Greg Adler, We're all back to the comfortable confines of

(02:02):
our own home studio. Here we are Big Face Studios,
ready to go. We're back. You know, I thought about that,
since we we overlooked a big face, why don't we
just name the studio that big money, big face Studios.
Funny it was one one time big studio. Now it's
big Face studio. Studio. That would make Adler's day.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
Well yeah, yeah, and uh, he forgot about mister Chin
yesterday had been fed in days.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
I fed him yesterday. I met him yesterday.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Since we can't see him anymore, he doesn't exist as
far as I'm concerned. I don't even acknowledge that we
could tell us anything. He could tell us that he
jumps in there and swims around with him. We'd go
out and he might. I can't think of the last
time I physically saw mister Chin. It's been a while.
He was just he just looked around the room.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
He didn't even know where the He's always right here went.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Yeah. I don't know what I did with this under
that box over. I just watched him. We reminded him
of mister.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I had to come up here yesterday, yes after the show.
That doesn't mean that don't mean fed him yesterday. That
means and also fed my home fish yesterday, so that's
good and all kinds of Hey, guess what fed my
kids yesterday?

Speaker 5 (03:15):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (03:16):
A lot of you go. You know, we openly say
here and I don't know if you're some of the
few people out there you still don't know about yesterday's show.
You're unaware of it. You haven't seen or heard the
archive yet. You mean to you're gonna You're probably gonna
get around to it. Uh, those of us that already

(03:38):
know it will once you've seen it or heard it'll
it'll explain our demeanor, as you know when you when
you go home and you get from the family. Well,
so how was work today? And you know you didn't
catch anhim? It? No, I mean I was. I had
a lot going on today. I didn't catch anything. Okay,
Now where were y'all? We were a big over? Oh okay, wow, okay? Interesting?

(04:02):
So wow five hours there? How did that go? Uh?
You know it's I said, when there you go, Greg,
you and I we well we all okay, to a degree,
we're all redeemed, renewed men in the blood of Christ.
Thank the Lord for that. But think about the times

(04:25):
that you have had to say this phrase. Now, they
got out of hand. Yeah, and that's kind of the
phrase that I have on yesterday's show. Oh wow, they
got out of hand.

Speaker 6 (04:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Boy, that escalated quickly.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
I think that. But I think I've had I'll read
y'all some reviews today on some Hey Burgess and there's
a number of reviews. Yesterday's program drew many reviews. Mom
even said, I'm not sure how she meant it. Well,
it's like y'all riding fun today. That was their statement.
Here's one from uh from Greg from Greg, you're your bride?

(05:01):
Oh really? In the family group text yesterday? Did you
catch that one? Yeah? I think I did.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Greg and Speedy you're probably in on it. Greg, you're
probably in that family group text. You're probably part of it.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Yeah, thank you for that, Adam. Okay, Greg and Speedy,
you need to be placed in time out. Okay. Yes,
she said we were having a lot of fun off
I mean just on camera, not realizing we're on camera.
We forget it, we get over there. There's some that
have a theory that Adler's removal from his booth was
it was a bit of it was a bit of

(05:34):
a game changer, it was, and for some reason, even
we unleashed him, even though it's not as high quality
as what we have here. For some reason, the tubers
seem to dig that really close, I mean iPhone version
of the show visually. I don't know why people seem

(05:55):
to It's almost like this is too polished, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's up close and personal. I can tell you that.
I don't think I've ever heard anybody say anything about us,
the four of us. There are times when you're when
when there's when when the professionalism is removed, the show
even gets better, and I'm like, when does this show
ever have professional Ye?

Speaker 3 (06:16):
When did that happen?

Speaker 2 (06:17):
I think?

Speaker 4 (06:17):
And here we're trying to be professional on the road,
it's like yeah, felling I think, yeah, oh yeah, I say,
we're passing.

Speaker 7 (06:23):
I think.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
I think. Also the there's an there's an intensity to
the fact that we were placed. It's one thing to say, hey,
they're live from a celebrity program, which we'll do. That's guys,
hang out. Hey they're live from some big event, a
concert of World Games, World Games? How about this a

(06:49):
big football game out in the parking lot. When you
say when this picture what you were if you heard
this in a conversation. Yeah, you know the shows on location, Mark,
Really where are they going?

Speaker 8 (07:00):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I think I have this right, big Oak ranch, and
somebody goes, what they're gonna let them do? They're bringing
them there, not just for an affair of two or
something to cut a few p s as they're doing
the show. There those two worlds, the seriousness of of
of that ministry and that that that organization what they
do is and the chaos in the somewhat irreverent attitude

(07:25):
of this show. I don't mean toward God, I just
mean toward appropriateness at times, you know, just social being
socially appropriate. Yeah, I think that added to it. And
it did, and intrigue and and that's and the and
you know, once once an hour, for at least three
of the five hours, you know, when Brody Krall, the CEO,

(07:45):
would sit down, we would just be quiet. And that
was the moment that he remind everybody while we were there,
And you would think it would keep us from going
right back to the chaos, but it didn't. It's almost
like the more he came in, the more it intensified.
And and I can't explain that, and I don't even
know what it says about it.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Frankly, do y'all always feel weird whenever we're around people
with like real jobs and like real normal people and
you don't like know what to do, like you know,
you just don't know what to do, like you almost
want to ask them, like, so how does a business work?
Like what what do you do in your job? And
then when they tell you. I always even just at

(08:23):
like parties or whatever, I'm talking to the dads at
like a kid's party or something, they they tell me
what they do, and then I have to say, like, okay,
so what does that mean, Like what do you actually do?

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Because I don't ever, we don't.

Speaker 9 (08:36):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
I've never worked or lived really in that world, so
I don't even understand what it is at all. And
did you all kind of feel like the people at
Big Oak where they were so accommodating, they were so nice,
but they were also glad to see us leave so
they could get back to their real.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Speed. And Greg interrupted a meeting.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah yeah, yeah, they were about to pray I know
where you were.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Adler on how you're you were thinking?

Speaker 4 (08:58):
Because we swing that that conference room, door open, just
having the best time ever, and then all of a
sudden we go out and there's laptops hoping and ye,
there's a serious conversation.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
And then we like that's a solemn spirit.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Yeah, yeah, back into reality.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Yeah, they do such important, important work there. They're like,
that was great, guys, thank you for being here, but
we're glad you're leaving so that we can get back to,
like our actual real job.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
And they couldn't believe how long five hours it was
a lot longer to them, I'm going to go back
to this. You ever had that feeling? And it's coming.
Here comes the holiday season where a lot of the
family has has taken over your home and they're everywhere.
They're they're in guest rooms, they're they're walking around the pajamas.
Something you never wanted to see, you know. You you

(09:45):
go out for that morning cup of coffee to watch
the morning you know, do you in the morning fog,
and they're there. They have a sleepyhead too, with a
couple of cos. Yeah, and these people have come into
your world and they're really infiltrating it, and you you
don't dislike them. They're disruptive and they've disrupted your normal routine.
To Adler's point, you know that feeling when the last

(10:06):
car drives out of your driveway and you're waving, that
feeling you turn around and go back in. That's the
feeling that is it is.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
That's exactly.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
Or they could just be really good people and and
be sincere and really have enjoyed us.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Well, I sincerely and sincerely loved my family. But there's
still is a piece when they're gone, right, right, we're
not really good people though what I'm saying, Yeah, we're not.
I feel a certain way that mean other people. Yeah,
I got a good point. I got some people enjoy
all that, correct, sincerely.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Yeah, this is the Rick Burgess show. Men Don't Run

(11:05):
in the Rain, the new book by Rick Burges available
no wherever you get books, all.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Right, updates on Christmas gifts involving that so Ironhill Press,
the publisher of all things Man Church, including the first
ever full length book, Men Don't Run in the Rain.
If you want a signed copy of Men Don't Run
in the Rain, and you missed it when we did

(11:32):
sign copies when the book first came out last May
or this May, I'm sorry this past May so if
you didn't get a signed copy then and you would go,
you know what, I'd like to give this as a
gift to Christmas, but I wish it was signed. You
can now, Okay, Now, it's just going to go through
December the sixteenth and then that's it. So that's the

(11:53):
cutoff because if not, we'll never get them to you
in time. So if you want a copy signed, I'm
about to start doing that again. Just go to the
Maanchurch dot com. When you see the book icon there
on the homepage. You know it's got a rotator at
the top of the page. When that one comes up,
click on that and then you'll see the red link
that says click here for a signed copy. So if

(12:14):
you want to sign copy, do that and we will
get those signed for you and get them back to
you in time for you to give them for Christmas.
So there you go, all right, So anybody, somebody just
said in text Nation, I think this is pretty accurate.
First of all, out of text Nation top five of
the funniest shows of the year. I think it's like

(12:37):
you got together, y'all get together and you play every
day at your own house, and yesterday y'all went and
played at somebody else's house where their parents are a
little more buttoned up, and y'all had to straighten up
when the adults walked in the room. Okay, so that's
a pretty good analogy right there. That's a pretty accurate.
So so anyway, a couple of things, can I say,
I guess Don Dae came to Bible study. He did.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
My goodness, this one here. Yeah, it's like he hadn't
had a peanut in his life, right. Yeah, he's the
happiest concern. He's the happiest little thing I've seen. Yes,
he has tore up so many I think the garbage
can might be full of shells.

Speaker 6 (13:11):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
It's funny because we were we weren't here yesterday. So
that's style that the day after the Bible study, So
this is now Gregg's day after the Bible As far
as the peanuts are geting.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
Yeah, there's two things on him that I've observed want
something and that is that is that's the peanuts, and
then the other is he went short sleeve and he's
regretting it.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
He's a little chilly. I'm not a little bit because
I knew what was going to happen because yesterday I
battled to get from the truck to here and it
was cold, and once I got here, it's gonna be okay.
And then when I leave today, like yesterday, kind of,
I was kind of hot. On the way home, I
was too. I had to put d a C on,
so I said, I know flannel was a little rough.
When I got out in the seventies that started the

(13:49):
same thing happened. So there get cold in here. Well,
no the airs, I don't think the air zone. When
the air zone in here, I went long sleeve. I
went long for the coup part of the day, but
very very thin. No undershirt today. And this shirt, for
some reason, the prominent nipples can't have no issue. It's
actually got the nipples. You get two nipple pockets.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Yeah yeah, the pockets.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Get those pockets on all your shirts you got. Yeah,
but some of the shirts I think will look weird
with two pockets on. But anyway, shirt would and say
this also offers greg when things get a little warm today,
the row sleeve, Oh yeah, road the sleeve come on.
So so anyway, some some things too, Yeah, that's that's good.
I got one like that, but it was dirty, but

(14:33):
I would have went that route. But watch watch this,
watch this speed. If you want see Greg struggle, watch
this right here. Uh so, just so you know, this
past Wednesday at the Wednesday Bible Study. The archive is
out there if you if you haven't got it yet,
Don Day will be traveling. I talked to Don. Yeah,
so he told you Drake going to be back for

(14:54):
a while. Don actually handed me the peanuts, which is
rare usually I'm known by them. And and just so
you know, his son is having like a California for
a Yeah, yeah, I tell him, you know, I mean,
I had pretty big deals to go ahead. Wow, Greg. No, No,
there was a moment. I mean the Bible Study was
what maybe two minutes from starting. Adler and Don Dae looked.

(15:16):
He didn't know that Greg was still he was done.
Actually got in his seat and held him the whole time. Yes,
he does held he help him for you. Yeah, that's awesome,
but he can go ahead, but if you wanted to Wow.
So he looked at and he saw Greg, and honestly,
I didn't want Donde to get up at the time.
He got it because we're almost ready to get started.
And he went over to Greg and I watched them
interacts good and to watch Greg try to transition when

(15:37):
Don was telling him why it wouldn't be here for
a while. It's something serious as his son having brain surgery.
By the way, be praying for Donde's son. He's uh,
I mean that that the tumor is not malignant, but
it's still a tuman that has to be removed from
the brain. That's not that's that's roughs very And to
watch Greg's face, because half his face was like, no

(15:59):
peanuts for be a month, that's not and then and
then and then the other side of his face was
I'm genuinely concerned about Don Dae. And I think I'm
concerned about it simply because his son's having the surgery,
not because he's my peanut guy. And that is true. Okay,
So we did discuss the difference between the size of
the peanuts and we had a little, you know, a
little mechanical peanut tal. Yeah, and and Don Dae was

(16:20):
a little surprised that you kind of like the ones
that he thinks you don't like. I know, they're pretty,
these are good. Okay, they're all good. The little ones
are good too, but they're just a little bit towards it. Right, Well,
I like them, Okay, I know you like him. Greg.
Is there any chance that you might check on Don
over the next month and say how are things going? Yes? Okay,

(16:45):
mark this tape, so again in January we can ask
Greg and be like, huh.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
Has it happened?

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Right?

Speaker 2 (16:51):
And that great? And your motivation cannot be I'm texting
when you're coming back. That's okay. That game, it's not
that cannot are taking this is all right? Yeah, you
being a bunch of jerks right now, we're not. We're
being You're being truthful. Friends who were being Yeah, I mean,

(17:13):
you know we love each other here enough till truth.
Y'all are incorrect on that, right. So you're cold. I'm
not cold a little bit. You got your arm freezing.
I don't mean I'm cold. Arms look sharp when I
do that. You tried to show by a little burgess forearm.
I said, you get looking up and you go I
gotta do something. I saw you rubbing your arm while
I go and you didn't know, like, come, you know

(17:33):
you did it. I'm like Green Bay Packers when they
played in the winter and don't bother me. Are you thinking.
Are you having to think one, No, it's not cold
in here? Well I no, I don't think it is either.
But I mean you sometimes you can be a little
bit in the summer. Is when it's cold in here. Greg,
where you sit in this seat? Right here? You get
this if I here, sit in this seat. One more shoes, Yeah,

(17:56):
my peanut, Yeah, sit in this seat. Roll off couple lives.
He's already grabbed. He cannot wait for ten seconds. Y'all
brought it up. I brought it up. Wait, yeah, he's
already grabbed. Listen, y'all can have some of them if
if you're jealous, that's fine. Great an experience them? Did

Speaker 10 (18:41):

It was real bad.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah, this is the rick Burgers show.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom. How many times have we educated and
talked about this. Freedom's not free. There's nothing free about
freedom at all.

Speaker 11 (18:55):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
And it's never paid for. We've talked about that a lot. Uh.
We've been reminded of that lately, haven't. Growing. Violence is
meant to shake us up, but it should only strengthen
our resolve to never back down. And that's why Patriot

In a world that has gone nuts, they are here
to well to point it out. The Rick Burgess Show,
thank you.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
For being here today. Uh as we walk our way
to another one Fox seats coming up a little later
on Burgess Ball Battle before we're done today. Unscreenphone calls return.
We did not do those yesterday. I think that was
a good call. Glovedabut Allen, but I don't know that.
I don't want to put Tavy Allen. No, that's too

(21:02):
much on him. That's a substitute teacher. The class would
have would have picked up pretty quick. We got a substitute,
what though. Yeah, if something gets on, it's.

Speaker 10 (21:09):
Like what now?

Speaker 2 (21:10):
You know? And that's on all you out there. You
are to be ashamed. I can't leave you all with
somebody else. Yeah, but I can't. It's so and so
we knew better.

Speaker 10 (21:19):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
Plus I think the show had plenty that made us
made everybody uncomfortable enough.

Speaker 10 (21:24):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Speaking of being uncomfortable, Uh, hey, I'm in the crosshairs
of the irs. That feels good, doesn't it. I'm not personally,
I'm just saying you might be, and and if you are,
that's not a great feeling. The largest collection agency in
the world and why they're calling you and they'll come
after you, and they can they can garnish wages. Now
the reason why I'm saying ten thousand dollars or more

(21:46):
in back taxes, Now this is not me. I'm not
giving you advice. But you know they're they're they're gonna
fish for big fish, okay, in ten thousand or more.
If you're If you're, if you you know that, that
means you're a keeper. Okay, using a little fishing analogy there. So,
so they're gonna, they're gonna you're they're not gonna let

(22:06):
this go okay, And they can garnish wages. They can
sell off your property. My goodness, I can put you
in jail. That's a big one. That's okay. So but
here's what you don't want to do, Birger Birds. You're right,
I'm gonna go. I'm throwing myself on the mercy of
the irs. Easy, don't go out there and start contacting
them yourself. You're you're you're in way over your head.

