Democrat officials suddenly seek the preservation of "free speech" after "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" is placed on indefinite suspension. AOC, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Eric Swalwell applauded the firing of Tucker Carlson, the deplatforming of Donald Trump, and suppression of the truth during COVID via pressure from the Biden administration. We cut through the lies and explain why it was a business decision made by the owners of ABC to suspend Jimmy Kimmel.

Yeah, I mean, now, you know we do the ugly
Christmas sweater thing.

Speaker 1 (10:10):

But now we go find these outrageous ones, and it's really.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Means you didn't really want to wear it.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
You're just trying to do it because of the thing.

Speaker 7 (10:19):
When it comes to that shirt. Some people say that
there's a woman to blame.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
You know, but I know it's my own fault.

Speaker 9 (10:27):
Here we go.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
This one is a good one. Hey bird, Hey, Bird's
really important. I'm from Lyndale, Georgia, May Lyndale, Georgia. Hey Rick,
I don't know whether you can do this or not.
I know you've been talking about spiritual warfare a lot.
I need to know if the end of time is
September twenty third, and I need to know for a
couple of reasons. On September twenty seventh, my wife has

(10:50):
decided to do an attic clean out. Oh she has
called all three of our daughters to come home to help.
If the world is really ending, I will act like
I'm really ready and excited about this on a college
football day, especially since the Dogs are taking on the
Tide in Athens on that point. If the world is
really ending on the twenty third, can I go ahead

(11:10):
and talk and talk all kinds of trash about the
dogs beating the brakes off the tide, and in that way,
there's no way I can mojo the team. I need
to know if this is gonna happen on the twenty third,
it will really really dictate how I'm gonna behave over
the next few days. I get it, Yeah, that we're
all kind of thinking different things, all right, but I

(11:34):
got bad news. Yeah, I'm gonna tell you you need
to you need to start living your life as if
you're gonna still be here on the twenty fourth. I
do not think the world is gonna end on the
twenty third. So Clay, I'm afraid this Gosh, his wife
wants his daughters to come home and clean the attic
the day tide and the dogs are playing.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
I gotta tell you that that family's pretty organized. I
don't know what I'm doing that day. She's our got
the attic or.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah that's out in front of me, I mean the
dogs and the time. Yeah, well we're gonna clean this.
You're there holding stuff.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Should we keep this?

Speaker 9 (12:11):
No?

Speaker 1 (12:11):
I want to watch the game.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Let's see if we can find out.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
Maybe y'all know this.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
If you've ever done these kind of cleanouts, they go nowhere. No, yeah,
you don't throw anything away. You don't throw anything away.
Keeping that. Yeah, you finally crossed the bridge and say, well,
at least this stuff will be out of my life.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
It's not going out of your life.

Speaker 9 (12:27):
No.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
You find that bag of toys the kid had when
they were little, well, I can't throw those away.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
That his toy.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Here's his only hope. They've announced the game time for
Alabama Georgia. It's ABC six thirty pm Central, early start,
So get after it early.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Let's just go.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
If you're waiting on the world in probably not gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
And do not do not trash talk, No, do not
trash from that. Yeah, because I think this game could
got a pretty good it's gonna be a good game. Yeah,
it's I also found myself in some very important conversation
yesterday thinking well, if the world ends, I don't all this,
I really should just go down when.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
The house got more solut right.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
So, by the way, I think I set a record
last night and at r you were gonna be You're
gonna hate this, Okay, You're you're gonna be so envious.
Not exaggerating I was so wore out yesterday when I
got home that Sherry said, I can't even hardly look
at you. You look so tired.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
She goes, please, just don't.

Speaker 1 (13:25):

a minute. And I was like, I was like, what
she goes, She goes, please, I mean it's making me
tired looking at you. And my head was on the pillow,

(13:48):
was on the pillow. Took me a few minutes to
finally because I was so My mind was like, you
can't go to bed this early, okay, but my head
hit the pillow and I think I was asleep within
about ten minutes. My head hit the pillow at six forty. Wow.

Speaker 7 (14:03):
Crazy.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Now it's helping that it's getting darker earlier naturally. Yeah,
you know, we don't need to play with the cloth.

Speaker 1 (14:09):

from it spinning.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
But I see. Also, if you're going to wear that shirt,
you need some rest. Thanks, that's my last one. No,
it's not.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Now you're kind of a mean person who goes, hey,
you got to rest up to put that on. Well, yeah,
because the shirts got energy. You get a lot of
people about it, right, because I asked.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
You know, my weekend's gonna go really well. And when

Speaker 2 (18:57):
They're their own little world Tube sit I think most.

Speaker 7 (19:00):
Of the people in the chat dressed like that.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Actually, Rick, thank you, good point.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Well hello, then to my fellow Tube city folks that
dress like this, and that's not an offensive thing, no,
of course, not that your tone hit that really well? Yeah,
uh so let's look at these games this weekend. I
will not see any of them, but that's all right.
Uh So, who's interested here? Auburn, Auburn Oklahoma. We'll find

(19:26):
out about the Tigers there, and we'll find out a
little bit about Oklahoma. H So that I think, I
think those two fan bases when that game's over will
be like, okay, okay, that's where we are. We have
some idea where we are because I don't think either
one of them really know yet. They don't, but they're
in similar situations. They are. Both both of them have

(19:48):
got coaches that they need a good they need a
good season. So Texas Tech Utah, I mean seventeen takes
on sixteen. That that's a nice matchup at eleven. Right,
Michigan Nebraska one time would have been a big game.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
But doesn't that just sound. Yeah, it's just that the
Michigan Nebraska just sounds and hey, Nebraska, watch out. I
know they're they're playing. I'm not saying they're gonna win
at all, but they said they're winning it all.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
By the way, you know that.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
I really, really, really have always had kind of a
heart for the corn Huskers, so when they were an
option Nebraska.

Speaker 3 (20:26):
Yeah you like both these teams?

Speaker 1 (20:28):
I do. Yeah, yeah, I've always I was I was
Michigan when Greg was Ohio State, and I was Nebraska.
You were never Oklahoma, were you. I kind of liked Oklahoma. Yeah, okay,
but I like when they were running that triple off.
Oh they could run it. Missouri, South Carolina. South Carolina disappointing,
but let's not take anything away from Vandy. And of

(20:48):
course South Carolina now they won't have their quarterback. Yeah, yeah,
they got protocol, but hey, this is it.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
I don't think he'll play center. Yeah, this is another team.
So you have South Carolina that they were upset. A
lot of folks say by Vandy at home, and I
think they at home. Parts big Missouri is three and
oh and and and they they finished strong and they
run the ball up and down the field. And so
that's one to look at it.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
By the way, if you if Greg and of course
you know we have a lot of ties to Auburn.
Have you seen their next four games? Wow? Whoa look
at it is Oklahoma, Georgia, Missouri, and there's one more
in there that's ugly. So it's a sucker up. Yeah

(21:34):
it'll sch out. Well you'll know at the end of
all that, Yeah you will. There's one more. There's four really, Missouri, Georgia,
I get Oklahoma and and there's one more in there.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
That's that's you have.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
So you have Oklahoma, Oklahoma that you're at Oklahoma, you're
at Texas A and M. There, you host Georgia, you
host Missouri, and you're at Arkansas. Whoa five five games,
and then you host Kentucky and then you got Vanderbilt.
So good night, look.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
At that, Good night look at that.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
So another one here that we have ties too because
of one of our affiliates is Indiana and Indiana. Indiana
and Illinois are playing and that's nineteen and nine. So
that's a big game that has been on NBC Saturday Night.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's a huge game. And then the thing that and
that's caused a little controversy, hadn't it, Because yeah, well,
Game Day says they're going to Miami Florida, right, which
at one time was going to be a great game, right,
and maybe Florida can make it a great game.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Miami's certainly playing well.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
But now there the Game Days saying, I mean, I
understand the people in Indiana and Illinois just be at Indiana.
But the fact that Illinois says we're number nine and
Indiana's number nineteen, y'all going to go to unranked Florida
and number four Miami.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
Yeah, they were having to justify that one, and then
not being at Texas Tech Utah either. So but but
they you know, Ryce Davis came out and had to
help defend it.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
But what did you say.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
I didn't read the whole thing. I just you know,
the storied uh you know rivalry game you have Florida Miami.
I mean, it's just it's just a big game.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Let's just call it.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
No matter who ran to where. That's the bigger game
in my world, right, well in.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
Your world, But that ain't that ain't the whole world?

