Full show transcript:

I

need to air a grievance. Let's hear it. And if I'm gonna air a grievance, I might as well do it publicly. Because that's what everybody wants to hear is me complain. Uh something has been going on in the in the building. We have a total of four restrooms two ladies' rooms and two men's rooms, whatever. Uh and uh the one of the men's rooms has been under construction or renovation for what seems like a month. It's been a long time that they've been working on this other restroom. So we've been down to one men's room, and we share this office uh space with East Idaho News.

They're attached to our building. Uh-huh. So we have all of the men on their staff, as well as all of the men at River Bend Media Group, which is quite a few of us, and we all share one restroom right now. And every time I'm like, oh, I gotta run to the restroom, it it's occupied all day long. It's n one restroom for this many humans is not enough.

I'm gonna do a quick count.

Oh, because you have the phone versus women. Yeah. Okay, men, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Yeah.

Real time count.

Eight. Uh-huh. 10. Eleven, twelve. Yeah. Thirteen. Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, ninth. Crazy. Twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five. Twenty-five men.

Between the two the two offices. Yes, yes. One bathroom, twenty-five men.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10. ten. More real-time counting. 11, 12. 12 girls. So 12 women.

12 women, two restrooms, 25 men, one restroom. and This is a problem. This is a problem. Sorry, buddy. Maybe. It's terrible. I mean, literally, every time I go, like, oh, I'm gonna run real quick. I can't. Like, I can't just spontaneously go use the restroom. I gotta wait in line. I gotta take a number. I gotta like set an appointment. It's ridiculous.

They might have to open the women's as a I don't know, everyone.

Look, I I am all for like let's just have a restroom be a restroom and then wash your hands. Like that's where I'm at on this thing. I don't care. I don't mind. Like clean up after yourself, wash your hands, and leave the place nicer than you found it. That's kind of how I feel about all public spaces. Like if we're gonna share space, be considerate of other people and share a space. But man, do a lot of people have opinions about that.

I'm not one of them. I just think everybody just do your thing.

Just get in and wash your hands. Just get out. Right. It's a bathroom. Right.

So anyway, that being said, I think I'm gonna have to send an email. Because what is going on with the other men's rooms?

What kind of email? What are you gonna say? I'm gonna say this is what are we doing? It's been weeks. It's been weeks upon weeks. What are we doing? Do I need to go down there and fix it myself? What's the plan?

What are we doing? Twenty-five men, one bathroom. It's ridiculous. It just is too much. Too much for one restoration. That's riled up. Well, I gotta use the restroom, and I can't.

Everyone should be riled up.

I'm not riled up.

Well, yeah, because you only have to share with 12 people. And you have two options. Yeah. Sorry. Must be nice. It is nice. Must be nice. I feel like I'm at the fly tying expo, waiting in line to use a restroom at a man event.

And you're like, well, I was in and out quick. Yeah, I'm easy peasy. Well, good luck to you, buddy. Thanks.

Uh hopefully you get in there at some point today. Yeah.

Well, in the meantime, here's today's show. Hey. What's up, my guy?

Sorry, I know you hate it when I say that, but I it just kind of slips out sometimes. It's just too informal.

It's not even that it's informal. It's just too casual for uh for you and I. It's just one of those names where I go, nah. That can be other people, but I'm not my guy. I know. To you. I know. I just looked out. Yeah. It's not my fave. I know. So sorry. I'm trying to think of a of a comparable. It feels roommate. It feels like a acquaintance.

Buddy all the time. You don't mind that one.

Uh that's uh I don't know. My guy feels too it's just it gives me the ick. Okay, alrighty. Like immediately I go, like, well right, so sorry. Yeah. Because I think we're we're more than just McGay. you know, You know, I don't know. Are we? Yeah.

Do we need to define our relationship? Yeah. Yeah, perhaps. Go on a walk. Uh which we did last night. Yes, we did.

Three whole miles. It was hot. Yeah. What was the temperature last night, you think? Uh, I don't know. I know it was in the upper 70s at the very least. Low 80s, probably. It's a good walk. Yeah.

Three miles. I enjoy your evening. Big loop.

Uh, I looked at the the map in my tracker, and we did uh the probably the biggest three mile square we could from from our house to three miles back to our house. Yeah, it was a big loop. It was huge. Yeah. Look at us. Look at that. Trying to do that after dinner the past two days in a row. Don't go starting a trend.

You're supposed to do that because it helps with your digestion.

It balances your blood sugar. It makes you sleep better. And you're doing a mobility thing. Did you sleep better? I always sleep fine. That's not true. But did you sleep pretty good? Yes. No Charlie horses. No. Charlie horse check-in. No. None. Yeah, that was great. Wow. Wow, indeed. Yeah, afterward, we were sitting on the back deck and your leg was having a twitch. Yeah. Did that quit?

No, that's like all day.

But it was especially twitchy. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Uh, do you know anybody named Leon? Mm-hmm. Yeah, me neither. Is it Leon Day? Yeah, it's Leon Day. It's actually because it's June 25th, and it is six months away from Christmas. It's Noel backwards. It's not for people named Leon. It's Noel Day.

I was gonna be mad. I'm like, why does Leon get a day?

No, it's Noel backwards. It's Leon. It is six. And it is six months to Christmas. Stop it. I'm just telling you.

I don't need you to tell me. I need you to tell me that we've got six more months of summer. Well, we don't.

That would be crazy. It would be awesome, is what that would be. Just like we're almost like half year. McCarry, another couple days will be half year. Stop it. I'm just telling you.

I don't want you to tell me. Fine, I'll tell you some good news. Sure. I'll do that next. Okay.

All right, here is some good news as promised. Uh this is a story about 79-year-old Beverly Thomas. She is from Ohio. She is a retired nurse, and she is having difficulty maintaining her property because of her arthritis. And Things got so out of hand that she was summoned to court where a judge warned that her yard had to be cleaned up, and the court appearance understandably rattled Beverly, causing her to lose sleep at night. Well, local TV station shared her story, and strangers in the community knocked on her door the very next morning to handle the mess. A lawn care professional organized a volunteer cleanup crew to trim all the brush, haul away the debris, chop down a dead tree, deal with the grass, all of it. And a local attorney even volunteered to handle her legal issues for free. For Beverly, this incredible wave of support. Uh it was both unexpected and deeply moving.

