Speaker 1 (01:18):
What about that flagpole you put up? Did you ever
had that ever? Turn out with a neighborhood association.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
They've begged me not to talk about that.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
But I'm gone, I'm going on.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Is it still up? No? Ho oh, you took it
that one? Talk about it. They made you take a
flagpole down and run American flag. You can't do that
in your neighborhood. Fantasious in here.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Right after September eleventh, I went out and bought a
nice white aluminum flagpole, a big.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
Tall one and stick in the ground.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Yeah, oh yeah, everyal one.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
That's not one that you stick over the front door.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
It's like raise it with ropes and everything.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
So is one over the front door? I guess that's
all right. You can hang one off your house, just.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
To the houses.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Okay, But I erected a poll and that's not that's
not acceptable because it's considered at.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
These neighborhood associations down here. We got to give the
Yankees something to do. Sound like Yankees to me? It
sound like you're living in Comedyville. Oh no, These neighborhood
associations all pillars. You wouldn't last. And you know, I
believe I believe I'd have a head count before I
left the neighborhood. I couldn't do that.

Somebody complained, and so.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Somebody body can play. That's what they do. They down

You can't have a back of your backboard for your
basketball go in your yard has to be clear excuse
oh yeah, oh no.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
You you have to be able to see through that
back because that makes it invisible.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
What color socks can you wear over that neighborhood?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Maybe if I got a loose sight flag pole, they'd
be okay with it.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
But now the guy that actually the president actually called,
sent me a couple of letters and then finally just
called and said, look, I feel really bad about this,
he said, but I have to ask you to take
it down.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
He felt bad about it.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I'm sure I thought it waiting right up to the
day before the fine would start.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
So how tall was this? How tall is this pole?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's probably twenty five feet. I mean, you know, we
got a tall front front of the house.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Really too tall.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
So but you're not talking about putting the flag out
like the big one they have out in front of
the gast.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
No, no, it was a standard flag, but on a
We don't want to upset the jackasses next door.

people's asses. I found out who can play Feller's got
like forty dogs, fifteen cats, eight horses. Well you need
your room?
Speaker 6 (03:55):
Told me to take my flag?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Well, oh they did. I'll tell you what about the
time I can afford the granite to build a fifty
foot wall around my property, I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Well.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
The downside is that if you don't, they you're they're
perfectly within their rights to find you. And then if
you don't pay the fines, they will continue to accumulate,
and then they'll foreclose on your house for.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Clothes they certainly have. Oh I know, it's me hot.
That's why I just try not pay any attention. What huh?
There you go. That's the idea you have morning, A
(04:53):
big show is on the radio, about a quarter away
from the hour coming up on Randy Riddling brand log Gum.
Get to spend some time with the in this year,
Look pard at that right now, it's time.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Welcome to John Boy and Billy Playhouse. Today's episode, A
nun gets into a cab. As our story opens, A
nun gets into a cab. How's it going, mac, Good
evening to you, my son?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oh, evening there, sister. Oh where to fifty six eight
brushywood dry? You got it? Having Aaron a jiffy beautiful evening?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Huh.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Oh, it certainly is. Usually by this time of the year,
i'd be all bunded up in my heavy warm coat.
I'll be turning quite a bit cooler by this time.
Next week, of course, it's coming upon Thanksgiving, so I
guess it'll be about time for some autumn weather. Are
you all right, my son?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
M oh, yeah, I'm fine.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Well, you just seem a little distracted. Actually, you seem
a lot distracted. You ain't quite stared at me in
the rear view since I sat down here.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, sorry, sister, is just well, never mind, Oh, it's
just well, I'm not sure I know how to put this.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
What because I'm a nun. Don't be ridiculous, please unmurder yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Well, okay, ever since I was a little boy, I've
had this thing like about nuns. I don't know what
it is. I find nuns incredibly sexy.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
Is that a fact?
Speaker 5 (06:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Every time I see a nun, I just want to
walk up to her and grab her and give her
a great big kiss. Wood Do tell yeah, I does
that mean something's wrong with me? Not at all.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
You see, a nun represents an authority figure, kind of
like a parent. Maybe you just protected your natural feelings
of affection on another kind of authority figure. It's a
natural part of growing immaturity.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Romantically speaking, Gee, I never thought of that.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Oh yeah, it happens all the time. So would you
like to do it?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Do what? I give you a great big kiss? You kidding?
Speaker 7 (06:53):
Why not? Romance is a natural part of life. It
might help you make the transition.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Well, gee, that'd be great.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
We'll pull over to the curb and come back here.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
The cabby pulls over and quickly climbs into the back
seat of the taxia, which apparently could use.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
A break joke. Man, look at me, I'm shaking like
a leaf.
Speaker 7 (07:18):
Oh, calm down, sonny, like the fella in the movie says,
a kiss is just a kiss. Now, there's one thing
before we get started. You are Catholic, aren't you?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Oh? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (07:28):
Sure, Well then bla a big one right here on
my lips. M sorry about slipping you the tongue there.
I kind of got carried away myself. So then, how
do you feel better?
Speaker 5 (07:48):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
I feel even worse. Why, sister, I lied to you. You see,
I'm not really Catholic. My name is Stanley Koklockolitz. I'm Jewish.
Well that's okay. I'm not earlier none. My name's Larry,
and I'm on my way to a costume party.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
We hope you've enjoyed John boyd Billy Playhouse. Tune in

old psychiatrist. See, hey, big man, let me hold a dollar, Numbia.

