Speaker 1:

You know the rules, and so do I.

Speaker 3:

I listen to you guys every day, every hour, all the time. Keep it here and listen for this. Please welcome your hosts. Barry, you probably won't believe this, but I was bullied in high school for being too handsome. I don't believe you. You're right, it was for setting my crotch on fire in shop class. And holly, the english language cannot fully capture the depth and complexity of my thoughts, so I'm incorporating emoji into my speech to better express myself. Winky face, let's play this backwards and see if it gets any better. I'm gonna give you up.

Speaker 1:

Never gonna let you down. Good morning, it's 6.07. And speaking of the emojis, that's a good time. Yeah, it is W 7 and S Speaking of the emojis.

Speaker 2:

That's a good time.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it is Winky face, not the wink.

Speaker 2:

Winky face. I didn't add that on mine. Today I don't feel like winking. No, oh, here I'll wink here.

Speaker 1:

Wow, that's a wink. Looks like you're having medical issues.

Speaker 2:

Well, it's not, it's just my wink.

Speaker 1:

Are you sure I can?

Speaker 2:

Actually I did yeah.

Speaker 1:

It looks like you might want to lay down for a minute.

Speaker 2:

Let me see you, Wayne.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Oh, you can lay.

Speaker 3:

Yeah but you can't. Why do you do that?

Speaker 2:

I have to open my mouth. Why is your mouth open? I don't know. What is that supposed to look like? I don't know, I can't do it. It's like putting on mascara. I cannot put on mascara without opening my mouth.

Speaker 1:

That's odd.

Speaker 2:

I know it's just weird. I don't know, does it?

Speaker 1:

make it run faster, or what are you doing?

Speaker 2:

Run. I don't know you don't want it to run.

Speaker 1:

But what are you doing with your mouth open?

Speaker 2:

I don't know. I just put on my mascara like this and hey, listen, if you're having a hard time imagining what I look like, you won't have to wonder for too long, because we got something coming down the pipeline we do. We do something very new we may have some video coming up yeah we're talking about it.

Speaker 1:

So when you say video, it's actually like it'll be live yeah, it'll be live.

Speaker 2:

It'll be our morning show, that's scary stream live. Well, you just got to practice like you're in front of your preacher oh, I need to pretend that matt brooks is sitting right over there. Yes, and I'll pretend, john hend Brooks is sitting right over there. Yes, and I'll pretend, john Henderson. Is sitting right there with him.

Speaker 1:

And we have to be careful what we're saying.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and.

Speaker 1:

All of the air is fine.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, we do great all of the air.

Speaker 1:

Your mind says FCC, fcc, fine, fine, fine, money, money, money, get fired, get fired.

Speaker 2:

How much is it fine if I were to say a cuss word? It depends on which one. Okay, the F-bomb.

Speaker 1:

The big one, the big heavy, it'd probably take your house.

Speaker 2:

No, for real. What would they charge?

Speaker 1:

Thousands, it'd be in the thousands.

Speaker 2:

For real.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

What if you say the other F-word, the small F-word Like the?

Speaker 1:

Oh, you're fine with that one.

Speaker 2:

You're going to say that one.

Speaker 1:

You told me one time that was one of the seven deadly sins.

Speaker 2:

It was one of the ones, but now you can kind of just flip one out. I mean, there is, yeah, it's kind of like silent but deadly there, but here we are. Yeah, but speaking of emojis, I put up a facebook post this morning, but don't okay, okay, I thought we were done.

Speaker 1:

No, but this you were teasing them that something is coming soon yeah, something's coming soon and we are so excited for it.

Speaker 2:

We've got to make sure all the logistics work and we've got to figure out all the rules and regulations with the FCC, with the music, with everything. But who would like to watch us live? I don't know. We may not have any viewers.

Speaker 1:

I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, they may not want to watch this, barry.

Speaker 1:

But it would be live. Somebody walks in the room. They're on the camera.

Speaker 2:

Well, here's the thing. There's no delay in our radio, like right now, I can say anything I want to and you are going to hear it. There's no delay, there's no bleeps, there's no safety net, no, so that's how the live is going to be. We just have to remind other people. I think we'll be fine. I think it's Mike Allen's going to come. You know how he busts in here in the mornings Like Kramer. Rachel, she's going to have to watch her mouth.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. Will's good he don't do anything bad.

Speaker 2:

No, no, no Will's professional Will Of the station. Yeah, he really is, but we will have to watch what we say. But anyway, we'll go to breaks, like we'll have breaks at BRB page.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so when we're even the microphone's off, you can see what happens while the microphone is off.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, you can just watch this. It'll be like watching monkeys in a zoo. It is yeah. It'd be like putting a camera up in the zoo and just being able to log on and watch it. I don't know, I don't know if people will watch it. Don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't. I've watched other morning shows to see what they do.

Speaker 2:

I do too, and I like the visuals. I'd love to hear some feedback on this. If you guys want to shoot me a message on Facebook at WQSB, I'll read it, but I just I don't know. I'm excited about this because I feel like this is what we're headed toward it is, it's digital. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

We've heard about this for the last five years Whenever we go to seminars, you have to be more digital, whether it's on Facebook or whether it's on Instagram or whether it's on TikTok. Yeah, whether it's on Facebook or whether it's on Instagram or whether it's on TikTok, whether it's on Twitter, whatever, you've got to be part of all that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, our audience lives on Facebook, though. That's where most of our people are from Most.

Speaker 1:

But we're going to try to be part of everything, just to give you more stuff, just to try to entertain more.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, if you're not on Facebook, we're going to try to stream it to YouTube at the same time.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and, like this morning, you put up the emoji thing you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, it's funny. It was mentioned in the winky face in the show intro we have here.

Speaker 2:

I know, isn't that ironic? Yeah, we didn't even plan that.

Speaker 1:

Describe your morning using only emojis, and mine was just a laughing face and a microphone.

Speaker 2:

Oh, you are so exciting, microphone.

Speaker 1:

oh, you are so exciting well I'm not with the laughing face means it's a good morning, because it feels so good outside very it feels so it feels like fall. I know we're still weeks away, but the wind, that the way. I love wind. I don't know what it is about the when the wind blows um pay tornadoes, of course, but a lot of us love a windy day yeah and it feels so good because morning there's a nice little cool breeze blowing and the high is only 84.

