I do want to what say that Danny has some breaking country music news, and he'll give you more at eight thirty. But give us the just, the if, just of it,

the what of it, the reef gist of it. Yeah, right, okay, so country Music's darling. The guy that got We thought that was going to be canceled several years years back. For the guy like to just shout out the inward Yeah. The guy that gets home late at night after drinking with his friends and calls his buddy the inward and it's caught on a ring doorbell camera. Morgan Wallin you know hemember and you thought all this

guy's done and his ends up being the number one star. He had a little incident last night at a Nashville bar and ended up spending the night in the can. Whoa, And I don't mean the fun can. I mean the one that the one that they put special bracelets on you to take you into. I'll give you major details on that. At eight thirty. Morgan Wallen arrested the Clink exclusively here on ninety seven to one. Yeah, you're home of Breaking Country News. I wonder if he had a lot of allies

and they in the clan, probably honestly Nashville. I don't know my baby a little. Who knows? Okay, he probably was able to use his power dynamic in prison to get what he needed, although it was just jail or was it the can, I don't really know. Might have come out a member of the area brother Tattoo for protection. He's got a whole new

album based on that story and how he got there. It's hilarious, okay, and Danny's got you At eight thirty tease so real quick before the updated weather forecast and traffic and stuff for the eclipse, and a lot of eclipse stuff. Today. I will tell you that I did something on Saturday, and Mike I do is my witness. Yeah, Mike uh again invited to go to a Final four party, just watch party, a gathering of sorts. It's just an excuse to get together. Yeah, I mean, no

one really cared. I didn't care. Unless you have betting interest or you're an alumni of do you really care about much about the Final four basketballs games. I wouldn't go to a party just for that, not a lick. No, I mean I was just on a text chain though that Mike was on and there's fifteen numbers on it, and I didn't recognize any of the other fifteen numbers. In fact, I even texted Mike. I was like, is this bring the girl thing or like? Because I didn't know,

and one of you guys made the great joke, thank you. Yeah, well we'll have some yarn. I did. Yeah, yeah, bring girls, we'll have yarn, which is just terrible. It's just terrible, and we don't laugh at But that's why it's funny, because it's so wrong, because we know I know you'd never say that. No, I would never say that. I only text that. It's called irony, it's called satire.

Yes, we're watching n C State Purdue the first game, and then well, I mean the men are and the ladies are in the corner making Canadian yard art. I think honestly, Christina and Roxy were the only chicks there. And then you guys all leave with badass final four sweaters. Yeah, twenty twenty four Final four? Wow is it really good? When did you guys learn how to do this? We don't know. They just walked in like zombies, just toward the yard arning. Aren't women just kind of

born with that skill? Yes, just hand of a ball of yarn and they they black out and the sweater so I was probably yarning two Gin and Tonics. Deep. Boy, he walked in right hand a full bottle of gin, doing the shake like winking at us. Look, I've seen how he claims he's gonna go all nine innings and gets pulled in the middle of the second after giving up Yeah, four home runs. Manager Roxy out there, she doesn't even she didn't even. Mike maddocksim and pat him on the

shoulder. Don't want to hear it. This is not a discussion. No, why contact you're out of the game. Does happened a lot? Yeh? Hey Ginny, Oh well, this gem is botanicals without borders. Danny. You should know that because we started getting the head spinning a little bit. So does n C State, Purdue and Cash had a little uh fun. We had a little fun action on it, but nothing crazy. And then I had an idea right before halftime of game one. I said,

what if we juiced up game two? And my original idea was every TV time out will do squares like for a football game, but every TV timeout there's a payout, and then you know everybuddy Joel was quick to that'd be

bad because you never know the TV time that's are gona happen. It's okay, what if we did square so normally you'd do for football at the end of the first quarter, squares for bass skip ball is better because there's no bad numbers in every sixteen twelve eight four halftime and then again in the second half sixteen minutes, twelve minutes left, eight minutes left, four minutes left, end of game ten payouts, ten payouts. Danny. Now, this

might not sound exciting to you now. But if you are one of those and said, you know what, I'll bund me five squares, I don't care, you would have been on the edge of your seat to the point of I can't believe he's still in the chair. He's barely on the seat. Yeah, he's that far so he ha isn't even touched in the seat anymore. He's just in a ninety degree squat position. Now, he saved the Final four four. We needed a hero, and we didn't know we

needed a hero, and he created something so beautiful. He didn't know the hero would look like this. No, this figure soaked in gin. Oh, it's soaked in gin. Who it was excellent. You've only heard a square I've only done squares for football, and this guy created the most beautiful square game for a Final four game. It was so fun. He's the master of games. I know he is. It's official. If it wasn't, I know why this comes as a surprise to anyone. Well, the

