American flag yeah I thought about you I said you you you’re gonna have to make sure to get one like this so you can show off your new tattoo that you’re getting done yeah yeah I still got to get it filled in but um oh yeah yeah I gotta go I gotta go with the sleeveless I could do that okay and then the backdrop is is different oh and that’s what I wanted you know I told you Phyllis a couple weeks ago that we had a in your backdrop where we were sitting uh uh like I was sitting right on the beach here at North Myrtle Beach yeah but now I’m gonna move out the way and see now you can see the sunset oh that’s beautiful Dad look at that I see the sun’s the Sun is setting right into what looks like your closet I think there’s a little bit of closet well yeah go ahead and go ahead and back up give me go ahead and model your entire shirt too can you stand up and and my like Key West okay Key West far stand up oh look at him oh oh I think we took I think he just broke the Internet by standing up yeah I didn’t even see you stand up and do a model for me yeah look at him look at him he’s he’s he’s flexing his muscles um don’t take this question the wrong way because uh I only mean positive fives with it do you wear this shirt and uh public yes I do okay okay great we’re to the beach yep all right where did it wear it at the Fourth of July celebrate the Fourth of July yeah Fourth of July is is is big for you right I mean it’s always oh yes it’s a big time down there in North Myrtle Beach but so you you got over Lincoln’s graduation and uh yeah it’s been it’s two weeks and I’m still angry about all those people uh but I The Good the good news is that I feel like most most people are on my side you know from you know but I’m still suspicious that some of those people who say they’re on my side still pull out their phone and film dumb stuff that they shouldn’t be but don’t why are you getting me back in that headspace we’re talking we’re trying to be patriotic trying to be positive I’m feeling good we’re moving forward yes I put it behind me and I’m gonna throw one more thing because it’ll already be passed but uh Happy Father’s Day about a week or so ago so let’s go ahead and get that out of the way me and you both being I guess pretty good Fathers we’ve been pretty good we wear our heart on Our Sleeve even when we don’t have sleeves and um you know I do I I know how much you love me and I think my kids know how much I know my kids know how much I love them and it’s uh that yeah that that’s the core that’s the core of it right that’s right and uh if you’re if you’re doing things that that demonstrate that unconditional love and just that that allegiance to keep it positive to keep it patriotic um I think that goes a long way so yeah I love that you’re my dad and again I love that we do this and I know yeah because we kind of skipped over Father’s Day um on this show because we do every other week but um yeah which actually reminds me we’ve got some stuff coming up to kind of fill in that Gap you know we’ve been thinking about all right since we’re doing every other week of the show is there a little something that you could give people in the Stream like they think that they could listen to uh on the weeks where we’re not doing an official dispatchers Myrtle Beach like a mini dispatch type of thing right oh yeah yeah so be on the lookout for that how you feeling about it y’all need to watch but watch for that because um you know so some of you miss me uh in them uh in between weeks so we’re going to try to try to give you that’s right a little something to keep you uh caught up on things so just just be looking for it just like and it would just be like a couple of minutes you know it’d be like a short little thing just to hold you over just to tide you over myrtlebeast until we can we can reconnect like we are right now so yeah I like that idea and it’s because you know it just gives you some time to express yourself dad and have a little fun in a different mode let’s just see where it goes you know like like trying I like trying new things maybe you do too oh yeah you know I like to try new things so be it be on the lookout for that in your feed myrtlebeasts uh on on off weeks well link I you know uh you got me to wear in this getting my hair cut with this mullet uh-huh we got a holler out to Alice Downs Allen me and my brother William are huge fans from Manchester in the UK cool and I’m an illustrator and have drawn you both with mullets you got a picture of that Logan yep pulling it up right now look at that yes there it is oh man mullets of Myrtle Beach that is great we might see if we can get a copyright for that and see if I can have a t-shirt made like that Logan for me okay yeah you

