Burgess with encouraging words the podcast. I'm working on it.
Follow it. I'm working on that.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
But the encouraging words are what he thinks is that.
That's what he thinks encouraging. But it's nowhere near it. No,
but he thinks he's being polite. Oh yeah, but you're
not that bad.

Speaker 6 (02:44):
Yeah, bread doesn't stink like as bad as I thought.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
It's not like death breath. Yes, let me encourage you.
Do you have stink breath? Yes, you do, cadiver breath.
Not really, not really. It's still not very good, not great.

Speaker 5 (02:58):
I have a concern right out of the gate, and
I just have to ask you about it because I've
noticed there's something missing today. And I don't know if
it's just the fact that Gregg's hadn't dove into it
or not. But did Donde come yesterday?

Speaker 1 (03:12):
He did not Wednesday Bible study yesterday, Dondee was not here.
Are you okay?

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Don's all right. It might have simply been. I've noticed
it's kind of you know, fourth of July. It fell
on a Friday, and that made it weird for vacationing people.
They didn't know what to do with it. They didn't
know whether if they were going for a week vacation,
they should start the week and end it with the
fourth or they should do the fourth then start. Yeah,
you noticed saying it felt kind of in between two weeks,

(03:39):
so you don't know which one. I think everybody split
up a little bit, which that might help with the crowds.
But yeah, apparently not.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
Well, I just I noticed there's I mean, that'd been
peanuts all over the counter, you know, he'd been tearing
them up well prior to the show starting, and I
just noticed that was missing today.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
So yeah, well, well I found that Maxicato that said
he has one called encouraging word. It was one of
today because I said, well I was going to use
that one. Yeah all right, so Greg, I don't know
who it was. Yeah, we just had them on. But yeah,
let me cheg what I'm saying. That's where that come from.
There's two I said, dang, he got mine. I was
going to do that. There's two chasms and Greg, there's

(04:17):
two chasms and they're both really really large. One is
between sinful man and the Holy God. Number two is
you and Maxlicato. The chasm between you two is large, Greg,
Maxicato is one of the kindest, most gentle people ever.
You're nothing like maxicated. I didn't say that. I just
said I was going to use that now, keeping the

(04:37):
idea for that same I mean podcast. Have you ever
run across anybody? She didn't get I should have got
the copyright on it, right, Greg should have got the
one encouraging word. Yeah, can you imagine, dang, Max beat
me to Greg. I'm gonna talk to ironheel press. Please
write the book encouraging words, couraging word, Yeah, please, They'll
help you. Please do it. You know you're The first

(04:58):
chapter is how do you get back on your get
up off your wrung?

Speaker 4 (05:01):
Right?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Greg?

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Very encouraging.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Have you ever met anybody one get up off your hand?
There may be people that don't read his books. There
may be people that you know. I don't know much
about him. But if you ever met anybody says, I
tell you one thing, I don't like that Maxica. He's
a little rough way. Who's he think he is but
a little course. Even the way he talks, you know
what I mean. I can't imagine him ever raising his voice.

(05:24):
Can you imagine Mexicat'll being like real mad an't you? No? Rick,
I'm just gonna tell you, I'm really upset with you.
I've had enough of your around. I'm gonna take a
pot keep it up, and I'm gonna take a poke. Rick.
Can I just say this to you. If you touch
mind Jimmy Dan sausage again, you and I are going
to have a real problem. Now I have a problem, right,

(05:45):
so anyway, and let me just warn everybody with low
on food just sweat me. It's all right. It takes
a big oldje I just said, yeah, Well, I'm gonna
thank Chris Adler.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Chris Adler, you'm the new Don Dee.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
That's right. You have actually completely different style. But yeah,
you've taken a lot of good but they're not the same.
But you've taken a lot of pressure off Donde because
at least he can go to them. It's it's not
what he prefers. That's two different categories. To me, it's
not it's not one can't fill in for the other.
I've seen you run your hands off in him though,
when Donde didn't come, No, I don't put them in
my hand. I don't run my hands off in And

(06:18):
we've discussed that.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
We've discussed.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, there was a time in the eighties nobody cared.
We were at public places. Everybody run their hands off
and the popcorn. Right, this is the thing I don't
understand about this new thing where everybody's all freaked out.
Where were we throughout every bit of my life except
the last few years, guys, do you remember the things?
I mean, most of the life was revolved around. Everything

(06:43):
was somewhat dirty, and nobody cared. Greg, I want you
to think about just the grime and the filth of
just being involved in public school sports, oh every just
the grime and the filth, and no one said a word.
And you know, no one was dying, know whatever.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
As a matter of fact, it's laying dormant in it
and it's and it's going to show up my few years.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Well if it does. You know, look at this, I
mean I've clipped sixty. It's already hadn't beat me, right,
I mean, you know it didn't like take me out
of here at twenty two you know, so uh, even
though other things nearly did but that didn't. So yeah,
I don't this new thing, you know, And we always
go too far as human beings. We can't get a balance.

(07:26):
We couldn't get a balance. We either are are don't
care enough about hygiene, or we go to the point
that we care so much about it. It's actually a
negative effect. Yeah, you can go too far. Yeah, I
don't think of public peanut bowls too far. But I
just I know, says the man says, to run my
hands off somebody that I got you, the whole crowds
walking there digging in it, says a man who drank

(07:48):
out of public water fountains for how much of your
life with people standing on line one after another putting
their mouth on it, and nobody said anything but Greg,
everybody's mouth was down there. It was, But you didn't
know what people did before you, I know, Yeah, drinking
out of hose pops. Look, when you're out there in
the middle of that, you'll you'll when you're des hose pops,
when you're I like that hose pipe taste, somebody somebody's

(08:10):
out there with a straw because somebody put their hands
on the cup and they drink out of a hose
pop that laid on the ground. I mean, what do
we even talking about the hot water come out?

Speaker 5 (08:20):
Even about what they got to that?

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah, you mess up.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
You know.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
It tastes like rubber. It is real hot.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
And you don't know what's crawled up in that host hospital.
I don't know. No one even cares. Dogs have licked
it so much, dogs have peant on it. Maybe drug
across Oh sure, I don't know about that.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
I think what it is is that, Greg, we spent
so many years running off in public bowls of peanuts
and popcorn. I regret that that that you look back
on it knowing now and hey, that was there's things
you regret.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, that bothers you. Doesn't picture now somebody sitting there
running their reperdosa, scratching their crack and then reaching in
there and getting pure. Let me stop. I never thought
about that.

Speaker 7 (09:04):
Then.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Listen, let me just hit you. Let me hit you
with this. Wait a minute, hold on, just a minute.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Because you were the one doing it, Greg Man, you
were the one doing it.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
Well. I know the things I've done and my hands
in there, and I bet everybody else did too. But
let's throw this out there. The other the other day
when you mentioned this, this is the part I thought
was was was classic human beings. Of all the things
that you said you regretted in a bar, that's what
you regretted. Yeah, you are. If I could take one

(09:34):
thing by my hand in that snack bow, Craig, so
many other wors things happening there. Yeah, that stuff was
working pretty good. I can't think of any improvements anything
on that imp So So anyway, a lot to do
today and we'll work through all of it. Got you

(09:55):
some updates, we'll get those in there. Uh yeah, Speaking

we're talking about you know, at one time, apparently our
immune system did pretty well before we terrified of every germ.
So somebody sent me a picture. I forgot about this,

(13:05):
butte from the public restroom. Do you remember this? Yeah,
so just pull it down so we we would drive
our hands. Everybody in there together and and those of
you that are too young to remember this piece of work.
It was I don't know what, just like a towel

(13:26):
hanging hanging, hanging down, But but you never threw it away.
It just kept running. It back through and back out again,
and you always had something to dry your hands on.
But everybody, everybody used it. It wasn't just yours. It
weren't supposed to pull your pull it down and then
go to the clean I think would have melted if

(13:48):
that was the king.

Speaker 6 (13:49):
I remember seeing those as a kid, and I'm like,
this is just an endless, disgusting toilet forgot all sharing.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, yep, I forgot all about that, beauty.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Let's just reuse each other's toilet paper while we're listen.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
Those things were that was the way to go. Yeah,
it was a couple of good No.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
No, I was just I had a little piece of
audio here. I was wanting to see if y'all could
tell me what's going on just a little bit here.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
Okay, feels good.

Speaker 8 (14:12):
She did a great job. We weren't underwater and she
didn't panic.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
So went underwater and she didn't panic. You want a
little bit more if you if you want a little
bit more less. It's just some sort of animal we're
releasing back in the wild. Or is it a human?
I know, what do you think? Greg? Not think it's
an animal? You think it's an animal? Okay? Happy?

Speaker 2 (14:32):
She did a good job.

Speaker 8 (14:33):
We're just gonna have dinner and go to the party
and celebrate.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Everybody.

Speaker 8 (14:36):
Never done anything like that, jumping water puddle with my wife,
So I'm gonna go hear some other stories from everybody else.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
He jumped in a water puddle with his.

Speaker 6 (14:44):
Wife plunge even weirder than that.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Well, uh, well is it? Is it mud? Are we
jumping in mud couples?

Speaker 5 (14:55):
That's that's not bad. That's good, Rick, that's good. We're
getting We're getting Okay, we're getting former are we? Are
we wrestling? What are we doing in the money?

Speaker 1 (15:02):
It is?

Speaker 5 (15:03):
There are twenty twenty five wife carrying World championships return
to Finland when they throw them over their shoulders right
in the US that way Caleb and Justin.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
That was Justin.

Speaker 5 (15:15):
They emerged victorious in the main race. So that's when
you carry your wife upside down? Yeah yeah, yeah, and
you you're running through the obstacle course and yeah you
see you see the in your butt?

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah, they wrapped their arm their forgot. Yeah in the studio,
I think I blocked it out of my mind because
of the trump. I didn't I did carry you around. Yeah,
And if I blocked it out of my mind. I
know Adler did. Yeah, there's something, there's something that do that.
But the guy on the right.

Speaker 5 (15:44):
So basically what happens is they're there, your wife's heads
down by your butt and their butts in the back
of your neck and and and then you're holding on
to the.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
Back of their thighs. But like, if you just what
do you guys? Just yeah?

Speaker 5 (15:58):
If you just you, I'd like to carry terry like
that on the right. If either of those things. O,
there's a traditional back ride when you when you're running,
your head bounces, so I would think your wife's heads
constantly like banging on your butt.

Speaker 6 (16:14):
It is.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
I'm going to ask you to stop talking.

Speaker 6 (16:17):
Well that's what speed. He's onto something here, but it
works better. What happens they tried. We've got the traditional
on the left and you got the inverted on the right,
and traditional goes down.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
Oh yeah, well, oh god, wow, his face playing it.
I think he broke his nose just he hit his face.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
He's hurt. Can I correct something?

Speaker 5 (16:40):
You're not holding on to your wife.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
We shouldn't be watching We should be watching this.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
He just jumped in a fuddle and your face just
went straight in and.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
Now do y'all mind if I make a correction. I
said that you had your wife. You had your hands
holding on to the back of your wife's He's actually
your wife can hold.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Her on the she can hold her own she she she.

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Just now it's around and she can hold the back
of her own thighs.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
That way.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
You can run like with your arms like you like
you're running and she's holding on to herself.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Yes, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
You control you and me right to works. Williams are freak.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
So when he said, hey, we went underwater.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Her head's underwater. He's not.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
But she held it together. Hey, let me tell you something. Listen,
if you just joined us, we are talking about a
competition that we are not talking about where babies come from. Okay,
this guy, this is unbelievable. I'll tell you what it is.
That guy and his wife are going there's no way.
I know the other method is better, but there's no

(17:53):
way I'm doing that, and they think they can do it.
I wish you could. I could see you right there. Greg. Wow,
I'll tell you what won't you won't wear a ball
ball cap backwards?

Speaker 2 (18:02):
No, that guy's face went into the sand.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah, that's not good. I guess it's Rosler. I don't know.
But Caleb and Justin they're the US couple and they
want it. They wanted.

Speaker 5 (18:19):
They got a little pool here to run through. Oh
my goodness, there this guy's here. I mean, how do
they even make it to the championship? Is there was
there a bracket playoffs?

Speaker 2 (18:31):
They how did you even.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
Get to look like?

Speaker 6 (18:34):
We have like a professional white carrying couple and then
we have people that just showed up.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
That that's that's the better technique, man, it is.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
She's got to have some strength to hold onto her
back legs. He does, and apparently yoga pants are a must.

Speaker 6 (18:48):
Yeah right, all right, speedy you last time you carried me,
This time I could carry you. If you ever see
if we could try this new method where you grab
your own legs and you.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
I don't I think my head would drag the ground?
Would you carrying?

Speaker 9 (19:00):
Man?

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Good?

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Be fine, but you don't have any hair, so it'll
be fine. So you know, slick.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Now, there's a few things I forbid, but I think
I might.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
Here's the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
You're enjoying the best of hour on the Rick Burgess
show alright in America, and we wind our way into
another show today. So we've uh, we're off and running.

(19:42):
We're off and running. There comes Greg hobbling through. I
don't thinking of a little speeding no way again. All right.

Speaker 5 (19:48):
So we were practicing out in the lobby. Rick kept
carrying each other.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Who was who was the woman? He was the upside down?
He was the woman. Yeah, that that I can't have.
He said he could play that role easy. Wow. Yeah, yeah,
let mess. I'm gonna say this because I think it's
the key to long term success for the show. I'll
never ever step in and say no, let somebody else
describe this. I want you to describe everything we talk about,
because you get your stuff in a buying so fast

(20:15):
that Yeah. Was that not real though, guys, Oh yeah,
it was real. I like that anything that I compete
in I want to win. Obviously, that technique is the
best technique if you want to win. But that's that
I don't know how you can do that. We're talking
about it physically. I'm talking about how you can mendle
that somebody with a sidecar. Yeah yeah. This year we

(20:35):
had the h that uncomfortable one that's the best one.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
You're talking about the wife carrying World Championships that were
in Finland. A US couple won Good crowd Watch and
this year's the addition, it featured a team event, a
separate woman's series, and all together two hundred people from
eighteen countries took part in this and a US couple
won it.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
Yeah, you ushe heavy shoes my wife. Of course, there
ain't heavy. It being carried wife carrying, and that kind
of narrows it down. They're probably eliminades some athletes that
they're not married but would be good at that.

Speaker 5 (21:13):
Some husbands are shorter than their wives. But in this case,
you have to be shorter than your husband for this tour.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Oh no, that is not necessarily necessary.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Is that a couple? How not?

Speaker 6 (21:26):
Because just as long as your body, your torso, your
torso is not longer than their your husband's torso and legs.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
I mean, it's going to cause problems, but you can
get it done.

Speaker 5 (21:38):
But you want your if you're the wife, you want
your head to end it. It may be his butt, not.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
All the way.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
You want your husband to be taller than you.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah, just like this, in general, if women were honest. Yeah,
and that's fine, that's okay.

Speaker 6 (21:52):
Occasionally you have a big man that can handle a
wife that is taller than he is, and that's great too.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
I need a Bluebird video. But sound like you're really
doubling down.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
I have a friend that's his wife is way taller
than now.

Speaker 6 (22:04):
I felt bad about saying what I said a second ago,
and he's he's he gets it.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
You know, you got it done.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Everybody in here thought of the friend we have that
their wife. That's why, that's why you didn't pick up
a lot of support.

Speaker 6 (22:16):
Right, Yeah, Yes, they had a separate women's great women
can compete, said Greg, you don't.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
Listen, why is that wife? I mean, I guess it
could be.

Speaker 5 (22:25):
That's what I said. I said in this year's edition.
They had a team event and a separate women's series
as well.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Now, did they have to be in a relationship the
women or because that's.