Speaker 1:

Today, with a 25 mile an hour wind, it's going to be a nice day I like that and the weekend overnight lows. Saturday night and Sunday night low 50s, maybe even upper 40s. That's cold. So yeah, I'll take it though we can't just find a nice in between here we have to go from one extreme to the other.

Speaker 2:

Okay, can I read my emojis? Yeah, what are your emojis?

Speaker 1:

I'm trying to see them here Mine are sparkly. Oh, I thought that was a chicken.

Speaker 2:

No, it's not a chicken. What it don't even look like a chicken.

Speaker 1:

I'm sure it's a glare.

Speaker 2:

You need to have your glasses checked, I do. There's spark gaming today you do.

Speaker 1:

And what's that in that cup of coffee?

Speaker 2:

Cup of coffee. I'm on my second cup. Oh my goodness, heart, hands, because I love our audience.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'll say that and in love.

Speaker 2:

I'm full of love today.

Speaker 1:

That's good.

Speaker 2:

I'm just in a loving mood, okay.

Speaker 1:

Everybody needs to be. Oh yeah, just be happy today. Yeah, let's just have a good day. So, if you you know there's a lot of things you need to know today, how do you know it's Wednesday, september the 4th, halfway through another work week, which is a short week for some because of Monday being a holiday. So what is going on? What do we need to know and need to think about today?

Speaker 2:

Today's important day. It is National Baby Back Ribs Day.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I love ribs. I want my baby back baby back, baby back, yes, yes, Remember what was that Chili's Was?

Speaker 2:

that the one. Yeah, chili's Baby back, yep.

Speaker 1:

That was like iconic.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they made fun of it in Austin Powers Remember.

Speaker 1:

Yep, yep With fat. You know what?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, can't say it. The character.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but anyway. Yes, I love ribs. What about barbecue sauce?

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, I love barbecue sauces. So do you know where the baby back capital in the United States is True?

Speaker 1:

I don't know, it's Memphis, I believe that.

Speaker 2:

Yes, it's Memphis.

Speaker 1:

If you ever go to Memphis, you've got to have barbecue.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think I've seen that on those travel channels where people go and eat different things.

Speaker 1:

It's one of the biggest barbecue competitions in Memphis, the. I think so.

Speaker 2:

Where people go and eat different things. Some of the biggest barbecue competitions are in Memphis. The top-selling barbecue sauces are number three Kraft they have a lot of different flavors.

Speaker 1:

Like what Like honey, garlic, parmesan, there's like your sweet brown sugar. Oh yeah, things like that.

Speaker 2:

Okay, I do like the brown sugar that is my favorite, yeah, good and sweet. Number two is Stubbs.

Speaker 1:

Stubbs is good. Never heard of it. It's good. But I look at number one here and I totally agree.

Speaker 2:

Sweet Baby Race is number one.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they have many flavors and it's cheap too.

Speaker 2:

It is. It's affordable. Yeah, it's affordable. Here's something you need to know. This really kind of blew my mind Will. Fortune producers are eyeing Kim Kardashian as a replacement for Vanna White.

Speaker 1:

No. Vanna White no.

Speaker 2:

Yes, no, yes, I know You're hearing me right. Vanna's expected to step down in the next two years and Kim is the top name being tossed around.

Speaker 1:

I can't picture this, because usually if you see one of them, you see the whole family. Are they going to have her and all the sisters out there Like Kim Kardashian? I don't know it's like her and all sisters you're gonna be out there, be out there turning letters and then get into a fight. Then they're gonna start throwing letters, but throwing the f word around on the f letter around and it's gonna be.

Speaker 1:

It's gonna be mad chaos yeah, chaos. Well, she already knows how to spin every headline yeah, I don't see her being the one that goes over and touches the letter. I think she'll probably have people yeah, she'll stand'll stand to the side and say go touch that one, that one, go touch the F that one, while she's texting on her phone or tweeting whatever she does, so it may be her and Ryan Seacrest eventually.

Speaker 2:

That would be a dynamic duo.

Speaker 1:

That's a big change from Pat Sajak and Vanna to more Seacrest and Kim Kardashian.

Speaker 2:

So that is probably the most pop culture-ish thing you could do to the Wheel of Fortune. That would be crazy, that would be.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so we'll see if it happens.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and then it was a sad day yesterday, oh, what happened. Well, I had a contest in my house.

Speaker 1:

No, a contest.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, a contest. That's weird Between my couch, my washing machine and myself. Okay To see who had more money.

Speaker 1:

And I finished third.

Speaker 2:

I finished dead last.

Speaker 1:

My couch had the most. Yeah, washing machine had 45 cents.

Speaker 2:

And then there's me. That means you had less than 45 cents. Yeah, but luckily today's payday.

Speaker 1:

That is sad Because you'll have $10.45 later today.

Speaker 2:

Sure will.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, dream big. I always say at 616.

Speaker 3:

Mary and Holly On Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.

And Bring your Own Bid to Retail. We'll be doing that coming up tomorrow morning. Other We'll be doing that coming up tomorrow morning. Other things going on this morning A lot of stuff. Well, there's some crazy stories. Crazy stories and I remember hearing this back months ago. They were claiming I don't know how they even thought about this, but I think it's Vladimir. Vladimir, it's a whale, it don't matter if you mess the name up.

Speaker 2:

It's a whale. Okay, because I'm going to mess it up. It's a whale. It don't matter if you mess the name up, it's a whale. Okay, because I'm going to mess it up.

Speaker 1:

It's not like it's going to get its feelings hurt.

Speaker 2:

But it's a big beluga whale.

Speaker 1:

There is speculation over the past few years that this whale was a Russian spy.

Speaker 2:

Yes, the whale Yep, and he was found dead recently under suspicious circumstances.

Speaker 1:

Yes, okay, so he would frequent. He would visit the Norwegian coast. Loves humans.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And they feel that this whale was somehow being used by Russia as a spy. This is funny to me, oh come on. How can you use a whale? I know they claim that dolphins, they can put cameras on them and they can do stuff as far as military exercises, but a whale as a spy?

Speaker 2:

now they're saying uh, found dead under suspicious circumstances yeah, and animal rights organizations stepped in and they're investigating. They say that, vladimir, it's got an h I know, vladimir the whale the whale. It was not a natural death.

