Speaker 2:Good morning, good morning, morning Morning.
Speaker 4:Good morning Morning. Morning Broadcasting live from high atop Alabama's beautiful Sand Mountain. Please welcome your hosts, Barry. Normally, if given a choice between doing something and nothing, I'd choose to do nothing. But I will do something if it helps someone else do nothing. I'd work all night if it meant nothing got done.
Speaker 2:And hollering. Was I wearing a tiara when I came in here? Because, if you happen upon it, will you have Lady Pennyface retrieve it and send it post-hence. Oh, someone's being naughty, not nice. You know, santa's watching you.
Speaker 1:WQS. Good morning. I'm not sure that Santa's watching right now. I mean, I think he takes maybe February off.
Speaker 2:No, he's always watching.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I don't know why people always wait until we start talking and start calling, because you're just wasting your time, because it's going to ring and ring and ring.
Speaker 2:That sounds kind of rude.
Speaker 1:Well, there's two of us. Yeah, to answer the phone we have to turn the microphones off and say hello, good morning.
Speaker 2:Well, we'll see what they want in a minute.
Speaker 1:So this is more important right here, because we're listening to Redbone. Most people go back and watch Guardians of the Galaxy.
Speaker 2:Did you tell me they're a one-hit wonder?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But hey, that one hit that's still being played. It was in Guardians of the Galaxy, it's in commercials, so if they're alive, they're still getting money off of it.
Speaker 2:Oh good.
Speaker 1:And if you're alive, you walk outside. This morning you'll wish you could go back inside. It is cold. You're looking at it's 16 here, but the wind chill feels like three. Ooh, here's. This is the last morning of this. Hopefully we're going to see for maybe a year.
Speaker 4:We hope.
Speaker 1:As far as this kind of weather, it's going to be cold. Yes, yeah. Winter's not over, but today gets better. The warm-up begins 44 behind. Later today the wind will be strong, but not as strong. Wind's 10 to 15 miles an hour, tonight, 24. So hey, I know that's cold, but it's better than 16.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's better than 16.
Speaker 1:Tomorrow 50. Sunday 54. Then by the middle part of next week, how about mid upper 60s and around 70. That's more like it. Yeah, that's more like it. So this morning, cold morning, kids heading back to school. Today, crazy weather again. Where'd all that snow come from? Yesterday morning? That wasn't supposed to happen I don't know that was so weird, but I loved it we were driving to jacksonville's, like we were driving up north, like, uh, driving across the frozen tundra on our way.
Speaker 2:Beautiful, it was oh my gosh, I loved it, but I will say I kept getting distracted by it. Yeah, I've had a bunch of squirrel moments where I was just gay because the window is behind your head yeah, yeah, I know the window is behind your head so I have to.
Speaker 2:I'm looking at you, talking to you doing the show, but then, out of the corner of my eye, I see this magical white fluff falling from the sky and there's birds coming down with bows and they come flying in the window and tie them to your hair. What.
Speaker 1:Then they put on gold glass slippers on your feet and you ride off in a chariot. A chariot yeah, I don't want to be in a chariot today.
Speaker 2:Oh no, not today. Only if it's heated and enclosed, it's not going to be.
Speaker 1:Well, the weather's getting better, so a weekend does look better. Stuff coming up Old, so a weekend does look better. Stuff coming up. Old Dominion concert tickets. We have a pair Don't even go on sale until a week from today, but we've got you some, so be listening for the special sounder. We're not going to tell you when to call. It's a piece of about three or four Old Dominion songs pieced together and the sound of somebody calling. That's going to happen sometime before nine. So I guess you had the first winner yesterday on the show.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we did. We had our first winner.
Speaker 1:They did a really good job at guessing this stuff Good good, and thank you to Tyler May for sitting in with me as I travel to Jacksonville State. My basketball season's over, because when you go to Birmingham the state steps in. They won't allow local radio to carry the basketball games.
Speaker 2:Aha.
Speaker 1:Which I think is unfair.
Speaker 2:That is unfair.
Speaker 1:Because you follow teams all year. Then they say, okay, but you've got to stop right here.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Check it at the door. Go home, we'll handle this from here. That makes me mad because you listen to some of the games and they're messing up the players' names. They have no clue who they're looking at.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know, that's how, and they couldn't pronounce his name Really. Yep the way it was spelled, they started calling him Shabuzy. I can see it. And he's like you know what? Yeah, I like that I can see it. Just a little fun fact for you.
Speaker 1:We got some Shabuzy news coming up later this morning. Big Honor, one of the top five most played songs in the world last year. Not just the US, but the world. Now They've got their world numbers out. So picture other countries. Like other people in Germany listening to Shibuzy. I could see that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was in a. I was getting a tattoo, oh.
Speaker 1:I know I did.
Speaker 2:Anyway, when we were doing it, we were listening to the Shibuzy album.
