Hour 1: Dearly Beloved, we are gathered today before this toilet…

Good morning, Wisconsin. Good morning, world. It's a new day. Thanks for kicking it off

with us right here at 97 5 FM 13 20 AM WF HR locally grown radio. Got your host James

Jay. I am joined by. Stop laughing at me. It's not my fault. You got, well, okay, it's

kind of my fault. You got new headphones. It's totally your fault that we got new headphones.

Stop it. Our head of news. Melissa Kay. Good morning. Had a production set. Have

had good morning and ahead of everything else. All of you out there. I hope you guys

knew that by the way that you guys were in charge of everything else. We're waiting

on our schedules. Can they buy the next set of headphones? Because I don't like these.

Give me a chance. Give me a chance. Oh, they're squishing my head. Everybody, welcome to

a great return of our good friend Brittany Mellon. Yeah. Brittany, it's okay to hear

from you. How you doing? I'm good. I'm good. Okay. So I kind of wanted to be like you.

I've been practicing this. Are you ready for this? The morning, Wisconsin rapids. Good morning,

warm winter weather. Yeah. All right. Actually done. Nice. I got up my game. That was good.

That was the first tape. It is. It is. It doesn't look like it is looking like we're going

to have some warmer temperatures coming up today. Not so much, but they are right around

the corner. It looks like. Yeah. Actually, today you're going to hit some of them. We're

going to hit the mid 50s. Wow. Wow. Letting those 50s, I guess. Short weather. Melissa, you

should do it. Short weather. Yes. All right. Shorts and headphones. Nothing else. Nice.

My mother is wearing the bikini because it's so warm here. Oh, my goodness. No, we just

have a bright and beautiful warm week. We're going to hit the mid 50s today and tomorrow,

but be ready for Friday. It's going to be a little cold out there. You see temperatures

dropping to highs in the low 30s where we should be for this time of year. All right. Nice.

Cold temps. Is this an outlier this year, Brittany, and I'm not asking you to look in your

crystal ball and predict a weather future or anything, but just in conversations that

I've heard from other meteorologists and stuff that this isn't something that we can

own next summer or next winter. You can plan on it being summer like that kind of thing.

Correct. No. This is definitely a very extreme outlier. In fact, this is the warmest winter

that Wisconsin has ever had since we've been taking records. Now, of course, we have

strong almenios and like our record for today is 57 degrees set back in 1930. So 1930

was a strong almenio here. So was 91 and a lot of these years were seeing a lot of similarities

of these spikes and temperatures and all of that, but we never saw it. Hold on for so

long and throughout the entire season. So this is definitely an outlier, extreme, strong

almenio here. Did you just say almenio, Brittany? Did you?

Almenio. All of the tropical storms must bow before almenio. You saw almenio. But those

of you who don't have almenio, almenio is Spanish for venenio.

Classic. That's just a glad idea. I just couldn't help it. I almost pops in my head almost

every time I hear a percent. Me too, man. I can't help it. Thank you for that segway

Brittany. Appreciate it. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. That was fantastic. I love Chris Farley.

We love being able to talk to you again, Brittany. Glad you were able to get a hold of us.

Looking forward to talking again tomorrow. Thanks so much for the forecast today. Yeah,

sounds good. Have a great day, everyone. Thanks, Brittany, you too. She's the best. That's

awesome. That's great. I appreciate that. That's a pretty good thing. She's a team player.

We got good things lined up for you this morning. Not only are we going to figure out how

to use our new headphones. No, throwing these across the room. But my glasses don't even

sit on my face right now. No, I'm sorry. They sounded really good. What I was listening

in the sound was really good. That's fine. It's my job. We have got Apple. Apple is in

the news about their phones. Not wanting to put them in rice. We got to get that a little

bit. They don't go well with rice. Maybe some egg noodles. That's weird. Do you say

that, man? I'm sorry. I got a pause for a second here. So yesterday I was lucky enough

I had dinner with my daughter, Brea and her husband and my mom and dad. We went out

to eat, had dinner, nice meal and everything. But we were, Brea was curious if I was interested

in other foods like buffets and that kind of thing and sushi and stuff. I had sushi when

I was a kid. I probably haven't had it since then. It is going to shock absolutely nobody

in the world. I am not a big sushi guy. I just haven't really, not to be fair. I haven't

tried a whole lot of it and maybe this newer palette I have might enjoy it and stuff.

