about your son's thirteenth birthday to day unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Looking back at some old video.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
But you know when when time changes in your home too,
with you know, the dynamic of the family as the
kids get older. At our house, you know, I have
one daughter who's the oldest, and then everybody else all boys.
So there's always a point in our home and it's
almost like an unspoken where my wife has felt that.

(00:49):
And this happens with a lot of dads, I think.
I mean, we're the heavy guys. We come in and
deal with the you know, the major outbreaks. We don't
deal with the day to day maintenance usually of keeping
the kids in line, and and we're not exactly and
my wife has talked about this due to the fact
that all of us have been banned for helping with homework.
Once our kids, you know, reached, it got passed up,

(01:09):
you know, my mother's day out, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
And you know, and and.

Speaker 5 (01:14):
Right after we pass multiplication tables.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
Yeah, I've been so so my wife has talked about
that we as husbands, especially this bunch, that because of
what we do for a living, we do end up
having some time we can get away and go do
things a lot more than other dads get to do.
And uh and she said, you you get you have
become the face of fun and I am the face
of unfun.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
In the house. And she said, I'm I'm kind of
I'm kind.

Speaker 4 (01:41):

Speaker 4 (02:15):
So yesterday she she I'm talking to her and I said, hey, uh,
one of them's got practiced today right after school. She said, well,
you know what, you need to go take them. They
both got to have blood drawn today. My kids have
food allergies and periodically they have to go back and
get them checked. What's the sensitivity. And the good news

(02:35):
is that they're getting older. A lot of them are
not as severe as that is, but you have to
get it checked every so often. So h I said, no, no, no,
I'm not the not the blood.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
Guy and uh and I don't do doctor.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
And she said, well that's why I'm gonna make sure
you are the blood guy today.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
She goes.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
She goes, I'm ready for you to get cast in
something other than funds.

Speaker 5 (02:54):
One, something parental for right, okay?

Speaker 4 (02:56):
And yeah, yeah, I want you to actually parents today
as opposed to being their playmate. And uh and I said, uh, well,
but I said that I don't really that's not my
scene and and she said, no, uh, if you would,
since there is a practice right after it, come come
get the equipment. For practice. Then y'all hit the blood
and go in to practice, and I'm like, uh, all right,

(03:18):
so so you know, I get in that zone and
they pile into the van and they're so because it's
nothing for me to have a practical joke waiting on
them the minute they get in the van. Almost daily, yeah, almost,
I'll say things that, well, you know, we gotta go
do what dad, Well, we gotta go, uh, we gotta
get a shot today and what you know, and this

(03:38):
kind of stuff, and then I'll go, I'm just father.
So then they get in, I said, he said, what
do we doing? I said, well, you know, Big Love's
got practice and uh so have I got to go
to his practice? Yeah, you're gonna go with me today
we'll work. We'll work on your stuff at his practice
while he's practiced, you know, the two for one.

Speaker 3 (03:53):

step before we go get ice cream, you know, and
hey like that and uh and so you know, I'm like, look,

get the blood and let's roll on. So they start
kind of wigging out a little bit, and I look
back there and I'm like, what's wrong with y'all? I said,
y'all act this way when you were your mother, And
then and there was a look and I realized.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
And it sounded like a leaf blower.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah right, yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
I'm like, hey, y'all, y'all acting different because it's me.

Speaker 3 (05:27):

Speaker 4 (05:45):
So she's She's looked at her PR and realized I've
got to adjusted. I gotta throw some bad pr over
on Dad's side. So then I'm now I'm getting kind
of angry about it. Guys, y'all, I mean y'all acting
y'all acting weird about this when y'all forget it's not
like you've never given blood before.

Speaker 3 (05:58):

I grabbed the big one and pulled him out and
stand him up here's here's the first person in line.

