Fool's Paradise Day: Why Your Monday Morning Delusion Might Be the Best Coping Mechanism

(00:01) It's Monday morning, 621 is the time. The B Team Morning Show is on the air. I'm Schuyler Black. He is Bobby Dewrell. And, of course, our show every morning brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. (00:18) This is probably the coolest daytime high we've had in a couple months. A high of 83 today. You know, it was kind of funny yesterday. I was, which makes me realize I'm getting older and need better glasses. But yesterday I was, I pulled up the phone and you know how you get that little widget? (00:35) Well, you don't. On Android, you get like a little widget across the top that'll give you a temperature and, you know, high and low and all of that. And it was it was arrows in front of them trying to show what was the high and what was the low. But they were kind of so thin and tiny that what I saw was 190 slash 170. And I thought, that's about right. (00:53) Yeah, we're cooked. We're cooked. This is the end, Fort Walton. This is how it ends. You know, that's that's not wrong. Yeah, it's going to feel going to feel pretty good today. A high of just 83 right now. (01:08) It's not going to be as bad as it was yesterday. Yeah, it's going to feel going to feel pretty good today. A high of just 83 right now. It's 77 outside and we got a shot of rain sometime around noon today. (01:23) We did have some rain early this morning, had some rumbles of thunder around three that well, that that popped me out of bed. So it has pushed out of here. It's out in the Gulf now, but could see another another shower or two later on in the morning towards the lunch hour. (01:39) Yeah, well, we've got a full list of of national holidays. We got to get to this hour. Yeah. Yeah, including America's favorite coping mechanism. Hmm. That could be a lot of things. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's driving toward the sunset like your problems. I can't keep up with 80 on the interstate. (01:55) Okay. Yeah, it's go. It's go west. Go west. Yeah, go west. And I tell you, I got I got the Eagles playing in my ear right now. Freedom. Oh, freedom. That's just some people talking. Well, you know what I've got in my mind? (02:10) Let's go west. The king of wishful thinking. Hey, go. West Day is that annual nudge to point your nose toward the sunset and pretend you're pioneering something. That was quite Minnesota of your nose. Yeah. Yeah. When you when really you're trying to outrun your inbox and your own decision making. (02:27) Look, look, it's a holiday built on the romantic idea that West equals freedom and reinvention and wide open possibility. You know, like your problems can't read a map. Look, people celebrate by traveling, planning trips and and taking a new route or just simply declaring there. (02:45) They're going west while walking to a different room in the same regrets. So, look, it's not about arriving. It's about the sweet temporary lie. The direction counts as progress. What are what people in San Diego do? (03:00) Swim. Do they swim? Swim down to Tijuana? Sure. OK. Swim over to Hawaii. That's a long ways. Hey, you know what, though? California would be better for it if we lost a lot of them. Yeah. Just waiting on that next earthquake, Bobby. (03:18) All right. It's six twenty four. Should we take a break? Sure. I told you I had a friend of mine that that her dad bought a just a crap ton of property out in the high desert. Right. Right along the San Andreas fault line back in the in the early mid 80s, because he bought into the whole fact that there's going to be a huge earthquake and all of it would slip off. (03:37) And so you'd have waterfront property. Beachfront right there. Yeah. No lie. Forty some years later, it's it's still a test. It's still the high desert. Evil ways from Santana on one hundred point three KROCK, the classic rock station. (03:55) It's Blue Angels Week on Pensacola Beach. All gets underway with the Breakfast with the Blues Wednesday morning, Thursday, Friday. You've got the rehearsals and then Saturday is the big old shebang. We've got the full listing of everything happening this week with the Blue Angels on Pensacola Beach at the events tab, which is called the at the website called the BT show. (04:21) You'll get there. Words are hard. They are. I've not even had my third cup of coffee. Well, what do you got? Tell me what you got. Huh? Aren't we doing these national holidays? Oh, I mean, being in being in France day or something like that. (04:37) Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, the