way to go. You'd watch them this day in history

continental telegraph line. Bye Bye Pony Express, Hello trans People.
Speaker 2 (05:06):

Speaker 1 (05:32):
So today, in nineteen oh one, the first barrel ride
over Niagara Falls, and yes, it was done by a
woman on purpose, Annie Edson Taylor. It was well, that's
how divorce worked back then. They tricked her into getting
into that barrel. Today, in nineteen sixteen, Henry Ford began
equal pay for women.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
That was a mistake.

on the dollar.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Ain't that the truth?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Today?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
In nineteen twenty nine, Black Thursday, mister Ow, oh, I
heard about it markets crash triggering the Great Depression.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Oh god, that was today.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
And of course I bring that up because mister Owe
is the financial whiz of our show. He always explains
the economy to us.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I don't want to be a whizz or a wizard.
I can be neither. One Grand Wizard of the Walton
Johnson Show. And today, in nineteen thirty one, the George
Washington Bridge was dedicated. It finished eight months ahead of schedule,
and it's the only time probably in an American history,
that a government project was completed on time.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Today, in nineteen thirty eighth, the Fair Labor Standards Act
established the forty hour work week. Same day, Henry Ford
did the thing with the women and today. In nineteen
forty five, the United Nations became a thing. The first
twenty nine member nations ratified their charter, and it was
mostly white countries.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Today.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
In two thousand and three, the Supersonic Concord made its
final commercial flight from New York City to Heathrow.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
I missed the concord and I never flew on it.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Mean neither, but I heard you could smoke on it. Really, yeah,
that would have been cool today in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
You don't smoke, but you would have taken it up though,
if you've got to file on the concord.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Okay, let's get real about cigarettes for a minute. Have
you ever noticed whenever somebody's got a cigarette in their hand,
they just look smarter than other people and.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Cooler and set to your Yeah, yeah, everything in your
life will be better if you just start smoking. I've
noticed when someone has a cigarette, just stop. If you
trick one person into starting smoking, then you've done terrible,
terrible things.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
When I see people smoking, Like if someone was a
six and they picked up a smoke boom instantly a nine,
oh hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And today.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
In two thousand and eight, Bloody Friday, the global stock
market experienced major declines.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Isn't that remarkable?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
All that financial stuff happened on the same day, Bloody Friday,
Fair Labor Standards Act, Black Thursday, Henry Ford's Equal Pay
for Women.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, but this is Friday, So I think you're off
a day. What do you mean you said it was
Black Thursday? Okay, so Billy would be yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
The way the calendar works is that the numbers fall
on different days every year, at the week different.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Are you sure about to I'm pretty sure? Yeah? Who
told you that?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Well? Did you every notice how yam Kipper and Dwalai
are on different every year?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
You ever noticed that? But sometimes on the same day?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah, exactly. I don't know if that's actually true or not. Boy,
I'd got to tell you. When you have Yam Kipper
and Dualai on the same day, that is a party.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
It is.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Other things that happened on this day in history, Civil
rights pioneer Rosa Parks died at the age of ninety
two twenty years ago, and we still miss her very
very much. You still miss her? Right? Who was the person?
You have to say? Yes?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Rosa Parks stole her idea from a different person. There
was a younger black girl, Claudette Colvin, was a fifteen
year old girl who refused to give up her seat
nine months earlier. The NAACP initially chose not to use
Calvin as the face of the movement because she felt
she was not an ideal symbol, whereas Rosa Parks was
seen as more of a suitable and respectable figure in
the community.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
But it also got posted on social media, so it's
like it never happened.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I know.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, they didn't have TikTok back then. That's a problem, Yeah, exactly.
And Rosa Park, you know, it was her inspiration. She
was aware of Calvin's situation. Historians know what the Parks
may have been inspired by Calvin, but they never gave
Calvin any credit. It all went to Rosa Parks. And
that's the rest of the story. Yeah, it's kind of
screwed up, huh it is. It's not cool stealing something
from black lady.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You go start to movement, now you go start to
clawed dip movement.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Why try to have a movement a few minutes ago?
But the cleaning Lady was in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Why don't you hate it when she does that? I
just locks the door. I cannot stand her.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
You know, with all the Halloween parties coming up, you
certainly wouldn't want to offend anyone with a costume this year,
would you. Guys?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Absolutely not?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Bill, Yet, you're not going to do that thing again
where you put on the costume with all the different
racially incense of the sombrero, with the chinaman's uh.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I thought this was the best year ever for the sombrero.
