Speaker 1:Tonight there's a special full moon moon. Okay, we'll tell you more about that in a few minutes. It will be special, no kidding. It's going to be a super moon again and it also has a little bit of a lunar, partial lunar eclipse, or it could even give it that red glow tonight. Ooh, that's cool. So it's a special night tonight, yeah, so we'll give you all the details on that. Plus, you're going to be playing some NASCAR math again this morning, your chance to qualify to win some tickets to Talladega coming up in a couple of weeks. We'll be talking about other things going on Football, we've got Pet of the Week, healthcare, hero, teacher of the Week and a lot of stuff going on. But first, before we go any further, got to do this Things you need to know. It's September the 17th. Well, the month already slipping away and we're almost into fall officially. I think you posted something on Facebook this morning about fall.
Speaker 2:I did, I did, I posted and you've got time to comment. We're going to go over some of the answers later, but I just said fall is near, we're ready for it. What are you looking forward to this fall season?
Speaker 1:And then I put a picture up of us with fall leaves all around us. Yes, so real quick. What is your favorite thing about fall?
Speaker 2:Probably being outside in the cooler weather yeah, but I also love pumpkin patches yeah, I love everything about them.
Speaker 1:I love football weather when going out to games at night, when it's a little cooler Not too cold, but cooler. Oh yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2:And you like Halloween.
Speaker 1:I love Halloween. Kids always love Halloween, their favorite time. Before getting dressed up, it's a costume to wear. That's so much fun.
Speaker 2:Do you give out candy?
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, no, okay, that's the reason why. Okay, we'll go into that. The old neighborhood I lived in. It almost broke me. I filed bankruptcy the next year for buying candy.
Speaker 2:You must have lived closer than nuts and fruit. I was over on Edmondson. Oh yeah, that's the hot spot In the.
Speaker 1:Whispering Pines area, that's the hot spot. I still have nightmares.
Speaker 2:I know what did you give out. I know you didn't give out toothbrushes and apples. I ended up heating some soup up on the stove and ladling it out into the bag. No, you didn't. Some chili here you go kids, some formal.
Speaker 1:Here's your scoop of chili I think, I think buying the sausages.
Speaker 2:What if you gave them out individually instead of in the can? Oh no, you did not. And a cracker for you. What could be the worst thing that you could give out on Halloween other than buying a sausage, because I don't know if that could be tough.
Speaker 1:I think it's toothbrush and toothpaste Really, when they give that to you.
Speaker 2:I've never had that given to me, but I have heard of people doing it.
Speaker 1:Yes, I had it happen to me. Wow it like ruins your night.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm waiting for a big old Butterfinger to look, and there's Crest.
Speaker 2:But you know what? You never see full-size candy bars anymore. No, they're always fun size.
Speaker 1:Sad.
Speaker 2:And they are fun, but I would like full, full size.
Speaker 1:They're just getting the party started, and now you're already finished eating your candy bar.
Speaker 2:I know it's not fun. It's like a little fun appetizer.
Speaker 1:Okay, we need some more music again. Hold on. Okay, we've already played the bed again. Okay, I know. Okay, we'll do it right again. Okay, so it's September 17th. What's going on Today is National Rice Krispie Treat Day. Could make such good rice krispies, I do too.
Speaker 2:I do too. In 1940, kellogg's trademarked the name Rice Krispie Trees. Now we're about to get into something weird.
Speaker 1:This is bizarre. I did not know this until this morning.
Speaker 2:I have an idea let's play it first and then tell them who sings it.
Speaker 1:Okay, here is a Rice Krispies jingle from 1963.
Speaker 5:Do you know who that was? You wouldn't have. No, I wouldn't have.
Speaker 2:That was the Rolling Stones, that was Mick Jagger, that was him. They went from the Rice Krispies jingle to this a year or so later and what we were looking at before the show when we were doing show prep is that this jingle came out before their popular song, so they did this jingle before they got popular I wonder if it's like an embarrassing question.
Speaker 1:Later say hey, mick jagger, remember the rice krispies jingle that you did?
Speaker 2:wake up in the morning. That is crazy, they were they started.
Speaker 1:I read a few pieces said they also consider doing I Can't Get no Honey Smacks. Honky. Tonk Waffles and Brown Sugar Pop Tarts. Honky.
Speaker 2:Tonk Waffles.
Speaker 1:Brown Sugar Pop Tarts.
Speaker 2:Why do they taste so good?
Speaker 1:But that's a little weird piece of information. We'll have to ask Ted McCreelys when he comes in.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that's such a good idea. He's a huge Rolling Stones fan, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:Ted's so old he used to babysit Keith Richards. No yeah. No. He's so old.
Speaker 2:No, I'm moving on. Okay. On Monday, Thomas Drett announced the dates and locations for his Better in Boots tour in 2025. Better in Boots Tour 2025.
