greatest written scenes in TV history, Uh, the two Georgia's Uh,
and I tell Sherry what you told your wife? Baby
you just because you know, my wife brought this up.
She's a little bit to be giving credit for it.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Let's say it that way, Okay, credit she's she should
get some credit for the fact that I'm in seeing
this year and likely now next year too, because of
the as we said yesterday, at this exact time, the
semi Quinn Centennial. Yeah, I had a boy Ricks better
than yesterday was a disaster.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
It was, it was, it was I think we said
it wrong for like ten minutes.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, not even Clo. No, it wouldn't even anything.

Speaker 6 (04:17):
Close the SESQUI was getting in there, semiquista.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
But anyway, you know, the fourth of July is the
day off. You know we're all off.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
You're gonna be off. And I told Sherry, I said,
what you've done. You've invited work Rick to vacation. Rick
at her and I said, if work Rick shows up
at this fireworks Dravagan said he will kill vacation Rick
and uh, sure will yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
So work Rick.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Somewhere around main stage reporting time, I told her, I said, well, enjoy.
I hope you have fun with the day off vacationing Rick,
because uh, he'll be killed around six.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yeah he's done. Yeah, work when the wig goes on,
he's getting work Ri will kill day off vacation Rick.

Speaker 6 (05:02):
Yeah, you're gonna be wearing a powdered wig, so that
will add to the fun of got to do.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
The river dance. I don't know what that was.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yeah, well, I added that I asked him if they
wouldn't mind playing word up as I come on. They
asked me to explain what those lyrics are patriotic, and
I'm still working on that.

Speaker 7 (05:18):
Well, sir, this is a patriotic advantage.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
So what about what about this patriots city air? Like
you just don't you know something like that? Patriots wave
your hands in the air, Like if you get John
Adams to take a burse, hep you out right, Craig,
he could be the whole Oh about this wave your
hands so we see that we are free. Okay.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
I love the fact that some people on the more
conservative side and I want to join them.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Fourth of July is the no King's Day. Yeah. Yeah,
that's when we said no king, we'll take no kings
on the fourth because that's accurate. That's no king king.
We don't need no kings out I need them.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I love when people who are kings are always the
ones that claim that they don't want kings.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
They'll call you a king while they're a king. Yeah right, it's.

Speaker 6 (06:16):
So anyway, while worshiping the government. Yeah, while worshiping the government,
they'll say, no kings. Well, you've made the government, you're God.
So let's let's let's let's really really evaluate ourselves there.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yeah, let's become more like Europe. Oh you mean, where
the government provides everything. Are can't provide everything because you
became dependent on them, okay for to solve every problem
you've ever had, which they can't do and only do
it poorly. Right, Yeah, pass. So So anyway, I hope
it is a good week for everybody. And I know
a lot of you are vacationing this week.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Uh, you know some of you are probably like all
those years, like a lot of us, you know, we
our vacations usually revolve around when we can take vacation
as far as ratings periods and things like that, not
when we would prefer to take vacation.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
So I will tell you we've been stuck on.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Most of the time, you know, taking time when lots
of people do. You know you kind of wish have
you ever found yourself even though we could have never
pulled it off, never ever.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Under any circumstance to pull it off.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
You ever kind of checked out those families like they
kind of run their own business and they homeschool, which
means they can pretty much do anything they want whenever
they want to do it. And you look and they've
got pictures of them like Disney World, and the lines
aren't long. Yeah, and you're like, oh wow, y'all could
just go whenever no one else would. Yeah, you know
you're at the beach when no one's there. How are
you doing all this?

Speaker 2 (07:40):
I will tell you. When it comes to the part.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Of the world where we live, I no longer think
and I'm going to take winter out, but I'm going
to leave all of spring and summer and most of
the fall in. When it comes to the Gulf of America,
especially the popular arts, which is pretty much all of it,

(08:03):
there really is no off season anymore. There really is
no time you go, well, let's go now, won't be
that crowded, right, It's crowded all the time, with the
exception of winter.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Yeah, when I go. It backs off a little bit
in winter.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
But fall people, you know, you know there was a
time when people say the best time to go to
the beach is the fall. Well, everybody's figured that out. Yeah,
they just go in the falls, doesn't matter.

Speaker 7 (08:25):
We used to go at Thanksgiving as a family all
the time. We're like, we figured something.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Out, right, we know something nobody knows.

Speaker 8 (08:33):
It's still warm enough to get out on the sand.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
What is this voice is? I don't know what that
exact they know, we know what people don't know voice. Yeah,
we go the last week of de in the New
Year's Day. Now that in New Year's that that's almost untouchable.
And to be honest, because I mean, I don't care
about getting the ocean anyway. No, you get there.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
You may get a little nippiness at times, but it's
not intolerable. So you go out and play. The kids
play in the sand and have fun. We just don't
swim there for you don't have to wait and lines
at the restaurant. Yes, because because the sweat factors out,
the sand will actually.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Come off of you.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yes, you know it is powdery again. And I like
the way it's cool under your feet. Yes, love that.

Speaker 6 (09:13):
I don't like the beach from like eight fifteen am
until like seven pm.

Speaker 7 (09:19):
I don't like that whole time frame. No sunrise, sunset.
I'm in the rest of the time. This is a
miserable desert doing that's hot.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Hey, you know, if you got those sunbathers, man, they
want to be in it at maximum heat.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Baky Yeah, yeah, we a cookie, you know, terir skinned guy.

Speaker 5 (09:36):
I just no farewell, no, no, no, you know me. Which,
by the way, you know we have one of those
little tripod pop up umbrellas, you know, and so if
you know Terry and I bring you know, little beach chairs,
pop that up.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Whatever. What is it about sand?

Speaker 5 (09:50):
You know, we go to the Pensycola beach to call
you and and and this it We used it the
other day with river and sand still falls out of it.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Well, how could we can't ever get rid of saying?

Speaker 1 (10:01):
I know I'm saying it's like sand, It's like it
grows something. Do you take anything to the beach it
has sand on it to some degree forever?

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, and queen it you bang it? Yeah, including your car.

Speaker 7 (10:12):
Yes, there's still fall pocket of sand from the beach.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah. Is it?

Speaker 7 (10:18):
Is it alive? Is it alive and making more of itself?

Speaker 2 (10:21):
That's what I'm wondering.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
I got a multiply Yeah, I got a tough discussion.
Somebody brought up about this next.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
I have.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
You know, we all have different friends and acquaintances that
are all at all different stages of life. We were
talking a little bit about the beach because it's fourth
of July. A lot of you probably at the beach.
You may even be in a different routine. You may
be off the entire week. A lot of us will
be off, including all of us here on for one day,
for a little three day weekend on Friday.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Loved it?

Speaker 1 (10:51):
The fourth fell on a Friday. Didn't that work nice?
Didn't that work out nice? Because let's be honest, when
you only have one day off and it's stuck out
there in the middle of the week, I hate it.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
You can't do much with it. No, I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
You can't do And then about two o'clock in the
afternoon you start thinking about what now I'm gonna about
to work tomorrow?

Speaker 2 (11:06):
It ruins it. So so anyway, well if I can
get to the fifth So.

Speaker 6 (11:12):
They call that the scaries, by the way, you guys,
are you guys Sunday scaries?

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (11:17):
Yeah, Sunday scaries come when you're like dreading Monday coming Sunday.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
It goes back to that survey.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
You know, the worst part of the vacation is that
last day when you start playing about now I got
to go back, you know, I got to pack up, and.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah, I will say this, Yeah, y'all go. I'm not
going to say at one time where I worked. When
I was here's where he talks down to us.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Listen. When I was in the line crew.

Speaker 8 (11:52):
Steel toe, I got feet to climb up hole.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Anyway, we worked for ten hour days. Was our work week.
There's that attitude you gets.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah, some of us, you see him, Some work Monday
through Thursdays, some work Tuesday through Friday, and some worked
Wednesday to Saturday. That was the bad one. Nobody. That
was the guys that had no time. They all got
stuck on that one.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
But the point is I was on both at one
time or the other as far as being off on Friday,
being off on Monday, and I like being off on
Monday better than I did Friday. Because of that, you
can see that Sunday dread. I can still have Saturday,
Sunday Monday, but don't you have Monday dread?

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Not really? Okay, it's different because everybody else is at working.
You weren't. I can see where. Yeah, I can see that.

Speaker 7 (12:35):
Plus Sunday you don't want to ruin it.

Speaker 6 (12:39):
I'd be okay with almost ruining Monday, you know, with
the Monday scaries instead of it says, it's Sunday.

Speaker 7 (12:44):
You don't want to ruin a Sunday.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Plus, that's that one day you get to, like you said,
they throw everybody off a little bit because you're you're
living a different life than most people.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Yeah Sundays, I'm kickback watching the NFL and I'm going
I ain't got to go to working. Oh wow, drank one,
sleep a little bit.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
You could even enjoy the NBC game and not not
not thankful. This is not of no use to me.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Absolutely, we had people this people are crazy that actually
complained about working those shifts.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
What that's nothing. That three day weekend, every weekend is
the greatest thing.

