wherever you get your podcast, it's Rick and Bubba's greatest.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
Tis Ricking Bubba, Ricking Bubba.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Bubba. Also, and this is one of our favorites.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
We don't like robbers, but if someone robs a bank
dressed as Darth Vader, you have to look at it.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Well, you gotta love that.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Rick. In New York, it appears Dark Vader knocked off
the New York Bank and he did it using the
dark side. The police.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
Say, I'm not sure you alarm anybody, but Darth Vader
just walked in the bank.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Yeah done. When Darth Vader walks in, he is not
there to make a deposit. Give me, yeah, give me
the money loose. You know it's my money. Search your feelings,
you know it to be true of the police. You know. Really, technically, Rick,

(01:02):
he could use this defense that he never asked the
teller for money. He just simply gave her a bag
and then used the you know, the old Jedi mind
trick owner.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Or he grabbed her by the throat like it starts hurting.

Speaker 5 (01:20):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
It says, uh, it was the Chase Bank on Long Island.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Did you just do yo dad again?

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yo dad again? It says that the uh it was.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
How about the guy?

Speaker 4 (01:42):
I said, I wasn't gonna give it to him, and
then he kind of made me start thinking.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
He told me I was his son. That's a mean
hit the button. The minute he walked in, Big Dicky
had my life.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
It was it was Chase Bank on Long Island. They
say that Darth Vader did flash a gun and demanded money.
The surveillance camera caught the Star Wars star where and
he had a cape on too and camouflashed pants. The
bandit escaped from the bank with an undetermined amount of cash.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I gotta know if he sounded like Darth Vader. I
gotta know.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
I've got to know when he came through the front
door to somebody that go, we might want to hit
the button.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Now, guys, get the Darth Vader coming in.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Listen.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
This shall might get your on your button. Darth Vader,
just quick get the ink bomb.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
This is funny because this is the second bizarre robbery
of a bank this week in New York. Another robbery
came early last week, and it was dubbed the Bouquet Bandit.
He went into a Manhattan bank and gave a tailler
a bouquet of roses that had a note in it saying,
fill up a bag with.

Speaker 4 (02:48):
Cash, you know, because you're you're funny. It's funny to
think of him talking as Darth. But it's also funny
that it'd be somebody that obviously hitting Darth Vader just
in the costumes, right, I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Hey, let me tell them, yeah, go and have me
that money.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Over now, Rick, You know, if it was Darth Vader
when he first, when he first went up, he wouldn't
just start. He would he would have to stand there
and just stare for a minute ago.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
And just make the noise.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Oh yeah, and you know the girl will go, can
I help you?

Speaker 4 (03:20):
You know that, just just noise and then put you And.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Then he got away again.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
He's leading the bank dressed as Darth Vader. Nobody could
keep up with him. We're about to get roped. Did
you know how they watching? I get there's a face
that comes with and I you know how they caught him.

Speaker 3 (03:38):

think they did. Just added that they.

Speaker 3 (03:54):

said the bandit escape from the bank and determined the county.
Let's see if we can get it on here.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
They found him.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
They did this was this was him leaving the bank.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
And then he's doing that I need He turned around.

Speaker 3 (04:15):

Speaker 4 (09:28):
I was commanded by Chris Rock to contact Yough. I
gotta tell you something. I just want to sit here
and be quite a bit.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Yeah, I just kind of reflect on it if I could.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
I don't know what it's way early, Rick, but if
you want to go to break so we can just
sit here and think about this for a minute, it
would be a pro there have been We'll take the time.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
On the other side, there's been about three times in
the last fourteen years that I have been rendered speechless.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Right, you know what it is.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
It's one of those when they finished, you go a
lot that you just want to see all you, says
an Ody. That's why you can't leave this show. You
don't even know what's going to happen. I mean that,
I mean se we actually thought that. She mean Chris Rock,
the comedian, That's who she meant. I mean, I don't
know who actually would have been, just like it was
about all the other Chris Rock. I'm just trying to
grasp it. Yeah, are you thinking it's just a it's

(10:12):
just some guy that does an evangelist?

Speaker 3 (10:14):
We don't.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
And not only have I wrote you a jingle, Chris Rock.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Told me to write it. Think about commanded, commanded, think
about the way that went. And I had one more question.
I wanted to ask her some of some of y'all
will understand this, some of you won't. I wanted to
ask her if she'd ever been hit by a chicken trucking.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
You gotta know trivia to get that one, really do.
You got to know your ricking Bubba trivia.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
A lot of similarities there was.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
The singing voice was very similar.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Let me tell if any of you think I'm gonna
walk to my car along today, you out of your mind.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
We're all thinking right now that that wind of that
investment was money well spent. What about when it was
some time ago?

Speaker 1 (10:55):
How about this?

Speaker 4 (10:56):
I called for an arm lock and we move as
a pot. I thought that Greg's email would nothing could
be could could could perplex me more than it?

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh wow?

