Speaker 3: the uh, I I can't teach common sense eight hundred
Speaker 3: and eighty four eight nine two two two. There's a
Speaker 3: tremendous amount of mystery involved with the Pyramids. Tremendous amount
Speaker 3: of mystery involved with the Pyramids. And when I talk
Speaker 3: to you about the mysteries of our time, it always
Speaker 3: comes up. It's as though it was put on our
Speaker 3: planet to cause conversation. I've had a lot of chats
Speaker 3: with Robert Cotworthy of Ancient Aliens. I've asked him about
Speaker 3: what he thinks, what have they learned at Ancient Aliens
Speaker 3: about the Pyramids, And among the things that they've learned
Speaker 3: about the Pyramids, it's so bizarre and exotic. Is that
Speaker 3: now there's a prominent theory, I mean, get this mystery.
Speaker 3: There's a prominent theory that the Pyramids were made to
Speaker 3: look older than they are, that when they were built
Speaker 3: it was almost like an amusement park trick to make
Speaker 3: them look older than they are. I said to Robert
Speaker 3: Clotworthy of Ancient Aliens, I said, they always talk about
Speaker 3: the outer coating, beautiful, shiny, highly polished limestone that shined
Speaker 3: in the Egyptian sun, was shining in the Egyptian sun.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, okay, that's nice. And what happened to
Speaker 3: the limestone? They always say, well, the limestone was used
Speaker 3: in buildings in Egypt and Cairo. Okay, good limestone, not
Speaker 3: going to disappear easily. I have never seen a picture
Speaker 3: of the limestone on any building in Cairo. Have you
Speaker 3: have you ever seen any of that on any building
Speaker 3: in Cairo? Because I don't believe that's what happens. You
Speaker 3: consider the weight of limestone, considered the size of those blocks,
Speaker 3: and then tell me that these were easily removed, dragged
Speaker 3: a couple hundred miles to downtown Cairo and used in
Speaker 3: a bodega. Frank In, Where are you? Frank In? New Jersey? High?
Speaker 5: Yeah, welcome to the show.
Speaker 3: You're on the air. Welcome to the show. You're on
Speaker 3: the air.
Speaker 5: High thank you. A little while ago, you said that
Speaker 5: because Trump's in office, the price of eggs and milk
Speaker 5: are down. Well, that's not a fact.
Speaker 3: It's a fact that what I said was since Trump
Speaker 3: has been since he has been in office, the price
Speaker 3: of eggs and milk has gone down. I didn't say
Speaker 3: it was because he was in office.
Speaker 5: But you're implying because he's in office.
Speaker 3: It doesn't hurt. Does it hurt?
Speaker 5: Well, evidently you're a Trumps supporter.
Speaker 3: I am a supporter of cheap eggs and milk. How
Speaker 3: about you?
Speaker 5: Trump has nothing to do with that.
Speaker 3: How about you?
Speaker 5: How about me?
Speaker 3: How about you? Are you not a supporter of cheap
Speaker 3: eggs and milk? Isn't that a reasonable goal?
Speaker 5: Of course, because of Trump, he lowered the price.
Speaker 3: Did he raise the price of eggs and milk, non winner.
Speaker 3: Thank you very much for the call. Eight hundred eight
Speaker 3: four eight nine two two two with Roger Welcome to
Speaker 3: the Other side of Midnight.
Speaker 6: Hi Hey Walter, did you ever find out the name
Speaker 6: of that of the who that individual was? Standing? This
Speaker 6: to Hailey Stevens?
Speaker 3: No, did you have?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Who is it?
Speaker 6: Kind of are you referring to the androgynist looking teenager
Speaker 6: or so wearing the white T shirt with the Ford
Speaker 6: emblem on.
Speaker 3: It, with the blonde hair. I don't know if it's
Speaker 3: a teenager. I was just curious who it was because
Speaker 3: I kept thinking based on how that person looked, if
Speaker 3: it was a kid, she'd start referring or deferring or
Speaker 3: looking at that person. But she didn't, so I didn't
Speaker 3: have any visual clues as to who that is. Who
Speaker 3: is it?
