Speaker 5 (04:43):

Speaker 1 (04:46):

We're sick of it, sick of it, and I want
you ton't care what I won't happy baby less.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
I would not I would not care did not last.
But than that, Sam I now so later in the program,
his first first visit to the Rick Burgess Show, and
that is what's eating Scott Garowski? Yep, I mean you
know when Garoski was like, look, I want part of
what we're doing now. I love being part of what
we did in the past. I have to be part

(05:14):
of the new thing. So what's eating Scott Garowski. I've
got a funny Hey Birds that goes with that today.
But Scott Garowski will be with us and we'll find
out what is eating him. Gene Hallman will be stopping by.
People are coming from all over the world for the
Indie series. The Alabama Indie five hundred is coming up
this weekend at beautiful Barber Motorsports Park. Welcome all of

(05:38):
you that may be in our beautiful state. So if
you want to know what's going on this weekend, or
maybe you're thinking I might still go, Halman will let
us know what is going on a little bit later
on in the program. So we did mention vox seats
are coming in. That means another Burgess Ball battle today,
so that'll be taking place. In the last battle we

(05:58):
had on Tuesday, it was a bit awkward because the
person who lost, I think really wanted to win. Yeah,
really really wanted to win. And then after they lost,
it's probably the person that's seen.

Speaker 7 (06:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
But anyway, the winner the winter, the winner won five
hundred bucks, so that the worse then he would have
spun that. That doesn't mean he would have spun it,
but it just adds insult. This is what's wrong with us?
So we could tell, try to listen. We could tell
that the young man was upset about the loss, and

(06:35):
then he goes the second level upset when the winner
gets five hundred dollars. But in nowhere did any of
us even remotely consider let's just not have him spend
as the loser to see what he would know. But
that's the rule. But it's the rule. And we did,
you know, toughing up America. And then Adler came in
and saved it like doctor Phil and tried to give
him a speech about I'm not sure what it was about.

(06:56):
I heard it. I don't even he got hung up
in a loop. Hey man, you know it happens when
you do sometime when you compete and you it doesn't
you know.

Speaker 8 (07:06):
That was when I got sick of hearing myself talk.
I just trailed off and the whole room watched it happen.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
It was in front of everybody. Everybody but one person
didn't hear.

Speaker 5 (07:15):
Your elbowing Greg and Speedy or just having a blast.

Speaker 6 (07:18):
Yeah, watching it happen like in the kid's face.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Is just stone. It got worse every time somebody tried it.
He didn't care about until I produced the Amazon fifty
dollars card. That's that turned it a little bit.

Speaker 6 (07:30):
Well, that's the first time you said that publicly. I think,
I'm sorry. That was nice of you.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Well in little consolation price, and I can't do that
every time. I just happened to have. It was a
nice gift that was given to me and I passed
it on. Yeah, so uh and it and he look,
I had to do something the poor kid, and Adler
only made it worse. I mean, you know what Adler
was like that person You cut yourself and you're concerned
about bacteria, and he makes sure it gets infected. Yeah, exactly,

(07:55):
what was what was your thought instead of maybe pulling
him to the side.

Speaker 8 (08:00):
Know what, it's like you torn down all the time.
So I was trying to build him up because I
know that would be torn down because man.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
It's okay because I mean, and.

Speaker 6 (08:13):
It's winning. It's win and learn, it's not win and
lose because.

Speaker 9 (08:17):
You have fun.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
You were here and you got to do you know,
and a lot of people want to be in the seats,
and you were here and you wanted to Fredick, you
were your mom and dad. A lot of people don't
have mom and dad. You know you're something like that
and they don't have maps, right, and they love you.
But I think the I think the best statement, listen.
The best statement, and this is my favorite statement on

(08:38):
these socially awkward moments is when we identified and I
think we were the only people who ever identified it,
and it happened there. It's one thing for the people
listening to give up on your monologue. It's even better
when the person giving the monologue gives up on it.
I can't get my way out here. I am now
giving up on what I'm saying. And then you don't
know what to do because you still put out sound.

(09:01):
But it doesn't make any sense now because you're just
kind now you're just kind of trailing off. He was
in that voice like I'm dropping some wisdom.

Speaker 6 (09:07):
I was in my wisdom voice. You won't even have that.
I don't even have a wisdom.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Boy, you were in the wisdom voice. It sounds like
it's a little different than most people's, but you got one.

Speaker 6 (09:16):
No was like, you know, man, you know man, I'm
a girl.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Man, I know her looking things I've had to work through.
You can do it. I still the key chain. Once
I learned from it, I.

Speaker 8 (09:27):
Wouldn't bring that up for no reason, no reason.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Greg, I learned my lessons. I don't steal anymore.

Speaker 6 (09:34):
We and learn, Greg.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
It's one of those things where the heart was in
the right place. He just had no no, no material
to go with. Right, We'll be right back.

Speaker 9 (09:44):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
So you've heard us talk about Patriot Mobile, you know
quite a bit. But the deal is, have you made
any moves because every time we were dealing with these
dilemmas on where our money goes, and hey, I don't
like this company. I don't like what they stand for.
I don't agree with that. But what am I supposed
to do? Well, as you know, because we've been talking

(10:12):
about this for years, that Patriot Mobile actually gives those
of us that are more conservative a real option now
again Patriot Mobile. It's wonderful that they share your values.

watching before the show started and listening to some of
the out of Sweet Home, Alabama Trump going to the

(11:59):
University of Outabama commenced by some good stuff and speaking,
and then somebody showed a minute ago what I was
concerned about. I was watching local news here on some
one of our TVs because we do the show from Alabama,
and watching the counter protest. Did you catch this bunch?

(12:21):
That's a pretty bunch, isn't it? Yeah? And see the
counter does everybody look that way? Everybody not not a
large crowd as you can imagine a healthy looking crowd either.
If you go to Alabama and you're gonna have a
counter Trump rally, you're you're gonna it's gonna be an
uphill climb. Speaking of climbing, putting up an impeached Trump

(12:41):
sign on on a playground, I think it's a playground
like climbing course.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
That's a really nice one way.

Speaker 8 (12:48):
Yeah, I got I gotta take ruby there.

Speaker 6 (12:52):
These people signs is funny.

Speaker 8 (12:53):
Look, you know it's bad when an Auburn woman is
here to defend the University of Alabama.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
That's good. That's the best side I saw. The other
signs I saw were not clever. No, and just because
you put something on the sign does not make it so. No,
not at all.

Speaker 6 (13:09):
Are we great yet? Because I just feel embarrassed.

Speaker 8 (13:11):
Well, now you know how we feel felt during Biden
he was embarrassing us every single decade.

Speaker 6 (13:17):
I couldn't speak.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
I flipped the switch with that, right the end of
the large not a large crowd.

Speaker 6 (13:23):
You know, not a young crowd. Not a young crowd.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
No. No, Well, and like I saw one sign that
said no Nazis, no kings. Okay, all right, we all
agree on that. I'm not sure they don't see any no. No.
And then the one I think might have been my
favorite is someone that says they're protecting free speech. Right, well,
the upside down.

Speaker 6 (13:46):
Papa rocks with the upside down flag is that. I
don't know if that's.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Why does everybody look that way?

Speaker 6 (13:53):
Love Trump's hate?

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Get out and get some sun and get some d three.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
Oh my goodness, that lady's sign was graphic.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
My goodness, yes it was. And honestly, I don't think
she has to be concerned about that. Yeah, right, sorry
about that. I'm sorry about that. That's not help.

Speaker 6 (14:09):
I've never seen I've never seen uh that with that, Okay, no.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
I haven't either.

Speaker 5 (14:15):
It is it was a good it was a funny story. Well,
Coach Saban, how he brought President Trump out talked about
going to the Oval Office.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, that was funny, that was you know now, and
I wonder you know the thing about Saban to me,
Sabin has always been able to pretty much get away
with anything in Alabama. He can I really think that
that Sabin can do no wrong. And uh, and so
but he'll catch some heat for for being there and
actually being nice about the president. But but but I

(14:44):
don't know why. He simply spoke from the point of
view of being a coach of a national championship team
that went to the White House and talked about it
was I don't care who you are and I and
I honestly, Uh, there's been presidents that I obviously didn't
agree with. But if you get a sitting president to
come to your commencement and and be a speaker while

(15:05):
you're a graduate, that's a pretty big deal, A very
big deal.