Before you know it, there's there's there's kids on the
verge of tears in line out there holding her arms
out of you. You're the cause of it and I'm there.
But you know what, she didn't see me holding that
ice cream card. The guys, y'all were so good in there,

a little while.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
Y'all got through it. You're gonna be better for it.
Who won't I scream your fun again? You mom did

Speaker 4 (07:44):

Speaker 6 (07:50):
Yeah, we have a junior high tennis match today, weather permitting,
Wence Westminster.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Those of you that are new, Bubba became obsessed with tennis.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
How long ago, it'll be six years this time time.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
I'm obsessed and we've been keeping a running list of
things that Bubba will only do for tennis, and it's long.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Bubba.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
I received information yesterday and I'm gonna make sure I've
got this right. Okay, you'd asked me, speedy, don't be surprised, Speedy,
don't be surprised.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
I don't think it was having myself surprised.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
Did you play and a social this weekend that was
called Game Pet Match?

Speaker 3 (08:23):
I did for the Humane Society.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
It was a fundraiser for the Humane Society.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Surprised, surprised you participated in something called game pet Match?

Speaker 6 (08:32):
I know I had no part in all that, but
it was I just want to be sure I have
it right. It was a it was a social and
uh I needed the court time and it's a warm
up for our mixt season and my partner. My partner
could play in it, which is not always available, so
uh yeah, it was it was a good outing for us.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
We played six sets.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Is I'm surprised. I'm not. Look, I'm not even talking
about that that it was.

Speaker 6 (08:59):
I'll tell you what I pet, I had never seen you.
I've never seen a tennis fundraiser for the Humane Society,
Pet Matt. It was pretty funny to hear all the
dogs barking.

Speaker 4 (09:13):
Do you realize you do you realize the level of that?

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Do you realize the level of that?

Speaker 6 (09:19):
Good grace, Look, they were doing a fundraiser. I hope
they got some pets adopted.

Speaker 5 (09:24):
Uh, but I wasn't. I was there. I wasn't in
that part of it.

Speaker 6 (09:30):
I told them, I said, I got Can I tell gate,
I got a couple of dogs I'd like to get
rid of. Can I just bring some and set up
maybe somebod I'll take mine.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
But this, this is as shocking as as when you
changed over to Apple. Well, I mean, and and I
know that was a good move, but.

Speaker 6 (09:45):
Look, I don't mind. I look, I like the Humane
Society and those folks what they do. I mean, some
people get it all out of whack, but I think
the folks I met.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Were all nice.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
I know it's bigger than that, but you are.

Speaker 5 (09:57):
They did have some dots and puppies though.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Just I'm just like, if it was Game Pet strike,
you wouldn't have gone. I'm just saying, I'm just I'm just.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
There for the tennis event. That was my main guy.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
I'm just saying that you are. And I want to
get on record a strongly heterosexual male. Yes, and you
participated in Game pet match.

Speaker 6 (10:19):
Well, they were other strongly heterosexual males playing to.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
I'd like to see the other group represented well too, Huh.
I mean, are you you're going to do all day next.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
If it's do if they play tennis at Doe Day,
you're gonna put a sweater on you.

Speaker 6 (10:37):
Do down there, You've got you got it out of order.
So you're you're looking at it as a humane society
event against that mean me, it was a tennis event
and that had this other and uh, like I said,
I I've got four pets I wanted to give.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
To somebody, but I'm just somebody taking.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
I'm just saying, there's nothing, nothing else in this world
that could get you the game that match.

Speaker 5 (11:00):
But tennis, well, yeah, it was a tennis event.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
What if it was a Game Peter match? Yeah, Where's
where's the line?

Speaker 6 (11:08):
You know, I really can I be honest, sweet, I
didn't know there was anything tied to it till I
got there.

Speaker 5 (11:13):
And I saw the sign.

Speaker 6 (11:14):
You know, well.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
Over there dressed like a tiger, and you'd have been
would you go to would you go to a PTAA?
If they were eating and playing tennis raised money.

