Speaker 2:It drives my anxiety goes up to 100% if I'm late.
Speaker 1:I've been late for work. Knock on, knock on, knock on knock on fake wood, knock on particle board. I've been late for work one time. Once In your whole life Morning show In your whole life. Yeah, wow, many years ago, and that's frightened me so much. That's why I have three alarm clocks now.
Speaker 2:So I've been late for work. Is it two or two?
Speaker 1:times a week. No, it's been like two times. No, you were in the last year. I called you when the first time yes and you panicked yes, I did one time.
Speaker 2:I didn't set my alarm. I thought I had set my alarm. Do you ever do that? Have you ever done that? Yes, you thought you said didn't.
Speaker 1:Then you wake up about midnight and say you wonder. Then you have to lean over and see if your alarm has been set or not.
Speaker 2:I know, but anyway, 20% of us are late for work at least once a week.
Speaker 1:Wow, so two out of ten people, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah. They both work in radio 10% admitted they were late at least twice a week. And here are the most common excuses for being late. I got a funny story to say too. Number five we're going to count them down is wardrobe issues.
Speaker 1:What does that mean? Exactly?
Speaker 2:When you can't find something to wear, barry, oh, please, or your shirts don't fit, or your pants don't fit. You know, you might have had a few extra dinner rolls and they might be sticking to you.
Speaker 1:Okay, we got you, you know, yeah, or you mess your pants.
Speaker 2:Oh, I hope not. That would be awful. Okay, Number four problems with public transportation.
Speaker 1:We don't have to worry about that here. We don't have that here we don't have the bus that brings you to and from Nope, we don't have that Nope. What else? We don't have that word. No, what else?
Speaker 2:Number three this has got to be the most popular. To me it should be number one Is getting the children ready for school or daycare. Yes, my gosh, yes, yes, especially when they don't want to go.
Speaker 4:Get out of bed, yeah.
Speaker 2:When they don't want to get out of bed. They don't want their diaper changed. They don't want to pack lunch. No, they don't want to get their homework together. It's just a mess it is. Number two is lack of sleep.
Speaker 1:You just can't crawl out of bed and keep hitting the snooze, yep, yeah.
Speaker 2:And number one is what we just reported on traffic.
Speaker 1:Traffic. Now for us, we're lucky.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Usually when I come into work there's like me and this one other guy out there.
Speaker 2:Not me.
Speaker 1:No, not you.
Speaker 2:No, I come in at like. I'm on the road about 445, and there's a ton of traffic out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm looking at the traffic now. What are y'all doing out there? Here it is 615, and it's busy on the highway already.
Speaker 2:It is yeah, and I'll get in line at Jack's or somewhere to get me a drink or a biscuit and I'm sitting in the line.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So here's something you need to know.
Speaker 1:What do we need to know?
Speaker 2:Capri Sun is selling pallets of 3,800 juice packets.
Speaker 1:Does this mean they're trying to get rid of the juice packets?
Speaker 2:Well, it's unavailable in bottles now.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's a great move.
Speaker 2:But the pouch is not going away. But a Capri Sun Instagram post suggested that customers will soon be able to buy the entire pallet and I need that because this is all she drinks and it's classic packaging at Walmart next week. So if you want to stay up to date on that, just follow Capri Sun on social media.
Speaker 1:I wonder how much that would be. I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:I think it's like $10 for a box of three, okay, but hey, if you have kids or adults who love Capri Sun, this would be something to keep an eye on. Get a whole pallet of them.
Speaker 2:Well, a pallet would last about three days at my house.
Speaker 1:So the kids love them. Oh yeah, I love Capri Sun.
Speaker 2:And here's something to think about. Okay, you know I like music of all types, but yesterday I was listening to rap. Rap, yeah, why? And just because I wanted to.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:I wanted to listen to rap.
Speaker 1:You must have been having a bad day.
Speaker 2:No, I like rap. I was sitting on my back porch I had the rap going.
Speaker 1:You must have had an urge to go beat someone up.
Speaker 2:No, I was just sitting on the back porch listening to rap music. You don't know, even Post Malone has some rap. Ed Sheeran has some rap.
Speaker 1:There's rap and then there's rap.
Speaker 2:You can't understand a word? Let me ask the guy in the corner.
Speaker 1:Lee, do you like? Rap you like?
Speaker 7:rap Lee, I'm not going to lie yeah.
Speaker 2:He likes it. Okay, okay, but it hit me with some of the lyrics. I wish I could love something as much as rappers love dogs, female dogs and gardening tools. Do you get it?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't think that's what they're talking about exactly.
Speaker 2:Don't explain that one to the kids.
Speaker 1:I don't think it's the gardening tools they love female dogs and gardening tools. We'll just leave that alone, it's 616.
