2:09
It's Eaton Douglas. Well eating, I'll just gould and say good morning.
2:13
How are you? Good morning? I'm well, welcome to the show.
2:15
Welcome to your first you've been on the show before this for your first
2:17
time as a guest host. Yes, so we get to know Eaton Douglas
2:21
a little bit, a little bit more and some things going on over the
2:23
ballpark with the with the lights and all of a bunch. We're going to
2:27
talk about that a little bit later on. Also coming up a little bit
2:30
later, Jason Quindrell from the Union Mission is going to join us as well.
2:35
Want to welcome in our good friend, though, Chris Lawrence, that's
2:37
you. That'd be me. When I said good friend, Chris Lawrence talk
2:40
high school football, how are you got? You guys went full blown Clark
2:44
Griswold over the ballpark, Clark Griswold, and then some yeah. Yeah,
2:47
it's like Clark Griswold on steroids. When I saw the picture, I thought,
2:52
Holy cow, because I noticed they were out there hanging lights like right
2:55
before trick or beat. You guys have been doing that since the last day
3:00
of the season. As soon as our season is that it started. Yeah,
3:02
it's amazing, it really is. I've never seen anything like that,
3:07
Chris, Before I talk high school football. We do have a couple of
3:08
quick news notes I want to get to. Of course, they're still trying
3:10
to get people reconnected to the gas gas lines there in over on the west
3:16
side. They have a number four us Off the top of your head,
3:19
I mean, how many more more we got to? I think I heard
3:22
carry throw out a number this morning. I mean they still got thes well
3:23
over half that still have to Yeah, they there were eleven hundred roughly out
3:29
originally. And we're talking customers, not people. This this is outlets,
3:32
so and I think as of yesterday last update we got, they had three
3:37
hundred and fifty restored, and they had about fifty more that they need to
3:42
just do the inspection and then they'll be good. But they're still adhering to
3:45
that middle of the next week before everything's back on. And you have to
3:47
keep in mind it is eleven hundred customers, which is a household. I
3:52
mean, if there's four in a household, you're looking at four or five
3:54
thousand people here exactly. And we talked about that with mister scaff earlier.
4:00
But you can't just it's not like the power where you just flip a switch.
4:01
They literally have to go house to house and make sure they everything.
4:04
And you want to do that because the last thing you want is to do
4:08
something wrong and when you turn that on, you blow up a house or
4:10
something. Yeah, that's yeah, I mean, because that's a very dangerous
4:14
possibility, is it is. When you're dealing with gas, it kind of
4:15
does its own thing sometimes. Also, there was a traffic situation this morning
4:19
and it really wasn't effect in interstate traffic, but it's westbound off the Nitro
4:25
exit. From what I understand, there was a truck that overturned, a
4:28
paint truck that overturned. And is that exit that exit still closed. Yeah,
4:30
it's going to be closed for several hours. Last update I had,
4:33
they said several hours. There's a crew that was on its way from Louisville.
4:36
I think they actually had arrived in the last hour and we're going to
4:41
begin the cleanup. It was a semi, one of those tandem trailer semis,
4:46
and it was hauling paint in one of the trailers and they had some
4:48
kind of corrosive substance in the other they didn't really identify what it was.
4:53
That corrosive substance thankfully did not leak, but the paint spilled and came out
4:58
everywhere. So they were going and to have to clean that up and it's
5:00
going to take several hours. The truck in the five o'clock hour was exiting
5:04
going west, exiting at Nitro and lost control and went through that sort of
5:10
median area if you're familiar with that exit, and when he flipped over,
5:14
he was in the on ramp going the other way, and so they had
5:17
closed down both the exit and the on ramp. They're at the Nitro westbound.
5:21
It doesn't affect the other side of the interstate. The eastbounds fine,
5:27
and like you said, the traffic itself in the interstate was not impacted,
5:30
which that's already a mess with the bridge construction day is do you you know
5:35
all about it? Let's talk about our high school football coverage. We got
5:39
Winfield tonight and Hoover tomorrow. Two local teams still still in action at least
5:43
two that they're in our coverage area, and that is Winfield and they are
5:46
hosting the defending Double A state champion Independence Patriots. Tonight, we'll be on
5:51
the air at seven o'clock with the COMACS pregame show. Kickoff is at seven
5:56
point thirty at General Stadium, and then tomorrow afternoon, much like we did
6:00
last week, we will have Herbert Hoover on the road. They're going back
6:03
to Marion County taking on number one North Marion in Class Double A. This
6:08
is a rematch these two teams played earlier this year. It was a pretty
6:11
closely matched game. I think North Marion won it by a touchdown. So
6:16
Hoover going up there to try to defeat the other Huskies in the state and
6:19
see if they can continue on to Round three of the playoffs, the semifinals
6:25
that will be next week. We'll bring you that coverage. Three point thirty
6:29
will be on the air tomorrow we'll break into Mountaineer coverage, but just like
6:30
we did last week, it'll be over on ESPN Radio if you want to
6:34
continue to listen to Hopy in the Gang. And then once we are done,
6:39
we'll just go right back to our metro news coverage of the Mountaineers,
6:42
all right. Of course, Fred and Dave will be along after the game
6:45
tonight with high school game night, Westerngin now doors tomorrow morning, dear season
6:47
gets underway. I guess next week in wist f uXt season opens Monday morning
6:50
at daylight. And I've just started doing this because it seems to be a
6:55
popular thing to do. I got a couple of the Natural Resources Police officers.
