Frank Murphy offers Kathryn Frady a frozen wine slushie, once it thaws enough to pour. He bought the slushie mix during the first episode he recorded with Kathryn about a year ago. You can watch that episode here: https://youtu.be/qZDy2zWnEBw
It’s still hot in the Podcast Ponderosa. The HVAC system will be replaced soon. Frank finds it difficult to use his phone for calls or podcasts while he is doing yard work. Frank’s wife Jere will soon return with their grandchildren Timmy and Charlie. After a week, they will leave and Artie Rocket will arrive.
Frank bought a pole saw but hasn’t used it yet. He has been digging up weeds and tending to his fig plants. While digging up rocks and roots, he made an unusual discovery. His shovel hit something about a foot deep.
After some effort, he excavated a rectangular bath mat or similar piece of carpet. He wonders why it was buried instead of being washed or thrown into the garbage. Kathryn is suspicious. Frank asked neighbor Nancy if anyone on their street had ever gone missing. Nancy thinks it might have been from a kids’ clubhouse in the woods.
Frank threw away the rug. Kathryn thinks it should have been tested for evidence. Frank tells about the divorced couple who sold the house to him. Kathryn wants to turn this show into a murder podcast.
Frank serves the wine slushie in celebration of Kathryn’s successful performances in The Copper Queen. If you missed it, you can still buy a streaming video ticket at https://www.marblecityopera.com/tickets
Kathryn did some drywall repair at her house. Frank didn’t know she was so handy. He imagined her doing the work while she was sick at home. Frank tells Kathryn how he got a dirty look from half a block away for coughing on a street downtown.
When the grandchildren are visiting, Frank teaches them how to get out of the pool. Last year, Artie played a Wii dance video game in silence while Frank did his radio show from the kitchen. He wonders if he could ask neighbor Nancy to invite the kids to try out her son’s new disc golf game in the yard.
Frank suggests that the kids could shoot baskets in the driveway. Kathryn thinks he will need to keep the door open to watch them in case the basketball rolls away. Frank thinks they will be fine.
Kathryn asks if Frank’s kids had curfews when they were teenagers. Frank doesn’t recall them ever wanting to stay out late. One time Frank Jr. had high school swim team practice on a Tuesday night at the same time as Frank’s improv show and Jere’s dress rehearsal with the Knoxville Choral Society. Frank asked another swim team dad to give Frank Jr. a ride after practice to Patrick Sullivan’s Saloon in the Old City.
