HIGHLIGHT 30 MINS: The Woody Show June 5th 2025

What's the dune to the graphic nature of this program?

Listener discretion? Is it lies.

The Woody Show?

This is the Woody Show. Insensitivity Training class is now in session. A good morning, everybody, morning Woody. It is Thursday. It's June the fifth, twenty twenty five. Hello and welcome. We are the Woody Show. I'm Moddy. That's Greg Gory, Hi, wood Menace, good morning, Good morning, Woody, Gina gram Good morning. The sea Mass is here. We've got Sammy Morgan is here, our associate producer who's also taken your calls, Von our video producer. He is here and on the job today.

Yeah, but like brain injuries are wild man happens to people.

Yeah, probably relearn it pretty easily.

That sucks.

So you spend your whole life learning something that's just gone.

Is is English a difficult language to learn? I would say yes, Chinese is really hard to learn.

But we have a lot of exceptions to the rules. So you think you're learning everything and it's like, but that's not right, and that's not right. So from what I hear, it's hard because we have so many exceptions to the rules.

But there's that in every language, right, I don't know, I would think, So, how's that Japanese coming? You were supposed to be learning Japanese?

It's coming on quite well. In fact, you could say it's bueno.

No, But you had said like two years ago, year and a half, okay, Well, seabasst hat said all he goes by the end of the year, I will be fluent in Japanese, and that was his goal. Typically when he has a project like that, he's pretty good about. So are you just finding it difficult? I just don't.

But I don't spend a lot of time on it. It's in my rotation, so I have like, let's say twelve or fifteen books in my audible. Not a sponsor, but could be that on rotation and the Japanese books are in that rotation. But like, I'll maybe listen to a chapter a week, so it's not like I've got a lot of stuff. You know, why so many books at one time because you know, like, well, some of them are forty five hours long, so you don't exactly ex plow you want to binge it.

I know, but like, you know, fifteen seems to be like how do you do? Here's how you keep up? Because if you're so many different things, you listen to one thing, God knows when you get back around to the you know, number one out of.

Fifteen, Well, the reason why is because you like, my plan is two books a month, and that's about how fast I'm getting through them because like, yeah, like I said, some of them are forty five hours long. And if you're listening to you know, you're listen to him in the gym and on in traveling, on flights and stuff.

Yeah, do you know who's crushing allegedly Randy p No. I've heard him speak it. He used to work on the show.

He used to work on this show.

Yeah, but he actually takes classes here.

Yeah, and what is he trying to? Yeah, what is he trying to? Like, what's the purpose. He's just doing it just to do it, just to do it.

Maybe there's like is he bend it motive? Not that I know of, that's right, But he does wants to go to Japan. I think maybe next year. Cool.

So here are the toughest languages according to Rosetta's Stone. And they Chinese, and they take it by how long it takes on average for people to learn in weeks. So hardest languages they call these category four at least eighty weeks. Yes, Chinese, both Chinese, Cantonese and.

Manner level nine thousand Arabic because that's.

Again mahaba, fully different alphabet. I mean, I guess there's some Arabic words we use, but not many. Japanese is in there as well as Korean. Those are your five or four hardest languages to learn.

You know what?

The language I really hate And I realized that when we were flying back from Vancouver. French, and it's very People say it's a beautiful language. I don't find it to I don't find it to be beautiful I don't know, it's kind of grating to me. Maybe because it's to me, I get some word association away. It's it's accent association. I feel like it's smug or douchey oh see. I think it's an attractive language to hear, but I think it's wimpy.

Also French, the accent is different than French, and you might not like the French Canadian accent.

Chinese is just gross to listen to, Like it's just hard, it's harsh. Yeah, and why is everybody yelling yeah loud?

They say that well, and it's not like it has to do with the consonants of what you use, Like Germanic opera is traditionally known as being very awful and harsh because it's a lot.

Of k's and h's, you know.

Well, it's compared to French or Italian, which is more lyrical.

And yeah, yeah, I mean the the only phrase I learned in Chinese and I guess it's Mandarin, is I love you. And you have to have like a different physiology to pronounce words like oin a what is it o A like kind of like kind of like no like think of it as like n g u h like, no, it's so difficult.

No, thank you, I bet you.

You know if I'm sure we sound as silly as like the if you think of a Christmas story the whole far because they don't have l's like we do, that is what they are. I had a Japanese music teacher who would he would make fun of himself for doing that.

