couple of days. I was off Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
last week. Returned to the state yesterday to head down
to a place I'd never been before, Saint Simon's Island, Georgia,
down in the Golden Isle area. The only thing I

(02:21):
had to say to my bosses here, Dale Cooper and
Jared Parsons, You're lucky I came back. I'm a kidding,
of course, but it is an incredible place. More on
that coming up a little bit later on Former Charleston

(03:26):
University's takeover of Charleston will commence with the annual Paint
the Capital City Green event at the Marshall University bill
No Fights School at Westfordiny International Younger Airport. Get into
way about six o'clock. I'll be serving as the MC
here to talk about it now. The voice of the
Thunder and Heerd Steve Cotton. Good morning, sir, and welcome
to the show.

Speaker 6 (03:43):
Well, good morning, Dave. It is the first day of
classes at Marshall University. We're what about an hour and
ten minutes beyond the first classes for a lot of
people taking the first class of their lives. A new
group of freshmen in here.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
Remember, let's go back to your your college days. Do
you remember your first day of class Steve at university?

Speaker 6 (04:08):
Yes, University of Florida down in Gainesville, Florida and huge Campa. Yeah.
The campus is about a mile long from one end
to the other, and you park about a mile as
a commuter student beyond from the near side of campus.
So it was those first few days trying to find
your way around, you know, a campus that had at

(04:31):
that time close to thirty thousand students and so yep,
right now. I feel some empathy for the people walking
around with a little campus map and they're not quite
sure how to find whatever. And it's even extra confusing
for anybody who's ever been. My office is in the
cam Henderson Center, next to Gallason Hall, the old building,

(04:53):
and it's amaze And people have classes in gallocks In
Hall that they cannot find, so they're wandering through the
Henderson Centers. I don't know where I am. So that's
going on this week.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah, it's you know, and I feel like I missed
out on a little bit of that because I went
to a Community of Technical College for two years and
then I transferred to Marshall, so I missed the dorm
life experience.

Speaker 7 (05:13):
You know.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
I had an apartment my first my two years at
Marshall to finish up there, so I feel like I
missed out a little bit, But I you know, being
on there's a big difference between the campus of Southern
West Virginia Community of Technical College in Logan and Williamson
compared to Marshall University, so I know what those students
are going through. We're got a course getting ready for

(05:34):
football season. Steve coach Tony Gibson is there. We have
a new athletic director and Cherald Harrison, a whole lot
of new players getting ready to open up on the
road against Georgia here in a couple of weeks. So
that's an exciting time.

Speaker 6 (05:48):
I am the old guy at this point who is
reminiscing about the years when I had to learn about
maybe fifteen newcomers. I'm the football roster who might play
that year. And now it's that's not just Marshall that
Oh yeah, the world we live in now and it
is exciting. You have so much new every year. A
few weeks ago, I got the ballot from the Sun

(06:12):
Belt Conference wanting preseason polls and all that kind of thing.
I thought, how does anybody know what they're Everybody has
at least fifty new players, and so every year is
even more new. You know less than you did about
your team than you would have even a decade ago.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
It's the times, As mister Dylon said, they are a
changing in the world of college athletics. Again, this is
not just a marsh university thing. They're dealing with it
in Morgantown, They're dealing with it at college campuses across America.
We're talking to Steve Cotton, the voice of the Thundering
Nerven Dave Island Show on five. Any Life is Brought
to You part by Morgan to Morgan, America's largest injury
law firm. Arioight, Let's get ready to Paint the Capital

(06:51):
City green. It's coming up Thursday night at the bill
No Flight School at West Virginia International Jaeger Airport STEE.
For those that have never been to a Paint the
Capital City event, talk about what kind of mayhem that ensues.

