Morning Show Banter and Lake Geese
Speaker 2Now, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to rise and shine and get your morning started with Alabama's award-winning morning show.
Speaker 3My doctor said that could be the reason for my rash. I'm literally screaming right now.
Speaker 2Broadcasting live from high atop Alabama's beautiful Sand Mountain. Good morning, please welcome your hosts. Barry, what cologne are you going to go with? It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries and Holland. Now, before we do this, let's go over the ground. Rule. Rule number one no touching of the hair or face.
Speaker 1I just like waking up to the sound of your sweet voice. See you on the field, superstar.
Speaker 2Oh, could you turn it up?
Speaker 1please, good voice, see how to feel, superstar. Oh, could you turn it up please? Good morning, it's 6.09. I think I need an extra squirt of Sex Panther this morning. Oh, that's a shock. Well, no, I'm just paranoid. I stink, I know I stink, I'm sorry, Well, he can't Okay.
Speaker 4So his armpit is steri-stripped down to his skin so he cannot physically lift his shoulder because of the surgery and because of the tape.
Speaker 1Right. So you've made a little pocket where you can't reach your armpit, because I didn't realize how hard it is to wash your armpits, both arms, because my left arm is not supposed to go above a certain level, so it's hard for the left arm to wash the right one and my left one. I can't pull it away from the body too far because it hurts, and I'm not supposed to get these stitches wet until they take them out, uh-uh, and so I just do the best I can.
Speaker 4Yeah, and you said you had blood this morning.
Speaker 1Yeah, I finally said okay, I'm washing it today. Yeah, I finally said okay, I'm washing it today. Yeah, that's all I've tried to clean it the past few days?
Speaker 4Did you put deodorant on it? I tried. I told you not to.
Speaker 1That's another thing that's hard to do. You can't why.
Speaker 4Because you've got that's the infection right there. That's germs, that can be germs. Oh, Every time you swap that deodorant you're putting germs. You don't listen to nothing. I say.
Speaker 1I tried, but anyway, I'm going to need some Sex Panther by Odeon and we'll fix this right up. It's 610. A beautiful morning Love. This morning, especially compared to yesterday, the weather was horrible. Today it turned out to be a nice afternoon. It was hot yesterday afternoon.
Speaker 1God, it was so hot, it was so humid, but we got our weekly or daily walk-in anyway and I'm looking at the video now because we were down at Lake Guntersville Boy, there was a crowd and it was good to see so many people outside just in the water, picnicking, having fun and just a good crowd all around enjoying just some time off of work or whatever off of whatever you were doing.
Speaker 4And then there's always these ducks at Lake Guntersville, but it was like it was weird. Wait, wait, wait. I have to correct you, they're geese Geese. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1I just thought of ducks. I don't know, but there's always these geese at Lake Guntersville and there's like we noticed these babies a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4Oh yeah, Like little beady babies.
Speaker 1Yeah, and the little babies growing. So as we were going down one of the paths, they were like right in the middle of the path and wouldn't move they were all just sitting there, they weren't on the grass, they were on the walking trail yeah, they didn't want to be bothered no.
Speaker 1So you said let's video this, and I'm counting now there's probably 15 to 20 of them all gathered around and as we began walking towards them, of course you got the usual the hissing and the. The mamas I guess mom was, I don't know, I can't tell. Who knows they were hissing. And the mamas I guess mamas I don't know, I can't tell who knows.
Speaker 1They were hissing and it's like a snake. When you hear this, it's creepy. You'd have to flip it upside down. Yeah, flip it upside down and see if you can see it. It's a goose, but we got a video of it and I thought it was so cool because they were all just like walking in front of us like I know they're so cute.
