This is Dispatches from Myrtle Beach with Charles Neal and my son Link from Good Mythical Morning. How you doing son? Ooh, doing good, dad. Good to see you. I’m telling you, it’s been what been about three or four weeks since I gotta see that good looking face of yours. It’s been a long time. Every time that you don’t see me, it is time that you need to see me. Just, you know, here it is. Look at that face. Yeah. I’m telling you. Yeah. Your face is looking good too. Well, thank you. Yeah. Yeah. You, you got your hair slicked back. Got it cut. I think, did I have it cut last time? No, I don’t think so. Yeah, I got a, I got about a foot cut off of it. I think a foot, that’s enough to, that’s enough to donate. You do locks of love. Yeah. Yeah. I could give them lots of love, but I don’t believe my hair locks, locks, like hair locks, lots of love. Oh, okay. That’s what, that’s what, you know, like they’ll turn, they’ll turn it into a wig for somebody who’s going through chemo or something. Yeah. Nancy knows all about that. And you know, she works for that lady, that sales wigs and she’s got some of ’em. Of course she don’t need one because she’s now, but uh, she, you know, but did she, she’s worked. Did, well you’re talking about Nancy at one point. Did she ever need a wig? No, you are not. You’re talking about her friend. No, I’m talking about my, Nancy has been working for a lady that sells wigs and she’s been helping her and she was helping her so she could get a, the wig for half price and if she worked enough, she got some for free. So we got three back there in the room and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen her where one of ’em yet. I’m confused. It. So she’s waiting to, to, to get chemo or No, she just, she just wanted a wig. It’s just for the style of it. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Alright, good. Now I can ask some follow up questions. Have you ever worn any of these wigs? Um, you know, I hadn’t thought about that, but maybe I ought to start wearing one. Somebody needs to wear these wigs, dad. I’m telling. So these are like high fidelity. They’re half human hair and half synthetic, so they’re really nice wigs. All right. About half as nice as a full human wig, but twice as nice as a, a completely synthetic wig. Oh, twice is nice. Yeah, they’re nice. I’m telling you. They look good. Yeah. So you’re telling me. That Nancy Nana, mm-hmm. Started working for a lady just for the wig discount, which she then got on three wigs and she’s never worn them. That would be correct. And what were you supportive of this endeavor or? It was, you know, well, I thought she was going get ’em and we were going to go out dancing or something. She was gonna wear one of ’em, so yeah, they think I was with a different woman, so, and okay. Well are they, is it like totally different than her hair? Is it like a platinum blonde? One of ’em is pretty blonde and. One of ’em, blonde, it’s brownish and I can’t even remember what the other one is. This one of ’em is kind of short, the light right here and two of ’em long down the, like, the back of your back. So, I don’t know how we got on this. It’s so interesting to me. I mean, I’m, I’m just intrigued by this because I understand the appeal. You slick your hair back and then you put on a wig and it looks nice, and then you take it, you know, it’s like if you could put on a hat that looked like hair. Yeah, I guess that’s what a wig is. A wig is a hat that looks like hair. Okay. This is how I, this. This is how I think about things, dad. I mean, sometimes I just mean in terms of the convenience. Oh yeah. Of wearing, like if your hair’s messed up, sometimes I’ll put on a hat. I was like, well, I gotta go out. I gotta go do a little, do a little something out in the world. I’m just gonna put a hat on instead of, ’cause this, I don’t know. But news newsflash, this cof here. Takes a a bit of work. A bit of work, yeah. It takes a bit of investment. And if I, I just throw on a hat, but what if I had this, I could just throw on at like, it was a hat, but it was hair. I’m telling you, that would be a wig. That would be a wig. And I don’t tell you. You, you could probably do that. I don’t. I don’t, yeah. What’s stopping me? So now, now we are probably, you and Logan will have to call Nana and Nancy and say we’re gonna do an episode with you changing wigs. Mm-hmm. Yep. That’s my idea. Or at least you wear ’em. I need to see these wigs on somebody. Okay. So I’ll have to, Hey, I’ll put, I’m gonna put it back on before, before I put one on my big head mess. One up. I gotta ask permission. Was she making the wigs or just doing other stuff for