Speaker 6 (13:14):
Every difference between eight and ten hours is worse that excident.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Absolutely it is.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
So I had so having friends and acquaintances that are
at all these different stages of life and ad or
you're still there. Okay, So this is I have have
a friend that is in your stage of life. He
still has small kids. Okay, he's got one that is
a pro. I think he's somewhere around is he thirteen now?
But then he's got still got two that are seven

(13:43):
and younger?

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Okay? Down in that world. Okay, do we know who
it is?

Speaker 7 (13:47):
Yes, do you not want to say?

Speaker 2 (13:49):
I'm not going to say.

Speaker 7 (13:49):
I was going to start guessing, but then I started
feeling like you didn't want to say, so all wasn't
going to say.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
I'm not going to say, because you never know how
the if the wives see things the same way we do.
He just simply sent a picture from the beach and
I remember this, and it is that wagon. And the
wagon is packed full of life jackets, toys for the beach,

(14:14):
some sort of attempt tempt at an umbrella, some some
attempt at some sort and it's and he and his
and he simply said, when will the beach be fun again?
And I said, oh, buddy, yeah, I said, you are
you are? You are a camel, You're a donkey, You're

(14:35):
a beast of burden. He had stuff on his shoulders
strapped around him. It's, you know, boards, pack mule. And
I said, how about when them will sit that sand?
He goes, this feels pretty good when you're going down
the sidewalk from where you're staying, but once it hits
the sand you're dragging it.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
It's a bad. It's a bad. It's not even a
good sledge. It is you're a mule, and do you
all a lot of work? Do y'all remember?

Speaker 1 (15:03):
And then and then this is what gets me when
you would put all that effort in get the beach
set up, and you find yourself now a little bit different.
You're kind of mad that people aren't The kids don't
want to stay longer? Can we go to the pool,
And you're like, pool, I'd love to just walked out

(15:23):
the back of our place we're staying, you know, the
hotel or whatever, to the pool. That would have been
I wouldn't have had to have been a pack me
or cammebell dragging all this stuff down here to the beach.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Oh no, we're staying on the beach. We go.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
We're gonna get somebody of this set up that I've
been sweating profusely working on for an hour.

Speaker 9 (15:40):
Yeah saying I got saltimies of jellyfish stung man, you know,
And I wish we were at the pool, And you're like,
that's where I wanted to be the whole time.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
I can remember as a kid, I remember dragging all
that stuff out. But when I was a kid, I
remember being I would rather be in the pool. Mother
tells the story every time. Rick, how they were so
excited taking us to the beach for the first time
and we hated it.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Yeah, we grabbed about saying we were little hot salt water. No,
I remember that swimming pool. I used to like it.
Then you remember never been able to get your goggles
worth right where you can see good? No, that fog
and you thought you were going to be able to
see a lot of aquatic life and all you were
getting were waves hitting in the face, knocking your goggless
off and fogging them up. Salt in your eyes.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah, I'll tell him, I said, I'm not sure the
beach is enjoyable to you become an empty nestra again.

Speaker 7 (16:30):
Yeah, and it takes you an hour to get to
the beach.

Speaker 6 (16:32):
You want to stay at least for an hour, right, yeah,
you know, and you know time wise.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, so we'll be back by of the hour. Okay,
before we jump back in to the show, today, got
something special to tell you about. And it's only happening

Thing we've been.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Talking about, We've talked about it for years, back in
the Rick and Bubba days where let's face it and
we talked about it. We give people a pass that
we like, and it's according whether they get on the list,
because you can't give a pass to everybody. Some people
you have to be upset with Greg Speedy Adler. Are
any of you willing to now say you'll give an

(18:55):
unlimited pass to actor John Cusack? No John co Cousack
getting one. He's not important enough. Did I give him
a pass?

Speaker 2 (19:05):
Love? I like some of his movie Better Off Dead,
good one, classic, tell you a good have anything against him,
but I could do it out.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
I'll tell you a good one because I like a
good Western. You ever seen Jack Bull Jack Bull say
that again?

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Jack Bull? I think that's what it's going. It's pretty good.

Speaker 7 (19:21):
It's csack, but it doesn't matter Csacksack.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Don't you say it like a Q? The letter Q? Yeah,
I say Cusack somewhere in between the two. Since it's
a c is that okay?

Speaker 7 (19:30):
That's fine, It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
It doesn't matter, Simmy Quinson, Simmy Quinson, Hey, that's good
John Cusack, that it's perfect. I loved him in his
movies in the eighties.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
Oh yeah, he was good and I bought sixteen Canda
and he's a person except for that weird thing when
he played Brian Wilson.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
That was weird and another guy played him too. Did
you figure that one out? Too weird?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
And they weren't really at different ages, way way too weird.
I didn't follow that. I found that very confused. If
I'm wrong, it wouldn't like this guy played him as
a younger guy. He was an adult both times, and
it was two different.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
People playing it was tiggured.

Speaker 7 (20:06):
What movie was it?

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Something the beach Boy. It's about the beach boy, Brian Wilson,
guy John Cusack.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
But the other guy I see his face, don't know
his name. He was in Little Miss Sunshine, Oh yeah, yeah, wouldn't.

Speaker 6 (20:20):
Talk, Yeah yeah, and that uh oil.

Speaker 7 (20:23):
Rig movie, darn it oil Rig.

Speaker 6 (20:26):
He was the preacher in Uh There Will Be Blood.
Also Sunshine little Miss Sunshine. And there's Brian Wilson in there.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Twelve years a slave, twelve years. Yeah, but I don't
know his name anybody, but he was.

Speaker 7 (20:41):
In The Batman, the recent The Batman.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Oh, I don't know about that.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
But they were the same They look around the same
age and for some reason they both played Brian Wilson.

Speaker 6 (20:50):
It was you needed a bigger age gap.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yes, it was really strange.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
So anyway, so don John Cusack, Donny Jenny. Here's what
he has said. He is they label him in the story,
which I didn't I didn't know, as anti Israel and
anti Trump. Okay, and he's hoping He put this out
last Friday.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
He posted this and shared it on x.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
He thinks that Iran should get a nuclear weapons so
it can deter the US and Israel's aggression in the
Middle East. He wants them to hold us in Israel
at bay because we're dangerous and they need to be
protected from US. I don't know if a child would
have that opinion.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
I'm saying a little kid would go, oh, they don't
need that. You know. He's a grown man. He thinks
that makes sense.

Speaker 5 (21:46):
Yeah, and I heard this commentary about the anti Trumpers
and they just want him to look bad. It's it's
it's so weird because they're so quick to react. Uh,
they won't let it play out and just be happy
that America is winning. They they're so anti him, they
actually root for America to do bad so they can
point it to Trump, when really that's that's really.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
You're siding with the run. Yeah, I mean you've hit
a new low.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Wow. Wow wow.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
I don't under I don't understand that mindset. It just
seems bizarre because I don't. I don't think you'll find
a history of the United States or Israel saying to
the world, if all of you do not come into
the authority of our religious convictions, then we must kill
you or you must convert.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
I don't see anybody.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Saying that you you must you know, convert to Christianity
or be destroyed by the US.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
You know, you you have to become Jewish or we
will kill you. I just I don't I haven't seen that.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
But but I have seen that from wrong and radical
Islamic regimes.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
I haven't seen that. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
And what's what's interesting is this this kind of it's
kind of reminded me because, uh, just coming back from
New York. But watching this socialist Muslim darling of the
New Yorkers does do you kind of tilt your head
a little bit when you look at the history of

(23:27):
Islam and homosexuality. Even though Whoope says I shouldn't say this,
I'm gonna go ahead and say it.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Wolves, But but.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
He's in the gay pride parade.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
That that in Islam. I want to check the handbook.
I just can I give all of you in the
l g B t Q community.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
If somebody's truly devout in their faith and their Islamic
and Islam is their faith and they're pretending to be
celebrating the pride parade, they're trying to dupe you.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
I do a little research.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Yeah, they're not giving you the whole picture and and
the whole socialism thing.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
I'd give it a look too. So we have state
grocery stours out right, Yeah, let's do that. You know how.
We know how that'll go because it's already been trying.

Speaker 6 (24:13):
That's the part called he seems like he's a much
more devout communist than he is he is as far
as any other religion.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
He might find and he doesn't go I'm a socialist. No,
he's a communist. But but keep in mind, keep an
oye on that. Yeah, keep an oye on that though,
because FODA is a real thing. And if you don't
believe that, just ask London right now. Uh, ask a
lot of European countries as Paris right now, where you

(24:42):
know people are afraid to go outside. That was all
the work we're we just want to infiltrate into the
this and we want to put ourselves in power like this.
This way, he may think playing to leftists in New
York as as I'm a full blown communists, because he
sees the Bernie Sanders and the Alec's doing well with

(25:03):
New Yorkers.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
This could just be a ploy.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
See I do find communism dangerous, don't misunderstand me. But
those that love communism. It's also a pretty good door
for a radical Islamist who's doing fadda not jihad, to
infiltrate their way into the mayor of one of the.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Most powerful cities in the world. Yeah, like London and Paris.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
Just keep an eye on that because that card has
already been played and they're doing pretty good with it.
So I'd keep an eye on that. I would ask
you if if you had any guts as a journalist,
which I know the New York Press doesn't, I would say, hey, hey,
my hands up back here.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
So are you Muslim? Yes? Sirm?

