00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:02.839
Good morning, good morning, good
morning, and welcome, welcome, welcome.

2
00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:05.960
It is time now for our community
connection right here on K one.

3
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:09.720
Though one you try some We are
having some fun today because we're gonna be

4
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:15.279
talking about something wild with the Wild
Brew as it benefits Sutton Navy and Research

5
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:18.320
Center. Audre, it is great
to have you back. It seems like

6
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:21.120
it's been a long time since I've
seen you. Well, thank you,

7
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:23.839
it's going to be back. Well, you know, it's always great to

8
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:29.000
have a good time and a good
thing to benefit that good time. And

9
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.799
with wild Brew, this is really
something. It's something you do every year,

10
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.759
isn't it. It is? Tell
us a little bit about it.

11
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:40.520
So Wild Brew is the annual fundraising
event for the Suttonnavian Research Center and the

12
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:45.520
Sutton Center. I'm hoping that everybody
that's listening to this radio show knows about

13
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:50.560
the Sutton Aavian Research the better.
We've done great things, But our bald

14
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:53.200
eagle is what we're known for.
And I think I say that every time

15
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:58.240
because it's always true. But this
year we have more eagles than ever in

16
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:00.880
the state of Oklahoma. That's great. And so when you come to Wild

17
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:03.320
Brew, literally you're when you drink
a beer, you save a bird.

18
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:06.120
Huh, all right, what I
tell you what, Dad, This is

19
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:10.319
one thing that's really pretty cool that
it goes on here. And in fact,

20
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:14.239
you guys got a little help from
a certain human eagle Once upon a

21
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:19.760
time did Don Henley Donley eagle of
a different feather in thesis supporter and helped

22
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:25.519
the Sutton Center fly when we almost
crashed. Wow, that's an interesting story.

23
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:29.840
Our executive director had had a motorcycle
accident, was hurt badly, and

24
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.599
one of our volunteers wrote Don Henley
a letter and he responded and supported and

25
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:40.120
because of him, we were able
to go on some of the national news

26
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.400
shows with our eagles and really spread
the word about the program. Well,

27
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:48.280
that is amazing. That is just
really amazing. Now we do more than

28
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.680
just eagles. We did. We
talk about birds of all kinds of heavy

29
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:56.560
wee We do all kinds of things. The Sutton Center. We work with

30
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:00.159
rare and endangered birds. So right
now we are captive breeding two of North

31
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:06.000
America's most critically endangered birds. So
it's a little tiny quail called the masked

32
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:10.719
bob White and it's a Sonoran desert
bird um and we are helping to restore

33
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:14.479
that bird. And if we weren't
working with that bird, it would be

34
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:19.000
extinct by now. So we're making
a pretty good difference in that bird.

35
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:23.479
And then the other one is the
Outwater's prairie chicken. And when you think

36
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.560
of chicken dance, think of prairie
chicken. They guy there are crazy little

37
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:31.439
birds. They do a fun dance. That the Outwater's prairie chicken is also

38
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:36.560
critically endangered. It's a Texas coastal
bird and because of the Sutton Center,

39
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:39.479
we're making efforts to restore that species
as well. You know, and people

40
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:44.360
sometimes they're like, ow, why
do we care? Well, because biodiversity

41
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:49.719
matters, and we want to have
a diverse, diverse wildlife, diverse plants

42
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.800
on our planet so that ultimately what
happens to the birds and the wildlife will

43
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:59.039
happen to people. And so we
are working to keep our world healthy and

44
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:01.919
we like to collaborate with as many
people as possible. And so Wild Brew

45
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:08.960
Um, it's Tulsa's oldest craft beer
festival, biggest restaurant crawl. It's been

46
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:13.240
going on. This is our twenty
fifth anniversary. Ye I've been doing this

47
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.199
event. I know it's hard to
believe. It just gets better and better

48
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:23.479
every year. But this year we
have the Wild Brew Beer is fantastic.

49
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:28.759
It's brewed by Dead Armadillo. It's
called a Sutton Summer Wheat and the can

50
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.800
is is awesome. Um. But
there's even a ride up about the Sutton

51
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:37.639
Center on the side of the cans
in. It's in restaurants everywhere. It's

52
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.199
in several of the liquor stores.
In fact, if any Bartlesville liquor stores

53
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:45.240
are listening, we would love for
you to carry the Wild Brew beer restaurants,

54
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:46.879
we'd love to have it on tap. It's a it's a really easy

55
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:52.400
drinking beer. Um. But Debt
Armadillo brews it to support the Sutton Center

56
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:59.280
and we'll have the Wild Brew Beer
and about two hundred other beers or more

57
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:01.840
to sample at the Wild Brew Event. Now, where's the Wild Brew Event

58
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:05.759
going to take place? Because I
know you can sample where you can,

59
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:11.159
yeah, but where it's going to
be. So the event is at the