6:59
It'll be live in student with us this morning, and we will take
7:01
questions. If you have a question about game, about game laws, about
7:05
uh, you know, affecting deer season. They will be here and they
7:11
will handle those questions and we can get you straightened out before opening day on
7:15
Monday morning and perhaps save you a ticket and some headaches. All right,
7:18
Chris will be listening tomorrow morning. You and the gang, have you got
7:21
two more great games here? When Field to Height and Herbert Uver tomorrow we
7:26
do and depending on if they win at advance will we will endeavor to bring
7:30
you at least one of them next week. If they play at the same
7:33
time, we can't bring you both of them. But we're good, but
7:35
not that good. Yeah, Well, we got to figure out. We
7:38
got to figure out if they first, they got to win, and then
7:40
we'll figure out when they play, and then we'll let you know in the
7:42
morning News Monday. All right, Chris, appreciate it man as always,
7:45
thanks a lot, Chris Lawrence again for the news room, talking sports,

8:30
Please Pet of the Week from the Canals Charlestony Main Association. That's going to
8:33
Angie Gillenwater, who's in for Hannah this morning. And Angie, good morning.
8:37
How are you. I'm great, guys, I'm doing fine. I
8:41
understand that our kid our kid, not our kid, but I call her
8:45
the kid. Hannah is feeling a little bit under the weather today, so
8:48
we will hope that to hope that she gets better soon. Yeah, she's
8:52
she's basically lost her voice. So you can't really do the radio show with
8:54
no voice. I tried it last year and it doesn't. It doesn't work,
9:00
but I appreciate you. You stepping up to play My guest co host
9:03
this week is Eden Douglas from The Dirty Bird. So you all make nice
9:07
and say hello to each other. Hi, Angie Hello. We're actually our
9:11
adoptions team at the shelter is planning to stop by and see the lights next
9:15
week. Oh yay. You won't be disappointed. You will not. And
9:18
we're going to talk about the lights coming up a little bit later on.
9:20
I want to talk about Ricky Bobby though. That's our dot me. Please
9:24
put it of the week. I get the picture posted as always on my
9:26
social media. Dave alland Radio and The Dave Allen Show on x ART is
9:31
formally known as Twitter. This is a great looking dog. In her description,
9:37
Angie last night, Eden Hannah said to me, this may be the
9:43
perfect dog. And I know there's no such thing as a perfect dog,
9:46
but this one comes pretty dang close. Is that right? Yeah, Ricky
9:48
Bobby comes very close. He's good with other pets, cats, doglike,
9:54
he's good with kids, he's housebroken, he's great trained like, he checks
9:58
every box. Any idea what kind of dog he is? West Virginia brown
10:03
dog is our best bet. If we had to guess, he's probably a
10:09
mixture of like lab and pity, just like every single dog that hits you.
10:15
It seems that way. Now he's a big old boy too, so
10:18
we want to make sure that whomever adopts and realizes he's going to need a
10:20
lot of roun Yes, so he is a big dog. However, he
10:26
is a senior dog as well. Okay, probably not going to be running
10:28
any marathons in your yard. He's probably just gonna need a larger count to
10:31
sleep. They I can relate. I can relate too. I mean,
10:37
I know, like you have this dog, that Ricky Bobby, that we're
10:39
talking about this morning, but we're becoming under cold weather now and you guys
10:43
have a lot of animals in the shelter. Is there like anything that you
10:46
guys are taking like blankets, and you guys are always accepting donations, but
10:50
can you tell us more about how we can help Ricky Bobby get him adopted,
10:54
but also support him while he's still there with you guys or the other
10:56
others as well. Yeah, yeah, of course. So the biggest thing
11:01
that people can do to support is definitely donate blanket, sheets, towels,
11:07
food, toys, basically anything pet related we can find a use for.
