"Yourself. This radio 1000 Katie. Okay, this is the gardens Hardy. And, um What I want to do next. I hope I can. How about that? And once I start you all will understand. No doubt if you have been watching any of the media lightly. You have heard of the Passing of BJ Wexler. And reading from the Channel nine tribute. If you've ever had a free Saturday night in Oklahoma, there's a good chance you spend it with O E T A S. B. J. Wexler His classic movies and the iconic bucket of popcorn. Born and raised in Buffalo, New York, Wexler joined Oklahoma's PBS affiliate in the early eighties debut Ng the O E T a movie club in 1988. Yes, that is all true. And that is why Oklahoma loves him. But prior to this There's the rest of the story and the reason BJ Wexler came to Oklahoma. Way back and the Early eighties was because he was the program director of I am 1000 Katie. Okay, Really? And he was here with Bob Riggins. And Jerry Bonin, Jerry Bonin. And Bob. Oh and Carol Carol are known cram prior. All of those people. And it was when Katie okay was part of in silk. Oh, broadcasting. And he ladies and gentlemen. Is the reason there is a garden show. He is or was the reason there was a home repair show. With B. J Did it at first with Henry Benedict and then Gary Stearman. And all those people the reason that here's the part I hope I get through then I have been here for 35 plus years is because BJ Wexler Was kind enough to give her Uh, 20 28 29 year old girl. Who had never had a question broadcasting And opportunity. And he, um at first That may do Countdown to kickoff. I believe And then I auditioned along with Pam Prior, Pam Prior got the full time job. This is pre Carol Arnold. And I got the Sunday night slot from then 7 to 10 now 7 to 9. S o. I o my whole Broadcasting career to be Jay Wexler. And, uh, After he left here. He went to K K a. N G. Yes, and did that fresh air that beautiful music radio, any hand that velvety voice and all that and You have no idea every once in a while, he would call me and say when I like what you did here, and I didn't you know, And you should do this better. So between Jerry Bonin, BJ Wexler, Mike McCarville. And tow others there. The ones that got me started, but he was the genius. He brought the whole concept of home and garden to talk radio on Saturday mornings, and it used to be really early. Jamie. I'm somebody used to be 88 and time and I would get to sub for Gary Stearman every once in a while with Henry Benedict and T and J. Greece and Marble would have these long commercials. And it was a struggle to get through the words TMJ greasy. But BJ Wexler was as everyone else has said a very Talented, very kind person. And Bob Allen. Saw the talent in B. J. Wexler and brought him on at O E. T. A And they came up with the concept. Of the movie club and the car popcorn and all of that, and Jamie, you were talking about how how every Friday and Saturday night. You enjoyed b J. Oh, yeah. I mean, I mean, I was I was religiously watched it and I was saying if I did I find this Friday night I caught it like in the middle of my Oh, good. I'll make sure to watch it the next The fact that they repeated the same movie, which was at the time was a broadcast. No, no. Yes. No, I loved it. It's what really drew people and you know you cannot go anywhere in this state. Did not have someone say. You know, B j Wickes or what's he really like? I'd say just like he is on the year. Yes. Yeah, right. So under way in on this. The only team movie club what they were doing predated Turner Classic movies. Yes, by Good five years. One of my favorite things that from that show their memories was when you brought in Joe living They showed West Side story. Joe Levine was the guest host and when they when they would break Jolin would tell stories about production about, Golding said. That was the first major Piece that he did as a young composer when a young young conductor And he said, And you know what? I was so naive. I thought I could do it. And VOCs West Side story is one of the hardest things that composer can conduct it is it is as intense as most art and so Reddick and erratic tempos and yes, And then he told a great story that in the West Side story, the cool, which is when in the movie it's after After the killings, and they're in hiding in the garage. In the play. It actually occurs before that the dance but in the movie it occurs after after the death. That piece. Musically is a few as in Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and it's the orchestra is Pat. The melody is being passed from section section from the flutes to the Violence to the horns to the You know, back around. And as S. Oh, my my mind was blown because this was pre Internet movie database. This was at the beginning of the Internet. So on Lee people who were in academics knew through the breakdown of this and BJ part Golovin and he talked about that. And my little 30 old mine was blown. Well, let me rot in that Hochman to talk about movies he brought in so many people and the O E T. A movie club really set a national president of and Uh, Just you know. How do you? How do you think someone that gave you such a big part of your life? So May he rest in peace with his beautiful wife, and that he met here in Oklahoma City and married her and To all of those people that have wished me Oh, Condolences and all that. Thank you very much of He Was such a significant part of my life. And those were the days I guess so. Plant of the week. The ultra Botanica plant of the week broadleaf evergreen with over leaves. Insignificant flowers. That is a key clue. Yeah, I think because the over Lee's would make you go a lot of different directions. Yeah, no, actually, because it's using what a res you think. Oh, maybe it has flowers like winter Reese. She's for the greenery. The greenery. Printers use for winter. Okay, so I would have guessed if I hadn't known about the flowers being insignificant. I would have guessed. I dare say it Magnolia exact because you made me that beautiful reef. But it's no but the magnolia flowers are very showy. Very significant. Right. Granted. Flora species. Name means big flower. So so, yeah, So it's obviously not obviously not make Noah get with over police. What else has over leaves? I'll have to think about this thistles, The Garden Party and thank you all. You're listening to 1000 Katie. Okay. For half a century, The world has sought.