(22:27):
You need us tax Shield. They're they're lawyers and even
former agents. They can work with you to get this resolved.
They know the government programs that you may qualify for
to get you out of this at the lowest price
possible are set up. You know, a way to get
this done. Okay, so then you can have your your
life back. One eight hundred seven sixty nine seven three
four Oh. The Better Business Bureau says this about us

(22:49):
tax Shield A plus rated. Okay. Also go to Rick
Burgess Show dot com under sponsors you'll you'll find it
there too. Okay, So we we have a number of
things to discuss today. I know there'll be some references
to yesterday too. I do want to cover one thing
that I am getting a little bit because we're getting

(23:10):
close to the first ever Rick Burgess Show Best of CD.
Of course, the title for our first year are you ready?
You know? Were you ready for this? Are you ready
for this? And are you celebrating or concern that we
have actually been extended in new contract okay, which means
we're going to continue on. So understand that when Speedy

(23:33):
is producing and he is the producer of the CDs.
Understand he did that in the Rick and Bubby years
and he's doing it now. There has to be a
day that he goes, Okay, that's all I have. I
have to send this in and the year continues, right,
And so some of you, I think if you hear
something like yesterday, sadly, I even think the leaking of
the honey, right, you know some of the bigger moments

(23:57):
this year will actually be on next year CD, right,
because that's always been the game. And yeah, it's not new.
I just want anybody know that's not a new thing.
But because there's a day he has to turn it
in or you're not going to have access to it
for Christmas, really mid September on, it's like we have
to go with what we have in the pool prior

(24:17):
to that. Yeah, so I know some of you are going, hey, man,
now I'm really getting jacked about the CD. Well, remember
that's gonna be what happened on the show up till
he said about mid to late September. Yeah, yeah, so
after that that'll be on next year's seed it right,
And that's always been the case. But some of you go, oh,

(24:37):
I didn't know the behind the curtain how that works?
You know, he can't wait till you know, the last
show of the year then turned it in. Yeah, you know,
then y'all don't have it for Christmas or anything like that.
There's things to look forward to.

Speaker 4 (24:49):
You might not have licking honey, but you got Adler
and Greg pumping gas shirtless.

Speaker 8 (24:54):
You know.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
No, I've seen it. It was cold. I've seen the
cuts the two Sea d you and it'll be out
on streaming too. I've seen what what what we had
already done up to that point, and it's gold is
go from top to bottom. You're talking about me being
cold today.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
I was cold that day, Yes, but I thought if
you couldn't tell I was cold, if you had forgotten,
it was fourteen degrees that morning. So that's cold no
matter where you are, right, even even up for up
north fourteen fourteen code number the.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
With it Yeah, the own location audio back hair sa right,
he did. Greg. Sometimes also can be an issue, as
you heard, but who cares if it was, if it
was entertaining and funny, We'll pull some of that off
for next year's CD, no doubt, uh so, uh so,
and we we think, uh yes, my gay Breakfast is

(25:47):
on the CD. Thanks a lot, Thank you, Thank you
texting early. I might not have John Johnson, but you
got gay breakfas.

Speaker 12 (25:54):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
Thanks you greg Our bagpipe which injured injured demand yesterday
I did it injured. Yeah, here's another. Look to scroll
down above that one. They right there. This is out
of Alabama. They were multiple times yesterday. That nearly wrecked
my truck from laughing so hard. The entertainment value, you
know what he's making clear what we talked about, the

(26:15):
break Look, the audio value, the video value may not
have been the norm, but the entertainment value was ten
out of ten. And honestly, that's really all that matters
at the end of the day. I'll give you one
right here. Check this one out. Oh that's that's very
that's that's Do I read that. Oh that's something else.
But I know, but it has the word have the name,
it has the word cervical in it. Right.

Speaker 4 (26:36):
I have stage four cervical cancer. Most days my mind
can't cut off about of what's going on. Obviously, I
watch every day since nineteen ninety seven. Thank you yesterday
though made me laugh out loud. I know what I'm
going through.

Speaker 10 (26:50):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Wow, do you know in all the reviews and we're
very sweet. Well, Rank, thank you. And look, how about this,
Why don't we all as a team, now that we
know your situation, remember that that person off text nation
and and and say a prayer about that, because you're right.
When you got something like that that's just hanging over
you every day, Uh, it can take away your joy.
So I'm glad yesterday we were able to give you

(27:12):
us some laughs and take your mind off of it.
And and and and that's that's what we hope to do. Yeah,
we want to talk about things that are that are
serious to from time to time.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
And and you know, we want to inspire you from
time to time, which I know when you think about
the four of us inspiring people, but but uh, and encourage.
But at the end of the day, the number one
thing we want to do, and that's kind of been
our commitment. If you watch tell from Tales from the
Camp House of stepping into this new era and and
it's not a new concept, but and I will I

(27:42):
don't want to use the word return to it because
I don't think we ever fully got away from it.
Uh on the old show. I think we didn't do
it as much as we did in the early days.
We want to get back to it, as we do.
Want to make you laugh first and foremost, and uh
and and and and sitting here right now on the
eleventh month of this run, I do think that goal

(28:05):
has been at the forefront. And I hope you felt it, yeah,
because that you know, even when we're hitting on other
things that are not as much fun, they're just more informative.

Speaker 6 (28:15):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
You hope you've noticed we don't bury ourselves in them.
We kind of we kind of talk about it a
minute and then we move on. That's right, And now
well we take a comedy thing and bury ourselves in
that and not let it go of course. But but
but I think probably to a fault, probably to a
fault at time. But you know what, I'd rather do
that than than us do three or four segments, you know,
basically saying the same things we've always said about the

(28:37):
same topic. Yeah. Uh so so there you go. All right,
So look at that one there, that's the boy. They
just keep coming in. Thank you to oh my goodness,
losers about all of us.

Speaker 9 (28:49):
Yes, what did you say?

Speaker 3 (28:51):
The anxiety and depression one?

Speaker 4 (28:52):
Yeah, it says, I battle with that, but yesterday's show,
I completely forgot about it.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Praise we laughing the whole time. Praise God for that.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
Well, how about they tough up a little bit.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Oh my goodness, you're a terrible life coach. This thing yesterday,
way too much time, too much time with Greg Yesterday,
I just way too much. One more time, one more time.
I was just kidding. It wasn't just me. He got
to be in the room with the whole show, because
now he's behind the glass door closed. A lot of
people commented on that he was. We could have reached

(29:21):
out and put our hand on he was a big boy,
Yes he was. He got to come in get away
from the kids tack.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
I'm a big boy every day. But but okay, I'm
a big boy in life.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
But you remember that, You remember that time that you
were commenting with the when the adults were talking from
the kids table. Not yesterday, right, you got to set
at the big boy table.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
And something about him still being behind the camera and
he purposely wasn't showing himself.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
It's like he was just oh he still had But
every now and then, heed' make an appearance on on
the adult side. Of the table. Yeah right, and how
about this person? This is true, y'all said this yesterday. Wow.
I know it's a lot of scolding of the callers
while y'all were cranking out things that we do and
you scold us for it. No, we don't set a
good exime. And and I love No, look, we don't
set a good example. Yeah right, yeah, But what I

(30:05):
was saying is when we when we take these things on,
I mean, I hate to pull this card. We're professionals,
and uh, you know it's it's it's a different thing
when someone this is not your profession and y'all and
y'all try to see if y'all can walk these little edges.

(30:26):
I mean, you heard yesterday. We know exactly where that
line is. I will tell you this, and we talked
about it briefly yesterday. The text line when we first
came up, you know, I proposed it. I was like,
you know, how I do something. You know, we got
a very creative even if we don't mention yours on
there because it's impossible, we see them and we got
some pop. You really have to show they're really talented people.

(30:49):
Funny Yeah, yeah, because a lot of times in the show,
and that was like you had to think, was it? Well,
if we have email, we have callers, we have a
chat room. Yeah, but you know, we don't have access
to these things like you might send me a funny
email and I want to see it to the show's over. Yeah,
you know, you maybe have something funny you say on
the phones, but we never go to the phones while
you were available the text option. We get feedback right now.

(31:09):
And you guys have actually been very creative, a really
good job, you know. And I'm giving us some good
even I tell where they've helped me a lot things
that I didn't think of, and they like, I tell
you what you would be funny right here, and you look,
you see it, you go, you read it?

Speaker 8 (31:23):
You go?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Now, Yeah, I gotcha, I missed that.

Speaker 12 (31:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
So you guys have been been very very helpful.

Speaker 3 (31:28):
And as far as being funny, I mean I miss
all the time, but I get a lot of swings,
you know. And so yeah, there's a lot of pressure
on the callers because that's their one swing and if
you strike out. But also when we are trying to
be funny, I think that we are all trying to
be as clean as possible, honestly, but also as funny
as possible. So you got to find where that line is,

(31:49):
and we lean on the G to PG line, and
I think sometimes sometimes callers forget where that line is
and they kind of sometimes lean into a PG thirteen
or even like an R rating, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
Well, I'll go this far to the two zingers yesterday
were total mistakes. They were we weren't we weren't the
misspeaker what did I say? It was the bagpipe? The
greg wasn't trying to do that on the grocery store.
That just he just got the words from.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
And it says it on the building. But that's not
the name of it.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
It's not, it's not. I do think they need to
check that sign out though, Yeah, right on the new
on the store in Jacksonville. They doesn't have that. It
just But on the other side, I'm sure it's got
food on it. I don't think I'm probably probably still
should still shouldn't Johnson. John Johnson's prominent in the middle,
but on the both sides.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
No, No, that's a terrible yeah prominent.

Speaker 10 (32:49):
There you go again.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
This is the Rick Burgess show. He was told good

(33:20):
luck finding a job that would pay him to be
the class cloud Rick Burgess.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Sometimes it just all comes together. I thought about that
when I saw my fellow preloaders let me know they
were catching the show today. Shout out, guys, both those boxes.

Speaker 8 (33:40):
You know.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
One of the thing we talked about my run as
a preloader. It did not for ups. It didn't last
very long. And we talked about that. But and I
think a long time ago I may have talked about
this too. That job was shockingly complicated. I thought that
I was basically going to grab boxes and put them

(34:02):
in trucks. Period. I thought that's all there was to it.
And I thought, you know, I played the little ball.
And I may not have mentioned that, but I did.
And uh, and so I thought, I'm a big husky
fellow from Calhoun County. I can toss a few boxes,
you know. Well I got there and I realized there
were some guys who did that and what they do.

(34:23):
And I don't know if it's still done this way
or not. I'm talking about this is way back, Okay,
this is the this is the women. Was this mid eighties,
mid eighties. So there's the giant truck. You see those
the big eighteen wheelers double and they back in and
you pull those off and they're coming down to the line,
and then the smaller trucks are all lined up down

(34:44):
the conveyor belt. Okay, well, I thought I was going
to be the guy that's just pulling boxes off the
big truck and just rolled, you know, throwing them down
on the line, not throwing them easing them down on
the line, down the line. And so when I showed
up for the job that i'd applied for, I guess
I didn't even know what I was applying for. I

(35:06):
was being shown the three smaller trucks I think it
was three that belonged to me, and I was like,
excuse me, And I thought, well, this is even easier.
All I got to do is load three three of
these smaller trucks. However, I didn't know it was a
complicated system so that the driver, which I found out
later would would know where every box was on the truck.

(35:28):
There was so all of a sudden, They're handing me
these laminated, big giant posters and I'm like, what is
this and they're like, well, you need to memorize the numbers,
Like let's say that I'm not going to give your
address on the air. Let's say your address came off. Well,
your address has a load number, and I now take

(35:48):
a sharpie and on the box I write your load number,
which I need to memorize or else the belts moon
so fast you don't need to keep run over and
have a look at the chart every time. Well, now
that load number loads at a specific place inside the truck.

Speaker 4 (36:04):
You don't just throw them in there. So it's got
to be in the right truck. And because of their route,
it has to be in a certain order.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Yes, and by the way, they prefer that the number
be facing out where they can see it and the address,
which led to an incident.

Speaker 11 (36:18):
But so.

Speaker 2 (36:22):
Think about this. When one box one comes off, I
had to grab it, look at the address, either know
the load number or go find it on the charts,
and then put it in the back of the truck
where that load number is supposed to be. When I
keep in mind, keep in mind you may be one
box one place. In those days, retailers were still a

(36:45):
big deal JC Penny, which I had maybe one load
number fifty boxes, so I would roll through hundreds and
hundreds of boxes and having to do that on every
single box. Well, I wasn't prepared for that. Now it
feels a little bit like school. I thought it was

(37:07):
going to be me just putting boxes off the belt
somewhere wherever I wanted to put them, I didn't know.
And then of course there was an incidant. But it
was and this was not the one that got me fired. Strangely,
you would have thought this would have been the one.
The sleeping in the trucks will got me fired. But
you would have thought this would have been one.

Speaker 10 (37:26):
Now.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
I was still young and dumb, you know, and and
you know, had a little bit more probably inside my
blood was probably a little more something in vinegar than
needed to be there. You know. I tended to be
kind of ready for a rumble, you know, more than
I should have been. Okay, and let me be clear

(37:46):
on that this is not great behavior. And I had
a driver who got frustrated with me because he didn't
think I was loading his truck neatly enough. He thought
that he was probably I thought I was a little sloppy,
and he didn't like that I did have all the
boxes facing where he could see the number in the address.
And then that's the legitimate point, okay. Yeah, And I

(38:08):
was okay with that. And you know this evening happened
one time in radio. I don't have any problem with that,
but I mean, don't talk to me like you my daddy, okay,
or threatened me physically, Okay in those days, now I
would be a little more wide, more wisdom. I was
young and dumb, like I say, a lot of vinegar
and something else. And he came to me and said, hey, hey, hey,

(38:30):
you you you loaded in these boxes upside down today
where I can't see them. I'm gonna turn you upside down.
And I was like, well, now hang on now and
uh and and I say again, I had the box
about to apologize, and I put the box down. I said, now,
what did you say? He said, I'm gonna turn you
upside down and you're gonna see And I said, well,
now now we have an issue. Uh, if you're gonna

(38:52):
turn me upside down, you better go get some other
drivers because you don't like you man enough to me anywhere.
And then here we go. And so but I will
say this, Uh, I was not fired for that one.
I think they I think they thought that guy maybe
shouldn't have probably handled that way. Yeah, and look at it,
and it was on me. I could load Neider, but
I was I was about to be near to learning.
I was learning a little more grace. Grace would have

(39:14):
been great. Yeah, And but you will go to the
office though, if you if you threaten to rumble with
one of the drivers next to the conveyor belt. Uh
so uh, while he's still got his toile because it
was out that day, I have that towel and then
hang on. Yeah. But so so that was that was
a good run. But I want to tell you these
people that are doing that, it's more than just take
a box. Now, maybe a lot of has changed. Maybe

(39:36):
computers have them shared it have But maybe the days
of toting around big giant lemonading posters until you memorize
them and lead them up against the trucks, maybe that's
not that way anymore. Uh. But let me tell you
they getting after it, especially this time of year. Top
of the hour, This is the.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
Rick Burgess Show.

Rick Burgess Show. All right, So as we start the hour,
I mentioned in my glory days in the mid eighties
of a pre loading for ups, probably a picture of

(40:51):
me there at the Oxford location. But all right, so
just as we thought people are saying that, and by
the way, that that that driver they came home and
kind of threatened me. I mean, do he not know
I just held my own against air supply. Okay, the
must not know about you. But anyway, all right, so
there I figured this. There's some birds. Now the preloaders

(41:11):
they have like one of those guns, did you see,
uh yeah, and they scan it and shows right, we're
supposed to go on the truck. Oh yeah, come come
a million miles. Feel a little bit like a pioneer. Now.
So when'd you work two weeks? Yeah? No it wasn't, No,

Uh just under it. Okay, I think it was three

(41:35):
weeks and a few days. I'll give you one paycheck
twenty second. We got paid every two weeks. I got
two checks, yeah, one full and one not and so forth.
Looking back, how did I survive that first instant and

of it. They must have needed help bad, Yeah they did.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Florida Old miss it felt bigger, yeah, but now Florida

reason this time, we're riding around with Dabo Sweney. Oh

around with Dabo Swingey. Remember I told you were run
around with Kiffin. I told you it's gonna happen with Kiffin.

can't go to Auburn because you know he loves loves
tied too much that but you don't have to. You

(44:26):
may see him at Florida. Mm hmm. The Clemson days
are over. Wow, I had nothing dream I did. I
found my seven gagel Would that be a move up?
Probably lateral. I don't think it's just because of the state.
I mean, obviously the you know historic you know schools

(44:46):
that have all this. You know it's been a while
in history, right, But now with the transfer portal, I
mean it's just all different.

Speaker 6 (44:52):
Now.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Yeah, that's true. If y'all are wondering, if you want
to just kind of hang on things. I believe that
Kiffin is going to L s U and Dabbo's going
to Florida. Uh are you going? You dream?

Speaker 12 (45:02):
Now?

Speaker 2 (45:02):

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Ye? Wow, Greg, do you have another dream?

Speaker 3 (45:26):
No?

Speaker 2 (45:28):
All can aside? My vivid dream was only L s
U and Kiffin. The other two I'm just kidding a runk,
So you're serious about that. Other than that was a legit,
I'm not. It may mean nothing, but if you're asking
me the other two, I'm kidding around one hundred percent
had the dream. Now the dream may mean nothing, but
I did have it. That's legit. I'm just saying. I'm

(45:50):
just and when it happened just gonna freak me out
a little bit. I'm almost hoping it doesn't because I
did I'm at feel weird. Then I'm gonna think. Wow,
Now I gotta payttention of my dreams. More want's out
and some of them really strange. By the way, Rick,
you think that's not strange. It was kind of it
made out. It made so much sense when we were there,
I thought Lane Kiffin loved hanging out with us, uh
and we don't even know him. And then and then

(46:12):
my dream it all made perfect sense. He was like
digging hanging out with us. Ain't that funny? How dreams?
What if he said, come hang with me, but you
got to do an hour of hot yoga with me,
I'm out. I try, I don't, I don't. I don't
try to hang I don't want to hang with him
that much. You ever hot yoga's yes. Plus it's it's
got that Eastern mysticism. You know, I don't do that.

