Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
The Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Earlier in this hearing, you said in your opening statement
that there is nothing more urgent than impeachment right now,
this is the most urgent thing we could possibly do. Well,
you know what, if you're a senior right now and
you can't afford your prescription drugs, that's more urgent than this.
If you're a manufacturer wanting to dominate the Western hemisphere
with the passage of the USMCA, that is more urgent.
(00:40):
If you're a farmer who wants to open markets so
that your family can survive and thrive, that is a
lot more urgent than this partisan process. If you're a
desperate family member watching someone succumb to addiction, solving the
opioid problem probably more urgent. Why is it that women
with the least likelihood of getting pregnant are the ones
(01:03):
most worried about having abortions? Nobody wants to impregnate you
if you look like a thought?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Is it safe to say that based off of your comments,
you're suggesting that these women at these abortion rallies are
ugly and overweight.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yes, what do you see to people who think.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
That those comments are offensive. You all get all worked
up that there's going to be some uncomfortable, chaotic moment
that I'll feel pressure from conservatives or Democrats or whomever.
I feel the judgment of history. I feel the weight
of that. I worry that when the history books are
written about this country going down, that my name is
going to be on the board of directors here.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And if this.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Country's going down, and if we're losing the dollar, I
am going down fighting. And I don't care if that
means fighting Republicans, Democrats, the uniparty, the leadership, the packs,
the lobbyists. I've had it, and I take no lecture
(02:36):
on asking patriotic Americans to weigh in and contribute to
this fight.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
From those who would.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Grovel and bend mee for the lobbyists and special interests
who own our leadership, who have followed foo all.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
You want, who have followed out this town.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
And have borrowed against the future of our future generations.
I'll be happy to fund my political operation through the
work of hard working Americans ten and twenty and thirty
dollars at a time. And you all keep showing up
at the lobbyist fundraisers and see how that goes.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
For the love of the love.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Matt Gates resigned from Congress yesterday to prepare for his
nomination to be the Attorney General of the United States
of America. I feel like I'm pretty well tied in
(03:55):
to the Trump administration, and I did not hear from
one person that Gates was under consideration. I had no idea.
I didn't see that coming, and my sources did not
see that coming. There was initially quite a bit of
(04:19):
interest in Ken Paxton. There had been a lot of
talk about Kin Paxton, of course the attorney general in
the state of Texas as attorney general. Was my understanding
that it's not my understanding. No, for fact, Trump had
privately told some people that he would like Paxton in
(04:40):
that position. That doesn't mean necessarily he was going to
do it. Oftentimes folks will flow to trial balloon, and
I think Trump, I think this is the business side
of him. He will as he's as an idea is
terminating his head, He'll just kind of sprinkle it in
(05:04):
there and see what kind of reaction he gets. Now,
my understanding was that Cornyn Well, I can't say this
to my understanding, it had been said by several folks
(05:25):
that Cornyan was actually supporting Paxton for US Attorney General.
Because Paxton is it is it is expected that Paxton's
going to challenge Cornyn for reelection. Cornyan, of course, as
you know, was defeated yesterday in the Wednesday morning back
(05:53):
room deal that put John Thune in as Senate Majority leader.
They made a show of pretending that Rick Scott had
a shot so that the grassroots would feel like something
had been done and they'd been listened to, But they weren't.
That was all a show and that was never going
(06:13):
to happen. That was never real. And in fact, I
think many of the people who claimed they were supporting
Rick Scott, in fact some of them who were switching
over the last minute to support Rick Scott when they
weren't already and all of a sudden, I'm supporting Rick Scott.
So you weren't supporting Scott when it was open, and
now you're supporting Scott when it's clear he can't win.
(06:35):
So they supported Scott on the first ballot and then
oh he's out. All right, we're down to the final two.
I guess I'll go back to the guy I told
you two days ago, I was going to endorse that
whole thing is a charade, a sham. So you've got
Thune as majority leader and Cornyn without a leadership position.
(06:58):
Cornyan was immediate in his public statement that he would
be running for reelection in twenty twenty six. That is
I mean, we're talking about a primary that is three
four months, sixteen months away. That's not so long away.
