things up yeah we were supposed to have uh mayor quinton lucas tonight right we put out the big announcement because his staff has scheduled uh mayor q for tonight and then uh yesterday they let me know that oops they had double booked him because he is out at royal’s home opener he’s saying the national anthem i don’t know about that we’ll have to ask him how that went uh but I’m surprised you’re not out at the game today well i’ve only been to royals home opener maybe twice uh i’ve enjoyed it but it’s just not my thing not because i don’t like baseball or the royals i just it’s not my thing because you overpay for one game right yeah just just go to a game later in the season yeah pay a lot less money and enjoy the game all the same hey guys uh brad’s got a special uh musical treat for us tonight and you’re going to want to stick around for that it’s a it’s a locally produced actually it’s a locally subject song not locally produced i guess locally produced because you produced

you know we’ve got a special guest joining us by zoom tonight and uh you know tech man schneider has been working some magic all afternoon awesome schneider uh if you could uh let me know if we have our special guest ready just a little hand signal okay we’re gonna bring on our special guest i believe right now brad are you excited i am very excited i can’t wait it’s been a while it’s been a while there he is there he is it’s former platte city mayor frank offutt here thank you thanks for joining us frank thank you for the kind invitation well you are so welcome and we are thrilled that you’re coming on you know uh i i said uh frank you know I’m gonna be honest with you we’re kind of doing a test run of some zoom uh possibilities and we’d like to uh have you to kind of zoom in and be our test test run and by golly you did it because you’ve always been a strong supporter of landmark live and I’m being serious about that we appreciate your support through the years well i feel honored to be the beta test and you’re doing well so far you even put a suit on for this I’m kind of jealous i mean you look sharp you’re a sharp-dressed man well when you’re out there promotion pushing product like the landmark live program you know presentation is everything is it true we do we do need some sales reps for this we do we could you know and frank’s retired as mayor now so frank if you got any extra time we’ll set up a phone bank you start making some calls sell some products sell some ads just do it all for us cost close how how the heck did you get so high you’re up there by the water tower are you on a ladder right now you know they can do so many things with electronics okay well because you’re not the kind of guy to get high as i know right i climb water towers but you know it’s all h2o swimming uphill now listen uh not only were you mayor you also you’re involved with the platform water district you’re you’re a rhodes guy with platte city special roads district i mean you’ve kind of the public works guy for every utility out there basically through the years right it’s a well-rounded education over these past few years yes it has been is there any utility that you’ve not been directly involved in [Music] i was going to say sewers but you had sewers in the city i mean you know so you’ve done sewers right sirs um gas old telephones or he’s the thing called hardwired telephones you know copper yeah I’m dating myself of course yeah well uh brad dates himself quite often as well but that’s a that’s it and can we pause i’d like to extend a very happy 50th birthday to mr brad carl thank you very much mayor frank really appreciate that uh you had mentioned off air before we started the show that if you were still mayor you could have just named this day my day forever in platte county yeah but yeah i appreciate the sentiment you know and if you take that proclamation to any dining establishment you get preferred seed eating that is awesome that’s great that’s almost better than having a burger named after yourself which might be cool too but take that up to take that up to lc’s hamburgers and see uh you can get some preferred seating up there i’ll see what i can do so thank you though frank appreciate that mayor what did you do go ahead I’m sorry no i was wondering what’s the 50th birthday and stuff any natural hormone replacement therapy or anything that is not not yet uh but uh if i I’m gonna have to look around I’m sure eventually [Laughter] I’m doing okay a lot of good specialists out there yes thank goodness brad’s had kind of a rough year you see a little gray in his beard now you know we didn’t i don’t remember seeing that last year so that’s kind of a new development well it’s because it’s because i couldn’t go out and get buy new razors so it just kind of kept growing and growing and that’s that’s what happened i mean my beard doesn’t grow very fast this is two years of growth oh wow wow we’ve grown that since eighth grade i never quit right frank you’re no longer mayor you know we’ve just we’ve established that fact so what are you doing now in your retirement from public life even though you still have real jobs right still got to put food on the table every week yes the water district in the road district I’m lucky to still be a public servant