Speaker 5 (22:35):
What it's called, I will say for the wife, uhan
summer's thing where you.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Stop doing your thighs.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
You have to have extremely strong thighs because some technique
is to see the ladies they just says or their
their ankles and they and buddy, they are just yeah,
they're just they're they're absolutely exclusing, like you know, so
you're trying to squeeze both sides of your husband's neck.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
I'm water. Is that not what happened? I'm not trying.
This is this is what? How much do you describe
that that the.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Women got stuck in the puddle. I'm sorry, but the
women got stuck in the puddle.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
It so Rick.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
What happens is see if you see here, so that
the man has to be able to see. If you
can't hold your grip, then you start sliding down. Now
your your calves are in front of his face and
he can't see.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
So now he's trying to pull you back down. I
have got it.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
You need to be a wife carry coach.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
The only one that is Mario and Luigi.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Yes, it's Mario.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Gosh, grandson was all in this. How you not know that?
Corrects me every time, because you've been messing so much
you think you do. I don't know which one it is,
you know, because I'm grown.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
It's Mario.

Speaker 6 (23:52):
That's like saying I don't know Chad Norris instead of
Chuck Norris.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
Well, is it Mario Andretti or Mario ANDRETTI.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
I think it's Mario, and I don't know. I don't
think Mario is a name.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Trouble. I struggle with that name. I would like to
try to and Greg try to get this question. And
I want to ask you and the women's division on this.
Do they have to be a couple or just any
two women can carry each other?

Speaker 5 (24:16):
Called wife carrying? I would think I think it was
how you enter here.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah, let's want to hear.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
But it's literally called wife carrying. That's the name of
the sport right here.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
Let's just hear them and we'll be able to tell.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
It was a women's division. Watched a few videos of
previous competitions.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Did I squats but probably not that many friends.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
The main thing we did actually was we got married.
Oh okay, it's called they like they don't like friends
standing there, But once the competition started, they didn't like
friends anymore. I saw the way they looked at each other, like, hey,

(25:01):
maybe the sport is called wife care.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I know, but then maybe they could be.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
You just not want to believe it, because it's if
you looked around the world, this is not this is
not in common that this year it featured a team
events and separate women's series. So I didn't know, but
women series of a sport called wife car. So do
you so you think all the women, yes have to
be in the sport? Is all the lesbian race? Correct?

Speaker 5 (25:25):
Yeah, they should have said the lesbian division. They should
have said that, all right. I mean, if you're breaking
down the bracket, if you're breaking yeah, I wonder what
I wonder like if you series you have different brackets
and and pool play where each region of the country
or the world, you know, you have to make it
through that to even get to Finland?

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Is that the case here?

Speaker 2 (25:46):
I don't know looks like it.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Because some of these people they don't look like they're
very good, it is what I'm saying. So they must
they must have had much competition where.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
They live their friends. Well, okay, well the way we
got actually, Greg, I heard one of the Australian.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Australian, Greg, don't look at me like that, the Australian. Okay,
they were on Australia couple.

Speaker 6 (26:09):
Okay, okay, hey, if you say MARYO one more time,
goodness they say.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
One of the husbands asked me if they worked out.
He said no, sometimes they were good at it, he said,
But the worst race I ever had was still pretty good.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Keep losing, keep hindering the content.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
The training was worth it. I'm on, I'm gonna I'm
gonna say that I think we've we've taken this topic,
gave where we can. I can I say one other
thing I wish you wouldn't.

Speaker 5 (26:38):
Well, I'm just gonna say the one technique for the
winners that I saw is that when the woman, you know,
when she's on the back and she's upside down, got it,
she has to take her hands and straighten her arms
on the back of his butt to where.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
She can like when they go into water, show me,
show me that again. Some of them went under water,
and that takes talent because as you're running.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
And he even said this, Rick, if you want to
hear it again, I don't when he's describing, you know,
like they went underwater and we're even you know, like
he was complimentary of his wife.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
I guess is what I'm trying to He feels.

Speaker 8 (27:13):
Good, she did a great job. We weren't underwater, and
she didn't.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Her head was underwater while he was running. I saw it.
I watched it. I saw the video and did you say,
it's like we're immersing from the water. Yeah, I saw
all of it. Gosh alms a matter of fact, I'll
see all of it for sadly the rest of my life.

Speaker 10 (27:30):
Rick.

Speaker 11 (27:30):
Next, Running of the Bulls this week, let's go from this.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Look at her. Look at that woman is completely under
she was struggling. What watch the Watch the lady in
the blue helmet.

Speaker 5 (27:46):
And then look at red.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Look look at red. Yes, bald heads. Look at.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Like she's having a bald.

Speaker 11 (28:01):
Look she's having a man as a baby out there
giving birth to a man.

Speaker 12 (28:10):
Looks like you.

Speaker 11 (28:11):
Get Look at the head on that baby. That's horrible,
So that the baby's gotta go to you.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
By the way, also, Greg, well, we'll we'll have to
ask me out. I guess you probably you probably hadn't
been bringing in for maintenance. But you're gonna have to
carry your gate, are you? And this needs to be right? Yeah,
seemed like they were. Buddy, you need to do the
upgrade that that outbreak just came in. You must not
take it. I didn't see them together. Yeah, they were

(28:47):
standing right there, right, but they look like friends. And
what's the name of the sport? Wow, we'll be back.
My goodness, I love the Guy show. You're for the
latest updates on wife Harry, this sport. Yeah, we'll be back.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
This is the Rick Burgers Show.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
Hey, it's Rick. You're listening to a Rick Burgers Show
Best of Hour. We're back Monday, August the eleventh.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
Enjoy, be bold, and let the whole world know that
you listen to the Rick Burgers Show. Cool merchandise is available, No,
just go to rickburgershow dot com and click shot.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
All right, America, a lot of you. Yesterday I was
wearing the Mendo Running the Rain shirt and maybe I'd
do a good job of telling you, but I started
getting people commenting on social media and stuff. Hey, man,
where do you get those? Right there? Rick burgershow dot com,
they're there. Just click shop on the homepage, or if
you're texting text Nation, this text store you can see

(29:52):
it there too. A couple of the updates we want
to run down for you today. You know, it seems
like we as as Americans, we get all excited, like
we're really gonna get some information, and you know, ma'am,
this is really gonna be something. Here comes the JFK papers,
Here comes to Epstein files, here comes this, here comes that.
When was the last time any of us any of

(30:14):
this led to anything. Never? So here's another one. Hey,
Biden's doctor's coming in. Yeah, Hey, we gonna get to
the bob. By the way, do y'all really need the doctor?
Does anybody? Why do we keep pretending that we're unearthing
that Biden was the leader diagnose the issue, Yeah, leading
the free world? Why? Clearly the evidence of that is

(30:36):
just overwhelmed. We can all see it. We don't have
to be told anything. And do we think he was
making all these decisions?

Speaker 8 (30:43):
Know?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Is it likely that even things he was signing they
were using auto pen Yes, I don't know that. I mean,
what I'm saying is he's not the president anymore. He's done.
It was bad. We shouldn't let this happen again. But
we're kind of acting like we want to do some
bombs ill that Biden was serving us while not having
his cognitive skills. I don't I know we moved on

(31:06):
from that two years ago. Yeah right, yeah, but anyway,
we're not getting information from his doctor. No, he just
he he rolled in sat down. Kevin O'Connor, Ah, Kevin
O'Connor was Biden's doctor. Uh, and you know what he said,
I take the fifth, ye, not telling you anything. All
we learned was his name, which we knew. We now

(31:26):
know it's Kevin o'canner, which means he didn't want to
criminalize itself in that right. So yeah, yeah, maybe he
filled out false record. I don't know, so, so it's
anything there. O'Connor pleted the fifth to multiple questions about
his time with the former President Joe Biden during the
sit down. It resulted in a hasty end to what

(31:48):
could have been an hour long hours long with an
ass deposition. I'm going to read the first two questions.
They were asked, were you ever told to lie about
the president's health? He pleaded the fifth. He would not
answer the question. Got you second question, did you ever
believe President Biden was unfit to execute his duty? James Comber,

(32:10):
the Republic from Kentucky was there. He took the fifth
on that again, so according to Comber, this is unprecedented.
I think this adds more fuel to the fire that
there was a cover up. Well, Comber, I appreciate you
trying to like get an official word on that. We
all could plainly see there was a cover up. We
got it so know that we know and understand corn

(32:33):
pop right, we didn't need to not open for it. Well.
And the reason why I think that even people on
the left couldn't say it why he was serving, because
they knew it would lead to all kinds of chaos.
But even they are coming, they're going, yeah, of course,
but we couldn't say it why he was serving because
it would have got our party in trouble.

Speaker 6 (32:50):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
So, but no one believes that President Biden was on
top of the garbage. You know how sometimes people just
go too far. Remember when they would just go too far?
Oh yeah, not sharp? Yeah, I mean we can't keep
up with sharp running circles around sharpest person in the room. Yea.
And I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't. Sometimes I did
think he was the sharpest person in the room. Depends

(33:13):
on who's in the meeting, right, But you guys who
you went too far with? You know what they should
have said? Of course, he's aging. When people age, sometimes
you get absent in mind that he doesn't have dementia,
he's not going through Alzheimer's. He can execute his duties.
But they but they did, they went so far he's great,
the best he's ever I think he's got superpowers. And

(33:33):
he's going another term, right, so we all know can't
keep up with him. My goodness. But but O'Connor says,
you're not going to criminalize me. I take the fifth,
I'm out, So there you go. Secret Service Speedy said
this when I walked in the studio today, and and
Nathla and I are we even talking about time? How
sometimes it seems slow, sometimes it seems fast. Does it

(33:53):
seem like it's almost the one year anniversary of the
attempted assassination on Donald Trump? Butler, Pennsylvania. Doesn't seem it's
been there. By the way, ye, did I ever tell
anything about this guy we were talking about, Yes, we
were talking about that. July thirteenth is a one year
the president in the head nearly did month? Did this
guy just vanish off the face of the earth. I
know he's dead, but I mean, yeah, but nothing about

(34:15):
it talked about him a very It's very mysterious, that
whole thing. Yeah, I mean, we're gonna rehash everything. We
would be nice that for everybody come around and said, well,
let me tell you what this guy was all about?
And Here's here's what we think the motivation was beyond
the obvious. And here's what we think it's just all
of a sudden, like, who, he didn't kill the president?
It was close, Let's move on. Yeah, but anyway, secret

(34:36):
I got there.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
It's not really one of those things you just go shoot, yeah,
that was close and then move on.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
Yeah, there's no doubt he had help on the inside.
I mean there's no way you get into that position
without somebody helping you. Yeah, that's just logic. I mean,
no way a kid like this can get to such
an easy Yeah, thankfully was not able to pull it off.
Secret Service has suspended, to your point, Greg's six agents
over failures during Trump's assassination attempt in Butler. So took

(35:06):
about a year for us to investigate all that.

Speaker 7 (35:10):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
And so now the Secret Services, Yep, we got six
people we think kind of let everybody down, didn't do
their job real well. Uh, and they have suspended them.
Does that mean fired, that mean probation a little time all.
So anyway, we know that the director Kimberly was a
cheatle she was forced to resign. We remember that, remember

(35:33):
going to remember the first week?

Speaker 6 (35:35):
Yeah, and then we saw the slanted roof, Yes, the
whole thing that we didn't it.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
Was dangerous up there. We didn't want to the agents
up there.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
And you're in danger. People walking around less than two
hundred yards secret Service agents there never in dangerous situations.
Now there's people that claim this is fate. Well, now
I don't know how to fake the guy that got
killed in the stands. But all right, so we're the
whole like this was the trumpet up so we galvanized
Trump people around Trump for saying Cartlage don't heal that quick?

(36:05):
And it's now there's no sign of it, and that
just you know how it is. Well, like you said, Greg,
you're you're bringing up you, you're bringing up the obvious,
and that is so I guess if we're gonna fake this,
we get people killed in the bleachers, right and uh
and we make sure that there's a shot that that
grazes him yea, or or that was just pretend. Uh

(36:27):
So anyway, those the shot to win the stands was real. Right,
It's just it's just all weird.

Speaker 5 (36:32):
I mean, look, I'm not into everything is a conspiracy theory,
because I mean not everything is a conspiracy However, looking
at this, there's a lot of unique situations that have
never happened before. And this whole you know, this is
the only rally that seen inn was that yes, but
this was the only time they used counters not there

(36:53):
was just like, Okay, did they really think this?

Speaker 1 (36:55):
They think thought they thought this was gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
And we and we never hearing it live.

Speaker 6 (36:59):
This they've never aired at Trump rally live and they
were just so happened to be airing that one.

Speaker 1 (37:04):
I just don't know. I am the guy. The shooter
is like they quit talking about him, you know, motive
something like I said, I mean, you would think we
would have a major in depth background. I look at this,
look at that, and you'll release By now it's been
a year. We can't even get a documentary, but said,
the motive for the shooting has never been established. With
only limited information about Crooks, he was a registered Republican,

(37:26):
but in January twenty twenty one, he made a fifteen
dollars donation to the Political Action Committee that raises money
for Democrats. In the days leading up to the Butler Rally,
Crooks made at least sixty Google searches about the geography
of Butler, but also about winning where the Democratic and
Republican summer conventions would be held. He also googled how

(37:47):
far away was Oswald from Kennedy, referring to Lee Harvey Oswald,
who shot and killed President Kennedy in sixty three. So
that's all we know. Used to be a Republican start
giving money to the Democrats, started googling everything about it.
That's not the issue. I understand that anybody could do that.
The issue is we know people are going to do that,

(38:09):
so the place is secure?

Speaker 7 (38:11):
Correct?

Speaker 1 (38:11):
Could someone who did all this get that kind of access?
That's the question. I'm sure there are all kinds of
coops willing to take the shot, but how do they
get in a position to make the shot?

Speaker 2 (38:25):
And people were like, hey, there's a dude up there.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yeah, right, to get to that point, local correctly, right.

Speaker 6 (38:31):
Local police seemed to be trying to do something about
it walking around the building, but you had the Secret
Service snipers on the roof and seemed.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
To be doing nothing about it until the guy started shooting.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
So six people have been suspended, not sure exactly what
that means, saying that they were derelict in their duties
obviously in this assassination attempt, which, by the way, happened
on July thirteenth of last year.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Right, this is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Okay, Well that's nice, go with him and sit in

ask you this. Okay, do you think you can sit
here and not look at the text there? Because I
know you got feelings hurt last time you were here.

Speaker 12 (42:12):
Oh no, I don't bother me.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Somebody said some negative didn't they hurt you? So we
do that?

Speaker 12 (42:16):
Who doesn't love get hurt you? There's a lot of
people don't like.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
Something wrong with them? Did it hurt your feelings?

Speaker 12 (42:23):
Not really?

Speaker 1 (42:24):
Mm hmmm. I mean nobody likes a little bit. No,
nobody likes it. Well, I get it a lot, we all,
we all do. Just know that there's people that don't
like all. They don't like that. There's people that don't
like us, any of us. Now, it is weird that
they still listen every day or watch which is but you.

Speaker 12 (42:41):
Find I can't understand if they don't like it, what
they're listening for.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
Right, and if it's things I don't like, I normally
don't know what they're doing.

Speaker 12 (42:49):
You know, I say something on TV if I don't
like it, I don't.

Speaker 1 (42:52):
Watch it, right And then and then you have people
that like the show, but there's individuals that they don't like.
Oh you don't have them people, right, And and that's okay,
you know you you just have to live with it.
And so I just want you to know that if
you come into the public arena, you know, it's not
always roses.

Speaker 12 (43:10):
You and me say something body now, well.

Speaker 1 (43:13):

Oh, they won't let two rednecks get together.

Speaker 1 (44:16):

I bet y'all feed off each other's energy.

Speaker 12 (44:23):
Well, it'll be fun, but.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
For two hours, for two hours hours, so you're gonna

Speaker 5 (45:18):
And you didn't really have what you needed for that bat.
So we'll just we'll forget that.

Speaker 12 (45:23):
I thought, I want you keep bringing it up because
we want it.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
Yeah, because until you make a new and that's all
we can think about what we do. Broke three teeth?
I thought Greg. I thought the way Greg acted about
it was a little man.

