Transcript

Speaker 1

I'm so glad that most of you were out yesterday for a national holiday because the show that we did yesterday was not Hall of Fame worthy.

Speaker 2

Oh and I don't think this one's going to be much better.

Speaker 1

Well, I will say this tick higher, just to tick higher.

Speaker 2

We are we're dragging ass still and mentally even not that we were mental giants to begin with, but we're not all there. We're not back to where we were. And it hit me on the way home yesterday. We had Kenny Wayne Shephard on that was that was one good part of the show.

Speaker 1

Was one that was the only.

Speaker 2

Good part of the show.

Speaker 1

Yeah, But.

Speaker 2

Because I was not thinking straight, I meant to add because Mel Gibson, his daughter married Kenny Wayne Shepherd and they've been married for years and years and years. So I wanted to ask him about Mel Gibson as a father in law, I bet And I wanted to say, Hey, do you guys ever go and see your father in law Mel Gibson and take the grandkids? And when you leave and go home, does he ever call you and go could be by my family?

Speaker 1

I bet you that's an intense father in law.

Speaker 2

Can you imagine? No, I couldn't either.

Speaker 1

Oh boy, I didn't know that. Thanks for dropping the ball on that, because that had been a great addition to the interview. The interview was great.

Speaker 2

Yeah, no, you know that was like my I was getting ready to ask and you did that. Let me ask one more question, and I forgot to ask it.

Speaker 1

Oh I'm sorry. It was my fault. Well is that? Did you see how he did that? Just it's he forgot, But it's my fault. He forgot, he's deflecting response.

Speaker 2

No listen, no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no listen. When journalists, we never ever point fingers when a misteak is made. But yes, it was your fault.

Speaker 1

When you point fingers in people, there's three fingers pointing back at you. There's stuff you tell your seven year old that you never repeat again. And remember when you pointed somebody.

Speaker 2

What's the THUMBM doing? Point at me? What's your thumb?

Speaker 1

Do? Wait a minute? Pointing?

Speaker 2

Okay, so you got.

Speaker 1

Two three, I got three pointing at me and you.

Speaker 2

Got two pointing me your thumb and your Yeah, I guess so.

Speaker 1

Right, all right, I don't know if either one of you all saw that darn plane crash last night. I don't know what's going on. It's the third plane crash in like three weeks. It's crazy.

Speaker 2

I don't think I'm going to Mexico this year. That didn't get this crap straight in out look.

Speaker 1

Obviously we're not aviators, but that thing seemed like it was coming out of the sky pretty quickly and it belly flopped onto the runway. It is an absolute miracle of God what happened yesterday on that tarmac. I mean it belly flopped, burst into flames, flipped over, and no one was injured. Like what the hell of a story wouldn't It's crazy?

Speaker 2

So what do you do? What's what's pro After you survived like that? Do you go straight to the airport bar?

Speaker 1

Yes, of course, I don't care if you're sober for twenty years, God say go get a drink.

Speaker 2

First thing you do is attorney.

Speaker 1

Didn't say that.

Speaker 2

The first thing you do is call an attorney.

Speaker 1

No, yeah, because you grab your neck right.

Speaker 2

And you call an attorney and then you go to the bar. And so they meet me the airport bar, neck and back. Oh yeah, you grab both of them.

Speaker 1

Thank you. But the people, the people that were getting that were still on the plane waiting to get off, because I mean I'd have been I'd have helped whoever couldn't get out, because I didn't even think about the weight of yourself because you were upside down. The guy that was talking said, we hit. We knew it was bad, and the next thing you know, you don't know because you're just upside down now and now the ceiling is

the floor. But the weight of your own body on the belt, like, that's not going to be easy to get unbuckled, right, so you got to deal with that. And he goes, once that happens.

Speaker 2

Well, wait a minute, no, wait, wait a minute, those seat belts you just pull that lever to the side that dislodges.

Speaker 1

Okay, I've never done it, so I'm going to assume it's a little difficult.

