Over the last month or so I have been in the urgent search for cover girl models for the clubs website, as well as a grouping of TV ads to draw more of the none knowing public to the radio show/network. What I have rapidly found is that not all women wearing ink are that radical or rebellous . There was an old kountry music song that had as a title, Don't call him a cowboy, until you see him ride. Likewise, don't prejudge a woman with ink as being wyld either. In fact it'll most likely be some chiquita that is very mainstream and completely shy, and reserved. Just like Lexi here in Evanston . I met her, saw her ink, and thought, " Hey she just might be the kind of honey we need at our bar and grill, as well as doing some on camera work. After many weeks, her guy pal, said, not my woman. I guess it has something to do, with being around us biker types. Then I started seeing ads being flung at me worse than raw manure at a rodeo, for pop ink, gals starting a so called bad girls, alternative agency out of Boise. Came right down to pinning them down, and only, and I'll bet they would have remained had I not brought this up, but just because I spoke of the toe kiss for the teasing of two words TOE and TOW combined gets
that this so called bad girls agency would have stayed in the project. The gal pictured, was and is remarried, has 3 great kids, and yet had the conoles to step up to the batters box and get in the project. Being as she was in prior vocational assignments a nurse, we called her nurse GoodBody, after the character played on HeeHaw. The resemblence is uncanny. Getting back here on course, Erin got into the whole creation of HazzardAyre and to date I can call or text her any time and she and I are great friends. No physical sexual overtones , just great friends. So here was this bunch and I'll say bunch, because if this had been a real model assignment these gals for standing us up, would be banned and black listed from every talent agents candidate list. You don't hold someone up for a month, tell them your in, then back out just on one technicality. Given the fact that, I'm getting married in 4 years, maybe less time, and building a media arm alongside the Knytes, and all, this would have been a great thing to add to their portfolio. Guess what? They'll never do much in the way of any serious modeling, much less feature TV promo advertising. Of course , I should have put in my brain, because there's more bullshit on FB than there is truth, which is why all too many are gun shy of responding to any offer from FB, just as many don't answer ads from CraigsList. Much of it is not real and a scam. Just because she has tattoos and such, or because someone wears boots, Wrangler jeans and a Stetson, don't mean that is truly what they are. Just like the many who wave our flag of Dixie, they say they are rebels, and all, don't mean they truly are. Many have no idea about the true meaning , behind that flag, or what it still stands for today. The same thing goes for some of the foods we eat, you can't really enjoy the meat until you scrape away the cheese . See ya'll on local radio tonight and online Sunday afternoon on www.livestream.com/hazzardayre

Uncle Jessie Duke said it best, when trippin tall cotton look for snakes, or if your looking for water make sure its a well, not a mirage. My Mom used to say, don't put all your eggs in one basket. In all of these, found our new talent agency and go to person was after it all was a fraud. So look some more. I'm getting to the point of just film the trucks and such, and the models will eventually find us, not us find them. Oh well who the hell needed them any way? There is the fact that you only can get pro talent from Hollywood, Nashville or Atlanta, and if your lucky , maybe Seattle , but not Salt Lake City Utah, and absolutely not Boise. I'd have better fishing in Pocatello, than Boise. At least when we cast in Pocatello, SOMEBODY shows up. Not a bunch of promises. It's good Valerie, Ally and all have day jobs. They'll need them. This is a relief on several fronts, since I am determined to focus on our core operations, and mine.
See ya'll on the radio, but I post this, in saying if your in the market for talent don't go to Armada or anything or anyone linked to it. One even said we only had 7 likes to UCSA, really? This proves that wrong,
kinda kicks that story in the head don't it ? Now then if one does a search for Hazzard County Choppers you will find this;
if one goes to Google my Business, you find this;
By now if the little Twitches looked, they didn't look hard enough , now did they? Alrighty then as I said before and I say again, its Yankee stupidity, as we say it God, forgive them Yankees, for they know not what they do. Until later tonight oh and one last they sure as hell did not go to our radio site , did they? In case you might miss it, this is what it looks like :
Maybe some people ought to look closer before they ditch an $11,million dollar contract.

