Speaker 1 (00:00):
I go to the airport a lot, A fly a lot,
and I like the airport. I don't really like the
X ray machines. I don't like the body scanner. You know,
the one you got to stand in raise your arms
up like this and kind of zips around you and
it identifies things on your body. It'll be like, oh,
you got something going on here. And then the TSA
guy comes over and he looks. He goes, ah, you're good.
(00:21):
I'm like, yeah, but what did see though? I mean,
I mean it saw something. You know, I got some weird,
undiagnosed thing going on. Be walking around all day going
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
My collar?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Punt?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
In Nashville, we got new X ray machines for our bags.
And these machines are a lot slower than the old machines.
And I was complaining about it one day and this
TSA guy goes, yeah, it's a little slower, but these
are more precise, he said. These machines can tell the
difference in between a candle and a stick of C four.
I go, okay, so you've not been able to do
(01:04):
that this whole time. Then you're telling me for twenty
years people have been slipping Downamite through here in a
Yankee candlebag and you had no idea. Huh, that's wild.
(01:25):
They have millions of dollars of security equipment in there.
Sometimes you make it all the way through the other
side and there'll be a TSA guy there with a
dog sniffing all your bags. And I always want to
be like, listen, if the machines don't work, you know,
just say it don't work, but don't spend millions. And
then your backup as some old hound dog in a jacket.
(01:48):
I don't know what the dogs are looking for. You know,
it's not weed. I'll tell you that.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
And I'm like, well, wake them.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
We're having a good time. That's his catchphrase. And as always,
when you leave the airport, you come away with more
questions than answers. Dusty Slay he is coming to Denver
in Colorado Springs the Paramount Theater, Pike's Peak Center in
order there and that's coming up this weekend Friday May second,
Saturday May third. He joined us now on Ryan Schuling Live. Dusty,
(02:19):
thank you so much for your time.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
All right, Hey, I'm buck to be here. Thanks for
having me.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Now, your experience at airports I'm sure you've had many,
and they varied throughout the country. Do you recall any
times that you've visited here in Denver and what experience
you may have had here at DA.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Well, only that the Denver Airport is super creepy. But
other than that because he got these weird murals in there,
and he got a horse that people call Blucifer. Other
than that, it's been great. I've had no trouble. I
have PSA pre check and clear, I zoom right through
the Denver Airport. It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
One note, I'm Blucifer, Dusty. Not sure if you're aware of,
but it might be a good tidbit coming in for
you to using your actors. Put it out there, Bluesifer,
the statue're referring to the blue horse with the red
eyes killed its sculptor fell on it and killed him.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Yeah, I did know that, and it's insane. All of
that is insane, and you know I don't when it
comes to the TSA. Just for the record, I don't
hate the individual person. I know these people. They're just working.
They're like, I'm looking for a job. The TSA is hiring,
I'll take the job, But I hate the TSA, it's insane.
(03:30):
They're yelling at me in the airport. I'm like, I
fly all the time, and you're yelling at me weird stuff,
take off your balance. I'm like, well, I have apprecheck
so I don't have to take off my belt. And
they're like and they just, I don't know, it's insane
in there.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Tickets available dustysleigh dot com. And last year he released
his debut one hour Netflix stand up comedy special Working Man,
And this is part of his tour called The Night
Shift Too, or what you just heard there from Jimmy
Fallon was just a couple of months ago. Dusty, take
us through your history and comedy where it derives from.
What led you to this point? Why are you here?
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Well, I don't know why I'm here. Why as an
interesting quarture I think, but you know, I just, you know,
I was, you know, just a pesticide salesman in Charleston,
South Carolina, just doing comedy for fun. And then I
started to get good at comedy and I was like, oh,
I wasn't. I never thought of comedy as a career.
(04:29):
I never thought I'm from, you know, basically a blue
collar family, and I thought, well, I'll just be working.
That's what I'll do. I'll one day own a home
and and those are all fine. That was my goal.
That was what I planned to do. But then I
started to get good at this hobby that I had,
and I want a contest, and I said, you know what,
maybe I could do something with this. And then I
(04:51):
quit drinking, and loa did things get better. My whole
life got better, and my comedy got way better. And
then I, you know, within two years of quitting drinking,
I was a full time comic and I've been full
time since then. I've been eleven years as a full
time comic, and you know, thirteen years without drinking. So
(05:17):
and that's, you know, that's how I got here. Why
that's a whole different question. But I will say I've
been thinking about this a little bit lately. I've always
kind of taken for granted that I've always been around
people that joked and laughed. Both of my parents are
funny people, and they like to laugh. And I don't
think people laugh as much as I thought people were laughing.
(05:37):
So it does feel good to laugh, and I don't
I never try to act like I'm providing some service
out here. But I do think to some degree people
need laughter, and I'm happy to give it to them
without making fun of them, without challenging their ideals on
life or their political beliefs. I'm just out here to
make a few jokes and let you have a good time.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Paramount Denver this Friday, May second, seven pm. The start
time there Pike's Peak Center, Colorado Springs. That's the next day, Saturday,
May third, also a seven pm show and tickets available
at Dustysleigh dot com. He joined us here on Ryan
Schuling Live. Now, Dusty, your last name is made for
this business. You know, people ask did you kill out there?
You killed out there? Well, you slay out there, And
(06:21):
I looked it up. I had that's got to be
a stage name. That's your real name.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
That's my real name. Yeah, slay, Yeah, I mean, I
feel and you know what, My my legal first name
is Dustin. I used to not tell people that, but
I'm okay telling people that. But nobody ever called me that,
even my parents. My parents named me Dustin, but I
have always called me Dusty. So you know, the question
(06:45):
that I ask is what what's the name? Then it's
the name, the legal thing written down on paper or
is the name the thing your parents have always called you?
And I go for the latter. I think Dusty Sligh
is my birth name, and yeah, I think I'm I'm born.
You don't name a kid Dusty Sleigh and expect him
just to live a normal life. You know, I had
(07:09):
to find my own way. I mean, I was out
here drinking and partying and doing whatever for all my twenties.
And I know everybody says, well, how are you partying
in your twenties? But you know I was probably wilder
than most. There are people wilder than me, for sure,
But you know, I think I was wilder than the
average person. But I had a good time, and in
the end, I was like, all right, I did it.
(07:30):
Now let's move on. Now a new.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Chapter, new chapter, indeed, and he's coming to Denver and
Colorado Springs this week on Dusty Slay joining us. Dusty,
congratulations on thirteen years of sobriety. My fiance Kelsey is
ten years sober. It has changed her life, would you say?
And you kind of mentioned this touchdown, but I want
to dig a little deeper. Was that the turning point
for you not only in your life but in your
(07:53):
comedy that led to your arrival on the big stage,
big breaks happening for you, those two things coincide or
what was that timeline.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Like for you? I would say one hundred percent, because
you know, people had a friend who used to make
a joke. He would say, I quit drinking, I lost
thirty pounds and all my friends, And I think there
is something to that, right, I did lose weight when
I quit drinking. And I also I wouldn't say I
(08:22):
lost friends, But you know, when you were drinking, I
was living in Charleston, South Carolina. It's just a kind
of a party city. It's on the beach, and it's
just just fun to drink. It's fun to day drink there.