Speaker 2

Well, in airplane crash school, we had that at all, right, we did what we did. It was I had it after English and before mathematics, and we used to do that. And even in the eighties, those seat belts we could release.

Speaker 1

Uh, But the people that pulled their phones out and started to video, like, who are you keep your phone in your pocket and get your ass off the plane because it's on fire.

Speaker 2

Wes Henderson's made a post yesterday. Wes Henderson from True Story Bourbon He posted yesterday and go, hey, just so you know, if if I'm ever in a plane crash and that happens, and you're in front of me and you're videoing or getting your luggage out of the overhead, I'm running the blank over you.

Speaker 1

I agree with that, of course absolutely.

Speaker 3

I'll say this. I'm already afraid of flying as it is. I'n't been on a plane in at least fifteen years, and everything that's happened so far in twenty twenty five has not done anything to help coddle that.

Speaker 2

No, it's been all this has happened in like a span of what four weeks.

Speaker 1

Okay, the basic design of an airplane hasn't changed. Now, you can put as many computers on there as you want, right right, The basic design of thrust, the wings, the flaps, that is all the same concepts for the last eighty years. Like that, those engineering concepts have not changed. It goes still basic stuff.

Speaker 2

It goes right back to the very first one with Wilbur and Orville Bread and Backer with just the two wings. The design has not changed.

Speaker 1

They turned in their popcorn makers and do it. They did into an airplane.

Speaker 2

Well, they sold their popcorn business. Yeah, and then Orville bread Brocker got it back.

Speaker 1

But I don't discount your fear of that because you're just a smart person. You're like, well, this is basic stuff.

Speaker 3

Why put your life in God's hands if you will, because that's what you're doing. You have zero control once you go into the airport and give your bags away and go through TSA.

Speaker 1

No, that's true. No, that's true. You have, yes, but it's still a thousand times safer than getting the car and driving. It's still a thousand times true.

Speaker 3

But I've heard that a million times.

Speaker 2

Yeah, but when you look at the odds of how many planes have taken off daily annually and how many the amount of incidents, it's I mean, it's a miracle.

Speaker 1

Well the miracle was in the eighties. Let's just figure it out. Because those guys were drunk, coked up, Like how many I mean the eighties were party central. How many of these pilots and stewardesses or flight attendants.

Speaker 2

I wish And there was a time, there was a time where United Parcel Service would take their seven to twenty sevens. Yeah, and they would install seats in them and run them for commercial flight.

Speaker 1

Yeah yeah, yeah, that lasted very short period of time.

Speaker 2

But I got to tell you I never felt safer than I did when I flew on a UPS personnel flight. Yeah, because I worked at UPS. And let me tell you, if there's just one minor, one minor little thing, unload the hoe down plane, Let's get it to another one. They're second to none when it comes to prevent a maintenance.

Speaker 1

Let's go about with another disaster. And again, thoughts and prayers everybody on that plane. But I mean this, watch the video and go, that's a miracle. No one was killed, much less really injured. They were like, yeah, I sent a couple of people to the hospital, but nothing with serious, nothing but sprains and stuff. That's crazy, all right. So the second thing is these floodings. I don't know if you're following eastern Kentucky. So the temperatures are insane, and

fourteen deaths in Kentucky alone and swept away. You're watching video of these mudslides, and these whole little towns, these you know, and towns are like these streets. I just pull up and there's businesses on the street. The back half of it is just gone. It's crazy. This is the same area where twenty eighteen. Yeah, it's just six or seven years ago man was wiped out. Remember Caliperry was doing all those telethons and stuff. It's just like that wasn't too long ago. It's crazy, and.

Speaker 2

Six years I could promise you not all the damage has been repaired.

Speaker 1

Since you know, no host towns disappeared and they don't come back.

Speaker 2

I will say that I always take sixty four and get off of the third Street ramp. Yeah, and I did this morning. It was jam packed. And the reason was jam packed is they have where you can't take a rite now.

Speaker 1

Uh yeah, so you have to go straight.

Speaker 2

You have to go straight. So I'm wondering if they're expecting the floodwaters to keep creeping up.