I forgot to make a joke with that kind of Well, it was cool back in the Christmas.

Story, right, Yeah, sixteen candles exactly again, it was hilarious about nineteen eighty nine.

And I don't like it, but it just has to do it again. They don't they don't grow up.

They don't grow up learning language and has those sounds, just like we don't grow up learning Yeah the Hebrew.

Yeah, eight seven seven forty four. Woody sent us a text over to two nine eight seven. You made it and just in time, and we are into another new hour insensitivity trading for a politically correct world. It is Thursday, Morgan's pre Friday. Yeah, it's June the fifth, twenty twenty five. My name is whatody does? Greg Gordon h Menace is here? What is that jourage? You get to find us and follow us on social media. At the Woodie Show, do that. Gina grad is here, Sea Bass is here? Ever got

You don't feel forty eight.

I don't feel forty eight. Yeah. Yeah.

There was something that popped up my feet last night and it showed like a clip of eminem Stand and I said, this song came out twenty five years ago, and I remember when I first heard that song. I was at the radio station with my friend and we like play that five times in a row. It's a clear memory. I'm like, that was twenty four years ago.

Of them is a grandfather, Yeah for real, you know, talking about like Haley and all those songs back then about his little daughter Haley. Yeah, and now she's a mom.

Yeah what even when you have random memories for being a kid and picturing your parents in those memories and they were way younger than we are now.

Yeah yeah, that's so weird core memory. For whatever reason, I don't know why it was so burned into my brain. Is when we had a fortieth birthday party for my stepfather and it was all over the hill theme.

Yeah way, yeah, that was a big yeah, you know.

Like it was over next stop was it God's Waiting Room, Right.

But people were so much older back then, they were ye.

The top ten modern rock alternative songs from nineteen ninety five, number ten was elastica Connection, great song, so good. Bush had a big year that year because that's when sixteen Stone came out, So come Down was the number nine song of the year. Alanis Moore set You Ought to Know is number eight for the year. Probably that's also when that album came out, Jagged Little Pill.

I love that album.

Overchair Tomorrow at number seven. Number six was Oasis Live Forever. The number five song of nineteen ninety five for modern rock and alternative was Bush Everything Zen. Another one from sixteen Stone. Oh Yeah, Green Day when I Come Around was number four that year. Number three was Goo Goo Doll's Name Better than Ezra Good was the number two song of the year. The number one modern rock alternative song for nineteen ninety five was Live Lightning Crashes.

Oh that was a good one.

Yeah, underrated, fun song about abortion, I know it was. That's cool. Listen to.

The flow gross whoa, that's very graphic.

Yeah, that's the lyrics, that's how it goes.

How the song goes I think I heard that one back again.

Yeah, Bush was like so good, I mean still good, still good, but so good live. Why don't you think they never got to like a like a Green Day type level, like.

Like never ever went to men.

Like Arena Band to this day.

Green Day went through a big period of time where man, they couldn't they they couldn't get it hit, they couldn't get arrested, you know. And then all of a sudden, American Idiot came out that kind of put them back on the map.

But they were they Yeah, they started opening for Blake.

They were in Bush territory for a long time there, and then American Idiot came out and that changed thing because it was like American Idiot Boulevard and Broken Dreams Wake Me Up when September and you know, I think the biggest thing they.

Had after a Sound of Winter, I think.

Yeah, but I mean even that wasn't like that was not nearly as big as some of the other songs. But the the one that you know, kind of helped them out to also in the nineties was when they were featured in the Seinfeld finale.

Oh I forgot about that this time.

Of your life you know, so there was that and when it comes to Atlantis, is it just me? But I think YadA Know is her worst song.

It's not the best, and it's definitely not the best.

A million amazingly wonderful songs and that one is so it doesn't It doesn't mean there's only a certain number that could be really great.

That's not one of them. Head that's the most song.

It was so groundbreaking at the time.

I love that song. That's not her best. That whole album is great.

The whole album is amazing.

And that's the one that everybody gravitates. I'm not an album guy per se. Yeah, you know, I don't look at it as, you know, a complete work of art. I like this song. I like this song. Um now it's cool. I mean, you can get any song you want, yeah, the moment you want it, because it's going back. Let's

But remember if you got Catcetera CD and you waited long enough, there could be a secret song at the end that was always the best.

