Speaker 1 (00:12):
You better listen up, you know, like we say, loss,
I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
We gotta find.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
The voice of reason in an unreasonable world. The Rick
Burchard Show.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
That's us. Maybe we're here ready to go, and we
got another show to lay out before you today. The
gang is all here, speedy, Greg and Adler and everybody
drawed back like a flute, running down the stories of
the day Wednesday Bible Study Back Today. It is the

(00:54):
second installment on our new study of job. Last week
got us off to a roaring start. We'll continue that
today noon Central at one o'clock Eastern on the Rick
Bridges Show YouTube channel. If you can't catch it live,
then catch the daily archive that will be on the

(01:16):
YouTube channel or the podcast channel. Not that long after.
He was about an hour after, sometimes even sooner, so
that'll be available to you. We got things to discuss
today that we want you to give us some feedback
on as well. Andy Andrews will join us on the
program today. Of course, New York Time bestselling author sought

(01:40):
after speaker all round, goodfella, and he has an idea
today that we will try. And he's making his way,
going to be in the studio today and it will
be a new installment with Andy Andrews that may be
reoccurring if it goes well. Okay, so he is, he'll

(02:03):
be with us coming up a little bit later on
in the program. So we want to we're going to
take a look at that also we're going to discuss
today right across America this you know, when you go
back to the thirty one years of the of the
Rick and Bubba Show, obviously we all participated in that

(02:25):
speedy and I for the me the entire run Speedy
basically the entire run, and then Adler and Greg sixteen
fifteen years of that run. So obviously anything that we
were all doing, we're continuing to do, you know, characters,
stuff that we did in the part that we contributed
to the team. But then there's other things that we're

(02:46):
you know, we we don't carry with us or heyde
has it run its course? Do we want to bring
that back? Do we want to continue to do that?
You know, some things have been upgraded a little bit,
changed a little bit, and then thing of course you're
just branding new and unique to this new endeavor. But uh,
this read across America thing, we're kind of like, you

(03:07):
know I basically, well I didn't. Basically I did read
green eggs and ham. You know, I'm still here, so
I could do that. Do we want to do that? Though?
Has that? Has that run its course? Have we have
we lost interest in that? Is that something that you
as the audience found yourself dreading more than looking forward to?

(03:28):
Was it? Was it great for for the youngsters everywhere?
And and worth the effort the teachers dig it? Or
did everybody did? Did it have its peak and then
kind of trail off? And maybe it's had its time?
You know that it's that And I'm I'm really open
to any of that. You know, I'm open to to
doing it. I'm open to saying it ran its course

(03:52):
and it's done. But we need a little feedback from
you on that.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
Yeah, And we were entertaining just either a quick poll
or a vox verdict where maybe a listener that loves
it uh and and really wants to see it continue,
or like someone that maybe doesn't. I like to have
them present their case, I like, uh, and then and
then we have a ruling on it. I know, uh,
Adler is dying to put on the wig and the

(04:17):
gall and he's the gap.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
He really does enjoy us. You know, I want to.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
I'm sorry, I do want to do it, so I
will not be an impartial judge. I'll be a partial judge. Yeah,
it's for the children. I got kids, man, you got
to think of your kids.

Speaker 6 (04:31):
Right right?

Speaker 5 (04:32):
It is it is And that's kind of where I
go with it a little bit. It's you know, it's
eight minute segment once a year, but you know, for
the kiddos and and the parents and and everybody there,
you know, it's it's great to have that. But again, if.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
Another book, I'm just ask come on, we don't mind
if we've heard that one enough. Oh well, so now
I'm now redfish, blue fish, one fish to fish.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Is that where I am do the Hobbit or something?

Speaker 4 (05:02):
The Hobbit? Great book, right, not going to get it
in eight minutes, that's true. But but yeah, you know,
and and I'm good with it. But it felt like
to me, and I'm not trying to taint the judge
even though he's alright, ad midt it. He is partial.
He's not impartial, but are the audience. But there was
a moment where it felt like it was in its

(05:23):
heyday and I think the reason why I felt that
at one time we had the ability to know to
see a little better how many classes were involved and
how many people were watching. And then we used to
have live that would come from the little Yeah, they
used to walk across the street, and then uh, and
then we had the Then we had kind of where

(05:45):
the technology moved out ahead of that, and then it
was the hey, put put us on social media that
you're watching. And I felt like at that point I
kind of lost the feel of how many people were
doing it. And then later, you know, you would get
all these pictures and stuff like that, which was fine,
you know and great, but you remember there was a
time when you knew you know, that was like, okay,

(06:06):
we got this many classes, this many kids. Well because
all the way because.

Speaker 5 (06:11):
On the website we had a form you feel right, yeah,
and it was such and such teacher, this class, this location.
So to your point, Ricky was the largest classroom in America,
and we had a list of everybody. Yeah, and it
kind of made us feel like, hey, they're out there.
Then when we asked just okay, we're going to go
from that and it's all about social media, we kind
of lost the feel lost, like are y'all still there

(06:34):
or or not? Because the response, although we had one,
was not what we anticipate.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Is we thought it might be a little bit more.
Let's just call it and.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Is it that it?

Speaker 5 (06:43):
Is it that just teachers and parents got busy and
never really sent out a picture of taged us But
they're still there?

Speaker 4 (06:49):
Right? Or or what? And really if you're if you're
a grown adult, you probably don't like it.

Speaker 5 (06:55):
But that's really let's just be it's not for you, right,
It's for the kiddos, right.

Speaker 7 (07:00):
It's like pumpkin patches.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
It's not for you. But if everybody's a man's but
it is entertaining.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
And up and listening, I mean even for the kids,
right right.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
But we don't have that sign up anymore, so we
didn't know.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, we lost the ability to know. And as you said,
when we said tag us, it didn't feel like people
wanted to participate in that.

Speaker 5 (07:19):
Yeah, yeah we had something, we would repost it and
it would be a classroom full of kids and you'd
be like, Okay, that's awesome, you know, but you just
wonder now it is I say, for an adult, it's
not for you. I hope you understand what I'm saying.
It was it's still entertaining, no matter if you're an
adult or not. Just the way you read it, Rick, Now,
you might could read it as Gary this year. Man,
change it up.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
Well if I read it, If I read it, it's Gary. Now,
we're confusing children, right, and we're terrifying children. Hey, I mean,
I just don't like Green Eggs and him bottom line.
By the way, Gary finally teld me the story yesterday
that he wants to ask to It's a doozy. I know,
it's a dozy my little inside. Did you call it

(08:02):
to little Lee Hubbard? Yeah? Yeah, because Gary said he
talked a little Lee Hubbard about it.

Speaker 8 (08:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Is that not hilarious? I ain't got the details. Yeah,
he's got to be careful, he's and that's not a
comforting feeling when dealing with Gary. You almost wish you
could take the incident and tell it for Gary. Yeah,
you know, because if Gary tells it, he's gonna tell
it with zero filter. Yeah. He said so many things

(08:28):
when he was telling me yesterday. I said, now, you
can't say that the little bit that was shared with me,
I thought they said there's no way, you're making.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
This up, right, but wow, oh good night? Okay, yep,
Well back to the green eggs and ham. If you
really want it, you really got to show out and
let us know and then basically say I've got my class,
I've got my kid, I'm going to communicate with the teacher,
ye and and we're gonna show you that we want it, right,

(08:55):
that's kind of really what we need.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Glenn on YouTube says, why change tradition? Cal on YouTube
YouTube says, I'm thirty seven and I still enjoy it.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
Oh, there you go. Okay on the two on the
text line me personally, I'm done with it. There's a shocker,
uh that the text line you've got some hate it's
and you've got some love it. Okay, So so you
know that's well, we'll get your feedback on that. Today.

(09:25):
We may do something official like a box verdict, right,
and that means that somebody's going to make the case
on why it should end, and somebody's gonna make the
case on why should continue, and then the jury will
vote and then the judge will rule you in the court.
Will you will you follow the law?

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Will I will be corrupt?

Speaker 4 (09:45):
And like Joe Biden.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yes, this is the Rick Bridgers show. Big Bucks, our
hate much welcomes you to the Rick, but your show.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
Let's go some people Sunday morning.

Speaker 9 (10:15):
He just still be pouring big.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
This old people. Oh God's people.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
So uh, working our way back. Thanks for being with
us today. So we'll do this. A lot of people
chiming in on us, thinking about do we do read
across America again? And we're saying that because I think
it's next week. At the end of next week.

Speaker 5 (10:43):
It's March the second, which lands on a Sunday, so
I believe it's observed.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
On that Monday. Okay, So so we're trying we need
to make a decision for March third. Yeah, you guy,
let me tell you what's happening. If people on the
text line, you better be careful. People are saying, y'all
do it, but let Greg read it. Oh no good,
that'd be horrible. Yeah, that way, kids can hear somebody
read to them that wishes they weren't in the room
with him and he was having to read.

Speaker 7 (11:11):
Green Eggs and Ham read by the Grinch.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
Yeah all right, let me do this because we all
know this book is stupid. Yea them aren't real names
and words rhyme.

Speaker 5 (11:22):
Don't I have this right that you went to Anna
Scott's school is Hobie's daughter and read Larry the lead?

Speaker 4 (11:29):
I sure did, Yeah, and rave review. It didn't happen.
It didn't happen. It's just Greg trying to get into heaven.
Well maybe I figured it was a good arportunity. You're right, yeah,
because because you know the first thing he would say.
I know you've probably heard the story. Bottom line. This
was doctor Seuss trying to be sharp, showing the buddy

(11:50):
is he could do a full book with what was
it fifty words or less or something that they'll have
the kids cry. Now the Larry the leaf reading, I
only charged them half prized. Yeah, so we'll we'll we'll
do a full ball and I do want this. I
want this decided. Yeah, we do need. Okay, vote Greg.

(12:11):
We all know your vote. We all know your vote.
So just Greg, you know, sometimes things are just from
a public relations standpoint there, they're good said I'm just
one vote, and I'm not saying I'm just one vote.
You've seen when that vote comes out, You've seen me.
I'm like, wow, is this back? Yeah? I know but

(12:33):
but I but I'm always thankful, but but but isn't
it great for the kids? Right?

Speaker 5 (12:40):
It's one of these and then they're coming home and look, mom, dad,
is it great for the kids?

Speaker 4 (12:45):
That we heard from them, they seemed to enjoyed. In
the past, I saw a couple of kids mad about
it and Greg, everybody off their for one second. Everybody
off their for one second? All right, all right, so
I knew I knew that was coming out.

Speaker 10 (13:06):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
Greg got to tell y'all poopoo on anything, kids rejoicing.
Uh so let's uh, let's talk a little bit about Greg.
Something Greg does like and there's so few things, but
there's one thing that Greg does. Two things. Greg likes

(13:27):
monkey bread and and he loves his mattress from Helis Yeah, okay, yeah.
If Greg could be in the bed on this Helix
mattress eating monkey bread, would you tell me you got
it like you like it? Don't you? You know why

loved this thing because it was customized for them. Uh
what what a concept? Go there and tell them how

(13:49):
you sleep, and they want to know you know, you
sleep on your side, your back, you know, or your
combo something like that. Are your stomach sleeper like Greg

so we'll get to that today. Also, I have an
email today no from Haybird, heyburg Heybird, hay Bird. It

(14:56):
starts out and this will involve you a little bit
Addler here, and I think the answer, Hey birde Handler
that I know it, but it says hey bird, hey Burge.
I'm not sure who puts together the Greatest Hits podcast.
That's our new podcast, episode six coming up this weekend
Rick and Bubba's Greatest Hits in Radio Gold and that
will be one Eddie van Adler, and I think Speedy

(15:19):
and he gathered them and I think Adler actually loads them, right,
he does all the work. Oh, you do everything, So
this is all Adler Adler. Listen to this. But Speedy,
you chime because you're familiar with the Great Library of
the thirty one years. Yes, yes, now the library.

Speaker 9 (15:33):
I did that.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
Yeah, well that's why I think you might be able
to weigh in. I don't think this exists though, I
don't think we ever grabbed this. I'm not sure who
puts together the Greatest Hits podcast for Saturdays. I told
you that's Adler. But Speedy is kind of the keeper
of the library. Yeah, yeah, I did the editing. But
if originally, but if it's out there, can we get
the telling? And he's quoting of when we pretended that

(15:56):
there was a cult in our hometown of Oxford, Alabama,
and we use choir robes to scare everybody a life.
I'm a lifelong Calhoun County native. That's where Greg and
I are from. That story happened before my time. But
and this is why they want to know. But my
dad and my aunt's plural and uncles remember when it

(16:20):
was going on. So they were all from You probably
have heard about this place, of course I know this.
They're from Welburn. That was a high school county and
it is a high school in County County. Word travels fast,
so what you have here is a generational story. You've
got Calhoun Countians who remember when our group of friends
terrified the county by getting out that there was devil

(16:44):
worshipers slash colt that was taking over the wooded areas
all around there. And we found in the choir room.
You know, our colors at our school were black and gold. Well,
they had decided to go to gold robes and they
had the old ones that were black perfect, so we

(17:04):
donned those, cut the hanging part that goes down almost
to your ankles, cut some off the bottom, and made
the hood type things to put on. And we would
periodically move around, so you never really locked in on
who it was like. Sometimes I would be one of
the people scaring another time I'd be with the people
who got scared by the others. Yeah, and then we

(17:26):
would just rotate around. There really was only about four
or five of us. Of course, we also learned about
why witnesses are not trustworthy. The tales that broke out
through the school and all across the county had the
numbers in the hundreds. At times there were at least
twenty of them, and the most there ever was was three. Yeah,
maybe two to three. But let me tell you something.

(17:49):
When you're out there thinking you're going to go park somewhere,
and all of a sudden, out of the woods come
people in black roads and black hoods. Now, in those days,
nobody shot people as much as they do now. See
that threat came out that ended. Yeah, yeah, once the
guns came out, we stopped the bill. Okay, that's smart,
and threw our robes into chalcolck a creek that were
never found again.

Speaker 5 (18:10):
I can tell you there is no recording best of
of that. Yeah, so I'm so sorry I remember, but yeah, yeah,
we just.

Speaker 4 (18:17):
Did that happen.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Anybody know what year that?

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Oh out the story sold? You're talking about told or
it actually happened both. It happened in the early early eighties,
late seventies. Wow, probably told.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Around nineteen six or seven.

Speaker 4 (18:31):
Yeah, I think Greg, it might have been eighty eighty
one somewhere in the Yeah, it was like.

Speaker 7 (18:36):
The clown scare of two thousand and what.

Speaker 4 (18:38):
It's been referenced a few times over the years. But yeah, so,
but we didn't we didn't grab that one.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
This is the Rick Burdgers Show, still denying any involvements

(19:07):
in the food flights of nineteen seventy nine. Rick Budgess.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
Okay, so I admit since I just talked about the
prank that we were pulling, that doesn't help. So we're back.
As our mother told us, Greg, the reason why people
keep rounding you up every time something happens is because
of all the things that you actually did do. Yeah,

(19:33):
you know, I reckon, that's a pretty good point. It is.
It is you attainted just a little bit. Need to
take them case by case though, So so anyway, no,
I'm sorry email or we don't have that. We didn't
capture that, but we have told it and certainly can
retell it again, as we just did to some degree.
But it was it was, it was you know, it
was a teenage prank. Probably not wise to do that

(19:55):
kind of stuff. And when people got tired of it
and started going out with you know, bands of men
with guns, we stopped that. That was the end of that.

Speaker 5 (20:04):
When it comes to stuff like that, the rolling of
houses and all that, y'all, into the ding dong ditches
and all that, did y'all, we weren't really.

Speaker 4 (20:13):
Yeah, yeah, we we We were doing all kinds of things.
We were always up to something, always up to something,
I remember, and it seemed like it was something like
that speeded it was some sort of ding dong ditch
situation in a neighborhood because you know, it was dark
and and somebody got tired of it, and they called
the law, which is what we say in our culture.

(20:36):
A somebody called the law. And I remember that I
was the law, and it was not this was not
some high criminal thing. I was going to be corrected.
They were going to call my parents that kind of thing.
I wasn't going to jail, you know. And but anyway,
somebody got tired of it, and I remember I was
trying to get away. Remember you remember running how hard
we'd run when the law was called, and you know,

(20:58):
and it was and it was and it was. It
was dark, and I knew that there was a drainage
ditch that was behind me, and I was down like
an animal, crouched in the high weeds. And then all
of a sudden, you know, there was a point where
they would jump me and and I but my plan
was to jump the ditch and then be off into
the woods and then come back around and be gone. Well,

(21:21):
I grossly miscalculated the size of the ditch a little
while grossly I thought it was for some reason during
the day, I guess I'd looked at it and thought, well,
I can jump that. And of course it's dark, so
now I can't see. Yeah, you don't know how to
time you But but that terrible feeling when I when
I hit the bank and thought, I'm jumping to the
other bank, and I just start grabbing air, you know,

(21:42):
like where's that other where's that other bank? You know
what I mean? And all of a sudden I just
hit the side and all of a sudden, the flashlight
just goes. Hey son, climb up out of there, you know,
because I now I'm laying in the bottom of the ditch. Hey, boys,
come on, y'all, come on out.

Speaker 11 (21:55):
They got it.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
So and it was something, it was something evolving ding
don't did something. We were doing something like that sound
kind of prank. Yeah, so I don't remember which one.

Speaker 5 (22:05):
Anytime you were doing like fun pranks and then all
of a sudden, loll came.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
It became real then and then you're scared to death.
When we were real young, like if somebody like rolled
the yard or something, they would put a room or out, Hey,
they got the police near they got fingerprints, fingerprints like
we had any idea correct, and we were like, oh man,
they matched fingerprints, they knew they were well who did it?
And then in the in the thing when you're stupid,

(22:32):
when you're when you're a stupid kid or the dumbest
thing ever created, you're a male teenager, which there's nothing
dumber than that, you know, I think they all times.
I mean, I think about how many times we didn't
really we didn't think things through. And I remember, you know,
we we had a fireworks place where we grew up
Jolly Joe's okay, and so we just go and grab

(22:55):
some random fire work thing. We don't know what it is,
We're not We thought we thought that it was one
of these round things that shoots the little pew pew pew,
you know, out of it, the little missiles. That's what
we thought it was, okay, and maybe a little more homework.
And so our plan was we would go place it

(23:18):
right outside the house of a teacher that we were
not fond of, okay, but we thought it would just
be a peo pew you know, we've we've shot these
things outside, you know, in her yard, and we push
it up as close to the house as we could
not smart, don't do that, Do not do that. And
then we thought we would just run off once again.

