Speaker 6 (05:25):
Not doing we're chilling? Yeah, he's great. If he changes color,
you know, any any given time, that's not because I
bought a new one. It's because they do that sometimes.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Okay, buddy, we're not children.

Speaker 6 (05:36):
Now he's doing great. He's doing great.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
You know that's a great point. I mean they all
look so much alike. He could just drop a new
one in there, wouldn't.

Speaker 6 (05:42):
Never cares special.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
By the way, here's somebody, yeah, yeah, Greg, did you
we told that story? Didn't know?

Speaker 1 (05:50):
We didn't. We couldn't. By the way, I want you
to picture this. Somebody said for me today you all
are going all the way with me. I am driving
from Louisville, Kentucky to Idaho.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Wo wow. So we will we will do that. You
know a story we didn't get to yesterday that I
want to make sure we break down is the whopper
at Burger King. What about back in the day, and
it's been a couple of years, I think twenty two
we had mentioned that Burger King was being sued because

(06:24):
of the whopper and the size of the patty and
the way they claim it's all you know, it's bigger
than anything else or whatever. Well, now it's time they
have to defend themselves. They they went that they tried
to get it thrown out and it just says no.
And I think there's nineteen people suing burger King.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Wait, they're soon because the whoppers claim to be bigger
than it actually is.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Yeah, and we'll do the story. They will basically defend
their whopper and others that they present in a commercial
as being a certain size.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Look, ain't the only ones that can be accused of that? No, Now,
I've never really who's burger actually is. This build is
bigger and that's in the time, and it looks like
a biscuit.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
A sausage biscuit with a bigger I don't know about you, guys.
I never like measure the burger when I order it.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
If I ever do to a fast food I just
opened the wrapping and eat it. I mean, have you
ever like, look, I'll look at that.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
It's a little smaller and it's not an advertised I
mean on the one that was called bigger, I did
because I went, that's bigger than the others.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Well, my guys, they must have looked like popcorn.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Well all of us, I think, speedy though, have been
able to as Greg said, iball it I over the years.
Oh yeah, I've noticed it serving size. I'm just about
everything we're given except for the French fries at five guys.
The serving size on everything seems to be reduced.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Oh yeah. In my opinion, the Whopper has been around
since nineteen fifty seven, and now they have to defend
their Whopper ads in federal court after customers are suing
them for fraud. Here's what I did.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
That's a little much, But I will say this, If
you're gonna call it the Whopper, it better be a
big one.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, it's a lot of pressure, lot to live up to. There.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
I want you to know. Text Nation, which you just
text is a line I was going to use and
I thought better of it. But thank you for texting it.
Somehow that gave me some relief. Oh, I see that.
But what I was will break it down. I would
like to if I were there, and there's no way
to do it if I could, because I'm sure they
reduced it as well. I would love to see the

(08:23):
original Whopper, and I would love to put it now
by the Whopper Whopper Junior and see I have a
Whopper Juniors even way smaller than it would really Well,
that's what I mean. I bet you the current Whopper
is the old Whopper Junior.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
I didn't have one I'm just spitballing here, but I'm
telling you I'm a fan of the Whopper.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
I like that.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Oh yeah, the Whopper is not a bad one. But
you know, in twenty twenty two, Burger King tried to
demit if they could get this dismissed, and the judge
turned them down. So now they have to defend themselves.
Now they are people's claiming that they misled customers by
falsely advertised and the Whopper and other menu items and commercials.
Nineteen people are suing Burger King. That's funny. Twenty they

(09:07):
advertise the burger as a large burger, larger burger compared
to competitors by showing the Whopper containing oversized meat patties
and ingredients that overflow over the bun to make it
appear that the burger is approximately thirty five percent larger
in size. Lawsuit. I know, and it contained more than

(09:27):
double the meat than the actual burger, according to the lawsuit.
According This is a USA Today reported.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
Again, I don't expect that much from my burger joints,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
They shrink over the years. Here's the move they love
to do. Big bun, not a big patty. That's right.
But here's what you look at, the big bungle man.
That's a big burger. Then you get off in there
and you know what bothers me about this lawsuit. We
couldn't get a twentieth person.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I know that the nineteen from thirteen different states.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Doesn't it feel better if you said twenty people are
suing over this nineteen? No, you gotta find sure there's
one more party. Even if it's not, there's got to
be one more person that's mad about it. Yeah, because
there's no more people mad about it than nineteen than
I don't think it's worth pursuing rig Some people are
saying they don't think the quarter pound is a quarter
pound anymore.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Probably not, But that's just life.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
A whopper didn't expect to be this hungry this soon.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
I know.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Let's just that's just life.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
We'll be right back.

Speaker 7 (10:23):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Okay, guys, let's talk about real talk here.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Have you just realized Mother's days right around the corner
and you don't have anything yet, don't panic?

Speaker 2 (10:39):
I got you.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Instead of the usual flowers or last minute Amazon panic,
by give your wife something that actually feeds her soul
a ticket to Share the Arrows with Blaze Media's on Ali,
Beth Stuckey and Alan Texas on October the eleventh. She
will have a one full time not just an event.

(11:01):
It's a powerful, faith filled experience where women can come
together to be encourage, equipped, and reminded of their purpose
as wives, moms, and daughters of the One and only
Living God. And let's be honest, she carries a lot.
There's a chance for her to be poured into for
once because she's always emptying herself. This year's lineup is fantastic.

(11:22):
Ginger Dougar will be there, Alssa Childers, Shawna Hollman, Taylor
Duke's Katie Faust worship by the amazing Francesca Badistilly. It's
gonna be a powerful weekend that your wife will not
want to miss. Now the ticket is going to go fast,
so go to Share the Arrows dot com. Grab your

(11:43):
tickets now Share the Arrows dot com. Because nothing says
I appreciate you quite like giving her a weekend filled
with worship and community. So I do want to say that,
because it is real. I want to say thank you

(12:05):
to the Calhoun County Chamber of Commerce, Greg, it's our
home county. Uh going home today? Huh, buddy, you will
not be the only one that will travel twenty today.
Once you hit the bridge or on the out side,
big brother will do it as well. I'm going on
the other side. I'm going on those side of the wall.
I will not take your exit. I'll roll on. Yes,
you will to O X F O R D.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
And it's not as far as you think it is.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
If I'm going to that Museum of Natural History that
mister san Antonio kind of talked down to us about.

Speaker 6 (12:36):
It looks great. I didn't know it existed.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
What do you think you think we're munch of rubes. Well,
we're all in overalls and oaf shoes in Calviun.

Speaker 6 (12:43):
County, Rick guys that I thought it was cool.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Hey, you need to go buy them leatherwood. That's what
I was gonna ask you. Yeah, do you think boom
leather wood? When you get up the top of hill,
hang a runde and you're not fine? So I'm not
gonna take the one eighty five. I'm getting cold water.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
What I would do?

Speaker 1 (13:00):
That's where I used to live bypass. You really think
that's better?

Speaker 2 (13:04):
I remember that house like as supposed to coming all
the way through.

Speaker 6 (13:08):
About this. You're going to argue about this right now?

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Well we could look you do what you want to do.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
But of course, now Rick, wait a minute, there is
a traffic circle involved if you go that way roundabout
when those roundabout traffic circle roundabout, but I think it
is traffic also acceptable.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Well, well I understand this is I have right underneath him.

Speaker 6 (13:34):
He's spicy right now.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Pay attention though, when you take the right and when
you get down there where twenty one and all that
runs together, you're gonna have to get off. I know
if you stay straight you go end up in Golden Spring.
But that's what I'm worried about.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
What did just look at the sign?

Speaker 4 (13:48):
What?

Speaker 8 (13:48):
What?

Speaker 1 (13:49):
What do you think about that? Here's a concept putting
into the GPS just past Sex High School?

Speaker 2 (13:52):
You're going to turn?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
What about put it in the GPS and go the
way it says?

