Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killing Nash, Hello Jonathan Tomorrow Show, April the twenty second, Tuesday,
Earth Day on the Morning Rush.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
How do we celebrate Earth Day on the Morning Rush?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
You know, I need to ask some crunchies what we
need to do to celebrate that appropriately?
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Do we eat grape nuts?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I've never like we talked about before. I never liked
the grape nuts. I do like some of the new
crunchy cereals, and I do like the oatmeal. I just
don't like eating rocks, just like eating pebbles. That should
have been the Pebbles cartoon we saw as kids from
the Flintstones.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I loved pebbles. Cereal that was good, that was loaded
with sugar. Grape nuts? Was the guy compared it? If
I remember right, I forget his name, Like it's not
Ansel Adams, but it's like fuel gibbons, mule gibbons, you'l gibbons,
I believe. Compared it to eating tree bark.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
You know many parts are edible? Yeah, you ever eat
a tree? No, many parts are edible. Who is this guy?
He's some health nut who tragically die tot like fifty
from a massive heart attack. Too much pine sap It
is snacking on pine trees.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, we'll celebrate Earth Day by giving you something that's
very Earth friendly. Tickets to Monster Jam. We're go half
diesel legits exploding all over the Colonial Life Arena. If
you want to go there. It's here all this weekend.
But we're going to give you tickets. We have the
free tickets to the Saturday one o'clock show. This is
(01:33):
a four pack of tickets. And then enter you into
the Ultimate prize. This would be the pre show pit
party where you and the kids get to meet the drivers.
I think you get a tour of a truck or
something like that. It's supposed to be very exciting.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Okay, it'll do tomorrow morning, six thirty. What you're talking about?
The word again?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
The word again is the longest word we've ever used.
I'm giving it a shot after listening to people announce it.
Flock Sannoch and hlip in h'lli pilification.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Flockxannoch and hill the hill of exactly flocksanoch and HILLI pilification.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yes, I'm sure that is.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Like it's it's a description of someone who overstates there
what would appear to be an educated opinion, but it's
actually just chuck full of crap.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
You know that's not a bad guess, because it's kind
of as always with you in the arena of what
we're looking for, the actual answer is considering something to
be worthless. So their their opinion was, in fact the
flock sanoch in hilopaphication. Your opinion is the flock sanoch
(02:52):
and hiliplification. Now, the interesting thing is, Jonathan, you always say,
try to use this three times in a sentence. I
don't know how you slide this into a conversation and
just seem normal.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
It's gonna be a little bit of a stretch for
most of us because on a solific, not exactly in
the southern kind of typical conference.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
I don't need that straw. A straw is phloxanak and
hill paphilication. Man, take it away from me.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
It's good.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Do you like straws, by the way, I love them.
I get rid of them every time, and it almost
seems like sometimes I feel like I'm offending the waitress. No, no,
I don't want a straw now.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
I always need to get a to go cup, and
with it to go cup, I'm gonna want the lid
and with the lid. You got to have the straw
because I'm going to be putting it in a cup
holder that's in the.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Door of the corner and you could shut it down.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Sally has to use both cup holders in the center console.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
You know. Another good point is that a women's thing
because my wife, My wife will take up both center console, yes,
and have one more on the side.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, you put a bottle of water in the side
in the door. She's gonna take a boast in the consoles.
And I only get the little thing of the door panel.
And it has to have a top because if I
get out and forget about it, then I slamm it
and have iced tea all down at the bottom of
the door panel.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I don't like that. And does your wife also love
the practice of buying like a coffee or something and
taking like two SIPs and then that's the end of that. No,
she does to do that, my wife. I don't think
she's ever finished anything in her life, like, not any food,
any beverage, anything. And then it's like, well, why am
(04:33):
I buying a medium when you're not even gonna drink
half a small?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Can we get a shot of coffee?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Exactly? But she doesn't think that. And then then she'll
she'll come right out and just openly lie to me
about it and say, no, I'm gonna reheat it, and
you're not reheating it. She's that's good.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I wonder know why I will? Why I look older
on Saturdays than I do on Sundays.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I go. I go to Dunkin Donuts every Saturday and
Sunday morning.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Okay, Sally knows.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I'm going to get up. I'll wake up somewhere around
five thirty, about ten till six, I'm leaving because that
duncan opens at six. I'm getting a medium decaf with
cream and sugar.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
You want a dcalf to start the day.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I already have my caffeinated shot thing going on. Oh
I got my caffeinated.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Water, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
So I'm going to get a medium dcaf, cream and sugar.