(07:20):
The the spring primary in Texas, which will be March
of twenty twenty six. Ramon side for that math for
me real quick. So what are we in right now?
We're almost in December. So November, December, January, February, March
four plus sixteen months away. That's not right, December January, February, Yeah,
(07:44):
it is. M So he will he will. That means
John Wayne mccornyan. I will wait on that will be
uh all of a sudden, mister d C is going
to be showing up in Lufkin. There You'll be just
(08:07):
minding your own business in Lubbock, and there he'll be more.
How many cities can you name it start with an
L in Texas. I got Lubbock, I got Lufkin, I
got Laredo. Well you got League City. I see, that's
that's we're very different. I wouldn't have thought of League
City right off League City, Lafayette. That's East Texas. That's
(08:32):
East Texas right there. Yeah. So so I said to
my wife last night, she said, well, what do you think.
We don't normally talk politics, but she said, what do
you think about Matt Gates? I said, I love the
wrecking ball approach. I just worry. I don't you know,
Gates is kind of a wild card. I don't want
him to do something embarrassed administration and cause problems. And
what I said, he can fire him if he's okay,
(08:53):
that's a good point. Lampass is good call.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Wow, Michael Barry, look at you.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Oh man, we forgot Lamark. Jim said, Livings.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Extreme plays a back again extreme plays.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I didn't know that's the best you got. I have
a thing that the Windows came an extreamways out in
the pantheon of great English literature, Herman Melville's Moby Dick
now ranks as perhaps the great American novel. It was
(10:21):
written on this day in eighteen fifty one, little known today,
kind of in that kind of kind in that bag
of facts like George Washington died not knowing about dinosaurs,
because it was two or three years after he died
that the existence of dinosaurs, the entire concept of dinosaurs
(10:47):
was unknown, And then dinosaurs are discovered, and little boys
ever since I had happy childhoods to think that there's
George Washington laying on his death better and you walk in,
you go so Cornosaurus rex or velociraptor, and he would say,
(11:08):
what are you talking about? And then you have to go.
You don't have enough time to explain it. You're not
going to know who Steven Spielberg was, none of it.
H Rest your weary eyes, soldier. Your race is run. Well,
it wasn't until I'm going to say nineteen ten. It
(11:30):
might have been nineteen o eight. It might have been
nineteen twelve. I tend to think of dates some distance
from a round number. It's a weird way I do things.
But a professor rediscovered, or a professor sort of reintroduced
this novel and made the case that this is the
(11:53):
great epic American novel. And suddenly that idea began to
spread and across campuses, and then it became the case
within a decade that you were not a learned American
if you had not read this distinctly American piece of literature,
(12:15):
what you take for granted now right, call me Ishmael,
Gregory Peck. I mean, it's so much a part of
the culture. But that was all manufactured sixty years after
it was written. Melville didn't make any money on that.
If you met Herman Melville in eighteen eighty one, eighteen
ninety one, probably nineteen oh one, he hadn't seen the
(12:35):
money that book would make. He was not revered, at
least not for that piece the way he later would be.
And I say all that to say that, to say
this dumbass Ramon, I asked to find to come out
of the break with something directly or indirectly, because even
if it's indirect some of you will figure it out.
(12:57):
Something that would reflect the monumental statuesque epic play that
Moby Dick Hole No No Wrong holds in in in
the pantheon of American literature culture. Okay, Ramond is, okay,
(13:18):
you you're gonna redeem yourself. Oh Lord Rameela says he
has a reading from Moby Dick. Okay, you want to
put some music, Oh, you have music okay, all right,
go ahead, do you do you?
Speaker 4 (13:32):
And now? Ramon Roeblist Jr. Reads famous works of literature
this episode, Moby Dick. She quietly crept into his room.
What are you doing? Moby said, I'm gonna make a
man out of you, sailor.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
But lady Starbuck, you're my fiance's best friend. Hush now,
lay back and let this white wall. Oh wait a minute,
Moby's Oh, I grabbed the wrong book.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
This has been Ramon Junior reading famous works of literature.
