Speaker 4 (00:43):
It'd be nice if.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
We could, you know, really take a bunch of wins
into the All Star break next week. Hey, Bethany, this
story caught my attention. A ten year old, three teens,
and a thirty two year old man arrested in connection
to an arm robbery in northwest Baltimore.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
Did you hear about this?

Speaker 3 (01:02):
So a group of children, including a ten year old,
were arrested along with a thirty two year old man
over the weekend in connection with an armed robbery. Officers
were called Saturday evening around I think nine o'clockish for
a report of an armed robbery at a bus stop

(01:23):
in the eleven hundred block of East Northern Parkway. The
victim told officers he was waiting at the bus stop
when four youths jump kids, jumped out of a car
and approached him, demanding his property, probably his phone.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
Yeah right, wow, So the officers.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
They put the fox trot up in the air, the
helicopter and they find the car that the guy described
they chased him.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
Five people jump out of this car.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
They arrest all of them, and a ten year old
I mean it was and a fourteen year old's it's crazy,
two thirteen year old girls, fourteen year old boy, and
this thirty two year old man.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
I have so many questions, like what is the connection
between the man and the children?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Is that like a father? I don't know, but that
day should be. I mean, like how.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Does he know them? I have questions about that. Also,
I feel like a ten year old doesn't really need
to be arrested and needs help.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Yeah, so to the thirteen and the fourteen year.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Old, yeah, I mean, well, I don't know, when do
you start to be that age you start to know
right from raw?

Speaker 4 (02:34):
I think, I mean, I don't at ten.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
You know you're not supposed to be holding a gun
up and telling people to give you your wallet and your.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
But if you have a thirty two year old that
potentially is telling you to do that. Oh god, you
know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (02:46):

Riley Green called out Ella Langley. Listen to this story.
We just played Ella with her new number one, so
things are going well professionally for her. But should I
repeat the quote I just shared with you a second
ago off the air.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
I think it's fine, okay, yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
Riley Green called Ella Langley out recently after she set
the Internet on fire at a recent show. A fan
held up a phone with the words wink if Riley.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Green is a dumb and you can fill in the
next word all right, okay, and she did well.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
The Internet erupted because she winked, and so Riley heard
about it called her the next day very upset. In
an interview, she said she had to explain herself, and
she said, I was just trying to be funny, but
I realized by his reaction that I made a big mistake.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Hmmm.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
I don't know how I feel about that.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
I think there's something going on between the two of them,
to be completely honest.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
But well, he's been linked to Megan Maroney, I know it.

Speaker 1 (07:24):

Speaker 10 (08:08):
Like getting your tickets for Saturday Ski County.

Speaker 5 (08:11):
You can go.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
All right.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
I want to check you for ticks. Oh God, come
over here, Bethany.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Oh boy, I gotta check you for ticks.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
The Michael j Morning Show at ninety three point one WPOC.
We need to pay attention to ticks. It is ticks season.
And here's what I learned. I did a little research
for you because I got this bulletin that so many
people are coming down with lime disease, and now there's
something called baby's baby ciosis. And I know I'm bogering

(08:46):
it up. Maybe somebody in the medical profession can correct me.
Baby ciosis. Yeah, that's that looks like how you say it.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
Anyway.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
As tick season arrives in Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia,
health experts are raising earth warnings about baby ceosis, a
potentially life threatening bloodborne pathogen transmitted by ticks, the black
leg tick or deer tick. The dangerous tech poses a

(09:14):
significant risk as it thrives in our area.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
Did you know that we are We're like Heaven for ticks,
tick capital World. And here's what well.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
First off, if you live in any of these areas,
they say the highest incidents of lyme disease and baby
ceiosis Upper Eastern Shore, the counties of Cecil, Kent, Queen Anne's, Carolina,
and Talbot, north and east of Baltimore City, Particularly in
Baltimore and Harford Counties, ticks are commonly found along vegetational corridors.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
You have woods, and high grass behind your house. Down's Yourethani?

Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yeah, I saw that that is that is an indication
that ticks could be there. They're generally found in grassy, bushy,
and wooded areas. And here's what I didn't know. Ticks
apparently are not like in a tree ready to drop
on your head. They like to be in the leaves.