and be employed by the same uh my wife is getting to see a little more of me and she’s a lot happier and the old saying happy wife happy life she’s supported me through you know 16 years of mayorship so I’m thankful for that yeah um we’re home having a lot more dinners together uh we see a lot more of each other and uh she’s enjoying it i like it a lot those calendar monthly calendar meetings i think there’s 23 openings now um the staff at city hall did a good job of keeping you organized but yeah it makes a difference when you take 23 meetings every month off books you know one of my favorite frank offit policies was never let any meeting go longer than i believe it was an hour right we always got out of there within an hour if i was there covering a meeting and frank says he just ended that puppy i like that the 60-minute rule 60-minute rule he just cut it off he’s like time’s up you know it was pretty cool well and i will say this just i mean obviously i was never there but uh just knowing that annoying you frank and knowing that rule about you that’s some leadership right there i mean in truth and no joke in the side that that’s why meetings are so messy sometimes whether you’re in business or you know whether you’re in public service or whatever it might be it’s like you’ve got to be able to have somebody in charge of the thing that knows when to say when and when to direct it and everything else so clearly you you did that for a reason uh maybe just so you get home to dinner but i don’t know [Laughter] well a meeting by attrition and you know it’s the last man standing rule when that event happens and the meeting goes on for five six seven hours and what’s being accomplished because staff to their credit do a tremendous amount of the heavy lifting preparing for the meeting and they bring the meal to the table for the board to make a decision upon and when we were using the subcommittee style of government which they’re still continuing today at city hall and plant city it gives them a chance to see what’s happening address the issue and do they like it or not and there it doesn’t waste the time full board getting into the nitty-gritty and working out the small details and usually by those two looks at the subcommittee and the full board level things get covered pretty well that’s great yeah now you said more dinners at home who does the cooking at your house frank we take turns do you really you got a little uh some skills in the kitchen do you oh that boy scout comes out you know cooking merit badge you know you were a big boy scout too were you big supporter of the scout program still to this day right platte city troop 248 produced a lot of fine leaders in our community and we’re very blessed uh you know a lot of lessons that were handed down from them and we continue to try to pass along to the next generation okay hey frank i wanted to touch on because you’re a rhodes guy too as well as a water guy sewer guy uh telecommunications guy you’re just an all-around guy so uh i was writing this week in the paper a little bit about the state of the highway between like the high school the school district area all the way up to the post office and that section of roadway i was talking to you the city administrator the other day and dj gert had mentioned that i said gert it’s actually garrett um dj had mentioned that the base for that section of the highway is not the same as the base on the other sections of the highway and thus we’ve had a lot of potholes this winter to say the least so describe for us or explain in layman’s terms what the heck is going on there it wasn’t all built at once modot continually comes up with new ideas i have a lot of friends at modot uh new engineers come in they’re still looking for the perfect blend and when it comes to painting a new idea comes along every couple years they decide this is the hot thing kind of like fashion uh kind of in the tall weeds here but a blend mix or a base for compaction how much gravel how much concrete or asphalt what type of asphalt they’re constantly coming up with a new blending a hot thing now is actually a kdot mix from canyons for the surface but in the case of the surface coming up off highway 92 in the area they try to be economic because two inches of asphalt versus three quarters or an inch of asthma you know you can cut your cost of maintenance in half the unfortunate things in missouri is that our roads freeze and thaw and if a little bit of water gets underneath it pops loose and you know we have what 25 below degrees and what a few weeks ago and that does an excellent job of fracturing off that surface whereas if you have a little more asphalt on top and a good tacky coat to make it stick she’s a little more resilient yeah well brad’s always said a good tacky coat works for him i i i have no comment i probably should there are certain words we can’t say okay uh so frankly rpg what do you miss the most out of uh out of not being around city hall these days what do you miss the most of not being around yeah the public the public content contact working with people you know platte city is really a unique blend because where self-existence is predominantly the case in flat city because of being a bedroom community and yet we’re close enough to