Speaker 9 (23:21):
Girl?

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Well, I mean I'm sorry, I'm not well, I mean,
didn't ESPN cover more than South Southern School. Not really, No,
they should.

Speaker 9 (23:29):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
Other two other markets that were on in Birmingham and Knoxville.

Speaker 9 (23:33):
U A.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
B is at Tennessee eleven forty five am on the SEC.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
That's gonna be ugly for the Blazers.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
Both those teams are two and one, so we'll see.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
And Clemson fans, you're real disappointed.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Sure Rick taking them to win the whole thing. Syracuse
and Clemson that boy, Clemson every game matters now, yeah, boy,
I mean they get it together, make the playoffs, make
a run.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
How about this. I'm I'm a.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
I'm a I'm a dabbo swingy fan, so here that first, Yeah,
before I say what I want to say next next
in this shirt, and I know when somebody wears this shirt,
you're concerned how they feel. And it's hard to hear
what you're saying about over those flows when and I
know it was mad, I know, but but when when
you're when you're sitting there at one and two and

(24:23):
even the one was against I love I love Troy
all that, but you know you're supposed to beat Troy
pretty bad, okay, and you didn't, especially if you're supposed
to win that stream hip. That's key, right, and you're
supposed to have the best quarterback in the whole college
football landscape. You're one and two and you're on your
one win is a close win over Troy. You're Clemson,
by the way, okay, And I understand being mad about

(24:44):
your coaching legacy there. And you're right when you say
if you are tired of winning at one and two,
you really shouldn't use that analogy then, because most people
probably screamed that, Dabbo, no, we'd like to get back
to winning.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
You know, No, we weren't. We're not tired of winning.
We're tired of losing.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
And and so uh it's uh, I'm not. And look,
daboswiney is a is a good man, and he's a
great coach. Reason he's under this because the success he's had.

Speaker 11 (25:09):
Right.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
But when you get up for a mad at wanting
to and say we if y'all want it, if y'all
tired of winning, y'all get rid of me. Well, no,
we actually liked winning. We're doing that's when we loved you.
When we're winning, we're mad at you because we're not winning.

Speaker 10 (25:21):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
But but then I do not think that's a good move.
I think in the times we're living in, you've got
a great football coach who knows how to win, and
and there's.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
Struggling games were against I mean De Troy game, but
there is.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
Some that's not the best choice of words in the situation.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
You're in right now. Timing, timing, yeah, because.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I can just hear the.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
No no, not so the reason why we're mad because
we like winning.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
We weren't tired of it. That we do have a
couple of things that we need to uh to update
you on today too. Yesterday, Turning Point USA puts Erica Kirk,
Charlie Kirk's wife, as the new CEO of Turning Point USA. Yes,

(26:13):
no surprise, they're good move there because right now, as
we'll talk about this weekend, we talked about it during
the Wednesday Bible Study, We've talked about it on the show,
and we talk about it in Strange Encounters this.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Weekend, is that what the darkness meant for bad?

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Once again, God, who is sovereign over all things, the
darkness played right into God's plan. And now Turning Point
USA and the ministry part of for Charlie and Erica
Kirk is bigger now than it was before this happened,
and it's only going to grow. It has just taken

(26:53):
the light and shone more on what the things they
were saying than before and just In and so it's
I mean, it's it's unbelievable the number of like. I
was Sherry was talking about a post that that Erica
put out, and Sherry put something out yesterday talk you know,

(27:17):
talking about the different women throughout time in the church
that have gone through this. You know, you're you're Elizabeth
Elliott's of Oswald Chambers widow. You know who produced My
Utmost for His Highest? I mean you realized Oswald Chambers,
I mean died at forty three, uh, and his wife
had all her notes from all his sermons, and she's
the one that put together My Most for His Highest,

(27:39):
which has been out since the early nineteen hundreds, so
and still to this day. I read it today, you know,
before work, and it's one of the most powerful daily
devotionals I've ever read. So anyway, she was doing that
and she said, I looked at her post. Do you
realize Rick, she gets millions, millions of of likes in

(28:02):
tens of thousands of comments. She says she had fifty
thousand comments, and I said, no, no, she goes, this
thing is just growing and growing and growing and growing.
So so that that is something that we shouldn't be
surprised by. But I think it's something too that gives
you some some peace about all that is happening for

(28:22):
good in this too. So so anyway, that's just an
update because that happened yesterday.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
And real quick, a bomb squad was called out to
the Turning Point USA's headquarters. Of course, there's a vicious
bag that was left outside the organization's headquarters there, and
you know there's there's heightened security because of his funeral
coming up on Sunday at State Farm. Is it arena

(28:49):
or is it stadium or what is it? It's the
State Farms. It's one of the cardinals, right right right,
So anyway, so that is going to Sunday and so
but yeah, that and they didn't say what was in it. Uh,
they just said a bomb squad and a robot little
thing was went to it and got it, uh and

(29:10):
they took it off. But sadly someone left that outside
the front of their headquarters.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
Well, and that's not surprising because you have to remember don't.
And we've talked about this at length, and we're not
going to spend a lot of time on it today,
but because I know some of you are like, man,
let's just let's get a break today, let's laugh today.
And we've been doing that so far and we will
continue to do that, but some of these updates. But
you remember this element that's important. You know, there there's

(29:37):
there's things out there that are political disagreements, and they're
over here. Okay, what you're seeing right now is not
political disagreements. You're you're seeing good versus evil. You're seeing
godly versus ungodly. It's one thing to disagree.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
With with someone.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
It is quite another to be willing to kill them.
That's complete. That's that's quite another element. And that gets
into good versus evil, not ideology versus ideology, and so
and so you can't, as we've been saying, so you
can't really go against that kind of stuff saying maybe

(30:19):
I can reason this out with you. You know, we've
been kidding around this year saying we will no longer
try to reason with unreasonable people.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
The only way that you can.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Deal with evil is to by overshadow it with light
and with spiritual weapons and law and order. Of course
you have that, and that's the right at Romans thirteen.
You do have the earthly representatives of law and order
that you want to use them to But this, let's
just sit down and see if we can have a conversation. Well,

(30:51):
we've always had that option before us, and that's exactly
what Charlie Kirk was doing, and look what happened. Yeah,
it's it's a shame the world is that way, but
it's the way the world actually is, not always how
we wished it would be. So so anyway, so you've
got to do what you got to do. So don't
don't be surprised by that. But as we've said, the