There was a time not that many years ago, in fact during the prelim discussions with Kim Lee, on the Knytes buying KBAR, there, that I was tuned into Zeb's show as I always do in the mid morning when over there. Now the precursor to my rant here is this. Two days before, I read in what was a competing news rag of Cassia County, about a historian and distant kin of a Northern Yankee Army Veteran of the grand war or northern invasion to the southland. Of course I stood up as any good Confederate would and asked, who this guy was and how about me going to the same schools during this guys presentation and tell those students the real history of that conflict, from one of a Confederate view. You could hear the crickets. So that one day, there was a gap in Zeb's show, so I called in and wanted to talk the southern side, as the cry for getting rid of our flag of Dixie was just starting. I got two minutes into what I wanted to say, got cut off, and thus forced to shut up.
Then last week I think it was Thursday last's show that Zeb was saying we all should get involved, get active, voice and bark and howl on issues and policies we feel passionate about. On the issues of Southern heritage and all Zeb and I are light years apart. You have to excuse him, he's a Yankee, and as we say in the south taking from the Bible, Forgive them Yankees for they know not what they do. I will say this too and this was why I think Kim pulled the plug on the sale of KBAR to us. The Knytes , myself, and of course our aviation wing are the real Wolves in amongst the sheep. We do not follow protocol, we do not follw or blindly obey the establishment, we are the real radicals of both the airwaves, as well as the sky, and highway. Have been always will be.
Now to this, like many kountry music entertainers have said it, you can't write, sing about things you really have not lived. The greats , Waylon, Willie and others have lived the events they sing about. It's their attitudes that to be true to your listeners and or audience you have to sing what you live, or it comes across all too phony. In radio Zeb and I have followed each other, mostly he follows us. As well as me, I write a blog, Zeb writes a blog, I go online with my show, Zeb goes online with his show, although I will say that Livestream, that carries ours is much better than that radioloyalty outfit Zeb uses. Yet after 6 years, Zeb knowing us in the Modern Confederacy as we are, I have yet to have Zeb call me and discuss the issue over our flag, the bath room situation in Mississippi and North Carolina. Two states that are in the heart of what I will call the Rebel Dixie belt. I say this to Zeb, instead of just barking about telling, people to get involved with issues and such they are passionate about , or, our point on Confederate matters why not call me on the phone and let us say our rant on your show.
Okay then next entry, With Twin Falls Idaho growing faster than Marijiana plants, the fact is, and I've said it many times, if the the local paper in Twin Falls area, wants to really give a hat's off to the one organization that put the Magic Valley of Idaho, on any big corporate companies radar, how about doing a story about us, our club, the Hazzard Knytes/Knytes-of-Dixie? I'd go more into it, but it requires a full article , but I dare the Times News, to get out of their safe box, and recognize that if it wasn't for the Knytes-of-Dixie, the entire area from Burley, to Bliss would be going backwards. There is more history in our organization than just about any civil or hobby organization in that valley. An organization that started with a youth based CB radio club that presented a truckers/cb'ers Jamboree in 1975 at the Filer Fairgrounds, that trippled the local population by 300,000 in a week, to our organizing at the , then polish Palace, now Snake River Grill in Hagerman with 15 youth, and creating an organization that is now just over 150,000 people around the globe, 50,000 just in the North American Union. No, and I mean NO organization has invested more, opened more doors, or has spent the hours working for that community than the Knytes-of-Dixie. Now there's an article and it has one emblem it is this
We believe in it, we love it and we obey it. We know its not a symbol of hate, slavery, racism, or anything that it shouldn't. We know it's a symbol, of love, truth, family, and faith.

