ramble [Music] [Applause] [Music] this is dispatches from myrtle beach with charles nell and link neal my son from good mythical morning so we’re gonna swing right on into this podcast and see what we can get into today good to see you son hey dad you looking good yeah it ain’t hard when you got a son like you i got so you know yeah oh i try to look good all the time so so uh i can take some of the credit for how good you look it usually goes the other way you know you gave me the genes that’s right but you know it helps to spread the love around a little bit and everything i mean you look great for 70. it’s very encouraging to me yeah well you know i i think i do pretty good for somebody 70 years old so you know i have people tell me that all the time you know when we went on our trip the people said and they were talking about me and nancy but said ain’t no way that you’re that age i said yeah yeah we’re that age what what’s the what’s the key to being so spry he’s keeping young just keep busy and keep doing something don’t just quit and you know try to don’t sit on your ass that’s right don’t just sit on your tail and just let life go by you got to keep trying to keep doing things and living life the best you can and until you’re fullest so you know if you quit you you know good things don’t happen so it’s just a good thing to keep motivated and and do things and it’s you know it’s not like you haven’t encountered your own physical and medical adversity i mean you’ve got leukemia freaking a form of leukemia yeah so how has that diagnosis impacted your life i know this isn’t what we had planned but i’m just you know i was just thinking about it i tell people all the time most of the time in our life when you’re living everybody’s going to have something some people have one type of cancer and my type of leukemia which is a cancer but they told me i was lucky it said i i got the kind that they can treat and do something real so i i take three three chemo pills a day and it helps keep my blood levels in check and where i can still work and keep going and everything so you know i feel very fortunate cause you were diagnosed what four years ago i think 2019 three years ago i remember when you called and told me and christy and like put it on speaker phone and we were you know it’s it you hear the word leukemia and it’s like it was a shock it was so it was very scary and then yeah you explained like explain to me again just for the benefit of people listening like what is the diagnosis and the specific name for it chronic lymphatic leukemia and it’s a type of blood cancer that it your white blood cell count goes real high it makes you tired and until they get you on the medicine and stuff but it just you can’t do anything you can’t even hardly get up and want to take a shower or do anything just makes you lose weight not want to eat you know my doctor was astonished because i i started taking the medicine and the next month i went back and all my blood levels and everything was back to normal and so what’s the uh prognosis that something else will kill me that’s not gonna be the thing that does it to you no probably not no i’ve talked to some people that’s had it for over 20 years oh wow and they still do pretty well with it and everything so then but once you got that squared away how do you think it i mean is that why you and nancy started traveling more and was there like a different mentality that like okay we all know that our days are numbered but when you get a diagnosis like that and it’s scary and then you got to go through this whole procedure and there was a a couple of months when you know the answers weren’t clear and then even after they are clear and you’re like on even keel now and you know this isn’t what’s gonna this is not what’s gonna do you in yeah i’m just wondering like did it change your life well it it makes the light come on you know that maybe you need to quit working so much because i’ve got to go back to work and everything that you needed to do things and enjoy life some so you’re right i mean we we started traveling and going places and doing things so it makes you have a totally different perspective when something can happen to you and take you out this whole world but i’m gonna try to do what i need to do to stay healthy and look out to myself and then when it’s my time it’s my time and so you just live life the best you can and just keep going i’m glad that you’ve got this treatment plan and that everything’s kind of evened out but that you also have like a renewed perspective i think it seems healthy i still think you’re working too hard but that’s just my opinion yours and nancies and everybody else yeah so what’s new give me a dispatch i went down to the pizza place uh the other night and got me and nancy some pizza yeah and when i walked in the door the board it was in there it says i remember who you are oh i know what you’re talking about he said i’m still watching you son on good mythical morning and everything and i said well that’s great and everything so yeah tell them that story when you were here at the beach with us the kids wanted some pizza so we was traipsing on downtown and i thought the way i remember it we had already eaten dinner oh yeah you had like you’d cook steaks ribs ribs yes you would grill your signature ribs yep this is this is like the first time we as a family had gone and visited you down there and at your beach house that’s right so you made your signature ribs and then we had homemade ice cream and then we were hanging out there underneath your house because it’s on stilts and that’s when lily