3:17
Maine Association with this week's adot me please pet of the week. Hannah,
3:22
good morning, How are you, Hannah? Are you there here?
3:29
Okay? Hannah? Andy, Andy, Hannah, Hi, Hannah, nice
3:32
to meet you all. Are We can barely hear Hannah. I don't know,
3:38
Hannah. Maybe you need to uh step up a little bit to the
3:42
to the phone there because we can barely hear you. Shout at us,
3:45
shout at us. Yeah there you go, there you go? All right
3:52
now. As always, the picture of of our pet is posted on my
3:58
Facebook, Dave Allen Radio and also at Dave A seventy on AX the Artists
4:01
formerly known as Twitter. This week, the story is a story of Blossom.
4:06
Tell us about Blossom. Yeah, so she is five months old and
4:15
she's a very very energetic little girl. She has been adulted before, but
4:20
she was brought back no fault of her own. She just wasn't allowed to
4:24
be in the apartment complex she was in. And she's very, very very
4:29
sweet. She would be a very very good family dog. I think maybe
4:32
for a little bit of older kids, just because of how energetic she can
4:36
be. She's still puppy obviously, she's five months old, so she still
4:43
has all of that puppy energy wanting to run around and play. So maybe
4:48
even even if it's a small yard, but just like a yard that she
4:51
can run around, then would be great for her. She is stayed already,
4:57
so she is all ready to go. She has her vaccines and she's
5:00
microchips and all of that good stuff, so she is ready to go home.
5:04
She's a beautiful dog for someone who's really energetic like her though, okay,
5:10
it must has like human like features, like she looks like she has
5:13
wisdom to share with us, don't you see it in the face. Yes,
5:17
she's she has that big underbyte too, which is so cute. Well,
5:21
she's a beautiful dog. Any idea what kind of dog that she is?
5:27
No, not really, she is about this. She's not going to
5:31
get big, that's for sure. She's still very very like small to medium
5:35
sized right now. I wouldn't say she's gonna get much bigger than she is.
5:42
Maybe she'll get around to be about like forty or so pounds, but
5:46
I don't think she's going to be any bigger than that. Well, she's
5:49
an absolutely beautiful dog. It will make a great pet. And as you
5:51
said, she is good with with with kids and with other dogs. But
5:57
it's and it's a younger dog. And you said she was back through no
6:00
fault of her own, so we want to make make sure we put out
6:02
to put that out there. And in reading the notes that you sent me,
6:05
Hannah, she was she came in with fishing line wrapped around her neck.
6:10
Is that right? Yes, So when she came in, she was
6:15
actually brought in I believed by one of our humane officers found her with fishing
6:21
wire wrapped around her neck. Now, you know, we don't know if
6:26
that's intentional or fats accidental or how that happened, but she did have it
6:30
wrapped around her neck. So We did take that off of her, and
6:35
she didn't have hair there for a while, but she does now. She
6:39
looks great. She's beautiful, she's sweet, and she is just ready for
6:43
a good home. She would be a great one to go on, like
6:46
hikes and outdoor stuff, take to the dog part, stuff like that.
6:51
She's a very sweet girl. Glossom is the high energy companion we all need
6:56
to keep us in line throughout the summer. Right exactly, Well, we'll
7:03
kind of wrap up with the Blossom here. I'll go back to it.
7:05
You're in a couple of moments, but a hand of the details are starting
7:08
to come out now about one of your big events that you do there at
7:11
the shelter, and that's the Kegs for Canines. It's gonna be at the
7:15
Red Carpet Lounge on Friday, September the eighth, starts at five thirty.
7:16
What's this all about. Yeah, So, like you said, September eight,
7:23
it's at the Red Carpet Lounge. It's from five thirty and nine thirty,
7:27
and you can go get your tickets on our social media. You can
7:30
go to our actual social media page. Cannot trust in the main association,
7:35
and then you can just search up kegs for Canines, or if you scroll
7:39
down a little bit, you'll see where we've shared and posted about kegs for
7:43
Canines. It's basically a event that we have every year and you can come
7:48
and you can drink beer, and you can have your dogs there. You
7:51
can pet some dogs because we'll have some there, and you can get I
7:55
think we're gonna have a bunch of stuff to do this year, Like we
8:00
usually have safe painting, I believe. I'm not sure if we're gonna have
8:01
that this year, but I know we're gonna have some hair tenseling, and
8:05
we're gonna have a bunch of other stuff like friendship bracelets for even kids that
8:09
they wanted to come and make some friendship blass and stuff like that. So
8:13
mark your calendars. It's going to be very, very fun. We always
8:18
say cold beers for Cold Neses. It's really cute. I'll be there,
8:22
so it's gonna be great. Well that's worth the prise of admission right there,
8:24
because if people finally get to meet Hannah, she'll be there, So
8:28
it's going to be great. Friday, September, the age starts at five
8:30
thirty at the Red Carpet Lounge one of the things I wanted to get to
8:33
you with. There was something else that kind of caught my attention. I
8:35
was looking at, well, actually a couple of things that I want to
8:37
go over with you. I was looking at your Facebook page. You've got
8:39
a great deal going on with Petco, I understand now through the weekend.