the only cuisine that doubles is dinner and a chemical weapon at the same time. Very true. Very true. Beans and Frank's day as well. It's that proud little blip on the calendar where we stop pretending our lives are curated and admit dinner sometimes comes from a can and well, bad decision. (04:56) See, the tradition is simple. You eat up beans, you throw in hot dogs and you call it heritage while you smoke. Alarm offers commentary. See, people act like it's about nostalgia, but it's really about permission, permission to keep expectations low and sodium high, you know, just for just for 24 hours. (05:16) So grab a bowl, loosen your morals and and remember, this holiday isn't here to fix you. It's here to document you being in Frank's day. It's all part of our lifestyles of the not so rich and famous. That's right. Yeah, I love Frank and beans, but. (05:34) The after effects are. Yeah. Are a thing, aren't they? You're the guy that eats, you know, five five thousand baked beans. Yeah, that two gallon tub. Yeah. All right. Two gallon to two pound tub, I should say. Yeah. (05:50) I don't know which is different or better. They were good. They were good. All right. Journey coming up in just a bit. Couple more national holidays to reveal this hour as well. It's The B Team morning show on one hundred point three. KROCK Jay Giles this morning. (06:07) Centerfold on one hundred point three. KROCK six. Forty four is the time. It's The B Team morning show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. Hope everybody had a good weekend. We've had a few showers in our area this morning. A few more possible later on towards the lunch hour. (06:23) That full forecast coming up in just a little bit. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. The B team show brought to you by Stripes Pub and Grill in Novar. Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. And I guess this is kind of fitting for a Monday, Bobby. (06:39) It's fool's paradise day. No, it's a day for you. So how do you feel about it being paradise day for you? Well, I'd have to be a fool. And how do you feel about it being paradise day for you? (06:55) Well, you should ask a fool. I feel like I am. Fool's paradise day is that special little calendar scam where we all agree to spend 24 hours living inside a lie we personally decorated. (07:11) You know, like a timeshare in your own denial. You know, you celebrate by pretending the red flags are festive banners. The to-do list will work itself out. That one genius idea you had at 2 a.m. is definitely a business plan. (07:27) You know, not a cry for help. It's not about fixing anything. Please, we're not doing miracles. It's about committing to the fantasy with enough confidence that reality gets tired and goes to bother somebody else. So consider it a federally unrecognized holiday for optimists, procrastinators, and, well, anyone who ever said, I've got this, while actively not having this. (07:52) Okay, I have done that. So like I said. Fool's paradise day. This is mine, folks. This is mine. You can't take it from me. See, it's your day, man. Live it. I'm gonna own it. Own it, own it, own it. (08:08) It's your journey now on 100.3 KROCK. You know, that's the perfect song, actually, coming out of fool's paradise day. Don't stop believing. That's true. I got this. I got this. It's Monday. We're grabbing the bull by its horns and, yeah, driving head on into the bay, I think. (08:29) Yeah, that's right. It's the BT morning show on 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station. 77 degrees right down here in Fort Walton Beach. High today of, oh, they kicked us up two degrees now, Bobby. (08:44) Ah, the bastards. Weather Channel says we'll climb to a balmy 85 this afternoon. Liars. Mm-hmm. Liar, liar. Pants on. Mm-hmm. Fire. Isn't that what they say? Yeah, yeah. (08:59) I'm glad you finally made it. I was just waiting. All right. Well, today, there's one last day. Liar, liar. I'm really tired. Liar, liar. Pants for hire. Today, the last holiday we have to talk about is Gruntled Workers' Day. (09:16) Yeah, yeah. It's the one day your management pretends morale isn't dead and, well, workers pretend a pizza party counts as a race. And we do that here. Right? That's why we're gruntled. Gruntled Workers' Day is that rare national moment when the workforce stops pretending they're living the dream and admits the dream has a 6 a.m. alarm and a broken printer. (09:38) Oh, God, they are morning show people, aren't they? Look, you show up, you do the bare minimum with professional eye contact, and you celebrate morale the way