Well, well, well, the stool is back. Good morning Metroplex,
Monday, eight December fourth. Now we are here to party quite frankly,
all week long. Let's face it, if you're driving into work right now,
you're planning to melody today. I'm Kevin Turner. We have Mike siroy
All Morning Long two one four eight seven seven eight seven one. JJ Jackson
monitoring the bous running four making sure that we're on track. Can we just
stop the music? Pull that music out hard? JJ? Asian gentlemen,
making his return from a five day absence. Let's let's give a warm Metroplex
ovation for Danny the Boner Bayless head bonner. Shout out to the one point
nine What up point nine crew? Hello, guys doing great? That's good.
Good back in our heart. I listened to you boys while I was
on Mini vacation. Wow, it's entertaining. You guys are funny. I'm
like, they don't need me. I thought I thought that too when I
was off, Like, oh, they're too good. I don't. We've
said this up plenty many times, probably on air too. And I used
to do this when with Norm and you know, back in the day,
like even if you're in the middle of something you're on the air and you're
like, oh God, that was stupid or that was done whatever. When
you listen, it just sounds different and it sounds better, especially if you're
in your car, yeah, because you kind of there's something different about listening
live on your car radio. Then there is streaming streaming that because it's got
like that real live radio compression, and it sounds everybody's voices sounds so much
cooler. But you know, the iHeart app, which we highly recommend that
you download if you haven't already. It's a lact call, it's free,
costs absolutely nothing, and there's a cool red microphone button on the bottom that
if you press that you can leave what we call a talk back, and
if they're fun, we'll play them at nine point thirty in a segment we
call the hot Mop. Anyway, it's really fun to listen to because I
know what you're saying when you when you're on like right now, I think
everything that I'm saying is terrible, right, and I sound I hate my
voice. I'm not funny. These guys are so much better than me,
you know, and that just kind of reinforces when you're a way, you
know, yeah, and you're listening to a show without you on it,
and you're thinking, you're laughing, like, oh wow, God, you
guys are great. This isn't better without me. What you're saying is interesting
because that is a good portion of people. But I think there's a larger
percentage of radio people who just think that their s doesn't smell and that they're
great. So these things that you're talking about, my boys, there's big
percentage of people who just think they're awesome at radio or just in life,
not like it. They're like radio people. Yeah, I agree, I
got big percentage. They're just there because they want to hear themselves talk.
And how many like in this scenario, like people in radio like take me
for instance, I'd be off, so I'm off and I tune into you
guys, But how many people truly like in their heart in my position would
be like, God, I hope they f this up? Got hot?
I hope they're not funny. I bet a lot and then oh damn it,
that was funny. And you know what the good segment. I bet
the guys or gals that have that kind of attitude, they're the ones that
are really driven they they love this business so much, they're really driven to
succeed, so they kind of have to build their egos up to want to
be better and maybe maybe at the detriment of others, right, like wanting
your friends, yes and coworkers even to fail. Yeah, yeah, I'm
sure, because you can't survive without me, I wonder. And then a
little bit of human nature and just competitive it's like anything I think for some
quarterback and you're missed two weeks and the backup is incredible. Yes, he's
a nasty bitch. Part of that nasty bitch is watching going well. And
then you run into a situation like Tony Romo did, and then you go
around PR and throw your own press conference. So there's that, Well,
thank you for your verbal support. Yeah, that you're indicating right now whether
or not it be true. But this also has a compound interest factor too.
So you're off work, you're listening to the show. It's Kevy Oh
and Mikey and it sounds great and I'm laughing and you guys are doing fun
stuff and I'm missing I'm missing you guys a lot. But at the same
time, being away from it, you definitely if you have any type of
imposter syndrome that is that elevates so much like coming in here today, I'm
thinking, I don't know how to do this. I'm surprised you don't have
a song right out of the gate, so one, I don't know,
I've got the piano outlass, I'm stupid. This is terrible cat palls.
So hopefully we can slide back into this and I will this class. I
do it like every semester and U and T. It's like you speak to
these college students or whatever. It's fine. It's a broadcasting class. And
I remember one time I did get the question like do you ever feel like
you have impost syndrome? And I was like, ever, that's why I
got a really good question from a nineteen year old Yeah, And I was
like surefy, Like you have a lot of college loan deb until you get
out of that one. Yeah, just whip it back at him. Yeah,
And then they had a hard serve at you and then just Andre Agasy
cross court return and smash winner. Other than giving an honest dance, yeah,
I mean asking that question is kind of like offensive. Oh yeah,
well, do you feel like you have imposter syndrome? I don't know.
Do you think that I suck? Yeah? Oh, they don't listen.
They don't know radio exist. The younger generations about the man I have.
It's what why they might not know radio exists. They truly don't get it.
