smoking hot. So that's happening today.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
It depends on who you are, you know, if you
feel if the wheel is red hot, you know you
sometimes you might feel it's really cold and.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yeah, kind of like with you and then you kiss
a fish because it didn't land where you wanted to
do that. I didn't go anywhere near where you are
red hot.

Speaker 6 (03:00):
And its ice cold to others.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Oh, yes, it turned time, boy, it really really did.
Chin he's alive, okay it again?

Do you hear from your dad on that one?

Speaker 6 (03:18):
By the way, he's looking actually really good. I fed
him yesterday. He's eating with a fish is eating that's
a great sign.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
So you know that little thing in their chin he
had with his stomach or whatever. Yeah, I was looking
at that and even got, hey, don't feed him for
a couple of days. It'll work itself out. And I
know then we left for Labor Day weekend and maybe
that helped. Maybe that's what fixed it.

Speaker 6 (03:39):
Maybe it all cleared it out. Maybe maybe starving him
saved him.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
You know, there may neglecting it.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Actually, did you know there's a third option on the
wheel the some think it's hot, some think it's cold.
And then if your accountant, you can think it's too hot.

You can think it's too hot.

mattress in his room and Larry will be here. So
uh yeah, So that's today. That's today, and Larry and

(05:56):

of importance here, but if it's just yucks, I have
people at the house right now for dinner.

Speaker 3 (06:13):

Speaker 2 (06:16):
And I had gone up to Huntsville yesterday Dad had
a doctor's appointment. Got to see them. They say hey, yeah, okay,

So, uh, yes, that's it.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
That's challenge.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
So they'll be here. Adler again. I know Text Nation,
they're they're a bit shoot ready aim Uh. Someone asking
if we go right down about the Dicky conversation yesterday
and it says, have y'all shared the clip of Dicky
Nadmarre from yesterday? YouTube doesn't have the live show.

Speaker 9 (07:35):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I didn't see anything that that would have kept the
archive from being out there yesterday. I mean, I don't
think we made it clip of the day. We don't
really have a clip of that. But the archives there
isn't it.

Speaker 5 (07:50):
It was, but I'm now seeing that it is blocked
in in some countries.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Blocked in some countries. Did Dicky get us blocked in
some countries?

Speaker 5 (07:59):
I'm checking to see what, uh we have done yesterday,
play a song.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
I don't remember a song yesterday.

Speaker 5 (08:07):
Yeah, I'm sometimes a bed y'all the the bed from.

Speaker 6 (08:12):
My name is David. Yeah, that has a musical bed
under it. And that got us flagged.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
And that's what you're talking about.

Speaker 6 (08:19):
Let's played day after.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Day after day. We're not responsible for.

Speaker 6 (08:22):
That, right, and it's on it. It's on a commercial.
So what should be cleared?

Speaker 3 (08:26):
So I don't know.

Speaker 6 (08:26):
I'll check and see what's God clocked right now?

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Okay, but but in some countries is that including the
United States of America.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
I'm checking right?

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (08:34):
All right, Well, well, thank you Text Nation for letting
us know that. No, we're not trying to hide it.
A matter of fact, it was out there. I have
a hay bird today where that this is probably the
strangest Dicky Nab moment in Alabama football history. Oh because
as we predicted, not saying this is a surpriseous as
we predicted, the Bama fans have embraced him yesterday. Yeah,

(08:57):
they're they're sharing his view. That what you're saying. They
said he spoke for us.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah. Oh well I have some and just to be
totally honest, I have some Alabama fans that are friends
of mine that sometimes they get mad because they think, oh,
y'all tell what I said. But yesterday they were like, no,
this is the criticism is actually coming from the Bama fans.
They're the ones.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
We're right.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
I've had I've had Bama fans that have said, I
don't like the dicky thing. And I'm like, look, we
all are just cutting up. If we can't cut up
and have fun with stereotypes, then you're taking yourself too serious.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
I'm getting none of that, none of it.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
And it's discussing from them. Yeah this time, yeah, this time,
Like yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
Absolutely, They're like, that's right, right, said basically yeah right.
And and some people have sent me today I don't
know if y'all seen it. Not exaggerating, yeah not. And
I told y'all, y'all don't know our culture. We're from Alabama,
we know the culture. Some of y'all can't believe the
things we say that they could be real. People saw

(09:56):
sent me pictures of people selling their Bama stuff.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
All guys, guys, now, this is the fine game. The
fact that they did drop to number twenty one yesterday,
I think it's the lowest rank and I can't remember
how many years. That's absolutely concern and we have a
new number one.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
We do.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Let me get us.

Speaker 6 (10:20):
They have thirteen modern era national titles.

Speaker 5 (10:23):
Yeah, they should at least wait thirteen years before selling stuff.

Speaker 10 (10:27):
Here's the Rick Burges's Show.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
So let's row America. Speedy, Greg and Adler all here.
We're thankful you're here too. As we work through another day,
you miss any part of it. You got archives every day.
Catch those archives either on our podcast channel or our
YouTube channel. I hope you have subscribed to both. You've
got notifications clicked so you always know when something new

(10:58):
is there for you in the form of an ARCA
are a live event. So big, big, big, big, big announcement. Hello, Huntsville, Alabama, YEP.
One hundred point three the River. We thank all of
you for your support for the new show and all
your support of our past. You guys have always just

(11:18):
really been a very powerful, powerful part of the audience,
and you're also a very important part of so much
history in the space and rocket in research. And you know,
now the big announcement, if you remember, this was going

(11:38):
to come to Huntsville and in Trump's first term and
then the Democrats took charge and turned it back. But
now Huntsville, it is now official. Space Force is coming
to Huntsville. So here here is Trump making that announcement yesterday.

Speaker 9 (11:58):
It's a very important day, an important announcement with great
friends of mine. I think I can say this group
is every one of them I rate a ten. I
can't always say that even if they're Republicans, and these
are Republicans, great Republicans. I want to thank you all
for being here for this important announcement seven years in
the making. As you know, this has been going on

(12:20):
for a long period of time, and I am thrilled
to report that the US Space Command Headquarters will move
to the beautiful locale of a place called Huntsville, Alabama,
forever to be known from this point forward as Rocket City. Okay,

(12:41):
so Huntsville, Alabama. We love Alabama. I only want it
by about forty seven points. I don't think that influenced
my decision though, right, that didn't, right, But we had
a lot of competition for this. Alabama is getting it,
Huntsville in particular. So congratulations everybody, any congratulations Katie. This

(13:02):
will resulting more than thirty thousand Alabama jobs. And probably
much more than that, and hundreds of millions of dollars
of investment. And that's bidions, because it can't be millions,
it's bidions and billions of dollars. Most importantly, this decision
will help America defend and dominate the high Frontier, as
they call it. I want to thank Secretary Pete Hegseth.

(13:23):
He's doing a fantastic job. And Secretary of the Air Force,
Troy Mink Troy, thank you very much.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
So there it is.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Space Force Command leaves Colorado and goes to Huntsville, Alabama,
where Trump intended to be all along.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I can say I was in Huntsville when this was announced.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, that's big.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
I was up there to go. And they'll also play
a key role in building the Golden Dome, which he
talked about, and for the Mint's missile defense shield and stuff.
So huge announcement for Hunsel is about that big. Well,
just correct him. He didn't come up with the term rugget.

Speaker 11 (13:59):
See, I guess he's ever known as rocket city already
was yes, already from this point that guess you're saying,
as a nation and we know it is a rocket city,
but others might not well, what's.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Funny is is just those little sidebars from Trump only
these are.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Ranking ten.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
These are all silid Republicans and say that about everybody.
I can't say that about everybody Ilabama. Of course I
won that by what forty seven points or something like that.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
That doesn't do it right, right, right?

Speaker 1 (14:30):
And uh so anyway, so the big big news now,
I know, I know this, some of you already texting
Huntsful for those of you that are not familiar with
this part of our country, Huntsful is already growing by
leaps and bounds. It is, I mean, it is a
fast moving growing city and and everything around it.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
And some people are already texting, going, we can't take
any more people.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
It's tough.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
But but anyway, it'll expand and it'll absorb. And the
good news you don't have to add people do a
lot of these jobs go to people that are already there,
so but some people will be added, no doubt. But
that that's big news for Huntsville. So congratulations, well deserved,
and so glad to have that in our home state
as well. So this also led to which I didn't

(15:18):
know because we were on like you said, speedy, I
think we all were the same. We weren't really following
the news over Labor Day weekend. So you know how
sometimes you're on the you missed the front part of
the news, and you see a comment on something you
don't know yet. And I remember I kept seeing all
these comments. See, here's Trump playing golf, you idiots, nothing's

(15:39):
wrong with him. Here's Trump over here. Well what a
what a false narrative. I didn't even know what they
were talking about. But apparently some rumors started over the
weekend that Trump was gravely ill.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yeah, that he had died either died yes, yes, because
he took a couple of days off from doing any
pressors of any kind, and so everybody just assumed, oh,
he's sick or he's passed away. You have some politicians
from the left hoping that was the fact, which we'll
have to get to that. But Fox News is Peter
Doocey was in the Oval office yesterday and you can

(16:15):
see Senator Tuberville, there's heg seth All. The Alabama delegation
is all around because they just announced Space Force and
now they're taking questions. And here was Peter's question, how
did you find out over the weekend that you were dead.
You see that. No, people didn't see him for a
couple of days.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
One point three million user engagements as of Saturday morning
about your demise.