Speaker 1

Yeah, just be patient out there if you're stuck in all that. And I get it. There was a wreck on Waterston Express Fighter around Thereckaridge Lane exit and then they shut down the tails will exit. It was crazy. So I think they're opening all that up now, So just be patient, and we're sorry that you're you're stuck in all that. Today's a big day for me.

Speaker 2

Oh did you get like a Catholic People's Award at the Catholic People's Society last night.

Speaker 1

It was a good time.

Speaker 2

It looked fun.

Speaker 1

You're such a jerk.

Speaker 2

Everybody in suits and you know it looked it look look look great.

Speaker 1

It was a fifteen priests there.

Speaker 2

Oh you didn't mention that. Oh well, now it's a party.

Speaker 1

The party with the priests. Yeah, today, do you cuss around the priest? The priest costs more than I depends on what Brandy, sir. I love all my priests. They're awesome. Okay, So I'm today, I get my I get my toto aquala aquala for toilet, my toilet.

The bowl is shaped differently to where it's a vortex flush, so you don't get that under where you know how you got clean underneath their No, it's gone. It's a vortex gone.

Speaker 1

I believe Wagner High School because that's my neighborhood. There were the oh the breaking something I do know everything breaking was in the title.

Speaker 2

Now what is this? Is this some kind of nineties nails?

Speaker 1

What is this?

Speaker 3

This is taking back Sunday from the late nineties. I don't know if the song is from the late nineties and that's what it's band formed.

Speaker 1

Metro councilwoman Donna Purvis is being accused of harassment after following an elderly constituent back to her apartment building in September after a heated verbal art altercation at city Hall. Months after the inter interaction, the woman has filed a police report an ethics complaint against Purvis, becoming the latest of a string of legal and ethics fights involving the councilwoman, wow,

who represents much of Louisville's West End. In the six years she's been in the office, the Democrat has been sued for defamation by her former legislative assistant, racked up twenty thousand dollars in fines from a campaign finance violation, faced a lawsuit from a constituent who claims she got him fired, and received multiple ethics complaints, some of which are ongoing.

Speaker 2

Write down what I think her political affiliation is.

Speaker 1

I already said it, and I'm gonna slide it over there. I already said it. I already said it. Uh so uh. Metroal Council has been very boring for a little while. Yeah, they've ramped things up, all right. They had trial yesterday and they got this situation again that this is the story for WDRB that I was reading from. But Donna Purvis, they are they're they're heating things up on Metro Council.

You take your eye, you know, you take your eye off them for a while, because Craig was doing a good job, right, Like Craig is doing a good job, and so you know, you don't look at the council Metro Council much. Well they you know, you always got to keep your folks, and we'll update you on the Donna Privosse situation. Metro Council.

Speaker 2

Well, not local lawmakers, but a lawmaker in Washington, state Representative Mary Foss. She sponsored House Bill one seven three nine. What's it for? Well established rules on how to self check check out in grocery stores. The state representative submitted the bill requiring no more than a maximum of fifteen items when you do the self checkout in store.

Speaker 1

Okay, time out?

Speaker 2

Okay.

Speaker 1

I read that headline, yeah, and then I thought, okay, because when you're in in the old days, there was always one express lane, and if somebody had more than ten items, then someone there was always someone ready to speak up, right, and they would say that's me have fifteen items and you're in the express lane. And and sometimes Johnny, you've experienced this. You you came to mic pretty quickly. I was.

Speaker 3

I mean, I was a child whenever this happened, but I remember being at the store with parents and seeing this.

Speaker 1

Yes, well, because some people will get if you have a six pack of gatorade, people are like, that's sixs that one item, that's one eye, that's one Okay, No, that's that's six uhas, No, that's one stack of binans. So when I read that headline, Dwight, I said, are they gonna start policing how many? But that's not the rule she wants. Mary Foss wants to do something different, which I agree with.

