ticks area you just go to the Morning Rush blog.
In ninety seven five to w shows dot com. You'll
see that the word is catterwall cat c A c
at e r wa u.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
L oh, cattlewall. I know what this is. This is
it has to do with liquid. A cattlewall. It's it's
the best way to describe this. It's like a tide. Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
It's actually a shrill howling or whaling noise, which is
what I will sound like while I'm singing at the
Dylan Scott.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Might describe your cattlewall friends at home.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
He is like, what kind of catterwaller? Are you a cattlewaller?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I like it?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Yeah, So there you go. You have the answer. But
again it's on the morning rest plug ninety seven, cus dot.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
You don't have to wonder what you were thinking about
it together wrong when you were thinking about it like
I was thinking about it. Because you don't have to
think about it, because Kelly's alread thought about it. Let
me give it to you.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I was thinking when you were describing when you I
in my mind you said something like liquid, and I
was thinking you were thinking maybe kind of like in
the ocean with the surfers on that kind that's a.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Catterwall That's kind of the description ahead of mind, I
couldn't put it into words. Does that words didn't matter
because they were all wrong. That's okay, you can't be
all wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Jonathan Tomorrow, the President of the United States, and a
bunch of other world leaders are going to be at
the Vatican uh for the big funeral of the Pope
and apparently just overwhelming the internet right now. According to
this story. You can see it on the Morning Rust blog.
(02:32):
Are Pope merch. Pope merch is the hottest thing right now.
Really things like rosaries that look like the pope, Pope bobbleheads. Now,
there's some of these things that actually have been in
front of him, So like for thousands of dollars, you
(02:53):
can buy a hat that was blessed personally by the
Pope with a photograph.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Kind of like going to the masters and bringing back
one of those pimento hats. If you're going to be
at the ceremony, you could bring us back a pope hat.
A papal hat. Is that like the burger king thing
they wear and.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I was described here as a skull cap, but it
might be actually like the kind of hat that he wore.
Oh wow, I don't know. You could also get his
autograph that's selling for like five hundred dollars right now.
I didn't even know he gave autograph. They also have.
I don't know what this even means. Pope Francis trading
cards collect the entire set, I suppose, or does it
(03:32):
someme with like other popes is kind of like you
got the Jackie Robinson card, you got the Pope Benedict card.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Holy oil that was blessed by the pontiff.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Where is this being sold? He may.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
A lot of those types of stores.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Not on the property.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I don't know, Like a bust of the Holy Father,
that seems like something they would be selling there.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It does.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
They do have socks with his face on them. What
better way to say life well lived than celebrate it
with socks? People, socks, paple socks. Would you want any
of these things out of them?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It seems like would outrage some of the people that
will be there. You're merchandising off of the Pope. I mean,
do we need to bring in well the photo of
the roomy to start flipping tables over here?
Speaker 1 (04:27):
The photograph that I use in the story is from
twenty fifteen, and this is when they were selling in Washington,
d c. In anticipation of the Pope's visit which was
going to happen on August twenty seventh, twenty fifteen. The
Pope Francis bibbleheads and they said at that time they
sold out. Now the Pope Francis bibbleheads from that era
(04:50):
don't look like Pope Francis. The twenty fifteen Pope Francis
bibleheads don't look like the twenty twenty five he he
looks so much. It's different ten years later, it's really well,
almost recognize them.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It ages, you're worse than being the president you saw
Barack Obama. Aged. You've seen what happens under that kind
of pressure. The world is resting on your leadership. That's
got to have a serious.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I thought all that rested on the shoulders of Jesus.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
But no, not at all.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Interesting. So then you said that the street vendor sold out?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Was that in d C.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Washington, d C. Aug. Twenty seventh, twenty fifteen, they sold
approximately eighteen hundred bibbleheads that day?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Oh and they were angry they didn't know or to more.
Dang it. I see. Look and usually the street vendors
have never caught underwears. They do their research.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
What is the oddest promotional Now, you've had a lot
of promotion being in radio, So what is like one
that sticks out? Perhaps maybe a friend had it, or
you have it. Maybe we could talk about that.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Okay, that's good.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I don't off the top of my head. I can't
think of anything really odd like that that I've had
bibbleheads or whatever.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I can just think it looks than one the other
day in my office. It's a it's a whiskey flask.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
It's a suitable for your breast pocket of your jacket.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
And it is a pretty little poison War insider's promotional piece.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And it's not just printed on there, brother, it's it's
uh embosston leather.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Wow, they didn't spare any expense on that.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
I'm surprised somebody has stolen that out of my office.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Mm oh, miss Mary's not working here anymore. I'm just kidding, nobody.