the Lake Uhuh? Just doing, helping her with people that have chemo and don’t have any hair and they come in and buy wigs and she was helping her, uh, sell the wigs to ’em and the lady said she did a great job. So that’s what she was doing. That’s what she was doing. Alright. And she got what she wanted, but apparently she wasn’t ready for it. I. I ain’t, I’m not going there. Yeah, that’s true. Yeah, that’s true. So link, let me, I think we, I, I might’ve told you this, but you know, I took Nancy to the Brooks and Dunn concert in Raleigh at the leave. Oh, center? Yeah. The what center? You talking about Walnut Creek? No, it is at the, the what? NC State, what did you call it? It’s called Le Oh Cent Le oh, LEVI. Oh, you talking about Lenovo? Lenovo, yeah. They make, they make computers. Dad. Oh, so we, I, I, I, I justno did a word pronunciation, didn’t even know I was doing it. And you had to correct me. There you go. Well, that’s how it normally goes. It’s just more to say. Okay. But when we went, we went to that, but before we went, we went with Candace and Brandy and we went out to eat to a restaurant called The Meal. And when I walked in and sat down, it was like a cubby of quail come out. Oh. And surrounded our table. And uh, Kelsey, Taylor, Emily and Kara all came up and wanted a picture with me because they knew who I was. So, and did they say hey to me? No. What? Okay. Well, alright. Yes. Uh, I gotta figure, let’s see. Uh, Taylor said to tell you, Hey, because she went to Hornick Central High School. Okay. Where you went to school. That’s right. And she knew you and her mom went there too. Okay. And made it been so she said to tell you Hello too. Only one of them, they were said hello to me. Were all just excited to see you. See me. I get it. Now is the mill, is it that place that has a view of downtown when you’re eating there? Mm, this wasn’t, wasn’t far from the The leave. Oh, center. Okay. E nnc State. Campus. There’s another one that’s downtown 11 like that. There’s a couple of those restaurants there. Okay. Alright. So I’m just giving them all a holler out and then when, well, lemme, I went out to, oh, go ahead. Go ahead. Wait a minute. And then I went out to eat last night, me and Nancy for our little birthday club. I sat down and I was sitting there and a young couple came in. Cubby, A coil? Yeah. No, just a young couple. And, uh. Kaylee and Johnny Jackson, and they kept looking at me and I just got up and went. I said, do you know who I am? Don’t you? And the girl’s hands was just as shaking. She said, I cannot believe that I finally have got to meet you. And you said you gave ’em the, you know who, do you know who I am? Line? Yeah. Do. Mm-hmm. You got up, you walked up to him. Yep. And they, they said, yes, we watch your podcast all the time and we love Link too. Okay. And it’s almost a hello to me. And then, then she, you know, and then they said, I got to have a picture. We just, I took a picture and then before I got up, she said, well, well wait a minute. Can I get you autographs? So I signed the autograph, my autograph on, on the napkin floor. So it’s a bit much, dad getting a lot like you, you gotta, no, I don’t, I don’t sign napkins. Dad. See, I don’t, I don’t sign napkins. That’s all they had. I mean, you sign much, you get, you gotta leave them wanting more. I. You know, if you give ’em everything they need, they’ll be wiping their mouth with it. Oh no. They put, she put this up in a, in her pocketbook where she could carry it on. Yeah. And then what, she’s gonna have a, she’s gonna be chewing some gum. She’s gonna be in a place where there’s no, they’re gonna have fabric napkins and you’re not gonna know where to put her gum. And, and that’s when she’s gonna be like, oh, I remember. And she’ll get out a napkin and she’ll put that gum right there where you signed it. Okay. That’s fine. We gotta stay grounded. Dad, we gotta stay grounded. Our heads can’t get too big. Yeah, you, you need to, next time you sign an applicant, put a circle in the middle and then sign around. And when you hand it and say, whenever you need to get rid of some gum, put it right there in the middle. Okay. All right. And then the link, we got just all you Myrtle Beast out there. Remember we got the OD Music Fest Festival coming up, uh, may the third. So may the third. If you need a ticket, look it up and get one. Come see me. I’ll be there in a booth with, with a tent from Dispatches from Myrtle Beach with the California Honey drops Jim Quick and, and the, the Rock Band of Oz. Dwayne, Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Yeah. Is he gonna be there? I don’t think so. Okay. Alright. Can