If we watch TV or movies we are enthrawlled with the heros, that get it done no matter what. They give the bird to the establishment and fight the system. For Hazzard County people it was always Bo & Luke Duke with a mucho amount of assistance from Cooter, Daisy, and Uncle Jessie. For Airwolf fans it was String Hawk with a bunch of help from Dom, and Caitlan and quite a few others. But we have a great hero or two, and I'll get to us in a few bars here.
That hero is a man named Zeb Bell. I met Zeb first at a gig in 1977/78 somewhere. I was part timing at radio station KLIX, AM 1310 back when Charlie Tuma ran it. I was being a filler person, inside a big yellow chicken called the KLIX KLUCKER, Zeb was covering the same gig, put on by then KMVT called AGRI-ACTION. On my breaks I'd sit down with Zeb and churn over radio war stories. Later I got together with him at the JB's Big Boy where we supposed to have lunch. One of my radio crew and I attended. Wouldn't you know it , my damn check from cousin Bud was running late, so Zeb bought breakfast. Zeb was going to put something together with us, but Gina killed the thing, But thing is I admire Zeb, he always says it as it is without much fanfare, nor caring much what those who oppose him have to say about it. In 2012 it was pitched to me that HazzardAyre buy KBAR. Over several weeks we thought we had that in the bag. Thing is at the last minute Kim Lee , pulled that plug, but HazzardAyre Radio went on anyway. We put up our own tower, we went on the air from our own 100 watt FM and said we don't care. HazzardAyre has never backed down from a challenge or withdrew because of a road block. Maybe its the Marine do or die attitude we have as club members(Remember Luke Duke did service in the Marines at least in Dukes story lines) maybe its Hazzard County tenacity and attitude, and as it says at the end of the title song to the Dukes, Fighting the System. With that said, by now you can figure out that what we are, is not always what you might think of as a network , station, or program born in Southern Idaho. We're working to retransmit Zeb's show hereto northern Utah/Western Wyoming on HazzardAyre Radio.
Been fussing to get a couple of honey's from the Boise area for our websites cover pages, TV ad's and such. I am reminded of the words of Uncle Jessie Duke, when he told us, when your getting ready to fill your bucket with water , make sure what you think is water is not a mirage. As such I'm thinking that 80% of what someone says or does or offers on such social sites as Facebook is pure garbage and only 10 to 20 % real. I caught a bunch of suggested sites on Facebook a month ago, from what I saw as a big new crop of model/acting talent coming out of the Boise valley. What I'm finding is and this goes to a thought, just because some gal gets inked, does not mean they are radical or rebel, most are still very reserved and withdrawn. So for two or so weeks I've been calling , chatting and messaging these gals, only to find no calls. No results. What does one have to do? Go to Los Angeles, Nashville, Atlanta or Miami for model/screen talent? Sure Salt Lake City has one partly qualified agency, the rest there are part time, hardly paying anything, LDS centered agencies. So one talent says to contact another gal. So I did. Now I may be stupid on some things after all I was raised in Hazzard Idaho. But I know if this was being headed by a female or woman casting agent, the line would be so long that you'd be serving pizza slices to those waiting to be auditioned. Sure, Evanston Wyoming is probably not the first place one thinks of when casting a gig. But dig this Park City Utah home of the Sundance Film Festival is 45 miles away from us. Salt Lake City is a mere 80 miles away, One would think that with a model/acting contract on the line of $350k that's $350,000.00 that you'd get a return phone call. The $350K is not just for the promotion of the online side of our radio/TV operation, mid 2017 it is planned to do a full length motion picture of the history and legacy of the Hazzard Knytes/Knytes(Knights) of Dixie. There is big things planned here, but for some unknown reason, talent is reluctant. Okay then, it is an election season. The candidates are all but organized. It's more finger shaking and BIG Shafts contests. Most anyone is looking at being reluctant to doing anything until after the elections are over. I have always said, that you can't move forward until you are willing to step forward. HazzardAyre by its founding in southern culture , is always and I say it again, hell bound on voting confederate at all times. It is that when I hear Zeb play our nations primary anthem, I'm always put off that he wont play the southern Anthem as well. Outside the station and my shop, as well as in my home, I proudly fly that Dixie flag. I'm proud of her, and know that , that flag is the saving grace of this nation. Confederate's seldom retreat, we did it 150 years ago, and yet, this nation has continued to become corrupt ever since. Had Jefferson Davis won, along with Robert E, this nation might not be in the tar pits it is now. Here in the Knytes-of-Dixie, the owners of HazzardAyre Radio, do not do what we do for the money, we do it for the cause of raising the south, and proclaming the legacy of well, Dixie. Now if the model talent and all will just get on board.