11:11
However, I understand things are tough right now for a lot of people,
11:16
and it's starting to be that time of year, so donations are going to
11:20
be a little bit harder to come by, and that's totally okay. Another
11:22
big way that people can help us out is by just sharing the word and
11:26
letting your friends, letting your family, letting anybody you come into contact with
11:31
know that we're there, we're full, and we have so many animals that
11:35
are looking to spend the holidays in a home and you know we're getting in
11:39
as you kind of alluded to, Angie, we're getting into the Christmas season
11:43
and people like to, you know, give pats sometimes as Christmas gifts.
11:46
That's not always the best idea in the world because eventually, you know,
11:50
the dog or cat is going to require you know, care just like they
11:54
do. Yeah, but if you are thinking of getting a pet for a
12:00
as a Christmas gift, you know, think long and hard about it,
12:01
because Christmas is gonna go away, the lights are gonna go down, and
12:05
you're gonna be you know, I don't want to say it stuck, but
12:07
you're gonna have a pet to take care of before you go to a breeder.
12:09
Though. Please, we implore if you please consider checking out one of
12:13
the shelters. Yes, definitely, I would say, please please come check
12:18
us out, come see who we have. We try to make our adoption
12:20
process as easy and as welcoming and as pleasant as we possibly can. We
12:28
have just about everything there, any type of coat, color, any type
12:31
of behavior. We have dogs that get along with other animals, dogs that
12:35
don't. So whatever you're looking for, we have it all right, Angie.
12:41
As always, I appreciate you taking time out of your schedule. You
12:43
folks do great work up there. You have a happy Thanksgiving and hopefully Hannah
12:46
will get well soon. But you always do a great job too, so
12:50
we appreciate you being here. Thanks a lot. Well, thank you you
12:52
guys. To all right. Angie Gillawater again from the Kenal Trust Humane Association.
12:56
Ricky Bobby is the dog's name. I should have probably never asked what
13:01
the story. I mean, I know Ricky Bobby obviously from the movie,
13:03
but I don't know if Ricky came in as Astray, if that was yeah,
13:07
I'm not sure, But I say that I go through their Facebook and
13:11
their website sometimes to look at some of the names that they have for these
13:15
pets that are in there, and I just I want to know the background
13:16
as to why they name those. Well. Sometimes I mean they show up
13:20
and they don't have names. Sometimes they do. And if a dog is
13:22
six years old, as Ricky Bobby is, he probably if he had that
13:26
name going in, he probably knows that name now, so you're probably going
13:28
to be stuck with that name. Ricky Bobby is six years old, seventy
13:33
nine pounds of gentle giant is the way Hannah described him. He is housebroken,
13:37
he is kid dog and cat friendly. Loves people. And again we
13:41
all animals are awesome in my opinion, even the ones that aren't so much,
13:46
but this one if you're looking for a pet. And again, he's
13:50
a bigger guy, but he's an older guy too, so he's more interested
13:54
in your couch than he is probably digging under your fence. So let's try
13:58
to get this dog adopted. Pictures posted on Dave Allen Radio on Facebook and
14:03
The Dave Allen Show on x yard is formerly known as Twitter. Ricky Bobby
14:07

settle down with friends and family for a home cooked meal, turkey dressing,
17:53
football and everything goes along with Thanksgiving. But it's not the case for everyone.
17:59
Yeah, So nine o'clock Thanksgiving morning, this is the twelfth annual Drumstick
18:03
Dash, and man, it's become a pretty cool tradition for a lot of
18:10
families from all over. Many families. This is kind of how they kick
18:14
off their Thanksgiving tradition. Now, what is the drumstick Dash? So it's
18:18
a five k starts there where we do live on the levee and goes down
18:22
to the Capitol and back. It is legit the start place and the end
18:26
place there. It is exactly the three point two whatever that may be.
18:30
We have pretty serious runners that take take pride in this race and to say,
18:34
don't look at me and want me to give you any specifics on me
18:38
either on I'm like, okay, listen, this is my seventh one,
18:45
and I get rassed every single year because I never run in it. I
18:51
say, I say, if I'm only running if someone is chasing, that's
18:55
what I'm still not. Probably not going to run that far. Yeah,
18:57

19:00
logistics up there. If you are the main absolutely exactly exactly. I know
19:04

19:45
You say, yeah, man, but it is still David still has not
19:48
gotten me to run the five, not even not even the pie. No,
19:52
I don't think it would make me either. Honestly, it's not fair
19:56
trade off to me because I know at some point later in the I'm getting
20:00
pumpkin pie. Anyway. Yeah, that's that's that's that's a fair point.
