Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you very much, it's a pleasure. I'm enjoying this, I can enjoy for hours and hours on in", said the Uncle, who is already enjoying today's program. "I'm just a little irritated today by these politicians", said the Uncle, who believes "we would be better off if the politicians just meet less". "After all we've been through for years now with the school board and Harold Dodge (superintendent)", said the Uncle. "Now we find out at this point it's revealed that he is a bargain. They are telling the public that they have to pay more-they don't like him", he said. "He has provided over the largest school system in the state of Alabama", said the Uncle. "It's like finding a quality item at the Dollar Tree store", said the Uncle. The school board was paraphrased as saying, "Oh yeah, we've got to". "Why didn't they talk about that when they first started saying they didn't like him?" our host asked. "Why are you going to run off somebody that's been doing an all right job at a bargain price to get somebody that's not likely to do as good?" the Uncle asked. "What are the odds that the next superintendent will be superintendent of the year?" the Uncle asked. "It's just a plain money issue", according to the Uncle, "Monopoly money" is involved. Our host is "very disappointed in these people" who voted in support of red light traffic cameras in the Mobile area. "It's a money grab by a municipality to increase fines for a traffic violation", said the Uncle. "I am just shocked", our host said after discovering a list of lawmakers in favor. "They need cut the sales tax in this city. Yes, cut the sales tax!" the Uncle demanded loudly. "They always want more", said the Uncle, doubting the chance of a sales tax cut. "I'm disappointed in it", said the Uncle before reminding listeners how to join the show (by dialing 251 479-2723). "Whatever happened to limited government, whatever happened to that?" the Uncle asked, raising his voice. "We're all eventually going to be working for the government somehow", said the Uncle. "This is where the third party ought to come in", said the Uncle. "Just stop the growth of government", said the Uncle before speaking to our first live caller Henry. "What is wrong with these people?" Henry asked about the school board members. "If they're getting him at a bargain price, what in the world are they getting rid of him?" our host asked. "People called in yesterday trying to get to know more about me personally", said the Uncle, who found the calls creepy. Our host mentioned that he currently owns a small automobile. "I'd like the biggest thing (automobile) that is made", the Uncle revealed to his audience, including the "creepy" ones. After the first commercial break and a voice message, "It's nice, isn't it?" the Uncle asked his audience on this beautiful weather day. Our host recently asked his staff members about living in the south, only to find out that they're only interested in the fellow "with the hair" on the popular TV program "American Idol". "That's all they're talking about!" the Uncle shouted. "If we care so much about safety on the public highway, why are we not hiring enough officers?" the Uncle asked after caller Walter brought up the subject. "There is no way for you to be more right", the Uncle said to Walter. "They'll tell you we're in a crisis with regards to the police shortage", said our next caller, who personally spoke with local police. "Miss Jackson used to talk about [it]", said our caller, referring to the late community activist Lillian Jackson. "I think you and I talked about this numerous times since the report" on poverty being the main reason for overweight people in the USA, said our caller. Our host gave the last caller praise, among the others so far today. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.6/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. Our host was heard coughing at this point of the program. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you so much, it's a pleasure to be with you today on this beautiful, beautiful Wednesday", said the Uncle greeting one & all. "I enjoyed yesterday's program, where we discussed dogs and dog poop and all that stuff", said the Uncle, who looks forward to today's new discussions. "A dog version of the Heimlich maneuver" occurred in Maryland, a news story our host mentioned. "Very smart dog, still not as smart as a person", said the Uncle before reminding land phone and cellular phone users how to join the show. "Numerous things to discuss", said the Uncle, starting with the latest "Lagniappe pamphlet" reporting that WPMI-TV reporter Sandra Shaw is leaving the area for Baltimore, Maryland. "A lot of young men in the city very upset with that", said the Uncle. "Please, just stay on the road", our host said to drivers shocked by the news. "Very interesting story about this Judge Herman Thomas with this new investigation", said the Uncle after reading today's Press-Register. "This guy in jail apparently had his case moved from one judge to the docket of Judge Thomas", the Uncle summarized for us. "The judge managed to orchestrate his release" after the two men got together, said the Uncle. "It's almost like a judge acting as your attorney", according to the Uncle. "He didn't need a lawyer", the Uncle learned from the newspaper. "It sounds like a judge almost acting on the side of the lawyer", said the Uncle. "Just another chapter in a long unsorted story", said the Uncle before speaking to our first live caller. "I keep 710 on my [radio] all day and all night", said our caller, who prompted our host to ask a question on whether he listens to "the UFO program", or "Coast to Cast AM" during the overnight hours. "For the first time in 25 years, I'm going to listen to another channel", said our caller, who is not interested in "The Ultimate Sports Show" that recently replaced "The Paul Finebaum Show" in the afternoon. "People love the NASCAR", the Uncle said twice. "Y'all made a change, y'all made a mistake", said our caller, who "doesn't want to go through" a channel change at his old age. "I really, really like the guy I see on the air" with Sandra Shaw, said our caller, referring to WPMI-TV anchor Scott Walker. Our host believes this fellow ought to be listening to Scott O'Brien's program on 710 AM. "You are really letting it all hang out", said the Uncle after learning that he and the caller share the same thoughts about Scott O'Brien. "I disagreed with numerous points, but the Scott O'Brien liberal stuff I agree with that", said the Uncle. "I have to tell you, I enjoy 'the Snake' ", the Uncle said about one of the sports talk show hosts. "It (the voice of Tim "The Snake" Stabler) reminds me of the people I grew up with", said the Uncle, which was clear to listeners thinking that our host was talking about the words Stabler uses on the radio. "It's a lot better", said the Uncle, who found himself unable to have the car radio tuned to Paul Finebaum's talk show with his grandson's presence. "I have a feeling that 'the Snake' is not going to discuss Mike Shula in a transgender fashion and I like that", said the Uncle. "Good morning, Uncle Henry!" said our next caller Dave. "I am not really all that pleased to see Paul Finebaum removed from that slot", said Dave before referring to the station in Baldwin County that airs part of Finebaum. WHEP-AM (1310) in Foley, Alabama is that station. "I'm going to continue to give it a jolt", Dave said about Finebaum's replacement "The Ultimate Sports Show" on 710 AM. "They've only been doing it for a couple of weeks", said the Uncle. "I am not the biggest Scott O'Brien fan in the world either", said Dave. "I never met Scott, but I know exactly where he stands", said Dave shortly before leaving us. "When I took the time out, I actually tuned in and actually enjoyed listening to his (Scott's) life & times with Mike (Sloan)", said the Uncle. "I will check your e-mail", said the Uncle, who continues to find it difficult to read the good messages due to some fellow claiming to be from Nigeria. "He's just a decent man", our next caller said about Scott. "Is it possible for a decent man to be a liberal?" the Uncle asked our caller. "Yes, sir", our caller answered. "Can he be both?" our host asked. "He is writing everyday on-he's got a little page on NewsRadio 710", said the Uncle, referring to Scott O'Brien's personal page online. "I don't know the AM station, Foley station", said the Uncle in response to our caller's question about WHEP-AM, a station he is unfamiliar with. "Ask around about Foley radio and I'm sure you'll find it", said the Uncle, claiming he is not familiar with the AM dial. "I have a different topic today", said our next caller Fay. "For 4 years, there has been a derelict boat" in the neighborhood, said Fay. "I'll look into it and keep listening", said the Uncle, who heard the telephone ringing near by. "I'm glad to get some feedback about what you've heard on the radio station recently", said the Uncle, who is a listener outside of being a broadcaster. There was no break for commercials during the first half-hour of the show, which ended with the hourly station identification. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, thank you for making this show the most popular of its genre", said the Uncle, especially on a "good day in this part of the world". "On a local level, many people in Mobile County today are breathing a sigh of relief. Very, they are just relieved because the county (commissioner)-Steve Nodine announced that they have dropped the pooper-scooper requirement on dogs", said the Uncle. "Your dog has the freedom wherever it wants to poop, really", said the Uncle. "They were requiring for people to clean up after their pets" until now, said the Uncle. "I consider it my civic duty to clean up after my dog's mess", said the Uncle. "I'm very aware of where my dog goes to the bathroom", he said. "I just consider myself a responsible pet owner", said the Uncle, who doesn't consider himself to be a hero. "I don't want my neighbors who [go] out to get the newspaper or get the mail and get an unpleasant surprise", said the Uncle. "Your dog can just mess up all over everybody else's yard and there's not much you can do about it", said the Uncle to certain protestors probably listening. "Some lady complained that in the proposed Mobile County ordinance on pets claimed that the ordinance" includes a sentence on "every living dumb creature". "Some lady got upset about that and got the commission to drop the word 'dumb' ", said the Uncle. "Did someone show up for that?" our host asked about the protest of the word. "I know they've (pets) given you looks", said the Uncle. "The dog and the cat, they are not as smart of people. I know you love them", said the Uncle before listing numerous ways an owner expresses love for cats and dogs. "I don't know any dog or cat who can drive a car", said the Uncle, who also claims to have never seen a dog or cat use a hammer. "Go nowhere", said the Uncle before the first commercial break. "Uncle Henry Show continues here on NewsRadio 710 WPMI", the Uncle said before responding to the voice message that preceded him. "It's just bug-like" in intelligence, the Uncle said after hearing listener Tim's recorded message on dogs such a chihuahuas. "You know, um, there's a lot of times when officers are doing their job and they are not getting credit for it", said our first live caller, who mentioned one police officer in particular. "He made follow up trips about dog poop? That is amazing!" said the Uncle. "I just say I want to thank him for it", said our caller before leaving us. "It must be a bigger problem than I thought", said the Uncle, who now believes the issue is with the breed (pit bull, our host mentioned). "I grew up with dogs and I love them very much", said our caller, who used Biblical references to support his points. "He (God) gave the animals to man as a pleasure and to see after them", said our caller, who added that the animals were not given "as an equal" to man. "Never talked about the love of animals", said our caller, referring to the Lord. "Yes, God loves animals, but He does not love them as much as human beings, because He gave His only Son for human beings", said our caller. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.7/5!

Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, a pleasure to be with you on this beautiful Monday. I'm glad to be back in here, I want to thank Ron Reams", said the Uncle, who usually doesn't "plan on listening" to the station at this time when he is away from the studio. "While in my yard, I listened to NewsRadio 710", said the Uncle. "It was like listening to talk radio in Mobile, Alabama in 1978", he said. "Ron, if you're listening, God bless you", said the Uncle. "I hope you're going to be my permanent fill-in host", our host added. "All of them talking about that Eddie Smith story", the Uncle said about his fellow radio listeners. "Eddie Curran, I know you're not listening", the Uncle said to the Press-Register reporter, whom he commends for doing a good job on the aforementioned story. "I read the whole thing about the boat from beginning to end and it was nauseating", said the Uncle. "Even though you nauseated me, it's positive", the Uncle said to Curran "The long distance number is 251 479-2723", the Uncle said to his audience. "Freddie, good morning", the Uncle said to our first live caller, who is "glad you're back" and mentions that Ron Reams "had some nice things to say about you". "I don't know why you tie me in with the president, with Alberto Gonzalez, with Eddie Smith, and with David Thomas?" the Uncle asked. "It nauseated me to read all that stuff", said the Uncle after Freddie left us. "You almost disoriented me like you popped me upside my head", said the Uncle. "It's like bumping my head on the mantle when I talk to you, Freddie", said the Uncle. "I am very interested in the reasoning behind the (state) legislators who voted no" on the recent pay raise, said the Uncle. "I wonder how many of them are not going to accept it? We can talk-we can talk all day", said the Uncle. "It's very entertaining to me, the people who want a grand stand" in the Legislature, said the Uncle. "Lead some other legislators", our host suggested. "I knew there was one TV station calling around" legislators with questions about accepting the pay, said the Uncle. During the first break, our host did a live commercial for Dr. Byron Scott's dental services in the Spring Hill area of Mobile. "Good morning. Hello there", the Uncle said to our next caller, who welcomed our host back to the airwaves. "I'm going to challenge Freddie to a duel", said our caller. "I don't want to get in someone's way of a duel, but don't use this show", said the Uncle. "That's just not good for a show. Not good for your health either", said the Uncle. "Don't drag me into a liability", said the Uncle. "Uncle Henry", said Jim the Tax Man. "Tax Man" was the Uncle's response to this frequent local radio talk show caller, who is known for participating in another program other than this one. "Those people in Montgomery, you've got to remember, they serve their own self-interest", said Jim. "Let's talk about some important things", said Jim, who wants to discuss why he dislikes Paul Finebaum's talk show, which is being replaced by "The Ultimate Sports Show" today. "I'll be listening back to you radio station", said Jim before leaving us. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.5/5!

Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener. Thank you for listening, thank you for making the Uncle Henry Show the most popular program of its genre in Mobile radio history", said the Uncle to his audience. He apologized to the fellow who left a recorded message about the he heard over the air during yesterday's show. "That's probably my medical equipment, I don't talk about it much", said the Uncle. "No one is allowed to use a cell phone around my medical equipment", our host wanted everyone to know. "An outstanding story by Dan Murtaugh (Press-Register writer) about Mike Dean in Paris", said the Uncle after reading a newspaper article, which includes "Parisian traffic techniques" for Dawes Road in Mobile. "Mobile County Commissioner Mike Dean says he wants to bring a little bit of Paris to Dawes Road" is the troubling (if bias, according to our host) sentence our host read for us. "That's just the first sentence, there's more to the story", said the Uncle. "This story has so much opportunity to think and wonder and ponder and imagine", said the Uncle. "Mobile drivers are different from drivers on other places of the road", the Uncle said without offense. "It's going to be the new malfunction junction. There are going to be elderly people trapped in this traffic circle", said the Uncle. "Madness, that's just-and that's just the beginning of this story by Dan Murtaugh of this Press-Register", said the Uncle. "Mike Dean said, 'My trip to Paris paid off' ", said the Uncle. "Just imagine, Mike Dean in Paris" the Uncle encouraged his audience to do. "Going into the little pastry shops. All right, that was a little bit of interlude", said the Uncle, who encourages listeners to create their own mental pictures. "He (Dean) knows people are not going to want it", our host believes. "Sounds like a gigantic malfunction", said the Uncle before speaking to our first live caller Charles. "I have driven out there on several occasions", Charles said about his Dawes Road experience. "I like the optimism", said the Uncle after listening to Charles. "I grew up in New Jersey and have driven around those things", said our next caller Joe. "Maybe they (Mobile drivers) are not as sophisticated as our previous caller", our host assumes. "Uncle Henry, this is really interesting about that circle", said Jim the Tax Man, who claims to deal with other people in the world. "Young people-not really, just don't have the life experience" to participate on a talk show, said the Uncle after Jim suggested the idea of local students sharing their traffic circle experience on the show. "Dothan is a really big circle, maybe he went to Dothan and maybe this Paris stuff [is] just to make it more colorful", according to the Uncle. After the first commercial break and a voice message, "Ron Reams will be in here, thank goodness. Ron Reams will be filling in for me", said the Uncle, who will be overseeing the installation of ceramic tiles in his home over the next few days. "I just want you to weigh in on the traffic circles", one caller said. "You sound like a competent driver", the Uncle said to this caller. "I just have to vote 'em out. Who are the powers that be?" one caller asked during a whole different discussion, immigration. "I have to say don't get me started on it", said the Uncle, who doesn't want to get into a frenzy. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!


