National Puppy Day & Gator Takedown: How Iowa's Division II Misfits Crushed the Champs—Plus Florida's Most Disturbing Airbnb Revenge

(00:00) Here's today's B Team Redux. Currently outside, it's 65. (00:33) Humidity is at 97%. 82 is going to be our high today. (00:51) Mids to upper 70s the rest of the week. I'm looking at the forecast all the way through next weekend, and I don't see a single day with a chance of rain. Okay. Well, I like rain, so it doesn't bother me. (01:07) But that's cool. We've got sunshine and warmer temperatures, so that's good. I'm feeling the sun today, because yesterday afternoon I went up to the yacht club and spent a couple hours by the pool. Not too damn cold to get in the water, of course. (01:24) Sat outside, and Taylor was out of function, so I had a couple hours to kill. And then Drew and Courtney Geiger showed up and hung out with them for a couple hours. And Taylor showed up eventually. Now, wait a minute. Now, I thought I saw something on Facebook where you were grilling or doing a boil? (01:43) That was on Saturday. That was on Saturday. Okay. All right. I was going to say, boy, you had a jam-packed day yesterday if you did all that. Yeah. Dudley and Andre had us over on Saturday. Okay. We did a crawfish boil. Nice. And then Jim was with us. (01:59) Yeah. Jim came over. And then earlier in that day, went out with some friends downtown. I'll give you the story later on, but I don't know what the hell we're doing, but we're drawing a magnet for weird liberal hippies. (02:15) Really? Oh, we got accosted downtown. Did you really? We certainly did. So we got a story later that night. We got a story to get to. Awesome. Good to hear. So anyway. Something to fill the hour. That's right. Yeah. That's right. (02:30) Hey, we're the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason on a Monday. Hoping everybody had a great weekend. Of course, my weekend went really, really well last night. Yeah. Hawkeyes taking down the top-seeded Florida Gators. Oh, man, you're in heaven this morning. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. (02:45) If you all want to come over, we're having gator for supper tonight. I got the fryer going around 6 o'clock or so. Yeah. They did last night, too, didn't they? Uh-huh. That's pretty cool. Uh-huh. Yeah. David took down Goliath last night. So we'll talk about that later on in the show. But if you look at the National Day calendar today. (03:01) Yeah. If I was looking at the National Day calendar, right? If you wanted to be prepared at all, that would be helpful. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason, very, very prepared this morning. Since somebody else wasn't this morning, right? Well, that's part of the deal, is that we're a little bit discombobulated. (03:18) Oh, discombobulated. Bobby-ulated. Yeah. That's a good way to put that. I like that. Because he didn't have this stuff done beforehand. Right. And he was supposed to have all this done before he left for Greece. (03:33) Yeah. Can't count on him. No, you can't, obviously. So Tom and I sat here for the last 20 minutes and hand-wrote out our definitions for the National Holiday calendar. We did. And I think we did a good job. I think so, too. You, especially, really came through in this one. (03:49) We tag-teamed it. Yeah. We tag-teamed it. Made it work. And today, Monday, March 23rd, we start out with Cuddly Kitten Day. Oh, yeah. Cuddly Kitten Day. That magical 24 hours when society collectively decides that the world's problems can be solved by a pile of fluffy, wide-eyed kittens. (04:08) It's the day to pretend that having a kitten curled up in your lap will fix your broken relationships, dead-end job, and existential dread. Forget about climate change or world peace. What we really need is an Instagram post of an impossibly adorable furball with a caption like, perfectly fluffy. (04:26) Did you see how I did that? That was good. That was good, Tom. So go ahead. Abandon all adult responsibilities and spend the day clinging to your kitten like it's the only thing keeping you tethered to this reality. Hmm. There you go. Cuddly Kitten Day. (04:41) Did you see how you woke up this morning? Perfectly. Yeah. Adorable. Do you have cats rubbing up on you this morning? They don't do that. Not those cats. Oh. Oh. Yeah. Maybe the wife does. I like the other cat, yeah. (04:58) VT Morning Show brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and OutKast Sushi in Miramar Beach. It's 100.3 KROCK. Stay with us. We've got more holidays to get to here during this 6 o'clock hour. The clash. You know, interesting, the clash. (05:15) I'm talking about the clash between the two teams last night. Yeah, very interesting, Tom. You showed me, well, I was trying to relate it somehow. I don't know. You showed me some pictures of some of those disgruntled fans from last night. Yeah. Man, tears tasted good. (05:33) At least on your side, right? That's right. I got a text from Holguin last night. Yeah. He said, congrats, bitch. That's good. (05:51) Made me feel good. Yeah. It's the VT Morning Show on a Monday. 625 is the time. Going to be a gorgeous, gorgeous start to the week, folks. A high of 82 in sunshine today. Right now we're at 65, and I've got that full forecast coming up in just a little bit. (06:08) Schuyler Black and Tom Mason coming back after the weekend. Honestly, I was so much on adrenaline last night. Yeah. I finally got to bed, I want to say 1230, and the alarm went off at 430. (06:25) I'm running on four hours of sleep, but I'm still running on adrenaline right now. What time did the game end? Oh, God. I mean, it ended at 830. Oh, gosh. Yeah. You had four hours of nonstop woo-woo-woo. Yep. (06:40) Exactly. Well, then I'd have a celebratory bourbon. Of course. You know. Of course, who wouldn't, right? Yeah. Yeah. With the idea, that'll relax me. Sure. It'll work. Sure. Yeah. Taylor's like, we'll just have another one. No. (06:55) Sunday night. I've got to be on the air here in about eight hours. Or not. Or not. You could be like somebody else and just don't do the things that need to be done, you know? We're not talking about him today. Okay. We're going to leave him out of the conversation, because you're on a high. (07:11) Right. Right. I feel like I need to play ELO, Don't Bring Me Down. Bobby. Yeah, not Bruce. Yeah. Bobby. Bobby. Uh-huh. Don't Bring Me Down, Bobby. Can we find that version? (07:26) Well, actually, what we could do is we could play it, and we could just fade it down and go, Bobby. Right in the middle of the song. Bobby. We can try it. Why not? We're on a high, so why not? Exactly. Yeah. (07:41) Exactly. Who's going to tell us no? Exactly. Four listeners? Yeah, I mean, you