But I said this and it's the weirdest look I've ever gotten from my daughter. She just

kind of like, what? Do you know your father? Maybe you know I am picky. I am at everything.

But the whole crowd, everybody talking about it. My dad likes it. I thought my dad would

be my partner on this. I look to him right away and I'm like, I know he's got me. He's

just looking at me. He's like, you're on your own. That's the look on his face. It's just

like you're on your own. I don't know if he really likes sushi, but he's certainly

with a log with the ride. I was all up. I hold up that one. Is that that foreign of a thing

though? And that's a kind of a funny way to put it. Oh wow. Send your hate letters to

me. Yes, please. James. The ill-efficient. I heard it. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, sushi to

me. It actually got me down a rabbit hole on sushi that there is all these different

like interesting facts about it and everything. Sushi actually was a street food. It was like

one of the first street foods. Like now we have our taco trucks and all these things and

stuff. Sushi was doing that long before we were doing these kind of things. And it would

have stayed on the street as a main food, except it was the, what was it? The earthquake

of 1923. Previously, sushi was exclusively a street food, but the devastation from

the quake destroyed so much of Tokyo, the real estate prices dropped, allowing sushi chefs

to afford brick and mortar restaurants. Oh wow. And they've kind of never gone back

since. There's some spots in Japan where they have kind of just a guy and kind of hanging

out a door almost and stuff. And he's serving sushi. There's a little bits of that because

apparently from what I don't understand sushi is a little bit easier to make in some ways.

Well, I mean, if it's raw, you don't have to cook it. Exactly. Yeah, yeah, which makes

sense, but I didn't really think about it. I didn't think about it that way. And I don't

know is there any, is anybody else like what you just said there, Melissa, eating something

that is not cooked that I like outside of cookie dough? I don't really do that very much.

That's not safe either. No, no, yeah. I found that out late. I don't like, I'll eat it.

Like I will eat raw sushi. I'll try it, but I prefer the cooked sushi rolls. Okay.

Okay. And is that what? Sashimi? Shishimi is actually technically the raw fish. Oh,

okay. So sushi is not, but Shishimi technically is the raw stuff. Yeah. Seth, I know Minnesota's

famous for their sushi. Yeah. I am. No, I love it. I love it. Well, and yeah, so I love

sushi. And I said many times, you know, I'm also an oyster guy. I love raw oysters.

Oh, yeah. You have mentioned that. So we are a oyster Rockefeller. Yeah. Okay.

You can know the raw ones. Yeah. Yeah. Great. It's not on the shelf. Why do people keep

calling at that? People like that. No, no, it's good stuff. But anyway, like my dad says,

though, you can't just, you know, like take a goal and let it slide down. You have to bite

it at least once. Wow. Wow. Wow. Yeah. That's almost worse. That's that's a good one. Yeah.

So anyway, anyway, I was saying waking your appetite, your morning's appetite. Yeah. Yeah.

We are, we will catch in with, check in with a couple of other things. We have a health

hack about workouts that you might enjoy. That's coming up. Of course, the L. Cafe

birthday and anniversary club around the corner. After our news break, we will hear from

our friends over our quality post printing, getting our wicked, awesome word of Wednesday.

Oh, yeah. Nice. Little bit of entertainment news for you. The Beatles are in there along

with the, the Colkins. Not just one of them, the Colkin brothers. Okay. We're going to

get an interesting story about that. And we're going to let you know it's new on your

small screen tonight. And then a little bit later in the nine o'clock hour, I want to

get into the weirdest things. Patients, patients have brought to the ER. Oh, boy.

And to tag on to that, if we have time, the 10 weirdest things agents have found that

the airport security, according to TSA, that could be interesting. That could be a loaded

one. And then why they had to go to the hospital. No, it's good. But nice. Yeah. We, we

start as a fullest romantic in a wonderful place, a, well, a gas station bathroom. I hear

me. We're all good things start. Yeah, yeah, hear me out. And Ohio couple held their wedding

in an unusual venue, a Kentucky gas station's viral disco bathroom. Oh, oh, the disco

bathroom is so bad. Does that make it better? We, uh, we did this story a little while back

about the disco bathroom in Kentucky. We're kind of hoping that this would start a trend

like all these like gas stations all around. We just start doing a little disco bathroom

to switch in. Yep. Instant disco. Logan Abney and Tiana Alistak, uh, who live in Cincinnati

in the Cincinnati area, exchange vows in the bathroom at the hop shops location in Verona.