metropolitan area for those special interests that people would like to see to make that journey you know to the kansas city area you know for the larger venue events like a royals baseball game but when they’re ready to conclude their 40-hour 40-hour work week and they want to come home and have a nice hometown atmosphere that city is a really special place okay what’s your major highlight that you will always be proud of what you got accomplished in your time at the city i know there’s a long list and this is a short show frank but just give us the top one or two um you know if it’s worth assisting with the development of landmark live of course right yeah if uh if it were a long term goal probably kentucky avenue you know that was something on the books for 60 years to get wrapped up 50 60 years from the time it was thought up until it came to fruition so we got to close that one up and get kentucky down um second biggest thing i would believe would be platte city’s capital improvement program i’ll probably always be tagged as the capital improvement mayor uh in flat city because it was really rebuilding from the underground up makes your quality service existence and that allows and attracts people who want to come to platte city if you have good roads reliable infrastructure businesses can profit synergy turns on itself and continues to provide benefits back to the city and the citizens who live here absolutely so uh so what’s in your plans now uh and i know one thing i want to we want to connect connect with you for a landmark live show from your boat i know you’re a boating guy you like to go out on smithfield lake right so one of these days we’re going to bring our landmark live show to your boat we’re going to go out we’re going to do a live show while we’re out on the water with you you all right with that you have to make sure you wear your personal floatation guys okay i’ve gotten i’ve got plenty of those all right [Laughter] safety first right so uh what’s on that are you gonna uh go home and eat when you climb down from the water tower tonight what’s ahead for your evening because it’s brad’s birthday we might want to swing by and celebrate at your house if that’s all right later I’m always suspicious that uh barrel that’s between the two of you it’s not shown on the screen right now but there was a barrel is that what the girl jumps out of in the after show that might actually happen on screen you’re going to have to hang around for the rest of the show frank yeah i wait to see you know i want to thank you very much for the kind invitation to come and visit with you i believe this is the first not only heavy i mean carl here on brad carl here on his birthday on april fool’s day but also having a former mayor on landmark live so a lot of firsts on april 1st now listen uh i had one quick question before you go frank frank when you were mayor of platte city was there ever a speakeasy operating in town that you knew of no uh there’s never speakeasy even during the uh prohibition days okay you’re a historian so you would know that you would probably just go to someone’s home right well we’re gonna we’re gonna talk speakeasy which is a lot cheaper by the way i might add the reason we’ll bring that up we’re gonna talk a lot about speakeasies before the show is over so just thought i’d uh uh no memberships were required right exactly oh man right so we’re getting uh a message here that arm floaties when we go out on your boat are a must so uh we’ll we’ll be sure to pack those as well i have a couple of floaties left over from the time they made me do the dunk tank at one of your police officers oh wow yeah yeah i load it up i i think water wings is appropriate well you know we’ll uh we’ll go with water wings okay but with those guns that you’ve got yeah i’ll bust right through those puppies right yeah yeah we better look in and order something off amazon you know early yep hey frank buddy thanks for joining us uh we do appreciate it and we do thank you for all you did in your time as mayor to help landmark live you’re always ready to come on the show and bounce on here whenever we were out live at a festival or whatever and uh we do appreciate your support of the show over the years my friend we do well i like the new look to your show the graphics the support and the i.t has really come a long way I’m trying to hit you here appreciate it yeah we’ve got a new tech man schneider and he’s really making a difference so frank thank you sir and we will be in touch thanks for helping us test out all this new tech thank you frank thank you for the birthday wishes too happy birthday again thank you sir everybody appreciate it we’ll see you goodbye i think he was putting his finger in your ear at one point were you feeling that what is it did you yeah okay that was good well frank good good man a big supporter of the show we appreciate him coming on helping us test out the tech i right i think it went well i mean well from our end it went well yeah it looked you know i mean we could hear him yeah he could hear us that’s a that’s a good start right so we have anything else still going we do one guy uh one uh person named isaac pasley paz paisley he wants to go back to the springs of aquatic center uh i guess that’s uh oh