(00:01):
It is time for Johnny Wilde inthe morning on Big ninety seven to nine,
Will Kevin Bacon returned to Footloose HighSchool forty one years later. So
the school is Payson High School inPayson, Utah. That's where the movie
was shot over forty years ago,and it's students have spent the last several

(00:21):
months launching a social media campaign hashtagBacon to Payson to get Kevin Bacon to
visit for prom. The Today Showwas on site Friday, and here's some
audio from the students in the interviewthey did. This is Kevin Bacon's longer.
Can you walk down these halls andnot think about the movie? No?

(00:43):
When I walked down the halls,I feel like I'm in the movie.
How much work have you put intothis campaign? Well, basically this
whole year has been the full Looshyear. What would it mean to you
guys if Kevin Bacon showed up everythingand just because of all the work we've
put in, I think it justwould be so unforgettable, Like we made
big difference on me able to getIM gonna starting to come back to facing
like that's insane, all right?And then the Today Show was live and

(01:06):
the school gym on Friday, andhere's when they announced that Kevin Bacon was
live on video chat. Everybody,they are going absolutely berserk. What's going
on facing high school? I havebeen so impressed with everything that's been going
on there. I don't need tosay it, but the movie and Pays

(01:29):
in high School was a big partof my life. And I've been amazed
at the work that all of youhave been putting into this with the you
know, the musical and the flashmobs and the recreations, and it hasn't
gone unnoticed by me. It's reallyinspirational. So thank you, thank you,

(01:49):
and here it comes. I'm gonnacome, I gotta come. Yes's
time. That such a cool moment. And today said they will be there
for prom and we'll be following alongfor sure. I love stuff like this.
I think everybody does. And thatis wild out you are in the

(02:17):
morning stupid news. A couple inGeorgia were arrested after being found passed out
drunk on the beach. Now,their biggest problem was their kids, ages
five and seven. Oh. Theywere at a nearby hotel swimming in the

(02:38):
pool unsupervised. Mommy and daddy passedout on the beach. Yeah. Parents
of the Year right there. Andthis story is almost too I don't know
if I want to use the wordgood, but it's just too much to
believe. But it's real. Isaw the video. Here's the headline.

(03:00):
Woman takes shower on zoom in frontof funeral service by accident. Yep,
it might be time to watch thatzoom tutorial again. A church funeral was
held in North London and a zoomcall was set up for people who could
not attend. So this woman openeda zoom leak before the service to follow

(03:23):
what was going on, not realizingher camera was on. The mother of
two stripped naked and hopped in theshower, unaware that her camera was broadcasting
to just about everyone. Oh snap, and they had a large screen in
front of a packed church full ofmourners. She later showed up at the

(03:47):
wake unaware what had happened. Canyou just hear the minister asses to asses,
dust to dust, And that isstupid news. Johnny Mild in the
Morning on Big ninety seventy nine.So I've had this weird pain in my

(04:09):
hamstring for a couple of months.It's like an ice pick has been jammed
into the back of my leg.Now my feet are tingling and getting numb.
Driving is the worst. So anyway, the doc says, you can't
keep waiting, You've got to goget an MRI. Just hearing that makes
me break out into a sweat andmy heart starts pounding. I hate MRIs

(04:32):
with a passion. The older Iget, the more clauster frobic I get.
Last time I had one, Iliterally almost went full hulk and busted
out of that thing. I almosttold the doc, well, you're just
gonna have to amputate my leg causeI ain't getting in that tube of fear.
But that's stupid, right, Solast night I go to the imaging

(04:56):
place. My wife drives me thirtyminutes before I take an X which pretty
much did nothing, by the way, And as the tech is putting me
in the tube, she says,Oh, what kind of music do you
want to barely hear through the headphonesbecause it's so muffled. And I said,
let's do country or classic rock,your pick. I'm in the tube

(05:17):
already starting to panic, and Ihear this song start and I'm thinking,
oh, I think I know thissong, And then she pops through my
headphones. Okay, mister Wild,just relax. This first scan is just
five minutes, so I'm kind ofbreathing and you know, I'm looking up

(05:39):
and it's starting to freak me outa little bit. Well, then I
concentrate on the lyrics of the songplaying. Wait Wild, hold on,
stop seriously, this is the firstsong going to the spirit? Where is

(06:01):
the sky? Why is this thefirst song? Did my why put her
up to this? Yeah? Yeah, that's real funny? What's next?
Like if I die young? Orlive like you're dying of sunshine? This
is Johnny Wild in the Morning onBig ninety See No Goes New Country.

