The Waters Wake Up Call with Mike Waters · Thu Jan 26, 2023
Five things you didn't know you needed to hear.
With Mike Waters.
Just in case you're still on your New Year's resolution to become healthier.
Number one, congratulations.
You've almost made it a month.
And I was just reading about five nutrition myths.
Doctors are just sick of hearing.
Like myth number one, fresh fruit is healthier than frozen.
Sometimes the canned stuff has added sugar.
A lot of that stuff has added sugar.
But in general, canned, frozen, dried fruit have all the same nutrients as fresh fruit, and it's cheaper.
Plant-based milk is way healthier than cow's milk, another myth.
It does have fewer calories and less fat, but cow's milk has more than twice the protein.
So some of the plant-based versions also have added salt and sugar, so be careful, always look at the labels.
Myth number three, never give a toddler peanuts.
We used to think eating them too early in life gave kids allergies, but now experts think it's the exact opposite.
Feeding them stuff with peanuts in it might help them avoid allergies.
So keep that in mind.
Number four, it's really hard for vegetarians to get enough protein.
You know, as long as you eat a mix of veggies, it's easier than most people think.
Nuts, grains, beans all have lots of protein.
And myth number five, basic nutritional advice changes constantly.
The basic advice has not actually changed much since the fifties.
Don't eat too much and try to eat more plants than meat.
That's what you need to know.
Let's talk about this female shoplifter.
Arrested for battery.
You know what she was hitting people with?
Slim gyms.
That's right, the beef jerky.
This woman tried to steal slim gyms from a convenience store.
Guess where?
That's right, Florida.
This was just last Monday, and when the female clerk confronted her,
She attacked the clerk with the slim gyms and the thief was arrested.
The clerk was in hurt and battery and theft and all of that.
Some people are dopes.
I don't know if you've noticed that or not, but it's so true.
You gotta listen to this.
During last night's Duquesne, Loyola Chicago College basketball game, an Uber Eats delivery guy walked onto the court.
That's right, Uber Eats delivery guy walks onto the court in the middle of the game with a food order.
During a play what a
dope listen.
We've got an official's time out somebody came on the floor uber eats delivery or something there is carrying some McDonald's Maybe was he gonna deliver the McDonald's to somebody on the court?
That's an uber eats sticker.
Let's see if we can see this now This is gonna be the turnover in
there.
There he is.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, this guy's actually who's he delivering it to?
the ref the ref said later give it to me later not now
not now of course you know he's probably ordering food for the break or or uh maybe the game was almost over i don't know didn't anybody see that and go hey uh you know i wouldn't go into the court right now with mcdonald's let's talk about willy nelson's 90th birthday concert
You know, Willie is just one of those musicians who transcends all genres of music, right?
I mean, Willie's cool no matter what.
And have you seen the lineup for Willie Nelson's 90th birthday concert?
It's gonna be a two-night event.
Hollywood Bowl, and just a side note, Friends of Mine actually got some tickets to this thing.
Yeah, and there's gonna be, I mean, there are already, you know, tons of people on the bill with more being added every day, and let's check it out.
Here.
Here's some of the lineup for
you.
The DeFranco family?
I don't know if they're even performing anymore.
All right.
Finally, I gotta tell you about the new sponsor.
for this weekend's AFC and NFC championship games.
And here's a new sponsor to the show, Red Lull.
These are low energy
drinks.
Come on, ref, that was
holding.
Playoffs in Super Bowl.
Touchdown!
He gets so riled up.
That's why I give him cans of Red Lull.
Red Lull looks a lot like his favorite energy drink, but Red Lull contains Seco Barbatol, a sleeping medicine that slowly mellows my jacked-up football fanatic, and before too long, he falls asleep in his lounge chair.
Don't think it's mean.
He wakes up during the fourth quarter, but for about an hour and a half, I get some peace and quiet.
Look for Red Lull at your nearest pharmacy.
If you need to calm down a little, I think people need Red Lull more than Red Bull.
But anyway, I think that's five things.
What the hell were those things?
Five things you didn't know you needed to hear.
This is the water's wake-up call.
Thank you.
I needed to hear that.