was like i kind of want some pizza and i’m like what it was like 10 o’clock at night and i was like trying to shut it down and you were like well there’s a pizza shop right over here a couple of blocks and i was like you want to go get pizza dad i remember that so then what happened so the name of the place is main slice pizza and we left and went and as we were walking down the street i looked back at what you had on and you had a pair of pants on it said good mythical morning yeah because i was i was in my pajamas these are like sweatpants that’s right so we went walking down the street and as we were walking and we got downtown i got to looking and i looked back there was people following us and i said so we got to the pizza place and we went in the door and when we went in the door to board it was young man that was working in there he didn’t say a word but he kind of recognized i said you know who he is don’t you he said oh yeah i know who he is and uh i said well that’s my son my two grandchildren here won’t want some pizza and he kind of went over and kind of locked the door because there was a lot of everybody who was following us was outside outside wanting to come inside and taking pictures taking pictures is probably just like paparazzi but not yeah there was 60 or 70 people out there anyway you went up and talked to the boy and we and the kids got their pizza and we got it to go and everything and you looked over at this young man that was working and he says is there another way out of this place he said oh yeah and he was nice enough that he come out and and these buildings are pretty long and he he carried us out in the back door back there and you stopped and took took a picture with him and then the boy it was a little young man it was about 14 or something you took a picture with him and then we we booked it on back up to the house yeah we had an escape hatch yep worked out pretty good that we didn’t have to stay down there for an hour or two but well i didn’t want to endure the the crowd and like i kind of wanted to get back but i also thought it would be fun for us to kind of slip away so yeah i did it for the for the fun of it too just to see because i didn’t i didn’t tell you i was going to try to slip out the back door we were just gonna get ushered away that’s one of the times where i felt most like a celebrity when you got to slip through the back door of the pizza parlor get you something to eat and slip away so it worked out pretty good for us that night did you get any more emails oh i got several emails you want to hear all right let’s get to it it’s time for another edition of myrtle beach mailbag i got a email here from uh lorraine bennett all right it says what do you call sweaty breasts what do you call sweaty breasts and damp boobies what’s the weather like down here when it’s hot muggy humid humid [Music] humid hue am i close you yeah you’re getting close humid and we’re talking about breasts humid titties humidity humidity humidities humid titties [Laughter] that was a pretty good one i like that one i got one from alex smith he says bill has worked in a pickle factory for several years one day he confessed to his wife that he had a terrible urge to stick his penis into a pickle slice his wife suggests that he see a therapist to talk about it a few weeks later bill returns home his wife asks what’s wrong bill i lost my job do you remember how i told you about my urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer his wife gasped horrified the woman pulls down his pants to see his penis intact what on earth happened to the pickle slicer she yells bill replies oh um she got fired too oh no oh she got fired too the pickle slicer was a female employee yeah i think that’s what he he probably had a lot more trouble to look forward to than that yeah this is just dawning on you yeah why did you pick this one you didn’t know what it so you could help me understand it already all right yeah the pickle slicer is a person yeah she also got fired and i don’t know why he went home told his wife to do that kind of story i hadn’t figured out something else honesty is uh is is it is paramount to a vibrant relationship dad yeah when you sticking your pickle in a different slice or two yeah it’s gonna get vibrant right yeah i got another one from catherine cappatini okay why do ducks have feathers on their lower backs why do ducks have feathers on their lower backs tell me to cover their butt quacks okay that one’s that one’s cuter i like it to cover their butt quacks yeah i got another from cody wright says what is your recipe for the perfect fried bologna sandwich well now cody i i got some stories about some fried bologna sandwiches because we got some places down here myrtle beach can cook you a good fried bologna sandwich this is a myrtle beach thing i know you read an ad you made one up pretty early on about the people making the bologna sandwich at the club but like i’ve never purchased a bologna sandwich from anybody that’s just something you make at home but if you want it to be a good fried bologna sandwich you got to go somewhere where they sell the bologna at the grocery store you you got to go in there and get them cut about an inch thick you can’t have no thin baloney like you buy in the grocery store in them little packs where you got to stack them on top of one another you got to have a good thick about an inch thick bologna piece of baloney inch thick about an inch thick yeah damn that’s the way they do them in the all these clubs and stuff down here in these restaurants and then they fry it well they’ll either put them in