Speaker 3:Mornings with Barry and Hall here on Alabama's country giant WQSB on. Alabama's country, giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:Talk about the boar's head story. You're about to tell the details. Usually when you hear there's some food recall, it's like something minor gets into the food. They have to recall it. But from what you're telling me here, this is pretty. How many people have died over this?
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it goes a little bit deeper than that, and I can see why, after what you're about to tell everybody, Mm-hmm Food Safety and Inspection Service workers. They toured the Boar's Head plant in Virginia. They found a whole list of sanitation violations. And what'd they find? They had uncovered rusty equipment, mold, rancid odors and standing water throughout the plant.
Speaker 1:This is where they're processing meat sandwich meat and meat. So the rusty equipment that they're using to?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's rusty and has standing water and has mold, and Boar's Head has recently recalled more than 7 million pounds of products. I think it's safe to say stay away from Boar's.
Speaker 1:Head yeah, they're done and people have died over this. This is awful.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1:I don't think I've ever had the Boar's Head product. I've seen it in some locations I have, but usually it's a little more expensive than some. Yeah, now it makes you wonder why they were doing nothing to make it sanitary. No, I know that's awful.
Speaker 2:I know it's bad enough that you're releasing this. I mean, that's horrible that they're having these meat problems where it's killing people, but then they go in and inspect. Why would you run a business that way? How?
Speaker 1:could managers let that happen?
Speaker 2:I know there you run a business that way. How could managers let that happen? I know there's so many hands that that pass through. That shouldn't have right. The american forces network has secured permission from the nfl to broadcast all games for military personnel. I love this like this. Um. The games will be available for streaming live and on demand um through the app. The service is free to military members through the super bowl and guess Guess who's playing tonight?
Speaker 1:Chiefs, the Chiefs are playing. Yes, travis Kelsey. Yes, it's the first game, the first regular season game. The Ravens are playing at Kansas City. So question to you is Taylor Swift, is she on tour?
Speaker 2:No, she's on break for two months.
Speaker 1:So she's going to be at the game.
Speaker 2:more than likely She'll be there.
Speaker 1:She's going to be on NBC tonight, by the way.
Speaker 2:And we are not going to drive you crazy with Taylor Swift's sightings, no Just know that you are. Well, I mean, I'm going to drive you crazy with it, but I'm not going to drive three times now, you know.
Speaker 1:That's what it's right up I know.
Speaker 2:During a recent interview, post Malone discussed his chart-topping new album F1 Trillion and some new music. Malone disclosed that the exciting news that he was recording a second collaboration with Morgan Wallen.
Speaker 1:Ooh, a second song.
Speaker 2:A second song he said we wrote I had had some help together and we cut another song too. Okay, I love that yeah, post joke that his memory of the recording session is hazy I bet it was he? Was he said I think I remember doing a verse, but it was one of those long nights he thinks he remembers doing a verse I think he said I think I remember doing a verse.
Speaker 2:I think he said I think I remember doing a verse. Literally those were his words. But it was one of those long nights and he said that song's awesome too.
Speaker 1:I love Post Malone's country album.
Speaker 2:I love country Post Malone, I love it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it is good, All right. 627.
Speaker 3:Mary and Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant.
Speaker 1:WQSB Weather-wise, a little bit of rain, just some showers. I don't think rain had anything to do with whatever happened because there's nothing here, but there was a few showers in Calhoun County and St Clair and a little better chance of rain now for tomorrow afternoon for some areas, mainly Etowah County South. Now for us here at QSP it's just a slight chance of rain. Tomorrow We'll have more on that coming up. Hey, something pretty cool. Everybody's got Chambers. Our newsman. He messaged you a couple of days ago, mm-hmm, and so we. Now you tell me we now have a song, a morning show song.
Speaker 2:Yes, with our names in it. He wrote it. So he wrote the script.
Speaker 7:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And AI sang it. Ah, so he didn't write the music or the beat, but AI sang it and it's so good, we love it so we have the song.
Speaker 1:Do we have to pay Scott for this?
Speaker 2:no, we don't have to pay him anything he makes a killing as it is. I might toss like a five at him.
Speaker 1:Five dollar bill being the newsman, he almost makes like engineering money, almost. You know what I'm saying. I mean being the newsman, he almost makes like engineering money. Oh, almost, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, but not quite, so we don't have to pay anything extra for this.
Speaker 2:No, he has the rights to them. Okay, so he said I'll give you full rights to this song.

Speaker 1:Until we negotiate our salary, Then the song goes with us when we leave. Oh man.
Speaker 2:If we go, the song goes.
Speaker 1:She just fell up and hit the nightstand.
Speaker 2:You need to reel it in today, tone it down.
