Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time. Time, time, time, luck and load until
Michael Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
And now a totally random week in review from the past.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Take a guess when this was to all beef patties,
special sauce, let us, cheese, pickles, onions on sesme I
probably haven't heard that in forty years. To all beef patties,
special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed.
Let me tell you something. The Berry family, we're not
good at a lot of things. We will put down
some fast food in this household we do. Somewhere is
(00:47):
some devorce, say at the bar and some guys going,
can I buy you a drink? Have you know I'm
helped viral?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Okay? Mistress A no? The song of our that's about me?
Oh and your name is met have some stubborn? Inflation
continues to be a thworn in the side of the
US economy.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
New data showing consumer prices rows three point four percent.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
Americans are still feeling the pinch when it comes to food,
especially when dining out.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
What are you paying for basic commodities? You know better
than people on national news who often don't know and
some of them do know and lie to you because
they so desperately want Biden to be doing a good job.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
If you're a small business looking to grow and market
on Facebook, it can seem a little overwhelming at first.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Local businesses using Facebook. Just because you have a business
and some people are on social media does not mean
you need to try to promote your Nobody's sitting at
home and going. I wonder what the Propane and Wealth
Service Company has to say it and it's always boring. CG.
Welcome to the program.
Speaker 6 (01:56):
I guess I drive maybe five six days a week,
just part time.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I'm going to say I'm just a part time driver.
Let's see if you can tell me a three phrases
or word pronunciations of JT that I liked the most,
or something like that, like at like that is correctly
like just to make a little lectu income do it again,
just something like that, just to make a little extra
like that. I want to do a regular feature with JT.
(02:31):
Did you guess when? That might have been? May seventeenth.
That was our week in review on Friday, May seventeenth.
I like the way. If JT is out there, call
us seven one, three, nine, nine nine, one thousand. We
(02:52):
just want to see what you've been up to since
May seventeenth when we had you on that week. It's
something like that. I like the way he said like
yet he said it, like yet? What the hell is
going on? Popo? Looking for five men who tried to
rob an armored truck at gunpoint as he serviced an
(03:13):
ATM in Sunnyside. So there's so many questions I have.
First of all, who's still trying to jack an armored truck?
Somebody's watching too many movies? Number two? How are y'all
gonna have a shootout and nobody got hit? You watching
(03:34):
too many movies and too little time at the range?
How are you? You got five of them? Right? So
you figure you got pretty close to him? Because I mean,
if you just from a distance and you O, guys,
I just don't have the heart for this. Let's let's
go find a real job. Turn around. That's not a
that's not an attempted robbery of an armored truck driver.
(03:59):
You had to get close enough and five of you
and there's a shootout. Play that story if you would. KPRCTV.
Speaker 7 (04:08):
The armed guard came to service this ATM police say
when surveillance video captured those men waiting in one of
these parking spots emerge with their guns drawn. It's eerie
to watch this Brinks armed guard doing his job. Just
before three thirty Tuesday afternoon, when this white car full
of men with guns pulls forward and the doors fling open.
A confrontation at the ATM. The guard runs.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Three wind thirty seconds. We get the color of the car,
but that's really the only color we're going to be
allowed in this story. Play that again.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
These parking spots emerge with their guns drawn. It's eerie
to watch this Brinks armed guard doing his job. Just
before three thirty Tuesday afternoon, when this white car full
of men with guns pulls forward and the doors fling open.
A confrontation at the ATM. The guard runs for cover.
A shootout, then the suspects slip and scramble before taking off.
(05:01):
It happened in this strip Mall parking lot sky Too
showing the police response, including the FBI's Bank Robbery Task
Force as we went live for the five PM news.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
One of the.
Speaker 7 (05:11):
Suspects gets into a getaway car and takes off, while
the other three or four suspects then run into this
parking lot. There's like a Domino's pizza in that strip
mall and some other businesses, and according to police, they
then carjack a woman, possibly at gunpoint. That woman was
on her lunch break and heard the gunfire, according to
her coworker, who says she tried to drive away, but
the suspects rushed toward her, pointed a gun, pulled her
(05:33):
from the car and took off, leaving her emotional and
shaken up.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It is very concerning that they ran from this scene
carjack a woman, put her in danger, and then fled.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
Surveillance video showed the white car leaving. One of the
guys runs away, captured on another camera falling to the ground.
Police found the getaway and stolen cars at a dead
end nearby, with no sign of the armed men. And
after all that, we still don't know if any of
them got away with any money.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
A very dangerous situation for the guard and for any
citizens in the areas. Or we're very fortunate today that
nobody was struck by anything gunfire.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
We know the make and model of the car, it's
a Chevrolet in Paula. I don't know why they're going
to give us any of those details. And we know
the color of the Chevy in Paula, and we know
the sex of the five individuals, and we know the
(06:31):
sex of the armored truck driver, and we know the
sex of the woman that they carjacked, but you're afraid
to tell us their skin color. I have my suspicions.
Why can't we know the skin color that might help us?
Speaker 8 (06:52):
You know, and the media is the worst. They won't
mention rays during certain suspect descriptions. That's how politically correc
we are as a country. I was reading in the
New York Daily News the description of a rape suspect,
and they didn't mention the guy's race. Now, once you're caught,
I don't care what you look like. But if we're
still looking for you, how about you mention all pertinent
(07:14):
information so we know who to avoid on the elevator.
Not that I'm the rape target, but I think you
understand this was the politically correct description they gave. They
said the young man was in his twenties, approximately five
't nine, one hundred and eighty five pounds, and was
wearing a red sweatshirt. Uh, you want to cut the
(07:37):
hunt in half red sweatshirt. Really, why would you mention
the thing he can change but not the race which
he can't. What do you think he's gonna leave the
sweatshirt on until the manhunt is over? All his friends
are telling you might want to take that sweatshirt off.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
No, no, I.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
Commit all the rapes in this.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
That's my lucky sweatshirt. Whites are the majority race. So
if the fellas were white, tell us they're white, and
then we don't go looking for Hispanics and Blacks and
Arabs and Indians and Chinamen. They're probably white. Ramon. Probably
(08:23):
five white dudes over in Sunnyside, just blending in in Sunnyside,
just middle of the day, three point thirty at ninety
four fifty one Coling Boulevard, pulling up on a armored
truck driver. Five of them can't hit, not one of
(08:45):
them can connect, and they screwed that up. Yeah, probably
five white dudes, probably.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Like a fair.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Good morning, Captain.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Good morning, Captain, good morning, Captain, good morning, Captain, good morning,
good morning, and Captain the morn out and they wake
up the sunshine and share this rad good morn in Captain.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
It's morning.