I ask you about Brooks and Dun for a second? Sure. Because you know I got a sweet, sweet little spot in, in, in my soul for Brooks and Dun. First time I, I saw them was probably 1995. I put the license plate on the front of my pickup. Always been a fan of Kicks. And Ronnie, how did they do? They did a great job. I mean, and I looked up to see Ronnie, Ronnie Duns, just a year younger than I am. Oh, so he’s 71. And. You’re trying to figure out how old he was. Kick and kicks is 69, so Ha. They’re doing. Kick. Uh, but he told Ronnie would sing a song and he, he, he’d tell the audience, he said, I can’t sing that high note as well as I used to, so y’all gotta help me out. And boy, we’d help him sing it. A man the slowly, yep. A man. Slowly. So. But Neon Moon. Yeah, that was one that sang. They sang. He’s great, man. I believe they sang every one of their hits. Every single one. They sang for two hours and about 15 minutes. What about this one? I’m starting with the man in the mirror that I’m asking him to change his ways. Did he sing that? Yes, he did. No, we didn’t. That’s Michael Jackson. Oh, it is? Yeah. I was, I was messing with you, dad. Oh, well you gotta quit that. What’s new? What’s new? Uh, I don’t know. I don’t know what is new. So what’s new with you? Well, well, well, um, Christie got the covid. Hmm. I told you a little bit about that. You might have heard through the grapevine. Um, she was like, is this, is this positive? I think I have covid. People don’t even test anymore. Dad. People don’t even care. It’s just like, it’s just another day in the world. It could be allergies. Yeah. It’s amazing how things are different, but she Oh yeah. Of course. She still tests, which is good. And it was the faintest of faintest of lines. And I was like, listen, you’re, you are just looking at the, the lurking positives that could be there if. It, it, it needs to be able to be positive for somebody who is, but you’re not. It’s, it’s you, you’re like looking through the test and seeing the, the, the line on the backside of the something and I’m not, and she was like, well, it’s, it’s there though. There’s a faint positive. And I was like, give me another test. Let me look at it and I guarantee you just out of the box, it looks just like this. And, and she was like, well, here’s another one. And I was like, this one’s, this one’s the exact same. She’s like, I know I took that one too. She taking two covid tests and then I’m like, well, give me a third. Give me an unused test, one that you haven’t peed on yet, or whatever you do. I don’t think you peed on what? I wasn’t watching her do it, dad. I don’t know how she does it. And she said, I don’t that thing up your nose. Ah, okay. So then she was like, well, I don’t, I don’t have another one. I’ve, I’ve, I’ve used them all. I was like, well, how often do you use these things? You get up every morning and you use one. We didn’t have. So I’m convinced that it’s, it looked the way that it looked out of the box. Now, she was sick. I’m not saying she wasn’t sick, but that was the weakest positive line I’ve ever seen. You know, if, if she was, if, if this was a pregnancy test, she’d be pregnant with the idea of pregnancy. That’s hoping. Yeah. Hoping y’all were going to do something and she would get pregnant. Yeah. It, it was, it was like, I’m, I’m pregnant with the idea of being pregnant is what that would signify. She is thinking, she was thinking about maybe what it would be like to get Covid and she had a headache. She had a little bit of a sore throat. She laid around an awful lot. I am gonna say that. She laid around a lot. I, I did a, I did so much around the house. I did. I took the trash out. You can’t even remember what you did. Anyway. A whole lot. She’s feeling better. She’s feeling better. Yeah. Yeah. So that’s most new with us. She’s feeling better. I’m still doing good. I had a headache. I got a headache a couple times. I thought I might I be, I might have been getting pregnant with a little bit of covid. Yeah, but you know what I did? Yeah. I just drank more caffeine. I. I just blasted it with caffeine. Killed it. I killed it. So you’ve been to Seattle? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. We went to the three of us, went to Seattle before anybody got kind of sick. Had a faint line of Covid. Um, yeah, we did. You know, it’s, it’s becoming our thing. Me and Lando, we go record shopping. We, and we roped Christie into it and she’s buy, she’s buying some Madonna. She’s buying some Dolly Parton. She’s buying some, no doubt. She’s in there buying records. Billie Eilish. You like Billy Eilish? I, I, I don’t know. She’s the best. You should start with lunch. That’s the one you need to listen to first, okay? Mm-hmm. Write that down. Uh. Can you remember that next time you get Yeah. Next time you get hungry in the middle of the day and it’s, and just what? What meal are you going to eat? Lunch. Yep. Let me ask you that again ’cause it did take you a while. If you’re hungry and it’s the middle of the day, what’s the name of that song I need to listen to from be Lee Eilish? Are you serious? Yeah. It’s lunch, dad. That’s what I’m talking about. Oh, name of the song is lunch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m trying to get you, oh my God. I was trying to get you to remit. That’s how you gonna remember it. I’m sitting here telling you the song. You’re like, what’s the name of the song though? It’s the meal. When you get hungry in the middle of the day, what meal do you eat? Lch. Mm-hmm. That’s how you’re gonna remember it. So Billie Eilish sings a song named lunch. Yeah, it’s, it’s good. She couldn’t think of a better name than that. I think it’s perfect. Okay. Alright. It’s perfect. I’ll listen to it, uh, on that little thing that Nancy’s got to send yonder. Where you say play this song for me? You talking about a jukebox? No. You got Alexa. Yeah, Alexa. That’s what it is. I say, Alexa, play me some Billie Isles. Pay me lunch from Bill Eilish. And now anyone who’s listening in a room, their Alexa just played it for them, which is good. Okay. Um, yeah, we had a great time in Seattle, also really good food. And, um, you know, uh, it pays to talk to people. We had a very loose schedule. We didn’t have any appointments or any reservations for too much. And we went in this shop after going in so many record shops that I promised Christie we weren’t gonna go on another one. We went into a clothing shop, and then the guy was so nice in there and he was like, what are you guys doing? It’s a beautiful day. And we’re like, we’re just walking down the street. And he was like, well, if you keep walking all the way, it’ll get to the waterfront. And you, it’s a little far and you might want to take a, a lift down there, but, uh, you’re staying in downtown, huh? And he said, yeah. And he said, well, you can get on a water taxi for a couple of bucks and then go across the, go across the bay. I. Back into downtown Uhhuh instead of going all the way around. And that’s, and then we went down to the place he said they were, they were serving like Hawaiian slider sandwiches and beer and drinks. And we had a, we had a nice little alfresco moment. And then we get, yeah, and then we got on the water taxi and it was just. Sometimes a spur of a moment, just kind of go with the flow, kind of, kind of trip is the, is the best thing. We had the best time. Mythical 24 7 is available to stream on Samsung tv.

Oh gosh. Okay. Lemme put up, lemme sit up straight. Hold on. A Lemme get my posture. Lemme get my posture right. Oh my goodness. Hey darling. Hey, can, you can hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. Look at you. You are handsome as ever. You’re my first grandchild. Let me give you, let me give you the profile. How’s that is good too. How about this? How about this side? Which, which side is my good side, Nana? And you don’t want to tell me this side. They’re all good. Uhhuh. You heard it from, you heard it from the source right here. You look fabulous. I love your hair now. It’s beautiful. It’s beautiful. I would call it, I’ve enjoyed it. Platinum. What your hair? Platinum. The color of your hair. It’s platinum. I, well, something in between or whatever In between or whatever. Well, you know, when they. The, the, the one of the biggest honors that a musician has is when their record goes platinum, that means a million sold. And that’s what you are, you’re like a million sold. How long have you been staying there? Two and a half weeks. Oh, wow. I would expect, I would expect you to look more worn down, Nana. They’ve, let me just read, half of Nanny says books that she’s waiting until she gets time to read them. You’ve l you’ve been there for over two weeks. Yeah, that’s the, isn’t that the longest you stayed with dad since he moved out? Yes. Oh man, its God, you can tell me. He’s a bit much, isn’t he? We’ve had a good time. Oh. Hadn’t done a whole lot, but they’ve let me read all I’ve wanted to. Okay. Fall asleep in the chair when she wants to. Have you been on the golf cart? No. Take care. On the golf cart. Dad, come on. She can’t, you be hard for her to get on it. All right, fine. Well, hold on. Leave her in the, leave her in the chair that she’s in. Is it a windshield? I just pull her up and down the road. Yeah, just