2:12
Speaker 4: No Donna today.
2:16
Speaker 3: She was up last night. You know, I guess in
2:18
Speaker 3: this high rise, once in a while somebody pulls a
2:21
Speaker 3: fire alarm. So early, early this morning while she was sleeping,
2:24
Speaker 3: they pulled the fire alarm. That means everybody's got to
2:27
Speaker 3: get up and get out.
2:29
Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
2:29
Speaker 3: That's... So she's out. She's down.
2:32
Speaker 1: Well, the good news, it was a false alarm.
2:36
Speaker 3: I don't know that for a fact, but yeah, probably. Oh, okay.
2:38
Speaker 1: But there was no.
2:38
Speaker 3: Fire, though? No. Oh, okay. No, it wasn't.
2:43
Speaker 1: In my book, that's a false alarm. Yeah.
2:45
Speaker 3: But yesterday was interesting. I had to take off and
2:48
Speaker 3: go open the door for one of the guys. And,
2:50
Speaker 3: of course, you handled it perfectly, Henry. I was looking
2:52
Speaker 3: at the replay, and I got to say, you guys,
2:55
Speaker 3: you and Phil and Donna just carried the load yesterday
2:59
Speaker 3: without Dave. Oh, yeah.
3:02
Speaker 1: Well, you were kind of, you were actually here yesterday,
3:05
Speaker 1: but you, it looks like you missed half the show.
3:07
Speaker 3: You know, the worst part is I was watching you
3:09
Speaker 3: guys on Facebook on my phone. Right. But, yeah.
3:13
Speaker 4: You had no control.
3:15
Speaker 3: I had no, and you knew it. You knew it.
3:17
Speaker 1: Yeah. That's right. Actually, we really had no control. We
3:21
Speaker 1: couldn't push any buttons.
3:22
Speaker 3: But you guys, yeah. Well, you know, it's weird. People
3:25
Speaker 3: don't realize there's a lot of things that I do
3:27
Speaker 3: in order to make the show, you know, happen. And
3:30
Speaker 3: it's not just getting on, but I got to show
3:34
Speaker 3: you one day, Henry. You will appreciate me even more.
3:37
Speaker 1: It's called prepping for the show. You just don't come
3:40
Speaker 1: on at 7 o'clock and just turn a switch and
3:42
Speaker 1: that's it.
3:44
Speaker 3: Right, right.
3:45
Speaker 1: Well, take it from me about doing shows. I know
3:47
Speaker 1: you just can't walk right in, sit right down, and
3:50
Speaker 1: start the show. I've done that.
3:53
Speaker 3: Let me get started here real quick. I want to
3:56
Speaker 3: say hi to Marsha and Chaddo. That's out there this morning,
4:01

4:43
Speaker 1: Just wasn't me.
4:44
Speaker 3: You didn't need me. You guys are fine.

Speaker 1: So in the future, I guess we could fill in.
4:51
Speaker 1: The only thing is that you have to get us started.
4:53
Speaker 3: I'm going to have to take a couple weeks of
4:56
Speaker 3: training how to turn it on and do it. All right.
4:58
Speaker 3: You can do it, Henry.
5:01
Speaker 1: Well, I put my mind to it.
5:02
Speaker 4: Maybe we'll– Yeah, pull a rope.

5:04
Speaker 4: Get it started.
5:05
Speaker 3: Yeah.

5:10
Speaker 4: Okay.

5:15
Speaker 1: that one of the great advertisers of the Dave in

Speaker 3: More books than one. That's right.
5:24
Speaker 1: Yeah. It's a good book.

8:50
Speaker 5: I'm warm and dry, please don't pull on me from
8:53
Speaker 5: the sky.
8:57
Speaker 3: Because I get my weather from the radio.

Speaker 3: whatever worked. Phil, how are we looking there, old radar dude?
9:28
Speaker 4: Well, speaking of the radar, we got rain coming.

Speaker 4: Making my phone all wet.
9:44
Speaker 3: That's okay.
9:45
Speaker 1: All right.
9:47
Speaker 3: I think I need to probably put something that's a
9:49
Speaker 3: little more apropos, as you call it. Yeah, that's right.
9:52
Speaker 1: That doesn't do it.
9:53
Speaker 3: How about if I do, how about this one here?
9:57
Speaker 1: Bing!
10:00
Speaker 3: Okay.
10:02
Speaker 4: That's right.
10:04
Speaker 1: Well, that's somebody... That's you when it rains that you
10:07
Speaker 1: got your hoodie on.
10:09
Speaker 3: Yeah. And that's what I'm going to try to do.
10:12
Speaker 3: I'm going to see if I can find one for
10:14
Speaker 3: ice and snow. Oh, I just said that word. So
10:17
Speaker 3: we got... Yeah, we'll keep up with it. So how
10:20
Speaker 3: are we looking there, little buddy?
10:22
Speaker 4: Well, it's a little cool out here at, wow, 7-Eleven already.
10:26
Speaker 3: Hello. Hello.
10:28
Speaker 4: Same time yesterday.
10:30
Speaker 3: Hello.
10:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, in and around Harvard. We have a temperature of
10:34
Speaker 4: 56 is all we got. Wow. With cloudy skies and
10:40
Speaker 4: rain is imminent coming in from the west.
10:46
Speaker 3: It's coming.
10:47
Speaker 4: Somebody check the radar. Bing.
10:49
Speaker 3: Bing! Bing!
10:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, you should have a big line of it right
10:53
Speaker 4: through the center there.
10:55
Speaker 3: Yep.
10:56
Speaker 4: Head right for us.
10:57
Speaker 3: I kind of like that.
11:01
Speaker 4: Anyways, we have a dew point of 53 and humidity
11:05
Speaker 4: is 89%. Wow. And we have an east-northeast wind at 7.
11:09
Speaker 4: Kind of cool out there. Not going to get that
11:12
Speaker 4: warm today. Speaking of warmth, I think.
11:16
Speaker 3: Hey, Henry, you notice he stole the microphone from the
11:19
Speaker 3: community radio station to do this weather report.
11:25
Speaker 1: Well, he's part of the community.
11:26
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm just using some of the equipment, man.
11:29
Speaker 3: Sorry about that.
11:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got the first wave coming in, and there's
11:38
Speaker 4: a whole bunch more way out to the west. Really?
11:42
Speaker 4: All the way out to Nebraska. Nebraska. It's all heading
11:46
Speaker 4: this way. Going to the radar. Yep. And today, we'll
11:53
Speaker 4: have rain likely, all right.
11:55
Speaker 5: 100%.
11:57
Speaker 4: Talk about likely. And a high of 61. That's all
12:01
Speaker 4: we're going to muster. Winds out of the east, southeast
12:07
Speaker 4: at 5 to 10 miles an hour. And a Of course,
12:12
Speaker 4: the rain chance is 100%. You think? And we can
12:15
Speaker 4: get near half an inch of rain. It's pretty light rain,
12:19
Speaker 4: at least.
12:20
Speaker 3: Yeah. Nothing crazy.
12:25
Speaker 4: Then it says that it's likely to have heavy rainfall possible. Well,
12:30
Speaker 4: make up your mind.
12:30
Speaker 3: I'm with that idea.
12:31
Speaker 1: Yeah.
12:33
Speaker 4: Anyways, tonight we'll have scattered rain showers early, then cloudy overnight.
12:39
Speaker 4: So at least we get a reprieve. And then we
12:43
Speaker 4: have northwest winds at 10, 20 miles an hour. Then
12:48
Speaker 4: the wind kicks in. We have a chance of rain 70%.
12:52
Speaker 4: Then on Friday, we have a lot more wind coming in.
12:58
Speaker 4: We could have gusts up to 40 even.
13:01
Speaker 3: Oh, toupee alert. Oh, I got to fight that.
13:03
Speaker 1: Yeah.
13:03
Speaker 3: I got to fight that. You okay?
13:07
Speaker 1: Yeah.
13:07
Speaker 4: And a high of only 52.
13:11
Speaker 1: 52. Tomorrow.
13:14
Speaker 4: But guess this. Guess this. It's going to be down
13:19
Speaker 4: to 30. Now they say the low is going to be.
13:22
Speaker 5: Whoa.
13:23
Speaker 1: That's freezing weather.
13:24
Speaker 4: Yeah. North winds 10 to 20 miles an hour. And
13:32
Speaker 4: the sun will be out on Saturday. Bright sun shining.
13:36
Speaker 4: At least it'll help a little bit. But we're only
13:38
Speaker 4: going to get a high of 56 degrees. And a
13:42
Speaker 4: low of 39 again.
13:44
Speaker 1: Wow.
13:45
Speaker 4: Same way with Sunday, 62 and 41. So make sure
13:51
Speaker 4: you get your coat out because you're going to need it.
13:53
Speaker 1: Yeah.
13:54
Speaker 5: Wow.
13:54
Speaker 3: It's going to be cold.
13:56
Speaker 4: Currently in downtown Harvard, Illinois, we have a temperature of
14:01
Speaker 4: 56 degrees with a little bit of a wind. The
14:04
Speaker 4: east at 8 miles an hour.
14:06
Speaker 3: All right.
14:07
Speaker 4: Back to you, Dave.
14:08
Speaker 3: All right. Thank you, buddy. I think we need to
14:12
Speaker 3: probably get more stuff in our repertoire, Henry. Do you
14:17
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying?
14:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes.
14:18
Speaker 3: So I got an idea, and I'm going to share
14:20
Speaker 3: it with you guys right now. Okay. So, Phil, you
14:23
Speaker 3: need to be able to do this, okay? So if
14:26
Speaker 3: there is, I think, any winds over, let's say, what,
14:31
Speaker 3: 30 miles an hour? You think that would be, you know,
14:35
Speaker 3: that would be like where it could be a problem, right?
14:38
Speaker 3: So what we're going to do is we're going to have,
14:40
Speaker 3: you ready for this? A toupee alert right here. Okay.
14:45
Speaker 4: All right.
14:45
Speaker 3: Say like 32 miles an hour, Phil, on your report.
14:48
Speaker 3: Go ahead. Real quick.
14:51
Speaker 4: Anything over 32 miles an hour.
14:52
Speaker 3: What do you think? Okay.
14:59
Speaker 1: Well, that's the guy that I know that has that toupee.
15:01
Speaker 3: All right.
15:01
Speaker 4: Yeah.
15:03
Speaker 1: Okay.
15:03
Speaker 4: All right.
15:05
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that.
15:06
Speaker 3: In a while. All right. Two-pair alert. I got problems, man.
15:14
Speaker 3: I know.
15:14
Speaker 1: Well, that's some run he has.
15:17
Speaker 3: Oh, I can't wait to use that one. Anyhow, anything
15:19
Speaker 3: over 30 miles an hour, I mean, pull the two-pair alert, okay? Please.
15:25
Speaker 4: Yeah. We need to warn our people with two on
15:27
Speaker 4: their head.