Speaker 3:The whole album, it's really good.
Speaker 1:It is.
Speaker 2:I like everything on there.
Speaker 1:He's a good writer he is.
Speaker 2:We thought we didn't know. When he first came out we were like, is he going to be a one-hit wonder?
Speaker 1:Yep we did.
Speaker 2:Or is he going to do it and he's coming through with it. What's the last news?
Speaker 1:no, no, no, the last of my kind yeah, yeah, yeah, on the commercial last night sounds good, don't it? It's a commercial was using it, which means he gets even more money off tv using it for a commercial. Go shabuzy, yes, yes. So a lot of stuff coming up. We'll be talking about the weekend weather, uh, other things going on coming up. We have a lot of big contests coming up soon. We're giving more details. If you to fish, the big catch fishing contest starts soon, so be thinking about that. When you catch a fish, take a picture of it. We'll be telling you how you can send it to us and be part of that and win like I think it's like a $50 gift certificate every week. I'm not sure, yeah, but we'll check on that.
Speaker 2:Did you see my daddy's fish?
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Oh, the tournament he won yeah.
Speaker 1:How about that?
Speaker 2:Number one.
Speaker 1:Won a tournament.
Speaker 2:Won a tournament that's impressive, like a big old, fat bass.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he and his partner. Hey, that was impressive.
Speaker 2:I know he did a good job, didn't he?
Speaker 1:Hey, we may see him on. He should compete with the big guys on TV and stuff.
Speaker 2:I mean he could, but Mama, she puts a limit on the fishing. Well you have to. Okay, we have that going on.
Speaker 1:We have the, you know, March Madness. I was waiting to see if lightning struck. Because officially we're not allowed to say March Madness together.
Speaker 2:It's mania.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, we can't say that because the NCAA has the rights to March Madness. We have to call it so. March Mania is coming up soon, giving you a chance to vote on your favorite country star in a tournament. We want to know who you like the best. I'm curious on this. We've picked out the 16 biggest according to numbers. It's not our 16 favorite, it's the ones that scientifically say they are the hottest.
Speaker 2:Scientifically it is oh wow, Scientific yes.
Speaker 1:Oh, wow, yeah.
Speaker 2:Scientific yes, oh wow.
Speaker 1:By numbers which ones are the most popular. So you'll have to vote and we'll see who's the most popular. We have the St Patrick's Day contest coming up.

Speaker 1:Yeah, we're making a big deal out of this. You're going to love the commercial.
Speaker 2:I wrote it.
Speaker 1:Holly wrote it. Holly wrote it.
Speaker 2:I wrote it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so we've got to work on it. We've got to. And thank you to Foodland. Yeah, they donated. We're going to tell them they donated pickles.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're filling it with pickles, but you're going to have to guess how many are in there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we have to count them out. Oh, I didn't of toilet. Why? Because we did a pot of gold St Patrick's Day contest. It really is a gold toilet.
Speaker 2:We're going to repaint it this weekend. Yeah, and this year it's a pickle pot of gold.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a pickle, putting pickles in it, so not just the regular, like the round ones, but also the spheres, the combination of the oh yeah, yeah, so we're making this tough.

Speaker 5:How do?
Speaker 1:you know Other things going on. Do you realize we only have one week left in this month? Today's the 21st. You forgot to pay it. I forgot to pay it. I knew you would. I tried to remind you 14 times. Should have reminded you that 15th, I guess.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that 15th time probably I would have done it.
Speaker 1:If you do it this morning, it'll be fine, because the bank hasn't opened yet. Oh yeah, it's fine, so okay. Actually, somebody just repoed it Hush.
Speaker 2:Barry, don't stress me out. They don't repo it after one day.
Speaker 1:I'm afraid they do. No, they don't. They're tough, it's tough.
Speaker 2:Tough company. It's out. February 21st is National Sticky Bun.
Speaker 1:Day. Yes, who named that?
Speaker 2:They said you know what? This bun is sticky.
Speaker 1:Sounds like the Showtime at Night movie.
Speaker 2:Sticky buns.
Speaker 1:Coming up following Harry Potter. It's sticky buns.
Speaker 2:Cinemax after dark. It's known as cinnamon rolls. I've never heard them called this, but caramel rolls.
Speaker 1:No, never heard that.
Speaker 2:Gross or monkey bread.
Speaker 1:Have you ever had monkey bread? To me there's a difference.
Speaker 2:Monkey bread Mother used to make this.
Speaker 1:And then she pours all the sticky glaze and then you pick out the piece you want. But to me a sticky bun or cinnamon roll Is just one roll. It's different.
Speaker 2:You know what cinnamon rolls I don't like? The ones that are like they come in the can and they just kind of flatten out. You get like one drop of icing for ten of them.
Speaker 1:You put them in the oven. Yeah, always burn the bottom of them. Yes, yes.
