The Show - CLAIRE DANES POSTER

Episode Date: July 15, 2025

Josh goes for a nice walk through Syracuse at 5am. Anyone else remember “Claire Danes Poster?” Some High Strangeness takes us back to the 1800’s. Paul from Brushfest gets us ready for The Syracuse Nationals. Plus so much more on a Tuesdee!

We interrupt this program. Previously, critics had brailed against the duo as crude, dumb, ugly, thoughtless, sexist, self-destructive, and foolish. They are not part of the legitimate business world. What they do is they celebrate underachievement. And all candor, I would tell you it's outrageous, Phil. And if I could find some way constitutionally to do away with it, I would. Happy Tuesday! Happy two for Tuesday!

Happy two for Tuesday. I don't know that means I got nothing to plan for that, but I feel like... I was going to say in radio, you're legally required to do a two for Tuesday. Two for Tuesday, another day closer to the weekend. It's a two for Tuesday, folks. Tomorrow will be a... We... Water when...

It's hump day. It's hump day. It's hump day, yeah, yeah, yeah. Man, that, for a while, that was the only thing he ever said over there next door. Gary was hump day? The commercial, remember that? That was his favorite thing in the world. Oh, the camel.

The camel, dude. That thing was the bane of my existence. That was his favorite thing in the universe. The, the, the, the, the, the hump day camel was more annoying than the wasop. I love whyzap. I still do it. You love it. You love it.

Ironically, but would you love it in the heat of the was-ups? Yeah, I did. When everyone's dad was doing was-ups? Yes, because I was doing it too. All right. All right. I can't deny that I was a big one's up guy. I'm not going to try to the sugarcoat my...

All right. Because somewhere out there, there's going to be somebody that was like, that was your favorite thing. No, I know. Much like Creed, I didn't enjoy it in the time, but I do like it now in retrospect. At the time, everyone's dad was doing it because everyone's dad thought they were still fun and young.

Yep. Come to find out they were the age I am now. So I still think I'm fun and young, but I'm definitely not. Pretty much. But yeah, hump day camp. Something Gamble was annoying. Yeah. Good morning, everybody. Happy Tuesday.

Hello. Hello. Tuesday, hello. Cody's belly's feeling better. No birds pooped on them on the way in today. I looked first. Don't think I didn't look up there. I had a lovely walk to work today. That was nice. Beautiful weather out this morning. You actually walked from... Yeah, I walked from the Lachia Honda over here. It was nice. It was actually very relaxing. I don't get to work out because it's been too hot. I've been able to exercise. So it was a nice walk. Took about 20 minutes.

Yeah, that's why. I'm the only exorcists. Oh, yeah, and I'm fat. No, I like to go for my walks, and that was a nice walk this morning. Okay, well, I can bring you back over there. No! Well, no, I'm not walking over there.

That ought to be too hot. But this morning, it was very nice. Oh, oh, no. All of a sudden, now you need me, huh? Cut over across a park street, and then I cut through that park over there. Oh, I got to go now, sorry. Oh, all right.

Oh, I know what you're talking about. Then I walk past Middle Ages brewing, then came down, uh, I don't know, That other road, is that West Street past the bank? I don't know what it is. I forget what's over there. I know what you're talking about, though. Walk down there, saw a couple early morning risers.

I felt like I was part of the people who were out jogging in the morning. I was like, look at us. We're just getting our morning workouts. We're all hanging out. Just me walking on the west side of 5 a.m. No big deal. Nice. It was delightful.

Although, put your phones down. Youths. There was like two. They're probably in their 20s, so they're young to me. There's still Pokemon going out there, and you need to keep your head on a swivel. There's a ton of Pokemon go out there still. Don't be looking at your phone when you're just out and about by yourself.

I think I'm going to start that again myself. Alert and see what's going on out there. All right, put your phone down. Yeah, especially around these parts. Yeah, like, you know, it's not the safest to be out by yourself. So staring at your phone is dangerous. Look up, keep your eyes peeled. Someone's going to come up and just pants you.

Yeah, pants you right down. And then you're going to be embarrassed for the entire day. 315364-109 K-Rock. Text line, you can get in touch there. What do you? The first text. Can Fast Squidward come ride bikes? Yes, he can.

Fast Squidward's going to come out and ride bikes. I went boom-boom in my pantaloons. Come on it's K-Rock. Former. Multi-Ty-Ty. Former multi-time sweetgrass K-rockathon reboot the less than two weeks away now. Next, Saturday. We'll be there.

Oh, well, I won't be there. I actually have a dentist appointment, but Cody will be there. I can't miss this one. It is a cleaning, so it's, sorry. I'm getting my tubes tied. Oh, you are? Well, all right, so then we, neither of us will be there. Yep, sorry.

We were talking, Ben says, his wife worked at Dorsey's in the early 2000s. We always laughed our asses off when the finance bros would come in late at night, a bunch of 32-year-olds looking for college girls. Yeah. Yeah, we're trying to figure out, like, because there's like a certain demographic of older dudes that hangs around Armory Square.

Because it's weird. Is college is gone. Yeah, I don't know what they're looking for. Okay. So when you come down here, you know, late night, you're talking, you know, after Tase of Syracuse, I was walking back and forth, bringing stuff back. And it was throwing me for a loop at the,

it wasn't, there was no college kids. They were graduated. That was done. They're gone, yeah. Like that was over. And it was just. No, it's dudes in their 30s. Yeah.

I'm like my age and a little bit younger and even a little. little older. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, I'm back in college again. But it's old people. It, well, yes. Like, we're old. Yes.

Yeah. I don't know to break it to you, but we're too old to be hanging around bars. It was very weird to see the same type of college bro, but this, you know, our age, wearing the dress shirt. Yeah. Casually, because that's a still, you know, that's what you do with, uh, most of them wearing the, they had adapted the new thigh meat thing, so it was the

dress shirt, but like, you know, shorts way up. Yeah, shorts, shorts, yep, I know you're talking about. Most cologne that's ever existed. And, but what are they looking for, chicks? They're just hoping that chicks show up? I don't know. Do chicks hang out at bars? I don't know. I mean, they must, right? And then, I mean, the ones that were around

were very, um, like, the tiniest little night, uh, like, club dress. And like, there's, this is not a club scene, Armory Square. But they want it to be. Really bad. But then when it turns out to be a club scene, the places that are clubs are like

oh, well, this is no good. Well, yeah, that's what happens. This isn't not a club area. Like, when you get into your 30s, you're more like like a Harvey's garden is more where you should be. Yeah, go out and have some drinks, go home. Or like a freight yard brewing or like somewhere

where you get a nice beer, you sit down, like an omagang or something like that. The loud music. Oh my goodness. It's just not, it's nothing I was ever into in college. And now it's, it's even less appealing. Just like you said, that extremely loud bar where... I don't like it. My TV is too loud, let alone a loud bar.