Notes of Interest:

The Uncle shall return next Monday!

Unfortunately, sports commentator Paul Finebaum will not be returning to the local airwaves Monday, as his statewide radio talk show will be replaced by "The Ultimate Sports Show". The program is produced by WERC, an AM radio station based in Birmingham, Alabama, and it is owned by Clear Channel Communications.

We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Uncle Henry Show underway, a real-so far, so good, excellent open into the show", said the Uncle, referring to the preceding sequence of recorded messages. Deep thinking "just smashed into it", as our host describes the thought process behind those messages. Those messages are one reason why our host encourages listeners to tell their friends about the show. "If you missed the first voice mail of that little block", said the Uncle, it was an experiment on global warming. "Derek, that was excellent. It makes you wonder why all these smart people wouldn't get a towel and a light bulb and figure it out for themselves", said the Uncle, who "still uses the old fashion light bulb". "Speaking of global warming, according to Newsweek magazine, Al Gore is losing weight", said the Uncle, which may mean that the former vice president of the USA might run for president again. "The topic of Al Gore's weight very sensitive among his group of people", said the Uncle after reading the magazine. "Now he seems maniacal in many ways", said the Uncle, who now hopes for Gore to "jump in" to "increase the entertainment value" in the years to come. "Are you playing concerts in this area?" the Uncle asked our first live caller Brent, a musician in the band Runaway Coal Train. "Your music would be good picnic music. Have you thought about a 2 o'clock in the afternoon concert?" the Uncle suggested. "Things are fantastic in the City of Mobile", said the Uncle, answering Brent's question. "The birds are singing loudly", said the Uncle. "I'm sorry, but your cell phone is in and out. Hello?" said the Uncle before realizing that we lost Brent. "Good musician performing at an ungodly hour", said the Uncle. "You might as well be performing on the moon if you're performing in downtown Mobile [at 11:30] late at night", said the Uncle, who "might as well travel to the moon" than attend the concert. After the break and a voice message, "The Adventures of Superman" theme music is used as bumper music. "A show note, a rare show note, and that is this: The Uncle Henry Show will be suspended for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I will be taking time out. I will be having insulated tiles installed in most of my house", said the Uncle. "A working vacation" is what he calls it, though he will supervise the folks doing much of the work. "I don't know what Scott O'Brien's lined up. I've made suggestions with Ron Reams", said the Uncle, who believes the program director (Scott) will just "ignore all suggestions", including the idea of having the Web producer for WPMI-TV host the show. In response to Dan's voice message after the break, "NBC has it, they've got a show devoted to trapping" molesters. "I don't know if chopping off arms will work, if they're so compelled to doing it", the Uncle said about these folks before speaking to caller Thomas. "You seem to be an expert on everything I'm doing in my home. I find that very disconcerting", said the Uncle. In response to Thomas' question about the color of the grout, "I'm partially color blind, so it's very difficult to say", said the Uncle. "This is the only talk show in America discussing grout", said the Uncle. "Look, thank you for that. I appreciate that. I'm not going to dig in my grout", said the Uncle before speaking to our next caller Sidney (her name was "Sid" on the air), who has a question about Steve Nodine, a Mobile County commissioner. "My heart goes out to you. I'll try to find out information", said the Uncle learning of the street Sidney resides on. "Can you believe that, surrounded by pit bulls?" the Uncle asked his audience before speaking to Dennis. "My brother, who is a pedophile, was sent to jail for 6 months, and in my opinion he should have been sent to jail for life", said Dennis. "You think these people should be banished from society for life?" the Uncle asked Dennis, who favors such a banishment. "That's very strong words from someone talking about one of his blood relatives", said the Uncle. Before the break, our host did a live commercial for Dr. Byron Scott's dental services. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 5/5!

"Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you for listening, listener. Thank you so much. I appreciate you being here on the Uncle Henry Show. Thank you for making this program the most popular talk program", said the Uncle. "I don't know anything more interesting than having those two guys (including yesterday's guest Steve Nodine, Mobile County commissioner) on", the Uncle said in response to one recorded message played at the beginning of the show. Our host plans on listening to the 'podcast' of yesterday's program. "Yesterday's call screening, the best call screening in the history of the show", said the Uncle, who has yet to acknowledge the whereabouts of call screener Leeanna. "Sometimes the calls will be screened, sometimes they won't", the Uncle said about today's call screening. "The guy wanted a web cam, I've always wanted web cam", said the Uncle after hearing one of the recorded messages played previously. "There used to be a web cam in here year's ago", said the Uncle, who believes the web cam was "stepped on" by a staff member. "The web cam itself was a relatively simple device, but the cords", the Uncle said, explaining the damage. "With every technology comes the things you don't think about", said the Uncle, who suggests that we solve the "cord conundrum" first. "Watch the guy talk as opposed to the actual-we're on the air, right?" said the Uncle, who just noticed station engineering walking by. As our host speaks about his puppy dog, "It's eating any object that will fit into its mouth", he said. "I would be-I just don't want to bring the dog in this environment", said the Uncle, who can imagine his dog stuffing things into her mouth at the WKRG building. "Well Thomas, it's an early call for you", the Uncle said to our first live caller, who was previously called "caller one". "Do you remember years ago when the federal government used to monitor this station?" the Uncle asked, since he remembers WKRG-TV5 sports director Randy Patrick's former radio talk show being screened. "You know, I find it quite interesting yesterday with Mr. Nodine's response to callers", said Thomas. "He's like in that Jo Bonner stage, where you talk and don't say anything", Thomas said, comparing Nodine to the Alabama congressman. "I wanted to interview Jo Bonner, but the previous person who was involved in lining me up persons" wouldn't allow it, said the Uncle. "I said, 'If you want my vote, I want you to be in favor of purchasing bombs' ", the Uncle remembers saying to Bonner (he agreed, according to our host) before a congressional election. After the first commercial break and a voice message, the theme music to the popular TV program "American Idol" was used a bumper music. "All right Uncle Henry Show continues on this Friday. It's Friday, but they are promising-they are promising sunshine later in the day", said the Uncle before speaking to our next caller, who suggested duct tape as a solution to the web cam cord problem. Our caller's radio can be heard over the air due to the station's delay system. "Maybe we'll see if that's in the budget along with the web cam", said the Uncle. "I guess you need to check with your insurance company", said our caller, who brought up his corn bread at home. "You had to bring that up and made me hungry", said the Uncle, who feels like using a skillet now. "Let's talk to this person", the Uncle said our next caller, whom he identified as Bill. "I listened to your program yesterday", said caller Freddie, who followed Bill. "I don't remember anyone saying anything about a new indictment", the Uncle said about yesterday' s program, including the 10 o'clock hour that cannot be summarized here. "Do you know about an indictment that you're not telling me?" our host asked Freddie, who would switch to a different subject. "Do you know that all the candidates will spend all their money and effort in California and Alabama will get nothing?" Freddie asked our host. "Sounds like you invented a whole story. You said you read something between the lines that I don't anything about", said the Uncle. "Probably something you didn't want to tell us", said the Uncle before speaking to Mike. "I think, as far as I know, the military wanted those welcome home ceremonies to be low key", said Mike "We have enough nuclear weapons to destroy all life on this planet 100 times over", said Mike. "Good", our host said in response. "The chance for peace is greater if you let the people know you can defend yourself", said the Uncle. "It's a very simple principle, instead of having these atomic weapons, I would like some of the really big bombs used to blow up mountains in the Middle East", said the Uncle before the break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.7/5!


