The Mark Arum Show 08-11-26 HR 3

No, I'll run this town to be near you. I stand alone. Level 104 on a very busy Newsday Tuesday. Welcome back, friends, Mark Airman crew with you till noon. Coming up, we're going to update our top local stories, including new changes to the Conyers alcohol rules. And if you live in Atlanta, your trash and recycling bills are set to rise. But first and foremost, Debra, we've got an amazing pair of tickets to give away right now. Yeah, Blackberry Smoke coming back to town. It's been a couple of months and we've had a chance to see them. So now starting to get a lot of those fall shows in. So Blackberry Smoke going to be at the Tabernacle on November 27th. All right, let's do, you pick the number, caller to Vinny Drip. Six. He just turned 26 years old. So we'll go with caller six. Is that, is that all right, Vin? Sixth should not be that bad. You're all right. Oh, I don't have my Vinny stick figure today. What happened? So let me didn't steal it. It's on my desk. No, it's on my desk. All right. Sixth caller to 404-872050. Caller number six to 404-8720. Wednesday, a pair of tickets to Blackberry Smoke, courtesy of Mark Aram Show at 955. WSB. Joining us now from ABC News, our buddy Arthur Jay Jones the second, Arthur, at the risk of alienating the Thousands of CDC workers that listen to the Mark Aram Show on the daily. Got some health updates out of the White House yesterday with President Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. What did we learn? So President Trump yesterday made this announcement an executive order to change the childhood vaccine schedule. And this could impact millions of families, moms and dads and kids across the country. President Trump is arguing that the vaccination schedule should be reduced from 18 to 11. And also, the big change here is making that measles, mumps, and Rubella single. dose vaccination, three separate shots. And this has caused widespread confusion and criticism not only from families, but health experts who say that this would increase the amount of doses instead of reducing. Yeah. As soon as that executive order was announced, there was immediate backlash from the health community. What power does this executive order have or not have when it comes to childhood vaccines? Well, this is a tricky subject because these policies that President Trump attempts to implement these executive orders over the last 18 months have nearly all been challenged in courts. Some rolled back, some never really been getting off the ground. And from the health community, from a bipartisan standpoint, this is getting a lot of condemnation. Bill Cassidy, who's the chairman of the Senate's help committee, said that this is so very wrong. Bill Cassidy is a physician.

He is a longtime doctor who has treated patients with hepatitis B. And now the hepatitis Z vaccine in this executive order is no longer required for families. And so like I said, bipartisan condemnation, there will be challenges in legal lawsuits. So we'll have to see what happens next. Does this all go back to the theory that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. has that vaccines are the main cause of autism here in the United States? Well, President Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. are linked in this issue that vaccinations... are causing this rise in child autism. They both have said these unfounded claims, even though dozens of studies suggest otherwise. And yes, so they are on the same page which this could cause the rise in autism. That's why we have to reduce the immunizations. And President Trump even said in the Oval Office yesterday, something that is completely unfounded, that these vaccinations have been lethal in some cases, which health experts do. deny. And so, yes, President Trump and Health Secretary Robert McKinney Jr. have both been espousing these notions about vaccinations that thus far have been deemed untrue. Arthur Jay Jones II from ABC News joining us here on the Mark Ames show. Arthur, at the very least, to me, this would cause a lot of confusion for parents, grandparents out there on what they should or should not do when it comes to vaccinations and their kids. And you're exactly right, especially. during back to school season. Parents are already confused about what to put in their children's bodies, especially when they go back to school when we talk about food, when we talk about vaccinations. But the number one thing that families should be doing right now is just consulting their physician on all health. topics. Any of these issues, any of this confusion that you're having, this should be a conversation with your child's doctor's pediatrician. Yeah, absolutely. Talk to your doc. You mentioned food. While I have you, Arthur, we'll end with this. The aforementioned health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.., celebrating the Eat Real Food Campaign yesterday. What exactly was that all about? His eat real food campaign is another pledge by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. to get Americans. to eat less ultra-processed foods and more whole-based nutrient-dense foods, these fruits and these vegetables, and just eat healthier, essentially. A noble cause, one might add. However, this is happening at the exact same time. There are two major food outbreaks in the U.S., one of which is tied to iceberg lettuce. And now some of these foods like lettuce and jalapinos that we've seen in the salmonella cases, been recalled, but still thousands of cases of cyclosporiasis across the country, hundreds of hospitalizations and two deaths. But the fortunate thing is the Taylor Farms company that's distributing this letter has recalled their letters from Central Mexico where these cases many of them have originated from. And so we have many questions for the health officials in this nation and yesterday at its event on eating real food.

