  Speaker 6: Tonight, we'll be at the Pride kickoff party from five
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: to about eight pm, but other than that, our weekend
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: is going to be pretty tame.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: Well, that's all right, that's right, because we got I mean,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: there's so many things going on to the next couple
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: of weeks, so you know you had a lot of
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: work to do there, because I know your numbers are
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: still pretty high. We'll get that a little bit later on,
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: but as always, our part of the week's picture posted
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: on Dave Island Radio, on Facebook and at Dave A
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: seventy on X tell us about and are you pronouncing
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: it Weasley?
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: Weasley like Ron Weasley from Harry Potter.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: I should have known, Ryan, I should have known.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: I should have known, all right, I because when you
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: sent me the text last night, I said, well, I
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: wonder if it's Wesley, and then I should have all automatically.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Presumed with you that that's where we were going to go.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Although I don't know who Weasley is because I've never
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: seen the first Harry Potter film or read the book.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: But I'm not very culture, I'm not very cold.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: I got Weasley's picture posted again over on my social
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: media tell us about Weasley.
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: So, Weasley is a very unique dog. He is one
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: of our dogs that's been with us for quite some time.
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: He is starting to get really stressed in his kennel.
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: He paces, he barks, he kind of flips himself from
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: side to side of the kennel as far as like
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: running really quickly and getting a lot of air up
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: on the side of the kennel like a motorcycle in
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: a cage. Really, so we're trying to get Weasley out.
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: He is probably would do best as the only dog
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: in the home. He has been okay with some dogs
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: he's met at the shelter, so it's really hard to
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: like pin down who he would go well with or
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: who he could live with. But if you have a
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: dog at home and you want to try out Weasley,
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: you can bring your pet to the shelter. We can
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: do a meet and greet, make sure everything goes okay.
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: But he's two years old, he's neutered, the works, he's
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: got all his vaccines, microchips, all that good stuff. And
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: he is, like I said, he's just very unique, very funny.
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: A lot of our staff love him. He has lots
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: of nicknames at the shelters, like the weise, weasel, all
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: that good stuff.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: And you say he's around thirty six pounds, I think
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: is what you told me.
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, around thirty six pounds. He is taller, so thirty
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: six pounds looks pretty good on him, but he's a
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: taller dog. Completely sponsored ad option. See. The only thing
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: that's a definite no for Weasley is very young children.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: We're thinking like under ten years old. And definitely no cat.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Definitely no, he's not a cat fan like we are, right,
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: absolutely not. All right, Well, I mean you got to
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: know that going in.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: It's better and better to find that out ahead of
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: time as opposed to trying to find it out later.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: So he does have a lot of energy. And again
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: you've told us before about these these dogs that when
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: they're in their kennel or in the in the shelter,
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I should say that you know they they sometimes it
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: just totally stresses them out. And then you get him
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: out of that, whether somebody fosters them or they just
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: take them out for the day for a walk or whatever.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: It's an amazing it's amazing what a difference there is
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: when you actually can get them out of there.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, anytime outside, I mean even as a small amount
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: of times like fifteen minutes, can make such a huge
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: difference for the dogs that are to the point of
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: like pacing and hurting themselves in their kennels. So definitely
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: consider fostering or just getting them out for a little
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: bit because again it makes a huge difference for them.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Well, speaking of fostering, Angie June is National Foster a
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Pitt Month and so it would be a great opportunity
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: for people to try to try this out. If somebody
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: is considering fostering, what's the conversation like, they just call
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: you up or they stop mind and they say, look,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I'm considering fostering. What advice do you give them?
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: So our behavior is Jolie is much more well rounded
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: with as far as behavior advice, as far as bringing
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: an animal into your home. We try to set you
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: up from for success from the start. We give you
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: pretty much any supply that you will need, and then
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: as far as fostering, anytime amount, any amount of time
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: out of the shelter is great. So we're not going
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: to say, hey, we need you to at least keep
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: them for the weekend or whatever. We're gonna be happy
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: with whatever you can do and whatever you feel comfortable doing,
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: because we want you to come back and foster more.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: So we're not going to push you past your limits
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: to foster one particular animal.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: And you know, there are so many people that do
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: that on a regular basis, you know, whether it's dogs
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: or cats or whatever.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: They that this is kind of their thing.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: This is their this is their golfer, you know, whatever
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: other activities you may have, that they just live to
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: do this stuff.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: Angie. I mean, they love, they love to foster.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: And then you'll see them post pictures on social media
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: trying to help you guys get these pets adopted by saying, hey,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: we've been fostering this cat or this dog or whatever.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: He's great, she's fantastic, whatever. So God bless those people.