Notes of Interest:

Folks, I discovered later on this day that call screener Leeanna has relocated to a different radio station in the Mobile area. She was on the air at about 11:30 PM on WZEW-FM, a station known for adult album rock, jazz, and blues music. Leeanna continues to use the nickname "Sister Moon", which was her on-air name during her days at WMXC-FM ("Lite Mix"). I have no idea when and how Leeanna departed 710 AM, but her last time on the air with the Uncle most likely took occurred during the show's 10 o'clock hour. Your daily writer wishes Leeanna a greater future and she will be missed by everyone connected to 710 AM. Good day!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener", said the Uncle greeting one & all. "Uncle Henry Show underway on a beautiful, beautiful Thursday", said the Uncle, who is "very much looking forward to today's program", including today's guest, who are hard to invite to the show. "Yes, there he is", said the Uncle as Steve Nodine, a Mobile County Commissioner, made his appearance. "Now you're very controversial right now", said the Uncle, referring to some proposed country ordinances. "What are you talking about, Uncle Henry?" Steve asked, unaware of what issue our host was referring to. "I had town hall meetings a year prior to this", Steve said about the ordinances. "What's going on with the dogs?" the Uncle asked. "Is it true that people can't leave their homes because of the dogs?" he added to his questions. "Will it pay for itself?" the Uncle asked. "We hope people just adhere to it", said Steve. "We're here just to set some rules up so people can understand it", said Steve. "Alright, but the people showed up, a lot of people showed up at the county commission", said the Uncle. "They wanted it (the proposed ordinances) to move faster", said Steve. "Has it always been that way?" the Uncle asked about the issues addressed by the ordinance. It's always been that away, according to Steve "due to the rapid growth of Mobile County". The county commissioner directed listeners to two websites listing the proposed county ordinances on junk piles. Mobile County.org and WKRG.com were mentioned on the air. "Don't give out that! Why did you give that out?" said the Uncle after Nodine mentioned the latter site. "Are you going to hire Peter Albrecht?" he asked, since the county commission is looking for a new public relations person. "When I was child, Steve, I played in old cars. We could devote an entire show to old cars", said the Uncle. "I personally witnessed this. The accumulation of junk on people's property", said Steve. "You don't like that", said the Uncle. "They understood what they were voting on", Steve said about his district's residents. "What is the biggest problem that they are upset about?" the Uncle asked about the residents' concern for dogs and junk piles. "The dogs are just equally important", said Steve. "Are you going to be writing tickets for flat tires?" the Uncle asked. "I don't think so. Absolutely no", said Steve. "We are going to take a brief timeout, then more with 'the Commish' as the Uncle Henry Show continues", said the Uncle before the first commercial break. After the break and some classic Mobile City Council audio, "Uncle Henry Show continues. Do you get along with Dow now?" the Uncle asked Nodine about his relationship with Mike Dow, former mayor of Mobile. "When he runs for governor, are you with him?" the Uncle asked. "No", Steve answered. "Have you gone to the website and read the ordinances?" Steve asked our first live caller Thomas. "Are you going with Florida (University of Florida)", Steve said after asking Thomas on a whole different subject, the NCAA college basketball tournament. "What about the whole Airbus and all that stuff?" the Uncle asked Steve. "We are proud of our partners at EADS and Northrop Grumman", said Steve. "We will continue to fight for it", Steve said about the contract to build refueling planes. "I'm not here to beat on Boeing, they are a great partner in the state of Alabama", Steve said about the competitor for the contract. "Now let's talk to you", the Uncle said to our next caller, who was unidentified. "You forgive me for not recollecting, because I have a lot of things going on!" said Steve as he tried to help the caller trying to understand the ordinances online. "I see junk and your definition of junk, it doesn't mention anything about growth of trees", said the Uncle. "Again, this is the public comment hearing time", said Steve. "We may want to include junk boats", said Steve. "He is telling you to read about this at Mobile County.org", said the Uncle, who pronounced "org" with an "e" at the end. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 5/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you for listening to the Uncle Henry Show", said the Uncle to his audience. "There's some guy, who I don't know anything about", the Uncle said about the fellow who leaves recorded messages that tend to last up to 9 minutes or so. "I'm very confused by several things going on Montgomery. I hate to talk about state-state of Alabama issues", our host admits. "You know, the Press-Register, God bless them, they print out what the legislators did the day before", said the Uncle. "They go ahead wishing people wedding anniversaries and birthdays", said the Uncle, among other details from Montgomery. "I was looking through all of this, very confused by a number of things", said the Uncle. "Do you remember a few years ago when we were doomed?" the Uncle asked, referring to the vote on "the biggest tax increase in our history" under the Alabama Tax Plan. "Not only are we not doomed, but things could never be better", said the Uncle. "We've been told throughout the year, through my lifetime that Alabama is one of the lowest taxed places in the country", said the Uncle. "If you would just raise your taxes" is what our host constantly hears from folks concerned about the state's ranking among others. "Press-Register, one of the entities that tell us that if we just raise taxes", said the Uncle. "They want to cut taxes and at the same time increase fees", said the Uncle. "Why don't they have to go up on anything?" our host asked. "Things are so good, never been better, that we don't have to lower taxes", said the Uncle. "That don't make any dab gum sense at all!" the Uncle shouted. "I have the right to be confused", said our host. "It's just dumb, to cut someone's taxes and pay the increased fees", said the Uncle. "I don't like it, I don't like it one-", said the Uncle, stopping himself. "These red light cameras-don't get be started on that", said the Uncle before reminding listeners how to call in (by dialing 251 479-2723). "I'm been told that the 'podcast' will be back to normal", said the Uncle. "I've been very disappointed in the way some of you have treated this girl, this Auburn girl Jennifer", the Uncle said to callers of the show, specifically callers who mistreated the substitute (hopefully) call screener. "Don't you yell at that girl!" he said. "Don't you think that motivates her? 479-I'm ashamed of you", said the Uncle before the first commercial break. "There's a lady that lives in the Old Shell area in an older part of downtown that is very nice", said the Uncle during a live commercial for Dr. Byron Scott's dental services. "You can call him laid back, but in a very good way", he said about the local dentist. After the break, "Uncle Henry Show. You're listening to NewsRadio 710 WPMI. News coming up in a few minutes. Rush Limbaugh coming up in less than an hour. Let's go to the phones", said the Uncle before to speaking to our first live caller. "I used to have relatives who didn't have a lot of money go in the bay" for food, said the Uncle. "My family, there was a time, when they had 5 kids, and I'm not speaking for me", said the Uncle. "In the 1960s, you could fish in Mobile Bay", said the Uncle. "You can even eat croaker", he added. "Good morning, Uncle Henry", said our next caller, who had a "Roll Tide" shout for our host. "The reason they want to lower our taxes and then start on our license fees", said our caller, is that they want more. "Good morning, Uncle Henry", said George, who calls the tax ideas "undermining". As for the Alabama Tax Plan a few years ago, "It was also the biggest constitution amendment in the history of the state of Alabama", said George. "Now, they don't read all of these bills (law proposals)", said George. "Only the big companies could afford a lobbyist", said George. "You measured your words carefully, you spoke them in an evenly fashion", said the Uncle. "Even a simpleton" could understand, said the Uncle. "I guess they are going to lower the taxes further. We will be the lowest taxed people on the planet forever", said the Uncle after listening to some classic audio of Mike Dow, Mobile's previous mayor. "Are you in a good mood that you are one of the lowest people on the planet?" the Uncle asked before the break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.7/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much!" said the Uncle, whose greeting barely made it on the air. "Already, more content on this show than anything else on this station, except for Rush Limbaugh", said the Uncle, who also included "Coast to Coast AM" among the shows with less content. "It's a new day and yet in many ways very similar to previous days", according to our host. "Long distance number, 479-2723 with the area code in front of it, 251", said the Uncle, giving listeners in Gulfport, Mississippi, Pensacola, Florida, and everywhere else via the Internet a chance to call-in. "I've been to Pensacola a couple of weeks ago listening to this station. We already have Freddie on the line, he's authority", said the Uncle. Freddie considered himself to be authority after our host mentioned it. "Why don't we as black Americans and white Americans just look at our own situation today?" Freddie asked. "You are looking at the divide that is taking place between you and me", said Freddie, who mentioned that he's black. "If you're a male homosexual, you get out there with that female", said Freddie. "You are creating a divide, aren't you?" the Uncle asked. "Now you've created another divide", he said to Freddie. "I didn't do that, Uncle Henry!" Freddie said in response. "Have you noticed, I live in a neighborhood in the downtown area", said Freddie, who notices different kinds of people around his area. "I guess we need these people from other countries, because there isn't going to be anyone else left", said the Uncle. "Are you real or is this all a joke?" the Uncle asked Freddie about "the entire gist of your call". "Alright, so they're conquering us. So there's a divide between the races in Mobile and there is a problem with homosexuals buying cell phones, because they're trying to buy dogs", said the Uncle. "It is an interesting way to start the show", said the Uncle after Freddie left us. "You just don't know where to go", said the Uncle, comparing Freddie's call to the sight of ducks flying off in front of you. "Once upon a time, I hosted this show on a different radio station", said the Uncle as he reflects upon his previous show that aired on WABB-AM. "I was on for like 2 or 3 hours a day, I liked that", said the Uncle, who would listen to "The Mike Malone Show" on 710 AM at the time. "You know, there's a lot of the same", said the Uncle. "It's the same argument that we've had for years", the Uncle added before reminding "all people to calm" down. "Freddie, it's almost like you transformed into Dr. Phil in that call", said the Uncle before taking a break for commercials. After the break and a voice message, "Uncle Henry Show continues. Let's talk to Glenn. Hello Glenn", said the Uncle. Glenn sees a divide between the ruling class than the average citizen. "I think that's a divide that we really need to focus on", Glenn believes. "On the federal level, a lot of it-many of these people (incumbents) act like there is a warranty", said the Uncle. Our host is also aware that folks call radio programs anonymously to "bring out things that they would not normally say to each other". "Let's talk to Chuck. Hello Chuck", the Uncle said to our next caller. What Chuck finds strange about politicians in the general sense is that "they come back all millionaires" after getting elected. Chuck brought to our host's attention the news of a drug bust in Baldwin County. "They're moving over by the truckloads everyday from Mobile County", said the Uncle. "I'm of both counties", said the Uncle, answering Chuck's question of where he's from, which is Baldwin. "Born in one county, most of my life spent in the other country. I'm really in between two counties", said the Uncle. "More of your interaction here on NewsRadio 710 WPMI", said the Uncle. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!