(23:39):
You know, we lived in the woods all around these places.
We would get over into the woods and we would
watch it and we'd see her come out, you know,
in her house coat or whatever, and we'd be like,
and it's stupid. Don't do that. Kids. Well, we didn't
know what it was. We thought that's what it was.
That thing went off one and it it like at

(24:01):
one point it was like daylight. There was so much
light off of it, and I remember looking at my
buddy who I know will remain unnamed, and he looked
at me and he said, oh no, I mean it
was such a bigger We were wanted to go out
production and we thought it was right. And uh, you
know what was what was?

Speaker 8 (24:21):
You know?

Speaker 4 (24:21):
We we we were we were we were not very smart,
we know that, but we would think of things like this.
I remember it was on a Thursday night when something
will be involved before a football game, and we would
all have our jerseys on for some reason, do we
have to go to something? Was it a dinner or something?
Didn't everybody eat on Thursday night? Was that what it was?

(24:41):
But I remember again back to our colors being black
and gold. So we had the black jerseys. But we,
for some reason, you and we thought we were so smart.
We would take the jersey and turn it inside out
where you couldn't see our numbers, you know, where it
looked like just a black shirt, you know, whether it's
a little bit of the But I think to myself,
so that's that's that was your plan? What were you thinking?
How about just don't do it? You know? How about that?

(25:04):
But that you know, let me say one thing. If
a teacher doesn't appear to care for you. This is
not the way to win her over. Yeah, and this
is one of those things. Again. We were never officially caught,
but I could tell she the way she looked at us,
she knew. She knew. Yeah, Rick, I always knew. It
was the same people. Every time you hear me, they're

(25:25):
not stupid. And Greg can confirm that last text that
just came in. Let me see my dad is oh
I know, yes, Greg Budd. Greg. Wait a minute, Greg,
did you do car?

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Greg?

Speaker 4 (25:36):
Did you know it? Wouldn't know what I did? Steal
his car? This guy's dad said you stole his car.
I did, and I brought it at a gathering, and
and you brought it back the next day. But you're
saying that the part that's exaggerated is that you wasn't
wrecked in one the next day. It was later that
But you did take it. I did, just transam, just

(25:57):
didn't wreck it and and and did bring it back
the same day. Well real late, real late, Okay, but
you did take it. I don't remember reckon it, oh
naice as I can't remember. Maybe scratched m hm, that's possible, right,
And Greg, can you remember it's a really cool car. Yeah,
back to the back to this my mother's station wagon.

(26:17):
What do you think I've seen that? Baby, I said,
I'm taking this. Yeah, you probably should have. My buddy,
so I knew, you know, he knew, but you probably
shouldn't take people's car. Yeah, just a little spin, just
a little joy, right, Yeah, got it, wregged, but brought
it back. But when you go back to class after
something like that, you know, of course it's game day now,
so you don't want to get in trouble. Cod Oh no,
and just listen. It is true. I got other stories

(26:41):
with his dad, Greg, Greg. This guy is telling his
son about you, and none of it's good. But of
course I do. Yeah, of course I know who that is.
But you know how you always have that guy. You
remember when we were little boys, it was it was
it was our cousin. When we were little boys at
the time, we rode on the house with crayons and
we denied it like there was some other you know,

(27:02):
there were some kids that ran over and rode in
our house, not us for some reason. I mean we
literally were like five and I mean six and four. Yeah,
so I was under four years old and my cousin
when we thought we gotten away with it. You know,
my mom's probably probably trying to keep from laughing, and
my cousin goes, look at look at that, uh, look
at this boat I drew inkwn and we're like idiot,

(27:24):
even as the little boys when you are stupid. But
back to that, So now in the classroom, you're trying
to be after the firework incident whatever, and you're trying
to go back and be cool the next day, and
of course you always have this idiot. Uh let's let's
say her name was miss Smith. I'm not gonna say
what her name was. Oh, miss Smith? Do you have
a good night last night? And everything okay? And you're
like idiot. Yeah, it's like, you know, do you not

(27:50):
remember the woodlands being lit up? We saw enough? Like
he wanted more? What everything?

Speaker 3 (27:57):
And I'm like, you eating them rod.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
Anything interested. It's like a dumb and dumber when that hamburger.

Speaker 9 (28:09):
Exactly right.

Speaker 4 (28:11):
And the reason why that worked in the movie is
people do that all the time. You hate that person,
can't handle it. You know they're gonna break every time.
She's not the same thing about it. Let's just be cool, man, Hey,
miss me everything night, so Greg, they're here. It just again.
He keeps telling us he said, he's saying the tram

(28:33):
was messed up. You messed the trim up on his transam,
says that some of the tram was torn off. Wasn't no,
that probably did happen.

Speaker 9 (28:39):
Did you do it?

Speaker 4 (28:41):
That's not good that it's a transam, by the way,
you know that you know what it was. You're right,
that was something that there wasn't no need for you.
And I'd even dream about we were in the Ozellville
Visita Cruiser with the wood handling because that car was available.
That's right. We weren't gonna get a TRANSI always three
on the column. That's right, you know, And hey, he
got transam.

Speaker 5 (28:59):
You want to remember, Well, that's the problem.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
So I actually did him a favor. I did. He
didn't have no bag crown.

Speaker 5 (29:14):
And we want to get into the phone prayings. Before
there was a thing called colorade that was so much fun.

Speaker 4 (29:23):
I missed that, I really do. We'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
This is the Rick Burcher's show. They can and do
the truth, The Ck Butcher's Show.

Somebody was asking, am I using any online commentaries? And
I'm not. I'm kind of old school. I get the
books and and it just works better with me when
I'm trying to lay them out. I'm I'm quirky by
stuff like that. So so anyway, but I'm happy to
share those with you anytime. Uh, Greg, I got to respond.

(30:33):
Greg is a punk who thinks he's so cold. You
are correct, Greg is a punk who thinks he's so cool.
Oh I see that one.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
Yeah, I think I love the one you think of
green eggs and ham Greg, when because you don't want
to do it, but think of your grandkids?

Speaker 4 (30:49):
Yes, you know, I mean think of them. Yeah, but
they won't be listening. How do you know that? I
guess they might? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love. I will
give you about three pages and then that one a
different book now, I like I go, We'll go Clifford
the Red Dog right in the hop on pop. I
love the texture that says, Greg, won't you go back

(31:10):
and be the lawyer again? That defended the month of
February when you're a little baby, Greg, and you can
defend green eggs and ham on. Why read across America
needs to be part of this? Well, I guess that's
not a bad Why do you have a bad attitude
about it? I don't. I'm just right. It's look, you're real, Greg.
You know you don't beat around the bush. I'd like
to see you get a different book. What well, everybody's
heard that one of a thousand. But that's what everybody

(31:32):
loves it? You know it is it? Get it all
right now, y'all are actually once a month. See if
the kids are riding in the streets there there, let
me tell who's on fire? Forward for some rings, Calvin.
I mean, my good remember loaded thinking of my grandson River.

(31:52):
He's gonna love, by the way, lucky that uncle Rick
read it. Speaking of that, Grid, is your Christmas tree
still up? Yeah? Good? Greg? Come on, we're going the
next two weekends, so I don't know right, Oh, that's right.
I can take that in the middle week.

Speaker 5 (32:13):
Yeah, this is Greg talking out loud by taking out
loud of me.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
So now it's one of them things. It's like you're
under stare. In context, you're gonna say how long you stare?
Who's gonna blink? Right?

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Yeah, well I will say this, Greg, you are getting
to the point where you just leave it up, right?

Speaker 4 (32:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (32:30):
Why not if you start thinking about so we take
it down this this late and what eight and a
half months from now, we're gonna put it back up?

Speaker 4 (32:37):
Yeah? The uh, well baby shining but here. Yeah, it's uh,
the the things like somebody threw out there, which I understand.
Somebody on the text they said, well, this was actually
a tradition of of the Rick and Bubba show, which
is now retired. So a lot of things you guys
are doing are new. That's true. But I was the

(32:58):
one who read it, and and I'm still here. It's
kind of like saying, don't do Dicky n Admire anymore
where we're going to because that's something that that I did.
You use that, yes, and don't you know, don't do
healing boy anymore. Healing boar was even before Ricking Bubble. Yeah,
it was a tradition when I was just doing the
show by myself. Yeah, I agree with him, and they say,

(33:18):
don't do Beth Moens anymore. I agree. Yeah, but that's
that's true. Yeah, yeah, that's probably true. But you know
what I mean, if if it's if you know, like
Adler doing Henry the Horse yesterday, well he is Henry
the Horse, so if he's still here, right, you know,
those kind of things. But but but no, I do,
and that one is kind of a little bit of
a gray area. Uh, you're right, So I don't know.
I really don't have an opinion on it. I'm kind

(33:41):
of like, do it if everybody loves it, and if
it has an impact, if it's run its course, and
you know me, I cool on things. So honestly, I'm
not one to participate because things get old to me
so fast. Or you'd have stopped it twenty years Oh absolutely,
don't forget.

Speaker 5 (33:58):
I've had to keep the books every year, and I
just hand.

Speaker 4 (34:01):
Him to him in the morning up. Can you imagine
what he would have done? Well he'd been done with it,
and twenty ten would have thought and you just said,
where's that book. Well I had, right, Yeah, so so anyway, yeah,
it was so I understand all that. But remember, though,
you got to think these things through. If if the
individuals that did things, you know, that have not been retired,
are still here, those things still continue on, but there

(34:24):
are a lot of new things we're doing too, So
we kind of say, you know, a little bit of
the old and and a lot of the news. So
so anyway we'll do it.

Speaker 5 (34:33):
Let's let's just say so, y'all don't want kids going
home and telling their parents about the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Y'all don't want that.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I wish somebody would think of the children. What was
that think of the children?

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Well, you can tell he's somebody's dad. There was a time.
There's a time he'd been in there, you know, have
his have his guitar across his lap, and he'd be like,
who cares, Yeah, you know so long, yeah, let me
let me, let me, let me shred. Won't somebody please
think of the speak? Speaking of that, aren't you working
on something Forrest Adler?

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Yes, i am, I am. I'm working on a little
quick stupid parody song.

Speaker 4 (35:08):
Is that today or tomorrow?

Speaker 6 (35:10):
Maybe?

Speaker 2 (35:10):
Wait?

Speaker 4 (35:11):
Today?

Speaker 2 (35:11):
Is this is it going to be cold tomorrow?

Speaker 4 (35:13):
Also very tomorrow? Is the really cold day this week?

Speaker 7 (35:17):
Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, But yeah, we'll figure out. Yeah, noncommittal.

Speaker 4 (35:22):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
How I do it?

Speaker 4 (35:24):
Think of? Do you do? Y'all? Have a Doctor Souss book?

Speaker 11 (35:29):
You like?

Speaker 4 (35:30):
Beyond? You know, save Green Eggs and ham? Is that
you like? Hop on popping? I like I like red Fish?
One fish to fish? Where are you on? Horton? Here's
a who a little too weird, little weird? Can ha's
a little weird? Yeah it is?

Speaker 5 (35:43):
Yeah, you know, I'm not a very good reader out
loud uh on things I haven't prepped in one year.
I went to Helena Elementary and they handed me of
one of them. I head read, I don't remember the name,
really struggled through it.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
Did you know there's some of my I'm good you
read upside down and I like it to be with
a huge fun y Yeah, yeah that such? Are you
go to read the kids and you told yourself you
looked the book over before you got it's got like
a paragraph and you're like, there's one Doctor Clifford yesterday?
Did you really? There's one Doctor Seuss book that makes

(36:17):
me a little bit emotional. Oh the places you'll go, don't.
I don't remember that one. And that's the name of it.
It's something like that.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
Yeah, yeah, I mean some of these you got to
watch out though, I mean you'll get into it.

Speaker 12 (36:28):
And it's like the wuzzles and the fuzzles decided to
wobble do dooble do down this and you're just like,
my goodness, going crazy here.

Speaker 4 (36:35):
What's the one when they were getting the mark on
their stomach and then yes, wanted a copy on then
they didn't want it anymore? Right? Who are you? Because
here's what I think about you, knowing you, and i've
known you, I can't I've known you a real long time.
I believe. I'm pretty sure i've known you about fifty
eight years, Yeah, pretty much, or what are you now? Fifty?
So I'm a little surprised that you're not just saying

(36:58):
what I think knowing you is the truth. This kind
of stuff, this little zaney I make up words and stuff.
I kind of think doctor SEUs gets on your nerves
at times if he over doesn't. Yeah, you're right words yeah, yeah,
And I'm a little bit zaney do it?

Speaker 13 (37:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (37:14):
And they look weird right, don't you see that? Wouldn't
that be something?

Speaker 2 (37:20):
The sneeches are the ones that had the mark of
the beast or whatever. It was not the mark of
the beast or the star David or something. Was it
a Holocaust thing? What was it?

Speaker 4 (37:30):
No, that's not what any of that.

Speaker 2 (37:32):
We are the sneeches memory here.

Speaker 4 (37:34):
Sorry, the children, I don't remember. I remember it now,
but that's not one of those I go to. Yeah. Yeah,
so I'm pretty much with the kids. They rotate hop
on pop. They got green eggs and ham, they like that. Yeah,
I'm gonna say right now we're on Clifford. Yeah, I'm
gonna say that that the that that. I don't think
you're gonna farewell today, speedy on the vote, I don't.

(37:58):

Speaker 2 (38:00):
What about what about there's a walkeet in my pocket?

Speaker 4 (38:03):
Oh I don't know that, but I no, that is
a that's a good one. By the way, Loome ridiculous rhymes. Say,
now that one's not for you, Greg, but it is.
It's funny. I did I do like that.

You've heard us talk quite a bit here. You know.

(40:09):
We're now in show thirty three of the Rick Burgess
Show era with the four of us, and there's been
a lot of breakfast talk. Oh yeah, you know, there's
some things, you know, never change, and apparently some things
do change. And our pursuit of breakfast is a biggie
a lot of Hey, that's that's mine. I didn't bring

(40:32):
that for everybody. Hey, hey, I brought something for everybody.
We don't like what you brought. Hey, I one day
was awarded the Gay Breakfast Award. You didn't even know
that existed. You want in a landslide, Well, listen to
this story, and there is a news package to go
with it. Here's the headline. Argument over breakfast food leads

(40:55):
to woman fatally shooting her boyfriend. This is in Louisiana, yep,
and we have a woman that's been arrested on a
second degree murder charge. We have the news package courtesy
do you know.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
W W L something?

Speaker 4 (41:16):
Okay, thank you? That how to do it?

Speaker 5 (41:19):
And after they set it up, it might get a
little boring. You can skip ahead. But yeah, the lady,
she calls it in herself, the one that did the
fatal shooting. She calls it in, says, hey, we I
shot him. There was somebody that killed an argument over
breakfast yep. So here here we Go.

Speaker 14 (41:36):
Only is grieving tonight after investigators say a woman shot
her partner after an argument over breakfast. Ah the Devil
shooting happening Sunday morning in Laplace.

Speaker 15 (41:44):
In an exclusive interview you see only on WWL, Louisiana
Eleanor Debone spoke to the aunt of the victim, Joshua Jones,
who described her nephew as a hard working man.

Speaker 10 (41:55):
Joshua is my sister's only child.

Speaker 4 (41:59):
Oh wow, this's in there.

Speaker 5 (42:01):
Yeah, you can go ahead about like maybe two minutes
or something, I don't know, off in there. And they
basically just said through here you go. This might be
good right around here.

Speaker 16 (42:10):
No, the sheriff's officers, not the investigation deputies learned the
pairs relationship was volatile, but says there are no documented
reports with the office.

Speaker 10 (42:18):
I heard some things.

Speaker 5 (42:21):
You know, like you know, back a little bit, they
say to the investigation it was.

Speaker 16 (42:26):
The Saint John the Baptist. Sheriff's office deputies were called
to a class home Sunday morning. The Sheriff's office says
twenty four year old TAMARRII Hubbard from Marrero called nine
one one, saying she shot her boyfriend in the chest
the officers. Hubbard told deputies the duo were arguing over
the food made for breakfast she had dined at the scene.

Speaker 5 (42:46):
Eggs, sloppy, running eggs.

Speaker 4 (42:51):
I don't know that this story does it. This story
I'm holding does not right.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
Here.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
It is after the call. We just admitted to shooting
Jones following a dispute about the food that had been prepared.
I know that there's someone dead, and I don't want
to be insensitive, because you know that's not my nature,
but I'd like to know more to taills hear their
relationship was sometimes volatile. Well, anybody who disagreed with that

(43:21):
they stay corrected today. Yeah, but was this I don't
like the choices eggs, I don't like how it was prepared,
or you ate the last piece of toast. I wanted it.

Speaker 5 (43:33):
It says here in the story to your point, Rick,
I wish it only says it was a dispute over
the food that was prepared for breakfast and personal finances.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
That says those.

Speaker 5 (43:46):
Maybe we're talking about the cause of the breakfast the eggs.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
Wait a minute, it could be you didn't go buy eggs.
Did you ain't got money for that? Right? Was it
one of those eggs are too expensive. You should have
made something else. Well, I tell you what, I like eggs. Yeah,
you think it's one of those. I don't think breakfast
is breakfast without eggs. Still don't see how any of
those arguments, and they should not greg that. There's there's
definitely bigger problems than breakfast. She should have made something up,

(44:13):
said he tried to attack me.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
This sentence may tell us a little bit about the relationship.

Speaker 7 (44:17):
Yes, is from the ant I.

Speaker 10 (44:19):
Think I heard some things, you know, like you know
that they would argue, that she would argue with him
because he was very laid back. To my knowledge, it
never got to a point where it should have been
anything this serious.

Speaker 4 (44:34):
Amen to that.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
So there's it seems like she she she might just
have anger problems and and god out of control. That's horrible.
My goodness, breakfast, come on. Although I'm very hungry right now.

Speaker 4 (44:47):
I can't imagine about food.

Speaker 5 (44:49):
Next thing, I know, I'm shooting somebody in chase. Well,
how did we get there?

Speaker 4 (44:53):
Well, you've got I wondered how far in the meal
were that? Did they get to finish? It sounds like
to me just start right, you know when when police
got there, was it still over on the stove over egg? Uh?
But the was it? Did he decide like me to
maybe have a little granolaver now and then talk a

(45:14):
little heat. But no, I don't I understand when people look,
we all know people that have anger issues, okay, but
when your when your anger issue is more than just
while you you pitch temper fits and it turns into
while you have a gun and you're shooting someone that
apparently you claim to love in some way, that's when

(45:37):
you got a that that's a whole another place right there.
It is, especially over breakfast and finances.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
I mean, I've been angry before, but I mean, my goodness.

