Hey, it's Waters from the Waters Wake Up Call.

This morning, throwback Thursday, we were talking about discontinued items we'd love to bring back.

Annie Green Springs Peach Creek Wine.

Annie's Peach Creek Wine.

Annie Green Springs Peach Creek Wine.

I think they don't make that anymore, because it's really hard to remember.

Say it one more time.

Annie Green Springs Peach Creek

Wine.

Was it a cheap wine?

Yeah.

Yeah, we drank Boone's Farm.

That was the other one.

Maybe we can find an old bottle somewhere.

Oh, there you go.

Because, you know, maybe

It's better wine as it ages.

And maybe it'll be better than Moons Farm even.

Oh.

Dare to dream, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, you know, if you could find some, you could have some giffy pop with that wine.

Giffy pop and Annie's something, something, something wine.

Yeah.

Pop a cork and pop a corn.

Hey, yeah.

Pop cork, popcorn.

Wine, popcorn.

I think I've come up with something.

How did Orville Redenbacher not think of that?

Yeah, they don't make giffy pop.

We

were stupid in those days.

It's always fun living in ignorance.

That's why I haven't learned all that I can learn throughout my life so far.

Ignorance is the bliss.

It's a cliche because it's true.

shooting those little cap guns off.

What were we thinking?

How did an adult not come out and go, what are you doing?

No, they took a 7-Eleven to buy

more caps.

You're out of ammunition?

Well, let's get in the car.

How politically incorrect did I just sound?

Well,

I

pride

myself on

politically incorrect.

We're all politically incorrect these days.

There are so many, there are so many topics that are politically correct or incorrect.

You're swinging one way on some with your opinion and striking the others as politically incorrect and vice versa and it all gets messy and we all don't agree on everything and then everybody gets ticked off.

There you go, my explanation for 2023.

I think

you're right.

Hey, Rock and Rosa,

how are you today?

Good, we were listening to the radio.

Well, God bless you for that.

The movie world of history.

Oh, history of the world?

History of

the

world, yes.

And

they're

coming out with a new one.

Well, actually, Rock and Rosa, it's a TV series.

It's got like six episodes.

The first two episodes are up as we speak on Hulu.

Yeah,

I

know.

We're so excited.

We love the movie.

It was great.

It's good to be the king.

It's good.

Good to be the king.

Yes, it is.

There's quite a few things I miss of the 80s.

Like?

Like big hair, scrunchies, furbies.

What was the last thing you said?

Furbies.

Oh, furbies.

Yes, they were awesome when I was a kid.

I

remember thinking it was a disease first, and then I found out it was a toy, because my sister got furbies, and I was like, I stayed away from her for a month.

I didn't want to catch furbies.

Oh, wow.

Hey, is this Mrs. Water?

What do you do, wife?

I thought so.

That would have been weird if you weren't.

It would have been really weird if I wasn't.

I know, I know.

How are you doing?

I'm doing all right.

Do you remember anything from your youth that you remember just loving and now it can be nowhere to be found?

It just disappeared on you.

Candy cigarettes.

Candy cigarettes.

You know, I did have some at one point, but I don't see them.

You know, maybe Jeff Winfield thought they were actually cigarettes and lit them.

I don't know.

I don't see them now.

Well, that's probably why you started smoking as an adult.

Probably is.

A sinful, sinful candy.

That's probably why they don't make them anymore, Mrs. Waters.

Probably.

That's probably why.

I'm saying.

Good morning, Mr. Waters.

How are you this morning?

I am good.

And you, Hawaiian?

Not bad.

Good!

That's what it's all about on this, uh, Snow's Back Throwback Thursday.

What do you remember when you were a kid and they don't have them anymore?

Yeah,

lawn darts or jarts, the problem with them.

I think it's kind of like anything.

Dumb people ruin it for us smart people.

True.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, see that's the problem.

It was you dumb people Hawaii Hawaiian.

That's the problem No, I know I know

and

No, you don't.

You think you're indestructible when you're a kid, and especially the way parents were back then.

They didn't really monitor us when we were outside.

We all just kind of did whatever we wanted to do, and I'm sure some kids just, and I'm sure there are tragic stories behind the fact that we can't find those, can't buy those anymore.

Probably, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, but they were fun.

They were lots of fun.

Do

they still take the one where you put it to your ankle and you like, stomp over it?

Like it goes around sort of like a hoo-hoo, but it's stuck to

your ankle.

Ooh.

Oh, I know what you're talking about.

Let's see.

I'm gonna Google something.

Let's see.

Jump rope around your ankle.

That's what I'll Google and see what it says.

Okay.

Yeah.

Jump rope around.

Ooh.

I start putting jump rope, A-R, and boom.

It appears around ankle.

Okay.

Ankle jump rope.

Okay, so then you'll have it.

Yeah, yeah.

At Walmart, they call it the ankle skip toy, which is dumb.

But yeah, it's the same thing.

It's the same thing.

Okay.

So go get one, Hawaiian.

That'd be fun to do in the snow.

Yeah, that'd be fun to watch me try and do that at my

age.

Yeah, well, you know, and especially when the snow is higher up than your ankle, I think that would make it extra entertaining.

I'm going

pretty good there, Farmer Dave.

How you doing?

Pretty good, pretty good.

I've got a couple deals for you there.

Okie

doke.

Do you remember when they had, uh, check out people at Walmart?

I do remember that.

In fact, they still do have check out people at Walmart.

It's us.

Exactly.

Why can't we have real people again?

You know, talk once in a while.

I know.

You know, just robots going in and out of the

store and have

no money.

You rarely find employees around the store so you can ask where something is.

You just don't see people anymore.

Like the old days.

yeah

I never hear that anymore people are becoming discontinued products how scary is that

pretty bad

yes pretty bad but that's a state of things AI is taken over man that artificial intelligence now they're talking about AI taking over

DJs

Yeah, I wouldn't think so.

They can't give it the personal touch like we can.

No.

They can't talk to us.

Who was even thinking about that?