Speaker 2 (13:55):
If you like that, do it? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:57):
See there he thinks he knows more than the GPS.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
I well, when if you enter Calhoun County, I like
to know he's going right down. How you go?

Speaker 6 (14:04):
What you say? Where you turn?

Speaker 2 (14:06):
Everything? I mean, and if you don't do what he says.
He gets got. What if there's a special what they're
crappy about?

Speaker 1 (14:12):
Listen, what if there was a special app and it
and it bypassed and overcame, overruled every app you had.
Somebody said I'm gonna have to deal with Calhoun County also,
and Greg's face came up on app.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Let me tell you what you do. Get off the way.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
I don't go to the one eighty five delivery his
delivery to traveling straight. Let me just let me just
you just go go one eight five. This gg gonna
hurt you, Okay, it is not efficient?

Speaker 6 (14:39):
Goop.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
They don't know.

Speaker 6 (14:42):
Sometimes there's a wreck. You know, you're doing a long trip, said.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Google Maps, don't know?

Speaker 1 (14:48):
You want these people that anywhere I go, I've got
I mean, god forbid, I remember how to get somewhere.

Speaker 6 (14:53):
Well, sometimes there's accidents. You want about that.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
I'm coming back with people house and they have to
put their on and go, or I can't go anywhere.
I don't even know where to turn left right when
I leave my driveway until his phone tells me. You
know what, we used to look at maps. We used
to just figure it out. We didn't have to have that.
I'm telling you that thing will mess up sometimes.

Speaker 6 (15:13):
It will, it will will it will, buddy.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Great, Can I tell you again this feels good. It's
good to have that back.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
Don't right, I get on my kids all time. Y'all lost.
If you ain't right, well, most people to get somewhere.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah, I know what I ain't talking about that, that's
not what I'm talking about. Yeah, I wanted to tell
me every move to make because I have no idea
where I'm going. That is not a good place to be.
Tell you what, you keep this up. I might do
the one eighty eight. Oh no, really, it's not that bad.
The text Nation says I need to do the one
eighty eight. Yeah, interchangement put you out, You gotta you

eighty eight, And I think it's on the sign now
that's where those seventy five Jersey. But I'm gonna tell
you about one eighty it is, But I'm gonn tell
you I don't think it's on the sign.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
It'll get congested, right. But yeah, that one thing about
one eighty eight, that's a popular one. It is the
people don't know how to merge.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
I go buy them leave with That's just me. You
do what you want to do. Okay, you just need
to go through Oxford as in the old way one

I'm gonna see Jerald Case tonight?

Speaker 2 (16:34):
No, he won't be inwhere near the Chamber of Commerce.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
You don't think he runs a small business on the side.
But I just don't see him getting an award. You really,
I'm handing in a small business war. Well, he may
be up for some kind he actually does. He may
be up for something.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
You have to you think I ain't even Howard You're wrong.
Oh yeah, that's good. Well you got some decisions to make.

Speaker 9 (16:53):

the prowess of seventy five, And I'm like, baby, but

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Yes, you got a good camera deal. That was the
last three times. Look it up. But look at it's
not like there's like one ringing or something. How how
does she do that? That is hilarious.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Yeah, strange encounters. At one time I thought something happened
to me stroke bottom of the hours. Look, let's get
that check book out. We can talk about it all
the time.

Speaker 7 (26:46):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
We'll get some Heyburds emails. Maybe some other phone segments
coming up. Some more updates from BUCkies. All that coming
up a little later. Look the mobs they bring in,
they don't need any help. I mean, boy, the BUCkies
phenomenon is it's been a topic of intrigue. How did

(27:16):
does Whobie like BUCkies?

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Loves it? I love it. Left taking the family. So
that's good, that's great. A couple of update stories today.
It was my daddy the AI photo. It was fun.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
Let me tell you, baby, speedy was phenomenal. That was funny,
funny stuff.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
Did you like it?

Speaker 1 (27:35):
So anyway, we now have an update. You remember the
New York City tour helicopter crash that broke.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
No, no, another AI was okay, okay, So that has
nothing to do with time laughing. I'm sorry that.

Speaker 6 (27:52):
I showed the picture. I didn't know we were going
into that on YouTube.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
Don't be reckless.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
We're going to the helicopter crash. That's what happened. I
don't know if I giggled that kind of like that.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
By the way, everybody wanting the Speedy will will you
ask Hoby whether you should use a seven or eight?

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Are? But it's how far out I am?

Speaker 5 (28:17):
Right?

Speaker 2 (28:17):
All right?

Speaker 1 (28:18):
So back to the horrific crash. You know, maybe these
kind of stories you just can't transition to him on
the show.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
You can't, you know, they're too serious. Now here's what
we're gonna do is we'll just actually be respectful and
shut up.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Okay. By the way, you remember when we played the
AI song of Hoby and Speedy, we didn't keep it.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
You have it? Where is it? You have it?

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Like?

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Is it in an email or something?

Speaker 5 (28:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (28:41):
You played it, you said, check this out, and I don't.

Speaker 1 (28:43):
Know what I did with it.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
It's somewhere in an email. I'll look for it. I
have it in an email somewhere. Okay.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
So here everybody's been trying to figure out for what
any world happened. Okay, okay, never mind, we'll come back
to that. We'll come back to that later.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
We said we'll be respectful and shut up, and he goes,
all right, so what.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
We'll come back to that later. We'll just try that
what happened? What happened now, I'm not doing the story.
It's too serious and look and honestly, I don't feel.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
It, Hoddy. I feel a lot harder. I looked up.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
It's a serious story. I'm sure we don't want to
know what happened to helicopter, but it it's just so
hard to get it in. Wow, I'm serious, and I
feel the same way serious.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
I feel the same way. It was like I thought.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
I looked at that, I thought, I bet everybody like
an update on that, but I don't. But I just
seem like I think I picked the wrong time on
the show.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
We do have breaking news coming out of the Vatican here.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Well, you've already said this, Now is this an update
on an update?

Speaker 2 (29:46):
Well, it's a live look into what's going on here?

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Do you you already tell us we had black?

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Well, but take a listen to this.

Speaker 6 (29:54):
With the number one.

Speaker 10 (29:55):
Take in the twenty twenty five National Catholic League, Pope
the Saints have traded to the Cardinals, and with that
number one pick, the Vatican Cardinals select wide Redeemer Pierre
Batista pizza.

Speaker 7 (30:16):
So how about that?

Speaker 2 (30:18):
How about that? So thank you for that? Then back
to the hell.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
It was black smoke, black smoke. Okay, do y'all want
me to try the helicopter up there one more time?

Speaker 2 (30:27):
You know, people died six sweet little family?

Speaker 11 (30:31):
Right?

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Great?

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Can we laugh the pictures for a minute? I'm can
we laugh the pictures a minute?

Speaker 6 (30:38):
Do we need a quick a transitional story about the
smoke the popes?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Okay, so Speedy, Speedy, Speedy is the conclave guy.

Speaker 6 (30:48):
I've got a quick package about how they make the smoke.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Oh yeah, that is the ingredients they use for black
or the black speed. Speedy has just finished. It is
really award winning burning. Don't you now what they turn
in their votes? That's what they burn? No, they don't.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, Greg spedial Force just came off his investigative reporting
of Jing Haptman's death and now and now he's moved
on to he's going to update this and Speedy's already
called black Smoke. But here here's how they go to
Speiny live at the Vatican. Here's how they make the smoke. Yes, okay, oh,
I found that song.

Speaker 6 (31:21):
A pyrochecker expert explains how the black and white paple
smoke signals are created.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
That lists is good for the radio audience and.

Speaker 11 (31:31):
The conclave. The cardinals will have at their disposal this
electronic control unit and those black and white pyrotechnic cartridges
consisting of six smoke cartridges connected in the series for
the duration of seven minutes. Then after the vote, the
ballots will go into the old stove from the old
conclaves and the smoke cartridge into the new stove that
has been provided by the Vatican. Then the cardinal will

(31:54):
press the old one's listening to this?