Well, that and those places, I hate it, because the bartenders always seem angry. They're bothered by you, but they want you to come visit them. Come see me at work. They're put them when you get there and they're so mad. So mad. It ain't, it ain't a scene for me. It ain't seen. Yeah. No.

No. Those guys, I guess those guys don't really know what to do with themselves. They're just, they don't have personalities, so they'll go to the bar and hang out until it closes and... They're smoking cigarettes. Like, cigarettes are still a thing?

And then you're going to go right back inside. You know what I mean? I guess so. I don't know. I'm not fun. I don't know how people do for fun. Well, the one time I audibly laughed out loud because I'm not, there's no way in hell.

I'm going to get beat up by 10, you know, college bros or want to be college bros. But I did honestly laugh out loud when I can't remember what they One shouted, but they You know, flicked their sags And one guy shouted something While doing that thing from when you were in college

Where you slap the pack But he's got his zins. All right boys Swaping the packs All right And I just went And I just went Saturday for the boys

Pretty much And physical, with your ears and your eyes and your mouth. Next Saturday at the Sweetgrass, K Rockathon reboot, that is Alien Ant Farm. They are performing alongside Drowning Pool, set it off, candlebox, nothing more, in the School of Rock in Fayetteville.

Set times are up at K.rockathon.com. What? I was going to say, when we did the set times, did we do, did we add drowning pool? Because I don't remember when they play. What are you talking about? Remember yesterday when the set times? Yeah.

I couldn't remember. Could I not say it? I don't know because now I'm starting to see where it says, uh, yeah, there. Okay, 430. Maybe we did. Yeah, we must have if they were up there yesterday. All right, so them, them, them, cool. Set times are all up at K Rockathon.com.

Showbro, Andrew, texting me, said, guys, I listen to the show on demand so I won't hear this live, but I'm looking for a song from the 90s. I believe the band was called size 14, and it was something about a poster. So I looked it up. He's right. And I haven't played the song yet because there's something in my brain that remembers this. I don't.

That's not a... I did find it. Bringing back anything for me. The band is called size 14. The song was called Claire Dane's poster. Do you remember this? No. The album was yellow.

It had a brannic device on it. You know, the shoe measuring device invented right here. in Syracuse, New York. And we played it here, or he's just looking for it? I feel like somebody must have played this because I know this title. We wouldn't have played this here. I can just tell from that initial start. No?

No. No. No. She's hanging on. She's not like nothing more. K Rock played this. I can almost guarantee you. I would have never heard this anywhere else.

I don't remember this at all. In the library. No. ...beard's beer and stay at home and stare at my Clare Dane's poster. I remember this song and I don't know why. You've never heard this song? No. Good, fine, Andrew.

It sounds like one of those 90, late 90s, we're going to be wicked silly. Yeah, but why do I know this? Was it in a movie or something? Let me see. It does not have a lot of place. No. I can see why. Unreleased video

Wow, bro Taxi says I listen 10 hours a day I can confirm you did play this I've heard this before You remember I can confirm you remember 1997 vividly

She looks for bitching She always misses She never tells me I'm a loser I don't know why I know that song Andrew but I guarantee you I know that song It appeared in dude

Where's my car? Oh, maybe that was it? But why would I have, I know that line. Stair at my Clarendane's poster. Good job. I don't know. Unlocking a piece of the brain worm right there. Well, they've broken up, okay?

Oh, size 14. Thanks. That's terrible. Dredging up all of those terrible memories. Textline says, I do remember you guys played it enough for me to sing that chorus a few times a year. It just pops into my head. It must have been in the dude where's my car.

film, so that's why we know it. I don't know. I have no idea. It gets like five plays a month on Spotify, so it's not getting a lot now. Couple of days away, vendors setting up today. Gates open, bright and early Friday morning. We will be broadcasting live from the broadcast tower. Oh.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, I only had one demand, and it was a quick access off with a little slide down that you'd see like on a kid. Mm, Chief Engineer would love that. So is that available? Is it up on that? You would love to set that up for you, bud. I mean.

So good news from Disney adults. You're going to get a new dating app. Oh, okay, okay. Disney adults are the people that, you know, listen, I'm not going to say too much because we've got a few watching in here. Yeah, but they're not, they're not the annoying ones. No, they're not the annoying ones that I have a couple on my Fotch book that. But I'm like, I got, listen, you ain't hurting anybody.

and if this is a way for you to find somebody who has a sim and learned just to you, God love you. What do I care? Disney adults have a new dating app. And I think why not? If you're big into Disney and you want to go on these rides and spend your time at Disney, find someone similar to you who can share your joy in it. There's a dating app for literally everything now.

Yes, there is. It's going to be called Single Riders. The Benda Version is set to launch this year. It has been made by a guy named Joe the Bearded Nerd. on social media. Obviously. He came up with the idea two years ago after he got stood up on a date

and went to a bar at Disney World to get drunk. Okay. All right. He's been trying to loop in a programmer ever since and finally found one. Joe, no offense. I don't think that you really have an app.

You had an idea. Yeah, it's... You got drunk at a bar and had an idea. And you found somebody else to make the app. It doesn't sound any different from any of the other ones. It says, He sees it as a way for Disney adults to connect and see if there's a spark,

but it doesn't have to be a romance thing. So you're just looking for friends, too? That's how all of them kind of market themselves. No, just companionship. Because you can pick that in the options. It's like, you do what you're looking for, just friendship or... It's like, shut up. Is that an excuse married guys use when they get busted with those apps on their phone?

I was just looking for friends. Probably. I could absolutely. Absolutely see dudes doing that. I haven't to look for friends. I'm not looking for what? It says it right here. You're overreacting.