Speaker 4 (45:48):
Escalated, Yeah, it really did. And and so I don't
they don't give us the details other than I think
I think what we can walk away from with zero
hesitation is it was the word that was said in
the story they had a volatile relationship. Now you're hearing
his side of the family saying he was the laid back,
she was the volatile. Yeah, I don't know the truth

(46:09):
of that. She's not gonna make much of a case
that she's not the volatile, you know, since she shot
him in the chest that that does the case against you.
It got some momentum there, it does. Yeah, so it
does look like that you can be volatile. Yeah so yeah,
so I don't know.

Speaker 5 (46:26):
So she called herself and said it was over breakfast.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
Wow, I've made something up, yeah something, but yeah, yeah,
it's you. You know what I would have probably if
you were her, and there's no excuse for it. She's
hopefully going to be punished if everything in here is correct.
But you almost have to just skip the breakfast part

(46:55):
and say, you know, we were having financial arguments, even
though a financial argue it should not lead to someone's death.
Don't don't throw the breakfast thing in. I'm with you.
I think I would have left that. It's just not
it's not a good look. I mean, hey it's breakfast,
so uh, we'll be back.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Do you think it escalated when it's like they were
arguing when he's I tell you what you need to
do getting that kitchen.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
The males and that the ads and they better not
be greasy greens day slimy as.

Speaker 7 (47:22):
I'm cardy and slippy slimy egg.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
Somebody said, it's like when Alan Iverson was talking aout
we're talking about practice. We're talking about breakfast. All right, right,

It's not for the it's not for the pansy. No.
So Nora is aging strong, so and so much energy. Yeah,
so so angry, so upset, so speedy. You you had
this this thing of people treating I can't get in

(50:45):
my mind our age, I know. And you had a
situation involving the pharmacy. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (50:52):
I just had to run through the pharmacy yesterday and
grab something and after they you know, they got what
we needed and was in me out.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
She said.

Speaker 5 (51:01):
Now, mister Wilburn, I do want you to know that
you we have on here. You really need to get
your shingles shot.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
And I went oo careful saying that one.

Speaker 5 (51:10):
I know, I said, if you noticed, I had to
slow down and you really were tapping those breads hit
in that parking spot.

Speaker 4 (51:16):
Try new Macoco pneumonia shot. You get that new Macock
on the mona, Yeah, we're.

Speaker 5 (51:21):
Bone right right, and and it just made me just
I just I looked around to see did anybody hear that?

Speaker 4 (51:27):
You know? Luckily I was the only one in line. Yeah, yeah,
I just had to jeritals I still have.

Speaker 5 (51:35):
And the lady, she was a little younger, you know,
behind the counter, and I said, wow, that just hit hard.
She started laughing. She yeah, mostly it does. We hear
that a lot. She said, but you are you need
to get it because you don't want shingles.

Speaker 4 (51:49):
I'll tell you that.

Speaker 5 (51:50):
And I was like, wow, I said, you really really yeah,
And it just I don't just I just walked to
the car, like.

Speaker 4 (51:57):
Shingles one, I wasn't that big a deal you did? Yeah,
I thought. I shook it off like it was nothing.
Did you have shingles? Whins? You have shingles? That was
new pneumonia. No, I don't know if you had Shane.
I did. You didn't have shang. I thought you did.
I don't know you didn't have sh You had a
story about you shingling. It was somewhere around two thousand
and eight, two thousand and nine, right in there. Yeah,

(52:18):
I was at the show. I remember really maybe you
thought it was shingles. I think it was because you know,
if you have shingles.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
How bad was it?

Speaker 4 (52:25):
Like?

Speaker 2 (52:26):
How you I want your body?

Speaker 4 (52:27):
I had those things breaking out on me. I didn't
feel great, but my goodness, I just I just pushed
through it. Right. Well you hear it wasn't that big
a deal.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
I get like that.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Yeah, it was because you never know where it's going
to hit, you know. I mean, it's I don't want shingles.
But again they do act like it's it's like the
booger bear. I mean, look at the coll Look, well
we're hawking shots now and I make it tomorrow. Was
what is it? If you've had chicken pox, you get
the shingles? Is that what it was?

Speaker 2 (52:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (52:55):
They say there's somehow connects laying dormant and you.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
After a person ship box. Yes, right, the virus remains
dormant in the body and nerve cells. The virus reactivates
later in life, causing shingles.

Speaker 5 (53:09):
And you look, it could come up on your arm,
your back, your your stomach, or could come up on
it right in them just all right on your cheek.

Speaker 4 (53:16):
Did you did you have a bad case of chicken
paws when you're a kid. I think I had a
pretty bad I kind of remember that. I mean I
was like four, Yeah, I was real young.

Speaker 5 (53:26):
I just walked back to the cars, just walking through
the parking lot, like, wow, do you remember she said
I need to get shingles?

Speaker 4 (53:32):
Right? Do you remember? And this is this is really
gonna drop home what you're talking about. Spirit. I remember
when they would they would run commercials about pharmaceuticals. Now
they don't not like they do now. And I saw
were rf K juniors even considering almost that cigarettes that
he's gonna limit how much marketing they can do or
wants to do or something down some stuff. Yeah, but anyway,

(53:55):
you getuff.

Speaker 8 (53:56):
I like.

Speaker 4 (53:56):
But most of the things that I would look at,
they would always throw out who needed it, And I
was never in there. I was like, oh, yeah, I'm
too young for that. Now when they throw it out,
I'm like, wow, I'm like full blown. Who they're talking to? Yeah,
I'm the target Wait, I'm the target audience for this
vaccine and this whatever. Let me ask you this. Basically,

(54:17):
they're telling me that I've reached the point other people
can getting pneumonia and be fine.

Speaker 5 (54:21):
It's gonna kill you, oh man, yeah yeah. But my
initial response was, no, I'm I'm I'm a junior. I
got I'm not John Calvin Wolburn's senior. I'm junior. That's
my dad you're thinking of. And then I realized, no,
I am fifty six.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
It's just on to me.

Speaker 5 (54:37):
Try to really try to sell it to You can
come out over here if you want to just get it.

Speaker 4 (54:41):
Why do all these pharmaceutical commercials they have to dance.
They think that's the only way to get the mess.
If you know everyone, they ll in line or they
want you to think they're happy. We're happy we're dancing, right, yeah, yeah,
I mean then they they they're supposed to be showing
us we should all be dancing with joy that this
shot is available. I mean, what's the dancing they Are

(55:02):
they dancing after the shot? Were they dancing because of
the shot? Are they dancing in celebration of its availability?
There's the one is the guy he's kind of got
the white man disease. He's trying to dance out you
know what I'm talking about. He's he kind of buff
guy you can't quite get step up. Then they go
side effects.

Speaker 5 (55:20):
His dry mouth, massiverea, this kind of possible death, and
then they're still dance.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
There's dance about well they just said, but then there's
one with that kind of chunky lady. Then she's very
coordinated though. Yeah, so you have to tell us he's
got a chunky but she can, you know, have I
love to dance. Oh I love to see chunky people
who can move you know what? Yeah? Oh yeah, chunky
people good feet.

Speaker 2 (55:43):
Speaking of chunk of people that can move, y'all. Remember
during COVID when they're like the hospitals are overloaded.

Speaker 12 (55:48):
It's the worst pandemic in history, and yet for some reason,
all these nurses can work on this choreographed dance.

Speaker 5 (55:56):
It be kind of funny with the flu numbers and
what we're experiencing. I'm hearing raising numbers with that sad too.
How many people are either hospitalized or the deaths, and
the media is really not covering it.

Speaker 4 (56:06):
Yeah, but I will say three thousand deaths for flu
is pretty normal. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (56:10):
No, I'm just saying it's like, you know, fifty thousand hospitalizations,
you know, three thousand deaths. Anyway, I'm just saying, if
it was COVID, it would have been they'd have.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
A counter on CNN and saying Trump is killing even
to these people with his bare hands.

Speaker 4 (56:23):
Yeah, well, I think they've also learned that, you know,
fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, share
on me. Yeah, you remember us saying there was a
time when all this was called getting sick. Sure, and
people who are more susceptible and not and not maybe
healthy or maybe their immune system has been compromised by
cancer treatments. There's people that have always been at higher

(56:45):
risk from anything than other people. Uh, and that's it.
That's horrible and you need to be you know, wise
when it comes to that. And we also need to
look after them any way we can by not putting
them at unnecessary risk. But that's kind of been the
case as long as there's been sickness. But you know,
we we have this. We all have the same doctor here.

(57:06):
And what he told you about machineles vaccine is gonna
make you feel bad all weekend. I'm out, he Remember
when we don't have a I don't have a weekend,
I can feel bad.

Speaker 7 (57:15):
Remember when we said it came from lab and then
we were right.

So Greg, I know that we were talking about so
that a lot about the shingles thing coming in, got
all that. Thank y'all for that. And there you are right,
there's different degrees. And I think what I had back
in you know, the first ten years of the New millennium.

(01:00:29):
It was two thousand and eight nine, somewhere in there.
I think I just had a mild case. They said
there's mild cases, there's severe cases. I understand that. I
just I'm just saying that when I had them for me,
it wasn't any big deal. But that means I had
a mild case. So you need to make decisions with
your doctor that are best for you because if you
get if you get a rough case, it's a miserable experience,

(01:00:51):
no doubt about that. And so we were talking about,
you know, people are agreeing with you, Greg that for
some reason, most of these pharmaceutical commercials involved chunky people
who can dance. We don't know why. But you said,
there's something else that you'd like to stamp up. I'm
done with this too, This thing where we do a
heart with our hand, We're over doing that. Everybody. I

(01:01:11):
mean every situation. You're right, first of people, A lot
of people are struggling trying to do it right. This
is that. But I'm done with that. We can move
on something else. Can I tell you that I'm pretty confident.
Matter of fact, I don't even have any reservation. I've
never done it, and I never will. There's no way
at people do it because there's something they're not thinking.

(01:01:33):
Doesn't really look like a heart? Yeah? Does it really? Yeah?
You know it didn't have to do it? Then that
does not so much. Here here, here, here's an idea.
Whatever happened to thank you? And they don't love everybody
they're doing it? No, of course they don't. If it's
if it's saying I love you, I'm grateful, why don't
you just say thank you? Yeah, everybody in the arena,
I'm not doing y'all see this.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
Y'all seen this. It's like you come at somebody with
like a raptor claw with his two fingers. You're supposed
to do the opposite.

Speaker 4 (01:01:59):
So we make a heart together. Oh, you're making this
up out of this is not happening. This is not
Oh wow, we love that means we're really nice. Who's
doing that? And we love everybody who's doing that people.

Speaker 5 (01:02:14):
Okay, oh god, I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:02:18):
So glad you're off camera because everybody, let's never do
that again. Well and that really they started right here.
Oh yeah, they do it to the camera too. This
is let me get it out, Greg, and any one
thing of the worst, like somebody comes onto the stage
or something. Oh, they like that. We're coming down and
I'm like you, I've got my fingers don't work, there's
broke up, and yeah all that I don't. I don't.

(01:02:40):
I don't even think it looks like a heart. No,
not really. I think I mean you got to get
it perfect in the perfect angle.

Speaker 7 (01:02:46):
Yeah, don't work for it. My thumbs don't work for
the bottom of the look squared off.

Speaker 4 (01:02:50):
Everybody agrees to you, Greg. People are coming on the text
option just saying amen that you talk about something overdone
and just let's move off this. Yeah. When it first started,
I wasn't sure what it was. I thought, or that
is that is you the bird right their fingers up.
But then I got I was supposed to be a heart.
See I kind of put that. I'm putting up a
heart that means I love everybody. Is that what it

(01:03:12):
means I guess.

Speaker 7 (01:03:14):
Yeah, I guess so, yeah, I love you wouldn't know
about it.

Speaker 4 (01:03:19):
What kind of love are we talking about? Are we
talking about me? Are we talking about the kind of
love that is demanded by our Lord and Shavior of
Jesus Christ, that we're to love people enough not to
dislike them so much that we wouldn't be willing to
hope redemption for them. Now that that one, that one,
I think it's that. I think it's a god well,
that that would be a yeah, yeah, that is a

(01:03:41):
god love I'm in on. But this thing of everybody
is wonderful to be with or be around or desire
to be and no, that's just not true. Yeah, and
you feel it feels forced, Well, I got to do
this hard things, but think a well, it's also streakes
to both hands. It's a little hard to do. Like you,
Greg's also that thing that were coursing nothing from me
except a hand signal.

Speaker 7 (01:04:02):
Look, Taylor Swift can do it. That's pretty much.

Speaker 2 (01:04:05):
That's it, right.

Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
I'm glad Taylor Swift. Whatever happened to a heartfelt Hey,
I just want to thank all of y'all for being here.
This means so much. To me, it really does. I mean,
if it weren't for you, you know, I wouldn't I wouldn't
have the life I have. You're you've been so supportive
of me. I want to give you a great show
tonight as my way of saying thank you. What's wrong
with that? Doesn't that feel a little more sincere than

(01:04:27):
that you did some hand sign to me?

Speaker 17 (01:04:30):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:04:30):
And for all we know it's I'm gonna start doing
it every day to get show going. I honestly don't.
I honestly don't think I can do it. That one
there looks like, what is that? Scared somebody?

Speaker 2 (01:04:41):
That's the raptor cloth?

Speaker 4 (01:04:42):
Is this the raptor cloth thing I'm talking about? Heart?
They're they're asking me to do things with my with
my hands. I can't even do. I couldn't do that.
People would look at me and goes Rick looking at
this binoculars. Pretty good, Adler, Wow you.

Speaker 2 (01:04:59):
Got some I did it yesterday to the camera and
the break you did. I just remembering that right now.

Speaker 4 (01:05:06):
Yeah, so you were telling why, wow, that's not.

Speaker 2 (01:05:11):
I'm not proud of it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:12):
You've done it, did yesterday do.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
The camera and I'm remembering now.

Speaker 7 (01:05:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:05:16):
I got a four year old daughter. I'm weak, getting
me up, I'm softy now.

Speaker 4 (01:05:27):
That that one. That's let's bring back. Here's the church,
here's the steeple, and see all the people. The people.
We used to do that. The first time you saw it,
you thought, man, I wish I could do that, because

(01:05:49):
I did it wrong and I had them like this
and I couldn't have the people. The church was empty
when I opened it. I have to, you have to.
I want to show the people the thing that Dad
taught us. But looking back, is that a bad thing?
When he pull his thumb off, no this and then
yeah about like this, and you go, yeah, completely forgot

(01:06:12):
you know what you're doing? Great moves, Dad was.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
He's just a funny thing. I don't think that's a
I don't think that's like a Wiener joker.

Speaker 4 (01:06:17):
No, no, no, noet my dad, my dad, My dad.
That really embraced the hand sign. That is not a
good one. Yeah, and just a finger. Matter of fact,
that one of the most dangerous things about him with
Alzheimer's is he would he would do it to people
like it restaurants and stuff, and we're like, Dad, you
can't that's a serious almost breeding people. He somehow flipped

(01:06:38):
it into he was actually positive. It was like, I
don't mean anything about that. I'm like, well, pretty people
don't get that. You know that's got one meaning. I
forgot about Rick. You need to stop doing that. Aout.

Speaker 5 (01:06:54):
So I'm walking in the in the mall and carrying Tyler.
He's tiny, tiny, and I've carried him often. The guy
comes up to me and he tasked me on the show,
and he goes, hey, just want to let you know
your son has been you know you're using that same
birds uh the entire wagon where he got.

Speaker 4 (01:07:09):
It right at you got I'm like what he didn't
even know what he was doing. I don't know where
he learned it.

Speaker 5 (01:07:15):
Brobby Uncle Greg is quite an embarrassing moment if you deserve.

Speaker 3 (01:07:21):
This is the Rick Burgess show. Call Lord text the
show at what eight six big bucks?

Speaker 4 (01:07:42):
We're back? Han't youre being with us texting talking about this.
Greg wants to band and boys. He's really getting a
lot of fanfare in support that we will remove, like
we did a lot of things from our society. We
were for removing the hand hearts Yeah, textures saying a male. Sorry,

(01:08:04):
average should never have done it ever, not even once.
No man, someone saying Rick with your hands. All you
can show us is a broken heart. That's hilarious funny.
So anyway, we'll do our part to ban that. So
we got a couple of things to work through today.
Andy Andrews coming up a little bit later on in

(01:08:25):
the program, and it's gonna been a potential new segment.
You know, everything we're throwing out, we go, yay, that
work that went well. Some things will make it, some
things won't. That's just the process of doing what we
all do for a living. But we'll try something with
Andy that I found interesting and we'll see if you
do too. Coming up a little bit later on the program,
and it is another opportunity for you to win some

(01:08:46):
cool stuff, so stand by for that. This is a
video audio that we've had for a little bit. I
know it's I think at least this is day two.
It's pretty good. There's a young woman that has moved
from to to the United States from South Africa, and

(01:09:07):
of course, you know our connections to South Africa with
you know, John Thomas and everything he has to do.
And it's a it's an incredible place. If you've never
been to South Africa. We're talking about going back here
probably maybe next year. There is no place on Earth
like it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:25):
Visually, Cape Town, isn't that where you're at?

Speaker 4 (01:09:27):
Yeah? Crazy, I went to the most southern part of
the continent of Africa because you can there it's just
and then of course the culture there is very interesting
but also just and they and they say this themselves,
extremely chaotic. You know, the fall of apartheid was something
that needed to take place, that was certainly evil. But

(01:09:49):
boy after that that, you know, once Mandela kept it
really really stable, but once he went on in it
really is is a chaotic grab for power now and
then you have all the different tribal languages, and then
you have the English, uh it. You know, you've got
the British that's been there, you got the Afrikaans that

(01:10:09):
they're there, and then you've got all the different tribes.
It is a very chaotic place. But but it's probably
one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. So
here's someone and that or set this up that has
now moved here from what we just talked about from
South Africa, and they're talking about what.

Speaker 2 (01:10:26):
Just culture shock moving from South Africa to the USA,
and some of these things strike me as like, well,
no that's not that's I like that about American culture,
and some of it's like okay, that's a good point.

Speaker 4 (01:10:37):
Okay, all right, this is gonna be very interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:10:39):
See South African and yes, Greg, she's she does have
white skin, Greg double.

Speaker 4 (01:10:44):
So would this be from the British or the Afrikaans?
Probably Afrikaan, I bet okay, I would think, don't you
think from the Dutch? They Dutch German? Oh there, they
just have a very harsh accent.

Speaker 2 (01:10:56):
Hers is pretty easy culture.

