are you kids morning? How are you? I'm glad, I'm going to
2:25
glad, honored to be here for a second time. Second time. Yes,
2:30
that's a true first person in history here. If you do the Friday
2:34
Fun House, this is the show on Fridays where we just don't talk news
2:38
or politics or anything unless we absolutely have to. We just we try to
2:40
have a little bit of fun. That's what we do. Yeah, your
2:43
list, because you can only do that dried up here like we got to
2:46
get our bad. Well, now you are going to be doing your AMC
2:51
House for Tatas tonight. Very excited, that's why you're here. I wore
2:53
pink today and I didn't even think about that and how appropriate. Well,
2:57
somebody that frequently wears pink is Chris Lawrence. Yeah, and for Camo,
3:00
he loves the digital pink camera Chris Lawrence is here to talk about it on
3:06
you as that is your cheeks. I don't wear pink anything ever he's wearing
3:13
for any reason whatsoever. I do not wear pink. Your cheeks are pink
3:19
right now? Whatever? Are you one of those guys that says I can't
3:21
wear pink? Yes, I am. That's okay. I've got a not
3:27
Safe for radio routine that I do about that about But so I can't do
3:30
it on the on the show. I don't care. It's not going to
3:32
change me. Yeah, well, I'll do it at some point. My
3:36
boss is on the other My boss was producing the show today, so he's
3:38
my boss too. You think I care? I'm not wearing Pinkuse this is
3:44
the first time I've ever actually been on a broadcast with Amanda Baron, So
3:46
I'm pretty excited, is it? Really? We've never done this before.
3:49
We've never been on the air at the same time ever. I remember the
3:52
first time we ever talked, though, Really, do you want that story
3:54
or got to be scary? Sure? Go ahead, make it quick.
3:58
Called the newsroom was early one morning and he's asking questions and he said,
4:02
you don't even know who I am? And I said, yes, I
4:05
do. I'll never forget. I could still hear you saying it, and
4:09
I was like, I know who you are, mister Lawrence. I know
4:11
who you are, Lawrence. And then I got your cell phone number and
4:15
the rest is history. Yeah. I don't think I ever have been called
4:19
mister Lawrence. Well, okay, mister Lawrence, would you like to talk
4:24
high school football tonight? Yes, that's probably the best way to escape this
4:27
conversation. What do you got tonight? We've got Spring Valley at George Washington,
4:30
a pivotal game for both these teams. Spring Valley comes in they're three
4:33
and four. GW is four and three. Now GW owns a couple of
4:36
really quality wins because they beat Hurricane and they knocked off Parkersburg, So both
4:43
of them have a lot to play for tonight with the end of the season
4:46
on the horizon, just a couple of weeks left in the regular season,
4:48
and the winner of this game tonight this will go a long way toward postseason
4:53
positioning and you know, navigating what path you're going to have to take to
4:58
go further into the playoffs. So be a really big game tonight. It'll
5:00
be interesting to see if George Washington can corral the running game of Spring Valley,
5:09
and whether Spring Valley can slow down the skill positions of George Washington,
5:14
because of those are the strings of both teams. Spring Valley is a team
5:16
that likes to slow everything down, control the football and not allow the other
5:21
team to have a lot of possessions, whereas gw has got the power of
5:26
the big play and they can strike at any time in a matter of seconds.
5:30
So it's like lightning in a bottle sometimes when you watch George Washington.
5:34
So she'll be fun and we'll be on the air at seven tonight, kickoff
5:38
at seven point thirty, and it'll be Matt Guitar, Murphy and Jarrett Lewis
5:42
and myself. On one hand, you can say it's a nasty night for
5:46
high school football, But on the other hand, you can say this is
5:47
what football is supposed to be. Rainy, dreary, fall like weather.
5:51
I love it. I talked to Tony about this this morning, regarding Tomorrow's
5:56
Mountaineer game against Oklahoma State, and I said, do you think it's going
5:59
to have any impact? He said, well, it's going to be very
6:00
typical from mid October, you know, it's going to be cooler, it
6:03
might be raining, it might be a little windy, but that's kind of
6:06
what we look for in Yeah, in West Virginia this time of year,
6:10
that's what you get. And of course after the game, stick around for
6:12
Fred and Dave Jacklin with a Metro News game night, how about West Virginia
6:15
outdoors tomorrow morning. I got a couple of cool stories about big bucks.
6:19
A guy from down in your country, he went off to Kentucky to college
6:26
and he just finished up, but he brought back a lady with him.