It's amazing they just don't. They think everything is a podcast. It's
terrifying, honestly, you know what's funny in uh so in my car,
which is too almost three years old now and I just after two years,
I finally figured out how to use car Play. Yeah, what a what
a? What an awakening that was? Oh my god, I don't have
to plug in my phone and search around with my thumb while I'm in on
the tollway. Yeah, it's awesome. But okay, so it's got like
a regular FM, a MFM radio. Not super simple to use, by
the way. You know, if you're used to the normal dial and presets
and all that, it's kind of a pain in the butt to jump around
and figure out how to get like FM presets and tune it in. But
if you go to the apps, you know, because CarPlay has just there's
it's apps, it's Spotify, it's ways, it's all. There's a freaking
I heart app that while I'm in my car that has an FM radio,
I can hit the touch screen and play the freak through the car, play
I heart app. They're taking you there before they're taking you to Standard F
they are, that's where it's going. How must AM feel about this?
Well, remember the articles we were reading earlier this year about the I don't
know, some lobbyists trying to you know, for and against yanking AM radio
out of cars, And I think the argument was a lot of emergency broadcasting
is able to be done on AM radio. So if everything it's kind of
like if your Internet goes down and you're a streamer you don't have TV.
Basically the threat of nukes, Yes, what is the argument to keep AM
radio? But AM radio is always there? But then again, how many
people actually have access to a terrestrial radio in their home right now that you
can walk into a room and turn on a radio. Man, I do
I have a couple? Yeah? I don't. And if hey wire whatever,
they have to go where you have to rely on information or communication via
AM radio? And then how many young people would know to do that?
Yeah? Like if the Internet just snap disappears, Wait, where do I
even get information. You can't understand though, why there are cultures that kind
of embrace the whole doomsday prepper, at least to a certain degree. You
how do you guys have a case of bottled water in your house just for
that? No, Like, what do you have we're coming to your house?
Do you have a substantial amount of cash just on hand somewhere that in
case the credit card system goes down and you need to be able to buy
stuff? You know what, I'll tell you, Like, I mean the
look, I'm not that way, but those are things that you kind of
might need to check the box on. I'm not talking about getting like fifteen
machine guns. But what good a consider substantial? I mean if you have
it as a couple thousand dollars maybe Okay, yeah, no, because I
don't. But I have a little thing, and only randomly yesterday I looked
at it. I'm like, wonder how much in there's seven hundred dollars,
there's seven one dollar bills, and it's more just because I don't even know
what it was. I got paid twelve hundred bucks for something and they probably
cash. Really no, it was legal, Oh, it was so legal.
But that's kind of it's always Yeah, I made a big cocaine and
sale, not seven hundred dollars, not that big. Yeah, so I
have seven hundred bucks, But no, I don't. We're not ready for
anything. We're peas Oh yeah, we're scared, confused, pee no,
and we're all still like we're just designed to just think things are gonna be
okay too. So there's a lot of that, yeah, and we're also
The ultimate thing is the phone that's changed, and we can't even fathom what
it was like to grow up from the age of eight or nine years old
having a phone. It rewired a whole other generation, the next one.
And that's fine, that's how it is, and we'll deal with it and
we'll evolve as we always do. I mean, it took forever to probably
realize that you're supposed to wipe your butt. I took humans forever then.
Was the first guy just went doo doo, and I was like, what
do I do now? It took a few other like, hey man,
but I'm not going to clean up back there. Bet it didn't take long
to figure that out. I don't know. Well, because of the itching,
the roids, the infection, the bugs, ig the royds are an
issue for cavemen absolutely see theory. I bet if you are just on a
clean, whatever the hell diet, that's cut caveman diet or paleo diet.
Because I've wondered dogs animals, they don't have a bunch of roles as Sharman,
okaying next to where they live. That's that's because of their design.
Well, I think we are probably designed to have nice clean emissions and not
have this hasmat crew required that when we complete the operation. You know,
So I bet caveman, if you're just eating you know, berries and meats
that you whatever, I bet you probably get regular and a nice clean operation.
I've thought about this. There's a design flaw in us because every time
I take my dog out to do that, that's something I think about.
It's like everything she does, it's so clean, there's no wiping, everything's
great. But it's because the anoose is perfectly open and exposed to the world.
So when the stool is released, the anouse goes back in. We've
The problem we have is there's like this valley of it's called butt cheek valley
hot buns and hot buns get in the way. So when your leavings are
produced. They kind of scrape against the hot buns and that requires you know
some it's yes. Does it often involve me having to drive myself to the
self service car wash and get the sprayer out? Sure? Yeah, we've
all been there. But yeah, so that's why. And what a horrible
solution for that is just wadded up paper? Yeah, and that's acceptable.
