Your wild in the morning. Okay, time now for the dumb stuff,
stupid news. And this A twinof Albuquerque, New Mexico says she and
her four year old granddaughter were watchingthe Taylor Swift eras tour film when an
(00:21):
intruder suddenly appeared in the dining roomof her home. That's a class three
felony at least right interrupting Taylor Swift. I think so the intruder was fleeing
police after crashing a stolen vehicle.Well, he left the home, but
then he came back inside the firsttime. Should have been a good teaching
(00:43):
moment to show granddaughter how to usedead bolts. I think. Anyway,
grandma grabbed her gun and shot thesuspect when he re entered her home.
She's not facing any charges. Theintruder did survive, and he'll be charged
with burglary and auto theft. Idon't know about you. I just want
to know what song Taylor was on. Probably this one What You Made Me
(01:08):
Do, What You Me to?Or maybe it was this one. No,
not that, oh, I knowthis one we got Yep, that's
it, and there you go.That's stupid news. Come on, now,

Stuff we didn't get to. Yeah, it's stuff we just didn't get to.
Well, maybe you've heard of nomeat May. That's not anywhere on
my radar. This might be.Have you heard of no mow May?
The idea behind no mo may isthat you won't mow your lawn for the
(01:53):
entire month, which means the crasswill grow, lawn flowers will bloom,
and native bees will emerge from hibernationand beast on a local pollen, which
is very important. You know,if you choose to participate, you might
want to let your neighbors know.And if you have an HLA, make
sure you're not gonna get fined forextremely tall, unseenly brass. So there
(02:17):
you go. Are you tired ofsending your mother flowers or a lousy greeting
card on Mother's Day? Why notsend her a potato? A company called
Potato Parcel is offering a twenty percentdiscount on their Mother's Day potato messages.
Yes, they send a potato witha message in it on it in a
(02:38):
box to your mother. Uh,I think they missed out on four to
twenty they could have sold potatoes withthe message let's get baked bro. So
this company was featured on Shark Tankseveral years ago. I don't know if
they got a deal. I can'timagine. But now it's fully operational at
Potato Parcel dot com. Or youcan have a photo of your face printed
(03:00):
on the potato. The instructions areeasy. One cut a hole in the
box. Two, put your taterin that box. Three make her open
the box. And that's how youknow it right there. Hoy everyone,

(06:29):
is Star Wars Day. May theFull be with you, So it is
time for Wild Sound. And thispiece of audio is part of the Wild
Sound Hall of Fame. And Ipicked it for today because this is a
kitchen drawer that sounds like Chewbacca.Ready, this is her wookie drawer because
(06:54):
it sounds like Chewbacca. Love it? Wow? Yeah, for sure.
When guests come to their house,do you think their little kid says,

my little hometown girl, even thoughshe stacks the cups in the dishwasher as
it worked so well, When didyou realize the person you were dating was
dumb? Ah, I'm Johnny,I'm big naty seventy nine, Thanks for
(07:45):
listening, Noko. So Reddit askedthis, when did it dawn on you
that the person you were with ordating just wasn't very bright. Some of
the responses are hilarious, and oneof them is she stacked the cups in
the dish washer. One of myexes thought north was just whichever direction you
were facing. At the time.She was thirty two. She won a
(08:11):
lot of these are girls. Sorry. She once told me that trash men
had an easy job because they onlywork one day a week. When I
ordered buffalo wings and she tried oneand said, oh, this tastes just
like chicken. Oh, ladies,I'm sorry I didn't preview these well enough.
(08:31):
They're all about you. Here's anotherguy. I once dated, a
girl who didn't know how to heatup soup from a can. M When
I got yelled at for buying groundbeef at the grocery store because I was
supposed to get hamburger meat instead.Okay. And then there's another one here
(08:54):
when he was angry that the Ohit's a guy, when that's good?
He was angry the bank was closedfor Martha Luther King Day, the lesser
of the King family. Martha whenshe tried to hammer a screw into the
wall to hang a picture, Yep, that didn't work too well. And
(09:16):
one more, she used the leafblower to clean the inside of the house.
What I might have to try?That's that that actually might work.
I thought my wife might be dumbwhen she agreed to second date with me.
Turns out she's pretty dang smart.Johnny Wilde in the morning time to
(09:39):
get into Wild Sound. Oh.In this piece of audio, I think
it's gonna go down in the WildSound Hall of Fame. It's an AI
generated gospel choir singing about chick fila. Yes, I think this is
where AI is going to shine andmake me happy. Sometimes. I really
should bring in Reverend Brown from comingto America to introduce this clip. Ladies
(10:03):
and gentlemen, here's my pastor,Reverend Brown. Yes, sir, I
want you to put your hands togethernow for God's choir gon sing about those
blessings of chickfi lay yes, sir, and the lords lemod Oh, yes,
sir, bless chickfla these team blessinga candy. That's right now,
(10:31):
mind sisters, chick for LaaS nowevery day. I'm right. Oh wow,
(11:05):
that was absolute beauty. Imagine ifyou were the person working with whatever
AI program and you typed what youwanted and you know it did its thing
and spit that out, you wouldliterally think that came from above. Big
nineties in a nine Mornings with JohnnyWiles, It's gonna be sunshine and sixty
(11:28):
eight all across no code. Sowhat are you serious? Is the draft
still going on? Did you guyshear that or is that just in my
head? Maybe it's in my head. I've been hearing it all weekend because
there were three days of the draftand apparently it's still going. Speaking of
there was a CSU player drafted,let's talk about that. Let's do it.
(11:50):
Big things you need to know soyou can sound smart at work today.
Yes, CSUS Mohammed Kamara drafted inthe fifth round by the Dolphinscher and
Enuseum signed free agent contracts after thedraft with teams, so good for them.
Let's see a lot of this issports. Yeah, Avalanche win big
(12:11):
yesterday. They go up three gamesto one. Valerie Nishushkin gets his first
hat trick and on that goal fromcenter ice, he didn't even look and
he made it. It was incredible. And if you're wondering what they do
with all those hats, no,they don't show up half price in the
team store. The Denver Rescue Missiongets those hats. So a lot of
(12:37):
people part with some expensive hats,but it goes to a good cause.