(46:32):
I don't do a cult stuff.

Speaker 4 (46:35):
I don't do one hundred and twenty degrees. You know,
I don't know one hundred and twenty degrees.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
I don't do that. And I don't worship false gods. Yeah,
there it is. You have to do both. About the
downward double dollars, try doing that hot.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
Okay, it's downward facing dog Gray.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
Don't make fun of this. You actually took hot yoga.
I remember that.

Speaker 3 (46:56):
I had horrible back problems and it really helped.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
And you always want to get in the back of
the room, which was on.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
No, I went to the fronts. I wanted to check
myself out in the mirror for my form, No, for
my form for weirdness.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
I want that goat yoga where the goat stands on
your back. I would do that.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
Yeah, there was a and we mentioned it. He played
a little ball, but he went and he was visiting
Oxford and on game day he did that hot yoga
class with Kiff and he said, some I forget who
it is. He's still in No, it wasn't, but he
said I almost three different times it was Marty.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Wasn't.

Speaker 4 (47:40):
It wasn't any of those guys or I remember, but
he just mentioned you said. He said I would have
literally no, he said I almost quit three times. He
said it's that hard.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
Yeah, I'm sure. Okay, somebody says, says, Rick, I know
you had a dream that Kiffin could take the New
York Giants job. No, not the dream we talked about that.
He don't want to go back to pro Yeah. No,
also one one that's just personally a big deal. And
if you're involved in these two teams, it's a big deal.
This Kennesaw State Jacksonville State on espn U. Yeah, Uh,

(48:12):
that's a that's a big game because, uh, we got
family going the win or wins the conference. Right, mama's going,
our sister's going. He's overgrown. Yeah, okay, you are, I
bet right there you're in the Texas Georgia game.

Speaker 9 (48:29):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
But theh so that it looks like it's gonna be
a really good crowd there, ye, because and this is
a this is ah is this for the Yeah? I
think there's the top of the conference. What somebody could
correct me on that? I don't know. What's interesting about
that is that Blake Burgess, my oldest son, his wife's

(48:50):
family are Kinnesaw people. And she even took some classes there,
or she might have gone colleges there completely, I'm not sure.
But so now that that makes classes there, well what
I'm talking about she's a dancer. I don't know whether
she like that's where she went to college and finished.
I need to ask her that next time we're together.
But I know that that her family lives there. Maybe

(49:11):
her mom can so she she catches the show over
there on YouTube. Maybe she can let me know. It
seems like that she told me she went to scooping
that boy Ricky all over. Well, buddy, you ever bring
something up, you realize halfway through it you have no
idea what you's every day. I didn't even know the
guys in there. Yes, some guy, Yeah, some guy. I

(49:34):
did hear the story. I just don't know who it was.
I'm going to breathe. You go as far as to
say an alarming amount of the show, is that? What?

Speaker 13 (49:40):
Ye right?

Speaker 2 (49:41):
Yeah? Yeah, I know I do it a lot. Yeah. Look,
I'm not afraid to jump in there and talk about
something I don't know I'm talking about and try to
really lean in at the grocery store along yesterday. Yeah yeah,
I had it, Parsley right, You know why, because that's
what everybody else in the world's doing.

Speaker 8 (49:54):
Now.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
If you can't beat them doing them, you know, let's
all talk about things we don't know what we're talking about.
Les be right back.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
This is the Rick Burgess Show. This is the show
that the world desperately needs, The Rick Burgis Show.

Speaker 2 (50:24):

(51:08):
a signed copy. Uh and if you would like one
that that opportunity is there right now. We do have also.
So there was NFL football last night and I just
was walking through the kitchen earlier, the shared kitchen, not
not our little snack room, and so I look up

(51:28):
at the TV. There's a TV in there, and I'm like,
who is that? I'm looking at the I don't even
know who it is. And then I see down at
the bottom, you know, patriots against the Jets. And I'm like, well,
I see, I see the Jets. But that's not the patriots.
And they had some kind of odd uniform on. But
but people are people are seemed to be digging in.

(51:51):
It's it's different. But but but why so it says
it's the no or Easter uniform. Now what about that
uniform makes me think Northeaster? Well, Greg, if you listen
to some of the things, it's storm blue. First of all,
you know there was such a colored ST's let us learn,
white helmets, white pants. There were six stars on the

(52:15):
uniform that signifies six New England states, a unique n
E logo on the shoulder of the uniform featuring the
nautical lettering and compass points of what of of New England?
Uh and uh. And then also things you couldn't see.

(52:35):
I don't hate that it ain't the patriots, but a
hidden message inside the collar on red fabric. Oh no,
this is controversial. We are all patriots? Can they say that?
I thought we weren't supposed to be patriots at the
racist At the heart, at the heart of the look

(52:58):
is a deep stormm blue Bay storm blue, rugged like
a shade of blue. I didn't know what was storm
greg rugged, weathered and worn in like a coastline after
a gale. Oh boy, somebody's overthought this haven a thing.

Speaker 7 (53:14):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
The color reflects both the unforgiving power of the northeasters
and the perseverance of all the people who face them
head on. And the Titans are gonna come out with
a flood uniform had the big flood, right, that's true?
Waves on.

Speaker 4 (53:31):
Well it worked, they won't what they're eighth in a row.

Speaker 2 (53:33):
They beat the Jets. So the Jets they're nine and
two right, Yeah, wow, Yeah, it's like that hasn't happened.
Oh there it is, are y'all? I think that's a
cool uniform. But do y'all have an issue when it
comes to this team should wear this?

Speaker 8 (53:52):
Now?

Speaker 2 (53:52):
Uniforms change? I did it at one time. Now now
that when Pittsburgh had on, when they go too far
back should make you may go way back. You shouldn't
look at it, and it make you aim. But if
you think about it, to be fair, they've had the
same uniform their whole existence. They really don't have a
throwback unless they go back that far well, one of
the yellow helmets and all that. Oh you're talking about
the Steelers. Steel Yeah, I'm ting about Steelers because New England.

(54:15):
We grew up with New England that had the Patriot
you know in the three snapping the ball, Yeah, snapping
the ball on the side of the helmet red jerseys.
They wore them the other way. Yeah, but they've been
in this. I remember when they went to the uniform
that they're known for now from the one we and yeah,
and I remember remember thinking, I'm not sure I feel
about this silver helmet. Yeah, I like the emblem back

(54:39):
because that's just call it that cartoon Patriot snapping the
ball was not a great emblem. It wasn't a great end,
but but it was. It was full of Patriot guard.
What about when they go back and they put that
uniform back on. Oh yeah, they wore it the other way. Yeah.
Are we okay with it? I am, It's okay with
it all. I remember that like a stormy uniform. I'm
not mad at it. Okay. It seems like it's overthought
of little bit.

Speaker 4 (55:00):
If it didn't exist, I would be okay. But the
fact that it's here, it doesn't bother me. As a
as a player. They always that they're all I had.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
It was kind of cool wearing it, you know, and
we again, and I'm all about I'm a capitalist, so hey,
get more product out there, you sell more jerseys, and
that's another revenue strand. I will say, if I was
just on a team somebody said hey, we're starting the
team and this was our uniform, I'd be pleased with it.
Stormy blue. Yeah, I'm I'm a little weirded out by
the fact that it looked nothing like the Patriots when

(55:29):
I looked at you when they said the Patriots are playing. Yeah,
but but like if my team, do you say, have
you singer uniform? I'd be man, that's all. That's just
that's what about them? Solid brown? When the Browns where
a little like something a dog left behind, Thank you,
Gret it does yeah, like a bunch of god.

Speaker 3 (55:44):
I didn't know what that is.

Speaker 9 (55:45):
Yeah, I got it.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
When they lay down and rub in it. I've heard
about taking the Browns to the super Bowl with this. Yeah,
taller does Franklin rolling it? Uh?

Speaker 3 (55:55):
No, you know, Franklin, you won't roll in it. But
Kevin had a streak where I would give him a bath.
He would walk back right back out to where the
cats in the neighborhood is when I was living downtown
and just plunge himself into it. I gave him a back.
I gave him three baths one day. Bath plunged, bath plunged.
And I'm like, well, fool me twice. Shame on me, buddy,

(56:17):
Sorry about that. And I had to give him three
bats in one day one time, and it like it
was in his collar, like he just send their shoulder, Yeah.

Speaker 10 (56:28):
Give me that.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
And I wonder, I wonder what I know. I know
they don't have the ability to reason, but what's their
play there?

Speaker 3 (56:36):
You know, I've heard that all perfume smells smell like
horribleness to them, and like poop and things like that,
like that's the world to them, that's the you know,
you get a lot of information from the some dead.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
Yeah, and what's the play there? Back? I do know
that when we we had an animal trainer on back
in the Rick and Bubba days, and he said what
Adler said, He's said, their entire their entire world is
their nose. Yeah, it's all smell to them. Yeah, but
but but but but but foul smells. But they do
say hello in a strange way. Yeah, right right. I
think I mean you say hello to a new person

(57:14):
at the office like that you're going to date char Yeah.

Speaker 3 (57:17):
I think if you smell like something dead, that's kind
of intimidating, you know, you just think you smell like
something dad like, whoa, I'm stay away from that guy.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
He kills stuff.

Speaker 3 (57:25):
I think their animal brains work different than ours.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
Not a bad not a bad look at that.

Speaker 4 (57:30):
I'm just guessing LoVa to just dominant, dominant, dominant, dominant.
I just want to hear I am and take me,
but smell me. Everybody you'd be like, oh, that's the
guy down the.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Road this, yeah, yeah, but why would I do that
to poop? Though? What am I saying there?

Speaker 3 (57:50):
I think poop smells better to them than flowerty shampoo
that we use on them as.

Speaker 2 (57:55):
What we know that's not the Is this the ultimate
uh visual of why when you break when it doesn't
bother you? Is it bothers everybody else? Okay? You ever
know whats that?

Speaker 3 (58:07):
Does it ever bother you?

Speaker 2 (58:08):
Though?

Speaker 3 (58:09):
You ever bother yourself?

Speaker 2 (58:10):
Not really?

Speaker 3 (58:12):
I'll bother myself sometimes. WHOA I've been even I'm offended I've.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Been more impressed, Like I think that's got a just
ant of orange in it. Oh, you know what I mean.
But I mean, I don't remember you go back, you
think work. I got to cut back on the fruit,
you know, But whoever's taking a bite of food, sorry
about that, But that is a strang phenomenon in it.
Your own doesn't bother you. Most of the time. Sometimes

(58:39):
I'll be offended, like, Okay, I know I'm aware that
I need to really assess my health. Yeah, I'm working.

in West Virginia very thankful they say that in what
they call it. Uh, And you know I got a
lot of ties there, so uh. But anyway, so I'll

(01:02:18):
get a chance to I'm not cold you're talking about really,
just say you wish you'd had more short sleeves. Okay,
just we're inside, but that doesn't matter. It's still cold.
And I can tell you a couple of times I
didn't do it all right, A couple of things to
look at. Did y'all know this? Mark Wahlberg, we just
talked about this in Wednesday's Bible study because Mark not

(01:02:40):
about wildburg but horses. I was getting to that, Uh,
you know, I have a I have a you know,
really I think healthy fear of horses. I wish I
didn't I wish. I know I'm saying, I wish they're
really beautiful and all that, but I don't want anything
to do well. They make God's resume. And so when
I was talking about that, on Wednesday. I was like,
I'm bothered that I'm not that I that I don't
really like to be around horses because they're they're a

(01:03:02):
magnificent animal, but they can be dangerous. Step they can
be dangerous. And the Wahlbergs now know this. They share
the health update for the daughter. Grace had a very
very two very scary horse riding accent. So Mark Wahlberg's
daughter Grace on the road to recovery the horseback accident

(01:03:24):
was frightening, uh and they He says, she is doing great.
She's already determined, which I always respect this even though
my bad experiences with horses actually gave me a different approach.
She's determined to get back on her horse good. And
she's doing great, and said Wahlberg. Mark said it was

(01:03:45):
terrifying when he heard the news about what happened. It's
a dangerous sport. She must be. She must ride for sport,
means she's probably must be really good on a horse.
But she's so passionate and so dedicated she's looking for
to getting back on the horse. He says, she's very
disciplined and she's following all the I guess the therapists

(01:04:08):
that are getting hurt through her injury. Man, so she
she is a competitive equestrian. Uh, and so so she
is going to be Okay, they're not giving us a
whole lot of details. I see here. They do think
she's suffered from neuropathy. I knew that was coming. It
surprised me. Can I give you? I want to give

(01:04:30):
I want to give you credit that because sometimes when
you have a good one, it's hard to wait for
me to stop. And I appreciate you doing that. It's
hard over old by I did it, and that shows him.

Speaker 4 (01:04:39):
This morning, I thought that tree behind for a second,
that's funny speed.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
Hell yeah, well I know, but I didn't know bony
tailor something.

Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
Well, yeah, I didn't know. Have y'all.

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
I've talked to y'all about how you know, you watch
something like gun smoke or something and they come riding horse.

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
You ever wish you could just come ride your horse
into the driveway? Wife, Hey, darling, Yeah, I don't know.
If I want to live in the world, I have
to ride a horse all the time. I didn't say, yeah,
let's not. God, Paul, come on in, baby, and you
rode in because you heard the ring in that dinner bell. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
here I come and you come on, and you's your

(01:05:20):
dusty ma'am, because you know, I know you look lovely
as the day is long. But out on the range
driving the cattle. Yeah, just got home. I'm a little dusty.
Pardon yeah, but the neighborhood looks just the way it does. Now.
Want you go right into the cal to sack, h

(01:05:44):
O is not gonna be happy? No, no, yeah, Terry
standing right there at the gate. Come on, ye, then
your dollars are gonna roll roll around with the horse leaves.
But but no, I would, I would. I heard you.
I see I see myself on that saddle. I see
myself in chaps, you know, and and chat. I can't

(01:06:05):
find a reason to word chaps.

Speaker 11 (01:06:07):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:06:08):
Okay, those aren't the sharp. I tried that one time.
They were like orange, yeah, and it didn't feel the same.

Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
It's my own chaps.

Speaker 11 (01:06:15):
I know.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
You do leather sadly, chaps, that's all you wear, nothing under.

Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
That's what I would wear those around the house sometimes,
and I bought them from from riding the motorcycle. And
I will say that leather pants are actually a better
choice than chaps for many reasons not being a cowboy.
I would even the chaps. You just there's just so
much he is still exposed.

Speaker 2 (01:06:41):
What did you do well?

Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
I never had I never had leather pants, and I
want I had buddies that would go with leather pants
instead of with chaps. We would go riding, and if
it rains, you're just entire let's call it diaper section
of your body just get soaking wet. I'm like, well,
this is the the entire purpose of this. This is
now I feel like I'm wearing these for the style
of it, and I don't want to be doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
The reason why I have chaps on as a cowboy
was the same reason that our dad had those hunting
pants for rabbit hunting. They had they were built in
on the front. They had a pair of those, Yeah,
those briar pants. And I want because I'm on my
horse and I mean lambs are hit me in I
mean we hades. Yeah, I love briar breeches. Yeah you know,

(01:07:25):
but add to your point, so drop the chaps, because
you know, I've always wanted to have a buckskin suit too,
so I should I should just ride on my horse
on my buckskin suit.

Speaker 12 (01:07:34):
I would.

Speaker 3 (01:07:36):
I mean, but I mean, chaps are a good look.
Here's here's a good example of someone wearing chaps for you.

Speaker 11 (01:07:42):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:07:42):
No, that's not a good that's a good.

Speaker 12 (01:07:44):

Yeah, yeah, that's what I Yes, there was a there.

Speaker 12 (01:12:38):

Speaker 3 (01:12:42):
Why is he standing?

Speaker 8 (01:12:43):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
I didn't even realize that I was there? Back up?
I believe that we that's a still shot of a video.

Speaker 3 (01:12:53):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:12:53):
Oh, I think I would and I think I would
look differently. I think I would like to dress to
ride my horse. I think I want to have on
what John bon Jovi has on in the Blaze of
Glory yea video, and I put a nice cowboy hat
with it. There you go, and uh, you know you
already got the beard. Yeah, I think you know. It's

(01:13:14):
it's you know, because there's certain I will say this
and this is going to upset Green and I just go,
I'm so sorry, and it may upset a lot of
the audience. And you know how concerned I get about that. Yeah,
I sometimes didn't think John Wayne looked as cool as
he needed to as a cowboy. I get it sometimes, yes.

Speaker 3 (01:13:29):
Back then he did. If you go back and watch
it now, you're like, wow, that guy's got a dad
bought and it's not good at acting.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
Yeah. Hey, the place, the horses, Henry the horse, Henry
the horses, Arabian something horse shot.

Speaker 4 (01:13:47):
Yeah that paint horses now you wanted kind of like
Matt Dillon's horse and yeah, yeah, okay, arguing one in
reddish ones like Secretariat.

Speaker 3 (01:13:57):
Oh yeah, that's a beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Uh speaking, I told you all this was happening while
I was on the show yesterday.