Stream again Extreme Place.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Somebody tuned into the show for the first time ever today,
Maybe by accident. Maybe the astros were on last night.
Maybe they were trying to get to the Vietnamese channel
help me, Extreme Places. Maybe they were looking for something
(14:52):
else and they ended up and that's what they heard.
You was like, ID, you're that guy on the radio
Michael Berry and Michael Berry Show. Uh wait a second.
They do blue stuff, weren't they. No, not that I
(15:12):
know of them. Yeah, I think that's when I turned
in one day and they had a whole Yeah it
was I had to change the dial. All right, Well,
we have to talk about the astrodome. We have to
talk about the astrodome because they're at it again. And
(15:36):
wouldn't you know at the local news stations are cheerleading
for it. They only have to raise a billion and
a half dollars and we'll have something nice. The astronome
will be nice. It really is sad. It's embarrassing to watch.
It really is embarrassing to watch. It is the last
(16:00):
gasp of people who still view the city of Houston
in the image they dreamed of in the nineteen eighties.
See Houston crept up on America. It wasn't like the
other major cities. You had New York, which was the
(16:22):
great American city and emerged into the great World city,
and they're all New York. It comes out of the
coaching tree of London and Paris and Rome. And then
you had Chicago, which is this sort of manufactured city
(16:44):
that is the capital of the Midwest. And then you
have the westward expansion and the very late development of
Los Angeles that's built on the pretty city in a
pretty place with pretty people, and it was the city
of the arts and of course film. And then you
(17:06):
have this place that during all of that, including the
rise of Los Angeles, you have this literal swamp down
in Texas, the Great America, the Great Texas City was
not Houston. It was Galveston. But you have the fire
and the flood. And it wasn't until about nineteen ten
(17:31):
that Rice and Kirby go to d C and get
a matching grant. I think it was a million dollars.
If they raised a million in the government give a
mill and they had already done it, and the timber
and land interests and Clayton, who would do the I
think that's where Will Clayton comes from. Who would Who
(17:52):
was the cotton exchange? And this little plucky city, little
plucky town at that time says, Look, Galveston is at
the tip of the spirit and it's gonna get wiped out.
You can't keep building a city on sand. You've got
to build a city on a rock. And so we're
(18:14):
gonna have to. We're gonna dredge a deep water port
fifty miles inland. Never been done before, never been done since.
I mean we're talking Panama Canal level crazy. There's no
way you're gonna do this. Damned if they didn't. So
the city used to just keeps creeping up somewhere in
the seventies, the rest of America wakes up and says,
(18:35):
you've got a bunch of rich cowboys down there in
a real city and then urban cowboy in the now
they want w to and you get it all fiberglass
hood with air grabbing scoop mid the Michael Berry fucking
hood bensosmobile escaped from the ordinary. Come on side, come.
Speaker 1 (18:56):

Speaker 2 (19:38):
What else? Come on?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Pain?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Here we go, Here we go. I saw a picture.
If you haven't seen Kamala Harris Shine walking in and
sitting down next to Joe Biden the time, and Kamala
Harris has her lips pursed and Joe Biden pro move.
(20:01):
She's wearing thick sunglasses, wrap around sunglasses, so she could do,
you know, do a little side glance at Kamala without
having to move her head. And she never acknowledges that
Kamala is there. Oh, there is no joy left in
that campaign. And then compare that to President Trump visiting
(20:23):
the White House yesterday and there's Jill and Joe and
they got a big smile, and Trump's got a big smile,
and we're all having a heck of a good time.
It is the perfect joy and pain. And that song
is the great accompaniment. I think that song must have
come out around eighty nine or just before, because when
(20:45):
I first came to Houston, we didn't have clubs in Orange.
