Transcript
- 0:06Speaker 1: It's often said that the people of Utah speak a
- 0:09Speaker 1: language all their own. It's a language that's often confusing
- 0:13Speaker 1: and even incomprehensible to newcomers here in the Beehive State.
- 0:17Speaker 1: So Radio from Hell presents a handy guide to help
- 0:20Speaker 1: everyone understand how the natives speak. It's the Utah word
- 0:24Speaker 1: of the day, and today's word.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Is well today, there are two words to consider. They
- 0:30Speaker 2: are kraw c r A l L and scheme s
- 0:34Speaker 2: k e e n. And to use these words in dialogue,
- 0:37Speaker 2: we go to Mona, Utah, where the Mayor Don Kridle
- 0:39Speaker 2: is dealing with his dim witted but very excitable Sun Denver.
- 0:43Speaker 2: Denver has come to his dad's office with a very
- 0:45Speaker 2: big plan. Again, the words are kraw and scheme Nnie Bendy.
- 0:51Speaker 3: Did you hear the big nth the big neth about
- 0:53Speaker 3: thun Dance?
- 0:54Speaker 4: You mean the sun Dance flam Festival. Yeah, I heard. No.
- 0:59Speaker 3: No, this thing about a flam festival. It's about the
- 1:01Speaker 3: Sundance Film Festival. I didn't know they had a flim festival. No, Son,
- 1:06Speaker 3: there isn't a flam festival. I just sometimes call the
- 1:10Speaker 3: Sundance Film Festival the Sun Dance flam Festival. You know
- 1:14Speaker 3: it's kind of a joke. Well, gee, daddy, I thought
- 1:17Speaker 3: jokes were supposed to be funny.
- 1:18Speaker 4: Never mind, what's the big news?
- 1:21Speaker 3: Well, daddy, the Sundance Festival is leaving Utah. There ain't
- 1:25Speaker 3: gonna be no more films, no more Hollywood stars, no
- 1:28Speaker 3: more people who are Hollywood stars dancing on tables and
- 1:32Speaker 3: getting in fights in Pork City bars and restaurants.
- 1:34Speaker 4: Why did the Pork City mayor finally put her foot
- 1:37Speaker 4: down and say that the city police force is not
- 1:40Speaker 4: gonna tolerate that behavior.
- 1:41Speaker 3: No, the Sundance folks got a better offer from Colorado,
- 1:45Speaker 3: so they're just pulling up stakes and leaving Utah for good.
- 1:48Speaker 3: But daddy, there's a silver lining to this dark cloud now.
- 1:51Speaker 3: So well, we'll have to start today if we have
- 1:54Speaker 3: any chance of organizing the Mona City International Film Festival.
- 2:00Speaker 3: I already started working on my first movie. It's an
- 2:02Speaker 3: original story, an original story about a bunch of kids
- 2:06Speaker 3: who go out to the Mona Reservoir and have some
- 2:08Speaker 3: fun at a bonfire party, but then they get stocked
- 2:11Speaker 3: and killed by the current creek Killer. We're the big
- 2:13Speaker 3: knife and wear the hockey mask.
- 2:15Speaker 4: So that that sounds kind of familiar. By aside from that,
- 2:19Speaker 4: what about money? You need sponsor money, big time to
- 2:23Speaker 4: get something like this off the ground.
- 2:24Speaker 3: That's why I need your influence as mayor, Daddy, to
- 2:28Speaker 3: see if you can crow some sponsors for the festival.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Maybe you can round up, you know, crow the folks
- 2:33Speaker 3: at the lavender farms or the bullet factory for money.
- 2:37Speaker 3: Tell them, I'll give him a cameo in my movie.
- 2:39Speaker 3: You tell them that they'll meet Hollywood stars who will
- 2:42Speaker 3: come to Mona for the festival.
- 2:43Speaker 4: Well, I guess I could talk to him.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Oh something else, Daddy. We're gonna have to build a
- 2:47Speaker 3: big hill somewhere in town, and the big as a mountain. Well,
- 2:50Speaker 3: what on earth for the Hollywood types who come to
- 2:53Speaker 3: Park City like to go skiing. We need someplace for
- 2:56Speaker 3: him to do some.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Skiing again some other time. As we examine how the
- 3:03Speaker 1: Utah natives speak with the Utah Word of the day,