Speaker 6 (15:08):
Huge deal. They're saving shaking his hand.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
How dare he yeah, do that? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (15:13):
Yeah, but I look, I mean, I think but coach
saving it? He he he has Uh, he doesn't really
pay attention to the haters.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Well, and I'm gonna tell you, if you coach at
the University of Alabama, A row ta you dabbling with
the Republicans does not get you near as much trouble,
near as much trouble if you start dabbling with the Democrats. Yeah,
I mean the flat he'll get for Trump will be
minuscule right right where he gets in troubles if he
does something that the Trumpers deemed to be against Trump. Yeah,

(15:45):
that's when he'd be in trouble. Right as far as
being in Alabama, yeah, yeah, Now if you're in Connecticut,
you know, then you got problems.

Speaker 5 (15:52):
But and and the left is going to have to
come up with an agenda and some ideas. Your your
stance can't just be we're against everything Trump. Does you
actual have to come up with ideas of your want
Did you waste breath on that?

Speaker 1 (16:03):
I'm just saying, I know that's all they got. It's
just aim, that's it, right. Well yeah, okay, well what
about some ideas? What are you'all going to run on? Well,
we're against him, we hated okay, anything he's for.

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Where Okay, so you don't have any fresh ideas and
now we're against him?

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Well he does? How about we did, but we did
see their fresh ideas? Yeah, we didn't like it when
when they controlled the White House and it wasn't I
didn't enjoy it.

Speaker 6 (16:28):
Hey, get this, no border, what do you think? I
don't like that?

Speaker 1 (16:32):
I'm thinking unvetted border, who's in?

Speaker 8 (16:34):
What do you think unlimited government spending and funding for
and more needlessly?

Speaker 1 (16:40):
What do you think about that? Well? How does Trump
feel about it? Now, I'll tell you.

Speaker 6 (16:49):
That's not a stance.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
I'm for biological man being in dressing rooms and bathrooms
and winning all sports. Yes, Uh, what do y'all think
about that?

Speaker 6 (16:57):
We don't like it?

Speaker 4 (16:58):
No?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
So yeah, so we'll well, we'll play some We got
some excerpts from that. We'll play a little bit later on.
But it was, Yeah, you're not gonna speak at the
University of Alabama not say roll tide.

Speaker 6 (17:10):
Did he say it right?

Speaker 8 (17:11):
You know how if you don't say said, well, okay,
good good, No, no winners win saving Trump, you just
got a room full of winners.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
No, when when when you're there, you got to know,
you got to know what audience you're talking to.

Speaker 5 (17:24):
Yeah, he did actually talk about the fact that at
Alabama they know they have a winning tradition.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Do you know how to win? Nice?

Speaker 6 (17:32):
Hey, I'll give it to them. They do, they do
that that.

Speaker 1 (17:36):

today's program, So come on, look at this update. You
remember that horrible story that we did yesterday about the
pirates baseball fan fell out, fell out of the upper

(19:44):
deck on these plants onto the field. I mean, if
you've never guys, if you haven't seen the footage, I
will tell you it's very troubling. Do you remember like
on comedy shows or whatever, where they would pretend that
somebody fell out of a off a building or fell
from a high place and it was obviously a dummy.
The way the dummy flyered around it. Remember Benny Hill.
Benny Hill was man.

Speaker 6 (20:05):
It looked like that.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
It looked like a dummy falling out of it. You're
showing it again, Greg, don't even.

Speaker 5 (20:12):
Look if he would have landed Landy.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Why does that's like he on purpose? Like he jumped.
Look how he looks? How he look how you say
he gets up and over? I mean those are rails
if you notice. I can't watch again, I swear, guys,
looks like he's diving on No, it really does.

Speaker 5 (20:33):
You know it's bad when both teams, trainers and all
the ms there at the stadium come running out.

Speaker 8 (20:39):
Yeah, well there was that person that said I was
right next to him. I was five rows back. He
was drunk. He took his shirt off and poured his
beer on himself, like like the inning before, and he
was there with his girlfriend, a friend and another girl.

Speaker 6 (20:56):
He didn't do it on purpose.

Speaker 8 (20:57):
He just jumped up so fast and then he was
drunk and his balance put him over the bar and
he fell Owang.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
He must have been excited about what was going on.
We have the update here. We now know that this
person was twenty years old right like we're talking about.
He is in critical condition. As you said, Adlert is
being treated as accidental in nature. So say he was

(21:25):
a former athlete, did he did? He played a little ball? Yeah,
football player, and so he he fell as we know,
they keep using twenty one feet, but guys, if the
if the if the fence is twenty one feet, he's
above that. I think you've got to add at least
ten more feet, if not, if not fifteen. But because

(21:49):
he at the you know, they said that he was
an outstanding athlete, as Speedy said, the name is is
Cavin A v A N Kevin mark Wood Yeah and
so and and in critical condition. They're they're not really
telling us, you know, the details of the injuries. They're

(22:12):
just saying he was taken to a trauma center, as
you can imagine. And Pittsburgh says they are deeply saddened.
The club, the owner uh has has already put out
a statement truly heartbroken, terrible accident, asking for people to
pray for the man. So, so who knows. I mean,

(22:32):
this is that's a tough situation right there. And I
hope that he I hope that he survives. But it's
it's not good.

Speaker 6 (22:45):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (22:46):
Yeah, anytime, anytime this happens, it brings up the other
instances in which this has happened, and it's this isn't
the only time I forgot when in Atlanta, like last
year something, a guy was holding his kid and he
went for a ball and he was with his kid.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
I should say, yeah, Miss Hamilton tried to throw a
ball up to a guy with his son, watched his
dad crash and killed him. Yeah, all that exactly, yes,
And he was trying to throw him the ball.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
Yeah, and we all remember the guy that the ball was.
I think it was about to land in the tunnel
or something. He literally jumped trying to catch it into
the tunnel.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
I think he was. It ended up being okay, but
he literally jumped trying to get the ball. It's not
that important. No, it's not. It's not all.

Speaker 6 (23:33):
Oh my goodness. I was trying to figure out where
it happened in Atlanta.

Speaker 8 (23:36):
But did y'all know that in twenty eighteen, a dude
was installing an invention for a faster beer pour and
he was inside the beer cooler and he was he
got trapped, unable to escape where in Atlanta, Oh, at
the stadium, at the stadium, you know, Atlanta Braves Ballpark.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
He died by beer cooler.

Speaker 8 (23:56):
He was trying to get a fast duck in the
beer he worked there. He was installing a deer pouring invention.

Speaker 6 (24:04):
The family says.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Of the invented itself. Alris Beer drinkers all over America
called him a hero. Yeah, right, died what he loved.
He was trying to make a difference. Uh, Kentucky Derby
this weekend, now, speedy, you you're telling me that they're
them pulling this off this weekend is almost miraculous because
of the flooding that we've had in Louisville in the area.

(24:27):
Every year this comes up. Guys, we always start this
talk that we wish we could go to a Kentucky
devery Kentucky Derby every time, every time, and I've never
drest that weird though. Yeah, now I have been there
to the track, but I've never been to the Kentucky Derby.

Speaker 5 (24:42):
And I just I'll tell you to all of those
that have emailed us, we have affiliates in that area
as well that they'll host us. It's not on you'
it's on us, and just on us. Here we go
with our annual I wish we would go. Yeah talk,
but the twenty horse field Rick the number one favorite,
and I love the names. We've talked about horse names. Uh,

(25:03):
journalism four to one odds.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Well, if the name of that horse, if that is
the name of that horse's journalism, we must have shot it.
They must have a broken leg. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (25:14):
But you know, we've heard from people in that area
about the historic flooding and everything that's happened, that the
awful weather, and they said that for a while they
thought that this weekend might be in jeopardy, but that uh,
they've come together, spent millions of dollars getting it ready
and and uh, they are going to have a race weekend.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
The first running. Greg, just show you have your information updated.
Rodriguez at nine to one has scratched. Oh well, let
me mark him on. Okay, let's let's get that out
of there.