Speaker 1:I've seen Thomas in concert. He puts on a great show Really In Birmingham. I saw him a few years ago.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, the run of shows begins in June of next year, so Tucker Wetmore will be a direct sponsor or support, sorry, direct support on the tour, along with special guests, the Castellos, castellos, castellos.
Speaker 1:Dasha, the Castellos are coming, they're coming. So they got a new single coming, or actually a single coming. Okay, they're supposed to have a big 2025. Oh, imagine being Tucker Wetmore. The guy has one song and Thomas Rhett says hey, will you be my opening act?
Speaker 2:I know he just picks him up, that's gonna unreal skyrocket him. The closest date to us is June 27th of next year in Birmingham at Venue.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they haven't announced which location yet.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, hey, I read that Oak Mountain, I didn't know Venue was like a venue Shutting down.
Speaker 1:What Oak Mountain Epitheater? Yeah, what Mm-hmm? Why? I think it's outdated. I think because you got like the Orion and Huntsville, so they're going to build another one in Birmingham.
Speaker 2:That breaks my heart.
Speaker 1:I've seen so many good shows there. I have too.
Speaker 2:Oh, no, yeah, that's where I saw Kiss.
Speaker 1:And that's where I saw Thomas Redd.
Speaker 2:That's where I saw Poison, yeah. That's where I saw all my good shows, oh man yeah. And then June 28, 2005,. He's going to be in Orange Beach at the Wharf Amphitheater.
Speaker 1:I've always wanted to go see a show there.
Speaker 2:I was about to say if you want a trip to go to the beach, plan it on June 28th, go see Thomas Redd next year. All right, all right. Here's some things to think about.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Do you think you know leaf blowers?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I used to have one.
Speaker 2:Okay, what if you had a leaf blower, but it worked on people?
Speaker 1:Like you, go to.
Speaker 2:Walmart and you just clear the aisles.
Speaker 1:Yeah, or you walk into work in the meeting. Somebody's in your chair.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, just blow them away yeah.
Speaker 1:Shoot them in the corner.
Speaker 2:Or when I'm sitting at my desk and certain people come and linger.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I would love to take out the people blower and go crank it up and point it Come and linger.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I would love to take out the people blower and go Crank it up and point it right towards your face, I would, I would with no remorse. Part their hair, part their nose hair.
Speaker 2:And tell me if you've ever thought about this the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
Speaker 1:You ever thought about that before? Because the first mouse is laying there stuck to the pad. He's got a little piece of wire in his hand and the mouse says I'll get that. Thank you.
Speaker 2:I'll take that, thank you.
Speaker 1:And then he says, how about a little rolling stone? This morning? I said, sure, wake up in the morning Get a smile around the face. Wake up in the morning. That is so bizarre, it's weird.

By the way, big thank you to Anna Weathers-Smith with Main Street Realty Plus and Miguel Corona, allstate Insurance, sponsoring this month's podcast. We appreciate that very much. Since you've been gone, things that happened when you were gone. How about Prince Harry? He's about to be like a multimillionaire.
Speaker 2:He got a little chunk of change left for him. So Prince Harry just turned 40 and he's reportedly set to receive $10.5 million from a trust fund established by the Queen Mother for her great-grandchildren. Wow, ten and a half million dollars.
Speaker 1:For turning 40.
Speaker 2:Just for Happy birthday.
Speaker 1:All I got was a few wrinkles.
Speaker 2:See, I dread turning 40. If I was Prince Harry, I would be counting down the days Like day number 1,272.
Speaker 1:They say he got more than William did at that age because William is also a part of a trust fund by being the next king down the road. So somehow Harry got more money than Prince William.
Speaker 2:Oh, I wonder why.
Speaker 1:We don't know. We don't know the details.
Speaker 2:And this is sad. Tito Jackson, I know Tito Jackson, a founding member of the Jackson Five. I love the Jackson.
Speaker 1:Five.
Speaker 2:Are you going to play me Okay.
Speaker 1:I was about to say they were so good in that. They were so good Little Michael and he was so cute, I know At their front you could just tell he was going to be.
Speaker 2:Tito was one of the older ones, right.
Speaker 1:He was in the back. Yeah, I think yeah.
Speaker 2:Right, I hate to hear that Sunday at the age of 70. I'm glad you put that because on the news they weren't telling For a while they weren't really telling, but it was a heart attack.
Speaker 1:According to sources this morning yeah, okay, that's what happened he was 70 years old.
Speaker 2:He was joined by his brothers Michael, jermaine, jackie and Marlon in the original chart-topping Jackson 5.
Speaker 1:They had a lot of hits.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they did. They did a good job.
Speaker 1:Very good.
Speaker 2:And this is so funny. This is Mayor Is this your daughter.
Speaker 1:This is her.
Speaker 2:No, we're not from Ohio. In Ohio, an eight-year-old girl took her family's SUV she's eight Eight and drove to Target 13 miles away Wow, and she was found shopping.
Speaker 1:Okay, it's an SUV, yeah, a lot of times the seats are, you know, a little harder to reach pedals or something, depending on how big they are.