can call in here, but it's going to go to Dan's station on 94.3. Right, so we don't care. Yeah. I'm not going to take the call. I'm on this. That's right. (07:56) All right, today on the National Day Calendar, we also have, we talked about kitties. We did talk about kitties. Now we're talking about puppies. National Puppy Day. That's right. How can you do both in the same day? I don't know, but it is National Puppy Day. We don't discriminate against around here. (08:12) We give due respect to both. We don't. We're catching all the cuddly animals. It's that one day of the year when we all pretend that the key to world happiness is not, in fact, mental health care or financial stability, but a tiny, slobbering ball of chaos that will inevitably chew through your shoes and poop on your rug. (08:33) Or in your shoe, in my son's case. Oh, what a pleasant surprise. It's the day when your social media feed is flooded with so much puppy content that you forget we live in a society riddled with crisis, because who can focus on, say, the decline of democracy? (08:49) Oh, God, you sound like a Democrat. When there's a cute golden retriever pup looking up at you with those big, soulful eyes. So go ahead, celebrate this overly sentimental holiday by spoiling your pup with overpriced toys, while simultaneously avoiding any real responsibilities. (09:10) Because nothing says adulting like a puppy filter on your problems. Yeah, I do agree. Dogs make it all better. They do make it all better. My eye is watering so bad during reading that, I'm surprised I got through it. Yeah, it's almost like he had Tourette's there for a minute. (09:28) I was just like, okay, that looks like that word. All right, it's 629. We still got that story to get to. I'll probably do it during the 7 o'clock hour about what Jake Wood and I experienced downtown on Saturday. (09:46) Yeah, I want to hear that. All right. I want to hear about this. Tell you what, I don't know what's drawing them here. What the hell has happened to this town? I don't know. Wow. We need to fix it. We do need to fix it. Bob Seger, the Eagles, and Billy Schuyler do up in the second half of the 6 o'clock hour on 100.3 KROCK. (10:05) Oh, that was pretty smooth, man. Did you like that? Yeah, that was pretty smooth. I like the way you did that. You don't like this next one? Today is National Tum Ollie Day. I don't think it's spelled that way, but we can go with that. (10:20) Doesn't taste the same, I can tell you that. I don't want to try that. I'll just take your word. National Tum Ollie Day, because who doesn't need a designated holiday to celebrate a corn husk stuffed with mystery meat, masa, and the faint hope that your grandmother's recipe doesn't result in a food coma. (10:40) This is the day we collectively ignore the fact that tamales are a labor-intensive culinary project requiring hours of work and willingness to engage in the kind of family drama that only a tamale assembly line can provoke. (10:55) Oh, my bad. Read it, Tom. Forget about balanced diets or eating something that doesn't require you to nap for the rest of the afternoon. On National Tum Ollie Day, it's all about shoving as many of these carb-loaded, chili-saturated wonders into your face as possible. (11:12) Because nothing says tradition like eating your body weight in tamales and pretending that indigestion isn't inevitable. I do like some tamales. I do too, man. But I gotta have some hot sauce with them. Yeah, I think most people eat tamales with something on them. (11:30) Yeah, or salsa. Yeah, just to spice them up a little bit. But I do love tamales. There's some goodness, man. The problem I have with tamales occasionally is they put like an ounce of meat in there. (11:45) Sometimes, yeah. And then it's just all corn. The masa is just too thick. Yeah, they gotta have a good amount of meat in them. Up the road here, a little Mexican store on the side of El Jalisco, I think it is. (12:00) No, no. Ah, shoot, I can't. Mejante Market up here. Great tamales. Really? Yes. And then they're refrigerated or they're fresh? You can get them fresh or frozen. Okay. (12:15) Yep, either one. Really good, huh? Yeah, they're very good. I might have to take you up on that. Might have to swing by there and give it a shot. Yeah, great tamales, man. Yeah. Well, there you go. National Tamale Day. How about that? Yeah. (12:30) On Monday. Get your indigestion rolling. Monday, March 23rd. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason, yeah, getting back into the swing of things on this Monday. Quick reminder, you've got another week to get out to Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre and get registered for those Sticks and Fog Hat tickets coming up on April 10th. (12:49) Sticks and Fog Hat are going to be live in concert in Biloxi and we've got tickets to get you into the show. So you don't want to miss out. Swing out there and get signed up here by the 1st of April. One more holiday to reveal and lots of stories and tidbits to get to from the weekend coming up here on the B Team Morning Show. (13:09) Here's Boston on 100.3 KROCK. 6.50 is the time. It's a beautiful Monday morning on Northwest Florida's Emerald Coast. How you doing? Schuyler Black and Tom Mason, the B Team Morning Show. (13:25) Brought to you by Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Quick reminder, coming up on Friday night from 5.30 until 8.30 is the City of Fort Walton's annual Bunny Hop Trail event happening at the Rec Center and the Preston Hood Athletic Complex on Jet Drive. (13:45) And it's from 5.30 until 8.30 a free family friendly event. There's going to be treats, bounce houses, face painting and other fun activities as well as a photo booth where the kids can have their picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Aww, yeah. (14:00) It's a great event. They do this every year. And of course we've got more details on it by visiting the events tab at thebteamshow.com. Well today, Monday, March 23rd, is OK Day on the National Day Calendar. (14:17) It is OK Day. OK! Tell me about it. OK. It is a holiday dedicated to celebrating the most mediocre of all expressions. OK. It's the day we officially recognize the art of giving a half-hearted, non-committal response to everything from life-altering questions to Do you want fries with that? (14:39) Because why go the extra mile when you can simply shrug and utter the universal, unemotional, or emotional neutral phase that means absolutely nothing and everything at the same time. So on OK Day, embrace the power of indifference, cancel all plans, say OK to every invitation, and let your world be as bland as a soggy cracker. (15:02) Who needs enthusiasm when OK will get you through