Here's the best. You ever ask someone if they know someone, and then they tell you a different name?
How's that possible? That happens to me all the time. I go, hey, I go, you know, Mike Anderson, he goes,
I don't know, uh, Flip Gunnerson.
Did you hear me say Flip Gunnerson?
Sometimes they don't even have the right sex. I go, you know, Mike Smith, he goes, uh, I know with Denise Smith.
I go, yeah, that's the guy.
What do you got to play in your head? What the hell's the matter with you?
It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk
And that makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch
And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my memory
Good morning, I'm Don Rosen, 607 at WRJ and Radio
It is slippery out there this morning. I mean, the sidewalk is like a sheet of ice
I know in front of the radio station, I was very slippery, I had to go salt it as soon as I walked in the building
I walked on the grass and the snow to get in because I couldn't move on the sidewalk
It was that slippery
Even coming out of my house, I had a salt on the wall and it was just, you can just skate
And it's very easy to lose your balance
So be very, very careful out there, even on the roads it's a little slick
And again, I had people pass me, they just didn't want to go to the speed limit, they were impatient
One car that ran right by me on 16th Street, I looked at this car as you went by
His window was replaced with plastic
His whole side of the car was smashed in
This is because he can't drive like a normal human being
He's got to speed all over because he's late for something
Or he just likes going fast
And it's very slippery out there, you can step on your brakes and just skid a little bit
So be careful out there, please be careful
So the forecast is calling for rain and sleep and snow today
Maybe an inch or less, temperatures in the low 30s
Which means we're right at that freezing mark
Cloudy tonight, temps in the low 30s, light rain tomorrow with a high in the upper 30s
Right now, it's 33, right on that borderline, rain and snow falling around the Racine area
Hey, coming up this morning, we've got some tickets to give away this hour to the Racine Peter Guild
We've got a pair of tickets to give away to dial M from Mercury for this Friday night
So get ready later on this hour, we're gonna give you a chance to win those tickets, alright?
Now you're a week and from the back roads by the rivers of my memories
Ever smiling, ever gentle on my mind
Hip-Hand is coming in this morning
Yeah, we're talking preservation recene
Hip-Hand will be in, I love that name, that's why I just like saying it
Hip-Hand will be in this morning at the 706
She'll skid her slide her way right into our building
Actually, this is all part of it
So she'll be walking okay, I guess
I just called her, I said be careful walking into the building this morning
Hey, it might be a little bit, this is raining out there now where we are
And it was raining on the by the lake this morning
And it was raining here on Victory Avenue
But still, wow, I was just shocked at how slippery it was when I walked down through this morning
Because there's nothing on the car, the car was just wet
You know, I looked out the windows and on the car's wet, it's okay
Wow, that first step on to my sidewalk
I was going to land on my keyster
But just be careful this morning
Question, have you ever accidentally left something behind in a hotel and thought
Well, that'll seem strange to somebody who finds it
A travel company released some of the weirdest items left in hotels
This is just last year alone
Here's some of the stuff
Dentures, which, you know, the first time you want to choose something
I guess you'd realize you're left and behind
This one's scary, witchcraft paraphernalia
What were they doing in that hotel room?
Witchcraft paraphernalia
Prosthetic limbs
You think you wouldn't forget those in a hotel room
A glass eye, there's another item
You think you wouldn't forget and leave behind
And an inflatable boat
Now, when I leave a hotel room with my wife, we look around and we say, all right
Everything looks good
You think you would notice an inflatable boat left behind of that hotel room, wouldn't you?
There's a new gadget called Nassau Comm
This is just as of yesterday
Supposedly helping your allergies
You just strap it to your face and in an electrocute your nose
It's got six electrodes
Three for each nostril
They deliberate small electric shock
To stimulate the muscles in your nose
They claim making your nose muscles contract and relax
Can help clear your sinuses and let you breathe easier
It's currently on Kickstarter for $60
I don't know if you want your nose tased first thing in the morning
I wouldn't want an electric shock to my nose
But you know, I guess if your sinuses are that bad, if I want to do it
Around one and four Americans claim they can feel it in their joints when a storm is coming
But is it a real thing or are they just saying that?
