I think I hurt my wife's feelings last night. She
can't believe it. I turned fifty seven tomorrow and she
was wanting to plan like something, and I said, I
just be honest with you. I just fifty seven. I mean,
who's really celebrating that. I don't really care to do anything.
I don't worry even worry about a cake. Really, Yeah,

(03:18):
And I think it kind of hurt her feelings because
she did have something playing with the you know the
little swag moms, you know, all the ladies that have
stayed in touch since the boys played at a very
young age, and they're all still together, and so they
had their little Christmas whatever it's called, and they all
get together mid afternoon. And she said, so, I was

(03:38):
kind of trying to plan it, but are you going
to go hunting?

Speaker 3 (03:40):
What's the deal? I said, I just be honest with it.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
Sounds like it's crazy, and could I just not have
anything and just kind of move on my day? And
she's like huh, And I'm like, yeah, we already kind
of just don't worry about it, and she kind of
walked off like that.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
I kind of had the Greg Burgess appro didn't you say?

Speaker 6 (03:59):

have a birthday yet?

your hat backwards? About the same rounds? Are you okay

Speaker 10 (06:34):
Y'all?

Speaker 9 (06:34):
I forgot for so long.

Speaker 8 (06:36):
I think I got billed for three months without going
and my old place, And finally I just remembered because
I tried to do it online.

Speaker 9 (06:43):
I tried to do it on the app, and I
literally couldn't figure it out.

Speaker 8 (06:46):
And I kept forgetting and I kept getting built, and
every time I got billed, I would be like, all right,
I've got a month, I'm gonna go.

Speaker 9 (06:54):
And that went on for three months and I'm like,
all right now, and so what I actually did, y'all?
I felt so rude.

Speaker 8 (06:58):
But just one time, I just remember in traffic, I
was like, I gotta do this, So I called the place.
Nobody picked up, so I left a message. That's like
breaking up with your girlfriend over a voicemail. And I
felt terrible even while I was doing it. I'm like,
I'm so sorry. I just tried to do it online
and I'm just keep forgetting. My life was crazy. I
forget my cai'd by.

Speaker 4 (07:17):
It's horrible.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
I felt terrible.

Speaker 9 (07:19):
I felt terrible. Yeah, I didn't get builled.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
Can I say something to you? Ask it did work?

Speaker 9 (07:24):
I felt so bad. It was like breaking up with
your girlfriend over a text.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, Greg did that?

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (07:29):
Greg will do that in a second.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
My goodness, Aver, can can you show a little more,
just a little compassion. Yeah, right here on Speedy's birthday,
with you're talking about getting built about things that you
didn't use. Speedy's about to break out in a rash.

Speaker 9 (07:48):
Speedy gets a bad rap. I'm right there with him.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
You're not but you're not cheap, guys, I'm not cheap it.

Speaker 8 (07:55):
We're frugal and they were good stewards and we feel
the sting more. It's we're more empathetic towards our own money.

Speaker 11 (08:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
I haven't studied you to the tail. I've study I've
studied Speedy, so I won't make a ruling Speed's cheap. Yeah, yeah, sorry,
I've rubbed off on my wife too with that. We're
getting something done at that I know that was possible
to rub off. Yeah, that particular characteristic.

Speaker 6 (08:18):
We we were getting something done and something touched up
on a ceiling or whatever, and she said, well, we
could save money and do I said, so we're gonna
get up and on the ladder and do that on
the ceiling. She looked at me said yeah, you're right,
so I have you know, but she she had that
moment where you're like, you know, I try to do
things if I can myself. But then it gets to
a point where Okay, I'm not really I'm not handy

(08:39):
like you Rick, and so it's like I get to
a point where if I try to do that, I'm
just gonna mess it up.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
I would have knocked that out mid think you do something,
get in the middle of it, realize you can't.

Speaker 12 (08:49):
It's a tough line.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Once you get there, you're like, Okay, I can't do that.
I don't know that feeling. Yeah, by the way, did
you know that Guris says that he's got to come
to town for something. He's gonna pop by today. Gary,
all right, Really, I don't know if Vox seats you're
going to see him or not when he's coming by,

Is it something to be concerned about? Is it no
big deal? Uh? So we unpack it, try to balance it,
you know, the way that we always do, not not
looking behind every corner for something evil or wicked, but

Speaker 9 (12:14):
Oh hardball Yeah this week.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Thank you, buddy. The American Conference and the America Round Ball.
Uh in the American Conference this this could be a
playoff situation here, uh, North Texas in Tulane. Yeah, and
then over in the Mountain West. Believe it or not,
Dan Mullin coaches you n l V. I forgot all
about that. Ten and two. They're ten and two, my buddy. Yeah. Yeah,

(12:38):
poor Dan boy, the way he was treated that day.

Speaker 6 (12:42):
I called him and kind of hung up on him, remember,
he answered, So that's the Mountains you did?

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Yeah, I got it nerved about that. All of those Yeah,
you did, all of those that I just mentioned. They're
all today. Yeah, in the meaning tonight then tomorrow. Uh
the SEC Georgia Alabama rematch. Greg says he's not interested
for some reason. I'm tired of watching Georgia Alabama. Yeah,

(13:07):
I mean watch it by you.

Speaker 9 (13:10):
Watch play football. Yeah, that's that sucks.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah, I'm not watching. I'm watching too, Lane and Greg,
North Texas. That's a different day, Big twelve b Yu
in Texas. Tech Lord, Please don't let be why you
get in uh Tech Hamerton? I think no matter what,
probably I don't want to. I don't want to see
BYU in the play I don't either, we'll see. It
depends on that. If your quarterbacks number forty seven, you can't.

(13:35):
But they're just gonna get beat. B YU is a
wasted slot, it really is, I know, all right, So
then they kind of fall into that category. Though.

Speaker 6 (13:44):
Does a conference loss effect you getting in? Yes, and
they're at eleven in one and and it just depends
on if your you know, top ten solidified team or
not or whatever.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
They're at eleven you're not we're talking about. I say, no,
you mean tell me we don't have enough teams to
have a twelve team playoff without b YU.

Speaker 13 (14:00):
We do? We do?

Speaker 6 (14:00):
I mean Vanderbilts up there just screaming to Nashville. Hey,
we're ten and two in the sec our. Only losses
are Alabama and Oklahoma.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
You don't close is it Oklahoma to beat them? In Texas? Oklahoma? Texas?
I mean Alabama Texas? Yeah, you don't. You don't think
that Vanderbilt wild beat b Why U? No? Yeah, don't
look at me.

Speaker 6 (14:22):
I've heard a little discussion as far as b Yu goes,
is no matter what happens here, they both in Wow.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
You know that's what bothers me. We look whether it's
match up, but it doesn't matter who wins. To lose
there both in. Well, then why even playing? We shouldn't
be playing grovery bar talking about right now, and we
brought up yesterday. I know it's a repeat. Well, let's
say that Georgia beach Obama. Well, Obama beat him earlier,
so well washes out. What if we accomplished? Yeah? Nothing, Miami, Ohio,
Western Michigan. That's in the MAC Championship. I don't The

(14:51):
only way anybody cares about that game is if you
have a kid playing on one of those two teams.
The seven PM family I'm looking for, did this game
Big Ten? I want to see if Indiana can play
with Ohio State? Okay, yeah, now that I am. I
want to see the distance between number one and number
and they hadn't played each other during the season. You
ain't a repeat, right, don't you want to see what's

(15:12):
the gap between I want to see I want to
see it. So Indiana Ohio State in the Big Ten
Championship and then the one that really could mess the
whole thing up. Is the ACC Championship. We all got
to wait to the end. The last game, five loss
r Rice, No Duke, Duke, I get them mixed up.
Duke is seven and five and they're in the championship,
a conference championship game. It's seven and they could be

(15:34):
the conference champions. But the ACC needs to go to
what the SEC had to go to. Just take the
two best teams, right, not not the one that wins
one side. And then they played the one that exactly
So Duke and Virginia the ACC Championship. So there they are.
They all happen today and tomorrow and then after that's done,
we're ready. We're ready. We're ready for the playoffs. It's on.

Speaker 6 (15:55):
Yeah, we'll know so Sunday they'll have the big, the
big to see to everybody and tell you who's.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
In and all that cares.

Speaker 9 (16:05):
Settle it on the diamond.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
And again and again, we're all bothered.

Speaker 7 (16:10):
We are.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
You're HEARDing Greg's voice. We're all bothered. We got some
teams that have to play one more game than other
teams that are still gonna be in the playoffs. Yeah,
I mean, it just just bothersome yeah. I mean when
you're sitting there in your Texas saying him, You're like,
you know what that lost to Texas? Not too bad
for us. Yeah, we're in the playoffs. We're gonna take
a week. We get to get well, get ready for
the playoffs, get all our injuries, rest week.

Speaker 6 (16:32):
And if you're old miss you don't have to play,
and you kind of can just you don't have a coach,
don't have it. You can take a breath. With all
the drama that's been happening there and just kind of
did I see it as is this rumors or did
I see that ole miss a d they might try
to file a lawsuit against Kiffin?

Speaker 3 (16:48):
Oh really for what? Breach of contract or something?

Speaker 14 (16:51):
Work?

Speaker 3 (16:52):
I mean, is that Just saw a story on that,
But I don't know. Kelly's fine and they said they're
going to pay him, but he has to pursue a job. Yeah,
Brian can They tried to unless you try to get
out of their deal, and they can't get out of it.

Speaker 6 (17:06):
Everybody just needs to get over it. I saw coach Freeese.
I saw an interview with him. He wants to coach
now and he's and he's not happy.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
He said.

Speaker 6 (17:16):
He said, I'm really frustrated on a personal level because
I know how close Auburn is. Yeah, he said, they're
really close, and I'm I'm just devastated that we couldn't
make it happy.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yeah, I mean, Hugh's right, Hugh, I've been watching your
your your health decline. Just please take some time off. Yeah,
I mean, how about trying to coach Auburn like it
has done for so many people. There's two things that
will aid you, like there's no tomorrow, yes, being the
president of the United States and coaching Auburn. Yes, those
two things will aid you. They'll take you right to

Because no, they have something like that light up with
blue light. You have to carry it like this like
you're I mean, it's this big. Oh yeah, okay, yeah,
some will flash to the beat.

Speaker 12 (24:01):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
You got to see travel teams they use them walk yeah.
And so I look and that thing is over in
the corner, and I'm like, that's a lot of speaker
for for the house and Christmas music. Boom, oh my goodness,
boo blaze, you know, so I mean. And so I'm like, okay. So,

(24:23):
so Sherry's like, oh, it's so and you know, it
was kind of where we live right now. It's misty
and cold, you know, and it is very you know,
it's it's hot chocolate, you know, weather, you know all that,
and and Sherry's like, and you talk about you told
me you got to be so careful, so careful. So
Sherry said, oh, let's drink hot chocolate. And now that

(24:44):
all the decorations are up, let's let's sit and look
at the tree and and look at all they go
lower her the snow villages. And I'm like, oh, yeah, babe,
this is great. This is so good. And she goes,
I'm gonna make some hot chocolate and we go in there,
and there's the beautiful Christmas tree there. I put the
Christmas tree on my story today for you ought to
see it if you care about that. And and we're

(25:06):
we're sitting there and she's on the couch and I'm
in the chair and we're just facing the tree and
Christmas music is just and I'm just like, this is nice,
a little hot chocolate, and all of a sudden alert
on my phone military camera and uh. And I'm like,
oh gosh, I haven't checked the dear pictures today. Yeah,

(25:29):
And she's facing away from me, and you know, because
she's over here to my right on the couch and
she really has to turn all the way around even
see me. And I'm like, well, we can close to
the rut and uh. And I'm like I need to
take a look. It's a gamble. And and so I
started seeing pictures and assessing, you know, what was going

(25:50):
on with deer Honting and and I and I mean,
there was things I needed to see. I was trying
to take notes for all of us and and and
all of a sudden I got so in there and
I pictured myself sitting out there in the woods and
all that and all of a sudden, I hear, what
are you looking at?

Speaker 16 (26:10):
And uh?