Speaker 1:Something else. Let me ask you about this. I saw this story. I'll give you your opinion on this. Did you ever, when you were little or maybe more recently, did your mom ever tell your dad that chewing chewing gum, if you swallow it, it stays in your body and your stomach for possibly forever?
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, not not forever, but years that's what everybody says, yeah that's what everybody says well, that's like a myth.
Speaker 1:Well, it is a myth. They did a study on this. In reality is, chewing gum will make its way through your body quickly, except in extreme circumstances.
Speaker 1:But according to these experts, they say that when you swallow your gum, it's true your body can't digest it, but it comes out in the same form as when it as it went in okay so we don't break it down like oh okay, okay, when it comes out you swallow like a big wad of I was about to say so if you swallow a wad, you're gonna poop the wad.
Speaker 2:I mean, just say what it is. It is what it is you are.
Speaker 1:It's gonna come out pretty much the same. Okay, yeah, so some Bubblicious. I wouldn't say it's delicious anymore, but it's coming out.
Speaker 2:I've always been too scared to swallow gum. I have too. I'm scared to swallow it.
Speaker 1:I was afraid I was going to be laying in bed and have the big bubble pop up.
Speaker 2:It's pounded in my head what, why are?
Speaker 1:you swallowing the gum. What You're just going to go right by that one Lee.
Speaker 2:have you heard that myth? We've got Lee, our engineer, in here.
Speaker 1:Oh my, I agree, you're going to have to reel it in. He's rethinking his job here. Oh man, no. But did Mom ever tell you that if you swallow your chewing gum it's going to stay? She shared me to death. It Stay in your stomach forever is what she would tell me A hundred percent.
Speaker 7:I've heard that myth. I still believe it. Honestly, I'm not going to lie, that's what I'm like.
Speaker 2:I hear this and that makes sense, but I've been told this for so many years. I can't go back on my beliefs.
Speaker 7:It's not comfortable.
Speaker 1:No, it's not. Scientific evidence now says it will come through. It can lead to intestinal blockages if you eat too much gum, like if you swallow it every day on purpose then that can be a problem.
Speaker 2:This is what I'm scared of.
Speaker 1:This is why I don't swallow gum. So don't do it on purpose. But if you accidentally, rest assured it's going to come through, how?
Speaker 2:do you accidentally?
Speaker 1:I don't know Laugh or get excited or something I don't know. When you swallow a gum, somebody walks in.
Speaker 2:Do you swallow gum when you laugh?
Speaker 1:Uh, no, okay, I used to.
Speaker 2:You grew out of it. I grew out of it, though. Alright it's 6.44.
Speaker 3:Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly.

Speaker 1:Okay, now, we've talked about this every time. When they say Dancing with the Stars, shouldn't they have stars on there?

Speaker 2:They probably can't afford them. Like I would put Simone Biles in there. Yeah, I would love to watch her dance that would be amazing.
Speaker 1:She would be good Like some of the major, like Travis Kelsey. Yeah. You imagine, taylor Swift is on there. It's also like football season though, so he can't be on there. I got it.
Speaker 2:No, because these are live. They dance live. Yeah, did you watch? Only Murders in the Building I've seen the first season.

Speaker 1:Which side were you on?
Speaker 2:edward, edward, yeah the series will be a retelling of the first twilight book from from the perspective of edward cullen. I've actually read this book. It is just as good as the other ones. I mean same writer, same style, but it's from Edward's point of view.
Speaker 1:Being animated. Will that take away from it? Yep, so you don't think you'll watch.
Speaker 2:No, I'm going to watch, okay, but it's going to be weird, okay, yeah. And then, speaking of weird, barney the Dinosaur will return to TV screens with a new animated series, barney's World.

Speaker 7:Back in the day, maybe a Barney fan, but man, it looks creepy. Yeah, it's real weird.
Speaker 1:I might be scared by this as a little kid Not gonna lie, it does. It looks strange. And the real one back in the day, the kids, when the real Barney came out, the kids would watch some of it. They never really were interested in Barney the Dinosaur. And I'm glad, yeah, because you didn't have to endure it. You didn't have to endure it.
Speaker 2:I'm going to tell you my kids watch stuff that I like these days, but they're 9 and 7. But when they were little their big thing was Sesame Street and I loved it because they had real stars on there that would come and do the music and stuff.

Speaker 1:Our buddy, lee Mosley, is in here with us, so Lee is over there in the corner.
Speaker 2:Engineering as usual, as usual.
Speaker 1:So thanks for coming in, lee. Lee came in awfully early this morning. Yeah, yeah, so tell me, what are we doing here, lee?
Speaker 7:Well, we're testing out the live stream right now and I think it's going pretty good. I'm pretty excited. I'm hoping we're going to be able to roll this out to the listeners pretty soon.