Speaker 2:She was eight and she took the family's SUV, which is crazy scary, yes, but also dangerous, but also hilarious. And they found her. She was shopping inside of the Target.
Speaker 1:So she made it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she made it. She said that she had a couple mailboxes on the way that was about it, but hey, that's pretty good for 13 miles.
Speaker 1:Not bad, that's scary.
Speaker 2:And the good thing is she's too young to face criminal charges.
Speaker 1:It could have killed her.
Speaker 2:I know that's scary.
Speaker 1:And others.
Speaker 2:It's funny to laugh at, but for real dangerous.
Speaker 1:Oh, she's lucky, she made it out alive.
Speaker 2:Like what are you doing that you don't notice? Your child is gone with your car.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Where are you at?
Speaker 1:I mean the child, and the SUV is gone.
Speaker 2:The 8-year-old and the SUV are both gone. I would think somebody has came in my house, kidnapped my child and taken my car and sold my vehicle. But nope, she was found.
Speaker 1:I wonder how they found her inside of target. I don't know, do they just pull up and check and see where the vehicle was? And they tracked it down there?
Speaker 2:I don't know, but imagine walking up eight years old. You just drove 13 miles.
Speaker 1:You're in target, living your best life oh yeah, shopping I wonder where she got the money too. Did she take mom's card, or probably? Took the whole purse she took the key probably did yeah where she got the key or the key file was in in the purse.
Speaker 2:I wonder what she was shopping for.
Speaker 1:It's probably out of crayon Like squishmallows or something Probably. She was out of balloons. She had a real big project for school the next day. Had that blue crayon.
Speaker 2:Then my girls just got to take care of themselves sometimes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's scary, no no. Better hide those keys.
Speaker 1:On Alabama's country giant WQSB Full moon. Uh-oh, we've had one this morning as you're coming in, but this is a special one, yeah. But somebody mentioned on the comment that, hey, we just found out there's something special tonight. There really is. It's called a partial lunar eclipse. It's along with the super moon, so the super moon alone is going to make it look just a little bit closer and brighter. Then you throw in a partial lunar eclipse. It's going to start later tonight. Roughly about 730, 740, they say, is when you can start seeing this and looking at the map. Yes, our area is in a perfect spot to see it.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So Lisa Cannon posted on Facebook. She tagged me. She said Barry and Holly just announced on WQSB that we're supposed to have a special full moon tonight. To all my fellow educators and healthcare workers we've got this. Stay strong.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So about the time sun is going down, it's already down. That's when it's going to start and it's going to last a couple of hours. Now, it's not going to be like a full lunar eclipse, it's going to be partial, like the top of it, but it also should be able to give it just a little bit of a red glow. Tonight, the moon, I'm going to like that. I think this is our first full moon. We may have two this month, I don't remember. I don't know, but anyway, it's called a super moon because of its size and brightness and it's also due to be eclipsed by Earth as it rises into the late summer skies. It always occurs at a full moon phase, when Earth is positioned between the moon and the sun and it's going to be a partial. So when these three bodies align, earth's shadow falls upon the surface of the moon, dimming it and causing odd changes in its appearance, which means you could see kind of a reddish glow to the moon for an hour or so.
Speaker 2:I have questions.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So if the Earth is in the middle, I should probably ask you this off air. I don't want to be dumb. Well, okay, if the Earth is in the middle, the sun's on one side, the moon's on the other side how do we see the overlapping of the two? I have no idea.
Speaker 1:I'm just reading what I was given here. I mean really do you know what I mean. I know what you mean.
Speaker 2:Like if it's lined up sun, earth, moon how do you see the?
Speaker 1:overlap Well, like the total eclipse that we had back early. The moon went in front of the sun.
Speaker 2:It cycles around right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it went in front of the sun. That's when we had the total eclipse here months ago.
Speaker 2:Do we cycle the moon or does the moon cycle us?
Speaker 1:You're asking the wrong guy. I went to school mainly to enjoy lunch and PE.
Speaker 2:I majored in PE and minored in lunch my teachers out there like holly, we taught you better than this. Yeah, but I didn't pay attention that. I'll read it again, okay, okay earth, shadow shadow.
Speaker 1:The shadow falls upon the shadow so the shadow, so the sun hits the earth, and then the earth's shadow will hit the moon. That's why part of the earth's shadow will cover part of the moon. I'm still a little lost here, but I get it, we're kind of in the middle, but the sun will hit the earth in the right angle and our shadow will be on part of the moon. So if you get a full eclipse, we cover the entire part of the moon. This time it's only going to cover up part of it.
Speaker 2:So part of the moon. This time it's only going to cover up part of it, so part of the earth is just being beat down by the sun. Basically, yeah, the bottom part it may explode, okay, okay I don't know, we don't know anything could happen?
Speaker 1:I don't know, what it was yeah, but anyway, the uh that's what's going to happen. So tonight at 7 40 is will be the peak for us to see it and it's going to last a couple of hours, okay.