Speaker 14 (53:33):
No, I ain't gonna throw him on the bus. But
he worked on it, tried to rig something up. You
know that would work because you know, see hey, but anyway,
what uh you know, he tried to rig something up.
He didn't have a grinder on his truck, so he
foaltered me to my house, use my grinder and come
back over there. And we were standing there and he
was working trying to get the log fixed.

Speaker 9 (53:57):
And.

Speaker 14 (53:59):
Uh, I just reached over there and picked up something
on the back of the truck. I said, why can't
you use this right here? He said, where did you
get that at? I said, what's the later throwing back
your truck? He said, well, that's exactly what we need. So,
you know, so then the next five minutes it was

(54:19):

was over.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
Bush hogging It's hard work, isn't it.

Speaker 14 (54:46):
Oh yeah, it's tough. And I hit one of the
telephone polls out there with my bush hog on the.

Speaker 12 (54:54):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (54:55):
Okay, you told me.

Speaker 12 (54:58):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (54:59):
I think now that you're clear, he kind of. He's
bold now that he's clear, because he thought he'd done it,
you know.

Speaker 14 (55:06):
The pole started wiggling and the lines was banging together
out there, and kick a little bit.

Speaker 12 (55:13):
I went on about five hours.

Speaker 14 (55:15):
I went home and uh air conditioned guy said hey,
he said, ain't no power on owhere.

Speaker 12 (55:20):
I said, oh my goodness.

Speaker 14 (55:22):
So I went over there, looked around the fuse boxes,
walked around the telephone poles to see if any of
the breakers.

Speaker 12 (55:30):
Was trips you know, hm, and everything looked So I
called Rick. They said, I don't know what it is.

Speaker 14 (55:39):
I said, well, you're gonna have to call them because
I'm gonna have to go through all that again.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
I wouldn't do that to you, No, But in.

Speaker 14 (55:47):
A little while he said, hey, I got it resolved,
I got it fixed. I said, what do you do,
I'm sitting here in the truck. Ain't nobody been here?
Said well, I had to.

Speaker 12 (55:56):
Pay the bill.

Speaker 14 (55:57):
They cut the dog on power off because they hadn't
paid the bill.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
Wow, no, I tell me right.

Speaker 14 (56:06):
Well, that's what I understood. If the bill been paid,
the power wouldn't have been off.

Speaker 1 (56:12):
The bill wasn't very all right. So Gregory, you'll know
this delinquent. This is Greg's word world at the farm delinquency.
You know, it's not all one one thing. Every meter
has got a separate be there's four meters down there
because you got the barn, you got the pump, you
got what else. And then you've got two houses, these
the two little camp house and the little farmhouse, and

(56:34):
that's for each. So that's four different bills. So what
I do is I tally them all up, and I
sent in one check with all the invoices in there,
which I had done and it had cleared, and I
got into I got the invoice for this month that
I've already paid, and it cleared again. There was nothing
on the invoice that said, hey one of them wasn't right,
or your little off on one of them. Nothing. I

(56:55):
don't get a call, I get nothing. So going back
through it, they said, adding it all up, but certainly
I can get the math on it was sixty four
dollars off and they counted that sixty four dollars deficit
to that meter and they cut it off. And I
was like, wow, that was a that seemed extreme. Notify

(57:16):
you or anything. Now, I didn't notify me nothing and
so quick. Yeah, and plus it was not you know,
it wasn't like you didn't send it in what you
sent in your your Apparently I didn't add them up right,
I don't know. But the next invoice came that didn't
say we're carrying over your deficit from the last but nothing,
no indication of anything being wrong and both checks clearing,

(57:36):
So I don't I don't know they you know, you
threw me under the bush rightfully, so, but they I
think it was a little more complicated that matter of
fact that they're not really sure whine got cut off.

Gary went as far as to come contact somebody he
knew with the same area code in that area of
Georgia to start to start texting Speedy warning him not
to go over it, and they portrayed it like they

They're the cousins, they're not married.

See the first thought, the first thought that goes into
his mind anytime we do anything, Hey, I wonder I'm

He thought that that Carolyn and Larry and should have
come up. Hey, wait a minute, Speedy's coming. We need
to prank it. Yeah, you know that's instead of being

(01:14:05):
very nice like they are going to come on. Are
you involved in the fireworks that went off outside Speedies?
You're not.

Speaker 14 (01:14:10):
Don't say anything about it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
It just a matter of fact, is it? You know?
You say it inside the prank community. Nobody likes an
empty skim, that's right. Can't be telling secret trade secrets, right,
trade secret? But is it true that you had something
blow up outside the Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:14:30):
Yes, but what.

Hey, Rick here, enjoy another best of hour from the
Rick Berger Show.

Speaker 3 (01:17:52):
Looted with caffeine and ready for another hour. This is
the Rick Butcher's Show.

Speaker 1 (01:18:00):
Thanks for being with us, America. Fox seats filled up
as they're hanging out with us today, Speedy, Greg and
Adler all here. Thank you for being with us as
we work our way in and navigate the waters of
a wacky, wild, unpredictable world. We thank you for being
with us again. We'll try to get another round of

(01:18:22):
phone calls in this hour. I realized that we're doing
phone segments where we take maybe two calls and we
run out of time. So we'll we'll try to do
better about that as we roll through this hour. Maybe
you look at at Heyburg as well. Yeah, the last
one though, you got to understand, I mean we were
You just can't bring up wrestling, expect us not to
expand on. No, boy, this is can you imagine? Here

(01:18:47):
comes the headline. Now, I want you to imagine. Imagine
they're looking for you, They're looking for your daughter, They're
looking for any female in your family. Richmond Heights police
using facial recognition to identify women. Anybody want to guess

(01:19:08):
what they're looking for and what they did. Tworking on
a police cary, not just not just tworking, not just
talking publicly, not just not no, no, what kind of prints?
So facial recognition. Greg on the police card talking on

(01:19:32):
a police car the police in Northeast Ohio. They turned
to facial recognition. I'm with you, Greg, be looking at
the wrong uh, to track down several dancers that were
captured back in June by a dashboard camera on Richmond

(01:19:52):
Heights police cruiser showed multiple women, multiple women tworking on
top of the cop car.

Speaker 6 (01:20:01):
I can't show any of this video UK still from
from Greg.

Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
They said that one one of the women climbed up
on on the and Greg, and this is the word
they unfortunately, this is the name of it. One climbed
up on the push bumper. Oh yeah, I'm sorry that's
the name, but it is. Yeah, So that's the bumper
they can push cars with. Okay, now, I got you
trying to help them. And by the way, I know

(01:20:27):
you used two hands to push on that one and
the pushing direction. Uh. They and another climbed up and
began dancing on the actual hood of the car. So Greg,
I'm gonna step out. I believe alcohol may be involved. Greg,
there's there's Greg. Now, let me tell you this. You've
heard that you've heard that that baby got much back.

(01:20:47):
There's a small dent wow in the in the car
and also a little crease as well. Uh they a
large crease. Yeah, they didn't decide to fix it at
the time. There was a pretty significant scratch as well,
the hills and high hills. Yeah. So police say the software,
the facial recognition uh is called Clearview AI, and they're

(01:21:12):
going to see if they can't identify. I'm with you, Greg,
I don't. I don't think the faces are gonna help
much here, but uh well, okay, and then and then
that will be entered into the the database. And I'm
gonna guess if you're somebody that that makes decisions so

(01:21:32):
bad that would include twerking and then damaging with your
twarkness police cars a police car. I bet when we
go to the database, we're gonna find you. Yeah, you probably,
I'm gonna probably. I'm gonna bet they're in there.

Speaker 5 (01:21:47):
I don't know why people that that really shouldn't be
doing this are always drone to do it. But everybody
in this video shouldn't be doing that. That's why no
one should but they really shouldn't.

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
If you guys want ten seconds of it, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:22:00):
I mean can you show any of this? Greg, of course,
is begging for it. Just the audio.

Speaker 2 (01:22:05):
I'll just do audio. I won't do I won't do
the video.

Speaker 1 (01:22:08):
Okay, I'll just do audio.

Speaker 2 (01:22:10):
Here's the lady, the news lady having to say the
word working now.

Speaker 1 (01:22:13):
Back here at home in Cleveland, A wild scene caught
on camera. Some people are in somewking trouble. I didn't
want to read it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
Dances been around for a.

Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
Decade, been around for decades, past decay with the officer inside. No,
just arrest everybody. I don't think that's right, because they
said that the dash cam recorded it. Wait a minute,
but we wouldn't have been in the car. Oh yeah,
he's in there. Well I don't know that he didn't.

(01:22:47):
Why why why don't we haven't looked for I don't know,
I don't know we should. We wouldn't be looking for
people we arrested. Please look at the confused. Look at
the title tworking trouble after dirty Dance on cruiser. That's
quite a title. Fool. He couldn't have been in the car,
or he would have just gotten out and at least
arrested one.

Speaker 6 (01:23:06):
Maybe he is too ski I think this news lady
knows probably more than us guessing, but that's just my guess.
I think it's because there were three people in a
large crowd. The police officer wasn't able to eat out, so.

Speaker 1 (01:23:17):
Some gut to wat jump. That's what I took off.
That gotcha. And they did say one of them dropped
it because it was hot and got on right, and
so I don't know. Yeah, I guess maybe he was overwhelmed.
He couldn't get the cuffs on that. Yeah, you know,
I get it. Yeah, that's awful, they said, they said.
The policeman said he didn't watch this for about ninety seconds.
Then he got out and the rest every that's all

(01:23:37):
he could think. This is why you should do this,
he said, about three minutes after this, I said.

Speaker 2 (01:23:40):
So, he said, is that we got it? We got
ourselves a core code fifty. We got dance too much
booty in the pants?

Speaker 1 (01:23:48):
I would I would wonder what the charge is? Is
a charge I'm damaging? Like I did? They throw in
a little lewdiness? What what? What? What is all this charge?
We got loued, we got damn midge. Okay, okay, we
got too much booty in the pants.

Speaker 13 (01:24:03):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:24:03):
The fact they picked the car with someone in it
is amazing, right.

Speaker 2 (01:24:07):
I think that makes it funnier. It's like, ha ha, look.

Speaker 1 (01:24:09):
At a cop car. Yeah, but you know, if you
go over and do anything that damages a cop car,
especially now that we're finding out with the policeman in it,
the decision making there is just so bad.

Speaker 2 (01:24:20):
And they don't like it when you do that.

Speaker 1 (01:24:22):
In so many ways. So they so I don't know,
and it does say.

Speaker 5 (01:24:29):
The crazy part is that not only was it all
caught on dash cam, but the officer was inside the car.
It says it right here. Okay, here's the officer explaining
what happened.

Speaker 7 (01:24:40):
I got audio.

Speaker 1 (01:24:41):
Oh wow, right here, Yeah, it's me from mine. Yeah,
here we go.

Speaker 10 (01:24:46):
A group of females walked by the cruiser and then
returned back around this way. One of them climbed up
on the pushbumper and began to dance on the pushbumper,
and then another two females came walking around the other
way as well, climbed up on the side of the car,
standing on and dancing on the hood, and then another
one then climbed up on the wheel and then onto

(01:25:07):
the hood of the cruiser as well.

Speaker 2 (01:25:10):
Everywhere.

Speaker 5 (01:25:11):
Oh my goodness, it does look like maybe it was
overwhelmed with just he couldn't rest one.

Speaker 1 (01:25:15):
Sound like you tried.

Speaker 6 (01:25:16):
One of the girls fell off the cruiser. I've got
audio and video of it if you want to see it. Yes,
I got audio and video like that quick day saying.

Speaker 21 (01:25:26):
Thank you, hey, you lunch for that something else.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
But that was set up right there. Look, you gotta
applaud that set up right.

Speaker 2 (01:25:45):
That poor ladies singing the national anthem.

Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
That's terrible. I can't watch that about ten more times. Yes,
my wallet is in the car grey. Of course it is.
Of course it is. So I don't know. That's funny.
Well done, Greg, you said, yeah, oah, so you're get

(01:26:09):
in trouble I did. What would you get in trouble for?

Speaker 13 (01:26:11):

Speaker 1 (01:27:52):
So this picture on text Nation, Gosh, thank you what's
wrong with this picture? Uh? The fun you guys are
having with Ai there it is those of you can
see it on if you're watching on Tube city there
with the tubers. Please email that to me there there

(01:28:13):
they You remember when for some reason Gary thought that
Adam looked like this Western it was an actor back
in the day, John orthing like that. Gary had his name.
Of course he did, Hey, I mean it's I think, yeah,
because I didn't say that wasn't it was? And now

(01:28:34):
somebody has they've taken our our picture, our team picture,
the one Adler loves, and they have put Adler at
the end. It looks more like Marty Feldman. That is
what it looks like from a young Frankenstein. But h
and Adler's loving him.

Speaker 5 (01:28:49):
Now understand the staff picture that we chose. None of
us really realized he didn't like his.

Speaker 1 (01:28:55):
No, jack he looks like, I don't look like that, Jackie.
Pull up Marty Feldman.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
Charles Manson. Maybe maybe Charles Manson in his good years.

Speaker 1 (01:29:10):
But he was still written songs.

Speaker 5 (01:29:13):
We have the big blown up staff picture that we
use and spread up on.

Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
We have that in our hall. Yeah, he didn't like it.
The box seats.

Speaker 5 (01:29:21):
We walked him in there and they saw it and
they just couldn't get enough of it. Now, none of
us realized he didn't like it or he had some
weird look on his face.

Speaker 1 (01:29:28):
We thought it was a good staff picture.

Speaker 6 (01:29:29):
Oh, I do think that AI picture is modeled after
Marty Feldman, not Jacqueline.

Speaker 1 (01:29:34):
That's what it looks like. That looks exactly, Yeah, it
really does. That does look like Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:29:39):
Does it looks like?

Speaker 1 (01:29:40):
Yeah, it looks like. That's a weird looking it's a
weird looking.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
Yeah, thank you, that's my point. That's my.

Speaker 1 (01:29:50):
No. We mean you're unique. That's a better word. God
made you special, it's not. I think that's a great raise.

Speaker 2 (01:30:01):
Your raised your foot.

Speaker 6 (01:30:02):
If you got web toes, we can that's good.

Speaker 2 (01:30:09):
So he was was ego or whatever in.

Speaker 1 (01:30:10):
Your Yeah, I didn't. I didn't realize that. Yeah, that's
just like him. It did.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
Agreed to agree to disagree.

Speaker 1 (01:30:21):
You do you think he looks more like Marty Feldman
or or Jackie No? I think in Marty. That's a
good guys. No, you don't. You don't look anything like
then that picture.

Speaker 5 (01:30:33):
If you could put the staff picture in him side
by side, I'd like to see that before I make
a decision.

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
Yeah, John Malcovia, Yeah, don't let that body. All right,
A couple of Hayburg this year. There we go, everybody
from you the audience, send him in. If he put
hay Bird a bird in the subject line, you may

(01:30:59):
make get to the show. This comes from Stephanie Hey Bird,
Hey Birge. First of all, love the love the new
show go back at least twenty five years with the
old show. I'm currently typing this email while sitting on
I sixty five north between Verbena and Birmingham on the
way home to Hackelberg from Deston, Florida. Who there are
no accidents or there are any row construction? Just stop traffic? Please?

(01:31:23):
Can we have someone with some sense figure this out?
How hard is it? Can people not just drive? We
are ready Rick for governor? What do you say? God
bless all of you. Well, you know, I think I
can do more good here, you know. Yeah, if they
would just let me handle airports in this this I
sixty five traffic situation. I can get this. I just

(01:31:44):
don't don't get it. Well, there's already a lot of
volume there. But I will say to her point the
volume is is you know, there's we're gonna work on
that and needs to be widened, but then we're gonna
have to deal with row construction. They're doing a little
bit of that right now. But also some of you
are not helping. Some of you would need to drive better.

