Father-Daughter Walk Day: When Eight Minutes of Awkward Conversation Beats Years of Missed Calls
Description
We dragged out dive bars, chocolate alibis, and a wheelchair-bound bank robber—because when the world hands you a protein nicknamed "Mitch" that burns fat and a suspect who literally rolls away from the crime scene, you know the timeline's operating on its own chaotic frequency.

Show Notes
Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell kicked off Tuesday, July 7th on 100.3 KROCK — Fort Walton Beach's classic rock station — with a rundown of the day's most pressing calendar holidays, starting with Father-Daughter Take a Walk Together Day. Bobby's daughter is Pensacola-bound by 3 p.m., so Schuyler helpfully suggested a noon stroll — you know, right when the Emerald Coast heat index climbs toward triple digits. Nothing says paternal bonding like mutual perspiration and awkward small talk about bread. Also on the docket: Chocolate Day, which the guys noted is hilariously scheduled for the hottest month of the year (eat fast or watch your truffles melt), National Dive Bar Day (Bobby's a fan, though he's sworn off the Whiskey Barn), and Tell the Truth Day, which lawyers apparently call "Hell on Earth."
Weather-wise, expect another scorcher — 94 degrees on the beaches, heat index pushing triple digits — though early morning storms rolled through and cleared out by mid-show. Local happenings include a free kids' football camp this Saturday at Choctaw High School (ages 6–12, hosted by former Gators including Choctaw alum Aaron Diehl), and Wednesday night fireworks continuing all month long out on the Okaloosa Island pier. The B Team will also be broadcasting live this Friday morning from the Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce's First Friday Coffee Event — and yes, Ted will absolutely show up if there's a live mic involved.
In local news: six horses rescued from a Holmes County cruelty case are now recovering at Aliqua Animal Refuge in Walton County; Pensacola leaders are mulling a youth curfew after a deadly Fourth of July weekend shooting downtown (Bobby's skeptical — zero-tolerance policies "just don't work"); and Destin City Council appointed John Stevens to fill the seat vacated by former councilman Jim Bagby, marking Stevens' second interim appointment in three years. A new Federal Reserve working paper suggests illegal immigration may have driven up housing costs by 30% since 2021 (Bobby: "Isn't that like fifth-grade civics?"), and Pensacola native Mitchell Robinson just locked in a $47.4 million, three-year deal with the Boston Celtics. Not bad for a Pine Forest High alum.
Uncle Bobby dispensed his daily wisdom to the "overbooked calendar gremlin" — someone drowning in work and personal obligations who wanted permission to ghost everyone for a while. Bobby's advice? "You are not a mule. You are a fog machine with a calendar." Disappear strategically, let your absence become a weather system, and train your environment to route around you like a closed bridge. It's not abandonment, it's self-preservation. Meanwhile, construction continues on Brooks Bridge with overnight lane shifts through Thursday (9 p.m. to 5:30 a.m.), and scientists have identified a protein nicknamed "Mitch" that might someday make you immune to being fat — though Bobby's "cautiously optimistic," which is code for "I'll believe it when I see it." Shoutouts to Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and OutKast Sushi in Miramar Beach for keeping the lights on. That's a wrap — keep on rocking, keep on rolling, and never settle for the ordinary.