Well to make she could go as a what's his name,
Hakeem hockey hockeym Well.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
The good news is if you're looking for a Halloween
costume that does not offend, there's a new place in
town where you can go.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Welcome to Woke World Halloween Superstore.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Oh I thought this was a spirit Halloween.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Yeah, we make it look that way.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I want to get a ghost costume.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Eh, that does disrespect the day?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
All right? Never mind? What about a werewolf?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Kind of offensive to people with abnormal hair growth?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Evil clown?
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Think of the people with mental issues, a Mario brother.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Ethnic stereotype match skeleton eating disorders.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Forget it. I'll just wear a white T shirt.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Maybe just go with black.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
It incorporates all the colors.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Oh brother, hey, thanks for coming to the world.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Here's how you can spawn a zombie. Look for someone
who has a close like appear. Rice exhibits aggressive behavior,
creeps human flesh, and utters incoherent moans and groans. I
don't know. With your help we can prevent the zombie uprising.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I pledge of leadies to the United States of America
one nation.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
End of this wonder God for real.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Walton M.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Johnson bro the first time I watched this movie. To
give you an idea of how old I was, I
just assume Bob Hoskins was the most famous actor in America.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Who Bob the right that say?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
There?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Uh the guy that was He's lusting after the rabbit,
Mister Kettith.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Think about how much the world's changed since this movie
came out. This film in the nineteen eighties used eighty
two thousand hand drawn frames with three hundred animators.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Good Lord, must have taken them years to make this happen.
And yet today you got AI on your phone. You
can push a button, tell it what you want, and
fifteen seconds later you got a whole movie.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Bi Bill Murray was originally considered for the role of
Eddie Valiant. Tim Curry was originally considered for the role
of Judge Doom, but that went to Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
He would have been good. I'd love Tim Curry.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Christopher Lloyd did not blink once the entire film to
create an unsettling effect for his character.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
That is unsettling. Did they edit out any of his blinks?
I guess because you can't just go the whole movie
without blinking.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Boy, Christopher Lloyd is a talented guy, isn't he Just
in every movie? He's an He's so great.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Didn't he just have his birthday? Back to the Future?
I think so. Yeah, we just talked about this yesterday.
He is pretty old now, but yeah, he had his day.
One of the greatest actors of our time. Underrated, clever, creative, unique.
I wonder what his political beliefs are. Find out and
I hate him?
Speaker 3 (12:00):
H Oh?
Speaker 2 (12:01):
What is so? Donald Trump's a beast? He needs to
be put in a cage.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Man. He's half right, he is a beast. Never look
that stuff up. Did you know the freeway scheme in
the movie? They wanted to destroy Tunetown to build a
freeway that was inspired by the actual destruction of minority
neighborhoods in Los Angeles by freeways built in the mid
twentieth century.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
That is right. They told black people goad to go
get out, move away, because we need to put some
traffic in here. Yeah. Anyway, right the way they treat you.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
And Disney wanted it to be less family friendly, so
they released it as a touchstone picture to get Warner
Brothers to agree to bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck up here.
Disney insisted they get as much screen time as Mickey
Mouse and Donald Duck.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Oh boy, that's true. They had all both in the movie. Yes, oh,
they had it all. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Anyway, it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
It's a long time ago now, something to look forward to.
Yesterday we were chatting about Landman, the series from Taylor Sheridan,
you know, Billy, Bob Tharton, Big Oil, all that kind
of stuff. That is a good show. And you just
asked me yesterday when's the second season coming out? And
I said, I don't know, but it's getting close, because
you know, there's starting to be a lot more stories
in the news and they've got trailers out now. Well,
(13:07):
I did a little research did some digging. Land Man
returns in three weeks, well three weeks from Sunday, November sixteenth,
so get ready for that.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Cool.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
I am excited about it. I seemed almost speechless.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Well as I'm sitting here listening to you tell me
about a show I want to watch, which I do
want to watch. We also got an email here from Drew.
Drew says, Kenny, don't listen to mister O or Billy ed.
Your DMX impersonation was solid bro ten out of ten,
no notes, no notes. Yeah, that means like he wouldn't
tell me how to improve it. It's already perfect. No
way to make it better.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Touchy subject me doing DMX on the show earlier.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Well, besides land Man coming up in about three weeks,
we've got other shows that are coming out. You did
you ever watch The Mayor of Kingtown?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I I liked it, but I never got too deep
into it. There was other stuff on TV at the time.
