echo of me in mine.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
You have an Yeah, you got two echoes. It's really
an echo or it's like you're in a bucket now.
I feel I hear just a hint of it.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
I do not hear it. I have no idea what
it is. If it's there, it's very faint in mind.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
This is gregcho All of y'all sound normal. I have

Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's weird. I don't see anything. You're here an echo? Oh,
I wish you'd put these on listens. Go over and
listen to speedy.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
Listen to it.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
We'll get we'll get time. Check check. Uh, there's nothing

This very like welcome.

Speaker 5 (04:20):
Oh yeah, yeah, welcome to the Birmingham Bowl, Jay lab Why.

Speaker 4 (04:25):
Are you talking? You can talk normally, it'll still.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
Here it, I know, but it makes me feel like
I'm in a studio stadium.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
So oh yeah, okay, this is a.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
Mic processor thing. Yeah yeah, this is because this mike
is on a different processor. Oh it is okay, yeah,
do you want to go over there on the guests.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
And see idea? Big Greg going to the big Boy,
know Rick, Greg's going over to the big Boy. I
can't hear that, Greg. It may have, but I wanted
us to stick with it. Check check. Yeah it's bad
here too, is it? Yeah? Okay? But do you hear
do you hear us echo? No? But I don't sound

(05:06):
echoed to you. Different process, so I don't sound I
don't sound echo to you. Uh they turned speed back up.
Do I do I talk? No? Okay? Do I yes?

Speaker 5 (05:17):
Okay, I don't hear any echoes. Everybody's saying Greg is
now so I hear a little echo now, speedy, so
on air, you're not hearing an echo. It's just in
our headphones.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
It is. Okay, Well that helps you.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
That's great, all right.

Speaker 5 (05:30):
So we're just doing this live because we didn't know
till we didn't know till now.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Now now I'm wondering why there would be an echo,
why would the processors be good? Then when we left you,
I don't know. There was a that a update yesterday
it was does that mean people in here tampering? I
don't know.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
I don't think so. It's just it was just and
they've done that one hundred times.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
See right now it's that city. Yeah, you got fight
through it, buddy, Yeah, how you do one? You welcome everybody.
I mean you're going to talk a lot more drunk
than you normally sound.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
Yeah, it's messing me up. It's like.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
I talked through it. I thought I was gonna be
sharp and BPA announcer one time at Jacksonville State. I'd
never done it before and in a stadium that had
that kind of delay, and I sound like the drunk PA.
And then I got to where I had had to
learn just to listen to myself. Yes, and not listening
to the stadium. Yes, so I don't know why that is,

(06:26):
but that's pretty sharp. But time's gonna get when those
wake up, cause.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
I kind of hold, well, if nobody can hear it
on air, but you think you can deal with that
the whole time, that's all.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
We're gonna hear, which I can understand. That's tough. It's
a new sound. That's tough, Like, hey, what's up? I'm good?
When all else fails, should we just just reboot something?
I don't know how to reboot where I don't even
know where those processors.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
He might and he can.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
He can pipe in remotely and see what.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
If we unplugged it and plugged it back in again?

Speaker 6 (06:57):
Yeah, that always works.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
Well, this is what I thought would. The thing that
always bothers me because I don't know the answer, is
how can everything be set with no problem for days
and weeks on end, and then we go home on
a regular day, come back and some of the mics
have echoes? How does that happen?

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Like?

Speaker 1 (07:16):
What changed that?

Speaker 4 (07:18):
Tom did say he was going to update something. I'm
not saying that's what I.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Don't think it And there it is, like I know
Tom'm going to enjoy this echo. Tom got in here
looking at deer pictures and one paid attention, so we'll
we'll work on that. So we got Christmas cash.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
But hold on, just so I'm very precise on what
I talked to Tom about. The echo is not translating
on air. It's only in our headphones, right, And it's
just you and I find because we're on the same process.
I don't I don't hear echo from anybody because we're
the process I learn and I are the ones still
sound like wearing a bucket.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yes, it's like it's so much to echo. Is like
you're in the shower and you want to say got
it saying can I say this and be sure I'm accurate?
You guys hear echo talking in your MIC's and whoever's
talking in the guest mic?

Speaker 5 (08:08):
Yes, you're right, And but do you hear an echo
when you talk in your mic? Are only the echo
that's coming from him?

Speaker 4 (08:13):
When I talk, I'm echo like my much braid man.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
It's Greg Gachoey. Greg talk for me real quick, buddy, now,
So you're not really echoed to me?

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Yeah, you sound normal to me also.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
But Tim my head said, I'm way when you were
on Big Boy Mike, you you heard echo in the headphones, yes,
talking in that same thing that you got right here,
But you didn't hear a speedy echoe over there on
his on yours on mine? Was he echo in yours? Yes? Okay?
Why is it? Why? Okay? So it seems to affect
those three mics. Yeah, so there you go.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
All I want for Christmas is some mics.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
That I know everybody. Everybody's enjoying this segment. I get it.
Somebody said they think it's the ghost from the actor
that we may find with Zapfro that played Luke on
General Oh anytime, anytime, it should make fun of the Afro.
We just pointed out, that's that's that's our assessments always wrong.
You have no idea what this sounds like while I'm talking, Oh,

(09:09):
it's horrible. So I can't hear that. You're go worr
about that toe show. And I would too, I wouldn't
be a tolerated you know what you have to do.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
That sounds good, Yeah, that sounds good.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
You're all gonna have to do the show with no headphones.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
I think you're right.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
I think I'm just gonna be echo man. We got
underwater man. I'm gonna be echo man. Could could be
a Gary prank. Gary's got in here somehow. I'll be shower.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
I'll be shower man, and I won't wear any clothes
the whole show because it sounds like I'm in the shower.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
I'm in the shower. All right, yall, We'll be back,
stay close. More of the show coming up. Christmas Cash today,
you bet.

Speaker 6 (09:48):
This is the Rick Burgers Show.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, America, America, America. Merry Christmas from all of us
here at the Rick Burgess Show. Thank you for a
great first year. Two shows left today and tomorrow tomorrow
the Rick Burgess Show Christmas Party. Gary's going to be here.

(10:18):
Andy Andrews will be here, Uh so Andrew, good old
Andy and soboking win some Christmas cash tomorrow and be
truer bs uh. And of course Gary will just be Gary.
Uh and we'll all be Yeah, we'll all be celebrating tomorrow.
Uh So.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
I wish Gary would come in with his own be
true Byes story.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Hey, I was out there and I was hunting, and
I'm telling you I saw a black panther with some kittens.
Be true will be yes and so that'll so we'll
Gary will be here tomorrow. You know what else we
need to do. Let's check with them. We need old
Span on tomorrow. Just tell us, tell us, you know,
to go ahead and give us the look over the

(11:08):
next couple of weeks, weather patters for Christmas and new
mills and all that, and and you know, just I
think everybody just wants to hear from Span on the
final show of the year. More and more updates continue
to come in on Sharon Moore. My goodness, what a story.
Uh right here, as the college football playoffs starts tomorrow,

(11:29):
We've got Miami and Texas A and m interesting game.
Alabama Oklahoma will actually be tomorrow. Uh. And then you
got the Oregon James Madison game, and then two Lane
and old Miss two Lane O Miss. I think is
more interesting that it would have been that if Lane
Kiffin was still there. Yeah, five touchdowns. You you kind

(11:52):
of you kind of sense that this weekend, all the
teams that are playing this weekend, Okay, I'm trying to
think if one would jump out at me, this is
a bit of a bold statement, but all the teams
that are playing this weekend, any of them that win,
I don't see them going to the Semis and winning again,

(12:14):
none of them. I would be surprised. I think the
four that are getting the bye weeks are going to
play for the national championship. Yeah, they're the four best teams,
no doubt so. So anyway, but we'll see anything can
happen in the playoffs. So and you know, it just
seems the teams that are all playing this weekend, and
I don't know enough about Oregon, so I could be

(12:34):
completely wrong about Oregon. I feel good about them against
James Madison though, But but it's like every team that
is in the first round, and some of them had
great seasons at the end of the season. And I
would say other than Old Miss and now the Kiffen
thing now makes them a little tainted. But they all
weren't playing as well at the end as they were

(12:56):
at like mid season. Yeah, you know, and and so
that they didn't, they're not going into the playoff playing
their best football. Does that makes sense? It does?