We pressed them. We tried to get answers from them, but the secretary dodged our questions. So we will continue to keep asking those questions. All right. Arthur, great stuff, as always. Have a good day, my friend. Thank you so much. A couple of quick follow-ups there on the vaccines with your kids. Just ask your doctor, your pediatrician. I went to my pediatrician deep into my college years. in Connecticut. Like I was... We just didn't want to switch over to another doctor. Well, in college, it's weird because you're not really living any one place. He was like, you got to get an adult doctor now. Yeah. You got to move on. So anyway, when it comes to vaccines, just ask your pediatrician what you should do, what you shouldn't do. When it comes to the lettuce there, I didn't really realize. how the cyclospora and the lettuce outbreak has impacted me. So I went to the Braves game last night. I posted the pictures. I had a fantastic time. Braves lost, which was awful, but I rarely go out on a school night, but I did. And I posted the pictures up on my Instagram account at Mark Aram, M-A-R-K-A-R-U-M, saw a bunch of coworkers, right into some random friends, met some. It was, it was phenomenal. But I go to, I went to the X-Finity Club, which I'd never been. before. Fancy. Well, it's fancy-ish. It was lovely. I'm not saying, but it's not like the all-you-can-eat-seats where it's, oh, sorry. Yeah, no, it's fine, which is, but so I went to, like, the burger and hot dog kiosk in the Xfinity Club, and I got the burger basket combo. It was like a double cheese burger with fries. And the lovely lady helping, she's like, do you want everything on the burger? And I said, what are my options? And she goes, lettuce, tomato, mayo, onions. And I was like, no lettuce. Normally I would get lettuce on the burger. I'm like, just tomatoes? I'm trying to think. I'm like, yeah, just cheese and tomatoes. Skip everything else, just to be safe. And then it occurred to me. Per annum, that means by the year, Vinnie. 80 to 85% of my lettuce consumption comes via a burger. You're not a big salad guy. Well, I do, like when Maya, when Maya cooks dinner, she makes a salad. When we go out to dinner, we'll split a salad. So, I mean, I eat salads when the situation dictates. I don't seek out salads. And I would say 80% to 85% of my lettuce consumption per year comes on burgers or club sandwiches. I was going to say other sandwiches. Yeah. Like when I go to Publix, we're shopping is a pleasure. I get the ultimate turkey, lettuce, tomato, mayo, banana peppers. And I'm like, what I got to? I'm going to have. But now I can't. I'm like, I can't eat more. No, I can't eat more salads. My lettuce consumption is going to be, it's going to be near nil now. If I'm not getting lettuce on burgers or lettuce on pub subs, now, granted, it's usually the iceberg, which doesn't give you much in the way of. You should be, you should be. I've eaten a salad every day since cyclospora. I've been okay. Yeah, Caesar. Caesar, I like a good Caesar salad. I like a good, you know who has the best, not best. One of my favorite salads is that Outback Steakhouse.