Hi, my name is Joe. I am one of the developers of single writers and other theme park enthusiasts dating app. So if you guys have any ideas of things that you would like to see in our dating app, please let me know. But yeah, like I'm super excited. This is happening. What I get, you heard in there the edit? Because he obviously can't say days.

No. Disney would sue his ass so fast. If he's like this is a Disney dating app, no. It's for theme park enthusiasts in the Orlando area. See, then it already has no legs. That's just like what? People down there can use it? It's a theme park. No, you get Disney behind. I don't know how much they would get behind something like that. Right. I can see them looking at that and being like, oh, this is kind of successful. Buying that so you don't screwed up and make us look dumb, ours now, and then, you know what I mean? Or you could go the other way and be more.

meet more vast and just appeal to theme park enthusiasts. Be like, hey, I'm an adult who likes to ride roller coasters. I'm looking for fellow adults that like to ride roller coasters. I already forgot. What is it called? What is it? This is called single riders. Single riders app. It's not launched yet. He's building it now. At Disney. Let's see. Oh, wait. No, not

at because that's just something like. Single riders. I want to see what it looked like. Single riders. Yeah, it's not listed. Yeah, post he says. Oh, really? All right. Yeah. He's working on He's asking people, do they have any things they'd like to have featured? One suggestion was a way to see if single riders are currently at the park. So you could go on spur of the moment dates with people. Okay, see that now that's kind of cool for, you know, very specific things where, you know, see who else is at? I'm at K Rockathon.

What other showgirls are out hanging around? You know what I mean? That's like, but that's just taking all of those. check in things one step further and making it very specific. It's a very specific social media. Yeah. Happy Tuesday. Tuesday means high. Strangeness.

The unexplained, the mysterious, the unsolved, and so much more. We get into something every Tuesday. Seven o'clock. The cookies. We get into the cookie jar. Now, this one we're going way back. Oh, fine. Normally it's like stuff within our lifetimes or near our lifetimes.

This one we were definitely not alive for. Polly was a young boy in December of 1872. But, well, yes, yes. The rest of us were not alive. Okay. Today's high strangeness is the story of the Mary Celeste. Cody, have you ever heard this one? That name sounds familiar?

Oh, no, I'm. Mama Celeste pizzas. Oh, yeah. No, not Mama Celeste's frozen pizzas, my friend. Which are. But today's segment brought you by Mama Celeste frozen pizzas. No, the Mary Celeste is a ship that left, I think like the New York, New Jersey area, to head over to Europe. And it just got abandoned.

No, see, that's the, that's the. stuff I don't like. It was discovered. They found it? Well, that's why it's weird. So I got some audio for you. Oh, I don't like that. Mary Celeste was fully loaded with like alcohol that was going to travel across the Atlantic Ocean.

Okay. Get to Europe with it. There's like a patch of islands called the Azores. It was found just floating 400 miles from this patch of islands, kind of like in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, with nobody on board. No signs of struggle, no signs of an emergency. A captain would never leave his ship

back in the 1800s. There was no captain. Hmm, that's weird. So let's learn about the Mary Celeste, shall we, with a little high strangeness? November 1872, during the worst weather since records began. Hundreds of vessels were lost or abandoned in the Atlantic.

One of these would be a legend. The Mary Celeste, an American registered brigantine, was found 400 miles east of the Azores. She was seaworthy, her cargo intact, and there was food and supplies for six months on board. It was not leaking. The sails were damaged, those that were up and had not been furled were damaged. Aside from that, there was no real structural damage to the boat. But ten persons, the captain, his family and crew, had vanished. without trace, leaving few clues as to their fate. They seem to be navigating their way fairly accurately throughout the voyage earlier on,

and suddenly there's a deviation to the north. An inquiry failed to discover what occurs later, the Mary Celeste took her secrets to a watery grave. In her wake, speculation, wild guesses, and many theories were proposed. None fitting all the facts. And to understand why an experienced captain would do the one thing that really is unthinkable, which is to leave your vessel. Experience person would do it only if you thought the vessel was going down.

The captain, Benjamin Spooner Briggs. Oh, they got him. His wife and daughter were among the crew members that were never found. They have so many random theories about what could have happened to the ship. They say, well, was it pirates? Nothing was missing. Nothing was stolen. Then then, nope.

They say, was there an emergency? There was no signs of struggle. Nobody was like panic. they this was a real theory gigantic ocean monster took them supernatural maybe aliens took them

I mean the only thing I can think of that would be plausible but not would be they got off all of them at that island and the boat like drifted away maybe and it drifted away and there was no no way for them to get

back Nobody, you know what I mean? Nobody. But why did nobody find them on the island? Nobody's ever found these people. Nobody went and did anybody go and look? The booze was on board. All of the alcohol they were transporting was still on board.

No one knows what happened, but there is theories. The most common theory is that the crew abandoned ship in a hurry, perhaps fearing the alcohol was leaking and could explode. But no signs of fire or damage were ever found, and only nine of the 1,7001 barrels were empty. Plus, would a seasoned captain like Briggs really leave a perfectly seaworthy vessel in the middle of the ocean? Of course, people have always loved a good mystery, so some wilder theories have emerged. Pirates? Unlikely since nothing was stolen.

Sea monsters or the Bermuda Triangle? Sure, it's fun to speculate, but there's no evidence to support it. And then there's the idea of mutiny, though Captain Briggs was known for being a fair and capable leader. Now let's take a look at some more scientific explanations. So there's some more scientific they're going to get into now. What? TechSign caught one of them, a rogue wave. You ever seen just a rogue wave randomly hit a ship?

Yeah, but... It's 1800s, maybe they're all out on the... Every single person? Every single person was out standing in the one spot where a big rogue wave would get... I don't know, but, yes, obviously very possible. There was also something... I don't know if it's in this clip, but when I was researching last night, I know how much you love the ocean.

There's a thing called, underwater earthquakes, I guess, that can happen. And when they happen, it kind of like opens up the ocean. Great. So there's that theory that like an underwater earthquake just kind of sucked the ship down, got the bodies off it, then the ship just went back to the top. Like, it's weird. One possibility is a seaquake and underwater earthquake.