Speaker 7 (13:06):
So.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
I would even say that with Oklahoma's quarterback, you know,
their offense is kind of falling off, their defense is
kind of carrying them right now. And he had he
was really on a road, but they were talking Heisman
and all that coming out of the Alabama's quarterbacks kind
of gone downhill toward the end. I think both of
them have some injuries they're dealing with, probably, but I'll
just be honest. And then you were talking about want
to be fired up for the playoffs, and I know

(13:27):
you can't help it. You're going to, I mean, if
you're trying to get the best teams, but I'm just
not excited about watching Alabama and Oklahoma again. Of course
they play, yeah, yeah, well so I'm going to watch it,
but I'm just not that excited.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
If Oregon were to beat James Madison, which we feel
like we would, they would play Texas Tech. And do
you think Texas Tech would beat Oregon?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Of course? Okay?

Speaker 5 (13:48):
And then you have Indiana and the Rose Bowl beating
Alabama or Oklahoma, yes, okay. And then if but if
Ole Miss beats Two Lane, then they played Georgia.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Georgia would beat them.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
And then and if Texas A and M beats Miami
or Miami tex in and what they would play Ohio
State State.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Would beat them? All right. Yeah, the one I'm not
as confident with as Oregon. Texas Tech. Yah. I don't
know if Texas Tech is really what they say they
are because I just haven't seen them play, right.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
We heard from that oil billionaire that built the team, yea,
and they seem like they have some talent. But yeah,
that'll be interesting.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
They bought some talent, definitely did. Yeah, but we'll see.
And it's I do think I will be surprised if
Alabama does not beat Oklahoma. Yeah, definitely that that would
surprise me. I'm not saying it can't happen. No, but
because Oklahoma's proven they can beat them. But it's tough. Yeah,

(14:49):
It's beaten teams the level of Alabama twice in one season.
That's an uphill climb. That's a tough one. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
So so in the top bracket the way it all
kind of gets to the championship game, Alabama or Oklahoma
is the only SEC team in that top bracket. In
the lower bracket you got Ole, Miss, Georgia and Texas
A and M. So you don't see an SEC matchup
in the National Championship Game, No, because it would have.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
To be Alabama or Oklahoma.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
And I'm telling you, I'm telling you Georgia, I'm talking
about everybody's playing right now. I know where it comes
to texting. Surely all fan bases. You can look at
your team, can't you, and take your glasses off and go,
we're either playing really really well right now, or we're
not playing as well as we were at the peak
of our season. I'm injuries, take the blinders off, take

(15:43):
the uniform colors off. Can't you just look at it
from a football standpoint? And I'm going to tell you,
from a football standpoint, I was absolutely shocked at how
good Indiana is on both sides of the ball. How
they got is there's so much better than they were
last year. Uh, it's it's shocking. And I don't I

(16:05):
don't know enough about them to know how they did it.
I guess the you know, the portal in the in ile, whatever.
But they are a solid football team on both sides
of the ball, and so is Ohio State. And I
would say of the SEC teams playing right now with
with the grittiness to beat those two teams, is Georgia.
I don't think the other SEC teams are. They don't

(16:28):
look like they're good enough to beat those two teams
when the season ended. Maybe maybe they've got their injuries fixed,
and all the teams are beat up, so that's part
of it. And maybe they've got their legs under them.
And A and A and A playoff is a new beginning,
so I'm all about that. I'm simply talking about the
football that I saw at the end of the season.
Ohio State, Indiana and Georgia with the three best teams.

(16:51):
I agree.

Speaker 5 (16:52):
I will tell you this, and I said this even
when Lane left, I'd be scared of on this right now.
I just would they that the way because they got
most of the offensive staff still there, defensive coordinators now,
the head coach. But it's going to be interesting to
see if some of these teams outside the SEC, because
that's been the big complaint. Can they put multiple games

(17:13):
back to back to back?

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Can? Can you? Now?

Speaker 5 (17:16):
Ohio State did that? But can they put that in
a row? Because the SEC is hardened on every weekend
as another another climb. And so if you're Indiana, can
they put a couple of games back to back like
they played January first and they played January ninth, and
then they'd make it to the championship and they might
can Ohio State did that last year?

Speaker 1 (17:37):
So Ohio State got in the playoff and beat everybody
pretty easy.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
Yeah, and they didn't play well towards the end of
the year either. So it's just it's just going to
get to see who's all hot. But it'll be interesting.
It starts Friday night, so seven o'clock Central, ABC.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
The way I started that with the Sharon More update,
they now have update back to him in Michigan that
he was dumped by that staffer that he was having
the affair with two days before the alleged knife attack,
and bleary eyed mug shot emerges. He was dumped by
the staffer he was having an affair and proceeded to
bombard the woman with text messages and just like got

(18:13):
totally obsessed with her, was freaking out over her breaking
it off with him, and then got to the point
where he allegedly tried to threaten her with a knife.
But they're saying this off, this switch flipped because she
broke it off with him and he did not like that.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
Did she break it off and then go to the
school or did she break it off he freaks out
then the school gets involved.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
I think that's your timeline. The second one you said, okay.

Speaker 5 (18:40):
Yeah, because she went with receipts to the school. He said,
now I'm gonna show you. That's why they said, okay,
we have definitive evidence. We have proof of what's been
going on because she showed him.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Yeah, I said, so raise your hand out there. If
you love you like to have a little hot chob Yeah, baby,
I love hot chocolate. And I will tell you that
I never thought that I would be the person that
would have a difficult time going to sleep. Never thought

(19:12):
i'd be that person, never had a problem with it.
But as I've gotten older, I have found that that
that is the case. But I don't want to get
you know, just take anything to any sleep aid you
got you got to watch that. But I want to
talk to you about Beam b E a M. It's

(21:00):
back to where it was. And honestly, and you this
may feel weird coming from me because usually I think
we're over the top on all this. I'm looking at
the world right now, Oh yeah, more dangerous than ever. Yeah,
I mean the world is more dangerous than ever and
it's not something to lay awake and ignite about or
being anxious about or stop living you life. But I
have to acknowledge that. And sometimes I wonder that our

(21:25):
podcast Strange Encounters start all this.

Speaker 5 (21:27):
Well, but it's you're saying less access is better in
some situations.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
I put it this way, There's never been a better
time to have an ongoing discussion about demons. Yeah, because
it is amen the dark forces right now. You know
when things are not just the typical somebody got mad
and you know it's it's dark, twisted, ugly, ugly stuff.
And speaking and speaking of rob ron Er, wow, I
mean the the the latest on that now. Now the

(21:54):
security pictures of the Sun just going by an convenience
store of getting a drink after leaving their home, just
kind of walking around.

Speaker 5 (22:02):
And then he goes and checks into a hotel or
something like that. And then the the the clean up
crew said they thought that there was blood in the
room and so.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's just it's just all had all the windows covered up.

Speaker 5 (22:14):
I didn't realize that he lived the Sun in a
guest house on the property. Uh so I'm sure where
they lived that there's security footage that. Yeah, that's that that,
you know, like, did it? Was it premeditated? Was it
heated passion of some kind of argument?

Speaker 4 (22:32):
Well?

Speaker 2 (22:32):
What we know the night day before there was.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Well we know there was an argument at Conan O'Brien's
Christmas party, yep, because he showed up in a hoodie
and started acting strange and uh and got in the fight,
an argument with his dad about probably the waves behaving.