Speaker 2:Me too. I have to cut them off, and they're not done on top.
Speaker 1:I always burn the bottom of them.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep, that's what I do.
Speaker 1:And they're not done on top. I always burn the bottom up. Yep, yep, that's what I do.
Speaker 2:Exactly who's here. I have no idea. Okay, they have to come and get your Jeep. Oh gosh, yeah, really, there's somebody in the love. Don't take my Jeep. I'm kidding, here's your little. Something extra Sources say that the Pope's funeral is being planned and rehearsed. This is serious, after the 88-year-old warned he may not survive the pneumonia that he's diagnosed with.
Speaker 1:This is awful. That's awful. He's been very sick in the hospital and now he finds out that others are already planning his funeral. Seriously, this is awful.
Speaker 2:I know it's not funny. He's not even dead. It's not funny, he's not even dead. I'm laughing because I feel uncomfortable with how they're planning his funeral. He's not even bit the dust yet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I had heart surgery years ago, I can picture me laying in the bed and hearing talking out in the lobby and saying well, you know, he likes roses, white roses. Well, what else does he like? What song do you want to play? Yeah, we need so-and-so to sing. And I thought what do y'all do In case you don't make it, man?
Speaker 2:We've got to be ready to go. Yeah, imagine laying there and people being like hey Pope, sorry to bother you, but what kind of flowers do you like?
Speaker 1:Which robe do you want to be buried in, hey?
Speaker 2:I don't mean to wake you up, but which song do you want sang at your? You know, just in case.
Speaker 1:You want Adele? Yeah, you want Adele Beyonce.
Speaker 2:What do you want you?
Speaker 1:want Titanic? Yeah, just get some rest. You want Holly Moistella from the Barry and.
Speaker 2:Holly Morning Show and Albertville.
Speaker 1:Alabama to come.
Speaker 2:Titanic you up, but we think you're going to make it, though You're going to pull through right. Yeah, you're going to make it, though You're going to pull through right. Yeah, you're going to do great. Then they walk over and say he looks bad.
Speaker 1:Your numbers are great, pope, everything's looking great, and then they walk over and they're like dang, he looks bad. He's about to do it. He won't be here tomorrow.
Speaker 2:Mm-mm. That's awful.
Speaker 1:They're planning the funeral already.
Speaker 2:I mean he is and he knows about it. He is 88 years old.
Speaker 1:But still, it don't matter, you don't? And why is?
Speaker 2:this public knowledge.
Speaker 1:You know they've already got the TV special done. You know Netflix has a special ready to go. Oh yeah, ready to go. But, why go, but why is this already out in the public, like? I feel like this is something that should be somebody within the walls.
Speaker 2:I know castle only.
Speaker 1:Whatever that place, vatican it's probably one of the new pope, wannabes released it released the statements. They say hey look, send this out pope might be dead yeah, but it's on tiktok yeah it's not funny, no, but it's awful that they're doing that. It's all he knows about it. They're doing this. It's not funny, no, but it's awful that they're doing that. It's awful, he knows about it. They're doing this. It's awful, I know that's awful, awful, awful.
Speaker 2:Here's something to think about. Last night horrible dream oh yeah, I had a dream that disco was actually making a comeback disco.
Speaker 1:Oh, do you mean disco music? Oh no, that's a bad dream.
Speaker 2:At first I was afraid, I was petrified. But did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? No, I will survive. I actually have like two or three disco balls in my living room. I love disco.
Speaker 1:So you actually dreamed that last night? Yeah, you actually dreamed that.
Speaker 5:Yeah, you actually dreamed it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is what the Pope's saying.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:I will survive.
Speaker 1:Come on, pope, do it.
Speaker 2:Come on, pope, pull through.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Beat that pneumonia son.
Speaker 1:Yes, well, at least you're here, I'm here. Yeah, no more disco dreams.
Speaker 2:No, no more disco dreams.
Speaker 1:Because some of that music was horrible. Really it really was Like what? Well, like most of the, some of the songs begin with a Like. The Bee Gees had their songs that came out like Saturday Night Fever. Those were good, but then everybody in the world wanted a disco song. Disco Duck, no by no by Rick Dees.
Speaker 2:No, let's not do that. Disco Duck, do you have that?
Speaker 1:I'm trying to find it, but you've never heard Disco.
Speaker 2:Duck no.
Speaker 1:I've never heard Disco Duck. That was awful. I will find that for you. Okay, I want to hear it. All right, we'll find it All right 620.
Speaker 4:Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly.
Speaker 1:Going on Unbelievable that nobody was killed. Unbelievable.
Speaker 2:I think 80 people were on board.
Speaker 1:Could not imagine. That one.
Speaker 2:They had to have been like hanging by their seatbelts.
Speaker 1:They were yeah.
Speaker 6:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So Delta is offering each passenger $30,000 just because, no strings attached.