Speaker 5 (01:32:02):
I saw something for the first time that I hadn't
I've never seen and I've done a lot of traveling,
not as much as Greg every day. I saw a
flatbed truck in the left lane. Nobody in front of them.
They were going about sixty and everybody's trying to panic
getting around them, and I'm thinking, well, it's just you

(01:32:22):
be patient. They'll get over. Never got over, stayed in
the left lane cruising. Come up beside them and they're texting, oh,
I've never seen a truck or text.

Speaker 1 (01:32:31):
That doesn't that don't have much? You got too much?
Like well you got too much? Truck be doing that?

Speaker 5 (01:32:35):
Yes, empty flatbed left lane, way slower than than traffic
and texting.

Speaker 1 (01:32:41):
Hey hey, and let's let's just say, if you're going
to move a manufactured home, okay, boy, sixty five's out.
You gotta find some good you gotta find some other
way to go. Okay, I mean not this time, maybe overnight.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
Can you do that at night?

Speaker 1 (01:32:54):
Yeah, middle of the night. Yes, yeah that we said,
well you talk about that. Uh okay, Hey bird, Hey bird,
this is from Adam. It says, well, I'm afraid you
may have to do a new song. My wife found
a baby kitten there's only days old, under my family's
lake house. She brought it home tonight and went immediately
to Walmart to stock up supplies to bottle feed it.

(01:33:16):
Like Greg, oh no, we've never even been cat people,
and yet here I am bottle feeding a kitten that
won't stop crying since she left, and our dogs completely
freaked out. He didn't know what to do. I can
only imagine what the next six weeks look like. Can
I get a key to the camp house please? I
got to get out of it. Oh wow, I'll help

(01:33:36):
Gary with bush hogging while i'm there. Just be glad.
What about the Dane cat? This is just one. You know,
we're not really hurting for cats. No, I mean, I
appreciate the effort just to be kind to something, but
nobody's going to start hollering we lost a cat. You know,
there's so many out there. There's so many. I'll show

(01:33:59):
up Greg this one m hey bird, Hey bird. I'll
go ahead and tell you Greg, this is from Tim
because you'll want to know that here in a minute.
Really enjoy the show. I catch the majority of the show.
I'm a podcast archive person, but there are times when
I watch it on YouTube. I have a question for you.
What in the world's up with your brother? I mean,

(01:34:21):
I thought him as a true Southern man. Well, a
lot of women have caught him read in that sexy
First and foremost, he continually slams the king of country music,
George Strait. Yeah, because he's horrible. That ended of itself
is blasphemy. But then, if I remember correctly, Greg took
a shot at Alan Jackson as well. Oh yeah, I'm
from the Noon in Georgia area. That's Allen's hometown. I mean,

(01:34:42):
you can't help that. He's an icon. I might understand
it if he was some Yankee or something, but he's
supposed to be a Southern man, at least he says
he is. I'm not sure about that one though. Then
the other day he was slamming Chick fil A about
their peach milkshakes. I'm a Georgia boy, and he struck
a nerve with that one. Peaches are the caviar of
the South, and when you put him in a milkshake,

(01:35:03):
it's pure bliss. I'm trying my best to hang on
with the show, but I tell you one thing. Any
more of this stuff from Greg, uh, well, let me
just I hope he gets his act together. By the way,
Leonard Skinner's got a few good songs. I'll admit that.
But you never never hear me slamming Leonard Scanner the
way Greg did. Alan Jackson are the king. Yeah, you

(01:35:24):
throw him in there, and and and George Straight. Here's
what I want to say to Greg right now. He
needs to keep his piehole shut. By the way, I'm
the same age as you, so don't think I'm some
youngster coming at you. Well, he's gonna take a pope
that you was in the world. But kick over George Straight.
I mean it ain't worth that. I mean, this guy,

(01:35:45):
this tim a little bit him and then Peaches and
Alan Jackson, I guess can stay in George. I mean
he said he said he thought you drew Southern man.
I mean, look, I'm sorry, I think it's boring. Okay, Greg,
still going it's worse not and again I'll stick to
my The majority of people feel like they have to

(01:36:06):
like George Strait like they somehow or less if they
don't like it. I was a good person. You don't
think anybody's icon he is. I just thought he's boring.
You think he gave all that money in the text
of situation, He probably did. He's got money, probably exaggerated you.

Speaker 2 (01:36:25):
How much did you give Greg?

Speaker 1 (01:36:26):
I gave eighty five dollars?

Speaker 15 (01:36:28):
No, you did it.

Speaker 1 (01:36:30):
You did it up at McDonald's.

Speaker 4 (01:36:33):
He is the Rick Burgers Show.

Speaker 1 (01:36:43):
Hey, Rick, here, you're listening to a Rick Burgers show.
Best up our We're back Monday, August the eleventh, so enjoy.

Speaker 3 (01:36:55):
He has known Greg Burgess for his entire life. Upset
Rick Butchers, y'all pray for me.

Speaker 1 (01:37:04):
Uh here we are and we're back. So boy, somebody's
just look at that right there on text Nation. You're
forgetting that. Greg also ripped Bill Gaithers. That's not Greg rip.
Think you did but no, I didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:37:26):
You just did it.

Speaker 1 (01:37:27):
Accounts somebody's singing. He's extremely successful. I know you could
make fun of his singing because you've probably never heard
him sing. You hate a lot of these guys around there.
You've been to see the Gaithers win, I've seen him
on television. Okay, well Crabs if you round it up
at McDonald, Jason and Jason Crabb, one of his brothers

(01:37:47):
is on there. Lisa makes me watch. Okay, pretty good? Now, Bill,
are the people around there? Everybody? Hey, Greg, that's help it.

Speaker 2 (01:37:59):
Don't make a hair spray sound, Greg, We know what
the hairspray sound.

Speaker 1 (01:38:02):
Anyways, you hero Andy talking about uh? Talk about Andy Andrews. Yeah,
his word numbers are huge. He's worked. We will get
through many times. Yeah, you have not. No, I have not,
but maybe maybe I've watched the show. Mm hmmm. I
like you give gospel music, but that's not true statement

(01:38:24):
though I'd.

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
Like to see you give the Lord a little bit more.

Speaker 1 (01:38:31):
Right. I ain't not there. You hear that. It's Trew dreads.
He can't. There's no way it. It's like a gospel
Jean Simmons, he's often running. We here Jean's hair does. Yeah,
I wish you had that hair. You kind of have that.

(01:38:53):
I need it. That's a fact. Would you call it
back like that? If I had it?

Speaker 4 (01:38:57):
I would release Look crack.

Speaker 1 (01:39:00):
Yeah, I'm good. Okay, settle dig I'm telling you don't
want to wait off you think the country, if you
think the George. If you think the George, straight fans
will come after you. Oh, don't stir that southern gospel.
But I'm not. You are wrongly accusing me. No, you
just you're doing it now, No even say about the music.

(01:39:21):
All right, So I don't like southern gospel. Yeah, okay,
I want to ask you. Do you said I didn't
want I said I didn't mean it like that? What do?

Speaker 9 (01:39:31):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:39:31):
How do you mean it? That's what we don't get. Yeah,
I don't remember what I said. When you talk about
somebody's hair and stuff like that, do you think he cares?
Bill Gaither, No, you don't care. Bill Gaither has done fine.
Bill Gaither, he gets too upside. I'll come in here
and buy every one of them and fires. So on

(01:39:52):
this on this music note, okay, you start. It reminds
me of something, Okay, So I can't leave this. But
Paul McCartney is going on tour again. They don't he's
eighty three now. Not a good idea, okay. So Sherry
sees it and she goes I didn't realize Paul McCartney

(01:40:14):
was still performing. I said, baby's eighty three. She said, well,
he's got a full blown tour. She goes, Rick, I mean,
we if you have we have a chance to see
Paul McCartney, one of the greatest music icons, arguably as
big as anything there's ever been. And we're gonna have
a chance. And he's going like to Atlanta or Nashville.
You're not You're not gonna put yourself she goes. She goes,

(01:40:36):
we should go and see Paul. Paul. It's just it's
just iconic and pulled in. But I said to her,
I said, Cherry, let me, let me just talk to
you just for a second. And you know that, you
know my my concert tank has no more fuel in it.
And then she said, well, just because you've been in
more concerts than me doesn't mean And I said, no, no.
If I listen, I'm all in if it's something you
want to do. But listen to me. Now, you you're

(01:40:56):
you're ignoring eighty three. That eighty three is big. That's
a big number. Okay, okay? And I said, I don't
do you where to want to go see any performer
at eighty three, and I said, because we could go
in there, and we could we could really mess up
the memories. Now, if you want to go see Paul McCartney,
maybe even even at sixty. Oh no, he's doing full

(01:41:19):
blown tour arenas. Wow, okay and setting them out in
no time. Of course he is, I mean selling them out.
Great catalog icon. Probably my well Way is my favorite Beatle. Yeah,
I do too. I like Paul McCartney and Wings. Matter
of fact, I went to concert guru Mark Garnett and
I said, give me the catalog in his set list,

(01:41:41):
because marklell know things like this, And he goes, what
I'm gonna tell you it's gonna be, It's gonna be
waited to the Beatles. I said, well, to see, that's
a problem for me. I'd rather be waited to solo
stuff and Paul McCartney and Wings. I would much rather
be in the arena and hear this incredible band that
I know that he has do Band on the Run.
Then you know I want to hold your hand. Okay.

(01:42:04):
So so anyway, because can you imagine the production of
the you know, those three different starts of Band on
the Run, and that's a musical production that is very impressive.
But eighty three, I just want to say again about
eighty three. Let me give you respective Here are Mom's
eighty three. I know, Greg, I think a pictures. Mom's
got a tour this year. She's playing a lot of dates.

(01:42:25):
I know, you know what I'm saying. And she was
a really good musician. She's eighty three. Is the voice
still there now? Garnet told me. He said, I went
to see the Rolling Stones when they were all in
their late seventies and early No, no, let me tell you,
he said, Believe it or not, they were actually better
in some ways because they they're sober, which when I

(01:42:47):
saw him younger, they weren't. He goes. They have great
musicians mixed in with them. They can afford the best stage,
the best lights, the best sound. He goes, it actually
was was pretty good. And he goes in. But Carl
and he will be surrounded by some of the best
musicians in the world. Oh, I know that, and he said,
And he can mainly still sing full voice at eighty three,

(01:43:09):
and he's got one of those pure voices. Enjoy yourself
when you go, Oh, I know you, that's where you
go you're in. What I'm what I think may happen
is it'll be impossible to get tickets. That'll help, because
they said these things are selling out like that.

Speaker 5 (01:43:23):
I think I saw November and thirties in Atlanta, correct,
back to back.

Speaker 1 (01:43:27):
Shows his age. You can they can always postpone. Oh no,
show you a lot of those, Rodester, I worried about that.
I said, share you. Well, we can go to all
this trouble. Get a hotel, plan to go see Brooks
for the weekend. Make the concert the last thing I
can take Monday off, I said, But he's eighty three,
and we're gonna hear is he's got pneumonia. Yeah, you
know what, it's already taking John McCarthy took John MacArthur out. Yeah,

(01:43:49):
but today, and you've got Paul with I'm just saying
it can happen. I mean, that's that's a lot of
tour for an eighty three old man. I don't care
how I get to shape your eighty three. There's only
so much you can do with eighty three. He's a
vibrant eighty three, I'll give you that. And he's gonna
sing those things sitting down at the keyboards when he
get the base out you think, or what he sit
on your But he's not gonna run around a lot.
He's not gonna run around probably not probably, but you

(01:44:11):
but he never ran around a lot, That's what I mean.
There won't be that much difference, right, It wouldn't be
like you know, you go see you know, like David
Lee Roth, Yeah, you know who's part of him running
around and all that. But we're not expecting Paul McCartney
to run around. But I guess what I'm asking you is,
he's such a musical icon. If I can see him
one more time before he goes on the end, or

(01:44:32):
I going and I'm going in, should I go see him?
Just for the iconic level of the stadiums it's an arena, Yeah,
but I gotta have a good seat. I can't be
up in the rafters. Well you got to get busy then.
But it's it's gonna it's gonna hurt over your world.
Let me tell you that there's a little bit of me,
you know, because yeah, you know, I don't mind because

(01:44:54):
you don't want to. I have no desire on earth
to go through all that hassle to go see Paul.
I know, I know, but is there a certain iconic thing.
I mean, I like his catalog. I don't even mind
somebody knocking on a dough. Just go home, play the music,
nobody ringing the bill. You know Serry wants to experience. Well,

(01:45:14):
if Sheerry wants to go and she stays with it,
I'm in. I know.

Speaker 5 (01:45:19):
So you need to get them now. You can always
you can, you can get sell them back something and.

Speaker 1 (01:45:23):
You know me though, the hassle selling them back. But
you know it's not that you remember last year?

Speaker 6 (01:45:28):
Wow, Atlanta tickets are on sale to day. Oh, I
know already when you're talking about it started ten forty
Garnet's on it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:36):
But you remember, I've already, I've already. I looked. I
looked at the ticket brokers because they already had them. Okay, yeah,
they get them ticket broker, ticket broker on the floor,
on the floor, seventeen hundred dollars a ticket. I wouldn't
pay that. Go see Elvis come back from the day.
Who does he think she is? Taylor? Did you know?

(01:45:57):
I looked at at they have these platinum things. We
go to the sound checking, all that ten thousand dollars. Oh,
come on, what you go in for that some kind
of platinum experience or something. Can you believe that? Yeah?
I bet they won't. Hey, I bet they won't be
any left I don't fault the man if if he
can sell out the arena at that ticket process, been

(01:46:17):
good for him, That's what.

Speaker 6 (01:46:18):
The here's a recent set list from Because I do
this all the time, I'm probably probably Garnett as well.
Set list dot FM and you can look up previous
set lists of bands.

Speaker 1 (01:46:29):
Oh he's out the Garnet does that a second.

Speaker 2 (01:46:31):
When they when they start, you know, even like all
kinds of stuff. But set let's looks pretty solid.

Speaker 4 (01:46:36):
I will say.

Speaker 6 (01:46:37):
You got some two Wings songs near the beginning, uh,
hard Day's Night, and then some Wings let me roll it?

Speaker 1 (01:46:44):
Why's he gotta let it roll it on? There? I
don't want to hear that. No, any of these A
lot of songs.

Speaker 6 (01:46:51):
Yes, he's playing Blackbird. Come on, I wish you would
Lady Madonna straight into jet Are you kidding?

Speaker 2 (01:46:57):
Come on?

Speaker 1 (01:46:58):
I thought that the Left late bought it. By the way,
somebody said they're in the queue. They're one hundred and
twenty eight thousand in line. Oh good, Here there's no way,
that's one hundred and eight thousand. There's your out, Honey.
I wish we could go, but there's so lout on it.
I mean, there are no Backstreet Boys at the sphere.

Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 18 (01:54:46):
They it was still good, but she doesn't have the
power yeah, sting.

Speaker 1 (01:54:52):
Or standing because you know she was performing.

Speaker 18 (01:54:54):
From she was staying, she was standing, she was and
her voice was still good. But you know she couldn't
get the deep down powers.

Speaker 1 (01:55:08):
She gave us all she had. She's just out of gas, legend.

Speaker 18 (01:55:12):
And she but Nancy was great on guitar. She still
got it.

Speaker 1 (01:55:17):
It's the singing that you have to be careful about.
You know, it's hard, especially somebody sings that powerful yeah's
and you know this is that line. You know you
you messing with memories.

Speaker 5 (01:55:30):
Let me ask you a question. Can you ever go?
Can you approach this like, Hey, we're just going. It's
going to be entertainment. Might the quality obviously is not
going to be as good, but we're going to I'm
going to do something that my wife won't.

Speaker 1 (01:55:43):
I mean, is it no? No, I'm fine with that.
I do that. We all do that quite a bit.
Sure this on this one, can you chalk it up
as hey, we're just going and there's no way you know,
you like when I went with shere and she wanted
to go to Toronto and see that band. I didn't care.
I didn't care. You know that I appreciate the musicianship.
We're talking about Paul McCartney here. Okay, Okay, so it'll

(01:56:05):
be hard for me to separate. I don't want to
see him do poorly. I don't want to see him
do I don't. I don't want to see that. Okay,
it's too big an ick on, you see what I mean.
That's almost impossible. But can I just lok into me
and Sweetie Buyer on a great day and having a
good time. I can get there, but I'll always be
worried about him doing well.

