Hey, it's speedy, and this is Rick and Bubba's greatest hits,
flashing back through thirty one years of radio Gold. Every

Bubba's greatest hits.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Ricking Bubba, Rick and Bubba.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
We join Houston now awaiting our que and Bubba.

Speaker 4 (00:19):
Even though normally I would set a guest up, I
would not have the audacity to do that.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Today.

Speaker 5 (00:23):
Our guest today the International Space Station. And I'm going
to let you Samandra, Doug Wheelock. Yeah, I'm going to
flight Engineer Shinning Walker and flight Engineer Scott J.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Kelly.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
I will let you have the line that they have
told us that you must say exactly like it is
when you're cued by all people Houston through Eddie Van.

Speaker 5 (00:41):
Ever, we will be listening for those cues from Capcomer.

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Because we have to respond to them in a certain way.
We have to say a certain thing, right codes yea,
I'm still listening.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
By the way, the space station is now over Mexico,
quickly heading toward the Gulf of Mexico. It's going to
come up right over us.

Speaker 6 (01:03):
But you station, this is Houston. Are you ready for
the radio event.

Speaker 7 (01:10):
Houston. This is station. We're ready.

Speaker 6 (01:14):
Rick and Bubba syndicated radio show. This is Houston. Please
call station for.

Speaker 5 (01:18):
A voice check station. This is the Rick and Bubba
syndicated radio Show. How do you hear me?

Speaker 7 (01:27):
Rick and Bubba, We've got you, load and clear. Welcome
aboard the International Space Station.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
Oh well, Commander Doug, we're glad to be here. First off,
let me tell you thank you for making it happen,
and hello to everyone on the International Space Station. Doug.
Let me start with you. We've got a top window here,
but you have brought space back to Earth with your
use of social network media like never before. Can you

(01:53):
talk about that a little bit and how that has gone.

Speaker 7 (02:00):
Well, it's been great. And we always looking for ways,
Rick and Bubba to to bring the views that we
see out the window and the things that we're experiencing
in the ways of science on board the station, and
the experiences that we have inside as well, bring those
back to Earth so folks can enjoy those can see
what we're seeing and experience the very same thing. And

(02:23):
we tried to venture out and Scott is doing this
as well as far as using Twitter, and we've been
sending pictures and just our thoughts and comments down to Earth,
and so it's been a real thrill to be able
to do that.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
Our next question is for Flight Engineer Shannon Walker. Shannon,
if you get the chance to go back to the
International Space Station, what would you tell NASA that needs
to be done different and what would you do different personally?
If anything?

Speaker 8 (02:56):
Well, you know, actually, I think we've got it down
pretty well on how we operate day to day and
how we conduct ourselves up here. I think NATHA is
doing a pretty good job, and the station's doing a
pretty good job. So I think a few tweaks here
and there on how we manage some of our sewage,
but by and large, just keep doing what we're doing
and we'll accomplish great things.

Speaker 5 (03:19):
Our next question is for Flight Engineer Scott Jay Kelly, Scott,
when you get back to Earth, talk to us about
how long it takes you to transition back to your
Earth legs and what other problems might be in that
transition we're not aware of.

Speaker 9 (03:38):
Well, this is my first long duration flight, so as
far as my knowledge about how long it takes to
do that, it's just from talking to other astronauts on
a short duration mission. It takes so usually about three
or four days before people are feeling you know, one
hundred percent. On a logger flight like on board the

(03:58):
International Space Station take much longer. I think up up
to some cases several months before not only is a
person feeling normal, but they have you know, their their
bone mass, bone density, and muscle mass back. In some
cases it takes more than a year to get all
of that bone density back.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Commander Doug, let me ask you, and we've had a
lot of people want to know. It's very important work
what you're doing, and I know you're very busy, but
in your downtime, what do you get to do for
fun on the space station? Do you have video games there?
I know you work with Twitter as you mentioned, what
other things do you do for fun?

Speaker 7 (04:46):
Well, we have a lot of an assortment of movies
on board that sometimes we'll have movie nights together. We
tend to try to eat our meals in the evening
at least together, and so we can socialize a little
bit with our with our crew, our crewmates, and we read.
We also have email on board that we can correspond
with family and friends and probably the favorite of our

(05:09):
most favorite pastime is looking out the window, because when
you go to the kupola and you have the window
on the world, it's quite an amazing sight. And the
the Earth never disappoints.

Speaker 5 (05:22):
Well, Doug, let me let me follow up with you
on that comment you have wrote on the Space Shuttle.
You have been on the space station, you've been commander
of the space station, you have climbed to Mount Everest
or the top of Mount Everest. What are you going
to do for excitement when you get back to Earth.

Speaker 7 (05:44):
Well, I didn't go. I didn't make it to the
to the top of Mount Everest, but I did get
the base camp. But gosh, you know, the I'm just
really looking forward to the simple things. The probably the
biggest thing I'm looking forward to is hot running water,
taking taking a shower. Haven't had a shower since June,
so looking forward to that, and really looking forward to, uh,

(06:08):
to feeling a breathe against my face, you know, just
kind of smelling the earth and UH and all the
vegetation and just the uh, just experiencing the feel of
the Earth.

Speaker 5 (06:17):
Again, Doug, let me let me follow up with you
one more times since you brought that up. Talk to
us about Uh, how does how does traveling in space
and long duration and having the view you have, how
does it affect your spiritual beliefs and your spiritual side?
Has that has that changed? Has it been enhanced? What?

Speaker 3 (06:37):
What?

Speaker 5 (06:38):
How does that affect the soul of an astronaut?