that’s that’s yeah tiffany springs yeah tiffany springs yeah okay yeah best place to cool off in platte county and another person on there wished you a happy birthday and i earl hoy i think was oh earl yeah earl earl’s a good uh good friend of mine uh bowling friend all right earl well yeah thank you earl i want to crash the party later you uh very good i’ll send you a text exactly so now uh you’ve had something going on you’ve been working on a musical project right well i have that musical project was uh conceived really through the plat county landmark and and uh rumors and rumors yeah crews and and and public uh public uh public footage yeah and um i you know I’m a creative mind uh I’m just very flattered you know one thing i’ll sidetrack real quick facebook it drives me crazy because i have a little bit of ocd yeah and so when it’s my birthday people oh my what there’s a barrel between us okay how’d that magically appear tell you what wow frank was right there that’s cool that’s gonna be great i love it frank’s still watching because that could get tricky tricky but uh facebook the birthday greetings right yes so you know when your birthday’s on april 1st everybody remembers it throughout your life number one number two facebook reminds them if you put your correct birthday in there right so i get birthday greetings all day long you know and and and the ocd in me is like i’ve got to respond to every one of them oh i do too so it’s very difficult so i’ve been doing it all day and so I’m trying to think now why i brought that up oh one person just said something you know very nice about oh it’s actually it was it was ck carey the magician that we had on a couple years ago he said happy birthday you know if my math is right you know you’re you’re a big five o today and happy birthday to one of the the best creative minds or whatever that that i know and I’m like that was very nice man yeah it’s it’s exactly you must want something um and you speak of a guy who doesn’t look his age i think he’s my age so he doesn’t look fifty he looks 12 yeah so that’s good yeah but anyway uh so yeah i just i just like to put things together and I’m I’m I’m musically inclined i have been for a while yes you yes you are now this uh this story all started with some uh allegations of a speakeasy type operation or private club operation that’s kind of operating on the down low yeah in in parkville and so you know we kind of mentioned that one week in passing because i mean we don’t want to we don’t want to get in too many details here but um right but we kind of uh threw that out there and it’s it’s the talk of the town in fact i got contacted by someone with one of the tv stations yeah in kansas city who uh had heard the same stories and knows those the same details that we do so other media know about it so we’re kind of breaking uh breaking this breaking ground here so to speak wow and so you’ve kind of put together a little little tune and a video and we’re going to get to that in just a second right schneider do you have that queued up and ready to rock and roll okay well you want to do it now i mean i think it’s fine this is i’ll just say real quick this is the world premiere uh nobody else has seen this and there is not available anywhere else and even after we show it on the show it will not be available until tomorrow morning on youtube when it goes live so you’re on a real world premiere here this is uh my song uh meet me at the speakeasy yeah and uh it’s kind of a salute to parkville i i’d say that’s the best way to put it and I’m kind of proud of this yeah so whenever you’re ready schneider whenever you’re ready yeah roll roll tape that’s it how’d you like it it was quiet and the the invisible invisible aspect of the video walking down the street you never know who you meet through the back door of the secret store people passed out on the floor before i drive my vehicle there can you tell me do you have mike’s heart lemonade yes ma’am okay let’s be sure do you have the kind that’ll make you blow a 0.11 after drinking only one bottle ma’am that’s the only kind we have [Music] me me [Music] okay well just so you know I’m somebody pretty important in this town and also for the record yes ma’am I’m not very good at tests so I’m just warning you [Music] sunshine i hate sunshine [Music] me [Music] it was like [Music] is [Music] um like i said you’re under arrest [Music] [Applause] [Music] me [Music] me yeah that’s I’m gonna assume that was you on the guitar that was me that that that last lick is the extent of my lead guitar playing that’s about all i can do and the dancers oh my gosh you know um public uh public footage and the guy back there he was doing the stanky leg before that was that was like that was like a breakdancer man what’s up that was like i had no idea the alderman could dance like that i didn’t know it either but it looks like they’re having a good time oh my gosh that was fantastic by the way you’re watching landmark live it’s a production of the platte county landmark newspaper I’m ivan foley this is my co-host my 50 year old buddy brad carl i i should also mention because i know you were asking me about it yes uh the song will be the music video is is live tomorrow on youtube at 8. and then two weeks two weeks