Speaker 1:

No, the only way I would kill this whale the only way I would think there would be suspicious was if you found it in the billiard room with a candlestick in its head and colonel mustard nearby, then I would say, ah, there's something weird about this colonel mustard with the candlestick, and if you find the whale in the billiard room or the conservatory or whatever, then that's suspicious yeah, if it's laying the whale belly up, I say it's a whale?

Speaker 2:

yeah, here's my question. If you think kind of deep about this, yeah, who was like? Oh, oh no, there's a dead whale. Oh, that's vladimir. That's suspicious. Oh, that's suspicious. Somebody called the animals.

Speaker 1:

Organization. We think it might have drowned. It drowned. That would be suspicious, though, if that's what they're.

Speaker 2:

That would be suspicious. They've ruled out drowning. Yeah, they definitely have ruled out what else? A reality star, Amy Slayton you may just know her as Amy from A Thousand Pound Sisters Did you ever watch that?

Speaker 1:

I've never seen this. Is it show on?

Speaker 2:

Yes, I'm absolutely fascinated by this show. It's junk TV, it's not good. But she, let me just tell you a story. Amy was arrested, or no? She was treated for a camel bite. A camel bite, barry. She got bit by a camel.

Speaker 1:

You don't hear that very often.

Speaker 2:

Amy got bit by a camel. You don't hear that very often. Amy got bit by a camel.

Speaker 1:

Where was she at?

Speaker 2:

At the Tennessee Safari Park Before she was arrested on drug charges.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay, what was she doing to the camel?

Speaker 2:

It wasn't actually the camel, let me tell you. The sheriff's department found what appeared to be mushrooms and marijuana in her car, so she was charged with possession of illegal substances. What I read yesterday while I was waiting at the eye doctor I was reading all the dirty laundry on this All the gossip. It wasn't the camel bot that gave them a heads up. It was the odor from the car with their kids in it. Barry, oh no.

Speaker 1:

Yes, with their kids in the car. Smoking weed with their kids in the car, like smoking weed with their kids in the car. That's bad. Yeah, that's bad.

Speaker 2:

And you don't need to be eating mushrooms and driving your kids around. It doesn't make you see stuff, no.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so the police showed up because she was bit by a camel. Yeah, is she okay? I don't know Apparently it doesn't say she was hospitalized.

Speaker 2:

It doesn't say that Do camels have teeth?

Speaker 1:

Yes, they do.

Speaker 2:

Don't they spit.

Speaker 1:

I think, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

It's bitter.

Speaker 1:

It could have been worse.

Speaker 2:

She got close enough to a camel for it to bite her Back up, Amy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it could have been worse. It could have kicked her with its toe. I mean you don't know. She's okay, though she's around.

Speaker 2:

So what else you got? What Go ahead. You got me with the camel and the toe.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't have expected that. I'm just trying to picture what happened here. Yeah well, I don't know, Maybe the toe was involved.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, maybe the toe was involved. I don't know. The growing trend in restaurant these days is dining alone.

Speaker 1:

In a way that's sad, but you know, sometimes you just want some quiet time.

Speaker 2:

Well, you and I are both single.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Do you ever go out and dine alone?

Speaker 1:

No, I don't either If.

Speaker 2:

I do. It's looking at me I know, never a restaurant no.

Speaker 1:

A fast food place, yeah, maybe occasionally, but not a restaurant no.

Speaker 2:

Other people love having the idea of private time to themselves, not checking the phone and enjoying a good meal. It says that solo dining reservations have risen over 29% the past two years.

Speaker 1:

Do you think it started when COVID it says last, two years Last?

Speaker 2:

two years, I guess, so it started back around the time. Yeah, I guess.

Speaker 1:

Because you wanted to be away from other people, so you all had your own table.

Speaker 2:

When I'm out and I see somebody sitting alone, I never think twice about it. I notice them, because I notice people. There's a fly, I notice people as I walk by, but I never think anything negatively about them, like you don't go oh well, kind of, kind of, but I don't think, oh, look at them, they're about. No, but that's what I feel like people do to me when I'm eating out. I feel like people look at me and they're like ooh she's alone. Ooh, she's alone.

Speaker 1:

Ugh, she must be hard to get along with.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1:

Nobody can put up with her. Oh, it's sad, I know.

Speaker 2:

You can't even have a meal with her.

Speaker 1:

Give her some tip money or something hey yeah, come, give me some of that money. Give her the rest, so that's a big thing now.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that's a big thing, Dining alone All right 631. Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly Good.

Yes, it's a nice restaurant. It shows the family. You can see a picture of the family on her Facebook page. They're sitting at the dinner table and the camera shows them finishing their meal. And then the mother of the family then pulls out some kind of container and empties a roach onto her plate and then calls the manager over and then outraged so they were able to leave without paying. The video's now gone viral on X and some users have come forward saying I bet they pull this often, often yes, not just one time.

Speaker 1:

Okay, gotcha.

Speaker 2:

We would have people and I'm not kidding pull out their own hair. No, put it on the food when they're done and they're going to eat as much as possible. I'm doing air quotes here. You can't see me, but I'm doing air quotes. They didn't find the hair until after they got done eating what are the odds of that? Well, one time it was a blonde hair I was a brunette. The I was a brunette.

Speaker 1:

Right.

The server was a brunette. Oh, all the guys in the kitchen had on hairnets, but they had short black hair. Sure, this was the longer hair.

Speaker 1:

So it wasn't anybody at Jefferson's.

Speaker 2:

It wasn't anybody at Jefferson's. Somebody did it, that is so I'm telling you, and it happens more than you would think it would. I'm being honest.

Speaker 1:

But the cockroach thing, so she had to bring that with her. So where did she go to get this?

Speaker 2:

I mean, she probably picked it up at her house and was like, hey guys, it's time to go out to eat again. I found another one. It's time and the kids say, yay, Mama, I found a cockroach.

Speaker 1:

Yay, we can go eat free now. Yay, hey order something big kids, because we're eating free tonight.

Speaker 2:

Yep, and I would comp the meal like if there was a hair, because I mean, how can you? I can't be like, sorry, sir, this does not match us yeah.

Speaker 1:

Do a DNA test. We've just brought in CSI and we did a little and we have proven that you, sir, are responsible for that hair.

Speaker 2:

I'm telling you it happens though.

Speaker 1:

I believe it.