Well, the experts say, no, it's real
The air pressure drops
It can cause tissue in your joints to swell
It can also cause headaches
So when somebody says their trick knee says it's going to rain
You best bring your umbrella
My wife and I did one Sunday morning about a year or so ago
We woke up and we started reading about barometric pressure
And everything about barometric pressure
I don't know what brought that up that morning
But we started looking it up and then we got really entangled in it
But yeah, barometric pressure can really play havoc with your body
Now the reason your body doesn't collapse
Because when the pressure gets high outside
It's because the pressure inside your body is equaling it out
One thing with why a table doesn't collapse because of the pressure
Because this pressure going in both directions
And when there's no pressure on the inside
For example, when you, I don't know, have a package
And you get all the air out of the package
You notice the package collapsed
Because the pressure on the outside, the barometric pressure on the outside of the package
Is greater than what's on the inside
Same thing happens with your body
When the barometric pressure outside is greater
Then some of the pressure on the inside of your body
You start to feel the pain and hence it's going to rain
Or low pressure means it swells
High pressure means it's going to push against you
But low pressure, which brings rain
I guess that's how it works
You should look at barometric pressure
No, it's not an exciting topic to talk about
But it's very interesting
All right, and the American tourist was in Canada
And they were shocked when they ordered a hamburger
Cooked medium at a restaurant in Canada
And had a sign a waiver that they couldn't sue the restaurant if it made them sick
Apparently all hamburgers in Canada have to be cooked well done to avoid food poisoning
Anything less than that, you've got to indemnify them against any lawsuit
I hope this dog gets a lot of treats
I happen to see this video on ABC World News
A 65-year-old northern Michigan man fell through an icy lake and his dog was there
So a cop showed up but couldn't get on the ice because it was too thin
So he called the dog over which was able to walk on the ice
Called the dog tied a rope to the dog's collar
And then said bring it to your owner and he did
And he brought the rope to the owner
The owner got a hold of the rope and the cop was able to pull him to safety
The cop's chess cam caught the whole video
That dog saved this owner's life
Didn't leave his owner, my dog would have run away I think
But the owner grabbed the rope from the dog's collar and the dog walked him in
I'm telling you, it happened I saw the video
That's a dog, huh?
Wow, I hope that dog got better than the treats
I hope that dog got a steak dinner that night
Here are a few easy ways to lose some weight
I love these ways
This is my way to lose weight
Deep breathing before dinner keeps you out of flight or flight
And encourages your body to burn calories instead of storing them
Getting more sleep keeps hormones in check and reduces urges to overeat
And pacing around while you talk on the phone can burn five calories per minute
I could do all of those with no problem
I don't seem to be losing weight
But maybe I might try it again
Alright, showbiz news, Paulie Shore debuted his short film about Richard Simmons at the Sundance Film Festival
He said Richard actually texted him and wished him good luck
The other day we read a story that Richard Simmons wanted absolutely nothing to do with this film
But I guess he changed his mind
Valerie Bertnelli got the boot
From Food Network's kids baking champion chapter being a host and a judge for 12 seasons
He says she was cut from the show due to budget cuts and it still hurts though
Dorothy's ruby red slippers, a man stole them, I guess from the owner of them
Back in 2005 and did it because he believed the rubies were real
Of course they're not real, they're glass
They'll be sentenced next week
I'll get anybody be so gullible and think that the ruby red slippers were made of real rubies
Especially for a movie like they can believe that thing laying around on his set
Odd but true, none of the Beatles could read or write conventional music, Paulie's to call them dots on a page
The shortest career for anyone who's played in the NBA is Jameson Curry
He played for 3.9 seconds for the Los Angeles Clippers back in 2010
And that is all he played in the NBA
Krispy Kreme's most profitable location of its 1300 stores worldwide is in
No, it's not here in Racine. Nope, nowhere near here. It's in Dublin, Ireland
They have sales of $330,000 a week in revenues selling Krispy Kreme donuts
Whoa
Speaking about donuts, there's a class action suit against Duncan donuts arguing
It discriminates and charges people who can't have dairy more for non-dairy alternatives
Like almond and oat milk, Starbucks facing a similar lawsuit
To all people, listen up
US Airlines with the most legroom, JetBlue and Southwest Airlines
The ones with the least frontier and spirit airlines, I need legroom, I'm 6'3
And when I sit down, there's barely enough for my knees
And then if the person in front of me puts their seat back, which I always thought was rude on the airline
I mean, you know the person in back you has very little room to begin with
And you're going to put your seat all the way back, it's just rude
You can't ride two hours with that seat up, come on
If everybody did that, we'd all be, you know, so I bumped the seat with my knees occasionally
Because I have no choice, what am I going to do?