Should you knew miss Mury she was a saint for God?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I don't though she might have lifted my funky col medina.
I had a bottle of it gone.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
That does seem like her style.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Every time I opened my door, I think about that.
How much money I could have gotten for that? On
I'm saving it.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
How much could you get for a bottle of funky
cole mediice?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I bet you can't even finally listed on eBay right now,
I could have set my own pride.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
That's how rare it is.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I was just waiting. It was a tone lok. Yes,
I was just waiting on a tone look to pass away.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Well he's not old, he's an age. He's like younger
than you. What do you do it you try to
kill off tone loco.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I like an anniversary for tone log or something. Put
it up there.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It was forty years ago. Today I would have Funky
Cold Medina. Point that women. So that was number one
if I remember right, like nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Oh is that right? I would have been coming up
on a great anniversary. I know that if somebody ripped
it out of my iHeart studio. Well secured? Well what
and well secured? I didn't have the door locked. I
don't lock the door. I don't have to lock my
doors around here.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
If it was nineteen ninety, we're now in the thirty
fifth anniversary of Funky col Medina being number one. But
if it was twenty excuse me, a nineteen ninety or
nineteen eighty nine, then you'd have to wait four more years.
It would be the fortieth anniversary. That's probably maximum. And
it's it's the Funky Cold Medina when it's aged forty
years like that in the original cask right, that's when
(07:55):
people really want it.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
That would that. I don't know how many things have
been stolen in my office, but that one really rubbed
me the wrong way. I got my suspicions as to
who did it. Oh, really, have you ever see him again?
I'm just going to yell at do.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
They work here?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Yeah, they still are?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
They know I ever seen him again? We yell out
across the parking lot. Where's my fuck? You call? Madana Bottle?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Could I call him T squared? Would I be in
the ballpark if I use the initials T squared?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Okay, that's what I was thinking as well, moving on Jonathan.
In the photoshop industry, it pays to get somebody who
knows what they're doing. Typically uh Chloe Kardashian, who has
had a litany of problems with photoshopping, including one time
where she photoshopped not just herself but her cat in
(08:48):
a way that failed tremendously. Now I think this is
professional photoshopping going horrifically wrong, because I can't imagine that
she did this herself. But Reddit has the before and afters,
and I guess she has a new perfume coming out
(09:10):
called Chloe in Wonderland. Okay, so somebody, I guess, took
a screenshot of the actual photo session that could They
showed it when she was shooting this on what's the
name of the show Keeping Up with the Kardashians. So
we have the actual, almost exact same angle that they
(09:33):
used for the perfume ad, and she looks like Chloe Kardashian.
When you look at the photo that they've put for
the ad Chloe in Wonderland, it's almost like she's Cindy
Crawford with like a deeper tan. I don't even understand,
(09:54):
like how they could even make this claim that this
would be Chloe Kardashian. That does not resemble Chloe Kardashian.
It doesn't even resemble her other than the pose that
she was in. But that is the ad and the
Internet is having a field day on it. Perhaps you
might have some personal experiences with photoshopping gone wrong, or
(10:16):
you like to just mock celebrities, we could maybe get
into that, or if you just want to laugh at
that side by side comparison, that's on the Morning Rest
blog at ninety seventy five to bus dot com. Any
more thoughts on photoshopping before we move along.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I had a live photoshopping experience happened the other day.
Sally has this one area, like in the closet where
there's two mirrors. They're like, you know, six foot mirrors,
framed mirrors, you know, like you put on the wall,
But these aren't on the wall. They just leaned up
against the wall and they're side by side. And I
was looking in one of the because I put a
(10:51):
tie on and I didn't get it quite right. You know,
you got to have the length of the tie just perfect.
And I'm looking in the mirror and I'm like, Okay,
that's it's got to be redone, so redo it. And
this time I just happen to step in front of
the other mirror and I'm like, wait a minute, I
don't look as good in this mirror.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
So I went back to the other mirror and I'm like,
what is up with this? One of them slims you?
I want you to pay for that mirror. I'm glad
we talked about this because she wasn't at home at
the time. I got to ask her by this, why
do we have the slimming mirror? And then the regular
mirrors or is that mirror the real mirror and the
other one's a fat mirror? Which one is it?
