It sure is Monday, hitting it now, except for Monday. Let's get to work. Please welcome your hosts. Just another manic Monday, mary and Holly. I wish it was Sunday.
Speaker 1:Good morning, it's 6.07. Yes, it's a Monday. It's going to be an unusual week because the 4th of July falls on a Thursday. It's going to be an unusual week because the 4th of July falls on a Thursday. So a lot of places, a lot of businesses. Sometimes they let their employees off for a few days. So what do you do now, with it being a Thursday? Do you take off Thursday and then come back Friday? What do you do?
Speaker 5:I wouldn't know.
Speaker 1:In radio? We don't know, because we work holidays. I work Christmas Day. Yes, we work every day.
Speaker 5:I remember walking in Christmas Day with you. Do you remember Christmas Day? Yeah, it was just such a weird because we were the only ones here. It was just an eerie kind of peaceful also? I don't know.
Speaker 1:Peaceful, as in. You didn't want anybody else here, just us, because people were talking and getting on your nerves.
Speaker 5:On your nerves. Yeah, those co-workers stuff.
Speaker 1:But there are some who you actually get the entire week of the 4th off. So if you're one of those, my question is why are you up this morning?
Speaker 5:You should not be. Hopefully you're listening to the podcast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you should be listening to the podcast Right now it's going to be. Here's what bothers me about the weather. I mean the weekend. There are so many big things like Hydro Fest. It's like every year. There's one of the two days rain and storms happened again yesterday today one day later no chance of rain, my god, yeah, okay so what's the high today?
Speaker 1:uh, 92, gonna feel like mid upper 90s, very humid. Uh, tomorrow, though here's the change mostly sunny and 90, but it's gonna be very windy. Oh, now remember about a week ago when the wind kind of cooled you down some. That's what you'll see tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's good walking weather, Yep so if you're going to be about the pool today, we'll get the cannonball forecast coming up. We'll get the forecast for the weekend For the 4th. If you're looking for some of the firework shows now, in the daytime on the 4th there's a 40% chance of rain, but for Thursday night only a slight chance. So looks like at the moment the 4th of July fireworks show should be in good shape.
Speaker 5:Good deal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this morning it's warm at 72 in Fort Payne, 73 in Gadsden and 73 here at QSP. Got to take a minute to go back to Friday. What a day we had Friday with our dog food.
Speaker 5:Yes, it was so exciting. It was so exciting to watch the whole station just buzz. It was Back and forth and back and forth and phone calls and messages and we collected over 2,000 pounds no more than that On Friday.
Speaker 1:Because we were, at like, around 18,000. Really, we thought we'll be lucky to make 20,000 today, yes, yes. So it was like 18-something Friday morning. Wow, now the total is 22 835, so we collected about 4 000 pounds in one day that's amazing.
Speaker 5:Yes, y'all are crazy that is all for a spray tan yes and you may wonder why did we pick spray tan? We don't know will just said I'll get a spray tan. We don't, don't question genius.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it worked. It worked. But the deal was around 8 o'clock or so. Will Brumbalow came in, one of our salesmen and said okay, here's the deal. If we can somehow hit 22,000 pounds of dog food, he will get a spray tan.
Speaker 5:And then I up the ante.
Speaker 1:Then, of course, you ran your mouth and jumped in and you threw my name in it and then mike allen's name. Yeah, so now, what's going to happen now? So tell them what's going to happen okay.
Speaker 5:So what's going to happen now is tomorrow. Mike works mid middays, right, so he comes in when we're done at nine. Mike is going to go at eight right, he's going to go in the morning, then you and I are going to go with the wheel with the wheel at nine yeah and we're gonna go facebook live, yeah, and we're gonna show everybody this spray tan.
Speaker 5:Now what I'm gonna post on facebook in just a minute and just say if I'm gonna take a poll on if you should do it or not, what there is this picture I'm not doing that there is this picture.