Speaker 5 (11:28):
For Peter I'm not gonna. I'm not giving peta.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
Tennis couldn't get you there that it has to be
a special occasion there, and then I would be and
then I would be uh, then I would be a
disruptive member of it. If Roger Federer was there and
asked you to play in a program at a pat
would you have done it?

Speaker 5 (11:49):
I would probably play if I could.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
For a Pina. Would would you play with Roger? Because
it's probably who he would support.

Speaker 6 (11:55):
I would for fundraising, I would announce that I don't
agree with the pete a lot of their militant tactics.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
No, but Roger, and Roger says, all I need is
one hundred dollars donation from you, and you play with.

Speaker 5 (12:06):
Me for I would probably like to get on the court.

Speaker 4 (12:09):

uh boy, I'm just trying to find the line.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
I don't for Obama?

I wouldn't go to an Obama.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Looking feder you wouldn't do it.

Speaker 5 (12:36):
Now that's not true. Now it's not true.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
By the way, Peter Peter was not the line.

Speaker 6 (12:41):
Pete is is a line I would not like. I'm
not Tolert that particular case.

Speaker 5 (12:46):

but it's the investment and they're heavy and they take
them getting used to.

I cannot sleep on my back, can't do it. Now,
if you sleep on the back, that's when the monsters
get you. You can't do that. That's a good point. But
if I'm asleep on my back, I'm never really asleep.
I'm like in that level. Just blow sleep and I'm
kind of away just a little bit on that.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
And now, look, if a vampire is gonna sut my neck,
I ain't just gonna lay there over my neck up.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
I I time five and my breath.

Speaker 5 (25:38):
I can't breathe right now. I've had a breath right now,
got a breath.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
You just slid off of him, Yeah, thank you?

Speaker 4 (25:44):

Speaker 3 (25:44):
No slid I did. I slid off. I had him.
I'll talk about that.

Speaker 4 (25:48):
You had him.

Speaker 5 (25:51):
I can't breathe.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
I still can't breathe. The breath is knocked out of speed.
He can't breathe right now because he has face first
side and get my breath. I'm trying to get my.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
I can't feel my right now. And the bull comes back. Stete,
he says, I go ahead and get out of here.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Steving you sitting in the stand. My knee is hurting bad.

Speaker 5 (26:16):
Well, you fell about that head for six foot look
at look at him talking?

Speaker 3 (26:21):
Who's talking to him? Sam from promotions? That head fan?
When you land it on that, you kind of hit
your head. Look out time five seconds right, yeah, I'm
gonna go back. Let's go back here.

Speaker 6 (26:31):
That's time he'd lose his contact with the bull. You
don't exact flight time, No, no.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
I was timing this when he fell.

Speaker 5 (26:37):
All right, now, listen, I started. Let's a long five seconds.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
It is, bud.

Speaker 5 (26:42):
Let's talk.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Let's let's talk about something real quick. All right. If this,
if this right here is the rope.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Okay, you've got a you've got you've got like a rope,
and then you've got one that goes over this that's connected,
okay to the main rope.

Speaker 5 (26:56):
And they so you put your rope on either both
sides right, so you you.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
You put you put it like this, okay.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Well, in most cases you know the old the old
death grip here where you're connected to the bull. And
no matter what, they come back through like we did
the other morning and come through here, and some of
them even go through their fingers. Well what they did
with me, they did a butterfly where they come back
through here and then just fold it back over your
palm and then you squeeze like that.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
That way you can let go and get out if
you need to.

Speaker 5 (27:22):
Yeah, that was my question. If you see yourself sliding
off of it, are you supposed to let go?

Speaker 3 (27:28):
Well, he said, that's a good question.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
He said that if you get to you know, it's
almost like you know, you've seen a saddle come off
and the guy starts sliding sideways.