Speaker 5 (22:46):
Yeah, and he was asking everybody if they were famous.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah, and probably you know, since he's not right for
years of drug abuse and and all that stuff does
open yourself up to some dark, dark stuff obviously. And
that's not speculation because what he did was wicked, dark
and evil when you slaughter your own parents and then

(23:10):
go get something to drink at the convenience store. We'll
be right back.

Speaker 6 (23:14):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
I heard it. I could. I thought it's there. Yeah,
nothing's changed, Yeah, a little better? Is it a little better?
We're talking about Greg's Okay, we're talking. We're talking about
Greg's echo. He hey echo here he and Adler came
in today.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Do I still sound weird? I do still sound weird?

Speaker 1 (23:38):
Okay, but not to me just to you, well, weird.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
That's really nice. No, you sound totally cool all the time.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
Man, Tom the Tom the engineer says it will require
a reboot of everything in the studio and he's not
going to do that during the show because it could
be bad and speed. He's got one comment on that.
Huh he told him, Huh did you tell him? That's
what I said? That's what I said. I don't really

(24:11):
Where are you on this headline today? Dan Bongino resigning
from FBI deputy director role in January.

Speaker 5 (24:19):
You know, there was there was a rumor of that
that it might take place. Trump was asked about it,
I believe yesterday when the announcement was made, and he said, yeah,
he's just ready to get back to his show. He
kind of wants to as to get to get back
to what he loves to do.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
And so yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:36):
Pongina was on Fox talking about how just the distance
from his family is really wearing on everyone. He had
positive things to say about Cash. He's like, man, that
guy gets there at six thirty in the morning, leaves
at seven at night. I'm shortly behind him. All that.
Enjoyed my time. But like you guys said I'm leaving
my position with the FBI in January.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Yeah, I think it was one of those things he
went and then he tried to serve his country. He
thought this role needed to what the FBI has had
real issues, try to get in their clean things up
a little bit. But I think this this far into it,
he's like, wow, this is coming, as you said, Adler,
And I saw him talking about that too at a
personal some personal costs that he doesn't want to give
up anymore. And maybe he's got in there and has

(25:21):
done enough. Uh, and Patel can kind of, you know,
get somebody else to come in now that's somewhere has
sort of the same views. Some of the stuff you
just get burned out.

Speaker 7 (25:33):
Man.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
It's almost like a tag team wrestling match. You got
to tag somebody else in, you know. And and it
feels like that with with with Bongino and he actually
he turned a lot of stuff upside down. Why he
was there.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
I'm ready for him to get back to his show too,
because I enjoyed it very much. It is a good show,
and he seemed more.

Speaker 6 (25:54):
Of course.

Speaker 4 (25:54):
I mean, if you're working for the FBI, that's gonna
limit what you're able to say on your broadcast, And
it was odd thing to see his stance change on
a few things once he got on the inside. That
was concerning and disheartening a little bit. Oh really about
the FBI.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't know that. I guess at least
I don't really I don't follow it.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
But yeah, I'll be very interested to hear his show
when he returns. I hear his take from the inside.

Speaker 5 (26:20):
I mean, being a former Secret Service agent and everything.
I think when you you were no, Dan was going
to finish that sentence, but but I think they he
didn't want to turn down the honor of being asked
sure for that position. And then now that he's in it,
he realizes to your point, how much time away from
the family and different things. He's like, he actually might

(26:41):
have more of an impact doing the show.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Yeah, there is, honestly, which is sad, you know, because
there's people in a position now that can run with it.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
No, it goes back much much smaller. And I saw
Finebaum dealing with this. According to what he said too
is this and I remember Rush Limbaugh, who had a
much bigger platform than any of us. Uh And as
far as radio is concerned, you know, he was talking
about what people asked him all the time why he
did not go and work with various administrations, and he said,

(27:13):
because I can do more here. If I go and
take one of those roles, it'll be it'll be less
impactful than this actual show. And you know, and and
some of those things back in the fine Bomb said
he dealt with it too. And you know, I was
honored to be asked one time about running for governor.
First of all, I don't think I could win. But secondly,

(27:34):
I had zero interest in that because I'm like, that's
almost like a step down as far as influence, you know,
I mean being able to have platforms that we have.
You know, I thought to myself, the things that that
I think we're all called to and you got to
you gotta balance it right. You got to entertain and
earn the right to talk about the things that you

(27:55):
know are are really important. And we've seen so much
of that. And when you look at everything, and I
think Bongeno probably just did you go, am I really
having more impact by being a politician than I could
have being a citizen with a media platform heard by
millions of people, which one really can make the most

(28:18):
change because a lot of times you get to Washington
you find out this is even at the state level,
politics is a world of compromise. We don't have to compromise,
you know. And you know, sometimes you got to be
willing to take some heat, you know, from you know,
your your partners, and you know advertising, and we've had

(28:38):
our share of that. But that's that's different than you know,
I've got the political party I represent in here, you know,
banging on me saying I better get in line, or
the other political parties saying if you want this, you
got to give us that. You don't feel good about that,
but in order to get this, you gave in on that.
And so and it's a slow process of change. So

(29:02):
I can see where being in the position he was in,
I certainly can see the other people I mentioned, uh
and and we feel the same that there there's more
impact doing this than running for office. And I'm not
those that are convicted to run for office and and
do that, man, thank you for doing it. You know,

(29:23):
hopefully you can get in there and make change. And
if that's your call, you should certainly do it. And
we do need more good people to run for office.
But if you're fortunate enough to have the kind of
platform that Bonngeno had, that Limball had, fine bam has
we have? Really, going into politics is almost an influenced
step down.

Speaker 4 (29:45):
And freedom step down, pay step down.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
At least it should be now you know it is.
It's usually I mean, they get paid pretty well, but
usually you know you're limited. It is a pay cut too.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
So unless you're corrupt, then you can yeah, no, no, no,
extremely well.

Speaker 5 (30:02):
Yeah, so you get some stock device from Pelosi, y,
I say, somewhere ansty Pelosi said, pay cut?

Speaker 1 (30:07):
What are you talking about? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (30:10):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (30:11):
What do you mean? How much do I know how
to work? This day? You said you had something you
wanted to show us.

Speaker 4 (30:21):
Yes, well, you know how speedy will play a sound
and be like, hey, guess what this is?

Speaker 1 (30:26):
What this is? I like it?

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Well, I've got I've got a clip that to guess. Yes,
while so echoey in my head. By the way, I'm
so sorry.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
You're doing good.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
You don't sound weird. You're okay? All right, So y'all
you can tell you've had to speak before, being not
sure of yourself.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
Yeah, okay, all right, y'all y'all tell me if you
can tell me what you think this is.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Okay, it's definitely someone attempting to be an owl. Yes,
I heard Greg do that for you. Who could.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
Okay, Okay, it's an owl competition, guys.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
It's exactly right. You're it nailed it. He did so
last night my brother who went in my stead hunting
last weekend, after I had a little bit of a
cry baby fest on the air.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
I don't have to keep bringing that up.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
I sent my brother to go hunting instead. I told
him to wear like a pedophile man bun wig. Did
he do that the whole time? So it was like
I was there, but like a cooler, taller version of
me that he was mad at everybody.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Okay, now now he rolled his eyes and said, what's
going on with Chris?

Speaker 4 (31:41):
Yeah? I know.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
I think he was trying to get a better spot
to hunt in though. Yeah it worked out, So there
you go quick. I'm not saying things have changed around here,
but I almost said something about his wrinkled hirt earlier,
and I let it go.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
Oh thank you, No, that's fine, I'm fine.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
You've made change.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
You look fabulous.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
I've been thinking back on it and I think I
was running on three hours of sleep over three days.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
That's not good. No, I want to tell you that,
not only does your shirt look good, you for some
reason look taller today you do trying and stronger.

