Speaker 1: there steering the ship. How you liking being on the
Speaker 1: show so far? How long has it been? Two months?
Speaker 1: Three months?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I lose track. But it's fun steering the ship. It's
Speaker 3: a big ship, but it's a is a very fun one.
Speaker 1: It's a stinky ship.
Speaker 3: It can be very stinky.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we are quite stinky. So I didn't realize that
Speaker 1: we did the story. I thought it was last week
Speaker 1: about a Ed the zebra.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that flying through the air. He's a helicopter.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize. So when we did the story last week,
Speaker 1: I did what I'm gonna go ahead and put it
Speaker 1: out there because I'm fair and honest. I did what
Speaker 1: any journalist should never do. I assumed that they caught
Speaker 1: Ed the zebra. They did not. I thought when we
Speaker 1: did the story last I.
Speaker 2: Saw him in a big basket. They were flying him
Speaker 2: in a helico.
Speaker 1: I'm saying when we did the story last week, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what you get when you walk in right in
Speaker 1: the middle of the break. You know, almost what you
Speaker 1: try to inject yourself.
Speaker 2: Myself with plenty.
Speaker 1: No listen, I thought last week when we did this
Speaker 1: story that they had caught the zebra, that that the
Speaker 1: same day. You know what I mean, you got it wrong.
Speaker 1: You know I got it wrong. I got way wrong.
Speaker 1: So I just did a retraction on my story, like
Speaker 1: any journalist would.
Speaker 2: This zebra, I told you, runs down the street, takes
Speaker 2: a right like he's on a computer, Like he's like this.
Speaker 2: This zebra had personality and even writing in the little pouch,
Speaker 2: his face looks like.
Speaker 1: I gotcha. Well, if you remember, the zebra was quite
Speaker 1: smart because he ran into a referee convention in Nashville.
Speaker 2: Yeah it was a good move.
Speaker 1: And you know they're all black and white stripe too,
Speaker 1: that he couldn't find it. But evidently the zebra was
Speaker 1: free and rolling. How was it? How does that happen?
Speaker 1: He was roaming free for over a week.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, let me read this real quick, because I
Speaker 2: got this in the DMS. Not too long ago, we
Speaker 2: were talking about the riots.
Speaker 1: And twenty twenty somebody slid in your DM.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did. My buddy from high school, he said, Yeah,
Speaker 2: listening to you guys now, My grandfather was shot and
Speaker 2: killed in the line of duty when my mom was
Speaker 2: just thirteen years old. And those protesters we were talking
Speaker 2: about spray painted over his name, he said, And I said, man,
Speaker 2: I answered. Then he said his killer was the first
Speaker 2: executed by death penalty in Louisville.
Speaker 1: Well, well, since we're talking about the desecration of falling officers,
Speaker 1: firefighters EMS Memorial Square, let me just take a couple
Speaker 1: of seconds and remind if you haven't, if you've gotten
Speaker 1: I have not. The guy's name was Greg Fisher. Greg
Speaker 1: Fisher was the merit at the time. And not only
Speaker 1: did they spray paint over the fallen officers' names, but
Speaker 1: they also desecrated the eternal flame by cutting the gas line. Okay,
Speaker 1: so Greg Fisher. His response was, well, make sure that
Speaker 1: they have water, porta potties and electricity. And they were
Speaker 1: camped out illegally at this square where we honor our
Speaker 1: fallen officers, our fallen firefighters are falling EMS and this
Speaker 1: piece of trash. His only concern was take care of
Speaker 1: the people who are desecrating this monument for our officers
Speaker 1: that have died, you know. So it's disgusting.
Speaker 2: The Tony Awards. I know you are a big Tony Awards.
Speaker 1: Guy ob taping it, so don't tell me.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, I won't tell you who won.
Speaker 1: No, go ahead, I'll know who. Are we kidding?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: I hope it was. The Tony Awards goes out to
Speaker 1: people like Tony Soprano. Today it's playing the Street Awards
Speaker 1: shows just for Tony.
Speaker 2: Well, they revealed on the show that they they had
Speaker 2: the highest grossing season of all time for Broadway, one
Speaker 2: point nine billion dollars over across all productions, and I
Speaker 2: thought wow, and then I went, oh, I know how
Speaker 2: it's the cheapest ticket to see any of these things?