Speaker 8 (01:14:06):
But it is.

Speaker 2 (01:14:07):
It is official. My Christmas lights are up. And you
had nothing to do with it, not one thing. No, No,
I did too. I stood out there, man, looking at
them finishing, and uh it was. It was incredible. Look
looking at it finishing complete, and you completed the job
for a good job, kind of kind of hoping they
would finish before I showed up, and uh, you know
it was it was the big job. Well, let me

(01:14:30):
tell you, it's a big job. And you know, I noticed,
you know, there's I will say this, you know, because
it's incredible crew. And you know when you select the
one English person they can speak English, they need to
have a little more grasp on it. You know, it's
like they were something. He was cleared to be that guy,
and you're saying he really wouldn't qualified, right, you know how?

(01:14:53):
And this is going to get something from a maddler
here because these things make him really uncomfortable, like most
things do. Speedy, And you know you were the one
that said that I needed to stop saying when it's
dias to the to the people who cleaned the building. Yeah,
she knows.

Speaker 3 (01:15:07):
Hello, she don't have to speak.

Speaker 2 (01:15:10):
And you told me to stop doing that. Yeah, even
I think she actually you know that that brought some
joy to her. But why do we do that? But
I was gonna I'm gonna go ahead and tell you
what I did. And it's not gonna make you comfortable.
It's gonna be a tough moment for you. Adler. Greg
will love it. Speedy will also struggle. I pulled up
and of course they were in full You know, it's

(01:15:31):
it's an all day job and we we you know,
I worked pretty hard to getting those finished yesterday. I mean,
it's an all day job. A lot of light, very bright.
And uh. As soon as I saw them and they
had the lights going everywhere, I'm afraid, I said, for lice, navidad,
Now you did well, why why not just let them brief?

(01:15:52):
Hey man, oh I bet they went look at this guy,
Why would you? I wanted to say, marry Christmas in
their own language. Christmas, well, the Christmas lights. I didn't
know how to say Christmas lights. Police, Now do the
best you can do. Why don't you just say, you
know me? Thank you? Nobody? Okay, So now so now

(01:16:14):
i'm tanto. Yeah, well, I mean like, well.

Speaker 4 (01:16:18):
If you just keep it simple, you put lights up
goodh see. I don't think that approaches the well, right,
But if you get talking too fast, if he's done here.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
Huh, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:16:32):
Where they're like gringo loco, I will say, you're gonna
love this.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
Why they loved gringo. And this is what I saw.
The guy who was kind of the foreman, who spoke
some English. He nodded like impressive. So when they got
the you know, when they got there, there there was
they had a plug go bad, and and and of
course they begin to speak, and everybody's scurrying and ry said, hey,

(01:16:57):
what just are you almost home? I said, I am.
She said, hey, the Christmas light people said that we
got something wrong. They're having issues with a part of
the lights. And I said, I said, I'll fix that.
When I got you changed the plug in came out.
I said, me handy and uh and when I got home,
I found the breaker box and uh, immediately those of

(01:17:18):
us that are handy, you can spot, you know when
you got one that's this jumped out and I went, jumped,
jumped out and tripped and so what we call it
jumped out inside the handy con and uh, handy community
is right, I went, I went, I went off on,
off on, and the lights came on and I walked
out and I said, you auto and then at least

(01:17:41):
not be not I got bad news.

Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
You gibberish to them.

Speaker 2 (01:17:46):
Then if that breaker is tripping, you're gonna have you know,
they're gonna go that one. There's the there's a reason
why he fixed again. And I resolved that one too.

Speaker 11 (01:17:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:17:56):
I like John Wayne tripping it. Yeah, I like John Wayne. Okay,
just his acting has an age. Well, I John Wayne,
I love I love John Wayne.

Speaker 2 (01:18:04):
He's an American, not he's an American. Ently not a
good actor, not really no tiny face. But other than that,
I love.

Speaker 3 (01:18:11):
Nicholas, but most of the time his movie is are ridiculous.
I love Nicholas Kyah.

Speaker 2 (01:18:16):
Would you say he's not a good actor though, like
you said for John Wayne.

Speaker 3 (01:18:19):
Many movies, he's not a good actor. Nicholas case way
over the time. But I'll watch ghost Rider all day
long and on twice on Sunday. What a terrible dramice
on Sunday Sunday. And that's like a real sick movie.

Speaker 1 (01:18:30):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
You know.

Speaker 14 (01:18:53):
You gotta find.

Speaker 1 (01:18:59):
The voice in an unreasonable world.

Speaker 2 (01:19:03):
The Rick Burches Show, Go about it, America. Thanks for
being with us today, a brand you hours speedy Greg Adler.
All here we are back in the comfortable confines of
our own studio. The confines here probably a little tame
compared to where we were yesterday. But yesterday you missed

(01:19:24):
the program. Go grab the archive. It was it was
controlled payos to say the lead. All right, So as
we start the hour, the nation speaks via email. This
time email email, Hey.

Speaker 10 (01:19:44):
Bird, here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:19:46):
It's hey Birch, Hey birch. Guys, guys, guys, the show
from Big O' Ranch might be hands down the show
of the year so far, especially the last two hours.
What in the world did y'all eat to create absolute
radio gold? Please use the entire five hours as Saturday's replay.

(01:20:11):
Well done, all four of you. You know it's location
shows the quality of audio sometimes difficult, but who cares
if it's entertaining. So but so, I'm sure you will
hear some more of that. I'm currently working on it.
Speedy's working on it now. But thank you for the email.

(01:20:34):
Hey bird, this is actually a howdie bird, I guess
the holiday stranger. Howdy birds? Well, how did you use uh? Anyway?
My wife and I work at Big Oak Oh oh boy? Oh,
and she brought home some leftovers from today. Yeah, okay, yeah.
I looked in the fridge and I saw scone and

(01:20:56):
the first thing I said on controller was scone.

Speaker 10 (01:20:58):
I want to scone.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
Thank you for that that's now in my head, and
thank you for a good laugh yesterday. Okay, okay, that's
not all. It was not a bad sign, sure, hey bird.
Two things, two things about yesterday's show. Okay, first and foremost,
praise God for the people and uh in Big old ranch. Yep, agreed, agreed.

Speaker 6 (01:21:23):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):
Second, when Greg saw they put nuts on the cinemon rolls,
did he get mad and cry like he did when
his birthday cake had nuts on it as a kid.
I've gotten better about that. A little bit of you
did what I'd rather than not. I've been on it. Yeah, okay,
yes he did a little bit there, but I was fine.
Number three. I was taking a drink of very hot coffee.

(01:21:45):
I was driving when Speedy mentioned what he meant to
say about blowing on the bagpipes. When when that went south,
I laughed so hard that I suddenly realized how Larry
the patch Man must have felt when he spilt hot
coffee on his crotch. I'd like to say, so thanks
for that, Speedy. That's on me. I give it a

(01:22:09):
ten out of ten. He says, ten out of ten
on yesterday's show might be a candidate for best show
of the year. All right, cause him to be injured
by hot coll I didn't mean to. I'm sorry. No,
how many times have I said that? A text I'll
throw in. Look, since we're on this theme from Ryan Greenwood, Hey,

(01:22:33):
someone who has some expertise has been inside the Ropes.
I just finished the archive of the show from Big Oak.
First of all, Rick, before you have to say it easy,
I will say Rick Burger's show yet, and I will
include in that the three somewhat solemn segments with Brody Kraul.

(01:22:57):
It even worked in the camp. Absolutely, It's kind of
a point of the whole thing. Yeah, he said, I
want to clarify you did not have the technical problems
that set the tone, like when your y'all were doing
the Rick and Bubba show when he was part of
the team live from Memphis. That will still be one
of my all time favorite moments because of the technical problems.

(01:23:18):
But but this show started, first of all being wonderful.
I think because of Adler. I believe you neled it.
You said, when he's out of his box, he's reckless?
Yeah is he? And then the close back in the
box and the close proximity of the three of you
added flavor. I have never cried that many times during

(01:23:40):
the current show format, even though I've enjoyed shows prior.
This one had me down more times, and so many times.
At one point I thought I was dying. Okay, he's
got asthma?

Speaker 13 (01:23:54):
Good?

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
Good?

Speaker 15 (01:23:56):
Or not?

Speaker 3 (01:23:56):
Like good he thought he was dying.

Speaker 2 (01:23:58):
Yeah, you know what I mean. I got you, Hey, Birch,
I've moved around a lot in my career. I've been
a listener off and on for years, back to the
Rick and Bubby Show, obviously, and I've been pretty dedicated
over the past couple of years. And and he said,
I've heard about the good old days and the chaos
that would go on before all of you found your way.

(01:24:20):
Often would think how crazy and fun those days would
have been. Not proud of that. Well, thanks to yesterday,
I think I now fully understand a show that starts
off with Speedy talking about blowing a bagpipe and that
goes south a segment about boobies and ending with great passion.

Speaker 3 (01:24:40):
That was a woman's name. Was a woman's It was
a woman's name. That was not about It was not
about that.

Speaker 2 (01:24:45):
That was the that was the woman's last name.

Speaker 10 (01:24:48):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:24:52):
And you kept putting the ass on it.

Speaker 3 (01:24:53):
Yeah, and do you have if you have more than one? Okay,
if you have more than one, you have two? You
have that of them you do?

Speaker 2 (01:25:01):
And Greg's passion about shopping at Big Johnson. What more
needs to be said? Absolute Radio Gold especially while being
at such a special place as Big Oak Ranch made
it even seem more edgy, you think.

Speaker 4 (01:25:18):
Because they closed the door, we felt like when they were,
but then when they weren't in the room, we weren't
really there.

Speaker 2 (01:25:23):
If anyone have that isolation feeling, if y'all were to
decide to just do a CD that was nothing but
this show, I would literally go try to find a
CD player, which I would not even know where to
find one. Of course it would be on streaming too.
She'll be all right, maybe maybe please tell me there's
gonna be a downloadable version of this show. Love the show, Kenneth,

(01:25:46):
I mean, yeah, it's it's hard podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:25:47):
It's already there.

Speaker 2 (01:25:48):
There you go. It had to be so smart about
it to be well, you know, you had you with
that statement, but pretty much say well, I will I
will go this far, I will go this far there now.
And normally I've had people say, you know, talk about
there were a time we sat around discussed it, you know,
in the wonderful, wonderful atmosphere of camp House. Is there

(01:26:10):
even a need for best of any longer? Because you
can go find anything you want from the show on
the archives, and I understood that. People said, Yeah, but
I like pulling them all out speedy, doing that work
and getting them all bunched together instead of me having
to go find them.

Speaker 8 (01:26:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:26:26):
However, to your point, if you want a whole show,
it's already done. There's a downloadable version of it right
now on our podcast channel, and you can also watch
it on the YouTube channel. So, sir Kenneth, I want
you to know it's already there. Yep, you just simply
go get it. Nineteen ninety Greg, don't be on Kenneth.

(01:26:47):
I mean, Kenneth just told you you did a good
show yesterday. I think I think that's what he said,
because you're cold. I came from the facts, I'm hot.

Speaker 3 (01:26:56):
Came from Big Oak Branch to work to do what
we were just talking about. Took a wrong term, started
heading towards my house.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
That hurt bad. It was just muscle memories. Oh no,
And then you see the traffic, how bad it is
on the other side around nowhere to turn around? How
about I got home. I got home and I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:27:17):
Driving a ridiculous van.

Speaker 2 (01:27:20):
Is your daily automobile you drive thing? Yeah? To drive
that far probably shouldn't be in every day vehicle, but
it's a sweet yeah. I uh, I actually had to
go run an errand after I got home yesterday, and
and we live next to multiple schools, all right, so
we're in the same area over here where the studio is.

(01:27:41):
And so I come out and I felt I felt
so bad for him. Everybody was okay, nothing bad. But
we have this heel that that you go down and
one and one of the high schools. That's how they
all a lot of them go that way when they
let school out. And somebody, and my first thought always
as a cell phone, there was the teenager number one
one somehow stopped when teenager two, three, and four weren't

(01:28:03):
ready stacked, and they stacked it up. And I looked
in every single driver's seat as I was going by
when they were waving us by. Every driver's seat had
just a teenager sitting there, all of them, and I
saw the one who started it. And I don't know
why you had to slammer breaks on or what, but
how about this when you realize you're leaving school and
three of your classmates and you all just and they

(01:28:25):
were stacked right there.

Speaker 3 (01:28:26):
She probably dropped her phone. You know, you got to
your face, get back seat, you put your phone back
in your hand.

Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
And got it. Thank you for all the feedback on
you know, the chat room, the social media, the email,
text nation. It was it was one for the ages.
There is a struggle, though, I don't know whether I'm
proud of yesterday's show. Are just saying I'm glad you

(01:28:52):
enjoyed it.

Speaker 1 (01:28:53):
This is the Rick Burgess Show in a world that
embraces mediocrity. They are three the the Rick.

Speaker 3 (01:29:15):
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:17):
We are here and there's still so much more to do.
Unscreen phone calls. We'll get at one round of that
end before we're done. Fox Fox Fox Seeds are coming
up later though they'll be jam packed and we'll be
playing a Burgess ball battle that's still to come. Relief factor.
I love it. Already had my first pack today. Now.

(01:29:40):
A lot of you may know about neuropathy, A lot
of you may know about this. This is a this
is a really difficult thing. Tracy, an emailer said that
my husband is a diabetic and has suffered with neuropathy.
You got it. Some people say neuropathy, but neuropathy over
and over is in his feet for years. Earlier this

(01:30:03):
year he broke his leg. Wow, right below the ankle.

Speaker 7 (01:30:05):
Ouch.

Speaker 2 (01:30:06):
Now you can imagine due to the diabetes, he shouldn't
take I be profen, but his foot kept swelling. I
decided to buy him relief Factor because I had ran
out of other options at work. The swelling started going away,
and he's continued to use it because he realizes that
his neuropathy was no longer bothering him either. Well. Hell,

(01:30:30):
I don't have any scientific proof, but I will testify
that the only thing that we added to his life.
The only thing we added was relief Factor in neuropathy
issue is gone after two months of using it. So
this is powerful and it's all natural. That's the beauty.

(01:30:51):
This is another testimony that might be the day did
you say you know what? I gotta get that? So
go to reliefactor dot com. Quick start pack is only
nineteen ninety five. You also can find the link there
at Rick burgesshow dot com under the sponsor's button. All right,
so spid you made it through it? How'd you like that?
I was good? But okay, so speedy you put? I

(01:31:15):
wish you wouldn't do. You know this is a little bit.
I don't like the word trigger. I think we overuse
it a little bit. That triggers me.

Speaker 1 (01:31:21):
Trigger triggered.

Speaker 2 (01:31:22):
I'm triggered. I'm triggered. But I will say this. You
know where I stand when it comes to animal tacks.
Oh yeah, especially when it leads to human death. Yeah,
it's not good. I don't like the word grizzly being
in this story. Did you not care about me at
all when you laid this story down? Well? Have you

(01:31:42):
read it? Have you read the story? A Montana man? Okay,
I do see. We see what's going on here? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
that has links to white supremacist boy has been feeling
found guilty of murdering a man at a Montano camp
site and a brutal killing that was initially reported at
US a bear attack. Yes, oh, he tried to cover

(01:32:05):
it up. He tried to cover it up. Yo. Yes,
it must have been roast and it was a gruesome
bear A toon. I'm putting that they couldn't figure out
how the bear shot him. Twice. Investigators have linked now
Darren Christopher Abbey guilty of fatally attacking dusting something with

(01:32:27):
an axe, a block of wood, and a screwdriver. Good
gracious that reason After blamed it on a bar after
they met at a campsite near Big Sky, Montana. I
like each other, evidently I just met.

Speaker 4 (01:32:43):
Hey, wow, and how about this? They found DNA on
a beer can that had him inside the man's tent
after he you know, was claiming other things.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
They had a bunch of holes in the story. Well,
he was claiming that it was done in self defense
after he realized the bear thing went open, right right.
I should have went with that one first. Yeah, they
didn't interview of course, bear activist Smoky, who says this
is a scar on the bear community. Once again we've
been stereotyped is being guilty of attacking and killing humans

(01:33:17):
when really it was a white supremacist. So they tried
to blame it all. Tried to go, yeah, well nice
a bear attack. You know what about the old bar attack? No,
the real ones. I don't want to know. Did y'all
see was it Gatlinburg?

Speaker 4 (01:33:31):
I know this is in breaking news, but one was
just strolling down the middle of the street, shops all
around his big old black bar, got.

Speaker 2 (01:33:38):
A bag attack in left things. He's a bar, he's
a bar.

Speaker 4 (01:33:42):
But you know, you see them and then they're out
in the wild and you really can't go, Okay, how
big is it? But when it's just going down like
the street and you see like shops, and you can
kind of really size it up and go, I think
it's huge.

Speaker 3 (01:33:55):
Oh I didn't see that. This is the first I'm
seeing this. That's bigger than I thought it would be.

Speaker 2 (01:34:01):
To be in town.

Speaker 3 (01:34:02):
There's people right there. What are idiots?

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
What are y'all doing? Gosh, that's in Gatlinburg. Look at that.

Speaker 3 (01:34:08):
Yeah, across walk he's he's walking across.