Yes, she did so.

People thirty years old or older were asked, what's a sound from your childhood that younger generations will never hear? And I have a couple of these songs. We'll see how many you get, right, Morgan, I'm really curious about you. People in this room I think will get well. Yeah, I think even Samuel.

Get Wait, these are sounds or songs.

These are gonna be sounds, Okay, So I'll give you some other ones, like the sound of a cassette rewinding faster and faster and faster into that final thump, you know when you go to a place and the host says smoking or non smoking. Wait, hold on. If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again. If you need help, hang up and dial your operator.

And you would know that cassette sound.

Yeah, I know cassettes. I played with cassettes as a kid.

Oh like relics, the way I used to play with.

You know, my grandmother had a bunch of eight tracks, right, exactly what does this do? Or you know Vinyl?

Yeah right, I didn't know what I was doing when I was playing with them, though.

That staticky sound from those stupid gray computer speakers, like when a call was coming in. Oh yeah, remember that? Yep, the sound of a quarter dropping into like an arcade game. I love that sound, or into like a payphone. Yeah. The squeak of the crank window on the car. Yeah, the metal seat belt buckles, you remember that, Morgan?

Oh yeah, I had a well, not my truck. My dad had a truck where you had to manually roll up and down the windows.

There's still cars out there like that, guys.

All right, so let's let's see Morgan. Yeah, we'll start with you. I'm gonna play all five. I have five clips here. We'll play five clips and then, uh, we'll see how many everybody gets, right, Okay, all right, So here's here's clip number one. What is this sound? It's the easiest one. Oh all right, so we're starting off real easy, all right? That throw back sound number one? Number two? What does this sound? Oh?

I know what that is?

Can you do that again.

Mm hmm.

Sorry, don't know. You don't know that one? Great? What about this one? Okay, that's the pain in my existence?

Hmhmm.

Number four what easy? Yep, really easy?

M hm.

Oh oh I got it. Yes.

And then here I'll give you one more. Number five? What does that sound?

All right?

So those are the anybody need a refresher on any of them?

I need four again?

Number four again? All right? Can you do two again? Sure? Thank you?

Can you do three again?

Oh? Sure?

Okay, just to make everyone listen to it? Can you do one again?

One? Oh?

Yeah?

All right. So we're gonna ask you for your guesses. First, what is this first sound? What does that sound?

That?

First one's dial up Internet?

That is dial up a dial up modem connecting nice.

And then when you did that, the phones didn't work in the house.

Correct?

Are you picked up the phone kicked yourself off?

Yeah? Exactly. So you're like damn it, because it was usually everything was very slow, you know, and then you'd be online and all the sudden things would be kind of frozen up and you're like, damn it. Calls coming in or like if you call waiting a call come in? And I would ruin it or somebody in the house would pick the phone up. Yes, damn it, you have to reconnect. Sucked.

This is when you took the physical phone and put it on the face. No, I do remember that. That's I mean.

The phone on top of it.

I don't know that.

Yeah, accorded phone landline. No. No, this was just like the phone line plugged into the back of the motive modem plugged into the back of the computer.

Did you In the seventies, I was babysitting for these kids and the dad had it, and I thought, what the hell is that?

And he showed me, you take the phone put it on top, all right, number two? What sound is this? Morgan?

Oh, this is a stretch? Is that like clocking in in the old timy days when you'd.

Have a paper time clock. That's a that's a good guess. I think I finally got it. Is Is it the credit card? Yes? Machine? Wow. In the day when used to pay with a credit card, you give them the

Always hated those things. I'm like, why am I giving people a copy of my credit card?

I was a choice to think.

Of home alone too.

After that's like, whoa, it worked? Throwback sound number three? What is this? Morgan? What does that sound?

I'm struggling with this one. In number five, they sound very similar to me.

They do sound similar similar.

Is this like a receipt printing at Macy's or something printing?

Yes, that is a dot matrix printer.

Never heard of that.

The printers the paper that you would feed into the into the printer had holes on the side.

Oh yeah, but how much did you rip those?

I hated it because as a perfectionist, and Greg will agree, like you needed to be clean, yeah, and so like sometimes there'd be just a little tiny piece that would hang on or it would like start tearing into the actual edge of the paper especially. It was something you had to turn in, like something for work or something for school.