Speaker 1 (02:00:00):
No, oh really, yeah, I mean you say you're really fast.

Speaker 2 (02:00:04):
I'm doing I'm doing a fast.

Speaker 1 (02:00:06):
I wonder how fast you can run with that?

Speaker 2 (02:00:09):
Man, We'll see how long. I've just started, Like right now,
this is it?

Speaker 13 (02:00:15):
Right?

Speaker 2 (02:00:15):
Usually I would eat right now, and I'm not gonna
so pretty deep.

Speaker 1 (02:00:20):
Take little bites. Wow, you make your set little goes
at the beginning.

Speaker 2 (02:00:24):
Yeah, I'm pretty deep into this fast.

Speaker 6 (02:00:26):
About four minutes in.

Speaker 2 (02:00:28):
It's pretty rough so far.

Speaker 1 (02:00:30):
Yeah, so we'll we'll work through that today. And hey,
we're here for you, buddy. Uh so yeah, if you remember,
every time you get hungry, you think of the Lord. Yes,
that's how you do it. Uh And whatever you're you've
been praying about, that's right. You just started, just started
four minutes in. Almost there.

Speaker 2 (02:00:50):
Black coffee is okay.

Speaker 1 (02:00:52):
I'm on one of those always. Yeah, black coffee is
all right, And that's actually in the Second Corinthians. Okay,
all right. So one of the things I noticed, you know,
we continue this whole dynamic, which I think is one
of God's best jokes, and this is the whole concept
of men and women. You know, I will now make

(02:01:12):
for a man, the perfect helper, and he made woman
and then we had a false so everything kind of
got out of hand. It's so funny watching the wonderful,
beautiful differences, and y'all will get this immediately. By the way,
I want to announce for the first time since Speedy
and his wife have been coming to church where Sherry
and I go, and his son, Speedy and I actually

(02:01:34):
saw each other and spoke Sunday. Hey, yeah, it startled Sherry. Yeah,
it was interesting. Yeah, right, and boy, he came in
on a big day. Yeah, came in on a big day,
had a lot of responsibility, was able to witness something.

Speaker 7 (02:01:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:01:46):
So we'll talk about that. But one of the things
that goes into what Speedy will talk about and we'll
mention is that this is one of those things where now,
back when you when I had loads of kids, kind
of the world that's in I remember if anything called
you to church early and you had to go separate vehicles.
You really, if we're honest, you kind of dug it. Hey, uh,

(02:02:11):
you know I've got to get to church early. I'm
not gonna be I'll just meet you all there. You know,
the freedom that used to come with that. But now
when you're married and you're empty nesters, it's really just
kind of a hassle because now you've got two vehicles
and all that. And so so I told her, because
there's some things that Speedy saw I had to do
at the church, I said, hey, I got to be
there like a whole hour earlier than we normally are there.

(02:02:35):
And I said, so I'm just going to drive the
truck and I'll meet you there.

Speaker 7 (02:02:39):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:02:39):
And now, Scherry and I have a record that we
did break yesterday. Sarry and I have a record. As
y'all know it even happened. You had to compete me
up for work. If we ever meet somewhere and get
in one of the cars, we never remember to go
get the other car. We always go home, go in
the garage and forget we have two cars. Yeah, I
gotta go back. So we did break a record Sudday

(02:02:59):
by remembering to go back and get get her car. Okay,
So anyway, this is but this is one of those
and this is not some big you know, gonna make
the best of album or anything like that, But it
was just one of these moments with women and men
that are so interesting because all of you would have
been like, hey, yeah, and sure you looked at me
like you know that that look they give you. So
she gets she gets to she gets to say. She

(02:03:22):
comes in frantic, okay, getting everything going, getting the row out.
You know, she kind of directs the class. And I
was teaching on Sunday and whatever, and I said hey,
and she came out. I said what I said, you
see my parkings butt And she goes and she goes,
what I said, you see that parking spot I got,
And she goes, I don't, I don't care what I said, babe.

(02:03:44):
I'm right up front, I said. I said, I'm not
just upfront, I'm up front, facing out in the shape
in the shade. I said, I got the best parking
spot in the entire church. And she goes, okay, and
then just went along her way, and I'm like, you've
always wanted that. I didn't get much on that at all.

Speaker 2 (02:04:01):
I mean, okay, yeah, it's an impressed No.

Speaker 1 (02:04:04):
I mean, this is not just a spot, speedy saw.
It's see you noticed it? Is it the first thing
I noticed? But beside the handicapped spot, regular spot? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
And you got a shade tree handy met. Yeah, and
you know how they roll everybody out at church. It's
a big night mare. I'm facing out. I don't even
have to back out of a parking spot. I'm on

(02:04:25):
the curb. Those over there right behind handy one. I mean,
if the only people that can get a better spot
than me, you have to be handicapped. You and and
I was like I were pregnant. I was so excited.
Now pregnant people don't have one this good. Oh wow,
senior citizens don't have one this good. Only they should, right,
they were senior citizens passing his truck getting to their spot.

(02:04:48):
Oh yeah, you'll see what the senior citizens. But we
put something, We put something in the budget. Yeah, listen,
we put something in the budget that finally made us
all start worrying about the seniors. We bought two golf carts.
We got two of those big old golf cars and
them showing Rick. I don't know if that means you
don't care about it, No, no, no, it means we don't
have to be concerned about the meaning that's taking care

(02:05:08):
of We've taken care of them. That's what I meant.
It's resolved, not that we didn't care I mean what
you said, you didn't care. We knew what you mean.
I mean concerned. We don't have to be concerned about
that because they're handled and we sell you. Hey, can
you imagine the life of those go cart volunteers. Oh
get told me stories on the way. Oh my yeah, yeah,

(02:05:29):
I guarantee they're told that no matter what our system is,
it could be better. Oh yeah, yeah, you know it.

Speaker 5 (02:05:36):
So it can only carry the card at one time,
can only carry so many, So you're leaving somebody behind
picked us up.

Speaker 1 (02:05:43):
Yeah, somebody happens. So the others in that truck. But
I even had share even asked me about this parking thing.
So then we go out to eat afterwards, and we
take my truck whe because I got the best spot.
She's like, I don't like riding that truck. I said, well,
you can't beat that spot, and she gave in. She goes,
know that that that is? I said, you think we
can get that right with? What were you're You're well

(02:06:03):
there baby, Yeah. So we get to the restaurant, she goes, well,
just park. So we park and I'm walking up Lessen.
She goes, well, and I said that they were better
spots available, and she goes, why do you give thee? Yeah?
What is the what is your obsession with this? But
I finally just stopped talking to her and went talk
to guys about it. You just see where I park
today and all the other guys like, man, man, I
saw that? Is that your? Is that your fifteen hundred?

(02:06:24):
You better believe it is? You know what they said,
only the handicap people beat you. I said, that's right. Yes,
guys are just different.

Speaker 5 (02:06:31):
US guys are just like when I backed in the spot,
j C looks at me and says, I think I
could have gotten that in two turns.

Speaker 1 (02:06:37):
Oh, And I'm like, well, no.

Speaker 5 (02:06:39):
No, I got the trailer hitch on the back the
ball like you got to allow for Oh.

Speaker 1 (02:06:43):
He goes, oh, yeah, you're right. But then that funny,
that's the first thing GUS guys think about.

Speaker 2 (02:06:48):
Appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (02:06:49):
My case is made you notice the spot without man?
The first thing I know? Yeah, the traffic.

Someone put on text Nation and I'd like to get
some clarification on this. Okay, So I am sixty years old.
I will be sixty one, Lord Willing in October. Okay,
well that's fifty nine. You don't need to be chiming

(02:10:16):
fifty nine. So a minute ago, when I talked about
the great parking Spot, somebody said, well, you're talking about
senior citizens, Ricky. You are a senior citizen. But am I?
I don't think I am. See, I always thought sixty
five is where that started. Did Now when you go
and they try to give you these discounts, I think
we're in well. And remember I remember I checked the

(02:10:37):
mail lately. Oh yeah, by the way, it happened. It
happened again this weekend inside our church, the older people
of the ministry is called legacy, which is a nice
way of saying old people. Yeah, and they keep sending
me emails, and I keep saying, I don't think I'm
in this group yet. I mean, I'm only sixty. Why

(02:10:57):
am I getting the legacy emails? Why am I being
invited to the legacy luncheon?

Speaker 3 (02:11:02):
You know?

Speaker 1 (02:11:02):
And so it does hurt. I don't understand that I
haven't gotten any discounts yet at sixty.

Speaker 6 (02:11:11):
Sixty five and older is generally in the United States what.

Speaker 2 (02:11:17):
Senior citizen means.

Speaker 1 (02:11:18):
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (02:11:19):
Social Security benefits can be claimed starting at age sixty two.

Speaker 1 (02:11:24):
That is true, because Social Security just told me what
I want to receive. WHOA, that looks like a great investment.
Yeah wow, good luck surviving on that. When I saw
how much I had put in and how much they're
gonna give me, it'll make you want to throw up.

Speaker 15 (02:11:35):
No.

Speaker 1 (02:11:36):
Yeah, what kind of scam is that?

Speaker 2 (02:11:39):
The government's so good at managing money?

Speaker 1 (02:11:41):
You aren't they?

Speaker 7 (02:11:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:11:42):
Yeah, And you remember when when George W. Bush just
wanted you to be able to have some of it
and invested yourself, and everybody jumped up and down lost
their minds. No, I want the government to squander it. Yeah,
don't let me do it crazy. Don't let me talk
with somebody in the private sector that could actually get
me a much greater return. But anyway, so, uh so,
I sixty two, so security. I don't think you can

(02:12:04):
pull me in yet. If I can't even get so security.
And then and I'm not sixty five, I'm not even
sixty two. I don't think you call me senior season.

Speaker 5 (02:12:11):
You're going to have to ask them what when the
start date is on that because I apparently it's sixty
for the church.

Speaker 1 (02:12:18):
I'm just telling you, and they are sending me the email.
So welcome to the legacy. Six zero has got to
be it.

Speaker 6 (02:12:24):
It's got to be I think at six oh you
you kind of you belong in legacy.

Speaker 1 (02:12:30):
Well legacy, oh okay, okay, but okay, that's thirty nine.
Let me let me throw this at you. Tell me
the way you walk with a limp, you know you
limp into the treesy look limp. And yeah, it's just
your kind of standard. You know. Did you see it
Sunday like you hit it? Well, I knew, I knew
what to look me in over my head over oh yeah.
But anyway, so I did. But I will say this,

(02:12:53):
but I.

Speaker 6 (02:12:53):
Don't think let me see, I think you have a legacy.
You belong in legacy, but I don't think you're a senior.

Speaker 1 (02:12:59):
City, okay, right, I just think it's the work is
different than that senior citizens things. Well, yeah, let me
tell you about being with the Legacy group at our church.
It's like what John Snyder said about not John Snyder,
Rob Snyder. John Snyder say when Rob Snyder said the
beautiful thing about being fat. If you want to be fat,

(02:13:21):
this is the country for it because you can always
find somebody fatter. What I've noticed is when you are
sixty and you're pulled into the legacy group, you feel
younger real quick.

Speaker 7 (02:13:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:13:33):
As soon as you go into you're like, I'm pretty young. Yeah. Yeah.
Now you hang out with Aler, you feel kind of
old and he makes sure that he's clearly that's not
my by the way, you're not all that nice to
old people.

Speaker 6 (02:13:44):
Hey, you also feel real tall hanging out with me,
So there's prob's see what the fast is already done.

Speaker 1 (02:13:50):
You felt a little bit guilty about saying something about
my age. Yeah, right, but you're fifteen minutes in the
fast you're already.

Speaker 2 (02:13:56):
Changed, struggling. Yeah, it's hard I am.

Speaker 5 (02:14:00):
That we're seeing here on text Nation. Most churches do
recognize sixty years of age as senior citizen.

Speaker 1 (02:14:06):
Hoddy. I'm so sorry, Reckon. That's why you're getting legacy.

Speaker 3 (02:14:09):
Rick.

Speaker 1 (02:14:09):
I turned twenty nine on the eighth. What were you
doing at twenty nine? I'd rather not say twenty nine?
Oh yeah, but but I was close. I was two
years from huge strong. You were close. You know what
you were doing? You were peaking?

Speaker 2 (02:14:23):
No, I believe that's called bottoming out.

Speaker 1 (02:14:25):
Yeah, maybe twenty nine. I'll tell you what I was
doing a twenty nine. I was either about to die
or change my life. Yeah, right there, my boy, right there, I.

Speaker 2 (02:14:33):
Mean I was a boy the tention, Hey, decisions matter?

Speaker 1 (02:14:37):
How about that's actually accurate? Yeah, big life change was coming.

Speaker 15 (02:14:40):
I was.

Speaker 1 (02:14:41):
I was. I was about a year and a half
from a major life change, and it was desperately needed. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:14:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:14:46):
Even Greg wouldn't take my calleg too much.

Speaker 2 (02:14:50):
And Greg straight, Hey, whoa that guy's trouble.

Speaker 1 (02:14:55):
What's he done now? He want me to get him
out of something? Oh boy, it looks like I looks
like a payphone. I'm not answering that you do have ideas? Then,
did you know Layla to Greg? Why is Rick callin
so lately? This is two am. I don't even know
where that payphone is.

lot going on. So we've been We talked about last
week all the different you know, older people and dying
and Ozzy Osbourne going on the end and Hulk Hogan
and you know Malcolm Jamar Warren, Jamal Jamal Jamal Warner,

(02:16:29):
THEO It's okay, yeah, Chuck Mangioni, which, of course I
hope that you ada went and told your dad.

Speaker 2 (02:16:37):
I spent all weekend.

Speaker 6 (02:16:39):
It blew my mind that I and there's that one
record level of feels So Good that he's got, like
the flugelhorn.

Speaker 2 (02:16:47):
I do remember seeing that as a.

Speaker 1 (02:16:48):
Kid, Bye bye bye bye find it.

Speaker 6 (02:16:51):
I listened to Feel So Good probably four or five
times this weekend, because that's right up my alley. Like
I listened to instrumental jazz music like that all the time,
and my dad does. And I've apologize for not knowing
who Chuck and honestly messed with my head that there
is a song that you guys all knew that I
didn't know that falls right in that category.

Speaker 2 (02:17:13):
So I listened to Chuck Mangioni all weekend.

Speaker 1 (02:17:15):
Well that one, it's almost like you you play you
paid penance? Yes, yeah, not knowing. By the way, I
did not know that King King of the Hill did
some kind of comedy thing that Chuck Mangioni would appear
on that show off. They had some kind of Chuck
Mangoni joke going, and they had it Ani made and
everything you ever seen it, it's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (02:17:38):
But my dad had that record and I just didn't
know it. I just didn't know about it.

Speaker 1 (02:17:42):
And so I did you hit it to him? I didn't.

Speaker 2 (02:17:45):
I didn't talk to him about it.

Speaker 1 (02:17:46):
Now, okay, I didn't.

Speaker 2 (02:17:47):
I didn't want to. I didn't want to admit.

Speaker 15 (02:17:49):
It to me.

Speaker 6 (02:17:50):
And this dude is really like a Kenny G type
figure for that era of music.

Speaker 2 (02:17:55):
He was the king of the flugel My goodness, I mean,
what what was it? Cheers or somebody used this? A
bunch of a bunch of people have used this stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:18:09):
But but let's talk about this. That name has got
to change. If you if you say, uh, what do
you do? And you said, well, you know, I'm kind
of a well known in the world. Is one of
the finest trumpet players the world's ever that's cool. Yeah, flugelhorn, right,
that's that. That's kind that needs a pr campaign. Yeah.
I don't hear a lot of know. It's like it's

(02:18:31):
like you threw out French horn.

