Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today Josh Ennis Show on one oh six point seven
w LLZ Detroit's Wheels.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
All right, welcome in six oh three Josh Innis Show.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
It is Josh and James this morning.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Hi James, how are you hi? I can't believe the
weekend's over already? It's like two days. It's not enough recover.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
That's a great observation, that is, and you're not wrong.
Oh yeah, yeah, weekend is only two days.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, we see. I'm one of those people.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
Now.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Granted, I don't do a real job, so I don't
know if I'm fair in this because our job may
not be impacted one way or the other. But I'm
one of those people that's have the belief that I'd
rather work a little bit longer on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and then have Friday, Saturday, Sunday right there with you.
But again, we don't do a real job, Like what's
gonna happen? Am I gonna do a six.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Hour radio show for four days and then not work
on Friday like we would probably have.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
To work on a Fridayguardless you we're like people who
do you know, important jobs like the cops, firefighters.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Just like when COVID hit and I got like the
letter from the governor that gave me access to supplies.
If they got if there was like a blockade, well hell,
then you are legit. Oh gretch, oh Gredge sent you
a h Well, I think technically somebody emailed the station
manager and then he's your rocks about one thousand copies
of that album about that gave it to everybody to
put in the glovebox in case of stuff really hitting

(01:26):
the fan. That's something you know that's terrified me. You
he gretched two very powerful people in this here, this
here area. I was like, I'm not an avenger here.
I'm just here to do what hoole jokes in the morning.
You know, I don't know that I need a access
to get through a blockade. But as it.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Turns out, you did have the access to turn to
go to the blockade.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
I sure did. Look at you.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
That's power. Now there's this power quite like a blockade.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
And yeah, James, it's a letter from the governor right here,
like sir, you got piece of paper. Community. It's great.
They said it's just been revoked, but it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
It didn't get revoked because they're not gonna, you know,
revoke what Gretchen's put out there.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Anyway, we have a lot to get into today.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
We do have your opportunity to get into the Toolbox
party that's coming up at eight twenty five. For whatever reason,
the air conditioning the air is not working in any
of the studios today. So it's nine thousand degrees in here,
and we have the door open, but.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
We closed it.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Now I'm going to assume that the Mojo crew is
going to leave their door open. I would assume that's
why I shed ours, not because they'd be bothering us,
but because we'd be bothering them. And Mojo gets a
little temperamental about about noises that I don't hear, but
somehow he hears, and he'll get very like, ah, what
was that noise? So the last thing I want to
do is be the guy that's pissing him off because

(02:51):
I'm over here making wacky commentaries on this station.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
You get that megaphone, I don't know. Next thing, you know,
you got Mojo Bob Knet the door. Yeah, So I'm
not gonna do that.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
So I will sacrifice sweating my balls off for the
morning until they fix this, which I don't know that
they ever will, but it is hot. When I got
in here today was eighty seven degrees in this little room,
and every little room is also eighty seven degrees went
to little ovens in your So that's what we're dealing
with right now. Anyway, you've got your own issues.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I'm well aware. All right, Welcome in everybody.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
It is Monday, and we are gonna get your rocked
and loaded. Last night I saw that Brett Michaels is
a big Pittsburgh Steelers guy. He's from Western Pennsylvania. He's
a yenser as it were. He was at the Steelers
game and he loves the Steelers, and I thought, well,
I'd like to hear some sort of poison tune that
we don't hear all the time. So not like, you know,
basically nothing but a good time. That's all we ever hear.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
How about on Skinny.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
The Josh Show spots Alright.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
Take a look at what's going on in the world
of sports. Although without the Lions playing yesterday, it felt
kind of empty.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Oh, very very empty. Yeah, very empty weekend.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, it wasn't a very enjoyable experience. I mean, there
was football and that was good, but other than that, like,
what was the point most of the games, I'd say
the vast majority of the games were terrible.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yesterday, I'm trying to think.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
I guess the Jets rallying against the Bengals was good.
But other than that, there weren't a lot of good
football games. There were a lot of blowouts, so that
part sucked. But the Lions will play football again at
some point, and that is that is a blessing. Yes,
it's not like the franchise went away. It's just a
day off. They had gone. They had a day off.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
They're gone.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Who do we loove for now? So I know they'll
be back. Oh, that's good. The Pistons did play yesterday
and they won one nineteen to one thirteen, so they
are now two and one. They beat the Celtics, who
are zero and three. Are the Celtics. That's what happens
when your best player Jason and Tatum is out for
the year.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
That'll happen.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Those are the kind of things that happened when one
of the guys that's an MVP level player doesn't play.
The Pistons end up winning that one. Though one nineteen
to one thirteen was the final of that one. As predicted,
the game was not very competitive between State and Michigan
on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
It just wasn't really that interesting.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Again, it's not a great weekend for sports to although
there was the epic rally over the weekend with the
Red Wings. The Red Wings had some fun this weekend.
Other than that over they're down four nothing. I think
they were done four nothing to Saint Louis and rallied
and beat Saint.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Lu Oh there we go. Wait to go boys.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
Other than that, it was kind of like, eh, just
kind of a man we It's so wild to think
how may it was for this Michigan Michigan State game,
which is every year the biggest thing. I think it's
because Michigan State people hate their coach and Michigan State stinks.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
I just don't think there was any Jews for it.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
And Michigan's not particular good either, Like they're okay, but
they're not very good. State stinks, State wants to fire
the coach. It's just kind of a bloss situation. That's
what we came all around, just that there's no hype
for it. There was no buzz, there was no juice,
no juice for it.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
All I saw on social media with everybody's saying how
much the game sucked and how much both teams sucked.
That I saw it on for both teams and the
game itself. So I'm like, well, I'm glad I didn't
tune in.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Well they went wrong. They weren't wrong on that it
did suck, and they do. Look, I don't think that
Michigan sucks. I think Michigan's okay, but Michigan doesn't suck.
I think obviously Michigan State sucks. The Spartans are terrible,
and they may fire their coach, and the way things
are going, I wouldn't be shocked because every coach is
getting fired in college football, no matter how much the

(06:47):
schools have to pay to get rid of you.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
They are firing people.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
We fired everybody like Brian Kelly late last night, I
say late last night last night, seven o'clockish, whatever it was,
eight o'clockish. We find out that Brian, who is going
to be paid fifty million dollars to not.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Coach, wow, got fired. Gotta get a contract like that,
I know. And then another one was who's the other one?
The other day? Oh it was what's his name? James?

Speaker 3 (07:15):
Franklin at Penn State. He's getting paid fifty million dollars
to not coach. So people just getting fired everywhere. So
if I were a homeboy at Michigan State, I'd be
a little bit concerned because he's genuinely terrible at his
job there and he may not last very much longer.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
So there you go. That is sports, and we got
more rock coming up on wheels.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
So Josh in his show one O six point seven.

there's a still chainsaw if you can hear it in
the background there, what else is that big screen TV.
I didn't know, did I didn't notice it's still Did
somebody walk away with it? Wouldn't that be something?

Speaker 3 (09:42):
Oh my god, if someone bolted with our big screen TV.
But as far as I can tell, it's still there.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Okay, let the track them down like Lee Neeson in
those movies.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Taken because somebody took our TV, not our daughter, our TV.
I have a particular set of skills, and that's to
find the missing team. I don't know it's the TV still,
there's well to see, but it's going to go to somebody.
Somebody's gonna win that TV at the Toolbox.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Party vehicle to get that sucker home a flatbed truck.
It's not gonna fit in your car. No that' that'd
be a sight. That'd be excited it get trying to
ship it in their MASDA with.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
The hatchback look, it'd be funny. Oh I watch it.
I'd be tickled by it. But I don't think that's
going to happen though. But anyway, Toolbox Party, your first
chance to get in coming up at eight twenty five.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Today, and boy, November eighth is right around the court.
It is, man, it's already damn near November, so Friday
will be the first.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
YEP, so that we're all we're within two weeks. We're
within two weeks away from the Toolbox party and you're
gonna want.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
To be a part of it. And there you have it.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
All right, how about Lincoln Park. Now, let's break in
the habit. We are just Detroit's wheels. So I know
that this is like an unpopular take and all, but
that song is considered one of the greatest songs ever, right, Like,
oh my god, Stairway to.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Heaven's like the greatest classic rock song ever.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
I don't get it. It's just one of those things
that I don't really understand. How do you feel? I
want your thoughts to tell me your thoughts on Stairway
to Heaven feel.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I feel it's a bit overrated as well. I mean,
I get I don't know what it's. It's a led Zeppelin,
so he's got that that appeal to everybody. But for me,
Stairway to Heaven is out there.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
See, I agree, Like there's a lot more Led Zeppelin
that I enjoy more than like an eight minute song
that's boring. Yeah, Like I just think that particular song
is boy led Zepplin's got a billion good tunes. Yeah,
that's just one that I'm like, Yeah, I think it
was a great joke in Wayne's World No Stairway Tonight.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
But other than that, it's just it's just an okay song.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
I know.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
It's just one of those songs that when I think
about them, I think, Okay, that song's overrated. And I'm
sure other people have other examples of songs they think
are overrated. Now, you have to be highly rated to
be overrated. That's the beauty of it, right, Like you
have to have a bunch of people that think this
song is really good for you to be able to.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
To say it's overrated.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Like nobody's gonna say, you know, hit Me with your
Best Shot is overrated because nobody considers hit Me with
Your Best Shot to be one of the all time
greatest songs of all time. Right, So, and I just
repeated I was very repetitive there when I said the
all time greatest songs of all time. So, but point
being is, you have to be considered great to be overrated,
is all. So it's obviously considered great by many people.