Speaker 2

Go ahead, I know I agree with it. I agree with it too. Yes, but it's it's you can have a maximum of fifteen items at the self checkout stores. Here's what I've never under stores, self checkout lines. Here's what I've never understood, though, Why not just calibrate these self checkout machines or after fifteen items it shuts down and go straight to total? You know what I mean?

Speaker 1

That's not a bad idea, right.

Speaker 2

So there you go and there's none of this well.

Speaker 1

You know, it's just it's a terrible idea. And I'll tell you why.

Speaker 2

Well, no, here's what you're gonna say you're gonna say they're gonna stop ring that up and start bringing the other one.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Speaker 2

No, then you got a guy like me yelling at him, okay, hey blankety blank. And then you got my wife her head down okay.

Speaker 1

Kroger our Kroger at Hubbard used to be the best. It's not anymore. It's it's just understaffed. And I get it.

Speaker 2

But that's every that's everything.

Speaker 1

I don't know that story. I will tell you that there are times that they don't have any people checking out. That not all self checkout. Right, So even if I'm like, if you have a family, you've got a cart and a half of food, you you've got to bag all this, try to bag it. And remember you run out of room at the area. You can't bag anymore. No. And then they were just like attendant is coming, attendant is coming.

Speaker 2

Oh they're not coming.

Speaker 1

It's like, oh great, I can't continue until somebody comes over and they swipe and do whatever. It is frustrating. And then they eliminated three of the checkout lanes and gave you the one long one where the thing goes goes where it goes down, right, Yeah, And if you don't put the item in the center of the.

Speaker 2

Oh, it's such damp. If it would just work right and be less of a pain in the ass to be fine. But sometimes I'll scan like four or five items and I'll say call for assistance and they'll come over them. They'll just after I wait for like three or four minutes, they'll come over and they'll can some kind of cold nickel.

Speaker 1

There you go, sir.

Speaker 2

And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened? If it's, oh, nothing, you just scanned too many items too fast.

Speaker 1

If it benefited me, I wouldn't mind. But you're charging me eight dollars for a bottle of ranch dressing and I still have to check out my own food. Now it feels like, look, if you self check out, we'll give you a ten percent discount, like over the top, like off the top. Then okay, I'm in.

Speaker 3

So you're anti self checkout.

Speaker 1

I am tired of checking my own food out and you're charging me triple what I paid two years ago.

Speaker 2

It'd be nice, it'd be nice to have the option, you know what I mean. But you go into a grocery store it would be a Saturday at noon, and you look and they're like, oh, well it's gonna be Saturday at noon, we might be quite busy. Better open two registers.

Speaker 3

Well, imagine today with the snow coming in.

Speaker 2

Oh, I know, I'm done. I was gonna ava.

Speaker 1

This isn't relatively a new thing. Self checkout didn't exist a couple of years ago. It was all you had to get in line and someone checked out your groceries. The self checkout came out. It was like, if you're in a hurry and only have one or two items, bag by bam doll. Oh now it is that's the way you check out. It's it's changed. There's been a shift, and I get the I get it's hard to hire people.

Speaker 2

Hey, here's one thing. In the off chance, in the off chance there happens to be a human being at my grocery store, you can actually go through the line and have them check you out. In the rare occasion that happens. Here's one thing I do hate though. They wring you up and they say, okay, you got six items there. Two of them were a carton of eggs. Your total is two hundred and thirty four dollars. Would you like to donate two dollars to such and such.

I always say, oh, no, no, I don't want to, but you're more than welcome to take ten percent of my purchase and donate it. Because here's what they do. They say, oh, in front of everybody, hey, do you want to donate two dollars to such and such? And they take all that collection and then they take the tax right off on it.

Speaker 1

Correct. Just you know what, if you're really.

Speaker 2

Going to be generous, correct, just put a percentage of all proceeds.

Speaker 1

It started in gas stations. Remember, they would be like a little shamrock and you put yourn you can write your name on it, and they would hang it in the gas station and you're like, well, that's kind of need of of that. Does stop and go place to do that? And then you figure out, no, they're taking all that cash.