Speaker 1 (31:56):
I mean that then.

Speaker 6 (31:59):
No one's listening this. I was explaining what y'all were
just talking.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
About about it language, Yeah, nobody cares about it. Yeah,
I don't think anybody cares. I found myself a bus
longer than eight seconds. I lost interesting long I lost
interesting wires.

Speaker 6 (32:16):
I think I much less. It's much less primitive than
I thought.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
It would be.

Speaker 6 (32:21):
It's much more logical. Switches and it's like a flip
flicking a light switch on with a canned connected You know, just.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
How deep can you go with black smoke versus white smoke?

Speaker 2 (32:32):
Yeah? I mean, it is interesting how it was made,
and I thought was that was pretty good?

Speaker 6 (32:37):
Thank you Speedy. We're trying to learn like these two
knuckleheads arguing about the road like they're a thousand years
old and GPS doesn't exist.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
It's funny, is the audience?

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Since is what I Since Rick just dropped helicopter story,
this sit in the day for work today, I did
find we're gonna be like.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
This is what I was, But just I don't know
where we're it.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Oh it's good enough. You want it, well, let let's
hear it against it. We think it's good enough to
put in the Okay, beady from Mississippi. This is not funny.

Speaker 12 (33:08):
It's a talking man, got a story for every moment,
a quick with in his hands. But whenever listen whereas
the sun turns rid healing and clothes and see now
you know what Hoby sid Now, Hoby sid that right there.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Right there?

Speaker 6 (33:31):
Hoby sick?

Speaker 9 (33:32):
Yeah, yeah, that's what you did.

Speaker 6 (33:33):
Yeah, he's the sharpest feeling. You can't debate that.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Showing the baby picture, Idler, the.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
Tavern, the blood's always spread. It all loops back.

Speaker 7 (33:48):
To you know what, Hoby's sick.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
Yeah, it's pretty good. Hoby is Scott Laney. He's former
interned with those of you that are new to the show.
A lot of it because I got it. Who is
this guy you're talking right? He's only he's had a
long history with the show. And Greg. Greg used to
work out with us and have a good time with
us and stop three years ago, and so now it's
just me and Hobie.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
And we you know, when's the last time Greg worked
out with three years?

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Like, we've been here for over two and went one time.
I've been about ten times. No, you went one time, Greg,
and it was half a work located. It's it's within
two miles from here. And he'll well, I don't I
don't get it. But anyway you.

Speaker 6 (34:38):
Got to double back, is that you got to double
back with double back two miles.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Let me sell you what Greg.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Greg is not working out for the same reason that
I keep door dashing, But he keeps When I could
walk to a restaurant and stay at the studio and
come right back, then I would do it. But now
that I have to get in my car and go somewhere.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
He keeps his membership. And it's the good. Hey, it's
the good membership too. Why would you keep it because
he's rich. I don't want to get in mex up
you and Hobie. This is back to wait, wait a minute,
you don't.

Speaker 6 (35:10):
Want to be a third wheel on the state exactly.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
I hadn't thought about this. Are you at the point
now where you kind of feel like, I mean, they
got their own thing? Yeah, I don't fit in.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
You can't spend this off on me?

Speaker 1 (35:19):
This Regions and golf, that's right, and that they were
going to talk about things you're not interested in, Speedy,
I have an account at Regions.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
You want me to help you out? It it off
and all that, so good, But this is what we
missed the workout. You know, he's loud enough to where
that we had the lunk alarm. They've done dumbed it down.
They ain't doing a lot. It ain't worth going.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Wait a minute, wait, mister, get after it. They down
to a ten minute workout. Wait a minute, great, Wait
a minute. My mom has an account Regions. You want
to ask her about the about the golf tournament?

Speaker 2 (35:52):
I would I would love to sit down with your mom,
and you know what I'd love to do. I'd love
to get a car fixed because apparently her two sons
won't help.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
Well, the bells told on that, Yeah, we gotta do it,
we gotta pick You know who got it, you know
who caused it?

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Our sister. Yeah, well I don't blame her. Our sister
broke down car out there.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
That is fine yesterday, But basically yesterday our sister tattled
on us.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
Bottom line, she's probably like, why in the car running?
That's exactly what our sister did you. I mean, go
get a new battery. Take that one out, run, go
get a new battery.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
Put it in one thing. You don't know about your
handy now, but you don't know about the car. The
battery is in a weird place.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Well, what kind of car is it? Just popped a
little rubber screwed whatever caps off and then take all that.
He'd be that hard. You're handy, now, you should be
able to know that.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
I didn't think about that.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
I got my Phillips set.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
I'm headed that way.

Speaker 6 (36:41):
Wait, why is it in a weird place?

Speaker 1 (36:43):
I don't know, like we were going to simply remember,
we're gonna simply jump it off one thing and find
out you have to connect to some weird air now,
is that different that that's.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
I ain't even looked.

Speaker 6 (36:52):
Greg, It's this is not honestly something probably you should
be taking.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Shouldn't you be getting us a video ready for how
we make taffy?

Speaker 6 (36:58):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (36:58):
Yeah, is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
I got to take a route if I if I
ever want to update anybody today on some of the
stories that are a little more serious, I realized that
I'm gonna have to ease my way there. So I'm
going to take a left on Bernie Sanders Avenue, you know,
to see if I can kind of find my way,
you know, to some bit the way around the helicopter learning.
You see, if I can get to some of these
other stories. Bernie, Bernie, Bernie. It's always fun to hear

(37:31):
feel the burn, feel the burn burn. Of course, UH
tells us all how we should live while living another way,
and he does it in a disgusted voice like he's mad. Oh,
he's always angry. So Bernie UH wants us to know
that he's going to make no apologies for the fact
that he's been traveling in a private jet to go

(37:51):
out and fight to save the planet and the UH
and all the that they're they're really why destroying it
according to them, So he's going out wanting to warn
us about climate change and warn us that we've got
olig arts in our country now. The wealthiest people are
running our country. And Trump's put all the wealthy people

(38:14):
together now while he is flying around to tell us
this on a private jet. Yeah, you know, basically he's
telling us we should be upset with people like him.
But at the same time he makes no apology for that.
So let's hear just kind of a montage of the
ever contradicting Bernie Sanders.

Speaker 6 (38:33):
Here we go, and this is a video he put out.
The debate is long over, climate change.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Is real, and it's here.

Speaker 7 (38:39):
The debate is long over, climate change is real. My god,
look at this it is.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
I mean, it is block after block here.

Speaker 7 (38:47):
This is a very very major crisis.

Speaker 6 (38:51):
And here he is saying that we directly have to
be involved.

Speaker 4 (38:54):
What we're doing now is speaking to the American people
and saying, you have got to be involved in this
process because if you want not, the planet that we're
going to leave to our kids and our grandchildren will
be significantly less habitable by.

Speaker 6 (39:09):
And then now that Brett Bear is what we can
go to here. If you guys want to set that up.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Yeah, this is when he's going to say, well, I
have to be in a private jet. It's the same
thing that we were told by lawns face on horse
what's horse face, isn't it?

Speaker 6 (39:21):
Harry here?

Speaker 1 (39:22):
John Kerry told us the same thing. What we need,
we as the peons, need to shut our mouths. And
we don't understand how important these people are. And they've
got a schedule to keep and they can't keep the
schedule any other way.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
So here here he is.

Speaker 13 (39:36):
You know, alyssa slocking senator from Michigan, she said you
shouldn't be using an oligarch.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
It's over people's head.

Speaker 13 (39:42):
You've gotten criticized from other people. Free Beacon says Bernie
Sanders spent two hundred and twenty one thousand on private
jets fighting the oligarchy tour paid for by friends of
Bernie Sanders. That you've spent millions of dollars in campaign
funds on private jet travel over the years.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
How do you push back on both of those.