6:29
Actually she lives in Nashville, but it's his girlfriend and he brought her in
6:32
last week and she killed a gigantic Logan County buck. She's from out in
6:38
western Kentucky. And I get an opportunity to quiz her about her first impression
6:43
of walking those mountains in Logan County to try and hunt. That was kind
6:46
of funny, from the flatlands to the hill country. And then another guy
6:49
from Raleigh County is going to join us to tell the story of a buck
6:51
he killed, not really a very gigantic buck, but he killed it in
6:56
self defense because the dang thing nearly killed him. So we'll have that story
6:59
on Tomar as well. Sounds like that's a that's a TV story waiting there
7:02
going to happen this baron. Yeah, Chris Lawrence scooping me again. All
7:06
right, all right, Chris, mister Lawrence. I appreciate you being here.
7:11
We'll talk soon. Man. Thanks, I have a good broadcast tonight.
7:13
Thank you. It's always a pleasure. Man, A nice seeing you.
7:15
Good to see you. Why do you never say it's nice to see
7:16
me? Because it's not? Okay? All right? Five, any Live
7:19
is brought to you. Part about Husband's Pizza. This month at your favorite
7:23
husband's get a large eighteen inch pepper Ony pizza and pizza d only twenty one
7:27
ninety nine. Find your local Husband's Pizza for dining in delivery pickup at Huston's
7:30
Pizza dot com. See the disrespect I have here from I'm so sorry.
7:33
You deserve better, to deserve I'll deserve my hell heck of a lot better
7:39
real quick. Upon the high school on sports not high school. Last night
7:42
the Marshall game, there was a young man who I know very well,
7:46
JJ Roberts from Cable Midland went off to play at wake Forest, came back
7:50
to play at Marshall. He suffered a horrific injury in the Marshall game last
7:55
night. He did, but I'm happy to report that his mother posted on
8:00
social media that he seems to be doing fine. I mean to see that
8:03
hit, it was just one of the It wasn't a cheap hit. It's
8:05
just one of those things. He was just in the pile and he bounced
8:07
off and had no feeling at all in his arms or legs. It was
8:11
horrific to see. Happy to report at least that's what his mother posted on
8:15
social media, that he has feeling in his extremity. So, and he's
8:18
a good young man. I got to know him through my one of my
8:22
other jobs I have, and and he's just he's just a great, great
8:26
young man, local guy and kind of guy that you are always pulling for
8:31
in life. And so a lot of thoughts and prayers went up for JJ
8:33
Roberts last night for Marshall. But he's apparently going to be okay. So
8:37
that number eleven defensive back and just redshirt junior ice to see him home.
8:43
Yeah, and if that was horrible and he gave that thumbs up, it
8:45
was a simul leaf. But our sports director Kessie would sad you could hear
8:46
a pin drop? Oh yeah, she said it was just really, really
8:50
intense, and I'm glad to know his mom posted that this morning. Yeah,
8:54
let's go to Hannah Gardner with our domy please. Ped of the Week
8:56
from the Kennal Charleston Newman Association. Hannah, Amanda, Amanda, Hannah,
9:01
good morning, Good morning, Hannah's about Hannah's the biggest stars you are now
9:05
you realize that she was doing the Lord's work. I'm telling you because helping
9:09
all these animals is just so awesome. So we appreciate everything that you guys
9:13
do. I know I call there about animals all the time. We appreciate
9:18
you. It's definitely hard work, but it's very rewarded. It is in
9:20
that face. This morning. You have the story our pet that we're trying
9:26
to get adopted this week. His name is Sam. Picture posted on Dave
9:28
Allen Radio and Facebook and at Dave A seventy on ex that's the artist formally
9:33
known as Twitter. Tell us about Sam, Hannah, because this is a
9:35
special All of our animals are specialle this one is especially special. If you
9:39
will go, Yes, he is especially special. But he came to our
9:45
shelter. He actually came in as astray, but he had a really strong
9:50
like limp in his walk as well as a headtope, so we were sure
9:56
that maybe he had been hit by like a car or something had happened.