Speaker 10 (09:29):
So we see because we're.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Harpie see and you go.
Speaker 9 (09:34):
Downtown's free.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Everybody's saying good morning.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 8 (09:46):
Captain, good morning, Captain, good money, Thank God the sunshine.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
Share this friendly.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
I got early on set, Joe Biden. I got an
email this morning from a guy who says, it being
Wednesday morning, bet you weren't expecting a duet of Frosty
the Snowman with Share and Captain Kangaroo. And it was
an episode of Captain Kangaroo when Shaer was on and
(10:29):
they do Frosty the Snowman. And then he said, how
come you don't do Captain Kangaroo on Wednesday mornings anymore?
And it hit me, hmm, we didn't do Captain Kangaroo.
In fact, we hadn't done Captain Kangaroo in a while.
So I asked Ramon and his answer was, oh, we
(10:50):
had the election and everything. You just executive decision was
not gonna do Captain Kangaroo because we got the election everything. Yeah,
it is time to Joe. You got to keep some things.
That's our Sonic branding. Do you see this story. Scientists
have discovered what at this point is believed to be
(11:14):
the world's largest bed sheet, the world's largest bedsheet. That's
all we have right now, but we'll have more on
this story as it unfolds. Two whales were on their
(11:36):
way home from a bar. The first whale.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Says you, you.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
You, and his friend says, shut up, Colin, you're drunk.
This year for Christmas, I'm only gonna to give pictures
of things as presents instead of the real thing. I
call it gift giving. Laura writes, Zara, here's your doom break.
(12:16):
One day, when you need a break from politics, maybe
you could have people call in about things they have won.
I would love to hear this. I'll start I like
Laura already. When I was five or six, my mom
entered me into a contest called the Northern Kids Contest.
(12:39):
Northern Toilet Tissue was looking for a kid to be
one of the faces on the wrapper. My mom sent
in my picture and we got a letter saying I
was a finalist. A few weeks later, we received word
that I was the grand prize winner. How much you
(13:01):
think she got for that? Five thousand dollars? How'd you
know that? That's weird? She wasn't supposed to get five thousand. Yeah,
she got five thousand dollars and my face was in
the wrapper. Kindness regards Laura. Their email address is bo
and Laura Richard. I couldn't have a Michael in Nundit
(13:25):
to Bury email address because I cuss people out and
some of the things I write, I wouldn't want, you know,
I wouldn't want somebody to wonder does his wife kiss
those kids? With that mouth? They should know if it
if it comes from me, it should come for me.
So I would like to hear from you if you
ever won anything, like really won something, it's got to
(13:50):
have a value of you know, let's say at least
one thousand dollars, preferably more a new car. There was
a guy. There was a guy named h Shoot had
his name. He had just come into Oh, it was
on top of my tongue.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
He was.
Speaker 9 (14:13):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
He was ahead of Texas Commerce Bank Alan god Leah Buckwalter.
Alan Buckwalter had just come into town, and I mean
just come into town to take over TCB. And I
think at that point TCB Texas Commerce Bank, Ben Love's
Bank was about to be bought out by Chemical. I
(14:39):
think it ended up well, you know what happened, and
he played I think it was river Oaks Country Club.
He played a golf tournament, and I think if you
hit a hole in one, there was something that you
had to do, and he did it just a flute
and he won. If I remember correctly, it was a
bright red cat I mean land yacht Cadillac ramone convertible
(15:05):
with the biggest set of longhorns on the front of
this name and he catted around town in it. And
it was the funniest thing because of all the people
that didn't need to win a new Cadillac, he could
have bought one. This guy was ahead of Texas commerce. Bang,
but he did he Uh, he did seven one thousand. Jesse,
(15:30):
you're on the Michael Berry Show, Go ahead, sir.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (15:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well, one time I was thinking Friscoll, Texas and where
the actuals have a minor league team, and uh, this
was back when Carlos Carrera was recovering from an injury,
and uh we uh, we went to go watching a
minor league game. The guy that we went to visit
over there at Frisco lived right across the street at
(15:55):
some apartments. Uh, and it was a beautiful area town
and we went to go watch the Astuals minor league team,
and well, you know how they have that uh that
raffle they do whatever, like you enter in and at
the end of the day, they get half and you
get half. I hit that. I was on my way
(16:16):
to take my son. He was little at the time.
He's twenty now, but I was on my way to
take them to go pee because kids always got pee.
And I told my said, look to fix and do
the drawing, and he said, we'll check it.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
We'll get out.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
You're gonna win anyway, dad, And we went in the
restroom and I'll be done on the way out. We
didn't check and we won that thing.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
How much.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
It was like thirty some hundred. It was like three
thousand and something, and they split it with me and
my wife got to check and spend it.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
And what do they do with the other half. I'm
always worried about that.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
I think they donated to some kind of charity or something.
I don't know what it was, you think, but I've
always and we've been to some sport game where it's
like twenty thirty thousand. I never hit nothing like that, but.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Oh, I've seen it get up. I guess it was
a Texans game. I've seen it get over seventy thousand
because you got a big crowd.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
In that Wow.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
But I bet you, yeah, that thing is always over
thirty thousand because they push it pretty hard. They definitely
push that thing pretty hard. But you think about eighty
one home games. If you did fifteen thousand, if they
kept fifteen thousand, that's a million. It's a one point
two million right there. And I bet you they do
it more than that. I bet you they do a
(17:34):
million and a half on that thing.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
Yeah, that's how I think too much. I always think
numbers will still they still will.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Sigman. You know I'm going to tell you this and nobody.