The chicken one? No, it's just a regular side salad, but they throw croutons and cheat. Like, they make it very tasty and unhealthy. Shout out to the Outback salad. I think we're going out back soon, Vinny. Do not get the blooming onion this time. Anyway, yeah, so my lettuce consumption has fallen off a cliff. I'm still eating vegetables, broccoli and asparagus. I might make sure I get greens, but the salad, the lettuce has not been there. All right, Deborah, Conyers. Let's go to Conyers, one of our favorite haunts here in Metro Atlanta. All I know is the headline is that there are new alcohol rules in the city of Conyers. Now, in my mind, I'm like, Las Vegas or New Orleans, like open container. Is Conyers pushing an open container law? Unfortunately not. I wasn't sure exactly what this was either until I read the rest of the stories. But the Conyers City Council is trying to change an ordinance that would basically extend the hours of when you can buy alcohol on the weekend. So you would be able to purchase and consume alcohol starting. 7 a.m. Saturday morning all the way till 3 a.m. the following Sunday. So the entire Saturday, which is kind of a big deal because Saturday is all about football and you want to pack up and go. So that's at restaurants and bars or oh. So you can go get a bloody Mary at 7 a.m. As long as the restaurant serves it. Care of the dog. There's a lot of places back home. You can get alcohol at 7 a.m. So down here that you couldn't get it till noon was always weird. I grew up in the weirdest state when it came to Blue Laws. It was Connecticut. It was 8 p.m. Am I even being earlier? Might have been 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, nothing sold on Sundays. It was like puritanical. Like the Pilgrims came up with this, the blue laws in Connecticut. So we'd have to go, if it was after 7 or 8 p.m., you'd have to drive 20 minutes over to the New York border. And then go to the packet store. Like we were talking about driving to New Hampshire. Yeah. Or the fireworks. Yeah. Like, and we, you know, like do rock paper citizens. Like, all right, who's driving to amenia in New York to get the, to get the beer bong? And that was, yeah. It's the opposite in Wisconsin. You can pretty much get it anytime, anywhere. You can get it at the dorm as we found out yesterday. On your swipe card. All right. So, all right, good for the folks in Conyers, I guess. I'm not a teetotaler. You enjoy. Just enjoy. safely don't get behind the wheel of the car if you want to start tipping them back at seven in the morning on a Sunday which is a tailgating on college football games is all I'm saying yeah speaking of I guess you know what pumpkin spices back are there pumpkin spice Like bottled cocktails or liquor? Oh, there are. Yeah, there's pumpkin spice cocktails. Yeah. Pumpkin spice has returned and it's only August 11th. Yeah, well, it'll officially hit the Panera anyway on August 19. So they got the pumpkin spice. Panera. Yeah, pumpkin spice ice coffee and their spice frozen Java. They'll also be having a pumpkin cookie and shortbread. What about? You're into the PSLs. Christine Edwards is a big PSL girl. She is the queen of the pumpkin spice. So I'm sure she's got. When's the Starbucks one hit? I don't know. I'll do one. I'll do one a.

a season? Yeah, one every autumn. I'll dip my toes in the pumpkin spice. I'm sure Chrissy's got a breakdown of who's got it where everywhere on her insta. You want to find out where the first pumpkin spice of the season hits. And there's zero pumpkin in it, which is crazy to me. Zero. That's like false advertising. We need to do a class action lawsuit. Yeah. Pumpkin spice. There's no pumpkin spice in a pumpkin spice latte. Those that are in the know also know. This is the theme song to the greatest television show of all time. I will die on this hill. This is the Deadwood theme song, HBO show. Anna Gunn played Martha Bullock on Deadwood. Turns 58 years old today. Listen to Anna Gunn. She was in three of my favorite television shows of all time. She was in Deadwood. She was Skyler White and Breaking Bad. And she was Amy on Seinfeld. She one episode of Seinfeld. Wow. She was one of the Seinfeld girlfriends. Anyway, happy birthday. And a gun. Deadwood. Highly recommend 10 out of 10. I'll tell you what's gaining steam is freaking lioness though. Oh my gosh. The start of every episode is so distressing. You and I were watching the same episode. You were like three minutes ahead of me because you text me as soon as you. I had three minutes left in the episode. Oh, my. Give, I mean, just already give them all the Emmys, all the awards. Yeah, it's such a good show. It's insane how good. And Michael Kelly, our buddy. Oh, that was an amazing scene, too. Yeah, very, it's creeping up. Dead was still number one to me, but with a long runway to go, Lioness has a chance to really explode. Congrats to James from. Noonan James won a pair of tickets to see Blackberry Smoke, courtesy of the Mark Aram Show at 95-5 WSB. Coming up after news weather and traffic, Deborah's got a pair of tickets to go away. This came out of nowhere. This is a surprise prize pack. Yeah, this came just this morning, but Sugar Land going to be at Gas Out of the Arena in November, and these tickets aren't even on sale of the public yet, but we will get them to you. Sugarland. On this date, we talked last week at length about the Hollywood Walk fame on this date in 1999. Kiss got a star on the Hollywood. Walk of Fame. That seems late, A. There's this pushback against Kiss because Gene Simmons can be a bit of a pill sometimes. Yeah, but so can a lot of these people. Yeah, but Gene Simmons really. Listen, Gene Simmons wouldn't come on the Mark Aram Show and swear twice that Vinnie had. I can tell you some things that Gene Simmons has done on the air. Really? All right. I know of Kiss. I never was in, you know, they were big in my town, but I never got. You weren't part of the Kiss Army. No, I wasn't. I think I was maybe a little too young to enjoy the Kiss Army. Like mid-70s, right? Yeah, I think 70s, yeah. Anyway, good stuff there. All right, Deborah's got the tickets. We're going to get the latest. Some big local stories we've yet to cover. New Data Center. data to pass along to you. I know it sounds boring, but it's not. It's an untapped revenue potential for you listening. And expect to see your trash and recycling bills rise. We'll explain why next on the Mark Amher show.