Speaker 1:Is that enough for you to have gone through what you went through if you were a passenger? $30,000?.
Speaker 2:I mean, I'm not going to turn it down. I wouldn't say yeah, well, thank you.
Speaker 1:I mean, there were just minor injuries, luckily.
Speaker 2:The thing is as horrible as it is. Accidents do happen and they said they couldn't control it.
Speaker 1:That's just one of those things that happened.
Speaker 2:So yeah, I'd take the 30,000.
Speaker 1:I don't think it's anybody's fault that this happened. The plane landed. It looked like it was a good landing.
Speaker 2:I only fly Delta. Would you fly Delta again if you were on that plane?
Speaker 1:This is like one in a million type accident where the plane hits and then flips over that's like one in a million. I've never seen that before.
Speaker 2:It died just like a cockroach.
Speaker 1:It did and they're flopping. But luckily everybody was. But they're giving them $30,000. Offering $30,000 if they wanted, yeah. I can see about half of them saying, nope, give me more, give me a lawyer, you'll see, there'll be lawsuits.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, oh yeah, There'll be a lawsuit.
Speaker 1:But I would take the $30,000 to say thank you, but they weren't hurt.
Speaker 2:No, I could see if they had medical bills that equaled hundreds of thousands of dollars. I think that they're going to say you know, we went through such traumatic and I'm sure it was.
Speaker 1:I'm very sure it was.
Speaker 2:Have you ever hit turbulence? Yes, that alone is scary, that's humbling. Yeah, that'll make you go to the Lord, because you're way up in the air and you think oh no, this is it. This is the big one. We're done.
Speaker 1:Yep, have you confessed in all your sins. Yes, you are.
Speaker 2:I've never heard of Benson Boone. Really, who is that?
Speaker 1:He's a top 40 guy. He was on the. I think the Grammy Awards got in trouble because he decided to grab himself as he was performing on stage. Oh Lord, like an old Michael Jackson move, oh oh, and it didn't go over well.
Speaker 2:So is he like pop or Okay? Yeah, I don't know who he is, but Benson Boone's Beautiful Things. I might know that song if I heard it Probably. It was named the 2024 top-selling best single in the world.

Speaker 2:Now, I know that is a good song. That's a good song, I'll give it.
Speaker 1:That is a good song.
Speaker 2:Yeah. And then the number 7 most popular song in the world Was Post Malone and Morgan Wallen. I had some help. Should have been bigger, should have been, but I love Post Malone's country album.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:I love him so much. I didn't understand when he came out like I don't know what, like 10 years ago with Rap. Yeah, I was like why are these Beautiful girl so attracted to him? Why do these people like his music? There is nothing appealing to him. Now I love him, Love his music, Love his voice, Love his attitude.
Speaker 1:His voice is unique and he's a good songwriter. Yeah, he'll just get up there smoking a cigarette or drinking a beer. He don't care.
Speaker 2:No, it's like fame never went to his head. He's just who he is, I love it.
Speaker 1:I'll tell you something else, Talking about great songs, I think we have the Song of the Spring slash Summer coming up. It was released today. Russell Dickerson has a new song called Happened to Me. It's been on TikTok for like a week and everybody's got their dance. Now have you seen his dance?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I saw his dance, he is crazy.
Speaker 4:It's cute.
Speaker 1:He is funny. You can see the video of Russell dancing to 30 seconds of it. The song officially came out this morning and I love it. I think it's just a good, fast, happy song. Well, it's also about somebody who's going to get their heart broke, but it's good.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And you want to play it? Yeah, it's called have to Be. That's coming up next here on CUSV W. Come on, man. Hey, keep listening for the Old Dominion contest sounder that's going to play sometime before 9 and your chance when and Russell from Wendy's is back.
Speaker 2:He's going to be here about 8, 10. He is bringing us Thin Mint Frosties.
Speaker 1:Is this the first time back since I guess they did the remodel at Wendy's Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:It is. Yeah, okay, they were out of a job. They kicked him out of their home for a while.
Speaker 1:Well, he should be without one because we're going to have to ask him a couple of things here. Yeah, but anyway, russell's joining us coming up after 8. Let me talk about restaurants and things. Now. You've been in the restaurant, the food business, off and on over your career.
Speaker 2:I've worked there for 10 years.
Speaker 1:Well, they released a list. This is put together by waiters and waitresses. What's the official word for this?
Speaker 2:Server.
Speaker 1:Server. Well, they released that list from servers from all across the country, giving tips on what they say are keys to getting better tips, things you can do if you're a server. Let's see if you agree with any of these. You ready. Yeah, one is they make a big effort to remember and use your name when they're talking to you at the table.
Speaker 5:Yes.
Speaker 1:Most of the time they don't ask my name.
Speaker 2:Well, and you?
Speaker 1:Should they.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they should Like. If you want to build a rapport with somebody, you want to know their name, gotcha, and tell them yours.