Speaker 3 (26:11):
And I was like, well, when did you turn around?
And and and you do that? I said, I just
some of the pictures we took in the tree to
see if we got any good ones. And uh and
and and and she goes, are you looking at dear pictures?
And I said, yes, maybe notifications. I just yes, I

(26:33):
am And she goes, she goes, you mean to tell
me we've got the decorations up. It is like missing
rain outside, it's cold, we have hot chocolate, we've got
Christmas music playing, and we're sitting here looking at the
decorations and enjoying them. And you're looking at dear pictures.
And I said, you know you've already seen the decoration.
And you know what, I said, you're a really great communicator,

(26:54):
because you couldn't have said that any more clearly. Really
broke down. Yeah, and and and I said, would you
be interested? I said, I'm just going to say this
one time, because I'm about to turn this off. After
I texted pictures to all the guys, I said, she goes,
what I said, Well, I have to update them, And
I said when once I was what's I've updated? Then
I'm back and I said, would you like to see

(27:14):
the deer I'm looking at? And she goes what I said, Well,
I'd just like to show you. I mean, you're right,
I want to do all this together. I want to
listen to Christmas music, look at the beautiful Christmas decorations.
I want to drink this hot chocolate, and I want
to talk how much we love each other. And I'd

(27:35):
like for you know, also to include in that looking
at deer pictures, because it's I want us to do
everything together. How y'all like that?

Speaker 12 (27:44):
That's not bad.

Speaker 6 (27:45):
I mean that you tried, that's not It was a
gamble that as if she would turn around and she lost.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
In your phone? Right I did? I did what I Hey, guys,
I started looking. I was like, well, there's things that's
pretty good. There's things I need to send out, and
so we appreciate you doing it right. And so I
pretty much ended up closing the app out. Yeah, yeah,
it didn't. She didn't seem as excited about it as
I'd hoped, whether her a little bit, whether with her

(28:11):
a little throat blanket covering herself up, getting off snugly
and her little Christmas for dramas. She didn't. She wasn't
as fired up bout it as I expected. You know,
I thought it was some different thing together. It's kind
of like a rain there. And then there's that question
that always hits you. So you just couldn't wait. I mean,
we couldn't like finish this like and I was like,
I mean, I mean the guys, they need to see

(28:32):
where they go to bed, Yeah, go to bed early.
How am I going to get this all out?

Speaker 17 (28:37):
You know?

Speaker 3 (28:37):
I mean, I said, I I really, I'm multitasking. Yeah, true,
So just give me one section. So right now becomes that.
Now let's get into what this all means. Looking, I'm
brother my forehead. So now we get into this juggling
of and Greg, I know you're in the middle of
it too, of the holiday responsibilities to family and decorations

(28:58):
and yeah, people people coming over and all this stuff
going on. Well at the same time, football is in
conference championships and playoffs and deer huntings in full swing.
This is uh, this is a juggling act for men
of the world.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
Oh yeah, yeah, we had to break down, Terry and
I actually had to sit down and map it out
because we're, you know, hosting, and I gotta get my
parents and cousin Lisa and they're staying and me, it's like,
you need a spreadsheet?

Speaker 3 (29:24):
Oh, how we're gonna do it? And then she panicked.

Speaker 6 (29:26):
She's like and I was like, what she said, it's
three weeks from Christmas today and this was yesterday and
she said three weeks. And then here she goes if
she ever has a pen and pad out, watch out.
She gets to writing anding this and that and and
all this and all that, and I'm like, oh, gracious.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
By the way, another fumble you win. How'm I gonna
hunt this?

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (29:49):
Hey, I tell you what. I want to go over
and see your mom's decorations that we can get her
and bring over her to see our decorations. You talk about.
This is the one there that guy I said, yeah,
well maybe you y'all could do that. You know why
I'm going hunting. You're not gonna go with me to
go see your mom and to be over here when
your mom comes over. I'm like, oh, yeah, no, of

(30:10):
course I am. Oh at that time, it's just do
it early because I knew need to get that right.
So so you think of what about eleven, you know,
see eleven to twelve get a quick bite. Yeah, and
then yeah, I can do that. I need to be
rolling by twelve forty five. You put that on the canter.
Hey when they get get that that pad out, or

(30:31):
they get or they get that they get that calendar out.
And like Greg and I were talking about, there's certain
ways they feel about all this that we might as
well just be quiet. If you think you can reason
with them, you might as well just be quiet. But
how do you balance it?

Speaker 12 (30:45):
It's hard.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
I don't know. And I've even tried to saying, look, baby,
that the time I really need to be hunting is
It's just a small window. It's not that big window. Yeah,
she goes, you need the window right in the middle
of everything we're doing for Christmas. Yeah, well you put
it that way. There you are communicating, communicating clearly again.
So we'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, and here we go.

Speaker 14 (31:31):
We're back. They did get it.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
So we're working our way through another show today. On's
that Gary will be with us coming up later on today.
A little surprise Gary visit today. I mean hate I
thought i'd just stop by you don't wanna be up
here doing that thing with a sponsor. And uh so,
uh you know, Gary's big time now. I can't wait
for that. He's a big time now. So h so
he'll be with us. He's not thrilled with us right

(32:01):

life happens. And I mean, hey, you got all your
new ricks mix and everything gets new feed We're down
here and got feeders full of it and dear running everywhere.
Y'all'll never come down here now, So I do have
to agree with him on that, right.

Speaker 6 (32:21):
I know that we've have tons of tons of stories
here today, but I have one for you, Rick that
you're gonna love, absolutely love, and it is from Columbia Sportswear.
They are in their new ad challenging all flat earthers.
They're offering a gift of the entire company to anyone

(32:46):
who can I guess prove Earth is flat. There's they're saying,
whoever journey to the edge and bring back proof Earth
is flat, the CEO, Tim boy Boil said, and the
company is yours.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
I love this. You're right.

Speaker 6 (33:06):
They had me at hello, you are right so so
so basically, we're saying to all flat earthers and those
of you that go to those conferences and say, yeah,
there's proof. They're saying, all right, prove it, bring it
in and it's yours. The whole company. The company is yours.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
If the Yeah, if the Earth is flat, which it
is not, but if the Earth is flat, you should
be able to prove that.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
Right.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
We we have we have the we have the technology,
my goodness, we have airplanes that can fly around the world.
You should be able to get to the end of it. Yes, yes,
and that and that's what they're saying. They're saying, and
uh and Tim Boyle, the uh, the the ceo Rick.
I have a little bit of audio here of him

(33:50):
telling everybody in this ad here's the deal, prove it.
I like it.

Speaker 18 (33:54):
I am Tim Boyle, I'm the CEO here Columbia Sports
where And this message is for flat earthers.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
Okay, you guys claim there's.

Speaker 9 (34:01):
An end to the Earth.

Speaker 18 (34:02):
We'll just go snap a picture, send it to us,
and you get the assets of the company, all of it.
No paperwork, no lawyers, no catches, paperwork.

Speaker 9 (34:14):
Hey, we're giving you all this this and all of that.

Speaker 18 (34:19):
Hey, flat earthers, do me a favor. If you're going
to the edge of the earth, we're Columbia, you'll need it.

Speaker 3 (34:28):
And I like that a lot. Alright, So flat earthers,
all of you that want to call and argue, just
do it.

Speaker 17 (34:34):
Go do it.

Speaker 9 (34:35):
Yeah, put your money where your mouth is money.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
To me, the flat earth should be the easiest thing
to prove. You just get to the end of it.
Where are your Columbia sports Go get a picture, a
little bit of proof, bring it back. I like this.
I thought you might. I thought that's your story of
the day. Well, you know, you know, I've made the
commitment that I'll no longer try to reason with unreasonable

(35:00):
people because I don't have enough life left to waste
to waste it on that. But but these have kind
of backed off me a little bit because I'm just
not I'm not having that conversation. I mean, that's just absurd.

Speaker 6 (35:12):
Yeah, guys, there's conferences, the weekend long conferences that people
go to, well that are flat earthers, right, and and
they present all this evidence, right, they have all these
speakers and seminaris and stuff. Well, y'all get your group together,
head on out and bring back proof.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
You get the company because the Round Earth people have
presented tons of proof and all you've said is it's fake.
It's not true, Okay, tons of proof, So go get
the equal proof and refute show that the other is
fake by showing your evidence, which would debate it. That's it.
So there, you can get a whole company if you

(35:51):
do the whole Columbia Sports Week that's pretty big one too.
It is also this is a big out of the show.
I noticed you you pulled this story out today. You
remember we discussed and I'll hand this is is well.
I don't know why I would worry about children, because
children love this more than even adults. Anytime you're talking
about breaking wind, it is you know. Remember we were

(36:13):
the first people ever back in the Rick and Bubba
days to say in a microphone, I'm tired of people
asking why breaking wind is funny. That's not the question.
The question should be turned on those people saying, here's
the question, why don't you think it's funny? Because it
absolutely is funny. It's not weird to think it's funny.
What's weirdness to think it's not funny? Okay, So so anyway,

(36:35):
you remember we kind of touched on that odd phenomenon
that is, your own wind doesn't seem to bother you.
You know, it's other people's wind that bothers you. Your
own wind, you can kind of just hang out in it.
I mean, you can know when it's bad and more
than others, but you never really think it's bad. It

(36:56):
doesn't really bother you. Well, the science is in. The
science is in that would don't have the out, but
we got that. Did the study?

Speaker 19 (37:03):
Great?

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Greg? Let me tell you this is big, JOHNS Hopkins.
This is not some little run of the meal thing.
John Hopkins says the gas behind the foul rotten eggs,
the smelling stench, known as hydrogen sulfide, can help protect
against brain aging brain cells from Alzheimer's disease. Yeah, it

(37:29):
says why the smell smell gas is highly toxic in
large quantities, smaller doses like found and just your common
breaking of wind may actually have some serious health benefits.
Oh my goodness, and I thought all of all was
a big deal. How about this waving your own wind
up for a little smell may be good? Fig That

(37:53):
can't be where does it? Say, wave it up. Well,
I mean, where's what you can stay? Get some dishes?
Wave a little up. I mean, before you know it,
you were calling things you forgot. You know, you come
home with everything at the grocery store. Nobody can believe it.
What happened? I waved a little up. Yeah. So you're

(38:15):
saying that the medicine's in you. Our data firmly it's
all natural. Our data firmly links this and saying that
hydrogen sulfide and other gaseous molecules within the cell can
help the aging of brain cells the neuro degeneration can

(38:37):
actually help it and reverse it. I'm just telling you
take it up with Johns Hopkins. So you know, I
want to know who sat down and said we need
to do a study. Hey, I got a subject smelling
your own wind. Yeah, let's see about that might be
good for you. Let me tell you something. If they're
looking for a you know, a group to test, this
group's got won't have to worry about it. You're always

(39:00):
toting plenty.

Speaker 17 (39:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
Yeah, so there you go.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
I wasn't ready for that study. That's all health good.
So wave it? What was it? What's the bumper sticker again?
Wave it up for your brain.

Speaker 9 (39:16):
Wave it up for your brain.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
That's right, Wave it up, buttercup. Goh urge, good night man.
I almost sit here a minute. I need this, Yeah yeah,
just hang out, hang on, Hey, this is for my health.
Hang on, guys, I'm waving waving one up, guys, waving
it up, super healthy, beware, super help.

Speaker 6 (39:38):
Maybe that's what we do instead of warning the staff, Hey, guys,
I gotta tell you all.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
Just say hey, guys, warning, waving one up. Here's what
I'm going to curing diseases up in here. Here's what
I'm going to say. Hey, fellows, You're welcome that just
want to help you, not us.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
He is the Rick Burgess Show America. Are you ready
for more of the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Merry Christmas America. So it all starts Monday, the Christmas
Cash Countdown. We're giving away money every single day for
ten days, all the way down to the nineteenth, which
will be the Rick Burgess Show on air. Christmas Party.
You're all invited, and then we'll wrap up the year.

(40:37):
We'll take our little end of the year sabbatical. We'll
come back Lord Willing on January the fifth, and boy
do we have a lot planned for twenty twenty six,
I mean a lot. So excited about completing our first
year together. Really enjoying seeing all of you showing how
many hours you have spent listening to the show, on

(40:58):
all the stuff you're getting on your podcast numbers and
YouTube numbers. So thank you guys for that. Appreciate that,
and and thanks for being so good to us this year.
I'm not familiar with this story, but I love this headline.
NFL punter who's accused of threatening to kill opponent is
now nominated for the prestigious Walter Payton Award. This is boy.

(41:22):
I'm loving that headline. Yes, loving that headline. By the way,
are the Jaguars pretty good? Are they having a pretty
good season? Bad season? Mediocre season? It's like they don't
exist to me.