Speaker 1:So when you say live stream, there's a camera here in this room right now. Oh, yes, yeah, yeah, you get to see what barry looks like early in the morning. Yeah, holly's a big question mark here. Oh, why do you do your hair? Do you have to because I don't have to worry about any of that?
Speaker 2:well, no so mine's falling out, so I don't care here's the thing I sometimes will wash my hair and put it up wet in a clip.
Speaker 8:True.
Speaker 2:But I feel like, if I'm going to be on camera, I don't know? Do I do my hair and makeup every day? Do people? Care.
Speaker 1:Do people care? I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't think they would care. I mean, you know.
Speaker 1:Because radio is their voice, but now we're adding an extra element to it.
Speaker 7:Yeah, I've always heard you know, I've got a face for radio.
Speaker 1:It's true.
Speaker 7:Hey, what are you saying?
Speaker 1:I'm always saying I'm ugly. You're saying I'm ugly, no, so what will this be? Now you can see what goes on in the control room.
Speaker 7:Oh, yeah, not only that, you'll be able to have a little bit of interaction with Holly and Mary in between the breaks. Yeah, some of the breaks. I think it's going to be really cool. It'll give our listeners a chance to kind of talk to you guys. Yeah, give some feedback, and I think that would be really cool.
Speaker 1:So when this does start, how can someone find it?
Speaker 7:So it'll be on our Facebook page. So, wqsb, go to the Facebook page and I think we might be even looking at doing YouTube as well. Ooh, fancy You're excited.
Speaker 1:When you first came in, you said my goal is in the next few months, maybe a year, to do this.
Speaker 2:And it took that long. There's a lot involved. There's a lot involved, yeah, and we still have questions about things that we're trying to work out. But, um, I'm really excited about this because we get to fate, people get to watch us and they see us and it's neat because I'll go out to a store somewhere and I'll talk and somebody might recognize my voice and they'll say, oh, we listen to you at the morning show. But now I think people will be able to identify us by seeing us right, and we always like you're never bothering us, guys. No, if y'all see us out. Because one time, barry, a couple weeks ago, tell that story. The little boy said, or the mama said, don't bother him.
Speaker 1:I was at Food City.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And I was looking at the leadership section, I heard somebody behind me saying I think that's Barry Galloway. And they went down there's a mother and her daughter and the little girl said is it? And she said I don't know, don't bother. She said I want to find out and the little girl said hey, barry Galloway. And it shocked me. She said I'm going to find out. She yelled it out.
Speaker 2:How old do you think she was?
Speaker 1:Maybe 10, 11, 12. Oh man, that's so funny, but that was cool.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I love that and I love meeting the listeners. I took Carlo to Buffalo Wild Wings the other day and there was this little girl in there. She was nine years old and I walked by and her mama said I am so sorry to bother you, but she is starstruck. And that's such an honor to me. I will never have a big head about it or be conceited about it. It always humbles me. It's always like somebody heard me and I hope to bring joy to people and so to be recognized is an honor.
Speaker 1:It's an honor. We're just doing a job. Like we said last Friday, friday was a special day, but we said from day one, when we go on the radio, if we can make one person smile, we've done a good job.
Speaker 2:That's the goal.
Speaker 1:That's our goal. So you being able to watch two people do stuff in a room that makes you smile, that's great.
Speaker 2:We've done our job.
Speaker 1:We've done our job and we've got to thank Lee Mosley for helping be a part of this.
Speaker 7:Lee has got this off the ground and running and he is the reason why this is happening. So I'm so thankful for lee. Well, I think I'm thankful for y'all. You know y'all are so funny. I love listening to y'all in the morning thank you.
Speaker 1:We appreciate that, because not many can say that no, no, hey. But today's quote is a good one. It kind of ties in and talking about, uh, kids, and so the quote of the day, what you got.
Speaker 2:I've got, dear teenager keep learning, be curious, be honest, work hard, have fun, stop listening to negative people, keep good friends and repeat.
Speaker 1:Every one of those little bullet points there is perfect.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1:You can pick out any of those and if you listen to what you're saying there, so many of those can help you have a better life.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it says dear teenager in the quote, but this could literally be for any age in life Keep learning, keep being honest, work hard and have fun.
Speaker 1:Don't listen to the negative people, keep good friends and repeat Because it makes you wonder, with what happened in Georgia yesterday A 14-year-old boy, what he did. What happened, what went wrong to make you get to the point where you said I'm going to do this? What happened? I don't understand. I'll never understand that.
Speaker 2:I'll never understand schools. No Shootings Ever.
Speaker 1:Ever. It's horrible. What makes you want to go and hurt not only yourself but other people?