instigated and got me into this so you’re welcome it was a good thing yeah and now we’re in it together and immortalized in artwork ain’t that the truth I’ve been immortalizing some stuff but it ain’t never been no artwork are you talking about like a wanted ad well I don’t know about wanted but you know my you know something I probably did and I shouldn’t have done years ago so uh the court records remember yeah that too okay all right all right I ain’t perfect but who is I turned out all right you did turned out all right so that’s right it’s time for another edition of Myrtle Beach mailbag I got one from Jen barbadi I think that would begin barbatti said she’s sent a question in and says what do One Direction the band and 70s porn haven’t common 70s porn have in common now if if they wouldn’t have clarified that it was One Direction the band would you have known what One Direction was uh yeah I think I’m I’ve heard a little bit I mean I I never bought one album but I I I think I know who One Direction is like what do you what do you know about One Direction uh very little but I know their group I think it’s a bunch of guys that sing together okay that’s okay yeah do you know any of their names no Harry hmm Styles Ah that’s it how’d you get that well it’s kind of what the answer to the question oh so I I just hope all right so what does you help what does One Direction the band and 70s porn have in common Harry Styles ain’t a porn stories he’s just in One Direction band right right he’s just a very talented musician who used to be in One Direction they they kind of go in their separate ways I’m a fan um now 70s porn I can’t say I don’t think I’ve ever seen any and I’m sure you haven’t either right no I ain’t never seen that okay yep good but I’m betting that there was since I know that it’s related to Harry Styles I bet you that the style down there were more hairy so I bet you I bet you it has something to do with that I don’t know in the 70s they didn’t have uh they didn’t have clippers I don’t know oh yeah there was a lot of different hairstyles in this late 60s and 70s kind of like this mullet but it was down there long hair yeah oh yeah but now down there I I don’t know but I I never try to style that down there so that’s out of my league oh well once you do you never go back I will I’ll tell you that just in theory just in theory I’m saying that once you style down there you you never you never go back I I and I and just in theory I do highly recommend it okay just in theory just in theory yeah okay well that’s another thing kind of like peeing in the shower so I’ll just have to yeah but you got to be careful because you don’t want to draw any blood okay yeah yeah which just in theory could happen just in theory can we move on this is getting to be a little painful and um too much self-disclosure for me you know I’m a private person uh talk about an email from Dylan Leahy okay Dylan says why did guys with foot fetishes never win why do guys with foot fetishes never win first of all no judgment um I get I can’t you know what I might be developing one of those honestly Dad um I’ve just been I just I love Christy’s feet like I’ve just you’re so they’re so you know she’s a she’s five nine she’s got this little foot it’s just such an adorable little foot I love it so I have a I have a foot fetish of for one so I get it I get it guys um but why do they never win because they love the taste of defeat oh is that I didn’t know that’s what they so if you have a fetish you like you like suck the toes I guess I guess it does follow I guess it’s fine I mean I’ve never done that have you ever done that sucked it sucked it I’m not gonna answer on that question it might incriminate me well no it would just be there no that would be a yes okay there you go I think you just incriminated yourself hey ain’t nothing wrong way it’s no crime no ah okay I would just have to um I don’t know I’m just not I’m not there yet I’m not there yet but when I found out that like people that I love and respect and I don’t know you’ve given me something to think about well you can just rub and massage that’s all right all right yeah yeah yeah just kind of ease into it maybe just do maybe maybe I find myself sniffing a little bit after a while yeah yeah I think so I’m I’m always open a new intimate adventures with full consent that’s right so I’ll I’ll see what I can do dad I will report back okay you ain’t got to do it on the show I’m like I’m not gonna get in trouble it’s one thing I mean I I we can talk

unusual but I’ve never heard it either it’s not usual it’s better than usual super usual but she sent a question I’ve I have been trying to refrain from swearing okay I want to clean up my vocabulary I was wondering if you would be able to give me some Southern phrases that I can substitute into my conversation at work lengthy been been cursing it up at work and depending on the job environment out here in LA in the entertainment industry dad I mean we just curse like Sailors it’s just it’s just part of everybody’s just they just let Let it Fly you express yourself in that way it just it’s just like a part of the it’s accepted in the work culture but I think in a lot of places it’s not so this could really be uh of help to lanthy yeah if you lived in the South uh lanty you’d probably have to clean this up pretty quick you might get run off from somewhere but uh just to kind of help you out um I I kind of been thinking about because I I have had the same problem you have that uh I I have let some as a matter of fact I I have just done some swearing when I ought not be doing it so oh you know you’re not talking to I’m not just giving you advice for somebody