You bring your toppings, I'll bring mine. I'll open up

00:00:34.030 --> 00:00:36.229
a best bottle of wine. We'll have a party while

00:00:36.250 --> 00:00:38.890
we're down in some quality time with you. We're gonna

8
00:00:38.950 --> 00:00:41.369

9
00:00:42.229 --> 00:00:44.340
Today is National Sausage Pizza Day.

10
00:00:44.979 --> 00:00:45.539
Woo-hoo!

11
00:00:46.149 --> 00:00:48.789
I mean, sure, pepperoni is the number one pizza topping,

12
00:00:49.189 --> 00:00:52.090
but sausage is number two. So today, go number two

13
00:00:52.130 --> 00:00:54.509
and celebrate. Ah, there are some deals today, but you're

14
00:00:54.530 --> 00:00:56.090
going to have to go local. No national deals.

15
00:00:56.649 --> 00:00:56.909
You know what?

16
00:00:56.939 --> 00:00:58.799
Today might be a fun day or night to actually

17
00:00:58.810 --> 00:01:01.899
make your own pizza. Yep, just include some sausage. Let's

18
00:01:01.939 --> 00:01:04.060
see what happened to entertainment on October 11th. It was

19
00:01:04.099 --> 00:01:09.180
back to 2021. Sincerely Control by Young Boy Never Broke Again.

20
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.200
That was the number one album. The Kid LAROI and

21
00:01:12.260 --> 00:01:14.079
Justin Bieber had their number one song was Stay.

22
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:17.439
I do the same thing I told you that I

23
00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:17.840
never would.

24
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.280
I told you I'd change even when I knew I

25
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:20.879
never could.

26
00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:23.319
I know that I can't find nobody else as good

27
00:01:23.379 --> 00:01:25.219
as you. I need you to stay. I need you

28
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:25.780
to stay.

29
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:29.409
I get drunk, wake up, I'm wasted still.

30
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:32.250
I realize it's time that I wasted.

31
00:01:32.329 --> 00:01:35.650
I feel like you can't feel the way I feel.

32
00:01:36.590 --> 00:01:37.489
If you can't be right.

33
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:41.319
Walker Hayes had the number one country song with Fancy Like.

34
00:01:42.079 --> 00:02:09.889
Fancy Like. The number one selling book was Apples Never

35
00:02:09.949 --> 00:02:14.990
Fall by Leon Mariotti. The top movie was Halloween Kills. Now,

36
00:02:15.030 --> 00:02:18.009
people who survived Michael Myers, yeah, they all joined together

37
00:02:18.050 --> 00:02:21.090
to take him out. Stars Jamie Lee Curtis. Now, the

38
00:02:21.129 --> 00:02:24.009
very first Halloween back in 1978, yeah, that was Jamie

39
00:02:24.030 --> 00:02:26.469
Lee's first movie. Now, here she is in 2021, finally

40
00:02:26.509 --> 00:02:32.240
going after Michael. 1975, Saturday Night Live debut. George Carlin,

41
00:02:32.250 --> 00:02:34.840
he was the first guest host. Now, Billy Preston, he's

42
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:37.620
a nothing from nothing. Yeah, Janice Ian comes singing on

43
00:02:37.659 --> 00:02:40.539
stage with him. No idea who Janice Ian is. All right,

44
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:44.240
what happened on October the 11th? 1910, Teddy Roosevelt became

45
00:02:44.259 --> 00:02:47.150
the first president to ride in an airplane. Well, kind of.

46
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:49.300
He wasn't president anymore. He had gotten out of office

47
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:51.439
about a year before. But it sounds cool. We really

48
00:02:51.469 --> 00:02:54.009
don't have a lot to talk about today. But Teddy's

49
00:02:54.069 --> 00:02:57.150
sixth cousin, though, Franklin Roosevelt, yeah, he was president when

50
00:02:57.169 --> 00:03:00.110
he got a ride in the airplane in the 1930s. 1919,

51
00:03:00.259 --> 00:03:02.599
meals were served on an airplane for the first time.

52
00:03:02.740 --> 00:03:05.620
It was on a flight from London to Paris. Passengers,

53
00:03:05.780 --> 00:03:07.560
they got a box of cold fried chicken and a

54
00:03:07.580 --> 00:03:12.439
fruit salad. 1922, Alaska Davidson, she became the first female

55
00:03:12.539 --> 00:03:16.590
FBI agent. But then J. Edgar Hoover took over the FBI.