(31:14):
only hope to push back this kind of darkness, it's
the church.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's the other stuff can be band aids, but.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
You need to we need to be concentrating about going
out and bringing people to redemption in Christ, because that's
all that can transform evil people.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Nothing else can.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Top of the hour, you know, sometimes when you're doing
we do for a living, you know, and we've been
at this a long time. I've been doing it a
little over forty years the guys all in similar places.
The least anyone's been doing this here is what about

(31:58):
seventeen eighteen years. When you're doing this for a living,
You've got a lot of got you need a lot
of content. It's one of the reasons I'm wearing the
shirt today. It's a help to show and you have
you have a lot of content, and you got a
lot of time to feel. And there's certain times throughout
that run where society would just give you a gift.
Our gift has been Charlie Sheen.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
And he's back.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
We've got him again.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
It was a great run ten years ago.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
I remember starting out, you know, kind of still young
in the business. What a gift Bill Clinton was. Yeah,
And so today both of those gifts come together. Yeah,
you know, it's it is you know the Remember Bill
Clinton provided so much material. Charlie and Charlie Sheen provided
so much materia. And today they stand together, Uh, Charlie Sheen.
For some reason, we're back.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
We're all in love with Charlie Sheen again, and we
can't get enough of him.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
And and he's got a book coming out and he's
promoting it and I'm serious, I got I heard an
interview with me. He's funny making fun of hisself on
how ridiculous he was acting. Yeah, he's like, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (32:58):
What that was.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
Greg pointed out yesterday his new bit is making fun
of himself.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yes, how ridiculous that tour he did and he really
didn't know what it was.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
The Jesse Waters interview we played with hilarious. That's what
he's doing.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
So, by the way, text nation Rick Shirt just sent
me a heart emoji.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Are y'are on fire to that?

Speaker 2 (33:18):
That's good, You're absolutely on fire.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Well. In the many interviews that Charlie Sheen is doing now,
he claimed that the player of players, I mean, hey,
let me see. Yeah that girlfriend you got there, Charlie,
she looks good. Yes, he does.

Speaker 9 (33:37):
So.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
Charlie Sheen claims that the player of players, the world's
biggest player, Billy c oh Yeah hit him his girlfriend
in the eighties. In the book of Sheen, Greg, you
mentioned it Rick the sixty year old actor, So wow, Charlie.
Now Sam ah recalled meeting the seventy nine year old

(33:58):
politician who was then the governor of Arkansas while Sheen
was filming Greg the nineteen eighty seven movie Three for
the road. I'm not familiar with that. I'm familiar with
that one. Anybody familiar with this one? It was in
the state capitol of Little Rock, okay. She Sheen wrote
that he and co stars Alan Ruck and Carrie Green

(34:18):
were part of a small group from the film who
were invited to the governor's mansion for a photo op.
At that time, Charlie Sheen was dating actress Dolly Fox.
Must not Dolly did not go on to win an oscar.
I don't. I don't know who Dolly Fox Isbody remember
Dolly Fox?

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Now?

Speaker 1 (34:39):
I don't. So, I don't know who Dolly Fox is?

Speaker 7 (34:43):
Oh, Alan Ruck is the other guy from Ferris Bueller.

Speaker 9 (34:49):
It is?

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Yeah, yeah, the Cameron Cameron.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Yeah, Okay, Who's Who's Dolly Fox? Let me be careful, gool,
be careful, Dolly Fox. I don't know there's anything there.
Sound dangerous, sounds like that, It sounds it sounds like
stage two.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Okay, So I don't, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Do let's put your hands together for donifi table three.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
I shouldn't say that. She may be a nun now
or something.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
He got her a nun and he's got her on
the table three.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
I heard in his interview he was talking about how
the press got and remember we had those two girls
that lived with him. Yeah, the goddesses. He goes, you
know they come, wasn't right? I mean they said they
were adult film stars. He goes, Now one of them
was an adult, he.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Said, but the other one was, well, who is who
is there?

Speaker 9 (35:33):
There?

Speaker 10 (35:34):
She is?

Speaker 2 (35:36):
She's Clinton. You know he had no call factor.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Well, yeah, Greg, so it's a saddler doing on the thing.
So Charlie Sheen says, Charlie Sheen says, my girlfriend Dolly
Fox joined us. It was pretty surreal as Governor Clinton
gave me a pair of red and white razorbacked shoes.
All right, okay, and and said, uh they were, you know,

(36:00):
supposed to be bizarre, and they were after the mascot
of Arkansas.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
He said, I remember that, which is the hog?

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Of course, he said, I was. He said, I was
answering reporters question when ruck the other co star better
on his Cameron from Ferris Bueler's Day Off, overheard Clinton
whisper to one of his age find out what you
can about the brunette. The brunette was my girlfriend, Dolly,
and to this day Alan Ruck swears that was the

(36:30):
exact quote that he heard. I felt bad for Dolly
to be objected, objectified, Charlie, Charlie, you cannot speak on
objectifying women, I mean about but then he becomes Charlie
Sheen on the next comment. Feel bad about that, But

(36:51):
deep down the fact that Bill Clinton was hitting on
a girlfriend make me feel pretty good.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
You can find out about everything out there.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Reckon how many times he gave that command?

Speaker 2 (37:05):
No you do you remember the time? Do you remember
the time?

Speaker 1 (37:07):
The secret service person? And they'll never tell, But do
you remember when he gave us this comment?

Speaker 2 (37:12):
Y'all don't know.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
I mean, everything you think you know about Clinton, his
player ways would only be skimming the surface he's And
they just left it at that. And can you imagine
having to having to corral Billy.

Speaker 3 (37:29):
So I'm kind of mad at myself. I hadn't watched
that Charlie Sheen was it on Netflix? We talked about
that documentary. I'm mad, I hadn't watched it neither. And
I'm going to yeah, which one the one about the
new one out about him?

Speaker 2 (37:44):
From No No Charlie.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
So so that is he said, that's a memory that
he has, and he said, so I'm on the list,
But can I be dishonest with your sheen? Don't feel special.
I mean everybody who ever met Bill Clinton with an
attractive girlfriend or wife, he hit on them. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
Your in y'all's opinion. If there was a mount rushmore
of like players, like the ultimate players, who would Bill
Clinton would be on them?

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Bill Clinton, He's he's definitely Should we do a mount
rush of the players, the greatest players, celebrity players? Yeah, yeah,
celebrity because some of us knew something that nobody knows
and they and let's not let's nott them out. The
thing that's so surprising about players, I mean, a true
player that should be in this on this mount rushmore

(38:40):
surprisingly low coll factor. Yeah, you ever noticed that they
You would think that they don't seem to have.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
A much Clinton Clinton situation. Yeah, you look at the
scorecard of his.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah, I've said many times I did better than Bill
Clinton is just captain of the high school football t
I mean, I mean if Governor and President John Doggles,
I mean, i mean, come on, you can do better
than Bert. Would Burt Rentals be considered a player? Probably
probably so it's Charlie Sheen's. I mean, I mean he's

(39:17):
he's talking about it, but I mean, hey, listen the
things and what's funny is he I mean, he's is
not condoning any of it. He's as ridiculous. And it
was because he was addicted to drugs, right, and he's been,
according to him, clean for like eight years. You hear
things about the Kennedy's.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
I mean, but you hit it the kennedy We may
take up the whole mountain with just them.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
Yeah, that's a good point. They went out in society
and they hit on everybody there was. But now we'll
say they're Cole factor not as low.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
That's true. Marilyn Monroe, that's you know what, it's wrong,
but it's crazy wrong.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
But I'm gonna get it. But Brily Monroe, I mean,
if you're gonna, if you're gonna turn your world up down,
have have all you buddies at least go Well, now, yeah,
that's it. Shouldn't have done it. But but you know,
the the Kennedys. Now maybe I'm wrong, maybe people who
know them saying now they were the same way. They
didn't have a call factor. It felt like theirs was

(40:14):
a little higher. Oh yeah, but but they're you know,
they almost put them under the Hey, they're dangerous players.
Yeah right, yeah, they seem to be dangerous.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (40:24):
You know they did stay at cars and bridge bridges.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
Yeah, they tended to overreact if you were gonna tell
on them.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
Yeah, that's right. We'll be right back.