(12:38):
I just think it's an overrated song. Yeah, I'm with you.
That is all all right if you want to get
in eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh six
seven eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh six seven.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
I'm kind of distracted.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
This morning because it's eighty five degrees in the studio here,
and I'm fidgeting with these cameras. I'm fulling around with
these cameras because Casey is obsessed with us having cameras.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
You gotta get on TikTok. We gotta get on We
gotta get on TikTok.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
And then what's gonna happen here is if we don't
post a video, what's gonna happen is Casey's gonna come
in and he's got like two things he focuses on,
like TikTok and videos. Like in his mind, that's what's
gonna take us from like nine thousandth place to number one,
it is we gotta have videos.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Well, hey man, you're the one who come in here
snapping that belt again. That's true, But then what ends
up happening. That's the last thing I want. The last
thing I want is you know, oh no, here he comes,
he's got his belt.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
He just took his belt off. But he's like well,
the ticket's got videos, where are your videos? So now
I'm over here out of my depth. I'm trying to
figure out these cameras and everything in the studio. I'm
way out of my depth trying to figure this out.
Mojo's got seventeen people that work on this kind of stuff, right,
and I get it. Mojo's awesome or whatever. I'm not
knocking that. What I'm saying is, I'm like, add over

(13:50):
here because I'm trying to focus on why these cameras
aren't working, and it's taking away my attention from the
radio show. And then I'm hot as hell because it's
in ninety five degrees in the street. My every part
of my body is sweating. I picked a bad day
to wear sweats, Yes you did, Like every day I
wear shorts, but today I'm like, I literally rolled out
of bed and I am in my pajamas. I said,

(14:10):
screw this, I'm going to work in my pajamas. I
picked a horrible day to do this because it's eighty
six degrees in the studio. There's no sign that it's
gonna get any cooler in here. I got sweat just
pouring down the inside of my sweats. Into my my
bee hole and everywhere. It's terrible. And my main focus
is to get these damn videos going that.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
No one's gonna watch.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
So Casey can go, Man, we got man. We're just
like the ticket now, Man, that's great, So get someone
that knows how to work the damn cameras. It's distracted.
I am distracted.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Now. The beauty of it is like they sent in
a ticket for stuff that was broken, and then they
can send a response everything's working fine, and there's like
a little screenshot and when they checked the cameras at
eleven fift PM.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Yes, so I'm glad it's working fine. When there's not
one soul in our building.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Maybe check on that when there's people here that can
push the buttons and we can make sure it actually
works correct.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
But anyway, I know you've got your own problems. So
is it the National Swamp Pass Day? It should be.
I think there should be.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
It's National Swamp Past Day. So AnyWho, you're.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Probably I'm probably gonna be in a ticked off mood
to dam just letting you know I love you, guys.
It's not you. It's this building, which is nine billion degrees.
And then what's going to happen is all these people
to get here at like nine are going to roll
and none of them have to be in these rooms.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
So they'll be like, hey, guys, how is your weekend?

Speaker 3 (15:27):
And hey guys, hey guys going to the Mojo party
and we're sitting over here in a sauna. We are
in hell. This is hell we are in right now.
But you've got your own issues, so I'm sure that
it could be worse.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
We can take care of blowing on each other. That
sounds sexy. I think I'm down. You know what I'm in.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Now.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
I'm turned on nose. Puts a belt down. You're not invited.
It's not that kind of blowing party. This is not
that kind of party. Your horn dog, get out of here.

Speaker 8 (16:00):
All right.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
It's the Josh Ennis Show. How are you friends? We've
got a living color for you now, So Joshennis Show,
and we are Detroit's wheels.

Speaker 9 (16:10):
Only we have to.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Casey's bell. All right, The Joshennis Show. So here's what
we got coming up. We will get you into the
Toolbox party. That's an eight twenty five nine five, so
you still have a ways to go on that. But
I do have a story about a club that was
started at the Royal Oak High School. That's that's got protested.

(16:34):
I don't even know that high school kids protested, but
apparently there's a club. Well, I'll tell you this. This
club that was started by like these fans of this
Charlie Kirk, you know, the guy that got shot. So
there's like a group I guess of what they would be,
like young Republicans or something like that, like Alex P.
Keaton types that started a club there at Royal Oak
High School. And now they've got people protesting the fact

(16:56):
that there's this club. My school is a lot different
than it was when I was in it. We'll get
into it. We'll talk about this. We got sports coming up.
We got a lot to get into. It's The Josh
Ennis Show.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Stay there, get or not.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
This is the the Detroit An iHeartRadio station. Make us
the number one preset on your car radio and on
the free new and improved Iheard Radio.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
App Listen for all your music, radio end podcasts, scream
never sounded so good.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
The Josh Ennis Show on one oh six point SEVENZ
Detroit's wheels The Josh Ennis Show.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Sports Alright, So yesterday was a football day without the Lions.
And not only was it a football day without the Lions,
it was a football day really without any good football games.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
With a said football day, it was not good.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
There was maybe one game maybe I think we talked
about it earlier, but the Jets rallied and I think
the only reason they were able to rally and win
their game against the Bengals, hey because the Bengals find
a way to lose games because I hate their coach.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
I despise the Bengals coach.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
But also because one of their all time great players,
Nick Mangold, had died the day before, and I think
maybe they just had his powers because they were down
huge were the Jets, and then they rallied to beat Cincinnati.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
That is the Jets' first win of the year.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
You look at some of the scores though around the
NFL yesterday, You've got thirty to sixteen, thirty four to ten,
forty to nine, twenty six to fifteen, thirty eight to
twenty thirty two to thirteen, twenty three to three, thirty
eight to fourteen forty four to twenty four, thirty five
to twenty five. I could make an argument that this

(18:37):
was the worst day of football in the history of football.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
Wow. Wow.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
I'm willing to make that argument with you right now
that there has never been a worst day overall. I
need someone that, I need some statisticians, somebody with like
the Elias Sports Bureau or something, to let me know
if there's ever been a day in NFL history with
more double digit blowout games. Do you know how many
games were then ten points were under ten points. I'm

(19:02):
fairly certain the correct answer is one, just one. I
think one football game was separated by less than ten
points yesterday, if I'm doing the calculations correct, the only
one was thirty nine thirty eight Jets beating Cincinnati. Outside
of that, every game was at least at ten points.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Of those are twenty five, twenty three or something. You said, No, no,
I don't believe.

Speaker 4 (19:27):
So.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
I think every one of these games was at least ten.
I'm not seeing anything that was single digits outside of
the Jets and Bengals.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
That is wild.

Speaker 3 (19:36):
And not only were these games only within ten like
we're talking thirty one points, we're talking eighteen points, we're
talking nineteen points, we're talking twenty and some of these
games were only made closer by late garbage touchdowns. For instance,
the Colts were up thirty eight to seven, they ended
up winning thirty eight to fourteen.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Denver was up forty eight to two.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
I think they were up forty four to seventeen, and
Dallas got a late touchdown that made it look closer like.
These were hideous football games yesterday, disgusting, hideous, terrible football games.
But the good news is the Lions come back this week. Yeah,
the best team in the NFL, the most fun team
in the NFL to watch, and they will be back
this week. The Pistons are two to one after they

(20:16):
beat Boston one nineteen to one thirteen. How about this,
Jalen Duran a double double, twenty four points, eighteen rebounds,
Kate Cunningham had twenty five eight and three another double double,
Asar Thompson twenty one and twelve rebounds.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
So there you go. And LSU fired their coach Brian Kelly.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
And this is interesting because this guy is going to
get paid fifty million dollars to go away man. He
had signed a ten year deal, he was in the
fourth year of the deal. He's guaranteed like ninety percent
of the deal, and he gets fifty million to not coach.
Now they're working on some sort of agreement with his buyout,
or maybe they pay him less. I don't know, but
it all came to a head on Saturday when they

(20:58):
just got pecker slapped by Texas A and M and
Baton Rouge. Of course LSU is my team. So I
took down my flag last week. I'm putting the flag
back up today.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
You came in with the gear on this man things.
We're back.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
We fired that putts, that shock, that huckster, that cheat.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
That swimdler. He's a fake and a phony, and I
wish I never laid eyes on him. And I'm putting
my flag.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
Backup when I go home too, because we're you back.
We are so back by that flag. That is sports.
So I got to get to this royal Lok high
school story. But also apparently back in nineteen seventy five,
Kiss made a country album, not an album, a song.
Kiss made a country song that they never released.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Okay, but there's a demo of it the Kiss has
put out.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
So if you've ever wanted to know what Kiss sounds
like as a country.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Act, oh, you know, That's what I've been thinking about.
I think so Kiss sound like as a country act.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
Look anything to make money, Gene and Paul would have
done it.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
That's true.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
So what does Kiss sound like singing country music? You
will find out after you hear Welcome to the Jungle
that is by a rock and roll band called guns
n' Roses. Actually, take that back, I was welcome. This
is not guns n' Roses. I repeat, not guns n' Roses.