I think it came out during an election. I watched
a bit of it. I mean, you know, it's got Hawkeye,
it's quite involved. Who's this Hawkeye from Marvel? The guy
with the Bow and arrow. That's the same actor in it. No,
it's the same actor, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
The fourth season premiere is this weekend, this Sunday. Jeremy Renner,
Yeah he's in it, but not this Hawkeye person you're
talking about. That's the guy from mash You're confused, mayor
of KINKSWN. Fourth season premiere is this weekend, So if
you're a fan, you can tune in. If you're canny,
(14:37):
you can just you know, watch your your little superhero
boys with their bows and arrows. That'll be fun too.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
They ruined Marvel for me. Remember when Jeremy Renner got
ran over by a snowplow four team.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
By his own self. He ran himself over.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
He was trying to save his nephew from the vehicle.
He claims the accident resulted in serious extensive injuries, including
thirty eight broken bones and collapse long nearly fractured liver.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Wow. Wait wait wait fractured liver that's what it says. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
The incident happened after the snowplod began sliding because the
parking braak was not set.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Thanks a lot, your nephew, thanks a lot. You almost
killed one of the greatest actors jeedy.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
If you're feeling sorry for anybody, maybe Kim Kererdashian comes
to mind. All that stuff yesterday we talked about with
her seventy million dollar Malibu home and her other twenty
five million dollar other home in LA where they're just
you know, like twenty minutes apart or whatever. But it's
important she is now revealed you should feel sorry for her.
She has this is an aneurysm in her brain. Yeah,
(15:43):
so that's why she's so stupid, which she blames on
Kanye of course, obviously having to deal with all of
his nonsense for the last few years. Has that ever
happened before.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
I don't want to like besmirch someone for if that's
a legitimate excuse, But I've never heard of somebody having
an aneurysm because their ex husband's weird.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Stress. Stress can cause that sort of thing. Yeah, Oh, okay,
well I believe you. I just didn't know it all right. Well.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Catholic schoolgirl was shot by a transgender gunman. She just
left the hospital. She's been reunited with her friends. A
beautiful video of her getting out of the limo at
the Annunciation Catholic School. Victim Sophia Fortress returned to her
school after a miraculous recovery, which her family attributes to
the intervention of Our Lord Jesus Christ. O.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Kevin makes you feel good, doesn't it.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
In August, you may recall a transgender young man who
absolutely hated Christians, loaded up with guns, went on an
anti Christian, anti Trump, anti God shooting spree.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
We never heard much about who that person was or
anything about them.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It was at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, and
thirteen year old Sophia was shot in the head. Sixteen
other children were injured, two died, but she made it.
She's alive, and there's a video of her yesterday returning
to her classmates and everybody cheering for he really heartwarming
moment and a quick reminder folks that we're going to
have less of that nonsense going on now, because we're
(17:05):
not going to mutilate kids anymore.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That sounds like a good idea. Who came up with this?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Donald Trump had this idea?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Good man, He's a beast, I tell you, I.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Mean, I think it's a good idea. We had a
good old fashioned hockey fight in the NHL last night
and it was violent.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Wait, hockey's back already. Yeah it was a good one too, Lord,
I didn't know hockey was back, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
So as the Sharks versus the Rangers, and I know
what you're thinking, Texas, No, I think that's a Canadian
team and arms and the fight experience the NHL certainly belongs
to Reeves.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
And actually grapple with one another here. But that's a
good shot.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Both players lose their aldics who they're really punching each
other in the face, in the heads and the face,
bloody nose. You could tell they're both Canadian because look
at their beady little eyes. Gross Canadians are disgusting, like
powsome faces. You could just tell from the shape of
their head that they're Canadian.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
The one guy have really uh padded pants or is
he fat? This button legs look funny?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
And that interesting that hockey player is a black guy?
Is that common nowadays? I'm impressed by that.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Where's the black guy right here? Look again, I'll back
it up for you. The guy on the Sharks team,
Oh yeah he is.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, he's opped the ones fighting though. He's a brother Reeves,
I guess is a brother. Well, I guess I'm I
like him for two reasons. Now, he plays on a
team in the South, and he's a brother. I support it.