Speaker 6 (02:18:32):
You.

Speaker 1 (02:18:33):
I mean, I know it's necessary, it's just not cool. Yeah,
of course call you French horn players. Chars Adler's family
other than his dad, thinks the trump bone's not cool.
But I mean I think it is. I've discussed it's
cooler than horn. What about the marching bands that they
have people? And they got a flute and it's only
like eight inches long, and they're in the middle of
this huge stadium like anybody here.

Speaker 2 (02:18:55):
They're playing a straw.

Speaker 1 (02:18:56):
Yeah, and I'm dressed up. I got a stuff. I'm
in the band. I got the big fluffy thing on
my head. I got this little If everybody else was quiet,
could you hear it? I don't know, do we open
the door? I have a lot of them, so they
tried to get some volume. Do we open the door
of the difference between the flute and a piccolo? Oh,
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (02:19:15):
Yeah, so I don't flutes a lot bigger, right, piccolos waste.

Speaker 1 (02:19:21):
I don't know that flute they played. And there are
the big flakes like the one that uh that was
that was you know and your I know you like
the flute, Greg, you've been you know that little one
like the million dollar Man in Alabama. There'll be about
ten of them. That's the piccolo whatever do you look

(02:19:46):
like a flute? Do you remember how funny it was
when Brian Riggan did that be how we came up
with marching bands? Because he was like was this necessary?
And he who didn't come up with this tube? Blair
and he pretends he's sitting there with the tube and
also here's they go to marchings like he starts trying
to get up.

Speaker 5 (02:20:02):
All right, here we go the smartest Okay, it's the
pick up.

Speaker 1 (02:20:07):
That's the one I'm talking about right there. You know,
ron Ron Burgandy was on the alto. Wouldn't I think
so either that the flo or the sea flute? The yes,
flute might be the flo when he was going around
the room and fire out. If y'all could play the flute,

(02:20:28):
which one would it be? Uh? So many? I'm not
let's say flutes? Where was like salt at, I'd have
to go to the sea flut. You going to see? Yeah,
it looks weird, the base being bigger. I want it
looks like a muffler.

Speaker 2 (02:20:45):
It does look like a muffler.

Speaker 1 (02:20:47):
I think I may rock out out though I'd like
to see you on the piccolo. But that's the one
I'm talking about. We don't have to. They're just wearing
that pickle.

Speaker 2 (02:20:59):
It looks like they're playing in a straw. Just a little,
tiny little thing.

Speaker 1 (02:21:03):
Once once again, once again, the tough culture that we
grew up in picty Low was never a possibility. No,
bring clar and in that ring. What was that thing
they tried to make you play at school?

Speaker 2 (02:21:16):
The recorder?

Speaker 1 (02:21:16):
Oh? Yeah, yeah, the old recorder.

Speaker 6 (02:21:18):
The recorder one a penny to a penny, hot cross bunch,
that's the one.

Speaker 1 (02:21:22):
Four Yeah, yes, a recorder? Oh yeah, yeah, just you know,
the old recorder. Are you talking about the Hooter? No,
I don't know that's different. No, the recorder was the
one alarms cross Gorn. Yeah, the Hooter though, because I
don't think.

Speaker 2 (02:21:40):
I can google.

Speaker 1 (02:21:41):
Now there is the band the Hooters was named after this.
It has a little keyboard, has the keyboard. Oh okay, okay,
and put in some of the songs at the best.
I like the Hooter. That's a good band.

Speaker 6 (02:21:53):
Yeah they okay, I thought the Hooters band name was
named after something else.

Speaker 1 (02:21:58):
Come on, get your mind.

Speaker 2 (02:21:59):
I really didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:22:00):
I'm sorry, but calls so he's holding right there there.

Speaker 2 (02:22:03):
It is tiny little keyboard with the.

Speaker 1 (02:22:08):
Yeah you do that.

Speaker 2 (02:22:11):
It's got a straw.

Speaker 1 (02:22:12):
He plays it at the beginning of him we dance.
Wait a minute, hold on, go back please as you sorry,
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (02:22:19):
Been a picture of it, which one you oh.

Speaker 1 (02:22:23):
Keyboard saying hooter is just like a little funny name.
But it's called what is it? Rey? Was the official
name of it? I don't know, let me see real name.
I didn't know. It had a little a little strongly
in that he does. He looks like a little keyboards.

(02:22:47):
He holds in front of it.

Speaker 2 (02:22:48):
That's what am Lota cut.

Speaker 1 (02:22:49):
It doesn't look like his. He can get his arm,
hands around, fingers around its video and I think I
think he holds with him. You know, I think it's
like this, Adam, you may need to cover No, it's
not like that. You do this, addler? Can we play
it is out front? Watching? I think it's both fingers.

Speaker 6 (02:23:13):
One of those music one of those music videos that
like starts with like a fight in like a car
scene and all that's a kidnapping scene.

Speaker 1 (02:23:20):
They may not show them playing it. Let's see. They
have several of their songs. They have drive in.

Speaker 5 (02:23:27):

Favorite Hooter song? Is that all You Zombies? Or is
that all You Zombies is a good one. Yeah, that's
a dandy if your left hand here I go. I'm
that guy that brings us about every time because I
had to be sharp about what I know about the
band the Hooters. Uh that uh you know you know
that I saw you ever ever had that word? Every

(02:24:09):
time you ring the top of the guy always comes
to that same fact every time. That's me. And they
were the band that played on Cindy Lauper's Girls Just
Want to Have Fun album, And they wrote Time after
Time and wrote money Changes Everything. They wrote time after
Time and the guy singing the low end behind her
that's the lead singer. Time after Time is actually their song. Yeah,

(02:24:30):
they did it. When I saw him in Coin, I
saw him open for I think Brian Adams and money,
Money Changes Everything is their song. Yeah, they played it.
I think they played both of those. Oh wow, they
were good.

Speaker 6 (02:24:40):
And we used money Changes Everything for the wheels, the
big old wheel.

Speaker 1 (02:24:43):
Of money Change everything. That's a cool song. Who really
would rather them do it? Money changes?

Speaker 16 (02:24:49):
And yeah, I know, but when we did, there was
one thing we was thinking of, and that's money.

Speaker 2 (02:25:00):
What every Sorry, but now I know who Chuck Man
and the Hooters and and the Hooters.

Speaker 1 (02:25:10):
I didn't know that the hooter instrument, I didn't know
about that. Is it a hooter? I s or nos?
On the on the it's a hooter. It is a hooter.

Speaker 5 (02:25:22):

Speaker 4 (02:25:26):
The Rick Burgers Show.

Speaker 1 (02:25:35):

And now you never know when a new merch autem
will be inspired by you, the audience. So a couple
of things to hit. We also need to talk. Uh well,
let me do this first. Then we'll go to that.

(02:26:20):
So I'm finishing the music thing from last week. I
still don't understand that why Ozzy Osbourne was put on
stage and the state he was in. Have you seen
the story from the weekend? I know speed you printed
out today from the bassist who was in Black Sabbath
and he either he said that he was shocked by

(02:26:42):
the state of Ozsley that they put him on stage.
He said he had he had a nurse with him,
he was he had a cane, he said. When I
saw him, he said he was in horrible health. Rick.
We didn't know it, but he was a week from dying, right.
He said, he was so fril that I was shocked
by it. I wasn't prepared for it. I think he
was like, what are we doing that? We're We're really

(02:27:05):
going to put him out on the stage. He played
his solo stuff and some of his Black SATs, so
he was out there one about eight songs. Maybe said
he had to have help just in the rehearsal room,
two different people helping him. A nurse had to be
with him the whole time, and he was using a cane.
And he said, like I said, he was in his
last day. Yeah, he was, he said. He didn't really

(02:27:25):
say much beyond the usual greetings. When he sang, he
sat in a chair. We ran through some songs, but
we could see it was exhausting him. After only six
or seven songs. We had a bit of a chat,
but he was really really quiet compared to the Ozzie
we all knew. And of course, after a couple of weeks,

(02:27:48):
it got to the point that I guess we all
thought we could pull it off. But obviously, you know,
him dying so soon after it, he said, I I
just I he said, it's amazing that even got through
the show.

Speaker 5 (02:28:02):
Yeah, I saw a story on the last show and
what he went through in order to be able to perform.

Speaker 1 (02:28:09):
It was so important to him to.

Speaker 5 (02:28:11):
Be out there and the calls of the show for
Parkinson's and all the money. Yeah, but he stopped taking
I believe his pain meads in order to be, you know,
able to get out there and do that. But he
was in a lot of pain. But that's how important.

Speaker 1 (02:28:28):
It was to of course, considering how many times he
played drunk, that's kinds of a strange. Yeah, now he
decides that he wants to have it. Bill, you know,
there's plenty times he pulled his songs off in much
worse condition. But anyways, so so that was interesting. Another
thing over the weekend. Anybody see Happy gid More too?

Speaker 10 (02:28:44):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (02:28:45):
No, Reese did.

Speaker 5 (02:28:46):
He was the only family member that saw it, and
he sent the we were going to we just got
busy and didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:28:53):
He said.

Speaker 5 (02:28:54):
He said it was kind of funny, he said, if
you're a Happy gid More fan. But he said it
was just kind of weird. And he said that the
random people that would just appear in the movie sometimes
it didn't fit. It was just kind of he said.
You know, we watched it, him and a couple of friends.

Speaker 1 (02:29:10):
But it was okay.

Speaker 6 (02:29:11):
I watched it, Oh here we go and Buddy, I
struggled to stay awake through it. But the cameos were funny,
and uh, you know, I I'll say this.

Speaker 2 (02:29:23):
They didn't mess it up. You know what I'm saying
so much harm. Yeah, they didn't blow it, but wow,
the cameos.

Speaker 6 (02:29:31):
If you're into golf, you'll just every two minutes you're like, oh,
there's a new top twenty golfer.

Speaker 2 (02:29:38):
There's another one.

Speaker 1 (02:29:39):
Yeah, that's what he said.

Speaker 5 (02:29:40):
He said, it was just random cameos that if you knew,
you knew, but if now.

Speaker 1 (02:29:45):
You were like, what's going on?

Speaker 2 (02:29:46):
John Daly's very funny.

Speaker 1 (02:29:48):
Yeah he is, Well, he's perfect for this. Well to me,
they can think they intrigued me. The most is that
he lives in Happy Gibmore's garage. John, That's hilarious. Yes, yeah,
so I thought it would be funny. Everything I keep
saying is there was no attempt to do a great movie.
The only attempt was that fans could have a good
time with it if you love the other They weren't
trying to do too much to your point, Adler, but

(02:30:11):
did they do enough. I've seen people say stupidest movie ever.
Loved every minute of it, and then I've seen people say, hey,
I didn't like it. I was just spointed I and
think it was very good. I tried to get Sherry
sold on it. I could not do it. Yeah. We
we spent the weekend just kind of chilling, hanging out
together having a blast which I'll share with you in
a minute, doing what she likes and plus also what

(02:30:33):
I like to. We enjoyed time at the farm again,
and but I could not get her sold on Happy Gilmore.
I tried listen to the kids were with us till
late yesterday. I say late, you know, in the day,
and I was like, well, I could try to watch
and she's like, I don't want to watch that, right, Okay,
I have to find the time watching. It's not the

(02:30:53):
best attitude from the wives on Happy Gilmore. Yeah, I
get it.

Speaker 5 (02:30:56):
We had an attempt Friday night, you know, to maybe
tried to squeeze that in and she was like, I know.

Speaker 1 (02:31:03):
I found myself. I realized that I was gonna have
to put a lot of effort in explaining to her
Happy Gilmore period. She had no reference points. Uh huh,
but what you think about that? You know, there's a
new Happy Gilmore huh, happy one saying that's the thing.
I was like, I can't put that. I can't put
the effort if you didn't watch the first one, and
kind of like it, don't waste your time with this.
Yeah you know yeah yeah, like me and love the

(02:31:26):
first one. And a lot of people are saying that, hey,
it was kind of nostalgic and all that.

Speaker 7 (02:31:29):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (02:31:31):
I wish I could remember the first one better. It
was on years ago. Was that A long time is
twenty five. There's a couple of times this past weekend. Yeah,
I think it was thirty. Did you see the Scottie
Shuffler update from over the weekend, Yeah, admitted it. He
admitted he was the one that broke win. Yeah, he
didn't think the boom might would pick it up, right.

(02:31:53):
You remember that he said it was him. Yeah, he
didn't claim he claimed. Don't claim that. If you can
pull one off during a major and it picks it
up on the microphone, that's pretty good. He said that
he took a little, he little, a little air off
after his shot and he didn't realize the boom I

(02:32:14):
could pick it up.

Speaker 2 (02:32:17):
I mean, it's a stressful thing.

Speaker 6 (02:32:19):
You're trying to get your shot right and while boy,
after you hit that shot, you can relax, I guess
a little bit.

Speaker 1 (02:32:24):
Somebody on the text said that they uh kind of
incorporated him getting arrested into happy Yes, they could have
put it in there. Oh yeah, by the way, Greg,
over the weekend, he claimed it, he claimed that was me.
I mean, let me tell you, I don't know how
I feel about him claiming it, but I'm glad that

(02:32:44):
he cleared it up. So here's one thing, we can say.
Everybody that said it was a chair, everybody that said
it wasn't. It was an absolute bark. And Scottie Scheffer
owned it. He did, he claimed, he sure did.

Speaker 5 (02:32:57):
Well, I guess you know, if you're asked directly out
it and you're not gonna, I mean, you're gonna put
it on your caddy.

Speaker 2 (02:33:03):
And here it was. I think it was some lady
at the green.

Speaker 1 (02:33:08):
If it was me, I would have put it on Greg.
There was anywhere.

Speaker 5 (02:33:11):
Yeah, well everybody would understand it would be Greg. That
would be the obvious.

Speaker 2 (02:33:15):
He's going to be asked right here and he was
going to admit it.

Speaker 1 (02:33:19):
Did you fart? Yeah? That was me who was Actually.

Speaker 2 (02:33:30):
He said he's surprised. He's surprised that doesn't happen more often.

Speaker 1 (02:33:33):
Oh yeah, sure, which, I get I get it. That
club and I wanted to the open running away it
was me. Yeah, guys, we.

Speaker 2 (02:33:43):
Got it probably. I mean, just for the people know
what we're referencing.

Speaker 20 (02:33:46):
Don't forget, don't forget the punt intendity almost.

Speaker 5 (02:34:01):
Holding the shot, a fantastic shot.

Speaker 1 (02:34:08):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 2 (02:34:10):
I love golf.

Speaker 5 (02:34:11):
We've all had our little release that we thought was
like sure, I wasn't expecting that.

Speaker 1 (02:34:17):
That was a beautiful thing. About that I may just
said I think of boom I can pick that up.
But about these my boomocks are incredible and it was
a I could feel the relief that time. Now that's
a pretty good shot here goodness. Oh yeah, you gotta

(02:34:40):
give them credit promoning. That was absolutely text as you're right,
that was a relief bar He was happy for that
shot for he was so goodness. How about this correct
yep that was making? That was always not too many
other people around made my cat? Why are those food mikes?

of you.

Speaker 2 (02:36:59):
I Sorryorry, I'm sorry. Please don't hurt me.

Speaker 1 (02:37:01):
So gee, what's annoying you? Well, lots of things.

Speaker 7 (02:37:05):
Okay, you're talking about my age For a Grosky, I'm
really all we we live in dog gears. If you're
Grosky and make it to if you have a seven, uh,
if you start the seven, you have lived forever. So
I'm at the end of the line for Grosky. So
I am I am old. So I have three topics today.
I think Greg will find all three right. The first

(02:37:28):
one is golf with the hose and Roger's stuttering caddy.
Victor's secret, the growing need for intimate wear for men
with breasts.

Speaker 1 (02:37:44):
Okay, Victor.

Speaker 7 (02:37:48):
Center suits and sing alongs. Things in my life I'll
never understand.

Speaker 1 (02:37:52):
All right, let's let's jump my number two there. I
think that's got a lot of potential Victor's secrets.