that happened tried to clean up what how I talked to some we’ll try I’m gonna try to help you out with this this isn’t so this isn’t I mean bull hockey this is uh this is the real deal the real yeah this is sincere from experience you know a lot most of the time when you you do swearing it’s just you just go you just get so used to it yeah that it just comes out of your mouth so you kind of just have to learn how to refrain yourself but one of the things I say is good gotta moochie good God Emoji yeah good gotta moochie instead of saying whatever you say and is that a good one though is it is that is that positive when like when do you use that one like give me an example when you would say good god of moochie because honestly I’ve never heard you say good god of moochie this is a new one for me well I mean if somebody was saying something to me and you know I I thought it was you know uh out there somewhere instead of having to say uh swearwood where did I say say good God Emoji you really did that okay uh it’s basically like it’s like it’s like WTF what the yeah okay it replaces what the and then another one just gosh darn it but there’s a better one than that dad gum it oh yeah yeah dad gummit is very that feels very Southern dead gummit and that when it comes out like in that moment when you when you wanna if you want to say GD but you don’t because like to me it’s like f word is like a is a big bad but and GD is even worse GD is like the worst right because then it gets religious and it and that you know that really pushes people’s buttons and like um especially and in certain circles like in the Bible Belt like you don’t take the lord’s name in vain and that was the interpretation of what that was like a simplification of what it what that commandment meant was to be correct yep don’t curse don’t cuss using we throwing God’s name in don’t bring God into your cousin so then changing it to gosh darn it is too weak it doesn’t accomplish anything dad gum it still has that percussive element of just anger and it gets it out there yeah where you where you’re exasperated and trying to get you feelings out there about what’s been going on yeah so get get give me that give me that one let me like what if somebody somebody I came up behind and I gave you a wet willy and I know how much you hate that all right so right now like I’m gonna pretend I’m doing it through the internet and you just give me a good dad gum it and then we can get your next one oops that dumb it link don’t do that to me no more in the look on your faces is very real okay all right all right all right I’m sorry Dad that’s me I said I know you need me in business that’s the one you needed to go with what else you got it’s got to do with some religion about it but you know when I tried to uh quit swearing and swearing so much I I just I asked a good Lord to take it away from me and not do it so much so that’s my other advice you know whether or not your religious person or not you know that that’s fine but that that’s the way it helped me knew that he did he didn’t want me swearing so uh okay it helped me to ask him to because he can help you with a lot of stuff without swearing and and I’m not gonna get on that phrase would you but I just think he can hear he can help a lot of people with a lot of things going on in their life so I don’t I mean I think I disagree Dad we’re in a different place with this one because I’m like I don’t think God cares I mean I think there’s a lot bigger things to worry about than I mean you don’t not to say bad but don’t say bad words like I’ve started saying a lot more bad words now that I realize I don’t think it matters I think as long as you do it as a if there’s a right way to do it there’s there’s an appropriate place for swearing I mean right I mean because it it’s in form of expression uh if you’re like I mean I there’s some that I’m kind of fond of like if you get hurt you want to say you want to say now I’m a lot older than you what’s so what’s wrong with it what’s wrong what’s wrong with cursing why did I mean you feel like you want to pray for God to help you not to curse me why that’s just what I believe I mean is it more about like the self-control of it like I I understand that it’s like you don’t want to it’s just the way I grew up different cultures and stuff then young people do now so I mean and I ain’t gonna change so yeah I’m not trying to change you I’m just I I know I’m just interested yeah uh and I think you got a lot of out of your system I didn’t oh yeah I didn’t cuss at all because I you know I think you did from the sound of it and now it’s like we’re now we’re now we’re like Crossing streams now I’m taking out I’m I’m I’m I’m balancing the force I’m the one cursing and you’re the one not cursing well I didn’t say I didn’t curse them okay I ain’t going there you know I I which ones are you which ones are you hanging on to I said well most time it might be I would not have done that all right damn it yeah uh you know them two words is probably the two I ain’t been able to get rid of I think those are great those are great and they’re kind of innocuous like is I think the best curse word yeah I’ll never forget Rhett said that I