(22:21):
Green Day is going to be playing at the Alter
Ego Show, the iHeart Alter Ego Show, and that show sold.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Out, by the way.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Oh yeah, the hell of a lineup for that show too,
But like twenty one Pilots is going to be there,
Green Day is going to be there.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
But that show sold the hell out.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
That sold out quick, So people want there's a thirst
for Green Day and twenty one Pilots and others.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
So but anyway, it's the Josh Inness Show.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
We are detros Wheels and back in the mid seventies, Kiss, well,
Kiss did a multitude of different things. Like that's one
thing you got to give Kiss credit for. I guess
is that Kiss was never afraid to reinvent themselves. Like
after they stopped selling record in the early eighties, they
said we're getting rid of the makeup. They got rid
of the makeup and they started making hair metal songs

(23:05):
of the eighties, and they started selling the albums again,
started putting people in the seats again.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
So they've always done that.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
They made a disco track, right, I was made for
Loving You Right, and that was a number one hit
for Kiss. But at one point, this is in the
mid seventies, there's a country song that they tried to
produce called Mistake. Fittingly, I guess called Mistake, and they
released it as part of their new Dress to Kill
box set, which you can buy everywhere.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
If people still buy box sets.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Of things, I have known other than Taylor Swift lunatics
who buy fourteen different albums of each Taylor Swift album.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
But yeah, it's still some of those people out there,
like the ones that are waiting line and record store
day to get that exclusive vinyl. Well, those box sets,
I'm sure.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
If that's what they're into, that's what they're into. But
so the collection is available everywhere. This is called Mistake.
Let's play a little bit of this and see what
it sounds like. When Kiss attempted to go country already,
they just went right with the twang. You know what,
I got a bold take. I think this is gonna

(24:10):
be good. I'm a hot take. I have not listened
to this. I deliberately didn't listen and to this until
we got on the air. I think this isn't gonna
be as bad as you might think. Okay, give me
a prediction. Do you think it's gonna suck. I think
it's gonna suck. But I am not a country music guy.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Well, you are more of a country music guy, so
you might dig it more than what I will see.
And I am.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
I'm a country music guy, not current country so much.
I'm an everything music guy. I got you, but I
did country music, and so this would be in the
mid seventies, so your inspiration would be more twangy type
seventies country. You hear this is gonna be good. I'm
starting it over. I think this is gonna be a
good tune. That they look. They hit you right in
the face with the twang. They didn't come out there
leaving any doubt this is a country tune. I wonder

(24:54):
if they were inspired by the Eagles too, because the
Eagles were like a rock country bass. I wonder if
this will be like a rock type of country song.
I got a prediction that's going to sound eagles ish. Okay,
I'll shut up now.

Speaker 7 (25:18):
When I told I do when out, I didn't, you can.
I had to tell after the first time I had

(25:44):
to tell.

Speaker 9 (25:48):
Put out his Tom Tom.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
No, I don't think that you I think that's pretty good.
I don't think that was bad. Yeah, it's not horrible.
I can probate it. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
See, when I hear Kisses doing a country song, I'm expecting,
like Paul Stanley, y'all want some country tonight, and then
he's gonna come out there and be like I got friends.

Speaker 7 (26:16):
In low places.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Yeah, oh yeah, but I'm picturing him like still with
the makeup on. But it's kind of like overall.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Oh totally because this in the mid seventies, so they
had the makeup on. Like this kind of reminds me
of because remember they didn't do all heavy stuff like
Beth obviously, but then there was like Hard Luck Woman,
which was more of like a kind of an acoustic
guitar sound on hard Luck Woman that kind of reminds
me a little bit of that vibe. But like, I like,
I get that it's a country song, but like, I

(26:46):
kind of dig.

Speaker 7 (26:46):
It that is him.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
When that I do you think they're actually singing backup
or do you think it's all just Paul who they
just later in his voice? Oh?

Speaker 3 (27:16):
No, that's all of him, that's all because uh, you know,
Jean does a lot of the vocals too, like Jean
had a lot of the lead.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
On stuff back then too. So yeah, I can see that.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
I I think that's uh, I think that's good.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
It certainly isn't that. I'll be honest, it's I'm not
a country guy, and it's not It's not.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Horrible, No, I get it's not like what I was anticipating,
which was just kiss saying country type things.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
So you know, that's that's what my answers I was.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
Contry when country wasn't cool, Like that's what I thought
we were gonna get. But instead it's just kind of
a like a cool mid seventies kind of folksy rocky
country rocks, southern rockish kind of sound.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Like I kind of dig it.

Speaker 3 (27:56):
If you want to text, text the word Josh and
your message to five one eight eight one.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
I'm genuinely curious.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
Again, I didn't play the whole song, but I give
you the idea of what the song sounds like. So
that is Kisses previously unreleased country quote unquote country track
that was undressed to kill and now they've got a
box set of dress to Kill out. So if you
want to, I want your feedback on this text the
word Josh and your message to five one eight eight one.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
I dig this too itself.

Speaker 7 (28:23):
After the first time.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
To time, I like it.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
The only person who did a better job of going
country in that era was really the doc of rock.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Country when I was six four to twelve. And let's
go back to the.

Speaker 8 (28:50):
Phones engine country when I was six.

Speaker 10 (28:52):
Yeah, yeah, I haven't heard that one.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
We can do that. Well it Trent today, he's going
out of the wall being bored at working.

Speaker 8 (29:06):
Yeah working, were you working?

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Oh yeah, right, you fixed a little bit of all.

Speaker 8 (29:15):
Can you give me a deal on a good okay?

Speaker 9 (29:18):
Well, really appreciate okay, But about it?

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Why was it that when you called a radio station
in the seventies it made it sound like you were
calling an astronaut that was landing on the moon.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
That was the technology of the day.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
One small step for man, one giant leap for country music.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Kind one radio request. Yeah, So back to day with
vacuum repair shops. Fort of thing you're fixing him or
selling them a little bit of a little bit of good.

Speaker 11 (29:45):
It's a little bit of both.

Speaker 7 (29:46):
Been a little bit of both.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
So if you could very far some Ronnie and millse out,
I'm calling for that Greatest Tits album?

Speaker 2 (29:55):
Or do I have to get that Ronnie Mills out
Greatest Tits album? Man? I just love that your love brother.
But yeah, so kiss win country for one song in
the seventies and Doug survived like two months or whatever
it was of doing country radio. I matter being Doug.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Like he walks into work one day and they're like,
the good news is you're employed. The bad news is
you're playing Tammy Whyett and that song is picking Up
Strangers by Giant Lee, and that's a.

Speaker 10 (30:24):
Good song country one. I was six with Johnny Lee
picking Up Strangers for eighteen. We've got the music of
Tanya Tucker coming up for you, along with the Charlie
Daniels Band. A lot of calls for that group this afternoon.
Otherwise out there light rain and drizzle throughout the rest
of the day.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
Time just sounds like a man whose soul has been
just ripped from his body. My man was playing rock
records like Breakfast with the Beatles type stuff, and.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Then one day he walks in and they're like.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
How do you want to play, Tanya Tucker, He's like,
I don't, but I need a job.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Here's your new wardrobe, here's some assless chap.

Speaker 10 (30:54):
There you go with little or no, it's no accumulation.
Then tonight, however, occasional light rain.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
Imagine that picture we posted the other day, but now
imagine like a ten gallon hat on.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Top of that. Oh wow, boy, I bet Doug looked
like the Marlborough Man, sexy cowboy with snow. Likely we
probably looked like the cowboy from the village people.

Speaker 10 (31:11):
If we're getting boards later on in the evening with
the possibility of one to three inches of accumulation by morning,
with a load to drop down into the lower.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Killing that weather though, weather and Tanya Tucker, Yeah, you bet,
you know somebody those inches, you.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Know's gonna get those three inches, Tanya.

Speaker 10 (31:26):
Tuck money, So watch out for those slippery highways tonight
tomorrow mostly cloudy, windy and cold, with a good chance
of snow flurry throughout the day and high only to
hit near thirty. Right now we have got cloudy skies,
some light rain falling around town in thirty four degrees
in the motor city.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
There you go, So look at how much the weather
report has changed. Yes, now, I was like, hey, sunrise
is at seven fifty nine and it's going to be cloudy.
Hi fifty four? Yeah, and go check your phone.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
I used to get in trouble in Saint Louis because
they had a paid, like a sponsored traffic segment.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
I'm like, no one's coming to me for traffic.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
So what I would do is I'd say, hey, go
check your ways, and then they'd go like, you can't
just say go check your ways.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
It's sponsored.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
I'm like, yeah, but nobody's coming to us for a
traffic report. I'm here to play fog hat and say
offensive things. I'm not here to give you a traffic report.
You should they come up with an offensive traffic report.
Is there any truth to the rumor that Doug hooked
up with Kenny Rogers? Oh my god, I would hook
up with Kenny Rogers back in the day. Look at
that guy, beautiful tan, beautiful gray hair, gray beard, but

(32:27):
tan skin.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
I look if Doug look I could.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
I don't understand how Doug could just resist the charms
of Kenny Rogers. Doug just backstage at like a Kenny
Rogers show. He's been hanging out with Kiss and Bob
Seeger and now he's backstage with his little pass and
he's like, it's the doc and I'm I'm the Count
of Country and from the Count of Country, and I'm
looking for Kenny Rogers.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Is the Josh in his show on one six point
seven double ll Z Detroyce Wheels De Troy Wheels.