it actually exists, quietly, grudgingly, and with a spreadsheet open so nobody asks questions. (09:55) Look, there's no parades. Just synchronized sign. Passive aggressive potlucks and a, well, a sacred hour where everyone agrees the real holiday is not getting a quick call at 459. It's not about joy. It's about solidarity. You know, the kind that forms when you realize your boss's we're family speech is just a budget cut wearing cologne. (10:22) Gruntled Workers Day. Well said, Bobby. Well said. All right. A quick break and a couple more tunes before seven o'clock. But first, Dan Diamond has local news next on 100.3 KROCK. Magic power. The magic power of what I actually hit the button to turn my mic on. (10:42) It's magic. It's a thing. Good morning, everybody. How are you doing? 7.05 is the time. It is Monday. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. The B Team Morning Show on the air brought to you by Stripes Pub and Grilla Novar, Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. It's warming up outside. 79 is our current temp, but damn weather channel switched it again, Bobby. They came back down to 83 for our high. I think you just misread it. Think so? I know. It's impossible. We are expecting showers closer towards the lunch hour today. We'll get that full forecast in just a little bit. How was your weekend? It was a weekend. Low key? Yeah, for the most part. Yeah. (11:29) Did you do any grilling or smoking? Nope. Didn't smoke the pipe? Nope. We're not talking a meth pipe either, folks. Exactly. We're talking a tobacco pipe. Yeah. By the way, this week is Coffee with the Fort Walton Beach City Manager. (11:45) This happens every month down at the library, and it's coming up this Thursday from 8 until 9.

We got some stories to get to this hour, Bobby, including a Florida man that was arrested for trying to Facebook marketplace a sea turtle. Also, the splash pad in Navarre was also exposed to cryptosporidium. That's the explosive diarrhea bug. Yeah, we'll talk about that here in just a little bit. And of course, ask Uncle Bobby later on in the hour as well. That daily advice you need to get your Monday off started and get the week going on the right foot. So we've got plenty to get to here this next 50 minutes or so. (14:07) Joan Jett, Bob Seger, and the Sticks all coming up after Kansas now on 100.3 KROCK. We all should hear Bobby just sing this song in the studio as he does a morning show with me, the best of times. That's how he feels. That's how I always feel. Right, just right there. I feel like your energy level dropped after I said that. You don't seem quite as chipper as you were off the air, Bobby. Yeah, well, you know, just trying to keep it real. Okay. Hey, coming up this weekend, you've got the Freedom Tech Center Farmers Market, Saturday morning from 9 until noon. (14:46) If you haven't been out to Freedom Tech Center yet, well, you're missing out. They've got a brand new two-acre park out there and multiple times a month they host a farmers market. The next one's coming up this Saturday. You can enjoy a fun-filled morning featuring live music, local vendors, delicious food, and a welcoming community atmosphere at the beautiful brand new two-acre park located within Freedom Tech Center on Lewis Turner Boulevard out there by the courthouse and the fairgrounds. So check it out. We've got more details for you online at our website. It's called thebteamshow.com. That's right. That's right. Trying to get some information out there. (15:25) Somebody's got to in this town, damn it. That's right. Trying to get it there sometimes, though, is pretty rough. Pulling teeth, right? Pulling teeth. Well, over in Navarre, two parasites and national headlines have made their way to northwest Florida. On Friday, Escambia County recorded its first case of cyclosporiasis. Also, Santa Rosa County Health Department closed down a splash pad in Navarre after contact was made with cryptosporidium. (15:56) Now, it was closed Friday for cleaning and will not reopen until tomorrow. The playground is also closed for cleaning and is set to reopen, was set to reopen over the weekend. Both parasites cause, well, gastrointestinal issues, including explosive diarrhea. Now... I think he just likes saying explosive diarrhea. It's kind of fun. It's kind of fun. On Franken-Bean's Day, Bob. At the splash pad, cryptosporidium can be spread. I got to tell you, explosive diarrhea and splash pads sure makes a different... I'm just saying. You're getting visuals here. I'm just saying. It sure paints a picture, one could say. Good lord. It paints a