The ship could have been shaken violently enough to make the crew think it was sinking, causing them to flee in a panic. Another theory is bad weather. The Mary Celeste may have been caught in a sudden squall or water spout. If the ship took on water, the crew might have thought she was about to go under, even though the ship later righted itself. But again, the ship was found in near perfect condition, with no sign of major damage. In more recent years, researchers have taken a fresh look at the Mary Celeste mystery,

and one theory stands out. In 2006, a British team ran experiments showing that alcohol fumes from the cargo could have caused a powerful explosion. So what they're going to explain now is this new theory is that because it was pure alcohol they were transporting. You used to like alcohol on fire all the time. You know. Yeah, it burns.

It burns real. Very good, very clean. Yes. So they think maybe there was like alcohol fumes and it just that exploded but didn't really leave any damage. So they all just jumped. But without leaving any burn marks. According to this theory, the fumes could have built up in the ship's hold and a

spark may have caused a sudden explosion of air pressure. The crew, thinking the ship was about to catch fire or explode, may have fled in the lifeboat only for something to go wrong, leaving them stranded at sea. While it's a plausible theory, it still doesn't explain why the crew didn't attempt to return to the ship, especially if they saw it hadn't caught fire. Whatever happened, the Mary Celeste remains one of the greatest mysteries of the sea. The ship itself went on to sail under different owners until it was wrecked in 1885. Somebody else took it. But her eerie, unexplained voyage in 1872, still haunts maritime history.

Today's high strangers is the Mary Celeste. So part of that is what bothers me more. The lifeboat was missing. So whatever happened, let's just say the crew got on this lifeboat, they've never been found. Meaning 10 people just floated in the ocean in a little lifeboat. God knows what happened. Yeah.

Bodies never washed up on shore. That lifeboat was never found because it was in the middle of the ocean. No parts of these people were ever found. No like navigational tools are ever found. It's just, I can't even. It's the worst, right? It's the worst.

I just can't even think about. That's just, yeah, it is the worst. So either something shook the lifeboat loose and it just drifted away, or they actually got on the lifeboat and died. like Cody said, horribly on the ocean. God knows how. Or maybe they were lucky enough to get to those islands, then still died horribly on those islands.

Again, no lifeboat. Or, I don't know how deep you get into like the Amelia Earhart stuff, but like that part of the ocean has just random islands, especially back in the 1870s that are not inhabited by anybody but horrific tribes. Yeah. Like there's theories that like Amelia Airheart. Earhart and her co-pilot landed on one of those islands and they were just eaten. Like that's a, in 1872, these people could have been on a lifeboat that found a random island

with a tribe that had never seen, I don't know, white people or whatever. Just anybody else at all. Kills them, murders them. Yeah. Show up in a, you know, a boat. Yep. Horrific time. Today's high strangeness.

Oh, man. The Mary Celeste. Look into it if you want some more. No, thank you. My mom. Good time. Get ready for a wild. road weekend at South Butler Motorsports Park in Savannah, New York, hosted by Maximum Power Park.

Starting July 18th, it's nonstop action with mud trucks, side by sides, and ATVs tearing it up across trails, mud bogs, and epic tug-of-war battles all weekend long. Enjoy live music with Kelsey Lynn headlining Saturday night. Purchase your tickets at the gate and bring the whole crew. Kids five and under get in free. Whether you're riding or rocking, this is the off-road party you don't want to miss. What? I'm looking at prices on those. tobacco things. The ones that they were suggesting,

yeah, they're expensive. Well, I found a list of like the 20 best. Dude, the best one is like $700.

Yeah, well, this one is $4.49. Yeah. I looked up that list. Trust me, that's why I'm still using the one that I got for free.

Well, I'm trying to find something that I saw a long time ago that I think you would like and I can't, I can't find it down. I'm going to give a Syracuse Nationals plug.

Guys, we're going to be talking here to Paul with Brush Fest. a little bit. Oh, that was cool last year. We watched a little bit that last year. I love it.

It's so good. They did a little mini version at Cavalcator Cars. This is the big one. We're like a quarter of the expo center is people painting and auctioning things off for charity, a whole bunch of great stuff. Were we going to get something for in here last year, but we just didn't? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, they do like skateboard and stuff.

I think I'll ask Paul for the information, but of course you can get all the information at Syracusenationals.com. You know, I'll be there. You know, I'll be there. You're going? Great. Oh, no, I'm not going. The lights got reset by a ghost.

What happened to the lights? I don't know. Does somebody unplug him? I don't know. It's like a ghost. Damon Hankins, age 34, was arrested in Florida. Oh. Now, not only was he going 105 on his motorcycle.

Oh. He was mimicking the post from Titanic with both of his hands out like this. Yeah, that's not going to be. what you want to do on a motorbike. The motorcyclist drives a Kawasaki Ninja ZXSR has a history

of driving violations including operating an unregistered vehicle he was released on $300 bond. It's always those guys that are going to cause an accident. Yeah. And I'm supposed to feel bad about it. When, come on now.

Well, I know. It's the same where I'm like, Yes, there's some of those rules about lane splitting and different things like that, but I'm pretty sure that none of that applies when we're in a construction zone, and there's only two lanes, and motorcycle comes flying down the middle and then gives people the finger because we didn't all split. Like Moses parting the seats. The people in the left lane didn't get further in the left.

People on the right didn't get further to the right, so he could come flying down the middle. I with your eyeballs and your ear holes next Saturday at the... Sweetgrass. K Rockathon reboot, presented by Monster Energy Drink and Messis Fireworks, performing alongside nothing more. Cattlebox, drowning pool, set it off, and Alien Ant Farm tickets just 40 bucks, dude, for an all-day rock show. Yes, you can get those at Krockathon.com. Boom. And enjoy the show.

Some of you asking, where do I get the OG bundle? So if you get that OG pass, it comes with a little swag bag, if you will, that will be at the merch tent. And then your next question is going to be like, what do I have to bring to the merch tent? We have your name on a list. So if you bought the OG upgrade, we will have your name under whoever bought it. You head over to the merch tent and we'll get your swag bag for you right there. Plus, you can get custom T-shirts throughout the day. That's going to be where it's at.

