Speaker 1: Mammitry just phoned my phone, Yes she has my number,
Speaker 1: to tell me that she's waiting on the nurse to
Speaker 1: get her the phone that calls into the radio station.
Speaker 1: We're all sitting here waiting on you, Mamme Tree, what's
Speaker 1: up anyway? At the mercy of the fine staff at
Speaker 1: Florence Park Care for Lynette slash Mam Tree slash Patricia Owens.
Speaker 1: I don't know. She may change your name again this
Speaker 1: morning before we're done. It's hard to resist the temptation
Speaker 1: after his first week not to call Tom Bredebit at
Speaker 1: home and tell him he's late. But I'm not that
Speaker 1: kind of guy. I just I think that to really
Speaker 1: make him feel a part of the team, you got
Speaker 1: to pull some pranks every once in a while. Dave Keaton,
Speaker 1: who's in the producer's chair today, said, that's me. We're
Speaker 1: not doing it. You know, I don't have his number,
Speaker 1: and this reason alone, I probably never will, but it
Speaker 1: did cross my mind. Actually, somebody, a customer at the bar, suggested,
Speaker 1: but Tom, you're safe. Hey, good job this first week.
Speaker 1: We're all rooting for you, And so it goes. I
Speaker 1: was reflecting after a conversation with the powers that be
Speaker 1: this week about how much I like being on the radio.
Speaker 1: Of course, I never dreamed in nineteen eighty when I
Speaker 1: started that I would be also on a podcast. Well,
Speaker 1: I will let you know that because of the way
Speaker 1: we do this program, the music we play and the
Speaker 1: content we air is fine for on the radio, not
Speaker 1: so much for on the podcast. So what I'm suggesting
Speaker 1: to you, and if you're listening to this you already
Speaker 1: are following my instructions or my request, make sure you
Speaker 1: tune in bright and early every Saturday morning so you
Speaker 1: don't miss a minute of the show. Because there are
Speaker 1: many elements of this program, it's just the way we
Speaker 1: do it that, for one reason or another, for legal reasons,
Speaker 1: aren't allowed on the podcast. Sixteen years ago, in January
Speaker 1: of two thousand and nine, more than sixteen years ago,
Speaker 1: I gave up a full time radio career. And I'm
Speaker 1: not kidding you. I didn't have it taken away. I
Speaker 1: gave up a full time radio career at another company
Speaker 1: so I could continue to do this show every Saturday morning.
Speaker 1: And I'm not claiming this as some giant badge of honor.
Speaker 1: It's not. Well, look at me. Look how much I've
Speaker 1: sacrificed for my craft, which I probably have a couple
Speaker 1: of wives later. But I love doing this show so much.
Speaker 1: When I discovered it in nineteen ninety seven and I
Speaker 1: was faced with the prospect of not getting to do
Speaker 1: this show on Saturday morning on seven hundred WLW, so
Speaker 1: I could continue making a lot more money doing the
Speaker 1: Monday through Friday every day radio, but about fifty or
Speaker 1: sixty grand a year because I love being on the
Speaker 1: radio with you every Saturday morning, and it's a wonderful
Speaker 1: cast of characters that we've been able to assemble. Dick
Speaker 1: is hanging right now in the line. I'm waiting for
Speaker 1: mammetry Dave from Harrison with bad dad jokes a little
Speaker 1: past six o'clock, if that's not your cup of tea.
Speaker 1: Old radio Rick will be here about six fifteen or
Speaker 1: so this morning with a reception report. He's become a
Speaker 1: very dear friend of mine. The gang from Ripley either
Speaker 1: at Brookies or Snappers this morning, I'm not certain which one,
Speaker 1: but we'll find out around six thirty five from Edna
Speaker 1: calling in with these wonderful commentaries. It's Paul Harvey plus
Speaker 1: plus plus in the modern age and he's fantastic and
Speaker 1: he's nice enough to call every week. Was something he's
Speaker 1: been preparing all week for a little after seven, environmental
Speaker 1: engineer Steve Schulty with the truth about the environment, about
Speaker 1: the climate, not the indoctrination or the narrative that's approved.
Speaker 1: Rocko Costelano with fitness tips. He's our biohacker, Tom Davis,
Speaker 1: Tom Davis Diaries, Jim Lebarber, the music professor. At seven
Speaker 1: thirty five this morning, rock and Roll Archaeology is back
Speaker 1: Science Mike just to Tad. After eight o'clock, Brother Rick
Speaker 1: Green with a scripture from the Bible, the Word of God,
Speaker 1: maybe my favorite part of the show. Around eight fifteen
Speaker 1: or so, h gifts from Wally if I can come
Speaker 1: up with the a fairly decent or maybe not even
Speaker 1: a decent joke. You'll hear that around a thirty five
Speaker 1: and Moe Egger will wrap things up before Mike Allen
Speaker 1: and Saturday midday, so you have your schedule, your schedule
Speaker 1: appointment radio to hear it all. Make sure you're tuned
Speaker 1: in on the radio this morning. I'm so glad to
Speaker 1: have you. It's five point fifty three