Speaker 4 (11:10):
But by I stand corrected. Y'all were here every day.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
Every day.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
I try to tell all of them. You won't listen.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
You know how sometimes goes. You don't know, you know,
because all y'all hear is little bits and pieces. We
got to rock this thing four hours a day. We
go through the emails, We hear all the calls, Chris,
cause y'all never even know about emails. You never even
know about I'm telling you you should be concerned, all
of you.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yes, do you think Christmas with strange world? We live in?

Speaker 3 (11:38):
He was commanding her. Chris Rock, of all people.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
Chris Rock a foul mouth stand up comment. Is there
inspiration I mean, that's it. Well, and she met him
evidently on the phone. Isn't that what she says?

Speaker 3 (11:53):
That was the answer we got. I didn't fully grasp it,
but that was the answer.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Oh sing them.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
Greg and Dadley has found this indestructible mobile home that
grizzly bears, and as a.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
Matter of fact, a lot of our troops are gonna
start using them in Afghanistan.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
I don't think I would sleep in a hum vy
with a grizzly bear outside of you're telling me that bears. Well,
let's don't go that far. Let's go back to this.
I'm not telling now when we were kids act with
a big W on the side with the racing stripes.
Have you seen or I know you don't care if
you've seen these r vs? Now, no I have, Greg,
but I don't care. You can spend as much as
you want, by the way, but Greg, here, let me
let me and grizzly bears break down doors. If I

(12:41):
was in Tony Stewart's r V that I saw at
the track, I would not be scared of a grizzly bear.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
How about that?

Speaker 4 (12:47):
Over a million? But you can be stupid. I mean,
do you think you can get in it. No, we
can't get in it.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Oh my gosh, Greg, here is the only thing I'm saying.
The wall, the wall at the at the thickest poet. Okay,
that'll outside. Maybe a piece of ply wood two by
four wall all that. No, I mean what.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
By his uncle had one? They take us to the
lake in it. We ain't talking about that.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
Think about the tour bus that you gave us for.
I know, I know what I'm saying. I know that's
what I'm saying. Though. It's the door. It's y'all, it's
still just a wall. It's not it's not it's not
a bulletproof. She'll say this if you ended up with
some nutbear who was just nuts a nuts. Most of
them are not talking about a nuts a durn r v.

(13:34):
I tn't, Yeah, Greg, Greg nut All I.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Got to do is get in the door. G They
don't have to get in the door.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
I got the door closed.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
He's gonna rip it open with his pot restaurant like
they're tarpactyles, source wrecks. A chimpanzee could do it, could
do it like that. They just crushed stuff like cans. Okay,
I do, Greg, You don't understand their power. They ripped
people's face off with a swat. When I swat, they
noted the head of you always stand found headless deer

(14:04):
where grizzlies snapped his head off.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
That's not an RV.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
They ain't found RV slapped in half by one. I
bett taking find an RV door crushed in that. You
come in, you're thinking about Uncle Frank's winn of bagels.
What you thinking about? You're not thinking about? A minute ago,
Gregors going, and I got one guy said, you know what,
We got guys from Montana and Alaska saying they can
do it. Greg takes a call from guy from Coleman.
You know there's a lot of bear experts there. Well,

(14:28):
he went to the Smokey's one time, saw some black bearry.
Tom Great Falls, Montana. Okay, he probably knows what he's
telling me. I go ahead, you go ahead, Tom.

Speaker 10 (14:37):
Yes, A couple of quick things. First of all, I
like to say roll tide having go and go Holks
Bluff Eagles.

Speaker 1 (14:43):

forty something years.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Okay, good, all right.

Speaker 10 (14:52):
I graduated from Hulks Bluff, but I've been up here since.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, beautiful place.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
Man, you have an indestructible r V.

Speaker 10 (15:00):
One thing you haven't talked about that. I don't think
a lot of people know. The only thing that we
request up here that in your backpack that you carry
a good pair of jogging shoes. You don't have to
outrun the bear. All you have to do is outrun
the person with you.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Right.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Can a grizzly bear break through the door of the
most widern RV?

Speaker 6 (15:19):
Yes, thank you.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
You live in Montana. Don't make him an RV expert,
it makes him a bear expert. So he's seen that happen.

Speaker 10 (15:31):
I've been on a legro and I would mess with them.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
But there I'm talking about him. Show not one Tom
telling Tom? Tom? Will you will you tell.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
I know when they design these they designed them to
stand up to bears? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Will you do me a favorite time?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Will you tell Marlon Perkins and his partner Gim, who
had become grizzly bear experts. I don't know where so
and so you can crash one and it don't fall
a pieces. But now bears gonna slap one slamming half. Greg, No,
all the bears just come to the door. You just
got to come to the door the window.

Speaker 10 (16:05):
You've just got a big pen.

Speaker 6 (16:07):
Can uh that?

Speaker 10 (16:08):
An apple tree branch will rip the side of I'm
not talking about.

Speaker 4 (16:12):
My apple tree. You aren't listening to one. I'm talking
about the tour bus.

Speaker 8 (16:16):
Tom.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
Tom would love to come visit you had is a beautiful,
beautiful place. That race, the tall dig a super speedway.
You'll go over with the drivers parked the million dollar RVs.
That's the one you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Greg. You know how people build things? What do they
build them to? Whatever they're designed to do, specs right right,
and they're not going to build one that would stop
a greasily park and a race. Giving the bear a
little more credit they deserve.