from tomorrow the song will be available for download and streaming anywhere itunes spotify itunes spotify amazon the whole nine yards sign me up for that yeah and then uh you know i mean who knows where it might take them the cure will follow i think speaking of the tour you have to do that every show for now i love it i love it listen uh i got uh you know when i when we first started talking about this in the newspaper there was mentioned of of the private club speak easy that nobody knows about but everybody knows about right and so a friend of mine i should say friend more of an acquaintance than a friend uh shortly after uh reading the account of uh this place in the landmark she started texting me uh one evening and so I’m going to read some of those texts because she’s actually been to the location of this alleged secret operation i feel like i have been after writing that song and making that video yeah so I’m gonna how about we kind of tease it you know i’ll read one or two texts and then we can break to another topic and come back to it okay kind of a cliffhanger i’ve got some birthday stuff but oh yeah we’ve got a lot yet to do okay yeah but go ahead okay this uh and this is from a person and by the way this is not this is not a cook this person works in a respected field a very respected person in her field and so uh let me get to that she texted me so brian and that’s her fiance okay brian and i were in this shop one day i’ll skip that sentence because that would give away yeah that tells too much um i was in back of his store and there’s like an iron door that’s kind of hidden and i saw these people in like a bar area and i was like oh look brian we can go buy a drink and that guy got really weird with us like he wanted us to leave and so brian my fiancee got super inquisitive with him tease we’re going to leave it there we’ll come back to it later in the show there’s a lot more to come that’s awesome on the text thread from someone who’s been inside or actually to the hidden store i think you called it yeah secret store secret store the secret store yeah so we’ll come back to that uh but anyway you’ve got some birthday talk for us i do and i’d also like to thank uh thank you i like to thank your wife for wishing me happy birthday oh hey yeah thank you linda good to know she’s actually watching the show yeah and i and isaac uh thank you for uh the kind words about the song he says cool song i really appreciate that i like isaac i think he’s going to be a new top fan i believe i hope so I’m just going to right now going to anoint isaac a new top fan i like it he’s a friend of the show we call him that’s what we say yes exactly so so i was born this is really interesting i thought this was interesting i wanted to pass some of this stuff on i was born april 1st 1971 obviously some iron i think it was about 2 or 2 30 in the afternoon if i recall correctly it was snowing it was up in mason city iowa but i thought this is interesting because i don’t think this works out for everybody and i could be wrong but i guess it depends on what year you were born i was born on thursday april 1st 1971. today is thursday april 1st 2012 so that’s kind of cool i thought i came up with that one all on my own you’re smart yeah well so is the internet um a few things too in numerology what does my birthday mean well the numbers in my birthday 4-1 and 1971 reveals that my life path number and i didn’t know this ivan I’m 50 years old my life path number is five it represents progress adventure and opportunity it says i possess the curiosity of a cat and long to experience all of life yeah you have cat like quickness too right and i mean yeah cool cat i don’t know when you’ve ever seen the only time you’re going to see my cat like witness quickness is if i have to go get a tan from vic yeah no exactly exactly that’s good stuff so what what was happening did you research what was happening on the day of your birthday yeah the number one song in the in in the country uh at that time was uh just my imagination by the temptations okay cool song number one country song by the way was a song called after the fire by conway twitty and loretta lynn lorena lynn’s still alive by the way in making music yes he’s only twenty dead yes conway tweety’s gone but i have listened to both of them in the last week really believe it or not yes yes number one r b song was what’s going on by marvin gaye good song okay now price of gold not that i’ve got a lot of it but the price of gold at that time was a 39 uh but roughly 39 an ounce what was bitcoin back then bitcoin they don’t for some reason they don’t have that one no how about this one the median new home price in 1971 was 25 800 wow yeah i don’t think you can buy any house for that anymore no no no uh price of a new car you want to take a stab oh boy I’m gonna say eight thousand dollars that’s too high ivan thirty six hundred and ninety two dollars goodness yes yes gallon of gas you want to take a stab on that one 1971 I’m gonna say 68 cents ah 36 cents no kid i had no idea was that wow yeah it was about 68 cents maybe a little bit higher when i started driving 16 years later really maybe 70s 80s and something like that yeah loaf of bread was a quarter back then um i thought this was really