I'm not brother, he's a brother. But yeah, I said
he's a brother.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
That's that's different.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Yeah, it's I mean, no, it's not. It's I said
what he was. I said what I said. Yeah, stay
by it. Yeah. Anyway, speaking to trainees, Uh.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
You should have said it as your black alter ego though.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Oh as DMX, could you all right ask me what
I thought about that fight?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
What do you think about that fight? They're in the
hockey game, can't you?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yo?
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Those hockey players are real environment. They started punching each other,
They got in each other's face. That's my love.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
One word on god, you're.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Right, see, DMX. Pretty good impression, right. I got to
tell you, if you could do that all the time,
that probably would help the ratings on this show.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Not a lot of morning radio shows that are featured
mostly on rock and right wing talk radio stations are
doing DMX impersonations.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
But we've got it. Yeah, but I'm most it's probably
gonna be a matter of time before Karen calls the
manager and says, we can't do that.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Why why can't I do that impersonation?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
We'll look at you, you know, white, never thing.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Wait a second, you're telling me it's racist to do
that impersonation. She doesn't want me to do it because
I'm White's right? Isn't there a word for when you
tell people they can't do something because of their skin color,
not if they're white.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
No, no, Some the sons of Geronimo, still suffering from.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
Propeller lag, are nipped by the Dowers Tonight subbon and nothing.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Stay tuned for more Waltman Johnson
Hey, this is a great song. What is this Billy
id right here?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Yeah? What is it? Uh? The tcban Baby tcban? Who
wrote this song?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Elvish?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Probably? I don't know, it could be.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
I think it was bt O, but it's TCB by

both outstanding artists in their own field.
Speaker 1 (02:55):

Speaker 1 (04:02):
As a young kid, I could never tell the difference
we him and Danny DeVito.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I always thought they were the same person. Yeah, I
can see that. Hey, Billy ed, what do we need
both of them for?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
What do we As long as we got Jessica Rabbit,
we don't need neither of them. It's fine. You know
that Jessica was fine, wouldn't she?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
She was great?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
And I always liked that song she would sing in
the movie. It was very salacious, in like a nineteen
twenties kind of wall.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
You had the volume turned up. Huh eh, that's one
way to go. You'd watch them this day in history
brought to you by Law Tigers. If you've been in
a motorcycle accident and you survived it, Waltiger's going to
be your new best friend, all right, And if you didn't,
maybe then your your relatives, would you know, want wall
(04:43):
Tiger's to help them out. Yeah, And they want you
to know that today, on this date in history. The
match was patented today in eighteen thirty six. So if
you've ever struck a match, you know, a match dot
com today in eighteen sixty one. I can't believe that
website's that well. Today.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
In eighteen sixty one, the Western Union completed its trans
continental telegraph line. Bye Bye Pony Express, Hello trans People.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
That was exciting. Yeah, that worked out real good till
the Indians figured out how to build ladders. You mean
the two spirits, I think you mean yeah, Yeah, And
they started scampering up the polls and they figured out
them whispering wires was hell. They was getting defeated, so
they started cutting him waters. Brilliant. Yeah. Today.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
In eighteen ninety seven, the comic strip was born with
the first Yellow Kid comic in the New York Journal.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
It was about a little Asian boy.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
So today, in nineteen oh one, the first barrel ride
over Niagara Falls, and yes, it was done by a
woman on purpose, Annie Edson Taylor. It was well, that's
how divorce worked back then. They tricked her into getting
into that barrel. Today, in nineteen sixteen, Henry Ford began
equal pay for women.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
That was a mistake.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
He could have had them work at seventy five cents
on the dollar.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Ain't that the truth?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Today?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
In nineteen twenty nine, Black Thursday, mister Ow, oh, I
heard about it markets crash triggering the Great Depression.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Oh god, that was today.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
And of course I bring that up because mister Owe
is the financial whiz of our show. He always explains
the economy to us.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I don't want to be a whizz or a wizard.
