National Tailor's Day: When Civilization Hangs by a Thread (and a $40 Waistband Fix)
Description
We learned that civilization is basically held together by tailors and spite, watched California accidentally lean red (chaos loves company), and discovered that a third of Obamacare enrollments might be straight-up fraud—because apparently guardrails are for suckers and budgets are for dreamers.

Show Notes
Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell kicked off another Hump Day morning on 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station serving Fort Walton Beach and the Emerald Coast — brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, Okaloosa Gas, and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. We stumbled through the weather (81 degrees, light winds, Bobby pulling numbers out of his bum), then dove headfirst into the National Day calendar: National Tailor's Day (a salute to the people who fix what donuts did to your waistband), National Itch Day (scratch all you want, the real irritation is your own choices), Repeat Day (yesterday wasn't embarrassing enough, so run it back), and Impersonate Authority Day (policy said loudly enough that nobody asks what it means). We also reminded everyone that the Fisher House Helping Heroes Gala is September 10th at Henderson Beach Resort — tickets are on sale now at thebteamshow.com.
Local news hit a little harder this morning: nurses at Twin Cities Hospital (HCA Fort Walton-Destin) held an informational picket Tuesday, demanding safe staffing ratios and better workplace violence protections. One ICU nurse said she's regularly caring for three critical patients at a time; an ER nurse claimed she had 19 patients during one 12-hour shift. HCA responded with the usual corporate-speak about "industry standards and regulatory requirements," but the nurses aren't buying it. Bobby, ever the union skeptic, suggested picketing instead of working overtime was "counterproductive" — and we moved on before things got too spicy. Also on the docket: human remains found on Eglin Air Force Base were identified as John J.T. Watson, missing since 2015, and the Brooks Bridge replacement project is now delayed (shocking absolutely no one).
We also covered some national weirdness: California — yes, California — might be leaning red after yesterday's primaries. Republican Steve Hilton led the governor's race, and former Hills star Spencer Pratt came in second in the L.A. mayoral race behind incumbent Karen Bass (who's underwater after her wildfire response). Pratt's quote? "God wanted five more months of me exposing all of Karen Bass's failures." Meanwhile, Dr. Oz revealed that up to 35% of Obamacare enrollments might be fraudulent — a staggering number that somehow surprises no one who's been paying attention. Eliminate the fraud, balance the budget? One can dream.
Ask Uncle Bobby tackled a question from "Captain Trash Grab McGee" about joining a neighborhood cleanup. Bobby's advice? Show up early, act like field marshal of cleanliness, assign zones like you're planning an invasion, and introduce creative disorder. "The trash will come back," he said, "but the memory of you running that cleanup like a tiny, polite coup will linger like fresh paint on a humid day." Also: Lynn Fair from Mid-South Bank stopped by to promote their Summer Fair on Friday, June 12th (12–3 p.m.) — free food, games, ice cream from Culver's, and an appearance from the Emerald Coast Science Center (snakes included, much to Bobby's horror). It's all part of the Okaloosa Saves program, teaching kids to save money and torture their parents. We also spent way too much time talking about Bobby's theater candy addiction (Nerds, Smarties, Spree, Sweet Tarts) and his 60-pound weight loss since October. No processed sugar, just rice cakes and existential dread.
Friday morning, we're broadcasting live from the Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce First Friday Coffee event downtown — sponsored by Frank and Karen Bennett with Lone Depot. Come say hi, grab some coffee, and watch us fumble through a remote broadcast. Until then, keep on rocking, keep on rolling, and never settle for the ordinary. The B Team is out.