Speaker 4 (32:11):
Thank you, got you got so kind of you. Also,
I didn't mention this either. Ezra's potty training right now,
and so that is I'm I'm elbow deep in it
right now.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
What about that point where you go, they're never going
to get it?

Speaker 7 (32:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (32:24):
Never Ever, how many I've thrown away more underwear in
the last two weeks. You just throw it away like
that's that looks like it's been in a car accident, right,
and then and then went mudding.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
Hey, by the way, so bad at wiping. He's so
bad at wiping. I'm sorry to get into this. That's
the wrong direction. And now it's yesterday. I'm so sorry.
I'm on what is happening yesterday? Accident on the and
then and I get him on the seat, and then
that's a nightmare. What do you do? Are you? Did
you get did you find a round crayon? What happened

(33:01):
here on this on this toilet? My god? So Ben
then bath right, and then I get him in the bath,
clean him up, and then he's like, I have to
go again. I put him back on the seat and
then it happened again. That was yesterday. That was five
minutes before my brother picked me up and we went
to last night at the Lyric Theater. Okay, last night
at the Lyric Theater, you guys.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Thought you were telling your son to make an owl
sound when he needed to go body.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
That's the signal.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
By the way, Greg sounds better than these people. I
think I could have won.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Greg, you would have been a finalist at least because
last night at the Lyric Theater Meat Eater, you guys
are familiar.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Steven, I have an interesting thing to say about this event,
but I will let you show. Yes.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
I love his show Love. There's a few podcasts if
there's that I really enjoy.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Well.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Meat Eater did a live show at the Lyric Theater
last night and at one point they said, hey, if
you feel like you can do an owl call, stand up,
and so you have to. You probably had fifteen twenty
dudes in the audience stand up and they won through
everybody and did their owl call. And Greg, I really

(34:15):
do think you could have won. I wanted to stand
up so bad and just go who cooks for you?

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Oh? Yeah, I tried that.

Speaker 4 (34:23):
But yeah, there was some good calls last night.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
Oh thank laugh Yeah, okay to them that I wish.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
You would have done that, But y'all it's funny that
went on. That went on for longer than you.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
Might do it. Yeah, I wish you to do it.

Speaker 2 (34:45):
I keep doing that.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
I want to ask you twenty people did I want
to ask you? Yeah, I want to ask you a
question about this. By the way, first of all, I
thought visually there stage will be more stunting. Let me
say this, because that's a huge show. You remember when
we did the twenty year we never been Nowhere tour, Yes,
the twentieth youe or of the Rick and Bubba Show,
And we we got to the point where we said,
wouldn't it be cool to do something in theaters? And

(35:07):
we were like, yeah, a live event. Yeah, And then
there was an uncomfortable moment I think it came from you, Greg,
when you said, well, what will it be? What are
we actually going to do? Yeah, And it kind of
stunned us for a minute. We were like, well, we
just like the idea of it, but what what's going
to be? Like you come, what what happens? Are we
eating something on stage?

Speaker 6 (35:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Juggling when we start trying to figure out what do
we actually do? And we did put together what I
think what turned out to be, and we massaged it
along the way. You know, I thought, I thought we
pulled it off. It seems like if you're the meat
Eater live stage production, you have the same problem. What
what what was the show? Okay?

Speaker 4 (35:47):
Luke and I thought they eat anything. Luke and I
thought they were actually going to record a podcast, like
on the way there, I was like, so what are
we getting into? Because my brother bought the tickets for
my fortieth birthday? Thank you, Luke love I love you
like a brother right, oh wait you are my brother?

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Right yes?

Speaker 4 (36:02):
And so we actually thought they were gonna sit around
with Mike's and we get in the room and they're like,
all right, there's no broadcast Mike's here. But it was
so it was just a live show. The guys told
some hunting stories. Okay, they had an al competition that
they had a blow dart competition that was fun. And
then at nine twenty five or nine twenty or so.
My brother and I were like, wow, we have to

(36:23):
wake up early. So actually that's what I saw was
some hunting stories, ol competition, blowgun competitiont early we were
those Did you.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Feel like, I know you got your ticket as a gift?
Did Luke fell out what he paid for the ticket?
It was worth it.

Speaker 4 (36:36):
He was actually the one that was like, brother, you
ready to go. He's a tool He's a tool salesman.
So he left the Gulf of America yesterday morning at
like five in the morning. He drives out around the
South selling huge tools for rigid and so he was tired.
And I was like, brother, if you're good, I'm good.

Speaker 7 (36:57):
I didn't.

Speaker 4 (36:57):
I don't want to be that guy.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
You don't want to have to be there.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
You know, you don't want to make everybody cater their
lives to your early early morning schedule. But it was fun.
It was super cool and uh and that was actually
my first time in the lyric. I'd never had a
chance to go see a show. So it's a beautiful theater,
really fun and uh, and you know it, it gave
me some ideas too.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
May have may have some big announcements with us come
out next year. Come on, just leave it leaving it
there right there.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
But I'm picking up what you're dropping, fellow.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
Okay, so that's you're talking to.

Speaker 2 (37:33):
Did did you leave underwhelmed? I know?

Speaker 4 (37:36):
Well they were admittedly rusty, Like they said, we are rusty.
They said that on they it was their first show
of the whole tour and so they it was a
little bit rusty.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
I'm going to sell you something interesting about that tour. Okay,
when we come back.

Speaker 4 (37:54):
Okay, I saw a familiar face up there.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Well, let me tell you something was very interesting. And
I know we've all had the happened to us, and
it was because when Luke told me you were going,
I said, let me tell you something interesting about this.
We'll be right back.

Speaker 6 (38:09):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
So adder you you went last night? Let me see
if I have this right, the very popular podcast and
TV show, right meat either They had a live stage
show at the first stop was our home city of
Birmingham last night, Lyric Theater. You and Luke went there.
That was your birthday present from him, your brother, Luke,

(38:37):
and you said you didn't think anybody could beat Greg.

Speaker 7 (38:40):
Greg.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
Let's hear your call in the Isle. It's a good call. Yeah,
there it is. Yeah, that's good.

Speaker 4 (38:55):
So I noticed nobody went this thing. They didn't do
any handstaff. They didn't do any handstaff. Everybody was straight
up and I'm like, gods, they.

Speaker 5 (39:05):
Yeah, I wish I could video you doing that like that.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
So it was a good it was. It was a
good experience.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
It was a good experience. It was funny. We're we're
pulling into downtown Birmingham and looking for a parking spot
and we see guys in you know, hunting boots, camo
and baseball you know, hunting baseball hats or whatever, and
I'm like, okay, we know where those.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
Guys are going.

Speaker 4 (39:28):
It's very obvious they're going to this show. So that
was funny seeing those people down there. But it was great, man,
we had a great time.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
It's the own version of all the metal shows you've
been to. You can see the crowd right, yes, you
know the metal show, so you know who's going to
the hunting and Fishing, Let's eat wild game show. Man.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
It was so funny. As they were doing the owl competition,
they ask people where they were from, and several guys
they didn't even say the name of the town. They
just go, I'm from Mississippi, you know, cause like if
I say the name of the town, you're not even
gonna You're not gonna know the name of the town, Mississippi.
Where are you from, Kentucky? That's all they said, which
was I thought that was fantastic, absolutely assault of the

(40:06):
earth people last night. It was just fun being in
a room full of people like that that just like
like being outdoors.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
Yeah, you know what's good about America.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
Yes, it was really fun.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
All Right, I'm getting texts and everything that I said
we'd be about July fifth. I met, Well, we're taking
a long break. We want we need some breast down
January fifth. All right, So I'm gonna give you a
little factoid about last night that you didn't know. Okay,
it's a factoid, let's hear it. It was you know,
we've all told y'all about our ongoing friendship with Dan Moultrie.