Speaker 9 (41:34):
This year's eight and four.

Speaker 3 (41:36):
That's not bad for as bad as they been at
the top of.

Speaker 9 (41:40):
The AFC South. Besides the Colts back next.

Speaker 3 (41:44):
To the Colts. How about this. I can't watch them
play if they're on I don't ever watch it. Okay,
you know it's one of those teams I'm like, uh,
but anyway, Jacksonville Jaguar punter Logan cook or were familiar
with this logan cook. All right, this is where each
team nominates their guy for this award. They did something
for the community or something you've done. You have to

(42:05):
play well on the field or just be good off
the field off off the field matter. It's not a
combination of the job. It's off the field, I think, okay,
it is off.

Speaker 7 (42:14):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
The award recognizes the player's excellence on and off the field.
He's on the field, but it's more about all you
can here.

Speaker 16 (42:23):
It is.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Here's wait a minute, it's about what you're doing. It
says on and off. So what I'm saying is they
feel like they're supposed to say, if I'm up for
the award and a mediocre player who is excellent off
the field, and then there's a player that's really good
on the field and excellence off the field, is he
is the one who does both gonna win over the

(42:44):
one that I don't know. The fact you're on the
NFL roster means you're probably pretty good pretty field. I'm reading, well,
not everybody's excellent one and on the field, though, they
feel like they got to say, I'm just telling you
what the article says. Hating on it. Yeah, y'all need
to quit hate on it. So the allegations were made.
Jacksonville beat Tennessee twenty five to three. That's not impressive, Sunday. Yeah,

(43:08):
Tennessee really really back to Tennessee getting a really nice stadium.
Y'all need to get better. You know, it's all about that.
When you get a new stadium, you are better. Okay, yeah, well,
may really just have to wait. According to Titan running
back Julius Chestnut, now this may be what's wrong with
the Titans. Okay, So I'm a running back and I'm
I'm out reporting that I'm terrified that a punters after me. Yeah,

(43:31):
somebody had to told on him. Maybe that's what's wrong
with the Titans. Yeah, a running back is afraid of
a threat from a punter. Yeah really, But anyway, so
he said he threatened me in the fourth quarter. How
during a punt in that quarter, the punter cook tripped
punt returner. I can't say his first need is Shamiri
Dyke or Shamir Dike at the end of a forty

(43:55):
seven yard run.

Speaker 12 (43:57):
Okay, okay, So.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
He's claiming the punter true ripped his guy because the
guy had a long run.

Speaker 16 (44:04):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
Cook was hurt the punter and and and and evaluated Okay,
so and and and he said that he he was
among those who got penalized for unnecessary roughness, meaning he
tripped the guy and he got penalized. Yeah. Titans safety
Mike Brown was ejected. I was just trying to play hard,

(44:26):
according to running back Chestnut.

Speaker 16 (44:30):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
And then he said to me the punter, Okay, who's
up for the prestigious Walter Payton Award, Logan Cook? He said,
I was just trying to play hard, and Logan Cook,
the punter said he was going to kill me. So
I don't know what made him do that. Do you
think he was really going to kill you? No, no,
he said. He said he never got even an explanation

(44:52):
on why Cook was mad at him. He said it
was surprising to me. He said, I ain't never seen
nothing like that before. He's a punter. Nobody's afraid of
a punner in the world. Nobody's afraid of a punter.
So so anyway, Cook wasn't asked specifically about the heated
moment with Chestnut. He said after the game he enjoys

(45:14):
hitting people and that Chestnut got the better of him
during the eventful game. Cook acknowledged that he made rude
comments to the referee after the game, but he's not
really coming clean about threatening to kill Chestnut. He said,
I said some things that sounded rude, so I got
to clear the air on that. I don't like people
having grudges against me, so so kind of telling me

(45:36):
the situation. Also find out his take on what happened
on that play in the end zone Da da dath so.
Cook never says that he threatened to kill him. Chestnut
says he did well. Logan Cook is sixty five two
and thirty pound punter. That's a big boy.

Speaker 15 (45:54):
Have we met him.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
I can't be afraid of a pun rick. Have we
met him? He just looked familiar.

Speaker 6 (46:00):
Yeah, he played at Missipi State, But I don't know
if have we ever crossed paths with him?

Speaker 3 (46:05):
Not that I know of, But that doesn't mean anything.
I think Gary has let me break wind a few
more times. I might remember it. There you go, give
me a good thank you, bud it. So it's very confusing.
Jess Nut says he threatened to kill me. Cook never
even addresses and at Mitzi City he threatened to kill him.
But I'm with you, Greg, I think I don't think
he literally means I'm gonna murder you.

Speaker 16 (46:26):
Ye, no.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Story off the field a humanitarian. By the way, let
me give some of you on social media props. Okay,
so you know talking about excellence on and off the field.
One one NFL fan put not only is he excellent
on and off the field, I would say he's killing
it on and off the field. Okay, absolutely murdering. That's
really good. So I don't I don't know. This story

(46:51):
is very confusing because you never at any point in
here does Logan Cook say, yeah, I told him I
was gonna kill him after the game. I didn't mean
murder him. Yeah, we're talking. We're talking trash out here
on the field. And by the way, he claims you
told the rev he's gonna kill even if he is
talking what you do. I think this is why the
Titans aren't any good right now. You got a running
back that's being a crybaby about somebody trash talking them,

(47:14):
and that's a punter and actually taking it like a
punter is trying to murder me. This is insane. Obviously,
the Jaguars aren't taking it serious because he's up for
the prestigious Walter Payton. Off the field, he's a really
nice Does he threaten to kill people? Yes? Does he
work well with the handicapped children, yes, he's yes, it
doesn't have to be handicapped. Oh that always helps you.

(47:36):
Uh so, I mean you know that that you don't
think that's giving up your time walking through I mean
working with special needs children, that's that's up. That's up.
Are like top ten. Yeah, it's a good thing to do,
right you throwing a couple of visits to the Children's
hospital cancer unit. I mean you're I mean, we're talking

(47:57):
about giving of yourself and using your platform for good
and you know, and then you go hold that one
little incidant against him, right then he the game, Right,
he's the game. Yeah, I mean you Speedy see speedy things.
There's a lot of trash talking punters out there, so
I kind of like watching Speedy. Speedy thinks there's only
one thing you can do in life that people should
that that people we should be devoted to, and that's

(48:17):
apparently helping the elderly. But there's other things. Boy, he's
got that cover. Boy, he does, and that is nice
and kind, but there are others that we should do that, right,
But that's not that's not the only thing. No, it's not,
it's not so so I don't know. This is a
strange story, but apparently the only person taking it serious
is Chestnut for the Titans, which probably speaks to why

(48:40):
they're not any good right now.

Speaker 6 (48:41):
Really, I think it's it's really only a story because
it's a funny headline.

Speaker 3 (48:47):
You know, Yeah, so and so threatened killed on the field.
Up for that, it's really just a The story's kind
of a dudge. No matter how jacked Pat McAfee gets,
I can't be afraid of him because he's a punter. Yeah,
I mean that puner thing is hard to get.

Speaker 1 (49:00):

this story over to me earlier. This is kind of
where we are and people we need to be a
little bit embarrassed. Have we really gotten this? This stupid
so And the answer I guess is yes. So everybody,

(51:27):
this is one of those names, whether you're into sport
or not, everybody knows Michael Jordan. He's a brand, he's
making headlines, been a brand for a long time. So
recent reports have been revealed that the sixth time NBA
champion has been spotted aboard Joy, which is an eighty
million dollars super yacht. Wow, and the price tag for

(51:50):
just one week on the water has left fans stunned. Okay, wow,
all right, so let me just wait a minute. So
first of all, anybody stunned that Michael Jordan has enough
money that he can really do anything? Yeah? And for
him it's not a big deal. How's that stunning? Yeah?

(52:12):
Like I said, he's been around a long time. His
brand's been around a long time and has made a
lot of money. Anybody stunned that a super yacht is
probably eighty million dollars worth a boat? I'm not stunned
by that. Now you're talking about the super yacht. Does
it stun you that a super yacht is eighty million
dollars and Michael Jordan can afford to be on it.
How's that stunning? So it's it's uh, and they're not

(52:36):
using our measurements. These are some of these people that
try to get us to go to the metric system
seventy meter vessel and it goes on to tell you
all about the ship, the boat and all that. So
I guse a yacht would be a boat, not a ship.
I guess. So anyway, so he enjoys all this. Now
here's where we get into where here comes the little

(52:58):
rub charge tering the yacht. I guess that he doesn't
own it. He just charters it, which is probably a
smarter move. Frankly, is around seven hundred and eighty thousand
dollars for a week. That's a lot of money. It's
a lot of money. But to Michael Jordan, it probably
isn't right. Okay, it's hard to imagine it. It probably
he don't faint. I'm just saying, I'm really trying to

(53:20):
walk that out. It's Michael Jordan. Okay, No, no, I'm
not hard like, does he own it and he leases it?

Speaker 14 (53:26):
No?

Speaker 3 (53:27):
No, this is when he's not the owner. This is
what he pays to have it for a week. But
it is there a group of people that on it
like chartering a plane. Think, so, yeah, okay, now they
they listed some guy. His name he was I want
you to listen to seven hundred billionaire that owns it. Now,
how long do I have it for that amount of month?
A week? Just a week for seven so it's one

(53:47):
hundred thousand dollars a day? Correct, pretty much? What So
I want you to think about this though, Listen, listen
to this, a billionaire that owns it. Here's here's how dumb.
Here's how dumb people are when they say things like
it's a big Eureka moment. He's he's getting he's not
getting up. People are not just upset that he's wealthy,
because you know, we're being told now we must hate

(54:07):
all wealthy people because somehow they this money was just
given to them without them working hard or being smart,
even though that's not true nine out of ten times.
So anyway, the yacht burns thousands of gallons of fuel
every day, releasing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
The more pollution. That's more pollution in a week than
most families generating in an entire year. That's what we're

(54:30):
mad about. Who kissers carbon footprints about? They don't like
the fact that I mean, look, I can't even imagine
you know those kind of numbers. Ye, just but don't
throw this. Not only that I want you to he
don't care about other people.

Speaker 9 (54:49):
Listen.

Speaker 3 (54:49):
I want you to listen to this brilliant commentator. The
word commentator is used for this comment. Okay, okay, you
know what we pay for this when we purchase him
sneakers every year. I'm also amazed at the price of
the yacht. I'm amazed at the price of his shoes,
but people pay it.

Speaker 9 (55:09):
You all do that good point.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
I'm not going to all right, raise your hand enough to.

Speaker 9 (55:13):
The Jordan's symbol alone is worth Yeah, ten billion's got.

Speaker 3 (55:18):
To be raise your hand. If anybody, and if you
have call us, I'd love to talk to you in
the next phone segment. Okay, how many of you have
ever been captured and the people forced you to buy
a pair of air Jordans? Has that ever happened to anybody?
Or the clothes any of it? See, I have I
have to have electricity, right, we all have to have

(55:41):
However you heat your home, whether it be gas or electric. Right,
we all have to have these, say when there's no choice. Right,
we have to buy food, right, right? Anybody have to
buy air Jordan's now, anybody? So you wait a minute,
let me be clear. So I could live my life
and never send a dime to Michael Jez Yeah, and
still have everything, and still have everything I need. I

(56:01):
might have everything I want, but I have everything I need. Right,
So there's there's not even required to give Michael Jordan
any money. Now are you shocked that when you buy
his brand that you do? You don't know how that works?
His pictures on it, it's a little it's a little
icon of him in the air. Of course, of course
he gets royalties. Do you know what he knocks down?

(56:22):
And somebody don't text Sorr. He beat me to it.
It's somewhere around three hundred and fifty million dollars a year, wow,
somewhere in there. So really, seven hundred and eighty thousand
dollars for a week on the yacht, it's nothing. Yeah,
I've got some numbers here for you, so s Nick,
But you're not thinking about that carbon footprint. Yeah, well,
that to me was the whole key of the whole Now, remember, maam,

(56:44):
Remember I'm not going to get upset with Taylor Swift
about her carbon footprint. I'm mad at Michael Jordan. Yeah,
so Rick, she plants trees.

Speaker 1 (56:51):
Correct.

Speaker 8 (56:52):
So let's say Jordan's a billionaire, right, so let's just
say yes, yes, okay, So you say, say you have
a billion dollars, So the yacht costs one hundred thousand
dollars a day, right.