1137 on this Friday. Friday, I wish. That's what happens when I go on a school night. It's a Tuesday edition of the Mark Aram show. Friday is within sight, though, friends. Before we get to our top local stories, Deborah, we have another prize pack today. Win them before you can buy them tickets to see Sugar Land at GasSouth Arena, November 7th. Tickets go on sale at Ticketmaster.com Friday at 10 a.m. Since Vincenzo is Vinny Drip down South Vinny, Vinny Booboo, is a little under the weather still from his birthday celebration.

When's a pair of tickets to see Sugar Land, courtesy the Mark Am Show and 95-5 WSP, win them before you can buy them. All right, before we get to this local story, Deborah, this is crazy if true. There might be a cancer-preventing chewy gum that scientists are working on. Scientists are developing one, I guess. So one of the most aggressive forms of cancer is like head and neck cancer, and a lot of people don't necessarily get them checked out. People aren't really great about taking care of their gums and teeth so much. You kind of write it all off together. But apparently they're saying it's really aggressive. So now scientists are working on this gum that can kind of help protect, not a vaccine, but just a way to maybe detect, like, if you have that early stage. kind of stop it from getting even more. And the way they're making it into a gum is because they're saying it's just the easiest way for people. Like, you know, how great would it be if to just pop a piece of gum and know you're not going to get any worse off than you already are? So it's preventative as opposed to like curing. Right. Okay. But that's still that's... Still, right? That's way easier than other forms of... That's huge. Yeah. I'm thinking about all my baseball player friends that chew tobacco. Yuck. I did. Yeah, it was the thing. And then when I got to college, my freshman year, the NCAA bandit. And I would assume he just wouldn't get a date because of that. Just stop. Well, I wasn't getting dates anyway. So that wasn't a... a hurdle but uh yeah and and you know baseball players professionals would do PSA is like hey I used to chew tobacco but I quit because they got the big buckets of gum right now that's right yeah and sunflower seeds and big league chew I don't know why there's no other sport where there's that oral fixation like you don't see Michael Jim Jordan with a a cheek full of sunflower seeds dribbling down the court yeah yeah there's a lot of downtime in baseball you're on the bench you're chewing the seeds anyway that would if true that would be fantastic to prevent those oral cancers all right this is this is a story uh is this is a city of atlanta folks when it comes to trash and recycling yes so if you live in the suburbs not affecting you but if you are a city of atlanta resident expect your trash and recycling bills to rise i guess the questions i have debor is why and how much are we

looking at here. Yeah, if Atlanta is the actual city you live in, not metro, but Atlanta, expect those recycling bills to go up about 23% because we have a $53 million solid waste deficit. And the public works department needs to figure out what to do with that. So obviously a fee hike is the easiest thing they can do. Part of that will replace some of the old trucks. That takes up a lot of energy costs. They just not very efficient. So that'll take up most of the budget. But they're doing a public hearing to see if City Hall will even propose this. So it would be about $4 a year, which doesn't seem like a lot. It's not. It doesn't seem like. It doesn't. But, you know, when you're in a locked in budget and everything else is more expensive, dollar here, dollar there kind of chips away. I think we take for granted. Trash collection? Yes, I really, really do. We talk about, oh, while I'm talking about this, get the older tech that Americans miss story. We are blessed in many ways in life. And I think one of the most overlooked aspects of life in modern America is trash collection. Like you just put trash out once a week and some people twice a week. And it's just picked up and you never have to worry about it again. There's a large portion of the world that has to find places for their trash. Take it themselves. Yeah. Look at your experience in Peru. You can't flush toilet paper down the toilet. You have to put it in the chair. I had a flashback there. Thank you, Debra. But even in Japan. Japan, I mean, Japan is like 100 years in front of everybody. This should scare you because you have to, here in the United States, I don't know if you recycle or not, Deborah. Yeah. Yeah, I love to recycle. And, you know, DeKalb County, you have a recycling ban, you pick it up, but, but in Japan, they take recycling to the next level. where there's like, instead of one recycling bin, there's like eight different. Oh, paper, glass, box or something. Yeah, like, you separate it. And that's the one thing. Mine is like, you sure you want to live in Japan? Like, it takes a long time to. And that's a good habit to have, right? Absolutely. You're going to retire there. What else are you going to do? Yeah. But, yeah, let's, even if your day's going horribly, you didn't just win the tickets to see Sugar Land. You think nothing goes your way. Just go, ha, but we have trash collection here in the United States. That's a good thing. Let's be thankful for what we have, not for what we, not envious of what we don't have. All right, Deborah, all right, so four bucks a year. I think most people will. To keep the trash running, yes. Did you see stories like sometimes in New York where they go on strike and it's just all over the curbs, right? Yeah, absolutely. I've lived through those, the garbage strikes. It's not fun. Okay, did you pull that older tech? Yeah, I got it. So I haven't even read the story because I like to be surprised like the listeners. And I miss a lot of things. I'm very nostalgic about my childhood and young adulthood. But I can't, I couldn't think of a single piece of old technology.