Speaker 2 (01:34:11):
The the way. Yield to him, I said, yield to
bears and crosswalk. Look at nobody cares. Oh, he's going
into Ripley's believe it or not, he is. Did y'all
say that, lady walk? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:34:25):
Like hello, man, that's a real bear. That's not like
a stuffed bear.

Speaker 2 (01:34:28):
I want you just keep walking. Why are people doing that?
Did they think if they could trigger his attack? Nobody cares?
They should care though, to your point, Greg, they even
stopped let him cross or Adler. Yeah. And then there's
another one.

Speaker 4 (01:34:42):
I believe it's at maybe at dinner time or at night,
and it's a little bit bigger than that one.

Speaker 2 (01:34:48):
But that that's not small.

Speaker 8 (01:34:49):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:34:50):
You know when he goes through the arcade, is he
about to ride the skyt I think he didn't want
to walk back up where he lives. Yeah, he's taking
the skytram. Yeah. Look at this lady right here.

Speaker 3 (01:35:00):
He doesn't care. Man, the bears behind you by like
ten feet.

Speaker 2 (01:35:03):
Do they think that was a halloween all right? Uh?
Did they think that was a halloween costume and somebody
was just good? It's a good costume. They think they
don't train? No, they don't even look at it. Do
they think this is a part of this is part
of Gatlinburg? Now what's happening?

Speaker 3 (01:35:21):
I wish I had a bear suit that was real
good like that. I would bear around like crazy. You're
doing the gallery, Yeah, I'll do it right now.

Speaker 4 (01:35:29):
What we if Fanny Farkle's getting a corn dog?

Speaker 2 (01:35:31):
He saw that? Oh man, here he goes, oh wow,

No, No, it's actually like he's getting out and now
he's gone there you go there you got oh butt crackshow.

Speaker 2 (01:35:49):
That's good. Yoga has paid all right? Hey, look at
your red got goes to your head. There's a lot
of running on. Grand kids can do that and they
do it pace. He's like Adler, he can go with
the bear. Yeah yeah, he does it a lot. Yeah,
well that Adler just moved around pretty good. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:36:07):
I used to do it as a kid all the time,
so I got around.

Speaker 2 (01:36:10):
Do y'all think that's not a real bear in Gatlinburg.
That's a bear y'all either. He's around town so much.
Nobody cares either that. Some are saying it's a that's
why it doesn't look like you make paint. But they
don't know how they can.

Speaker 3 (01:36:23):
People are paying attention to look that guy's like what
these people are filming it?

Speaker 2 (01:36:26):
This one guy right here will pay out with the
bag anything. And he's pointing.

Speaker 4 (01:36:30):
Yeah, he's like get out go and he went right
down there.

Speaker 2 (01:36:34):

So have y'all ever heard about that bear that was
in Gatlinburg, Like way back whenever Dollywood first opened up,
and they had they had a bear in a cage
and it was like a Coca Cola advertisement, And they

(01:40:34):
used to put peanuts in a Coca cola can, and
then you could buy one and give it to the
bear and it would make it look like it was
drinking coke. Well, it didn't last.

Speaker 2 (01:40:44):
For very long.

Speaker 7 (01:40:45):
There was a few rednecks who got up there and
they wound up putting gasoline in one of the can
and then they gave it to the bear and the
bear went crazy. It broke out of the cage. It ran,
I mean, it just started going crazy going down the road,
was running and it got about half paint a pitching
forward and then they just dropped Greg.

Speaker 2 (01:41:06):
Greg, and I'm waiting on the punchline.

Speaker 10 (01:41:08):
No, that was it.

Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
Do you think that story is real?

Speaker 3 (01:41:11):

Speaker 11 (01:47:57):
Hey, yeah, late veteran stay guys, Great Grandpapy served. On

less or that something is a force to be reckoned with.
And like, for instance, the other day, I had somebody
asked me if I wanted to play rock paper nigger shure.

Speaker 2 (01:48:16):
I hope that worked. It was in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:48:20):
I didn't understand that one bit.

Speaker 2 (01:48:22):
Yeah, it wasn't very clear. Thank goodness. I don't got it. Yeah,
it was in the world. Well, and you know, I
know honestly, and I hate to do that, but we
did the show yesterday just fine without you, and I
got I got no problem going back to that. Yeah,
I mean, having little funds one thing and it walk

(01:48:42):
walk in the line maybe, but that's that's going to fall.
And you hate, you hate for a A few people
are ruined it for everybody, But I got no issue.
I'm done with it, don't need it to do the show.
It's not a much.

Speaker 5 (01:48:57):
We'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (01:48:58):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, his life statement. Suck
it up, butter to come, Rick Burgess.

Speaker 2 (01:49:23):
Here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:49:23):
We're back.

Speaker 2 (01:49:24):
Thank you for being with us America as we work
through another show together. And I understand. I see text
nation emails. I know how much y'all love unscreen phone calls.
And what we'll do is we'll work to block those
that can't seem to to participate in a way, which

(01:49:45):
is you know, it's always the way it is. But
but we will, we will remedy that that there's so
few and they're so ignorant, and they're so foolish, and
and you just really really really get upset when people
just can't have the basic decency. Now, those of you
that are saying go back to screen phone calls, that
won't solve anything. I mean, people can lie to a

(01:50:08):
phone screener, I mean didn't do anything. The delay works
like both of those got dumped. But and that took
it out almost everything except a few of the platforms.
So that's that they can do that. But we can
also see people's number. So uh so we will work
on blocking people that that just can't handle that responsibility.

(01:50:31):
Which is fine. I do I do hate for that.
That's something that is a lot of fun to be
ruined for everybody. But screening doesn't do anything. That's the
reason why we went to unscreen phone calls. It's it's
people can say, I want to talk about the show
yesterday from Big Oak and and there was something funny
that I and you go and you answer the phone
they just say something else. Yeah, So it just doesn't

(01:50:51):
do any good because people have people who have no
no no call factor on you know what you do
and you don't do you think they're going to tell
you the truth? Yeah, they're gonna take true. So so anyway,
but we can't. We do have an option and this
this has it on being able to ban people just
like we can on the text option. So so we'll

(01:51:13):
go to something like that. But I will say this,
everybody's on probation for a while. I mean because we
got to get down to get that system back, which
we can do so that may take time, so that
that kind of just comes with the territory. But again,
screening doesn't accomplish anything because people the screening only works
if people are willing to tell the truth, and they're not,

(01:51:35):
so it doesn't really work. Now, how about this a
couple of things and we and we're wasting a person
from the team by doing it when when it won't
accomplish anything. All right, So a couple of things we
want to hit on. I didn't know this Adler, and
you put this out there video number nine, so I
knew the penny was going away, but it looks like

(01:51:57):
after two hundred and thirty two years to day, the
US mint has made the last penny. So we can
say that, guys, we can say we lived in the
time that the penny ended. Oh yeah, and uh so
the old penny. Yeah, Adler has the video here. Uh
so this is it, right, I mean, this is the
last one. There, it is.

Speaker 3 (01:52:20):
Here, last one. Y'all are minting the last.

Speaker 2 (01:52:24):
Yeah, and the penny was just another example of how
inefficient government is. Yes, how much it costs to make them?

Speaker 3 (01:52:31):
Yeah, wasn't it thirty seven cents per penny?

Speaker 2 (01:52:34):
I thought it was three cents a penny?

Speaker 6 (01:52:35):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (01:52:35):
Was it thirty going thirty seven? And and so there there's.

Speaker 4 (01:52:40):
Badly you could find out. I thought it was free,
but it might be.

Speaker 2 (01:52:43):
I know it was. I thought it was more than
it's worth.

Speaker 8 (01:52:46):
I know that.

Speaker 3 (01:52:46):
I think it was somewhere around like eighty seven billion dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:52:51):
To make them. Let me let me pull this on.
No more pennies a miny, give a penny, need a
penny and a penny.

Speaker 4 (01:53:00):
You'll probably And I've been seeing the little signs on
the front door of some establishments that say they round up.

Speaker 3 (01:53:08):
It is three point seven cents to make, not thirty seven.

Speaker 2 (01:53:11):
So that's all right, buddy, you look, I'm so okay.
You really had a simple saying they called more to
make to make a penny? Yeah, there you go. So
so anyway, also video eight haven't penny? Did you make
care of the pennies? Are going I don't. I don't.
They're hassling one couldn't careless about the penning.

Speaker 3 (01:53:30):
Okay, So in twenty twenty three it was, uh okay.
So it's fifty six million dollars annual savings. So there
you go.

Speaker 2 (01:53:40):
So uh so, so anyway the.

Speaker 4 (01:53:46):
I saw are you saying about talking about eight rick?

Speaker 2 (01:53:49):
Yeah, I'm talking about eight this.

Speaker 4 (01:53:51):
Yeah, there is a we had a story out had
here but it was too weird and creepy. I didn't
print it. Where now AI is they're saying that it's
gonna let you talk to those that have passed on.

Speaker 2 (01:54:03):
Oh good night. So that this guy I didn't. I
didn't even print it.

Speaker 3 (01:54:07):
This guy some some callum callum Worthy or something is
his name. He uh he has he's the founder of
a two way app, but way is spelled weird. But
they put out this commercial for their their their AI
software in which you record your grandma for three minutes

(01:54:30):
just on a phone, just say hey, Grandma talk, talk,
Grandma talk. And then the company you can send that
three minute video. And they're proposing it so that the
video shows a pregnant person and she's recording her mom
or grandma, grandma in this situation. And then it follows
the baby. Baby Charlie follows Baby Charlie throughout his whole

(01:54:53):
life as he continues throughout his whole life to con
you know, to talk to his his grandma, and it's
they think it's going to be sweet, but it's just nice.

Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
See, oh wonder.

Speaker 3 (01:55:08):
So she's talking to ar right now.

Speaker 13 (01:55:09):
Easy, he's listening.

Speaker 3 (01:55:11):
Put your hand on your chummy and humkam.

Speaker 10 (01:55:14):
You're nice guys.

Speaker 2 (01:55:19):
This is it feels like he's dancing there.

Speaker 3 (01:55:24):
Would you tell Charlie that bedtime story you always used
to tell Once upon a time there was a baby unit.

Speaker 2 (01:55:30):
Okay, okay, And so you get the idea of the
lady from the wedding singers. No, it's not. It looks
kind of like it made to meat balls when you
give her singing lesson.

Speaker 3 (01:55:39):
Yeah, you know, at the point of the commercial, you know, what.

Speaker 10 (01:55:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:55:43):
So now Charlie's ten, Charlie has his futuristic phone, and
there's Charlie talking to his grandma on his futuristic phone
because Charlie's ten.

Speaker 8 (01:55:51):
Now, it was really fun.

Speaker 2 (01:55:53):
I mean, it's crazy. I don't really care that much
about basketball. What about the crush? Guys, that's weird. Okay, guys. Look,
we all have people that we love that have gone
on the end, and we get pictures of them in
the time they were alive. Even maybe now with all
the video you have videos of them, and those are
very moving and they're great. I don't want that person

(01:56:17):
to literally be talking to me from the dead. I
don't want ghost a. I don't want to ghost a
of a loved one that's talking to me in current
time like they're still around. No, yeah, that's it.

Speaker 8 (01:56:29):
No. No.

Speaker 3 (01:56:30):
And plus, when you're filming that three minute video of Grandma,
Grandma's gonna be like, what are you doing nothing, Grandma? Yeah,
keep just setting it up so you can haunt me
from the grave for the rest of my life.

Speaker 2 (01:56:40):
Hey Grandma, No, no, no, you're not getting old. Well
you're talking this so I canna Gorgio because you know,
we all know you're probably not gonna see this baby.
I mean no, that's it's creepy.

Speaker 3 (01:56:51):
It's creepy. And that grandma did look like she was
gonna serve up some sloppy Joe's to Adam Sadler.

Speaker 2 (01:56:57):
Yeah, because I know you kids like them some.

Speaker 12 (01:57:02):
We'll be right back.

and we got people ready to play the Burgess ball
Battle today.

Speaker 15 (01:58:20):

So far the will has uh has spun a lot
of fun uh and not a lot of cash uh,
even though we did have a thousand dollars winter a
week ago today. So it's not like it's it's been
that long, right, maybe it's two weeks ago today. But
but anyway, so, uh, we'll we'll give a shot at

I don't. I don't want to tell them, you know,

can just see the AI grandmama starts out talking to
your kid kind of sweetly. Uh, she's from the dead,

don't forget that, which should be creepy to any kid.

Speaker 10 (01:59:44):
Why is my.

Speaker 2 (01:59:44):
Grandmother always with me? I thought I saw her grapes site,

how you know, strange encounters, Yeah, I mean, before you
know it, a grandmama telling the kid to do some things, like,

(02:00:08):
you know, do you have a good day today? It's cool?
Tell me about it? So you have access to matches,

Speaker 6 (02:00:25):
You know?

Speaker 3 (02:00:25):
I mean it's cold, we should start a fire.

Speaker 2 (02:00:29):
Yeah, like an older Miss Valentine.

Speaker 3 (02:00:35):
Do you want to hear another clip from that grandma?
Here's another piece from the ai grandma.

Speaker 13 (02:00:46):
I know.

Speaker 2 (02:00:48):
Like em me, lady, you're scaring us.

Speaker 3 (02:00:55):
Lady, you're scaring us.

Speaker 2 (02:00:57):
Thank you for that, Thank you very much. If you
put just a dad was really mad you today, wasn't
he grandson? Your daddy sure was mean? You want you want?
You want me to tell you a few things you
could drop with an eye dropper on his hamburger. You
know what I mean. I mean he won't be me anymore. Yeah, grounded,

(02:01:19):
that doesn't seem fair. Yeah, I'm sorry. If I was there,
you know I'm in heaven. Now look cut his high
I don't think far ast guns what okay, far ast
gums your granddaddy speak to me.

Speaker 3 (02:01:38):
Here's here it is one more time for for real.
This is the This is the actual commercial. This is
the actual commercial from what we were talking about. And
this is when you're supposed to video your grandma so
that she can hunt you from the grave forever. And
I don't think that's a good thing to do.

Speaker 2 (02:01:52):
I don't know. It's spinning, you know, spinning a strange encounters,
That's what I'm talking at. This has this has demons
written all over here.

Speaker 19 (02:02:01):
Okay, mom, I just need a quick video because it's
like an audition or something.

Speaker 2 (02:02:06):
You're going to be dancer.

Speaker 3 (02:02:10):
I can play the piano talent I am. I'm absolutely
I'm your mother after.

Speaker 2 (02:02:15):
All, all right. I don't have a problem, and I
think didn't. So what's his name, Michael Keaton? When Michael
Keaton did that deal where he was, I think he's
dying of cancer or something. And people do videos, you know,
to talk to your kids that you're not going to see.
That's that's fine. But this AI thing pretends like they're

(02:02:38):
interacting with you in real time. They're still alive in
your life currently, not hey remember me. That that's that's
that's that's different.

Speaker 6 (02:02:47):
It is.

Speaker 2 (02:02:47):
But but when I'm now acting like I'm just alive
all the time and I'm interacting in your in your
current situation.

Speaker 3 (02:02:54):
Yeah, no, this is encouraging, as encouraging people to emotionally
on with technology for the rest of their lives. That's
what was in the commercial, and that is not healthy
and good. That's foster real relationships with real people that
are still alive and appreciate the people.

Speaker 2 (02:03:09):
Of Well said. There you go, buddy, well said, and
that that's it all right. So imagine her taking.

Speaker 3 (02:03:16):
Holes in the wall.

Speaker 2 (02:03:18):
Look interesting. We should put a favor clip in there. Okay,
I guess you could speak at your own funeral. Listen,
you think about it, Thank you for being here. He
needs to fail mister Chan, so he can have him.
Oh yeah, because he ain't got long.

Speaker 3 (02:03:34):
Why do y'all want to put him in the grave?

Speaker 2 (02:03:35):
Okay, you need video, mister.

Speaker 3 (02:03:38):
Video, mister Chen, that's not creepy because he's a.

Speaker 2 (02:03:41):
Fish carnival is Uh what if al was in the
rest of your life? He's Ai Chen still here?

Speaker 3 (02:03:51):

Speaker 2 (02:03:55):
Oh so you just told somebodyn't even know sometimes what
I'm going to work out? Just changing? He trowling there?

Speaker 3 (02:04:03):
What am I gonna go to the bathroom?

Speaker 2 (02:04:05):
Yeah, there's a concept.

Speaker 3 (02:04:06):
Oh I forgot about this big window. That's why those
studio and audience people looked at me. Weird that one time.

Speaker 2 (02:04:11):
There's a crowd gathering. Yeah, daddy, your gee is too big.
This explains, This explains every now and then the video archive.
The numbers are through the room.

Speaker 3 (02:04:21):
They really well.

Speaker 10 (02:04:23):
Right.

Speaker 13 (02:04:23):
So h.

Speaker 3 (02:04:25):
That's two ways the name of the company. So if
you're looking to avoid a company, that's the name.

Speaker 2 (02:04:31):
But Ways is spelled.

Speaker 3 (02:04:33):
Yeah, way is spelled.

