2:29
You know him, you love him. You already been the Gazette mail
2:30
and late from time to time. It's Bill Lynch, good morning, Welcome
2:34
to the show, sir. Welcome, love and no those are two words
2:37
I don't get a lot of thanks for having me. We're gonna have a
2:40
little fun today, because that's what we do on Friday Funhouse. We're gonna
2:44
get to know you and you get to play ten questions. Looking forward to
2:47
it. I have studied you study, but you don't know what the questions
2:50
are. But you studied previous shows, all right, So we get to
2:53
know you a little bit later on. So Bill, I appreciate you being
2:55
able to school first to Chris Lawrence now to talk high school football. Chris,
2:59
good morning, welcome to the show, and happy belated birthday. Thank
3:04
you, thank you very much. We were just having a big conversation about
3:08
birthdays and about how when you get to be our age minds tomorrow and when
3:14
we get to be our age, we just don't really care anymore. Yeah,
3:16
I appreciate everybody's sentiments, but I frankly had forgotten about it until my
3:23
kids brought it up. Really, so yeah, I mean, the last
3:25
time that I had a birthday that mattered, I think was when I was
3:29
twelve, because I think there was a cake and some presents. After that,
3:34
it was just like just another day, all right. So high school
3:38
football, we got it for you tonight. You're going out Wayne, heading
3:43
out Wayne tonight to bring you a coverage of Nitro at the Wayne Pioneers.
3:47
Important game for both teams and a big Cardinal Conference matchup. Of course,
3:52
Nitro lost a heartbreaker at Chapmanville last week by one point in the last last
3:57
seconds, so that makes two in a row. They've lost. Wayne's lost
4:00
two in a row as well. Neither team, actually nobody and the Cardinal
4:03
Conference wants to lose three in a row because you might not get an opportunity
4:08
to get that one back down the stretch in the difficult Cardinal conference. So
4:12
that one should be a good matchup tonight and we'll find out what these two
4:15
teams have and who wants it more. That's really what it will come down
4:17
to. So we'll be on the air at six thirty tonight with a seven
4:20
o'clock kickoff. WAA likes to do those seven o'clock kickoffs, and I'm a
4:24
big fan of them as well, since I got to get up early in
4:27
being here tomorrow morning to do West Virginia Outdoors. So, and it's always
4:30
fun going to Wayne. I've I've been there. It is a wonderful place.
4:32
Good folks out there, my kind of people. How are the hot
4:34
dogs concession stands? That's a big thing with me. They're always good.
4:39
I've never found a hot dog. I wouldn't try so stuff I don't know.
4:45
I was. Yeah, the last hot dog I had at a game
4:48
was at Hoover and they had the works. Yeah, they had the full
4:51
hot dog bar there. So yeah, it was. They were very good
4:55
at Hoover, at that brand new state Hoover. Yes, indeed, all
4:58
right, So speaking of us for the outdoors. Well, actually, we'll
5:02
have a couple of guys on from the Greenbrier to mar The Greenbriers actually having
5:06
a hunting and fishing show this weekend, so we'll talk about what they've got
5:11
happening down there. And then afterwards, there was this really interesting story last
5:16
week. You might have heard about it on the news. There was a
5:18
silver alert issued for a man who got lost over in Poconnas County while he
5:25
was squirrel hunting. He was found, He was okay. In fact,
5:29
he wasn't found. He just walked out anyway, why y'all looking for me?
5:32
It had been gone for twenty four hours. But we're going to talk
5:35
to his nephew. Who's gonna who's gonna tell us about that. It was
5:40
pretty harrowing ordeal for the family and for this man as well. And then
5:43
we're going to talk to a group that was part of the search effort there
5:46
that does this anytime there's a there's a big search effort going on, and
5:49
we'll talk about how they put that together. It's a volunteer organization. They
5:54
put together these search and rescue things when we got somebody missing in big country
5:58
like they have over in Poconnas County. So there's a happy end of you
6:00
to the story. So we'll talk about how it. I'll unfold it tomorrow
6:02
morning, and that's at seven o six tomorrow morning. It is, and
6:08
after the high school game that I stick around because we get Fred and Dave
6:11
a high school game night. Getting's caught up on all of the games from
6:13
around to Stay to West Virginia. Yeah, and I'm heading down tomorrow to
6:16
your alma mater to see Virginia Tech take on Marshall. I'm looking forward to
6:19
that. Did you finally found somebody to let you in the tail game?