(40:37):
Oh and and we love Dan legend think the world
of Dan. Oh great, Dan's been good to our families,
and it's got a heart of gold. Took us on
some good hunting trip. But there's a little something called
Dan Andes And this is trying to figure out what
Dan's move is and everything, because there's always a move,
there's something, there's something danningistic about it. Okay, So it's

(41:01):
been obvious to a lot of you that he has
not been on this year. That's you know, that's all
between salespeople and and uh and whoever Dan is working
for at the time and all that, and then we
have our personal relationship. Yeah. So Dan calls and you know,
I'm getting you know, it's it's a very danniistic call,

(41:22):
and we're catching up, and you know, he said, hey,
I got a guy, I got idea about what we
need to do about trying to get something going for
next year. Okay, all right, And he said you don't
you familar with the meat Eater. I said, yes, yes, Sam,
you know they're going to do a live show and
he said it was on the nineteenth of December. He
had the date wrong. And he said, uh, te what

(41:43):
I want you to be part of that show? I said, really, okay, wow,
it's it's something. It's sold out. I mean it's sold
out quick. Okay, I'm gonna bring you up on stage.
I want you to be part of the panel. That
great that sounds good, and that that way, I think
I'd be a good way for us to start to
start the relationship with the new show. And uh and man, okay,
it sounds good. I never heard from Dan again, sounds good.

(42:06):
I never. I never heard from Dan again.

Speaker 7 (42:09):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
And I reached out to Dan about you must about
a week ago and he was in Texas, honting. Oh yeah, busy,
and he said, well, I'll call you back. I'm helping
these guys with the deer and I'm like, I left
on the message. Hey, what about this meet Eater thing?
It's like coming up? I mean, am I still part
of this? Did did that ever happen? Still to this moment,

(42:32):
I haven't heard from that.

Speaker 4 (42:35):
So you weren't part of it.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
I say, I don't think I was not part of it.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
You left early?

Speaker 7 (42:40):
Now?

Speaker 1 (42:40):
Yeah? The encore, well, you know what, you know what
you did when it came out. You might have noticed
my eyes are a little puffy today. And I'll tell
you why I was the final No, I never And
when I hear that, and then I understand. Dan got
up there and started talking about his days with us
in the past. Yes, it was he never mentions, I mean, hey,

(43:02):
I was gonna bring birds here. Look if if if
he talked to the people, because you know, Dan thinks
he can, you know, command anything in the outdoor world
and everybody does it. He probably went in brought it
up and he got shot down. He just he didn't
want to tell me. He let me know it was
on my calendar. Of course it was on the nine tail.

Speaker 5 (43:20):
You probably thought it was a really good idea. And
then he just got busy and and was like, well
if I don't, if I don't confirm it, he'll know
it not.

Speaker 1 (43:27):
I got I got dynamized, you did, I got danaized.
This is classic dannees. I mean, this was dynonistic moves.

Speaker 4 (43:35):
Funny funny note about that I am on the aisle
and so if anybody has to get out of our row,
I just stood up and just stood in the aisle
rather than like pulling your knees to the side. Absolutely,

(43:56):
what do we in the NBA celebrate in the NBA?
I want Yeah, So I stood up in the aisle
to let someone out. At that exact moment that I
am standing up in the aisle letting somebody out, Dan
Moultrie goes, now, who do you all remember when I

(44:18):
would do trivia on the Rick and Bubba Show. Who
do you all remember that? And so the house lights
come up and I'm standing up, and so I just
raised my hand. Yeah, I remember that I was standing
there when he did it was he didn't see you,
He didn't see me. He didn't I don't think he
saw me. Big room, lots of people. But it's just
funny in that moment, I am standing up and the
lights hit me, and I'm like, yeah, I remember that?

Speaker 1 (44:40):
Was there?

Speaker 7 (44:40):
Ever?

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Did you ever see an empty chair up there? It
was awkwardly.

Speaker 4 (44:43):
Empty, and there was one empty chair up there. I
was wondering.

Speaker 1 (44:47):
Did Dan looking on his face like I forgot to
call Rick.

Speaker 4 (44:51):
Right after he said it, he was like, oh, speaking
of which, I got to make a phone call right on.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
His mentioning of the Rick and Bubba Show. Make him
remember that he called Rick his buddy. He invited me
to be part of the show and never called me back.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
He didn't mention that.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
It was like high school all over again.

Speaker 4 (45:09):
Yeah, he didn't mention it anymore.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
That's such a damnonistic movie. That's classic. I'm not even
bothered by it because it's so damn sure. Plus we
were hunting. We were hunting. Sure, I had a rough day.

Speaker 2 (45:28):
We weren't meat eaters.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
That I don't I don't know why. I don't know
what a version the deer had to be yesterday. But
the deer hated my guts. What you just say?

Speaker 5 (45:38):
You he was at the meat eater thing about about
harvesting something and eating it.

and he wishes he's a part of it. I thought

(48:30):
I was part of it. I mean, Adler and his
brother were there. They were all excited. What I'm gonna
do because I know he's not gonna answer. If he does,
it'll be even funnier. I'm gonna I'm gonna leave a
message that I got Luke and Adler tickets and they
were excited about seeing me. And I came around the
back stage and couldn't get in. This is so all right,
Greg showing me how to do this right.

Speaker 5 (48:51):
It's weird when I have to say that about something
radio that's just getting uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
Now, I feel like you should be fish uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
I got to find his huh, oh, you need his number.
I got his number. I mean, I mean, now realize
it's you know, I thought I was special.

Speaker 4 (49:07):
And to the text of that, asked if Clay Newcombe
was there from the Meat Eater Crew last night at
the Lyric. Yes, he was, and he's he's a.

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Very funny he's a cool guy. Yeah, cool or funny
or both.

Speaker 4 (49:17):
He hunts on a mule that is funny.

Speaker 1 (49:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:20):
Okay, he's out there.

Speaker 5 (49:21):
You got it, Rick, Okay, that's not that hard. Okay,
so you're really calling him? Yeah, I'm calling my goodness, believe.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
Please don't answer. Please don't as please please answer, please answer,
please answer, please answer, Please don't answer. You don't be
like that.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
I'm getting uncomfortable.

Speaker 5 (49:43):
I know you're getting fun and I was all big
and bad about it.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
It's real. Now let's do it. What No, don't do it?

Speaker 7 (49:59):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Yeah, she's right. Hey, Dan, this is Rick. Uh. We're
on the air, Speedy, Greg and Adler here. I heard
about the Mediator show last night. That's a little awkward.
I remember you talked to me and told me I
was gonna be on the panel there at the live show,
and I got Adler for his birthday and his brother
Luke tickets. They came. They were excited, and I came

(50:23):
to backstage door and I was trying to get in
and nobody would let me in. Did y'all have an
empty chair for me in there? I just sounded like
it was a great show and I had some great
hunting stories I was gonna tell. So Dan, all right, I.

Speaker 4 (50:39):
Didn't know about this thing.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
We's Steven all about it. I remember we talked about it. Man,
we were we were talking. We were getting so excited
about it, and uh then I never never heard from
you again. So I thought, well, I just need to
be a man and get there. So I was outside
knocking the door. So if you heard from security, that
was me.

Speaker 7 (51:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
So hey, Dan called me back. Dan, I don't need
to hunt or anything like that. I just need talk
to you, Sank. Thanks buy.

Speaker 4 (51:16):
It's a long voicemail.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
Mm hm, well that's I'm sure he'll come me right back.

Speaker 4 (51:22):
I had nothing to do with that, Dan, I didn't
know about this whole thing.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
That's awkward, now, isn't it it is? Does it feel
you should have been me hearing you and your Luke
talking about it? Yucking it up right, Yeah, yeah, all excited.

Speaker 4 (51:33):
You had lots of chairs on stage, they did have.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
What was there an empty one that was that everybody
kept looking at. Yeah except for Dan. Yeah yeah. Dan
kept going, I feel like I'm forgetting something right, right?
You ever get that feeling? Now, let me tell you. Look,
let me tell you what happened. Y'all know what happened.
We've all been there. Now, where are you got your buddy?
And you're trying and include him in something? You you
think you're just gonna tell the group that you have
this great idea and they're all gonna go along with it.