I got to do something with my knees, so I bumped them
And eventually, if I do it enough, they'll put their seat up
Or they'll just rock it a little bit to aggravate me
This is one of the main reasons I don't like flying
There's like a hundred reasons why, but that's one of them
And spirit airlines, boy are they getting really raked over the coals by the late night talk shows
I don't know, I've never flown spirit airlines, but apparently not a great airline
I think that they filed for some kind of bankruptcy or something recently
They tried to merge with frontier airlines
And I think it was frontier, wasn't it?
No, no, jet blue, they tried to merge with jet blue and the government said, uh-uh, ain't going to happen
So anyway, on the flip side of the break, we have showbiz news
Part 2 coming up with Jamie Foxx, Alec Baldwin
And some other stuff, ball straight ahead
At WRJN Radio, Rain and Slate, very slippery out there this morning
Very slippery, don't let the wetness on the sidewalk fool you
It is icy
Especially in parking lots, I couldn't walk in our parking lot this morning
I had to walk on the grass with the snow, was that bad?
Alright, 619 WRJN Radio, hold down radio, refreshed, stay where you are
Music
There'll never be anyone else but you
For me, never ever be
Just couldn't be anyone else but you
If I could take my pick of all
The girls I have ever known
Then I'd come and pick you out to be my very own
There'll never be anyone else but you
For me, never ever be
Just couldn't be anyone else but you
A heart that's true and long for you
It's all I have to give
All my love belongs to you
As long as I may live
There'll never be anyone else but you
For me, never ever be
Just couldn't be anyone else but you
At 621 at WRJN Radio, Rain and Slate and Snow

Temperatures in the low 30s cloddy
Tempts in the low 30s tonight
Light rain tomorrow, ice in the upper 30s
Currently some rain is snow falling
Mainly rain where we are
33 degrees
Coming up tonight was Compton Badgers men's basketball

Florida at the Racine bittergild
For me, never ever be
Just couldn't be anyone else but you
At 622 at WRJN Time for Showbiz News
Part 2 this morning, Jamie Foxx
Resuming filming back in action
The movie he was shooting when he suffered his
Still undisclosed medical emergency
Alec Baldwin once again finding himself indicted
On a then voluntary manslaughter charge following a new investigation
Into the fatal shooting on the set of his movie
Rust and with all this public domain
Horace stuff happening it's interesting to note that
Superman hits public domain in 2034 along with Batman Joker
Wonder Woman following in the years after
Superman will be in the public domain
Mickey Mouse is in the public domain
But just the Mickey Mouse from steamboat
Willie the first Mickey Mouse cartoon
If you want to draw Mickey Mouse feel free to do it
But it's got to be the Mickey Mouse
And he looks kind of different than today's Mickey Mouse
From steamboat Willie he's in the public domain
It happens after a certain number of years
And anybody can use it
I don't think that's right though
If you invent something you should kind of own it forever
No
Someone went through every list they could find
Where experts weighed in on the best summer jobs for teenagers
I know it's raining it's snowing out there
But start thinking about what you're going to do this summer
When school lets out
Here are the top five overall camp counselor
That would be a fun job
I'm so sorry I didn't go to summer camp
All the kids of my neighborhood went to either day camp
Or summer camp
Most went to day camp
Where a bus picked you up in the morning drops you off
You know late in the afternoon
I'm sorry I didn't do it
I went to what they summer school
It's not what you think
Summer school at art school was playing around
When you were a kid they had sprinklers
We did arts and crafts
I went to summer school
It wasn't like summer school when you failed a grade
It was summer school
When you have fun
You play you're a little kid
And so I went to that
But I wish I would have gone to camp
That's the only regret I have about it being a kid and not growing up
I didn't go all the other kids went
Anyway, camp counselor, camp at number one baby sitter
Number two, I did that
A tutor, I did that too
Dog Walker, remember to do that
Mowing lawns that I did
I didn't charge enough
I think I should have charged more
I think they took advantage of me
Do you and your neighbors get along?