Speaker 7 (02:37:56):
All right, Victors, Victors, the growing need for intimate wear
for men with breasts. So I know this is a
very uncomfortable subject, but he's got to be addressed. It
has to be addressed, Okay. And I've been rough on
the women by out they dress. I don't understand the
one eddy wedgie as I call it, you know, the
gust from unable to spine so that they jump off
the bed into their pants, or the ones here in

(02:38:18):
the morning just tramps in there and they are good
to go. But the men have turned the spectrum the
other way. Now. It's kind of like Turmi Loose, you
know the great song Turmi Loose. Yeah, yes, I mean
everybody's flipping the fuff. This brawless trend is taken over. Okay,
and I've take a note of it, there's no question.
But now I've been traveling a lot, so I've been
the land airport a lot. So you see everything in

(02:38:41):
the land airport. You can't get away from it, right
right there in.

Speaker 1 (02:38:43):
Front of you.

Speaker 7 (02:38:44):
So I know what happened. Some do let his wife
walk out of the house without it, without a brawl
and and some cut off sweat pass. He thought, I've
finally done it. I have one for men. Now we
can go casual. Right, we can go casual. We won,
we have it won. You've lost. That's not the ext
meed to go. I now have seen grown men in

(02:39:04):
pajamas at the airport, job at pajamas with their wife. Yes,
when you do this, you talk about things. No, I
am I look.

Speaker 1 (02:39:18):
That's crazy.

Speaker 7 (02:39:19):
I have a friend. Oh no, he's a pajamaare you know?
You know him? You know? But that's not less collars. Okay,
let's just get that clear. Less, it's not less. So
he finds himself at our place in Florida. My son's
down there with me, motors son. He wants her pajamas.
I see Davids kind of like am I next day David,

(02:39:44):
David says to me, I need to know your stance
on him wearing pajamas. I said, son, we don't even
have to talk about this. You know exactly where I stand.
It's just freaking weird you're talking about, like talking about.

Speaker 1 (02:39:57):
Just out.

Speaker 7 (02:40:00):
What happened. Okay, it's it's these kids that grew up
watching the Wiggles. Okay, that that's what is. We didn't
watch the Wiggles our house. The kids could watch Gunsmoke,
but take them. We're gonna watch the Wiggles. Okay. We
need a bunch of weirdo being from Australia impacting my kids.
All right, we're not. And these kids grew up watching
the Wiggles and sitting under the mom's arm, and now

(02:40:20):
their wife runs the show, and I'm gonna go side.
I'm gonna go sidebar right here, just kind of talk.
I know that mister Rogers, Captain Kangaroo, and mister Green Jeans,
we're very weird men. No one had to tell me
that I watched the show and maybe be very uncomfortable. Kid.
We don't had three and half channels. We had ABC,

(02:40:42):
PBS and NBC. At half of forty two you can
get You get you CBS if if they had ten
was right, you get Gordon Soldi at night to watch wrestling.
That was about it. Okay, we'd have choice if you
want to watch TV. You think I would have constantly
watched Lawrence. Well now I mean you think we did.
I want two and I want Okay, So you have

(02:41:03):
three hundred channels down. You choose the whiggers for your kids,
So that's on you. So back to the mambreast. Okay,
So this is an area where you can't trust your wife.
You can't go to your wife saying honey, don't have boobs.
You can't say that because she doesn't want to be
hanging off the arm for gallery breasts. She's just deny
it as much as you are. She didn't want to
see that. She doesn't want what she gonna say. Yeah, man,

(02:41:25):
there you know whatever, not going there with you. So
how do we handle these these unchecked breaths. Well, look,
we just have wife beaters, right, that's what they before
that right outside of the y m c A. I
never saw a man that could over the edge of
fifty of my life. Okay, and the people if you're
getting your kids at the y m C A shower,
you need to be real care about that. Hey that's fine,

(02:41:53):
that's fine, But you know I'm right. Okay. Now you
know the man's ear, which I think is a great word.
I thought about maybe the mid drift wife beater that
has LATEX or spand X right above your belly, your
big gut. Yeah, it's something that just you know, if
you make an effort, I felt like people will give
you a bit of a break. But people aren't even
making there for anymore. I'm at the pool. I don't

(02:42:16):
hang out at the pool. We have a little cold
plunge down there, and I think you an't get out
of So I'm down there. There's there's people, you know, frolicking.
I'm seeing me in say, guys in their thirties that
I'm like, Man, if you looked in the mirror, I mean, yeah,
you got a sore back. I mean there's a lot
You've got a lot of out there. I mean, you

(02:42:37):
know there's lots they don't care. They don't care. Okay,
we've got to where you don't care if you show
up in pajamas. Look, I'm not talking aout twenty year old.
I'm not talking about teenagers. These people show up to
pajamas in the airport. They came out of Bay. I
don't even think their brush your teeth. Yes, now, girls
wear pajamas. I'm gonna I'm gonna exaggerate this. Twenty five
percent of girls on the edge of thirty were in

(02:42:58):
pajamas to the airport.

Speaker 1 (02:43:00):
Okay, delayed.

Speaker 7 (02:43:05):
This is why our old men are so grumpy. They
see their breasts in the mirror every day and it
irritates them. Okay, And that's why God let us lose
our minds, because you know, at some point in time,
we don't want to sit there and just stare at
ourselfs like that, you.

Speaker 1 (02:43:18):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 7 (02:43:19):
And that's why they just don't care. Here old people
talking like the new filter there. Well look what he's
been staring there for the last thirty years. Yeah, okay,
there's no question but it. And look we're all heading there. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:43:32):
I shouldn't say this. Wow.

Speaker 7 (02:43:35):
And I know if you hate me for saying this,
I agree. But I've told my wife, I ever get
breast cancer, we can't call it that. Okay, if I
get breast cancer, we can't call it breast cancer that
I know. I didn't realize that's what twenty years agoing
to scared mean death. Well, we got to call it
something else.

Speaker 1 (02:43:50):
You can.

Speaker 7 (02:43:53):
Maybe pictorial senosis something like that, or or a rib cancer, melanoma,
you know, going something mon home somewhere. But I just
can't go worry. I'm telling my friends have breast cancer.
You act like you would make fun of me. Of
course you would.

Speaker 4 (02:44:06):
I would.

Speaker 7 (02:44:07):
I know you would.

Speaker 6 (02:44:07):
I would.

Speaker 7 (02:44:08):
I know you would. So everyb out there, all the
men out there breast cancer are kicking mad when a fight.
I understand I would be mad too if I said that.
But I'm just gonna be honest. That's what I'm here
to do.

Speaker 1 (02:44:16):
Honest.

Speaker 7 (02:44:17):
That's funny the name for it.

Speaker 1 (02:44:19):
I think I just said I have cancer.

Speaker 7 (02:44:20):
You know, a good friend of mine too one time,
I said, you never hear of women getting prostatect cancer?
And I said, you know, you really don't. I said, uh,
probably because you don't have prospects. But that's kind of
our Breast cancer really wasn't intended for men. I think
they missedynoiced a guy one time and throw it in
there and shouldn't have. And that's where Look, there's a

(02:44:40):
line out there for men Victor's secret. You could crush it, okay,
So flatnel in my way for men, for the everybody
Victor secret. Yes, maybe the zip instead of buttons that

little bit of art, you know, you know, you know

so golfing what with the hose? Okay, golfing with golfing
with the hose and it's the stuttering Caddy. Now, just now, speedy,
I want to be clearer. There will be a few
imitations in here, okay, because I need to sell this

(02:46:34):
the way it was sold to me. Okay, I'm not
making fun. How am I going to make fun of
someone who speaks right, right right?

Speaker 1 (02:46:41):
What did you say?

Speaker 7 (02:46:42):
You see exactly? Okay, I can't. I can't make fun
of you who speaks or shutter. So you know, take
it with your gran salt. So I just come back, okay.
I just came back from a wonderful trip. Went to Oregon,
played bandon Dune's golf course with some buddies. I went
from there to San Francisco and my beautiful wife we

(02:47:03):
celebrated our thirty third wedding anniversary the Larry Bird year,
and went from there to Pebble Beach. I spent time,
so yeah, to play a lot of serious golf. So
I'm in band Dunes and I've been trying to get ready,
as you know, and I've had I've had a rough
start twenty five, like it has been since ninete twenty nineteen.
Every yearvery year started bad, and I've had a few
things go wrong, as you know. So you walk band

(02:47:25):
and Dunes, that's what you do. There's no shot, there's
no chance. So I submit for a cart and the
guy responds back with it, I mean, do you think
you should be playing? I mean I've seending pictures stuff
and said here's what I got. It's like, hey, man, problem,
We're over thirty at this point.

Speaker 1 (02:47:42):
So so you have to show proof I need one.

Speaker 7 (02:47:44):
Yeah, you can't just show them say you're diabetic. You
have to have something there. I can't just be fat.
So I'm robbing range and I know them, I know them.

Speaker 1 (02:47:54):
Get get it.

Speaker 7 (02:47:54):
Rasped by my friends for having it, for having a car.
I don't care that actually felt sorry for him because
they saw I could to walk and down care of it.
So Roger's the caddy shows up in the cart at
the driving range. He introduced himself as Roger. Nice to
meet you, Roger, and I begin to quickly understand that
abandon dude, if you get a cart, they're gonna give
you absolute bottom of the barrel caddy. Okay, they're trying

(02:48:15):
to make your experience pretty miserable. I don't care.

Speaker 1 (02:48:17):
They're trying to punish you for sure.

Speaker 7 (02:48:19):
So Ry says to me, look, I had a stroke
a few years ago, and he said, and he said,
he said, I stutter. He said, you're not going to
offend me if you complete my sentences. And I said, okay,
to which I say, have you considered singing the artist?

Speaker 1 (02:48:40):
Okay?

Speaker 7 (02:48:41):
He said, I said, mel tell Us. I mean, it's just,
you know, just get it out. So he didn't. He
didn't really understand that all anyway. So Roger and I
start the day out and it becomes very apparent that
Roger has lost more than his ability to speak. Okay,

(02:49:02):
things are not going great. Okay. He was got first
visual scar. I'm going to go one yes, yes, okay,
and I thought, okay, so I've got a little rain
men here, plus Roger studying caddy. Okay now, and also Roger,
take that card anywhere, I said, Rod, and he hit
the restroom. I said, Roger, I can walk to the

(02:49:24):
urinal from here. You don't need to back the door.
It's okay, r okay.

Speaker 13 (02:49:30):
So so, uh, yes, I noticed that.

Speaker 7 (02:49:43):
He couldn't read putts. So it was just that's that's
the big part of that's really the biggest part of exactly.
So he takes flacticke. He says, here, it's over the ground,
and I said, I said, Roger, I said, Roger, I
just watched Allen's putt from the other side of the hole.

Speaker 1 (02:49:59):
It broke.

Speaker 7 (02:50:00):
Who feed the other direction? You're right here, so it's
over there. So I thought, Roger, what you're calling in
your own punch? Because yes, he had good concept.

Speaker 1 (02:50:08):
You're handling d Yeah. No.

Speaker 7 (02:50:10):
So then again in the car, since we're in the
car and it makes sense that we chiefs score, we've
got something to ride on. And I say to this Roger,
I mean the right to scores down. You don't want
me doing math, I said, math. I'm just asking you
right down numbers, dude, we're not adding as for tracting.
Just rid him down. I say three, right down. If
I say for it now, I mean you okay, no,
you don't want know, Okay, So right, so I'm having

(02:50:35):
exactly right what course. Are you at I meant, I
mean on the top one hundred course in the world. Okay, okay,
now I'm sitting in the fairway. Listen, I'm seeing the
figures were sitting in the fairway. He goes, I said
sixty five yards. Oh, I said, okay, nothing's happened. Fifteen seconds,
pass right here, sixty yards. That's riding right. And then

(02:50:59):
I still nothing. I'm not I'm not exact dreaming for
forty five, I said, Roger, we're gonna be on the green.
And then if keep doing this, what's one is it?
Just pick a number?

Speaker 12 (02:51:09):
Sixty?

Speaker 7 (02:51:09):
So he listened. He leaves the card and I take
his range finder. It is black. You can't see through it.
Roger's making all this up. It's it's it's the Book
of Eli. He I didn't know who was blind. And
all this two he got done. I mean, he had
handled this like like a chimp. Give me some, but
he had no concept what was going on. Zero forty

(02:51:33):
he out numbers, just just throwing out to say that
sounds good.

Speaker 1 (02:51:37):
No wonder. He couldn't read a punt.

Speaker 7 (02:51:39):
No, we couldn't do anything. So it was just you're left, Okay.

Speaker 1 (02:51:45):
So what are your buddies saying they, oh.

Speaker 7 (02:51:48):
They're having the time of their life, the time of
their lives.

Speaker 1 (02:51:51):
I don't believe it. I don't even like golf. I
wish I was there.

Speaker 7 (02:51:55):
Well, you meet the hose, the hose areho the hose?
So to pasta tempo. Next it's a very good golf
course Santa Cruz. And as I'm standing on with the
tea to meet the group you're gonna play with, I
see a cart. You know these remote carts. They can
drive like they wall behind. They comes flying through, hitting things,
hitting the curb, turning over slide. I know immediately I'm
playing with a woman. I don't know who she is, right, well,

calls today. Of course, got an interesting hey bird, one
thing that's gonna launch speedy. He will literally leave the

(02:54:30):
launching pad. And I can't wait. I can't wait to
read it. I can't wait to watch you as I
read it.

Speaker 5 (02:54:36):
And I guess it has to do with you speaking
on August tenth.

Speaker 12 (02:54:40):
Good night.

Speaker 7 (02:54:42):
Here he goes again.

Speaker 1 (02:54:43):
Look it's right there, it's right.

Speaker 5 (02:54:46):
Hey, everybody, we know we're Rick speaking.

Speaker 1 (02:54:50):
We got it actually working with the church. I just
cannot wait to read this email, okay, because I've watched
how much is bothering speeding? Okay? All right, so but
let's wait. That's still to come. That's still bothered to go.
Look we already have that, it's still it's still to come.
Like we know there's a tsunami. You ain't gotta tell us,
right And by the way, it looks like the waves
my bee size five feet, So do y'all consider John

(02:55:15):
Grugan to be a disgraced gen Gruden? What I say?
Did I say that?

Speaker 7 (02:55:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:55:21):
John Gruden? Do y'all consider him? Use the word disgraced
X Raiders coach? No homophobic? Is the emails? Right?

Speaker 12 (02:55:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:55:33):
Would you say, but does anybody when you bring up
John Gruden know? Man, No, I ain't going to do him.
He's disgraced. I think they tried to spell it like that.
Now here's the here's the headline, of course, you know
what's clickbait disgraced. Yeah. X Raiders head coach John Gruden
reveals comeback plans four years after racist emails scandal. I

(02:55:56):
can't exactly remember what he did.

Speaker 6 (02:55:58):
But the emails were from two thousand and eleven. It
was so he got busted in twenty twenty one.

Speaker 2 (02:56:03):
Oh really, yes, the emails were from twenty eleven.

Speaker 1 (02:56:07):
Do you remember when that big scare went out to
Adler's Point where people were going back finding things that
you that you commented on a decade ago, fifteen years ago,
twenty years ago, that timing thing, if it happened now,
oh yes, he goes up down. So the former Buccaneers
and Raiders coach stepped away from the sport in twenty
twenty one after he was shown to have used racist

(02:56:30):
and homophobic language and leaked emails. So ten years early. Yep,
so he did venture down a new career path. You
remember that in November he signed a multi year contract
with Barstool Sports. But it seems, according to the Detroit
Free Press, that Gruden says, hopefully I'm not done. I'm

(02:56:54):
about to make a comeback in coaching. Now Here's here's
the interesting level. He said, Well, listen to this quote.
I like this. I'm working hard to maybe get one
more shot. But hopefully some of these guys that fell
off my branch, if you can say it that way,
maybe they can hire me. Because I'm looking for a job.