Listening to John Boy Billy on the Big Show is
low in fact and high and fun. And who the
hell can't get behind that old Patrick? If time for
my spongebat.
Speaker 8 (08:53):
Whoa good morning the Big Shows.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
On the radio. Welcome Randy Redlight Buddy, Operation Christmas Child
in here and effectually call Mama gum, Hey Mary, how
you doing this? Morning, Good morning. Hey you guys doing
this morning, doing good, doing good. Good to see you
in person, and good to see you again.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
It's good to be here.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
You know, tell the nickname Mama Gum because I mean
we're had a at a. West Virginia started Operation Christmas
Child with a filming the shoe boxes, and uh, you've
met everybody that we know of.
Speaker 9 (09:56):
You know, Mary's just come off of a twenty three
state tour promote Operation Christmas Child.
Speaker 10 (10:01):
Yeah, but you guys are my favorites.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
So Mary, how did you get started? Just with the
shoe boxes that you're in your home in West Virginia right?
Speaker 10 (10:11):
Well, you know, the war was going on in Bosnia
in nineteen ninety four. It was real hot and just
watching the children going through pain, living in fear of
death every single day, and it just bothered me and
I started praying.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I asked God to please.
Speaker 10 (10:25):
Do something, you know, I wanted God to just reach
down and just do something for these children. And I
prayed that for about four months, and on this particular day,
I was down on my knees praying and the Lord said,
you do something, and that was just powerful to me.
About five minutes after that I saw Franklin Graham, but
I didn't know he was Billy Graham's son. It was
just a man on TV. And I heard him say
(10:47):
the word Bosnia, and I said, you know, it's no coincidence.
I'm praying for Bosnia, and you know, Lord tells me
to do something. So I caught about five minutes of
his program. So I went around to all of my neighbors,
and in thirteen days, my neighbors brought to my home
one thy two hundred and fifty eight shoebox, a man
thirteen nuyes.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Wow.
Speaker 10 (11:06):
And to be honest with you, these people are they
live in poverty areas. You know, they don't have much
their self. You've seen us on TV. You know they
bring food into us ever now and.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Now that was like.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
My people where we're from.
Speaker 10 (11:20):
The first thing that come to my mind is you
don't have no way to get him. You don't even
know where this man lives. You know, he could be
in another country somewhere. So about an hour after I
was worried about how I was going to get him there,
this woman called me and she said, are you the
shoe box lady. I'd never heard that phase before. I said, well,
yet you can call me that. And she said, could
you use the truck? And I said, yes, ma'am, I could.
(11:41):
I me and the Lord was just now talking about
that you're an answer to prayer. So this lady shows
up with this big truck, and first of all she
asked me, she said, can you drive it? Because so
I'm thinking real fast, And I said, no, I can't.
I said, but my son can't. Now, my son at
the time was eighteen years old. He never stepped in
one before in his lifetime. And he's looking at me
big eyed, and I kind of cover the phone. I said,
(12:01):
by the grace of God, you'll get there. He will
cheat you on the way, but you'll drive that you.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Oh yeah, oh wow.
Speaker 10 (12:09):
Oh my son actually learned how to do that on
the way. He really really did.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
Wow.
Speaker 9 (12:13):
And Samaritans purse is not condoned an eighteen wheeler without
a license.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Exactly. But he had no license, no nothing.
Speaker 10 (12:23):
But we took the back road, you know, and kind
of figure out where Franklin Graham was at. And I
remember the word Samaritan's purse and how i'd heard that before,
and I remembered eight years before that I had made
a five dollars sacrificial donation to Samaritan's Purse. So we
went to digging through everything and found an address. Well,
we went down to the filling station, borrowed some map
(12:43):
and looked on it and routed it out Boom, North Carolina,
and we headed out and hit the rough.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Wow, that's how it happened.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
And she shows up at Samaritan's Purse with an eighteen
wheeler full of shoe boxes on Thanksgiving Day.
Speaker 10 (12:54):
Right, and of course nobody's there. So we spent the
night in the truck with You know, one thing I learned,
John Moore, you don't go and visit Franklin Graham when
you've spent the night in a truck with a dog,
no way to bath, no nothing.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
You know, you kind of looked spooky to it.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
But anyway, come.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, the desk.
Speaker 10 (13:21):
It was so funny though, And honest I had hardly
been fifty miles from my home, and I didn't know
there was people that you couldn't just walk up and
say I want to talk to. I went up to
the desk and I told the lady, I said I'd
like to see Franklin Graham. She said, you'd like to walk.
She kind of give me that deer in the headlight
looking and I said, I'd like to see Franklin Graham
and she said, well, ma'am, he's not here. And I
said where is he? And she said, well, he's home.
(13:46):
And I said, well, has he got a telephone number?
And she's still kind of looking at me, and I said, look,
I said, I've come on a mission for God. I
know what God has told me to do. I said,
I'd like to speak to Franklin Graham. So she gets
him on the phone because I'm not going anywhere. I
made that play and I'm standing right here to see
the man of.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
God told me to see.
Speaker 10 (14:04):
And at Franklin Graham's coming down through there when I
seen him pulling up and I kind of looked at
him and all this kind of embarrassing, But I said,
you know, you gonna think this is funny. I said,
your last name being Graham, I said, you look so
much like that famous preacher name.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
That's a great story, as is biracial too. Man.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
Well, since then, Mary's been on the road. She's been
to almost all fifty states. She's traveled around the world
promoting Operation Christmas Child, a great example that anyone can
participate in this project. And now is the time. Collection