the day without any actual effort or emotional investment? OK Day. OK. Or you can, if you're not into the brevity thing, you can okie-dokie. Go with that. Oh. (15:18) There you go. Do you add in the artichoke-y in there, too? Artichoke-y in there? Okie-dokie, artichoke-y. Okie-dokie, little smokey. There you go. Keep going with it, man. Keep going with it. Okie-dokie, okie-pokie. What you got next? (15:34) Oh, man. I'm sorry I even opened up that Pandora's box. Yeah, you should be. I'm sorry I even left it like it is. Crap, that's embarrassing. You got more? No, I'm done. I'm done. D-U-N, done. (15:49) 6.53 is the time. We're going to take a break and pay a couple bills. On the way? Well, we got music. We got music. I screwed up that Boston song and then flipped to the Stones. I ended up going back to the same Boston song because I fat-fingered it. (16:06) Let me get some music lined up for you here after this commercial break. How does that sound? It's going to be okay, Schuyler. I'm on four hours of sleep here, so bear with me. But you're on a high, man. Oh, I am. You're on a high. We looked at that clip of them hitting that three-pointer, and that was wonderful. (16:22) We'll dig into that here in the 7 o'clock hour. There you go. Quick break, and more Classic Rock is coming up next on 100.3 KROCK. ZZ Top got me under pressure. I had a chili dog Saturday, I think it was. (16:39) Did you? Were you under pressure? Chicago dogs, man. Love that. Oh, that's a good spot down there on Eglin. Yeah, it's great. I know. Yeah, I had a chili dog, and yeah, I believe I was under pressure. We've all been there. (16:54) Yeah. We've all been there. Had I known you were right downtown, we should have just come down there and watched. Yeah. Yeah. You missed the show. The festivities. (17:10) 63 degrees right now, fair skies in Destin, Fort Walton Beach, a high today of 82. We are the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason, brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas and OutKast Sushi in Miramar Beach. But yeah, had a real interesting situation on Saturday downtown. (17:26) It sounds like it. We were out with Jake Witt and Jim. Yeah. And Jake Witt's friend Pat. Yeah. Just having a good old time, just being social, having a beer. (17:42) Sitting there minding your own business. Enjoying the beautiful weather. Yeah. So we were downtown, right next to Salt Hop, right outside Salt Hop, behind the old KC's. Okay. And this couple, older couple in their, I would say in their 60s or 70s, started walking through the old KC's and towards us. (18:00) Okay. And they were dressed, you could tell they just, they hadn't been here long. Okay. Right? Either they're tourists that are down for spring break, or you could just tell they didn't quite fit right. Okay. (18:16) You could just tell by the way they, the way they looked. Not to be stereotypical or judgmental, but you know. But if they don't fit, they don't fit. Right. Yeah. Something was just a little off. They walked past us, and then the lady turns around, and she comes back, and yeah, smelled like patchouli and B.O.'s. (18:35) And we're like, oh great, here's a San Francisco hippie. That's exactly what she was. Yeah. Yeah, she starts preaching to us about today, at 12 p.m., it's the great synchronization. Have you heard about this? (18:51) Okay. And we told her, you know what, we're not interested. Oh, but you must listen. Oh gosh. You need enlightening. Exactly. So, she came up to us and started preaching to us about peace and unity and a global society. (19:11) And, you know, we're in very dark times right here, right now. All the buzzwords. Exactly. And apparently, yeah, they're in Fort Walton now, because this is where they're called to be. (19:27) And they're starting to organize. Oh boy. So, we've got that going. So, we've got that going now. We've got these crazy left-wing wackos moving into Fort Walton. And, mind you, this coming Saturday, there's supposed to be another No Kings protest happening. (19:47) Okay. So, I guess we're protesting the U.K. Hey, it's working, right? Yeah, because we still don't have a king. Yeah, because we still don't have a king, so it's working well. So anyway, that was my experience on Saturday with that individual. (20:09) So what's the positive in this? They're off the streets, they're not causing... No, because they are out on the streets, so... How do you look at this positively? She walked away before it escalated. (20:25) Nobody got punched. That's good. That's a good thing. No, hands weren't flying. They wanted to. Ears were burning. It sounds like they wanted to. Ears were burning, and we were all visibly annoyed. But you needed enlightening. (20:41) And I kept trying to think about, you know, Todd, I've seen her from somewhere. We all kept saying, yeah, she was. She looked kind of familiar. And then it dawned on us. She was friends with Jenny when she moved out to San Francisco and Forrest Gump. (20:56) Okay, that's where it was. I could not believe that. In little old Fort Walton. Right, right. You kind of don't expect stuff like that to happen. This is not hate Ashbery. Right. You don't expect that kind of activity. (21:14) This is by the landing. Fort Walton landing. Not hate Ashbery. Right. And you know, I mean, I would venture to say that the group you're with, and I know most of them don't look like somebody that you would walk up to and want to say, these people need some learning. (21:31) Yeah, that's what I want to. That's what I'm trying to figure out. Yeah. Who in our group thought that you coming over to us was a good idea? Right. Like, like, like, who did you look at and say, you know what, I can convert. I can get them. (21:46) Yeah. Well, that's the thing. The, you know, the whole, the whole thing about that is they feel like, hey, man, I've got to tell you what I've got to say. Okay. But if I don't want to hear it, and if I tell you no and stop, you should stop. (22:01) And that's it. It needs to be done. Have your opinion, have your peace and all that stuff. Great. But once I say, leave me alone, then leave me alone. Right. You need to be done. Exactly. I'll just wear, I'm just gonna start wearing a sign around my neck that says no soliciting. (22:18) Stay away, freak. It's the BT Morning Show on a Monday. 