And I'm growing up Southern Baptist. I wasn't allowed to
go to clubs in Beaumont. So my buddy and I
when we got to Houston, we'd hop in the car
and we'd drive over to Richmond at six' ten and
(21:07):
in that center where there's an area club. Left, today
there's a mailbox, store there's a golf, galaxy there's A,
demosses there's A, ulta there's an office, depot but there
is no club any. Longer back in those, days there
(21:28):
was a club anchoring each, end and maybe a different.
One there are all different, Concepts SO i mean not
that you, would but you, could you, know for those
of you who had parents who went out to. Clubs
my parents didn't, drink but you could, Have like you
could have had your eighteen year eighteen year old club
one end where everything was what is that called not,
(21:49):
fluorescent where everything white, Glows and that was the time
it had to be hard on epileptics because you had
a lot of blinking, stuff and then you had the
globe stuff that would make even the lint on your.
Shirt AND i never. FORGET i must have been In
houston for about four hours by the time it was,
(22:10):
midnight and we were at that, club And i've never
been out so late in my. Life and you couldn't
drink because it was an under twenty one. Club and
we walked in and the music was so damn. Loud
it was network BUT i can't remember exactly And, lagrange thank. You,
(22:31):
okay we're not On El cities. Anymore AND i Remember
Madonna's vogue was playing and there was some gay. Dude
nobody acted gay and. Orange this, was oh my, god
there's a big gay. Dude and he was out in
the middle or you, knew you didn't, Doubt and he
(22:53):
was out in the middle and he's doing that Goofy vogue.
Dance AND i guess what was good about that dance
is you didn't have to have somebody with. You you
could just get out there in the middle of the.
Stage but little did we, know naive as we, were
that the reason he was dancing so weird is because
(23:14):
he was. Exit so we're in this place for about
a minute when some cute girl strolls up to me
and she, says you, Will smacks go on some. Sex what? What? What?
What what are you offer? ME i know you're not
gonna trick me into one of Them Sherlock, holmes opiate.
(23:35):
Dens what are you talking?
Speaker 5 (23:36):
About?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Girl on some?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Acts seven? BUCKS i think it was seven. BUCKS i
remember thinking seven. Bucks that's my rent seven bucks for.
One it wasn't even a. Pill oh, yeah my, buddy did?
It he would try. Anything he would try, Anything AND
i asked him about, it and apparently they just gave
you a piece of paper and you stuck it to
(23:59):
Your do you know? That so that's a CRAZY i
don't know if that's still around he or, not but
apparently that was the. Deal, oh you wouldn't get me
to try a. THING i Thought i'd just die on the.
Spot no, idea AND i wasn't about. To all, Right
so back to the. Astrodome they're going to raise over
a billion. Dollars, now let me start with. This this
is what nobody wants to talk. About before you begin
(24:23):
a conversation of The, astrodome you have to realize you're
not going to remake the area around. There so for
those of you who think it would be a great
idea to spend whoever's money it, is, taxpayers state, government
federal government. Investors before you get too deep into, THIS
i want you to drive. Today go or don't do? It, yeah,

men and they're doing the constant little. STOMPING i even
like the roach. Killing uh you know those those boots
that curl all the way up and you pick your
nose with. IT i like that. Too and you got l.
TEMPO i mean me tempo and all. That so we
were gonna do that In. Houston what. Happened she blew
through a bunch of, cash and my Buddy Alan atkinson
(34:02):
bought it later and had to move into it and
live In and he lived in Bel air because he
got it for pennies on the dollar and ended up
getting rich off the. Deal all, Right so here Was
Bob lanier's quote About, reil if anybody had listened to. Him,
lanier a developer elected mayor Of houston for his anti
urban rail, stance said, Quote, First reil's supporters say it's
cheaper when you show it costs. More they say it's
(34:26):
faster when you show it. Slower they say it serves more,
writers when you show there are fewer. Writers they say
it brings economic, development when you show no economic. Development
they say it helps the. Image when you say you
don't want to spend that much money on. Image they
say it'll solve the pollution. Problem when you show it
(34:49):
won't help. Pollution they, say, finally it'll take. Time you'll.