Speaker 9 (16:39):
Really, I didn't see that, you know, I have heard
it's sort of crazy. But last week I did numerous
news conferences, all successful. They went very well, like this
is going very well, and then I didn't do any
for two days, and they said there must be something
wrong with him. Biden wouldn't do him for months. You
wouldn't see him, and nobody ever said there was ever

(17:00):
anything wrong with him, and we know he wasn't in
the greatest of shape.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
No, I heard that. I get reports, now you knew.

Speaker 9 (17:07):
I did an interview that lasted for about an hour
and a half with somebody, and.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Yeah, so that was the big subject. It was hashtag,
you know, like you're saying Trump's dead or whatever, and
that just started going viral, and you had influencers that
are just trying to get likes and follows that were
then pushing the narrative and it became a little something
over the weekend. But I didn't see it because I
wasn't on the narrative.

Speaker 5 (17:31):
Is he's gonna die, He's not gonna make it through
this term or the weekend. The narrative is he's in
worse shape than Biden was. Yeah, which is insane.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
Yeah, it really is.

Speaker 5 (17:41):
And Tim Walls, like you said, speedy, he Tim Walls
was feeding this rumor over the weekend. Yeah, also hoping
Trump would die from the sounds of what he says
here at a union labor ed a union speech.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
You get up in the morning and you doom scroll
through things. And although I will say this, the last
few days.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
You woke up thinking there might be news.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Just saying, just saying there will be news sometime, just
so you know there will be news. What an idiot,
It's a loser.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
What an absolute loom line.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
So, in addition to this rick, there was also this
video that went viral of something being dropped out of
one of the front windows of the White House or
a window, and and and everybody's like, see they're not
they're doing construction of some kind, and they don't do
that when he's there. So he's obviously not there because
he's sick and dying.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
I even heard like there was a fight and somebody
threw something out a window in a fight.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Yeah, oh yeah, it's so bizarre. Well, well, Peter Doucy. Now,
the White House eventually, you know, released a statement saying, yes,
somebody did drop something out, there was work being done.
But Peter Deucy actually walked up to him in the
press conference with his phone and said, no, here's the video.
And Trump thought it was AI or something, because I
guess he wasn't there. Yeah, but then the White House

(19:05):
later said, no, that's real, but here's Peter Doucy showing
him the video. The press conference went really bizarre for
about ten minutes.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yeah, yeah, well that is I said this just in
the last few days talking about the times that we're living.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
And of course we've said it before.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
We have so much access because Sherry and I were,
you know, there were things we were trying to find out,
and of course we could just search and find these
things out relatively quick.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
And I said, it is great, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (19:33):
And I said, but unfortunately everybody also also has instant
access to bad.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Information, to false information.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
And that can that's readily available too, and trying to
discern one from the others sometimes crazy. Yeah, but sometimes
you got to use of walking around since yeah, and
on this one. I believe the president, being you know,
on his deathbed, would probably since he's.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Go out playing golf.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Yeah that one, there's video of him. Yeah, he went
down heal fast, didn't he.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (20:06):
Well, there you go to hear Democrats be concerned about
the president's health and claim that they're going to weekend
at Bernie's Trump Like, I mean, are you talking about
how they did it for four years with Joe Biden?

Speaker 6 (20:17):
Is that what you're talking about? Does that concern you now?

Speaker 2 (20:19):
All of a sudden, I remember, there's a sudden you're
worried about that scenario.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Yeah, they're the masters of pretending you're what they are.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Yeah, we'll be back.

Speaker 10 (20:28):

respond to this and for good reason. M the hearing.

love is losing their hearing, because these hearing aids will
bring them back into the family. It can give your

life back to you. You can interact and be back

believed all that you knew, all that you just couldn't
afford them. Well, now you can because we had an
e NT surgeon that said, you know what, I see
how many of my patients need hearing age and can't

(21:20):
afford them. I got to do something about it, and
he did. He now has the MD Hearing NEOL model
and it is over ninety percent less than the clinic
hearing age. The neo fits inside your ears, so no
one even knows it's there. Plus MD Hearing just launched
the Neo x S. This is the smallest hearing aid ever.

big announcement for Huntsville. We talked about that. Hello, Space
Force Commando was standing in that crowd that was behind
a press You should have been there.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
That had been also, I'd have been in an oval office.
That's been kind. Yeah, but you didn't know where I was.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
And I was there the.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Representing Hunschviale because you are the face of Huntsville, right,
But that's where your parents live, and you you're a
great son. You really take care of them and your dad,
who is of course blind mm hmmm.

Speaker 3 (23:00):
Which you took him to some of his appointments.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
I did. I did. I took him to the eye doctor. Now,
some of you might go while you're taking a blind
man to the eye doctor.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
I got that.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
But loves his eye doctor. And about every six months
they go and they check the pressure in his eyes
just to make sure we're maintaining the pressure that that
he's currently at with eye drops and and stuff like that.
And and so that was just yesterday, and uh so
I go on up and we jump in the truck
and we're headed there, and again I make fun of

(23:31):
him because he's blind, but he can give me directions,
which is really crazy. Uh. And and so we we
get in there, and and and.

go ahead and say it? Okay, get it? And uh
and so we we get we go sit down and
and first of all, I have to tell him, bless
his little heart, because we just love catching up. And
we're talking and he starts just telling me stories. But
he's in the he's in the waiting room, and there's
people like like literally left and right, but he's talking loud,

(24:03):
like we're outside like that. Just come just bring it
down just a little bit. There's people all around us,
and he's because he's holding cord. Now then you know
what happened, and you know we're echoing through everywhere.

Speaker 6 (24:16):
And I'm like, you just.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Bring it down a little bit. He says, Okay, okay,
he can't see who's all around that.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
If I was, if I was on the board, I
just I bring you yeah, yeah, And of course he giggles,
And I don't understand, honestly, straight up he has.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
His patience and and his just his overall attitude about
the frustrations of not being able to see the way
he deals with that is such an example of just
different parts of my life where I get really frustrated
and I'm like, my gracious, you know, look at him,
and he has such a great attitude about it. So
we go in and we get back called back, and

(24:52):
so here we come through and we have to announce,
you know, and this is my this is my go to. Hey,
I'm his eyes. Okay, so if you're if you so,
if you need something, uh, if you need something, just
kind of talk it out. Don't assume that he can
sit down and see that. Okay, you're about to get
the pressure in his eyes because he can't see anything.

(25:13):
And then you touch his face. He scares him because
you know, he doesn't know he can't see. And so
this uh, this sweet little lady uh brings us back
and she is gonna be the one that kind of
punches in. You know, any any medication changes you still
taking your eye drops and all this kind of stuff.
Oh boy, they just and uh, hey, everything going you

(25:34):
need it, you need to refeel Okay, we're gonna get
the pressure in your eyes, okay, and this do I this?
Uh well, and and so uh so she says, okay, well,
we'll let me get your glasses off. I'm gonna I'm
gonna touch your face and get your glasses off. And

(25:54):
so she takes his glasses off, and and he said, hey,
let me just tell you a story quick about my
glasses before you start. Now she's she's standing there in
front of him, inches away from his face, okay, And
and she's got all the little tools and stuff and
she's rolled everything over right in front of him. She goes, okay,
and she's just waiting, and she's she was about to
put the drops in. So she's got that in a

(26:16):
little tissue and she's sitting there waiting, and he goes,
let me tell you a funny story, because you know,
with insurance you sometimes have to do these zoom video
calls and go through these procedures for all this kind
of stuff. And so my wife sets this up, and
I've got my glasses on and we're going over the
fact that I'm blind, and she said, he said, And
then then the lady that's this kind of running the

(26:37):
call with the insurance company goes, sir, let me ask
you a question.

Speaker 6 (26:43):
And I'm sorry right now, and.

Speaker 2 (26:47):

Speaker 3 (27:06):
Right wait, you hear why?

Speaker 2 (27:08):
And and the black lady that's the technician that he
can't know that he can't see because he doesn't ask
people hey, or are you like or why? Or when
we're checking him sometimes it's obvious.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
I guess she's.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Standing there with his eye drops and and the tissue,
and she says, okay, that's great. And he wasn't just
why you wear him glass? And the way that that's
the way the person.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Talks you blind? You're blind, you know?

Speaker 2 (27:38):
And and and of course me, I'm sitting there and
now I'm uncomfortable. I just can't whiskers, you know. I
just for some reason, I get loud, and when I
get uncomfortab'll get loud. So how long you been doing this?