Speaker 5 (40:00):
When's the last time you saw Donald Trump during a
campaign mode at National Airport?

Speaker 1 (40:05):
No, no, no, it doesn't.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
But he's also not fighting the aligarchy.

Speaker 5 (40:09):
No, and you run a campaign and you do three
or four or five rallies in a week. The only
way you can get around to talk to thirty thousand people.
I think I'm going to be sitting on a waiting
line at United waiting. You know what, thirty thousand people
are waiting. That's the only way you can get around.
No apologies for that. That's what campaign travel is about.
We've done it in the past, We're going to do
it in the future.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Y'all don't do it.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Well, I'll see, Well he's not rocky. But again, here's
the problem. What he is saying is actually correct. It's
the reason why, from time to time, when I can
and it makes sense, there are times I have to
travel travel, we have to travel as a team privately
because it's the only way that we can make the
schedule work. There is no other way to do it

(40:53):
or not do it. It's impossible because you do have
to sit and wait and you get delays and we're
just like even me trying to get the Nebraska back.
It was over the weekend, so it didn't matter. But
I will tell you that, you know what travel scheduled
that I had to agree to whatever the airlines offered.
You know what, I like to have been home a
little earlier on Saturday, with us having to get up

(41:15):
and teach and be at church next morning. I would have,
but I had to take the only one that the
commercial airline offered, and then it got delayed and then
we got home.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
But you know, no big deal.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
But now if I've got to get back for the
show or I'm like one of these people, I have
five rallies thirty thousand people, it's the only way to
do it. I agree with that, because I know that's
just common sense. But when Donald Trump does it or
somebody on the right does it, you, Bernie, you demonize
them for doing it right, and then you do it,

(41:48):
and we're supposed to understand, well, maybe what you just
presented is the same situation your opponents are in as
well when they travel. So either it's okay to travel
privately to make your schedule or it's not.

Speaker 5 (42:02):
Not.

Speaker 1 (42:02):
It's okay for me to do it because I'm so important,
But when the right does it, they're just being a
bunch of evil rich people. It can't be it's one
of the other.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
Or to be out there with AOC with a new
Green Deal and all this and the environment and this that,
and y'all do this, and y'all do that. Now let
me go get my plane and fly around it. Just
don't have that rhetoric and tell everybody else what they
need to do and then you run around doing something else.
Exactly Donald Trump.

Speaker 6 (42:26):
He said, Donald Trump is doing it. And then Brett
Bhaar said, yeah, but Donald Trump isn't trying to fight
the oligarchy. What Brett Bear should have said is, no,
Donald Trump isn't out here beating the drum of climate
panic telling people not to have kids because the oceans
are arising. Bernie Sanders in twenty nineteen, scientists are telling
us that if we don't get act together eight or
nine years, we're talking about cities all over the world

(42:48):
going underwater. You know, Donald Trump is not the one
out there saying that that alone. Yeah, trying to run
people's lives based on a climate hoax.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
Brett Bhar corrected him on that, rightfully, so said, now
that's apples and oranges. He doesn't claim that private jets
are doing anything wrong. You claim that private flight and
anything involving you know, this type of fuel is going
to destroy the earth. I will say, no matter what
your schedule is, And I agree that he can't do
the schedule flying commercial.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
I agree with that.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
However, if you believe that private airplanes are destroying the planet,
and you truly believe that, you wouldn't get on them.
I mean, what he's really saying is, well, I'll destroy
the planet to make my dates. Yeah, that didn't make
any sense.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Now.

Speaker 1 (43:37):
I understand that what he's saying about his dates is true.
But you say that us flying around like this is
causing unnecessary carbon footprints, Well you must not believe that
because you're doing it now if you want to see conviction,
I would have liked to have made more dates and
gone to more rallies, But in order to do that
I would have to destroy the earth. I mean, I

(43:57):
disagree with that. I don't think you are, but you
sure do have convinct, spread your rallies out to it.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
You don't have to fly.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
What you're telling us is you really have no conviction
about this. You're using it as a tool to scare
people so hopefully they'll vote for you. That's how I'm
taking it.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
Because of how you're living, not because of what you're saying, Yes,
And as far.

Speaker 6 (44:13):
As them fighting the oligarchy, more billionaires donated to Democrats
than Republicans in this last election. So if anybody's the
party of oligarchy, of the oligarchy, that's Democrats. It's not Republicans.
They're the Republicans of the Party of the working Class.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
Yeah, Rick, it's the water ball adlers can get email
on that one.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
It's the water bottle in that analogy. You know they're
killing us, but yeah, you're drinking out of one. So
that means you don't really believe.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
Though they don't believe it's you don't really believe it.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
It's just don't believe it. No, it's just it's a
tight up crap.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
It's a talking point that separates our ideology from the
other ideology, and we use it to try to get
vote and hopefully we'll all have enough walking around since
that we can see the way they live and go
that it's impossible for them to believe it impossible because
no matter what it took to save the planet, you
would do it. And what you're saying is, well, I'll

(45:07):
get to saving the planet eventually after I've caused a
huge carbon footprint trying to get elected so I can
save it. I mean, that's what we're and we're just
not that stupid.

Speaker 6 (45:16):
You think I'm going to standard line like some chump,
like some everyday bullets, And come on.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
I'll be over that United.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Durap.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
And by the way, nobody flies on United all right,
top of the hour, unless you just have to. We'll
be back, stay close, all right. So a couple of
things make Mama smile again. The winner will be announced Monday.

(45:49):
We'll announce all the groupings for the region's program where
we will be broadcasting live next Wednesday. That'll be coming
up on Monday's program, So if you want to donate
and be either with speediest group or any of the groups,
we'll announce that with Gene Hollman. Also coming up on Monday, today,
we record the first episode of a brand new podcast,

(46:11):
Strange Encounters. That'll be coming out episode one this weekend.
So that's another thing. And May thirteenth will be the
official release for the brand new book Men Don't Run
in the Rain. All of those updates we have given
you today. So it's active, active, active, I mean lots
lots of lots going on. Tales from the camp House,

(46:31):
the Fishing Tournament. That episode coming out Memorial Day weekend.
So a lot of number of updates on the program today,
and we do have a lot more to cover from
text Nation. Hey Burge, nice transition. Now that we've turned
into Bernie Sanders, I'm anxious for the helicopter update. So
I think that did get us ready. Thanks good transition.

(46:54):
Got everything's settled a little bit. And now I have
been talking with some pilots that that would be with
no uh and friends that are pilot friends that I
have not spoke to Hobe about it, So I don't
we mynd one Jack, I'll check with Hoby, all right.
But now there's all kinds of photos about the New
York City tour helicopter that suddenly which was which was

(47:17):
really bizarre, broke apart mid air before that horrible fatal
crash in the Hudson River. Yeah, uh and uh. Now
now they've been looking over a witness photos the National
Transportation Safety Board uh and said it showed the tour
helicopter that crashed into the Hudson River h breaking apart
mid air before plunging into the water and sadly taking

(47:41):
six people's lives. It shows that the fuselage containing the
engine and main rotor blade assembly completely separated from the
tail boom. Another that was not me.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
That wasn't me.

Speaker 11 (47:58):
That was not me.

Speaker 6 (47:59):
My Michae was not on. My mic was on.

Speaker 2 (48:02):
I was just sitting here. Okay, all right, I'm moving on.
I think it was Greg. Wouldn't I see your face?
I was just sitting here, seeing I was sitting here.
I was being very respectful.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
If I'm going to do this up there, I cut
the mics off, I think.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Taking off. He han't taking them off.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
Okay, So so anyway, other photos the main rotor blades
with the attached transmission and roof structure could be seen
broken apart from the futurelage as well. Now, the thing
that's a little disappointing in this story is you think
you're going to get to the part to where they're
going to say, so, here's what happened, and they really don't.