10:01
But after our medical team looked at him and they assessed him and everything,
10:05
they came to find out that he what looks like he had a previous injury
10:11
that didn't heal correctly. So he's just been kind of like that for a
10:16
while. It seems he's very used to being like that. He definitely gets
10:22
around perfectly fine, but he just doesn't use that leg or anything like that
10:28
now. His head tilt and stuff. They they think that that's gonna be
10:31
a long term, maybe even a lifelong thing, but it doesn't affect him
10:37
really in any way. So he's definitely a very outgoing boy, but he's
10:43
also a very lazy boy. He's about eight years old. Like I said,
10:46
he came in at astray. He's not fixed yet, but he will
10:50
be before he goes home. He's microchipped and vaccinated. He's ready to go
10:56
on all that, but I'm not sure exactly how he is to dogs due
11:00
to the special needs that he does have medically, like his arm and his
11:05
headfilt and stuff. We don't want to put him in our playgroups and risk
11:09
something happening to him trying to play with another dog or something, so we
11:13
just kind of take him out on our own and he stays in the back
11:16
office. So he's he's special in that way as well. He gets to
11:20
kind of hang out in the back office where where I am, so I
11:24
get to see him every day. So if you do have another dog,
11:28
you're more than welcome to do a meet and greet where you can bring your
11:33
dog up to the shelter and we can meet or kind of just see how
11:37
they do together. I love that he's lazy. It kind of is like
11:41
the perfect You know, that little head tilt makes him so endearing too,
11:43
I can only imagine. Can you tell that he's just appreciative of all of
11:48
this attention? Yes, yes, he definitely loves getting all the attention,
11:52
and whenever you walk into the room the back office, if you don't give
11:56
him attention, he will make it know that you didn't give him a tension.
12:01
He definitely loves listening to music. He starts to get up and get
12:05
excited. So that's one very cute He's an answer. He is. He
12:09
is, we call him a little little butt. Answer is already doing the
12:11
leans there you go. Yeah, but he he when, for example,
12:18
when somebody comes to the door, he he doesn't get up. Obviously he's
12:20
got some special needs, so he can't really hop up to it and get
12:24
up and greet you and stuff like that. But he definitely will bark at
12:30
the door and let you know that someone is there. He doesn't really act
12:33
upon anything. He just kind of lets you know, like, hey,
12:35
someone's here and I don't know who they are. Do something about it,
12:39
That's what he says. Yeah, he says, you do something about it.
12:41
Had I got a text here because you know, as I said,
12:45
you get fan mail here in the form of text that says, we start
12:48
by the shelter yesterday to drop off donations, and we always go in the
12:52
cat room. There were two cats that both had cruelty neglect on their cards.
12:56
Can Hamma possibly tell us what happened to those sweet kiddies? I think
12:58
they should be adopted together. Do you are you familiar with those Well,
13:03
I know that we have a couple that are on a cruelty neglect told like
13:09
that. So I'm not exactly sure which one, like which cases it could
13:13
be from, but I know that we do have one and one big group
13:18
that came in and they're from a cruelty case. But you know, we're
13:22
not allowed to say much about that other than that they are. They'll be
13:26
available eventually, It's just a matter of time and it depends on, you
13:31
know, how everything goes. But typically if they're in the same cage together
13:35
or something, or if they seem to be bonded, then we will list
13:39
them as bonded so that way people will know and we'll make sure that everybody
13:43
can see that. But when they're on cruelty neglect hold, we don't really
13:46
put much about them, just because they can't adopted really anyways. All right,
13:50
Hannah, as always a pleasure to have you on the show, and
13:52
the picture of Sam is posted. We'll talk again next week. Thanks a
13:56
lot, awesome thank you and a gardener again from charlest new Man Association.
14:01
I do want to bring this up next Saturday in hand and I will talk
14:03
about it in detail next Saturday. The twenty eighth Dutch miller Subaru over Patrick
14:07
Street. He got an event with the Animal Shelter going on starting a noon,
14:09
their fifth annual adoption event. It's an opportunity for you to pick out
14:15
a dog for your family. Plus you're going to do a trunk or treat
14:16
for kids. And there is a food truck there for those in need that
14:20
is sponsored by the Underprivileged Children Foundation. And there's music. West Virginia's own
14:26
Emmy Davis is going to be performing there as well. Now that's all next
14:28
week and Hanna and I will talk about it on next week's segment. It's
14:31
Saturday, the twenty eighth at Dutch Miller Subaru, Patrick Street, Plouse and
14:35
Charleston with the Canal Charleston Humane Association. So hats off to those folks at
14:39
Dutch Miller for making that happen all right, Now again our dog this week
14:43
picture posts to Dave All on radio and Facebook and at Dave A seventy on
14:46
X It's Sam, eight years old, came in as astray, not fixed
14:50
yet but will be micro chipped and vaccinated some special needs. Medically, we
14:54
don't know how he is with the dogs. Bring your dog up, we'll
14:58
do a meet and great his shoulder and kind of arm area is broken.
15:03
It's an old injury, but that's just the way it heals old football injury.