(02:57:15):
I don't care if I end up coaching at Jones
Junior High. I'm going to coach again. I'm still coaching.
I'm just not on the team officially. But I do
have some private assignments I work on and I wear
some gear when I'm watching the games that nobody knows about,
and they don't even know who I might be pulling
for because behind the scenes, I'm working for them. So

(02:57:37):
he is doing some of that, and he is a
valuable source. But I'm kind of like in Adler's world.
Here we go back and we pull leaked emails from
all the way back in twenty eleven. We pull these
in twenty twenty one. We get rid of him, even
though we can't quite document anything in the way he's coaching,

(02:58:00):
anything in the way he's living that would indicate to
us that he's homophobic or racist. We don't see him
living that out at all. But we found some leaked
emails from a decade earlier in his life that we
didn't like some of the language he used, so we
destroyed his career, even though he wasn't really doing anything

(02:58:21):
action wise that would have made us think that he
had I want to tell you this, when it comes
to someone coaching as long as Gruden has, and coaching
as many teams as he has, and understanding the dynamic
from an ethnic standpoint of most football players, I think

(02:58:42):
labeling any coach that's coached a long period of time
as a racist is a tough one. It's going to
be tough to make that land. If there's anything that
has cured bigotry, and it was even used in the
Deep South, one of the most effective tools we had
was football. Yeah, on the athletic field, you'd be surprised

(02:59:04):
how a lot of that stuff is completely goes away. Yeah,
because you realize we are the same. Yeah, when it
comes to this, And I could say that even in
my own experiences. So anyway, he says that he wants
to coach. I think when you're a coach, you always
want to coach. And he said, if I end up
coaching at some junior high school, that'd be fine with me.

(02:59:25):
So he has been This is interesting. Gruden was initially
inducted into the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Ring of Honor based
on his many accomplishments during his seven seasons as a
head coach, Super Bowl and he remains a significant figure
in the history of our franchise. Upon further reflection, the
Buccaneers have decided to reinstate him into the Buccaneers Ring

(02:59:49):
of Honor. I think so they had removed him, Yes,
they had, Oh wow, and that was back during that
time where we were just wiping everybody out. Oh yes, yes,
he's canceled. He's sixty one years old and he was
put in the Ring of Honor in twenty seventeen. In
twenty twenty one, he was taken out but now has

(03:00:09):
been put back. So there we go. So I think
if anyone would like a good football coach that seems
to have lived his life without anything other than some
leaked emails and some language used, you know, back in
twenty eleven, I don't think we really need to fear

(03:00:30):
him as a dangerous racist out there. And he may
not be in agreement with you know, homosexuality or well,
I don't know. I mean, I don't know what his
statements are. I don't think it'll impact I don't think
it'll impact his coaching. I don't think he'll make comments
about it anymore. And I don't think have you heard

(03:00:54):
one player come forward and say, when Gruden coached me,
I thought he really really came across to me as
a big racist. I don't think anybody no.

Speaker 5 (03:01:04):
And I went back and looked when he was with
the Raiders and then he resigned because of the emails
that came out, and he was emailing with the Washington
I guess president at the time of the Washington football team,
the commanders, and others during the seven year period, and
then some emails were leaked to the New York times
and they broke it. And one of the biggest ones

(03:01:27):
was when Jeff Fisher was the head coach with the
Rams and he felt like he was being I guess
pressured to draft Michael Sam Yes, you know, openly gay
player in the draft in twenty fourteen. And then and
then Gruden claimed he was kind of a smear campaign
where they were going after him and trying to find

(03:01:47):
emails whatever, and then it kind of escalated from there.
He ended up resigning and everything, and so that I
had to go back and kind of refresh my memory
because I couldn't remember.

Speaker 1 (03:01:56):
What all the emails were about.

Speaker 5 (03:01:58):
But they claimed, you know, some of him included some
racist comments and homophobic comments.

Speaker 1 (03:02:03):
Now remember remember when they say racist, because I'm looking
at some of here this their version what he was
really doing, looking at the story I'm reading at the
end of like trying to find more. He was critical
of players kneeling during the national anthem, right that he
didn't get on board with that right. He actually thought
that he has right, and I think some of that

(03:02:23):
was deemed racist because he just disagreed with that. So
so again that that's a bit of a stretch on
making someone a bigot because they disagreed with that he
called and the and the Michael sam thing is why
he got pulled on the being called homophobic because god forbid,
he thought the pressure by the NFL to do that

(03:02:43):
was and warrant.

Speaker 5 (03:02:46):
He was standing up for Jeff Fisher going they shouldn't
be pressuring.

Speaker 1 (03:02:49):
Him to draft him. So keep in mind, his entire
career was destroyed because he disagreed with the players kneeling
and he thought that coach, you should not be pressured
to draft a player just because he's gay.

Speaker 6 (03:03:04):
He also called Roger Goodell a well rhymes with.

Speaker 1 (03:03:08):
Maggot well and and see that right there, we'll get.

Speaker 2 (03:03:12):
You in trouble right there.

Speaker 1 (03:03:14):
Yeah, you know you, like we said many times, you
can get away with offending a lot of people, not
the person who's in charge of your job. Yeah, that
person you got to watch.

Speaker 15 (03:03:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:03:24):
Yeah, he never intended Goodell to say that. He did not.
I had a friend of mine that unfortunately when he
had a little comment about the boss, hit reply, and
unfortunately the boss was in that reply. Yeah. That's that's
never good, you know it is.

Speaker 5 (03:03:44):
He look back at what he's doing like now with
barstool and he's opening up all these boxes coming from
these colleges and stuff.

Speaker 1 (03:03:51):
Remember that the fire Fired Coaches Association or whatever.

Speaker 5 (03:03:54):
Yeah, yeah, and he was just at the manning camp
and all this kind of stuff. You would think that
if he was, if people really saw him as a racist,
Rick to your point, people in his life and that
he's coached and coaching staffs and all these colleges, would
they be sending him all this stuff and inviting me
into these camps to help as a consultant. Well, that's
the reason why I said, it just seems like something's

(03:04:15):
missing there.

Speaker 1 (03:04:16):
That's the reason why when I saw the headline disgraced,
I don't see in modern time anybody treating him like
he's a disgrace. Right to your point, that's another you
know it. You know, he's pretty much people like him.
That quarterback thing he does. Everybody seems to like that. Yeah,
you know. So we'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (03:04:35):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (03:04:43):

And so we're understanding which I didn't know. So when
you go to these more prestigious golf courses, if you're
just by yourself, I mean it's it's graps.

Speaker 7 (03:05:28):
You you're at the mercer of the draw.

Speaker 1 (03:05:29):
Yeah, so they just they'll just put anybody and build
a forsome with three people, that's right, Yeah, okay, yeah, okay,
And then you're meeting strangers and everything.

Speaker 7 (03:05:38):
I mean strange, it's not the right word. Yes, I've
seen some crazy things.

Speaker 1 (03:05:42):
And and one included who you were certain may have been.

Speaker 7 (03:05:45):
There's no question about it. I played with El Chapo
last week at Tubble Beach and yeah, Taylor tel Prutt,
it's a guy caddies from her out there.

Speaker 1 (03:05:55):
Beach.

Speaker 7 (03:05:55):
Yes, well you think so until shows change it. Yeah,
because Chopo's I mean him in the first tea, and
I mean I take a step back, gold glasses, the
white face. If I felt to his club's called twenty Grand,
you know, and he's you know. I'm on the first
tea thinking, wow, this is incredible. I mean that's like
I told Taylor Min Hey man, that's Choppo. He said, uh,

(03:06:19):
I think you're right. I said, we got to keep
I said, no last name sting out today. Let's keep
everything down home. I don't want any kind of connection
to this real. So I get greeted by these kids
on the first tea. I think they're about eight ten,
and I thought that that's kind of cool that Chappo
brought his kids around. You know, that's that's kind of fine. Whatever.
They can watch dad play golf with the rest of us.

(03:06:40):
I look around, I thought the rest of us, and
I think, where's the rest of the group. Yes, and
I realized that Chopo's kids are going to play along
with us.

Speaker 1 (03:06:48):
Now, look you chop kids.

Speaker 7 (03:06:50):
Yes, I understand that this is not an inexpensive eighteen
golf Okay. So the caddy is getting ready to walk
and he realizes he's got the babysit at the eight
year old ten year old. Okay, that's him, chop Oh.
I saw that. Yeah, and I see Choppo reach into
his pocket and grab a wad of money. Why hands

(03:07:11):
to the caddy, and all of a sudden, the caddy smiling, ready,
ready to play with the kids for six homes. Okay.
Now one of the kids doesn't even tee off. He
just walks down the court, or said, he runs down
the course, raisin Raisin Caine, and he'll hit a shot
of one small Okay. The other kid is okay, I mean,
but again, why you have your kids out there? Have

(03:07:31):
no no idea? So we used to agree, Taylor and
I did that anything they do, we're gonna say, great shot.
I wanted to think we were great people. I didn't
want to be in them cross.

Speaker 1 (03:07:39):
Areas, wanted to live.

Speaker 7 (03:07:42):
I did, I did, and and and Choppo's in the
cart the entire time, either ordering drugs or hit one
or two. He never looks at his kids, never never
even looks out. Okay, it's just me, Taylor, there, Caddy
and the kids. I'm putting at Pebble Beach and I'm
getting ready to make my putt and a ball rose
between my legs. Okay, and it's one of the kids. Okay. Now,

(03:08:05):
my firstest think is my first think is I'm gonna
grab his kid to buy his hair, walk him off
and stick his face in the sand. Then I realized
this is the son of the child and do which
I say, good chalk man, I just fantastic.

Speaker 1 (03:08:22):
Was there any part of his body not tattooed?

Speaker 7 (03:08:23):
No, they ever did. He was an attorney. Yeah you
believe that he did?

Speaker 1 (03:08:28):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (03:08:29):
And I said, of course yes. Uh And two out there.
I was telling you that the jet the Pacific Grim
called the Japanese culture is very big now in that
part of the world, and the social cue, the social
cues have been lost in that community. Okay, I mean
kids in the sand trap running around greens, all right,
and the dads have you got to figure out they

(03:08:52):
do nothing, not one thing. I thought that grandmother runs
over there or slapped the kid around. We were and
then the kid that got to sit there, he's got
his saki and it's in his seat, and he sits
there and just watch the whole thing and play out.
Doesn't care.

Speaker 1 (03:09:05):
And if you notice, notice this, you know the dad's
in the Pacific roalm. Yes, they don't seem to get
involved much at all. But there's the other thing.

Speaker 7 (03:09:14):
There's always a grandmother, absolutely, and she is the one
who throws it down.

Speaker 1 (03:09:18):
Yeah, the wife really doesn't do it.

Speaker 7 (03:09:20):
No, it's the grandmother. And then eventially, you know, the
wife has to become a grandmother. So I guess they
just passed that down. The grandmother carries the stick that
the rest of them just watch and they don't have
any idea what they're doing, or they're so smart. Think
we elevated a little what harmon? Should have you said that?
I think.

Speaker 1 (03:09:38):
I'm just saying.

Speaker 7 (03:09:39):
I'm just saying so, I think we have elevated the
intelligence too much. Now I don't want to get in
the math quiz one of them. I tell you that
when it comes to standing, when it comes standing in
the line for reservation restaurant, I'll take that chance, okay,
because they'll just walk in and take get the table
right there on the place. And then and then also
there's a language bearer. Yeah. Now, look, you got here

(03:10:01):
from somewhere, you made a reservation, You've walked right all day,
You've you've gone to the gift shop and spent American dollars. Okay,
but now we can't know the language when it's time
to get a reservation to get dinner. I'm just gonna
walk and sit down like I don't know. I mean
a dollar children up in the air and like, hey, hey, hey,
back the line there.

Speaker 1 (03:10:19):
You're saying that they pretend, they pretend not to know
the language, and the way they're acting is inappropriate. They're
confused by the process.

Speaker 7 (03:10:26):
Yeah, question about it.

Speaker 13 (03:10:27):
That's it.

Speaker 7 (03:10:27):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (03:10:28):
I'm just telling you now, And that's that's starting to
annoy you.

Speaker 7 (03:10:33):
It's been annoying me for a long time. I just
had I had a platform to say it. Yeah, there's
lots of things going about that therapeutic to you, it is,
And honestly, it became when I began to realize that
I was the only person that couldn't tell someone's Asian,
Chinese or Japanese. It really helped me because I'd have
swore that hoe was Japanese. Sworn on it. Nah Korean, Korean, Korean,

(03:10:56):
who speaks Chinese. That's that's messed my head too. I
can's speaking no, Johnny. Well that's let me say, I
don't want to speak you know, Spanish anyway.

Speaker 1 (03:11:08):
Well, but you have you even had the wrong people
with the last name, So I mean, what do you know.

Speaker 7 (03:11:13):
I did speak to Chopo's kids in Spanish, I know,
like four words just to make.

Speaker 1 (03:11:18):
You decided to try to speak to them in Spanish.

Speaker 13 (03:11:20):
You know why?

Speaker 7 (03:11:21):
I wanted Choppo to think that I knew Spanish, so
if he's trying to get something on me, he would
think I could hear it.

Speaker 1 (03:11:28):
Yeah, did he play every shot or did he sit
back and watch?

Speaker 7 (03:11:31):
He played the front nine and then then then something
was going down to Mexico City, I guess because he's
uh spending the rest of the time in that card
on that on that gold phone.

Speaker 1 (03:11:39):
Oh really, so about ten, you lose Choppo.

Speaker 7 (03:11:42):
Lose, Choppo is gone. That's number eight. Chopo takes it
to the house. He's there in body only and really
not even that.

Speaker 1 (03:11:50):
And he's on the phone a lot, which could be.

Speaker 7 (03:11:52):
And then his caddy, who I called Buzz light Year,
why because he's an adulor who dressed like a kid.
I mean, he's got these tight pants on. And somebody
tells me he's an actor, which are irritating. I said, No,
he's a Kid's a caddy, that's what he is. He
may he is a caddy. That's his job right now.
So a Buzz a lot of hear was his caddy
and both of them just checked out, you know, so
we're stuck with the kids running around ras.

Speaker 1 (03:12:13):
Now it sounds like when you say way, you mean
you and your caddy men Taylor, Yeah, because you're you're
stuck with the kids.

Speaker 7 (03:12:19):
The kids also had their own caddy. This caddy got
stuff full of cash before we started.

Speaker 1 (03:12:23):
He have a good babysitter, he was.

Speaker 7 (03:12:25):
He did an excellent job.

Speaker 1 (03:12:27):
When Choppo gives you a roll of money, he says,
watch my kids, you gotta do it right.

Speaker 7 (03:12:31):
And when when the young youngster were getting the bunker
and it's very very hard to get out of a
bunker anyway, and after like his I'm not a kidding now,
after like his ninth or tenth swing at it, the
bunker's now with no send to it has been dug
out for a hole there. Okay said, hey, kid, why
don't you just throw it? Okay throws it out, you know,
and then we have to spend the next hour recking,

(03:12:51):
you know, calling in maintenance, bringing sad because the kid
knocked all out of the bunker, and Choppo's over there
just dialing in. He doesn't care, doesn't care the least
and I'd love to know what tip was. I bet
Choppo tip like crazy.

Speaker 1 (03:13:03):
Well, you saw the attitude change on my daddy.

Speaker 7 (03:13:07):
He was walking and you saw that one of mine.
I saw and look. I asked Taylor to tell me
what he chick, because I'm I look bad now to Taylor.
I don't have a I don't have Choppo money. You know,
you don't know that I don't have that kind of cash.
And I'm trying to take care of Taylor and Choppo's
just groving me. He's groving me.

Speaker 1 (03:13:27):
Did did you wrap up the round and say goodbye properly?

Speaker 7 (03:13:30):
And everything was good? I gave him a fake last name,
but I gave That's.

Speaker 1 (03:13:35):
What's eating sky in garadeskiing there it is? Do you
feel better?

Speaker 7 (03:13:39):