Speaker 5 (25:41):
Uh, let's see, let's just look at a chunk of
gold is in the field. I'm just looking at uh yeah,
I'm looking at names here.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Do you ever wonder those of you in Florida? Like
one of the horses, he's nineteen to one admired Daytona.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
Yeah, that is kind of neat. And look at that
render judgments twelve to one. You know how I kind
of like it's seventeen to one, citizen bull Citizens. Yeah,
oh look at here, Rick American promise. Yeah, twelve to one.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
Okay, I can't even pronounce the fifty to one and
the sixty one to one flying Mohawk, and you know
they don't go by those names flying mohawk. I'm like, yeah,
that's a that's a good one. Thirty nine to one though?
Do like that? What about Owen Almighty? That that horse
is a little full of themself?

Speaker 5 (26:29):
I tell you wonder what things like East Avenue? Let's
the story behind that one?

Speaker 6 (26:33):
Yeah, I wonder what tis tastic means.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
You know, I haven't really been keeping up with horse racing.
And I see Sandman there at five to one? That
is that that that must be a good horse. Yeah yeah,
huts everybody else to sleep. Okay. So so anyway, is
this weekend speedy? And the great thing about us going
to the Kentucky Derby, but I guess we're never going
to do it is you'd get to wear a cool hat.
I know that would be kind of neat. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (26:58):
No, yes, I mean we how many years we'll go
back to the sports Ours?

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Greg? We claim we were going to doing a show
there they would send us to that part where they're
running on top of the borderlands. Well, as Speedy said,
this is what's so disgusting. Yeah, there's two things in
my life that that people have opened the door for
and I won't walk through the door. I have had
multiple opportunities to go to Lombardi, uh, to to lambeau Field,

(27:28):
to see Green Bay with Bart Starr's son, So I
think we probably have pretty good seats. Yeah, multiple opportunities
to get dropping stuff, multiple opportunities, and I never went.
And now I think that door may have closed. The
Kentucky Derby. As Speedy said, we have an affiliate that
says we will make this happen. We will host you,
we will host you, we will make this happen, and

(27:49):
we haven't gone to me. It seems like a lot
going on for just a few minutes.

Speaker 5 (27:54):
It's a short event, the greatest two minutes in sports.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
That's the greatest, and two minutes in all of sports.
A bit of a bit of us that would bother
you again. But don't you say, like, don't they have
like other races that happened throughout the day. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it leads up to that. Yeah, the grass.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
Yeah, I'm I'm seeing here is rendered judgment? Is that
in the Toby Keith family that his horse.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Don't know, I don't know. I remember mc Hammer had one,
You remember that? No, he did that.

Speaker 8 (28:28):
His name horse gets beer Ferry.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Whiskip for the moment. They said that the horse is
always right before he runs, he takes a little something
of a solo cup. Yeah, right, what Some say this
falls underword judgment when they break down how mc hammer
lost all his money. The purchase of the race horse
was one of the things. Really, Yeah, when Tyson blew

(28:54):
all his money, he buy a horse too, He probably did.

Speaker 8 (28:56):
And a tiger had a lot of tigers. If you're
buying a tiger, you're out of control. Yeah, yeah, to
you are out of control.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
I'm not seeing that. But I saw a text about it.
But I don't see the name listed.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
But I don't know. Can I say I actually thought
the text asked us about Toby Keith's house instead of horse. Well,
I just looked at I glanced. We'll be back right here, Yeah,
there it is. We'll be right back all right. So

(29:33):
let's take a minute right now. Blaze TV. You know
we're part of the Blaze family, and we're fired up
to officially welcome the Cole Shanahan and her show Back
to the People to the Blaze family. Now you might
remember Nicole Silicon Valley attorney, entrepreneur, advocate who spent years
fighting for transparency, freedom and real change, but a major

(29:54):
voice in the Make America Healthy Again movement with rfk Jr.
You know, trying to push for a government that actually
works for the people, not just the elites. What a concept.
Her brand new Blaze TV show, Back to the People.
Nicole's going to dig into the conversations that mainstream media
often ignores, going to bring together experts, activists, everyday people

(30:15):
to tackle tough issues, share untold stories, and find real
solutions rooted in truth and humanity. So if you'd like
to get a sneak peek before the show is actually
on Blaze TV, go to her YouTube channel, go to
YouTube dot com slash Nicole Shanahan, or you can just
go to YouTube and search Nicole Shanahan. But her new

(30:36):
TV or her new show, I should say, coming to
Blaze TV very soon, Back to the People. So Blaze
TV welcomes Nicole Shanahan to the team. Dam full the
rig Burdens Show America. Are you ready, Speedy, Greg Adler,

(31:00):
all here for a brand new hour box seats coming out?
What's eding? Scott Garowski, Yes, that happens today. All that
still come on the program time, all right, so other
things to cover today. So I'm looking at this story.

(31:22):
So Steve Doocy, that's been on Fox and Friends forever,
back in the Rick and Bubba days, always really really
kind and nice to us and so helpful, came on
the show a lot, had us own Fox and Friends
when Bubba and I did all the books with them.
It was called Thomas Nelson at the time. It's now
Harper Collins. Now I think I think they may have

(31:43):
been bought by somebody else. But anyway, So and he's
we've been keeping in touch and he's a great guy,
always very helpful. It looks like that he's going to
have a new role now on Fox and Friends. Says
thirty years are almost thirty years of waking up at
three point thirty in the morning, Chryst of River, Steve, Huh, yeah,

(32:07):
what time you get up, Grey, I'd be about two
twenty speedy, to be specifically three o'clock. Uh, I'm three fifteen.
I was three today, Adler four four. So h so anyway,
but it is, uh, you do become that person like
I was out having dinner last night with one of
my sons and his wife, and you know, you you

(32:29):
do become that person where you start kind of shuffling
around and you know, and the kids have picked him
my dad. Are you are you starting to feel that
it's time to go to bed? Yeah, guys, we got
to wrap this up, you know, so you start counting.
And he was talking about what we talked about just
on the air, Adler, when we were talking about, you know,
kidding around about whether you made up your wife or

(32:51):
not or whether it was real, and we were talking
about the things that this if you work at the
times we work in a lot of people do too,
the things that you miss in dou see he talks
about this. He said, you know, unless I was on vacation,
did I never had breakfast with my kids. I never
saw my wife in the morning. And and so he's
still going to be on Fox and Friends, just not

(33:13):
every day. And he's not going to be in New York.
He's going to be based out of Florida, and he's
going to be in different places in the country that
a lot of times don't get a lot of coverage.
Didn't he say, Yeah, he's going to be called Coast
to Coast with Deocy. That's it. The deuce is loose,
that's it. So he's only going to be on three
days a week. But is he still having to get

(33:34):
up and he still does the Coast to Coast said, so,
he's only going to have breakfast two days a week
with his family. So he's looking forward to having breakfast
with his grandkids and his kids now whenever he wants.
But it won't be whenever he wants. He's going to
do three three days a week. He's got to come
live from somewhere to Fox and Friends.

Speaker 5 (33:49):
Well, I don't know that it's kill me. I don't
know that it'll be live. It just says he announces
his new Coast to Coast roll. So it could be
that he can some and they play it back.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
I have no idea.

