Speaker 1 (00:10):
Alisca, Welcome to Friday Show more than studio. All right,
let's go around the road and give me your bestest
news story. Let's go to Eddie first. Eddie, I am
shocked that this didn't make bigger news. But a Secret
Service agent that was watching over President Biden's granddaughter ended
up shooting his gun at some people that are trying
to break into a car. Wow, Like, I've never heard

(00:31):
of a Secret Service agent like actually happened to take action.
Whoa and with somebody else breaking into somebody else's car.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
It was a government car, one of their cars or whatever,
but no one was in it. They just saw that
these guys were breaking in there. He's like, hey, get
away from the car, and they started like there's a confrontation.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Papa got it.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
So they probably pulled a weapon, which made the Secret
Service guy pull a weapon to protect himself. I just
seeing someone breaking a car and he just starts firing out.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
No, I don't think so, but I mean it's still
it's crazy like secret Service agents. You just see him
like the hand of the ear, you know, sunglasses and
that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
That's crazy that they actually shot their weapon. I mean,
you would see secret service on the University of Texas
campus right, well at UH Austin in general.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
Yes, Well, when I was in high school and it
was Governor Bush and his daughters are at my high school,
they would secret service would sometimes be at high school, but.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
They would be like men in their forties but acting
like a high school kid. Hello, fellow kids.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
No, they would before they could drive, that's who would
drop them off at school.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
That'd be so cool.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
And then once the girls were able to drive, but
like if their dad was coming up to the high
school for something, they would be there with their little
ear pieces.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
And then yeah, later once they were in college and
he was actually president, you would see them.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Will they just be like standing outside protecting the dorm
at all times. That'd be so cool.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
Yeah, but you never get privacy.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
You don't even need a security system.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Who cares?

Speaker 4 (01:48):
I know? That was one thing I felt really bad
for them.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Would like privacy. I mean, there was a girl looking
in your bed, they're not You're not hooping and they're
watching you.

Speaker 5 (01:55):

who cares?

Speaker 1 (01:58):
They're not, they don't care. They're right, you know, they don't.

Speaker 6 (02:00):
They let him use a fake ID things like that.
There was a girl that used to work at our
radio station. She lived in an apartment, same one as
one of the Bush sisters in college. And someone was
breaking into a random apartment a bad idea. I guess
who's sitting outside? Secret service got him? Yeah, because they
were It wasn't They weren't bringing into her apartment, but
they were.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
They could have been breaking the department to get to her,
but they weren't. But they Yeah, all right.

first fifty people to buy his ticket.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
Well if you're looking for love, you may want to
consider a move to Seattle, because that is the place
for singles to find their soulmates. They put all this,
It's the top one. They based on economy, percentage of
population that is single, the number of online dating opportunities,
the average price for two people going out on a date.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
It's too far back in time zone.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
Oh well, Madison, Wisconsin isn't number two. Denver, Colorado three,
San Francisco four, and Portland, Oregon five.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Ooh yeah, Portland's cool, same time zone, but just feels different. Seeah,
it feels so isolated. I like it. It feels so isolated,
like you're just in a different country because you're just
so up there and back. Really cool city, but it
just feels like forever to get anywhere. Madison's Conferment, the shutout.
Yeah that Madison, Wisconsin. Finally, life expectancy for men in
the US falls to seventy three years, six years less

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Oh, because I thought we're seventy eight.

Speaker 1 (04:41):

some of them.

was seventy four and seventy three point two and now
it's just straight seventy three.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
So would you.

Speaker 6 (05:17):
Trade living in the United States I had to go
live in one of those countries.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
I've never lived in one of those countries. I'm gonna
say yes, I would. My answer is yes. And then
you hear about people in Sweden how happy they are all.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Yeah, so you'd rather live in another country if you're
gonna live longer.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
No, No, that's not what I said. I would have
lived here, but I've never lived in another place. To
even answer that question with any sort of intelligence or.

Speaker 6 (05:39):
Are people really HAPPI or do they just say that
to make everybody want to down business.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
A Sweden person never been to Sweden. So in Sweden
the life expect he's eighty three? Yeah, wow, solid they
must be really happy. We need to go to one
of those blue zones. I saw that.

Speaker 4 (05:53):

go with Dolly Partner. But Friday Morning conversation, it's Jolly Parton.

