  Speaker 1: It's three things you need to know with the Alabama Show.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Alabama football is going on this weekend. The Crimson Tide
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: will play Kentucky at 2.30 tomorrow, and then Auburn will
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: play Southern Miss at 6.45 tomorrow. So if you want
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: to watch the football, that's all the times. Cindy Lauper
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: is going to perform tonight in Disney Entertainment's 9-11 Tribute
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Live from Lower Manhattan. That's going to be at 7 p.m.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: You can watch across ABC, Disney +, Hulu, National Geographic,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: and any ABC-owned television stations. That'll start tonight at 7 p.m.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Apple just dropped the iPhone Duo. Me and producer Blake
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: were looking at it yesterday. It's the first foldable smartphone
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: with a 7.6 inch internal display and an external display.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: I do like it that it has three separate screens
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: that all can connect.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: That's really cool. It's a cool design.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: So what it looks like when you, if it's folded
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: and you open it, the inside is a big screen.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: And then when you close it shut, there's one small
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: screen on the outside and It starts at $ 2, 000 if
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: you would like to preorder it. It starts October 16th. Also,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: they announced the iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max, AirPods 5,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: and updated Apple Watch model. So if it's time to
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: update your Apple gear, now's the time to do it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: That is three things you need to know. More at thealabamashow.com.

• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Rob. What's your issue for Ask Alabama?
• 5:35
  Speaker 9: My wife wants a fourth child and I don't.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, no. That's why we do Ask Alabama. If you
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: ever have an issue, call the show 833-501-BAMA and we
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: do our best to help. Or maybe somebody listening to
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: the show has been through this and can give you
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: some advice. Why does your wife want another kid and
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: you don't? What's going on?
• 5:54
  Speaker 9: We've been married for 15 years and we have three
• 5:57
  Speaker 9: daughters already. When we got married, I was 21 and
• 6:00
  Speaker 9: really wasn't ready to have kids that young. But my
• 6:03
  Speaker 9: wife wanted to have kids, so we did.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Okay. How old are your daughters?
• 6:07
  Speaker 9: They're teenagers and life is getting much easier because they'll
• 6:10
  Speaker 9: be out of the house in.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Like the next 10 years.
• 6:13
  Speaker 9: And my wife is saying she wants to have one
• 6:16
  Speaker 9: more baby before it's too late.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: What did you say when she said she wanted to
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: have another baby?
• 6:21
  Speaker 9: I told her I'm done having children and she's threatening
• 6:24
  Speaker 9: to get a donor and have a baby without me.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: So she's saying that she'll go to one of those
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: clinics and get pregnant and have a baby without you anyway. Oh,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: that's that's tough.
• 6:34
  Speaker 9: I'm honestly at a loss, and I have no idea
• 6:37
  Speaker 9: how to even handle this.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Let's see if we can get some advice for you,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: because obviously if one person wants a baby and the
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: other one doesn't, that's 18 years of that kid's life
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: that you're committed to. Has anybody ever been through this?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Call the show, 833-501-BAMA is the number. What should Rob
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: do since his wife wants a baby and he does not?
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: And have you ever gone through something like that? That's 833-501-2262.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: The Alabama Show on demand. Free on the iHeartRadio app.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Rob and his wife have been married for 15 years.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: His wife wants to have a baby. He does not.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: They already have two teenage daughters, and Rob has no
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: idea what to do because she said she'll go get
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: a donor and have a baby anyway. 833-501-BAMA is the
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: number if you've ever been through anything like this. Good morning.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Who's this?
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: This is your favorite.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Steven. Steven, where are you calling from? Yes. Good morning.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Where are you calling from?
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: The University of Alabama right now.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Roll Tide. What's going on?
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: Roll Tide.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Just kids going back to school.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Are you glad?
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Speaking of kids.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: All right. Tell me what Rob should do where his
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: wife wants a baby and he doesn't.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: Well, Rob needs to see if she will go to counseling.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: If she won't do that, he needs to cut her loose.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: Because that's too much.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, and her saying she's going to go have
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: one without him, that's just so disrespectful.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: It's a lifelong commitment. Having a kid is a lifelong commitment.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Tell him to angle it.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: Tell him this.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Talk to her like he wants to give the child
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: they have the best life possible when you have another
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: child you have to divide that.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Time oh yeah manipulator that's great advice yeah manipulation is
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: true i know that is steven that i mean that
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: is good advice because they do already have teenage daughters
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: and they would probably be like why are y'all having
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: a baby right now I am curious.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: What the kids think.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: And they're going to suffer financially because you can't give
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: everyone everything. The fewer you have, the more you've got
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: to give those. Plus, we've got too many people on Earth.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: What's wrong with her?
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: That's a whole other rabbit hole. We ain't going down.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: I know. You have a good one.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Love you. Love you, too.
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: Bye. Bye.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: It's three things you need to know with the Alabama Show.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: There's a $ 30 million Alabama golf house that just break. Well,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: it's about to break ground in Irondale this November. The
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Alabama Golf Foundation just purchased 80 acres next to Pine
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Tree Golf and Country Club to build Golf House Alabama.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: It's a hub that's going to house the state's golf organizations. Also,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: a new Alabama Golf Hall of Fame construction is expected
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: to start in November. So if you have somebody in
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: your life that loves golf, tell them about this. If
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: you have an iPhone, there is a secret setting that
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: could save your life. It is a built-in crash detection
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: feature on iPhone 14 and newer models, and it can
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: automatically call 911 if you're in a severe car accident
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: and cannot reach your phone. It, like, knows when you've crashed.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Your Apple Watch can also do that. You can turn
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: the setting off, but I would keep it on because that's,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: you know, it could save your life. Harry Styles just
• 9:48