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: To do that.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: And again, June is National Foster a Pet Mont so
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: it'd be a great time for people to to try
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: to look into that.
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: So how are the numbers looking.
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: They're still as always, I feel like a broken record.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: We're still no matter how many animals we send out,
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: we cannot get below five hundred animals in our care.
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: Even this morning we had twenty leaves to an adoption
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: event in New Jersey, and we are still pushing about
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: five hundred and like five hundred and three animals.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: So wow, and that's that's definitely wait, wait, way too many.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: After the show last week, after your segment last week, Anie,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: somebody had texted and I don't know whether we did
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: this actually on air or not, but I know I
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: got with you afterwards. They wanted to know about floor
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: plans or anything like that for the new shelter. I
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: know we're not quite there yet, but can in case
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: they missed it last week, can you give us a
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: timeline of, you know, ideally fingers crossed, when you'd like
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: to start construction, when you'd actually like to be in
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: the new shelter.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: Yes, so we are. The floor plans are in work.
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: We're getting sent drafts at this point of what we
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: think would work for thee like the location we've picked,
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: and also kind of sticking to what is like feasible
• 9:06
  Speaker 6: for KHA. So we're looking at a timeline of about
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: like three to four years at this point, just because
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: it takes a lot more than I thought it did
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: personally to get a animal shelter constructed versus like a
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: regular building constructed. A lot goes into like drain work
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: and all the building things construction things that I'm not
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: familiar with.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean one, I can certainly imagine that. The
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: Dave Allen showing five eighty Live is brought to you
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: in part by Morgan to Morgan, America's largest injury law firm.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: We have a text question for you, Miss givin Water.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: It says, any idea why it seems that feline and
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: if I butcher this, you can you can and butcher
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: me later. Feline piometra ting to pronounce that right. Cases
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: seem to have jumped over the past year.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: We're talking piametra. It's an infection in a cat or
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: dogs uterist. I haven't seen personally like a lot of
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: piametra cases happening at the shelter, specifically if they're spiking
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: in the area and nationwide. The easy solution of that,
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: please get your pet saved. That is the number one
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: way to prevent that. And I think what's happening now
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: is there's a national vet shortage, so stay and neuter
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: is very hard to access right now. And I think
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: that may be an explanation as to why those cases
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: are jumping specifically.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: All right, hey Angie, I appreciate you being here and
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: we'll talk again next week.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: Thanks a lot. Sounds great, Angie Gellawater from the GNAAL Charleston.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: You made association with this week's adop me. Please better
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: the week again. Picture posted over on Dave Island Radio
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: on Facebook and at Davise seventy on X It's Weasley,
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: to year old male around thirty six pounds, needs to
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: probably be the only pet. Seems to get along well
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: with other playful female dogs, but definitely no cats. And
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: they recommend because of the energy level and things of
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: that nature, that probably would be better in a home.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Kids are fine, but maybe older kids maybe, say, as
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Angie said, maybe ten and up probably would be better
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: for Weasley. And he's already he's already ready to go,
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: he's already vaccinated, he's already neutered. He's going to be
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: a fantastic dog for your family. And I've got his
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: picture again if you want to see Weasley. The dog
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: we're talking about, which I learned today as a Harry
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: Potter thing. I don't know absolutely nothing about Harry Potter.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: I've left a I guess led very very very sheltered life.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: No pun intended when we're talking about the Humans Association,
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: but anyway, go over to Dave Island Radio and Facebook.

  Speaker 4: Brian, good morning, Good morning, thanks for having me in.
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: Welcome to our Have you been on the air with
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: me before?
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: I think I think when we started City Center Live.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Actually I think we came in at that time, me
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: and Matt Sutton came in and kind of talked about
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: what we were hoping for this program, all right those
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: three years ago?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, right, so now that it that it's
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: up and running. First of all, what is what is
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: Arts Amplified?
