues you.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
That's right, Bam, Mike Drop, you want to tell us
more about that situation about a dogger? Your personal you know, testify,
tell us your personal story.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
I actually have a well, Milton's not a rescue I know.
Is that what you're trying to.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Do on this day in history?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Brought to you by law Tigers. You know the number,
one eight hundred law Tigers call it today, one eight
hundred law Tigers. Go to law tigers dot com. It's
very cool today.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
In seventeen eighty three, Washington bids farewell to his officers
at Francis Tava, New York City.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Did he say actually farewell ahead of his say adiosa migos.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Did he say aste la vista? How did he put it?
Isn't that interesting to think?
Speaker 3 (06:44):
He resigned his He left office. He didn't even make
it to the eighteen hundreds. He was done by seventeen
eighty three. He was retired, never.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Had kids, apparently being the president, even being the first
one was a pain in the asked.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
George Washington and Russell and baw two the greatest Americas
who ever lived.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Neither of them had children. It does kind of give
me help.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Today, in eighteen sixteen, James Monroe elected the fifth President
of the United States. Today, in eighteen forty four, the
always electric James K. Polk is elected President number eleven.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
James K.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Polk was a wild man. He was a disco dancing
poon tang slaying. The guy was snorting cocaine, partying all night,
going down to Miami, hitting up the samba clubs.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
He was a wild dude. They named that polk salad
after him, right, that's right, polk salad.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
They named the polke after him, I think today, in
eighteen eighty one, the very first edition of the Los
Angeles Times published.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Back then it was a right wing rural news outlet.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Now, back in eighteen twenty nine, the British Empire go
ahead and they put a put a stop to that
Indian practice of sutti. That's where the wife of a
man who had just died, the widow would throw herself
on the funeral pile and burn herself to death when
(07:58):
her husband was body was being burned because you know,
without a husband.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Really, what good was she? Uh?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
And the British finally said, nuh. You know, maybe there's
another man somewhere that could you know, benefit from her existence.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Stupid British people. I swear all right.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
I never understood why we call it the National Hockey
League because a lot of the teams are in Canada.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's not national. It's clearly international.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
And today, in nineteen oh nine, the oldest hockey club
in the league was formed, called the Montreal Canadians have
existed for over a century.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Isn't that something?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Today, in nineteen twenty, the first pro football game has
Buffalo beating Canton seven to three at the Polo Canton.
Buffalo beat Canton seven to three at the Polo Grounds
in New York City. Today, in nineteen twenty, the first
ever football game American football where people were played to
perform what was the quarterbacks passer rating at that time?
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I don't think they did statistics back then. They didn't.
They also didn't do passes. Yeah, is that how? What
didn't they do? You could backwards? What was it?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
You could throw it to the person behind lateral latter.
That's the word I'm looking. Rather, the fullwood pass wasn't
invented yet. Yeah, that came later on today. In nineteen thirty,
the Vatican approved the rhythm method for birth control for Catholics.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
You gotta have some rhythm, baby gonna bring it, you
gotta bring it.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
And that interesting the rhythm method today. And I don't ask, no,
do not talk about it on the radio because it
involves the moon today in ninety thank you, just lunacy.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That's lunacy. That's right. You didn't even know what an
advent calendar was. Today.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
In nineteen fifty four, the very first Burger King restaurant
opened in Miami, Florida. So that's the thing, okay. Today,
in nineteen sixty seven, Elvis, Jerry, Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins,
Billy d and Johnny Cash jammed together at Sun Studios.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
It was called the Million Dollar Quartet. I have it
in fifty six, but yeah, it was close.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Mine says sixty seven. Your says fifty six? Does that
make sense?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Fifty?
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Does your say sixty seven years ago? Today in nineteen
sixty seven, what is your says?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Fifty six?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I think mine's right does it mean fifty six years ago? No,
sixty nine years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Nice, you're here, mathey student.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
The jam session seems to have happened by pure chance.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah. They were all just kind of hanging around the
studio at the same time, and they said, let's fall
in on that. Elvis Perkins came in. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Perkins came into the studio that day to cut some stuff.