Speaker 6: Okay, Well, if we're talking about the same moment, are
Speaker 6: we are?
Speaker 3: We are? We are?
Speaker 6: Video clip? Okay, it's the one of the sons of
Speaker 6: the congresswoman standing to Steven's right, that blonde haired lady.
Speaker 3: Yeah, on the black top.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's her, one of her two sons.
Speaker 3: Got it. I wonder he wasn't doing anything. That's what's
Speaker 3: so weird that he wasn't speaking, He didn't appear to
Speaker 3: be interacting. He was just standing there and stood there
Speaker 3: for a long time. And I thought that was very
Speaker 3: strange and poorly dressed for being in such an important form.
Speaker 6: But I think he was wearing his best white Ford
Speaker 6: T shirt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was definitely his best shirt, There's no doubt
Speaker 3: about that. Now, Roger, what else do you have to report?
Speaker 3: Do you have other news in Idaho? Do you have
Speaker 3: other news from Idaho?
Speaker 6: Uh? Not really? Things are? Things are going well?

Speaker 3: of midnight from the Bronx. How you doing, buddy, How
Speaker 3: you doing.
Speaker 4: I'm siging, I'm siging.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 4: I just wanted to pick up on one of the
Speaker 4: themes that you put out today, you know, for discussion.
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, this is this is the great shift. We
Speaker 3: can talk about whatever needs to be discussed, the great
Speaker 3: mysteries of our time.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, yeah, I found things that used to be free.
Speaker 3: Now you have things that used to be free that
Speaker 3: we now we have to pay for. We have to
Speaker 3: pay for bread when we go into a restaurant, We
Speaker 3: have to pay for hair for our tires, which is
Speaker 3: the stupidest thing who's going to grab those phone calls? Here?
Speaker 3: My friend? Right, I'm talking to another friend, and what
Speaker 3: happened the guy? Where's the guy? Where's Brandon? Where's the guy?
Speaker 3: I'm just asking technical questions. I should never I should
Speaker 3: you said? What you tell me? I didn't send anybody away?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 3: I didn't send anybody away? I kept saying, where is he? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Did you find him? He's not that? All right? That's exciting.
Speaker 3: After your go ahead? What what? What's your report?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Again the theme that things used before you now
Speaker 4: you gotta pay for it. I called Optimum to basically
Speaker 4: just talk about the service, the problems I was having.
Speaker 5: With the service.
Speaker 4: But you know, and for me, he got to a
Speaker 4: session where to me, for me to talk to somebody,
Speaker 4: a live person would cost five cents. That's the first
Speaker 4: time I'm experiencing something like that. What I'm calling provider
Speaker 4: like Optimum. Yeah, and they're telling and I need to
Speaker 4: speak with a human being, and right telling me that
Speaker 4: would cost five cents?
Speaker 3: Were going to charge Optimum?
Speaker 8: Is it?
Speaker 3: Tell me what Optimum is?
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sorry, it's an internet provider, you know, tell it.
Speaker 3: They want to charge you five bucks to talk to
Speaker 3: customer service. Is that what you tell me?
Speaker 5: Yes, that is correct Edgar.
Speaker 3: This is one of the greatest mysteries that we've heard
Speaker 3: in a long time. The customer service wants to charge
Speaker 3: you five dollars to talk to them about your crappy
Speaker 3: service from Optimum? Is that right?
Speaker 5: That that is correct?
Speaker 3: What'd you do? And did you curse them out?
Speaker 4: I would have, Oh, you know, I figured no, I
Speaker 4: just you know, I said, you know what, I'm gonna
Speaker 4: just go with it. And then but it surprised me
Speaker 4: because it's the first time ever in my life that
Speaker 4: to talk to customer service and they're charging me.
Speaker 3: I can't believe it. You sure? You sure that happened?
Speaker 3: You sure that they wanted you to pay for customer
Speaker 3: service at optimum? Optimum?
Speaker 6: Whoa?
Speaker 3: This is This is great stuff for a talk show.
Speaker 3: There couldn't be better stuff than this. What else?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 6: I think what else?
Speaker 3: You something else?
Speaker 4: What else?