And then a design that I don't know what boss lady. came up with. She asked our advice and then we angered her, so she left. So I don't know what that design will be. We'll find out. But lots of fun stuff right over there at the T-shirt stands. We ain't, no, she adores us. Who us? No, I don't know if that. She adores us. We're

not very likable, I don't believe. Um, all right. I didn't know this was a thing. I'm rarely on TikTok, but I guess it's a thing. Do you know the Gen Z stare? you do though because my kids do it I'm assuming a lot of the youths do it now you're you just did it

I'm just staring at you that's the Gen Z stare and they're putting it in TikToks now where okay so say I'm just looking at you say I'm working at McDonald's and you walk in you just walked into McDonald's yeah I'm looking at the board first right now

Uh-huh, you're looking at the board. Okay, I'm ready to order. You walk up to the counter. Come here. Hi. It's there. And it's so accurate. If you've got teenagers, that dead-eyed stare of like,

they don't know what to say back. They don't know words. Hello. I don't know how to interact. Google says the top trending search right now is the Gen Z stare because the kids don't know how to reply. They claim that Gen Zers are so bad at real-life interactions, they can't even make small talk.

I can't throw shade at Gen Z because that's me. I'm bad at, but I, it's one of those old guy things where I'm going to agree. That they can't make, yeah, they're of a different generation. Everything is digital to them. Yep. So to have a face-to-face communication, you ask a simple question or say hi and it's a deer in the headlights. Yep.

Many videos are going viral because they're imitating the Gen Z stare. I have, I have that all the time because I respond with after. I'll go, all right then. That was great. Thank you. Or you don't mean some type of smart-ass comment. Just because you get that a lot. All of the times where you just don't know what to do. And I'm like, I'm not on this side where you are.

You are not me. You have to help me. All right. Okay. What size? What? What? Bore.

Okay. Yeah. No, I can't. Please pull ahead. Listen, they have a 10th evening. There's a lot of people might as you just have that dead-eyed stare. Oh, yeah. Yes, yes.

Trust me, but it is more prevalent, sure, with the... With the teens, kicking off at noon, Cody and I'll be at the all-new dazed dispensary. 135 Marshall Street up on the S-U Hill. Dazed is open in 15 minutes. Dazed has the extended hours. Yeah, they go. 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. every day. Why even close at that point?

Yeah, right. 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. Days is open and starting tomorrow at noon or tomorrow only. From noon to 149. We'll be doing a 109 minute ticket. Stop giving away tickets every 15 minutes. To the Sweet Grass K Rockathon reboots. No purchase necessary. Stop by and see us. We'd love to see you. No noon tomorrow till 149. Stop by. Get some of that good, good. And possibly win some tickets. Just say hi. Just say hi. No purchase necessary. All right. Cool.

You see your boy Ray Romano, busting out some hip-hop. I didn't know that this was him. Ray Ramano's going, bud. I'm a rapper now. He's cooking. I don't know why they needed to do this. This was...

Why is there a live band? I don't know. Sports Radio 8-10 in Kansas City had him in there yesterday. Good for them. That's major market sports radio right there, getting Ray Romano to post M&M open on stage. I am goodness, I am going to wrap Marshall Mathers. Will the...

Will the real Deborah please stand up? I'm an M. Where's the scandals? This week, grass. K Rockathon reboot is just about a week and a half away. Next Saturday over at the great New York State Fairgrounds, nothing more. Alien ant farm, drowning pool, set it off. And who am I forgetting?

Say it again? Candlebox, nothing more. Drowning pool, set it off. Damn, but why do I do this to myself? Why are I so bad at this? I don't know. I go in the other order. I have it on my shit. The kids are on first, then set it off, then alien ant farm, then drowning pool, then

can't a box, then nothing more. That's all of them. No, we're good. We did it right. I did it right. Yeah, I got them all. All right, that's all of them. So you go from the reverse.

This is just a two-week stretch of I have to promote so many different things that keeping them straight in my brain is a little tricky. Is this a sports thing, the new SEC theme song? People care about that? Oh, I have no idea. Do we have an ACC theme song? Probably on the ACCC network. There might be something, but now these ones, you're going way too far.

There's only a couple where some of the NFL ones, like the NBA and NBC, you know, the round rock, the round ball, whatever. Okay. Give me the basketball because I'm going to dunk it. But after that, your songs are. I haven't played a year. It's going to, I know it's going to stop. It's going to be, I don't even know, a variant of like the instrumental football music.

No, this is. Oh, somebody did a song? Yeah, Luke Combs and Bailey Zimmerman's backup plan is the 2025 SEC theme song, baby. I already hate it. I don't know what it's going to be, but I guarantee it it was going to be backup plan. Put your back in, do it, get the team on the last.

Hemp, football, I'm on a Saturday. Ready? Ready? Don't need a football in on SEC. So your bag's backed up against wrong. There it is. Talk about what you're going to do if it don't work out. You're maybe going to think about what you're going to do.

Did he just say you should think about what you're going to do if it doesn't work out? Maybe you should think about what you're going to do. About what you're going to do if it don't work out. Things you definitely don't want to do playing football. your head down, keep on the blinders. Yeah, don't look around at all. I don't know how people listen to this stuff. That's the stupidest crap I've ever heard my entire life.

New country music is so bad. Can we just go back to that's like second line about you're going to have to think about starting to talk about what you're going to do when it doesn't work out? I'm going to jump off the building. Does it maybe like maybe he, maybe that's like to your doubters. But maybe like your parents are like, well, what are you going to do? do if it doesn't work out. Well, it's going to work out because my back's against the wall and we win a football

games. Yes, but you even just said it better there than he did with I don't even remember the first line, but it even starts worse than I thought it did. Oh my God. We need an ACC theme. If this is the, I mean, I get it. There's a bunch of dumb morons of like Loucoms. I don't know. Should have AI generate something.

I don't know anything. Like the lyrics are so, man. Maybe going to think. about what you're going to talk about when it ain't going to work out. What would our ACC theme be? Come on, Fran. Fran, what are we going to do for our ACC theme? Run the ball, catch a ball, put it on the ground. Fran wouldn't lit this garbage anywhere near his field.

No. He'd something respectable. We'd play something respectable. I forgot what he has said that he likes. Doesn't he like Fitty? Yeah, okay. Fiddy in the game. I mean, there'd be some cool stuff.

