Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killy Nash, Happy Friday. It is Monday Show today.
We got more Cane Brown tickets to give away Monday
morning at six thirty. What you're talking about, Yeah, we're
trying to figure.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Out if we're gonna be able to do that all
next week or you're just going to go up till
Thursday of next week.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Better whin Monday?

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Yeah, that's right, the April twenty fourth at the Colonial
Life Arena with Mitchell Tenpenny and Ashley Cook. You got
your pair of tickets. If you know what the word
smeuz means smuce smuze, and you could make it.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Like smeoh, smewsh. I don't know. We're we're big lately
on words that have a derogatory meeting. So I'm going
to go with scuttle butt at the office around the
water cooler that includes the naming of a smeuze the

(00:48):
office spush You people stop smoozing in the hallway, and
it's typically a woman because it has something to do
with the way that you dress. Wow, that's a smewze.
Your's so specifics that tonight You're not close. That's not
even close. No, this is a hole in a wall.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Or a fence often used by animals to pass through.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Really they use a we have a word for that,
you know, can't we just say he went through that
hole right there, crack right there on the wall. Then
you would think you could say fix that hole, But
I apparently well educated folks say fix that smeoz Well,
then I guess if you live in Heathwood, the former

(01:34):
grounds of Heathwood Hall, the school, then you would actually
not have a hole in a garden fence, you know.
Aus That's right, we got to fix that. That's me white, highbrow,
very very That's what we're all about here on the morning.
It's being sophisticated, giving you words to make you sound
like you belong to a higher class. I like it,

(01:56):
all right, So I'm going to try to find out
way to use that over the weekend three times.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
And that's going to be six thirty on Monday morning.
So we got that to look forward to.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Jonathan.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
My wife freaks me out because she does not care
about her phone battery. Do you know anybody like this?
My wife may be one of a kind where she
didn't care about it. So like we'll sit on the
couch and she'll be like oh, let me show you
this thing. And she'll go to show it to me,
and I'll look and it'll say literally two percent or

(02:27):
one percent left of battery life, all right, like when
we first started dating or whatever. I beg, my god,
your phone's almost dead.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Go charge it. I don't worry about it, and it'll
just die, and she'll be, Yep, it died, all right,
I'll go plug it in now. So she doesn't charge
her phone until it dies, and it dies a good
sign for her every day it dies. She doesn't live
by her phone like a heartbeat. It's not like a
pacemaker went out.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Okay, Well, let me also point out she has three
cell phones, so she does.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
But oh, but she's got another one. Yeah, she's got
plenty of phones, like a Western fighter. She got one
on each hip, and then she got one on her sock.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
But I know, I start to feel I don't know.
I don't want to say angst. Maybe that's not the
right word. But if I get below forty percent on
my battery and I have a charger available, I will
start charging it.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
That is so bizarre, because here's a guy who will
drive his car when the needles passed E But we're not.
We're gonna make sure if we're less than three quarters full,
we're gonna go ahead and charge it up again on
your phone A currently currently my car says now, because
my car now gives you the mileage that you have left. Yeah,

(03:38):
my car now has eighteen miles left. Yeah, but you
know what he gets forty miles left.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
You think I've never really pushed it on that. I
used to do it when we got to the red
light and stuff back in the old days. But now
that it's got the miles, I just believe it. But no,
we have, we have done a survey. Now this is
I don't know how they can move in.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
This is not gonna be a good look for America.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Twelve thousand US adults were surveyed regarding their phone battery strength,
and in the survey, the number that is most often
referred to as the magic number where people start to
feel a little something about their battery life is thirty
eight percent. Unbelievable when you have thirty eight percent left,
how about you?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
No, When the matter of fact, I'll turn my phone
off because I don't want of those not interested don't care.
And then when I turn it back on, if someone
has texted me and it was something that they needed
an answer on or I should have given an answer
on pretty quickly, I will tell them my battery was out,
which is true because I turned it off. That means
the battery is out. Yeah. I wouldn't lie it. Yeah,

(04:44):
but no, I let it. I'll let it go completely.
It may be an hour or two before I even
realize it died. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Don't even look at so don't that literally puts you
in two percent of Americans believe you are in the.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Two You are a very leave ball. Now. Thirty four
percent not a life support system people, it's a phone.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Well, I mean for some people it is like a
life support system, right, I mean it's the computer that
runs your life, especially now that we're going into an AI.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
I heard that.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Declared yesterday that we have left what was the age
that we were in Now, agriculture became the whatever industry.
Agriculture went into manufacturing industry that ended in like twenty
nine twenty or excuse nineteen nine.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Industrial Revolution. Yeah, we had the Industrial Revolution in the
late eighteen hundreds, early nineteen hundreds. We were in the
manufacturing era based into the automation era that ended. We
are now in the service era that is now over.
We are now officially into the IT or a you

(05:57):
know AI world effective of mediately, was it with an
aligning of the planets or someone just declared that.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
They just said that now more than fifty percent of
jobs in the next five years will be in the
AI industry. So if you're not in the AI industry,
you will be left behind. Kind of like if you
weren't in agriculture back in the day, you weren't eating.
If you were not in the manufacturing industries back in
the you know, forties, fifty sixties, you aren't eating. If
you're not in AI, you ain't going to be eating.