Speaker 7 (06:46):
Well, yeah, each person is really different, I suppose in
their experience. For for me, it's it tends to strengthen
my my uh, my own personal beliefs and things, and uh,
it's it's quite an amazing place, you know, we we
you look at you look at the Earth and look
at it against the backdrop of space, and that you

(07:07):
can't help but you know, to sort of turn inward
about uh, you know, just your different your different thoughts
on on the beauty of our world and and sort
of your purpose in your place in this in this world.
Because when you look out your you feel pretty small.
When you when you look out into the cosmos and
then at the Earth and enjoy the peach of the

(07:31):
different views that we have going around the Earth, it
really makes you feel like you're quite a quite insignificant
really in the whole scheme of things, but really makes
you turn inward to kind of define yourself and your purpose.
So I think for me personally, it's it's a strength
in mine my personal beliefs.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
Shannon uh we had a question called in from a list,
or very good one. We're in the peak of the
meteor shower season. How does that affect you you being
outside most of the atmosphere and space danger wise and
what can you see shooting stars from the space station
down below you.

Speaker 8 (08:12):
That's a very good question. We are actually have a
very slight increase in risk of being hit by a
media during a meteor shower, but space isn't actually a
pretty big place, so we haven't noticed that we've been
hit by anything. We certainly had nothing come all the
way through this station. The interesting thing about metea showers
is that they take place below us. So when we

(08:33):
are looking out and we can see the shooting stars,
but they are below us because we're above the atmosphere,
so we see them underneath us.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
Scott, let me ask you a question about the end
of the Space Shuttle program in the future of NASA.
How are we looking there and what are your thoughts
on that.

Speaker 9 (08:57):
I think the end of the space Shuttle program is
is bittersweet. The Shuttle has been an amazing vehicle. It's uh,
you know, capabilities to perform various types of operations in
lower thorbit. I don't think will be superseded for you know, decades. However,
if we want to go beyond lower thorbit, we need

(09:20):
to build ourselves a new rocket and a new capsule,
and you know, to do that obviously is very expensive.
So we can't. We can't fund both programs and also
have this amazing space station that's just finally reaching its
capability that we currently have. So, you know, although it's

(09:42):
it's sad in one respect, it's it's understandable and I
think I think the future of NASA is bright. Certainly
we have some you know, our government has some decisions
to make here Stoon with regards to our budget, and
you know, whatever they decide. As NASA employees, we support
and you know, support it and the best way that

(10:03):
we can.

Speaker 5 (10:03):
Hey, we want to thank all of you for taking
time to speak with us. Thank you for the job
you're doing. And we can't underline that enough. Commander Doug,
thank you again. And Doug, do you want to give
a quick shout out to the teachers that have adopted
you or me? And you both are gonna have to
move to Mars.

Speaker 7 (10:28):
So we have our fourth crew member here in the
US segment. This is Al the astro nuts from our teachers.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Okay, So I wanted to tell you guys what happened yesterday,
and I'm very uncomfortable talking about it, but I'm gonna
go ahead let it out there. So yesterday, where we live,
and we've had about three of these in a row now,
was one of the most beautiful days. It was just
absolutely beautiful, and it wasn't too hot, it wasn't too cold.
It was cobalt blue skies, low humidity, uh, and just

(11:04):
beauty everywhere you look. So our youngest son is who
is still living in the city but now has his
own place. Once a week, well you know, until mom
can kind of we'll come have dinner with us. And
and so he was coming to have dinner with us
last night, and of course, you know what dinner last
night was leftovers from Eastern.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
And so, uhin's nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
So I declared, this must this, this, this must be
eating out on the screened in porch. We cannot stay inside.
It's too beautiful, it's too wonderful, and so we were
eating out there, and then we just got kind of
got the strolling around outside and just spending some time
out there and just loving it. And and Sherry, my wife,

(11:46):
is a huge fan of stargazing. She loves to look
at the stars. Okay, so she has an app so
she knows what she has all that, Oh, trrest me
on that one. She also h and Ham's I thought
about you on this said that she did some research
and they said, unless you are have expertise in the
telescope world, the telescopes of the level that will actually

(12:09):
give you a good look can be so complicated and
difficult to operate. If you've got a high dollar pair
of binoculars, you really can see just about the same
thing that any home type telescope is going to produce either.
And so she has some of those because you know,
she also to look at birds too. And we had
a little thing with a bird place advertiser locally yesterday.

(12:30):
And you know shery likes but of course I had
to introduce her to a new neighbor who also likes birds.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
Kitty Cat.

Speaker 4 (12:38):
Kitty Cat has moved in next door and I asked
bubb and he confirmed are all cats that are smoke colored.
Their name Smoky. Yes, okay, yeah, so Smoky. I noticed
he's enjoined our house as well. I see him in
quite a bit.

Speaker 5 (12:52):
Territory.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, he does.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
I may be a female because I don't smell anything, hopefully,
or maybe he's newted because I love that smell they
put out there around your Yeah, so I.

Speaker 5 (13:02):
Think they mark their territory to you, just in different ways.

Speaker 4 (13:05):
Right, well, scratch, I haven't smelled anything from this cats,
so maybe it's fixed.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (13:10):
So anyway, so then before you know it, the sun
start going down and the first star, of course it's
sheer informs me.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
Venus comes out and uh.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
You see some Venus and mars around here.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
Yeah, and so uh then all sudden the floodlights start
being cut off. And then all of a sudden, for
I know it, blankets you're coming out, and she said,
let's let's let's slay it here in the driveway and
look at stars.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
So late lay in the driver. We're laying down.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
That explains a lot.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
We're laying down in the driveway.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
The last time you drive as you lost your keys.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
I know you're you're right, you're right, Thankfully, I was
not on the road, so anyway, So it doesn't take long,
you know, for me to of course start to get
told that I'm not I'm not participating enough and exciting
because I'm sitting over in the grass. And then before
I know it, you know, and Brodie he's he's getting
ready to leave here.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Before too long.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
And now the blankets are out and all this, and
I'm like, sure, are we in for the long holiness?