(27:58):

Speaker 3 (28:32):
You just did?

Speaker 2 (28:34):

you know, but I could. I was fidgeting around and
she looks over at me, and I just kind of grined.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
But he was.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
That's what the lady said, and that's how she.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Says how she sounded.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
Why are you wearing the glasses? Oh my goodness, that
he's black helping you?

Speaker 10 (28:52):
That just you know, here's the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
I think right now.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
I had no idea, and you need an oop a
loop a word dad.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Dad will come up with something.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Yeah, yeah, bullall, not that one. I don't think I
would use that.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
I'm just talking about the co word in general.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Just just hey, Adler, your suggestion not a great one.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yeah No, I was just thinking, yeah, well we just
about got through that without offending anyone.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Thank you for making sure that didn't happen, right.

Speaker 10 (29:35):
Uh, So.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
It's interesting, Speedy that you and I both had uh
doctor appointment episode yesterday and now this was just my
own doctor's appointment. You know, try to do better with
you know, were you dermatologists? Good to go see him
once a year if you have some real issues, maybe
every six months. Stay on top of skin catching. Skincatcher

(30:00):
can kill you. I mean, if you know it gets
out of hand, you do so, you know, So I
try to go in and there was something on my
shoulder that Sherry was all worried about, and it turned
out it wasn't any big deal, but we did. Why
I was there for my check up, a little something
on the nose. It was precancers, so I was glad
we caught that and they took care of that.

Speaker 3 (30:18):
But anyway, so I'm in the lobby.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
And I had kind of an odd appointment time, which
I prefer and meaning there's probably not a lot of
people there. And it's interesting they actually gave me an
appointment at noon. I thought that was interesting. But anyway,
so there was only there was only two people when
I got there.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Oh that is nice.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Now I knew y'all know me I'm always here to help.
But if I can avoid it, that'd be great too,
you know what.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Yeah, And you know right, I don't go seeking it.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
I don't seek it. I'm usually trapped in it, okay.
And and.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
So I knew I'm in trouble. I know I'm in
trouble the minute I come in. I know I'm in trouble.
I look, and God love her, there is a quite
elderly woman. And I really was like, where is her family? Okay,

(31:23):
because I mean she's she's not moving around real well.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Okay, maybe they dropped her off and we were waiting
in the car. Maybe.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
And so she's up there, walker everything, trying to get
the copey and all that, and of course I'm next, okay,
And and so and I keep looking at the other
window over there, hoping somebody will land over there, because
I know this is gonna this is gonna be a
minute hung up, and that's fine. And so nobody's in

(31:53):
a hurry, okay, because you know me, I'm never in
a hurry. And and I knew eventually what happened. They
kept asking her for the copay. She didn't quite understand
what they were saying. She didn't move real. Well, it
was like two dollars on some sort of medical voice
or weak voice, very weak and uh. And so I said,

(32:17):
is it just two dollars? And and and and so uh.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
To wait a minute, you're even hurrying her up.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
Well I didn't mean to. I thought I was being helpful.
You're helping yourself.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yeah, And she's like uh and she turns around and
I was like, now you're in if.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
It's just two dollars and uh.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
No, no, thank you though, thank you. And so then
she goes can I go sit down? Because she couldn't
stay up there enough to And then I realized she's
going to write a check. Oh, and I'm like hey, hey, yeah,
and then we're trying to get it and now she
couldn't and she goes back to the seat. This is

(32:55):
how long it took to go back to the seat
one thousand and one, one thousand and two, one thousand
and three, thousand and four, one thousand and five, one
thousand and six, one thousand and seven, one thousand and eight.
And I'm like, I'm really, god, lover, she's not real act.
You can't move hardly on ad y'all not agile? All
I was afraid you Caine or walk walker.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
She's in it.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
So she sits down and starts. At this point, there's
under no circumstance, can I can she keep having to
go back up to the counter.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
So I realize it's me.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
There's only one other person who is almost as old
as this person. I am by far the youngest person
of the three, and I'm sixty, okay, And so I
and I'm like, sty out of it.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Just stay out of it.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
You're gonna get pulled in.

Speaker 2 (33:42):
Stay out of it.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
But I was, but I started thinking I can't watch
her go all the way back up there again. And
so I saw her finally finish the check, and I said,
let me take that.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Up there for you.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Oh that's kind okay, And she goes, well, thank you,
and I go over and I get it and I.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
Take it up. You're just rushing her. He wasn't. He
was trying to help him.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
No, no, and and then and then so way. So
I was like, and I start looking around, like we
we have to help her.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
She can't. I don't think she should get that. I
don't think she can pull this off.

Speaker 8 (34:14):
You.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I don't know how she got there.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
And uh, and I was like, we can't keep and
I was like, there's anything else she need that we
need to take back and forth, let me just be
the runner and uh, part of gold you and and
then and.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
Then she was like the whole time, he's thinking, this
will hurry.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
And then she goes the way and then she goes
thank you, And of course inside I'm like, please don't
let the bist snack in that purse.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
And so their blood alone need a little name, right and.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
So anyway, so then could you feed it? So then
and so then it's almost like uh. And then it's
almost like you're like you ever been to out in
waiting rooms and it kind of becomes like you're in prison.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
What are you in for you? What did you do?

Speaker 1 (35:04):
And all of a sudden, so what are you doing here?
And I said just checking for skin cancer? Oh, and
I was like, I was like, I'm in, I'm in.
I'm afraid I've got can green.

Speaker 3 (35:19):
And I was I don't want to be around that.
I was like, let me show you.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
And I was like please, please please, and I said, oh,
I'm so sorry, and I'm so sorry, she said, and
and then I looked at and then of course then
I look of course to the the nurses, and I'm like.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
She said, I think maybe somebody should do something.

Speaker 6 (35:44):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
I don't know that we make her way for a
moment and I don't know, maybe we need to move
into it.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Should she just be sitting out here like this and
you don't actually work on that, right am I the
only one of her dang green? And uh so I'm
starting looking a bunch of attention and and she's just
and I went into the hospital with my golf playing
there and then and then before I knew it, I said, yeah,
you know I had my goll butter and I said yeah,

(36:12):
and I said mine was you know you didn't go
seft it? And before I'm full blown in now now
I know you to talk now here, I was being
very loud and uh, it's hollering yeah, because I was
like me.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
But then I realized, I got gang. I can't wait
for them to call my name because then I'm gone,
And yeah, you ain't quit pretending I care.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
And then no, and then I honestly thought to myself,
I'm gonna fool around and I'm going to get him
real involved.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
Oh yeah, you know one that'd be nice so you'd
have a servant's heart.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
That yeah, if he just did right.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
And I thought, I thought, uh, I thought, you know
that conference call at one is.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
In real trouble. Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
And I start reaching out to people right, and it's
so I'm like.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
Hey, guys, I'm gonna be a little late, a little late.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
I think to myself, I think I think I've done
I think I've done my part, right. I mean, I'm
and I said, and I said, is there anything anything
you need?

Speaker 3 (37:12):
I just want to see the doctor?

Speaker 2 (37:13):
And for him, you say, once you go ahead and
go in front of me.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
I did not, and had on one o'clock. But now
you have, you have touched on what my terror was.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
You know what I mean. Oh gosh, that's gonna bump
me back, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
I'm never going to take a lot of attention. I'll
never make that one, now, you know.

Speaker 3 (37:32):
And uh. And so so I.

Speaker 2 (37:35):
Asked her, if you need to go to the grocery store,
you'd be happy. He's known. No, No, this is what
I rush you through it. I know what I did.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
I said, do you have anybody takes you to get groceries?

Speaker 10 (37:44):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (37:45):
She is kind? No, not me, my brother, I'm going
to give you his sell but uh, because I got
a feeling that will never get you through the bogos anyway.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
But I was, I mean, I was like, who left
her here?

Speaker 8 (38:02):
Right?

Speaker 1 (38:02):
And uh and and I and so I went back there.
Well it's it's one of the things I couldn't get
on with.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
They came said, you know Richard, you know, and I
felt to myself, Gerty, I'm so sorry, but I have
to go back to get you know, to I know
you got you may have gang green, but yeah, it's
possible to have a mold it.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
Yeah, nice to meet you. Are you okay?

Speaker 1 (38:28):
And I was like ok and I just looked around everybody.
I was like, this is somebody helper. So then I
had to I got in there and the doctor finally
came back and I said, I gotta ask about the
woman and she goes, oh, yeah, we've got her in
the back and around. I said, dang Green and he goes, well,
just you know, we'll look into it. And I'm like,
so you.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
Can't no hip hop?

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yeah, And so what I did, because I started like
what I was concerned, I said, okay, so let's go
and get me taken care of because you got to get.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
To her, you know, and you got a one and.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
I said, I got to go on one to call
conference call. But I'm around if you'll need me. And uh,
but I got picture of me, you know how I
stru I got pulled. There was there was This was
the parking lot all over again. Oh yeah, and uh,
I mean I think I think this may be happening
to start happening, to be more and more, you know that,
you know, because I thought at sixty maybe i'd age out.

