Let's welcome to the show, as we do every Friday. Hannah Gardner
3:12
from the Cannell Charles Humaine Association with this week's Adopt Me Please Pet of the
3:15
Week. Hannah, good morning, Welcome to the show. Good morning,
3:20
how are you doing fine? Welcome, Welcome again in happy March, by
3:23
the way, happy March had be March. Let's get to our ped of
3:27
the week as always. Picture posted on my social media Dave Allan Radio and
3:31
Facebook and the Dave Allan Show at Dave A seventy on X. That's the
3:35
artist formally known as Twitter. This morning, we have a lovely creature by
3:38
the name of Copper. Tell us about Copper. Yeah, so Copper is
3:46
well. He's very very handsome. He's like a chocolatey like reddish caller.
3:53
He's if you ask me what he was. I'm not entirely sure what he
3:58
is. He's got to be like pound mixed with something like a kid or
4:05
at. He needs to have something different in him, maybe like bast hound
4:10
as well, because he's got these legs in the front that are like shorter.
4:15
So while he is around fifty four pounds, sorry you're hearing my dogs.
4:20
He is around fifty four pounds, he's still got like rather shorter legs,
4:27
so he's definitely worth taking the look at. He's definitely a very very
4:30
handsome man. He's around three years old, and he was a surrender to
4:36
us, so I'm not entirely sure of the reason that he was surrendered to
4:44
us, but I know that he was a surrender to us. He prefers
4:46
female dogs over male dogs. He can be a little more assertive when it
4:50
comes to mail dogs unless they're more submissive male dogs. So if you do
4:57
have male dogs that you want to maybe want to bring up to do a
5:01
meet and greet with Copper, you can definitely do that. But he's very
5:05
very friendly with people. He definitely is a little shot at first, so
5:11
we definitely always advise everybody to go rather slower with him, not too slow.
5:16
He's not super shot, but he definitely is a little bit headshot,
5:20
which means that like if you're going over his head or if you're going to
5:25
go put your hand over his head and start petting him, it might make
5:28
him a little uncomfortable. He might kind of hucker down a little bit and
5:31
give you like a little bit of like a whale eye kind of just side
5:34
as you. But he he just needs someone who can work with him,
5:39
give him a little TLC and just help him understand that you know, it's
5:43
okay. Well, it sounds like sounds like he would make a great family
5:46
pant as you said, and especially with somebody that could work with him a
5:49
little bit. Is he Is he vaccinated? Is he microchip? Is he
5:53
fixed? We have all those all those boxes checked off, so he is
5:59
vaccinated and he has been microchipped. Every dog if they come in the door,
6:04
they get micro chipped and vaccinated. But I do not think that he
6:09
is fixed yet. He will be fixed before he leaves if we can get
6:12
him on the surgery schedule, or you would just bring him back to have
6:15
him have his surgery, depending on if we can get him on the schedule
6:19
within those first few days or not. But he is, like I said,
6:24
a little bashful. He's super sweet. He loves a good walk.
6:29
He definitely likes to play a little bit, but you just got to let
6:31
him warm up to you for a little bit first. But he's a really,
6:34
really sweet dog. And like I said, he is around fifty four
6:38
pounds and he just needs to go home. He's so sweet. He's also
6:42
my doggy diplomat of this week er until how long I gotta get him to
6:47
get adopted, So hopefully this will help him. Hopefully you're right again.
6:51
We're talking with Hannah Gardner with this week's adopt me please spend the week.
6:55
Copper is our dog that we're looking for this week, and I don't want
6:57
to get our dogs mixed up. But I gotta tell you, Hannah,
6:59
you had the cutest pictures of one of your pets there at the shelter,
7:02
Glaze posted on the Facebook page. I was looking at that yesterday. Now
7:06
Glaze has a very disgusted look on her face because as of yesterday, Glaze.
7:13
I don't know if Glaze posted this or not, but Glaze tells us
7:16
that you're completely out, or at least you were of wet dog food.
7:19
Is that true, Yes, so we don't. I know that we were
7:25
running out rather quickly there. We were using a good bit of it,
7:30
and I know that we need a good bit of it now. We are
7:33
pretty much out. I think I saw maybe like a few yesterday, but
7:36
that's not enough for really anything. So of course we could always use wet
7:42
food, any brand of wet food. It can be any brand, any
7:46
size, any kind. But well, we'll take it off. And of
7:49
course always blankets and sheets are needed. Yes, blanket's sheets. We always
7:54
said we can hit that every week because I always ask you about the things
7:56
that are needed. Blankets, sheets, anything like that. Can it can
8:00
be taken. What big events do you have coming up? Because I was
8:03
looking on your Facebook page. You've got I know, tucks and Tails were
8:07
already starting to talk about that. That's not for a couple of months,
8:09
but the plans are being made for that already. And there's a little bit
8:13
of information available on your social media about that, any other anywhere you're going
8:18
to be out and about this weekend or any of the big events coming up.
8:20
Nothing this weekend that I know of at the moment. I know that,
8:26
like you said, Texas and Tails is coming up, so everybody check
8:31
that out, gets your tickets. It's definitely going to be worth it.
8:35
Absolutely. How's a cat situation up here at the shelter. Our cat situation
8:41
is all right right now. I know that we're preparing for kitten season.
8:45
It should be really within the next month or two. Kitten season usually hits,
8:52
so we're preparing for that, and we of course could always use the
8:56
kitten chow and then the kitten formulas and stuff like that that I know that
9:01
we have a good fit and preference for it all. But we definitely are
9:05
coming up on that and we will be full. I'm sure we usually are.
9:09
Every year. We get so full that we have our nursery full,
9:13
all of our fosters have cats and kittens, and then our cattery is always
9:16
full as well. So we will see how this year goes, and we
9:20
hope that it all goes all right. Hannah, as always, I appreciate
9:24
you being here. You better get back and take care of those dogs that
9:26
we hear in the background. Again, those aren't sheltered dogs. Those are
9:28
handah dogs. Is that right? Those are handah dogs? All right,
9:33
go take care of we'll talk again soon we'll actually talk to you next week.
9:35
Thanks a lot, Hannah, Thank you again. It's Hannah Gardener from
9:39
the Connell and Charleston New Main Association with this week's Adopt Me Please Pet of
9:43
the Week. Copper is our dog, Copper, not fixed yet but will
9:46
be. Before you take Copper home. Copper will be fixed, she is.
9:50
I'm sorry. He is micro chipped and vaccinated and ready to go once
9:56
they get the fixing part. Taking care of Copper was so rendered to the
10:00
shelter. We really exactly don't know why. It looks like that. Copper
10:05
is a dog that does prefer females to males, and very friendly, but
10:09
can also be a little bit shy. Probably better with older kids that understand
10:13
that you just kind of got to go slow with some of these dogs.
10:16
But Hannah tells me that Copper loves to be outdoors, loves to play,
10:20
does well on a leash, about fifty four pounds or so. Just an
10:24
absolutely beautiful dog. And again, I've got Copper's picture posted on Dave Alan
10:28
Radio on Facebook and at Dave A seventy of the Dave Allen Show on x
10:33
The artist formally known as Twitter. So let's go get copper in a home
10:37
and help them out with what they need as far as their wet food goes.
10:39
Again, I would just taken aback by the When I was looking at
10:43
the social media pages of the Canal Charles Humane Association, this particular dog Glaze
10:46
and the look on Glaze's face discussed the look saying hey, get me some
10:50
food up here, all right? They need some stuff up there at the