Speaker 15 (01:10:58):
Shocks I experienced in the South again moving to the
United States. Well, the first thing is is seeing the
USA flex on everyone's front porch, their room, against.

Speaker 9 (01:11:09):
The wall everywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
That's because we love America for example.

Speaker 15 (01:11:15):
The second thing is definitely how the money looks. Our
money in South Africa is different colors, kind of like
monopoly money. So the one hundred rand bill is blue,
the fifty one is red. Where in the States, I
feel like all the bills are the exact same, and
why do they also have a one dollar bill like paper?

(01:11:35):
But that small amount it should be a coin. In
my opinion. Another one is that tax is not included
on the price tag.

Speaker 3 (01:11:46):
At all.

Speaker 15 (01:11:47):
Like you see the price and then when you go
and pay, it's more they don't include it on the
price tag.

Speaker 4 (01:11:53):
That's my biggest.

Speaker 15 (01:11:53):
Shock was definitely the first time I went to a
restaurant when I paid for my food and they walked
way with my credit card. I did not know what
was happening. So basically, when you're done eating and you
get your bill or the amount of money that you
have to pay your slip, then you give them your card,

(01:12:15):
they leave and then they come back and then you
give you write down the tip. So that in South
Africa they come to you, they have a machine, you
put the card in the machine, they don't leave with
your card like that was so scary to me. The
last one I want to talk about small talk. I've

(01:12:37):
been in so many situations where someone walks past me
here in the States and go like, hey, how are
you doing today? And then they just keep walking that's
me and I'm like, oh, I'm doing good, and then
it's like okay, bye. I don't know. It's just sometimes
people here ask you how you are and then they
just keep walking.

Speaker 4 (01:12:59):
They don't want to know. No, you're right. You remember
the time I've told the story many times and a
cashier called me on it, absolutely called me on it.
I was like, hey, how are you? And apparently she
was not having a good day. She goes, do you
really want to know? And I said, I'm just making
You're right, don't I don't want to know. I'm kind
of I got a texture on this too. She has

(01:13:19):
no accent. I know she's faking. I don't think she's
from South Africa. I've never heard anybody from South Africa,
white or black, that had zero accent.

Speaker 2 (01:13:29):
I think I think the younger kids, it's not as strong.
She was pretty young, she looked early twenties.

Speaker 4 (01:13:35):
I would say she would have to be more on
the British side. I was wrong. There's no way she'd
be Afrikaan and have so little Nig's British. Now the
Afrikaans are right, any of they told like these, Yeah, okay,
you know the budgets is it's really thick.

Speaker 2 (01:13:49):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:13:50):
Now a couple of things.

Speaker 5 (01:13:52):
I know some restaurants are now letting you pay the
bill in front of them, pro that, but some they're starting.

Speaker 7 (01:13:57):
To He's still walking away with mine.

Speaker 4 (01:13:59):
I've never liked that. Never write your number down? Then
what right?

Speaker 7 (01:14:05):
Yeah, next thing, you know, bread dragging bread.

Speaker 4 (01:14:09):
Yeah, you see a lot of restaurants which I think
we like that are bringing the pad to the table.
We just inserted there, we put the tip in there,
and then we get it back. Yeah, but you're right,
there's still a lot of them when they go off
of that card and they're gone. Yeah. Now the price
tag thing.

Speaker 5 (01:14:22):
I wouldn't mind that. It's like, okay, what you're actually
going to pay? We've included tax and everything.

Speaker 4 (01:14:28):
Point on the fake South African on that, yeah, that
fakes for South Africa.

Speaker 2 (01:14:32):
Made a good point of that. And then the hey,
how's it going? How's it going?

Speaker 7 (01:14:36):
Yeah, we ask how are you?

Speaker 4 (01:14:38):
I don't know you, but I really don't know how
you are. It's so dishonest you don't.

Speaker 2 (01:14:42):
Want to you knowing though it's it's understood. I don't
really mean how are you doing?

Speaker 4 (01:14:47):
It's just like high that's hey, it's more of just
a hey. I usually go there morning having a good day. Yeah,
what about this? When you're getting too far away and
this happens to me a lot here, Hey, how are you?
I'm good. How about you? And I'm like, I'm away
now you know? Do I now go back up? Doing great? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
You I have started?

Speaker 4 (01:15:06):
Where does it stop? I'm here? That's half the battle.

Speaker 2 (01:15:10):
Yea working hard or hardly working?

Speaker 4 (01:15:15):
Yeah? How about the weather? You got a cold?

Speaker 6 (01:15:18):
One?

Speaker 11 (01:15:20):
I've got.

Speaker 4 (01:15:20):
We've covered what you know?

Speaker 13 (01:15:21):
Good.

Speaker 4 (01:15:22):
We've never figured out to get answer to that. That's
why I got rid of it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:24):
I've started responding. If people say how's it going, I say,
I just say hello. I just say hello back. That's
what they're really saying.

Speaker 4 (01:15:32):
Do you wave like that? Hell? Tell me you don't
do that? No wonder you're making the heart sound with
your hands.

Speaker 2 (01:15:36):
Well I don't like you.

Speaker 7 (01:15:39):
I don't either.

Speaker 2 (01:15:40):
Okay, Hell, then I got to check my testos. But
when people to say how's it going, I am generally
saying hello. I don't say how are you back? I
just say hello, because that's what they're actually saying.

Speaker 4 (01:15:50):
Well, they think you're weird, because that's.

Speaker 2 (01:15:52):
Well, join the club. Everybody does great, Okay, it's the
large club.

Speaker 4 (01:15:57):
The American flag not exclusive at all. I go ahead.
The American flag thing. She just got to get over that.
In America, I was gonna say.

Speaker 5 (01:16:05):
My built in response sometimes is not what they say
because you know, you don't really pay attention, you know, like, uh.

Speaker 4 (01:16:11):
Good morning, you're doing good. You know, it's like, oh wow,
I just never don't come back like that.

Speaker 5 (01:16:18):
When I was checking into hotels or checking out, they're
like to travel safely, like you too.

Speaker 4 (01:16:24):

Brian Reagan did the bid on that, when Brian Reagan
did that monologue on.

lot of you are doing that. So all right, so
as we start the hour, Andy Andrews will be with
us next hour. Let me let me deal with the text.
A question about this weekend Panama City Man Church conference. Rick,

(01:18:22):
I need to clear my conscience. Our men's group is
from a place in I can't even pronounce that where
it's from, Central Hatchie, Central Hatchie. Anyway, we're coming to
the Panama City Man Church this weekend, but we're turning
it into a couple's retreat. Easy, all right, here we

(01:18:45):
go this This next line's key. The men will attend
the conference, oh okay, and the ladies will be doing
their own thing. Okay, But where my conviction is getting
to me? On this? Does this make us look like
WB's wife bringers? Please help me with this should I
be excited and feel okay or should I be asking

(01:19:08):
for forgiveness. We're looking forward to the conference and meeting
all you guys. You're clear. No, if you guys are
using the weekend because you know you'll be at the
conference on Friday night and half a day's Saturday, if
you're turning it into a trip to Panama City with
your wives, they're gonna do their own thing while the
men are doing the conference. You're clear. That's that's not

(01:19:31):
a w B at all. Yeah, yeah, No, that's that's great.
That's you going to the conference guilt free. Uh, and
they're getting to do their thing. And so no, you
are one hundred percent clear on that. So I wouldn't
think another thought about that. Matter of fact, you'll come
back fired up right now. Now your travel experience is
going to be different than if it was just the
guys going.

Speaker 2 (01:19:50):
You'll have help driving, right, So, but.

Speaker 4 (01:19:53):
You're gonna you're gonna be fine that that that'll be,
that'll be okay.

Speaker 12 (01:19:57):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:19:58):
Now, you know there could be a little bit of hey,
we wanted to hang a little bit longer, you know,
with the guys and the lobby cutting up. But now
we're getting pressured that they're ready to go eat somewhere. Hey,
we want y'all back at a certain time. Now, you
could deal with some of that, but as far as
you the way you'll be seen by the men at

(01:20:18):
the conference, you will not be seen as WB's now
totally clear. Yeah, yeah, Now I have had a few
And you remember in the past, Yeah, where men have
brought their wives to men's events. Now that that has
happened there, and when you're up there speaking, you're scanning
the room and you spot them, it's a weird feeling,

(01:20:39):
it really is. Yeah, you go, that's a fight looking guy.
Than Yeah, and you remember the one time it happened
that at Grittern that time, Oh yeah, And the guy
asked me if I thought it would be awkward that
his wife would be the only woman at a conference
for men, And I just only had one concern, and

(01:21:00):
I said, well, I think that'll be fine. I said,
but now it could be awkward if she and Charles
Billingsley have the same outfit. Went, you know, women, women
hate that. Yeah, so when you wear the same thing,
that's only that would be the only thing to be
concerned about.

Speaker 5 (01:21:14):
Okay, So let's also the the vox seats, the ticket
holders that were broke down yesterday.

Speaker 4 (01:21:19):
Oh yeah, what's that day? Uh?

Speaker 5 (01:21:21):
He sent me a picture of them on the interstate
around dinner time. They had had to go all the
way back, get a trailer, get the car on the trailer.
It looks like they said they got home about nine
forty five last night, and appears it appears to be
they're going to have to replace the alternator. We called
that and anyway, that's just a quick update on that.

(01:21:41):
But when he told me his day, oh no, we
got to go back here and then got to go
you got to go back to Scott's bor then guts
and pick this up and come back.

Speaker 4 (01:21:48):
And I'm like, oh, that's racious.

Speaker 8 (01:21:49):
What a day.

Speaker 2 (01:21:50):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (01:21:51):
So there we go. So that was a that was
a tough day. But it was the alternator. That's what
the texts. Okay, yeah, okay, all right, so let's let's
get in to this next thing and let's get it resolved, okay,
because that way we kind of know how to proceed.
When we started the Rick Burgess Show, we were given
a clean slate to keep whatever we wanted to keep

(01:22:14):
from you know, things that we all contributed and also
to end anything we wanted to end. Okay, some things
that had run their course. Clean slate, Yeah, you know,
a little bit of the old, a little bit of
the new.

Speaker 6 (01:22:28):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:22:28):
Hey, you know like like things that you know, we
were saying, that's retired and that's gone. Okay, and you know,
like I said earlier, characters that we all did as
individuals certainly still can do those and the ones that
are worthy will continue to do and have and all that.
But we have a clean slate, and there are some
things that you know, the end date from the thirty

(01:22:52):
one years of Rick and Bubba. It's just over. And
that's fine. It served its purpose. It was fantastic. We
loved it, but but it's not carried into the new project.
Read across America. Okay, So Read across America is is now.
We we have it on the table there.

Speaker 18 (01:23:12):
It is. Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:23:13):
There's an attitude that it is over.

Speaker 12 (01:23:17):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:23:18):
There were a number of years of that and it's
tied to the the Rick and Bubba days too much
and it doesn't belong in the new. There are others
that are like, well, it's a Rick is the one
who read the story. He's still here. Why why won't

(01:23:41):
y'all just continue to do it. The teachers and the
kids love it, So we're going to I guess, I
mean when when you when you think about it, I
think that what we can do is we can take
it to you know, to our you know, our new
found big box. Verdict. Third is putting on his wig,

(01:24:04):
his look at that wig, putting on his robe, getting
out his his gabbl and Andy, there we go. We're
not adjourn. Start. We should be in session. It's going.
It is adjourned starting now, not adjourned. It should be.

Speaker 7 (01:24:20):
It should be all right, adjourn you and I adjourn.

Speaker 4 (01:24:25):
That's begin they're using. You're using that wrong. You're using
you're using that wrong. Okay, yeah, court is in session.
All right. So what we need we need witnesses. Okay,
Now here's what I was saying. We can do. We
can do it. Wonder few ways we can come back
and get on the phones. Just fill them up with

(01:24:48):
people who are pro are against, and hear them. We
could just do two people, one who's for, one who's against.
They plead the case. We we as the jury, make
our vote the judge. Then here's the verdict.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
A pool of witnesses might be good.

Speaker 4 (01:25:04):
Okay, thank you. So so you don't have to hit
that every time. So yeah, the texts are already flying in.
So yeah, so why don't we do this, Why don't
we fill up the phones with anybody who wants to
be witnesses. Now, we need witnesses that are four keeping
read across America. And then you make your case on wine,

(01:25:27):
and then we have to those be for those that
say I'm against it, don't want it. Okay, we need
a little bit of both. So the number is eight
eight eight, the number six big vox. So we'll come back.
We'll hear from witnesses, Adam you you'll you'll have to
rule on you know, whether they're you know, if you
need to do anything you do because I know you're

(01:25:47):
dying too all over right, yeah, and then we and
then we will as the jury will hear the case
be made four and against, and then we will we
will give our vote and then we'll have a verdict
and that'll be it. Okay, okay, you all know my vote.

Speaker 5 (01:26:06):
Well, yeah, we're raising our breath. Will you please, I
guess you're against kids, Will.

Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
You please please think of the children. Will you please listen.
So somebody, somebody says they have a court day tomorrow.
All right, So if you want to weigh in on
this rid across America, make your case for it, make
your case against it. We need witnesses now at eight

(01:26:31):
eight eight six, big box, and we'll have court next.

Speaker 3 (01:26:37):

you to Reliefactor dot com? All natural if you're dealing
with the inflammation. If that's the root of the problem
and the pain you're struggling with, the relief factor is
the all natural option. We love this product and been

(01:27:25):
taking it now for a while, and boy, can really
really see the difference on taking it and then the
times that you forget. And this could be the solution.
Here's the good news. If this is the solution, it
will get rid of it forever. Now. It's going to
take longer to do it because going down to the
foundation of the problem, it's not gonna mask pain like
the over the counter stuff, but it's going to go

(01:27:46):
to the root of the problem. We're getting great, great
emails Springfield, Illinois, Nancy. She listens to us on the
tune in app She said, I've been in discomfort for
some time with arthritis and my hip as well as
in both hands. I was searching for something to help
stop the pain. Tried motrin, I tried ourthritis creams. I
tried you know, rubbing that on the areas that hurt.

(01:28:08):
No avail. After hearing about the three week quick Start
pack on the show, I've been using Relief Factor now
since early January, and I have felt a huge difference
in the pain level. That's good news. I can walk
without any pain whatsoever. My fingers are working better. I
don't have that gouging pain going up my arms. Thank
you for the product. It really does work, and the

(01:28:30):
good news is it's doing it naturally. So get yours

called one eight hundred and four relief or just check
Rick Burgess Show dot com under sponsors. All right, so
we have the witnesses read across America. What we're here
is the case is, does this make it into the
new show or is it something that is forever retired?

(01:28:53):
And we got people who will make a case for
keeping it, and people will make a case against it.
We the jury will give our conclusion and then the
judge will rule.

Speaker 2 (01:29:03):
Adler, Okay, all right, court is in recess. Playball.

Speaker 8 (01:29:07):
No we're not. We're not.

Speaker 4 (01:29:09):
We're not in recess. We're now in court.

Speaker 8 (01:29:11):
Is in order.

Speaker 7 (01:29:13):
Let's play recess begins, Judge.

Speaker 4 (01:29:17):
The lawyer would like to bring to the to the jury. Lisa, Lisa,
you're making a case to keep it.

Speaker 14 (01:29:24):
Go ahead, Hey, listen, you you've got to keep it.
It is a life lesson the first time I ever
heard it, I was just kind of doing a dead
end job, well not a dead end, but just in
an office. And my parents had always told me, you're
a natural born salesperson. You've got to be a salesperson.
And that motivated me to go out and get into sales.

(01:29:48):
And now I am so happy.

Speaker 8 (01:29:50):
Wow.

Speaker 14 (01:29:50):
And it's not just for salespeople, it is also for
perseverance in life. I mean, the way Rick explains it
about how Sam I am forgives up, I mean, he
just he makes it so real and it's such a
life lesson whether you're in sales or just trying to
get through your day, you got to keep it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:09):
Wow, admissible.

Speaker 4 (01:30:11):
I guess her argument is it's not just about kids
and all that. Right, I'm hearing motivation. Motivate her, never
give up.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:30:19):
We would also like to call in witness Tom, who's
done with it? Tom? Make your case. I'm done with it.
It's run its course, you did great with it. I
never did like green eggs and ham as a kid
and never had it it wor stride anyway, So I'm like,
what is green eggs and ham?

Speaker 14 (01:30:39):
You know?

Speaker 7 (01:30:40):
Black aam but I never had green eggs, So.

Speaker 4 (01:30:43):
I'm just done with it. Okay, I thought there really
were green eggs. So Tom, Tom doesn't want to keep it.
He really makes no other case. I think he's just
done with it, like green eggs and never liked it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:57):
Objection Grumpy.

Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
Deborah in uh in Jacksonville. She would like to be
a witness on keeping it. Oh, Deborah, go ahead.

Speaker 19 (01:31:08):
Yes, I think that reading is interval to children and
their their their development and I and nothing's better than
Doctor Seuss and green aches and Ham, So I think
you'all should keep it. It's a great books, and you
guys think it interesting for the children and the adults listen,
so keep it please.

Speaker 4 (01:31:29):
Okay, she's for the kids, but saying it's also I
don't school government. Yeah, great gardens. Looking discussion. She's supposed
to be engaging the witnesses.

Speaker 7 (01:31:39):
Jackson confrontational badgering a witness.

Speaker 4 (01:31:43):
Uh if y'all could see that, he's got his wig
on and everything.

Speaker 2 (01:31:47):
And I got to give that lady the props. He
had a clear case of someone think of the children.

Speaker 4 (01:31:51):
Right right now, guys, I'm noticing a trend. Two women
for it, one dude against it. Here is here's another
witness for against it is the name clip Cliff Clip
all right, try Cliff c l I F F Cliff
all right, no records.

Speaker 17 (01:32:11):
It's like something else. I heard a generation last twenty
five years. We're in a new generation. We've opened a
new chapter.

Speaker 4 (01:32:17):
We need to get rid of it.

Speaker 17 (01:32:18):
It doesn't matter whether the kids like or not. Everything
about the Rick Burger Show is all new and all
new and exciting and all different things. Let's get rid
of it. Let's replace it with something new.

Speaker 4 (01:32:28):
All right, he said, too tied to the past. Uh,
the he's on that next you're with them, and he
says to him, to him, it's running court.

Speaker 2 (01:32:37):
Thank you, Clip, Clip made a good fool.

Speaker 4 (01:32:39):
You thought somebody's name was Cliff. I remember his names.
It was already in there, and I think that means
it was you or you And I know what, I
don't think somebody's name's Clip. Thanks for calling. He put
it in there, Well he did, Yeah, put it in there, Rember.
I'm good to hear from Clip. He said he's done.