Speaker 1:I draw the line on that, let me describe it.
Speaker 5:No, there is this picture on TikTok of a guy that put stars and stripes and tape on his back, got a spray tan, peeled it off. He's left with the American flag. Just hear me out, okay, I think you should.
Speaker 1:I'm not. It's bad enough. I'm not having a spray tan.
Speaker 5:Let's do it on your legs.
Speaker 1:Let's do it on your legs, let's write out WQSB in vinyl letters On my legs.
Speaker 5:Yeah, we can do it.
Speaker 1:I'll do that, but I'm not getting an American flag on my back. Not that I'm patriotic, but no, not with a spray tan.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh well, but anyway, this is going to happen tomorrow, yep, and now we're still working out the details on all the other stuff, like payment and stuff like that Shade of brown, what we're going with. We're not going with Nutella like you suggested.
Speaker 5:I said let's go. The darkest of darks, yes.
Speaker 1:So, for those who are asking on the Facebook over the weekend why are you doing this? It doesn't make sense. No, it doesn't. No, but you should.
Speaker 5:Here's one.
Speaker 1:Does it make sense why they serve catfish at a barbecue place? I've always wondered that. Because, like in Memphis, you go to Memphis, you go to barbecue places. They got barbecue or catfish, your choice, that's it.
Speaker 5:Not here.
Speaker 1:No, but in Memphis, I'm saying some places that's the Well. I have to.
Speaker 5:Why.
Speaker 1:St Jude Because walking in Memphis. Yeah, but anyway, some things don't make sense. It just does, it just is. It just is what it is.
Speaker 5:We were just trying to get an incentive to get dog food up here and, like you said, it worked.
Speaker 1:So we will honor what happened and we will get this free tent.
Speaker 5:Yes, we will. Good job guys.
Speaker 1:We will do it, so coming up tomorrow it's going to be an unusual day. Yeah, so that's coming up tomorrow, so we'll give you more details on ways we'll get closer to it. How do you know Other things? Can you believe it's a brand new month? Yeah, six months are gone.

Speaker 5:I have to let you listen to this real quick, okay. Okay, this is a. It's not going to make any sense, but it's trending on tiktok right now. What is it? And if you would garlic break, hold on, let me raise your hand if you want the buffalo chicken wings. So he's that. So he's called Jasper the doll. Nobody knows who the voice is of this doll. It's like a Barbie doll. I'll show you in a minute. But he goes. It's a trending sound and he goes. Raise your hand if you want buffalo chicken wings. It's so funny. Where did it come from? I don't know. It's from TikTok.

Speaker 5:Ew, those get too soggy. Yeah, it might get soggy.
Speaker 1:They're okay with me. But speaking of taste, just real quick, we're going to try something later today. You let me smell the can a few minutes ago. Oh, if it tastes like the smell, it's going to be awful.
Speaker 5:Yeah, you'll have to stick around to see what we're talking about.
Speaker 1:So we have new Pringles coming up at 8 pm. What's the flavor? Real quick.

Speaker 1:How did she figure the sound? How did she know?
Speaker 5:She figured it out because she weighed herself before and after she got to work.
Speaker 1:It sucked the soul right out of her. It sucked the soul he lost a pound. It's 1.2 pounds. I did not know that. Oh yeah, 6'16".
Speaker 4:WQSB Mornings with Barry and Holly.
Speaker 1:WQSB at Chevrolet, dustin Lynch and Jelly Roll. I wonder how much seriously business that has helped the sale of Chevrolet since the song came out about a month ago.
Speaker 5:I'd be interested to know.
Speaker 1:I would think they saw an increase because I mean, hey, it's a great idea. If I'm Chevrolet, I'd say, hey, thank you, dustin, here's you a new Chevrolet. Oh yeah, here's one for you, jelly Roll. Thank you guys so much.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I don't think people just give cars away like that, though they need to. When you're in Jelly Roll and you can just buy one Sure.