Speaker 1 (25:42):
So are do you practice Islam like fundamentally? Then you're
in the gay Pride parade. Talk to me on your
views of homosexuality. I would ask them that, yeah, now
you know the difference in a Christian and a Muslim
in the view of God standard for marriage and gender.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Uh, we will.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Disagree with you, and we will say that we respectfully disagree,
but we're not gonna kill you, Okay, But but it
would be just be careful with that, you know, because
they're they're doing it around the world, and I just
keep an eye on it.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Uh So. Anyway, so Cusack says.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
That he wants a ron to be able to protect
themselves from US and Israel, and that's why they should
be allowed to have a nuclear weapon.

Speaker 6 (26:27):
And that was the Winston Churchill that said that, Rick.
That was Winston Churchhill that said that. No, it was
John Cusack, so smart, so educated, I thought it might be.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
But here's the beauty of Johnny C. Here's the beauty
of Johnny C. Appreciate you pretending to be people.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
We've been entertained by it, and we who have actually
have are head screwed on correctly.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Will protect you from that dumb idea? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Uh, Rosie O'Donnell unleashes scathing criticism. I can't believe Jeff
Bezo and Lauren Sanchez's gross excess wedding A Rose ain't
none of your business, Jeff. He's got the money. Bezos
made his money. He can have his wedding. You know
what's interesting, Rose, when you decided to marry another woman,

(27:14):
you were upset, and I understand saying that it's your
business and your partner's business. It's really none of our business, okay,
but right, but yet you turn right around and then
you make somebody else's wedding your business in their marriage.
How about this, Rosie. If they have the money, they
can do their wedding anyway they want to. They didn't
take that money from somebody else. They made that money, okay.

(27:37):
And if you want to criticize them from Ireland, then
you go right ahead and do that. But it's really
none of your business. And I'm not some big Jeff
Bezos fan, no or anything. I don't know that they
are a weird looking coupany. I don't know how are
I don't know how many times, I don't even know
how many things that we would even agree on. But
I do believe that people are to be able to
do whatever they want to with their own money. It's

(28:00):
nobody else's business. Uh and so uh so anyway, he
she said, it turned her stomach seeing these billionaires gathered
in the gross excess of it, all the show of it,
and and so I.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Wonder what her life and I'm sure there's some excess there.
She's done pretty well, right, yeah, yeah, right, so Rosie's
Bezos level. But nobody is except eliin musk Are we
saying that Rosie during the height of her career was
not super wealthy and and and and maybe lived a
little bit excess, But but is it really excess if
you can afford it and it's your own money.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
You may you you may say I wish you'd do
other things or your money. You can have that opinion,
but you don't get to dictate what to do with
their money.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, and according to if he does other stuff, then
that you would consider good. She says he has disdain
for his employees. Maybe does I don't know.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
According to old pal from from mayor in New York,
he says there shouldn't be billionaires, right, yeah, he said,
the world doesn't need him.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Remember though, that's always to be careful because even in communism,
which this guy says he is, he'll do okay, the
ruling class they do just fine, Yeah they do. What
he really means is normal people shouldn't be allowed to
be wealthy, but the government is allowed to because they're
smarter and they deserve it. Of July, by the way,

(29:25):
welcome to July. You know who was born in July,
don't you? Greg July seventeenth, I was coming through the world.

Starday yesterday. By the way, welcome to July. You can't

Speaker 5 (32:18):
How about how about when adult people force you to
celebrate their birthday.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Oh, I know what you're talking about when they set
it up themselves. Yeah, yeah, that's one. I like, oh yeah,
I need this for getting on a run. I'm giving
myself a birthday party. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (32:32):
I stopped that when I was like twenty two. Hey,
everybody's going to a restaurant and then go to.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
The movie a meal.

Speaker 6 (32:39):
Yeah, and then everybody gets there and I'm like, I'm
forcing people to do this.

Speaker 7 (32:42):
This is the last year. I'm nobody wanted to be there.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
And also be sure many times you can do one
of Greg's favorite celebrate Christmas in July.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
Yeah, that's another good one. Don't you love that? Because
Christmas ain't nowhere near July. No, it's not. It's just
called they ain't. Carolyn's still celebrating Christmas. They got a
Christmas tree up. They sure it's a big too, and
I get yeah, do you know?

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, they just don't want to this random empty tree
over in the corner. Well, if if I had extra room,
nobody's using, right, That's kind of what it was.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Every year it was still decorating. I think Carolyn slips
in there sometimes because of a lair snoring you just
made that up now, she said it. He looks like
he was snowing. You missed it as a documentary, doesn't
he Huh? He looks like he was snoring. Oh no, David,
no death. Uh so uh.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
We got a couple of updates on some on some
not so good stories.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
Chilling image shows Idaho firefighter ambush suspect in war paint.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Yeah, before deadly attack.

Speaker 5 (33:42):
I realized he's twenty years though. Yes, it's it's sad.
He put it on his Instagram story. What Rick just
referred to and they showed it. They showed it yesterday.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Was it his granddad? I saw there was quoted that
said he wanted to be a fireman and he got denied. Ah,
well said they claimed it. Now that may be his theory.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
Now, the local police said that they were familiar with him.
They had about five different run ins with him, but
all were minor. And then the FBI was talking and
they said, we do not know the motive, but it
does show that he wanted he wanted to be a
firefighter at one time, but we don't know if that
was the call.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
And they claimed that's what he was doing or not.

Speaker 1 (34:22):
His granddaddy whoever they were quoting, and I did I
didn't know they was. They acted like they wouldn't take
him because he was only five eight.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
It was a height restrict Sorry, that's what you look
at him.

Speaker 7 (34:32):
I don't have anything to do with this story.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Well, I know that you could be a fireman if
you went over five eighty. I don't know about all
that now. I'm just saying what was in the article. Say,
the granddad was like speculating, he made say he loved fireman.

Speaker 7 (34:45):
Well he typically requirement.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
I'm just telling you what it was in the article.
It looked like that makes sense. You're gonna have a
hard could be a firefighter. You're gonna have a hard
time telling me that you love fireman when you set
a fire to lower fireman in so you could.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Yeah, it's gonna be a tough sound.

Speaker 5 (35:01):
Now, Apparently he interacted with him before, I guess, going
up and doing his thing or something, and and it
looked like he was living out of his car. But
to be only twenty and doing that and.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Yeah issues, yeah, mentally ill likely, uh, demonic possessed, evil person.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
So there you go.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
But that first time, the little he wanted to be
a fireman's thrown it there. That was one of the
things we all if you just have common sense, you
look and go, I wonder if I had something to do.
Does he have some beef with firemen? So I don't know,
we'll see. Also another warning this week on fourth of July,
we are being warned of lone wolf terrorist threats. But
that's yeah, that's pretty much every year on any of

(35:43):
our big if you hate America, our our holidays where
we celebrate America and our history, probably always days to
be on the look keeping.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
So so that's.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
But you know, one of the things we've always said,
don't do anything stupid, but also don't do anything that is.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Not needed.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
You know, don't don't let these people and just the
thread of them rob you of Fourth of July and
the things you want to do you live your life.
That's the best way to show that we're not afraid
of terrorist threats or whatever, but also just kind of
be aware your surroundings, know what's going on, and you know,
don't do things stupid. Yeah, I ask you all this.
I'm kind of getting off that, but it's the fourth

(36:26):
of July.

Speaker 2 (36:26):
A question, what do you consider too early for people
shooting fireworks. They were shooting them last night and it's
not way. That's way. Okay.

Speaker 5 (36:34):
So you're not talking about that the day of you're
talking about.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Yeah, I'm talking about in the week. Uh huh. We
don't need to be doing that.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
No, they all of sudden. I was getting ready to
go to bed. Some moron shooting fireworks off.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Yeah on June and thirtieth. No, I'm thinking, what do
you get warmed up? Yeah, you're practicing. It's not like
New Years.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
I expected on the fourth and New Year's and us
in New Year's. This is the fourth. You don't have
to wait to midnight to start all this care you go.
We don't work midnight, well like I do on New
Year's Eve. There really should be no fireworks. Can you
definitely know what to do it on June thirtieth? No,
but the fourth of July. I think fireworks can only
be shot on the fourth of July. Absolutely, June thirtieth

(37:13):
is not We didn't declare independence on June thirtieth, and
I would like you to have them shot and done
with before it gets bedtime. Yeah, if that's possible, even
even on the fourth. No, I mean, no, the fourth,
How like, can they shoot him on the fourth?