(48:45):
All they do to me is say that the pictures
that they have confirm what I think we all saw,
uh in the various videos. Uh, and it and it
talked about you know, where it went and where how
it was approaching, and then it just seems to come
apart and landed as we saw upside down. This is

(49:05):
where I'm disappointed. Nothing has indicated that the helicopter collided
with the building. I see that we knew that, Nor
do we have exactly the cause of the crash other
than what we can see. But no one is really
telling us why it came apart like it did. It
said the aircraft was not equipped with any video or

(49:25):
data recording devices. Photos of the pilot taking just before
the flight showed him we're in computer augmented sunglasses which
had video and audio recording capability, but the sunglasses were
not recovered, so they don't have that.

Speaker 6 (49:41):
That's surprise, yall that there's not a like a black box.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
On this uh and not required it does.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
That's not yeah all. They don't tell you why it
broken that we see it broken, that right, yea, we
just needed the story is just saying that the photos
have confirmed this, but they still do not know why
it all broke apart. Now, this is just nothing but.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
What's kind of early into the investigation, right right.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
It's nothing but talking to you to pilots who have
done helicopters and also fly aircraft of various kinds. And
this is not me, This is not my opinion, this
is not anything. These are people that do this for
a living, and they're saying, when this is all said
and done, it's gonna be pilot error.

Speaker 2 (50:27):
Did it came apart? He said, he he did a move.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
That can cause this to happen if the helicopter is
put under that kind of dress. And I mean, ultimately
it's gonna be equipment failure. But what they're saying is
what he did put put pressure on the equipment that
can cause.

Speaker 2 (50:46):
This, you know, and you wonder if that's the case.
It was just a sight seeing to her, So what.

Speaker 4 (50:51):
Do you what? What?

Speaker 2 (50:51):
What are you doing that again?

Speaker 1 (50:55):
I don't I don't know. I said I was not.
It was part of the own going day. I think
what he was talking about is kind of a you know,
this was not the first flight he'd made. Yeah, you know,
and so but we'll see that. That is not what
this story says. It really is just saying that we
now see what we all had seen, that it is

(51:16):
confirmed that you know, it broke apart. Now, I guess
the next thing we'll need is we'll need to know
why it broke apart. And that still is not really
in this story. And it just talked about the maneuvers
that the helicopter made, the route that it took, and

(51:38):
when everything happened, and sadly how it ended up in
the river, so Yo.

Speaker 6 (51:42):
And I'm watching it right now and it's just doesn't
it just seems like he's flying in a straight line.
He's going to go behind the building here, it'll pop
back out. And again I'm so surprised. There's no kind
of black box or anything. This is a two million
dollar helicopter and it just it just breaks in half.

Speaker 2 (51:59):
Yeah, this is the moment. Yes, it was just flying
in a straight so that Oh that's so sad.

Speaker 6 (52:06):
Yes, it's just it's just flying. It just looks like
it's flying.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
As somebody texted, lo, g pushover. What does that mean?
I don't know. Again, that's that's.

Speaker 6 (52:14):
That's the maybe the move that they're talking about, that
that causes the propeller to sheer off.

Speaker 2 (52:19):
Like but in this footage, now the damage must have
already been done. That's obvious. But in this footage, you're right,
it just show shows him flying over the Hudson.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
Before it had to be What they would say is
what you're seeing is they don't know it, but because
of what's been done prior to this, it's now about
to come upon.

Speaker 3 (52:36):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (52:36):
Okay? So, and again I don't I don't have any
expertise on this at all. It's just what.

Speaker 1 (52:43):
A couple of pilots that I talked to said that
that's their opinion of it, but.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (52:48):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
And unfortunately, this story is just telling us that everything
we thought we saw has now been confirmed.

Speaker 2 (52:55):
So finally got that up.

Speaker 6 (52:57):
Said yeah, thanks, I'm glad we got through that.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
Scary We'll be back.

Speaker 6 (53:02):
I'm scared of helicopters, man, I'll be honest.

Speaker 2 (53:04):
I always have been, always have been.

Speaker 6 (53:07):
Just now are I've never been in one? But just
you know, what was that country artist that passed away?
Part of Big and Rich, wasn't it?

Speaker 4 (53:15):
No?

Speaker 6 (53:15):
It was Big and Rich.

Speaker 1 (53:17):
Darn it.

Speaker 7 (53:17):
This is the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
Uh, Adam Montgomery Gentry and Troy Gentry.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
So you were looking for there?

Speaker 6 (53:30):
Yeah, the break music got me right.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
If you felt the pressure of it, didn't.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
You forget Alison and Davy Allison right right?

Speaker 1 (53:39):
An helicopter helicopters, So, but you've been afraid of helicopters
your whole life.

Speaker 6 (53:44):
No since since Montgomery, Gentry.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
Stevie ray Vaughan, Stevie Rayvaughn too, and and the list
goes on or no. Uh so anyway that there was
there was that date finally got it in.

Speaker 6 (53:57):
Uh, they didn't have Kobe Tobe Cobe, Kobe, Kobe Bryant.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
Hoby's fine.

Speaker 2 (54:06):
Yeah, wasn't that that one happened? You know, the conditions
thing is always to that was weird? Yeah, but did
this one just didn't seem like there was any weather
issue at all, and just it was just a the Kobe.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Thing was like the weather and all. They probably shouldn't
have been attempting it and went that way. But they
think like the pilot was trying to be sharp because
it was Kobe, I wanting trying to come through. Trying
to come through may be misjudged, is ability? Oh yeah
yeah uh And I may have made that up, but
I heard something like that.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
And I know that there's a lot of pilots that
do things that involve you know, clients and private and
they tell stories of sometimes they get pressured a lot
by people going.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Hey, we can't fool around by that I got to
get through this.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
I can't be doing that and going through the storm,
and you have to as a pilot just stand up
saying nope. The biggest wake up call I had one
time was there some sort of snow situation and I
like this, and Sherry was concerned. I was trying to
get back from Missouri, I think, and she was like, hey,
you just need to stay there and just wait, and
you know, don't take any chances. In Oscar, who we've

(55:11):
been working with for years, he said, hand me the phone.
He said, Hey, Sherry, your husband's all right. I like him, Okay,
but we're not gonna do anything dangerous cause I don't
want to die. Yeah, I'm going to look after me.
I'm a person to and me looking after me is
going to be sure your husband's safe.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
You know that kind of deal. Let's go to haybirds.
We got some hayburds today, a few got a few
hay birds.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
Hey, these are emails coming from you the audience, with
questions to ponder information that you'd like, whatever the case
may be. Uh, you send those to me, and if
you put in the subject line hey bird, hey bird,
then I know that you said this it can be

(55:56):
for a discussion on air if you guys want to.
Uh so this one, Hey Bird, Hey Burde. This comes
from Clint Clint Bird and I know speedy. This is
gonna wake you up real quick when you hear his
topic two observations about baby brother Gregory. What mm hmm
all rights should we tell Clint?

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Not today for this the boy, I me tell you.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
Bring it on, Clint, Please ask baby brother Gregory just
say the word tortilla.

Speaker 14 (56:27):
Tortilla, tortilla. That's it there, It is tortilla chip. Like
we said, the double L makes a your you toertilla sound.

Speaker 1 (56:39):
He says that greg usually says tortilla, tortilla, tortilla. I
give him man, okay, Well so you're open to the
like if you me and him got a fight with
that matter, I will somehow give him an advantage.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
I don't think so, all right. I warned Clint about that.
I'm just saying that's not important things. It don't matter.
That's one does not fortilla.

Speaker 4 (57:02):
No.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
No, do you hear you saying tortillo tortilla, tortilla?

Speaker 1 (57:09):
Yes, said the tortilla.

Speaker 2 (57:11):
You want to tilla, it's a tortilla. We'll work on
that bad.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
We want Gregory to be happy.