You don't win any friends for this. I think Regman's
too expensive at this point. And I'm going to say
exactly what I said when they let Correa go and
everybody said, you're an idiot. Correa is part of this team.
You only know what you know. You don't know what
you don't know. And what did we do. We found
(18:05):
Paanya for pennies on the dollar, and you didn't lose.
You didn't lose any offensive production. I think is at
least as good defensively and Korea. While he's the nicest
human being in the world. I want to be clear
about this. He is a super super solid human being.
But Correa had a bad back and that ended up
(18:29):
being a good move. By the way, Uh, we're gonna
all go see Mac at eleven starting at eleven o'clock
on Friday. I'll give you the details coming up doing
a great job and memorial.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
Pastelry, my diversity, a firm jaws.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
All right, if you want something we want to hear
from minutes, let's start. Why is one guy's name something? Andrew?
You couldn't hear him. You think it's a double name.
Oh you get you think he gave you both names?
(19:06):
That always Okay, let's start with Denise. Denise, you're on
the Michael Berry Show. What did you win?
Speaker 10 (19:14):
I won in a raffle, an Australian dingo dog from
the Waco Zoo back in the early seventies.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Oh those are cool?
Speaker 9 (19:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
How did that turn out?
Speaker 7 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (19:30):
It turned out great. But after about a year and
a half to two years, Patrick, because I want him
on Saint Patrick's Day, he went to live on a
ranch where he could have a lot more rin to run.
But I have a trainer that works with my dog now, and.
Speaker 9 (19:45):
She used to work for the Easton Zoo and.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
She told me that zoos don't normally rapple up exotic him,
so I don't think that would happen today.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
That's too bad. That's too bad. Denise. Would you like
to play an episode of You Can't Lose?
Speaker 10 (20:05):
No, not right now, but thank you for asking, and
thank you for your show, and thanks for ramone mentioning
so to weight loss.
Speaker 3 (20:12):

Speaker 6 (21:10):
Go ahead, Sir, won an eighty thousand dollars bay boat
and a CCA raffle back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You want to what.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
About an eighty thousand dollars bay boat?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Oh bay boat? Okay, what brand? HAINI wow? And how
much did you did you? Did you pay for the raffle?
Speaker 6 (21:38):
So it was one hundred bucks for the raffle ticket.
After that huge celebration and all of the excitement, a
couple of days later they make you aware that you
have to pay sales tax on the item before you
can come picket up. So you know you got that,
and then they ten ninety nine you hit your personal
taxes as a gift. All in all, the raffle ticket
(22:00):
with one hundred bucks and I was probably ten to
twelve grand. Uh you know by the time the year
was out for about a seventy five eighty thousand dollars
boat still have it?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Well that's the government's fault, not CCA's fault. But I
mean I'd do that all day long.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
Hey, can I can I can I do a quick
proud parent shout out?
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Uh huh are you a c member?
Speaker 6 (22:25):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Do you do all their stuff? I got an email
the other day. Do you know the executive director?
Speaker 9 (22:33):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (22:33):
Yeah, I get his emails all the time. Yeah, I
can't call his name off hand. I can't like, wait, wait, wait, way,
Lapierre comes to mind, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
I know what you think. So I get an email says, hey,
I'm Rocky Balboa. What I can't remember his name exactly,
but I'm the executive director of the CCA, and we
would like to be a sponsor of your show. And
I sent back and I was driving and I said,
that's the best news ever. I think it's a wonderful organization.
(23:10):
We've got a lot of listeners who are or would
be members of the CCA. I've had a lot of
friends who were involved with that. Levi Good always did
stuff with him. Buddy of mine named Steve Frounterhouse, who
I don't know if he still does, but he used
to run the Houstonian Complex for Gay Rohn. You know,
(23:31):
the the Houstonian Club and the hotel, and I think
they had a golf course at one point. But anyway,
he's a big I don't know if it's Tarpain or Tarpau,
and he's a big Tarpaun fisherman. Are you familiar with.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
This Robbie Byers, Robbie Byers, Yes, that's it.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Robbie Byers that's exactly right. I said, Rocky by Ball
because I knew it was an RB. Yeah, Robbie Byers, Yeah,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
Yeah, they do good work. CCA does a lot of
an artificial brief project. They really do good work. You know,
there's always controversy with a nonprofit and especially conservation, but
you know, for the most part, eighty five percent of
these guys, they actually their hearts in it. They do
good work. Their banquets are legit. You know, the money
(24:17):
is spent, you know, as far as I can tell,
the money is spent, you know, accordingly towards conservation. There's
always high paid executives no matter what you're doing. But
they really do.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
We see them.
Speaker 6 (24:31):
We see them in the base systems actually, you know,
the fruits of their labor.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
What's your proud parent moment?
Speaker 6 (24:38):
So my fifteen year old is a BRONC rider and
he qualified for Vegas in his rookie year. We just
got back about five days ago. He went up there
way outside of his pay grade. I'd have been a
proud daddy if he rode one of those horses. He
covered every single one of those horses, made the finals,
and came back eighth in the world in his bare
(24:59):
back riding, the only rookie to do it this year. Wow,
I cried, Michael, I cried.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
You know, I ain't mad at you for that. That's
something to be proud of. Brother. How did he get
into that? Did you do that?
Speaker 4 (25:14):
I did?
Speaker 6 (25:14):
I was terrible at it. My dad was a much
better bronk rider than I was in the seventies. I
did a Facebook post. We have a pair of chaps,
my son Rode. Three generations of ives have worn those
chaps in rodeo.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
My brother we used to go to the tin top
my brother Rode. I never I had no interest in it.
That's a great.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
Story, Michael Barry, you.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
Are to ring the King's English.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
David Momsy sends me morning and report on Camp Hope
and who's given what, who's donating their time, who's done something?
When we have a great veteran recovery story. Czar, I'm
sitting in a meeting room in sugar Land this morning
about to speak to the Exchange Club of sugar Land.