Speaker 2 (02:04:35):
It goes back. We should ever, we should never ever,
okay forget these words of wisdom. Strangely, I know they
came from Stephen King and so I understand that. Yeah,
but the line in pet cemetery. Sometimes Dad is better,
you know. I mean it was the guy that played

(02:04:55):
Herman Monster. It was alone, even though he was Herman
Fred Fred something something. I saw the judge and my
cousin Bennie. Yes he is, and he was fantastic and
he really was. But you you right, But you know
sometimes this is when Fred when there he is. Like

(02:05:15):
you said, the part of your living in a falling
creation is learning to deal with life and death and
attaching yourself that we can somehow live forever through technology.
That's a bad road to be on. Agree that that's
that's a rough road. If you want to capture memories
of when I was alive again, no problem. But I

(02:05:36):
shouldn't keep you shouldn't keep pretending I'm still alive. That's
a problem. Yeah. And let me tell you something. If
demons can have your grandma will walk in the bedroom,
how easy would it be for them to infiltrate this? Right?
M m man, there we go, by the way.

Speaker 3 (02:05:52):
I didn't know that that was in his real head.

Speaker 2 (02:05:54):
I thought he really did feel so much better for Freglant,
He's not near as ugly. You I mean he's ugliness.

Speaker 3 (02:06:07):

the grave.

to the shirt you're in. So here's what's gonna happen.

(02:10:30):
TERA's gonna spin, and if you like what she spins,
you just say I'll take that. And then but you
don't get spinned.

Speaker 10 (02:10:36):

If you turn it down, then your spin stands superseding
her spin. You can't go back and pick it up. Yeah,
all right, so too a good game. It was a
great game, Terry. You played well, Plow. You got none
to be ashamed of. Yeah, you got none to be
ashamed of. It's okay unless you spend a thousand, that's right, Yes, yes,
you know it is not okay. Right, you're and you're

you know you're good three point shot? Good, had rotation
on the ball, she'd be a good guard. I think
she probably can handle the ball. Well yeah, oh yeah,
be a three point shooter. So here we go, Terry,
you say it's not will to me, and then you
spin it a little louder. Okay, here were okay, so

Pretty big update coming here. Let's get to Barbara Smith
up here. Let's go, Barbara, Barbara coming to the big
boy mind. I've got ye. Let's go Barbara. Got Barbara,
Barbara Barbara. However, those of you that may not know

(02:16:42):
this about Barbara Barbara, everybody remembers our dog Buddy, that
when all the kids left, we decided that Buddy might
be happier with someone like Barbara than us at this
age of life. And Barbara came over to near where

(02:17:04):
we live, and I watched Buddy leave with Barbara. He
gave me kind of a see you later. He looks
so happy. He was thrilled. He was thrilled. And I've
watched your updates yes with Buddy and the rest of
your animal family, and Buddy is living the greatest life ever,
the best. You are, the most wonderful pet owner I've

(02:17:25):
ever known, absolutely awesome.

Speaker 19 (02:17:27):
You know, when when I got Buddy he was ten pounds,
he's twenty three.

Speaker 6 (02:17:31):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:17:34):
If you've done you starving him on the back, should
weigh ten pounds exactly.

Speaker 19 (02:17:39):
He's like this big living he's having the best life.
He's got a medical issue, so you know, he's he
follows me. He's the best dog ever.

Speaker 2 (02:17:49):
So I just love him so much. No, I will
say this my pillow. Yeah, we could not care for
him the way he needs to be cared for. But
I will say, of all the family pets we've ever had,
he was by far the best trained.

Speaker 19 (02:18:03):
Oh he Oh my goodness. I've never had a trained
dog before you. He's trained. So I thank you. He's
just I just love him so much.

Speaker 2 (02:18:10):
So well, thank you because it gives us Uncle Rick.
I love him. What a great little dog. Yeah, I
tried to give with some of my puppies I have. Well, yeah,
I tried to actually see you if she was interesting
taking Adler home. He's already talked about.

Speaker 19 (02:18:27):
Friends that I could take Jack and Leo and Cuddy
and Kevin. But I can't. But Adler. Today, I'm taking
mister chin.

Speaker 2 (02:18:39):
It's over.

Speaker 19 (02:18:40):
It's over in the corner. His water is horrible.

Speaker 3 (02:18:45):
He's coming home to me enough, it's over.

Speaker 19 (02:18:50):
You noticed she was home today.

Speaker 2 (02:18:53):
She was willing, possessed. Did you see that he was
left out? Of the list. She was willing to take
anybody except Franklin. Did you better take your wife's dog.
That's a good point.

Speaker 3 (02:19:02):
Think about it, you know, don't write it off. Think
about if you take mister Chan, you can have Franklin.
You take frank you can have mister Chen.

Speaker 19 (02:19:08):
I mean, speedy can hold you down. But I'm taking
mister it's over. It's over.

Speaker 2 (02:19:14):
Its waters to let him live a great life. He's fine,
he's happy.

Speaker 3 (02:19:18):
I'm looking at him right now.

Speaker 19 (02:19:19):
No he's not Adler.

Speaker 3 (02:19:21):
No he's not.

Speaker 2 (02:19:22):
Animals from this show, our text Nation, they're so clever
and so funny. So Rick basically took Buddy to Big
Oak and Barbara's big O for doggs.

Speaker 19 (02:19:31):
Yes, I do wish I could take all of them,
but I can't.

Speaker 2 (02:19:37):
But you can't you Franklin.

Speaker 19 (02:19:41):
Yes, Kevin Franklin, I'm not taking your wife's dog.

Speaker 2 (02:19:44):
Right, So you're you draw the line the.

Speaker 19 (02:19:46):
Line anyway, mister Chan.

Speaker 2 (02:19:47):
Today he's going you what about Milly? Bring Milly over?

Speaker 19 (02:19:53):
You take Millie.

Speaker 2 (02:19:55):
You don't know what you're getting into. You know, this
trained thing. She's a complete opposite, right, she's borderline wild.

Speaker 19 (02:20:03):
Then I don't want that, so.

Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
Thank you for supporting the Rick and Bubby show for
so many years and now supporting this and most most importantly,
you will always be dear to me for taking button.
All right, So we we have more vo today and
joneses Red. So we were talking Benji about Red Bay

(02:20:35):
where it came from, because this this little place is
nowhere near the Gulf coast.

Speaker 14 (02:20:40):
Now, so everybody thinks we're on the coast, but we're
actually in the northwest corner of the state. So we'll
get our name from the bay leaves and the red clay.
She is from phil Camba, which on the other side
of the county, which we don't necessarily.

Speaker 2 (02:20:55):
Like the men.

Speaker 14 (02:20:56):
Her bought a poultry farm and met in the middle
of the county and Hodges okay, so you.

Speaker 2 (02:21:00):
Are Lina live in field Camp.

Speaker 14 (02:21:03):
Yeah, so we just kind of compromised and met in
the middle.

Speaker 2 (02:21:05):
So, so how many chickens you got?

Speaker 14 (02:21:08):
I raised about eighty thousand chickens. Eighty thousand. I'm about
an average size, you know, there's some smaller, some bigger.
So you know, we currently growing nine pound birds, so
you know, pretty pretty pretty big bird, you know. So
and uh, you know, so you know it's big on
this show. But you know, a lot of my day
revolves around Dodo. You know, was a big business and

(02:21:31):
her because you know, whether we're putting it on her
cattle fields, how you fields? You know, so so you know,
I know, it just made about half the listeners jealous.

Speaker 2 (02:21:39):
You know, you're you can just look at your little wife.
She's just beaming with pride.

Speaker 14 (02:21:44):
Yeah, she loves it. You know, she smells off money.

Speaker 2 (02:21:46):
She just took him that this is good. She smells
like so yeah, that's.

Speaker 14 (02:21:56):
What my daddy always said growing up. And it didn't
really smell out money to make about four or five
years ago. But you know now, you know it smells
off money that you know what that's true?

Speaker 2 (02:22:04):
Now do you you get into eggs or anything or.

Speaker 14 (02:22:07):
Just I'm on the browler side of meat chickens, yeah
I have. You know, I'm not I'm not into the
eggs side, but you know, I do typically know you
know that you know, the debate of the day. You
know that generally a day, you know, chicken lays of
egg a day, you know, And I think the you know,
I think the layers, I think they keep them like
forty something weeks, you know, where we keepers nine weeks
at a time, so you know, it's it's a whole

(02:22:29):
different concept than what I do.

Speaker 2 (02:22:30):
So you know, do you maybe if I'm out of line,
I'm just interested in this, you know, because you know
I've got a little lands. Can you say who you
who takes your chickens? Or do you do different people?

Speaker 14 (02:22:44):
Do you know I grow for a company, a more
well known company, you know, so it's not you know,
we're independent growers, but you know we grow for you know,
a big contractor you know, so you know we don't
we don't sell you know direct, I mean we sell
you know, wholesale.

She knows how to talk.

Speaker 2 (02:24:07):

Hello America, everybody ready to go? Getting you ready for
the weekend. No new strange encounters this weekend, but you
will get a new one coming up next weekend. Lord Willie.
So we were on the road during record days, so

(02:26:45):
we didn't get one in this week. But if you
missed the episode, is good time to catch up. There's
twenty of those and some of you, some of you
need to catch up because sometimes I get emails. Ay,
if you ever thought about taking the song, and I'm like, well,
that was episode four. So if you if you've just
now started, you probably want to go back and pick
up the others as well, and this would be a
good weekend to do that. So Jonathan is standing by

(02:27:08):
Jonathan Weaver. I think, yeah, but we've got Shenna Weaver
and Lila Weaver also here. The Weaver from here. So
Jonathan talking to your family. Uh, you're in a small
town in Florida, near Tampa.

Speaker 20 (02:27:24):
It's a small town that's getting bigger, is it. What
was it called plant City?

Speaker 2 (02:27:28):
Plants City? Yeah, plant City. You don't know about plants
I've heard of. Let me guess I was there and
back in the Poe day. Yeah, I think I may
have been. You know what, Well, Greg, when you said that,
he's like, that's where they make planters, Panus, isn't it.

Speaker 20 (02:27:40):
But we do make something they're famous for, strawberries. Oh
so that's their claim.

Speaker 2 (02:27:46):
I love strawberry. Who who's an old team that didn't
like strawberries? Adler?

Speaker 3 (02:27:49):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (02:27:49):
Adler?

Speaker 3 (02:27:50):
I love straw strawberries. No, don't put that on me.

Speaker 20 (02:27:53):
Okay, so we're in between Tampa and Orlando. Okay, great,
So eight and a half hours, not a not a
bad drive at all.

Speaker 2 (02:28:00):
So you guys, you guys came in obviously last night, yes, sir,
and do you plan on staying or y'all rolling back?
Y'all got other things?

Speaker 3 (02:28:07):
Tell we take a look at Bultan or something we
worked it in.

Speaker 20 (02:28:10):
So today is Jenna's birthday, Okay, for her birthday, we
got to go to the show that I love.

Speaker 1 (02:28:19):
Jenna.

Speaker 2 (02:28:19):
I noticed you didn't come here to talk, and I
want I hope that's because you're a little bit shy,
not because you don't like the show. Yeah, do you like?
She loves the show. She loves the show. That's good.
And then your daughter, Lyla, do you like the show? Okay?

Speaker 20 (02:28:32):
I've subjected them to this show for quite a few
years now, so they tolerate me, and they tolerate it.
They tolerate y'all. I think you know they. I think
they love y'all.

Speaker 2 (02:28:41):
Since you said quite a few years, that means that
signals you were part of the Rick and Bubby years too.
So how does somebody implant City, Florida find the old show?
And of course the new show? You were alread connected,
so you probably went right in.

Speaker 20 (02:28:57):
So a couple of things. You asked if we had
other plans.

Speaker 13 (02:28:59):
We do.

Speaker 20 (02:29:00):
We So I was in the Air Force. We then
we're stationed down in Montgomery. And that's how I found y'all. Yeah,
I was just listening to the radio one day. I've
got kind of a story behind that, but we'll get
into that maybe later. But I found y'all in Montgomery.
So we're going down to Montgomery after this. Just that
Lilah was actually born in Montgomery. Well how about so

(02:29:20):
we're going to go down there and kind of retrace
some of our steps, go by our old house, come
stay the night, and then we'll go back home tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (02:29:29):
Fly Melilah. It comes from Montgomery. All right?

Speaker 3 (02:29:33):
So hey, have you ever heard of you ever heard
of Bell Shoul's first Baptist Church.

Speaker 20 (02:29:38):
I've actually emailed you on that before.

Speaker 2 (02:29:40):
Okay, OK.

Speaker 3 (02:29:40):
Two things.

Speaker 20 (02:29:41):
We lived in San Antonio, San Antonio. Now they got
two brothers stationed in San Antonio also, But yeah, Bell
Shoals is over in Brandon area. That's like fifteen twenty
minutes away from us.

Speaker 3 (02:29:54):
So yeah, that's really weird. I lived in Tampa and
I lived in San Antonio's. We've lived in the same
towns guys were.

Speaker 2 (02:30:01):
He's a veteran and you're not. But that's for my service,
for service I did yesterday. Remember that's right, that's right. Well,
very cool man, So any shout out your questions.

Speaker 20 (02:30:14):
I think everybody in my office is watching just about.
So shout out to everybody at the office. I'm not
going to list them all. Shout out to my brother
in law Travis, my mother in law, Kitty, and anybody
else that I didn't think of.

Speaker 4 (02:30:29):
And he sent me a little very prepared man. And yeah,
he sent me a little something. And you can set
this up if you if you want to, Jonathan, or
just play it. I don't know, it's your call.

Speaker 20 (02:30:42):
So a little backstory. So we didn't bring anything. We
didn't bring one thing. But I do have a connection
and somewhat of a claim to fame with the show.
So a couple of months ago, I wrote a song
called what about the Dog That's you?

Speaker 2 (02:30:59):
I wrote what about the Doge?

Speaker 3 (02:31:07):
Nice?

Speaker 20 (02:31:07):
Yeah, So like when I listened to the show during
the day, I catch all on YouTube and whenever i'm
you know, i'll be working or whatever, I'll listened to
it in the background and I'll lean over to the
guy next to me, Daniel, my songs playing like it's
times a week stories.

Speaker 17 (02:31:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (02:31:25):
I got into the AI song thing pretty early, and
I know y'all got flooded with it initially, so I
kind of backed out.

Speaker 2 (02:31:32):
But I did.

Speaker 20 (02:31:32):
What about the dog?

Speaker 10 (02:31:33):
I did?

Speaker 13 (02:31:34):
Uh?

Speaker 20 (02:31:35):
I don't know if you remember. We played it one
time on the show Adler the Eagle and it was
just like I remember that disc track on Adler. I'm
sorry about that.

Speaker 3 (02:31:42):
I don't even remember that. I blocked it out.

Speaker 20 (02:31:45):
I remember watching you and we played it. You did
not look happy, so I was a little I have
no memory of that. But I did my gift that
to you, Rick, not to put you on blast, but
I did write a song for you, real thank you.

Turnkey also fix a breaker. Don't want to get into that, but.

Speaker 20 (02:33:52):
Okay, I just want to say I think the attraction
to this show for a lot of people is you

like I know every single one of you. I know
a lot of people say that, and all I can say,
in the words of Greg is they're my friends.

thank you very much. Yeah, John Weaver Weaver is down.
Then he wrote it. He wrote this too, but I

(02:34:31):

so there it is, uh well, an active bunch. We
got some characters in here. We do.

Speaker 10 (02:34:39):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (02:34:40):
I like it.

Speaker 8 (02:34:41):
You know.

Speaker 2 (02:34:41):
It's almost like, you know, the Tuesday people, anybody that
will come to this show at the second day of
the week and they can get off at work and
nobody cared on Tuesday. They're unique. The Friday people always
have a little more of a party feel, you know,
because all they did is turned this into three day weekends. Yeah,
you know, and and they're hanging out and they took
some time off. I don't know who's watching the chickens,

(02:35:02):
but uh, you know, okay, they got got that cover.
Uh so uh and we were thankful to hear that
Jonathan's family does have some connection to Montgomery because oh yeah,
I thought, yeah, that's half hours for this, you know. Yeah,
uh top of the hour. By the way, something we
did not know that or you may missed this and
he left it out with surprised me. Stole a key

(02:35:23):
chain in San Antonio. Yeah, that's another thing you'll have
comata having common Hey, crime doesn't pay, buddy, he didn't
do that. We'll be right back. Stay close. If you
leave us, have a good weekend. Catch the archives on
any part you didn't get today.

Speaker 1 (02:35:39):
This is the Rick Burgess Showerica.

Speaker 2 (02:36:04):
Here we go brand new Iowa. Thank you for being
with us America as we rode through another one today.

Speaker 3 (02:36:11):
Nasting from Louie l word.