Ya win some and you loose some, it's the nature of life. Lexi said no, due to a conflict with her guy pal, not keen on her hanging with a bunch of rebel southern bikers and gearheads, so we lost there. However my thought is simple here, once she sees the club meeting at the Legal, and other none resident model gals there , I'd be willing to wager a full tank of diesel , she'd break loose. It was the same thing with Tammy, she poo-pooed us for a many months, once a few hotties showed up at the Lotty's, it was , hey no body is stealing her thunder and she was up for it. The rest there is history.
Okay then got news on The Reaper Club today. It can be had for $250k, so we see what bubbles. Although I'm excited , the reality of , if you have to import everything else from Idaho and Utah, might this gig play better there? So I'm being a bit gun shy on things. Let ya'll know. The fact is HazzardAyre Radio can move just about anywhere there's broadband Internet, since it is at its core a online station. Pocatello is looking good.
Last but not least, getting things patched with Shelly, I got to thinking the other night after church, that hey, I'm not getting younger, I'm not Mr. GQ, and Shelly might just be the best I get, so why not see where it goes. Still haven't heard squat from that Drag strip board, so that's another concern.
Been a long day, finally got oil for the General JaXson, Shelly came out in a taxi, with some, went up to the Legal, where Lexi gave me the bad news, oh well, like I said, Win some loose some, its normal, once upon a time this would piss me off, these days it'd be more of a shock if a model, much less an on air radio talent showed up, that did the task we ask, and do it right the first time, but as a model agency owner told me once, as big as both Boise and Salt Lake City is, it ain't Los Angeles, Nashville or Atlanta. It's low grade talent at best and you get lack luster results. There is another thing that was once said, You can't progress, if you keep doing the same things the same ways.
Tried to call that Armada talent agency today. As usual, got only a no answer, leave a message, my thoughts? Either a gone by night agency part fraud, or they too, no matter if they do, do, tattooed gals, they might not be hip to having their sweet honey's hanging around a bunch of southern fried gearheads and or pilots. I'm holding out for two an Ally, and an Alexandra from up Boise way, but one thing that remains solid, that is HazzardAyre(air) Radio.

I have been asked and at times chastized over the need to find , recruit and employ female models and talent for things HazzardAyre as well as the club. This all started back in 1974, when I got a sponsor for a race car from Dittos Jeans, through a department store called Pedersons , now known as Pederson's Ski And Sports. It was agreed that if they gave me money for racing, I'd supply the female model talent at the events I raced at wearing Dittos jeans. So I did, then it was 1980 that the roots of things Hazzard was taking hold, with a shop named the Hazzard County Garage, and maintaining continuity of the show on the shops TV ads, you should have a Daisy. Which is what started the interest in legs in nylons and such since networks and stations at the time made it a rule due to network censors that you could NOT have bare legs, on TV. So enter in the nylons. The first ad we produced was where at the end of the ad, I would kiss the models toes, playing on two words TOW and TOE, in that we luv(love) Toews. Putting the two words together. But that was my shop part of the story. As far as the club was concerned we were in the mindset that where hot girls and women were, there be guys into hot rods and customs and thus recruit members into the club. As far as the AyreWolvez were concerned the concept of models on TV or in print stems from, the concept of the nose art or pin up girls that were on military aircraft. It goes though even further, if your going to do up a TV ad, or a website, you really want something with sizzle. Not just a generic page that might or MIGHT not get seen or viewed. How do you do that, put a hot gal with or without tatts, by a ride, bike, truck or aircraft, in a short skirt . Have her read copy and you have an ad that most genuine male corpuscles will read , view and buy from. Now as far as the on air part.