Speaker 1:That'd be tough if you've got like a big table full of people, wouldn't it?
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, you can't remember all these names?
Speaker 1:Okay. Engaging in small talk and showing genuine interest in their day creates a friendlier atmosphere. Is that good?
Speaker 2:Yes, but you have to be careful because you don't want to be too intrusive. Sometimes you want to be attentive, true, but not intrusive.
Speaker 1:Is there a time like maybe you can tell us, like a date night, that you don't want to be too talkative?
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Or ask too many personal questions.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but if it's a table full of 20-year-old boys, you're going to stay and talk. Gotcha, if it's a table full of 20-year-old girls, you're going to stay and talk because they're fun.
Speaker 1:Gotcha.
Speaker 2:And then if it's like a couple, like you said, I usually tend I would tend to leave them alone as much as possible, but also keep them happy.
Speaker 1:Kind of read the table Like are they in a serious conversation when you walk up. Yeah, what about a sincere compliment on their choice of food or drink? Complimenting, that's a great choice. The barbecued liver? Yes, two thumbs up.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I don't think that that's going to raise your tip very much. They may find you more personable but, I, don't see them tipping you an extra dollar or two.
Speaker 1:Smiling, making eye contact and maintaining a friendly demeanor goes a long way.
Speaker 2:Yes, being polite and efficient, I think, having let me think about a way to say positive language, like you know how Chick-fil-A says my pleasure. Yes, just say something like you know I'd love to Like. Can I have a ranch dressing? I'd love to get that for you. I'll be right back.
Speaker 1:Gotcha. What about offering a small freebie like an extra bread basket or a sample of a new dish, something extra? That's a good way to get fired. It is, isn't it? I don't think I'd offer a new dish or a sample of a gnome. No, being quick and efficient with service, especially filling the drinks yes, you got to keep the drinks full. That's the number one tip what about recommending, uh, some of their more popular items and saying, hey, let me recommend this are. Are you taking a chance? Because what if they don't like it?
Speaker 2:See, I don't go for that because it's usually the higher-priced items that they want to push, like when I worked at a restaurant it shall not be named before Jefferson's. I love Jefferson's. Like I said, 10 years of my life there loved it. But a restaurant that I worked at before, there they would say, okay, if we get whoever sells the most chicken and rice doesn't have to roll silverware, so they would give you an incentive. So I don't ever take their recommendations unless I ask If they're like hey, you really want to try this chicken and rice tonight? It's banging off the charts. It's probably priced higher, so your tip's going to be higher. If they tip off a percentage, I don't know, I don't trust it.
Speaker 1:I heard an interview yesterday, if you agree with this. A guy was talking about the difference between McDonald's and Chick-fil-A.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:About how many. There's like almost twice as many McDonald's restaurants around the world than there are Chick-fil-A's, but Chick-fil-A makes as much, if not more, money.
Speaker 2:Oh, wow.
Speaker 1:Because they said the difference is not necessarily the quantity of the service on how many can you serve, like they used to put that big thing up the counter but it's the quality of service.
Speaker 5:Yes.
Speaker 1:Even though they don't come out and wait at your table, they still do the small things to make you feel more appreciated.
Speaker 2:Yeah, when you go to Chick-fil-A, you don't ever feel like you're bothering them, but you feel like you are truly being served by somebody that enjoys what they're doing. Yeah, I think that's important.
Speaker 1:And they said this ties over to all businesses like radio. It's not the quantity of what you do on the air.
Speaker 2:It's the quality of what you do on the air. It's the quality of what you do and how you make the listeners feel appreciated. Yeah, I agree with that. I agree too. Yeah, and hey, I think everybody, everybody would benefit from waiting tables for like six months. At some period in your life you'll really appreciate your servers and understand that tipping on percentage is not fair, tipping on service is best. And then you know, it teaches you how to put others' needs Because, like you're hungry, you're tired, your feet hurt, your back hurt, you hadn't got a break. But it teaches you that you've got to sacrifice sometimes to take care of other people. It's a really, really good way to learn a bunch of life lessons.
Speaker 1:Just like doing radio. Some days you have a tough morning, but you still have to put a smile on your face and try your best to give them the best three hours you can.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And let them forget about their problems for three hours.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And forget about yours and leave yours at the door and come in here and do the best you can.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because we all have them we all have problems. Sure, everybody does yeah, yeah and some of our problems are deeper and darker than other times. But at the same time, when I cross over that door that separates us from the lobby, I drop all of it and I may sound like I'm having the best day ever, having such a good time, and then in my personal life it'd be completely crumbling down. But I don't want anybody to ever know that I just want to bring happiness.
Speaker 1:That's it, at least a smile a day, yeah, alright, 742.
Speaker 4:Mary and Holly on Alabama's Country, giant.
