Speaker 3 (04:00):
I'm looking at it right now. It's Victoria's lawn care
and Handyman Services.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
How about shout out to Camden about Camda bull good
deer hunting down there. They're up already, yeah, man, they
already already moving. So so that's good. And we have
a lot to cover on the program today. Have y'all
ever been well?

Speaker 4 (04:21):
You probably say no because we're always working during the week,
But let's say you have an off day or the weekend.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Have you ever been early morning workout? People? When you can.
I've done it and it does it's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
I remember you went prior to the show starting over
the Planet Fitness when we were close to it.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, we didn't have to kick off ours, so I
didn't have to come in. Yeah, quite as early as
we did now. But yeah, if you can do it,
and it's hard to get yourself, get motivated when you
get finished, and get your shower right, get the days.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Because Huntsles reached out in the F three and hunts
they're up there already, They're already up. I have respect
for people that have that motivation of I'm getting up.
I don't have to be at work for three hours,
but I'm not working out.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yeah I have. I have, couldn't it. I've got I've
got friends that do that. But at the time that
we have to, I have been doing it. You can't
do it at two thirty like a Saturday morning. Yeah,
I guess. I guess I started doing morning uh in
nineteen maybe ninety ninety one, somewhere in there. Yeah, so

(05:29):
you might remember the Morning Get Stravaganza. Yeah you heard it.
Who couldn't You may have heard of that, but anyway,
and I did not. I was not living a life
that was suitable for that schedule and I don't know
it nearly I nearly died. But but the but looking back,
so it's been so long since that was even an
you know, I didn't care about working out till like

(05:52):
the last what five years, I mean, so, you know,
I've never been in a position we're working out early,
even being off even considered it would be considered. So
but I do, I do. I do envy those who
do it because I see the benefit of it. Yeah, yes,
I love the way I feel after a workout, after
the shower. It'd be great if I was headed to

(06:12):
work with that kind of attitude. Yeah, yeah, everything's already flowing.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Really.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
I had the hot rocking DJ job before this job,
and I had had to be there at ten, and
for a short amount of time I was able to
work out from eight thirty to nine. Nice and if
you got a pump all day, you know what I'm saying.
I mean, it's not it's everybody's like that guy's.

Speaker 6 (06:32):
Jacked, look at it.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, you must work out before work right, right. I
only work out in the afternoons, and it's that's about
his gloomy as it could be.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
Yeah, right, it is, it is now because your day
is not quite over now getting it out when you're finished,
it's gloom and j C now that he's in the
real world and working, he's trying to contemplate that because
he's like, by the time you get off work at five,
and then you get through traffic to try to get somewhere,
and then you work out, you get home at seven o'clock,

(07:03):
seven thirty.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
And that also makes you want to go I ain't going.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Yeah, there's something to getting it done early, No doubt
there's that benefit too.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
If I was a nine to five guy, I'd be
a morning guy. Yeah, and you show up refreshed. Oh yeah,
I mean yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
But sometimes working out later in the day messes up
my head, especially if it's something like jiu jitsu, because
I used to go before I had kids. I'd go
from seven to eight to jiu jitsu, and I know
it was the only time I could, and I would
be in the shower, like, how that guy get me
like that? You know, it's just like your mind is racing.
I couldn't shut it down.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
How did that guy?

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Like killer instinct was still fiery.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
I should have shot the half nels, I should have
grabbed his gee and pulled him down.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
I should have put it on meal.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
She had me in a hold. How'd she get me?
She was a boy?

Speaker 3 (07:47):
Was she strong?

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Boy? Talk trash to But I will tell you being
a late afternoon workout person with the alarm clock seid
at three point fifteen, Now, I will tell you the
benefit of this. You're going to sleep? Said you have
any trouble going to sleep? No, I bet not. But
these Saturday morning people too. I don't know you've ever

(08:09):
been out give it a Saturday. I tell you that there.
The gyms are full on Saturday morning. I'll run on
Saturday mornings. But it's like when I say morning is
ten ten thirty, I'll go for a brisk I'll go
for a brisk walk on Saturday. That's it.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
The walking trails are very full on Sunday morning. I've noticed.
I'll be on my way to church. People don't love Jesus,
and I'll say, well, okay, so y'all have the lates,
little little Maybe they're going to the lates.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Maybe they're getting the early Maybe they went to the
early early service. Maybe they're walking to be energetic for
the service.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Maybe there are a bunch of libs.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
There's that too. There's that too. Maybe there's maybe there's
some of these people that like don't realize that, you know,
everybody goes to church on Sunday morning, not to day
sometime later. Yeah. Right, but look, let's just be honest.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
These these garage workout folks and and y'all, y'all are
out there that motivation it's easy to roll over. But
you get up and go and I'm going to the garage.
And because you've got your system, swing, you got your
you like you set up in.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
The garage or an extra room.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Oh yes, those people, you're not going anywhere. You just
walking across the house at four o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
That's the way to do it, really.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
Now, I will tell you because I'm a workout room person. Yeah,
and it's not a very big room or elaborate main stretch,
but it's got the basics that you need. That's a
different kind of discipline because you walk in there. You
can't sit down and watch Davie. You walk in there
and you've got your phone with the workout on it,

(09:37):
and you know who decides whether you're gonna do it
or not, that'd be you. I'm gonna watch I'm gonna
watch just one thing on TV, and then I'm getting up.
I noticed, I notice here that the trainer Sean has
written thirty second rest in between. But you know, forty
five seconds feels a lot better here. Yeah, minutes between
those two feels great. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
Plus I have to stretch for thirty minutes before my
work out because I'm a thousand years old now, so
I need an hour and a half now for you know,
an hour workout.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
That's right. I forgot somewhere. I forgot about Mike. He's
working on Muscle Mike. Muscle Mike's on.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
A tree right, walks out to the tree with his
vans and goes at it.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Well, he vanished from our lives, didn't he? Well, yeah,
he kept up. He uh he made takes it a
little bit after that. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
He and his family loved the show. It works out
on tree, y'all.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
He was like, why are y'all so obsessed with me?
I kind of weirding me out.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
He didn't like that kind of attention, But.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Yeah, sorry about that.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
I found him to be intriguing.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
We just were interested in his bod. What's weird about that?

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Nothing?

Speaker 6 (10:38):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
By the way, this is surprising. We're back speedy, Greg
Gambler all here. You know, when you think about the
audience for this show, based on our history and all
the Rick and Bubby years, it's shocking how many people
who work out love this show. Yeah, and that's something
you know, because this show seems to represent such a

(11:07):
lack of discipline. Maybe I love those guys. I don't
want to end up like them. There you could be
but always be a bad example. Nobody's completely the four Well,
we can't. We'd all. You know. I made some major
changes needed to make, some major changes needed to And
you know, I'm certainly not some you know, radical by
any stretch, but it's it's radical to the way I

(11:31):
used to live. I mean, you know, the way I
live now compared to how I did, I think that
would be a radical trip. But anyway, one of the things,
I mean, looking at some of these people, they listen
to the show and it it kind of it cares them.
I mean, how about get up at three twenty, get
get to the gym at three fifty ish, fourish, start
work at six. Wow, listen to all five.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
I won't see how many days straight? Four hundred and
twenty nine days straight?

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Well done? Wow, well it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
Yeah, let me tell you when it's sad, change your
life in four hundred twenty nine days, you can totally
radically change your body and your life.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
You have, Greg, Greg didn't believe him, you know, and
I knew you said that. That's a big number. I mean,
you're never sick, you never. I mean, come on, I
know that is a big number. Big number. But uh yeah,
about all the things that you encounter in four hundred
and some days, Greg, Yeah, let me let me tell
you anything. It ain't not being good, but it's real.

(12:26):
Think about it. Count that many days. You're telling me
you've never had a something that happened Christmas.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
That would mean you worked out on Christmas holiday.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Just I'm sick. Okay, now I'm with Gregor he didn't
work out four and they weren't had a bunch of days.
I'm sure what if he just said you four hundred
and twenty nine days that were available to me to
work out, I didn't miss.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
That's probably what he means, you know, So wow, that's
probably what he means.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
No, I was on a work day, Yeah, let me
tell me. You know you're getting older. Is when the doctor,
if I propose that I worked out every day, he
would say, I don't think that's good for you. Yeah,
that's true. That's when you're your body couldn't take that.
Please don't do that, you know, just don't be sedentary,
but don't get crazy. That's right looking today. Also a
little update. You know, we all had to be obsessed

(13:10):
over this Phillies fan that stole the ball from the kid,
and the family was so affected by it. They only
ended up with a new RV and signed baseball bats
from the Phillies and an entire package from the Marlin.
So the poor kid, I don't Ohio get through it hurt.
An interview with the kid and the dad, did you
really yeah?

Speaker 4 (13:30):
And they were like, I can't believe all this has happened,
which is weird too by the way he goes, next
thing I know, we're standing there in front of the
Phillies players going, what the world you.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Know, crab f I'm wrong. In a few weeks back then,
we have a hat incident that was close to the
same thing. I don't remember being blown this much out
of proportion. Yeah, Tennis it was tennis and he threw
a hat to a kid and the guy reaching her
and yanked.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
And I yeah, no, they actually did docks. You know,
he did give it back. You guys know what doxing is,
right when you, yeah, publicly name a person like that.
Was before that they were kind of anonymous. Uh yeah,
he was like a CEO of some Polish companies. So
they grilled him, really really.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Got pretty hard. But I think he did give the
hat back though. By the way, just just in the
Phillies caring is she's now being known. This is just
in plans to steal Christmas from whovill have you all
heard about this? Uh so? No so anyway, but yeah,
the thing I've never heard the word docks and what

(14:30):
I say her by saying, which is the same thing.
Let's make this person famous exactly. Yeah, and yeah, if
I'm wrong, I've got my torch.