(26:10):
It's always an honor the opportunity to share our mission
with the community. This morning, I'm sharing a list of
items that have been donated to Hope. I know you
like that sort of thing. As you will see, these
are completely random items. We never know what will come
in the door every day, but somehow our team makes
it work. We take care of the veterans as the
(26:32):
veterans take care of each other. You want the list
of items from Ang that came in the door. Orange juice,
two bottles, nineteen toothbrush clit kits not clits that include toothbrush,
floss and toothpaste. Clothes, three turkeys, sweatshirts, sweatpants, jeans, socks, shoes, underwear, backpacks,
(26:55):
cleaning products, pillows, equine therapy, two lightly used tires. This
feels like that scene in Austin Powers when they're doing
the intake, or maybe he's getting out eighty baseball caps
with Camp Hope logo. Four rolls of five x eight
(27:19):
AstroTurf valued three hundred dollars, men's clothing, general food and
paper goods. There you have it. Let's go to Diana. Diana,
what did you win?
Speaker 9 (27:35):
Good Mornings are? In nineteen eighty seven, I won the
Sacks Fifth Avenue Mother of the Year.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Oh and where did you win for that?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
And it was my son who submitted that I had
no clue, but I won a total remake and an outfit.
And my brother was getting married that summer, so I
wore the outfit to my brother's wedding in Saint Louis,
And it was a total surprise to me when I
got the call that I was the winner.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
How old was your son when he submitted this?
Speaker 9 (28:09):
He was five? Michael and his dad heard about the contest,
and my son h was an artist and he is
he is. That's what he does professionally. He is a
graphic designer. Uh, top notch.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
But does he have his own shop?
Speaker 9 (28:29):
No, he doesn't.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Does he do a little little work?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
I wish he did?
Speaker 9 (28:33):
I wish he did. He worked for CD Richard Ellis
Big boys.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Okay, all right? And how old is he now?
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (28:42):
But he does he does. He does free lance work.
But anyway, where are you from him? About the contest?
Originally Puerto Rico?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Okay, I was trying to detect your accent. Okay, you've
got the I know you don't think you did. You
have like a point one percent accent that just barely
barely creeps through.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
And you're sure it's not after almost fifty years.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
Of living in Texas and positive.
Speaker 9 (29:16):
Okay, Well, anyway, his dad told him about it. He
drew a picture of me and I think if I
were at home, I would be able to go to
my file of me more memories, Yeah, and pull out
the picture he submitted of me, and almost to the instagree.
Then his dad said, and he interviewed Jordan on his own.
(29:38):
I had no idea this was going on. And he said,
what do you love about your mom?
Speaker 4 (29:44):
What do you like this she.
Speaker 9 (29:45):
Does for you? And that's how they compiled the letter
that they sent to saxophonts Avenue and the picture and
that one that wonderful experience for me. I'll never forget it.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Are you still with his dad?
Speaker 9 (29:59):
No?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Are you remarried?
Speaker 6 (30:02):
No?
Speaker 9 (30:03):
Never have?
Speaker 3 (30:04):
What do you do?
Speaker 9 (30:07):
I have a coaching executive coaching company, Aspire Executive Coaching.
And I mentioned it because I every Tuesday I work
with the veterans at Camp Hope, the ones that are
in yellow face about ready to graduate.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Have you emailed me before, Yes, sir, I have. Okay,
they Aspire Executive Coaching sounds familiar. Yes, what kind of
people do you coach?
Speaker 9 (30:40):
Well? Essentially my Penn State certified as a coach who
deals with the business behavior.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Don't get nervous on me now that.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
What's that?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
I said? Don't get nervous on me now.
Speaker 9 (31:00):
Oh I'm not try to process some things.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Okay. So, like, you don't have to give me the name,
give me the demographics of some people you coach. Are
they a small business owner? Is it Dan Pastorini? Is
it Ramone? Is it Ed Young? Is it Jim mckinveiale.
Is it John Whitmeyer? Is it Clinton Cannon? Is it
(31:26):
Jim Crane?
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Like?
Speaker 3 (31:27):
What do these people do?
Speaker 9 (31:30):
It could be all of the above. I deal with
the individual, and I deal with if a company an
organization have someone who brings something special to the table,
but they are unable to play nice in the sandbox
with either their peers, their direct reports, or are even
(31:52):
presenting a problem with external customers and clients and that
sort of thing. They will bring me in because they
will whatever that person brings to the table is important
to them, but they need to know how to.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Yeah, good, What percentage of your clients are you paid
by the company rather than the individual?
Speaker 9 (32:15):
Probably about ninety five percent.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Okay, Now this makes sense. I always wondered because there's
all these executive coaches out there. You see them all
over social media because they're promoting themselves as you have
to do. And I thought, who are all these people
being coached? Because somebody's got to pay for that. But
if a company doesn't have the structure or the bandwidth
to train their sellers or their HR director or their
(32:40):
receptionist or their landman for that matter, I could see
basically outsourcing to somebody that has experience with that, and
it may be instead of having a direct report that
trains them that. Now this makes sense, Diana, Now it
makes sense. This has bothered me for a while. I
can kind of put this to rest. Did you ever
(33:01):
wonder about that? Like who are all these people paying
to be coached? Like how can they afford it? But
a company needing to fill the gap of what they
don't have the expertise or bandwidth uh to do? Okay,
that makes sense. Yeah, now that helps Dana.
Speaker 9 (33:19):
And when someone does hire me privately, Michael, it's because
they know that they are not moving forward in their
career like they should have, and a lot of times
it's because of their behavior.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
No, you cannot have her number one though. The reason
you don't move forward in your career, is you're lazy.
I won the top Pop competition in Orange for the
Orange Leader and wrote I wrote into the Orange Leader.
They had a competition about my dad being the top
pop and he got a three hundred dollars gift card
(33:55):
to Palais Royal and I got one hundred and fifty
dollars safe avings bond that I couldn't redeem for like
thirty years.