16:04
Speaker 1: out and get.
16:05
Speaker 3: Them, I guess. That's right.

Speaker 3: I know you're keeping an eye on everything. Yeah.
16:40
Speaker 1: Oh, I got, uh, I'm on it. Uh, my eye is, uh,
16:48
Speaker 1: is really sharp.
16:50
Speaker 3: Really? Oh yeah.
16:50
Speaker 4: Don't get cut.
16:52
Speaker 1: So I don't have an evil eye either. Anyway, here's

Speaker 1: Fix-It.
17:16
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. All right, hold on a second. Let's bring
17:19
Speaker 3: this up another level. I think we need to go
17:21
Speaker 3: to the next level because it's got to do with money, right? Yes.
17:25
Speaker 1: Oh, it definitely has to do with money.
17:26
Speaker 3: Hold on. And now, ladies and gentlemen, from the WHIW newsroom, Oh, wow. Okay.

17:53
Speaker 1: Well, this broke yesterday, but it's still within the 24-hour
17:56
Speaker 1: period of breaking. Well, let me tell you, in case
17:58
Speaker 1: you were in a cave and haven't found... Well, it
18:01
Speaker 1: used to be in caves, usually on Fridays.
18:03
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Yeah.
18:05
Speaker 1: Well, those were the days, the caveman days.
18:07
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
18:07
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
18:08
Speaker 3: All righty. Yeah, and by the way, Phil, I'm still
18:11
Speaker 3: mad at you. You and, uh, what's his name?
18:14
Speaker 1: Oh?
18:14
Speaker 3: I don't even want to say his name anymore.
18:17
Speaker 1: Oh, I think Phil was the caveman of the year
18:18
Speaker 1: or something.
18:19
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I was. You were a cool conspiracy.
18:22
Speaker 1: Well, actually, I think you came in second and I
18:25
Speaker 1: was third. Yeah.
18:26
Speaker 3: Yeah.
18:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are you complaining about? You made the
18:29
Speaker 1: top three.
18:31
Speaker 3: I should have been number one.
18:33
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know who voted for it.
18:35
Speaker 3: I don't know.
18:36
Speaker 1: I think it was a big vote.
18:37
Speaker 3: Yeah. Okay.
18:39
Speaker 1: Anyway, back to what we're talking about. Uh, it's the
18:42
Speaker 1: social security, you know, every, uh, October the 14th, which
18:46
Speaker 1: was yesterday, the social security.
18:48
Speaker 3: Administration, I got my, uh, we ain't going to renew
18:50
Speaker 3: you letter yesterday.
18:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, actually I got that too. Yes.
18:53
Speaker 3: I got that. I was going to tell.
18:56
Speaker 1: You about that off air. And it was very, uh,
18:59
Speaker 1: they said, uh, you're no longer, you're, uh, your plan
19:03
Speaker 1: has been terminated. They didn't give any reason.
19:05
Speaker 4: Yeah.
19:07
Speaker 3: It doesn't, a lot of them are getting away from
19:09
Speaker 3: the PPOs. They're trying to.
19:11
Speaker 1: Get you on the HMOs. Yes, HMOs. That's garbage. Anyway. Yeah,
19:16
Speaker 1: I was actually going to talk to you off air
19:17
Speaker 1: about it, but now that you brought it up, I'll
19:19
Speaker 1: talk to you on air. Okay.
19:21
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's news. Yeah, it is news. Yes,
19:24
Speaker 3: I got my letter. Yeah. Okay.
19:25
Speaker 1: So every, okay. Isn't that a coincidence? We both got
19:27
Speaker 1: the letter at the same day.
19:28
Speaker 3: And G did too.
19:30
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I'm sure we're not the only ones.
19:32
Speaker 3: But get this, right? They sent me a thing, a
19:34
Speaker 3: home kit, and they're going to come and visit me.
19:36
Speaker 3: I got to go pee in a bottle, and then
19:39
Speaker 3: they're going to have me take blood. And I'm like,
19:40
Speaker 3: these guys are doing all this to get ready to.
19:44
Speaker 1: Kick me out. All right. That wasn't in my letter.
19:47
Speaker 4: Yeah.
19:47
Speaker 3: Oh, you got it.
19:48
Speaker 1: Okay. Anyway, let's talk about what's going on.
19:51
Speaker 3: The breaking news.
19:52
Speaker 1: Well, the breaking news, we both got letters saying that
19:54
Speaker 1: we don't have it in. We have to get a
19:56
Speaker 1: new insurance plan.
19:57
Speaker 3: You know what? I think there's still going to be
19:59
Speaker 3: some out there. We just got to be careful. I
20:00
Speaker 3: think Francesca has got to get to work. Okay. She
20:02
Speaker 3: better earn her money. Yes. Anyway.
20:06
Speaker 1: But first of all, speaking of money, the social security.
20:10
Speaker 1: on every October 14th makes an announcement about what the
20:14
Speaker 1: increase for Social Security recipients will be for the next year.
20:19
Speaker 1: And yesterday they came out and I'm very happy to
20:22
Speaker 1: announce this is not coming from me. This is from
20:25
Speaker 1: the Social Security Administration. The Social Security benefits will increase
20:31
Speaker 1: by 3.6% next year in 2027. And that affects for
20:33
Speaker 1: more than 72 million people. Now, the cost of living adjustment,
20:43
Speaker 1: which is known as the COLA.
20:46
Speaker 4: COLA.
20:47
Speaker 1: C-O-L-A. That's the acronym for the cost of living adjustment. Okay.
20:52
Speaker 1: So that's what COLA stands for.
20:53
Speaker 3: Hold on a second. What do they do afterwards?
20:59
Speaker 1: After they drink up the COLA?
21:01
Speaker 3: After they– see, you know, can't you be serious as
21:06
Speaker 3: a news guy?
21:06
Speaker 1: Really?
21:07
Speaker 3: Really.
21:08
Speaker 1: Well, weren't we on SiriusXM?
21:10
Speaker 3: For about three seconds.
21:12
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, I can't wait for next April Fool's Day.
21:14
Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm serious now. So you were saying?
21:17
Speaker 3: Well, the thing is, is that everything comes with a hook. Okay.
21:22
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, but I'm going to get to the meat
21:23
Speaker 1: of the story.
21:24
Speaker 3: Yeah.
21:25
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm not through yet.
21:28
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think.
21:30
Speaker 1: It's up to you if I'm through.
21:33
Speaker 3: No, I'm not trying to. You're all excited, okay? And
21:37
Speaker 3: I like that.
21:38
Speaker 1: Well, no, but there's more to the story. Because you're
21:41
Speaker 1: really not going to get as much as you think. Yeah,
21:44
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. You want to hear the beat
21:47
Speaker 1: of the story?
21:48
Speaker 3: All right, so let's start from the top, okay? Give
21:50
Speaker 3: them the good news. All right.
21:51
Speaker 1: Well, we're getting an increase. And also the bad news
21:56
Speaker 1: is that everything else is going.
21:57
Speaker 4: Up, too. So it's hard to keep up.
22:02
Speaker 3: Yeah.
22:02
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, let me get to the rest of this.
22:04
Speaker 1: So the– on average– Cha-ching.
22:08
Speaker 3: There it is. Cha-ching. That's right.
22:10
Speaker 1: All right.
22:10
Speaker 3: OK.
22:11
Speaker 1: Now this is the biggest increase since– yeah, that's very nice.
22:15
Speaker 1: This is the biggest increase since 2023. But, but, but. Yes.
22:17
Speaker 1: What's the but? Well, I'm going to get to it. Now,
22:24
Speaker 1: last year, just to give you perspective, last year the
22:27
Speaker 1: increase was 2.8%. Right. So the good news is it
22:32
