  Speaker 2: about them on the radio. So Radio from Hell at
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: x ninety six dot com, muscle in the subject line.

  Speaker 2: When you get these little like hangnail sort of things
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: at the edges of your fingers and little and it's
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: just a little tiny and you forget about us there
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: until you you bump it on something, catch on your
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: catch it on something, and then it hurts, and it's
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: just that really musk like I have a little tiny
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: sort of cut right here on the edge of my
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: thumb yep, and it just there's a little piece of
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: dry skin on that and it catches on stuff and
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: it hurts, So that must go. Let's see this one says,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: thanks for letting me listen. Number one insurance having to
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: pre authorize everything beforehand to get detailed receipts after. If
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: I'm submitting a claim for FSA forms for a dental office,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: a hospital, or optomogist, for example, that should be enough.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't have to go back months later and ask
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: for receipts to submit when they originally submit. Shouldn't all
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: of the information be there on that occasion? Yeah? Number two,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: almost every car on the road has an auto feature
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: for headlights. They will automatically turn on when you need them,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: turn off when you don't. They also turn on automatically
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: when you have your wiper blades when it's raining. You
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: can set that feature and forget it. You don't have
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to check your headlights when turning the car on or off.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: And what must go? Is everyone not using this? And
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: number three most people have fast food apps on their phones.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Why do people? Why do people drive to places, sit
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: in the drive through line, wait until they get to
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: the box to order and then think what do I want? So,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: in other words, you should pre plan these these things
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: if you're going to you know, drive through line at
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: like McDonald's, don't sit there and make up your mind
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: when you get up to the up to the box.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I see, So that's that's what they're talking about. Let's
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: see this one says, hello lords and lady Gina. You
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: are always a lord in my eyes. But you know
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: protocol perimenopause makes me not give an as anyway you
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: can use my name. It's to cheese cracker stella. And again,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: don't dare Bill, No, don't care, Hi Bill, I don't
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: know why. Don't care? High Bill. With all the construction
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: and car accidents, please use your blinker when trying to
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: merge into traffic. I totally get that you didn't realize
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: that all of a sudden you have to change lanes.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I'll break and let you in with a turn signal.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Don't blaze in front of me like Wiley coyote. It
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: is not okay. And also, as a personal chef, respect
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the cheese drawer in your refrigerator. Do not put blueberries
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: and green onions and leftover Chinese food in the cheese drawer,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: respect the cheese. Yes, and finally this, good morning, lords
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and happy birthday, Gena. Here's my list of things that
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: must go when you call customer service and the autum
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: unt mated line says, we are experiencing a higher than
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: usual call volume, but you get that same response every
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: single time you call them. And then finally this, when
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: one of the rings in a three ring binder gets bent, oh,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: you can just never bend it back to the right position,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: and one whole is always falling out. Thanks Austin Fina.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: A couple from me. Graduation things that must go. Yes,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: if it's your job to announce the names at a graduation,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: And for a while there they were trying to say
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: don't cheer till the end. That never worked. So if
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: people are cheering, wait till that has stopped before you
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: read the next name, because they just keep going and
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: you can't hear who the next kid's name is. So
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: just pause and long enough for the clapping to stop
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: so we can hear the next name.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: You know why this bothers you so much? Because you're
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: a professional announcer. You do this stuff. Yeah, I have
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: the same feeling. I go to funerals, and usually the
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: speeches of funerals. Yeah, I spend my time rather than
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: grieving the person to criticizing how bad the speakers are.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Also, girls, I love that you're getting dressed up for
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: graduation and wearing heels if heels aren't something that you
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: usually wear, breaking them out for graduation when you got
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: to walk across the stage and I felt so sorry
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: for these girls who were wobbling across the stage on
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: their just wear flats.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's okay.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: And have a plan with your graduate for where you
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: are going to meet after graduation. Right, Well, we're going
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to be by that tree over to the right there.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Everybody will be there because trying to meet up with
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: your graduate after, you know, hundreds of people come streaming
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: out of the place where the graduation is. It's just
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: have a plan ahead of time. Let's see this is
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know who this is from finding one or
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: more dented cans of dog food hidden inside a package
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: twelve pack Good morning lords. My thing that must go
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: is people who park in a spot reserve for crossing guards.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: After my morning shift, I'm able to put my cones
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: on a spot I parked out reserve. It for the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: afternoon shift. However, I have had it happen three times
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: where I've come back for the afternoon shift only to
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: find somebody has ignored the cones and parked my reserve spot. Anyway, sure,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I came back to find a beaten up white Honda
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Ridgeline in my spot, and I was late setting everything up.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Please don't be like the Honda Ridgeline driver. If you
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: see cones in a school parking lot, it's reserved, don't
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: park there. Thanks for letting me listen, let's see. And
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: then finally this missing the green traffic light because the
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: driver in front of me is looking down at their phone.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: And people monopolizing machines at the gym while using their
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: phones taking selfies. We love you listen every morning you
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: got us through the pandemic. The greens of holiday.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Utah selfies at the gym should go. Yeah anyway, all right,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: this one from Tony Things that must go. The phone
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: line's being disconnected for the innovative Hello yeah what segment?
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Linda and Pete of Finland not taking the top spot
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: at Eurovision this past weekend. Oh kidding, I wasn't ready
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: for a Bulgarian bop with backup dancers from Studio fifty
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: four going through the purge. I really wanted the world
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: class violinist to win. She just happened to post naked
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: and Playboy back in the nineties. Well, and a thing
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: that must go thinking the thinking that my car interior
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: smells bad due to pollen from Bradford pear trees. But
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: if it was a box of button mushrooms that I
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: left in the backseat rodding away, apparently, Oh that's too bad,
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Suzanne writes, Channel two needs to go for canceling Colbert. Well,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: it's not Channel two, it's CBS. I planned a boycott,
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: She says, Channel too. But it's CBS. I planned a
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: boycott CBS. After he's gone, let's all make them go?
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Do I need to boycott them all? All right? This
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: one from Michael and Idaho Falls What must go is
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: my neighbor's wasteful watering habits. He's a typical Idaho Utah
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: boomer guy who you can probably picture right now uttering
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: his driveway, gutters and sidewalks after he mows his lawn.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: He uses so much water you'd think the poor concrete
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: was dying of thirst. On top of that, it's constantly
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: windy here. If he's too lazy to sweep, he could
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: just wait five minutes for the wind to carry that
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: grass away. Thanks for letting me listen, Michael, and Idaho Falls.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: He does that. He does that watering. He usually does
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: it shirtless as well, probably.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: And finally, the thing that must go is for me,
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: my never ending sense of impending doom.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: He must go. Begs that must go on the radio show.