Speaker 5 (33:58):
But okay, it does say that he'll be with them
three days a week. So, but to your point, it
doesn't really go into detail on a lot of things.
It just announces that he's going to step back from
his everyday role. President Trump even thanked him for the
years of coverages, coveraging, covering him, I should say in
his contribution to the country, with a great show every

(34:22):
day bringing the news.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
I can tell Dousey from everything. And he's one of
these people I've never had heard anyone say I'll tell
you one thing. He's a jerk, I mean never. I mean,
he seems to have I feel jump on with him.
He seems to be friendly, he seems to be fun.
And it looks like that. But I mean you might
be right speed because he says, this is his quote,

(34:44):
after decades of getting up at three point thirty and
driving into New York City in the dark, today is
the last day I will host this show from this couch.
I'm not retiring, I'm leaving. I'm not leaving the show.
I'm still a host, but it's time for a change.
So if he says he's done with getting up at
three thirty and obviously driving into to New York, he

(35:07):
said he's going We already said this, but he'll be
based out of Florida, and that he will come on
and broadcast from areas that don't get a lot of coverage,
unlike New York parts, and so I don't know. As
a matter of fact, he said, my first the first
time I'll be on with the new show or my
new role called Coast to Coast. I will be live

(35:28):
from Pleasant Valley, Alabama. Yep, that's where he's starting to Right,
We're welcome talking talking with Greg Burgess. That's right. So yeah,
you're right. We need to reach out to Douce today
and say, hey, congratulations and all that so interesting. All right,
a couple of emails to run down today. So these

(35:55):
are emails from you, you know, questions, comments, thing you
wanted to talk about. This comes from David. David said, hey, Bird,
hay Burge, can you guys confirm whether this is true
or not. I heard that the Browns have retired Shirdor
Sanders Jersey. I think that's a good one. Well that's

(36:16):
about it makes it as much sense. It's Colorado doing it, Adair,
I sent this one to you. This is the one
that has the picture with it. So this one, hay Burge,
hay burd just comes from Madison. Madison said that. He said,
thought y'all might get a kick out of this. I
graduated from Jacksonville State University. Congratulations, Madison and on my
way home, I had to stop and get a picture. Yep,

(36:39):
in front of this street sign. And he's standing in
front of Burgess Road. I've driven by it every day
for the past two years, and every time I passed it,
I think about the show. Loved the new show and
certainly enjoyed the O show as well. Congratulations to graduate
Madison Simms. And here is the picture for those of
you that watch on YouTube. And he sent me a picture.

(37:00):
He is standing with his diploma in his gown. I
don't see the cap, you know, probably kind of like
Speedy Sun a look on Monday, you know, Yeah, where's
his cap? All the pictures though, you don't right, and
he is, Uh, he's standing under the street signed there
in Jacksonville, Burgess Rope exact. Really, it's speed. You've driven
back many times where you would go, ye there. So

(37:26):
here's here's another one. This comes from Randy. A little
breakdown communication here with Randy. Okay, uh, hey Bird, hey Burge. Uh,
there's a problem I went to check on getting the book.
Men don't run in the rain and they are sold out. Uh,
they're gonna be any more in stock Okay, what you're
probably looking at Randy is there were some some pre

(37:49):
paperback versions that were available for the conferences we did
back at the first of the year, so that link
is probably old and bad. So the book does not
come out till May thirteenth, So the reason why you
can't find any is that the official date has not come.
So you're good, Randy. It'll be May thirteenth, it'll be

(38:10):
an audiobook, it'll be in hardback, and it'll be in ebooks.
So May the thirteenth, Randy, you are still good, and
we'll have that link on the website and all that
kind of stuff. So exciting. Hey, bird a Birge. I
hear you guys talk about songs that you hear and
songs that burn out and you kind of get tired
of because they get played too much. Heard you guys

(38:31):
saying that you even though I still love them. And
some people in the text Nation yesterday referred to it
as blasphemy that Greg made the mistake of telling America
that he doesn't listen to Sweet Home Alabama all the
way through anymore. Well, I've heard it a lot that
did not go over well. I mean, it's a great
riff and starts all that I've heard it a lot,
even your minions really good song. Push back a little

(38:53):
bit on that great song. So I heard it, But
Brad says, so hey, Burge, is there a song that
you guys hear every single time and never grow tired
of it? He said, for me, it's the song Landslide.
That's a good one, no matter how many times I
hear it, that's a good one, and said, I'm not
even a big Fleetwood Mac fan, but when I hear Landslide,
I will listen to it every single time. I can

(39:14):
understand that by the way I saw it perform live. Okay,
so you can you can you think of song a
song that you got when he comes on, I'm never
I'm never tired of that. I'm gonna you're gonna being
you do not say Thompson twins. Now, I'm not all
gonna be so mad at me? What is it? I
got a what are they? What are they? Guns and roses?

(39:38):
November Rain? Okay, well that's a long one. That's a
big commitment. Purple rain, Prince, that's like it's got rain
in it.

Speaker 6 (39:48):
You're in right, fire and rain?

Speaker 1 (39:51):
You do you love that one? Taylor or as the
drunk said in the at the James Stater concert, let
me tell you about that. He keeps springing out pouring rain.

Speaker 7 (40:01):
And.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Finally, James, telling himself, said, by the way, it's fire
and rain, and I will be doing it. Just be calm.
For some reason, I have one, and not only that,
but it's so far out of left field and I
really can't explain it. But for some reason, I never
get tired of the song Name by the Googo the
Goo Goo Dolls? What did you just same? Who are you?

(40:27):
I'm just telling you. I'm not saying that I seek
it out.

Speaker 6 (40:29):
Who Dolls.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
I'm just telling you, for some reason, your people can't
take it. I'm twenty four hours ago. You don't listen
to Swing on Alabama all the way through and you
will listen to Name by Goo Goo Dolls. Who are you?
I'm just telling I don't know why. I have no
idea what.

Speaker 6 (40:45):
It's a shame?

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Is it okay? If I say Phil Collins in the
Air tonight, yeah? Is that okay? I don't but it's
getting tired of that. I'll tell you. I don't get
tired of purple rain. There it is, I said it.

Speaker 6 (40:58):
I just don't think it's fantastic.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
I just don't. I don't know. Is a cool song,
just a little chill and listen to No, No, I'm not.

Speaker 8 (41:05):
I'm not turning that Ophelia by The band I will
listen to Ophelia by the Banded and One by Metallica.

Speaker 6 (41:12):
That's another commitment. It just builds and builds.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
We'll be right back. More of the show coming up
right after this. All right, So we like where we
are right now. Let's just talk about it as conservatives.
We feel like we're winning right now. But you know,
you think, Hey, these false narratives, we're finally, you know,
bringing light to and we're disputing them. Hey, we're looking

(41:38):
good right now. We've got the White House. People are
waking up. But but the fight's not over, not even close.
Will let me tell you back to left, into a corner,
they'll come out like a wildcat. So that's why Blaze
TV exists and why it's more important than it's ever been.
I mean, we're in a world full of noise. We
need a stronghold for bold voices, free thinkers. Fearless commentary

(42:01):
makes sense of all the chaos that's out there. So
let me tell you Blaze TV is home of some
of the strongest, smartest voices and conservative media. And if
you like investigative journalism and you've missed it, you'll find
it on Blaze TV. You want to see documentaries that
tell the truth, you'll find that on Blaze stev. So

eight bucks a month. In many cases, that's the price
of one of those fancy cups of coffee that Greg
wouldn't drink. So get your Blaze TV right right now now,

(42:44):
more than ever, the fight is going to continue. If
you want the right information and be prepared, you need
to be with Blaze TV, unfiltered, unafraid, and on demand. Okay,
So Trump yesterday University of Alabama. We mentioned that earlier,
but we actually have some of the clips now. So

(43:07):
he was the commencement speaker, right, Yeah, So Nick Saban
introduces Trump and he tells this story about being there
at the White House with one of the national championship
teams from Alabama and cut one a adler. So here
he is telling them this story. And then we'll come
back and get some of the Trump's stuff from the

(43:27):
commencement too. But here's the setup.

Speaker 7 (43:30):
And before I introduced President Trump, I have to tell
you a story. You know, you all know that we
won a national championship, we get to go to the
White House and it's a great experience for our players
and each and every year when we won in twenty seventeen,
President Trump was there at twenty eighteen, very gracious host,
and he's the first president that invited us to come
in the Oval Office. So I take the three captains

(43:53):
in the Oval Office and President's really nice to everybody,
and he's got this very big, good looking, auspicious box
on his desk that has a red button on top.
And one of the players said, is that what you
want some missiles with? And he said, well push it

(44:13):
and find out. You know, my good player said no,
I don't want to do that. He said, oh, go ahead,
go ahead, go ahead, push it. See see what happens.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
Find out.

Speaker 7 (44:23):
So Rashaun Evans finally got the guts up, went over
pushed the red button. Some lady came in with a
coke on a tray.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
So you know that's that's what the button was for.
So important thing. Yeah, well we'll come back and trump
some of the comments he made. Of course, you know,
you know Trump when when he's with the home crowd.