Speaker 5 (27:35):
He's a point where you go, I'm off.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
Yeah, he says.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
If you keep going too far, you're gonna you're gonna
get underneath the legs of this thing or get stepped on.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
So so at some point you need to try to
push off. Well, when you're sitting on the muscle of
this thing, first of all, it's like sitting on a rail,
okay with it, and that's a spine, and then from
your thighs down you feel muscle. But when you feel
like you're sitting on a rail, well, because I didn't
have spurs on when I was squeezing this thing, my
grip didn't let go, but my my body, my butt

(28:03):
kept I was sliding off of it to the right.
So I got to a point where I got almost sideways,
and y'all saw I was trying so hard to pull
back up, but I couldn't.

Speaker 5 (28:11):
And you're holding in with those doesn't that make that
help will go?

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Though?

Speaker 5 (28:18):
It just helps it.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
But but so when when when I'm when I'm here
and they're talking to me. TJ's in the back, and
I start going here. At this point right here, I'm thinking, hey,
this thing is just gonna run. Yeah, I'm okay, and
it's not bad, so that I'm going, okay, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
And about right here, I'm like, okay, and that one
buck right there, you'll see my you'll see my butt.

Speaker 7 (28:39):
Now.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
I see I'm sliding to the right. You see that
I'm sliding. And they told me, don't let your butt
hit the back of this thing. So I'm trying to squeeze.
All right, So I'm squeezed.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Now you're going. Now I'm gone. So I'm sliding right now.
I'm now I'm still trying to hang on, but now
my butt's all the way on.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
To his rolling sideways a little bit too.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Yeah, and so now here's where I go. Oh, I see,
I see what hit me?

Speaker 7 (28:59):
Red?

Speaker 4 (29:00):
Look at the bell. See my leg underneath there. I
told you it was probably the bell. You're right, Rick
and boom.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
Yeah, by the way, he almost stepped on, mate.

Speaker 6 (29:08):
Yeah, you're real. You're lucky he broke left. Yeah, if
he did, if he kept going straight and he stepped on.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
So you're out of breath, out of breath and they're
pulling me up and they don't care.

Speaker 5 (29:17):
If you're out of breath. Runs son, you're a bull rider,
that's what they're telling.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
And the bulls coming back. And of course, now my
gum has grain of dirt in it.

Speaker 5 (29:25):
Stuck in your gum mouth face.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah, ricking bubba, ricking bubba.

Speaker 5 (29:34):
Rick.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
You know there's been times in your life where you
you know, you survived, started it out and you realize
that you were standing on the edge looking down. Oh sure,
because you lost a lot of men there, friends, the friends,
a lot of friends there. But I got no time
to mess around, right, trying to quote Van Halen, be
careful with that. You know, when we come to work

(29:55):
in the morning, it's dark, Oh so dark. And that's
okay because it's a peaceful time. But uh, darkness has
its drawbacks. And for you know what, eighteen years I
have left the house when it is dark. You know
what darkness is, the absence of light, that is correct.

Speaker 7 (30:15):
Huh uh.

Speaker 6 (30:16):
And if you you know, when you get up early,
you have the problems that go along with that, and
most notably waking your spouse up and that and for them,
I really lament because I know, when I'm sleeping and
Betty has to get up and go somewhere, you know,
I go.

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Wow, Wow, I really wish you wouldn't have woke me
up when you got up.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Why do we have Why do we have to slam
the drawers and open it?

Speaker 6 (30:41):
Yeah, I don't understand that day don't they will close.
There's no neat drawers.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
You can ease.

Speaker 4 (30:47):
You don't have to, know, you don't have to. You
don't have to close them, through the through the wood,
throw them back in. Is that a horse running through
the house or you walk so uh?

Speaker 5 (30:56):
But Betty, you know, she always tries to do a
great job with that, and I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
But I'm saying the door, you know, like you're coming
in a Western saloon.

Speaker 6 (31:03):
From my standpoint, I feel bad because you know, I'm
going to work. I'm headed out to slay the dragons,
you know, and I don't want to wake Crrup.