Speaker 3 (39:21):
No, we're still a lot younger than a lot of
other people. Yeah, you know what, right, And but but
I looked around and there was I mean it was
somes We're young. What do you think? Does how do
you think she got there? Do you think somebody dropped?

Speaker 2 (39:34):
It has to be somebody's waiting ride the bus?

Speaker 3 (39:36):
What I don't know? I mean, does she live by herself?

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Where you think? Age wise?

Speaker 3 (39:44):
She's at oh deep eighties?

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Deep? She had you have a driver deep eighties. Somebody's
out the outside. Got to show you the gang green
she she did? Are you so? I just said, I
I think that may just be swelling.

College football has a new number one.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
This hold still doesn't mean a whole lot, but it
means more than the first one. Yeah, yeah, but still
doesn't mean a whole lot. But here we go, sitting
at number one Ohio State. Ever the old Buckeyes deservingly so. Yeah,
they beat the preseason number one as usual. Being over
hyped again at number two Penn State. I know they're

(42:01):
always good, good football team, but they always underwhelm us
there at the end, every time, every time. Stage surprised
at l s U all the way to number three, moved.

Speaker 3 (42:11):
Up six six spots a little.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
I mean Clemson was highly touted, got beat ball as U.
Yeah number three again, Well, I mean you it'll work it, okay,
Yeah it will. At number four, Georgia hadn't played anybody yet,
not gonna play anybody for a while.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
They've got the schedule, they got.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
The powerful well they deserve it. They had a rough
lest they did well. Their schedule last.

Speaker 3 (42:41):
Year was horrible. It was terrible.

Speaker 1 (42:42):
But they've got the the overpowering Austin p this week.
Let's go pee, right, So they they got past Nevada.
Uh so anyway, I'm sorry, not Nevada, Marshall, Uh, Nevada
was PennState. Crrect me just a little sidebar here and
Dan Mullin at.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
I wonder how they did.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (43:05):
I think they won. That was weird, it really was.
They played like on Thursday.

Speaker 3 (43:09):
I can't picture Dan Mullin in Vegas.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
I know, I know.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
Miami moves to number five. Yeah, yeah, good team beat
notre to day Oregon number six. Texas only drops this seven. Yeah,
I can said that.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
You know.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
I heard somebody they didn't get hammered. I heard somebody
talk about this yesterday and they were absolutely right. I
thought the same thing watching Texas last year. In this year,
Sark is a really good offensive mine from between the twenties.
But boy, he gets real unimaginative and predictable in the
red zone.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
Uh, he's terrible in the red zone. His call playing
in the red zone is just horrible. Uh and it
has it has cost Texas last year and this year,
I don't know what happens to him when they get
in the red zone. I don't know whether he gets
two blocked or what what happens, But when he gets
in the red zone, it's like he hands the the

(44:07):
job of offensive coordinator to somebody else or play calling.
So but and I have noticed that too. I mean
some some of the they may have attempted the worst
tush push I've ever seen that. It was horrible cops. Yeah,
But anyway, if Texas can get the red zone figured
figured out, I think they'll be hard to deal with.

(44:29):
But their red zone issues, they've they've got to overcome that.
They don't look any better this year than they were
last year in the red zone. Clemson only drops to eight.
You know, these were all close games, you know, so
uh Notre Dame nine, South Carolina ten, Yeah, uh three?

Speaker 3 (44:47):
Yeah, they look good.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Uh and that's that's your top ten. Florida State gets
to fourteen, Alabama goes to twenty one.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
Yeah, and Florida State wasn't ranked, so they just they
flew in.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
I'm on, in is this one of those flash in
the pans? Did they have a great We'll see.

Speaker 3 (45:04):
Yeah, but they look at your Alabama.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
The Florida statetan needs to have a great year from
this point forward, because they'll go, hey, yeah yeah the
un l V they say, beating Sam Houston. So so
looking at it, I think all of you are right.
There's it was week one, so sore. There's so many unknowns.
Is Florida State that much better or is Alabama that

(45:27):
bad on defense? I don't know, Like I say, we
all said this, if malson Can has a quarterback with
the skill set of this quarterback he's always done well. Yeah,
so his offense can be a lot to handle with
a quarterback that can beat you with the legs or
the arm. So anyway, I don't know, but you know,

(45:48):
you know, that's one of those things you don't know,
like you know, you've ever had a loss in the
season and then the team ends up being really good
the rest of the scene. You know, wow, that wasn't
a bad loss, or you know, you you think you're
really good and then that team that you beat is
getting beat by everybody and you're like, oh wow, so
maybe that yeah, we're not really better anybody else.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
Everybody's beating them. We don't know any of that yet
I'm not saying that's too but that'll work. It So
it will, yeah, it will. And I saw the I
guess it was defensive coordinator for Alabama. I saw the
press conference and he said, nothing Florida State did surprise us.
We even the trick plays we we did. We knew
everything that that they threw at us. We knew ahead

(46:27):
of time. We just didn't get it done. And and
and the locker room is owning that.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
Tell me they ran the reverse end around twice and
it was one was for a touchdown other than for
a huge game.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (46:37):
Well, surprise y'all that even with with their losses, Texas, Clemson,
and Notre Dame did not fall out of the top ten.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
You know.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
I heard some commentary on that, and they said they
think a lot of it is because if you look
at the schedules and the other ones, Uh, they didn't
really play a lot of a lot of really you know,
highly ranked opponents, and so there wasn't a lot to
go against. Uh. And so you saw the teams that
won and were supposed to they kind of just stayed
around the same and you were either rewarded or you know,

(47:07):
if if you lost a close when you didn't fall far. Yeah,
and uh and Florida, you know the even any given
Saturday rick that y'all watched. When we got to the
Florida thing, I forgot last year how bad it started.
Oh ye head, they thought, man, he's not gonna make it.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
Well remember the crowd harassment.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
Yeah, and then they finished what six and oh and
win the ball game? Yeah? Uh, and you forget about that.
And they're sitting there kind of quietly at number thirteen.

Speaker 1 (47:34):
Yeah, so I say, text nation asking or they reigned
you speedy got it for you thirteen.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
So there's where Florida is. I forgot how bad they started,
about how well well they.

Speaker 1 (47:44):
Finished and how well they Yeah, well they didn't. If
they don't finish that well, they probably got a new coach.
You're right, Yeah, I mean they finished real well and
there and they you know, you said, they took that
momentum into this season, so we'll see how it goes. Tennessee,
you're at twenty two, Ole Miss twenty A and m nineteen,
Oklahoma eighteen, SMU seventeen, Iowa State sixteen, Michigan fifteen.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
And you know you mentioned old Miss. I didn't realize
it just seemed a little early that the SEC teams
are playing each other. Old Miss is at Kentucky. I
think we let's catch start all that.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
I was like, Wow, Week two, Yeah, well, I'm a
little let down.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
I needed a game like that because we had so
many good games week one, and I'm looking at week
two right now. I'm looking for where's the big game
this coming the weekend?

Speaker 2 (48:31):
Yeah, that's your ABC mid afternoon game.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
Ye.

Speaker 5 (48:34):
And then North Carolina Tar Hills take on the Central
Arkansas Bears next.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
Oh, definitely watching ch out good.

Speaker 3 (48:43):
Well.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
I saw Belichick trying to warn everybody. He's like, I
don't know. I don't think we're very good yet. I
think we can be. But we got seventy new players
trying to figure out who can play and who can
oh h Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
Forty nine ers.

Speaker 6 (48:55):
I was looking at basketball.

Speaker 10 (48:56):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Just wanted to share my experience from yesterday.

Speaker 1 (49:07):
I was busy busting out some extra curricular housework to
try to get a jump on some work for the week.
Because I enjoyed a super great Labor Day weekend with family,
got behind a little short week. I decided to take
the washable rugs out and give them a good cleaning.
They were looking dingy, probably because of the dogs.

Speaker 2 (49:26):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (49:27):
I proceeded to take.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Them outside, laid them out evenly to hose them off
next to the pool.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
I said, what the heck, I'll even fire up the
old pressure washer and make these jokers look real nice.
Had my raycons in listening to the best radio show
on the planet while cleaning these three throw type rugs.
I'm looking pretty sharp. While I was working hard, I
looked around and decided to touch up the cool decking
around the pool while I was at it.

Speaker 3 (49:54):
Got it all looking really, really good.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
It's nice to look back at something that you've worked
hard on and appreciate the excellent work you've done.

Speaker 3 (50:01):
Yes, I do know that. Oh goodness, I know exactly
how that feels. Daily.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
I then let the dogs out, and when I went
on with all the stuff that needed to be done,
washing some clothes, picked up the kids, got the rugs dried,
laid them out nicely.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
Boy, they looked good.