And on Saturdays they always give me the senior discount,
because if you're like fifty and older, you get like
a senior discount fifty.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah, I gotta go to Dunkin Donuts and see if
I can get in on.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I never get it on Sunday. I look younger on
Sunday mornings. I'm assuming.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Do you ever ask them, am I not?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I have not. She'll tell you on the on the
on the speaker, that'll be three eighteen pill around. Yeah,
the price went up, it's three eighteen. Okay, that'll be
three eighteen pill around. Well, Saturday, I ended up getting
it for like two eighty five or something. But but
they don't say it on the speaker. They say it's
three eighteen. And then you pull around and look at
you oldie. Yea, I look like on Saturday morning, and
(06:07):
I'm not even partying typically on Friday nights anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Typically typically I can't say it like like you know,
definitively there's every Friday, you know about once a year.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Look bad on Saturday mornings. Maybe it's because well, no,
I don't take a shower, talk. I get home and
get my cup of coffee, go home, and then I
get a shower, go to church.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
It's just a different working crew.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But sometimes no, sometimes just the same girl.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yesterday you hooked me up. Where's my hook up?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Right?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
No, you're not him? I am he Well, maybe Jonathan,
you were talking earlier this morning about your granddaughter got
four Easter baskets filled with candy. So the website Boozist
says most parents or grandparent, but most parents will steal
(07:02):
some of the kid's candy that they got because there's
just so much that they've been given to them, and
the parents want it and the kids won't even notice
if it's stolen. So they have concocted a what pair's
best in the wine category with your candies. So I
don't know if this is more women, but I know
a lot of men love wine as well. I love
wine with steak. That's usually the only time I'll have
(07:24):
wine unless somebody is like just pouring a bottle and
they're like, you know, everybody wants a glass. Okay, I'll
have a glass too. But if you're having like jelly beans,
they say, go with the seven yon blanc.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
I could see that it will balance out of the
white wine that's not fruity.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
And that's what they say. It balances out your fruity
flavors and the jelly beans. It's a perfect match. If
you got with the chocolate bunnies, they want the Cabana
Cabernet seven yon.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Absolutely that heavy chocolate's gonna need something that's gonna not
gonna compete with it.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
If you're having the Reeses talking over here, like a
wine kind of sewer. Yeah, Reese's Eggs, they go with
the murlau. The Cadbury Cream Eggs with is it pronounced processo? Prosecco?
The also with the murlau would go Robin's Eggs, Sour
Patch Bunnies with Pino grigio.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Oh, I would go in with a ripple, and.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Finally strawberry heel. I'm just reading what they wrote here.
The most iconic Easter candy. You'll need something extra crisp
and to enjoy these peeps. A Chardonnay with pear and
apple flavors enhances the marshmallowy sugar treats while not overwhelming them.
Peeps should never be eaten. We talked about that last week.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Noway, if they made us instead of sugar coated, if
they made a salt covered peep, you could put that
like floating in one of those big margaritas you get
at the Mexican restaurant. I want a pond of margherita
it with three salty peeps.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
We have that list if you need to refer back
to it on the Morning Bust blog also, maybe who's
stealing their kids Easter candy? How's that? God, you get caught?