See and that's where we. Are and let me tell
you what's going to. Happen so very they're gonna hate
me for.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
This this is.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
Why that's WHY i. CAN'T i don't accept invitations to
River oaks BECAUSE i can't go to nice things, anymore
Because i've trashed every one of these boondoggle. Projects and
there's always some billionaire's wife that chairs the, thing and
she's the nicest lady in the, world AND i have
nothing against, her BUT i can't be for dumb. Stuff
(35:19):
it's the same reason he's told her ten, times you
cannot open another boutique Called sweet And sassy or whatever
else and waste all my. Money every multimillionaire's wife wants
to open a boutique and waste all their. Money, well
this is just a bigger version of.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
That
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
The Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Earlier in this hearing, you said in your opening statement
that there is nothing more urgent than impeachment right now,
this is the most urgent thing we could possibly do. Well,
you know what, if you're a senior right now and
you can't afford your prescription drugs, that's more urgent than this.
If you're a manufacturer wanting to dominate the Western hemisphere
with the passage of the USMCA, that is more urgent.
(00:40):
If you're a farmer who wants to open markets so
that your family can survive and thrive, that is a
lot more urgent than this partisan process. If you're a
desperate family member watching someone succumb to addiction, solving the
opioid problem probably more urgent. Why is it that women
with the least likelihood of getting pregnant are the ones
(01:03):
most worried about having abortions? Nobody wants to impregnate you
if you look like a thought?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Is it safe to say that based off of your comments,
you're suggesting that these women at these abortion rallies are
ugly and overweight.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yes, what do you see to people who think.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
That those comments are offensive. You all get all worked
up that there's going to be some uncomfortable, chaotic moment
that I'll feel pressure from conservatives or Democrats or whomever.
I feel the judgment of history. I feel the weight
of that. I worry that when the history books are
written about this country going down, that my name is
going to be on the board of directors here.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And if this.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Country's going down, and if we're losing the dollar, I
am going down fighting. And I don't care if that
means fighting Republicans, Democrats, the uniparty, the leadership, the packs,
the lobbyists. I've had it, and I take no lecture
(02:36):
on asking patriotic Americans to weigh in and contribute to
this fight.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
From those who would.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Grovel and bend mee for the lobbyists and special interests
who own our leadership, who have followed foo all.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
You want, who have followed out this town.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
And have borrowed against the future of our future generations.
I'll be happy to fund my political operation through the
work of hard working Americans ten and twenty and thirty
dollars at a time. And you all keep showing up
at the lobbyist fundraisers and see how that goes.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
For the love of the love.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Matt Gates resigned from Congress yesterday to prepare for his
nomination to be the Attorney General of the United States
of America. I feel like I'm pretty well tied in
(03:55):
to the Trump administration, and I did not hear from
one person that Gates was under consideration. I had no idea.
I didn't see that coming, and my sources did not
see that coming. There was initially quite a bit of
(04:19):
interest in Ken Paxton. There had been a lot of
talk about Kin Paxton, of course the attorney general in
the state of Texas as attorney general. Was my understanding
that it's not my understanding. No, for fact, Trump had
privately told some people that he would like Paxton in
(04:40):
that position. That doesn't mean necessarily he was going to
do it. Oftentimes folks will flow to trial balloon, and
I think Trump, I think this is the business side
of him. He will as he's as an idea is
terminating his head, He'll just kind of sprinkle it in
(05:04):
there and see what kind of reaction he gets. Now,
my understanding was that Cornyn Well, I can't say this
to my understanding, it had been said by several folks
(05:25):
that Cornyan was actually supporting Paxton for US Attorney General.
Because Paxton is it is it is expected that Paxton's
going to challenge Cornyn for reelection. Cornyan, of course, as
you know, was defeated yesterday in the Wednesday morning back
(05:53):
room deal that put John Thune in as Senate Majority leader.
They made a show of pretending that Rick Scott had
a shot so that the grassroots would feel like something
had been done and they'd been listened to, But they weren't.
That was all a show and that was never going
(06:13):
to happen. That was never real. And in fact, I
think many of the people who claimed they were supporting
Rick Scott, in fact some of them who were switching
over the last minute to support Rick Scott when they
weren't already and all of a sudden, I'm supporting Rick Scott.