So you just start to build a lifestyle where all
your friends are just hanging out in this bar, and
you go there and join your friends. And then when
(08:43):
you quit drinking, those people they don't stop being your friends,
but they just continue living their lives and you've gotten
off that. Now you're no longer in that, so as
a byproduct, you're not hanging out. So I found myself
with just all this free time. I was like, man,
I used to you know, I used to spend all
my time in this bar laughing and hang on my friends.
(09:06):
Now I have so much free time. So I started
writing jokes. I started and when I would perform instead
of drinking while I was at the open mic, I
remembered the jokes that I told that night, and I
got more organized, and my whole life just came together
in a much better way, and I was like focused down.
A lot of people started to not like me because
(09:27):
I was a bit of a wreck as a drinker,
and I think they liked me being a wreck. They
liked being a wreck around me and me being a wreck.
And now that I'm have it together, I think just
my existence felt judgmental to them. But you know, came
out on the other side and I feel good about it.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Get your tickets dussyslay dot com Paramount Theater Denver this
Friday night and Pike's Peak Center, Colorado Springs on Saturday night.
I'll to make sure I say this right. Your hometown
Opalika or.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Opalika, Opelikah, you got you nailed.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
It the first time, Okay, always trust your first instinct.
So Dusty kind of a two part question here about
life in Opelaika, Alabama. You now reside in Nashville, Tennessee.
I'm jealous. What a great city to be a part
of Grand o' lopper. You've performed there, et cetera. But
your upbringing, your background, what is the common thread maybe
from your experience growing up to all the places you
(10:21):
go to to perform comedy, whether it's in the Northeast
to New York City for Jimmy Fallon or out here
in Colorado. And then what is maybe the biggest difference
that you noticed as you tour on the road.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Well, I would think the thing, I don't know, this
kind of thing may seem cliche, but I would say
the thing that is the same. It's like people really
are the same, right, It's like like, you know, there's
city people and there's rural people, but like rural people
are all the same. And that's like, that's you know,
that's who I am. I Like. There's a song about
John Anderson called Countryside where he talks about how much
(10:56):
he likes the country, but he's also like, I like
the city too, And that's how I am, right. I
I like the country. I prefer to live in the country,
but I like to go do city things. So I
say all that to say, you know, get out in
the country. I always assumed that only the rednecks were
in Alabama growing up. I thought everything below the Mason
Dixon line was country and everybody was redneck, and above
(11:19):
that was all cities and all crime, and everybody was
being murdered. And then I started to travel the whole
country in a car and I'm like, oh, it's all
Alabama out here. The whole country is Alabama outside of
the cities, you know, And then all the cities are
you know, you know, they're different, but you know, the
(11:40):
people are the same. They're like, we're city people. I
don't know if that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh, it makes a lot of sense. And I've been
all over the country.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Too, and the main difference is and I think this
is changing a little bit because of the Internet, but
the main difference is accents. Yeah, and grocery store chains,
you know, because we all have the same you know, Walmart, Target,
Low's Home Depot, but the grocery stores are different, bigley wiggily,
(12:07):
bigley wiggly. In the South, you know, you've got a
HIV out in not a h e b out out
in the West. Yeah. Yeah, Well atv all always makes
me think of an STV. But it's a great grocery store.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Oh backhanded compliment. They're supreme. But Dusty slay our guests.
One more question here, Dusty, so appreciate your time and
so appreciate that you're coming here to Colorado. What can
people expect? Maybe they've seen your Netflix special, maybe they'll
check it out before they come see you, and that's
working Man. What is the biggest difference between working Man
what you're going to be doing on the night shift tour,
and what can people just expect in general when they
(12:48):
come out to see you.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Well, the show, jokes wise, will be completely different from
working Man. I also got another hour on YouTube you
can watch, and my jokes will be completely different from that.
But I like to tell people i go, my show's
relatively clean. I do have some adult jokes. I talk
about some adult stuff, but it's mostly a clean show.
So you can bring your grandmother, you can bring your
(13:10):
aunt out to the show, and they're not going to
be a barrett that you brought them there. You're not
going to be sitting by your grandmother going oh this
is a weird one right now. It's all you know.
But I do you know, probably the dirtiest thing I
do I've been doing it recently is I'm talking about
all the stores and restaurants that are out there now
that all have dirty names. And I don't know why
(13:33):
we're doing this, but I'm like, you know, I want
to take my daughter to a sporting good store, and
I'm like, what a weird name this place has? You know,
I don't even want to say it because we're on
the radio, But so my joke seems dirty. But all
I'm doing is telling you the names of these places
and so. But you know, I just I just try
(13:56):
to have fun. I don't do any you know I got.
I got my own political believe I got my own
religious beliefs, but I don't talk about them in my
stand up show. I just give you a fun show
where no matter your political beliefs or your religious beliefs
or anything, you're just gonna have fun. You're not going
to think about any of that stuff during my show.
And you know, it's a great time. We just it's
(14:17):
just relaxed. I heard I read a comment the other
day they said the longer I watched this guy, the
funnier he gets. And that is what I think happens
with my show. Sometimes at the beginning of the show,
I think people think. I think people are a little
unsure about what I'm doing because I fidget around a lot,
and you know, I say, you know what I mean
(14:37):
a bunch, But you know, you get into a rhythm
and you're and then the show I do. Sometimes I'll
do an hour and twenty minutes and people are laughing
the whole time.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
So if you're looking to do the same, Great times
at Great Venues Paramount Theater in Denver. That's Friday this Friday,
seven pm, May second, and then on Saturday the very
next night at Pike's Peak Center in Colorado Springs, also
a seven pm show. Tickets available at dustyslay dot com.
Dusty's so grateful for your time. Enjoy your time here
in Colorado. We'll talk to you again soon.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Now dustyslay dot com. You can get your tickets there.
There's a few remaining, but it's they're going quick like hotcakes.
Paramount Theater, Great Venue for Comedy, been there a few
times myself. If you don't want to buy tickets and
you want to go for free on the house on me.
You're welcome. I've got two pairs to give away, and
these are good seats. These are Section CC in the
(15:30):
orchestral level, so you're back a little bit, but you're
right in the middle. You're right in the middle, looking
right directly at the stage. Two pairs and the winners
are going to be as follows. Please follow the guidelines
so it makes it easier for me to transfer the
tickets to you. So I'll need a few things from
you name, first and last cell number where I can
(15:53):
contact you with my own cell number, and we're going
to have it a chord here. You agree not to
share mine, I will agree not to share yours. It's
a good deal. Your email address. This is very important too,
because I've got the tickets. They're waiting right now on
the Kronkey app, and I'm a gen xer, so I
can figure it out. But it takes me some time,
so I'm not like a boomer where I can't figure
(16:13):
it out and I just get frustrated. I do get frustrated,
but then I go through and I'm like, work it
through the mechanisms and I kind of ham hand my
way through it. That's a gen xer, millennial or younger
they like like Zach, I could hand them the phone.
Get there you go, Rye. I'll be dang it anyway.
So there's the tickets and all you got to do.