56
00:03:16.689 --> 00:03:19.069
He didn't like girls in the FBI. So he got

57
00:03:19.129 --> 00:03:20.969
rid of Alaska and two other women who had become

58
00:03:21.069 --> 00:03:23.349
FBI agents. So from 1926 to 1972, absolutely no female

59
00:03:23.370 --> 00:03:31.710
FBI agents. 1929, JCPenney's, they opened a store in Milford, Delaware.

60
00:03:32.449 --> 00:03:36.210
That meant they had at least one JCPenney in every state. Yep,

61
00:03:36.349 --> 00:03:39.710
all 48 of them. Now, you've probably seen in old

62
00:03:39.770 --> 00:03:42.389
movies and TV shows and stuff where they use those

63
00:03:42.430 --> 00:03:47.469
hand-cranked telephones. 1983, it was the last hand-cranked telephones went

64
00:03:47.509 --> 00:03:52.300
out of service. That's right. 440 telephone customers in Bryant-Pond, Maine,

65
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.020
they were still using those hand-cranked things. Yeah, sister over

66
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.860
to direct dial phones today. Total end of the era.

67
00:03:58.930 --> 00:04:02.090
The Soviets, they'd done it twice before, but in 1984,

68
00:04:02.090 --> 00:04:05.419
Catherine Sullivan, she became the first American woman astronaut, yeah,

69
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:07.639
to do a spacewalk. She was out there about three

70
00:04:07.659 --> 00:04:09.539
and a half hours, and she finally agreed to come

71
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:29.199
in and do the dishes, so they let her back in. Go! Okay,

72
00:04:29.220 --> 00:04:32.000
let's see who was born on October the 11th. Actress

73
00:04:32.019 --> 00:04:35.990
Jean Vanderpile. She was born in Philadelphia in 1919. Who

74
00:04:36.050 --> 00:04:38.750
is Jean? Well, more of a voice actress, actually. She

75
00:04:38.790 --> 00:04:41.550
was the original voice of Wilma Flintstone. Then she was

76
00:04:41.610 --> 00:04:44.910
Pebbles Flintstone. She was Rosie the Robot on the Jetsons. Yeah,

77
00:04:44.949 --> 00:04:46.970
she was in a whole bunch of things. Now, the

78
00:04:46.990 --> 00:04:50.370
last time she voiced Wilma was 1996. She was married

79
00:04:50.389 --> 00:04:52.149
to her first husband for 23 years, and they had

80
00:04:52.170 --> 00:04:55.189
three kids. He died. Married her second husband for 29 years,

81
00:04:55.230 --> 00:04:57.339
and they had one kid, and he died. Jane, she

82
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.029
died in 1999 from lung cancer at 79 years old.

83
00:05:20.060 --> 00:05:23.379
That's country singer Dottie West. She was born in Frog Pond,

84
00:05:23.459 --> 00:05:27.339
Tennessee in 1932. Now, her maiden name was actually Marsh.

85
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:31.439
That's right. Born in Frog Pond. Yeah, I'm serious. Now,

86
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.980
Frog Pond is about 45 minutes west of Nashville. Dottie,

87
00:05:35.019 --> 00:05:38.060
she was the first female country artist to win a Grammy, 1968.

88
00:05:38.060 --> 00:05:42.290
Some of Dottie's number one songs were Lesson in Leavin',

89
00:05:42.579 --> 00:05:45.040
Are You Happy, Baby?, What Are We Doin' in Love? Now,

90
00:05:45.060 --> 00:05:47.910
that was with Kenny Rogers. Now, Dottie and Kenny, they

91
00:05:47.930 --> 00:05:49.870
had a lot of hit songs together in the late 70s,

92
00:05:49.910 --> 00:05:52.889
early 80s. Now, her first husband, he was Bill West,

93
00:05:53.310 --> 00:05:55.720
and they had four children. Then one of them is

94
00:05:55.740 --> 00:05:58.740
country singer Shelly West. Now, after Bill and her divorce,

95
00:05:58.779 --> 00:06:02.220
she divorced two more times. Dottie, she died in 1991.

96
00:06:02.220 --> 00:06:03.779
She was on her way to perform at the Grand

97
00:06:03.819 --> 00:06:05.939
Ole Opry. Yeah, she was killed in a car wreck,

98
00:06:05.939 --> 00:06:27.540
58 years old. Just like a fool, I vomited. Country

99
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:32.949
singer Gene Watson's 83. He was born in 1943 in Palestine, Texas.