• 11:21
  Speaker 1: The Alabama Show, on demand, free on the iHeartRadio app.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: It's really weird when you're a radio host to talk
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: about serious stuff when we do the show like we
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: do because we do a lot of entertainment. We like
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: to laugh and play and have fun.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but there's also times to be serious. It is
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: just a different mode that we have to get into.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: By the way, thank you for listening to The Alabama Show.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I'm Alabama with Producer Blake. Because we've been talking this
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: morning about today's the 25th anniversary of 9-11. And our
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: boss yesterday was like, are y'all going to talk about
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: it on the show? And at first I was like, no,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: because we could entertain or whatever. But he was like,
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: why don't you ask Producer Blake? And I did not
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: even think of this because Producer Blake and I have
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: an age gap. Like when 9-11 happened, I was in
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: high school. I was in 11th grade and I was
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: in my chemistry class. And you were, how old were you, two?
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was two or three, and I was at
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: my grandparents' house during the time, yeah.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd have been two because you're 27 now.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you were two. I was turning three that month, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: So, um.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Our boss brought up a really good point because I
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: remember it. But what were you taught in school about 9-11?
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Because you were a baby when it happened. So what
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: did you learn when you were in high school about it?
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: So we just go over the like photo evidence of it.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: We would go over the like importance of what the
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: political climate was of the time. Like what was going
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: on overseas, who the president was, why we were assuming
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: who did it.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Stuff like that. So what was crazy for us, I
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: was in 11th grade and we were in my chemistry class.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: And it was like, I remember it being like 9 a.m.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: in the morning. So it was the second class of
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: the day. And they were like, somebody came into our
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: classroom and told our teacher to turn the news on.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: So we turned the news on and we're watching. And
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: one plane had already hit the Twin Towers. But as
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: we're watching the news live, all of a sudden, a
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: second plane comes in and hits. And we're all like, oh. Oh,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: my God. What's that? That was when we realized that
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: this was not just a one accident with one plane,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: that it was a terrorist attack. And then then I
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: think a little bit after that, there was a plane
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: going towards the Pentagon. And it was definitely like that
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: was kind of when at school we were all freaking
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: out going, what is happening? Is this going to happen
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: all over the country? Are we going to get are
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: we going to get, you know, something to happen where
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: we're at at schools. It was, it was really freaky.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: I couldn't imagine being old enough to witness what was
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: going on and being calm.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: Like that's a, that's a big deal. That's huge.
• 14:04

• 15:27
  Speaker 6: on here in the United States. You guys need to
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: turn your radio on or something. And he went and
• 15:32

• 15:34
  Speaker 6: we were all allowed to go in there periodically and
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: watch it.
• 15:38

• 15:49

• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Where were you? What was going on in your life
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: that day?
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: So I was in fourth grade, and I remember it
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: very vividly. We were in the homeroom, and they came in.
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: We turned the news on. We were on lockdown. It
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: was crazy. And my mom was freaking out.
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: She came and checked us out.
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: Of school because.
• 17:07
  Speaker 8: My dad at the time was in the military, and
• 17:10
  Speaker 8: there was noise of threat of them coming to Atlanta
• 17:18
  Speaker 8: and doing something in Atlanta.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: It was scary. And me being— I think I was like—
• 17:25
  Speaker 8: Nine or 10. I don't know.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: I don't remember.
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: It was it was weird, but it was scary because
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: when I heard like my dad coming in, I was like, oh, God.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: What's happening? I can't imagine being the teachers. Like, if
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: there's a teacher listening to the show that was a
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: teacher then, because all the teachers, I'm sure, like, all
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, they're probably thinking about their family, but
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: they have all these students that they're responsible for, and
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: all the schools went on lockdown and we were in schools. Like,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine being a teacher that day.
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: Oh, I couldn't either.
• 17:59
  Speaker 8: Me neither.
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: And I don't know. I don't understand why, like, being
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: in fourth grade, why would you sit there and turn
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: on the news and let us watch this?
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: I agree.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: I think we were just all in shock. Everybody was
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: in shock and just trying to figure out what was happening. Yeah.