That information I just gave you, plus is a test
(16:36):
and your knowledge from listening to Dusty himself. How many
years has Dusty Slave been sober? Now there'd be a
variance there. Whoever's closest will be qualified to win. So
how many years has Dusty Slave been sober? A non drinker,
a teetotaler, if you will. And then the other question
(16:57):
if you don't know that one, I wasn't listening, Rye, Okay,
you're being honest. I appreciate that. What is Dusty Slay's
hometown name Dusty Slay's hometown either one of those two?
Send them along five seven, seven, three nine, name, first
and last sell number where I can contact you, email
(17:18):
address where I can send things, and you'll be registered
to win. Now, make sure you can go and use
the Dikets seven pm Friday night, Paramount Theater. Now, I'll
have this conversation with the winners if we get to
that point. You and I, But I believe parking is
(17:38):
included in this. I have some details along those lines
as well, and that's a nice little added feature in
bonus so five seven seven three nine, Dusty Sleigh, how
many years has he been sober? And or the name
of his hometown. If you get both, you're automatically going
to win first one in, first one served. Send those
along five seven seven three nine. If you would please
(17:59):
thank you for that this text as we go to
break and we'll have more Trump's hot takes on the
other side, Ryan, why do you insist we have to
have that conversation. Why can't we just be friends with
our neighbors without knowing where they stand politically? It's really
nobody's business. I remember when it used to be rude
to ask somebody how old they were and who they
(18:20):
voted for, etc. You're right. I think Abraham Lincoln had
a quote along those lines about you know, your vote
is your own personal, private business. I subscribe to that too.
In fact, there are many situations social scenarios texture I
agree with you one hundred percent where I might know
the people are liberal and I don't bring it up.
I don't troll people. I don't go home to Thanks
Damie and Christmas where every one of my other family
(18:40):
members is left of center, and I don't start those conversations.
I don't look to have those confrontations. I don't want
that argument. Dan was talking about that, I think last holiday,
and you know, once Trump won, that was my victory.
I didn't need to spike the football. So I'm not
going to bring it up. But ten times out of
ten when I'm talking Pauls with like a family member
(19:01):
or friend, they have brought it up. So I agree
with your point and your promise a time out. We're
back after this on Ryan Schuling Life.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
This is Denver's Toss Station with Michael Brown in the
morning and Dan Kaplis in the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Six thirty Khow Denver now impact traffic? This report is
sponsored by Discovered.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Oh was it good? Starting out the drive? No major problem.
There's a minor crash westbound seventy Havana that activity on
the shoulder. But if it's slow down that drive out
of Urrah, he's seventy getting heavier boat directions both speeds
say twenty five. She had interrted downtown at northbound Drive
already about fifteen minutes from University of tolfax wat to
the highways in good shape. You have some heavy traffic
in Littleton backed up. That's Santa fe at bowls with traffic.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Student feeling.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Guess what discovers accepted at ninety nine percent of place
is to take credit cards nationwide. You heard right, ninety
nine percent. If you don't think so, maybe it's time
to face facts. You're stuck in the past. Based on
the February twenty twenty four Nielsen Report. Learn more at
discover dot com.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Slash credit card A pragmatic, practical approach with priorities based
in principle. Those are my four p's. I try to
live by them because I like to win and I
seek winning at every turn. Well, you want to win
when it comes to your retirement planning as well your
wealth building your portfolio. How do you get from here
(20:26):
to there from A to Z? Well you need that
step B along the line. You can't go right from
A to Z. You don't want to do that. You
have to put some thought, effort, focus, research into this.
But you can't do it all yourself either. So I
go from my four piece to trajan wealths five piece.
They add one more and it just says follows. Proper
(20:48):
planning prevents poor performance, and that is the bedrock principle
upon which Trajan Wealth bases their services for you. The
five pe can be applied to most areas of your life,
but it's especially true for your finances. Now we know
all too well. You can't control what's happening with the
(21:10):
stock market. We're watching it. It's gonna go up, it's
gonna go down long term. Do you believe in the
Trump tariffs? Are you mad?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Set that emotion aside. Set the emotion aside. You can't
control what's happening with the stock mart. Can't worry about
what you can't control, but you can plan for it,
and you can control how you plan for it by
visiting the folks at Trajan Wealth. And they've been helping
clients with those five p's I mentioned for years. Trajan

(22:02):
a proud sponsor of Ryan Schuling Live and we're happy
to have them. Part three of four installments of Trump's
Hot takes here on Ryan Shuling Live. The autopen point
was an important one too. The media just lacks any
(22:23):
intellectual curiosity, journalistic gumption when it comes to such egregious
matters like that one. They just choose not to report it.
They choose to carry the water, you know. Alex Thompson
of Axios his acidine comment at the dinner over the weekend,
the White House Correspondence dinner was just breathtaking in its
(22:46):
lack of self awareness. And we'll get to that in
a moment. Oh, we have breaking news. I've been told
by the the man Zach what he got for us
breaking news.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
The Rockies have avoided the worst to thirty games start,
or tying the worst thirty games start in MLB history,
with a roaring two to one victory over the Atlanta Braves.
They are now five and twenty five.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, when you're four and twenty five and you win
two to one, that is a roaring victory. And we
will take it. Thank you, Zach for that bit of
good news.
Speaker 6 (23:17):
Careful going downtown today. I'm sure the celebrations are gonna
be wild.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
The post game extravaganza, it's gotta be a lot greasing
up the light poles. Yeah, oh yeah, like Philadelphia after
the Eagles won the Super Bowl. Very comparable. But you
gotta feel good. Where my mind immediately goes here is
for Jack and Jerry in the booth and Jesse. Those
are three j's, by the way. Yeah, you're calling these
games night after night, day after day. You're traveling with
(23:44):
the team, and it's lost after loss, and you get
this win, and I gotta tell you, it feels good,
so good for the Rockies. They're not gonna win the
World Series anytime soon, but at least for today, they're winners.
That's all that matters. I got this. I got some
texts here and they're from like to my direct phone.
I asked John Fabricatory, former Ice Field office director, about
(24:08):
this tattoo. And what the photo is is Kilmar Abrado
Garcia his left hand and on his knuckles, so between
you know, the actual knuckle that's the basted knuckle of
your hand and the middle knuckle on your hand, that
length of the finger where you make a fist and
you show the fist, that's where it is. And there's
(24:28):
a marijuana leaf. There's a smile with two x's, there's
a cross, there's a skull. Okay, I don't think that
was just for fun, just for funzies. Oh my god,
let's go get matching tattoos like Zach Girl's. That's how
Zach's girlfriend sounds in my mind. I'm just kidding. Does
she sound like that? Though? No, No, stay away from
(24:49):
the valley girl thing. I'm proud of his Zach well,
but you know what I mean where you're covin, I'm
not offended, don't worry, and I don't think. I don't
think Kilmar was al giddy and giggly or drunk or
whatever that led to the tattoo decision. Okay, but what
happens Terry Moran is partially right, and I think Donald
(25:12):
Trump's partially right. And I tried to go to the
arbiter of all of this in John fabricatory, because in
this photo it has M and S and one and
three above those images I described, but they're typed on
there they're kind of photoshopped on there. Terry Moran's not
wrong about that. However, the underlying context and the truth
(25:33):
of the matter is what do those signs mean? And
this is the response I got from Johnny Fabbs. I
hope someone explained it to him. If they didn't, they
fed up about the printed letters. It doesn't literally go hey,
I'm as thirteen, that's me. No, they are going to
be a little bit more cloak and dagger about it
(25:54):
because they use cloaks and daggers to commandeer apartment complexes
in Aurora, as Cyndi and Ed Remember will tell you.