If so, fantastic
I'm not with my neighbors
On the other hand
Here are the five classic things
Neighbors hate about each other
Mowing the lawn at odd hours
Yeah, coming up at five or four in the morning
The more you're lawn
It's probably not a good idea
Backyard parties
Okay, but when they start going past midnight
Especially on a weeknight
Come on
Smoke from a fire pit
Blowing into their home
You know, I'm so cognizant
When I'm barbecuing
And the smoke is going to
Or my neighbor's house
I really can't stomp it
But at least it smells like steak
No, not like smoked smoke
It's steak smoke
Poorly positioned flood lights
That blast through your window at night
Now, when I set up the Christmas lights
When you had this laser thing
Shining on the house
And part of it when my neighbor's house
So I just took it down
Anyone I asked him
Was it going in your window
They said, no, don't worry about it
We, you know, put the window shade down
I said, no, no, no, no
It's not good enough. I'll just stop doing it
And I did
And of course, overly loud dogs
We have a dog in our neighborhood
I don't know exactly which house
I suspect which house it is
But all day long
Bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark
All day long
Now in the winter
Not as bad because they don't leave the dog out all winter
But in the summer
In the spring and the fall
That dog is out there
All day long barking
My guess is they go to work
And just leave the dog outside in the backyard
Probably put some water out there
A little food
And say
See at five o'clock
Because that dog doesn't stand barking
Odd but true
The New York Times has approximately
1600 to 1700
Obituary is pre-written
Ready to go when somebody actually dies
The obits are added a rate of about three a week
And they use them roughly at about three a week
So when like Norman-Jewison passed away yesterday
Very very famous director
Director of the Thomas Crown Affair
Let's see
The fettler on the roof
And the heat of the night
So many big movies
When he passed away
They were ready to go
They had this entire obit online
And they didn't just write it now
And they wrote it in advance
So when somebody passes away
They're ready to go
Liz Taylor so bit
Was written way in advance so much
So the guy who wrote it passed away before she did
True story
How do you feel about this?
US regulars have cleared cultivated meat
AKA lab-grown meat
For sale in this country
The first two companies selling it upside food
And good meat
They say production started
Now it's on
I don't know
Do you want to eat
Lab meat?
I don't think so
You know, lately I've been
Feeling funny about eating regular meat
Because I realized I'm eating murdered animal
I still eat it
But lab meat?
Yeah
People just noticed that good humor has discontinued the toasted almond bar
The company says they have no current plans to bring it back
When I was a kid, the good humor man came around to destruct
I'm telling you, good humor man
Everybody got toasted almond?
Coconut ice to get the coconut bar
Oh, it was so good

Try to be good
I call home once a week
I FaceTime my mom's forehead every Sunday
Last time we FaceTime my mom's how long my hair is getting into this is a quote
She went, you look like Johnny Damon from that movie Good Luck Hunting
That's a lot of mistakes to cram into one sentence
From a woman living in Boston
I didn't know what to say I just went well
How do you like them bananas and I just moved on
I do call my mom every Sunday
Except this week she called me on a Monday
Which was a nightmare
We had just spoken on Sunday
Anyone else have a parent in their 80s you call on a designated day
Then they break the routine
Isn't that terrifying?
I was at work I saw the phone lighting up and said mom I immediately go to worst case
I'm like who fell, who died, or worse she just wants to chat
Like we just...
Well you woke me from a dream about you
Just to say that you were leaving
I'm sleepy but I thought that you said
I love that will last forever and
Well before you walk out of my life
Would you be especially quiet?
And don't you let my heart know that you're leaving
Don't you say another word of my darling
Don't you let my heart hear your footsteps
Walk out of the door of my heart and dream
Don't you let my heart know that you're leaving
Don't you say another word of my darling
Leave me now before my heart finds out
Well I see you riding something down
And leaving it on the dresser
The tears in your eyes look a lot like mine
But I guess it's all for the better
Well before we say our last goodbye
Baby won't you hold me just one more time
And don't you let my heart know that you're leaving
It's 6.37 at WRJN Radio
Very slippery out there this morning
And only for your car but for your feet
It's like a sheet of ice
It's raining but it's very, very slippery
I had to walk and get across a front lawn this morning to get in the building
I couldn't walk on the sidewalk
Now I sold it part of it for our guests coming in
But wow
Be careful walking out there
Rain, sleet and snow today and inter less
Temperatures in the low 30s today
Clotty, temps in the low 30s tonight
Light rain, highs in the upper 30s tomorrow
Is winter over?