(00:01) Here's today's B Team Redux. Foghat in Slow Ride on 100.3 KROCK. (00:17) Take it easy. That's right. Good job. You're welcome. It's like you just heard the song. I'm just trying to help. You're full of helpfulness. That's what I do. Good morning. It's hump day. Good morning. (00:32) Seventy... I was going to say 78 degrees, but that's not right. It's not right. 81 our high this afternoon. You got me all flustered now. You're welcome. Hey, you're listening to the B Team Morning Show, brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill. (00:48) Our friends over at Okaloosa Natural Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Good job, Bobby. That's right. Keep on rolling. I'm Bobby Derell. He's Schuyler Black. He's trying to figure out what's going on this morning. It's 81 degrees outside with light and variable wind. No, it's not. Rising up to... (01:03) Now he's just pulling it out of his bum. Like they would know. Rising up to... Most folks that have a vehicle newer than 1995 models have a thermometer in the car. A humometer? (01:18) They're not called thermometers. All right. We are the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Derell. Hump Day Wednesday. Hump Day! And it's a national holiday for my wife. National Tailor's Day. Yeah, not that kind of tailor. (01:33) This is the kind of tailor that charges you $40 to fix what the donut did to your waistband. Oh. I've spent a lot of that in the last year with that damn Pollux costume. National Tailor's Day is that annual reminder that civilization is basically a thin layer of fabric keeping us from becoming a livestock. (01:53) We act like online. You know, look, it's a salute to the people who stare down your medium-ish body and through math, pens, and quiet judgment turn chaos into something that seems like it can line up. (02:08) See, we pretend it's about craftsmanship, tradition, and dignity, but it's really about panic management. You know, weddings, job interviews, funerals, and that one suit you swear still fits if you don't breathe. So take a moment to respect the tailor because without them, you'd be out here wearing regret held together by hope and a button that's one sneeze away from freedom. (02:33) I'm hanging on by a thread. This is the B Team Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. Now we're in mid-season form. Oh, is that what it is? Yeah, just needed a little extra priming this morning. Good morning, everybody. (02:48) It's Help Day Wednesday. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell sniffling over there on Mic 2. I know. Try not to. You know, I've gotten so many comments from people the last few weeks. God, does he ever blow his nose? Yeah, constantly. (03:04) Constantly. It's that time of year, man, having allergies in the South. It sucks. The Fisher House Helping Heroes Gala is coming up on September 10th, and tickets are on sale. This is an annual event that always sells out, and this year it's being held at the Henderson Beach Resort out in Destin. (03:21) We've got the link to buy those tickets for you on our website. Just click on the Events tab at thebteamshow.com. So, again, that's the 19th annual Helping Heroes Gala on September 10th. Well, today on the National Day calendar, we celebrate all you itches out there. (03:41) Yeah. National itch day. That's right. This is the holiday for the people who can't sit still, can't commit, and think scratching counts as personal growth. I don't really notice a big difference between the word with or without the B. (03:56) Yeah. Yeah, okay. Well, National Itch Day is a proud little date on the calendar where we stop pretending we're in control and admit the human body is basically a haunted house with skin. See, look, you celebrate by noticing every tag scene, pollen cloud, and phantom mosquito bite like your nerves are running a neighborhood watch, right? (04:14) Some folks use it as a reminder to check allergies, swap detergents, hydrate, maybe stop rolling around in whatever you call outdoor fun. But mostly it's a public service announcement from the universe. Scratch all you want, but the real irritation is usually your own choices. (04:30) It's National Itch Day. Speaking of irritation, this just shown up in my Facebook feed, and it's somebody that bastardized a Bloody Mary. Oh. They put with the pickle. (04:45) You can do bacon. Yeah. You can do Narda jokes, olives, cheese. No, they threw a damn hot dog on there. Yeah, suddenly sounded like a Forrest Gump for a minute there. (05:00) Well, you got you got you got. I didn't say anything about shrimp. All right, let's take a break. It's The B Team morning show on 100.3 KROCK. A look at your marine forecast is next. (05:15) There's more here than meets the ear. 100.3 KROCK. The Planet P project in Wyoming on the classic rock station. 100.3 KROCK. I say that every single morning. Why do I do this show with you? (05:30) Hey, we are going to be doing the show together on location Friday morning. That's right. That's right. Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce. Their monthly first Friday coffee event, downtown Fort Walton. We'll be out there on location chatting with Ted, probably Frank and Karen Bennett with the Lone Depot. (05:50) And we'll have to see how this works out. We might do it on a more regular basis because it just takes one small moment of show with Ted for you to remember why you love me so much more. Don't be talking about Ted Corcoran like that. (06:08) Oh, that's right. I'm sorry. I forgot he was your new best friend. Not on the air. But we are looking forward to it. Friday morning from 7 till 9 we'll be out there broadcasting live, chatting with local civic leaders, non-profits and business owners alike about different things happening here in our great community. (06:29) So looking forward to doing that on Friday morning. But we've got business to tend to at the moment on the National Day calendar. It's repeat day. I'm sorry, what? It's repeat day. I'm sorry, what? It's repeat day. (06:44) I'm sorry, what is it? Repeat day. Repeat day. What, what, huh? Can you check your damn ears? I was just going to see how many times I could get you to repeat it. Well, we can keep going. Hey, let me ask you this. Pete and repeat are sitting on a log. Pete and repeat are sitting on a log, got it. (07:00) Pete falls off. Who's left? Repeat. Okay, Pete and repeat are sitting on a log. Yeah. Pete falls off. Who's left? Repeat. Pete and repeat are sitting on a log. I got you. Now, Pete fell off. (07:15) Who's left? Repeat. Oh, my God. How many times do I have to? Pete and repeat. Am I wrong? Am I wrong? Am I not picking up something here? Sorry. I think we've worn that one out now. Okay. Do we even have time to do this? No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. (07:30) No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. No, we don't. Do we even need to explain it? Look, this is the holiday for people who talk so much they need to ... They need an annual excuse to say the same damn dumb thing twice. (07:52) Repeat day is that glorious little calendar prank where you wake up and decide yesterday wasn't embarrassing enough. So you run it back like a busted highlight reel. Same routine, same conversation, same can you believe it's already nonsense, only now you're doing it on purpose, which is the most honest thing most people do all year. (08:11) So look, the rules are simple. Repeat what you did, pretend it's tradition, and act surprised when your brain starts filing a restraining order. It's not here to fix your life, sweetheart. It's here to show you the parts you keep re-watching whether you meant to or not. (08:29) Repeat day. There you go. All right, well, we're going to take a look at news here in just a little bit. But first, it's Whitesnake. Here I go again on the B Team Morning Show with 100.3 KROCK. Rare Earth, and I just want to celebrate. (08:44) What are we celebrating? I don't know. Is there another holiday to celebrate today? There's always one. I'm Schuyler Black sitting across from Sheriff Eric Aden this morning on Impersonate Authority Day. Oh, yeah, yeah. Finally a holiday for people who say policy loudly enough and hope nobody asks what it means. (09:04) You're not Sheriff Aden, are you? Impersonate Authority Day is that special little calendar scam where grown adults play dress up as competence. They see how far a confident tone and a clipboard can drag the rest of us. You don't need a badge, a title, or a conscience. (09:22) Just the audacity to say policy like it's a law of nature and watch people start apologizing for existing. See, it's a celebration of the oldest truth in modern society. It's just posture with better lighting. So you keep it harmless, you keep it legal, and you pay attention because the real lesson isn't how to fake authority, it's how often authority is already faking it. (09:45) There you go. Impersonate Authority Day. Hey, coming up this Sunday, it's the Love the Locals Luau for ASHA, the Advanced Sacred Hope Academy Autism School right here in Fort Walton Beach. It's being held at the Alice out in Destiny. On Sunday afternoon from 3 until 7 p.m. and the event will feature island inspired entertainment, drinks, food, raffles, and VIP experiences while raising money to support the children at the Advanced Sacred Hope Academy. We've got more details and the link to purchase those tickets for Sunday's event on our website. Just go to thebteamshow.com and click on the events tab. Thebteamshow.com built especially for the LGBs. That's right. (10:30) Larry, Gary, and Barry. All right, minutes away from 7 o'clock, a quick break and more. Nonstop Classic Rock is coming up next on 100.3 KROCK. Aldo, Nova, and Fantasy on the classic rock station, 100.3 KROCK. The fantasy of Bobby Dewrell is to do this show with me every single morning and that's why he continues to show up. Clearly that's what it is because I'm certainly not doing it for the pay. Fair, fair point. 74 degrees, partly cloudy skies this morning, a high of 84 this afternoon. Yeah, actually the next few days low to mid 80s for the highs. So although he started out with a couple days in the 90s this week, a little bit of a reprieve from that and we're gonna see plenty of breeze. East winds 15 to 20 the next several days too. So that'll be interesting. We'll check your full forecast in just a little bit. We are the B Team Morning Show right here on 100.3 KROCK. Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub and Grill in Navarre as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Plenty to get to this morning as far as local news including remains found of a man on Eglin Air Force Base as well as now a delayed completion date for the Brooks Bridge replacement project. Oh wow, it's gonna be delayed. And you may have seen some folks up at Twin Cities Hospital yesterday picketing and yeah, going on strike and protesting. Yeah, we'll talk about that and what they were doing here in just a little bit. What do you have on on your radar this morning? Absolutely nothing. Perfect, beautiful. It's my contribution. Thank you, thank you Bobby. (12:30) I don't want to get in the way of your news. Well, Casey Jones this morning for our local resident deadhead named Tade. Tade Wolf. That's right, yeah. I just see her in a van following them all over the the US. You think she was a deadhead? Well, you keep calling her a deadhead, that's what I keep picturing. But like a groupie deadhead? I mean there's only one deadhead. The deadheads were the deadheads. They hopped in the vans and followed them around. Everywhere? Everywhere. Smoking the reefer? No comment on that. They were in a van and followed the dead around. Puff Puff Pass. Good morning everybody. How you doing? It's the B Team Morning Show. Scatter Black and Bobby Dewrell. Did you go to school with any deadheads though? College, yeah. Yeah. (13:21) Yeah, I actually had two guys that dropped out of school and followed them around for a year and a half. Are you serious? Yeah, I'm not kidding. That's obsession. That's right. It's something. I'll bet you knew some guys that were, you know, did the same thing with the Beastie Boys too, didn't you? No. (13:38) No. No. Okay. Figured they might have been like hardcore Beastie Boy groupies. No. No, you don't. That's not something you hear every day. Well, you may have seen it if you're in the Niceville or Valpe area. Nurses at HCA Hospital, or actually right here in Destin Fort Walton, held an informational picket Tuesday morning. The nurses gathered outside the hospital to highlight their concerns for patient safety, including short staffing. Now, in September, the nurses unionized to and have been negotiating their first contract since the beginning of the year. (14:18) Nurses say they have not seen results to their demands for safe staffing or adequate workplace violence protections. One nurse, Jan Riley, says we shouldn't have to fight for basic human rights, who's on the ICU staff at the Destin Fort Walton Hospital. We shouldn't have to fight for safe staffing ratios, but HCA continues to understaff and then they try to make everybody believe that it's because nobody's available to work or there's a nursing shortage, and that's not it. Now, HCA Fort Walton Destin Hospital provided Channel 3 WEAR News a statement yesterday, and they said that activity like this sometimes occurs when a union and an employer are engaged in negotiations for a contract, as they currently are with the National Nurses United Union. Their staffing levels are safe and appropriate and compliant with both industry standards and regulatory requirements. Now, several nurses say they are regularly understaffed, with ICU nurses claiming they are often carrying for three critical patients at a time. Riley also said every day we're concerned for our ability to take care of the critical patients that we get when we're chronically understaffed. One emergency department nurse said she was responsible for 19 patients during one 12-hour shift. So, anyway, if you saw the nurses picketing yesterday here in Fort Walton by the hospital, that's what it's in regards to. So, there you go. Anyway, I know that was a little bit of a hot-button issue on some local social media pages yesterday, so shout out to Channel 3 for covering the story, and we wanted to pass it along to you as well. Yeah, so, way to go, nurses. You know, you can't care for everybody, so instead of putting in overtime, let's picket. Makes sense. (16:18) Counterproductive, right? Yeah, sure. Uh-huh. You know, you're not a big fan of unions, are you? Not a big fan of unions, and I also think that there's certain unions that should not be allowed the ability to strike when you're in public service. Sorry. Yeah, isn't that, what do they call those? Essential workers? (16:39) Yep. There you go. All right, we're gonna take a break, pay a couple bills. We're about 20 minutes out from Ask Uncle Bobby this morning, plus we got some other stories that we got to dig into as well. Yeah, big elections yesterday across several states. Surprise out of California. Mm-hmm. (17:04) California leaning red? Yeah. Imagine that. Something to get to here in just a little bit. It's 727. A look at weather is next. Forerunner and jukebox hero on 100.3 KROCK, the Classic Rock Station, it's the B Team Morning Show, Schuyler Black and Bobby Dewrell. Bobby, I've been known to be a jukebox hero at some local watering establishments, watering holes. (17:32) Yeah. Mm-hmm. What's my go-to? What do you mean? What do I usually pick on the jukebox? Well, you know, it depends, actually. I actually don't remember. Well, it's usually nothing that we play on there. No, I know, that's nothing here. (17:51) Well, yesterday there were a number of elections across the country for primaries, and one of the surprises actually comes out of a state we constantly make fun of. Yeah? Yeah. Mm-hmm. The state of California. And it's interesting, because primary election results thus far are showing a shift