Speaker 1:But they shouldn't have to, because they're giving them all this free advertising with Chevrolet. Well, it wouldn't to say, chevrolet kind of looks like Driftaways.
Speaker 5:That's where it comes from. Yeah.
Speaker 1:It kind of rhymes with Driftaway Chevrolet.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it wouldn't have the same as Mitsubishi.
Speaker 5:And my Mitsubishi, but it rolls with Chevrolet. Yeah, it does. It's a jelly roll. Yeah, I've never thought about that.
Speaker 1:So there you have it, since you've been gone. Since you've been gone, well, since you've been gone, a couple of stories. One real quick Taylor Swift, you're like the biggest fan I've ever seen.
Speaker 5:I know.
Speaker 1:There's a story coming out that some Taylor Swift fans are experiencing a blank space, as in amnesia, the day after going to one of her concerts. They can't remember some of the concert because they were just so excited. It's called post-concert amnesia and some doctors say this is a thing.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:They said that the sudden, overwhelming rush could impact your memory. Uh-huh, the emotion of the situation can mean people are so immersed in it and emotional, that the details of the event aren't as well formed as they might expect. That way, when you get home, some of the events are kind of blank. You, for you, don't remember everything that happened.
Speaker 5:That's scary read that last part yeah, it says.
Speaker 1:Interestingly, intense emotions can create more vivid memories as well, which can be known as flashbulb memories, that you remember parts of it vividly, but some parts you have no memory of it.
Speaker 5:I could see that we talked about this a little bit while we were doing show prep. Yeah, I have been so excited that I like blackout, like I've been so just overstimulated where I have had bouts.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't call it amnesia, but just like blackout moments where I'm excited Like what? Well, some of the big things you didn't go to a concert.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I've been to an Elton John. I know I was there. I know that I was just a few rows back. I could have like thrown a rock at him. Yeah, reached out and touched his coattails, rocket man, rocket man, you threw a rock at me, threw a rock at me. But I would love to remember that concert. I don't Really I remember. I remember Barry. I was so close to him. It was such a life-defining moment to see Elton John live.
Speaker 1:I can imagine.
Speaker 5:Because it was my whole life, I've loved him. My whole entire life, since I was knee high to a grasshopper.
Speaker 1:So now you don't remember some of the concert.
Speaker 5:No, I don't, and I don't even remember what city it was in, but I think it was in Nashville, maybe I'm not sure. Anyway, it was one of the best experiences of my life and I have little, very little memory of it.
Speaker 1:Well, something similar happened to me First time I met our very generous owner, mrs Currington. Oh, and when she walked in the door it was like, it was like Hallelujah, and I can tell you I don't remember much about the first meeting. It was like, oh my goodness, there's Mrs Currington, the owner. She is so generous, so generous, and she's so generous and she's so loving. And I'm actually standing here.
Speaker 4:Trying to get a raise. No, no, no, no, and this is not kissing up, I'm actually standing here Trying to get a raise.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, no, this is not kissing up, I'm being totally serious and I'm just going to try to shake her hand. I think I passed out just for a moment.
Speaker 5:You know what was sweet, though, what All seriousness like for real. You got a card this morning.
Speaker 1:I did A birthday card, a birthday card because your birthday is on. Wednesday. It does. I appreciate that. But going back to the moment, it was like angels were singing Move on. I said it's so nice to meet you generous Mrs Currington.
Speaker 5:When did you meet Mrs Currington?
Speaker 1:I don't remember, I blanked out, I don't remember the date, but I just know that moment is like, there's like it was like, and if you are listening, well, thank you and you are generous. I want you to prove it. My birthday is coming up in two days.
Speaker 5:I think we know she's generous, Barry. Okay, we'll move on.
Speaker 1:But okay, now you say you watch House of the Dragons.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I do, I love it.
Speaker 1:Do you like this better or the Game of Thrones?
Speaker 5:I like Game of Thrones better, but I love House of Dragons.