Every time I think that I keep thinking about the 24-inch snowstorm we had on
I guess it was back in 2011
It was on Groundhog Day
So anytime I think winter is over
I think about Groundhog Day back then
So I'm not going to say winter is over quite yet
Hey if you're a gardener listen to this
So woman in Georgia is excited
Because she planted in her yard 36 years ago
A flower and it bloomed
It's called the century plant
It only blooms once in its entire life
And when it does it's impressive
Directly overnight a stalk shot up 25 feet from the middle of it
This actually happened last fall or spring
Less summer I think
And I did see it and it just shot up in one night
I don't it's too bad they didn't have like photography watching this thing
It's really amazing to watch it
It's kind of spooky too
Blow up that quickly
All right time for odd but true
No former SNL Saturday night live cast members
Everyone in Oscar for acting however
A former in living color cast member has Jamie Foxx
One for a fantastic performance playing Ray Charles in the movie Ray
One best actor he was good in that
The FBI picked the name the unibomber
Remember the unibomber?
They picked it because it was short for university and airline bomber
People had no idea what he was called the unibomber
I remember somebody was interviewing his mother
They called her unibom
They were interviewing her
Well he locked up for life so he's not going anywhere
The time is going survey found the average person will spend three months of their lifetime
Getting ready for work each day
Men spend 23 minutes a day in the bathroom
Or 373 days of their entire lifetime
Women spend about 29 minutes a day in there or 456 days of their life
That's where your time is going folks
Are you a law breaker?
No let's find out here
A survey found the most common laws we all break
Speeding number one
Littering illegally downloading music TV shows or movies
It's amazing how many people are law binding citizens that do it
It's law breaking you're stealing is what you're doing
And it's a crime but people do it
Taking stuff from a hotel room
Now we're not talking about those little shampoo things
You could take those they want you to take them
Because they're going to throw them out anyway
They don't reuse those things
So if it's those little shampoo things find
We're talking about TV sets
We're talking about towels
We're talking about paintings on the wall
And don't laugh
People took a grand piano out of a hotel once
They take televisions all the time
So that happens
But the little shampoo things you could take those
Parking it in no parking zone
Or parking in a handicap spot
When it's obvious that you
Don't have first of all you don't have a placard
You can't park in a handicap spot
Unless you have a placard
It doesn't matter if you can walk or not
Or you have a handicap whether it be a heart problem
Or something like that
Not all handicaps are visible
Not everybody has to walk with a cane
Or use a wheelchair
I mean people have heart problems
You can make some handicap
So if you don't have a placard
You can't park there
But people do it
And texting while driving
How many people do that
And I was supposed to be talking on your phone when you're driving
It's not illegal in the state
It isn't some
I was on my phone
I got dirty look from somebody
I forgot that it's illegal to talk on your cell phone
In the state of New York
While driving
Unless it's hands-free
And I didn't have a hands-free phone
And I got, I pulled up to a light and I got this dirty look
I didn't know what they were looking at
But yeah
It's called inattentive driving
And if you do it and you have an accident
It's gonna cost you
All right, here's another feeling old moment
I guess it's how many years ago was that now?
39 years ago
The movie Look Who's Talking
Two came out
Remember that was John Travolta's the voice of the baby
It was 39 years ago
My goodness
Which sounds worse to you
Having nude photos of you fly around the internet
Or having some hacker in Russia
Or rack up $50,000 in debt
On your stolen credit card information
Tough call to some people
People would rather have their
Nude photos leaked than their financial information
People would also rather have nude photos of them
Than have somebody rob their home
I agree
I mean
You really want to see my nude photos
I think Facebook would melt down
If they were on the internet
But yeah, I don't want my
I mean no
I mean your nude photos
People look at them
Throw up and then
That information lasts forever out there
Yeah, I'm just thinking about that now
That would be terrible
I never saw anybody's nude photos on the internet
I just never have
I mean how do the Facebook wouldn't let them on there
I don't think
But where do people get nude photos
I don't even know where you would look for those nude photos
If you wanted to
When it's the last time you picked up a landline phone
To talk to someone
Well with me it was 10 minutes ago
When I talk to Andy and he won a contest
Here at the station that was a landline I talked on
But how about you?