But that is only a feature of Danielle Jerwinski's imagination.
According to Jared Paulis for which Kyle Clark gladly carried
the water. And there's my criticism of Comrade Kyle for
the day, because that was that was bad, That was
horrible lack of journalism. Cindy Ramiro guess what. She went
(26:19):
to Kyle Clark first. She had a breaking story. This
stuff was right on the cutting edge of what you
would want, you know, if you were a journalist looking
to report the truth and break a stort. He ignored her,
He ignored her. He did not respond to her. And
you know how I know that. One, Cindy said it.
She's a great person, she's a truth teller. She wouldn't
(26:41):
lie about that. She told me that's what happened. And two,
here's the good one. Kyle Clark was all pontificating on
X as he has wont to do about this whole situation,
trying to kind of, you know, do the shell game.
I didn't actually say it wasn't happening. It was a
two whitch responded not once, not twice, but at least
(27:02):
three times. Kyle, will you address the fact that Cindy
Romero emailed you about this story and you said nothing.
You did not respond to her. He never refuted that,
He never answered that, he never denied it, he never
admitted it. He was there, and I know he saw it.
I know he sees the things I post because in
(27:24):
one response at one time, Kyle offered the following, he
said to me, thanks, comrade, because I was praising his
performance as a moderator for a debate, and he did
a good job. That's the thing I'm willing to, you know,
call it like it is. And if he does a
good job, that's fine, but he doesn't. There's so many
instances where he is just obviously taking a partisan position
(27:50):
on an issue like the furries or transing the kids,
et cetera. And he'll really go after conservative moms out there.
Oh look out, you are number one on his target list,
especially female conservative Republicans like Heidi Ganaal, like Lauren Bobert.
You go down the list. There are many more, and
(28:12):
he's got a weird fixation on those folks. Talk to
Heidi about it sometimes, I have talk to Lauren about it.
Sometimes I have. It's weird, it's creepy. It's kind of creepy. Anyway,
Faboratory offers the following, Yes, yes, the symbols are indicative
of hidden messaging. That's a shocker, he continues, Just like
(28:33):
the lips tattoo on some gang members is indicative of
the number thirteen. So and it gives me a tattoo handbook,
which would be handy since I have exactly zero tattoos
myself and plan on getting none. Okay, you're the question, Well, Ryan,
what if you had a tattoo? What would you get?
The only tattoo I would ever entertain, likely in my
mind that I might get I won't get it. But
(28:55):
if I did, if I was like gun to mind,
you gotta get a tattoo, would be the old English
the Detroit Tiger's logo, because that's representative of something that
means something to me. Home anyway, side note trivial detail.
And he sends me this tattoo handbook and he says,
this is a very good guide from Canada, which marks
(29:16):
the very first time something useful for Canada it's ever
been submitted to the show. I'm joking, but maybe that
might be true. And uh, well, and on this text
that I got from Sheriff Steve Raams from earlier in
the program, and he prefaces it with me doing the
quote low paid work at my house while I listen. Well,
thanks for listening, sheriff. First of all. Secondly, yeah, it's
(29:37):
that work that no American wants to do. It's beneath us.
We need the help to come across the border, not
speak English, be paid servants wages and just be fine
with it. No, Sheriff Steve Raimsweld County doing the work
for himself, mowing the law. And you could see the
photo right here if you were Zach. He saw it
right there, mowing the lawn. Nobody's doing it for him.
(30:00):
There's got to be a neighbor kid. You're the sheriff.
Your neighbor kid comes cruising by. You know, maybe he
doesn't do anything wrong, but you make him think maybe
he did, and you're like, oh, excuse me, son, Sheriff.
Fraeme's here as well, Sorry, Sheriff, did I do something wrong?
Well tell me what I'm gonna do. Gonna cut your break.
I'm not gonna charge you this time, but you got
(30:20):
amway Alon. I see. That's why I'm not the sheriff,
because I would totally use an abuse that privilege as
often as possible. And Sheriff Remes is a man of
character and integrity serving out his term and unfortunately he'll
be retiring, but that means more of him. I think.
On this program and guest hosting for Dan, one can hope,
(30:43):
one can dream a time I were back. Guess what
one more installment? I got you?
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Four?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
The Fab four of Trump's hot takes. In his sit
down interview with Terry Moran also known as Moron ABC News,
we close out Ryan Schuling live after these words, Oh
my goodness, can I see you laughing over there. Did
you watch this interview? This is fascinating, the whole thing.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
The clip earlier, and yeah, it's it's very entertaining. But obviously,
I think all of our listeners know if you listen
to our broadcast, we have ABC News. Yeah, unfortunately as
our national feed, and I get many people generally during
Martino that either call and complain about it, not necessarily
(31:35):
about a problem, but we'res the troubleshooter, so we should
be able to shoot that trouble out.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
That's right. And uh, and.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
I'm just saying some of the complaints I get are like,
I just turn it down.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
That's what I do. I have to turn the volume down.
I just turn it back up, briefly explain why it
is the way that it is. And I don't like
it any more than our listeners do. But we have
the Fox News for you have two affiliations, two agreements contractually,
and we dedicate our Fox News feed for freedom, and
that fits in with the programming over there, that's more
than national stuff like Hannity on the local programming here. Basically,
(32:12):
we just got stuck with ABC News because that was
what was left by default.
Speaker 7 (32:16):
Well, KOA also gets Fox that one.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
See. That does make sense to me. I know Koa
is way more live than we are. Let's just call
it what it is. Yeah, so they should get ABC News.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
A hundred percent agree with you, Yeah, one hundred percent agreement.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
That Marty complains that Fox News is over there. Oh gosh,
and give him Abc. What are we doing here, Kelly?
I have no idea. Do you want me to go
in you Brendan and h Why don't know? You gotta
go away to Branda and Jojo? That might be a
tepper call. I think so, I think so. I think
you have a lot of about that. Well, he's got
to have sign off on it. Were inside baseball here,
(32:49):
you and me? All right, all right, work on it.
Please thank you our winners before we go off the air.
I want to make sure we announce these. So we
got one winner for sure, Perry King, You're going to
see Dusty Slay Friday night, Paramount Theater. Congratulations, enjoy and
the correct answer and how many years sober Dusty has
been correct answers? Thirteen? He nailed it, So, Perry, you're
(33:12):
going now. The other one's a little trickier. Jason Cedar
would have won, but he withdrew from the running because
he's got to go pick somebody up at the airport,
I think is what he said, taking his lady to
the airport Friday morning. And you don't have any friends, Jason.
