John Minow and Jim

Schmidt.

Good morning.

Happy Friday, June 13th.

It feels like April 13th.

Oh, man.

That is

cool.

Maybe April, right?

It ain't nice.

53 and 55 and Alton 54 and Green Bay high in the low 60s today, mostly cloudy scattered showers.

Come on, man.

We need summer.

We lost like a

we lost a good month of summer if you could like you know middle of may when it gets nice haven't we

yeah i don't know about a month but it at least hasn't been consistent that's the problem it's been cold hot and

come on time but this weekend this week

but you know these graduation parties you kind of hope it i

know absolutely

and um you know i was looking ahead i talked to britney on monday but you know tuesday you know big multiplying at that park across the street you know i hope you're coming to that but you know let's put the

Forecast was rain like 70% rain.

Yeah.

So I'm like, are they going to call it off?

Or might they reschedule?

They're like, um, we're busy all summer.

There's

no

rescheduling.

This is it.

So

anyway, but it looks like it's going to taper up.

But as long as it's going to be 81, which is good.

Yeah.

So.

Alright, but anyway, this is cold these next couple days.

I remember we had Dom's graduation party and the night before it was the worst storm I've ever seen blow through I mean like I said, it was like the old movie twister when neighbor stuff was just flying through the air through your yard or I lived like on Grace Hill or where that that wind would just come up It was incredible.

It was like build momentum.

Yeah.

Yeah, what I mean you could see it just build as it would come up and And then the next day it was 96.

I was too hot

Thank God we had one of those big tents.

Okay.

Yeah, but we somebody actually brought one of those big Todd What are they the farm fans the barn fans?

Yeah, the big cool cows or something right?

Yep.

Those things are a man.

Those things work great.

Oh, yeah, they move the air that holy cow But you know not in a way that it like blows you over.

Yeah, it just

Those are I mean if people have outdoor vents where it's super hot I don't know where you'd get one

right after we're about that now.

No, I don't

but But was that to cool down the cows?

Todd will keep the air moving.

Yeah.

Yep.

Keep some cool air going.

Yeah, those are amazing.

Yeah Well, we're a tiny note.

I when I tore down this one barn this one time.

Yeah, I wish I would have saved this what were the Okay, two things were

They would have like there's this one thing.

It was in a pile of junk.

So I pulled it out, but it was like almost like it was a chicken with the arrow.

Yeah.

So whether they yeah.

Yeah.

Those are cool.

But it also had wires coming out of it was or were those also lightning rods?

I'm thinking probably at some point it was.

Okay.

Yeah.

Was it like copper wire and stuff

like that?

Well, it was coated, you know, whatever.

But yeah,

probably.

I wish I would have saved that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's cool.

I love lightning rods.

You can sometimes you'll like be going through an old antique store or something

like

that and you'll find them with the glass ball still on them and stuff like that.

No

kidding.

Put those in your backyard, Jim, in your orchard.

Those are collector items, huh?

See that, you guys?

I just, you know, I see it's weed your garden day today, but hey, I went out to that orchard.

I'm doing it.

You're going to do the orchard?

I'm pretty sure.

Talk to the guy.

What was there before?

Is there ever a house there?

Where I am?

Yeah.

In that lot?

Okay, then I'm metal detecting it before you turn over the soil.

I'll give you half of everything I find.

You can have it all.

But this orchard, I look at the trees, the pears, apple, cherry trees, and the trees, they were good-sized and they'll bear fruit in like two years, which is

perfect fruit.

Well, okay, Todd, can you go back a couple of days ago, Jim, one of our guys, Jim, Jim F. He put, he's very, very into, he did a big thing for you about two days ago.

or two or three days ago, and we're really talking about growing things.

He put in there specifically the types of things you should grow and how long, I mean, he had this thing down to a science.

He put it on our Facebook.

You can find that.

I don't want a garden, Johnny.

I want you.

You don't have to.

It's all trees.

This wasn't a garden.

He was talking trees.

