(02:32):
got one fritter in and ready. Adler, let me go
ahead and warn you because I know you were very
busy and Greg called this on yesterday's program. You recall
that Speedy became the expert on the gene Hackman. Yeah.
I thought he was like a sign to it or something.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
He was like Nancy Grace, Yeah, awesome, everybody.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Hey, Greg and I are updated, I mean to the
max on the conclave. He's trying to see how to
send up why it'smog black. Let me two thirds majority
of Speedy has taken on, uh the the next pope,
and he is bringing us up to date with everything.
I mean, he's telling me things about record number of

(03:19):
popes coming in. You've got a few quotes from some
older it's a large Yeah, he's got a non voting
older cardinals weighing in. One of the sources come out
in the mass. They just completed to start the conclict, right,
so Speedy had some direction for the cardinals. Speedy is
all over the next pope. I mean he great. I
mean he was rolling out information to you and me.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
And did I hear him right? He was calling the
last pope fat. That was very rude.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Speedy, Yeah, it was you said that. You said, oh, no,
it's just the saying he said, that's an analogy for change.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
What's the same.

Speaker 5 (03:53):
How does it go after a fat pope comes a
thin pope.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
Yeah, okay, you are calling the pope fat?

Speaker 5 (04:00):
No God, basically, there's a there's a change in direction. Yeah,
a lot of a lot of people felt like Pope
Francis took him in a more progressive route. Yes, where
everyone everyone, you know, kind of not that the doctrine
was tampered with, but some of the traditions were, and
a lot didn't like that.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Well, I feel like they need to correct that. By
the way, somebody is saying that Speedy's new nickname is
the Popo Pasca Google.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
Okay, y'all, I'm just it's just it's just so it's
just prep.

Speaker 6 (04:32):
It is all.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, and I do have some facts for y'all.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Yeah, we've heard the largest conclave in the history of
the Catholic Church, one hundred and thirty.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Three cardosver there.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
Three Italy having the most present, uh seventy one countries
represented from the one hundred and thirty three cardinals, but
fifteen being newly represented countries.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
In other words, they've never been there, never been a
part of their agree.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
And so they they're talking about those newly represented cardinals
from those fifteen countries that they ain't playing. It's not
about left and right and politics. They want the church
to get back to following the Holy Spirit.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Wow, what a concept do they have? Anybody from Saint
Louis Cardinals, Buddy sat Lonis Cardinals. Got terrible cardinals, that's awful, terrible.

Speaker 5 (05:25):
Pope France is appointed one hundred and seventy cardinals of
one hundred and thirty three there, and so something felt like, oh,
they're gonna, they're gonna they're you know, they're gonna stay
that same progressive. But a lot of them that I mean,
they never met him. He didn't know them, and he
just appointed them. And you know, like the cardinal out
of the Philippines. He's more of the Pope France.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Oh you got Philippines, but the one from Jerusalem, and
everybody's like he needs to be that, he needs to
be our next one. I got an email today from
from someone who said that he's pulling for the guy
from Israel for for some real serious reasons. But he
said also because at the end of it all, we'll
be able to call him Papa John. Yes, he had
some sort of tithe that that eventually at the end

(06:06):
of it, it's like his name has pizza in it
or something. Yeah, but but that that was right. I
saw that. Did you say that? I saw the name,
Like his last name has something something Papa Pizza or something,
Pizza Bala. Maybe that's it.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
They just bri Yeah, it's Pizza Bala, Pierre but Here, Yeah,
that's him. Yeah, Pizza Bala. He looks kind of Pizza
Butler and Pizza Bala.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Here best.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Batista. Yeah, like the Here Bautista, the wrestler Pizza as
in Pizza and Bala as in Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Okay, so there you go. But but no, I think
that you're going to see. I mean, there were a
lot of devout, Holy Spirit loving people who did not
like this last pope. They were not trying to be
mean about the fact that he's died, but they're like, hey,
we we were on the wrong path of this guy.
Francis was on the wrong path. Well, no offense.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
The cardinals were just given direction in Mass.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Before I got into your area.

Speaker 5 (07:15):
I'm sorry, Well you're good, and they said, we need
the next pope to awaken those who have forgotten God.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Was the direction.

Speaker 5 (07:24):
He said, y'all will be judged on the decision you're
about to make in this moment. We have to come
together because we as uh as a world have forgotten God.
And and they and you know what, they blamed a
lot of it on technology.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
There's a lot of that guy.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
And they said that that people are listening to voices
that aren't their own. They're fake, they're not even human.
And uh, he said, because they're ignoring that there the
Holy Spirit and their self conscious because because of technology
and people that they're following social media and influences that

(08:00):
they don't even know, and it's taking the world in.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Is Hoby telling you all this? It is Hobe. He
got a favorite.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
I like the one from Jerusalem. All right, so here's
here's what Tyler said. And Tyler's last name looks like
he may be Italian. He says, hey bird, happy conclave
to you two, sir. I've attached a photo of the
cardinal who we all should be rooting for in the
conclave election. And we just said it. His name is
the Pizza Butla, an Italian born cardinal who currently serves

(08:32):
in Jerusalem. A Speedy said, why are we rooting for him? Well,
hopefully he if he if he decides to pick the
is it? He say, the papal name changed to John
and then whatever John he would be, then we refer
to him as a cardinal name uh Pizza Bala, as

(08:55):
Papa John. And we're hoping that we can have a
guy named that we can call Papa. Not a good
reason to hope for it. And then back on this,
he said, on a serious note, pretty impressive individual. One
thing that really stood out about and you said this
Speedy about him offering and he loves him. Him offering
himself up in exchange for a hostage in gossip.

Speaker 5 (09:14):
Yeah, but somebody that's not trying to understand it, because
this is a big deal, trying to understand it is
been a challenge.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
It is, but you're doing more challenge than Gene Hackman.
Black was pretty confusing.

Speaker 5 (09:26):
If you see black smoke, that means that it's not
a two thirds majority. If you see white smoke, that
means it is a majority and a pope has been elected.

Speaker 4 (09:34):
And you're an expert on smoke, what if.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
It goes that smoke thing? What if you're in charge
of the smoke and you send the wrong color out?

Speaker 4 (09:41):
What a speedy was in charge of smoke? He had
to be over the belltown.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
He's smoking up there a bigger challenge to get Greg
interested in all this.

Speaker 7 (09:48):
Yes he is the Rick Burgess show, Well we.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Just destroyed you. You heard stories on the show even
today where it looks like things are headed in the
right direction if you are conservative. But what we have
to be very careful of is resting and thinking, hey,
it's over, we won Oh no, no, no, it's long from
ever being over, and it probably will never be over.

(10:19):
That's why the fight has to always continue because look,
the Left is going to regroup and they're going to
try different approaches. They may or may not learn from
their mistakes, but the bottom line is we need to
be informed and know what's going on, and there's only
there's not a lot of places you can do that.
I don't think any of us trust that the you know,
mainstream media is giving us journalism right now. But at

(11:51):
some other things to discuss today. I meant to let
y'all in on this my my pursuit of being handed
more handy. It's on fire. You had another Oh yes,
it continues to go back to the hardware store. Well,
you'll spend a little time down at the farm on Sunday.

(12:12):
This one. I mean, Sherry saw me in action, and
I could just see her thinking to herself. I didn't
know that my husband. I knew that this was an
area of deficit in his life, you know, one of
the things that kept him from being perfect. And he's
so close, and she thinks if he starts this, I mean,

(12:33):
who's got it better than her? You know, I mean
I know that's what she was probably thinking. She didn't
say that, just thinking that she probably thought that. And
so we went into the house and I noticed I
looked over and I saw that some of the would
is the term of the stuff that hangs down, but
it's not on the window, but it's on the side

(12:53):
kind of decorative. Are those drapes? Because that's not current
window drape you know inside that don't It's like they'll
pull them, but there's something else that's already your windows lighter.
But then there's just heavier things on the side, and
they might pull them together if they want to go,
you know, really cut the light out.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Are those drapes I'm looking it up. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Curtains.

Speaker 4 (13:16):
I think rapid curtains are the same, the same thing.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
How did you shut them? How did you pull them
close with your shoulder?

Speaker 8 (13:21):
What?

Speaker 1 (13:21):
I didn't because they were I looked up and they
were broken. Rick, Now you're an interior decorator. No, no,
the rod head bro. I looked up and the rod
was hanging down. I went, hey, babe, got a prop
up here with the I said, curtain rod.

Speaker 5 (13:33):
Okay, I mean think I think that would pass?

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yeah, I mean, she said, And then she said, okay, okay,
Well I said no, let me check into it, because
then the very manly fix, I said.

Speaker 4 (13:44):
Maybe drapes go all the way to the ground and
curtains stop at the window.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Whatever. Okay, you didn't pull a chair over there and
stand on it, did you?

Speaker 6 (13:51):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Yes, you dealing with the curtain rod a chair and
look I looked. I looked up and guess what I saw?
Guess what I saw and nail it was bent.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
Oh and so a nail, yeah, nails.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Anyway, there was a nail in there, and there was
and there was like a little screw and I knew
I was I knew I was good because it was
Philip's head.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
It's a screw.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
There was a nail and a screw. That's interesting. There
was a nail in the wall, but I was holding
the bracket or whatever that thing is. And then there
were screws that screwed in to hold the rod in
place inside the bracket. I looked at her and I said, who,
we got problems? Yeah, And I said, you said, we
really sharp and screws and so so then I went

(14:36):
and I said, I said, we got to loose threw
here and we got a nail that needs some work
and uh so yeah, it was just like that. And
and over here was had on the left. Yeah no, no,
no drapes to the floor. The rod on the left
right up here is where we have from. Oh yeah,
I got it. I said, baby, stand down, continue what

(14:59):
you're doing. I got the what caused and then I
said I need two things. I need two things that
I pretty good with Phillip's head screwdriver, and I said, now,
I tried to use a crescent and a hammer. Interested
I had a nail in there. That's what they put
the whatever the original thing was in there with the nail.
I didn't put it in there.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
What was the nail into the.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Coming in there? It was on the stud though it
was on a stud. Then what made them once I
was done? It was somebody yank to get a stud finder. No,
I just started saying. They kept hitting on it too.
I said, this feels more solid, and so I stood
up in a chair and I got eventually found a hammer,

(15:44):
but found one out in the barn, and I brought
it back in rusty and uh hammered that nail back
into place and got the Phillips said, and righty, righty,
right righty, righty, righty, righty righty. And then I said, uh, baby,
fixed the curtain rod. None, I probably won't stay.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
No, got it never gonna stay. So did you have
to ice your shoulder?

Speaker 1 (16:06):
After that? It was a little rough because I had
to go to Rich both watch this guys, righty righty, righty, righty.
And then I came back down. I said, well, it
is a minute in there, when I was about four
rights in. I can feel the I can feel the
shoulder screen. Yeah, you know somebody's texting.

Speaker 5 (16:24):
Now if I have a run, run on this old house,
run up on it, I'll stop. It's been around forever
and uh I could see Rick on there now.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
I think I'm Don't you think I should start on it?
Don't you think I should start my own YouTube channel? Yeah?
I think so. You help a lot of people today.
We've got a curtain rod just's scrooping down.