8:45
Now on the page, there's a coupon that is good at Petco for twenty
8:48
five percent off of a purchase. There be a nice gift for an existing
8:52
pet or My mind goes to this, maybe it would be good that you
8:56
could go use that Petco coupon to buy some applies to donate to the shelter.
9:03
Yes, you could do that. We is the pictures of it is
9:07
on our social media, So if you just want to go screenshot that or
9:11
show them that, you can just show them that as a register. But
9:15
it is usable online as well, so it's very, very very handy.
9:20
We are excited to be having that to get out to just anyone. But
9:24
also if you adopt from us, we also give you a twenty percent off
9:28
coupon to Petco, even if it's not related to this week and so coup
9:35
all right, absolutely a matter of fact, I got a text of the
9:37
show that says please donate to the shelter, and they sent me. This
9:41
is somebody who obviously keeps tabs on what's going on the shelter, because they
9:45
sent me a picture of some of the things that that you could really use.
9:48
Purina dog chail, don dish soap, treats for dogs and cats of
9:52
any kind, laundry detergent that's to keep the blankets fresh, posable gloves,
10:00
paper towels, and linens including blankets and towels and use linens are welcome here,
10:05
we understand. And also they wanted to throw in this person, did
10:09
this person knows what you're talking about? The chief was placed to buy bleach
10:11
is dollar general. It's one dollar a gallon, So there you go,
10:16
there you go. Yeah, we do definitely need all of those things.
10:18
I know that dog food and linens and soap are a big thing right now.
10:24
We could also always there's never a time that we don't need dog colors.
10:28
We put a collar on every dog to walk through the door just as
10:33
a safety precaution, so we definitely could use some of those. But just
10:39
any anything that helps at all. Yeah, absolutely, something else that kind
10:43
of caught my attention. We'll close with this and this. There was a
10:46
family, Hannah, that had lost a loved one, someone in their family
10:50
had passed, and they asked instead of flowers or something like that, that
10:52
people make donations to the shelter in that person's name. That is quite common.
10:58
That goes on a lot, right, Yes, that actually actually happens
11:03
quite often. We have a lot of people donate in memory of people.
11:05
So if you or a loved one wanted to have that happened, you could
11:11
definitely do that. It's a very nice thing. It's a very it's a
11:16
very great option to have as well. Indeed, all right, Hannah,
11:18
it's always a pleasure to talk to you. And we won't talk to you
11:20
next week. I understand you're gonna be away, but we have somebody that's
11:24
going to be a subbing for you next week. We'll still have the adopt
11:26
me please put of the week next week. So thank you so much for
11:30
joining us. Enjoy your time. Awful talk to you here in a couple
11:31
of weeks. Thank you as sea there. All right, Sannah Garden from
11:35
the Canal Charles and New made association with this week's adopt Me. Please pet
11:39
of the week and Andy, I mean, what a beautiful dog, right,
11:43
I love the dogs. Such a cutie and I'm telling you the human
11:46
face is uncanny. Go look at the picture. It's it's a Dave Allen
11:50
radio on Facebook or at Dave a seventy on X if you've gotten used to
11:52
say an X yet or do you? Are you a Twitter person? I
11:54
keep saying Twitter, but I'm trying to get with the trend. It's just
11:58
Twitter to me, Blossom. It's five months old, microchip spade and ready
12:01
to join your home, vaccinated, loves kids and other playful dogs. She
12:07
was adopted and then got sent that they brought her back, but nothing that
12:11
she did. It's just the person adopted could not have the dog in her
12:13
apartment facility. Perfect high energy companion and she's five months old, meaning that
12:20
again, like you said, there's going to be some energy there. So
12:22
this is not last week we had a dog that said it was just that
12:24
he didn't say, but somebody said that the dog was just perfect to be
12:28
a companion to lay around to watch Netflix or whatever. This is not that
12:31
dog. This is a high energy dog. But there's nothing wrong with that
12:35
and with the dog being so young, this is one that could really grow
12:37
with your family. Dog absolutely loves kids. From what we understand, normal
12:41
puppy energy and then they start to mellow out. You want the puppy energy
12:45
though, Yeah, absolutely so. Go check out Blossom again available for adoption
12:48
with the Canal Charles Remain Association. Blossom with five months old, microchip,
12:52
Spade vaccinated checks, all the boxes ready to go to your home. Five

So bring the whole family. And it's again back to school. And again
20:23
we've kind of explained to people because I get text about a gym about why
20:26
it's ending earlier because it used to go through Labor Day. But school starts.
