The Downbeat on ninety seven to one. The freak got press in pockets,
Mike. In an hour, they documented a two humpback whales having sex for
the first time. You ever wondered how wales do it? Every day?
Seven thirty five. I'll break off a piece of that for you. It's
actually highly interesting. And that's gross and sick and weird. You know,
corkscrew involved, and it's a quirky radio story. It's not it's actually it's
science isn't important, and it's beautiful. Checking a lot of golf this morning.
Anthony Kim on the Live Tour former well the i DFW resident, but
he'd been missing for a long time. Back he's back. He was off
the grid for all that long time, but he's back. Give an update
on him. Eric Cole, just hit it real bad. It's a Canadian
golfer. This is Mike and I always have a little little bit of juice
in the action at the Honda Classic. True, he's an American golfer,
by the way, Eric Cole, Yeah, alway thought he was a Canadian
Floridian Florida man. Let's take it back then, then, whatever did you
get any hail? I don't know I never died and go outside. It
was definitely raining rains. Do you have this in your house? I have
something at the top of like where my stove is, and there's the vent,
you know, like is there that's an extra chimney. I don't have
a fireplace my house, so there's some form of chimney. I know what
you have in your house. I'm seeing it now. Yes, yeah,
I don't know what that is though, but it goes all the way through
the roof, right I think so. Yeah, And it's got a little
metal top on it and whatever that little metal thing starts tinking hard. That's
when I know it's coming down outside. And it was extra loud yesterdays been
tiny hail, but I mean no damage or anything. Well, they've got
a name for it, and I'll tell you what that is now. The
most important thing in the world got me. Some of it's got me.
No one's ever gonna believe anything to say. Some of the gun yea,
we tease things. What's the tease things? We tease? Let's talk through
the open so that one guy doesn't change the station. Oh, I know,
I've never heard that one. I've heard plenty of critiques but the guy
yesterday, I hate all the song opens and it makes them change the channel.
Now, I mean, what was that twenty seconds boom? I think
you just didn't like the Billboard Bayless one. Now it's me singing it's weird,
but freaksy mads, I just get to the content. I forgot.
What's the Billboard baylist one hit it? Let me tell you which one I
hate. Of all the critiques, and I can even take them all taking
stuff in the shorts, this one drove that. Yeah, I'm mad.
Bane Let's billboard, bay Let's billboard balance. It's not stuck in people's head.
It's good billboard pay fun song, Billboard band Let's billboard bay Let's billboard
bandless. I'm gonna sing the verses with board payless, Billboard banel Let's billboard
payless. See if we switch good, if we all do one, that
might be a better way to handle billboard or at tension getting h I think
it like what you said, bed a gull to talk about yesterday, and
we play like even if you're hating on us, we'll play it. You
know, we're not We're not a bunch of peas up to you. But
he didn't like segment intros, which they're not all long, and like that
one right there was twenty seconds. I'm telling you the scuttle butt one is
five seconds. Sports at seven is five to ten seconds. Yeah, throw
up mostly ding. This morning news song is twenty seconds radio show. There's
elements, there's audio elements. Yes, it's not just people, no dry
I hate return cuts. It's not story turn story, paper, story,
commercial spot. I mean, I don't know to say, but the one
I think like I've seen people just do like Zoe Hoey content, I'm like
Jesus Man, not a content running out. I remember I have time to
get on the content onto the show every day. We begged them to let
us do five hours every day. Okay, don't give any one any ideas
stop. I like it. So Pete Delkis is the first guy I saw
do this, but it could have been other meteorologists too. You know how
this happens every year, bomb, cyclones, Arctic blast, This is a
this is a a weather man bit right where they have to or is there
like some central national office that doles out these names. I think it's gotta
be because how come we didn't know this? Something that fell yesterday was not
hal not snow, not freeze, not sleep. Something called gropple, Shut
up g R A U p e L. Gropple a form of precipitation that
consists of small ice particles that forms around rain drops. Gropple forms when super
cool water droplets collect and freeze onto snowflakes. I was like, first of
all, we were in the forties yesterday, so don't you know, Yeah,
but up there where they start, I guess, and that creates gropple
super cooled water droplets. So basically, the ice that was hitting somewhere I
didn't get any of my house, but I saw a bunch of people posting
pictures of it, and they were dusted pretty good, kind of like sonic
ice. Okay, the best ice, by the way, we all agree,
Yes, among the food cliches that are thrown out there, sonic ice
is the best. That great crunch. But you can maintain it between your
teeth if you want. Do you know underrated ice cube? And I don't
go there I ever anymore, but you get underrated ice cube of the places
McDonald's square cube. What does that mean? Is that a regular ice cube?