Speaker 3 (50:19):
I felt so good about this.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
I'd completed all this work, and one day I even
took some crap to good Will and reorganized the linen.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
Closet what a blast.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
I was getting ready for my wonderful wife to get
home and we'd enjoy the evening together. And then I
took a quick peek outside to admire my beautiful backyard
and nice pressure washing job. That's when I noticed that
the stupid fifteen month old male English cocker that runs
all day long and fetches a tennis ball non stop

(50:51):
for hours, decided to track mud and dirt all over
the pool decking. It looked it looked like the NASCAR
race had run around my pool laid rubber for five
hundred laughs. If I'd had a shotgun close by, it
might have been a rough day for him, Like old Yeller.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
Of course, of course I'm kidding, but you know what
he says.

Speaker 3 (51:13):
I mean, man, you can't even have a clean pool?

Speaker 2 (51:15):
Are you can't? What? He's proud of it? And he says,
how about this? What about this? Thinking? Got to get
the hose again.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
Hey, they'll complicate things, they will.

Speaker 1 (51:27):
They will have part of my driveway that's got mister
Buddy's paw prints in it where they had to pour
some concrete he got off in.

Speaker 3 (51:34):
It's been there.

Speaker 2 (51:36):
For years time. Oh yeah, when I'm talking, I go
right over.

Speaker 12 (51:40):
You know.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
The last thing he says is thanks for letting me
vent to you guys. And I think that's what we're
doing here with these What about the dogs helps people,
you know, and most of it are people who love
dogs and have dogs. But they're acknowledging that phrase, what
about the dogs? And what about the dog? If it's
just one, it just hangs over you. It does of
what you're doing, right, and what about that?

Speaker 3 (52:02):
And tonight Larry comes dinner for you and you got
three dogs.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
He's gonna be and he's bringing a dog because she
loves speedy. I've got a bed. I think we'll put
the dogs in the back and I'll let them at
least meet them. I would say, hey, look there, Cuddy, Larry,
Larry Cuddy, can I ask you, of course about dogs?
You hear that voice, that's a that's a big dog

(52:26):
right there.

Speaker 5 (52:27):
What do y'all do as far as influencing where they
because you outside, you let them outside to do their business?
Is I mean, are y'all doing anything to influence once
they're outside, once they're in the grass. Are you trying
to shoe them into us particular corner?

Speaker 2 (52:44):
Yes, it'll be nice.

Speaker 6 (52:47):
Do y'all, y'all mess with that?

Speaker 2 (52:48):
Did you just say go no?

Speaker 1 (52:50):
When when I was a dog owner, the last dog
we had. Now, I will say this, if you've got
the dog trained to go to a certain area and
a mother deer near he kills him by stomping him
right on the edge of death, he won't go back
over there anymore, you know. But up to that point, yes,
And what we would do if he tried, because he did,
he would try to stop and say, I'm not going

(53:11):
all the way down there to the natural area, and
I would We would come by and say, no, you
keep going.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
We don't.

Speaker 3 (53:16):
We don't do that here. And and he got to
where he would do it.

Speaker 2 (53:20):
We don't do that here, all right?

Speaker 13 (53:22):
We are like this, Yeah, keep moving my dogs right there,
even crazy Melly.

Speaker 2 (53:33):
They stay away from the house. They get off on
the property somewhere. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (53:38):
My dogs are getting so that they they can't hear,
so I can't go.

Speaker 6 (53:43):
I gotta like talk to him like with like.

Speaker 5 (53:47):
You know, like I'm an air traffic control person coming
in for a landing that and it's and really I've
gotten to the point where I don't yell at them
across the yard I just go up and touch him
like hey, I'm here, and then they'll like get scared,
like you surprised me. I'm like, buddy, I'm I've been
calling your name for a while now. But y'all, I
have a big, large backyard with lots of open space,

(54:10):
and for some reason, they they think that the play
place is their their place, their poop place.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
One step out using the bathroom. I won't back in
that kind of thing.

Speaker 6 (54:21):
They'll go to this house right here, and I seriously caught.

Speaker 5 (54:24):
I caught Franklin going dropping one at the bottom of
the slide.

Speaker 3 (54:30):
May have a great sense of humor.

Speaker 6 (54:33):
What what is wrong with those dogs?

Speaker 5 (54:36):
I saw Kevin in the little sandbox area underneath it.

Speaker 6 (54:39):
I saw Kevin starting to hunker down yesterday.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
I had to run at him, like dude. He was
starting to.

Speaker 6 (54:55):
Buddy, I've loved you for fifteen years.

Speaker 3 (54:57):
What do you do?

Speaker 6 (54:57):
You poop on my kids play place?

Speaker 2 (54:59):
That's unacceptable. Course they're day off.

Speaker 3 (55:01):
What can you do?

Speaker 10 (55:02):
Here's the Rick Burgess show, y'all.

Speaker 5 (55:10):
They took this guy, put him in overalls, and then
it looks like they've spray painted his entire body white
but given him a wife beater tan. So his arms
are super red, his body is super white, and he
just straight up looks like the white guy.

Speaker 3 (55:28):
All right, that's incredible. Is that a black man?

Speaker 6 (55:31):
That is a black man? Please watch this?

Speaker 5 (55:40):
He said a dance, y'all here, Okay, can't play the
rest of that. But now he's just partying with rednecks.

Speaker 14 (55:50):
That now we need to say him without it.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
On his lap?

Speaker 3 (56:08):
All right?

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Is there a way can we see him not in
the in the outfit? Yeah? Please please?

Speaker 1 (56:13):
I need to see he has given a woman cigarette?

Speaker 2 (56:20):
How did they do that?

Speaker 3 (56:21):
That's amazing, amazing? All right, let me feel and I've
seen that guy.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Rick, he's excited, he's holding up a three.

Speaker 6 (56:30):
This is what that guy looks like for real?

Speaker 2 (56:32):
No way, Yes, that's funny.

Speaker 6 (56:35):
And then there he is in in the attire.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
You got to give that goodness. So was it was
it a like a suit, a skin suit or something,
but just painted his skin? I think they just painted
he's actually fat, like he is fat.

Speaker 6 (56:49):
Yeah right, he's a fat guy, so.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
So that was his real fat. He's look the sunburn.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
That's when you were telling he's got a sunburn. They
actually put a sunburn and on their goodness.

Speaker 6 (57:02):
And it looks so real.

Speaker 5 (57:03):
He spits in the path of a black guy walking past,
and the black guy doesn't know he's a black guy
because he looks like a white redneck. And you know
that right after the camera cut right here, they had
to Yes.

Speaker 6 (57:17):
He's gotta don't tread on me.

Speaker 2 (57:19):
Tattoo fake, we've got sunburned.

Speaker 6 (57:23):
Gotta give it to him. I gotta give it to him.

Speaker 3 (57:26):
Yes, that's hilarious, funny. So there you go.

Speaker 5 (57:30):
This is like on the same level of what is
his name, Eddie Murphy? He pretended to be a white
guy for a day and did make do that?

Speaker 6 (57:38):
Did Nick Cannon do that too?

Speaker 2 (57:39):
Okay? Wow?

Speaker 5 (57:40):
I think I be wrong, but I remember Eddie Murphy
like getting on the.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Bus and jewish man.

Speaker 5 (57:45):
Yeah, yeah, and the bus drivers like what you don't
have to pay there aren't any black people around.

Speaker 6 (57:49):
Go ahead, you can take the magazine. It's okay, it's fine,
it's just funny.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
It was funny, good stuff.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
If you can't, if you can't laugh at stereotypes, and
you know yet, this is not the place to be.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
That was edible.

Speaker 3 (58:00):
It was that was all right.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
So we also have another story. Video nine where a
five year old Jacksonville, Florida boy wakes up before everybody
else in the family walks to Chick fil A for breakfast.

Speaker 3 (58:15):
And uh and the parents didn't even know it.

Speaker 2 (58:18):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
It has a happy ending, but they had to get
the cops involved. The five year old decided he wanted
to go to Chick fil A.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Oh boy.

Speaker 12 (58:24):
So we arrived on scene and as we walked in,
we see a little kid sitting at the table eating's
breakfast with one of the managers.

Speaker 2 (58:34):
Hey money.

Speaker 12 (58:37):
We asked where he came from, and he kept saying
he walked to Chick fil A.

Speaker 2 (58:40):
You know where your house is?

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Right?

Speaker 10 (58:42):
It's like, just keep right over there, okay?

Speaker 15 (58:46):
Cool?

Speaker 7 (58:46):
And I have children, and you know the first thing,
you know, you get that not in your stomach because
you know somebody else who's a parent is missing their child.

Speaker 12 (58:53):
Are you going to sell where you live?

Speaker 9 (58:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (58:55):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (58:55):
We gathered them up, what is that?

Speaker 2 (58:57):
Thank you for him.

Speaker 12 (59:00):
To the back of my patrol car. There no im
going to put you in jail, and we started checking
the ears.