Speaker 6 (16:44):
You do this.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Looks like there's a nail up there and a couple
of screws that would acquire so you may not know
this Phillips head screwdriver. We'll also need a hammer and
when your shoulder, but you're working through it, I said,
you man, when your wife's depending on you can't let
things like some sort of rotator cuff issue stop you.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Will.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
You have to use your right Some of us might
be able to go with the left hand. Today. I'll
just push through the right righty righty, righty, righty, righty,
righty righty. First I made sure Adler the you've already
probably ahead of me. I made sure the bracket was
secure with the nail. Then I dropped the rod back
into the slot and then the screw that holds it

(17:29):
into place was loose. Screwed it in, tighten the rod
up in there, and about I know exactly what nice
major skill? Right right righty, righty, righty, righty good? How
did you drag the chair over there? That's with the
left with the left hand, the ones not injured. Mm hmm,
she said, she said, you need me to hold that

(17:50):
in place. I said, I'm good. I've dropped a few.
So that's that's about. That's about three things. I feel
extent about ten days. That's impressive. But why did it
fall out in the first play?

Speaker 9 (18:03):
Now?

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Who knows? So yeah, that's the reason why I moved
the nail. I don't know where it was.

Speaker 4 (18:08):
Yeah, did you hold the stud finder up to your
chest and be like if this thing's going crazy?

Speaker 7 (18:14):
But you show.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Okay? So uh yeah, we were. People were saying, look
how we're doing a little handiwork in the brain. Those
of you that watch us on YouTube had a TV
I'm standing over making sure Speedy was knew what he
was doing. Of course, I gave him the idea for
the chair. Speedy what you did? What happened over there?
We had we had a channel that was off on
one of the TV's and it's.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
Kind of weird.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Nobody listens to me around.

Speaker 5 (18:44):
It's it's kind of weird because in my mind it
hasn't been this way, but nobody.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Listens to me around. It has been doing that for
a month months. Well, but I brought it up. I thought,
this is me.

Speaker 5 (18:58):
I thought, every now and then I'd look up and
and the Fox News channel would be on.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
On that top. It's been a long time, and and
and you say it has no That's how weird to mind,
is I I was running infomercials, like for a long time.
There was this auxygen had old dude after playing golf anything.
I brought it up, Speedy, this channel is. I didn't care.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
Should have told us, should have.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
Told And the only reason I noticed is because I
kind of wanted to. I was really paying attention to
the conclave going on right now.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
I was about to say, Speedy, that's been had a
commercial for like thirty minutes. I said, I told you
all that weeks ago. I never heard you ever mentioned it.
I did you know?

Speaker 5 (19:38):
And it like I've never heard you tell us that that's.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
You actually looked back at me and acknowledged it. Well, Greg, Greg,
when he started flipping around, you know what he was
looking for, don't you. Twenty four to seven Conclave update.
Oh yeah, live Vatican.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
Okay, since speedy is our Nancy Grace of the Conclave,
here's a that's terrible.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
Don't show those What are you doing? That's for our
po Okay, So that's offensive in so many ways.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Don't do that, Okay?

Speaker 6 (20:07):
Is it not?

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (20:08):
So although hey, by the way, in that movie Conclave,
of course they have to not watch watching that wedge
something in there, and evidently the pope that gets selected
is inter gender interest interest interesting, thanks, buddy, I don't
want to say it.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
They put that in a movie about the Conclave.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
Yeah, it's based on a book. The book and the movie,
and you know they are like, oh, this is great,
it is perfect.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
Yeah, let me sit down and watch this. This would
be wonderful.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
We like to jam into every movie possible.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
They really it's now if it's anything new, you're just
waiting on it. Okay, here, which one's really a dude,
where's this character they're going to try to cram into
this story that doesn't even fit right. Okay, So today's
May seventh. If you're listening live or watching live, this
is Star I D day. This is it. It starts,

(21:04):
it starts today. But here's and I'm noticing. I saw
the Transport.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
Director say that though that that you're still going to
be able to fly without one. They're going to give
you a little bit of a grace period. I think
I saw that headline.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yes, I just signed the ID. I'm not worried about it.
I saw the Hey, what about with federal buildings? Well,
I guess I can't think of anything good for me
in a federal building. I really need no.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
But if I'm in a federal building, I'm being like
dragged in. I'm not going, you know, willingly.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
I'm there, charged with what are they going to do?
Of course I've got to go to one this month. Yeah, see,
I have a good excuse I can't go. I ain't
got a star Ida. Well, they're just gonna have to
get over that because Rick, just take your passport. Rick
claims that passport is't gonna get him. It is right here.

Speaker 5 (21:50):
Uh, air travelers without real I D STAR, I D
whatever to face extra screening, but will be allowed to
fly for now. D HS says that May seventh is
the deadline. Rick, you have that right. Cavity said they
will face extra screening and delays at the airport if
you don't have it, but they're gonna work with you

(22:10):
on that. And that's why they said if you fly
starting today, you better get there early if you even
if you have the real ID, because things are gonna
take longer because of the extra screen.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Yeah, this is great, they said. They're calling it. If
you don't have the star ID, they refer to it
as you will be searched in a Blake prime fashion. Yes,
we're gonna treat you like you've got muscle creating and
a pre workout of shake. So but this is the thing,
and Greg, this is under think, this is under the

(22:40):
deal of trying to be sharp. Yeah, it happens a lot.
So I was coming through in airport as you know,
this past weekend, and and you know how you know,
it's always different. People have different attitudes about everything, and
there's no consistency in airports. Sure, you've got the really
into it person, then you've got somebody that like it
looks like they couldn't care less. Okay, well this was
a really into it person. So I'm coming in to

(23:03):
find TSA the normal screening, and here's mister excitement. Wait no,
he goes, don't forget about Star I D starting on
May seven. And I looked at him. I said, I've
just got an updated passport. I'm good, and he goes, well, yeah,
you can't use that. It's like they're disappointed. They're so
excited about this Star I D thing. And and of

(23:24):
course he came at me with way too much energy,
and I'm like, hey, hey, Francis, settle down, Hey, settle down, cuddles.
I'm going to be coming in here with an updated passport.
I'm good. I'll get the Star ID at some point.
I'm not going to be pressured to do that right now.
I don't have time for this. Okay. Oh, let me
tell you one of those things where you tell me

(23:44):
how bad it was on the Star I D. I
had to go somebody somebody one of the car tag
lost in the mail and I had to go down there
and get a replacement. And I walk in and it's like,
not bad at all. Not. I mean, I was up
there talking to a person in five minutes, and I said, wow,

(24:05):
I expected to be a little crazier down here, and
she goes, oh, oh, oh, we have our own part
of the building for that. You're not even anywhere near
these people. You go, you go go through the lobby
and go over there. You're gonna see Mayham. And I'm
all good. But I thought that was smart. They got
them out of the way of people just trying to
do normal stuff. So that was good. But this this
whole thing with the Star I D just hey, hey,

(24:26):
calm down, okay, if I don't if you have a
passport or that either one works. Everybody calm down. Now,
if you don't have a passport and you don't have
a Star I D and you need to fly, then
you do have problem. Yeah. Now you are going to
need a real id.

Speaker 5 (24:41):
As someone said, uh Adler to get on the press
in the press court at the White House, if if
you ever go do that to represent a good.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
Point we're about we're about an expired license to carry.
I just realized mine's expired. Oh you're good now, Yeah,
that right right, That's how it always goes. I'll go
through all the effort of doing so thing and then
they'll be like, oh, we did away with that. You
don't even have to have it any.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
And I'm always thinking that's gonna happen. And that's the
reason why I hold up. Yes, yeah, the Star thing
to die out, but the Star thing to go after that.
Let me tell you what does I will say this
for everybody out there, not a bit. I'm not a
conspiracy theorist. Take the mark, take it. Hey, Star idea
a little creepy for me. Right when seems unnecessarily they

(25:26):
try to put it on your forehead, Yeah, it seems unnecessary.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
That was over over the.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
Line, seems unnecessary. We've we've done fine without it, I agree,
I mean, and we start what else would they want?
We taking our shoes off? Now we're turned upside Now
we can't take you know, field of greens onto a plane,
can't take any water on the plane. Uh, we've turned
up the security. What what has this really done to
make us more secure?

Speaker 5 (25:49):
I would assume, and this is someone who doesn't know,
So here I go, and you know how you can
break down all that?

Speaker 6 (25:56):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (25:56):
I would I would have.

Speaker 5 (25:59):
Pro star, I would I would assume that the one
hundred and thirty three Cardinals would Oh, no, no, I
would assume that it would be verification that you are
who you say you are in today's world of terrorism
and fake id's and stuff, that you've gone through the
process that they have. You've shown a number of forms
of ID, proven your identity, where you live. So they

(26:23):
see that star in there they know, just like a
driver's license. But what I'm saying is there's you know
that you've gone just like a passport. Well, the passport
you have to do that, but.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
What I'm talking that's what's license you do too. Drivers
you just go in show proof of you have to
prove who you are. Your driver's license is proof who
you are, right, But that's been around for a long time,
you asked, I'm just telling you that's probably don't know. Basically,
I just said I didn't know, but I would.

Speaker 5 (26:46):
I was guessing that that might be the case, that
it's just a stamp of a current updated you are
who you are.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
But all forms of idea that way, I have to
prove who are I.

Speaker 5 (26:58):
Was right, But this is a little extra. You've got
to take two forms of ID.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
What they've done.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
Residency, You've got to really kind of go overboard, kind
of like you do with a passport.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
You don't just walk in. So what I want to pass.
What they're doing is making everybody get a passport. Yeah, yeah,
pretty much, that's what a Star idea.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Yeah, government overreach.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Again, that's just me guessing y'all as I don't know.

Speaker 6 (27:22):
We are.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
We were we having some kind of eye of hand
problem of people that uh, you know you're you're still
going to say people if you prove who you are.
Apparently the leftist are still going to say. I'm sure
the star idea is racist. Ye yeah, but I just
is there some some kind of rash problem, Greg say,

(27:43):
it's kind of all the illegals come in. I don't
like to look at the star. I'm going with that
was that inverted? We don't want that. Just keep an
eye on it. Yeah, I won't belonged to You need
that star idea to get goods?

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Yeah, ask for mission for Oh can I get some
more gas?

Speaker 8 (28:03):
Well?

Speaker 4 (28:03):
Can I go to the bathroom please?

Speaker 6 (28:04):
Government?

Speaker 5 (28:05):
Right here is from the nine to eleven commission.

Speaker 4 (28:09):
It ra Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, yeah, that's just that bunch has been all over it. Yeah,
sure we'll be back. Thank you for being with US America. Yeah,
Vatlet points all over the textanation and emails. So if
the nine to eleven commission passed us in two thousand

(28:31):
and five and we've never gotten around to it till
twenty years later, it seems like we function really well
for twenty years. This is something back from two thousand
and five.

Speaker 5 (28:43):
You know, it was supposed to be in twenty twenty,
but COVID came and everybody can do fifteen.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Nobody said anything after it was passed. Yeah, what we
lost our minds. The part of the problem I have
with it, and I know alt Adler is all in.
I don't have to ask that, yeah, is I don't
have any problem with people coming in and that's going
out or whatever. It just feels a little creepy for
me that now my government's requiring me to have special
ID to travel within my own country. I got a

(29:10):
real problem with that. The I agree is but everybody.
But the big question that everybody wants to know is
does Hobe have his? Oh me tell me. I want
to say, see if Hoby's got his traveling He's had
his Let's see here.

