[SPEAKER_02]: And Rob Spiewack.

[SPEAKER_02]: Now here's Mike.

[SPEAKER_05]: Surf's call well Mike that has a story that tape I was going through a box of cassettes figuring out what I could throw away and what I couldn't and I found do you remember in days of radio they made three-minute cassettes just for sending air checks out to clients they were really short and this was one of them and it was surf's handwriting on it he was the program ostensibly the program director at WJF there was an ostensibly he was the program director

[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, but did he really have a lot to do with your content?

[SPEAKER_04]: He didn't have a lot to do with our content, but he certainly had a lot to do with the, you know, run in the show.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, in the music, you're right, you're right.

[SPEAKER_04]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_05]: He had recorded this and it serves beautiful cartoonist like handwriting.

[SPEAKER_05]: It said, surf greeting to Frederick Douglass High School Class of 93.

[SPEAKER_05]: and I picked it up and I said not only is this great, not only is this 23 years old, I'm sorry, 27 years old, but also the fact that I have it means it was never delivered to the students at Frederick Douglass High School.

[SPEAKER_04]: So spell the CERPH-E surf was a, for those of you around the country, was a legendary

[SPEAKER_04]: alternative rock DJs for every responsible for the break of Bruce Springsteen.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, and he was up in the DC area on a station called WHFS.

[SPEAKER_04]: When WHFS was the gold standard for alternative rock and they played stuff that you wouldn't hear anywhere else.

[SPEAKER_04]: And they were really, really avant-garde and very quirky and they had some very quirky discharge.

[SPEAKER_05]: Literally let the DJs choose their own music.

[SPEAKER_04]: which has a little guide, but they bred nice guys except for the owner, they bred no Jake, Jake Einstein.

[SPEAKER_04]: The surf really, I worked for a lot of different program directors over the years and he would be one of the nicest guys I've ever met in the broadcasts,

[SPEAKER_04]: business.

[SPEAKER_04]: I've got that.

[SPEAKER_04]: What I loved about Surf is that he has never changed his personality and his image for the public.

[SPEAKER_04]: He's always been kind of a hip, cool guy, and, you know, Surf's an old man like we all are now, and it's just, you know, he's just, you know, he's just, you know, he's just

[SPEAKER_04]: I probably haven't talked about surf enough that he worked with Don and myself during a very difficult time for any program director to be working with us on that show when we were very, very popular and going through some changes with the company and all that.

[SPEAKER_04]: And I just, I have nothing but good things to say about the guy and that's not a lot of program directors that I found in the past.

[SPEAKER_04]: I think maybe you're right.

[SPEAKER_04]: I'm sorry.

[SPEAKER_05]: Sir, for example, all you know, the best word for him was cool.

[SPEAKER_05]: He was way too well dressed for radio.

[SPEAKER_05]: And he really knew his music and he would play great stuff, but he would never play this.

[SPEAKER_09]: Hi there, attention students.

[SPEAKER_09]: Hi, this is Sir from WJFK, wishing Frederick Douglass High School Class of 1993.

[SPEAKER_09]: Congratulations and have a wonderful wonderful grad night because it is grad season my dad's and grads But he had this sound to his voice.

[SPEAKER_04]: It was just kind of a cool guy and he was always the the cool guy He always wore suits these big 1980s 1990s suits that he would wear I like sir, I like everything about tiny little classic Porsche.

[SPEAKER_05]: That was awesome.

[SPEAKER_04]: Very cool guy And yeah, there's one program director and one general manager that that I could go back Alan Goodman would be the the general manager.

[SPEAKER_04]: Although

[SPEAKER_04]: Unlike Alan Goodman, yeah, there's nothing I would really change about, sir.

[SPEAKER_04]: I would maybe have a make a few adjustments to Alan Goodman during that.

[SPEAKER_04]: Just go go 80s here.

[SPEAKER_05]: Just a couple of tweaks.

[SPEAKER_04]: Just a couple of tweaks that we have there.

[SPEAKER_04]: So welcome to the Michael Mary Show.

[SPEAKER_04]: We are delighted to have you here on what I like to call baseball.