Well, a lot of times ice cubes are more in a almost like
the shape of like a moon. Yeah, yeah, the moon. Yeah,
moon home shaped ice is often the moon. Yeah. Or you're lip
crescent. You know, even two pieces would look like your lips. Like
one piece looks like a mouth. Okay, yeah, mouth. See what
I'm saying there. Yeah, that's pretty smart to make food mouth shaped.
It's good. Go in there. That's gotta makes sense. If only they
may butt plugs that way. Jeff Jeff Cavanaugh two to six. Part of
the Speaker is Jay Dobs, Mike Roner, Michael Gruber every day on ninety
seven on the Freak. It is weird that where I love how so take
place like McDonald's or anywhere, how much thought goes into exactly that. Yeah,
I mean for McDonald's, you have to come up with how many Okay,
let's place our bets. How many McDonald's. Why they're in America,
Jesus, I'm not we can all play five hundred thousand. Okay, you
are, You're not good. I always guessh I do on you guys,
nineteen million satellites. I guess like I'm putting I blow it by the hole
every time. I mean, including like Walmart. I don't know. I'm
literally just gonna google it, say like ten thousand? Is that to me?
I'm just how many McDonald's are there in the US. I haven't clicked
you with Yeah, I'm sticking at five hundred thousand. Okay, it's not
five highs. Well, I don't f and know a lot. I say
about somewhere between five and ten thousand. Okay, that's a big window.
Let's start. Because they're like an airport, they're everywhere. There's like eight
within viewing distance of our window. I can see eight golden arches from right
here we're sitting. People need a place. I think, I mean,
I think I like your number five and ten. It's gotta be right.
Uh are you gonna guess? Well? I want you to lock in numbers.
Five hundred thousand, okay, five hundred thousand, I'll say eight thousand,
all right, I'll take eleven eleven thousand. There's fifty states, eleven
thousand, all right? You ready? Who's ready? Play Billboard, bayliss
Hamburger McDonald's. There are thirteen thousand, five hundred and twenty eight McDonald's restaurants
in the United States of America as of February thirteenth, twenty twenty four.
Way off, The state and territory with the most number of McDonald's in the
US is California with one thousand, two hundred and twenty four restaurants, which
is about nine percent of all McDonald's restaurants in the United States. But anyway,
okay, so that's thirteen thousand at a joke minimum ice machines you have
to decide on by distribute and have consistency with. Realistically you're looking at twenty
thousands. You need to replace them and keep them going whatever. So just
the discussion of what kind of ice what we're gonna have, like, is
the Sonic ice machine costs a lot more? Probably not, or they just
want to I want to have that you need. Probably one of the early
Sonics had a had the crush filter and then went, oh, we kind
of like this, let's get it. Let's all make all of our Sonics
like this. I would imagine the same thing with McDonald's. I think it's
different for Sonic because Sonic is also known for having different variety of drinks.
So yeah, you put more probably thought into Okay, how do I make
it more refreshing ooh, this ice is perfect for these type of drinks that
we make. Okay, you want an even more interesting conversation is you know
every cube of ice that goes into that cup displaces how much liquid they need
to put in it. Yeah. I mean, if you put one extra
cube ice and McDonald's in every soda you make, you literally on thirteen thousand
restaurants, and god knows how many drinks they sell per year. You know,
thousands of gallons of liquid you are saving every day, tons, you
know, and and their profit margin on beverages is more than their profit margin
on food. Probably that's why they put so much ice in your cups.
They can get little like not as much like you're buying a large drink,
but you're not gonna you're probably getting medium size, yes or less. They
put so much ice in it. You hit them with the easy ice.
Oh dude, my grandma right, no ice? No oh, my grandma
would say, yeah, very light ice every time, because it comes cold.
It's cold in the machine. I mean, you could do four ice
cubes and be fine for the speed in which you usually drink a beverage.
Yeah, but when they fill that thing to the top with ice, it
things like a third full of liquid. There's places that's how they get you.