She said, I don't know. I didn't know there were kind people out there willing to help like this. I'm incredibly touched. Uh and she says that uh she hopes God blesses them for giving the their time to help somebody who can't do it anymore. Uh the volunteers set up a GoFundMe campaign, of course, to make sure Beverly's Yard continues to stay in tip top shape. Which is uh a really, really nice thing for the community doing that.

Or are still gonna provide support because I thought that initially I was like, well, it's gonna grow back. Yeah, who's gonna help her when it grows back? But I like that they have a plan in place already for that.

Yeah, the volunteer group uh has already logged over 20 hours cleaning up the yard. Um, and about 90% of the cleaning and Holloway was uh completed. They're now waiting on the tree removal to finish the last 10% before they can then begin building her a garden. Oh which uh is really really cool. The GoFundMe's trying to raise about six grand. It's just under 5,000 right this moment. So that's really nice. Isn't that cool? Yes, yeah, that's good news.

So yesterday morning I asked you a question, and that question was who in our house would be the most prone to burn down our house.

Listen to me. You have done a similar thing before. You put things out into the ethers and then bad things happen. Like what? Like the same kind of conversation. The last time I had a smoky incident. But last night, I was using the broiler, and I had uh I had made some uh Buffalo chicken like slider sandwiches, whatever. And uh the bread that I had removed from the inside of the sandwiches to make more room for the meats. Uh uh, I was gonna turn it a crouton. So I put them on a cookie tray, and after I had to finish toasting everybody's uh nice what is it, baguette, whatever, took those out and I put the tray of the croutons what was gonna be croutons, like sprayed them down with oil, seasoned them up, threw them in the oven.

I was working on a couple of things. I turned my back for half a second and I smelled smoke, and I went, oh man. Like, I mean, they were in there for less than a minute. It was crazy how fast they decided to turn real dark black.

Really fast. And then a house full of smoke. Yeah, well, and I caught it, and I turned off the oven and I opened the door, and the plume of smoke came out, and then every window and door and ceiling fan was opened and turned on, and

then here come the kids, one after another. Well, it's burnt burning. Let's burn burning. Shh, quiet down. And then Beck, the one who we were sure would be the one to burn down our house, was like, oh man, that's bad. Oh man. Oh man, I gotta go get some fresh air. It was thick. It was not it was not fun. But uh anyway.

Yeah, I almost lit the oven on fire. That was cool.

That wouldn't have been cool. We haven't even taken any pictures of our house.

How are we gonna do inventory?

Crazy. Anyway, yeah, because you brought it up yesterday, something had to happen. So quit saying stuff.

Okay, well, what if we talk about good things? Let's talk about something nice that's gonna happen.

That's what I'm saying. Manifest good things. Like, oh man. Isn't that crazy how you found all that money?

Yeah, we're gonna come into so much money. Yeah, you wouldn't even believe. Yeah, it's wild. Just appeared from the sky. Oh man, we got this amazing vacation. Yeah, you ever have that happen?

You find a bunch of money and tickets to a vacation you forgot you booked.

Tickets to a vacation. That's crazy. No, we don't I don't want to book it myself.

No, because then that means that's a good thing. forgot you did. Oh man. Oh man.

Can you imagine if somebody booked a vacation and they were like, we can't go? Do you want to go? Yeah.

No way. I've never had that happen. Me neither. That would be insane. Yeah, see? Put that kind of stuff out there. I just did. Yeah, and put that into the universe and to the ether? Yeah. Yeah, not that other stuff. No. No.

What? You're the only one that can tell dad jokes around here?

I mean, that one was not even a dad joke. That was just like a bad pun. A bad play on words. Wasn't even I wouldn't even call that a dad joke.

What would you call it? Not good. Just Wow. But anyway, everything's fine. Other than I don't have croutons. I was really hoping to have homemade croutons. Sounded really good. I messed up.

I'd like to say they smelt good, but never got to smell them. No, bruh. They did not smell good. The broiler was hot.

And that bread was light and fluffy. And it did not take long to turn into poof. Sorry about it. That's all right. We're all fine. Everything's cool.

Everything's just fine. Hope you find that trip. I hope everyone does. Wouldn't that be great?

If everybody went on vacation. Everybody needs a vacation. Yeah. Everyone does. Yeah, I agree. Good luck finding your vacation.

One of our daughter's favorite places is a little store called Dutch Bros. Yeah. And any time she wants them, hey, you guys want a refreshment? Yeah, you want a treat. Want to go get a refreshment? Yeah.

Which is any time, every day, multiple times.

What I gotta say is they've got to stop giving away all this free merch. Ah, yes.

Did you get the notification a couple of days ago that this was gonna happen? Yeah. And then yesterday, they're like, don't forget about this thing starting at 5 a.m. Was she bugging you to get it?

Of course she was.

So they haven't she get up at 5 a.m. and go.

That's what I'm saying. So we've gone in the past. We've tried to go in the past where they've had like little Dutch Bros, like ornaments, Christmas ornaments. Right. And the line was insane.

So I said, I'm not waiting in line for this. And then they've had these little keychain frogs, and then they've had bracelets, and then they have I mean, it is like promo promo promo promo.

Absolutely the best marketing because it gets people into your store. Right. People that are hooked on your stuff, like my daughter. Today that they are giving away free pins and lanyards.

Right. It's a mystery pin and lanyard pack.

And they started giving them away at 5 a.m.

But she was bugging you yesterday to go get this.

She's bugging me a week to go get it.

Do you need this? No. She has a lanyard. What's she gonna do with it?

I couldn't tell you. I got her a bracelet. I know. I went at five in the morning and got her a bracelet the one day. The one time they were they started at 3 p.m. and I didn't get off of work until five. And so when I went, they were the line was insane. Right.

But I was like, ooh, if they start at five, I can on my way to work go and get one. The things we do for our kids. I know, right? So I had it on my calendar to go do it today.