It's that time. Time, time, time, luck and load until
Michael Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
And now a totally random week in review from the past.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Take a guess when this was to all beef patties,
special sauce, let us, cheese, pickles, onions on sesme I
probably haven't heard that in forty years. To all beef patties,
special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed.
Let me tell you something. The Berry family, we're not
good at a lot of things. We will put down
some fast food in this household we do. Somewhere is
(00:47):
some devorce, say at the bar and some guys going,
can I buy you a drink? Have you know I'm
helped viral?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Okay? Mistress A no? The song of our that's about me?
Oh and your name is met have some stubborn? Inflation
continues to be a thworn in the side of the
US economy.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
New data showing consumer prices rows three point four percent.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
Americans are still feeling the pinch when it comes to food,
especially when dining out.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
What are you paying for basic commodities? You know better
than people on national news who often don't know and
some of them do know and lie to you because
they so desperately want Biden to be doing a good job.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
If you're a small business looking to grow and market
on Facebook, it can seem a little overwhelming at first.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Local businesses using Facebook. Just because you have a business
and some people are on social media does not mean
you need to try to promote your Nobody's sitting at
home and going. I wonder what the Propane and Wealth
Service Company has to say it and it's always boring. CG.
Welcome to the program.
Speaker 6 (01:56):
I guess I drive maybe five six days a week,
just part time.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I'm going to say I'm just a part time driver.
Let's see if you can tell me a three phrases
or word pronunciations of JT that I liked the most,
or something like that, like at like that is correctly
like just to make a little lectu income do it again,
just something like that, just to make a little extra
like that. I want to do a regular feature with JT.
(02:31):
Did you guess when? That might have been? May seventeenth.
That was our week in review on Friday, May seventeenth.
I like the way. If JT is out there, call
us seven one, three, nine, nine nine, one thousand. We
(02:52):
just want to see what you've been up to since
May seventeenth when we had you on that week. It's
something like that. I like the way he said like
yet he said it, like yet? What the hell is
going on? Popo? Looking for five men who tried to
rob an armored truck at gunpoint as he serviced an
(03:13):
ATM in Sunnyside. So there's so many questions I have.
First of all, who's still trying to jack an armored truck?
Somebody's watching too many movies? Number two? How are y'all
gonna have a shootout and nobody got hit? You watching
(03:34):
too many movies and too little time at the range?
How are you? You got five of them? Right? So
you figure you got pretty close to him? Because I mean,
if you just from a distance and you O, guys,
I just don't have the heart for this. Let's let's
go find a real job. Turn around. That's not a
that's not an attempted robbery of an armored truck driver.
(03:59):
You had to get close enough and five of you
and there's a shootout. Play that story if you would. KPRCTV.
Speaker 7 (04:08):
The armed guard came to service this ATM police say
when surveillance video captured those men waiting in one of
these parking spots emerge with their guns drawn. It's eerie
to watch this Brinks armed guard doing his job. Just
before three thirty Tuesday afternoon, when this white car full
of men with guns pulls forward and the doors fling open.
A confrontation at the ATM. The guard runs.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Three wind thirty seconds. We get the color of the car,
but that's really the only color we're going to be
allowed in this story. Play that again.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
These parking spots emerge with their guns drawn. It's eerie
to watch this Brinks armed guard doing his job. Just
before three thirty Tuesday afternoon, when this white car full
of men with guns pulls forward and the doors fling open.
A confrontation at the ATM. The guard runs for cover.
A shootout, then the suspects slip and scramble before taking off.
(05:01):
It happened in this strip Mall parking lot sky Too
showing the police response, including the FBI's Bank Robbery Task
Force as we went live for the five PM news.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
One of the.
Speaker 7 (05:11):
Suspects gets into a getaway car and takes off, while
the other three or four suspects then run into this
parking lot. There's like a Domino's pizza in that strip
mall and some other businesses, and according to police, they
then carjack a woman, possibly at gunpoint. That woman was
on her lunch break and heard the gunfire, according to
her coworker, who says she tried to drive away, but
the suspects rushed toward her, pointed a gun, pulled her
(05:33):
from the car and took off, leaving her emotional and
shaken up.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It is very concerning that they ran from this scene
carjack a woman, put her in danger, and then fled.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
Surveillance video showed the white car leaving. One of the
guys runs away, captured on another camera falling to the ground.
Police found the getaway and stolen cars at a dead
end nearby, with no sign of the armed men. And
after all that, we still don't know if any of
them got away with any money.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
A very dangerous situation for the guard and for any
citizens in the areas. Or we're very fortunate today that
nobody was struck by anything gunfire.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
We know the make and model of the car, it's
a Chevrolet in Paula. I don't know why they're going
to give us any of those details. And we know
the color of the Chevy in Paula, and we know
the sex of the five individuals, and we know the
(06:31):
sex of the armored truck driver, and we know the
sex of the woman that they carjacked, but you're afraid
to tell us their skin color. I have my suspicions.
Why can't we know the skin color that might help us?
Speaker 8 (06:52):
You know, and the media is the worst. They won't
mention rays during certain suspect descriptions. That's how politically correc
we are as a country. I was reading in the
New York Daily News the description of a rape suspect,
and they didn't mention the guy's race. Now, once you're caught,
I don't care what you look like. But if we're
still looking for you, how about you mention all pertinent
(07:14):
information so we know who to avoid on the elevator.
Not that I'm the rape target, but I think you
understand this was the politically correct description they gave. They
said the young man was in his twenties, approximately five
't nine, one hundred and eighty five pounds, and was
wearing a red sweatshirt. Uh, you want to cut the
(07:37):
hunt in half red sweatshirt. Really, why would you mention
the thing he can change but not the race which
he can't. What do you think he's gonna leave the
sweatshirt on until the manhunt is over? All his friends
are telling you might want to take that sweatshirt off.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
No, no, I.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
Commit all the rapes in this.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
That's my lucky sweatshirt. Whites are the majority race. So
if the fellas were white, tell us they're white, and
then we don't go looking for Hispanics and Blacks and
Arabs and Indians and Chinamen. They're probably white. Ramon. Probably
(08:23):
five white dudes over in Sunnyside, just blending in in Sunnyside,
just middle of the day, three point thirty at ninety
four fifty one Coling Boulevard, pulling up on a armored
truck driver. Five of them can't hit, not one of
(08:45):
them can connect, and they screwed that up. Yeah, probably
five white dudes, probably.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Like a fair.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Good morning, Captain.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Good morning, Captain, good morning, Captain, good morning, Captain, good morning,
good morning, and Captain the morn out and they wake
up the sunshine and share this rad good morn in Captain.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
It's morning.