to the right. Hmm. Yeah. California governor election yesterday. It's four candidates running, and Republican Steve Hilton had the biggest share of the votes. Democrat Xavier Becerra came in second place. Democrat Tom Steyer came in third with just around 20 percent, and then Chad Bianco with just over 11 percent of the vote tallied so far. But the runoff will happen with the top two vote-getters. So it could be Steve Hilton and Xavier Becerra as the two in the runoff election. And so many times in California you end up with two Democrats running in the general election for the runoff. So maybe a shift to the right there, as many of the inland counties, now the coastal counties with the exception of San Diego, are all, you know, very blue. But a lot of the inland counties, Inland Empire, Central Valley, right up through, you know, Bakersfield and Fresno, very, very solid red right now. So we'll keep an eye on that as the official results continue to get tallied. And then Los Angeles mayoral election race. The incumbent Karen Bass is well underwater. (19:46) Obviously many folks there are very unhappy with her and her response to the wildfires that happened last year and just the lack of Well, the lack of care that she's shown. She came in first place in the L.A. mayoral election yesterday at 36.5 percent, but Spencer Pratt came in second place with 29 percent of the vote, with Nithya Raman at third place and 21 percent of the vote. So the top two vote getters move on to a runoff, and former Hills star Spencer Pratt has a chance to take down Karen Bass for L.A. mayor. And when he was asked how he was feeling last night regarding last night's election results, Pratt replied, well, obviously God wanted five more months of me exposing all of Karen Bass's failures. So anyway, very interesting stuff coming out of some primary elections last night across the country, but especially in the state of California. So maybe there is a little bit of sense there. You know, that's cute. Ask Uncle Bob, he's coming up next on KROCK. 100.3 KROCK, the classic rock station. There's The Who, and I'll tell you what, that song, My Generation, just sounds like a bunch of boomers. It just sounds like a bunch of boomers. Well, probably because they are. 74 degrees right here in Destin, Fort Walton Beach, a high today of 84, mostly cloudy skies across the area forecasted today. But east winds, a little bit breezy out there, gusting up to 25 today, sustained at 15 to 20. So just a heads up on that. If you are heading out on the water today, it may be a little choppy in some areas. All right, well, I got to fire up this music because it's that time. Yeah. What time? Time for Uncle Bobby. Oh, it is? (21:58) Yeah, your daily advice. Why? Says who? Well, it says the clock. What if I'm not filling up to it today? Okay. News is next. All right. Ask Uncle Bobby your daily advice, all stitched together by our friends at Buy Tomcat Custom Apparel. That's right. Tomcat Custom Apparel reminding you that 250 years later and America still celebrates freedom the same way. That's cookouts, fireworks, and questionable decisions after dark. America 250 is coming up and it seems like a pretty good excuse to get matching patriotic shirts from Buy Tomcat Custom Apparel. (22:39) Hmm. There you go. Well, today, Uncle Bobby, your question comes in from Captain Trash Grab McGee. I actually like that name. Dear Uncle Bobby, I'm thinking about joining a voluntary neighborhood cleanup, but I'm not sure my effort will really make a difference. So should I do it? You know, you should absolutely do it, but not because it'll fix anything, because it, it hands you a reflective vest and a social permission to rearrange reality while everyone claps. See, look, look, let me, let me save you the heartbreak. Okay? (23:16) One Saturday with a grabber stick is not going to defeat entropy, neglect, and whatever emotional support pothole your neighborhood has been nurturing. Look, that said, cleanups are not about trash. They're about narrative and you get to ride it in broad daylight. See, people do not follow leaders. They follow confidence with a clipboard. So you got to show up early and act like you were appointed field marshal of cleanliness, right? You start assigning zones, like you're planning an invasion and you speak with a calm certainty of a person who has never been wrong in public. We all know those people. Then you introduce some creative disorder. See, you got to move the meeting point two houses down and watch who adapts versus who melts, because this is your real map of the neighborhood. See, if anyone asks why, well, you just say it's for flow. And then you stare into the middle distance like you're, like you're seeing the future. And if you want your effort to make a difference, then you got to stop aiming for clean sidewalks and aim for controlled panic. Announce a surprise beautification audit at the end and hand out fake awards for things like most improved curb appeal and best commitment to not knowing where the trash bags are. See, nothing changes behavior faster than the threat of being perceived. And by the time you're done, well, the stretch will be slightly cleaner and the social hierarchy will be completely scrambled, which is the only kind of progress you can count on. See, the trash will come back. Sure, sure. But the memory of you running that cleanup like a tiny, polite coup, well, it's going to linger in fresh paint on a humid day. And that's your answer, Mr. Captain Trash Grab McGee. (25:12) All right. That's your advice today from Uncle Bobby. We do ask Uncle Bobby every weekday morning, right around 745, all stitched together byTomCat Custom Apparel. By Tomcat Custom Apparel, where the apparel is made for you, customly. News is next. Bob Seger and Hollywood Nights on 100.3 KROCK, the Classic Rock Station. Good morning, everybody. It's Hump Day Wednesday. (25:40) Halfway through the work week. Hey, Bobby and I are going to be on location doing the B Team Morning Show from First Friday Coffee coming up on Friday morning. Yeah, that'll be fun. Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce. Shout out to Frank and Karen Bennett, the Bennett team with Lone Depot for sponsoring not only the event this Friday for the chamber, but also sponsoring our live remote coverage. So, shout out to them. Looking forward to doing that on Friday morning from 7 till 9. And of course, thank you to our own Michael Knight for being our board op and producer of the broadcast coming up that afternoon. All right. Well, how about this? As many as 35% of enrollments in the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, might not be legit. Well, who would have ever thought? (26:37) That's according to administrator of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, CMS, which is Dr. Oz. When asked about expired Obamacare subsidies and whether there are any policy adjustments he would like to see, Oz emphasized that the number of people on Obamacare has more than doubled over the last decade. Now, let's take a step back. (27:01) 2015, 16, 17, 18, and 20, there were 9 million people on Obamacare. 9 million. Today, it's more than 20 million. And what happened was we completely took the guardrails off. And I know this because I'm working in the agency that actually was told to take the guardrails off, says Oz. He said, because there wasn't an earnest desire to keep track of whether people were appropriately on it or not. But more importantly, just get the number to where we all feel good about ourselves. We had massive increases of people joining the program. (27:33) So, yeah, Oz says that the federal government implemented a rule two weeks ago to target fraud in the ACA program. But 35% of the people using the Affordable Care Act may not even be legit. Isn't that wild? After everything we've heard of the fraud coming out of Minnesota and California, even fraud now being reported in the state of Texas with even some Somalian fraud down there. Just incredible, man. It's almost like if we could eliminate the fraud across this country, you think we could balance the damn budget? One would hope. I mean, it's just incredible. So, anyway, that was something that caught my eye this morning, that over a third of ACA enrollments might be fraud. That's just absolutely asinine. That's crazy. (28:38) The BT Morning Show is on the air, brought to you by our friends at Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. Coming up in just a bit, the Eagles and Red Riders lunatic fringe. But first, Van Halen. (28:56) Why can't this be love, Bobby? Why can't it? I don't know. I don't know. It's 100.3 KROCK. Good morning and thanks for dialing in. The Classic Rock Station. It's the BT Morning Show. Schuyler Black and Bobby Durrell brought to you by Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas and Outkast Sushi over in Miramar Beach, out at Eglin Air Force Base this morning. 75 degrees, a high today of 84. Actually seeing some sunshine this morning, but we expect some increasing clouds here this afternoon. That full forecast coming up in just a little bit. Bobby, in the studio with us this break, Lynn Fair from Mid-South Bank. And she's here to talk about, well, the event that she named after herself, their Summer Fair. Yeah, I noticed that. I did, too. Well, I get pressed somehow. Well, that's coming up next Friday. It is. Nine days from now. Nine days from now. And there's going to be... (29:59) What kind of food are we doing? We're doing hot dogs, nachos, and Culver's is providing ice cream. Oh, yeah. The Culver's frozen custard is hard to beat. It is, and so they so kindly donated some ice cream. (30:16) This is for the kiddos to come out and celebrate that they're out of school and torturing their parents. And it's part of our celebration of Okaloosa Saves. Tell me a little bit about the Okaloosa Saves program. Okaloosa Saves partners with banks like us and credit unions to help encourage parents to teach their children to save. (30:41) So for every entry or deposit or opening an account, they get an entry into a drawing. And then the winner gets chosen to go to the county commissioner's office and meet the commissioners. (31:01) And they get $50. So can Bobby bring me? It's 17 and younger. You're young. You're not that young. I almost have to cut my age in half. No, you can come and eat. And we have games. (31:17) And the Elmhurst Coast Science Center is going to be there. Paws is going to bring some lovely kittens and dogs. Bobby can get cats. Yes, yes. (31:32) And the Elmhurst Coast Children's Advocacy Center is going to be there, also handing out information for parents. So it's grown. We might