Speaker 1:WQSB, wqsb, laney Wilson 4x4 by you Number one song in the country 751, sunny Windy today 44. The high we're finally back in the 40s. It gets better all weekend.

Here he comes fresh off his trip to Jacksonville State yesterday. Will is in the building. Good morning Will.
Speaker 6:Good morning.
Speaker 2:How was the game?
Speaker 6:It was really good. I was really happy the way that the girls played and showed out and also the community of Averville really showed out. So that's awesome. It's good that they can have a team to get behind and, you know, it may be a start to what the future may come.
Speaker 1:And Jacksonville State was covered up. It was like a blackout. Everybody had on their black Elite 8 t-shirts, the Lady Aggies. They gave Hoover all they wanted for well over a half of basketball and Hoover's like one of the top teams in the state. Every year, every year, yeah, and Albertville hung with them.
Speaker 6:That's awesome. I think Hoover's may have won three state championships in a row, maybe four.
Speaker 1:So anyway, we had fun. We were going down there driving to the snowstorm, and Jeff took us on the back road and I thought I think I heard a banjo playing and somebody's squealing like a pig.
Speaker 2:Oh, wow, I believe. Yeah, it may have been a pig.
Speaker 1:No, I don't think it was.
Speaker 6:Oh Lord, and I got one thing I would give it out to the senior girls for Abreville, for Aberville, from what they went through for the past couple of years as far as challenges, especially in 7A basketball, to turning it around now, that'll be something that they'll always remember. So you've got to give it up to the senior basketball girls.
Speaker 1:They were beating Hoover by eight points in the first half. I didn't know that. Yeah, they played well.
Speaker 4:A lot to be proud of.
Speaker 1:Even though Hoover wanted to move on to the Final Four. You have a lot to be proud of, Even though Hoover won and moved on to the final four. You have a lot to be proud of. Yeah, all right, it is time. Knowledge Nuggets Waiting on Mark Rickey to get out of the shower, his answering service has told us. Please call him back. Okay, okay.

Speaker 1:I agree.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That goes through a lot of people's minds.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Because it always says usually on the thing you get from the pharmacy.
Speaker 2:I do not, do not mix with alcohol or whatever.
Speaker 1:No matter what it is, even if it's like cream for rash Tylenol?
Speaker 2:yeah, Just don't.
Speaker 1:Don't drink if you're going to apply the rash to an infected area.
Speaker 6:I figured the pregnancy one would be at the top. Are you pregnant or trying to become pregnant?
Speaker 2:Or nursing.
Speaker 6:Yeah, I figured that would probably be at the top.
Speaker 2:A son is can I drink with this medication?
Speaker 1:Number one question. Yeah, that's funny.

Speaker 6:You were talking about walking the dog outside and waiting on them. I saw a person attach a fishing rod pole and a fishing line to the dog, outside and waiting on them. I saw a person attach a fishing rod pole and a fishing line to the dog's collar so they would reel it in. It was a small dog but they were like come on, hurry.
Speaker 1:And they just reeled it in.
Speaker 2:That's smart.

Speaker 2:Yes, and we minutes yes, and then we also do a little episode on facebook every week that I started started doing that with russell so, yeah, we were wondering what that was. So it's not a podcast. They find it on facebook it's competition with man?
Speaker 1:no, it is not, no it is not there's room yeah, well, we were gonna do it.
Speaker 3:You know we started out and we're gonna to mention some businesses, but I cannot stay on any kind of topic at all, I believe it. So I've reset it. So it'll be up Monday and it's called A Guest in Ten Random Topics, okay, I wish I had ten random topics on there.
Speaker 5:But it will change to how Many Dumb Things Can I Get Russell to Say Gotcha, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:I notice you're jacking it in. You're with Shepherd's Cove. I am Love Shepherd's Cove.
Speaker 2:Love Shepherd's Cove.
Speaker 5:I love my job, so what do you do there? I'm a hospice care assistant. Oh good, that's a good job.
Speaker 2:That takes strong people.
Speaker 5:It does it's not for, but I'm absolutely like. I love my job, I love my patients, that I see I travel everywhere it feels like, but I wouldn't change it for the world.
Speaker 2:It's such a rewarding job, but I think I don't know if I could do it. It's so devastating too.
Speaker 5:It is, and that's when you have to put like your emotions aside and be there for that family Sure.
Speaker 2:Yeah, instead of for yourself yeah. Yeah For that family. Sure, yeah Instead of for yourself.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, put them first. Yeah, yeah. Well, first things first. I noticed you brought some goodies here, russell, so let's talk about well first let's go back, because first time you've been in here with us since the remodeling of Wendy's, it looks awesome. I think we were in there like day one when it reopened. Beautiful, beautiful Russell.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and we got all the bugs worked out. We had some any new things going to have issues with it, but we're getting everything ironed out now, so we're doing good, Good.