15:07
That's an old football injury. And it has a head tilt to the
15:09
side. That picture though, you know, if you like, when you
15:11
buy a picture frame and it comes with the pictures that are already in it,
15:16
that's what the picture of Sam looks like. It's like the picture that
15:18
would be in the frame when you buy. At the start, go back
15:20
by Sam. He's a good looking dog. And again you know, like
15:22
she said, he's kind of lazy, which eight, that's nothing wrong with
15:26
that. I'd want to be exactly I think. I am five. Eny

So well, tell you tell us about how before we before we do
20:18
funny stuff, tell us about tell you well? I mean, the greatest
20:22
coincidence for Charleston, West Virginia is that when I left my day job as
20:26
an executive thirty four years ago, and of course I turned in my resignation
20:30
and the boss said, what are you gonna do? Is I'm gonna be
20:33
a comedian And he laughed and and I said, that'll be one hundred dollars
20:38
please as all the professional now. But I happened to get in with the
20:44
Comedy Zone chain and my very first paid professional gig as a full time comedian
20:51
was Charleston, West Virginia. Really yes, and that the Comedy Zone which
20:56
was a holiday in in downtown Charleston way back when. And in nineteen ninety
21:03
I started the big tour. I had Beckley on Wednesday, Parkersburg on Thursday,
21:11
and Charleston Friday and Saturday. So I knew I had made the big
21:15
time. Sounds like a lot of TV careers, yeah you know, yeah,
21:18
yeah, so this is kind of a real like thirty four years later
21:25
and many trips through back through when they had the Comedy Zone here in Charleston,
21:30
I've been here, but yeah. And also I was a professional wrestler
21:34
for three years and I wrestled at the at the Charleston Civic Center. That's
21:40
really all of times. Yeah. Well, and oddly enough, that's why
21:42
Nicky Walters is here because she's got a pro wrestling event as a fundraiser,
21:48
and so Nicki is who's over here in the co we put Nicki? Nobody
21:52
puts Nicky in. Nobody nobody puts it. But Nicki is actually into the
21:56
professional wrestling thing herself. That's why she's here. Well, Nikki I was,
21:59
I was uh worked for the old w c W out of Atlanta and
22:03
I was the Inferno and my record was oh and two sixty four. Right,
22:10
that's impressive. Hey, you were making him laugh in the ring too.
22:12
Let me explain the check cleared and when and when they tell you how
22:18
to how to and and the amazing part was how it actually started. I
22:21
actually started as the ring announcer. I was the guy who you know,
22:25
brought the guys the ring, and we set up an angle where Abdullah the
22:30
butcher, if you can believe, I was going to clothesline me on the
22:36
and then the good guy would come in and rescue me. Well, Abby,
22:38
as we all love to lovingly call him, gets really psyched up for
22:42
his matches, and he picked me up and threw me out of the ring
22:48
onto the cement floor, and uh, you know, I was it hurt.
22:52
And the promoter came in and went, man, you really sold that,
22:56
and I said yeah, because it hurt that course, and they said,
23:00
well, you know, do you want to get trained and doing this?
23:03
And next thing, you know, I spent about three years between doing
23:07
stand up comedy and and doing professional wrestling. Wow, we have a lot
23:12
in commonly now because I also not as a wrestler, but as I spent
23:17
thirty years as a ring announcer, so I've done ring announcing, I have.
23:22
I've done some comedy, not not very well, but I've done actually
23:25
done some comedy. So have you ever done radio? I mean, perhaps
23:29
you're my father, could be you know, no, I'll probably you know.
23:36
I know, I think I know where I was over the last thirty
23:38
years. Well I did, yet I did get surprised on that one too.
23:41
I have to tell you. I was in Greensboro, North Carolina.
23:45
I'm shaking hands at the end of the show, and this lady about my
23:48
age comes up and says, do you remember me? I'm Janet Janet and
23:55
I just went and you know, no matter how good of a life you
23:57
have lived, that oh crap meter goes through your head, going, what
24:03
you know, irs, restraining orders, you know, anything I can think
24:08
of? And she goes, no, the YMCA camp nineteen seventy five,
24:15
and I and you know, that's not a clue. And for me,
24:18
because I immediately knew, believe it or not, at the age of twelve
24:22
going on thirteen, that was the first girl I ever kissed, and my
24:26
total random She was in my sou in Greensboro, twenty five years later,
24:32
isn't that some Yeah, and so I'm just glad that you said kissed on
24:36
my show. I just didn't say anything else. Okay, well it's thirty
24:40
you know, it was nineteen seventy five. I thought that was going.
24:44
You know, when you're twelve years old, that was going all the way.
24:47
Yeah, well you're getting well, well a lot from southern West Virginia.
24:49
So it's we started early. Now I understand what I understand. You
24:53
know, I was from Georgia, so we just you know, I was
24:57
just real happy, you know. I was a fat kid. I was
25:00
happy to get kid. I was going, Okay, we've done everything we
25:03
need to do. We held hands on the way back up the hill.