Speaker 2 (37:25):
H nine? Okay, nine, you looked up when you thought,
you know, I'll give.

Speaker 7 (37:30):
Them nine o'clock.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
There's plenty of time, right, that's right.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
So you want to do all firewar even you know
most till Rick, you can do sparkless to ten o'clock.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
Okay, they don't make noise.

Speaker 7 (37:40):
So we have permissions for ten o'clock sparklers.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Yeah, noise.

Speaker 6 (37:44):
Well that's not until eight fifteen, Greg, that's forty five
minutes from fireworks.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
You gotta hurry up.

Speaker 5 (37:51):
I don't know who started it, but but around me
there's some houses. But in it, Oh, he's a free Yeah,
it's just storms. Oh it sounds it sounds all too early.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
He'll come.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
You just get on the step in the garage in
front of the door. But he you know, he don't
like it, but he don't. He don't go nuts too
early for fireworks. You don't not no pun intending you're
gonna burn out. Fourth, I didn't even hear yet.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
This is the Rick Burgess Show. Thanks for being with
us today.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Happy Birthday America coming up Friday, two hundred and forty
nine years.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
How about that? Not quite the simi quincentennial yet that'll
be next year. But we're getting there. I thought about that.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
You know, we're still we're too young, too young country.
Oh yeah, and you don't realize that unless, of course,
travel the world and that you see how how young
we really are. It was like even when we were
visiting our son and his wife over the weekend in
New York going that like he was like, hey, you
want to go down here.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
And I'll show you these cobblestone streets. And I look down.
I said, that's about all we got. That's all we
show you.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
You know, we don't have anything from the twelve hundred,
thirteen hundreds, any of that. We always really show you
that little colonial stuff or cobblestone streets.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
We don't. We don't have a lot to show. We're
not all that old.

Speaker 6 (39:18):
In America, it's like, oh wow, this is one hundred
years old, one hundred.

Speaker 7 (39:26):
In the UK, it's like, is a thousand year old
pub right here?

Speaker 10 (39:29):
Right?

Speaker 7 (39:29):
It's wild?

Speaker 2 (39:30):
It is. Yeah. I remember, like my mind trying to
wrap around, now, when was this cathedral built that was
in the twelve hundred, right, twelve hundreds? What am I
doing here? Yes? This? Why is it, not just they're
still standing.

Speaker 6 (39:44):
We are a young we are this experiment. We are
an experiment in freedom and limited government.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
Here comes have been Franklin in the constitution here.

Speaker 7 (39:55):
And by the people and for the people, and to
buy the people.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
And although we have a republic, we have you can
keep it. We have it. Yes, you can keep it.
Although and.

Speaker 11 (40:16):
Therefore uh the yah, yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
All right, So we do have something that's really about
to aggravate. I think everybody in this room, maybe probably
not Speedy as much because he's not as into music.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
Would you still want to leave this segment? Huh you
want to leave? Hey, hey, good buddy. Hey, I'm the
one that brought the story to the table. Listen, we'll
be back to baseball in a minute.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
So you hear us all the time saying that this,
this showed it will always be our commitment that we're
going to broadcast from.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
The real world. Uh, we are ever so steadily.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
And with that, and and the tempo seems to be
picking up that we have entered into fake worldness. Well,
here's another example. I wondered how this would go. Speedy
just informed us there's a new band. Tell us about
this band.

Speaker 5 (41:21):
I can Yes, Okay, there's a there's a there's a
new man. The band they're called Velvet Sundown, and when
we say they, we mean AI artificial intelligence. The project
already has five hundred thousand monthly listeners on Spotify. We're

(41:42):
going to play just a little bit of their first
song called let It Burn. But uh, the Adler's showing
them now it's an AI image. It shows the all
male foursome they're on X walking across Abbey Road. It
gets funnier. They released two albums in fifteen days.

Speaker 2 (41:59):
Uh, it's they have.

Speaker 5 (42:02):
They have song titles with using the same words like
echoes through the pines, floating on echoes, dusting the wind,
the wind still knows our name, dust in silence, rebel
shout where the rebel meets uh.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
And it goes on and on.

Speaker 5 (42:15):
But I guess the story is how much popularity they're
gaining just after a time.

Speaker 2 (42:22):
So this has not even real.

Speaker 5 (42:24):
This is not all AI generating, every instruments and songs
and all everything.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
None of it's real.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
Nobody's real, no instruments real, right, it is completely AI generated,
And a half a million people are already following their
music and how and what period of time.

Speaker 5 (42:44):
It says, you see a project already has five hundred
thousand listeners on Spotify, and it says it's a new band.
It doesn't really say how long. But tell me, if
you heard this song, would you know it's it's a I.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
The Good Lights.

Speaker 7 (43:13):
Sounds silver, same.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Bunchingle. No, you wouldn't know.

Speaker 7 (43:22):
It sounds like Moon Taxi.

Speaker 6 (43:23):
Yeah that even the voice, even the voice sound.

Speaker 7 (43:31):
Wow.

Speaker 11 (43:31):
No.

Speaker 7 (43:31):
Basis on the image of the band.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
I know, yeah, I love the bass player.

Speaker 7 (43:36):
It's all bothers me are the Metallica estatic.

Speaker 2 (43:43):
It sounds real, Yeah, it does, it does. I don't
understand why we would want.

Speaker 7 (43:49):
That, y'all.

Speaker 6 (43:50):
It sounds like they've modeled the voice after Trevor from
Moon Taxi. I'm not joking around at all. That's what
its voice sounds like.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
I will say this based on that because my youngest
son this is the style of music he loves. Yes,
he's a massive Moon Taxi person. Yes, And if my
son heard this, he would say, oh, yeah, that's that's
that's that's my.

Speaker 2 (44:11):
Jam right kind that's what I like in there.

Speaker 5 (44:13):
Yeah, it's it's it's really scary a that we we
wouldn't recognize it, and b this is where everything's headed.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
So we're gonna have people that are fans of something
that's not even real. Correct.

Speaker 7 (44:25):
Oh wow, it's dust on the wind, funny, not dust
in the wind?

Speaker 2 (44:30):
But is it?

Speaker 1 (44:31):
Also somebody pointed out BlackBerry Smoke has a song called
let It Burn, Yeah, which is a good.

Speaker 7 (44:36):
One by the a real song by a real band.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
But here is the point. This will never be okay
with us. And I'm gonna include you in that speedy thank.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
You buddies, and that's a part of us.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
But but this is the part that I think we
must prepare for. If if if I like what I'm hearing,
why do I care how it was creating? If it's
if it's an enjoyable experience for me, I just now,
you can't go see them live.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
But I shouldn't say that, Oh they'll have avatar. Yeah,
you'll go have avatars and you'll go see them live.
But if a person who doesn't give a rip about
instruments and abilities and yeah, well there's five hundred thousand,
they just want to hear something that's put together that
is pleasing to their ears and their emotions. Do they

(45:26):
tell how they care.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
And when you say when we say it's not real,
they go, it is real because it was created and
I can hear it.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
That's real enough for me. In this crazy world we
live in.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
They'll look at that band and they'll find who I
like him, I'm a fan of him, and they'll act
like that's.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
A real person, that that's their favorite member. And Greg
we help become were we have people proposing to a people. Yeah,
that's true story.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
So so being a fan is starting to pretend like
you like the blondheaded one is not far fest at all.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
Have posters of him up so.

Speaker 5 (45:59):
In the awar shows, Grammy's all that. Do you think
there'll be an ai AI category it's the best AI band.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
Or they may just take the whole thing over. Everybody's
out of a job, all the musicians. Kid, gracious, what
do you think the world? This AI thing? What do
you think about actors? Just get up there in panamime
it like they did with Girl. You know it's true, Van,
You just take the music, go get real people. Yeah,

(46:28):
and let's let them yeah, I mean hire them to
be the band. See this this flies all over us.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
But there's a lot of people that don't care as
long as they hear the song and they like it,
they don't, I couldn't care less that was generated.

Speaker 6 (46:41):
See, I could understand if you don't know and not care,
But once you know, doesn't it change how there's no
fingers on the strings? You know what I mean, there's
no there's no there's no fingers on the strings, there's
no sweat, there's no real, nothing real to it. And
if you don't know, then I could understand not caring.
But once you know it doesn't that wreck the song

(47:03):
for you? Because it does of course.

Speaker 1 (47:06):
Yeah, yeah, I like it, even yeah, even Speed who
knows nothing about it. Who's the closest thing we have
to people that might be okay with it?

