Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters' Wake Up Call.
Thank you for joining me earlier this pontoon's day morning, and I thought since this weekend is Memorial Day weekend, and we're gonna be on the water, but some of us can't afford a yacht to listen to Yacht Rock.
So I thought a more affordable vessel would be a pontoon, and then we could come up with pontoons.
Well, you're a pontoon guy.
You should know a good pontoon when you hear it.
Since you're the first caller and you've owned three pontoons, I think you're the guy to make the first
suggestion for the top of the the pontoon's playlists.
If we
get no
one I'd be living on a prayer.
In fact you know I think because Yacht Rock has kind of that late 70s early 80s you know that mellow sailing and you know some doobie brothers and Steely Dan and that kind of thing is Yacht Rock but I think some some good upbeat 80s tunes would be good pontoon's.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah,
mullet blowing in the breeze.
I think it'd be fun, you know, that good upbeat, fun kind of 80s stuff.
I don't know about you, but in the 80s, pontoons were everywhere.
They were huge in the
80s.
It was
perfect, man.
You know, you had Bon Jovi and Jay Giles and
Michael Jackson and Durand Durand blaring from your boom box.
Ah, those, those were the days, Iron Man.
Those were the days.
It was.
It was.
He was very long.
Yeah.
It was.
Where I got my Pottoon Boats was, well, my wife's dad, he passed away.
I got his and then his friend had one.
He passed away.
So I'd go back to find like, you know, find something to get his Pottoon.
Did you tie them all together and have a gigantic party on the lake?
Yeah.
Okay, good.
Yeah, let's leave it like that.
Maybe you didn't, but let's say you did.
It'd
be pretty nice with it.
Yeah, it would be.
The little party barge.
Yeah.
Yeah, party barge.
Maybe sometimes the sex barge.
You can find someone who's smaller large.
Yeah, Iron
Man's sex barge.
Hey,
we were young.
We
were free.
We had a mullet's blow
that's gonna be those are the lyrics from from my new pontoon rock it's called mullets in the breeze you see
hey
what's happening man
yeah
Well, actually, guys like girls who are having fun.
I think I speak for all guys when I say that.
Maybe not you, but me, I'm talking about, I guess, and others.
Maybe I've lost you somehow.
Maybe you actually do like to see girls having fun, but maybe I've lost you.
Or maybe I
just can't hear
you.
No, I lost ya.
Maybe he really didn't like me talking about girls having fun.
He likes the song, but he doesn't necessarily like girls having fun.
So maybe he'll call back.
Maybe he'll keep me hangin'.
I guess we'll, uh, we'll find out as we continue.
The Waters Wake Up Call.
That was me, by the way, doing the announcer voice.
I'm very versatile.
Oh!
Phone's ringing.
Maybe that's him.
Hello?
Happy June's Day, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike!
Hey!
I thought you were going to be the guy who just hung up on me.
Wanted girls just want to have fun.
And he said, not for me, obviously.
I said, well, no.
But I think as all guys, we like to at least see girls having fun.
And then I didn't hear anything.
So apparently I had lost him.
And I thought maybe you were him calling me back.
That wasn't my fault.
Well, right.
It wasn't your fault.
Not at all.
So let me ask you a question.
What would you, what would be the first song you would be listening to?
You get the pontoon out the first day of the unofficial summer season.
Well, the first thing I have to do is turn on my radio and listen to the water's wake up call.
Hey,
that is a brilliant, you know, you're the first to say that.
And you now are considered the most brilliant by just me, but still it's important.
Oh, thank you.
You're welcome.
No, thank you.
Okay.
So that'd be first.
And I would say you gotta, if you're going to be on the.
You gotta be banging on your drum, man.
Yeah.
Well,
maybe you're not fishing.
I'm sure the boat
next
to you would be a little ticked off, but
who cares?
And nobody around you could complain because your boat, your space, your noise shut up fishermen over here.
That's right.
Yeah.
That's right.
So we're doing Pond Tunes
Day, huh?
Pond Tunes Day.
Yeah.
What would you add to the Pond Tunes playlist?
I mean, keeping in line with the
a lot for that you played earlier.
I can't help but think if we're not doing banana rama then what are we
doing?
We gotta go banana rama ding dong all over the place.
You better believe it.
So what
are
we thinking?
Cruel summer for the pontoon?
That's exactly what I'm thinking.
Way to read my mind, man.
You must be like one of them geniuses or something.
Yeah, that's
what my mom said.
My mom always said I was a genius.
Yeah.
My mom liked to, she liked to say that too, but I don't think she was being serious.
Yeah,
maybe you did what I
did.
I went out immediately and measured the bus.
There you go.
Yeah.
I
didn't know
how to read a tape measure, so it didn't work,
but.
Yeah, that's got me in trouble before too.
All right, to my fellow.
Genius.
I would love to do
some banana ram.