So you weren't supporting Scott when it was open, and
now you're supporting Scott when it's clear he can't win.
(06:35):
So they supported Scott on the first ballot and then
oh he's out. All right, we're down to the final two.
I guess I'll go back to the guy I told
you two days ago, I was going to endorse that
whole thing is a charade, a sham. So you've got
Thune as majority leader and Cornyn without a leadership position.
(06:58):
Cornyan was immediate in his public statement that he would
be running for reelection in twenty twenty six. That is
I mean, we're talking about a primary that is three
four months, sixteen months away. That's not so long away.
(07:20):
The the spring primary in Texas, which will be March
of twenty twenty six. Ramon side for that math for
me real quick. So what are we in right now?
We're almost in December. So November, December, January, February, March
four plus sixteen months away. That's not right, December January, February, Yeah,
(07:44):
it is. M So he will he will. That means
John Wayne mccornyan. I will wait on that will be
uh all of a sudden, mister d C is going
to be showing up in Lufkin. There You'll be just
(08:07):
minding your own business in Lubbock, and there he'll be more.
How many cities can you name it start with an
L in Texas. I got Lubbock, I got Lufkin, I
got Laredo. Well you got League City. I see, that's
that's we're very different. I wouldn't have thought of League
City right off League City, Lafayette. That's East Texas. That's
(08:32):
East Texas right there. Yeah. So so I said to
my wife last night, she said, well, what do you think.
We don't normally talk politics, but she said, what do
you think about Matt Gates? I said, I love the
wrecking ball approach. I just worry. I don't you know,
Gates is kind of a wild card. I don't want
him to do something embarrassed administration and cause problems. And
what I said, he can fire him if he's okay,
(08:53):
that's a good point. Lampass is good call.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Wow, Michael Barry, look at you.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Oh man, we forgot Lamark. Jim said, Livings.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Extreme plays a back again extreme plays.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I didn't know that's the best you got. I have
a thing that the Windows came an extreamways out in
the pantheon of great English literature, Herman Melville's Moby Dick
now ranks as perhaps the great American novel. It was
(10:21):
written on this day in eighteen fifty one, little known today,
kind of in that kind of kind in that bag
of facts like George Washington died not knowing about dinosaurs,
because it was two or three years after he died
that the existence of dinosaurs, the entire concept of dinosaurs
(10:47):
was unknown, And then dinosaurs are discovered, and little boys
ever since I had happy childhoods to think that there's
George Washington laying on his death better and you walk in,
you go so Cornosaurus rex or velociraptor, and he would say,
(11:08):
what are you talking about? And then you have to go.
You don't have enough time to explain it. You're not
going to know who Steven Spielberg was, none of it.
H Rest your weary eyes, soldier. Your race is run. Well,
it wasn't until I'm going to say nineteen ten. It
(11:30):
might have been nineteen o eight. It might have been
nineteen twelve. I tend to think of dates some distance
from a round number. It's a weird way I do things.
But a professor rediscovered, or a professor sort of reintroduced
this novel and made the case that this is the
(11:53):
great epic American novel. And suddenly that idea began to
spread and across campuses, and then it became the case
within a decade that you were not a learned American
if you had not read this distinctly American piece of literature,
(12:15):
what you take for granted now right, call me Ishmael,
Gregory Peck. I mean, it's so much a part of
the culture. But that was all manufactured sixty years after
it was written. Melville didn't make any money on that.
If you met Herman Melville in eighteen eighty one, eighteen
ninety one, probably nineteen oh one, he hadn't seen the
(12:35):
money that book would make. He was not revered, at
least not for that piece the way he later would be.
And I say all that to say that, to say
this dumbass Ramon, I asked to find to come out
of the break with something directly or indirectly, because even
if it's indirect some of you will figure it out.