Speaker 1: went up a little bit.
22:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
22:34
Speaker 1: Now, the bad news is it could have went down.
22:36
Speaker 1: And it has. And some years it does go down.
22:38
Speaker 4: Yep.
22:39
Speaker 1: You've heard the phrase, but it does come down.
22:41
Speaker 3: That's not what I'm talking about.
22:43
Speaker 1: Well, I'm kidding. I think I know what you're talking about.
22:44
Speaker 3: You think you're right.
22:46
Speaker 4: All right.
22:46
Speaker 1: Well, let me just finish this, and then you tell me.
22:50
Speaker 1: So on average, retirement benefits will rise $ 75 a month.
22:56
Speaker 1: And that works roughly to $ 900 a year and estimates
23:00
Speaker 1: the highest earners will see the increase of more than $ 2, 200
23:04
Speaker 1: a year.
23:05
Speaker 3: Okay.
23:07
Speaker 1: Now, let me just tell you that the COLA is
23:09
Speaker 1: based on the average year.
23:10
Speaker 3: See, what you're doing is you're slathering in the money increase.
23:16
Speaker 3: But watch this. Go ahead.
23:18
Speaker 1: Well, there's other things that are increasing, too. Okay, let
23:20
Speaker 1: me get right to it. You know the Medicare Part
23:23
Speaker 1: B that they charge?
23:26
Speaker 3: Here it goes. Here we go. Here we go.
23:27
Speaker 1: Well, that's going to rise.
23:29
Speaker 3: Here comes the government. Cha-ching! They take it back.
23:34
Speaker 1: Well, right now, the current.
23:37
Speaker 3: That's the classic good news, bad news.
23:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, because the Medicare Part B, right now, they're taking
23:42
Speaker 1: like $ 202.
23:42
Speaker 3: 90 out of your check.
23:42
Speaker 1: Now, it's expected... For next year, from $ 202. 90, it's expected
23:52
Speaker 1: to increase to $ 209. 50. Right. So that's about $ 6. 60. So
24:00
Speaker 1: instead of $ 75 getting a year in the check, it
24:03
Speaker 1: would probably be roughly $ 68.
24:05
Speaker 4: Right.
24:05
Speaker 3: Okay.
24:05
Speaker 1: So it's not going to be as much as you
24:08
Speaker 1: think it is.
24:08
Speaker 3: Just when you thought you had it. Yes.
24:10
Speaker 4: All right.
24:12
Speaker 1: Anyway, so now for all of you who are not
24:15
Speaker 1: on Social Security, I'm sorry that One day, hopefully, everybody
24:19
Speaker 1: will be on it.
24:20
Speaker 3: And then we'll go bankrupt and we'll all be.
24:24
Speaker 1: Well, they're saying that– I've heard like 2032, 2033, that
24:29
Speaker 1: at that time, unless Congress does something– well, you know
24:36
Speaker 1: the way Congress works. I don't know if they're going
24:39
Speaker 1: to do this.
24:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
24:40
Speaker 1: But unless they act, they say that– what you're getting
24:45
Speaker 1: now could decrease roughly 20 to 25%. You might not
24:48
Speaker 1: get as much as you're getting now, but they have
24:50
Speaker 1: to do something.
24:52
Speaker 4: Yep.
24:52
Speaker 1: Yeah.
24:52
Speaker 4: Do something.
24:53
Speaker 3: All right.
24:54
Speaker 1: Okay.
24:54
Speaker 4: Sacrifice.
24:55
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. Yes.
24:56
Speaker 1: And stop taking so many vacations. Really? Yeah. What are
24:59
Speaker 1: we paying you for? That's my own. Okay. My own thoughts.
25:03
Speaker 1: By the way, I also got news about the Pope Leo.
25:07
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. I heard about that. Yes.
25:09
Speaker 1: Well, let me, uh, tell you, you know, the Pope
25:13
Speaker 1: had a good night's sleep. You know, he had an
25:16
Speaker 1: operation earlier this week, and they say that he slept
25:20
Speaker 1: well last night in the hospital. He got up and
25:22
Speaker 1: had breakfast.
25:24
Speaker 3: Smoked a cigar?
25:26
Speaker 1: Well, no, they didn't say that.
25:28
Speaker 3: They didn't say he didn't.
25:31
Speaker 1: Well, you're right about that. I don't think the Pope... Well,
25:34
Speaker 1: the Pope's from Chicago.
25:35
Speaker 3: So you think they don't smoke, but they do. They smoke,
25:37
Speaker 3: they drink. Everything.
25:39
Speaker 1: Now, the Pope, who's 71... Which nowadays is a young
25:46
Speaker 1: age for a Pope. I think it's 71.
25:48
Speaker 3: All right. You know, they purposely pick them older so
25:53
Speaker 3: they croak. They don't want them to.
25:56
Speaker 1: Be in there that long. Well, the Pope got picked.
25:58
Speaker 1: He was one of the youngest Popes.
26:00
Speaker 3: I know, but normally they pick some guy that's 98.
26:02
Speaker 3: All right. I mean, sometimes they've got to prop him
26:05
Speaker 3: up to install him.
26:09
Speaker 1: Anyway, the Pope was diagnosed with lung cancer.
26:11
Speaker 3: Aren't you glad you're a Baptist there, Phil? Because you
26:13
Speaker 3: don't really care, do you, buddy?
26:17
Speaker 1: Now, the Pope was diagnosed with lung cancer. You know what?
26:21
Speaker 3: He's okay. You know what I'm saying? The thing is,
26:24
Speaker 3: I think the Pope should stay out of politics. That's me.
26:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
26:28
Speaker 3: He shouldn't get in politics because, you know, really, it
26:31
Speaker 3: makes him look bad when he gets in there and
26:33
Speaker 3: argues with Trump. Well, yeah.
26:38
Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of the president, since you brought
26:40
Speaker 1: him up. Anyway, I'll just finish this story. The pope
26:44
Speaker 1: was diagnosed with lung cancer and underwent surgery this week
26:47
Speaker 1: to have the lower lobe of his right lung removed. Now,
26:49
Speaker 1: the Vatican said his recovery at Rome's Gemelli Hospital was
26:54
Speaker 1: expected to last about a week.
26:56
Speaker 3: Wow.
26:57
Speaker 1: Okay, so he wished the pope well.
27:01
Speaker 3: You know what, really? I mean, stay with the religion, bro,
27:04
Speaker 3: you know, and stay out of politics, and I'll be
27:06
Speaker 3: fine with that. No, I'll light him a candle or something.
27:10
Speaker 3: But he's got to stay out of the politics. Yes.
27:14
Speaker 3: Something Baptists don't do, by the way. They don't light candles. Uh-uh.
27:17
Speaker 4: Because they put everybody in hell. That's what I'm talking about.
27:19
Speaker 3: Yeah. That's what I'm talking about.
27:20
Speaker 4: Yeah.
27:21
Speaker 2: All righty.
27:22
Speaker 1: And now that, since Don is not here, I've got
27:24
Speaker 1: to trust him.
27:24
Speaker 3: Now, are you really like a Baptist Baptist there, Phil?
27:27
Speaker 3: I'm here. No, but what I'm saying, are you like
27:29
Speaker 3: a Baptist, you know, a Baptist of Baptists?
27:32
Speaker 4: We're Southern Baptists.
27:34
Speaker 3: Oh. Hey, Henry. Henry? You'll never want to walk in
27:39
Speaker 3: that church, man.
27:40
Speaker 5: Oh.
27:41
Speaker 3: They'll put you in hell.
27:42
Speaker 1: I've been in that church.
27:43
Speaker 3: They'll put you in hell and let God sort it out. Yeah.
27:48
Speaker 1: Well, let me just finish this.
27:49
Speaker 3: At least they stick to what they believe. I'll give
27:51
Speaker 3: them that. Yes.
27:53
Speaker 1: Well, the President Trump did wish– I don't know about Phil,
27:55
Speaker 1: but most people do. Well, let me just say this.
28:00
Speaker 3: Phil sings, too, by the way. Yeah, okay.
28:02
Speaker 1: Let me just finish the story. The president did wish
28:04
Speaker 1: Pope Leo a speedy recovery Wednesday.
28:07
Speaker 3: Now, that's nice. See, that's okay to do that, okay? But,
28:10