Speaker 1 (14:07):
And all of a sudden what I look up and
I go, what is that? And suddenly you're paying attention.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
And of course immediately which I would do the same
thing for protection. Sure, he says, oh, that's clear than
an airplane. And I said, keep watching that. That thing's
moving kind of weird.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
I don't now, how do you how do you mean moving?

Speaker 3 (14:35):
Well, blablah.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
You know, usually when I see an airplane, I know
there's some optical illusions.

Speaker 9 (14:39):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
First of all.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
The lighting on it did not look like the lighting
on an airplane. It literally looked like it was a bright,
burning ball of light.

Speaker 5 (14:47):
Was it moving faster than an airplane?

Speaker 4 (14:49):
Well, a ratic, that was my problem. It was a ratic.
It was not flying in a straight line. It was
a ratic At first, nobody wanted to hear me that stuff.
I said, you need to look through those trees laying down.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
You're not already, you know, and Sherry, and Sherry also
loves trees.

Speaker 5 (15:06):
You're struggling trying to get up.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
Well, I've already been through a whole speech about the
difference in the lobb lolly pine and a and a
long leaf pine. And I struggled to stay into that one.
Uh Son, help you daddy out.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
The first thing I said, I said, I guys, I
don't want to lay there because I think I'm there
for the night.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
I don't think I can get up to sleep here.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
And and so then everything's good, and nobody wanted to
buy in. Dad Dad, I said, guys, I'm not a
I'm not a UFO alarm as you all know that.
I said, if I'm concerned, everybody needs to be concerned.
And before I knew it, all of a sudden, I
heard the first one, Oh wow, that is strange, and
that came from Brody. And then all since Sherey gets
up and gets your binoculars and starts trying to look

(15:45):
through the trees at She's like I don't think that's
an airplane either.

Speaker 10 (15:53):
From the side, and.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
Uh, I said, guys, we may be experiencing this together.
And then then then, which is an ongoing debate in
our house, Young Broderick says, I told y'all, I.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Told you, and he's been trying to tell you this
for you years. And I said, buddy, he goes.

Speaker 4 (16:14):
You know, he loves to pull out that thing and Ezekiel,
when Ezekiel's seeing something. He claims that Ezekiel was seeing
aliens and I said, sing, that's not oh, young Roderick.
He believes he can biblically make a case for Frailians.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Children.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
So I don't know what I saw.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
It hung around for a while because I you know,
an airplane usually comes like this and it comes over,
we watch it. It's straight lines past us and it
keeps on rolling away from.

Speaker 8 (16:45):
This.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
It was very tic tac looking, and it was it
was just a big old It didn't have multiple colors either.
It was just a white ball and like a ball,
and it came at us. At first I thought, well,
there it goes. It's just kind of low, and then
it kind of stopped and started moving that and then
it come back it wouldn't leave our area.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Ha, Hi, we talking how high? I have no idea.

Speaker 5 (17:06):
Something that we got me before.

Speaker 11 (17:07):
Okay, and this is just an honest question, because this
has actually happened to me. You mentioned earlier, very observant.
You said we were looking through the trees.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Was the wind blowing it all?

Speaker 11 (17:17):
No, because a lot of times when you get the
wind going back and forth, if it's a star, it'll
make it look like something's moved.

Speaker 4 (17:24):
Yeah, this one will sell you a lightning bud. No,
I did not let me help you with this one.

Speaker 5 (17:30):
They were out happened.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
I have felt fallen for that before.

Speaker 4 (17:33):
I saw it, before it ever got I saw it
in just open sky to begain okay, this help.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
And that's when I thought it was an airplane.

Speaker 4 (17:40):
I said, well, look it's moving, guys, that's got to
be some kind of of course it.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Was an aircraft.

Speaker 5 (17:44):
But we saw a lightning bug.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Well, I mean, oh my goodness, it's not a copter.
Wasn't a copter?

Speaker 4 (17:51):
Well that was brought up. But we listened. We couldn't
hear any noise. How they get you, you know, usually
you can hear it.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Hear a healthp so at one at one moment, did
y'all say, he'll be quiet, be quiet's listen.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
We did that, took question everybody, brody, we ain't gonna
hear it if you're gonna keep doing that, and uh
and so we listened and uh. Nothing nothing, just complete
silence in erratic movement. And it stayed longer than I
was comfortable with. I said to them at one time, guys,
we're about to have the greatest story because this thing

(18:21):
may be hovering, hovering over us, trying to get lined
up to get us. I said, look, it's it's trying
to position himself. What if it being with and I think, honestly,
I think it saw me and moved on. I think
it would have taken Sherry and broke that beard if
you were the protect I think.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
It looked down and says, we ain't got that kind
of don't bring him in here.

Speaker 5 (18:40):
We got another story to go with it.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Rick and Bubba.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
By the way, some of you that are watching on YouTube,
stop emailing me saying congratulations on securing an interview with
Brian Wilson.

Speaker 5 (18:55):
This is an oldie, but a goodie. I brought back
you take care oldie.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
Yeah, had that old captain's lid on it when he
came up.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
I bore it.

Speaker 5 (19:04):
I wore my captain sat up this morning, Rick and
told him I didn't take it off.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
All I did it function out there was great, great.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
People kept asking about it. Everybody's begging for it.

Speaker 4 (19:15):
I said, you gotta worder on one. I saw it
didn't give you mine. I saw some orders. They were moving.
People have people going off that cap map.

Speaker 5 (19:21):
Rick, Jeff Bezos wins or A scheduled to win the
billionaire in space race.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
So that's.

Speaker 5 (19:33):
Get out of bed, Brian the good eye, Brien eye.
So this was that.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Deal where who can get in what you have to do?

Speaker 5 (19:42):
You have all these competing billionaires trying to get to space.
You have SpaceX and they've done well. I would say
they're leading in the private race right now.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
You have.

Speaker 5 (19:54):
You have Richard, Sir Richard Branson, you know in his galactic.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
He came out of the gate like he was gonna
be the guy, and he had a few failures.