Speaker 5 (44:46):
He had anything he did, he had.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
Let me tell you if Donald Trump a road tag
in a road Trump when you have the tide in
Trump together, I mean, it's it's Trump magic. So so
we'll come back. We got some clips from the commencement.
I'm wondering that those of you out there, if you
had you know, sons and daughters graduating from the University
of Alabama. I mean, how about you had Trump? Is

(45:10):
your commencement speaker? Pretty good? That that that is good?
And of course we talked about the little mini protest
that was there that and that was kind of I mean,
I'm just thinking if if I, if I am a leftist,
which would take a lot of imagination, I just don't
know that I'd waste time on trying to protest Trump
coming to University of Alabama. I mean, what what ground

(45:30):
can you possibly make their? You're wasting your time. Yeah,
it seems a waste of energy. The bottom of the
hour will come back. Trump gives the commendments commencement speech
at the University of Alabama's all right, so Trump, somebody
said that you really if your kid graduated from the
University of Alabama, you could say my kid graduated from

(45:54):
a Trump rally. Uh so yeah, so there was some
of that going on. He had them so. Uh the
students at the University of Alabama went wild for Trump
when he arrives. So we we have that and and
one be here.

Speaker 6 (46:09):
You want to sabans wrap up here?

Speaker 1 (46:12):
Uh about bringing him on?

Speaker 9 (46:15):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (46:15):
Yeah, if you want too. Sure transition into is that
transition into B?

Speaker 6 (46:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (46:19):
The United States? Donald J.

Speaker 3 (46:22):
Trump here comes, Trump here, come right around the road side.

Speaker 1 (46:32):
They read Chad and they're ready with Trump m But yeah.

Speaker 6 (46:36):
I've got that other view. And it's kind of cool.
He's it's on the on the floor there, so you
can kind of know he.

Speaker 1 (46:41):
Did his old dance last night? Know he did? Did
he hear the dance? That's the one he says that
his wife keeps telling him not to do. Of course
he does. And how does he say it?

Speaker 8 (46:52):
I guess everyone's wife is telling them not to dance
because mine wife does the same thing to me.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
She tells you not to.

Speaker 6 (46:59):
He's like, your embarrass everyone.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
You dance, man, Yeah you can. I thought he tells
me not to dance, but I do it. Okay, it
is the chin. Yeah, and he's thirst and howl the
third that's I'm not thirst now nearly choked yourself. By
the way, it nearly choked yourself. I'm the president that
now that now you're back to head injury out. Okay,

(47:22):
here we go. Let's go back to President Trump. The railway. Yeah, okay,
all right, so there is so so now I know
I'm throwing y'all off. Y'all think it's him, but it's yeah,
you've confused me. I thought he was. Trump tells the
graduates from the University of Alabama that they are the
first graduating class in the Golden Age of America.

Speaker 4 (47:39):
Here, as you graduated's natural to reflect on four years
of happy memories, and you've really had happy memories here.

Speaker 9 (47:47):
You've done a lot of winning.

Speaker 4 (47:48):
Winning is a good thing to do. But today I'm
also asking you to look forward to really something very
very bright and more promising. And it's going to be
an even more are promising tomorrow. I promise you that
you're the first graduating class of the.

Speaker 9 (48:05):
Golden Age of America.

Speaker 6 (48:07):
We're in the Golden Age.

Speaker 4 (48:08):
You watch the Golden.

Speaker 6 (48:12):
The Golden Age.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
He's got a little he's got a listen, I got him.

Speaker 6 (48:16):
I don't know, No, I don't know what is happening.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
Unbelievable. Hey, listens. Not even Trump has a little bit
of Adler. He's a repeater. He is oh yeah, he repeats,
not gonna do it, not gonna do that, going to.

Speaker 5 (48:32):
Be We've discussed that in the past. It sometimes it's
three times he repeat it, and then that third time.

Speaker 1 (48:38):
He really drives it home.

Speaker 6 (48:41):
Next you need to work on that. I need to
work on that.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
You're good as you do Yes, you do well, dud.
So next you have you have Trump saying, you, guys know,
he's back to the winning again with Alabama. But he
also is saying that these students need to continue to
help him win. So here here we go a great time.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
I'm absolutely confident that the Alabia I'm a class of
twenty twenty five is up to the task.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
Are you up to the task?

Speaker 4 (49:08):
You learned a lot about winning here in Alabama. And
now we need you to help win for America when.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
We're gonna win. All Right, this next thing that we
look at your face like you're mad, Yeah, yeah, you're
angry Trump or something. But we we now get a
little glimpse. And with us doing the show on location
coming up in a couple of weeks on May the fourteenth,
I will probably get an opportunity. We will as a
team get an opportunity tour. According Speedy, Mayri be on

(49:39):
the course at this point. I don't know, but Tommy
Tuberville is will be on the show. And a lot
of people are saying, get him to say on the
show whether he's gonna run for governor or not of Alabama.
So this is out there. You know, I'm kind of torn.
I mean, it's Tubville more valuable to America by staying

(49:59):
in the in it then he would be as the
governor of Alabama. I don't know, but whatever he does.
But anyway, here is talking about Tommy Tuberville beating Alabama
six times in a row.

Speaker 6 (50:11):
He's going to say that not there, he didn't bring
that up. There, he's there, Tommy's there, Tommy brings this up.
But then he turns it around. He saves it.

Speaker 1 (50:22):
He says, okay, oh, no.

Speaker 4 (50:24):
Very wonderful man. A friend of mine, Senator Tommy Tuberville.
Where is Tommy?

Speaker 1 (50:30):
He's still doing mixed emotions from the crowders here.

Speaker 4 (50:33):
When he wanted to run for the Senate, you know,
I said, well, you beat Alabama six times in a row,
how can you run for the Senate? He said, well,
I just look at him and say, well, I was
responsible for them getting Nick Saban. I said that's a
good reason, okay, And he won very easily. He won.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
But that's the race, okay, the political race, all right.

Speaker 6 (51:00):
And he turns it around by saying roll time.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
All right, so here here we go. We got him
that we're going to erupt. I like his role timee tag.
It's a pretty good roll time. Do you remember me
talking to the new coach last year? Yes, the boor,
and I didn't think his role tide was up to parliament.
Well you call him you're saying that, oh, you calling
him out right to him? Very uncomfortable. He got a
better roll tide pretty much ran the fans. Were you

(51:22):
not happy with his role tide?

Speaker 6 (51:23):
It was real early for you to be messing with
him pretty much run the stace.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Yeah, you really him off. I was trying to do it.
I mean, do you think you think everybody wasn't thinking
that when he did his first roll time? I think
so not a good one. I just said to your
roll Tide could improve, very uncomfortable. All right, let's sair
how Trump does it? Here? We group?

Speaker 6 (51:43):
This is what a nice looking group this is? And
they love that. And here comes his real time.

Speaker 4 (51:52):
A very big hellow to the University of Alabama. Congratulations
to the class of twenty twenty five, old tide.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
That's that's not a bad road time. No, I don't
know who you are you trailed off?

Speaker 8 (52:13):
No, that's that's Thurston Howell. You have Forrest Gump and
you have thirst and seems to be it.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
Y'all are the teacher on monsters inks? So y'all just hush.
Is there to got a commencement?

Speaker 4 (52:23):
Now?

Speaker 1 (52:24):
I said to Trump, it's a road Trump and a
road Tade, all right. So now, uh.

Speaker 3 (52:32):
Now let's go to three B.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Yeah, I would ready for that. Uh three B. Trump
is going to say, as long as he's president, he's
gonna make sure one thing doesn't happen. The crowd goes nuts.
All right, So three b here here here's Trump saying
that he's already handled with an executive order. Uh, this
is you know, even at one point does a little
joke about this. But here he is talking about women

(52:55):
and having to deal with biological men in sports. Here
we go, and I love.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Sports, and I think I should have come here. I
think that should have come been to congratulations as well
to the women's track and field team for winning two
SEC titles this year. That's something as long and as
long as I'm president, we will always protect women's sports.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
Men will not play in women's sports.

Speaker 6 (53:24):
Wow, and like that hard to disagree with that.