Did you get yelled at by the kids?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Got a new favorite this year, chocolate carrots. I don't
know who makes them. I just know you buy them
at Bee Beep. And it's it's a little it's a
little aluminum covered piece of chocolate, not little, probably about
the size of your index finger. And it is shaped
like a carrot. And you tear the wrapper off and
it's got like a it's like a little popsicle stick
(09:37):
handle at the end. It is eat it down, Janey,
I mean Sally got those for little Sarah.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
We We have a new thing happening in California, Jonathan,
and I'm just interested in your feedback on this. Apparently
in an attempt to curb crime and also reduce dramatic
man hours. There's two new stores that I don't know
where in California. These are just says. They have two
(10:07):
stores opened now in California called ven Hub, and these
are convenience stores where you do not go into the
convenience store. You can download their app, or you can
write at the window, place your order, and a robot
walks around the store and gets the goods and brings
(10:28):
them to the window once you've paid for them.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
This is even better than the convenience store that I
think I've wandered out loud for the past fifteen to
twenty years. Why don't we have these? So it's like
a regular convenience store front, except all the windows. It's
like looking at a gigantic vending machine. All the windows
are nothing but images and you just touch what you
(10:51):
want and then it comes out to shoot at the
bottom like a gigantic vending machine.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
It's like the when you get the movies. Yes, what
is that called the red box?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Red box? Why don't we have a gigantic red box
of all the best selling stuff in the convenience store.
I never go in and use my card outside it
dumps it all right there in one shoot.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Well, I got two stores like that now in California.
So you like it.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
I do like it. This is a great idea. Now,
the ad of benefit is the robotics that come into
play now with AI, so I can actually see the
robot going to get my stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's like a show.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
But when I first moved to Ohio, I could not
conceive of did I know these ever existed. No, but
you're in three degree weather, so I understand why they exist.
And I wanted to builds some when I got back
to South Carolina. And there are reasons why you can't.
But you would drive through like a car wash, and
(11:45):
there were you drive through and you're outside there at
the at the little station. The point of sale is
the heavily coated, scarfed and hooded attendant, and you tell
him what you want and he goes into the store area,
gets all that stuff and comes back. Now, I would
(12:06):
have thought that would have been great in South Carolina
because you just drive through and tell me you want
a twelve pack of butdwise, the guy go gets it,
brings it back to your car. That way, you never
have to get out because it's so cold you don't
want to get out. You want to stay in the
warmth of your car. Turns out, in South Carolina, you
can't build those because there are restrictions. Believe it or not,
if your store sells alcohol, there are restrictions on the
(12:32):
size of the door that can lead in and out
of the building, and a garage door is too big
to fit the descriptions. Therefore it's illegal. To build what
I wanted to call screeching peals, screech to a stop,
get your beer, peel out.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
When I was a young man eighteen, I was eighteen,
the drinking age in Vermont was eighteen. The drinking age
in Connecticut was twenty one, So we would I know,
this is breaking news to my mother. We would often
on a Friday after work drive to Vermont where the
(13:08):
beer and wine sales were open un till midnight. Okay,
it's about a two hour drive. It'd be like driving
to Greenville from here. Would you be willing as an
eighteen year old to drive to Greenville to know you
could buy whatever you want. You could even go to
a bar if you wanted, but we didn't want to
go to bars. We would leave at like five o'clock,
get to Vermont at seven, get off exit one, and
(13:30):
they knew every kid was coming from Massachusetts, Connecticut and
New York because I think New York was twenty one too.
We would all get off Exit one and it was
a drive through beer and wine sales store. You never
got out of your car. It was like a fast
food restaurant. What do you want? We want a case
of bush? We want a case of bud Light. We
want a case of whatever, and we'll take a bottle
(13:52):
of Boonez Farm. Great, it'll be thirty five fifty or whatever.
Pull up to the window. And you pull up to
the window and they got that stuff all loaded up.
You're backing it. So you never the whole process, depending
on the length of the line, because it could be long.
But the process was like five minutes and you got
your whole vehicle loaded up. They just put it in
the trunk for you. They would card you at the thing,
(14:14):
and then we would be back in Connecticut by nine o'clock.
And then we were at the party by like nine
to fifteen, strolling in with cases of beer like we'd
a mac.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
The epitome of the word making a beer run. Yeah,
drove two hours. Yeah, so you're four hours in round trip.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
And somebody like Billy Turby or one of those, not
that you all knew Billy Turby, but for my friends
who might be listening to the podcast, you know, the
kinds of guys I'm talking about, the Billy Turby's of
the world. They would say, and we need the travel
six pack or whatever it was, so we'd have to
throw in an extra six pack for us two or
three guys that are going to be rolling back to Connecticut.