20:03
Yeah. And so how long does it normally take to run this? I
20:07
mean, so what time would it wrap up? So I guess events like
20:10
who you are, we have some yeah eating and I would be like three
20:12
days okay, Well I would be coming in about four or four and a
20:15
half probably, but we have we have people that are back in five something.
20:19
It's insane. Okay, maybe not five okay, So it's not going
20:23
to take up the whole day or anything like that. I mean, you
20:26
can still plan on being at home and enjoying enjoying your dinner and your football
20:30
and whatever. Yeah, man, you I mean football is a huge part
20:33
of things. I love the football part. You got to get to that.
20:34
So it's three point two. You can walk it. And I don't
20:38
know how many people. How many people do you normally have to take?
20:41
You were from a thousand to twelve hundred to I think in some years past
20:48
you've had up to fifteen hundred people. Okay, And I'm looking at the
20:51
weather forecast right now because we're you know, we got rain in the forecast
20:53
today and then there's going to be some heavy rain on Tuesday, but it's
20:56
going to be cool on Thanksgiving Day. And at Spencer Adkins, of my
21:00
folks in the weather business, I always say it can change. Can't accurately
21:03
predict the weather more than forty eight hours in advance. However, looks like
21:07
Thanksgiving is gonna be sunny. You're gonna be cool that morning. What time
21:11
is it that you're starting again, Nine o'clock? Okay, so it's gonna
21:12
be probably in the upper twenties to low thirties when you're starting just run faster.
21:17
Well, that's what I was going to say. So it's those of
21:18
us who are standing around watching who are actually suffering. We're suffering, suffering
21:23
for everybody. Those of you that are running, you know you're gonna be
21:26
warm, nice toasty, you get the sweat rolling a little bit. It's
21:30
us that are watching that will be see exactly what else we got going on
21:33
for the Union mission during a Christmas Man. We start today at two o'clock
21:37
at the Arts and Crafts Show. If you are planning to go to the
21:42
Arts and Craft Show at the Civic Center starting today at two o'clock, we're
21:47
gonna have a truck out front, and if you bring some non perishable items
21:52
and food box food things like that, you will get some money off of
21:56
that ticket. So you come to our truck, we'll give you a ticket
22:00
to show at the counter, and they'll give you a certain amount of money
22:03
off of your entry into the Arts and Crafts Show. A pretty good deal.
22:07
And we certainly need the food because there are i mean today's economy man,
22:11
those that are working are struggling with the price of groceries as such,
22:15
I mean, the need just keeps going up, and we're trying to meet
22:18
that need and it's getting tougher and tougher, so we really need your help.
22:19
Yeah, so and the art and I actually had the gentleman John from
22:23
the Arts and Crafts Deal on last week on last Friday show, and he
22:29
talked about that. We gave away tickets to that on the air the other
22:30
stations in the ability and give it away tickets all week to That's a that's
22:33
a pretty big deal. Even if you ever had a chance to go to
22:36
that. If not, you really should check it out. Everyone talks about
22:37
how awesome it is. It is. I might have to check it out.
22:40
Yeah, they bring some food and pick up a couple of cans of
22:42
cream corpts. I get it. I mean, like off of what you
22:45
said, I mean, today's economy is crazy and there's so many people that
22:48
are struggling and it's like some of my friends and my family that I see
22:52
and it's so definitely highly recommend you know, bringing some food items and it's
22:56
great that you guys help out the way. You guys do appreciate that.
23:00
It's I mean, it's hard working families that are working and still looking to
23:04
Okay, maybe we're going to have to cut back on Thanksgiving this year.
23:07
Man, I remember growing up. I'm from Saint Albans and man, yeah,
23:12
great memories of family and all the food and the spread. It kind
23:15
of breaks my heart. Thanksgiving and Christmas. People may be struggling at right
23:19
yeah. And again we always say it's a Friday is a politics free zone,
23:25
so I'm not going to get into all that. But regardless of who's
23:27
in the White House, not getting into all that, people are struggling right
23:32
now. Yea. And you can sjointla, you can point fingers wherever you
23:33
want. People are struggling right now. The prices are, although some have
23:37
gone down, are insane. You know. We just did our turkey drop
23:41
out here yesterday, and by the way, thanks to everybody to help them.