Speaker 6 (14:37):
Who are we going to destroy today?

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah? The people powered the Internet? Did she not come
out and say that she's not a Phillies fan? Now
this is different, headed no different. Here a person has
been misidentified as the Phillies person.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
That's what he's saying, that she's really the one that's
misidentified as a Red Sox fan.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Right, yeah, but it sounds like he was saying the
woman herself was her is not a Phillies fan at all.
We've misidentified the person in our attempt to docs it
makes someone famous. We've gone after the wrong person, canceled
that person. We've gone. We've ruined the life of a woman.
Who who who says? By the way, that's not even me,
you idiots, guys. It's bad enough if I'd have done it.

(15:15):
But that's what happens when we take on this crazy
mob mentality with you. You burn down the wrong person's house. Yeah,
you know, and you passionately maybe we should you were wrong,
but you're passionately wrong. So as you have said, guys,
they thought they found the woman's name. Well, when they
thought they found the woman's name, they've they've they've named

(15:36):
the wrong person. Well why would you go to all
the trouble anyway, my goodness? Thank you know what? Some
people are rude? You've got the ball whatever. I said
that yesterday while you while you were at the breakfast,
I said, guys, come on, the way the person acted
was rude. That's the end of it. See, we got
rude people. Hey, how about this? Got a lot of them,

(15:57):
don't you know? There's some there's some rabid fan dying
right now in intensive care, going, what have I got
to do to get the Phillies to bring me a
sign back?

Speaker 6 (16:05):
Yeah, exact.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
If a woman just be rude to me, I can
get everything I ever wanted. So so anyway, yeah, yeah,
people we were talking about yesterday. There's two ends of
the spectrum, which the second one. I was like, if
Greg was here, he'd be I said, I Greg was here,
he'd be claiming that the Dad and the sun set
this all up so they could get stuff that's possible.
I knew you with today's world first to know it.

(16:28):
The reaction to go out and they get a gofunding
for it and destroy the lives of people who are
caught doing rude things on video. And we're gonna let's go,
we gonna get making that that mob, that mob mentality
is one in the spectrum. And then the callers brought
it rightfully, so the overreaction to make it right for
the person that everybody treated rudely, And before you know it,

(16:48):
we've actually liked that. We're we're more concerned about that
boy and his dad than the woman who was slaughtered
in Charlotte in that sad yeah, and how about this,
I mean, what about trying to help her family, or
help those people, or get to take this evil, demonic
human being off the streets. And even though we had it,
we had him fourteen different times, and we keep letting

(17:09):
him out. He's I'm going to go as far as
you say, I think the guy who stabs somebody possessed
by demons that was just sitting in front of him
on public trans transit, I'm gonna say that person we
should be more concerned about than a rude lib who
was a Phillies fan. I think our passion should maybe

(17:31):
be after that kind of evil as opposed to we
can all make fun of the rude woman and say
how rude. Yeah, those kind of people get on our nerves.
All that kind of stuff. That's perfectly for It's not
some event, but we've turned it into must be found,
must be quartered. I mean, what are we talking in
this weird Munchausen world. Somebody will fake it. They'll have

(17:54):
somebody set up to steal the ball from them. They're
both in I mean, I'm just saying because the world's nuts. Oh,
I don't think though. I want to be on there too.
I want to be a victim. I want some lady
that stealed ball for me. Then I get a bunch
of coe stuff. Yeah. So, anyway to to update you, Uh,
the woman that we identified as the Phillies fan is
the wrong person. She said, I'm not the crazy Philly mom.

(18:17):
I said. I said, I'd love to be as famous
as her this fast. I'm a Red Sox fan. Y'all
have got the wrong person. So we now we've named
a person that isn't even the woman. Who would have
thought that an angry mob would be reckless? Yeah, they
didn't fact check a little matters. Yeah, somebody said they

(18:39):
heard the kids getting the key to the city today.
I wouldn't wouldn't surprised me. Artists are going to have
a concert for this dad and this and this boy. Uh,
we'll be back. Let me tell you what when when

Speaker 4 (22:03):
A man in Canada was arrested after he was driving
down the road through town and a child sized pink
Barbie g. Police arrested him for driving with suspended license
and d u y. It is considered a toy car
is considered a motor vehicle. He was driving on the
sidewalk until a closed lane came open and he drove

(22:26):
on the side of the road. Greg and he his
name is Andrew whatever. I'm not sure, but some onlookers
were describing what it was like and the man you
heard him saying, Hey, this is I was just trying
to get something slurpy.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
I want to just want to get it a slurpy.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
I got lazy, I didn't want to walk.

Model number Barbie g this, Like I said, he must
not be very big. He's not. He's not. That's a
tiny little fellow. Yeah. I mean if I sat on
the Barbie jeep, the Barbie jeep, did you get that
be roll? Okay you did? Didn't know? And I know

be able to ride on one of these? Yeah?

totally flat or downhill, yes, I would not make.

Speaker 1 (23:32):

things where I think you get your wake up call.

me when did you turn it around? Well? I wanted
a slurpee and I drove my daughters to lay Barbie

Barbie Gee versus walking, walking is better?

Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah, because he claims he got lazy, but I don't know,
it seems like more work.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
By the way, I'm digging the idea that he said
that he when he saw lane available, he left the
sidewalk and got into traffic.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
So although mine is an older model, you know, it's
probably seven eight, he's I mean, they're they're getting better
all the time. The text getting better, power wheels.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
You know what I'm mean. Yeah, while we're talking about
drunks speedy, we might as well go to Letcher County
where you telling me a nurse has revived a drunk, Yeah,
by using a CPR. The drunk was found in a dumpster. Yes,
now it's not over. It's tough, it's not over. Uh.
The drunk a raccoon, A raccoon.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
We had a dumpster with some fermented peaches in Kentucky
from a moonshine distillery, and we had some baby raccoons
that were in the uh, in the dumpster and were
dangerously drunk. This is quite the character and a nurse
that helped save one of the babies.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Same.

Speaker 7 (25:19):
So our health apartment is right beside of Kentucky. Miss Moonshine.
They had put some fermented peaches in their dumpster, and
I guess the two baby raccoons had got into the
dumpster and they were stuck. Everybody that was a realm
was like, it's dead. I mean, it's just not gonna
make it. Immediately, I just started CPR on it. I

(25:41):
was tickled to death that he was able to join
its mom again. That poor little raccoon. I hope it
stays out of dumpsters.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
It's still not responding. Those of you that can't see
you West compressions. We are looking at it right now. Uh,
there is a raccoon after and she's doing CPR on it. Man,
we got plenty of raccoons, we do. Yeah, honestly, this
was a blessing that we were losing two raccoons.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
Yeah, okay, this is what this is what would happen
to me. I would try to revive it, and I'd
be working on it, and as soon as it came
to it turned and it'd bike and stitches and my
left my left finger and I'd get raby.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
So let's be honest, it's a It's a good thing
they got to him, because if they had sobered up
a little bit on their own, probably would have terrorized
Taco Bell, you know it. Sure when they had a
little something, that dump boy, they got him right before
they got on the phone start calling women in town lines.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
You got to hear this. Here's this lady saying, come on, baby,
come on, baby, to this raccoon that has passed out drunk.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Come on, come on, baby, come on the joint.

Speaker 6 (27:00):
If you just.

Speaker 4 (27:01):
Joined us, Oh you don't want to know, hey, you
don't want to start it. You don't want to pull
it back and hear the patent, because at first she
was like, right right, call it back to the beginning.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Raccoon, Guys, the footage I'm watching doesn't did.

Speaker 7 (27:18):
I mean, it's just not gonna make it. And it
was it was not breathing, and it had drowned and
it was slow water, like you could feel the water
in it. So, I mean, immediately I just started doing
CPR on it.

Speaker 8 (27:30):
Suddenly a sign of life, come on.

Speaker 6 (27:34):
Come on baby, come on.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
All right, okay, all right, it's already all that raccoon
is so passed out.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Where is the sign of life? Sunday showed sign I
saw it. I never saw it that things will still
lay in there. I'm like, will you get this crazy
woman off me? And I said later embarrassing pictures of
him his friends took. Lost his job over, lost this
job over? Wow. Wow, We'll be right back. The fall

(28:16):
line is coming any day now. I'll keep you updating
on that. Some some cool new stuff making its way
to the store here, uh this fall uh, and of
course stuff coming up for Christmas eason. Can you believe
we're saying that now? I mean I was noticing that.
You know how we talk about every year, Uh, we
usually get into this deal about you know how we are.
We turned to the Griswolds with our our you know,

(28:38):
lighting and all this and the company that that does that.
I mean they've already sent me, hey, if you want
your lights, we need to know right now we need
and we need it by the end of September. And
I'm like, what, I think I get a plan we're
already talking about Like what, Yeah, I mean we really
talking about practice, you know, I mean already uh up.

(29:00):
But yeah, yeah, it's here, I mean it is here.
I know it's I know, Greg shaking it's here.

Speaker 4 (29:07):
Yeah, I hate to tell you that, grinch so sadly
wish that and left them up for all you college
football fans, I mean, we're going to be in both
season for you know, it's.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
All away from us already. I feel it.