you a chance to join the winners. Here we got
a free membership to the Big Show. Now check it
out at the Big Show dot Com with all you get. Also,
(15:27):
we got a PAP's blue ribbon erasing prize package, we
cooled T shirt and hat. You see this? Watching contestants
eat Dead Rats on NBC's gross out stunt show Fear
Factor so disgusted a Cleveland man that he sued NBC
or two point five million dollars, saying he could not
(15:48):
stomach what he saw. Man in a handwritten four page
lawsuit filed in federal court Fair Legal, Austin Atkins said
to have the individuals on the show eat and drink
Dead Rats was crazy and from a viewer's point of view,
made me throw up, as well as another in the
house at the same time.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Has he never seen fear Factor?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
His suit added, NBC a is sending the wrong message
to its TV watchers that cash can make or have
people do just about anything beyond reasoning and in most
cases against their will.
Speaker 6 (16:21):
Well, you can't say he didn't understand the message of
the show.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
He said. The show causes blood pressure to rise so
high that he became dizzy and lightheaded, and when he
ran away to his room, he bumped his head in
a doorway. So he's running from the TV man he
bumps his head on a doorway in a brief telephone
interview I Hadkins said, I'm not at liberty to discuss
the complaint unless it is a paid interview situation. A
(16:47):
supposement for fear factors of the show would have no comment.
Remember we had the taste tester for fear factor on
the Big Show and at Appeerly in Texas, Susan and
Stephen Manis it was their fault their daughter was late
for school, so they shared her punishment spent an hour
with her in detention. Couple says their thirteen year old daughter, Jessica,
(17:09):
was being unfairly punished for being late six times in October.
In November when the family's van wouldn't start, so when
administrator's assisted, the Pierland Junior High School seventh grader would
have to spend an hour in detention, they decided to
go with her. Thanks a lot, Mom and Dad, that'll am.
During the hour of detention, the trio copy two pages
from a school handbook about good citizenship.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
Oh joy, I'm sure that didn't make it seem longer
for her at all.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Pennsylvania Boy thirteen scores perfect sixteen hundred on the SAT
their ten year boy standardized tests used to given a
college bound high school seniors. I was pretty surprised and happy,
said Lee Kennedy Schaefer, in eighth grader at Mechanicsburg Middle School.
I did not think I would score that high. He
got the perfect score for a test he took in December.
He wouldn't the first in his family to get a
(17:55):
perfect score, all right. See in June two thousand and three,
his brother Row scored sixteen hundred as a junior in
high school. My brother Hallah had fifteen twenty. It might
be genetics. That's why I chose not to study early
in my school. Hey, god, there's no sense punching.