Sam Phillips, the owner of some records that brought his
latest acquisition, Jerry Lee Lewis in twenty one year old
Elvis Presley was there. I think it was the fifties,
a former son artist now at RCA.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I just looked it up in a separate look at
fifty six.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Johnny Cash happened to pop in. They were all there
at the time.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Let go young, there's a picture, dude, I'm looking at
that on the screen.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Table had cameras in fifties. The woman was edited out
of the photo. I'm looking at how many Who is she?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
How many of them do you think took a turn
with that girl when the jam session was over?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Not Jerry Lee Lewis. She wasn't his cousin. Oh that's nice.
I like that. Well, I didn't make him into incest.
That's not my don't get mad on this day in history,
which is what we were doing. Roger Staubach got the
Heisman Award on this date back in nineteen and sixty three.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Then were better years, buddy. They were fast forwarding a little.
In nineteen eighty, Led Zeppelin disbands two months after drummer
John Bonham's death.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah, they couldn't go on, but they heard him play
the drums with for sticks.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Dude, He's amazing. He's one of my favorite.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
It's a song actually called for Sticks. He had drum
he had four drumsticks in two hands and he played
a song on it.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
There is a famous story about the recording engineer that
was famous for recording the Led Zeppelin being asked to
recreate John Bonham's drum sounds for other bands. I forgot
who the band was, a band you would have heard of,
came in in the he was like, hey man, I
want to make my drums sound like John Bonham's drums.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
And what they I think it was the Eagles? What
they tell them?
Speaker 3 (11:47):
And the engineer says, well, then hit the drums harder,
just to hit it harder.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
What do you think He's like, that's what John Bonhams
sounded like.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
That was part of that Eagles documentary. Yeah, we're talking
about today.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
In nineteen eighty eight, Gary Busey wrecked his motor cycle
head open and it injured himself pretty badly, and somehow
and somehow still had a career. He just kind of
shifted the kind of roles he was picked up for.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It didn't really I mean, losing a you know, some
of his brain matter didn't really affect his personality that much.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Today was already a little you know, but he wasn't
as handsome after that.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Today, in nineteen ninety one, hostage Terry Anderson is freed
in Lebanon.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Do you guys remember I remember Lebanon? All right, here's
one today.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
In nineteen ninety two, President Bush orders the US troops
to go to Somalia.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
And what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
A whole bunch of Somalian refugees ended up coming to
our country. Fast forward a little bit, fairly fast forward
a little bit Iraq, War in Iraq, What happened all
the Iraqis came here? What happened? War in Afghanistan? Fast forward,
warre in Venezuela. But this time, it's going to make
less Venezuelan migrants.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Right, how's that work?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Exactly today, in nineteen ninety seven, the NBA suspends Lateral
sproule fe.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
I don't know who that is. Who is he?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
What you're with nineteen ninety seven. If you're a grown
up adult, you never heard anybody say the name in
the news. First of all, he choked, was it his coach?
He attacked his coach, PJ carl Carlismo. I was, I
was fourteen, and I was not an NBA fan. By
the night, trail s pretty well trout lateral. It's as trail,
(13:19):
I don't think so. Trail spree.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Well, that's not how i'd pronounce that.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
By the way, this day in history, one year ago
this morning, that a guy named Luigi Mangione.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Oh we got to talk about that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Uh stalked, attacked and shot in the back end, murdered
the CEO of United Healthcare.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
One year ago. Today.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
He's in court today. I think it's day three of
some pre trial court maneuvering. What he'd like to do
is have the judge or whoever rule that all that
evidence that makes it look like he did it, they
should not use any of that. All right, Yeah, well
(14:04):
that all makes me look like I killed him, So
I'd like it if they wouldn't use any of that evidence.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
We got to dive into the Luigi Mangioni thing. Coming up,
let's wrap up this day in history today. In twenty seventeen,
the Supreme Court allowed Trump's travel band to remain in effect.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
I should have wrapped it up a while ago.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
I'm trying to, but you keep telling us about stuff
that are not about today in history.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
No, Luisia Mangioni was about this day in history. It
was one year ago today on this day in history,
and that's the final this day in history because it
was just last year and now we have to.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Take a break.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
You don't want to include the thing where the worst
day in women's basketball ever. No, today in twenty twenty three,
a white woman record setting triple double twenty two points,
tennis sist, ten rebounds.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Caitlin Clark ruined, it is racist. No, you shouldn't be
including that. I know I feel bad about bringing up
a white woman. I don't think you do. Coming up,
Luigi mangione, I hate the Beagles, Man.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Walton and Johnson phenomena all right, normenomena.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You ready to just wade right into the middle of Luigi.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Okay, So, as you pointed out, and I you know,
I was a little rude to you. You made a
good point. It has been one year since Luigi became
the I guess, the poster boy for all for like
frothing at the mouth communist cat ladies everywhere.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
But it's just crazy, and there's still people out there
that just they just love this guy. Oh they want
him to Can I introduce you to my daughters? Oh? Yeah, yeah?