15:07
or one of the new members of the Way because here's the thing, you
15:09
know, I try to share everything that you guys do on my on my
15:13
social media and Dave Island Radio. And so I scrolled on the other night
15:16
and I saw that you had one of the pictures posted up a new player.
15:18
Oh, here's a new player. Okay, under that, here's a
15:20
new player. Here's another player. By the time I was on it like
15:24
like ten different texts or ten different posts, I should say from all of
15:26
the different players. You told me coming in here, Stephanie, you said,
15:31
we got ourselves a team this year. We do, We really do.
15:33
We've got a couple of returning players from last year, which were extremely
15:37
excited about. And then we were able to invite some other folks with some
15:41
great backgrounds, some great college history, some great overseas experiences. And then
15:46
Keishan has his own story to tell today. We're really excited. I want
15:50
to hear this story. Keishean, tell us your story. Uh, you
15:52
know, small kid, small town from winne Haven. You know, went
15:56
to South Carolina for my first four years, played with Frank. I had
16:00
a number on the four years. You know, the team was good.
16:03
I had a pretty good four years. Did a couple of NBA drafts throughout
16:07
those two years, but decided to do one more year to get my degree.
16:11
You know, so that was something that was big for me. I'm
16:14
actually first generation first person to get my degree. So what was your degree
16:18
in general studies? Okay, that's awesome, thank you. So I finished
16:22
my last year at University of South Florida, came from University of South Florida
16:26
to the G League. I ended up getting drafted in the G League.
16:30
Some things happened, you know that I had no control over. Now I'm
16:34
here and we're working by the way back up, So what do you think
16:37
about this style of basketball in this league? I think it's very similar to
16:41
the league, you know, very very fast paced, you know, very
16:45
a lot of transition game. You know, a lot of just skilled in
16:48
it. So I think it's very similar to the pros. Yeah, I
16:52
was looking at some of the lists of players that you had, Stephanie,
16:53
and you've got Luke Frampton, who is certainly no stranger to this area.
16:57
Was a standout at POKA. So get a little local flavor in their team.
17:00
We do, we do. We were excited to bring him back.
17:03
So let's talk about the season now. When does the season start. March
17:10
eighth. Friday is our home game opener. It's going to be exciting.
17:14
It's down at the campus of West Virginia State University and exciting. New is
17:18
one of our sponsors. Michael Carey Law Firm has sponsored that game so that
17:22
all kids will get in free to that game. So bring everybody you can,
17:26
all the kids, they'll be in. They'll be able to get a
17:29
mission for free. And it's our first game. We've got some people coming
17:32
from Huntington and all over the state. Social media when we put it up
17:33
that was that was the TBL media day, so that's why you got all
17:37
the tag pictures of everybody and all the fun stuff. So we blew it
17:41
up. We've got a lot of people interacting with us and they're excited coming
17:45
too the game next Friday for Shure and again hats off to Michael Carey.
17:48
It's any law for sponsor for what's the age on that, like twelve and
17:51
under maybe or an age your student all the way up through senior high school.
17:55
Okay, come on, we want everybody. We need everybody to come
17:56
and see this team, all right, and that's what that's what a big
18:00
part of the success of your first season there, I think was getting the
18:03
kids involved in getting all these I'm not sure what they call him now.
18:06
It was called Buddy League when I when I was a kid. But do
18:07
you know these all the all the little kids and getting all the all them
18:11
in there as well, that's a big part of it. Absolutely, Absolutely
18:14
we want them to see we've got We've got some guys that can dunk this
18:15
year, so there'll be some entertainment on the court. That's a little pointing
18:21
in him, our resident dunker. I did, I did, wait,
18:25
wait till you see this? And then and like I said, a couple
18:27
of guys that were here last year and since then one or two of them
18:30
have gone overseas and played, so that's really exciting. And then as you
18:34
said, Luke Frampton, he you know, left Western Kentucky and now he's
18:38
here as a local, as a local guy. He has his own fan
18:41
base that's coming. So that's exciting that he gets to play in this league.
18:45
For us, we're looking forward to a Dave Allen showing five of the
18:47
Life Brought to You part by Morgan to Morgan America's launch of America's largest injury
18:51
law firm. He shall. Let's go back to you for a couple of
18:53
moments. What age did you fall in love with a game of basketball?