Nuggets Game five is tonight in LA. We just need to dispose of the
Lakers and move on already. That'dbe nice, right, so there's a
decent chance that the dude sitting inthe cubicle next to you is wearing seven
year old underwear. Gross. Right, it's the average length of time us
(13:01):
guys hang on to our undies beforewe buy new ones. Ladies, we
might need your help on this.Just jump in and fix that. Let's
hope they get washed regularly at leastso these days, a lot of grandparents
don't want to be called grandma andgrandpa. I know we didn't. We're
G Daddy and G Mama. Nanaand Papa are the most popular grandparent names,
(13:26):
and then for grandma, also onthe list, gig that's cute,
Nana, Mimi, and then there'sPoppy and Pops and Poppy with an eye.
I wanted to be big Poppy,but that didn't work so well.
Yes, I have seven grandkids.This weekend it was just me and two
grandsons, and yeah, they droveme crazy. I'll play the audio of
(13:50):
them bickering and fighting and me aboutto lose my mind, So be here
for that. Here we go,Johnny Wilde in the morning seven nine.
Appreciate you listening here on Monday morning. I'm kind of glad it's Monday,
because over the weekend it was gEddy Weekend camp. I had two of
my grandsons here, z Man isten and Camo Camden is seven, and
(14:16):
so my wife was out of town, so it was just the three of
us. And they're great boys.I love them, but my gosh,
sometimes they just do not get alongwith each other and they will fight and
bicker over everything. We've got thislittle nerf hoop that's hanging on the back
side of the front door, andthey're playing basketball, and I finally started
(14:37):
recording them. Listen, guys,we stop it. Nobody's left. I'm
(15:07):
surely not saw. I mean,it was absolute mayhem at times, and
I wanted to just send them toplay in traffic, but I couldn't really
do that. But anyway, they'regood kids. I love them. Stupid
news. Okay, this might beone of the dumbest stories we've had recently,
(15:28):
and we've had a lot of stupidones. Designer jeans that look like
you wet your pants. This isfor real. A new line of Jordan
Luca jeans have become infamous in thefashion world. They have a dark stain
in the groin area of the pantsand obviously it looks like you've either spilled
a drink or worse, had anaccident. I had an accident. So
(15:52):
if that's not dumb enough, theprice is even worse. Eight hundred dollars
a pair, and oh they're soldout online. What would make anybody want
to wear a pair of pants thatmake you look like you've tinkled? Tinkle
is such a fun word, isn'tit. That's what my mom made us
say. We couldn't say pee.I don't know why I said that,
(16:15):
but seriously, eight hundred bucks froma fair of jeans that looked like you
paid yourself. Hey, look asBilly Peter's pants. What's wrong with people?
They're idiots? Yeah, no doubt, And that is stupid news.
With Johnny Wilde in the morning everymorning home be he's in a nine.
(16:36):
Yeah man, that's the best,all right? Two law enforcement stories Furst
A quick one before the really goodone. A deputy in Pueblo helps this
teen with his tie before prom.This high school student stopped by the Sheriff's
office for some help with tying histie. They can be difficult. Detention
(16:57):
Deputy Jared Jansen responded quickly and expertlycrafted the perfect not for the student.
Then they discovered his tags are expiredby a year. No, I made
up that last part. But thatis really nice though. And why he
thought to go by there, Ihave no idea. All right, here's
the heart tug one right here.Twenty four years ago. I love this
(17:22):
story. A cop in Indiana namedJeene Esther saved a baby boy after someone
abandoned him in a cardboard box.Now they're in the news after Jean found
out the kid grew up to becomea cop himself. He's twenty four now.
His name is Matthew. He isa rookie with the same police department
(17:45):
Jeane works for. Here they aretelling the story. We've received a call
three students who lived in an apartmentcomplex had found a box for the baby
in it, and we responded tothat. I was the investigator on call
that evening, and from that pointhe was taken to child for detective Services.
So I had no information is whattranspired after that date. That's probably
why I ended up where I amnow. Well, Well, matt was
(18:07):
going through his field training. Hewas with an officer who I had served
with, and I got a callone evening from that officer who said,
you remember the case twenty three yearsago, and I said, I remember
it distinctly. He says, he'ssitting next to me. I said,
who he's sitting next to me?He's my rookie. Oh man, you're
killing me with the fields. That'sthe gest Wow. I love this gather
(18:34):
around boys and girls of old ages. It's time for wild animal stories.
So last week it was elephants thathad escaped and running all over the place
in Montana. This week, justimagine seeing this on your way to work,
four zebras escaped from a trailer andran down a highway near Seattle.
(18:56):
This happened on Sunday. It wasall over social media. So what happened
was a private owner was transporting thesezebras to Montana. I guess to meet
up with the elephants. I don'tknow when they escaped. Witnesses said drivers
helped keep the zebras from running ontothe highway, and citizens in the neighborhood
(19:17):
also helped corral them in a localresidence yard. It was mayhem, what
is happening? Oh my god,please get away. Hi, Maddy.
We were looking at a bunch ofzebras eating grass on the side of the
off ramp. The cars on theoff ramp pulled over by the guardrail and
lined up really close to kind ofmake a makeshift fence to keep them from
coming up onto the off ramp.I've only ever seen them in a zoo,
(19:37):
so that was the first suit.Must be a joke that just started
hanging out in the grass in somebody'syard. Oway here across the street,
I called, so I found themissing zebras. They're in my yard.
Not sure what to do? Canyou imagine? Best of all, they
had brought in a fifteen year oldrodeo clown veteran, and he had been
(19:57):
driving home from a cab in WashingtonState when they heard about the loose zebras
and stopped out to help. Andas of the other day, three had
been captured, but one was stillon the loose. How does he fit
a bunch of zebras in his littlerodeo clown car? I wonder? And
does anyone under fifty even know thismusic? I don't think so, ladies
(20:19):
and gentlemen, Johnny Wild in themorning nine. A study shows that the
new most dreaded word at work tohear is hey, Hey, Apparently,
the word can trigger a fight orflight response, which can lead to employees
thinking about the worst case scenario likeoh, jeez, what now, what
(20:41):
do you need me to do thatyou don't want to do. So listen
to this compilation and imagine you're hearingit at work as hey, hey,
hey, what do you y I'mnot hey, hey, hey, yeah,
(21:04):
I just broke out in hives blahblah. Johnny Wilde in the morning
on Big ninety seven nine, I'mJohnny wild You've probably heard of the five
love languages. But did you knowthere are five stress languages? Oh?