interesting too I’m a little nervous about this it says that my birthday compatibility and they’re talking about like lover compatibility it says that your love match is uh are most compatible this is weird with a person born on july 31st 1962. oh so I’m most compatible with a 58 year old that i don’t know about that that’s really weird do you know anyone who was born on july 31 1962 because you better find them no i know a few that were born close to that that some of them are actually hold public office um do they hit speakeasy maybe yes I’m least compatible with somebody born on april 2nd 1952. oh my gosh that weird which makes sense because i don’t think i’d want to be with a 69 year old maybe a little bit too old for me but yeah well it could be wrong um I’m showing great restraint too you could say a lot more i know i know you could a couple more things real quick that i think you’ll appreciate uh 18 262 days since i was born wow 6 00 87 days spent sleeping 33 percent of my life has been roughly has been spent sleeping yeah and uh years spent sleeping then 16.67 years of my 50 isn’t that amazing crazy one more thing this is weird what were you in your past life you were a female in your last earthly incarnation you were born somewhere around the territory of southern england approximately 1400 your profession this is odd your profession was handicraftsman mechanic so i was a woman handicraftsman mechanic in southern england in 1400 that something’s not right there wow that’s something well i don’t know you don’t really have mechanical skills right now no that’s what’s so funny about it is i have no mechanical skills nero zero sound like you know these days you could choose to go out like a woman if that was in your plan you know if you that’s true i could do that but i don’t think that’s okay what i want to do that’s not probably not for me not for me not that there’s anything wrong with that if that’s what you want to do right but that’s yeah I’m just saying that was an option yeah now uh you’re watching landmark live it’s a production of the platte county landmark I’m ivan foley this is birthday boy brad carl turned 50 and he’s proud of it i’ve never seen a grown man so excited for well i wasn’t i wasn’t very proud of it coming up to it and then the last year had a lot going on besides covid and i’ve just i’ve embraced it I’m like you know what it is what it is there’s a lot of people that are 50 or over and um you know I’m just glad that i made it this far you know because you never know no no no you don’t and uh we’re glad you made it this far too because i mean the show would not be the same if you had just like not made it tonight no because you would have been alone no well just been me and schneider and all the tech gadgets yeah it could happen so landmark live again let’s go back to shall we go to another one of the text messages about the uh let’s do that private club slash speak easy slash whatever we’re going to call it i would like to hear more okay so we last left them yes thank you brian the husband was being inquisitive beyonce fiance sorry brian the fiance was being inquisitive yes the situation yeah in the secret store yes so we’re back inside the secret store to continue the story yes and so the guy was being a real prick and he got real defensive and and you’re like this oh sorry my phone died because there was a long pause between me so so anyway he was like you have to you have to have a membership to even step foot in there oh wow brian asked oh okay so if we want to become members how can we do that that’s a very logical question that’s a very logical question yes and the store owner said well i picked the members i have a waiting list anyway boom and we can leave off there if you’d like and we’ll we’ll come back to that wow we may have to review that one before we pick up yeah yeah um i wanted to mention we had another question from a friend of the show isaac okay he’d like to know a little bit about how often the show is and it’s basically whenever we want to yeah we’re kind of hit and miss isaac whenever we got a hot topic yep we uh we do a show yeah but it’s always on it’s almost always on thursdays yes yes right right and so you should probably make sure you like the platte county landmark facebook page right and uh you know stay in touch right hey um elected member someone goes elected membership of course i think that’s i would say there are probably some elected members if i mean i don’t know if you were following my music video i was maybe picking up a hint that there might be at least one elected member who may have spent some time there yeah okay yeah spent some time in a couple different places that night well yeah so that was probably the first one as i understand what i’ve heard an early stop in the evening I’m going to ask isaac isaac are you if you’re still watching isaac are you related to uh rory who um i think rory recently passed but I’m just might be the only other guy by that last name i’ve ever known so anyway uh so talk to me again about you did some other birthday research did you not or uh have you run through all your breaks i think i blew it’s funny i felt like i had more than that but but uh did somebody lose something no okay i felt like i had more than that but