20:30
Yeah, we talk about that last week and the City of Charleston says,
20:33
hey, you know what, we think the attendance is a little lower
20:37
the lex last couple of weeks we have school. You know, schools used
20:41
to start, as we talked about before day, the day after Labor Day
20:44
when we were growing up. Now school starts, you know, all kind
20:47
of started and here we are. So yeah, we're just gonna let the
20:51
kids get back to school. We're gonna let folks enjoy the Friday night lights,
20:55
and we're just gonna call it a season. We'll reconvene, we'll reevaluate
21:00
the Live and Levy season number twenty. We'll be back next Memorial Day weekend.
21:03
I'm already looking forward to that. By the way, Dave, what
21:06
am I gonna do without you on Friday? Well, maybe I would just
21:07
sneak in. We continue to have a what do you call it? The
21:11
fun house Friday? Maybe we can continue this. Yeah, we did that
21:14
last year for a few months and then you finally just said okay, Jim,
21:15
enough, okay, Well Jim. Jim always says something going on to
21:19
promote I'll be in. I'll be in, brother. And did I see
21:22
on your social media that you're gonna be up at at ELK you tomorrow for
21:26
the Herbert I'll be there. I'm Elk River strong, brother, I'm a
21:29
proud alum. Yeah, I will be there. I'm looking forward to being
21:33
on the field and I'm I really just want to say thanks to the leadership
21:37
that happened up at ELK River the last seven years, from Mike Kelly down
21:41
to the Mayor of Clinden and Mayor Summers and everyone that's had a hand in
21:45
this whole project. It's going to be I told McKenzie in the green room,
21:48
there'll be a few tiers flowing. I'm taking my eighty five year old
21:52
mother with me and so I'll just probably cried. Is holding her hand as
21:56
we watched the ribbon cutting for the new Herbert Hoover High School. I'm very
21:59
proud day. Have you had a chance to walk through the school yet,
22:02
because I've only been on the outside. I've not been inside just yet.
22:04
So I'm I'm looking forward to a little tour. I'm looking forward to a
22:07
little football. I'm looking forward to seeing a country music artist who people know
22:11
very well. We suppose you will be there and he's he's had a little
22:15
hand in our resurgence, and he was there when we when we flooded,
22:18
so he had to come back to see the finished product. So I'm looking
22:21
forward to tomorrow. It's gonna be a big, big, big day up
22:23
here. We'd like to have everybody out there, but if something happens that
22:26
you can we are going to be broadcast are streaming it right or broadcast yet
22:30
with Jared Lewis and Chris Lawrence and Jeff Jay and I'll actually have it on
22:33
the air tomorrow, so that is good. So I'm gonna leave you with
22:36
this. I'm glad we're getting all this video and audio of this ceremony and
22:41
this momentous time in our canal valley because I think this is a national story
22:45
waiting that needs to be told. The resiliency of the Elk River people and
22:49
this whole project. I think it's a national story and I'm waiting for it
22:52
to be told. I'm glad we're getting some footage in some audio because we're
22:56
gonna need that for the documentary. And what these kids, you know,
22:59
and the staff went through the last couple of years doing their class room work,
23:03
you know, from these modular buildings or whatever. Their test scores actually
23:06
went up the seed in the classroom. They've excelled on the athletic arena,
23:11
and now they're getting the tools that they deserve. So I'm looking forward to
23:15
it. Dave, I got to run, Andy, have a good weekend.

24:17
It's with the South. Yeah, with the South Charleston Convention and Visitors
24:21
Bureau. She joined us now, Vicky, good morning, How are you?
24:22
Good morning? I'm fun. How are you? I'm doing fine.