even have some music. Oh, really? (31:47) We might have some youth in the area playing music and showing their talents off. Oh, okay. Well, we'll have the kids. That's fine. I figured you were asking Bobby and I to do karaoke or something. Yeah, nobody wants that. I was going to say, I don't think people would come. (32:05) Well, it sounds like a fun event. It's next Friday, June 12th, out at Mid-South Bank. But an opportunity for the kids to learn some good saving habits. Yes, come and see us. For people who don't know where we are, we're right after you hit Lowe's. (32:21) And we're going to be 12 to 3. We're doing a little bit later. And so, 12 to 3, and come bring your appetite, games, prizes, snakes, dogs and cats. (32:38) I don't think we'll be there for the snakes. Dogs and cats are fine. I'm good without the... But the Summer Fair, it's going on. It's a free, family-friendly event. They're going to have food. They're going to have hot dogs, and you said nachos. And of course, ice cream, frozen custard provided by Culver's. (32:57) And it's really hard to go wrong with Culver's frozen custard. It just hits another level. It does. Just extra creamy. And as we said across from our guy here that has diabetes. That's right. Diabetes. (33:13) Diabetes Bob. It's not in my wheelhouse anymore. Wow. Isn't that a bummer? What can you eat, Bobby? It's shoe leather. Otherwise known as jerky. That's right. No, I've done pretty good. I haven't really had any processed sugar or sweets since October. (33:33) Wow. That was his birthday present. And I'm down. I was at 221 this morning. Very cool. That's almost 60 pounds. So you basically eat cardboard boxes and you've lost some weight, is what you're saying. Yeah, rice cakes are awesome. They taste so great. (33:50) Wow, that's a great commercial. Quaker Oats says thank you. I mean, for the most part I eat normal. I just try to watch what I eat. Try to pay more attention. I'm a huge fan of theater candy. (34:05) That was always my thing. Okay, what was your favorite? Oh man, I could down a big old theater box of nerds. Just not even think about it. Smarties. You are what you eat. Oh man, I freaking love Smarties. Spree. (34:20) Sweet Tarts. What about the lemon ones? Sour Patch? Or was that just passe because I'm old? No, I could do the lemon ones. I loved the Mike and Ikes. Oh yeah. Hot Tamales. So no chocolate in this. No, that was not a chocolate. It was theater candy. (34:36) If you could take sugar, compress it together and put food coloring on it, I would eat it. That's so awesome. Don't you do the Sour Patch thing too? Yeah, I would do Sour Patches. I love Skittles. (34:51) Especially the Sour Skittles. Those are quite awesome. Sweet Tart Jelly Beans. I'd go down on a bag of those in a heartbeat. Wow, okay. My mouth is watering talking about all this. Now I get Russell Stover Sugar Free candy. (35:06) There you go. Hey, those Russell Stover Sugar Free Pecan Clusters are pretty good. They're not bad. And I do a lot of the Werther's. They do Werther's Sugar Free. No, because I don't do sugar anymore either. Do you have nut allergies or anything like that? (35:24) No. You haven't become a vegan? No. Okay. No, I grew up on a farm. Look, if I come in one day and say I'm a vegan, there's a gun in my glove box. I want you all to take me out to Eglin Reservation and use it. Oh my gosh. Wow. (35:40) Okay. Because I have gone crazy. I have lost my damn mind. All right. All right. He still eats hamburgers. He still eats hamburgers, just not the bun. No, I mean, so that's just it. I mean, honestly, when you look at it, something like that, you know, yeah, I'll eat a hamburger with a bun. (35:58) But, I mean, you know, I haven't become a monk. I'm no Mark Grimlin. Yeah. That's a different level. All right. All right. But I do try to pay attention to what I eat. But, you know, it's definitely been a challenge. (36:14) I grew up Southern, so I know how to cook everything Southern style, which is the worst thing you can do for diabetes. And so the only other thing that I know how to cook is Italian, which is the second worst thing you can do when you're diabetic. Yeah, because that's hot. Yeah. All right. Since we're talking about healthy breakfast food, what was your favorite cereal growing up? (36:34) Oh, man, that's hard, because I would bounce back and forth between so many. But probably Frosted Mini Wheat. I love Frosted Mini Wheat. Really? And then when Honey Bunch's votes came out, I thought that was pretty good. The HBOs. (36:49) Yeah, that's right. As I got older, that was it. But that wasn't, like, my favorite. My favorite was Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter. See, I can't do Cap'n Crunch. Absolutely. Absolutely. Too damn much sugar. And I didn't mind some Fruity Pebbles. (37:04) And actually, actually, if you want a little half and half on the Cap'n Crunch and the Fruity Pebbles, that was the way to go. Really? Yeah. Okay. Kind of like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? Almost. Almost, yeah. And you always did it for the toy. Kids are ripped off nowadays. (37:19) They don't do that. I don't think they do toys anymore in the cereal. Well, and if they do, they put it on the outside of the bag. Because it's easier. Yeah. You know, I remember when I got to the toy, if my parents were around, they would