Speaker 4 (29:19):
Whenever we did the sports ours back in the day,
we'd always get so down because we would hype up
to the season and then once the season started with
blank and.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
It was over right. So I laughed so hard speaking
of that. And see if it's still there. So you know,
I have two sons that are big Auburn fans, and
and one of course played for Auburn, so that that's understandable.
But but there's always the running joke of what it's

(29:46):
like to be an Auburn fan. Oh well, I saw
what Blake post. That's that's hilarious. Yeah, And so Auburn
made the top twenty five this past season, and Blake
posted that and he said, oh, I'm ready to be delusional.

Speaker 4 (29:59):
Give Well, you get pulled in as a fan of
a team that is up and down through the years,
you know, you have your consistency serves and I feel,
I know, I don't know what that's like now.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
You have other fan bases. It's hard. I mean, yeah,
so it but what was trying to ignore it? So
you know, but he didn't do it Week one, Week one,
he didn't do it. I asked to get caught, he says,
but he said no, no, he said, what I'm looking
at right now? He said, I'm looking I'm I'm right now.
He said what I saw so far, I'm I'm I'm
and I'm still saying it as I'm excited about our

(30:34):
eight and four season. And he said, I think we
I think that's possible. I said, okay, we'll see. Hey,
can I clarify something to and hey, it's just on us.
I mean, we pulled the curtain back. We just tell
you the truth. We got a lot going on here.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
You know.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
We involved a lot of stuff, and I told Speedy
and some stuff that we are involved in. It was
was committed to so long ago we can't even remember
all the details. So I have been telling all of
you about me going to Boonville, Mississippi, Sunday night, and
that is still true at Gaston Baptist Church. But what
I have been telling you that is wrong is that

(31:10):
it's a men's event and it's not. This is actually
a family event that anybody can come to. So I
know a lot of time the ladies out there in
the audience, you're like, they're like, hey, man, every time
you go sweek somewhere, it's no lady's allowed. Well this
one is different. So if you are in that area
and you want to come Sunday night, it is free.
They want you to register, but to know how many

(31:31):
people are coming, because they got they're going to serve
you food at five and then the service is going
to start at six. So if or is it six
thirty anyway, I think six thirty, But anyway, it doesn't matter.
But you got to be there at five if you
want to eat. But it's free, but they need to
know you're coming so the whole family can go, all right.
I mean, I don't bring little kids. You're gonna holler
the whole time. But I mean, it's no. But what

(31:54):
I'm saying a lot of times, a lot of times
the women are like, well, I mean we called church,
they said we can come. You can come to this, yeah,
so for everybody. So so it is for everybody. It's
it's a family event. You have to change that message.
A little bit. It's still a little adjustment, Yeah, much
a little bit. Man. The men are sit of going.
We can't just consentrain them. So so I want to

(32:15):
also talk about I don't know you ever wonder sometimes
you know, we've been married long enough that you're that
our wives even though they're not as prone to practical
jokes as we are, but they will mess with you sometimes.
And so you know, we we all, you know, we
try to do a lot of public services here. You know,
we've we've gone out of our way to remind people

(32:36):
to you have their colonoscopy. Uh, We've gone out of
our way to tell men to be sure you somebody
stay on top of that prostate health. And of course
you and Greg have done your part to bring awareness
to staying on top of skin cancer, okay, with with
you know, normal dermatology. So so I have been doing

(32:57):
that so far. I hadn't had to deal with any
of it, thankfully, Greg has dad has speedy yours all yours.
I had that most treatment right here right. So anyways,
so so Sherry kept seeing something and she you gotta
have this check. So I went in again and I
was talking to you know, the dermatologists and the thing
she was concerned about. He was like, no, that's not

(33:19):
any big deal. He's he's a northern guy. Oh okay,
and he talks just like that right there. You know,
it's not a big deal. You know, I went to
see Springsting. You know, he's always going to concerts. But anyway,
and so I said, well, I said, I've noticed on
my nose. I said, there's a little discoloration. There's a
little part of my nose that every now and then
looks like it's not the same color the rest of

(33:39):
my nose.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Yeah, that's pre canterest. I'm gonna have to freeze that off.
And I'm like, he said, God, it's not cancer pre cancer.
I'm like, okay, And so he froze it off. Well,
of course, after you did that, it starts to scap
and now I've got in to my world. Now I've
got this thing on the end of my nose, and
I keep, like I said, I told you, I was
wondering what that was. No, when it does that, just

(34:01):
take a little you could even go to I don't know,
put a little cover on it or something, you know,
if you want. It's not it's not a big deal.
And and by the way, that is him and and
and I said, so, I was like, the first few
days it didn't really show, and now it's here and
so and Cherry keeps telling me, no, it's fine, you're good.
And I'm like, is she messing with me? I mean
she enjoys it now? Can you see it right there? Oh? Yeah,

(34:25):
it's pret cancers. But come back to me. We'll freeze
it today and come back to me. I you know,
before Christmas, we'll look at it again. May give it
another shot if we need to.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Not.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
It's fine. He's not gonna be able to play any
reindeer game.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
So right, is there anything more? Is there anything more
prominent than to have a scab on the end of
your note? Can you see it? Are you looking cross?
I can see it?

Speaker 3 (34:55):
Yeah, yeah, you need to put some talo on it?

Speaker 1 (34:57):
Straight up? There it goes. What is he's all about?
Just keep it moisturized? What was that? That's the doctor
doing the doctors? Are you kidding me? That was way off?

Speaker 3 (35:11):
So what he's I don't think he's getting through doctor school.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
What are you talking about that again? What? What is that?
I've never heard of it.

Speaker 3 (35:19):
Okay, Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (35:23):
Was just told just to kind of just keep a
little bit of just dot it with some basoline, just
to keep it.

Speaker 3 (35:29):
If you want to product, if you want to patrol
in product, you know.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
All right. Yeah, by the way, remind me pretty much.

Speaker 9 (35:36):
Gasoline you're putting on your body here we go, here
comes not tallow mister honey and honey honey on it.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
So anyway, I'm starting to put a fake nose on
like Rudolph. But you know, I learned the lesson that
I should just be who I am and one day
Santa will let me take us through the storm.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Try being bald and doing that, because like in mine's
always the top of the forehead, right right in front
of where the hairline would be. That's always in there.
Just like oh yeah, you can do the blue light
a wee can.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
Zappy a bunch of times.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
It's like just zap away right now, I come.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
Out like chicken pox.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
That feels so good when they do that too.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
Yeah, and that great.

Speaker 4 (36:19):
He had that nose feel when he did it. It
wouldn't it really wasn't, he said, Hall stale. You, I mean,
y'all may be a little more candy than I am.
But it wasn't that big a deal.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
And it was he like, life is like a box
of chocolate, because that's what you sound like, but it's not.
He doesn't sound like a doctor.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Come back in December top of the average. So now
I didn't get hurt do anything handy with my nose.
A couple of things to discuss opening up this hour.
Let's let's go a little bit newsy, but not too
terribly newsy.

Speaker 7 (36:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Let's start with number seven here, Adler uh, out of
the NFL. We already talked about money, not football last night. Yes,
we played the national anthem and of course Greg hated it.
But Terry Bradshaw now the term here heavy criticism? Yeah?
Is he?

Speaker 4 (37:14):
So people are that upset about it? And if you
don't know, could we give away something? Do you think
if people will guess it?

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Right?

Speaker 4 (37:20):
I don't think they could guess, like what he's in
trouble for. If you don't know, if you don ain't
got a clue, what could he possibly be in trouble for?

Speaker 1 (37:28):
And you think, hey, it's something pretty serious? Yeah, you
guess everybody's like, we got we must go get Terry
Bradshaw not as angry with him as we are at
the woman who took the ball from the kid. No,
but we're but we're pretty angry. Apparently we're not, but
the world is. Yeah, so let's hear you coming around
from the left light side to the left side. Paul
Washington takes it in from a nineteen yard touchdown, All

(37:50):
Redskins twenty one to six over the New.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
York Oh wait a minute, Oh he said Redskins instead
of Commando.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Oh no, no, dare him, Terry. Don't you know we've
changed that mascot and you cannot say Redskins anymore.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
Fire him immediately.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Heavy criticism, it says, they're heavy criticism.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Let me tell you something. If you have saved your
heavy criticism for Terry Bradshaw, the age he is as
long as he played in the NFL and as long
as he has been commenting on the NFL and ninety
percent of that existence, if not more than ninety they
were called the Redskins, and he happened to call them
the Redskins in a highlight. If that's the thing that

(38:34):
you said, that's it, you know, get on your knees
today and thank god you're that blessed of all the
things are going on, that's the one you're out there.
I'm waiting in on that. I'm gonna get that woman
and got the ball too.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
No, he needs to be debanked, yes, oh yeah, de platform.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
So what will happen?

Speaker 4 (38:51):
Will we have to come on in and apologize. I
wouldn't put it past it. I mean the higher ups
you know he was, he was, I'm sure sure. Don't
you think called out for it off air?