It is Verona. I mean, there's a little, yeah, that the same Verona is, you know, the

famous, uh, store. The store's bathroom went viral online for a big red button that

causes a disco ball to switch on and dance music to play. Uh, Tiana from the first dance

in the disco bathroom to this moment, I vow to hop through life with you. Oh, wow.

He's through the funk beats and mellow melodies every rhythm in life. Albany said in his

vows. Oh, sorry. Uh, got something in my eye. A little bit mad. That's so mad.

So mad. The, the couple pressed the red button at the end of the ceremony to share their

first dance. Oh, see, I like, I like different weddings like that. It's creative. It's cute.

It is. It's creative. I'm not going to attend a wedding in a bathroom though. Okay. That

would be just a little nobody invite me. Yeah. That's where you're throwing your wedding.

I don't want to be there. Yeah. Well, the reception's not going to be there. They had

the first dance in there. Yeah. The first dance in there. And the reception was held

in the gas station. Well, I mean, pick out whatever you want. It does seem like a good

place to have a, a decent place to have a reception before I rise for everybody to rent

a quick trip. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. It's called corporate headquarters. Hey, I want to rent

your quick trip for like two hours. Yeah. Somebody has got to have been married in a quick

trip in Wisconsin. Like some of them find out. Yeah. Actually, I follow a quick trip enthusiast

group. And there is a young girl who is in love with quick trips. I think she's like in

maybe fifth grade somewhere in there. Yeah. And she wants to get married at a quick trip.

And her mother put out a request to people or told people about this. And so brides and

grooms have been going to great trips and taking their picture there and posting them

on this group for that girl. Oh, my gosh. Love, love, love. Well, I tell you what then

we've got something in, you know, like 15 years and we will still be here. We'll do

that story. How he said that in our good stories. We guys remember this 15 years ago,

yeah. Talk about this. I'm shut up, James. I'm so sick of you and you're stepping

over my walker, your random facts, your Simpson stuff to stop it. This is going to be

our last morning show apparently everybody. But we have a good story of the day. A little

girl got married in the quick trip. There we go. And all comes full circle. We can't

have to do the show until that at least. Yeah, exactly. We will get ready for the LKFA

two $20 gift certificates from our friends at alcafe. I can't wait till the 29th and see who

has birthdays that that normally most years cannot qualify for this. So yeah, that's going

to be awesome. When I was growing up, I like begged for my birthday to be a leap year.

I get to get to change it. I know. I know. But I really, really thought I'd be able to like

work something out, make it happen. I don't know why. Yeah, I don't know why I thought I could.

But for a good little stretch there, I did. Taking a look at our celebrity birthdays here.

Sophia Turner is 28. Sansa Stark in the Game of Thrones movies. Jean Grey and X-Men,

Apocalypse and X-Men Dark Phoenix. Good actor. Yes. Good actor.

Yes, I'd like to see more work of hers. Because I really, I mean, I've seen her as Jean Grey

in those X-Men movies, but I don't feel like I really saw her doing anything too different.

And her work at Sansa was very good. I'd like to see her do something a little more outside,

just to see her range and see what you can do. Sure. But she's good. Corbin Blue is 35.

Disney's high school musical and jump in. He was also on Dancing with the Stars and finished

second two Glee's Amber Riley. Okay. Elliot Page is 37. He is Vanya and Victor on the Netflix

series The Umbrella Academy. Oh, yeah, yeah. Many of you might remember Elliot from Juno

when she was in Juno when she was a she and she was in Juno and really like

came out the gate just a lot of excitement about her career, a lot of excitement about the work

that she could do and has done as it's turned out because she's done some really great work

in a very, very talented actor. I also think one of the braver people I have ever seen in the

industry to have a career as an actor is something I cannot express to you how difficult it is to

accomplish. Especially if you are starting from ground zero and you have no connections or

anything like that like she did to get where she did in Juno being an Oscar nominee actor and

in movies and everything to have the stature that she did as a woman and as a known commodity

as that woman and then to feel a certain way and to something that you felt your whole life

probably and to change and in your career and to go a different direction like that like that