Speaker 10 (16:42):
I'm going to be seeing you boys the week of
October the fifteenth. I'm slipping down there.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Good by the way.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
We just o good.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Well, we'll come by and thanks Tom, I'll bring you
some be they said.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
NASCAR driver Keselowski is already contacted us and he said
he'd like to put Kyle Busch and want to sit
at the Okay, since I live in Alabama, I guess
I'm an expert on watermarks, and then no more about
I don't know whether they I'm not an expert. You
don't know anything about water boks, not really, y'all find

(17:19):
all right bow and Tuscalus said, so Greg will be happy.
I go ahead, bo, I don't. I don't want mine town.
I don't want alask I want, you know, the barrel
capital of the world.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
If I had, if I had a.

Speaker 11 (17:34):
Million dollar camper, I'd be living somewhere else other state.

Speaker 6 (17:37):
In the woods all time.

Speaker 8 (17:38):
Number one, well, that's what whatever.

Speaker 11 (17:40):
But number two we did have a camper, and it
was a fairly basic camper th old boy did. We
were turkey hunting in the wash Tall Mountains over in Arkansas.
And it wasn't a six hundred pound grizzly bear. It
was just a three hundred and fifty pound black bear.
You that tore the door off.

Speaker 4 (17:57):
But I know what kind you were in. I've slept
in those camping I'm not talking about those. We're these
magic campers you have to have.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
That's number twenty on the side of you.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Think they're going turkey hunting in some sharp r V.
Honestly him and them boys. So you won't be happy.
So you won't be happy till Tony Stewart drives his
ad and survives a bear attack.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
They got marble floors.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
The what if you look in the In the next commercial,
we sees Tony Stewart driving through the woods in a
big RV number twenty and he's dragging meat behind. Right.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
When he gets like this, you just want a headbutty listen,
when he gets like this, he's acting like that that
the houses can't be broken by bears. And then somehow
that Tony Stewart's got something that's more sturdy than a house.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
They are.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
I'll tell you this, I would get one in big
silver airstreams. You look like like, yes, Bobby could get in.
Bobby go ahead.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
It's like spaceship.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
We're doing good.

Speaker 12 (19:00):
I've got a friend who lives in Upper Michigan and
his two aunts live out in the woods in a
log cabin with a six inch door, wooden door, and
a black bear broke into that slammed it down.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Like it was nothing.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah, say, they can't run through the old wooden doors.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
Somebody's home place.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
And I bet the grandmother was born in that house.
You may live in it.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
Now did you hear the level of door he was
talking about rig somebody's o home place. I kicked that
door down. Goodness, let's go to if I was mad,
Debbie and Mobile Davvy.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Go ahead, hi, y'all.

Speaker 9 (19:35):
I was watching TV the other night. Tell Greg if
he goes in that camper, y'all better not go with him.
Because there was a special on grizzly bears. And this
grizzly bear tore a hole in the side of a
camper a nice camp.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Because it's a camper.

Speaker 6 (19:54):
Camp, big, all of it.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
I have to say that you just changed your store.

Speaker 5 (19:58):
I'll have to.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
I saw a story the other day. One actually tore
into a Raptor airplane.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
It tore the wing right off of it, about ate
the wiring out of it.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
How about this, I'm gonna tell you this. And it
was it was up there.

Speaker 4 (20:12):
I believe it was in in in Montana where the
guy just called from buff shot a basketball over a
waterfall right there.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
It went over the waterfall right through nothing but nothing.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
But now, all right, let's go to I hope out
here though, but in Fairbanks, Alaska, was attacked by grizzly
in an RV.

Speaker 1 (20:34):

While off officials are celebrating the sighting of a beaver
in the Detroit River. It has been decades since a
beaver has been seen in those waters, signaling an effort
to clean up the waterway or actually paying off.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
People were weeping at the sight of this beaver.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
The Detroit Free Press reports that a beaver lodge has
been discovered at an intake canal at a Detroit Edison
Riverfront Plant officials believe the beaver spotted by the utility's
motion sensitive camera marks the animals return to the river
for the first time in seventy five years.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
Photos and video were taken back in November, but Detroit
Edison didn't want to release them until they could insure
the animals safety.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
You didn't want to get a lot of beaver hope
out there.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
John Hardig, Detroit River Huge manager for the US Fish
and Wildlife Services. The clean up along the river has
also brought back sturgeons, falcons and other species to the area.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
Can you there's some There is a person right now
who has a a a several acres of land and
beavers are destroying it, and and and he cannot get
the beavers eradicated, and he cannot believe that Detroit is
celebrating the arrival of the first beaver.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
As a matter of fact, he's thinking I could send
him a box full, right, I mean, just a pile
of beavers and have at it.

Speaker 4 (24:35):
I hope I don't show what with some red devil
lie though Greg speech get rid of again. I go

devil lie. What in the world is that It'll take
a beaver out That's how you get.

red devil lie or that one beaver's out.