And this has all been discussed. Yeah, a board room like a
present presented and I bet all the way down a manager saying fill that thing
with ice, because yes, it matters on a national level. I literally
went to a coffee spot the other day and they brought out the medium and
then they was like, no, I ordered a large. They just took
it back more ice in the large. You saw that, I saw it.
I'm like, bro, I would have went off if I saw that.
Yeah, fine, here's your large. Literally off the ice left.
Amazing. It just poured the medium in. That should be hidden from we
the consumer should be on display. And now more people know about it.
Hell, yes, keep your eyes open. Yeah, look at water cool
companies. We're coming for your companies. I think, what are we doing?
Oh so Gropple. Gropple is often mistaken for Hale, which it was
yesterday. But I guess I'm sitting here going like you said, is there
a It's the first time universally had anyone heard of Groppel. Have you heard
of Groppel before? Just now or yesterday? I think you're lying. I
think you're a liar. That's what I think. Like if you just type
in did you type in Groppel? Yeah? Just like did it have a
Wikipedia page? I don't know how it does have a it does have a
Wikipedia page, Mike, Yep, groppol. It's called corn snow, a
pretty big corn snow. Oh it's real, dude. I mean there's probably
a ton of terms we've never heard. It looks like dippin' dots. Yeah,
boy, dippin' dots pretty good. Vin Donald's also the place most likely
that the ice cream machine not be working. Yeah, which is another meme
basically but also true. Who somebody says we bought a sonic ice maker for
the house, and it's a bend to that. Did you really? Yes?
I would love Ben Roger take I'm no accountant, but I would love
to just take a look at the Roger's household spreadsheet for a month. I
think I would too. Did you sell those Amazon? Or Yeah? Maybe
let's look that s up. I mean I bought a little. I bought
the the real cheap version of that. I got a you know where you
put your ice in the ice tray. So they're like rubbery, but they're
little, they're little holes, so you put those so you made the little
sonic ice like that, you put a little water into the little things,
into the little holes on the rubber tray. Amazon has them for two hundred
and fifty bucks. Nuggets ice makers. I don't know that two fifty.
I mean, yeah, that's probably two fourteen. It's not the top of
my list of expenditures. But man, that does seem pretty reasonable. I
don't know if this doesn't look like the exact same kind of ice that real
easily crunchable ice, but yeah, it is buck fifty. You can get
some I don't know if they're good, but you have to like go buy
the block of ice as well, Like how does that work? Yeah?
Probably unless it makes its own. If it makes its own, what do
you mean by a block ice? Go to Sonic buy a bag of ice?
Like, do you not have a specific ice for it to form in
shape? No, that's what the machine does. It makes it. It
makes it the crunchy ice. Okay, that's good then, okay, and
their task phone is this is not just ice, this is the good ice.
You would save money on that. Then if you were going to buy
a block of ice. Most people just haven't made in there, but I
don't where do you have an ice maker? Or now please say no,
well you just have a cube tray anything, you have a cube tray and
any stuff? Yeah? Or I buy I buy ice from store and oh
no, you're not off, I in your freezer if it's need a super
Bowl party the sixties. Every week is a super Bowl party for me.
I look, I don't I've threatened this before, but I want to come
by do a routine inspection. I'd like to do waiting. I'd like to
do it this weekend, play some video games. It's like I have to
do it on an ounce. It's like a catch them in the act.
You got like a parole off, sir. I need to catch you in
the act. I'm gonna walk in. He's just gonna be hunched over as
cooler trying to chip chip a chunk of ice off to make a drink.
And it's a little underwear. I don't know. Hey, definitely underwear and
T shirt. Yeah, definitely, because he doesn't have central air. You
know, I don't have a plan on pants yet, so we're gonna go.
I don't have a pants, drawer shirt and underwear until we figure out
what pants are gonna go with today? Right the moment I get home,
pants off? Just tear aways? Yeah, last Man on the River off
Michael's birthdays all right, so right early See, people didn't think we would.
No one believed we would do birthdays early March first, and I would.
I would. Okay, Yeah, I'm gonna say this. I think
the most famous person you have ever stood next to it's thirty today. Oh.
I was assuming you've been around a lot of famous people. I mean,
I don't know if you can beat the King Richard Petty, who's definitely
not thirty. More famous than Richard Petty, I think so, at least
now it's thirty. Oh, happy birthday Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber, my
friend. We need to post that picture out there, don't we. Happy
birthday Justin Bieber. Okay, for the sake of memories, I can do
that. I'll try to find it. What about eggs? Is that what
y'all ask to do? He asked him, what about eggs? Eggs?