I'm just talking about entertainment wise society wise there's a whole other layer to that but as

an actor just just stripping it down looking at it in that in this industry in that way

it's one of the bravest things I've ever heard of like and it's a creditor his talent that

he not only is he continuing to find work but I think it's also noteworthy that the industry has

been very okay cool right you know right so we ain't got we're not going to send you any of these

female parts anymore I guess you know like there's been some very like a very like cool transition

with this that's nice I think it's really cool and incredible on the umbrella Academy great job

by the writers on that team to to be able to shift her character and she thought she was going to

be kicked off the show they're like no that could have happened yeah yeah yeah and she had no problem

with that actually she was she understood they were like no we're going to write this into the

story and they did and it's really that is really awesome yeah it worked it wasn't like forced you

could tell it was oh oh actually this kind of worked with the storyline and everything and it

was pretty good like incredible like a credit to all of them Charlotte churches 38 she's only 38

wow she seems like she's been around forever I know she started when she was like what 12 or

one of the most sought after if not the most sought after director in the game right now Jordan

peel is 45 most of us know him from key and peel that he was the twilight zone host and Oscar

nominee for writing a directing get out and us fantastic fantastic mind and and really a lot of

fun also sneaky funny like I feel like people are forgetting that about him because of his

work was stupid it yeah right he is our Alfred Hitchcock he I I feel comfortable saying that he

is he has gone to the route of where so many people nowadays they want to do horror and they want

to do blood and guts blah blah blah all that and he is well that's not scary what scary is not

knowing what's behind the door what scary is that sound you hear in the middle that yes yes what

you're imagination you don't have to spend money on special effects and green screens and everything

you just make a sentence the sound of a shower going on and in a curtain closing like Hitchcock

knew how what those didn't that the curtain the railing the noise that would make it stuff like oh

just it that's true horror that's true suspense anybody can make a big old blood and guts movie

everything I mean God we've seen that instead let's make household things scary yeah yeah the things

you use every day exactly that's the scariest stuff right to to that point Melissa I feel bad

actually for the actress I always forget her not always but I forget her name sometimes the the

actress from psycho um Janet Lee thank you Janet Lee she famously didn't take showers the rest of

her life like it was it was it was it was a it was a phobia of hers she developed because of that

movie where she just took baths the rest of her life she did say in an interview I think I've

late in her life that when she would stay at friends houses and if they didn't have a bath she would

take a shower but she would lock the doors she would put a door a chair in front of the door like

just you know well to you know embody that character you have to feel the terror that that

person would be feeling right yeah so that yeah that would have an imprint on your brain to be

fair Hitchcock was famously you know uh didn't care about his actors yeah yeah psyche or anything he

just wanted the shot he just wanted to get his thing kind of James Cameron before you know before

that Jennifer love he would his 45 today wow good actor yeah she's I like her she's done a good

job for her same age as her well let's see here Kim coats a 66 Alexander uh trig on uh

tig on uh sons of anarchy another good actor right there and did a good job in that uh Jack Coleman

is a 66 Clair's father on heroes he was in vampire dynasties uh diaries and he was on dynasty

competent there it is yeah yeah uh the great Mary Chapin carpenter is 66 today she's awesome

anthony Daniels see 3PO he's the only actor to be in all 10 Star Wars movies 11 if you count solo

where he was the human slave tech in yes yeah out of the out of the costume yeah that was really

cool I I went back and watched that scene a couple of times just to see him uh David Geffen is 81

co-founder of Dreamworks with Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg um that went on to do some

pretty good stuff Geffen records yeah definitely uh big acts in the 70s and the 80s yeah and

eight billion dollars oh yeah I believe something yeah yeah uh and then some people no longer with us

and two amazing legends right here first Alan Rickman born in 1946 passed away in 2016

a lot of younger audience will know him as seven or a snake in the uh Harry Potter movies older

people remember him and Hans Gruberm die hard uh Lazarus and galaxy quest the voice of god and dogma

judge turpon and sweetie Todd the caterpillar and Tim Burton's Allison Wonderland um and of course uh

the the uh share from chef of Nottingham and council Christmas one of the greatest uh villain

actors ever man and just greatest character act I mean you can't label what he was what he did

he wasn't quickly down under oh was he I didn't I didn't remember that I don't know that wow uh he's

one of those actors too that I think about sometimes when I see a movie and I see an actor and it's

not a judgment on them or their performance but I think oh Alan Rickman should have had that

yeah yeah I got 100% Alan Rickman should be in that part yeah he had a certain look and I think

that's why he played such a good villain it's not that he was you know he he was a you know a nice