Speaker 2:

Now I'm shocked about the roach. That really grosses me out, Just to get a free meal. Just to get a free meal. That's wrong. It is so wrong and, like the story says, I would put what is it saying? Dollars to dimes, or something, Something yeah. I would put my last bottom dollar that they have done this multiple times.

Speaker 1:

Yes, yeah, it didn't just come to them in a dream, and they did it the next day. They've been doing it often, yes, and now they're teaching the kids.

Speaker 2:

They're teaching the kids. It's okay to do that. That's so wrong. Don't teach your kids to scam, my goodness Come on man, it's 644.

Valerie Bertinelli joins Lifestyle expert for the fifth season I still wonder why the food?

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

She's wonderful.

Speaker 1:

She was on the kids' cooking show as one of the judges' hosts and they got rid of her. I think she's great. I love her.

Speaker 2:

I'm really excited about this Production on. The long, very, very long-delayed third season of Euphoria is nearly right around the corner. I'm so excited and Sydney Sweeney is teasing her comeback, saying she's excited to turn to the role she played. Now I will say this she's not the best actress in the world, but her role in Euphoria is perfect for her.

Speaker 1:

What do you think it's taken so long to do a third season? How long has it been? A couple of years?

Speaker 2:

Well, angus Cloud died. Has it been about two years? Well, angus Cloud died, ah, and has it been about two years? Yeah, it's been about two years, and so they had to rewrite the season with him out of it. Okay, because at the end of it I don't know. Did you watch Euphoria?

Speaker 1:

I'll tell you what. I'll be honest. Okay, I watched one episode because I couldn't watch anymore the the drugs. It was so, wow, almost depressing seeing all the drug use, yeah, and thinking this is kind of real, I know, and what they're portraying. So, yeah, I couldn't take more than one.

Speaker 2:

It was a little too close to home.

Speaker 1:

It was, it was yeah.

Speaker 2:

Well, they showed at the end of the second season Angus Cloud's character and his little dude that he carries around, with him getting shot at and then it kind of cut off. So I guess he's going to be shot. I bet you're right.

Speaker 1:

So there will be a season two, probably sometime next year. We'll see it. Yeah, because he died, that's so sad Gotcha yeah.

Speaker 2:

One drink at the US Open Tennis Tournament. This year is the real winner the Honey Deuce cocktail.

Speaker 1:

What is that?

Speaker 2:

Well, it is a $23 cocktail that's made with Grey Goose Vodka, lemonade, raspberry Liqueur and Honey Dew Melon Balls which look like tennis balls.

Speaker 1:

I've seen some of the people in the crowd with these. They're cute. I mean the ten little tiny tennis balls that they look like. They're cute. I mean the ten little tiny tennis balls that they look like. But they're saying that they've made over $10 million from selling the drinks alone at the tournament.

Speaker 2:

Just the drinks. They made $10 million and, like I said, it's vodka, lemonade, raspberry and honeydew.

Speaker 1:

Wow, that's a lot of alcohol right there.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 2:

Are you ready, scala? Yes, okay. Your friend describes his friend as Sigma. Does that mean that he's weird or super cool? I would say super cool. You are right, ding ding ding. That is correct. There's one right there, all. You are right, ding ding ding. That is correct. There's one right there, all right, all right. Your friend is described as a Rizzler. Does that mean that he is loud, flirty, likes to steal, or he's late? Say the second option again, please. Flirty, like you know. Flirt holding hands.

Speaker 1:

The second one. Okay, oh, you know, flirt holding hands. The second one. Oh you got it? Yeah, it is, it's flirty, it's flirty.

Speaker 2:

Okay, your quiz skills are looking skibbity. That means they're either impressive, bad, awkward or a joke, or all of the above, all of the above. It or all of the above, all of the above.

Speaker 1:

It is all of the above Good job.

Speaker 2:

You may not know this one. This is the one that I missed. Your favorite snack has just been phantom taxed. Have you ever heard of phantom tax? Is it stolen, or was it dipped in chocolate? Stolen, stolen, you got it Another one.

Speaker 2:

You got it. Never heard of that one. Wow, okay, all right, this is called. Let me skip this one. Let me skip that. That one's weird. Okay, the next one you prepare to take a photograph, a picture, and you start mewing M-E-W-I-N-G. Does that mean you meow like a cat, you make your face skinnier or you smile with your eyes?

Speaker 1:

The second option yes, make your face skinnier Another one.

Speaker 2:

All right, last one, skyla, you've done great. Your friend describes your outfit as so Ohio. Ohio means cringe, stylish or expensive, stylish it means cringe, cringe. You almost won them all.

Speaker 1:

That is close enough to get a t-shirt.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, definitely got a t-shirt, skyla, you did great, thank you. So do you use any of these words?

Speaker 1:

well, very good. Well, scally, it's been great having you on the radio. Uh, just tell me, tina, to come out sometime soon and get you your t-shirt, okay you're right, yes, yes well, great, well, hope you have a great day at school. Skyline, thank you so much for being on the radio with us. Okay, thank you, you're welcome. Thank you, uh, how do they, these words come up? I don't know like okay who thinks of these words?

Speaker 2:

let me just tell you this the term ohio yeah was originated from memes that were only in Ohio that were cringe, I don't know. It means weird cringe or random.

Speaker 1:

But who?

Speaker 2:

thinks of these words? I don't know, because my kids combine them. They're like skibbity-rizz, ohio. I'm like what? What did you just?

Speaker 1:

say I have no idea. All right, we need a quote, and this is something you saw on TV.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I saw this online actually.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

But I saw the TikTok of it it was a video While doing press for their new movie, for Beetlejuice 2, you know, jenna Ortega and Winona Ryder they're both in it.

Speaker 1:

Love them both.

Speaker 2:

Well, they were standing with co-star Catherine O'Hara for photos. Winona Ryder was wearing sunglasses and the photographers kept hounding her to take them off. They kept saying Winona, without the sunglasses, take them off Right. So she felt uncomfortable but she continued to smile. At one point she reaches up to her glasses and she starts to mess with them, like she's going to take them off, but she doesn't want to. So Jenna Ortega here's the quote of the day touches her arm and says no, you don't have to. And I think that that's such a powerful, direct quote no, you don't have to. A 21-year-old is telling a 52-year-old you don't have to. And it was such a powerful message because there's so much criticism of younger generations. But this woman is saying you don't have to do anything you don't want to do. You don't have to make yourself always accessible. You don't always have to say yes if it makes you uncomfortable. You don't always have to go with the unnecessary demands. You don't owe anyone anything.