Speaker 1:I'm with you. Season one was okay. It got better. Season two is off to a great start. Gruesome start, yeah, very unusual start. I love it, but it's good. It's so dark and twisty I think it's getting better and better each episode. Now I haven't watched all of last night because I need to call HBO. They put it on at 8 o'clock. That's way too late for people who do morning shows.
Speaker 5:Yeah, why are they putting it on at 8 o'clock?
Speaker 1:Move it up to 7.
Speaker 5:I go to bed at 8.
Speaker 1:Yeah, move it up to 7.
Speaker 5:I'm going to be honest.
Speaker 1:I only got to watch half of it. Okay Now, last night. This is not a spoiler. It's something for you to look for when you go back and watch it.
Speaker 5:Oh yeah, not a spoiler.
Speaker 1:I watched about 30 minutes and had to go because it's like an hour and a half last night. That's like a movie At the very beginning, if you remember the twin nights from last week's episode Eric and Eric. Eric and Eric, Come on, Mom and Dad.
Speaker 5:How would you know if you didn't have closed? I watch it with closed caption, do you? I do okay see, when you watch it in closed captions, there's an eric with an a and there's an eric with an e and you don't, and they're identical twins, so you don't know which one is.
Speaker 1:I still don't know which one is which I know it is, but anyway I hate to spoil this. If you haven't watched them yet, but they were both killed last week. Then they at the beginning of last night's episode. Go back and look at it. Look closely. They had the the burial and it shows the two real actors laying in the bottom of the the grave and they're tossing dirt on them. Look closely at the dirt. The dirt's the key of the scene. They said that is like a tribute to the two who's off the show. They made special dirt to put on them.
Speaker 1:Okay, tell them about the dirt.
Speaker 5:Okay, so it says that it was actually made of a combination of dark, delicious desserts. Do you know what it is?
Speaker 1:I didn't, until I read this.
Speaker 5:Almost $400 worth of chocolate cake and Oreos crushed up.
Speaker 1:That was the dirt that they used 70% Oreo cookies and 30% was chocolate cake crumbled up that's crazy, that's what they're throwing on the two, and the two actors said that they had to do everything they could not to smile, laying there as all these goodies were thrown on their face in that one scene at the beginning of the show yeah, you know, you can't be mad if it goes in your mouth. No, makes you wonder why they're laying there, uh, with their mouths open wide dead, but when?
Speaker 1:I was looking at I thought that's awfully dark dirt. I guess. Yeah, that's what I thought too, but I thought it would be like part of the country where they're filming yeah, yeah, because they don't film it here nope, it wasn't that, it was a oreo cookies and chocolate cake oh my gosh, are you serious like?
Speaker 5:this is not a joke no, this is real.
Speaker 1:They it's been confirmed, and they spent almost $400 filming this episode Just for the dessert ride, because they wanted to give them a tribute, because they were two key actors who decided to leave the show, so they wrote them out, and they wrote them out by having their burial.
Speaker 5:I'm going to tell you that some of oh Wanda McGee is up so I can message doug now. Yeah, um, I love that show so much that I have it recorded and I watch half of it at bedtime, yeah, and then when I fall asleep I just fast forward it till and catch up. Yeah, so I don't want. I don't want any spoilers on the next day and you always come in and like, well, I read them, man, you're not going to believe what happened Two of the main stars get killed tonight.
Speaker 1:There's a baby with its most gruesome thing you've ever heard of.
Speaker 5:That was dark, that was awful.
Speaker 1:That was the most gruesome thing I've ever seen on TV. It really was. Anyway, if you're looking for something to watch, if you like Game of Thrones, I think you'll like House of the Dragon. It looks good, All right. 631.
Speaker 4:Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:And I appreciate everybody's thoughts here in reaching out to me, asking me if I'm going to be getting the spray tan that Holly suggests. More than likely no.