(14:51):
We need a little something to prime the pump before
you got back to Connecticut. And we would be singing
like skinnered songs the whole way back. It was incredible.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
You know, down south, we didn't have to make the
road trip like that. But I knew a guy who
had the toolbox in the back of his truck. Yeah,
the typical toolbox, but it only had on Friday afternoon,
it only had ice in it. He'd go put it,
get all the beer and put it in there, and
then dump another four or five bags of ice on it.
(15:24):
Now you're ready for the weekend.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Absolutely help yourself in the toolbox. It's great.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
And I can only imagine your friends trying to do
the same thing. You got to fill the trunk with ice,
and you gotta put the beer in there, but the
car would be sitting like this all the way back
because it's gets a little heavy.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Parker Swan would have done that. Thinking about Parker, he
was that kind of guy. Anyway, Boy Parker, trunk full
of beer. Absolutely so other stories that we were looking
at on the Morning Rush Blog today Jonathan, let me
hang on. I'm having a little trouble getting back to there.
What's going on my internet connection? Here? I got all
(16:02):
this goodness waiting for us on the morning round one day. Yeah. Oh,
if you're if you're on a date, it's your first
date and you want to have a second date. According
to the research here, the best first dates are not
dinner dates. They're not going to the movies dates, they're
not going to concert dates. Those are less likely to
(16:23):
lead to a second date. Me. Yeah, what's that.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Sally and I went on our first date together at
the Anderson County Fair, okay, And all I did was
that to show up with enough money, which at the
time would have been a challenge to make sure that
her little nephew could ride all the rides you wanted
to ride. And we just walked around watch her nephew
ride rides, and we had, you know, sugary drinks and
(16:49):
fattening snacks at the concessions.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
That's before she cared about your diet. Right.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Well, it's just doing something like that, not like a
dating experience so much, but just a outing.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
It says here, some sort of an activity, like an
active date, like they give. The best ones are going
on hikes, doing something where you're going to be like
the photo that I used is these people are playing
corn hole together, all right, So if you if you
can come up with some sort of thing where we're
(17:24):
going to be doing an activity together and that could
be oh yeah, yeah, go throw some axes or whatever
that be. That could be fun. But whatever it is
that you're doing, if you want to get a second date,
they say that out of all their research, you're like
eighty percent more likely to have a second date if
you did something like a physical activity together on a
(17:45):
first date. So you can take that for what it's worth.
If you're in the dating pool, pickleball, Oh, if you
can start it off with a pickleball.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Paddle ball. Janey's big into paddle ball.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
What is paddleball? Do I know what that is?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
You have that you know? I haven't looked it up,
but I remember paddleball. It was kind of like handball,
but you had a paddle and.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
You're playing, so you're playing it against a wall.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
They can't be right, so it must be like pickleball.
I don't know, I need to look it up. I
know she's in some kind of paddleball thing in Nashville,
and she said, it's all the right.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I know when New York handball was a huge sport
and I never saw anybody else really playing it. So
I don't know if it's just a New York thing.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
But they had that special little leather thing that covered
your palm.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I guess so. And they're just they're just whacking it
against the wall, kind of like AETA. It's racketball without
all the walls and without roof because they were playing
outside of the park.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I love racketball. That was a fun Is there a
place to play racketball anymore? I love playing racketball.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
I don't know if what I don't Move Fitness is
not Move Fitness anymore. I don't remember what they became,
but I don't know if they still have the right
they when I was a member of Move Fitness, like
maybe two or three years ago, they still had the
racquetball courts.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I love racketball, so I don't know if that's I'm
not quick enough to play it like I did back
in the day.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
And Jonathan, we're in the middle, I guess now of
the prom season, and the question has been brought to
the table. Are proms overrated? Is it too much pressure?