Speaker 4It's like they're little preteens now yeah they went from being baby chicks last week to this week. They're preteens. But we have some good comments. Linda said I hope you recover quickly, barry, but those are geese. Sorry, we know, I know, I know. Cameron says look at all those chickens, those chickens yeah, zelda johnson, thank you for this.
Speaker 1I needed a smile and I hope you're taking care of yourself and resting.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1I'm doing my best, and it was fun just to see them because there were so many of them.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1They're everywhere.
Speaker 4They're everywhere and I love it. I guess it's just that time of year springtime baby chicks.
Speaker 1Yeah, love it. Time baby chicks. Yeah, love it. So that's on there. You put something else up. Earlier this morning we were talking about uh, you asked me what's something unusual, weird about you? And I said well, pretty much everything, just pick one oh, yeah, but you said what really stands out and I said I don't know that we were down at the lake.
Speaker 4I said I can't swim yeah, this is crazy to me. So tell the story about your brothers. Oh yeah, that you told me. I remember we were little.
Listener Quirks of the Day
Speaker 1I don't know how old I was. I'll never forget what happened was we were at that I think it was Lake Guntersville, I don't remember exactly. It was just a lot of water and they had these old orange life jackets everybody used to wear. They were old, so they put one on me and I didn't know how to swim. They said, oh, you're fine, just threw me in the water and down I went. This life jacket did not want to work. It did not work and luckily one of them jumped in and pulled me up and I was scared of the water ever since and they never took me to have swimming lessons, nothing like that. So I love the water you like the water I would go to the ocean, get out in the ocean.
Speaker 1You just don't swim.
Speaker 4I just don't swim so do you go the deep end and pools?
Speaker 1I know, oh, no.
Speaker 4You don't even like walk the wall? No.
Speaker 1You know what I'm talking about. My luck, I'm going to fall off that wall. No, slide down the wall, nope, nope. But I made sure both kids, when they were young, they had swimming lessons.
Speaker 4Yeah, oh yeah. That's something that's always scared me to death is kids in water. Yeah scared me to death is kids and water. Yeah, it scares, it don't matter. Vacations are not even fun for me because I'm afraid of kids and water you've got to watch all the time. You can never take a break vacations are no longer vacations when you have a few seconds.
Speaker 4Yeah, yeah, anyway, mine was. Is that I still sleep with my baby blanket? Okay, every night I have to have it. I have to have it in my arms. Has to be touching me and there's.
Speaker 1that wasn the first thing that came to mind, because I don't know what you sleep with, but something you do that I notice, which is unusual when we go eat anywhere, you don't use silverware.
Speaker 4No, I have to use plastic. I cannot stand metal in my mouth.
Speaker 1Metal straws, metal cups, metal fork, spoons, knives, or even the sound of metal on metal. So Top of the River gives you headaches when you go.
Speaker 4It's like if you've ever had morning sickness, when you don't know what's about to happen to yourself, like you're about to either throw up a baby or pass out. I don't know, it's awful, I hate Top of the River. I out, I don't know. Yeah, it's awful, I hate Top of the River. I love Top of the River food, yes. Hate Top of the River plates yeah, but anyway.
Speaker 1So we let you we're going to go over some of these in a few minutes but we want you to tell us something weird about you. Yeah, something, a weird fact about you. Yeah, it's up on our facebook yeah, go ahead and give us a weird fact and then we'll read those later.

Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 4Anyway, things you need to know. Dolly Parton is planning to reveal personal details about her family's roots in a forthcoming album and companion docuseries titled Dolly Parton Family Smoky Mountain DNA, family Faith and Fables.

Speaker 4That is the longest name.
Speaker 1That won't fit on a t-shirt. Well, with Dolly's, because she has bigger areas.
Speaker 4Chest area yeah T-shirt yeah, yeah, the album's set to.

Speaker 3It is the one and only.
Speaker 1Scott Chambers is with us live on the air. Award-winning newsman Scott, it's an honor to have you on the is with us live on the air. Our award-winning newsman Scott, it's an honor to have you on the radio with us. Good morning to you.
Speaker 3Hey, it's good to be with you guys this morning.
Speaker 1Hey, thank you so much for listening. We appreciate that because you're always throwing us some great comments from listening to the morning show, and one we've got to ask you. This came up and we were talking about weird things about each of us that people may not know. And came up and we were talking about weird things about each other that people may not know and the one thing you sent us was that you don't like your foods to touch. Is that right?
Speaker 3Yeah, I'm kind of weird like that. Even as a grown man, my family still makes fun of me because if, like, mashed potatoes are touching ham, it's like, eh, that's gross, move it, move it, they can't touch. Yeah, it's weird. And I also have to eat with the same fork every time I eat. It has to be like a rounded edge fork, or I will go to the dishwasher and pull one out and scrub it and wash it, because I'm weird like that. Wow.
Speaker 4We're all a little weird, Scott.
Speaker 1That's kind of like what Holly does. She can't use metal forks or spoons or knives. She has to have the plastic.
Speaker 4Got to use plastic yeah that that's just weird.
Speaker 3I'll use metal. It just has to be rounded metal but you have something even weirder, so tell us about that okay, so I I'm gonna embarrass myself and all of my family that listens to a barry and holly every morning now y'all are gonna know the truth, okay?
Speaker 3um, so everything that I do has to be done in even numbers. So when I'm putting on deodorant, I have to rub it in exactly 10 times under each arm, and then I rub my arms and I count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. So it's got like 20 rubs and I know that it's evenly distributed under my arm. And then if I'm in the shower showering off, I have to rinse each body part ten times. Whoa, exactly, really.
Speaker 4Scott, you have major.
Speaker 3OCD? I do, yeah, and so here's the weirdest one of all, though. Okay, when it comes to my toes. When I'm scrubbing my toes off in the shower, I have to rinse or scrub between each toe exactly four times, and if I miss one I have to go back and do it because I feel like something bad is going to happen in the universe. Really, oh no, I'm straight up serious.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's crazy, I'm just imagining. It must be interesting on date night.
Speaker 3You do everything, even numbers interesting, on date night. You do everything in, even numbers.
Speaker 1That's why you get a lot of return dates. Why yes, scott? I?
Speaker 3will go out with you again.
Speaker 1Hey, that might be why I'm a single man. Well, that is some pretty cool stuff that took a turn.
Speaker 3Now, when I listen to your news, yeah, I tried to tell the last person I was dating. We have to go in exactly four days and see if it's going to work.
Speaker 4And it didn't happen. I wonder why that is so good, that is awesome.

Speaker 1June. In June we talked to our buddies at Second Chance Shelter in Boaz a few years ago and they talked about how summertime is always hard for dog food. Yeah, they rely on contributions and donations to be able to take care of all the dogs they have there. Which, by the way, if you're considering maybe adopting a dog now the school's out, give your kids a nice little furry friend. I highly recommend going to Second Chance Shelter. They have so many beautiful dogs. But what we're doing is the past few years, starting in June, which actually we're going to be starting this Friday, since June 1st we're going to miss a few days since it falls on the weekend. We're going to allow you if you would help us by bringing dog food by the radio station here in Albertville, and if you bring us, we're looking for dry dog food, not the canned 30 pounds or more, especially Purina. They love Purina.
Speaker 4Yes.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's what they really suggest you bring. Yeah, 30 pounds or more and you're going to get a free Woodstock t-shirt from Dixie Designs in Boaz and we'll take a picture this morning. Let's take a picture, yeah.

How bad could that have hurt?
Speaker 4He even said the victim was not injured by the cinnamon roll but wishes prosecution. Police noted how bad.
Speaker 1Could that have hurt?
Speaker 4Well, I can't imagine the phone call like excuse me, my neighbor's throwing a cinnamon roll at me, Hurry.

Speaker 4Keith, where they throw the rolls at you and you catch them. That's good.
Speaker 1I would not have a problem with throwing a cinnamon roll at me.
Speaker 4I wouldn't tattle to the police.
Speaker 1It wouldn't be my worst day.
Speaker 4But do you think if I threw a cinnamon roll at you, it would make the news, though, like we're reporting on this, and make the news, though, like we're reporting on this? This is national news? No, why?