Transcript
(00:01) Here's today's B Team Redux. Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Roll on down the highway. On the classic rock station. 100.3 KROCK. It's the B Team Morning Show on a Tuesday, the 7th of July. (00:17) Bobby, good morning. Speaking of rolling on down the highway, it's father-daughter take a walk together day. How about that? That's a cute little calendar holiday where everybody pretends a stroke and fix what years of missed calls and unbusy texts couldn't. That's terrible. (00:37) So it's simple. You and your daughter go outside, put the phones away for eight glorious minutes and attempt conversation like two decent people sharing the same last name. You know, it's not a cure-all. It's not a confession booth and it's definitely not cardio unless you got guilt in your lungs. So still, take the walk because nothing says I'm trying like moving forward at two miles an hour with nowhere to hide but the sidewalk. (01:05) Father-daughter take a walk together day. You start that stroll and dad's first question is, so, do you like bread? Yeah. It's a bit hot outside, but I'll be by about four. (01:25) She's going to Pensacola this afternoon. You better make it before four. What time does she leave? I think she's leaving about three, so you better come over around noon. Do like a lunch hour walk or something. When it's the hottest of the day. That makes sense. It's best for you then. So we both just smell ripe. (01:41) What? You don't have a shower? Hey, coming up tomorrow night, fireworks once again out there on the pier on Okaloosa Island. They're doing fireworks every Wednesday night throughout the entire month of July. We've got the schedule for you online on the events tab at the bteamshow.com. He's Bobby Dewrell. I'm Schuyler Black. We appreciate you dialing in and spending this Tuesday morning with us on 100.3 KROCK. Here's Rush. (02:09) There's the Stones, Honky Tonk Women on the Classic Rock Station, 100.3 KROCK. Believe it or not, it's going to be another hot one here in northwest Florida today. 94 degrees on the beaches. Heat index, though, going to make it feel closer to triple digits. We'll check your full forecast here in just a little bit. Plus Dan Diamonds got local news coming up later on in the hour. Speaking of it being hot, hard to celebrate this one today. It's Chocolate Day. Oh, yeah! (02:45) It's the annual little lie we all tell ourselves where we pretend it's about love and not about mainlining sugar like it's a personality, John Holbein. Exactly. You know, everybody acts shocked that the solution to every emotional problem is a shiny box and a dopamine hit. But, you know, we didn't learn that at age seven behind a Halloween pillowcase, okay? Look, florists get their cut. (03:13) Card companies get their cut. And now cocoa farmers, well, they get a polite thank you while the rest of us negotiate how many truffles equals I'm sorry without actually saying the words. So, go ahead. Buy the chocolates. Accept the chocolates. And understand that this isn't a holiday. It's an edible alibi. (03:33) I'm so glad they picked, like, the damn hottest month of the year for Chocolate Day. Oh, that's because you've got to eat them quickly. See? Yeah. Like, if it's February Inhale. If it's February, you know, just eating one and letting it go is okay. But, see, it's July. So, you've got to eat them all or they're just going to melt into a glob. Yeah. Especially when you've got diabetes. (03:53) Eat it fast. See? People are thinking about it. See? That's all I'm saying. What are you eating today for Chocolate Day? Nothing. Those Russell Stover sugar-free pecano lights or whatever? Yeah. Hey, actually, they make toffee ones that are just like a Heath bar. And then they make some other ones that are just like a Milky Way. Are they pretty good? Yeah. I mean, you know, when that's the closest thing you get to sugar, yeah. They get the job done, huh? They get the job done. (04:17) All right. We're going to take a break, pay a couple bills. There is a kids' football camp. It's free, coming up this weekend at Choctaw High School. We'll tell you about it in just a bit on the B Team Morning Show with 100.3 KROCK. Standby for more rock. (04:33) 100.3 KROCK. Music from heart Magic Man on the Classic Rock Station, 100.3 KROCK. Good morning, everybody. Hope you're doing well. I'm Schuyler Black. He is Bobby Dewrell. It's the B Team Morning Show, brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Mentioned this in the last break, but coming up this Saturday, kids age 6 to 12, there is a free football camp for kids age 6 to 12 this Saturday, July 11th at Choctaw High School, hosted by former Gator and Choctaw alum Aaron Diehl and a group of other former Gators. (05:13) They're doing these community camps each summer, and this year it's time for Choctaw to host. The camp runs from 9 until noon this Saturday. We've got the details for you online at thebteamshow.com, so get over there and check that out. But if you've got a kiddo age 6 to 12, perfect opportunity to go out and meet some former Gators and learn some football skills this weekend. Well, Bobby, today on the National Day calendar, I have a feeling I've seen you celebrate this before. National Dive Bar Day. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The sweet little calendar live where we pretend the corner joint with the sticky floor and the heroic neon sign is a cultural institution instead of a series of questionable decisions with a jukebox. (05:57) Yeah, yeah. That's why Bobby likes to check out the Whiskey Barn. Dude, I love a good dive bar. No, Whiskey Barn is one I won't go back to. It's a salute to places where the drinks are honest, the lighting is dishonest, and the regulars know more about your hometown than your therapist ever will. (06:17) You don't celebrate it so much as you just show up, tip like you got manners, and let the bartender quietly judge your life while saving it. Call it nostalgia, call it community, maybe call it controlled burn for your dignity. (06:33) Either way, it's on the schedule, so act like you meant to be there. Yeah. Taylor's dive bar in her hometown was called The Spur. Ah, yeah. See, I miss Dosie's. That was my dive bar. Oh, you think it was a dive? I thought it was a classy place. Yeah, okay. Van Halen now on 100.3 KROCK. Judas Priest, you've got another thing coming on the Classic Rock Station. (07:01) 100.3 KROCK. Good morning, everybody. Hope you're doing well. I'm Schuyler Black. He is Bobby Dewrell. The B Team Show, of course, always brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi, and Miramar Beach. Coming up this Friday, the B Team Show is going to be live on location from the Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce's First Friday Coffee Event. (07:25) We'll be out there from 7-9 Friday morning chatting with local public leaders, non-profits, business owners, and more on all the great things happening here in our community. And, of course, I'm sure we'll have an appearance from Ted as well. So, don't miss out. (07:41) First Friday Coffee with the B Team live this Friday. What are you chuckling about? Are you kidding me? There's going to be a live microphone there. Of course, Ted's going to show up. That's like a Ted Magnet. He can't walk past it. That's kind of like my grandmother was with me. She couldn't drive past the Golden Arches making a stop. (08:01) I just think it's cute that you think there's going to be a live mic somewhere that Ted won't walk up to. Well, hey. Hey, put a camera there and he'll be stuck there for hours. I think he's running for office or something. Hey, speaking of being frank and honest about that, it is Tell the Truth Day, Bobby. Oh, yeah. Or as lawyers call it, Hell on Earth. (08:21) Yeah. Liar, liar. Tell the Truth Day is that annual little social experiment where everybody pretends honesty is a cute hobby instead of a controlled substance. The premise is simple. Say what you mean, mean what you say, and watch your relationships wobble like folding chairs at a cookout. (08:41) I don't ever have this problem. I'm so politically correct. It's not about being cruel. It's about finally admitting you hate that group chat. You don't love networking. And your five-year plan is mostly panic with a calendar. (08:57) So participate responsibly because the truth might set you free, but it'll also get you uninvited from that group chat. Yeah. Tell the Truth Day. Or you could just mysteriously silence the group chat or even leave. Oh, I just silence those damn group chats. That's what I've been doing lately. (09:13) I just can't stand it. You know what? We've got a couple group chats going on right now. I'm just going to see if that's true or not. Yeah. So hey, here you go. It's a holiday for people who lie the other 364 days and want your certificate for behaving like adults one day. (09:29) For one day. That's all you've got to behave for one day. All right. A look at local news with Dan Diamond is coming up momentarily. It's the BT Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK. Standby for more ROQ. 100.3 KROCK. (09:45) 100.3 KROCK, the classic ROQ station. You know, after that rainfall and storms pushed through a couple hours ago, it's turned out to be a pretty nice morning. Clear skies right now in South Okaloosa County. 