23:44
We'll talk about that a little bit later on to help pull that off,
23:47
but I appreciate everybody for helping out with that. But the turkey is
23:49
kind of like, you know, a whole lot more expensive, they say,
23:52
than what it used to be in the past. So we just bought
23:53
five hundred of them, wow, about two three weeks ago. And for
23:59
our Thanksgiving. Your cotribution is excuse me, Saturday this Saturday, as well,
24:03
the eighteenth and man four hundred and fifty families are coming through that distribution,
24:10
So talk about that. How does the distribution work? I mean,
24:11
how do they have to be approved? They sign up? How does that
24:15
work? Yeah, so they actually come in. We have a volunteer's office
24:18
set up on our first floor in our admin building, and so for the
24:21
last month we've had people coming through and signing up. We take their id,
24:26
take we have some questions we asked as far as meeting the criteria,
24:30
and we give them a ticket and then they show up Saturday morning and stay
24:37
in their cars. We go around and talk to these folks. We have
24:41
Bible Center folks. They show up and they do an awesome job. By
24:45
the way. They counsel with these folks a little bit, pray with them
24:48
if they want it, and then we we fill them up with a fifteen
24:53
pound turkey, six to twelve cans of food, two boxes of stuffing,
25:00
two boxes of mac and cheese, and drinks PEPSI donated skids of of drinks
25:07
to give out. Pretty good. That's good stuff. I mean, it
25:10
really really is to have people that come to in and you can't pull off
25:12
an event like that. Without a lot of volunteers, but also about a
25:17
lot of corporate folks stepping up and donating products and and and and time and
25:21
things of that nature. All right, Uh so somebody just texted me said
25:25
five k is three point one miles, so you got three point two.
25:30
Who ever sent that in, Thank you so much, Thank you so much.
25:32
All right, let's go back to uh the uh drumstick dash again time
25:36
place. And you said registration has ended ended yesterday. That's online registration,
25:41
right, but please don't let that stop you again. Come early. We
25:47
start at nine Thanksgiving morning. We are right there at uh down where they
25:52
do live at the levee and uh they start places there. They go down
25:57
to the Capitol and back and so it's really not three point one miles.
26:02
It's not that not that far. But man, you can you can come
26:06
down to a registration table that morning. We'll get you signed up, We'll
26:10
get you everything you need. They take it serious. They give that that
26:14
number badge thing where it's got the electronics stuff for their times and and and
26:18
all of that. I've always wondered every year why I always get triple zero,
26:22
But now now I know why. Yeah, there you go. Because
26:25
I'm always probably I'm just standing there watching. But but anyway, yeah,
26:29
it's it's just a fun event, you know, it's it's gonna be great.
26:33
And again, I appreciate you taking time out of your schedule. It's

Douglas from the Dirty Birds. Here is our Friday guestos Here on Friday fin
29:49
House. I did want to again take time out to thank everybody who came
29:53
out for the first ever w VRC Media Turkey Drop yesterday. We collected a
29:57
whole lot eating of frozen turkeys and cash to be given away to those in
30:03
need this holiday season. The folks of big Ley Pigley Wiggily teamed up with
30:06
us from day one. This is all kind of the brainchild of Rob Real,
30:08
who does our morning show on her sister station, ninety six to one
30:11
k WS. And Rob had seen this done, as he talked about on
30:15
the show yesterday, and he had seen this done in other areas, other
30:18
stations and other places that he's been and kind of playing off of the name
30:22
Turkey Drop from w k RP in Cincinnati, which I know you don't remember
30:26
that, but the whole reason I got into radio was because of that show.
30:30
But big Lely Pickley Wiggily was awesome to team up with Chick fil A
30:34
of South Charleston South Ridge. They set us up eating with these gift cards.
30:37
So the first five hundred people that came through with a donation of either
30:41
a frozen turkey or cash, they got free breakfast from Chick fil A.
30:45
So we we ran out of those. So thanks to Tom Mentor and the
30:51
and the folks for making that all possible. And for the first time we
30:53
ever did it, we did pretty darn good. I'm not gonna lie to
30:56
you, and it's all well, and it's all because of our listeners.
30:59
I mean you know, we can we can run this stuff. We could
31:00
talk about it on the air, but until the listeners of all of our
31:03
stations here I mentioned, you know, ninety six one KWS and all of
31:07
the stations that are in the building, they're the ones that come through.
31:10
All we did was stand out there and collect it. They're the ones that
31:12
actually came through. So we appreciate greatest listeners in the world we have here
31:17
at the Station's the WVRC Media Charles and A right Een Douglas is here from
31:19
The Dirty Dirty Birds. You've been on this show a lot of times in
31:23
the past. You may be approaching Hall of Fame status as far as the
31:27
number of appearances on the show. Well, I mean it's been You've been
31:32
on a lot, but you've never been on as a Friday co host.
31:36
And you're leaving us. You're leaving the Dirty Birds. You announced it.
