Starting Florida Men on Florida Man.

Way down upon the Swanee River far, far away.

That's where my heart is yearning ever,

home where the old folks stay.

Welcome to Florida Mint on Florida Man with Josh Mills and Wayne McCarty.

The podcast where Floridians discuss the legends, lore, and crazy stories that always seem to take place in Florida.

We are joined this evening by our good friend Ryan Flanagan. Hello, Ryan. What's going on? How are you, sir? I'm well. We were having some interesting conversations before we went

live. We discussed lock-ins. Yep. We discussed Freak-Nick. Blow holes. We did not discuss Freak Nick well

enough, but yes. We talked about a lot of stuff. It's a lifestyle. I will say, I said to Ryan, Josh and I feel like we would have fit in a freaknik.

And Ryan said unequivocally, no, you would not.

Oh, maybe, yeah.

I mean, like, I'm not saying you wouldn't fit in.

Yeah.

I just don't know that we'd make it out.

We'd make it out of us would be ready for that right in middle school

I could do the squirrel and that was a dance move that a group of black girls taught me and they were

proud of me I'm gonna tell you something it wasn't a lot of dancing happening that too

okay that's the misconception yeah yeah it's true okay so we that's that segued into 90s music

and you said something Ryan that was pivotal said, what was going through our parents' minds allowing us to listen to the music we were listening to in the 90s? And you mentioned Pony. Pony is crazy. Oh, my gosh. And you were seven years old. Seven. Right. Yeah. And our parents were just like, hey, this is the tune that we're listening to on the way to school today if you're horny it's right there if you're seven years old and if you're horny right these lyrics

aren't veiled no they're not undercover it's not like the skeet skeet that came out and every white

woman was singing it right i know what you're talking about. Yeah.

I know what Ski-Ski-Ski-D is. Yeah.