Speaker 3 (57:04):
Pretty much, we figured that out pretty much.

Speaker 8 (57:06):
So if you have a billion dollars, you can rent
that yacht for one hundred thousand dollars a day.

Speaker 9 (57:12):
For ten thousand days. Okay, so you can have it
for ten thousand days. How long is that? That's twenty
seven years.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
Wow, you gotta get this.

Speaker 8 (57:23):
You can afford if you have nothing, if you have
a billion dollars, you can afford a one hundred thousand
dollars a day bill for twenty seven years.

Speaker 20 (57:32):
Right.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
And I'm sure he talks business on the yacht. So
it's a rite off. There you get there, You go, guys,
tell me there's not people really lamenting over this. This
doesn't affect your life. Had to throw the carbon in, right,
It doesn't affect your life at all. It's not a
you're in control, Well you contribute, Can we buy her?
Jordan's Michael Jordan gets money off fan. Yeah, he sure does.

(57:53):
He's got a lot. Yeah, he sure does.

Speaker 4 (57:56):
So will won't it?

Speaker 3 (57:57):
So if you believe all this carbon foot print scam,
then don't bomb. Nobody's gonna make you bomb. Yeah, I
don't bomb. I'm not paying that.

Speaker 9 (58:07):
Such a scam, by the way, it is such a scam.

Speaker 8 (58:09):
Do you see how they're just changing the markers every
ten years or whatever. Everything's always twelve years away. The
end of the world twelve years away. Jordan is a
great business man, by the way. I think he's the
one that has the quote that somebody asked him to
weigh in on a political you're right, and he goes, hey,
Republicans and Democrats by air, Jordan's I got nothing to
say about.

Speaker 3 (58:26):
That, exactly right, smart, I got my personal views. No
need for him to be public, it said, it's not
very good business for it to be public. Ope, so
it's ridiculous. You got too much time on your hand.

Speaker 4 (58:42):
We'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
This is the Rick Burgess Show. This is the show
that the world desperately needs, The Rick Burget Show.

Speaker 3 (59:02):
Thank you, America. It is funny. You're watching taxanation, a
lot of you running numbers based on how much income
Michael Jordan generates on a year, and most of your
landing right around the same thing, doing your math. Michael
Jordan spending that amount of money to be on a
yacht for a week based on his income. It's like

(59:25):
someone who makes one hundred thousand dollars a year spending
two hundred to two hundred and fifty dollars a week
for vacation. And I'll tell you you spending more than that.
But what about that carbon footprint? Yeah? Who cares? See
that's where I got you. Yeah, well, look I've seen it.
And then you know, because we've always been I'll tell

(59:46):
you one thing I wouldn't spend. It's just crazy I
was spending Isaac and then really, but what's more irresponsible
If you look a lot of times and if you're
doing it for your own enjoyment, it's nobody's business. But
he's not based on these percentages, it's like zero point
two five percent of his income. He's not being for him.

(01:00:10):
That's not irresponsible. But I mean, you might be out
there trying to make ends meet but by god, you're
gonna buy them football season tickets every year that are
very expensive. I would go as far as to say
that there's people out there making a lot less than
Michael Jordan that are a lot more irresponsible with their money.
So you know. But I mean, if it's something that

(01:00:30):
you have decided to do, and you can make it work,
and it's something you enjoy, it's really nobody's business, you know.

Speaker 6 (01:00:38):
And and.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
I don't care about your carbon footprint for print either
going to all the games this year? Who cares? Yeah?

Speaker 17 (01:00:45):
Some what?

Speaker 3 (01:00:46):
By the way, Greg hit on it, you carben footprint people.
First of all, if you believe it's a real thing, okay,
And then you believe that planting trees solves it, We've
covered it. Yeah, done believe anybody sold you on the
tree thing. I can't believe. I mean, if that's truly,
then then we don't have a problem. One of the
greatest scams ever. And I can't believe. I cannot believe

(01:01:09):
one person one bought into it that carbon credits are
a thing that is I wish I had have thought
of that. Oh my gosh, let me tell you why
it works, because I can move on with my life now,
and I think I'm doing so I can hand you
a little money and let you I'm really I'm really
buying you off from my conscious conscious and and so

(01:01:31):
people go, would you like to not be bothered by
all these people keep claiming that you're destroying the earth. Yeah,
I'd like to not be bothered by that. Do you
want to answer to them? I really would like to
have an answer. I'll save some carbon credits, tell them
you did that? Sounds great, planning some trees to offset
with you. And then you go, would you can't? Can't?
It's not it's not even important to me if you
really are doing anything. It just gives me something to
say at the cocktail party. I wonder how many trees

(01:01:53):
actually got planted to you? Really? Really you know what
you are? You're just buying them off. Yeah, that's it. Yep,
so brilliant move. And whoever came up with it, let
me let me give props.

Speaker 8 (01:02:04):
Yes, now somebody is that market is a around one
hundred billion dollar market undeg.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
From what I could see on congratulations. Yeah, whoever came
up with that brilliant, brilliant move, playing on people's guilt
and manipulating them and scamming them. Really well done. So
going to someone said asked Greg that Michael Jordan also
has some sort of lawsuit with NASCAR.

Speaker 9 (01:02:29):
Yeah, I'm he's not happy about it.

Speaker 3 (01:02:31):
What's going on? It's about I think it's about the
profit sharing off TV and stuff that basically all the
teams are independent contractors and NASCAR pretty much owns everything.
I'm not sure about the details, but it's tied up
in that, okay, And because you know he's an owner,
him and Denny Hamlin on a team and they filed
us a lawsuit on it. They're basically something about charters

(01:02:52):
and all you know, which is like a franchise. So
what they're saying is the way not NASCAR is set
up right now. The teams themselves are having a really
hard time making a profit. Yeah, because there's like a
couple that made a profit like the nineties when this
year advertisers were just paying anything to be on there.
Because you know, it's a different world now.

Speaker 6 (01:03:09):
I think they said, on average team owner in NASCAR
this year lost about two million dollars on average. There
was only a few teams that profited from this year's season.

Speaker 3 (01:03:22):
So why would I continue that right, I don't know
enough about it to really speak.

Speaker 8 (01:03:26):
But taking NASCAR to court. I misunderstood this. And he's
claiming that the NASCAR has a monopoly.

Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
Correct, Okay, he's trying to get the owners and the
teams a better deal bottom line. Yeah, because NASCAR owns
a lot of tracks too. Well, how about if you
are if you are someone in NASCAR, it's good to
have him in there. So he may get in there,
he may make a difference for people for the future.

Speaker 9 (01:03:52):
It could rewrite the rules of the entire sport, is
what I'm reading right now.

Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
Also this one, do y'all know about this? I'm gonna
ask you a question. Big story, you know, Lane Kiffin
going to l s U. Big story. H Hey bird,
how are you? I'm good man, thank you. I was
wondering if you heard about the Kiffin story on him

(01:04:18):
abandoning his dog Juice. It's a crazy story. I heard
something about that, because you remember his dog Juice was
like followed by so many people on yeah, tick whatever,
you're right, yeah, and all this, and they're saying, basically,
he was faking like he was all about his dog,
and when he left, he just left it. I don't know,
he said, I'm not one hundred percent on the assure

(01:04:39):
on the details, which that's never stopped us. I was
hoping maybe y'all could find out, which I'm trying now.
I believe he may have abandoned the dog. Abandoned the
dog due to the lack of time, because it takes
too much time to take care of it. Well, when
we say abandoned the dog, I doubt he just drove
off and he probably gave it like you said, Yeah,
he might have did what I did. He didn't drive off.

(01:05:00):
But I think they're talking about, you know, because it
was portrayed like it's him and into the dog. I
remember people talking about it and they said old Juice
is more popular than him and all this, and then
that mont it's closed. You maybe it was an opportunity
to get followers and a good idea, well to promote
your product and all that.

Speaker 13 (01:05:17):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:05:18):
Speedy said, though, I mean that's like trying to compete
with Jordan on sneakers. I mean Kirk Kurbstreet owns the dog. Yeah,
he's got the dog thing. By the way, Wow, Kirk,
I really like when they say a bandon the dog.
I doubt he left it tied on a post out
in the front yard and drove off, you know, or
or dropped it off somewhere and hit the gas. Yeah,
the word abandon is more intriguing. Other words, he didn't

(01:05:38):
have it. He might have made arrangements that he can't
take Juice and take care of him through this transition,
and Juice now has a new owner or a family
member has him now or whatever.

Speaker 6 (01:05:47):
Or he could have left him and said, let me
get settled and I'll get him. Could you watch him
for X amount of time?

Speaker 3 (01:05:52):
Who knows?

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
Who knows?

Speaker 3 (01:05:53):
But this is a story apparently. Yeah, I mean I've
heard it too. I'm kind of like that person. I
didn't get the details. But well, no, maybe he's being
a responsible pet owner, you know, kind of like me
was coming where he realized that the life he will
now be living does not lend itself to the proper

(01:06:13):
care of a dog or the best life of the dog.
So you now put the dog in a position to
have a better life. What's wrong with that? Yeah? To me,
that's been horrible videos, you say, where they kick the
dog out of the car and take off and the
dog's chasing the car you know, because I brought the world, Hey,
I love animals, when I had to do the hard
truth many times the way animals are treated. We don't

(01:06:34):
love animals. We just love to have them. And that's
certainly okay because we're human beings and we we can
do that. That's fine as long as you're not mistreating it.
But I think that if you look at making arrangements
for the dog's betterment, that's truly loving the dog versus
I just want the dog to be around for me,

(01:06:54):
even though it doesn't have a great life and I
don't have the time to spend with it.

Speaker 6 (01:06:58):
So the report I'm seeing out from out kick it
says that a lot of folks are swearing that Juice
has spent the last two years with handler Tom Smith
of wild Rose Kennels, where Juice was born. They claimed
technically Laying bought the dog, but really never stayed with him.

Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
It's more of a mascot for the university. And I'm
saying up there somebody said the university actually owns the dog.

Speaker 4 (01:07:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
Yeah, people are saying that it was a p R prop.
Kiffen never never owned the dog. Yeah, it was never his.
It was just a right to get people. Yeah, it
was more of an old miss thing than a given.
Yeah that makes more sense, so yeah, but but never
stops people from trying to But I want kurk abandoned
him Rick, Yeah right, I gotta, I gotta talk to

(01:07:46):
Kirk kurb Street. Look. I like a Golden Retriever as
much as any about I've owned. I've owned two of them,
and they're wonderful, wonderful dogs. But this stuff where Kirk
gets on the airplane and his dog's over there with
his own bed, and he sits here and talks to
him like the dog can hear what he say, and
starts laying out the day and telling the dog it's

(01:08:08):
gonna go. And you saw the same That's weird. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:08:11):
I saw Kirk last night with Al Michaels on the
NFL call, and I thought, is this the least exciting
thing he does all week? Because you know he loves
college football and I know the Amazon Prime game is
something he does for the jack, But he looked tired.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
Can I ask he has been? Can I ask a
Kirk question? And I'm a huge Kirk Kurbstreet fan, huge.
I know he has multiple sons, you know that played
a little. I think one of them was like coach
him now or working with the team or something. Does
Kirk is he married? Yeah? I think so. I mean
I know at one time he was. Is he currently married?

(01:08:48):
I don't believe so. I don't know because the way,
the way this was this dog, and the way with
his kids, and I never hear him talk about his
wife very much. Did she go through some illness here?

Speaker 17 (01:09:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:09:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:09:02):
Didn't they battle that you did they have a tough
time or whatever? It's like I mean, and it may
just be that, like you said, Greg, she's she didn't
want to be talked about a lot. Yeah, but you know,
I just a shout out every now and Hey, but
I been a lot of time with the dog. Yeah.
So but hey, dog is going thrip well. And I
tell you one thing this, this dog's less of a

(01:09:22):
hassle than Lee Corso was. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. I
thought that was gonna kill Kirk. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:09:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:09:29):
Back to Lane Kiffen. You know, hairdressers know everything. We
talked about this. You know when your mom ever went
and got her hair, did she came back with all
the stories?

Speaker 3 (01:09:38):
You You can't get any got something. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:09:40):
Uh, according to I guess the hairdresser for his daughter,
who she knows. She said that Lane technically never paid
for it. The school did because everything he wanted the
school paid for. So since leaving Ole Miss, nothing really
belongs to him. So they're they're claiming he never really
owned the dog. If you if you want to get
tech and everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:10:00):
On Texas saying say, yeah, p see anybody that thinks
Lane Kiffin took care of that dog. You did not
know the story? Now, yeah, the university used it as
that pr which is smart. There's Lane and juice.

Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:10:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
By the way, that's the greatest pet arrangement ever. I
get props to Kivin for that. I get to play
with the dog. Then you take it away. I get
to play with the dog, and that's it. You don't
have to worry about what about the dog. It's not
be visiting Greg's grandkids. I had a blast it. Now
I'm out.

So that's a new Strange Encounters episode twenty one out

overly surprising. Text Nation, What is your favorite Christmas song?
And when should you start listening to it? First of all, Greg,
let's just go ahead and say it. I don't want
to speak for you, but I will give you the floor.

(01:13:21):
You're not really a fan of Christmas music period. Well,
I don't that or Southern gospel. He goes, I didn't
say that. I'm not excited. It's okay and it's festive,
but I'm not going to just sit around and ride
around and listen to it. Now we're mingling at someone's
house during the holidays, and they won't have a little
on the background. Fine, but if it's my main source, hey,

(01:13:43):
I'm listening to music. Probably not, so let me be
sure I've got this right. You're in the slightly dented
ram okay, yes, and you're driving it and you're buying
you play a Christmas song except Brother Kane's God Rest
You Marry, gentlemen, I'll play it. That's it. That's it.
So that'd be your favorite song. We got that established. Yeah,
so uh, I'm gonna farewell on this all right, so

(01:14:04):
you will not listen to it other than Brother Kane
got version of God Rescue also Christmas and Dixie with Alabama.
You just threw that. Isn't that?

Speaker 16 (01:14:13):
I know?

Speaker 3 (01:14:14):
I like that you do, yes, but you'll go get
it or does it have to come on? It has
to come on? But I'll stay with it. Now, Brother Kane,
will you go get it or go get it? Okay,
that's the only one. You'll go get it? Yes, Now,
if Alabama comes on, I turn it up. Okay, but
you won't pursue it. It has to come to you exactly,
got it. So if we're at a gathering and we
want to have a little of that, I will suggest
what about Alabama? That's you? That's your two Yeah? Okay, speedy, Uh,

(01:14:40):
this is Silent Night is my favorite. What do you
mean Silent Night like a certain version? You like that
Mariah Carry's song. No, so I have to say the
artist and everything. Is there a certain version?

Speaker 6 (01:14:52):
I mean you don't have to now you don't just yeah,
Silent Night, White Christmas and stuff, but Solid Night Christmas
makes me think of my my dad's dad, Pat, who
we call Pepaul.

half hour trip, we listened to Christmas music the entirety.

Speaker 3 (01:15:22):

question was, even though you don't listen to it except
for Brother Kane's God Rescue, Marry Gentlemen, and Christmas, if

They didn't paint right, just a little bit.

Speaker 12 (01:42:45):
Next time you're probably gonna get wax full body whack.

Speaker 3 (01:42:49):
No, no, that's not true. It's common when you get
a little older that you know you want to keep
your feet healthy. And if your your wife's there and
you they say, well we can do a pedican.

Speaker 12 (01:43:01):
Well, last your reason, I lost some weight, you know,

two of them.

Speaker 3 (01:43:43):
Do so what it was doing?

to say nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:43:48):
Probably he might. Well what's what's like Terry think about it,
you buddy? Oh?

Speaker 12 (01:43:52):
He loves it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:54):
He went with you to get it.

about that particular food plot where I sat down and
couldn't see anything?

Speaker 5 (01:44:21):

(01:44:56):
And I said, is is this is this? When do
we leave it this way? Is this is where you
go just to see if you still shoot? Well, I said,
I think I have a window right between two limbs
right here.

Speaker 12 (01:45:05):
Well, that sycamore tree needs to be cut anyway. I
don't like a sycamore tree. They make people see a sycamore.

Speaker 4 (01:52:50):

Speaker 7 (01:52:50):
Hey, yesterday y'all were talking about beard maintenance and hair
maintenance and wondering if y'all had ever seen a Facebook
page called barber Chops.

Speaker 14 (01:53:02):
The barber up in Massive Peak.

Speaker 7 (01:53:03):
Of Long Island and he has a challenge where he's got.

Speaker 14 (01:53:07):
A through let wheel in his in his shop and
young kids like to come in there and challenge him.
He's got a fifty dollars prize on there that they
all try to win, but they typically fail.

Speaker 3 (01:53:19):
And uh they is there a full moon? Was it
a full moon overnight?

Speaker 9 (01:53:25):
He was doing a bad job of telling it.

Speaker 3 (01:53:26):
Okay, it hard is there a full moon?

Speaker 9 (01:53:29):
I do that all the time. It's it's easy to
tell to do a bad job of telling the story.
But yeah, it's funny.

Speaker 8 (01:53:33):
These kids spin the wheel and most of the time
they end up getting like a crazy like checkerboard haircut.

Speaker 3 (01:53:38):
Okay, so if it doesn't land on the money, they
have to take the haircut.

Speaker 4 (01:53:42):
Yeah, that's key.

Speaker 3 (01:53:43):
It's that's a key part of the story.

Speaker 9 (01:53:45):
It is hilarious.

Speaker 8 (01:53:45):
These kids are walking out of there with the worst haircut.
And I mean because some kids get like a scullet.

Speaker 9 (01:53:52):
I mean it is that it's bad.

Speaker 3 (01:53:54):
I got brought it home. I'll give somebody checked the
moon chart.

Speaker 9 (01:53:58):
Yeah okay, Friday, I got second and uh.

Speaker 10 (01:54:10):
Go ahead, Yeah, this that was murders and from Bread.
I wanted to ask Gary what what's he charged to

track anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:54:37):
Uh No, I donet got too old to all that.
Rick Burgers show unscreen phone calls go ahead.

Speaker 26 (01:54:44):
Oh wow, good morning. I follow the line so long.
I forgot what I called for almost my first time caller,
and I have been listening since the Rick and Love
a show and guests to Alabama.

Speaker 3 (01:54:59):
Oh thank you very mu.

Speaker 26 (01:55:00):
I thought I had something disrespectfully to share with Rick
on the Mary did you know songs? I love that song,
But I'm beg to differ with you that she knew
all that when God calls you, when God calls you

(01:55:21):
into obedience and you do it, he does not reveal all.
Of course, she knew that he was God's son. She
was carrying him, but she had no idea he was
gonna walk on water and all that he did. I mean,
we don't we don't see what if we're obeeding to

(01:55:42):
God and we follow his will, we don't know what
we don't see before of what the outcome is gonna
be we just trust by faith, right, But.

Speaker 3 (01:55:53):
In this particular case, and it's okay to to say,
like somebody said a minute ago, she just keeps answering
the questions. Yes, yeah, But but Gabriel lays out what's
going to happen pretty clear. And then of course Jesus
himself began to tell everyone, I'm sure including his mama.
You know, you know what's what's what's going on. And

(01:56:16):
so Mary was not uninformed. I don't know if you've
ever read the prayer that she Mary was not. We
always portrayed Mary. She's certainly not deity. Don't misunderstand me.
I totally disagree with that.

Speaker 16 (01:56:26):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:56:27):
And but is that she was not just some random
little young girl that was picked. She was a had
proven to be a powerful faith and and knew the
prophecies very well, as you see in her her prayer
and her song. She was had a great depth of

(01:56:48):
God and what was promised. And Gabriel told her that
she would be the one who would be carrying the
Christ Child. And so there's a lot that she knew.
And that's okay to say that the answer is yes,
and enjoyed the song this is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:57:15):

Speaker 12 (01:59:04):
It's good.

Speaker 3 (01:59:05):
No, it's not good that y'all need to try to
work it out.

Speaker 12 (01:59:09):
And he said on my knee.

Speaker 3 (01:59:10):
He just texted me and said, how I'm about to
stop by? And I said, well, Gary is here, So
he's a he's at that door right there. Yeah, and
Gary want you go let him in? Oh, let's see
what happens here. They came on.

Speaker 4 (01:59:27):
A sudden.

I am the ghost of Christmas past.

Speaker 4 (01:59:35):
And I'm about to kick.

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
Some some some some booty.

Speaker 17 (01:59:44):
This is awkward.

Speaker 3 (01:59:45):
Now there we go.

Speaker 12 (01:59:47):
Man, it's good to see you behind him again.

Speaker 22 (01:59:50):
Look at that you cannot see you see the red
on the knee. From there down it is nothing but blood.
This is I think if I'm not gonna stake We've
been together one time since this, a day that lives
in infamy.

Speaker 3 (02:00:06):
You only seen one time since this one time?

Speaker 14 (02:00:08):
Oh?

Speaker 22 (02:00:08):
Yes, wow, you proud of yourself?

Speaker 3 (02:00:13):
The heat marks.

Speaker 12 (02:00:16):
I wish that I would get a little insanitive over that.
You know, you mentioned into that every time you speak.

Speaker 22 (02:00:24):
Every time I speak, it is like I drive up
to churches and they'll have a four wheeler on my
in my parking. The evil y'all got to see the
evil laugh that's going on here.

Speaker 12 (02:00:40):
Look, yes, sir, you know I didn't really mean to
excu you that bad.

Speaker 4 (02:00:45):
You use live Ammo.

Speaker 12 (02:00:47):
Well, I mean I don't know you could buy blanks
or not.

Speaker 3 (02:00:53):
That's what the problem with is.

Speaker 22 (02:00:54):
And so the show must go on in Alabama when
you have good old boys that just go to uh,
the prank at a whole new level.

Speaker 11 (02:01:03):
I mean, can I just ask this?

Speaker 22 (02:01:05):
What were you thinking?

Speaker 4 (02:01:08):
Well?

Speaker 7 (02:01:09):
What live?

Speaker 22 (02:01:11):
What causes a guy to go? You know what, I'm
gonna pull prank on someone, But you know what I'm
gonna do. I'm going to put an actual bullet in
the gun.

Speaker 12 (02:01:21):
Well, I missed you, you know, full five feet? Yeah,
I mean I I wasn't aiming straight at you, that
is true.

Speaker 3 (02:01:30):
He was not aiming at us.

Speaker 22 (02:01:33):
How do you know you slumped over in the gator.
You didn't even know what was happening. Did ye confront
your past?

Speaker 3 (02:01:42):
I think you interviewing him and breaking this down might
really help you. Well, I mean this is that therapy,
did you frankly is long overdue.

Speaker 22 (02:01:50):
We need a panel of psychologists right in front of
us to look and see what's going on going on?

Speaker 3 (02:01:56):
So you you've always wanted to ask him?

Speaker 12 (02:01:57):
Why?

Speaker 3 (02:01:58):
Why live am o?

Speaker 27 (02:01:59):
Why?

Speaker 22 (02:02:00):
What were you thinking?

Speaker 4 (02:02:01):
Well?

Speaker 12 (02:02:02):
I just uh, you know, I had thought about it,
and I asked, you know, I text Rick about me
bringing the gun, you know, and which his phone was dead.
He never did get that, so I just said, well,
might as well do it? Good if I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 3 (02:02:16):
Yeah, there's the words of wisdom there they are. I
might as well do it if I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 12 (02:02:24):
Yeah, I don't. I don't believe in nothing doing anything.

Speaker 22 (02:02:27):
You had that the wig way, and I don't think
we'd ever met before then, had we?

Speaker 3 (02:02:33):
No, I don't think we'd ever met. So why did
you have to go with the wig?

Speaker 22 (02:02:38):
I would have never recognized you intimidating.

Speaker 3 (02:02:42):
Well, it's possible that Garnett had met you.

Speaker 12 (02:02:44):
Maybe, Yeah, I think going were struggling right now.

Speaker 3 (02:02:47):
You're just throwing.

Speaker 22 (02:02:50):
You like this kind of stuff.

Speaker 12 (02:02:52):
Oh yeah, No, you don't like it.

Speaker 3 (02:02:54):
I love it, so you don't have you ever felt? Honestly,
I think this is what would you like to ask
him if he's ever felt bad about it.

Speaker 22 (02:03:04):
I know he doesn't, but I'll go ahead and tell
you they had been elected governor, you would have been
a sworn enemy of the state of Alabama.

Speaker 12 (02:03:12):
Well, you know I endorsed you up.

Speaker 22 (02:03:15):
I wondered why I lost now where it is, Gary said,
I want him to be governor.