Speaker 10 (40:37):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Let's talk a little bit about the culture.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Not a lot of fun talk about the culture right now,

a lot of battles. Well, why don't we go and

I had a conversation with Ryan Greenwood yesterday day. I

(42:00):
did not bring up the Dolphins on purpose. Now, the
Bills are a great football team, but the Dolphins. Since
I was in bed by six forty five last night,
I didn't see it. It looks like it, you know,
it was thirty one twenty one. It wouldn't crazy ugly.
I know that tongue of Aloa has struggled. Saw some

(42:23):
of those highlights.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
What about the coach one that looks like he's like sixteen,
you know, and any sprints across the field?

Speaker 1 (42:30):
Oh, the head coaching right when I see him. When
I see him, I would ask him, could I speak
to the coach I.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
Know exactly right. You know, is your is your dad here?

Speaker 4 (42:39):
Right?

Speaker 1 (42:40):
He looks like and he's like a front office gay.
Well and let's okay, let's let's admit this just just
human nature. If you're winning ball games, a coach like
that is kind of cool to you, it is. But
if you're losing, he becomes really annoying.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
Yes, yes, then you're looking for Bill Belichick.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
Everybody agree with that. You know, there's certain people that
you can pretty much tolerate in any condition. But then
there's those people that if you're winning, only they don't
bother you. Yes, if you're losing, they somehow, somehow it
reflects bat somehow.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
You you blame them for it.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
I'm not saying you should. No, you know, hey, look
at our young coach. Man, he's a he's ahead of
his time. Man, we got a brilliant coach. Was that
stupid kid coaching our teams? Coach? It goes quick, Yeah,
it turns quick. But from what I've seen, I've only
seen highlights of dolphin games. I haven't seen any Yes, yes,
that's the word I was thinking.

Speaker 3 (43:33):
They looked a little bit of disorganized.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
Yeah, it looks like somebody like they're waiting on somebody
to show up. Yeah, and so I play.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
He's not there yet, right, Yeah, I mean that going
into Buffalo and winning, we got the tough.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
No, that is very tough.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
But I mean it's just not good.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
My comments are not on last night's game because I
haven't even seen the highlight. My comment on the other
games I've seen. Yeah, I was it ugly last night.
I mean I lost by ten. I mean, but did
they look ugly?

Speaker 3 (44:00):
I mean early on it was a little bit of
back and forth. That's all I saw because I didn't
get to sit down and watch it. It was just
on because it was that Amazon Prime game. Greg refuses
to watch. But you know, you brought up Bill Belichick.
Have y'all heard about his little college girlfriend h that
she was She was being approached about being on with

(44:22):
Dancing Dancing with the Stars, but her demands were so
great they turned it down.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Did not know that? Yeah, so she was.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
I do know that Bill Clinton asked one of his
handlers to find out more about her.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
But because now to get me in touch with Belichick's
little girl there, Yeah, so she turned down Dancing with
the Stars. She read this.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Story, the story that that OutKick had is that they
they were in talks with me bringing her own and
the demands for her were so so great that they
just like.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
I thought it was that. I wish they didn't think
they could pull off doing what they needed to do
on the production schedule since she had to be in bed.

Speaker 2 (45:02):
That's true, and she had tons of homework.

Speaker 7 (45:05):
Yeah, so labor laws, all right, problems.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Let's unpack this a minute. Are we just acting like
Corey Feldman's not on there?

Speaker 1 (45:13):
He is, and he's as bizarre as ever.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
What I don't understand Corey Felman.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
I think he thinks he's in a band and tours,
I know, And I think he thinks he's good. Oh yeah,
rick he's getting I love and there's footage he's like
a white Michael Jackson because he pretends he does that.
But what's funny is when something will go wrong and
he turns around and blamed his band starts hollering at him.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
There's so much.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
He doesn't it's never him, it's always next.

Speaker 9 (45:41):
And I know he is.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
He doesn't seem to be very good.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
No, Ricky's not good.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
He also gets the guitar and ass like he's I
mean it's just right. I've seen some of that footage.
You know, we interviewed him back on Rick and Bubba
when he first tried to do a band thing, remember.

Speaker 6 (45:58):
That, Yes I did.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
We actually had a liner from him. What if what
if Corey Feldman, what if him and Charlie Sheen were
on the same ticket and they were just telling all
their life stories.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
Oh boy, did he just dog the drummer?

Speaker 1 (46:10):
Did he do the drummer?

Speaker 2 (46:11):
I've seen him get he gets mad at.

Speaker 1 (46:12):
The keyboard, playing with he's wearing that, Yes, Simmons called
Watters the jumpsuit. But let me ask you this. I've
watched the way he performs in Doctor's Band and all that.
It feels a little James conn up.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
It does, I mean much hipper when he looked at
that much much Hipper.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
But but it feels a little.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
And now, did anybody follow this show Dance with the Stars?

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Is he dancing?

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Oh yeah, he can do.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
That's years ago when it had that would might ask
Youdler to stop playing.

Speaker 7 (46:43):
I can watch this. I could watch this on a
loop for the rest of my life.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
And you know you love Corey Feldman.

Speaker 8 (46:49):
Highsh Corey Felderman is so bad it's amazing. I can't
stop watching. Get It Geiny, So I can't watch.

Speaker 3 (46:58):
I'm not like, where was this song again?

Speaker 7 (47:03):
That was from the Today Show?

Speaker 1 (47:06):
Okay? Is he making money somehow?

Speaker 7 (47:09):
I don't think So.

Speaker 6 (47:11):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 9 (47:19):
You know.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
And I appreciate the emailer here, you know, understanding that
this is not something we do a lot, but it's special.
We wish, we wish we could do everybody's birthday shout outs,
but we can't. And he said, this one I really
has so much connection. This is a I don't know
if he wants me to say his name, I'll just
say happy birthday. This weekend, it'll be Sunday. Aiden Taylor

(47:44):
is going to turn sixteen on Sunday. And he said, Rick,
you might remember when you visited First Baptist Defuniac Springs
in Florida with Wingo. I was, I was lost and
told you the story how your son Bronner's earthly death

(48:05):
was used to save my life. And so my wife
and I both started back to church. We were baptized,
We longed for a child. Three months later we found
out that we were going to have a child. And
then when you came to Depheniate Springs. Last year he
stood up and made a decision to follow Christ. So
both his redemption and ours tied to the show and

(48:26):
the platform and all the stuff you guys have done.
And he has been devout in his faith and has
not looked back. So and he talks about how he's doing,
and he said, I honestly believe I would not be
writing this email had it not been for your son Bronner.
So birds, can you please give us sixteenth birthday shout
out to Aidan Taylor? You better believe it. He loves you, guys,
loves the show. And he says, tell Adler Adas, see

(48:49):
if you remember this that Aiden was the big seven
year old.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
From the Outdoor Expo Daily documentary.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
Nice do you remember that?