6:23
I got three or four invites, so I'll be sampling breakfast all over the
6:26
green Light. I love this. He just goes on. He says,
6:28
Hey, I'm coming to the game. Can anybody let me in the tailgate
6:30
party for Virginia Tech? And Marty never let me do every time I go,
6:33
I do that. I've not done that yet for a Morgantown game.
6:35
I'm going to do that next time I go to Morgantown. I just haven't
6:39
been to a Morgantown game that I've not worked in a long time. So
6:43
maybe the next time I go to Morgantown. I'll do the same thing.
6:46
I'll just put out the clarion call that I love to drop by your tailgate
6:49
and eat some of your food if you wouldn't mind. That's what you do,
6:51
all right, Chris. We appreciate it as always. Man, Thanks
6:55
a lot, all right, guess Chris Lawrence again and it's Nitro and Wayne
6:59
Tonight coverage starts at six thirty. The entire crew will be there for That's
7:04
Hannah Gardner from the Canal Charlesty Main Association is here with this week's adot Me
7:08
please pet of the week. Hannah, Good morning, How are you,
7:11
Hannah? And great? How are you? And my guest is Bill Lynch
7:16
from the Gazette Mayo, Bill, Hannah, Hannah, Bill, Hannah,
7:19
how are you? I'm good? How are you am? All right?
7:23
I'm all right. So the pictures posted as it always is Dave Allen Radio
7:26
on Facebook and at Dave A seventy on Twitter. I'm sorry x the artist
7:30
formerly known as Twitter. It's the story of Athena. Athena is a beautiful
7:35
dog. Take it from there, Hannah, and tell us about Athena.
7:39
All right. Athena is one year old and she is a pretty pretty pretty
7:46
like if how'd you guess? She's pretty clearly like some form of pity,
7:54
like a bully or a pity or something. But she is very, very
7:58
sweet. She is not sikes yet, but she will be, and she
8:05
has shown to be housebroken. She is playful with other dogs, so she
8:11
does well and play groups with the other dogs, and she does like the
8:15
more playful dogs. So she does have a good energy level herself. So
8:20
she could definitely use someone who has a yard, or if they don't have
8:24
a yard, taking her to dog tarks or something often, because she just
8:28
loves to run around and play. We consider her a weekend adventure. So
8:33
she loved, like I said, to go like on walks and stuff like
8:39
that. So she would be a good dog with someone who is more of
8:41
an outdoorsy person or even if they're not, just as long as you have
8:46
like a yard to let her get her energy out. But she is all
8:50
around a really sweet girl. She when she first came in, actually she
8:54
had some skin issues, but they were just allergies. She was surrendered to
9:00
us. Dude, you're just not being able to afford the medical care.
9:03
But we did take care of that. It was. It ended up just
9:05
seeing some allergies and she had some skin issues going on that were just very
9:11
clear. So she's looking a lot better now and she's ready for a home
9:16
and we're hoping that she founds a really good one. Well, and again,
9:18
I think it's support that you point out that I guess the previous owners
9:22
did the right thing because they just couldn't afford the medicine for it. But
9:26
I guess she doesn't need the medicine now. Her skin's cleared up from what
9:28
you're telling on Sannah, it's in the process. That's still she still has
9:33
a little bit of, you know, obvious signs of where she has the
9:37
allergies on her skin. It was just really bad allergies that kind of escalated
9:41
over time. But yeah, she definitely looks a lot better now. She's
9:46
definitely growing some of her hair back and stuff, so she is ready for
9:48
a home. Sure, So you mentioned that she likes long walks or likes
9:52
walks. How about her astrological sign? Is she more of a cancer and
9:56
maybe capricorn? The are important people think about those things. I mean,
10:01
how you mess with a dog could be you know, whether you're a water
10:03
sign. Well, she she was born estimated, so we think, and
10:11
so the owner had, you know, told us originally she was born in
10:16
September of twenty twenty two. Okay, so that would mean she's either a
10:20
virgo or a libra depending on what her birthday is. Today could be your
10:26
birthday. Yeah in theory. Well well, and I like he said that
10:31
she the sign of water. No, she's housebroken, so she's not the
10:35
sign of water. Uh. Your guys, you guys folks, Hannah posting
10:41
on your social media that Fix Charleston is going to be opening back up?
10:43
What exactly is Fixed Charleston and how do you work with them? And uh?