you up.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
All right, it's your first time calling.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Is my birthday? Soutack?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Hey man, birthday, birthday James with Spartanburg. Alright, Dan, hang
on our classic bit of the morning. It's coming up
next you by coming good morning. You got a big
showing a radiover this morning, this real early this morning
at the Jars in my memory for our classic requested
bit of the morning where you can request yours at
(28:09):
the big Show dot com is probably east way to
do that. The singer formerly known as Kat Stevens is
still barred from entering the United States because of terror
intelligence that identifies him as a security threat, or at.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
Least that's what we're telling him.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Usef Islam, the peace trained singer who largely gave up
music after conferring to Islam in the late nineteen seventies.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
Yeah, that new name he picked is probably not helping much,
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Remember we were all for it back then. Yousef was
removed from a London to Washington fly cause of suspected
links to terrorists, the claim he has strongly denied. He's
still out. Mad Max is still in and he's coming
up next. Good in the morning. It's a big show
(29:18):
on already, old tell me every question. But in the morning. Yeah,
Eddie Lawson out of Tulsa, Oklahoma, we hit a mad
Max deal. Kad he can go with it.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Y'm boing villy, Mad Max, her Max?
Speaker 1 (29:33):
How you doing?
Speaker 5 (29:34):
How you think I'm doing mad mad, I'm plump, pixelated,
I'm all hot about how we're fighting this war on terror. Hey,
did you hear about our latest victory. We caught Cat Stevens.
Turns out he wasn't being followed by Moonshadow after all,
it was an air marshal. In case you missed it,
(29:56):
Cat Stevens was on this plane flying from London to
Washington and his name showed up on the Big Tearer
alert list. Of course he didn't say Cat Stevens because
when old Cat went Muslim, he changed his name to
Yousef Islam. That's right, Islam. Gee, you think cat might
be what got him read flag? Call me crazy, But
(30:20):
if you're wearing a beard and a bowl haircut, you're
on a plane to Washington, d C. And your name
is mister Islam, you're going to attack some attentions. So
they called on the radio and the plane did an
emergency landing in Bangor, Maine, which if you're trying to
neutralize a Muslim, that's probably a good place to do it.
(30:43):
Mister Islam appealed for help from the local Muslim community.
Unfortunately the guy was out of town. Road ain't send
him back to London. Now you see in the world
of international tearor I doubt Cat Stevens is real high
up on the chain of command. Remember that deck of
playing cards with the most wanted on it hit be
(31:03):
like the two of clubs. And here's what gets me.
If they did think he was a terrorist, how come
they let him on the plane in the first place?
My butt, that's what's wrong with how we're fighting this
war on terror. At the airport, you got mister Islam
breezing right through security check, no problem. Meanwhile they're strip
(31:26):
searching the eight year old kid of eighty eight year
old grandmaa fat dude and a hearn Hart Forever t shirt.
You know why, so they won't get in trouble for
profiling people, which means they're allowed to hassle everybody but
the terrorists. Because the last thing you want when you're
trying to find an anti American suicide bombers for somebody
(31:49):
to accuse you of being insensitive, my big old American fuck.
I actually met a Muslim feller the other day down
at the DNV getting license renewed. Since I had about
seven or eight hours to kill me and him got
to talk and he give me this little paperback book
called A Brief God to Understanding Islam. I guess Muslims
(32:13):
for Dummies was already take you anyway. It's had a
chapter in it called what does Islam think about Terrorism?
Now here's what it says. I ain't making this up.
Islam does not permit terrorism. Muslims believe in peace, mercy
and forgiveness, and the vast majority have nothing to do
(32:34):
with the violent events that some have associated with Muslims.
I say, really, then, where in the world do we
get such a crazy idea? Could it be from watching
the nightly news for the last thirty years. That's when
all I have started showing me a bunch of verses
from the coup Ran like the merciful are shown mercy
(32:56):
by the all merciful, show mercy to those on earth,
and God will show mercy to you. I say, partner,
that all sounds good on paper. Problem is seems like
an awful lot of your people never got the memo
on this piece hur saying forgiveness stuff. Hey, I got
an idea. Maybe I should have given this book to
folks like me. You are to be passing out a
(33:18):
few copies over in the middle Age. I never got
a chance to hear what he had to say to
the acles. Right about then, that fat girl from the
DNV finally called his name. Some things are way more
important than religion. Oh and by the way, when they
busted Cat Stevens, you know where he was going. He
was catching a second plane to a recorded session in Nashville,
(33:42):
So he didn't actually have a bomb, but he was
getting ready to start working on this job. God, gom on, Billy,
y'all have a nice day.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
The nerve racking like playing cards with my brother's kids
over here. Friday is gonna be really good. Yes, it's
the big show. I'm just gonna go with.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
I drank that that Coca cola too fastest, but I
think I'm gonna I'll find I want you to you
want to do it, I'll tell you that enough.
Speaker 6 (34:48):
What if me and some of the boys is to
shoot that producer dead for you?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
That cheer you up at my Hell, let's see, I've
been going through email letters. Yes, yes, let me say
down a couple morning I might be called up. Maybe
that's what it is. I can't do everything with somebody
do something around here. The last one I'm just going
(35:12):
ignore you from now and so have you a little
fun with a little bodily function buttons over there, and
go back to that house I built you. You think
about it this weekend that now.

a factory trained mechanic with thirty five years of multi
line experience, also as an independent shop owner with professional
dirt track racing dad my resume. With all this life experience,
I feel I'm qualified for a position of this nature.
I'm pitching this proposal to other radio stations, but you
(36:30):
would be my first choice. I like your loose format. Thanks.
By the way, I wrote a screenplay with Billy Bob
Thornton in mind. Oh okay, help me sell it and
I'll cut you in gotta run. I'm on my way
to test an unintentional fuel additive on my four wheeler.
Now that we've pulled it from the sour mash pond.
(37:00):
See you feel all better now, aren't you? Looking back.
I don't think he'd liked me that much. I think
he was trying to use me. I've had enough fat
feeling today. Let's go for a better feeling, John Boy.
My name is Joe Hamms and I'm a senior at
North Mecklenburg High School, North Carolina. Ever since I was
a little boy listening to you down to Monroe, North Carolina,
(37:20):
I've always wanted to do what you do. I'm now
trying to go to college for it, radio broadcasting, that is.
But right now I'm a senior and I have a
project called the Senior Exit, and my topic I chose
was to prove how music controls the mood you were in. Well,
since you're in a broadcasting booth most of the day,
I was wondering if you or maybe even Randy would
(37:42):
let me interview them for my project grade. It would
do me a world little good. Thanks for the time,
and please respond, y'all. Keep them straight up there, Joe, Joe,
you see, I don't even have enough him to give
you sound. Oh, come on, give him something.
Speaker 11 (38:01):
He's I've got some advice for him. Yes, don't do it, Joe,
you're not. The radio business is not for you, Joe,
really not for anyone.
Speaker 6 (38:17):
Move into your parents' basement.
Speaker 11 (38:19):
That's right. Go get a business degree and make some
money when you get out of college.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Steve coming out the booth and helping out, Thank you, buddy.
Oh you're welcome. I'm here for you. John from now,