(07:33):
The songs that you chose to do because there are
just so many great songs in the world period.

Speaker 8 (07:38):
You chose some of my favorite songs of all time.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
And I was just talking to you about don't let
the song go down on me, Like, why did you
pick these songs specifically for this album?

Speaker 7 (07:46):
Well, I picked song that I love, and I picked
songs that my husband love because he's the real rock
and roller and he was a big inspiration for doing
the album. But I picked this Don't let song go
down on me because I love l John. I love
us singing, and I love his songs. And every time
we get together, we were always singing together and it
sounded good, and so I thought, well, I'm doing this

(08:07):
song on the album in hopes that he was singing
with me. So of course he said he would, and
so that this is a highlight on the album for me,
cause I love how he sound, and that's just such
a good song.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
The first time you guys sang together where how like
it's that's just such a you know, collision of awesomeness,
you know what we w The.

Speaker 7 (08:25):
First time we ever did sing together, we were uh
behind stage, actually he did. I did a song, made
the song Imagine years ago. I was on one of
my albums, and he sang it with me on the
CMA Awards. He played the piano and I singing, And
so backstage, though we were singing all these great old.

Speaker 8 (08:45):
Country songs, he knew them.

Speaker 7 (08:47):
He knew every country song in the world, those great
songs like behind Closed Doors, especially love that Make the
World Go Away and all that. So we'd start singing,
and we just sounded so good together, and we said,
you know what, we gotta do it album together someday,
and we never got around to that, and we're both
too overstarted now. But but I thought, when I did

(09:08):
this song, I'm gonna see if he'll sing it with me,
and he just was so nice, jumped right at the chance,
and I thought to turn.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Out pretty good with this album being a rock record,
and it's called rock Star. I'm friends with the president
of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and there
was we won Dolly, and then it was Dolly says
she's not.

Speaker 8 (09:27):
Not really deserving to be because she didn't do rock music.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
And then now, I mean, to me, the Rock and
Hall of Fame was just if you do awesome music,
like rock and roll is so just synonymous with great,
great music, it doesn't matter the format to me, how
much of that was true to where you were, like,
I just don't think I deserve to be in and
how much that was kind of.

Speaker 7 (09:44):
Made up of No, we were not made up because
I hate controversy of being any kind. I don't like
to be in anything that said they do this and
you know in a bad way. But when they said
they were gonna put me in the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame. I thought, why of rock and roll
Hall of Fame? Cause I know so many people like
meat Loaf and some of the greatest artists of all
times that you know almost uh to the point, you

(10:06):
know almost since they get almost bitter about the fact
that some of the greatest artists have never been in
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And I thought
that you voted on that, and I thought, I am
not taking votes away from people for them to put
me in the Hall of Fame just cause I was
having a hot streak at the time of other things,
and I didn't feel right about it, and so I said, no,

(10:29):
I didn't, I thought other people, cause I've spent my
life in country. The anything they give me in country,
I'll take it.

Speaker 8 (10:35):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (10:36):
Well, you know, I feel I don't feel I deserve
it because I've spent my life with that. But anyway,
when they explain what it was and that it's people's
music that's that's influenced other things, when I had a
better understanding, I understand more of why. But I just
didn't feel right about it still, So I'm like my
daddy I don't want nothing that's you know that I

(10:56):
don't earn. So when they put me in anyhow, I thought, well,
I'd always thought about doing a rock album. I thought
Thimmon's everything, and I ain't want to miss out on timing,
so I thought, well, I'm gonna do it. So I
naked it there that night. I said I want to
think about doing a rock and roll album. Any of
you want to join me? And a lot of them
did yeah, But no, it was sincere. I wasn't making
it up for attention.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Well but was this album really cause you've mentioned your
husband too being a big factor on the songs that
were picked for it. But was this album f did
it derive from you going? Well, now I got to
do a rock album.

Speaker 7 (11:28):
Kind of I felt like I needed to earn that title,
And now I feel like that this album is good enough.
Think of some of my best work. I chose great
song and I also chose great artists to sing with me,
And now I feel like I at least earned the
fact that I'm in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
And if somebody sees my name and say, oh yeah,
did you ever hear that rock?

Speaker 8 (11:47):
The Rock album? A rock star.

Speaker 7 (11:51):
And that was the title was just tongue in cheek.
I just kind of like, here, i am seventy seven
years old and I'm gonna be a rock star.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
You know.