(10:12):
So when the leaves fall or if there's if there's you.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
Know, just like just like shrubbery.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Exactly when all the leaves fall off, it's moist and
damp and it's a place for the ticks to hang out.
And then when when a prey comes through, could be
a deer, could be a rabbit, could be a little mouse,
a little chipmunk. They like little critters, and we have
a lot of critters around here, so American dog ticks

(10:41):
attracted to animal sense can be found along the edges
of trails and roads. Be mindful of ticks when sitting
on logs, picnic benches, and rocks and campgrounds and parks
because they can crawl up your your shorts.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
Oh no, yeah, I'm serious.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
So I know, like on a dog, the ticks usually
go around the head like the neck, the ears like well,
where do they settle on humans?

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Any place they can get into, like a crack or
a crevice. You know what I'm saying. And I'm telling you.
I've been asking about this. We've been getting text about it.
In fact, I did see a text that just came
in and they said, I heard you talking about ticks.
I got one between my toes in the middle of
the night. I didn't know what was hurting.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
It was a tick.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
No way, Yes, I swear that was from six one
oh one. So I'm just I'm letting you.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
Know the moment I wake up with a tick between
my toes and you never had a tick before? I don't,
not on my person. No, I think the dogs. The
dogs get them.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
I know my dogs have been getting a lot of
ticks this year. So here's why this is getting so crazy.
The tick populations expanding rapidly through Virginia and Maryland.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
You need to know this.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
A recent study published by the Journal of Medical Entomology
highlights increasing prevalence of lime disease transmitting ticks in the area.
Doctor Robin Nadolni, who leads the US Army's Mill Tick Program,
reported receiving eighty ticks in one day. So what they

(12:19):
do is if anybody in the military in the Department
of Defense and the personnel gets a tick on them,
they want you to take them off.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
And then mail them in.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
What Yeah, And then they do a little investigation and
screen the tick for the disease to make sure you
didn't have a lime disease tick. So they got eighty
ticks in one day. This is how bad this is spreading.
So not to freak anyone out, just check yourself. Now
here is one thing we can learn really like. Okay,
and then we got to jump. I got a very

(12:48):
specific song to play. Ticks are repelled by strong sense,
essential oils and plants. Did you know ticks detest lemon
or orange, cinnamon, lavender. If you have lavender plants, ticks
won't go near it. Oh, okay, peppermint is really good. Spearmint.
I got those plants growing eucalyptus, rose, geranium, stage, oregano, time, citronella,

(13:14):
and clove bud. Okay, So if you have those plants
or I'm thinking you take some time or some uh
citronella or whatever and rub it on your wrists, rub
it on, rub it on your extremities. You know, and
try to keep the ticks out because you don't want lime,
and you don't want baby baby ceosa.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
I don't want that, all right, so watch out and
we're gonna we're gonna check you for ticks. Okay, all right,
it's a public service.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
So the Michael J Morning ninety three point one w POC.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
Every time you take a sip.

Speaker 11 (13:52):
In this smoke yade, you press that bottle.

Speaker 5 (13:58):
To your.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
All right, So what have we learned this morning? Here
at ninety three point one WPOC methane, I'm over here
itching for no reason.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
I want to check you for ticks. I am. I
got the hebgblright, so let's wrap it all up.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
The Maryland Department of Health identifies the black leg tick,
the American dog tick, and the lone star tick is
the most common ticks in Maryland, and they say it's
crucial to be aware of the potential of tick encounters.
So the number one place you can get ticks, apparently,
according to all this research, is under a tree, if

(14:38):
you sit under a tree. And when I read that,
I'm like, oh great, I've got a swing under a
tree in.

Speaker 4 (14:44):
Front of my house. I was just gonna say, what
are you doing under a tree. Well, I'm sitting there swinging.
You know, don't you have tree, you have shade trees.
I guess I don't hang out underneath them. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
See, I'm always out weeding and playing in the garden
and like this may s shock you, but I'm not
much of an outdoorsy kind of person.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
Well here's what they say.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
The ticks like to hang out in the leaf litter,
and then when you sit under the tree, they crawl
up your body very quickly from the ground. So now
you don't want to sit under any trees today, Okay, noted?
All right, I'll be steering clear of the trees. That
is what we've learned.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
So far this morning. In the Michael J.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
Morner Show, somebody on text wants you to know that
their dog had three ticks on Mother's Day weekend, just
in one day from walking around the yard.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
I'm done, doc, Hun, I know it's crazy. We have
gotten a tick explosion going on. Both of my dogs
have had ticks on.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
Isn't there like a tick like workshop at Oregon Ridge
Park or not workshop, but like a you know, they're
doing like a study over there or something.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
I put I put the tick drops on like down
the backs of my dogs.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah yeah, like what is it like frontline or something
like that, and they still get ticks.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
Yeah it doesn't. I mean sometimes it works.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yeah, and then they test positive for lime, so now
they're they're on antibiotics.