(51:56):
And you bring up this idea and they're like, we
don't want him here. What is he? We're meat eaters.

Speaker 4 (52:01):
We don't know him.

Speaker 1 (52:02):
Yeah, we don't know him. Our show so much bigger
than them, we don't need him. And and Dan's like,
and he don't want to call back and to say
that I got it. Of course, the little heads up
would have been fine taking off the calendar I had.
I had an upcoming events. So yeah, that's how funny

(52:23):
is that text right there? If I only knew? But anyway,
so look I got Dyan andized and it's not the
first time.

Speaker 5 (52:32):
I honestly, he's such a great person. It's nothing personal.
He got caught up in a great idea and then
when it got walked out.

Speaker 1 (52:39):
He was like, well, we really don't have a room
for him.

Speaker 5 (52:42):
Yeah, and then he got busy, and then before you
knew it was night up, he was standing on stage.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
But you know that I got away from me.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
Can I tell you the super awkward part about that
is as if we're not there already. It's so many times.
Let me tell you there's a little bit of this
bit I heard from Jerry Seinfeld one time when I
saw him. I didn't get those tickets through Dan. But
and I was supposed to have been in that show too. Yeah.
I was supposed to be opening that according to Dan,

(53:09):
but uh no, the uh but it was He said
that you we lament sometimes over things that we that
that you you think you should invite somebody to or
you want and he said, what you don't realize is
that person would love to be let out of it. Yeah,
you know what I mean? He said, like, like you
worry about who you send the wedding invitations to other

(53:31):
than your closest family. There's people secretly hoping they don't
get that invitation because they don't want to come anyway,
you know, And he goes and a lot of times
you think they're just having this thrilling day. They go
the mailbox, they see it, and he jes, there goes
a Saturday, you know, and uh and the especially dear
football season. But the so honestly, this was something. Now

(53:55):
I'm gonna certainly not let that off the hook about
it because now I've got him down. Uh. But I
would have probably been relieved to hear, hey, you know what,
that didn't work out, because you know, did I really
want to be there on a weeknight? Not really, you know.
But now, if it had been good for the show,
which I think it probably could have been, that's a
that's a you would have.

Speaker 5 (54:16):
Enjoyed your time there. But when you got home really
late and the next morning you've.

Speaker 1 (54:20):
Been like, like you and I hunted yesterday because I
thought this was on the nineteenth, because that's what Dan
told me. And when when I told Luke it was
the nineteenth, he had that look in his face like
I nearly messed him up. He was like, really that,
I don't think it's the nineteenth. That's what Dan told me.
What hunting yesterday and getting home and going to bed.
I really enjoyed that more. But it's still funny when

(54:43):
I heard Adler talking about him and Luke going there
and me, but to say, you know, I was supposed
to be there apparently on the panel. Did you felt
Do you think I could have added to it?

Speaker 4 (54:51):
Yeah? You could have helped move it along a little
bit faster.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
Oh gosh, they would have been done in the first show.
They would have been done in half the time.

Speaker 5 (54:58):
Oh may American Village good night before before long you
were running.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
I set a record by the way, at the American
Village for their fireworks. Just travel again. By the way,
big two fifty next year, I know, got to do
two nights Quensentinian two nights next year. Oh ye, try
to rush those. Unlike Dan, they invited me and actually
kept that invitation. So so we'll uh well yeah, and
you know what, I probably just could fig forget all

(55:26):
about this if he just take me back to Hunting, Texas. Yeah,
out of clear. Yeah, then I'll just be done with it.
You know, I'm gonna have to take the artist Roger
Stewart and I have not seen him lately, but I've
got to put him on the list of people that
maybe I don't know. Is he now getting sad when

(55:51):
he's performing? Is he still can he still do well?
I haven't seen any footage. Yeah, I know, goodness, I
know you never went back to Rochester at once he
started playing the American standards. Yeah, I don't want to
hear that. You want to heart you were you were
out on that. But he's very we can unlike Moultrie,
I think we can find his age. He's got to
be mid seventies. Rod Stewart, oh yeah, easily, mid seventies,

(56:17):
eighty two? Are you while you're going for eighties? I
think you you? I just saw Paul McCartney at eighty three.

Speaker 4 (56:24):
Oh yeah maybe so.

Speaker 1 (56:26):
Roger's eighty. So Rod Stewart is eighty.

Speaker 4 (56:30):
And in January he'll be eighty one.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
Okay wow. So and he's still performing. This is in Athens.
We're talking about Athens, not Athens, Georgia. Are we grea
are Greece grease? Yeah? So he's he's in Athens, Georgia
and he's going and watch this. This is going to
make you uncomfortable. It is he calls out a fan
that he claims is ruining the show for everybody in

(56:53):
the in the middle of a song.

Speaker 4 (56:55):
It is but a bleep here.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
Okay, it gets a little spicy. Okay, here we go.

Speaker 4 (57:03):
He's yelling. Now he's gonna yell on Mike. Guys putting
out the spot.

Speaker 1 (57:17):
It's not her.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
Good night, guys, now back to it.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
That's off where you think I'm sick. Even the band
was just so so he's the soccer ball.

Speaker 5 (57:41):
Okay, could you go back out to the wide shot
because it's it's from the upper upper deck or something.
So I'm trying to see if somewhere on the front
row somebody's holding up a sign. Yes, and he's blocking
the that that person's blocking the view for everybody behind him,
and he's he's.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
Had enough, okay show.

Speaker 5 (57:58):
Yeah, and he's like, you are literally just in everybody's way.

Speaker 1 (58:03):
I want to know what the sign say.

Speaker 5 (58:04):
I do too. I wish I could see. I didn't
see a huge sign, did y'all.

Speaker 4 (58:08):
What he was saying is all that person is doing
is holding up a sign. They're not hurting anybody.

Speaker 5 (58:13):
Oh so maybe somebody was complaining or something. Yeah, Okay,
so he tells the guy. You know, he puts it
up there. You can you know, we get the words, yeah,
but they don't.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
I do see something.

Speaker 1 (58:24):
Okay, what are you saying? Okay, so they got a
fight about the signs right here? Yeah, speed, he's pointing
the pointer right now.

Speaker 5 (58:33):
All right, your focus right in this area right here.

Speaker 1 (58:36):
Okay, somebody see that. They're talking to somebody. They're talking
to that person right there, h here.

Speaker 4 (58:42):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
It's like they're trying to talk them down or something.

Speaker 5 (58:47):
So that's a sign there this person.

Speaker 1 (58:50):
Go here, we go.

Speaker 2 (58:53):
Here's the alteration there and.

Speaker 5 (58:55):
It looks like to me they put their hand on
a guy security like to get him out.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
Of the way, and he didn't like that. You're pulling
off the start.

Speaker 4 (59:07):
It's not.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Okay. Look, the band's like, what do you will make
up your mind? From the top or where we left off?
Which one?

Speaker 4 (59:18):
The drummer had just saved the day.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
And the drummer had to.

Speaker 4 (59:22):
Saved the day.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
But you have to admit, but he gave them two options.
You're like, no, you got a big one. From the
top or where we left off? Okay, which one? Right?
And then the drummer just said where we left off.
Let's go Yeah, yeah, that's oh. I see. So this
guy's being a jerk about her sign and Rochester said,
she's not hurting anybody, she's just holding up a sign.

(59:45):
He just kept you running your root in the show
for everybody. We don't need you here. You're out soccer
ball for her. I seen him. He comes out and
kicks him in the audience. I've seen him. Well, yeah,
we've talked about this, you've seen him. Yeah, a long
time ago. Did we go together? Were there? We did? Yeah,
when he restarted the song. Yeah, he comes out after.