the grease and deep fry but i i don’t like mine like that i like to have them put mine on the top of the skillet and fry it on both sides and that turn it over two or three times and then they put it on the sandwich and it’s fried it ain’t all greasy and it’s just good and then of course i get mustard mayonnaise put on mine onions and lettuce and tomato and just all kinds of stuff it it’s some kind of good good blondy sandwich so see i don’t like bologna dad and but i also don’t like tomatoes you know this how does that make you feel i know you love tomatoes yeah boy i just got some out of my garden the other day and you talking about some kind i had a uh i’d made a sandwich with duke’s mayonnaise oh lord man it was some kind of good i just can’t i i can’t do it man they’re nasty so hey you eat sushi and i won’t eat it so what’s the difference i mean i’m gonna eat it i’d rather eat a domain a sandwich and eat some sushi soup okay well i don’t eat a lot of sushi but i guess you’re

savannah wolf he says how does one re move the tiny bits of wallpaper that are stuck on the wall my mom and i are redoing the dining room and had to remove some wallpaper we used the vinegar and water trick with their steel little things of paper first of all you poor little soles i’m telling you because taking down wallpaper can be some kind of trip because i’ve took down a bunch of it so you’re not being facetious i thought for a second you were you were not saying oh poor little poor little people can’t take your wallpaper no hey most of the time with that type of wallpaper it’s cause it was the kind they put on the walls they didn’t put any sizing behind it which is a paint kind of thing and when you go to take it off it when you emulsify it to get it off it’ll come off but most of the time it’s cause they use some put some cheap wallpaper up on the wall now i don’t know if y’all did this or not but if you got good wallpaper it’s got a backing on it where the top part will come off but i got a steam machine that i use that when you put it on the wall it’ll steam it and you take a scraper you can just peel it right off it takes a little while to do it but you don’t leave all them little pieces so you know you might have to look in a seat and getting you one of them steam machines and helping with that wallpaper see that look at that look at look at the stuff that people are learning like you’re opening up the knowledge vaults i love the fact that like people can email you anything you’re all over it steam machine and i got a another email from stephanie scobee says what’s the difference between a hormone and an enzyme this is technical what’s the difference between a hormone and an enzyme i’m nervous you can’t hear an enzyme no you can’t yeah wow dad that’s what they say facts now it’s time for a word from our sponsor and i got a uh another thing that we’re going to try to help sponsor a guy with and his name’s cody carpenter and he says hello my name is cody with a k and i work for a live music and entertainment venue in downtown gastonia north carolina oh so you you got an email you got a sponsorship yeah i guess so how much is cody with a campaign he paying me nothing oh you still want to do it yeah i think we need to try to help the boy out all right go for it they’re going to open up a club and gaston called roosters and it’s gonna have live music and i’ve had a little bit of thing in my background back in the late 80s where i helped i worked in a club and did some stuff in it and we had live music in it but the first thing you got to do if you open up a new club i know you want to use new people and people that don’t know and everything but if you’re going to be a hit when you open up that first night you’re going to have to have a name band to come in there and play some music like you want some shagging music and different things and i i’m just gonna give you the name of somebody see if you can look up and get them the name of the group’s too much sylvia and they’re up from around where you’re from up there so if you could get them to come you’ll pack the house and once you get your name started you can get different other groups to come in there and do stuff so you know that might be something you want to try uh cody i like how you just it was an ad but you turned it into advice for cody as he starts his club in gastonia and the rooster is on 334 west main street gaston in north carolina uh and it’s the roostergastonia.com and it’s going to open sometime to end august 1st of september all right hopefully he’ll take your advice i actually had an idea for a segment dad if you’re open to it you know there’s some things that come up on this show that i learn a lot from you sometimes you learn some stuff from me oh yeah so i thought maybe i could throw out some some slang some terminology that i don’t think you know what these things mean but maybe you do or maybe you can figure it out okay well it’s time for our first edition of your way over my head now so i’ll throw out a word you tell me what you think it means all right getting catfished i mean somebody’s pulled a prank on you to that you’re trying to and make fun of you and do something with you to make it to embarrass you or do something with you well you’re on the right track with the prank but it’s more of it it’s in a relational context well it sounds like you you might have a girlfriend to have something then she she’s trying to make you jealous or something and or somebody else to make you pay more attention to her so she says i’m going off with another another guy and that other guy is a what friend of mine no