Speaker 4: New Jersey and should fly their flags at half masks,

37
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 4: and anyone who doesn't know Uncle Floyd should go on

38
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 4: YouTube and check them out. It was my hero when

39
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 4: I was a teenager.

40
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: Well, you see, that's interesting. Uncle Floyd died. I announced

41
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: it before. I'm thinking to myself too, a lot of

42
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: well people know who Uncle Floyd. Uncle Floyd touched a

43
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: lot of lives. I'm trying to think if I I

44
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: met him a few times. Actually, remember I used to

45
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: do the Saturday Night Show The Oldie Show. He was

46
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: on that a couple of times. He was a guest.

47
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember. I think I was on the

48
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: Uncle Floyd Show once somewhere in the eighties, and I

49
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: remember doing a some benefit somewhere with him where I

50
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: think I was the MC and he was on the show.

51
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,640

Speaker 5: and kudos to Vincent.

71
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 3: Uh. I want to talk.

72
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 5: About our new governor. What they did, those two clowns

73
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 5: and uh Trenton. They doubled our energy costs. And now

74
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 5: she's going to put a cap on it to be

75
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 5: the hero.

76
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's going to be a mess. But you guys

77
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: are used to it in New Jersey. You keep collecting

78
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: these crazy idiots.

79
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

80
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 5: And uh, when is uh Nick Shirley going to come

81
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 5: to New Jersey. We're sick of the fraud here.

82
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the other problem, you know. New Jersey is

83
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: just waste and fraud and bloat. That's why your taxes

84
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: are so high. If you got Nick Shirley and Elon

85
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: Musking to bring there to clean it up, doge the

86
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: whole thing, your taxes would be about one third of

87
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: what they are now. And if you didn't know who

88
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: this woman was, if I just played this clip here,

89
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: if I didn't tell you who this was, would you

90
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: think this is a governor of a state.

91
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 6: I would encourage everyone to, you know what, have a

92
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 6: great family day at home this weekend. Play some born games.

93
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 6: Don't go out in this.

94
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: Yeah. You see, if you're the mayor or the governor,

95
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: you're supposed to put on that jacket, you know, that snowjacket,

96
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: that official jacket, and sound very serious and lay out everything.

97
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: They'll be over two thousand salt spreaders. We'll be doing this,

98
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: We'll be doing that. You're supposed to sound very official, authoritative,

99
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: like you've got everything planned. You're not supposed to just

100
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: be goofy.

101
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 6: And I would encourage everyone to, you know what, have

102
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 6: a great family day at home this weekend. Play some

103
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 6: born games.

104
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 1: Don't go out we play b games anymore. You do.

105
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: I can't imagine when you got eight million TV channels,

106
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: when you got eight thousand streaming services, when you got

107
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: your phone, your laptop. Who's going to play a board game?

108
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: But I guess people do. Hey, Sunday, you got two

109
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: great football games that will help. Let's go to Mario

110
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing.

111
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: Oh, good morning, Mark, thanks to taking my call. Listen,

112
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: I'm sorry about Uncle Floyd's passing.

113
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Boy, this Uncle Floyd turns out to be the biggest

114
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: story of the day.

115
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 2: It is, and I got to my memories of him

116
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 2: or when I back in the seventies, I was in

117
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: the Army and Fort Dix, and before we went out

118
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: on maneuvers or whatever, we'd sit in the rec room

119
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 2: and everybody, all these soldiers and all their uniforms, we'd

120
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: all be watching Uncle Floyd.

121
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: Well, I can't think of anything more inspiring. Are you

122
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: supposed to be watching like Paton the movie or something?

123
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: But you're watching Uncle Floyd. That's a boy. But a

124
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: lot of people remember this guy. Let's go Bill in Lafayette,

125
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: New Jersey. Bill, how you doing okay?

126
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 3: Mark? I graduated high school with Looney Skip Rooney, who

127
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 3: was a sidekick on the Uncle Floyd's show, and he

128
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 3: would invite me on the show just to watch once

129
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 3: in a while. So I used to bawl at Eagle

130
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 3: Rock and I walked over to the recording studio and

131
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 3: I talked to Skiff and a couple other people, and

132
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 3: they had this guest waiting in the hallway. So I

133
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 3: walked down and I thought it was Tiny Tim, but

134
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: I was mistaken. But they introduced him on the show

135
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: later on and it was Howard Stern. I'm going, oh, yeah,

136
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 3: who the hell is this guy?

137
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: I forgot about that Howard Stern was on the Uncle

138
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: Floyd Show. Yeah, absolutely, back in the eighties. So Uncle Floyd,

139
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: it was Looney Skip Rooney, and then who else was

140
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: on the show. I'm trying to remember.

141
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 3: Mister silly Ye was one of my favorites, the fat

142
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: guy that always eat ate toast at the and a

143
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 3: couple other guys. It's hard to remember, but.

144
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 4: It was a great show.

145
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 3: It was it was silly, it was goofy, it was funny,

146
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 3: it was entertaining, and Loney Skip Rooney was a goof

147
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 3: I actually tied with him as the funniest guy in

148
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 3: the high school, but he beat me out by a

149
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 3: couple of points.

150
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't sound like the bar was too high

151
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: in this high school for that time. All right, well,

152
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Great call. Yeah, so now a lot

153
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: of people remember Uncle Floyd. He passed away at the

154
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: age of seventy four. Hey, when we come back, Steve