And I was like, oh, I'll go get her a lanyard and a pin. But I you didn't. I passed Dutch Bros, and I just waved.

I'm not doing that. One, I was late for work. Two, we didn't need it. No.

The bracelet I got her like maybe a month or two ago. Right. Haven't seen it.

I got you one as well. Yeah. Haven't seen it. Well, I wore it for like a week. Yeah, you guys, both of you. I saw it for about a week and then haven't seen it since.

Yeah, because I was like, this thing's just kind of bugging me on my arm. So I took it off. Yeah.

So that's what I said as I passed it this morning. I went, have fun with your landing.

Yeah, I'm not doing that at five in the morning, no way. But honestly, she can drive. She has her own money. She has a job. She can go get her own thing at five in the morning. I know. I'm full on aware. But she's just sleeping away, going, I can't wait to wake up and see that landing.

And have my mom, my mom has gotten me that. Yeah. Sorry, kid. Go get it your own self. Yeah, that's right. We were driving to Salt Lake over the weekend, and you go, Whoa, whoa, whoa, check this out, check this out. And up alongside of us comes uh what kind of car was it?

Well, several uh pretty amazing cars. There were McLaren's, there were Ferraris, there were like insane Porsches, there were a lot of supercars. Really, really fun supercars.

And they were all wrapped with different uh liveries. Is that what you call them? That's right. Yeah. Okay. That's exactly right. Yeah. Good job to me. And then we did some digging on the internet and found out it was a what was it called? A gold rush.

The Gold Rush Rally. Yeah, it was definitely a uh there's several different rallies that happen around the world. The gumball rallies and uh and those kinds of things. Anyway, and what they do is they basically travel from one point on the map to another point on the map, and they're very nice luxury cars, and they drive uh from point to point to point to point to point over the course of you know, even two weeks or something. Um, and I don't know that it's necessarily like a race as much as it's a uh a colo like a a bunch of the people in these supercar communities getting together and driving their very expensive million dollar cars uh around the country. Yeah. I want to do it.

It would be a lot of lot of fun because, things. Because well, you looked up how much it cost. Do you remember? I mean, it was nuts. It was like 24,000 or something.

To even participate in it, but you have to have a car.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You've got to have the supercar, and then you gotta pay that money to be a part of it. But everywhere you go, there's all these like resort stays that you're you're at.

Like it's very, very luxurious. I want to do it.

So this one uh went from Nashville to Las Vegas and along the way stopped in Big Sky Montana. No, Nashville. Oh, okay. Nashville to Indianapolis to Milwaukee to Minneapolis to Deadwood to Big Sky to Jackson Hole to Salt Lake to Las Vegas. And so we happened to be on the uh freeway the same day they were moving from Jackson Hole to Salt Lake, and so we saw a bunch of these cars. Um, and man, oh man, was I blown away when I was like one of the cars, there's only like five of them in the whole world. The other one. And then we saw that car.

Is that they were being driven by younger.

Yeah, YouTube people. It's YouTube people. I'm telling you, that's who it is. Um, but man, was it cool to see some of these cars? Just unreal.

Well, and I'm sure the cars get sponsored, and then the the sponsors are like here's the car, you drive it.

I don't know about that. You don't think so? No, as much as like I think there's product placement, and they're making they're getting exposure in this world and in this community um as a sponsor of these cars. Uh, but I don't think they're necessarily uh like paying for the cars themselves. I think they they're probably supplementing the drivers, um, and the drivers uh who are also content creators are getting some exposure, yeah.

What I told you was I want to in my little VW golf, yes, join in on the rally and be like, hey guys,

just follow them or wherever they're going. Yeah.

And every gas station they stop at, every pit stop, you go, hey, hey.

Yeah, it's cool to kind of look through the photo gallery and go, I saw that car. I saw that because some of these cars are insane, but there were Lamborghinis out there. There was so many very, very cool, cool cars.

And I think it's interesting too the way that they wrapped them. Like, as part of being a part of the rally, do they send you a graphics kit for your car? And they go, put this on your car. I because they've got a bunch of different sponsors for the rally that are probably giving them, you know, um what am I trying to say? Like goodie bags and stuff. It's really interesting.

I want a goodie bag. I love a good goody bag. Yeah. I never get to participate in this cool stuff. I just want to be a part of I actually think it would be so much fun to be in a rally. Yeah? Yeah, I do.

I think it'd be a lot of fun. I think the what is the other one that you said? Well, gumball. Gumball. Yeah. Yeah. I think that one's super fun. Yeah.

There's some really, really cool ones. But this Gold Rush rally, we we got to see some of those cars, and they were very cool. Okay, but I like even like I was like, I I know we're on the freeway, but I'm gonna roll down some windows so I can hear some exhausts go by. Like, oh, and they know it too.

Yeah, it was and they go, Oh, listen, you want to listen to my car? Yeah, I go, No, I don't actually. I did. I don't care about that. I just want your swag bags and your VIP stops and all of the

well, let's get a million dollar car, and then we'll pay, you know, $25,000 to go.

Is what I'm saying. Like, just take my VW golf. We can rally in that. I don't, I mean, what are we doing?

Like a used car rally.

Yeah.

And we're driving from city to city in East Idaho.

It's the it's the East Idaho used car rally. Yes. Okay. Anyone can join. It's not exclusive. You have to have a used car.

Cost $24 instead of $24,000. Yeah, okay. And you get a slice of pizza. Just one. That's right. Pretty luxurious. Yeah, it was $24,000 for a team of two, and you share the room. Uh, and uh and you worked your way June 12th in Nashville to June 20th in Las Vegas. So you you know, over the course of eight days is how long this rally went.

They didn't even invite me to participate.

But you could also do the first half or the second half, and you could cut your uh entry fee down to $14,000. Oh easy. You really wanted to.

Yeah. That's a nice vacation. Unreal. We could either rally or we can go on a really nice vacation.

$14,000 to drive your million dollar car across the country. Crazy. Crazy. Fun to watch.

I just want to participate. I want a swag bag.

Some luxury swag bag. Yes. All right. What's in there that you want? Like shampoo?