I'm your friend, We are your friends. Kelly's your friend,
Zach's your friend. But I'm waiting on a return text
(33:32):
from Eric Manning. He the Alabama native Opelaika, that was
the hometown. Eric, you're a winner, but I got to
hear from you because he would be great. Well I
know that. And if Eric is unable to serve for
any reason, doesn't want to go, can't go, then we'll
have Andrew Dole will be an alternative winner. So Andrew,
(33:53):
stay tuned for that. I'm waiting on Eric. I hate
to do this to you, but we're out of time.
That's it for me from here for now. I'll talk
to you tomorrow. And Ryan Schuling l Uh
I go to the airport a lot, A fly a lot,
and I like the airport. I don't really like the
X ray machines. I don't like the body scanner. You know,
the one you got to stand in raise your arms
up like this and kind of zips around you and
it identifies things on your body. It'll be like, oh,
you got something going on here. And then the TSA
guy comes over and he looks. He goes, ah, you're good.
(00:21):
I'm like, yeah, but what did see though? I mean,
I mean it saw something. You know, I got some weird,
undiagnosed thing going on. Be walking around all day going
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
My collar?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Punt?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
In Nashville, we got new X ray machines for our bags.
And these machines are a lot slower than the old machines.
And I was complaining about it one day and this
TSA guy goes, yeah, it's a little slower, but these
are more precise, he said. These machines can tell the
difference in between a candle and a stick of C four.
I go, okay, so you've not been able to do
(01:04):
that this whole time. Then you're telling me for twenty
years people have been slipping Downamite through here in a
Yankee candlebag and you had no idea. Huh, that's wild.
(01:25):
They have millions of dollars of security equipment in there.
Sometimes you make it all the way through the other
side and there'll be a TSA guy there with a
dog sniffing all your bags. And I always want to
be like, listen, if the machines don't work, you know,
just say it don't work, but don't spend millions. And
then your backup as some old hound dog in a jacket.
(01:48):
I don't know what the dogs are looking for. You know,
it's not weed. I'll tell you that.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
And I'm like, well, wake them.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
We're having a good time. That's his catchphrase. And as always,
when you leave the airport, you come away with more
questions than answers. Dusty Slay he is coming to Denver
in Colorado Springs the Paramount Theater, Pike's Peak Center in
order there and that's coming up this weekend Friday May second,
Saturday May third. He joined us now on Ryan Schuling Live. Dusty,
(02:19):
thank you so much for your time.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
All right, Hey, I'm buck to be here. Thanks for
having me.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Now, your experience at airports I'm sure you've had many,
and they varied throughout the country. Do you recall any
times that you've visited here in Denver and what experience
you may have had here at DA.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Well, only that the Denver Airport is super creepy. But
other than that because he got these weird murals in there,
and he got a horse that people call Blucifer. Other
than that, it's been great. I've had no trouble. I
have PSA pre check and clear, I zoom right through
the Denver Airport. It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
One note, I'm Blucifer, Dusty. Not sure if you're aware of,
but it might be a good tidbit coming in for
you to using your actors. Put it out there, Bluesifer,
the statue're referring to the blue horse with the red
eyes killed its sculptor fell on it and killed him.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Yeah, I did know that, and it's insane. All of
that is insane, and you know I don't when it
comes to the TSA. Just for the record, I don't
hate the individual person. I know these people. They're just working.
They're like, I'm looking for a job. The TSA is hiring,
I'll take the job, But I hate the TSA, it's insane.
(03:30):
They're yelling at me in the airport. I'm like, I
fly all the time, and you're yelling at me weird stuff,
take off your balance. I'm like, well, I have apprecheck
so I don't have to take off my belt. And
they're like and they just, I don't know, it's insane
in there.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Tickets available dustysleigh dot com. And last year he released
his debut one hour Netflix stand up comedy special Working Man,
And this is part of his tour called The Night
Shift Too, or what you just heard there from Jimmy
Fallon was just a couple of months ago. Dusty, take
us through your history and comedy where it derives from.
What led you to this point? Why are you here?
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Well, I don't know why I'm here. Why as an
interesting quarture I think, but you know, I just, you know,
I was, you know, just a pesticide salesman in Charleston,
South Carolina, just doing comedy for fun. And then I
started to get good at comedy and I was like, oh,
I wasn't. I never thought of comedy as a career.
(04:29):
I never thought I'm from, you know, basically a blue
collar family, and I thought, well, I'll just be working.
That's what I'll do. I'll one day own a home
and and those are all fine. That was my goal.
That was what I planned to do. But then I
started to get good at this hobby that I had,
and I want a contest, and I said, you know what,
maybe I could do something with this. And then I
(04:51):
quit drinking, and loa did things get better. My whole
life got better, and my comedy got way better. And
then I, you know, within two years of quitting drinking,
I was a full time comic and I've been full
time since then. I've been eleven years as a full
time comic, and you know, thirteen years without drinking. So
(05:17):
and that's, you know, that's how I got here. Why
that's a whole different question. But I will say I've
been thinking about this a little bit lately. I've always
kind of taken for granted that I've always been around
people that joked and laughed. Both of my parents are
funny people, and they like to laugh. And I don't
think people laugh as much as I thought people were laughing.
(05:37):
So it does feel good to laugh, and I don't
I never try to act like I'm providing some service
out here. But I do think to some degree people
need laughter, and I'm happy to give it to them
without making fun of them, without challenging their ideals on
life or their political beliefs. I'm just out here to
make a few jokes and let you have a good time.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Paramount Denver this Friday, May second, seven pm. The start
time there Pike's Peak Center, Colorado Springs. That's the next day, Saturday,
May third, also a seven pm show and tickets available
at Dustysleigh dot com. He joined us here on Ryan
Schuling Live. Now, Dusty, your last name is made for
this business. You know, people ask did you kill out there?
You killed out there? Well, you slay out there, And
(06:21):
I looked it up. I had that's got to be
a stage name. That's your real name.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
That's my real name. Yeah, slay, Yeah, I mean, I
feel and you know what, My my legal first name
is Dustin. I used to not tell people that, but
I'm okay telling people that. But nobody ever called me that,
even my parents. My parents named me Dustin, but I
have always called me Dusty. So you know, the question
(06:45):
that I ask is what what's the name? Then it's
the name, the legal thing written down on paper or
is the name the thing your parents have always called you?
And I go for the latter. I think Dusty Sligh
is my birth name, and yeah, I think I'm I'm born.
You don't name a kid Dusty Sleigh and expect him
just to live a normal life. You know, I had
(07:09):
to find my own way. I mean, I was out
here drinking and partying and doing whatever for all my twenties.
And I know everybody says, well, how are you partying
in your twenties? But you know I was probably wilder
than most. There are people wilder than me, for sure,
But you know, I think I was wilder than the
average person. But I had a good time, and in
the end, I was like, all right, I did it.
(07:30):
Now let's move on. Now a new.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Chapter, new chapter, indeed, and he's coming to Denver and
Colorado Springs this week on Dusty Slay joining us. Dusty,
congratulations on thirteen years of sobriety. My fiance Kelsey is
ten years sober. It has changed her life, would you say?
