Things That Must Go for November 20th, 2024 · The Radio From Hell Show - Best Of

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Things that must go on.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: The radio, things that are bugging you, things that you
• 0:10
  can't stand any more. You need to have them leave
• 0:13
  your life. Things that must go. And maybe they're just
• 0:16
  minor irritants, but irritants nonetheless, if you send them to
• 0:20
  us via email, you put Musco on the subject line,
• 0:25
  and then you put the thing that's bugging you in
• 0:26
  the subject or in the body of the email. You
• 0:29
  send it to Radio from Hell at X ninety six
• 0:30
  dot com. Might make you feel better. And sometimes these
• 0:33
  things magically disappear from your life, these things that must go.
• 0:37
  I'll start this time. This is sort of a I
• 0:39
  got one of my own that's kind of a minor thing.
• 0:41
  There's this labeling that I was reading yesterday on a
• 0:45
  bottle of a tin cup rye bourbon. And it's a
• 0:50
  perfectly fine tasting your rye bourbon. But here's what the
• 0:54
  label said, to Tincup bourbon, to celebrate the minors of
• 0:59
  tin Up, Colorado and the spirit of the Old West.
• 1:03
  Cut to proof with pure Rocky Mountain spring water distilled
• 1:07
  in Indiana. Just okay, if you have to put that
• 1:14
  it was distilled in Indiana legally somewhere. Don't put it
• 1:18
  right after that.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: They probably have to right after that.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Whole description of how it's all about.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Colorado, very very specific on alcohol labeling, and I bet
• 1:28
  they have to do it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Though, let's see this one says my must go is
• 1:32
  a bit likely, so I apologize. My thing that must
• 1:34
  go is the legislature that passed House Bill four fifteen
• 1:37
  without thinking about the music and the arts programs in
• 1:41
  high schools. I have two boys, a senior and a sophomore,
• 1:44
  that have participated in marching band and found safety within
• 1:48
  that group. It has been so good for both of
• 1:51
  their mental health and well being and allowing them to
• 1:54
  survive high school starting in twenty twenty five, I guess
• 1:57
  this House Bill four fifteen eliminate school fees. As the
• 2:02
  bill currently reads, it applies to all classes and activities
• 2:06
  for which students receive a grade. The impact of that
• 2:09
  will be significant. Without fees, schools will have to rethink
• 2:13
  their entire budgets and triage to support what they can,
• 2:17
  but there's no way that they'll be able to fund everything.
• 2:20
  Almost the entire budget for band programs comes from student fees.
• 2:24
  If the House Bill four to fifteen is not amended
• 2:26
  or repealed, marching band in Utah will not exist in
• 2:30
  twenty twenty five. Please make this go away. One of
• 2:33
  merry Manny angry band parents. Let's see this one says
• 2:38
  doctors need to quit asking for all of the meds
• 2:41
  that one takes to be listed. It's always screwed up.
• 2:44
  It always takes an enormous amount of time to constantly
• 2:47
  fix the errors. If it's so important to know, why
• 2:50
  is it always screwed up? Besides, why is it important
• 2:53
  to know that I'm still taking laxatives when I'm getting
• 2:55
  an eye exam?
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: We need to know?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: And finally, this one work toilets that take three flushes
• 3:03
  to clear up your mess. It's just gross. The plume
• 3:07
  of debris that has come out of every single flush,
• 3:10
  that's so gross. And restaurants that have the same toilets
• 3:14
  that's also gross. Thank you Dawson, Eric.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Fecal plume all right? This one from Tony. It was
• 3:24
  Veterans Day earlier this week, and I took advantage of
• 3:27
  what was offered to me a free dinner at a
• 3:29
  steakhouse since I served in the Navy years ago. I
• 3:33
  got calm to nice sir llin with two sides of
• 3:35
  a salad and mushroom. But I wanted heel my meal
• 3:39
  to be healthier, so I added a side of sweet peas.
• 3:44
  My thing that must go is knowing that freedom isn't free,
• 3:47
  but being charged extra for the peas because they apparently
• 3:52
  come at a cost.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: So thank you for letting me listen.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: PS, it was an extra two dollars and fourteen cents.
• 3:58
  But anyway, let's see this one from U Heather from
• 4:04
  beeful the fullest of bounties, Dear Lords and lady. A
• 4:09
  few months ago I send in my two hundred thousand
• 4:12
  dollars in debt as a thing that must go. Today
• 4:15
  I learned my application for total permanent disability discharge has
• 4:19
  been approved and my forty K student loan debt is
• 4:22
  going away.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: Oh see it works.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Thank you for working your magic. I will sleep well tonight.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Nice. PS.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: Student loan borrowers, you may be eligible for a loan
• 4:30
  discharge if you've been diagnosed with a physical or intellectual
• 4:33
  disability that impacts your ability to work full time. Look
• 4:35
  it up and apply for discharge before the next administration
• 4:39
  takes the program away. All right? And this one from Paulette.
• 4:44
  Things that must go when there are plants in the
• 4:48
  way of my line of sight when trying to turn
• 4:50
  into traffic. I'm all for having greenery in the medians
• 4:54
  and park strips, but I wish they wouldn't plant things
• 4:56
  that obstruct my view. It seems like something that should
• 4:59
  be taken into consideration. That's from Paul Ett Gina.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: Let's see stores that put stickers on the front of books.
• 5:07
  It ruins the book. Don't do this, and also not
• 5:09
  being able to purchase a book without the actors on
• 5:12
  the cover because it's now a movie. And parents who
• 5:15
  won't pull up at school pickup line, Sally can walk
• 5:18
  an extra twenty feet. I promise she'll be okay. Pull up.
• 5:21
  Signed a listener since nineteen ninety nine. This is from
• 5:26
  an exhausted teacher. Please don't use my name. Being forced
• 5:31
  to learn how to be a trauma nurse in the
• 5:33
  event of a school shooting must go. Jeez, stop the
• 5:36
  bleed is the newest training forced upon public school teachers
• 5:40
  in my district. Instead of spending money to make school safe,
• 5:43
  they're spending money forcing us to take online and in
• 5:46
  person training on how to temporarily treat gunshot wounds, how
• 5:50
  to stuff the gun shot hole with gauze, how to
• 5:52
  use a tourniquet in the event of a emergency. They're
• 5:55
  even purchasing a kit to be stored in each classroom.
• 5:59
  Mind you, this is the same district that can't afford
• 6:01
  the cartridge for the ancient printer in my classroom. So
• 6:04
  every time I need to print something, I have to
• 6:06
  leave my class of thirty two fourth grade students alone
• 6:08
  so I can run across the school to another hallway
• 6:11
  to retrieve a piece of paper I have to print.
• 6:14
  In case you're wondering, no, I did not go to
• 6:16
  college to be a nurse, nor am I in training
• 6:18
  to be a short distance track runner. Also, the adage
• 6:21
  that teachers are so lucky to have summer off must go.
• 6:23
  We don't get summer off with pay. We take a
• 6:26
  pay cut each month of the school year if we
• 6:28
  choose to or in order to receive a paycheck during
• 6:31
  the summer. Any who, thanks for letting me listen. Pray
• 6:34
  for us to make it to retirement. Sincerely, exhausted teachers, counselors, EMTs,
• 6:38
  and everything else everywhere.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Thanks that must go on the radio