Speaker 3 (59:07):
Everybody, where's your house.

Speaker 7 (59:08):
At We're wondering where did this child come from?

Speaker 2 (59:11):
Right here?

Speaker 7 (59:11):
None of these doors are open. None of these garages
are open.

Speaker 12 (59:16):
So then he explained that he had a white fence
right here, and that's when we pulled up in the trubway,
and then we realized that the call box wasn't working.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
We had no way to get through the gate.

Speaker 12 (59:29):
How about it.

Speaker 3 (59:34):
To fence to climb by.

Speaker 7 (59:35):
My initial thoughts were, I can't believe he came out
of here. It's the most secure house on that block.
In reference to having a fence all the way around front,
back sides.

Speaker 5 (59:45):
How do you think you got and Victoria.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
William?

Speaker 15 (59:53):
Yeah, a little boy, our five year old William had
an adventure a few weeks ago and we lived nearby,
very close.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
He was down at the Chick fil A.

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
No, we haven't in our police cartant.

Speaker 7 (01:00:04):
You could just see the look on his face. It
would be for any parent, including myself, it's disbelief.

Speaker 5 (01:00:09):
That's kind of scary actually, because we didn't realize what
was going on until after.

Speaker 6 (01:00:14):
We came out.

Speaker 7 (01:00:15):
Do you have any idea how he got out?

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:00:17):
Covered, but he's.

Speaker 10 (01:00:19):
Never gotten that.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
I was worried about him because was he scared? Was
he crying? Was he upset? Come on?

Speaker 10 (01:00:26):
Which is unusual for him, he was scared.

Speaker 8 (01:00:32):
I think it did shake him up some, so I
don't think we really needed to, you know, impress too
much that you shouldn't do it again.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
You could not. The mom's in disbelief.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
Did they assume he was in the bed, Yeah, said
he got up for everybody, so he never got out,
never un locked the door before.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
The mom's in a rub, going do what? How about
he actually recognized the game and.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
He didn't bring anything back for you mine? Right, you
could have brought breakfast top of the hour.

Speaker 10 (01:01:00):

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
What are you doing?

Speaker 16 (01:01:09):
Honor system? You cannot be googling while I'm talking. I'm
talking to these listeners who have kind of stepped up
their little sneaky game.

Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
You've been thinking about it? Is this because you went like, yes.

Speaker 16 (01:01:24):
Yes, this is right, and I'm just you know, and
I ran into somebody said I googled it while you
were talking.

Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
I'm like, that ain't really cheater, cheater.

Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
An honor system, hey, and of course anybody that gets
it right this boom. You know you've got a subscription
to Wisdom Harbor. Yep, we know that, ye, And we'll
talk more about that before you're done. If some of

some information you must discern if it is true or
is he just making it up?

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Here we go, okay.

Speaker 16 (01:02:46):
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, staged train
crashes became a surprisingly popular form of public entertainment in America.
These events involved two full sized locomotives being deliberately driven
toward each other on a single track at high speeds,
culminating in a spectacular collision. Promoters would build temporary towns

(01:03:09):
around the event, complete with stands, food vendors, brass bands,
and souvenir boots. Tens of thousands of spectators would gather
to witness the chaos captivated by the destructive power of
modern machinery. The most famous of these was held in Crush, Texas,
and was promoted as the Crash at the Crush on

(01:03:30):
September fifteenth, eighteen ninety six, and around forty thousand people
arrived to witness the spectacle. Despite careful planning, the event
went terribly wrong when the locomotive boilers exploded upon impact,
sending shrapnel into the crowd, killing and injuring dozens. Incredibly,
the tragedy only seemed to heighten public interest. Promoters learned

(01:03:52):
to reinforce the engines or stage the collisions with greater
distance from the audience, and for several more years, staged
crashes continued to thrill crowds at county fairs and expositions.
Is this BS or be true?

Speaker 7 (01:04:07):
Jamie, Oh wow, that's crazy, But I'm gonna say true.

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
It's true.

Speaker 12 (01:04:21):
I look at that.

Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
Look at that, man.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
I would go to one of those. Yeah, I would
go to one of.

Speaker 16 (01:04:30):
Those, the first demolition derby.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
Yeah. And the crowd took your life in their on hands.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
Now, if I didn't want to get killed by shrapnel.

Speaker 16 (01:04:38):
What I think about when I see an air show.

Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
Yeah, oh yeah, and I'm.

Speaker 5 (01:04:43):
Sorry you see that last week at the Polish Yes
sixteen crash?

Speaker 2 (01:04:47):
Yeah, I didn't see that. It was terrible.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Yeah yeah, uh, Jamie, I know that we just started
talking about things that are not so happy. But you
you should be thrilled right now because you get a chance.

Speaker 2 (01:06:45):
I told Greg that one time.

Speaker 16 (01:06:46):
In nineteen oh seven, the most unusual protest gripped France,
not over wages or hours, but over mustaches. Francis military
regulations required soldiers to wear mustache as part of their
official grooming, but when these men returned to civilian jobs,
France's upper class demanded the lower or servant class to

(01:07:09):
shave them off. It was demanded as a way to
more easily distinguish the lessers from their betters. This enraged
the workers, many of whom saw their mustaches not as
facial hair but a mark of masculine pride and military service.
When the upper class refused to back down, workers decided
to act. The result was the famed Grivdistance Mustaches, or

(01:07:32):
the mustache strike. Thousands of workers refused to shave, risking
disciplinary action and suspension from their positions. The protest quickly
garnered national attention and expanded, partially because of the novelty
and partly because of the broader labor tensions simmering across France.
Workers framed the issue as a matter of dignity, arguing

(01:07:54):
that they had risked their lives with mustaches in the trenches,
then they should be allowed to operate their their jobs
with them in peacetime. Ultimately, the upper class relented under
the thread of a broader disruption of the work they
certainly did.

Speaker 2 (01:08:10):
Not want to do themselves.

Speaker 16 (01:08:12):
Is this b s or be true?

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):

Speaker 17 (01:11:12):
Oh, low hanging through Yeah, well.

Speaker 3 (01:11:16):
Low hanging.

Fine, Oh my goodness. And you need to win, big guy.
You need to win. Okay, all right, and we got

Speaker 1 (01:12:22):
Matter of fact, we're gonna be quit with the buzzer.
You need to answer quickment. You need to know what
you don't. Oh my, Josh, it's Josh. Hey, Josh, welcome
to the show out of Birmingham, Alabama.

Speaker 3 (01:12:33):
Listening disease.

Speaker 2 (01:12:34):
E K Are you ready, Josh, sir, he's already googling.

Speaker 1 (01:12:41):
All right, Josh, do you want bizarre Middle Ages or
monopoly history?

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
Let's do bizarre?

Speaker 1 (01:12:50):
All right, bizarre? I knew somebody. I can't believe that
one the first one. All right here and I listen up.

Speaker 16 (01:12:56):
In eighteen sixty seven, two years after the end of
the Civil War, one of the most bizarre fundraising events
in history, took place in Saint Louis. An orphanage facing
financial hardship organized a public raffle with the grand prize
being live babies. Organizers believed this event would not only

(01:13:17):
bring in significant funds, but also provide homes for the
massive numbers of children who have been orphaned by the
war and might otherwise languish at the institution. The event
was widely advertised and drew considerable public attention, with thousands
of tickets sold. At the time, all of America was
grappling with social upheaval, poverty, and because penicillin had not

(01:13:39):
yet been discovered, a birth mortality rate of more than
twenty percent. Therefore, the orphanage framed the event as both
charitable and patriotic. The event succeeded in raising funds and
placing several children into homes, and it was a fundraising
idea that had several other orphanages copied that several other

(01:14:00):
from just copied before the federal government outlawed the practice
in eighteen sixty nine. Nevertheless, it remains a disturbing chapter
in the history of child welfare and is no longer
remembered today like it was seen at the time as a.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Clever solution to a problem.

Speaker 16 (01:14:15):
Is this bs or be true?

Speaker 2 (01:14:17):
Quickly? Josh, be true?

Speaker 18 (01:14:22):
Sorry, buddy, it's beIN comeba. Josh was was my Louisiana, Mounroe.

Speaker 3 (01:14:38):
I wouldn't count that w before it's done.

Speaker 2 (01:14:40):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not kill wow, just kidding everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:14:45):
Let's go to Terry and one of Andy's favorite places
on Earth, Auburn, Alabama.

Speaker 3 (01:14:51):
Uh, Terry to Terry, thanks for the call.

Speaker 16 (01:14:55):
He gave you a warror going Yeah, thanks, I don't cuss.

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
All right, it's down to you. You're our final contestant.
Then we'll have one left for the guys. Middle Ages
or Monopoly history.

Speaker 3 (01:15:10):
Let's do Monopoly history.