31:38
I already knew about it, but you announced it on social media. You're
31:41
leaving the Dirty Birds. Well, yeah, today is officially my last day
31:45
with the Dirty Birds. It's a little bittersweet. I mean I started there
31:48
in twenty nineteen, so I've been there for four years. Even whenever the
31:52
season was canceled with COVID, I was kind of still they're still hanging in
31:56
there, so yeah, yeah, it's weird. I haven't really it hasn't
32:00
really like said in yet that you know, this is my last day and
32:06
I won't be involved anymore, because that's all I've ever known, kind of
32:07
like after I graduated high school, I was in college for a semester and
32:12
then I got an internship there, So it is kind of like since I
32:16
left high school at the Charleston Dirty Birds, it's like all I've ever known.
32:20
So it's definitely interesting. Well, you know, I think I can
32:23
speak on behalf of all of the all of the of the Canal Valley here
32:27
and our listeners that you've been in absolute joy, you know to work with.
32:30
We endured the name change, yeah, the moving to cash lists,
32:34
which you know we thought was going to be the be all end all and
32:37
turned out not to be the the changing the name of the ballpark, bringing
32:42
the Savannah Bananas to town, the Down and Dirty festival, so much.
32:45
You've done a lot of stuff that didn't always involve at nine innings of baseball.
32:51
Yeah yeah, and then on top of the nine innings with baseball,
32:53
I was the one field host in MC. I was producing all of those
32:57
shows, so every show, sixty six games we went through this season and
33:02
last year whenever I was with Lindsay we did all of those games as well.
33:06
So it's like, we've got a lot of baseball, but there are
33:09
a lot of extra things that go into it that a lot of people don't
33:14
realize. Yeah, they don't see that. So what are you going to
33:15
be doing. I'm going to be teaching full time. I decided to get
33:21
take a break from the sports chaos for a little bit because it is a
33:24
lot it's it's a lot of hours and a lot of there is you and
33:29
I talked about this during the break. That's what it's kind of like it
33:31
is when you do radio full time too. There's a trade off for having
33:35
a quote unquote fun job because you see what you do on the field with
33:37
the MC work, and you see the promotions, and you think, man,
33:40
that that that's got to be a fun job. Well, they don't
33:43
see. I mean you're spending you know, some days you and the others
33:46
not just you at the ball We're spending fourteen hours a day at that that
33:49
ballpark. I mean, like when we would have camps and stuff, we
33:52
were there. Registration started at eight. We needed to be there at six
33:54
thirty or seven to make sure everything was set up, and then if we
33:59
have a game that night, we're not leaving until all the fans are out,
34:00
everything's cleaned up, we've got everything set to go for the next day.
34:05
So like sometimes we're there from seven am until midnight or one am,
34:08
just making sure everything's up and run. It's not just me, it's half
34:12
the staff because we want to make sure that everything is right and it's the
34:15
best experience it can be for people who are first timers or are coming back
34:19
again. So it's a lot and we're doing it again. So this is
34:22
kind of like this Light the Night we're they're calling it like our second season
34:28
because we have sixty six home games or sixty three, I don't remember the
34:30
exact number this year, and now we've got forty four nights of Light the
34:35
Night. But in season we have some breaks because where the team goes out
34:38
of town, we don't have no breaks with Light the Night. So it
34:42
is forty four days straight of Christmas and you did a lot of work,
34:46
you and the team to put this thing together. I have not seen it.
34:50
I've only seen the pictures. I know I was there. Was a
34:52
lady in the building. Didn't even catch her name, but she was here
34:55
on an appointment to see somebody else, and she was talking about going her
35:00
and her family. We've got tickets for Thursday night. Steve Animal from our
35:01
sister station, The Mountain ninety eighty seven, was there a couple of nights
35:06
ago. We posted pictures of his visit there on the on the Mountain Facebook
35:08
page. This is quite impressive. I mean, how does this whole idea
35:13
come about to do this? So we our owner, Andy Shea, is
35:16
friends with the people who own the team in Florence, Kentucky, the Florence
35:21
y'alls And wait minute, the Florence y'awls. Yeah, that is their name.
35:23
Why a l S y A ll s. I love Minor League Baseball
35:28
Florence y'alls. Yeah, it's really fun and like their water tower in downtown
35:31
Florence just has yealls written really love. Yeah. So he's friends with them
35:37
and they do it every year and it's a really big deal. There's not
35:42
like Florence isn't very popular or anything, but people drive to see that,
35:46
so Andy wanted to bring something like that here and we have the Holly Jolly
35:51
Brawley, but we also wanted to you know, incorporate something with that too,
35:54
so we have that. So he partnered with them. And then there's
35:58
another company out of tech sugar Land, Texas, sugar Land Space Cowboys.
36:02
That's their team name it Love It, which is one of my favorites.