Yes, and we all speak oneor more of these. But knowledge is
(21:25):
power. So knowing how you respondto stress, and you know, letting
those close to you know how yourespond to stress, that can eliminate some
nasty confrontations. Plus they're just funto know. There's the imploder. They
freeze in a stressful situation, feelhopeless, helpless, paralyzed. The exploder
(21:48):
has an inflated reaction to a stressfulsituation, may get irritated, frustrated,
angry, or may simply leave.The fixer respond distress with people, pleasing,
mothering, and appeasement. The numberthis is probably not good numbs themselves
to the outside world with drugs,alcohol, overworking, over exercising, gaming,
(22:15):
et cetera. Then there's the denierpractices toxic positivity and response to stress,
and is often overly optimistic to avoidreality. Oh look, rainbows and
unicorns. Yeah, I'm not likethat. I'm I think I'm somewhere between
imploder and exploder and maybe some fixer. I don't know. I like my
(22:36):
wife's exploder. She exploder. Don'ttell her I said that though. All
right, thank you very much.Good morning. Come on now, y'all,
you know with Johnny Wilde in themorning on Big ninety. I can't
believe this. That emergency slide thatfell off of a Delta passenger jet late
(22:56):
last week right after takeoff. Oh, it's reported turned up. It landed
outside the home of an attorney whosefirm is currently suing Boeing over safety issues.
What are the odds? Attorney JakeBissell Links, whose firm filed suit
against Boeing over the blown outdoor incidentlast January, discovered the deflated slide washed
(23:22):
up outside of his ocean front homein Belle Harbor, Queens. This is
just I can't even some workers fromDelta were able to retrieve the slide and
haul it away. Talk about evidencefalling right into your lap. You know
what do you bet? He addspublic littering to the charges. Also,
(23:44):
oh my goodness, KFC, whatare you thinking? They've launched their own
perfume. It is dubbed number elevenOO well done, number eleven UDQ.
Yes, KFC's brand new friend,Fagrance, claims to have a classic barbecue
experience at every bottle. Creators sayyou'll notice a hit of smoky wood and
(24:07):
a dash of charcoal. This oneof a kind Fragrance is guaranteed to leave
you practically tipsy, with hunger andanimals probably chasing you. It's only fourteen
bucks a bottle. All the proceedsgo to the KFC Charitable Foundation. The
only beeffil new apply with a bastingbrush. Number eleven E the bibic Ye,
(24:33):
and there you go. That's thestupid Nies Johnny Wild ninety seven nine.
Well, a billionaire is building Titanictwo. It's a replica of the
one that sank in nineteen twelve.Yeah, you know, the one where
Rose could have saved Jack and lethim up on that door, but she
(24:53):
didn't. Early designs reveal the boatwill accommodate around twenty three hundred passengers.
The rich dude that is building thiswas asked why. He literally said,
it's a lot more fun to dothe Titanic than it is to sit at
home and count my money. Thispart is also true. Third class passengers
will be treated to stew and mashat long tables in a communal dining room,
(25:18):
just like they were on the originalship, though a spokesperson said other
meals will be available for those whowant a less authentic experience. Oh that's
nice, so maybe a Guy Fieriburger bar or something. And a new
survey reveals that forty two percent ofAmericans support the government's potential TikTok band.
Probably all parents frustrated that their kidsspend hours on the app. Matter of
(25:40):
fact, as an iheartstation, weare required to play this PSA, Please
listen. Are you aware of thedangers lurking on your child's phone? Very?
TikTok, the addictive app that's captivatingyoung minds everywhere, may not be
as harmless as it seems. TikTokpromotes cyber bullying, inappropriate content and even
(26:02):
data privacy concerns. It's time totake action protect your children from the negative
influences of TikTok. Together, let'smake us stand for a safer online environment.
Sincerely, Instagram, Facebook, andYouTube. All right, there you
go. Those are the big thingsyou need to know. And you old

big ninety seventy nine Mornings with JohnnyWilde. Yeah, man, that's the
guest. All right, here wego, so follow along. This ends
well okay. Declared dead by doctors, the body of an eighty year old
Indian man was taken from the hospitalto where his morning relatives had gathered,
(26:49):
food was laid out, wood hadbeen collected for his funeral. Then the
ambulance hit a pothole. You thinkwe've got bad pot holes here in northern
Colorado ate, nothing like India.His grandson, who was with him in
the ambulance, noticed that after slamminginto this pothole, he was moving his
(27:10):
hand. The ambulance driver headed tothe nearest hospital, where the doctors declared
him alive. It's yeah, andthe man's like II five right, bob,
bob, what's up? Man?Goodness? See you not so stiff
this time? Much better? Look, Hey, beers are on you,
(27:32):
brother, and that is the goodstuff. That's the good stuf. A
big ninety seven nine. Now they'rearound, boys and girls of old ahes.
It's time the wild animal stories.A pet kitty survived a week without
food or water after being accidentally shippedoff in an Amazon return box by its
(27:57):
owners. Wow, Utah resident CarrieClark first noticed that Galina, her cat,
had gone missing around April tenth.They had a frantic search of the
neighborhood for any side of the cat. A week later, an Amazon warehouse
worker in California, California, youknow, she clocked into her shift,
(28:18):
started opening return packages and out popsus a cat. The box was one
of those try before you buy andfilled with steel toed work boots. So
the worker took the cat to avet who read the microchip and identified the
owner in Utah checked this out.I got the most amazing, insane news
(28:41):
in the entire world. I justcouldn't even believe that she was in California.
I thought it was a prank.Like I still still hard to wrap
my brain around. She was trappedin an Amazon package, and it was
in this really big sized Amazon package. We had no idea, So Matt
took the chackage to the drop offwithout nor dear Cat was inside. Oh,
(29:02):
somehow it's gonna all be his fault. I'm afraid pretty soon somebody somewhere
is going to receive a pair ofwork boots from Amazon and say, Wow,
why do these smell like cat pee? You only need to get up
and get gold clone out, geton up with Johnny Wilde in the morning
on Big ninety seven to nine.Oh, Johnny wild I'm Big ninety seven
to nine. Hello Noko, thanksfor having me on this morning. So
(29:26):
a survey shows the average adult onlyhas three true friends they can rely on,
while most people claim to have sixteenfriends and appear to have dozens,
if not hundreds, on social media. Of course, about fifty percent admit
most of those people are just kindof acquaintances. The study also found the
(29:47):
typical adult is left with only threeclose friends and we lose touch with an
average of thirty six people over theyears. More than half poled that their
busy lifestyle was the main reason for, you know, failing to keep in
touch with old friends, and fourout of ten people say they've just drifted
apart. Meanwhile, My wife Katis the exception to this rule. Just
(30:14):
this past weekend, she was ona girl's weekend with twelve of her high
school friends. They spent the wholeweekend in close quarters. No issues,
no arguments, no cat fights,nothing, she told me. Twenty seven
years and thirty offspring later, theystill consider each other their closest friends.
