0:43
Speaker 1: we'll be at Lynch's pregaming with Michelobultra from six to eight,
0:48

0:55
Speaker 1: So if you're looking for a lot of energy, a
0:57
Speaker 1: great place to watch the game, you can join us
0:59
Speaker 1: there with Michel obol And.
1:00
Speaker 3: Now we're in the knockout rounds. Man, it means everything,
1:03
Speaker 3: so you lose, you go home. That's what's going on?
1:05
Speaker 4: Man, I don't want us to go home. We're America.
1:08
Speaker 4: We're supposed to be the winners.
1:10
Speaker 2: And that's the thing with soccer.
1:11
Speaker 3: We're used to kind of being that team to go, well,
1:14
Speaker 3: you know, we're America and it's soccer.
1:17
Speaker 2: So if we do okay, it's okay.
1:19
Speaker 3: But now we understand it's like your college football team
1:22
Speaker 3: losing and you can't believe it because there are people
1:25
Speaker 3: that just are incensed that their team has lost. I
1:27
Speaker 3: got a friend who grew up in Cameroon. It's Cameroonian
1:30
Speaker 3: and when they lost, like their first round a few
1:33
Speaker 3: years ago, he was like, they shouldn't be allowed back
1:35
Speaker 3: in this country. I mean, he's like, that is serious
1:38
Speaker 3: stuff to them. These people are crazy. I was at
1:40
Speaker 3: Lynches on Saturday. It was the England game against Panama
1:46
Speaker 3: and I met people from England that had flown here
1:49
Speaker 3: and we're just traveling to different places.
1:51
Speaker 1: I met people from Scotland. It was some very tall
1:55
Speaker 1: Swedish people. It's amazing all I can't believe how tall
1:59
Speaker 1: the Swedes are. I'm like, we're midgets here, we're little people.
2:04
Speaker 1: My apologies.
2:06
Speaker 2: Let's get make these three things. See what else is
2:08
Speaker 2: going on in the world.
2:09
Speaker 5: Okay, Florida Highway Patrol is in the running for having
2:13
Speaker 5: the best cruiser photo. This is a thing that all
2:16
Speaker 5: of the different highway patrols can apply to. They send
2:19
Speaker 5: in just what their car looks like in a beautiful
2:22
Speaker 5: like sunset, or if it's in a field or something
2:24
Speaker 5: that feels very.
2:27
Speaker 4: Whatever state they're from, it feels like they're state.
2:29
Speaker 5: Well, Georgia's in the running too, and they've got a
2:31
Speaker 5: horse in their picture, so at first you might think, well,
2:34
Speaker 5: they have a horse and our cruisers on a bridge
2:38
Speaker 5: with a sunset, but their looks like AI. So I'm
2:41
Speaker 5: pretty sure we've got a pretty good chance to win.
2:43
Speaker 5: All good Tonight the Mega Millions, the drawing is happening
2:46
Speaker 5: five hundred and eleven million dollars, So I think we
2:50
Speaker 5: need to do an office pool maybe so we can
2:53
Speaker 5: have a chance.
2:53
Speaker 1: I already bought my ticket. I would encourage people not
2:55
Speaker 1: to buy theirs. I feel like I've already got the
2:57
Speaker 1: winning numbers.
2:58
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I'll hold off.
3:01
Speaker 5: This weekend, there was an eight foot hammerhead shark that
3:06
Speaker 5: washed up on Atlantic Beach.
3:07
Speaker 4: This is crazy. The poor thing was injured.
3:10
Speaker 5: It looked like it got hit by a boat and
3:12
Speaker 5: it took an excavator crew to remove it, but they
3:15
Speaker 5: ended up being able to get it off of the
3:16
Speaker 5: shore wild right here on our own beaches.
3:19
Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting about that Jacksonville off the old
3:22
Speaker 1: pier before it was destroyed by a hurricane. We rebuilt it,
3:25
Speaker 1: rebuilt it again. We had the world record hammerhead was
3:29
Speaker 1: caught off the Jacksonville Beach pier and then it was
3:31
Speaker 1: probably like fifteen years ago it was beaten by Australia.
3:34
Speaker 4: Wow, it's crazy. That's three things you need to know.