36:07
They do it as well, so we decided to bring it here. The
36:09
Florence guys helped. The company that runs it are based out of Texas,
36:14
and they brought everything in and kind of laid everything out and we wrapped lights
36:17
individually. So the day the season ended, like literally the day the season
36:22
ended is when we started wrapping those lights around the ballpark. So it has
36:27
been a lot of work. But it's last night. We had a little
36:30
soft opening and it was unreal to see it all pay off. So what
36:34
are people going to see? I mean, what are some of the highlights
36:37
and people come out for this? Oh gosh, there's two million lights.
36:40
I do know that there's two million lights. Two million lights total, I
36:45
want to say maybe thirteen to sixteen like themed areas, so there's like a
36:51
walking path on the field. So when you're in the walking path on the
36:53
field, there's different themed areas and sectioned off and stuff. There's a light
36:58
maze that you have to go through, and I promise it's not as hard
37:00
as you think it will be because we did get lost one time, but
37:05
it's not that bad. The tree there's a sixty foot Christmas tree that's sitting
37:09
on second base that is everything squreographed to music too, So like you're walking
37:15
through this maze and like seeing all these lights, but then you look at
37:17
our stadium seats. Every single seat is wrapped with Christmas lights and it all
37:22
goes to music. So it's crazy. There's Quantum Sports was so generous to
37:29
bring a Ferris wheel, bungee jumps, power sALS. Yes, there is
37:34
a Faerris wheel, like and we wrote it last night. And when you're
37:37
at the top, the overlook of the field is unreal, Like it is
37:40
just it's mind blowing, you know, like you see Christmas lights all the
37:45
time, but like seeing something like that in one area, especially on a
37:49
baseball field like that, that's pretty cool. And it's actually so I guess
37:53
they had the like the kind of the soft oad opening or something, so
37:57
it is tonight, like the official today is opening night or tonight is opening
38:01
night. Sorry tonight, that's a very day thing to say out there.
38:05
So it's it's to night at what time? Five o'clock? Okay? And
38:08
now I have a couple off dates here. They're not doing it. I
38:12
think on November the twentieth, twenty seventh, and December second. That's what
38:15
I happen to. That's fourth. Like a few mondays I think are thrown
38:19
in there. But if you go to the website, it's a dB Light
38:22
the Night okay dot com. They're everything anything, anything, any questions,
38:27
including tickets. Do you need to get tickets in advance? You don't have
38:30
to. Our box office will be open so you can buy tickets there.
38:34
But if you get online, you can also do this in person, but
38:36
it's a lot easier to do it online. We're often offering family of four
38:39
packs for season passes, so it's like sixty two dollars for all forty four
38:45
nights per person, so it's like a family of four pack. Individual season
38:50
passes are like one hundred dollars, so that's an option too, and that
38:53
includes some things with the light displays, we've got a Christmas village that's set
38:58
up on left field. There's Tracey White has been awesome at getting vendors set
39:02
up. So there's a bunch of those that are happening each week. It's
39:06
going to be some of the same ones, but also some new ones.
39:07
I believe the week of the sixteenth, there's like eight vendors that are So
39:10
if somebody goes let's say, you know, Thanksgiving night or the night or
39:14
whatever, that shouldn't be their only time that they go. Because if they
39:17
come back and let's say I'm picking random dates here, but let's say they
39:21
come back December twentieth, they're going to see something totally different that they didn't
39:23
see the first time. R Yeah, yeah, like last night even that
39:27
just the lights themselves. Last night we were walking through the maze and I
39:30
was like, that's the third time I had done it, but I was
39:31
seeing new things every time I was going through it, Like there is just
39:36
so much. You need to come more than one time to really take it
39:38
all in and to really experience it, because the first time it's going to
39:42
be like an adrenaline rush. I kind of because when I went on Tuesday
39:45
night and saw it all, I was like, oh my gosh, like
39:49
and just couldn't around everything. Charleston has literally never seen anything like that.
39:52
No, I mean it's I mean, and you mentioned Holly Jolly Brawley,
39:57
and I had Morgan and Kevin on for the Downtown Charleston's seation. They're actually
40:00
gonna be back on the show again on Monday. We're kind of tying this
40:02
whole thing and together. This is not like competing entities here because as matter
40:06
of fact, there is going to be wait for it, the Holly Jolly
40:09
Bradley trolley by Golly that is going to take people around if they choose to
40:16
do that to all these different things. And it starts at Slack and then
40:20
goes to the Lee Street or something like that, and then we'll go to
40:22
the Capital Market and kind of like go in a triangle between the threes and
40:28
it runs because all the time, so like you can always stop. And
40:30
they're going to be on the show to talk about it on Monday. I

at a lab somewhere near second base and the outfield foul poll. Eaton Douglas.