Speaker 5 (33:00):
Should get auto law auto accident attorneys visit auto law
dot com.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
That's Otto la dot Com rocks well.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
On six point seven Detroit's Wheels. Josh and his show
Josh and James This morning. Hello friends. Glad you guys
are hanging out with us today. So here's a story.
Headline reads that a creation of a Turning Point USA
club at Royal Oak High School sparks protests. Now, Turning

(33:28):
Point USA is what Charlie Kirk. I don't know if
you founded it or whatever the story was, but Turning
Point USA was Charlie Kirk.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
That was his thing, right, and.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Since he was shot last month, I guess it was
last month since he was shot, You've seen kind of
this kind of movement where more people are talking about
this and wanting to become part of this or whatever.
Now I'm not here to get political on you on
this at all, right, but these are high school dudes
and gals who started this club and now they are
seeing blowback from other kids at school who are protesting

(34:01):
this club. And the only thing I could think about when.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
I saw this story was that high school was nothing
like this when I was in high school.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
When I was in high school, here's what we cared about.
I was on the basketball team. We cared about basketball.
We cared about Friday when the football team was going
to play. We cared about, like, how is it that
I'm sixteen and I've never grabbed a boob? We cared about, Hey,
I'm seventeen and I've never had any booze, but there's
a party going on. I'm here for the bonfire. What
have we done to the youth of America that we've

(34:36):
gotten them to a point where high school, which is
supposed to literally be the greatest time of your life,
it is supposed to be fun and now granted, when
you're in it, it doesn't seem like the most fun because
everything's the biggest deal in the world and you're a
nerd or you're this or whatever. But it's supposed to
be amazing and you're supposed to have no concerns and
you don't know what's going on in the world.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
Like I let me tell you this. When I was in.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
High school, I didn't know anything about politics. I didn't
care anything about politics. All I knew was the jokes
I heard on leto or Letterman. That was the extent
of my political knowledge. When I was sixteen, you said
to understand them, not at all, because I never understood
the jokes either.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Man, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
Like in the heyday of me being in middle school.
In high school, you'd get a lot of Monica Lewinsky jokes,
and you would get Clinton jokes and Bush two jokes,
and like I would watch SNL and you would get
Dana Carvey doing George Bush Senior. Like that was the
extent of my political knowledge. And now I don't have
much more, Like I don't care enough about it to
do that. But like back then, that's all you thought about.

(35:33):
You thought about whether or not you're gonna feel a boob,
whether or not your basketball team is gonna win. What
you're gonna do on Friday the wedding crashers came out
and your buddy hasn't seen it. You're gonna go see
it for the third time. Like that's what high school
was to me. It wasn't hey, let's start an activist
group of freaking high school Like what are we doing
to these high school kids? It's about boobs and how

(35:53):
good you are at GoldenEye?

Speaker 2 (35:54):
That's it. That was it.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
You would get together with your buddies and you would
play GoldenEye. You'd get that in six four out and
you'd play Blitz and GoldenEye and Mario Kart and that's
all it was. Then you get together on a Friday
night and you'd go to the movies. You'd meet up
with your partners go to the movies. If you had
the car, that was a huge deal because all your
buddies needed you to get everywhere the driver. Like what
have we done to the youth of America that at

(36:18):
a high school? We got a group of no offense
nerds starting some Charlie Kirk group, and then a group
of other nerds fighting them over it. Go on and
get laid kids. That would be my advice. Try to
get laid. Wrap it up, but try to get laid.
That's what high school is about. High school is not
being about being enraged about politics. And you know whose

(36:39):
fault it is the adults. The adults have ruined these
kids because they won't let them be kids. Like these
women are crapping these kids out and then like in
five minutes they're like, hey, do you want to be
a boy or a girl? Like, hey, just let them live.
There's an idea.

Speaker 2 (36:56):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
That's what's happening. It's the adult. The adults have gone
out and ruined everything. And it's because they's like they're
trying to mold little political monsters out of these kids
because they want them to be all over social.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
Media and everything. It's absurd. Anyway, So you have kids,
I did you let them pick their genders? I mean,
we'll get if we get to that point. We'll get
to that point. You know when they came out of
your boy, they slapped the baby and they're like, all right,
does he want to be a boy or a girl. Well,
he's got a wee wei, so he's going to be
a boy, that doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
Go ask the high school teachers. It doesn't mean anything.
But like, here's the thing, man, again, this is not
meant to be super political. It's meant to be more
about like high school. When I was in high school,
it was fun and you didn't have any concerns. What
is it that we're doing to the youth that all
they care about is protesting and and Palestine this, and

(37:48):
and and Charlie Kirk this, Like, what are we doing?
Like my dad never had me. I couldn't tell you
who my dad voted for. I couldn't tell you what
his politics were, and I didn't care and I didn't know,
and he didn't care to tell me. But now what
we're doing is we're just ruining kids. And when I
see that story, like I sent that story to Casey
and I'm like, this seems.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Like a good topic.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
He goes, oh, it's two pull out, and then you
know he got his belt out and it was a
hold oh oh, you know, it's like God's too much.
I'm like, no, it's not a political story. It's a
high school story. It's a story about what we've done
to young people and we've taken it from like when
you used to watch movies, Like last time I checked,
American Pie wasn't about what Jim and Stiffler thought of Palestine.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
American Pie was. We're trying to get laid. And that's
what high school is.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
I don't want high school kids worrying about Palestine or
worrying about Charlie Kurk or.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Any of that crab. Just let him go be high
school kids. I guarantee you there's people listening.

Speaker 3 (38:45):
If you went in eight seven, seven, nine, eight, eight,
one oh six seven, whether you were in high school
in the seventies, whether you were in high school in
the eighties, nineties, early two thousands, whenever you were in
high school, that was your main concern. Am I ever
gonna get laid? Am I gonna make the team? Am
I ever gonna alcohol?

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (39:01):
I got to sit at the house and play and
record on the tape deck so I can get that
new cut from the radio. Oh boy, did you see
that that Steve smokes Now? Oh, like that's the kind
of stuff that you cared about.

Speaker 2 (39:14):
Now We're forcing kids into this world of having to
care about big picture adult issues and I hate it.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Go Let high school kids be high school kids. I
don't want a bunch of nerdy Alex p. Keaton's running
around the high schools and then having political wars with
people on high school freaking campuses, and part of it
is because their teachers are dopes too. Anyway, I feel better.
I mean that was cathartic. I told you I would
be enough. I'd be a little salty today because it's
nine hundred degrees in here. I've got sweat under my breasts.

(39:43):
That's the now. I feel bad for women because like,
I've got a line under both of my man bosoms
that are like, it's just a line of sweat. I
got man boob sweat. I got crotch sweat, I got
swamp ass. This is a terrible, terrible day. I have
to go out into the common area and lay on
the ground to cool off.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Oh floor looks nice and cool. It is.

Speaker 3 (40:03):
You should try it, get naked and do it. It'll
change your life. Eight seven seven nine eight eight one
oh six seven?

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Am I wrong here?

Speaker 3 (40:10):
Or like I don't have kids, so the world's a
little bit different for me. But am I wrong? Then
it's like, hey, here's an idea, like stop polluting the
minds of these kids with your crappy politics and let
them focus on getting.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
Laid in high school. Thank you. Let's get to some
phone calls and some texts. Here's Brian Adams.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
One O six point seven Detroit's Wheels Josh in a show.
So there's this Charlie Kirk club at the Royal Oak
High School. They're getting a back and forth with another
group of kids who are protesting this group. This is
not a political conversation. I want to be very clear.
I'm not talking politics with you here. I'm saying the opposite.
I don't understand why we're at a point where you've

(40:47):
got like this point in the world where we treat
high school like it's like it's CNN, like go BID's
high school, Go get laid, you know, like figure out
if you like booze or not, try to you know,
call a girl all a boy whatever it is, like
that's what high school is supposed to be. Like I
hate that the youth and this is why these kids
all have anxiety and stuff now, Like I mean, look,

(41:08):
I feel bad for you because you got young kids
who are going to grow up in this era and
I'm just gonna let you know they're gonna.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
Be screwed up. Oh, I get it. I'm just informing
you right now, James, your kids are I'm there, you know,
one of their primary guardians. Yes, that looks it's going
to be a tough go for these guys.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Well it's like this too, though, Like I'm sure we
were screwed up too, but there was no one on
the internet constantly telling us we were screwed up. We
just kind of swallowed it and went like, I guess
I'm screwed up. But whatever, yolo, you know, we'll figure
it out. Let's see, let's go to the phones here,
Hello wheels, Hey.

Speaker 8 (41:39):
Hi, I wanted to chime in on the political stuff
in the high school.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Yeah, what you got.

Speaker 12 (41:43):
I'm just thinking the biggest issue I think is social media.
I think social media has really kicked this.

Speaker 8 (41:48):
Stuff in the steroids. I mean, I graduated high school.

Speaker 12 (41:51):
Around ninety eight. You said American Pie was like the
big thing, the word by getting laid to.

Speaker 8 (41:55):
Ironically, that was the biggest movie.

Speaker 12 (41:56):
At the time, But we weren't worried about that stuff
because we weren't into with the internet. AOL was just
getting going, and we didn't have social media. I think
social media is what's cranked us up for a lot
of kids because.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
They see all these posts out.

Speaker 12 (42:09):
There and they see all these comments on transitioning this,
that or the other, and that's where they're getting this
information from now.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
And I'm with you too.