Speaker 1 (38:41):

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Good Martin. The Big Show is on the radio. On
Fantasia is talking about Randy's neighbor like a hair about that.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
She's in our neighborhood association.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Let's fan one's Americans Island moves on up to Randy's neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I don't want to complaints. I'm not the fastest of
getting my garbage can back in off the curve.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
What about that flagpole you put up? Did you ever
had that ever? Turn out with a neighborhood association.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
They've begged me not to talk about that.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
But I'm gone, I'm going on.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Is it still up? No? Ho oh, you took it
that one? Talk about it. They made you take a
flagpole down and run American flag. You can't do that
in your neighborhood. Fantasious in here.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Well, actually, I.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Mean that's not her fault. I was just throwing that
in trying to be funny. Where do you live Russia? Randy?
Speaker 5 (01:39):
It was?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
It wasn't It was a flag of a Teddy Bear,
but they.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Flag.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I believe not only had you take it down, I
believe I had a whooped jass.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Right after September eleventh, I went out and bought a
nice white aluminum flagpole, a big.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
Tall one and stick in the ground.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Yeah, oh yeah, everyal one.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
That's not one that you stick over the front door.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
It's like raise it with ropes and everything.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
So is one over the front door? I guess that's
all right. You can hang one off your house, just.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
To the houses.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Okay, But I erected a poll and that's not that's
not acceptable because it's considered at.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
These neighborhood associations down here. We got to give the
Yankees something to do. Sound like Yankees to me? It
sound like you're living in Comedyville. Oh no, These neighborhood
associations all pillars. You wouldn't last. And you know, I
believe I believe I'd have a head count before I
left the neighborhood. I couldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Somebody complained, and so.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Somebody body can play. That's what they do. They down
here and they joined the neighborhood Association and.
Speaker 6 (02:41):
It's welcome to Westerly Hills.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Smack. Now let you yeah, oh, I went to all that.
You can't have a back of your backboard for your
basketball go in your yard has to be clear excuse
oh yeah, oh no.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
You you have to be able to see through that
back because that makes it invisible.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
What color socks can you wear over that neighborhood?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Maybe if I got a loose sight flag pole, they'd
be okay with it.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
But now the guy that actually the president actually called,
sent me a couple of letters and then finally just
called and said, look, I feel really bad about this,
he said, but I have to ask you to take
it down.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
He felt bad about it.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I'm sure I thought it waiting right up to the
day before the fine would start.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
So how tall was this? How tall is this pole?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's probably twenty five feet. I mean, you know, we
got a tall front front of the house.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Really too tall.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
So but you're not talking about putting the flag out
like the big one they have out in front of
the gast.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
No, no, it was a standard flag, but on a
We don't want to upset the jackasses next door.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
No, no, no, not my next.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
She wouldn't last. He would the door to door whipping
people's asses. I found out who can play Feller's got
like forty dogs, fifteen cats, eight horses. Well you need
your room?
Speaker 6 (03:55):
Told me to take my flag?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Well, oh they did. I'll tell you what about the
time I can afford the granite to build a fifty
foot wall around my property, I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Well.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
The downside is that if you don't, they you're they're
perfectly within their rights to find you. And then if
you don't pay the fines, they will continue to accumulate,
and then they'll foreclose on your house for.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Clothes they certainly have. Oh I know, it's me hot.
That's why I just try not pay any attention. What huh?
There you go. That's the idea you have morning, A
(04:53):
big show is on the radio, about a quarter away
from the hour coming up on Randy Riddling brand log Gum.
Get to spend some time with the in this year,
Look pard at that right now, it's time.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Welcome to John Boy and Billy Playhouse. Today's episode, A
nun gets into a cab. As our story opens, A
nun gets into a cab. How's it going, mac, Good
evening to you, my son?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oh, evening there, sister. Oh where to fifty six eight
brushywood dry? You got it? Having Aaron a jiffy beautiful evening?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Huh.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Oh, it certainly is. Usually by this time of the year,
i'd be all bunded up in my heavy warm coat.
I'll be turning quite a bit cooler by this time.
Next week, of course, it's coming upon Thanksgiving, so I
guess it'll be about time for some autumn weather. Are
you all right, my son?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
M oh, yeah, I'm fine.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Well, you just seem a little distracted. Actually, you seem
a lot distracted. You ain't quite stared at me in
the rear view since I sat down here.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, sorry, sister, is just well, never mind, Oh, it's
just well, I'm not sure I know how to put this.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
What because I'm a nun. Don't be ridiculous, please unmurder yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Well, okay, ever since I was a little boy, I've
had this thing like about nuns. I don't know what
it is. I find nuns incredibly sexy.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
Is that a fact?
Speaker 5 (06:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Every time I see a nun, I just want to
walk up to her and grab her and give her
a great big kiss. Wood Do tell yeah, I does
that mean something's wrong with me? Not at all.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
You see, a nun represents an authority figure, kind of
like a parent. Maybe you just protected your natural feelings
of affection on another kind of authority figure. It's a
natural part of growing immaturity.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Romantically speaking, Gee, I never thought of that.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Oh yeah, it happens all the time. So would you
like to do it?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Do what? I give you a great big kiss? You kidding?
Speaker 7 (06:53):
Why not? Romance is a natural part of life. It
might help you make the transition.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Well, gee, that'd be great.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
We'll pull over to the curb and come back here.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
The cabby pulls over and quickly climbs into the back
seat of the taxia, which apparently could use.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
A break joke. Man, look at me, I'm shaking like
a leaf.
Speaker 7 (07:18):
Oh, calm down, sonny, like the fella in the movie says,
a kiss is just a kiss. Now, there's one thing
before we get started. You are Catholic, aren't you?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Oh? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (07:28):
Sure, Well then bla a big one right here on
my lips. M sorry about slipping you the tongue there.
I kind of got carried away myself. So then, how
do you feel better?
Speaker 5 (07:48):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
I feel even worse. Why, sister, I lied to you. You see,
I'm not really Catholic. My name is Stanley Koklockolitz. I'm Jewish.
Well that's okay. I'm not earlier none. My name's Larry,
and I'm on my way to a costume party.