thing is, it's all good fun. But then a wrinkle gets thrown in. Now Alabama Yukon was It wasn't as close as it could have been. Siroy goes ahead and drops Oppenheimer bomb on this thing. First of all, clearly everyone kind of who didn't make sense, you know, and then very reluctant. But then the money starts exchanging the dry race marker on the very

expensive mirror, and this square start feeling it. Five dollars a square, one hundred squares, one hundred square, five hundred dollars in the pot, so fifty dollars every break. Probably four minutes of the game, everyone's staring like it's about to hit sixteen minutes. Normally you wouldn't even notice a clock in a college basketball game hitting sixteen minutes or twelve minutes. But we are

all gathered eyes darting at the screen, up to the board. Yeah, numbers, numbers, Oh my god, free throw you know, action galore. Fifty bucks is on the laws. More smaller payouts better than fewer larger payouts. And what this created. Everyone involved, the women who were there, were involved. Everyone was there, and they go to commercial. You come back about all right, two minutes and thirty seconds to the next and

he gets to twelve, and then you check the score. But then Mike goes, well, what if we took all of the funds, if this game goes to overtime, we put the money back in Winner Take All. He dropped a nuclear bomb on it. And it's actually been called the sroy Action Freedom for Everyone plan. Yeah, I gave otherwise known as the Saffop. I gave it a good name, like the government, so everyone would vote for it. The Saffup. Yeah, the saffup. The s roy

Action Freedom for Everyone just rolls off the tongue. Huh, the saffop. When you threw the saff up in there and that game was closed for a bit, Yes, you're sitting there going, oh my god, the probability this game going to overtime keeps rising. The heat is rising, okay, yeah, yeah, and that you could hear, and you could hear everyone's heart beating, because if you want two squares, you already won one hundred

bucks. But under the original Saffup, that money, if it goes over time, disappears out of your pocket back into the main pot for the ultimate winner, the Ultimate It's kind of like the power ball. Can you imagine this level of excitement that we're describing. Yeah, I can no, Seriously, dude, I know when you when you add juice to any event, it creates uh, a heightened level of interest, and he was running around his living room for the Daytona five hundred. Yeah, because he had had

action. They had juice. There was action. Yeah, I mean this is different. This is more often there's no disconnect. You're gathered around. Yeah, whereas most squares, if you had have done that would have been we'll do one halftime into game no, no, no five and five, you're on. There are people who never even got mentioned. The girls were into it. The floor was littered with half finished scarves by the end of the night. Yeah, we all have cut off sweaters that were wearing work

today. Your cashmir tank top looks incredible. Mine's got a moon on it and the sun and the sun's coming towards half done. The sun's eyeing the moon. So yeah, that's just what I wanted to say. It was really fun and if yeah, I mean, no one's having a final Championship game party tonight. I don't think we are squares work. I told Cash though, I said, I don't know if we'll ever get together again in our lifetime, but if we do, I don't know if I'll ever be

invited back. But if I was to be invited back. Think about a MAVs two thirty playoff game start, and maybe you want to have some friends over or something. Yeah, Squake could go six first quarter, six halftime, six third quarter, and then six end of game eight payouts. You can do it a very similar fation, and then you incorporate the FAPTA rule or whatever. Desroy action not the FAPTA rules. That's that's something, all right, gather around everybody to pay up boys. Yeah, dude, I

don't know what you're talking about. The FUPA rule, that's your problem. That sounds fun. It was fun. That's fun. Squares worked for basketball and Kat Proud at this weekend. It would have been nice to be able to watch anything this weekend. Oh no, Oh, Danny didn't have internet? Still don't. I'll tell you something. Boy. When A and t oh, don't go after him by name has an internet outage, not too late. It doesn't last for an hour, eh, doesn't even last for

two. No, sometimes it'll last the entire weekend and still be lasting when you wake up on Monday morning saying it happened to any Internet. And my favorite thing about them is when you check back. This is my favorite part of yesterday. Oh boy, So I woke up at seven in the morning yesterday it was out, and you're like, okay, then I'm wondering,

Oh, it's maybe a local thing. Maybe I need to replug in something immediately dismiss any of that, and I go straight to the app, get on cellular and find out there is an out a junior area and it's my neighborhood. I saw other people that I knew in the neighborhood that were tweeting about it. I think our buddy Davey tweeted, oh, that was the greatest, most exciting MAVs game I've ever streamed on my phone. So anyway, they keep saying, oh, it's going to be resolved by five,

and you know, around four thirty rolls around and it's still out. So I look for an update. Oh it's going to be seven. Oh cool. It kept pushing it and pushing it and pushing it until ten pm. And by the time I went to bed at around ten thirty, I looked on the app. They don't even give you a time when they assume it's going to be finished. Same this morning, Yep, your internet's out. They just have the shrugging guy emoji pretty much, which is my least favorite