Speaker 1:So totally different from the Wendy's. You had to this, the new technology. Have you taken you a while to get used to it? Yeah, it's the biggest change for you. What is the biggest change Other than the sign?
Speaker 3:sign, we hate that, the sign, we hate the sign just just everything's extremely complicated to me, but I'm old school gotcha, yeah, you know what I mean. Like the other day we had a three buses pull up and we had kids ordering at the register and then we didn't realize they were going to mobile order in the back of the line. So all of a sudden 40 orders popped up. So they don't think things through all the time, but other than that we're doing great yeah.
Speaker 3:Sales are good and everybody seems to love it, so we're all good.
Speaker 1:Well, I had some chili from there last night, as a matter of fact.
Speaker 2:Did you. Absolutely, I love their chili.
Speaker 3:Love the chili. Yeah Was your service and everything good.
Speaker 1:We do Thin.
Speaker 3:Mint.
Speaker 1:Frosties.
Speaker 6:I'm excited for those.
Speaker 3:Which I tried to start the other day, but we're under some kind of a licensing agreement with the Girl Scouts of America. Oh wow, so I had to hold off. It officially starts today, and just real quickly, our ribbon cuttings this morning at 11, staying with Rowan Chamber of Commerce to be at the store. We're going to give away 100 Thin Mint Frosties, but you have to come inside to see our dining room as necessary.
Speaker 1:Oh wow, they're working on those now. So these look different. What is the difference? Here? There's one's vanilla, one's chocolate.
Speaker 2:You can get them made with either one.
Speaker 3:They come chocolate but you can default to vanilla. We all feel like the vanilla is a little bit better. But if you order it, you're going to get a chocolate, unless you say something.
Speaker 1:So has your machine changed? It used to go away for a while. Is that the case anymore?
Speaker 3:Yeah, they stopped doing that because a lot of people love vanilla. So, now you take the syrup and you go around the edge of the cup and some on top Gotcha, and it's kind of like a sundae sort of. So are these.
Speaker 1:Is this the first day for these? First day for these Gotcha?
Speaker 5:So no, idea how they're going to go over? I have not, so this will be my first time.
Speaker 1:Okay, so, holly, you ready to try this?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm ready, let's talk, let's pass them out Surprise. Well, mom's on here. My mom said Wendy's chocolate frosty is my favorite. I'll do chocolate, do chocolate.
Speaker 1:Either one's fine with me. Whichever one you want, we'll let you try. So now, what is this? The? It's like the Thin Mint syrup, basically, yes it's got Thin Mint cookies in the syrup.
Speaker 3:You can taste the mint.
Speaker 2:Oh, I love mint. Thin Mints are my favorite Girl.
Speaker 1:Scout cookie. It smells good too. You can smell the Thin Mint in there.
Speaker 3:They're partnering with all these companies. We did, I think, paramount for SpongeBob, the Girl Scouts for this. They should really partner with Pepto-Bismol and do the fish.
Speaker 1:Pepto-Bismol.
Speaker 3:I got to snort.
Speaker 1:I missed it, but I got me Tori to snort.
Speaker 3:That'd be cool. That was bad, Our fish sandwich brought to you by Pepto-Bismol. This is just like what is this?
Speaker 1:I'm so glad I didn't have the frosting on that you would have thin-minted all over me.
Speaker 5:I'm sorry, I didn't have the frosty in my mouth.
Speaker 1:You would have thin-minted all over me. I'm sorry, barry, you're good.
Speaker 2:You're good. The chocolate drizzle with the bits of thin mint. That's the best thing I've ever had in my life.
Speaker 1:The bits of the piece of the cookie that makes the this is the best frosty.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think they hit it out of the park with this one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so listen, I've been skeptical on these before. I didn't really like the pumpkin spice. I didn't really like the salted caramel yeah, salted caramel.
Speaker 3:It's not pretty good.
Speaker 2:They're okay. This is 10 out of 10. This is so good. If you love mint, this is so, so good.
Speaker 1:I love it. I love the cookie part. I love the cookie part.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think it's better when you just put the syrup in the frosting mix, because when you just convert the entire frosting over to a flavor, it's pretty stout yeah.
Speaker 5:I bet it is.
Speaker 3:So this way you're still getting the taste of the frosting.
Speaker 2:With the chocolate.
Speaker 3:And then some bites. You're getting the chocolate in there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is good.
Speaker 3:That's delicious.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't want to give this one away. I usually give them away.
Speaker 1:Wait Did you like it, nick, I want to eat this one. Yeah, what do you think? What's your personal opinion?
Speaker 5:Mine's a 10 out of 10. These are also my favorite Girl Scout cookies. Russell has a friend that's actually one of our customers and she does the Girl Scout cookies with her group of Girl Scouts. And I'm like Russell. You know you're buying me like five boxes of Thin Mint Trop, so she always brings extra boxes for me.
Speaker 1:What she always brings extra boxes for me. What about down the road? Will they try other girls Like say, samoas are down the road?