That'd be
fantastic.
I appreciate it.
Welcome to a new day, huh?
Hey, thank you.
A nice wet new day.
I like my new days moist.
I like my new days with you on 105-7 in my truck and in my office.
Life could be a lot worse, my friend.
Thank you for that.
Now I'm getting all choked up for Clampton
stuff.
They used to be the best part of waking up with folders in my cup, and I'm thinking more like 105.7.
I
like that!
Screw Folgers!
That's right, baby.
I mean, who drinks Folgers anymore anyway?
That's right.
If it doesn't cona coffee out of Maui, it ain't coffee.
That's right.
And I've heard that.
And the song for the pontoon, you know, I was bouncing that back and forth, and I still have to think of the line, a horse with no name.
The ocean is a desert with its life underground.
So, you know, you gotta think about that.
I would never think of a horse with no name for a boat, but hey, the lyric you just quoted, I think it makes perfect sense.
Well, good
morning Woodrow.
How are you, sir?
So Woody, what
is the pontoon you would add to the pontoon's day playlist?
I know
a guy like that.
I can kneel young and rocking in the USA.
That's an 80s song and
rocking in the free world.
And that's perfect for rocking.
You know, if you go fishing on the Mississippi, you see all these pontoons pulled up on beaches, you know, where they have a little fire going and they set up their tents and they get to sleep without the water, you know, rocking them around.
So
did you, uh, did you get my, uh, I know a guy joke?
Yeah.
Okay.
Do
you think I'd put that in about a guy with a fond tune loading?
Yeah,
it's true.
Okay, so when you talk about keep on rocking in the free world You're talking about pontoons rocking on the waves as well as rock Okay, I thought I was following you on that as I was wondering if you had gotten my Noah joke, so I'm glad I'm glad that all came
through
All
right, so you're
you're
more into that kind of late 60s 70s stuff for for pontoons.
Yeah, okay.
Well, I'm gonna
I'm always up for credence and joy to the world.
So I think those would work too.
So I'm gonna, I'll put those down on our pontoon's list.
Thank you.
No, thank you, Julie.
Enjoy the
rain.
I would with it.
Well, I guess it makes good pontoon weather.
Yeah.
Well, you can get your, you can, you can bring your pontoon to work or go, uh, go to the store shopping, whatever, if it keeps raining like this.
Yeah, if you can.
Yeah.
You know, Noah should have had a pontoon.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay, Mike.
I'm gonna raft, and it's raining for Fulton.
Could you have sent her a raft?
Ooh, a raft.
Those are real cheap.
Perfect for DJs.
Go down in Mississippi with a newbie, brother.
With the newbie brothers!
Back when Dalhife spotted there was a pond too that went over.
You remember seeing that?
When was this?
I think it was in 08.
I wasn't here yet.
I didn't get here until like five years ago.
Yeah I know.
It
can work for so many different situations you know that's what that's the beauty of the pontoon and I don't know anything about your income there Buzz but can you afford a yacht?
I can't either is it YOT?
Yeah, I was calling this one in for aluminum girl.
All right.
Pontoon and your nice sunny day.
What are you doing?
You're walking on sunshine because I know that that's aluminum girl's favorite song and whenever you call for aluminum girl, it's that song.
There you go.
Whether there's a pontoon involved or not.
That would honestly fit for a great pontoon.
Can't believe nobody didn't call that in.
Actually, somebody did.
Did they?
Yeah, you did.
Don't you remember?
It was just like a minute ago.
Yeah, it was, wasn't it?
Wow.
Yeah, that's how it happens sometimes.
I know, I know.
I kind of forget why I call, why I go into the kitchen, why I come to work, even.
And you get all that short memory just like that.
Who was this?
Oh, man.
Right.
Oh, this is Mr.
Oh,
well good morning!
What can I do for you today?
Good morning, Mr. Waters.
Well, good morning, Woodrow.
How are you, sir?
Oh,
fantastic.
And a good frame of mind to contribute.
So Woody, what is the pontoon you would add to the Pontoon's Day playlist?
You know, your topic points on my way in to see the rapids today.
I
did see a guy loading two of every type of animal into his large pontoon.
I know a guy like that.
I'm thinking Neil Young and Rockin' in the USA, that's an 80s song.
Rockin' in the free world.
And that's perfect for rockin', you know, if you go fishing on the Mississippi, you see all these pontoons pulled up on beaches, you know, where they have a little fire going and they set up their tents and they get to sleep without the water, you know, rocking them around, so.
Did you get my I know a guy joke?
Yeah.
Okay.
Why do
you think I put that in about a guy with a pontoon
Yeah,
it's true.
Okay, so when you talk about keep on rocking in the free world You're talking about pun tunes rocking on the waves as well as rock Okay, I thought I was following you on that as I was wondering if you had gotten my Noah joke, so I'm glad I'm glad that all came through