looking guy but he had there was a certain structure to his face that made people think oh he's

a villain and he played it really he played it up really well but it also made him likeable yeah

as a as a just your average Joe nice guy uh I really liked the as much as I loved him as a villain

and all that I really liked movies like galaxy quest in that where you got to see a little

lighter side of him a little humor yeah he was incredibly versatile but we didn't get to see half

of his versatility um I've heard a lot about his theater work in that night one of the things

that I like doing when when we're remembering people like this is certainly going back and

watching scenes but one of the things I do with Alan Rickman is go back and watch an interview

with Daniel Radcliffe and it was it was a really impactful where he talks about how Alan Rickman

stayed with him and the kids in the cast for hours and hours afterwards and that first movie and

the first couple of movies or whatever um when they started to get more famous you know it got

harder to be out and stop out and about in town with their parents and stuff Alan Rickman helped

the parents along with the kids dealing with a lot of that stuff like you you talk about above

and beyond things Alan Rickman was almost a definition of that from all accounts he was a sweet

sweet person and just a really really likeable kind of guy and everything it always seems like

so many of the great villains are really nice people yeah and the great the wonderful room

Michaela hand born in this day in 1934 pestaway in 2010 golden girls uh ruse passing uh left Betty

white is the only golden girl standing until Betty pestaway um room Michaela and of course of course

famous from uh golden girls but if you really want to see route Michaela hand like her stretch her

self acting wise watch nonsense there is a wonderful wonderful version of that online I believe still

of her and I can't think of the other actors there's two other big names in that too but she steals

the show yeah she's so good I feel like uh the the role of sometimes for this happens for actors

she gets a uh a character like um not uh not blanche um was it blanche she played on

yes I believe she gets character like that and gets kind of typed that way and stuff but she um

she was so much more versatile than that yes she could do so much more than watching nonsense yeah

yeah you'll see it yeah she she originated the role too of I think it was mother superior if I

remember correctly and she she was in several subsequent sequels on stage or that so yeah she

was great in that yeah that's one of those plays I'd love to see come back I haven't seen that one

in a long time oh yeah it's been done on a lot of community I've been a part of the Christmas one

sublimation printer so we can do a couple different things depending on the the content of the

shirt or the garment and colors but we can do sublimation which actually burns even's

right into the shirt you know so you don't feel it's there wow right but we still can do vinyl as

well depending on the shirt in the heat press it on there hats you know sweatpants anything we did

some work for rapid signs another one of our local partners that we deal a lot with uh and did

just did a whole bunch of shirts and things for them that was kind of complicated we get a first

order and it's like well in front something on the sleeves on the backs so we're figuring this

out and luckily they came out really good Heather again it's tremendous what she does and

and so they came out really good so when you see rapid signs guys and girls going around town

when you tell them boy that looks great yeah definitely you tell them that right okay so we're

doing some work in uh yeah and we can start and get some other increase and uh we've done

some small onesy twosy things which we can do yeah we can you know that's a beauty of

kind of like what we are as a printer right yeah so we do we can do small pin jobs like we do

in the pin industry but we also take on tens of thousands of print you know the worth of

pin jobs you know so commercial printer but we're a small town commercial printer that looks

to be adaptable and that last part I'd like to tag on too because uh being local you can do

things like you and Melissa just did or Melissa gets an idea can ask you and you can go ahead and

run through it you can't do that with a lot of corporation kind of thing where it's this is what we do

this is the price sector etc etc so that's why we encourage people when it comes to any of your

printing needs join our friends over quality plus printing getting your words out right here in

rapids fail we have made people wait a long enough I have I have a bartender I tried to stretch out

as long as I could we got to get to the wicked awesome word of words oh yeah the wicked awesome

way in it and you know I left my reading spectacles in the car so we just got to wing it a little

chose this week is win some win some good one win some w i n s o m e which is kind of what we're

doing here all right we're being win some general pleasing and engaging uh charm and innocence

cheerful lighthearted all words that mean win some yeah all right I'm morning shows very

yeah I was thinking on the way over it's perfect it's like a win some day out there it's done

the way I'm putting it yeah yeah that is a nice way to put it in the other four letter

weren't you yeah the other ones we we've heard yeah well you just shut those at your radio

win some let's all be win some today it's right that's an inspirational word too I like that

that's kind of like you know it's not like you win some you lose some in this case it's just

you win some you win if if I didn't want to promote you guys so much I'd go right to break that

