This is Dispatches from Myrtle Beach with Charles Neal and my son Link from Good Mythical Morning. How you doing, Link? I’m doing good, Dad. How about you? Oh, doing, doing good. Yeah, it’s, uh, been just, uh, another week in the world of work and doing things and helping Nancy with that show I told y’all about and all that, so. We almost into October. I’m getting that fall fever, you know, it’s like you start to get a little, you get a little bit of a brisk, you know. And it’s in the breeze and you’re like, oh man, I’m getting a little excited, getting a little excited. Oh, yeah, things are changing. It’s very subtle out here how things change, but, and it happens a little later for us, but, well, it happens, happens a little later for us because it’s usually October or, you know, First of November for it starts to cool off here too. So yeah, just to let you know give you a little update that Nana’s Still doing good and doing her exercises and doing really well got about walking around Pushing that cat around. Yeah, six more weeks of her physical therapy, and then we’ll see what goes on after that. But she’s doing pretty good, doing pretty good. Glad to hear it. Yeah, and then, uh, I just wanted to, all the Myrtle Beast out there, just give all of y’all, uh, a holler out for, uh, watching Dispatches. From Myrtle Beach with me and Link and everything y’all have done to help this show a success. Cause listen, y’all, y’all know that most anybody can do a podcast and then try to get one started. But if you don’t have the people that follow you and like you and like what you do, it don’t work out a whole lot of times. So. I appreciate every, every, all the Myrtle Beasts out there that watch the podcast and hope that, uh, we keep doing things that’ll help y’all and, and want y’all to keep watching. Yeah, keep watching, to keep listening, however you do it. We want you to keep doing it. Tell it, tell people about it. You know, we enjoy hanging out with each other. We enjoy you listening in our conversations and feeling like you’re a part of. Our relationship, our friendship, and a little bit like, uh, like a member of the family. You remember the, uh, dispatches from Myrtle Beach family and hey, we’re looking for opportunities to, to grow the family without having babies. So maybe that’s like adopting older siblings that are listeners. Is this analogy getting a little strange? All I’m saying is just invite people, invite people to listen, you know, that’s what I tell them. When I have people walk up to me and they recognize me now and say, you know, just keep telling people about it and get your friends involved and I’ll give them some of them cards to hand out, give them, cause I’ll pull one out and say, give me one of them. I’ll give it to my friend so he can pull up that QR code and make it easier to watch and everything. Cause, you know, uh, I got an example of exactly what I’m talking about with all you Myrtle Beasts out there. It says, it’s from Quincy, it says, I’m writing to let you know how you’ve helped me. Recently, I had to put my dog down and I’ve been quite sad and missing her. Oh, no. Yeah, boy, that’s, we, boy, Quincy, me and Nancy’s been there. Been there. We had, uh, when we had to put our, uh, little dog down and it’s, it’s tough. But he says, Dispatches from Myrtle Beach has been the only thing I felt like watching. It’s just so wholesome and comforting, not to mention entertaining. I could listen to you talk all day long and have nothing creepy. It’s really helped. You can listen, hold on. You can listen to us talking all day long. But not in a creepy way, that’s what he’s saying? Yeah, that’s what it says. I could listen to you talk all day long and have nothing creepy. And have nothing creepy. I could listen to you talk all day long and have. Oh, and have. Nothing creepy. Oh. There you go. So he has listened to us talk all day long, but not in a creepy way. I get it now. Okay. It’s really helped me in ways I can’t express. Thanks so much to you and Link, and all involved behind the scenes. That is cool to hear, you know, there’s I mean, there’s something that people find comforting about us just shooting the breeze with each other. And we get, you know, we get some good laughs in there, but even, even in between the laughs, I think that people find, you know, calm and comfort with it. And, uh, you know, and they, you know, Our, our connection kind of rubs off on people in a good way. Nothing creepy. So . Yeah. Uh, yeah. But just, I’m, I’m, I’m glad to do that. I’m glad that this, this is that to provide this service to people just by me and you reconnecting with each other. Just talk and, you know, and, and lot of, when I tell people about the show Dispatches from Myrtle Beach, they’ll say, what are you talking about? And I said. Well, we have people that send questions in and stuff, but we, we just talk about life stories that I’ve lived through, and Link’s been through, and just all those different things, and people can see that it’s genuine, and And what we’re doing, it ain’t just something that, you know, you have to pull off the top of your head that you’re talking about, that we’ve experienced what’s going on, and we try to help, you know, people with those things that maybe people won’t make the same mistakes I made. Oh, okay. There’s a little bit of that. You know, the thing Quincy talking about, about mourning, um, the loss of his dog. And you’ve been through it, and I haven’t been through it yet. Yeah, we lost little Foxy. Yeah, I’ve been, you know, Well, I’ll put it to you this way. There’s a trend on TikTok, Dad, and it’s called My Toxic Trait