Speaker 2 (02:36:14):
And our number is eight eight eight to number six
Big Vox. Same thing to text us emails at rickburchasshow
dot com. If you'll just click on the team. There's
everybody's email there. You also can chat in our chat
rib on Tube City with all the tubers another way

(02:36:35):
to communicate as well. So as we get into this hour,
we've met everybody in the vox seats, We've had a
Burgess Ball battle, we had a winner, and now we
finish out the week for a lot of you. If
you're hearing the show in the order in which it occurred,
and you know here we are, I mean, we step

(02:36:55):
ever closer, ever closer we step toward the holiday season.
Thanksgiving is two weeks from yesterday, and then once once
we hit Black Friday, we're off and running. And we've
got some big plans for our first ever holiday season
of the Rick Burgess Show. And we got big plans.
Do we believe in kind of just being straightforward and

(02:37:16):
also be uh uh, you know, do it in a
way that might be entertaining. Strange concept there, but we're
gonna We're gonna try that, but we're going We do
have one big prize from a sponsor that will add
to the cash that day, but ten days of cash
is coming. It is the Christmas Cash Countdown. Saint Rick

(02:37:36):
totaling a bag of money at the end of the day.
You'd just like to have some money and I you know,
it's and I you know. And the thing that's beautiful
about money is it doesn't even get you know. You
would think, well, the gift card is a great idea,
and it can be, but you're still limited to the
place that it came from, unless it's a America Express
or Visa gift card. But cash, you just spend it

(02:37:59):
wherever you want and you can truly get whatever you want. Uh.
So we're we're out there, you start thinking about things
coming up. Christmas lights are going up even before Thanksgiving.
For some reason, Sherry thinks if everybody's coming to our
house for Thanksgiving, they want to see Christmas lights on Thanksgiving,
even though these are not Thanksgiving lights. No they're not.
There's no such a thing. But anyway, I do understand

(02:38:21):
that the lights are ready to go. Christmas Tree, you know,
we're real we're real tree people, not the camel pattern,
but the actual Christmas tree. I do tend to lean
Mossy Oak need them to do a little more with us.
But yeah, right, and like I see Molt and them
get their act together. But uh, but the but but

(02:38:42):
so Dan, Yeah, hey Dan, how's it going?

Speaker 10 (02:38:44):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (02:38:44):
But so, but I'm talking about a real Christmas tree.
So we don't you put that up too early. You know,
you you'll have a house fire.

Speaker 10 (02:38:52):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:38:53):
But you now, guys have gone from all my kids
are raised. Now you two, Greg Speed, you have grandkids,
so now the little kid experiences are now.

Speaker 4 (02:39:04):
And you thought about having kids were fun, and having
a grandkid is something else because you get to have
a really good time.

Speaker 2 (02:39:13):
Yep.

Speaker 11 (02:39:13):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (02:39:14):
And last night we were traveling down the road and
River was in the back with us, and he was
showing off because he's learned to add numbers a lot.

Speaker 2 (02:39:24):
He's four, and so he was showing off. The one
that he was really proud of was eleven plus one.
Oh dude, Yeah, he kept going back to that one.
That's right, And and and what was it? Five plus six?
Oh he thought?

Speaker 4 (02:39:41):
He said, man, you don't know that one. And then
and he asked me if I knew what four plus
four was, and I told him, and he said.

Speaker 2 (02:39:47):
That's right, baldy, No man, I blame his daddy for that, Tyler.

Speaker 4 (02:39:54):
They'll they'll go chicken legs or bald in a second.

Speaker 2 (02:39:56):
Woe.

Speaker 4 (02:39:58):
But anyway, so we're just kind of having a good
old time and I noticed this car is easing on
along small truck, And do y'all ever look left or
right when you pass cars and like to actually see
who's in there.

Speaker 3 (02:40:11):
If they do something stupid. I'm like, I got to
see who this person.

Speaker 2 (02:40:13):
Is, or I did that When I used to see
people with a Biden bumper sticker on, I always had
to look at them. Yeah, but when I do, I
swerve into them. Yeah that's why.

Speaker 4 (02:40:22):
Yeah, Okay, the strangest thing happened. It's a three lane
interstate middle lane, not doing anything wrong. We get up
beside them, of course, to pass, not being in a hurry.
I felt like I was and don't know why, and
so we pull up over to the left road. It's
terrible and we get up.

Speaker 2 (02:40:38):
Beside him, and all of a sudden we see Christmas
lights come on in his truck, inside inside the truck,
inside the truck. I look over. It's Santa. Santa's driving
a truck.

Speaker 4 (02:40:48):
I'm straight up, I'm talking about white Beard Santa.

Speaker 2 (02:40:53):
Is he waiting to click the lines when people come up?
I guess he looked at me like how about that?

Speaker 6 (02:40:59):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (02:41:00):
And it got river going. I bet he believe Next
thing we know it's roll the window down, ho ho
ho interacting? Yes, I interacted with Santa in the middle right.
I couldn't believe it.

Speaker 4 (02:41:16):
So then we get on, we get off, we get
off the exit, get to the bottom of the ramp
and it's the red light and I see his truck
back there, lights back off, and I went, he's gonna
come up beside us. Stas about now I'm excited for
some reason, rivers about to break his neck looking back,
you know, behind, where's he at? And now he comes
up on my left. I rolled the windows down, yes,

(02:41:39):
and he turns like back on and time he catches somebody.
I would love that ten and two of course the gloves,
but go ahead, right, yeah, he understand. It's like I'm
at the mall in North Pole, Santa.

Speaker 2 (02:41:58):
I mean he is. And it's a little later, and
you know what, the lights probably the lights he probably
didn't have to go. No, he probably has probably Christmas magic. Yeah,
he's probably got a little toggle swick you know. No,
he can't just make it happen. Oh what true? And
he probably drinking, Greg I'm dressed up like that, And
so Sandy, do you feel good about that? Eggnog and

(02:42:20):
river was talking a big game until until the stairdown.

Speaker 4 (02:42:25):
Did you threaten to go, Hey, we're gonna go. Yeah,
Well the stair down happened.

Speaker 2 (02:42:28):
Okay, so now too much.

Speaker 4 (02:42:30):
Yeah, so now the window comes down, he's just like
he can't believe it. And in that presence, yeah, and
now we're sitting still, red light, sitting still ten and two.
Santa looks over and goes, but he gives he gives
him a head nod. What kind of truck is he driving?
I got a small, small, too two door truck. Looked

(02:42:52):
like an old Ford, you know, old.

Speaker 2 (02:42:55):
Oh Chevy love you could be red Chevy Love chey.

Speaker 4 (02:43:00):
And he just nods, He gives me the nod, like,
how about this? It looks at me, how about this?
And it looks back at at river and river is
besides he cannot a little bit is a little bit
and over his head right here, yeah, and and so
now here here goes Now we're turning okay, green light
and h and and he gets up ghost left and

(02:43:23):
now rivers like catch up with it, catch up with him,
you know, And he ends up turning off to go
all the way to the north bowt yes, And then
then we start playing he's got to get back to
the north pole and all this kind of shriff.

Speaker 2 (02:43:34):
But we saw, we saw truck fly just riding around
and flipping lines. Yes, I was thinking to myself, you know,
very similar to that. I was thinking, yeah, you see
right up front, that's where the reindeer hook up.

Speaker 4 (02:43:47):
You know, did you do that?

Speaker 2 (02:43:49):
Yeah? Did you did the river? Because I would could
could the truck fly? In my mind? I think it can?

Speaker 15 (02:43:57):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (02:43:58):
But but guys, he's understand. It wasn't white lights either.
They were all colored. Of course Christmas light of course,
are y'all white lights on the tree or colored? I
like to have a tree with white lights and one
with colored.

Speaker 3 (02:44:10):
Okay, I do white on the tree, and then the
old school colored big bulbs on the roofline so it
looks super old schools nineteen seventies.

Speaker 2 (02:44:19):
Nice. I'm clear lights, clear lights only really on anything.

Speaker 4 (02:44:24):
We seem to be more clear than anything. But these
were colored, and they were they were too perfection. On
the inside of the truck.

Speaker 2 (02:44:30):
There wasn't one hanging wrong or now you think he
just rides around it there, buddy, I guess.

Speaker 3 (02:44:34):
So.

Speaker 2 (02:44:34):
I don't know what it was. But and at the
red light.

Speaker 4 (02:44:39):
It was a little brighter, and so I could really
get a good look at him and Buddy.

Speaker 3 (02:44:44):
I think have the suit or no?

Speaker 4 (02:44:46):
Yeah, it was a suit, white gloves, white hat, everything.

Speaker 2 (02:44:51):
Christmas lights inside. Yes, they could flip on on command. Yes, Greg, Yes,
it's a big deal, big deal. Yeah, I love little River.
He's talking big game to We got to the red light.
By the way, he was so ready to talk to
him until he cook, oh yeah, how quick do you
think I hit that window to go, Ben, And now
they're like feet from each other. Boy with Greg one

(02:45:13):
time he did the same thing. And of course it's
when the Budweiser truck went by with the cloudes Dale.
I mean it was you know, he got all he
was talking a big game and I said, there, the
cloud's down there. It is Greg his frozen It's like
he couldn't believe it carried on throughout the night, and

(02:45:33):
so that really got him going, oh yeah, now he's ready.
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:45:36):
Then he had to call Dad back Tyler and ask
him where the helf is, because you know he where
the helf is.

Speaker 2 (02:45:42):
His health already out well.

Speaker 4 (02:45:44):
Tyler said, the elf comes after Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (02:45:46):
But River was really pressing. You understand I saw Santa tonight,

(02:47:23):
Big Vox sixty percent off a new system. Now, let
me tell you where they are, simply says, way ahead
of everybody ounce in the industry. They're way ahead because
they actually, through AI technology, have mastered the ability for
their cameras, the live guard cameras, to engage an intruder
before the intruder ever steals or breaks in. Now, it's

(02:47:46):
one thing to be reactive. That's certainly okay, it's not
as good as proactive, though, what about Hey my my,
my gift stayed right where it is because y'all started
saying we see you. Okay, I didn't get a window broke.
I didn't get my door broke because y'all started engaging
them the minute they came on the property. And they
have the ability to do that. So go right now

(02:48:07):
to simply Safe dot com slash Big Vox sixty percent off. Also,
you can find them right there at Rick Burgess Show
dot com under sponsors. There's no safe quite like simply
safe dot com slash Big vox safe. So you mentioned
that you saw scent in the truck straight up wasn't

(02:48:27):
ready for that. Okay, you were with your friend's son.
It was a big deal. A couple of things. First
of all, people who take us to task over things,
and there's some things y'all can correct us own in
our grammar and in our words that that should be corrected.
Neuropathy is one of those that one. But when you

(02:48:50):
say things that are just our culture, we're not going
to change.

Speaker 8 (02:48:54):
No.

Speaker 2 (02:48:54):
Because somebody said, it's color lights, not colored lights. Now,
not in Calhoun County, the colored lights, and it's what
color color lights not colored? What's the difference, Well, I
disagree because.

Speaker 3 (02:49:07):
You're not supposed to stay colored anymore.

Speaker 2 (02:49:09):
Oh is that lights? What you can't see? Color? Lights matter?
Lives matter? What are we talking about? We can't say
colored lights.

Speaker 3 (02:49:18):
I don't even see color, but they are colored.

Speaker 2 (02:49:21):
The lights offended. The plastic that the light illuminates through
has been colored. Now now we know how lights feel color.

Speaker 3 (02:49:28):
I am offended.

Speaker 2 (02:49:29):
Yeah, well, color color lights, color lights, color lights. Somebody
says that they don't like the way greg. You and
I say you that we're right right good? Yeah, I
think the person's wrong. They are you know, you and
I like people don't like the way we say m
A W k are and they say we say it
that way, it's supposed to be m O c k.

(02:49:50):
It's like socks monk. But we didn't. But we didn't
say that in Cavoun County. No, you're right, Yeah it is.
He's mocking you. He's mocking you that moment. Yeah, I'll
tell you one thing, and we didn't say mock that
how we talk. Yeah, so so there's certain things we're
not going to change. Ernesty Bass more, are you talking
more on moging?

Speaker 4 (02:50:10):
That's right, I try to say, Phil, I just realized
that we talked a lot like Ernesty Bass.

Speaker 2 (02:50:14):
Probably I try to say field gold, but I say
feel gold. I know, now that's right. You might want
to work on that. Can I just have that it's
not a gold? I mean we're not trying to but real.

Speaker 4 (02:50:25):
Quick, I don't know that you can even if I said, hey,
you go gold, No you can't.

Speaker 3 (02:50:29):
Speaking on about that. I said they like we were
showing some football highlight and I was like, they need
to hike it.

Speaker 2 (02:50:38):
Yeah, that was a rough day.

Speaker 3 (02:50:40):
I didn't even know that was wrong.

Speaker 2 (02:50:42):
That would He's not wrong, it's just it's it's dated.

Speaker 3 (02:50:44):
And it's snap it. Don't you snap it, don't hike it.

Speaker 2 (02:50:47):
Yeah, we don't hike it. Snap the ball. Hike. Now,
your grandmother came out in the yard where you're playing pickup,
and she would say, let me hike it. You know,
no man should say they hiked it in a game.
All right, I didn't know, right, yeah, So.

Speaker 3 (02:51:00):
Do you do you say that, speedy?

Speaker 2 (02:51:03):
No, No one says it hike the ball. No football
fan with any substance of any kind would say, look
at look at that. They got a bad hike. They
fumbled on the on the hike or if the clock
timers running down, you don't, ye know, hike it right? Yeah?
Snap snap it.

Speaker 3 (02:51:21):
Well you can say both.

Speaker 2 (02:51:22):
I think you shouldn't.

Speaker 3 (02:51:23):
Well, then why do you say down set hike?

Speaker 2 (02:51:26):
We don't down hike, not anymore. It's hut. Yeah, alright,
I'll give you this. Sometimes, if you're playing in the
back with a child, you might say ready set, ready
set hike or something, or down set hut or you know,
but you know, normally it's just go now.

Speaker 3 (02:51:48):
You know, by the way, from old school. I'm from
the old You really are the leather helmet, you really are.

Speaker 2 (02:51:54):
That's who I am you are?

Speaker 3 (02:51:56):
We broke fingers broke, we bent back and kept playing
all this with.

Speaker 2 (02:51:59):
The s you you Rockney. Somebody says they've aied it.
Color lights and colored lights are used, but colored lights
is the grammatically correct choice.

Speaker 3 (02:52:10):
Yeah, there go.

Speaker 2 (02:52:14):
I knew I was right. You were right here. You
usually are again, do you know what they usually are?
You're cold, but I'm not cold, And I know that
I say nuclear. I know that I'm gonna keep saying it.
I don't say nuclear nuclear nuclear. That sounds like some
kind of eye drop.

Speaker 3 (02:52:31):
Nucular versus nuclear.

Speaker 10 (02:52:34):
I like. I like.

Speaker 2 (02:52:35):
I like the way I say.

Speaker 4 (02:52:36):
I noticed you say veterans different to Veterans Day. You
say veterans. Is it veterans and veterans? It's veterans. But
sometimes I say veterans.

Speaker 2 (02:52:45):
Okay, I don't know, because well I thought I said
it wrong. No veterans is hot, Okay, that's what I thought.
But I say veterans because that's the way I am.
I think that's right too. I love veterans. I love veterans.
If I went up to a man said thank you
for your service, uh, and Happy Veterans Day, I don't
think it's going, well, won't you say it roight?

Speaker 8 (02:53:03):
You know?

Speaker 2 (02:53:03):
No, I think he's gonna say thank you? Yeah? You
know how you like that? Am I communicating my point clearly? Okay,
it's too late for me. I'm sixty one. There's only
so much I can change. Yeah, you know it's I'm
in the king stage now.

Speaker 3 (02:53:18):
You know, if we're in a hurry up offense and
we're just trying to hike.

Speaker 2 (02:53:21):
The ball, what if what if somebody said, bart Starr
hiked the ball on the in the ice bow, and
you said, and got it across the field gold? Yeah,
got across the gold line in the ice right?

Speaker 10 (02:53:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:53:42):
Do you love the first part of doing it is
just knowing it? Did you love when bart Starr told
us we thought we had this great Vince Lombardi speech
he got and he just told us that, you know,
when he's over, We're talking to Vince Lombardi before they
win the Super Bowl in the ice bow on the
quarterback snake, and you're you're thinking, what's that big conversation?
And you remember when he let everybody in on it.
He just looked at me and said, we're freezing out here.
Snapped the bottom win.

Speaker 3 (02:54:06):
I heard he said, hike the ball, let's go.

Speaker 2 (02:54:07):
He may have you know what, like it's possible bark
Star might have said hid he said, I think so,
I'm told I have to use the bathroom.

Speaker 6 (02:54:15):
Right?

Speaker 2 (02:54:15):
What he said? A bathroom? It's okay, but we all
got problems.

Speaker 3 (02:54:20):
Man, we don't say bathroom.

Speaker 2 (02:54:22):
Now you say bathroom, you're talking about r it.

Speaker 3 (02:54:27):
I don't say bathroom.

Speaker 2 (02:54:28):
Yeah, I've never done.

Speaker 1 (02:54:30):
He is the Rick Burgess Show, the man who was
bold enough to point out that there is no such
thing as dog ears. Dogs just don't live as long

(02:54:52):
as humans.