[SPEAKER_04]: Just a couple of tweaks that we have there. [SPEAKER_04]: So welcome to the Michael Mary Show. [SPEAKER_04]: We are delighted to have you here on what I like to call baseball. [SPEAKER_04]: Wednesday, as the whole family is hitting the road, taking the dogs up to Ovido, I think that's the correct pronunciation, Florida, which is northeast of Orlando, just a little northeast, really on top of Orlando. [SPEAKER_04]: And we're taking the dogs and then one of the kids who's a buddy of Michaels, his dad can't make it up till Friday because as I remember, I was mentioning this yesterday, this tournament, the details of which were sprung on the parents really like an hour after 10 minutes after the game we played the other night. [SPEAKER_03]: But I don't think you mentioned that it's multiple days. [SPEAKER_03]: it's definitely multiple days. [SPEAKER_04]: It's going to be we booked a hotel for Wednesday to Saturday. [SPEAKER_04]: Wednesday to Friday night. [SPEAKER_04]: So hopefully it's wrapped up by Saturday. [SPEAKER_04]: If it goes to Sunday, we're screwed. [SPEAKER_04]: You know, did you look into it in the car? [SPEAKER_04]: You do you know more about it than I do? [SPEAKER_04]: You probably do. [SPEAKER_03]: Now that I know what's Friday, I will check it out. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, well, I'll let you know because I'm not sure how it works and whether we have to win to stay in as they say. [SPEAKER_03]: I am, no. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm just shaking my head at the concept of they let you know one Monday, you have to go out of town three hours away in two days. [SPEAKER_03]: It's got to be there for three days. [SPEAKER_04]: No, no, no. [SPEAKER_04]: Now I have to be fair to the powers that be the overall tournament schedule, the tournament weekend. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: Was identified. [SPEAKER_04]: uh... we knew there was going to be something up in Orlando uh... for this team right from the get-go on less we went to the a uh... the a state championships which would be a different tournament you say first day as the weekend now i do not [SPEAKER_04]: No, no, the daytime game on Thursday was an eyebrow razor. [SPEAKER_04]: And then early this morning, my wife received a text from one of the other moms, saying that one of the kids has a dad who has to work. [SPEAKER_04]: And he's a buddy of Michaels. [SPEAKER_04]: And by the way, we got baseball players. [SPEAKER_04]: out the wazoo around here we in uh... jace who is one of our uh... pictures and an incredible second baseman and i call them the pocket rocket because he's uh... small of stature big of talent and uh... he is uh... he spent the night last night with michael there are other minds running around i think they took the e-bike uh... the dangerous e-bike up to seven eleven to get breakfast because we have nothing in the house it's a modified e-bike right [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it goes 130 miles per hour. [SPEAKER_05]: No, but has he, has he mess with it and made a change? [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, they all mess with him. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: They mess with them all the time. [SPEAKER_04]: So the Subaru will include the dogs, two dogs, and two kids. [SPEAKER_04]: And by the way, Dylan. [SPEAKER_04]: Nick's mammals. [SPEAKER_04]: Dylan, who is coming with us is one of the larger young men on the team and also one of the home run hitters. [SPEAKER_04]: So, you know, you handle with care. [SPEAKER_04]: That's the way that got what point do you decide to take two vehicles? [SPEAKER_04]: I know, no way. [SPEAKER_04]: I can't do it. [SPEAKER_04]: I can't do it. [SPEAKER_04]: I can't do it. [SPEAKER_05]: Are they taking you bike? [SPEAKER_04]: What? [SPEAKER_05]: could they drive these by yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: Three and a half hours the e-bike. [SPEAKER_04]: Great idea. [SPEAKER_05]: Why mean you keep an eye on them? [SPEAKER_05]: They look over in the side of you. [SPEAKER_04]: They get to the city line and crap out with their battery power. [SPEAKER_04]: Well. [SPEAKER_04]: All right. [SPEAKER_04]: Ovido is a suburb of Orlando, so that's that area. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, okay, sorry. [SPEAKER_03]: But it's on my side of Orlando. [SPEAKER_04]: It's on your side and good side. [SPEAKER_04]: I will text you and keep you posted about what's going on Josh with the tournament. [SPEAKER_04]: But yeah, I wrote it down here. [SPEAKER_04]: Road trip time, two boys, two dogs, traveling through Florida, and we're not taking my car, which maybe has a ton of fun. [SPEAKER_04]: I need a bit more space, but not a lot. [SPEAKER_04]: We're taking, you know, I wouldn't exactly call a Subaru Forester hybrid, a, you know, a mega SUV. [SPEAKER_05]: Should have stepped up to the outback. [SPEAKER_05]: That doesn't flip as much as the Forester. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't think the outback has a hell of a lot more space, right? [SPEAKER_05]: A little more space in the back and a bit wider. [SPEAKER_05]: I think is what it is. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, just a little bit, not much. [SPEAKER_05]: But yeah, when I had my forester, I flipped it and I said, you know what I think I want something wider and so I got myself the Outback instead of the forester. [SPEAKER_04]: So it is bigger. [SPEAKER_04]: I didn't know that. [SPEAKER_04]: How do the dogs do on the drive? [SPEAKER_03]: Are they on the lap? [SPEAKER_03]: And where do they sit? [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_03]: Where do they go? [SPEAKER_04]: Here is This is the other problem [SPEAKER_04]: But because we now have an additional passenger, we are foregoing the crate, the little crate we were going to take the dogs in. [SPEAKER_05]: Were they share a crate? [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, they are able to show you how small crate they could do that. [SPEAKER_04]: Although one time they got into a fight in the crate, which was not pleasant, it happened. [SPEAKER_04]: It happened with me and my cousins when they put you in the crate when they took you on the last year. [SPEAKER_04]: On the phone journey, it's going to be, it's going to be interesting to say the very least. [SPEAKER_04]: It's going to be an interesting. [SPEAKER_05]: And the crate goes in the backpack, right? [SPEAKER_04]: Well, now we're not going to take it. [SPEAKER_04]: We're just going to have the dog. [SPEAKER_05]: But when you travel, it would go in the backpack. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but you got to realize my son's a catcher. [SPEAKER_04]: So he doesn't take a normal amount of gear. [SPEAKER_04]: He takes a a lot. [SPEAKER_04]: It looks like he's deploying to a foreign country when he puts the dogs wander. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_05]: This is open up into a bigger crate. [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_03]: Have you met the dogs? [SPEAKER_03]: They will wander. [SPEAKER_05]: Are they in different dogs? [SPEAKER_05]: Happened differently in different car situat