What Justin Bieber's thirty? Mike and Cash Mike's brother Cash. If you didn't
know, that's who Cash is, because their picture made with we waited in
line for the meet and greet, because our friend did the lighting for his
tour, and we were just these two to two towers, and I mean
that in the Lord of the Rings way, not the other way, just
standing at the back of the line of these little girls who were just buzzing
to meet Bebe. And that's ten years ago, when he was a twenty
year old. And when he was a twenty year old, he was doing
two nights at the AAC selling out people waiting outside the door to get in.
I went down there. We were afternoon drive at the time, and
I went down there. I had a little app at the time where he
would sound like you were connected to the station on a app. It was
great, really. So I was at the American Airline Center and I was
interviewing Biaber fans, you know, Nick Creamer. It was weird. It's
all a bunch of twelve year old girls and their moms. But then I
did the whole like it's just a just took off running and dude, I
turned around and it was like the stampede seen in the Lion King. They
were all running. I was just lying it wasn't him. I was just
saying it was for the radio, and I was like, oh my god,
they believed it. Here comes one hundred people pushing each other down on
a stampede, a bunch of women just running in girls who nuts. I've
bet the AAC for the NBA Finals. I've seen Dirk game winners, I've
seen stars overtime goals, and I have never I saw Charlie Sheen's whatever his
tour was. I remember that wow winning tour. And I have never heard
a noise emitted at the American Airline Center than the noise I heard the moment
Justin Bieber launched out of his hydro launching device onto the stage. Yeah,
crazy piercing volume, never not even clothes gross, the loudest noise I've ever
heard. It's happy birthday, Justin thirty. Your old friend Kesha is thirty
seven, very sweaty to me. Oh yeah, she seemed like, which
does nothing but nice thing to say about Justin Bieber. And then Kesha takes
it. She does look like she doesn't shower. I was trying to defend
that first came out. Yeah, she looked very dirty. I think you
know. I mean, Kirsten Dunts has always been kind of sweaty to me.
And I like Kirsten DUTs by the way, I have breaking news for
my own head. Yeah, Kesha is a white person. Okay, you
learned something new every day. No, I did not know that. You
know her hit song, I guarantee I know it, but I don't know
it, TikTok on the clock, make it Rock, make it squawk.
Her is Keisha. Don't oh Keisha, their black to win. The name
is Keish, He's Kesha. I just want to Yeah, that was a

Slave is our Oscar winning performance. Yes, woe put her out there.
Mark Paul Gossler's fifty Uh say by the bell man Morris, Yeah, there

Hell yeah yeah, Hettle, yeah a little. But I don't mind a
Bond villain who's like, before I kill you, let me bound you,
let me hit that Danielle bang. But a formal question, would you Danny's
there's Danny knocking on your door asking you if you can test your water your
water quality. Booker T's fifty nine wait the five time. Yeah, big
day, Big day for Brody booker T. Booker T who once was booked
at a station event at an old station and I was told by someone behind
the scenes that it was an eight thousand dollars booking for him to fly to
Billy Bob's and be there at appearance fee. And meanwhile, you are told
right now that is an incredible value. Maybe at eight thousand, I don't
know, but I remember one person on staff looked at me and he goes,
they paid twenty five percent of my yearly salary for Booker T to be
here for an hour. Yeah, well sorry, overnight board Op, can
you bust a spinner? Rooney? It was the Morning Joe producer. I
don't think you can. It was a AM Drive morning show producer. I
mean the I mean, dude, top five ratings. It was a good
gig. He was like, it's like twenty five percent of my salary for
Booker T to be here. And the turnout was tepid. Really, yeah,
you get a picture. You didn't get a picture of Booker T.
No, there was distancing. It was bad. Everyone was trying to not
be involved in the whole thing. Ron Howard seventy, Roger Daltrey eighties to
development Pink Floyd alan Thick would have been seventy seven, a great Canadian man.
It's interesting that alan Thick was in a show called Growing Pains Too,
and then Harry Carey would have been won ten. Oh right, go ahead,
do your fake get Harry carry that. Everyone don't have one. I've
never done one. Happy birthday celebrities, Good job everyone. We got a