Speaker 2

And but they were satisfaction in that because I could write a dirty name correct and put it up there and there and there you would have this name that you know, two meetings.

Speaker 1

Something with Gilli cut Yeah, I get it. So they would require uh, they wanted she wants to change things. Go look, you guys, grocery stores have to step up. I'm with her but there's not a lot of competition, but just simply you you know, and I and I love my people at Kroger. Don't get me wrong, the people work at Kroger are awesome.

Everything's a sequel now, Adam Sandler, The Remaker is a sequel of Happy Gilmour they're doing.

Speaker 1

It's a remake or no what it's a sequence, a sequel everyone that's.

Speaker 3

An original in Hollywood.

Speaker 1

It'll it'll flop. I think it's on Netflix anyway.

Speaker 2

Here's what I understand is because look, you got all this crap television and there's really nothing out there. But then this guy Taylor Sheridan Yellowstone, Mayri of Kingstown, King of Tulsa, land Man everything. This guy touches his goat. No, so it could be done. It's just Hollywood's lazy.

Speaker 1

Here's the problem in lies. Here's the problem is because the nineteen nineties, again, social has shifted too much. You have the phone, social media, you're always in contact, there's the internet. You take away all that, and then these movies are hilarious because you went to the theater with your buddies and you laughed and it was just funny because you didn't see anything like that. You had to watch TV to see stuff like that. Now you're just

overwhelmed with material and it's just not the same. It's funny when you're twenty four. If you're sixty four doing the same jokes.

Speaker 2

Hey man, look a lot of that jokes are reruns, but they're funny joke, right, I'm sorry. For example, you're right, how do you catch a unique rabbit?

Speaker 1

I don't know? Unique cup on it?

Speaker 2

Well, thank you, I remember where. Yeah, we both got infancymo laugh. I was well, I was thinking about yesterday. Is that the death rattle?

Speaker 1

If I pass out? If I pass out just to pour water on.

Speaker 2

John, I think I'd recognize that as the death rattle.

Speaker 3

It sounds pretty bad.

Speaker 2

No, I was thinking about the other day, how we would go down the Blockbuster Video and you get this big, clunky VHS cassette and then you would PLoP it in. Everybody was so excited.

Speaker 1

He We had a real quick twenty seconds. He lent me his video of Friday Friday, Oh my gosh, and he got kicked under the couch cost me one hundred and twenty five hours. And at that time, if you didn't return it, they would add up the days of the rental, not the cost of to replace it, how much it was to rent every single day of money.

Speaker 2

They lost one hundred and twenty five bucks.

Speaker 1

They assumed that they could have rendered it every single day. So we got in horrific fights. I don't even know if it came to blows in the studios because I was convinced he was lying and that he took it back. And when we moved out of that house, picked up the couch.

Speaker 2

There it was. There was I got in your argument with your wife.

Speaker 1

There it was there. It was said, Oh it was you got kick turn of the couch.

Speaker 3

I missed Blockbuster, I got an argument.

Speaker 2

I got an argument with your wife one time, and it did come to blows.

Speaker 1

Oh okay, so no, I do miss When my kids were little, that was some of the most fun things we did as parents and kids. I go, let's go to the movie store, and then the kids were five and like four, and they would just run around and pick out stuff.

Speaker 2

But you remember when when we were in high school. I know, we gotta get to break. But when we were in high school, everybody like a Friday Saturday night. You know, you go down to the video store and you're looking here would be just this blockbuster movie. But then over off the corner of your eye you spot a case. It has a half naked butt on it.

Speaker 1

You lete scene. That's a terrible movie when it was. I tell you, I think if you ask my kids, they'll say those nights were fun where they could run around the store and pick out movies. Course, and they always picked out the same movies. John would pick out Sandlot and then it.

Speaker 3

Was less cool with red Box and now it's completely uncool.

Speaker 2

Ident occasionally these kids would run behind in this secret room behind the curtains and come out with a different kind of movie. Can we have this one day? Oh?

Speaker 1

Jeff Tokey said he dropped some ding dongs off if you wanted him.

Speaker 2