Speaker 5:Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 5:You don't want to take your shirt off, because who wants to take their shirt off on national like on Facebook Live.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 5:You know. So we can't, I mean in all reality we can't.

Speaker 1:Yeah, over $100.
Speaker 5:Wait, did you say $13 to $100? $15. $15 to $100. That's a big price jump.

Speaker 5:This is from Audrey herself. She says as you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands One is for helping yourself and the other is for helping others.
Speaker 1:We picked that one due to the fact that we had a huge month with our second-chance shelter Wolfstock promotion. People went out of their way Friday to really make sure we had a lot of dog food. 22,835 pounds of dog food is the official total. Now, keep in mind, even though our Wolfstock promotion is over, you can always stop by Second Chance Shelter and drop off food there if you'd like to Sure or make a donation a monetary, whatever you'd like to do and Doug with the Second Chance Shelter drop off food there if you'd like to Sure or make a donation a monetary, whatever you'd like to do and Doug with the Second Chance Shelter will be joining us coming up after 8.

Speaker 4:Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country, giant WQSB In my belly, come on Tell you, what we need if we're giving out free food will be some of these Reese's cups.
Speaker 1:I'd get in line two or three times. They have a new Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Okay, back guess was in the summer Picture the Reese's Cup. On the bottom layer they had like a little layer of caramel.
Speaker 5:It is the summer now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but this summer you mean last year?
Speaker 5:Last year, okay, okay.
Speaker 1:So here we are. This year they changed the caramel at the bottom and they're putting chocolate lava in the bottom. Oh, like what they put lava in the bottom, like a creamy chocolate, yes, so if you're looking at the picture on our Facebook page, it's kind of confusing. The chocolate on the top is not this is something added. But look at the bottom layer. It's the new Reese's peanut butter cups, the new chocolate lava, and they'll have a thin layer of chocolate lava, creamy chocolate, on the very bottom of the Reese's cup. So those will be out, I guess, in the next few days.
Speaker 5:Those will be so good. Yeah, well, I have good news for all of my 30-year-old babies. Yeah, watermelon Gushers are coming back to store shelves this summer for the first time since they were discontinued in 2013. I am so excited. I love.
Speaker 1:Watermelon Gushers. When did they stop making them?
Speaker 5:I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1:So it's been 11 years.
Speaker 5:Yeah, it's been a long time. It's got a sour apple in there too. So watermelon and sour apple, those do sound good, so they'll be paired together. And then this is interesting Cup of noodles. I love cup of noodles, ramen noodles like those. Or you can get the Nissin cup noodles Campfire S'mores flavor.
Speaker 1:Okay, so it's soup, but flavored like s'mores.
Speaker 5:It's ramen noodles soup and it's got. Now let me ask you this Okay. When you do your ramen, do you drain out all the liquid? No, you like the soup.
Speaker 1:I love the soup. Part of it, okay, yeah. Some people me drain out the soup and eat only the noodles.
Speaker 5:So anyway, this says that it has natural and artificial flavors. It's cup noodles at Walmart Campfire s'mores.
Speaker 1:That just sounds odd, I just don't know. So a sweet soup.
Speaker 5:If we come across this at Walmart we have to buy it.
Speaker 1:I've never tried a sweet soup before of you.
Speaker 5:No, I would try it, but I don't think that I would be like oh, I would love to eat this for dinner tonight, that's odd.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like a dessert, I guess.
Speaker 5:Like, hey honey, I don't have a honey, but hey, honey.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that would be weird.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm going to go sit outside because it stinks. That's what I would say, that's what I want. Speaking of stinking, coming up at 810, we have a new food and you brought it over to my desk this morning.
Speaker 5:And opened it up.
Speaker 1:I hope it tastes better than it smells, because it's a new Pringles. What's the name of the Pringles? What flavor?
Speaker 5:again. Oh God, it is Pringles Philly Cheesesteaks.