Speaker 5 (31:12):
Well that's that's what men do. Every day. We go
out and slay the dragon and then we drag it
in in the afternoon for approval. You know, how men are?
You know, you know our role? So this morning, uh
and and Rick, Once upon a time when we we
had built the house.

Speaker 6 (31:29):
We actually designed a bathroom closet and a bathroom and
closet that I could go out without going back into
the bedroom.

Speaker 5 (31:38):
Nother lords.

Speaker 6 (31:38):
It was designed so once I leave the bedding area
and shut the door, there's no more disturbing.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
I go the other way.

Speaker 6 (31:47):
Well, let's we put an extra door in so I
could go out there. There was basically two ways to
get into the back.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
You have a bookshelf on the other side. It was
like a secaret door.

Speaker 6 (31:56):
Yeah, and you actually there was like a there was
like can there was there was like a bust of
of you know Einstein.

Speaker 5 (32:05):
You know, you pull the head over.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Are you somebody's husband or right?

Speaker 6 (32:11):
But unfortunately, unfortunately in our house now we do not
have that second exit. So I have to come back
into the bedroom and then go back out the door. Well, uh,
it's a pretty short and direct path to the door,
and so I go in the dark and you know,
I know where the doorknob is and have it and
go out. Well, Uh, this morning, for some reason, and

(32:33):
I'm sure it was an oversight, Uh, we had a
clothes basket Uh that found its way into my path
and uh, you know when I go to the car.
I'm barely alive anyway. Uh, I've had a shower, I've
had clothes on, but I really haven't started thinking yet.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
I'm just yeah, I mean really, and I you know,
it hit.

Speaker 6 (32:57):
Me yesterday to gosh knows, I got to buy some closes, right,
Chick fil A. But my my rotation, my rotation is
about five shirts, by the way, and it's really rick.

Speaker 5 (33:09):
It's sad and there's no excuse for me.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
All those the two seventy shirts all look down and
I have different pairs, but so all I wears kaki shorts.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
That's all I got. Well, I mean, I'll have a
khaki pairs short.

Speaker 6 (33:21):
I've got to I've got to to what I call
the two seventy collection, and I've got the two forty collections.
The two forty collection has a lot more options, but
unfortunately it's not in play right now.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
So so the two seventy collection, Chick fil A and
Tulams this bit.

Speaker 6 (33:36):
Yeah, seriously, I got five shirts and any of y'all
that watch the show can name it. Ain't it ain't
that hard. There's about three under armor of different color.
I think I think links and this I think I
believe that. Yeah, I think the Tulm shirt it's that
color because it's some red hot rotation. Wait a minute,

(33:57):
I just moved it in because I had to move
the Chick fil A shired out because Greg's on me.

Speaker 4 (34:01):
But I just noticed Kaiva Dunes is in the two
forty slot. I haven't seen it in a while. Don't
do whatever.

Speaker 6 (34:07):
Well, it's uh, you know, really it's kind of in between.
I can push it, but it ain't pretty. So I'm
I'm walking out and strictly by overside again, no malice involved.
A clothes basket with clothes in it found its way
into my path now in the darkness. Uh, in the daylight,

(34:28):
that's not a big obstacle to get around.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
It's dark.

Speaker 6 (34:31):
But if you bump it with your right foot and
slide it slightly forward, and as you do that, you
realize something is in your way, so you start high
stepping and trying to get out of the way of it.
So you kick one foot forward, which slides the closed
basket forward.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
Maybe a foot because you just nip it right.

Speaker 6 (34:51):
But now you're totally freaked out because in the dark
where it is, I know now that it was a
closed basket.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
In the dark.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
It's a monster.

Speaker 7 (35:01):
I don't know what.

Speaker 5 (35:01):
I don't know what has.