I don't know. I don't know what's in it. Okay. Fancy lotion. Oh. I don't know. I don't know what the rich people do. I don't either. Do you ever think about like if you were needed to be a witness in some kind of the crime or something? How much detail you would remember about people you've passed.

I remember we did an exercise uh in the sixth grade during Dare. And uh, and it was it was kind of based around like we're gonna show you some images, and and then uh they were like really sort of casually shown. And then it was like, okay, let's talk about details. What color was the car?

Right. And it was a mix of people that were like, it's it was blue or silver or white, depending on you know where you were sitting in the room, I guess. And then they would, you know pull up the picture again and go actually the car is you know silver but it was at sunset so it looked blue or whatever like it's like really strange things that your brain did and didn't remember and it was like a uh face of a person did they have a hat on what color was their shirt was there a mustache like so we went through that kind of an exercise and it's amazing the detail you miss

but even that scenario you're told to pay attention right you're not told to pay attention sort of in everyday scenarios right so sometimes I pass people on the street and I go okay what am I gonna remember about that

person that's a lot of stress to

even think about no it's

not that makes that makes my head hurt trying to even think about yes it is stressful just go about your

day no I do I it's not stressful at all I promise you

And it's not like not like I'm actively like thinking down

details no it's not like I'm actively trying to remember all the details I just feel like I I feel like I'm pretty observant person I notice surroundings I notice people I notice things I notice what's happening but even then I still feel like I remember I remember we listened to a podcast once and it was uh it was a murder podcast about crime right true crime and they had asked a bunch of questions about like what happened on this particular day and it was like you had to go step by step throughout the day like what happened during this time and I remember thinking at that time I can't remember anything. I know my memory is terrible

no I know like that always blows my mind with every court case that ever comes up and they go where were you on the night of November 14th and I go I couldn't tell you I don't know let me look at my calendar it says I had nothing going on. I don't know.

I don't know what did you eat for dinner I no idea I have no idea right what

did I have last Friday for dinner I don't know don't know. what I have two days ago couldn't tell you. I know what I had last Friday though because it was

delicious it took you some thinking to try and remember

yeah I was at the the German deli I sometimes had delicious foods at the German

deli sometimes I think I'm pretty observant but I also feel like I'd make a terrible witness and because I couldn't remember anything I'd be like they think I'm lying I don't remember I don't know and they'd be like something's not adding up here.

Yeah yeah I agree I'm gonna be a terrible witness

I am gonna also be a terrible witness and then they're gonna think I'm an

accomplishment and that's how you end up in jail for something you didn't do. I know your fear I realize I know in real time and then I'm just gonna get

bad coped over and over and over. There's gonna be no good cop it's just gonna be bad cop and then they're gonna be right in my face and they're gonna be like we know you did it I'll be like I didn't I just don't remember where I was well you have no alibi use the cell phone data.

I don't know I hear that's a thing. Yeah triangulate my phone I wasn't there I was somewhere else with my phone you're

telling the cops how to do their job. Yeah hey detectives I got an idea.

Yeah triangulate my phone where did the cell phone tower

ping that's exactly what I'm saying like pull up that data I wasn't there

we found your hair yeah you can find my hair anywhere. It falls like everywhere I've been

no you didn't because I'm bald that's not good forensics.

Yeah oh so you looked in a car I've been in in the past year. Got it. Yeah that's tough. I don't I I don't think I would be a very good reliable witness for a thing. I'd be like they were there maybe I don't know.

Maybe just look up every now and then if you're walking down the street and do a quick scan

and then take on take notes of what you see.

White dress with flowers long blonde hair check.

That was it 62526 at 8 10

a.mot yeah because if anybody ever just in case

I'm gonna know where I was and when every time yeah I don't know so many details get lost I don't know how they ever like do a court case. How do you ever do it?

I don't know. I'm glad that's not my job. Me too Hold on. tell the person the one listening no listen. Okay go tell the people what how you got your radio name. Tell the people how I got my radio name.

Yeah your real actual name is Josh.

Yeah that's my real name but there's a there's a different last name and look this has kind of been around in the industry for a long time. People have had these sort of alias radio names. And I think the idea originally was like a sort of not like a secret identity, but it was more of a like privacy protection thing. Uh, because there was this thing called a phone book where people could look you up and then they would know like where you live or whatever. And so this predated the internet, so people had these sort of on-air personas so that they could have a a little bit of privacy protection and anonymity in their real life.

So, you know, when I started in radio 25 some odd years ago, uh I was sort of given the name Josh Tielor. And uh and it was fine. I don't have any problems with it. At the time I said, can I spell it different? And they were like, I don't care how you spell it, because it didn't matter at that time because it wasn't like appearing anywhere. It was it was just gonna be pronounced Josh "Tyler." That was probably a mistake I made. I didn't have a lot of uh foresight in spelling it weird.

Yeah, but it's spelled phonetically.

Yeah, but people have a real hard time with how to pronounce it. They do uh if I would have just done T Y L E R, that would have been fine. Yeah, but I didn't. I did IE L-O-R because you know, I'm a weirdo. I don't know why I wanted to spell it weird different. I well, I know I do know why I wanted to spell it different because when I first started, uh the first Josh Tielor radio gig was on K-Bear, where I spent two years. Uh and when I when I was Josh Tyler on the rock station, I didn't want it to be associated with Aerosmith's Steven Tyler.

Uh-huh. And so I said, I'm not gonna be on a rock station with a rock dude's last name. Right, like spelled the same way. So in my head, I went, I'm gonna spell it different, so I'm not associated with Aerosmith. Uh not there's anything wrong with that, but I didn't want people to be like, oh, real funny, like you think you're as cool as Steven Tyler. Or you know, so I went, I'll just do it weird. Then people won't be confused.

Did you have any ideas about a radio name when you were in your radio school or anything? Not really. No. Have like a burning desire to always be called, like I don't know. I can't even think of it.

No, like there were there are some radio people who have created personalities around like a character name, and you know, like a man cow and Yeah. Bubba the love sponge. Like, there's just all these like crazy names. Like there's a guy, there's a guy named Jojo, who's that's his real name, but he goes by Jojo on the radio, and I go like stop. Like, what are we doing? Like there's Duke Newcomb. Well, that's a video game.