I can be neither. One Grand Wizard of the Walton
Johnson Show. And today, in nineteen thirty one, the George
Washington Bridge was dedicated. It finished eight months ahead of schedule,
and it's the only time probably in an American history,
that a government project was completed on time.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Today, in nineteen thirty eighth, the Fair Labor Standards Act
established the forty hour work week. Same day, Henry Ford
did the thing with the women and today. In nineteen
forty five, the United Nations became a thing. The first
twenty nine member nations ratified their charter, and it was
mostly white countries.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Today.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
In two thousand and three, the Supersonic Concord made its
final commercial flight from New York City to Heathrow.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
I missed the concord and I never flew on it.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Mean neither, but I heard you could smoke on it. Really, yeah,
that would have been cool today in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
You don't smoke, but you would have taken it up though,
if you've got to file on the concord.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Okay, let's get real about cigarettes for a minute. Have
you ever noticed whenever somebody's got a cigarette in their hand,
they just look smarter than other people and.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Cooler and set to your Yeah, yeah, everything in your
life will be better if you just start smoking. I've
noticed when someone has a cigarette, just stop. If you
trick one person into starting smoking, then you've done terrible,
terrible things.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
When I see people smoking, Like if someone was a
six and they picked up a smoke boom instantly a nine,
oh hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And today.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
In two thousand and eight, Bloody Friday, the global stock
market experienced major declines.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Isn't that remarkable?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
All that financial stuff happened on the same day, Bloody Friday,
Fair Labor Standards Act, Black Thursday, Henry Ford's Equal Pay
for Women.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, but this is Friday, So I think you're off
a day. What do you mean you said it was
Black Thursday? Okay, so Billy would be yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
The way the calendar works is that the numbers fall
on different days every year, at the week different.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Are you sure about to I'm pretty sure? Yeah? Who
told you that?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Well? Did you every notice how yam Kipper and Dwalai
are on different every year?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
You ever noticed that? But sometimes on the same day?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah, exactly. I don't know if that's actually true or not. Boy,
I'd got to tell you. When you have Yam Kipper
and Dualai on the same day, that is a party.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
It is.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Other things that happened on this day in history, Civil
rights pioneer Rosa Parks died at the age of ninety
two twenty years ago, and we still miss her very
very much. You still miss her? Right? Who was the person?
You have to say? Yes?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Rosa Parks stole her idea from a different person. There
was a younger black girl, Claudette Colvin, was a fifteen
year old girl who refused to give up her seat
nine months earlier. The NAACP initially chose not to use
Calvin as the face of the movement because she felt
she was not an ideal symbol, whereas Rosa Parks was
seen as more of a suitable and respectable figure in
the community.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
But it also got posted on social media, so it's
like it never happened.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I know.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, they didn't have TikTok back then. That's a problem, Yeah, exactly.
And Rosa Park, you know, it was her inspiration. She
was aware of Calvin's situation. Historians know what the Parks
may have been inspired by Calvin, but they never gave
Calvin any credit. It all went to Rosa Parks. And
that's the rest of the story. Yeah, it's kind of
screwed up, huh it is. It's not cool stealing something
from black lady.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You go start to movement, now you go start to
clawed dip movement.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Why try to have a movement a few minutes ago?
But the cleaning Lady was in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Why don't you hate it when she does that? I
just locks the door. I cannot stand her.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
You know, with all the Halloween parties coming up, you
certainly wouldn't want to offend anyone with a costume this year,
would you. Guys?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Absolutely not?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Bill, Yet, you're not going to do that thing again
where you put on the costume with all the different
racially incense of the sombrero, with the chinaman's uh.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I thought this was the best year ever for the sombrero.
Well to make she could go as a what's his name,
Hakeem hockey hockeym Well.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
The good news is if you're looking for a Halloween
costume that does not offend, there's a new place in
town where you can go.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Welcome to Woke World Halloween Superstore.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Oh I thought this was a spirit Halloween.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Yeah, we make it look that way.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I want to get a ghost costume.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Eh, that does disrespect the day?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
All right? Never mind? What about a werewolf?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Kind of offensive to people with abnormal hair growth?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Evil clown?
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Think of the people with mental issues, a Mario brother.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Ethnic stereotype match skeleton eating disorders.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Forget it. I'll just wear a white T shirt.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Maybe just go with black.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
It incorporates all the colors.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Oh brother, hey, thanks for coming to the world.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Here's how you can spawn a zombie. Look for someone
who has a close like appear. Rice exhibits aggressive behavior,
creeps human flesh, and utters incoherent moans and groans. I
don't know. With your help we can prevent the zombie uprising.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I pledge of leadies to the United States of America
one nation.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
End of this wonder God for real.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Walton M.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Johnson bro the first time I watched this movie. To
give you an idea of how old I was, I
just assume Bob Hoskins was the most famous actor in America.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Who Bob the right that say?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
There?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Uh the guy that was He's lusting after the rabbit,
Mister Kettith.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Think about how much the world's changed since this movie
came out. This film in the nineteen eighties used eighty
two thousand hand drawn frames with three hundred animators.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Good Lord, must have taken them years to make this happen.