Speaker 9 (48:57):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (48:57):
Yes, we go?

Speaker 7 (48:58):

Speaker 1 (49:03):
So that's him too, So he's sixteen. Now how about that?

Speaker 2 (49:06):
I will be will be on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (49:07):
So how about that? That's special? So yeah, I wish
we could do all of them, but I appreciate you
letting us know about that. What what that's so encouraging?
It really is. So I was gonna ask you guys
about something else that we have today too. I know,
you know, these are things that we don't do a lot,

(49:28):
but sometimes they they garner good conversations. America's five best
fast food cheeseburgers. Now have we not done this before?
It seems this come around.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
I don't know, it seems like that yesterday was National
Cheeseburger Day.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
Now we're talking I'm not talking good restaurants. We're talking
fast food, fast food.

Speaker 1 (49:49):
And I really do not eat a lot of fast
food burgers at all anymore, but I will, but I will.
But it was interesting as I as I told you guys,
is everything we're doing now, you know, we're you gotta
you gotta, you gotta work harder than ever now. And
if you don't have that kind of go, you can't
make it in our industry anymore. You just can't. And

(50:11):
and so yesterday was a long, long day. And I
mean by the time we eat lunch, we've already been
going for nine hours. Yeah, okay, And so what I mean,
that's that's part of its big Yeah, you know what
what you're gonna do tell somebody that's trying to meet
with you about important things. I'm sorry, you know, I've
been up since nine So Yesterday was one of those

(50:31):
days I was gonna have to grab something to eat
lunch wise on the run.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
It was gonna have to be on the run.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
And I remember you mentioning that speedy about some kind
of cheeseburger day or something. Now, this is gonna feel
odd to you. I haven't even looked at this. The
top five has nothing to do with the top five.
But it's just interesting that we have this story today
and that was yesterday because what happened. And if you
ever just said, all right, I'm gonna try to everything
I need to do today, I'm gonna try to make

(50:57):
my meal fit into that. So I'm not gonna just
go eat or get anything I want. I'm gonna try
to find a way to eat what's available in the
area of where I'm operating. It's got to be part
of it, am I. Yeah, I can't make some special
trip for this whatever. And it was gonna take too
long to door dash, you know, I thought, by the time,

(51:18):
now I've waited too late, and so you'll get it. Yeah,
So I look up and I see Freddy's.

Speaker 10 (51:25):
There.

Freddie's till like five years ago when they built one
in Bell City. I had no idea what it was,
so I didn't know. So I just got in line
and I just thought I'd go with the Freddy. Uh,
and you get simple, have you ever been somewhere? You've
never been there before? And then they say this, so
you want everything on it?

Speaker 2 (51:48):
And I was like, well, what is it? I don't
know what everything is?

Speaker 1 (51:51):
Everything? I just say yes, And uh, I didn't know
that the Freddy was a double. Uh, it's got it's

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
All right. The reason why it helped me, I could
be wrong because you all know I'm a little low tech.
I've gotten better. I mean, you know, Adler still can't
quite get me to remember how to you know, put
a link up. You just have to click. But it's fine,
and you've shown me. But I need to write it down.
I need to write it down. But it's it's it's
more steps than I wanted. But and some of those

(01:02:13):
little quickly things. I can think my thumb's too big
or something. But anyway, so I work it my way,
but I can always I'm open to change sort of
how I can't believe it would be bad Wi Fi connection,
because it seems like that would be. I guess before
we go any further, do we have the speed we need?

(01:02:34):
You think to show the metaglasses off or to do
whatever the other thing is he's trying to do. It
can't we can't be at the Facebook gathering of our
new things meta this meta that it seems like the
Wi Fi connection would be the very first thing you
deal with in the rooming or where the people are, right.

Speaker 7 (01:02:56):
I don't think it was the Wi Fi.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
Guys, No, I don't either.

Speaker 2 (01:02:59):
Look there, don't you think that that can't be the problem.

Speaker 3 (01:03:03):
There's comedians that wish they were getting to laugh. He
was getting on stage because everybody thought it was so funny.
Uh rick. They're the new AI powered glasses that are
supposed to be paired with a like a neural wristband
or or something. And and so this was the big
reveal for from metas, as Adler said, and it was
just a miss.

Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
It was humiliating. All we have to watch this.

Speaker 7 (01:03:24):
Because he's wearing the glasses.

Speaker 8 (01:03:29):
It's the same audio speed he just played, but it's
worse because he's wearing the glasses.

Speaker 3 (01:03:33):
And if not, then we'll go for the less option. Okay,
he's so red I don't know what to tell you.
Don't miss his glasses, yeah, I mean those are those
are the glasses.

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
But they're pretty thick.

Speaker 12 (01:03:49):
Come out here and we're just going to go to
the next thing.

Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
Who got who got fired?

Speaker 1 (01:03:54):
Meda glasses couldn't make a meal? Medaw glasses couldn't make
a call.

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Uh, it did not go.

Speaker 2 (01:04:01):
And they look goofy. So there's a you better be
spot on.

Speaker 1 (01:04:05):
If you look like that. Okay, So you you would
like the glasses to be a little hipper.

Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
Yeah, these are gogglee.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
Sick. Yeah, you getting picked on if you walk up
with them.

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
So I've got goggle lot and they don't work. They
don't work right now. If I got goggle line, I'm
owning it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:04:20):
Maybe looking at this, a lot of two things happened.
The people behind the scenes, behind the curtain sort to speak.
Either he wasn't listening to them when he gave when
they gave him, Hey, did do it just like this? Yeah,
and they're back there sweating because he's like, didn't listen
to him. Or they just fumbled the whole thing and

(01:04:40):
it didn't work. Somebody surely got fired of.

Speaker 1 (01:04:43):
Somebody checked somebody. Somebody had a terrible meeting. Terrible meeting. Uh,
let's continue usough.

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
It was playing little silly music that ain't made it better.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
Okay, okay, okay, since you've already mixed that together, I
haven't mintioned together. Let's go back. Must be wi Fi
Zuckerberg THREEB. Zuckerberg is on with Joe Rogan. He also
is going to just tell straight up, yes, I was
contacted by the Biden administration and told to block things

(01:05:18):
and take things down that were negative about the VACS.

Speaker 9 (01:05:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:05:22):
And this is a flashback to when Zuckerberg was on
Rogan and we've heard this huge outcry with Jimmy Kilmel
being placed on indefinite suspension. We've heard this outcry saying no, no, no,
the government shouldn't be pressuring these companies. Free speech is
a violation of free speech and all that. Yesterday we
argued on the show that this was a business decision

(01:05:44):
by the people that own ABC, because Kimmel is hurting business.
This was not a free speech issue. People have emailed
us saying no, the FCC chairman pressured them. I would
argue because I honestly had not seen the FCC chairman's
statements yesterday when we were talking talking about this on
the show. Y'all read them. The FCC chairman just read

(01:06:04):
the rules of how ABC has to operate. Because it
is a public broadcast channel. It's not like cable, it's
not like having a YouTube show. The different rules apply.
So I would argue that that wasn't pressure from the government. This, however,
is pressure. Zuckerberg on Rogan talking about the Biden administration
pressuring Facebook.

Speaker 12 (01:06:24):
They pushed us super hard to take down things that
we're honestly were true, right. I mean, they basically pushed
us and said, you know, anything that says that vaccines
might have side effects you basically need to take down.
And I was just like, we're not going to do that.

(01:06:45):
We're clearly not going to do that. I mean that
that is kind of inarguably.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
The who's telling you to take down things? Yeah, it was.
It was to talk about vaccine side effects.