100.3 KROCK. Stay with us. I know you all won the national championship last year, but you reached the point of no return last night when you fell to my Iowa Hawkeyes. (22:37) One and done, man. Out. That's how the cookie crumbles. That's it. Yeah. 73-72, Iowa takes down top-seeded Florida in the NCAA tournament. That was a big upset. Down in Tampa. Yeah. I mean, two hours from Gainesville. Right, right. (22:52) So 18,000 Gators fans and like 1,500 Iowa fans. Is that what they broke it down to? Oh, it was an absolute road game. Yeah. Absolute road game. Wow. Yeah. Alvaro Fulgares hits a game-winning three for Iowa with 3.9 seconds left, and the Hawkeyes shocked the world. (23:13) And what a story he's got. You were telling me about that during the break. That's pretty interesting. Really cool story. A guy's from Spain and hadn't seen his dad die when he was in high school, and he hadn't seen his mom since he came over here. So she hadn't seen him since before his freshman year of college. (23:31) She flew into Tampa on Thursday, and he hits the game-winner to send Iowa to its first Sweet 16 since 1999 and take down the defending national champions. That's a great story. Very cool story. You'll like it. (23:46) I certainly hope that they go farther, that they're not out after this one. But, yeah, it'd be nice to see them go farther. And honestly, at this point, because of the story and everything like that, I'd love to see them go all the way. (24:02) Well, and there's a Northwest Florida tie to it. Iowa's leading scorer last night, Tavion Banks, actually played for two years right here in Niceville. Did he really? For the Raiders. Those of you that have gone to Northwest Florida State College basketball game, I think the 22-23 and 23-24 season, he played his freshman and sophomore years right here in Okaloosa County. (24:26) That's great. And he was Iowa's leading scorer last night in their upset bid over Florida. So Iowa will take on our hated rival, Nebraska, for the third time this year when we take on Nebraska in Houston on Thursday. (24:43) And so far, it's been a season split. Iowa won the first one by five, and Nebraska won the second one in overtime. Okay. So I'm sure it'll be a nip and tuck. But, yeah, you've got Iowa and Nebraska, and that's certainly going to be farmageddon. (24:58) And it's in Houston, so nobody's got any kind of home field advantage or anything like that. Exactly. They're both coming from the same distance. Yeah. That ought to be great. Great. Probably one worth watching. Had a couple regional teams, though, from the South that advanced onto the Sweet 16. (25:15) If you're an Alabama fan, they took care of business versus Texas Tech last night, 90-65. Wow. But win for the Crimson Tide. They move on to the Sweet 16 this coming weekend. And also, as a winner yesterday, was six-seeded Tennessee over three-seeded Virginia. (25:36) So the Vols pull an upset as well, and they move on to a Sweet 16 as well. So now that Florida's out, who becomes the No. 1 seed in the tournament? Well, you've got four regions, right? (25:51) Right. With 16 teams in each region. So you have a one seed from each of those regions. Florida's the first one seed to drop out. The other three one seeds left include Michigan, Duke, and Arizona. (26:06) Okay. So they're all still in it. And then a lot of the two seeds are still in it as well. I was just so excited last night. I bet. (26:22) We're a small farm state. An Iowa state in Iowa. The whole state has a population of barely three million. And both schools made it to the Sweet 16. Well, and as you said in the break, there's even more to the story that hasn't been told yet about where the team came from and its history and stuff like that. (26:40) So it makes it even better. Well, that's the cool thing, is that whole Iowa team was cobbled together. They only had one kid left over from last year's squad. They fired last year's coach, brought in a new coach. He spent one year at Drake, which is a small private school in Des Moines. (26:57) And then 14 years before that, coached Division II, Northwest Missouri State. Won four Division II titles there. But over half of that squad that beat Florida last night was playing Division II basketball two years ago. (27:14) So even more sentimental reasons to really like the team. It is a David vs. Goliath Cinderella story. Because, yes, they are a Power Conference team. But those are not Power Conference players. They were not big-time recruits. (27:32) They were guys that would play at UWF. That's the local equivalent to it. In Northwest Florida. So it's really cool. Obviously, sorry Gators fans. (27:47) But I'm really not, sorry. Don't forget, we are going to carry the Alabama Crimson Tide for you all the way through the end of their run. Over on Sister Station 103.7, the ticket. And of course, our coverage sponsored by Brad Cobble with Resolution of Destined Insurance. (28:05) And Dr. Richard Shurn with the Hormone Restoration Clinic in Miramar Beach. So, there you go. There's the recap from yesterday. I'll tell you what. I filled out a couple brackets. I told you that. Just because my heart's in it. (28:22) Of course, I pick Iowa to win the whole thing. Only 4% of brackets in the country picked that. So all of a sudden, I got this notification from ESPN last night. You're in the top 5%! Called it. (28:41) All of a sudden, you're a big hero. Listen to my advice. Sports bettors, give me a call. I'll tell you how to put that money down. Even if it is a sentimental favorite. (28:57) Ram Jam and Black Betty coming up. Tom Petty. And of course, Ask Uncle Tom in about 15 minutes. Stay with us. It's a BT Morning Show on 100.3 KROCK. Rainbow was the lead singer of Rainbow. Man on the Silver Mountain and all those guys in that band are now singing Man on the Centrum Silver. (29:17) Is there a little old? Just a little bit. Just a little bit. It's a BT Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason. We've gone backwards in temps since we got in at 6. Started at 65. At 741, we're at 61 degrees. (29:32) But, we're supposed to see a high today of 82 degrees. This may be our first day here in Destin-Fort Walden where we see 80s this year. Beautiful weekend. Yeah, it was great. Mid to upper 70s. (29:47) But, it is supposed to warm up a little bit this afternoon. Then, those mid to upper 70s will settle back in tomorrow. They're going to stick with this at least for the next seven days. It is officially spring now, by the way. That's true. That did start Friday. (30:03) So, yeah, this weekend was great. The weather was beautiful. It was a great weekend to sit around on some patio furniture and talk politics. With people that I want to discuss it with. Not with some B.O. smelling lady off the road. (30:19) Not that I want to open up any old wounds. Just pour the salt in, Tom. Pour it in. What really got you going? It's just irritating. It's irritating. (30:35) I mean, put yourself... A. Lady, you stink. B. You're an idiot. C. Go away. And D. We've given you all the signs. Leave. (30:50) Leave. When everybody's turning their head because they can't