10:48
And how do others in the community work with this organization? Tell us
10:52
about them? So Fix Charleston is a low cost well miss clinic. They
10:58
I believe cob third, they're going to start offering stay and newter again for
11:03
cats and dogs. They'll have wellness appointments again, so like basic illness exams.
11:09
So if you're dogs, you know, like coughing really bad sneezing,
11:13
if they've got something going on, you can book an appointment with Fixed Charleston.
11:18
And then we also have radiology stuff now and some other services that you
11:24
could definitely call and ask. We did post a phone number and everything on
11:28
there, so if you have any questions or if you want to make an
11:33
appointment ahead of time, go ahead and do so. We are so happy
11:37
to have that back open. And I saw in your Facebook page that you
11:41
guys got a lot of help out of the shelter this week. Hannah's part
11:43
of the United Ways Day of Caring. That was pretty cool to have some
11:46
people out there volunteering. Yes, so every year United Way will come out
11:52
and they will help us. I know they do that for other places as
11:56
well. I'm pretty sure, but they do always plan on coming to us.
12:00
So sorry, if you hear my dogs in the back, see see
12:03
Bill. Just so you know, that's not at the shelter. This is
12:07
at her house. She doesn't actually go into work until later. This isn't
12:09
Hannah's house. That was what you're hearing. Man. How many how many
12:11
dogs do you have at home? Is that that many? A whole bunch?
12:18
Yes, I do, I have a lot. I have quite I
12:20
have a couple of cats as well. I'll make it work, okay,
12:24
but it is it is nice that the folks come out and volunteer as part
12:28
of the not not only in your place, but all the others as well.
12:31
Before we let you go, what else are you in need of at
12:33
the shelter. You guys are always collecting things like blankets or anything in particular
12:37
that you need. Now. Yes, so I know that we're still needing
12:41
some blankets and sheets. We always are needing those, especially at this time.
12:46
We've been using them a little more than normal and where we've been so,
12:50
you know, at max capacity lately. But we have gotten some animals
12:54
out, so we're really really happy about that. But blankets and sheets,
12:58
I know that we could use some like cat litter trays and some like paper
13:05
cows and stuff like that. So if you have anything that you want to
13:07
bring up in your addict that you you know you just don't use any more
13:11
of them, that would be amazing and we will accept that. Well,
13:15
you got a text here before you, Hannah, because you always do,
13:16
because you're a star. And the text says Dave Salt that the shelters asking
13:20
for peanut butter. I like peanut butter. Kroger has their peanut butter for
13:24
ninety nine cents each when you buy five or more yes, yes, we
13:28
definitely need peanut butter. I know that we've been trying to get some more
13:31
stuff to do enrichment for the dog, so filling cons with peanut butter.
13:37
We have these Frizzee trays that we like smear peanut butter on and hang onto
13:41
their kennels. So we definitely use a lot of peanut butter and if you
13:43
want to bring that up, we actually are in real need of that.
13:46
You can also attract members of the media with that too, with peanut butter
13:50
on a frizzes put it out frizzies out in the yard, and I appreciate
13:56
it very much. I appreciate you being here. We'll talk again soon.
13:58
Thanks a lot. Thank you. So I hand a guard again from the
14:01
Canal Charles, you made association with our adopt me please Pet of the Week
14:05
now again. It's Athena, a very very sweet dog kid and dog friendly
14:11
and cat friendly as well. Housebroken. Her story was that the previous owners
14:15
said that she had a skin condition and that they were able to treat it,
14:18
but they weren't not that they wanted to financial position to be able to
14:22
afford it, and so so they brought her back and the folks at the
14:24
shelter have worked with her. Apparently your skin is cleared up, you know
14:28
for the most part. Not anything that's gonna you know, kill her or
14:31
you or the kids or anything like that. Just you know. But but
14:33
she would be a fantastic dog. And you saw the picture, Bill,
14:37
I mean, that's that's a beautiful dog. It's a cute dog, and
14:39
it'd be a great, you know, a great addition to your household.
14:41
You can kind of hang out with a dog. And it's only what's a
14:43
year old, which means some of this, some of the puppy problem,
14:46
the story kind of going away, right, So a slightly older dog has
14:50
a little time to settle into things. Yeah, it's like when we have
14:52
the older dogs on here, because Hannah's provided us with dogs in the past
14:56
that are just kind of like, you know, this dog is old.
14:58
He's hand eleven years old. He didn't want to do anything to send around
15:01
and watch TV. And I'm like, yeah, dogs, me me too,
15:05
me too. Five eighty Live has brought to you by Pinnacle Consultants,

18:49
the classic Cafe Samino. Now, this is a benefit for Habitat for Humanity.