grab the toy, go on top of the refrigerator, and I'd get the toy when I finished the box of cereal. (37:43) Then you could go get a new box of cereal. But then I could have the toy. Or you'd fight over it. That was another thing. You'd fight over the toy. I was an only child, so I didn't have that problem. It was kind of weird when I fought with myself over the toy. (37:58) That's why you are the way you are. Hey, I was an only child, too. Do I act like him? No. You're way less mature. Wow, I was the only one that was abused by brothers. (38:13) Okay. Well, don't miss out on the fun at Mid-South Bank. A great opportunity for parents to take the kids or grandparents to take the kids to Mid-South. Learn a little bit about saving, but have some good grub and ice cream. Maybe see some pups and kittens. (38:30) Yes, and a snake or two. Not myself, but somebody may want to see a snake. Okay. Not a snake lover, you guys. No, I hate snakes. No, don't do snakes. It's going to hurt the people over at the Emerald Coast Science Center to hear you say that, but it's okay. (38:51) No, it won't. They still laugh about the fact that I was over at the Emerald Coast Science Center. It was probably about 10 years ago during a tour. We're walking along, and all of a sudden, they're like, oh, and then we have this room. About the time they said reptile room, all the lights shot on, and it was snakes everywhere, and I just backed out of the room. (39:09) It's like Bobby and I's reaction when we were over in Tallahassee a couple months ago. There was a street vendor fair going on, and somebody brought snakes, and we didn't see them. (39:24) Walked up on them. Both of us said expletives at the same time. Did you scream like little girls? I said a dirty word. Maybe two. Coach Taylor's over there just giggling, laughing, thinking it's hilarious. I would have, too. (39:40) Well, Lynn, thanks for coming in. We're going to keep talking about this event. We've been talking about it the last couple weeks as well, so we've got the details for you on it. You can find the events tab at krockfwb.com or at our morning show's website, thebteamshow.com. It's all right there for you. (39:56) It's 832. We've got to take a break and look at what's going on. Schuyler is next on 100.3 KROCK. Raising the bar for rock radio stations everywhere. 100.3 KROCK. 100.3 KROCK. Good morning everybody. It's time for us to get out of here. (40:14) You said that right after they announced it. Well, I know. People were probably confused. Well, I missed the cue. I missed the cue, Bobby. I'm trying to multitask over here. Could have said B Team Morning Show. 100.3 KROCK. I guess it's the B Team Morning Show, but no. (40:30) He came back with 100.3 KROCK. I love how complimentary he is of me. I always feel so good. Good. Then I'm doing my job. I just go home and cry all day. This isn't like any other millennial that talks to somebody from Gen X. You know, I did read a report the other day about Gen X being the most hated generation on both ends. (40:53) Yeah, but what's so funny is nobody will say anything about it because we're supporting everyone. You're not supporting me. Parents are still around. We're taking care of them. Kids still haven't left the house. We're taking care of them. (41:08) You know, if that's the way it's supposed to work, I'll come over to your house and my hands are out. That would make me sound like my grandfather every day. You know, every time I thought I had a nickel, somebody's standing there with their hand out wanting a dime. Yeah, that's a net loss. (41:26) I'll tell you what, we're out of time for the B Team Morning Show. Of course, we've got the B Team Encore Hour coming up in just a little bit. But I appreciate you all dialing in and spending this Wednesday morning with us. Of course, last break we had Lynn Fair from Mid-South Bank in to talk about their Summer Fair coming up next Friday. (41:44) We've got the details for you on that at thebteamshow.com. Thanks to our sponsors, Stripes Pub & Grill in Navarre, as well as Okaloosa Gas at Outkast Sushi in Miramar Beach. We will join you back here for the B Team Show, Thursday-style, Friday eve, tomorrow morning at 6. (42:00) Until then, I'm Schuyler Black. Bobby Dewrell, get us on out. Hey folks, thanks for joining the B Team Morning Show, your leading alternative quality programming right here on the Emerald Coast. Now, we know you have a choice in what you listen to each and every day, and we appreciate the fact that you settled in on this wild ride that we call the Morning Show. But it's come that time of day, we've got to mosey on out of here. (42:18) So you keep on rocking, keep on rolling, never settle for the ordinary. Until the next time, the B Team is out. News this hour brought to you by McCaskill & Company. Well, human remains were found on Eglint Air Force Base property, were identified as those of John J.T. Watson, a Diffuniac Springs man who disappeared back in 2015. (42:41) Now, DNA testing confirmed his identity nearly a decade after he went missing. The discovery brings long-awaited answers to his family and investigators, and authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding his death. Also, the new Brooks Bridge replacement project is now expected to be completed in early... (43:01) And that's a wrap on today's B Team Redux.