When was the last time you talked down a landline to somebody
Probably would have been a ridiculous question 20 years ago
But now it's
I think you probably have to think about it
According to the survey
40% of people have used a landline in the past few days
Although it's mostly older people
25% of us haven't used a landline in the last six months
2% have never ever used one
No, I did call somebody
One of our guests and they said
I have a landline so don't leave a message
So there are people that have them
When we were ready to get rid of our landline
I was nervous if I say
Come on
Just don't disconnect me from the world
Don't I told my wife please she said
Let me tell you this is true
She said in six months
If you can't still breathe
If you're still having palpitations
We'll put it back
I never missed it
Now we still have our phone on the wall
It's got to be covered up by something
We still have our dial up phone on the wall
Not you know rotary dial but push what and phone
Still on the wall
But she did say that if you still can't breathe
And you having palpitations after six months
I'll put the landline back
I never missed it
I thought I would but I didn't
There's a video that went around
They put a rotary dial phone
In front of these teenagers and said make a call
They didn't know how to do it
They had no idea how rotary phone works
They put their finger in it but they didn't know what to do with it
Yeah so they said well you have to
You know go around
Put your finger in the number you want to dial
And put your finger in the number you want to dial
But they didn't know to let it go
They would slowly
Bring it back with their finger
And they were trying to say no you have to
Put your finger in the six
Bring it all the way around
It won't go anymore and take your finger out
They couldn't they couldn't master that
Isn't that scary
When I was at the World's Fair in 1964
I think it was ten years old
I mean in fact I was ten years old
And I went with my parents
And they went to the restrooms
And my brother and I were left there
And they had push button phones
In the phone booths
At the World's Fair
This was the debut of them
Nobody ever seen them before
They were debuted at the World's Fair in 1964
They had a phone call to somebody
It was ten cents
Can I call a friend at home
He said what are you going to do that for
I said I want to try the phone
He said you're never going to see these phones
They're never going to be real phones
This is just at the World's Fair
They're not going to make push button phones
My father obviously is seer of the future
What was he wrong on that one
He wasn't wrong a lot
But he was wrong there
Thanks dad
What lies do you tell more often
My phone was on silent
So I didn't know you called
Sorry I didn't have any change on me
And about this one
How do you feel? I'm fine
You're not fine, but you're lying about it
We all tell those lies
64% of parents say
They feel the need to escape for a while
During the day with their kid
The average parent escapes at 3.53 pm
And most all of them find refuge
By hiding in the bathroom
The average of 14.5 minutes in there
With the door locked to get away from their kids
Oh, I can tell you stories
But I won't
It's morning, nobody wants your bathroom stories in the morning
61% of dog owners kiss their dog on the mouth
52% say
They kiss their dog more often than they kiss their significant other
I used to kiss my dog on the mouth
A little peck on them
Not you know with this tongue out or anything
Everybody, all dog owners do that
And you know how are you this morning
There's a physicist in Colorado
That's been working with his son to 3D print their own get this
Working Lamborghini
So far they spend $20,000
3D printing a Lamborghini
And it's a lot less than the real one
The real Lamborghini costs $335,000
Could you really print out an entire Lamborghini engine parts
Everything a door, a hood
Can you do something like that?
What do you begin?
Anyway, this guy in a senate trying
Here's some of the worst ways people have been dumped
On the dance floor and my friends wedding they said
On the same day I put my family's 14-year-old dog to sleep
Get them while they're down
And he did it on April 1st
So I wasn't sure if it was an April Fool's joke until the next day
When he said yes, we're splitting up
The full story here
When our FM station here in 1991 was switching formats from country to easy listing music
It was WHKQ Tony Gazana, our general manager
At the time said
I don't want to switch on April 1st
Because people are going to think it's a joke
So we waited till April 2nd
True story
We played country music from what
Actually I think we stopped, we didn't play anything on the air for that day
Because the studio was already dismantled at that time
So we waited till April 2nd
Because anytime something happens on April 1st
By the way, if you ever want a job in radio
Most disc jockeys get fired on April 2nd
That's truth because they always do some stupid stunt on the radio on April 1st
Which gets them fired on April 2nd
So if you want a job in radio always apply on April 2nd
Most of the jobs are open then

Before my heart finds out
Cosmo magazine posted a list of things
It instantly make a hot guy not hot anymore
I never had a worry about that, but they include
He knows he's hot
And being mean to your pet
That's it, that's it, no, that's forget it
You're done, mean to your
The girls pet, oh forget it
There's no way you're going to live past that
You don't make it past that
Let's see what else we have here
If you text someone and they don't write back
A study found you should wait
Three hours and 52 minutes
Not four hours, but three hours and 52 minutes
That significantly increases your chances of getting your response
That never works with me
Sometimes I have to send text messages like
50 times
Till they're so annoyed, they don't want to deal with me anymore
Odd but true, the average cloud
Ways 1.1 million pounds
But the way to so distributed across such a big space
It still floats
Clouds weigh 1.1 million pounds
Huh
Looking forget away to nowhere this summer
All right, here you go
A study actually located the middle of nowhere
It's an Idaho
The study looked at which parts of the United States
From any major roads and two of the four
Most isolated places are in Idaho
They're in the Grand Canyon in Arizona
And also the lakes in Northwest Maine
I was in the center of the United States
I think it's in Belfouche
South Dakota
Somebody told me it was in Kansas
But it said South Dakota
Belfouche says who we went there
And this thing is stand on
And supposedly you're in the center of the United States
However, my wife and I found that
It wasn't true, the actual center was in a farmer's field
Not far from there
But since they couldn't put this, you know,
Pterest walking his field
They actually made it a little further down the road
Where they had some land where they can make this giant thing
We stand in the middle of it
And supposedly you're standing in the middle of the United States
At that point
Here's something new to worry about
One in three people
No, there's who's going
Wait a second
One in three people know
They found something serious
Yeah, I'd like to go out of the doctor
That routine, everything's routine
And it looks to each other
Uh-oh, what do you mean uh-oh
You never want to hear a doctor say
Huh or uh-oh
Huh
Did you know this?