Speaker 7 (11:59):
It was just I thought, long not, I'll leave that
from my legacy.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
What was the first track you cut, because that's the
at least the first one you knew you wanted to cut.

Speaker 7 (12:06):
Uh well, I think the first one I cut was
a song of mine cause I wanted to get comfortable.
It was more fla f country flavored. It was my
Blue Tears I did with Simon Levon. I wrote that
song when I was young kid, and I'd recorded a
couple of times, even within the trio album with Lindon
uh Emmy, and so I did that one just to

(12:29):
kind of get, you know, get my my stuff going.
And then we started cutting songs like Satisfaction. I think
that was the second one, and uh then we just
r really went on with some of those hard.

Speaker 8 (12:40):
Ass the real rock, right, real rock.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
What about Simon made you go to him first to say, hey,
do the song with me?

Speaker 8 (12:47):
I cause you wrote that by yourself, right.

Speaker 7 (12:48):
I wrote that by myself, and I wrote that years ago.
But I thought this song was so pretty and I
wanted to add more to it. But I was the
reason I picked Simon is because, uh, he was on
the rock. He went in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame with Deran Duran that night. Same night I did.
Same reason. I picked Pat Benatar and Rob Helford. You know,

(13:09):
they were all there that night and I got a
chance to talk to all of them, But that one,
I just thought it would make just a beautiful song.
I just pictured that song about going off to war,
you know, like all the war going on and the
you know that lovers and husbands going off to war,
and the girls singing, you know, my blue tears, and

(13:30):
I just pictured that as a movie theme almost, And
I just thought Simon's voice was so beautiful because it
was old world and I did some harmonies that old
world type harmonies with myself, but he's got that really
beautiful high pitched voice, and I thought he was perfect
An he was.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Whenever you're singing some of these songs that other artists
made famous. We talked about Elton John but Sting every
breath you take, Steve Perry Journey, open arms.

Speaker 8 (13:54):
Do you have pressure?

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Do you put it on yourself when you're singing a
song and then you're asking the original artist to get
on it with you.

Speaker 8 (13:59):
Is there a standard that has to hit before you'll
send it off?

Speaker 7 (14:01):
Well, you know what I I had. I talked about
this on different things. I hate to ask anybody to
do anything. I anybody asked me to sing on anything,
I nearly ninety nine percent of the time I will
And if it don't, it's just cause I can't make
the time to do it or or something. But I
just listened to the songs, and uh, I think who

(14:22):
would be great on it? I actually recorded the whole
album and had not thought of putting anybody on it.
Then after I got the album recorded, then I started thinking,
wouldn't it be great if I could get some of
these artists. So it was hard for me to ask
them cause I didn't. It wasn't that I thought they'd
say no so much as uh cause I know we're

(14:43):
professional and they would if they could, and you know,
they'd give me a good reason if they could just
make it sound right. Uh, But I just you know,
I just had trouble doing it. But I thought, well,
it'd be worth it, cause it'd be great if I'm
gonna do the rock album to really make it something special.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
So when you did it, Skeleton John, do you call him?
Do you text him? Do you send an email? Handwritten letter?

Speaker 7 (15:05):
Question? Did it ever? Which away? I mostly called the people,
you know. I wrote a note through my management because
my manager noted everybody else's manager, so we did a
lot of it through their managers, so I didn't have
to put myself nor them on a total spot. But
I wrote that. I wrote the note myself saying what
I wanted to say to them. Then I thought, well,

(15:27):
if they get back to me, they can just say
they can't or whatever, and they won't have to be
hit upside the head lead it. But they all came
back and are they called me. I left my number
so they could call me and or they could call
the office. You know, we're a country. We just do
what we do. But my heart was open to it
and to them, and I was really honored that so

(15:49):
many of them wanted to do it.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
I picture there's a meme or like a beautiful mind
where he's doing you know, there's connecting all the dots
and the ropes in that movie. You doing this with
songs and all these artist because it's so many great artists,
and you going, well, Debbie Harry sounds really good on
this one, but what if because she's so good?

Speaker 8 (16:07):
Like how did that process come?

Speaker 4 (16:08):
We?