Speaker 10 (09:29):
So we see because we're.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Harpie see and you go.
Speaker 9 (09:34):
Downtown's free.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Everybody's saying good morning.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 8 (09:46):
Captain, good morning, Captain, good money, Thank God the sunshine.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
Share this friendly.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
I got early on set, Joe Biden. I got an
email this morning from a guy who says, it being
Wednesday morning, bet you weren't expecting a duet of Frosty
the Snowman with Share and Captain Kangaroo. And it was
an episode of Captain Kangaroo when Shaer was on and
(10:29):
they do Frosty the Snowman. And then he said, how
come you don't do Captain Kangaroo on Wednesday mornings anymore?
And it hit me, hmm, we didn't do Captain Kangaroo.
In fact, we hadn't done Captain Kangaroo in a while.
So I asked Ramon and his answer was, oh, we
(10:50):
had the election and everything. You just executive decision was
not gonna do Captain Kangaroo because we got the election everything. Yeah,
it is time to Joe. You got to keep some things.
That's our Sonic branding. Do you see this story. Scientists
have discovered what at this point is believed to be
(11:14):
the world's largest bed sheet, the world's largest bedsheet. That's
all we have right now, but we'll have more on
this story as it unfolds. Two whales were on their
(11:36):
way home from a bar. The first whale.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Says you, you.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
You, and his friend says, shut up, Colin, you're drunk.
This year for Christmas, I'm only gonna to give pictures
of things as presents instead of the real thing. I
call it gift giving. Laura writes, Zara, here's your doom break.
(12:16):
One day, when you need a break from politics, maybe
you could have people call in about things they have won.
I would love to hear this. I'll start I like
Laura already. When I was five or six, my mom
entered me into a contest called the Northern Kids Contest.
(12:39):
Northern Toilet Tissue was looking for a kid to be
one of the faces on the wrapper. My mom sent
in my picture and we got a letter saying I
was a finalist. A few weeks later, we received word
that I was the grand prize winner. How much you
(13:01):
think she got for that? Five thousand dollars? How'd you
know that? That's weird? She wasn't supposed to get five thousand. Yeah,
she got five thousand dollars and my face was in
the wrapper. Kindness regards Laura. Their email address is bo
and Laura Richard. I couldn't have a Michael in Nundit
(13:25):
to Bury email address because I cuss people out and
some of the things I write, I wouldn't want, you know,
I wouldn't want somebody to wonder does his wife kiss
those kids? With that mouth? They should know if it
if it comes from me, it should come for me.
So I would like to hear from you if you
ever won anything, like really won something, it's got to
(13:50):
have a value of you know, let's say at least
one thousand dollars, preferably more a new car. There was
a guy. There was a guy named h Shoot had
his name. He had just come into Oh, it was
on top of my tongue.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
He was.
Speaker 9 (14:13):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
He was ahead of Texas Commerce Bank Alan god Leah Buckwalter.
Alan Buckwalter had just come into town, and I mean
just come into town to take over TCB. And I
think at that point TCB Texas Commerce Bank, Ben Love's
Bank was about to be bought out by Chemical. I
(14:39):
think it ended up well, you know what happened, and
he played I think it was river Oaks Country Club.
He played a golf tournament, and I think if you
hit a hole in one, there was something that you
had to do, and he did it just a flute
and he won. If I remember correctly, it was a
bright red cat I mean land yacht Cadillac ramone convertible
(15:05):
with the biggest set of longhorns on the front of
this name and he catted around town in it. And
it was the funniest thing because of all the people
that didn't need to win a new Cadillac, he could
have bought one. This guy was ahead of Texas commerce. Bang,
but he did he Uh, he did seven one thousand. Jesse,
(15:30):
you're on the Michael Berry Show, Go ahead, sir.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (15:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well, one time I was thinking Friscoll, Texas and where
the actuals have a minor league team, and uh, this
was back when Carlos Carrera was recovering from an injury,
and uh we uh, we went to go watching a
minor league game. The guy that we went to visit
over there at Frisco lived right across the street at
(15:55):
some apartments. Uh, and it was a beautiful area town
and we went to go watch the Astuals minor league team,
and well, you know how they have that uh that
raffle they do whatever, like you enter in and at
the end of the day, they get half and you
get half. I hit that. I was on my way
(16:16):
to take my son. He was little at the time.
He's twenty now, but I was on my way to
take them to go pee because kids always got pee.
And I told my said, look to fix and do
the drawing, and he said, we'll check it.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
We'll get out.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
You're gonna win anyway, dad, And we went in the
restroom and I'll be done on the way out. We
didn't check and we won that thing.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
How much.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
It was like thirty some hundred. It was like three
thousand and something, and they split it with me and
my wife got to check and spend it.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
And what do they do with the other half. I'm
always worried about that.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
I think they donated to some kind of charity or something.
I don't know what it was, you think, but I've
always and we've been to some sport game where it's
like twenty thirty thousand. I never hit nothing like that, but.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Oh, I've seen it get up. I guess it was
a Texans game. I've seen it get over seventy thousand
because you got a big crowd.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
In that Wow.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
But I bet you, yeah, that thing is always over
thirty thousand because they push it pretty hard. They definitely
push that thing pretty hard. But you think about eighty
one home games. If you did fifteen thousand, if they
kept fifteen thousand, that's a million. It's a one point
two million right there. And I bet you they do
it more than that. I bet you they do a
(17:34):
million and a half on that thing.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
Yeah, that's how I think too much. I always think
numbers will still they still will.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Sigman. You know I'm going to tell you this and nobody.