You want to kill her in the family? Sure? Why not?
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Gentlemen? I want to make something clear here. I'm not
trying to tell you how to screen women. But there's
one thing I know for sure. If you go on
a date with a woman you just met, however you
met her friend, introduced, you met her at work, school,
dating app, online, Instagram, whatever it may be, if she
tells you she is physically attracted to Luigi Mangione, you
run in the other direction as fast as you can.
(15:50):
Anybody that thinks it's okay to murder somebody because they
work at a because they're following the rules of how
corporate the government dictated healthcare is not somebody you want
to share your life with.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
That is an insane position to take.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
If you are with somebody that is glorifying murder because
they don't like the healthcare laws that were probably created
by their political party. Assuming right, that's not a person
you need to be around.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And it's amazing what has been happening in court as
the maneuver to try to have some evidence, you know,
thrown out before the official trial starts. Besides the gun
and all the other things they found in the backpack
and the backpack itself, and the notes that are in
the backpack and all the plans that he made that
was all written out, there's also that nine to one
(16:39):
to one call that was played in open court I
think yesterday because he went to McDonald's afterwards. He was
arrested at that McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania. This was five
days after the shooting, and somebody called nine one one
and they said, we have a customer here that some
(16:59):
of the the customers are suspicious of and that he
looks a lot like the guy in the news that
shot the CEO in New York m that came in
on the nine eleven nine one one call you ever
call it nine to eleven?
Speaker 4 (17:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I never did. No, what's weird is I don't know
if you remember this, but.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
At nine to eleven, I'd think of the September two
thousand and one tragedy.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
And even before that happened, when they first came out
with nine eleven asgency numbers, people actually complained and they
had to change it because they couldn't find the eleven
on their phone. Maybe real true, No, you're right, maybe
we should change it. But maybe also if you're too
(17:41):
retarded to figure that out, you deserve to die, maybe,
you know. Yeah, anyway, So the recording was played during
the testimony the nine one one coordinator, and she off
ended the video. Prosecutors played it for the judgeccrding to
the manager. An older female customer was very upset and
frantic after seeing him eating breakfast in the back in
the the McDonald's little little danning room area there because
(18:03):
his eyebrows were that recognizable and he was obviously trying
to be non discreet while she, you know, she was
scoping him out. He was trying to like kip his
head down, looking away, and she said, I can't approach him,
but he shot the CEO. They and the dispatcher responded.
(18:26):
At the time, you.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Know, prosecutors called more than two dozen witnesses, and they're
trying to suggest some of this evidence should get thrown out.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
It's not going to him, nah, I wouldn't think so,
No one of the They want to exclude the gun
and like you said, notes that he had written to
himself while he was playing to do his dirty deed.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Imagine how sad empathetic these people are. There are people
outside the courthouse today, they're outside now and they're fans
of Luigi Mangione. Now, now flip the other side of this.
Imagine you got to pick the jury in a city
that just elected Zorhan mom Donnie to be mayor do
you have.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
That trial somewhere else? Well? Do it Houston, for example.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Would make a lot of sense to move it outside
of the Manhattan court system.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Maybe Altoona, Pennsylvania, where they arrested him about that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
I don't know why Tuna would be part of this.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, it's confusing, but imagine that half of the city
just voted to elect a Marxists. That means roughly every
other person that's possibly showing up.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
To jury duty, they vote.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Theoretically, that's how they got is probably somebody that thinks
luigim Andngione should walk even though he pretty clearly committed
a mass committed a serious murder. Yeah, and unprovoked. What
because you don't like the healthcare laws? The United Healthcare
CEO didn't create the laws. The laws were created by
Barack Obama. And believe me, I'm not suggesting you should
(19:46):
murder Barack Obama. But any kind of weird how you're
mad at this guy for following the rules that were
created by the guy you elected.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I mean, it's something that just shows you how stupid
people are. People's ignorant, They just are They just ignorant.