Oh, isn't that a radio personality too? No.

Not that I know of. But there's there's just so many that I'm like, I don't I don't want to be something weird. Like I I'm fine with being a name. Typically in journalism, like there will be like a pen name.

Right. So I, you know, it probably was borrowed from that in a way, as as or you know, authors will have ghostwriter names or whatever. I feel like it would it sort of lent itself to a lot of that. But yeah, so now for 25 years, I've had this alternative personality attached to me. It's kind of strange because there was a time where I was in between radio shows. I was still working in radio, but I was, you know, there was a good stretch of three months or so where I didn't have an on-air job. I was just behind the scenes working on other stuff. And that was at that point, I was like, should I drop the moniker and just like when I whenever ever I get a chance to come back, should I just be me? Like, should I just do it? But there's too many consonants in a row, and it it just bl out.

It's hard to say. So I'm good with Josh Tielor because there's fewer consonants in a row, so it doesn't create a problem for speaking. Because it rolls off the tongue nice. When I joined you on the radio, uh there it

there was a conversation that was had of what do you want to be called? And I was like, Shantel. Yeah. that is my name. Right.

But it's it that's why it was weird for a time there was a billboard that said like, wake up with the Tielors, and I went, I don't like that. That feels like uh like a uh it's just made up.

I don't care for that. Like Josh and Chantel's legit. That's us. That's our real name. Yeah. But I didn't like the I didn't like that branding. It was strange. That's funny. Yeah. It just feels weird. Like, I don't know. A little peek behind the curtain of the mysteries of radio. I wish that I had

more of an opportunity to make up a name because that would be fun. Oh, okay. Like a whole different name. Yeah. Like a radio name. You know how confusing that would be. It would be confusing.

Just in regular conversation. Oh, Shanta. No, that's not your name. Like that. No, I'm glad you didn't do that. That would be awful. I would mess that up. You'd have no secret identity at all.

Anyway, I don't know. I mean, like I look around, like there's people in the building who use fake names. There's people who use their real name. There's people that use the same first name but different last names. There's people that have completely different names that aren't even close to their real names. It's just a thing that happens. I don't know. But it's it's an old thing. I think more and more and more people are using real names.

Well, because there really is very little anonymity anymore with the internet.

Yeah, right. But then that was a huge thing too. It was like now we're putting ourselves out as more than just a voice. Like now we're a face on social media, and we've got it, you know,

there's it's not difficult to do a quick Google search.

Well, I mean it's I mean, uh, who cares? Like it's just not even the thing. Yeah. What was funny was I ran into this was years and years and years and years ago. Ran into uh an acquaintance slash sort of friend from high school. Um, and uh, and he recognized me before I recognized him, but he was like, now uh you remind me of a guy I went to high school with, but he had a different last name. And I said, Oh, what was it? And he says the name, and I went, yeah, no, that's me. He's like, What? Like, yeah, yeah. So that was kind of fun.

It's awesome. Yeah, he was like, uh you didn't, it was like his name wasn't Tielor. And I went, yeah, I know. What was it though? And I And I went, yeah, that's me. How about that? Same guy.

The World Cup is happening. You know this. I've heard of it. Have you? Yeah. And here is some of the craziest foods that you can buy at the World Cup.

Oh, interesting. So this is at stadiums around the country and also in Canada and Mexico.

Uh, yeah. We're just gonna talk about there's two in Miami, one in Los Angeles, and two in Vancouver.

All right. And are they charging an arm and a leg for this stuff?

Of course they are. That's frustrating. they are. Uh there's fancy tots in Miami. Fancy tots. Three fried hash browns. Okay. Topped with caviar. No. Creme fraƮche. No. And chives. Nah. How much do you think that is? $15. $75.

What? $75 for three hash browns for a hash brown flight. It has caviar on it. Okay. It should cost $15.

And chives. Ooh, ooh, chives. Yeah.

I got chives in my garden. I'll squeeze a fish.

You can't find chives anywhere. Chives grow wild on the side.

Plus, creme fresh isn't that expensive either. They're way, way, way marking that up.

Oh, of course they are. Also in Miami, they have the empanada mundial. Okay. It's a five-pound chicken and cheese empanada. That's too much. That costs $50. $40.

You're getting way more food than you are with the hash browns. Yes, for sure. Five pounds? Five pounds. That's a lot of food.

That's so much food. You could share that though. You should. You should. There is a Twinkie cheeseburger in Los Angeles. Unbelievable. A cheeseburger that's topped with bacon wrapped jalapeno and stuffed with brisket and cream cheese. That's a lot of food too. I don't know what it is.

That's a $55 burger.

I don't know how much that one is, but I don't know why it's called the Twinkie Cheeseburger if there's not any Twinkies in it. Just I guess it's stuffed with cream cheese. I gotta look this thing up. Okay. Twinkie cheeseburger. Yeah. Uh top check.

A beef patty with cheese wedged either inside a split twinkie or topped with a Texas Twinkie, which is a bacon wrapped cream cheese stuffed jalapeno. So it's a jalapeno popper. Oh, gotcha.

On top of, but it's a Texas Twinkie. I've never heard of that before. Me neither. I didn't know that was a big one. It's just a spicy Twinkie. Yeah, well, it's not a Twinkie at all. It's a stuffed jalapeno.

Then in Vancouver, we've got short rib poutine.

Oh, listen. Uh so that is in Canada. Yes. Uh as you said there wouldn't be one in Canada.

I did too. I said two in Canada.

Oh, I thought you said Miami and LA.

Yeah, I said there's not one in Mexico.

I didn't listen. So surprise. So the poutine. I like that stuff.

It's fries loaded with gravy. And then there's cold short rib and cheese curds.

Okay. I'm into that one.

I know that one sounds so good. $25. I don't know how much that one is either. $25. I don't think it's probably going to be that much. You think it's less than that? No, I think it's more than that. Oh, man. And then also in Vancouver, there's the maple bacon smokey.

I'll pass on that. I'm not a big maple guy.

I do, but I don't like smokies. Smoke sausage tuffed with bacon onion jam and maple syrup.