We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects.

Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, a pleasure, it's a real pleasure to be with you on this gorgeous, gorgeous morning after the idiotic time change", said the Uncle, who remains optimistic after the government's influence on "changing the time". Listeners were reminded how to call in (by dialing 251 479-2723), either by landline or cellular. "Here's the deal, this what bothers me, I'm not going to spend my time talking about Daylight Saving Time", said the Uncle. "They wanted to save energy, so Congress decided to change the time change. So they wanted us to do the Daylight Saving Time earlier", said the Uncle. "See, it was dark this morning (at) just 7 o'clock", said the Uncle. "You, as a productive person to turn your lights on", said the Uncle to listeners who go to work early, "your lights were on anyway". "It makes no difference! You understand what I'm saying?" said the Uncle. "You're going to have to turn them on the morning", said the Uncle. "These people seem allergic to thinking", according to our host. "A couple of things to go over quickly before we launch into the program", said the Uncle. "I really like Peter Albrecht and I really like Drexel Gilbert", the Uncle said about the nicest people he's met in Mobile media. "I want you to know that you are in my thoughts and I'm thinking about you", said the Uncle, who will "go as far as pray for you". Drexel Gilbert is "just as warm in person, no pretense will converse with you at Wal-Mart", said the Uncle. "I just want the three to know that they have my support", said the Uncle. "Once the show is over, there is not a lot going on with me", said the Uncle. "There is some time I can spend with you. There is not a lot I'm up to after the show", said the Uncle. "We had a caller at the end of the program last week make idiotic comments", said the Uncle, who "reflect(s) upon the contents of every Uncle Henry Show that come on". Taking "the suggestion of the moronic suggestion, I took a look at myself over the weekend, even closer than normal, and I want you to know that I'm happy to report that I'm better than I thought", said the Uncle. "Hello Tax Man!" the Uncle said to our first live caller. "We are going to save ourselves some real prosperity", said Jim, who has an interesting range of vocals. Our host did a live commercial for Dr. Byron Scott's dental services in Mobile. "Uncle Henry Show continues here. We have news coming up in about 10 minutes", said the Uncle. "Found out a lot of these guys in the Legislature, looking forward to this raise", said the Uncle. "Do you think a member of the Legislature that does not want the pay raise" will want the extra money, the Uncle asked. "There's a bunch of guys out there that want the extra money", said the Uncle. "They have to do a voice vote to override a veto (by Gov. Bob Riley) and that will scare a lot of them off", said the Uncle. "I'd like to see a better system in the Alabama Legislature so that the new people we get up there in Montgomery will have a chance to screen their vote", said the Uncle. "It's 2007, we have technology like computers and cell phones and we even have the combustion engine", said the Uncle. "How in the world are we going to do anything in the state of Alabama if our represented people you vote for get up there in Montgomery and scream?" the Uncle asked. "Think about the technology we've got", our host suggested to the lawmakers. "It's almost like log cabin-type legislation", said the Uncle. "I would like some innovating things up there, getting a little things [more] modern", said the Uncle. "Uncle Henry Show continues. The Uncle Henry page updated everyday", said the Uncle before the break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 5/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, thank you for listening and thus being a listener", said the Uncle before today's listening audience. "It's very enjoyable that a theme here" is the weather, said the Uncle, who expects banana trees at a local nursery. "We still have leftover comments from yesterday on the smoking ban", said the Uncle. "I am very interested in this legislature pay raise story", said the Uncle. "Gov. Riley says he's going to veto it. I stand by my own conviction, eventually they will get their pay raise", our host believes. "For some of them (lawmakers), this is the more important. I want to say that the ones that are going on the record, I appreciate that. I appreciate that you have the guts to admit what you are doing", said the Uncle. "There are some of these people hiding that don't want to [reveal their vote]", said the Uncle. "Why are you up there?" the Uncle asked the secretive legislators. "What kind of people are going to go to Montgomery and not even let everyone know what they're voting for?" the Uncle asked. After campaigning and getting elected, "then you get there and don't want anyone to know what you think", said the Uncle, who is trying to avoid using harsh words (non-curse words). "I don't like the idea of votes being underreported and I don't know if it's a parliament-it's a parliamentary reason", said the Uncle. "There shouldn't be a case where you don't know", according to our host. "These that don't want to go on the record, shame on you", said the Uncle. "It's a legitimate thing, you make everyone else look bad", said the Uncle. "You're making it all look bad", our host added. "I'm perplexed by it", he admitted. "Again, I'm going to the phones here, but I'm going back to my prediction", said the Uncle. "They'll come back to you with a counteroffer that will be lower, but it'll still be a raise", said the Uncle. "He'll (Gov. Riley) give them a raise, but it will be much less", said the Uncle. "Today's (call) screening is being done by Jennifer, a young Auburn fan from the Montgomery area", said the Uncle, who did not explain the whereabouts of regular call screener Leeanna, which should be of concern to regular listeners. "Be very gentle to her", the Uncle suggested to callers, including Alabama Crimson Tide fans. "This truck house thing, I understand, I walked by there", said our first live caller Tim. "If you lived in Mobile, Henry, and you say you have two oak trees in front of your building if you're remodeling", said Tim, who asked how many oak trees you want to cut down. "You better like the trees" if you're a private citizen in Mobile, said the Uncle. "People care more about trees than they do people", said the Uncle before Tim left us. "Uncle Henry Show continues", said our host, ending the first show segment. After the first commercial break, "Uncle Henry Show continues. Isn't it a beautiful day? Going to dig something in my yard today. I don't know what I'm going to dig", said the Uncle before speaking to our next caller, who finds the substitute call screener nice. "I'll tell you this, but there are some that I like, but some of the majority of them, the rest of them I don't like", the Uncle said about the state legislators. "You've got several different places downtown that are sprucing up", said our caller. "We do want it to be a success. You know it's there, let's make it work", said the Uncle. "You know I've noticed, the RSA Tower is starting to do different light patterns", the Uncle said about the new office building in downtown Mobile. "Yeah, I just um, I was in the car taking my kids to school this morning when I heard about the pay raises", said our next caller Chad. "It's just crazy", he said. "When did we start paying our representatives? When our country started, the people who represented us were not paid", said Chad. "They were successful people who were not paid", he added. "Once every two years, I agree with you completely", said the Uncle. "I think we should just stop paying our representatives", said Chad, who believes the legislators should have "ordinary jobs" like their fellow citizens. "Don't forget the 'podcast', don't forget the Uncle Henry Show page updated daily", said the Uncle before the