Speaker 12 (01:06:55):
It was people in the in the Biden administration. I
think these people from the Biden administration would call up
our team and like scream at them and curse, and
it's like, yeah, so that's different.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
Yeah, that's government pressure.

Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
So we'll come back and we've even got some other
clips to kind of unpack a sign with you.

Speaker 1 (01:07:12):
Ada. I heard that start yesterday, and I think we
need to get some clarity the the FCC clarifying the
difference between broadcast stations and you know, satellite streaming even
cable to a degree.

Speaker 9 (01:07:30):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
That's not pressuring anyone to do anything, that's just clarifying
that they can.

Speaker 6 (01:07:34):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:07:42):
Too strong arm ABC uh into getting rid of Jimmy Kimmel.
First of all, let's go back in time. Uh, let's
go back in time.

Speaker 14 (01:07:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:07:51):
Let's go to three D well three c Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:55):
Let's hear Chuck Schumer uh calling for Tucker carl And
to be removed from the airwaves, which eventually he was.
But here is a senator calling for someone to be removed,
and he explains why he wants him off the air.

Speaker 11 (01:08:10):
Here we go Rupert Murdoch, who was admitted they were
lies and said he regretted it has a special obligation
to stop Tucker Carlson from going on tonight now that
he's seen how he is perverted and slimed the truth,
and from letting him go on again and again and again.

(01:08:32):
Not because their views deserve such approprium, but because our
democracy depends on it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:39):
Don't not sure how Tucker Carlson expressing his views is
going after our democracy, which is a constitutional republic.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Of course'ted.

Speaker 1 (01:08:47):
Yeah, so there's Schumer saying, Hey, I'm calling on Fox
to take him off. Now, let's go to Jimmy Kimmel,
who's celebrated in twenty twenty three Tucker Carlson getting fired
from Fox. Here's Jimmy Kimmel having some fun with this.
Fox News has severed bow ties with Tucker Carlson after
all these years. They are partying ways, which means he

(01:09:09):
was fired. I mean, that's really what partying ways means.
Tucker couldn't be reached for comment. He's already on a
plane to Moscow to meet with his manager. But what
a shock. I mean, what an absolutely delightful shock. There
you go, a delightful shock. Again. Fox had every right
to fire Tucker Carlson, no matter what Chuck Schumer said,

(01:09:33):
no matter what's Jimmy Kimmel celebrated. Fox News a private
entity who had a contract with Tucker Carlson. They have
every right to remove Tucker Carlson if they no longer
want to employ him, as long as they do it
within the contract. But they decide whether he goes on
there or not. Not the government So here's Rob Schnyder

(01:09:55):
talking about Jimmy Kimmel's suspension and trying to once again
explain what, by all accounts, seems to be the only
thing the FCC chairman was doing is explaining to the
public the difference in broadcast stations which are under the FCC,
but streaming services, cable, satellite, they're not.

Speaker 7 (01:10:18):
So here it is so what you have here is
you have capitalist pressure.

Speaker 15 (01:10:24):
Capitalist pressure is really important because what happens is you
have to make money or you have to do something
of value so that you can get something in return. Now,
the interesting thing is it's false advertising, because honestly, I mean, look,
Jimmy Kimmel can be funny, and I don't mean to
take anything away from that, but the fact.

Speaker 11 (01:10:44):
Of the matter, can you remember a political joke that
went viral?

Speaker 7 (01:10:47):
What was something really funny of his?

Speaker 15 (01:10:49):
There was no attempt in humor at all on what
he said, and as a matter of fact, it was
a lie. Now, as you pointed to Will, since the
nineteen sixties, you have to get a license to broadcast.
This isn't Netflix, this isn't cable, this is broadcast TV.

Speaker 7 (01:11:04):
And when you have broadcast TV, you have to.

Speaker 15 (01:11:07):
The airwaves are owned by the public, and to get
that license, you have to be in the interest, like
you said, of the public. And so that's why when
there's a news van parked in the white zone, they
don't get a ticket because they are there to present news,
to inform the public in the public interest. So what
happens is twenty five percent originally was supposed to be

(01:11:27):
the news to inform it just to get that license.
So when you absolutely lie to the public, then you
are no longer in the public interest.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
There you go in that crazy because is it next
Star In their press release about letting saying that hey,
we're not going to broadcast the show anymore, they said,
we feel like it's not in public in the public
interest to have to have his comments because.

Speaker 1 (01:11:53):
There are broadcasts. There are munch of broadcast stations that
are under the FCC, but we have so many platforms.
Now everybody thinks that was one of the things when
satellite radio started, everybody was like, that's why Howard Stern
was able to say whatever you wanted to say, and
it kind of lost its edginess because you know, how
many times can you cuss?

Speaker 9 (01:12:12):
You know?

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
And now when you're allowed to cuss. It's not edgy anymore.
But FCC doesn't control satellite radio. The FCC doesn't control
streaming services. They remember, that's one of the things everybody
kept saying, we got to get some kind of regulation
on all this streaming because it doesn't have any regulation.
But the broadcast world of radio and TV, we're still
under the FCC. And Jimmy Kimmel worked for a broadcast

(01:12:36):
network and their affiliates, I think it was next Star
and Sinclair both yes said we're not going to We're
we're going to preempt this show. Now. I do think
there's some irony because one thing that the left was
really really good at is they knew that situation. So
they tried to get the people who pay you to

(01:12:57):
make a business decision. So they would pressure the sponsors.
You know, they were the masters of that. If they
didn't like what they heard, we've had happen here back
in the Rickingbubba days that happened here and where they
would pressure the advertisers. You shouldn't advertise with this show
because they said this. So it wasn't the FCC that

(01:13:18):
got rid that would pressure you. You'd be called into
meetings to the people who don't like that pressure on
the sponsors. And so this is what happened to Jimmy Kimmel.
They've got piles of affiliates that went to ABC and Disney.
I don't think Disney would have gotten rid of him,
but they got pressured by their affiliates. Well, the FCC
did have anything to do with that. Now, the FCC

(01:13:39):
chairman did say remind the public because of him being fired.
Jimmy Kimmel works for broadcast. That's different and so and
it never ever is a violation of someone's First Amendment
right for a private company to say, you're killing us
on ratings and revenue and we don't even we might

(01:14:02):
even agree with what you said, but you're killing us.
It's a business decision.

Speaker 16 (01:14:06):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:14:07):
And they got pressured and that's why he was fired.
That's why Stephen Colbert was fired. That's why Tucker Carlson
was fired when from Fox. I mean, that's not an
FCC thing, but they were getting grief and didn't feel
like that. They never I mean, Murdock had every rock
to fire Tucker Cross, but the FCC.

Speaker 2 (01:14:26):
Didn't get rid of him. The government didn't get rid
of him.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
The government might have gone on to their bully pulpit
and wanted to pressure Fox to do it, but ultimately
it's Fox's decision, not the governments.

Speaker 7 (01:14:38):
Isn't it funny that the people.

Speaker 8 (01:14:42):
Let me be careful how I say this, but the
people that honestly were upset that some people got fired
for celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder and assassination.

Speaker 7 (01:14:52):
They were also upset that people got fired.

Speaker 8 (01:14:54):
They celebrated Charlie Kirk being killed for voicing his opinion,
but they weren't okay with people being fired. Two different things,
just like, uh, this is this is just like this
is not a freedom of speech issue with Jimmy Kimmel.