Speaker 1:

And the press, the paparazzi, were trying to pressure her into doing something they wanted and she didn't feel comfortable. Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 2:

I like that too. So the quote today is no, you don't have to.

Speaker 1:

No, you don't. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, your best option is to say no.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm not going to do it.

Speaker 3:

That's right, yep, all right. 7-17. Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly Come on man Mornings.

Speaker 1:

Come on man story. I know people. There are still people who wear the mask and there's still some COVID popping up from time to time. I know there's been quite a few cases over the past couple of months, so it's still around. I think it's personally going to always be around. It's a type of flu that's going to be here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I'm hoping it never gets as bad as it did back what four years ago. But the masks are still there and you still see people from them and it's your choice whatever you want to do. But there's a new mask coming out and you think we need this. It's called the EB Care Mask. Scientists at the California Institute of Technology have created this smart mask. It's a smart mask. Here's what it does it analyzes your breath for many reasons and tells you many things.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

It'll tell you if you have COVID.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's convenient.

Speaker 1:

It'll tell you it's useful for patients with asthma, with COPD. It tells you if you've been drinking, if you've had too much alcohol oh wow. And it also tells you if you have bad breath.

Speaker 2:

Oh no.

Speaker 1:

It does it all.

Speaker 2:

I wonder what it says. If you get it, I don't know, does it?

Speaker 1:

If it's good, is it ding, ding, ding Does it shoot like a little squirt of breath pressure in your mouth. I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Thank you, oh, thank you so much. Smart mask, that smart mask was so worth it.

Speaker 1:

But isn't that weird, I wonder how much these cost. Does it say but come on, man, do you need something to help? You know that you have bad breath. What do you think?

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

Some Something to help you know that you have bad breath. What do you think? Yes, some people don't know. Maybe sometimes you've had something for lunch and you don't think about it and it gives you bad breath.

Speaker 2:

Well, right now I've had two cups of coffee.

Speaker 1:

Coffee breath yeah.

Speaker 2:

And so I know I need to freshen myself up. Some would call it dragon breath. Oh, is coffee breath dragon breath? Is it that bad?

Speaker 1:

I'm not saying it's bad, but I'm saying there was a mosquito flying around earlier and it's no longer flying around it's dead.

Speaker 1:

Right there in front of you it's laying on the desk. You killed it. It's just coffee. You shut it down. Well, according to the mosquito, it's deadly. No, so what do you think? What foods give you the worst breath that people can eat? Garlic Garlic eat, because, like garlic garlic, somebody has italian onions. What else? I'll tell you what mother used to, when me and the friends would go eat like a mater's pizza on a friday night. The next morning she could come in the room and say you had mater's pizza. I said how do you know? She says it's just oozing out of your skin. Uh-huh, the onions and all of it the garlic, if I can tell it's so good though it is.

Speaker 1:

I love garlic, but it's like this comes out of your pores, but like so your breath.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, anything, I'd say anything italian oh yeah, gives you some horrible breath yeah, it does, but but there's a lot of italian places that offer mints yes after your meal the last time I went to olive garden it's been months ago.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they didn't have them. Have they stopped? Have they stopped? I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Those are my favorite mints.

Speaker 1:

These like Andes.

Speaker 2:

Andes, yeah, how dare they.

Speaker 1:

They're chocolate mints. I mean, you've already paid enough for a house payment for eating the food, like Angelique's gave me a free mint.

Speaker 2:

Like Giovanni's. They have a basket of mints waiting there for you at the register. I think that's handy. I do too. I think it's a good idea.

Speaker 1:

Now some people say you have salad breath. Is that true Salad breath?

Speaker 2:

Is that?

Speaker 1:

from the dressing. You think Ew.

Speaker 2:

I would think so, and the croutons it would have to be, and the onions and the 47 other things you put on from the salad bar.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, let me tell you a funny one.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

We were at Food City a grand opening back it was in Albertville back a few years ago and they have the hot bar area in there. You walk in there and you can fix your plate and the salad area it's by. They weigh it and there was a guy.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

There was a guy. We were standing there at the front and come walking by. I said, man, I wasn't expecting that. I said what happened. He said, well, it says over there it's like a certain price. He said I didn't realize it meant by a pound, because this thing was piled up so high, the lid wouldn't close and it must have cost him probably about $20 because it was like a double-decker plate and he didn't realize they were going to weigh it. He thought it was like this by a plate. I guess he saw another sign and thought it was like $7.50.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't know where he got it, oh no, when I played it.

Speaker 1:

His was probably like $20-something For a salad. The lid wasn't even closed. He had so much fun. Oh no, so when they waited, he said I wasn't expecting that.

Speaker 2:

Oh, my God too. Yeah, I think like sour cream and onion chips. Ooh, that's really bad breath, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Doritos. Oh bad breath yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like the Cool Ranch. Yeah yeah, they can knock the top of your head off.

Speaker 2:

But I'll be honest, even though I'm guilty, I think that coffee breath is the worst.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. I don't drink coffee, so I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Well, what about people that drink coffee and talk in your face? Yeah, Is that bad?

Speaker 1:

Yeah it is. It is.

Speaker 2:

It's awful.

Speaker 1:

If you ever experience me shortening the conversation, you probably got bad breath. I'm trying to get out of there, yeah, before my hair falls off.

Speaker 2:

Oh Lord, yeah, you don't want your eyebrows singed, oh not over your breath.

Speaker 1:

No, it's 743.

Speaker 3:

Mary and Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.

Speaker 1:

Holly's Knowledge Nuggets Things you need to know, whether you know it or not. What have you got today?

Speaker 2:

All right. 71% of Americans are guilty of procrastinating. Do you procrastinate?

Speaker 1:

I'd say no. I feel like I want to get it done now. I want to get it done, taken care of, because I feel like if I don't, I'm going to forget about it and I'm going to end up missing it and not getting it done. What about you? You are Because you just procrastinated with the answer.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I know, I know.

Speaker 1:

You didn't make the answer.

Speaker 2:

I didn't even tell the answer on a timely fashion. 50% put off tasks by watching TV.

Speaker 1:

Okay, what do you do when you say you've got laundry to do and you don't want to do it, so what do you do in place of doing the laundry?