18:53
Andy Blackwood, who's the CEO of Habitat for Humanity of Putnam County,
18:57
joins us right now. Andy, good morning, welcome to me. Thank
19:00
you so much, thank you for being here. So, Cafe Sabino,
19:03
I mentioned earlier one of the more iconic eateries in West Virginia, which sadly
19:07
has gone away, but you folks are bringing it back into Charleston for one
19:11
night Tuesday, October. The tenth starts at six at the Elk River Atrium
19:15
at the Coliseum and Convention Center. That's right, yeah, Tim and Melody,
19:19
the original owners and chefs at Cafe Semino, will be back with us,
19:26
as well as their executive chef Oscar, preparing a great selection from their
19:32
traditional menu. And I'm looking at that menu because Bill and I are food
19:36
guys. This is what we do. So got your salon and bread.
19:41
Of course, they're famous Samino, meatballs, braschetta, mushroom, fed up,
19:45
pasta, shrimp scampy, chicken parmesan, and desserts by Chef Todd Jones
19:51
of Center Plate. This is the good stuff, it is. And you
19:52
know the nice thing is you don't have to pick just one. You can
19:57
sample everything that's air, get full plates everything and just gonna you know,
20:03
roll out of the place uff you're done. Yes you can. I don't

know if Uber offers a rolling like a wheelbarrel service or not to bring like

24:48
Bill using these words, I don't know the fifth they need. Good morning,
24:53
Bill, how are you? Good morning. I'm glad to be here.
24:56
Nice to talk to you, and prays. There is nothing like a
24:59
homecoming, but not just the game, but everything that goes along with it.
25:03
While all you got going on, Yeah, Dave, it's it's really
25:07
an exciting time here in our campus, in institute, you know. Homecoming
25:11
kicked off yesterday. We had the coronation of our Queen, our King and
25:15
our Queen. We also had our President's Circle reception where we recognize some of
25:19
our most generous donors. And today we have our ROTC Hall of Fame induction.
25:26
We'll have a Greek cookout, our volleyball game against Willing University, and
25:32
we'll also have an alumni dinner tonight and tomorrow. And tomorrow, which is
25:36
a big day, we'll have a parade at noon which we invite all members
25:40
of the community to come out and join us. Will have a game at
25:42
six pm against Glenville State University, which will be followed by fireworks and throughout
25:48
the day, Dave. On our campus, we're going to have a family
25:51
fund zone, so there'll be a lot of things to do for families.
25:55
So please we invite all members of the community to come out to our campus
25:59
and celebrate home with us. And I would imagine all these family things that
26:02
you're talking about, President, all those are free to the public, right,
26:06
Yes they are. So I mean you're looking for something into weather.
26:08
I mean, President Kge, you couldn't ask for better weather. I mean,
26:11
this weather's going to be fantastic. It's actually going to be a little
26:15
bit cooler tomorrow. What I understand that it is today and I heard this
26:18
morning and temperature gonna be around seventy for a high tomorrow, perfect fault.
26:22
And tomorrow is officially, I think the first day of fall. I think
26:23
it's like two fifty am. I think is when it is today. Yeah,
26:29
so there you go. So you couldn't ask for better. It's gonna
26:30
be great weather, President. Yeah, it's just special order just for our
26:33
homecoming. You got you got to connections and you know, President, all
26:41
all the homecomings, doesn't that are special. But I've been told by people
26:45
that attend West Virginia State, that you guys really do it up right there,
26:49
and that they're because of the history of West Virginia State that you it
26:55
just it kind of takes it to another level. And as far as the
26:59
college is in institutions of higher learning in West Virginia goes I don't know if
27:03
there's anybody I'm a marshal guy, but I don't know if there's anybody in
27:07
the state that is more proud of their of their campus and their school and
27:11
their time there. What the alumni of West Virginia State are. You are
27:15
absolutely right, Dave. And look what makes us so special here at West
27:19
Virginia State University is that when you come and become part of the West Virginia
27:25
State University community, you become a part of a family. And we really
27:30
take a great pride in that we are a small community where everybody knows your
27:34
name. And I I just marvel when I talk to our alumni when they
27:38
come back on campus because they have so many fond memories that took place on
27:44
this campus and those memories are are deeply embedded in our history, in our
27:48
heritage. So it is homecoming is a very special special time for us at
27:52
the university, and again I invite all members of the community to come out
27:56
and join in with us in this very very special occasion for us here at
28:02
West Virginia State. Well, President Cage, it's always a pleasure to have
28:07

a cool tone I went a couple of years ago. It's if you even
34:15
have a remote interest in, like if you were like a frustrated band geek
34:20
like I was from high school. I was terrible. I used to I
34:23
was a baritone. They let me march with its to basically helped fill out
34:27
the ranks. I didn't play. I just held the thing. It just
34:30
kind of cradled this baritone. It's like a music video basically, it was.