i don’t but i do have another story if you’re interested okay i think i’ve got a problem with my mic or something oh well we’ll find out real quick um so i actually found that i was give me one second here i was unbeknownst to me i found myself in a dry county last week out of nowhere i’ve never been in one before to my knowledge and so it was really odd uh because i holed up in the place i got in my hotel and I’m trying to look i got i got another one i’ve done i got into my hotel and i’ll be danged if i started going around trying to find you know i want to grab a drink somewhere it’s like none of these restaurants had any alcohol or anything and i finally i searched it and i come to find out it’s a dry county oh where was that so that was really annoying because what i found out is that it makes it even worse because if you want a drink and you find out you can’t have one you want one even more and so it was a very it took me about an hour to accept the fact that i was not going to have a drink that night which was fine i lived you know yeah yeah and I’m not a big boozer no like some people no no you aren’t none of us are except camber oh we were going to talk about camler oh we can get to that too our old buddy uh chris cameler and uh i’ve still got a problem with this but uh I’m going to pull that out uh schneider unless you think i’ll need it back in um uh yeah uh camler was supposed to be on the show tonight too he was originally supposed to be the one interviewing mary q with us yeah and uh but uh kamler got called away uh the people at uh what is the name of that cable domino table dahmer arena asked cameron to come down and be the substitute public address announcer tonight so he’s down there and i don’t know i don’t know what he’s announcing soccer or it’s docker and he probably should have gotten a hold of me to make sure he knew what he was doing first maybe it’s a home show he’s doing we don’t know you see him standing around a home show check out this faucet [Laughter] so we’ll i have to get him back on at some point ask him how that went but we’ll check his twitter feed out in a little bit okay let’s check if you want to but do you want to read us a little more yeah let’s uh let’s see if i can bring up the exchange now where did we leave off well we left off with uh uh the man’s says he has a waiting list he has a waiting list okay yes okay so he said well i picked the members i have a waiting list anyway exclamation point he told me i needed to come to the front of the store because people didn’t like me looking through that iron gate in the back of the store so brian and again brian is the fiance yes the lady who sent these texts about the alleged uh private club speakeasy whatever we’re going to call it down in downtown parkville so brian kept pressing him and he asked us to leave wow sounds interesting and then it was early evening still light out i thought they were buying drinks hence why i told brian hey look we can go have a drink but it was shady as hell [Laughter] there’s a little bit more do we want to leave out there just finish it man we’re getting you may as well just finish okay you know he wouldn’t let me stay back there long enough to see if there was a bartender but i could have sworn there was the gate in his store looks like a piece of decor but it’s not it caught me by surprise the end i i gotta say they’re for that kind of money there better be a bartender they’re gonna be a fancy gate no kidding there better be some extra stuff in the back back too yeah yeah that was interesting uh interesting a little unsolicited uh information about the alleged uh secret club you know i there’s so many things that i want to say but who knows maybe i want to join someday so maybe i should just keep my mouth shut yeah yeah you might so well that’s pretty pricey club though i mean we’re not really that pricey you know that’s we’re not that high no we don’t we’re more of a doe no we’re like natty light kind of guys more pretty much pretty much that that’s a that’s a really interesting story the the uh honestly after listening to that i kind of want to meet brian yeah because i want the guy i want to find out what he’s like i’ll bet he’s fun i bet he is too and again these are these are legit people respected their work in respected fields uh respected professionals so there you go it was a nice little update on celebrities good I’m glad that we had that update i think that uh it’s important for people to know what’s going on in their public whether it’s legal or not yeah well i guess licensed or legal or permitted issued whatever i mean we just don’t know i i gotta say again and i don’t expect you to answer this because you’ve answered it off the air and it’s probably better to just to just keep it on the download but i am perplexed that people would want but again it goes back to being i you know i’ll just say it it goes back to being in third grade i mean you know you’ve got you’ve got the you’ve got this click over here you’ve got this click over here and you’ve got this click in the secret store it doesn’t matter how old you are whether you’re five or fifty or sixty or god knows you know that that uh you know you wanna be a part of the club i guess no matter how ridiculous it is that’s people