(30:36):
I think that's so cool, soneat, so happy for her. Oh
and it doesn't stop there. Thoseare her Philly friends. Then she's from
high school. Then she's got elementaryand middle school friends from Pittsburgh, and
then a whole different set of collegefriends from CU and now of course her
work friends. Me. I don'ttalk to any of my Arkansas school buddies.
(30:57):
I have it in decades. Recently, though, I've been, you
know, getting in touch with someof my old radio cronies, and that's
nice. But it's good to stayin touch with at least a few people.
I should have done a better job. I'm a bad I'm a bad
friend. Hopefully I've still got time. Otherwise it'll just be my wife's friends
(31:18):
at my funeral. I guess,hey, you're all invited. If something
happens, I'm Johnny Walla on Bigninety seven to nine, Good Morning,
Stupid News. A couple came backfrom a three week trip to Switzerland.
I want to go there so bad, and they noticed that T Mobile build
them one hundred forty three thousand dollarsfor using nine point five gigabytes of roaming
(31:45):
data while overseas. Wow, fiveto ten gigabytes is considered average for one
month. But when you're roaming andoverseas, oh yeah, it costs thousands
of dollars each day on this trip. This totally happened to us on a
cruise in January. Now, wedidn't get dinged one hundred and forty three
grand, but it was still nearlyfour hundred bucks, and I was angry.
(32:08):
We had no clue. I stilldon't know what we did wrong.
It was weird. Let's see mansets tree hugging record. There's a dude
studying forestry in Alabama. He seta world record for the most hugged trees
in an hour, hugging one thousand, one hundred twenty three trees at Tuskegee
(32:30):
National Forest. The record attempt requiredthat he wrapped both of his arms around
each tree in a close embrace withoutcausing any damage to the trees. I
don't know if legs were involved too. Tree no, no tree could be
hugged more than once. He averagednineteen trees per minute, and he easily
(32:53):
surpassed the minimum requirement of seven hundredtrees to have establish the record. He
just kept going. He now sayshe's engaged to a sycamore, so good
for him. Johnny Wilde in themorning, hot dogs saved a guy's life
in Omaha. Those tornadoes were intense. They destroyed his house, but he's
(33:19):
okay. He was out buying hotdogs at a gas station when it happened.
Here is Jason talking about it.You know, I was at the
gas station getting hot dogs and itsaved my life. So hot dogs saved
my life. You know, accountyour blessings. Be glad. There's no
fatalities in the neighborhood I heard,and families saved. Stuff can be replaced,
but family's everything. Amen. Wow, that is crazy. I know
(33:42):
there's a saved by a Wiener jokein there somewhere, but I'm not well,
wait a minute, I guess Ijust did it. Sorry. Tomorrow
an incredible story about a cop savinga baby boy who is now his new
rookie recruit decades later. It's agreat story. Make sure you're here for
that. That's the gist on Bigninety seventy nine. Well, I guess
(34:07):
the end of yolo and lmao havealready happened. Yeah, they're lame now,
and we're gonna have to use theseinstead. I'm Johnny Wilde. So
someone pulled gen zers and asked themto name the most outdated acronyms that they
think are cringe now. For example, LOL, which I'm sure you and
I we love that, we loveLOL on anything. Oh no, that's
(34:30):
at the top of the list.If you text it to someone in their
early twenties, they'll instantly think you'rean outdated boomer, even if you're not.
Sorry, but I'm not going tostop using lol now instead of lmao.
You know what that means. You'resupposed to write ijbol ijbol. I've
(34:52):
never even seen this. It isshort for I just burst out laughing,
all right, that's legit. Stopusing rofl. That is short for rolling
on the floor laughing. Well,I never started that one, so I
can't stop stop calling things fire.That's already lame, and I just started
(35:15):
using that one. Lit is backin style. Now that is lit man.
We can't call things gross anymore.According to gen Z ers, you
gotta call them ick. Now,this one makes sense. Never say just
give me the four to one one. No one under forty knows that that's
the number for directory assistance. Thatmakes no sense to them. Instead,
(35:38):
you're supposed to say, what's thetea? Or hey, spill the t
man, that's dumb. Finally,stop calling crazy people cray In two thousand
and twenty four, their delulu.Do you know what delulu means? Delusional?
(35:59):
Yeah, so there you go.By the way, I asked my
five gen Z millennial kids what theythought about all of this, and my
twenty six year old responded, hesaid that slaps. I'm like, what
he I guess that is the newsubstitute for gr and the number eight what.
I can't keep up with this?Whatever man, Johnny Wilde in the
(36:21):
morning on Big ninety seven nine.Let's do it all right? How about
the big things you need to notice? Sounds smart at work? A new
poll found the number one thing atthe perfect hotel we must have really fast
Wi Fi. We can't just goon vacation we've got to have Instagram and
TikTok and be able to surf.Also, a king sized bed, smart
(36:44):
TV, nearby attractions, a restaurantin the building is nice unless it stinks.
And a fitness center but come on, who you fooling? You're not
gonna go. I barely go either. What happened to vibrating beds? Remember
those? Here's how fast your passwordcan be cracked. In twenty twenty four,
(37:05):
even just a nine digit number wouldtake them only about six minutes.
Basic passwords can be cracked instantly.Okay, So they say you gotta start
mixing in upper lower case letters.Special symbols like exclamation points will help a
lot. Yeah, this is kindof scary. If if you had that
(37:28):
nine character password with all that,it would take almost five hundred years to
crack four hundred and seventy nine tobe exact, okay, And if you
were extra careful and crazy and upto eighteen characters, they say it would
take nineteen quintillion years. That's noteven a real number. Come on,
(37:50):
yesterday, we learned audio emojis arecoming to phone calls. Google Phone specifically,
they're rolling out the audio emoji,which plays sound while you're talking on
the phone. There's six of them. They're coming out with like clapping,
the rimshot, drum roll, crying. People. Listen to me. This
(38:10):
is what I do on a dailybasis. You don't need this on your
phone. I got your rim shot. Yeah, I've got your applause.