18:56
Born him with a basketball in your hand or what? You know? I
19:00
was into a lot of sports growing up. You know, basketball wasn't always
19:03
my first. You know, I was very big on football, you know,
19:07
but around around middle school, the girls started kicking in, you know,
19:12
and didn't balance out that well. So you know, I had to
19:15
pick, and I chose basketball, you know, for safer reasons, health
19:18
reasons. So and I just stuck with a sense. Who were some of
19:22
your idols growing up? Who were the people that you look to, and
19:25
so that's who I want to be. Some people that I looked up to
19:26
were guys like Tracy McGrady. Those are guys that's from my whole town.
19:30
So he was like one one of the only guys that you know, I
19:33
really kind of like wanted out of my game ass playing back home. He
19:37
was a great player. He made fantastic fantastic Now, see what time frame
19:41
were we talking that he played, because I remember remember him, but I
19:45
don't remember the exact years. But but he was a fantastic player in the
19:48
league. In the nineties league early two thousands, Yeah, he was,
19:51
that was and that was really a great time for basketball too. I mean,
19:55
I mean, you know, if you think about it, and I'm
19:57
not I'm not the basket basketball expert, but if you think about the time
20:00
frame from the eighties up until, as you said, in the nineties,
20:03
been some phenomenal basketball in the night and really it continues today because the association
20:07
is doing pretty well for itself right now. Is that your ultimate gold you
20:11
want to get back to. Notice how quickly he said goal. You know,
20:17
this league is definitely the reason why I came here, you know,
20:19
because I heard all the resources they can help for me and how the popular
20:23
of the league is. So you know, I'm looking forward to plan and
20:26
getting back to where I was at. And we talked to Stephanie in the
20:30
past about what a what a great facility that it is there in the campus
20:33
of West Virginia State course, we just had the par of our shoot out
20:36
there last month and thirty two teams boys and girls that came and took over
20:41
the place for four big days. That's a great facility. I mean,
20:44
it really really is. Absolutely it's amazing. So it almost makes you feel
20:47
like you're in the league. Yeah, it is. And that's one of
20:49
the great things about that facility, you know, whether it's this league or
20:52
as I said, any of the other things that go on there Stephanie,
20:55
is there's to use the cliche, there's not a bad seat in the house,
20:59
in the place, not at all, not at all. In one
21:00
of the things that we're excited about is Keishawn mentioned this is a great resource
21:06
the TBL for sure. I mean the production team that we have and the
21:10
production team that we have at State from our stats in our film. I
21:14
mean, that's what's building the resume. Remember TBL as a showcase league,
21:18
So that's what we're doing, building resumes so that guys can achieve their goal
21:22
like Keishawn's goals. Last time we had you and sure we had the coach
21:23
of the team. How's he doing. Is he's still doing all right?
21:26
He's doing well. We're gonna have a little scrimmage this evening just to get
21:29
our feet underneath of us and play another team for the first time. Not
21:33
anything that's opened, you know, to public or anything like that, but
21:36
we're gonna do that so we can put some final touches on a few things.
21:38
We do have him meet the team next Tuesday night, so we're going
21:42
to be at Buffalo Wild Wings in Nitro. We will be there at seven
21:47
o'clock and everybody will be coming out there to meet the team, see the
21:49
guys, get some autographs. We're giving away some shirts and some tickets and
21:52
some fun things, just a couple of days before our home opener. That's
21:56
great. And again the community involvement, Stephanie with this, with this league,
22:00
I mean coming out to events like that, but just the support in
22:03
the community. But you guys also believe in giving back to the community.
22:07
I've seen you out at about it several several different events. That's a big
22:10
part of it. We are the guys are phenomen This is a phenomenal group
22:14
of guys. I mean genuine, wholehearted in back in their own hometowns.
22:18
They work with kids, and they run camps and they do things. These
22:22
are athlete mentors. So it's not just about the basketball, it's about everything
22:26
else that you know they could reach out to in touch. I've got them
22:27
actually busy. We're going out this weekend. We're going to be working on
22:30
the fields at the soccer fields at Shawnee on Saturday and Sunday, and then
22:34
Monday, I've got a couple of them going to another after school program to
22:38
work with a couple of people at a third base. So we're doing that
22:41