• 15:28
  Speaker 9: But art?
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: I'm the director of Arts Amplified.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: It was an initiative that was dreamed up the creator
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: Canaw Valley Foundation and some other important players four years
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: ago started wishing that we had some type of entity
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: in Charleston that was always working to connect artists and
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: business and community together to really like grow and and
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: like you said a sec Ago, we have a lot
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: of great art in Charleston and we really do support
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: the artists in Charleston, and Art Amplified is really just
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: there to help take all of that to the next level,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: help make those connections and really amplify all the great
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: arts that's already going on in Charleston and hopefully create
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: some new fund things in the long line.
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: What are some of the things that you guys have
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: done in the last few years.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: We have a minigrant program which has been very successful.
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: Those are like five thousand dollars Ish minigrants that anyone
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: can apply for artists, businesses, organizations. So through that we've
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: done a lot. Like we've helped recently Folklore Music on
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: Summer Street. They wanted to build a performance space in
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: their store. They applied for a mini grant, took them
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: all of five minutes. We were happy to approve that
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: and now they have that in that space. That's just
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: something recently. Programming wise, we have City Center Live, which
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: we mentioned a second ago, is actually kicking off next
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: week on Thursday, and that's our series of summer events
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: that we do in the park. So that's one of
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: the other programming things we do. We do a lot
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: of brokering between businesses and artists. Let's say a couple
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: of years ago, Progrants got depot wanted to find an
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: artist to paint a mural in their entry area. So
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: we helped them through that process of collecting the artists,
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: helping them go through the interview process selecting who they wanted.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: And that's really cool, I will say, because that's where
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: I live. I mean, I don't live at Kroger, but
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: well you could. But but I will say, that's the
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: local Uh, that's the local grocery store. So you've seen
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: that in our neighborhood once a week at least.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: Amazing.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: I mean absolutely, I had no idea you guys did that. Yeah,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: it's amazing.
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: Every time I see it, I think it really does
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: look like a piece of work that wouldn't be in
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: a Kroger.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: I mean it's a beautiful piece of work. Yeah, it
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: really is good.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: We're talking to Brian Cooper from Mart's Amplified, So city
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Center Live tell us about that.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: So city Center Live.
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: We started it three years ago. The idea, you know,
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: the beautiful Slack Plaza was recreated as City Center at
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: the time, the new park downtown, and we really wanted
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: to just put programming to make that a big part
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: of the new park, having things in the park for
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: people to do.
• 17:45
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: So we came up with the idea of having a
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: regular series of events, all free, three times a week
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: throughout the summer, and it's a little bit of everything.
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: Like there's like I said, next Thursday starts with open
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: Sky Open Mic, which is exactly as it sounds. It's
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: just open mic night out in the park. Anybody come down.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: We have line dancing night. People come out and do
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: line dancing. We have a murder Mystery night. Gosh, we
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: have theater events in the park. These are all free
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: events that take place, Like we start on June twelfth,
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: so we'll do like four dates through June. That's just
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: kind of like a teaser of what the season is
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: going to be like. And then we take off July
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: because there's so much going on in July in our
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: town that we don't need any more programming now, you know,
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: we really don't. But then in August it really kicks off.
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: And from August through October seventeenth, there'll be at least
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: three events in the park every week that are always
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: free for anyone, and they're all artspaced, so you can
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: always come out, have some fun downtown and see some art.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: How do you choose, Brian, what it is that you do?
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I mean that's kind of eclectic. You talked about the
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: music and murder mysteries and line dancing. How do you
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: choose what goes into you? Just listen to the people.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So we started with the large committee actually of
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: diverse people to say, you know, what would be some
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: things to try. And really what we've done is kind
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: of adapt season to season. We've taken data and talk
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: to people and see what's working, what's not working. We've
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: kept everything. Actually, we've I don't know if we've dropped anything.
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: We've kind of just grown off of everything that we've had.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: Some new things we have added this year. We have
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: a high school marching band showcase, so some of the
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: high school marching bands will come out and perform one evening.
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: We're adding Happy Hours on Fridays and starting in September
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: this year, so it'll be an earlier in the day event.