See hey, they're not gonna havean air horn. I got you there.
I've even got Homer Simpson drops.God, you're hilarious. So listen.
(38:30):
Leave this to the professionals. Please, that's the way it needs to
be. Good morning. Come onnow, y'all, get on up with
Johnny Wilde in the Morning on Bigninety seven nine
Your wild in the morning. Okay, time now for the dumb stuff,
stupid news. And this A twinof Albuquerque, New Mexico says she and
her four year old granddaughter were watchingthe Taylor Swift eras tour film when an
(00:21):
intruder suddenly appeared in the dining roomof her home. That's a class three
felony at least right interrupting Taylor Swift. I think so the intruder was fleeing
police after crashing a stolen vehicle.Well, he left the home, but
then he came back inside the firsttime. Should have been a good teaching
(00:43):
moment to show granddaughter how to usedead bolts. I think. Anyway,
grandma grabbed her gun and shot thesuspect when he re entered her home.
She's not facing any charges. Theintruder did survive, and he'll be charged
with burglary and auto theft. Idon't know about you. I just want
to know what song Taylor was on. Probably this one What You Made Me
(01:08):
Do, What You Me to?Or maybe it was this one. No,
not that, oh, I knowthis one we got Yep, that's
it, and there you go.That's stupid news. Come on, now,
you know with Johnny Wilde in themorning on Big ninety seven nine.
(01:32):
Stuff we didn't get to. Yeah, it's stuff we just didn't get to.
Well, maybe you've heard of nomeat May. That's not anywhere on
my radar. This might be.Have you heard of no mow May?
The idea behind no mo may isthat you won't mow your lawn for the
(01:53):
entire month, which means the crasswill grow, lawn flowers will bloom,
and native bees will emerge from hibernationand beast on a local pollen, which
is very important. You know,if you choose to participate, you might
want to let your neighbors know.And if you have an HLA, make
sure you're not gonna get fined forextremely tall, unseenly brass. So there
(02:17):
you go. Are you tired ofsending your mother flowers or a lousy greeting
card on Mother's Day? Why notsend her a potato? A company called
Potato Parcel is offering a twenty percentdiscount on their Mother's Day potato messages.
Yes, they send a potato witha message in it on it in a
(02:38):
box to your mother. Uh,I think they missed out on four to
twenty they could have sold potatoes withthe message let's get baked bro. So
this company was featured on Shark Tankseveral years ago. I don't know if
they got a deal. I can'timagine. But now it's fully operational at
Potato Parcel dot com. Or youcan have a photo of your face printed
(03:00):
on the potato. The instructions areeasy. One cut a hole in the
box. Two, put your taterin that box. Three make her open
the box. And that's how youknow it right there. Hoy everyone,

Sound Hall of Fame. And Ipicked it for today because this is a
kitchen drawer that sounds like Chewbacca.Ready, this is her wookie drawer because

dumb? Ah, I'm Johnny,I'm big naty seventy nine, Thanks for
(07:45):
listening, Noko. So Reddit askedthis, when did it dawn on you
that the person you were with ordating just wasn't very bright. Some of
the responses are hilarious, and oneof them is she stacked the cups in
the dish washer. One of myexes thought north was just whichever direction you
were facing. At the time.She was thirty two. She won a
(08:11):
lot of these are girls. Sorry. She once told me that trash men
had an easy job because they onlywork one day a week. When I
ordered buffalo wings and she tried oneand said, oh, this tastes just
like chicken. Oh, ladies,I'm sorry I didn't preview these well enough.
(08:31):
They're all about you. Here's anotherguy. I once dated, a
girl who didn't know how to heatup soup from a can. M When
I got yelled at for buying groundbeef at the grocery store because I was
supposed to get hamburger meat instead.Okay. And then there's another one here
(08:54):
when he was angry that the Ohit's a guy, when that's good?
He was angry the bank was closedfor Martha Luther King Day, the lesser
of the King family. Martha whenshe tried to hammer a screw into the
wall to hang a picture, Yep, that didn't work too well. And
(09:16):
one more, she used the leafblower to clean the inside of the house.
What I might have to try?That's that that actually might work.
I thought my wife might be dumbwhen she agreed to second date with me.
Turns out she's pretty dang smart.Johnny Wilde in the morning time to
(09:39):
get into Wild Sound. Oh.In this piece of audio, I think
it's gonna go down in the WildSound Hall of Fame. It's an AI
generated gospel choir singing about chick fila. Yes, I think this is
where AI is going to shine andmake me happy. Sometimes. I really
should bring in Reverend Brown from comingto America to introduce this clip. Ladies

AI program and you typed what youwanted and you know it did its thing
and spit that out, you wouldliterally think that came from above. Big
nineties in a nine Mornings with JohnnyWiles, It's gonna be sunshine and sixty
(11:28):
eight all across no code. Sowhat are you serious? Is the draft
still going on? Did you guyshear that or is that just in my
head? Maybe it's in my head. I've been hearing it all weekend because
there were three days of the draftand apparently it's still going. Speaking of
there was a CSU player drafted,let's talk about that. Let's do it.
(11:50):
Big things you need to know soyou can sound smart at work today.
Yes, CSUS Mohammed Kamara drafted inthe fifth round by the Dolphinscher and
Enuseum signed free agent contracts after thedraft with teams, so good for them.
Let's see a lot of this issports. Yeah, Avalanche win big
(12:11):
yesterday. They go up three gamesto one. Valerie Nishushkin gets his first
hat trick and on that goal fromcenter ice, he didn't even look and
he made it. It was incredible. And if you're wondering what they do
with all those hats, no,they don't show up half price in the
team store. The Denver Rescue Missiongets those hats. So a lot of
(12:37):
people part with some expensive hats,but it goes to a good cause.
Nuggets Game five is tonight in LA. We just need to dispose of the
Lakers and move on already. That'dbe nice, right, so there's a
decent chance that the dude sitting inthe cubicle next to you is wearing seven
year old underwear. Gross. Right, it's the average length of time us
(13:01):
guys hang on to our undies beforewe buy new ones. Ladies, we
might need your help on this.Just jump in and fix that. Let's
hope they get washed regularly at leastso these days, a lot of grandparents
don't want to be called grandma andgrandpa. I know we didn't. We're
G Daddy and G Mama. Nanaand Papa are the most popular grandparent names,
(13:26):
and then for grandma, also onthe list, gig that's cute,
Nana, Mimi, and then there'sPoppy and Pops and Poppy with an eye.