24:26
My co host this week is Andy Bernhardt, who I know you've seen on
24:29
TV on WWK TV thirteen. I love watching the Summer Fest. We've had
24:33
so many clips and we saw one this morning of this kid doing the best
24:37
dance. Did you see it? I don't know what the move was,
24:41
but it was something we need to take notes on. Yeah, how everyone
24:44
enjoys our dance contests every night at seven thirty, one for children and one
24:48
for adults, and it's just so entertaining. I love seeing the kids out
24:52
there. Now, this has actually been going on. When what did it
24:55
start? Twenty two years ago? Okay, I meant, I meant this
24:59
week, but at that that's a good point too. That's a great point
25:03
to twenty two years? When did it starts? Twenty two? Uh?
25:06
It started on Wednesday. It's always Wednesday Saturn. Okay, And how's it
25:10
been so far? It's been very good. We had a really good turn
25:12
out Wednesday night. Last night was a little bit lower because the I get
25:17
it, kids getting ready to go back to school. But we had the
25:21
Tams last night and the fourteen Carrot Gold and they were wonderful, really good
25:26
performance, so we enjoyed that. And then also uh, Kevin and d
25:30
Twoig came out with the Charleston Shags Society and they offered lessons uh to go
25:37
with the Tams and uh and they shagged on the you know, we have
25:42
the dance floor in front of the mounds, so it's so much fun.
25:45
So that was entertaining just watching the Shaggers last night. Indeed, it was
25:49
anytime you get a good shag, I mean, that's that's that's what the
25:52
prize remission right there and you and you know, the weather has been absolutely
25:56
fantastic, and you know, we just talked to the folks that live on
25:59
the levy. They'd get their their final event of the year going on.
26:03
I understand. I think Jenny Murray was down there last night for Summerfestiman V
26:06
One night was she was. She was down there last night. There's a
26:10
radio station each night at Summerfest, so she was down there last night and
26:15
we just really enjoy her. She's so much fun now. So musically,
26:18
what do we have to look forward to for the rest of the weekend.
26:22
So tonight, back by popular demand, we have Seven Bridges, the Ultimate
26:29
Eagles Experience, and we usually have a really really large crowd for that.
26:33
Plus it's Friday Night and it'll start out with the Danly Band, which is
26:37
country, but then we have the Seven Bridges, So we're totally excited about
26:41
that tonight. And they're great. I mean I actually had a chance to
26:45
work I Am Seed one of their shows h several years ago, and those
26:48
those guys. If you love the Eagles, and I mean, let's face
26:51
it, who doesn't love the Eagles. I Mean they're one of those those
26:53
groups that just everybody knows, if you don't like this song, we're gonna
26:56
like the next one. And they do it. They do a fantastic job.
27:00
So if you're an Eagles fan, you show up on Friday's great great
27:03
party music for the Friday night and you got your ballads and your love songs
27:06
and whatnot. On there as well. So seven Bridges is fantastic who we
27:10
got the rest of the weekend, and then on Saturday we have Non Friction,
27:17
which is a local band that they're going to be the first band at
27:19
six o'clock. They're a local band and they played like some eighties and nineties
27:25
music, and then Rick Kay in the road Trip. Rick Kay has been
27:30
popular with Summerfest for years and years. He puts on a fantastic show and
27:34
he plays a variety of music, so it's a show along with really good
27:38
dance tunes. Rick Kay is I mean, he's become sort of an institution
27:44
in West Virginia. I mean he's been doing it for a long time,
27:47
and he's had different variations of his band over the years, of course,
27:49
going back to the Rick Kay and the All Eighters and just a fantastic and
27:52
Andy. I'll tell you if you've never seen Rick Kay, the guy is
27:56
absolutely fantastic. I mean he really isn't his band. If you like party
27:59
music, you can be in the worst mood possible and you go out to
28:03
a show and you will not be in a bad mood for very long.
