Skyler Black and Bobby Durrell, the B-Team Morning Show is on the air, brought to you by Stripes and Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and OutKast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Deep Purple, woman from Tokyo. (07:24) The Morning Show, Skylar Black, and Bobby Durrell, Wednesday. Already. Weeks, I feel like I say the week's flying by, but I'm thinking here in my mind, is it really only Wednesday? Speaker 3 (07:36) Yeah, it's Wednesday. Oh, man, we've got to do this two more days. Man. That's the way it works, because of math. (07:48) Yeah, Thursday and Friday would be two more days. I can count, Bobby. Okay, good. Speaker 2 (07:54) All right. Yeah, this came out of right here in Okaloosa County. Last night, an Okaloosa County man lost $10,000 due to a phone scam over the weekend. Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office says the scammer impersonated a captain with the Sheriff's Office. (08:13) The victim was told he had to pay the money immediately for having multiple outstanding warrants. If there's any sense of urgency, you're advised to hang up. We also know that these scammers tend to target elderly individuals. Ashley Bailey, crime prevention manager with OCSO, said we've had a lot of people that have actually been business people that have fallen for this scam. (08:41) So this scam isn't one of those that is just senior citizen specific, though they tend to be targeted more. She says they've had victims in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. The latest string of phone scams in Okaloosa County mimics law enforcement demanding payment right then and there. Now, if you don't have cash, then they'll start asking for things like gift cards or crypto or any other ridiculous Apple Pay type of transactions. (09:16) And yeah, Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office says, just hang up on them. Hang up on them. Don't give them anything. Yeah, they say if you're the least bit suspicious about these phone calls you receive, please call law enforcement because they'll be straight with you about it, according to Sheriff Aiden. Speaker 3 (09:38) Yeah, because they'd rather have the $10,000. Speaker 2 (09:39) That's right! And that non-emergency number for the Sheriff's Office is 850-651-7400. So if you encounter one of those phone calls, give them a call, tell them what happened, and by all means, please do not give anyone bank information or credit card numbers or anything over the phone like that. So, anyway, just wanted to pass that along. (10:06) You hear these stories, you think, why would anyone fall for that? But it's happening, and it's happening to not just octogenarians, Bobby. Speaker 3 (10:15) It seems like it's happening a little more across the board, some younger generations, too. Speaker 2 (10:19) All right, let's take a break. 7.25 is the time. Ask Uncle Bobby coming up around 7.45. On the way, Triumph, Boston, Skinnerd, and more in the second half of the 7 o'clock hour right here on 100.3 KROQ. (10:37) Team morning show sunshine in Fort Walton right now and 46 degrees a high today of 62 We'll check your forecast and local news here in the next 15 minutes Bobby some good news to pass along this morning Vice president JD Vance and his wife second lady Usha are expecting a son in late July. Speaker 3 (10:59) Oh Speaker 2 (11:00) The couple will be expecting their fourth child and join their other three young kids. Vance and his wife said in a post that both mother and baby were doing quite well. That's exciting, you got a new... Speaker 3 (11:14) I think that's his first pregnancy in the vice presidency in a while. Speaker 2 (11:20) I was going to say, like, you know, because we've had nothing but old guys. Yeah. And our last vice president was an old lady. Yeah, true. (11:28) So, yeah, a little bit of youth isn't necessarily a bad thing, is it? Also, some nice news to pass along this morning. Forrest Tinklepaw Jr., better known as Joey the Jeweler up in Crestview, was selected as Crestview's 2026 Citizen of the Year. So congratulations, Joey. (11:51) He was recognized for his long-standing commitment to the community through service, generosity, and involvement. The honor was announced last week during a ceremony held before the Crestview City Council meeting attended by dozens of residents. Now, Joey the Jeweler has been a long-time Main Street business owner and is well-known for his support of local nonprofits, schools, clubs, and community events with contributions ranging from supporting youth activities to helping families in need. So, Joey the Jeweler, well-deserved, and congratulations. Speaker 3 (12:24) Yeah, congratulations, Joey. So, that's pretty cool. Speaker 2 (12:26) Alright, what else is pretty cool is getting advice from a guy you shouldn't take it from. And we do it every morning. That's right. Ask Uncle Bobby, coming up here in less than ten minutes. (12:39) Stay with us, right here on the B-Team Morning Show. Skyler Black and Bobby Durell, brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach on 100.3 KROQ. You know, Bobby, there is just something about Bon Jovi