Speaker 2 (47:14):
Right? But he's not quite.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
But I'm telling you there's people, and I can think
of some that this wouldn't bother in the least.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
They just put it on shuffle and go. Sounds good
to me.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
I'm in Yeah, I don't care how the music was created.
Now I will say this, Playing with these parody songs
and you know we can it won't take me anytime,
which I will to freshen some of them up, and
some of them are not very good. Some of them
are okay, some of them I think have the potential
to be good when it comes to parody songs and
jingles and all that. AI can knock that out for
you completely free in about forty five seconds. Yeah I

(47:49):
won't say that again forty five seconds.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:52):
So.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
But but if you're looking for something of great depth,
and this.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
Is the looks like an attempt at that, you can
still tell they run aground a little bit on their
ability to really really impress you lyrically because they're kind
of limited. A I hadn't quite learned. I tell you
one thing it hasn't learned. It all is comedy. It
hadn't gotten there yet, but it's learning. It'll get clever
as time goes on. Now, I will tell you one

(48:19):
thing I will disagree a little bit showing that it
can be clever. This thing where you show them a
picture of people and they make up a narrative on
each person.

Speaker 2 (48:28):
AI. That's funny. Some of that stuff is funny and
remarkably close. Yeah, yeah, you know where they'll go here
this guy right here, you know. Yeah, pretty funny stuff.

Speaker 5 (48:38):
Yeah, people did that like for Thanksgiving family photos and.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
They it on our photos too. People send those to
us and they're pretty funny. Yeah, they're pretty funny, So
that that's showing the comedies possible. But when you try
to get them to write a funny song, let's say,
replace Tim Wilson and how funny he was? AI on
funny songs that not really Yeah, they rhyme words that
they don't really go could have been more clever, you know,

(49:04):
that kind of thing. But as far as like we're
doing with the the stuff coming back from the breaks
and all that, it's nothing. You know that as far
as musicians going in the studio and creating those kind
of songs, yeah, and commercials and jingles like that, it's
it's going to really have an impact there.

Speaker 5 (49:20):
Well, you know, and AI is is it advances and
it's continuing to get better and they're dialing it in
over time. Where are we going to get to the
point where we have to identify things as AI from
the beginning you come about photos, who's to say, Greg,
they can't have you somewhere you weren't, Yeah, and you
can't tell somebody mean, it's about to get that.

Speaker 2 (49:41):
Just getting dangerous, right, Somebody said, just go ahead and
say it Bubba would love it. He would, Oh, yeah,
for sure. But that's you know what, like there's a
huge audience for that. Yeah, that like they just it's
like if it's catchy and it's uh, I.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Can snap my fingers to it, or I'm kind of
like the way it sounds and the I don't care
whether it was created electronically or by AI or by humans.
But AI will say works for a lot less money. Yeah,
we'll be back, And that's what you'll have to be
concerned about.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (50:21):
I interact a lot with the box seats, and I
actually had an email yesterday and says, where's the best
place to get Greg's fritters?

Speaker 2 (50:27):
I know we're not. We're sorry, We're there. We need
We're coming in. We want to we want to get
what he will to y'all don't have to bring You're
the one that went in the fritter frenzy. We didn't
do it.

Speaker 7 (50:38):
We know Greg demands fritters, so where can we get
them for him?

Speaker 2 (50:42):
I just can wonder if the peasants coming in will
bring me fritters.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
I'm begging people just to come to the show. You
don't have to bring stuffing ying ying Yan.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
Okay, uh, let's take a look here. Look at there,
look at there, Look at Gray. You're gonna love this,
by the way, You're gonna love this. All right, So
this one, Hey Burge, Hey Burge, And this is from
David Greg. I'm so excited for you. I'm so excited.

(51:19):
This is gonna be as good as a fritter. Okay. So,
now that Speedy has survived the trip to Georgia, I
have a couple of ideas for him on the show.
I had had these a couple of weeks ago, but
when I heard he was going to visit Larry and Carolyn,
I held off, just in just in case for Speedy
by me lunch. Have Speedy sit behind a table now

(51:40):
with a sign that says make me by your lunch.
That might get more people to approach him instead of
him walking around and freaking freaking people out in the
parking lot. Now now for you, Greg. Okay, By the.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
Way, Greg, I asked chat GPT to raw an example
of what I just presented. I include a screenshot that
will prove that I did not request any specifics. I
simply asked it to create me an a I with
speed with Calvin, He said, I used his name sitting

(52:18):
behind the desk, and.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
Here's what chat g P T drew creamy mood.

Speaker 7 (52:37):
Calvin.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
He said, all I felt was Calvin Speed, Calvin Speedy Wilburn.

Speaker 2 (52:41):
And this is what it drew. It drew my case,
and it drew Calvin as a black man. That's all right.
He's got some ways to get like no other.

Speaker 7 (52:53):
I like that, like no other, like mother, so speedy brother.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
When I saw that young man, it looks like Will Smith.
When I saw that, I could not send that to
a quick enough. Also, he says, I wouldn't mind when
the will lands on Speedy's wallet. Let's let him walk
out to the truck and prove he actually owns one.
The camera can follow him.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
That's fine, that right there. I need that printed off.
I'm hanging it my off, right.

Speaker 7 (53:21):
We need posters of it everywhere.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
That's so good.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
Yeah, when y'all mentioned Will Smith, I heard on another
radio on the way and yesterday he's also got a
song out about him slapping Chris Rock. It's kind of
talking about you heard his His latest venture is just embarrassing.

Speaker 4 (53:37):
It is.

Speaker 2 (53:38):
It really like pretty gear. But then it's about something
about if you run your mouth on stage. I'll be
on stage right, so, uh, all.

Speaker 1 (53:51):
Right, I'm gonna I'm gonna Ben, I'm going to hold
your email. And I think next segment we'll do a
we'll do a vox verdict, so will have time to
get his robe and his can't wait to see him
because I think this next one's more of that because
the guy want they want us to make a call
on something. All right, so let's go to Chase. Hey Bird,
Chase Bird, Hey, Chase. Well, that buddy fun question for

(54:12):
a short week. So you put in the book Men
Don't Run in the Rain about that wonderful story about
Coach on his birthday asking you if Muhammad Ali was
still alive, and there there was that he said, since
Muhammad Ali was no longer living, no one his age
could whip him. Uh So I would like to ask
the team, is there anybody that you would also say, now,

(54:36):
if that person is still alive, you would have a
concern about. Is there one person that you don't think
could that you could whip? Apparently Coach was worried about
Muhammad Ali. Who would you be worried about? Well, Mike
Tyson and his prime conor McGregor, are you worried about
I think I think I could take Connor McGregor.

Speaker 7 (54:53):
You did, You couldn't take.

Speaker 2 (54:56):
Body you could take. You could take Connor.

Speaker 5 (54:59):
I know, I know you think you can take a
wolf and apparently other animals.

Speaker 2 (55:03):
And I never said a bear. I never said a bear.
I never said a gorilla, a r a chimpanzee. But
you're right, we always go to Tyson because, let's just
call it, he's scary. I would say, I think I would.
I would have some real concerns about Ray Lewis. Yeah,
I'm scared, guys. I don't think we could take Holyfield.
That's probably true. No, he's gotten pretty old and all right,

(55:25):
right now take hersha Walker.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Keep in mind, keeping mind Dad was concerned about Muhammad
Ali had his same age, not in their prime.

Speaker 2 (55:34):
Okay, yeah, but I would Still you've still talk of himself.
I haven't. I saw a picture of him recently.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
But now are we talking when we're eighty we're talking
about scared? Yeah, yeah, we're taking we're talking about we're
seventy plus.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
They are too. I'm still staying with Tyson. I just
I saw him.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
I know he I know he can't his conditioning's not
great and his legs are wobbly, but I wouldn't want
to be punched by him and just so little.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
Hey, what are you looking at kind of situation? I'm
going with Godbert looking at it, I'm going go, oh, yeah,
the rest you want. Gobert, he's not a real fighter.
He was a football player. His sons a football player.

Speaker 5 (56:13):
Have you seen him lately? So takes care of himself.
These guys are every But if he spares me.

Speaker 7 (56:19):
Are we talking if we're seventy and they're seventy and we're.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
Well, that's the what if that is right? Yes, yeah, yes,
that's it.

Speaker 6 (56:26):
Well, then I would say any professional fighter is going
to beat any seventy year old professional fighters going to
beat any seventy year old us.

Speaker 7 (56:34):
What if I didn't take care of them saying we're
not professional fighters?

Speaker 1 (56:36):
What if they didn't take care of themself? If they've
lost used to like one arm, right, you don't know
they're losing all. Yeah, But to me, Tyson, to me
is terrifying, Mike, because yeah, yeah, thathing crazy. I just
think he could punch your face in like like like
things just so bad, And I don't think I could.

Speaker 2 (56:57):
I don't think I could hurt him. He seems like
a kind of a a tank. Could you take Chuck
Norris right now? I think so? Yeah, Chuck, Look am
I this agent? Now he's the same age everything? Yeah,
I think so, Thank you guy. He looks a little
wobbled man. He ain't got good on his feet. Steven

(57:18):
Seagal not sure. Hey have you seen him? I could?

Speaker 7 (57:22):
I could take pounds, my goodness, pounds. And he dresses
like he's some kind of like that sage I have
not wizard monk.

Speaker 1 (57:36):
Yeah, I haven't seen him. I haven't seen him in
modern time. So anyway, all right, so let's come back.
We've got a vox verdict s.