Speaker 2:well, I wouldn't set my alarm, that's right as I go to bed About sundown.
Speaker 1:Before you go to bed, go outside and just take a look.
Speaker 2:Oh, take a little peek yeah but it should be beautiful.
Speaker 1:You're probably going to see some fantastic photos because in some areas it's going to have like, so it should be fun, it's 647.
Speaker 3:Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly.
Speaker 1:Topper Holly's pile of stories, netflix renewing another show, shabuzy tearing it up and Jordan Childs, the USA gymnast, back of the news. So what? All is going on.
Speaker 2:So Netflix renewed Emily in Paris for a fifth season. I've never seen this. I hated it Really.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I didn't like it at all, is it like a Hallmark type thing?
Speaker 2:Yes, it's too cheesy for me. I don't know. Nobody throw rocks at me.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry, I just don't like it Okay, so I should stay away.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you would not like it. It had a big debut in season four, part two, so renew it for the fifth season. But never mind, I'm gonna. I was about to squirrel, but I'll keep going. I'll keep going. Okay, I'm gonna tell you anyway. Okay, I've been watching this show there. Okay, I've been watching this show. Yeah, it's the secret lives of mormon wives oh no it's on hulu. Yeah, it's wild, it is berry it's a reality show.
Speaker 1:it's a reality show, it's a reality show.
Speaker 2:And like I said, this is a complete squirrel moment. If you are listening out there and you love drama, but not to be involved in it, you just love to watch it Don't watch it with your kids around. It's dirty, gotcha. I know you'd be surprised. These women do like crazy things. Those.
Speaker 1:Mormon wives.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Will Brumvillow told me about this show. He's like my wife loves it Will's to blame, then Will's to blame.
Speaker 2:Well, actually probably Ariel is his wife, because we like a lot of the same things. He talks about things she likes and I'm like, oh, I like that too, like Taylor Swift and this Secret Lives of More and More Lives. I need somebody to watch this out there so I can talk to you about it. I need to talk to somebody about this show. It's crazy. So, moving on Shaboosie's bar song, tipsy, you're all tore up. I am.

Speaker 1:On all formats.
Speaker 2:Shaboozy, a bar song.
Speaker 1:He'll never have to work again.
Speaker 2:I know, but do you think he will?
Speaker 1:He don't have to because he co-wrote it, so being also a writer, yeah.
Speaker 2:I didn't know. He co-wrote that. He's gonna. He's doing well, trust me. Also on the billboard hot 100 top 10, post malone's I had some help featuring morgan wallen holds at number two, while sabrina carpenter replaces replaces three songs in the top 10 for a third consecutive week.

Speaker 2:The USA gymnast Jordan Childs is fighting to overturn the decision that stripped her of a bronze medal in the women's gymnastic floor event in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Speaker 1:And she was done wrong.
Speaker 2:She was done wrong.
Speaker 1:Because they had proof that it wasn't done right and they wouldn't even hear their argument.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you know what? The child's attorneys filed for an appeal with the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland.
Speaker 1:That sounds very official, so they could possibly overturn this.
Speaker 2:I mean they could. They're going to court for it?
Speaker 1:I hope so.
Speaker 2:I hope they do too. Give Jordan the medal.
Speaker 1:Or give both of them a bronze. If nothing else, give the other girl and her both a bronze.

Speaker 1:TikTokers eating dirt. Why yes? It's a new trend on TikTok Eating edible dirts and clay. Now the act of eating clays? I didn't know. This has been practiced for hundreds of years and it's usually practiced in a way to consume minerals that could be lacking in someone's diet. I've never heard of this.
Speaker 2:Like zinc yeah.
Speaker 1:Okay. However, some TikTokers claim that their clays can remove toxins, help with acne and improve your mood.
Speaker 2:Okay, I will say this.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I have a clay mask that I use and it is very good for the skin, but I don't need it Go ahead.
Speaker 1:One TikToker has racked up millions of views chewing on dirt and clay patties in front of her followers. It's Gracie Marie, I think. Anyway, a professor says you've got to be careful. There would of course, be contaminations in dirt dirt, he said. I would especially worry about heavy metals. He advises anyone who wants to eat clay for health benefits to first seek help from a medical professional. Let them guide you on what to eat.
Speaker 2:Don't just grab clay and definitely don't just grab dirt and begin eating it I think these people have like an iron deficiency or something and they're like looking I don't know why are they eating dirt?
Speaker 1:don't eat dirt. I know kids, when they're little bitty they don't understand and they might be making, I don't know, like mud pies. You know, sitting outside and take a bite of it, that's innocent, they don't mean to, they're just. But when you get older you know better, quit eating dirt, don't eat dirt.
Speaker 2:Don't eat dirt out there or clay. It's weird.
Speaker 1:No, just think of it this way there could have been a dog or a cat that peed on it.
Speaker 2:Or worse.