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I always joke with the like if I'm just doing
some sort of you know, shoot with a cameraman, I'm
always joking like, I'll give you an extra fifty for
the slim filter.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, get a slim filter.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I want that, you know, ten pounds off.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
The camera is supposed to add ten pounds. I want
ten pounds taken off by the camera right now. The
State of the Air report was released today from the
American Lung Association. Now, Jonathan, when you think, now this
was all done in twenty twenty four, is when they
measured the air. Okay, when you think of the dirtiest
(12:09):
air states, Well, first of all, let me ask you this,
who do you think would have the cleanest air because
they're so vigilant about having clean air.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I'm gonna say Seattle.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Okay, probably pretty high. Yeah, Portland, Yeah, because there's nobody
there either other than when they're burning tires in the
Is that where the mayor's wife loved.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
The it's a new perfum available, by the way.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, I can tell you that far and away the
most filthy state for air is California.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Los Angeles gotta.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Be no Baker's Field. It is the worst city in
America for air Vesalia number two, Fresno number three, Los
Angeles Long Beach number five, and at number six San Jose,
San Francisco, Oakland. So five of the top six worst
(13:05):
cities in America for dirty, filthy, stinking air.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Though you're going to say Century City is.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
The place, Well, that's part of Los Angeles. Yes, so
Los Angeles Long Beach metro it comes in at number five.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I remember stepping out of the car in Century City
about it going to a meeting.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
But this is like in the eighties or nineties.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
You were, yes, and I got out of the car
and the first words out of my mouth is, what
in the hell died here in this city? This smells
like a damn sewage dump.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yes, that was the joke that Johnny Carson made almost
every night, something about the smog and Los Angeles or whatever.
But they started that forty year war now where you
can't drive gas vehicles, you can't have a manufacturing plant
for sure, you cannot have coal burning anything. You can't.
I mean, I'm just the litany of things that go on.
(13:58):
They got rolling brown out in order to conserve energy
and kill the elderly. And with all that, they now
have six of the top or five of the top
six worst cities in America for air pollution.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Yeah, if you lived there long enough to have to
get on the ventilator, you're gonna die because elect Trusty
Rollot's going to unplug your ventilator.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I would imagine that the wildfires didn't help. I'm gonna
guess that it got worse. Probably not once they had
those wildfires. That's just my guess. I don't know. We'll
have to see how it measures out next year. But anyway,
in case you're wondering, other cities that made it Fairbanks,
Alaska number ten at number nine are Old Stomping Grounds,
(14:41):
the Cleveland, Akron, Canton markets, number eight, Houston, Pasadena, and
also Detroit and Eugene, Oregon is at number four on
the list. Eugene, Oregon, you wouldn't have thought Goodn't is
great Oregon? Well, And I wouldn't have thought anything in
(15:01):
Alaska either. I guess maybe that's maybe near where they
do all the oil drilling or something. I don't know,
but Oregon. Whenever I think of like clean air, I'm
thinking like north you'd be something about the winds and
just whatever. And it's kind of sparsely populated up there
in the Oregon area, but not enough for Eugene to
(15:24):
not figure out a way to make the air filthy.
So as they wag their fingers at people like us
down here in the South, uh huh. Don't see anybody
in the South.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
On this list, not even Birmingham, Alabama.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
None of our coal burning plants or any of that
got us in there problem. Ironic.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Isn't it something to do with the way that the
trough that was created from the coast all the way
to the mountain region and then Birmingham because he had
like a lot of steel manufacturing, had a problem. But
not anymore.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Last thing that I have on the Morning Rush blog, Jonathan,
is a story that came out today from realtor dot com.
South Carolina is now the most affordable state to get
a house in in America. Median income is sixty five
grand in our state, and the median price of a
home is three point fifty four. We do have I'm
(16:14):
expecting prices will start rising rather quickly because when you
look at things like, for example, population growth, we are
considered statistically to be the fastest growing state in America
right now. But then you look at how many building permits,
we're getting very low on the building permits, we're not
(16:35):
a lot of construction. Compare like, we're at two point three.
Compare that to North Carolina at six point four, Florida
is at twelve, and Texas is at fifteen. Also, we're
one of only four states that where the new construction
costs are actually less than a previously lived at home.
(16:57):
Usually you pay a premium for new construc direction in
South Carolina, Florida, Idaho, and California, it's less for a
new home in which indicates that the builders are not
spending enough on the actual neighborhood development. They're just building
(17:17):
homes the people want to live and previously lived homes
because the neighborhood quality. Now, those three states that I mentioned, Idaho, Florida, California,
those are usually well one Idaho is one percent cheaper.