And you kind of mentioned this touchdown, but I want
to dig a little deeper. Was that the turning point
for you not only in your life but in your
(07:53):
comedy that led to your arrival on the big stage,
big breaks happening for you, those two things coincide or
what was that timeline.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Like for you? I would say one hundred percent, because
you know, people had a friend who used to make
a joke. He would say, I quit drinking, I lost
thirty pounds and all my friends, And I think there
is something to that, right, I did lose weight when
I quit drinking. And I also I wouldn't say I
(08:22):
lost friends, But you know, when you were drinking, I
was living in Charleston, South Carolina. It's just a kind
of a party city. It's on the beach, and it's
just just fun to drink. It's fun to day drink there.
So you just start to build a lifestyle where all
your friends are just hanging out in this bar, and
you go there and join your friends. And then when
(08:43):
you quit drinking, those people they don't stop being your friends,
but they just continue living their lives and you've gotten
off that. Now you're no longer in that, so as
a byproduct, you're not hanging out. So I found myself
with just all this free time. I was like, man,
I used to you know, I used to spend all
my time in this bar laughing and hang on my friends.
(09:06):
Now I have so much free time. So I started
writing jokes. I started and when I would perform instead
of drinking while I was at the open mic, I
remembered the jokes that I told that night, and I
got more organized, and my whole life just came together
in a much better way, and I was like focused down.
A lot of people started to not like me because
(09:27):
I was a bit of a wreck as a drinker,
and I think they liked me being a wreck. They
liked being a wreck around me and me being a wreck.
And now that I'm have it together, I think just
my existence felt judgmental to them. But you know, came
out on the other side and I feel good about it.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Get your tickets dussyslay dot com Paramount Theater Denver this
Friday night and Pike's Peak Center, Colorado Springs on Saturday night.
I'll to make sure I say this right. Your hometown
Opalika or.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Opalika, Opelikah, you got you nailed.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
It the first time, Okay, always trust your first instinct.
So Dusty kind of a two part question here about
life in Opelaika, Alabama. You now reside in Nashville, Tennessee.
I'm jealous. What a great city to be a part
of Grand o' lopper. You've performed there, et cetera. But
your upbringing, your background, what is the common thread maybe
from your experience growing up to all the places you
(10:21):
go to to perform comedy, whether it's in the Northeast
to New York City for Jimmy Fallon or out here
in Colorado. And then what is maybe the biggest difference
that you noticed as you tour on the road.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Well, I would think the thing, I don't know, this
kind of thing may seem cliche, but I would say
the thing that is the same. It's like people really
are the same, right, It's like like, you know, there's
city people and there's rural people, but like rural people
are all the same. And that's like, that's you know,
that's who I am. I Like. There's a song about
John Anderson called Countryside where he talks about how much
(10:56):
he likes the country, but he's also like, I like
the city too, And that's how I am, right. I
I like the country. I prefer to live in the country,
but I like to go do city things. So I
say all that to say, you know, get out in
the country. I always assumed that only the rednecks were
in Alabama growing up. I thought everything below the Mason
Dixon line was country and everybody was redneck, and above
(11:19):
that was all cities and all crime, and everybody was
being murdered. And then I started to travel the whole
country in a car and I'm like, oh, it's all
Alabama out here. The whole country is Alabama outside of
the cities, you know, And then all the cities are
you know, you know, they're different, but you know, the
(11:40):
people are the same. They're like, we're city people. I
don't know if that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh, it makes a lot of sense. And I've been
all over the country.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Too, and the main difference is and I think this
is changing a little bit because of the Internet, but
the main difference is accents. Yeah, and grocery store chains,
you know, because we all have the same you know, Walmart, Target,
Low's Home Depot, but the grocery stores are different, bigley wiggily,
(12:07):
bigley wiggly. In the South, you know, you've got a
HIV out in not a h e b out out
in the West. Yeah. Yeah, Well atv all always makes
me think of an STV. But it's a great grocery store.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Oh backhanded compliment. They're supreme. But Dusty slay our guests.
One more question here, Dusty, so appreciate your time and
so appreciate that you're coming here to Colorado. What can
people expect? Maybe they've seen your Netflix special, maybe they'll
check it out before they come see you, and that's
working Man. What is the biggest difference between working Man
what you're going to be doing on the night shift tour,
and what can people just expect in general when they
(12:48):
come out to see you.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Well, the show, jokes wise, will be completely different from
working Man. I also got another hour on YouTube you
can watch, and my jokes will be completely different from that.
But I like to tell people i go, my show's
relatively clean. I do have some adult jokes. I talk
about some adult stuff, but it's mostly a clean show.
So you can bring your grandmother, you can bring your
(13:10):
aunt out to the show, and they're not going to
be a barrett that you brought them there. You're not
going to be sitting by your grandmother going oh this
is a weird one right now. It's all you know.
But I do you know, probably the dirtiest thing I
do I've been doing it recently is I'm talking about
all the stores and restaurants that are out there now
that all have dirty names. And I don't know why
(13:33):
we're doing this, but I'm like, you know, I want
to take my daughter to a sporting good store, and
I'm like, what a weird name this place has? You know,
I don't even want to say it because we're on
the radio, But so my joke seems dirty. But all
I'm doing is telling you the names of these places
and so. But you know, I just I just try
(13:56):
to have fun. I don't do any you know I got.
I got my own political believe I got my own
religious beliefs, but I don't talk about them in my
stand up show. I just give you a fun show
where no matter your political beliefs or your religious beliefs
or anything, you're just gonna have fun. You're not going
to think about any of that stuff during my show.
And you know, it's a great time. We just it's
(14:17):
just relaxed. I heard I read a comment the other
day they said the longer I watched this guy, the
funnier he gets. And that is what I think happens
with my show. Sometimes at the beginning of the show,
I think people think. I think people are a little
unsure about what I'm doing because I fidget around a lot,
and you know, I say, you know what I mean
(14:37):
a bunch, But you know, you get into a rhythm
and you're and then the show I do. Sometimes I'll
do an hour and twenty minutes and people are laughing
the whole time.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
So if you're looking to do the same, Great times
at Great Venues Paramount Theater in Denver. That's Friday this Friday,
seven pm, May second, and then on Saturday the very
next night at Pike's Peak Center in Colorado Springs, also
a seven pm show. Tickets available at dustyslay dot com.

because I've got the tickets. They're waiting right now on
the Kronkey app, and I'm a gen xer, so I
can figure it out. But it takes me some time,
so I'm not like a boomer where I can't figure
(16:13):
it out and I just get frustrated. I do get frustrated,
but then I go through and I'm like, work it
through the mechanisms and I kind of ham hand my
way through it. That's a gen xer, millennial or younger
they like like Zach, I could hand them the phone.
Get there you go, Rye. I'll be dang it anyway.
So there's the tickets and all you got to do.
That information I just gave you, plus is a test

years has Dusty Slave been sober? Now there'd be a
variance there. Whoever's closest will be qualified to win. So
how many years has Dusty Slave been sober? A non drinker,
a teetotaler, if you will. And then the other question
(16:57):
if you don't know that one, I wasn't listening, Rye, Okay,
you're being honest. I appreciate that. What is Dusty Slay's
hometown name Dusty Slay's hometown either one of those two?