Speaker 5 (29:27):
I think he just back got back from New York.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah, he does a lot of try. See.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
Hey, buddy Speedy here, can't wait to meet you and
work out today.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Period.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
Hey do you have the star? I D question Mark.
I'm sure you do since you just got back from
New York, but just wanted to check.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Period.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
I love you and and by the way, Greg will
not be joining us as he gets out of working
out every day.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
See that. Are you done with working? Hope and speaking
when the last time you do you're still doing thirty ten?

Speaker 10 (29:59):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yeah, you look great, Greg? Thank you? Yeah? Fine, you
better be working out after the way you eat it here,
fred Er boy, I had one Fredder this morning. It
was as big as a Hubcait, what's that type two daredevil? Rick?
You can have something now? Yeah, you need to go
and eat it so I won't. Okay, and take them

(30:22):
home with you and don't let him pull you down
that rod. That's nothing against the law. If someone wants
to law, Do you have a star? I D you
supposed to, He's supposed to have it constitutional. I wanted
that hurt out.

Speaker 5 (30:38):
I have not eaten them good because of you, because
I know.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
That's your your little baby. No, I don't care if
you Greg would one friend.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
Just know that Ricky hell Rick has taken everything from you,
your entire life. He broke your toys, He took your your.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Chocolate bunny toys and all that.

Speaker 5 (30:55):
You know, the fritters are your one thing that you.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
Lost toys and he broke your spirit.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Yeah, and so I'm like, I'm just gonna let get
a little. I wish y'all would go ahead and finish
them off because if not, I'm going to continue to
eat them. Right and there I have an apple. Good point.

Speaker 5 (31:08):
Imagine if Donde had peanuts here, you'd have peanuts and
Frederick faint.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
But you know the danger you have the peanuts and
Angie brought them. Yeah, that's true. Thank you Angie. By
the way, we have an Angie update. We do, and
it's it's unfortunate for her. Okay. So this is a
completely different time for a lot of you on your
on your routine. Some of you are five hour people
and we appreciate that very much. So you're in the loop.
But some of you may say, hey, I'm a partial.
I don't know what y'all mean when you're saying you

(31:33):
have an Angie update. First of all, it's not our sister.
No even know Greg and I have a sister named Angie.
We did Angie is she doesn't have a broken leg?
That she does not that we know of. This is
a really really supportive listener of the show that was
super just and excited about being in the vox seats

(31:54):
said she was going to bring I mean a spread,
a spread of food, which was on y'all, people don't
feel that you have to right and you don't have
to do that. It isn't She took it to I
mean guys. So we find out on the day she's
supposed to be here that she's falling and is injured.
She still drove here to the studio parking lot with Albert,

(32:18):
her big daddy. Yeah he was driving all the way,
about a forty five to fifty minute drive probably few
for you, probably close to an hour. Came in the
parking lot, says she was too injured to continue, had
to get to the hospital, but still brought all the

(32:39):
food and had an very emotional scene in the parking
lot with Speedy if you missed that yesterday, right. The
update is she has been diagnosed broken femur. That's not
good now, broken femur. She came up here with big
Daddy Albert with a broken femur, delivering the good to

(32:59):
the liver, all the food that she had made for
the show. And it is not a small amount. No, no,
it's not.

Speaker 5 (33:07):
She emailed us yesterday around dinner time and said that
she does have that broken femur. She's been admitted. Uh
and to police. Pray for her. She has surgery today.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Could not and let's face it, she came here. She
needs surgery on her femur. Yeah leg And you know
what though we didn't, We didn't. We didn't give her proble.

Speaker 5 (33:28):
Look, she can't even move her leg. I wanted to
get down there and move that leg for but I didn't.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
I didn't because her fur was broken.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
You're gonna get in there and get well, let's just
make a rube when it comes to listeners. Don't be
moving anybody's legs. Yeah, that's what I thought. I called myself.
I'm like, it's like my hands wanted to move in there,
but my mind said, don't do that. Are we not
said we going to move it?

Speaker 5 (33:47):
If you want to get out and hug you.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
She wanted to stand up, like, let me hung hammers
stand up on a broken femur.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
No, don't stand on a broken feer, hug William.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Are we not giving props for the cool hat you
had them? That is a pretty cool hat. That's a
very cool hat. I'm pretty sure that Ronnie Wood of
the Stones wanted to wear it. Yes, yeah, so praying
for you, Angie, Angie, broken femur. Now listen, No, it
continued to eat. Yeah, no exaggerations up. She had peanuts,
she had sausage balls, she had potato salad, she had

(34:20):
but ribs, butterbeans. Good for your heart? What else? Oh?

Speaker 6 (34:25):
Boy?

Speaker 5 (34:26):
Cake cake, pound cake, pound cake.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
It was unbelievable. And though I will say that you
really that's above and beyond with a broken femur to
still come by and drop the food off and visit
us in the parking lot. I do like that effort.
That's big.

Speaker 4 (34:43):
Yes, Now I'm starting of the week.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
Saying that Angie, you know, was upset for not being here,
and that's why she was crying.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
That's what she said. But now I'm wondering was it
just because she was in so much pain? She was crying?
Look at the text Nation, that's crazy. I'm a paramount.
I've seen grown men screaming in pain from a fractured firm.

Speaker 4 (35:04):
Oh yeah, that's one of the worst things you can
have happened.

Speaker 5 (35:07):
Yeah, And she said she was trying to tie down
her above ground pull and some stuff out in the
in the yard when a storm came rolling in and
the wind Augusta Wynn sent cent her for a flip
or something and landed on it.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
If she could have stood, I'd let her spin the wheel.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
We should have spent it form the femur is your
big boy.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
Guys, your big wonder.

Speaker 5 (35:33):
You think she stood there on one leg and cooked,
maybe cooked before she broke her fever.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
I don't know. I think that butterans were still hot. Yeah, yeah,
she had been cooking with one leg and oh, deviled eggs.
That's when we left. I said, that, did you? But again,
just like that TV, nobody listening. We don't listen. Why
did she tell us a little power? We're going to
get her rescheduled. You left with a little bit on
your on your just And we thought that that Angie

(36:01):
could give no more just we thought she couldn't give
any more. She tried to give Speedy one hundred dollars.
Did here's a good one Graves gonna hold a grude
the woman. She brought it with a broke famer, and
she brought peanuts. But the peanut man can't bring a
little back surgery. That's terrible, a little that's awful. I
didn't say it. I was reading with that she was.

Speaker 4 (36:21):
She was trying to give you a hundred bucks, and
I'm so glad we didn't. I think Speedy probably focketed it,
but I'm glad we acted like we I think he did.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
I'll tell you, can I tell you what I wasn't
ready for her. She brought us a Thanksgiving bread just
to the seats listen, broke leg I was not when
she was trying to give one hundred dollars, I didn't
know what it was about. At one point I thought
that she trying to donate, you know, to the ministry
to to our our five oh one seed three. And
then it dawned to me in the middle of it,

(36:52):
she was trying to give Speedy money for Speedy buy
me lunch promotion. That's the sweetest I wasn't ready for.
That was the devotion to the sh show is unparalleled.

Speaker 5 (37:03):
So she brings us all that food with a broke
black and tries to give us money.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
We don't deserve her, No, we don't know, don't. This
show is not good enough in that kind of devotion
lost family members.

Speaker 5 (37:14):
Uh you know I means.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
To family members.

Speaker 5 (37:17):
Yes, yeah, she's she's a snotty, crying mess.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Yeah, you're talking about listener of the year at least.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
A week.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
Here we go.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
I voted for Trump a babe without Trump.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
Hey, hey, hey, hey, so I know Speedy, this is
a struggle for you because you're you're pro Trump, uh,
and you love seeing Trump, but then you also suffer
from second hand embarrassment. Yep. And the Prime Minister, the
new one, Mark Carney, who is the new man for Canada. Uh,

(37:55):
this is going to be socially awkward.

Speaker 5 (37:57):
You talking about when he's sitting like with the elbow Rachel.

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Yeah, so he's going to be a little bit you
know how you know how you should do nervous gump. Oh, yes,
this is going to be nervous Prime Minister. Yeah, well
you could if you'll focus on his face while Trump
is talking. He's extreme, He's this is when he realizes, Wow,
so so kind of overstepped my you know a little bit.
He's going to start. I believe he's going to try

(38:22):
to be a little bold in the beginning and let
us know that Canada does not for sale. That mightn't,
haven't it.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
And this is the guy that replaced Justin Trudeau. Correct, Yea,
we were I was rooting for Pierre Paulivier.

Speaker 1 (38:33):
Yeah, which we.

Speaker 4 (38:34):
We played several clips of him on the show. He's
eating the apple and just tearing that journalist apart. It's
that guy.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
I wish he would have got it.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Yeah, I really wish Pierre would have won. Canada has
so many problems and they've once again they got rid
of Trudeau, but then they elected a guy who's going
to run the country very similar to true.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
Doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 4 (38:52):
It doesn't make any sense. And I think this, unfortunately,
might be a side effect of the Trump wrecking because
sometimes the Trump wrecking ball hits a building that you
don't want.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
It to hear.

Speaker 4 (39:04):
And I think the joke and what I'm.

Speaker 11 (39:07):
Basing the fifty first state thing, I'm basing that a
lot on the reaction that you got when you went
to Canada, Rick and you did the fifty first state joke,
and everybody was like, hey, no, that's not funny.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Yeah, I was in Toronto.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
In all fairness, you're right, right, And so I do
think that hurt Trump. I keep forgetting to have the
fish came on, that's not the fish. He's alive, he's
doing great, he's eating, he's pooping, he's eating, he's having
a great time. And I just think that that honestly
hurt Pierre a lot. So anyways, I just wanted to

(39:43):
get that out there that Trump sometimes the Trump wrecking
ball can be great and sometimes it can have side effects. AnyWho,
I want this clip. I'm sorry I went on an
that's all right, Alt Eddler.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
I knew that you were ready to launch. Yeah, Mark
Carney the new Prime Minister, and I'm with you, I think,
and I've made a huge mistake. That had such an
opportunity here and they just went back to the same
old thing. So here's Carney letting us know that Canada
will never be for sale.

Speaker 9 (40:09):
Just they get along very well.

Speaker 12 (40:10):
They like each other a lot well, if I may.
As you know from real estate, there are some places.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
That are never for sale.

Speaker 12 (40:20):
We're sitting in one right now, you know, bucking and
Palace that you visit it as well, and having met
with the owners of Canada over the course of the
campaign last several months. It's not for sale, won't be
for sale ever. But the opportunity is in the partnership
and what.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
We can build together done in the past.

Speaker 12 (40:41):
And part of that, as the President just said, is
with respect to our own security, and my government is
committed for a step change in our investment in Canadian
security and our partnership.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
And I'll say this.

Speaker 12 (40:54):
As well, that the President has revitalized internationalcurity, revitalized.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
NATO and US playing our full weight uh in NATO,
and that.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Will be part.