That's what I wanted.

But he said this specific type of tree, exactly how long it would take if it's this big.

He had this thing down.

Jim, if you could send that again.

Jim, F, I won't say last name, but Jim F.

I'll get it here.

Okay.

Yep.

Um Talk to the guy and I said, what's can I do this?

Yeah, you just got to water it a lot.

Look at that.

Well, okay, let's pick it right there I mean it but I told you I screwed up my arbor vitis because he said I water him too much Oh, yeah, I did say that.

Yeah, so it's and I had I know another guy out in Green Greenville and he'd help me but he and same thing and he goes, you know

I watered the hell out of those and they die.

Yeah, so there is a fine line.

I did get his car.

Just yeah, I I'm not kidding, you know, I planted trees one summer.

Did you?

Yeah.

Like an orchard tree?

No, well, it was a couple of months worth up in northern Minnesota.

Oh, it's where a forest fire had gone through and wiped out pretty much everything.

So they were replanting pine trees.

Yeah, right.

But it was easy.

You'd have this like spade type thing and you'd just, you know, stuff it in like that and just pull it back and you'd put in the thing and then stomp it down.

We planted like thousands

of them.

No, this is going to be eight.

Oh, that's it?

That I looked, I measured between the trees.

It's going to work.

I think that's going to be like, I don't know if this works.

I'm not going to try for three, four or five years if it doesn't work.

I'll take them all.

But I just think that's because, you know, like your grandpa.

You want something cool at your

house

versus, you know.

Yeah, no question.

The other three I'm competing with.

Do you mow that now?

It's mowed.

Okay, somebody mows it,

yeah.

And fertilizes it.

I mean, it's... So, yeah, I just... Okay.

If we put those in space and mow it right, I think that could be... I don't know, I just think they're gonna like that.

Going over to grandpa's picking some stuff and... I

don't

know.

Donna can make some maybe

pie.

I'm

not

up

here with that.

We can be old-fashioned, get the Big O apron on and... Yeah.

Donna's okay with that?

Call one of your

grandkids

shortcake.

Give her a little

bonnet.

Yeah, we're gonna do something.

I'm not done with the final presentation yet, but this guy was very helpful yesterday at Bellevue.

They did two of these orchards in Bellevue.

The trees were like 150

bucks,

but I'm gonna get a better deal.

That was what I was gonna get at next.

You can go buy some little seeds to

grow your

vegetables.

If they die, they die.

Big deal, you buy another pack of seeds.

When you're putting in that kind of money, I would have somebody that really has it down to a science when to water, how much to

water.

get the tree so in two years it's

it's good

yeah I would rather spend a little bit more money get the mature tree

yeah

we went to pickles and bags I

saw the pictures

That

is a place that was that place was awesome.

He's got that VIP lounge in there for parties and birthday parties.

I can't think of a better place to have like, okay, like I was talking class.

What a great like class reunion place that would be.

You know, if it wasn't a huge club, I mean, yeah, those pit that pickleball we put that was fun.

That's

very cool.

It was interesting seeing you guys in action.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Very much.

It was good.

It was good.

I got

cancer in my

face.

Yeah, that's right.

What about you, Jim?

I had the wrong shoes on.

I had the wrong shoes on.

I was wearing sunglasses, too.

We're afraid to scuff up the

corner.

I was going to go out to the car and get my glasses.

I wasn't sure.

That bar was pretty cool.

That's really

nice.

Huge.

That place is really nice.

Did you guys play Jeff a little bit or not?

Yeah, I did.

Yeah.

Jeff's good.

I mean, he's really

good.

I did all right against him, though.

Jeff's really good.

Our sales guy, Peter,

is

that the world's most coordinated human being?

No, no.

John wasn't very, John, you could have been nicer.

He's like, he was, Peter was trying.

And he was, he was like that.

Were you giving him hell?

Well, he wasn't giving him hell.

He just, he, the kid was trying.

I just told him to get off the

court.

He did.

He

did.

Give me somebody else I can play with.