I don't know. He's younger than me. So I don't know what kind of music. he listens to. If to ask him what he wants to talk about, think about what you're going to do when we don't work at. Dispensary tomorrow at noon for 109 minutes. Cody and I will be giving away K-Rockathon reboot tickets

every 15 minutes. Uh-huh. Stop over to day's dispensary up on the S-U-Hill-135 Marshall Street right between Chipotle and Insomnia cookies. Are those good cookies? Insomnia cookies are very good cookies. I've seen them around and I've never had me before, So I don't get that.

You can do a burrito, some cookies, and then get some good good. Right? Well, I want the hat. Oh, the day's hat. Yeah, they have good merch. That I like, because I was looking, um, they hooked me up. Why? They gave me the jumpsuit.

Yeah, that's expensive, dude. I'm gonna, I gotta rock that. I can't, dude. That's what cool kids wear. It's like a matching gray sweatsuit, right? Yeah. Dude, you're gonna look hip. You're gonna look real hip.

That's what I'm saying. I'm gonna look like a cool nude. You're gonna look at hip or everyone's like old head uncle who's hanging around the barbecue and he's like just, just sipping on something, yeah. One of the two. Either one. So, Ranker, ranked,

follow me here. They asked people to rank their favorite old-aged cartoon characters, meaning not cartoon characters that have been around for a long time. Like Grandpa Simpson. Bingo, that's what I would have said, first out the gate. Oh, is that number, didn't make the list. Okay, that was just an example. Let me think, though, because that's now all I can think of is Grandpa Simpson.

Me too. But I'll start with the number 11 then. Okay. Mr. Burns from the Simpsons. old cartoon character. I would have said Grandpa Simpson way over. Way over Mr. Burns. Both of them are I would put right up there.

That's like 1A and 1B. Some of these I don't know though. Okay. What? Rick. From where? Rick and Morty. Oh, did that make the list?

No? Not top 20. Oh, no, yep. He did 18. Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty. Okay. Carl from up. Is Carl the old guy who's life thine?

That, yeah. That, I don't know why, but I've watched always Sunny randomly, and that scene that they do or they reenact the up thing with Charlie and the waitress is like the saddest thing ever. Who's his real life? Yes. Yeah, they're all kind of doing things. What do you mean?

Mack and Kate and Olson are married. Yeah, yeah. Dennis and there's a supermodel that shows up in the show once every so often. They're married. They're married? They're all they are? Yep. Crickets married to

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's married to somebody important too. Yeah, they're all... Yeah, anyways. Together, just doing genital touching. Carl from up, Mama Oldie from the Princess and the Frog. I don't know the Princess and the Frog. No, that's a Disney movie, I think, though.

I think I've seen that. Bender from Futurama, also TK999. Because I think Bender's old. He doesn't look old, but he is. A couple of these are just old. Like, number seven is the minions. Because the minions have been around for a long time. See, I don't know that story enough.

You think they're little babies, but they're not. They're like old little alien things. Oh, honestly, yeah, if you would have asked me, I would have been like, yeah, they're, they're little toddlers. Number six, great one. Papa Smurf. Oh, all right. Papa Smurfs is a great old cartoon character. I'm kind of struggling with this one, so they're all surprising me.

I don't know Uguwe from Kung Fu Panda, but that's number five. I've never seen those with Jack Black. I've never seen any of them. Number four, the rest of these are going to be kind of interesting because number four is Wally, even though Wally is like a robot, he's old. That makes sense because the whole point of that is that he's no longer needed because he's old outdated robot, right? And it's like times have changed.

Cosmo from the fairly odd parents. Neither of us are going to know that. No, I remember that. That was one of the few shows that when my brother was younger, all those Nickelodeon ones. And that was one of them where that was actually pretty good. They would also have little like. adult jokes. We know kids are

watching, but we know the adults have to watch them. Yeah, those are good. Here's a little sexual innuendo for you. Same with Phineas and Ferb, but my kids would watch that. I love that show. And you'd be like, wait a minute, did I just catch, I did. Um, Professor Farnsworth from Futurama. Oh, that big one. That's a good one. But number one. Yeah, I can't. Let me, hold, what's? You gotta think.

I'm bouncing around, like, old cartoons. Like, fourth dimension. This is someone who has been around for a very long time. Simpsons What's another show? It's not a cartoon. Old. I'm not going to get it.

I'm not going to get it. It's been around forever, not you. I don't even have a guess. Not even. Well, Alibaba had them fordiv's out of a thousand days. I'm okay with this. The genie.

I'm okay with this. He's been in there for how long? I get how old was he? I forget how long they said he was in there. You got some punch. Cousin Jay Davis and Nome, great one. What a song. And I'll say.

Mr. Alamzer, what will you your pleasure be? 10,000 years! And such a crick in the neck. That's the part I was trying to remember. 10,000 years. That's officially the oldest. Who's going to be older than 10,000 years, man? That makes sense.

Oldest cartoon characters. Who'd they forget? We are just a few days. away from your Napa auto parts, Syracuse Nationals. Joining us in studio, Alexis and Paul. Good morning to both of you. Hey, good morning, good morning. Let's start with Paul.

As one of the biggest kind of features at the Nationals is Brushfest. I mean, you take up a physical amount of space right there in the Expo Center. A little bit. It's always something to go check out. So people who don't know, explain what Brush Fest is. All right, Brush Fest is 60 pinstriping and lettering artists, airbrush artists. they come in on their own dime they pay for everything

their hotel room their travel everything else and what we do is we pinstripe panels and bowling pins and you name it and if you have a car or a motorcycle or anything else that you want lettered come and see me

and we can get it done right there by anybody that you choose or we'll just pick someone that you know we'll do the job for you and these are some of the past artists oh my god yeah I mean these guys are you know, world class. They're going to cost you a lot of money any other time,

but now you can get these special items pinstriped. And you set panels, bowling pins. If they can bring it in the Expo Center, you guys will paint it, right? Oh, absolutely. If you stand still long enough, we'll paint you. What's the weirdest thing you guys have painted over the years, do you know? Probably an eye patch. Oh, nice.