Speaker 16 (01:15:17):
Among the more than two thousand versions of the board
game Monopoly that have been released, including towns, even mine,
there's an Orange Beachopoly most major colleges, like Auburnopoly or
Rocky Topopoly. There are Monopoly games for fishing, golf, baseball,
and football teams. Now, however, we must have reached the

(01:15:39):
end of someone's imagination because we have ghetto Opoly. Buying
stolen properties, paying production fees, and getting carjacked, or just
some of the elements of the game. In ghetto Opoly,
the four railroad properties from the standard version of Monopoly
are replaced by liquor store. Other properties include a massage parlor,

(01:16:03):
an adult toy store, and a pawn shop.

Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
Hey.

Speaker 16 (01:16:06):
Now, the taxation squares are replaced by police shakedown and
carjacking squares. Instead of building houses and hotels, property owners
in ghetto Opoly build crack houses and housing projects. The
seven game pieces include a pimp, a hoe, a Colt
forty five tall boy, a machine gun, a marijuana leaf,

(01:16:28):
a crack rock, and a basketball. In ghetto Opoly, there
is a bank, yes, but there is also a loan shark.
If you don't have the money that you owe to
the loan shark, you don't go to jail. You go
to the emergency room. Oh is this bs or be true?

Speaker 3 (01:16:45):
Well you think, Terry God, I hope it's false.

Speaker 2 (01:16:51):
Sorry, it's true. That is true, And you can buy
one on look at there. You can buy it on Amazon.

Speaker 6 (01:17:00):
There it is.

Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
Oh, I'm gonna have to get one of those. We'll break.

Speaker 6 (01:17:06):
Look, you're on one of the squares.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
All right today.

Speaker 3 (01:17:19):
So one thing I wanted to bring up, so and Speedy.
I know you're all in.

Speaker 2 (01:17:23):
I'm about to start working on the the album cover
and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
So here we go, guys. It's going to be the first,
the first of hopefully many best of CDs for the
current show now you can go on Apple Music or
wherever you get Spotify, whatever. You can get all the
old Rick and Bubba CDs and albums. There's good Night

(01:17:48):
what twenty eight of them something like that, So they're
all out there if you ever desire to do that.
Of course, we have the Greatest Hits podcast too, and
that is available. But this will be the first album
from this particular endeavor. So do we just kind of
right out of the gate, keep it simple, and you know,

(01:18:09):
you just you do a simple name first time out?
Do you do something like how we start to show
every day? Is it simply here's the best of of
this year, and the title of the CD is are
you ready? And you put the new logo on the front,
you put the team picture on the inside, you got
the cuts on the back. Just go simple, colorful, and

(01:18:33):
then and then we can you know, because I know
a lot of you want us to name it something
to do with you ranus uh, but you know you
don't want anything that would make people to happen upon it.

Speaker 3 (01:18:44):
This said, I can't have that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:46):
I mean, you're riding in your car, you see that,
you know it's up there on your screen, and you
know and your your you know, your pastors.

Speaker 2 (01:18:54):
Like you know a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:18:56):
Yeah, and so so I'm I'm on things.

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:18:59):
Do you think just go real real, just simple like that. Yeah,
I do just a brand, you know, push the brand.
That's all right, nothing to do with those Now. Did
I think about calling it.

Speaker 3 (01:19:12):
New Squared.

Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
Ran by your mind? Briefly?

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Just for a second. I stopped and I thought about it. Yeah,
but but no, I don't think that that's really the
way to go. So, but we're how about this, like
I'm going to be talking about artwork today, speedies compiling
you know a lot we're kind of we're kind of
just you know, taking cues from you the things that
you want on there.

Speaker 3 (01:19:36):
And it should be a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Yeah, it is. That's always funed it down. It's a lot,
you know that we do a lot of content.

Speaker 3 (01:19:45):
That I thought about it. It's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:19:52):
See Yeah, somebody people want to call it patchwork. Yeah,
you know Birgers Show for CD.

Speaker 2 (01:20:01):
You know, you know, it's hard to capture kind of
Larry in one in one bit, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:20:07):
There's just been so much.

Speaker 2 (01:20:08):
But I don't know if y'all ever gone back and
talk and listen to the original like the first time
when he when he when we I wish we had that?
Did we play the we played the video of the voicemail?
We did, we did all that? Yeah, we did when
he was on early on, when it was just just
so real, it was something else.

Speaker 6 (01:20:30):
Yeah, texters are having some good ideas.

Speaker 1 (01:20:32):
Guys, No, they are not there. These are funny texts'
looking to add it. But I'm not sure they're good ideas.

Speaker 3 (01:20:39):
How about it?

Speaker 1 (01:20:40):
Right out of the gate, if it's your first release,
it should be called release your ainus.

Speaker 3 (01:20:44):
See, okay, we're not No, no, no, I don't want that.

Speaker 7 (01:20:50):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:20:51):
That's one of those things like all of a sudden,
your mom's excited about the new CD, Like what in
the world, what if we just put the picture of
that planet, don't put any words on it.

Speaker 2 (01:21:00):
Had figured it out.

Speaker 3 (01:21:01):
That's fine, that's it. That is the Moons of yours. Ye, no,
I mean four moons.

Speaker 6 (01:21:13):
Yeah, yeah, be Saturn.

Speaker 3 (01:21:19):
You're just a Saturn. Thank you. You're just throwing You're
just throwing gas on the So don't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:21:25):
I'm not going gas on your man. Here's another thing
I need to get some feedback on about that. Are
we even still in the world.

Speaker 2 (01:21:36):
Some people said, hey, Robert, of course that would be that,
but that was just Now that one's hard because that's
just that was just a comment.

Speaker 1 (01:21:45):
But but what I'm thinking, listen to and it's just like, hey, Robert,
how many people you look y'all be straight up with
me now, because we don't need waste. You know, we're
we're a fine old machine. You know, we're we're leaning mean, Okay,
stopped reading the text.

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
Stop it And they used the letter the number one
the first year.

Speaker 3 (01:22:08):
Right, so that's good.

Speaker 1 (01:22:11):
No, no, no, don't encourage this. But but what Greig,
don't don't say it's your favorite. Okay, so first one
not helping. But what I'm saying is how many people,
I mean, let's all be straight up now, straight up, Greg,
how many people in this streaming world still want a

(01:22:32):
hard copy of a CD? I have no idea where
to go, how much how much inventory get once they
took them out of automobiles, then I have everything tough.

Speaker 2 (01:22:43):
Some like to have it just for the memorabilia of it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:46):
But you know, yeah, memorabilia.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
Sure, whatever that word is.

Speaker 1 (01:22:50):
But by the way, by the way, some of you
you are being silly, and some of you actually are
being pretty pretty creative. The ocean front property available and
acres is funny. Okay, see that's that's a little more

(01:23:12):
clever than some of this other which sounds like, right,
that's not even the name of the planet.

Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
Okay, somebody's using the last. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:21):
Now I feel like that I've walked out and I
and there's like there's a bunch of little boys over
in the corner, and everybody's I guess what I'm both
to say, you.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
Know, believe in one so that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:33):
Until I see the artwork, until let me have a
look at the artwork, let me have a gander, let
me take a.

Speaker 3 (01:23:48):
Somewhere. Cotton eyed Joe's just saying, please, don't send.

Speaker 2 (01:23:50):
Us, don't pick that. So so you don't know if
it hadn't been forgotten that Joe, what do y'all think?
All right?

Speaker 8 (01:23:57):
Like you go?

Speaker 1 (01:23:58):
I mean, we went from the heyday of the CDs,
we would literally order five thousand and then it's a
streaming guy. We got down to like a thousand, and
then we got down to about seven hundred and fifty.
Then we got down to about five hundred. I mean,
I mean when I first started working here, and part
of my responsibility was dealing with that and these Walmart

(01:24:19):
when they would send them back and they woul show
up in palettes, we were trying to look where to
put them.

Speaker 2 (01:24:24):
I know, what to do with it.

Speaker 3 (01:24:25):
Was overwhelmed hard.

Speaker 1 (01:24:26):
Yeah, so I don't know, but anyway, we will have
it out by usually what the biggest shopping day of
the year, the Friday before Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (01:24:35):
Usually normally that's about it.

Speaker 3 (01:24:38):
So we're starting the process though it's time.

Speaker 2 (01:24:43):
No, no, but no, to your point, Rick, maybe have
some hard copies, but just not as much because they
don't nobody. It's all digital. Everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:24:52):
Everybody just liked, you know, having the artwork and all
that we.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Got the way we got it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:58):
Yeah, job would have been said, somebody had a good
would have had bits from the eighth grade.

Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
Oh yeah, Junior high review.

Speaker 3 (01:25:08):
Come on back to junior high.

Speaker 2 (01:25:10):
The year was not right.

Speaker 3 (01:25:12):
I got to cover art.

Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
So far we got one person that wants a hard
copy to see. Okay that you know that is pretty funny. Okay,
I mean I'm I'm not saying I know. Yeah, with
AI out there, I mean, we'll get some images now.
So I don't Oh my gosh, yeah, that's one hundred
percent awful. That's one hundred percent. That's one hundred percent

(01:25:37):
on you. Like, that's one hundred percent on you. Not
only don't want to know who took that pitcher. Somebody
needs learned to back up a little more.