breathe because you smell so awful. What did you say? Patchouli and B.O.? Patchouli and B.O. Oh, she was definitely one of the flower children of the late 60s. (31:08) Probably dumber, too, huh? Probably. There's a story out there that politics makes us dumber. Really? Politics doesn't just divide people. It can actually change how we think and make us less logical. (31:24) Once political identity becomes part of who we are, we start prioritizing loyalty to our group over facts or truth. One big reason is something called motivated reasoning. That means people often decide what they believe first, then look for arguments to justify it instead of looking at evidence and forming a conclusion. (31:43) Over time, this creates a kind of mental tunnel vision where opposing ideas don't even seem reasonable. Interesting. Well, that's kind of where we are. Yeah, and then there's the whole thing about, I don't want to hear your side of it. Right. (31:58) And loyalty to your brand and all that stuff, which is unfortunately where I think we are with a lot of this stuff. It's just, hey, I got to be loyal to my party and I can't break away from it in any way because that means I'm giving you a little bit of leeway and a little bit of in that I'm going to accept some of your ideas and stuff like that. (32:16) And that's unfortunately what has, in my opinion, has created a lot of this divide. We're not willing to open up and listen to some of the other sides. Well, I mean, we weren't really willing to listen to this lady either. Yeah, but I think that there's a little bit of also, hey, you know, now is not the time. (32:35) You know, this is not the time nor the place. And you come up to us totally. I mean, there was no reason you needed to come up to us. Exactly right. Right. A simple hi. Hello. Right. (32:51) How you doing? And once I say, hey, man, I'm just not interested right now. OK, then then then move along. And we said that. Right. And then she kept going. We're literally just trying to enjoy our weekend. Yeah. And to be honest with you, none of us were even discussing politics. (33:11) Yeah. So there you go. Right. I mean, we were just have a normal conversation. Right. Nothing political at all. Yeah. But she she went that direction. Yeah. And tried to drag you into it. That's the unfortunate part about it is. (33:26) And you don't want to go there. So, yeah, there's a time and place for it. And, you know, nothing wrong with an open mind and hearing the other hearing the other person's story or their side of it. And if I ask for it, sure. Exactly. Yeah. And if you're open to it. Right. Right. Yeah. (33:41) So anyway, are we all open to Uncle Tom's advice this morning? It's going to be it's going to be a doozy. Yeah. Is it really? Yeah. I haven't even seen it yet. Well, pretty soon. You've been hoarding the sheets. Yours is right there. (33:56) I guess I do have a copy. Yeah. All right. We'll do that in about four minutes. OK. It's a B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason on 100.3 KROCK. It's a Monday morning. How are you doing, Emerald Coast? (34:14) Schuyler Black and Tom Mason. B Team Morning Show brought to you by Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre. Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. It's going to be a real pretty Monday to start the work week. We'll check that forecast and local news here in just a little bit. But the music that's going to start up in the background tells us only one thing. (34:32) It's time for Ask Uncle Tom. Your daily advice, all stitched together by our friends at Buy Tom Cat Custom Apparel. Yeah. Worthy Apparel. It's custom. It's custom. Tom's getting there. I'm learning. (34:48) He's learning his own tagline. By the time we get done with this, I'll have figured it out. You only got two more days. I know. Maybe by Wednesday he'll have Worthy Apparel. It's custom. I'll work on that. I won't even have to start it for him. (35:04) I'll work on that. Oh, I'm looking at this question and I'm starting to think the question came in from some big trumper, Tom. You think? It says 47. Isn't that funny? From Pillow Population Problem. (35:21) It says, Dear Uncle Tom, our bed has 47 pillows. At night we remove 46 of them. So in the morning we put them all back. What is this purpose? I'm glad you picked up on that 47 there, too. (35:36) Yeah, the Pillow Population Problem. A mystery that has baffled husbands since decorative bedding was invented. You approach the bed at night like a climber preparing for ascent. First, you clear the throw pillows. (35:52) Then the square pillows. Then the smaller decorative pillows that appear to have no neck support capability whatsoever. By the time you reach the actual sleeping surface, you've completed light crossfit and built a small fabric fortress in the corner of the room. In your mind, a bed requires two pillows. (36:09) Possibly three if someone has sinus issues. Beyond that, we are entering what science has called cushion theater. These pillows are not for sleeping. They are for presentation. They are there to suggest that at any moment a home decor magazine might kick in the door and demand photographs. (36:26) Their purpose? Atmosphere, sophistication, layers, texture. Words that mean nothing to a man who just wants somewhere to put his head. At night, you relocate them to the chair. A piece of furniture that now exists solely as a pillow refugee camp. (36:43) Gently stacking them like you're handling fragile diplomatic relations. As you carry the fifth square cushion of the evening, you can't help but whisper, Shh, no talking. As if none of them might start alerting the others and trigger reinforcements. (37:00) By pillow number nine, you're negotiating safe passage. By pillow number 12, you're questioning your square footage. And in the morning, you rebuild the display like a man restoring a national monument. Fluff, stack, adjust. Perform the ceremonial karate chop to the decorative ones as if you've completed formal training. (37:19) Because these pillows are not about sleep. They are about presentation. They say we are refined adults. Your two flattened sleeping pillows say we passed out watching TV. So you comply. You reconstruct because marriage isn't about understanding the pillows. (37:36) It's about accepting the fact that your daytime career is interior design. Yeah, that's not the... People talk about, eh, it's a pain in the butt to make the bed in the morning. No, the bed's easy to make. It's the 47 pillows. (37:51) Throwing them back on the bed is the pain. And arranging them appropriately. Like you say, fluff and get them all squared away. And that karate chop, man. You gotta do that karate chop. That's