Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters Wake Up Call.
Man, I was busy this morning.
That's the perfect Monday for me.
We were talking about things people are 100% brainwashed into believing they need.
Like, for instance...
It's not a something that I think everybody needs.
Maybe you don't need it.
Okay.
Privagen.
Now, brain medicine.
Oh, privagen.
Maybe it'll work.
It's very expensive.
I haven't even checked it out.
So, have you ever tried it?
No, I have not tried it.
Yeah a lot of that memory stuff and brain stuff people people think they need and here's you know what the brilliance behind that is?
I have no idea.
Before you take it you're an idiot so you'll spend a million dollars for it and then you get it and that's the last you'll ever buy because as soon as you take some you're smart enough and think what the hell was I thinking?
Previgin or Ginkgo Biloba?
Remember Ginkgo
Biloba?
Oh yes, yes I remember saying that on the shelf
too.
Yeah.
Well, it's really
expensive because you'll only get people to buy it once before they smarten up and think, no,
I don't need this crap.
What am I doing?
With the happiest music.
some of the music they're using it makes you so happy I bet the pill does that and and it takes away all your pain and you're running and jumping and and singing in the street so either they use that stuff or they use stuff that was popular when we were growing up like ozempic using oh it's magic you know that one or we got the beat Fleawood mag go your own way yeah nostalgia is something that really turns your brain on so that's used a lot with with
brainwash vertizing.
That's why I play the music that I play so I can brainwash people.
Not really, of course,
but...
Oh, no, it's crazy Jerry my worst nightmare especially on a Monday Special right yes special Yeah, so what's up there crazy man?
I'm brainwashed and having the biggest flashlights.
That's what mine is
your brain washed into having the biggest bestest brightest flashlight
Yes, I gotta have it.
I'm scared of the dark.
I don't know.
I don't think it has anything to do with the dark.
I think it's the fact that maybe you yourself ain't that bright.
That's why you need the biggest and the brightest flashlight you see.
Yeah, bigger, the better, the brighter.
Yes, I think you need a flashlight and I think you need ginkgo biloba.
Okay, first of all, I have to respectfully disagree with you.
I
do need another Marvel movie.
Yeah, why?
What could they give you that they haven't given you already?
Everything.
I love the Marvel movie.
Everything, though?
Are you saying that the ones have not delivered yet?
That's why they still have everything to offer?
It's
like
a
drug.
You need more.
Yeah, it is a drug.
It is.
But
the thing that they brainwashed you was those electric cars.
I don't think we need those.
Electric cars?
Yeah,
why don't you think we need electric cars?
Okay, coming from a true Marvel fan We don't need the electric cars Maybe if they made a Marvel movie where the Hulk and Captain America and Iron Man and the rest of them were driving electric cars You would be brainwashed right into running out and buying one.
I'll bet you would
Was that a laugh?
Or was that, are you making fun of me?
Because I'm making fun of you.
Let me make that perfectly clear.
Hey, I'm used to it.
I have no doubt, because you're a Marvel fan.
Yes, I am.
Thank you, Mr. Wadi.
Fishing poles and equipment and lures and you name it.
My husband and his brother, how many poles, how many lures, how many tackle boxes.
I mean, I have two poles.
I go out there.
Simples have corals.
I throw them in the water.
I catch fish and I'm happy and not frustrating.
They have all this stuff.
They're rooting through and it's everywhere and they got into this special one and that special one because it's this temperature again, the water temperature.
You have to get it under the tree and under it.
I'm like just throw it in the water.
You'll catch the whole
panel.
Sure, you will catch something, but you need to, if you think that, you know, with only two poles, you're gonna catch a better quality fish.
See, that's where you're wrong.
You are gonna pick a very, very bad, scrawny quality fish that's gonna taste like, I don't know, something you found behind the fridge when you were cleaning.
I have pictures that prove differently.
Really, I don't know nothing about no fishing.
I don't even have one rod.
I'd probably borrow a rod and just I'd toss it in the water.
And then I'd think, oh, I probably should have held on to the rod part, but I'd throw it all into the water.
And then I'd think, uh-oh.
Then you watch as a fish takes your bait, takes the pole off into the middle of the lake.
Right.
Right, and at first I was jumping up and down.
See, look, the fish loved mine, and I thought that's how you won.
Is that true that we don't need milk after adolescence?
Not that I've noticed, I guess.
Have you ever seen any animal stuck on another animal past adolescence?
No, I have not.
Because they say after you're like eight years old or something you've got plenty of calcium in your body and you get it from the food and stuff.
But the milk industry's got to sell the milk.
and they wouldn't sell it if they didn't push it, you know?
Well, there's one thing I'd like to add real quick.
Iowa dairy farmers, the opinions you sometimes hear on the water's wake-up call are not necessarily those of Mike Waters.
Okay, I just had to say
that.
Okay, there's something like that.
But yeah, we're the only mammal that drinks milk past adolescence, though.
It's kind of wild,
isn't it?
It is, it is.
I've never really thought of that, but I'll have to check into that.
I'm curious about that now.
There
you go.
Yeah.
All right.
I
got a lot of stuff like that.
I got nothing but time to think.
Well, thank God you're using your brain, my man.
Thank
God.
Yeah, have you heard anything like about the thigh masters and those weights with the velcros that people used to wear and all that kind of stuff?
Yeah, in fact I was talking about thigh masters and shake weights and I even went back to like Susan Powder and Stop the Insanity, that stuff.
I was watching an episode of Marry Your Children and Marcy and I were sitting on the couch using one of them thigh masters.
That was so big for a while, just so big.
Did they ever work?
I'll bet they didn't.
I'm sure it was just some... You know, Suzanne Summers quit Threes Company so early, she didn't have any money, so I think it was a big cash grab for Suzanne Summers.
That's what I think.
Yeah, I think you could probably do a whole thing on all those exercise products from back in the 80s that...
People were trying to use
Mr. Waters, DJ Extraordinaire.
I wasn't going to call till tomorrow, but you baited me with this topic, so I couldn't resist.
I brainwashed you into calling me.
All right.
I mean, there's a song, Madonna's Things, about a materialistic girl and this materialistic guy.
But, you know,
Materials are basically suffering from an identity crisis.
Is that it?
Is that your psychological analysis of what's going on?
Yeah.
I need this to be, you know.
Right.
I need to fit in.
Yeah.
That's basically it.
I don't know.
As soon as people stop using it, you stop using it because if everybody else doesn't want it, you don't want it.
It's kind of like the conform and be popular brainwashing tactic.
Yeah.
The sneakers and school, you know, everybody had to have the Nike's type deal.
Right, the Air Jordans or whatever.
Do you remember back in the days where we all thought, I think we need a pet that we don't have to feed or walk or really do anything with?
The pet rock.
Well, yeah, they were sitting around the boardroom and some guy said, you know, if you mark it right, we can sell the general public rocks.
and they could call it a pet.
And they did successfully market that.
The guy, I can't remember his full name, his last name was Dahl, but apparently he quit his job after that, became successful, and then he moved to some beach and bought a bar.
They
get big and disappear, yeah.
Disappear, yeah, go to some island and have a bar on the beach.
Pursuit of happiness, you aim at what you want, your goal.
Exactly,
exactly.
It's not everybody can be a top-flight DJ like yourself.
I mean come on now.
Oh woody you're you're crazy Weekday mornings 5 30 to
10