Speaker 1 (39:03):
Hey? Oh I can't do that. I'm sure I'd love
to hear his response to that off air. Okay, So
here we go with all. This is heavy and we
probably will get weigh in on this a little bit
on strange encounters Thursday, this horrifying murder in Charlotte on
public transit, the Ukrainian woman who came here to escape

(39:29):
all the war that was going on, asylum from everything
in Ukraine. I cannot pronounce her name, and I wish
I could, but I can't. But anyway, so of course,
you would think we would want to address the evil
that we now live in, just solely that that any

(39:51):
human being, regarded regardless of gender or ethnicity, that would
sit down behind another human being and be a fourteen time.
I've even heard seventeen is at fourteen fourteen, fourteen time
lawbreaker of various things, including on his criminal past. We

(40:13):
have a weapon being used in a robbery, we have threats.
He's the kind of guy that threatens people to the
point that he is criminally charged with unlawful threats. I'll
use weapons, I'll threat I'm a criminal, Okay, fourteen prior
rest fourteen. So maybe we would want to focus there

(40:38):
and focus on just the sheer evil of killing someone
in cold blood because they sat down in front of you,
even if the fact that he's apparently allegedly he said
something about the fact that she was a white woman
and all that.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
I don't but now on the mic you can hear
him say I got that white girl after he does, right.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
I just wanted to be sure that I was reporting
that correctly. I mean, I know that's interesting things and
that's provocative to talk about, but I wish we'd focus
on the fact that that kind of evil is in
our society, just like we said on the last shooter
and all these various heinous crimes that we see. But now,
of course it's turned into some sort of let's be

(41:19):
careful that we don't talk about you know, this is
become an indictment on black men. No, kiddie, it's becoming
an indictment on evil. And I'm sorry that he said
what he said, and I'm horrified that he did what
he did. But let's focus. You know, that really shouldn't

(41:40):
be something anybody's overly concerned about right now, because what
we got to be talking about is where in the
world do we live when things like this like fourteen
prior arrest and I still can't get on public transit
without worrying that the guy behind me is going to
put out a knife and cut my throat and kill
me and Cob blow. So here is let's go to

(42:02):
three E. So this is Greg gut Failed from Fox. Now.
I see it's two minutes, which is a little lengthy,
but he is going to take on Brian Stelter for
saying that talking too much about the killer being menly
eel and not wanting to take on the evil of

(42:22):
it all. So here is Greg gut Failed coming on.

Speaker 10 (42:26):
I'm tired also of the term mental illness being used
as a cover for criminality when a thug targets a woman.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
That is not insane. He knows she's weaker.

Speaker 10 (42:36):
When he comes from behind with a knife, that's not insane.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
He minimizes her ability to inflict harm on him.

Speaker 10 (42:44):
When the thug flees, that's sane, because he knows if
he stays, he'll be arrested. So what would be insane
would be if he were to face off against a
man without a weapon, somebody like a tyrist.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
That would be insane. You'd go, Okay, that's crazy.

Speaker 10 (43:00):
But almost all of these people that do this stuff,
they go after women. That is not insane, that self preservation.
This is not insanity. It's an evil mind. And it's
an evil mind that is somehow excused in a culture
that weaponizes victim's status in this case mental illness, mental illness,

(43:21):
And what is it about a society that contributes to this?
And I say this based on my own personal evidence
of being on city streets every single day, every single
day in New York, that when a homeless person is
shouting at.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
People, he's not shouting.

Speaker 10 (43:35):
I really made a mess of my life, boy, I
really screwed up. No, his aggression is purely blaming other
things and other people.

Speaker 2 (43:44):
He blames the world he blames people, he blames you.
So we're living in.

Speaker 10 (43:49):
A progressive ideological nightmare where the worst in society is
empowered by a sense of victimhood. So when this happens,
they will still get people like Brian Stelter that says, oh,
be careful of the racism, or other people saying, you
know what, we really need to be concerned about our
services to the mentally ill, which may or may not

(44:10):
be true.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
But he's not mentally ill. He needs to be executed.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
Agree.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
Yeah, see, it's different talking about mental illness. Now. I
do not think that all mental illness, as we've said
on Strange Encounters, is demonic. There are you know, the
brain is just like any part of our body. Sometimes
there's a chemical imbalance that people can be helped, but
this particular case is just wicked. So I'm not going
to be concerned about what Brian does. He wants to

(44:36):
make sure I choose my words a certain way. Brian,
this is not time to be worried about, you know,
the ethnicity of the situation. We got bigger problems than that,
And I agree with gut Failed it's not a time
to be worried about mental illness. Even though I do
think we are mental illness. The way we treated in
our country, it needs a.

Speaker 6 (44:55):
Lot of work.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
I agree with all that that doesn't apply to this.
This is about doing something about law and order and
protecting society from evil people and also asking hard questions.
As we have said over and over, when are we
going to take the spiritual part of all this series
and realize that we have dark, twisted evil and we

(45:18):
continue to fuel it by doing things that are are
evil ourselves. We are, our society creates these people, and
until we approach it from that angle, we're going to
solve nothing.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
And it's not just Stelter either, that is trying to
protect this these these people that do evil, and I'm
not it's doesn't I don't care what skin color you
are at all. But we talked yesterday about how the
New York Times and the AP, the Associated Press had
not covered this story at all. They had zero mentions
of it. Now they've finally jumped on it. But if

(45:56):
I go to AP here, you see they mentioned the story.
But the story is about the quote unquote maga backlash
towards black people. I know that's not what this is
even now, is the same with CNN video shows, fatal stabbing,
stirring up the crime, the MAGA crime debate. You're just like,

(46:17):
you're missing the whole point of this. Why you're not
and you're not even covering the crime, you're covering the response.

Speaker 1 (46:22):
And don't forget these are the same people on the
left that God don't know us if we didn't stand
with Ukraine. So why does Blaze TV matter? Why does

Speaker 1 (47:48):
The world does. You're not alone. The world loves Greg.
Sort of speaking of Greg in our hometown Oxford. Please
keep my name anonymous. I will has gregor anyone on
the team. Seen. You know Greg and I are from Oxford, Alabama.

(48:08):
Seen Oxford PD on the First Responder's YouTube channel. It's
under the US Cops show. They followed. They follow Oxford
PD like the Cops show, and there are quite some characters,
as anyone familiar with the area can attest to. We
like to watch it as a family and learn from it. Well,

(48:33):
everything in this anonymous email does not surprise me. No,
I have heard about this.

Speaker 4 (48:38):
I have two text Nation has sent a stuff about it.
I have not watched it.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Apparently there's a reality show about the police department in
our hometown and those of you that have never spent
any time in Calhoun County. It's if you're looking for
characters and interesting people, it is it is fishing in
a stock pond. Okay, So so I can only imagine, man,

(49:06):
keep it may you never know. Keep in mind Greg
and I are from there. That's all you really need
to know.

Speaker 3 (49:10):
This is their latest video.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Yeah, people saying it really it's correct. Yeah, have they arrested? Great?
That guy's got a little punkdown.

Speaker 3 (49:19):
The name of this video is he could barely stand.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
Okay, so he could barely stand there.

Speaker 4 (49:25):
Look these these Live PD shows. I can't get enough
of them. If I start, I'm in.

Speaker 1 (49:29):
Well Oxford, Alabama. It's I know it has the same
name as Oxford, England, but it couldn't be any more different.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
So it's now people are saying this is a really
good show in a bad way.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
Of course it is. It's goods good, it's good bad,
of course it is. Okay, tax person stating the obvious,
and bird is happy this was not available forty years ago.
We look at we we we're glad.

Speaker 4 (49:56):
A lot of things weren't available forty years ago, like
cell phones and live three sixty stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Oh, we would make we would make the Phillies Caring
look like nothing.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
I mean, I mean iPhone cameras.

Speaker 1 (50:09):
I'm glad that if if that period of my life
had been documented, I'm thankful that Jesus erased that take.

Speaker 4 (50:15):
Oh yeah, so we just told our parents we were
going to spend the night with somebody, and they said, okay.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Yeah. They didn't known different till somebody on Bourbon Street.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
Unless they called the parents.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
But hey, yeah, oh you got a few tricks.

Speaker 4 (50:28):
That's when you If your mom ever got her went
and got her hair did, it was bad because she
came back with all the all the info.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
You didn't want your mama to go get her hair done.
And we lived in an area insteads still there, and
it was it was interesting because we had a really
small town and Greg and I were lived there even
before they had McDonald's. Okay, but yet we had a mall.
I don't know how we warranted a mall then, but
I guess because where it was on I twenty between.

(50:55):
You know, it's near Atlanta, near Birmingham, near Perfect and
and so we had a mall. And if mom ever
said she was going to get her hair done and
going to the mall. We were done, she was, she
was coming back with scoop and uh, it was never good.
Mama said, they went to your house to spend the
night this past week. I hope they behaved over at
your house. Charlotte. Huh, y'all were at the beach.

Speaker 3 (51:18):
Yeah, that's weird.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
He didn't tell me that.

Speaker 3 (51:22):
What was my son there?

Speaker 1 (51:24):
Right? Well? Yeah, but anyway, See, I was a preacher's kid.
Oh PK. I was a preacher's kid, so everybody told me.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
First grade through ninth grade, the church and the school
were the same place, so the teachers, the principals, and
my dad all on the same campus. That was tough.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 3 (51:43):
And then I, you know, moved moved to Alabama and
went to public school whatever. Then I was the the
new kid in town. Who's the preacher's kid. So my
parents would get calls every weekend of my idiot friends
being like, hey, is Eric there? No, Eric's not. I
mean it was every single I had just finally tell
my friends, stop telling your parents you're at my house.

(52:06):
Stop telling your parents that you're dragging me into it.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (52:10):
Uh, granted, I probably shouldn't be all friends.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
Right, Oh, let me tell you. I can remember, well
it was I mean, I should have got an Academy
award and uh yeah things, Hey, so and so those
mamas are on the way. It was never good, not
at all. Don't nobody go to Morris Family Fund Center.

(52:36):
I swear that's where I swear about. Oh, it's just
a different time. Sure you park your car there against
someody else's car. Yeah, but that's that. But that's old stuff,
that's right.