28:07
Well, it sounds like I know where I'm going to be Saturday now and
28:10
I heard there's fireworks too, right, Yes, at ten pm we will
28:15
have fireworks and that will conclude Summerfest. So it's really going to be a
28:19
wonderful. It's always a really good fireworks display. And if you're somewhere along
28:25
Seventh Avenue there where where the mound is, well, you can see the
28:29
fireworks anywhere, but that's a really good spot to be well Dale Cooper my
28:33
production. Now we want to know about the food. We have some food
28:37
trucks and we have, you know, several We probably have about ten different
28:45
food trucks and they have a variety of food. So you know, there's
28:49
strawberry shortcake, there's barbecue, there's loaded mac and cheese. The Woman's Club
28:56
of South Charleston has homemade ice cream. So and then also the city of
29:02
South Charleston provides free snow cones for kids, so that's pretty popular. There
29:07
you go, There you go, all right, So give us all the
29:10
details again, Where can people learn more? I know you do a great
29:11
job on your social media. Is that the best place to check out for
29:15
schedules? We would hope that you would like us on the South Charleston Convention
29:19
of Visitor Bureau on Facebook. We would love for you to do that because
29:23
we're always putting events on there also are it's really easy. Our our website
29:30
is visit south Charleston, w V dot com, so that's easy. Visit
29:36
South Charleston, WV dot com and you'll have a lineup of the information there.
29:41
And we're really we're super excited about tomorrow. We have a car show.
29:45
Awesome. I mean, people, we love our cars here and this
29:48
part of the world, and so we do things for everyone. I mean,
29:51
you can't be boy, that's for sure. And the food sounds delicious.
29:55
Is it too early for all that? Andy told us he gets up
30:00
at two am, you know, to do the morning news, so she's
30:02
already told us that this is this is her one or two o'clock PM right
30:06
now. So yeah, well maybe we could swing down there. I'm already
30:08
ready to party. Just remember everything at Summerfest starts around six pm. The
30:15
food trucks usually open around five, but everything, you know, the first
30:18
entertainers start at six pm, so it's an evening event. And we when
30:22
we also have back this huge ferrist Will this year and so that's also very
30:27
popular and it's not going to be a secret, because I'm going to tell
30:30
it right now. Any kid who is in the dance contest gets a free
30:37
ticket to ride the Ferris Wheel. Well, that kid makes sense now because
30:41
he was given it his own. It was off for the free ticket.
30:42
Was I had just got up this morning and turned the TV on and I
30:47
saw it and I thought, okay, what you know? My eyes weren't
30:49
focused you at the coffee head and kicked in. I though, is this
30:52
what's going on with this kid here? I mean, is he okay?
30:55
And he did a fantastic job. Quick text here for you, Vicky from
31:00
a text line that says the Shag is the official South Carolina State Dance s
31:06
C for South Carolina, s C for South Charleston. Maybe the city should
31:10
make it an official city dance. Oh that's a good idea, It really
31:15
is. And I'm gonna tell you something funny. I get a lot of
31:18
calls from people thinking that we're Charleston, South Carolina. You know, as
31:23
long as they show up, it don't matter. Yeah, as long as
31:27
they show up. But I'm sure we can get shrimp and grit somewhere.
31:30
So yeah, Vicky, you folks do a fantastic job, and I appreciate
31:33
you. You and Mary Mullins and Randy and all the folks there with the
31:37
South Charleston CVB. We'll see you. We'll see you the last couple of

A couple of quick notes here before we get to our guest host today,
35:15
Andy Bernhardt. First of all, thank you to everybody who made the
35:17
sixteenth Annual Beat Backpack Attack such a huge success. Woody would g money everyone
35:22
one of the seventh three to Beat just killed it again for the sixteenth Annual
35:27
Backpack Attack. Of course, a big shout out Tod, Judy Motors and
35:30
all of our sponsors for making it all possible. I pulled back Andy under
35:34
Virginia Street. I'd run some errands and whatever, and I came back into
35:37
Virginia Street about two o'clock yesterday afternoon. The people were already lined up all
35:43
the way down the street. Didn't start till three, and they were lined
35:45
up all the way down the street. We gave away about five hundred backpacks.
35:49
I mean, you had to get it while it was hot. We
35:50
s I saw the line four and O I was like, okay, get
35:52
it together, people, And you know, this is a this is a
35:55
Beat thing. But all of us are out there, of the different departments
35:59
of the station, you know, from the sales department to engineering to you
36:02
know, office staff whatever, out there just kind of connecting with the but
36:06
this is all the Woody Woods came up with this thing sixteen years ago and
36:09
it's just been absolutely fantastic. So again thanks to Todd Becky and everyone at
36:13
Todd Judy Motors and all of our all of our sponsors for making it all
36:19
possible. So we speaking of which, if you look over to your immediate
36:23
left, Miss Bernhardt, on the table, you have your own beat backpack.