So Mary, how did you get started? Just with the
shoe boxes that you're in your home in West Virginia right?
Speaker 10 (10:11):
Well, you know, the war was going on in Bosnia
in nineteen ninety four. It was real hot and just
watching the children going through pain, living in fear of
death every single day, and it just bothered me and
I started praying.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I asked God to please.
Speaker 10 (10:25):
Do something, you know, I wanted God to just reach
down and just do something for these children. And I
prayed that for about four months, and on this particular day,
I was down on my knees praying and the Lord said,
you do something, and that was just powerful to me.
About five minutes after that I saw Franklin Graham, but
I didn't know he was Billy Graham's son. It was
just a man on TV. And I heard him say
(10:47):
the word Bosnia, and I said, you know, it's no coincidence.
I'm praying for Bosnia, and you know, Lord tells me
to do something. So I caught about five minutes of
his program. So I went around to all of my neighbors,
and in thirteen days, my neighbors brought to my home
one thy two hundred and fifty eight shoebox, a man
thirteen nuyes.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Wow.
Speaker 10 (11:06):
And to be honest with you, these people are they
live in poverty areas. You know, they don't have much
their self. You've seen us on TV. You know they
bring food into us ever now and.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Now that was like.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
My people where we're from.
Speaker 10 (11:20):
The first thing that come to my mind is you
don't have no way to get him. You don't even
know where this man lives. You know, he could be
in another country somewhere. So about an hour after I
was worried about how I was going to get him there,
this woman called me and she said, are you the
shoe box lady. I'd never heard that phase before. I said, well,
yet you can call me that. And she said, could
you use the truck? And I said, yes, ma'am, I could.
(11:41):
I me and the Lord was just now talking about
that you're an answer to prayer. So this lady shows
up with this big truck, and first of all she
asked me, she said, can you drive it? Because so
I'm thinking real fast, And I said, no, I can't.
I said, but my son can't. Now, my son at
the time was eighteen years old. He never stepped in
one before in his lifetime. And he's looking at me
big eyed, and I kind of cover the phone. I said,
(12:01):
by the grace of God, you'll get there. He will
cheat you on the way, but you'll drive that you.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Oh yeah, oh wow.
Speaker 10 (12:09):
Oh my son actually learned how to do that on
the way. He really really did.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
Wow.
Speaker 9 (12:13):
And Samaritans purse is not condoned an eighteen wheeler without
a license.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Exactly. But he had no license, no nothing.
Speaker 10 (12:23):
But we took the back road, you know, and kind
of figure out where Franklin Graham was at. And I
remember the word Samaritan's purse and how i'd heard that before,
and I remembered eight years before that I had made
a five dollars sacrificial donation to Samaritan's Purse. So we
went to digging through everything and found an address. Well,
we went down to the filling station, borrowed some map
(12:43):
and looked on it and routed it out Boom, North Carolina,
and we headed out and hit the rough.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Wow, that's how it happened.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
And she shows up at Samaritan's Purse with an eighteen
wheeler full of shoe boxes on Thanksgiving Day.
Speaker 10 (12:54):
Right, and of course nobody's there. So we spent the
night in the truck with You know, one thing I learned,
John Moore, you don't go and visit Franklin Graham when
you've spent the night in a truck with a dog,
no way to bath, no nothing.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
You know, you kind of looked spooky to it.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
But anyway, come.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, the desk.
Speaker 10 (13:21):
It was so funny though, And honest I had hardly
been fifty miles from my home, and I didn't know
there was people that you couldn't just walk up and
say I want to talk to. I went up to
the desk and I told the lady, I said I'd
like to see Franklin Graham. She said, you'd like to walk.
She kind of give me that deer in the headlight
looking and I said, I'd like to see Franklin Graham
and she said, well, ma'am, he's not here. And I
said where is he? And she said, well, he's home.
(13:46):
And I said, well, has he got a telephone number?
And she's still kind of looking at me, and I said, look,
I said, I've come on a mission for God. I
know what God has told me to do. I said,
I'd like to speak to Franklin Graham. So she gets
him on the phone because I'm not going anywhere. I
made that play and I'm standing right here to see
the man of.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
God told me to see.
Speaker 10 (14:04):
And at Franklin Graham's coming down through there when I
seen him pulling up and I kind of looked at
him and all this kind of embarrassing, But I said,
you know, you gonna think this is funny. I said,
your last name being Graham, I said, you look so
much like that famous preacher name.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
That's a great story, as is biracial too. Man.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
Well, since then, Mary's been on the road. She's been