47:52
Are you ready to play ten questions? Sure? All right? As
47:53
always, remember we're trained professionals. Please do not try this at home,
47:57
and there's always no way dream. All right, we're ready. What is
48:00
the story behind your parents name and you Eden? So it's obviously the book
48:06
in the Bible, or it's the Garden of Eated. Sorry, not a
48:08
book in the Bible. You may be nervous with this. It's the Garden
48:14
of Eden. But actually my mom said one time there was a TV show
48:16
back in the day and there was a couple and the girl's name was Eden,
48:20
so that was one of the main reasons. But also the Garden of
48:22
Eden. But that's not my first name. It's not that is not Her
48:27
first name is Lois yep Lois. Okay, yeah, I've learned something today
48:31
and he remembered that he did. All right, sure, all right?
48:35
What's your favorite cereal cinnamon toast crunch? You're driving across the country. Who's
48:39
the one person who you would normally love to be around, but don't think
48:44
you could travel across the country with them? My boyfriend ex boyfriend? Now
48:51
I love other than lettuce or dressing. When you're at a salad bar,
48:55
what's the one thing that's guaranteed to be on your plate other than let us,
48:59
you're bacon bacon bits? Yeah, my girl? Your favorite sports team
49:04
other than the Dirty Birds, the Westernia Mountaineers, and the Atlanta Braves.
49:08
All right, what's your favorite subject in school? What was it? English?
49:13
Right? Sorry, sorry, mister Albert. Uh. My favorite movie
49:15
growing up as a kid was Oh, my gosh, what was it?
49:21
It's very Oh, Where the Heart Is? It's a Hallmark movie. It's
49:24
Natalie Portman. It's so old that it is my favorite movie of all time.
49:29
It's not childhood, but that's what That's My favorite fast food guilty pleasure
49:32
is the Biggie Bags from Wendy's. The cartoon character that's most like me.
49:40
Oh, I don't know. I didn't really watch cartoons and I still don't.
49:46
Yeah, okay, I don't really know about I don't know. It's
49:50
an acceptable answer that I can see any musical performer out there, regardless of
49:54
cost, venue whatever. Who is it, not Taylor Swift, not anybody,
50:06
doesn't matter the cost the venue, were going to fly you there.
50:07
I mean, Fred's gonna drive you. I really want to see Morgan Wallin.
50:10
But that's such a basic answer answer, all right, all right,
50:16
all right, Fred, what would your be? You're done with ten questions?
50:19
By the way, Fred, I'll ask you what Holly, pardon Dolly?
50:22
That wouldn't that's a good one. I saw her and I did see
50:25
her when she came to Charles. Okay, all right, well you've completed
50:29
ten questions. See that wasn't too difficult. I was all right. I
50:31
got a couple of more minutes left, Fred, Albert is here. Uh
50:34
and uh Eden. He is going to be leaving the dirty Birds, but
50:37
you are going to bigger and better things. What did you see in her,
50:39
Fred that you said it? Or did you see anything in her that
50:43
said? You know what? I think? I think I think she'd be
50:44
a good teacher because I told you didn't know that, and I told you
50:46
that on the poat and you said, I could so see that. I
50:49
could see it because she has compassion. She's passionate about whatever she does,
50:53
but she has she has compassion, and you need that in this in this
50:58
profession, you need to be compassion because she's going to have all types of
51:01
children in her charge. And I just she's kind, she's serious about what
51:07
she does. Watching the tears, what's the tears. I'm the one who's
51:10
going to start crying here. But but I would say that when you see
51:15
that your students grow up and do these things, it makes you feel happy.
51:20
Oh it does. And you know there's several on my list of former
51:22
students who are teachers, and it does make you feel like, well,
51:27
I didn't hurt them any maybe help them and they are successful. Teaching is
51:31
a calling, but especially the type teaching that you are going to be doing
51:35
with these autistic kids, that's even maybe a greater calling. Now that's not
51:38
the word I'm looking for, but I mean that's a special kind of calling.
51:42
It is, but not because not everyone has the ability or the compassion
51:46
to take special needs students and that is a special calling. I do believe
51:52
teaching the best profession because we make all other professions possible. But to do
51:59
what Eden's going to do, I mean what she's already done, what she's
52:01
already accomplished. I'm very proud of her. I'm sure her family's proud of
52:07
her. But she's gonna do great things. All right? Are we crying
52:09
yet? No? But I might when I leave you, all right,
52:14
give me twenty seconds on and light up the night. Oh, visit dblightthanight
52:19