34:32
That was what I did, right, But you know, I get
34:35
the whole idea of how hard the kids. Yeah, and there's a lot
34:38
of energy there. It's a lot of fun, all right. So let's
34:42
talk about Bill Lynch. Now, where are you? Where are you from?
34:45
Originally? Originally I grew up in Parisburg, Virginia, which most of
34:49
you, if you think about it really carefully, is also known as the
34:52
wedding capital of West Virginia. It was the first county seat across the board.
34:54
Yeah, that was a thing. It was. That was the thing.
34:57
Most of my sister's marriage just took place there because I mean, no
35:00
really, I mean back in the day, you could cross over the border
35:04
and go to like, you know, paris Burg, Grundy, and I
35:07
think there was a couple of other places that that's what people used to do
35:10
because you didn't have I don't know whether it's still a thing or not,
35:14
but you didn't have to There wasn't like a waiting period you could just go
35:16
and it's one day and you were sure you go. You'd go to the
35:21
municipal building that judge and waves wand at you, and then you go off
35:23
the street to Papa's Pizza. You can get a slice and because nothing says
35:27
romance like anchovies, Nothing says romance like a slice with anchovies on it.
35:30
Absolutely. So, now do you have you've done some radio, haven't you?
35:36
Off and on? I've been in and out of radio for years.
35:37
Okay, all right, well now you're back in its day. So so
35:42
how did you end up here? A series of bad marriages? Okay,
35:45
all right? Good? Have you met my sister? Yeah? Well,
35:50
no, I moved up here in two thousand and three. Actually, I
35:52
followed a job at west Real Public Broadcasting. I had had an ex wife
35:58
and some kids, and the she'd moved up to the Charleston area from back
36:00
from Baltimore, and I wasn't in Baltimore. She moved to Baltimore and then
36:05
moved back and then moved up to here from where I was living. And
36:07
so I moved to Charleston and took a job there and I've been here ever
36:10
since. And so you write this, you're a writer for the Gazette mail
36:14
yep, and you do other things or I do everything. Really, everybody's
36:21
got two and three and four jobs. I mean, people ask me what
36:23
I had. Somebody yesterday said, asked me what I did for a living.
36:27
I said, well, what time of day is it, and I'll
36:29
tell you what job I have at that particular time. Right now, I'm
36:30
nine to ten. I'm a radio gap right right, So you know I
36:34
actually had kind of a day job these days. Uh with West Appolic Broadcasting
36:37
nine. I produced show called Inside Appalachia Public Affairs Sunday morning show. You
36:42
if you're into that stuff, we're on. But so you know Adam Harris,
36:45
I do know Adam. He's I can't stand at him. Was one
36:51
of my best friends. He's actually been a co host here before I can
36:52
see it. He's you know, he's an ash with the stuff. He's
36:54
been doing Mountain Stage almost as long as I've been in Charleston, really every
37:00
when he was when he was an intern back there and was running backstage making
37:02
sure people got to the airport. Now he used to head gather. Now
37:06
he's in charge with all the power and now he's a wrestling announcer too,
37:08
traveling all of the country announcer for ages. He loves that stuff. Yeah,
37:13
he's fantastic at it too. So how did you get hooked up with
37:16
the gazette mail and writing? Writing your stuff that you do for the paper
37:19
that's two stories? Is there a wife involved in this one thing? There
37:22
isn't? Okay? So uh? For for years, for a couple of
37:27
years, I was writing for Graffiti back when it was something different than it
37:30
is, and I wrote mostly feature stories kind of stuff when I do now,
37:34
but they were a little more on the outside. I wrote about witchcraft
37:37
school. I wrote about dwarf wrestling. I wrote about a retired adult film
37:43
star who had relocated the area. She was really she was really into poker
37:46
machines. Uh so, so I did some still can't. You can't make
37:51
this stuff up? I didn't. Do. You still have her number?
37:52
Because I'm looking for Friday co host. I'll see if I can find her.