But the money goes to a great cause. How many years have we been doing this with Brushfest? I've been doing it since 21. We would have done it in 20, but at COVID. Yep. But I took it over from our chilling, and I'm going to say we're probably close to 20 years, I guess. Wow. Last year, the actual number is $83,000.

$83,000 raised for the Ronald McDonald House here of CNW. Which goes directly to the Central New York, Ronald McDonald's house. It doesn't go to the national thing and get divvied up. It stays right here. And like Paul said, all these artists pay their own way here. They're paying their own lodging. They're staying here all on their own dime to benefit the Ronald McDonald's house here right in our backyard. So tell me about the Ronald McDonald's house, Alexis.

What services do we provide? Yeah. So we've been in the Syracuse community for over 40 years. And we provide housing, meals, transportation, and really kind of envelope families who are coming in from, you know, out of the Syracuse area with their children who are seriously ill or injured, seeking that medical care at the Syracuse local community hospitals. And so we try to provide everything that they may need so that they can focus solely on the care of their children. So everything that we do is at no cost. We have 25 guest bedrooms at the Ronald McDonald House. And we actually just opened up our fourth floor, which has six family-style suites.

So that's really for families who are coming in that are a little larger, multi-generational or even immunocompromised kids that are staying with us. So it just gives them some more space to spread out and heal. We also just opened up a hospitality cart up at Krause, which is essentially a cart that goes to the bedside of the patients. Oh, wow. So we're bringing that hospitality to the bedside, providing things like chargers, water bottles, snacks, blankets, things for the kids to play with while they're up there. It's removing all the stresses besides getting healthy. You focus on that.

You guys worry about the rest. Correct. Yes. So it's really the idea that when a child is sick, the family is sick and we want to make sure that we're providing everything that we possibly can so that they can solely focus on the care of their children. So how do we get that money into our community, Paul? Do we need to make an appointment of Brush Fest? Do we show up? How does it work?

Oh, well, I mean, like I said, we do have a Buy It Now table. Okay. And you can come by and everything's there as priced, and you come by and just pick it up. If you see a piece of artwork that will go out to the auction and you're really interested in it, we can give you a price on that piece. We're not going to dicker too much on the price

because you want to buy it before the auction. Yeah. But if you want to buy it, you can buy it. And it's going to a good cause. Of course. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely.

So people can take part in the auction. How many auctions do we have in per day? One on Friday, two on Saturday, one on Sunday. And the times are two on Friday, 10 and two on Saturday, 10 on Sunday. Yeah. And it's just, if you just want to be a nosy Nelly and watch these artists work, I do that. I just go stand over there and watch them paint. It was awesome.

It's just fascinating, the steady hands when they're doing pinstriping and the airbrushing. It's incredible. Oh, yeah. We're like this all day. All right. It's Brushfest. It is back. We're raising money. I mean, I know Paul wants to beat $83,000.

Let's do it this year. How does that sound? Your lips to God's ears. Right inside the Expo Center, you can't miss it. You'll see kind of like a big podium. We'll see Paul walking all over the place. You'll see all the pieces out. Like you said, if you see, I mean, I've seen skateboards there.

I've seen pieces of panels, all that. You can just buy them for artwork. Hang them up in your house and all that. And the money goes right to a great cause. If people aren't coming to Brushfell, How can they contribute to the Ronald McDonald's house? If you want to visit RMHCNY.org, we have a donation link right there. Feel free to check that out.

We also have an opportunities page if you're looking to get more involved with volunteering. We have our meals that heal. We have our hospitality cart. So whatever you're looking to get involved with, check that out. And people who need your services can use that same website? So the services actually go through the hospitals. Okay. Yep.

All right. Paul, can't wait to see what you drum up this weekend. I always look forward to it. Me neither. I'm a little nervous, but... You're going to do great. That'll be awesome. Napa Auto Part Syracuse Nationals kicking off Friday morning through the weekend.

We'll see you down there. Guys, there's so much to list. I literally have two pages in front of me, and that's not even covering everything that will be at the Syracuse Nationals this weekend. Just looking at my map thing or whatever. There's a lot going on. So let me just pick a couple of things that I'm going to go see. All right. I like the TV and movie vehicles.

The Batmobile is going to be there. Somebody made a George Jail. Jetson flying car and the mystery machine. I'm going to go look at those. It's actually George Jetson's actual car from the show. Oh, okay. Fine. I'm definitely checking out the lowrider experience.

Yeah, that's... Because I've been rolling in my six foe since night, rolling in my six foe. Bada pop. With all the Cody saying, Can I stop? Hey, let me ride.

Oh, hell yeah. And that's that's that. three-wheel motion. Oh. I'm going to check out those C-10s, too. I like those square-body, like little, like, squatty trucks. Yeah. C-10 invasion is going to be happening.

I got to go see Dion Dawkins do his drift stuff. Yeah, I want to see if he's going to be ripping around somewhere. Buffalo Bills, Dion Dawkins will be on site with Monster Energy, the drift performance with Schnoe performance. That's his brand, I believe. I'll just try to get out an autograph. He's calling into the show tomorrow. We can talk to him then.

That's cool. and you were lots of treats. You were going to go to the jerky hut. But then I explained to you what it was. Oh, no, I thought it was something else. Like one of those breastfeeding rooms that you can close and then go inside. And it's just... Not it.

It's not it. Not it at all. I've never understood homeowners associations. I guess some of you like them. I have always felt like I paid for this land. I pay the taxes on this land. You can't tell me what to do on this land. It's the dumbest thing ever.

There's no way you would ever get me. To agree to any of that, but then the stories I hear where people park the work truck in their driveway, get asked. Because that's, you know, they have a business. Yeah. Or just like random. I've tried to watch some of those videos, but I never know what's real and what's fake where people come over because you have like lawn furniture out and stuff. You know what I mean? Or you put your decorations out.

Well, here's one for you. Arizona homeowner has been fined repeatedly $100 by his HOA for giving out cold water to delivery. He has a cooler on his porch that just says, help yourself or whatever. Yeah. And they find him $100 a month. Unreal. That's not anything that would ever hold up at a court of law, right? It will with the HOA if you have agreed to it?

Yeah, if you've agreed to it. It's really for the drivers. It's for the families. It's for the kids. It's to do something positive in a world that needs it. I stand firm on the fact that I'm not paying the fines. The cooler's not going anywhere. where I know there's going to be a legal battle.