And yet today you got AI on your phone. You
can push a button, tell it what you want, and
fifteen seconds later you got a whole movie.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Bi Bill Murray was originally considered for the role of
Eddie Valiant. Tim Curry was originally considered for the role
of Judge Doom, but that went to Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
He would have been good. I'd love Tim Curry.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Christopher Lloyd did not blink once the entire film to
create an unsettling effect for his character.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
That is unsettling. Did they edit out any of his blinks?
I guess because you can't just go the whole movie
without blinking.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Boy, Christopher Lloyd is a talented guy, isn't he Just
in every movie? He's an He's so great.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Didn't he just have his birthday? Back to the Future?
I think so. Yeah, we just talked about this yesterday.
He is pretty old now, but yeah, he had his day.
One of the greatest actors of our time. Underrated, clever, creative, unique.
I wonder what his political beliefs are. Find out and
I hate him?
Speaker 3 (12:00):
H Oh?
Speaker 2 (12:01):
What is so? Donald Trump's a beast? He needs to
be put in a cage.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Man. He's half right, he is a beast. Never look
that stuff up. Did you know the freeway scheme in
the movie? They wanted to destroy Tunetown to build a
freeway that was inspired by the actual destruction of minority
neighborhoods in Los Angeles by freeways built in the mid
twentieth century.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
That is right. They told black people goad to go
get out, move away, because we need to put some
traffic in here. Yeah. Anyway, right the way they treat you.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
And Disney wanted it to be less family friendly, so
they released it as a touchstone picture to get Warner
Brothers to agree to bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck up here.
Disney insisted they get as much screen time as Mickey
Mouse and Donald Duck.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Oh boy, that's true. They had all both in the movie. Yes, oh,
they had it all. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Anyway, it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
It's a long time ago now, something to look forward to.
Yesterday we were chatting about Landman, the series from Taylor Sheridan,
you know, Billy, Bob Tharton, Big Oil, all that kind
of stuff. That is a good show. And you just
asked me yesterday when's the second season coming out? And
I said, I don't know, but it's getting close, because
you know, there's starting to be a lot more stories
in the news and they've got trailers out now. Well,
(13:07):
I did a little research did some digging. Land Man
returns in three weeks, well three weeks from Sunday, November sixteenth,
so get ready for that.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Cool.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
I am excited about it. I seemed almost speechless.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Well as I'm sitting here listening to you tell me
about a show I want to watch, which I do
want to watch. We also got an email here from Drew.
Drew says, Kenny, don't listen to mister O or Billy ed.
Your DMX impersonation was solid bro ten out of ten,
no notes, no notes. Yeah, that means like he wouldn't
tell me how to improve it. It's already perfect. No
way to make it better.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Touchy subject me doing DMX on the show earlier.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Well, besides land Man coming up in about three weeks,
we've got other shows that are coming out. You did
you ever watch The Mayor of Kingtown?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I I liked it, but I never got too deep
into it. There was other stuff on TV at the time.
I think it came out during an election. I watched
a bit of it. I mean, you know, it's got Hawkeye,
it's quite involved. Who's this Hawkeye from Marvel? The guy
with the Bow and arrow. That's the same actor in it. No,
it's the same actor, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
The fourth season premiere is this weekend, this Sunday. Jeremy Renner,
Yeah he's in it, but not this Hawkeye person you're
talking about. That's the guy from mash You're confused, mayor
of KINKSWN. Fourth season premiere is this weekend, So if
you're a fan, you can tune in. If you're canny,
(14:37):
you can just you know, watch your your little superhero
boys with their bows and arrows. That'll be fun too.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
They ruined Marvel for me. Remember when Jeremy Renner got
ran over by a snowplow four team.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
By his own self. He ran himself over.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
He was trying to save his nephew from the vehicle.
He claims the accident resulted in serious extensive injuries, including
thirty eight broken bones and collapse long nearly fractured liver.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Wow. Wait wait wait fractured liver that's what it says. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
The incident happened after the snowplod began sliding because the
parking braak was not set.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Thanks a lot, your nephew, thanks a lot. You almost
killed one of the greatest actors jeedy.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
If you're feeling sorry for anybody, maybe Kim Kererdashian comes
to mind. All that stuff yesterday we talked about with
her seventy million dollar Malibu home and her other twenty
five million dollar other home in LA where they're just
you know, like twenty minutes apart or whatever. But it's
important she is now revealed you should feel sorry for her.