Speaker 3: you know, don't look at him and say, you know,
28:12
Speaker 3: I wish you didn't say anything, you know, because I'm
28:13
Speaker 3: bigly and all this other stuff.
28:14
Speaker 1: But he also, in wishing the pope well, he revealed
28:18
Speaker 1: that he is friends with the pontiff's brother, whom he
28:20
Speaker 1: described as an enthusiastic MAGA supporter. See, the pope's brother
28:25
Speaker 1: is a big supporter of the president.
28:27
Speaker 3: So we have a split opinion there. Yes, yes.
28:31
Speaker 1: Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One while traveling from
28:33
Speaker 1: Arizona to Montana, Trump expects optimism about the 71-year-old upon
28:37
Speaker 1: his recovery following surgery to remove part of his lung.
28:42
Speaker 1: I want to see Pope Leo get well. I hear
28:44
Speaker 1: the prognosis for that type of problem.
28:49
Speaker 3: It's a cancer.
28:49
Speaker 1: It's a big stuff. Anytime you have cancer, the president said,
28:52
Speaker 1: but The prognosis seems to be good. I've watched it,
28:54
Speaker 1: and we just want to wish him our love and
28:56
Speaker 1: our best wishes. So that's very nice.
28:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's nice. That's what I'm talking about, man. Kumbaya.
29:01
Speaker 3: Let's go. All right.
29:03
Speaker 1: So every once in a while, this president says some
29:05
Speaker 1: nice things.
29:05
Speaker 3: Yeah.
29:06
Speaker 1: Which is very nice.
29:07
Speaker 3: Very seldom, but yeah.
29:08
Speaker 1: Well, that's all right, anyway.
29:10
Speaker 3: All right, anyway. And usually 99% of nice things is
29:12
Speaker 3: about him and his hands. Mm-hmm. Boy, Don and Phil
29:16
Speaker 3: were just... cranking on him yesterday when I wasn't.
29:18
Speaker 1: Trump, I'm so sorry, because I know you're not into
29:22
Speaker 1: the Trump news that much.
29:23
Speaker 3: He doesn't like him. Well, but Phil, you know what,
29:28
Speaker 3: you might want to watch your religious roots, because the
29:31
Speaker 3: Southern Baptists always have supported him. All right.
29:38
Speaker 1: And By the way, I also got other good news.
29:42
Speaker 3: You saved a lot on your car insurance?
29:44
Speaker 1: That's right. Well, if you're a Milwaukee Brewers fan, this
29:48
Speaker 1: is very good news.
29:48
Speaker 3: What'd they do?
29:50
Speaker 1: Well, can you believe, do you believe this? That they
29:53
Speaker 1: beat the Los Angeles Dodgers in Los Angeles last night?
29:56
Speaker 3: Oh, slap them around like little girls.
29:58
Speaker 1: Six to two. It wasn't even close. So they now
30:03
Speaker 1: have a stranglehold on this series. You like the word stranglehold?
30:07
Speaker 1: They're leading the series three games to nothing.
30:10
Speaker 3: Wow.
30:11
Speaker 1: So that means the Los Angeles Dodgers, to go back
30:15
Speaker 1: to the World Series for the third time in three years,
30:20
Speaker 1: would have to win the remaining four games in a row.
30:23
Speaker 4: Oh.
30:23
Speaker 1: And that ain't going to happen. Well, I did some research, Dave.
30:28
Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
30:29
Speaker 1: And it did happen once that a baseball team, after
30:34
Speaker 1: losing the first three games, won the series, won four
30:36
Speaker 1: in a row. Do you remember when that happened?
30:39
Speaker 3: No.
30:41
Speaker 1: Well, I'll take it back.
30:43
Speaker 3: To the year 2004.
30:43
Speaker 1: That was 22 years ago. It happened to the Boston
30:47
Speaker 1: Red Sox. They were playing my New York Yankees. And
30:52
Speaker 1: the Yankees had a 3-0 lead in that series. And
30:56
Speaker 1: the Red Sox came back and won four straight games
30:59
Speaker 1: to take the series four games to three. And then
31:02
Speaker 1: they went on to the World Series to beat the St.
31:04
Speaker 1: Louis Cardinals in the World Series.
31:07
Speaker 3: Wow.
31:10
Speaker 1: And so it happens once. It has happened a couple
31:13
Speaker 1: of times in hockey, I know. Really?
31:15
Speaker 3: Yeah.
31:16
Speaker 1: So anyway, I just don't see that happening. The way
31:19
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Brewers are playing, it's not going to happen. Now,
31:24
Speaker 1: if you recall last year, The Dodgers swept Milwaukee. Now,
31:30
Speaker 1: this year, the Brewers are going to have a chance
31:33
Speaker 1: to sweep the Dodgers.
31:35
Speaker 3: So, last night, Milwaukee won. That's right. But, hold on
31:41
Speaker 3: a second. Yes. I have video to prove the winning
31:46
Speaker 3: slide to home base.
31:48
Speaker 1: Oh, this I got to see.
31:50
Speaker 3: Oh, you will. Here it is. Boom.
31:52
Speaker 1: Out. Wait a minute. I didn't see that. I was
32:01
Speaker 1: watching the game last night. I didn't see that. You
32:03
Speaker 1: must have been watching.
32:06
Speaker 3: When they saw him heading home there, man, he blocked it.
32:09
Speaker 1: I think I was watching the wrong game.
32:10
Speaker 3: Yeah. All right.
32:15
Speaker 1: By the way, today there's two games on.
32:18
Speaker 3: Really?
32:20
Speaker 1: Would I lie to you about that?
32:21
Speaker 3: No, you wouldn't.
32:22
Speaker 1: All right. Well, the– Not going to win.
32:26
Speaker 4: All right.
32:26
Speaker 1: Anyway, so this afternoon, the Tampa Rays are in Cleveland
32:31
Speaker 1: to play the Guardians. Now, originally– now, that game is
32:35
Speaker 1: going to start, believe it or not, at 12 o'clock
32:38
Speaker 1: Central Time or 1 o'clock Eastern Time in Cleveland. And
32:42
Speaker 1: the reason they're starting the game that early, because the
32:45
Speaker 1: rain is moving into Cleveland.
32:46
Speaker 3: Yeah.
32:47
Speaker 1: And they're supposed to start that later in the afternoon.
32:49
Speaker 3: Phil knew that.
32:50
Speaker 1: So– All right. I'm sure Phil knew that. So instead
32:54
Speaker 1: of playing it like at 3 or 4 o'clock in
32:55
Speaker 1: the afternoon when they were really going to play it
32:57
Speaker 1: or something like that, they moved up the starting time
32:59
Speaker 1: to 1 o'clock Eastern time. So that game and that
33:02
Speaker 1: series is tied one-to-one. And because of that, the Brewers-Dodgers game,
33:06
Speaker 1: which was supposed to start at 8 o'clock Central time tonight,
33:09
Speaker 1: is now going to start at 7 o'clock Central time
33:12
Speaker 1: or 5 o'clock in L.A.
33:14
Speaker 4: They don't have a roof. They can close.
33:15
Speaker 1: No. No, both in Cleveland and in L.A., there's no ruse.
33:24
Speaker 1: They play the game out of the open. Anyway, so
33:28
Speaker 1: we'll see. By the way, Dave, do you think the
33:30
Speaker 1: Brewers are going to sweep the Dodgers tonight?
33:32
Speaker 3: I don't think so, but I could be wrong. I'd
33:35
Speaker 3: like to.
33:35
Speaker 1: See them do it. I'd be shocked if the Dodgers
33:38
Speaker 1: lose this game tonight. But I think the way the
33:42
Speaker 1: Brewers are playing, I could see them sweeping it. Because
33:44
Speaker 1: that's what the Dodgers did to them last year. Now
33:47
Speaker 1: they have a chance to sweep them. So we'll see
33:50
Speaker 1: if that happens. Okay, at 734, no more.
33:56
Speaker 4: Shut the door.
33:59
Speaker 1: Then I'll be on the floor. Okay, I'm through.
34:01
Speaker 4: Back to you. How about that?
34:02
Speaker 3: It is 734. Now today is Thursday, Thursday. And so,
34:14
Speaker 3: of course, we always have some good stuff.
34:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got some Thursday tidbits coming up.