Speaker 2 (01:25:46):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (01:25:48):
Listen, that didn't even soak it.

Speaker 2 (01:25:52):
We're not leaving one.

Speaker 3 (01:25:53):
No, it's like, don't put that's leaving one sitting. Listen,
now listen, this is.

Speaker 2 (01:25:59):
All on you.

Speaker 1 (01:26:03):
Okay, somebody if I had a parachute on my jump
right now from this ship and I would pull the cord.

Speaker 2 (01:26:10):
Clarity on that picture is the junior high first cut
never yelled in public?

Speaker 1 (01:26:22):
All right, So if you if you are a sitting
president with a sitting press, yeah, it is September the eleventh. Yes,
you are gonna throw out the pitch at the Yankees game.
Do you feel some George W. Bush pressure that you
got you better throw it?

Speaker 16 (01:26:40):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:26:40):
Yeah, because he, I.

Speaker 1 (01:26:41):
Mean, he's the walking doll presidents throwing it. Yes, No, yeah,
I'm very concerned.

Speaker 3 (01:26:47):
So it looks like Trump is going to do this
the trumpump.

Speaker 1 (01:26:51):
He claims he's thrown out first pitch you know, he's
claimed he's a great athlete. Now is he gonna throw
out the pitch? It simply says he's going to attend
the game. Uh, and New York on the twenty fourth anniversary.
Can I believe been twenty four years? Twenty four years?
And see the thing that throws me on that is
when I think about what a youngster Adler was and

(01:27:11):
here we were dealing with nine to eleven live on
the air, back on the Rick and Bubbi's Joel the Punk,
and you're just what some kid and that.

Speaker 5 (01:27:18):
Was a sophomore, Yeah, freshman or sophomore in high school.

Speaker 1 (01:27:24):
Twenty four years ago, you would have been fifteen six grade,
you would have been fifteen.

Speaker 2 (01:27:28):
I looked even younger. Thank you great. Yeah, right, it's
a good thing now though.

Speaker 5 (01:27:32):
That's the first time that I went home and I
watched the news by myself. Yeah, so it was a
big moment for me. Yeah, just to try to try
to figure out what was going on in the world. Scary,
crazy time, it.

Speaker 8 (01:27:47):
Was, right.

Speaker 2 (01:27:48):
Yeah, And to your point, Ricky just says he will
attend the game.

Speaker 1 (01:27:51):
Do you think he will throw out the pitch? If
you've got the president there for that. But everybody will
say I want to throw it as well as George W. Bush, right,
and we needed a good pitch when he threw it,
Yeah we did, we didn't and that he delivered.

Speaker 3 (01:28:05):
I'm scary time he's scary.

Speaker 5 (01:28:07):
I'm gonna guess that it's going to be a wave
from the stands type scenario that we've seen him do it.

Speaker 6 (01:28:12):
A lot of these other big sports.

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
Yeah, if I was his handler, I would say, everybody
sees George W. Bush come out during this time when
this really happened, and they're all gonna expect to see
something like that. And let's not put ourselves in that situation, right,
Let's just let's just wave, don't pull a fifty cent.
But but knowing Trump the way we do, I can

(01:28:36):
tell you this.

Speaker 3 (01:28:37):
He wants to throw. He wants to throw the greatest
pitch in the world has ever since. If he doesn't
think he can live up to that, he won't do it.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:28:44):
He'll may come up now now, He'll let you know
that he's surprisingly athletic.

Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
Oh yeah, I mean I don't know enough about golf
to make the call seem to be pretty good golf
so there's a couple of How about next year be
the twenty fifth anniversary of nine to eleven and the
Yankees are set to play the Mets on September eleven,
so that's at Yankee Stadium. The years jd Vance this

(01:29:11):
year will represent the administration at the ceremony at Ground
zero in Lower Manhattan. Trump did announce that he's going
to be at the Ryder Cup this year for golf.
It's going to be in New York September the twenty sixth.
He'll also attend the FIFA Club World Cup Championship. He
attended that in July. I should say, so he you know,

(01:29:32):
and he's not shy about coming to college football games
and all this. But so the announcing of hey, he'll
be at this game, it's not big news. But they
did say he will be there just because he always attends.
But this will be a lot more important than other game,
saying that it was eleven.

Speaker 3 (01:29:49):
Do you know how old he is here? Any idea
how long ago? This is?

Speaker 2 (01:29:52):
This is why we played this way back.

Speaker 5 (01:29:56):
Good night In two thousand and four, Trump invited to
throw out the first pitch.

Speaker 3 (01:30:02):
Yeah, that was two thousand and four. That is a
lot for the back, and I thought it was.

Speaker 2 (01:30:05):
How about he was set to throw out the first
pitch at a Yankees game in twenty twenty. Uh, and
then that got canceled because of the pandemic.

Speaker 1 (01:30:12):
Ah, so it's not a I don't mean his form
isn't great, but his velocity was pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
Yeah, he looked like a girl throwing.

Speaker 3 (01:30:21):
He got it there, bounce a bit of a dirt ball.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
Okay, but you know, so anyway, we'll say, you know,
it's it's interesting, speedy, and we'll see how it goes.

Speaker 3 (01:30:31):
We'll see how it goes. But you mentioned nine to eleven.

Speaker 1 (01:30:36):
One year from this nine eleven, something big is brewing
as well, involving this show. Okay, not this nine eleven,
but next year, next year, I mean something big, Okay,
something big brewing. Announcement coming likely just after the first

(01:30:58):
of the year. Okay, it's a big one.

Speaker 3 (01:31:00):
Get ready, getting ready, everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:31:03):
It's a big one, and so be watching. I'll put
out on social media a few little teases here and there. Yeah,
we're pretty substantial announcement coming opportunity. Well, see how that's
gonna be big news, Rick, look forward to. That's quite
the teas one of my neighbors down the street. He
served in the military, and as to a number of

(01:31:25):
my neighbors, and I'm very thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:31:28):
For wrestling him. Yeah, and Nike, Greg, we love you know,
hanging out the American flag and everything. And he said
that before nine to eleven, he was just living a
normal life, and then suddenly that happened. He found himself enlisting, volunteering,
and the next thing he knew, he was in Afghanistan
at one point, you know, and you forget how many
lives were changed, not only on that day, but just

(01:31:51):
you know, lives that were just living a normal life
and the next thing you know, they're enlisting and they're
fighting for our country and now it's been forever changed.
But it was just an interesting conversation about that and a.

Speaker 5 (01:32:02):
Lot of people my age, a lot of my friends,
my peers that did join the military. I asked him why,
and that that is the reason why they were kind
of right there at that prime age where patriotism was
it at all time high. Everybody talks about how shortly
after that churches were packed, American flags were everywhere, and
there was a sense of like camaraderie and brotherhood in

(01:32:24):
the nation that we haven't seen since.

Speaker 2 (01:32:26):
And of course it didn't last.

Speaker 1 (01:32:28):
It did not.

Speaker 2 (01:32:29):
And I'll tell you one of the churches were for
It wasn't It wasn't not a patriotism. It was out
of fear.

Speaker 3 (01:32:34):
Yes, think about fear always works. Think about that, It's
why God used it so much.

Speaker 2 (01:32:39):
Think, think, think about think, think about not think. I know,
I was just I was hearing myself saying it. And
then now look at who the City of New York
is about to Yeah to uh mayor, Oh no, he'll win.

Speaker 6 (01:32:56):
What's his name, DiBlasio just got behind him.

Speaker 2 (01:32:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:32:59):
Well, if if they elect this guy, think about that,
and they deserve everything that absolutely that that would be
so foolish, and you'll deserve everything you get. Going you
believe that this is even a conversation, Go ask all
the European cities that have done this, Go ash Michigan,
how this has gone. Yeah, okay, And if you want
to have New York Loo just like that, then go
right ahead. That'll be I mean, you'll regret it. Speaking

(01:33:21):
you got other choices, even you don't. You don't have
to vote for some stach conservative.

Speaker 2 (01:33:26):
But I mean, and think this way too. A lot
of people think, oh, it's New York. No, it's coming
to a city near you.

Speaker 6 (01:33:31):
Can we I got it ready to roll.

Speaker 5 (01:33:34):
This is the Blasio talking about free trains socialism. Uh
and he gets actually pressed on it from MSNBC.

Speaker 2 (01:33:40):
Yeah, and he runs that the.

Speaker 15 (01:33:43):
City of New York runs it, just like we run
so many other services. And the bottom line here is
to think about the free buses again. Free buses has
been proven to work in many parts of the country
where it's ill get your list of cities, but you.

Speaker 2 (01:33:56):
Don't know he didn't know. Yeah, everything everything.

Speaker 1 (01:34:02):
Yeah, walk right into that ruling class trap that's been
done throughout the world many times.