Speaker 3 (52:49):
That's also if you tell your parents that you're going
to a football game, when you get home, you should
know who won that game.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
You should You should really get the information.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
You should really know.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
How about the one.

Speaker 3 (53:04):
I'm really stupid and I didn't think that you didn't question?

Speaker 1 (53:09):
How about we left right? Four is over? Well? How
about your dad be the head football coach and athletic
director at the high school And it wasn't quite Pastor's kid,
but it was another version. And I remember one time
there was a huge fight. I mean it was huge,
massive fight, Okay, like lots of folks over here fighting
lots of folks over here for something real important, I'm sure,

(53:31):
And so I knew when the law got there that
I needed to not be part of this, and so
I went off and down a hollow, went all the
way through the woods, crawled around from the side of
where they were taking everybody's names to be on the
side of people's names who had already been taking. Yeah,
full lo. I mean, you wouldn't belive the hard I
worked on, cut myself up, briars everything I get. All

(53:54):
the way over there, I sneak in. I said, I'm brilliant.
I am brilliant. They never saw me. And now I'm
over here with staying with the guys who they already
have everybody's name. Policeman turns around and says, okay, I
got twenty three people here, I got twenty two names. Rick,
you're gonna come give us your name or not. And
I was like, oh my gosh, that was a lot
of work from them. Muddy, I'll beat up. And then

(54:17):
then I said something again that that I think the
guy laughed. I really did, He said, what she did?
He gonna think about this, I said, Well, first thing
is gonna ask me is how I did in the fight,
so I think it will be pretty happy. And how
I did in the fight, it didn't go great, but
the so so he was not as thrilled with the

(54:39):
with my fight story as I expected. So you're saying
you would probably been on an episode of this show
as a matter of fact. You know how there's characters
that are real creepy. You got him again? Everybody go, no,
is that Rick Orgregg. It's one of them. Oh you've
seen episode seven. They're both on their because you know,

(55:01):
Greg and I didn't run together that much, but when
we did, Yeah, but when we did, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
I think the lady in our studio on itce knows
this guy.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
Yeah, wait a minute, somebody sees somebody they know. All right,
By the way, he does look familiar sight, I just
look familiar. I think he's been in here. He brought
his pigs in the blanket. I mean. Yeah. Everybody talking

(55:32):
about how all the drama that was Facebook back then. Yeah,
that was Facebook back then. Glad we didn't live in
that era. Somebody said, we could take all of your
stories from y'all childhood and your young life and do
your own version Rick Burgess show version of Beetroop or Bes.

Speaker 4 (55:48):
We could, and we've talked about it, but it's it's
It's crazy how back then you just get on your
bike and head out. Parents tell you be home at a
certain time and you just there you go. I mean
you can't. I mean you can't do that now, yeah,
where we live in but I can.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
I can honestly say, it's shocking the amount of my
life that my parents said no idea where I was Yeah, yeah,
I mean not even a clue, no idea. I mean,
they're not making that.

Speaker 5 (56:20):
No.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
And for those of you that are older, no, and
they didn't sing. You seem to be overly stressed by no.
But they really had to be a pretty cool little life.
It was. And then they didn't. They didn't have to.

Speaker 4 (56:31):
Worry about carpool or dropping off. You just rode your
back to school, rode home, or you walked.

Speaker 1 (56:35):
You learned some things. You you they had rules, they
had structure. You followed them. You did well. You didn't
follow them, you got in trouble, and that's kind of
the way it worked, and you learned from it. They didn't.
They didn't make us the center of the universe, which
actually made us pretty healthy. That's a lot of pressure
put on kids to make them the center of the universe. Yeah, right,

(56:57):
they don't need that kind of you know. I was
never under the illusion that they were living life through me.
I was in the reality that I was living life
under their authority in their house. And if you needed it,
and then if I wanted to do things other than
the way they did them, I need to go find
a way to provide for myself. Yeah. And if I couldn't,

(57:18):
I need to just do it their way.

Speaker 4 (57:20):
And if you needed a ride to practice whatever sport
that actually dropped you off and not stay, oh no, you.

Speaker 1 (57:26):
Know, no, No, my mother had no concept of staying
and watching a practice.

Speaker 7 (57:30):
No.

Speaker 1 (57:31):
As a matter of fact, if she could get a
ride from the coach in the back of the truck,
we would get there that way. Yeah. He would take
the pickup truck, pick up the entire team, and we
would ride in the back. Yep and uh. And you
know what bats we played with the ones he had.

Speaker 4 (57:44):
When they when he turned the bag upside down, whatever
fell out we used.

Speaker 3 (57:49):
Some of my earliest memories are my mom chasing me
and my brother out of the house.

Speaker 4 (57:53):
Correct, get out, ye go out, don't be here. And
if I ever said I was bored, my mom would go, oh,
you are are? And then she'd start running the list
of things I need to do, the chores.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
Oh, like, here goes? If you're board with these? Well
the reason why?

Speaker 4 (58:09):
Maybe sweep out the garage. I don't know why, Greg.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
I snuck in by bus back. Papa got out of
there a lot better. Today we stay from the book
for a book for a gotcha. I actually got it
all in. Did you hear us talking about the YouTube
channel that documents the Oxford PN And I've been meaning
to what's that? There was one episode? You know they
have like two helicopters. Now, oh really, yeah, the police does? Did?
I watched one on that.

Speaker 4 (58:38):
I wish the fire department would show up at one
of the calls and Kates would be in it.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Oh, he would be, He may be, he does, he'll
get his own show. Well there was a time when
Cakes wouldn't have been the people in law enforce, but
he'd been to people being stuffed in a car Taco
Bell incident.

Speaker 4 (58:53):
Oh my, okay, that's one of my favorite of all time.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
Birch, were you doing in the spacer? So? Uh, I
don't know, but I'm in it. Uh the uh that
was deal? The other way you look like you need
to ride? Yes, I do. Where do you? Where do
you want to be taken? Uh? They'll TALKO would be great.
Fry my buddy and get me as far away from

(59:22):
here as possible. Do not go down turn around. If
you've ever learned to a three point turn, that's the time.
But anyway, uh, the yeah, that would have I'm glad
that none of that existed now. And I really you
you're ready for everybody to just go and just gasp.
You know why our mom either let us ride to
practice with our coach or dropped us and left. Would

(59:43):
you like to know why this is gonna some of
you would handle this. She actually had to go buy
groceries and went home and cooked dinner right right, and
then yeah, yeah, and then and then would come back
and get us or somebody would bring us home, and
then we would eat. And she went to the game.
She'd miss a game. Oh no, but she didn't come
to practice because you didn't, you know. And I always

(01:00:04):
talk about and I know this is an old bit,
but it's true. We played for coaches that maybe our
parents should have been concerned about. But now but now,
but now parents obsess over like field the accountant. What
was he gonna do to your kid? Yeah? I mean,
I mean, I mean we played for Billy Joe Adams.
I mean yeah, who, like I say, put out a

(01:00:25):
cigarette to hit in field? Yeah, after finishing off of
perhaps Blue Riven and throw it in the back where
it landed on the other cans that were at our feet.
As we rode to the practice for the longest I thought,
if you smell like beer, you must coach.

Speaker 3 (01:00:37):
Little League coaching must make you think at a.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
Little league coach to day, how do you know, smell
like beer? Motwiser cans out the back of the track,
know what that mail was. But but they were, you
know a lot of them. A lot of them had practice,
you know when what they were wearing at practice coveralls,
and our parents didn't. I mean, we now everybody's out there,
you know, being sure that they've got their phone. I
was ready to catch field the accountant being mean to

(01:01:02):
their kid.

Speaker 4 (01:01:02):
Right, come on, which is, by the way, the perfect
segue with one Eddie Van all that we have to
get to today. But it's back to your point. I mean,
now you have to do all these and rightly so.
But you got to sign up. You got to feel
something out, got to do a background check, got to
be certified in CPR. You gotta know this, You gotta
know that. Back then it's just you signed up and
who wants to coach?

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
Yeah, Greg, Greg, you think that they did a background
check on Butch? Yeah, our coach now, Butch Barker, Harry Hendricks,
Pete and Billy Joe Adams. No, they're going to do
a background check. They were like, our team's covered. They're good.
And you know what, they were pretty good coaches, very good.

Speaker 3 (01:01:43):
How far back do they go.

Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
On on the on the are you worried about?

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
You wried?

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
You'll realized for this? There is that key chain. It's
finally happened. Ed Van Adler is coaching Little league. Yeah, yeah,
well they run the check on the We got something
from Texas about a key.

Speaker 3 (01:02:01):
Cher Texas six flags over Texas one gift shop. Now
that was that was a long time ago. Hopefully that
won't keep me from coaching. But yes, tonight it starts
very coaching, very first practice ever. My five year old

(01:02:21):
daughter Ruby is going to be playing football.

Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
How many players you got soccer playing soccer? I mean,
I mean, I don't know, I don't know tonight you
meet your team tonight.

Speaker 3 (01:02:31):
It's everything figure out who's coaching, what, whose team's on what.

Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
So you will be given your own team. Do you
have an assistance?

Speaker 8 (01:02:40):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:02:41):
I literally don't know it's gonna be. I think there's
like forty kids in the league. This is I think
it's like ages three to three, four to ten, maybe four.
It's a kid's thing. I should know.

Speaker 4 (01:02:57):
I should know this, yes, especially since you signed up,
but it's not forty.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
They may be that signing up, but they're not gonna play.