right. (38:06) And there's a technique to that. You just don't hi-ya them. Yeah, you just gotta Mr. Miyagi it. There you go. All right. There's your Ask Uncle Tom advice for this Monday morning. So, think about that tonight. (38:22) Yeah. We're minutes away from the 8 o'clock hour. A quick break and Dan Diamond has local news coming up next on 100% Real. 100.3 KROCK. Full sunshine here in northwest Florida. Right now 61 degrees. (38:37) A high of 82 today. Can you believe that? Yeah, not too shabby for the first Monday of spring. Schuyler Blank and Tom Mason. The B Team Morning Show is on the air. Brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre. As well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. (38:53) And Tom, we're lucky enough to have a special guest in the studio with us this hour. But, I notice he's not in uniform today. It must be his day off. It is my day off. Sometimes we have to sacrifice for it. Yeah, I hear you. (39:09) He knew he was coming to talk to us and he was like, I don't want to have to arrest anybody today. Yeah. So, I'm just going to turn a blind eye. Deputy Chris Fordham with the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office. Joining us here on the air. And, Deputy, you were on with us, I don't know, four, five, six months ago on the Ag Day event. (39:29) I think you had Farm Day or an Ag Day event. We had Farm Day that I came on for. But, I also came for this with some of the Southern Gentleman's Sports Program. We did it for that. Thank you for letting us advertise this as well. (39:44) So, we appreciate all of it. So, tell us. Your next event is coming up here in just a few weeks, actually. I believe three weeks from Friday. Yeah. Friday the 17th of April. So, it's April 17th. (40:00) So the STAR Charity is to put it on, but it's through the Sheriff's Department and everything. Sheriff Aidens, we're doing our third annual clay shoot. It's a charity clay shoot. All the proceeds go to the Florida Sheriff Youth Ranches. If you're not familiar with the Youth Ranches, it's a free ranch event or free event during the summertime. They do it in multiple locations throughout the summer for at-risk youth. And so a couple of years ago, they decided, I guess the federal government decided to cancel their funding because they wouldn't get rid of the church. And so because they wanted to keep that, so now the Sheriff's Association, all 67 counties, try to do some type of fundraising effort to help fund the Sheriff's Ranches. And so the Okaloosa County, when Sheriff Aidens started this, like I said, this is our third annual one, we've been able to raise $30,000 a year so far for the event. (40:50) And so it all goes to the Sheriff Youth Ranches. That way they can get these kids there, give them something to do for a week. And they do it throughout the whole summer. So Okaloosa County kids will go over there, Walton County, Santa Rosa County, and other counties throughout the state. It's a really fun event for the kids to go to. Now, is this an event that's open to the public? Correct. So both the stuff for the Florida Youth Ranches is, but the Sheriff, the thing that we're doing now, the clay shoot. So we do 15 teams in the morning, starting around 8.30. We do 15 teams in the afternoon, starting around 1. So there's two different flights that you can do. And so it's a four man teams, $600 a team. And so we still got plenty of openings for it. We probably got at least 12 team openings right now. And we still have sponsorships stuff available as well if you want to, if somebody wants to sponsor. Okay. (41:40) So they can go to our Okaloosa, it's actually ocsostarcharity.com slash clay shoot. And they can find it on the internet. And then there's a QR code on there. You can scan it or you can just click on it and you can register your team, donate to it, however you want to do it. But it's a super fun event. It's out of the Oaks at Element Range in Holt. And Paul Wright and those guys do a fantastic job out there. If you haven't shot the Oaks, or it's like clay shooting, you're surrounded by oak trees and everything. That's where it gets its name. It's a beautiful site, but it's also nice and it's comfortable. You sit in the gazebo when you shoot and it's shaded for the most part throughout the whole course. So you're not out there blazing in the sun. That's pretty cool. Yeah, very cool. It's cool. How many, how many kids do you usually get out there? Or not kids, but how many participants you usually get out there? So the last two years, we've been full up 30 teams each year. So we're four people per team. So we'll get about 120 shooters. This is the max that we can do. Nice. If you get more than that, what we found on, and we use Paul Wright's guidance on that because he's the expert. They do tournaments all the time. (42:44) And they got, he got us on anything more than that is just too busy for it to fit in through the day. If there's any glitches, you end up shooting late in the afternoon and everything. So it's just easier to do it with 30 teams total. And the way he told us, we were the first a couple of years ago to do 30 teams. Most of them always do 15 teams. So we were a little bit of bold and adventurous and decided to do the max as we could. So it's going to be free meals for all the participants and everything. So we're going to give away prizes. There's medals, first, second, third places for different groups. There'll also be some swag and stuff like that, that'll go along with it. And besides that, it's a fun event. Everybody has a good time shooting. If you can't shoot, clay's good. Like some of them can't and some, I definitely can't, but we get out there and just have fun. It's just like going out to the golf. And when you know, you're not going to be good at golf. You just go out and do it anyway. And this is for a good event is raises money for the star charity to give to the share for your franchise. So it's a fun thing. It's raised 30 grand a year. Yes. The last two years has been fantastic. Yeah, it is really good. It's a good turnout. And that goes to the community too. I mean, Sheriff Aden and I, we always appreciate the community. Okaloosa County community has always been overall really supportive of the Sheriff's office. And so that shows with anytime we do these events and stuff, they really step up and everything. Some people donate things for free. Some donate, you know, for reduced prices and stuff, and it helps us help other people. And that's what this is all about. This is great. (44:16) This is a good community to be in. Again, it comes up on Friday, April 17th. And we're going to, we're going to work on getting this posted on the events tab on our website