Speaker 6 (57:16):
Tilla the double l is a y, not a double.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
That's one tilla wed stinking tortilla. Listen, I'm an American. Okay, listen,
I'm American. Uh number two.

Speaker 2 (57:33):
Tortilla.

Speaker 1 (57:35):
I've been to the old studio. Now this one, this
is one that you may not want out. I don't
care what. Okay, I've been to the old studio several times. Oh,
we're coming in hot. I didn't clink, she said. I
was even there when Uncle Duke twirled his way through
the studio. What a day. I will have to say
that Greg is right again when he says that he

(57:59):
is the nicest person on the staff. Okay, now I
like Clint again. Back to liking Clint again, fight over again.
I was about to call him a stalker, but now
I'm not. The reason why I think Greg is the
nicest person on the staff is because of his incredible
BS meter.

Speaker 2 (58:16):
Now I got one of them.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
Yes you do, Greg, you make that curse curse. I
think that can overshadow his generally pleasant dismeanor demeanor.

Speaker 2 (58:27):
I'm sorry, I'm working on tortilla.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
Yeah, so he said, of course, when I was there,
I was overwhelmed by Speedy took his breath. He said,
he is over the top.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
You just made that.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
That's right here, I'm reading it.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
I said that.

Speaker 1 (58:42):
Now he's doing a bit, he said, I would call
it super nice, but that doesn't mean it counts because
I don't know how sincere it was.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
Because that's the way Greg, Greg's painted this picture and speed.
Just because I'm not you, and don't think like you
don't mean that I'm not right. I'm not saying they're right.
I'm just saying it, you.

Speaker 4 (59:00):
Know.

Speaker 1 (59:01):
But when I'm not saying, but you're so maybe you're
just a really good person. You're so happy to see
everybody and over the top. It comes across like nobody's
that happy, only to you. What Clint has revealed is
that Greg and Ada. I think you'll agree you're two
INDs of the spectrum.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
He said.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
Greg comes across as nice because I expect him to
be so mean. Yeah, the Speedy comes across is I'm
not sure, because I'm not sure I'm sincereous because I
expect he's too over the top. So when I see
over the top, I've heard about over the top, he
are as you as you're pointing out speedy. This guy's
maintained a little bit because he s heard what Greg said,
so when he sees it, he didn't know if it's

(59:37):
a genuine article.

Speaker 2 (59:38):
Well, let me just tell you this. It's almost like
when people get here and they go, well, Adler, you're
not that tiny yeah, and you know know, and Adlai goes, now,
I'm a real person and Andy, but the.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
Hey bird a birds from Adam Hey just ran across
the lady stumping grapes video. It was just rotating around
on Instagram. I got I got to ask you guys something.
Do you think this is the walking dog of hilarious
awkward TV commentator moments? Has there ever been anything that
can top it? I still laugh every time I see it,
especially when the news guy acts concerned about the woman

(01:00:17):
who just face planted. By the way, if this is
usually on the show, I'd love to hear from Greg
on what she wanted by getting on those few extra
stamps before she face planted. Have nothing else, have fun
getting Addler to pull up a classic for you guys
to watch again.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Love the show.

Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
Can't wait for the book coming out. I was the
guy who told you that the bills were drafting. You
like the prank call to shir Door Sanders funny, that
was funny.

Speaker 2 (01:00:43):
Uh yeah, he's been showing the fall here. She got
her big toes stuck on top.

Speaker 1 (01:00:47):
Of what was she trying to do?

Speaker 4 (01:00:49):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
And he just doing a bit one of the But
I will agree with him.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
The reaction of the panel maybe the best part because
they're still oh that's got to hurt. They stayed in
their professional voices. Yeah, I mean, the fall is funny.
There's hardly any fault that's not funny. Yeah, but I
do think as far as a scene news commentator footage, this.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Is the best. Oh yeah, I agree.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
There's some good ones.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
There's some good this.

Speaker 6 (01:01:20):
Should probably watch it just to be sure.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
We go ahead. Buckets are filled with grapes.

Speaker 9 (01:01:24):
What kind of grapes?

Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
These are filled with Shamberson grapes? And the winner.

Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
This Saturday's tolling music, eating international.

Speaker 9 (01:01:31):
Foods, having wine tours and tasting, then your tours seminars,
arts and crafts.

Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
It's a lot of fun a whole day. Oh yeah,
ow ow ow house up up.

Speaker 4 (01:01:51):
Like you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
No, so, yeah, we're great, lady.

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
It's still gotta be the walking Dog's gotta be That's
that's a classic. I don't know of anything that can trumpet.
There's some good ones out there. I'm just talking it
better than that. I don't know from text nation. I
wish there would have been audio and video available when
Rick jumped on the moonwalk that had the air no

(01:02:29):
longer pressurized and went right to it. By the way,
I felt the same way she did. I had the
same thing happened. Amen, you all right, Well, I'm fine.

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:43):
Then when I jumped out of that window on that trampoline,
same thing, same thing. I couldn't I couldn't even speak.

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
It was yeah, we forget about that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
I wish I had video of Greg jumping out of
the you know, our moms and Dad's house onto a
trampoline about two stories high and in the trampline was
worn out.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
So I just hit the ground. Yep, you did, you
sure did.

Speaker 1 (01:03:04):
Found on my butt bone hurt and went And the
thing is the trampoline to have enough spring it to
shoot him back up again. And he comes up holding
holding his hold, and he realized he's going back down again. Oh,
by the way, that affected your structure, your whole skeleton. Yeah, man,
I still struggle from that, right, Yeah, And you remember,
and I'm looking out the window. I'm like, I don't

(01:03:26):
I'll call an ambulets, but I'm I cannot stop laughing.
He loved it. Yeah, I cannot stop laughing.

Speaker 2 (01:03:32):
I'm still messed up from the high the Olympic high
dive platform platform. I stayed up there for ten, like
ten minutes point Mallard. Yeah, and the line was getting along.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
Everybody's like, so you were.

Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
Holding the lines? Jumped covid my goodness, in my mind,
I did. I was then and when I when I jumped,
I kind of started going backwards, the worst case, and
I hit flat on my back so bad, flat on
my back. Look, I was not gonna say that. Oh yeah, lifeguards,

(01:04:07):
I mean Joe red shorts were kept swimming to you.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
Hold everybody up.

Speaker 4 (01:04:14):
Jump.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
I'm gonna push my bottom ribs out this.

not a whole lot you can do about it. No, yeah,
so so that I know exactly how you. Oh yeah,

Speaker 6 (01:05:05):
But oh yeah, that tailbone takes a long.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
How much of this one care over here? None?

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
That's pretty hard, Like I just did and just left me.
And of course one does not talked about a whole
lot for obvious reasons. Is Greg AlSi still suffers long
term injury. Oh for deciding to do an atomic elbow
on the Gulf of Mexico. Yeah, I'm sorry, Gulf of America,
the beach sand, don't give Greg jumped up in the
air and was gonna show us how I could come

(01:05:30):
from the top ring rope onto the sand and that sand. Actually,
like nothing happened. God, it was like I hit a
concrete and they just left me and I just laid
there in the sand. Yeah, we just we just told
you to work through it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
I told him I get with you in a minute.
That is that one and when you were went skiing
for the show and you you can you remember that
after we went skin you know you hit hard when
the water takes your shorts. Yeah, my shorts off of
them and knocked me out nearly, No, it did. I
bested it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:59):
That was a great one.

Speaker 2 (01:06:00):
Now that one. We did get them. But do you
remember the video when he was squatting down with his
hand in the water.

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
Yes see I got I got trying to be sharp,
I dropped one and said I watched miss Slalom. Yes
you did.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
How about when you get come across that way, you
were going to shoot a richter tail at your age
at that time, did Rick? It all came back to me.
So there was one point where you were trying to
find your shorts in the water, but they just round
around your.

Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Sweedy he got he got his pants up and caught
a brim.