Speaker 5 (20:04):
Well, and they all do so. But it looks like
Bezos is scheduled to go next month and do a
suborbital flight which will give him about ten minutes of weightlessness.
With his brother, and they also auctioned off one of
the seats, which somebody won for two point eight million dollars.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
There William Bussy, but Bezos.

Speaker 5 (20:29):
Bezos is gonna put his lot of rocket, his booty
in the seat there. This this particular rocket, the Good
Shepherd is one of Greg's favorites.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
I don't know why.

Speaker 5 (20:39):
He seems to be a fan of it over SpaceX.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
And several other contents hang around the people I grew up,
anybody who Greg or he did when somebody could be
that Greg was.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
There, anybody when that was sketched out, says can we go?

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Let me ask you this? Can we still fly if
it looks different?

Speaker 8 (20:56):
Yea?

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Can we can we pull this off with a different
looking right? Because there's some rockets has made it. They
didn't like that, nothing like that?

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Right?

Speaker 5 (21:05):
So is that like?

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Is that the breakthrough?

Speaker 5 (21:09):
Have y'all seen the inside of this what it looks like?
Of course there's a little more room at the top
than there is in some rockets, but there are and
if you could find the picture of the inside of
the Good Shepherd, Uh, it's uh, it looks like a
conference room almost.

Speaker 12 (21:23):
Yeah, it's a round table in the metal.

Speaker 5 (21:35):
But everybody's sitting there looking at each other looks.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Like as wet as wet.

Speaker 5 (21:49):
Yeah, that's a little nerving.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
I goes and you know when everybody's crowded around, when
they got tell what it is.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
Hey man, congratulations on on going in space. Thank you,
thank you.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Let's get a picture when you buy the rocket and
I'm good, I'm good.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
I don't want to post.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
And you know they've got a they've got a lot
of facility in Texas, just like SpaceX does. So Texas
is becoming a new, uh hot spot for space trou serious.
I'm trying to save y'all because I ain't got time

(22:31):
for the email today.

Speaker 4 (22:33):
Good ship unless you got a good shirt, right, that's it.
That's a nice that's the thing you gotta learn one
you can go to one too many.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
Thank you, Greg?

Speaker 1 (22:45):
Are you talking out loud?

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Now?

Speaker 1 (22:46):
You will do that? That's a great We always give
it one more. Why don't you put yourself on the
other mountain?

Speaker 3 (22:52):
Talk you.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
Come back and forth? You rick done?

Speaker 5 (22:57):
Okay, but you want to these who's one of the
richest men in the world. Is it a little soon
to be jumping on the ship. I mean no, Listen,
they needed to be some missions there and back before
I get on it. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I mean,
if you're if you're him or Elon or whatever, you
let a few of.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
Them, you know.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Yeah, I'll go.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Look, I got the money, but I'm gonna say how
this thing pans out? Yeah, I'm just get good at it.
Especially Richard Branson. I hope his rockets are bettering that
balloon he kept flying. You remember how many times you
trying to fly around. We don't have to rescue it.

Speaker 5 (23:27):
He's got I mean, he's got a good design.

Speaker 4 (23:29):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
You know the the brothers built for him and I
can't think of their name.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Was his the one that crashed and killed one of
the pilots?

Speaker 5 (23:38):
Yes, yes, but they're the one that you know they
go the whole wing flips over and they form u
you know, kind of an air break coming down. There's
another name for it. No way, I'm saying it during
this segment, right and uh and you know they come back,
so we're gonna have Look, there's gonna be a lot
of chances to go to space here in the.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Next figure know exactly what he's doing.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
Yeah, uh huh, Yeah, yeah, but this this is different.
It's just this iss. He's gonna be the first one lesson.
I thought he was flying on musks. No, no, his
own Yeah, no, I thought he was. Well, I thought
he paid one.

Speaker 5 (24:16):
You've been making fun.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
Of SpaceX have one similar, Well they have it's not
near as No, No, they have their own.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Theirs looks yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Rocket.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
Well now I look at Bez. Look he could he
would come up with that.

Speaker 5 (24:32):
They're all Look, they're designed for aerodynamics, not the falcons,
the space falcon.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
Okay, he doesn't thought buying his way to go up. No,
Bezos his own thing. They have their they have their own.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
They're gonna be testing engines and Hunksville.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
In my mind, I only acknowledge the virgin guy and
then uh Branson.

Speaker 5 (24:53):
Yeah you got sir, Sir Branson, and you've got you've
gone and got Bezos. Which is space? Is Branson the
one did that nectar island or yes?

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, yes, try to get bumps. I was really thinking
about it. He had a record label and then an airline.

Speaker 5 (25:11):
I watched the documentary on the island deal.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
That's that's of course.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
I think it got hammered in her. He did it
got destroyed, and that last hurricane it came fly. I
get him all confused, Musk Bezos and then sir.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Richard, I didn't have in the space hunt. Yeah I
missed that.

Speaker 5 (25:26):
After making fun of his rocket the whole time, he
didn't realize that was.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
Musk on of his Now you thought Elia Musk was
pulling the joke on Bezo.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yeah, hey, right, wow, they're all in.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
They're all in the space race, okay, and Bezos claims
he's gonna win over must I know. Richard Branson came
out of the gate like this is the guy, and
then he asked, is this gonna be like.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
The the red bull dude that went up there? And
then he kind of just fell fell out and remember
he fell back into.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
Nobody's jumping out of this for a little I mean,
but he's gonna go out for a little bit and
then go up a sub orbital flight and then they'll
they'll come back down. But you get ten minutes of
waitness do you now all throw M and M's up,
you know, and.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
It's like that, what is right about ricking bubba? Ricking bubba?

Speaker 10 (26:16):

That was the world's largest bottle rocket at West.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
Are you two?