Speaker 4 (16:04):
Oh these babies.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Have you ever tried to get a six pound lasso?
What is mine called a it's a little sheet. I
got to make sure I say it right. Shit zoo
sheet zoo. Well, anyway, I love my dogs, but like, yeah,
try to get a really got bit.

Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah they did, so anyway, be able to look out
for texts. That's it.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
I literally feel itchy everywhere, so thank you for that.
You're welcome. H okay.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
In the outer loop at Locke Raven Boulevard, there's an
accident moved to the right shoulder. Things are stopp and
go back to bel Air Road. Disabled vehicle on ninety
five northbound after Cayton Avenue, causing stop and go traffic
back to six ninety five. We are backed up on
eight ninety five southbound before the Harbor Tunnel about ten
minutes and before the Fort mckennary Tunnel on ninety five
southbound for about five minutes.

Speaker 5 (16:54):
I heard the music.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
A salute to.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Toby Keith on what would have been his sixty fourth birthday.
And to sum up his personality, Bethany, let me just
give you a.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
Clue into what he was like.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
He was Henri for one thing, and you know he'd
go out on the road and he well, he let
his beard go, and I asked him about it. What
inspired this longer beard?

Speaker 12 (17:24):
At one point came back off us so thrond a
little scruffy. I thought, man, just let the goat go.
I'll keep it tied around. So I'm going to slit
the goat go. And my wife and family started complaining.
The more they cracked, the longer I let it get.
And finally they quit complaining. They just said, okay, they
just shut up. And then I shave it and said
we knew if we shut up, you shave it.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
There you go, man, I miss him. He really is
ninety three void one w p O C.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Now, pretty hey, we have to start off trending this
morning with more tragedy that just the death toll keeps
going up in Texas. That is really scary. I mean, really,
it happened so fast. They say it was four months
of rain in minutes, maybe an hour or whatever.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
It just rose so quickly.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
People just you know, I keep seeing these reports about
did local officials do enough to warn?

Speaker 3 (18:19):
And did Noah which has been phased back, did that
impact it on some level?

Speaker 4 (18:24):
Yeah? You know, what do we know about cloud seating?
Does anybody know anything about it? I don't know. I
saw a thing.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
About that too, Yeah, and I was like, you know,
this is another thing about like the Internet giving you
too much information.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yeah, it's like everything becomes political right away. The bottom
line is we lost a lot of folks, children, little
kids that you know, young girls that were at a
mystic camp. That camp was much and they're still trying
to find all the bodies.

about anime. We got a couple of texts.

Yeah, Netflix says that fifty percent of their users, which
is three hundred million people, are into anime.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
So we were like, what what's the deal?

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Emily says, I'm not a huge anime fan, but one
anime film that completely won me over is Spirited Away.
She says it's stunning and there's just something magical and
nostalgic about it. I mean, her description makes me kind
of want to watch it. I don't really like any cartoons.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yeah, I mean I do like some. When I was
a kid, speed Racer was a cool one. Do you
remember speed Racer that's really gone back?

know the American Dad. Yeah, I mean they have that
whole thing going on TV with the cartoons.

would be still in a car seat perhaps, right, because
otherwise wouldn't the kid get out of the car by itself?

Speaker 4 (26:11):
Right? All right?

Speaker 3 (26:12):
So we need a mom who currently has kids in
a car seat to call, Yeah, to call eight eight
hundred three two one six ninety three because I want
to share a story with you and I would love
to hear about how a mom reacts to this. And

(26:32):
you're a mom, Bethany, but your kids are like mine,
they're a little bit older, they're not in car seats. Yeah,
so for us to leave our kids in the car,
I mean, our kids are going to get out.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
It's really when they're when they're locked in.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Well, yeah, when they're depending on us as a parent
to have them in you know, our minds twenty four
to seven and to have their best interest at heart.
As of July second, nine children have died after being
left unattended in vehicles in California, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, New Mexico,

(27:13):
New Jersey, North and North Carolina.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Wow. Wow, I think that's a lot.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
I'm blown away by it. That's an awful lot. I
would love to hear from. Hold on for one second.
Let's see, I'll go right to the lines. I want
to hear from a mom. Excuse me, because I want
to ask a question or two here, and I don't
want to be I'm not going to try to judge,
all right, but hey, can you turn your radio down
for a second?