and then the then the meet the team, and then they get a day
22:42
to rest before one very aim one day. You get one day Thursday.
22:48
That's it. She's hardcore, isn't she. When you go out the Keishaw,
22:51
when you go ahead and you talk to these young kids, what do
22:55
you tell them? You tell them some of your story? Do you tell
22:57
them? You know, the stand, work hard, do your homework,
23:00
take your vitamin, stay in school, you know that kind of thing.
23:03
What is your message to young kids? Well, you know, I feel
23:04
like, you know, everybody has a different story, you know, so
23:07
I try not to really give them my story. Just try to give them
23:11
positive advice. You know. Also tell them to know that write your own
23:15
story. You know, everybody has their own story. So my main thing
23:17
is write your own story. But some some things you also have to follow
23:21
in line to make sure your story gets the where it needs to go.
23:23
So just try to keep them on a good level headspace and just all positive
23:26
news and kids today have so many other things in their life. Video games,
23:33
yeah, and so many and social media, you know, I mean,
23:37
it's all about social media with it with young people today. It's all
23:41
about likes and clicks and things of that nature, something that maybe the athlete
23:45
of the nineteen nineties or the two thousands, even through the mid two thousands
23:51
didn't have to worry about, you know. And social media plays a part,
23:53
you know, And I feel like in my generation a little bit,
23:56
you know, you know, you can you can get caught up in social
23:59
media, and that's that's something you want. You don't want to do a
24:02
lot. So me personally, I took a year off social media, as
24:06
probably Marsh will be my year going on. A year off social media really
24:10
Instagram, twel you know, and it's been more peaceful for me that way.
24:12
And I feel like a lot of people should try that, you know,
24:15
try I know people that have given it up for lent and then they
24:18
didn't go back to it. So one of my good buddies did that a
24:22
couple of years ago, and he said, you know what, I never
24:23
went back to Facebook, Instagram. I just totally gave it up, totally
24:27
gave it up. Important dates we need to remember for the grim mis Stephanie.
24:32
Meet the team for certain, that's going to be coming up next Tuesday,
24:37
So meet the team, come out and see us as start Buffalo Wild
24:40
Wings in Nitro. So we're excited about that. And then our first home
24:44
opening game is going to be next Friday at seven o'clock campus of West Virginia
24:48
State University. Bring the kiddos, they're all free compliments of Michael Carey's law
24:52
firm. So those are our biggest dates there. And so next week when
24:56
you have that opening, what kind of festivities do we have for opening Day?
25:00
Because I know it's you know, opening day in Indie sports, not
25:02
just another game. So what kind of stuff we get going on. We're
25:03
excited. We've got a lot of kids coming. We've got some AAU teams
25:07
coming that are going to be reaching out to the players. Really, this
25:10
one is about the players meeting the kids before the game, during halftime,
25:15
coming out, shooting a little bit with them, after the game, meeting
25:18
up with the kids. Also, this is all about the players this time,
25:21
investing in the kids. We've got. We've got a little dance crew
25:25
coming in. We've got some little babies that are going to be coming in
25:26
at halftime show and they're going to be doing some dance and things like that,
25:30
so we're excited for that. This one is all about the kids,
25:33
though, Dave absolutely absolutely talk about merchandise. I mean, I heard you
25:37
mentioned that you had a team store stuff like that. People can buy the
25:40
ground because I love the logo. I think the logos are just absolutely beautiful.
25:44
I love it. So what kind of stuff have you got there?
25:47
So our website actually is being updated as we speak. I saw a couple
25:52
of things updated on there this morning and now on our socials, so you
25:56
can find us on Instagram and on Facebook, but on our socials we have
26:00
our team's store up and running. So last year I got a lot of
26:03
requests. I've got a baby, they need a onesie. The baby doesn't
26:04
have anything to wear, so now you can get something for the baby,
26:07
something for the females, something for the kids, something for the guys.
26:11
So there's all kinds of T shirts and sweatshirts and things that are gonna be
26:14
on there. We're gonna be keep adding on there as well. Locally.
26:17
We have some T shirts, will be having those available at the first game
26:21
and at the meet the team next week, so you can get something right
26:22
away so you could support us next Friday. It's keyshean to tell you.
26:26
It's all about the gear man, right, You got to you gotta have
26:29