Do you remember the swimming art of the game.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
The Luigi ANGIONI, oh Luigi? Because of uh, what is
that atari or something? Natario? What are you Tatariver?
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I'm not. I don't do that.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
You lived through it, you were that, you play it.
I don't involve myself in it. It's kind of like
telling me who's the greatest harmonica player or banjo player
or Steve Martian player.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Because no, I don't get into that either. And and
by the way, Steve Martin's good, but he ain't no
Jaalin Craltland. All right.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
The greatest harmonica player was Little Walter, considered the the
king of blues harmonica.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Pretty good, but was he the best?
Speaker 3 (20:43):
The best accordion player, I'm sure we all agree, was
Esteban Jordan.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Well that's really obvious.
Speaker 3 (20:49):

Remember candy Man, Right, everybody's seen the No not supposed
to say it three times. You're not supposed to say

Just black beetlejuice. Also Gary Rossington, the last remaining original

our celebrity birthday list.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
What year was it supposed to be in Little House
on the Prairie? Was it? I never watched it, ilways
thought it was supposed to be a really long time ago.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But it's actually not, is it.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It was like in the eighteen hundreds, like in the
Old West setting kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Oh, I guess I was confused because didn't they have
an episode once where the Harlem Globetrotters show up?
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Well?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Sure, yeah, and then the people from Little House on
the Prairie were stranded on Gilligan's Island for a while too.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
They did a crossover episode. That's pretty cool. TV was
so much more interesting back in the day.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Good wouldn't be cool if the guys from Landman showed
up on the set of Tulsa King and they had
a drinking game or contester.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
All right, so today is Tulsa's not that far from Midland.
It could work. It could work.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
They had to dispose of a body or something. They
could all meet together in Fort Worth. They go there
pretty regular. Now you're talking, that'd be. Let's make it happen,
all right, It's National Cookie Day. It's Cabernet franc Day.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Cab fronc. What wine did we have last night? We
had a lovely zin.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I guess I don't know as much about wine as
I thought it was because I always thought Zinfidel was
supposed to be sweet and pink and was it.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
No, it's dry and red. It was a good wine. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
I didn't mean a gay up the show. But it's
Cabernet Frank Day, so I had to throw job. Celebrate
Shelter Dogs Day. It's also celebrate Shelter Cat's Day. But
we don't celebrate cat shelter dogs for sure, though. Can
we brag on that.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
For a minute'll get you a sheltered dog before Christmas?
That that'd be. It'd be a thing to do.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
It's a good idea for a Christmas gift, especially if
your family needs a little more love in your home.
But you want an amazing Christmas gift, but you don't
want to spend thousands of dollars, But you do want
to teach the young people and your family some responsibility.
You know, if that dog dies, I don't even think
you get into trouble for that. You know, it's not
like a human or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Sure, we're getting a dog, you know, anticipating it this.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I just wanted to see how you react to that.
I don't keep the dog alive, obviously. Now we're big
fans of shelter dogs. In fact, on this radio show,
we have a history of doing some work with one
of the best animal shelters in America. But not everybody
lives in our city. If you're from Southeast Texas, check
out Citizens for Animal Protection. It's an amazing place there.
You go caps it's called But every city Memphis, New
(05:42):
Orleans Mobile, whether you're in Oklahoma or Florida or Louisiana,
wherever you may be Georgia, find that local animal shelter,
give a home to a dog.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I call them rescue dogs sometimes and a rescue dog
still needs to be rescued because it's at the shelter.
But that's not you know, where it needs to be.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Sometimes when you're a lonely person, the rescue dog rescues you.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
That's right, Bam, Mike Drop, you want to tell us
more about that situation about a dogger? Your personal you know, testify,
tell us your personal story.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
I actually have a well, Milton's not a rescue I know.
Is that what you're trying to.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Do on this day in history?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Brought to you by law Tigers. You know the number,
one eight hundred law Tigers call it today, one eight
hundred law Tigers. Go to law tigers dot com. It's
very cool today.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
In seventeen eighty three, Washington bids farewell to his officers
at Francis Tava, New York City.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Did he say actually farewell ahead of his say adiosa migos.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Did he say aste la vista? How did he put it?