60
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.680
Cock's Business Center in downtown Tulsa,
easy to find, easy to find,

61
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.560
right off the highway, and it's
air conditioned. And so sometimes when you

62
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:24.879
think beer festival you think heat and
bugs and hot not Wild Brew. Wild

63
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:28.680
Brew's air conditioned in the Cox's Business
Center. It's in Exhibit Halls B and

64
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:34.240
C, which is a ginormous space, and it will be full of restaurant,

65
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:40.040
restaurants, breweries, and whenever you
buy your ticket, everything inside the

66
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:44.639
event is free, and so you
can sample. You will not be able

67
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:48.439
to sample all of the food,
and you shouldn't drink every single beer as

68
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:53.639
you might not be able to leave. Yes, but there are so many

69
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:58.000
different things. I think right now, by the end of our recruitment beer,

70
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:00.120
you know, everybody's really starting to
sign up right now. But we'll

71
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:05.920
have about fifty breweries that come on
board, and every brewery brings around three

72
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:11.079
to four beers to sample. And
then we also have participation from some of

73
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:15.879
the distributors. Wow real but the
food, So even if you're not a

74
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.120
beer drinker, you should come to
the event because for the food. But

75
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:24.519
we also have wineries that will participate, We have distilleries that will participate,

76
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:30.360
and we even have some of the
local movement is huge, and so we

77
00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:32.800
have some local sodas that will be
there. Soda companies, we have coffee

78
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:40.120
companies that will be there, so
there are all kinds of things to drink,

79
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:44.480
even if you're if you're not a
beer drinker. Lots of the Pepsi

80
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:48.839
Corporation they're participating, so we'll have
Pepsi products there, so it's just great.

81
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:53.399
And while you're drinking your beer and
eating your food, um, you

82
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:58.759
also have lots of things to see
and do biscuits and gravy. A new

83
00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:01.720
band this year will be playing for
us. Shelby Ker will still be there

84
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:08.120
during the Patron's hour, but live
music the silent auction is huge. This

85
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:12.120
year, we're adding an element of
a live auction, so we'll have five

86
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:16.519
special items in the live auction.
We've never done that before, but we

87
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:23.279
think we think that people will love
being able to watch a live auction and

88
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:27.199
just a few items, so it's
something we're trying this year. A little

89
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:30.240
hybrid, little hybrid. And then
we also have several of our local artists

90
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:34.680
who are supporting us this year,
and so we'll have all kinds of artwork

91
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:40.480
that we'll have buy it now pricing. Some of them will be available online,

92
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:43.759
which if you go to the Wild
Brew website you can sign up for

93
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.199
auction updates and so even if you're
not able to attend the event, you

94
00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:50.600
can bid on auction items and then
they'll even bring them to you. Yeah,

95
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:54.279
well, hide doggy, I know
we're going to have more here with

96
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:57.480
odwred here and just moment as we
talk about wild brew. After these words

97
00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:00.519
from call Grass Motors, an article
more and Kneecamp funeral one, Kay,

98
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.399
why is it time to start thinking
about a new car? But the thought

99
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.600
of dealing with the large dealerships is
just too intimidating, too confusing. There

100
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:11.759
is an easier way, tall Grass
Motors. Tall Grass Motors doesn't play all

101
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:15.560
the confusing games a large dealerships play. Tall Grass Motors has continually been voted

102
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:20.439
Bartlesville's best used car dealer year after
year. Go my tall Grass Motors today

103

to save you money. Tall Grass
Motors Highway seventy five North in Bartlesville.

105
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:35.160
The first conversation I have with someone's
loved one, I don't care if it's

106
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:40.279
three o'clock in the afternoon or three
o'clock in the morning. That first conversation

107
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:44.639
is mister X, this is tim
How with Arnold Moore Nie Funeral Home.

108
00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:46.519
First of all, sir, let
me say I'm very sorry we're having to

109
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:53.319
have this conversation right now. And
to the nth degree, those people always

110
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.560
appreciate you taking a moment to just
pause and say I'm aware that someone you

111
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:03.319
care about very much has just left
you, and I'm sorry that we have

112
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:05.319
to do this, but we have
to do this. And if it's three

113
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:09.720
o'clock in the morning, I try
to be brief but concise and say do

114
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:15.079
you have any questions or anything I
can do for you right now before we

115
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:18.759
meet at our arrangement conference. And
sometimes I say, you know, can

116
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:22.279
you call my priest? Can you
call my pastor? And I don't mind

117
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.519
doing that. It'll be all right. We'll walk through this together. Arnold

118
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:30.839
Moore and Knee Camp Funeral Home,
seven Dewey, Martelsville. We will walk

119
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:35.480
through this together. Welcome back into
our community. Connection more with Oudrivogel and

120
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:39.080
Jeez with the Sutton Avian Research Center, and of course Wild Brute, which