100
00:06:33.589 --> 00:06:37.069
He was raised in Paris, Texas. Yeah, he still tours. Yeah,

101
00:06:37.089 --> 00:06:38.889
and he even lets out some new music here and there.

102
00:06:39.430 --> 00:06:41.269
He has shows scheduled all the way through next year.

103
00:06:41.829 --> 00:06:43.829
So I think the first time you could probably see

104
00:06:43.870 --> 00:06:48.519
him would be in 2027. Now, let's see, some of

105
00:06:48.569 --> 00:06:51.680
his biggest hits would probably be Paper Rosie, 14 Carat Mind,

106
00:06:52.300 --> 00:06:54.800
Shall I Come Home or Just Go Crazy, What You

107
00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:57.379
Don't Know Won't Hurt Her. Now, the band that backs

108
00:06:57.459 --> 00:06:58.920
up Gene, they've been with him since 1982. He married

109
00:06:58.939 --> 00:07:00.819
in 1961, and they have one son and one daughter.

110
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:07.139
You're a rich girl and you're going too far cause

111
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:11.620
you know it don't matter anyway. You can rely on

112
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:14.790
the old man's money. You can rely on the.

113
00:07:14.810 --> 00:07:15.750
Old man's money.

114
00:07:15.850 --> 00:07:18.949
It's a bitch girl, but it's gone too far cause

115
00:07:18.970 --> 00:07:23.810
you know it don't matter anyway. Say money, money won't

116
00:07:23.870 --> 00:07:26.129
get you too far, get you too far.

117
00:07:27.129 --> 00:07:30.269
Now the half of Hall and Oates that sang, Daryl Hall,

118
00:07:30.389 --> 00:07:34.629
he's 80. He was born in Pottstown, Pennsylvania in 1946.

119
00:07:34.629 --> 00:07:37.550
He got together with John Oates in 1970. They are

120
00:07:37.569 --> 00:07:40.740
the number one duo in music history. Sold over 80

121
00:07:40.740 --> 00:07:43.740
million records. Some of their number one songs are Rich Girl,

122
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.779
Kiss on My List, Private Eyes, I Can't Go for That,

123
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:49.519
No Can Do. Now they broke up for good last year.

124
00:07:49.980 --> 00:07:51.699
So Daryl, he's got an album out. I think he

125
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:53.600
released it at the end of last year. But he's

126
00:07:53.660 --> 00:07:56.740
out touring and he's doing solo stuff now. I know

127
00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:58.250
he's coming to Denver on November 4th.

128
00:07:58.379 --> 00:07:58.639
You know what?

129
00:07:59.259 --> 00:08:01.000
I saw him in Oats like 40 years ago, so

130
00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.319
I think I'm good. Now, Daryl, he had a son

131
00:08:03.339 --> 00:08:05.120
from a really fun time, and then he divorced two

132
00:08:05.139 --> 00:08:09.160
women after that. Actress Joan Cusack is 64. She was

133
00:08:09.180 --> 00:08:12.079
born in New York City in 1962. She was raised

134
00:08:12.170 --> 00:08:16.149
in Evanston, Illinois, with her older sister, actress Ann Cusack,

135
00:08:16.209 --> 00:08:19.490
and her younger brother, John Cusack. Now, John and Joan,

136
00:08:19.509 --> 00:08:21.529
they've actually been in 10 movies together. Some of those

137
00:08:21.569 --> 00:08:26.269
are Class, 16 Candles, Say Anything, Gross Point Blank. Now, Joan,

138
00:08:26.329 --> 00:08:29.050
she's been nominated for two Oscars. for Working Girl and

139
00:08:29.069 --> 00:08:31.889
then In-N-Out. She got married in 1996 and they have

140
00:08:31.930 --> 00:08:36.169
two sons. Actor Luke Perry was born in Mansfield, Ohio

141
00:08:36.190 --> 00:08:39.090
in 1966. Best known for playing Dylan on the TV

142
00:08:39.110 --> 00:08:42.320
show Beverly Hills 90210. I guess he was on Riverside

143
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:45.120
after that. Some of his movies were Eight Seconds, The

144
00:08:45.139 --> 00:08:47.899
Fifth Element, The Heist. He had a son and a

145
00:08:47.940 --> 00:08:51.320
daughter from his first wife. They divorced after 10 years.