Speaker 5: It's on a disc?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 4: You know the song that you played? Everything is You?
Speaker 3: Stylistics?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been always critical of lyrics, and I think
Speaker 4: that you know that's a you know that you are everything?
Speaker 4: Everything is stupid lyrics?
Speaker 3: Why do you feel that Edgar, why do you feel
Speaker 3: that way?
Speaker 4: Because I know you. Everything is you, you are, Everything
Speaker 4: is post supposed to be poetic, but I take things literally.
Speaker 8: And it's like.
Speaker 4: It's the lyrics are inherently stupid to me. I don't know.
Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna have we're gonna have to study
Speaker 3: these stylistic lyrics and we're gonna listen to about a
Speaker 3: minute of it to hear the stupid part. When you
Speaker 3: hear the stupidest part, stay on the phone, and I
Speaker 3: want you to say, this is the stupid part. Let's
Speaker 3: listen together and see how it feels about the stylistic Okay,
Speaker 3: and we can hit the vocal right now.
Speaker 8: Somebody just like you.
Speaker 4: She I thought it was you.
Speaker 3: And you could be a stylistic. Listen to how well
Speaker 3: you said.
Speaker 2: You don't.

Speaker 3: much for the call. Edgar. Eight hundred eight four eight

Speaker 2: No, just grassy fields and some small signs.
Speaker 8: She's shold people, sure take the boring as vacations. Didn't
Speaker 8: you do nothing exciting?
Speaker 2: We did go to an amusement park one day.
Speaker 8: Now you're getting warm. Did you go on any scary
Speaker 8: roller coasters?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 2: My wife was tired, so we just sat and watched.
Speaker 8: Man. I hope I die before I start acting half
Speaker 8: dead like that.
Speaker 2: Well, wait, there was one thing. While we were sitting there.
Speaker 2: Two girls got off a ride and threw up right
Speaker 2: in front of us.
Speaker 8: Now we're talking. Did you get some good pictures?
Speaker 5: Is that it?

Speaker 10: Become the Media, I'm call eight hundred eighty.
Speaker 5: Eight nine to.
Speaker 3: Congratulations. There's Frank. Welcome to the other side of Midnight
Speaker 3: with Walter Sterling.
Speaker 7: Hi, Yes, hi, Walter, I'm curious to ask you. Maybe
Speaker 7: you have an opinion on this, maybe you might not,
Speaker 7: But it seems that Kamala Harris, the former presidential candidate
Speaker 7: for the presidency in the last election, is attempting to run.
Speaker 7: She hasn't declared anything as of yet, but she doesn't
Speaker 7: seem like she's in good shape. Neither do any other
Speaker 7: candidates like Bootyjack who or Cassio quotees tell me, Walter,
Speaker 7: do you think there's any candidates that can actually run
Speaker 7: against the Republican nominee, whoever it might be after Donald
Speaker 7: Trump leaves?
Speaker 3: Oh, somebody will run. I don't think there's anybody who
Speaker 3: could stay on the same track with any Republican There
Speaker 3: at least I don't want to talk about politics is
Speaker 3: boring us crap, But there are at least three candidates
Speaker 3: on the Republican Party who are spectacular candidates. And there's
Speaker 3: no Democrat that I can think of that you can
Speaker 3: think of, or else you would have already said it.
Speaker 3: And you're smart, you know you waste your time watching
Speaker 3: Fox News. The fact is there aren't any There's nobody
Speaker 3: that they could put up against the Secretary of State.
Speaker 3: There's no one they could put up against the Vice President.
Speaker 3: I think I don't even know if he's old enough.
Speaker 3: Who's that guy in Texas, that congressman in Texas, And
Speaker 3: who's young young congressman. He's great, he's spectacular. And then
Speaker 3: there's always Senator Senator Hawley from from St. Louis, Missouri.
Speaker 3: Senator Hawley from Missouri. He's spectacular, he'd be great. They
Speaker 3: there are many, many, a deep bench. All of them
Speaker 3: would be any Democrat that I can think of today.
Speaker 3: What do you think?
Speaker 7: Well, I used to be a Republican for twelve years,
Speaker 7: but I'm a lifelong Democrat, and I just I tried
Speaker 7: the party.