Speaker 2 (01:06:41):
What story.

Speaker 1 (01:06:43):
Presentations there, mister Chen Wait a minute, knock me out?

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Also? Uh yeah, yeah, the of course you know you
did that.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
Older. I crashed so bad because when we were growing up,
I mean, there were no it was water skiing or nothing.
Oh yeah, my grandmother will whether you wanted to skire
or not, you're going to learn to ski. You're going
to ski on that Black Warrior River. And and so
we all had the Lune ski until her late sixties.

Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
Yes you did. And uh, picture of that.

Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
But when you when you go from two to one,
the busting your rear in on the water takes a
whole new level because when you have too you can
kind of minimize it.

Speaker 12 (01:07:33):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
And the same thing. I was trying to be sharp
because I was younger then and we were going so fast.
Oh yeah, and that water is like concrete, and I
thought I was gonna be sharp. And suddenly I realized
the blade had left the water, you know, And I'm
trying I'm trying to sider rudder in the water.

Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
You're gone.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
And I went across the top of that water like
like somebody. I was a flat ron Like somebody threw
me like a flat right. And and and when you
know it's bad is when you find start trying to
breaststroke out and you hear an echo and you realize
you're in somebody's boat house.

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
I was like, why is that that going?

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
But my voice is, oh no, I'm in heaven.

Speaker 4 (01:08:12):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:08:13):
It killed me.

Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
Now I thank goodness, the doors were opening, the boat
was gone.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
Yeah, there he comes.

Speaker 1 (01:08:19):
You know, wait a minute, I'm in somebody's boat house.

Speaker 2 (01:08:23):
Uh gracious.

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
Also in the break, for some reason, Great declared he
doesn't like Stephen A. Smith and he wants to fight him.

Speaker 2 (01:08:29):
Well, he was just ever talking. Sometimes he gets that attitude.

Speaker 1 (01:08:32):
You don't like this, make a point. You don't like
Stephen A. Smith's attitude sometimes. I mean sometimes I agree
with his opinion, I just don't like the presentation.

Speaker 2 (01:08:41):
What is he doing? He just got, you know, like
and I'm edgy. Every time I talk in I'm gonna
say damn in hell naws every chance. So he does
all that.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
Yeah, you think he's doing that to be educ You
could have you could have just told us that.

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
Was only all fair.

Speaker 1 (01:08:58):
Yeah, but yeah, yeah, but I agree with him on
a lot of stuff. But he said I can't have
too much of it. Would you like for him just
to say something regular without it, without going he starts out,
and you like to see him not going to that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:11):
Atitude every single time.

Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
Every time sometimes it's called for you know, he says,
just signed a huge contract, so he cares. I'm sure
we know he's double dipping. He's he's getting some off
Fox taste about the General Hospital.

Speaker 6 (01:09:24):
Well, and he's also said that he has no choice
but to consider running for president.

Speaker 1 (01:09:29):
M H for as a Democrat. I think so, yes, yeah, not.
You know, I did hear him saying that, but I
thought he was joking.

Speaker 2 (01:09:39):
He can do anything.

Speaker 6 (01:09:39):
He's I think it's just for press. He's saying, of
course it is. He's not really saying that. He's saying
he's going to consider.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
Like we thought Trump was doing the first time he ran,
right right, We thought we were just kidding.

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
Is at the.

Speaker 1 (01:09:53):
Present you're just saying one time you like to see
him just go Well, you know, I have to disagree
with that. I think maybe as opposed to it's.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
Always I don't talk straight to you right now. Yeah,
he's always putting you and you play.

Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
I see. It's not just to let me make a point.
I got to put you in because sometimes that's necessary.

Speaker 9 (01:10:08):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
It is so.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (01:10:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
But the the other thing, uh is And this could
happen next Wednesday live on location. The murmur is speaking of,
you know, Stephen A. Smith running for president, that Tuberville
is about to run for governor of Alabama.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
Do we want that?

Speaker 1 (01:10:30):
Do you think he can he do more for the country,
can't go another round? Well, no, Greg, I don't mean
that at all. Uh No, I think we're k down.
Thank you, miss Ky good run Wow. But of a run.
Heck of a run, she says her behind that boat him.
It's one of those things that that makes you proud.

(01:10:51):
But I'm but what I'm wondering is I don't I worry.
I'm not worried, But I mean, are we losing? Tommy
Tuberville is really getting after it as a senator.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
And I think it's more important.

Speaker 1 (01:11:02):
We're all happy with him as a senator, even Democrats,
and excuse me, I should say different, not Democrats, Tide fans,
because you know, I thought him running being coaching at Auburn,
he couldn't get any Tide votes.

Speaker 15 (01:11:13):
But he has.

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
Yeah, oh yeah, And but he's doing a really good job.
He seems to fight. If you move him to a governor,
certainly the people of Alabama might benefit more, but the
nation kind of loses a fighter. The governor's really that
big of an end, That's what I'm saying. They have
more impact than a senator.

Speaker 2 (01:11:32):
Within the state. Maybe but that's a tough one, and I.

Speaker 1 (01:11:37):
Think it's I think it's foregone. I don't I ain't
gonna say it, Greg, I'm just saying evidently.

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
From there we go, there you go. So I'm not
going to say it, and I'm gonna say it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
Is that just something you can you can you can
go in the state with that a lot of action,
or just you're saying it's an easier job. Well of
the last couple of year, that looks like that years
a couple of you go kind of looks.

Speaker 2 (01:12:01):
That way, don't it. Does it pay as well? I
don't know about that. Probably not term limit.

Speaker 6 (01:12:07):
I think they're both pretty good. I think the chance,
the opportunities that both give are The money's no issue.

Speaker 1 (01:12:13):
Now I could now I could hear this and totally
understand it. I can't be in Washington anymore. It's too
dark up here. I'm sick of it. Yeah, I'd rather
come back home to Alabama and and just deal with Alabama.

Speaker 4 (01:12:24):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:12:24):
I can see that from just a lifestyle choice, a
quality of life. But as an American, do I want
to lose him a Senate?

Speaker 6 (01:12:31):
I know plus Ainsworth will Ainsworth being in the in
the game there too.

Speaker 1 (01:12:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:12:36):
Yeah, now, uh, Tommy Turberville did announce his candidacy four
Senate on your show. When he made the announcement, he
announced it on your show. Are you are we interviewing
him on Wednesday at the upcoming regions tradition? You are
we are interviewing him?

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
Yep, he said right there when I'm been announced? What
if he announces again? I mean, we'll see.

Speaker 7 (01:12:59):
This is the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 1 (01:13:07):
Three Doors Down the band Greg, Where are you on
Three Doors Down? You like Three Doors Down? I know
that when they were on a tour with Creed, Is
that right, Adler? I had more people come up to me.
Adler told me too, because he was there talking about
that these two bands when they went to see them,
when they came through you know, our part of the world,

(01:13:30):
that they did one of the most clear, precise gospel presentations,
both Creed and Three Doors Down. Yes, and said it
was not you know how sometimes if you know, entertainers
try something like this, it comes across as corny, y
are they just kind of ramble around about it or whatever?

Speaker 2 (01:13:48):
That this was precise, It was well delivered.

Speaker 6 (01:13:52):
Yeah, Brad Arnold from Three Doors Down, he was much
more clear Scott's staff of Creed, he was probably more
big picture, ye, a bigger picture of hope, sure, whereas
Brad Arnold from three Doors Down was probably more clear
about giving a gospel message.

Speaker 1 (01:14:10):
Yeah, that's the one they kept bragging on. They were
like they said, this guy was like a great teacher,
theologically sound, presented it beautifully, didn't you know, put it
in the concert where it didn't turn into a long
monologue or anything. Just very precise to the point. Well,
Brad Arnold has now made another announcement, and this will
just be another way, you know, not the one we

(01:14:31):
want for him to glorify the Lord and Savior that
he acknowledges. He's announced that he is unfortunately, he has
been diagnosed with stage four cancer. So here's here's his announcement.