You would actually like that a lot. And it's not little smokies, it's sausage. So it's not get the little smoky idea out of your head. That's smoke sausages. That sounds nice.

Little smokies. Yeah. That has to be the worst thing anyone can bring to a potluck. Really? Yo, I hate little smokies. They're good. Nope.

I hate the way they look. way they...

I hate I hate the way they look. I hate the way they smell. I hate the way they taste. Little smokies are gross. Wow.

I'm gonna make a crock pot of them tonight. Cool. In the house. So you just have to live. I'm gonna cook them in the bedroom. Why? So that you have to smell them. Because I'm rude.

Gross. That seems like a waste.

No, I'm gonna eat them. I just want to the whole pot. If I have to.

You better eat that whole pot of little smokies.

One bag of smokies isn't that much. It is so much. It's a lot of sodium. How much? How many little smokies are in one pouch? I bet I could I bet I could get through a pouch.

In a 14 ounce pack or 12 ounce pack. Whatever. Let's see. There are 35 to 45. 100%.

I could eat 35 little smokies. kidding? I could eat 35 little smokies without even breaking a sweat.

Fine. Challenge.

You don't think you you don't think I could eat 35 little smokies?

That's so many little smokies.

I mean, it's bad for me. It's very bad. You shouldn't do it.

Your doctor would highly disapprove.

He's like, bro. Remember we talked about your uh nitrates and we talked about your cholesterol and you're on pills for that. Don't do this challenge. But I could. I guarantee I could eat that.

Okay. Challenge is you have to eat them cold. No. Oh. Absolutely not. With no sauce. No. Yep. Sorry. You have to.

You can't make up rules like this. What if that was a thing you got? Cold smokies. What are you talking about? You go to a fancy football game and they're like serving cold smokies for 45 bucks. It's French. It's French cold smokies. Yeah. No. No.

No. Okay. Could you eat how many cold smokies could you eat? Zero. No, you have to. No. You have to. No, I do not. It's part of the challenge.

I'm not doing that weird challenge. You made it gross.

Just tell me how many you think you could eat. Cold? Zero. I won't. Cold smokies. Do not touch this mouth. Straight from the bag.

No, you're so gross. So the uh what do they call themselves? The recording academy. They're the people that uh give out the Grammy Awards. And uh next year's the 69th Grammy Awards. And uh so in February, they will do the uh announcement of all of the people that win the big award and music's big as night, whatever they call it. Uh they've they've introduced five new Grammy categories. Ooh, what are they? Yeah, I thought you might like to know. They are best Asian pop music performance. Ooh. Right.

They've added a K-pop category. That is correct. Okay.

K-pop, J pop, and C pop. What's C pop? Well, K pop is Korean, J pop is Japanese, and C pop would be China. Oh, okay. So these are the Asian pop music performance Grammy. Okay. Uh, which is a new category. Okay. Best RB collaboration or duo group performance. Okay.

So that's uh that's something that's existed in uh in pop and probably in rock, but now is existing in RB as well. Okay. Best traditional pop vocal performance.

What? This is excellence in singles and tracks that consist of a type and style of song and or performance that cannot properly be in intermingled with present forms of pop music. It's best traditional pop vocal performance. Best of them. No auto-tune, like none of that stuff. You gotta be a real singer to win best traditional pop vocal.

You gotta actually have talent for that. one. Okay, okay.

Best traditional folk album. Okay. Yeah. And best Latin song. Oh. Yeah. Okay. Those are the five new Grammys that you'll see this upcoming Grammy season. I just... I don't know.

I hate award shows for so many reasons, but I hate them most of all because awards are all subjective, aren't they? Like they are. You can have people who know everything there is to know about music. Maybe they know how people harmonize and rhythm of it.

You bet.

But it's still that still doesn't necessarily make a great song. Yeah. You know what I'm trying to say.

So here's another thing that they've they've done. They've changed the rules up this year as well. So the voting process for the awards has been updated with an introduction of ballot plus.

Ooh. So it's regular voting ballot plus. So if you qualify for the ballot plus, you would get a uh a new ballot where you get to vote in up to 15 different categories across any field, but it is subject to a credit verification.

So I don't know what that means. Uh, but those who do not opt in or qualify for ballot plus will receive the standard ballot, where I think they only get to vote in 10 different categories across three fields. So like if you are in the pop field, maybe you do pop folk and rock, but you only get to vote 10 times in those three different categories. This new ballot plus lets you vote in up to 15 categories in any field.

Do you get like a selection of songs though? Yeah.

Because well, you'll know who the nominees are, and you have to select who you think wins in that category.

Right. So you have just a few nominees that you're picking from. You're not picking from everything that's out there.

And then they have multiple people that are filling out these ballots. Yeah, oh yeah, I know. I know. Yeah. I don't like that. Other changes include those to album eligibility. The threshold of new recordings required on an eligible album is now uh 66% instead of 75%, which reduces the exclusion of entries widely recognized as new albums, whatever that means. There will be more potential nominees based on these new rules and more experienced voters casting ballots. Okay. Is what it sounds like.

All right. That doesn't necessarily I'm still not gonna watch the Grammys. Okay. Sounds good. I just watched a video where a woman said, You know you're old when the first thing you do when you get home is you go check out your garden. I love it. And that's what you do every day.

That is right. And yesterday when I got home, you said, Hey, hey, go take a garden tour. Go take a garden tour. And lo and behold, you got some peas.

That's right. I got my snap peas. Uh, and we had a couple, and they're pretty good. They were pretty tasty. Pretty good. You did great. Yeah. I'm probably gonna pull a couple of cherry tomatoes today.

Ooh, boy. I know.

Look at you growing stuff. Real close to ready. So I'm probably gonna pull those. I'm keeping my eye on a couple of strawberries that I've been growing.

You were a little bit discouraged yesterday.

I'm still I I'm struggling with patience in the garden. I want everything to be big and huge and beautiful and fruit bearing right now.

Well, and you said you had gone to your mom's house and her garden was looking top.

She has got some good plants. She's got two nice cucumbers growing. My cucumber plants the saddest looking one in the whole garden. What's she doing that you're not singing to them? I don't know what she's doing.