37:55
Okay, So mark that down, Jeff, We're gonna have a a
38:00
former adult film star who as a poker machine addict as a guest host.
38:04
All right on Friday. Find out that was about twenty years ago. I
38:06
don't know where she is now. But I was writing for a little different
38:08
znes and doing all kinds of like really strange overnight stuff, and I reached
38:14
out to the Gazette and I wrote something for them, and they Doug and
38:17
Brogno, who was the features editor of the guy who was in charge the
38:20
entertainment section, wrote back and said, so, I need somebody to cover
38:22
local music and stuff. Can you do that? I've I've been in town
38:27
for a month. So I said yes. I lied, completely lied,
38:31
totally lied. So what I did was I just looked around and talked.
38:35
It turned out I was also at night working in books a million and the
38:37
guy who was running the register was a guy named Patrick, and Patrick was
38:42
in a band called Liquid Harvest. And I said, you're in a band.
38:44
He's like, I am. I said, how about some free press.
38:46
He says, let's have lunch. So he got his guys together.
38:50
I sat down a table, I listened to them while they were talking about
38:53
the band, and turned it in And that was my first article. And
38:57
then Doug said, can you do it again? And so I did it
39:00
again and again. Yeah, And that's how that's how that started. And
39:04
then after a few years after several years. So twenty fifteen, at the
39:09
end of that year, I had a really kind of rough season. I
39:14
broke up with my girlfriend. We've been together for about four or five years,
39:19
and going into the holidays, and I was just like this really kind
39:22
of a shell of human being. I was sitting around the house eating lots
39:25
and lots of Turkey Hill chocolate and peanut butter ice cream and watching endless episodes
39:30
of the Office. Okay, the boss was trying to get me to come
39:34
to a Christmas party. Uh, she was having in her house. It
39:38
was for the for the office. You needed people to show up at.
39:40
Getting people to a Christmas party at the boss's house is a little bit difficulty,
39:45
and I was trying to you know, you're frown upon you going through
39:47
their medicine cabinet. Don't ask me how you do and especially gets really weird
39:51
when the when the boss is carpets white, and you're like, it's a
39:53
bad idea. So I was like, you know, really kind of down
39:57
on the dumps and was in a rut. I didn't want to do this
39:59
thing. I got random email from an animal rights group in the United Kingdom.
40:05
You may be the most interesting man in the world. I doubt it.
40:07
But the thing is so they what they were doing was they were trying
40:09
to get people with the first year, with the you know, New Year's
40:13
resolutions, to give up eating meat for the month of January, to be
40:16
a vegan for January. I can't say the word they call it. It
40:20
was like, no, it's it sounds bad. It just sounds bad.
40:23
But basically, I wanted you to be a vegan for a month, try
40:27
it out, see if you liked it. Right about it? And my
40:29
first response was no, you silly hippie, I'm not giving up. They
40:32
again, Yeah, But then I sat down and thought about I said,
40:35
do I know anything about vegans? And honestly I did. Mostly you see
40:37
them on TV. Their skulls, their hypocrites, their jerks there. You
40:42
know, they're comedy. But I thought, is that really true? And
40:45
I was like maybe not. January is really slow in the features department because
40:49
it's not a whole lot going on. So I asked my boss and said,
40:51
hey, what if I did this thing? And she says, well,
40:53
that's one article. I said, wait, wait, what if I
40:54
did this every week for a month? And she's like, that's a little
40:59
better. I thought, what if I did it for a year. She's
41:01
like, no one's going to read about whether you give up eat meat for
41:05
a year. And I said, what if I found something new each and
41:07
every month, something I didn't know much about, and then I could spend
41:12
a month learning about it. I could kind of get my hands into it.
41:14
I could try to, you know, fumble my way through. It'd
41:15
be a very personal experience and we'll see what happens. And she goes,
41:20
Bill when you're running out of topics, the things you don't know about,
41:22
it said, I could do this for life, and really I kind of
41:24
have. Every month it's something different. I mean last month when I first
41:29
come went, the column was on kind of on hiatus for about eight months.
41:32
I picked it back up and I went did the distance run. And
41:37
I had run the distance run, but I'd never went with a group.