Well, so some of your relatives are roaring into Detroit.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Well, Rick, you.

Speaker 14 (25:57):

How about if it gets to the intake of that
power plant, they're not gonna they're not gonna like that. No,

turb Yeah, they'll have a relocation project on your hands.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
They're gonna they're.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Gonna sturgeons get big enough they won't have to worry

They're gonna celebrate today.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
But if the beavers start doing what beavers do, they
will just what do you think by that? Well, no offense,

lot of work, and I mean you'll be boy, you'll
be active.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
Thank you. They got some good teas in that area.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
If you're had any that Detroit would I have.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
It up?

Speaker 1 (27:07):
I love it, I know.

Speaker 14 (27:08):
With Greg looking at my help, I wish you'd quit
with that red devil life.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
I'm going to eat the foundation of your house. Oh no, oh,
my goodness, anything with Michael Trophy.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
So there it is. Seventy five years. I mean that's
a long time.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Seeing seventy five years without a beaver, that is a
long time.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
I suspect that the Detroit River, when it comes to
water quality, is a nossvil. If I had to get I.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
Would say Detroit, Michigan and water quality do not go together.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
No, no, no, I doubt.

Speaker 4 (27:50):
Interesting story from last night if you remember, if you
listened to yesterday's program. When we left the show by
mom and Dad were in a discussion after celebrating forty
six years of marriage on whether the new ten point
buck deerhead would would be brought to their home.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
Right, Greg was going to carry it by and drop
it off.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
Well, I had a meeting. Greg and I had a
meeting about merchandise. Then after that I had another meeting.
Greg went off to his office, and then as I
was going out to my truck, I couldn't help but
notice the deerhead was still in my truck. So I
promptly called my brother and said, did you just not
going to take it? Oh?

Speaker 3 (28:33):
Well I forgot, Oh I forgot. Yeah, And I'm like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Yeah, I bet you forgot. I bet you forgot Coyward.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
So so then strangely, today my brother is sick, got
a fever, can't come to work. So the Deerhead continues
to ride in the truck with me. Well, so last
night I thought, well, my mom and dad are coming
to Brooks Big Love Burgesses football game, so I will

(29:05):
deliver the deer head. Then I thought, okay, you know,
let's go back in time a little bit if we could.
I believe the nickname for my ten year old son
when he was just a toddler. He was named Big
Love for what reason? Because he would hug toddlers to

(29:27):
the ground.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Yes, showing his love and affect.

Speaker 4 (29:29):
And he was a big toddler, and he would knock
other children down, bringing love, thus the name Big Love.
And he's a he's a big kid, and he's playing
as all Burgess children eventually do, in the interior line
for the Parking Recreation Falcons. So the Falcons we had
our first real game last night, regular season opened last

(29:52):
night and and the Falcons went on to you know,
and what was an emotional game for me playing the Packers.
We were successful and and we won the game and
in a big way, and and uh so so Big
Love knew he was gonna get French fries from his grandparents.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
Ah.

Speaker 4 (30:11):
He he wants his grandparents to come to every game
and if he does well, he's rewarded with French fries
because he loves McDonald's French fries.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
So remember, let's go change his name to pigeon.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
Right, Let's right, let's go back to why his nickname
is Big Love again. Is everybody remember why he was.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
So much love?

Speaker 4 (30:33):
Well, I'm on the field and we're wrapping up, and
I'm I'm dreading this, this confrontation with my parents about
the deerhead, but I'm I'm elated by the Falcons victory.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Okay, big moment.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
Yeah, So you know I'm talking, and you know, I'm
a I'm I'm trying to you know, we've addressed the
team and we're wrapping up. Well, we noticed in this
field we're playing in that they've got us kind of
blocked in. There's not a good gate to get out
from where we had our team meeting, and I'm gonna
have to all the way across the field then come
back around to the visitor side to the family. And

(31:06):
so Big Love chose not to do that and climbed
over a locked gate, which is fine, And I was
going to do the same thing, and.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
I love to see that.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
Yeah, I went right over like a like a nimble antelope.
But people amazed that big Man went right over by
the way. But before I could could do anything, now,
we have shoulder pads off, we have football pants. We've
got a one hundred and fifteen to eighteen pound ten

(31:38):
year old running toward his grandparents to celebrate the victory
and the fries. So I look around and I'm gathering
up stuff, and I look up and my mom is
lying on the ground.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Oh no, and uh oh no, And I'm like, hey,
what what what? What? What?

Speaker 3 (32:03):
What has just fall lip in the wet grass? Maybe no?

Speaker 4 (32:08):
Uh, Big Glove grabbed his grandmother and took her to
the ground.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Uh hit.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Yeah, and an embracement of love. Now, the fact that
my mom went down at her age was was was
not was bad enough. But it didn't take long for
me to realize that my mom is hurt. So so
so I'm like, and I see my dad now so

(32:37):
wanting his dear head, you know what I mean. Now,
you know I'm thinking that's off the table right now,
you know what I mean. Yeah, we're calling for trainers, right,
I mean, yes, Now did she fall back or was
it fell backwards and put her hand behind her and
snapping her wrist what so? So we immediately see the

(32:58):
wrist and we realized, hey, she's no, she's.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Hurt, broke wrist.