(06:27):
Let's do it all right, people, I have a harmless election story.
Let's all see the ridiculousness in thisamazing. I have to put a disclaimer
on that. A thirty five yearold math teacher in Dallas just announced he's
running for president after changing his nameto quote literally anybody else. First name

(06:49):
is literally middle name anybody, andlast name is else. The Texas judge,
who did not find it funny,ultimately signed off on the name change,
so it's official. He even gota new driver's license. Mister Else,
now has the task of getting enoughvotes to even get on state by
state ballots. Well, good luckwith that. You know, it's a

(07:12):
good thing. He's not a doctor. Can you just hear the page paging
doctor else, doctor, literally anybodyelse for surgery? Boy, that would
send you running for the exits.Where's the parking lot? Bullies do better
in life. There's new research thatsays this that people who are bullies in

(07:35):
school are now more successful in life. And they did this research over decades.
They make more money, have higherjob satisfaction, and they have the
more desirable jobs. But listen,kids, this is not an excuse to
be a bully. You can benice but still be very confident. Anyway,
they found a strong link between aggressivebehavior at school and higher earnings in

(07:59):
later life. They conclude that classroomsare a competitive place and that children adapt
to win with win competition with aggression, and then they take that to the
workplace, where they continue to competeaggressively for the best paid jobs. Well,
of course bullies are richer. Theygot all our lunch money. Here's

(08:20):
a mom sending her to our kidto school after hearing this, have an
aggressive day at school, Timmy,So you can support us when we're older.
That's right, my big alpha dog, you go get them roof.
Come on now, y'all, geton up with Johnny Wilde in the morning,
a big ninety seven nine. Yeah, man, that's the best time.

(08:43):
Now for one of my favorite features, the good stuff, the good
happy news of the day. Youknow, I was surprised, and maybe
I shouldn't be, and I foundhoping this. A poll has found that
eighty four percent of Americans will goout of their way to pay it forward
whenever they can. Yeah. Theaverage person estimates they have five generous random

(09:07):
acts of kindness moments a week,which is about two hundred and sixty a
year. Okay, this is good, even if some people are fudging that
number a little bit. Look,we need this. My wife and I
have always said, if each personwould just help one other person out,
how much better would the world be. And a side note to that,
my mother just told me a fewdays ago she had a lot of dental

(09:31):
work done and it was rough,and the dental tech followed her home after
this procedure just to make sure shegot there safely. And then one of
the other ladies at the office wentand picked up her prescription for her delivered
it with an arrangement of flowers.You know, my mom's almost eighty and

(09:54):
my brother was out of town visitingus here in Colorado. So that just
hip my heart really good. Andthat's the good stuff right there, that's
the good stuff. Keep it up, people, we can do it big.
Ninety seventy nine, so the DOJin more than a dozen states filed
a blockbuster lawsuit against Apple over analleged iPhone monopoly so Apple could be made

(10:20):
to open up the iPhone technologies likeI message with Android phones, and for
US iPhone snobs, there's nothing worsethan being in a group chat and then
one random person gets added and hasan Android phone. I'm mess it all
up. Oh no, it's sostuck up, isn't it? Yus?

(10:41):
The restaurant reservation fee. Some ofyour finer restaurants are now charging anywhere from
twenty five to fifty bucks per personfor a reservation. Now, if you
do show up, the money isapplied to your bill. That's cool.
If you don't or someone in yourparty doesn't show, you lose that deposit.
I can just see them doing likea minimum food order. Now you

(11:03):
must eat this much food to dinehere. And then some dude with a
megaphone is walking around, Hey,hey, this table's you're not eating enough
food. Start piling it on people. And then I saw that some restaurants
and New York are charging a kitchenfee. Patrons are not having it.
We gotta make it stop, rightburning Sunshine, this is it Johnny Wild

(11:26):
in the Morning on Big ninety seventynine, Noko's new Country Trader Joe's up
the price of a banana for thefirst time in twenty three years, and
people just well, they kind oflost their minds. Yep, it went
up from nineteen cents to twenty threecents. That's only four cents, but

(11:48):
it's a twenty one percent bump.One quote overheard, Hey up your price
would a banana? So yeah?Now if that rotisserie chicken from Costco goes
up, oh there's gonna be mutemeey. Here are the top ten dog
names for twenty twenty four. I'llgo quick from number one all the way

(12:11):
down. All wait, that doesn'tmake sense. Let's go backwards. Let's
go ten to one. Merced's atten, then Bailey, Milo Max at
seven. Let's see Daisy so cute, at number six, Cooper, Lucy
Bella, Charlie. And at numberat number one, does anybody know that

(12:33):
voice anymore? Here comes number one. It's Luna. Yep, Luna.
All of those are pretty cute.I have to say. Well, the
Titanic door sold for big bucks.Yeah, the one that Leo couldn't hold
on to yet saved the life ofKate Winslet was sold at auction seven hundred

(12:54):
and eighteen thousand bucks almost seven hundredand nineteen grand. The second highest piece
of memorabilia sold was Harrison Ford's whipfrom the Indiana Jones Temple of Doom just
over half million. You know,I still think she could have fit Leo
on that on that door. Iknow there's been some debate about that.