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I need to know if you're crying your odds are

Speaker 15 (28:41):
Okay, gosh, Baba, yeah your water my, there's you in there.
I looked over there and I was doing the show
with Glenn bag doing.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
Okay, Bubba. Now, this is what broke my heart yesterday.
Bubba was everybody. Bubba was set up. He did no question,
and he heard that countdown and heard that thrush all.

Speaker 5 (29:05):
The sound, to me is just unbelievable. And I love
the sound probably as much as the sight.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
Well, here was a much you cry. This is where
the real Greg Burgess and I found ourselves in a
strange place. We were hit after the show yesterday with
a with a good, good bit of production. Production means
bubb and I are cutting spots or promos for people
or whatever that happens after the show on the satellite.
If you're an extreme club member, you've heard some of
those sessions. And Bubba got caught up and trying to

(29:35):
get a spot right. He walked out of the room
and all of a sudden, Greg and I look up
in the and the areas is launching and I'm like, oh,
my gosh, bub has missed it.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
And uh and when did you realize you had missed it?

Speaker 5 (29:48):
Well, I was trying to monitor h NASA TV on
my laptop and I was watching in here and they
had not gone, you know, to the countdown clock. I
thought they would give us about a minute, you know,
the big giant letters, you know. I stood by that clock.
It's humongo.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
I mean I felt like I was cheating on Bubba.
I looked at it and thing was flying us in
my gosh, and I've stolen Bubba's lunch.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
So so I go back to the office and I
put all my stuff down and I'm trying to get organized,
and I flipped the TV zone and I'm trying to
get on uh you know, Fox News or seeing in
to watch it. And about the time I get there,
the thing's going I mean they're already down range, you know,
thirty miles And I'm like, what it's.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
Going on here? How did I miss that?

Speaker 14 (30:27):
Well?

Speaker 3 (30:28):
I thought it was a thing of beauty.

Speaker 5 (30:29):
Yeah, I had to watch the replace. I watched it
several times. Hey, the world's largest bottle rocket. That's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
One did it fill you he cried if he missed it.

Speaker 5 (30:38):
He didn't cry. I got an egg that had an
onion or pepper soth. You were singing him that and allergies.
It just appeared that I was.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
I was still emotional, fresh and gorting his daughter at
homecoming last night. Sure that too, you thought, on top of.

Speaker 5 (30:52):
This rocket, everything that was great? Number one?

Speaker 9 (30:55):
Right?

Speaker 3 (30:56):
So sobbed a little.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
So what what if there came a day that that
NASA launched a rocket in space with a tennis player?

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Ride to big? Is that your day? Am I riding
with a tennis player on a rocket of your choice?

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Of your choice, one of the one of the fine
girls you like?

Speaker 5 (31:17):
Well, I wouldn't. I don't think that would be a
good That's a trip that's not approper.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
No, but anybody you picked, now you know, some of
the tennis players might be scared to do it. I
don't know. But I'm just saying, say, yeah, uh that
we're going to interview in a minute.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
Yeah, she's a child, right right, So so I would
think he'd probably be You have to remind him of that, uh, probably?

Speaker 1 (31:41):
So can we go with an American? Please?

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Well, there aren't any.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
We're having a little little in our output.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, I mean, no offense.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
Try to go about Derek Jeter, Blake, Look, Blake, I
want to go with Derek Jeter. Yeah, Blake seems like
a nice young man, but I hadn't seen him win
a big one in.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
A walk about he Rodick.

Speaker 5 (32:01):
Uh, Yeah, he's hurt.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
He's lost his mojo.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
He was he was mean to you too, he was
he was nice and he made you tear up that
day too, in a negative one. Yeah, little bub in
the corner.

Speaker 5 (32:13):
They all were very nice. Glad to see him, right, Rick,
A lot going on in the world, of course. You know,
this thing with Sony in the interview has been unbelieved.
I mean, this is something's gonna be in the history.

Speaker 10 (32:26):
It is, it is.

Speaker 5 (32:27):
It's the first battle in the in a of a
sober warfare. And and Sony and the US lost. We
wasn't ready.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
I mean, you can't really. I mean, I mean that
we buckled.

Speaker 5 (32:40):
And as a matter of fact, Sony has reacted to this,
and and Adler, if you'll bring up Speedy's computer, we've
got a new picture of the new chairman and CEO
of Sony.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
He just took the reins last night. Kim Young meet
the new CEO of Sony There.

Speaker 5 (32:59):
It is now direck. More stories are coming out North
Korea apparently now. This is from a Defense Intelligence Agency
report that it was recently declassified. North Korea dispatched covert
commando teams to the United States in the nineteen nineties
to attack nuclear plants and major cities if a conflict
broke out with North Korea. According to the report, they

(33:24):
said five units of covert commandos were trained for the
attacks inside the country. According to the report, the Reconnaissance
Bureau of North Korea had agents in place to attack
American I'm sorry, American nuclear plants. The document states at
North Korea Ministry of People's Armed Forces nice name, the

(33:46):
ministry in charge of the military established five offices in
early nineteen ninety to train and infiltrade operatives in the
United States to attack nuclear plants and major cities if
hostilities broke out. Now, the driving force behind this plan
was that uh that that at that time, the the

(34:10):
North Koreans did not have a missile that would hit
the US with their current nuclear weapon. Okay, North Korea
is known to have at least two long range missiles
now capable of hitting the United States. One of them
wrick known as the Dong one and then the Dong two.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
I knew that way, Greg.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
Suddenly Greg's in on the Christmas part. We're going to
lease the.

Speaker 5 (34:36):
Dong well, and he said that even more comical, you know,
truth sometimes more comedy or any than, I mean than.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Fiction could be.

Speaker 4 (34:49):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (34:49):
The two stage Dong rocket that could hit the United
States is known as the long Dong.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
That's not true, it is you just that's not true,
you mad.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
I'm telling y'all, I can't How can I make I
don't know how do they not know?

Speaker 9 (35:02):
You know?