Speaker 7 (16:08):
Well, actually, when I recorded all those songs, I thought
about all those people that were still living and still productive.
Some of them went and heard from in a long time,
you know, like Steve Perry, who was always one of
my favorite singers ever. And some people say I don't
think you'll get him because he doesn't work that much anymore,
and this and this and this. Well, when I got
in touch with him, he'd called me right back and

(16:31):
he said, I've been a fame for years. I used
to watch you on the Border Wagner Show, and my
family loved you, so I knew you. So they all
had their own kind of story and their same With
Rob Halford when we were standing there at the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame, he was saying how his
whole family grew up on my little color of many colors,
and he was naming songs down from Dover off of

(16:53):
albums that you'd have to really know my history and
know me to know some of the songs. And so
do we just made some We just made personal connections,
and then when I called about singing on it, they
were all.

Speaker 4 (17:08):
In, yeah, Well, so seventy nine ish albums, do you
know that's how many you've recorded. And we were looking
at that number, and I think even just contributed to
two thousand songs. So do you ever have times where
you're like, hmm.

Speaker 8 (17:26):
What are the lyrics to that song?

Speaker 4 (17:28):
Or anytime where you could you sing every song that
you know you.

Speaker 7 (17:32):
Own a part of. Well, I know the melody, you know,
like if I hear something, but I couldn't go out
and I couldn't take my guitar and sing. You know
a lot of those songs, I can the ones I
sang over and over on stage at night, but a
lot of times we have teleprompters anymore. The older you get,
the last memory you got. But you know, but I know,

(17:53):
I know the ones that I sang all the time,
like Joline and you know all those, but yeah, it's
not easy to remember all of them. Then there's sometimes
I'll think did I rap? You know, I'll hear I'll
see a title and I don't remember what that song is.

Speaker 8 (18:08):
Yeah, I was gonna ask.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
I feel like sometimes just in Kroger or something, and
you hear a song of you singing like, I don't
remember that song?

Speaker 7 (18:15):
Well I do, you know? I think I Sometimes I'll
hear something and I'll think, does that mean, yeah, that
my song? Or I'll think when I'm going through my stuff,
my catalogs, I'll see it. Or I mean if somebody
says something, I see a list of songs, I don't
remember what the lyrics are until I, you know, look
it up, and then I think, well, do I remember
what the tune is?

Speaker 4 (18:34):
Are you like, oh, dang, that's pretty good.

Speaker 7 (18:37):
I do that a lot, and then I'll think some
of them, no, that's not good. I know, well that
would never hit the book.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Behind the scenes, It's interesting to me because something that
you're so known for and celebrated for, we now understand
that as being normal.

Speaker 8 (18:51):
However, you're the one that had.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
To kind of create these these new highways people to
drive down, and I would assume that it always wasn't
so easy for people just celebrating you for your fashion.
People had to be like, wow, what is she wearing?
At times, Well, now again we look at it and go,
that's Dolly. She's set the standard for everybody else. But
when you're ground, when you're somebody's breaking around in new things,
there's a lot of criticism or there's a lot of

(19:15):
just judgment on you. Yeah, couldn't have been so easy
all the time.

Speaker 7 (19:19):
It wasn't, but I chose to be myself. Even still,
some things would embarrass me, something for hurt my feelings,
but not enough, she taught me, you know, because I
always just wore things that I was comfortable with. I
didn't have the money to be fashionable, you know, back
in the in the days, and but I just wore
what I was comfortable with while I felt fit my personality.

(19:41):
And it was a country girl's idea of glam, you know,
my backwoods barbie look, so to speak. But it really was,
you know, when I wrote the song backwards Barbie, you know,
it's like, I'm just a backwards Barbie. Too much makeup,
too much hair. But don't be food by thinking that
the goods are not all there, you know, don't let
these fots out last Lea. Did you believe that I'm
as silly as I look, because there's a lot to

(20:04):
me kind of ideas. But I just felt if I
had anything worth having people would see it in time.
If my songs werereth singing and recording, people would find
them in time. So I felt it was more important
that I please myself and that I'd be happy within myself,
and that I'd be mostly be comfortable in my own skin,

(20:26):
as I say, no matter how far I'm stretched or
but certainly I need to be comfortable in my own
clothes and in my own self. So if I'm comfortable,
everybody around me is comfortable.