Speaker 2 (57:44):
He says he's afraid of Hobie holy Field's dead speedy.
No he's not. He This is this is where a
text nation. You don't just because they just I.

Speaker 7 (58:00):
Mean, he didn't look good, but didn't he just fight
like a Yeah, just.

Speaker 5 (58:03):
Because somebody text it doesn't mean it's really.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
Only thought he's gone.

Speaker 1 (58:15):
All right, So let's let's see if we can help
this this person out by you know, doing a box verdict.
So everybody kind of gets your thinking cap on Adler.
You look great in there, adders the judge, judge Eagle.

Speaker 7 (58:31):
Court is in session. Court is in session. Everyone ceasing
to sist.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
Let's go mister Chin's heart. You see, mister Chan, that's
a lot of noise coming out of the water and
dropping back. You stopped, he didn't? I mean now Chin?

Speaker 10 (58:47):
No like?

Speaker 2 (58:49):
Okay? All right, So.

Speaker 1 (58:53):
This is from being need some help, need a box
verdict here love love the show and join it every day, Thank.

Speaker 2 (59:00):
You very much. This is a little bit of what
about the dog? But look here it is all right.

Speaker 1 (59:08):
Recently I stopped by to visit my father in law
who has just gone into sadly into a nursing home
with Alzheimer's.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to hear that. We meant
through that and we know how bad that is.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
While trying to remind him who I was, I noticed
a lady came through the door being dragged by a bouncy,
very hyper dog. I'm sure it was a therapy dog
of some sort. I'm sure the patients loved the dog,
but there there's that thing that a dog will do sometimes.
It wasn't very well trained. It was trying to jump
on everyone. I immediately got a little anxious because I

(59:41):
can't stand for dogs to jump on me, and I
hate it when folks think I want to interact with
their overly hyper pet.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
I ignored her, ignored.

Speaker 1 (59:52):
Her and the dog as it drug her all over
the lobby, hoping she would pass me by. Sure enough,
as I was talking with my father in law reminding
him who I was. It was the first time he
didn't recognize me, which was sad. I was interrupted by
this dog jumping all over me and almost licking me

(01:00:13):
in the face. It took me by surprise, actually, and
I immediately pushed the dog away and out of my
frustration considering the situation I was in, I said out loud,
I don't want that thing jumping on me. I'm pretty
confident that I displayed a pretty aggressive tone. The dog
handler pulled the dog away and went on her way.

(01:00:34):
Now to the vox verdict, my family said I was
rude and that the reaction was unnecessary. But I think
the dog owner was actually the rude one, not me.
Why is it not rude for her just to assume
that I wanted her dog jumping all over me, licking
me in my face? Why I'm trying to talk to
my father in law. Why shouldn't she also have a

(01:00:57):
responsibility to keep her dog under control. I don't agree
with my family, but maybe they're right.

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
What do you guys think you're rude? I can go first,
this is this is easy for me, Okay, all right?
A reaction or are warranted? Warranted? Okay?

Speaker 5 (01:01:16):
The time and place you're in, you're in a situation,
it's pretty serious.

Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
It's emotional. Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:01:21):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:01:22):
And then you got this this dog, which I mean,
I've got three dogs, so let's not say I'm a
dog hater. Okay, but but but we don't take dogs
into public places unless we have to, and it's a
situation we can't get out of. You know, if you're
gonna do that, control your dog, if you're gonna if
you're gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:01:39):
Go in there.

Speaker 5 (01:01:40):
And now maybe the the owner thought that that's what
was wanted, but I'm just gonna say the situation warranted
just shoeing the dog away.

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
It sounds to me like.

Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
The dogs that people and they do use them for
comfort in and nursing homes and different places like that,
but they have a certain temperament they do. They don't
jump on you, they come up to you and pet them,
they lean against you leg, you know what I'm saying,
they're trained for it. It sounds like this one wasn't.
And she shouldn't assume or he or she whoever the
hammer was, I can't remember. Assume that everybody wants to interact.

(01:02:15):
Some may want to with a dog like that, but
you shouldn't assume everybody did. The ones i've seen, like
I say, are they're trained or just the way they are,
they comfort They come sit by you and you pet them.

Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
You saying natural reaction from the guy. I think he
was just a bip to him and it caught, you know,
time faming. The timing is terrible. If it jumped off.
You have a dog that's doing that, that has that
kind of attitude. Don't assume everybody wants to be around. Yeah,
the owner has to take some responsible I think.

Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
Both of you made a good point. I do not
think it was a therapy dog, because therapy dogs don't
do that. They're very well behaved unless it was a rookie. Yeah,
And and they're actually usually very pleasant and they don't
bother anybody. So I think that somebody just brought a
wild dog into the nursing lobby that is not very
well trained and does not know how to be appropriate

(01:03:05):
around strangers, and it was the responsibility of the owner
to keep the dog restrained. Especially see some of you
that are saying the guy was mean. Can can you
wait on just a minute, because you never know what
people's day have been. Like the man just told you
that his father in law didn't recognize him for the
very first time, and they're dealing with Alzheimer's and maybe

(01:03:27):
that's a real personal, intimate situation. And in an open place,
in the lobby of a nursing home. This was not
like the lobby of say fund zone for animals, the
lobby of a veterinarian. This was a nursing home where
there's a lot of sad.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Things going on.

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
And if the dog's coming in to bring people joy,
that's perfectly fine, but you you have a responsibility to
not let your dog jump upon people and lick them
in the face.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
And there are people that are afraid of dogs. Yeah,
well the owner has to kind of read the room,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:04:02):
It's like, if the dog comes in, if you're bringing
it for a certain reason, maybe it's who you're seeing.
Maybe it brings back memories to see the dog. Whatever,
that's fine, but read the room and understand that maybe
not everybody wants a dog jumping on them, especially at that.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Maybe your dog's not cut out to be a comfort animal, right.
I don't think the dog was a comfortable he said.
He just said it may be. I don't think so.
I think therapy animals are much better trained than that.
I don't think it was a therapy animal. I think
this is a thing we've got to stop, is these
weird pet people are trying to blend in with therapy
pet people and say they can just bring their dog

(01:04:37):
any cotton picking place they want to, and not if
your dog can't be handled. Judge, our verdict is the
man was within his right and acted appropriately considering the
situation he was put in, and that his family's being
too hard on him.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
What say you, and it's not like he kicked it.

Speaker 6 (01:04:53):
Do your time has expired? Duror Okay, your time has expired?
The other juror to already he off this proceedings yours.
It's the proceedings of it now. After hearing the the
the the the testimony of the two honorable jurors and

(01:05:17):
one and one extra germor Greg going over his time.

Speaker 7 (01:05:22):
Your time had expired clearly, uh.

Speaker 6 (01:05:25):
And due to the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness
and freedom from dog breath causes of our constitution that
we all know about I rule rule in favor of
the jewelry, and that had that that that the way
that he talked of that dog was via probable cause.

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
Very good.

Speaker 7 (01:05:48):
So he had probable cause to do that.

Speaker 2 (01:05:50):
Somebody has done their legal homework.

Speaker 7 (01:05:51):
Yes, now that the court is in session, we are
officially a dude.

Speaker 2 (01:06:00):
Is the Rick Burgess Show? I know it's become a
big topic.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Because I just got back from from New York City
and a lot of people were saying, you see this,
you see that? Uh, And just know that we really
just kind of went and immersed ourselves in the in
the part of New York where our our son and
his uh his wife live, And we didn't go there
and hit some of the bigger spots. We were just
spending time with them more than anything. But we do

(01:06:33):
have a couple of updates and people asking me some
things that I've seen. First of all, let's go to
is it Zorron Zach says Ron ma'am Danny uh so, uh,
this is the Communists something that is a weird commination.
The communists Muslim candidate to be the next mayor.

Speaker 2 (01:06:55):
Of New York. Uh uh.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
Yeah, that's so when you think about some of the
things he's already said, including the state run or he's
say in city, but it'd be the same thing city
run grocery stores, which, as we said, we've we've watched
government run grocery stores and how well those have worked.

Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
Isn't that great?

Speaker 1 (01:07:17):
But today he's going to talk about how he will
slowly start buying up the housing on the private market, wow,
and turn those into government run communes.

Speaker 10 (01:07:30):
So here we go, well, further toward the Vienna model,
we'll have to go beyond the market. We can establish
community land trusts to gradually buy up housing on the
private market and convert it to community ownership. We can
give tenants the right a first refusal to buy out
their landlords when buildings go up for sale. And we
can fully commit to a new era of social housing,
ending subsidies for luxury housing development and using our wealth

(01:07:53):
to build beautiful, high quality social housing projects that offer
good homes and strong communities to everyone. We won't decommodify
housing overnight. But we know what we have to do,
and we have history to guide us.

Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
We do have history to guide us. We sure do scary.

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
We have history to guid us. In history, it's always
been really bad for the people.