hit, just hit her to the back. You want me to, you want to have her hip broke again? Do you? Well, she’s just gotta hang on, it’s like, it’s like water skiing. Hey, she won’t be, Hey, I remember when she tried to water ski too. That didn’t go too good either. So, uh oh. Face plant 60, 60 some years ago with. 10 life vest on, and it was three. Three life vests. I mean, I finally got up. Okay. So after she got up, she said, that’s it. I got up, put me back in the boat. Well, how, how is the, um, how’s the sleeping arrangements there? You’re not, you don’t have to sleep with them. You got your own bed, right? That’s right. Not like when I was little and I would sleep over with you and papa and I would be sleeping right in between the two of you. Uh, no. There was another bed, but I had to sleep right in between. Y’all just like my dog. Sleep with me now. You let your dog sleep with you, uh, every morning at, but some, anywhere between four and 6:00 AM Jasper will start, he’ll start making this noise, and he’s not in bed yet. He’s down in his own bed on the floor. He’ll start going, Hm. And it, it’s, it, I’m so attuned to it that it wakes me up. I should sleep right through it. Lord knows all the other noises I sleep through, but it, but she’s sick so she can’t help it. A little bit of snoring. Yeah. For sick. No, I’m talking about Christie. She’s, she’s got a little, I’m throwing her under the bus. Don’t tell Christie. Oh yeah. Don’t tell her. Listen, she was snoring a little bit. Well, listen, I thought I was gonna have to. Do all this bribing, because I told your nana yesterday, I said, you’re gonna be on the podcast tomorrow. And she said, no, I’m not. I’m not gonna be on the podcast. I am not. Why not? I’m not. Why did you say that? I thought. It is not my thing. Oh God. It is your thing. Everybody loves you. Everybody loves. That’s what I told her. I said, all the people from dispatching from Myrtle Beach, they love you being on the podcast. So, so what changed your mind? She wants to go back home tomorrow and wanted to make sure I carried it. I think that’s. I’m not sure about. I ain’t going to, I ain’t gonna take you back to back to TCS if you don’t, uh, get on this. Nana blink twice if you’re being held against your will act. Actually, let me, let me rephrase that. Dad, blink twice if you’re being held against your will. Oh my goodness. So, Nana, I know that there’s a, there’s something that you’ve asked me to think about. I did, and I know what the answer’s going to be. Hold on. You can’t, you can’t. That’s a classic nana right there. What is that supposed to mean? You asked me to think about something and, and I know what the answer’s gonna be. That’s, that’s manipulative. I. And she’s pretty good at that. That’s, you know what the answer should be. So let’s, we don’t have to get into specifics. We don’t. Oh, yeah. But what, what do you, well keep it, what do you think, what do you think he’s going to tell you to what he was going to say? No, I mean, what is he gonna be talking to you about? I’m not going to say that. He just said that. See, she’s listening. We, we we’re being vague about it so that we don’t have to, it, it doesn’t have to become public knowledge. But Nana has, she had an idea of something that she wanted me to do. Okay. And he could do it. And then I’m just saying it, I would think about it. And that’s all I said. And then all of a sudden she comes back and she says, well, and I know what the answer is. What you mean is, you know what the answer should be. I do. But the thing, the link, the, the reason I wanted to have Mama and your nana on the show was to get you out of the doghouse. Oh, why? Because now you had, now you hadn’t got to call her on the telephone. You get to see her and talk to her. Look, isn’t this so much better? And I, and don’t take this the wrong way, but how long is this good for? How long? Until I’m back in the doghouse? ’cause I’d love you and I would love to, I, I’m not good at talking. We should have our own show is what we should have. Nana, boy, we would talk every week. And that’s that kind of, that sounds a little sad, doesn’t it? It does. I’ll just call you. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Yeah, it’s Well, dad, listen. Dad called me dad ca. Dad left me a text a few days ago and you called me and I couldn’t get it and you left me a voicemail. Or was it a text and you said, call me when you get a chance, dad. Yeah. You don’t remember? Uh, okay, good. Well, you did that. I don’t And I didn’t call you back? No, because one day turned into the next, and then it turned into Today. Here we are talking. That’s right. Yeah. And you don’t even remember what you wanted to say. No, I done forgot. I. Yeah. Well, I got some stuff that, uh, I wanna say to you, but we can’t say to it. Oh. See, we’re not, we’re doubling up. We’re doubling up. Yeah. We gotta wait until later. Okay. Nana, the jury is still out. I’m just gonna, what, since we, what did I do? We’re gonna, I’m still you. Your proposition is being considered. Did y’all go in the needle? Uh, changing the subject. Oh, okay. That’s, did you go, did you go into needle it when you went to Seattle? No. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Link. I don’t care. I don’t care about no needle. I’ve been in the Empire State Building. I’ve been to, um, I’ve been to the Grand Canyon. I’m trying to think of what other tall building I’ve been in. I’ve been in my share of tall buildings. I met an agent once at the top of a Hollywood building. All the furniture was white, so I didn’t feel the need to go to the needle. I went around it. I saw it. I saw it from across the water taxi. I. I think once you get up there, it’s like, okay, yeah. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I don’t if, if that would’ve helped me spot more record shops for me and Lando to go shopping in, I would’ve, I would’ve gone up there. But Google Maps is kind of like going up into the needle, and then when you get up there to the top of the needle and you say, needle, show me all the record stores. In the area, and then it would be like red dots all on the ground below the needle. And so the, all the needle did was tell me where I point to where I needed to go, and I did that with the digital needle known as Google Maps. Why are you so disappointed that it didn’t go in a needle? Well, I, I thought every, that was one of the things that they went to see it is when they dizzy. Oh, but you know what we did do, and you will love this, Christie said, the only thing I wanna do is I want to go on the campus of, um, university of Washington. Yeah. Seattle, Washington. I’m right. And, um, the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Oh my. And they, first of all, the campus. Is the most beautiful campus I’ve ever seen. I thought where the link went was one of the prettiest. It has won awards, but. The thing about this place is that the trees are huge and the buildings are all different, but like there’s different types of architecture and some of it is like very castle, like what you would see on the Duke campus. Mm-hmm. But then it has the grounds and like the trees and stuff like you would see on Carolina’s campus, they didn’t have any brick. Like you would see on NC State’s campus. And so I gotta tell you, it was probably, it has to be one of the most beautiful campuses, and this is before you get into cherry blossoms because there’s only, there’s like one main drag through the middle of the campus, like a courtyard with the buildings on each side, and you can walk through. And in that particular area, they probably had. I don’t know, 12 to 20. I didn’t count. It’s just this whole area is nothing but these cherry blossoms, like what you would see in Japan or something, and or Washington dc, Washington State, Washington C and Japan. Yep. They a problem there. It was beautiful. It was beautiful. And the trees themselves, like there’d be a big trunk of the tree, like a huge trunk. And of course, all of the limbs are up at the top, and then all the blossoms are coming down. But if you walked up to the trunk, even down at the base, there would be cherry blossoms popping just out of the. Tree trunk, like not off of a limb. It was the, it was the craziest thing. That thing just wanted to bloom so bad that it was blooming everywhere. It’s like when your hair stops growing on your head and it starts growing in all other places. Like I think when I broke 40, I looked at my shoulder and I realized there was hair growing over there. Yeah. Like that’s what it was like. Well, yeah, you got that honest and not as much as you. Thank God I don’t have a hairy back. Yeah, that’s one of, that’s something I didn’t get from the Neils nana. Where did he get the Harry back from? Uh, well, the Neils had some too, had hair, but more than the mechanics. My mom’s, my mom’s folks, I, the mechanics didn’t have as much hair as the McNeils did. Okay. Your daddy had a head full of hair. Yeah, but he didn’t have a whole whole lot of hair on his back. Oh, okay. So he, like me, had hair in the right places. Link you and we RT went to, to your campus?

We have a speaker most of the time before lunch, and then when you have lunch, you just disperse. Yeah. Well, I’ve, I, I’ve done it. I’ve, I’ve, I’ve spoke at primetime.