that have money to burn apparently yeah you know good for them you got money to burn congratulations I’m proud of you for having that much money and hey if that’s what they want to do we just you know if it’s all legal and good it’s all legal and good yeah kind of makes me want to go investigate in johnson county now too there’s got to be some of that crap going on out there yeah we don’t know we’re just we’re just just reporting the news as we have learned it that and let me say again a one of the tv stations uh knows about it and has reached out to me and basically has the same information that i have so there you go i mean i think this particular story is more legit than some of the things i’ve seen on the news the last 12 months right so i i that’s what i like about about doing this show is um it gives me an outlet to to be real okay well we’ve got another comment and this is good the correct term these days is bitcoin to melt to not money to like burn i like it and uh isaac pasley does not know a rory in his family so uh that’s that’s what about brad pasley one of my favorite country singers actually that’s good tunes so what are you you’ve been following uh chris campbell’s twitter oh yeah yeah yeah let’s do that real quick before my phone dies uh let me see here yeah he he’s interesting um he has a lot of followers now we’re not sure if he bought them or how he acknowledged yeah no I’m kidding yeah but um uh let me see we got to find is it the fake ned these days it is the fake news fake net okay so he likes to talk he likes to tell stories about himself he likes to pardon me for doing this schneider he likes to um i just got to get situated you know look i got I’m being totally honest on my 50th birthday i don’t like these chairs but no but they make you don’t like it because i have the foot rest and you don’t i don’t even know if it’s the footrest it might be yeah probably it probably is because it’s funny because you’re a little bit shorter than i am and and yet you get the foot resting it I’m uncomfortable and I’m tall I’m like well when i buy the chairs i get the foot right i agree if you start buying the chairs you can get a photo yeah the footrest is more of a status symbol oh you paid 500 bucks for that that’s great that’s great so cambodia likes to tell stories about himself he loves to to brag about his son the baseball player which is great he’s a good baseball player at his high school yeah um and that’s great he was doing that last night he was in fact you and i were texting at that same moment where we’re getting set up for this show and he’s like my son you know has hit 40 home runs already or whatever whatever it was you know so uh but it’s fun to go through his through his uh tweets because like he does he’ll get into story mode um he does get in the story mode yeah yeah you’ve been you keep up on his twitter feed more than i do because uh when i first learned he had uh coveted i mentioned it to you and he said oh yeah he’s been tweeting about it like every three minutes i i had didn’t had no knowledge he was tweeting about it so uh kudos to you for following uh chris cameron’s twitter feed thank you and i think the only reason that that that it happens is because i keep blocking him and so every time i block him no I’m kidding i don’t block him I’m kidding I’m kidding but i don’t understand the algorithms so i don’t need like like i i do try to block ads and stuff that are so annoying and then suddenly I’m getting camera all the time so i don’t all camera all the time definitely it’s like his own show you know good stuff i couldn’t tell if he had if he had gone uh to the game today as well or not no he just took he just he just took a picture of the comet’s field and by the way uh kudos to the kansas city comments they were in the second round of of the playoffs you being a big soccer guy you would know that i do know that i do know that we are we are good uh and your daughter coached by prominent soccer coach ron shiber back in the day back in the day but see nowadays she is trained by the head coach of the kansas city comets uh dagmar wood or who’s the young yes jack head coach of the kansas city commons yes but anyway camera click candler posted a picture of the game and said i found the game you guys and i found the proud that he found the right place oh good job gambler and uh and that’s about all he’s saying so far and uh it’s gonna be interesting to see if he understands what what he’s doing yeah well i can’t wait to get the reviews yeah it’ll be cool and camera he does uh he does some park university sports and some other things too so uh and one thing you can say about cameron the man love his baseball yes he does love his baseball he wrote a book about it yeah and uh and that’s why he gets so excited when his son does good things at baseball i know i get that i totally agree with that and understand that and let’s be honest too you got mentioned in that book i didn’t yeah well yeah because you know and deservedly so really i mean i don’t think he played a role you know i was i had like a one one paragraph mentioned so did you did you put out 500 bucks for to get something over here no but by golly i would have uh I’m gonna dig in brad i you know you’re my buddy and so i brought you