Yeah, that makes sense. Let's not do doo dooo talk. I agree.
First thing, I do have a question real quickly. Yeah. I
didn't bring it up, did you? Yeah? Who brought it up?
Kevin? We was we were talking about evolution. Kevin says, the darnest
things. What's your question, Mike? They changed things? That was quick
on this world. So enjoy your every minute while you have it. Uh,
because you're a bit you're on the big on the North Texas speaker circuit.
Yeah, they bring you into the classrooms. You've done it a dozen
times, right, I've been over ten years and bring in there. Has
a hot girl ever sat up front? I know and done the slow Indiana
Jones blink, we're on her closed eyes It says love you. Oh no,
she hasn't done that. I thought you did the thing like where they
kind of lean over to see if they can get an internship. Though,
what do you mean that has happened? What happens with lean over? Cleve?
Have you ever been the recipient while you're doing your speaking engagement to the
full on basic instinct? No, I haven't seen that. The leg it's
just the slow leg turn to where you find someone not wearing panties. You
haven't got that. You know, it's really mostly guys. Yeah, and
it's all you know, all the and and the women in there. Well,
there's actually there's quite a few women. They'll want to do TV.
Yeah, they don't want to do TV. And I tell them about my
old TV show and tell them that you don't want none of this. Have
you made fun? You won't make a dime out of it, You won't
profit. Have you ever been involved in one of these speaking engagements and one
of the students raises their hands and asks if next time they could get somebody
famous? Yes? Every time? And I was like, you got Chuck
Cooper Stein next week to buffle up? Do they groan when you get you
out of here faster than he will promise you that much? Do they groan
when you walk into the room. They don't know who I am. They
don't There's there's always like two guys like we do. There's always like two
yeah, pretty much. There there's always like two guys who were just radio
dudes. And you're like, oh, did you work at the ticket Remember
when do you work at the fan? Did you say to those guys?
And you got to tell them that the freak exists? Because that's what we're
doing. And that takes us to the six sixteen reset. Today, guys,
I'm Kevin with Danny and Mike, and here's what's coming up on today's
show at nine o'clock. It is part one of five of the twenty twenty
three Clip of the Year clip show Countdown, brought to you viral listeners.
Thank you listeners, thanks for jumping on board. They voted and I've tallied
up the results. Santasa. Today, we will do fifty through forty one.
We're gonna get through like three of these instead of that happens, that's
bad. I'm just telling goals to get through ten. We're gonna be doing
this into like February. Well, we're not to get through these. That's
not how countdowns words out and then on Friday, you'll have to skip to
the top five. No, and then we're gonna do like the twenties in
the week after, and then it's just gonna be a mess. I honestly
thought when I saw you know that Kevin was doing this, which is amazing,
and boy the work you put in, it's something I could never do,
probably would never do. N No one cares it was the top I
probably it was the top five. We're doing one yes talking about it?
I did. And then I saw the run sheet today is like what we're
doing ten? It's fifty, it's ten a day. How ten clips of
audio in one second? Clips? We should just you want to just go
downstairs with a new restaurant. Can you just play them? Well, we
have a new restaurant. Do you see that text that groups in rip hot
meal? Yeah? You just never know on any given moment if the group
text between this, if I'm available or not? Yeah, and I have
the notification set too silent. Oh same here, So sometimes there'll be a
good dozen of them on there. I'm like, I'm sure it'll be summarized.
We're here at the bottom or yeah, I'll catch you up. I'll
get caught up. So we have we have a duck a deli, all
right, but they've stenciled off. They scraped off the hot meal sign from
the Gold Coast Cafe hock Meal, and now it's something else. River,
Oh, riverfrontver River's Edge, The River Wilde starring Kevin Bacon. Point is
nine o'clock top. We'll go fifty to forty one today and we will get
through them. Yeah, we have to thing good Morning News back at eight
thirty eight o'clock today, We're really be closer to eight fifteen. Mike's further
Cash went to the Sphere. We get a first hand account of what the
sphere is like in Vegas, because we're all just enamored by it. Yep.
And if anyone, if you have it, do yourself a favor,
go look at videos of it if you can. Before that segment, so
we kind of have an idea of what we're talking about. Surely everyone's seen
the sphere by everyone's seen the sphere. But yeah, I got a little
quick chat with him when I returned his dogs. I did dog sitting duties
this weekend. I had four dogs into the house and because Christina's over with
their sweet dog, Hendricks. Boy, you want to talk about a full,
full batch jumping into that bed, boy with two people and four dogs,
all of which think they're number one. You sounded like a man that
was buried in dogs. On the phone last night. I did have three
dogs on me at that moment. It's so great, It is great.
But I'd say at least thrice over the last three days went with the palms
out to all dogs, f off, and I feel like they are learning.