Speaker 12 (02:03:20):
But you know, I wanted to really tell you this,
and I'm honest about this. I got a lot of
hate mail on account of that brank and it was
people that hated they didn't see you.

Speaker 22 (02:03:40):
For just a split second, I thought he's going to
try to make me feel bad. I was like, I
know him, there's no good. That hard is three sizes
too small.

Speaker 12 (02:03:53):
It is, uh just telling her you don't have my
phone number?

Speaker 2 (02:03:57):
No, no, I do not.

Speaker 12 (02:03:59):
I'll try to get it from me. If you will
call me in, I'll meet you for lunch one day
down a Childing County.

Speaker 22 (02:04:06):
You know people you're infamous down there. I mean everybody goes,
oh yo, that we we would expect nothing less from Gary.

Speaker 3 (02:04:13):
Well, do you have a hard time, even going back
to the farm. Now, well the.

Speaker 22 (02:04:18):
Farm, we've been there for just a few times, and
I've only been to the wooded area one time.

Speaker 3 (02:04:23):
Yeah, I went back and looked at it so you
could look look at look it in the face back
the accident.

Speaker 22 (02:04:27):
Yah, it's kind of at the back of the scene
of the accident. But yeah, no, I still speak in
churches and events, but yeah, I have a hard time.

Speaker 3 (02:04:38):
When you cross over and it says Chilton County. There's
a little certain there's a cold chill, isn't it.

Speaker 22 (02:04:42):
Yeah, and everybody that's I mean, the the the crowd
that's new to the show, they don't understand the deep divide.

Speaker 12 (02:04:50):
You know, it has been eleven years. Wow, July eleven years?

Speaker 3 (02:04:55):
Are you serious?

Speaker 9 (02:04:57):
He knows the date, y'all?

Speaker 3 (02:04:58):
He sure does.

Speaker 12 (02:05:00):
Twenty field eleven years ago.

Speaker 17 (02:05:02):
What time?

Speaker 12 (02:05:04):
Oh it's about two thirty, right.

Speaker 3 (02:05:07):
He does remember it.

Speaker 22 (02:05:08):
I'll tell you my wife, if she was here, she
would say, at some point during the day, I would
just kind of walk.

Speaker 13 (02:05:14):
In and go.

Speaker 22 (02:05:15):
You know, I could have died.

Speaker 3 (02:05:16):
I know, I know, And uh, but you didn't. Gary's
you did? That part's left out, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (02:05:23):
Still?

Speaker 3 (02:05:23):
So he knows how to pull that off.

Speaker 12 (02:05:25):
You still here. You a little bit slimmer than you was,
but you're still here.

Speaker 3 (02:05:30):
And you and you and your shin's a little tougher.

Speaker 22 (02:05:32):
Yeah right, I mean they're they're calcified pretty good.

Speaker 3 (02:05:37):
Well, you got a lot of hate mail.

Speaker 12 (02:05:40):
Yeah, I got a lot of hate mal about it.

Speaker 22 (02:05:41):
That was a great line I have givenim that what
is it?

Speaker 3 (02:05:46):
What is it you said? If you had had one
of those little GoPros on the on the bill of
your hat.

Speaker 12 (02:05:51):
Oh, I'm telling you.

Speaker 3 (02:05:53):
You know, we didn't. We didn't video it.

Speaker 22 (02:05:55):
Yeah, I had no clue what was happening, So don't
blame me.

Speaker 4 (02:05:58):
You looked over here at me.

Speaker 22 (02:06:00):
You should have been video I was like.

Speaker 3 (02:06:01):
I was totally. If there's one regret that we have,
and there's many rights not having that GoPro on that had.

Speaker 22 (02:06:08):
Yeah, so the regret was not having live regret?

Speaker 3 (02:06:12):
Yeah yeah, Well you know, you know what Garnett said,
the difference between an average brank and a great brink
two words live.

Speaker 22 (02:06:20):
Well, I just sold them.

Speaker 13 (02:06:21):
You know.

Speaker 12 (02:06:22):
The only thing I hate about it is nine on
one got involved and it may have took away from
other stuff that they needed to do.

Speaker 3 (02:06:28):
Okay, Gary, but uh but not no, Geary. That we
all had to go through that. I know we were
actually told that by the actual nine one one. Yeah, yeah,
you do a good job.

Speaker 21 (02:06:38):
That.

Speaker 22 (02:06:39):
We were also told that that was an illegal act.

Speaker 3 (02:06:41):
So well, it's just don't leave that. It's crazy.

Speaker 22 (02:06:44):
Sure, the Statute of Limitations says, run out if not
fortunate to surround the building right now?

Speaker 3 (02:06:50):
Eleven years how about this. I can't believe it's been there.

Speaker 22 (02:06:55):
You know, we can't either. You know, we see it
seems like yesterday.

Speaker 3 (02:06:57):
I bet we see through prescripture in the Book of
James that even says counted his joy. You're you're your
your faith was tested and it passed. We heard the
nine one one recording. Yeah, I mean you you you
never never one time entered into sin.

Speaker 22 (02:07:14):
I was more concerned that my friends had been shot.

Speaker 3 (02:07:17):
That's a legitimate concern.

Speaker 22 (02:07:19):
At uh, needless to.

Speaker 3 (02:07:22):
Say I had it.

Speaker 12 (02:07:22):
Well, I know I heard you hollering going across a pastor,
you know, screaming and hollering, and you know, a grown man,
I didn't think you'd do it.

Speaker 22 (02:07:30):
But a grown man doesn't use live Amma on a prank.
So let's could define the term grown man.

Speaker 3 (02:07:38):
All right, so well, so let me ask you this.
Do you feel bad at all that, before a brief run,
I'm trying to help you, he does not that that
there's a there's a guy right here that we all
that we all love. Hm, that for a moment he
thought that it was not possible but likely that one,
maybe two friends had been shot. Do you feel bad

(02:08:00):
about creating that illusion?

Speaker 7 (02:08:03):
No?

Speaker 12 (02:08:03):
Not really? Wow, honest, I mean, I mean, I'm I'm just.

Speaker 22 (02:08:11):
You probably attend church every Sunday too.

Speaker 12 (02:08:13):
That's I'm here for one reason, and that that reason
is to just, you know, just bring stuff to people's
lives that they've never saw before.

Speaker 3 (02:08:26):
It's gotten saved.

Speaker 22 (02:08:30):
Maybe his mission's over.

Speaker 4 (02:08:32):
Now, how about this.

Speaker 3 (02:08:33):
I've never been on the edge of my seat to
hear a sentence finish like that.

Speaker 22 (02:08:41):
Well, it's good to see you, ready to say, Oh yeah,

He don't forget it.

Speaker 6 (02:11:17):
Was amazing. I mean, it's like it just happened. Yeah,
he said, it brought it all back like he was there.

He bowed up on Gary. That's pretty funny.

Speaker 12 (02:11:31):
Gary, Well you so y'all want caught laughing now, do you?

Speaker 4 (02:11:36):
Gary?

Speaker 3 (02:11:37):
Honestly, can you find anywhere in your in the deepest
parts of your soul that you regret that and think, well,
maybe he was just asked by the man he got.
That's one of his finest regret that. Your history of pranking,
I mean it's top three.

Speaker 12 (02:11:52):
Though I would have got, you know, my mirandom rights.
You're what read to me what Miranda rights?

Speaker 3 (02:12:00):
Okay?

Speaker 12 (02:12:00):
Okay, uh like I did the last time a couple
of years ago. Uh, it was worth it, though, it
was worth it. You know, nobody got hurt. You know,
I will say this though, that county was was not
happy with what happened. Well, and resources were used. They
kind of they kind of over now, you know, kind

(02:12:21):
of bringing it up. Been nice to them, try and
make up for it. Oh yeah, I'm about I'm about
ready to go.

Speaker 3 (02:12:29):
Take me now. That's too much, wouldn't it.

Speaker 12 (02:12:31):
So when you tell you what, Yeah, I took one
other day. Something woke me up real fast and I
jumped up. You know, I thought I missed school bus.

Speaker 3 (02:12:40):
It was so in the world you're dreaming back in school.

Speaker 12 (02:12:44):
It's kind of like it.

Speaker 6 (02:12:45):
Well, okay, to stop that, I will say we did
make a step forward, y'all did I'll out and I
stood there and we took a picture. Yeah, and y'all
seemed like maybe that maybe this was a big moment
that y'all can just move on. I know you have
moved on, But for Scott, I.

Speaker 3 (02:13:06):
Hasn't Gary moved on like you know. Two days later
he checked it as a win. Yeah, and then he
was done.

Speaker 12 (02:13:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:13:12):
Done.

Speaker 12 (02:13:12):
He's old wed, you know.

Speaker 3 (02:13:13):
And I will tell you this and one of the
box seats already talked about it. They've seen Scott at
some of his you know, camps and conferences, and they say,
if you bring it up, he won't talk about it.

Speaker 6 (02:13:24):
He's tired of Maybe this is what he needed for closure,
so now he can you know, maybe just seeing you.

Speaker 12 (02:13:31):
And maybe a quick avoided me as much.

Speaker 3 (02:13:36):
Yeah, maybe the new day. I don't know that count.

Speaker 12 (02:13:38):
I seen him walking down the sidewalk here a couple
of years ago and he crossed one on the other side.

Speaker 3 (02:13:43):
Well, it upset him, and I think I think that's
it's been with him for years.

Speaker 9 (02:13:48):
He shot at him, Garry.

Speaker 3 (02:13:51):
I mean, he didn't hit him. What's going on? What
do you do?

Speaker 12 (02:13:53):
I know it's something crawling on my back.

Speaker 3 (02:13:58):
I know it's not guilt. No, that's nowhere near him, right, Yeah,
it's got like a repeller.

Speaker 4 (02:14:04):
Right.

Speaker 3 (02:14:05):
Do you remember the first time the two of us met.

Speaker 12 (02:14:09):

Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:14:11):

There's a long while I'm in a holler called wolf holler. Yeah,
and he starts making that sound whatever, what's that? Yeah,
I'm having to I'm walking out with a climber on
my back, and here I come.

you know, I get feeling down a little bit and
I look at it now, I laugh a little bit.

Speaker 3 (02:14:43):
He has a video of scaring our mother. He's in
her eighties, and he watches it when he's feeling down.

Speaker 12 (02:14:49):
Yeah, you know she watches. I mean she follows me
on Facebook.

Speaker 3 (02:14:54):
Well, I bet Dawson doesn't.

Speaker 12 (02:14:57):
I don't know who used to, but I think he.

Speaker 3 (02:15:00):
I'm sure he does not.

Speaker 6 (02:15:02):
Is it true that you said you'd rather lose a
limb than stop pranking people?

Speaker 12 (02:15:06):
Oh yeah, you might will cut on my legs, though.

Speaker 3 (02:15:10):
I'll leave you one leg too.

a two parter and it is I don't even remember
what album it was on, but it was a it
was a good one. And I'm shocked that Gary told
us it was eleven years ago. Does he have that right?
I don't know if he's right about that. I don't know,

(02:17:49):
but anyway I can find it. Yeah, I think it was.

A mistake or not.

Speaker 3 (02:28:28):
Okay, okay, go ahead, all right, So.

Speaker 17 (02:28:31):
We're going to dinner. On the way to dinner, she
rips one.

Speaker 3 (02:28:36):
Okay, that's not true.

Speaker 4 (02:28:38):
That is true.

Speaker 17 (02:28:40):
It was funny.

Speaker 3 (02:28:41):
No odor, we laughed.

Speaker 17 (02:28:44):
Wasn't a big deal, right, Okay, I ain't nothing. It's
a racket. Listen, that kind of stuffs funny. I mean,
that's I'm I'm glad she did.

Speaker 6 (02:28:56):
It was first date, you, that's first day that women
really get embarrassed by just a little bit of nervousness.

Speaker 17 (02:29:04):
Well, she didn't, but I like the fact that she
didn't care.

Speaker 3 (02:29:07):
Okay.

Speaker 17 (02:29:08):
So on the way back from dinner, I had one. Okay,
and and normally I would not do that because that's
not what you do. But because she let one go,
I let one. Okay.

Speaker 25 (02:29:23):
But then the my did have odor, unfortunately, and it
was it was it was not great. And then I
tried to listen.

Speaker 29 (02:29:33):
So but I let the windows down, I sprayed something.
I tried all I could do to get that out
of the car. Then I tried to call her when
I dropped her off a little later, and.