I wanted to be big Poppy,but that didn't work so well.
Yes, I have seven grandkids.This weekend it was just me and two
grandsons, and yeah, they droveme crazy. I'll play the audio of
(13:50):
them bickering and fighting and me aboutto lose my mind, So be here
for that. Here we go,Johnny Wilde in the morning seven nine.
Appreciate you listening here on Monday morning. I'm kind of glad it's Monday,
because over the weekend it was gEddy Weekend camp. I had two of
my grandsons here, z Man isten and Camo Camden is seven, and
(14:16):
so my wife was out of town, so it was just the three of
us. And they're great boys.I love them, but my gosh,
sometimes they just do not get alongwith each other and they will fight and
bicker over everything. We've got thislittle nerf hoop that's hanging on the back
side of the front door, andthey're playing basketball, and I finally started
(14:37):
recording them. Listen, guys,we stop it. Nobody's left. I'm
(15:07):
surely not saw. I mean,it was absolute mayhem at times, and
I wanted to just send them toplay in traffic, but I couldn't really
do that. But anyway, they'regood kids. I love them. Stupid
news. Okay, this might beone of the dumbest stories we've had recently,
(15:28):
and we've had a lot of stupidones. Designer jeans that look like
you wet your pants. This isfor real. A new line of Jordan
Luca jeans have become infamous in thefashion world. They have a dark stain
in the groin area of the pantsand obviously it looks like you've either spilled
a drink or worse, had anaccident. I had an accident. So
(15:52):
if that's not dumb enough, theprice is even worse. Eight hundred dollars
a pair, and oh they're soldout online. What would make anybody want
to wear a pair of pants thatmake you look like you've tinkled? Tinkle
is such a fun word, isn'tit. That's what my mom made us
say. We couldn't say pee.I don't know why I said that,
(16:15):
but seriously, eight hundred bucks froma fair of jeans that looked like you
paid yourself. Hey, look asBilly Peter's pants. What's wrong with people?
They're idiots? Yeah, no doubt, And that is stupid news.
With Johnny Wilde in the morning everymorning home be he's in a nine.
(16:36):
Yeah man, that's the best,all right? Two law enforcement stories Furst
A quick one before the really goodone. A deputy in Pueblo helps this
teen with his tie before prom.This high school student stopped by the Sheriff's
office for some help with tying histie. They can be difficult. Detention
(16:57):
Deputy Jared Jansen responded quickly and expertlycrafted the perfect not for the student.
Then they discovered his tags are expiredby a year. No, I made
up that last part. But thatis really nice though. And why he
thought to go by there, Ihave no idea. All right, here's
the heart tug one right here.Twenty four years ago. I love this
(17:22):
story. A cop in Indiana namedJeene Esther saved a baby boy after someone
abandoned him in a cardboard box.Now they're in the news after Jean found
out the kid grew up to becomea cop himself. He's twenty four now.
His name is Matthew. He isa rookie with the same police department
(17:45):
Jeane works for. Here they aretelling the story. We've received a call
three students who lived in an apartmentcomplex had found a box for the baby
in it, and we responded tothat. I was the investigator on call
that evening, and from that pointhe was taken to child for detective Services.
So I had no information is whattranspired after that date. That's probably
why I ended up where I amnow. Well, Well, matt was
(18:07):
going through his field training. Hewas with an officer who I had served
with, and I got a callone evening from that officer who said,
you remember the case twenty three yearsago, and I said, I remember
it distinctly. He says, he'ssitting next to me. I said,
who he's sitting next to me?He's my rookie. Oh man, you're
killing me with the fields. That'sthe gest Wow. I love this gather
(18:34):
around boys and girls of old ages. It's time for wild animal stories.
So last week it was elephants thathad escaped and running all over the place
in Montana. This week, justimagine seeing this on your way to work,
four zebras escaped from a trailer andran down a highway near Seattle.
(18:56):
This happened on Sunday. It wasall over social media. So what happened
was a private owner was transporting thesezebras to Montana. I guess to meet
up with the elephants. I don'tknow when they escaped. Witnesses said drivers
helped keep the zebras from running ontothe highway, and citizens in the neighborhood
(19:17):
also helped corral them in a localresidence yard. It was mayhem, what
is happening? Oh my god,please get away. Hi, Maddy.
We were looking at a bunch ofzebras eating grass on the side of the
off ramp. The cars on theoff ramp pulled over by the guardrail and
lined up really close to kind ofmake a makeshift fence to keep them from
coming up onto the off ramp.I've only ever seen them in a zoo,
(19:37):
so that was the first suit.Must be a joke that just started
hanging out in the grass in somebody'syard. Oway here across the street,
I called, so I found themissing zebras. They're in my yard.
Not sure what to do? Canyou imagine? Best of all, they
had brought in a fifteen year oldrodeo clown veteran, and he had been
(19:57):
driving home from a cab in WashingtonState when they heard about the loose zebras
and stopped out to help. Andas of the other day, three had
been captured, but one was stillon the loose. How does he fit
a bunch of zebras in his littlerodeo clown car? I wonder? And
does anyone under fifty even know thismusic? I don't think so, ladies
(20:19):
and gentlemen, Johnny Wild in themorning nine. A study shows that the
new most dreaded word at work tohear is hey, Hey, Apparently,
the word can trigger a fight orflight response, which can lead to employees
thinking about the worst case scenario likeoh, jeez, what now, what
(20:41):
do you need me to do thatyou don't want to do. So listen
to this compilation and imagine you're hearingit at work as hey, hey,
hey, what do you y I'mnot hey, hey, hey, yeah,
(21:04):
I just broke out in hives blahblah. Johnny Wilde in the morning
on Big ninety seven nine, I'mJohnny wild You've probably heard of the five
love languages. But did you knowthere are five stress languages? Oh?