Then we have one at like two point eight percent cheaper,
(17:38):
and the other one is a four percent cheaper. South
Carolina's discount eight point two percent. If you're willing to
move into a new construction home. So perhaps the builders
need to get more permits, and they also need to
actually start building out the neighborhoods a little bit nicer.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Gotcha.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
But the people are coming, they just don't have the house.
So we have a massive housing shortage in this state,
which I would assume if you're thinking of moving somewhere
in the state, do it now. Do it now, don't
wait the prices of good to get very expensive. And
our moral dilemma. Monday Question of the Day. We got
(18:17):
a young man. I'm sure he's very strapping, very handsome,
young fello out here, and he says, I need advice.
I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. My
boss is now trying to hook me up with his
daughter or her daughter. No, he uses the phrase about
(18:40):
blanking where you work, I don't or you eat. I
don't want to do this, no, but I don't know
how to tell her like I have, I don't want
to meet your daughter. It's the boss, and she's like,
you guys are going to get along great. And my
daughter's already seen your picture and she's very interested in
meeting you. How do I get out of this without
(19:00):
offending her.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, you're you're You can't back out now, she's already
but the hook's already set.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
The tra I see two options. One is I've already
begun dating a girl, or if they know you're not
dating anybody. I'm just not into girls. You got to
go that route. Girls are not really my thing.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
You've got a son.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
You've never seen me on the weekends. That's great. She
hasn't seen my photos on the weekends where I dress
like she does.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
You think she let me borrow that dress? That's already
that's great. All right, Hey, we got all that to
deal with Monday. Now, Hey, what's going on in your neighborhood?
We should be talking about what you got going on
for the weekend. And you know how to reach out
to us on social media. You can also email us.
I am rushing Seals dot.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Com Nash at ninety seven to five WUS dot com.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
A chance to win and trying to come up with
some of those that Pope merchandise. We could do the
double click for double for double prizes.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Maybe I'll get like I would like to take the
Pope socks, bobblehead and rosaries. Can I get can I
win all three?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
And can I just mention here at the end of
the podcast, this is.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
One with the hardest of the hardcores are listening.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Yeah, I might get some pushback on that. No, we
talked about it on the air before. I think it's
a little I know he's well protected. I think even
from a distance. Some of the scenes from the video
op scene. But they have the open casket for the pope.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
You don't like it.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I don't like it. I don't. I don't like the
open casket.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
For anybody, or just the Pope in particular.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Remember we were talking about people taking selfies. Sure, Randma
and Grandpa. Yeah, this is one step away from being
able to take a selfie with the Pope. He's laying
in his casket. I'm surprised with the marching. I said,
we don't have the opportunity.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Let me let me just google selfie with the pope.
I bit you. They're already on the internet selfies.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
The vendors have got a mock with the pope, exact
replica of the pope and the casket, and you take care.
Here we go, here we go, fury it.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Disrespectful mourners lining up to take selfies with the pope's corpse,
extending the cue for over eight hours as people are
trying to pay their respects and we've got thousands of
people trying to take selfies with them. One instagram saw
a woman smiling at the camera as she displayed the
pope clutching his rosary about ten feet behind her. His
(21:37):
body dressed in white and red papple paple cloa robe
symbolizing the love and the blood of Christ, can be
seen in the coffin, which lies on a raised platform.
Officials released photos of France's Okay, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I didn't even know that was going on. That was
my fear that that would start happening.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Oh my gosh, Yes, of course they're doing that. Look
at all my gosh, look at all these kids. This
is unbelievable. I got I got a picture, Jonathan. I'm
not even exaggerating at this point. This is a group
of one hundred people and every one of them has
their phone out in.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Front of the pope. See, this is why you can't
do that. Come on, he's the Pope. I a little
respect around here. Just put a picture close the casket
and put the picture. Well, he's the frame picture.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
He don't care.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
No, he does not care. Okay, so the pope. If
the Pope don't care, why do I ca?
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah, you're making it your business. Like from the This Mornings.
It wasn't a moral dilemma, but we had that playing out.