Speaker 15 (01:14:43):
Hey, everybody gets spread from three doors down, I hope
you're havn't a great day to day.

Speaker 8 (01:14:48):
Got some not so good news for you today and said,
been sickly a couple of weeks ago and then went.

Speaker 15 (01:14:55):
To the hospital and got a got checked out and
had actually got diagnosis that I had a Christian arenal
carson one that it tests to size into my mum
and uh and that's uh, it's stage four and that's.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Not real good.

Speaker 8 (01:15:13):
But you know what, we we serve a mighty God
and he can over he can over do, he can
overcome anything.

Speaker 6 (01:15:21):
So I have no fear or really, sincerely, I'm not
scared of it at all.

Speaker 8 (01:15:26):
But it is gonna forces to cancel our tour this summer,
and uh, we're sorry for that. And I'd love for
you to lift me up in prairie you get and uh,
I think it's time for me to maybe go this
to my it's not my time a little bit, right.
Thank you guys so much.

Speaker 2 (01:15:46):
God love you, We love you.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
See you.

Speaker 2 (01:15:50):
M wow.

Speaker 1 (01:15:52):
Yeah you could. You could feel the weight of it.
Though I know, I know he's not fearless. Uh, I
mean he's not fearful, and he's fearless as far as
the big picture, but you could feel the weight of it. Yeah,
absolutely understandably. One time, like I said, I liked the music.
I think they're from Mississippi.

Speaker 2 (01:16:10):
But one time I said a good thing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
I was in a gas station on twenty between Birmingham
Atlanta when I was working for the power company, and
I swear it with him, but I didn't get enough nerve.
He was pumping gas in his Mercedes bends and I'm
almost one hundred cents.

Speaker 2 (01:16:24):
Here, but I chickened out. I didn't go up and
ask him. And back then it was KLi.

Speaker 1 (01:16:29):
We're talking twenty years ago, right, but yeah, yeah, well, yeah,
it's interesting that I was just told all these things.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
And of course his faith will be on display.

Speaker 1 (01:16:40):
And I don't have any doubt based on what I've
heard from people who have heard him speak and the
things he just said that he'll pass the test and he'll.

Speaker 2 (01:16:48):
Glorify God the whole way, regardless of the outcome.

Speaker 7 (01:16:51):
So there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:16:52):
So that is for Three Doors Down fans. You probably
know that that was a big announcement yesterday. Also some
other things things that that we have been looking at.
This is back to that fall in Pittsburgh down on
the tins there Adler who knows that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Wow, and we found something some stuff out on him.
Really Yeah, it's it's in this sad that I didn't
know until after his sister was interviewed that they they

says about this? And if you want to join us
for that new podcast, Strange Encounters wherever you get podcasts,
Episode one coming out this weekend, so be looking for that.
It's it's a topic that you know, it's important to

(01:20:42):
be handled in the right way. It sometimes has been
ignored and sometimes I think that we're kind of we
send people out into a battle that is going on,
but they're not really prepared to fight it. So hopefully
this can be used to educate and too, you know,
maybe inform So episode one coming out this weekend. Looking

(01:21:04):
forward to getting this opportunity to do that. Uh So,
look for that wherever you get podcasts this weekend. Okay,
so speedy you understand that, you know sometimes you know,
now I feel like I can join in the conversations
a little more. By the way, take a note maybe
next segment, text Nation is claiming that Gary on his

(01:21:26):
Instagram has posted his neighbors celebrating Senko to Mayo Demayo.
Well he calls it to Mayo. Does Hey, my neighbors
is overdoing Cinco de Mayo and so.

Speaker 2 (01:21:40):
We'll also posted a video of his dog being upset
with him for getting in trouble. Oh really, okay, well
maybe we'll we'll look at that later.

Speaker 1 (01:21:47):
But I feel like now I can join in on
these comer on these conversations and speedy understanding you had
some prepayers you had to do at the house, and
you know, I was a little surprised that you didn't
didn't reach out to me. I mean it's, well, you
know how we different kind of lately.

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
Yeah, different things kind of rub off on this, you know,
different personalities, quirks and stuff like that. Find myself not
believing anything that's a little bit of Greg. And sure,
you know I have Rick your O c D. You know,
want things right in.

Speaker 1 (01:22:18):
Order, don't have O c D. Just like things a
certain way.

Speaker 2 (01:22:20):
Yeah, I feel myself wrestling with everybody that's adler. Not
that going. No, but you've been handy around the house.
I'm going to roll around the house. Changed what you've
What have you done? You need to fix the curtain rod?
That was my latest. You changed a light bulb, and
then what'd you screw down something?

Speaker 1 (01:22:38):
I changed out a nine volt battery. Nine vault battery
was mixture, and I fixed fixed the door knob that
was looser.

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
And you went to a hardware store and got what
you call.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
Leaf rake, and so there's different rakes. Handy people know
the difference.

Speaker 4 (01:22:54):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:22:55):
And so when Terry came to me yesterday and said, hey,
the washing machines broke, I sprung into action. Oh so
you called hobi. No, I did ask him. I said,
what would you do? He go first, I'd get a
Cycad wrench, and so I did. Uh, that's a big commitment. Yeah,
and so then you know, you open up. Uh, it's

(01:23:15):
you opened it up, and then you don't know what
to expect. What have we got in here? And she
was trying. She said something about drum and this and
that and T shirt and uh, and so I opened
it up, and sure enough, and I don't know how,
but a T shirt had gotten stuck in the drum
in a crack and it kind of sucked it down
underneath it, which which just just clogged everything up that

(01:23:37):
the drum wouldn't spin. It was a mess. So I
looked and I said, well, I tell you what's wrong
is is we got to get this agitator off, screw
the agitator wash cap, and we need to get in there.

Speaker 1 (01:23:51):
I thought that was kind of rude. Did she leave herself?

Speaker 2 (01:23:53):
She did, and she said what it is, Greg here?
And I was like, no, I said, according to Google here,
because I did model number, you did google it. Well,
I went. I went to the inside of the washing machine.
I went model number, serial number and the problem, and
it said, well, to get to releasing the drum and
all that, you've got a first, take the wash plate

(01:24:15):
off the agitator and all this kind of stuff to
get to what you need to release the tension to
release the shirt. Well, I go to the grudge and
I get a cycond wrench extension fourteen inches wow and
uh and connected it because the the agitator boy was deep.
And so I get down in there and went called

(01:24:39):
Terry to hold the drum so it wouldn't spin, pop
the edged as to agitator off, release the drum. Got
the T shirt out no way yet.

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
Well there was something else. It was on the Google
mu You had to move plate some kind of well
it was a wash it was.

Speaker 2 (01:24:52):
It was a wash plate. That was the kind of
the cap the top of the ghost to the agitator.
But then when when I opened, when I pulled the
agitator off that's connected to the drum, then everything starts
falling in there. That was like, uh, it was one
of the bitch to the to the socket wrene or whatever.
So now you're hoping that it don't disappear into some hole, right,

(01:25:15):
But luckily it didn't. So there were pieces of the shirt,
but it got it good. I don't know, it's never happened.
We've had this dishwasher for years. It's never happened. Yes,
what's happened? It means it's gonna happen again.

Speaker 1 (01:25:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
Probably it was one of those little fan workout shirts

put it back together. We we we we ran a
cycle with nothing in it, and that some of a
gun is working, I think better than ever, all right,
And I kind of walked away, went over, washed my hands.
My hands were a little dirty. Do you think that's
bigger than what I did? I think that beats the rod.

Speaker 1 (01:26:22):
No, but think of the other things. Do you realize
that nine vote battery was inside of the you know,
the the lock that you have that you do the
combination lot. I had to take that little play that
and make sure you put it back and put it
back right lefty, lefty, left you left you lefty left