Speaker 6 (35:02):
Gott because for five years coming out of that particular bathroom,
nothing has ever been there, nothing, So I just thought
nothing was going to be there today. So I kick
it slightly forward, begin to high step like Roger Craig,
which means my left foot went directly into the basket.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
Now I'm off even ground. I don't know what's gotten me.

Speaker 6 (35:23):
Something has my foot, so all I can do is
spin out of it, right, which means now you're totally
out of controlumb believe, come back around the way.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
Yeah, you went for the spin mon foot.

Speaker 7 (35:37):
I had no choice. I don't know what.

Speaker 6 (35:39):
I just I spun out of it because that there
was no other way to go, and then proceeded to
do some kind of dance on ice into the wall.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
So you didn't here, but just barely so you hit
the wall. I like to have broke two legs. How
high did Betty jump?

Speaker 6 (35:58):
I don't think she got up until I flipped the lot,
only kicked the basket against the wall.

Speaker 5 (36:02):
I think that's what you will come.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
But no malice, no, no malice. It was strictly nae love.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
That ricking Bubba. Rick and Bubba.

Speaker 5 (36:12):
The creature Man says it's the end of time and
the Mississippi River she's a gold drive.

And of course I know that's one of five states
that were affected. But the devastation from the tornadoes and
Alabama has uh definitely got the world's attention. But boy,

Well, I saw it.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
You know.

Speaker 7 (37:01):
The sireens are going off in Nashville. Also. You know
I'm up there because I mean I took my son
to school this morning, like a four wheeler to the
flat bottom boat to get to the trucks. We've got
all kinds of flooding over here in West Tennessee. That
that doesn't mean anything. I mean, we had telephone polls

(37:22):
coming out of the ground. But when I saw it
happened and sireens are going, I said, well, I don't
believe this. And I said that desk hole, surely I
heard that wrong, and h it was. I mean it
just I was just depressed for quite a while thinking
about all those people there, and I said, I'm gonna
do something, and I don't you know what am I

(37:43):
gonna do? Okay, I'll call kid Rong. Okay, we're gonna
let's go do a football stadium. Oball, we're raised fifty

horrible storm.

Yes used to be not wearing ten head, but get
up there and go next, you know, you know that
reminded me a lot of It is interesting for Hank
Williams Junior to actually come on and act like he's
ever been on time.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Yeah, yeah, you're right, You're right, You're right. I mean,
when Hank gets going, you know, how long is you

of special because kind of like we had the late
great god restless whole Dell Earnhart and you know, you
you just didn't you know, you didn't have a great
interview unless he told you off.

Speaker 1 (43:16):

Speaker 5 (43:24):
People out talked Rick and just take the land to
the call.

Speaker 4 (43:27):
You know, when you're talking to Hank Williams Junior, just
I was I think I was in shock that he
was on time for the interview to know what to do.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
I'm just picturing him and Kid Rock turkey hunting and Troy, right,
you imagine that they do. They do it quite a bit.
In case you've just shown us.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
Speedy has admitted to all the guys on the program
that on the drive to work today that he listened
to the Human League.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
What you're supposed to not have Thompson Twins even available
in it?

Speaker 5 (44:14):
And well I thought it came with a filter.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
It's wonder the tires to go flat.

Speaker 4 (44:18):
Well I know, And look, this is one of my
ideals where listen to this, listen to that, but listen
to the worst.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
You speed, listen to the worst Speedy Speedy. If your
football teams are listening right now, yeah, well you know
what they are. They know, I'm they just not hear.

and living another.

Think of an oversized heart, right uh and and a
man who and a man who loves animals.

Speaker 4 (52:06):
Yes, uh And I've been so clear about that over
the years that you know I I see I'm not
like a lot of people just love to have animals.
I actually love animals. Yes, thank you, which means I
want what's best for the animal. Now what's best for me?

Speaker 5 (52:18):
Thank you?

Speaker 7 (52:19):

Speaker 4 (52:20):
I do?