Speaker 6 (41:08):
They have.

Speaker 9 (41:09):
I must say Canada is stepping up the military participation
because Mark now you know they were low and now
they're stepping it up. And that's a very important thing.
But never say never, never.

Speaker 4 (41:21):
Said never, never never.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
He couldn't let it go.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
He couldnot wait to say that.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
And you know he knows what it does when he
says it.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
He's a design never say that's it.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
Okay, speedy, watch out because Trump's going to talk about
not lifting tariffs and now and then the next cut
after this one, we're gonna watch Carney's face when when
he when Trump will go on to claim that America
doesn't do much business. That one is the worst. Okay, okay,
this one here you have to really listen. The reporter
starts with a question, So just listen to what she asked.

Speaker 9 (41:58):
Is there anything he can see you the course of
your needs within today that gets you to lift cars
on Canada? Why not?

Speaker 1 (42:10):
So? Well?

Speaker 5 (42:11):
The question, if you couldn't hear it, was, is there
anything that the Prime Minister of Canada can say for
you to lift tariffs?

Speaker 1 (42:17):
And he says.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
No, no, just the way it is. And this clip
has the Trump saying that America doesn't do much business
with Canada. And then the steel one that you're talking about, Greg,
I actually have that as well.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
If you guys want all right, here's the one. Here's
the one about watch hit the Prime. What's all key
on Mark Carney's face? For those of you that can't
see him, we'll describe it for you. But listen a
little bit squirming as Trump talks about we don't really
need Canada dream of campaign Prime talk about the American vitrial.

(42:49):
How do you react?

Speaker 4 (42:50):
Canada decided not to shop with the American.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Store as much as before. I decided to partner with
other compries.

Speaker 9 (42:57):
Well, we don't do much business with Canada from our standpoint.
They do a lot of business with us. We're at
like four percent, and usually those things don't last very long.
You know, we have great things, great product, the kind
of product we sell nobody else can sell, including military. Look,
we make the best military equipment in the world. And

(43:17):
Canada buys our military equipment, which we appreciate. But we
make the best military equipment in the world by form.

Speaker 5 (43:25):
Oh and then do you go into the aluminum and
the steel, and this one is wow wow in cars
and all that.

Speaker 9 (43:35):
This is very friendly. This is not going to be
like we had another little blow up with somebody else
that was much different. This is a very friendly conversation.
But we want to make our own cars.

Speaker 10 (43:48):
We don't really want.

Speaker 9 (43:49):
Cars from Canada, oh boy. And we put tariffs on
cars from Canada and at a certain point it won't
make economic sense for Canada to build those cars. And
we don't want steel from Canada because we're making our
own steel and we're having massive steel plants being built
right now as we speak. We really don't want Canadian steel,

(44:10):
and we don't want Canadian aluminum and various other things
because we want to be able to do it ourselves,
and sitting read next because of you know, past thinking
of people. We have a tremendous deficit with Canada. In
other words, they have a surplus with us, and there's
no reason for us to be subsidized in Canada. Canada
is a place that we'll have to be able to

(44:33):
take care of itself economically.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
Right next to each That is so awkward. That is
so awkward.

Speaker 5 (44:41):
It also went into you know, you know the new
prime minister, so he's very woke and all that. He
kind of went into to some you know, making fun
of some of the woke stuff too, the Dei stuff,
and yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
It's it's it was.

Speaker 5 (44:55):
It was an eye opening day for the Canadian Prime Minister.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
I think I bet oh Mark back. He said, wow,
he'll just talk about it right there in front of me.
It did, which I appreciate as opposed to say it
behind somebody's back. Yes, he got to talking like about
the the he claimed the Obama Library being built, how
it's been a disaster because they won't just hit it
out and let the best do it. They're spreading it
out them on the fact, been a disaster. He did. Yeah, so, uh,

(45:21):
that's very trump like. I think that, you know, there's
a lot of ways it can play, but I think
the positive is a very aggressive. As you said, there's
sometimes a you know, a destructive situation with the old
the old destruction ball swinging all over the place. But

(45:43):
to see the aggressive approach to America getting better deals
and being independent and not so dependent on other people,
and if other people need stuff from us, you know,
it's it's a beneficial deal for us as well. Ye uh.
So that that's crystal clear and a positives which, by

(46:10):
the way, some great ones. But Adam, I'm just telling
you there's concern out there about for mister Chin.

Speaker 4 (46:16):
I know people need to just relax.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
Mister Chin. I do see him going up to the
surface a lot.

Speaker 4 (46:22):
That's because he's I've fed him and he's hungry. He's
going up to the surface because he's hungry and I've
already fed him. Mister Chin, don't be greedy.

Speaker 1 (46:29):
Okay, how about this at the art at the pond,
it has turned over twice, right, twice? Right, and the
days prior to the turnover, the fish come to the
surface gasping for air. Right, there's not enough air in
the water. He's dead fish swimming. Look, I'm over and
under on chin.

Speaker 5 (46:45):
Greg, Hey, up on this here, I need to see
him and see there it is. Oh, he is at
the top.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
He's up there because he got him in a vase.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
That'd be a he's not gasp. You don't want me,
you know.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
He wants to be fed.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
No, you've I thought you've already fed him. Don't overfeed chance.

Speaker 4 (47:09):
Overfeed him. That makes him happy and healthy.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Well he is, uh, he is Asian coach, so probably
whatever food you gave him in thirty minutes, he's hungry against.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
See he just went for it.

Speaker 1 (47:17):
Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (47:18):
He loving it. He loves the show.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
I worried about the oxygen hanging their chins.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
I am replacing the water every couple of days. So
that's how you get around to have a narrator. You
got to replace it every day, or even you can like,
you know, stir it and stir it with your finger
like that.

Speaker 5 (47:34):
Do you have one of those little tubes you put
a little bubble at the bottom.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
I'm not, you know, I might have one.

Speaker 4 (47:38):
We're not doing all that.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Yeah, you could do that.

Speaker 4 (47:40):
I'm doing all that.

Speaker 1 (47:41):
You know you look what you've done, listener, Listener of
the year, broken Feme or Angie. I actually dropped it,
just a little. I cut up into real fine pieces.
I dropped some of the devil leg in there yesterday. Yeah,
he loved it. Loved it, man, he loved it. Tore
it up.

Speaker 4 (47:55):
He does have a weird lump like a lot of times. Okay,
I worked at a pet store for I actually know
about this.

Speaker 6 (48:02):
I know.

Speaker 4 (48:03):
I joke around like I don't.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
His pet store thing is like speedy referring to Hobie.

Speaker 4 (48:07):
Yeah, they don't feed the fish a lot at pet stores.
They purposefully don't feed them a lot because it dirties
up the water. It dirties you know, you you're really
just trying to keep them fishing pet stores. I saw
some horrific things at the pet store. One time, I
dropped a Pallett jack on the back of a mouse

(48:28):
that it escaped.

Speaker 1 (48:29):
Well, he was scurrying around by his front legs.

Speaker 4 (48:33):
It's horrifying. I'll never forget it.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
But who wants mouse? We all try to kill mice.

Speaker 4 (48:39):
Yeah, y'all, I mean I saw some horrible things.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
I bet you did the circle.

Speaker 4 (48:44):
Of life if you know what I mean you feed
the snakes.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (48:49):
You know at that time that store did not have
a reptile section with which hurt.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
It wasn't a real pet.

Speaker 4 (48:55):
Lots of fish and ferrets and cats and dogs, ferrots,
we had ferrets, we had gerbils.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
How long did you worked?

Speaker 3 (49:01):
Three?

Speaker 4 (49:01):
Three years?

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Three years? I worked there for three You were the
weird guy at the pet store.

Speaker 4 (49:05):
For the weird guy guy, I was the cool guy.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
I want you to imagine a long great coming soon
to the Rick Birders Show YouTube channel, The Chris Ander
documentary Pet Cemetery, The Dark Side of the Pet Store.
Did you have long hair short hair while you were there?

Speaker 6 (49:28):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (49:29):
He had gauges and had long hair.

Speaker 4 (49:31):
Got in trouble, had to get a haircut, so I both.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
But they got you're get in trouble and they say
go cut your hair.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
No, it was with my parents.

Speaker 1 (49:38):
Oh they saw that. I ain't.

Speaker 4 (49:41):
Hey, check your attitude power, We're cutting that hair.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
Unless you can provide for yourself with that that store
money right right?

Speaker 4 (49:48):
That was back when y'all. When I got we went
from like five twenty five to or five seventy five
to seven twenty five. I was like, I'm rich, I'm
making seven twenty five an hour.

Speaker 6 (49:58):
This is awesome.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
Greg Picture of the US Dateline investigates pet stores and
you look and they've got him all shadowed out and
put that weird voice on him. One time we talked
to the former Greg and Chris Adler told us something
that would shocked us. All turned over.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
Real real, you know cover you know.

Speaker 13 (50:30):
That.

Speaker 1 (50:31):
You know, before Rocky married Adrien, she was worked at
the pastor was weird and you know, weirdly, and.

Speaker 4 (50:36):
Then like when she took her glasses off, she was
all sexy, just like me, just like this guy.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Yeah. Of course that led to the comment from from
one of Rocky's employers. Yes, that was oh yeah, yeah,
yeah back then you can you could say it then
just picture and that exact pet store that was in Rocky.
That's the one I say. Did you have to clean
the cages out and everything?

Speaker 4 (51:02):
Yes, I had to do everything. Puppies one time. We
would have occasionally they like adoption agencies would come in,
but we didn't sell puppies like that particular chain was
anti puppy farming. All that.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
Now due restaurants have health inspectors.

Speaker 5 (51:19):
Is there an inspector that goes by pet stores and
checks the quality and up key, not.

Speaker 4 (51:24):
As much of you as you'd want.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
Probably, are you open to me taking chin down to
the farm and use them as bait and get a
big largemouth.

Speaker 4 (51:31):
I'm not over that. I'm attached to him now, and
I think the audiences too. People say hey to them
all the time. They're like, what a great fish addler.
You're so cool. You general the cool guy at the
pet store. I remember, I remember now, not.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
Like all the other weird people. You know, being the
cool guy at the pet store is almost like being
the guy who you know is a biological male and
you just wouldn't women's sports. You know, it's not It's
not a I mean to be the coolest guy at
the pet stores.

Speaker 4 (52:00):
Leak, no frog, No frog pet store.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
That was when he wanted to be a veterinarian.

Speaker 4 (52:06):
Right to go into animal.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
Yes, yeah, I like that. I like the idea of
being a vet. Didn't know what would require so much study.

Speaker 4 (52:18):
Here's what I decided. I was like, I like animals
as a hobby, and I will have them as you know, pets.
I don't want it to because when once it becomes work,
it becomes work. And it's it's you know, it's so
I was like, I'm gonna keep this a fun thing
because I've done this for my job for a while.

Speaker 6 (52:33):
Plus.

Speaker 4 (52:33):
Yes, lots of math involved with with.

Speaker 5 (52:36):
No because you know, you wanted to be a vet
when you tried to be a dog, acted like a
dog as a you know, it all.

