I have a question for you in just a minute here coming up about this weekend. Before we go any further, though, let's do this catch up here. We'll get I I was not here on Friday. God, can I just say for a minute? Let me just just everyone breathe for a second. So this has been we've talked about this a million times. How insanely busy right after the first week of May goes to the right now to the end of June. It is. I don't care where you are in your life. If you are like me, where you have kids in school, there are a trillion things happening, along with still sports, things like that, doctors, stuff like that. Then people start getting out and venturing and they want to wander. This past weekend we had Salem Six Hour at the Glen. Uh Dan and Alex, Heather's husband and son from Buffalo have been with us since uh Thursday evening. You've got house guests. Uh everything right now, I feel like is like okay busy. School's over. Everybody breathe for a second. Like this, this is where it's at here. I know we're staring straight down the fourth weekend. But everything it's like, oh my gosh, can we all just take one minute and go? Can we have a normal day? Just normal.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, a normal day, but you know, we got to get ready because we're we're not gonna be here on Friday.
SPEAKER_01No.
SPEAKER_00And with that being said, that means there's no birthday wheel that's gonna happen on Friday, which we usually do only Fridays, 7:30. And I thought, you know what? Scott's not here on Friday. I'm gonna get a winner this past week.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you always think that, and I'm like, nah, it's gonna happen when I'm here if it's gonna happen.
SPEAKER_00And it did not happen. I was watching that phone like a hawk. I'm like, come on, ring.
SPEAKER_01Ring, ring. Now remember, it's the day, month, and year. So this week it's gonna go on hold, but the money's gonna sit at $742. So it's just sitting right there. So I'm answering Natalie's question Hey, did you guys get a winner on the birthday wheel? No. Uh, and uh, but it it it the money's there. It's there.
SPEAKER_00Yes, and we want to give it to you thanks to Hesselsons, but we'll have to wait another week on that one.
SPEAKER_01Oh, wow. Mel Brooks turned a hundred years old yesterday. That's from our friend uh 3386 from Blazing Saddles and uh the Bean Campfire. This came up last week on the show. Yes, we were laughing about this. That that guy's a hundred, so is Dick Van Dyke.
SPEAKER_00So also there is a Mel Brooks documentary. I haven't seen this yet, but it's I think it's on Netflix. No, it's on HBO Max. And it's called Mel Brooks, the 99-year-old man, which is now the hundred-year-old man. But it's gonna have to make a sequel. I wonder if he's like holding out for that Spaceball 2 sequel.
SPEAKER_01I believe he's in it too.
SPEAKER_00Right, right. But you know how I mean not that he, I'm not saying I want him to die or that he's close to it, but you know how like certain people will hold out. Oh, sure. And I wonder if that's what he's holding out for. He's like, I gotta see the sequel.
SPEAKER_01That that could be. I mean, because I think didn't they finish and Bill Pullman's in that, isn't he? I believe so. Yeah, right up the street in Hornell.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, not John Candy.
SPEAKER_01No, no, John Candy. That would be well, maybe as a force ghost.
SPEAKER_00Or he like that. A little hologram, yes. Yes, they could AI him. Uh, then we also had this one, and this is what I love, and this is what we always encourage. Good everyone, happy Monday from Ocean City, Maryland. We always say, okay, so you're not here. You can still listen to us everywhere if you go on vacation. Just take that app with you, and you can listen on demand in real time or the Not For Air podcast.
SPEAKER_01Uh, and then we got to finish that message. I guess uh is it her daughter Maddie and her competition team are competing at Dance Nationals. Have a great day. Well, good luck to you.
SPEAKER_00Oh, good vibes for that.
SPEAKER_01This is your dancing song. It isn't very long. Do a twirl!
SPEAKER_00Wait a sec. Wait a second. Because we definitely need to do that. We have a listener who has a birthday today. We're gonna get to that here in a second. But good vibes for that. And also we have a regular listener, 3490, who's going under the knife today.
SPEAKER_01Oh boy.
SPEAKER_00Yes. It's just cataracts artery.
SPEAKER_01Oh God, that's great. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, you will be amazed. You're gonna be because I I did this, what, two years ago? Life changing. And then all of it, it's all it's all a computer that does it. Like the doctor's in there, it's all a robot. Isn't that crazy? And and I I I don't want to ruin like everything for you, but they'll give you the they'll give you the happy juice and uh in an IV. And uh if you ask for seconds, they will. And then it's the weirdest sensation because you can see light, but you can't see light. You can sense the brightness, but obviously your eyes have been folded back. Uh-huh. Oh yeah, oh yeah. Yep, yep. That along with Lydia having a tooth flopping around in the breeze. I'm I'm running, my knees are buckling.
SPEAKER_00We're gonna get to that too.
SPEAKER_01And uh so it, but then they'll put it back down. The rest of today, you won't really see much, but then tomorrow you're gonna wake up, you're gonna be like, oh my lord. It's the wildest experience.
SPEAKER_00I had because I've never had this done, but I said, I assume it's probably when I saw her yesterday, I assume it's probably like the Wizard of Oz. It goes from black and white, and then all of a sudden, once you get to the color part, then it's it's like a whole new world. And she said the doctor said it was going to be much brighter.
SPEAKER_01Yes, that's what I was gonna. I was just gonna say that. I noticed the brightness change. For me, the colors were a little more vibrant for a while. You get used to that real quick.
SPEAKER_00But I can also understand, too, being a little nervous today. Anytime you go into a surgery, I think that you just get nervous. So that's why I was like, you know, we gotta send good vibes to 3490.
SPEAKER_01That was the only time I've ever had a surgery myself when I did it. I've never had anything.
SPEAKER_00I feel like, and maybe I I'm I'm not remembering this right. I feel like I remember you being nervous about it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, because I didn't know what it was gonna be like. Also, you wonder is that robot gonna slip and all of a sudden, you know, suck your eyeball right out?
SPEAKER_00I was gonna say it, but then I was like, maybe I shouldn't.
SPEAKER_01Actually, you make the sound. Yeah, there it goes, rolling across the floor.