along with the lovely Kelly. How are you ladies great? How are you?
30:44
Thank you for having us, Thank you for thank you for being here.
30:47
You don't had on Chris Lawrence yesterday, but I'd much rather talk to
30:49
you two about this. Chris is actually up there, I think in Morgantown
30:53
right now. Big two days in Morgantown, girls, talk about it.
30:59
It's going to be a huge two days. This is our twenty second annual
31:02
West Virginia Fishing, Hunting, Outdoor Sports Show and it's everything that's in the
31:07
title and more anything outdoors guns, ammos, hunting supplies, camouflage, tractors,
31:15
boats, or tree you name it. And a lot goes into putting
31:21
this show together. Rachelle and Kelly talk about to what goes into putting this
31:26
show on. So it is a year long production. Really, we deal
31:33
with vendors all year longs preparing for this two day show. It is very
31:37
time consuming but very rewarding. Our vendors are some of the best vendors from
31:42
around the country, so we're just excited for everybody to come out and meet
31:47
them. And over one hundred thousand square feet is that right? It is
31:52
it's over one hundred thousand square feet. We have over two hundred vendor booths
31:57
with around one hundred and sixty or so individual vendors themselves. And there is
32:04
something I mean, you know again to use the advertising cliches Chris and I
32:07
talked about you yesterday, Rachelle and Kelly, there is something for everybody there,
32:12
whether you are into the fishing, the hunting, and some people just
32:15
like to hang out in the outdoors or not. They don't really necessarily want
32:19
to go after the animals, they just like to hang out in the outdoors.
32:22
You get something for them too. Absolutely, we have whitewater rafting here.
32:25
We have everything outdoors, hiking supplies. This is not just for fishing
32:31
and hunting. This is anything that you can think of outdoors. We have
32:36
e bikes, We have all kinds of things that everybody just needs to come
32:38
out and see because there is literally something for everyone. And I was looking
32:44
at your at your information online and by the way, I'm going to put
32:46
the entire sky I've got. I've had information on all of our social media
32:50
about this, but also I'm going to have something on my particular I'm a
32:53
page day VLID Radio with the actual schedule. Here. You got Garrett Green
32:59
who is going to be their courtesy of Myers r V as a special guest
33:02
from noon to two signing some autographs. That's a pretty big deal. Yes,
33:07
he'll be here on Sunday from noon to two taking pictures, signing autographs
33:12
and you can bring your own stuff if you want him to sign, or
33:15
we'll have some stuff on site as well. If you forgot your home,
33:17
that will be nice enough to give. And one of the things that's always
33:22
a big hit with these things too, is is the seminars that you have.
33:25
I know we have our event in Charleston. That's always a big deal
33:30
is people like to come out and they like to learn from the experts,
33:32
and you've got a lot of that going on too. Absolutely. We have,
33:37
of course, we have Chris Lawrence Live from nine to noon tomorrow here,
33:40
so if you're interested in seeing how radio works, you're more than welcome
33:45
to come in at ten and sit down and watch Chris do his thing at
33:46
ten o'clock from to noon. And then right after that we have fly Fishing
33:52