That I got tuning into an old over the road truckers show that aired on KOB 77 out of New Mexico, called Joc Radio. They had weather and road spotters that would call in, which evolved into having in studio on air talent female of course, as male truckers loved to hear a velvety female voice as they moved freight, late at night. Of course later on there was a OTR drivers show called Interstate Trucker RAdio, which we as a organization bought in 1986. Which turned into Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio. A part of still HazzardAyre. Any mile, ITR had women co anchors or hosts, and again drivers really tuned in. It wasn't though until I caught on air at first then later his movie, Howard Stern , had Robin Quivers, who was his female second seat. I could go on here, but that's the way and reason we still today scout for and hire model and on air talent of hot looking gals.

Good morning friends it is Monday morning and I am in good spirits, just letting my pants dry so I can get dressed and get this day going. Seems though some days you can't get it into second even if you double clutch it.
Saw a bunch of garbage on a former FaceBook group i subscribed to. The group was supposed to be for those who haul cattle and livestock, which I do part time, yes one of many things I do to keep food on my table. What I rapidly found was a bunch of posts that are, not were , but are porn or porn related. With very little to do with bull hauling. Or trucking. So I did what one should do when faced with such things, I unsubscribed. Now I need to interject this , because it has changed my way of thinking. Years ago, seeing something sexually related was a hey great they're breaking the great barrier, today, after going to Church, the love of one family to me who belong to the church and serve our Ward, our Bishop, who I think could nearly walk on water, I see things so much differently. Sure I love tastefully done pics and photos of women with trucks, bikes, aircraft and so on, but when it has to do with outright exhibitions of body parts, except for legs, and such, I must turn away. I also don't like sexually related discussions of things crude. There is a vast gap, between the discussion, of relationships and such topics, and just being trashy. The trashy side, I'm no longer into, and the attitude of both the Knytes as well as the AyreWolvez is equal. For example, this is permissable
This is not
If that is what your into, your not into things Hazzard County and should just pass us on bye. This is what we call sexy
This is not
Okay then let's move on here. Turned on RFDTV, this morning after going through all too many news or what I call tabloid news networks. All talking about Trump, and Clinton and so on. Bullsbreath. This election season has been roughly volatile to say the least. Quite frankly, I wouldn't vote for any of these clowns. It's a Presidential run based on stardom rather than correcting the ills that challenge this nation. So as I watched RFDTV , and seeing the plugs for writing the FCC to preserve that channel, I look at the related emails, I wrote even going all the way back to 2009 when the Knytes and I wanted to air membership recruiting and company ads on RFDTV. We were shut down, flat with comments relating to our exploiting of women, yet they air, HeeHaw. Not saying anything bad against HeeHaw, I still say that a new version of HeeHaw could be done today. New scripts, new story lines, yet RFDTV said no. Well how many times over the last 6 years, have you heard that RFDTV has been dropped from cable systems, and stations, like KBAX out of Twin Falls Idaho, to now being given the boot completely? Maybe the CEO of RFDTV might want to give us a call and join not fight the Knytes. Now this on that; RFDTV says they are on air 24/7/365 for rural America, they ain't. RFDTV shuts off at 01:00 (1:00AM) and runs infomercials all night. Who is on 24/7/365? HazzardAyre Radio and Dixie-Nation TV. Finally I want to close with this. I get all too many people that tell me that there is no place called Hazzard Idaho, well my friends, here's Hazzard Idaho's main street
Welcome to Hazzard Idaho the way America was and longs to be, today. HazzardAyre on air this afternoon.