Some people said, stay in your lane, Jonathan, stay in your.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Lane, especially since I'm Lutheran. Yeah, old you will talk
about respect for the pope and you're a Lutheran.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
You're deceased of the people who put their filthy shoes
and whatever on the door. And they said, here's our complaints,
here's our grievances.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
L oh, cattlewall. I know what this is. This is
it has to do with liquid. A cattlewall. It's it's
the best way to describe this. It's like a tide. Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
It's actually a shrill howling or whaling noise, which is
what I will sound like while I'm singing at the
Dylan Scott.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Might describe your cattlewall friends at home.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
He is like, what kind of catterwaller? Are you a cattlewaller?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I like it?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Yeah, So there you go. You have the answer. But
again it's on the morning rest plug ninety seven, cus dot.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
You don't have to wonder what you were thinking about
it together wrong when you were thinking about it like
I was thinking about it. Because you don't have to
think about it, because Kelly's alread thought about it. Let
me give it to you.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I was thinking when you were describing when you I
in my mind you said something like liquid, and I
was thinking you were thinking maybe kind of like in
the ocean with the surfers on that kind that's a.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Catterwall That's kind of the description ahead of mind, I
couldn't put it into words. Does that words didn't matter
because they were all wrong. That's okay, you can't be
all wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Jonathan Tomorrow, the President of the United States, and a
bunch of other world leaders are going to be at
the Vatican uh for the big funeral of the Pope
and apparently just overwhelming the internet right now. According to
this story. You can see it on the Morning Rust blog.
(02:32):
Are Pope merch. Pope merch is the hottest thing right now.
Really things like rosaries that look like the pope, Pope bobbleheads. Now,
there's some of these things that actually have been in
front of him, So like for thousands of dollars, you
(02:53):
can buy a hat that was blessed personally by the
Pope with a photograph.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Kind of like going to the masters and bringing back
one of those pimento hats. If you're going to be
at the ceremony, you could bring us back a pope hat.
A papal hat. Is that like the burger king thing
they wear and.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I was described here as a skull cap, but it
might be actually like the kind of hat that he wore.
Oh wow, I don't know. You could also get his
autograph that's selling for like five hundred dollars right now.
I didn't even know he gave autograph. They also have.
I don't know what this even means. Pope Francis trading
cards collect the entire set, I suppose, or does it
(03:32):
someme with like other popes is kind of like you
got the Jackie Robinson card, you got the Pope Benedict card.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Holy oil that was blessed by the pontiff.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Where is this being sold? He may.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
A lot of those types of stores.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Not on the property.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I don't know, Like a bust of the Holy Father,
that seems like something they would be selling there.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It does.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
They do have socks with his face on them. What
better way to say life well lived than celebrate it
with socks? People, socks, paple socks. Would you want any
of these things out of them?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It seems like would outrage some of the people that
will be there. You're merchandising off of the Pope. I mean,
do we need to bring in well the photo of
the roomy to start flipping tables over here?
Speaker 1 (04:27):
The photograph that I use in the story is from
twenty fifteen, and this is when they were selling in Washington,
d c. In anticipation of the Pope's visit which was
going to happen on August twenty seventh, twenty fifteen. The
Pope Francis bibbleheads and they said at that time they
sold out. Now the Pope Francis bibbleheads from that era
(04:50):
don't look like Pope Francis. The twenty fifteen Pope Francis
bibleheads don't look like the twenty twenty five he he
looks so much. It's different ten years later, it's really well,
almost recognize them.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It ages, you're worse than being the president you saw
Barack Obama. Aged. You've seen what happens under that kind
of pressure. The world is resting on your leadership. That's
got to have a serious.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I thought all that rested on the shoulders of Jesus.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
But no, not at all.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Interesting. So then you said that the street vendor sold out?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Was that in d C.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Washington, d C. Aug. Twenty seventh, twenty fifteen, they sold
approximately eighteen hundred bibbleheads that day?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Oh and they were angry they didn't know or to more.
Dang it. I see. Look and usually the street vendors
have never caught underwears. They do their research.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
What is the oddest promotional Now, you've had a lot
of promotion being in radio, So what is like one
that sticks out? Perhaps maybe a friend had it, or
you have it. Maybe we could talk about that.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Okay, that's good.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I don't off the top of my head. I can't
think of anything really odd like that that I've had
bibbleheads or whatever.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I can just think it looks than one the other
day in my office. It's a it's a whiskey flask.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
It's a suitable for your breast pocket of your jacket.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
And it is a pretty little poison War insider's promotional piece.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And it's not just printed on there, brother, it's it's
uh embosston leather.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Wow, they didn't spare any expense on that.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
I'm surprised somebody has stolen that out of my office.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Mm oh, miss Mary's not working here anymore. I'm just kidding, nobody.