at krockfwb.com and on the bteamshow.com. But you can actually get the, get all the details right now. If you go to ocsostarcharity.com slash clay shoot. Clay-shoot. Yes. Clay-shoot. Okay. And you go there and you can see all the registration stuff. Because I think the QR code shows up on it. If you, if not, you just click on the link and you can go to it. And like I said, we have plenty, 10 or 12 openings right now for teams. And it's just, you know, $600 a team, four person teams. (45:00) And the clays are already provided for you. So you don't have to bring your own clays, just your own, you know, gun and shells and stuff like that. And just bring some fun, have a good time with it. And raise money for a good cause. Good cause. We're going to be raffling off some guns, raffling off guns and other stuff also. So you might get a chance to win a free gun. So that's the good part. Yeah. So one question for you, if you're, if you're an individual, you want to come up and you want to participate and make a donation, stuff like that. Can you do that? Or do you need to come up with a team? We have done that in the past just because in this course of doing these things, teams sometimes cancel out. And so we've built teams from people around and some people who weren't expecting to shoot that day were like, Hey Bob, come over here. You're going to be on this team. So you can show up and everything. (45:46) I also forgot to mention that one of our primary sponsors is Gum Creek Farms Incorporated. They were one of our platinum sponsors this year and we appreciate them. But yes, show up and we can, if there's an opening, you can be on team. Some guys, because some of the team spots are sponsored by corporations or somewhat. So they may think they have eight workers going to show up and only seven come because of family life, life just sometimes getting in the way. And sometimes people will shoot the first and then they will try to go shoot the second. That's 200 shots. (46:22) That's kind of rough on the shoulder sometimes. We have people who can do it really good and stuff. Yeah. But if it's in that case, if you want to come up and then say, the other person doesn't want to shoot twice because the shoulder already hurts maybe, and then you can shoot in place. If you're an individual want to come, just come up. We'll try to get you in there. (46:39) Fantastic. All right. Well, we're going to work on rescheduling a date for Deputy Fordham to go over on 94.3 FTW with Dan Diamond to talk a little bit more in depth on this. But Deputy, if you would email me all the details and we'll get them posted on our website and push this thing for the next few weeks for you. (46:54) Will do. I appreciate y'all. Thank you so much. Hey, thanks for coming in. All right. It's 8.13. This is Ozzy over the mountain on the Classic Rock Station, 100.3 KROCK. This is the B Team Morning Show. 8.22 is the time. Don't forget, coming up on Saturday, we just talked with Deputy Fordham about the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office Star Program play shoot coming up on April 17th. (47:22) But also coming up this weekend on Saturday is the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office 5K Color Run to benefit the Explorers Program. That's right. It's the third annual event. Happens Saturday morning at the Northwest Florida State College campus in Fort Walton. Not in Iceville, but the Fort Walton campus on MLK. It's a family-friendly, high-energy event featuring a colorful 5K run or walk, food trucks, and vendor booths. (47:50) Registration is just $25. And for more information, you can click on the events tab at thebteamshow.com. Yeah, because low-energy 5Ks don't work very well. They don't. We usually leave those for the assisted living. (48:07) Yeah. It's called sitting on the couch. Well, you can use a walker. Well, you can. Up and down the hall. Making it to 5K like that, man, that's a stretch. Yeah, that's a full-day event. (48:23) That's not 5K, what's that cereal? Special K bowls of cereal? That's not it, no. You've got to be moving, man. You've got to be moving. When I was a little kid, and Special K was doing it, they used to buy a lot of TV ads, Special K. And I honestly thought it was a cereal. You could only get it at Kmart. I thought it was a Kmart cereal. (48:47) Marketing works, huh? It does. It does. Blue Light Special. Martha Stewart. Man, you think about, in the last 25 years, the death of some of these iconic American brands and retailers. It's crazy. (49:07) Yeah, you're talking about Sears, J.C. Penney's. I mean, all these... Blockbuster. Right. Circuit City. Yeah. That have been around that you kind of grew up with, and they're gone. Forever. Yeah. It's amazing. Especially Sears. Sears was one I just wouldn't have expected to go away. (49:26) I mean, that was part of Americana. The Sears and Roebuck buying stuff, mail order, catalog, stuff like that. I remember as a kid, even in the 90s and early 1000s, you'd get the big catalogs for Christmas from Penney's and from Sears. And you'd go through and figure out if there's something you wanted for Christmas out of the catalog. And that was obviously before you had everything online. But it was a different time. (49:59) Right. But you're right. Yeah, all these iconic Americana stores, Kmart, you know, that are gone now. And you just, hard to believe that, you know, something that big can fold up and go away. It definitely highlights the fact that you have to adapt or die, you know. (50:21) That's right. Well, that was the big problem with Kmart is, you know, in the 80s, they started buying all these other brands and retailers outside of the Kmart umbrella. And it tied up all their capital buying these other brands that they stopped investing in their own store, their own Kmart stores. Right. So the look of the store started to suffer. And then, of course, you know, I think it was in 2002 or 2003, there was the merger of Sears and Kmart, which became Sears Holdings. Yeah. And that was just a long 15 years, slow death for both of those brands. (51:01) Right, right. But I do believe, I don't, I can't say for sure, but I do believe there's still like a handful of those full department Sears stores left. Is there? Yeah. I don't know how there were like a half a dozen that were bought out of bankruptcy court by one of the creditors, and they're still operating those. Okay. But yeah, for the most part, you know, the Sears that we knew and loved that had 2,000 stores nationwide now has like five. (51:36) Amazing. It is. It is wild. Are there any other stories that you were wanting to get to? So I got this story about another Florida man story. Oh boy. A Florida man was caught