Speaker 6 (07:04):
It is certainly unique, and unique is an overused word,
but I don't know of any other school that goes
with an event like this at the airport and a
giant hangar that is wonderful. The bill No Flight School
is a gem of Marshall University. You have those Kelly
green planes in and out, and then you know the

(07:30):
way they decorate the hangar and all the electronics and everything.
It is a one of a kind. Coach Gibson, as
a first year coach, we talk about all the newness
every team has every year, but Marshall even more so
you have him. He'll be a part of the program.
Both basketball coaches Corney Jackson of the men and women's
coaches Julie Foulkes, I know, Keith Roberts, track and field

(07:52):
head coach Ian waaltsh the swimming coach, are all scheduled
to be a part of the program and there will
be many others there as well. It is a.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
Evening, it is indeed, and again proceeds will benefit the
Big Green. The entire thing being put on by the
marsh University Quarterback Club of Charleston. It's this Thursday night.
Of course, I'm going to be serving as the MC
and and normally Steve Animal is with me, Steve Cotton,
but he had a prior commitment. He'll be at Fife
Street Live for a live broadcast that night, so they're
going to be stuck with me. We have the live auction.

(08:22):
As you said, the coaches are going to be there,
and you're going to be hosting as has been in
the past. You're going to be doing a little Q
and A with some of the folks on stage. Talk
about that.

Speaker 6 (08:31):
Yeah, it is. I think that that's the list of
coaches that I just ran down. I know for sure
they're going to be there because they are part of
the program, and it is you look at it, there's
so much new. We're talking about the veteran is Ian Walls,
the swim coach. He's been here for the head coach
for four years, five years, something like that. Most of

(08:52):
the others are there for the first or second time.
So it is an opportunity for all of Herd Nation
to come together in the capital city and get to
know some of these people, many of whom they've never
had a chance to meet before.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Now there are still tickets available, but they're going to
be gone by the time Thursday rolls around. So I
wouldn't plan on showing up at the door and think
you're gonna be able to get in. You need to
get your tickets in advance. The email address for that
is Big Green at Marshall dot edu. Again, it's big
Green at Marshall dot edu. Or you can call three
zero four sixty nine six forty six sixty one. That's

(09:29):
three oh four sixty nine six forty six sixty one.
Information is available various spots on the interweb, including the
Quarterback Club of Charleston, and they have a Facebook page
that's got the information on there. I've also got to
information shared on my social media and Dave Island Radio
over on Facebook, so be sure and check that out.
And the mayor of Charleston, Amy Goodwin, who has one

(09:52):
kid going to WVU and one going to Marshall, so
she's got dual citizenship. She's going to be given the
opening address. It's just a good good time all around.
Our friend Chef Paul is providing the food. You and
I are food Guy's cotton.

Speaker 8 (10:04):
You know.

Speaker 4 (10:04):
The food is always.

Speaker 6 (10:05):
Good, yes, And I am kind of surprised that you
did return from your trip. I was watching your food
experiences the last few days.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
You ever been down, I mean you're a traveler. You
ever been down to what they call the Golden Isles
down there around Saint Simon's Jacko Island. Ever been there?

Speaker 6 (10:22):
Actually, No, done all the Florida stuff as a resident
of Florida for several years and done a lot of
both of the Carolinas, but no, not the Georgia kind
of thing. Well, that is on my list.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
I will say this, if you want to go to
a place it sounds like I'm, you know, part of
their tourism department. But if you want to go to
a place that's non touristy. We didn't stay on the beach, Okay,
our place was about a mile or two away, but
simple jump in the car, you drive to the beach,
free parking, very very clean, locals are great, the food

(10:56):
was great, so I would I'd highly advise. Now, it
takes a while to get there, especially we seem to
encounter every wreck on the eastern shore, you know, on
the way down there. It took a little while to
get there. This kind of a hall if you're driving.
But we had a good time. So if you get
an opportunity, steve good on there and check it out.
Saint Simon's. It's it's an absolutely fantastic place, all right. Again,
Ben To Capitol City Green at the build no flight