Speaker 4 (02:29:45):
She blocked me.

Speaker 3 (02:29:46):
Yeah you think you think yea, yeah.

Speaker 17 (02:29:49):
Listen, here's my here's my argument, though, she started it.
I mean because she ripped one. Was I not clear
to rip one too?

Speaker 3 (02:29:57):
You are not And this is the problem. If you
were marrying, it's a lot different. But first date is
this is this thing where when they do certain things,
it's cute and and and calls for a little giggle.
And then if if if they just getting to know you. Yeah,
I mean you're you're you're laying things out that she
needs to tolerate as a husband, not as a not

(02:30:18):
as a potential boyfriend, especially first date. Yeah. That that
that was a mystery. That was a bad mystery.

Speaker 9 (02:30:27):
Yeah, I got bad news. If she slaps your first
you can't slap her back.

Speaker 3 (02:30:30):

Speaker 19 (02:31:38):
There was a guy called the other day that mentioned
Quincy Brobak childhood memories. Every Sunday. You know, we'd hit
better showies. We had also hit a place called the
Western Cis. But I've heard of the year's people referenced
Western Cizland the Western Are there two distinct restaurants or
are they just talking about the same one?

Speaker 3 (02:31:58):
Now it's two different ones. Western Sizzler is one. We
mostly just went by Sizzler, didn't. Yeah, our Sizzler when
we were growing up, and it's still there, you said,
And cahun Can doesn't. Jeral Caterers Sizzling, That's what I mean?
He said, Are they two different things? And I said, yes,
we have a Western Sizzling, Yeah, where we grew still there.
And I thought Jerry Kese was just talking about eating there,

(02:32:20):
not his favorite place, because there was an incident that happened.
He said, we're gonna keep him going, yeah uh so, yeah, sizzler,
And I'm like you, I thought that was just called
the sizzler. We didn't have one of them. We had
a sizzling, right Western. He was asking, are those two
different things? I just think they are. They are two
different things. You wasn't that one in Aniston? Was it sizzling? Okay? Yeah?

Speaker 8 (02:32:42):
Yeah, yeah, everything I see is Western sizzling and then
just sizzler.

Speaker 3 (02:32:47):
Yeah, just a sizzler. Yeah yeah, I thought so. Hello,
unscreen phone calls, You're on the Rick Burgess.

Speaker 4 (02:32:53):
Showy patch man?

Speaker 3 (02:33:01):
What's going on?

Speaker 12 (02:33:02):
And happy birthday?

Speaker 20 (02:33:04):
Addler?

Speaker 27 (02:33:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:33:07):

It's okay, but I know Carolyn's been thinking about Adler?

Speaker 9 (02:33:16):
Now a nice speedy Sorry about that sweat, No worries
at all. Hey Gary, Larry, why do you want me
to call you after the show?

Speaker 20 (02:33:30):
We wouldn't get to talk to you and.

Speaker 3 (02:33:35):
Sounds that makes sense. So you just want a phone call.
There's no real reason. You just wanted to call you, right, Okay, Okay,
Well he'll talk to you.

Speaker 15 (02:33:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:33:46):
I don't know that I would be highly anticipating that one.

Speaker 8 (02:33:49):
Yeah, just you know, straight real talk I've got a
lot of podcasts have to put out and then pick
up my kids and you know that.

Speaker 9 (02:33:56):
But there's no no offense or anything like that.

Speaker 3 (02:33:58):
But you call them when you're in the van, no,
just cause when you can.

Speaker 6 (02:34:04):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't understand should that'd probably
be around twelve thirty.

Speaker 9 (02:34:11):
Can't do it, can't do it.

Speaker 3 (02:34:12):
Please don't attempt in time. Please don't attempt to understand it. Okay,
uh hello, Rick Birders show, unscreen phone calls, go ahead, Okay,
we continue Rick Berger's show. Unscreen phone calls go aheading.

Speaker 7 (02:34:28):
I love.

Speaker 3 (02:34:33):
I blame Lane Kiffin for this. Yeah, yeah, don't, don't
you guys, That's who I blame for all this. You know,
he's upset yet another fan base. Do you know how
bad the Tennessee people hate him? They named the sewage
plan after him, and I guess you would put the
USC people hated him. Oh well, I left him at there.
The old Miss people now hate him, right, he just

(02:34:54):
leaves the trailer. Does he get kind of from the
old Miss fans? Thanks for the memories. I think it
was it was like it was a good run. Of course,
you don't think it upsets people when you go eleven
and one and make the playoff and your coach leave
that finally get there, you finally got your show. That
that all the mess will probably win it all without him.
Now I'm saying, I mean in a movie. In a movie,

(02:35:18):
I think you're right, they wouldn't want to play. If
it was a movie. Watch out. They should have a
home game first round. Watch out. If you're leaving us,
have a great weekend. It's the Christmas Cash count Down
starting Monday. You got more box seats coming up.

want to give him taters.

Speaker 3 (02:37:32):
By the way.

Speaker 6 (02:37:33):
Yeah, and all right, so you've got thirty seconds here.
The first twenty seconds everything counts as two. The last
ten seconds everything counts as three. And we've had a
lot of folks come back and win those last ten seconds. Okay,
hold on, let me see here I messed that up,
So apologize. Very uncomfortable moment here where we have to
kill a bit of time.

applause and go, you're gone.

in and have a little bit on the show about
where she works.

Speaker 27 (02:51:17):
One time, I think the Red Velvet Lounge when y'all
caught Greg on camera throwing stuff trying to make commercials.

Speaker 11 (02:51:23):
You heard that question, Did anything like that happened when
you're making my commercial?

Speaker 16 (02:51:27):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:51:27):
Actually, by now I figured it out a little better.
That was terrible. You did throw stuff that I've actually
got it down pant Yeah, but I guess yeah, that
was good. They got me. So you your choice, your
choice of Greg. Interesting choice, it works.

Speaker 4 (02:51:41):
Down that area.

Speaker 3 (02:51:42):
Yeah, you know Greg, my voice of Greg him no
doubt about messing up on a commercial like something won't crank. Yeah,
myself frustrated that day when you can't you pull on
the pressure washer and it won't crank.

Speaker 27 (02:51:57):
And having like you said, I want custom trucks is
some Millbrook. And after this week, I started laughing when
I saw Adler making fun of Gregg's trump or speedy one.
I saw Aler has one of them from the van.
I think Greg needs to may come see me and
get one from truck.

Speaker 3 (02:52:14):
You know I had one of them. I'd been a
lot better. Just bounce off, I know, but that's all
I do. All right, Steve, are you winning the Burgess
ball battle? What a what a comeback? Though?

Oh yeah, I got a slow star you did, but
you roared back. Yeah, but I still you still lost, bait.

stories today, Adler. Let's look at number three video number three,
and really I throw this out here because I think

(02:55:14):
Greg's gonna love this. Uh you we we watched the
interview that that Trump gave one air force force one
where he was asked by a reporter if he thought,
and I'm just going to use the word that was used,
I mean you can use the word. It's gonna be
used here again, uh he asked was asked if he

(02:55:36):
thought that Tim Walls was retarded that that was asked
of president and if you remember, well he said that
he's definitely something wrong with it.

Speaker 13 (02:55:47):
He did.

Speaker 3 (02:55:47):
He said, I truly think he does have an issue.
I think that you're going to really enjoy that. Tim
Walls is mad about this and he's claiming now that
people keep driving by his house yelling that at it.
So so this is I thought you would enjoy this. Girl.
So here here here is Tim Walls.

Speaker 32 (02:56:06):
Are you okay with the President calling our neighbors garbage.
Are you okay with him referring to Minnesota as a hellhole?
Unfactually untrue? This creates danger and I'll tell you what,
in my time on this, i'd never seen this before.
People driving my house by my house and using the
R word in front of people. This is shameful. And

(02:56:27):
I have yet to see an elected official, a Republican
elected officials say you're right.

Speaker 3 (02:56:32):
That's shameful. Okay, buddy, okay, yeah, Tim, can I ask
you why you're not being defended by a lot of people.
Nobody likes you? Yeah, he's not right, I mean, and
no one, no one. Who's the who's gonna be the
big Tim Walls defender? I don't think you might care.

Speaker 9 (02:56:45):
Asmullions, that's who's defending.

Speaker 3 (02:56:47):
By the way, Babylon b is having a field day
with that. Well, they're uncovering a lot there, aren't they.

Speaker 9 (02:56:52):
Yeah, yeah, what is that?

Speaker 3 (02:56:53):
I don't understand. I see the jokes. But what's going
on with the Somalis?

Speaker 9 (02:56:56):
It's so uh, Tim Walls, Governor of Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (02:57:00):
Uh, there's been a huge scandal with Somalians abusing UH
entitlement programs and it's in the They think a billion dollars.
They think it's in the level of a billion dollars.
And what's what, it's not funny. What what's crazy is
that they're figuring out that this money is being used
by Somalians who have come to Minnesota. They're taking US

(02:57:22):
tax dollars, so our dollars, sending it back to Somalia
and like war gangs and terrorist organizations are getting this money.
So Minnesotan's Minnesotan Minnesotans, Yeah, you sure are are funding
terrorism in Somalia. That's what's happening.

Speaker 3 (02:57:42):
By the way, from Babylon Badies of Omar's is Uh
is in on it.

Speaker 6 (02:57:46):
Yes she hadn't been in dited like or pointed out directly,
but people she knows is in on this fraud scheme.

Speaker 3 (02:57:53):
They say, let's get Babylon B. Tim Wallas reminds the
nation not all Somali rapists or bad people. All right,
that's from Babylon B. I don't think anybody really likes
Tim Walls now he's and if I lived in Minnesota,
I would really just like him. Minnesota Vikings changed name
to Minnesota Somali Pirates. That's a good one. They're having,

(02:58:15):
are having a good time and for some reason, I
don't even know why. This made me laugh. Babylon B
has a picture. Have you ever seen that these drinks
that are in the the soft drink area and it's
Lacroix or Laqui, Lacroix, Lacroix. Yeah, and this is all.
The headline says, Well, looks like they're still making Lacroix
and that's it. And it just shows the boxes that
we're like, who drinks this.

Speaker 17 (02:58:38):
So well?

Speaker 3 (02:58:39):
But we don't have to have to tell everything. We
don't have to tell everything went in here yesterday? Actually right, yeah,
don't have to tell everything.

Speaker 8 (02:58:49):
But people are pointing out that Tim Walls changed the
Minnesota flag. That's the video I was playing behind you
guys a second again.

Speaker 9 (02:58:56):
It's it looks a lot like the Somali flag.

Speaker 3 (02:58:59):
Okay, it does.

Speaker 9 (02:59:00):
We covered this on the show. Yeah, this is real.

Speaker 3 (02:59:02):
I remember this.

Speaker 8 (02:59:03):
Kim Wall's governor Minnesota changed the flag of Minnesota to
like a flag with a star on it, and it
is kind of similar. It's funny, and it's kind of
similar to the Somalia flags.

Speaker 9 (02:59:15):
Y'all. They've got big they've got got big time problems there.

Speaker 3 (02:59:18):
You know, I'm not. I don't want to get into
the whole thing with the name calling, but just in
real world, it doesn't mean there's something not that he's
not right. You're not gonna go that far. But yeah, yeah,
So also, while we're on this, Trump has unveiled historic
reset of Biden's fuel rules. Uh, and he is saying

(02:59:40):
that it's gonna save Americans one hundred and nine billion dollars.

Speaker 6 (02:59:44):
It's going to help hopefully trickle down to where car
prices aren't aren't going to be as really.

Speaker 3 (02:59:49):
Okay, it says we are terminating Joe Biden's ridiculously burden
some horrible actually that's how you say it doesn't in
horrible Actually caf A f E.

Speaker 8 (03:00:01):
Corporate average fuel economy. I just actually just had to
look this up like last break to figure out what
it means. But you guys, you know the auto start
auto stop thing that happens.

Speaker 9 (03:00:12):
Turned out this is all part of that.

Speaker 8 (03:00:14):
Yes, so a Trump rolling this stuff back will hopefully
get rid of this these crazy cafe standards, get rid
of this crazy auto start stop button that you have
to put it ridiculous, I mean, mechanics hated people that
own cars, hated. It drives the price of cars up,
these cafe standards, So farmers can't have a little small
work truck that's simple without all these crazy bells and

(03:00:36):
whistles and crash. I think you know things that we
don't need for a farm truck. We're not allowed to
build or own these vehicles in the United States. Hopefully
with Trump rolling back these cafe standards that can change,
cars can become affordable.