She has this is an aneurysm in her brain. Yeah,
(15:43):
so that's why she's so stupid, which she blames on
Kanye of course, obviously having to deal with all of
his nonsense for the last few years. Has that ever
happened before.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
I don't want to like besmirch someone for if that's
a legitimate excuse, But I've never heard of somebody having
an aneurysm because their ex husband's weird.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Stress. Stress can cause that sort of thing. Yeah, Oh, okay,
well I believe you. I just didn't know it all right. Well.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Catholic schoolgirl was shot by a transgender gunman. She just
left the hospital. She's been reunited with her friends. A
beautiful video of her getting out of the limo at
the Annunciation Catholic School. Victim Sophia Fortress returned to her
school after a miraculous recovery, which her family attributes to
the intervention of Our Lord Jesus Christ. O.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Kevin makes you feel good, doesn't it.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
In August, you may recall a transgender young man who
absolutely hated Christians, loaded up with guns, went on an
anti Christian, anti Trump, anti God shooting spree.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
We never heard much about who that person was or
anything about them.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It was at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, and
thirteen year old Sophia was shot in the head. Sixteen
other children were injured, two died, but she made it.
She's alive, and there's a video of her yesterday returning
to her classmates and everybody cheering for he really heartwarming
moment and a quick reminder folks that we're going to
have less of that nonsense going on now, because we're
(17:05):
not going to mutilate kids anymore.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That sounds like a good idea. Who came up with this?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Donald Trump had this idea?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Good man, He's a beast, I tell you, I.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Mean, I think it's a good idea. We had a
good old fashioned hockey fight in the NHL last night
and it was violent.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Wait, hockey's back already. Yeah it was a good one too, Lord,
I didn't know hockey was back, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
So as the Sharks versus the Rangers, and I know
what you're thinking, Texas, No, I think that's a Canadian
team and arms and the fight experience the NHL certainly belongs
to Reeves.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
And actually grapple with one another here. But that's a
good shot.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Both players lose their aldics who they're really punching each
other in the face, in the heads and the face,
bloody nose. You could tell they're both Canadian because look
at their beady little eyes. Gross Canadians are disgusting, like
powsome faces. You could just tell from the shape of
their head that they're Canadian.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
The one guy have really uh padded pants or is
he fat? This button legs look funny?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
And that interesting that hockey player is a black guy?
Is that common nowadays? I'm impressed by that.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Where's the black guy right here? Look again, I'll back
it up for you. The guy on the Sharks team,
Oh yeah he is.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, he's opped the ones fighting though. He's a brother Reeves,
I guess is a brother. Well, I guess I'm I
like him for two reasons. Now, he plays on a
team in the South, and he's a brother. I support it.
I'm not brother, he's a brother. But yeah, I said
he's a brother.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
That's that's different.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Yeah, it's I mean, no, it's not. It's I said
what he was. I said what I said. Yeah, stay
by it. Yeah. Anyway, speaking to trainees, Uh.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
You should have said it as your black alter ego though.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Oh as DMX, could you all right ask me what
I thought about that fight?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
What do you think about that fight? They're in the
hockey game, can't you?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yo?
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Those hockey players are real environment. They started punching each other,
They got in each other's face. That's my love.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
One word on god, you're.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Right, see, DMX. Pretty good impression, right. I got to
tell you, if you could do that all the time,
that probably would help the ratings on this show.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Not a lot of morning radio shows that are featured
mostly on rock and right wing talk radio stations are
doing DMX impersonations.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
But we've got it. Yeah, but I'm most it's probably
gonna be a matter of time before Karen calls the
manager and says, we can't do that.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Why why can't I do that impersonation?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
We'll look at you, you know, white, never thing.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Wait a second, you're telling me it's racist to do
that impersonation. She doesn't want me to do it because
I'm White's right? Isn't there a word for when you
tell people they can't do something because of their skin color,
not if they're white.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
No, no, Some the sons of Geronimo, still suffering from.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
Propeller lag, are nipped by the Dowers Tonight subbon and nothing.
Speaker 2 (19:49):

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