36:31
That is your It's the tradition I started last year because last year,
36:36
the day after we did the backpack attack. The day after Amanda Baron was
36:42
our guest host. What are the chances me and her joke were the two
36:45
abs, So it's only right, and so I gave her one. She
36:49
actually asked for one. She actually she said can I have one? And
36:51
I said no, but but but no, you have your own beat backpack
36:55
attack. Now I'm back pack I should say, not backpack attack. I'll
36:59
put it on and wear it back into the office today. So everyone else's
37:01
got some cool stuff in it. So so there you go, enjoy enjoy
37:05
your backpack, all right, Andy, So you're starting to see the way
37:08
we do the things right here on Friday Funhouse from the Parmar stores to do.
37:13
It's a thrill a minute here. But I want to hear about Andy
37:15
Bernhardt. Where does your story begin? Originally, well, on a dark
37:19
and gloomy to not just kidding. Well, I'm from Kenosha, Wisconsin,
37:22
and then I went to college at Illinois State. And then I worked at
37:27
a news station in Peoria, Illinois for a year, and then I came
37:30
out here, worked in our Huntington Bureau, moved down to Saint Albans and
37:34
now I'm in Charleston and here we are. And so you've been here for
37:37
how long? Just over two years now? I think I hit my two
37:42
years like a month or two ago. Well, obviously you must. You
37:45
must like what you're doing here. I love it. I love the people
37:47
here. That's been the number one favorite thing, like going out on stories.
37:51
Everyone is just so nice and you never know what you're gonna get when
37:53
you go out there. What is it about the area other than the people
37:57
that you like? I mean, because there's a world of difference tween Kenosha,
38:00
Wisconsin in Charleston, West Virginia. When I tell you when I got
38:04
here and I saw mountains because I went to college Flatland, Illinois, it's
38:07
just cornfields, and I saw the mountains and my jaw was on the floor.
38:09
And then my mom was in the car next to me. She hates
38:13
heights, and we were driving up the mountain. She was like, Andy
38:15
Bernhard, you slowed on right now. So the mountains have been gorgeous,
38:17
the scenery. I've gone up to New River gorge too. Great time,
38:21
so much to do. Okay, So now have you always been Andy?
38:23
I mean, is that that your neighbor, Because a lot of people they'll
38:25
say it's it's Andrey Air. It's something now, So I mean, is
38:28
that Andy the name? Yes, it's just Andy and a lot I think
38:30
Andrew. It's from Pretty in Pink the movie. If you've seen it,
38:34
yeah, I have. When you're a Generation X person, you know,
38:38
I was sure if you heard of it. I was in high school when
38:40
that movie came out. Actually very much so. So you're named after Andy
38:44
for Pretty and Pink. See there's something you didn't know there. You go
38:46
lunch up with meats with Andy Bernhard, and of course you got a great
38:50
crew over there, Manda Baron. As I said, it's been one of
38:52
my closest friends for probably twenty years. Brian Hughes, Nicky Walters, Cassidy
38:57
Spencer, the whole gang. I think I've had just about all of them
39:00
on the show at one time or another. They're all great. A Man
39:02
has been a really great mentor. And then of course my morning crew they're
39:06
great as well. They keep me entertained throughout the times. Well, any
39:08
time me around Brian Hughes, you're gonna be entertained. Yeah, that's for
39:12
sure. You never know what's gonna come out. That's true. Was doing
39:15
TV news was it something you always wanted to do growing up? It actually
39:19
was. I always just kind of thought it looks really cool, and I
39:22
was just really into journalism and I was thinking about print. But I was
39:24
like, I just like how TV it's more visual. You can kind of
39:28
get all the senses with TV. Yeah, it's so much goes into it
39:32
that people don't don't realize. And even probably as you and I were talking
39:37
off the air, you know, radio is one thing, and I've done
39:39
radio now for thirty five years, and but there's a difference when you have
39:44
a camera on you and they tell me that when they redo the studios that
39:46
they're supposed to be doing around here, that I'm actually gonna have cameras and
39:50
you're much like Hoppy has on talk line. But I don't know how I
39:52
feel about that. I'm gonna be really honest with you because, like you
39:54
know, a couple of days ago, we had a little computer issue.
39:57
Well Coop is in here kind of over top of my shoulder working. Well,
40:00
you couldn't do that if you were on television, or probably you shouldn't
40:02
anyway, I'll say that. And so I don't know necessarily how that's going
40:06
to translate to television. You won't be able to get away with much.
40:08
Yeah, that's true. They have some of the facial expressions and I have
40:12
and whatever. You know, I don't have to have to have to work
40:15
on that. And as someone who did morning as I did morning radio for
40:20
twenty straight years at one station, then went away for a while too.