(06:27):
So it's all about the phones now, and that's maybe
that's why so many people say that they can't let
it get below fifty percent.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
For gen Z, I'm off the grid for twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Sixty four percent of gen z or is say if
it gets below forty three percent, they have to find
a charger immediately. Gen X, it's thirty eight percent. So
that's my that's my generation. Thirty thirty eight percent is
our magic number for the gen xers.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
I'm in the proud two percent. Don't give a.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Damn Yeah, I mean, who are you people? So you
and my wife, you two can chat about the rest
of wurs anyway. So that was another survey that was
we had popped up. Don't forget tomorrow's record store day.
We got a thing up on the Morning Rest blog
showing you where all the sales are happening.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
John's got a big celebration. Yeah, you know, let me
go back to the Papa if I is it? Uh?
They should? I think it's Columbia still. Well, maybe not
the only record store, but it is certainly the most recognizable,
its power nature, It's Papa Jazz and Papa Jazz is
at twenty fourteen Papa John's. No, that's pizza. What am

(07:38):
I thinking? I don't go to Papa Jazz. I'm not
into vinyl, not even the rebirth of vinyl and whom
a lot of my boys are. I've got vinyl if
I want to play it, but I haven't played vinyl
and anything in years.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Drip Coffee at seven twenty nine, Saluta, Scratch and Spin
in West Columbia. Vintage Vinyl on Augusta Road, Lexington.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
That's right, vintage vinyl Yeh Music.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Gator and Sumter, they're all having specials tomorrow. Now there's
a whole bunch of artists that are releasing special things
on vinyl tomorrow, but I don't see any country artists.
So we got like post Malone doing a cover set.
He did a whole set of Nirvana Wow in April

(08:22):
of twenty twenty. This will be your first time you
can hear it. It's on and it's exclusively on vinyl.
Rage against the Machine.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
This would be a good weekend for me to make
some money. I should go pull out some of that
vinyl because I've got all kind of vinyl specialties that
record companies used to send out.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
They've got a David Bowie concert from London two thousand
and three that's going out tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's cool. The Killers, Joni Mitchell, I know you're a
huge Johnny Mitchell. Joni Mitchell and Joan Baias love Them.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Nineteen seventy six La Express Tour will now have a
three LP release tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
Does Neil Young have something as well? I could celebrate.
Wouldn't that be amazing? You could get your Neil Young.
Joni Mitchell, I know John Bias and Neil Young are
going to be appearing soon, maybe this weekend somewhere. Of course,
Taylor Swift is doing something, but the handicap row is
going to be over sold. So anyway, get ready for

(09:18):
record day. The physically handicapped that here, the mentally handicappeds
that behind them.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
The mentally handicapped at this concert. That would be Jonathan
Rush's assessment of all. Never forget Neil Young, a Southern man.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Don't need your round, No, sir, wouldn't walk across the
street to meet you. I walked across the street to
get away from you. You probably eat whatever I had
in my hands. Anyway, is Neil Young known to be
a oh he's huge now I have not seen him.
I first thought that Neil Young was John Bias when
I saw the picture, like, wow, John Bias really let
herself go first out. That was That was Neil Young

(09:56):
who started the rumor Mama Cass had died. He used
to have pork chop side burns and he ate them.
I did not know this about Neil Young. I gotta go.
Now you're forcing me to google Neil Young. I'm turning
on my yesterday's venting towards Dustin Johnson. Now to Neil Young,
are you in Dustin? Okay? Have you guys worked? I
still want to see him do well the Masters. I
was hopefully it ended up, you know, at least in

(10:19):
a negative number. He's only up plus two. That's a
good place to be going into day two of the competition.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
But but what about you know you've had the standing order.
Anybody who sees him to tell him. Jonathan Rusk says,
kiss my hand.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Now he's still telling that. He'll laugh. His wife wouldn't.
She wouldn't know who you are though she didn't grow
up here Wayne Gretzky's daughter, right, but she would laugh.
So as we head into moral dilemma Monday, I've got
a buddy who's asking me for a work reference.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
I love this guy. We've been friends for a long time,
and I want him to get a job. He's really
been struggling, and God love him, He's just not a
reliable person. He just doesn't show up for stuff. And
I'm not really sure what I, you know, should.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Do here, because I mean I wouldn't. I wouldn't want
him to.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Work with us or anybody else because he's not a
good employee.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
But I also want him to have a job. I'll
tell you how you handle this, Okay, if you decide
there's no way out of it, which the first answer
is get out of it. But if you decide there's
no way to get out of it, you could do
what I did once. I was so excited to hear
that Kelly was applying for a job with your company.