(01:33:00):
But also, we're going to do this because right now
we have two women want to keep it, two men
do not. Here's Carl that is going to make a
case to keep it, and he's a dude, so I
think we need his perspective. All right, so far we
haven't heard from a guy who wants to keep it.

Speaker 8 (01:33:16):
Carl, go ahead, Well, with the state of our school system,
I believe the children are not able to read at
their actual grade level, and their mathematics scores are down too.
But we're not going into math. We're talking about reading,
and there's not a fifteen year old kid that can read.
Curse it, So let's keep it.

Speaker 4 (01:33:38):
For the state of the educational system. That was Carlson
let's call Rick in to say it.

Speaker 11 (01:33:45):
DS, and we give you.

Speaker 4 (01:33:49):
There are teachers that taught me that are streaming, screaming
at the TV, screaming at the radio, streaming at their phone.
That's happened Rick. All right, So, if I remember correctly,
Lisa made the case that it motivated her to leave
a dead end job, and she was an adult. It
became a salesperson, very success. Then we had we had

(01:34:12):
tom It said look, I'm just tired of it. I'm
done with it. Then we had any thought there actually
were green eggs and now yeah. Then another woman said
it's good for the kids, but also and we make it,
we make it entertaining, even for the adults. And then
we had another we had Cliff who said it's too

(01:34:33):
tied to the old I thought, we're on that next.
I think it should be replaced with something else or
just not be part of the new thing and the books.
And then at the end Carl says, the state of
the education system demands that you keep working to help
children read. And then Greg points out, you sure Rick's
a guy for that job, And what a what a

(01:34:54):
valid point from fellow juror.

Speaker 2 (01:34:57):
I'm seeing a comment on YouTube and on the chat
text or the texters whatever, saying I am the read
across America is the reason I am married to my husband.

Speaker 7 (01:35:06):
I don't know if that's the same person, but that's.

Speaker 4 (01:35:07):
A weird way to meet somebody. Here we go, you know,
I'm singing on alone Green Eggs.

Speaker 8 (01:35:17):
One.

Speaker 4 (01:35:23):
What is a guy?

Speaker 17 (01:35:25):
Sam?

Speaker 4 (01:35:29):
You may think you don't like me, but you do
Jackson Greggs being a hand. Try me and you'll see
when we come back. The jury takes all this information,
we will give our opinion and the judge will accept
our verdict.

Speaker 8 (01:35:45):
Or you will not.

Speaker 4 (01:35:47):
So bottom of the hour, we'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (01:35:52):

been that has been beneficial as well. Speedy is so

(01:36:46):
distraught about it. He's he's left he's left the jury,
he said, where did he go? I mean Andy wanted
some coffee, really, and so Speedy went to get coffee
like with right before the break was almost over.

Speaker 12 (01:36:57):
Me.

Speaker 4 (01:36:57):
Did he lose? Did he lose? He lose? Time?

Speaker 2 (01:36:59):
He did?

Speaker 4 (01:36:59):
He did? All right? So, so so we we have
a judge. Are you ready in there? Yeah? Okay, order
in the court. So there's three jurors, so you know
we will get a majority here and and then you
know you can accept that verdict, right, yeah, I mean,
can you overrule? You are said? You are said you're

(01:37:23):
a partial judge.

Speaker 2 (01:37:24):
I am partial, I will I'm not impartial. I'm a
partial judge.

Speaker 6 (01:37:28):
We do.

Speaker 7 (01:37:29):
We only have two jurors. I generally follow the ruling
of the drum.

Speaker 4 (01:37:36):
I'm sorry. Yeah, that was one of those things where
you lost all concept of time along.

Speaker 5 (01:37:43):
I want to take care of Andy anytime he's here.
That's right, okay, So you know what I have, y'all ruled?

Speaker 4 (01:37:50):
No, we have not? Okay, all right, so let's get
let's get one over with. Let's get one. Let's get
one over with, right, and that of course will be great,
all right, because we know we know where you are
you've actually and giving us your you're ruling. You know,
since it was brought up, we all got to work today.
First of all, everybody knows doctor SEUs was a communist.
Everybody knows that well. I made that look. I just

(01:38:11):
think it's time to move on from it. That's all.
When we used to do it and the kids would
come and sit in here, it was a big deal.
I think over the years it's kind of dropped off
a little bit, and I thought, that's the thing. We
need to move on. But if you do it, you
need to do them little hard hands.

Speaker 5 (01:38:24):
If you do no come on objection, hating, so speedy
all as a person that tries to see the good
and things her fault. I heard a common theme from
the callers that wanted it motivating, happy, never give up, promote.

Speaker 4 (01:38:45):
Reading, interesting, entertaining. For the ones that were against it
was never liked it, done with it, gregged.

Speaker 8 (01:38:53):
My hero.

Speaker 2 (01:38:55):
Was yeah, Greg, I want to have a baby.

Speaker 4 (01:39:00):
Okay. I didn't hear any sou but it is.

Speaker 5 (01:39:04):
I feel like that next generation of Rick Burgess show
listeners just to promote the show. I feel like it's good.
Now do we need to change the book, do we
need to do it like twas the night before Christmas.
We're different characters. I don't know before Christmas, you know
how we do different characters.

Speaker 4 (01:39:20):
I don't know what that looks like.

Speaker 5 (01:39:22):
I'm up for changing the book if we need to,
but I just think it's a great way for us
to get into the schools wherein lots of kids go
home they're talking about Rick Burgess show and the teacher
likes it, and you know, so to me, I say,
we keep it, and now what it looks like we
can change. But I think the overall concept, I say

(01:39:42):
we keep.

Speaker 4 (01:39:44):
Okay, judge anything on that.

Speaker 2 (01:39:47):
I think that's an objection. I don't think that's a
good plan.

Speaker 4 (01:39:50):
Okay, So wow, you really are not You are partial
and very partial, and we can't ask Andy Andrews. I
mean he writes books, of course, he yeah. You know
you think a book is going to be an anti
read across America.

Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
You know, I never like reading the kids is stupid,
so I.

Speaker 4 (01:40:09):
Reading my grandkids all the time he does. Here's where
I am on this, and I really am torn because
I think there have been incredible points made that you
could go either way and be right. And it's one
of those rulings where somebody is not going to be happy.
And we know that every segment that there are people

(01:40:32):
that think it was the greatest segment ever, and then
people saying I didn't get it or I didn't like it.
You never there's never a you never hit one hundred percent,
you know, never ever, Okay, And you have to learn
that and not get analysis paralysis. It's probably one of
the hardest things to do in our line of work
is not to get analysis paralysis. You're hearing so many
voices with so many different opinions. At some point, you

(01:40:53):
just got to go with your gut.

Speaker 2 (01:40:55):
Yeah, reading the comments will hurt your feelings.

Speaker 4 (01:40:58):
Sometimes you just got to go with your gut. Okay.
And as I have said many times and I think
have proven, I don't enjoy making tough decisions. I'm just
willing to do it, okay, for for for the good
of what what what I think is the best thing.
In my opinion, it is the best thing to end it. Oh,

(01:41:18):
I think it. I think it's I think it's run
its course. I think it has it was I think
it had great moments. I think it's gotten to the
point where it's a little forced, and I don't think
it is having the same impact it once did. And
I think you can only I don't feel like there's

(01:41:40):
any what you can change the book and and do
all that. But I think and I and it was
a case that somebody made on the text. When you
look at the attitude of this new endeavor, where we
have a clean slate, the attitude of this new endeavor,
this feels a little too much like the past and

(01:42:02):
it doesn't really fit in the present. So I would
be I would be for ending it. So I guess
one so far next SUDGECT Deanon company, Christmas or not? So, Judge,
do away with phones the majority of the journey matter
of fact, two Burgess votes. Great, great, two Burgess votes.

(01:42:24):
But I think we've proven that Greg and I really
don't agree on very many things that I may change
my opinion. So so the jury would hand to you,
the judge that we we will not continue this on
in the new show.

Speaker 2 (01:42:40):
Order order in the court. I'm about to make I'm
about to make my order in the court. That that's
the order in the court. I said, I'm about to
make my order in the court.

Speaker 4 (01:42:53):
Okay, you're using these phrases wrong. But go ahead, wig, Now.

Speaker 3 (01:42:59):
I have it's.

Speaker 4 (01:43:02):
I read to them, which no one would have thought.
They don't need No one, Frankly or no one would
have ever guessed that.

Speaker 2 (01:43:10):
And because of this, I will continue to love my
children no matter what. And we had some bad attitudes
in the court. We had some badgering of witnesses. We
had just frankly, a badger. I think we just had
a badger on the jury, Greg. But I respect the

(01:43:32):
rule of law. Okay, I respect this this court. And
so my order in the court is sustained, accepted withdrawn,
and I go with the jury read across America is dead.

Speaker 4 (01:43:50):
So it will not of your having it will not
continue show new term hate kids said, and Rick, don't
read good? You disagree with that. I think you read good.

(01:44:18):
That's yeah, you did. This guy's talking about you know
that I don't need to be the face of reading
across America. And he's right about that, Now I did.
I was one of the guy was making the point
how bad education system, and then you were the one
that was going to bring it back. Yeah. I was
looking well, you know, even you know, we're looking for ways.
There's things I think that are evergreen, and then I
think there's things that aren't. And I think sometimes and

(01:44:40):
it felt this way in the thirty one years, and
very very rarely, because I thought I thought we were
always pretty good about saying I think that's run its course.
As much as we loved Turkey Toss and Fatfest, those
things got to where we just weren't really into them anymore.
And it was it was such an undertaking that we
didn't want to do it. And but I do think
sometimes things would keep going, not because we wanted to

(01:45:04):
do it, but because we felt pressured to do it,
and it just became something we did and we never
really even considered should we still be doing this? And
so I think it's been it's been great, and I
think there's other things that that we can do. This one,
I think is just run its course. And and that's
the way I felt. And it felt a little too

(01:45:27):
tied to the past, almost to the point that I
think some people might even be bothered by being part
of the new, you know. So so yeah, so well
that's right, Andrews. And Andrews just said it may be everygream,
but even a pine tree dies at some going, So
that's true. All right, So there it is the ruling.

(01:45:48):
I need to get a new liner to ken Osborn
real quick.

Speaker 3 (01:46:00):
Is the Ric Burchers show. Only in America? Could these

(01:46:22):
four men do this for a living God bless America.
This is the Ric Buss Show.

Speaker 4 (01:46:31):
By the way, I have just seen brilliance on the
text line. Absolute brilliance. And I think you are spot
on person whose phone number we have, but we don't
know who you are. This. You know, we were talking
about needing and wanting to do in the new endeavor

(01:46:52):
more content on the YouTube channel that is outside of
the daily archives, and somebody said, this is a perfect
opportunity like you did with Tales from the camp House. Yes,
it doesn't belong as a segment in the middle of
a daily show, but it would be perfect for the
added content on the YouTube channel, and then teachers and

(01:47:13):
people who love it go get it on their own
and that way, and that way. The people who say, well,
I had to turn the show off because I don't
like this, they never have to do that, and you
end up making it available to the people who actually
want to use it. That right there, that's brilliant.

Speaker 13 (01:47:31):
I like it.

Speaker 4 (01:47:31):
That's brilliant. It would it would take all of eight
minutes for me to sit down shoot it and Addler
put it on the YouTube too. Greg and I have
to sit on the rug like we're kids.

Speaker 2 (01:47:40):
I've done I've done that a lot. I hate to
be like this, but I've done that a lot. So
there's already that's already there. If you want Rick read
and read, if you want Rick reading Green Eggs and
ham just to Rick reads read across America, it's already there.

Speaker 4 (01:47:54):
So we have tons of those. Yeah, yeah, so that
that that is so really you do have it if
you want it.

Speaker 2 (01:48:00):
Sorry to be that guy right now.

Speaker 4 (01:48:00):
Yeah, you don't have it after the new Yeah there
saw that. Do it now with the with the new
like it's just me sitting there doing it for everybody,
a new version of it, and now they can go
get till till the end. I know you're upside, Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:48:13):
That makes sense. Yeah, I know your upset about Ruby
texting me crying now, that's fine.

Speaker 4 (01:48:16):
But that way you have it, and it's the best
of both worlds. That's the beauty of all these different platforms,
right and and so they they're both distraught.

Speaker 2 (01:48:29):
Eating green Eggs there crying into their Green Eggs and
ham right now, right, but.

Speaker 4 (01:48:33):
That that actually is a good idea. So that's that's
something we could do and even and say it's right
across America. We have it on our YouTube channel today,
go get it. That's okay, that is a great idea.
I'm sorry Ruby, And then and then and then people
are like, you can show it to your kids and
just for something different, also get Speedy to read it. Yes.
So I don't know how you why you're doing that,

(01:48:54):
because you know, at that time he was tribute to
the flag memory general over my show was very like worried.
It's very entertaining, a good flat and then people people
suggested Gary, but I think you know again, we did
a sprinkle Gary. Gary's come out of the gateswinging and
he's delivering Yes, yes, what happened to him in Nashville

(01:49:16):
when when we when we think it's appropriate. I don't
know if he'll ever be appropriate, but it's funny. I
will just say no. I talked to him. I said,
there's some things you don't need to say when you
tell it on the air. But Gary, Gary thought he'd
made some new friends and you probably shouldn't release Gary
into yes, yes, he did so, y'all. I think that

(01:49:40):
was one of the things that I said. I'm not
sure we can say that. I don't think we can.
I don't know that that baby work if that actually
was their name, But I don't know. But he, you know,
Gary is you know, the country mouse goes to the
city and him being in Nashville and decided to go
over to the hip part of Nashville. Oh, probably not
a good idea, got it? I mean? And we was
just sitting there and they came home and said, hey,

(01:50:01):
you mind if we get a picture together? And and so,
uh is this a boys it's time to go? Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,
and uh and they wanted Gary to be part of
their social media campaign and uh, not a great choice.
Oh my gracious, people here, why are people doing grocery

(01:50:23):
pictures again?

Speaker 2 (01:50:24):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (01:50:26):
Nobody nobody called for that.

Speaker 2 (01:50:28):
He looks like he got hit in the head with
a tack hammer.

Speaker 4 (01:50:30):
There's nobody called for that. Nobody called for that. Why
would somebody thrill that out? We didn't even go back
to that. We had to shut it down. By the way,
speaking of hospital though, are you and you know, let's
just let's just call it. Okay, we're all Protestant, okay,
but let's call it anytime something's going on with the pope.
It's kind of we ours out easy. You seek both

(01:50:54):
Pope Francis and Commonia both good. I even saw one
eighty something. Yeah, I even saw one post that says, now,
this was just a post from eighty eight from a
news source, and you never know if it's a legitimate
news source or whatever. They actually put the headline out
because I was trying to find all the stories on

(01:51:14):
it yesterday when I realized that he was in trouble. Uh.
And one of the stories said that he's preparing to die.
Oh man, that he literally is going through that routine.
Now that that does not that's not infracious. Now, double pneumonia,
double pneumonia at eighty eight, both loans. That's not good. Yeah,
which means in our lifetime another pope could be coming in.

(01:51:38):
He looks so swollen, he does, God love, Yeah, that's
all that. That's all that fluid. That fluid. When that
starts happening, it's it's shocking.

Speaker 2 (01:51:49):
Oh wow, a lot of water around like his neck.

Speaker 4 (01:51:52):
Is ye, bless him, lass Lord need la sis, What
are you talking about to get that fluid?

Speaker 12 (01:51:59):
All?

Speaker 2 (01:52:00):
Lasik is an eye surgery surgery.

Speaker 4 (01:52:02):
Lay six, okay, lay sick. I didn't. I didn't. I
had no idea that you were.

Speaker 5 (01:52:08):
You don't have an aging parent? Yeah, yeah, yeah, helps
keep fluid. All understood. Thanks for sharing.

Speaker 4 (01:52:19):
Who knows.

Speaker 2 (01:52:21):
It's good info.

Speaker 4 (01:52:22):
But I mean, you know, anytime there's a turnover to Pope,
you better be watching.

Speaker 6 (01:52:27):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:52:27):
I will say that Francis freaked out a little bit.
I didn't like some of the things. I mean, I
don't speak ill of him, but don't forget he got
in there because the other thn't quit. You know, they
don't just normally quit. I know, mhm. Not that I'm
expert on Pope right, just came out for a study
of the revelation and Daniel, but yeah, I didn't see that. Rick.

(01:52:48):
It's it's serious, No, it is very time I get
some both lungs. Do you remember, it's like sitting there
waiting on the smoke and on that and look that
the Pope is still alive. But I mean it just
they're saying, it's the report is it's it's dangerous to
his age to getting ammonia. Double ammonia. Yeah, both lungs.
That's tough. And and some of the things. The way
they're acting makes me think they don't think he's in

(01:53:10):
good shape.

Speaker 5 (01:53:12):
You're right, if the Vatican is releasing information, that means that, right,
they're saying it doesn't look good.

Speaker 2 (01:53:20):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:53:21):
Now, there were you know, there were some things that
he did and said, and that a lot of uh,
you know, friends and people we know real well that
who are Catholic, they they didn't they didn't like the
direction he was taking things.

Speaker 2 (01:53:33):
So I agree with that.

Speaker 4 (01:53:35):
But so so we'll we'll see how this goes. But
but I mean, when I saw the headline yesterday, I
was like, oh wow, this is I just thought he
wouldn't feeling well. And then I started doing research on
it and I was like, oh wow, this is a
this is legit. Yeah, this there. There could be another
change coming and if not immediately, but soon.

Speaker 2 (01:53:57):
We may be looking for smokes here in the future. Guys.
I know, white white smoke means new new Pope. Black
smoke means no decision is made on the new pot.

Speaker 4 (01:54:07):
You're really ruling on a lot of things there, aren't
you You judge by the way somebody says, if we
cut a fresh video this year and read across America,
I should be in the turtleneck and the tweed jacket
sitting by a fireplace. Now that's that's a good idea.

Speaker 2 (01:54:23):
Now we've got idea.

Speaker 4 (01:54:24):
Now we have ideas. See this we did all needs
to be Let's let's do things it up. Let's let's
find things to work a little bit. So if we
can't make it funnier created more interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:54:34):
You're all seen the videos of the people trying to
kiss the Pope's hand and he like pulls it away
and all this.

Speaker 14 (01:54:39):
Have seen that.

Speaker 4 (01:54:39):
I have seen that. Yeah, yeah, I have seen that.

Speaker 6 (01:54:43):
That.