Yes, and we all speak oneor more of these. But knowledge is
(21:25):
power. So knowing how you respondto stress, and you know, letting
those close to you know how yourespond to stress, that can eliminate some
nasty confrontations. Plus they're just funto know. There's the imploder. They
freeze in a stressful situation, feelhopeless, helpless, paralyzed. The exploder
(21:48):
has an inflated reaction to a stressfulsituation, may get irritated, frustrated,
angry, or may simply leave.The fixer respond distress with people, pleasing,
mothering, and appeasement. The numberthis is probably not good numbs themselves
to the outside world with drugs,alcohol, overworking, over exercising, gaming,
(22:15):
et cetera. Then there's the denierpractices toxic positivity and response to stress,
and is often overly optimistic to avoidreality. Oh look, rainbows and
unicorns. Yeah, I'm not likethat. I'm I think I'm somewhere between
imploder and exploder and maybe some fixer. I don't know. I like my
(22:36):
wife's exploder. She exploder. Don'ttell her I said that though. All
right, thank you very much.Good morning. Come on now, y'all,
you know with Johnny Wilde in themorning on Big ninety. I can't
believe this. That emergency slide thatfell off of a Delta passenger jet late
(22:56):
last week right after takeoff. Oh, it's reported turned up. It landed
outside the home of an attorney whosefirm is currently suing Boeing over safety issues.
What are the odds? Attorney JakeBissell Links, whose firm filed suit
against Boeing over the blown outdoor incidentlast January, discovered the deflated slide washed
(23:22):
up outside of his ocean front homein Belle Harbor, Queens. This is
just I can't even some workers fromDelta were able to retrieve the slide and
haul it away. Talk about evidencefalling right into your lap. You know
what do you bet? He addspublic littering to the charges. Also,
(23:44):
oh my goodness, KFC, whatare you thinking? They've launched their own
perfume. It is dubbed number elevenOO well done, number eleven UDQ.
Yes, KFC's brand new friend,Fagrance, claims to have a classic barbecue
experience at every bottle. Creators sayyou'll notice a hit of smoky wood and
(24:07):
a dash of charcoal. This oneof a kind Fragrance is guaranteed to leave
you practically tipsy, with hunger andanimals probably chasing you. It's only fourteen
bucks a bottle. All the proceedsgo to the KFC Charitable Foundation. The
only beeffil new apply with a bastingbrush. Number eleven E the bibic Ye,
(24:33):
and there you go. That's thestupid Nies Johnny Wild ninety seven nine.
Well, a billionaire is building Titanictwo. It's a replica of the
one that sank in nineteen twelve.Yeah, you know, the one where
Rose could have saved Jack and lethim up on that door, but she
(24:53):
didn't. Early designs reveal the boatwill accommodate around twenty three hundred passengers.
The rich dude that is building thiswas asked why. He literally said,
it's a lot more fun to dothe Titanic than it is to sit at
home and count my money. Thispart is also true. Third class passengers
will be treated to stew and mashat long tables in a communal dining room,
(25:18):
just like they were on the originalship, though a spokesperson said other
meals will be available for those whowant a less authentic experience. Oh that's
nice, so maybe a Guy Fieriburger bar or something. And a new
survey reveals that forty two percent ofAmericans support the government's potential TikTok band.
Probably all parents frustrated that their kidsspend hours on the app. Matter of
(25:40):
fact, as an iheartstation, weare required to play this PSA, Please
listen. Are you aware of thedangers lurking on your child's phone? Very?
TikTok, the addictive app that's captivatingyoung minds everywhere, may not be
as harmless as it seems. TikTokpromotes cyber bullying, inappropriate content and even
(26:02):
data privacy concerns. It's time totake action protect your children from the negative
influences of TikTok. Together, let'smake us stand for a safer online environment.

well okay. Declared dead by doctors, the body of an eighty year old
Indian man was taken from the hospitalto where his morning relatives had gathered,
(26:49):
food was laid out, wood hadbeen collected for his funeral. Then the
ambulance hit a pothole. You thinkwe've got bad pot holes here in northern
Colorado ate, nothing like India.His grandson, who was with him in
the ambulance, noticed that after slamminginto this pothole, he was moving his
(27:10):
hand. The ambulance driver headed tothe nearest hospital, where the doctors declared
him alive. It's yeah, andthe man's like II five right, bob,
bob, what's up? Man?Goodness? See you not so stiff
this time? Much better? Look, Hey, beers are on you,
(27:32):
brother, and that is the goodstuff. That's the good stuf. A
big ninety seven nine. Now they'rearound, boys and girls of old ahes.
It's time the wild animal stories.A pet kitty survived a week without
food or water after being accidentally shippedoff in an Amazon return box by its
(27:57):
owners. Wow, Utah resident CarrieClark first noticed that Galina, her cat,
had gone missing around April tenth.They had a frantic search of the
neighborhood for any side of the cat. A week later, an Amazon warehouse
worker in California, California, youknow, she clocked into her shift,
(28:18):
started opening return packages and out popsus a cat. The box was one
of those try before you buy andfilled with steel toed work boots. So
the worker took the cat to avet who read the microchip and identified the
owner in Utah checked this out.I got the most amazing, insane news
(28:41):
in the entire world. I justcouldn't even believe that she was in California.
I thought it was a prank.Like I still still hard to wrap
my brain around. She was trappedin an Amazon package, and it was
in this really big sized Amazon package. We had no idea, So Matt
took the chackage to the drop offwithout nor dear Cat was inside. Oh,
(29:02):
somehow it's gonna all be his fault. I'm afraid pretty soon somebody somewhere
is going to receive a pair ofwork boots from Amazon and say, Wow,
why do these smell like cat pee? You only need to get up
and get gold clone out, geton up with Johnny Wilde in the morning
on Big ninety seven to nine.Oh, Johnny wild I'm Big ninety seven
to nine. Hello Noko, thanksfor having me on this morning. So
(29:26):
a survey shows the average adult onlyhas three true friends they can rely on,
while most people claim to have sixteenfriends and appear to have dozens,
if not hundreds, on social media. Of course, about fifty percent admit
most of those people are just kindof acquaintances. The study also found the
(29:47):
typical adult is left with only threeclose friends and we lose touch with an
average of thirty six people over theyears. More than half poled that their
busy lifestyle was the main reason for, you know, failing to keep in
touch with old friends, and fourout of ten people say they've just drifted
apart. Meanwhile, My wife Katis the exception to this rule. Just
(30:14):
this past weekend, she was ona girl's weekend with twelve of her high
school friends. They spent the wholeweekend in close quarters. No issues,
no arguments, no cat fights,nothing, she told me. Twenty seven
years and thirty offspring later, theystill consider each other their closest friends.