address where I can send things, and you'll be registered
to win. Now, make sure you can go and use
the Dikets seven pm Friday night, Paramount Theater. Now, I'll
have this conversation with the winners if we get to
that point. You and I, But I believe parking is
(17:38):
included in this. I have some details along those lines
as well, and that's a nice little added feature in
bonus so five seven seven three nine, Dusty Sleigh, how
many years has he been sober? And or the name
of his hometown. If you get both, you're automatically going
to win first one in, first one served. Send those
along five seven seven three nine. If you would please
(17:59):
thank you for that this text as we go to
break and we'll have more Trump's hot takes on the
other side, Ryan, why do you insist we have to
have that conversation. Why can't we just be friends with
our neighbors without knowing where they stand politically? It's really
nobody's business. I remember when it used to be rude
to ask somebody how old they were and who they
(18:20):
voted for, etc. You're right. I think Abraham Lincoln had
a quote along those lines about you know, your vote
is your own personal, private business. I subscribe to that too.
In fact, there are many situations social scenarios texture I
agree with you one hundred percent where I might know
the people are liberal and I don't bring it up.
I don't troll people. I don't go home to Thanks
Damie and Christmas where every one of my other family
(18:40):
members is left of center, and I don't start those conversations.
I don't look to have those confrontations. I don't want
that argument. Dan was talking about that, I think last holiday,
and you know, once Trump won, that was my victory.
I didn't need to spike the football. So I'm not
going to bring it up. But ten times out of
ten when I'm talking Pauls with like a family member
(19:01):
or friend, they have brought it up. So I agree
with your point and your promise a time out. We're
back after this on Ryan Schuling Life.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
This is Denver's Toss Station with Michael Brown in the
morning and Dan Kaplis in the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Six thirty Khow Denver now impact traffic? This report is
sponsored by Discovered.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Oh was it good? Starting out the drive? No major problem.
There's a minor crash westbound seventy Havana that activity on
the shoulder. But if it's slow down that drive out
of Urrah, he's seventy getting heavier boat directions both speeds
say twenty five. She had interrted downtown at northbound Drive
already about fifteen minutes from University of tolfax wat to
the highways in good shape. You have some heavy traffic
in Littleton backed up. That's Santa fe at bowls with traffic.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Student feeling.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Guess what discovers accepted at ninety nine percent of place
is to take credit cards nationwide. You heard right, ninety
nine percent. If you don't think so, maybe it's time
to face facts. You're stuck in the past. Based on
the February twenty twenty four Nielsen Report. Learn more at
discover dot com.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Slash credit card A pragmatic, practical approach with priorities based
in principle. Those are my four p's. I try to
live by them because I like to win and I
seek winning at every turn. Well, you want to win
when it comes to your retirement planning as well your
wealth building your portfolio. How do you get from here
(20:26):
to there from A to Z? Well you need that
step B along the line. You can't go right from
A to Z. You don't want to do that. You
have to put some thought, effort, focus, research into this.
But you can't do it all yourself either. So I
go from my four piece to trajan wealths five piece.
They add one more and it just says follows. Proper
(20:48):
planning prevents poor performance, and that is the bedrock principle
upon which Trajan Wealth bases their services for you. The
five pe can be applied to most areas of your life,
but it's especially true for your finances. Now we know
all too well. You can't control what's happening with the
(21:10):
stock market. We're watching it. It's gonna go up, it's
gonna go down long term. Do you believe in the
Trump tariffs? Are you mad?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Set that emotion aside. Set the emotion aside. You can't
control what's happening with the stock mart. Can't worry about
what you can't control, but you can plan for it,
and you can control how you plan for it by
visiting the folks at Trajan Wealth. And they've been helping
clients with those five p's I mentioned for years. Trajan
Wealth your local trusted financial fiduciary, and you can call
(21:40):
them today. They have three locations right here in the
Denver Metro Broomfield, Loveland, Greenwood Village. It's the Denver Tech Center.

number once again, seven to two oh four zero five
thirty three hundred for Trajan Wealth or online Trajanwealth dot

(22:02):
a proud sponsor of Ryan Schuling Live and we're happy
to have them. Part three of four installments of Trump's
Hot takes here on Ryan Shuling Live. The autopen point
was an important one too. The media just lacks any
(22:23):
intellectual curiosity, journalistic gumption when it comes to such egregious
matters like that one. They just choose not to report it.
They choose to carry the water, you know. Alex Thompson
of Axios his acidine comment at the dinner over the weekend,
the White House Correspondence dinner was just breathtaking in its
(22:46):
lack of self awareness. And we'll get to that in
a moment. Oh, we have breaking news. I've been told
by the the man Zach what he got for us
breaking news.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
The Rockies have avoided the worst to thirty games start,
or tying the worst thirty games start in MLB history,
with a roaring two to one victory over the Atlanta Braves.
They are now five and twenty five.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, when you're four and twenty five and you win
two to one, that is a roaring victory. And we
will take it. Thank you, Zach for that bit of
good news.
Speaker 6 (23:17):
Careful going downtown today. I'm sure the celebrations are gonna
be wild.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
The post game extravaganza, it's gotta be a lot greasing
up the light poles. Yeah, oh yeah, like Philadelphia after
the Eagles won the Super Bowl. Very comparable. But you
gotta feel good. Where my mind immediately goes here is
for Jack and Jerry in the booth and Jesse. Those
are three j's, by the way. Yeah, you're calling these
games night after night, day after day. You're traveling with
(23:44):
the team, and it's lost after loss, and you get
this win, and I gotta tell you, it feels good,
so good for the Rockies. They're not gonna win the
World Series anytime soon, but at least for today, they're winners.
That's all that matters. I got this. I got some
texts here and they're from like to my direct phone.
I asked John Fabricatory, former Ice Field office director, about
(24:08):
this tattoo. And what the photo is is Kilmar Abrado
Garcia his left hand and on his knuckles, so between
you know, the actual knuckle that's the basted knuckle of
your hand and the middle knuckle on your hand, that
length of the finger where you make a fist and
you show the fist, that's where it is. And there's
(24:28):
a marijuana leaf. There's a smile with two x's, there's
a cross, there's a skull. Okay, I don't think that
was just for fun, just for funzies. Oh my god,
let's go get matching tattoos like Zach Girl's. That's how
Zach's girlfriend sounds in my mind. I'm just kidding. Does
she sound like that? Though? No, No, stay away from
(24:49):
the valley girl thing. I'm proud of his Zach well,
but you know what I mean where you're covin, I'm
not offended, don't worry, and I don't think. I don't
think Kilmar was al giddy and giggly or drunk or
whatever that led to the tattoo decision. Okay, but what
happens Terry Moran is partially right, and I think Donald
(25:12):
Trump's partially right. And I tried to go to the
arbiter of all of this in John fabricatory, because in
this photo it has M and S and one and
three above those images I described, but they're typed on
there they're kind of photoshopped on there. Terry Moran's not
wrong about that. However, the underlying context and the truth
(25:33):
of the matter is what do those signs mean? And
this is the response I got from Johnny Fabbs. I
hope someone explained it to him. If they didn't, they
fed up about the printed letters. It doesn't literally go hey,
I'm as thirteen, that's me. No, they are going to
be a little bit more cloak and dagger about it
(25:54):
because they use cloaks and daggers to commandeer apartment complexes
in Aurora, as Cyndi and Ed Remember will tell you.