Speaker 3 (35:02):
I mean, I know this another country, but surely slang's international.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Some's not not huh.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Again.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
The disclosure of the report, obtained under the Freedom of
Information Act, comes amid threats of North Korean agents to
conduct six September the eleventh style terrorist attacks against US
movie theaters. So they were going to do that, well,
they're they're saying that they had capabilities, that they had
agents in our country.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
Ready to attack.

Speaker 5 (35:33):
Nuclear plants with it with a Dong missile or just
they have well those would be commandos. But they also
had the series of the Dong missiles.

Speaker 4 (35:45):
First of all, I ain't buying all that about we
got commandos gonna do this and do that.

Speaker 1 (35:48):
Look, I know you can hack in on computer. I'll
give you that, but I'm not convinced of that.

Speaker 4 (35:51):
Other And as far as the dog, as far as
the dogs and they're how successful they'd be.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
Well, you know, there's a lot of dong hot, but.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
The well, rick, that's it. Bring out the dogs? Mad enough?
You you release movie, we released, don't okay, wanted to? Okay,
we trash all we can stop because we're gonna go
too far.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
Really, I'm just saying that's what they're That's that, not
the name of it. That's what Baba saying. He's just
reading verbata correct.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
What's the new one?

Speaker 3 (36:23):
But if we can't read a story, then you know,
be don't be mad at us?

Speaker 5 (36:26):
Yeah, I mean I can't the name of it, be
mad at North Korea. Listen, the name of it is.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
They named it.

Speaker 5 (36:33):
Twenty six letters long, and it ends it ends in
d O n G. The American Western press just says
the last because that's all they can say. Nobody can
pronounce all that You think.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
It's done or is it done.

Speaker 5 (36:47):
Do o ng is done?

Speaker 1 (36:48):
You're dunge is do you?

Speaker 10 (36:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (36:49):
I just didn't know. I just wanted to make sure
heard the reports. I mean, we've heard the reports.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
People give it. I mean, I'm sorry, that's just what
is g O n G is gone.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
So do o ng has to be done, has to be.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
It has to be.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
And the one that goes the featherst is the long dog.

Speaker 15 (37:03):
That's the one what is.

Speaker 5 (37:04):
Called the multi stage intercontinental ballisticness side.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
You know that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
Yep, you'll keep this that we shoot long dog at you.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
Okay, maybe we should call it long range domes.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
That would be better.

Speaker 5 (37:16):
I'm just telling you that's what they call.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
I think if we just say dogs, of course, the
short range dolls, right Rick.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
The documents, the documents that were released, we're based We're
based on a defector identified in the paperwork only as
Jackson and his former Air Force officer who was working
inside North Korea for the Reconnaissance Bureau. The nineteen ninety
eight document stated that the officer had been captured by

(37:50):
North Korea and was teaching North Korean US special forces tactics.
So see, they had one of our guys. That was
spilling the.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
Beans on that line. We had an empty scamp.

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Yep. Yeah, okay, you know I saw an article where
a haircut may not be in charge anymore. You know.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
He disappeared for a while, came back limping. He said
he had foot surgery, but they said he may not
be in charge.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
Could our new lasers that the Navy have could it
slice the dog?

Speaker 1 (38:14):
I mean, if it was coming in.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
I don't know if it's been tested against intercontinental ballistic.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
That's what it does.

Speaker 1 (38:20):
That's what it does, right, Yeah, that'd be hard to do.

Speaker 5 (38:23):
Yeah, well, you know, the size and the speed of
the attacking rocket would have a lot to do with it.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Rick, I don't know which is one is a simple question.

Speaker 5 (38:33):
We just don't know.

Speaker 4 (38:34):
Okay, we're taking your phone calls to have speed. He's
got to go to a baseball tournament. That's gonna be
at the beach. When you do these things, even if
you go anywhere, you always go to the hotel pool
and you're at the beach, you're gonna go to the beach.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
He's had surgery.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
They cut a square out of the hair on his body,
so he has a bald square that reveals his stomach.
He really looks like, you know, like these these animals
that you get one time, those stuffed animals where it's fur,
but the belly is made out of another material. And
so what people are wondering what we're wanting. Does Speedy
need to shave this, shave his body start over? Just

(39:10):
be just say, hey, look I'm somebody's dad. I've got
a bald square. I'm sureless. I couldn't care less what
y'all think. I'm here to coach a team or and
I think this one really is not going to get
off the ground become fair skinned T shirt guy, and.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
I don't want to do that.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
I mean, I'm at a time in my life where
you can't really be T shirt.

Speaker 15 (39:29):
You know.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
I'm what I remember at times when I was younger
of going, no, dad, you wearing dress socks for that?

Speaker 3 (39:36):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (39:36):
You know?

Speaker 1 (39:37):
And I know he was at the time of his
life where I don't care, but we deal with it.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
I do that all the time.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
I'll walk out to the mailbox and Sunday socks and
shorts in a second, sure.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Even go play in the backyard in it.

Speaker 4 (39:49):
Right, And so because you know why, I don't feel
like changing socks, right, because I'm somebody's dad.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
I've earned it right, So part of me is fighting that.
Just hey, deal with it, y'all.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Right, let's go to Debora in Tusk, LUSA, w R
t R Debra, how about it? Hey, yeah, we do
you think I say, he's never going to say those
pips less the beach?

Speaker 16 (40:08):
Go with that for sure. I'm sure there's a lot
worse to look at the his stomach.

Speaker 4 (40:11):
Now, there's no question about that if you go to
the beach. The fact that you it's just apparent when
everyone goes to the beach, the ability to care is
left back at home.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
It's true.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
People walk up down that beach and it's like, what
in the world?

Speaker 1 (40:28):
Yeah, two pieces?

Speaker 3 (40:29):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Right?