(30:36):
I think that's so cool, soneat, so happy for her. Oh
and it doesn't stop there. Thoseare her Philly friends. Then she's from
high school. Then she's got elementaryand middle school friends from Pittsburgh, and
then a whole different set of collegefriends from CU and now of course her
work friends. Me. I don'ttalk to any of my Arkansas school buddies.
(30:57):
I have it in decades. Recently, though, I've been, you
know, getting in touch with someof my old radio cronies, and that's
nice. But it's good to stayin touch with at least a few people.
I should have done a better job. I'm a bad I'm a bad
friend. Hopefully I've still got time. Otherwise it'll just be my wife's friends
(31:18):
at my funeral. I guess,hey, you're all invited. If something
happens, I'm Johnny Walla on Bigninety seven to nine, Good Morning,
Stupid News. A couple came backfrom a three week trip to Switzerland.
I want to go there so bad, and they noticed that T Mobile build
them one hundred forty three thousand dollarsfor using nine point five gigabytes of roaming
(31:45):
data while overseas. Wow, fiveto ten gigabytes is considered average for one
month. But when you're roaming andoverseas, oh yeah, it costs thousands
of dollars each day on this trip. This totally happened to us on a
cruise in January. Now, wedidn't get dinged one hundred and forty three
grand, but it was still nearlyfour hundred bucks, and I was angry.
(32:08):
We had no clue. I stilldon't know what we did wrong.
It was weird. Let's see mansets tree hugging record. There's a dude
studying forestry in Alabama. He seta world record for the most hugged trees
in an hour, hugging one thousand, one hundred twenty three trees at Tuskegee
(32:30):
National Forest. The record attempt requiredthat he wrapped both of his arms around
each tree in a close embrace withoutcausing any damage to the trees. I
don't know if legs were involved too. Tree no, no tree could be
hugged more than once. He averagednineteen trees per minute, and he easily
(32:53):
surpassed the minimum requirement of seven hundredtrees to have establish the record. He
just kept going. He now sayshe's engaged to a sycamore, so good
for him. Johnny Wilde in themorning, hot dogs saved a guy's life
in Omaha. Those tornadoes were intense. They destroyed his house, but he's
(33:19):
okay. He was out buying hotdogs at a gas station when it happened.
Here is Jason talking about it.You know, I was at the
gas station getting hot dogs and itsaved my life. So hot dogs saved
my life. You know, accountyour blessings. Be glad. There's no
fatalities in the neighborhood I heard,and families saved. Stuff can be replaced,
but family's everything. Amen. Wow, that is crazy. I know
(33:42):
there's a saved by a Wiener jokein there somewhere, but I'm not well,
wait a minute, I guess Ijust did it. Sorry. Tomorrow
an incredible story about a cop savinga baby boy who is now his new
rookie recruit decades later. It's agreat story. Make sure you're here for
that. That's the gist on Bigninety seventy nine. Well, I guess
(34:07):
the end of yolo and lmao havealready happened. Yeah, they're lame now,
and we're gonna have to use theseinstead. I'm Johnny Wilde. So
someone pulled gen zers and asked themto name the most outdated acronyms that they
think are cringe now. For example, LOL, which I'm sure you and
I we love that, we loveLOL on anything. Oh no, that's
(34:30):
at the top of the list.If you text it to someone in their
early twenties, they'll instantly think you'rean outdated boomer, even if you're not.
Sorry, but I'm not going tostop using lol now instead of lmao.
You know what that means. You'resupposed to write ijbol ijbol. I've
(34:52):
never even seen this. It isshort for I just burst out laughing,
all right, that's legit. Stopusing rofl. That is short for rolling
on the floor laughing. Well,I never started that one, so I
can't stop stop calling things fire.That's already lame, and I just started
(35:15):
using that one. Lit is backin style. Now that is lit man.
We can't call things gross anymore.According to gen Z ers, you
gotta call them ick. Now,this one makes sense. Never say just
give me the four to one one. No one under forty knows that that's
the number for directory assistance. Thatmakes no sense to them. Instead,
(35:38):
you're supposed to say, what's thetea? Or hey, spill the t
man, that's dumb. Finally,stop calling crazy people cray In two thousand
and twenty four, their delulu.Do you know what delulu means? Delusional?
(35:59):
Yeah, so there you go.By the way, I asked my
five gen Z millennial kids what theythought about all of this, and my
twenty six year old responded, hesaid that slaps. I'm like, what
he I guess that is the newsubstitute for gr and the number eight what.
I can't keep up with this?Whatever man, Johnny Wilde in the
(36:21):
morning on Big ninety seven nine.Let's do it all right? How about
the big things you need to notice? Sounds smart at work? A new
poll found the number one thing atthe perfect hotel we must have really fast
Wi Fi. We can't just goon vacation we've got to have Instagram and
TikTok and be able to surf.Also, a king sized bed, smart
(36:44):
TV, nearby attractions, a restaurantin the building is nice unless it stinks.
And a fitness center but come on, who you fooling? You're not
gonna go. I barely go either. What happened to vibrating beds? Remember
those? Here's how fast your passwordcan be cracked. In twenty twenty four,
(37:05):
even just a nine digit number wouldtake them only about six minutes.
Basic passwords can be cracked instantly.Okay, So they say you gotta start
mixing in upper lower case letters.Special symbols like exclamation points will help a
lot. Yeah, this is kindof scary. If if you had that
(37:28):
nine character password with all that,it would take almost five hundred years to
crack four hundred and seventy nine tobe exact, okay, And if you
were extra careful and crazy and upto eighteen characters, they say it would
take nineteen quintillion years. That's noteven a real number. Come on,
(37:50):
yesterday, we learned audio emojis arecoming to phone calls. Google Phone specifically,
they're rolling out the audio emoji,which plays sound while you're talking on
the phone. There's six of them. They're coming out with like clapping,
the rimshot, drum roll, crying. People. Listen to me. This
(38:10):
is what I do on a dailybasis. You don't need this on your
phone. I got your rim shot. Yeah, I've got your applause.
See hey, they're not gonna havean air horn. I got you there.
I've even got Homer Simpson drops.God, you're hilarious. So listen.
(38:30):
Leave this to the professionals. Please, that's the way it needs to
be. Good morning. Come onnow, y'all, get on up with
Johnny Wilde in the Morning on Bigninety seven nine