you a chance to join the winners. Here we got
a free membership to the Big Show. Now check it
out at the Big Show dot Com with all you get. Also,
(15:27):
we got a PAP's blue ribbon erasing prize package, we
cooled T shirt and hat. You see this? Watching contestants
eat Dead Rats on NBC's gross out stunt show Fear
Factor so disgusted a Cleveland man that he sued NBC
or two point five million dollars, saying he could not
(15:48):
stomach what he saw. Man in a handwritten four page
lawsuit filed in federal court Fair Legal, Austin Atkins said
to have the individuals on the show eat and drink
Dead Rats was crazy and from a viewer's point of view,
made me throw up, as well as another in the
house at the same time.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Has he never seen fear Factor?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
His suit added, NBC a is sending the wrong message
to its TV watchers that cash can make or have
people do just about anything beyond reasoning and in most
cases against their will.
Speaker 6 (16:21):
Well, you can't say he didn't understand the message of
the show.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
He said. The show causes blood pressure to rise so
high that he became dizzy and lightheaded, and when he
ran away to his room, he bumped his head in
a doorway. So he's running from the TV man he
bumps his head on a doorway in a brief telephone
interview I Hadkins said, I'm not at liberty to discuss
the complaint unless it is a paid interview situation. A
(16:47):
supposement for fear factors of the show would have no comment.
Remember we had the taste tester for fear factor on
the Big Show and at Appeerly in Texas, Susan and
Stephen Manis it was their fault their daughter was late
for school, so they shared her punishment spent an hour
with her in detention. Couple says their thirteen year old daughter, Jessica,
(17:09):
was being unfairly punished for being late six times in October.
In November when the family's van wouldn't start, so when
administrator's assisted, the Pierland Junior High School seventh grader would
have to spend an hour in detention, they decided to
go with her. Thanks a lot, Mom and Dad, that'll am.
During the hour of detention, the trio copy two pages
from a school handbook about good citizenship.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
Oh joy, I'm sure that didn't make it seem longer
for her at all.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Pennsylvania Boy thirteen scores perfect sixteen hundred on the SAT
their ten year boy standardized tests used to given a
college bound high school seniors. I was pretty surprised and happy,
said Lee Kennedy Schaefer, in eighth grader at Mechanicsburg Middle School.
I did not think I would score that high. He
got the perfect score for a test he took in December.
He wouldn't the first in his family to get a
(17:55):
perfect score, all right. See in June two thousand and three,
his brother Row scored sixteen hundred as a junior in
high school. My brother Hallah had fifteen twenty. It might
be genetics. That's why I chose not to study early
in my school. Hey, god, there's no sense punching.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Is my birthday? Soutack?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Hey man, birthday, birthday James with Spartanburg. Alright, Dan, hang
on our classic bit of the morning. It's coming up
next you by coming good morning. You got a big
showing a radiover this morning, this real early this morning
at the Jars in my memory for our classic requested
bit of the morning where you can request yours at
(28:09):
the big Show dot com is probably east way to
do that. The singer formerly known as Kat Stevens is
still barred from entering the United States because of terror
intelligence that identifies him as a security threat, or at.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
Least that's what we're telling him.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Usef Islam, the peace trained singer who largely gave up
music after conferring to Islam in the late nineteen seventies.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
Yeah, that new name he picked is probably not helping much,
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Remember we were all for it back then. Yousef was
removed from a London to Washington fly cause of suspected
links to terrorists, the claim he has strongly denied. He's
still out. Mad Max is still in and he's coming
up next. Good in the morning. It's a big show
(29:18):
on already, old tell me every question. But in the morning. Yeah,
Eddie Lawson out of Tulsa, Oklahoma, we hit a mad
Max deal. Kad he can go with it.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Y'm boing villy, Mad Max, her Max?
Speaker 1 (29:33):
How you doing?
Speaker 5 (29:34):
How you think I'm doing mad mad, I'm plump, pixelated,
I'm all hot about how we're fighting this war on terror. Hey,
did you hear about our latest victory. We caught Cat Stevens.
Turns out he wasn't being followed by Moonshadow after all,
it was an air marshal. In case you missed it,
(29:56):
Cat Stevens was on this plane flying from London to
Washington and his name showed up on the Big Tearer
alert list. Of course he didn't say Cat Stevens because
when old Cat went Muslim, he changed his name to
Yousef Islam. That's right, Islam. Gee, you think cat might
be what got him read flag? Call me crazy, But
(30:20):
if you're wearing a beard and a bowl haircut, you're
on a plane to Washington, d C. And your name