catfish oh a debate to get you hooked up to make you do things more of what she wants you to do well it’s more of an online dating thing you’re getting closer you ever dated anybody online no yep no interest in that no what do you think the first problem is when you’re dating somebody online that you really don’t know who they are so put that together with catfish well see when i think about catfish i think about catching one out the river and skinning it and cook it and eating it so yeah you get something on the line you think it’s a catfish but you pull it up and it’s could be a gar that’s right it could be a gar it could be a ugly fish like a scary prehistoric looking fish that you don’t want that’s what being catfished is okay like they’ll send pictures of themselves but it’s not really them oh yeah i heard about that before yeah yeah the mile high club i think you might know what this one is that that’s flying in a plane and you take your woman on back there and y’all get in the bat in the bathroom together and you make love to one another you’re all over this one yep that’s exactly it now this is intriguing to me are you a member of the mile high club no i ain’t a member but it ain’t that i didn’t want to try to be but it just want enough room you could leave the door open but that’s a big risk somebody else might as well come in be in a mile high club with you if you do that or you might get kicked off the plane they might have to do an emergency landing i don’t know what they would do it’s not like you’re smoking in the in the bathroom in a plane i mean if they if you’re caught what’s the worst that can happen would they land the plane would they would they cause a ruckus well you know the next time i fly somewhere i may ask you just ask the stewardess you know what do y’all do when uh if somebody tries to be a member of the mile high club with jaw please do oh i’ll ask ghosting do what what’s ghosting you trying hard when somebody’s doing something with you that that it they don’t want you to know that they’re trying to do it to you and and somebody else know that you’re doing it or not knowing that they’re doing it where you don’t know who’s doing it or what i am confused it’s no it’s it’s more of just like when when somebody just like disappears they fall off the face of the earth they they don’t give you the time of day anymore when you’re talking to somebody then all of a sudden they’re not like if you’re texting somebody then all of a sudden they don’t text you anymore they just drop you well most of the people i text text me back and i don’t do no i don’t do facebook so if they ghost me and don’t want to talk to me anymore it don’t hurt my feelings none just i’ve gone and i i got other friends but they ain’t much of a friend to me anyway so just let that go and just go on you know why that is dad that’s because you’ve got bde you know what that stands for uh no you just get give a give a guess b d e just the first thing that comes to your mind bde something with something having to do with balls or something okay all right so balls balls d e like what put it all together balls don’t care something i don’t know no not c e balls d e balls down everywhere and so what does that what does that mean if balls are down everywhere what does that mean it means they’re just hanging down and you don’t they don’t care whether you like it or not you know you’re very close it’s not the balls it’s the b stands for big oh so what’s the d you ever heard of the d people would just say the d like give me the d you know what that is the big dick everywhere yeah it’s not it’s energy oh so put that together big dick energy yeah so i mean i you’ve never heard this term no but now that you hear it can you make sense of it what do you think it means that it just don’t make any difference whether uh what anybody else thinks i got the energy to do whatever i want to yeah it’s a confidence it’s a swagger as if you know if you got a if you got if you got something big dangling down there in between your legs it’s kind of like that would kind of it would be part of your persona you know i’d say you got some bde yeah i got some sometimes it it probably used to get me in trouble some but uh i got some i got some big bde what about dtf dtf down to the farm down to the farm you write about the first word it is down down to you’re right about the second word you got two out of the three right dad down two down to the frog yeah you know what that is it yeah i think that’s what it should be down to the frog otherwise it’s the it’s the f word okay it means that you’re you are ready to have intercourse you are up for having intercourse with somebody okay down to f you know what i’m saying i know what you’re saying man if you have bde and you want to say i’m dtf this bde is dtf vde is dtf yeah well i don’t want to put words in your mouth be careful where you texted that are you happy with that segment did you learn did you learn enough oh yeah i learned some stuff well you’re welcome well thank you yeah hope it don’t get me in no trouble how’s it gonna get you in trouble i don’t know [Laughter] [Music] that’s not bde right there somebody with bde doesn’t say well i hope it doesn’t get me in trouble you gotta you gotta keep that bde stoked you gotta stoke that flame the bde flame so i’m gon yeah i’m gonna try to keep it stoked the best i can to make sure see people keep listening and stuff yeah sometimes sometimes things just go up over my head that’s what this segment’s for so i can get in your brain well you you got in it i think my job here is done well before we end today’s show i want