3:38
Speaker 3: And the big show we go down to the Tampa area. Well,
3:42
Speaker 3: the red and blue emergency lights in the suv were
3:44
Speaker 3: activated and someoney got pulled over.
3:49
Speaker 2: Two things wrong with that statement.
3:52
Speaker 3: One, the guy who activated the emergency lights in his
3:55
Speaker 3: suv not a police officer.
3:57
Speaker 1: Oh mah, well that's fun.
3:58
Speaker 3: And the other thing, the guy he pulled over was
4:01
Speaker 3: a police officer. Oops, undercover, you are going to jail.
4:09
Speaker 2: Today.
4:10
Speaker 1: We're talking about you know, America's two hundred and fiftieth
4:13
Speaker 1: birthday is this Saturday. What makes us proud to be
4:16
Speaker 1: an American? You can call us three eight eight thirty
4:18
Speaker 1: six ninety nine or leave us a talkback.
4:20
Speaker 4: Hey, it's Jean Marie Chumley's wife.
4:23
Speaker 1: I love America because we drink beer, we eat chicken wings,
4:27
Speaker 1: and we invented NASCAR. Number three forever ravetail or praivail
4:32
Speaker 1: gojen Oh, that's my watch. She does love NASCAR. Watching
4:35
Speaker 1: NASCAR with hers kind of like watching football with Froggy.
4:39
Speaker 1: She's screaming at the TV Big Dale or in hardfare
4:42
Speaker 1: rest his soul. But you know, if you think about it,
4:44
Speaker 1: we did invent NASCAR, right, and it kind of started
4:48
Speaker 1: with bootleg and liquor during prohibition and look what it's
4:51
Speaker 1: morphed into. And Nascar is a great sport. Go fast,
4:54
Speaker 1: turn left, that is great.
4:55
Speaker 3: So we would love to hear from you whatever it is,
4:57
Speaker 3: it can be, whatever it is that makes you.
5:00
Speaker 1: There's so many things to be proud of in this country,
5:03
Speaker 1: and you know, two hundred and fifty years, look how
5:05
Speaker 1: much we've done.
5:06
Speaker 3: And we're being reminded of it when all the people,
5:08
Speaker 3: the people come over here and tell us how great
5:10
Speaker 3: our country is. When you know you've got half of
5:13
Speaker 3: the people in this country complaining about how great.
5:16
Speaker 1: People are talking about not flying the flag on the
5:18
Speaker 1: fourth of July. I've got a big giant flag and
5:21
Speaker 1: it gets awfully close to the ground, but I keep
5:23
Speaker 1: it off the ground. I think it's serious. Some people
5:24
Speaker 1: are talking about flying the flag upside down?
5:26
Speaker 4: What this is?
5:27
Speaker 2: America? Come on, this will.
5:28
Speaker 4: Makes me mad.
5:29
Speaker 1: You're an incredible country, Am I wrong?
5:31
Speaker 5: We are an incredible country, and I think that until
5:34
Speaker 5: you learn more about what other countries are like, truly like,
5:38
Speaker 5: and the limitations they have. You can say America sucks
5:42
Speaker 5: all you want, but when people come over here them,
5:45
Speaker 5: they're like, Wow, I can post on social media whatever
5:47
Speaker 5: I want, I can say whatever I want. Yeah, I
5:49
Speaker 5: can protect my family however I want.
5:52
Speaker 4: To a point. I mean, what's not to love?
5:54
Speaker 1: And it's little things. My daughter's in France right now
5:57
Speaker 1: and she's upset because her phone doesn't work very well
6:00
Speaker 1: and the internet shotting, and I was like, yeah, they
6:02
Speaker 1: don't have a five G tower every quarter of a
6:04
Speaker 1: mile in France.
6:05
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we have them here and they're decorated to
6:07
Speaker 4: look like Teresa.
6:07
Speaker 2: See how about that? Take that? There you go, that's
6:11
Speaker 2: getting the Megan's.
6:11
Speaker 3: Music city man, and we'd love to hear from you.
6:13
Speaker 3: I'm sorry nine oh four to three at eight thirty
6:15
Speaker 3: six ninety nine, the.