Speaker 1:Or worse, and you're sitting there eating dirt. There's got to be at least a crustable in the house or something or some cookies, or a cracker or a lunchable.
Speaker 2:It's got to be. Come by this station. We'll give you some peanuts or something. Yeah, we'll find something. We'll find something.
Speaker 1:If it was meant to be called a dirtable, but it's not.
Speaker 4:It's a lunchable.
Speaker 1:Yes, eat lunchable, but not a dirtable. No, say no to the dirt, never the dirtable. But that is weird, yeah, but anyway, I haven't seen the TikToks of them doing this.
Speaker 2:I've never seen it, but there's so many weird trends on there that I've seen. I don't understand it. And I love TikTok. I love to scroll TikTok, but I don't get outside of my For you page because there's some weird stuff out there.
Speaker 1:Very strange. Just because you see people doing it doesn't mean it's okay to do it.
Speaker 2:Don't eat the dirt.
Speaker 1:No, do not eat the dirt. Alright time for the quote of the day. What have you got for us today?
Speaker 2:The right one for you, will move the mountains to be with you. He won't hide behind them.
Speaker 4:Ooh, yes.
Speaker 1:That's a good thought.
Speaker 2:That is a good thought they could go for he or she the one, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:The right one. They'll do anything they can to be with you and do anything they can for you.
Speaker 2:And they won't hide behind them.
Speaker 1:No, they won't.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they'll show you their true selves and move those mountains.
Speaker 1:You are correct, it's 7-15.
Speaker 3:Barry and Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:Some food stories Go back a few months ago. Burger King had a contest they're going to give away a million dollars if you design a Whopper that they decide to use. So we both designed one. You had to include all ingredients that should be on it. It's been so long ago I don't remember what I even put.
Speaker 2:I don't have ranch dressing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's been like three or four months they had fried onions, and I forget what else was on there and I don't remember. But anyway, they've narrowed it down to the final three, and then one of these three actually all three of these will go on sale later this fall, and then one of the three will be chosen as the winner. I think we get to vote and the winner gets a million dollars.
Speaker 2:Ooh, so what flavors do they have?
Speaker 1:See, if you would try these. Okay, the one is a guy named Fabian created the fried pickle ranch Whopper.
Speaker 2:Is that not what you just said? You created?
Speaker 1:That's what I thought basically, but it's got some other ingredients on it. Okay, then there's Calvin, who has the maple bourbon barbecue Whopper.
Speaker 2:Ooh, I'd try that. And then there's Kelsey who has the Mexican street corn Whopper Interesting it is interesting.
Speaker 1:Mmm, yeah, but going back to the fried pickle ranch, I had those, but you had to do like four or five ingredients. Yeah, maybe some of mine were different, I don't know, but I think this Fabian guy pretty much copied my idea. Yeah, and I may file a lawsuit.
Speaker 2:Well, you may have to, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so what else is going on?
Speaker 2:Well, m&m's are dropping something for the holidays and I'm so excited because they are Toasty Holiday Peanut M&M's. Ooh, toasty, yes, it's not just the traditional M&M's, but they feature cinnamon, vanilla, spiced sugar and caramel flavors.
Speaker 1:That sounds good.
Speaker 2:That's going to be so good. I'm definitely going for that and the peanuts are toasted, apparently, mm-hmm.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I have to try these.
Speaker 2:Yep, toasted, apparently. Okay, yeah, try these yep. And then am I doing amazon? I'd go right ahead. Yeah, okay, amazon fresh launches new budget-friendly brand, amazon saver.
Speaker 1:So you know how store has store brands sure there's a great value club stuff like that yeah stuff like that.
Speaker 2:So amazon is doing the same exact thing. They're calling it amazon saver and, according to the announcement, the goal is to help grocery budgets go further. The private label will include the essentials like crackers, cookies, canned fruit, condiments and more. Most of the stuff will be priced under $5. And if you're a Prime member, you get an additional 10% off.
Speaker 1:That's a great idea. That's a great idea. Yeah.
Speaker 2:So they have it on here. They've got turkey breast pancake syrup, coffee creamer, garlic powder, so seasonings, graham crackers, sweet peas it looks like they're going to have a lot of stuff under this brand.
Speaker 1:I like it, because we need some help.
Speaker 2:We all need some help Because the prices are so high.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm they are. We'll have to try these and see what they taste like. It tastes like Yep, All right 728.
Speaker 3:WQSB Mornings with Barry and.
Speaker 1:Holly Will needs to come in for this one. We're bringing in Will Brumwell. He has no choice on this one First of all he's got on his United Way Day of Caring shirt.
Speaker 2:Yes, he does. Okay, we're about to Hold on, we've got to get into good.
Speaker 1:Come on, man, Good morning y. You may have to go help us do some good deeds later today, but before we go we've got to give you something you can talk about. There's a new sport that's spreading the world and I don't know if you've ever looked into hobby horsing.
Speaker 4:Yes, I've seen videos of the hobby horse.