Speaker 4 (01:54:43):
Well there was just a lot of Yeah, it's kind
of Jeremy so Greg. Yeah, but it's what Now A
lot of people are saying, all right, I'm not going

There you get so Andy has made his way here
from the beautiful Gulf of America. Yes, where you now,
where you reside? Uh, you know, it's hard to get

come come Inland. So this is how much he loves
all of you out there.

Speaker 9 (01:57:53):
Yeah. Yeah, well, and and I love you guys, I
mean you and I talk a lot on the phone. Yes,
but but I haven't been on the show lately, and
so I just haven't been near Birmingham.

Speaker 4 (01:58:06):
Yeah, we're glad you're here. How do you like the
new the new design here?

Speaker 9 (01:58:09):
I love it, I love it, I love it. I
love your your basketball goals.

Speaker 4 (01:58:13):
Saw you shooting in the break there? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:58:15):
Oh yeah, yeah, this is this is awesome. It's a
beautiful location. You've got the lakes as you're coming in,
and of course it makes me wonder, are there fishing
those lakes. That's what I want to urge on my
lakes like that, because I think somebody should put catfish
in those lakes and let little kids fish out of them.

Speaker 4 (01:58:35):
There you go, there, love love to fish. Didn't understand
that even fishing on days you're not catching is a
good thing until I got old enough to have children,
a job, and a mortgage. Yeah, then I realized, Okay,
I see now, yes, oh yeah, yeah, it's just my
you know. Uh But anyway, so Andy, let's let's talk
to the audience. Everything you know is now about new
beginnings and and I know you're very well known. You've

(01:58:58):
you're a New York Times best selling author. How many
total books have you written?

Speaker 9 (01:59:03):
Twenty six?

Speaker 4 (01:59:03):
Twenty six? I can't imagine it. Total books. They're available
at Andy Andrews dot com or wherever you get books.
So tell everybody who you are and what you do
in case they've never known before. Okay, okay, now say
today's my first Andy Andrews experience. Who is this man?

(01:59:24):
What does he do?

Speaker 9 (01:59:25):
Okay? I'm a husband, I'm a dad of two boys,
young men actually twenty two and twenty five now, oh yeah.
And I'm a writer and I'm a teacher. I'm a communicator,
and so I like putting together things. I mean, you know,
my prayer every day as God help me to understand things.

(01:59:48):
You want your people to understand that if they did understand,
they'd live the lives you want them to live, which
means they'd have a relationship with you, and they wouldn't
need to come to the government or to Oprah or
to me even they would home to you. And Lord
give me simple ways to explain complicated things that are
confusing people. And so I have two entities that I

(02:00:08):
I mean, besides the Andy Andrews dot Com, I have
Creating Measurable Results dot com, which is a thing where
I work with companies and coach Alder people.

Speaker 4 (02:00:20):
And that's when you do more. I know, you speak
at conferences sometimes, but when you go to speak, you
mainly do that. Yeah, yeah, gotcha.

Speaker 9 (02:00:26):
And then and then I have Wisdomharbor dot com, which
is my pure love. It's Wisdomharbor dot com is going
into schools and businesses and families and our our our
goal there is to create America's next greatest generation by
creating conversations between adults and young people.

Speaker 4 (02:00:49):
What do we need more of those? You should have
read Greg Exenham. You're right, you really you know Andy's
By the way, Andy's vote on that was surprising. But anyway,
the no, I understand where you're coming from because I
believe now more than ever. And we all talk about this,
we all talk about it, but I know you're a
man of action. We try to be men of action.

(02:01:10):
You know, there's only so long you can identify the problem.
And it has been identified, So now where's the solution? Right?
And so we have all complained, We've all seen it.
It is shocking when you look around in society today.
I think these I'm holding up my phone. I think
these do a lot of wonderful things, and I'm glad
for the technology and the good things that it does.

(02:01:32):
I'm not somebody that says, you know, it's all bad,
because some things are bad about it. There's some really
good things you can do with this. I will tell
you this talking about this, just your ability to be
able to get like you mentioned about God, Hey, I
can't remember where that scripture was. Well, this right here
will get it for you, and then you can remember
where it is. You just simply put in a few

(02:01:53):
things about that scripture and it pops right up. There's
some really good things you can do with this, however,
to wisdom Harbor, which we'll talk more about, you know,
as we go through this time together today, because I'm
really intrigued with this new project. When you called, and
I remember one day we talked a long time about
when you were saying, here's what we're going to try
to do. Is that we all complain that we have

(02:02:14):
a generation that has their nose in the phone. They
don't know how to converse, they don't know how to
have conversations, they don't know how to look you in
the eye, they have no clue how to do a
job interview, they can't walk out a narrative. And we've
all complained about that. But the question is is there
something we can do about that? Yes, there is, and
that's what is kind of what you've taken on.

Speaker 9 (02:02:36):
Yeah, and we and we have got unbelievable We're going
to reveal some results we've had in schools with test
scores and everything, just that at first we didn't know
what was happening because we were like, how can this
stuff translate into better test scores? Because Wisdom Harbor is

(02:02:56):
is a you know, a harbor has many docs, and
so this has twenty twenty five different docs as an audiobookstoc.
I bet you didn't know doc. In other words, doc.
It has all different ways that contributors present material. And
this is in science history, English, all different areas. But

(02:03:19):
the contributors are Grammy winners, comedians, coaches, chefs, and they're
presenting this stuff in ways that is absolutely interesting. Now
think about this, Rick. You guys, when we were growing up,
you know, we would sit at the big table. We
wanted to be adults. We wanted to be adults, and

(02:03:41):
we would sit at the big table and our parents
would say, okay, you can sit here, but if you
make yourself known, you're going to bed. And so my
sister and I would sit there and it would be,
you know, twenty minutes in, we'd look at each other
and we'd realize they've forgotten we're here. Oh yeah, because
they're saying things don't normally hear them say. And so

(02:04:02):
we'd be in the back seat and on a trip
to Grandma's and we would listen to our parents talk,
and we would listen to our dad talk to disparents.
Mom talked to friends. But somewhere along the line that
turned into mom coming in with the adults and say,
I've got the kids in the playroom. I put on
a movie. I told them if they come out, they're
going to bed, and we're going to Grandma's. Will be

(02:04:24):
there in three hours. Here's your headphones, here's the screen.
And so we have two generations of kids who have
grown up without not just having conversations, without even listening
to them. Wow, okay and so and so what these
these topics on Wisdom Harbor? Do they create these six minute,
seven minute little pieces that teachers can play in their

(02:04:46):
classroom and that parents can play before dinner at home,
and they create conversations between adults and children. Because right
now I hear I hear so many parents say my
kids won't talk to me. And I say, how does
that manifest itself?

Speaker 4 (02:05:02):
What do you mean?

Speaker 9 (02:05:02):
And I said, well, I'll say, like, how was school?
It was fine? Okay, Well what happened today?

Speaker 4 (02:05:08):
Nothing?

Speaker 6 (02:05:08):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (02:05:09):
Come on, now you're there for six hours. Something happened, Mom,
nothing happened? Okay, you asked me that every day nothing happened. Okay,
same thing, nothing happened, and so mom can either pursue
it and make the kid madder or she can just
not talk. And so that's what generations have done. And
so we're not watching the same things on TV anymore.
When we grew up, we'd watch Andy Griffith Show, kids

(02:05:31):
like that, adults like that. We would watch Rockford Files,
kids like that, adults like that. Today there's no shows
that kids and parents can watch together with Wisdomharbor dot com,
which is a streaming service twenty seven dollars a year,
and we're putting these in schools and teachers are using them,

(02:05:52):
and you know that you're you got adults and kids
seeing one about World War WI one animals that you
got into dolls saying, hey, do you see that five
hundred thousand cats they imported to the trenches in France
to take your rats in World one? Who knew that?
And so's all these.

Speaker 4 (02:06:12):
Different interesting things to bring them in. Yeah, yeah, all right,
we'll talk more about that. We come back and give
you a chance to win something today too. We'll give
you a little smidge of Wisdom Harbor as part of
our contest today.

Speaker 9 (02:10:09):
During the thirteenth century, Kubla Khan's Mongol clan valued physical
ability above all things. They bet on wrestling matches constantly,
and if you won, people said you were gifted by
the gods. Now, these weren't your modern day matches separated
by weight, class and gender. Anybody could and did wrestle
anyone else, and they'd keep going until one of them

(02:10:31):
hit the floor. This was the environment in which Kudulun competed.
Kutualun was Kubla Khan's niece, and she competed against men
of all shapes and sizes. According to Marco Polo, Kubla
Khan and his brother Kaidu. Koudalun's father desperately wanted to
see Koudalun married, but she refused to do so unless

(02:10:54):
her potential suitor was able to beat her in wrestling.
So she set up a standing offer available to all comers.
Beat her and she'd marry. You lose and you give
her one hundred horses. She died an old lady unmarried
with ten thousand horses.

Speaker 4 (02:11:14):
What true or b s Oh, my goodness, wow.

Speaker 8 (02:11:21):
That you know it all sounds like it's just too fart.

Speaker 4 (02:11:26):
That did not be true.

Speaker 6 (02:11:28):
But when you threw.

Speaker 4 (02:11:29):
Marco Polo in there on me, that kind of threw me.

Speaker 17 (02:11:31):
But you know, what I must say true.

Speaker 4 (02:11:34):
I must say truth, be true.

Speaker 9 (02:11:37):
It is absolutely true, absolutely true.

Speaker 4 (02:11:41):
Really, so nobody can beat her, you know. Interesting, that's
how Sheery and I met.

Speaker 9 (02:11:46):
Really? How many horses does Sheery have?

Speaker 12 (02:11:48):

(02:16:30):
What's that science? Did you say? Science?

Speaker 6 (02:16:33):
All right?

Speaker 4 (02:16:33):
All right, all right, here we go, Jake from Science
Be True or BS.

Speaker 9 (02:16:39):
Sea level is sea level around the world except along
certain longitudinal lines. On certain lines, there is a bump
of water that is twenty seven feet higher than sea level.
This is called the equatorial bulge, and it exists around
the world exactly on the equator. Here's how it happens.

(02:17:01):
On the near side of the Earth, the side facing
the Moon. The gravitational force of the Moon pulls the
ocean's waters toward it, creating one bulge. On the far
side of the Earth, inertia dominates, creating a second bulge.
In this way, the combination of gravity and inertia create
the bulge of water that circles the globe.

Speaker 18 (02:17:24):
Be true or Bs, Oh man, hello, Bs, that is
absolutely true.

Speaker 4 (02:17:41):
So I know what he did. I did the same thing.
There were so many big words I said. He said, Yeah,
tell Jake what he want. Let me see, Jake. I'm checking.
It looks like you want nothing. Nothing.

Speaker 9 (02:17:58):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (02:17:59):
Can I tell you that Andy wanted us to give
the subscription whether they want or lost. And you know
I said, no way, I gotta earn it.

Speaker 9 (02:18:06):
No way, Yeah, no participation trophy.

Speaker 4 (02:18:09):
That's right, Ben in Mississippi. Ben, there's only two categories left.
Be true, or BS, literature are our culture? Which one
do you want?

Speaker 6 (02:18:22):
Well, I'm out of literature, guy, Let's do our culture.

Speaker 4 (02:18:25):
Okay, here we go, No boy, here we go.

Speaker 9 (02:18:29):
In nineteen sixty seven, an unknown singer songwriter named Jim
Crochey was playing at a party in Princeton, New Jersey.
During the evening, he announced he would play an original
song he had written the year before. The small crowd
listening heard a song Croachy called Big Jim, and the
chorus he sang that evening was you don't tug on

(02:18:49):
Batman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't
pull the mask off that old Loan ranger, and you
don't mess around with Jim. At the party that evening
was an eleven year old with his parents. The boy
loved Jim Crochey and especially loved the song Big Jim.
In fact, at the end of the party, the boy
got his dad to ask the singer to sing the
song again, which he did. The boy and the singer

(02:19:11):
shook hands. The boy took one of the singer's brochures
about his mailing list, and that was that until a
couple of weeks later, when the boy wrote the singer
a letter after complimenting Krochey's performance. The boy wrote, if
I may be so bold, I have a suggestion for
your Big Jim song. I think you should change Batman
to Superman. Batman is an ordinary guy while Superman has superpowers.

(02:19:35):
Superman is more popular despite the stupid Batman TV show.
So I think that if you want the song to
be ordinary, keep Batman. But if you want the song
to be super change the words to you don't tug
on Superman's cake. As you already know. Kroachey did indeed
exchange Batman for Superman in the song. A couple of
years later, Coachee's very first national release, Big Jim, became

(02:19:58):
the number one song in a mator. Jim Croachy died
in nineteen seventy three, but it took his widow, Ingrid
several years to go through the boxes of memorabilita Crozy
had saved from his career. In one box, Ingrid found
the letter from the eleven year old boy. She knew
about it. Of course, it was a family story, as
she put it aside to save her eye caught the

(02:20:19):
letter's signature, and something flashed in her brain. The name
had never seemed important to the story, but this one
seemed so familiar. In fact, the eleven year old's name
was the same as the star of a new movie
she had seen the night before. The eleven year old's
name was Christopher Reeve. The movie was Superman, and after

(02:20:40):
making contact with the actor, Ingrid Croachy and he met
on a studio lot in Los Angeles. There, Christopher Reeve
confirmed that He was indeed the kid who had written
mister Crochey long ago before they left. Ingrid asked Christopher
to sign the letter again. He did. He signed to
missus Crochy, this is the best idea I have had,

(02:21:00):
with great respect, Christopher Reeve. Be true or.

Speaker 4 (02:21:04):
Bs and Andy Andrews being b s or be true.

Speaker 6 (02:21:14):
Things I should have picked literature. Wow, I'm gonna say
it's true, be true.

Speaker 9 (02:21:27):
Andy certainly sounds true. It certainly should be true. But
it's b S.

Speaker 4 (02:21:41):
I was like to be honest, be honest. You wanted
to be true, you really want.

Speaker 9 (02:21:50):
Sorry, Sorry, I wrote that last night.

Speaker 4 (02:21:52):
You wrote it last nights. All right, one more than
We're done? All right, Martha Mark. It's only literature. That's
all that's left. I'm sorry. Literature. Okay, So here it is.
This is there, our final contestant. Today, Here we go.

Speaker 9 (02:22:10):
In eighteen ninety seven, a book called The Wreck of
the Titan was written by an author named Morgan Robertson.
Robertson's story was about a very large ship said to
be unsinkable, named the Titan. The Titan hit an iceberg
in the North Atlantic, started to sink, and was found
to not have enough lifeboats for the numerous passengers to survive.

(02:22:34):
The book, again, written in eighteen ninety seven, was published
fifteen years before the sinking of the Titanic in nineteen twelve.
Be true or.

Speaker 8 (02:22:45):
Bs Wow, I'm going to tell be true?

Speaker 4 (02:22:52):
Andy?

Speaker 9 (02:22:54):
You are absolutely right true?

Speaker 4 (02:22:59):
That is spooky. How did that happen? Isn't that weird?
Somebody wrote it and it almost had the same name.
You don't think they Surely nobody would read that book
and name the ship after that after something close. That'd
be too bad. Mojo, that's wow? Ain't all right? Martha?
Here's your choices. Now you've got a subscription one year

really are.

Speaker 9 (02:24:48):
That's that's the beauty of the game. The true ones
seem like they could be false, and the false one
seems like they could be true.

Speaker 9 (02:27:29):
Yeah? And it happen. I'm working on three different books
right now, trying to figure out which one of them
to finish. So but I am, I am working.

Speaker 4 (02:27:37):
I don't think you'll ever hear that sennight. But but
it's kind of like, you know, don't you think there's
things that and you always want to get into the
latter there's things that you can do and even even
provide maybe a nice living. But then there's things you
were born to do.

Speaker 9 (02:27:56):
And that's that's writing. And that's where I don't really
love it. You know, I love having written. I like
being through with it. But anytime I sit down in
front of the computer, there's only fifty things I think
I would rather be doing. And so, but writing is
something I know that God put in me, and so
I know that I have a responsibility to do it.

(02:28:18):
But it's a discipline to me. It's not a real love.

Speaker 4 (02:28:23):
Don't you have to treat it like you just said,
like work, because if it's something you like, well, I'll
get to it when I can or when I feel
like it. Right, we're not like twenty six books, are Yeah,
we're still waiting on the first one, are we? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, So,
and this is unfair. And I know people do this
to songwriters and people do it to actors, and it's

(02:28:46):
so unfair, okay, because I know they're all like children
to you. The books you've written, what is your favorite?
If you didn't know you and you went out to
get one of your books, which one do you think
you would enjoy the most?

Speaker 9 (02:28:59):
Well, the Travelers Gift has sold the most. And that's
the one that good Nor in America said was on
a five book shues your in your lifetime.

Speaker 4 (02:29:07):
That's a big that's a big Accoladeyes, and.

Speaker 9 (02:29:10):
The noticer is probably the favorite of more people, But
my favorite is The Heart Mender. That is my favorite
because of the story. You know, it's a story about
a family. It's a it's a story about German submarines
in the Gulf of of America US catch in the

(02:29:34):
Gulf of America during World War Two when they were
sinking American ships. And this really happened a lot of
people don't know it, but but a German submarine officer
who considered himself a German not a Nazi, ran afoul
of the political officer on the submarine and gets wounded
overboard and actually makes it to shore, where he is

(02:29:56):
found by American war widow who, when she recognizes his uniform,
almost kills him because her husband was killed by the Germans.
But for whatever reason she he says something that makes
her decide to hide him. And the story is about
how they hide in nineteen forty two America and how

(02:30:18):
they do it and why they do it and what
happens because of.

Speaker 4 (02:30:22):
It be true or yes it's true, this is be true. Yeah.
So I was playing the game again now and I
can't remember the number. A good movie, yeah, and the
one that all of those are great but the one
because you can. It's quick, you get and it's a
point that needs to be understood. And we just saw it.

(02:30:43):
I mean we just saw it again with the pandemic
and all the things that went on. And that's of
course the one about the Holocaust, right, how do you
kill eleven million people?

Speaker 12 (02:30:52):
Right?

Speaker 9 (02:30:52):
Which has got to be the worst title for a
book of right any all the.

Speaker 4 (02:30:57):
Time when you pitch that, when they go what's your
what's your next favorite?

Speaker 9 (02:31:02):
But you know, when I was going, I was writing that.
It was a fairly short book. You know, you can
read within thirty minutes. And and so I was writing
at longhand I was writing in on airplanes, and so
I was going into the Orlando airport and the TSA
people opened up my bag right on top I have
written how do you kill eleven and people? And I

(02:31:24):
saw it about the time the lady saw it, and
I was like, wait, wait, wait wait. I'm a I'm
a writer. I'm not a very good one, but I'm
a writer, and you know, believe, but man, the look
on her face when she's out how do you kill
eleven me?