is mister Islam, you're going to attack some attentions. So
they called on the radio and the plane did an
emergency landing in Bangor, Maine, which if you're trying to
neutralize a Muslim, that's probably a good place to do it.
(30:43):
Mister Islam appealed for help from the local Muslim community.
Unfortunately the guy was out of town. Road ain't send
him back to London. Now you see in the world
of international tearor I doubt Cat Stevens is real high
up on the chain of command. Remember that deck of
playing cards with the most wanted on it hit be
(31:03):
like the two of clubs. And here's what gets me.
If they did think he was a terrorist, how come
they let him on the plane in the first place?
My butt, that's what's wrong with how we're fighting this
war on terror. At the airport, you got mister Islam
breezing right through security check, no problem. Meanwhile they're strip
(31:26):
searching the eight year old kid of eighty eight year
old grandmaa fat dude and a hearn Hart Forever t shirt.
You know why, so they won't get in trouble for
profiling people, which means they're allowed to hassle everybody but
the terrorists. Because the last thing you want when you're
trying to find an anti American suicide bombers for somebody
(31:49):
to accuse you of being insensitive, my big old American fuck.
I actually met a Muslim feller the other day down
at the DNV getting license renewed. Since I had about
seven or eight hours to kill me and him got
to talk and he give me this little paperback book
called A Brief God to Understanding Islam. I guess Muslims
(32:13):
for Dummies was already take you anyway. It's had a
chapter in it called what does Islam think about Terrorism?
Now here's what it says. I ain't making this up.
Islam does not permit terrorism. Muslims believe in peace, mercy
and forgiveness, and the vast majority have nothing to do
(32:34):
with the violent events that some have associated with Muslims.
I say, really, then, where in the world do we
get such a crazy idea? Could it be from watching
the nightly news for the last thirty years. That's when
all I have started showing me a bunch of verses
from the coup Ran like the merciful are shown mercy
(32:56):
by the all merciful, show mercy to those on earth,
and God will show mercy to you. I say, partner,
that all sounds good on paper. Problem is seems like
an awful lot of your people never got the memo
on this piece hur saying forgiveness stuff. Hey, I got
an idea. Maybe I should have given this book to
folks like me. You are to be passing out a
(33:18):
few copies over in the middle Age. I never got
a chance to hear what he had to say to
the acles. Right about then, that fat girl from the
DNV finally called his name. Some things are way more
important than religion. Oh and by the way, when they
busted Cat Stevens, you know where he was going. He
was catching a second plane to a recorded session in Nashville,
(33:42):
So he didn't actually have a bomb, but he was
getting ready to start working on this job. God, gom on, Billy,
y'all have a nice day.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
The nerve racking like playing cards with my brother's kids
over here. Friday is gonna be really good. Yes, it's
the big show. I'm just gonna go with.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
I drank that that Coca cola too fastest, but I
think I'm gonna I'll find I want you to you
want to do it, I'll tell you that enough.
Speaker 6 (34:48):
What if me and some of the boys is to
shoot that producer dead for you?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
That cheer you up at my Hell, let's see, I've
been going through email letters. Yes, yes, let me say
down a couple morning I might be called up. Maybe
that's what it is. I can't do everything with somebody
do something around here. The last one I'm just going
(35:12):
ignore you from now and so have you a little
fun with a little bodily function buttons over there, and
go back to that house I built you. You think
about it this weekend that now.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
It's gonna be Yeah, good luck getting in the house.
Speaker 1 (35:26):

Well, now she can't see is this lord of the fly?
Oh shut up, Philly, here's here's a couple of people.
But love me, John Barby.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Listen to your show for years with all its comical attributes,
sketches and personalities, and you have a regulars Have you

answer segment for the recreational vehicle listener?
Speaker 5 (36:06):

line experience, also as an independent shop owner with professional
dirt track racing dad my resume. With all this life experience,
I feel I'm qualified for a position of this nature.
I'm pitching this proposal to other radio stations, but you
(36:30):

By the way, I wrote a screenplay with Billy Bob
Thornton in mind. Oh okay, help me sell it and
I'll cut you in gotta run. I'm on my way
to test an unintentional fuel additive on my four wheeler.
Now that we've pulled it from the sour mash pond.
(37:00):
See you feel all better now, aren't you? Looking back.
I don't think he'd liked me that much. I think
he was trying to use me. I've had enough fat
feeling today. Let's go for a better feeling, John Boy.
My name is Joe Hamms and I'm a senior at
North Mecklenburg High School, North Carolina. Ever since I was
a little boy listening to you down to Monroe, North Carolina,
(37:20):
I've always wanted to do what you do. I'm now
trying to go to college for it, radio broadcasting, that is.
But right now I'm a senior and I have a