Speaker 3 (40:30):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (40:31):
And say, you know that's again they made one pieces,
you know that? And you wonder which you shoudn't have
that on which Bathing says didn't make the cut.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
But you know the good thing about the team that
we're going down there with is it's there's a lot
of just fun parents and we all get along great.
But there's some there's some you know, some some jokesters
in the bunch, and.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
Well that's your concern. The people you do keep seeing.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Yeah, and we don't have the gunners will treaty among
the coaches. We need to pull that.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
You feel like you wish it, don't you ever wish
when you go th other circles? Rans right, everybody was
under it.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
Because what will happen is, uh, one of them will
take some unflattering photo, send it to y'all. It'll be
worldwide within ten minutes, you know. And I'm like, so
that's me.

Speaker 4 (41:10):

Speaker 1 (45:00):
To be that guy.

Speaker 16 (45:01):
Okay, this is one of those chips that he can
be on the beach.

Speaker 5 (45:03):
And he can be that guy.

Speaker 4 (45:04):
The shaving guy's slick walker.

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Y'all don't they look like a beast?

Speaker 1 (45:11):
Well?

Speaker 4 (45:11):
If I shave, well, the only thing, if you shave,
like I said, you have to shave arms, everything, and
then you leave those legs Harry got Oh no, if
you take the hair off your legs, they got tiny,
they're gonna be now.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Harry gives you a little more girl.

Speaker 5 (45:27):
A little water.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
It's time out the match stick, all right, don't you

Speaker 1 (45:49):
I'm doing all right, man, I'm going No, we're doing great.

Speaker 16 (45:53):
Hey man, I say shave it.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Shave it, I mean just shave it all the way
you're talking mark three or what?

Speaker 5 (46:00):
Sure?

Speaker 16 (46:00):
Your whole chest down up? I have golf and I
have a golf lery move my whole chest.

Speaker 4 (46:06):
Man, Yeah, shave it off, shave it off, have a shave. Yeah,
nobody would have a shaving party. Nobody want to see
you walking around with like like like some kind of
wind to looking at.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
You, dummy. Huh.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
Yeah. Well then look as a husband too. You have
to come up with this idea too, and that is, Hey,
I'm walking around in front of my wife. I don't
want to look like a goodie in front of her either.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Here we go. So here's the thing. Are we're taking
a fair skin T shirt got off the table?

Speaker 4 (46:33):
I think so even though a fair skin T shirt
guy is the easiest.

Speaker 1 (46:38):
It's gonna be hot. No, no, And you don't want
to be fair skinned muscle shirt t shirt.

Speaker 5 (46:43):
But if you're shaved, you you know, I mean, your
chance is a sunburner.

Speaker 3 (46:46):
You better you better load up on that sunscreen, fair skin.

Speaker 1 (46:50):
I'll be piling fair skin T shirt guys, you know
with a big hat.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
Stuff up there.

Speaker 1 (46:56):
Look and the bald head presents so many dilemmas when
you go to the beach, because you gotta go, hey,
Gilligan hat, No Gilligan hat. When I get in the water,
I gotta have sunscreen on, you know, dermatologists scaring your death.

Speaker 3 (47:09):
I mean, well, to me, you're down to this. You're
not gonna do a tattoo.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
That's out.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
You're not gonna be t shirt fairskin guy unless it's
temperary tattoo.

Speaker 1 (47:18):
You well, okay, now that's an option, Hannah. But you're
pretty much down to shaver, not to show you shave.
What about instead of shave instead of like mock three?
You know, baby, but sharing just a blend of it,
like a trimming.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
What are you gonna do with those arms? I guess
I'm gonna have to trim them.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
Up, Ricking Bubba, Ricking Bubba.

Speaker 3 (47:38):
Joseph in Athens, Alabama.

Speaker 16 (47:40):
Hey, good morning guys, Hey hello Joseph. I wanted Bubba
to relive for some of the listeners who aren't familiar
with it, the story of the live remote where the
lady brings up a little surprise in the bag and
and how Bubba react to that's a classic one for me.

Speaker 5 (47:56):
Well, I get asked to tell that story a lot.
And you've been out to live event in the last
two years, you've probably heard it.

Speaker 4 (48:03):
Well, well, it's just surprises or not when you know
someone has uh, and I'll go phobia about something freak.

Speaker 5 (48:12):
It's not a phobia, it's a be safe right because
they're deadly.

Speaker 3 (48:16):
It's a phobia.

Speaker 5 (48:18):
If you monitor tornades. Would you say I have a
phobia about tornadoes.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
If you spend every day in a storm shelter, yes.

Speaker 5 (48:25):
Well, I don't think.

Speaker 4 (48:26):
But if you snake boots, you think, you think they're everywhere,
You think snakes are out to get you.

Speaker 5 (48:33):
That's like wearing a seatbelt.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
Okay, Okay, it could be all year they are, they're
out there all year. Let me ask you this.

Speaker 5 (48:39):
Okay, So I quit wearing snake boots until Lucky Bailey
came in one morning when it was about nine and
he said he saw a snake on the log, and
I thought, well, there you go.

Speaker 3 (48:46):
What I'm saying, Bobba, you're not making every.

Speaker 5 (48:48):
They're moving slow though, then you put them on the head.

Speaker 4 (48:51):
You're not making a very good case. And I'll go
back to when you when you gave a warning one
time several years ago, when somebody was going to put
a rat on me, right, and you said, I'm gonna
tell you something.

Speaker 5 (49:02):
Don't do that.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
If you're regret what he's gonna do to you, he
won't be responsible for.

Speaker 5 (49:06):
Him any equipment and everything.

Speaker 4 (49:07):
Yeah, and not everybody responds to rats that way, So
I might acknowledge that I'm in another level of my
disdain for rats. And if you kick a woman in
her chest and to the point that your shoe mark's
on her chest and kill her snake, that's a bigger
level than I just don't like snakes.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
Just jumped into reality if we could.