emoji of all time. So I don't know. Maybe it's it, maybe it's working, maybe it's not. But my god, this happens a lot too, a lot you've heard me. I know, Like I said, I guess maybe I'm in a good lucky neighborhood or what. I think it's the neighborhood. I feel bad. I think it is because everyone's bitched about every company. So I don't know if it's that like I think it's like every it's gotta be. I had problems when I lived in the village a

lot. I'm not sure who I was using at the time, but there was a lot of problems. And now I don't really have that. Oh, knock on wood, knock on wood, don't have that many problems. And I just wonder if it's like okay. Now I'm also near now, I'm near a fire department, so there's often I mean, for power that matters. I don't know if that matters. There's a wireless company senior center a couple of blocks east to me. I think I'm like, okay,

So I don't know. It's incredible to me that twenty years ago The Internet was by and large thought of something as made maybe more like thirty years ago. I was thought of something as like a luxury. And now it's just become so essential. It's gone for a couple hours to our daily lives. I mean everything runs on it. Everything is bitch. I will turn into a bitch. I gonna be a fast internet. Or you want to her? Did you not pay the bill? Oh? It's my bill. It's

just looking for someone to take something out on, would you do? That's called misplaced anger, Kevin, I know, and I'm working on it. I'm actually very happy. You have triggers. Don't you so hungover? Actually not, I'm hungover from Saturday. Okay. So here's what's happening twelve twenty three. We know this moon begins to cover the sun today all right from the left or right right shot. I think that's gonna be below it bottom, it's bottom. I think it will be right, I really do.

But you'd have to be live at Clyde Worne Park with the speakeasy and the bit and skin shy other day to see for sure. Four is your totality. When it will go dark, crickets will stop chirping. Okay, animals will get confused and go where my circadian rhythms are off? Here? What's going on? Your dog's might apple weird? A lot going on there. It will end at three oh two. Now, get this, four hundred times smaller than the sun is the moon four hundred times smaller than the Sun,

no way, So it's going to bleed across us there. And then the moon also though, is four hundred times closer to the Earth than the Sun is. So that's why when you look at the image, this is a cinematography wonder, traffic jams are expected, big delays. Text dot is even saying they're comparing this to if seven large football games ended all at once. That's what they're expecting in downtown Dallas, seven Cowboys at once. Now, I don't know if that's true or not. I don't even know how

you could make that up. I don't know why down Why is downtown Dallas? The EPISO Hunter just was Clyde Warren Park, Maybe, like I just don't understand. There could be just people who want to take like the picture of it with Reunion Tower and the I don't know, it's because people that aren't from here. They don't know where to go. Yeah, so they all just go to the central you know location, I guess central location. I guess it would be Clyde Clyde Warren. As far as with the biggest,

I mean, where would you go in New York Central Park? Probably they're doing there's probably a great viewing vantage point in Brooklyn or the Bronx. Yeah, I would go to Central Park absolutely. Yeah, And no, you don't know. They are expected they're gonna have rolling closures. Which tried it with rolling blackouts a few years ago and that didn't go great. But they're gonna try rolling closures. If you're getting out of the downtown area,

you're gonna be fine. They're leaving all that open to exit. But if you're trying to get into downtown area, beginning at one pm, they're beginning rolling closures. They're gonna start blocking off exits. So if you are going down there to see the bin and Skin show, hey, don't mean your car from one to two. The big thing happens at one forty, so you know, be set and ready. So many people stuck in their cars for this, yes, yes, with kids yelling I can't see it and

then hanging out the window their glasses on. So many people are going to be blind tomorrow too. I didn't get certified goggles. Uh. Dallas officials have encouraged residents to stay off city roads during the eclipse and influx of visitors expected. And then let's add in there's a possibility tonight a tornadoes, hail and flooding. Yes, we get big weather the next two days. Well, weather coming tonight. So whether that's your latest on that. In terms

of visibility, clouds, not perfect, but looking okay right now. They do think there will be some clouds. Look, they were expecting it there to be like thirty percent visibility. It's now up to like fifty percent visibility. Okay, So you think that's talkback. Guy's still gonna whoop your ass. If one cloud covers that son. I hope he tries, because I've been lifting. It's his big day to really let you have it at tennant. Yeah, he wants my ass. That's what he says every time.

I swear to God, Kevin, if one cloud covers that song, your ass is mine. It's always on my ass. Yeah, he is gonna he's gonna take your ass, get away from my ass. We'll eat my butt. I hope he, I hope he calls in today a final threat to final. He'll try countdown, but coming up next. We had daytime MAVs basketball, We had late night Stars hockey, and we had middle of the evening Rangers baseball. We had microphones attached to players, We had fantastic

finishes, and we have stuff that happened in our sleep. Sports at seven is loaded next to ninety seven. Won the free