(12:57):
Something that would reflect the monumental statuesque epic play that
Moby Dick Hole No No Wrong holds in in in
the pantheon of American literature culture. Okay, Ramond is, okay,
(13:18):
you you're gonna redeem yourself. Oh Lord Rameela says he
has a reading from Moby Dick. Okay, you want to
put some music, Oh, you have music okay, all right,
go ahead, do you do you?
Speaker 4 (13:32):
And now? Ramon Roeblist Jr. Reads famous works of literature
this episode, Moby Dick. She quietly crept into his room.
What are you doing? Moby said, I'm gonna make a
man out of you, sailor.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
But lady Starbuck, you're my fiance's best friend. Hush now,
lay back and let this white wall. Oh wait a minute,
Moby's Oh, I grabbed the wrong book.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
This has been Ramon Junior reading famous works of literature.
Stream again Extreme Place.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Somebody tuned into the show for the first time ever today,
Maybe by accident. Maybe the astros were on last night.
Maybe they were trying to get to the Vietnamese channel
help me, Extreme Places. Maybe they were looking for something
(14:52):
else and they ended up and that's what they heard.
You was like, ID, you're that guy on the radio
Michael Berry and Michael Berry Show. Uh wait a second.
They do blue stuff, weren't they. No, not that I
(15:12):
know of them. Yeah, I think that's when I turned
in one day and they had a whole Yeah it
was I had to change the dial. All right, Well,
we have to talk about the astrodome. We have to
talk about the astrodome because they're at it again. And
(15:36):
wouldn't you know at the local news stations are cheerleading
for it. They only have to raise a billion and
a half dollars and we'll have something nice. The astronome
will be nice. It really is sad. It's embarrassing to watch.
It really is embarrassing to watch. It is the last
(16:00):
gasp of people who still view the city of Houston
in the image they dreamed of in the nineteen eighties.
See Houston crept up on America. It wasn't like the
other major cities. You had New York, which was the
(16:22):
great American city and emerged into the great World city,
and they're all New York. It comes out of the
coaching tree of London and Paris and Rome. And then
you had Chicago, which is this sort of manufactured city
(16:44):
that is the capital of the Midwest. And then you
have the westward expansion and the very late development of
Los Angeles that's built on the pretty city in a
pretty place with pretty people, and it was the city
of the arts and of course film. And then you
(17:06):
have this place that during all of that, including the
rise of Los Angeles, you have this literal swamp down
in Texas, the Great America, the Great Texas City was
not Houston. It was Galveston. But you have the fire
and the flood. And it wasn't until about nineteen ten
(17:31):
that Rice and Kirby go to d C and get
a matching grant. I think it was a million dollars.
If they raised a million in the government give a
mill and they had already done it, and the timber
and land interests and Clayton, who would do the I
think that's where Will Clayton comes from. Who would Who
(17:52):
was the cotton exchange? And this little plucky city, little
plucky town at that time says, Look, Galveston is at
the tip of the spirit and it's gonna get wiped out.
You can't keep building a city on sand. You've got
to build a city on a rock. And so we're
(18:14):
gonna have to. We're gonna dredge a deep water port
fifty miles inland. Never been done before, never been done since.
I mean we're talking Panama Canal level crazy. There's no
way you're gonna do this. Damned if they didn't. So
the city used to just keeps creeping up somewhere in
the seventies, the rest of America wakes up and says,
(18:35):
you've got a bunch of rich cowboys down there in
a real city and then urban cowboy in the now
they want w to and you get it all fiberglass
hood with air grabbing scoop mid the Michael Berry fucking
hood bensosmobile escaped from the ordinary. Come on side, come.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
On, come on, here we go?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
On?
Speaker 2 (18:59):
What else? What else?
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Here we go, shine, come on, come on, here me
go paint sun shine, Yes, and b get me to
rob fas well.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
I'm a new kid.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I'm just coming up. A lot of Baptis think that I.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Can't tear it up.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
Will I'm gonna show.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Them and ignore them.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
And when they think I ain't looking at form, I.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Mean take them out. I keep grooving a snack basedlinekeep
the beat moving.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
They can't take it.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
They just baked.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
They want to how the raw backs naked I get killed?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
You know to tell, because this is how.