Should you knew miss Mury she was a saint for God?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I don't though she might have lifted my funky col medina.
I had a bottle of it gone.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
That does seem like her style.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Every time I opened my door, I think about that.
How much money I could have gotten for that? On
I'm saving it.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
How much could you get for a bottle of funky
cole mediice?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I bet you can't even finally listed on eBay right now,
I could have set my own pride.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
That's how rare it is.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I was just waiting. It was a tone lok. Yes,
I was just waiting on a tone look to pass away.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Well he's not old, he's an age. He's like younger
than you. What do you do it you try to
kill off tone loco.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I like an anniversary for tone log or something. Put
it up there.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It was forty years ago. Today I would have Funky
Cold Medina. Point that women. So that was number one
if I remember right, like nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Oh is that right? I would have been coming up
on a great anniversary. I know that if somebody ripped
it out of my iHeart studio. Well secured? Well what
and well secured? I didn't have the door locked. I
don't lock the door. I don't have to lock my
doors around here.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
If it was nineteen ninety, we're now in the thirty
fifth anniversary of Funky col Medina being number one. But
if it was twenty excuse me, a nineteen ninety or
nineteen eighty nine, then you'd have to wait four more years.
It would be the fortieth anniversary. That's probably maximum. And
it's it's the Funky Cold Medina when it's aged forty
years like that in the original cask right, that's when
(07:55):
people really want it.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
That would that. I don't know how many things have
been stolen in my office, but that one really rubbed
me the wrong way. I got my suspicions as to
who did it. Oh, really, have you ever see him again?
I'm just going to yell at do.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
They work here?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Yeah, they still are?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
They know I ever seen him again? We yell out
across the parking lot. Where's my fuck? You call? Madana Bottle?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Could I call him T squared? Would I be in
the ballpark if I use the initials T squared?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Okay, that's what I was thinking as well, moving on Jonathan.
In the photoshop industry, it pays to get somebody who
knows what they're doing. Typically uh Chloe Kardashian, who has
had a litany of problems with photoshopping, including one time
where she photoshopped not just herself but her cat in
(08:48):
a way that failed tremendously. Now I think this is
professional photoshopping going horrifically wrong, because I can't imagine that
she did this herself. But Reddit has the before and afters,
and I guess she has a new perfume coming out
(09:10):
called Chloe in Wonderland. Okay, so somebody, I guess, took
a screenshot of the actual photo session that could They
showed it when she was shooting this on what's the
name of the show Keeping Up with the Kardashians. So
we have the actual, almost exact same angle that they
(09:33):
used for the perfume ad, and she looks like Chloe Kardashian.
When you look at the photo that they've put for
the ad Chloe in Wonderland, it's almost like she's Cindy
Crawford with like a deeper tan. I don't even understand,
(09:54):
like how they could even make this claim that this
would be Chloe Kardashian. That does not resemble Chloe Kardashian.
It doesn't even resemble her other than the pose that
she was in. But that is the ad and the
Internet is having a field day on it. Perhaps you
might have some personal experiences with photoshopping gone wrong, or
(10:16):
you like to just mock celebrities, we could maybe get
into that, or if you just want to laugh at
that side by side comparison, that's on the Morning Rest
blog at ninety seventy five to bus dot com. Any
more thoughts on photoshopping before we move along.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I had a live photoshopping experience happened the other day.
Sally has this one area, like in the closet where
there's two mirrors. They're like, you know, six foot mirrors,
framed mirrors, you know, like you put on the wall,
But these aren't on the wall. They just leaned up
against the wall and they're side by side. And I
was looking in one of the because I put a
(10:51):
tie on and I didn't get it quite right. You know,
you got to have the length of the tie just perfect.
And I'm looking in the mirror and I'm like, Okay,
that's it's got to be redone, so redo it. And
this time I just happen to step in front of
the other mirror and I'm like, wait a minute, I
don't look as good in this mirror.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
So I went back to the other mirror and I'm like,
what is up with this? One of them slims you?
I want you to pay for that mirror. I'm glad
we talked about this because she wasn't at home at
the time. I got to ask her by this, why
do we have the slimming mirror? And then the regular
mirrors or is that mirror the real mirror and the
other one's a fat mirror? Which one is it?