Speaker 4 (20:38):
I love that you study that acknowledging that it hurt
your feelings, but we're gonna let it stop you. I
feel like with especially social media and just so many
ways for people to make contact with other people, like,
feelings are getting hurt often, especially like behind a keyboard.
And so what advice would you give to someone along
the same lines of like, if something does hurt your

(21:01):
feelings like cause I can imagine a lot of people
shut down after that, or they they use it as
an excuse to stop. Now, what would you encourage them
to do.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
That's a good, good deep thought you have there, But
it it still hurts no matter how big you get
in the business or how successful you are. I mean,
I uh, most writers are very sensitive anyway. You have
to live with your with your feelings and your heart
on your sleeve in order to be able to, you know,
to do things. So you just have to try to
forgive first of all, or just to try to look

(21:32):
over it and just say that is I cannot just
dwell on that. I got better things to do. That
was their opinion of me. That's not my opinion of me.
So you have to think about It's more important, uh,
what you think of you than it is what somebody
else thinks of me. That's what that old saying. I
guess it was Shakespeare or somebody said, to thine own

(21:53):
self be true. There's a lot to that statement if
you think about it. Cause if you're true to you
and you know who you are, you will rise a
book that hurt. It'll sting, you know, but you know,
but you still you can't let that cripple you in
any way. You just got to cry it out. Move on.

Speaker 8 (22:11):
Final question.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
I have Free Dolly, and the record's out today. The
book came out last month. I want to go back
to the Grand Ole Opry. You're thirteen or fourteen years old.
The first time you play it, do you have do
you have a memory of that? And then the tale
of the Three Standing Ovations? Can you remember them? I
just my first night have.

Speaker 8 (22:30):
Played the Operator. It's all a blur.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
When I was doing comedy the operat it's all a blur,
and I don't remember it that well. But can you
remember that, because that seems like such a big moment.

Speaker 7 (22:37):
Well, I remember even the very first time that I
sang on the radio when I was ten years old,
and that's when I got addicted to that feeling of
that audience. Who It gave me confidence and that same thing,
you know, it gives you confidence, It makes you feel
like you're doing something right. And I always say that
was a lot of that was not because I was good.

(22:57):
It was because I was young and cause I was
little back then. But that's just like a shot of adrenaline,
and that just gives you encouragement. That just gives you more,
you know, it's like fuel to the flame if as
they say. But I remember all of all of the
things the same thing, the same way I feel now
when I'm out there in the audience, I mean, and

(23:19):
with the audience out there when I'm out on stage. Now,
you never get over that feeling, cause it's like a
who you know, it's like a a great feeling. You
feel like you've done something right, you feel like you've
done something good. So you're proud of yourself, and you're
proud of them, you know, for making you feel good
and that you you feel like, well, they made me

(23:39):
believe that I've you know, that I'm worth what they've
paid to come to see me. Cause you know, the
fans are everything. We all wanna think we're good at
what we do. But if we didn't have that falling,
if we didn't have those people that believed in us
to the point of Bond Records and all that, we
wouldn't have them. So there's something to be said about
when people react in that way. It makes you feel good,

(24:03):
and it makes you feel proud, and it makes you
feel like that you've done something right and some good.

Speaker 8 (24:08):
The album is out today.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
It's Dolly and everybody else that's super famous but slightly
less famous to her, because nobody's more famous than you,
the Queen.

Speaker 8 (24:16):
You're the Queen.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Thirty songs, nine original tracks, and twenty one iconic rock anthems,
And I thought, I don't want to say iconic rock
anthems that might feel.

Speaker 8 (24:25):
But no, it's true. You picked the biggest I did.
I wanted you, weren't scared you songs with the.

Speaker 7 (24:31):
Best artist that I could find and help me out
on Andy. Behind the scenes was I don't think we
ever mentioned we did.

Speaker 8 (24:37):
Behind the scenes came out last month?

Speaker 7 (24:39):
Did Yeah, I didn't know if we had the tod
love you in ron Stones.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
And this is a subtitle I didn't get too yet,
but that's life in Ryanstones.

Speaker 8 (24:47):
You have a lot of rymes. It's your closet full.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
If you were to weigh all your clothes in your
main closet at home, pretty heavy.

Speaker 7 (24:52):
Oh good lord, Yeah yeah, I figure lift them even
singing them.