(11:17):
school up at the airport. It's Thursday night at six o'clock.
Marshall coaches will be there. I think the cheerleaders are
going to be there. It's just a great night, great food,
great drink, getting ready for what's going to be an
exciting Thundering Herd season. I would be remiss, though. I
want to bring this up real quick before we let
you go. Your heart has got to be broken just

(11:38):
a little bit for Jj Roberts. He was a standout
at cabol middleand high school, all around stud on defense,
had a real chance and was just killing it in
training camp for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Suffered a season
ending injury during a practice scrimmage last week. What a
great I got a chance to meet and hang out
with him last year.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
Steve.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
What a great, great young man, and I know his
story is not over yet.

Speaker 6 (12:03):
His character will not allow this to be any more
than the speed bunt Dave. You mentioned it right there.
He is a top notch human being. He has a
maturity about him that will allow him to instead of
getting all down about this and it's a bummer for
him and everybody else, and he's got to do all

(12:23):
the rehab and everything, but he has a big picture view.
He understands what is important in life. He understands the
overcoming adversity is something we all do and he will
jump into rehab and that kind of thing and come
out on the other side of it even better.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
All right, And he was just absolutely killing it. As
a matter of fact, the day of the injury. That morning,
I was reading an article that was done by a
beat writer for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that talked about
what a great story that this young man was. And
then he goes out on that scrimmage on Thursday, season
ending injury. But we certainly wish him the best because,
as we said, his story is not over yet. Hey, Steve,
thanks for taking time at your schedule to be here.

(13:02):
Looking forward to seeing you and hanging out with you
Thursday night as we paint the Capital City green up
at the bill No Flight School at West Virginia International
Yeager Airport. Thanks a lot, buddy, Thank you, You're welcome.

were talking there. Steve Cotton, the voice of the Thundering,

(16:03):
heard about the what I thought was a season engine
is season ending injury to former Marshall's standout now Champa
Bay Buccaneers defensive back JJ Roberts. Jim Workman from the
state's premier sports publication, and of course he's headed the
Sports Writers Association in West Virginia's well. Jim Workman of
Wally and Whippies tells me the via text season ending

(16:24):
not confirmed. More info later. And you certainly hope that
is the case, because you always want players from you know,
from our college and from our university's Marshall WVU State.
You see, whatever, we always want them to do well
once they leave to go into the pros. But I
got a special fundus for JJ Roberts because I said,
I got to know him a couple of years ago.

(16:45):
He is a class act, a quality young man, and
uh it was a long shot for him to be
in the NFL to begin with. He was killing it
in the Buccaneers camp. I mean, as I said, I
was reading last week an article from one of the
beat writers that covers the Buccaneers that said this kid
is for real.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
And then on.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
Thursday, a serious injury. Jim Workman tells me, maybe not.
That was the initial reports that it was season ending.
Maybe not. We certainly hope that is the case. We
will keep you posted Danny Jones coming up a little
bit later on in the show. If you're a listener
to one of our sisters stations, you're in the building
ninety eight seven of the Mouth. And we lost one
of her valuable team members on Fridays, Amy Ryan, opted

(17:27):
to perhaps better herself and get out of radio. I'm
just joking about that. Amy. Amy served us well for
a couple of years, and she'd opted to go do
something else outside of the world of radio, and so
we wish her the best. But we got a slot
to fill on the Mouth and from three to seven,
and why not promote from within because this guy has
been around for a while and he never really went away.

(17:50):
Shockly is his name. He's a Charleston native, of course,
and he's gonna be taken over that three to seven
slot in the Mountain, so we thought we'd welcome into
the studio. He was hanging out with Animal this morning.

Speaker 12 (18:00):
How you doing, man, I'm glad to be back, man.
I'm excited about the opportunity. And it's one of those
things where you can do radio for a long time
you think, yeah, yeah, I need to get out of
this for a while. I've been doing it for too long,
and then you it has a way of kind of
pulling you back in. And sometimes it can have a
way of being there for you right when you need

(18:20):
it the most.