Speaker 4 (33:02):
So her wrist was was loved to a broken wrist.
So so so.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
We were dead on on that nickname, wasn't we Yeah,
that boy.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
We've had some nicknames we thrown out that may him
be questioned or people outgrow them.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
We're on that one. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:15):
So so, and you feel so bad for all parties involved.
And mom's trying to reassure a grandson that that she's
all right even though her hand's not working, and and and.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
So we've got a little experience in that. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
So, so then I pick up the phone and I
call our orthopedic surgeon friend, doctor Larry Lee mack uh
Doctor Lee mack Hey, man, what's wrong? Well, we're at
the football field. What what what who's hurt?

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Well?

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Not the player?

Speaker 9 (33:45):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (33:45):
The players?

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Fine? What what?

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Which son is hurting?

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Doc? He's fine? So what it was it in the
football game? Not not exactly. Uh, it was in the
victorious celebration. Nana was injured in a victorious celebration. Grandmother
to the game, right, he said, someone was hurt? What
my mom was hurt during the victorious celebration? He says

(34:11):
she was? Was she what did the team jump on her?
I said, no, just just Big Love? And uh was
she in a we all? Was it a victory line?

Speaker 3 (34:21):
Look?

Speaker 4 (34:21):
She got knocked down? And so he said, all right,
you know, you just don't expect to call and say
your mama was hurting the victory.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
So, my Big Love, but when when you're when your
mom headed to the game last night, you know, anytime
you play contact sport, you hope there's not injury. But
I bet she never thought she was going to be
the one eating surgery. No, no, she'll be right, Bob.

Speaker 9 (34:41):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (34:42):
So we goes on down to the emergency room, and
you know, and we didn't have to counsel Big Love
and try to find some way to tell him it's
all right, big.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Fella, you know what I mean, and giving big love.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
Right and uh.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
And then Mom would say things which I thought was courageous.

Speaker 4 (34:57):
If I just seen him coming, you know what I mean,
and I could have break right right, And I thought,
by by the way you're describing it, it sounds like
she got pancaked.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
She did, yeah, on a crack back. And of course
it was it a dec leader? Uh was she moving
forward or was it did she being backwards? Was it
a pancake?

Speaker 4 (35:15):
Sherry described it as one of those moments where everything
goes slow motioned right, you know what I mean. She said,
I couldn't get there in time, and and and then
of course there's just that little hint that has to
be sprinkled, you know what I mean. Well, if you
hadn't worked him in such a friends out there, I'm
like out the Book of Black Well wait a minute,
she goes, well, you get them all stirred up, and
I said, well, you know, football is a game of
testosterone and uh.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
And then and then she was like, how did you
do during the game?

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Very well, very well, yes, very well, keep moving those
feet after contact.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
Uh huh, yeah, that's right. When Nana big they said
he ran right through her.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
Yeah, piled up quarterback in the back field for a
fumble one time. That was big. So she went all
kind of all you know that that that that moment
of recapping the game was kind of robbed because we
went from ready to recap the game to hey, wow,
Nana's hurt, you know what I mean? So uh and
you did want hishead so bad, but he did, and
I think he and I both agreed we would not
address that. Still riding with me, uh so, uh because

(36:11):
Dan said he didn't think he wanted it in the
van next to his wife and he took her to
the emergency round right, uh so? Uh So, her her
wrist was was broke. It was a clean break though.
That was a good news, and so that it wasn't
like dislocated or out of whack. So they have it
in a soft cast now and splint, No, no, it

(36:34):
didn't look like it.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
Just real quick.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Well that's good. Let's all be happy about that. Yeah,
that's a positive.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Now, at what point did you realize all right, this
is gone a mom's down and this is really bad.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
Well, I mean, how long did it take you did
was she screaming?

Speaker 4 (36:50):
Was she out out My footage just landed on the
on on the track or the area around the field.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
Was it on the track it happened. Sure, it wasn't
even the grass, No, how it was on the heart. Yeah,
the minute I saw her down.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
Yeah, you know, no, and I you know, I love
my mom and she's not I mean, she's in her
late sixties. You just figure that a woman, you know,
of any age being knocked down could lead.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
To any that's ever good.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
But you figure a grandmother going down is usually doesn't
turn out that great.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
And uh, you know, and so many times, and you
know he was standing back up. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (37:27):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
And when I saw it coming from Tuesday, I didn't
see the collision, but I saw my wife's face and
the lack of color in it. Yeah, and uh and
and then I saw my mother's face, who's trying to
act like she's not hurt because she knows it's gonna
hurt her grandson's feelings. And you know, he felt terrible
about it, as we all did. But it was, you know,
it was it was.

Speaker 3 (37:48):
You know, you know, our reflex is just to put
our arm down, to try to break her fault, you know,
and really, if she had just tucked and rolled out
of it.

Speaker 4 (37:55):
Well, you know, and this is one of those times
she never think about that. As you're going she thinks
to herself, if I could just have one grandson that's
a skilled player, maybe you couldn't knocked me down.