Isn't that interesting to think?
Speaker 3 (06:44):
He resigned his He left office. He didn't even make
it to the eighteen hundreds. He was done by seventeen
eighty three. He was retired, never.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Had kids, apparently being the president, even being the first
one was a pain in the asked.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
George Washington and Russell and baw two the greatest Americas
who ever lived.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Neither of them had children. It does kind of give
me help.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Today, in eighteen sixteen, James Monroe elected the fifth President
of the United States. Today, in eighteen forty four, the
always electric James K. Polk is elected President number eleven.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
James K.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Polk was a wild man. He was a disco dancing
poon tang slaying. The guy was snorting cocaine, partying all night,
going down to Miami, hitting up the samba clubs.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
He was a wild dude. They named that polk salad
after him, right, that's right, polk salad.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
They named the polke after him, I think today, in
eighteen eighty one, the very first edition of the Los
Angeles Times published.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Back then it was a right wing rural news outlet.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Now, back in eighteen twenty nine, the British Empire go
ahead and they put a put a stop to that
Indian practice of sutti. That's where the wife of a
man who had just died, the widow would throw herself
on the funeral pile and burn herself to death when
(07:58):
her husband was body was being burned because you know,
without a husband.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Really, what good was she? Uh?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
And the British finally said, nuh. You know, maybe there's
another man somewhere that could you know, benefit from her existence.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Stupid British people. I swear all right.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
I never understood why we call it the National Hockey
League because a lot of the teams are in Canada.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's not national. It's clearly international.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
And today, in nineteen oh nine, the oldest hockey club
in the league was formed, called the Montreal Canadians have
existed for over a century.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Isn't that something?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Today, in nineteen twenty, the first pro football game has
Buffalo beating Canton seven to three at the Polo Canton.
Buffalo beat Canton seven to three at the Polo Grounds
in New York City. Today, in nineteen twenty, the first
ever football game American football where people were played to
perform what was the quarterbacks passer rating at that time?
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I don't think they did statistics back then. They didn't.
They also didn't do passes. Yeah, is that how? What
didn't they do? You could backwards? What was it?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
You could throw it to the person behind lateral latter.
That's the word I'm looking. Rather, the fullwood pass wasn't
invented yet. Yeah, that came later on today. In nineteen thirty,
the Vatican approved the rhythm method for birth control for Catholics.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
You gotta have some rhythm, baby gonna bring it, you
gotta bring it.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
And that interesting the rhythm method today. And I don't ask, no,
do not talk about it on the radio because it
involves the moon today in ninety thank you, just lunacy.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That's lunacy. That's right. You didn't even know what an
advent calendar was. Today.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
In nineteen fifty four, the very first Burger King restaurant
opened in Miami, Florida. So that's the thing, okay. Today,
in nineteen sixty seven, Elvis, Jerry, Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins,
Billy d and Johnny Cash jammed together at Sun Studios.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
It was called the Million Dollar Quartet. I have it
in fifty six, but yeah, it was close.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Mine says sixty seven. Your says fifty six? Does that
make sense?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Fifty?
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Does your say sixty seven years ago? Today in nineteen
sixty seven, what is your says?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Fifty six?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I think mine's right does it mean fifty six years ago? No,
sixty nine years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Nice, you're here, mathey student.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
The jam session seems to have happened by pure chance.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah. They were all just kind of hanging around the
studio at the same time, and they said, let's fall
in on that. Elvis Perkins came in. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Perkins came into the studio that day to cut some stuff.
Sam Phillips, the owner of some records that brought his
latest acquisition, Jerry Lee Lewis in twenty one year old
Elvis Presley was there. I think it was the fifties,
a former son artist now at RCA.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I just looked it up in a separate look at
fifty six.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Johnny Cash happened to pop in. They were all there
at the time.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Let go young, there's a picture, dude, I'm looking at
that on the screen.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Table had cameras in fifties. The woman was edited out
of the photo. I'm looking at how many Who is she?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
How many of them do you think took a turn
with that girl when the jam session was over?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Not Jerry Lee Lewis. She wasn't his cousin. Oh that's nice.
I like that. Well, I didn't make him into incest.
