Conversations in Broadcasting #34

The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the second half of the hour of 4:00 a.m. and the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. on the Wednesday of the twenty-second day of the month of August for the calendar year 2018  ("WKRG News 5 This Morning") appeared to have had this conversation between its news presenters (Jessica Taloney and Bill Riales) and a certain reporter for parts of it related to weather (a weather reporter named John Nodar):

Jessica Taloney: If you're looking to have a franktastic day this weekend, the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile will be making some stops around the gulf coast, but before they get to Alabama Thursday on their cross-country tour, Pensacola police made sure they were following the rules of the road

Bill Riales: Yeah, this video posted on their Facebook on Tuesday has almost six thousand views this morning. The post says they'd grilled the driver, as to why, she was hauling buns through the area, and apparently she was cited for a misterwiener--

(the program appeared to have had a video involving texts of "PPD GIVES WARM WELCOME TO 'WIENERMOBILE' " and "COVERING PENSACOLA")

Jessica Taloney: [elongated] Oh.

Bill Riales: --has been released.

Jessica Taloney: Ha, ha, ha. All right

Bill Riales: So coming up where you can get a glimpse of the--

Jessica Taloney: There she goes.

Bill Riales: -- iconic Wienermobile -- Friday they'll be driving to Orange Beach to spend the day; on Saturday they'll roll through Gulf Shores and this Sunday they'll be off Old Shell Road in Mobile. The Wienermobile will be open from ten to four all three days. So you can grab a hot dog, take a selfie, and, dah, make some other bad puns while you're there.

(note: the program appeared to have had some digital graphics involving texts of "OSCAR MEYER WIENERMOBILE", "COVERING THE COAST", "8/24 ROUSES, ORANGE BEACH"     "8/25 ROUSES, GULF SHORES", and "8/26 ROUSES MOBILE")

(disembodied laughter)

(note: the program appeared to have had an animated sequence with a disembodied voice being used to say, "Now John Nodar, with your fire alert storm team forecast", and some of "NOW", "JOHN NODAR", "NWA", "AMS CERTIFIED", and "FIRST ALERT STORM TEAM" before appearing to have had the news presenters and the reporter immediately afterwards)

John Nodar: Oh hot dog.

Bill Riales: There you go. Look, I thought it was bad, I thought I'd have to say franktastic, and then you--

Bill Riales: I got all wiener, didn't I?

Jessica Taloney: I feel all good about my self.