Speaker 4 (53:32):
Nowhere they say that's an eighty twenty issue. No, it's
a ninety seven to three issue.

Speaker 9 (53:41):
I think.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
So that that was big. And then I don't. I don't.
We don't have it. But I know that we speedy
showed to me. At one point he was to saying
we was pretending to lift weights. Yes, yeah, he was
talking about that. There was some guy and he talked
about that that was not very good and men's weightlifting,
and then and then he and then he says he
goes great, goes into women walks up there at the

(54:06):
record just goes. He starts pushing it up like like
the guy's accomplished something. So so anyway, I thank you.
Trump went over big yesterday in Alabama. Well, there's great
being a cole Coleman colsoum. Okay, people are saying, you're
also you have two versions, you're Thurston High well the third,
but then you'll mix in just a little bit of

Nurse comes in, very sweet. What's going on? I said,
I think I've just looked at my shoulder. Okay, let's

you cannot give a thumbs up at this point. You
know we're not here yet. Now, we're way too differ

(01:01:41):
a thumbs up. Okay. One hour later, after the doctor
gets put through playing grab both the nurses and goes
insists in front of me, right and see him across
the hallway to check his phone, didn't Yeah, and eat
a sandwich. He rose into the room to see me. Okay,
here's the conversation. Here's what's problem. I said, Well, I'm

(01:02:03):
pretty sure I just located my shoulder. Why do you
think that? I said, Well, that metal across ball can
think protruding out of the front of my arm was
the first indications. Second is I can't move it. Okay,
So I'm feeling pretty confident about this. Well, we got
to get an X ray, of course you do. An
hour later, I get taken twenty five feet to the

(01:02:24):
X for everything, right, okay, which I could have crawled
over there. I could have berey crawled and got there
in four minutes. Okay. We had got a specialist to
bring a real tar down and get me over there. Okay.
Doctor comes back in says, hey, you just looked at
your shoulder. He did, I look at it. Do you

ain't even good at anything really. They just kinda do
a little bit of things good. He says, I could
do this surgery or back, but I'm not going to.
You know, I'm gonna call on somebody else. You know,
I'm gonna call a specialist that I could do it.

(01:03:14):
Of course you could, Okay, of course you could. So
he calls in. It's like they're the people that when
you call road to ruter, the E R doctor's the
guy that answered the phone. He's not the guy coming
out to clean the pipes. He's just the sub guy.
That's what the R doctors do. Okay. They all like
to have it slept in months and I don't think
they have a.

Speaker 9 (01:03:32):
Real degree with you, I don't think they have a
real degree.

Speaker 11 (01:03:35):
They're the bill gathers of doctors. They surround himself everything
everybody around them to look. Doesn't sound good, but they
don't do anything. All right, that's great? Is all right?
Of course we have to get more test done, you know,
Coleen Osby, we gotta get hair. You're in a fall

on the loose on their right to talk O bells.

So Groosky, how did this end? I mean, I know
that you've already made your case that emergency rooms are
the d m V of medicine. Soney. So douy Hauser
is in front of you, he says, I might accidentally
break your arm.

Speaker 11 (01:06:00):
Yes, he's not excited because that's not a good I mean,
no surgery wants to come in after somebody else's surgery.
So I understand that. I mean we're talking about four
weeks post off, so I mean I'm still you know,
we still got a red scar, right, I mean we're
not We're not there, and I wouldn't do anything stupid.
By the way, I was like, told y'all, I've bent

Yeah, I thought you were going to tell me.

Speaker 11 (01:06:24):
I wasn't. I wish I could say something or something.
I was playing golf. How are you playing off in
four weeks? That's part of it. It was a reverse
what they call a reverse shoulder, and they basically get
rid of your rotator cuff for the most part so
you can recover faster, which is a great thing for me.
And certainly you're in pain, but I mean it's like

(01:06:46):
work through it. So I was working through it and
it just got really tight and I've just bent over
to touch my toes and thought, oh, childress came out.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
So you're in front of you and doge. He says,
I might break your arm. You see, if you do,
please tell the arm down, yeah, because if you don't,
I'll use it against you.

We had the whole saga with Franklin the Turtle yesterday.
It was a big one and I missed him. You know,
we had we bonded with him.

Speaker 8 (01:11:32):
He was our friend. He fell in the console. We
lost him for a second. We found him again and
we're rescued him. And I was thinking that we we
kind of needed a studio pet.

Speaker 1 (01:11:40):
Oh no, you didn't bring him.

Speaker 6 (01:11:42):
I needed to go get something out of my car,
really quick, car. I just remembered, it's still in my
car and.

Speaker 6 (01:11:49):
Yeah, yeah, it's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
It's not a cool day.

Speaker 6 (01:11:52):
It's just starting to heat up.

so you canbody can see you run there, got his
mic off, just like.

Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
Okay, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:12:04):
Yesterday he joked around a little bit about getting a
fish for the studio.

Speaker 11 (01:12:09):
Fish.

Speaker 1 (01:12:11):
Surely he didn't have the fish in the van. If
he had, if he had the fish in that dre
I'm not cleaning that out every day saying you don't
want fish. That's him. It's going to stay in there.
What are we talking to goldfish? I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:12:23):
I'm just guessing. He just he said he was gonna
get he wants us to have some kind of show
mascot because of the whole frame.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
Well, you could have kept the turtle. You could have
done that. Keep up with the turtle. Did you say
the lady shows a picture yesterday? The turtle is twenty
years yes, yes, Why it's a fish. You've got it
in a cup. What do you do? What are you doing?
Why you've got it in a cup. We don't need

(01:12:50):
a studio pet. No one's gonna take care of it?
What what kind is that? I can't tell what you got?
What do you got?

Speaker 6 (01:12:55):
I can't believe he's alive. I forgot about him because
you know, things get hectic here in the morning in
the radio show. But yeah, here's our little buddy.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
Who's going to take care of him, like over the
weekend and stuff?

Speaker 6 (01:13:04):
We could take turns taking them home over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:13:06):
No, no, this is this is your pet.

Speaker 6 (01:13:11):
It's like a class pet. It's a studio pet.

the way.

Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
What you had, Yes, buddy was saying about a race thing. No, no,
it's not.

Speaker 6 (01:14:02):
That's what they're called. That's not what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
We know you like black fish, but look check him out.

Speaker 6 (01:14:07):
What should we name him? You guys, we have a
studio Adler's fish.

Speaker 1 (01:14:12):
I'd like to see it closer, so.

Speaker 6 (01:14:15):
Check him out. He's pretty I don't I don't want.

Speaker 1 (01:14:18):
To come in there.

Speaker 5 (01:14:19):
Addler's running across the studio.

Speaker 6 (01:14:22):
So you keep him away from this right here.

Speaker 1 (01:14:27):
Now, Rick is holding him up to his face. Don't
I don't feel the connection to him, I said, I
think it's not doing well. It's not doing well. He
looks good, so why why does he looks good? Why
is he going to the surface? Is there no oxygen
left in this little supposed to keep him in a cup? Now?
Why you're keeping him in there?

Speaker 6 (01:14:48):
They keep him in a cup in the in the store,
they keep him in a coup in the store.

Speaker 1 (01:14:52):
That's what, Yes, temporary fixed. There's something that like when
you order porking beans to go. Yeah, to go that hole.
What what are we doing?

Speaker 6 (01:15:01):
It's got a hole in the lid, it's got hold
of for air. He can go up to the surface.

Speaker 1 (01:15:06):
He shouldn't have to go to the surface. He has gills.
Why why don't we You're gonna have to get some
sort of fish bowl. He can't stay in this.

Speaker 6 (01:15:14):
I did see a coffee pot that we're not using
in the kitchen.

Speaker 5 (01:15:17):
That would be would be cool for you to take
it home every where every night you have food for him.

Speaker 6 (01:15:23):
I got food, yeah, somewhere. I'm not beef jerky over here.

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
I'm just not connecting to this the way I did.

Speaker 6 (01:15:29):
Frankly, well, it takes time.

Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
You can't.

Speaker 6 (01:15:31):
It's not gonna sometimes it's not love it first sight
always right. What should we name it?