(11:39):
Now I didn't say that. I typed it so they
could read in their own emotion. Oh, what I was
writing is if Kelly, I was so excited to hear
Kelly was applying for a job with your company, And
that's how you write that. But is there anything about
him in the recommendation I didn't put in there. If
you'd like further conversation, my number is recalled, so it's

(12:02):
not really a ringing endorsement. It's just I'm excited that
he's applying for a job with your comfort, the way
I handled it, Okay, all right, that's interesting. They didn't call,
and they hired him. They didn't call it. Thankfully they
didn't remember my letter of recommendation, my line of recommendation.
Otherwise I know this guy. He would have called. I
would have told him, hey, I told you, I was

(12:25):
excited to hear he was working with your company. Kind
of surprised you wanted to get off his button do anything,
not mind, I would have told you that if you
had have called you didn't call us. All on you,
it's on you.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
I worked with a guy years ago named Michael Mays
who was a very talented DJ, and a guy named
Brian Bridgeman at Q one or two Philadelphia hired Michael Mays.
I did not know that Michael Mays was looking for
work and was leaving my station. We had had a
lot of problems with him at that point. He didn't
show up for appearances, he was late to work all
the time. Yeah, And I saw Brian Bridgeman the day

(12:58):
the news broke in the trades that Michael May's moving
to Philadelphia to be Q one o two midday personality.
And he saw me and he said sorry about that.
And I said, if you had called me, you might
not have been hiring him. So I might be saying
sorry about that to you.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
You better telling me his work in mornings. Maybe he'll
show up by midday.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
Well, turns out Michael May has never moved to Philadelphia.
He tried to commute every day from new Haven to Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
He was on average thirty minutes late. And then he
tried to get out thirty minutes early every day to
go back to New Haven. He ended up getting fired
at Q one O two. Surprisingly, he ended up landing
a job at k Rock in New York City. So
he goes from getting fired in Philadelphia to market number one.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Did he move to New York for that? That was
the thing. The guy who was the boss is a
guy named Steve Kingston, and Steve Kingston said in the contract,
you are going to have to show me when you
have to buy or have a place rented in one
of these five zip codes. This is where you have
to have a residence. But yeah, he got a great joke.
He was the guy who came out on after Howard Stern.

(14:02):
Howard Stern was the morning guy, and then Michael Mayson.
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay. He lives out in
Philip excuse me, he was in Vermont these days. He's
doing rather well.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
But yeah, would would I have recommended him for a job,
Absolutely not. I would not have recommended him for a job.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
But he wasn't one of my friends either that's the thing,
that's the friendship part. Well, show me what you're gonna write. Yeah, oh,
I'm gonna write that.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
I think you're a I'm excited that you're leaving, or
that you're going somewhere, or that you're applying.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
You gotta spice it up a little more. Pal Tom Tom,
I was busy, only had time for one loan. I'll
do that. I'll help you out. I'll write what I
want and then you just put your name to it.
What do you think? Oh no, no, that's not good.
He's the most diligent worker of all time, this creative
problem solver, self starter, he's all the things and more.

(14:56):
I have a small world in the business community. You
can't be putting yourself out there like that. Don't do it, Okay,
I don't know. It's one of those things where I
hate to lie. I didn't lie.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
But it's not really ever going to come back on you.
It's not like they ever go after the references.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Well they didn't call. They didn't call me when it
went south.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
But even you know, if you had said, you know
so and so is a great employee, and then it
turns out a month later they're firing him because he's not.
It's not like they call you and say we're gonna
sue you or whatever. You sold us a bill of
goods on this guy.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
It wasn't true. That's great, so we'll get into the
moral dilemma. Monday be about seven tennis. If you find
yourself over the weekend starting to get answered, you go
and go go through DTS. If you don't get your
phone plugged in once it hits thirty eight percent, I
got to hear about this Monday. And if you're like me,
you don't care. I hear from you as well. If

(15:53):
you're in your car, you just plug it in, or
some cars you just didn't. You lay it down on
the thing. It off. Okay, you just don't want to
be on the phone. No, no, I do not like
the electronic leash. All right, So, hey, what's going on
in your neighborhood we should be talking about. Let us
know you reach out to us on social media. You