Speaker 3 (38:03):
I guess. I guess all the years with your dad
coaching and in high school and then in college, she
was never pancake by one of the players and on their.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Pads, thrown in the air maybe once. But yeah, nice
nice evening, Rick.

Speaker 3 (38:22):
You know, at our house we were talking about animals earlier,
and I know you have a touching dog story. Today
we've got a dog that we love dearly. And we've
got two cats, Chloe and Einstein, and uh Chloe and
of course dog Reagan. And Einstein is the new kitten
and uh, he's just full of of uh, you know,

(38:44):
kitten activities. He likes to run around and jump and
get into stuff, as most kittens do. They're pretty funny
to watch, especially if you've got a laser porn or hey,
there's a party.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
You know what they do, love those they do.

Speaker 3 (38:54):
I don't know what it is. What did we do
for entertainment with cats before we had lasers. I know, uh,
you know, laser is good for a lot of things,
cat chasing probably the best of all. But I came
in the other day and uh, I really wasn't gonna
tell this story, but Betty, oh boy, Betty said I
needed to share it with you, and she threatened to cough.

(39:15):
I didn't, so, yeah, I bring it on.

Speaker 4 (39:17):
Boy.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
Well, because the kids are in the den and they're
watching TV, and uh, i'd been out moving some things
and I had taken my shirt off, you know, just
to uh you know, it was kind of warm out there.
And absolutely I came in and laid down up a
little bit. Yeah, you know, do what I can around
the house. Great visual and uh, you know, I came
in and I was gonna cool off for a few minutes.
And I laid down on the couch and we're watching

(39:41):
a little bit of TV and and here comes Einstein,
you know, chasing the latest, you know, shoe string or
whatever he's after. And so I thought, you know, I'll
just lay here for a minute, pet the cat and
cool off a little bit and relax, and so I
grabbed up Einstein and I laid him up on my
chest and he's he's very uh uh, you know, he's
very loving cat. And he rolled over and laid down

(40:03):
and I was petting him. He's a little gray tabby
and uh still shirtless. Yeah yeah, I mean I'm sitting
I'm cooling off, you know, just having a great family time.
You know, some of the kids the cat, you know,
watching a little TV. And for some unknown reason, he
rolled over and attached himself to I don't know how

(40:25):
to describe it, my breastacle and then took his little
paws and started pushing you know how they do when
they're trying to get some some milk out, and uh,
the same. I will say this, I came off that

(40:46):
couch pretty quick because one, he's got sharp little teeth,
yes he does.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
He's not exactly a kid.

Speaker 4 (40:51):
Eat.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
The kids started hollering there, laughing. You know, I've got
a hairy chest. I guess he got all relaxed and thought, hey,
you know, I'm back with mamma again. This is like the.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
Good old day, you know what, this red thing.

Speaker 3 (41:02):
Uh so you know, I think I'll just have a
little snack while I'm here. Look, but bless his heart,
I had to explain to him, no luck there, you
know what I mean not.

Speaker 4 (41:12):
Look, I'm not trying to tell you what to do,
nor am I an expert in this area. But based
on what you just told me, whatever you are doing
to that cat petting wise.

Speaker 3 (41:18):
Back right, he apparently was a little too relaxed for me.
And uh, you know, the term dry socket came to mind.
And uh, but uh, you know, I used to make
the joke job about Betty when she was pregnant, that
she had these pre natal vitamins. And I thought, well,

(41:40):
you know, we got vitamins, and these are extra good vitamins.
They cost a little bit more. They got all this
extra stuff in it, so I'll just take them to
you know, what would it hurt. I'll just you know,
why buy two vitamins hers and my flint stop. You know,
we'll just use her. And I used to make the
joke that, you know, I enjoyed it. I had a
lot of energy, but for some unexpected reason, I felt
like nursing the cat. And now you know what that jokes.

(42:04):
It's not funny anymo, It's not to me. Wow wow, Yeah,
I just I guess the you know, the hairy chest
and all. And he thought, well, hey, I'll just you know,
I'll have a snack while I'm here, all laid back
like Willie Ralph and all excited and more, you know,
like a rat.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
Thatsh cheese.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
Well, the kids have had a lot of fun. I'll
tell you that.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
That's one of those. You gotta go walk around out
in your.

Speaker 3 (42:24):
For a little oh shirt. How many times do you
think of kids? Brought me a cup and said, hey,
filler up there.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
So that'll make you start to My goodness, that explains
a whole lot.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
By the way, that's where you go out there and
pet your dog a little bit.

Speaker 1 (42:41):
How you doing, big fella?

Speaker 3 (42:42):
Yeah, well be and the cat we're very close. Yeah,
now that now that i'm his mother, it didn't happen.
I'm thinking, I'm thinking, come on, you're so you mean
you're a cat? You got nine live, you could survive
in the wood to buy yourself. You didn't figure out
that that wouldn't work, right.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
Right, that's that tongue felt good?

Speaker 3 (43:01):
Oh I no sandpaper thing. He's the probably we never
got that far. So how long did he just lax stone?