25:07
I was I thought that was it. I didn't know there was more to
25:11
it than that. Well, you left an impression on her, Yeah,
25:14
yes I did, and she uh you know. Then then she introduced me
25:18
to her her extremely handsome husband, and I went, okay, well I
25:22
can see she moved up the laser, you know, as that does he
25:26
have your wit though, Because let's be honest, we're very much looking forward
25:30
to hearing you tonight. Well, you know, I'm the best comedian in
25:33
my price range. I love the confidence. Yeah, I can't be that,
25:37
you know, I'm you know, I mean well, I mean honestly,
25:41
goodness. People don't understand that there are a lot of us out there
25:44
that do this full time and don't have big star I mean yeah, I've
25:48
you know, had my time on television and just recently on an episode of
25:53
Ted Lasso and uh and and everything like that. But we aren't recognized,
26:00
you know. But this is this is our job, and we just go
26:03
from place to place and do our shows and and then try to make a
26:07
living at it and keep the mortgage guy and the irs one step trying us
26:12
to stay. So for tatsas is tonight, there's also auctions going on.
26:18
Miss Baron here will be serving as the MC tonight Holiday inn in Sweets and
26:22
South Charleston VIP doors open at six thirty, general emissions seven thirty. Complete
26:26
information available on their Facebook page for the West Virginia Breast Healthcare Initiative. Jazz
26:30
gil I think of my pronunce Jazz Gill is on one of the other comedians.
26:34
It's going to be there tonight, So al, what's on your mind?
26:38
Give us a little bit here what so what what? What? What
26:41
can people expect when they come out tonight? We don't want to give it
26:42
away, but what's on your mind these days? Well, I mean,
26:45
you know, obviously, you know, we all's comedians got kind of stuck
26:51
in that two year gap during COVID and people don't understand as I was just
26:56
explaining what it was like to have to to do comedy via zoom yeah yeah,
27:03
yeah, because the agent will tell you to how to set up your
27:07
camera and they said make it look like a theater, and I'm like,
27:11
I'm just trying to avoid my toilet not being shown, you know, on
27:15
the screen when I'm getting in, you know, on there. And then
27:19
these people pop in and they don't know how to and especially I'm no offense
27:25
to older people. I'm an older guy, but they don't know how to
27:26
work it. You know, they don't know, and so they don't mute
27:30
when they're supposed to mute, and then they say things you can hear them
27:33
and it is comedy, right, So and there's always that gap, you
27:37
know, there's a timing gap in that. So you got that. But
27:41
my my favorite thing was the second part of the you know, we thought
27:45
we were coming out of it. We got that one in twenty twenty one
27:48
where they just came out and said, it is this one so contagious that
27:53
if you are going to have romance that evening, that while you're having romance,
28:00
you should wear a mask. And I said to myself, I've been
28:04
married for thirty nine years and that has always been the rule at our house.
28:11
No differences summer camp. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so you
28:17
probably had plenty of masks. Well, I was happy with COVID because only
28:21
wear half a mask instead of the whole mask. And you know, and
28:25
that's now the pandemic's over. I'm back to the whole mask again. And
28:29
uh, you know so it's a nice yeah. Yeah, so I mean,
28:33
you know, but that's those are you know. What you'll hear my
28:37
show tonight is a lot of stuff about just stories that we all go through,
28:41
you know, because being a big guy, you know, my my
28:45
thing. You know, I flew into the uh Chuck Jaeger International Regional Airport
28:51
truck stop and launder Matt and and they still have the you know. My
28:56
favorite thing that they said to me is, you know you got to you
29:00
know, a fat guy and they go, you got to take your shoes
29:03
off, and I'm going I don't have this kind of time. I'm going
29:06
to miss my flight if I have to bend over and take my shoes off
29:10
at the I mean, we can, we have vaccines and AI, we
29:12
can see people from satellites, but I still have to take my shoes off.
29:17
Dear, have you ever seen a fat terrorist put a bomb in his
29:19
shoes? That doesn't happen. It doesn't, It just doesn't happen, you
29:23
know. So, uh, you know, I just want to see your
29:26
pedicure. Yeah, well I think, yeah, well that's my favorite.
29:33
Well it's being that's my favorite. You go into the scanning machine in there,
29:36
and there's honestly now a sign that says the TSA technician cannot see your
29:41
private area. That's what these sign says. And I said, I can't
29:47
see my private area. You know what I said. I'm looking for you
29:52
guys to take a picture for me, just so I know, you know,
29:56
I hope we're not violating any rules. Oh you're f boss is producing
30:00
the show day, so it's all good. Its hopefully we're still good.