But that is only a feature of Danielle Jerwinski's imagination.
According to Jared Paulis for which Kyle Clark gladly carried
the water. And there's my criticism of Comrade Kyle for
the day, because that was that was bad, That was
horrible lack of journalism. Cindy Ramiro guess what. She went
(26:19):
to Kyle Clark first. She had a breaking story. This
stuff was right on the cutting edge of what you
would want, you know, if you were a journalist looking
to report the truth and break a stort. He ignored her,
He ignored her. He did not respond to her. And
you know how I know that. One, Cindy said it.
She's a great person, she's a truth teller. She wouldn't
(26:41):
lie about that. She told me that's what happened. And two,
here's the good one. Kyle Clark was all pontificating on
X as he has wont to do about this whole situation,
trying to kind of, you know, do the shell game.
I didn't actually say it wasn't happening. It was a
two whitch responded not once, not twice, but at least
(27:02):
three times. Kyle, will you address the fact that Cindy
Romero emailed you about this story and you said nothing.
You did not respond to her. He never refuted that,
He never answered that, he never denied it, he never
admitted it. He was there, and I know he saw it.
I know he sees the things I post because in
(27:24):
one response at one time, Kyle offered the following, he
said to me, thanks, comrade, because I was praising his
performance as a moderator for a debate, and he did
a good job. That's the thing I'm willing to, you know,
call it like it is. And if he does a
good job, that's fine, but he doesn't. There's so many
instances where he is just obviously taking a partisan position
(27:50):
on an issue like the furries or transing the kids,
et cetera. And he'll really go after conservative moms out there.
Oh look out, you are number one on his target list,
especially female conservative Republicans like Heidi Ganaal, like Lauren Bobert.
You go down the list. There are many more, and
(28:12):
he's got a weird fixation on those folks. Talk to
Heidi about it sometimes, I have talk to Lauren about it.
Sometimes I have. It's weird, it's creepy. It's kind of creepy. Anyway,
Faboratory offers the following, Yes, yes, the symbols are indicative
of hidden messaging. That's a shocker, he continues, Just like
(28:33):
the lips tattoo on some gang members is indicative of
the number thirteen. So and it gives me a tattoo handbook,
which would be handy since I have exactly zero tattoos
myself and plan on getting none. Okay, you're the question, Well, Ryan,
what if you had a tattoo? What would you get?
The only tattoo I would ever entertain, likely in my
mind that I might get I won't get it. But
(28:55):
if I did, if I was like gun to mind,
you gotta get a tattoo, would be the old English
the Detroit Tiger's logo, because that's representative of something that
means something to me. Home anyway, side note trivial detail.
And he sends me this tattoo handbook and he says,
this is a very good guide from Canada, which marks
(29:16):
the very first time something useful for Canada it's ever
been submitted to the show. I'm joking, but maybe that
might be true. And uh, well, and on this text
that I got from Sheriff Steve Raams from earlier in
the program, and he prefaces it with me doing the
quote low paid work at my house while I listen. Well,
thanks for listening, sheriff. First of all. Secondly, yeah, it's
(29:37):
that work that no American wants to do. It's beneath us.
We need the help to come across the border, not
speak English, be paid servants wages and just be fine
with it. No, Sheriff Steve Raimsweld County doing the work
for himself, mowing the law. And you could see the
photo right here if you were Zach. He saw it
right there, mowing the lawn. Nobody's doing it for him.
(30:00):
There's got to be a neighbor kid. You're the sheriff.
Your neighbor kid comes cruising by. You know, maybe he
doesn't do anything wrong, but you make him think maybe
he did, and you're like, oh, excuse me, son, Sheriff.
Fraeme's here as well, Sorry, Sheriff, did I do something wrong?
Well tell me what I'm gonna do. Gonna cut your break.
I'm not gonna charge you this time, but you got
(30:20):
amway Alon. I see. That's why I'm not the sheriff,
because I would totally use an abuse that privilege as
often as possible. And Sheriff Remes is a man of
character and integrity serving out his term and unfortunately he'll
be retiring, but that means more of him. I think.
On this program and guest hosting for Dan, one can hope,
(30:43):
one can dream a time I were back. Guess what
one more installment? I got you?
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Four?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
The Fab four of Trump's hot takes. In his sit
down interview with Terry Moran also known as Moron ABC News,
we close out Ryan Schuling live after these words, Oh
my goodness, can I see you laughing over there. Did
you watch this interview? This is fascinating, the whole thing.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
The clip earlier, and yeah, it's it's very entertaining. But obviously,
I think all of our listeners know if you listen
to our broadcast, we have ABC News. Yeah, unfortunately as
our national feed, and I get many people generally during
Martino that either call and complain about it, not necessarily
(31:35):
about a problem, but we'res the troubleshooter, so we should
be able to shoot that trouble out.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
That's right. And uh, and.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
I'm just saying some of the complaints I get are like,
I just turn it down.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
That's what I do. I have to turn the volume down.
I just turn it back up, briefly explain why it
is the way that it is. And I don't like
it any more than our listeners do. But we have
the Fox News for you have two affiliations, two agreements contractually,
and we dedicate our Fox News feed for freedom, and
that fits in with the programming over there, that's more
than national stuff like Hannity on the local programming here. Basically,
(32:12):
we just got stuck with ABC News because that was
what was left by default.
Speaker 7 (32:16):
Well, KOA also gets Fox that one.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
See. That does make sense to me. I know Koa
is way more live than we are. Let's just call
it what it is. Yeah, so they should get ABC News.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
A hundred percent agree with you, Yeah, one hundred percent agreement.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
That Marty complains that Fox News is over there. Oh gosh,
and give him Abc. What are we doing here, Kelly?
I have no idea. Do you want me to go
in you Brendan and h Why don't know? You gotta
go away to Branda and Jojo? That might be a
tepper call. I think so, I think so. I think
you have a lot of about that. Well, he's got
to have sign off on it. Were inside baseball here,
(32:49):
you and me? All right, all right, work on it.
Please thank you our winners before we go off the air.
I want to make sure we announce these. So we
got one winner for sure, Perry King, You're going to
see Dusty Slay Friday night, Paramount Theater. Congratulations, enjoy and
the correct answer and how many years sober Dusty has
been correct answers? Thirteen? He nailed it, So, Perry, you're
(33:12):
going now. The other one's a little trickier. Jason Cedar
would have won, but he withdrew from the running because
he's got to go pick somebody up at the airport,
I think is what he said, taking his lady to
the airport Friday morning. And you don't have any friends, Jason.
I'm your friend, We are your friends. Kelly's your friend,
Zach's your friend. But I'm waiting on a return text
(33:32):
from Eric Manning. He the Alabama native Opelaika, that was
the hometown. Eric, you're a winner, but I got to
hear from you because he would be great. Well I
know that. And if Eric is unable to serve for
any reason, doesn't want to go, can't go, then we'll
have Andrew Dole will be an alternative winner. So Andrew,
(33:53):
stay tuned for that. I'm waiting on Eric. I hate
to do this to you, but we're out of time.
That's it for me from here for now. I'll talk
to you tomorrow. And Ryan Schuling l Uh