Speaker 3 (42:15):
I think what you're starting to see more of is
it's becoming cool because social media hammers you with it
so like you feel like you're obligated to do something politically.
I never felt that way when I was seventeen years old.
You know what, Nobody wanted my thoughts on anything because
I was seventeen years old.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
I'm a kid. No one cares about my thoughts on
those things, you.

Speaker 12 (42:36):
Know, same, It's like we were, like I said, we
were kids again. I graduated in ninety eight. Maybe i'd
watched the evening news. Hey, the election's coming up. This
looks good, that looks bad. I'll vote this way, what
you know, whatever, I'll support this. And I left it
at that. Almost everybody else at.

Speaker 8 (42:48):
That time left it at that. But now with social media,
are you think you're getting inundated? Everybody's getting inundated.

Speaker 12 (42:54):
You don't know which way to look, You don't even
know what's right or wrong.

Speaker 13 (42:56):
Anymore.

Speaker 8 (42:57):
You can't even form an opinion because it's given to you.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
I agree, thank you.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
And that's the weird part about being a kid now
man like kid Used to being a kid meant nobody
care what you had to say about anything because you
were just a doping kid.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
Kids should be seen, not heard, right, no life experience
to really form an opinion on some of the things
that they have opinions on.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
And these kids still don't have any life experience yet
they all have a thousand opinions on things, and it's
like they're being forced to by the teachers and everybody else.
Like I don't like I don't know, I don't like it.
I just I want kids to go be kids. These
are legit kids. These are high schoolers. This isn't college.
Like a lot of times people like to throw the
word kid on everybody that's younger than them, like, well
those college kids, well, you're eighteen, you can go fight

(43:34):
in a war, even smoke cigarettes. You're an adult when
you're eighteen. Okay, so I don't consider college people kids.
But when you're fifteen years old, you're a kid, and
you're being molded by the stuff that's.

Speaker 2 (43:44):
Around you, being radicalized by the parents.

Speaker 3 (43:47):
There they could be very well could be, and there's
also pressure from their peers.

Speaker 2 (43:51):
So I don't know, man, I just I want kids.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
This is Uncle Josh giving you some like a Nichols
worth of free advice here. Focus on getting laid. That's
what you should be focused on in high school, not
even your grades. You know why, because your grades don't
even matter. Another lesson from Uncle Josh. Grades don't really matter, Like,
get decent enough ones to graduate. And if you want
to go to college, go to college. But like, listen,
that college ain't going to do nothing for you anyway.

(44:16):
No offense to college. It probably unless you're going to
be a doctor. And if we're being honest here, Jimmy,
you can go to WebMD and diagnose people. Oh yeah, absolutely,
I do it all the time. I had this issue
that was causing me to have terrible headaches and I
couldn't figure out what it was for weeks and weeks,
and my wife goes to WebMD and searches something, and
she goes, well, you did get a spinal tap, right,

(44:37):
She goes, well, what I've read here is there could
be a thing called you might need a blood patch
or something like it opened up a little hole that
never got closed and that's why your brain. And I go,
I don't know, I don't know, you're my way, what
do you know? So we go to a doctor and
they can't figure it out. My wife goes, look, I'm
going to throw a little thing here. Is it possible
that he needs a blood patch?

Speaker 2 (44:57):
And the doctor goes yes, wow, So like, look, no
offense to doctors. Yeah, but I could be a doctor.
You could be a doctor, because.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
All it is is, you know what doctrine is, process
of elimination. It is Remember that game you would play
like twenty questions and eventually somehow would always be right
by the twentieth question, like you're thinking of a vagina?

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Like exactly got it?

Speaker 3 (45:18):
Because And that actually happened to me once on one
of those games. I kid you not, I'm like, I'm
thinking of a vagina. And I did the twenty questions
and I swear to you on my life. At the
end it just said it's puss was the word.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
I go, what?

Speaker 3 (45:31):
But uh, look, we could all be doctors. I think
we could all be doctors. Couldn't be surgeons. See, people
like I used to watch Gray's anatomy, okay. And they
used to bang on the surgeons, right, and they'd be like,
the surgeons are the bad ones, and then the good
ones are the doctors. The surgeons are the one that
control your life, like when they're doing brain surgery, like
that's a big deal. You know, it's not a big
deal being able to diagnose somebody with the sniffles, which

(45:53):
I could do my grandma, dude, all of our grandmas.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
Used to be able to diagnose us.

Speaker 3 (45:57):
They'd go, hey, don't go outside with wet here, you'll
get own you. I'd be like, my grandma's a doctor, doctor, Grandma, doctor.
Grandma has all the answers. She's solved it all anyway,
So if you want to get in you can eight

That's it, sir. When I had sent me the Panama

high school Spanish sistant graduate credit credits to graduate. Well,
who would have known that doing Panama? You know, less
than two years later, dude, I took high school Spanide

(46:58):

it's like we're in one of these heat that we're like,
we're like Aaron Rodgers. We're on like some sort of retreat.
The only thing missing is ayahuasca and explosive diarrhea da

(47:55):

Speaker 2 (47:58):
We've got the heat that, so we just need the
important part. We've cut it all soft, all right, Josh

Speaker 1 (48:09):
Make us the number one preset on your car radio
and on the pre new and improved Ihard Radio app.

Speaker 4 (48:15):
Listen for all your music radio end podcasts Free never
sounded so good.

Speaker 1 (48:20):
The Josh Innis Show on one six point seven WLLZ
Detroit's Wheels, The Josh Innis Show Sports All right.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
So you asked me earlier if there was anything new
on Chauncey Billups.

Speaker 2 (48:34):
Yeah, there really isn't.

Speaker 3 (48:36):
I mean, everything that we talked about last week is
kind of what's out there. Still, nothing new is developed.
I mean this people are denying that he did anything,
So there's that. But I found this story interesting from
I guess this was from a couple of days ago.
Guess Saturday headline from the New York Post ex Gambino
and Forcer says Chauncey Billups could have been blackmailed by

(48:57):
the mob in NBA poker scandal. And I find that
angle of it to be interesting because I keep asking
myself why, like why did Yeah, why is Chauncey Billups
involved in this?

Speaker 2 (49:09):
Why is Chauncey Billups?

Speaker 3 (49:11):
You know a guy who's probably got a good money
he's obviously got an amazing gig where he's.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
Making a lot of money. Why would he do this?

Speaker 13 (49:18):
Right?

Speaker 3 (49:19):
And I guess, And I was asking a buddy of
mine who's really into the mob about that. He's like, well,
you know, it could have been a situation where he
was like he owed them something, like he got into
something with them, and then once he owed them something,
they were able to use him as the debt within
the mind.

Speaker 2 (49:35):
And I get, I don't know why he would. But
this guy who is a former mobster, he was an
enforcer for the Gambino family, says he thinks the mafia
could have something on Chauncey Billups and the NBA coach
may be a victim of Basically, he might be a victim,
just like the people they were fleecing in these fake
poker matches. Quote.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
For them to do this, they probably knew somebody and
asked him for a favor. He's got a wife he's
cheating on. They caught him sniffing coke or whatever. They
got him somehow.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
John A. Ley theorized and that could be it.

Speaker 3 (50:09):
Maybe like they found some dirt on Chauncey they went
to him and said, oh, well, you're cheating on your
wife or all. We know that you're into drugs or whatever.
We need you to work for us, so that gets
out and then we'll probably.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
Kill you too. It's almost like those camgirls scams or
whatever where they diddling yourself to them and they're like, oh,
guess what, I'm gonna send this video here white unless
you send me Amazon gift cards. That happens it does
you better watch out? Oh huh, here you are thinking
you're heaving just a nice private conversation with the lovely
lady of the Internet.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
No, don't go to chatter bait. Yeah, do not go
to chatter bait. Guys, if you're gonna do anything, go
to the hub. Just watch the videos. You don't need
to enage and anything with anybody that. The internet's a bad,
terrible place. So who the hell knows what happened with Chauncey,
But either way, he got himself in it, whether he
was blackmailed into it or not, still got to be
part of it. Now, the mob is a scary thing, though.

(51:03):
They get their hooks into someone and you're stuck for life.
That's what happened to a lot of these guys who
back in the day were shaving points, like some of
these guys like at Boston when Boston College had a
point shaving scandal in the seventies. You get in one
time and then they own you. You can't get out
of it, and you can't go to the Feds because
then they'll kill you, like or you'll either get arrested
or you or you sing on these guys and then

(51:25):
they'll kill you.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
Like. Here's a word of the wise.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Uncle Josh has been providing a lot of information and
advice today.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
Don't get involved with the mob.

Speaker 3 (51:36):
There you go, good advice. Look, I think it's great advice.
Don't get involved with the mob.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
All right. Other stuff.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
Chauncey's old team, the Piston's got to win last night
one nineteen one thirteen over the Boston Celtics, and Detroit
is now two and one on the year. Hey how
about our boys, the Red Wings? Man the Red Wings
just continue. I mean they had a little downward to turn.
They had a couple of bad games in there. They
lost to the Sabers, then to the Islanders, but then

(52:04):
they they turned things around a little bit on Saturday
and rallied from four nothing down to beat the Blues
six to four, because that was going to be a
really ugly three game stretch had they not bounced back.
But they did and there you go, well done. And
they play hockey again tomorrow against the Blues, this time
in Saint Louis. Puck drop is at eight fifteen, now

(52:24):
you know, And yeah, I told you Brian Kelly got
fired at l shuit. The fact that they continue to
fire all these coaches and just these schools have all
this money to just spend to make coaches go away.
It's pretty wild. Like there's like where this money comes from.
Like all these schools have these big boosters, and it's like, ah,
you know, we hate this coach. We're going to cobble

(52:44):
together fifty million dollars just so this guy won't coach.
Then they have to find another probably ten million dollars
a year to pay another coach. It's nuts, Like all told,
this thing is going to cost them like one hundred
million dollars to get rid of this guy. It's bonkers.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
That's why. That has nothing to do with why your
tuitions going up.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
You think it might, or your tickets to the games
might be going out.