Is. And then it’s basically somebody saying something that they do that is kind of, Funny, but it’s like a confession of a, of a habit or a practice that somebody has and the one I saw recently was my toxic trait is mourning the loss of my dog that’s not dead yet and it’s like this guy with his lab and he’s just like putting, putting his, putting their noses together and just like, every time I pet Jade, there’s just part of me that’s like, Mourning the loss of Jade, and I just can’t help but think about it because I love her so much, and I know that it’s gonna, it’s gonna happen at some point. Um, and I, you know, Link, it’s, Nancy and I can relate to that because of Gypsy, because Gypsy’s 16 years old, be 17 in December. Mm hmm. She still does really well, runs up and down the steps and does some things, but she has some spells where you can tell it’s different, you know, and Nancy and I both have talked about, you know, there’s something going to happen to her one of these days, and we, we think about it, and it ain’t even happened yet, and we’re just like that, and we, we think about it a little bit too. Well, I think. You should think about getting another dog now cuz that ain’t gonna happen. Well, well, hold on. Well, I don’t know why you said I’m glad that you know Jade’s like eight and Jasper’s like three or four. So it’s I like having him it’s staggered like that So it’s I don’t know I feel like if I lost Jade and then I had to go through that mourning process and then decide to get another dog later. I don’t know, that seems really hard. I think that having another dog, like, having them, having another dog there will be helpful. Well, Nancy and I have talked about that, and the flip side of what you’re saying is you’re not our age yet that we’re trying to Do some traveling and going places and doing things and, uh, so it’s, you know, we go somewhere and after about two or three days, we say, darn, I miss Gypsy. We left her with our sitter, Nancy, most of the time, and you know, you get about halfway through where you’re going and then, uh, kind of like the trip. Uh, we probably done been out there to, uh, do the stuff with Good Mythical Morning and all the stuff we were doing with y’all out there, and we were going to be gone, we were going to be gone about 10 days in all, so, uh, leaving her alone. You know, I was going to say, you could. You could bring her out here. Well, you know, if we, we, we thought, thought about that, but then when we leave you, we gotta fly to Key West. . . Okay. I, I can’t take to Key West. You just gotta do it. Can’t take her to Key West. You gotta, yeah. No, you gotta be able to fly by the seat of your pants. If you can find your pants, you know what I’m saying? That would be correct. Okay. Yeah. I understand what you’re saying. Okay. Well. But I have, we have, you know, when we get, if we get older and can’t travel and our health’s not good, then we may see about getting another little dog, but, uh, but it’s kind of hard. You’re in a season of life where, you know, you don’t want to, you don’t want to see her go, but you don’t, you also don’t want to replace her. Yeah. Okay, I get that. I get that. So, uh, Quincy, that’s about what we got going on with, and I’m glad that we were able to comfort you and give you some, someone to listen to and ease your pain and everything. With what was going on, losing your dog. Well, Link, I, I got something that says, Hey, Link. I was told to ask, have you ever been to Bofa? Bofa? No. Have I ever been to Bofa? Are you about to say something like Deez nuts or something? Yeah. Both of these nuts. Well, how did that even happen? I sat here and like, I, I knew, I felt like it was gonna happen and then it still happened. , it still works. BofA, you ever been to BofA? Never been to BofA. . I ain’t never been no dad. I’ve never been to both of your nuts. . Uh, it’s a strange question for you to ask me. I don’t, I don’t ever wanna visit both of you. Lets, . I think I have caught a glimpse of them over, over our history because. I mean, you’re not, you’re not the most, um, what’s the word? Uh, what is the word I’m looking for? Discrete person. No, that’s not, that’s still not the word I’m looking for. You don’t care about being naked and somebody catching a glimpse of you. It’s just not something that you’re concerned about. No, I ain’t anybody to run around the college naked in sand hills. And I mean, you know, and then, uh, no, I’ll jump in my pool naked, When I get out, I have the towel right there, and I’ll just, I’ll, when I get out of the pool, like, here comes up the towel. Because I want to spare my kids looking out the window and seeing Bofa. I don’t want them to visit Bofa either. Because they, that’s happened a few times, and they, they gave me some constructive feedback on, uh, that not happening. Dad, I want to visit Bofa. Might have been destructive. Yeah, they were trying to destroy that practice. Yeah, I’m telling you, that’s funny. Well, they’d have had a hard time because you know when me and T. C. was growing up, Daddy would, Daddy would just walk around in just his boxer shorts, and then sometimes he didn’t have none on, he didn’t act like it was nothing, so I reckon I just got, that’s where I got it from, he said, you know, teaching the birds and bees without even having to talk to you. But seriously, have you, have you ever been to Bofa though? Um, I’ve been to not both of my, I’ve been to both of my notes. Okay. Yeah. I thought I wanted to see if I could turn around, turn it around and eat that quickly, but all right, you got me. I didn’t get you. All right. I’ll try again later.