40:22
Yeah, then I came back and did the mornings at a station here in
40:27
the Charleston area for a while. My wake up time was three am and
40:32
be in bedtime was around eight thirty or so. What about you? Because
40:37
I know this is the question that you because people automatically when you say what
40:40
you know, you you're on the air, because you guys go on at
40:43
four thirty, right, Yeah, and people that's a question. You get
40:45
that Kroger and everywhere you go into and people say what time do you go
40:49
to bed? Yes, everybody's very curious about it. Well, so I'm
40:52
known as like the responsible early sleeper on the crew. A lot of them
40:54
can go on short hours, but I can't do that. I need my
40:57
eight hours. So I try to go to bed by like six or seven,
41:00
and then I wake up at two in the morning. Yeah. I
41:02
mean, it's really it's just whatever you get used to. Yeah. I
41:06
mean. I did one stint at a radio station, some filling work where
41:09
I was doing midnight to six am. I absolutely hated it. That was
41:14
the worst possible shift for me because I am a morning person. I even
41:17
as a kid, my mother never had a hard time getting me out of
41:21
bed to go to school. I just I just I was up in the
41:22
summer. I was up at six or six thirty every morning. I mean,
41:25
just who I am. I did a shift like that too, it
41:28
was twelve to seven or eight, and I did horrible on that shift.
41:30
I felt sick because I was like, oh, it's so late. It's
41:32
a different world. It's a different kind of people that can do, you
41:37
know, the midnight shift, or they can do the morning the morning shifts.
41:38
It's you need the motivation when you wake up. Yeah, and then
41:42
if you go away and you take off because I know, like you know
41:45
Carrie Whoda Sex that does the morning news for us, carries on vacation this
41:47
week, she'll come back next week. If you take time off, if
41:51
you're on vacation or whatever, do you have a hard time getting back into
41:52
the rhythm or if you're at the beach or wherever you are. You said,
41:55
well, at six o'clock, I'm going to bed. No funny,
41:59
I was, I'm vacation. So this week has been a little humbling,
42:02
But it's just you kind of when you come back, you're like, you're
42:05
just going to be sleep deprived the first day and then you'll find the rest
42:07
of the week because you're so tired from not sleeping. Yeah. Yeah,
42:09
it's a different world what we do. Yes, and I'm you know,

45:49
So we'll get back to Andy Burnhardt here and just a couple of moms
45:52
getting to know her. But I want to do ten questions right now.
45:53
These are ten totally at random questions. You have not seen the questions I'll
46:00
all give. My producers and my rather extensive staff of the show have come
46:02
up with these ourselves. Answer them as quickly as possible, first thing that
46:07
comes into your mind. And as always for those listening at home, no
46:12
wagering. Andy Barnhardt, are you ready to play ten questions? I think
46:15
so? All right, here we go. Being that you are from Wisconsin,
46:21
do you Wisconsin people like cheese as much as the stereotype would lead you
46:24
to believe, and if you do. What does Andy Bernhardt's go to cheese?
46:30
We love it more? Actually I love cheese and I love all cheese,
46:34
but I love cheese Kurd's the best. So okay does that count?
46:37
Yeah? Okay, sure, there's no right or wrong? Okay, okay.
46:42
I also know by following you on social media that you're a huge Taylor
46:45
Swift fan. Favorite Taylor Swift song? Hey, how could you do this
46:51
to me? How am I supposed to? Fay? I can't name one?
46:52
So so you're ahead of Maid, So go ahead. I love them
46:55
all my favorite favorite album's reputations. I'll do off there. I like,
47:00
are you ready for it? That's a good one. Okay, all right,
47:02
you're in a grocery store. What is your biggest pet peeve from the
47:07
other shoppers. I don't like when people walk solo. I'm trying to like,
47:10
speed around grab stuff, but people are talking pulling over. I can't
47:15
do it. Yes, I'm right there with you. Beach, Mountain or
47:20
City. Oh, I love the Beach. The Beach. This is the
47:24
television show that I could watch for hours or days at a time and never
47:30
get tired of it. The Office. I think i've watched that three thousand
47:34
times and I was like, you're done watching it? I just restarted it
47:37
again. It's okay. Side question, favorite character in the office. See,
47:42
that's a hard question too. I mean, Dwight's a classic, but
47:44
I really I just love Michael. He's iconic. You never know what's going
47:47
to come out of his mouth. I go with two of the of the
47:50
of the more non prominent character, Stanley. Great choice, Stanley and Todd
47:54
Packer. Oh, Todd Packer. I also love Kelly Kapor too, She's
47:58
a good one. I've actually called Todd Packer a couple of times a thing.