Talking Tech
How do you feel about living in an "Amazon" Home?
"Talking tech is brought to you in part by northwestern. University offered in partnership with north Western's Feinberg school of medicine. The program prepares students for emerging opportunities across the healthcare spectrum. Details are at SPS dot northwestern dot EDU slash informatics. I'm Jefferson Graham with USA listening to talking tech the weekend edition where we look back at one big story from the week and try to make a little sense out of it this week Amazon did a lot of things you probably heard all about New York in backing out. But we're not going to talk about that. We're gonna talk about Amazon acquiring another startup the maker of the beloved tech product Eero, which is a mesh router that improves dead WI fi spots in the home and two that you might have said so I mean like sure is just another purchase by the world's largest online retailer. But more importantly, it's an indication of how Amazon wants to go further than just. Making our home smart. It wants to turn our dwellings into the Amazon home think about that for a minute. Your guests are greeted at the door with the video doorbell from ring accompany Amazon bought in two thousand eighteen your guests enter living room, where an Amazon echo speaker is playing music as it awaits voice commands, you all head to the kitchen where an Amazon microwave is heating up dinner made from food bought it whole foods, of course. Right. As you turn down the volume on the Amazon fire TV edition television. You ask Alexa to dim the smart lights using the one sparked product in the home not owned by Amazon yet the Hugh system by Phillips of Amsterdam and the WI fi now the guts of the system without which none of the other products could operate is being controlled by the latest device bought by Amazon, the euro, are you comfortable with Amazon controlling so much of your home. Well on Twitter. Her this week a lot of people weren't at. Rick Williams, noted that it was terrible news as Eero was going to quote, one of the biggest data suckers out there, unquote. At Steve Riggins said it's terrible news for his privacy, concerns. Quote. I don't let Alexa in my house for those reasons. And now, you're back doored me unquote, Amazon and Eero downplayed the privacy issues saying that the mesh router doesn't share wifi information. But Amazon as euro does now will soon know how you use your WI fi whether that's on computer or mobile drive, a lot of techies like myself loved Eero because it solve an important problem. Helping to wipe out spotty wifi service across the home. The euro was the first such product in a category soon emulated by Google net gear links us and others. A three pack of the Eero for multiple rooms sells for five hundred bucks. Google undercut it in its version two two hundred and fifty dollars. Now, Google only has two. Smart home products. It's euro like Google system and the nest thermostat while apple doesn't market any under its brand name. Neither apple nor Google have been as aggressive enquiring smart home products and win a company like Amazon has dibs more products in your house. That means rival once can't be easily used once you're all in on Alexa, is there room for Google home hubs video speaker, which operates on the Google assistant. I don't think so because you can't use both interchangeably Amazon famously missed out on smartphones by trying to get into the market too late after apple and Google it has since built a giant device business with the readers, tablets connected. Speakers security cameras and now smart home products. A recent visit to one of the Amazon bookstores in Los Angeles shows just how aggressive Amazon is getting in this category with a large selection of store devoted to smart. Home made easy the cost of entry based on what what I saw on display. A good. Thousand dollars. Now, add the price of euro, which Amazon could drastically lower from its current five hundred dollar price tag. Because after all the ring after Amazon bought it's saw its price slashed in half from two hundred bucks to one hundred bucks. Great news for consumers. But at what cost talking tech listeners, I want to hear from you. Let me hear your thoughts on Twitter, I'm at Jefferson Graham, thanks for listening to the show.