Speaker 2 (53:05):
True, there you go, and that is sports and now.

Speaker 3 (53:11):
White Zombie out Rob Zombie, White Zombie. I still love
his wife that we talked about that the other day.
But I find his wife to be super trashy hot
and I love her very much. Yeah, you looked at
trashy gothlop. I do big trashy gothlok. Guy, don't know
what to tell you. We are Detroit's wheels, all those

(53:31):
six point seven Detroit's wheels. Josh and his show, It's
Josh and James Today. Here's a story for you. Do
you do you have pets? Yeah, you have dogs. We
have a dog. So have you ever left your dog
with a stranger, like with Rover one of these type
of things?

Speaker 2 (53:47):
No, no, no, no no. It's always been like a
family member or somebody trusted friend, friend of the family.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Yeah, my wife refuses to trust like any well, actually
I take that back. So we did find for our
one dog that hated to be home alone. This is
the most like white people, first world problem ever. But
back when I had a couple of bucks and like
we want to go out to go see a movie
on a given night, we did find like some pet sitters,
and they ended up coming to the house.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
They'd sit with our dog.

Speaker 3 (54:12):
Our dog didn't want to do anything, he just wanted
to sit and wait for us to come home. So
basically we paid someone to sit there and pet our
dog for a couple hours while we went to shows.
I know, right, but like my wife refuses to let
anybody like come see our dogs or anything over the weekend,
or watch them for multiple days, or take them for
walks or anything like that. Well, this person, Barbara Paz,

(54:37):
was a person who was someone who was entrusted to care.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
He was a pet sitter.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
She was a pet sitter, and this was in Florida,
and she hired this woman, Elan Jimenez, to watch her dogs.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
Oh, so she's the pet owner.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
So Barbara Paz is the pet owner and Elan Jimenez
is the pet sitter. So she comes home a couple
of days after taking a trip, she comes home to
find out that her dog is not only dead, but
her dog has been cremated, already died and already been cremated.

Speaker 2 (55:12):
All right, how many days was she gone? I think
like she went on vacation.

Speaker 3 (55:17):
It doesn't say how many days exactly, but she was
on vacation, so weak, I don't know whatever. So when
asked for more details, Barbara asked this woman all right,
She said that the dog had passed away in her
sleep and that she'd been trying. She even tried to
perform CPR on the dog, but the dog died in
the sleep.

Speaker 2 (55:36):
Right, So Paz, who was the woman? Okay?

Speaker 3 (55:41):
So again I think I've got everybody confused here. So
Barbara Paz is the dog sitter. Okay, So but just
remember that the name was Barbara Paz.

Speaker 2 (55:50):
Barbara is the dog. Is the dog sitter?

Speaker 3 (55:52):
Elin hum Inez is the woman who hired the sitter,
So it's her her dog.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
Okay. So Eli went on vacation, Elin went on vacation.
We got it.

Speaker 3 (56:01):
So Paz the dogs that are also paid for an
emergency cremation and presented Humenez with the dog's ashes.

Speaker 2 (56:10):
Barbara, Okay, that's her. The bad person got the dog cremated.

Speaker 3 (56:16):
Thinking the story didn't add up, Jumenez called the place
where the dog was cremated and asked for more information.
They told her the dog was brought to them with
injuries consistent with being attacked.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
By another dog. Oh my god, So the dog.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
Didn't actually die in its sleep. Oh my god, the
dog was attacked by another dog, and this woman brought
the dog to be cremated and then made up a story.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
So what you do run some sort of like underground
dog fighty ring.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
Well, they have other dogs, so I don't know if
maybe from what I'm reading here, she has other dogs
that are part of the family of dogs. So I'm
not sure if maybe they I don't know, like those
dogs attacked the other dog or what.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
We don't know.

Speaker 3 (56:57):
But Jumenez also alleged that Paz wasn't even caring for
the dog at the time of her death, and was
quote competing in a jiu jitsu turn so, so of
course they weren't carrying for the dog. The dogs were
left at home alone, I guess, or wherever somebody else
was watching the dogs. Maybe I don't know now, that
could be perhaps they passed off the dogs to somebody

(57:18):
else to watch while she competed in a jiu jitsu tournament.

Speaker 2 (57:22):
That's wild. Yeah, so devastating, dude.

Speaker 13 (57:25):
I know you.

Speaker 3 (57:27):
Your dog's dead and cremated already. I hope he's got
there like the paw print thing, And I don't I
don't know that, old.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
I don't know that Barbara went through all the steps
to Barbara. Well, Barbara is going to get a bad
review from me. I'm a dog city website.

Speaker 3 (57:41):
That's Rover. And Barbara is no longer on Rover. She's
been removed and.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
Jimenez actually has sued the Rover. She's seeking restitution from Rover.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
Now.

Speaker 3 (57:53):
Rover offered her one thousand dollars in restitution and she's like, no,
but they got want more. I'd want a little bit
more too, So yes, but her dog was just dead
and creamated. Imagine you come home, man, it was a
great vacation. Hey man, I was your vacation. It was great. Well,
I've got news. Your dog is dead and I've already
had it cremated. Oh, and didn't reach out to you,
didn't let you know your dog had died. Didn't let

(58:14):
you know I was gonna get the dog creamated.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
It was your phone broken. You didn't call me to
let me know that something happened to my sweet little
mister Snuffles.

Speaker 3 (58:21):
Yep, So mister Snuffles got attacked by another dog apparently,
is what it would seem like. And then to cover
her tracks, the dog sitter decided to take the dog
to a creamate to be cremated, and then made up
a little story, spun a little yarn about how the
dog does That dog must have been.

Speaker 2 (58:38):
Pretty jacked up if she had to decide to just
emergency cremate her.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
I also enjoy the idea that she's like she made
up a whole story about like doing CPR. It's like, look,
I woke up, the dog was dead. I did CPR,
Like she's like blowing into the dog's mouth and everything. No,
dog just got attacked and died, which is.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
Something I would never even consider. Like if I woke
up and just the dog looked like it had died, Yeah,
I'm not jumping on it and try to perform a
CPR A little doggy heart padals.

Speaker 6 (59:05):
Come on, come on left, please, God damn it left.

Speaker 2 (59:11):
You're just heart beating again. But anyway, so don't leave
your dogs with Rover. I'm sure that there are many
great things.

Speaker 3 (59:16):
I'm sure that ninety nine percent of the things on
Rover are fine, But it's the one thing that's bad
that's no good.

Speaker 2 (59:22):
Or maybe ask Kay, do you have any jiu jitsu
tournaments coming up? While I'm on vacation. Yeah, that's another
good point.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
Like so, if you're gonna have to dump my dog
off with someone else because you're doing jiu jitsu, then
I'm gonna have to look for someone else, or.

Speaker 2 (59:33):
I'll give you a number if somebody else you can
call that can come over and watch for a couple
of minutes so you can go throw whoever you're throwing
over your shoulder and try to get that gold medal, do.

So you're saying, Josh, remember that one guy that used
to start that started Paul.

Speaker 8 (01:03:41):
I'm saying is going to take you off the air.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
That guy, what was his name?

Speaker 3 (01:03:46):
I don't remember what his name is. I mean, I
don't know dufus.

Speaker 12 (01:03:54):
He had one of those names where you pronounce it
like in a friend.

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Oh, I know who you're talking about. Yeah, I forgot
the guy's name. But yeah, the guy that was calling
early on that hated everything we were doing. Yeah, I
remember what you're calling.

Speaker 12 (01:04:07):
Yeah, as soon as I hang up, i'll remember his name.

Speaker 2 (01:04:09):
Yeah. So we need more people like that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
We need people that don't like us to call, and
then we need like dramas what we need.

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
I think it would help, see Fred, Thank you Fred.
See Fred gets if we need more drama. He could
be a Morning Jokings, Yes he could.

Speaker 3 (01:04:24):
Casey is vehemently opposed to any sort of drama or controversy,
and see I agree with Fred to a degree. I'm like, hey,
we need some sort of controversy and then maybe people
will recognize us, because you know, what do we have
to lose? But Casey's like, no, we can't have any controversy.
So look, Fred, I appreciate your insights and I consider you.
I mean, I agree with you.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
James.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
He's like a radio consultant, but Casey is vehemently opposed
to anything that's controversial. That is not what Casey's into.
Let me see here, wheels.

Speaker 11 (01:04:55):

mister Dennis. What is on your mind?

Speaker 13 (01:05:47):
Not much, man, I'm just uh, you know, no lions
this week, so really there's nothing to talk about.

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
I agree, and.

Speaker 3 (01:05:53):
Football sucked yesterday. It was a really crappy football weekend.

Speaker 13 (01:05:56):
Oh my, I was hoping Roger's going to be green baby,
That's all I.