Speaker 13 (18:21):
And that's kind of the way it's worked out for me.

Speaker 4 (18:23):
Well, somebody commented on our social media when we did
a little graphic about you coming back, they said, he
left question mark. Yeah, I mean you were you were
living in DC and you were working there, but you
were but you had, you know, family ties. You know,
you're from this area, so you were back and forth
a lot, and so whenever you were here, you would
hang out with us, would come in the on the
morning show Steve, but you weren't officially here. Yeah, because
you were there. Now you're not there anymore. Now you're here.

Speaker 13 (18:46):
Yeah. I didn't move there to do another radio gig.
So that was another important thing.

Speaker 12 (18:50):
So I said, I'm not leaving, I'm just going to
be not here as often.

Speaker 13 (18:55):
And so now I'm going to be here a lot more.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
You were part of the auxiliary that's there. You go,
and you're the resident historian when it comes to music
here in concerts of all varieties. And and I'll tell
you if you are you back on social media again
because I know you're a wife.

Speaker 13 (19:08):
Yeah, I started a page back up.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
Okay, follow this guy on Facebook because he's always posted.
I mean, you've got an incredible collection of stuff vintage
Charleston when it comes to music. But also and it's
not just rock. I mean you're a rock guy, but
I mean you're posting things about other genres of music
and about what a hotbed over the years, the Charleston,
the Charleston Huntington area has been for music. So make

(19:31):
sure you follow him.

Speaker 13 (19:32):
One of my few superpowers.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
I think, let's talk about your career in radio though,
I mean, because you've been you've been around. Again, you're
a you're a dunbar guy. Yeah right, but but you've
been around and you worked in different places. Talk about
your career here in the Charleston market.

Speaker 12 (19:45):
Well, as far as the career goes it, the candle
was kind of let with super duper Charlie Cooper. When
I was a kid, I was in Greade school listening
to him on W A Z And from listening to him,
I thought, yeah, that would be a great gig. And
then a few years later I was listening to other
local jocks, Joe Kerner JK, the DJ, and it was

(20:11):
finally whenever I was in student council, I was the
secretary of student council, you know, high office stuff at
you yeah, and at Delmar High School when I hired
a guy by the name of Bill Shahan to do
some dances, and from there he kind of remembered my
name and in the summer of nineteen ninety I called

(20:31):
him up and I said, hey, man, you got a
gig for me?

Speaker 13 (20:34):
And he said, yeah, I can use you, Bubby, and.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
He called everybody Bubby led great Bill Shahan.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yep.

Speaker 13 (20:38):
He hired me on into the newsroom.

Speaker 12 (20:40):
So my first gig was actually as a news guy
for WVSR, and that was really cool. We had a
little bit of a new staff there, and then within
a relatively short period of time, an opportunity to just
basically be third wheel on the morning show for mister
Bob Campbell presented itself and I just kind of took

(21:02):
off from there.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
And of course you've been around, you know, from the
various various stations here and.

Speaker 13 (21:08):
One O two, one O five, qb E.

Speaker 12 (21:11):
This is actually my fifth stop on the FM dial
in this market.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
Just in just in this market correct.

Speaker 13 (21:18):
Yeah, and then most.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
People, you know, you think like Steve Animal, Rob Reel,
some of the other poks this company, they had to
go across the country to get fired that many times.

Speaker 12 (21:25):
But you just stayed a well, actually I got lucky.
I only got I only got fired one ton.

Speaker 13 (21:30):
That was with xerock.

