• 20:44
  Speaker 2: all together. And when I say they're hot, they're hot

  Speaker 1: This this is gonna be Now do I get into
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: the hot wings?
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but he wasn't in the contest. He's too busy.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: So I think all the work in the beginning, you know,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: leading up to it, and then I kind of get
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: to like enjoy myself the day of the event, and
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: then he just does everything.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: So on the on the Schofield chart, we're talking it
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: probably well into the millions.
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: Yes, very much. So how do we how do we
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: gauge that? I have no idea, right, I know what.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: If there's there's different there's like he puts ghost pepper
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: and and.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Tons of different stuff. So oh yes, yes.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: He just finds every hot pepper in town and just
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: like throws it into a sauce.
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: And he's like in the kitchen, he's like, you go
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: with that in there, put that in there. We're gonna
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: put that in there. And they're all random thing, you know.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Some of these some of these sauces, no joke here,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: if you put them on your skin, it'll burn you
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: burn your skin. But we're supposed to eat this.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Right, Yes, it's good. Fair.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: That's why I've burn a hole in your esophagus. So
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: that's going to be happening. What time is that?
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, good question.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: It's going to happen probably between sets of ninety proof,
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: so whenever they decide to take their break, because obviously
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: it's a three hour set that they need, they need
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: a break in the middle or whatever, So whenever they decide,
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: so it'll probably it'll be between three and six.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Okay. So, and here's the thing about the hot Hot
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: wing eating contest is it's a great photo opportunity.
• 23:42

• 26:38
  Speaker 2: and Washington and Orange, so it's it's just like growing

  Speaker 2: with sponsors, which is amazing because sometimes people think sponsorship
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: like businesses sponsor to bring business to them, but these
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: are just people that care about the community and want
• 26:56

  Speaker 6: It's like we have one big calendar.
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: No, we have a we have a big calendar at home,
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: and if we have anything that we need to do,
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: we have to write it town where it's not going
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: to happen.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: So so it's like I have anything in that Mom
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: and Dad don't like to know about. I asked to
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: write it out on the calendar, and if I don't,
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: we're probably not going to be able to do it. Yep, okay,
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: because I have to do it like a week before
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: so we can plan things not on top of it.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I almost like see your mom as someone who's like
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: got a big wall at the house with thousands of
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: sticky notes and moving them around with priorities here, what's
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: getting adjusted, what's getting moved here and there?
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: Looks like that it's just a calendar. Just I mean
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: it's big. Yeah, it's like, but it's not a wall.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: This is it's remarkable that you're able to to do this.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Part of me says, I'm kind of I'm not surprised,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: and I'm especially not surprised that something of this capacity
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: can be pulled off because of our community stepping stepping
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: up and coming toward you, gravitating towards you, saying let's
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: let's help out. Let's make this happen because we need this.
• 34:12
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I like towards the end of last week
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: when I started getting sponsorships from like Gusto's and Mulligan's
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: and and Summer Street Tavern, as well as donated Tina
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Coates who used to work for me and she started
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: her own business, and it's you know, it's amazing, but
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: it's just heartwarming to know that these businesses that people
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: always think that are competing with each other, right, you
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: know what I mean, that's one of I don't like
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: that question. People constantly are like, oh, well, you know,
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: so and so is doing this, and so I'm like,
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: that's great, that's wonderful. Like we as business owners want
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: more business in the community and to support more families,
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: and that kind of thing. It's it's wonderful and it's
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: nice to feel that from other businesses similar to mine.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you've told me that off the air many times.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's nice. It's it's a good feeling, honestly. So
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I'm very grateful. Thank you guys so much for sponsoring
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: this event.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: Anything that we are forgetting again, uh eight three eighty eight.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: If you want to be a vendor, or if you
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: want to be a sponsor, it's not too late, or
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: if you just want to help out that day and volunteer,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: totally right.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: Volunteers were a big, big help last year. A lot
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: of people just randomly showed up and helped red.
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: Thing of shirts that we had to keep running back
• 35:46
  Speaker 6: and forth to get them to give the other people.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: So it was great.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Well, like I said, last year, we weren't quite prepared.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: We thought it was going to be like a normal
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Williamstown event, which I have expected it to be bigger,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I guess, but it was.
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: Our first time, so we didn't really like know what
• 36:06
  Speaker 6: to expect. We did I think that there was going
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: to be that many people because we didn't like.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so this year we're prepared. But if you'd like
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: to help out.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: You know, Phiper, why why do you think there were
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: so many people last year?
• 36:20
  Speaker 6: Well, we hung up a lot of signs. The people
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: that wanted to go, invited a lot of people just
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: posting on Facebook and that's it, a bunch of signs everywhere.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Maybe because it was free.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: One nice to be able to spend time with your
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: family and have some fun and not have to.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: Break the bank. I mean, you go to a fair
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: nowadays and it's like, we don't I know, it's so bad.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: We we love the fair, but we don't really go
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: anymore because it's like five hundred dollars to take a
• 36:58