Speaker 2 (02:54:53):
Rick Burches made sure that bar Barber heard that once
she was here. So here we are. Thanks for being
with us America. We've had a blast and uh and
look forward to spending more time with you, and be
sure to catch anything you missed and the daily archives.
I had a Bible study this week. You can catch

(02:55:15):
over the weekend to kind of catch up on what
what happened. All the shows of the week archived and
ready to go after this one today. All right, So
we do have a few things I do want to
say as far I touch on a couple more adler
with you. I'm probably gonna end up before we're done
this segment video four. Take a look at that. I want,
I do want to kind of uncomfortably talk about something

(02:55:36):
that will bother speedy. You mentioned that you and your
grandson sal Santa driving a red Chevy Love that had
lights that would turn on when he stopped and can't
explain it. Have we have? Of course you have Santa,
and I remember that my parents told Greg and me
when we were asking about we we were seeing multiple

(02:55:59):
Santas what was going on? And we were told there,
you know, you got your Santa, and then you've got
your Santa's helpers that are like actors that portray him
also all over the place. I know you felt like
you probably saw the real deal, and probably maybe so.
But we know one by the way that you and
I worked with for years. Uh, there's one of Santa's

(02:56:22):
helpers that portray Santa, and I want to talk about
the very uncomfortable social awkwardness. Have you there's these that
are Santa's helpers that portray Santa, and they're aware of
it and they live out that balance the way it
should be. Have you ever been around those? Did you
start thinking, I think he thinks he's Santa and and

(02:56:45):
it's uncomfortable when they went to, I'm growing a real beard.
That's why it all started get in trouble with in
fake beards, which they are not very good at it,
they're not, but at least it was at the perspective.
It kept the perspective right. You know what else tipped
me when I was a kid, the boots he had on,
like a regular pair of shoes, and then the top
part that's slid down and make it look like a move.
I thought, that's real. That's right. You knew that was
that was that's an imposter. Here his feet hurt. Yeah,

(02:57:07):
you knew greg that he he sits on a a
seed of lise. And I'm like, I've never seen a
beard where you can't see the mouth move, right. So
then the real beard actors begin to kind of take over,
and now you don't really you don't really see the
fake beard much unless it's like your buddy, Yeah, you
know what I mean. But there are those that have

(02:57:27):
almost taken on the persona and they think I think
they're starting to think that they are Santa. Yeah. I
remember saying I don't, I don't. I'm pretty sure I
don't know everything about Saint Nick. Pretty sure he didn't
live in Silicaga, you know what I mean, eating it jack, right,
I'm pretty sure that I feel stronger about that. Uh
but Sam Alt right now in the off season, maybe maybe,

(02:57:51):
And I'm talking about they pretty much they almost will.
They almost stay like sat on vacation. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Beard now lion shirt. Yeah, okay, it's almost like, hey, Bob,
lo's the suspenders? Yeah okay, I mean it's it's it's over,
Christmas is over, and.

Speaker 3 (02:58:07):
Then they just look like John Day walking around.

Speaker 10 (02:58:09):
Right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:58:10):
Have you experienced a sound? Are those that they're almost
in there in just a little too much? Yeah? Okay, Yeah,
it's the soy.

Speaker 3 (02:58:18):
Start calling their wife missus claws.

Speaker 2 (02:58:20):
Yes, things like that, cookies all the time, right, I
think it's an excuse to stay fat. Yeah, I got to.
I got my role. Nobody wants a skinny signa And
I'm quoting Rude off the Red Nose rein Deer. You
that's exactly what. And it's true. I don't want to
see a skinny Sana, you know. I don't want him
to have type two. But I mean, i'm you know,

(02:58:41):
and I want him to have a decent blood pressure. Yeah,
I want to traveling, right, And I don't want him to,
you know, get involved with neuropathy.

Speaker 3 (02:58:49):
Yeah, when I sit on his lap, I don't want
to like be like stabbed by his knees, you know,
and nothing. I don't want anything sharp. I mean when
I sit on his lap, right.

Speaker 4 (02:58:58):
Oh, buddy of ours that's been in business for a
long time, that that he seems to have the perspective
pretty bad. Yeah, but I was really surprised me has
his own website and everything, his card. Remember that he's
like a he's booked in like a year in advance.
You telling me how to demand.

Speaker 2 (02:59:17):
Myself? Man, how did you get tired of having to
play that? I don't know. Man, you remember the time,
Remember you remember the time that I you know, I
ended in a friendship over the flat Earth? Do you
remember that? Yeah, I couldn't be friends with someone who
believed the Earth was flat, and and and I just
ended it. And there's some of the sound of people,

(02:59:39):
you know, it's just I'm just saying, be careful, you know.
Oh yeah, you know, like the one that that I knew,
I was a little bit of concerned. There was just
a little concern if he'll come to your party for
fifty But when I when I was talking to him,
and he kept referring to himself as Chris Kringle and
stuff like that, and and then and then it was like, okay,
we're kidding around, right, there's nobody here, it's just us.

(03:00:00):
And he was like, so what do you want for Christmas?
And I'm like, Bob, you can't. You can't do that,
you know, and and like they wouldn't, they wouldn't let
it go. You didn't fly here. I was like, if
you if I go in your backyard, you got reindeerpenned
up that this this thing is ending. I'm calling somebody.
And because so it's okay to have them if you

(03:00:21):
know kids are coming to give them carrots. But if
you start hooking them up and stuff like that, and
you you think the red Chevy love is gonna fly,
we got problems.

Speaker 11 (03:00:29):
Now.

Speaker 2 (03:00:30):
I'm just saying keeping him perspective. Does our friend is
he pretty balanced?

Speaker 1 (03:00:35):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (03:00:36):
But I mean he'sing it. No, he looks fantastic, but
he pull on that beard and he's gonna say owl.
I would just like to say that he's really not
sounded though correct.

Speaker 2 (03:00:46):
I didn't realize that he understands his given name is
justin the day I saw him and I thought, so,
you're going with the sound and look. I didn't know
he was actually doing it because he had regular clothes,
but he had the beard like for me, like, because
you know, I'm I'm brouther rather jolly, uh and plump enough. Okay,
even after doing a little better, I'm not I hadn't

(03:01:08):
totally left my plumpness. If I if this beard turns
completely gray and my hair turns completely gray, you may
have we're on the road. We're on that road. Do
I now feel obligated I should take a look at
a few cent of gigs? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:01:22):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (03:01:24):
What are my cheeks? I know they're large, but are
they rosy enough?

Speaker 12 (03:01:27):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (03:01:28):
Okay, yeah, lose the glasses or do I go with
the nose the little ones on my nose. I'm looking
at the list and I'm checking it twice, checking right. Yeah,
I mean, I'm seriously, if you look. If your friend
does this and they're good at it, good for them,
But do they start checking the list and stuff like that?

Speaker 1 (03:01:46):
Can yeah?

Speaker 2 (03:01:47):
Yeah, I mean you've seen that one with who he's
with I mean, I'm telling you this, this this our buddy.
I mean he is he looks like Santa. Okay, so
I'm more concerned about him than I thought I would be. Yeah, no, no,
he I mean I have an acquaintance that I think
has left the farm. But but but this, this friend
you know that we've actually worked with. I mean, is

(03:02:08):
he is he keeping it in perspective?

Speaker 4 (03:02:10):
Yeah, by the way, he just texted me. Santa just
texted me there is Yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 (03:02:14):

scare him. Yeah, yeah, I got it's the real deal.
I still got his car. I need to hire one out.

Speaker 3 (03:03:07):
What does he charge?

Speaker 2 (03:03:08):
Yeah, you might inside track his book speaking on a
friend discount. By the way, people are saying, they think
right now, if Gary would let his Gary let his
beard grow, he could do it.

Speaker 3 (03:03:19):
He would be in great Santa's got the body for it.

Speaker 2 (03:03:22):
Hey, what you want for Christmas? Down? They want you
back to this the first misteak. You can make it
to the fellows thinking you can have something. Mister joy here,

wish Santa. I wish I was gonna see Santa. So
I'll do what I can do. I'm covered up, got

(03:03:44):
all I can do. Can I have a football?

Speaker 2 (03:03:48):
You don't need the football. You're too skinny. Santa. What's
your website? My website is spurdmaster at Chris Kringle dot com. Yeah,
I don't know, said, look, yeah, but you can go
too far with it. I had his look that I'd
make a killing he does. Do you Does anybody want

(03:04:11):
a bald Santa? I've seen some bald Santas. Is that
a shot at me? Like the rain to here it ended? Yeah,
I don't know. You're fine, you grow full beard, you
might a little skin. You gotta put your white.

Speaker 1 (03:04:27):
This is the Rick Burgers Show. We talked to the
public every day and trust us, you should be gravely concerned.

(03:04:53):
The Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 2 (03:04:55):
Alrighty, here we go, Thanks for being with us America
as we wrap up another hour and for many of
you not just another day, another week, all right. So
looking at the at the numbers here, I'm a photographer
off text Nation. I work with some of Santa's helpers.

(03:05:18):
They charge one hundred and fifty dollars an hour. What
they said, not a bad little side gig, the side hustle.
Some of them are very sound alike. And I think
those I think those that keep it in the side hustle,
I think they're good. I think where the danger starts
is when they go full time. This is my sole income. Yeah,

(03:05:40):
that's when they start getting a little bit well they
stepping the game up. Yeah they are. Yeah. Okay, Andler,
we a couple of things wanted to hit Greg. We
have a video man arrested. I don't know that we
have to include allegedly in here, but legally we will
man arrested after allegedly getting drunk and destroying a home

(03:06:02):
with an excavator. Oh this in post Falls, Idaho. He's
sobered up. He was like twenty nine year old Fred
cut Cardinal Cardiner. We don't it doesn't matter Rick, nobody knows, Himboddy,
somebody might, somebody not hosted. I miss Fred's name of it.
But somewhere Fred is going, thank god, he didn't get

(03:06:23):
my name right. But anyway, so you can see it
a couple of ways. But apparently we have a package
or something with this and what is this?

Speaker 3 (03:06:33):
This is the aftermath. You're gonna see the house. The
house is almost done. The house is almost finished. A
neighbor who lives in the area got a ring notification.
You got, you know, a home security we've all got
here before.

Speaker 2 (03:06:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:06:50):
I meant to say, so, all right, you got there,
But in this story, I've just read the story saying
and so this notification. Usually it's like, hey, my dog
is lost, or hey, did y'all hear a weird and
it was that a gunshot or whatever it is. This
is a man tore a house down with an excavator. Uh,
he's a construction worker. He was mad at his boss,

(03:07:12):
so he just tore the house down.

Speaker 2 (03:07:17):
I don't think he kind of sort of messed it up.
That's what happened. Do you have a neck tattoo? It
just do you think that's a neck tattoo? He just
needs to scrub a little harder. He may need to.
I'm not sure what is he is? He give us
the finger on his neck.

Speaker 3 (03:07:29):
No, you know, I don't know what that is. I
don't let's not look too close at it. But there's
the excavator, there's the and y'all. He just just tore
almost finished. So he's mad at his boss. That's what
I understand. He's a construction worker.

Speaker 2 (03:07:43):
And they were building that home. He half the house
is just.

Speaker 3 (03:07:48):
That is so much money.

Speaker 2 (03:07:50):
So what happened was allegedly allegedly he he's sitting there
mad at his boss, and he and he started the
first one. He had took one back and he's like, yeah,
it's stupid man, disrespecting me. Man, I'm a sick and tired.
Second one and then he's like, I'm telling you, I
just want to tell him off. And then all of

(03:08:11):
a sudden, he made the mistake of getting some dark water.
You know what, And he reaches over and starts to
getting that dark water out, and the first time he
knocked it back at it's like it just went mean
down his body. You know what I meant. You just
started making him mean. And before you know it, he
begins to consider. I think I'm gonna take the excavator
and I'm going to destroy that house. And now now

(03:08:32):
it starts off as something you'd like to do to something,
My goodness, I'm actually doing it. Then you take a.

Speaker 4 (03:08:37):
Little bit off and then a little bit more, just
jail to you. Financially, you'll have to He'll have to
pay that off the rest of it.

Speaker 2 (03:08:43):
Shouldn't do this, but this would be fun. It should
not do it. I'd like to be like hired to
do it, and I know and everybody expects me to
do it. Not do it when you're not supposed to
Corner Lot too.

Speaker 4 (03:08:55):
Oh yeah, and Adam, we we know they wanted to
be in there by Christmas in the closing day.

Speaker 2 (03:09:03):
Yeah, speed back in the hotel Adler. Let's let's go
to Adler. But I didn't know the threes were all
things that happened in China. But uh, I mean it's
a let's let's jump down to three D. We've got
a sixteen year old sumo prodigy. I always like to
see a prodigy. Yeah, he's sixteen, he's a sumo prodigy.

(03:09:27):
He defeated a thirty nine year old, which I want
to attempt that name. But his opponent is more than
twice his size. Yeah, he don't look like there's no
weight classes in sumo. Good night, this is the sixteen
year old prodigy. Yeah, my goodness, kind of what she
hadn't done that? My dog wants his leg. Well, that's

(03:09:49):
a nice nice pants pants.

Speaker 4 (03:09:53):
We'll just show a pair of shorts.

Speaker 3 (03:09:55):
So much skin.

Speaker 2 (03:09:56):
Yeah, I don't know why. The sumo wrestlers, we we
basically see them. We see that we're in.

Speaker 3 (03:10:02):
It's primal.

Speaker 2 (03:10:03):
When you got on the left, probably go with all
I'm gonna knock. I'm gonna throw this guy out. But
why would this guy want to be as Sims. He's
not big enough. He's about to win, he's about to
he's a proud of you, Greg. Right here, he's surprising.

Speaker 4 (03:10:16):
He's my goodness, there is here.

Speaker 11 (03:10:23):
And there it is.

Speaker 2 (03:10:26):
That guy let him win just now. No, because I
let river Wind. There's so much honor involved. Yeah, I
think he let him. I think I would let somebody
when you can put my gym shore that solid. He
just got to push in my cat and that's the
end up. That's the rules the ring.

Speaker 3 (03:10:39):
You're not familiar with the.

Speaker 2 (03:10:40):
Wood on the faces A little go. That's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (03:10:44):
Please y'all do that.

Speaker 2 (03:10:45):
You're talking about the wedgie. That's almost we're almost. He
about picked him up like that. I mean that that
little fellow is pretty strong, stood too tall. The guy,
the big guy let people do that. He went in
with his head down too. If big, if big, of
course a while if big boy stays low, this guy
can't do this to No, he gets up high and

(03:11:06):
can't do that. Now he has no strength. No, it
is no, my goodness, what us shot? Okay, there we go. Man,
a lot of bare feet, right, So so he's gonna
reach around and pull him short. That's the weirdest, weirdest
wedge you've ever seen.

Speaker 3 (03:11:23):
All right, So, Greg, that's why I always say it's
not the size of the dog in the fight, is
the size of the fight.

Speaker 2 (03:11:30):
And the dogs always all right.

Speaker 3 (03:11:34):
So so let's look at three B and don't you'll
be letting the dogs out.

Speaker 2 (03:11:38):
I heard not the happiest story, but Greg, we have
somebody who has fallen, unfortunately, a hiker to their death
on China Mountain. Wow, because they were going to end
this hour, they untied, they untied the safety rope.

Speaker 3 (03:11:55):
Yeah, it's speeding on to sumer wrestle instead of watching
this person plunge.

Speaker 2 (03:11:58):
Together that Yes, if he wouldn't be a little they're
about to die.

Speaker 3 (03:12:01):
Yeah, right there, that person right there, Yes, and there's
a whole plan of people.

Speaker 2 (03:12:06):
Watching the safety rope. He's gone.

Speaker 3 (03:12:08):
He untied the safety rope. This is a safety This
is a p s A that we're doing right now.

Speaker 2 (03:12:12):
He's going off shohin the mountain. Yes, this guy's reaction
is kind of strange. I don't think you like it.

Speaker 3 (03:12:17):
There's nothing you can do.

Speaker 2 (03:12:18):
Is this a suicide? But it's not.

Speaker 3 (03:12:20):
He tripped and fell. He's you know, I'm not going
to play the screaming. Because he's screaming, it's obvious. It
wasn't not on purpose.

Speaker 2 (03:12:26):
Okay, Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (03:12:27):
Want to hear it speedy, No, I just want to
hear what's going on.

Speaker 2 (03:12:30):
Okay, well, all right, you really don't.

Speaker 3 (03:12:33):
It's horrible.

Speaker 2 (03:12:38):
Oh that's all. I'll turn that down.

Speaker 3 (03:12:41):
You just said I want to hear it.

Speaker 2 (03:12:44):
You just asked for it. So so this is a
p s A.

Speaker 3 (03:12:48):
Just yeah, don't be doing that.

Speaker 2 (03:12:49):
There's a reason. Safety is in the name of safety rope.
You mean to tell me that person slid that, that's Greg.
That's the big question, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (03:12:58):
Some people are claiming that the person was going to
take a selfie.

Speaker 2 (03:13:02):
No, that's people, and get away from.

Speaker 3 (03:13:08):
I don't think anybody said that.

Speaker 2 (03:13:09):
Greg. You this, do you realized he was sliding to
the cliff? No need anymore?

Speaker 8 (03:13:13):
No? No?

about to I'm sliding.

Speaker 2 (03:13:19):
Yeah, and and here I go. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (03:13:21):

Speaker 3 (03:13:23):
A YouTuber jumped up was doing some cliff diving and
same deal. And he had a good three seconds in
the air really and it did not clear the rocks.