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: People can come out, play some yard games. Here's some
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: live music. We're adding a Pickle Palooza fest this year,
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: which we'll have like ten to twelve vendors sampling Pickles
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: in the Park.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Pickles in the Park, Pickles in the Park. I mean
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: that's a new one. Yea, I haven't heard that one.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it'll be fun. You can come out sample pickles.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: Everyone will vote on who their favorite pickle is. We'll
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: have some pickle games and contests. It'll all be a
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: pickle themed day, of course, with live music too. We'll
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: have some Irish brogue music. We'll have some bluegrass music
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: that day. It should be an event that will be.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Kind of you're really missing out here, Brian, if you don't.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: I know, you can't have pickleball tournament down there but
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: pickle but but I mean just to have somebody up
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: down there. Get with Johnny rutherth buddy, you know that's
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: so big into pickleball. He's a regular on the show.

• 20:13
  Speaker 3: contest I think in Nitro last week, So maybe get
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: them down there at least talk about We're talking to
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: Brian Cooper again from Arts Amplified. The Dave Allen Show
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: in five eighty Live is brought to you in part
• 20:24

  Speaker 3: offers specialized indoor air quality services for residential, commercial, and
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: industrial type settings Visa Pinnacle Corp.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Dot net.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Because what you don't know can hurt you. I want
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: to talk about getting young people involved in this, in
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: the arts in general, and I'm a big believer that
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: anything we can get young people involved in, whether it's sports,
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: whether it's theater, whether it's banned you know, music, dance,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: you know, anything to get them interested in something other
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: than just a device, I think has got to be
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: a good thing.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: Is your program.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: And you, folks, do you do you do anything to
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: work with the youth to kind of reach out together absolute.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: And honestly, I mean selfishly, you know, I actually didn't
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: come from an art profession background. I worked in IT
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: and oil and gas companies and law firms, and my
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: background was actually mostly in information technology. But when we
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: moved to Charleston about thirteen years ago, now we had
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: the little kids at the time, it was really the
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: art scene that kind of hooked us into Charleston, being
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: able to go to art walk, going our kids got
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: super involved in local theater. So it was through that
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: that kind of led me into the passion of wanting
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: to see arts thrive in Charleston, and.
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we do.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: You know, I would say open mic night at City
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: Center Live is probably one of our biggest youth outreach
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: events because there's really not an open mic night except
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: for the one that Folklore Music does when City certain
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: Live is not going on, that all ages can come
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: out and perform it. So imagine a fifteen year old
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: kid who's never you know, they have some skills, but
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: they don't have anywhere to really test that out and
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: show it to be able to come down to the
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: City Center Live or perform in the park where you
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: might have a patio full of people over at five
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: Street that's now listening to this kid. And I've seen
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: people get up and walk from five Street to come see.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Like, who is this singer there? Yeah?
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: Like so to give them that kind of space and
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: exposure is It's been one of my favorite parts of
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: Citizens Live Reshort.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: You see if that were me and I were up
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: on stage and the people at five Street would say,
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: is someone being murdered over.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: There the inside table? Now, well what exactly is that?
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: What exactly is that?
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: But but again, you know, it's an opportunity for people
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: to come out and you know, you've been here for
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: a while. We weren't you from originally.
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: We were in Beckley before.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay, But you know as well as I do
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: that Charleston is really getting this of this image as
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: being a just a thriving I mean, I talk about
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: the culinary community because I'm a filia. I mean the
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: culinary community, but also the arts community as well the music.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot of stuff going on.
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: We've had Mountain Stage here forever. At this point, fest
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: of All has been a you know, an amazing part. Again,
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: that's another thing that my family loved, Like there's all
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: these art things we have, the regotta we have live
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: on the levee, Like there's so many things now we
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: have City Center Live Art Amplified doing. You know, we
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: just put out these art collecting vending machines around town.
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: I don't know if you've seen those or not. Yeah,
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: there's something about the community engaging in art like that
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: that feels really special to Charleston. I was downtown during
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: the bike race. We did a whole week of well
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: five days of music programming during the bike race, so
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: you could watch rices and listen to music in the park,
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: and I saw a family of little kids collect all
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: the quarters they could. They ran over to the vending machine,
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: got a bunch of the vending the art vending cards out,
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: and then they all set around as a family in
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: the park like opening them up. I thought this, you know,
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: that looks like a fun thing about Charleston to me.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Is now for those that don't I know what you're
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: talking about. But for those that don't know about these
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: cards you're talking about to explain that.