(01:00:06):
And I think we told this before years ago, but
Greg and I were there with their wives to see
Rod Stewart and he was at that time, probably in
his fifties. Oh yeah, it's been a while. And what
was it that long ago he was in this or
twenty years ago, fifties or sixties. And so they do
the big build up to Maggie May. I mean they
go through that whole intro and then it's clip clip

(01:00:29):
wake up, and as soon as it's supposed to be
that the mic does not work, so so we do
not we can't hear Rod Stewart, And I mean they
set up that beautiful intro, and he just stopped and said, hey, no, no,
we cannot start to show that way. And he makes
them give him a new mic and go all the
way back to the top and started again. I mean

(01:00:50):
they literally started the show over. So he's got kind
of reputation for if he didn't like the way something's going,
he should. I guess you get to start. Not only
are you Rod Stewart, but you're at that age you
just don't care. Now, let's just start over. Yeah, And
and from what I could tell there, he doesn't look
like he would make you uncomfortable right now. I've seen
some videos that people put out where he doesn't move

(01:01:12):
all that well. But he wasn't like a dancer, so
he'd run around, Yeah he would. Yeah. So I saw
the Unplugged and of course it was shot in the eighties.
I think, yeah, it's good, really good.

Speaker 4 (01:01:26):
What's your favorite Rod Stewart song? I know Gregg's.

Speaker 1 (01:01:33):
Favorite. I absolutely love. I was only joking. I love
that song. Yeah, there's so many good ones, of course
with the Faces, but stay with Me and the Faces
is good. That's a good one.

Speaker 5 (01:01:51):
And well, I didn't realize it's just yeah, after.

Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
Another really good and you're in my heart is good.
I love that whole little run right there. Yeah, that that,
but you know that now you get into the do
you think I'm sexy? And although not, I don't really
it's a disco. I don't really like that. But Greg
loves passion. He does. Passion is not a bad.

Speaker 4 (01:02:13):
Yeah, I didn't know he did. Have you ever seen
the rain?

Speaker 1 (01:02:16):
I did not either.

Speaker 4 (01:02:18):
First cut is the deepest. That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
That's a great one for He loves young turks. Yeah,
young turk is what they're doing right there. It's not bad. Yeah,
it's not a bad.

Speaker 4 (01:02:27):
I thought that was.

Speaker 1 (01:02:28):

Speaker 7 (01:09:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
Great, should know this. You're on the staff.

Speaker 4 (01:09:31):
You should know this.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
You're and you know what else? I remember how to
get to work? Okay, on my own, I came on
without even asking. All right, legang, what show was I
appearing on? Logan?

Speaker 7 (01:09:50):
I will say, due Police Academy, and I have no idea.

Speaker 1 (01:09:53):
I missed that, googled it.

Speaker 4 (01:09:55):
I even put it in the Highlight Reach logo.

Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
That's three hundred bucks. Oh my goodness, touch man. Look
at the text Nation, all all of them wealthy. Oh,
I know every one of them, A lot of them
from Virginia. I knew that. See they all know it.
Look I mean, I mean you know it.

Speaker 5 (01:10:11):
Boy, there's been a lot of people that's won on
text today today.

Speaker 1 (01:10:16):
I just know we've only had one winter today. So
that was the correct answer is seven hundred, seven hundred clubs.
I knew it, seven hundred clubs. Two things just happened
in that second. That makes me wonder about y'all's minds.

(01:10:37):
We're running up, going to break, and then all of
a sudden great as if he's the little kid in
the class that knows the answer show Virginia. Ya, I
know what it was like. Everybody was surprised, I hope.
So you were what city? State? Huh? What city and state? Norfolk, Virginia.
Oh nice.

Speaker 2 (01:10:56):
I just heard him saying, I'm gonna give you a sticker.

Speaker 1 (01:10:59):
All right, we'll be back. So I saw this story
brewing yesterday, and I thought to myself, how does this work?
So we have a woman who got arrested yesterday forty

(01:11:20):
years after abducting a child. Now, our story, our story
doesn't say this, And maybe I misread yesterday when I
saw it that she abducted her own child or somebody
else's child. She abducted her own three year old daughters,
and she abducted him from the husband that had custody problem.

Speaker 4 (01:11:41):
Yes, yeah, yeah, as a non custodial parent.

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
And she she went and said, I'm gonna have my kid.
Nobody's gonna take the kid from me. And she pulled
it off for forty years.

Speaker 4 (01:11:50):
Ran off to Florida. Yeah, and forty years, got remarried
and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
And you're talking about awkward.

Speaker 5 (01:11:57):
I think I saw it was she just like out
with her dog, walked a dog and all of a sudden,
here they are all right, So wait a minute, So
that means the child is forty three years old.

Speaker 1 (01:12:05):
Yes, yes, good maath Rick and I've become like y'all.
But but no, it just hit me. So I mean,
I mean, I understand people need to pay and and
this happened with some kind of TV show or something
where unsolved crimes or something, and it kind of somebody said, hey,
I think I know where this woman is.

Speaker 4 (01:12:26):
There is a tip.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
Yeah, yeah, maybe I'm giving away this story. I'm sorry.

Speaker 5 (01:12:29):
No, it's setting it up because even the lady with
her thinks that this is all made up, Like, no,
y'all made a mistake. And what she doesn't realize is
this lady you just changed her identity, her everything and
has just lived a double life.

Speaker 1 (01:12:42):
By the way, do you give her credit for pulling
it off? Because I know she's going to jail now,
but forty years is a pretty good run. Raise your kids,
she got to raise your kid all the way to adulthood,
probably has grandkids.

Speaker 4 (01:12:53):
Yeah, she is walking her dog, like you guys said.
Her friend is going to make a joke about the police,
and she's going to say like, ha ha, they're coming
to get you sharing. Her name's not sharing, right, which
is what adds a crazier level to it. She's living
as Sharon for forty years.

Speaker 1 (01:13:10):
Imagine being her friend not knowing it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:12):
So this video has the arrest and then it actually
has the the father, the biological father, and the daughter
talking and meeting each other.

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
Wow, how are you doing with Sharon? Pretty good? She's
nervous and terran. Oh, you're coming for you, Sharon. We're
doing it. Well, We're here for you, ma'am. Oh boy,
definitely here for you. Okay, buddy, look at her friend?

Speaker 8 (01:13:42):
Whoa why you know why?

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
We're waiting on the tact that we get here, but
we have with all the information that we do have,
you have a want for your arrest man, we're not.

Speaker 6 (01:14:03):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (01:14:03):
Go ahead and go home.

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
Now, guys, I don't understand.

Speaker 6 (01:14:13):
Tough hand.

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
She's guy's her friend. Is she admitting it yet?

Speaker 4 (01:14:20):
I didn't do anything?

Speaker 1 (01:14:21):
Okay, yes you did, you did, and.

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
I don't know anything.

Speaker 7 (01:14:27):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (01:14:27):
So now now we're cutting to the father, the daughter
and the ant. Can I point out the obviously the
ant looks so much like her sister. That when I
when I looked, I thought to myself, well, there she is.
They've all worked on the couch.

Speaker 4 (01:14:42):
Yes, so they are on the couch looking at pictures
and they're gonna mention exactly that Rick.

Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
These are great.

Speaker 4 (01:14:50):
That's hers, a little girl.

Speaker 1 (01:14:52):
They're sitting there looking at pictures.

Speaker 7 (01:14:54):
In high school.

Speaker 3 (01:14:57):
She's so beautiful to you, look so much alike.

Speaker 5 (01:14:59):
I've seen pictures and I'm just like.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
That one.

Speaker 5 (01:15:03):
Thenoon and get to put my arms back around my daughter.

Speaker 8 (01:15:07):
A crime Stoppers tip led to Deborah's was by the
Marion County Sheriff's office and this family reunion with Michelle
and her father. But neighbors who knew Deborah Sharon say
she was happily married and always pleasant. They think there
could be more to the story here.

Speaker 1 (01:15:21):
Unless you're in their shoes, should never know.