Speaker 12 (21:31):
And you know, you go from active rock and you
decide you want to go to right wing talk. It's
like that's quite a transition. Perhaps they didn't really want
us here to begin with. We'll take the hint.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
Talking to Larry Shockley. But Dave Island Show in five
Ady Live is brought to you a part by Live
Healthy West Virginia presented by WVU Medicine. It's a podcast
promoting healthier lifestyles in to beyond the state. Check have
the latest episodes wv metronews dot com under the podcast menu.
So you're gonna be taking over to slot three to seven. Yes,
before and Amy did a great job there, I mean
she did. She's a quality individual, quality broadcaster. Yes, some

(22:04):
of the segments that you do there, we do live
at five. You do back to back live cuts at
five o'clock kind of sending people out out the door
you'll close or getting close to the end of your
shift with the steroid of seven, which you What is
it about the classic rock format that you enjoy so much.

Speaker 12 (22:25):
I think that you are getting anytime you get closer
and closer to the root of a genre, regardless of
what kind of music it is, I think that's where
you're getting the most pure, the most the purity of
that form. And so with classic rock, you're getting just
a couple of generations away from the blues, and then

(22:48):
before that you're looking into pre rock and roll. So
I just absolutely love classic rock. It was they were
still well into the seventies, kind of inventing the wheel
in some ways, and everything that's come out after that
it's been highly derivative of something just over the last
twenty years, and so classics always been much more appealing
to me for that reason.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
Well, and you know, and we talked about this on
the show in the past. When you use the term
classic rock or retro you referenced Jkvi DJ good friend
of mine, Joe Kerner, who does the Retrofest every year.
People don't want to think about it. They want to think, well,
retro is the nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties for that news
for you, retro is now the early two thousand.

Speaker 12 (23:28):
Yeah, that's that's another thing where it's kind of a
moving a sliding scale, because it wasn't too long ago
that I was in my car driving around and something.
I was cerrus XM and there was an oldies channel,
an oldies channel, and they're playing Black Sabbath. I'm like,
I'm not ready for that. Well, oldies to me is Elvis.

welcome to welcome, welcome back.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
How you doing I'm doing fine, all right, I'm doing fine.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
We're on the Injured Reserve there for a little while,
but you're back.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
And yeah, I was on the injured.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
Can't keep a good man down.

Speaker 3 (29:33):
Well this one you almost did. Now I'm okay. Now
it's okay.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
Now. Big controversy hit over the last couple of days
and everybody's talking about on social media. Danny got awagh
in on this. Trick or Treating in Kanawh County has
been moved. The little candy beckers are going to be
out Thursday the thirtieth instead of the Halloween night. And
based on the reaction from social media, you would think

(29:57):
the Canawh County Commission was killing kittens or something. Over
run Virginia Street people and the mayor and I talked
about this. The things that people get fired up the
most are Halloween and Christmas parade times. You were mayor
for a long time and again, this is a county
commission thing. But yeah, trick or Treating is going to
be on Thursday night, the thirtieth instead of Friday night
because they don't want to interfere with high school football.

(30:19):
Everybody losing their mind's over. Danny.

Speaker 19 (30:21):
Well, I'm for what they're doing. I think it ought
to be on Thursday night.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
Well, and I think well, and again, it was all
over I was just reading last night. It was all
over my social media. And I'll talk about a little
bit more a little bit later on. I didn't want
to give you an opportunity there to talk about you
lost a good friend.

Speaker 19 (30:41):
Well, he wasn't a good friend. Somebody I knew and
I interviewed. Okay, Jerry Spence. He's a whelming trial lawyer
who wore a buckskin jacket and a black turtleneck and
white hair, and he's the best trial in the country.
Had lost hadn't lost Kate since nineteen sixty nine. And

(31:05):
this is what is going to begin my book. And
then I'm going to tell you what his Maybe I
got this from him. I didn't do it purposely. What
else is there but the truth? The truth is to
be used. The reason we don't get to the bottom
of an issue. People don't tell the truth. That's come

(31:25):
from Danny Jones. Okay, here's Jerry Spence. Tell the truth,
tell it all, tell it the way you know it.
You'd be shocked to how well it work.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
He did not believe in putting his.