in the morning that just brings out the best in people. Speaker 3 (13:07) Mm-hmm. Speaker 2 (13:07) Yeah. It's nice to hear him. Tay, we're talking to you. I am not. (13:16) I'm keeping my mouth shut. Tay, I'm talking to you. It's the B-Team Morning Show, brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. But, it's 745, and that means it's time to turn to Bob Stradamus. (13:37) It's ask uncle Bobby daily advice. Speaker 3 (13:40) You didn't know you need it all stitched together by Tomcat custom apparel That's right Tomcat custom apparel reminding you one brand many layers That way you can face this unpredictable weather and still be branded. Speaker 2 (13:53) Ah All right well Bobby today you hear from human static generator we need to work on these names and Look, these are what people are calling themselves. I know, I know, I know. Okay. Alright, Dear Uncle Bobby, My social life feels routine and predictable and I want to bring more excitement into my gatherings without making things awkward. (14:19) What should I do? Speaker 3 (14:21) Listen, alright, you don't have a boring social life. No, see what you have is an underpowered one. You know, and like any underpowered system, it just needs a jolt strong enough to, well, make the lights flicker and the neighbors reconsider their choices. Look, you'll want more excitement without making things awkward. (14:42) But you need to understand what you're asking for. You are requesting fireworks with no smoke, thunder with no noise, and chaos that politely sends a thank you note afterward. Look, you got to start treating every normal hangout like it's opening night. Dinner's not dinner, it's ceremony. (15:07) You arrive with a printed agenda nobody asked for, a theme nobody agreed to, and a mysterious prop in a velvet bag that you refuse to explain until dessert. Then you introduce tradition. Not a cute one, a bewildering one. You know, every time someone says something safe, like, uh, work has been busy, you ring a bell and declare a mandatory 30-second standing ovation for their survival. (15:35) You know, like you're running a motivational cult with appetizers. Now, at some point, you've got to stage a surprise performance. I mean, you know, like a dramatic reading of the group chat from last month, maybe a choreographed walk to the kitchen, a fake awards ceremony where you hand out trophies for categories like most likely to leave early and still pretend they had fun. See, if anyone looks uncomfortable, this is perfect. (16:08) Alright? That's the sound of reality stretching. You gotta keep your posture tall, your voice calm, and your confidence radioactive, because awkwardness, well it's just excitement that has not been marked correctly. Okay? (16:25) By the end of the night, nobody will describe your gatherings as routine again. They'll either become loyal disciples of the chaos, or they'll mysteriously stop being available, which is also a win, because dead weight has no place Speaker 2 (16:40) in a high voltage lifestyle. Well said. All right. Human Static Generator. (16:49) That is a different name. Speaker 3 (16:50) That one's out there. Speaker 2 (16:51) Y'all gotta come up with something better. I agree with you, Uncle Bobby. Alright, you got a question for tomorrow or Friday, email it in Bobby at omnibroadcastingllc.com. We do this each and every morning right around 745 and it's stitched together by the folks that just keep on paying. Speaker 3 (17:10) That's right. By Tomcat Custom Apparel. Remember, go by, talk to them about layers, because, well, we need them to pay their bill. Speaker 2 (17:18) Yeah, well, they're paying in hypotheticals, Bobby. Doesn't that work? Speaker 3 (17:24) That's right. That's right. And when you see Tom or Cat, just tell them that Bobby and Skylar said, time to pay. It's time to pay. Speaker 2 (17:33) Let us know how it turns out, would you? News is next. Omni Broadcasting News this hour is brought to you by McCaskill & Company, Pink Floyd? Brain damage. (17:47) Wednesday morning, it's the B-Team Morning Show, brought to you by our friends at Okaloosa Gas, Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, and OutKast Sushi in Miramar Beach. By the way, Stripes is going to be a great spot to catch the NFC and AFC Championship game this weekend on Sunday, New England and Denver from Mile High, and Sunday night, the Rams on the road in Seattle. So, winners of both Those games move on to that big game that they play on the second Sunday of February every year. What do they call that? (18:24) The big bowl? I don't know. The fancy bowl? The grand bowl? (18:29) The amazing bowl? The terrible halftime show bowl? The ultimate bowl? They picked up another dumb halftime show this year, I think. (18:39) I don't remember who it was, but I think it was one that we both rolled our eyes about. Speaker 3 (18:43) Yeah, I don't remember either. I just know that they're doing a Charlie Kirk thing. Turning Point's doing a halftime show that I'll probably tune into. Speaker 2 (18:51) Oh, they are. I forgot about that. Because normal America doesn't want to watch the stupid Super Bowl halftime show. All