6:16
Speaker 4: US men's soccer team.
6:18
Speaker 5: The coaches have banded together to try to ask Luke Combs,
6:21
Speaker 5: Landy Wilson, and Ella Langley.
6:23
Speaker 4: To come to a game.
6:25
Speaker 5: But really what they want is for those three artists
6:28
Speaker 5: to come perform for the coaches, because I guess the
6:30
Speaker 5: coaches are getting together and playing country music every night
6:33
Speaker 5: before their games, so they want our stars to join them.
6:36
Speaker 1: You know what, if it brings luck to the team,
6:38
Speaker 1: bring it on.
6:39
Speaker 4: I'm on, yeah, I agree.
6:41
Speaker 5: Rhett Atkins has just been invited to join the Grand
6:44
Speaker 5: Old Opry. This is one of those agens Aikins. I'm sorry,
6:48
Speaker 5: I said Akins, Yes, Akins.
6:50
Speaker 4: I'm a little dyslexic.
6:51
Speaker 5: But Rhett is one of those artists that you would
6:53
Speaker 5: think is already in the Grand Old Opry. There's a
6:55
Speaker 5: lot of really iconic people that they just they're not
6:59
Speaker 5: in it.
6:59
Speaker 4: They've never invited.
7:00
Speaker 3: And the thing is sometimes is that sometimes if they
7:03
Speaker 3: were kind of quietly invited, there was like, I can't
7:05
Speaker 3: make it. You have to be up there once a month,
7:06
Speaker 3: you have to be able to perform at the opera
7:08
Speaker 3: a certain amount of time, and some people just go,
7:11
Speaker 3: I just don't make that trip up there and whatever,
7:13
Speaker 3: and maybe I shouldn't, But that's nice that he got invited.
7:15
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, it is really awesome.
7:16
Speaker 5: And if you're a Garth Brooks fan, he's teasing on
7:19
Speaker 5: his website countdown Clock. People are thinking this could be
7:22
Speaker 5: a tour announcement, maybe another limited edition box set.

9:18
Speaker 1: also had some Irish folk music.
9:21
Speaker 2: Influence.
9:21
Speaker 1: You know, that's another great thing about America is we've
9:24
Speaker 1: got a lot of great immigrants that have brought some
9:26
Speaker 1: neat culture to exactly country music.
9:29
Speaker 2: That's a great one. The melting pot.
9:31
Speaker 3: I mean some of that stuff that came from the Appalachians,
9:33
Speaker 3: and they came from Irish, a lot of those Irish
9:36
Speaker 3: songs and the Irish jigs they used to do and stuff,
9:38
Speaker 3: and then ended up morphing with some more folk music
9:41
Speaker 3: and the next thing you know, you've got country music
9:44
Speaker 3: and here we are. And it also went with some
9:46
Speaker 3: of the blues that Jimmy Rodgers did the blues, and
9:50
Speaker 3: so you put the bluesy part together with the Appalachian country,
9:54
Speaker 3: and then is that's country music as we still know it.
9:57
Speaker 1: You know, this is what I love about John He's
9:59
Speaker 1: the so of music music history. It's incredible.

Speaker 3: Or do you take the First Coast Expressway? It all
13:27
Speaker 3: over on the west side in Clay County.
13:28
Speaker 1: You know, I don't get out that way often. I've
13:31
Speaker 1: only taken a piece of that new highway the Duval
13:33
Speaker 1: County side, but I think it now goes through Clay
13:36
Speaker 1: County and connects to the Shans for it.
13:38
Speaker 3: They just opened that new three mile portion that's going
13:41
Speaker 3: to take you from US seventeen to the base of
13:43
Speaker 3: the Shans.
13:44
Speaker 2: I think they are supposed to have opened that yesterday.
13:46
Speaker 4: So that's awesome.
13:47
Speaker 5: It's gonna be so convenient for our friends who have
13:49
Speaker 5: to go over the Shans right, and then more.
13:51
Speaker 3: Sooner or later when they build the new Shans and
13:53
Speaker 3: then that's going to connect to ninety five.
13:55
Speaker 2: So we're going to have this cut through on the backside.