Speaker 9 (03:00:49):
I remember when I was a kid.

Speaker 8 (03:00:50):
I wanted a Toyota Tacoma, the scale back, single cab Toyota,
simple Toyota Tacoma.

Speaker 9 (03:00:57):
They're there. They are simple, they last forever. You can
work on him if you learn about him.

Speaker 8 (03:01:01):
Parts are relatively cheap, and they don't make that truck anymore.
That truck doesn't exist in America anymore. So hopefully that'll change.

Speaker 3 (03:01:08):
So, Greg, what was the one you had? I'm telling
Greg had it going on. He had a Toyota. What
was that thing? Which was little? The first one? The
first one it was. It was just a Toyota. It's
the one that the one you normally see in the
Middle East with like a machine gun. Yeah, yeah, a
long time rights and whistles, this is the first of
vehic Yeah yeah, and uh, I mean Greg thought he was,

(03:01:30):
Oh yeah, did he really?

Speaker 4 (03:01:31):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (03:01:31):
You don't know how weird it was for those of
us that couldn't we also and Greg had his own
car that he bought himself. It was weird. How did
you pull that off? To the bank? He would and
got him a little loan and he he started working
for the Southern Company. You think we didn't know what
to do. None of us had real jobs, No, and
we had little jobs. I was at the car wash
and he's driving a new Toyota truck. They making minimum wage.
That was about three dollars above that, right, right, told

(03:01:55):
the bank for it, right, Yeah, that was a good
vehicle though it was Remember I think Dad took it,
bought it from me. I think he did. Yeah, yeah,
you know I did. Yeah, you're right, he did. You're right. Yeah.
And now I think I got marrin couldn't afford it
in them all now you haven't shared that income. So yeah.

(03:02:16):
And then another one today, another story, not political. Uh,
but you know this is something that they say is
a nightly habit. This linked to healthier blood pressure.

Speaker 25 (03:02:29):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (03:02:30):
And you know what it says and this. Of course,
none of these things farewell for us and what we
do for a living, none of them. A consistent bedtime. What, Yeah,
it says being consistent about when you go to bay.
Everybody keeps bringing that up is some new research, and
they said affects cardiovascular health. It says. What's different about

(03:02:50):
this is most people think you just just get enough
hours of sleep, that's all you really have to do
to affect heart health. But they're saying more and more
recent it shows no, even if you don't get as much,
but are consistent on when you go to bed, that
actually helps more than getting more sleep. But having a
bunch of variety of bedtich.

Speaker 9 (03:03:12):
I'm in so much trouble.

Speaker 3 (03:03:13):
I know this doesn't that doesn't I try. I'm telling
you so weird now because you know, you guys have
been on this schedule. You know, this year, I'm new
to the to the hour earlier than all the ricking
Bubby years. So this show we all start together, and
that that that that has forced me into a more

(03:03:33):
consistent bed time. Yeah, but mine is not like on
the nose. Mine is like within an hour. I wonder
if that counts. I'm close to it, but it's weird
to start being concerned about Man, I can't see ten
show up, and now I can't see eight show up,
you know, or eight fifteen the US marker. Yeah, I try.

(03:03:54):
I gotta try to get in there for eight. And
you talk about becoming a Debbie downer to everybody. Yeah,
I mean, you know, you're no fun to anybody. Yeah,
it's you know, especially people that like they think Friday
is a good day to do something. Friday is the worst. Yeah,
I mean because it's my wife said that she's had
to learn. She goes, you know, Friday night dates. I mean,
you know, I'm gonna pass out sitting. No, there's no one.

(03:04:16):
And I went to that ball game this week with
what were you thinking? I ain't never gonna get called up?
And you saw sticks. You went to bed at eleven.
That's nuts. We can't do that. You think by Sunday
you'll start to feel better. Probably not.

Speaker 9 (03:04:31):
I'm horrifically sleeperprive.

Speaker 8 (03:04:33):
This is probably the most sleeper private I've been in
my life, except for when my children were firstborn.

Speaker 3 (03:04:38):
It's just it's so hard to get to sleep.

Speaker 8 (03:04:40):
My kids they used to just go to sleep, and
now it's like a two hour process with like negotiating
shoes and debates and like cease.

Speaker 9 (03:04:48):
Fires and all kinds of things orders, boundaries.

Speaker 3 (03:04:51):
Well, good news, you're only turning forties. You'll be fun.

Speaker 1 (03:04:53):
Yeah, yeah, this is the Rick Burger's Show, refusing to

(03:05:17):
attempt sulism with unreasonable people who rip budges.

Speaker 3 (03:05:24):
All right, America, and here we go, Thanks for being
with us, unpacking another one and hope you all have
been hanging out with us and joined the day. Get
the archives, catch anything that you might have missed. Strange Encounters,
brand new episode coming up this weekend, Episode twenty one,
we unpacked the origin of this thing? Your kids are

(03:05:45):
doing this? Six seven things, six seven sixty seven? What
is all this? I'm sure it's nothing, be important to
know its origin, and we do jump into that this
weekend in Strange Encounters, So get that wherever you get podcasts,
and we thank you for being with us. Do you

(03:06:06):
do you guys have any idea of Do y'all know
who Jesse James Decker is? Yes? Country singer?

Speaker 8 (03:06:13):
Who is this?

Speaker 3 (03:06:13):
She was a country singer married to that football player.
Country singer married to football player? Remember who do you
play for? I don't know who. I don't know. I'm
not familiar with this. Apparently, as I looked into the
story that Speedy put out there today, they also her
and her husband appeared on this Special Forces show where

(03:06:38):
they went on there and see if you have a
good show? Yeah yet have you heard the one? And
they advertise it with I know I heard it on
our podcast archive where they're going to search. I can't
imagine what these people are going to be put through.
It's like all these trainers that do physical training for people,
they're going to get a cop, get into competition and

(03:06:59):
see of all the trainers, who is the fittest of
the fit? Oh, can you imagine what they're gonna put
them through?

Speaker 7 (03:07:05):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (03:07:05):
I think Amazon is gonna be carrying it. Maybe Amazon,
can you imagine what they're going to be put through?
That's uh yeah. So anyway, the reason why I brought
this up is, and I keep wanting to say, unless
I don't understand the story, I think she needs to
go see a doctor.

Speaker 16 (03:07:26):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (03:07:26):
It's like she doesn't mention that she's seeing the doctor.
It's like she's on social media asking people what's wrong
with her, and she's not doing well and I'm like,
what's wrong with her? So it says she has a
she's battling some illness. It has facial swelling and respiratory issues.
She posted that she she was like sitting in a

(03:07:49):
hot tub. I mean she's not. I mean it's not
don't it's not anything like that, but saying feeling a
little better today, still slight fever and tummy aches. Uh,
and say, but I'll take it after the way I felt.
I'm trying to sweat this thing out. Whatever it is,
it's kicking my butt. And then she puts a question
box asking fans on for movie suggestions, and while she

(03:08:14):
is bedridden, and then she keeps talking about her everything
that she has. It's bad, she's got bad respiratory coughing
up stuff and all that. And she keeps keeping everybody
of your fans updated on what's going on. And she
said it keeps changing and turning into different stuff. And

(03:08:36):
I actually took a puff of a forced and haler
to see if it would help. Whatever it is, it
keeps turning into something else and saying I hope it
goes away soon, and then wakes up again and tells
the fans, hey, something news happening. It's in my chest,
really really bad. Dog, I know that's what I'm saying,

(03:08:59):
and so I hate being sick, and I keep looking
for have you seen a doctor? And I think at
one point she puts in here, maybe I need to
go see somebody. Yes, is here, Maybe I need to
go get it looked at, or will it pass? Well?
You know you had that R s V or whatever,
just lasted good night, head towards too much? Did her

(03:09:21):
face well, no, no swelling face, no chest I mean
nearly two monch. But but shouldn't shouldn't she go to doctor?

Speaker 27 (03:09:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (03:09:31):
Doctor, and that way you know what it is. And
then then they start. I know it still may last
a long time, but at least you have medical people
giving you what you need to work through it. Give
it a little chess X ray. Make sure you.

Speaker 9 (03:09:44):
Bernie mac walking the moon? You got him? Uh wow?
Todd Snyder just recently, the singer songwriter, he died from
the moon. You just recently. I did not know that
he was a kind of a more of an indie
singer songwriter.

Speaker 3 (03:09:57):
But long long, TWI you can't at these things faster.

Speaker 6 (03:10:01):
It'll start shutting organs down and everything else, she's still
not one hundred percent.

Speaker 8 (03:10:07):
I looked up, In fact, after that happened, I looked
up the symptoms of walking pneumonia. I wanted them to
be more obvious, like, you know, like your left cheek
is going to be really red.

Speaker 4 (03:10:16):
Or you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 9 (03:10:17):
Like it was kind of like, yeah, slight cough, maybe fever, chill,
something like that.

Speaker 3 (03:10:21):
I'm like, well, you know, you know when I had
walk in pneumonia decades ago, did you? And that's when
I had that uncomfortable moment about the deflated moonwalk thing.
You remember, oh, because they did a chest x ray
because and then they diagnosed me with the walking pneumonia.
And that's when the doctor looked looked at the x

(03:10:43):
ray and said, have you had some sort of injury?
And I mean, you just don't want to tell how
it happened, because it's not a cool story. I jumped
off a stage onto a moonwalk type thing that they'd
cut off the pressured air and now it it was
just like somebody to put air into a sheet and
I dove through the middle of it and landed on

(03:11:05):
the car parking lot on my stomach. Yeah, it's a
good way to wrap up a remote though, well with
a band, yeah, and then I'll take t shirt. Then
I just kind of made my way like an injured
animal over to my car, laid in there, drove home
like sitting on my right hip, and just laid round

(03:11:26):
hoping it would pass. So I guess I'm I can't
get on this person. But that was just too embarrassing.
I mean, you don't want to tell anybody how you
were injured. So they was walking in theemonium when he goes, hey,
if you had some sort of trauma, your dive fram
up under your arm pit, your dive fram you left
die frams like up under your that's a situation. You
have trouble catching your breath. Well that's your The truck

(03:11:47):
almost ran over your When I did the people's elbow
on the beach, Oh okay, well that was that was
like that was rock doing the people's elbow. That one
in that's sand and it's not sold. Sand doesn't really
give does now.

Speaker 9 (03:11:59):
I doesn't think it's soft.

Speaker 3 (03:12:00):
I laid out there for a long time, sure did.
Let me tell you got some good air though I did,
though you got sure why I was doing it? You
got some good air? And you gave you, you gave. Yeah,
you get. You gave the Gulf of Mexico at the time.
Now you go of America. You said I would now
give the Gulf of Mexico the people's the people's elbow.
Did you holler while you Oh yeah, then I couldn't holler.

(03:12:21):
I couldn't do anything. I couldn't breathe. No, you got
pin by truck once, Yeah, that that's fine. Yeah. Also
you got the bull incident. Yeah, when when me and
you rode a bull, hurt your knee, threw me off, Yeah,
hurt my shoulder. I've never seen you bounced like a basketball,
you know. And that that dirt looks soft. No, it wasn't.

(03:12:42):
I was off that thing so fast. I don't think
I was on it twesday. No, how about when that
gate open, you all four feet came off and it's on.
You're like, good, gracious, you have an invest on it.
But it's one of those things. You know, there were
so many times when you and I look at injuries
we had for stupid and you know, just like the
time I got injured trying to jump over that rail,

(03:13:04):
if it was a good one, if I don't try
to click my heels. I make Yeah, he was clearing
the rail. He tried to be acute and click his heels.
It caught his toe. But I don't try to click
my heels. I make it. You got you showing up.
I just tried to add the cleaning of the heels,
telling you if you just not clicked to you, I know.
Then I bleed. And this was outside of concert during

(03:13:27):
the general mission days. So now I stood in line
and somebody behind me said, hey, I think you're I
think you're hurt. And in the back of my shirt
was sticking to where I landed because there's so much blood.
You hit them a little pine and all my all
Greg said was, man, you hadn't clicked. You tried to
click your heels. You made you get in line? Of
course I just left the blood dry. I went on
to see Death Leppard. Yeah, missed the Concert's gonna miss

(03:13:49):