Do you didn't ask her any secrets?

Well, so she's got uh where I've got mulch in the garden. Uh-huh. She has put down like a gravel for her walking area. And uh the theory is that that is getting uh sun on it in the day, and then it's radiating that heat into the night.

So it's basically giving like a ground thermal uh sort of effect is kind of the theory at the moment. Um I don't know. I don't know what interesting what's going on.

Yeah, she's hitting you on with more strawberries.

Oh, she's got strawberries for days. Every single day she's pulling a quart or two or three of strawberries out of there. It's it's wild. She's she's growing strawberries like like absolutely bananas. And she's got rhubarb, like you wouldn't believe. And she's like, Do you need rhubarb? I'm like, I don't even have a recipe, but now I got a bunch of strawberries and I got a rhubarb, so I guess I could probably make a recipe with that.

A strawberry rhubarb crumble. Yeah. Yes, please. I know. Also, you need to get a rhubarb start from her because your rhubarb is pretty sad.

Mine is toast. It's done. I think I rotted the roots on accident. I think I overwatered it.

I also think you had it outside of the garden.

And the dog kept stepping it in. Yeah.

Yeah. It got trampled a little bit.

I don't know why she kept standing in the box like it made her tall and she was like, look at me, I'm king of the mountain. That was before I had put in the fence and everything.

So yeah, I don't the the rhubarb is sad. So get a start from your mom. I don't know how that works. I think you have to split it. I think you have to like cut the whole plant into a piece. I don't know how it works.

I don't know how it works when you get starts. I'll have to look that up. From people. I don't somebody always says that. Do you want to start? And I go, I don't know what that means. It's a baby plant. No, I understand that you're getting part of the plant, but how?

Yeah. Uh let's see. Uh splitting a rhubarb, uh blah blah blah. Dig up the root clump in the early spring and then chop it into sections. That's how you do that with rhubarb. So it's it's not time to do that. Okay. I'm just gonna have to

get you can't just take a start anytime.

According to this, you gotta do it every four to six years if you notice a drop in stock production, but you should do it in the early spring as soon as the soil can be worked before new tender leaves emerge. Okay. And it's well established right now. But you gotta dig around the base of the rhubarb plant, and then you gotta do it.

So you didn't take any rhubarb when you were there yesterday. No, I could. Yeah.

I don't have I didn't have a recipe ready to go. It's not that difficult. I didn't get rhubarb anytime. She's got a billion rhubarb.

We gotta make some strawberry rhubarb crumble.

Like you know how when you when you would play Farmville or any of those games, and you're like, I got uh way too much of this corn. I need a different product because no one's buying my corn. This is she's got a billion rhubarb. Heavy in the rhubarb.

Then get some rhubarb. Okay. I can't even believe you walked away without rhubarb.

I got another quart ziploc bag of strawberries. We'll find a recipe. Yeah, well, I know. I just didn't have one at the moment that I was like, yeah, I feel like making something right now. But apparently I gotta get making a crumble.

You do need to your chives. Was it your chives or your dill? I don't one of your My

Dill's pretty tall and it's seeding out a little bit. Yeah. It's pretty big. It is. Yeah. I got good beets. My beets are looking nice. I don't know. There's stuff happening in the garden.

I know there is, and you check it out every day. And I'm happy to accompany you and eat the snap peas. Yeah.

Because they're ready.

Because you say, here, try this. And I go all the time.

I'm excited because the once the Lincoln peas start, that's like those are my favorite. That's gonna be awesome. The Lincoln peas. Yeah. They're like the longer pea pods with the bigger peas in them. Uh-huh.

Yeah. You don't even eat peas. Not like cooked peas. Gross.

But fresh peas out of the garden. Yes. Awesome.

They're great. But I don't want like peas. Like boiled heat up. Canned. Canned peas. Yuck. Or frozen and then warmed up.

Frozen peas are fine. They're fine in stuff. But never by themselves. Or in a soup. Yuck. Pea soup. You don't like split pea soup? No. Why? Mm-mm. I don't mind peas. I like them. Fine. But I'm never going to be like, put a pile of peas on my plate. No thanks.

Did your mom ever make that carrot raisin salad that also had peas in it? No. Oh. Lucky.

I take it yours did. It made you eat it. You were forced to eat it. I mean, yeah. Ew. There's way better salads. Arguably the worst thing that she's ever made. What's the worst thing your mom's ever made? I don't know.

My mom was actually a good cook. I just hated my I know. carrot raisin pea salad. What is it called?

It's not Ambrosia.

No, ambros just got like marshmallows and whipped cream. Yeah, I don't like that either. You don't? No. Why not?

I think it because it has coconut in it too, right? Pineapple and coconut. Yeah, I don't like that thing. I looked it up. I don't like ambrosia. I like ambrosia salad, but carrot raisin salad.

Mayonnaise, shredded carrots, raisins, lemon juice, water, and salt.

And then why did it have peas in it? Did she add peas on her own? She I don't know. I think she did. I think she went, it'll be good with peas in it.

I might have just added the peas on my own. I can't, I don't think she added peas to it. Carrot braisin? Hmm. Let's make that.

Carrot. Would you rather this or that?

Would you rather be able to talk to fish or talk to your dog?

Uh I'm gonna say the dog. Why?

I thought you would have sure said for fish. Nah.

I'm trying to figure out like what I would say to a fish, other than like, thanks, bud. But I talked to the fish anyway. I go, hey, thanks. Thanks for uh for- Yeah, but they interthinking my thing. Yeah, I understand.

The idea is that they understand. No, I understand.

But I would rather talk to the dog because I would be like, stop it. And then she'd be like, oh, I understand that.

That doesn't mean she's gonna listen just because she we tell her all the time things that she understands.

Right, like quit barking because you're just barking to make the other dogs nearby bark. Like, stop it. It's a game you play and it's an annoying one.

Okay, so then would you rather have them who would you rather talk back to you? Fish or the dog? The dog. You'd rather the dog talks back.

I deal with the dog day to day. I don't need to I don't need to talk to the fish. It's fine.