Speaker 2 (19:31):

Speaker 1 (19:36):
Now, sun shine?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
What else? Come on?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Pain?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Here we go, Here we go. I saw a picture.
If you haven't seen Kamala Harris Shine walking in and
sitting down next to Joe Biden the time, and Kamala
Harris has her lips pursed and Joe Biden pro move.
(20:01):
She's wearing thick sunglasses, wrap around sunglasses, so she could do,
you know, do a little side glance at Kamala without
having to move her head. And she never acknowledges that
Kamala is there. Oh, there is no joy left in
that campaign. And then compare that to President Trump visiting
(20:23):
the White House yesterday and there's Jill and Joe and
they got a big smile, and Trump's got a big smile,
and we're all having a heck of a good time.
It is the perfect joy and pain. And that song
is the great accompaniment. I think that song must have
come out around eighty nine or just before, because when
(20:45):
I first came to Houston, we didn't have clubs in Orange.
And I'm growing up Southern Baptist. I wasn't allowed to
go to clubs in Beaumont. So my buddy and I
when we got to Houston, we'd hop in the car
and we'd drive over to Richmond at six' ten and
(21:07):
in that center where there's an area club. Left, today
there's a mailbox, store there's a golf, galaxy there's A,
demosses there's A, ulta there's an office, depot but there
is no club any. Longer back in those, days there
(21:28):
was a club anchoring each, end and maybe a different.
One there are all different, Concepts SO i mean not
that you, would but you, could you, know for those
of you who had parents who went out to. Clubs
my parents didn't, drink but you could, Have like you
could have had your eighteen year eighteen year old club
one end where everything was what is that called not,
(21:49):
fluorescent where everything white, Glows and that was the time
it had to be hard on epileptics because you had
a lot of blinking, stuff and then you had the
globe stuff that would make even the lint on your.
Shirt AND i never. FORGET i must have been In
houston for about four hours by the time it was,
(22:10):
midnight and we were at that, club And i've never
been out so late in my. Life and you couldn't
drink because it was an under twenty one. Club and
we walked in and the music was so damn. Loud
it was network BUT i can't remember exactly And, lagrange thank. You,
(22:31):
okay we're not On El cities. Anymore AND i Remember
Madonna's vogue was playing and there was some gay. Dude
nobody acted gay and. Orange this, was oh my, god
there's a big gay. Dude and he was out in
the middle or you, knew you didn't, Doubt and he
(22:53):
was out in the middle and he's doing that Goofy vogue.
Dance AND i guess what was good about that dance
is you didn't have to have somebody with. You you
could just get out there in the middle of the.
Stage but little did we, know naive as we, were
that the reason he was dancing so weird is because
(23:14):
he was. Exit so we're in this place for about
a minute when some cute girl strolls up to me
and she, says you, Will smacks go on some. Sex what? What? What?
What what are you offer? ME i know you're not
gonna trick me into one of Them Sherlock, holmes opiate.
(23:35):
Dens what are you talking?
Speaker 5 (23:36):
About?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Girl on some?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Acts seven? BUCKS i think it was seven. BUCKS i
remember thinking seven. Bucks that's my rent seven bucks for.
One it wasn't even a. Pill oh, yeah my, buddy did?
It he would try. Anything he would try, Anything AND
i asked him about, it and apparently they just gave
you a piece of paper and you stuck it to
(23:59):
Your do you know? That so that's a CRAZY i
don't know if that's still around he or, not but
apparently that was the. Deal, oh you wouldn't get me
to try a. THING i Thought i'd just die on the.
Spot no, idea AND i wasn't about. To all, Right
so back to the. Astrodome they're going to raise over
a billion. Dollars, now let me start with. This this
is what nobody wants to talk. About before you begin
(24:23):
a conversation of The, astrodome you have to realize you're
not going to remake the area around. There so for
those of you who think it would be a great
idea to spend whoever's money it, is, taxpayers state, government
federal government. Investors before you get too deep into, THIS
i want you to drive. Today go or don't do? It, yeah,
(24:48):