Is it too much? You know, like, what if you
don't get asked to the prom? What if the prom
doesn't go right? Is this is I.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Think proms are a great idea for young people. This
is your first taste of a formal experience, and you're
gonna need to know how to handle yourself in a
formal experience. So you're probably gonna have a with hope,
You're going to have a meal at a place where
there's going to be more than one fort one knife
and one spoon. Well, you need to know how to
(19:43):
handle that.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
What about the kids who don't get a prom date?
M sucks to be You do better.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
That's true. Okay, maybe I'm wrong in this. I would
have thought this would be great training because you're going
to be going into those very formal places as an adult.
You need to train up. Let's see, and you're gonna
be dressed in a certain attire. Yeah, you definitely gotta
remember when.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Well we say that, but then we see some of
these prom photos today where the girls are dressed like
absolute horse. Kelly what was her name, Kelly Pickler? Her
prom photo was at best R rated at best. Remember
that photo photo. What year was that, like two thousand
and seven we saw that one she was ever she
(20:34):
was on American Idol and somebody posted her photo from
her Where's she from? In North Carolina with some small
little town.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
It's not Gastonia, but it's somewhere like that.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
And it's like something that you would imagine a stripper
would wear as she entered the stage. This will be
in a humbled heap on the floor, rumbled keeping the
floor in about thirty seconds. But she wears it on
the stage to look elegant.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Like a bear middrift thing kind of. Yeah, with the bareback.
I think we later saw somebody who wore it better
as a way, I think we later saw some a
teenager who was pregnant and they showed off a belly.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah, we have pregnant prom dates.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Everybody wants to rub the baby. Oh my gosh, how
does it put it out there so you can rub
the skin? Loo? Could the belly button? See if it's
if the thermometer is about to pop up like on
a turkey breast.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Did you have a good mean you must had a
good experience at the problem. You loved it?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Oh, except for the one I'm thinking about right now.
My junior prom. We thought we double dated one of
my best friends and I doubled it. We thought would
be a great idea, be fun if we didn't have
to drive all the way into Columbia and go to
like Salutas or something like that. We we took them
(21:53):
to a fish camp.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
They weren't impressed.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
No, no, they were the best dressed girls there, but
all the other people there, like just had just come
up for the boat landing from fishing all day at
Lake Murray. They didn't think it was funny. Great meal.
What if that restaurant still there, ever been there in
a while.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
I don't even remember the junior prom. I remember I
was not happy with my senior prom because I had
been dumped by my girlfriend about maybe a month or
less before the prom. Yeah, she broke up with me
and I had to go with the backup plan. And
(22:33):
it was complicated because the backup plan was was a junior.
I was a senior. The junior had made it pretty
clear just by her actions that she was whatever junior
high school love looks like, that's what she was with me.
I had little to no feelings for this person. But
(22:54):
then I was I was just like, crap. I already
rented the tucks, I paid for the tickets. I'd like
to go to the prom. Mary Ellen, you want to
go with me? Oh my god, yes, I never thought
you'd ask. And then the whole time she was like
all over me, and I was just like, this is
this is ridiculous, This is ridiculous. I'm like now trying
(23:18):
to flirt with other girls. It was a disaster. I
was way too immature. I was very immature and way
over my head and had a horrible night and then
that ended in a horrible breakup, which I'm sure I've
told the story at some point. But the ending of
the absolute ending of the relationship came at a keg
(23:41):
party about three weeks later, where I hadn't spoken to
her in several weeks. I had not returned her calls.
I was attempting an early form of ghosting, and they
we didn't have email and text messages and stuff. I
just was not returning the calls. And she saw me
at the keg party and she came up and she
was like, first she was insulting me. Then she went
and started making out with one of my other friends
(24:03):
because he was and he's not going to turn down
a free makeout session. And then she came back to
make sure that I had seen it, and my friend Pete,
who was very protective of me at the time and
was also a raging alcoholic at the time. Pete ended
up intentionally vomiting on her.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
And and that was really the end of it, because
I didn't I didn't defend her in any way. I
just kind of laughed and said, I told you to
stop coming around here looking like that.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
Yeah, cleavage full of vomit.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
It was like, it was so disgusting. And he said
my nickname was Benny back then. And as a long