That I miss. Like I love the technological advances we've seen in the last 30, 40 years that I couldn't think of one thing like, oh, it would be great to have that again. Hmm. Yeah, so this is a list of technology that people are happy they don't have to deal with anymore. Oh, okay. Kind of the same. Like you don't miss it, right? Like, yeah, I don't have to deal with it anymore. But I thought these were things that we did miss. No. No. All right. Yeah, glad to be rid of. So some of the things on there are something as simple as a DVD player, right? You could just dial, pull up everything on your camera, your phone, whatever. It's right there. You don't have to insert a disc, let it load. I do miss CD players. So we're at our listener lunch on Saturday. And our generous listeners sometimes bring me gifts. And this couple brought me two old school hip-hop CDs. Oh, yeah. I saw that. Yeah. And I'm like, shoot. I don't have a CD. Even in your car? If I do have one of my car with my car in its current state, I don't know if it works. Maybe I do. Well, I have a whole sound system, so I still have my single player. All right, so that might be the one thing because I was like, oh, my God, he explains like what was on. I was like, these are, I want to listen to these, but I have no. vehicle or mechanism to listen to these CDs. So a lot of things that go along with that, too, a digital camcorder, because now you probably use your phone, a VCR and cassette tapes. Even your iPod, I loved my iPod, right? Because I didn't have to worry about alerts or phones. I had one, but I never used it. I loved my iPod. How about a landline? Do you ever miss your landline? No, no. Pay phones. Sometimes you could use a pay phone. No, I can't. I could not use a pay. What was, oh, I was watching one of the TV shows the other day that was set in the early 90s and the guy was calling his life. Using a pay phone? Yeah. I was like, oh, pay phone. Have you ever used a pay phone, Vin? No. I never used a pay phone. I think they were probably gone by the time. Not a chance. But they don't lose reception, do they? They do not lose reception. That's what I want to lose it. All in one spot. You can't move. That reporter from News Nation. I'll have her call next time on a pay phone. Yeah. Dial up internet service floppy disks. Oh, here's one that you might have had, pager or beeper. Yeah. Never had that. I had a work pager here. Did you? Did you? I did miss that. Fax machine. Oh, fax machines were the worst. We still have fax machines here. PDF files now. Why are you doing fax machine? Some people are old school, Deborah. Some people are old school. All right. The one thing I will say I miss is the CD player. I like the iPod. Loved my iPod. Scrolling with you. You can get a CD player at Walmart Target for like 20 bucks. Okay. What if I just give you the CDs, the old hip-hop CDs and you can burn them? Yeah. Burn them to what? I don't know. An MP3? I don't have that connection on there. All right. Silent footsteps.