You don't win any friends for this. I think Regman's
too expensive at this point. And I'm going to say
exactly what I said when they let Correa go and
everybody said, you're an idiot. Correa is part of this team.
You only know what you know. You don't know what
you don't know. And what did we do. We found
(18:05):
Paanya for pennies on the dollar, and you didn't lose.
You didn't lose any offensive production. I think is at
least as good defensively and Korea. While he's the nicest
human being in the world. I want to be clear
about this. He is a super super solid human being.
But Correa had a bad back and that ended up
(18:29):
being a good move. By the way, Uh, we're gonna
all go see Mac at eleven starting at eleven o'clock
on Friday. I'll give you the details coming up doing
a great job and memorial.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
Pastelry, my diversity, a firm jaws.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
All right, if you want something we want to hear
from minutes, let's start. Why is one guy's name something? Andrew?
You couldn't hear him. You think it's a double name.
Oh you get you think he gave you both names?
(19:06):
That always Okay, let's start with Denise. Denise, you're on
the Michael Berry Show. What did you win?
Speaker 10 (19:14):
I won in a raffle, an Australian dingo dog from
the Waco Zoo back in the early seventies.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Oh those are cool?
Speaker 9 (19:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
How did that turn out?
Speaker 7 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (19:30):
It turned out great. But after about a year and
a half to two years, Patrick, because I want him
on Saint Patrick's Day, he went to live on a
ranch where he could have a lot more rin to run.
But I have a trainer that works with my dog now, and.
Speaker 9 (19:45):
She used to work for the Easton Zoo and.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
She told me that zoos don't normally rapple up exotic him,
so I don't think that would happen today.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
That's too bad. That's too bad. Denise. Would you like
to play an episode of You Can't Lose?
Speaker 10 (20:05):
No, not right now, but thank you for asking, and
thank you for your show, and thanks for ramone mentioning
so to weight loss.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
To me, that's not really how it works. Let's go back, Denise.

Verry? Good? Denise, Well, you are a winner on You
Can't Lose Glint. You're on the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Go ahead, Sir, won an eighty thousand dollars bay boat
and a CCA raffle back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You want to what.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
About an eighty thousand dollars bay boat?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Oh bay boat? Okay, what brand? HAINI wow? And how
much did you did you? Did you pay for the raffle?
Speaker 6 (21:38):
So it was one hundred bucks for the raffle ticket.
After that huge celebration and all of the excitement, a
couple of days later they make you aware that you
have to pay sales tax on the item before you
can come picket up. So you know you got that,
and then they ten ninety nine you hit your personal
taxes as a gift. All in all, the raffle ticket
(22:00):
with one hundred bucks and I was probably ten to
twelve grand. Uh you know by the time the year
was out for about a seventy five eighty thousand dollars
boat still have it?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Well that's the government's fault, not CCA's fault. But I
mean I'd do that all day long.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
Hey, can I can I can I do a quick
proud parent shout out?
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Uh huh are you a c member?
Speaker 6 (22:25):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Do you do all their stuff? I got an email
the other day. Do you know the executive director?
Speaker 9 (22:33):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (22:33):
Yeah, I get his emails all the time. Yeah, I
can't call his name off hand. I can't like, wait, wait, wait, way,
Lapierre comes to mind, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
I know what you think. So I get an email says, hey,
I'm Rocky Balboa. What I can't remember his name exactly,
but I'm the executive director of the CCA, and we
would like to be a sponsor of your show. And
I sent back and I was driving and I said,
that's the best news ever. I think it's a wonderful organization.
(23:10):
We've got a lot of listeners who are or would
be members of the CCA. I've had a lot of
friends who were involved with that. Levi Good always did
stuff with him. Buddy of mine named Steve Frounterhouse, who
I don't know if he still does, but he used
to run the Houstonian Complex for Gay Rohn. You know,
(23:31):
the the Houstonian Club and the hotel, and I think
they had a golf course at one point. But anyway,
he's a big I don't know if it's Tarpain or Tarpau,
and he's a big Tarpaun fisherman. Are you familiar with.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
This Robbie Byers, Robbie Byers, Yes, that's it.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Robbie Byers that's exactly right. I said, Rocky by Ball
because I knew it was an RB. Yeah, Robbie Byers, Yeah,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
Yeah, they do good work. CCA does a lot of
an artificial brief project. They really do good work. You know,
there's always controversy with a nonprofit and especially conservation, but
you know, for the most part, eighty five percent of
these guys, they actually their hearts in it. They do
good work. Their banquets are legit. You know, the money
(24:17):
is spent, you know, as far as I can tell,
the money is spent, you know, accordingly towards conservation. There's
always high paid executives no matter what you're doing. But
they really do.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
We see them.
Speaker 6 (24:31):
We see them in the base systems actually, you know,
the fruits of their labor.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
What's your proud parent moment?
Speaker 6 (24:38):
So my fifteen year old is a BRONC rider and
he qualified for Vegas in his rookie year. We just
got back about five days ago. He went up there
way outside of his pay grade. I'd have been a
proud daddy if he rode one of those horses. He
covered every single one of those horses, made the finals,
and came back eighth in the world in his bare
(24:59):
back riding, the only rookie to do it this year. Wow,
I cried, Michael, I cried.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
You know, I ain't mad at you for that. That's
something to be proud of. Brother. How did he get
into that? Did you do that?
Speaker 4 (25:14):
I did?
Speaker 6 (25:14):
I was terrible at it. My dad was a much
better bronk rider than I was in the seventies. I
did a Facebook post. We have a pair of chaps,
my son Rode. Three generations of ives have worn those
chaps in rodeo.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
My brother we used to go to the tin top
my brother Rode. I never I had no interest in it.
That's a great.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
Story, Michael Barry, you.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
Are to ring the King's English.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
David Momsy sends me morning and report on Camp Hope
and who's given what, who's donating their time, who's done something?