48:02
But anyways, all right, let's get back to it, all right,
48:06
since it is back to school time, Andy, what is the name
48:09
of the one teacher that you absolutely could not stand in school? You're really
48:14
calling me out right now? Well, hopefully that they're not listening, right.
48:16
I'm sure it's not list I'm sure your parents are. I'm safe because
48:19
I'm in West Virginia. Wistunson can't see. I don't think I ever hated
48:22
a specific teacher, but math teachers and I didn't get along because I'm horrible
48:27
at math. So just about everybody in media isn't. I don't know why
48:30
that Cooper you got at math? You know I got better at math in
48:35
my adult age than I was when I was in school. Oh okay,
48:37
I just got worse, so did I. Okay, if you weren't a
48:40
television personality, what do you think you may be doing for your career?
48:45
Oh that's a good question. I'm not good at answering fast either. I
48:50
don't know. I would like to think, you know what, I went
48:52
whitewater rafting lately. I would love to be a whitewater rafter instructor. Okay,
48:57
why not name a task around the house that you absolutely hate doing?
49:00
Cleaning, cooking, both. I am most comfortable when I'm wearing my sweat
49:07
pants and hoodie. There you go, all right. Final question, where's
49:09
your favorite place to eat in the Canala Valley? Oh? Okay, Main
49:14
Street Cafe hands down, love me Yeah, best place, the best burgers
49:20
around. The wings dried pickles, dipped and grilled. You gotta get the
49:23
wings dipped and grilled. That's the only way to get them dipped and grilled.
49:27
Is that different than the regular Yeah, they put it, they dip
49:30
it in the sauce and then then they run it under the grill. Where
49:32
did you learn this life hat? Why am I not knowing this? When
49:37
I used to work in Saint Alban's and the people they're just told me.
49:40
They said when we all went to lunch, he said, you gotta get
49:43
the wings dipped and grilled. That's the only way to give him on my
49:45
way. Yeah, you get to I just tried the Carolina barbecue. I
49:47
think they call it a couple of weeks ago. There. I had never
49:50
had it before. It's actually pretty good. All right, Well that haven't
49:52
been said. You have completed ten questions. WHOA you did good? You
49:55
did all right? So you posted a picture the wanting of you in your
50:00
school days. Very nice picture, by the way. Were you a good
50:04
student? And did young Andy enjoyce school? This is not part of ten
50:08
questions? This is another. This is a bonus question. Yeah, yeah,
50:10
okay. I would say I'm just was very positive and energetic. So
50:15
I had a good attitude. But I have ADHD. So teachers didn't love
50:19
me because I was kind of distracting. I talked too much, if you
50:22
could believe it. So, but I got d as and b's. So
50:25
there is a profile that would be absolutely fantastic for people. Look at my
50:30
wife was a psychology major, even though that's not what she does for a
50:32
living now, she was a psychology major, and we all pretty much if
50:37
you set a bunch of radio and television people down and you talk to them,
50:39
ninety percent of the answers are going to be the same about how they
50:43
were to go. I was, I got an F and conduct. What
50:45
I got an F and conduct? My teacher wrote on my report card,
50:50
talks and talks and in the next ten weeks or whatever, still talking.
50:55
They put on it. Yeah, that's what I did. And I get
50:59
a lot of people say, I always knew you would do something like this
51:01
for a living, because this is this is what we did. It's just
51:04
kind of our personality. The ADHD is a huge, huge thing. We
51:07
get yelled at for it, and now we get paid for it. Yeah,
51:09
so look at it. Well, some of us still get yelled at
51:12
for its other settings. So, uh so, why Andy said it's put
51:16
a pleasure heavy on the on the show today, Oh yeah, one of
51:20
the things I didn't want to ask you and Jim Strong kind of alluded to
51:22
this. There's gonna be a big announcement coming from w w k TV thirteen.
51:28
Now you know you care to give us a little hint, a little
51:30
hint. Okay, what are you allowed to say so I don't get y'alled
51:32
that for talking, right, so you don't become a permanent co host?
51:36
Right ahead, I'll say it's a big announcement about a new face who's going
51:40
to be adjoining Amanda Baron on the evening show. So you're definitely gonna want
51:45
to be there for it. All right, Well, we'll be looking at
51:46
the windessy annoucement coming tonight. It's live might be in our five o'clock too
51:52