with $2 million worth of stolen iPhones during a traffic stop on a highway. What? Yep. Police pulled a man over in a U-Haul that was linked to an organized retail crime investigation. (52:02) Officers then found $2 million of stolen iPhones in the back. The man was arrested, but it isn't known what charges he's facing at this time. So not a lot of details about the story, but yeah. $2 million is what? Six or eight phones? Something like that? Yeah. In the back of the truck, you use a whole U-Haul for six? Yeah. Six phones. Can't you just put them in your center console? (52:26) Right. Man. You'd think. I wonder how many phones actually equals $2 million. I don't know. I bet we can do some math and find out, though. Well, do we know what model they were? No, we don't. I would assume if just... They're probably the newer ones. I mean, why would you steal old iPhones? But maybe you would. I wouldn't think you would. No. But the value of an iPhone 6 is not the value of an iPhone 17. No, it's not. Not at all. Which is the value of a mid-range car. Exactly. Yeah. You finance them for years. Yeah. You actually do. (53:09) Ridiculous. It's 828. This is the B Team Morning Show. We'll take a break. Foreigner, ELO, Bad Company, and more coming up in the final half hour this Monday morning on 100.3 KROCK. 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station. ELO, strange magic on a Monday morning. Yeah, the magic of March was just wonderful for me last night. Yeah, for you it was great. Yes. (53:34) Like I said, tonight, gators for dinner at the Black Castle. Fried gator. That's cool. Tell you what, a lot of gators tough. Those weren't. (53:50) I think we got them pretty tender now. So I got to ask the question, how much of the team from last year was back for this year's? For Iowa? No, for Florida. Any idea? I think they had like seven or eight of the guys. Okay. So over half the roster. Okay. So they very unexpected then. Yeah. Well, obviously they were ranked number one. Yeah. Well, they were one seed. They won the SEC. They won from like, I want to say the middle of, they went over two months without losing a game. Okay. Middle of January. Well, then they were due. So yeah. Yeah. And Iowa said. (54:40) Well, actually, Vandy beat them in the SEC tournament last weekend. Okay. And then everybody thought, well, you know what, that's the correction they needed to get back on track. Okay. And then they won their first round game by 60 points. Oh, wow. And I'll be honest with you. I was like, yeah, we're going to lose by 30. Yeah. Yeah. But hey, you got to play the game. Yeah, you do. So yes, that's what happened there. I'm just going to be on cloud nine all week. (55:08) But this little story coming out of Pensacola has made some national news on the air PNPs. Yeah. Appropriately named. Yeah. A Florida woman caused over $5,000 in damage after urinating on furniture and other household items in two Airbnb rentals. Two of them. Gross. The woman recorded videos of her urinating on furniture and then posted the clips on sex sites to make money. (55:39) The things people will pay for. My God. The video shows the woman peeing on the rug, TV, coffee maker, and record player, toaster, typewriter, and typewriter. What kind of houses was this? They got a record player and typewriter? Yeah. It's like a step back in time. Yeah. And cheers. The person who owns the homes was given a tip through the Airbnb app that the guests urinated on multiple items. The rental owner then found the videos on an adult content website. I bet that was fun going and looking for those. And what do you search for? I know. You start to question, hey, who gave me this tip? Yeah. The woman has since been arrested and charged with criminal mischief. And if you see her mug, she looks like she's proud of herself. Yeah, she does. Interesting. There's a lot to this story. First of all, the fact that somebody was watching and happened to recognize the Airbnb, so they notified the owners of it. That's one thing that is somewhat strange. The fact that they had a record player and a typewriter. Yeah, that as well. A little outdated. So there's a lot to this story that brings up a lot of questions. (57:00) It's kind of interesting. Yeah. You wonder if the TV had bunny ears. There you go. You wonder if the coffee maker was just a French press. Yeah. And if the person I'm not even going to go there, I'm going to leave that one alone. The suspect was identified as a 31 year old Nicolette Cuff. (57:21) Yeah. Pensacola. Okay. So, okay. Was she local? Yeah. Do you know she was local? Yeah. Pensacola area. I didn't see that. I didn't get any details about that in what I had up. So I'm just curious, why was she in Pensacola? Was it specifically to do this? I don't know. Yeah. I don't know. I'm going to look and see if she was actually from Pensacola because I know she was arrested by Pensacola police. Right. But anyway, kind of a disgusting story there. It is. Kind of gross. (57:58) But we're dwelling on it, you know? We are. Yeah. I don't think there's any fetish there. No. If you're listening and you're like, oh, these guys are talking a long time about this. No, not at all. We're more interested in the rabbit ears on the TV. And understand, we were asking like, what do you search for just for a friend? Just for a friend. (58:18) 100.3 KROCK, the Classic Rock Station. Bad Company's Rock and Roll Fantasy. It's 8.53. We are out of time. Man, this day flew by. It did. It just did. It went really fast. We had a guest, which was nice, but still, it went fast. No time at all. I can't believe how fast these shows go with you. As opposed to the dreary, long, drawn out. Yeah, look at Bobby. It's like a kindergarten waiting for summer vacation. Checking the clock every 42 seconds. My teacher bringing out a ruler and tapping it on the desk and saying, time will pass. Will you? That's good. I haven't heard that one. That's a new one. There you go. Every once in a while, I got something on my sleeve. (59:14) Glad. You know, it's also educational coming in here. Learn something new every day. Is it? Yeah. I can learn you. All right. We're out of time. Schuyler Black and Tom Mason saying goodbye for now. I want to thank our sponsors, including Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi and Miramar Beach. We will see you all back here tomorrow morning, bright and early at six. Do it all over again. Yeah. Ready to rock and roll, man. (59:39) Enjoy the beautiful Monday weather. Sunshine's 82 this afternoon. So see you back here tomorrow morning. I'm Schuyler Black. He's Tom Mason. Enjoy your Monday, everybody, and keep those radios locked on 100.3 KROCK. And that's a wrap on today's B Team Redux.