That's horrible
Let's see what else we got here for you this morning
Would you screw over a worker
A friend for a promotion
68% of people in their early 20s said
You would screw over a friend
To get a promotion
62% of people in their 50s and 60s say
They wouldn't even consider it
I would never do that
If they wanted to get their promotion they probably deserve it
Here's the secret to a good first date
Let the other person order the food first
And even if it sounds terrible
Order the exact same thing
When people on first dates
Order the same food they instantly built trust
And camaraderie
It increases the odds you might get a second date
All right
You have to eat that terrible food
Now this is true again
I love true stories
When I worked at my first radio station
I was going to leave it but they said don't leave
We just bought a radio station in Atlanta
Go down there talk to the general manager
And you could do mornings down in Atlanta
You put the morning show down there
But meet him first so they flew me down to Atlanta
And he took me out to lunch
And he said I'm going to give you
He said I'm going to treat you to a real southern lunch
And he got all these fried vegetables
Everything down there is fried
And he got me southern fried okra
And all this southern fried food
The oil was dripping all over my plate
Now I'm not a big vegetable eater to begin with
And this stuff I would never touch in a million years
But I wanted the job
So I was not paying a...
I have no idea what this man was saying to me
I have no idea, Jack was his first time
I forget his last name
But I have no idea what he was saying to me
Because I was concentrating on not letting this food come up
Once it came down my throat
So I cut into the okra
And it was like deep fried with
You know some kind of coating on it
And I took a bite
And they said I'm not going to make it
I mean while he's talking to me the whole time
He's saying because I'm just concentrating on not letting this food come up
And I'm eating this fried okra
And there was some other fried horrible vegetables
I had to eat
And I ate him
And I just said I'm not going to make it down here
So this is what I have to eat
I don't know why he ordered that
Maybe he was a test now that I'm thinking about it
He tested me
If he really wants the job
I'll eat this stuff
I also went after...
Something called the omelette shop
It was like the waffle house
But it was called the omelette shop
And I got an omelette
And it was just oil was all over the plate
It was like you dip it in the oil
It was just horrible
Just horrible to eat this stuff
I got the job
But yeah that's you know
Here are five romantic gestures that won't cost you a thing
You want to be romantic with your spouse
Or your significant other partner
You want to stay off with an unexpected voicemailor text
My wife and I do that every morning
We text three words every morning
Every morning so I'm here at work
And I get texted three words
I text her back
And we do that every morning
Take care of mundane tasks they hate to do
Compliment them on something less obvious than their looks
Make a small sacrifice to make them happy
And let them know
You're looking forward to seeing them again
I do those every morning
I think to me
We really do
I like that
Let me think of this
The parks in Philadelphia are getting criticized for installing noise machines
To make a high-pitched sound
And I get this
Only people under the age of 25 can really hear the noise
And they're designed to keep teenagers out of the parks at night
It's like a dog sound
That's horrible
Do that to somebody
You know
Maybe the tracks are dogs
For a while they played classical music out in front of their convenience stores
The kids wouldn't hang around
They played symphonies and stuff
It worked
It's like insect repellent
Teenagers classical music