(13:20):
I don't no. James Cameron saysthat they've done tests and it wouldn't have
saved his life. What piece ofmovie Memboravillia would you love to have as
your own? I want to beburied in Spock's casket. You know,
it was a torpedo that the Enterpriseturned into a casket in Star Trek two.
That's what I want. Seriously,can somebody make that happen Johnny Wilde

(13:43):
in the Morning on Big ninety sevento nine. Well, we know that
social media and anything online can justbe a breeding ground for bozo's and that's
putting it lightly. Here are somekeyboard knuckleheads. These people people actually made
these comments online like this. Whydo the women's never have to take a

(14:07):
DNA test to see if it's theirchild? Hmmm? Next one, is
there any sort of book subscription forkids that exist where you order books and
then once you read them, youreturn them maybe to a place and get
more. I believe that's called alibrary. Okay, here's one. I

(14:35):
don't know what the topic was,but the comment was this, I love
it when my husband tickles me witha bird leaf. A bird leaf I
think she means feather. And finally, this gym. Why is there a
need for farmers growing corn and beansthey sell at the farmer's market when most

(14:56):
people just go to King Soupers orSafeway to get groceries. Okay, yes,
these people live among us. Yeah, man, that's the goodest.
So I thought we'd start with thiswhen it's a little different. Sean Penn,
the actor helped make Vans the Shoea huge brand by wearing a parrot

(15:20):
in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.And recently, the owner of Vans ran
into Sean at a restaurant in Hawaii. He thanked him and paid for his
dinner, which is nice, towhich Penn responded, yes, a very
grateful spacoli. There here is areal life iron man. Yeah, that's

(15:48):
really not what he does, butthank you. For the past ten years,
a Brooklyn, New York man namedJames Hook has been setting up his
ironing board at a local bar onMonday night at eight pm and he irons
people's clothes for them. He sayshe does it out of the kindness of
his heart at a time when publicservices are being stripped away from us left

(16:11):
and right, and he does thisafter working a full time job. Hook
brings his ironing board from home andirons as many as twenty garments. Yes,
I know, or he'll do lessif he's pressed for time. If
he's doing your pants or his shirt. He even has a courtesy robe you

(16:33):
can wear while he's working. Onepatron says, none of it feels weird
or out of place at all.It all comes off very natural. Oh
that that was a female well,that's one way to get the ladies out
of their clothes. That's the gist. And this is Big ninety seven to

(16:56):
nine. Well, next time thisstar does a concert in you know,
Denver, you might see him onthe light rail. I'm Johnny Wilde.
I'm Big ninety seven to nine.Let's get to the hollywild Report. Let's
do it. Billy Joel has givenup the helicopter ride, which he did
for years, and he now takesthe Long Island Railroad into New York City

(17:19):
when he has a concert to playat Madison Square Garden. The train,
yeah, Billy says quote. Peoplewill sometimes look at me on the railroad
and think, look at this guytrying to look like Billy Joel. Who's
he kidding? Can you imagine somesnarky New Yorker hey singas desol mister Piedo

(17:41):
man. That just is amazing.I love that. So when you think
Tim McGraw, I hope you thinkof Caitlin Clark. Now she's almost a
household name. And at his concertin Des Moines, he showed up on
stage and a number two two jerseyin honor of the University of Iowa basketball

(18:03):
star that now holds the all timeNCAA scoring record. Way to go win
the crowd before you even open yourmouth. Jack Black is ready for a
School of Rock sequel, but onlyif the original writer, Mike White is
involved. That'd be cool. Speakingof School of Rock, will Kevin Bacon

(18:25):
return to the Footloose High School forprom forty one years later? I've got
that in Wild Sound around seven fortyfive. It is a must here.
Stick around for that for sure.And that is the Hollywild Report. I
woke up again this moment Big ninetyseven nine Mornings with Johnny mild So the