Speaker 3:I know, but anyway, that's sad, but just think about that quote, yeah, and it'll help you build you up. All right, 717.
Speaker 1:Barry and Holly on Alabama's Country Giant WQSB Food stories. I think this is a great idea. And then McCormick makes all kinds of spices, things like that. I like this. They're now coming out with a line of I guess you'd say finished. They're calling them finishing sugars for the holidays. Ooh, that sounds good what it is. They come in little bottles. You can sprinkle them. It helps you if you're making cupcakes or cookies or cakes, or even for hot cocoa.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, they have the flavors of candy cane crunched up, candy cane pieces. There's English toffee, white frosting, salted caramel, hot cocoa and gingerbread spice.
Speaker 2:And these spices are coming out just in time for the holidays coming up. Those would be good in your coffee.
Speaker 1:That is a great idea.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's a great idea. Yep. Well, McDonald's is changing the McFlurry cups and introducing a mini McFlurry. Why are they?
Speaker 1:changing the cups.
Speaker 2:I have no idea. Yeah, they're replacing the plastic lid on the McFlurry cups with a four-flap cup to support sustainability.
Speaker 1:It's basically like when you order Chinese food at takeout.
Speaker 3:Oh, I get it the way you open the flaps, the folded.
Speaker 1:It looks like that, but why do you want to put your ice cream in there?
Speaker 2:I wouldn't want to Okay.
Speaker 1:Is it?
Speaker 2:paper.
Speaker 1:Anyway, I guess.
Speaker 2:They're also introducing the mini McFlurry and we'll phase out the McFlurry spoon design, replacing it with a similar version.
Speaker 1:Now the big spoon is weird.
Speaker 2:That's what mixes it.
Speaker 1:You know how it has a little hook.
Speaker 2:No, you can't use it as a straw. It's got a little hook on the end. It hooks into the ice cream machine when it's working and when the ice cream or the ice cream, it hooks into the machine. Yes, it hooks up into the ice cream machine and then it spins it around like this how do you know this? Because I've watched them make them.
Speaker 1:I thought you didn't say you worked there. No, I never worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 2:But I also one time asked them if you could use this spoon as a straw, and they looked at me like I was crazy.
Speaker 1:Is any of this true at all? I think she's making it up.
Speaker 7:She's 100% right. There is a bit on the spoon that connects to the ice cream machine when it works. You know, I'm wondering if they're changing the design of the spoon because they're getting rid of that old junk of ice cream machines Isn't there like an app, seriously, you can go to it.
Speaker 1:Tells you which ice cream machines are working.
Speaker 7:Oh my gosh, I believe it, I believe it. Yeah, I bet there is. Look it up.
Speaker 1:Okay, there was. I haven't checked it in the past few years.
Speaker 2:I will.
Speaker 1:But there is an app that tells you, as well as it can, if's ice creams for about four years now.
Speaker 2:Wow.
Speaker 1:Probably about four years Between them and Taco Bell's frozen drink machine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh my gosh. Yes, you can never get a frozen Baja Blast.
Speaker 1:I think the person who actually made those machines is the person who also repairs them, so he knows if I let these screw up enough. I got me a job to life?
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, I. So he knows if I let these screw up enough. I got me a job to life. Oh yeah, I'm making bridge baby Genius. I know Okay, so my kids love Dino Nuggets.
Speaker 7:Yes.
Speaker 2:And I'm so excited because Spooky Nuggets are back for the Halloween season Spooky Nuggets. These were out last year from Tyson and they feature chicken nuggets, but they're in the shape of a pumpkin, a ghost and a bat.
Speaker 1:That just looks wrong.
Speaker 2:No, they're cute.
Speaker 1:That looks weird.
Speaker 2:There's nothing weird about that. It's cute and plus it's a great source of protein, and Tyson has no antibiotics ever in their food, so I trust them. What are you looking?
Speaker 1:at. I'm looking at the bat. It looks like somebody's up down and shooting a bird, does not? It does? Look at the bat it does not look at the bottom of it. It's like somebody's hand is upside down shooting a bird you have got to make everything just controversial.
Speaker 7:See it, I'm a tiny dino fan yeah come on now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like it, though I'm not complaining I think it's cool. I I'm going to get them 727.

Speaker 2:Now I will tell you. It is very popular with the peewee football team. There is like 20 of them running around with mullets.
Speaker 1:Let me ask you is it a man thing, Can women have it their haircut to where there is a mullet? Or is it just a man thing?
Speaker 2:Why would they not be able to?
Speaker 1:I don't know, because, like your hair, you have long hair in the back.
Speaker 2:I mean yes, If I wanted to, I could make a mullet. Okay, so I have no desire to, but some women do yes.
Speaker 1:Do you know of one?