Speaker 5: For a while.
Speaker 7: But I really believe that this doesn't look too good
Speaker 7: for them. And I know that King Jeffreys is not
Speaker 7: going to come out of nowhere.
Speaker 3: He's a horrible person. He's horrible, He can't run for anything.
Speaker 3: Nobody likes him. Nobody likes him. He may have policies
Speaker 3: you agree with, but is a likable guy you want
Speaker 3: him talking to? Putin?
Speaker 7: Absolutely not right.
Speaker 3: That's the bottom line. Always think, who do I want
Speaker 3: talking to putin? None of those clowns. Thank you, Frank,
Speaker 3: I appreciate the call. Eight hundred and eighty four eight
Speaker 3: nine two two two with Sarah. Congratulations, Sarah, welcome.

Speaker 12: my god, that's so I listen to thank you and
Speaker 12: thank you because when I want to calm down at
Speaker 12: the end of the day, your voice is great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can put you right to sleep. Is that
Speaker 3: a gift out till No?
Speaker 12: No, But if I read you a story, you would
Speaker 12: have those or for ready. But I wanted to tell
Speaker 12: you when I took a Brooklyn College course in romantic literature,
Speaker 12: the teachers then were talking about those buildings that you
Speaker 12: said were insane asylums. Yes, but Hussiery and her part
Speaker 12: of the thesis for her PhD as an English professor,
Speaker 12: she wrote about that they were put there for uncooperative
Speaker 12: wives who would not accept their husband's alliances and mistresses.
Speaker 3: That is one of the reasons that people were committed.
Speaker 3: That you could commit. Husbands could commit their wives for
Speaker 3: being basically annoying, among other things that people were committed for.
Speaker 3: Was he ready for this nostalgia that they had? They
Speaker 3: had too much interest in the past. They had a
Speaker 3: romance with the past, and this was a culture that
Speaker 3: was trying to establish a new world order in the
Speaker 3: United States. They were trying to establish new things such
Speaker 3: as pay for electricity that there was there was to
Speaker 3: be no questioning about where the world was going. And
Speaker 3: what's so weird. And the reason it's so intriguing is
Speaker 3: some of these were six thousand bed asylums. Six thousand
Speaker 3: bed asylums. Can you imagine that in the middle of
Speaker 3: in the middle of cornfields and it was insane. Hey, Sarah,
Speaker 3: thanks very much for.
Speaker 12: The one other thing. Quickly, I was going in my
Speaker 12: local cz it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, it doesn't work like that. You can't take
Speaker 3: her mid sentence and put her on hold and assume
Speaker 3: I want to keep talking to her. No, I'm not
Speaker 3: going to do that.
Speaker 9: These Network update on Brandon Eisen. Abdul Elsa yet is
Speaker 9: now the projected winner in Michigan's Democrat primary or US Senate,
Speaker 9: with a razor thin margin of about twenty thousand votes
Speaker 9: before all are counted. The count is close enough that
Speaker 9: there still has been no formal concession from Hailey Stevens.
Speaker 9: As President Trump heads to vegas authorities in Los Angeles,
Speaker 9: they say that they arrested a man who was walking
Speaker 9: the grounds at his California golf course on Sunday and
Speaker 9: appeared to be monitoring security planning ahead of the President's visit.
Speaker 9: The La County Sheriff's Department said that the man was
Speaker 9: taking photos and video and had a sixteen round magazine
Speaker 9: with ammunition in his pocket. They also recovered a loaded
Speaker 9: pistol in his car. The thirty eight year old man
Speaker 9: was charged with several felonies, including second degree robbery and
Speaker 9: possession of a prohibited firearm. President Trump now says that
Speaker 9: a deal on the straight of horror Moves could come
Speaker 9: as early as today or tomorrow. An agreement on that
Speaker 9: could potentially help bring an end to the war with Iran,
Speaker 9: though there are some conflicting messages still coming from Iran
Speaker 9: and Oma. This is the Worldwide News Network.
Speaker 10: Become the media call eight hundred and eighty four eight
Speaker 10: nine to two two.