79 degrees. (10:01) And a high today of 95. Good morning everybody. Welcome to it. The B Team Morning Show is on the air. Brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre. Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. And I'm so excited. Bobby's got a story for us. Yeah? (10:17) Oh, maybe he doesn't. I was looking forward to it, too. Maybe he's got a story that I'm supposed to read. Ah, yeah. There you go. Something like that. We've got several stories lined up to get to here this next couple of hours. (10:32) Later on in the show, of course, around 745. We will have your daily Ask Uncle Bobby feature. Get your advice coming up here in just a little while. And another temporary traffic shift is coming to Brooks Bridge this week. (10:48) We'll get you the details on that. Plus, six horses were rescued from Holmes County Cruelty Investigation. They're now recovering out in Walton County at Aliqua. And we'll get you the details on that story here in just a little while as well. (11:04) Plus, an appointed city council member was put on the Destin City Council this last week. We'll talk about that here in just a bit as well. On the way, Steely Dan, ZZ Top. And then, if Bobby wants to find anything this morning, we'll get to that, too. (11:21) Yeah, sure. Okay. Let's see. Stay with us. 12 minutes after 7 o'clock. It's a Tuesday. You're rocking with the B Team. ZZ Top this morning in Dush on the classic rock station, 100.3 KROCK. (11:37) It's 723. This is the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. How are you doing over there? I'm doing great. Couldn't be happier? (11:53) Sure. Let's go with that. Okay. Well, you nodded first before you said anything. It was kind of one of those, uh... Sure. Yeah. Sure. That's what we'll go with. Earlier this week, six horses were rescued from an animal cruelty investigation in Holmes County and are receiving medical treatment and rehab at Aliqua Animal Refuge in Walton County after authorities removed them from an unsafe and neglectful condition. (12:23) The horses arrived malnourished and suffering from a range of health issues requiring specialized veterinary care, proper nutrition, and ongoing rehab. Aliqua staff say each horse is gradually improving as they regain strength and recover in a safe environment. (12:39) While the refuge continues working with law enforcement and encourages community support to help cover the costs of their care and eventual placement into permanent homes. But, yeah, I saw some of the pictures that were online on Get the Ghosts' website and, yeah, these horses were absolutely in terrible shape. (13:00) Put it that way. Just terrible shape. So, Aliqua doing good work out there making sure that those horses are getting back to the way they should be. Also, Pensacola leaders are considering a curfew following this last weekend's chaos. (13:15) Pensacola City leaders are considering whether a youth curfew should be implemented or strengthened following a deadly downtown shooting and series of disturbances involving large groups of unsupervised juveniles during a 4th of July weekend celebration. (13:31) Officials say the violence, which left one person dead and several others injured, has prompted discussions about additional safety measures to reduce late-night disorder and protect residents and visitors. Now, while no decisions have been made, city leaders emphasize that any potential curfew would be part of a broader effort that also includes increased law enforcement, community involvement, and parental responsibility to help prevent future incidents. (13:56) And I think we all kind of know how Bobby feels about these zero-tolerance type of policies. I just don't. They don't work. They just don't work. They're not. They've never worked. (14:12) Now, increased law enforcement and parental responsibility are not necessarily bad ideas. Well, I mean, but there you go. How do you increase parental responsibility, right? Right. I mean, whatever. (14:29) I just... You can't force a parent to be engaged with their child. No, you can't. I mean, it's a problem. It's going to continue to be a problem until we address it at its root. (14:46) Right, and it's been a problem for decades. So, anyway, that was WEAR's leading story this morning on their website. So, a couple stories for you. We have several more to talk about as we work our way through this Tuesday. (15:03) We're about 20 minutes out from asking Uncle Bobby for advice and getting your way here around 745. So, stay with us. Plenty to get to on the way. Next break, KISS, Eddie Money, Supertramp, and more. (15:18) We're the BT Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK. Supertramp and the logical song on 