41:38
I'd never found myself a little tribe of people who would who would help me
41:43
get over the hump to get to work. I mean to do this thing,
41:46
and every month it's been. This month, I'm doing Brazilian jiu jitsu,
41:51
which is terrifying. It is terrifying, but I mean, I didn't
41:54
even know how to tie the belt. But it's it's been fun. I
41:59
learned ab how to bake bake pies and now now you're talking my language,
42:02
right, can bake pies? I did stand up comedy. I didn't and
42:07
I wasn't terrible at I can see that I've done gardening. I tried doing
42:10
a month of unplugging from social media that did not work. Also tried getting
42:15
plugging a lay from electricity, which is really a bad time to do that
42:19
when sleep out in your yard when it's the when cicadas come back into season.
42:23
So my yard was like and I couldn't have enough people sleeping outside,
42:28
and Charleston, we need to add to it and come on, come on,
42:30
well to do it for fun? It wasn't fun. I'm terrible.
42:34
It can't think so rough in it to me is staying in a hotel with
42:37
an outdoor accent. That's rough for days, I could say. So,
42:42
so you're chronicle though this health journey. I mean it started off as something
42:45
that you were doing for for the job, you know, but but this
42:50
is something that you actually live now because you don't run long distance runs and
42:53
eat quarter pounders every day. I mean, so how difficult and how have
42:58
you? Because I know and talking to you and actually reading your stuff that
43:00
you are a lover of food and beverages. How do you how do you
43:04
reconcile that? How how do you make that work? Because you have to?
43:07
Well? All right, So a few years ago I had a really
43:12
bad kind of I had a scare. I was on hypertension medicine. I
43:15
was they had just put me on stuff for cholesterol, and then I had
43:19
a bad scan with my kidneys and I was like what what? And I
43:22
was like not, I didn't I'm not that old. I thought, my
43:25
god, this is this is scary. So I freaked out and put myself
43:30
onto a diet. I got a phone app that lets me track my food.
43:34
It's the dullest way to lose weight, honestly, but it works.
43:37
And then after I lost a few pounds, I needed something to deal with
43:42
you know, pressure and stress and you know this and not just sitting in
43:45
a desk all day. I started kind of getting into exercise. So I
43:47
joined a CrossFit gym. It was was one of my one month projects.
43:51
Because you know the cult of CrossFit, it's they're crazy, right, I
43:55
said, let me let me embrace the crazy, which I have. I've
43:58
still embraced the crazy. I'm still doing it. So I did that,
44:01
and then to kind of leverage myself to keep going, I started looking for
44:05
things to give me an excuse to It's not enough to be healthy, you
44:08
need I need an excuse to do something. So I signed up for a
44:12
thirteen mile Spartan race which those was called it called a Beast and then I
44:17
trained like like I was rocky. I went, I did the CrossFit,
44:22
I started running on the boulevard. I was doing weights. I was doing
44:24
way too much, but I was watching what I ate. The pounds just
44:29
disappeared. So I went from two hundred and sixty nine pounds to where I
44:31
currently and I'm at one hundred and eighty two. It's incredible and I've maintained
44:37
that now since uh twenty nineteen. That's awesome. I mean, it's that
44:42
in congratulations on that tech says Marty Smith from ESPN is also from Parisburg,
44:46
Virginia. Their accents are very different. Yeah, I'm a big fan of
44:51
of Marty Smith and the gas that are on the SEC network. They're fantastic.
44:57
So my old man was an English teacher again. All right, I'm
45:00

45:01

47:49
Bill Lynch is here, all right, tell us the story. What's
47:51
the deal with the Captain America sharts fan? Okay? The T shirts started
47:53
was kind of a kind of a Lucky T shirt thing. I've always had
47:55
a Lucky T shirt, but it changes from generation to generation. One of
47:59
them was like had like skulls on it one time when it was a bowling
48:01
shirt. So a couple of years ago at a as a Christmas gift,
48:05
my sister sent me a Captain America T shirt and I would wear these things
48:07
on Thursdays, which were when my my section came out, when it was
48:10
the most nerve wracking, when things would go wrong. If anything bad was
48:14
gonna happen, it was gonna happen on Thursday. So it became Captain America
48:16
T shirt Day because I needed it. When they started this column, they
48:20
wanted to take my picture. Kay. I was horrified at the idea of
48:23
my picture being in the paper because I was I was as I was,
48:28
but they needed, we needed the art. I would wear the T shirt
48:30
as a security blankets, a Lucky T shirt, and then and it kind
48:35
of just took off from it. It took off until I was people saw
48:37
me and these things all the time, and it became kind of like my
48:39
calling so many how many do you have? Sixteen? I was gonna say,
48:42
please, don't say one, sixteen sixteen out them? All right,
48:45
So that's the story about, all right, I gotta get to ten questions,
48:46
because all right, so there's ten questions. You're about to be asked
48:50
a total of ten random questions. You don't do, not know what they
48:52
are. You're not seeing them prior to this, you have no knowledge of
48:54
them. For those of you as always listening at home, in the car,
48:57
at work, no wagering. Okay, are you ready? Ye?