30:03
But I mean, you know those are but it's real life it's real life
30:07
stories, you know. And my mom, being from North Georgia, moved
30:14
to Florida to retire at age eighty seven, and she's in one of those
30:17
old people's cities, you know, she lives in one of those old people
30:21
and I mean there there's some old I thought one lady to act her age
30:26
and she died, so uh, you know, you know these are old
30:30
people. These are very old people. So anyway, Yeah, it's just
30:37

35:21
a kid doing good? Doing good? This is an exciting weekend coming up.
35:24
So there's so many things going on in the area this weekend. I
35:27
mean, wu has got homecoming over in Putnam. Candy Buffalo's got their fall
35:30
festival going on, we got Bridge Day going on this weekend. Uh,
35:36
justs for tatas tonight and you're gonna you're gonna pile on it by talking about
35:40
wrestling. Yes, so the wrestling show is one aspect of our big fundraiser
35:46
for horses this weekend. And I realized those two things may not seem like
35:51
they go together, but been in wrestling, they have the main event.
35:57
Yeah, you're performing tonight at the That's that's why I only did three comedy
36:02
shows. But go ahead and go ahead. It was on his feet,
36:06
then go ahead. So we're doing a horsemanship clinic Saturday day. And where's
36:12
all this happening. This is all Winfield Riding Club in Kunfield near the Wendy's.
36:15
So we're doing a horsemanship clinic earlier in the day, and since we
36:19
already have the facility for the weekend, we started incorporating what's called the barnyard
36:23
beat Down into the into the weekend. And so it's a wrestling show in
36:29
a barn. Okay, so you're like in the dirt, you're in the
36:32
area where the horses ride, and you're sitting there in your camping chair or
36:37
on our bleachers watching the show. Okay, And so we're gonna have the
36:40
main event is a barnyard bunk house match. Okay, Now I know what
36:45
a bunk house match is, Amanda. You may not know what a bunk
36:46
house match is. Explain to the people on a bunk house matches, Nicky.
36:51
Well, just in layman's terms, things are going to get a little
36:52
crazier than they would in a normal match. So we're gonna have doors.
36:57
We're gonna have a door wrapped in barbed wire, chair wrapped in barbed wire,
37:00
and so the action very well may exit the ring. So and the
37:07
wrestlers normally wear like street clothes. I mean, it's like blue jeans,
37:10
cowboy boots in the dirt you'll be in the ring, but then there's a
37:15
ring yeah, okay, but then they also exit the ring usually during these
37:20
types of wine because it's very much anything goes and it's not every day you
37:23
see a door wrapped in barbed wire at a wrestling I mean responsible for that
37:30
aspect of it. Actually a colleague of ours, Elizabeth, I'm going to
37:34
be asking her. I am not surprised this. Elizabeth's just happened to have
37:38
a door wrapped in barbed wire. She's our go to, like barbed wire
37:42
assistant. Well, that's that'll look good on a business card. He's very
37:45
handy. She's very handy. Other skills barbed wire assistant. Right, So
37:51
we've got Otis Koger coming in to face Ron Mathis in the the bunk House
37:55
match, okay, and Otis hasn't been in this area for a bit.
38:00
His brother is Atticus Koger from four four O Fame. Okay. And then
38:06
we also have the Lynch Boys. So last year when I was here,
38:09
we talked about Alan Lynch and he made an appearance at the Barnyard beat Down.
38:15
So for the first time in a decade, both of his brothers are
38:17
going to be Jordan. I know the Lynch Boys very well from for my
38:21
days in wrestling. Yeah, mine too, from twenty years ago. So
38:24
it's super There are three brothers and they're all pro wrestlers. But they're all
38:29
three at least they were then when I worked in three distinctly different styles.
38:34
Okay, the styles and gimmicks, you wouldn't know that they were brothers,
38:37
but they but they indeed are, and they're at least then they were fantastic.
38:40
I'm sorry to feel like my sisters and I missed out because we did
38:43
a little wrestling, but you know, like sister beat down kind of wrestling.
38:46
We miss our Mark. That's callingland Cleveland beat down. I mean,
38:52
I think we really missed our Mark. Those brothers though, and then we
38:58
have Thunderfoot versus Nurse Micah. Are you familiar with Nurse Micah? Does it
39:01
make me able to say I knew Nurse Micah's grandfather. Yeah, he was
39:07
also a pro wrestler. Okay, yeah, yeah, Big Bob McCoy,
39:09
the legendary Big Bob McCoy. And you may recognize Corey Sparks. I know
39:15
he's from southern West Virginia. Also, I believe we don't all know each
39:17
other, okay, despite what you think. And then he's facing Nick Hamrick.