34:20
Speaker 4: Yeah.
34:20
Speaker 3: And so why don't we take a quick musical break
34:24
Speaker 3: here and see what it is. How about a little Toby?
34:30
Speaker 1: Sounds good to me.
34:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
34:31
Speaker 4: Yeah.
34:32
Speaker 3: All right. 735 here on the Day of the Morning Show. Yes,
34:36
Speaker 3: this is dedicated to Henry Stevens, Radio Jack.
34:40
Speaker 2: Head down as I punch this clock The hours roll,
34:44
Speaker 2: they never stop And I can't ever seem to get
34:48
Speaker 2: ahead Always trying to do what's right Straight and narrow,
34:56
Speaker 2: skin tight Don't know how much longer I can stand
35:02
Speaker 2: And I'm wondering Yeah, I'm wondering where's my promised land
35:14
Speaker 2: Out here on this desert road It's hot as fire
35:18
Speaker 2: but I've grown cold Circling like a plane that never lands.
35:24
Speaker 6: And even though the questions change The answers always stay
35:30
Speaker 6: the same Maybe someday I will understand So I'm wondering
35:38
Speaker 6: Got me wondering Where's my promised land?
35:43
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm wondering Still I'm wondering Where's my promised land?
35:46
Speaker 6: Well, I've run this earth for many years But there's
35:49
Speaker 6: one thing I know There's nowhere on this side of
36:08
Speaker 6: heaven The streets are made of gold I've long laid
36:12
Speaker 6: down my grand.
36:13
Speaker 7: Illusions Looking toward the day that I'll be home I
36:23
Speaker 7: won't give up on this race Broken but I still
36:27
Speaker 7: have faith That this old life is all part of
36:31
Speaker 7: a plan And I can feel it in my soul
36:37
Speaker 7: One day I'll stand before the throne With nothing left
36:41
Speaker 7: but hope in these two hands.
36:45
Speaker 2: Through all these seasons I'm still believing You're my promised land.
36:52
Speaker 5: In all my grieving I'm still believing You're my promised land.
37:53
Speaker 3: All right, a little Toby Mac there this morning on
37:55
Speaker 3: the Dave in the Morning Show. It is 7.38 there, Mr. Stevens. Now,
38:03
Speaker 3: I like trolling local events here in the Harvard area,
38:07
Speaker 3: and I know that you're more of a national guy,
38:10
Speaker 3: but not me, man. Not me. I'm a local guy.
38:14
Speaker 3: And so I thought maybe some local gossip here on
38:17
Speaker 3: the Dave in the Morning Show. What do you think?
38:19
Speaker 1: Oh, it's gossip?
38:21
Speaker 3: Gossip Dave.
38:22
Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
38:23
Speaker 3: Okay.
38:23
Speaker 4: All right, so here's.
38:25
Speaker 3: Some local gossip, okay? Number one, I got to do
38:28
Speaker 3: an attaboy to our very own Jay Schultz from the
38:32
Speaker 3: hood here. He is offering a free Thanksgiving dinner.
38:37
Speaker 1: Oh, I heard about that.
38:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah. Now, yesterday, just by the way, everybody,
38:42
Speaker 3: I still troll 101.3 FM, like just anything I can
38:44
Speaker 3: find wrong. I'll report it. Unfortunately, yesterday I couldn't find
38:51
Speaker 3: anything wrong. So I had to listen. I had to
38:54
Speaker 3: put up with him talking on the radio because, you know,
38:56
Speaker 3: he does the local thing with the show.
38:59
Speaker 1: On a roll show. That's right.
39:01
Speaker 3: Well, thank you, Henry. I appreciate that. Yes.
39:03
Speaker 1: Well, I happen to know the name of the show.
39:06
Speaker 3: Why is that? Anyhow.
39:08
Speaker 1: I know a few things about that station.
39:10
Speaker 3: But yeah. And he had Michelle on there yesterday and
39:13
Speaker 3: the guy from the Woodstock cinemas and But anyhow, he's,
39:19
Speaker 3: you know, after all these years, okay, finally, he's actually
39:23
Speaker 3: doing good. Because remember how bad he was when he
39:26
Speaker 3: first started? He was horrible. He didn't know what to expect.
39:30
Speaker 3: wouldn't say he was horrible. No, he wasn't. But things
39:34
Speaker 3: have changed. He's gotten to be more of a– I
39:36
Speaker 3: think the newspaper thing really helped him do a better job.
39:39
Speaker 3: But anyhow, yesterday he had the show. You've got to
39:43
Speaker 3: tune that in. That was pretty cool. On the Roll Show.
39:46
Speaker 3: And it's on Wednesdays at, I think, 1 o'clock, right?
39:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, around 1 o'clock.
39:53
Speaker 3: That's right. And then at night, they just canceled the
39:56
Speaker 3: weekend variety show. I mean, the Best of Broadway with Henry.
40:00
Speaker 1: Well, that's news to me. I didn't hear about that.
40:04
Speaker 3: Well, look at that screen. Local news. Yeah.
40:07
Speaker 1: Well, this is gossip. Anyway, actually, I got some more gossip.
40:10
Speaker 1: It's gossip.
40:11
Speaker 3: It's gossip. There's my middle name, Dave Gossip.
40:16
Speaker 1: Well, actually, speaking of local stuff, one week from today,
40:19
Speaker 1: we have a big meeting coming up. And I found out, actually,
40:23
Speaker 1: I happened to be speaking to the aforementioned Jay Schultz yesterday.
40:28
Speaker 1: And I found out that the day of that meeting,
40:31
Speaker 1: he's going to be somewhere else. He's going to be
40:35
Speaker 1: at Soldier Field in Chicago.
40:36
Speaker 4: That's more important.
40:41
Speaker 1: He's going to a Bears game. Anyway, so it is
40:46
Speaker 1: what it is. But he wishes he could be there,
40:50
Speaker 1: but it's one of those things. You can't be at
40:52
Speaker 1: two places at the same time.
40:54
Speaker 3: Right, right, right. So anyhow, local– let me go back
40:58
Speaker 3: to local news. Yes. So evidently the federal government, ICE enforcement,
41:05
Speaker 3: has been in the hood lately, from what I hear
41:08
Speaker 3: on 411.
41:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did see something about that.
41:10
Speaker 3: And the thing is, is that people don't realize this, okay?
41:14
Speaker 3: And I don't necessarily agree with what they are totally doing, but,
41:19
Speaker 3: you know, when you flip off a federal agent, that
41:21
Speaker 3: gives them probable cause to check you out and see
41:24
Speaker 3: if you are, you know, if you are legit or not.
41:27
Speaker 3: But the thing is, is that people don't realize this,
41:30
Speaker 3: that you can say anything you want. Like, they just
41:33
Speaker 3: struck down A law in California where they made a
41:36
Speaker 3: law that said that ICE agents had to have their
41:38
Speaker 3: badge and ID card and take the mask off and
41:41
Speaker 3: all that other stuff. And that was the circuit court.
41:44
Speaker 3: I think the court of appeals said, no, you can't
41:46
Speaker 3: do that. There's still cops. Whether you like them or not,
41:49
Speaker 3: whether you agree with what they do or not, there's
41:51
Speaker 3: still federal cops. Yes. And even the local cops can't
41:54
Speaker 3: do nothing. And they don't, believe me, in Illinois. You know,
41:58
Speaker 3: that is the stupidest thing. Can I just vent for
42:00
Speaker 3: a second? That is the stupidest thing Illinois and some
42:04
Speaker 3: of these other states have done. And don't mind my dog.
42:06
Speaker 3: He's barking at the ICE officers. All right.
42:09
Speaker 1: So what?
42:09
Speaker 3: Oh, they're trying to get me because I'm an alien.
42:12
Speaker 1: Well, you happen to mention them and they're they're they're my.
42:15
Speaker 3: Dog is trained to eat ice. All right. But anyhow,