Are they starting to understand what that means? You want kids, all
four of them at once, but just f off and they kind of get
it and they f off for wour minutes. I want less than it's just
a big pile of dogs. I realize I'm the outlier, not a dog
guy. And I love your dog, Simon, you know, yeah,
no, I know, but like the idea of having four dogs in my
bed grosses me out. Really yeah, I al still like a punch of
hair. I don't like hair. You know. I did have a moment
thinking that dogs might be like the simplest and easiest answer to like mental health
issues, you know, which are spiking and spiraling and all this, And
I think just have a one of those adorable, beautiful creatures nearby, and
I would bet there's stats on the numbers going down, you know. I
mean it's not a perfect science at all, but man, I think that
helps, and four of them is maybe works the other way it adds more
stress. In my short update, the name of our our new iHeart restaurant
is called the Riverstone Cafe. Oh that's great. Well, so everyone goes
the river Stone and give it a five star review. I don't know if
it's open yet. Is it open, I don't know. Is it on
Google Maps? No? All it is a sign they put on a glass
door. The costume world doesn't exist yet, but if you look it up,
it's a five star. It's five star place now fired Danny, Yeah,
of course it was right next to a costume world there. I follow
you guys on social media, so I saw the videos that thing was.
Did you ever figure out what was the It looked like a car. It
caught on fire. It looked like it was more outside than inside, and
it looked like it was fueled by something. It was a lot of fuel.
There was an accelerant that was all over the ground, it looked like,
and it was just going straight up and did they. It seems like
it also took a while for DFD to show up close to ten minutes.
Well, I mean it was eight am, you know, rush hour fire
five alarmed guys have got an update on the Riverstone Cafe. Great. I
found a review from twenty fourteen and the address is nearby, so it says
it's fourteen to two forty one Dallas Parkway. That's close to us. Where
what fourteen two hundred? So it must have been in another building nearby?
Okay, moving over here because the leash ran out four star review on yelp.
All right, Ramone says in twenty fourteen, the breakfast burrito was good,
but how come it's is only as big as my hand? I thought
they're bigger in Texas. I had to order two. Otherwise, the people
working there great and the food was great. So it's a well known fact
that Ramone he is a notorious overeater. He wants a big yeah. Well
it says he's from Florida. He's a size queen and looking at it this
fuck you spend a lot of time going to yelp with just leaving reviews on
apartment building cafes from nine years ago. Oh so today in the scuttle.
But at seven thirty we're gonna begin. This will take all week two,
I think, although this will be depending on how how far we get each
day, I guess, but I like to do. First of all,
I apologize, please OCD nut job when it comes to end of the year
organization love it so in my opinion, though I do not like radio shows
or anything that's just like a collection of segments put together. I can want
to feel like a show, and this helps do that. I think when
you take a look back at things or remember things, and we just go
to make sure. A collection of segments to me is not fun. That
just feels like job. That feels like doing a mile. Okay, let
me just run up one mile okay, and then here's the next segment.
It's like running. Let's have a show. Let's have a little funnle countdown
there. Remember that there little wet whack, there, a little whew,
you know that type of stuff. So we'll look back at the year in
news. Now. I know that we're not not believing, but this is
let's speak candid. It's the last week of the ratings book. Okay,
yeah, Wednesday, is the last day. It is the last week that
all four of us here on the show are together. Okay, yep,
combined because next week, Mikey, you're out gone. Week after that,
I think Danny's out for two days, and then we'll probably take a little
Christmas Yeah, a little Christmas hiatus. We're running around the twentieth last week
we're all together. Let's bring it on home. The Downbeat Christmas Singing Toppers
are coming. The twenty twenty three KT Death Song is coming, Danny Sings
to the Metroplex is coming. What do we call it? Ding Sings?
Ding Sings? The Songs of Baylists twenty twenty three, that's coming. That'll
be on lot Friday, Wednesday, Friday tomorrow. I think to Mark Baylist,
Oh hold on, maybe I'll do a tribute song to your songs.
I love that songs of you know, you're just rebranding stuff like the river
Stone Cafe. That's fine. Ramone's listening. He's got my bag of remote.
I realize we're not I realized we're not doing like a you know,
a White Elephant Day or a or a you know, all day American of
cowboys talk. What I am saying as lectually we can do a little things
here to bring it all together. So this is a big week for us,
and we want you all here. Yeah, that's all I'm saying.
If you're here now, stay here. If you're now, stay here,
or tell someone, tell a friend. Week. I have a question for
Danny that I think could serve as the most important thing in the world and
also have something involving Luca and I think that's what our tease will be.
Just that it's over. We got baby fever going on in the Metroplex right
now. That's next. On ninety seven, won the Freak