Speaker 1:I love Philly Cheesesteaks, yeah, but this smells like somebody passed gas in a dirty sock. That's what I'm picturing. It stinks, it does it stinks. I hope it tastes a lot better than that smell, because it smelled horrible, oh man. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 5:Scott came by and took one, because I said we're doing this for the taste test today, so we can't open them yet. But Scott said let me just try one. His face when he crunched into this I'm not excited about that.
Speaker 1:Scott is so easy. He's picky. Scott, you want to try some new food? Yup. Do you care what it is? You don't care. You want to try some Pringles? Yup.
Speaker 5:It's like Russ you want to eat a rock.
Speaker 1:Yup, you want to eat a stick.
Speaker 5:Yup, I'm going to tell you Russ next. Yep, yep, he would eat it and he would like it, because he loves hot stuff. As long as it's hot, he'll eat it.
Speaker 1:It doesn't matter what it is, but Scott tried this and I think he's having his stomach pumped right about now.
Speaker 5:He is funny because about 30 minutes later he said I still can't get this taste out of my mouth.
Speaker 4:So we'll try, coming up at 8, 10, we'll let you know at 7, 26 very, and holly on alabama's country, giant wqsb oh man mornings, come on.
Speaker 1:Man story, crime story. A minnesota woman was arrested after she allegedly threw a live tarantula at a tenant oh gee, gee, Now she rents out apartments.
Speaker 1:The incident occurred last week when Jackie Vasquez refused to leave Marissa Simonetti's property. Now Simonetti rented the property from Vasquez through Airbnb. Now Simonetti claims she was upset with Vasquez over the way she was handling herself with the other neighbors and decided to purchase a tarantula at the pet store and throw it at her. Okay, okay, so she owns this area, these businesses, these properties, and she's mad because the lady renting from her she thinks is being rude to the other tenants, the other renters, and she decides, instead of going up and talking to her and said, hey, had some complaints, you know, need you to settle down some, she decided instead because she said she saw this on Home Alone to go buy a tarantula. And she says I didn't actually throw it at her, I kind of tipped it down the stairs when she was at the bottom and I was at the top and it kind of crawled down towards her.
Speaker 1:Other woman says, nope, she threw it at me. Oh my gosh. She said I was so scared, I was just like I didn't know what to do. And so, yeah, I got this, all this spider coming at me. Then I realized it wasn't just a spider, it was a tarantula I'm googling how much does a tarantula cost?
Speaker 1:yeah, she was charged with misdemeanor, domestic assault for throwing a tarantula at someone.
Speaker 5:I did not know. That's how you spelled tarantula. How are you trying to spell?
Speaker 1:it.
Speaker 5:About $50 to $100. I did T-E-T but it's T-A-T. Gotcha Tarantula.
Speaker 1:Wouldn't it have been easier just to walk up to her and say listen, some of the other tenants here are complaining that you got your music too loud, A little bit too loud.
Speaker 5:Yeah, you've got it a little bit too loud.
Speaker 1:Yeah you're. I don't know. You're coming in and slamming doors Coming in and slamming doors, having parties. You're hanging outside, on the balcony, on the deck Hanging outside, please, just, you know, just calm it down, some no, but instead she says okay, I'm just going to went to the pet store knowing good and well what she was doing.
Speaker 5:She went in like you know what I'm gonna do today. I'm gonna buy this tarantula and I'm gonna throw it at my tenant in her face this will stop her, this will show her.
Speaker 1:No, it won't man, that's crazy. I've been mad at people before, but I've never once told I am so mad at you, I'm gonna throw a tarantula right in your head I'm gonna drop a goldfish down your throat. Whoa I don't know. Okay, okay.
Speaker 5:I think I'd rather have the goldfish than the tarantula. I would too Like. Do they bite? I don't know. I know that's such a stupid question.
Speaker 1:Scorpion sting, I guess, tarantulas bite, I guess.
Speaker 5:Okay.
Speaker 1:I one, I don't know, never had one. What do they do to you?