Speaker 4 (02:31:37):
Oh my goodness, I like I'm playing the gaming again.

Speaker 13 (02:31:40):
Be right.

Speaker 4 (02:31:41):
Well, and I'm gonna go ahead and give away the
ending for speedy uh but the uh but well, it's
just what we just learned. How you do it? Did
you lie to Oh? I see what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's not to give away the book, but they shows
you how they did that. They just lied. Get on,
Get on the train. We're not taking you to kill you.
You know, we're going to take you to your family.

(02:32:02):
We're going to take you where the others are. You know,
you just lie to people. That's how you end up
pulling off something. You just don't tell the truth.

Speaker 9 (02:32:10):
And I'd always wanted to write a book that did
not say republican, did not say democrat, didn't say liberal,
didn't say conservative, and yet everybody would agree with it.
And that's what this is. Because if you ask anybody
on the street, do you think politicians should have to
tell the truth or is it okay that they lie
to us? Everybody will say, oh, they should tell the truth.

(02:32:30):
Everybody will say that, even if they're lying about it,
right right, So everybody agrees with that. In fact, it
took years to get the proof that I had done that.
I've got a picture of President Trump holding the book
and a picture of Anderson Cooper holding the book, you know,
like this is our book.

Speaker 4 (02:32:50):
Oh yeah, and because, like you said, that's a topic
we should all agree on. Yeah. Now, what you saw
was the two political parties accused the other of being
the liar, you know. And and so what I would
say is a citizen, I don't want either one of
them dooping us. You know. I can pick my ideology
on what I think is best for taxes and military

(02:33:11):
and size of government. But at the end of it all,
I don't trust any of them.

Speaker 9 (02:33:17):
That's that's exactly right.

Speaker 4 (02:33:18):
And and and they've proven time and time again you can't.

Speaker 9 (02:33:21):
Yeah, And and it's it's a it's a tactic still
being used today obviously.

Speaker 4 (02:33:27):
And and so we just have to you have to
bear down on that, right And and we saw that
though we saw this is the reason why we were
picking things for the new show. What are what are
some themes we want? And one of them was broadcasting
from the real world. We're not going to live anymore
in this fake world that's being created. That isn't true, right,

(02:33:49):
you know, it isn't true. So and great time today
so much it's always a pleasure, All Things Andy Andrews
and Andy Andrews dot Com. Top of the hour. More
of The Rick Burgess Show today, continuing after we come back.

Speaker 3 (02:34:12):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, Big Fox Entertainment, The
Rick Burgers Show. We'll speak on Greg Burgers, Haddie Van Adler,

(02:34:34):
and Rick Burches, Big Fox Entertainment.

Speaker 4 (02:34:48):
We're back, let's go, let's go, brand new hour. Thank
you for being with us today, Speedy, Greg Burgess, any
man had let go? Nobody can you wound out things?

(02:35:15):
And nobody where? And that's about all I can sing
on that one, all right? So uh we start the
reason why I'm the Great Rift. Oh yeah, this is
one of those kinds you never you never get tired
of this one. Those of you that are watching on
YouTube were playing Sweet Emotion from Arismith.

Speaker 2 (02:35:32):
Sweet that that era.

Speaker 4 (02:35:35):
Oh and I understand why the eighties care looks like
a lady. I get all that and go and it's
a rebirth through their careers. But you go back back
then when you had a little bit of stink on.

Speaker 3 (02:35:44):
It, Greg, did you.

Speaker 4 (02:35:48):
I'm playing perfect? It ain't tem perfect. It's got a
little think on little grit. Okay, little stink on it.

Speaker 2 (02:35:53):
Yeah, it makes you make a face.

Speaker 4 (02:35:55):
Yeah, while you're like a s little thing, you buddy,
that's the whole point Adler I had. I had just
allowed you to hang with Greg at a normal pace,
and now I'll have to cut you back again. It's
a great song. I think Sweet Emotion one of the
greatest rock songs of all time. Agreed, absolutely, And I

(02:36:16):
prefer it over dream On about about chipplewet Stone. Don't
like it? You do like that? If you don't like that,
you might as well just leave about.

Speaker 13 (02:36:26):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (02:36:26):
Can I be honest, I'm about to disappoint you big time.
I don't know that song you do? If you pull
it up? You know what is it called? Again? The
chorus of Chipple wet Stone? I assume that's the name
of the of the sure.

Speaker 5 (02:36:37):
Yeah, sweet Emotion and dream On it's two different moods,
and so it's hard to say I like this one.

Speaker 4 (02:36:43):
But if you tell me, but if you said to me,
which one of those has a more burn factor, I
would say I dream On When I could burn out
on it, I'll never burn out on Sweet Emotion.

Speaker 2 (02:36:55):
Here's a quick sample of us.

Speaker 4 (02:36:56):
Where is it?

Speaker 12 (02:36:57):
Is it?

Speaker 4 (02:36:57):
Here quick, he's gonna acting lack of pre madon, No
wonder you were mad at?

Speaker 9 (02:37:13):
That was real?

Speaker 4 (02:37:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:37:15):
Where are you?

Speaker 4 (02:37:15):
Added on Aerosmith.

Speaker 2 (02:37:17):
Dreamond was the first song. The second song I stole
online illegally downloaded was a.

Speaker 4 (02:37:23):
Napster you stole it? Yeah, Stephen Tywer Tyler won't tour
again despite doing a charity concert with X Guns and
Roses drum. Uh. Now, I didn't realize he's no, it's
not him, it's Matt som Oh yeah, that's the second
did they kick came out to Yes, Okay, I didn't

(02:37:45):
know he was. He was the one that took over
for He also played in the college. Just yeah, useless information.
All right, right again Greg, So anyway, but Steven Tyler
is going to be there for for his charity event
whatever it is. But this is no indication that he
can go on the road anymore. So they had to

(02:38:05):
cancel the man so he was seventy something. He said
it was a really big moment for him because he
hurt himself really bad. He recently performed at the jam.
Oh wait a minute, Oh, this is a viewing party. Okay,
that's what it was. I'm sorry, it's not so it
says here Adler, you you were talking about when they

(02:38:27):
had the all these different bands trying to come in,
but there was one called Jam for Jenny. Jenny got
a Grammy Awards viewing party which benefits the charity Janey's Fund. Okay,
after he injured his larynix. Okay, I see. So apparently
Matt was invited to play drums on all this, but

(02:38:47):
he says he's not going to tour again. He said,
I have to explain this to people. Steven Tyler cannot
put himself under the rigors of doing a full worldwide
tour because it's a lot of pressure in if you're
not a singer, you wouldn't understand what singers have to
go through. He's seventy seven years old and he's a perfectionist.

(02:39:08):
I'm sure I've ever noticed that, and that's kind of
what I like about, right, And if he doesn't sing correctly,
it bothers him. So his lyrinics is not in his
style of singing. Because what he's saying, no, I'll say this,
we none of us, none of us sing. I mean
we sing, but no one cares if we sing. But

(02:39:29):
what I'm saying is we all though, understand about constantly
worrying about your voice working constantly. Imagine, you know, it's
a lot easier to be well. I can talk, but
I can't sing. Imagine if you had to sing and
you're constantly worrying about I can't get sick. I got
to get enough rest. I got to do this, you know.
And a lot of them, you know, when during the

(02:39:51):
times when they would you know, be not do that,
they would party the whole time and they could just
pull it off when they were younger, But as they
started getting older, they realized, hey, we've damaged our voices
and we really there's certain things we have to do
or we're not going to be able to perform. He said.
Now he's at the point where there's no way he
could do multiple shows back to back and all that. No,
I don't. I don't know how some of them do it.

(02:40:11):
I really don't. I'm gonna disappoint y'all.

Speaker 5 (02:40:14):
When we went backstage at the Grammys, here we go,
Aerosmith was doing a sound check, and we went in
the auditorium. It was empty, and we sat down and yeah,
and I can't even remember what he did.

Speaker 4 (02:40:24):
You appreciate it, but I appreciate it. After a while
down one, I was like, yes, yeah, it's Aerosmith. I
know it's just them and they were just jamming. Did
y'all not have an appreciation for Aerosmith and their body
was going to disappoint you? Well you did, you really.

Speaker 2 (02:40:44):
Did, speaking to disappointments and lead singers and having trouble
with their voice. By the way, Telcy Gabbard and airs
Steven Tyler get their hair done at the same place.
I think they get their hair streaked at the same place.
So speaking to this woman, I drove to Atlanta last

(02:41:05):
Wednesday for a concert, pulled up to the venue at
seven fifteen and got an email saying the concert was canceled.

Speaker 4 (02:41:13):
Things happen. Wait a minute, why did these things happen?

Speaker 7 (02:41:17):
It took so much pre I bought those tickets seven
months ago.

Speaker 4 (02:41:21):
Why did they wait till just then?

Speaker 2 (02:41:23):
The show was supposed to The show was supposed to
start at seven point thirty.

Speaker 7 (02:41:28):
The email got sent at seven fifteen.

Speaker 2 (02:41:30):
No way, you're not kidding at all of the amount
of homework and intricacies and watching kids and dropping kids
like I worked all day, picked up my kids, dropped
one kid in one place, dropped one kid in another
organized Okay, Aaron, your mom can watch this giry. Okay, Aaron,
you can forget this kid then, okay, And then I

(02:41:50):
get I get to see the kids. I don't even
go a whole day without missing the kids. And I
was going to drive to the concert, and I was
going to watch the concert, and I was going to
drive back here.

Speaker 7 (02:41:57):
I was going to sleep either.

Speaker 2 (02:41:58):
In my van or on the cow and starting down
to a sweet man.

Speaker 7 (02:42:01):

Okay, Okay, who let you down? Because here's one thing
you did get to do. You did get to drive
over there and back.

Speaker 2 (02:42:27):
I did drove there, drove back, texted Aaron. Because of
the time change with Atlanta, it actually works out. You
actually get a little more time on. So I got
back to my house at nine o'clock and just slept
in my bed that night. Well, by the way, it
was raining. It was raining hard, Atlanta in the rain

I pull up to the venue. You know, I'm four
minutes from the venue, so I'm like, I might as
well look at the billboard.

Speaker 7 (02:44:06):
So I pull up to the venue. There's a whole
bunch of probably fifty year olds. I don't know why,
but I'm.

Speaker 2 (02:44:11):
That's the crowd.

Speaker 4 (02:44:12):
I bet Mark Gartnett was there.

Speaker 7 (02:44:13):
Mark Gartnett was probably disappointed on it, right there, No
doubt he was there.

Speaker 2 (02:44:16):
And I spoke to one guy and he was like, yeah,
we actually saw them in Nashville the night before and
the dude's the lead singer's voice went out during the encore.

Well, how about hum so the encore you mean like
twenty four hours ago?

Have disgusted more like nightmare theater. But that was a
huge disappointment, and I just thank you for let me
tell you all about that.

Speaker 4 (02:44:43):
You should have brought that up earlier so you could
have more therapy, because this helped you in I could
tell I do feel better.

Speaker 7 (02:44:48):
I'm still sad about it, and I'm not yelling.

Speaker 11 (02:44:50):
I'm all on my knee hurts.

Speaker 4 (02:44:51):
Why did I standing?

Speaker 2 (02:44:55):

I mean, you're getting the stuff in the mail. We
all are so so right now. If you're someone who
has an issue with the r S, people that don't
do this, don't don't keep running. Nobody likes a tax evader,
and that's what they're gonna think you are. But then

(02:46:10):
the second part, don't just recklessly start contacting them. Don't
do that either. Uh, why don't you get some help
with TNUSA dot com, slash big Vox. No obligation. This
is free for them to kind of assess the situation.
Let's see where we are. Their attorneys and their strategists

which ones to use. She's helpful and you let them
be your advocate. Okay, so let's get this resolved. They've
already resolved over a billion dollars in tax debt. So
call them at one eight hundred and nine five eight

(02:46:53):
one thousand, or just go to that uurl I just
gave you tn USA dot com slash big vox, or
go to Rick burgesshow dot com under sponsors and you'll
find the link there. All right, so is we're working
our way back. Speaking of mail, there's something really weird
going on in our neighborhood. I told you, I think

(02:47:16):
the person who delivered our mail for a long time
has been replaced or moved or and it's the weirdest.
It's the strangest. The mail is like some days it
seems like that we get mail service, some days we don't.
And I saw something yesterday that was just bizarre. And
this has never been a problem ever. It's a recent problem.

(02:47:37):
And I was, you know, it was time, and you know,
I know we had a federal holiday on Monday, so
I thought, well, you know, they certainly didn't run. Then
no biggie gonna roll on out here at the normal
time or our times very wildly. But we hadn't had
mail yet, so I asked Sherry, I said, hey, do
you check the mail now? I haven't. Okay, I'm gona
go out there check them. In was I'm coming up

(02:47:59):
the driveway, here comes the mail truck. So I think, oh,
it's good timing and uh and and there was something
we needed to go out to. So I was just gonna,
you know, say, hell, are you hear there's something in here?
Handed to them and then let them hand me my mail?
Do you awkward? They stand there?

Speaker 3 (02:48:14):
I did.

Speaker 4 (02:48:15):
And by the way, to add to it, so you
can get the proper visual and pajama pants and uh
and house shoes uh and and and and it's like
a sweatshirt kind of thing. So anyway, all over, yes, sure,
because trainer Sean tried to kill me, but uh so,
and all I want to do is just go to sleep.
Uh But anyway, so when when they the bail person

(02:48:39):
is coming down the road with caution lights on and
looks confused, like doesn't know where they're going or what
they're doing, and they're looking straight ahead. They never even
acknowledged me. I'm there at the top of the driver like.

Speaker 5 (02:48:52):
Hello, they go past, met you bleue right past me.

Speaker 4 (02:48:56):
We got nothing for you pound and I thought pajama
pant and I was ready to I thought to myself,
what are the odds that two full days in an
entire weekend, I have no mail. That's because we had
the federal holiday Monday junk right, and and then and
then she goes past me, still never noticing it's almost
she's passing everybody. She'd just stop anybody's mailbox. Then goes

(02:49:18):
down to my neighbor, pulls in their driveway since they're
kind of confused, does a little turnaround, comes back out,
and I think, well, maybe she's going to come back,
and then she just drives away. And then I did.
I never saw. I was like, what just happened? That's
the window? You still holding the envelope? Like, what what
is this? What just happened? It was the weirdest. I mean,

(02:49:41):
I don't I don't even know how to explain it.
Uh so this was you, Yeah, it was. It was crazy.
He started waving the mail so, uh, I don't know
what's going on, but you might have scared it to death.
The crest. The crest is having we're having some some
mail issue.

Speaker 7 (02:50:00):
I think that's everywhere.

Speaker 2 (02:50:01):
It seems.

Speaker 4 (02:50:02):
Okay, I have a little bit and sweet the male person,
she's sweet as she can be. Oh he's no, it's
not bad. But one day Milly spooked her and so
now she leaves my package. She'll put stuff in the mailbox,
but she leaves my packages at Chandler's because you know
your daughter. You have to go to your daughter's house
at least is there, you know, keep the kids three days.
Oh okay, but anyway, but it's because but Milly's not

(02:50:23):
gonna she does sound bad like she's gonna hurt you,
but she first of all, she's not that big. You
shouldn't have a dog that scares people. Bottom line, here's everybody.
Millie ruins a lot. Yeah, especially when this goes off.
That chump sent there's a package from me over there,
and I got to go get it. But oh what
a bit up. Well, I understand she's not going to
buy it, but she does act like she But you
understand if you don't know that, you don't want to
do it. I'm not saying you're one of those people

(02:50:45):
that have a dog. Everybody didn't know what to do
with them up. But I've been counter dogs like that
before and and but you have to she doesn't. But
they don't look like and there's also different levels of
being afraid of dolls. My wife's afraid of doll that's
true too. Yeah. See, Buddy liked her becuse she would
feed him a milk bone. Evidently is not in the
milk bones. Did you did she try milkbone with the milly?
I don't know. It didn't work. I don't know. Maybe okay,

(02:51:08):
I mean, I'm sorgered that that's on you before taking
that dog again.

Speaker 13 (02:51:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:51:11):
This she does this thing. Anytime a car comes in
or out where she starts spinning in circles. She's chasing
her tail. That's just doing these circles. It's unbelievable. I'm
got to get it on video and let y'all see it, right,
don't believe the speed that she does it in. Is
this her way of dealing with anxiety? I don't know this.
The first star comes in and out even when I leave,
she does it. That almost feels a little bit like
thunderstormish or something like dogs at y'all have no idea

(02:51:34):
how you got some of those, don't you? I had
one like that too. Oh yeah, No, she just doesn't
want a car comes up and down the drave. Yeah,
but that's fine. Just deliver the mail and all that.
Just don't turn you back on that's a joke, all right,
so walk backwards. But anyway, I understand. I'm not mad
about it.

Speaker 5 (02:51:50):
I know you won't do it, and I'm wasting my breath, Rick,
But you could sign up to get an email of
what's in your mail.

Speaker 4 (02:51:55):
Yeah, Mom's all about that, I hear, But what is
what good is it for me to know what I'm
not getting? But but then you'll know there's a problem
if it's you're getting. Look at all the text right now,
everybody's saying they're doing it. Everybody's saying the mail has
something's happened with the mail. Well, you need to be careful.
Last time you got well, my male is good. I
know what my problem is, my stupid dog. If I

(02:52:18):
hadn't brought up if I hadn't brought up the tax
thing just in doing that deal for I would have
I shouldn't have mentioned it. Now I'm gonna gosh, they're
after me again. Now the male people are gonna I'm
gonna be punished again.

Speaker 7 (02:52:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, get revenge.

Speaker 4 (02:52:31):
Just be quiet and just don't care. Don't you care
about things. They'll let you know when you can have
your mail and they'll bring it to you. So up
at least I don't have a dog like Reg. I
could understand if nobody wanted to go to Greg. Yes,
that's the key fact. No one knows whether this dog's

(02:52:54):
coming af from or not. She's mentally ill.

Speaker 2 (02:52:56):
You know that, they don't know she's nice.

Speaker 4 (02:52:58):
Yeah, you just got to get.

Speaker 3 (02:53:01):
This is the Rick Burgess Show. This is the Rick

(02:53:24):
Burgess Show that it is.