You did.

I did.

Anyway, I want to do that once I'm feeling I've been up and running it is a really anybody in the Oshkosh area out in Oshkosh area You want to hold an event for your work party right anything like that?

It's, um, the hot dog bar.

I wonder if, can you heat up cheese, like if he cooked a bunch and you have, Bron, could you like microwave them and, um,

maybe.

I mean, at home, I wouldn't microwave them.

microwave just softens

everything.

Pete Schwabba can talk a little bit

many now streaming and

that's what I mean

20 screens it used to be one or two movies would be at a theater So it's like big deal, but everybody would go see

it.

It's also

there's

more competition.

I'm talking about like The Meyer theater there's a lot to do right like if you're gonna do something on a weekend

97.9 FM WGBW 98.3 96.5 FM WISS in the Civic Media app and I'll tell you what we had a nice time in Oshkosh yesterday.

I'm not even joking about that.

I enjoy that right down in the mornings.

Now because it's late at night.

Yeah, I

didn't like it when

it was dark o'clock.

Was

that cool?

It's great.

And it's but we're talking

When you're gone, we had somebody come in from I don't swam across something and she's like, oh my god I can't believe how aggressive the people are driving in the morning.

Oh, well that yeah,

but you know what people at 435 5 they're going somewhere.

Yeah, they got to get there, right?

I agree co-host Shannon.

Oh, Shannon did you know what I and she came from so much because She usually just goes to work at like eight.

Yeah, but she's like, oh my gosh I couldn't believe how and I was I noticed that yesterday, too I think people were kind of jockeying to get to where they were going

I think 41 is worse than 43

Because the other morning when I had to go to Manitowoc early for my doctor's appointment It doesn't seem as everybody's going for I I'll put it on I put my cruise on 78 Yeah, and I just getting that right and I just not good a jockey in between yada yada yada, but 41 man You got to have your head

on a swivel.

Well, it's it's narrower that and that's why when they widen it's gonna be great, but you're right.

It's

Yeah, you gotta watch what you're doing

and the other thing is and I'll argue this till they close the casket on me The person driving down the highway in the right hand lane Okay, does not legally have to give the person coming onto the highway access the responsibility is up to the person

On the exit on the on ramp.

It's their responsibility to adjust their speed to blend into traffic It's not the responsibility of the person on the right.

I mean, come on move over.

Why because why does it why can't the other person adjust?

Because there's other cars behind them.

No, no, no, no, no, no As a cop ask any police.

Do we have any police officers out there any police officers

professional courtesy?

Just move over man.

I almost said the F word.

I almost said the F word

bleep courtesy when some ass is coming in all arrogance screw you get out of my way I almost just gave a finger you bleep you bleep you who's next that's my attitude

the password is yeah a hat that's just how I feel all right

I think there should be some responsibility there on both ends, but what bothers me is when you're driving in the right handling, and you can't get over.

Right.

There's other traffic there.

Right.

And they won't adjust their speed.

Right.

Look,

that's different.

Yeah.

And then you're,

you know what?

Go, I don't give a crap if you have to ride on the solar.

I'll go, I won't, there's times, I'll be honest with you.

And I'm not an aggressive driver, but I'll be honest with you.

There's times I thought, okay, you're going to be a jerk about this.

You're just like expecting me to go in.

So you slow down.

I will go the exact same speed.

So go ahead, drive on the shoulder for a while until you adjust, buddy.

Boy.

That talk about road rage.

It's not that's starting that though.

No, it's not it's it's it's called

the safety responsibility

the safest The safest traffic at the same speed that's that's safety.

It's safety whether you go 90

any state police officers listening and then to make that all

work You don't want to do that slow down.

So that's the accident,

but if that's the okay, that's the state rule

Why not follow the state rule?

Well, the state rule, we should find people for big times hanging in the left lane.

That too,

I agree

with that.

Now that's where I get a little bit

aggressive.

I agree with that too.

People

are actually texting in that word like it's our Scotty Summer word.