Speaker 3 (01:03:04):
You might get a phone call. By the way, I'm serious.
I had to put down three references, and two people
had to be family members and one person had to
not be a family because I know I.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
Know what you're going to bring up one time.

Speaker 3 (01:03:20):
He's known for it, all right, so you know, Greg,
I wouldn't put you. I want to coach this team.

Speaker 1 (01:03:25):
Okay, is a coach call me?

Speaker 3 (01:03:28):
Did you get a phone call from a strange number?
Pick it up.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
I hope they do, and just.

Speaker 3 (01:03:32):
Lie whatever they say, Just lie. I want to coach
this team.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
Do you think do you think when the parents take
a gander at you, they'll be like hope my kid
goods on that team. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Well I played
in those jiu jitsu.

Speaker 3 (01:03:46):
I played a little ball.

Speaker 1 (01:03:47):
You played a little soccer, didn't you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
Play a little soccer ball? Yeah, play a little soccer.

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
The rules and you can talk to the you did
the parent meeting. Yeah, we come back. We got to
talk to When we come back, we're gonna give you pointers.
You can ask questions, but let me tell you there's
a way to do this, and if you don't listen,
it's gonna be chaos.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
Four years to fifth grade. It's the agent group that
I could be coaching. I hope, I hope they let
me coach my own daughter's team. That would be nice,
what they would but yeah, that would be weird.

Speaker 1 (01:04:16):
Yeah, okay, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:04:17):
I played today.

Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
Your own kids. We're coming after you tackle that blonde girl.
She's good.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
I trained her every day. So yeah, all right, so's
you need a whistle. I need a whistle to.

Speaker 1 (01:04:33):
Talk about this whistle.

Speaker 3 (01:04:34):
Soccer used whistle, some cones, and I need some shorts
that are way too tight. Right to be a coach,
and that one that's what I.

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
Remember for being a kid, all right, So Adler has
told us that tonight he will go to the first
meeting where those who have volunteered to coach. Right, if
you get cleared on the background screening, Yes, it's not
a given. You'll be coaching soccer, yes, or football as

(01:05:04):
you call it. Uh, will this just be girls? Will
this be co ed?

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
It will be co ed?

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
Co ed? I think, Okay, little folks. He didn't even
know he's gonna get little folks because Ruby is.

Speaker 3 (01:05:17):
Four now five, she's five in kindergarten.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
Five in kindergarten, kindergarten kids. Okay, so this is going
to fifth that's a big gap.

Speaker 3 (01:05:26):
But it's a smaller church, so that helps.

Speaker 1 (01:05:29):
Within the church uniform, they're just offering that age.

Speaker 3 (01:05:32):
Yeah, they're gonna play together, so you're gonna have kids
will get broken up into age groups on the same leg,
can be different teams.

Speaker 1 (01:05:41):
Ruby will only play with kids her against kids her age.

Speaker 7 (01:05:43):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
I think I'm gonna be coaching kindergarten soccer.

Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (01:05:47):
That out of high stakes?

Speaker 1 (01:05:49):
Oh yeah, no, seriously, and winning does matter high pressure.
I will warn you, even though we don't care that
much about soccer, we know that you do. You're not
want to really see the soccer that you love. No,
it's pretty much. You could call it swarm ball.

Speaker 3 (01:06:05):
It's a beautiful game.

Speaker 1 (01:06:06):
All the kids swarm to the ball. You're going to
show up with all these expectations and things you're going
to teach and all this, and then after a couple
of days you just say, Okay, you're going to be
coaching a version of this game.

Speaker 4 (01:06:16):
Yeah, okay, are you drafting or you just going to
be giving a team because I can talk to you
about g LM's and all that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
Yes, Speedy can help you there.

Speaker 3 (01:06:23):
Okay, go ahead, Speedy.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
Take the floor.

Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
If it's a draft, Yeah, if it's a draft, you
just kind of scan the room for good looking moms
and draft.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
Their kid or because they're because they probably have good
genetics and they'll play well.

Speaker 4 (01:06:34):
Yep, that's it called glm's. Okay, you actually put it
by the kid GLM or if.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
In the league where everybody gets the bat and everybody
gets and know that it's different sport I'm talking about.
But you get the kid if he's not really good,
but his parents usually aren't really reliable, so he won't
he'll miss a lot of games. Okay, yeah, yeah, you
don't have to try to compare weakest kid to unreliable parent.

Speaker 4 (01:06:55):
Yeah, they make three games. Also, understand your behavioral expert.
You're not gonna be really a coach.

Speaker 1 (01:07:01):
Okay, you're working on behavior. Yeah, Yeah, you're gonna really
try to act.

Speaker 4 (01:07:05):
Have the kids act right, Yeah, learn discipline and what
to do avoid volatile divorces if all possible, rights right.

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
Okay, Yeah, when they do the child swipe at the park,
sometimes it goes bad. It does, and no matter how
much the husband has said it will not happen. The
boyfriend will show up and it's okay, awkward, it's a
terrible moment. Just be ready for that, right, So uh
so kind of you know, and you're gonna have a
lot of you know, the dad's new girlfriend your mom
doesn't like. She'll demand that he stand up and defend

(01:07:36):
her that, by god, she's coming to the game. He'll
wish she wasn't coming in all, and the mom will say,
if that blanky blank is there, there's gonna be trouble.
And you're just trying to win the game. Okay, So
sta out of that. Look forward.

Speaker 3 (01:07:48):
What if they say we're not gonna take we're gonna
keep score because their kids said, what if I'm just saying,
what if you're how big of a scene do I make?
Like really big? Or like cops are called big?

Speaker 1 (01:07:59):
Like how big of a You don't say a word.
You don't say a word. You just wait until you
get your team together and you tell the parents and
the kids and you show them your dry race board
that you will be keeping score and you'll give them
the one lost record of the team, no matter what
the rest.

Speaker 6 (01:08:14):
Of the league does.

Speaker 3 (01:08:15):
And let me take first your last right.

Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
And by the way, if anybody starts this garbage, I
don't know, is this at a church, it is if
anybody starts this garb that Jesus doesn't keep score. He
absolutely keeps score. Uh huh, Okay, they haven't read the Bible.
He absolutely keeps score. It literally says he's gonna give
and take away based on what we did with our
life after we were redeemed. He does keep score. So

(01:08:39):
don't let anybody ever tell you that.

Speaker 4 (01:08:41):
Yeah, and you can say real loud to where other people, hey,
we're not keeping score.

Speaker 1 (01:08:45):
Okay, but then.

Speaker 4 (01:08:46):
You go, but if we if we score, we win, yeah,
or we're up by one, we got to hold them.

Speaker 3 (01:08:51):
But we're not keeping score, so after the kids score
would be good for him or bad for him to
be like that's three three zip.

Speaker 1 (01:08:58):
And you might want to take the floor, or if
you if you get the floor. I did announce the score,
by the way, because I and the beautiful thing when
my dad was still with us. You didn't have to
announce it because he did from the stamps. But and
his voice was very loud. Everybody knew the score. But
what I would also tell them if they try this
now score thing. If you want to say one thing,
how would these kids ever learn? How would they ever

(01:09:21):
learn to overcome adversity if they're never put in it?

Speaker 3 (01:09:24):
Yes, sometimes you gotta lose, and remember it's.

Speaker 1 (01:09:27):
How can I deal with losing if I'm never allowed
to lose?

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
Yeah, And it's not win and lose. It's not win
and lose, it's win and learn.

Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
You guys, thank you. That's good. Now you're gonna call it?
What else? They also need to learn how to win? Yeah?
How to win? Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
As far as a tire, I thought I could go
like old school coach, wearing some real thin shorts, way
too tight shirt tucked in you know, golf shirt like
right at my belly button, touched whistle, got my whistle
perfect scarring kids because my shorts are just way too
tight and have a tall hat. So some of my
best man foam hat with the cardboards still in the front.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
He says. Coach on black shoes and tube socks.

Speaker 3 (01:10:07):
Okay black, Yes, I need okay, I got to pick
some of that up. Or I was going to go
the route of the L s U female basketball coach
that direction, you know, one of the other.

Speaker 1 (01:10:20):
There you go. Now you're gonna call the field a pitch.
You're gonna get on this pitch.

Speaker 3 (01:10:25):
I say soccer field. I don't say pitch. I'm not.

Speaker 1 (01:10:27):
I didn't know if you were going to teach him soccer,
lingo or not.

Speaker 3 (01:10:31):
I say soccer field.

Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
I always have thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:10:34):
We call it soccer even you know.

Speaker 1 (01:10:36):
That's funny.

Speaker 3 (01:10:37):
It's funny.

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
That's a great point. I know the sports you're coaching.
You're coaching soccer. Get on the pitch, hey, try to
pick up a little ethnicity, if you know what I'm saying. Yes,
watch your.

Speaker 10 (01:10:51):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:10:51):
If the kids can't, if the parents can't speak English,
put that kid down as a possible pick.

Speaker 3 (01:10:55):
Oh big time.

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
Yes, so I can't communicate with his parents. Let me
get him if I get the first round.

Speaker 4 (01:11:05):
All right, so watch out for the over aggressive parents
and getting the coaches box area.