Speaker 4 (24:59):
I feel the character that you play in Steve Magdolia
is just real quick because that's one of my favorite movies.
It's top three of all time still Magdonia's pretty woman,
dirty dancing. Yes, and any of my friends I haven't
seen it. We sit down, we watch it. And Truvy,
I just didn't know if when you play a certain character,
what you learn from that character, and if there's anything

(25:21):
you remember learning from Truvy or a takeaway from that time.

Speaker 7 (25:27):
Well, I loved doing Truvie. But that was the easiest
thing I've ever done because I used to think that
if I hadn't been hadn't made it in the business,
i'd have been a beautician because I'd have had to
have had the makeup and the bleach and all that.
I'd have had to got a discount on that somewhere,
so I would have become I would have become Amautaian sincerely.
So when Teasing came out, and I've often talked about it,

(25:49):
I was doing not only my hair, but my girlfriend's hair,
and even after I became a star, a semi star
and was doing specials, had my family, I'd do my hair,
Mama Alma hair, my sister's hair, and so I would
have been a bruticious So on that particular show, I
really felt like that was about the easiest thing I'd
ever done because I felt comfort in that beauty shop.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, thank you, You're the best. So behind the scenes
my life in Ryan Stones. It's the book that's been
out for three weeks or so, and then the album
rock Star, which we were playing songs from for the
past couple of months as well.

Speaker 8 (26:23):
Thank you, Dolly all, thank you.

Speaker 7 (26:24):
Well, I'm honored to be with you anytime. You always
a doll. She makes you look good.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
A pile of stories.

Speaker 4 (26:39):
Intersection takeovers are now a thing.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
All this is so stupid.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Yeah, well yeah, but the more it gets posted about
on social media and more people are like, oh, I
can get a little notoriety here.

Speaker 5 (26:49):
We're given.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
Well I'm going to tell you you're also going to
get arrested.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Go ahead, everybody, right.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
Uh yeah you So in the intersection, cars just start
to go into circles and cause major traffic situation.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
If you get enough cars that are driving in circles,
basically you're trying to stop traffic.

Speaker 5 (27:09):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
Yeah, and they call it an intersection takeover. No one
can go any which direction because you've got a group
of people speeding around in these circles and.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Police wreck into them coming through the light.

Speaker 5 (27:22):
Well, no they don't go.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Nobody's going.

Speaker 5 (27:25):
No one's going because there's cars doing circles.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
Man.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Interesting, Yeah, So are they friends that do it or like,
does random.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
Kind of have to do it?

Speaker 3 (27:32):
It's it's a group.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah, it's like you plan it. It's a dangerous flash mob.
Get you put in jail.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
You definitely know them. You don't recruit people on the spot.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Like, hey, I would rather like hold hands across a
line or something with like a sign In the intersection
it said, like mister Boby Alma's following on Instagram. Then
do a car in circles.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
But what if nobody sees you, They will just crashed
into the line.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
They will. It's red Rover, Okay, but yes it's dumb.
Don't do it, everybody, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Don't do it. You're putting lives at risk. It's the
whole thing. So yeah, Intersection takeovers. A woman quit practicing
law because she realized she was a pet psychic and
she can make.

Speaker 8 (28:10):
Way more money.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
What she realized was she can make way more money
acting like a pet psychic.

Speaker 4 (28:16):
No, yes, she found her passion talking to animals.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Found her passion milking people for money.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
She gets about three hundred and fifty dollars for one
animal psychic session.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
And crazy people will pay for anything.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Even more stupid.

Speaker 5 (28:28):
That's because so stupid she.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Says what she tells you, what the animals see.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
How do we know? Though, she's not a psychic. But
I just I'm going to bet the odds. I'm a
big betting guy. DraftKings has their odds of not being
real like minus twelve thousand.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
And she talked to living animals or can she talk
to dead ones?

Speaker 5 (28:43):
Too?

Speaker 3 (28:44):
Awesome?

Speaker 1 (28:45):
She paid versatile.

Speaker 6 (28:46):
She lives in the obituaries, finds dead dogs, calls the
people like, hey, I can talk to your dog.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Not only that, she could probably talk to dogs that
haven't been born yet.

Speaker 5 (28:54):
Oh man, that's that's special.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, what talk.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
To dogs that haven't even been born yet?