was the right to break moment right there we we always love our right to break moments that was it

uh feel uh when it comes to uh things coming up uh because it may already feel like spring out

there but we're not there yet uh but we we want people looking ahead we want people thinking about

that um it certainly bring your printing needs to go to plus when it comes to graduation parties

you know not totally biased but mostly biased is uh we have the best designer in Wisconsin sitting

in the office next to me her name is Tracy Bielo and uh she's been doing it for over 25 years and

she is just fantastic yeah fantastic not only in what she does creativity wise but she is just a hard

worker and and does not accept not good work for like a better word she is very meticulous

she'll straighten me out in her if I know we're not doing it that way you know uh she's just

fantastic and if you get her involved in your project you're not going to be disappointed because uh

awesome word of Wednesday shout out to quality post printing get your words out over there wow

excited about the apparel printing yeah that's gonna be really cool yeah i have something that i

have been having on the back burner for years oh right i get to get it made haha i want to make

uh what the muppet shirts uh with brie and i want like i want a pocket and i want our the logos

the like if hey faces coming out of the pocket that's um that's um that's like as far as i got

let's dive but apparently all you got to do is talk to Tracy yeah yeah she'll get it take

you can take the ball and run with it for sure um a new study so if you can't find time to exercise

because you're too busy with work or life in general or any of these things above um just stop

using your weekends to relax a new study that's a terrible idea yeah it's not going to get much

better baby oh boy a new study found you can skip working out monday through friday and still

get in shape if you go really hard on the weekend yeah i knew that i knew that i didn't know that i

like i didn't know that but i'm not doing it one of the first stories carl and i did when when

the inmates are running the first running the asylum around here was uh this this like a

they spent close to a million dollars on this study and that the end results chocolate is addictive

well yeah we could have told you that like any seventh grader could have told you that to like

i mean yeah yeah yeah i did open a package of m&m's you are going to finish them

whatever yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it's a certain things i feel like we didn't need the thousands

of thousands of dollars to tell us this and everything but uh this study is is kind of coming

in the in the same regard it um it looked at a weekend warriors people who like to cram all their

exercise into a few days and found that's fine too the goal just needs to be at least 150 minutes

of exercise a week however you choose to put spread that out or jam it all into one or two days

that's kind of up to you in your body that means you could work out 30 minutes a day five days a

week or one hour and 15 minutes two days a week uh or you know like some people 21 minutes

in 25.7 seconds seven days a week no more no less i want to find that person it's like like right

on there i'm sure as long as you get those 150 minutes in it might not matter weekend warriors

in the study got an average of just under 148 minutes of exercise on the weekend and it's still

zapped belly fat and kept themselves in shape the last part kind of sucks though you need you may

need to work out harder if you want to go the weekend warrior route those people did get the same

number of minutes in as a five day uh as a five day crowd but the workouts tended to be higher

intensity so not like a brisk half an hour walk or anything or we're talking pump an iron here

and that right yeah running yes yes yes i find the study interesting but i also feel like we

knew this like i know i did and not not by science but because doing it well that and i think

that this has been in the news you know periodically throughout like i mean we were talking about this

10 15 years ago right right like you can just take all week off and then work on the weekend

out work out work out and we can but but the but the problem is is when you also have to work

on the weekends yes then how the how the heck do you fit in yeah then you're you're having some

issues so i'm going on vacation so i can work out right i'm proud yeah yeah that's it's just

getting she you're gonna get in shape in two weeks and boom maybe i'm good for life yeah well

what the way when you walk in that door after that vacation watch out everyone that's right

standing coming in um i i the first time i saw the ocean i got so excited and i was about

in my late 20s i'll say uh oh no no no no i'm sorry i was i was uh 21 21 or 22

it's really excited i'm i'm all i i see the ocean and i'm running through it like i

am immediately i hit the sand and i go booking into it and as soon as i get into the water right

up a little bit up to my chest i realize i've got stuff in my pockets oh no i had my phone

in my pockets i smoked back then so i had a full pack in my pocket i like you know a lighter

the whole thing um and of course i i you know do the shameful walk out of the water

uh and and through everything and i wanted to be in the moment so i just threw everything

on the towel and i jumped back into the water because i didn't want it to ruin the moment

i had everything it was very cold so i wanted to get back in the water that was the pacific right

yeah very cool um very cold but uh i learned in that moment oh my phone might not be dead i could