Speaker 4 (52:42):
Goes back to that. I honestly wanted to be the
crocodile hunter Steve or when a crocodile remember that. When
he passed away, it was a sad day. And I
mean on the anniversary of that day, I wear a
khaki shirt in his honor. I'm not joking around. Nothing
funny about that.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Okay, Sorry, I didn't mean to chuckle. Have you seen
his son? His son just does videos and it's like
almost like Steve is alive again. Like you follow him?

Speaker 4 (53:07):
I do follow.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
What about Bendy.

Speaker 4 (53:10):
Let's see Robert Irwin. Oh, he weighed in on the
hundred man versus one hundred gorilla debate. He did. It's like, krikey,
you think you'd win that. I don't think he has
a dirty mouth. He's always doing family content.

Speaker 8 (53:24):
Believe I am weighing in on this right now. But
I have been asked this question so much in the
last week.

Speaker 13 (53:32):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 8 (53:34):
Like I'm getting asked on the street now, who would
win one hundred people or a gorilla? Okay, I have
a couple of thoughts on this. First of all, I
don't know gorilla is a strong mate, like really, but
it's one hundred people, I'm not sure. Just as an
animal conservationist, fighting an endangered species just doesn't sit right

(53:58):
with more questions, but like, like, let's how many people
does it take to save gorillas?

Speaker 4 (54:03):
That's good question, he would answer, is that you trying
to do it?

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Isn't try to an Australian accent. It's horrible. Maybe the
worst attempt they got it.

Speaker 4 (54:20):
Uh, but don't worry. I'm keeping the the air whatever
in the water, y'all.

Speaker 5 (54:26):
Just over a quick update, don't hope me, He replied
to my question did he have does he have a
star id?

Speaker 1 (54:32):
And of course he does.

Speaker 4 (54:33):
Okay, somebody used Somebody used AI to make a battle
versus the gorillas again, and they just y'all, the AI
is just getting better and better.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
This is amazing.

Speaker 4 (54:45):
That's what it would look like, right, That's more like
King Kong verse one hundred.

Speaker 8 (54:48):
Man.

Speaker 4 (54:48):
No, Wow, there's Greg getting destroyed getting smashed in the
face by a guerrilla.

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
There was an off off color meatball. It was coming,
It was coming. Hello, Rick Burgers Show. Unscreen phone calls go.

Speaker 10 (01:02:35):
Ahead, why shirt noise, Old spady.

Speaker 1 (01:02:44):
Oh wow, It's almost like what if you know how,
sometimes you're sitting up, you know how, sometimes you get
you you're fishing and you get in a hold s.
I'm catching that blue gill right here. Oh yeah, there's
a pile of blue gill right here. For some reason,
we're fishing and we hit this same area. They were
just like, we're just catching the same fish over and
over against all and it's all right. Thanks a lot
of a good segment. That was fabulous. Let me tell

(01:03:06):
you it lived up to the hype it did. If
you don't believe they're unscreened, then all you got to
do is listen. We'll be back. We have much more
to cover today on this edition. Don't forget Wednesday, Bible
study Today. Job continues Job twelve today, noon Central, one
o'clock Eastern on the Rick Burgers Show YouTube channel the archives.
Soon after this is just because I got more here ye.

(01:03:36):
Shador Sanders fan not him fan files a one hundred
million dollar lawsuit against the NFL for shocking draft slide. Now,
what the does that have to do with this person?
The allegation here is going to blow your mind in

(01:03:57):
the NFL. And also, this person apparently is not aware
of quarterbacks and players that were picked before Shador, including
the first pick of the draft, alleging racial discrimination. What
draft were they watch? I don't know what draft. Cam
Ward is black, Yes he is. Guys, the entire draft

(01:04:19):
if you, I mean, it's not very diverse, which is fine.
I don't care. I want the best to go. I
don't care what color you are. Yeah, mill Roe was
drafted ahead of Shador from Alabama. Last time I checked.
He's black. Yeah, last time I checked, most of the
draft was black. That's what I'm saying. The uh, she's fine,
I mean the best go.

Speaker 7 (01:04:35):
Who cares.

Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
The lawsuit is going to go as far as to
bring up the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty four. Coy, Well,
this is somebody just trying to be funny, right. The
decisions made regarding Sanders may have been influenced by racial discrimination,
violating his rights as a player. That's in the lawsuit.
But how was this person damaged? Yeah? I mean they

(01:04:59):
heard their feelings. Yeah, it says that there is a
An anonymous fan of the quarterback has filed a one
hundred million dollar lawsuit. The plaintiff is self identified Georgia
native and a fan of Sanders team Colorado. So he's
upset because he thinks the NFL had something to do

(01:05:21):
with him dropping and that caused him emotional pain. He
wanst to be paid for that, I guess so, and
the loss they had a conspiracy against he hurts for him. Yeah,
civil Rights Act, you can you can Civil Rights Act
of nineteen sixty four. Okay, yeah, I know, I can
see you. Because the draft didn't go the way I
wanted it to, that's what you're saying. Yeah. However, we

(01:05:42):
need to make this clear. Sanders and his family have
not expressed any sort of grievance about the slide of
the draft position. They they do not agree with there
was any racial discrimination, and they may disagree with the
assessment of.

Speaker 3 (01:06:01):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
And this person is saying it was not fair to
Shador apparently because he's black is the only reason why
they did this. That they leaked the information about him
being cocky, that he wasn't prepared and tanked his interviews
that's battleline. B. Don't you think.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
I know that?

Speaker 1 (01:06:20):
Weird? There's multiple sources. It's a legit story. That's bizarre,
to say the least. They're acting like they leaked it.
The coaches. If this is true that his interviews went bad,
they'll talk amongst themselves, you know, they'll know each other.
So anyway, and he said, and he's doing all the
stuff anonymous fans down Zi, Yeah, I saw David from

(01:06:43):
Flowery Brant. Yeah, that's Finney. So the anonymous fan of
Shador sanders for some reason, if you're gonna file a lawsuit,
and I'm with you, Greg, I don't think you can
file one on behalf of somebody.

Speaker 6 (01:06:54):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:06:54):
I mean that you were hurt. But they're saying that
this caused them a mental anguish because they're so tore up.
He fail so far in the draft. It bothered him
in his The NFL's fault that he did it, so
they owe him money. Go some reason doing Shadar wrong
has affected him. How about if I'm in charge of
people that that bring lawsuits and this comes across my desk,

(01:07:16):
I think I can go ahead and stamp out when done,
move on. I thought we're not doing this.

Speaker 4 (01:07:20):
Tom Brady waited on it, and he said he actually
actually texted Shade Or Sanders about his draft position. Commented
on it on the Impulsive podcast. If you guys want
to catch a clip of that.

Speaker 13 (01:07:33):
One, I actually texted Shador because I know him very well,
and I said, dude, like, whatever happens wherever you go,
Like that's your first day, Day two matters more than
the draft. I was one ninety nine. Yeah, so who
could speak on it better than me? Like what that
really means? Use it as motivation. You're going to get
your chances. Go take advantage of it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
That's the bottom line. Boom and I say, Tom Brady
can absolutely speak to that. Pigged one yeah, and became
arguably the best quarterback the NFL's ever seen.

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
Yeah, shoulder was what pick one fifty something, fifth fifth round.

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
Fifth rounder. Yeah, I don't remember. I thought that it
was at two hundred and something. Oh, okay, you know
this is where I can't remember. This is where you know,
stuff like this would stop one. You know what, this
is ridiculous. You've got to pay for everything, Yeah, yeah,
any cost that you Yeah, you're goes You're gonna have
to pay the administrative cost of filing it, your lawyer

(01:08:29):
and somebody wasting it and clerk and you lose.

Speaker 10 (01:08:32):
You give the bill.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
First of all, the lawsuit, it should just be dead.
I'm a fan and this has hurt me. Yeah. And
then the second one is dealing with the NFL, And
you're going to say, based on how the draft went,
that there was any racial discrimination against Shador Sanders. I mean,
that's absurd and it's disrespectful to people who truly, as
we've said before, may encounter racism. This kind of stuff.

(01:08:57):
All that does is is diluted and water it down.
It's ridiculous. Yeah. So now here's the big question. Do
you guys think that your door Sanders will listen to
Tom Brady. We'll get his chance now he's playing, And
all fairness to Brady, Brady didn't have to go to
try to get through the Cleveland Brown thing, the Cleveland

(01:09:18):
Brown's organization. That's its tough place. That's a tough place
to go, and there's pretty good many quarterbacks there at
the moment. Yeah, so it's gonna say he's got to
beat out some folks, so he may get traded, he
may end up being there. Bottom line, is however it
all works out. Will shr Door Sanders be a successful
quarterback in the NFL? And I don't know enough about him.

(01:09:39):
I haven't seen him play a lot. I haven't either.
What's your definition of successful? Successful? Is that our team contends.
We're in the playoffs, So it's not career, it's it's
it's the team he's on. I make the team better
and I'm I'm great, But I complete a lot of passes.
I moved the offense and I'm successful. Not that he

(01:10:00):
made a lot of money. If the defense can't stop anybody,
that's not on me, not I will say yes, I don't.
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:10:07):
I've got just a general to guess. Will he be
on a team? I keep forgetting that. I have the
fish cam going and I keep showing the fish you
love that. Will he be on a team and be
the starter for four years or more? Will he be
a starting quarterback in the NFL for four years or more?

Speaker 1 (01:10:25):
Speedy says, yes, No, you that's not what you are. Well,
you said successful. I think that you just said the team.
You didn't say can you be a successful quarterback? You're not.
That's a different question though. That's four years, four seasons
in the NFL as a starting quarterback. That's a different question.

Speaker 4 (01:10:40):
That's a successful run as a quarterback.

Speaker 7 (01:10:42):
Yeah, this is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:10:51):
Okay, So here's another thing. Why do we keep having
fighter jets fall off of aircraft carriers? You know that
the first one was can we can we keep on there?

Speaker 5 (01:10:59):
Whose like like we were trying to avoid some type
of you know, because they've they've.

Speaker 1 (01:11:04):
Tried to take out all that. We're making a maneuver.

Speaker 5 (01:11:07):
We're making a maneuver. At first, we thought it just
rolled off, and we're like, how that happened? Sure, apparently
there was a maneuver in it and it and it
slid off, which shouldn't happen.

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
I'll give you that. But it was expensiveness.

Speaker 5 (01:11:17):
But now another one's gone, another one's rolled out.

Speaker 1 (01:11:19):
I had you said they had the parachute on they had, Yeah,
the pilots were in it. Two US Navy pilots ejected
while attempting to land a fighter jet on an aircraft
carrier yesterday, resulting in the aircraft being lost in the
Red Sea. Second incident in a week.

Speaker 5 (01:11:38):
It really is amazing just trying to land it grabs
that wire and stops it, and that all they all
have names, And I apologize for knowing that did it
miss it?

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
Is that what it happened? It doesn't. And it was
landing on the flight deck when the a little different
when I know you like Maverick and stuff, when the
other one just fell off they were turning, it fell
off the thing. Yeah, I don't know what the Smiths
Navy people will know. I'm sorry that I don't. It
says when the arrestment failed causing the aircraft to go overboard,

(01:12:09):
is that what grabs them stops them? I'm assuming. Yeah,
I'm telling you.

Speaker 4 (01:12:13):
I know y'all are screaming at us, arresting cable.

Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
There you go, that's that cable.

Speaker 4 (01:12:18):
Arresting cable.

Speaker 1 (01:12:19):
They should have put for my benefit of the story,
that thing that grabs the tail and stops them. So
when they so on the landing that they extended that
the landing too much and it missed the cable. No,
it says it failed. It failed like it just like
I've got you and I'm supposed to stop you and
I found have you?

Speaker 5 (01:12:36):
Have you seen the engines and everything underneath the where
the landing? Where the what that controls that cable and stuff.
It's pretty it's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (01:12:44):
Catapult too that. Yeah, they fly, it throws them off.
I'm not I'm not trying to. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:12:49):
Yeah, there's the hydraulics and everything and the engines underneath
all that.

Speaker 1 (01:12:53):
It's pretty impressive.

Speaker 6 (01:12:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:12:55):
Really saw that on Smith's Smiths one time. Yeah. So
they didn't work. Bottom line, it didn't grasp. Not good
and they had to they had to eject as it
was going off into the red seat. How about that.
That's not a good feeling when the it doesn't grab
you and you just go off the end of the
aircraft carry into the red sea.

Speaker 15 (01:13:14):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (01:13:15):
So there you go. So there's a couple of updates. Uh,
what's going on around the world? Moving back more to
cover we come back. We take the India Pakistani wari
to another level by discussing whether any of us like
Indian food. So stick around. I'm not big on it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:33):
I like it better than Pakistani food.

Speaker 1 (01:13:36):
Okay, picking sides again, we'll be back Lamb.

Speaker 4 (01:13:46):
Okay, you don't have to have Lamb camped chicken. You
need to start with some good chicken curry over rice
with some non bread. Greg, you're gonna like it.

Speaker 1 (01:13:54):
Let me say this now, I will. I will go
and tell you this, but that's just bread. That non
bread is really good. I will go to when we
usually go to Atlanta to your point speed, Yeah, we're
gonna eat it an Indian restaurant just about every time.
And my wife loves Indian food and our kids like it,
and they all get jacked. And then I'm sitting there going,
I gotta find something. And the non bread in the

(01:14:16):
inn and how you spell it, I feel like it's
anti bread.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:14:21):
I love that. I know it's a terrible name. I
agree with it, but it's kind of a peda type
bread really really good. Man. What I normally do is
get some sort. Now I don't see. Here's my biggest
issue with Indian food. And when you hear this, you
can go, well, birds, you're out. I don't like curry.
I'm an anti curry out. What about the gut, the
gut grenade effect, it's.

Speaker 4 (01:14:41):
There, consider it a clean it's there, you get armpits.

Speaker 1 (01:14:46):
So what I do is is I don't go mixed
in with it. I don't go super spicy. I don't
go fat. People there, yes, some of them have that that.
What did you call an almost you?

Speaker 4 (01:14:57):
Yeah, it's called a sandal. We wear them.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
We wear them to the buttered chicken. It's not quite
quite a shoe. It's like I see a string going
your toes. I don't see anything else.

Speaker 3 (01:15:14):
But there.

Speaker 1 (01:15:17):
So here's the one you go with. Greg, I'm looking
at what looked what you got from from text nation.
I have a neighbor from India and not Cherokee. Greg,
straight up India. Okay, fantastic buttered chicken. The butter chicken
is good. Had I had buttered chicken last night? Those
pictures that y'all just showed that, none of it looked
good to me. Greg, it's an uphill.

Speaker 4 (01:15:37):
You like rice?

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
I like rice?

Speaker 4 (01:15:40):
You like like something like gravy?

Speaker 1 (01:15:42):
You need right there looks dangerous. Watch if I slid
some in front of you that the boys, you'd go okay?
Watch that?

Speaker 4 (01:15:54):
He Do you like spicy food?

Speaker 6 (01:15:56):
Greg?

Speaker 4 (01:15:56):
I do okay to a point, buddy, I'm missing out.

Speaker 1 (01:15:59):
Im gonna ask you to go in and get it.
I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna wait in the car and
then I don't. One reason I don't I don't have
access to it. I don't have access to a like
Indian food.

Speaker 4 (01:16:10):
I could hit a rock with it for you do.

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
Ain't talking about where. I'm talking about where I actually stay. Great,
But you're here a good bit you can, idiot, Why
you're here?

Speaker 4 (01:16:17):
You're you work here every day.

Speaker 3 (01:16:20):
You're here?

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
Now, stuff the eating here? Greg, you're here now. I
don't leave here, And I know when you are here.
You think Jimmy Dean and nuts. I know I got
that course you will go get your sacrifice there that wants. Yeah,
let me take some that requires great to actually turn left?

Speaker 8 (01:16:38):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:16:39):
Can you believe that?

Speaker 3 (01:16:40):
You can't?

Speaker 1 (01:16:41):
You can't get him out of his area?

Speaker 14 (01:16:42):
No, you go.

Speaker 1 (01:16:43):
He goes right by a planet fitness. Oh that's funny,
looks over at it. You know why I don't like that?
Because that a turnaround thing you gotta do.

Speaker 4 (01:16:49):
Yes, Yes, this one. You gotta pass it and then
go back.

Speaker 1 (01:16:53):
I mean, I know your dad well, but not real well,
but he is your dad, of course he is. Men
Don't Run in the Rain is really a book about Greg. Yeah,
didn't like to turn around, Rick. He didn't go work
out because he didn't like to turn got me. I
got to tell you something I don't really have an
issue with that.

Speaker 12 (01:17:12):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
I find a place that was on my Soither road.
I know, well, I don't like it. It's not my favorite,
but it's not it's not a deal break. The only thing,
but the only thing worse than not wanting to go to,
you know, going refusing to go to a place you
kind of like because you got to turn around. It's
really easy not to go to a place you don't
want to be at anything. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that I

(01:17:34):
was looking for, Greg, I think I don't. I don't
know about you in Indian food. I don't know about it.
Where are you own Greek food? Like Greek food, Love
Greek food? All right? Said? Do you like peter bread? Yeah? Yeah,
I do too, love peter bread like the Mediterranean food.

Speaker 12 (01:17:47):
Do.

Speaker 1 (01:17:47):
Here's what I do. I get something has kind of
a sauce on that's pretty good, and I get the
non fresh out of the oven warm to bring it
to you, and I rub it in that sauce on
the sh I'm sopping.

Speaker 4 (01:17:55):
It, Greg, And it's got you know how I know
how you like burned things?

Speaker 14 (01:17:59):
Greg?

Speaker 6 (01:17:59):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:17:59):
Yeah, this non bread they burn it just in spots.
It is so good, especially get a warm love it good?

Speaker 1 (01:18:09):
None bread, I feel like it's negative. Can I ask
you a question? Because I know where you're at. It
doesn't it's just the the picky eater as a child.
Does it come out of you? Every now and then
his little boy completely down. He'll try to stick it up,
looking around and stuff like that. Yeah, I feel you
on that. Yeah, but I'm way better used to speed.

Speaker 4 (01:18:30):
You're a picky eater too, You are? You are a
picky eater too.

Speaker 3 (01:18:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:18:34):
I think you're you're you're You're right to a degree,
I would describe speedy this way. He's an indecisive eater. Now,
that's a fact. He don't know what he likes. He doesn't,
he didn't have any idea.

Speaker 4 (01:18:46):
I was sitting next to him at a steakhouse one
time we went to as a show straightforward. His steak
was a little under and y'all.

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
He was just like, yeah, he don't like it, and
any of all, he don't like it. He don't like him.
But then he orders of filet mignon, which I'm sorry, Yeah,
no way for that not to be read, buddy, What
what are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (01:19:05):
What we were?

Speaker 1 (01:19:07):
It was just twenty eighteen, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:19:09):
Twenty sixteen. Yea, yeah, I haven't forgotten it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:12):
I don't even remember the best one. I remember we
were eating and you also got in a fight, remember that.
I don't remember what about. I don't need the screaming
at each other in the screaming, Yeah.

Speaker 14 (01:19:22):
You know that.

Speaker 4 (01:19:23):
Oh yeah, that was the scream that was at the
Mexican restaurant. And Speedy miss heard what I was saying
and he thought that I was accusing him of something
which I didn't know. I'm I don't remember it. I'll
communicate not well, So that was fine. That was fine.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
You didn't even communicate this well, right right? I had
to get up and leave the table. No, I remember
that we were there. Okay, First of all, you've never
got up any table. I know that, because that's a
good point.

Speaker 4 (01:19:51):
It was a Mexican restaurant.

Speaker 1 (01:19:52):
Yeah, we used to eat there all.

Speaker 4 (01:19:54):
Do you know what Mexican food is?

Speaker 14 (01:19:55):
Greg?

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
Is that in Mexico? Listen? Do you think Greg's gonna
get that from a Mexican restauran table? Because there's chips
and sauce. You ain't getting up? I love, Can y'all?
Can y'all go to a Mexican restaurant and not get
chips and sauce. No, I should, but I can't. No,
because for you, that's where you. I get giddy thinking
about them before I get there. You know why. You
know why because you ever looked at how many in

(01:20:16):
a basket? That's a lot. If you're asking for another basket,
fill it up. Anybody, anybody in this room ever go
in the Mexican restaurant and not empty the basket? Never?
Never chips? How about chips? Yes, let me ask your question.

Speaker 5 (01:20:33):
Can y'all dip a chip and uh and cheese dip
and it not get on the table?

Speaker 1 (01:20:38):
No? Impossible. I I don't think I've ever ever been
able to other body. It's gonna get on my shirt.
Not everybody, It'll run. And let me tell you where
I go down here. For some reason, I always keept
trying to pull it off. I want the cheese and
the sausa. I try to get some sauca come through
the cheese and see if I make it all work.
It's a disaster.

Speaker 6 (01:20:55):
Yes, you have to.

Speaker 1 (01:20:56):
And then when I finally get the bite, I realize
most of it's on the table. I went nuts except
for the bart of my shirt.

Speaker 4 (01:21:04):
You know Sinker to Mile. Stopped by two Mexican restaurants
on my way home with my kids because I like
the red sausa from one place and I like the
case so better from another. That is chips free.

Speaker 1 (01:21:18):
You need counseling, freaking I gotta. I got an address.
One of the texts Okay, Speedy didn't buy the They
couln't believe Speedy as cheap as he is. That one
was on the house. You know, we were at a
client thing. Yeah, I wasn't paying for that. Let me,
I will say this. The fla is my favorite though. Yeah,
but you ain't when it's coming off here they got

(01:21:39):
a butterfly. Oh no, are you know a butterfly for you?

Speaker 6 (01:21:46):
Just make saw it?

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
Well, I've had them different ways, but I didn't say please.
But that way they can get it darker in there.
So what he thought if you're in decisive eater. But
you know what, great when it comes off at his
debit card, which is it's clean and pristine. If you
look at Speedy's debit cards like it just came into you,
just like you just came in the mail. It's got

(01:22:08):
so shining, you know. But if it's ever ever used.
It's curainly it is ain't going or flank steak.

Speaker 6 (01:22:19):
The great flanks?

Speaker 1 (01:22:23):
What's spinny? Wow, you must have just got a new
debit card and I've had this for years. The fact
that's about that out of day they just painted it green.
Oh good night, we'll be back.