Speaker 3:I don't know. I think they're trying to partner with different things which is working out good. It's a great idea.
Speaker 1:Any idea what is next down the road, like late spring or summer, I have not heard a thing.
Speaker 3:I'm sure somebody knows, but I don't.
Speaker 1:Oh that's so good.
Speaker 3:Holly needs to be, along with her frosty yes.
Speaker 5:I do.
Speaker 3:She's over here making weird noises.
Speaker 2:I need a moment, so you need some privacy. We got a game for y'all.
Speaker 1:Well, since you have a brand new Wendy's. Basically, we have a brand new game for you. Yeah, it's a brand new game. It's called Spy the Lie.
Speaker 3:Is Victoria playing too?
Speaker 1:Yes, we have two for Victoria and two for you. It's simply a question.
Speaker 3:I've already got a snort. I bearded the punch.

He's at the hospital last night Holly. This is so good. You know, by the noises she's making I know If y'all eat with Frosty in the diner in the day, y'all don't be moaning.

Speaker 1:Well, it's good to see you all again.
Speaker 4:It's good to see you.
Speaker 1:Good on Alabama's country, giant WQSB what would you do if you're walking down the road? Now, this would be odd here in North Alabama, but you saw a baby seal wandering the streets.
Speaker 2:I'd seal it. I wouldn't tell anybody, I'd put it in my car and go home with it.
Speaker 1:Put it in the bathtub.
Speaker 2:Put it in the bathtub.
Speaker 1:Wasn't like a Disney movie many years ago, where a family maybe had a seal that they put in their house. It's an old Disney movie but it was cute.
Speaker 2:Yeah, kind of the same thing.
Speaker 1:They kept it in the bathtub, they got it in the swimming pool.
Speaker 2:I said come here little seal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, come here, little seal. Yeah, they don't hurt you, do they? I what?
Speaker 2:do they?
Speaker 1:eat Fish.
Speaker 2:Okay, no, I don't know Sardines.
Speaker 1:Well, this happened in Connecticut near Yale University. Saturday the New Haven Police Department. They got a call and said hey, you're not going to believe this, but there's a seal and it's not right next to the water, it's about 1,000 feet from the river.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:It was just outside of Shell and Bones Oyster Bar and Grill and people began taking pictures and posting it saying, well, we guess it was there just trying to get itself a pizza. Ah yeah, it had smelled the pizza for so long it decided I'm going to get me one of those.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:They took the seal to the local aquarium. Just what are the odds? And until he reaches the ideal weight and can be released back into the water?
Speaker 2:Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1:But it was over 1,000 feet away from any kind of water.
Speaker 2:Okay, have you seen? This is kind of taking a turn here, but have you seen the anglerfish that was off the Tenerife Sea?
Speaker 1:The TikToks I've been seeing. The first picture of these is like a close-up. You think it's this giant sea monster, until they zoom out later and show you how? Little it really is, but up close that thing is intimidating.
Speaker 2:I know, you know what I saw this quote and it said something like and it said something like it had been providing the light for all the others, that it wanted to see a light source of its own before it passed, because it died a few hours later after it was seen.
Speaker 1:What kind of fish was it again?
Speaker 2:It's called a sea devil angler fish.
Speaker 1:It's one of the ugliest fishes. It's like something they should copy and use. It's not quite ugly, it is Aw Well. Meanest looking fish.
Speaker 2:Can I tell you something? Yeah, I have cried over this fish.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Yes, and I'm not alone. There's hearts all over the world are broken.
Speaker 1:Well, it's mean-looking is what I mean it is, it's ferocious.
Speaker 2:It's almost like he was, like it's my last day I'm going to go see the sun, I'm going to go feel the warmth of the sun, so it's like a fish you rarely get to see.
Speaker 2:He's down like 20 billion leagues under the sea, got you. They rarely have ever been spotted and it floated up. But they have one in Finding Nemo, remember? It has the little lie in it. Okay, well, that's part of it. It's predatory use. It's the bioluminescent crown on its head Right. But he just floated up and it was his time to go. Do you think? He started going up and he's like hey, I'm starting to see something here I like this, yeah, this is nice.
Speaker 1:I think my whole family was crazy telling me don't go to the light, Stay away from the light.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Stay in the dark. They don't know why it came up other than well. They just have no idea.
Speaker 2:No, we have no idea. I think it's only the second. I could be wrong, but I think it's only like the second one that's ever been caught on camera.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:And, like you said, I thought it would be like a 30, 40-pound fish.
Speaker 1:That's what I thought when I saw the first pet, though. Well, this thing is huge.
Speaker 2:It was like four inches.
Speaker 1:There's going to be a Disney movie. They should now do a movie like Finding Nemo off of this fish. Oh my gosh About going to the top. I know they're missing. If they don't do a, yeah, they've got to.