Speaker 2:Yes, Don't be sexist?
Speaker 1:I'm not, I'm just curious. Okay, yes, I'm just asking a simple question and you've threatened a lawyer on me. All of a sudden, we're just going to be serious. No, I really think about it, Lee. I mean mostly you think of men with a mullet.
Speaker 2:I'm going to be honest with you. I went to Mountaintop Trade Day, okay, and I have seen many women with mullets, okay. So we don't want to offend anybody.
Speaker 1:No, I was just asking.
Speaker 2:I didn offend anybody, I just asked it. I didn't know. Yeah, yeah, all you gotta do is just shave the sides, cut the sides up, do whatever.

Speaker 2:don't know if recording this show lies I give you plenty of ways to get out 65% of managers won't hire you if you don't make eye contact during the interview.
Speaker 7:Oh, good to know 65%.
Speaker 2:Why would you Okay, so say I'm talking to you, yeah, and you ask me a question. Ask me what are your strengths and weaknesses, holly have you ever had a mullet? I can't imagine talking to you and not looking at you in the eyes. That's weird.
Speaker 1:Because you just did that looking down, I just did that looking down and it's weird to not talk to you with my eyes.
Speaker 2:Why, and it's weird to not talk to you with my eyes? Why are people not making eye contact? Well, I will tell you.
Speaker 1:There was this many years ago. Someone came in and interviewed for a job. Seriously, I was looking at him. He was looking over to his left like out the window. Wow, it was one of the weirdest interviews. That is weird and mentally I was thinking, okay, this is odd. And it makes you mentally think, okay, maybe he's not what we're looking for, because he couldn't make eye contact. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Don't know why. I don't know if it was something the way I brushed my hair or my breath. I don't know what it was, but it was unusual, do?
Speaker 2:you have salad breath.
Speaker 1:Possibly, yeah, yeah, does it make a difference to you? Lee Eye contact.
Speaker 7:I'm just going to be completely honest I'm not the best at eye contact, really. No, it actually makes me slightly uncomfortable.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, definitely uncomfortable.
Speaker 1:But I will look for him occasionally, but this guy never even looked at me.
Speaker 7:Interview situation. Definitely, I feel like you know, at least you know.
Speaker 2:It's uncomfortable but you have to, you have to.
Speaker 7:I feel like the eye contact level in here has gone up since we've had this conversation. It has it has.
Speaker 2:We're all looking at each other in the eyes. This is really weird, guys, this is really weird.
Speaker 1:We're playing a game now like the blink.
Speaker 2:I mean it usually is Lee, it's usually weird Staring competition.
Speaker 1:Let's go, staring, go I know, but when I talk to you, when we do stories, I look the eyes you do. I may look down to read something.
Speaker 2:But I pop back up eye contact. Yeah, I'm back. I think it's important when you interview somebody.

Speaker 2:I mean, I always think like what if I get pulled over, or what if I have a wreck, or what if I have engine trouble? So I'm always hesitant to wear certain things, you know.
Speaker 1:Well, you should be, because what if you pull up and your teacher runs up and says, hey, you've got a sec, I need to talk to you real quick. And come to my office and you're there in your pajamas in the car, when you didn't wear all the support.

Speaker 2:I've got all kinds of stuff to mess you up with WQSB Mornings with Barry and.
Speaker 1:Holly Jelly Roll. He's always in the news and this one it's very special what he's done especially for him, yeah, he says to remind himself of his past mistakes as well as his current success, so he can keep himself grounded. He had some jewelry custom made. It symbolizes his past. Now what it is. He was recently presented with a symbolic key to the Metro Davidson County detention facility. He says he spent a lot of time there in and out of jail, a place where he spent many months, a couple of years. He now has a replica of that key attached to a handcuffs chain necklace. The necklace is a necklace with tiny handcuffs on it and the handcuffs on there represent how many times he was arrested and it has details on the date of when he was arrested to remind him when he was there and where he used to be, and now where he is today and what he's overcome.
Speaker 2:That is so thoughtful, like whoever came up with that is so creative. That's overcome. That is so thoughtful, like whoever came up with. That is so creative. That's amazing.
Speaker 1:So this company who designs jewelry designed this for him and it's got encrusted diamonds in the necklace and the key also represents the key that was used to open his cell his jail cell back years ago. How neat he says he will always keep it. By the way, it's 150 carats of diamonds. Oh my gosh, in this you can see how much it costs I don't know but it's on our facebook check out the video of him being presented with this and his reaction when he sees it for the first time I watched it.
Speaker 1:It's definitely something you want to watch it is parker mccullum has coming up with something new.
Speaker 2:On september 13th, he shared an Instagram reel. On Wednesday, did you see it?
Speaker 1:I did.