It’s time for another edition of I’ll Help You Get Out of the Woods. And we got one from Melissa. And, um, after I got this question and before she emailed it, I thought, hmm, I don’t know if she ought to be asking me to, she might not have just been asking you this question, but anyway, Melissa says, Hey Charles, can you help me break up with my boyfriend? She says, let him down easy, but, but not too easy. I put it, I put up with a lot of crap. And his name is Daniel. Yes, Dad. I’m for this. Let him have it. So, Daniel, looks like and sounds like that you’ve really pissed in Melissa’s cornflakes one too many times. And I don’t know what you’ve done, but here’s what’s gonna happen. You, you’re not gonna be able to call me anymore. And I don’t want anything else to do with you. But the main reason I don’t want anything else to do with you, because some of the way you’ve been treating me and the things that you’ve been doing to me, and I know there’s somebody out there that’s going to be a lot nicer to me. And. and just me and them get along a lot better. So it’s just better that we just part ways and you go your way and I’m gonna go mine because I’m not gonna put up with your crap anymore, Daniel. So this is goodbye, good riddance, and hasta la vista. That’s very clear, dad. Except for the fact that, like, very early on, I think you became Melissa. Well, that’s what I was trying to do, let him see that I Either that or you’re also dating Daniel. Uh, what’s happening here? This is not me sitting here, Daniel. This is Melissa sitting here. Okay. Telling you goodbye. I was just trying to I got it. I, Daniel, accept my resignation. See, I’m being, I’m being Daniel right now. I’m sorry, but I understand that you put up with a lot of my crap, Melissa, and I accept my resignation. I wish you the best in life. And I think you’ve making a good decision. And, um, I plan to grow as a person. And when I, when I see you in the super Walmart in the future, I want to just be able to say, for everything. I’m cheering for you and your life without me in it. And I’m, and I’m cheering for you too. And I’m Daniel. And I’m Melissa. So. All right. And I’m Daniel. Okay. Uh, Daniel, I hope, I hope we didn’t let you down. I hope I or Melissa didn’t let you down too bad, but. Who? What? Hold on now. Who are you? Right now, who are you? And I’m, I’m Melissa. What? You’re still Melissa. I’m still Melissa. Right now. Okay. Go ahead. But, uh, I hope, I hope it won’t too hard on you, but. Well, it hurt my feelings. It’s just the way life is. And I’m Link, you know, I’m just saying. I’m not even a party to this, and it hurt my feelings. I can only imagine what Daniel thinks. My feelings were hurt too, and I’m Daniel. Well, too bad, and I’m Charles again, and I hate your feelings was hurt, but you know, you ought to done better to start with. All right, I, that’s funny, and I’m, I’m Link again. That was good. It’s time for, can I pronounce these words? Let’s see if I follow, fail. I got one, I got one from Tony and said, we’d love to hear you hear how you say these words. Okay. Yes. Oh, now these are, oh, he’s got, we’re in the, we’re in the realm of pop culture today. Pops pronounces pop culture. Musicians. Musician names, okay? Okay. Dad, see how you can pronounce these musician names. Charlie XCX. I think, is that right? I don’t know how to say Charlie’s last name. XCX. Alright, 100 percent Dad. So, what kind of, Charlie XCX, what kind of music does he play? Um. Well, she, she, Oh, yes. Yeah. It’s, um, it’s pop. Okay. It’s, it’s, um, it’s, uh, there’s something to do with brat. I know that. I think that may be the name of the album, but it’s also a vibe. Something. Okay. I think it’s a vibe. Um, you know, I don’t really know, dad. I’ve tried it. I ain’t going to put you on the spot. I should know. I’m a D I, I am, uh, uh, an unprofessional. aspiring DJ. I should know, I should know more about the world of Brat, but I don’t. Oh yeah. I know about Brats, but I don’t know if that’s kind of music or not. But anyway. I know she has underwear with, um, like a bow on the back of it. I know that. Hmm. Hmm. You do know a little bit more. You know a lot more about it than I do. Okay. Okay. Chapelle wrong. That, that’s not a bad, that’s not a bad guess. Um, but that’s wrong. So if you were to go a different direction, what would it be? Chaperone. There you go. It only took two tries with that. Chaperone. Very, very big on the music scene these days. Another pop star. Okay. You might, you might, it’s very energetic. You might, you might like her music. But if you meet her in public, don’t be weird. Okay. If you see her, don’t be like, do you know who I am? She just, she has boundaries. Okay. You know, she doesn’t, she doesn’t like that. Okay. Yeah, okay. Now, I didn’t know this next one, so, alright. Magoas. Okay, yeah. Give it another