Speaker 1 (01:15:35):
Is it male or female?

Speaker 6 (01:15:36):
It's a male?

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
Are you sure?

Speaker 9 (01:15:38):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (01:15:40):
I can it's a male. If you look real close,
fins are longer.

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
Okay, you what we can do? Then beta fish? You
put another one in there? They'll fight.

Speaker 6 (01:15:49):
That's there. They're like the Chinese fighting fish is the
like the.

I don't know where you can say oriental anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:16:03):
Rick people can say oriental.

Speaker 6 (01:16:04):
I don't think you can say oriental rugs and rug
only say Asian.

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
Let's call him chin Chin.

Speaker 6 (01:16:12):
Yeah, that's not Chin the fish. You don't even have
a chin.

Speaker 1 (01:16:16):
How about this? What is this about an Asian? What
about what about mister chin, mister Chin, mister Chen or
blue mister Chin, bluey bubbles?

Speaker 6 (01:16:26):
What about bubbles?

Speaker 1 (01:16:28):
No? How about dead? Because that's what he's got. Don't

like to seeing middle Rance coffee.

Speaker 6 (01:17:27):
I'll get the coffee pike.

Speaker 1 (01:17:28):
It sounds terrible, but it's better than that. It's gonna
cut and also it probably make the fish a little
more energetic because I'm sure there's fragments in it. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:17:35):
Oh yeah, So I'm glad you guys like it. I'm
glad you got support.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):

I brought him into the house. But how about with

you guys to transfer him home when it's your weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:17:51):
By the way, he's no Franklin for him over to
other water.

Speaker 6 (01:17:57):
Yeah yeah, yeah, you just dump it. You know, you
gotta dump it fast.

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
You don't.

Speaker 9 (01:18:02):
That's what you don't is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:18:10):
All right? So these are These are actual emails, so,
and I wonder, Greg, this may be almost in a right. Again,
it's not a good topic for you. I don't know
that you know that much about this. I'm just wondering
if y'all have heard this at or maybe you have.
Uh this comes from Trenton. Hey Bird, Hey Burge. I'm

(01:18:31):
listening a day behind. So I apologize if you guys
have already covered it. But are you and the guys
aware that Stephen A. Smith has a reoccurring role in
the soap opera General Hospital.

Speaker 6 (01:18:46):
Yes, yes, I've seen them.

Speaker 1 (01:18:48):
I did too.

Speaker 5 (01:18:48):
I was.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
I don't know why it was on.

Speaker 6 (01:18:50):
It's on in here, it's on in the TVs in here.

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
Maybe that's when I loved in the room and I thought,
that's Stephen A. Smith. Yes, it says I, like many kids,
grew up at my grandmother's house house with her programs.
Oh yeah, uh as she called them playing in the background.
I'm somewhat familiar with the characters, but I was shocked
when the other day I saw a clip online of

(01:19:13):
Stephen A. Smith shooting someone on TV.

Speaker 6 (01:19:16):
Yes, there's a crooked nurse that's doing something. He comes
in and next thing. You know, there's guns and knives.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
And he said, I don't know what's going on around.
Am I that's your impression of Stephen A. Smith? Look,
am I allowed to do this?

Speaker 7 (01:19:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:19:27):
Yeah, it's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:19:28):
Okay, here's the crooked nurse in here, you.

Speaker 6 (01:19:32):
Guys, I'm gonna need to see some I d.

Speaker 12 (01:19:38):
Now.

Speaker 6 (01:19:39):
Yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 (01:19:42):
Crooked nurse. Crooked nurse got a gun, so does Stephen
H stephen A. Y'all, that's funny. Just shot. Somebody tell
you I just shot that nurse. Well, she's crooked. She
had it coming.

Speaker 7 (01:19:56):
You see how you did it?

Speaker 1 (01:19:57):
She drew first. Yeah, she looked to love for Steven. Yeah,
try Steven A. Smith again. You tell her about your
how you're done with something?

Speaker 9 (01:20:09):
Interrupt?

Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
Sorry, interrupt.

Speaker 13 (01:20:14):
I need to see some ID Okay. A thousand does
not know about me? All right, Okay, you do, I'm Steve. Okay,
put that over with the rest.

Speaker 1 (01:20:28):
All right. That's terrible. All right. So, so Trenton said,
he I've researched this, and Stephen A. Smith has been
in forty four episodes of General Hospice.

Speaker 11 (01:20:38):
You did.

Speaker 1 (01:20:39):
We talked about that many. I said, I've seen him
on it, but I thought it was like a guest appearance.
I didn't know there was any way he'd been there.
Forty is what you need to do, all right, it
says Uh. He says, I grew up with my mom
on the on the way to school. Now the last
four years uh and Trenton said, I have listened to
every minute of every day, so I transition from the

(01:21:01):
old show and I continue to enjoy the new show
and I don't miss a minute every single day. Thanks
for the entertainment. So I did not know stephen A. Smith.
I saw my thought like a one off thing. I
don't know forty four episodes. People are seeing us pictures
of their beavers. How about them? Tells? Look at that

(01:21:23):
one of them got a chunk coring out of it.
Look wow, until you explain, until you explain what you
just said. I ain't looking at that screen, all right,
So something wrong with me? Something wrong with me? You
just shouted out to the world and people are sending
us pictures of their beavers. On the text line, why

(01:21:43):
don't you say it this way? Hey man, there's people
that apparently have killed beavers and they've got their bodies
laying in pictures on it. On the screen. No one
should ever say, hey, check the text line. Birds. People
send us pictures of their beavers, you should never say
I don't think, well, are they not beavers? They are?
They are, they're the animals. Yes, then I don't know

(01:22:05):
what the problem is. Well, evidently they're a nuisance. Yeah,
they've got they're dead, big old fat tails. You know,
like to slap that thing on the water. I like
to thank Speedy for making us I'll remember the great
serious naked gun. Yes, all right, so a couple of them,
A couple of it. You just need to be a
little more savvy. Uh, let's just what it is. We

(01:22:28):
just think it through.

Speaker 9 (01:22:29):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:22:29):
But but but I don't think you said theirs. You
could have left that out. You could just said the
word yeah. I think that you know you messed up
because I don't think these are their pets. I think
these are some they've trapped, and they're not easy to trap.
I don't know where to look. All right, So have
you seen this robot go crazy?

Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
And the engineers get attacked by their own robot on
this head? See this all right, So let's let's see
what happens. It turns on them all right, So where
are they, Adler.

Speaker 6 (01:22:57):
They're working on their robots hanging there, you see.

Speaker 1 (01:23:01):
Yeah, that's how they put on that. That's that's finance,
exactly what you were thinking about.

Speaker 6 (01:23:08):
Okay, a long throwback four hours on that joke.

Speaker 1 (01:23:12):
Okay, that's a good callback.

Speaker 8 (01:23:14):
So this is a security camera, so it doesn't have audio,
so you guys are gonna have to fill them in.
You can see they're about to hit start on a
test and you kind of kind of see them look
at each other and be like about this.

Speaker 1 (01:23:26):
Yeah, picture of robot is hanging on kind of a
little mini crane and they're about to to activate it
and they're talking to each other and then they're going
to activate it and the arms to moving all right now,
the arm going what's out of control? It's completely no guy,
it's doing karate chops. It's doing karate chops. It's going crazy.

(01:23:50):
This guy is absolutely going out. They don't know what
to do. Somebody shut it down. Miss That was mister
mister Chin and mister me.

Speaker 5 (01:23:59):
So he's got it's it's got clips and it's hanging
like on your what like your collar bone, and this
thing is just his arms are going crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
Guys. You don't realize how hard that robot the wrong button.
This robot is slinging karate chops. I mean as hard
as he possibly can.

Speaker 8 (01:24:13):
They didn't hit the wrong button speed. It's not a microwave.
They coded it wrong. It's in the coding.

Speaker 12 (01:24:18):
You don't know that.

Speaker 6 (01:24:20):
You don't know. You don't You don't either. Might hear
the F two? All right, here we go. You can
look at each other instead of at five. That's funny.
He's should we give.

Speaker 1 (01:24:30):
You're turning on? Happened?

Speaker 6 (01:24:31):
It was just walking like a zombie and karate.