If memory serves, this is Debra's favorite Canadian band of all time? All time. All time. My memory still works sometimes. That's the guess who. Celebrating their 83rd birthday, former bassist for the Guess Who, Jim Cale. We gave away tickets to them not long ago. Yeah, they played at Chastain. Chastain. Do you see Chastain? They went late on their concert. They went late. What a treat for you. Yeah. Because of Thunder and Lightning or whatever, and the neighbors got kicked off. For a Guess Who concert? Come on. I don't know. Well, don't live near a concert venue. It was the Guess Who. You should be honored. The greatest Canadian band of all time, according to some. All right. Through the years, language is very intriguing through the year. years. Do you think about words that were popular in the 50s or 70s, 80s, all the way up to, I sound like B98, 80s, 90s, all the way to it. Yeah. So there's a Gen Z now throwing out a new insult and you might not catch it as an insult. So we want to educate you. We'll fact check this with Vinny Drip down south Vinny, Vinny, Vinny Boobu. What is the new Gen Z insult, Deborah? Okay, you heard the term larping before? Nope. Okay. So technically, it used to refer to live action role playing. So maybe you would see people kind of dress up in costumes and pretend sword fight in a park or something like that. Like Fluffies? Not furries. Okay. Furries. Yeah, not furries. That's a different type of larping. But that's what larping is, live action role-playing. So now Gen Z has kind of taken that word, and they're calling it out for inauthentic. So they're basically calling you a larper if, say you decided to go to the gym with Maya one day, right? And you post a picture of, like, just your feet. Stolen valor. Yes, pretending that you're really into something when you're not just for, that's just for, that's what they're calling a larper. Yeah. Inauthentic. The two biggest insults when I was a kid, you can't say anymore. Oh, the R word? The R word and the G word. Like that was. Oh, yeah. Those were really, yeah, that was, you know, every fourth word. Yeah, they were in every TV show too. Yeah, it was. It was ever in, you know. Yep. Language is very interesting. What was the J.B. Smooth line in Kirby's Enthusiasm, where he said to Larry David... Not flipping on them. It was like larping, but like you're... I forgot what it was. Hamping? No. Something like that. It was an I-N-G word that Larry had never heard of. I'll have to go back and rewatch it. Yeah, we'll find it. Anyway, this is ironic. So I made an AI generated picture for the social media today of a flight attendant pushing a food cart down Air Force One. And on the cart was a seven-up can. I can't remember the last time AI had a seven-up or even seen a seven-up anywhere. The former rival to Sprite, Seven-Up doing a makeover trying to get back on the...

Yeah, well, we have Sprite here because of Coca-Cola and they're part of the same company. So we always see Sprite down here. But some of them has decided to do kind of a rebamp. You know, we know them as a lemon-lime soda. Not anymore. Now they're going to be a lime forward tasting soda. So they're going to change the can a little bit. Really just adjust the orientation of the logo. And then it will say. lime lemon flavored on it. And they're basically saying, you know, citrus flavors are in high demand. So it just kind of needs a rebrand. So apparently the United States distribution is controlled by Kierig Dr. Pepper as part of it. For seven up. Yeah. I can't remember. Seagram 7 and 7. That was probably the last time I had a 7 up. And it was probably made with Sprite anyway. That's a refreshing summer drink. Seagram 7 and 7. But only if you're of age, kids. Or in time. Now you know, because of the Mark Aram Show. Yeah. President Trump used the old Air Force one as a decoy to get into this catering truck and then take a totally separate unmarked plane during one of his refueling stops after the NATO summit gets shedding light on both the threats against the president and the length that the Secret Service is going to ensure his safety. Tyler Kendall joined us live from the North Lawn of the White House going in depth on the crazy switcher-roo cloak and dagger story with President Trump in the Air Force. Force One. Great stuff there from Tyler Kendall. Now you know. I have worked there once. I think I was there for like, yeah, just a blip. But I had a great time. I had a fried calzone there once and I really associated that point. That's Kristen Stewart from the. trilogy movies, the Twilight movies. She joined, swore on the air. Vinnie bleeped it out, though, but it was nice to talk to Kristen Stewart. Now, you know... We needed a lot of help this spring, and we had a lot of folks from all over the country that came and helped us out, including some from Oregon and Washington, and now we're able to return the favor. Great stuff from Cheese Thomas Bear talking about all the Georgia firefighters that have had out to the Pacific Northwest to fight those blazes there. Can we squeeze in some breaking news before Star of the show? This is off the Piccadilly text line, Deborah, from former intern Stefan. Lamping. That's the word. J.B. Smooth. Oh, that's it. Yeah, Lamping. Wow, good job. Intern Stefan. How are you, brother? Relax and Max it. Lamping. And now are you guys ready for the show? Good job, Stefan. Thanks for listening, buddy.

Is he unemployed? Is that why he's listening to the show? No, no, no. He's got a good job. All right. We texted about World Cup. Oh, he's probably out on his high-paying job. Lunch break. We were back in World Cup about stuff. So he's doing okay. All right. So Stefan, good job. Former Interest Stefan. Speaking of Howes, Smile Mark McKay came in on the breaking news that House Steakhouse can open a midtown location. Vinnie working four jobs there, screening your calls, dropping two swear words from celebrity actresses. And his duties on the other side of the takeout window. And he's still recovering from his birthday celebration. So good job, Vinny. And I'm going to give one to, oh, Chief Thomas Amy Coney Barrett from the Forestry Department. And Tyler Kendall. She was really good. Really good. All right. Tomorrow, Stephen Lawson. In studio, we'll get reaction to the primaries that are taking place in six states today.