picture. Uh-huh. Could you use a different form of adjective than paint? Nope. Can you say something other than splash pad and explosive diarrhea together? You're the one painting. (16:55) I'll work on it. At the splash pad, cryptosporidium can be spread by swallowing contaminated water. And the first case of cyclosporiasis reported in Escambia County was on June 18th and connected to a multi-state outbreak. Now, U.S. health officials say that's typically spread through contaminated produce like raspberries, cilantro, basil, and bagged salad mixes. Officials say the illness can cause prolonged, sometimes severe, diarrhea. This issue is, and one thing to remember, with some foodborne illness, you can get sick for about 24 to 48 hours and then you get better, says ABC News chief medical correspondent Tara Narula. But with this particular illness, symptoms come and go and they can last for weeks up to a month. Good lord. So to reduce, you know, catching cyclosporiasis, doctors recommend that you wash your hands, wash all produce, and cook your vegetables. And actually, they're saying now, if you just stay away from the salad mixes and the bagged salads, just buy yourself a head of lettuce, wash it thoroughly, peel back the first couple leaves, and you should be good. But anyway, there you go. (18:11) The more you know, the more you know. There you go. Yeah. Again, the splash pad in Navarre should be reopened by tomorrow. All right, 727 is the time. A quick break. More nonstop classic rock is coming up. Bad Company, The Stones, Jethro Tull, and your advice from Uncle Bobby. All on the way in the second half of the hour on 100.3 KROCK. (18:39) Jumping Jack Flash. There's The Stones on the classic rock station 100.3 KROCK. It's the BT Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre. Stripes, of course, now open for dinner on Mondays. Also brought to you by Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. 80 degrees right now in Fort Walton, a high today of 84. We'll check your forecast in just a little bit. A story coming out of central Florida, Bobby. (19:14) Facebook marketplace post advertising a rare turtle shell for $2,700 led FWC officers to a Lake Worth beach home and a protected species investigation. According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the investigation began back on June 30th after a Boynton Beach police officer alerted the FWC about an online advertisement offering a shell for sale. Now, the listing described the item as a rare turtle shell and claimed it was in perfect condition with a price tag of $2,700. Investigators say photos in the post showed what appeared to be an Atlantic hawksbill sea turtle shell. Atlantic hawksbill sea turtles are... (19:59) Protected under Florida's Marine Turtle Protection Act and the Federal Endangered Species Act. Now the Hawksbill sea turtle is the rarest sea turtle species that regularly occurs in Florida according to wildlife officials. They're known for patterned shells which were historically used to make jewelry, hair ornaments and other decorative items. (20:22) The trade is now banned in the U.S. So FWC officers tracked the listing to a Lake Worth Beach address and made contact with 63-year-old Addison Mullen on July 1st. During the interaction investigators say Mullen acknowledged having the Hawksbill shell but would not show it to officers without a search warrant. (20:42) He also said he had paperwork for the shell but declined to provide it. The judge later approved a search warrant and FWC officers returned to the home on July 6th according to court records. Police say they found the shell on a shelf inside the residence and seized it. (20:58) This time around Mullen was again unable to provide documentation proving the shell was legally possessed. The shell was then taken to the FWC field lab where a biologist confirmed it to be an Atlantic Hawksbill sea turtle. Mullen is accused of offering to sell a protected marine turtle species part which is a third degree felony under Florida law. (21:21) Wait so so so I'm walking along and I see a shell and I think it's kind of cool so I polish it up clean it up and then try to sell it and I can go to jail. Sounds like it. That's just ridiculous. What about if you find a talon of a of an eagle? (21:37) Oh I mean if you find a dead eagle I mean and then you sell a talon whatever. Anyway that's kind of what I'm getting out of it too is that yeah he he came across it mm-hmm and hey that looks kind of cool I'm gonna take this home probably held on to it for a number of years now needs a little little cash right so now he's