39:22
And then we have Cal Poke, Paul the Poke, the Cawpoke.
39:27
Yes, last year he came to the ring with one of our adoptable mini
39:30
horses. Oh so I'm not sure what we're gonna have at Bursley this year
39:34
for cal Poke. So he's going to be an action in a scramble match.
39:37
Talk about the charitable aspect of this and why you're out there raising money
39:43
for this because this is a passion of yours. I know you very well,
39:45
Go ahead, right. So I operate a horse rescue here in West
39:47
Virginia, and the need has been significant this year. There's been a lot
39:52
of horses needing our help this year. There's been a waiting list literally all
39:57
year. No sooner do I take two A And there's five needing to come
40:00
in also right behind them. So we have an equine assistance program that is
40:07
called day Solutions to avoid intake, and that helps us keep some horses from
40:12
having to come to the rescue, but that's not always feasible. So the
40:15
need has been greater than I have ever seen it. And the cost of
40:19
everything, the cost of hey, the cost of grain, the cost of
40:22
fuel to haul horses all over the state. Every cost has gone up,
40:27
and so this year especially, this event is super important. This weekend is
40:32
super important for us. All right, Well, give us all the details
40:36
for people can learn more about the event, but also about the horse rescue
40:39
that you do. All right. So our Facebook page is West Virginia Horse
40:45
Network, Inc. There's another West Virginia Horse Network that's like a sale page,
40:49
so don't go to that, go to the one that has ink at
40:51
the end. And the header on the Facebook page will be about one of
40:57
our events going on this weekend. So on Saturday, more and we have
41:00
a horsemanship clinic with Mike Hurst from Philippi who does training mustangs and so forth.
41:06
And then the Barnyard beat Down starts at seven. You can start going
41:09
inside at six o'clock. Myself and Bruce Gray will be at the door collecting
41:15
money and Yan and Hahn and celebrating any donations you can make. Admission is
41:22
free by donations, so we don't want anyone to not be able to come
41:25
to Just donate what you can at the door. And then the following day
41:29
we have a huge horse show. Last year, we had a turnout that
41:35
exceeded all of my expectations and so it's a high bar that we're hoping to
41:38
meet again. So that horse show is at ten am on Sunday. So
41:44
all of this is happening at Winfield Riding Clubs. Okay, And that's a
41:46
that's a fantastic facility over there. It really really is, Nikki, best
41:51
of luck with everything. It's always great to see you and and and enjoy
41:54

Amanda Baron is here, Nicky Walters is going to hang out with us as
46:15
we all right, I'm gonna go ahead and just go straight to ten questions.
46:17
Are you ready for ten questions? No? But okay, okay,
46:21
you're you've done the show before, but you didn't. We didn't want to
46:22
doing the ten And just so you know, Nikki, what we do is
46:24
with my guest hosts every week we ask them ten at random questions. They
46:29
don't know what the questions are. They got to answer them as rapidly as
46:31
possible and hopefully as clean as possible. Okay, all right, so that's
46:35
the whole concept here. All right, Amanda, are you ready? And
46:37
first of all, I got to give the disclaimer you've not seen the questions
46:40
And for those of you listening a home, in your cars or in your
46:43
devices, keep in mind, Amanda and I are trained professionals. Please do
46:45
not try this at home. And as always, no wageram all right?
46:49
Are you ready? I think? So? It's your day off? What
46:52
are you watching on TV? Or are you watching TV at all? The
46:54
office? We know you're a Cleveland girl and a Cleveland fan boom. Do
47:00
you despise more the Steelers, the Bengals or the Ravens Ravens? All right,
47:05
you're staying at a hotel. When you check in, do you immediately
47:08
put your things away? Or does it all remain in the suitcase? Depends
47:12
on how to mood am In. Name two things that are always on your
47:15
desk at work? Chapstick and phone? Okay, bottle water? I really
47:20
thought you saved vodka? All right? Name of your favorite uncle? Oh
47:23
my gosh, Sam, the dog we had today? Uh? Food on
47:29
your plate? Is it better that it not touch it all gets mixed together?
47:34
I really don't care. I don't care. Happy to eat all right?
47:37
Why are you sudamn perky? That's the guy who wrote that to the
47:39
newspaper all those years ago. This is an ongoing keger in my breath.
47:44
That's it inside joke. By the way. Yeah, so because Amanda got
47:46
an email or he wrote into the newspaper said, hey, dial down down
47:52
the perky, down the perky. That's what they said there, all right,
47:55
Texter or caller texter? All right, could you get up social media
48:00
for six months for ten thousand dollars? I deleted Facebook off my phone this
48:05
week and glorious week. Uh, it's October twentieth of your seventh grade year.