121
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:43.120
supports this. Tell us a little
bit how this all kind of meshes together

122
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.600
here. We know that if we
go to the event at the Cock Center

123
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:54.919
on the twenty six and we have
fun. Money will go do the Sutton

124
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.480
Research Center. But this whole marriage
with something else. Um, so the

125
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:05.639
Sutton Center, Um it really it
really is important. The event is great

126
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:09.320
fun, but we rely on this
event to really fund a lot of the

127
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.159
important work that we do. And
so the event, you know, we

128
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.960
call it the greatest party ever hatched
because it is. It's so much fun

129
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:20.000
there. They are all kinds of
things to do. You know. When

130
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:26.000
I first came to the to the
Sutton Center and Wild brew was a part

131
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:28.759
of my responsibilities, I thought,
ah, this is gonna be a you

132
00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:33.480
know, something awful. But it
really is like a nice evening out.

133
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:35.919
I thought it was going to be
a big drunk fest. It is not.

134
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:41.600
It is a very nice evening out. The brewers are there, so

135
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.720
you can talk to the brewers.
The restaurants are there. You know,

136
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:48.639
you walk from place to place and
get your food. The Sutton Center's education

137
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.320
program will be there in full force. And so Artemis are great. Um

138
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:58.840
a red tailed hawk. He stayed
on glove for six hours. Artemis is

139
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:03.879
a rock star. She is a
redtailed talk. She goes to the schools

140
00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:09.159
and when we can bring live birds
into the schools which we are in the

141
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.559
Bartlesville School System, we're participating in
the Dewey School System in Nowada, We've

142
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:18.200
been in Bahuska, We've been in
all of the area schools right here.

143
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.960
It really changes the conversation when you're
talking about science, math, engineering,

144
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:28.039
technology, art. When we can
bring a bird in and talk about flight,

145
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:31.879
when we can talk about feather structure, when we can talk about all

146
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:39.279
of those things about about how birds
fit into and can help teach more about

147
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:45.240
science, more about math and trajectories
and all of those kind of things.

148
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:48.000
You can see the kids just light
up. And so we are working in

149
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:56.600
partnership with teachers in the area to
really help help them teach what they need

150
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:00.720
to teach in exciting new ways.
And at the same time we can talk

151
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:05.919
about the about conservation and why it's
important to protect our world, and so

152
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.240
it really all goes together nicely.
And so when you come to Wildbrow this

153
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:15.159
year, you'll be able to meet
we'll have turkeys in tents. They are

154
00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:18.559
loud, they're obnoxious, they like
to show off their stuff and you're fun.

155
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.480
They are so fun. But they
help us talk about heritage breeds and

156
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:28.600
about agriculture and the important it's just
all works together. We'll have a golden

157
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.600
pheasant that Turbo is her name,
and she will be there. She loves

158
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:37.440
people, and so it really is
an opportunity to see the education program.

159
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.679
But if you can't go to Wildbrow
and you want to see things like our

160
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:46.320
education program grow, you can make
a donation. Go to our website,

161
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.440
the Sutton Center dot org make a
donation, but you could donate an auction

162
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:56.720
item you could bid online, and
every dollar that you donate goes directly to

163
00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:03.559
help support programs like our education program. Our Breeding Bird Outlas is a statewide

164
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.519
survey. We just finished this year's
survey, but we are looking at the

165
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:13.480
health and distribution of our birds in
Oklahoma. Because to wait until something becomes

166
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:18.519
endangered, you want to it's too
late, you want to stay out in

167
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:24.360
front. And so our Breeding Bird
Outlas helps us then inform conservation actions that

168
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:28.480
might be needed. And so we've
already seen some movement of new birds coming

169
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:35.080
into Oklahoma. We find out all
kinds of cool things be relatively easy,

170
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.559
and yet everybody can play a role
or things that we can do. We

171
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.000
do not have to throw up our
hands and feel like we're powerless. We

172
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.679
can help. It's a while.
Brew brings all of those things together,

173
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.120
you know. People come to drink
beer and they learn about the birds.

174
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:56.039
People come to support the Sutton Center
and they meet all these great brewers,

175
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:01.600
and so we feel like our restaurants
and our brewers are parts they really help.

176
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:07.600
You know. Several have come even
though restaurants and breweries are just their

177
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.440
thin years this year, this hard
time finding staff. They want to come

178
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:15.519
to our event because they want to
support the work that we do, and

179
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.480
we are very thankful for them.
Indeed, where can we find the sut

180
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:24.120
Navian Research Center online? So Sutton
Center dot org is our our website.

181
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:28.600
But we're talking about Wildbrew. So
if people go to wildbrew dot org dot

182
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:33.279
wildbrew dot org, let me say

189
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:03.759
this year, and so they are

00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.000
in Oklahoma. To stay in front
and keep our birds healthy because again,

191
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:13.320

humans. Keep that in mind, I