(18:48):
term office goggles is trending. It'slike beer goggles, where you think someone
is hotter than they really are,but instead of alcohol, it's caused by
repeated expos to the same person atwork every day. Oh, and be
especially careful if you're hitting up halfyhour at some point. Office goggles and

(19:10):
beer goggles. Ooh, that's adangerous combo. Now, hiring a Wiener
connoisseur, Actually we need we needthat to be announced. Now, hiring
a Wiener connoisseur to measure hot dogsat all thirty MLB parts. They want
the length girth, sure, that'sappropriate to say for a hot dog and

(19:33):
wait for each one. Yeah,you'll get to taste test dozens of hot
dogs, but they really don't carehow good they are. They just want
you to measure each weenie to seewhich major league club has the biggest and
smallest. Wow, this is aweird story. It's not a full time
gig, but they'll buy all thegame tickets, travels covered and you get
to twenty five hundred bucks. BestBurger. Oh, one more thing.

(19:59):
My wife and I use our ourfavorite gift every couple of weeks. It's
the girl getting dozens of hot dogsthrown interface And yes it's always funny.
Okay. Best burger in Colorado Reader'sDigest voted it, and I agree.
It is Cherry Cricket in Denver andthey have a Littleton location. Cherry Cricket

(20:23):
is great. I don't know whythere's not a no colocation. Fat Sully's
as tight as my faith too.That is delicious. Burger and fries always
my go to meal. Johnny Wildein the Morning on nine Stupid News,
Well, this is just terrible.A Pennsylvania school is now apologizing after fifth

(20:48):
graders received a homework assignment where theyhad to pretend to be white slave masters.
I know this is shocking. Hereis Kenneth Poole, the parent of
one of the students, explaining thedetails of the homework assignment. We got
an assignment in our daughter's schoolwork folder. It was titled Auctions Winnings to the

(21:11):
Highest Bidder, and it was anassignment wherein the fifth graders were supposed to
portray slave masters and identify what qualificationsthey wanted in their slaves. How does
any teacher that doesn't want to getfired think this is a solid homework assignment.

(21:33):
I don't know if the school shouldapologize or just shut down. Insane.
Here's school story number two. AMichigan teacher says she was fired because
of the rap career that she wasworking on outside of the school, so
she had a rap gig. Here'sDominique Brown, whose rap name is Drippin'
Honey. Yeah, she's talking aboutwhy she ended up getting fired from her

(21:59):
teaching position. Take it away,dripping Honey. Nobody knew I was a
rapper until the parent kept continuously complainingdripping motime, baby going crazy like the
eighties. The first meeting that Ihad was like the principal dund And they
had told me that the parent wishedto stay anonymous, and she felt as
if she didn't like my rap careerand that I was a bad influence on

(22:21):
the kids because I rap. Mymind in my heart was telling me two
things. I'm just I couldn't seemyself giving up my other passion just because
somebody didn't like it. They say, you race all your content. That
was automatic, race all your content. I'm just like, respectfully, I
can't do that. Do the kidshave to say in the morning when she
walks in, Good morning, missdripping honey. I mean, maybe we

(22:44):
don't know right, and that isstupid news. It's a big morning show
with Johnny Wilde on Big ninety sevennine. Maybe Dave Fraser could pick up
on this vibe. I think hemight be able to I'm Johnny Wilde,
I'm Big ninety seventy nine. Itis time for wild sound. So Adam
Krueger is the chief meteorologist at CWthirty nine in Houston, and he's got

(23:08):
some skill. He excels at sneakingsilly song lyrics into his weather reports,
and he flawlessly mixed in Beyonce's TexasHold Him. I'll play that for you
in a sec. He's also Dondolly Parton, Morgan Wallen, Kenny Chesney,
George Strait. Let's check out hisweather report with Beyonce thrown in there

(23:32):
Kan well out West, This ain'tTexas, ain't no hold him. Hey,
look at this. We've got alot of brain. Continuing again today
in southern California, here's a liveyou at Babe's Beach. Park your card
through your keys up and stick aroundat the beach today and really through the
rest of the week. It lookslike there's some great weather. Oh usually
this time of morning, it's aslow commute, but you add some fog
to the mix and it's a reallife boogie. It's a real life holdown
to try to get to your location. Oh my gosh, are you kidding

(23:53):
me? Wow? That is prettyimpressive though. And that, my friends,
is wild sound. It's a bigmorning show with Johnny Wilde on Big
ninety seven nine. Taylor Swift andTravis Kelsey had a little retreat. They
got away, but they spent eighteengrand a night. This is a luxury