in jail and needs more cash hey hey grandpa what you could sell that turtle shell oh good idea youngster mm-hmm now he's in the po-po all right Uncle Bobby's advice is four minutes away after Stevie Ray Vaughan's cover of Stevie Wonder's Superstition lots of Stevie's going on this morning it's a B Team morning show on KROCK Stevie Ray Vaughan and Superstition on a 100.3k rock the classic rock station it's the B Team morning show 48 minutes after 7 o'clock on a Monday morning music in the background tells us it's time for some wisdom that's right your daily advice it's ask Uncle Bobby all stitched together byTomCat custom apparel hey Schuyler you know what the difference between a crowd and a group is a group is small and a crowds big no a group has matching shirts byTomCat can make that happen oh that's how you become a groupie that's right it's all about the matching shirts well today Bobby you hear from the staple whispering intern mm-hmm dear Uncle Bobby how do I build a successful career without trying to find passion or purpose in my work all right look I figured this out long ago okay you got to stop hunting for passion at work okay passion is for people who own jet skis and run and run grip group chats okay a job is just a vending machine that takes hours and spits out rent money and if you treat it like that well then you'll finally achieve the rarest office state and that's serenity through indifference see look here's the truth nobody with the vision board is ever gonna admit okay the modern workplace doesn't reward purpose it rewards the appearance of purpose the world is run by people who can look mildly concerned while doing absolutely nothing that can be pinned on them later and that's the whole sport see you don't need a calling you need plausible deniability with good posture apathy done right is is office Zen you become water not the inspirational kind no the kind that leaks through every crack and somehow never gets blamed for the the ceiling stain see you master the calm not the thoughtful pause the slow dangerous sentence well let's a line on next steps see that phrase is a smoke bomb you toss it and vanish into a meeting invite and when someone tries to hand you responsibility well you got to handle it like a live ferret see you don't grab it you guide it you reframe it you say you're you're excited to support then you immediately schedule a discovery session with three people who love hearing themselves talk and by the time anything happens it's next quarter and everyone's pretending they never asked see if you do this long enough something magical occurs you become essential without being accountable a ghost with a badge a legend in slack and a mirage in reality they'll promote you just to keep you from leaving because nobody can explain what you do and that is the highest form job security look purpose is heavy you got a coast float and get paid not a bad idea not a bad idea keeps the stress low and the paychecks rolling mm-hmm there you go there's your response staple whispering intern all right if you got a question for uncle Bobby you can well you can always email him Bobby at do bob.com you can always go to do bob.com and check out all the previous episodes and maybe get yourself some merch as well mm-hmm everybody needs to be rocking at least

illegal immigrant truck drivers can't read English they can't read street signs they they don't know the rules of the road yeah and not only is it it's it's it's harming people yeah yeah so it really

(30:02) The who? (30:31) So, I hope everybody's Monday is going better than mine. Good lord. Yeah, do you think it's funny that there's who, the who, and guess who? Three totally different bands. What about the guess who is? Who dat? (30:47) Who dat? Oh, jeez, yeah. They're from Louisiana. We the who dat? Alright, the B Team Morning Show is on the air on a Monday morning. It is absolutely pouring down rain in Fort Walton right now. (31:03) It's raining a little bit. It's a sprinkler, too. Right, just a sprinkle. That's it. It's sprinkling. It's a car wash Monday morning is what it is right now. Hey, coming up to Freedom Tech Center right here in Fort Walton Beach this Saturday. (31:20) They're doing their Farmer's Market. That starts at nine, goes until noon. It'll be a fun-filled morning featuring live music, local vendors, delicious food, and a welcoming community atmosphere at the brand-new, beautiful two-acre park at Freedom Tech Center. By the way, quick mention and shout-out to Colton Borthwick of South Walton. (31:41) He won one of the All Sports Association Awards this last spring. He was drafted by the San Diego Padres in the first round this last weekend. 