Speaker 3: Now I want to share something with you. Now. Some
Speaker 3: people must watch while others sleep. One of the most
Speaker 3: critical times for news gathering is right now. For the
Speaker 3: Worldwide News Network overnight anchor Brandon Eisen and his team
Speaker 3: of producers Carl Sundberg and Spencer rain. They're the ones
Speaker 3: who are watching the news for us. Brandon is our

Speaker 3: at the Worldwide News Network are putting together special reports
Speaker 3: for you and me at this time, and they'll be
Speaker 3: here every night, this Worldwide News Network. Let me tell you,
Speaker 3: this doesn't happen in American radio. This doesn't happen. What
Speaker 3: happens at most radio companies, terrible radio companies, is they
Speaker 3: keep cutting their staff, cutting back, closing news divisions, closing
Speaker 3: news departments. That's all they do. John and Margot Katzimatids,
Speaker 3: along with Lee Harris and Chad Lopez, I said, well,
Speaker 3: why don't we start a news service, Why don't we
Speaker 3: start the Worldwide News Service? And they've started to make
Speaker 3: deals with other countries to provide both the service and
Speaker 3: to distribute the service and make it the Worldwide News Service. Now,
Speaker 3: Lee Harris, who's their head of news and head of programming,
Speaker 3: I'll tell you a secret, great broadcaster, great newsperson, insane
Speaker 3: amount of experience on the air as a newsperson, but
Speaker 3: also built an international software business. And his international software
Speaker 3: business gave him and gives him entree to dozens of
Speaker 3: countries where he's done business, has a great reputation. Isn't
Speaker 3: just calling up stranger, He's calling up people he knows
Speaker 3: and says, listen, we put together. There is a special
Speaker 3: news service that's terrific. And that's what you're gonna They're
Speaker 3: gonna come on every night at about this time, give
Speaker 3: us an update on the news of the of the morning,
Speaker 3: of the day, and get you set up for exciting times.
Speaker 3: There you go, the Worldwide News Network. Now what's this?
Speaker 3: Let's see. I don't want to do that. What have
Speaker 3: you got there? Bill? What do you have? Okay, then
Speaker 3: let me tell you what I think we should do. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's always good to run Florida stories.
Speaker 2: Okay, if you want to go to.
Speaker 13: Or fight an alligator in a swamp, then the other
Speaker 13: side of me nights.
Speaker 2: What do you want? It's Florida's Story.
Speaker 10: I'm James Parker and this is Florida Story. Hey, thank
Speaker 10: you so much for joining me for our first Florida story.
Speaker 10: We're going to Dral, Florida or Durral or but I
Speaker 10: think you're gonna feel the same way as I do.
Speaker 10: I feel like we're missing a lot of interesting details here.
Speaker 14: More than forty eight hours after a fire ignited at
Speaker 14: a waste to energy facility in Durrel, smoke is still
Speaker 14: seen billowing from the plant. New images from Sky ten
Speaker 14: shows a gigantic hole in the roof of one of
Speaker 14: the buildings on the property off northwest ninety seventh Avenue.
Speaker 14: It's the only waste to energy facility in the county
Speaker 14: and it processes more than a million tons of waste
Speaker 14: to annually.
Speaker 10: Yeah, so what are they talking about? What I do
Speaker 10: understand is that there's some sort of trash, just the
Speaker 10: vague concept of trash that is being taken through this facility.
Speaker 10: The other notable thing is how big the buildings are.
Speaker 10: And you understand how when you see giant buildings that
Speaker 10: look like it's like an Amazon distribution center, like one
Speaker 10: of those big Walmart distribution centers. This is how big
Speaker 10: the buildings are. And if that thing's on fire in
Speaker 10: the middle, how do you get a host to it? Well,
Speaker 10: you can't. And I did a little more reading trying
Speaker 10: to figure out what that's going on, and the nearest
Speaker 10: I can tell is there's actually a streak going on
Speaker 10: right now in America of landfill's catching on fire. And
Speaker 10: actually this is starting to happen in other countries too.
Speaker 10: And the thought is the culprit is these lithium ion batteries.