Speaker 5 (49:28):
There's two things here. I don't like snakes with the
surprise factor when you have a line of people and
everybody's bringing up candy and cakes and as they always did.
In Center, Alabama. There's such nice, hospitable folks, and one
lady says, I've got something for you, and she reaches
in a bag and puts a snake like two inches
from your nose. I mean, the shock factor of that alone,

(49:49):
I mean, I wouldn't want somebody to put an ice
cream comb up my face like that, unsuspecting. Really that
would draw a response to you. But they probably wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
Get kicked in it. They probably get kicked in the
chest the other that's.

Speaker 5 (50:00):
Wrong them and eat it right. Some people, Baba disarm
them with a quick Ninja move right right R.

Speaker 4 (50:07):
Normal concern for a snake would be running in the
other direction. Yeah, and attacking a person. Well, I don't
want to another level, Rick.

Speaker 5 (50:14):
I don't think it was an attack. It was a
defensive move.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
I'm just saying I'm saying what she called it.

Speaker 5 (50:20):
Yeah, well, you're denial.

Speaker 1 (50:23):
That one time too, and said you didn't.

Speaker 5 (50:25):
I couldn't tell really what she was saying about it
her tears. I mean, you know, when somebody's sobbing, it's
kind of hard to tell what they're saying.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
If you want to know who this woman, you may
not loved.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
Y'all.

Speaker 4 (50:37):
You may not know who this woman is, but you
will know if you've ever been around a woman who
walks around murmuring I hate ricking.

Speaker 5 (50:44):
Yeah in the bottom line, and I won't I won't
give the full story. But the concave chest, she sticks
the snake in my face and rick as you described it,
because I don't really remember the exact events from that point.

Speaker 3 (50:57):
It was like kung fu pandom.

Speaker 5 (50:58):
Yeah, I'm told. I'm told that I jumped into the
air at what most people would think was an unrealistic
for a man of my weight. I think it was possible,
and and I kicked her right in the chest and
flipped her about three times backwards. She had a black
shirt on. You can see my footprint right here. And uh,

(51:19):
then I grabbed her snake, and which again shows it.
I was a little out of my element.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
At one point. Killed I thought it was I thought
it was a rubber hose pot.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
Yeah the way.

Speaker 5 (51:28):
If you will beat it on the fave, but it'll die.

Speaker 4 (51:34):
And we thought we heard it wasn't real clear that
you could barely understanding non poisonous.

Speaker 5 (51:41):
And when I and when I it's speedy, when I
came to I was kind of in this position and
I look over at Rick and his eyes are biggest
soft boss. And nobody knew what to say about it.
And I said, what just happened? And he said, I
know it sounds it's impossible, but you jumped up about that,
and it's like you hung there and it was like

(52:03):
it was like that movie.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
What was it? That crazy? I wouldn't believe it is.

Speaker 5 (52:08):
Rick said he could like see a three hundred and sixty,
the great shot of it.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
And the only way I believe it is that I
saw and it was his mouth moving with.

Speaker 5 (52:19):
The word I'll be honest with you.

Speaker 3 (52:20):
I got More's eyes were just glossed over.

Speaker 5 (52:22):
I got a pretty good kick into that lady because
she flipped three or four times before she stopped start crying.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
The reason why I knew I knocked the bread.

Speaker 4 (52:31):
The reason why I knew that when she took a
pocket knife and took her ricking bumpers took her off
her car before she left.

Speaker 5 (52:39):
Yeah, but you shouldn't do that. You shouldn't put a
snake in somebody's face, especially somebody who's lethal in the right.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
You know, in my first reaction, I tried to give
her a free T shirt. That was stupid.

Speaker 5 (52:47):
Yeah, but she needed something to care that dead snake on.

Speaker 3 (52:51):
Everybody loves to get a picture of their attacker.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
Yeah you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (52:55):
Oh my gosh, she won't do it again.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
No, you don't to worry about it. I take Center
was strange. We had we had we had cougar's rick
full grown, long weird tail cougars. The day was diamond necklaces, unleashes.
There it's almost shungo dogs ding u sharp ay pigs
like the pig like three times too much.

Speaker 4 (53:19):
It was what it was.

Speaker 5 (53:22):
You know, it's a huddle house in the middle of Center, Alabama.

Speaker 3 (53:26):
In the middle of some place. Now, man, let me
say this. I think what it was. Greg.

Speaker 4 (53:30):
You know, we had had openly talked about Bubba's with
me on this on our desire to understand exotic pet people.
I don't get them, and I think they're a menace
to society. And I think this was their their their goal.
Their goal was to come out and win us over
to the exotic pet world. It did not go that way.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
I didn't realize Center.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
Was like a I didn't either, Barba.

Speaker 5 (53:48):
Greg din't either.

Speaker 4 (53:50):
Bubba kicks a woman and kills her snake. A cougar
attacks a dingo underneath the broadcast table. Listen, that story
may be better than and too fa pigs begin to
mate in the back of the truck.

Speaker 1 (54:03):
It was a terrible day. It really was, sir.

Speaker 5 (54:09):
When somebody screamed making bacon, that's.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Someone.

Speaker 4 (54:19):
It was awful.

Speaker 5 (54:21):
Listen, we're using We don't even have like a real table.
We got a card table and a dingo dog gets
tied around one leg and then this cougar gets up
under there and they're growling at each other, and we're trying.
We're on the air live on a two dogs, a
cougar and a dingo. Yeah, yeah, great. Pigs got Greg blown?

Speaker 3 (54:45):
Greg?

Speaker 4 (54:46):
How do you do that?

Speaker 3 (54:47):
Greg?

Speaker 5 (54:47):
I mean one that had the fat tail that was.

Speaker 4 (54:49):
That long, walking around with it on a leaf at
the huddle hot You think that m'd have been a
lot more scared of that than I had to. You
think nineteen years it's weird. You should been in early days.
It was real weird in the early days.

Speaker 5 (55:03):
You know how cat I'll rub up against your secret, Well,