(24:18):
Bahamas hideaway. It's called the RosalitaHouse. It is a six bedroom,
eight bathroom mansion located on a stripof beach in the Bahamas called Harbor Island.
The Rosalita House is currently available torent for eighteen grand a night,
just so you know, so it'saffordable, right. The sprawling estate comes

(24:41):
with a luxurious private pool, blossominggardens, a fitness center and course stunning
ocean views. It is said tobe fit for privacy. We'll come back
to that in a minute. Theluxury escape comes with okay, ready for
this count these people a chef andhis as instant, a house manager,

(25:03):
three butlers, three housekeepers up Iran out of fingers, three garden and
beach maintenance employees and a security guardat night. Good grief. Rosalita House
also comes with private peak sand beaches, and it's a stone throws away from
the island's town center as some ofthe most high end restaurants in the Bahamas,

(25:26):
you know, like Applebee's, theirfancy like that. So while staying
on the island, guests have accessto a thirty two foot power bolt with
a personal captain to take you aroundthe island. Of course, there are
photos of them making out in theocean, probably taken by the butler.
I know it was the third butlerthat did it too. He just looked

(25:48):
like a little creeper in a tuxedoif you ask me. We have a
friend that when he stays at theBroad Moor in Colorado Springs, he plays
a game called stump the broad Morebecause you know, they're famous for their
concierge going above and beyond to pleasethe guest. He'll call down and ask
for you know, like a vintagerecord player in Frank Sinatra's first album,

(26:12):
or a bowl of three hundred andtwenty one red Eminem's chilled to forty five
degrees. He says, it works. Johnny Wilde in the morning on Big
ninety seven to nine. Hey,y'all know I like to talk like Luke
Brian. Right, I'm Johnny wildI'm Big ninety seven to nine. Listen.
AI is even better and thus thisstory. Tennessee just passed the Ensuring

(26:38):
Likeness, Voice and Image Security Act, which prohibits using AI to mimic someone's
voice without their permission. So thisis pretty groundbreaking. Luke Bryan called it
quote an amazing precedent, and thismakes sense why he was quoted. Last
week, I played audio of afunny bro country song that stereotypes country music

(27:04):
for people who hate country music,and then a few days later I found
out it was an AI voice ofLuke Bryan. Let's enjoy it again before
we get sued for playing it.Shrug, jeans, beer, Girl,
Creek boots, truck, tan legs, trained dog Beer, Dixie Chill,
that's got a beer in my beerand a Chevy and my trug got a

(27:26):
dog at the wheel, foot offjeans, truck, dirt road, five
Road, Deer Moon Live, Red, White and Blue dr Friday Night,
Fish, baked Tail, gave smalltown y'all bink song, whiscus shot Bass,
Southern drawl, Red dirty Man,Farm of a Wide Beer beer beer,

(27:47):
and I'm pout of mob cried,got a pier, my beer and
a Chevy, and my trug gota dog at the wheel, cut off
jeans and uh the drug. Iwas seriously singing that song all last week.
But that's an AI voice of LukeBryan, and he wasn't too happy
about that. So I actually thinkthat's a really good law that passed.

(28:10):
We we can use AI for otherstuff, but not for anything like that.
I'm Johnny Wild Kill. Are killJohnny Wild in the morning? Oh,
TikTok. Sometimes I wish you'd justget banned already. Time for wild
sound and this Jim. A newtype of guilt just dropped on TikTok.

(28:33):
It's called sunshine guilt. It's basicallywhen you feel guilty that you don't want
to spend time outside on a beautifulsunny day. Here's some goofy millennial explaining
the concept. I'm experiencing sunshine guiltright now. It is an abnormally beautiful
day outside, but I'm tired.Okay, So now I feel this pressure

(28:56):
to go outside and go for awalk and enjoy the weather while it lasts.
I can't enjoy myself indoors now becausethe whole time I'm thinking that I
should be outside. So basically myday is ruined. I think we need
to come up with a whole newguilt. Millennials have ruined society guilt.

(29:17):
I can say that because I havethree millennial kids and I tease them all
the time. Okay, here's akid who has got it figured out.
He knows how to basically get whathe wants. Daddy can have a bull
of ice cream. No, it'salmost time forbid. Ah, don't let
this happen to you. Okay,I'm going to teach you how to get
what you want from your parents.Let's do it again, Beddy, I

(29:42):
already miss you today. Can wehave a bowl of ice cream and talk
about va? Oh yeah, buddy, for sure you want to figure out
what's important to your parents. Wow, dude, that was sharp. That
kid's got maybe CEO in his future. Very very good advice, Ladies and

(30:03):
Jommy Johnny Wild in the Morning,ninety seventy nine