Speaker 2: Are a thousand bucks to go to see a play
Speaker 2: or a musical in New York. I'm like, hello, friends
Speaker 2: that have gone up there to go and they're like, Hey,
Speaker 2: we're going to see a play. And I'm like, so
Speaker 2: the two tickets for your to go see the musical
Speaker 2: or play was more than your hotel. It's like, this
Speaker 2: is crazy. Why is it one thousand.
Speaker 1: Dollars unless you know how like in TV shows they
Speaker 1: have like a judge and to settle the case, So
Speaker 1: say you don't have the money to pay mister VANNEDI,
Speaker 1: but now you're gonna be his butler for two bunths.
Speaker 1: You know when they do crap like that. If there
Speaker 1: was a creative judge and they really wanted to smack me,
Speaker 1: they would say, Okay, you're sentenced to go watch Cats
Speaker 1: or whatever play it might be not Cats or I
Speaker 1: don't rent or whoever. So stupid, I would ask the
Speaker 1: judge of say, Cats, do you want me to go
Speaker 1: right now?
Speaker 2: There's there's no play John liked it?
Speaker 1: No stop, Oh Skettles, Hey Skettles.
Speaker 2: Uh, there's no there's no player musical. I would pay
Speaker 2: a thousand dollars to go see I'm not, especially if
Speaker 2: I'm sorry two thousand dollars, because I'm certainly not going
Speaker 2: without Jackie. So it's you're telling me two thousand dollars
Speaker 2: for us to go see a play. I'm not. There's
Speaker 2: no play that I'm going to see for two thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, there could be an argument for hair
Speaker 1: because there's nudity all through it all right, but but
Speaker 1: still still but.
Speaker 2: I get it one point nine billion.
Speaker 1: Here's an angle though, Oh Jackie, you want to go
Speaker 1: see Cats. Yeah, that's a fine idea, but the tickets
Speaker 1: are a thousand bucks apiece. So I'm gonna save our
Speaker 1: family a thousand and you go. See what I mean?
Speaker 1: She gets to see Cats.
Speaker 2: But these poor families that have I don't know, you know,
Speaker 2: daughters that are you know, eight and ten, and they
Speaker 2: want to go see the play what at Wicked whatever
Speaker 2: it is, and they's like they're dream to go to
Speaker 2: New York and actually go see a play on Broadway.
Speaker 2: And it's just like, as a parent, you're just like, Okay,
Speaker 2: it's three grand for us to go. This is crazy.
Speaker 2: It's crazy. I don't know how they do it, but that's.
Speaker 3: Why you're spending that kind of money, or you know,
Speaker 3: spending thousands of dollars on your kids at Disney World.
Speaker 2: Don't you ever, Yeah, don't you ever ever? Audi disparage
Speaker 2: the mouse like that again. Disney World is a magical place.
Speaker 1: Oh no, word, not Hamilton. But we're only five thousand
Speaker 1: dollars more.
Speaker 2: I spent the most I spent for one week. We
Speaker 2: were close about eight thousand.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2: Man? Wow? Well she was Maggie was six, Colley John
Speaker 2: was eight, and I wanted to make We were deciding
Speaker 2: whether we were going to do new carpet and new
Speaker 2: carpet up the stairs and around the thing. And I said, well,
Speaker 2: they'll never remember if I get a new carpet, but
Speaker 2: they'll remember the trip to Dizzy. So I got the
Speaker 2: one that's in the contemporary that overlooks I said, I
Speaker 2: need a balcony that overlooks the castle because I wanted that.
Speaker 1: It sounds like that sounds so affordable, So I'm thinking
Speaker 1: I'll coddle Lodge.
Speaker 2: So I got it. Yeah, And she was six and
Speaker 2: it was the cutest thing ever. So even if we
Speaker 2: weren't in the park at the time, she could sit
Speaker 2: there and she would she sit there in a little
Speaker 2: pajamas in a robe, and she'd put her head on
Speaker 2: the balcony rail and she'd watched the fireworks over the
Speaker 2: castle and it he was very special.
Speaker 3: Does she remember it?
Speaker 1: Though?
Speaker 2: I also I got to ask her.
Speaker 1: I got to ask her right on the air. See
Speaker 1: how she answers he's.
Speaker 2: Working working, She's got like she's in charge of like
Speaker 2: sixty kids where at a camp.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: Getting back to the zebra, Ed the Zebra was captured
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. The Rutherford County Sheriff's Office confirmed that Ed
Speaker 1: the Zebra was finally apprehended in the community of Christina
Speaker 1: in a state of The Sheriff's office said Ed was
Speaker 1: airlifted to an animal trailer that awaited his return.