We're preparing for it even right now. Do I know what that entails? No. Do I know the cost? No. But we are going to fight. And it's not just about water. It's about the community as a whole. How dare he be a decent human fuss?

Exactly. No, that's insane. The rules that anybody would ever think that that type of community is okay. HOA's seem to be like for people who have nothing else to do but nitpick all and everything in the neighborhood. Well, we have certain standards that we uphold in this community. Get out of here. Get out of here.

Like, no, you don't uphold them at all. You just think that the best way to go about things is to be the most uptight pieces of garbage. I'd last a half an hour with a homeowners association. I'd be outside of my underpants. I'd be setting off fireworks. I'll be lighting things on fire. I'll be doing whatever I want. Yeah.

No, I wouldn't be dealing with any of that. Or like that one guy He couldn't have a boat So he put the fence up And painted it like a boat I didn't remember that yeah Yeah But there are those guys that like put up giant fences

Because they own a thing They own all I own a jet ski and that's offensive to you Get it I can't park my work truck in the driveway Even though my business is more profitable Than any of the businesses that you have But you're gonna yell me for having a work truck

Than the driveway You mean I can't put a pup out area In my backyard and play with a flamethrower number I want. Right? I don't think so. Don't you tell me. No. 3.91065 K-Rock. So they found a teddy bear in California and it was wrapped in human skin.

What? But yeah. It's not really human skin. It's art. But Google it. Actually, I'll show everybody here. What? Yeah. This is, I don't know why I'm aware of this artist, but I am aware of his work. No, that's not.

He's human. No. That's where I'm drawing the line as far as people. Art is subjective. Uh-huh. Artis subjective. Nope. An image. Sorry.

No. No. I can barely see it. No. Answers no. What's the question? No. Investigators in California were looking into reports of a teddy bear wrapped in human skin.

Yeah. But it was not human skin. It was just latex. The creation is from artist Robert Kelly of dark seed creations. He claims. He had just sold the art, and it had nothing to do with the prank, I guess. People are, uh, people were concerned. I guess I'd probably be lying if I said I wasn't enjoying it a little bit.

You know, I'm an independent artist. I know what starving artist life feels like. So little attention is sometimes good. I mean, I don't know if the guy broke any laws or if it was just a prank, but it looks like he definitely got some people riled up. You like that? You're seeing it on your screen? That's just that teddy bear with the blood and the human skin?

Like, that's just weird. I don't, it's not a, I don't know. I don't know. I guess I just don't have that creative part of the brain firing. If you walk into a lady's bedroom and she has this, you're about to have the best sex of your life. I hate to tell it to you. Absolutely.

See, now I got it. Now I got to take a note from my TV, I guess. TV people aren't co-workers. They're like, what? What do you mean? The hell am I trying to say? My colleagues? Colleagues, yes.

Need to take something from a colleague? Take a note from my colleagues and get into your 90s and I'm with an uplifting story. You kind of end the broadcast with an uplifting story before you get into the gaming stream. Truckload of babies and puppies die. Oh, wait. Opposite of that. Although TV news people, can I ask a question? Box of kittens hucked off bridge.

Is it a rule that I'm supposed to say the name of the anchor I'm throwing it back to every time? me throw it back. I think that's just like a thing they do. Back to you, Josh, in the studio. No, but they do this thing now where they're like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, Cody? Oh, I know what you're saying.

It's another one of those where they learned something in college, and so that, you know what I mean? They assume that the people that are teaching them in college has got to be gospel if they're teaching you in college. Little do they know. They don't really know what's going on. Yeah, little do they know. They know nothing.

Josh? Thank you. All right, fine. I wasn't ready. Sorry, sorry about that. You didn't throw back to me. Sorry about that. Before we get into your 90s and 9, Cody.

I don't even know. I don't know anything here. I have an uplifting story for you, all right? All right. Let's hear it, Josh. A mailman in Texas named Ian does his mail routes. Struck and killed by a truck.

No, no, he's alive and well. One of the people on his route, a Vietnam vet recently passed away, and Ian adopted their dog. Oh, that's adorable. So the dog would have a home. Let's hear that. I met Floyd about three years ago.

I was delivering mail. He loves to hug. I mean, this is kind of like his hug. Is this Cody doing his COVID show where he's out on the porch when he's here in the purse? Everybody like a friend, like he'd known him forever. I heard a coworker talking about this dog at the shelter. And the description that he was giving him was matched Floyd. And I said, hey, you're talking about Floyd?

He said, yeah. We heard from someone saying he wanted to adopt Floyd. So his old was up on a Monday morning. and that particular person named Ian was here at the front door on that Monday morning. Ian adopted the dog. And now it's his body. Thank you for the final Admiral Snack Bar.

I apologize that. What an uplifting story. A guy in his longtime partner dog, he dies and the dog goes to a shelter. Guess when you look at it like that. I just guess when you look at it like that. It's all in the framing, right? Yeah.

The first 60% of the story is, a bummer. He got out. Guy dies. His dog is homeless. Dog gets sent to his shelter. Yeah, dog sits there. We're all bummed there. But then... Then the dog gets adopted. Yeah. So, they were fine. It's like a 65-35.

Today a man is dead and a dog is saved. Josh... Thanks, Cody. Yeah, the man is very dead and his dog is homeless. But good news, as the dog has been adopted by the mailman, Cody.

And I hear we have words from that dog. Josh. Oh, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, Cody. The dog said it back to me. All right, radio world, we'll hand you off to the 90s at 9. Twitch, we're going to be gaming, gaming powered by dazed dispensary. Tomorrow at noon, Cody and I will be on site for 109 minutes,

as we're giving a, oh boy, giving away tickets every 15 minutes to the sweet Grass Kay Rogganon reboot. Almost the dog days of summer. No purchase necessary. Stop by and see your boys tomorrow at noon over at days dispensary. But they're open late. Days they are open. They open at 8 a.m. every day.

And they close at 2 a.m. So if you like those extended hours, dazed dispensary up on Marshall Street, 135 Marshall Street on the S.U. Hill. Radio World, you get a little folk implosion. Nineties and nine starts. All right, meow.