Speaker 1:Yes, okay, have you tried this at home? I cannot. Okay, holly, let's try to describe this the best we can.
Speaker 2:Okay, so it's a horse with a stick on it, the kind that you give your four-year-old.
Speaker 1:A horse's head. Horse's head yeah, and that's really it.
Speaker 2:And then they hurtle.
Speaker 1:But there's now. It's a sport, finland. It's one of the hottest sports in Finland and they had another competition somewhere in Spain or something this weekend. The US is now doing it. This is not for kids Well, it can be, but it's for adults.
Speaker 2:So I don't understand the appeal of this.
Speaker 1:Is he watching the video?
Speaker 2:He's watching it, yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah, they look like about what I would expect to be hobby horsing.
Speaker 2:I mean, I was going to say I'm not judgmental, but look at these people that are riding these horses.
Speaker 4:Well see, and it looks like they do that every day, Like they just walk around holding a hobby horse, I'd be like, hey, y'all quit horsing around.
Speaker 1:Quit horsing around, Put the horse down. They have competitions. Okay, picture like the Olympics a few months ago, where the horses the equestrian part, where they were jumping over these fences and things People are doing it themselves. They're running around this course holding a stick horse between their legs and they're jumping over hurdles all the time. It looks like they're riding a horse, but it's actually a horse's head. It's a hobby horse.
Speaker 4:It says this has a longer stick because it gives me more space to move.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, you can't have a long stick when you have a hobby horse?
Speaker 1:I wouldn't think so, but she says you gotta hit those hurdles. But these riders are taking this so serious.
Speaker 2:Oh, they take it very serious.
Speaker 4:I wonder if they get done with one, if they have to send it off to the glue factory too.
Speaker 2:Oh, no, oh, I wonder if they retire their horses and get a new one or retired it to the farm name them. Yeah, or name you know here's pepper.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you would definitely have to name your horses would you retire them to the stick horse farm so they can? No, I would probably mate, that's what you do when you retire horses, really, basically I didn't know that.
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's useless to me it says the, the first one was first began in a parking lot.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 4:That guy was drunk.
Speaker 1:Police pulled up. What are you doing? What's a new sport? Semi-horsing. I have not been drinking. You're an officer. I have not been drinking.
Speaker 2:A man created this.
Speaker 1:I'm sure.
Speaker 2:These are all women contestants. Well, and look, I mean, they're for real serious about this.
Speaker 1:You said that some of these they cost up to $1,000. Yeah, the horses.
Speaker 4:She's fully focused, ready to win.
Speaker 1:It's a person running around the course doing the jumps just like a horse would, but it's a person doing it.
Speaker 2:Or like you do in track and field when you're hitting the hurdles yeah, that's what they're doing, but they have a riding horse, it's on a stick it's a penalty if you let go of the reins.
Speaker 4:Oh, I didn't know that's what he said you're judged on.
Speaker 1:There's even judges you judge on technique and execution. Uh, style and creativity, overall performance, gait, consistency, impulse and energy, I'm sorry, energy. I'm sure you're injured. I'm sure you are Stick rods up on you, you're in the wrong spot.
Speaker 2:This is why women do it. These girls can leap?
Speaker 1:Use of aids and turnout, whatever that means.
Speaker 2:Okay, I don't. I would like to see the creativity aspect of this. I want to see how creative they are with this probably make horse noises when they run you think so?
Speaker 4:what is this piercing right here? A septum, every single.
Speaker 2:Every single one of them has a septum piercing. Yeah and this is true, it may have punctured their brain One of them has green hair, one of them has blue hair, one of them has pink hair. I mean really Wow. And like I said, not judging, not judging. If this is your thing, then just ride the stick, girl.
Speaker 1:Well, when your daughters get older, they say Mom's a mama.
Speaker 2:I'm on a hobby horse.
Speaker 1:Joe School is having a hobby horse team, I want to join.
Speaker 2:I'll say I support you, daughter.

Speaker 1:But anyway, you can see the video on our Facebook page.
Speaker 2:You've got to see the video. You've got to watch this.

Speaker 3:Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:Mama's got a squeeze box that he never sleeps at night. That must mean Rachel is close by. Oh, look, there she is now Woo-hoo, there she is. She has landed. She's in the room. I'm here. Yes, it's a fantastic morning, janet.
Speaker 2:Yes, I had to give her a little shout-out this morning Shout-out Janet, we love you, we all love you.
Speaker 4:Does she like knowledge nuggets too? Yes, she does. Oh good, does it make her smarter?
Speaker 1:I don't know about that I don't know.
Speaker 2:If it makes anybody smarter Barry, it should I mean Because you work hard on these. I mean, I know, but I don't know if smarter would be the word.
Speaker 1:Okay, what would you call it then? Smarter, full of it.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah, 100%.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, you are then. Yeah, I know You've accomplished it.
Speaker 2:Then I know.