Speaker 2: That's a perfect name for that animal. If you watch
Speaker 2: the videos, watch the video of the of the zebra
Speaker 2: flying through the air and then in the landing where
Speaker 2: the truck was. It was funny. The couple that owns
Speaker 2: the zebra was it was revealed that the couple has
Speaker 2: over one hundred animals.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they were wondering to know if they're going
Speaker 1: to charge charge and they said, well, it's not really
Speaker 1: a black and white area on the law.
Speaker 3: This is all just a teaser for the z Netflix show.
Speaker 2: What is this all? Stop? There's no Zebra King. You
Speaker 2: know you have me For a second, I went what again?
Speaker 2: Some people stopped watching The Tiger King because it was
Speaker 2: it started to get into animal abuse, which was the
Speaker 2: whole point of the thing. But people got lost in
Speaker 2: the characters in the show which were real people, but
Speaker 2: the the the chimpanzee one. If you don't watch it
Speaker 2: because it's awful. These people are crazy.
Speaker 1: And and do you think the tiger I don't think.
Speaker 1: Could be wrong, and usually I am. I don't think
Speaker 1: the Tiger King gets his legs without COVID because we're
Speaker 1: all stuck. Because for example, here's what it's all. That's
Speaker 1: here's a real world example. I never watched Survivor in
Speaker 1: my life, not one right, Okay, COVID happens. It's called
Speaker 1: we're locked down, and I go through Netflix. I see Survivor.
Speaker 1: I thought, what the hell has got a beach? So
Speaker 1: I sat there in our kitchen and watched Survivor. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't have done that without No, you're.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent right, Tiger King. Part of their success
Speaker 2: was it was COVID and we all needed something to watch.
Speaker 2: I think if that show comes out now, it's popular,
Speaker 2: but no way it takes over pop culture.
Speaker 3: First viral thing entertainment wise during COVID correctly was correct.
Speaker 2: You're absolutely one hundre percent correct. That is true.
Speaker 1: Well, you did a story similar to this. This, uh,
Speaker 1: this is Japan. Only Japan bars parents from giving kids
Speaker 1: stupid names.
Speaker 2: US a lot of countries doing this.
Speaker 1: I wish, I wish the US would.
Speaker 2: Move to they did. Did the story last week?
Speaker 1: Yeah? No, but theos were like, you know, obvious ones
Speaker 1: like Adolf Hiller and Jesus and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Messiah, they Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: People just make up names, yes, and it's it's have
Speaker 1: a naming court, say, don't know, try Kevin or Mike.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Anyway, some of the babies that were being born in
Speaker 1: Japan were getting giving uh funny names like Pikachu Pudding
Speaker 1: or Prince. The others.
Speaker 3: Pikachu Pikachu Pudding sounded like a double name.
Speaker 1: Bik at you Pudding sounds like a porn star.
Speaker 2: The second the second the kid can change his name,
Speaker 2: he will or she will.
Speaker 1: Do you see that new adult movie with Pikachu Pudding.
Speaker 2: Extra hod baby?
Speaker 1: Uh? An American Airlines flight couldn't land in Italy. Here's
Speaker 1: what happened. They were too big for the runway. It
Speaker 1: seems like you would have fought that out before you
Speaker 1: planted your flight to UH.
Speaker 2: I know what that's like airport.
Speaker 1: Oh did you see old Zippich? Hey, Uncle Milty. Yes,
Speaker 1: I didn't do the story. But now that you bring
Speaker 1: it up, Yeah, did you see where some people are
Speaker 1: claiming that taking the Ozmpic shot another that is making
Speaker 1: their wiener larger.
Speaker 2: I did not see that story. I tooked my first
Speaker 2: shot about eight days ago. We haven't really talked about it,
Speaker 2: but it was. It's barely it. It's really kind of
Speaker 2: it's an amazing drug. For sure.
Speaker 1: It is optical illusion because your your legs will get
Speaker 1: skinnier and there you go. But anyway, get back to
Speaker 1: the air American Airlines. An American Airlines flight bound for Naples,
Speaker 1: Italy had to change its course and divert to Rome.
Speaker 1: The Bowling seven eighty seven was too big for the
Speaker 1: Naples airport to handle. Again, it seems like that's something
Speaker 1: that could have been brought up pre flight, the airline
Speaker 1: calling that operational limitations. They couldn't land the Bowling seven
Speaker 1: eighty seven, so they had to land safely in Rome.