break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 5/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, a pleasure to be with you. I've already enjoyed-I'm listening through the glass", said the Uncle, who was listening to the "Ask the Expert" program with program director Scott O'Brien and his guest. "Sincerely, a lot a fraternal feelings toward each other, I like that", our host heard during that program. "Interesting voice mail about smoking, a guy very passionate about it", said the Uncle, who mentioned the Press-Register article about a proposal to ban smoking going through the Alabama Legislature. "Eventually, it's going to pass", our host believes. "I don't understand why it's still legal to smoke?" he asked. "I don't smoke, I've never been a smoker", said the Uncle. "There's a place in the Eastern Shore that people rave about", said the Uncle, who won't mention the name of the place to avoid "upsetting them". "I don't feel any animosity toward the restaurant", said the Uncle on this establishment that allows smoking. "Why is that something the government has to regulate? If people know the health risks of cigarettes and they know the place they're going to has smoking in it, why does the government have to go in and do something about it?" the Uncle asked. After reminding listeners how to join the show (by dialing 251 479-2723), "It will eventually be law, I don't know when, probably 20 years", the Uncle said before speaking to our first live caller. "Can you believe it how stupid John Edwards is?" the caller asked about the former U.S. senator. "He said something like, 'Jesus would be ashamed of America' and all of that", said the Uncle, quoting Edwards. "His comments were specifically about greed in America and not taking care of the poor", said the Uncle. "Bill Clinton was the best at talking his way out of trouble", said the Uncle. "Can you believe the gall that John Edwards has?" our caller asked. "John Edwards, I have not gotten excited about that guy, because he's not going to be president", said the Uncle. "Good morning. Hello", the Uncle said to our next caller, who was later identified by our host as Jay. "They'll just buy it in the underground like dope", Jay predicts for smokers and cigarettes. "We have that at our company too. If you smoke here, you have to pay extra", said the Uncle after hearing Jay mention his health being at the expense of taxpayers. "All right Jay-Bay Way Jay", said the Uncle before the first commercial break. After the break and another voice message, "Uncle Henry Show proceeding forward as we approach the news in 10 minutes", said the Uncle. "If that voice mail is accurate, that's quite ironic that Scott O'Brien talks about perfume", said the Uncle, who could smell perfume when he enters the same studio used by Scott. "Oh that Vivian Davis Figures, she is so out of her league", said Jim the Tax Man, who changed his voice at various points of his call from normal to somewhat irritating. "I don't think she wants to be a lobbyist, Tax Man. I think she's seriously considering a run for United States Senate", said the Uncle. "A lot of it would be considered positive publicity", the Uncle said, regarding Figures' support for the smoking ban. "This is very savvy, this is very cleaver", said the Uncle before speaking to caller Robert. "I am not for the government regulating everything", said Robert. "I have the right not to have to breathe it", said Robert. "When you're sitting in a restaurant eating and you're suppose to be in a non-smoking area", said Robert, the next smoking nearby "has no consideration at all". "That's somebody's right, that's what America is built upon", Robert said about smokers, but he has his own rights as well. "Maybe we need to come up with a form at a smoker's restaurants", the Uncle suggested as a way to "release the restaurant of all liabilities". "Every time I see her, I just nauseate", our next caller said about Vivian Figures. "We have words of importance next, followed by-we mainly got the news", said the Uncle. "I've been forced to update the Uncle Henry page [online]", said the Uncle, who will be updating it every day this week. Today a classic audio clip has been added. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you for listening, Uncle Henry Show underway already on this beautiful day", said the Uncle on this Wednesday morning. "I'm already an early riser and ABC, they moved their TV show 'Lost' to Wednesday night", said the Uncle, who intends on watching this program tonight. "Tomorrow's program will be a little bit abet", our host predicts. "Something to remember, you heard about-you read about it", said the Uncle, referring to last night's State of the State address. "I've got sources in Montgomery and the say Bob Riley is going to change his mind about (not) getting a pay raise to the legislators", said the Uncle. "Let's talk to John. Hello John. Hello John", said the Uncle before our caller responded to one of the recorded messages played before our host said, "Thank you so much!" "That fact of ignorance is what gives Alabama a bad image", said John. "We expect people and good people to work for less", said John. "That's a good point, John", said the Uncle, who asked, "Why would anybody be in the (state) cabinet and work hard" when there is Bishop State Community College in Mobile? "Maybe we'll begin to climb from the bottom of the bad list and into the good list", said the Uncle. "The special cell phone number, if you're on a cell phone, is 251-479-2723", said the Uncle, as he reminded listeners how to call in. Danny Sheraton, longtime fanatic of Mike Dow, former mayor of Mobile, has "released odds on the 2010 governor's race" on the website Mobile Bay Times. "The comments are just priceless, that's at Mobile Bay Times.com", said the Uncle before taking a commercial break. After the break and a voice message, "Uncle Henry Show continuing on a beautiful, beautiful Monday-oh this is Wednesday. Is this Mobile? I'm not sure what town I'm in", said the Uncle. "All right, I'm on WPMI-AM 710, the Uncle Show proceeding forward", said the Uncle after asking listeners for some time to himself. "There's this news out that there is bus service between Mobile and Baldwin County", said the Uncle. "Baldwin County Commission trying to get start up money from the federal government to do this", said the Uncle. "If there's actually a demand for this, wouldn't people pay for Riley?" our host asked, hopefully proving himself wrong. "I think they want to get workers to ride over to Mobile County from Baldwin County", said the Uncle. "Are workers in Mobile, are they going to get paid much more in Baldwin County?" our host asked. "It would be four buses a day, two in the morning and two in the afternoon", said the Uncle. "Then from there, it would go to downtown Mobile and the GM&O building", said the Uncle. "If you were in Mobile, any of the beautiful spots in Mobile, like say Crichton, you can get on the bus and ride over to the beautiful paradise in Fairhope", said the Uncle. "How many people are going to ride the bus from Crichton, for example, to Daphne? I'm just-I'm not-scratching my head", said the Uncle. "What happened to the ferry?" the Uncle asked. "Maybe this bus service will be like this ferry, it would be something popping out in theory", said the Uncle. "I'm haven't already [watched] 'Lost' yet", said the Uncle, who is already feeling tired. "When you're driving down Government, you play these mental games trying to figure out what these people are doing down here", said the Uncle. "It's a nice little mental exercise", he believes. "If they had the bus service, you will have already boarded that", said the Uncle. "The Uncle Henry Show continuing, we have news coming up", said the Uncle, but first an on-air promotion for Hall's Meats, the popular meat product from Chickasaw, Alabama. "The Hall's Meats are excellent on the grill", said the Uncle. "Ask for it by name, it's spelled H-A-L-L, Hall's Meats", said the Uncle before the commercial break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!

Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you so much for listening, thank you for making the Uncle Henry Show the most popular program of its genre in Mobile radio history", said the Uncle, "rewarding" the early listeners of this station. "You made the right decision joining me now", said the Uncle, who has "a lot to talk about" on today's program. "I hate to talk about state, but well we've got it", said the Uncle, referring to the State of the State address by Gov. Bob Riley tonight. "It really-that will tell you everything you want to hear that Alabama is wonderful", said the Uncle. "He's going to say something like, 'Alabama is great, the state of the state is great' ", said the Uncle. "I am astonished as many folks at the story as details emerge about the awful management at Bishop State [Community College]", said the Uncle after reading the news headline on the front page of today's Press-Register. "Some of them were there for 20 years and didn't get degrees or only get degrees. It's a two year college system", said the Uncle. "By the way, Yvonne Kennedy was there when she started out in 1992", said the Uncle. "We're talking decades!" the Uncle said, raising his voice. "I can't believe there's not some sort of oversight somewhere in our bureaucracy", said the Uncle. "I am just-they need to get a class for the crook", said the Uncle. "It is just awful", he added. "Hello, good morning", the Uncle said to our first live caller Jim the Tax Man. "Let me tell you, over in Mississippi, on their junior college system", said Jim. "You cannot have an elective office. That's right, you cannot be the mayor or a state legislative", Jim explained. "You ain't seen nothing yet. Close Bishop State college down", said Jim. "I'm going to do a write up after tax season", said Jim. "The junior colleges start right here in the City of Mobile", said Jim. "We are approving this criminal" out here, said Jim before leaving us. "That's one thing I like about Bob Riley is that he sounds like he's from around here", said the Uncle. "I want to talk to someone younger than me that might have some experience with colleges", said the Uncle before summoning Trey Lane, who is screening calls today. There was no mention of regular call screener Leeanna at this point. "Have you been to college?" our host asked Trey, who has been to college for one day. "What kind of instrument am I listening to?" the Uncle asked Trey, whose theme music is playing. "That is Various and Sundry Instruments", said Trey. "Did you get a grade when you were in?" the Uncle asked. "No", Trey responded. "Are you a wordsmith, do you like words?" the Uncle asked Trey, who considers himself to be a vocabularium. Trey gave listeners the website address vocabularium.com. "Are you a little older than college age?" he asked Trey, who is older than most college age students. "I want to thank you for sharing some life", said the Uncle. "Trey Lane, thank you", said the Uncle. "Uncle Henry Show being screened today by a vocabularium. "I think Vincent Price was the Vocabularium on the Batman TV series", said the Uncle. "The 'B' would stand next to the 'M' ", our host remembers, followed by the inclusion of the 'A'. "I did watch it a lot, because my son was 4-years-old", said the Uncle, who believes his son equals "Batman" to "Crime Scene Investigation". After the commercial break, "I always wondered why Burt Ward didn't get much work after that show", said the Uncle. "I thought he did a good job", said the Uncle before speaking to caller Cecil. According to one of Cecil's friends, "If she (Miss Kennedy) does not know what is going on", she is among the stupidest to ever live. Cecil mentioned that his friends, like the Bishop State Community College president, are black. "You have to understand, I don't have a racist bone in my body, but I believe they can do something better", said Cecil. "Can't somebody look and see and double check if somebody is going to college for 20 years using federal grant money? That's not too much to ask", said the Uncle. "Sunday night, I had a chance to listen to Matt Drudge on this 2-hour show", said our next caller Freddie. "Thank you for calling and defending Hillary Clinton", said the Uncle. "Yeah, that's really authentic", said the Uncle before the break. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.7/5!

Today's Show




We start off today's show without the unofficial theme song "My Love is Mobile" ("that's my wonderful town"), but with those familiar notes of music ("CBS Special Presentation 1973") leading up to a select group of voice messages bridged by sound effects. "Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, al-already a pleasure", said the Uncle, who was irritated by one of the recorded voice messages. "Got a beautiful view of the roof at the Channel 5 (WKRG) building", said the Uncle. Telephone number (251) 479-2723 is the long-distance number "for the listeners in Gulfport", said the Uncle, once again acknowledging that 710 AM's signal reaches Gulfport, Mississippi. "Anytime somebody becomes known by just one word, like Cher, it's a big-they've become popular", said the Uncle, referring to folks such as presidential candidates like Obama. "If I say Hillary, you know who I'm talking about", said the Uncle. "I don't think anyone one of them is going to be president or vice president", said the Uncle, who quickly changed his mind about the chance for one of the candidates being elected vice president of the USA. "I don't think the current crop of democrat folks want the Clintons to continue", said the Uncle. "I think they would prefer the Obama. Oprah likes Obama, movie stars like Obama. It's not looking good for Hillary", said the Uncle. " 'Stars Fall on Selma' is the headline", said the Uncle after reading today's Press-Register. "Speaking of stars, this past weekend, I went over to my daughter's house and they had on 'Entertainment Tonight' ", said the Uncle. "The 'Entertainment Tonight' program this past Friday night was the funeral of Anna Nicole Smith", said the Uncle. "She was dressed in black, the lady who hosts the show was dressed in black", said the Uncle. "It was serious-Entertainment Tonight", said the Uncle, who noticed the somber tone of the program's theme music. "They kept saying 'we were the only ones' " in the Bahamas, said the Uncle. "A lot of funerals can be entertaining", according to our host, who doesn't understand the funeral coverage on "Entertainment Tonight". "I missed something here. I really missed something", said the Uncle. "I don't think I've ever seen this woman in anything", said the Uncle. "Can anybody explain to me what she ever did to be covered like this?" the Uncle asked his audience. "They're going to continue their coverage tomorrow night", said the Uncle. "It's like, it's almost like someone really important has passed away", said the Uncle. "We in this country have become so voyeuristic, to use a word I rarely use", said the Uncle. "I'm very left out of this. I'm wondering-we might turn this to our advantage", our host believes. "We could take the baby (of Smith) and send it over to Baghdad. That might end sectarian violence", said the Uncle. "The baby might be the key to peace in the world", said the Uncle, who suggests taking the child to "the Soviets, the Chinese, and the Iranians". "Have CNN and CBS and Entertainment Tonight covering it", said the Uncle. "Maybe if the Congress can pass some type of special law signed by President Bush drafting the baby", the Uncle suggested, thus causing folks to pay attention to the conflict in West Asia for once. "Reaching the masses of mind-numbed nuts" who get their news from Jay Leno and views from "The Dixie Chicks", our host believes. "The Uncle Henry Show continues here on NewsRadio 710 WPMI", said the Uncle before the first commercial break. After the commercial break and a voice message, "Uncle Henry Show continues on a beautiful Monday", said the Uncle. "Good morning, hello there", the Uncle said to our first live caller Steve. "Was she a star of any kind?" the Uncle asked about Smith. "When she was 17, she started dancing in strip clubs", said Steve. "That's where she met that Marshall character", Steve added. "Oh right, she was a Playmate of the Year", said the Uncle after Steve mentioned it. "Do they get special prizes for being Playmate of the Year?" the Uncle asked. "The coverage of this whole funeral and the fact that she has died" has taken more time than the Reagan and Ford funerals, said Steve. "There's something really wrong here, Uncle Henry", said Steve. "You don't hear too many people talk about how good her life was", said Steve. "Maybe when the television goes to a test pattern for several hours a day. Something blows up somewhere", according to Steve, who considers himself to be a "shovel person" and not a computer person. "I'm a weed person", said the Uncle, who pulls weeds out of his yards with great satisfaction. "If any country tries to invade this country, they need to make sure that they don't do anything to the televisions", said the Uncle before speaking to our next caller, who was interested in our host's puppy dog. "If you like taking change out of your pocket", said the Uncle, who suggests that some folks "make sure" they pick up their change before the dog eats it. Before the first commercial break, the Uncle reminds us that the show will continue after the break. "The kind of stuff you wished you had on the weekend", he said. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.8/5!

"Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the numerous recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you so much, it's always been a pleasure, yes, it's always been pleasurable", said the Uncle, who has been feeling pleasurable long before the show started. "The Uncle Henry Show in progress on this beautiful Friday! (251) 479-2723 is the number", said the Uncle. "Make sure you know the phone number, as we have several", our host suggested before mentioning all the telephone numbers to contact him. "In case you are afraid to talk to me directly, it's (251) 706-2855, that's 706-2855, that's 706-BULL", the Uncle said about the answering machine number. "A young lady who's never call screened before" is being tested today, said the Uncle, who did not mention the whereabouts of regular call screener Leeanna. "Be very nice to Jennifer", said the Uncle, who has actually worked with this young lady at a remote broadcast. "Just treat her as nice as you can when you call in", said the Uncle before speaking to our first live caller Barbara Young, who mentioned her last name on the air. She wants some more information on a recently deceased serviceman and his family. "Could you explain more?" the Uncle asked. "Don't release the phone line, because I'm continuing to talk to you", said the Uncle. Barbara has no electronic mail address, the Uncle learned, but she does have Internet access. "I'm in the dark ages", said Barbara. Our host directed Barbara to the Birmingham News website to read the news article written about this family. "It should be easy to find", said the Uncle. "Thank you very much", said Barbara before leaving us. Our host reminds listeners that most of the electronic messages he receives are unsolicited. "There's somebody in Africa that needs my help", said the Uncle after reading one message. "Once you get into it and start e-mailing people, there's something that is lost in e-mail that is lost from other kinds of messages, including letters", said the Uncle. "I think it hurts more people's feelings in e-mail than in any other mean of communications", said the Uncle. "The article caused me a little emotion when I read it, and there was a family whose son was killed in Iraq, and the parents didn't like Bush, and they were going to tell him", said the Uncle. "He (the papa) kept the grandbaby on his lap the entire time (conversation with G. W. Bush lasted 45 minutes)" as a way of getting pensions for the young girl, said the Uncle. "The family really likes Bush now because of this. Good article, read it yourself", said the Uncle. After the first commercial break and the voice message that immediately proceeded the break, "Uncle Henry Show continues on a wonderful Friday. Are you excited about your new Wal-Mart in West Mobile? Near Providence Hospital, that's West Mobile to me", said the Uncle. "They are telling us that Airport Blvd. can handle extra traffic, no problem", said the Uncle. "They are going to do something special to the traffic light", said the Uncle, specifically synchronization. "There are so many lights on that road and so many people driving on that road have no concept of where they are and what they are doing, probably out of the question of how you would [be driving] on that road", said the Uncle. Folks who work along Airport Blvd "are excited as they can be", according to our host. "They've got the brand aspiration group" at Wal-Mart, said the Uncle, along with "the priced-sensitive affluence", and "the valued-priced shopper" groups. "I feel sympathy toward the people that get in there with 15 children wearing diapers", said the Uncle, who suggests a "special elderly line" for folks who want "no fuss, no bust". "Right now, a lot of people are listening to the 'podcast' and I don't understand the technology", said the Uncle, who is aware of folks that actually take the show's audio anywhere they go. "This weekend, it's special you have a longer period of time to listen to it", he said about the show's online 'podcast'. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 5/5!

"Ok here we go, hello you're on the air", our host's regularly played tribute to former radio talk show Dan Daniels followed the numerous recorded messages. Reggie Copeland ("and I know what I did when I woke up this morning at a quarter of six and I said this is going to be a great day in the City of Mobile and that felt so good") of the Mobile City Council and "The Idea Guy" ("when I woke up this morning at 5:13 and 32 seconds, I knew that this was going to be a great day in the City of Mobile") followed that clip from Mobile's radio past. Ending this theme of audio clips on today being "a great day in the City of Mobile" was Tim ("it is a great day in the City of Mobile, yeah that's right"). "Thank you so much! Thank you listener, thank you for listening, thus becoming a listener", said the Uncle, who felt the need to "fast forward" to certain parts of today's show "to experience it all at the same time", an "unusual concept in Mobile, Alabama". "Number one, there will be no call screening today", the Uncle brought to our attention. "I've got a deep and abiding faith in my fellow man who listens to talk shows, especially females", said the Uncle, who will be receiving today's callers directly. "Tornado warning in effect until 10 o'clock in north Baldwin County", said the Uncle, who is aware of the show's popularity in Baldwin County. "I've never been to Carney", the Uncle said after listing Baldwin County communities under the tornado warning. "The safest place to be during a tornado is in the basement or under a workbench", said the Uncle, who has never heard of such recommendations. "I never called a closet a room, but I'm not going to argue with them", said the Uncle. "The National Weather Service says you should lie in a ditch", said the Uncle. "A lot of this is news to me", the Uncle admits. "I'll keep you updated, I'll have those very information at my fingertips", said the Uncle before speaking to our first live caller Freddie. Our caller believes Mike Marshall, editor of the Press-Register, should resign over what he believes to be a vendetta over "the young black lady" Yvonne Kennedy, president of Bishop State Community College. "Bishop State's nursing program has had many times when they were on probation", said the Uncle. "Look, there's no comparison", the Uncle said about two of Mobile's colleges. "Let me give you another example", said Freddie. "You don't want them to reporting it", our host believes Freddie is implying. "Oh, it's the cartoons! Oh my goodness, gracious, it's the cartoons that are unfair", said the Uncle after Freddie mentioned Press-Register cartoonist J. D. Crowe. "You appreciate talking, but you don't appreciate listening", said the Uncle after Freddie tried comparing Jack Tillman, former Mobile County sheriff, to Yvonne Kennedy. "He was run out of office!" said the Uncle. "Maybe if you've got an archive of Press-Registers, you might want to look back at the anti-Jack Tillman editorials", said the Uncle. "You're bellyaching, whining, and crying for nothing", said the Uncle, who would apologize for using the term "bull crap". "Quite frankly himself, David Thomas lended himself to cartoons", the Uncle said about the former Mobile County Public School System member. "Let's look at the past with clear glasses on. They editorialize about numerous politicians and Jack Tillman was one of the most attacked by that paper", said the Uncle. After the first commercial break, "Uncle Henry Show continues. A lovely day, despite the tornadoes", said the Uncle. "The program will probably be repeatedly interrupted by the emergency alert system", said the Uncle, but he believes some listeners might actually enjoy the interruptions. "Hey, good morning", said caller Nick, who just opened his newspaper to read a letter to the editor related to the community college president. "I know that you're on hold, I've to break for news", the Uncle said to one caller who did not make it on the air. Today's 9:30 AM half-hour gets a 4.5/5!
