Frank Murphy and Kathryn Frady are dressed for the heat. The central air conditioning unit at Frank’s house broke down on Memorial Day. His HVAC system is about 24 years old.
At first, Frank thought the house was warm because of the brighter sunlight since several trees were removed. Kathryn is sitting on an ice-pack to stay a little cooler. Frank left some bourbon on her side of the table.
Frank noticed poison ivy around the air conditioning unit. He decided to put on a long-sleeve shirt and remove it before the repairman arrived. After sweating through his clothes, he took a shower using dishwashing liquid to cut through any poison ivy oil.
The repairman needed to reset the emergency cut-off switch but could not find it at first. Eventually he located it under the screened porch. The repairman asked Frank to remove the spiderwebs under the porch.
The repairman said he would not touch the cut-off switch. He said it was a model that was pulled from the market in the 1980s because it was a fire hazard. Rather than only have the switch rewired, Frank decided to replace the HVAC system.
Marble City Opera will produce the stage premiere of The Copper Queen on June 2, 3, and 4. Kathryn Frady plays the role of Julia Lowell, whose ghost is said to haunt the Copper Queen hotel. Tickets are on sale at https://www.marblecityopera.com/tickets
The HVAC salesman sat at the same table used for the podcast. When Frank offered him a tissue, he had to explain why he kept tissues under the table for Kathryn. As they talked, the salesman remembered hearing Frank talk on the radio about being cheap.
Frank and Kathryn will be seen on East Tennessee PBS hosting pledge breaks during the broadcasts of Brit Floyd Space & Time - Live in Amsterdam on Saturday, June 4 at 9:00 p.m. and Thursday, June 9 at 9:30 p.m. Frank was also asked to record a voice-over for the pledge breaks during Straight No Chaser: The 25th Anniversary Celebration on June 9 at 8:00 p.m. and during The Doo Wop Project on June 4 at 7:30 p.m.