Speaker 1:Well, we need some knowledge nuggets then. So what have you got lined up today?
Speaker 2:28% of people take a selfie an average of seven times before they're satisfied with the photo. Seven.
Speaker 4:I think that's a higher percentage you think so yeah, yeah, I think.
Speaker 2:You a higher percentage. You think so yeah, yeah, I think.
Speaker 1:You take a lot of pictures.
Speaker 2:I know, but I don't know that I would take it seven. I feel like after the third or fourth time, if I'm not getting a good one, I'm like it's not for me today, it's not the day today.
Speaker 1:Do you think the younger the person, the more times they take one.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't put an age on it, because I think that no matter what age you are whether you're 7 or 70, you're going to criticize the way you look.
Speaker 1:I think more kids do it because they've got to have it, just right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:They've got to be perfect. Yeah, then they'll change it the very next day.
Speaker 2:Do you ever take selfies, rach? No, you don't. No, I just don't like them of myself. Yeah, I don't. Barry takes selfies. No, I don't. You took one this morning.
Speaker 1:No, I don't, you took it.
Speaker 2:You took it.
Speaker 1:Well, I had to hold your phone.
Speaker 2:We took a picture this morning. Well, like Ted Lasso, take more than one person. Yeah, it's an ussy. It's not a selfie anymore. I like it. Only 5% of people grow pumpkins to eat them each year You've grown one. I have grown a pumpkin, Rachel. I have a pumpkin at my house.
Speaker 1:Are you going to eat it?
Speaker 2:I'm growing it. It's still in the vine Are you going to eat it? No, I'm not going to eat it.
Speaker 1:I see you're one of the 5%, then no, no, I'm not.
Speaker 4:I'm one of the 95%.
Speaker 1:I agree with that because we saw something yesterday on the news. It showed the pumpkin like a record 1,800 pounds. Yeah, somebody broke a record. Yeah, in some country. Yeah, and you could not eat that. He didn't grow it to eat it, he grew it to win this award. Well, holly's is still growing, so she may reach that?
Speaker 2:How many pounds is it?
Speaker 1:now would you guess, Probably four. Ooh, about four pounds.
Speaker 2:It's probably. It's pretty big, it's wide, it's really pretty. You fertilizing it? No, oh. But I will say hey, is pumpkin pie made out of real pumpkin Like? Is that what that is for real? I would think so. I have no idea. Because like think about how creamy and good, like sweet it is, and think about how gross and nasty.
Speaker 1:What else would it be made of?
Speaker 2:Well, I don't know, but think about how nasty the pumpkins are when you go to carve them and how gross yeah, do you carve pumpkins?
Speaker 1:I did once, you did once. It turned out okay, but two weeks later it was stinking and it wasn't even Halloween yet.
Speaker 2:They do, then they collapsed they, they do Then they collapse, they do that.
Speaker 1:So now, reagan would just always draw on it, paint them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what we do Use a Sharpie and draw it. That's what we do. What do you do at your house?
Speaker 4:Well, we would carve them? You would, yeah, but they don't last very long once you do that, I know.
Speaker 2:They look like a little old man with no teeth sunk in.
Speaker 1:Rachel likes the whole knife against a person's hair.
Speaker 2:She don't like Mrs Currington says. Yes, it is made out of real pumpkin. What else could it have been, barry? I don't know, I'm just asking a question. Apples, no, but the thing is, is the only thing that I've ever, no, the only thing that I've ever Lime no Experience with a pumpkin is that nasty string goopy stuff yeah so what is it? Do they scrape the inside of?
Speaker 1:it until you get non-stringy goopy stuff and get the good stuff but that's not a lot, I think.
Speaker 4:You scoop out all the seeds and the goopy stuff and then use the rest of the pumpkin for the pumpkin pie what's the goopy stuff for just?
Speaker 1:throw it away at somebody. Have a pumpkin pie fight.
Speaker 2:Ew, that'd be so gross. Women go on a diet an average of 16 times in their lifetime. Whoa, I'm going to say that is a low number, I agree. Yep, I go on a diet just about every week. There's 52 weeks in a year. I'm 36.

Speaker 1:Rachel didn't come in here for this. Rachel, it's wonderful. She wanted more.

Speaker 5:Or have you ever had to? No, I haven't ever had to. You just have a high metabolism.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I do. Well, I don't. I have no metabolism, mine's non-existent, and I have been on a diet probably one million times in my life.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I think that number was a little low myself.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think 16 is low.

Speaker 3:Barry and Holly On Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:Yesterday on our Facebook page we put a lot of unusual, interesting stories and this kind of thing bothers me because I mean, I don't have to buy it, I'm not going to, but in Chicago there's a martini served at, is it Adelina? Adelina, yeah, was that like a bar? What is that exactly?
Speaker 2:I don't know, I've never, been there.
Speaker 1:They now claim to have been serving the most expensive martini in the world $13,000. Martini is made with a rare Mezcal. What is that?