Speaker 5 (52:21):
Should I agree with you one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (52:23):
By the way, now I will say this that was
tested yesterday picking the boys up from school. You know
they hadn't been to school in a few days. We're
coming back from Arizona.

Speaker 5 (52:32):
You know they go to sleep in the line again.

Speaker 4 (52:34):
No I did not this time because I learned if
you do, nobody to help you, how about little pep people.

Speaker 3 (52:39):
Look, I'm a nervous peop.

Speaker 4 (52:39):
I'm a nervous wreck since the time I fell asleep
in the in the carpool line and all these women
just circled around me. I mean I could have had
a massive heart attack and all I needed was somebody
called nine one one or maybe give me a couple
of pumps on the chest.

Speaker 5 (52:53):
And you know what it was. They were afraid to
have to do mouth to mouth, you're right.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
And all they did was was was be angry that
I was in the way and holding the lineup, just
blew past me.

Speaker 5 (53:01):
Well, if I had to send you to call nine
one one, told him, sure, he's on fire.

Speaker 4 (53:09):
And you know, going back to school, you know, they
acted like that was just the end of the world.
You know, you know, how dare anyone wanted to go
back to school after they've spent you know, four or
five days in the National Championship game.

Speaker 5 (53:18):
Yeah, you know ours couldn't go.

Speaker 3 (53:20):
They were iced in, Yes, yeah, you couldn't get them.

Speaker 5 (53:22):
Off off the hill. We had one one car at
the bottom, so daddy got it.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
You were so you were so close to them not
having makeup work. Now you're back here.

Speaker 4 (53:28):
I know, Uh my kids, that's all. I think that celebrated.
We don't have to make up work. Everybody was out,
we were out to So we get in the car
and I mean it's frigid where we're living, I mean frigid.
So we're rolling home, you know, to get started on
the homework. So we try to get done for dark.

Speaker 5 (53:42):
And so I don't even brings.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
As we're headed home, we're rolling down the street that
we live on, and in a car's parked in the
middle of the road, and I'm like, oh my goodness,
what's going on here? And I look and a woman
is attempting to corral a York Yorkshire terrier, a little Yorky,
a little fuzzied up, a little fuzzy Yorky out of
the road, you know.

Speaker 3 (54:05):
And she just looks busy, you know, she just looks
like she's just completely shut down. And I'm like, pick
it up. You know, it's not.

Speaker 4 (54:12):
It's not some dogless like it. It looks like everybody's
picked it up, you know what I mean. I think
the reason why he's by your car. Is he's saying,
pick me up? And so she's trying to jump in
the door. You ever see anybody like I want, I
want it to be okay, but I can't seem to
resolve it, pick it up? And so and all I
can think about is I'm so close to being home
and uh, you know, please, but.

Speaker 5 (54:33):
A pretty busy road.

Speaker 7 (54:34):
I take it.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
Well, it's it can be busy at times, too busy
to be sitting in the middle of right, okay, and
uh and which you know, I thought we're we're both
gonna take one ride here to the old back bumper
if if some didn't happen, so uh so finally.

Speaker 5 (54:48):
The dog wouldn't cross oided and bug guy, No.

Speaker 3 (54:50):
It wasn't and which means it will not capture the
heart of Berlin, Germany. So normal.

Speaker 4 (54:56):
So all of a sudden, and every man knows this
terrible feeling because face at women, we are the night
in shining armor. When all of a sudden she makes
eye contact with me, and you can just see the
calm come over her face. A man's here, and uh,
and I send your directly.

Speaker 5 (55:13):
I don't have time to answer today. I'm gonna try
to get my van.

Speaker 4 (55:16):
Up broad Well, Greg's screening mine, Greg's screening mind, Greg
Rickbubba dot com and especially you, Nana Pudding.