That's not my don't get mad on this day in history,
which is what we were doing. Roger Staubach got the
Heisman Award on this date back in nineteen and sixty three.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Then were better years, buddy. They were fast forwarding a little.
In nineteen eighty, Led Zeppelin disbands two months after drummer
John Bonham's death.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah, they couldn't go on, but they heard him play
the drums with for sticks.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Dude, He's amazing. He's one of my favorite.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
It's a song actually called for Sticks. He had drum
he had four drumsticks in two hands and he played
a song on it.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
There is a famous story about the recording engineer that
was famous for recording the Led Zeppelin being asked to
recreate John Bonham's drum sounds for other bands. I forgot
who the band was, a band you would have heard of,
came in in the he was like, hey man, I
want to make my drums sound like John Bonham's drums.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
And what they I think it was the Eagles? What
they tell them?
Speaker 3 (11:47):
And the engineer says, well, then hit the drums harder,
just to hit it harder.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
What do you think He's like, that's what John Bonhams
sounded like.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
That was part of that Eagles documentary. Yeah, we're talking
about today.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
In nineteen eighty eight, Gary Busey wrecked his motor cycle
head open and it injured himself pretty badly, and somehow
and somehow still had a career. He just kind of
shifted the kind of roles he was picked up for.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It didn't really I mean, losing a you know, some
of his brain matter didn't really affect his personality that much.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Today was already a little you know, but he wasn't
as handsome after that.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Today, in nineteen ninety one, hostage Terry Anderson is freed
in Lebanon.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Do you guys remember I remember Lebanon? All right, here's
one today.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
In nineteen ninety two, President Bush orders the US troops
to go to Somalia.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
And what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
A whole bunch of Somalian refugees ended up coming to
our country. Fast forward a little bit, fairly fast forward
a little bit Iraq, War in Iraq, What happened all
the Iraqis came here? What happened? War in Afghanistan? Fast forward,
warre in Venezuela. But this time, it's going to make
less Venezuelan migrants.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Right, how's that work?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Exactly today, in nineteen ninety seven, the NBA suspends Lateral
sproule fe.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
I don't know who that is. Who is he?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
What you're with nineteen ninety seven. If you're a grown
up adult, you never heard anybody say the name in
the news. First of all, he choked, was it his coach?
He attacked his coach, PJ carl Carlismo. I was, I
was fourteen, and I was not an NBA fan. By
the night, trail s pretty well trout lateral. It's as trail,
(13:19):
I don't think so. Trail spree.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Well, that's not how i'd pronounce that.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
By the way, this day in history, one year ago
this morning, that a guy named Luigi Mangione.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Oh we got to talk about that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Uh stalked, attacked and shot in the back end, murdered
the CEO of United Healthcare.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
One year ago. Today.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
He's in court today. I think it's day three of
some pre trial court maneuvering. What he'd like to do
is have the judge or whoever rule that all that
evidence that makes it look like he did it, they
should not use any of that. All right, Yeah, well
(14:04):
that all makes me look like I killed him, So
I'd like it if they wouldn't use any of that evidence.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
We got to dive into the Luigi Mangioni thing. Coming up,
let's wrap up this day in history today. In twenty seventeen,
the Supreme Court allowed Trump's travel band to remain in effect.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
I should have wrapped it up a while ago.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
I'm trying to, but you keep telling us about stuff
that are not about today in history.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
No, Luisia Mangioni was about this day in history. It
was one year ago today on this day in history,
and that's the final this day in history because it
was just last year and now we have to.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Take a break.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
You don't want to include the thing where the worst
day in women's basketball ever. No, today in twenty twenty three,
a white woman record setting triple double twenty two points,
tennis sist, ten rebounds.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Caitlin Clark ruined, it is racist. No, you shouldn't be
including that. I know I feel bad about bringing up
a white woman. I don't think you do. Coming up,
Luigi mangione, I hate the Beagles, Man.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Walton and Johnson phenomena all right, normenomena.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You ready to just wade right into the middle of Luigi.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Okay, So, as you pointed out, and I you know,
I was a little rude to you. You made a
good point. It has been one year since Luigi became
the I guess, the poster boy for all for like
frothing at the mouth communist cat ladies everywhere.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
But it's just crazy, and there's still people out there
that just they just love this guy. Oh they want
him to Can I introduce you to my daughters? Oh? Yeah, yeah?