Speaker 1 (43:08):
How hold you have? How long you have?

Speaker 3 (43:10):
Not long?

Speaker 8 (43:10):
You?

Speaker 3 (43:12):
I don't know if you've ever tried to pry one
off though, that's the thing. Yeah, he kind of locked
down there.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Did he have it for one Mississippi?

Speaker 3 (43:19):
Huh? Probably one Mississippis. I was trying to stand up.
It takes you just a second to figure out what's
going on. Am I being stung by a bee? One Mississippi? Oh?

Speaker 9 (43:35):
That's awful.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
But anybody that says I don't love cats, you just
don't know what you're talking. That's right. Oh the mother
I've always wanted to be mother.

Speaker 7 (43:46):
We'll be back, ricking bubba, ricking bubba.

Speaker 4 (43:52):
I know a lot of you out there feel guilty
about your carbon footprint, and let me tell you something.
There is a scam artist ready to take that guilt
away from you, a little something called carbon credits.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
Rick. This this has to be and will go down
in history. It's one of the biggest scammer ramas of
all time.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
Unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
Uh, this makes the Snake All Salesman and The Traveling
Show look like a warm up act.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
And I want you to if anyone within the sound
of this voice, and I only wish I was live
on XM right now because I would have a better
shout of ask you getting a call right okay, but
I want to tell you this, and if you're hearing
it on XM this email email me.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
I'd like to get an email from you.

Speaker 4 (44:33):
I'd like for you to contact me in some way,
shape or form if you are really concerned about your
carbon footprint and you have or are willing to purchase
a carbon credit I got at the airport anywhere. Look,
I guess it is about airport today. But if you've
ever done it already, or you really think you should,
I gotta talk to you, Okay, I have to.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
I have to. It's almost like seeing Bigfoot. I mean,
I gotta. I want to know if that's anybody.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
And Rick I've pointed out and we talked about before
on the show that this is going to lead to
green pirates, and I may start that. I may, I
may become a green pie.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
I'm considering it.

Speaker 3 (45:16):
Also. What I'm gonna do. I'm gonna find one of
these spineless, mindless green people and I'm going to tell
them I've got a sharp chainsaw and I've got several
acres of trees. If they don't pay me, I'm going
right now and I'm gonna cut one down with a chainsaw. No, no,
no no no no no no no no no, pay
me and I'll cut it off. No no, no, no
no no no oh, here's your money.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
How does it see?

Speaker 3 (45:39):
And then I'll go see you next week.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
How does it stop? What if you locked the blade
and trigger?

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Well, during Halloween, I'm just going to tell the trigger
treaters to give me some green you know, green money,
and I'll donate it.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
So about that's a good idea.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
Let's listen to this one right now. This is the
latest in the green movement. You'll love this, and of
course in San Francisco.

Speaker 3 (46:05):
Only only in San Francisco with this table.

Speaker 4 (46:08):
By the way, Speedy's pulling up the website so we
can do it ourselves. Were can calculate, well, is.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
There anything that San Francisco cannot pervert anymore? Anything? Anything
they cannot just absolutely take and twist it the wrong one?

Speaker 4 (46:21):
You could pick a topic, tell San Francisco, I bet
you can't pervert this. They say, I bet I can.

Speaker 8 (46:26):
And uh.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
Today today at San Francisco's International Airport, that's SFO for
you travelers, we are launching the Climate Passport program. There's
a website. Believe it or not, We've got it. Pulled out.
I I hate to mention to this. That computer they're
easy to look at the website is burning electricity and
also causing carbon footprint. They will be allowing travelers to

(46:50):
offset the impact of their air travel through an airport Kiosk.
This will be the world's first airport Kiosk, giving people
the opportunity to calculate the environmental impact of their flights
and purchase carbon offsets or carbon credits to address that

(47:10):
impact before they even leave the airport. You can feel
guilty on the spot, Rick and pay it off.

Speaker 1 (47:18):
Let me see you love.

Speaker 3 (47:20):
I love this concept too. This is something we've seen
in our country for a long time. If you have
a problem with something, then you feel your conscious bot
right and I feel guilty. You can do one of
two things. You can either change your behavior so you
don't feel guilty again, or pay your way out of it.

(47:40):
And this is just the perfect for me. If you
really think that your airplane rides so destructive to the environment,
you need to right now. You need to You need
to do this.

Speaker 4 (47:51):
Stay at the house, all right. Look, they can't even
don't travel. Look, please read that paragraph where does your
money go? Will you please click on that speedy Where
does your money get?

Speaker 3 (48:01):
You see it?

Speaker 1 (48:02):
You can help art.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
You have to read it. I can't see it.

Speaker 1 (48:08):
Where's it going? It goes to the uh It's river forest?
Uh Garcia River Forest.

Speaker 4 (48:14):
All right, there's going to the California's California's north coast,
to the Garcia River Forest.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
Oh, here it is, here it is, I got it.
It says, where does the money go? The city has
conducted extensive research. Now Gosh knows the city. Gosh knows
the city has enough time and money to conduct extensive research.
City workers on each project supported by the program to
ensure that all carbon offsets are sourced from a specific

(48:42):
project that results in real, quantifiable, permanent greenhouse gas emission reductions.
What in the world? Now, keep in mind, all of
this is theoretical science in their calculations anyway.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
But let me say, what do they physically.