Speaker 10: I'm know, Walter White level chemist or whatever, but all
Speaker 10: these little batteries that are in your cell phone and
Speaker 10: your laptop and your smart watch. And one of the
Speaker 10: big culprits that makes this a very Florida Sniffins subject
Speaker 10: is one of the big culprits is vate pins. That's right,
Speaker 10: vate pins, the batteries that after the thrown away a
Speaker 10: lot of times, they still have juice left in them,
Speaker 10: and if they get pushed and stay on, they can
Speaker 10: ignite and their cause in landfill fires, and it's somewhat
Speaker 10: of an epidemic. I'll keep an eye on it for you.
Speaker 10: But that's kind of cool or gross or both. For
Speaker 10: our next Lord of story, we're going to Clay County
Speaker 10: floor and I can't be more specific than that because
Speaker 10: this isn't in a city, this isn't a rural area.
Speaker 10: And what we have here is a seventy seven year
Speaker 10: old Florida man who has what I think is always
Speaker 10: just an amazing hobby. This guy just for funzies. It's
Speaker 10: a pilot. He's got his own little plane. And when
Speaker 10: I say little plane, it's itty bitty. I don't mean
Speaker 10: like it's a G six. I mean it's like him
Speaker 10: and one other dude in that plane, and it has
Speaker 10: the little tripod wheels, and you know, it looks like
Speaker 10: something that I probably wouldn't get into, especially if a
Speaker 10: seventy seven year old Ford man. It's like, oh, trust me.
Speaker 10: Actually his plane was working fine. It's just his GPS
Speaker 10: led him to the wrong spot. And so where he
Speaker 10: was going down expecting there to be a runway, there
Speaker 10: was a cow passer and he just said, nah, you
Speaker 10: know what, go for it and get kind of light
Speaker 10: on gas.
Speaker 4: Here.
Speaker 3: This is a wide open space.
Speaker 10: I think I could safely land here and then figure
Speaker 10: out what went wrong. So he goes to land and
Speaker 10: everything actually is going okay, believe it or not, until
Speaker 10: there's a herd of cows over the hill and he
Speaker 10: doesn't want to injure the herd of cows. So after
Speaker 10: it's already landed and he's breaking, he has to jerk
Speaker 10: the wheel, and it wasn't the crash landing or the
Speaker 10: emergency landing that wrecked him. It was him having to
Speaker 10: jerk the wheels during the landing process to avoid some
Speaker 10: cows that flipped him up over upside down. And so
Speaker 10: now he's laying on his back like a turtle and
Speaker 10: can't slip back over. He's actually going to be okay,
Speaker 10: seventy seven year old Florida man, get a less dangerous hobby.
Speaker 10: All right, For our next floor story, we're going to Northport,
Speaker 10: Florida where in this one look, the headline is pretty
Speaker 10: cut and dry. North Port grandmother shot by six year
Speaker 10: old while driving. Now the six year old wasn't driving,
Speaker 10: become the.
Speaker 4: Media call eight eight.
Speaker 13: Now seems like Levi, Islan and Julia finally did get
Speaker 13: that date with Lorenzo. After really this morning interview with Simba, Angie,
Speaker 13: Jasmine and Cavin, Lorenzo got shame for having not taken Julia.
Speaker 2: Out on a date.
Speaker 8: Yet, where are you taking first date?
Speaker 13: Where can you go somewhere rooftop Bar's day? So I
Speaker 13: guess despite the break of allegations, it seems like these
Speaker 13: guys at least got a romantic meal together.
Speaker 3: Yes, status of love island. Love island status. We will
Speaker 3: always keep you up to date. It's the least cultural
Speaker 3: thing we can do. But there it is. No dad
Speaker 3: really gets a vacation because Dad has to bait the fish,
Speaker 3: the fishing rod, he has to set it up. He's
Speaker 3: got to clean up at the beach or the lake.