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I always joke with the like if I'm just doing
some sort of you know, shoot with a cameraman, I'm
always joking like, I'll give you an extra fifty for
the slim filter.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, get a slim filter.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I want that, you know, ten pounds off.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
The camera is supposed to add ten pounds. I want
ten pounds taken off by the camera right now. The
State of the Air report was released today from the
American Lung Association. Now, Jonathan, when you think, now this
was all done in twenty twenty four, is when they
measured the air. Okay, when you think of the dirtiest
(12:09):
air states, Well, first of all, let me ask you this,
who do you think would have the cleanest air because
they're so vigilant about having clean air.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I'm gonna say Seattle.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Okay, probably pretty high. Yeah, Portland, Yeah, because there's nobody
there either other than when they're burning tires in the
Is that where the mayor's wife loved.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
The it's a new perfum available, by the way.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, I can tell you that far and away the
most filthy state for air is California.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Los Angeles gotta.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Be no Baker's Field. It is the worst city in
America for air Vesalia number two, Fresno number three, Los
Angeles Long Beach number five, and at number six San Jose,
San Francisco, Oakland. So five of the top six worst
(13:05):
cities in America for dirty, filthy, stinking air.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Though you're going to say Century City is.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
The place, Well, that's part of Los Angeles. Yes, so
Los Angeles Long Beach metro it comes in at number five.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I remember stepping out of the car in Century City
about it going to a meeting.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
But this is like in the eighties or nineties.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
You were, yes, and I got out of the car
and the first words out of my mouth is, what
in the hell died here in this city? This smells
like a damn sewage dump.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yes, that was the joke that Johnny Carson made almost
every night, something about the smog and Los Angeles or whatever.
But they started that forty year war now where you
can't drive gas vehicles, you can't have a manufacturing plant
for sure, you cannot have coal burning anything. You can't.
I mean, I'm just the litany of things that go on.
(13:58):
They got rolling brown out in order to conserve energy
and kill the elderly. And with all that, they now
have six of the top or five of the top
six worst cities in America for air pollution.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Yeah, if you lived there long enough to have to
get on the ventilator, you're gonna die because elect Trusty
Rollot's going to unplug your ventilator.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I would imagine that the wildfires didn't help. I'm gonna
guess that it got worse. Probably not once they had
those wildfires. That's just my guess. I don't know. We'll
have to see how it measures out next year. But anyway,
in case you're wondering, other cities that made it Fairbanks,
Alaska number ten at number nine are Old Stomping Grounds,
(14:41):
the Cleveland, Akron, Canton markets, number eight, Houston, Pasadena, and
also Detroit and Eugene, Oregon is at number four on
the list. Eugene, Oregon, you wouldn't have thought Goodn't is
great Oregon? Well, And I wouldn't have thought anything in
(15:01):
Alaska either. I guess maybe that's maybe near where they
do all the oil drilling or something. I don't know,
but Oregon. Whenever I think of like clean air, I'm
thinking like north you'd be something about the winds and
just whatever. And it's kind of sparsely populated up there
in the Oregon area, but not enough for Eugene to
(15:24):
not figure out a way to make the air filthy.
So as they wag their fingers at people like us
down here in the South, uh huh. Don't see anybody
in the South.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
On this list, not even Birmingham, Alabama.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
None of our coal burning plants or any of that
got us in there problem. Ironic.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Isn't it something to do with the way that the
trough that was created from the coast all the way
to the mountain region and then Birmingham because he had
like a lot of steel manufacturing, had a problem. But
not anymore.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Last thing that I have on the Morning Rush blog, Jonathan,
is a story that came out today from realtor dot com.
South Carolina is now the most affordable state to get
a house in in America. Median income is sixty five
grand in our state, and the median price of a
home is three point fifty four. We do have I'm
(16:14):
expecting prices will start rising rather quickly because when you
look at things like, for example, population growth, we are
considered statistically to be the fastest growing state in America
right now. But then you look at how many building permits,
we're getting very low on the building permits, we're not
(16:35):
a lot of construction. Compare like, we're at two point three.
Compare that to North Carolina at six point four, Florida
is at twelve, and Texas is at fifteen. Also, we're
one of only four states that where the new construction
costs are actually less than a previously lived at home.
(16:57):
Usually you pay a premium for new construc direction in
South Carolina, Florida, Idaho, and California, it's less for a
new home in which indicates that the builders are not
spending enough on the actual neighborhood development. They're just building
(17:17):
homes the people want to live and previously lived homes
because the neighborhood quality. Now, those three states that I mentioned, Idaho, Florida, California,
those are usually well one Idaho is one percent cheaper.