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station. And other logical talking points. (15:35) Supply and demand kind of dictates how pricing goes, right? Generally speaking. Okay. Because a new Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas working paper says the surge in illegal immigration during the Biden administration may have contributed to higher housing costs. (15:52) Gee, you think? The preliminary study estimates that about 7 million illegals who entered the U.S. between 2021 and 2024 increased demand enough to account for roughly 30% of the rise in home prices and 20% of the increase in rent. (16:10) Researchers say home construction didn't keep up with the added demand, putting more pressure on already tight housing markets. The authors stress that the report is a preliminary working paper, still under review, and does not represent the official position of the Federal Reserve. (16:27) Put your spin on it. But the fact is that when you have more people here that aren't supposed to be here, and they have to have somewhere to live, then you're going to have less available inventory on the market, which drives up inflation and costs. (16:45) I mean, isn't that like something you learn in like fifth grade? Yeah. I think so. I think it might be fifth grade that we do civics. But that's a little more economics. I mean, at the very least, you're learning that stuff by junior high. (17:02) Just crazy. Last night, Destin City Council appointed John Stevens to fill the council seat vacated by former councilman Jim Bagby, making it the second time in three years the local business owner has been tapped for interim duty. (17:17) Now, Stevens was first appointed to the council back in January of 24 to fill the seat left by Matthew Sweetser's resignation. He ran for an elected seat that November, but finished sixth in a seven-candidate vote for five race. (17:34) So why wouldn't you appoint him? With 2,826 votes, falling 452 votes short of the fifth-place finisher, Rodney Braden. Now, Braden is a sitting councilman on Destin City Council and made the motion Monday night to appoint Stevens. (17:51) Councilwoman Sandy Trammell seconded the motion passed with five votes in favor. Councilmember Dewey Destin abstained, telling the council that Stevens is a tenant of his. So anyway, there you go. (18:06) Destin City Council has filled that vacant seat left by Jim Bagby earlier this year. Coming up here in just a little bit, your daily advice from Uncle Bobby is coming up, plus music on the way from KISS and a look at local news with Dan Diamond. (18:24) It's the B Team Morning Show. I'm Schuyler Black. He's Bobby Dewrell. Brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas at OutKast Sushi, and Miramar Beach. On 100.3 KROCK, here's Fleetwood. There was lots of licking it up this last weekend when it came to bomb pops and ice cream. (18:42) Yeah, there you go. There you go. It's the B Team Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK, the Classic Rock Station. I'm Schuyler Black. He's Bobby Dewrell. And the music in the background tells us one thing. So does the clock, actually. (18:57) Yeah, it's time. Kind of the same thing. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It tells us it's time for your daily advice. That's right. Ask Uncle Bobby, all stitched together byTomCat Custom Apparel. Well, because somebody's got to stitch it together, right? Mm-hmm. (19:13) That's all I got. Okay. Great job. I was not prepared. Usually, you give me a little more of a warning shot. Well, I couldn't search fast enough this morning for everything that I had written there. I kind of figured that after doing this for like three years now, that at this time, you kind of had that figured out. (19:29) You know, every family reunion has that one person who asks, Why are we all wearing matching shirts? They're also the person everybody spends the next four hours looking for. True. True. (19:44) I'll tell you a story out there. All right. Today, Uncle Bobby, you hear from the overbooked calendar gremlin. Mm-hmm. Dear Uncle Bobby, Mm-hmm. I feel overwhelmed by responsibilities at work and in my personal life. (19:59) Is it ever okay to just ignore tasks and disappear for a while to manage stress? Logistically, like a magician who respects himself. (20:35) You do not need better prioritization. You need an exit strategy. The modern world runs on one ugly assumption and that's that you're available. You gotta break that assumption and watch your stress fall off like a cheap suit. (20:50) Inbox? Quiet. Group chat? Silent. Deadlines? Suddenly they're theoretical. See, your nervous system has been held hostage by little red notification bubbles and you're