Speaker 2 (01:06:00):
Was rooting for last night. And then they got their
asses kicked in the second half.

Speaker 13 (01:06:04):
They sure did twenty one unanswered points in the fourth quarter.

Speaker 2 (01:06:08):
Come on, Yeah, it was no good.

Speaker 13 (01:06:10):
No, I'm a little salty over that one for sure,
me too.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
Well, I feel you, mister Dennis. Have a good day.
Glad we had that conversation you've called, mister Dennis. We'll
talk again tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
All right, it's the Josh Ennis Show. Who see Randy
And he's got a person that looks official. There's a
guy wearing ooh. There's two gentlemen that look like they
know how to fix air conditioners.

Speaker 7 (01:06:29):
Oooh.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
That could be good news. This could be huge, This
could be a huge development. We'll keep you posted. But
in the meantime, we'll play Nirvana. It smells like team
spirit on Wheels.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Reroads has ants.

Speaker 7 (01:06:44):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:06:45):
We need that Poison tour to happen next year.

Speaker 3 (01:06:47):
We were told there'd be a Poison reunion tour in
twenty twenty six, and I still haven't heard anything about
the Poison Reunion tour in twenty twenty six. But I
want it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
I'm just wait for that email. This ISS's got a
big announcement to me. Hoping nobody else leaks it. That's
us anyway. It's the Josh Ennis Show on Detroit's wheels. Hello, Hey,
so are you into it? Like you know Penny Wise
the dancing clown. Is that something you're into?

Speaker 7 (01:07:12):
Or no?

Speaker 2 (01:07:12):
Not so much?

Speaker 7 (01:07:13):
Mean neither.

Speaker 2 (01:07:14):
See.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
When I was younger, I was really into the og
it with Tim Curry and that Judgey they all float
and all that. Yeah, But then I realized that I
never actually watched the movie. I only watched like the
opening ten minutes of it. That's like my point of
reference for if movie you need like two days to watch. Well,
so I had it on VHS two tapes two. It

(01:07:34):
was a two taper like Titanic or so or like
you know, it was a mini series, so of course
it was two tapes. But like I like, I would
watch it, but the only thing I remember about it
was the first ten minutes with Georgie and the boat
and well, that's mighty smart of your dad, Georgie and
all that kind of stuff. Very wise of your Dad, Georgie.
But outside of that, it's like, eh, it's very creepy.

(01:07:55):
It's such a long movie. I actually sat down and
trying to watch the entire thing, and then something came up.
I was like, recorders of the way through, so pause
it and go to do what I'm gonna do. Then
when it came back, the TV would not let me
fast forward to the point where I had left.

Speaker 2 (01:08:08):
So I'm like, I'm not wife, you know what, I'm out?
And that was the og one. Gee. I really didn't
like the remake. Yeah, the remake with just whatever.

Speaker 3 (01:08:15):
I tried to get into it, and I watched the
first one. I didn't watch the second one. But now
you get the it origin story. It's called it Welcome
to darry and it's the origin story. See that I
think I'd find more interesting, Like how this penny Wise,
the dancing clown.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
Became what he became like a child killer something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:08:35):
Well it's like Freddy is the bastard son of one
hundred maniacs, but the townspeople of Springwood like murdered him
because he was a child predator or whatever. Right, Like
I've been waiting for the Freddie origin story. There's been
talk about a Freddie origin story. To me, that's more
interesting than the oh, here's the clown eating the kids, Like,
that's not interesting to me. How the clown became the

(01:08:57):
clown is interesting. How Freddie became Freddie? You know that
we know the origin story of like Jason, Jason drown
and that was basically what the first movie was kind
of centerund but like Freddy and characters like that, I
want to know how they became these beans that they became.
And Freddie tried it actually in a movie called Freddie's
Dead The Final Nightmare. It kind of did Alice Cooper.

(01:09:18):
Alice Cooper played his dad in that movie. Actually, yeah,
it was a brief scene where Alice Cooper played Freddie's
dad and Roseanne was in and it was a really
campy movie. I actually like it, but I want to
full on mini series Freddie origin story. But I take
it then that Welcome to Darry which now is coming
out on Halloween on HBO, Max, I take it this
is something that you're not interested in.

Speaker 2 (01:09:39):
Probably not no.

Speaker 3 (01:09:40):
See I hear like rave reviews that gets incredible. Maybe
I'll check it out. But here's what I've learned. About
rave reviews. Usually when the reviews are rave, the movie
sucks or the show sucks. I tend to like movies,
and maybe it's just something that that's in my mental
makeup where I know that everybody else likes or hates
it or likes it, so I have to hate it
or vice versa. Maybe that's what will happen with me.

(01:10:01):
But I am intrigued by this. At least I'm intrigued
by this just because I like the backstory of Penny Wise.
But I'm not gonna go back and watch any of
these IT movies. I found that I thought they were
boring as hell, like I thought the I think, see
it is a great example of something that you watched
when you were a kid, and it skews what you
think of it.

Speaker 2 (01:10:19):
You think it's a lot better because you watched it
as a kid and you're so terrified by it. Of course,
I really let that impression on you, so you think,
oh man, this is gonna be terrifying to watch, and
then you watch it like, oh this suck.

Speaker 3 (01:10:30):
This was a mini series, this was made for television,
it's not And this back and before made for television
was like great stuff, Like you know sopranos or whatever.
This is a made for TV movie and it sucked,
but you you know, you think highly of it because
you watched it when you were a young boy. It's like,
that's why I can't write reviews or anything for kids movies,
because they're not made for me, and I viewed them
like Rookie of the Year is a ridiculous movie about

(01:10:50):
a kid that breaks his arm and can throw it
one hundred and fifty miles per hour. Well, in reality,
that movie should get like an F but it's not
because it's a kid's movie and I watched it when
I was eight, so I view it differently.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
That's way it's number one on your list exactly. All right,
it's the Josh Ennis Show.

Speaker 3 (01:11:03):
You want to get in eighty seven seven nine eight
eight one oh six seven Stay there.

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
This is the Josh Ennis Show on one O six
point seven doubleo handled the free, new and improved Iyard Radio.

Speaker 4 (01:11:15):
App listen for all your music radio en podcasts free
never sounded so good.

Speaker 1 (01:11:20):
The Josh Innis Show on one O six point seven
Double ULLZ Detroit's Wheels Well.

Speaker 3 (01:11:27):
Six point seven Detroit's Wheels Josh Innis Show. We have
hit eighty seven in the studio. Now we've actually gotten hotter.

Speaker 7 (01:11:33):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
That's our weather report for the day. It's the weather
report inside of our studio. It's eighty seven little old degrees.
I am Josh, he is James. It's the Josh Ennis Show.
Earlier we played this for you. I'll play a little
bit of it now in case you missed it earlier.
But there is a Kiss country song that was previously unreleased,
and now it is on a box set for Dress

(01:11:56):
to Kill, and it's actually we listened to it earlier.
I don't think it was.

Speaker 2 (01:12:01):
All that bad, not terrible. I didn't think it was terrible.
But let's play a little bit of this is from
the mid seventies. It's on this new Kiss box set.
Let's play a little bit.

Speaker 7 (01:12:28):
What I do? What I did? You can have to tell.

Speaker 9 (01:12:49):
After the first time, what.

Speaker 7 (01:12:58):
Ouse top time?

Speaker 2 (01:13:10):
I thought it was pretty good. I don't think it's
bad much much worse.

Speaker 3 (01:13:17):
See, I would have thought the same thing, but it's
pretty good. Remember they did some tunes that were kind
of acoustic E sounding like that too, like a hard
Luck Woman, and hard Luck Woman's a great song.

Speaker 2 (01:13:27):
So I didn't think this is terrible.

Speaker 3 (01:13:29):
But I went back and looked at the text from
when we played it earlier, and it's just they didn't
release it because it sucks. I don't think it sucks.
I liked it, so you can pound sand. I think
it's pretty good. It's no achy breaking heard no, but
that'd be great if Paul Stanley would do Achy breaky hard.

Speaker 6 (01:13:49):
Yes, it was don't tell my aet pretty good hot, yeah,
oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:13:56):
Say that'd be fun. But yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
We also that let us down a wormhole of the
dock of rock doing country radio. When one O six
flipped a Country No Home. You go from playing all
this rock music to there ain't no Home Home on
the range. And there was some really good country music

(01:14:21):
in that era, like outlaw country music, but then there
was also some that was just really really crappy country music.

Speaker 2 (01:14:27):
So country.

Speaker 10 (01:14:29):
When I was six, we heard from David Frizzell and
Shelley West You're the Reason God made Oklahoma and Ramsey
Bailey too old to play Cowboy.

Speaker 8 (01:14:35):
From the.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
Old Bailey. Hey guys, you gotta listen to Old Razzie Bailey.

Speaker 10 (01:14:42):
The Ramsey album three fifty seven, Doug Podell with you Here,
and I'll be right back with the music of Melt
Tillis along with all the latest weather information for you
right after we check in with news from the source.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
Do you believe that Doug here's that and gets PTSD.
I believe it.

Speaker 3 (01:14:54):
He's like, damn it, Like he starts like having flashbacks
and starts to sweat.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
It's like going on. They're flipping formatsica. He's like, is
it happening to me again? Is it happening again? On
Country one oh six? More money for them saying they
just won't accept any.

