  Speaker 1: Uncle Floyd Show once somewhere in the eighties, and I
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: remember doing a some benefit somewhere with him where I
• 2:20

  Speaker 5: Good morning, Mark. Sorry to hear about Uncle fyd Uh
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: and kudos to Vincent.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Uh. I want to talk.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: About our new governor. What they did, those two clowns
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: and uh Trenton. They doubled our energy costs. And now
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: she's going to put a cap on it to be
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: the hero.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's going to be a mess. But you guys
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: are used to it in New Jersey. You keep collecting
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: these crazy idiots.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: And uh, when is uh Nick Shirley going to come
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: to New Jersey. We're sick of the fraud here.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the other problem, you know. New Jersey is
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: just waste and fraud and bloat. That's why your taxes
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: are so high. If you got Nick Shirley and Elon
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Musking to bring there to clean it up, doge the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: whole thing, your taxes would be about one third of
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: what they are now. And if you didn't know who
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: this woman was, if I just played this clip here,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: if I didn't tell you who this was, would you
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: think this is a governor of a state.
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: I would encourage everyone to, you know what, have a
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: great family day at home this weekend. Play some born games.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: Don't go out in this.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You see, if you're the mayor or the governor,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to put on that jacket, you know, that snowjacket,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: that official jacket, and sound very serious and lay out everything.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: They'll be over two thousand salt spreaders. We'll be doing this,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: We'll be doing that. You're supposed to sound very official, authoritative,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: like you've got everything planned. You're not supposed to just
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: be goofy.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: And I would encourage everyone to, you know what, have
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: a great family day at home this weekend. Play some
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: born games.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Don't go out we play b games anymore. You do.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I can't imagine when you got eight million TV channels,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: when you got eight thousand streaming services, when you got
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: your phone, your laptop. Who's going to play a board game?
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: But I guess people do. Hey, Sunday, you got two
• 5:15

  Speaker 1: in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Oh, good morning, Mark, thanks to taking my call. Listen,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry about Uncle Floyd's passing.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Boy, this Uncle Floyd turns out to be the biggest
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: story of the day.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: It is, and I got to my memories of him
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: or when I back in the seventies, I was in
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the Army and Fort Dix, and before we went out
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: on maneuvers or whatever, we'd sit in the rec room
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: and everybody, all these soldiers and all their uniforms, we'd
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: all be watching Uncle Floyd.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Well, I can't think of anything more inspiring. Are you
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: supposed to be watching like Paton the movie or something?
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: But you're watching Uncle Floyd. That's a boy. But a
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: lot of people remember this guy. Let's go Bill in Lafayette,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: New Jersey. Bill, how you doing okay?
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Mark? I graduated high school with Looney Skip Rooney, who
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: was a sidekick on the Uncle Floyd's show, and he
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: would invite me on the show just to watch once
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: in a while. So I used to bawl at Eagle
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Rock and I walked over to the recording studio and
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: I talked to Skiff and a couple other people, and
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: they had this guest waiting in the hallway. So I
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: walked down and I thought it was Tiny Tim, but
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: I was mistaken. But they introduced him on the show
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: later on and it was Howard Stern. I'm going, oh, yeah,
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: who the hell is this guy?
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I forgot about that Howard Stern was on the Uncle
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Floyd Show. Yeah, absolutely, back in the eighties. So Uncle Floyd,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: it was Looney Skip Rooney, and then who else was
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: on the show. I'm trying to remember.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Mister silly Ye was one of my favorites, the fat
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: guy that always eat ate toast at the and a
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: couple other guys. It's hard to remember, but.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: It was a great show.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: It was it was silly, it was goofy, it was funny,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: it was entertaining, and Loney Skip Rooney was a goof
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: I actually tied with him as the funniest guy in
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: the high school, but he beat me out by a
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: couple of points.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't sound like the bar was too high
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: in this high school for that time. All right, well,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Great call. Yeah, so now a lot
• 7:29