Scotty Summer word.

Ryan, thank you.

Hey, that's one for the bingo card.

Exactly.

Write that one down.

Lisa and I were

working on that yesterday.

Were you?

Oh, yeah.

Excellent.

Yeah.

We got to do that.

I know we will.

We got to come up with the bingo card thing.

We'll

get it sponsored and it'll be great.

Yes.

All right.

Happy birthday, Mary, Kate and Ashley Olson.

They're 30.

nine years old they've turned out a little I mean they made a billion dollars but a little hard huh yep um Tim Allen is 71 does he still have a show he's he's had like nine different shows and he's the same character in every show yeah

I'm not sure I think he's got a new one coming out or they're gonna do a reboot or something like that of are they

I don't know I get some he keeps coming up with these shows and he's the same exact character yeah with just other people around him

Boy, by the way, you know, that's where what's her name got her start.

You know who?

Oh, Pamela

Anderson.

Yeah.

Pamela Anderson.

Yeah.

Okay.

That's where she got her start.

That in MTV, right?

Or was, was she on, was she on home improvement before she was on Baywatch?

Yes.

Yes.

I didn't know that.

That was her first.

Well, she was the Molson girl first.

That was where she was the Molson girl for Molson beer.

Then she did that.

All right.

And then, but here's the deal.

Have you seen her recently?

She won't wear makeup anymore.

Yeah, and she's unrecognizable.

I'm just so attractive and everything.

Yeah, but it realizes what makeup can do for a

person.

I mean really, it's incredible.

Are you thinking about maybe?

No, but I will say this.

I used to get this a lot when I was on TV on a regular basis.

And you never quite know if they're giving you a compliment or a little bit of an insult.

Yeah.

Oh, you look different than on TV.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Like, oh, thanks.

I'm better looking.

It

could be a weight.

Something.

But you get that a

lot.

Yeah.

Tim Allen, though, I told you that I met him.

He's a huge Lions fan.

Yeah, well,

yeah.

And it's got a box right next to the mayor.

Oh, OK.

His box is like, you know, there's really very little glass in between.

You can just look over there.

But anyway.

I met him after the game, and he was really true-notice kid for not being home.

Oh, really?

I was like, hey, can I interrupt him?

My kids will meet you.

Oh, wow.

But very cool guy, anyway.

Yeah, he's a huge Lions fan.

Oh, my God.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But you're right.

He's kind

of typecast.

Exactly.

Same guy all the time.

But if you're making money doing it, what do you care, right?

Exactly, right?

He was in Jackson Prison.

Yeah.

Jackson Prison, Michigan, is a bad place.

Was

it?

Yeah.

Whoo!

Very bad place.

Yeah.

And he, he was there, my buddy's there, my buddy's there for life.

And I've seen pictures of him since, kid he went to high school with.

And he just looks like he's gotten hardened.

But he rebounded from that, okay.

Yeah, absolutely.

So

these guys don't.

Right.

Yeah.

Anyway,

yeah.

Isn't that kind of bizarre when you think about the coke back in the day and you go to hardcore killer prison versus, you know.

I know.

I know.

Yeah, yeah of all the things that people do to each other we uh

Yeah, we could refocus our energies to worse.

Yeah.

Yeah, I would

agree Richard Thomas John boy Walton 73 never did much afterwards, huh?

No, no and again if you don't have to why do it?

How many you got to think about this?

So how many times could he if he goes to a ball game?

Oh God.

Hey John boy.

Good night.

Oh

Can you imagine how many people say good night John boy to him

that drove Bob Euker crazy?

Hey Bob, you're in the front row.

Hey Bob.

You're the front.

Yeah

What would people say to me that would bug me?

Or

you look marvelous.

They just be gets they get

of

the summer.

Yep, the Scotty summer text to win statewide contest.

Today is the final day for your chance to win a pair of Milwaukee Brewer's club level tickets or $100 cash plus every entry puts you into with the grand prize drawing.