You want to kill her in the family? Sure? Why not?
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Gentlemen? I want to make something clear here. I'm not
trying to tell you how to screen women. But there's
one thing I know for sure. If you go on
a date with a woman you just met, however you
met her friend, introduced, you met her at work, school,
dating app, online, Instagram, whatever it may be, if she
tells you she is physically attracted to Luigi Mangione, you
run in the other direction as fast as you can.
(15:50):
Anybody that thinks it's okay to murder somebody because they
work at a because they're following the rules of how
corporate the government dictated healthcare is not somebody you want
to share your life with.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
That is an insane position to take.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
If you are with somebody that is glorifying murder because
they don't like the healthcare laws that were probably created
by their political party. Assuming right, that's not a person
you need to be around.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And it's amazing what has been happening in court as
the maneuver to try to have some evidence, you know,
thrown out before the official trial starts. Besides the gun
and all the other things they found in the backpack
and the backpack itself, and the notes that are in
the backpack and all the plans that he made that
was all written out, there's also that nine to one
(16:39):
to one call that was played in open court I
think yesterday because he went to McDonald's afterwards. He was
arrested at that McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania. This was five
days after the shooting, and somebody called nine one one
and they said, we have a customer here that some
(16:59):
of the the customers are suspicious of and that he
looks a lot like the guy in the news that
shot the CEO in New York m that came in
on the nine eleven nine one one call you ever
call it nine to eleven?
Speaker 4 (17:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I never did. No, what's weird is I don't know
if you remember this, but.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
At nine to eleven, I'd think of the September two
thousand and one tragedy.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
And even before that happened, when they first came out
with nine eleven asgency numbers, people actually complained and they
had to change it because they couldn't find the eleven
on their phone. Maybe real true, No, you're right, maybe
we should change it. But maybe also if you're too
(17:41):
retarded to figure that out, you deserve to die, maybe,
you know. Yeah, anyway, So the recording was played during
the testimony the nine one one coordinator, and she off
ended the video. Prosecutors played it for the judgeccrding to
the manager. An older female customer was very upset and
frantic after seeing him eating breakfast in the back in
the the McDonald's little little danning room area there because
(18:03):
his eyebrows were that recognizable and he was obviously trying
to be non discreet while she, you know, she was
scoping him out. He was trying to like kip his
head down, looking away, and she said, I can't approach him,
but he shot the CEO. They and the dispatcher responded.
(18:26):
At the time, you.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Know, prosecutors called more than two dozen witnesses, and they're
trying to suggest some of this evidence should get thrown out.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
It's not going to him, nah, I wouldn't think so,
No one of the They want to exclude the gun
and like you said, notes that he had written to
himself while he was playing to do his dirty deed.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Imagine how sad empathetic these people are. There are people
outside the courthouse today, they're outside now and they're fans
of Luigi Mangione. Now, now flip the other side of this.
Imagine you got to pick the jury in a city
that just elected Zorhan mom Donnie to be mayor do
you have.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
That trial somewhere else? Well? Do it Houston, for example.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Would make a lot of sense to move it outside
of the Manhattan court system.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Maybe Altoona, Pennsylvania, where they arrested him about that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
I don't know why Tuna would be part of this.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, it's confusing, but imagine that half of the city
just voted to elect a Marxists. That means roughly every
other person that's possibly showing up.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
To jury duty, they vote.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Theoretically, that's how they got is probably somebody that thinks
luigim Andngione should walk even though he pretty clearly committed
a mass committed a serious murder. Yeah, and unprovoked. What
because you don't like the healthcare laws? The United Healthcare
CEO didn't create the laws. The laws were created by
Barack Obama. And believe me, I'm not suggesting you should
(19:46):
murder Barack Obama. But any kind of weird how you're
mad at this guy for following the rules that were
created by the guy you elected.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I mean, it's something that just shows you how stupid
people are. People's ignorant, They just are They just ignorant.
Do you remember the swimming art of the game.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
The Luigi ANGIONI, oh Luigi? Because of uh, what is
that atari or something? Natario? What are you Tatariver?
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I'm not. I don't do that.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
You lived through it, you were that, you play it.
I don't involve myself in it. It's kind of like
telling me who's the greatest harmonica player or banjo player
or Steve Martian player.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Because no, I don't get into that either. And and

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