Speaker 2:

I'm part of the 29% that takes a nap. I take a nap.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

But, to be fair, I wake up really early. Sure, that's true. Yeah, that's true. 39% just lay in bed. They just lay in the bed. Oh, and then 42% of us procrastinate by scrolling through social media. Ah it says Americans would rather eat, drive or go for a walk rather than tackle their to-do list.

Speaker 1:

I think it depends on what the list is. Yeah, like, if it's get up and go to work, then I go to work. If it's like, okay, you got a mother yard or you've got to watch the car or do something, I yeah. Or maybe go to the gym, yeah, I'll watch a little tv, then I'll look online look on my phone, then I'll finally go do it, yeah that's a little different.

Speaker 2:

So like if I have laundry to do, it says that one of the most popular things is I love to go for a walk yeah sure but I would much rather nap. Because, you need the exercise, but I need the exercise, but it's too much work. My couch is so comfy.

Speaker 1:

I get you Yep Okay.

Speaker 2:

When it comes to favorite desserts, cake is number one at 32%. Do you like cake?

Speaker 1:

I do, but I'm going to say I like pie better than cake. Okay, I love a good key lime pie or a strawberry pie.

Speaker 2:

Ice cream is number two of our favorite desserts at 21%, cupcakes are number three, then cookies and then, at the bottom of the list, is pie.

Speaker 1:

Oh, so what about you? Which is your favorite dessert?

Speaker 2:

I don't like any of these.

Speaker 1:

None of those.

Speaker 2:

No, I really don't like dessert. Oh, I really don't like any of these. None of those. No, I really don't like dessert.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I really don't have you ever seen me have dessert. Not really Ever, I really haven't. So if you had to have one, your life depended on it. Okay, which one would you say? Okay, well, bring me that.

Speaker 2:

Am I going off this list?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, of those five things, Either cake, ice, ice cream, cupcake cookie or pie.

Speaker 2:

Cupcake, cupcake, yeah, I would take a cupcake.

Speaker 1:

The big, tall icing. That's the minute you take a bite it gets in your eyebrows.

Speaker 2:

It does, don't it, it does.

Speaker 1:

You've seen the ones.

Speaker 2:

I've seen them.

Speaker 1:

I love it, I love them, but, man, they get all over you.

Speaker 2:

How do you okay? So Harlow showed me this really, Take a cupcake. Okay, you take the bread.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Cut it in half. Okay, take the bottom half. Put it on top of the cupcake you have a cupcake sandwich Sandwich.

Speaker 3:

That is a good idea.

Speaker 2:

That is smart, isn't it? I like that. Yep Harlow taught me that.

Speaker 1:

Good move, it's 7.53.

Speaker 3:

WQSB Mornings with Barry and Holly. I am serious and don't call me Shirley.

Speaker 1:

Totally serious. Now Mountain Time or Central Time, of course Mountain Time Mountain Dew is teaming up and doing something tying in with the Mountain Time Zone. I think this is a great idea.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

They're going to do something called Do the Dew a Step Further. They claim that Mountain Time is the official unofficial time zone of Mountain Dew and they want to capitalize on the fact. A recent study shows that people who live in the Mountain Time zone are statistically 6% more cheerful than the average American.

Speaker 2:

Really.

Speaker 1:

I don't know about that, but that's what they claim. So here's what they're doing. They want to encourage you to sign up by going to Welcome to MTtnt, which is mountain timecom. Then, if you cross the time zone into mountain time, you can get a free mountain dew. You can go to any store that has mountain dew and then you can show them the website and it proves that you're in that location.

Speaker 2:

You get a free mountain dew so you have to go to the mountain times?

Speaker 1:

yes, you have to be in the mountain time zone to get your free mountain dew.

Speaker 2:

How far of a drive is that for us?

Speaker 1:

I'm trying to think of which state that would be. You can look it up. It's probably like Colorado, that area it's before you get to Pacific. Look up Mountain Time Zone. Okay, it'll probably show you a line, it will. It'll probably be looking at. I typed it in.

Speaker 2:

Okay, it should show you a line somewhere, and now I have a chart.

Speaker 1:

Oh, can you read the chart? Is it showing you a map?

Speaker 2:

I'm looking. I'm looking. This is a lot of pressure on me right now.

Speaker 1:

They didn't put names on the chart, they didn't. You just haven't looked at it. Oh wait, here we go.

Speaker 2:

I got one right here. Mountain is Idaho, montana, wyoming Colorado, new Mexico, arizona and Utah there you go. Please be very impressed with me because I was reading off state abbreviations.

Speaker 1:

That's tough.

Speaker 2:

I know it is tough, like MT had to be like huh it's tough.

Speaker 1:

It's tough, yeah, but you can get a. That's cool. Get them out and do it. But here's a really really you ready, yeah, when you say really, really, really. I've learned here at this station.

Speaker 2:

That means a lot.

Speaker 1:

It's really important, yeah, it is Because, like somebody says, it's going to be very, very, very cold.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that means super cold. Put on a jacket, yeah.

Speaker 1:

But what they're doing is they're also going to give five people they're the first five people who sign up and then actually move into Mountain Time Zone.

Speaker 2:

Of all of the states Arizona, new Mexico, colorado, utah, wyoming, idaho, mountain, montana which one are you picking?

Speaker 1:

Where's Yellowstone filmed? Montana? That's where I want to go.

Speaker 2:

That's where you want to go. Yeah, what do you think? I would go to Colorado.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay, we'd be close to being neighbors. Yeah, oh, got you. Yeah, that's what you're saying. Yeah, that was me whistling, yeah you can't whistle I can't yeah. When you try to whistle it's like the Roy on. Let Me Find you.

Speaker 2:

Whistle.

Speaker 3:

Whistle.

Speaker 1:

Yep, that's me, yeah, from Ted Lansdowne willing to move to Mountain Time Zone. They're going to pay their moving costs up $10,000.

Speaker 2:

I'm going back to the statistics of 6% more cheerful. Did they pass out a survey among all of the mountain timers that said on 1 to 10, where is your cheerful land? Yeah, on this smiley face On this chart.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like they're in the hospital. Where's your pain level, sir? Are you feeling?

Speaker 2:

more cheerful, less cheerful. So Alabama is probably like zero, cheerful Probably. And then the Pacific. I don't even know where they land, I don't know, but all we know is mountain people are 6% more cheerful.