21st overall pick. (31:56) Now faces a decision to either head to Auburn or go to the pros. Colton Borthwick of South Walton, congratulations on being a first-round draft pick in the MLB draft this weekend. (32:15) Still going to 1A ball. Yeah, he might build up that resume a little bit more if he goes and plays at Auburn for a couple years. He's got some decisions to make. You know what? If I was an 18-year-old young man like him and I had those decisions, I would say I'm off to a pretty good start. (32:33) Yeah. You know, I got to tell you, back in the day I used to be like, oh, you should always focus on your education. But I'm going to be honest with you, man. Be smart. Be sensible. Take the money. That's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be picked to try to work your way up. (32:49) You know, it's not a lot of money, but go for it, man. Blow your shoulder. Blow your elbow. You can always go back to school. School will always be there. Yeah. It's 8.31. We're going to take a quick break, and more Classic Rock is coming up next on 100.3 KROCK. (33:04) 100.3 KROCK. It's the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. Yeah, we're dealing with pouring down rain in Fort Walton right now and actually looking at the radar at this moment. Pretty much strong to heavy rainfall across all of Choctahatchee Bay right now. (33:24) In fact, as far west as the Pensacola and Gulf Breeze area, all the way over to 331, you're seeing strong to heavy rainfall right now. So it's a soggy start to the work week here in South Okaloosa County. (33:40) Well, Bobby, drivers in Okaloosa County and Santa Rosa County should expect to see more deputies on the roads as part of Operation Southern Slowdown. Remember they did this last year as well? This is a regional crackdown on speeding aimed at preventing deadly crashes. (33:58) Now, starting today, the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office and the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office are joining law enforcement agencies across Florida and the southeastern United States for Operation Southern Slowdown, a week-long campaign running through the 18th. (34:13) Now, the effort focuses on reducing speed-related crashes through increased traffic enforcement and public education. Deputies enforce speed limits year-round, but the campaign is meant to spotlight speeding as one of the leading causes of serious and fatal crashes and to encourage drivers to slow down before a crash happens, according to the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office. (34:35) Officials emphasize that the time gained by speeding is not worth the risk and the initiative is aimed at preventing injuries and saving lives. So, give it up, Leadfoot. Give it up. Alright, it's 8.43. We've got time for a couple more songs before Bobby and I get out of here and, well, I guess wrap up the B Team show and get into the B Team Encore Hour here at 9 o'clock. (35:03) This one's for you, Bobby. America. A horse with no name. 100.3 KROCK. It's Foreigner, Jukebox Hero on the Classic Rock Station. 100.3 KROCK.

It has for the last half hour or so and it's going to continue here the next couple hours this morning. We'll check your full forecast in just a little bit. Hopefully it'll stop before the next hour's up. (35:36) Why? You don't want to get wet? Well, I mean, I've got to stick around for an hour anyway. Now I'm not so regretting the extra hour of no pay. You could just do this every day. Oh, wait, you do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. (35:51) As Frank Bennett looked at me like I had a third head. You're crazy. You're crazy. Hey, this week is the Pensacola Beach Air Show Week with the Blue Angels. And it all gets underway Wednesday morning. Breakfast with the Blues.

Unlike what we've got this morning. But we've got the full list of everything happening out there with the Blue Angels Air Show Week on our website. (36:23) Just go to thebteamshow.com.

If you don't want to listen to all the music and all the commercials and everything else. That's right. (36:38) Just our bits. That's right. Boy, when you say it that way, it sounds a little. It's just me bits. You had to go there. Right there in public. It was just his bits. All right. (36:53) I said I go. I got nothing. Don't look at the. But it's too late. I got nothing. I got nothing.

Keep on rolling. Never settle for the ordinary. Until the next time, the B Team is out. (37:41) And that's a wrap on today's B Team Redux.