just throw it into rice yeah and it worked it actually did work yeah yeah we've known this for

how many years yeah now piggybacking on that mixing water with electronics is bad okay everybody

new splash thank you water is wet electronics wet bad we covered the hard-hitting stories here

mixing water with uncooked rice is good so what about mixing uncooked rice with waterlogged

cell phones um you've probably heard the hack about putting your wet cell phones in rice especially

if you've panicked and after dropping your phone in in the shower or the something like that

but apple is warning you not to do that don't do it don't do it don't do it okay just just buy a new

phone from us right yeah i phones are more sophisticated than they used to be and some can handle

certain levels of water they now have a liquid detection warning that tells you if your

usb seaport gets wet um there are things you can do dry the phone with a cloth and tap the phone

gently to drain water from the ports leave the phone in a dry area with airflow and avoid putting

cables inside until it is completely dry the last part i think is is actually helpful yeah yeah

but they say don't insert a foreign object such as a cotton swab or a paper towel into the connector

okay and don't put your iPhone in a bag of rice doing so could allow small particles of rice to

damage your iPhone um plus iPhones very picky eaters very picky not big fans of rice big

bond the rice you know you know i would say who doesn't like rice but i i know somebody who doesn't

like rice so i can say that i know i know a few people too but so you know i that's interesting

though i wonder so we actually have at my house we have you know those those silicate packets

oh yeah yeah that you get with you know everything now keep it like vitamins and yeah we

threw a bunch of those into a bag and that because they kind of act the same way they pull moisture

out of things so i wonder if that would be safer than rice because there's no particles no

particles just pull in yeah yeah so start saving those packets it says do not eat on them

yeah please don't much know that it's not edible just save them i'm really glad they did that

except for one episode mst3k yes yes yes cereal made up like the packets what um

sorry i'm not really sure what to do with this uh oddity this odd story here this is an

interesting one an electric engineer student in germany took a toy car designed for a child to

ride and modified it to reach a speed of 92 miles an hour whoa whoa uh Marcel Paul an electric

engineer student at fuba university applied sciences said that he spent 10 minutes conducting

research and modifying the toy car into a high minute vehicle feels like it should take a lot

longer than that and and yes we do have video of this oh boy you'll have sub video

oh wow he looks like he's sitting on on it it's 80 bitty but it is really I mean we're talking

toy car oh my gosh he's so fast and he's got a whole suit on and a helmet yeah yeah and he's

on a racetrack wow that looks like a lute you know like the lute laying down yeah i don't know how

popular this got to where like if it's common knowledge but i know in california one of the big

things was getting a skateboard or getting something like that laying on your back and going down

the hills like in san francisco in that i've seen that there yeah yeah like that but like street

luching they call it oh my god that's the first thing i thought how to die in san francisco

sickly yes lots of ways to die in san francisco tell me about it one of one of sanatris like

you know songs it's not well known yeah it didn't go it was on the b side it was on the b side

i left everything in san francisco not just my heart um i i i i think that this is kind of a

cool idea but i i think he missed the mark um what about the the bikes we used to ride uh the

little uh talk car cyclical see all the big wheels big wheels big wheels that's what i was

trying to think of the wheels um they had a break they they they they had all kinds of stuff like

didn't work but it had a break no it did not work or they wore out really quick real quick i don't

know why those wore out so quick i'm not supposed to take them down hills guys yeah that was fun

that was fun um i i want to see a big wheel in the with this an engine on it i think that'd be

an interesting one 110 miles away he modified it though he did like well i guess modifying his

adding yeah he did yeah but i only took him 10 minutes yeah that's ridiculous yeah that's amazing

yeah that seems crazy uh then it would only take him 10 minutes i wonder what he because he

doesn't go into details in the article of always specifically death smart that he doesn't yes

nobody should be doing this what are they teaching an engineering college of germany that's

what i want know what are they doing over there Paul took his uh finished car to the um uh race

track and was clocked at a speed of 92.24 miles per hour fast enough to earn the Guinness World

Record for the fastest ride of the toy car modify that's where that's where we were going okay

well record all right of course uh i'll come back i come back it does i'll come back around we

will uh get out of here uh for a moment we're going to be back with some great stuff we have

got entertainment news for you got some little scissors us up to and a little bit later i want to

get into with you got in the nine o'clock hour the weirdest things patients have brought to the

ER oh boy coming up right here on the morning show at WFHR