42:18
Speaker 3: so so the thing is, is that they used to
42:22
Speaker 3: when like when somebody had a you know, they got
42:25
Speaker 3: arrested like at the county jail. Let's use that for example.
42:27
Speaker 1: Right. Yes.
42:28
Speaker 3: Then what would happen is they would run them past ICE.
42:31
Speaker 3: ICE would say, yeah, we have a detainer for them.
42:34
Speaker 3: And they would come and pick them up at the jail. Simple, right?
42:36
Speaker 3: Easy peasy, right?
42:38
Speaker 1: Yes.
42:38
Speaker 3: So what happened is now when Trump took over, they
42:41
Speaker 3: had changed the laws. Well, actually, a couple of years back.
42:43
Speaker 3: I think they changed the laws actually before Trump got
42:45
Speaker 3: in there to say that they would not cooperate with
42:49
Speaker 3: ICE detainers. Because a detainer isn't really a warrant. Yes.
42:53
Speaker 3: It's like we want to grab them and detain them.
42:56
Speaker 3: And so Illinois and some other states made law saying
42:58
Speaker 3: that they're not going to cooperate with ICE. So the
43:01
Speaker 3: thing is, is that I would rather them grab the
43:05
Speaker 3: guy up at jail than to chase him down the
43:07
Speaker 3: street in a car running over people he's getting shot at.
43:11
Speaker 3: That's my opinion.
43:13
Speaker 1: And my opinion is, whenever you're in contact with any
43:16
Speaker 1: law enforcement official— You.
43:17
Speaker 3: Have to understand that if you break a law, whether
43:20
Speaker 3: you like it or not, the cops or ICE will
43:24
Speaker 3: grab you. Now, don't get me wrong. I don't always agree.
43:28
Speaker 3: Are you okay, Phil? I think he just blew the
43:32
Speaker 3: snow out.
43:33
Speaker 1: His world is topsy-turvy, I see.
43:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, I see. But anyhow, I think that we need
43:39
Speaker 3: to reexamine. And one of the biggest problems is that
43:42
Speaker 3: so many of them got in unchecked when Biden was president.
43:47
Speaker 3: And it's not political. I'm just talking about what happened.
43:50
Speaker 1: It just sounds a fact.
43:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what they're doing is they're trying to chase.
43:54
Speaker 3: It would be a lot better if they all worked together.
43:56
Speaker 3: But the problem is now they've got the citizens are
43:59
Speaker 3: actually pulling over, blowing whistles, throwing things at cops. You
44:02
Speaker 3: can't do that.
44:03
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was just going to say that.
44:05
Speaker 3: Don't be Al Stupido.
44:07
Speaker 1: In the past, if I've had experience being approached by
44:11
Speaker 1: a law enforcement official.
44:12
Speaker 3: You were stopped by ICE? Well, no, no, no.
44:15
Speaker 1: No, there have been occasions.
44:17
Speaker 3: Believe it or not. When I see that, the little
44:19
Speaker 3: day in the morning bumper sticker pulled over to the
44:21
Speaker 3: side of the road. Oh, yeah.
44:23
Speaker 1: Well, there have been a few times that I've been
44:24
Speaker 1: known to. Actually, I did get a little ticket once
44:27
Speaker 1: when I crossed the. Well, it was a ticket. I
44:32
Speaker 1: don't know if it was that small.
44:34
Speaker 3: Well, let's get a judge of that.
44:35
Speaker 1: About changing lanes.
44:37
Speaker 3: Oh, improper lane usage. Improper. Yeah.
44:39
Speaker 1: Well, you do that all the way.
44:41
Speaker 3: Down the road.
44:42
Speaker 1: That's right. Anyway, but what I'm just saying is you
44:46
Speaker 1: always act on your best behavior. If you say, yes, sir, yes, ma'am,
44:50
Speaker 1: what can I do? You don't yell or scream at
44:54
Speaker 1: the officer.
44:55
Speaker 3: Well, that's a guarantee.
44:58
Speaker 1: Yeah.
44:58
Speaker 3: The thing is that I've been watching, if you ever
45:00
Speaker 3: get a chance to go to YouTube, you can watch
45:02
Speaker 3: the Sunrise Florida Police Department. They have a blacked out Mustang. Right.
45:07
Speaker 3: And so this guy, he gets on there and he
45:09
Speaker 3: does traffic stops. And he always does the same thing.
45:12
Speaker 3: He says, I'm with the Peace Department. Are you, any
45:16
Speaker 3: lawful reason for you driving like that? Now, you know me,
45:20
Speaker 3: I would love, not to get a ticket, but I
45:22
Speaker 3: would love to be pulled over and say, I don't know,
45:24
Speaker 3: as fast as you were going, I think there was
45:26
Speaker 3: a problem somewhere. Okay. But he's in a blacked out car,
45:30
Speaker 3: you know, and he chases these guys down. All of
45:31
Speaker 3: a sudden, all the blue and red lights come on.
45:34
Speaker 1: You just got to be very careful what you say.
45:35
Speaker 1: And just, as I said, just act on your best behavior.
45:38
Speaker 3: Well, the thing is, is more than likely, if you
45:40
Speaker 3: got pulled over, you're going to get a ticket. That's
45:42
Speaker 3: what law enforcement does. Get this. You ready for this?
45:45
Speaker 3: They enforce. Are you ready? Laws. So there's a good
45:49
Speaker 3: chance that you're going to get a ticket, okay?
45:51
Speaker 1: Or sometimes you get pulled over that your light is out.
45:54
Speaker 1: You know, your back light is out. They just inform you. Yeah,
45:57
Speaker 1: they say, yeah, if I were you, I'd just get
46:00
Speaker 1: it fixed.
46:00
Speaker 4: Right.
46:00
Speaker 1: And again, so, you know, when that happens, you better
46:05
Speaker 1: get it fixed.
46:06
Speaker 3: Yeah.
46:06
Speaker 1: Because they'll be looking for you.
46:07
Speaker 3: Well, the way I drive, and normally being a law-abiding
46:11
Speaker 3: citizen– Anyhow, being a law-abiding citizen, if I do happen
46:17
Speaker 3: to have an interaction with, like ICE, if they pull
46:22
Speaker 3: me over and they say, are you an American citizen,
46:24
Speaker 3: I'll be proud to tell them yes.
46:27
Speaker 1: Okay.
46:28
Speaker 3: Speaking of telling things, I wonder, do they really pull
46:30
Speaker 3: people over just because they're Spanish? I think so. I
46:33
Speaker 3: think so. Okay.
46:36
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think the majority won't, but I'm sure there's
46:40
Speaker 1: a few that will.
46:41
Speaker 3: No, they do. Yeah. All right.
46:43
Speaker 1: Speaking of, as you heard, there's a will, there's a way.
46:47
Speaker 1: There's something I forgot to mention before. What is this? Well, no,
46:53
Speaker 1: I would be diligent in my duties as we inform
46:57
Speaker 1: people on the Day with the Morning Show to tell you,
46:59
Speaker 1: this also happens to do with Social Security, that today, Thursday,
47:04
Speaker 1: October 15th, is the beginning of the Medicare open enrollment period.
47:08
Speaker 3: Yeah. Today's the day.
47:09
Speaker 1: Did the French have to call you yet? Well, she'll
47:12
Speaker 1: be calling me back. But the period it starts today.
47:15
Speaker 3: Let me know which one you get, bro.
47:16
Speaker 1: All right. It starts today, October 15th, and it runs
47:20
Speaker 1: through December 7th.
47:21
Speaker 3: December 31st, I'm out.
47:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the thing is that your current plans will
47:28
Speaker 1: end on December 31st, and the new plan will start
47:31
Speaker 1: January 1st.
47:32
Speaker 3: What do you think? Are we going to get a
47:33
Speaker 3: PPO or HMO?
47:37
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Looking more likely HMO. And I have
47:43