Speaker 19 (31:42):
Own clients on the stand. He believed in making the
government client the government witnesses, his witnesses, and he took
some pretty heat. Had a Melda Marcos, he had Miss.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Wyoming when.

Speaker 19 (32:03):
Bob Guccioni did a nasty article about her in Penthouse,
and he said, he said, we all know mister Guccioni
over there. He's the man in the brown velvet pants
like that. Now, he won the case, but then he
lost it on appeal. And every time he did a
case like this, he wrote a book. So in case

(32:25):
he lost it on appeal, he got his money.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
So you're telling me that somebody who was here in
this area represented a Melda Marcos and Miss Wyoming in
a case against Bob Guccioni from Penhouse.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
No, not from this area. He's from Wyoming.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
Okay. I thought there was a tide of this area though,
because I saw people posted about it.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
I mean, no. He I interviewed him twice, maybe three times.

Speaker 4 (32:48):
Okay, okay, okay, I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
And.

Speaker 19 (32:52):
I just I worshiped him. I listened to his and
I didn't read his books. I listened to him, okay,
and he was great. And I wrote him a letter
and I didn't get a response before I left the
Mayor's office telling him what a profound effect he had

(33:12):
on my life.

Speaker 4 (33:14):
And uh, there are those characters, and you're gonna bring
all these out in your book, I'm sure, which we'll
get to your book here in a little bit. But
there are those characters that even though sometimes, as you
said in your case, Danny, it's just a chance encounter,
couple of interviews here, there truly have an opportunity to
make an impact on your life, more so than what
maybe your family or friends, the people you did with
every day.

Speaker 19 (33:33):
And let's keep in mind here, whatever people think about me,
I leaned leaned very slightly to the right. He leaned
pretty far to the left.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
But he is a decent guy.

Speaker 19 (33:49):
He represented Randy Weaver. You know who Randy Weaver was
of Ruby Ridge fame, and uh, he said out I
paid to represent him. He hated the Fed and you know,
he just he didn't like him. And there's plenty on
c spend. You can watch all those hearings with Jerry Spence.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
He was. He was a great man, a.

Speaker 4 (34:14):
Great man and obviously a character as well. It's nine
forty one, but Dave Island showing five at Elieve is
a broad shoe part by meex rentles at Leasting, offering
stress free property management with redders and property owners visit
meets rentals dot com. All right, so big news broke
last week. I was on vacation three days last week,
and so I'm, you know, scrolling through social media, and
I see Danny that Danny's Barbecue Stan is getting new life. Yep,

(34:39):
all right, talk about that.

Speaker 19 (34:40):
Well, I have a young man who's gonna take it over.
His name is Benjamin Noel Noel and we call him bj.
He has a restaurant in Beckley, and I'm going to
I'm backing him and because I want to see the
place open again.

Speaker 4 (35:01):
Yeah, and that's been ever since you you closed it.
And of course we were down there. We did a
live broadcast from there in the closing days. That was
the end of twenty twenty two, twenty to one. Okay,
a couple of years ago. Your your desire was to
find somebody to take it over. And that's why you
kept the decorations, all the nostalgia stuff that you kept

(35:23):
all that there because you wanted somebody Danny to come
in and to take it over and to continue your legacy.

Speaker 19 (35:29):
And I still I was working there this morning from.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
Let me see from eight.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Until one, Okay, it's eight pm last night to one
this morning, what were you doing in there picking pork, picking.

Speaker 19 (35:54):
Pork and freezing it and cleaning and yeah, and doing stuff.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
So this guy is going to take it over as
going to keep the same name. It'll be Danny's Danny's Barbecue.
Wouldn't have it any other way, right, And all the
recipes are gonna are going to be your recipes, the
same recipes. I was talking to Shockley about this a
little bit earlier, and uh, I said, you know, one
of the things and I and we ate lunch here,
you know, a couple of times a week here at

(36:23):
the here at eleven eleven. Well, one of the things
I liked about about your food, The barbecue was great,
but to me, the side dishes were just as good.
And when you would do that smoked chicken noodle soup,
that's the good stuff, buddy.