48:10
What are you doing that night? Oh gosh, besides beating up your
48:15
sister. We already found that out earlier. He was beating me up.
48:17
Actually, I don't know, probably something like homework. Okay, okay,
48:22
her babysitting. Congratulations. Dave's so disappointed. I know. Sorry, I
48:28
just saw his soul leave his body when he said that. It is not
48:30
the answer you were looking for. Yeah, yeah, I did homework on
48:34
senior skip day. Yeah, well I heard all right. Now, I
48:37
worked on senior skip day. I went to work at a radio station.
48:39
So that's what I did on senior yesterday. Congratulations, you have completed ten
48:44
questions. That was it. That's its good, that's it. That's it.
48:45
I listened to Hannahklin to it, and I remember thinking, I'm so
48:49
glad he didn't do that for me those What was the question that I don't
48:52
even remember? I don't make it. You see, Nikki, when you
48:55
get to a guest host the show. Now, now, but there'll be
48:58
totally different questions. Okay. Voicing my disdain for the Ravens, though,
49:00
is something I like to do. I know, I'm fully aware of that.
49:05
All right, So here, I'm gonna let you do this. This
49:07
is not really a big deal. I think it is. It is not
49:09
really a big deal. But something on the show is going to be changing
49:14
on Monday. I think if we get everything taken care of, hopeful,
49:16
hopefully everything's going to be so this Monday, there's gonna be a name change
49:23
to the show. Change this show, And I think you're you're kind of
49:25
downplaying it. But I'm going to be your buddy and your cheerleader, and
49:28
I'm glad Nick he's here to be able to do the same. But on
49:30
Monday, the show is now going to be called drum roll please, the
49:34
Dave Allen Show. Congratulations rics. It's a great name. And what's really
49:39
cool about it is the pay raise that comes from aong the rue telling me
49:44
about it, signed a Coop deal. Coop out did himself on this pa
49:47
that he doesn't know what I'm talking about. This is very cool, very
49:52
exciting. At your show, is I mean something that we talk about in
49:53
our morning meetings in the newsroom. You know, people talk about your show,
49:59
people look forward to just listening to you. You bring a wide variety
50:02
of guests, and I have really appreciated the way you ask some tough questions,
50:07
but you do it in a way that's very respectful. And you can
50:10
read the meanest text like Greg Thomas that somebody writes in about him. Are
50:15
you doing It's like, Oh, it's just hey, hey Greg, listen
50:17
to what someone just said and whoever's here, and you just do it with
50:22
such grace. Wow, that's problem. Materirs like, it's not. It
50:25
doesn't make you feel awkward when you're listening in your car. It's going to
50:28
be awkward on Monday when I say five eighty Live ten thousand times because it's
50:30
going to take a little getting used to. Well. I appreciate that.
50:32
But yeah, starting Monday it'll be known as Today Valan Show, So I'm
50:37
sure that's very cool. I appreciate it. We bring the trading Post back,
50:39
and that's just to be clear that so we're no longer responsible for what
50:43
he has to say. We had to get our name out of the things.
50:45
We just had to give him all the responsibility for it. So hey
50:49
man, it's yours, take off with it. Yeah, A big disclaimer
50:52
on that show put a disclaimer like it's some kind of a crappy podcast.
50:55
But anyway, that's decided to point. So so I do it. Appreciate
51:00
it. I appreciate you you guys for being here and the nice words and
51:04
everything. So I think we you know, we all used to hang out
51:06
and logan together, John stories and things like that. I mean, I
51:08
did this story when Dave retired, I don't know, I didn't retire.
51:14
I just left the radio station. I'd worked there for twenty years in Logan,
51:16
that's what it was. Yeah, yeah, you know, yeah,
51:20
and you don't feel bad. Well I did retire from wrestling, Okay,
51:23
yeah, I did retire. I got penned by JJ Dillon. That's how
51:27
I retired. If you remember actually wrestled, well, it's a long story.
51:30
They rolled me in the ring, they knocked me out, and Jay
51:32
the legendary manager JJ Dillon penned me in the middle of the ring and those
51:35
in in my wrestling career, I ever had a show with your name on
51:37
it, though, it's just like ten questions for me now. Well,
51:40
in Logan it was Dave in the morning. That's what for twenty years.
51:43
So all right, coming up on Monday, New new show name, but
51:46
no Mayor Monday this Monday because all the mayors are at a conference at Canaane
51:51
Valley this Monday. I just found that out as I was trying to schedule

51:58