Speaker 1:

But you mentioned Colorado. It makes me wonder how many of these states over there are selling weed.

Speaker 2:

Well.

Speaker 1:

How many of them in the Mountain Time Zone are selling weed?

Speaker 2:

Probably all of them.

Speaker 1:

So yeah, that makes more sense. Okay, that makes more sense. All right, now we've got to move on. The world's been waiting on this. You've been bringing out some amazing jokes. You did the knock-knock joke yesterday. People on our podcast, they loved it. So yesterday, people on our podcast, they loved it. So now we're going to. Today is baby back rib day. I want to put some pressure on you. Do you have any good baby back rib humor.

Speaker 2:

No, I just what. I don't know. I've thought about this and thought about this and I can't. Later on today I was going to celebrate it. I can't decide whether to grill chicken breast or chicken thighs that celebrate it. I can't decide whether to grill chicken breast or chicken thighs, that's tough. I'm just going to wing it, okay.

Speaker 1:

So you do have baby back ribs, at least. Barbecue jokes, barbecue jokes.

Speaker 2:

And the other night I accidentally burned dinner on the grill.

Speaker 1:

Oh no.

Speaker 2:

Mistakes were made. Mistakes, mistakes made.

Speaker 1:

Mistakes, mistakes, gotcha Mistakes. Alright, one more.

Speaker 2:

I got a joke for you. Okay, what do you call a row of dolls burning on a grill?

Speaker 2:

Thank you. Thank you, yeah, it's 814.

Speaker 1:

Crime story. Why can't some people just say you know, I messed up, I made a mistake, it was my fault. A woman in Indiana. She says well, she stole a vehicle with a child inside, oh, Lord. Yeah, she pulled a woman out of the car by her hair while attempting to hitchhike to Evansville, but anyway, she now claims the police caught her child's fine and she says here's why she did it that Kanye West telegraphically told her to, Telepathically, Telepathically told her to do this to steal a car.

Speaker 1:

And she doesn't know Kanye personally never met him, he doesn't know her, but she claims that she could just feel it, that he was talking to telling her you might still call her, you might.

Speaker 2:

I guess he was singing it maybe we've got to get these people checked in somewhere. This is this is scary.

Speaker 1:

She's now charged with attempted kidnapping and attempted auto theft. Luckily it didn't happen. They're able to stop her, but she's claiming that kanye west okay, so it does say telegraphically.

Speaker 2:

What's the difference between telegraphically and telepathically?

Speaker 1:

no idea, I have no idea hey siri yeah define telegraphically.

Speaker 2:

okay, I found this on the web for Define Telegraphically. Yeah, check it out.

Speaker 1:

We're trying.

Speaker 2:

It says in a short and concise manner that relates to messages being sent in a telegraph system.

Speaker 1:

Okay. Did she think that would get her free? Set her free.

Speaker 2:

Did she get out her Ouija board and it was like steal a car.

Speaker 1:

And of all the people, Kanye West.

Speaker 2:

Kanye, come on now. I mean, he's done some crazy things in his lifetime.

Speaker 1:

I Kanye West, kanye, come on now. I mean he's done some crazy things in his lifetime. I really don't think he's ever going to say hey.

Speaker 2:

Holly, you need to sell a car. Yeah, make sure there's a kid in it.

Speaker 1:

Then he does it with that voice, like that stuff you do with your voice. Auto-tune he auto-tuned it didn't he yeah. Did the voice.

Speaker 2:

But I don't see him doing that. No, I think Kanye West would be proven guilty in court for this?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I don't think she can yet, I don't think it'll stand up. Did she think the police would say well, in that case, you're free to go?

Speaker 2:

Oh, Kanye West.

Speaker 1:

It's not your fault.

Speaker 2:

But she did the ultimate name drop, like you know how you'll get pulled over, yeah, and you'll be like, oh, you must know so-and-so, or I might be like you might know my dad, you know, like kind of name drop you know, I know Mrs.

Speaker 1:

C yeah, mrs Carrington, my boss, she's the best.

Speaker 2:

And then for him to be like Kanye West is the one that told me.

Speaker 1:

That's not a name to drop. It'd probably get you out of jail. I wouldn't think.

Speaker 2:

I don't think so. Never have Wow.

Speaker 1:

Gotcha.

Speaker 2:

Holly. What about you, holly?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I've got a whole story oh, do you, yeah, yeah, I don't know if John wants to hear it. Do you want to hear the story, John?

Speaker 2:

John, you want to go on this Absolutely.

Speaker 1:

Okay, tell us your story.

Speaker 2:

Well, listen, john. So I planned a beach trip for me and my two young daughters. They were three and five at the time. Okay, single mom. Okay, going by myself yeah I missed a turn john in birmingham that added two hours to my destination two hours.

Speaker 3:

It took me off track two hours.

Speaker 2:

I was going, 65 and a 35, oh no, and I was because the kids were screaming. They were when are we gonna be there? We're bored, we're hungry, we're tired, we're everything in the world and driving me crazy. And so I was like I've got to get there, I have got to make up for lost time. Yeah, and the estate trooper pulled me over, and you know they're never letting you go. So he came up to my window and said ma'am, do you know why I pulled you over? I said, sir, can you hear why they were screaming? I don't know why. I thought it was a good idea to take my girls to the beach by myself.

Speaker 1:

It'll never happen again.

Speaker 2:

It'll never happen again. I will absolutely have help.

Speaker 1:

I get it Well. All right, joan. Hey, we hope you have a great day and thanks for listening. Okay, with Wranglers, it's 8.38. I can't wait for the new album to come out, because we had the story yesterday. One of the songs on. There is where she befriends an armadillo on the side of the road and the armadillo jumps in the truck with her, I think and rolls a joint, a doobie. A doobie in the truck. Yeah, that's an imagination.

Speaker 2:

And then they smoke together.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and that song will be on the new album. Okay, I wonder if she wrote it. I don't know, we'll find out. It's time Speaking of that, something similar.

Speaker 2:

Speaking of that, something similar, speaking of drugs, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Animal story the lady is okay. The lady is okay, an 89-year-old woman. She says she survived the ordeal by befriending a fox.

Speaker 2:

Survived what.

Speaker 1:

Here's what happened the grandmother spent four nights trapped in the Alps, 89-year-old 89-year-old, oh my God. Guasapina, just theina Bardelli. Guasapina I have no idea, I don't know. She says she was foraging for mushrooms. Oh no, do people still do that?