Speaker 1: Passengers there got were instructed to get on a bus
Speaker 1: and take a two hour journey to their original I'd
Speaker 1: be I hate anyway.
Speaker 2: Really, I I hates just stopping in Dallas on his
Speaker 2: way to Mexico.
Speaker 1: Because the wheels fall off every time. Every single time
Speaker 1: without failure. In Dallas. Uh, the lady that hands out
Speaker 1: pretzels caught in sick. We'll just grab her own damn pretzels.
Speaker 1: What was it?
Speaker 5: You don't understand? FAA says you need at least two
Speaker 5: pretzel delivery monitors on each flight in case of a
Speaker 5: pretzel emergency.
Speaker 1: Can you show me in the eighth we're in this
Speaker 1: FAA book. I'll look under p for pretzels.
Speaker 5: Sir, back away before we call security. I'll give you
Speaker 5: one more warning, mister Whitman, it's Witten Witten. Mister Whitman
Speaker 5: settled down.
Speaker 2: They used to hand out peanuts, and obviously they couldn't
Speaker 2: do it anymore because so many kids peanuts.
Speaker 1: Oh that makes more sense.
Speaker 2: So they so many kids bats have peanut night. It's
Speaker 2: it's insane. My kid's school I learned that about twenty
Speaker 2: years ago. My kids are in cool and they had
Speaker 2: whole peanut free tables and I was like, I don't
Speaker 2: even remember one kid having a Peanuts analogy. When I
Speaker 2: was growing up. I was like, what is going on?
Speaker 1: You know who? I think it's all fake and it's
Speaker 1: just propaganda from Big cashw or Big Pretzel or big
Speaker 1: I think you just cracked the Are you Cagney or lazy?
Speaker 1: Because you just cracked that case.

Speaker 2: me my food and you're picking up the food. You're
Speaker 2: doing the service. I'll tip you, but not if you're
Speaker 2: just making it.
Speaker 5: And I know this is crazy, sir, sir, First of all,
Speaker 5: subtled down. Second of all, you're acting like a fascist
Speaker 5: and a racist fascist. You're transphobic racist fastest here you go.
Speaker 2: It sounds more like I'll tell you.
Speaker 1: The other thing I hate worse than that is when
Speaker 1: you go to the grocery store whatever it might be,
Speaker 1: and you're ringing up and the grocery the non gender
Speaker 1: specific radio grocery person looks it says, okay, you're total.

Speaker 2: what I get a lot of times. The ham and

Speaker 1: it yet, but it's ticking, so I'm only guessing it's
Speaker 1: a backup alarm clock. Hey, y'all want to find out
Speaker 1: a little ado, a little history.
Speaker 2: I like U history. He was reported all he was
Speaker 2: my favorite subject in school.
Speaker 1: John, you might be the quickst I just mentioned it,
Speaker 1: and you are. You got it right there.
Speaker 3: That's more of a whip. I don't know if that
Speaker 3: was the best sound effect.
Speaker 2: Are you ready?
Speaker 1: It was today June sixth, nineteen thirty five. William Wilson
Speaker 1: and doctor Robert Smith of Akron, Ohio found it Alcoholics Anonymous. Wow,
Speaker 1: this slogan one year thirty five. The slogan one day
Speaker 1: at a Time was also also conceived.
Speaker 2: That date, and that is the reason they called the
Speaker 2: TV show one Day at a Time.
Speaker 1: And thank god for Alcoholics Anonymous. It has saved a
Speaker 1: lot of Yes, it has friends and family members of
Speaker 1: the wit.
Speaker 2: And there's no true words. Then I got today, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I got today.
Speaker 1: That's it focusing on one day at a time. It
Speaker 1: was today, June June tenth, Thank you. Nineteen forty four,
Speaker 1: Joe Knuxall officially became the youngest Major League Baseball player
Speaker 1: when he took the field at the age of fifteen
Speaker 1: years old.
Speaker 2: Well, that was during the Second World War and so
Speaker 2: many of the professional baseball players went off and play
Speaker 2: and were fighting the war, so I assume they were
Speaker 2: just looking for people that could play. That's also when
Speaker 2: no no offense to this guy in his youngest And
Speaker 2: that's also.
Speaker 1: That's also when Madonna started her league.
