Now, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to rise and shine and get your morning started with Alabama's award-winning morning show.
Speaker 3:My doctor said that could be the reason for my rash. I'm literally screaming right now.
Speaker 2:Broadcasting 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 1:I just like waking up to the sound of your sweet voice. See you on the field, superstar.
Speaker 2:Oh, could you turn it up?
Speaker 1:please, 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 4:So 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 1:Right. 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 4:Yeah, and you said you had blood this morning.
Speaker 1:Yeah, 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 4:Did you put deodorant on it? I tried. I told you not to.
Speaker 1:That's another thing that's hard to do. You can't why.
Speaker 4:Because 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 1:I 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 1:God, 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 4:And 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 1:I 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 4:Oh yeah, Like little beady babies.
Speaker 1:Yeah, 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 1:So 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 1:They 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 4:It'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 1:I needed a smile and I hope you're taking care of yourself and resting.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm doing my best, and it was fun just to see them because there were so many of them.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 1:They're everywhere.
Speaker 4:They're everywhere and I love it. I guess it's just that time of year springtime baby chicks.
Speaker 1:Yeah, 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 4:I 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.
Speaker 1:I 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 1:You just don't swim.
Speaker 4:I just don't swim so do you go the deep end and pools?
Speaker 1:I know, oh, no.
Speaker 4:You don't even like walk the wall? No.
Speaker 1:You 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 4:Yeah, 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 4:Yeah, 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 1:that 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 4:No, I have to use plastic. I cannot stand metal in my mouth.
Speaker 1:Metal 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 4:It'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 3:Hey, it's good to be with you guys this morning.
Speaker 1:Hey, 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 3:Yeah, 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 4:We're all a little weird, Scott.
Speaker 1:That's kind of like what Holly does. She can't use metal forks or spoons or knives. She has to have the plastic.
Speaker 4:Got to use plastic yeah that that's just weird.
Speaker 3:I'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 3:um, 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 4:Scott, you have major.
Speaker 3:OCD? 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 1:Yeah, it's crazy, I'm just imagining. It must be interesting on date night.
Speaker 3:You do everything, even numbers interesting, on date night. You do everything in, even numbers.
Speaker 1:That's why you get a lot of return dates. Why yes, scott? I?
Speaker 3:will go out with you again.
Speaker 1:Hey, that might be why I'm a single man. Well, that is some pretty cool stuff that took a turn.
Speaker 3:Now, 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 1:June. 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 4:Yes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, 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.
Speaker 4:I can take a picture it goes now.
Speaker 1:the first 75 people who do this starting Friday get a limited edition tie-dye Woodstock t-shirt. And these are so pretty, they're gorgeous.
Speaker 4:But they're limited.
Speaker 1:This may be one of the best logos we've had. This may be one of the best logos we've had. Yeah, they're beautiful. So the first 75 starting Friday get that, and if you donate after the 75, you still get a T-shirt. They're still beautiful. They're just all different colors. They just look so cool in the tie-dye, though, and we're going to be doing it for the entire month of June, and all the dog food goes to Second Chance Shelter in Boas. This all starts on Friday.
Speaker 4:Yep and it's 30 pounds or more 30 pounds or more.
Speaker 1:So we looked it up a few days ago and it's roughly about 25 to 30 bucks is what you'll pay.
Speaker 4:Yes.
Speaker 1:You get a t-shirt and you have the pleasure of knowing you're helping these dogs and helping second chance feed these dogs.
Speaker 4:Yeah, and Doug said that it takes about a. What was it? A pound?
Speaker 1:A dog. A dog, yeah, a day A day and you've got 200 in. I think last time we talked about 275 dogs at the shelter now waiting to be adopted. That's a lot of dog food every day.

Speaker 1:But to get one of the tie-dyes you need to start on Friday, bringing us some 30 pounds or more.
Speaker 4:Yeah, 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 1:Yeah, 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 1:get 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 4:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That's about how much it'll cost you to get 30 pounds of dog food. Yeah, and they prefer Purina.
Speaker 4:Now 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 1:Yeah, I'll just call it out.
Speaker 4:That 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 1:It does.
Speaker 4:It's bad for them yeah.
Speaker 1:So, 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 4:That sounds fun to me. I love going out there.
Speaker 1:Yep, 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 4:Oh Lord, this sounds, oh Lord, this sounds like a Hallmark movie. Gone bad it does.
Speaker 1:It'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 1:I mean, if you ever get pecked one time, uh, a feral chicken, you'll never, you're not gonna forget?
Speaker 4:no, 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 1:We'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 4:No, it's a real story.
Speaker 1:These chickens are terrorizing this town and they're running up and pecking people on the ankles and their foot.
Speaker 3:Where are they coming from?
Speaker 1:They're from the woods. They don't know where they come from.
Speaker 4:I like that. They're just. Where are they?
Speaker 1:going from. They're just there, they're just there.
Speaker 4:Is somebody making them mean and letting them go.
Speaker 1:I don't know.
Speaker 4:What if they are? What if they run a little baby chicken sweatshop? I know A little baby chicken fight club.
Speaker 1:So now they're having to try to catch these things and get rid of them.
Speaker 4:Yeah, first rule of chicken fight club Never talk about chicken fight club. I've never heard that before. Yeah, wow.
Speaker 1:Because you're not in Chicken Fight Club. No, take 42. Mornings with.
Speaker 2:Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:And 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 4:Well, 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 1:Yeah, because somebody asked does it get any easier? And I said no, no, it don't.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And 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 4:We 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 1:Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah, all right, it's 853.