Speaker 19 (36:36):
We're trying to figure out whether they have salads or not.
Uh huh, And that's a lot of work, yeah, it is, indeed.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
So we're trying to fabout the women like the salads.

Speaker 4 (36:46):
Well, some of the guys do too. I like the salads, but.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
We're looking forward to it well open September fourth.

Speaker 4 (36:58):
And how big a part of this are you going
to be? I mean, I know you said you're backing him,
and you wanted somebody I'll work every day, So you're
going to be in there working every day.

Speaker 19 (37:07):
Now, I'm not going to get paid. He's going to
pay me a percent of the gross, of very small
percent of the gross every week to try to pay
me back some of the money that I put into it.
But if he doesn't pay it, he doesn't pay a day.
But I'm not worried about it.

Speaker 4 (37:26):
So what was it? I mean, you know that made
you want to do this again?

Speaker 19 (37:31):
He came down here and he wanted to buy some
of the equipment. I said, well don't you just let
me give you some equipment right here, right now, and
you can do it. So that's what he wants to do.

Speaker 4 (37:48):
And but what what was it in what did he
see in this? You said, he's a restaurant tour from Beckley?
What And we hadn't intended on having him on the
show today, but unfortunately he's working right now. He's trying
to get ready, which you completely uner and we'll have
him on at a future time. What did he see
in this place that made him say I want to
take this over.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
I don't know how else to say this.

Speaker 19 (38:09):
He's a fan, you know, he's he's a He's a
guy that likes me, and he likes what I do,
and he likes the food I sell and he wants
to do it himself.

Speaker 4 (38:23):
Well, it's I mean, it's I cannot tell you the
number of people that I run into Danny on a
regular basis that talk about how much they missed that
little place. And that's just one of the restaurants that
you you that you owned and ran, but that was
that was the last one, eight total. And people still
talk about they still talk about your rib place. They
still talk about the times that you, you know, we're working

(38:46):
for other people, you know, the different places, the Sterling, whatever,
wherever it was that you worked. I mean, you you
got quite a quite a legacy here in Charleston, and
I don't I don't think you're done yet.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
I like to Sterling today.

Speaker 4 (39:00):
What was it about the Sterling that made it so?

Speaker 19 (39:02):
I was young seventeen and I was the main cook.
I had the salad guy here, I had the broiler
guy here, and the salad guy had he was the
main cook, but he said get over there, and I
became the main cook. And I sit there with a

(39:24):
cigarette hanging out of my mouth the.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Way it was done back then.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
Yeah, it was done.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
And maybe a drink in your hand too.

Speaker 19 (39:32):
Saturday night we would drink from three o'clock. There was
four of us, and we would drink a bottle of whiskey,
and then we'd go down to Court Street and buy
another bottle of whiskey, a six dollars bottle of whiskey
for ten dollars, and we'd drink it, and I'd get
real hungry.

Speaker 3 (39:51):
I'd come back to the rest and eat. And I
loved it.

Speaker 19 (39:57):
And I worked nine at night till six in the morning,
and it was it was heaven.

Speaker 3 (40:03):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
How's the book coming?

Speaker 3 (40:06):
Well? You had an effect on that. Okay, you don't
even know it.

Speaker 4 (40:10):
Okay, good or bad?

Speaker 3 (40:12):
Well, I think a good effect.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
Okay, talk about it.

Speaker 19 (40:16):
You said to me, are you gonna put recipes in
the book? And I said that'll be the next edition.
And I called Charlie, Charlie Brown, and I said, Charlie,
we gotta wind this thing up. I'm seventy five, he's
eighty five.

Speaker 3 (40:36):
We got to wind it up.

Speaker 19 (40:37):
We'll do another edition, which we're not. But that's that's
how you wound it up.