Speaker 4Yeah, oh, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1Even though we're at home when this happens. Half of us don't do this.

Speaker 4Half of us do it and half of us don't Just sit there. Yes, there you go.
Speaker 1Yeah, so what is it? If you think you know what it is, be the first caller with the right answer 878-8000-1800-233-1051. Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly We'll talk about our Wolfstock promotion coming up Now. You're about to put the picture up of the t-shirt.
Speaker 4I already put it up, I just did.
Animal Chaos in Town Event
Speaker 1Man, these are gorgeous and thank you to Dixie Designs and Boaz. They do so much good stuff for us with their t-shirt needs and they always donate the t-shirts for this. For Second Chance Shelter and Boaz, we all team up together and collect as much dog food as we can for the month of June. I know here we are. We're not in June yet, but we're starting this Friday.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1Because I think June 1st falls on the weekend. Yes, so we don't want to miss a couple of days of collecting dog food, so we're going to start Friday. Yeah, so for the entire month of June, you can drop off dog food here. 30 pounds or more gets you a free t-shirt, which you just put the picture up. Now, how would you describe this?
Speaker 4So I would describe this as the perfect summer color tie-dye. It says Wolfstock with the OB and a peace sign and it says Love. It has a WQSB logo. Second Chance Shelter at the bottom.
Speaker 1And it has a dog with dreads. I love it. This is one of the coolest t-shirts I love it.
Speaker 4It's got little music notes all around.
Speaker 1I love it if you've donated in the past. You need this t-shirt because it's unique it we do a different design every year yeah, and we've got some of the coolest t-shirts. I'll give you a heads up this is on a tie-dye. There's only 75 of these, so starting friday, the first 75 people to donate 30 pounds more gets one of these. But don't worry, because you'll take one of the other ones, which even the other colors, the non-tie-dyed shirts, are still beautiful t-shirts oh yeah, those come in various colors.
Speaker 1But to get one of the tie-dyes you need to start on Friday, bringing us some 30 pounds or more.
Speaker 4Yeah, get one of the tie-dyes. You need to start on friday, bringing us some 30 pounds or more, yeah, and we're limited on sizing too. So, just if you want one of these tie-dye t-shirts, just be here when the doors open friday morning.
Speaker 1Yeah, what time, barry six. We'll be here at six. So, yeah, if you want to bring it into six now, even if you can't, if you to get a t-shirt, it needs to be 30 pounds or more. Yes, if you can't afford the 30 pounds and you still want to make a donation, you're more than welcome to. And somebody asked what if I bring money by? Uh, you can do that too if you want to. If you write a check and make it out to second chance shelter in boas cash, we'll get the cash to uh, dixie design I'm sorry, to second chance shelter, and then they'll go and buy the dog food with the cash okay, did they get a?
Speaker 1get a shirt If they bring. What do we figure If it's $30? Mm-hmm, yes, okay. Because we figure that it's about $25 to $30, depending on which store you get your dog food from.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1That's about how much it'll cost you to get 30 pounds of dog food. Yeah, and they prefer Purina.
Speaker 4Now you say why does it matter when? You've got about 275 dogs at a shelter and you give them a cheap dog food like all roy, don't buy all roy and it messes their stomach.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'll just call it out.
Speaker 4That makes it tougher for a second chance to have to clean it up yes, there, and it was really interesting hearing doug talk about the different kinds of dog foods. Yeah, they said that purina is their preferred brand absolutely and that all roy just absolutely eats them up.
Speaker 1It does.
Speaker 4It's bad for them yeah.
Speaker 1So, anyway, doug will start joining us every Monday morning here on the show giving us updates, and I think we're going to start posting pictures of some of the dogs you can adopt from Second Chance. So if you've been considering it getting one for the dog let me throw something out there. I know you may want a young little dog, but sometimes you can get one of these older, bigger dogs that have been in the shelter for a long time. If you want a dog, that's going to be extremely grateful. Trust me, this dog will love you for giving it a home. Consider doing that, and I think we're going to start posting pictures of these dogs and me and you is going to go out there and shoot a video coming up soon and just hang out with the dogs for a while.
Speaker 4That sounds fun to me. I love going out there.
Speaker 1Yep, all right Morning's animal story this morning. Speaking of dogs, that's one thing, but how about chickens? I'm going to read the headline. This is a headline. It says flock of rampant chickens unleashes hell and terrorizes residents of a sleepy English town.
Speaker 4Oh Lord, this sounds, oh Lord, this sounds like a Hallmark movie. Gone bad it does.
Speaker 1It's kind of like what's the one we had about the cocaine bear, cocaine werewolf, now there's the cocaine chicken. Officials are yet to determine from where this massive flock of chickens originated. They say about 100 feral fowl have descended on Snedisham. It's a small inland town near the Norfolk coast. Residents have said the birds strolled in from a nearby woody area and have since unleashed pure you-know-what. They've complained of their gardens being torn apart, being kept up at night by merciless clucking and they say, sometimes they'll run at you and peck your foot and ankle area well, my goodness, the ducks didn't do that to us yesterday no, I think there's nothing worse than a drive-by pecking.
Speaker 1I mean, if you ever get pecked one time, uh, a feral chicken, you'll never, you're not gonna forget?
Speaker 4no, you're not gonna forget. Forget that pecking Makes you just want to reach down and pull its pecker off. Oh my goodness, we are getting treading wildly here Talking chickens Rachel. He's an inch.
Speaker 1We're talking chickens. Oh yeah, she was doing paperwork over here. I got her. She was saying what movie did you watch and where did you watch it? I wanted to see this.
Speaker 4No, it's a real story.
Speaker 1These chickens are terrorizing this town and they're running up and pecking people on the ankles and their foot.
Speaker 3Where are they coming from?
Speaker 1They're from the woods. They don't know where they come from.
Speaker 4I like that. They're just. Where are they?
Speaker 1going from. They're just there, they're just there.
Speaker 4Is somebody making them mean and letting them go.
Speaker 1I don't know.
Speaker 4What if they are? What if they run a little baby chicken sweatshop? I know A little baby chicken fight club.
Speaker 1So now they're having to try to catch these things and get rid of them.
Speaker 4Yeah, first rule of chicken fight club Never talk about chicken fight club. I've never heard that before. Yeah, wow.
Remembering Reed