146
00:08:51.480 --> 00:08:54.779
And then his son, he's actually a professional wrestler. He

147
00:08:54.820 --> 00:08:57.389
goes by the name Jungle Boy. Now, Luke, he was

148
00:08:57.429 --> 00:08:59.750
engaged when he died in 2018 from a stroke. He's

00:09:27.769 --> 00:09:29.610
That was rapper Cardi B.

158
00:09:29.690 --> 00:09:30.129
She's 34.

159
00:09:30.110 --> 00:09:32.610
She was born in Manhattan, New York.

160
00:09:32.610 --> 00:09:37.879
Cardi B, that.

161
00:09:36.370 --> 00:09:42.379
Is a take on Bacardi.

162
00:09:42.379 --> 00:09:47.639
You know the room.

163
00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:59.740
She first got known on the VH1 show Love and

164
00:09:59.779 --> 00:10:02.620
Hip Hop in New York. After two years, she left

165
00:10:02.779 --> 00:10:07.120
and sold 75 million records since then. She married rapper Offset,

166
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.450
and I think that was like 2017, and they had

167
00:10:09.470 --> 00:10:12.210
three kids. Don't say what happened to Offset, but she's

168
00:10:12.250 --> 00:10:13.769
now pregnant with a fourth kid, and that's from an

169
00:10:13.870 --> 00:10:17.950
NFL wide receiver named Stephon Diggs. So, I don't know

170
00:10:18.009 --> 00:10:20.879
what the whole story is on that one. Maybe offsets divorce.

171
00:10:20.980 --> 00:10:21.279
I don't know.

172
00:10:21.899 --> 00:10:22.200
All right.

173
00:10:22.259 --> 00:10:23.600
Our quote of the day is going to come from

174
00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:27.720
Red Fox. Here's a nice looking gentleman here. Class.

175
00:10:28.100 --> 00:10:28.500
Bougie.

176
00:10:29.700 --> 00:10:33.000
Sir, let me ask you a question. Did you ever

177
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:36.960
fight and blame it on the dog? Red, he died

178
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:40.250
today in 1991 at 68 years old. He said, I

179
00:10:40.279 --> 00:10:42.350
feel sorry for people who don't drink and do drugs.

180
00:10:42.830 --> 00:10:44.809
Someday they're going to be lying in a hospital wondering

181
00:10:44.830 --> 00:10:48.299
why they're dying. Okay. Well, thank you all for listening today.

I want to see you every chance I get But

190
00:11:10.990 --> 00:11:17.639
I'm scared that's too hard to believe I need to

191
00:11:17.700 --> 00:11:26.409
hear your heartbeat clearly Like it was always part of me.

192
00:11:27.389 --> 00:11:28.470
If you wanna take.

193
00:11:28.269 --> 00:11:31.429
It slow I need to think fast Find a better

194
00:11:31.470 --> 00:11:33.669
way of making everything lost.

195
00:11:33.330 --> 00:11:35.590
Forget about the rush Use a.

196
00:11:35.570 --> 00:11:38.370
Little time If you wanna come along Let me know

197
00:11:38.389 --> 00:11:41.529
that you're mine I've gotta let it out It's better

198
00:11:41.570 --> 00:11:44.539
than in I'm not about If I say it enough,

199
00:11:44.580 --> 00:11:50.139
maybe it will all come true. I tell myself this

200
00:11:50.659 --> 00:11:51.419
every day.

201
00:12:10.629 --> 00:12:13.460
I'm not one to make things hard, but.

202
00:12:13.220 --> 00:12:24.889
Real life's complicated. I know you think fast.

203
00:12:24.909 --> 00:12:25.909
Find a better way of.

204
00:12:25.809 --> 00:12:27.309
Making everything last.

205
00:12:27.330 --> 00:12:28.909
Forget about the rush.

206
00:12:28.970 --> 00:12:31.769
Use a little time. If you want to come along,

207
00:12:31.789 --> 00:12:34.090
let me know that you're mine. I've got to let

208
00:12:34.230 --> 00:12:37.389
it out. It's better than in. I'm not a mind

209
00:12:37.500 --> 00:12:40.879
reader when it comes to these things. If you're unsure,

210
00:12:41.340 --> 00:12:44.559
ask around. I know the answer hurts when it's lying

211
00:12:44.779 --> 00:12:45.500
on the ground, but

212
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:46.529
You've got to let it out.