Speaker 3 (40:44):
You did it.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
Oh, it's all your fault. Okay, of course everything's all
it's my fault.

Speaker 6 (40:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
Talking to for for Charles the Mayor, Danny Jones, all right,
I'm gonna.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
There's gonna be some good stories.

Speaker 4 (40:55):
I can't wait. I can't Are you gonna do an
audio version? Two?

Speaker 19 (40:59):
Well, I I talked to Dan that works over at
the newspaper. He does audio for people, and I asked
him about it. He says, if I can't do it,
but what I'd like to do is get the voices
of the different people. For instance, a guy that I

(41:21):
worked with in the UH in the filling station, n
Ined Kurt Vorhees. He's in Huntington, Richard Butler. You'd never
heard of me. If it hadn't been for Richard Butler,
nobody would have. And to get him to narrate his
part and me to narrate my part, and some of
my parts are pretty saucy.

Speaker 4 (41:46):
So nope, no pun intended. We'll get back to the
book in the restaurant a little bit. Later on, I do,
because I already had text about this this morning. I
do want to get your opinion on this.

Speaker 16 (41:57):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
It was announced over the weekend the governor that West Virginia,
along with I think it was Ohio and South Carolina,
are going to be spending sending National Guard troops into
the nation's capital to help with the crime situation there.
Crime is down in d C, but no one ever
wants to let you know the numbers interfere with stories.

Speaker 19 (42:19):
A crime is unique to the victim, right, and they
have crime in d C and they need help, but
not from us.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
They're sending in the National Guard. And I saw I
read a lot back and forth over this on the weekend.
People said, well, why is West Virginia going there? And
somebody rightfully so said, well, you know, it doesn't stop
at the borders. If there's we send National Guard people
to help with disasters in different states. I completely understand.
I completely understand that, But go ahead.

Speaker 3 (42:47):
That is different to.

Speaker 19 (42:52):
Involve ourselves in everyday criminal activity that goes on in
a district of Columbia.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
What if one gets.

Speaker 4 (43:01):
Well and they're unarmed from what I understand, and they're
going to be doing a lot of the jobs to
free up a lot of a law enforcement so they're
not necessarily going to be standing there with with with
guns in hand, you know, trying to keep people from
from the middle crimes. Uh, they're they're unarmed.

Speaker 19 (43:18):
I mean when when I remove the barrels from under
the buildings, the wooden buildings that people used to go
sit in, uh in Vietnam, and you take them out
to the elephant grass and you set them on fire.
Do you know what I'm talking about? And Uh, I

(43:41):
was unarmed, right, I had let me read a text
for you.

Speaker 16 (43:47):
Good.

Speaker 3 (43:47):
Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 4 (43:49):
I got an idea. Text says I think it's a
disgrace that our governors put in our National Guard in
the middle of DC and federal government disputes. When people
in the flooded areas need help before winter comes, they
can't get help from the state. It's ridiculous, says a texture.

Speaker 19 (44:02):
I think the National Guard's mission has changed. It's just
and putting the Marines in DC are in Los Angeles,
you know, I know where they train, you know where
they train, Steal Beach, my town. I'll be there over

(44:23):
Memorial Day weekend.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Labor.

Speaker 19 (44:27):
That's my city, Steal Beach, that's where they have a
Navy installation there, and that's where the Marines were training.

Speaker 4 (44:34):
So overall, and we'll do this and good break. You're
not a fan of what the governor announced over the weekend, you.

Speaker 3 (44:39):
Know what, I'm not going to sit here and criticize him.

Speaker 19 (44:42):
I don't know what he knows. I don't like it,
but I'm not gonna. I mean, I'm not gonna wear out.
It's not a bridge I want to burn, right, I
got it.

Speaker 3 (44:53):
I got it. If there's one I want to burn,
I'll come on here.

Speaker 4 (44:57):
And burn it.

Speaker 6 (44:59):
Burn.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
I don't get it. I just don't get it.