Speaker 3: When you guys are done. You rent a boat, what's
Speaker 3: Dad have to do. You got to make sure that
Speaker 3: it's cleaned out. You don't get a cleaning fee for
Speaker 3: renting the boat. Dad has as much work on vacation
Speaker 3: as he has at any other time, maybe more and
Speaker 3: harder because it's mostly new. It's not stuff that Dad
Speaker 3: usually does. Kid wants to play miniature golf. Mom doesn't
Speaker 3: feel like it. Dad does it. Everything that the kids
Speaker 3: want to do that mom doesn't feel like doing, Dad
Speaker 3: has to do. That is the challenge of fatherhood. The
Speaker 3: real challenge of fatherhood is there are no vacations. And
Speaker 3: this is the difference between being a father and being
Speaker 3: a baby daddy. A baby daddy does none of this.
Speaker 3: A baby daddy is in a different city and brags
Speaker 3: about being a baby daddy, whereas a real father there
Speaker 3: miniature golf, playing catch, cleaning up after on the beach,
Speaker 3: baiting the hook at the fishing rod, at the lake,
Speaker 3: renting the boat, and on and on and on and
Speaker 3: then bonus track. In order to get ready to go,
Speaker 3: Dad's always thinking about when should we leave? What was
Speaker 3: that noise in the car? Is it really gonna be
Speaker 3: safe for fourteen hours? Am I finally gonna is the
Speaker 3: kid finally gonna drive? Or will she claim that she
Speaker 3: has a bad stomach again? You get it. Dads don't
Speaker 3: get vacation. The vacation Dad wants that he can't ask for.
Speaker 3: This is the worst thing he can't ask for. The
Speaker 3: vacation Dad wants is to be alone. Dad wants to
Speaker 3: be alone. Give him a week where you guys go away.
Speaker 3: He'd be very If you said to Dad, you we're
Speaker 3: gonna go and we're gonna go to the beach. You
Speaker 3: don't have to come. What you say, we're gonna go
Speaker 3: to the beach, you don't have to come? His head
Speaker 3: would explode. No, you can stay home, do whatever you want.
Speaker 3: We're gonna go to the beach. That would be the
Speaker 3: best gift that you could get your husband, father, be
Speaker 3: the best thing you could do if you look at
Speaker 3: him and say, you know, I know you like the beach,
Speaker 3: and I know you love us, but why don't you
Speaker 3: just stay home for a week. It would be the
Speaker 3: greatest gift because this is what he would do. I'm
Speaker 3: going to promise you exactly what he's going to do.
Speaker 3: He would promise himself that he's going to clean something,
Speaker 3: probably the basement, something that you would never do. Dad
Speaker 3: would say, all right, I'm going to stay home and
Speaker 3: clean this, and he'd never get around to it. He'd
Speaker 3: start going to bed at four in the morning, listening
Speaker 3: to the Other Side of Midnight on the Red Apple
Speaker 3: Audio Networks. He'd be listening to us, and then he'd
Speaker 3: go to sleep around four in the morning, and at
Speaker 3: some point he'd wake up, but not anytime early. He'd
Speaker 3: watch a poker on television, Pond Stars, storage Wars. He'd
Speaker 3: find something on ancient Aliens. He'd find something on the
Speaker 3: History Channel, either a war or ancient a something like that.
Speaker 3: He'd make the air conditioner fifty, not seventy eight. He'd
Speaker 3: be at fifty, the lowest he could get it. That's
Speaker 3: what he'd do, and he'd be in heaven. This would
Speaker 3: be the best vacation you could give your husband, father,
Speaker 3: guy you live with, be the best vacation. Isn't that
Speaker 3: amazing because any other vacation than a man thinks of
Speaker 3: he's thinking about. I got to get to the airport,
Speaker 3: I got to get them through security. I have to
Speaker 3: be able to make them happy with this drive the
Speaker 3: car rent It's all a chore to a guy. To
Speaker 3: a guy, it's all a chure, and he doesn't really
Speaker 3: get a vacation. The man is not blessed with the
Speaker 3: real vacation. I've got a website that you might enjoy
Speaker 3: because you'll learn a tremendous amount about the show. It's
Speaker 3: Walter Sterling's show. There are new pictures there. Be sure
Speaker 3: to check it out. And you can get at a
Speaker 3: Midnight Misfit. That's what you are. Membership card. You can

Speaker 3: dot Sterling at WABC radio dot com. This is the