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: So think of an old school put your four quarters in,
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: pushing the button, and outcomes of tattoo or a sticker
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: or something like that, except for in this case, you
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: put your four quarters in, you push it in, and
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: what comes out as a print from a local artist.
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: We have four different artists right now, so you can
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: collect all sixteen. There's four different prints from four different artists.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: We have one vending machine at our office at the
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: Greater Knaw Valley Foundation right across from five Street Brewery,
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: and then we have another vending machine in Capital Market,
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: so you could visit those. There's ian body has some
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: prints in them. Each claus has prints, Blake Wheeler and
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: Lex Hunter. So there's four artists right now and you
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: can collect little miniature baseball card size prints of local art.
• 24:35

  Speaker 3: truck Friday thing has been going on. It's been several years, right.

  Speaker 9: At least ten years. I was trying to figure this

  Speaker 9: out the other day. This might be our tenth year
• 31:59
  Speaker 9: in fact. Okay, yeah, so a long time and people
• 32:03
  Speaker 9: love it and we're just excited. Last year we moved
• 32:06
  Speaker 9: it to Hurricane City Park and that was a great success.
• 32:08
  Speaker 9: So if you've been in the past, just to make note,
• 32:11
  Speaker 9: we are at City Park, not Main Street.
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's I'm I really appreciate you pointing that
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: out because for years, as you said, it was on
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: the Main Street and Hurricane near the gazebo. Uh and
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: you've kind of moved it away from there. You know,
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: we've got we've had an active restaurant seen down in
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: the city Hurricane and you can understand sometimes you know,
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: they're like, I'm not saying that's what happened, but sometimes
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: you're like, well, you're breaking food trucks in front of
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: my restaurant. If I were a restaurant owner, I would
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: completely understand that. Uh So, in big shout out to
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: the folks at Bell Nap and Sergio's and others down there.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: So you're now in a hurricane, you're now in Hurricane
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: City Park. For those who may be listening to us
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: that may not know where Hurricane City Park is, explain.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: It to us.
• 32:50
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's right there by the reservoir in Hurricane, right
• 32:52

  Speaker 9: thing about City Park. There's plenty of parking and plenty
• 33:04
  Speaker 9: of room to.
• 33:05
  Speaker 10: Spread out so well.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: And I don't know what the weather is going to
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: become lunchtime, because we do have some scattered showers and
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: thunderstorms expected, but what I'm hearing, I think it's going
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: to be primarily later.
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: So would be a great time, lungs.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: It's not too terribly hot for you to get out
• 33:20

• 45:12
  Speaker 3: And it's it always seems to me, Every, year dave
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: that there is that one team in THE baseball churta
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: BUT that i don't want to say shouldn't. Be there
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: they played well enough they should. Be there but, on paper, you,
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: think well this team probably you wouldn't suspect.
• 45:26
  Speaker 20: To be there if you only look at it and
• 45:28
  Speaker 20: you assume you're Talking About east harty in, this case
• 45:30
  Speaker 20: if you only look at.
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: The Record.
• 45:33
  Speaker 20: But, east hardy where they, are located. Plays up so
• 45:37
  Speaker 20: they Go, play martinsburg they Go, play hedgesville they go
• 45:40
  Speaker 20: play these four, eight teams THESE three, a teams because
• 45:42
  Speaker 20: there's just not a Lot OF class a teams in
• 45:44
  Speaker 20: that part of. The state so that's, number one and,
• 45:46
  Speaker 20: NUMBER two i go back to. The injuries they, lost
• 45:49
  Speaker 20: three four five main starters early in. The season so
• 45:54
  Speaker 20: you go through that early part of, the year you
• 45:55
  Speaker 20: don't have your, main hitters you're missing a pitcher, or
• 45:58
  Speaker 20: two it's. No wonder but late in the year these
• 46:01
  Speaker 20: guys have. Come back this is now the team that
• 46:03
  Speaker 20: the coach thought he would have heading into, the tournament
• 46:06
  Speaker 20: and they got a chance to pull OFF what i
• 46:09
  Speaker 20: think is a pretty memorable year to overcome all of,
• 46:11