47:47
Speaker 3: No, I'll just wait for Francesca to tell you. Okay. Yeah. Okay.

Speaker 1: Anyway, so we want to let you know about that.
47:53
Speaker 1: But today is the day that the open enrollment period.

48:00
Speaker 1: And it goes through December 7th, which is on a Monday.
48:06
Speaker 1: It goes through Monday, December 7th. And that day, of course,

48:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's... Sink my battleship. What a coincidence. Anyway,

48:23
Speaker 3: And now, ladies and gentlemen, yes, Mr. Tidbits himself, Henry Stevens!

Speaker 1: I'll run with it.
48:37
Speaker 3: All right. Is he out of breath yet?
48:46
Speaker 4: He don't look like he's running.
48:49
Speaker 3: Alrighty. Alrighty.
48:54
Speaker 1: Hold on for something. I can't see my.
49:00
Speaker 3: Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.
49:02
Speaker 4: What?
49:03
Speaker 3: You're not ready after all that?
49:06
Speaker 1: I'm looking down my list for my Thursday tidbits. And
49:14
Speaker 1: let's see.
49:14
Speaker 4: I got lost.
49:16
Speaker 3: Okay.
49:20
Speaker 1: I did find it. Okay.
49:21
Speaker 3: You know what? That's called dead air. Okay. D-E-D-E-E-R. Dead air.
49:28
Speaker 1: Do you know something that.
49:31
Speaker 3: By the way, I just said that improperly on purpose.
49:33
Speaker 3: Thank you.
49:33
Speaker 1: Okay.
49:34
Speaker 3: Okay.
49:36
Speaker 1: Let's see. Where did I hold on for one second? G-E-D-E-A-R.
49:40
Speaker 3: That's it. Dead Ear. Yeah, that's it. Now, ladies and gentlemen,
49:46
Speaker 3: after he has corrected his mistake, it's Henry Stevens. How
49:52
Speaker 3: many times do I have to do the intro, bro? Okay.
49:56
Speaker 1: Well, there's no Thursday tidbits today.
49:58
Speaker 3: What? I don't know.
50:02
Speaker 1: I did it yesterday and I forgot what I did
50:04
Speaker 1: with it.
50:06
Speaker 3: Uh-oh. Well, there with that show. Okay. All righty.
50:13
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. No, that's okay.
50:16
Speaker 3: You know what? Just show me something. And, Phil, you've
50:18
Speaker 3: got to work with me on this one. He's not perfect.
50:23
Speaker 1: I never said I was.
50:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, you did.
50:27
Speaker 1: I know I did it, and I sent it to
50:29
Speaker 1: a different e-mail address, and I don't see it. Because
50:32
Speaker 1: I have a couple of.
50:33
Speaker 3: All righty.
50:34
Speaker 1: It is what it is. And, well, actually, I do
50:40
Speaker 1: have a couple. Yeah, wait a minute. I do have
50:42
Speaker 1: a couple that I could do. Okay, so I'm not,
50:46
Speaker 1: so I did promise Thursday tidbits that I'm going to deliver.
50:48
Speaker 3: Okay. You ready?
50:51
Speaker 1: Okay. Now, I, you have been appointed. And I'm going
50:58
Speaker 1: to go back later and find out what I did
50:59
Speaker 1: with the rest of the tidbits, but we don't have
51:00
Speaker 1: too much time.
51:01
Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah.
51:04
Speaker 1: You just did it and you put it somewhere.
51:06
Speaker 3: See, this is what I love about– how about a quiz, Dave?
51:10
Speaker 4: Yeah.
51:10
Speaker 3: See, this is what people are looking for. All right.
51:13
Speaker 3: They don't care.
51:14
Speaker 1: Okay. I do have one tidbit because we only have
51:17
Speaker 1: time for one tidbit because of the time. Okay, now
51:20
Speaker 1: you've been– okay, here we go. All right, enough with
51:23
Speaker 1: the music. Now, you have been appointed the Minister of
51:27
Speaker 1: Minor Inconveniences.
51:29
Speaker 3: Every day.
51:29
Speaker 1: You cannot– Okay, now you cannot fix healthcare, housing, or wages,
51:34
Speaker 1: but you can permanently eliminate one tiny annoyance from society. Now,
51:40
Speaker 1: this is what the Internet said.
51:41
Speaker 3: I got an idea.
51:42
Speaker 1: Okay, well, before you give your idea, this is what
51:47
Speaker 1: people on the Internet said.
51:48
Speaker 3: I have an idea.
51:48
Speaker 1: Okay. I have one idea.
51:54
Speaker 3: Back off, man.
51:57
Speaker 1: Okay, one person on the Internet said, Serial bags need
52:01
Speaker 1: zipper closures. That's one person said. Another person said all
52:05
Speaker 1: printers use the same style ink cartridge. Wouldn't that be nice?
52:09
Speaker 4: Ours don't use that.
52:12
Speaker 3: All right.
52:12
Speaker 1: Well, that would even be better. Also, physical buttons on
52:16
Speaker 1: car dashboards instead of touchscreens.
52:20
Speaker 3: How about that?
52:21
Speaker 1: Any of you can think of one thing that you'd
52:24
Speaker 1: like to get rid of from society? That's an annoyance
52:28
Speaker 1: to you?
52:29
Speaker 3: Well, now that you mentioned it, yeah. What? Want to
52:33
Speaker 3: get rid of me? I love when he looks like that.
52:41
Speaker 1: Okay.
52:42
Speaker 3: I don't know if you know, Henry, you and I
52:43
Speaker 3: are so opposite, it scares me.
52:46
Speaker 1: Well, you've heard the phrase opposites attract.
52:48
Speaker 3: It's got to be.
52:49
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, look at the odd couple, Felix and Oscar.
52:55
Speaker 1: How different they were. Tony Randall and Jack Klugman. Boy,
52:59
Speaker 1: that was some show.
53:00
Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
53:00
Speaker 1: Yeah.
53:01
Speaker 3: All righty.
53:02
Speaker 1: Okay, so I did do one Thursday tidbit, and we'll
53:05
Speaker 1: have more next week, but we better get to my
53:07
Speaker 1: features to close the show.
53:08
Speaker 3: Oh, please. The end is near.
53:11
Speaker 1: All righty. I'm going to look for those tidbits.
53:14
Speaker 3: They slipped right out of your little hand.
53:16
Speaker 1: All righty. But the good news is I'll save them
53:19
Speaker 1: for next week. Oh, yeah.
53:23
Speaker 3: All right.
53:23
Speaker 1: So let's get to it. It is October 15th. Again,
53:26
Speaker 1: today is Open Enrollment Day. All of you who are.
53:30
Speaker 4: We don't bother with that. We keep the same insurance.
53:33
Speaker 1: Well, you keep things very easy.
53:35
Speaker 4: Yeah.
53:37
Speaker 1: As Donna says, easy peasy.
53:38
Speaker 3: That's right.
53:39
Speaker 4: It's goofy.
53:42
Speaker 3: Okay.
53:43
Speaker 1: And let's see.
53:45
Speaker 3: All right.
53:45
Speaker 1: So let's get to today, October 15th. On this date
53:48
Speaker 1: of 1939, New York Municipal Airport was dedicated and It
53:55
Speaker 1: didn't stay with New York Municipal Airport. They later changed
53:58
Speaker 1: the name to LaGuardia Airport. Name for the mayor of
54:03
Speaker 1: New York. LaGuardia.
54:05
Speaker 3: Mandami Airport now. Okay.
54:09
Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to name an airport after
54:10
Speaker 1: this guy.
54:14
Speaker 3: All right.
54:14
Speaker 1: Some mayor we got. Anyway.
54:15
Speaker 3: All right.
54:17
Speaker 1: Anyway, but that was, yes. Fiorello LaGuardia. In fact, they
54:22
Speaker 1: even had a Broadway show.
54:23
Speaker 3: Ooh.
54:25
Speaker 1: And Tom Bosley starred on that show, and he was
54:28
Speaker 1: from Happy Days.
54:29
Speaker 3: Get out of here.
54:30
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, today, in the world of television, today is
54:34
Speaker 1: a big milestone event happening to a TV show that's
54:40
Speaker 1: 75 years after it premiered on TV today. Sorry, Slick.
54:44
Speaker 4: No.
54:45
Speaker 1: It's not the Dylan the Rooster show. That show is
54:48
Speaker 1: still on the air today, 75 years later. Anybody know
54:51
Speaker 1: what show I'm talking about?
54:52
Speaker 4: Ed Sullivan?
54:52
Speaker 3: Ed Sullivan? No. Johnny Carson?
54:57
Speaker 1: No, he started in 1962. It was one of the
55:01
Speaker 1: greatest comedy shows of all time in my book. And
55:06
Speaker 1: it starred four main people. And they were living in
55:09
Speaker 1: New York City in an apartment.
55:11
Speaker 3: I don't know.
55:14
Speaker 1: I Love Lucy.
55:15
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
55:16
Speaker 1: Yes. Today, believe it or not, October 15th, this show
55:20
