• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Joke Factory.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Only on Country 92.5.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Joke time! That means it's prize time, and the prize is,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Tessa Grace?
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Four tickets to the Guilford Fair.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Fantastic, if you can figure out this joke.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: Did you know that garbage men don't have to go
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: to school?
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: What?
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Did you know that garbage men don't have to go
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: to school?
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: I have no idea what the punchline is to that,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: but somebody needs to know it so they can go
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: to the Guilford Fair for free. And I'm willing to
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: bet Amanda Jo does not know the punchline either. Why not?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Did they pick up trash?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, yes, she got part of the answer in there.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: That was very good. You will see her genius momentarily
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: when you give me the punchline and we give you
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: a four-pack to the Guilford Fair. Some serious fun down
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: by the shoreline. I think it's definitely next weekend.

  Speaker 2: It's Jackie.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Jackie. Oh, this is going to be so fun. The
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Guilford Fair, beautiful place, good times. If only you can
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: give me the punchline, which Amanda Jo had part of.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Did you know that garbage men don't have to go
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: to school?
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: They just pick it up as they go along. Hey,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Tessa Grace? Yes?
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Did you know that garbage men don't have to go
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: to school?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: They just pick it up as they go along.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Make sense.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Jackie Storrs. Four tickets to the Guilford Fair again. It
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: is next weekend. I think I'm there Saturday night. They
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: have a wonderful George Strait tribute band that I'm going
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: to introduce, but you come whenever you want, okay?
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: That sounds awesome.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: You hang on one second, and we'll be right back
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: to get your details. I knew I'd get you eventually
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: this morning. She beat me at batting practice yesterday. She
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: figured out my fake story today, but the kids always
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: bring her back down to earth. Coming up next, it's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: The Scoop.

  Speaker 4: got announced yesterday.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Happy Hump Day and Care Bears Share Your Care Day.

• 2:29
  Speaker 3: Care Bear Stare.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: So you had a Care Bear.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: They lit up or something, right? No. Or they had
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: something in the middle of them, a patch?
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they all had a different patch in the middle
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: of their stomach.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Gotcha.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Box Wine Day. There's one for the wife. What? When

  Speaker 1: our Fascinating Facts. And Wonderful Weirdos Day, celebrating geeks, freaks,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: and misfits. Birthdays today. Country singer Hunter Hayes is 35.

  Speaker 1: Michael Bublé is 51. Elliot from E.T., Henry Thomas, 55.

  Speaker 1: Dukes of Hazzard. Tom Wopat is 75. Just the good
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: old boys. Never mean no harm. Happy Wednesday from the