Speaker 5:uh, well, I have no idea, they're ugly yeah here's one that you can get a real tarantula taxidermy model for 30 on etsy so I would have got that one.
Speaker 1:That way it's not real you're not proving your point though yeah, now the point she's proven is she got arrested Misdemeanor domestic assault for throwing a tarantula on somebody Because they wouldn't settle down.
Speaker 5:I'll tell you this, barry, and I will make you a promise as long as I know you if you ever make me mad, I will never be so mad to throw a tarantula on you.
Speaker 1:What would you throw on me?
Speaker 5:A goldfish for sure, I would definitely throw a goldfish at could take, I could light that one off it would die, and then I would be sad and then it wouldn't be worth it.
Speaker 1:So I don't know, is that the best you got?
Speaker 5:I don't know, your cat scratches yeah, I might throw your cat, your own cat on you.
Speaker 1:That would be rough.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I'd throw a squirrel on you a squirrel yeah my dad had a squirrel run up his pants leg one time.
Speaker 1:Whoa yeah, whoa yeah. Goodness, is he okay, oh?
Speaker 5:yeah, he's okay, but now, like that was honestly like 20 years ago and still people bring him squirrel pictures. I bet Figurines, it was a whole thing.

I don't understand the thinking of some people here. Okay, on Monday, last Monday a man was arrested last Monday after he used fake IDs. Okay, that's not the problem, that's part of the problem. Okay, he was using fake IDs to go bail out his friend who was arrested for using fake IDs.
Speaker 5:It's a fake ID ring.
Speaker 1:It was, oh no, it was his accomplice, his accomplice was arrested in a store trying to use a fake ID and buy something. They realized this is not real, you're not that age, so they arrested him. So he called his buddy. His one phone call said hey, I got arrested, can you come help me get me out of here? He said no problem. So he pulls up to get him out using a fake ID.
Speaker 5:No, not the fake ID. How old are these kids? They've got to be kids. It doesn't say it.
Speaker 1:Yes, it's the. Don't use names because yes, they're underage. Yes, or trying to buy alcohol, whatever. So his buddy gets arrested. The Nego tried to bail him out by using another fake ID.
Speaker 5:Why? Because why Come on, man.
Speaker 1:Oh, come on If you just found out, your buddy got arrested for doing what you're about to go do. Don't go get him out. Let somebody else try to go get him out with a real ID.
Speaker 5:That is pure ignorance, is what that is is.
Speaker 1:At least the crime ring has been busted. Yeah, the two fake ideas are now put away for a while. All right, trivia missed the total a few minutes ago. We have a new total on wolfstock 2024. Our buddy, doug mcgee said, said we have 400 more pounds brought in on Friday at the shelter. It's now over 23,000. 23,235 pounds of dog food. So thank you everybody for making this one of the biggest wolf stocks we've ever had and that's going to give the shelter a chance to not have to buy dog food until at least all the way through August, that's amazing.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's all this month and next month. Yeah, they can concentrate on using the donations and the money on buying other things, like paying vet bills for the dogs who are vaccinated I'm sure they're say, or neutered rather they are yeah I guess they'd really be vaccinated that's a subject, don't cover it, yeah don't bring that up to the dogs. Yeah, but anyway, and there's like 300 dogs waiting to be adopted right now.
Speaker 5:Actually 301. That's a lot of dogs, that's a lot of dog food and it's so hot out there y'all, They've got volunteers out there sweating to death to take care of these animals.
Speaker 1:They do a great job.
Speaker 5:They do, they do such a good job, they do a great job they do.
Speaker 1:They do such a good job. Yeah, and speaking of animals, morning's animal story, if you want to see a cute video, but I don't think this is going to end very well, it doesn't say where this is I don't think it does but the video shows a woman. She looks outside, like her back door, on the deck, and there's a raccoon. A raccoon on the deck and she holds up like a to me it's a Fig Newton.