Speaker 7 (01:15:09):
Like people are conflating these things.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Tucker Carlson is still giving his opinion, yes, and may
have more influence than he had when he was limited
to Fox News. Yeah, uh so Jimmy Kimmel can do
the same thing.

Speaker 8 (01:15:23):
All of a sudden, these lefties are for free speech,
calling this a free speech violation when they know that's
not the case. In fact, during the breaks, I'll play
I'll play a two minute montage of them calling for
people to be silenced in deplatform or.

Speaker 1 (01:15:35):
Yeah, a being so hypocritical on this, We'll be right
back to stay ho.

Speaker 6 (01:15:38):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 8 (01:15:42):
You shouldn't be banned from one platform and not others
if you afford uh providing misinformation out there.

Speaker 5 (01:15:50):
There's no guaranteed of free speech on misinformation or or
hate speech, and especially around our democracy.

Speaker 14 (01:15:55):
There are Americans who are engaged in this kind of
propaganda and whether they should be civilly or even in
some cases criminally charged is something that would be a
better deterrent.

Speaker 9 (01:16:11):
If people go to only one source and the source
they go to is sick and you know, as an agenda,
and they're putting out disinformation. Our First Amendment stands as
a major block. It's really hard to govern today.

Speaker 7 (01:16:26):
This is a matter of corporate responsibility.

Speaker 8 (01:16:28):
Twitter should be held accountable and shut down that site.
It is a matter of safety and corporate accountability.

Speaker 3 (01:16:34):
The First Amendment is not absolute.

Speaker 4 (01:16:37):
It does not protect any single thing anyone says, and
there are limits and that's important. And what this committee
has been trying to do for the last year and
a half is to chill the federal government from monitoring
what is going on on social media.

Speaker 10 (01:16:53):
When you look at what Tucker Carlson and some of
these other folks on Fox do, it is very very
very clearly incitement of violence, very clearly incitement of violence.
I believe that when it comes to broadcast television like
Fox News, these are subject to to federal law, federal

(01:17:14):
regulation in terms of what's allowed on air and what isn't.
My biggest concern is that your view has the First
Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways.

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
It's not for right again. We're great, it's time for
right again. It's dome for right again. Who's going to go?

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
Come on, everybody?

Speaker 15 (01:17:45):
Yes, you.

Speaker 1 (01:17:47):
Right again?

Speaker 2 (01:17:49):
Call us if you want to play with it's nuts.

Speaker 1 (01:17:51):
You're never wrong. I just don't remember when there we go,
you right again, right again? Said, Day's topic is one
that boy Greg is solid on. It's music, little known
musical facts. Now Greg, I will say this today. We're
blessed to have Speedy here.

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
Oh yeah, he can be your lifeline if you want.

Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
To us line Speedy. You can't talk about Casey case yes,
and she writes, dear Speedy, all right, let me the
audience again.

Speaker 9 (01:18:29):
One.

Speaker 1 (01:18:29):
This is how the game's played. You can't just say
Greg's right about everything, because I'm I pretty much am normally,
Yes you are. But if I don't know it, I
may sound confident, or I may sound like I don't
know it, but I do know it. You got to
figure out am I putting on? Am I really struggling
with it? Or am I overly confident? Does it?

Speaker 2 (01:18:46):
So that really doesn't matter. So you play. You may
play a game within the game. Yeah, Like if I say,
when I really don't know, I'll go throw something out confident.

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
I may I may be, I may not be. But
they just think to themselves.

Speaker 2 (01:18:57):
He mostly he's right.

Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
Yeah, but you a little curve.

Speaker 2 (01:19:00):
But it's a game.

Speaker 7 (01:19:02):
A game.

Speaker 1 (01:19:02):
You gotta get.

Speaker 2 (01:19:03):
Three know them all. But although I probably will, you
gotta get igin.

Speaker 1 (01:19:08):
That's just what it was. You got to get three
right in a row. If you do, you go to
the wheel right again. Okay, but you got to get
three right in a row.

Speaker 6 (01:19:15):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:19:16):
So let's start with Mike. Mike from Huntsville one hundred
point three the River. Mike, are you you think you
can match Greg three times for right again? Here we go, Greg.

Speaker 2 (01:19:28):
Question one Foreigner's only number one hit was, of course,
I want.

Speaker 4 (01:19:32):
To know.

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
That's not the question. I want you to know.

Speaker 3 (01:19:37):
I've seen Foreigner.

Speaker 2 (01:19:38):
That was the easy one. I have to so speedy Greg,
let's go to let's go to Greg. So what was
the second most high ranking song?

Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
It went to number two?

Speaker 3 (01:19:48):
In my world, I.

Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
Would have said hot Blooded, But I don't think that's
right because that's just on my level of how I
liked them. H I think I'm right here because I'm
surprising a little bit because they've had a lot, and
this one I think I think it's double vision. Mike
is Greg right? Again?

Speaker 3 (01:20:08):
Feeling dum.

Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
No, he is wrong? Now, I'm sorry he is. He's right.

Speaker 2 (01:20:13):
I said, I know a lot about Foreigner.

Speaker 1 (01:20:15):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 3 (01:20:17):
Why would you go against him?

Speaker 2 (01:20:18):
Well, I mean, I'm wrong sometimes, but not not when
it comes to Foreigner.

Speaker 1 (01:20:22):
Double vision number two it was the second highest rand.
Here's Hunter and I like that song a lot. It's
wine Now Hunter out Alabama. How you doing, buddy, I'm
wellre you go?

Speaker 2 (01:20:34):
Do you think you match Greg three right against?

I think I can question who replaced original lead vocalist
Steve Walsh in nineteen eighty two in the band Kansas
Oh Reck. That's hard. I remember when Steve wats got replaced.
First of all, Love Kansas one of my favorite bands,
and you need to get the video them doing People
to the South Wind Live. It's just awesome. All right,

(01:20:57):
you can google it. Steve Washton. Now correct if I'm
Roman and we did a story on this. I believe
I think that the guy he became a Christian singer
after foreigner. Okay, now his name after foreigner, Uh, not foreigner,
I'm sorry, Kansas. His name was, uh, that's quit tell
John h Ellis, John Ellis.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):

one Foreigner hit Urgent.

looking at that shirt, going, man, I wish I had that. Yeah,

Speaker 3 (01:27:44):
And a straw hat instead of flowers, how about just
your face where the flowers are?

Speaker 1 (01:27:49):
Yes, Oh yeah, that's all it is, is a flowers thought.
I thought it was line's faces. By the way, over
the weekend, I forgot to tell you last weekend a

Speaker 2 (01:28:10):
Main mushrooms Really, what what for?

Speaker 6 (01:28:13):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
Because they were there? I mean you just go farmers market. Uh,
They're supposed to be some miracle something. They're supposed to
be good for your brain, right, I can't remember.

Speaker 9 (01:28:25):
Right in that.

Speaker 1 (01:28:28):
How about this? I'm not a I'm not a big
fan of mushrooms texture. I like small ones like you
eat on a steak. Yeah, I don't like that people
try to use as hamburger meat. I'll fight you over then, can't.

Speaker 7 (01:28:43):
It's not a paddy.

Speaker 1 (01:28:45):
You need to be slapped.

Speaker 7 (01:28:46):
Did you really have those records that that's just a
setup for?

Speaker 1 (01:28:49):
Is that what you have? I really did?

Speaker 2 (01:28:50):
What made you do?

Speaker 1 (01:28:53):
I just told you. We were at the farmers market
the whole time, and we go there and there's some
mush room booth and Sherry had a bunch of little mushrooms.
They were all out there and they were like, there's
that lines man. I said, I never tried that before,
And so Sherry knew I wouldn't need them. So she
know what she did?