Speaker 2:Tequila.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, then heirloom tomato, chili liqueur, lemon, basil, olive oil and a diamond tennis necklace also goes with it. And what bothers me is there's people who are buying this for $13,000, which it's your money. Do what you want to do with it, but look at all the goods you could do with that $13,000, instead of buying a martini, which is going to be like a couple of sips and it's gone. Yes, you get the tennis bracelet, but still. But anyway, can you imagine spending $13,000 on a martini?
Speaker 2:I could take my kids to Disney World, you know, yes, like I could. That's a life-changing amount of money.
Speaker 1:Look at the money you could give to some of these shelters and some of these hospitals and stuff, St Jude things like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah $13,000. $13,000. That's probably only ordered when you're about 13,000 drinks in Like hey, you know what? Bring out that $13,000 martini, I'm ready baby, let's go.
Speaker 1:Then the next day you're looking over what all you spent. The last year's bank It'll come to the bank account Pops up on your phone saying, oh, by the way, you spent $13,000 on a martini At Adelina in.

Speaker 3:819. Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly hey you ever had a speeding ticket?
Speaker 2:I've had one. What, yes, I?
Speaker 1:remember that story going to the beach, the girls were young, I was by myself.
Speaker 2:They were screaming crying Awful. Yeah, sorry.
Speaker 1:So how much was it when you had to pay it? Do you remember?
Speaker 2:I think it was about $800. Oh my goodness. Well, it was down south so I couldn't go to court. It was almost on the Florida line, gotcha, so it was like five hours away.
Speaker 1:All I can say is at least Lisa was at $1.4 million like this guy. Whoa.
Speaker 1:Yeah, a Georgia man was issued a $1.4 million speeding ticket. He was doing 90 miles an hour in a 55-mile-per-hour zone. You're saying how can that be? Well, connor, connor Cato said it stunned him when he saw it. He said I knew I was going to be fined for speeding, but $1.4 million beyond comprehension, he said. When he called the Savannah court he was told the amount was no mistake. Fortunately, a representative later explained that the amount was auto-generated and the fine would not exceed $1,000. It was a mistake, but it was all about the computer that made the mistake. So yes, see, computers can make mistakes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so I guess I was going to say the person who has a $1.4 million Sweden ticket could also pay for a $13,000 martini. Yeah, but it was a computer mistake. Yes $1.4 million. Do you think if he had had that money and sent it in, do you think somebody would have caught it and been like, oh, we owe him a million dollars I'm gonna say no that's what I think.
Speaker 1:I think they would keep it because it sounds like the person he first spoken spoke to wasn't gonna try to help him fix this, because she basically said, yep, it's what it is, when common sense would tell you nope, it's got to be a mistake, not a million Got to be.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was going 65 and a 35. Yeah, but it wasn't of like houses around, there was no like little kids playing out in the yard or a school nearby.
Speaker 1:You didn't pass a school bus or nothing.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no, no. It was a straight shot of nothingness and the speed limit was 55. And then all of a sudden dropped down to 35. It was like a speed trap. They were watching the people, they knew I was coming. They knew. As soon as I saw the front grill of the police car, I said, oh no, oh no, but I cannot imagine spending being charged $1.4 million.
Speaker 1:No, that would just ruin a vacation, wouldn't it? Yeah, it would, yeah. Something to think about this morning. And Holly says yes. Then she says no, researchers in Cameroon have discovered eating grasshoppers is good for your hair and for better sleep. Yeah, a grasshopper-based diet. Being grasshopper-based, I would think that means eating more than one.
Speaker 2:I was about to say how many grasshoppers are we talking? So what are the benefits?
Speaker 1:It says they found that according to this, they found that feeding these to rats they changed their diet, gave them mostly grasshoppers. They had a healthier weight, better sleep patterns and shinier hair after 12 weeks of eating a grasshopper-based diet. So the rats are the ones that they did the study on, and some humans also tried this and they too said that it showed they slept better and they had healthier hair.
Speaker 2:So three months of eating grasshoppers, mostly grasshoppers.
Speaker 1:Mostly grasshoppers.
Speaker 2:And you have better hair yeah, healthier weight? Of course you do, and better sleep patterns. Probably because your blood sugar is so low, you're in a coma.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm out. I'm out on it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it would have to be mixed in with something like if I could mix them with something else like maybe a good serving of hamburger hopper. That was actually a good one, was it?
Speaker 4:Yeah, I'm pretty harsh on you, but that one was a good one.
Speaker 1:Thank you very much. I'm here till nine, then I'm going to clean the house. That's what we're doing yeah, but seriously, it has to mix with something. There's no way I could eat just a like, even fried.
Speaker 2:No, that's what it's done like. Listen, let me tell you. I was sitting out on my porch this weekend and a grasshopper that was probably about two inches long came and landed on my leg, and the way I freaked out and screamed there's no way I could grab one and just I'd be concerned.
Speaker 1:If you're eating, your dog would leave the home. It would run away he should.