Speaker 5 (01:22:33):
Like that said, I'm taking great to an Indian restaurant.

Speaker 1 (01:22:36):
We're going and so he can have a bad attitude
to that because he will uh huh, We'll be right back.

Speaker 5 (01:22:46):
Can I give you one thing? A Mexican restaurant tip?

Speaker 3 (01:22:49):
A hack?

Speaker 1 (01:22:49):
Of course you can't. Okay, what gets somebod else to
buy it from Blake Prime?

Speaker 6 (01:22:52):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:22:52):
From Blake broken? Okay, here he goes. Here comes one
percent body fats waiting in. He says he's drinking on
pre burned for the Mexican restaurant to avoid the chips.

Speaker 5 (01:23:03):
Who isn't what's it's an instant weight gainer, he says,
Order the salsa and guacamole and have them bring a
plate of raw bell peppers, Salt the peppers and use
them as your chip.

Speaker 6 (01:23:16):
Can you do that?

Speaker 4 (01:23:17):
I mean that actually sounds that's it sounds.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
That sounds better than the chip.

Speaker 4 (01:23:21):
It doesn't sound better. It sounds good, though.

Speaker 1 (01:23:24):
Let me tell you what it sounds like. Blake prime
a recipe for acid reflux. Yeah, that's what that sounds like.

Speaker 4 (01:23:29):
Well, plus will they do that for you? One Bell pepper? Please?

Speaker 3 (01:23:31):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:23:32):
Will they do that? Said the Would you mind cutting
it up a little bit? He said?

Speaker 5 (01:23:36):
With chips, your body is just looking for the and
and uh he said, says the peppers will do this
for you, and you can eat as them as you want.

Speaker 1 (01:23:46):
So he says, the crunch, sound and texture is where
we're attracted to. Well, just the crunch, and it says,
and the saints. So the peppers. There's a big difference
between crunching down on a pepper and crunching down on
a chip. Yeah, I'm just telling you that's a healthy choice.
And you can eat all of them you want. Yeah,
but then you've just put a bunch of Bell peppers
into your into your digestive system, and now you're gonna

(01:24:06):
be burping up you acid reflux. Can't sleep? How about this?
Maybe I like the taste of a chip better than
I do a Bell pepper. Take that prime, you're just saying,
I mean you could you could eat a dog do
do too. But I'm not going there. Do you can
your obsession with everything dispatched dog the example, there's other

(01:24:27):
bad exams. Deal a lot with that. There's a lot
around one. There's an other. There's other bad examples, Greg,
find some more. You know what I'm saying, Google bad
examples dirt eating dirt. Let's say something you could. You
could eat a stick and it'll crunch. Okay, that's matter.
That's better because if the others crunching, it's been after
a while. That's right. What's this? What's on the stick? Yeah,

(01:24:48):
that's on the stick?

Speaker 3 (01:24:49):
Heard of that?

Speaker 1 (01:24:50):
All right? Let me let me say that. Somebody said
this Blake Prime wrong?

Speaker 4 (01:24:55):
Greg?

Speaker 1 (01:24:56):
Right again?

Speaker 10 (01:24:57):
But no?

Speaker 1 (01:24:58):
What about I guess I want the chips free when
I ordered, I didn't orders to eat right.

Speaker 5 (01:25:05):
You know, I probably never was saying that instead of
the weight gainer of chips.

Speaker 1 (01:25:09):
If you wanted to do that, well, I get that.
It's a little here's my joys. I will have the
weight gainer of chips. That's what I'm going on with.
What about I noticed he doesn't He wouldn't even let
you near case. So he'll come kick'll he'll take case
I'll just wreck it all.

Speaker 4 (01:25:24):
It acts like we didn't even say case.

Speaker 1 (01:25:25):
What did y'alls go to at a Mexican restaurant? You're
talking about what my main dish?

Speaker 6 (01:25:29):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:25:30):
You order it now? Are fat Rick? Now?

Speaker 4 (01:25:34):
Fat Rick?

Speaker 1 (01:25:35):
Actually fat fatter Rick because I'm still fat, but fatter
rick fat or Rick? You want that one?

Speaker 10 (01:25:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
Oh fatter Rick. It went just I'm so committed to
the simplicity. I'm calling out a number. I'll take the eleven.

Speaker 8 (01:25:49):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (01:25:50):
Usually was a burrito, either chicken or beef burrito, and
I never thought that was enough, so I'd always get
something that also featured one taco and then some other
like a what are the other things that have? Yeah,
here's what I Getlada enchilada, something like that. Now, if
I was really gonna get wild, I would get there.

Speaker 10 (01:26:11):
What was that?

Speaker 1 (01:26:12):
What's that one? That's just nothing but a big old
piece of fried puff with stuff in it. Chimney changka, yeah,
chummy choca.

Speaker 10 (01:26:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
I used to go to that. Yeah, but the chuma
choga they don't even tell you the calorie count. I'm
try to make Blake Hampy on this one. Oh, good
luck with that Bryn. I'm gonna get the fahida and
it's still simmering when they bring it, which I love
that hot. But I won't eat the pitas. I'll just
eat the vegetables and the meat. Called you're saying you
might as well get you as well be a bell

(01:26:39):
pepper guy. Then no, you've done the same. Yeah, but
it's different. But you've done the same thing. You've kicked
the peda. So you do you like chips more than
you like peda? I mean more than you like tortillas,
Absolutely more than tortillas. Oh yeah, oh wow, I get
the polo loco. I'm just saying, I'm sure we'd rather
use the tortill. Probably cheepest single. No, it's just the rice,
rice and grilled chicken. I would rather use the tortilla,

(01:27:01):
but I'm willing to give it up if I had
to give something up now healthier, Rick, and most most
Maxian restaurants have this. We'll find a dish and I
don't put the keso on it or any of that.
I find a grilled chicken breast and they used to
have some stir fried vegetables. And if I'm really gonna
maybe go a little further, I might take a little
bit of the rice, That's what I normally did. But
where But then where I crash and burn? If if

(01:27:22):
Mexican restaurant, and I won't tell them not to bring it.
When they'll bring that, and then they'll give you like
a little aluminum thing full of warm tortillas. Yes, I
can't say no to those. So then before you know what,
I'm just making a feeds. Yes, you remember those homemade
tortillas in Texas Deer Hunt restaurant. They made them there?

(01:27:43):
Who was there? Happed the mine? Who was there?

Speaker 4 (01:27:49):
Who's there?

Speaker 1 (01:27:49):
Nothing? It was the trip y'all left me at the airport.
It was one of those. You had a lot of
different people at the restaurant. Right, when's the last time
where's the last time you went to?

Speaker 6 (01:27:59):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:27:59):
Yeah, yeah right, I remember that matter of fact that
you never got to find with the guy? Remember that? Yah? Yeah,
I do remember that. Yeah, when you said that's one
your down down, I made a bad here finally, remember, Yeah,
that was the that was the one. That's one. I
know you didn't greg. You made that clear, you announced
out loud. That's like when I saw one, you said

(01:28:21):

This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 6 (01:29:51):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:29:51):
Uh, Now this is one of those signs that you
may have a drug problem in your community.

Speaker 3 (01:29:57):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:29:59):
The headline says it all. And Adler I believe has
a video to go with it, and you can hear
them discussing this. Hello to Springfield Township in Ohio. Police
in Springfield Township had an animal encounter and I'm gonna
say this also revealed we got a drug problem in

(01:30:20):
Springfield Township. Local police find a raccoon smoking a meth pipe. Now,
if if, if, if the raccoons in your community have
meth pipes in their mouth, you have got a drug problem.
So here here comes the video of the encounter with

(01:30:43):
the raccoon. Uh, and you're gonna hear some discussions about
the meth pipe.

Speaker 6 (01:30:49):
Hi, how are we doing today?

Speaker 4 (01:30:50):
I'm officer run in Springfield Township.

Speaker 16 (01:30:51):
Please spirm Okay, Saba, Saba, you are suspended with a
warrant for your arrest, and so do me a favor.

Speaker 6 (01:31:04):
Turn off the car, put the keys up on the
dash of cane. You for that warrant and because you
are suspended actively. Oh well, the raccoon has her mes pipe.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
Goodness, her mets pipe.

Speaker 6 (01:31:22):
He's playing with a pie right now. Don't reach for it.
That's evidence now I don't want him to have Well,
that's why I'm gonna do it. Any buddy. It's okay.

Speaker 1 (01:31:34):
Look that car in two minutes and right across my the.

Speaker 4 (01:31:38):
Raccoon's holding the met pie.

Speaker 6 (01:31:40):
Yeah, this is what she's smoking mething. Okay, the raccoons
playing with her pipe.

Speaker 4 (01:31:47):
That is I can't believe it.

Speaker 1 (01:31:49):
Yes, unbelievable. Raccoon was sid driver's just playing with the
math raccoon. Okay, I didn't read the story. I just
saw the headlines and the windows. It looks like lattice. Ready.
Well Greg Nice used the word lattice, and Adler said,
I've got a video. So I stopped looking at it,
I thought we were going to discover a raccoon, like
behind a dumpster.

Speaker 12 (01:32:09):
This is.

Speaker 1 (01:32:12):
I had no idea this story featured a raccoon in
the car that they pulled over about someone who has
a warrant. Yeah, uh, and and the and the meth
pipe is in the car and the raccoon is putting
it in his mouth. And and Greg, there's a raccoon
in the car, tried describing the car. Decide, it's just

(01:32:32):
a mess.

Speaker 5 (01:32:34):
Do we have window nets on the opposite side windows?

Speaker 1 (01:32:39):
It's lattice like people put around porches. You really are
very well versed on lattice. Yeah, you put it in
around Yeah, that's it on the back glass. Yeah, I
don't know why. And then there's like a net on
the front. That's what I was wondering because and inside
the car it looks like a you if you walked
into a room where a hoarder lived.

Speaker 5 (01:32:58):
Picture hoarder of your college son, his roommate.

Speaker 1 (01:33:00):
Yeah, picture a hoarder's room with wheels on it.

Speaker 3 (01:33:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
I mean there there is junk and trash throughout that
entire car. So when they first pulled it over, I
could hear a dog barking. So there was a dog
in a ractor that is correct.

Speaker 4 (01:33:12):
Back there, dogs and raccoons. You got a really old lady,
I guess, sitting shotgun, and then you got the lady
that was arrested in the driver's seat. All this raccoon
has an actual crack pipe in its mouth. Yes it does, right,
there's the bulb. There's the pipe.

Speaker 1 (01:33:27):
Smoking. Myth is the raccoons name Josh? She said, be quiet, Josh,
or stop Josh. I think that was the dog. That
may be the dog.

Speaker 4 (01:33:36):
I think she said dogs and the subtitler messed up
or the or she said Josh, one of the two.
I thought she said dogs.

Speaker 1 (01:33:43):
Okay, so we are we just gonna move on that.
There's people driving around and the old lady that was
riding gun I guess the raccoons in her lap. I
mean where the guy come from? Where the dude a
caseworker I thought he was, could be it could be
a case worker, a bials bond bail bondsman.

Speaker 4 (01:34:04):
Yeah, okay, how are we doing today?

Speaker 6 (01:34:06):
I'm off su random Springfield town Ship.