  Speaker 1: Country 92.5 Morning Show. Five fifty eight. It is hump
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: day Wednesday, September 9th. My name is Damon and this
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: is Amanda Jo. She's going to hit the headlines for
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: us real quick.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Weather today. Mix of clouds and sun, mostly sun.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: A little more humid, possible scattered shower late day, but
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: highs will be around low 80s. Tonight, the NFL season
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: kicks off with a Super Bowl rematch. Pats versus Seahawks
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: in Seattle, 8-20. You can watch on NBC and Peacock. Yeah,
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: I'm probably only going to make it the first, like,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: I'll probably push the first hour.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Good for you, man.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be tired tomorrow. Maybe I'll leave it
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: on the background and hope I absorb it in my slumber.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Oh, Kelly's Cone Connection in Hamden. They've made national news
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: for their Abit's Treat. It is a waffle cone base
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: shaped to look like pizza topped with strawberry basil ice
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: cream topped with strawberry sundae sauce and grated.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: White chocolate and white chocolate basil leaves. Cocoa on the
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: crust even to give it that New Haven char too.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: It looks cute and probably delicious. I guess they do
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: it all the time. They've done tacos and clams and
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: all kinds of crap.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it looks pretty cool. Strawberry sundaes aren't
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: my jam, though.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: No, I would try.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: I would try it.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: See, that's news around here. Somebody made an ice cream pizza.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: What brings you joy?
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what brings you joy? Take a quick break. Get
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you some traffic. And then fascinating facts have to do.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I said earlier it's when pigs fly day. That's when
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: improbable things happen. So I'm going to tell you some
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: improbable things that did happen. Coming up next here on
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Country 92.5. I'm going to send a shout out to
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: my friend Cowboy Joe who writes to me, sends me
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a note. Are you going to be at Aldean Saturday?
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: To which I replied, really? Good morning, brother. Go lay
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: down some asphalt. Fascinating facts. Like I said, today is
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: when pigs fly day. There's a day that you celebrate
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: things that should not have happened. So I found three
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: things like that. 51-year-old electrician Mike McDermott won the lottery
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: twice in one year. And both times he used the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: same numbers. Vanessa Volnik, 22-year-old flight attendant, was working a
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: flight that exploded on from a terrorist bomb, she fell
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: six miles to the ground and survived.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: What?
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Six miles? How?
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Legit.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: How? And closer to home, legendary writer, I think I've
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: done this before, and humorous Mark Twain, was born during
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Halley's Comet in 1835. He said, I will die during
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: its return in 1910. As improbable as it was, he
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: did indeed pass away on that day.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: That's creepy.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: When pigs fly.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: That's creepy.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, it is The Scoop, an inside look
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: at country music. What do you got?
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't have anything creepy, but I do have
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: a taste of New Era Church.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: What? It's on the way here at the Country 92.5
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Morning Show. Dan and Shay and Justin Bieber.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Did I ever.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Tell you I interviewed Justin Bieber? Did I ever tell
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: you that story?
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: No, actually. Like Baby Bieber?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I'll make it really quick. We're at the Grammys. I
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: went to the Grammys a lot. And it's getting late.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: We're at Radio Row. And a guy walks over and says, hey,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: there's this kid here. He's looking for interviews. I go,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: who is he? Justin Bieber. And I interviewed him. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: right after that, he blew up.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: So you met Baby Bieber.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: And I had lines where it's like, hi, I'm Justin Bieber.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: And I want to be like Damon Scott when I
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: grow up. It's fun. It's different.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Do you want to be Justin Bieber now when you
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: grow up?
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I do not. Time for The Scoop, sponsored by Monaco Ford.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: By the way, we are the Country 92.5 Morning Show.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I am Damon. That is Amanda Jo.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Eric Church putting out a new song tomorrow. That's what
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: the teaser was all about. Here is a clip of
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: On the Road. I don't imagine if the song's called
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: On the Road, maybe he'll hit the road pretty soon. Yeah.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: So possibility of album and road maybe coming up. Just
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: nothing yet.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: Florida Georgia Line changed their profile pic on their social
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: for the first time in five years.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying it's getting real. It's getting real, real.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: So fingers crossed we get some tour dates soon. Corey Kent, though,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: he did release some new tour dates. Now, Corey, in
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: recent years, did one of our shows. Then he went
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: and he opened for Morgan Wallen. He's been out on
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: the road with Al Dean. Going to be coming to
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Toad's Place on March 18th with Jacob Hackworth. Tickets will
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: go on sale tomorrow. Friday, LiveNation.com. But his brand new single,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: I am obsessed. It's called Empty Words.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Got kind of a bluesy vibe about him.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: We just added that one to our official Country 92.5 playlist.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: His album Heartland Rock and Roll will be out on
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: the 25th.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Coming to Toad's place, huh?
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Cool.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, feel good story. With the huge anniversary
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: of 9-11 coming up, a story of just this amazing
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: gal's quest. I will tell you all about it in
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: 15 minutes here on the Country 92.5 Morning Show. Country 92.5.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday. This is the Morning Show. That's Amanda Jo.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: My name is Damon. Today's feel-good story. Hannah Bourne was
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: only three years old when she and her sister were
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: rescued from the Pentagon on 9-11. But as she grew up,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: she started to understand what she had lived through, came
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: to realize the weight of that day, especially how lucky
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: they were and how many weren't so lucky. Today, her
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: and her sister both serve in the military. She's a
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: captain in the Air Force. Her sister is a bona
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: fide Marine. But what's even more exceptional is her run
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: to remember 2977. She is running a mile for every
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: life lost on 9-11, and she's documenting it very well
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: on social media. She carries her phone along, and she
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: checks in at every mile, naming who it's dedicated to.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: She says she hopes it serves as a reminder to
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the families that they will not be forgotten and hopes
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: that it will inspire the next generation to carry forward
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: that promise to never forget. And it's working. I mean,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I was looking at a bunch of her videos, tens
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: of thousands of likes, comments with every post, a lot
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: of them from families of law... those lost expressing their gratitude.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: She wanted to complete it in a year, but she
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: changed her approach. She's taken some special runs. For example,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: on Friday, she will run 34.3 miles from Long Beach
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: to Ground Zero for the 343 firefighters who died that day. Wow.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to end with one of her favorite quotes.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: The best way to honor the people we lost on
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: 9-11 is to be the people we were on 9-12.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: That was choking me up.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: As well it should. Country 92.5, it's The Morning Show.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Country 92.5. Happy Wednesday. We're the morning show. 648. My
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: name's Damon, and here is Amanda Jo. Just to hit
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: a few headlines for you.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Weather today makes the sun and clouds a little more humid.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: Possible scattered shower late day, but highs will be upper
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: 80s or upper 70s, low 80s. Tonight, the NFL season
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: kicks off with the Pats versus the Seahawks in Seattle.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: 820 kickoff, NBC and Peacock. Also tonight. In Bridgeport at
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: the Amp, John Fogarty and Steve Winwood.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: That would be a decent show. Right.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: LiveNation.com. That's more your jam than football tonight.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: And Apple today is having their what they're calling surprise
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: and shine event. New devices are going to get rolled
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: out at one o'clock.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Expected.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: They're expected to roll out the foldable iPhone Ultra, the
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: As well as AirPods 5.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: And this is going to be a big moment because
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: this is the first time the new CEO has taken
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: over for Tim Cook. So if that's your jam, you
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: can watch via YouTube and Apple's event page. But I
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: have a feeling a lot of those things that come out.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: You can hear nerds cheering.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but I have a lot of those things that
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: probably come out will be on people's Christmas lists.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: I hate to say it.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, I have all Apple stuff, but it's so
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: dang expensive, man.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Anyhoo, there you go.