Speaker 1 (29:00):
You can lie about everything else. I talked to cows too,
matter of fact, the cow last night.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
What they said, right, I talked to I've talked to
two different pet psychics, one for my dog and one
for my cat.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
You gave them money.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
I gave him money.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
She brought me a psychic reading from a pet psychic once.

Speaker 7 (29:18):
Yeah, did you ever do it?

Speaker 8 (29:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (29:19):
And then person's like your dog likes to drool.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Your dog likes to your dog likes food, your dog's tired,
wants take a nap.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
Hey, look, yeah I did do it.

Speaker 7 (29:32):
You did?

Speaker 8 (29:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Because I remember thinking the whole time this is very
generic stuff. However, people will pay good money for this.
You can't prove she's not so good for her. I
guess as long as she's not like milking old people.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
Oh, she's finding the old people that like.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, she's not taking finding vulnerable people and she's just
finding weird Oh I'm okay with going after weirdos, but
not vulnerable. Okay, that's yeah, that's tough, all right. She
makes a thousand bucks a year, basically, that's what this said.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
Yeah, just for being a pet psychic.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
I'll you have to do.

Speaker 5 (30:06):
Make it up.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
I know I can talk any pet. You guys have
no idea. I'm a cat psychic, really, dud. I just
found out last time in my passion. If anybody who
needs talks to their cat, let me know. IM prove
I'm not okay, thank you.

Speaker 4 (30:19):
A recent study reveals that a lot of men let
their wives win in competitions, and they're doing it for
a specific reason.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
Oh, oh, to make her happy. Well, they said it.

Speaker 4 (30:29):
That's funny for wives and girlfriends. The guys do it
to avoid conflict and prevent them from leaving or being
poached by another male.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
If my wife caught me letting her win things, she
might leave me and go poach another male. Oh, we
have a pretty competitive household and my wife's a better
athlete than I am, and so that's annoying to me. However,
I don't have to let her win because she just
wins stuff. It sucks.

Speaker 4 (30:53):
But like usin, y'all are both competitive. Do y'all have
moments where yes.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
But she is the bigger person and she's like, I'm
not doing this. It's running our day. Yes, okay, yes,
we don't get into big fights. I will fight, I'll
drag it on for a month. But she's like, what
are we doing?

Speaker 8 (31:05):
Well?

Speaker 3 (31:05):
So can I ask you this?

Speaker 4 (31:06):
Do you think Caitlin ever lets you win to avoid
uh like the reverse of.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
This probably good question to avoid conflict, probably, But she
competes hard. I think the only time she would ever
do that is if she knows if we've been at
it for a long time there's been no winner. I
think she would probably be like, I'm just gonna let
him win. I don't she would never do it to
begin with. But we used to play this game during
the pandemic. When she acts like she like PlayStation, we
just to play where the cars would get the ball.
Well there was nothing to do. Rocket League. Yeah, we

(31:32):
play Rocket League and we play like there's nothing to do.
So we I've worked from the house and mess around
and play Rocket League. And then I got I started
to get really good and I started to beat her.
She's like, oh, you're just too good. Now I don't
want to play anymore. What I think she was letting
me win to have play anymore.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
For sure. That was Amy's pile of stories.

Speaker 8 (31:52):
It's time for the good news.

Speaker 7 (31:53):
How much.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
Tyrese Maxie plays in the NBA for the Philadelphia seventy
six ers, and last Thanksgiving he wanted to give back,
so through his charitable organizations, he gave out three hundred
turkeys to families in need.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
He's like, man, we can do better than that. We
can make it bigger, we can make it better.

Speaker 6 (32:14):
This year he held a little event with music, party, prizes, food,
and handed out one thousand turkeys to different families.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
He did a lot better and that's cool. And like
he's like becoming a star now too. He's a Kentucky guy, right.
He played for Kentucky a lot of times too. When
they become the big stars, don't do as much because
like he's that guy. I mean him an EMBIID. That's awesome.
Good for him. A thousand turkeys.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
The oh they had food, music, and prizes. I mean,
I wonder what the prizes were.

Speaker 6 (32:44):
Jerseys, Yeah, that'd be cool shoes, Like if you're giving
away a thousand turkeys, what else get the prize? Me?

Speaker 3 (32:50):
You get a car, you get a house.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
You get I know we shouldn't do that, but yeah,
but no, probably would have been on the story. Good
for him, Tyre's nax A great job. Way to give back.
That is what it's all about.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
That will tell me something good.