How about a trip to the Wisconsin Dells area or how about a trip to Dore County?

Got the word coming up after seven o'clock this morning.

The Scotty summer text to win statewide contest with your good old radio pals, John Minow and Jim Schmidt.

Hey, welcome back.

Got a text here from Vicky.

It amounts to shows called Shifting Gears.

Thank you, Vicki.

Thank you very much.

Vicki's awesome.

Ty.

Yeah, I always when we got questions about things she's awesome She also said celebrities are also fault failing in society and that could attribute to lack of interest in movies I think so too.

I do too.

Yeah, I I kind of do too and then that's one of the reasons that we're not listening to Lisa Lisa Hale anymore because she's falling.

She's so yeah failed us so badly yesterday because

you're so

mean to us

and I

mean

Hi, how you doing?

How you doing?

I'm doing real well.

You know, you mentioned movies, but I have to say, nerds, geeks, people who love to laugh everywhere yesterday got such a. Oh,

yeah.

I heard

about that boost and we're so looking forward to 2027 because there's going to be a new Spaceballs movie from Mel

Brooks.

Is Mel Brooks still alive?

Mel Brooks

is

still alive.

He's going to be close to 100.

He

was a World War II veteran.

Yeah, he

is.

He's close.

Oh

my God.

Unfortunately, John Candy won't be there.

Right.

But.

Pullman is coming back and so is Rick Moranis.

So I'm so excited I could just...

TT I mean it is that exciting to me.

We need everybody to comb the desert report.

What did you find about nothing sir?

How about you nothing sir?

How about you man?

We found I Love Spaceballs I just that's one of those movies You just it's like I was talking if you watch 10 minutes with lethal weapon whichever one it was you remember a couple of weeks ago And it said I laugh more in 10 minutes watching this movie from 30 years ago than any movie that you could put out right now

That's... I've

never

seen... I've never seen Spaceballs, but I think...

What?

where it's just certain.

Oh, you don't have the

weapon.

No, no,

no, you're talking about naked gun, naked gun or

which

was a takeoff of lethal.

But it was a spoof or blazing saddles, which is his 10 minutes.

That's all you want to laugh more in those 10 minutes than any of these other funny.

We just got a text from Nancy, who says Bill Pullman will reprise his role as Lone Star and his son, Lewis, will join as his son in the movie.

His name will be starburst in space.

Nice.

She's excited about that.

Oh, man.

When you I'm so excited.

That's just one of those movies that I've never seen

anything.

Well, you don't need to.

No,

you don't need to watch the whole thing.

It's like any of those movies you watch 1050 minutes at a time.

Kind of like airplanes.

Same thing.

Because it's gag after gag after gag after gag after gag.

Really?

Is this funny as airplane?

Oh, there's some funny things.

I mean, all right.

I watch it.

It's probably what 30 years ago it came out.

And I can still recite 10 lines from it verbatim.

That's good.

Yeah.

They're considered the flag experts.

So they can teach you everything from how to care for your flag, when it's time to retire the flag, what to do, all that stuff.

And it's a wonderful interview with Stacey Stewart from Fly Me Flag.

You

know, I know a few of those types of things.

And one of them is, you know, a lot of people, it was like, well, when the sun goes down, you got to take your flag down.

You don't have to if you have a light on it.

Exactly.

Yeah.

Exactly.

As a matter of fact, I worked at a

TV station once that had a huge flagpole and a huge flag and we were very What's the word I'm looking for I don't we were very obsessive about making sure that light was always yeah,

little thing I collect when I go to I don't go to garage sales much or anything but

even flea markets or NT.

I always try to collect 48 star flags.

If you can find them.

Yeah, they're hard to find.

And you know, the way you can tell the difference is they are completely symmetrical.

They're completely a rectangle, whereas obviously in the, you know, the 50 flags, they're off spaced, but they are completely boom, boom.

So they're 49.

40 I've never seen a 49.

I

know this 48 for sure

right 40.

I want was there ever a 49 star flag