Speaker 1 (01:11:10):
All right, suddenly they want to be a coach. Yeah
that opened that opens up. Learn this line. You're gonna
need this one. Hey, over over zealous parent who keeps
coming on the field. Back when they said check here
if you want to coach, you didn't check it. Yeah,
so you don't get to okay.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
Yeah, you didn't barely pass a background check like I did.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
Yeah right, you didn't squeak back. You didn't get to
your friends ahead of time like I didn't mind. No,
I warned them, man, listen, listen all kid, now, let's
get serious about it, because it's all under one headed
serious to control the parents is everything everything, And do
not listen to me if you don't hear anything else
we've said, and all of it was crucial. But if
you don't hear anything else, hear this. Do not make

(01:11:52):
up how the team is run after it's already started.
Have a meeting with the parents prior to it started,
and say here is everything we're gonna do. This is
how playing time is done. This is whether we score,
I mean keep scoring. We don't. This is what I
consider excuse practice here all the so that and make
them sign. Get it all on the document and they signed.

(01:12:13):
I was here when he said this is how the
team is run. And they ever bring it up, say
we covered that to get off my pic?

Speaker 3 (01:12:19):
And what if I just take all their picture right
as I say everything here?

Speaker 1 (01:12:23):
You were there?

Speaker 3 (01:12:24):
Click to me.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
You know this team, the player your darn right you are.
I don't know you know what you're saying? This is
you tell them this too. This is not a constitutional republic.
This is not a democracy. It's a dictatorship. And you're
looking at the little bearded dictator. Period. Oh wow, open
your mouth. It's my it's my way or no way.

Speaker 3 (01:12:50):
Yeah, call me cast coach Castro.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
If you wanted to run this team, you should have
volunteered to coach. Let's not say that, say coach.

Speaker 3 (01:12:57):
That could have that could offend the Cuban player that
I'm trying to pick up.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
Or really most anybody would offend them.

Speaker 3 (01:13:03):
Right, And I'm writing this down all right, So playing
time score? What other questions should I ask? Like corporal
corporal punishment, yes or no, because we have an organizational
meeting before the practice, like, oh, are they gonna get
mad if I say drop down and give me fifty
little girl?

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
Right, I'd stay away from that, okay, yeah, stay with you.
How frustrating it? So, you know, it gets the stumping
around and he gets I don't know that. I don't know.
I can't wait to watch him, coach, I don't know that.
This is your thing?

Speaker 4 (01:13:30):
Yeah, your little suicides right now, little boy.

Speaker 1 (01:13:35):
This is just your a little hoigh strung for that
and there go. What's what's choice side? Coach?

Speaker 7 (01:13:38):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:13:39):
Yeah, that I'd have to explain where that is, right,
all right, So I won't do any of that.

Speaker 1 (01:13:43):
Right, But you do want to say that, you know,
you want to tell them exactly how the team is
going to be run. And everybody knows what we're getting into.
Here's how we do that. This will probably everybody will
probably play the whole game. There's not enough kids. I
don't know, the show up on time to practice, got
to be on time.

Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
So there's nothing worse than as a coach looking in
the parking lot, going where they where are they?

Speaker 1 (01:14:02):
Disney on Ice? Disney on Ice is not an excuse practice.
I literally wrote that in my rules. Okay, neither is
a birthday party. If you don't if you don't come
to practice, you don't play.

Speaker 3 (01:14:15):
Okay, this is right before the game.

Speaker 1 (01:14:17):
We don't go into the stands to get something to
drink or whatever. We put all we put all that
on the sideline. And I don't know that they do
snacks anymore. Everybody has an allergy to anything. Yeah, so
it used to be it wasn't that way. But watch it.
Watch out for the rotate, watch out for the sickly.
I'm allergist everything. Kid. Yeah, okay, it's a nightmare.

Speaker 3 (01:14:37):
Just watch your tone in a whistle or like an
air horn is better to do, like right in the
kids when they're not doing.

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
Good whistle whistles. The air horn might scare them. You
don't want kids out there with headsets sprint.

Speaker 6 (01:14:51):
Now, this is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
Yeah, Gregg's back and it's been to another breakfast with grandkids.

Ellis said he had two hundred and two friends. Yeah,
he's doing good. And then when you went to see Pace,
didn't he let because he's a rule follower. Oh yeah,
And he's the one that told the other classmate that

(01:16:04):
they needed to follow the rules. Yes, they need to
do what's right. Because they were trying to talk during
nap time and stuff, and the little girl was trying
to hold his fingers, he said, I guess she's trying
to hold his and he touched and he's doing it's right.
So but it is good. Yeah, it's good that you

(01:16:25):
got to do that. That's good. Good to have you back.
I mean, you got one of the biggest fans out
there and sitting there in the box seats. I can't
stop loving. Yeah, I can't stop loving. Greg Niece is
one that sends a video of the aerial view of
Pleasant Valley. Yeah, she's a pilot, say she was flying.

Speaker 4 (01:16:42):
If somebody's taking aerial shots of your house and your property,
they love you well.

Speaker 1 (01:16:46):
And they're right there on that line of stalking. Yeah,
right there. You know it's you got just right there,
and that she's gonna be at the crap run again.
I tried every year of supports that I could get
talking that up. That's what Rick first week in octog Over,
I think, good night something. You know, that's how this
here it comes. Yeah, it's pretty close. Yeah, well that's not.

(01:17:06):
Still you're getting in shape again. I am. You know.

Speaker 3 (01:17:12):
When he said that your sad, I am.

Speaker 1 (01:17:13):
I got that. Fred.

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
You know you know how we always have these bold
statements after these annual events.

Speaker 1 (01:17:19):
I'll tell you what next year, I will be ready. Yeah,
and then all of a sudden, here it is talk
about hunting. What do you think you're talking about hunting? Oh,
I'm climbing. I don't know where I'm going. I'm on
the table climber. Yep, you know. There he is in
the blind. Oh yeah, that's a little more sampler at
the end of the season. You know, I never climbed
this year. I need to do that. Yeah. I want
people to stop texting saying tell Adler to let everybody

(01:17:41):
know he's a coach, not one of the players. Oh yeah,
the beard's gonna happen there.

Speaker 3 (01:17:45):
Well yeah, Plus, I'm an adult man.

Speaker 1 (01:17:49):
You are right with you. I mean, you're adult man
in the kids world kind of. So thanks everybody. Yeah,
so you're gonna be a great Coach's Ruby excited about you? Coach?
She is.

Speaker 3 (01:18:00):
She doesn't know what to call me, and I keep
joking that I'm gonna make everybody call me coach, daddy, coach. No, no,
that's not She goes coach, Chris, you chirch, Chris. Quit
messing around.

Speaker 1 (01:18:13):
She can take her squirt bottle to practice and squirt
it the opponents. That's a good idea.

Speaker 3 (01:18:17):
That's what I'm gonna do to the kids like you
would a cat, because I'm basically gonna be hurting cat.

Speaker 4 (01:18:22):
She's really good at squirt bottle big time, so squirt
daddy in the face too.

Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
And by the way, one thing we didn't cover Adler.
It's gonna be, especially this generation, the confusion of the
difference between being hurt and injured. They got no clue.
Everything everything bad, everything's an injured and and it's not
an overly suck it up generation.

Speaker 4 (01:18:47):
So they have tiny little stretchers. So if somebody's out there,
you just that idea.

Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
Yeah good. I remember, of course much different sport. But
when they were we let them play it, probably when
they were too young, but in litle league football, the
worst thing was to and their helmet on and all
scream and hold their ears. You realize and then I
can't buckle it. You're you're exactly right, Greg, because you're
sitting there with your legal pat out and you're drawing
up all these strategies and you get to the first

(01:19:13):
practice and you realize, Okay, my whole world is trying
to get people's helmets on it off. Yeah, and they're
all crying about it. Yeah, they're screaming because their ears hurt.

Speaker 4 (01:19:20):
If they're sweaty, that's one thing, But if they're not,
they're trying to pull it apart and be.

Speaker 1 (01:19:28):
Prepared for this. This is never a good sign. And Greg,
I've told Greg this. I was coaching the Little league
one time and the kid. I noticed the kid when
I was talking, he wasn't looking at me, kept looking
past me. Remember this, And I said, hey, man, I said,
what what do you do it? I said, look at
me when I'm talking to you. I said, who are
you looking at? I'm looking at my daddy cause.

Speaker 6 (01:19:46):
He's only one I can trust.

Speaker 11 (01:19:48):
And the boy I know what that ride over the
practice was that conversation in the car, you know, and
then I I have stolen from you.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
Look when you done? You and Daddy is the ultimate thwart. Yeah,
but out here on the field, that's gonna be me.
That's gonna be me when he calls you to the fans.
Yeah you think that Dad didn't call, So get ready
for calling to the fans dad.

Speaker 3 (01:20:16):
Yeah, here's my first speech. I'm playing on giving the kids.

Speaker 1 (01:20:19):
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, very first speech and I talked
to you that off, coach, if you want to stay
in this game, cheat up.

Speaker 3 (01:20:32):
Okay, that was I had a queued up where he
talks about his twelve siblings and it jumps on me.
I'm so sorry. That was gonna be so hilarious because
remember the Titans got twelve. I had it queued up.
I don't know why it jumped in.

Speaker 1 (01:20:43):
That's all right, that's okay. Seeing it jump to it
was kind of a rough scene. Yeah, sorry about that.

Speaker 3 (01:20:48):
I don't know why I jumped it was ready to
roll whether you have enough sibling.

Speaker 1 (01:20:50):
And I wanted to hear that again too, Remember the Titans.
I love that. That's when of those movies he comes
on watching.

Speaker 3 (01:20:57):
I lost my mother and my father in the same month,
I had twelve and sisters. And then after the speech,
after the speech, coach goes, I didn't know you had
twelve brothers and sisters, and he actually didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:21:08):
So he said, you're right, twelve sounds better. He does
sound I know. She took on a little Yeah, yeah,
what are we doing.