49:00
All right? If you weren't known for wearing your Captain America T shirts,
49:05
what other kind of shirts might you be known for? Or what else would
49:07
be your trademarker? Perrel We kind of already touched on that. I would
49:09
say, this denim jacket and me rocking this whole Canadian tuxedo thing. All
49:14
right, your favorite stooge Mo Larry, Curly Shamperor, Curly Joe. Oh
49:17
Mo, for sure. The one thing that absolutely totally freaks you out and
49:22
can send you into hysterics. Tall heights. Still, I'm still working on
49:28
heights. Okay, don't ever put what on your hamburger meat apparently, but
49:36
that was a long time. Okay, I'm gonna say catch up. Really,
49:39
I'm gonna catch up. Guy a man. You've interviewed some pretty famous
49:44
people as they've rolled through the Canal Valley for concerts and whatnot. If you
49:47
want to say this, you can. But if you don't, that's fine.
49:50
Who was the one that was a complete jerk and you never want to
49:53
talk to again? Oh wow? If you can't, I can't. Okay.
50:00
If you're gonna incriminate yourself, I don't want you to do in the
50:04
news lately. So all right, all right, all right, that's good.
50:06
I'll give you a pass on that one. As a kid, your
50:07
favorite TV show super Friends. It's an open bar. What are you going
50:14
for? The high end bourbon? Actually? Because I can't afford it.
50:16
Okay, let's just take the bottle in your denim. Your favorite teacher's name,
50:22
Uh, missus Yelton. She was an English teacher. Of all my
50:25
friends or family, this is you talking. If I'm in trouble, who
50:29
is the least likely to come get me out of jail? Uh? Probably
50:32
my brother? Al okay, can't. If you can't swing bail, there's
50:37
no way, all right. Final one, name the one piece of clothing
50:40
or apparel that you just can't part with? Other than Captain American T shirts
50:45
and denim jackets. What's the one that you one? Maybe that you've held
50:47
on to forever. Maybe it doesn't even fit any more, specially since you're
50:51
weight loss. You just can't get rid of it, no matter what.
50:52
My belt buckles collect. I'm a belt buckle collector and I actually have I
50:59
look for belt buckle like a rodeo guy. But well some of them not
51:02
quite. This one's this one right here? Radio Bill? You know that,
51:06
right? I know, I know. I'm always thinking, No,
51:07
I collect belt buck was I have a lot of brass heavy belt buckles.
51:10
Are just curious, all right? I like them. You have completed ten
51:15
questions. You know, here's a moist talent. Good to go? All
51:19
right? So I mentioned earlier about your interviews you've done and I've got to
51:22
wrap it up with this to people that rolled through the Try State. And
51:23
I was, you know, kind of baiting you a little bit there.
51:27
But who was one of the ones that you really enjoyed talking to? Because
51:29
you're you're the interview guy. When these musicians come through, they always talk
51:31
to you, and it's in the paper. There was one that you really
51:35
enjoyed or maybe as we determined wrestling, as we marked out over, who
51:37
did you mark out over? Okay? Well, actually two. One was
51:40
George Carlin. He gave me thirty minutes and the ex he canceled his show
51:44
because he was sick. But I got I got thirty minutes, which is
51:46
a thirty minutes more than Charleston got, and we talked about all everything.
51:50
It's comedy, politics, It was beautiful. I would have just been like
51:54
a kid, and I mean just it's like holding my breath the ENTI okay,
51:58
So George Carlin was one. Mark Cambell Luke Skywalker, I'm a big
52:00
Star Wars not the last of the prequel trilogies. I managed to convince him
52:06
to talk to me about Star Wars and he told me great stories. I
52:08
loved it, all right. I can't imagine talking to George Carlin. I
52:10
mean I've met some of a few of They say, don't meet your heroes.
52:14
I've met a few of them and they were all really cool. But
52:16
if I'm met Carlin, I mean, I just I'd be like I am.
52:21
It's been fun, Bills and maybe you could do a feature on the
52:23
show. Sure they've been right, all right, you get that. A
52:28