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (27:46):
Yes, Hi?

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Hey, what's your name?

Speaker 9 (27:49):
Aaron?

Speaker 4 (27:51):
And Aaron? You've got young children or a young child?

Speaker 9 (27:55):
Yes, I have a six year old and one year
old that are both in the car seats in the
back seat with me. All right, how do right? Now,
but I'm on my way to work, but I have.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
Them right Well, so here's the story again, I'll repeat it.
As of July second, nine children have died after being
left unattended in vehicles, and all those states that we mentioned, California, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland,
on and on and listen to this five died.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
In June.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
Last year, thirty nine children in the US died after
being left in hot cars. No other details are available
in the Bell Camp death, and no charges have been fouled,
but the Sheriff's office said an investigation continues. So I
want to ask you, as a mom, how is it
possible that that many parents And I'm not just blaming moms,

(28:43):
it's moms and dads apparently, But how do we forget
our kids in the car?

Speaker 9 (28:48):
I know this is a touchy subject because I feel
so bad because I don't want to be like so rude.
I know everybody has so many things on their mind,
and everyone's so busy nowadays, everyone's go, go, go, But
to me, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (29:02):
I just couldn't. I mean, they're back there. I actually
like on my way to work. Sometimes I still look
for them. I go to get them out when I
get to work.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Well, that's the question that I have, Like, okay, because
I think I would imagine that stuff like this happens when,
like you know, Dad usually takes them, but today mom
is taking them today, care or vice versash. I mean,
like when it's not really part of your normal routine.
Something like that, I can imagine happening. They fall asleep,

(29:31):
You're you've got seventeen things on your mind.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
Do you have blacked out windows that you don't see
the backseat. I'm just thinking when I get out of
my car, I'm kind of looking at I can't. I
just can't. And I'm not trying to judge. I'm really
really really not but I know and I.

Speaker 6 (29:47):
Try not too.

Speaker 9 (29:48):
And then you hear that and you're just like, but
your heart sinks because it's so avoidable.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Yeah, and the I mean, it's so hot in cars.
You don't even leave a dog in a car, much
less your child.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
So I don't know.

Speaker 9 (30:03):
I'd have a twenty three Camry and there actually tells me.
It actually says check your rear seat when I turned
my keys.

Speaker 4 (30:11):
Yeah, I've seen that, and I.

Speaker 9 (30:12):
Think that's crazy that they had to put that in there.

Speaker 4 (30:15):
And then I wonder if that you really do anything?

Speaker 3 (30:17):
Well, I mean maybe, hey, bone head, is anybody in
your backseat?

Speaker 1 (30:23):
No, but like the demands on parents have like never
been higher, and I just feel like, I don't know,
nobody would do that on purpose.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
Obviously, you know what I mean, you would think so No.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
But and then I think, you know, I mean, are
they are people on drugs or people?

Speaker 4 (30:40):
Like what else is going on?

Speaker 3 (30:42):
I mean, are we so busy that you know what
I mean, there's so many things in our head that
we're not thinking about our child.

Speaker 4 (30:48):
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (30:49):
I just I don't know. It's terrible.

Speaker 4 (30:52):
I can't wrap my head around it.

Speaker 9 (30:54):
Suffer. Yeah, l does obviously still fall asleep back there,
and yeah sometimes ill. But I don't know. I just
can't imagine ever forgetting about him because I have him
so much a.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Part of your thirty nine children in the US in
the past year thirty it's a classroom full of kids.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
It's wild.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
Yeah, Well, listen, thank you very much for listening, and
thanks for calling in.

Speaker 9 (31:19):
Thanks Aaron, Yes, sir, thank you so much.

Speaker 12 (31:22):
I have a great day night.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Take care there. Goes erin.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
I think I wonder if it's part of everybody's like routine,
like routine, like you know, here are the things that
I do every morning blah blah blah blah blah, and
one of them is like put the kids in the
car to take the kids to take care blah blah blah.
Like I think it probably happens, Not that I'm excusing it,
but I think it probably happens on a day when

(31:46):
like you know, the partners switch off and you know,
like that.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
I don't know, for whatever reason what it is. I'm
just putting myself in the mind of like can you
I mean, I'm speechless, Yeah, I'm really speech Thirty nine
kids left in cars in the last year.

Speaker 5 (32:07):
Ninety three point one WPOC traffic eight.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