Speaker 3 (01:21:14):
That's my coaching voice. No, no, no, that's my.

Speaker 1 (01:21:27):
That your hard voice.

Speaker 3 (01:21:34):
Else got three brothers, which I.

Speaker 1 (01:21:39):
Can't do it he's realized there's no way to do that.
You know, there's certain things are just true and everybody
needs to understand. I just love to watch him. I
would love to watch you.

Speaker 3 (01:21:49):
Trying to that's my coach's voice, trying to make him.

Speaker 4 (01:21:54):
I need to practice location because I will be sneaking
video and you not know it.

Speaker 3 (01:21:59):
You think they'd be all right with me having like
my drone and you're getting like drone shots in the
field around the kids.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
Everybody on Tabby Nation is saying you got to watch
kicking and screaming immediately. Yeah, you're gonna.

Speaker 6 (01:22:12):
Be well for brothers and sisters.

Speaker 7 (01:22:14):
Is that good?

Speaker 6 (01:22:15):
Now he's the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:22:22):
Denise Peppers is here. Oh boy, Denise Greg Burgess and
should come. She has to get get your own time
on the mic. Yeah, because she's been waiting to be
here to see Greg. Denise, Greg, there it is. You've
been waiting on that, hadn't you.

Speaker 8 (01:22:40):
Yeah, I'm Denise from Rome.

Speaker 1 (01:22:42):
Hey, Denise, and I bet your son's thrilled hear you
say that.

Speaker 7 (01:22:45):
Well.

Speaker 8 (01:22:46):
Yeah, hey, Benjamin, how are you doing this morning?

Speaker 1 (01:22:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:22:49):
I'm proud of Benjamin. He just graduated from the police Academy.

Speaker 1 (01:22:52):
Graduation college. But you were saying in the break, he's
kind of asked you to turn it down a little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:22:58):
Yeah, he was a little concerned, but I was like, son,
it's a bit for the show.

Speaker 12 (01:23:02):
It's just all it's just just all fun T shirts up.
I get that, but it's a bit for you.

Speaker 1 (01:23:07):
Ye.

Speaker 5 (01:23:08):
Well, and they thought, you know, when I did the
fly over in a Pleasant Valley airspace, that I was
going to be considered a stalker. And I'm like, no,
it's it's a bit for the show. It's all in fun.

Speaker 8 (01:23:19):
And Greg knows I'm harmless.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
Yeah, yeah, well we don't know that if you're landed
in the driveway out of being concerned, right, yeah about it?

Speaker 8 (01:23:28):
Oh oh the driveways every bit big enough?

Speaker 1 (01:23:31):
Love to see money. Were you hoping he was going
to be running when you went by?

Speaker 5 (01:23:35):
I was hoping he was going to be outside. So
we did a little circle around and yeah, I was.

Speaker 1 (01:23:40):
Watching the video and also I went, wait a minute,
that's my house, so way what type of aircraft do
you fly?

Speaker 8 (01:23:46):
I have assessed in on one seventy two.

Speaker 1 (01:23:47):
Oh wow, not bragging, that's just that's just what it is.
That's just what it is. It just is what it is,
and what is it that that flies airplanes?

Speaker 8 (01:23:55):
Money?

Speaker 5 (01:23:57):
It's not aerodynamics, it's not physics, not left and thrust
and drag and all that good stuff.

Speaker 8 (01:24:02):
It is money.

Speaker 1 (01:24:04):
I have it. So had you always wanted to fly
since you were a little girl.

Speaker 5 (01:24:08):
Yeah, my brother in law took me flying when I
was a teenager. Unfortunately he's no well fortunately unfortunately it
doesn't matter.

Speaker 8 (01:24:15):
He's not my brother in law anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:24:16):
But so I had a run of our business again.

Speaker 8 (01:24:19):
Yeah, we had.

Speaker 5 (01:24:19):
I had a really big break from that time until
when I got to my fifties.

Speaker 8 (01:24:24):
I moved to a grass.

Speaker 5 (01:24:25):
Airstrip and everybody around me was a pilot, and I said,
I think I want to do this myself.

Speaker 8 (01:24:30):
So I went and bought an.

Speaker 5 (01:24:31):
Airplane and said, somebody teaches me to fly this thing,
and I literally did it in that order.

Speaker 1 (01:24:37):
Most people learned to fly to them by there. Yeah,
that's so true.

Speaker 8 (01:24:41):
That is I'm a very determined personality.

Speaker 5 (01:24:44):
I don't tell me to quit, and don't tell me
don't think I'm going to give up, because by god,
you just made a mistake.

Speaker 8 (01:24:51):
I'm going to tell.

Speaker 1 (01:24:54):
This is the kind of language stalkers us nothing stop me, right,
I don't understand.

Speaker 12 (01:25:04):
No, Hey, Greg fritters? Right, but how many brought him
some fritters?

Speaker 7 (01:25:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:25:11):
Welling, well, Greg, I have a friend Jennifer Cannon that
asked Lisa to get Greg to send me a happy
birthday greeting so he'll sweet and in his happy Birthday greeting,
he said, now, I understand you're coming to the show,
and it's okay if you bring me some apple fritters.
You know, it's okay if you don't. But of course,
I mean Greg down, absolutely, you wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (01:25:32):
Like birders down no work. How many times have you
played that video? It was a generic cameo plus.

Speaker 5 (01:25:41):
Just twice okay, once for myself and wants to show
somebody there you go, I can be moderate.

Speaker 1 (01:25:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can I understand because you do have
a shirt that you made for Greg.

Speaker 8 (01:25:53):
And you made it seven shirts that I made for Greg.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
Okay, so I want you to go back and watch
this video.

Speaker 5 (01:25:59):
You said, now, but there's a story, Okay, there's a reason,
all right. The reason I initially started the shirts is
because of you, mister Rick Burchas. You were always saying
everybody hates Gregg's and you hate mail to Greg. Yeah,
and I said, no, we love Greg. So I wanted

(01:26:22):
to support Greg and let him know we love him.

Speaker 1 (01:26:24):
So your fault again, fault everything that everybody says, everything
involving Greg always somehow goes back. Yes, I appreciate you
pointing that out.

Speaker 8 (01:26:33):
Well, my first shirt.

Speaker 1 (01:26:34):
You thought I was him a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:26:36):
Well, of course you do.

Speaker 4 (01:26:38):
Well.

Speaker 5 (01:26:38):
My first shirt was low budget, and then it was
just the vacation Bible school spray paint thing.

Speaker 1 (01:26:42):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:26:43):
And well then I was like, okay, I got it
up my game, you know. Well, then I started doing
the song because I knew you would sing.

Speaker 1 (01:26:51):
The song no doubt.

Speaker 8 (01:26:52):
You've not let me down one time.

Speaker 5 (01:26:53):
Every time I come in with a shirt that's related
to a song, you sing always. And then Greg's personal
favorite shirt was I love Greg like Lisa loves Jason Kraut.

Speaker 1 (01:27:05):
She does love she does.

Speaker 5 (01:27:06):
When Lisa was talking about who doesn't love Jason Kraub,
it was like, well, there you go, there's my shirt.

Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
So I noticed that the Greg's minions they are aghast
that there's anybody that didn't love Greg.

Speaker 5 (01:27:19):
I know you know what that you can when we
will fight you to defend them.

Speaker 4 (01:27:25):
There's love for Trump, then there's I get it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:31):
The only thing that's that's wrong is somehow Greg needs
to be a Bama fan. Yeah, you know we can
get that. So we've been kind of asking you questions.
Do you have a shout out any questions you want
to ask?

Speaker 5 (01:27:43):
Well, of course I already shouted out to Benjamin, I love.

Speaker 7 (01:27:46):
Your son and said.

Speaker 5 (01:27:49):
Hated Jennifer because she, you know, helps me out with my.

Speaker 1 (01:27:52):
Tell them why your friend didn't come?

Speaker 8 (01:27:56):
You're gonna call her out?

Speaker 1 (01:27:57):
Well, it just doesn't happen much.

Speaker 8 (01:27:59):
Well, she slept like.

Speaker 12 (01:28:04):
Shela and Minster show.

Speaker 1 (01:28:08):
You know, it's just devotion. She left her.

Speaker 5 (01:28:10):
Oh you flew over this morning, flew over yesterday, Okay,
flew into.

Speaker 8 (01:28:16):
To get her on her own. I was responsible for
that part, but.

Speaker 1 (01:28:20):
I just thought it was unique. I've never heard.

Speaker 4 (01:28:22):
Hey, I slept like its wonder why we only had
nine We're supposed to have ten today.

Speaker 1 (01:28:26):
That's how she did maintain and her effort was there.
I mean, you know how hard these already get. That's it.
It's not your fault, is it? You're you're here? I'm here?

Speaker 8 (01:28:37):
What are you sure I'm here? You want to sing, well.

Speaker 1 (01:28:41):
I can't stop loving. I can't stop loving Greg. Thank you,
and you know they'll just give your heads up when
we fly. We fly to that same airport. So if
you ever hear Greg's on the trip across, they'll be waving.
One year.

Speaker 8 (01:29:00):
For a message.

Speaker 5 (01:29:01):
Lisa lely and ask if Greg would go fly with
us today.

more than one, but I'm on that one where it's
a it's an Instagram thing where they have all these
voice recordings of all these different uh. And I don't
know why I listened to that, because I fly enough
that listen to that. But I just it's always interesting
to what you said. How calm here does all these
pilots stay. They're very calm, and some of them in