Speaker 2:

I mean, I guess so. I guess okay Is she looking for magic mushrooms or is she looking for cooking mushrooms?

Speaker 1:

I don't know she was looking for mushrooms and she fell into a gully. Oh, and she says, while she was there for four days until they found her, which is okay. Now she says she survived by befriending a fox, made friends okay when the authorities arrived, they didn't see the fox. Couldn't find the fox. No, no, I'm not sure how the fox actually helped her survive, if it was bringing her food, and I don't know if she found the fox after she found some of the mushrooms she's foraging or not.

Speaker 2:

Sounds like she definitely found the mushrooms. Yeah, and this also sounds like a weird Disney fairy tale.

Speaker 1:

It does, because when they're asking for more details on what happened when you found the fox, here's what she said. The conversation sounded like. I'm a fox, my name's Todd. What's your?

Speaker 2:

name kid Mine's Copper. I'm a hound dog, so she left out the hound dog in this story but she said she found the fox.

Speaker 1:

Oh my God, I don't know if his name was.

Speaker 2:

Todd, but she made a friend.

Speaker 1:

My name is Todd.

Speaker 2:

She found the mushrooms.

Speaker 1:

So how did the fox tie into all this? She says she survived by finding the fox.

Speaker 2:

Barry you cannot Did she eat it. No, you cannot ask where things come from when one has consumed mushrooms. That's true. You can say anything.

Speaker 1:

Was the fox riding a purple dinosaur? Could have been. Was the dinosaur riding the fox?

Speaker 2:

Could have been A little tiny miniature dinosaur strapped on a fox.

Speaker 1:

My name is Todd. I've got a dinosaur on my back because she smoked mushrooms or ate mushrooms, I don't know, can you smoke them?

Speaker 2:

I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Well, if you're alone four days in the Alps, if you have a lighter, I'd give it a shot. Got to survive somehow.

Speaker 2:

Smoke them if you got them.

Speaker 1:

Exactly, it's 841.

Speaker 3:

WQSB Mornings with Barry and Holly.

Speaker 1:

Before we get into your quote, you're like Auntie Anne's pretzels.

Speaker 2:

My goodness yes.

Speaker 1:

I used to. When you'd go to the mall, you'd always find these inside malls set up in there. That smell of the pretzels, freshly baked were so good.

Speaker 2:

Did you tell me you never had one?

Speaker 1:

I've never had one freshly baked. I'd always smell them, but we were poor, so we never stopped by.

Speaker 2:

Well, your life is not complete unless you have.

Speaker 1:

Now, I've had pretzels, but not the fresh ones, freshly baked, like you're talking about.

Speaker 2:

Oh my gosh, there's nothing better. I know they. Oh my gosh, there's nothing better. I know they smell so good, but I've never had one you think Krispy Kreme is good when they're hot, them Auntie Anne's when they're hot.

Speaker 1:

Mm-hmm. Well, so you like the smell. Oh yeah, you want to smell like them. No, there's a perfume coming out.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Well, it's more than you think actually it is $25 for an ounce. Is that high?

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

It's the smell of the pretzels. They somehow put this into a bottle and they say it smells just like a pretzel. So would you want to smell like a pretzel all day?

Speaker 2:

No, that would drive people crazy. I want to smell like vanilla and warm flavors and comforting. I don't want to smell like a pretzel.

Speaker 1:

It would be funny, though you walk by and smell it, yeah who would I smell a pretzel. She must have one in her purse, but she don't have one.

Speaker 2:

What if you were so mean and you went into the break room and sprayed it a whole bunch of times? And here comes everybody wanting the pretzels, but there's no pretzels to be had.

Speaker 1:

Seth in there like I'm a hound dog. I'm a hound dog From Pox and Allen. I want to find a pretzel. I want to find that pretzel. I smell it. That would be Seth. I want to steal the pretzels. All right Time for the quote of the day. Now you are you okay? Yeah, I'm good. So you heard this one from? Was it online? Yeah, you saw an interview for Beetlejuice.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I saw Beetlejuice. It was Beetlejuice 2. And it had such a powerful example of empowerment in this quote. Yeah, so what had happened was Winona Judd was standing with Jenna Ortega, uh-huh, and they were having Ryder. What did I say, judd? Oh sorry, winona Ryder.

Speaker 1:

Maybe Winona's in the background, I mean she could be, who knows, maybe they're eating a pretzel. She might be.

Speaker 2:

She might be looking for mushrooms.

Speaker 1:

Chewing on a pretzel you never know Origin.

Speaker 2:

I'm a hound dog. I'm a hound dog. Stop Okay, I have to.

Speaker 1:

All right now. You were telling me moments ago when we went off the track. Yeah, when the wheels fell off. Yes, you were watching an interview on the Winona rider Rider and Jenna.

Speaker 2:

Ortega. They were posed together, they were taking photos and Winona had sunglasses on and the photographers and press kept hounding her to take them off, Like Winona take them off, like manona, take them off. Take your sunglasses off, for whatever reason she had them on.

Speaker 1:

She didn't want to take them off maybe she had them seriously like a long night put the eyes.

Speaker 2:

You don't know I mean you can't be perfect 100 of the time. Nobody is well, like kevin hart this morning on the today show wore sunglasses the entire interview and you can't tell them to take them off.

Speaker 1:

Nope.

Speaker 2:

That's the world we live in. If you want to wear sunglasses, wear them.

Speaker 1:

Do what you want to do.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So she looked uncomfortable, but she continued to smile. But then it escalated and it got so bad that Jenna Ortega had to say hey, no, you don't have to. She started to reach up and grab out her glasses and take them off.

Speaker 1:

She was going to do it because they were pressuring her to do it. She was pressured yes.

Speaker 2:

And Jenna Ortega said and this is our quote of the day no, you don't have to. I like that and I love that because it's so simple but direct and it means no, you don't have to always make yourself accessible to others. And no, you don't always have to say yes, if it makes you feel uncomfortable, don't give into pressure. Yeah, you don't owe anyone anything, so we're in our. No, you don't have to era I like that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and look at Jenna Ortega. What 21, 22 year old. Yeah, and she's teaching Winona something.

Speaker 2:

In her 50s yeah.

Speaker 1:

Just be. You Do what you want to do.