asking permission to stop paying ransom. (21:08) Here's the thing nobody says out loud. Most responsibilities are just other people's hopes wearing a clipboard. They're not commandments. They're vibes. (21:23) And you keep treating them like oxygen. You gotta stop. Pull a clean Houdini. One day you're there nodding like a responsible citizen and boom, next day you're gone like a witness protection program with a hoodie. (21:38) See, you gotta start small. You just miss one meeting. Then you miss the follow-up. Then you miss the email about the meeting you missed. And you keep escalating until people learn to route around you like a closed bridge. (21:53) See, you're not failing. You are training your environment. Nature hates a vacuum. Perfect. Let your absence become a weather system. And if anyone calls it job abandonment, smile with your whole soul. (22:12) That's not abandonment. That is self-preservation. You are not a mule. You are a fog machine with a calendar. Disappear long enough and your life gets lighter because the world finally stops stacking bricks on a ghost. (22:28) There's your answer, overbooked calendar gremlin. Now, if you missed Uncle Bobby yesterday or any time last week, we've got them all for you online at TheBTeamShow.com or at DewBob.com where there's some exclusive DewBob merch. (22:44) That's right, that's right. All right, that's Ask Uncle Bobby, weekday mornings at 745-ish. All stitched together byTomCat Custom Apparel. byTomCat Custom Apparel, where the apparel is made custom for you. That is just so good. (23:00) Sunshine this morning in South Okaloosa County. 80 degrees after that rainfall has pushed north and out of our area. Good morning, everybody. I'm Schuyler Black, he's Bobby Dewrell. It's the B Team Morning Show brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. (23:20) Def Leppard's bringing on the heartbreak, opening up things just after 8 o'clock. No heartbreak for Pensacola native Mitchell Robinson, Bobby. The Boston Celtics agreed to pay the Pensacola native $47.4 million on a three-year deal. (23:37) Wow, that's not bad. No, not bad at all. Now, Robinson, who's fresh off of winning an NBA title with the New York Knicks and a person with knowledge of the agreement, told the Associated Press this last Wednesday, the deal, which could not be signed until yesterday, also includes a third-year player option. (23:55) The 7-foot Robinson spent his entire eight-year career with the Knicks thus far. The 28-year-old played a big role for the New York Knicks during its championship run, averaging 4.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 13.9 minutes per game. (24:13) Now, Robinson grew up in Pensacola and attended Pine Forest High School for his freshman and sophomore years. He then played his junior and senior years near St. Bernard Parish in Louisiana. Robinson became Pensacola's first NBA draft pick in 34 years when the Knicks selected him with the 22nd overall pick back in 2018. (24:37) He got himself a big payday, $47 million over the course of three seasons. Also this week, Get the Coast had the story that Florida Department of Transportation is implementing a temporary traffic shift on Brooks Bridge this week as construction continues on the bridge's replacement. (24:58) Starting yesterday, westbound 98 will be reduced to a single lane and shifted onto the eastbound side of the highway between 9 p.m. and 5.30 a.m. But again, that's after 9 p.m. and before 5.30 p.m. (25:13) The shift will stretch from Santa Rosa Boulevard on Okaloosa Island to west of Perry Avenue in downtown Fort Walton Beach. Eastbound traffic will also be reduced to a single lane during the same overnight hours. FDOT said the temporary configuration is needed to perform construction activities on the new bridge. (25:32) Law enforcement officers will be on site to direct motorists through the work zone. Drivers should also be aware that intermittent lane closures may occur on 98 between Ferry Road and Pier Road Sunday through Thursday from 9 p.m. to 5.30 a.m. (25:50) So if you are a late evening or early morning commuter, just heads up on that lane shift this week. All right. More stories to get to in the final hour of the show. We've got them lined up for you, and we'll talk about them in about 15 minutes. (26:07) Blue Oyster Cult coming up after Journey, now on KROCK. There's Pink Floyd and money. It's 823. Sunshine this morning in Fort Walton Beach. A high today of 95. (26:23) Right now, 80 outside. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. The BT Morning Show is on the air, brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill and Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Pink Floyd's Money, great song to lead into this next story. (26:39) Out in Pasadena, California, Bobby, police are looking for a bank robber that made a surprisingly smooth getaway in a wheelchair. Investigators say the man rolled into a First Citizens bank on Friday afternoon, handed the teller a note claiming he had a gun, and kept one hand in his pocket to make it look convincing. (27:01) Now, no weapon was ever seen. The teller handed over a few thousand dollars, and the suspect simply wheeled himself down Lake Avenue before disappearing. Police searched the area but came up empty, and because he claimed to have a gun, the case is being investigated as a felony, and now the FBI has joined in on the hunt. (27:21) Also, another story, an Alabama man has been charged with attempted murder. After police conducting a welfare check at a hotel in Atmore, found an unconscious woman with severe traumatic injuries. Officers entered the hotel room after responding to a request from the victim's family and discovered the woman who was rushed to a regional trauma center for treatment. (27:42) Now, following an investigation by the Atmore Police Department, 39-year-old Robert Heath Walker of Leroy was identified as the suspect and arrested the following day. With assistance from the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force, he does remain in custody, awaiting a bond hearing. (28:02) So, there you go. A couple stories this morning. One from California and one a little more closer to our neck of the woods. It's 824. It doesn't matter where you are. There's criminals everywhere, Bobby. It's 824. A quick break. On the way, music from the Cars, the Doobie Brothers, CCR, and maybe we'll squeeze in some Foreigner before Bobby and I get out of here in just a bit. (28:24) It's the B Team Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK. You know, Bobby, I've been known to be a jukebox hero from time to time. Yeah. Foreigner this morning. See it in your eyes. It's the B Team Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station. (28:40) 843 is the time. We'll check your forecast and local news here in just a little bit. Scientists have now found a protein that could make you immune to being fat. Huh. Okay. Yeah. Sure. (28:55) Here's some interesting news for anyone tired of fad diets. Scientists say they have zeroed in. A new fad. Yeah, exactly. Scientists say they have zeroed in on a new protein nicknamed Mitch. (29:11) And turning it off seems to make cells burn through fat and carbs way faster without needing a drug like Ozempic. The discovery started in mice where switching off Mitch in muscle cells protected them from obesity and even boosted their stamina. (29:27) Now researchers have tested the same idea on human cells in the lab, and the results are lining up. Without Mitch, cells go into overdrive, burning fat straight out of their own membranes just to keep up with the energy demand. (29:43) It's still in its early days, and there's no actual treatment yet, but human trials are a long way off. But scientists say this protein looks like a genuinely promising lead for future obesity treatments that skip the side effects that come with some of today's. (29:59) Weight loss drugs. So, we'll see what comes of the protein nicknamed Mitch. Yeah, let's see. Cautiously optimistic. You don't sound very optimistic about it. No, I'm not. You know, you can buy pills to put in your gas tank that'll also make your gas mileage better, too. (30:21) Yeah. So they say. So I hear. Theoretically. Right. It's 8.45. This is the B Team Morning Show. The show officially ends in just a few minutes, but we've got the Encore Hour coming up for you until 10 o'clock. (30:36) So stay with us. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell on the classic rock station. 100.3 KROCK. AC DC. For those about to rock, we salute you. And the B Team Morning Show wraps things up. (30:52) B Team Encore Hour coming up next. But I want to thank you all for dialing in and spending this Tuesday morning with us. We're hearing a couple rumbles of thunder here in Fort Walton this morning. Taking a look at the National Weather Service Doppler radar. There is some activity out in the Gulf about five miles offshore right now. (31:11) Some thunderstorms that are going to push northeast. So they should be into Mariester, Fort Walton here in the next 15 minutes. And then destined to Niceville, Val. P. Over the next half hour. Probably see him on base this morning somewhere around 930. (31:27) So just a heads up that is coming our way here later on this morning. 20 percent chance of on and off showers and thunderstorms possible here the next couple of days.