Then we have one at like two point eight percent cheaper,
(17:38):
and the other one is a four percent cheaper. South
Carolina's discount eight point two percent. If you're willing to
move into a new construction home. So perhaps the builders
need to get more permits, and they also need to
actually start building out the neighborhoods a little bit nicer.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Gotcha.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
But the people are coming, they just don't have the house.
So we have a massive housing shortage in this state,
which I would assume if you're thinking of moving somewhere
in the state, do it now. Do it now, don't
wait the prices of good to get very expensive. And
our moral dilemma. Monday Question of the Day. We got
(18:17):
a young man. I'm sure he's very strapping, very handsome,
young fello out here, and he says, I need advice.
I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. My
boss is now trying to hook me up with his
daughter or her daughter. No, he uses the phrase about
(18:40):
blanking where you work, I don't or you eat. I
don't want to do this, no, but I don't know
how to tell her like I have, I don't want
to meet your daughter. It's the boss, and she's like,
you guys are going to get along great. And my
daughter's already seen your picture and she's very interested in
meeting you. How do I get out of this without
(19:00):
offending her.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, you're you're You can't back out now, she's already
but the hook's already set.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
The tra I see two options. One is I've already
begun dating a girl, or if they know you're not
dating anybody. I'm just not into girls. You got to
go that route. Girls are not really my thing.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
You've got a son.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
You've never seen me on the weekends. That's great. She
hasn't seen my photos on the weekends where I dress
like she does.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
You think she let me borrow that dress? That's already
that's great. All right, Hey, we got all that to
deal with Monday. Now, Hey, what's going on in your neighborhood?
We should be talking about what you got going on
for the weekend. And you know how to reach out
to us on social media. You can also email us.
I am rushing Seals dot.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Com Nash at ninety seven to five WUS dot com.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
A chance to win and trying to come up with

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Maybe I'll get like I would like to take the
Pope socks, bobblehead and rosaries. Can I get can I
win all three?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
And can I just mention here at the end of
the podcast, this is.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
One with the hardest of the hardcores are listening.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Yeah, I might get some pushback on that. No, we
talked about it on the air before. I think it's
a little I know he's well protected. I think even
from a distance. Some of the scenes from the video
op scene. But they have the open casket for the pope.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
You don't like it.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I don't like it. I don't. I don't like the
open casket.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
For anybody, or just the Pope in particular.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Remember we were talking about people taking selfies. Sure, Randma
and Grandpa. Yeah, this is one step away from being
able to take a selfie with the Pope. He's laying
in his casket. I'm surprised with the marching. I said,
we don't have the opportunity.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Let me let me just google selfie with the pope.
I bit you. They're already on the internet selfies.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
The vendors have got a mock with the pope, exact
replica of the pope and the casket, and you take care.
Here we go, here we go, fury it.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Disrespectful mourners lining up to take selfies with the pope's corpse,
extending the cue for over eight hours as people are
trying to pay their respects and we've got thousands of
people trying to take selfies with them. One instagram saw
a woman smiling at the camera as she displayed the
pope clutching his rosary about ten feet behind her. His
(21:37):
body dressed in white and red papple paple cloa robe
symbolizing the love and the blood of Christ, can be
seen in the coffin, which lies on a raised platform.
Officials released photos of France's Okay, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I didn't even know that was going on. That was
my fear that that would start happening.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Oh my gosh, Yes, of course they're doing that. Look
at all my gosh, look at all these kids. This
is unbelievable. I got I got a picture, Jonathan. I'm
not even exaggerating at this point. This is a group
of one hundred people and every one of them has
their phone out in.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Front of the pope. See, this is why you can't
do that. Come on, he's the Pope. I a little
respect around here. Just put a picture close the casket
and put the picture. Well, he's the frame picture.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
He don't care.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
No, he does not care. Okay, so the pope. If
the Pope don't care, why do I ca?
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah, you're making it your business. Like from the This Mornings.
It wasn't a moral dilemma, but we had that playing out.
Some people said, stay in your lane, Jonathan, stay in your.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Lane, especially since I'm Lutheran. Yeah, old you will talk
about respect for the pope and you're a Lutheran.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
You're deceased of the people who put their filthy shoes
and whatever on the door. And they said, here's our complaints,
here's our grievances.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Oh boy, now I gotta go back in.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
I'm all the firms.