Speaker 1And before we go out today, I want to thank everybody for the nice comments. You put something up there earlier about my son, reed, who passed away almost three years ago, but his birthday would have been today. He would have turned 30. And it's been a hard day, but usually I take this day off, but I thought, you know, to be able to somehow move forward, you've got to somehow come in and it's been tough, but you put a post up and there's been some amazing comments from some of our listeners and that's why we love our listeners.
Speaker 4Well, you don't ever really express your personal life and you don't ever really express how deeply it hurts you. You bring it up sometimes and we talk about it, but I think, as a parent, you always stay in that moment, like you talk about reliving that moment that re-died in your arms. It's not natural, it's not something that somebody should ever have to experience. He should be here for his 30th birthday.
Speaker 1Yeah, because somebody asked does it get any easier? And I said no, no, it don't.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1And I hate to say that because people out there who may have lost somebody recently. You may think that it's going to get better. There's things that are better, you can function better, but as far as the part of missing him, no, it's not a bit easier. Yeah, but that turns to the quote of the day today. So I think this is a good one.
Speaker 4We picked this one out for anybody who maybe has lost somebody or lost a child at any time recently. Yes, so we dedicate this in memory of Reed. When you lose a child, from the outside looking in you can never understand. From the inside, looking out, you can never explain.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah, all right, it's 853.