Speaker 16 (01:34:07):
Please spirmy sabbage sabag Josh, he said, Josh, reason I
stop here you are? You were suspended with a warrant
for your arrest, and so do me a favor. Turn
off the car, put the keys up on the dish,
paying you for that warrant.

Speaker 6 (01:34:23):
Because you are suspended actively.

Speaker 17 (01:34:25):
Oh hey, that guy right there, he's part of part
of it, pounding the card there for the car.

Speaker 4 (01:34:38):
He's a record guy.

Speaker 6 (01:34:39):
Maybe her mes plate. He's playing with a meth right now. No,
don't reach for it. That's evidence. Now, I don't want
him to have Well, that's why I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 1 (01:34:51):
She would not be a contestant and make Mama smile again.
She just has nothing. But she's smoking that mask till
you can tell by our teeth. And Grandma said that
myth pipe. I'll tell you what's the raccoon's done with it.

Speaker 4 (01:35:03):
It's not good for you, by the way, math not
good for you, No, not good.

Speaker 1 (01:35:07):
And he'll go after those teeth. That's why the raccoon.
You ain't got to worry about him buying you. That's true.
Do you know he is sitting there that just on
that last few he has the pipe in his mind.

Speaker 10 (01:35:17):
Yes, it does.

Speaker 1 (01:35:19):
Trash Panda, do y'all think there are Do you think
he has had enough with the meth pipe that he's
taking it in. He looks like he knows there. It
looks like he knows how to use fingers. Yeah, you
know you got to watch him though. You know what
his name is, Bogart. Yeah, he wasn't.

Speaker 4 (01:35:39):
Sharing our raccoons stole our meth again, darn.

Speaker 1 (01:35:42):
It, gummy, No, No, this is not our myth pipe.
It's the raccoon. It's not our Yeah, we've been trying
to work with him. He's Look, he's got a problem.
He's falling off the wagon. We're taking him right now
to rehab. You know what it is. Look, the raccoon
was with snitching O mama. Yep, here's just not true anyway,

(01:36:06):
Go ahead, you don't think that ever happened. No, not
the way they're saying it all the time. They said
the best of shows could be thunderdomeb No, Look, the
best of shows if you added up the amount of
hours that we would host a year on Best of
Us and the bits that we played it, you know,
every now and then one might get repeated, but it

(01:36:28):
wasn't all the time because we actually proud of I said,
because we'd write them all down and then when you
came in, you would see what, well, this guy's okay,
I ain't say it never happened. Well, and it didn't
normally happen. It was because if I pulled one off
of the the laptop, it may have a different title
than where you got it. Somewhere up it's the same

(01:36:50):
bit but titled different. They said Thunderdom. Well they're there.
They don't know what they meant by that, but that
was rare. We actually sat down and would write it
out and try to go by it. But you know,
when you're about two and a half weeks into it,
you know, I was kind of tough keep up. At
my point, I would think it would be very tough
to keep up with. Well, yeah, I mean we would
write them down and and especially past year was three

(01:37:12):
weeks that Chris almost covered almost a month. Yeah, they were.
They were just saying that sometimes on old best of
shows that Speed and Greg would play the same bits
because of you know, it's just hard to keep up
with all of it. Well, I mean, I don't see
where does it say there would play a particular bit
and they stay gre with hosted place. Very rare. I'm

(01:37:33):
not saying it never happened but it was rare and
we tried to avoid it. But that way, well, effort
was there. For here's the way I look at it.
We don't complain when radio stations played the same songs
every three it was the worst thing.

Speaker 6 (01:37:45):
It's a hit.

Speaker 1 (01:37:45):
I like hearing the hit again. It ain't the worst
thing to get. That's right, all right, we're a little
now over here. Sorry we were talking. Well, I know
y'all didn't like the the text guy. He came on
to your property and he pushed both of them. He
did some reason, we have elevated text to a new level.
They're always right. Oh I love text nations. Oh no, no, No,

(01:38:08):
text nation to me is I love the information. It's
a lot of it. But let me tell you what also,
it's it's a place to be passionately wrong. Yeah, sometimes
we like it's the burning bush. I love text.

Speaker 4 (01:38:22):
We assume it's Stephen Hawking typing on the other side
of the screen.

Speaker 3 (01:38:25):
There.

Speaker 1 (01:38:27):
So after you gave us an update out of Mississippi,
that was extremely interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:38:32):
Yeah, I was hearing this the other day and there's
a lot of talk about.

Speaker 1 (01:38:35):
Can I chat with text nations see if they.

Speaker 4 (01:38:37):
See see what they think? Honestly, I'm just trying to
learn about this and figure it out as I go
to By the way, it's funny where I have to
go right now in just a second is an orientation
for schools. So schools on my mind. I was playing
a clip of John Stossel, and we've heard all this
stuff about the Department of Education and good ridden and

(01:38:58):
Trump is getting rid of it.

Speaker 1 (01:38:59):
Oh no, the I can't wait for it to go.

Speaker 4 (01:39:02):
Everybody's panicking. And then so I asked Speedy. He's from Mississippi.
And I asked him because I had just heard about this.
Have you heard about the Mississippi miracle?

Speaker 1 (01:39:12):
Have you, Speedy? Have you come out my birth?

Speaker 4 (01:39:18):
I have not talked about the birth of Calvin Speedy.

Speaker 5 (01:39:21):
Will No, I have not, And I told you I
had not, And then you were letting us know briefly
what it was all about.

Speaker 4 (01:39:27):
So Mississippi, uh about a decade ago, Mississippi was one
of the lowest in the nations when it comes to
uh uh literacy, children's ability to read and meeting those
look meeting those reading standards.

Speaker 1 (01:39:43):
And that's back when Speedy was I would staring at me, right, And.

Speaker 4 (01:39:48):
So the Mississippi Miracle is when Mississippi made the decision
to refocus on phonics, stop doing some of these newer
techniques common core and some other weird things. They're going
to refocus on com phonics, and they're going to stop
the no Child Left Behind policy, in which you continue
to push kids to the next grade, you allow them

(01:40:10):
to pass even though they aren't meeting, say the reading standards,
for example, Mississippi abandoned that. They said in twenty thirteen,
we're gonna do a literacy based Promotion Act, and it's
focusing on, like I said, early literacy and what they
call the third grade gate. And so instead of giving
out you guys have been talking about it for thirty years,

(01:40:33):
instead of giving out participation trophies, they are making them
earn it in Mississippi and the Mississippi one of the
poorest nations in the state. And if you care about
poor people, and if you care about black people, one
of the blackest nations in the state. They sorry, yeah,
thank you, thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:40:52):
He's about to make fun of you.

Speaker 4 (01:40:53):
Thank you, thank you. Stays in the nation passionately states
in the nation interrupt, It's.

Speaker 1 (01:40:58):
Okay, you don't have to try to get in in
a record time.

Speaker 4 (01:41:01):
Just slow down, okay, So they're world.

Speaker 1 (01:41:05):
Hey, to his fit defense, he knows how you are.
If it's too long, you stop believing it's too long,
you guys. So he's trying to hurry. No, you're doing good.

Speaker 4 (01:41:12):
One of the thing, one of the poorest and one
of the blackest, and if you care about that. Mississippi, y'all,
depending on who you ask, they're either in the top
ten or the top three when it comes to reading, lity,
literacy among these children. They don't have the money to
have these numbers, supposedly according to people that say, we
need to funnel all this money, and they're making kids

(01:41:33):
earn it. They're getting rid of participation trophies. They're failing
kids that can't read. Oh, that's what an idea.

Speaker 1 (01:41:41):
First, all three of us are thankful that was not practicoo.

Speaker 4 (01:41:45):
Right, But the y'all, the the reading scores in the
poor old state of Mississippi are in some of the
top in the nation now because of what they're calling
the Mississippi miracle. So that's all I want to thank you,
thank you, and don't.

Speaker 1 (01:41:57):
You agree though you're welcome, even though I I do
think that No Child Left Behind was greatly flawed. But
don't you think some of the problem with that. I
don't think the intention of No Child Left Behind was
ever intended to be past them even if they don't
make the standard. It meant, don't neglect them, give them
their best shot. Be sure they're getting the education. You

(01:42:19):
know that not some kids get more education than others,
some who maybe need a little more help. You're not
helping them. It was never intended for you to just
pass a kid that I know, But it was never intended.
You're yes, cause when we were coming up, you remember,
people failed. Yes, they repeated they're great seniors unless you

(01:42:40):
could make it up in summer school. They said, either
you drop out or you come back and you do
it again.

Speaker 6 (01:42:45):
They failed.

Speaker 1 (01:42:46):
I knew a lot of people that failed.

Speaker 4 (01:42:48):
Yes, it's crazy. The States jumped from one of the
worst in the nation in educational outcomes to one of
the best in just over a decade.

Speaker 1 (01:42:56):
Right here. I remember, I remember one time I got
you off the thing. I was glad that. Remember we
had a friend of ours that failed and made him
he was now in our grade. Now, Yeah, it was cool.
We got to hang out we got to hang out
with him more. Yeah, I ended up graduating.

Speaker 4 (01:43:10):
You be the oldest in your grade. You'll be driving
before everybody have full beard.

Speaker 1 (01:43:14):
Do you remember when when we went from seventh to
eighth grade? That's when you went to the high school then,
even though it's a junior high party. But when eighth
grade took out a lot of people, I knew a
lot of people repeated eighth grade. Yeah, eighth grade took
a lot of us out.

Speaker 4 (01:43:29):
The lot of us.

Speaker 1 (01:43:30):
So nowadays they won't fail them. But what a strange concept.
I haven't heard that we're not failing children that are
here that are immigrants and that they get they can
only make as low as a C.

Speaker 10 (01:43:40):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:43:41):
I don't know for what reason, and so let me
make sure I have this right, Missippy Miracle. You're saying
that if you tell children in the second grade, if
they have not met the requirement of their reading skills,
they have to repeat the second grade, that that has
led to now Mississippi's reading and literacy UH ranking to
go way up. Yes, so accountability and requiring kids to

(01:44:04):
make the standard so kids can actually make the standard
might be harder for some than others, but most of
them make the standard and can read better. I just
want to be sure I have that right. Yes, so
kids can read better if you don't pass them on
when they can't read. Yes, okay, just making sure.

Speaker 4 (01:44:18):
The state ended up holding back around ten percent of
third graders every year who failed a reading test, Governor Reeves.
And this was passed by a Republican governor and legislature
back in twenty thirteen. And like I said, they call
it the Mississippi Miracle. But Governor Reeves says, it's not

(01:44:38):
really a miracle at all. It's really a result of
conservative reforms implemented in public education.

Speaker 1 (01:44:44):
Iijiic, it just makes sense.

Speaker 6 (01:44:46):
It does.

Speaker 1 (01:44:47):
So there we go, all dad, I know you got
to go. Yeah, we'll see you tomorrow, buddy, all right,
I see you guys. All right, thank you for getting
the Mississippi Miracle in before you left. Yeah, that's good stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:44:56):
I'm headed to orientation right now. Hopefully they don't realize
I can't read good. Yeah, you know, that's hopefully. What
if they failed my kid because of me? Sorry, your father, Obviously.