Speaker 2: That's not no, that isn't based on a true story.
Speaker 2: A league of her own.
Speaker 1: Hadna Tom Hanks.
Speaker 2: So you know what, there were many Ted Williams, maybe
Speaker 2: one of the greatest hitters of all time. I bought
Speaker 2: his frozen head as an auction. He was a pilot.
Speaker 2: He flew missions in World War Two and then went
Speaker 2: back here. I'll go back to baseball when a wars.
Speaker 1: Or well, speaking of pilots, it was today in nineteen
Speaker 1: forty eight, the Chuck Yeger yes, exceeded the speed of
Speaker 1: sound and a bell XS number one.
Speaker 2: Yes, So those things dropped out of a B twenty five.
Speaker 2: So what it is? So instead of bombs, they rigged
Speaker 2: this thing to where it didn't take off, so it
Speaker 2: would it would they drop it out and then the
Speaker 2: jet engine would start. And they thought that if you
Speaker 2: if you broke the sound barrier, that the entire plane
Speaker 2: would fall apart right and blast open. So people think, oh, well,
Speaker 2: that's nothing. No, it was a huge deal. Chuck Yeger
Speaker 2: thought he was going to die, all right, So they
Speaker 2: didn't know. The night before he got drunk, fell off
Speaker 2: his horse and broke his ribs. Oh, so he got
Speaker 2: in and he couldn't he couldn't shut the canopy, so
Speaker 2: they'd cut off a broomstick so you could jam it
Speaker 2: in there because his ribs were broken. This is back
Speaker 2: when these guys were tough. Man shut the cockpit with it.
Speaker 2: He shut the canopy with a cut off broomstick. Wow.
Speaker 2: And then he broke the sound barrier, which is soon
Speaker 2: after that they kept breaking it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got, you got. You got stories like that,
Speaker 1: and then you got stories like Ronnie a Lot, Hey,
Speaker 1: your fingers, we're gonna need to do this to cut
Speaker 1: it off. What cut it off? Put me back of
Speaker 1: the game. And then now you got you're in my
Speaker 1: safe space. Please back up.
Speaker 2: And by the way, when they when he crossed the
Speaker 2: sound barrier, that you heard the boom. They thought he
Speaker 2: blew up. And then here he comes out of the sky.
Speaker 2: It's so American. It's so oh, I love it.
Speaker 1: How about that love that? It was also today June tenth,
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two, Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Brais is
Speaker 1: tied with Gil Hodges of the Giants the National League
Speaker 1: record for most Grand Slam home runs in a career.
Speaker 2: He was good yo fourteen.
Speaker 1: The Braves beat the Phillies fifteen to three to make
Speaker 1: the celebration.
Speaker 2: He that poor guy. When he broke and he was
Speaker 2: getting close to breaking Babe Bruce record, he got so
Speaker 2: many death threats that it just became normal. Everyone says, hey,
Speaker 2: if you break the we're gonna kill you, and they
Speaker 2: use certain language that was awful. But he I'm going
Speaker 2: to assume he it's interesting. Sometimes he says it didn't
Speaker 2: bother me, and the other ones were remade. Itim miserable.
Speaker 2: That year was miserable.
Speaker 1: I remember having a Hank Aaron baseball g love and.
Speaker 2: Didn't he have a candy bar or something? No, it
Speaker 2: was Babe Ruth, Babe Ruth.
Speaker 1: Well, there's an old Henry which is old Henry.

Speaker 2: it is.
Speaker 1: Who was Cat named after that? One of the members
Speaker 1: of Cats?

Speaker 1: I didn't realize this until I pull the stories from
Speaker 1: this day in history. It was today June tenth, nineteen
Speaker 1: seventy seven, that James Earl Ray escaped with six others
Speaker 1: from Brushy Mountain State Prison. Yeah, in Tennessee. I didn't
Speaker 1: know the escape.
Speaker 2: He escaped and was captured in Paris.
Speaker 1: He was captured on June thirteenth, nineteen seventies in France.
Speaker 1: I doubt it because he was in France. It was
Speaker 1: three days later.
Speaker 2: He said something about a flagpole and underpants, and he
Speaker 2: wanted to find out the old saying, let's see your underpants.

Speaker 1: had pulled it. It was today. In nineteen eighty five, Herschel,
Speaker 1: Walker of the New York Generals broke the two thousand
Speaker 1: yard mark and rushing. That's that whole USFL.