Speaker 4 (02:53:27):
Yeah, it is. Thanks for being with us. Having a
blast again today Wednesday. Bible study back today noon since
one o'clock Easter in the second installment in the Study
of the Book of Job. So catch it live or
pick up the archive a little later today are tonight
on your own time. Well, if you were watching on

(02:53:48):
our YouTube channel, if you're one of the tubers, you
saw in the commercial break one Eddie van Adler walk
out of his little apartment that he lives in, Yes,
his little glass cage of emotion, of emotion. He walked
out and he handed off the all access lanyard for

(02:54:10):
this weekend and next weekend. The two man church conferences,
and he handed it to Greg.

Speaker 2 (02:54:17):
Gregory, but he saw it.

Speaker 4 (02:54:18):
Greg, you now have the lanyard and you're taking care
of it yourself. I'm gonna wear this to where over
till we get back Saturday. Okay, I'm about to go
to sleep. Did you think the picture we just got
from the team of all the lanyards that were discovered,
that two of those are the two I I was
thinking the same thing to say, yes, Okay, it's a fact. Okay,

(02:54:39):
it's just sad because you just left them in some
random place. Didn't leave them in some random place. I
went back to the green room before I left, and
someone probably made the mistake of engaging me and made
me and you know, it was like a squirrel running
by and and I do this all the time. I
I just I would just lay things down and honestly
have no memory of ever doing, or pick things up

(02:55:01):
and take you with you.

Speaker 14 (02:55:02):
Not.

Speaker 4 (02:55:03):
Yeah, I've seen that.

Speaker 8 (02:55:05):
Boy.

Speaker 5 (02:55:05):
It's just a pile of them too. I just sent
to you what you want to show. They found where
mood show lanyards. So I think we're good speeding needs one? Well,
that's I mean, the Mergens boys are saved and that's
what that So that's got the band's got to have
something that's probably I got all that.

Speaker 4 (02:55:21):
Well and and you're good and bones Bones was going
to bring me, you know, the one for few freeze.
Look at that. That's how many they found. See one
thought I had to turn it in. I never thought
about leaving mine. I don't know, it's kind of weird. Yeah,
that's all right. You you you know, because you had
to have all access to to get to the exit
that I needed to get to. Yeah, that's right. Well,

(02:55:43):
keeping mind on this too, speedy, But you come from
a different background. You come from the background and you've
been doing this for a long time where you're a
producer slash handler. So you have that mentality that is
the mindless role I play here. You know, and as
my wife has told me many times, you've now become
handler dependent. You can no longer be a solo deal.

(02:56:06):
You know, you you're depending on people making sure you
know where you're going. And she's told me many times
two things. I'm not your brother. I get that from
her a lot. And I'm not your handler. Okay. When
we're here, you know there is no handler okay, And
I'm like, okay, and that's true, but but you get
you know, I've gotten to the point now where I'm like, okay,

(02:56:29):
we're speedy, you know, and so I don't want to
be like that. Where's Where's Bones told me to turn
mine in? But anyway, Bones was going to bring me
that other one. But Bones says, let me know that
he's having a little bit of a sinus infection problem.
And I said, well, look, we have a no let

(02:56:49):
me tell you why we have a no sick people
getting on the plane rule. Okay, well you say, well,
sinus infection. And I went through this with when Sherry
had one back into when we were trying to finish
out the Rick and Bubba show, and you know, we
find ourselves in this in this mode a lot. I
can't be sick. I can't be sick. And so I

(02:57:12):
asked the doctor, I said, is this contagious? You know?
Because you do the thing? Do you need to go
to another room? And although he goes, no, no, no,
you're good, he said, the only thing with a sinus
infection kind of thing is you just don't want to
what's the moisture or the any kind of spit? Yeah, yeah,
thank you, Greg Spray, And he had a much more
scientific word for that. And I'm telling you to do it.

(02:57:34):
I mean I had not even I don't think I
was done with the text, and all of a sudden,
sure goes and it comes, and there's this sneeze and
here and here it comes, you know, and drop it
and then I ended up getting it. So the problem is, yes,
it's a different kind of contagious, but in closed quarters.
I mean we're one sneeze away to all us getting hit.

(02:57:56):
I mean we can't change it.

Speaker 2 (02:57:57):
Yeah, y'all, notice I stay away from you.

Speaker 4 (02:57:59):
You do and siate that. I'm so glad you have
your own little box.

Speaker 2 (02:58:02):
I do too, exactly. I'm hacking and coughing behind this
window all the time. I don't know how y'all do it.

Speaker 4 (02:58:07):
Yeah, you can't just take off every time you have
a scratchy throat either. No, you're right, You're exactly right.

Speaker 7 (02:58:14):
So but sorry, I thought my mic was off right,
but is it?

Speaker 9 (02:58:19):
Never have you ever?

Speaker 4 (02:58:20):
I mean, like I'm looking around, and this is one
of the things we learned from from our dad. Is
he kind of had that mentality. Now, my dad went
too far. He thought you could refuse to be sick,
and then you just wouldn't be. But his deal was like, hey,
there's just no way to be sick. You know that
you can't. I mean that, I'm looking at my schedule

(02:58:40):
and the responsibilities, you know what I see. I don't
see any window to be sick. Yeah. Now there's some
things I can't control, but I mean, I do the
best I can.

Speaker 2 (02:58:48):
I attempted to think, well, you know, Greg, you think warm.
I attempted to think well for about two months. You know,
my voice was horrible.

Speaker 7 (02:58:56):
Y'all heard it on the air.

Speaker 4 (02:58:57):
It was it was bad.

Speaker 2 (02:58:57):
I was miserable for about two months there, and finally
did get to the doctor last week, and uh, I
have a like a blockage in my sinus is so
like this whole side was blocked.

Speaker 4 (02:59:07):
And that's because you need a surgery though, right.

Speaker 7 (02:59:09):
That's because I need surgery.

Speaker 4 (02:59:10):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:59:11):
So it was, you know, don't do what I did.

Speaker 7 (02:59:13):
Don't do what I know.

Speaker 4 (02:59:15):
That's the thing.

Speaker 7 (02:59:15):
I'm like, I'm just My kids have been to the
doctor six times in the last two months.

Speaker 4 (02:59:19):
Anyway, you know, look, I don't know what's going on
with this generation of kids, but they're sick all the time,
all the time. We were never sick like this. They're
sick all the time. And I know there's a lot
of theories on that, and RFK Junior is going to
solve it.

Speaker 6 (02:59:31):
Right.

Speaker 4 (02:59:31):
Here's a couple of I don't know, a couple of
emails here. Okay, hey bird a bird? Would you is
there any way? Is there any way bird you could
say happy birthday to Sarah Grace eighteen years old today
from Big Tate. Done Tate, There Tate, Sarah Grace, have
a great day from John. Hey bird a bird. At

(02:59:55):
least if you won't read this, I hope speed you will.
I really enjoyed the mu music of Miles Morgan yesterday
and and and I and the return of a version
of Keeping a Coaster. I don't recall that we did that.
It was a bumper music or not well, yeah, but
I finally had to do some soul searching. My dream

(03:00:17):
hasn't been to spin the wheel. My dream has not
been to go hunting with y'all. My dream has not
been been to get Speedy to buy me lunch. My dream,
my dream is to get my song torn to shreds
by one baby brother, Greg Burgess. We'll see he's gonna
mess up and it's gonna be good. That's no fun,
said bumper or bust or something. If James can up

(03:00:39):
and Robbie mccordy, I'm McCurdy can make the show. Surely
I can, or at least that's what I thought. I mean,
I mean, hey, maybe I really can't have nothing that's
in the email. I'm bringing my case to the court
one last time and hoping the judge he's using all
the shows, he's gonna be like rules in my favor. Also,

(03:01:01):
i'd love for y'all to do something like a Miles
Morgan or something every other week or so. Artists new artists,
too much, too.

Speaker 2 (03:01:11):
Much booted or bumper was what we were calling that
what it was?

Speaker 4 (03:01:14):
That guy he pour mouth how bad his song was,
and it actually was pretty good. You like it. You
listened to it down the truck. Now this guy, I
haven't listened to this one. Yeah, I'm looking at you,
he says. If you don't, it's still real to me.
Love y'all. The new show is fantastic Old that's smart.
That's smart. He's pushing.

Speaker 2 (03:01:31):
Don't want to hear it.

Speaker 4 (03:01:32):
My band is Riverside rednecks and sucker for a sad song?

Speaker 8 (03:01:38):
Is it?

Speaker 4 (03:01:38):
You do have it? And it says his name is well,
he says, I can can I say his name? I
think so? He says his name is Johnny reid Rich.
That's right. Okay, all right? So are we doing this
from the top? Okay, so we're not going to hear
the whole thing though, I mean three and this is
this is bumper or boot? Is that the new name
for easy?

Speaker 2 (03:02:00):
Bumper means you keep it from bumper music. It means
it's it's gone Riverside right next, let's work on the name.
Maybe just cool with just Riverside.

Speaker 4 (03:02:07):
I'm gonna look at Greg's face this whole time the Riverside.
I'm paying.

Speaker 2 (03:02:20):
Like to laughs.

Speaker 19 (03:02:21):
OK.

Speaker 4 (03:02:22):
You're really a sensitive to that, aren't you.

Speaker 9 (03:02:25):
I've never been tad ship to. I've learned love comes ghost.

Speaker 4 (03:02:37):
Over the years. It's like eahing seems to biing me
since she's been gone. When I turned my radio, I'm ana.

Speaker 21 (03:02:53):
Suck your course side song that's somebody done, it's just
cross I can rely.

Speaker 20 (03:03:07):
At I was shame one love song bad.

Speaker 7 (03:03:22):
She's gone, So I'm a sucking for a sad song.

Speaker 4 (03:03:28):
I gotta tell you that that was pretty good. It
is pretty good.

Speaker 2 (03:03:32):
It's not bad.

Speaker 4 (03:03:33):
That's pretty I mean good. But I've heard a million
I got that. But what I'm saying is, if you
were to put that in the category where it blooms,
does it hold it song with other songs that are
like it's bumper? To me, it sound a little bit
like painting Me in Birmingham a little bit. That's fine,
pain mem it did.

Speaker 2 (03:03:50):
I'm a sucking for a sad song.

Speaker 4 (03:03:54):
Oh wow, yeah, thanks, Now you're always hearing a good song.
You just I'm I'm saying it's not good.

Speaker 7 (03:04:01):
Change your name to Riverside. You might have a shot.
It's frankly Riverside right next. Nobody's gonna take you.

Speaker 2 (03:04:05):
Seriously, We're just go Riverside.

Speaker 4 (03:04:07):
Can I tell you I did not have a problem
with that song at all? Yeah, it's got a good
it's got a good walk on it too. Yeah, or
hates that.

Speaker 2 (03:04:14):
Two laps is fine?

Speaker 4 (03:04:15):
Two laps is fine.

Speaker 6 (03:04:16):
I thought you.

Speaker 4 (03:04:16):
I thought you just a walk song.

Speaker 7 (03:04:18):
Just mentioned that they did to like eight or fifteen seconds.

Speaker 4 (03:04:21):
I would say bumper on that one. Yeah, man, I
would say bumper. I'm sorry you didn't. Is he not
gonna shredd it it?

Speaker 3 (03:04:28):
It's not worth ready, this is the Rick Burgess Show
release the Cracking.

Speaker 7 (03:04:46):
He was sitting there, he's brushing, Hay.

Speaker 4 (03:04:52):
All right, great, thanks, alright, we're back. I thought we
were about to have a positive moment where we we
tell it some guys, they did a good job, they
did a good song. And now you're saying, well, basically
it's just thanked me at Birmingham. Wait, thanks for that.
Not exact, but I will let me clear it up.
I think that that guy was good or the Rednecks whatever,

(03:05:16):
Riverside Rednecks Adler. He's saying, sorry, nobody can pronounce my
last name. Yeah, we tried to go with something that
was easy to remember. They got it fanatically spilled that. Yeah.
I mean it was a good song. It really was.
And there's he's saying thanks, and he said I may
change my name to Johnny Birmingham. And the song that
I apparently ripped off, this guy has got a yeah. No,

(03:05:38):
they and you know I'll tell you what they follow
into that category. I bet if you saw him a
live you'd like him ean better. Okay, you feel bad
about you now I'm wearing it. Have you figured it?
I'm wearing it till Sunday. Okay, all right, So I
will tell you something that it just brought us up.
And I've been mad about this for months, I mean

(03:05:58):
really mad. Yet sometimes things are like I don't really
I wish that would and so, and then there's things
like I gotta do something, I gotta change, I gotta
stand against this or stand whatever. And and I like
these two artists very much. Okay, Dustin Lynch who was
on the Rick and Bubba show years ago when he
was when he was first taken some about cowgirls and

(03:06:21):
angel Yeah, that right, uh, but then I couldn't quit
staring his teeth. But his teeth there the magnific, their magnificent.
Even even Doctor Dudney was embraced. So the he didn't
hear that. Okay, so here is but and I remember

(03:06:45):
the first day I heard it, and it angered me. Okay,
he's angered, he is mad.

Speaker 5 (03:06:51):
He got yeah, look I'm really really made oas called Chevrolet.

Speaker 4 (03:06:56):
Okay, all right. So I was I was riding in
my car and I was listening and I start thinking,
wait a minute, this song sounds crazy familiar, and then
all of a sudden like, wait a minute, this is
drift Away but by Dobie Gray with different lyrics. That
you can't take someone's song and just change the lyrics.

(03:07:17):
I like, I like Dustin Lynch, and I like jelly Roll,
but they can't do this. You at least just do
a cover. What if Jelly Roll and you know somebody
did do a cover? What was his name, Uncle Cracker? Yeah, yes, yeah, version.
It was a good version, but he did not pretend
it was a new song. He just simply covered Dobe
Gray drift Away and did his version of it. Got

(03:07:38):
no problem with that now. Probably since he's done it,
there's no need for somebody else in country music to
do it. But uh, but but jelly Roll and Dustin
Lynch have taken the song instead of drift Away, there
do chevro Let and they just put new lyrics to it.
We can't let that stand. Boy, he's mad. Wow this
is I mean? I asked him, I said, can you
enjoy any second of the song? He does nothing but

(03:08:01):
make me mad. But here's the thing how I get
past it. They're not trying to fool you. They know,
but they don't. They don't ever say anything about it.
Like the purpose. It wouldn't killed him to go, it
would don't be gray. But give him something. I'm sure
they're saying. I know they sent a check. If mc
hammer had to send James and check to the penitentiary now,
then then then they had to send Dobie Gray's estate something. Yeah,

(03:08:24):
I would be whoever wrote the song try to like that.
They just made it up, you know from scratch? Does
that not bother you? They changed the lyrics drift Away.
Have you heard it? Yeah? And you you're okay with it? Well? Yeah,
you know why because it's drift Away. We all like
drift Away. Of course it's snazy. It's already been a

(03:08:46):
hit multiple times over. When jelly Roll comes in, it's like, oh,
and then I look up at Rick and he's disgusted.
I'm listening. Does this before General walked that five K or.

Speaker 7 (03:09:00):
I was in my book with this, It's the same time.

Speaker 2 (03:09:05):
So I had pain pulling up tad time.

Speaker 4 (03:09:09):
You haven't heard this, you gotta let it roll till Jelly.

Speaker 21 (03:09:16):
Roll the full coost time drift Away with different color
guys surprised, She said it through the linos down and
bawling in long stoning it town Ship.

Speaker 4 (03:09:31):
I know what angers happened you to not tempeh because
I drift away. Jelly's coming in. I know, don't drink jelly.

Speaker 1 (03:09:39):
Jelly's coming here. And I half marathon to get ready
for hoe. Okay, right, start down on coffee, right said, here.

Speaker 15 (03:09:50):
We go.

Speaker 4 (03:09:52):
Righting handy, Okay, I can't you just took the and
and you know, right here on Black History Month and
you're just stealing Adobe's song. Here goes white people again

(03:10:14):
and they take a black man's song and they changed
the lyrics.

Speaker 2 (03:10:21):
Mentor Williams, who is a white guy. He recorded nineteen
seventy Adobe Gray made it an international hit in seventy three.

Speaker 4 (03:10:29):
Yeah, because it took a black man to make it
a hit.

Speaker 2 (03:10:31):
It was so the soul rick. I don't know, Abe Gray,
my goodness.

Speaker 4 (03:10:34):
I thank you were probably with me at this concert.
One of the best versions of that, I said. Bon
Jovi really did a version. I don't recall that. Yeah,
it was really good.

Speaker 2 (03:10:42):
I love he's so cool. Bon Jovi is so cool.

Speaker 4 (03:10:45):
It was, I mean, they didn't like they count of acoustic.
Kind of one of those I don't recall, though, I
don't think I was there. You know, or you don't
remember it, or you're still so have We may have
been one of those occasions where I was not allowed
in the cannot so I wondered around the parking lot
with the homeless. Still the concert was open. We put

(03:11:06):
you in the trunk and just see how long you
can ride around there. I remember that you were completely
I was fine all I did not. I enjoyed the quietness.
We got used to it. We forgot you were back there. Yeah, hey,
let's pull over that rick. Can I see you? Yeah?

(03:11:27):
I was like, man, that's just I took a nap.
I don't know why you got badly control. So we've
destroyed today's show. Sorry, I'm sorry. We're gonna get some
bad mark or something.

Speaker 2 (03:11:38):
See Miles Morgan got his yesterday said what are you
gonna do?

Speaker 6 (03:11:40):
You know?

Speaker 4 (03:11:41):
Yeah, my goodness, okay, yah, that's right. Dobe Gray actually
did make a guest appearance in Uncle Cracker's version. You're
right about that. Oh wow, Uncle Cracker in the studio.
He didn't, wouldn't so he dude? Uh, yes, did you smile? Yes,
he did? You made fun that's a really nice guy.
After he left, you made fun of him? No, Yeah,

(03:12:04):
you're thinking about the other guy. Oh, col, would you
say Greg knew there were somebody?

Speaker 13 (03:12:08):
Golly?

Speaker 4 (03:12:09):
But no, I just I just think these two people
are way too talented to do something in my opinion,
that's low hanging free. Yeah, I mean it's Greg. It's
it's the same song with different lyrics.

Speaker 2 (03:12:21):
Well, let's break kid rock will do the same thing too,
all summer long whatever.

Speaker 4 (03:12:26):
Yeah, but didn't he just using a sample from Sweet
Home Alabama? Or it's the whole song Sweet Home Alabama.

Speaker 7 (03:12:30):
So we're all just weird out now, we're all just
doing covers.

Speaker 4 (03:12:33):
We're just weird out. You're right, and we're better than that.
How you feel about it? I don't like it.

Speaker 7 (03:12:40):
I don't know if we are better than that.

Speaker 4 (03:12:42):
I don't like I want to do something. It's too
late now, it's been out for months.

Speaker 3 (03:12:46):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.