But if you got really bored, wouldn't you take all those off and make like a long chain out of them once in.

A blue moon, But god forbid, it got crooked once. That's how we got our news at this radio station I worked for on the Apia, and it would just print out at random at random times.

I can tell you that this is a good guess on the text for what's that throwback sound? Number four? He said? Is that Greg putting sea bass in the trunk of his classic?

Yo?

Yes? Greg, all right, what is number four? Morgan?

That's got to be AOL or AIM messenger?

Right, Yes, I know, my favorite.

So, like when you'd have like instant messenger, and let's say Greg signed on with his modem that he had the landline phone with the receiver upside down on him, and he would log in. As soon as Greg would log in, it would be like Greg sixty nine. So it would make that sound to let you know that Greg has just arrived, because that's a door squeak opening, Like we're okay.

I know everyone got the AOL CDs in the mail, but was AOL too rich for our blood because I don't think.

We had that.

No, yeah, all right, so that's everybody want it. And then when somebody would leave and sign off or somebody else picked up the phone in the house, like and you you log off or you would the person would be leaving the AOL instant Messenger. It was that door slam, so joining and then the door slam.

I have no idea, it's the instant messenger.

Yeah, okay, Well, if you had AOL, you had everybody on AOL had the messenger, right, and then AOL Instant Messenger was like its own standalone thing.

Yeah.

And then it became part of the T mobile Sidekick, which was my favorite phone. I loved AIM. And it was way quicker than text messaging too.

Yeah, and you could have little away messages.

Yeah. And then here last one, number five, which you said was very similar to number three. This one's a little bit yeah sounds. I remember that. I remember the sound because I'm like, oh, oh, I hope this thing is okay. That is the sound, and guesses Morgan.

No, I wrote down scanner, but that's.

Scanner, all right, menace. I just put like a printer, Okay, ye, not a printer. That's a floppy disc spinning. Remember how you put the disk in there and all of a sudden the disk drive would start making it ring, like, oh my god, is this thing like gonna die?

Spin?

Even the hard drives back in the they would physically move. Now you have what you see on the thing, Greg. I'm sure when you're looking at computers, it will say solid state drive. And because there's no moving part, nothing moves. It used to spin. And so that's why if you like dropped the computer or you dropped the you can really screw it up and you'd lose everything on that hard drive. But like the floppy discs, there were two kind. There were the floppy floppies and then there were those

But when I got to college, we had zip drives and jazz drives, and I remember the jazz drives. Zip drive had a hundred megabytes on it, and then when you're really balling, you had a jazz drive and it had one gig or like.

Good point on the text. Somebody said they were in an auto parts store the other day and they were still using the dot matrix for now, I think hearts departments are the only ones using that.

Still amazing.

Yeah, So just some of the throwback sounds for you like that eight seven four sent us a text over to two to ninety seven. Just a reminder where we started this conversation. Nineteen ninety five is thirty years ago. And what about the trending news headlines this morning? Gena grad.

Yes, well, the family of the Egyptian guy who's facing federal hate crime and murder charges after going full maniac with molotov cocktails and a makeshift flamethrower at a pro Israel Evant and Boulder.

He won't be getting deported just yet.

A federal judge in Colorado ruled yesterday that his wife and five kids can't be kicked out of the country while legal proceedings are still happening. His family was scooped up by immigration agents this week, but their lawyers say that they had no part in the attack. None of them have been charged, and the husband himself told investigators he planned the whole thing by himself, didn't.

You tell I'm sure it's not like a family planning thing.

Okay, family meeting, right?

Yeah, hey, yeah, so what are we going to do? How am I going to pull this off? Oh? You know what, Dad, you should dress like the gardener, Yeah, exactly, yeah and hot out in wait try right blended.

In st gasoline.

Yeah. I mean, if they didn't do anything, then they didn't do anything. And if they're here and their visas are not expired and yeah, yeah, yeah, just because like everybody'd be in jail. Everybody's got a sheep in the family, got like a dickhead family member relatives well.

Homeland Security is digging through the family's immigration records and using the case to launch a broader crackdown on people who overstay their visas. The Diddy case just got even darker, which is pretty hard to do at this point. In the latest round of his trial, a close friend of his ex girlfriend, Cazzi Ventura, took the stand testified about lots of violent incidents. She claimed that back in twenty sixteen, did he threw a knife at Cassie during a fight

I could kill you. Wow, it's totally normal. All these claims line up with what Casey's he has.