When we have a great veteran recovery story. Czar, I'm
sitting in a meeting room in sugar Land this morning
about to speak to the Exchange Club of sugar Land.
(26:10):
It's always an honor the opportunity to share our mission
with the community. This morning, I'm sharing a list of
items that have been donated to Hope. I know you
like that sort of thing. As you will see, these
are completely random items. We never know what will come
in the door every day, but somehow our team makes
it work. We take care of the veterans as the
(26:32):
veterans take care of each other. You want the list
of items from Ang that came in the door. Orange juice,
two bottles, nineteen toothbrush clit kits not clits that include toothbrush,
floss and toothpaste. Clothes, three turkeys, sweatshirts, sweatpants, jeans, socks, shoes, underwear, backpacks,
(26:55):
cleaning products, pillows, equine therapy, two lightly used tires. This
feels like that scene in Austin Powers when they're doing
the intake, or maybe he's getting out eighty baseball caps
with Camp Hope logo. Four rolls of five x eight
(27:19):
AstroTurf valued three hundred dollars, men's clothing, general food and
paper goods. There you have it. Let's go to Diana. Diana,
what did you win?
Speaker 9 (27:35):
Good Mornings are? In nineteen eighty seven, I won the
Sacks Fifth Avenue Mother of the Year.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Oh and where did you win for that?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
And it was my son who submitted that I had
no clue, but I won a total remake and an outfit.
And my brother was getting married that summer, so I
wore the outfit to my brother's wedding in Saint Louis,
And it was a total surprise to me when I
got the call that I was the winner.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
How old was your son when he submitted this?
Speaker 9 (28:09):
He was five? Michael and his dad heard about the contest,
and my son h was an artist and he is
he is. That's what he does professionally. He is a
graphic designer. Uh, top notch.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
But does he have his own shop?
Speaker 9 (28:29):
No, he doesn't.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Does he do a little little work?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
I wish he did?
Speaker 9 (28:33):
I wish he did. He worked for CD Richard Ellis
Big boys.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Okay, all right? And how old is he now?
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (28:42):
But he does he does. He does free lance work.
But anyway, where are you from him? About the contest?
Originally Puerto Rico?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Okay, I was trying to detect your accent. Okay, you've
got the I know you don't think you did. You
have like a point one percent accent that just barely
barely creeps through.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
And you're sure it's not after almost fifty years.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
Of living in Texas and positive.
Speaker 9 (29:16):
Okay, Well, anyway, his dad told him about it. He
drew a picture of me and I think if I
were at home, I would be able to go to
my file of me more memories, Yeah, and pull out
the picture he submitted of me, and almost to the instagree.
Then his dad said, and he interviewed Jordan on his own.
(29:38):
I had no idea this was going on. And he said,
what do you love about your mom?
Speaker 4 (29:44):
What do you like this she.
Speaker 9 (29:45):
Does for you? And that's how they compiled the letter
that they sent to saxophonts Avenue and the picture and
that one that wonderful experience for me. I'll never forget it.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Are you still with his dad?
Speaker 9 (29:59):
No?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Are you remarried?
Speaker 6 (30:02):
No?
Speaker 9 (30:03):
Never have?
Speaker 3 (30:04):
What do you do?
Speaker 9 (30:07):
I have a coaching executive coaching company, Aspire Executive Coaching.
And I mentioned it because I every Tuesday I work
with the veterans at Camp Hope, the ones that are
in yellow face about ready to graduate.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Have you emailed me before, Yes, sir, I have. Okay,
they Aspire Executive Coaching sounds familiar. Yes, what kind of
people do you coach?
Speaker 9 (30:40):
Well? Essentially my Penn State certified as a coach who
deals with the business behavior.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Don't get nervous on me now that.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
What's that?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
I said? Don't get nervous on me now.
Speaker 9 (31:00):
Oh I'm not try to process some things.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Okay. So, like, you don't have to give me the name,
give me the demographics of some people you coach. Are
they a small business owner? Is it Dan Pastorini? Is
it Ramone? Is it Ed Young? Is it Jim mckinveiale.
Is it John Whitmeyer? Is it Clinton Cannon? Is it
(31:26):
Jim Crane?
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Like?
Speaker 3 (31:27):
What do these people do?
Speaker 9 (31:30):
It could be all of the above. I deal with
the individual, and I deal with if a company an
organization have someone who brings something special to the table,
but they are unable to play nice in the sandbox
with either their peers, their direct reports, or are even
(31:52):
presenting a problem with external customers and clients and that
sort of thing. They will bring me in because they
will whatever that person brings to the table is important
to them, but they need to know how to.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Yeah, good, What percentage of your clients are you paid
by the company rather than the individual?
Speaker 9 (32:15):
Probably about ninety five percent.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Okay, Now this makes sense. I always wondered because there's
all these executive coaches out there. You see them all
over social media because they're promoting themselves as you have
to do. And I thought, who are all these people
being coached? Because somebody's got to pay for that. But
if a company doesn't have the structure or the bandwidth
to train their sellers or their HR director or their
(32:40):
receptionist or their landman for that matter, I could see
basically outsourcing to somebody that has experience with that, and
it may be instead of having a direct report that
trains them that. Now this makes sense, Diana, Now it
makes sense. This has bothered me for a while. I
can kind of put this to rest. Did you ever
(33:01):
wonder about that? Like who are all these people paying
to be coached? Like how can they afford it? But
a company needing to fill the gap of what they
don't have the expertise or bandwidth uh to do? Okay,
that makes sense. Yeah, now that helps Dana.
Speaker 9 (33:19):
And when someone does hire me privately, Michael, it's because
they know that they are not moving forward in their
career like they should have, and a lot of times
it's because of their behavior.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
No, you cannot have her number one though. The reason
you don't move forward in your career, is you're lazy.
I won the top Pop competition in Orange for the
Orange Leader and wrote I wrote into the Orange Leader.
They had a competition about my dad being the top
pop and he got a three hundred dollars gift card
(33:55):
to Palais Royal and I got one hundred and fifty
dollars safe avings bond that I couldn't redeem for like
thirty years.