Speaker 2 (01:29:10):
How you get a Southern man to try anything?

Speaker 1 (01:29:12):
What do you do? You fright? So she just took
the mushroom and cut it thin and you'll get it,
got in a frying pan and got it. Chrispy, I couldn't.
It didn't taste like anything to me.

Speaker 7 (01:29:21):
It's kind of like it tastes like a normal mushroom, like.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
It was the most.

Speaker 1 (01:29:28):
Meaningless moment. I mean, it didn't bring anything to the table.
I didn't after. I didn't feel good bad, I was
indifferent to it. Didn't change the thing, didn't. I had
to put it in with a meal, so I would
a little sauce on it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:40):
Yeah, steak sauce.

Speaker 1 (01:29:42):
There was nothing wrong with it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:43):
I struggled with the texture. Yeah, I can see, I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:29:46):
I don't like it. I was like, it just regular mushrooms,
even though I know it's not the same thing, and
everybody be careful mushrooms now. I know it's not the
same thing, but as it was on my plate, I
just kept picturing it on the side of some tree
while while I'm walking to my deer stand, and like,
I feel like that I shouldn't eat that. Yeah you know,

(01:30:06):
I mean, and from under the cow patty and so
would you think, yeah, to a concert or so.

Speaker 2 (01:30:12):
Those are the ones that make you mind crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
Yeah, eat I eat that. No idler tries to get
me take mushrooms all dome. Yeah yeah, I mean eat mushrooms. Yeah, yeah, right,
I'll eat that.

Speaker 7 (01:30:24):
It's but I got to have some kind of real
meat with it, like a steak or something.

Speaker 2 (01:30:27):
Yeah, that's what I'm talking That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 3 (01:30:29):
Yeah, we're not doing that.

Speaker 1 (01:30:31):
The little bitty hole ones and they put them on,
they cook them in something really good and put them
on the thing. That's pretty good.

Speaker 11 (01:30:36):
Yeah good.

Speaker 2 (01:30:37):
But I hear all this you Lines Maine, everybody just
ate lines, Lines Maine. It feels weird to me.

Speaker 3 (01:30:44):
Yeah, we've been talking a lot of food today.

Speaker 1 (01:30:46):
Are we struggling, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:30:48):
But the box seats we have so much fun for everybody.
We want to thank all of them. But we have
something that we've never had, never seen the show, and
that every chocolate covered sausage balls.

Speaker 2 (01:31:00):
I'm a little bit scared of it. I'll just be honest, responding.

Speaker 3 (01:31:03):
Uh, mister Ryan there, Ryan King out of Albertville, Alabama.

Speaker 1 (01:31:07):
So Ryan area. Somebody came to the conclusion that the
sausage ball was just not enough, It's not perfect enough.

Speaker 2 (01:31:15):
And somebody said, I'll tell you what I'm thinking.

Speaker 1 (01:31:17):
Put a little chocolate surf on.

Speaker 3 (01:31:20):
Oh there's just donut holes, yeah, with sausage in it.
So glaze sausage balls. Yeah, I'll tell you all kinds
of goodness. Well, when he comes up, we'll have to,
but apparently it's the thing.

Speaker 1 (01:31:35):
Yeah, it's something about Yeah, I knew that was a
Marshall County delight before I ever saw that's delicacy up there.

Speaker 8 (01:31:43):
And let me, can I say something about bringing food?

Speaker 2 (01:31:47):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:31:48):
Yeah, you guys.

Speaker 8 (01:31:50):
Remember when I was like, bring your chocolate chip cookies
in and I'll review them.

Speaker 3 (01:31:53):
Let me know, you know all that.

Speaker 7 (01:31:55):
Well, I had something happen.

Speaker 15 (01:31:59):
Huh.

Speaker 7 (01:32:00):
We we had some we had people in this earlier
this week and they brought in some homemade oatmeal cream pies.

Speaker 1 (01:32:09):
Oh delicious.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
You're not telling this all right, I'm not going to
tell it.

Speaker 6 (01:32:13):
Tell it, but.

Speaker 1 (01:32:15):
You're not going to tell it to that. Just tell it.

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
This was his second batch, not the first bat.

Speaker 7 (01:32:19):
This was not the lady.

Speaker 1 (01:32:21):
This is someone who tried to take that recipe and
make their own.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
You know, he always he was their own recipe. They
didn't know about the recipe.

Speaker 1 (01:32:27):
He said.

Speaker 3 (01:32:27):
He said that it was their own recipe.

Speaker 1 (01:32:29):
Okay, I thought he said he tried that.

Speaker 8 (01:32:31):
Recipe too, So that I'm not talking about the sweet
lady from last week.

Speaker 7 (01:32:38):
I'm talking about the dude from this week.

Speaker 1 (01:32:40):
Correct, You're talking about the dude who brought him not
the sweet lady.

Speaker 9 (01:32:43):
And he.

Speaker 7 (01:32:46):
Walks in here and makes a joke about tampering with
the cookie that I just ate.

Speaker 3 (01:32:54):
It was a joke. He was fun, he was just messing.

Speaker 8 (01:32:56):
I know it was a joke, but he still said it,
and it was a graphic joke. And I'm thinking about
it now in this moment. And I thought about it
then because I had just eaten the oatmeal cream.

Speaker 7 (01:33:06):
Pie that he had brought in.

Speaker 1 (01:33:07):
Was it good?

Speaker 3 (01:33:08):

Speaker 7 (01:33:09):
But now I'm thinking about was what he said? Yeah,
and I'm scarred and I can't.

Speaker 1 (01:33:13):
I don't think.

Speaker 2 (01:33:14):
I think I'm done.

Speaker 7 (01:33:16):
I think I'm done eating anybody's food that brings in.

Speaker 3 (01:33:18):
It was horrifying.

Speaker 7 (01:33:19):
Why would you say that to a person that just
made food that.

Speaker 3 (01:33:21):
You made with your hands?

Speaker 2 (01:33:24):
He did, He was shook.

Speaker 1 (01:33:25):
He came out because, by the way, I want to
make any comment on it, but I'm not going to.

Speaker 2 (01:33:30):
But I will say this, I understand how you got
in his mind.

Speaker 1 (01:33:33):
I know that's what I'm thinking of.

Speaker 7 (01:33:35):
It's been messing with my head ever since.

Speaker 1 (01:33:37):
Wow, why would he say?

Speaker 7 (01:33:38):
Why would he do that to me?

Speaker 1 (01:33:40):
Y'all messed up?

Speaker 2 (01:33:41):
Once I got to do with chocolate, covered, so.

Speaker 3 (01:33:45):

Speaker 2 (01:33:48):
It's good, it's fine, it's fine, it's all good. I've
got to try one.

those food joke.

Jacob was, I mean, he was like it was going
to be a blowout and race. Nathan jumped out. I
thought you had them way ahead. And then when you
hit the three pointers, he can be a game changer.
When it comes to three points.

Speaker 3 (01:36:54):
He sunk. I think the last three Jacob hit Janius
swimming boom and you know what, there was absolutely half
a second on the clock.

Speaker 1 (01:37:04):

electronic piece of that that started telling us because.

(01:37:40):
And now Jacob big, this big decision for you. Whatever
Nathan spinds, you can have just another way for us
to rub it in. Uh, but you can also take
a pass on what he spun and spend on your own. Now,
if you take a pass, you don't compare the two
and then go back and say I'd rather have the
other one.