right, coming up here in the final hour this morning, a few more stories to get to. (19:07) Apparently Americans are quietly giving up on haggling on purchases, where bargaining used to be normal, like buying a car. Research from Indiana University found that 95% of U.S. adults don't even try to negotiate unless the potential savings feel huge. On average, people said a discount needs to be 20% to 35% before it feels worth the awkwardness or effort. I'm sorry, but if you're spending $50,000 on a vehicle and you're not asking for even $2,500, $3,000. (19:49) You're telling me it needs to be at least $10,000 before you think it's worth it? Speaker 3 (19:53) Yeah, that's where I think speaking in percentages is goofy, but I'm also of the opinion it's either worth it to me or it's not. I mean, I'm not going to teach you out of it. Whatever. I'll let it sit there. Speaker 2 (20:09) I don't have to buy it. Right. So, the hesitation of bargaining works in retailers' favor. Researchers say businesses can raise prices 5 to 11 percent, and more than half of customers will still pay without pushing back. (20:25) Experts point to several reasons for the shift. More fixed online pricing, salespeople who don't have authority to cut deals, less confidence standing up to big companies, and a culture that values speed over back-and-forth conversations. Negotiation experts say there's also a mindset change happening. Hagling takes patience and optimism, the belief that a better deal is possible. (20:50) When people feel rushed, worn down, or pessimistic, they're far less likely to try. The fact that you've got Carvana now and you've got all these online car dealers, you can't bargain with the website. Speaker 3 (21:07) Right. And the fact of the matter is those places have exploded because I don't care what it is, man. And I know we just bought a new car for Kathy. I never walk away from a purchase of a car not feeling like I didn't get screwed. (21:27) It always hurts if I buy it from an individual. I feel I feel all right with it, but going to a lot I mean, there's just a stigma around the lots. I mean You're just getting screwed somehow, right? They're doing something. (21:41) I don't know what it is, but there I mean and I've And prior purchases, I have researched and researched and dug and walked away and got a price that a few thousand under and asked too low and there's no way they'd ever do that and blah, blah, blah and got there. then still walk out going, I got screwed. Speaker 2 (22:07) That's tough. That's tough. And it's like, you may love the vehicle, you may love everything about it, you may feel like you got a good deal, but you always leave there with a lump in your throat and just almost a... A bit of buyer's remorse. (22:22) Yep. Immediately. Yep. Speaker 3 (22:25) Well, I mean, as soon as you drive the vehicle off the lot, it's already depreciated so much, it's... Exactly. It's not worth it. Speaker 2 (22:33) So unless you can make a sizable, at least 10% down payment on a new vehicle, you're in the hole from the get-go. Speaker 3 (22:40) That's right. That's right. You know, buying a car is kind of like being an SEC fan and seeing a preseason poll. You feel really great about it until the first matchup, and then you realize it was all just hype. (22:58) That's a funny analogy. Speaker 2 (23:01) That's a funny analogy, Bobby. Am I wrong? Speaker 3 (23:03) Undefeated in hypotheticals. Yeah, we were preseason number one. Speaker 2 (23:09) Where are you now? Speaker 3 (23:10) 37th. Speaker 2 (23:11) I remember seeing a Twitter page. Alabama just beat preseason number 13, South Carolina. South Carolina was four and eight, right? Van Halen on 100.3 K rock Morning show brought to you by Our friends at Okaloosa Gas, Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach.

What Martinez did is she allegedly threw a 25-pound weight plate toward the head of another woman she believed was romantically involved with her partner. Well, there you go. (24:25) Aha! Things got a little bit wild. Staff and bystanders stepped in and stopped the situation before anyone was seriously hurt. Martinez even threatened the woman beforehand, saying words to the effect of, Bitch, I'm gonna drop this plate on you. (24:41) Well, there you go. The victim managed to move out of the way and escaped injury before the attack. Martinez was arrested the next day and booked into the Harris County Jail. point yeah yes so unfair she's a little i think she will spice but i think that this is a little spicy martinez was arrested the next day and booked into the harris county jail on a felony aggravated assault with the deadly weapon yeah using uh...

(26:58) Investigators say they seized more than 20 kilos of cocaine, cash, a handgun, and his boat. He's now facing multiple felony drug trafficking charges and is being held without bond as prosecutors move forward. Speaker 3 (27:14) So, yeah. Speaker 2 (27:15) That little side gig going I guess. What's wrong with his side hustle? Speaker 3 (27:21) I don't see what's wrong. That's right. I'm not understanding. Trying to pay off debt. Speaker 2 (27:28) All right, stick tight.