Speaker 2 (01:08:14):
Is he Ai generating? We don't know. Yeah, so well,
at least the guy.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
It kind of goes back to I remember some of
the things that Obama did involving how he governed and
the way that he turned us into a nation that
should feel guilty about our success, not feel like that
any of it was earned, or that the system that
allowed people to maximize their potential through maximum liberty warts

(01:08:43):
and all that we should be ashamed of ourselves, not
proud of anything. But I remember when people would complain
about that, I would say, well, he told you who
he was and everything he said and wrote, why are
you surprised that he's now governing the way he said
he would?

Speaker 2 (01:08:58):
I would say the same thing about this cat. I
don't like him.

Speaker 1 (01:09:02):
I think he's a disaster, and I think he'll be
a disaster for the city of New York if they
decide to elect him. But he's not hiding who he is.
And if that's what they want, then they can suffer
the consequences. But uh, he's he's not being sneaky at all.
Now he's put it all out there as usual. This
is communist propaganda that we've seen throughout the ages.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
I mean, this is there.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
They've done this propaganda over and over again, where they
just promise you this wonderful world and this anti all
these evil tyrannical wealthy people and all their business minds
and the and the let the government take over everything
so they can create this government run utopia for the
good of all mankind and for the good of the

(01:09:46):
down trodden. And you're gonna be living in that fancy
apartment that some evil rich person has. And then it
just turns out that the ruling class have a party
and you get and you and you get to live
in you know, mediac with all the other peasants.

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
But if that's what you want, that's what the voat's
all about.

Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
So next somebody says, hey, Rick, did you see this
in New York the ten foot tall pink foot fountain?

Speaker 2 (01:10:14):
Uh? No, I did not. I did not see this.

Speaker 6 (01:10:16):
Yeah, so you I only know about this because My
wife told me about it. When we went to New
York for our fifth anniversary. We went and did this
walk on the high Line, and I believe I saw
you there as well. It's like an old historic freight line,
elevated freight line that they actually converted into just like
a walking part.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Did see that?

Speaker 7 (01:10:37):
Nice walk? Nice nice setup, like.

Speaker 2 (01:10:39):
The plants planted there in the track former track stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:10:42):
You're not down amongst all the break dust. And I
see which, by the way, the in big cities, everybody
talks about the smog.

Speaker 7 (01:10:50):
Nobody's talking about the brake dust like it's bad, y'all.
It's it's bad. It's bad, y'all. To use a scientific term,
it's bad, y'all.

Speaker 6 (01:10:59):
Yeah, the I was wondering if you if you saw
this rick, did you see like a pink place where
you can pedal your feet on a pedal, a bike pedal.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
If I saw that, I would have not paid any
attention to it.

Speaker 6 (01:11:14):
Okay, Well, the bike pedal then is run to a
fountain and if you pedal it, then water shoots out
of the top of this fountain that looks like a
big pink foot.

Speaker 7 (01:11:25):
And I was just wondering if you saw this rick because.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
No imp to look at the toes if you don't.

Speaker 7 (01:11:40):
Get the whole thing that's supposed to.

Speaker 2 (01:11:42):
Be the shin wo Yeah I can.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
I guess they didn't notice the foot because I know
a lot of people from the Pride parade begin to
gather around.

Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
It like it was a god. Yeah. So yeah, yeah,
so that makes a lot more sense. It makes a
lot more sense. Yes, so said, I hate to disappoint you.
It's a it's a leg, it's.

Speaker 7 (01:12:04):
A foot, y'all.

Speaker 2 (01:12:06):
That's some weird people. They know what they were doing.
They did.

Speaker 7 (01:12:11):
Are some sickos.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
Weird people, man, what are the bumps coming?

Speaker 6 (01:12:15):
Bumps or tongues? Guys all my bump there's some sickies
out there. What's wrong with.

Speaker 2 (01:12:25):
But really going there in a lot of ways that
they think they're so modern, but they're so backed in time.

Speaker 1 (01:12:31):
I thought about everyone of y'all. I really I tried
not to laugh because knew it wouldn't go over well.
You know, if you're in the subway and you're down there,
you know, they basically put you in these freight elevators
to get you down from the tunnel back up to
the street. You know, so people just pack in there
because nobody wants to wait for the next one. And
if you're claustrophobic, this is not for you.

Speaker 2 (01:12:51):
Anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:12:54):
And of course there's someone standing over in the side
and everybody's everybody's packing.

Speaker 2 (01:12:58):
In and they're just move on, were moving, Look, get
out of here. All of a sudden, I hear this
very feminine voice ready for the PRIP parade. And this
is where we all get COVID. And uh, I'm like, gosh,
he's still in. He's still he's still in pandemic mode.
And this is where we all get COVID. And with
your New York accent, you said, get.

Speaker 7 (01:13:20):
Out of here.

Speaker 2 (01:13:23):
I can't believe you're talking about COVID. All right, So
on the list, all right.

Speaker 7 (01:13:30):
I just wondering if I could see it or thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:13:32):
No, if I saw it, that would have been one
of my stories on my recap. I trust you, but
thank you for allowing me a good line here the
day after.

Speaker 2 (01:13:40):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:13:40):
Now, this is we talked about this yesterday. This, praise God,
this rescue of the little girl who fell overboard five
years old off the Disney cruise. Adler now has some
footage of the rescue Uh, and uh, it was. It
was intense, but thank goodness, it has a happy ending.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
But here's here's some like.

Speaker 1 (01:14:05):
Yeah, so they got the boat. This is the boat
we're seeing those of you that can't see. There's a
yellow boat that came off the ship. Uh, it's it
gets it gets to the water, and I look, they're
way out there. He and his daughter are floating. Uh,
he's gone to see right there, y'all. Look he was
way out He's way way out there.

Speaker 2 (01:14:25):
That boat ain't stopping when you fall off. Now it's
way away from you. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
And so they see them out there and look at this.
Dad still has her head up above the water out
there in the in the water and you.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
Neither one have floatation device. Yeah, and he's treading, he's
holding and there they are. Guys, look at that rescue.

Speaker 5 (01:14:43):
Now, you know we were talking yesterday. How in the
world could this happen? Is the rumors true that he
set her up on the on the.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
That that was on the text line? So I have
not no one. I'm like y'all have how did you fall? Then?
I haven't seen anything that tells us how she feel.
I mean, there's no rail on a unless you climb
up on it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
Now, Yeah, to fall off a ship, you you have
to put yourself in some sort of compromising position. And
maybe the child climbed up there on their own and
somebody just was looking away from it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:14):
I don't know. I have no idea. I'm just so
thankful that it that it had a happy ending too.
But I will tell you this, if the dad.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
Is involved in any way, his wife is going to
remind him of this the rest of his life. Absolutely,
even though he did yes, but and he'll keep bringing
that up. But but it's it's gonna be a that
one's gonna that one's gonna come back on every time.
And now I don't know that he had any neglect. Well,
I have no idea, but so it may have just

(01:15:44):
been you know, I know everybody thinks that everybody can do.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
Things perfectly all the time. You just don't live in
that kind of world, now, you know. So, uh, we'll
be back. McDonald prices from nineteen ninety one.

Speaker 1 (01:16:04):
That's a hurt you feeling, Having noted discussion among nostalgic millennials,
Burner millennials always involved everything, and they're saying that I
have not eaten at McDonald's and I don't know when
a while.

You had a bag and you ate? You ate McDonald's
like the burgers or something like that, Adler you got

We went to Burger King Saturday. Because here's what you get,
I said, which somebody McDonald's. But yeah, go ahead. Well
but that's as close as I can get. Yeah, but
at this age, you can't just order. I want a cheeseburger,
but I want cheese and nothing else and just a
piece of meat, right, so okay, And then every everybody's

(01:17:09):
order was like that. They won't just ordistrated, no, no way.
But what they're saying is all right, So they're they're
they're saying the food costs more, but doesn't taste as good. Now,
who come up with that? That's that's I don't know,
that's these people.

Speaker 1 (01:17:23):
These these they're saying that they've been on Reddit and
they're reminiscing about how cheap fast food was at one time,
and they're lamenting how much it's risen since their childhood.
But it tastes worse, so they said, they said they
at one time, McDonald's feast once I don't know what

(01:17:44):
the feast is once cost only twelve dollars, including ninety
nine cents for medium fries, seventy nine cents for a cheeseburger,
and a dollar eighty five for a big mac. Wow,
some days are gone. In nineteen ninety one file of
fish a dollar twenty nine? How are we going that
there's nothing for a dog fish? I don't like fish sandwiches.

(01:18:05):
I didn't think so fast food rest. Never never eat
a fish sandwich anywhere, wouldn't No, no way, and afraid.

Speaker 7 (01:18:12):
Can I see the ocean?

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):

That's what I'm talking. I'm not having any fish sandwich.
I mean, here's McDonald's and we got fish there. Come on,
no to me to me. The flail fish was delicious.
I didn't mind it, but it was I did feel
like I was doing a food there. And normally they
got pretty popular. But if you would order it, you'd
had to pull over because they had to cook it

(01:18:34):
or something.

Speaker 1 (01:18:35):
Anyone twenty nine cents hamburgers, thirty nine cents cheese, you
have me?