33:55

34:00
how to get Deer lower Gears in with Smoky and then we have Reptiles Live
34:08
with the Zoologies owned Science Center telling us all about reptiles in West Virginia and
34:14
all around the world. Really, he has a ton of reptiles. I
34:17
want to come see those. Then we have Kenny Davis with Whitetail Frenzy.
34:22
We have wild game cooking with the Hunt Chef and that's going to round us
34:24
out on Saturday. On Sunday we have training and using shed dogs with the
34:29
Long Spur tracking and outfitting. We have fast and basics with Bugsy. He's
34:34
one of the greatest fishermen, so you'll want to come learn from him.
34:37
And then we kind of end our day with some kids things with Laurel Fork
34:40
falconry and the hawks and falcons, sabring, and a lightsaber show with the
34:45
Outer Rim Praxium Lightsaber School. Now I'm going to need to hear more about
34:47
this lightsaber show. You know, it's funny the first year we did this,
34:52
this will be the third year for them, and the first year we
34:55
brought it in for the kids. But I don't know, I feel like
34:59
the as we get into it more than the kids even do. And I
35:04
want to go ahead and get the admission price out there. It's twelve dollars
35:06
for adults and killed children six to twelve it is five dollars. And if
35:10
you're a veteran and I love this, you're letting veterans in six dollars all
35:14
day. Just have your proof of service to be able to get into that.
35:16
And a lot of giveaways too. I mean, you got a ton
35:20

35:25

35:30
in prizes we'll give away the first there's two entrances. The first fifty people
35:35