He's been saying everybody, She's been saying it for a while now, that she dealt with years of abuse from this guy.

So bottom line, even if like half of this stuff is true, he.

Seems pretty screwed and we will stay on top of that. The manhunt continues for that a hole in Washington State who killed his three daughters, That guy, Travis Decker. He had the girls for a routine visitation, but when he didn't bring him back, mom called the cops. Days later, the bodies of all three girls were found. Travis's abandoned truck was found nearby, and apparently he was considered homeless, so maybe you know, perhaps living in the truck, staying

Authority say Decker knows.

A lot about wilderness survival and could be able to spend weeks in the wilderness without any equipment. But if you do see him, FBI and US marshals do not want you going up to this guy. They say, just report it immediately.

There's a Netflix documentary about a similar story. You remember the guy that said his wife I had gone missing, and then I do turns.

Out and killed her. Her name was.

I believe about these guys. They can live in the wilderness forever. Then you find him dead out there. They always hype it up.

Yep uh.

Did you guys, please tell me you saw the video for this a wild elephant in Thailand. I wandered into a grocery store near Kao Yai National Park.

That one I saw the zebra that was on the run.

Oh, I saw that one too. The elephant one was.

Hot oherey helped himself to some snacks, but I was.

Like, am I looking at the what do you show feet? Or is this actual elephant?

It's very hungry.

This thirty year old guy known as plyb young Leck. He strolled in, grabbed nine bags of sweet rice crackers, a sandwich, bananas, just calmly laughed, helped himself. He just left behind some muddy footprints and a little ceiling damage. Because you know elephant. And while this elephant is known in the area for sneaking to houses.

For food, this is his first visit to the shops.

He's going to be back, yes, sure, yeah, now he knows where to get just the still shot alone.

His back is just scraping the ceiling.

How did he fit in the door? He's it's an elephant.

So I don't even know what's going on Thailand. I definitely want to go check it out, and because I've heard really great things. But there's like certain areas where just wild stuff like this happens. There's one area of Thailand where it's just completely taken over by.

Monkeys in their pickpockets.

It's like a monkey city. Yeah, so many people have like abandoned this city and the monkeys I've just taken it over.

Look it up. It's that sounds like crazy there.

And in India, like you will literally take stuff out of your pockets and run like they're a little fun exactly. And it looks like Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson.

Are officially over. The issue that broke him up is babies.

Dakota was apparently down to start a family, but Chris already has two kids with Gwyne's power was like, I kind of did this.

Good for him for not caving.

Yeah, my second.

Okay, there are two examples. So my one buddy, he has adult children. Yeah, he married somebody who's significantly younger. She wanted to have kids. They had a kid, and the daughter's wonderful. Yeah, and then she was pushing for a second kid, and they drew the line said, you know what, we're good on the one. But it's weird because he's got kids who are in their thirties and now he's got a five year old, right, so that's

Back from that, the laundromat.

You're not going. You're never going back to living in a place where you have to go down to the basement of the building or to yeah, a laundry mat somewhere. You just you just don't go back going to a king sized bed. You don't go back.

Oh never, God no.

But now Chris is single, and he's like our legal best friend. Who do we hook him up with?

Nobody? Leave him alone? Yeah, break just leave him alone. Well, he's got no problems. He's a big, famous musician, he's loaded. He's gonna be so nice, one of the world's nicest people.

You interested smart, I mean, he's cute.

Okay, Well, maybe maybe we'll think about it. Well, they haven't comments, yea, they haven't commented. Publicly.

But there have been rumors about the breakup before, but they say, you know, this time, it's legit, it's permanent. Other breakup news, by the way, Olympic swimmer and the man responsible for ju Ryan Lockedi getting divorced.

Sammy.

There you go, Sammy.

No, Ryan Locke, not my time. Chris Martin over him.

He and his wife had been married for seven years. They have three kids.

She filed back in March, but just publicly announced the split yesterday. So get in line, ladies, some single bachelor's ready for you.

And that's what's going on.

Reddy all right, thank you very much, Gina grat got it more what he shows next? Hang on, I think what.

You're talking about that sensation. I don't think the diaper makes it so that you want to pee.

I think it. I think there may be some kind of

Effect where you know you've gone and I can feel the warmth kind of like headed down toward my test