Speaker 2:It shows McCollum and his friends working on new music together in the recording studio, and the video is just simply captioned with the date 9-13., which suggests that his unknown project is being released next Friday.
Speaker 1:Oh, and next is Friday the 13th. Friday the 13th is next week. Yeah, exactly so it could. Beth is next week. Yeah, exactly so it could be coming up next week. All right, here's Dylan Scott on QSV Crime stories. I don't know 46-year-old man tried a very unusual sales tactic and we have some great salespeople here.
Speaker 1:We do You'll never see them doing this. He was outside of a Florida Keys strip mall and the guy's name is steven. Steven was reportedly yelling at shoppers who were going by, trying to sell meth to them. What you like, you need to see some of the ball games. Hey, get your hot dogs. He was saying, get your meth, get your meth, get your meth right here. He had already tried some okay. So one customer came up, looked at me and then he threw a beer bottle and hit him with a beer bottle wait, wait, wait.
Speaker 2:The guy that's got meth for everybody.
Speaker 1:The guy walked past him so he didn't like that. So he got a beer bottle and threw it and hit him as he walked by. You can't do that. So what kind of sales technique is that? Okay, you're trying to sell meth on the street, first of all, yelling it out loud to the world. The guy passed him.
Speaker 2:I said no, thank you, I'm good. Yeah, this is well. And throws a beer bottle and hits him with it. What would you do if you were the guy that got hit with the beer bottle?
Speaker 1:I think I'd pick it up and go back and use it on him.
Speaker 2:I don't know what I would do I think I'd recycle it on him I'd be scared because people on meth are scary.
Speaker 1:Oh, by the way, did I say you also had a machete laying next to him?
Speaker 2:oh, okay yeah.
Speaker 1:So when the police got there, he had a scale pipes, 15 grams of meth and a machete.
Speaker 2:Is 15 grams of meth a lot?
Speaker 1:I don't know in the meth world. I have no idea.
Speaker 2:I don't know meth math, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I don't know, but yes, he was arrested. It's 831. Mornings with.
Speaker 3:Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:He's actually won a competition, so it's Kylan. Kylan, how are you doing this morning?
Speaker 8:I am doing awesome. How are you guys?
Speaker 1:doing. He even has a good speaking voice too, he does.
Speaker 2:He's got a good radio voice.
Speaker 1:So it's Kylan Chase, and so let's talk about this. So you're a singing competition winner. How does that sound? How does that feel?
Speaker 8:It feels a little weird. Honestly. There was a lot of awesome people. I mean, honestly, I just couldn't believe I won. To be real, I thought maybe you know, fourth or fifth place sounded nice. Yeah. And then they called out third place, and then they called out second place, and I was like well, we'll try again next time. And then I got first place.
Speaker 1:So tell us about the competition. Holly, it's Sand Mountain Idol.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so Sand Mountain Idol at the Fire Plug and I think it's important to tell Colin wasn't going to do this. He was encouraged by his wife Amy and then he was actually forced by his wife Amy to go do the contest, but it was at the Fire Plug.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And they hosted Sand Mountain Idol and there was over 100 people that initially tried out, and then you beat it down to one. He is the one.
Speaker 1:So how many rounds did you go through that you had to keep, Was it? You say seven rounds that you went through yourself.
Speaker 8:So they did four rounds of the open auditions, yeah. And then after that I believe there was four more after that, because they did the judges' picture songs week. They did like the one of you won battle week. Then they did the week where you had to come in and perform with a live band oh wow. And then they narrowed it down to the last, uh, eight people and it was just kind of winner take all oh, that's awesome yeah, so what song won?
Speaker 2:what song did you sing that you think made you win?
Speaker 8:um, I had to sing when a man loves a woman by Percy Sledge, really From 1966.
Speaker 6:And I was like I can't sing this. Was that a judge's pick?
Speaker 8:Yeah, I was like I don't even know who Percy Sledge is and I listened to it 930,000 times and they all seemed to enjoy that one. And then you know the final coming weeks or whatever, you're kind of in the headspace when you get to pick your own songs, of like, do I want to pick something that's going to make everybody start singing, you know, do I want to pick something that's very familiar or something on the radio? I didn't, I just I picked. If you know who Walk the moon is a big time bomb by them. And then I did say you won't let go by james arthur.
Speaker 8:I think that's probably the one that got it, because we had to perform with a live band and I didn't get a chance to rehearse with them, so they met there at three o'clock with all the contestants to rehearse and I just walked in right before it started and I was like listen guys, let's just wing it he's that good barry like for real colin sings at church.
Speaker 2:We go to compassion city together, colin and his wife amy right, they have a baby on the way congratulations eden valley yeah so sweet, I just love the name.

Speaker 8:Yes, I appreciate you guys for having me.