35:39
every hour we'll give away prizes. And then at the end of the show
35:44
we'll give away our four grand prizes, which you mentioned. We have a
35:46
SSR seventy youth dirt bike, we have a fishing kayak. We have a
35:52
guided bare bait hunt for two in Crystal Maine courtesy of Backboond Mountain Guide Service
35:59
and then valued it over ten thousand dollars a weekend for two at Dream Mountain
36:02
Ranch which consists of several hunts, all of your meat, processing, your
36:07
lodging, your meals and everything. So a lot of fun stuff to be
36:12
one. Exactly before we let you go, I want to talk about the
36:14
most important thing to people like myself, and that is the food. There's
36:17
always great food at these events. Talk about the food, always great food.
36:23
I think we get the most excited when the food vendors come in and
36:27
want to come in. We obviously will have our pickle guy. We get
36:30
so many calls going is the pickle man going to be there? Yes,
36:34
he is bringing his pickles. He has two boots and two different areas of
36:37
our show. We have some other great food. We have raw honey coming
36:42
up from southern West Virginia. We have all kinds of jerky, We have

have gourmet popcorns. I mean, everything that you can think of is going
36:57
to be here. It's going to be a lot of fun. And again
37:00
it's happening this weekend. And got a great facility to have it in there.
37:04
I mean, I've been up here in the last couple of years.
37:06
The Ruby Community Center at Myland Park over one hundred thousand square feet. Again,
37:10
We've got a lot of information available out there, and I'll repeat a
37:15
little bit of that a little bit later on. I know you girls got

to get back to work because you've got a lot of stuff going on there.
37:19

38:58
got some stuff I gotta get to including Over in Putnam County, the annual
39:02
Taste and Talent event is going to be going on. Kelly Steele is from
39:07
the Putnam County Convention and Visitors Bureau and she will join us next for back
39:12

39:16
Family Businesses. Eric Jtar Family Businesses have been creating jobs in West Virginia since
39:22
nineteen ninety seven. Illegals flooding in thousands and thousands more every single day.
39:28
But what if these non citizens could also vote in our elections. It's already
39:32
happening in blue cities across America. What if a liberal judge won't force it
39:37
here? In West Virginia, legislators are proposing a constitutional change ensuring that only
39:43
citizens can vote, but it needs two thirds to get on the ballot.
39:46
Tell your legislators pass only citizen voting paid for by Americans for citizen voting.

I mean you said it. It's our month long celebration of food and the
42:53
arts in Putnam County. So we love to eat and we love to support
43:00
our arts community. So that's that's really what it's all about in a nutshell.
43:05
So what will people find that they can Again, this is a month
43:07
long event that just kicks off today. What exactly do people do as part
43:12
of this? Well, they eat, So that's that's a given what I
43:15
like to do. Yeah, So if you go to Taste and Talents dot
43:20
com or go to visit Putnam w B and click on Tastes and Talents whatever
43:23
whatever it takes to get you there, you can find a mobile path that

you can access and it will give you you can kind of earn points and

so as you visit our different locally owned restaurants all throughout the county. You
43:36
can check in and you can earn some Putinham County swags. Some of the
43:38
restaurants offer specials like special menu items only for March. Other restaurants offer discounts,
43:45
so you can access all of that on the pass. And then we
43:47
also make sure that you know about any food or arts related events throughout the
43:53
county. So there are a list of related tastes and talents events on our
44:00
events calendar on that page that you can find. So our library is a
44:04
great partner. They offer some special food related and arts related events throughout the
44:09
month, and there's live music at different restaurants. You can find all of
44:13

44:23
and Thoughts Studio or the Pottery Place, two places that are kind of arts
44:29
based businesses right in Putnam County, and you can check in at those.

44:37
an Irish dance themed night or program, so you can go and learn learn
44:45
to dance a jig, I guess, so that'll be really fun. Yeah,
44:49

available there too, And Mitch and and I know you get in trouble sometimes
44:57

of the restaurants that are involved in this. God, there's everything from Thai
45:05

48:50
I find it highly ironic that West Virginia promotes drinking cultures like beer,
48:53
moonshine, et cetera, while simultaneously saying the reason cannabis can't be legalized is
48:59
that West Virginia the drug problem. So why the promotion and celebration of alcohol
49:04
when it is by all measurements more deadly end destruction destructive, I should say,
49:08
than cannabis. Tex says, did the ten questions formatt? Has it
49:13
been discontinued? Well, you know that was part of the Friday funhouse thing
49:15
and I was bringing in a different guest host from you know, every Friday,
49:20

49:23
been almost four years since I've been doing this. May tour the end of