Speaker 8 (01:15:24):
We tried to ask Deborah about her family dynamics back
in nineteen.

Speaker 4 (01:15:28):
Eighty three Guys eight.

Speaker 5 (01:15:30):
Her news husband told.

Speaker 8 (01:15:32):
Us their attorney's advice them not to talk about the case.

Speaker 6 (01:15:36):
In court.

Speaker 4 (01:15:38):
It's not.

Speaker 2 (01:15:40):
It's not over.

Speaker 1 (01:15:43):
Like that's bad. Ain't bad. And he looked like somebody, Okay.

Speaker 5 (01:15:48):
I can ask a question here this story, don't I
want to quickly get her aside.

Speaker 4 (01:15:52):
Crazy story.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
Crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:15:55):
So they say that she was happily married right now,
but then.

Speaker 1 (01:16:00):
She took off. No, they're talking about she's happily married
right now. Right. But but but the father did he
even know? I mean, I guess I'm confused?

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
Is why did she run off?

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
They never tell us why she lose custody. She did
lose custody. That's that's why she's in trouble.

Speaker 5 (01:16:15):
Okay, So they so and and and mother they get
a divorce or they're splitting up, and he's going to
get custody of the child.

Speaker 1 (01:16:22):
So she disappeared, I think so, Yes, and take a baby.

Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
Yes, they doesn't say that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
Yes, and this story, well, you wouldn't be in trouble
if you took your own kid and you had legal
rights to her.

Speaker 7 (01:16:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
When you're in trouble is when you take a kid,
you lost the legal custody to the daddy, and the
daddy now doesn't have the child for forty years.

Speaker 4 (01:16:40):
Crazy. Yeah, Oh, they're coming to get you sharing that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
Part, sweedy, How did you even get through that? No,
she was she wouldn't just kind of yut she was
going to get hitting her. I know, are they coming
for you? Share it? And then the cops. The kid said,
a kid, it go home.

Speaker 5 (01:16:58):
We ain't kidding, Holy moldly got away?

Speaker 1 (01:17:01):
Was it for forty years?

Speaker 4 (01:17:02):
I guess there's no statute of limitations on this kind
of case.

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
Any legal minds out there can help us. I will
tell you that somebody getting wrested forty years after they
did something makes me crazy, uncomfortable. We'll be right back.

Speaker 6 (01:17:19):
This is the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
That story we just did.

Speaker 7 (01:17:31):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (01:17:32):
Yeah, that that one that there's so many parts left out?
How did you lose custody? What happened forty years? What
you know? You? Yes, I'd like to sit down and
ask them a bunch of questions. Yeah to This almost
needs to be a dateline or something where you sit

(01:17:52):
down and go, okay, I'm in or what is it
twenty twenty? Remember that one? Is that twenty twenty? Now
he's dateline? Maybe? I think he's. Everybody thought Sharing was
a great neighbor, always kind and understanding, but what they
discovered next would change the neighborhood forever. You got just

(01:18:20):
a common day walking along with old friend Sharing, walking
the dog just like any other day until law enforcement
showed up and what they said next would change everything.
Thank you right, that's I gotta tell you. He does

(01:18:40):
his job. Well, yeah, he really does. He brings me in.
Those kind of shows are the kind of shows that
you'll never see me looking for. But if I end
up on that couch and all of a sudden one
pops up and I give it any amount of time,
it's like a fish that has bitten a lure. They
reeled me right in.

Speaker 5 (01:19:01):
You kind of want to interview a al too his last.

Speaker 1 (01:19:06):
Name, but.

Speaker 5 (01:19:09):
Ask him if he had any idea this lady what
she did.

Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
I doubt he did, but.

Speaker 5 (01:19:16):
It would just probably be confusing as to why they
never saw family and all that. The new husband and
just think about what this lady did. She just stole
the father's forty years of his life he could have
been spend.

Speaker 1 (01:19:30):
Well, I think that's what everybody's said about.

Speaker 5 (01:19:32):
And not only that, but the daughter. And I mean,
I know it's obvious. I'm just saying thinking about you
get caught up and oh man, how'd she.

Speaker 2 (01:19:39):
Pull it off? That's impressive.

Speaker 5 (01:19:40):
No, she stole the life for this, this this daughter
of hers that grown up to, grew up to be
a woman.

Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
They even know her father, right.

Speaker 4 (01:19:49):
The authorities contacted Michelle and they said, you are not
who you think you are. You are a missing person.
You are you are Michelle Marie.

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
Oh my goodness, can you imagine hearing those words? And
what was the name? What was the name that? What
would what's the name that mama changed it to? I
just say said, you're not how you think you are.
We don't really know, do we.

Speaker 4 (01:20:13):
Yeah, Michelle was raised by under a different name. Sorry here,
but the daughter is in a really tough spot because,
like you know, she was abducted, raised by her mom.
She is at this point. My intention is to support
them both, my actual mom and my actual dad as
we try to move through this and try to navigate

(01:20:35):
and help them both. Just wrap it up so they
can both heal, so we can all heal. Deborah was
arraigned on felony on a felony charge, a felony of
custodial interference. So I guess there's no statute of limitations
on custodial interference and she was released on bond. So
al Roker, I guess posted, so.

Speaker 1 (01:20:56):
What would husband not current husband past husband, the one
who was robbed of forty years Can he let this
go and say I don't want to press charges anymore,
or just does the or did the fads take it
and there's nothing you can do?

Speaker 4 (01:21:15):
Good question. They were both present at her arraignment. Okay,
so there's awkward saying very yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:21:21):
Yeah, I thought it was awkward that the sister was
showing her pictures of her mom right from the the
dad that had been robbed a forty years by. Yeah,
here's a good picture of your mom when she was younger.
Oh yeah, yeah, she's really good until she stole you
and took you from me for four decades. And did
her sister know about it, you know, the one that
sent her picture that's good. I just thought that was

(01:21:42):
a weird scene.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
Yeah, the whole thing is very weird.

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (01:21:49):
They're coming for you, sharing.

Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
And just goofing off people.

Speaker 1 (01:21:54):
Now give me things of what we're doing. Morrison boys.
Oh yeah, that never gets told. Sharon was hoping today
to be well rested, but instead she was arrested speedy.
I wish that was you. Somebody kept going, they messed

(01:22:15):
with you. Look, they're coming for you. That was the
worst part.

Speaker 2 (01:22:20):
Starting one more time.

Speaker 1 (01:22:21):
I'm going home. I want Speedy to watch that part
one more time.

Speaker 5 (01:22:24):
And I know the officers are being professional and they're
carrying out their duty, but I wonder if they get
uncomfortable some I know, like she kept going on her neighbor.
I know this is extremely Hey, we're serious. You think
it's funny, but your.

Speaker 1 (01:22:35):
Face law enforcement struggles with secondand embarrassment. Your whole life
is uncomfortable.

Speaker 4 (01:22:40):
Since now they kind of didn't They kind of did
her a favor as the arrested her by not blowing
up the whole thing and saying to the friend, hey,
this isn't you know They kind of said it looks
like that.

Speaker 1 (01:22:50):
I mean, they live. It's clear to me that she's
got a.

Speaker 4 (01:22:52):
Wig going nice neighborhood.

Speaker 5 (01:22:54):
Odd Do you think that this this lady knows what's
going on when they come up. She's in the window
for forty years the day trust her shoulders, Hey, trust.

Speaker 1 (01:23:04):
Me, she knows. Okay, you can kind of tell.

Speaker 5 (01:23:07):
She looks down at her little doll like something.

Speaker 1 (01:23:10):
Greg thought, at what point did she think she'd pulled
it off? Thirty years? Yeah, thirty she felt good.

Speaker 4 (01:23:16):
High school graduation, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
Yeah, how are you going? Pretty good? Oh? Here uncomfortable?

did as a little little neighbor was walking awast.

Speaker 1 (01:24:09):
She knows.