Speaker 6 (49:00):
The money?

Speaker 4 (49:01):
If I remember writing carbon carbon credits. And when I
say this, some of you saying, Rick, now you're really
taking your comedic liscens and running with it. This is
how I understand it.

Speaker 3 (49:09):
It's like they're trying it.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
Basically, they're trying to save the trees. If I'm guilt.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
If I feel guilty about my flight, I calculate my flight,
it gives me a figure, which, by the way, where
the world's figure come from, And it says you owe
this much? Musty one?

Speaker 1 (49:22):
What for that flight? And then they go plant trees
to offset what I just damaged?

Speaker 4 (49:28):
Is that right?

Speaker 3 (49:29):
Let's listen. If they want to ground airplanes, they have
a legitimate, at least intellectually honest argument from their flawed logic. Okay,
I understand that ground all airplanes, ground private jets. By
the way, that's you know, even worse.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Good luck trying to get the v H one divas.

Speaker 3 (49:52):
But still well, that's the point ground it that get this.
The offsets for climate change passport customers UH based carbon
Firm three degrees are currently sourced from the Garcia River Forest,
a conservation based forest management project located in uh Some, California.

Speaker 15 (50:14):
Is that named after Jerry Garcia by the way, don't
know or Jeff quarterback. Listen to this. Listen to this project.
It's formerly a heavily cut forest. This project is helping
bring back redwood and Douglas fir trees to the Garcia
River Forest. As a result, huge.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Amounts of carbon dioxide are absorbed and stored, and native
habitats are restored and protected.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
I've actually got an audio here we can play in
a sa from one.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
But now get this. Let me tell you what this means.
Let me let me give you code name for what
this means. The Garcia River Valley in a very few
years will have so much undergrowth and brush in it
that there will be a lightning strike and it will
burn that sucker to the ground, every square inch of it.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
And all that money you paid just.

Speaker 3 (51:03):
And all that money you paid went up and smoke,
not to mention the carbon footprint from the wildfire.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Here's there, here's when they're supposed people.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
I want to lord.

Speaker 4 (51:19):
The old grumb.

Speaker 9 (51:22):
Three like.

Speaker 3 (51:26):
And tell them that we love just and that we
don't what do to die, That were are some people
here who do you care? Well? I want them to know.
And I'm gonna call the Garcia River Forest Project. Another
group here is called dog Patch Bottle Fuel. I'm not

(51:49):
I wish I was making this up. Okay, I'm gonna
call them and I'm gonna tell them I'm holding a
pine tree hostage today and that baby is going down
if my check ain't in the mail, and I want
it FedEx to a private secret po box. Let's call them.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
I'm going to that airport.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
I'm standing by that kiosk, and I'm cussing everybody.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
That I'm not I'm gonna slap them.

Speaker 3 (52:10):
I am almost say you can find the new climate
passport Kiosk post security on both sides of the International
terminal and in Terminal three.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
I gotta go.

Speaker 4 (52:22):
It'd be like me, you know, like Gorilla's in the
Mist when Jane Goodall went and lived among the gorillas.
I want to go hang around that kiosk and just
watch and just go, Man.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Look that this is really who's doing it?

Speaker 3 (52:37):
How much does let's say kind of payment Let's say
in a hostage idiot payment do you have to make
Let's say.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
You are going to travel six hundred miles a short
flight two hours. Okay, you owe h three dollars and
forty four cents. Okay, let's say you're gonna travel they
came up with three dollars and forty four ceeds.

Speaker 3 (52:55):
That's what I'm talking. Yeah, somebody, Let's.

Speaker 2 (52:56):
Say let's say they're gonna travel two thousand miles a
four hour trip. You have about eleven dollars and forty
four cents.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
If I owe money when I travel, will they pay
me to stay at home?

Speaker 13 (53:06):
Mean?

Speaker 3 (53:07):
Ah, we pay farmers not to plant, pay me not
to fly subsidies.

Speaker 1 (53:11):
Rick and Bubba Gravel Green Pirates. Rick and Bubba Green Pirates. Great,
would you be somebody going up to the kias?

Speaker 3 (53:18):
I don't think we could. I'm gonna be honest with you.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
Hello, welcome to the Climate Passports.

Speaker 4 (53:23):
Yes you know, I just flew in from the East
Coast to the West coast and I feel guilty if
you really as I was flying over and I began
to cry the number of trees I was damaging and
my carbon footprint was something that became a weight on
my conscience. For eleven dollars and forty four cents, I
don't forget about this.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
I didn't know Mike Tyson was flying today.

Speaker 2 (53:43):
He was.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
It was Mike Tyson hanging out.

Speaker 6 (53:47):
Hey, it's speedy.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
And this is Rick and Bubba's greatest tits flashing back
through thirty one years of Radio Gold. Every Saturday morning,
wherever you get your podcast, it's Rick and Bubba's greatest tis,