Speaker 5:She calls it a cookie. It's a Fig Newton.
Speaker 1:And the raccoon gets on its back legs and begins walking towards her, I guess doing tricks.
Speaker 5:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:Isn't that cute. It is so cute, that is cute, oh my gosh. So she gives the cookie, she calls it, to the raccoon. Okay, that's a great thing, but here's the problem. I'm seeing this rac great thing, but here's the problem. I'm seeing this raccoon is about to leave and go home and tell about 26, 27 other of its friends hey guys, if you want a free cookie, I know a place.
Speaker 1:It's right over here just over the hill let's go so tomorrow morning, when she opens that door, she's not going to have one, she's going to have about 30 raccoons oh yeah, 30s and then, when the raccoons, they're mean, and when you decide not to give the cookies to one all 30 of them they're going to grab you by the leg and they're going to slam you on the ground and body slam you and they're going to pin you to the ground until you find a cookie.
Speaker 5:You're going to have 30 cookie monsters on hand. Shoot it on YouTube. Imagine that police phone call 911, can we help you?
Speaker 1:Help.
Speaker 5:I gave one cookie to one raccoon.
Speaker 1:And that's friends are attacking me. Please bring some cookies and get them off of me. Bring more Fig Newtons, Please hurry. They're killing me. Oh my God. Yeah, but that's what's going to happen.
Speaker 5:I know.
Speaker 1:It's going to spread the word.
Speaker 5:It's probably going to be more than 30, but it's okay it than 30, but it's okay, it's going to look like something out of I don't know what was, the movies where you talk to the animals. Like you, open the door. Cinderella Snow White, snow White.
Speaker 1:And the other one with Eddie Murphy, where he talks to the animals.
Speaker 5:Dr Doolittle.
Speaker 1:That's going to be like Dr Doolittle, there's going to be animals out there. You have deer, you're going to have whatever Bears.
Speaker 5:I would love the hat. Okay, yeah, it is, isn't it At least?
Speaker 1:this one. They're going to be right in your backyard waiting on you to feed them.
Speaker 5:And you know what? I would feed them every time I would go. I would. It's so cute, it's a huge mistake but they're so cute, I know. You think cute until they're chewing on your jugular.
Speaker 1:I don't think that raccoons can rise and conquer like you think they can. You get 30 of them. They can kick your butt, they can rip apart your neighborhood.
Speaker 5:Help. It's a pack of wild raccoons chasing me. I have cookies.
Speaker 1:You thought a quiet place, those things were mean. You wait until you get 30 hungry raccoons. Come on, man 841.
Speaker 4:Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:And before we hit the road, the quote of the day, and I thought this was fitting since we had a huge month raising, actually collecting dog food for Second Chance Shelter in Boaz. The new official total is 23,235 pounds of dog food, had more sent in Friday to Second Chance Shelter and I thought this was kind of fitting for people who need to help other people out. What do you think?
Speaker 5:I do. I love this one. It comes from one of my favorites, Audrey Hepburn. She says as you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands One for helping yourself and the other for helping others.
Speaker 1:I agree, it's just a great feeling because here at QSP we love helping everyone we can, like Second Chance, shelter, st Jude. We've got a big blood drive helping out LifeSouth coming up later on this month. We do all kinds of things helping out as many as we can, and this is a good feeling to help others, because I think that's why we're all put on this earth to help other people out.
Speaker 5:I agree. I think that that's the whole meaning of life is to just take care of each other and help those around you, and maybe you can't financially or physically, but you can emotionally and mentally. That's more support than I would ever need is just somebody to be there for me.
Speaker 1:And your time. If you can help somebody out maybe help somebody, maybe a neighbor in their yard, Maybe there's someone who's unable to do things you can help them out and do something, Just doing something. It will make you feel good. You'll be blessed, I promise you. I agree, and congratulations again to Haley McArthur, our listener of the day. Thank you, Haley. We appreciate you listening.