Speaker 8 (01:15:07):
Plastic money at all.

Speaker 2 (01:15:09):
They say they can't afford it anymore. And that's news.
I'm mary lyon from the source.

Speaker 10 (01:15:13):
In the weather forecast throughout the rest of the afternoon,
they're calling for light rain and drizzle with little or
no snow accumulation.

Speaker 2 (01:15:19):
That's a man who's been beaten. He's been defeated, and
then tonight occasional light rain. I used to play rock
and roll.

Speaker 3 (01:15:25):
Now I'm playing Frizzy McPherson or whatever the hell the
person's name was, Miss Frizzle, And I'm doing the weather
on this country station.

Speaker 10 (01:15:33):
With snow likely later on in the evening with one
to three inches possibly by morning of the white stuff
on the ground, with a load to drop down into
the lower twenties.

Speaker 3 (01:15:41):
There's also a ninety nine percent chance that I drink
Draino tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
First, Ronnie millset.

Speaker 10 (01:15:45):
Myrow mostly cloudy, windy and cold, with a good chance
of snow flurries throughout the day, and I expected only
to hit near thirty. Right now we have got partly
cloudy skies, some light rain falling downtown, and one.

Speaker 3 (01:15:56):
Day I just want to play all of these old
things and tell nobody and play the songs that he's
talking up and just see if people will believe the
station flipped a country again everybody, or the joke will
be on me and the station will at some point.

Speaker 10 (01:16:07):
For listening to dou wu wu w W Detroit Country
one six for the music of mel Tillis and the rank.

Speaker 3 (01:16:20):
Sometimes that's interesting too, that, like Doca give him credit,
he was able to just kind of ease right in.

Speaker 2 (01:16:27):
Here's mel Tilli's.

Speaker 3 (01:16:28):
Like a week ago he's playing led Zeppelin and fog
Hat and all that, and now he's playing mel Tilla's.

Speaker 2 (01:16:33):
Ripping lines of strippers boobies, and now he's dressing up
and overall man hanging out with Bartles and James.

Speaker 3 (01:16:41):
So anyway, uh, maybe we'll get Doc up here to
just share I told you, I want to get Doc
up here just to share stories sometimes and listen to
what it was like to go from being, you know,
the dock of rock to, as we put at the
count of country country. And I hope he referred to
himself as that because that would have been awesome. All right,
let's play some rock and roll for you?

Speaker 7 (01:16:58):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
Would you like that? Now here's a song that was
covered by the Ataris, and it's.

Speaker 3 (01:17:04):
Not a popular viewpoint, but I actually like the Atari's
version better.

Speaker 2 (01:17:09):
I went, do you feel about it? Not that this
is bad, it's very good. I like Don Henley.

Speaker 3 (01:17:15):
But it's called the Boys of Summer, which could be
problematic in twenty twenty five. I don't know who's to
say they're boys. Let them make that decision. We are
Detroit's wheels.

Speaker 12 (01:17:30):
Come on in play.

Speaker 3 (01:17:32):
All right, it's the Joshennas Show and we got to
get somebody into the Toolbox party.

Speaker 2 (01:17:38):
Do you want to go? Would you like to be
in attendance?

Speaker 7 (01:17:43):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:17:44):
Would you like to possibly win your share of over
twenty thousand dollars of awesome prizes. Oh yes, like giant
TVs and PlayStation fives and smokers and cool tools. Lots
of tools, No Dale, no power tools, but there are
power Toolsdale, all the power tools.

Speaker 2 (01:18:04):
Thanks to all of our friends who have made this possible.

Speaker 3 (01:18:06):
By the way, those friends include Bebie's Liquor and Fine Wine,
Dean Seller's Ford, and the Troy Motor Mall and.

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
Detroit Diamond Drilling.

Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
Going twenty thousand dollars, it's well over twenty thousand dollars
kind of by the way, well over twenty thousand all
that stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:18:22):
Oh yeah, So, and we.

Speaker 3 (01:18:24):
Want to get you into the part, hey, which is
coming up November eighth, which, if you're wondering, is the
day that the new look LSU Tigers play Alabama now.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
That they fired Brian Kelly. Ha, you son of a bitch.
Get out of there, so we'll find you in the
sport book. Oh yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:18:43):
I'll be like, where's Josh, Like I don't know where
he is, and then I'll be over there playing the
Buffalo slot machines and going over to the sportsbook and
placing my bets on LS shoot up said Alabama because
we're back. But that's neither here nor there. I'm going
to get somebody into the Toolbox party. That's the most
important thing to mention here today.

Speaker 2 (01:19:02):
Those papers away, you might need to write some information
on that.

Speaker 7 (01:19:04):
I might need to.

Speaker 3 (01:19:05):
Also the other news that doesn't concern you at all.
But it is wonderful. We are down to eighty degrees
in the studio. So somebody fixed the air. This is
a wonderful, wonderful day. We spent four hours up here
in eighty eight degree heat, and now right when it's
time for us to get out of here, they're like
fixed yep. So but hey, I'm not going to complain

(01:19:28):
because today is a glorious day that has been provided
to us by our Lord and Savior Jesus.

Speaker 2 (01:19:33):
Christ and LSU for firing Brian Kelly.

Speaker 3 (01:19:38):
But that said, let's see if I can find somebody
on the phones who wants to attend the Toolbox party
that wants to go.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
I assume all of them do. Let's see here, let's
go with this one. Hello, Wheels, Hey, how you doing?

Speaker 7 (01:19:53):
Man? Hey? Who's this? Oh? Max?

Speaker 2 (01:19:56):
Hey? Is that Mac? Or Max?

Speaker 8 (01:20:00):
Matt?

Speaker 2 (01:20:00):
Like Matthew? Oh m A t t okay, how are
you Matt, I'm doing okay a little bit chili, But
how about yourself brag?

Speaker 3 (01:20:08):
Why don't you just eighty eight degrees in the studio
all day? I got sweat in every crevice of my body.
And you're you have the audacity, Matt, to complain about
how chili it is a little chili.

Speaker 12 (01:20:19):
Well, see, I work outside in the cold.

Speaker 8 (01:20:21):
I work outside in the heat, I work outside in
the rain, and.

Speaker 3 (01:20:24):
Yeah, I'm almost Let me ask you a question, Matt,
would you go up to some Ethiopia and can be like, God,
I'm famished?

Speaker 2 (01:20:30):
No, you wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (01:20:32):
You would never say that to someone who's starving in Ethiopia.
And you should never talk about how cold you are
when there's two jimokes that have been sitting in a
ninety degree studio all day.

Speaker 2 (01:20:40):
Do better be aware.

Speaker 8 (01:20:43):
I'm sorry, I could be a better person.

Speaker 2 (01:20:45):
I guess I think you should work on that. Matt.
You know, I could really use some good tools out here,
out in the cold to help keep me warm. They
always say the heats and the tools. That's true. Uh
what did you say you do? Did you say you're
a maleman? No? No, no, I put up awnings. Oh handrails.

Speaker 3 (01:21:02):
Oh, oh, rails, that's what I heard. Mail, Okay, I
got you. Well that I mean, look, so look that's
a man's work. I applaud you for doing man's work.

Speaker 8 (01:21:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:21:11):
Yeah, someone's got to do it, man, somebody. We all
can't be all in the heat.

Speaker 3 (01:21:15):
Yeah, we all can't sit here on the radio and
bitch about how hot it is for a day while
we use our voices for our job. Not everybody can
do that, right, exactly. Well, Matt, we're gonna send you
to the Toolbox party.

Speaker 2 (01:21:25):
All right. Oh man, that's amazing. That's awesome. So you
and two other people are gonna get to go, So
pick your two friends.

Speaker 8 (01:21:33):
Awesome, man, I'm so excited.

Speaker 12 (01:21:34):
I can't believe this.

Speaker 2 (01:21:35):
I've been calling in for like two weeks every day.
I got the guy I work with. He's like, call, call,
we're both calling.

Speaker 12 (01:21:42):
I can't believe I made it do.

Speaker 2 (01:21:43):
I'm so excited. This is awesome.

Speaker 7 (01:21:44):
Brother.

Speaker 3 (01:21:45):
Let me put you on hold and i'll get your
inphone just a second. See, we're making dreams come to persistance.

Speaker 2 (01:21:49):
He pays off.

Speaker 3 (01:21:50):
Look, I don't want to overinflate what we're doing here,
but like there's the make a wish people and they
do fine things, they do good work, they do quality work.
And then there's us who are sending awning guys to
a party where they might win tools.

Speaker 2 (01:22:02):
Some might say that's even more important work.

Speaker 3 (01:22:04):
I mean, I'd argue it is. We know that this
guy's got work he's got to do. Is a person
who works in the community. He is a community servant.
He's putting up handrails. He's putting up.

Speaker 2 (01:22:13):
Handrails and awnings. That's what a man does. So does
make a wish? Kids are gonna be able to get
up those stairways with all those handrails exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:22:21):
So I mean, if you look at the process of
who's more important in all of this, it's bad. So
you'll have your next chance to get into the toolbox
party at twelve twenty five with Rob and is the
doc here today?

Speaker 2 (01:22:35):
I think the doc's here.

Speaker 3 (01:22:36):
You asked me every day, is a doc here today?
Can doc text me every morning just to let me
know if he's here or not?

Speaker 2 (01:22:42):
What is his schedule? Because then, like I came home