Speaker 3 (55:22):
But anyway, so so anyway, I'm putting mad with me.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
Greg got ripped in an email to day from a
woman calling herself Nana pudd But anyway, so happy. So anyway,
then the boys start, Daddy, you gotta get out and
get that dog, Noddy, can we have it?

Speaker 7 (55:38):
Listen?

Speaker 3 (55:38):
Can you try to save some geese saving a dog?
What's happening?

Speaker 4 (55:42):
We don't even know who this This is probably just
the person's dog right here at this house.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
We're sitting in front of.

Speaker 5 (55:48):
Daddy, don't just leave it.

Speaker 4 (55:50):
And I'm like, oh my gosh. I so I stop,
and I called to I get out, and I go here.
I come to save the day. And I'm like, all right,
I've got it, ma'am. I see how you're flexed on
how to get this dog out of the road. Uh so,
uh so I get out, I get out, and I
scoop him up, you know, and he's loving being scooped up.
And and the first thing I noticed is he smells good,

(56:11):
which most dogs don't. So I think to myself, this
is a well kept dog. Now, if we're gonna have
a well kept dog, let's get a collar on it.
There's no collar on it, no identification. He never goes outside.

Speaker 5 (56:21):
I never go out an angel chip.

Speaker 3 (56:23):
Yeah, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 7 (56:26):
So you know me.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
You know how I love animals.

Speaker 4 (56:28):
And you know, the one the one thing I wanted
to do on my way home from work and picking
the boys up, you know, with it was to to
handle a Yorkshire h So so I get out and
I've got this little dog and he's.

Speaker 3 (56:39):
Just as precious, her shy or whatever. I didn't take
time to get that detailed.

Speaker 4 (56:43):
And so I go to the door and I knock,
and of course the guy comes out and he and
and and I and I immediately know that the conversation
is not gonna be about the dog when he gives
me a war eagle.

Speaker 3 (56:52):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (56:53):
How about that game? And I'm holding the dog? Okay, man,
I tell you, man, that was really something. Hey this,
I tell you what, man, I I just asked the season. Yes, yes, sir,
it really has been good. Uh did you get to
go to the game?

Speaker 7 (57:04):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (57:04):
I did. I just that was something, wasn't it? Yes, sir?

Speaker 4 (57:07):
It was, hey, you don't have Is this your dog? No, no,
it's not mine. I got some dogs that's not mine
and told me that early. Yeah. I said, okay, well
you got any idea whose dog this is? It's clearly
someone's done. Think is s in right across the street
over there? I said, all right, So I roll over
to that house and go up to the you know,
knock on the door and ring the doorbell, holding you
You did not want to do holding the dog.

Speaker 3 (57:27):
How was the dog taking it?

Speaker 4 (57:28):
Loving me would have gone home with me and been
happy to lived happily every afterg But I love dogs.
It's not about me. It's about the dog. And this
is the dog needs to be with his home. So
no one answers. And I noticed a garage, and I'll
go over to the garage and I look in and
I see food, water.

Speaker 6 (57:45):
So wait, Rick, you're at a house you don't know, yes,
and you're you're you got your garage.

Speaker 4 (57:50):
I know, I know the we're a quaint. It's this,
we're not dear friends, go and fix the sandwich. But
I know then they're like my neighbors. It's not like
it's not it's not I've been there. Before and when
I had to return their crazy cat one time. So anyway,
so up, So, so I go over and I look
and it looks like the place is just deserted. They're
probably stranded trying to get back from Arizona, right so
uh so, so I go over to the garage and
I put the dog in the garage. The door was open,

(58:12):
and I said, okay, he's home. Everybody's happy. And when
I turn around him, I shut the door. I turn around.
The dog is standing right behind me, and it kind
of spooked me. And he just looked at me, like,
where are you going?

Speaker 5 (58:21):
I said, hey, buddies, now you carried me.

Speaker 4 (58:23):
Hey, what in the world I just put you in there?
So you put him in somewhere, close the door. You
turn around. He's standing and he's standing behind me like