Speaker 2:Do you have any future plans? The road of recording what, what's your, what's your thoughts. Um, he has a huge tiktok following.
Speaker 8:I need to say that plug your tiktok real quick. I do a lot of streaming on tiktok. It's just kyle and chase. Um, I do have a lot of plans. I write a lot. Uh, I have over 300 songs written that no one's heard yet, so but definitely got to get back in the studio. I have some music out on streaming platforms it's also just Kyle and Chase on Spotify, apple Music, all that good stuff. Hopefully I just moved, just got my new music studio set up and everything, and hopefully I'm going to start releasing about next month and the goal is to release one song a month for a year and just kind of see where that goes. Also, I have a show coming up in february don't know if it's gonna be the first or second week, but at chestnut station and gadsden and, uh, just wherever the wind takes me.
Speaker 1:Man, I guess have you considered american idol the voice, one of those giving it a shot just to see what you might could do thought about it uh you never know, unless you try, he's got something to say I went on american idol one time and it's a little bit more scripted than you think.
Speaker 8:It is okay, I got you it's uh, you know it's not just. I made it through all the vocal auditions and stuff and then you have to go through like stage presence auditions and you have to go through like being tv ready. Oh, oh and I don't know if I'm supposed to say this on the radio you go right.
Speaker 2:Okay, we don't care, we break the rules, you don't have?
Speaker 8:a certain number of following on social media. They won't let you go no way so like if this d minus singer has a hundred thousand followers on instagram. But this person seems like Beyonce, but they only got 1,300. Oh. They're just really worried about their ratings. Makes sense.
Speaker 2:That's dirty. I don't like that.
Speaker 8:I grew up my entire life watching American Idol and it was kind of disappointing when I got there because of that, because I didn't start singing until fairly recently. I mean, I've been singing in the shower since I was eight, but I always dreamed about american idol. And then you finally make it there and you're like oh well, it's only about 10 percent what you think it is well, that's good to know.
Speaker 1:Well, keep doing what you feel like you need to do, and we're here to support you, anything we can do to help you you.
Speaker 8:Hey, like I said, wherever the wind takes me, man, yeah, just go with the flow Well, good luck to you.
Speaker 1:Good luck to you and the wife and the baby on the way. Thank you All right, it's 845.
Speaker 3:Barry and Holly On Alabama's Country, Giant.
Speaker 1:WQSB Starting Monday song. Now I had to top out what this song title actually means, because okay, it's got the number four eggs, four eggs. You Just glancing at it real quick your mind says I'm confused. But it's simply four by four by you, like a four by four truck.
Speaker 2:Why is that confusing?
Speaker 1:to you. Well it is. You're sitting over there minding your own business. I'm over here working my butt off. I glance up and look and I see a 4 and an X, a 4 and an X all jumbled together.
Speaker 2:You don't think as a man? Oh, that's 4x4.
Speaker 1:They're all bunched together. What about you, Lameen? They're all bunched together For one, I think she's throwing shots at you.
Speaker 7:She is, I know Y'all are teaming up on me.
Speaker 1:No, I'm just saying, because you have to look up and look at the screen and say what am I playing here? And all these things are bunched together.
Speaker 2:You think somebody mistyped this. Somebody is going to say they are, and up next we've got 4X4XU. They are, yeah, they are, yeah, they are. They're going to say it. What would you think, lee, if you saw that?
Speaker 1:Here's what I'm looking at. Look at the bottom of it. At the bottom, that's the way the song is titled. That's the way she typed it out. I get what she's saying. It's 4x4xU, but it's 4x4xU the way they type it out. When you go to download this and stream this, that's what you're going. It's a 4X4HU.
Speaker 7:I don't know. I probably would say 4x4BU. I'm not going to lie, but I can see where. Now, if the X is capitalized at that point I don't know that I would have said 4x4BU.
Speaker 1:So I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. You're smarter than the average bear. I get it over there. I understand what, what you're saying. Why don't you just give us a quote then, all right, what you got today.
Speaker 2:Dear teenager, keep learning, be curious, be honest, work hard, have fun, stop listening to negative people, keep good friends and repeat.
Speaker 1:That's good for any age, but you're right For a teenager. There's so much stuff you're going through when you're in school that you've got people peer pressure, people encouraging you to do stuff that you know is wrong. But you know, stop listening to the negative people is one of the main ones that jump out at me. Is that what list you just gave? Yes.
Speaker 2:So many people will tell you you can't do it, you're not smart enough, you're not talented enough, you know, if you feel like you can't keep trying, yeah, and I love the one that says keep good friends, because good friends are really honestly hard to find and the older you get, the harder it is to find people that are true.
Speaker 1:You're right, that's true. All right, good stuff it's 857.