Speaker 2 (01:18:39):
I remember those?

Speaker 1 (01:18:40):
Yeah, that's when Speedy would eat there. That was so
they're saying today that make chicken in California is over
four dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:18:50):
Let me tell you, if you want to have a
sticker shock, you've been to water Burger, it'd be what burger?

Speaker 8 (01:18:54):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:18:55):
The biggest sticker shock I've had on the hamburgers. Five guys.
It's like, okay, nobody's in there. I looked.

Speaker 1 (01:19:01):
I looked to see if the if the the buns
were not just golden brown, but true gold. You thought
you'd actually, I'm not what any world are y'all making
these burgers with. Yeah that's a good burger, but boy,
heyin that good it's not what a burger is more
French fries than you can ever eat.

Speaker 6 (01:19:17):
This commercial from the eighties is going viral. This McDonald's
commercial from the eighties. It has two guys in a
truck with hats on. See if you remember this commercial to.

Speaker 2 (01:19:26):
McDonald's and may I take your honor? I'd like Big
Mac value pack. Make it too, please? Hey, what's that?

Speaker 2 (01:19:50):
If I don't remember that pack either, I don't remember that.
I don't either.

Speaker 1 (01:19:54):
I think this is one of those things where something
people claim they remember something that never happened.

Speaker 2 (01:19:58):
I think it's a trick. I've never seen that. Merciall.

Speaker 7 (01:20:00):
It's a trick, as they say. That's from nineteen eighty five?
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:20:06):
And I was hating a lot of McDonald's in nineteen
eighty five? That it's when crystals, God, i'd hit a
crystal or a Dell Taco wide open.

Speaker 6 (01:20:16):
Yeah, nineteen eighty five. My dad was trying to talk
to my mom, oh wow, asking her about her day,
making sure she's the emotionally.

Speaker 2 (01:20:32):
Feeling great, all right.

Speaker 7 (01:20:34):
I was sure she's feeling loved. Have you had any
I was born in nineteen eighty.

Speaker 2 (01:20:39):
Four, making it weird, and I was born in the
year nineteen eighty five, making it weird.

Speaker 7 (01:20:43):

do this marriage proposal here? Do we think we can
do it? Y'all want to do it? It's y'all's call
on that.

Speaker 5 (01:21:02):
I know how these weather storm chasing people are weird
on their stuff. But we had a storm chaser that
was streaming live and captured what he thought was a couple.
Guy was proposing to his girlfriend, apparently, and he caught
it while streaming live. It was in South Dakota and

(01:21:24):
it was right in front of a tornado. Yeah yeah, yeah,
right right there. And so this storm chaser, who is
known as I think Max Velocity his that's his nick
that's his storm chasing name.

Speaker 10 (01:21:41):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:21:41):
Anyway, there's a tornado that's off in the distance and
I don't know which way it's coming, if it's at
them or what. And it looks as though they he
just proposed to this lady.

Speaker 7 (01:21:52):
They're taking a selfie.

Speaker 1 (01:21:53):
Rick, Okay, so yeah, I wasn't sure, you know, be
sure to get the tornado in the sailwout.

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
Alright, But what I want to ask, though, yes she did.
Let's talk about marriage.

Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Let's talk about the male female, Let's talk let's talk
about the male female dynamic, and let's talk about marriage.

Speaker 2 (01:22:08):
Is this the imagery? Right? We're discussing that I don't
know that I want to start our life together in
front of a tornado.

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
Yeah, I mean to me, that's that's not the same
I want to I want to start life together on
maybe a nice cool breeze river callbalt Blue Skies. Uh,
maybe near some water with a beautiful sunny day.

Speaker 2 (01:22:33):
What are we saying?

Speaker 1 (01:22:34):
We're proposing in a tornado? Do you want to marry
somebody that thought it was romantic to propose to you
in front of a tornado on the ground that represents
They said.

Speaker 5 (01:22:43):
It was a couple of one hundred yards away, and
it was Page and and Bryce are their names, and
uh they did confirm that he did propose, okay, in
front of a tornado.

Speaker 2 (01:22:59):
And imagine what they're going to on a baby predict
my mom, I'm so excited. I'm sorry, I'm emotional. You
believe he just proposed to me. Oh, tell me all
about it, honey, Please tell me. Was it romantic? Oh?
So romantic? I think n F one, maybe F two.
He got on the knee.

Speaker 1 (01:23:16):
Why it was the tornado coming at us across the
field and he just right there, you know, with a
tornado bearing down on us on the ground, causing havoc
and destroying lives. He he asked me to marry him.
How romantic? Its emotional? I can't even I can't even
contain myself.

Speaker 2 (01:23:33):
Is that what we want?

Speaker 7 (01:23:35):
And then we listened to riding the storm out right?

Speaker 2 (01:23:38):
Is that what they're gonna have at their wedding?

Speaker 7 (01:23:40):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:23:40):
I just don't think this is a It's not a
great is not the No, I don't think this is
what we're looking for.

Speaker 1 (01:23:46):
Uh So, also some other things that we have not
touched on today that that are out there. So I'm
looking at twelve here, Adler. This this seems like because
I know we all, every single one of us moments
where you stop and you think to yourself, what is
ed Ozeran doing right now?

Speaker 7 (01:24:05):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:24:06):
Everything? Coach? It is tigers? I mean, do you ever
think yourself. I wonder what he's doing right now, I
mean chilling out. He's not coaching. No, he's not. Remember
he took the money.

Speaker 1 (01:24:18):
He was back in Louisiana, Louisiana last night to celebrate
a former Tiger's staffers wedding in Nowlan's.

Speaker 2 (01:24:27):
And let's have a look. Here's some footage of him.

Speaker 7 (01:24:30):
Sorry, that should have said this last weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:24:33):
Last weekend. I'm sorry. Here we go.

Speaker 7 (01:24:34):
He's gonna do a toast, okay, and then their music
is gonna kick up and things are gonna get weird.

Speaker 2 (01:24:40):
All right, here we go, all right, here we go.
He's taking his shirt on.

Speaker 7 (01:24:49):
The dance floor.

Speaker 1 (01:24:53):
Dancer ed his shirtless elevator right there, and uh can't
get his hand out of the sleeve, struggling with a hand.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
Sleep didn't nothe button asleep and took his shirt off. Now, God,
I may be guessing here. I saw the headline last week.
I think he had to give his ex wife eight million. Whoa,
that'll make you dance? Eight million? I think that, you
know from the tornado again? Uh, I think eight million?

Speaker 1 (01:25:23):
I think I may made that so when he walked
away he was married to her when when they when
the l s U said here's the here's what we'll
pay you to walk.

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:25:30):
Didn't he get divorced shortly after that?

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
Yeah? Yeah, wasn't here. There were some bad yeah videos
that came out.

Speaker 1 (01:25:35):
Yeah, but anyway, I thought I may have made that
up or dreamed it, but I thought I saw the
headline said that I think she got like eight million.

Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
Let's say you had a friend. Let's just say all right,
good night?

Speaker 7 (01:25:47):
Right again, he's in a Supreme court eight point one
three million?

Speaker 2 (01:25:51):
Yeah? Sorry, Greg? Do you do it out there? Why
do we die? I feel bad? I try to like
I'm not right. I know, I'm lamb right again.

Speaker 6 (01:26:03):
So Kelly is entitled to half of the seventeen million
dollar buyout that he got.

Speaker 2 (01:26:08):
Oh, I've heard, because remember he was tickled about his buyout.
Remember he was making jokes. We all said he was
just being honest, going like, yeah, I'll take the money
and run. How much was about again, seventeen So she's
getting eight of it. But you know, when you think
of what caused his marriage to go downhill, Okay, the
behavior and the fact that he couldn't do well again

(01:26:28):
after that, I've never seen a guy. He reminded me
of Buster Douglas of coaching. Oh yeah, it was the
Buster Douglas of coaching. You're the heavyweight champion. Do you
think you can retain it? Absolutely not. I will lose soon.
But this got a big money. All I wanted to
do was to make the big money. And I'm out.

Speaker 1 (01:26:44):
I've never seen anybody try less to do to have
a good season. Yeah he had that one, really really
good team.

Speaker 2 (01:26:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:26:51):
But anyway, you ever think about, hey man, how said
ed doing? You think, you know, maybe he's got his
life together after you know, thing with the divorce and
all that. And then you see this video.

Speaker 2 (01:26:59):
When was this? I'm sorry this was last weekend? Yes,
this is with his shirt. Take his shirt off.

Speaker 1 (01:27:04):
This is not the sign that the adjustments in life
that need to be made or being made. He's I
mean he got shirtless quick. I mean quick.

Speaker 5 (01:27:12):
He tried to like do a sexy unbutton and then
he said, I'm just gonna throw.

Speaker 2 (01:27:15):
It up my show. So he got his hands hung
and he couldn't get him out. Yeah, Greg, Greg, I'm
pretty sure I think you'll agree. I think coach Oh
thinks he's fine.