shot. Magos. What? Magos. What’s the first way you said it? Okay. Um, do you know the, uh, the Spanish word for friends is what? If it’s a Spanish word for friend, what would that be? Don’t, don’t try to read the thing. Just answer my question. What is the Spanish word for friend? Uh, I don’t know. Hola, friend. Hola. Hola. Uh, amigo. Amigo. Amigo. So this is just Migos. That’s right. Migos. That’s right. Okay. And um, One of them I’m acquainted with this is a this is a very, uh, famous rap group out of Atlanta. One of them sadly has passed away as a result of gun violence. Uh, the other two have, uh, they were all related. They’re all like cousins and then they, they kind of had the other two surviving members kind of had a, a parting of ways. Quavo and Offset are not. Really on speaking terms. It’s kind of sad. Yeah. I’m a fan of them all, but, but Quavo and I had a, had a quality conversation about pillows one time. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay. All right. Two more. Okay. Uh, Dua Lipa. Very close, alright. Put in a little jump in it. Well, a big jump, I would say. Ducalipa! No, you had the first part right, but in the second part, make it like a big jump. What’s a big jump called? A big jump, um It could be a faith. Uh, you got me on that one again, Link. Like a frog. If, if you jump over, leap, leap. There you go. So put that together. Do a leaper. There it is. Yes, yes. And let tell you, she’s in every way better than a frog any, any way you would judge her against a frog. She’s better. Okay. Like she’s less slimy. She can sing better. She’s, I mean, well I don’t know if, I don’t know body to body to jump ratio. I don’t know if she’s better at that, but, um. She seems to be a, I don’t know anything about her personally, but I, I hope she’s a wonderful person because, uh, I really, I, I, I really like her. I just really like her dad and I, and I don’t, and I want to know that she’s a, that she’s a wonderful person. I hope that’s true of her. And Dua Lipa, we’re giving you a shout out from Dispatches from Myrtle Beach, from Charles Neal, cause Link likes good person. You’ll be a good person now. Yeah. Cause we have high hopes for you. All right, last one. Okay. The last one I got is ASAP Rocky. ASAP Rocky, asap. Rocky, uh, no, it’s not far off. It’s just that you added an A where one didn’t belong. Maybe you’ll figure out how to pronounce his name correctly. SAP Rocky before he comes out with his album, he keeps pushing it. Dad. We’re gonna wait forever for you to learn how to pronounce his name and for him to release an album. A S A P, but the S is a dollar sign. Don’t worry about that. A S A P, how would you say that? Apple Rocky. Apple? You’re really taking liberties with A S A P. There’s no Apple. No, I mean, Ap rocky. Well, you can still say the S. Oh, you can? Yeah. Asap. Asap rocky. Asap rocky. I think that could work, actually. Would he accept that? Maybe. ASAP. Ah. ASAP Rocky. Uh, I wanna, ASAP, if I want something ASAP, how do you normally say that? ASAP. That’s right. That’s it. It’s that simple. It was right there in front of you the whole time. Put it together. ASAP Rocky. Alright. Okay. There it is. There it is. Is married to Rihanna. Oh my goodness. And some people call her Rihanna. They have, they have at least one baby together. What a wonderful looking baby. I bet. I mean, how could it not be a wonderful looking baby with that? With those type of parents. You’re an, is that, does that make me old when I say things like that? That sounds like an old person. I don’t know what he looks like. He’s a, he’s model material. Oh, okay. He’s like a fashion model rapper. Okay, all right. I don’t think you’re going to spend another ounce of thought about this once we’re done with it. Yeah. You will not, you will not be bothered. And I respect that. We’re not gonna bother you. No, I’m not. I mean, I don’t know. But we’ll see. I don’t know. But, uh, Do you love bad bitches?

My Logan, meaning my producer Logan. That would be, that would be correct, because boy, gee, you, if she was down here, I’d carry her to Logan’s and buy her a steak. Yes, I would. What’s this place like? It’s, it’s just a nice, it’s just a nice steakhouse where you can go, you can get steak and you can get all, you know, different kinds of pork chops and ribs and all kind of different kind of stuff. But it’s a, you can get a good steak at this place. It’s a chain, isn’t it? Yes. Yeah, it’s a chain. Okay. There ain’t nothing wrong with it being a chain. That’s fine. No. If it wasn’t for change, we wouldn’t have a whole lot of places to eat, wouldn’t we? There you go. Yeah, yeah. That’s, that’s right. That’s right. So no, that would be correct. Yes, Dad. I’m sorry. That would be correct. If it wasn’t for change, we wouldn’t have nearly as many places to eat. Don’t be knocking on a chain now.