Speaker 1: premiered in 1951. So today is the 75th anniversary of
55:24
Speaker 1: I Love Lucy.
55:25
Speaker 3: Wow.
55:25
Speaker 1: And it's still in reruns. And just to give you
55:27
Speaker 1: some perspective.
55:29
Speaker 3: Go ahead.
55:30
Speaker 1: On this, Lucy Arnaz, Lucy's daughter, when this show started,
55:35
Speaker 1: she was just three months old. Wow. Because she was
55:38
Speaker 1: born three months on July 17th in 1951. Wow. And
55:41
Speaker 1: today she's 75. Wow. Desi June is here. Wasn't even
55:50
Speaker 1: born yet. He came in. He was born on January 19, 1953.
55:55
Speaker 1: He's now 73, Desi Arnaz Jr. And the only person
55:59
Speaker 1: who's still alive from I Love Lucy is little Ricky.
56:02
Speaker 1: The actor's name was Keith Thibodeau. Keith Thibodeau. Actually, he
56:07
Speaker 1: was born on December 1, 1950. So he's 75. So
56:13
Speaker 1: he was 10 months old when the show started.
56:15
Speaker 3: Wow.
56:16
Speaker 1: And he was like five or six when he started
56:18
Speaker 1: the show. He's now 75, and he'll turn 76 on
56:22
Speaker 1: December 1st.
56:24
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
56:24
Speaker 1: Just to give you perspective. And, of course, all the
56:26
Speaker 1: other main cast people have passed on.
56:30
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yes.
56:31
Speaker 1: And even Barbara Eden was on that show. Yeah. Yes.
56:36
Speaker 1: She was on that show many, many years ago.
56:41
Speaker 4: She came out of the bottle.
56:43
Speaker 1: No, it was way before then.
56:45
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know.
56:47
Speaker 1: Also, okay, so that's a milestone. And it's still on TV.
56:49
Speaker 1: It reruns today. I still watch that show. It's so great.
56:53
Speaker 1: Also on this date in 1966. Well, you know, some
56:58
Speaker 1: of the old shows are better than the shows we
57:00
Speaker 1: have today, believe it or not.
57:01
Speaker 3: I can't argue that.
57:02
Speaker 1: Yeah. And 60 years ago today, 1966, President Lyndon Johnson
57:06
Speaker 1: signed a bill creating the Department of Transportation.
57:10
Speaker 3: How about that? Okay.
57:12
Speaker 1: Well, it's still around. In 1993 on this date, South
57:15
Speaker 1: African President F.W. de Klerk and African National Congress President
57:19
Speaker 1: Nelson Mandela were named winners of the Nobel Peace Prize
57:23
Speaker 1: for their efforts to end the apartheid system in South Africa.
57:27
Speaker 1: Good for them.
57:27
Speaker 3: How did that work out?
57:29
Speaker 1: Well, it did– I think it worked out OK.
57:33
Speaker 3: Well, you're wrong.
57:35
Speaker 1: Well, for the most part.
57:37
Speaker 3: No, not even any part. OK. One of the worst
57:40
Speaker 3: problems they've ever been in history.
57:42
Speaker 1: Well, I'm trying to be optimistic about it. Well, yeah.
57:46
Speaker 3: All right.
57:46
Speaker 1: Also, I'm trying to put a good spin on this.
57:48
Speaker 3: It's so messed up down there now. All right.
57:50
Speaker 1: Also, on this date of 1997. If you take the.
57:52
Speaker 3: British out, you lose the law, and then all of
57:54
Speaker 3: a sudden it's like open season.
57:57
Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of the British, on this date
57:58
Speaker 1: of 1997, British Royal Air Force pilot Andy Green broke
58:02
Speaker 1: the land speed record by driving a jet-powered car faster
58:05
Speaker 1: than the speed of sound. How about that? Now, to
58:08
Speaker 1: this day in music history, in 1955, the Grand Ole
58:11
Speaker 1: Opry premiered on ABC TV. Well, 71 years later, that's
58:16
Speaker 1: something else. In 1968 on this date, in 1968, Stevie
58:20
Speaker 1: Wonder's single, Once in My Life, was released.
58:22
Speaker 3: One of my favorites. Didn't Jim Matthews go to the
58:24
Speaker 3: Grand Ole Opry one day?
58:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was there, yes.
58:27
Speaker 3: He was in the parking lot. He got arrested.
58:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he went there when they were closed
58:33
Speaker 1: or something, but he went to the building. I don't
58:35
Speaker 1: know if he went to see a live show.
58:36
Speaker 3: That's more than we've done.
58:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can say that again.
58:39
Speaker 3: That's more than we've done.
58:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay. Now listen to this. On the stage in 1971,
58:44
Speaker 1: Ricky Nelson, great Ricky Nelson, the singer, he was booed
58:48
Speaker 1: when he performed New Material at an oldies show at
58:51
Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden in New York City.
58:52
Speaker 3: Really?
58:53
Speaker 1: So a lot of fans, when you go to these shows,
58:55
Speaker 1: all they want to do is hear the old songs
58:58
Speaker 1: from all these rockers out there. A lot of these
59:02
Speaker 1: guys and gals want to sing some new stuff.
59:03
Speaker 3: But they can't even do it because when you see
59:05
Speaker 3: Mick Jagger, what, he's 105? Yeah, that's right.
59:07
Speaker 1: Okay. Yeah, the thing is they want to play some.
59:12
Speaker 3: That's right. Have you seen Frankie Valli lately? Oh, yeah, yes.
59:18
Speaker 3: He stands there like a statue and his eyes are
59:20
Speaker 3: bugged out. My eyes adored you. And you look at him,
59:24
Speaker 3: his eyes are all bugged out. Sometimes you need to
59:28
Speaker 3: hang it up. You know, when you get way too
59:30
Speaker 3: far in the game, you need to hang it up.
59:32
Speaker 1: Well, I can say Tony Bennett was as well as
59:35
Speaker 1: his 90s, and he still sounded great.
59:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, but then he couldn't remember the words.
59:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the trouble.
59:42
Speaker 3: Anyway, but Ricky Nelson said– And then he thought Lady
59:44
Speaker 3: Gaga was nice. That's right.
59:47
Speaker 1: Anyway, so they actually booed Ricky Nelson because he sang
59:51
Speaker 1: some new material, and they just wanted to hear all
59:53
Speaker 1: the old stuff.
59:54
Speaker 3: It was kind of like Pat Boone when he came
59:57
Speaker 3: up there dressed as a metal rocker and sang metal songs. Yeah.
1:00:00
Speaker 3: I mean, he's an old gospel singer. Yeah. He'd stand
1:00:03
Speaker 3: up there all wrinkled and everything.
1:00:04
Speaker 1: But the thing is, I give him credit for trying
1:00:06
Speaker 1: something new.
1:00:07
Speaker 3: He had a choker chain on made out of spikes. Yeah.
1:00:09
Speaker 1: I would like to hear some new stuff from some
1:00:11
Speaker 1: of these people. That's just me.
1:00:13
Speaker 3: That's kind of over the top.
1:00:14
Speaker 4: Oh.
1:00:14
Speaker 1: Anyway, also on this day in the 1970s.
1:00:16
Speaker 3: He got a free press, though. That's pretty cool.
1:00:18
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1:00:18
Speaker 3: Maybe we can do something like that, Henry. Can I
1:00:20
Speaker 3: get you a choker chain out there, buddy?
1:00:22
Speaker 1: Hmm?
1:00:24
Speaker 3: Not really.
1:00:26
Speaker 1: Also on this day in 1977, Slip, Slide, and Away
1:00:28
Speaker 1: by Paul Simon was released. And in 1987, almost, 1987,
1:00:32
Speaker 1: Jerry Garcia from Grateful Dead opened a series of solo
1:00:36
Speaker 1: shows on Broadway. Okay, now Celebrity Birthdays. We sing Happy Birthday.
1:00:42
Speaker 3: Okay.
1:00:42
Speaker 5: Okay, you can stop now.
1:00:53
Speaker 1: All right, thank you. No, it took us long. I
1:00:55
Speaker 1: went way over about I Love Lucy.
1:00:58
Speaker 3: No, you were over trying to find those tidbits. That's right.
1:01:02
Speaker 1: I'm going to find them after the show. Anyway, but
1:01:05
Speaker 1: I did get one tidbit in, so I did my bit.
1:01:09
Speaker 1: The thing is that I can't believe that today is
1:01:12
Speaker 1: the 75th anniversary of the premiere of I Love Lucy.
1:01:15
Speaker 3: And that little Ricky is now 75 years.
1:01:16
Speaker 1: Old, soon to be 76.
1:01:17
Speaker 3: That shocks you.
1:01:23
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Today, we have these celebrities