remember one time you came into uh it was like the Elementary School lunchroom and he was like and my dad just came back from a trip to Vermont he said that they say on the radio up there like they’ll say chicken and so when they’re talking about excrement they use the word and it’s totally fine it’s on the radio I’ll never forget that don’t lose that one day come on ain’t nobody cares I probably ain’t but you know I think God loves the word well I think he loves everything about us here any that he he might agree with some of the stuff but he just loves everything about us so lantha I don’t know if I helped you any with that but you know you you just have to take this and care wherever you want to that’s right hip and you quit cursing so much but yeah yeah just a big one just get rid of those that you know but keep a little in your life all right I I got another email from Lexi Pierce okay and she said to make some extra money I took an afternoon job as a custodian at a primary school and just remember Primary School don’t get me wrong the money is great and the work isn’t too hard but there’s just one problem is so dad gum boring tag up clean yeah that gun Lexi actually said dad gum yeah yep wow she wrote wrote it on this thing so well you’re not me up and down in a cleaning a primary school consists of vacuuming crust goldfish out of the on the carpet wiping poop smears off the bathroom walls talking about already and scrubbing invisible glue off tables I ain’t really got I ain’t I don’t know if I understand about this invisible glue house you can see to clean it but whatever good point and while and while listening to all listening to your your all’s podcast definitely helps the dread I need help making cleaning fun well Lexi the first thing I want to tell you is that um I think that uh you taking on a second job to submit to make some extra money is very commendable and and because it listen there’s a lot of these a lot of people in this world that don’t even work one job and you working too to try to make ends meet and make it you know so uh you know I’m gonna go somewhere like you did with your tantrum later last last two weeks go off Dad oh you don’t you don’t like freeloaders loafers I don’t like that I don’t like people that don’t work with all the jobs that’s in this world you can get a job and and it there’s a lot of people that work at these fast foods restaurants and all these places you could get a job there they do pretty well for themselves too but anyway I’m gonna get back to Lexi Lexi I I think you you probably got this started out on the right beat because you’re already listening to dispatches from Myrtle Beach and what men links talking about and I know you probably can’t listen to us for four or five or six hours but you know you can probably hit it a couple of times and you know another hour goes by and hit it again and listen to us and try to try to see what’s going on but take a hit I got dispatchers from Myrtle Beach but the other thing I thought about Lexi do to make you smile and where you’re working because it’s a primary school just think back to when you were in Primary School and I I you probably won’t like me I was I was pretty mischievous in primary school and I think about it and and I it just makes me green and laugh when I think about some of the stuff I did I still ain’t understand how you uh know where you scrubbing visible glue off of tables you need to send me another email about how do you know where the invisible glue is at because it makes me laugh to try to figure out how you figuring out for the invisible glues at so exactly it’s invisible how can you see it right that’s what I’m trying to figure that’s me too so I like your advice you say reminisce about when you were a student I think there’s some things I think you can turn cleaning into Fun by if they let you listen if if you’re able to listen to dispatches I love that you can listen to music I think you can turn it into like a workout the good thing about cleaning is that you can get your whole body involved and so you can invent new ways to clean that’s what I do when I clean I consider it a form of meditation it gets you in your body Dad where you’re like oh I’m waxing on I’m waxing off I’m wiping this off the walls and then I’m polishing it and it’s kind of you know it’s you can you can get a nice workout get your body limber oh yeah and maybe next week it’s like oh I’m gonna put this I’m gonna put this buffer on my feet and I’m gonna strut down the hallway it’s like maybe maybe you’ll invent a totally new way to clean oh yeah I don’t know you could also start a tick tock account you know there’s lots of good cleaning on Tick Tock trust me Lexie I hope that helps with your cleaning and uh make you jealous and happy about the second job that you’ve gotten hope that helps with it good luck now it’s time for a word from our sponsor we gotta I gotta add this week for the uh chair Grove Pier Fourth of July fireworks let’s hear it and it every year Cherry Grove puts a fantastic fireworks display on that on on the pier all the way out at the end of it link where you can go out and sit on the beach or even as far as down as where we live at on the beach which is