You said the dog started barking last night. I don't even know what time it was. One o'clock in the morning. Woke us up. And you rushed out there. You marched out to the living ground.

I said, go to bed. She's got her head poking out the curtains, looking at the neighborhood. I said, go to bed. You said she talked back to you. And she went, and I said, It's time for bed. I went, enough.

And I closed the curtains again and I put the pillow up there to hold them shut. And I went, enough of this. Crazy dog.

You get back to the bedroom. You're sorry, talking back, dog. Yeah.

I don't know if I would want her to talk to us.

Yeah, she'd be like, you go to bed. I'm like, I was asleep. You woke me up. Yeah, but there was a disturbance in the neighborhood.

Oh, she would ask. All she would say is, Can I have more treats? Can I please have more treats? Can I have some of what you're saying?

You you ready to kick my ball now? That chicken's time to play kick a ball.

That chicken smells delicious.

I feel like I have some chicken. You need to get out of this room. But then I could say clean up your toys, and she'd learn how to clean up her toys because she'd understand. It's like having a toy.

Just because she can understand, doesn't it mean she's gonna listen?

But if she understands, then I could then there's like uh like we can have a communication. We can't communicate right now. Because she doesn't understand. And I don't understand what her talking back is about.

I I think we understand completely what that means.

I think what happened is I think the neighbor got home late and they have a little dog, and I think the little dog was was going and running around excited about being home. That's what I think happened. And that happened at one o'clock in the morning and woke up our dog, and then she was like, I gotta see what's going on in the neighborhood. And then you put her to bed and she's like I said, go to bed.

I've tried to protect you.

Yeah, that's what she said. That's her back talk. I'm trying to save your life. Go to bed. Save your own life.

Yeah, yeah. 15 pound dog. You're not saving anyone.

She is a vicious one though. I'll tell you what. Would you rather this or that? Oh, did you say?

Um, I'd rather talk to a dog. I don't care what fish have to say. Well, there we go. I was gonna ask you a question about who do you think in our family eats the most? And then I have to over not necessarily quantity, just whatever. Like who is in our family is the most I don't want even say adventurous.

Just who eats the most, not quantity, like who eats whatever's put down in front of them, I guess I should say. Well, you and me. And then I happen to look over and saw your container of leftovers. Yeah. And you're the kind of the leftover king in our house. Well, I'm the only one that eats them. Yeah. See.

Everybody is like, do you want me to save this? And I'm like, well, that's my lunch tomorrow. So yep.

You had half of Emory's sandwich and about a quarter of Beck's sandwich. Well, I only brought the I only brought the bigger one. Oh, okay.

The other one's still in the fridge. Okay. For you. I don't. Yeah, I know. Because it's leftover chicken. I don't do leftover chicken.

You don't do leftover chicken. You know why? Because it tastes gross. It doesn't. It does. You think it tastes gross new. Yeah. New. Yeah. New chicken.

Brand new chicken I just cooked, and you're like, I could do without. But I ate it last night.

There was one big piece that I didn't eat. And I kicked that to the side. You made these buffalo chicken sandwiches. Yeah. My gosh, they were so good. It tasted like buffalo chicken dip in a sandwich. Yeah. It's buffalo chicken. On bread. It was so good. It was so good.

And they had melty cheese, and it was uh there were the onions in there that were real nice.

Yeah, every kicked out all of our onions.

They were so good. I saw tape them up. And just ate them. From her plate.

Grabbed all of our real diet. onions. Yeah.

So I didn't need to really ask you that question because I already knew the answer. Yeah, it's me. I think when the kids were little, maybe it was just because I was home with them more, but when they left most of the food on their plate, then I would just, you're not gonna eat that piece of toast. Okay, I'll have that. Yeah, I get that. So I ate a lot of their leftovers when they were little, but nowadays, everyone will be like, Do you want this? And I go, nah. Dad will eat it though. Just put it in a Tupperware. Put it in the fridge.

Yeah, I get to taste every meal twice. So I got that going for me. Good thing I like what whatever's cooked. Yeah. I'm pretty easy to please. I'm not super picky. There's only a few things that I'm like, I just don't want to eat that.

You have a few rules, like you don't eat mushrooms. Right. You can't have breakfast for dinner. Right. You can't have a cold sandwich for dinner. It has to be a hot sandwich. Right. Last night was fine. We had sandwiches, but they luckily they were they were hot sandwiches.

Right. We would have had a fight on our hands. I can't eat this cold sandwich for dinner. Yeah, nah. It's a hot meal. Oh, and soup.

Soup is not a meal, a standalone meal.

There's some suits that are standalone meals. If it's a heartier soup. That's correct. Like a lasagna soup.

Right. Or a tortilla soup. Those are meals. Chili is not a soup, chili is chili. But pizza defies all rules.

But like a baked potato soup. You'd have to have a sandwich with that.

I'd want to have a side with that. Okay.

And tomato soup certainly needs something more with it. Absolutely. In your opinion. Yeah.

Okay. And and don't worry about making a chicken noodle soup. Just make like a chicken pot pie. That's better. That's a meal. You see. I do see. I like food.

Well, luckily you get to eat it twice. That's every time. Yep. Not every time.

Like whatever I make tonight, I'm going, okay, is this going to be good for lunch tomorrow? Because I'll be having it tomorrow. It's the way it goes.

It depends on what it is, because sometimes I share leftovers with you. Sometimes. But I never do the chicken.

I know. You're like, what is the rice and the veggies and the sauce? Like, what can I have? You can have all the chicken. I'll just take the sauce. Yeah. Yeah. And the rice. Right. And the veggies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. It's fine with me. Yeah, it makes a lot of sense.

And then you get all the chicken. Lucky.

Yeah, lucky. It's too much. I would like more vegetables in there. It's fine. I'm getting my protein, I guess. Good job. So anyway. Let's wrap up today's show. Okay. Uh, tomorrow's Friday. That's exciting. Uh, it's been a pretty quick week, actually.

It's gone by pretty fast for me anyway. Uh, but we'll be back tomorrow morning with a brand new show for you. So thanks for hanging out, and uh, we'll talk to you then, I guess. Sounds good. I'll be here. All right, see you tomorrow. Bye.
