Frank & Friends Show 0054

Frank Murphy’s friend Azsha White is filling in for Kathryn Frady again today. Kathryn is rehearsing for The Copper Queen, which opens Thursday. 

Azsha and her husband like to go camping at Watts Bar Lake. Coincidentally, a blood test said she has uranium in her blood. She recently had treatment for Lyme disease. 

Frank’s wife Jere received a gift bag from two students at the school where she works. The bag contains several Korean treats. It turns out that Azsha knows the kids who gave Jere the gift. Frank and Azsha go through the bag and sample the seaweed, crackers, and cookies. 

Frank and Azsha both have been taking extra vitamins and zinc to boost their immunity. Frank heard on the news that people who received a smallpox vaccine as kids are probably safe from monkeypox. Frank and his sisters had chickenpox at the same time. He got a shingles vaccine a couple of years ago. 

Frank was a mobile deejay while in college. Some of his gigs were at a girls school in Middleburg, Virginia and at the British Embassy in Washington, DC. The owner of the deejay firm heard Frank on the radio in 1982 and offered him the mobile deejay job. A few years later comedian Patton Oswalt worked for the same deejay company, which used cassettes instead of vinyl or CDs. 

Frank was looking for a bag of salad at the supermarket but the salad had gone bad. He decided to get shredded taco lettuce instead. As Frank was searching for the bag with the latest “sell by” date, a produce clerk started talking to him about the salad that had gone bad. Later the clerk found Frank in the bakery section and showed him the salad bags he was going to throw in the trash. 

When Frank got to the parking lot, a young woman started talking to him about his car. She had the same model of car and was parked next to Frank’s car. Frank was surprised that she would strike up a conversation. They complimented each other’s cars and compared similarities.