Speaker 1 (01:24:37):
Okay for blood? It really it's turning to people. It's
slinging it like a windmill. Here's the part I don't like.
To your point, speedy, it could have started going straight
out forward. It could have knocked tables over, it moved.
It's it's robot itself. It could seem to go after humans.

(01:24:59):
Did you see it? Bet you one hundred of them
could get a silver back. I would like to say this, well, y'all,
were y'all surprised? It's two Asian men that neither one
of them seem to know martial arts. They didn't. They
didn't even return fire. They've been working on robots.

Speaker 6 (01:25:13):
You can't karate chop a robot that's gonna hurt your hand.

Speaker 1 (01:25:17):
Well I thought I thought all Asian men were able
to bruce lee anything. Mm hmm.

Speaker 6 (01:25:21):
That's it's not accurate at all.

Speaker 1 (01:25:23):
Real good. No, well you're gonna tell me next. They
can't make sushi, y'all.

Speaker 8 (01:25:27):
Straight up, if that thing like wanted it was like
programmed to hurt and kill people were in trouble.

Speaker 6 (01:25:32):
That thing is hard to kill right straight up. Here's
another angle of it.

Speaker 1 (01:25:38):
Yeah, you're Brazilian. Jiu jitsu is not gonna help you.

Speaker 6 (01:25:41):
Here's another angle. It's going through flames to eat the man.

Speaker 1 (01:25:44):
It's really I'm telling you. But listen, y'all. Y'all remember
the day and I've said it several times, Gonna say
it again. Hey, people out there, listen to me. We
got robot trouble coming. Yeah, there's a robot trouble coming.
You can write that down, put a date on it.

Speaker 6 (01:26:01):
But RB bot, yes, yeah, have y'all not seen terminator
or the matrix or I robot?

Speaker 1 (01:26:09):
Yeah, it's the fact, y'all. Come on, will we come back?

Speaker 3 (01:26:13):
Good night?

Speaker 6 (01:26:14):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (01:26:14):
Look at that beaver we wrap up Big One, we
wrap up the weekend, and wrap up the day with
unscreened phone calls right after this, Hey, this is the
Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:26:28):
Unscreen phone calls, go ahead, Yes, this call is for Speedy.

Speaker 12 (01:26:33):
I've been watching some of the stay Ins games on TV.
I've noticed whenever the standands has got the ball, they
always show the video and audio the coach calling in
the call or during time out, they'll show the conversation
between the coach and the quarterback. And they just don't
seem to do that with other teams as much. You
know why that is?

Speaker 5 (01:26:52):
I do not, So you're saying on all UFL games
they seem to do it more with the Stallions.

Speaker 1 (01:26:58):
Is that what he said? Actually said, Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:27:03):
I mean I've I've been able to pick up some
of the games and I see that interaction. Of course
with the Stallions. I'm actually there, so I don't I
don't hear it. But coach Skip is he's really good a.

Speaker 1 (01:27:16):
Little bit to do. That's what I was going to say.
They're trying to do the best presentation for the audience,
and they may say, hey, Skip gives us a lot
more entertaining a lot of more entertaining stuff than maybe
a coach it's not as entertaining. Yeah, it may be.
It may be that he has a really good interaction
and relationship he does his players. He does and we've

(01:27:36):
had him here a few times and he's really good
on air.

Speaker 2 (01:27:39):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:27:40):
We continue Rick Bird's show, unscreen phone calls, go ahead,
Alan Taylor heats? Wasn't that gold? Wasn't that that was
one of the greatest That was you know, well, Bubba
and I and Speedy we and Alan Taylor was you know,
part of that other morning show that the guy was
just talking about on w QSB up in North Alabama,
And so we would we remember the mash when Greg

(01:28:04):
Burns burns each worms. It didn't rhyme, but we still
thought it would make Alan Taylor's life miserable if if
everybody he saw would say Alan Taylor each worms and
uh and it really it really picked up a lot
of moment he sure did. Uh we continue missed that one. Uh,
let's go to hello your unscreen phone calls on the

Speaker 2 (01:28:28):
Uh, yeah, I was. I was in the vox seats
this past week and I just wanted to call and say,
I appreciate how nice y'all were, and uh, all the
hospitalities home was really nice and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

So yeah, I like Greg, you feel good about that?
I mean, sorry, Speed ignored you. No, no, no, Greg,
you know I didn't know the over greader. He's over
there shooting the bull and scared and Speed scared him
when he walked.

Speaker 11 (01:29:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:29:07):
We continue. Just love people. And by the way they do,
these people that didn't show up today's breaking Speed's heart.
I want to go to their door. Rick, he used
half of his greed, right, Uh, what if it's like
the softball game we played the night I was actually
leaving and two guys walked up and said, is the
game over? Yeah? Man, you missed the whole game. Man,

(01:29:28):
we continue, Rick Bird show. It was unscreened phone calls.
Go ahead, good.

Speaker 12 (01:29:35):
Morning, boys, I need some advice here quickly. Sure I'm
talking to a girl.

Speaker 1 (01:29:42):
Okay, that's about right.

Speaker 9 (01:29:45):
Are you there?

Speaker 11 (01:29:45):
Respond?

Speaker 6 (01:29:46):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:29:46):
See yes, start over, all right, start over? Yeah, your
phone dropped out. You said, I'm talking to a girl,
and we lost you, so pick up right there.

Speaker 12 (01:29:56):
Okay, she's identical twin.

Speaker 1 (01:29:59):
Okay, not you, not yours?

Speaker 11 (01:30:03):
Goodness, Okay, I got the question.

Speaker 1 (01:30:07):
I think I'm being trapped or is a jerk?

Speaker 12 (01:30:09):
She said, hey, did you find my sister attractive?

Speaker 1 (01:30:12):
Careful?

Speaker 12 (01:30:12):
And I'm like, well, well, how do I How do
I respond to I? Obviously I do because they look
the same.

Speaker 1 (01:30:19):
I can't stand down the speedy speed. He's got this coming.
I would say, of course she is, you're you' all
are both beautiful, Yes, careful. That's then I put a
sharpie mark on her right right uh hand? Maybe so
they can't switch. Don't listen to speed? You said, Now,
it makes them sound like they're interchangeable. Greg, What were
you going to say, Well, that's what they do. Easy
do that? I don't feel good? Would you go? I

(01:30:41):
was just thinking, what if one of them and they
look just a lot, but one of them is a jerk?
One one's not there? You go? I wouldn't text that either,
But what what I would say? I would say, kind
of accommindation. She's kind of a pain adler. You have
any suggestion of cleaning dangerous?

Speaker 6 (01:30:55):
Okay, dangerous waters.

Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
I would say, yes, she's beautiful about both? Y'all want
to go matter of facts? Are you saying what I
think you're saying? This is terrible advice. Let me give
you a combination right now. None of what has just

(01:31:20):
been said should be said, which is just the two
of you know. One more looks just like I'm coming in.
Actually there are three are not helping you are not helping. No,
they're not. They're doing a great show, but they're not
helping you. All right, So I need to know what
to say.

Speaker 9 (01:31:40):
You say.

Speaker 1 (01:31:40):
You got to say yeah because you say you say, well,
obviously y'all look alike. So you know your sister is
a you know, is you know, a lovely lady. However,
I am not attracted to her because it's your personality
that I'm falling in love with. All right, how far
long it is that I'm attracted to you?

Speaker 6 (01:31:57):
Follow you?

Speaker 1 (01:31:58):
Do not do not act like you're attracted to her
sister in any way. Do not say anything that would
make her think that they're interchangeable. She's unique. Hey, she
may be your twin, but she's not you. You got
slightly bug tea. But y'all want to go there very much.
I do not text anything they said. At least they're

(01:32:19):
not joined like that that one on TV. Yeah, speak,
you're kissing her sister. She's just sitting there. Could be
when I'm married too. Try not to look. Now, are
y'all going down that road?

Speaker 5 (01:32:33):
Now?

Speaker 1 (01:32:33):
You remember that? You remember that? Of course I remember.
We did a whole thing about it the other day.

Speaker 6 (01:32:37):
Counts, Yeah, that counts.

Speaker 9 (01:32:39):