probably a mile okay but what’s amazing about it is before those fireworks ever start fireworks are illegal in North Myrtle Beach oh really to put them off on the beach but you can buy fireworks at a store right outside of Myrtle Beach North Myrtle Beach down here and set them off but on the 4th of July people line up and and do them on the beach for about the two hours up to where and I’m gonna tell you some people spend four or five thousand dollars on fireworks I mean they’re amazing we’re sitting on the beach yeah and watching them going off air so freelance fireworks Hall of Fame is a song that we wrote many years ago because you we would go from North Carolina down to South Carolina and there were these people you’re right they would spend thousands of dollars and they would make their own firework display that I mean it might not rival Cherry Grove but it would be quite a surprise to see it come out of somebody’s backyard you know what I’m telling that’s that’s the spirit of South Carolina like that’s the first thing I think about like freelance fireworks Hall of Fame these guys who and gals who are just willing to sacrifice fingers to just to just to just make an amazing patriotic display if you’re down here at the beach on the 4th of July you got a lot looking forward to about some fireworks at the uh Cherry Grove Pier just don’t lose a finger death or anything else just watch and enjoy that’s a highlight of the year out there on the beach I know hey I I want to take charge for uh a little segment here and and go for it again the you’re way over my head now you up for that I’m up yeah go ahead let me see see if I figured some of this stuff out you’re way over my head man all right spilling the tea you heard this phrase what does that mean that means um that somebody told you something and you turned around and you you’re not supposed to tell it that anybody else but you you just let that gossip go and you just tell them about what’s going on you nailed it you tell it to somebody else hi you’re not you know that one I’m did I insult you because I thought you didn’t know that one all right what about goat goat is just somebody I think uh God been hearing this some lately and that’s probably the only reason I might know the answer to this okay but it’s kind of like uh uh choosing between Michael Jordan and some other Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or I didn’t recognize the people that LeBron most of these people LeBron James that who’s the best basketball player that’s ever been is there more to it than that you are right that’s what it means but could it stand for something and here’s a Hint it does do you know I take uh just first thing that comes to your mind starts with a g and O and a and a t just tell just tell me uh got on at TV I don’t know got on it TV that’s a good guess it’s like Michael Jordan got on at TV uh some rappers got on it TV but that’s not it try again G what’s G stand for go for it gravy on my at toast gravy on it toast you put gravy on toast I put gravy on a biscuit but I’ve never put gravy on toast gravy on at toast you’ve never had you eat you eat sausage gravy before not on the not on toast oh yeah okay fine you’re right Dad but that’s not what goat stands for try one more time greatest greatest of all time that’s it you see you had it in there all right what about that slaps that slaps what’s that mean that means I like what you did I like what I’m looking at that’s good yep it means that something is really good especially like a song that song slaps dad you’re slapping hard today uh what about sleep on sleep on usually in the context that don’t sleep on just just leave me in this meditating State and Let Me ease right on into what what uh what I’m doing nope no okay yeah if don’t sleep on dispatchers from Myrtle Beach because oh it’s Gonna Get You It’s Gonna Get You don’t sleep on dispatching from Myrtle Beach you’re gonna miss something oh yeah I it doesn’t mean that you actually fall asleep it means that you metaphorically fall asleep like you you overlook it or you underestimate it okay one more glow up that means that you get really excited about what’s going on and you just uh jump up and down like you’re having a good time when’s the last time you had a glow up probably last Thursday night at the concert downtown oh yeah you glowed up with yeah with the entertainers was playing enjoying the music and having a having a good time I think you’re thinking about turn up you you turned up at that concert but glow up you would do before you turn up glow up is when uh it’s a makeover or a transformation from bad to good and a lot of times it’s like like physical appearance like wow that’s quite a glow up oh hey that that makes sense to me because you know when I wear my paint clothes and people recognize me from uh working and painting and working and then they see me to uh off somewhere like downtown or somewhere and they look at me like well I know who you are but then they they kind of figure and said boy you dress up you clean up pretty good yeah yeah all right yeah you did great dad I will say you got your head above water on this one more often than not so you weren’t over your head today yeah
