Speaker 1 (00:35):
You know two little babies over there. That guy, Yeah,
Alex didn't sleep before he had kids. Okay, I would
get on him that that's been you guys think that
that's a bit on the radio. I look at him
and I yell at him sometimes I'm like, dude, you
have to go to sleep. And then he's like, you
know him, now, I'm gonna sleep less because you told
me I need to sleep. Now, I'm never sleeping. Like.
(00:57):
He's such a little kid in that respect, and he's
he's not doing a bit on the radio. Now it's him.
So I've always been worried about the lack of sleep
for this guy. But he comes in. He's never late,
he's never called in sick. He comes in, He performs.
He knocks it out of the park every day on
such little sleep. He needs. When his time is gone,
(01:22):
they need to donate his body the science to figure
out how did it operate on such little sleep?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, and perform at.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
I don't know. I don't know it need a night
or change himself.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
When he told us before we I don't think he
would mind me sharing this. When he told us that
Emma was pregnant again, it was different than the first one.
It was just they were trying for the first one.
(02:52):
The second one just a surprise, like I go do
where you He's like, no, a little bit of surprise here.

It's a lot, it's a lot. I got one. I'm
freaking I got one, and I'm still freaking okay.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Two clothes like that though, you're still blacked out from
the first one. So you're like, let's just get through
this and then eventually we'll come up for air.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
You got to do trending coming up? He's freaking out. Okay,
He's like, those are my three kids right now, the
three trending stories that I'm looking for that I have
to that I have to have ready for after this break.
Congratulations Alex. We love everybody. Don't worry about us. We
have this all right. We will figure it out over here.
As you are figuring out and navigating your beautiful life
and you're expanding family over there. I can only imagine.
(03:46):
I know Alex's parents pretty well. They got to just
be freaking out, just like, put me in? Are you

can I come in? Like she's I mean, she wants
put her in? Yeah, she wants. He's lucky he will.
He won't.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
He doesn't want to bother them, you know, He's like, no,
I have to do that.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Oh. I think he's going to be using them plenty.
Don't worry, mama, P you Yeah, you're in. You'll be
busy as while moving forward. On the flip of this break,
hit us up on Instagram at rod Ryan Show Beautiful,
Oh My Chemical Romance. We all decided as a team
that we thought it was a good thing to give
(04:26):
away these tickets even though they're not coming to Houston, Chile.
All right, I know you're upset. They are playing San
Antonio at the Alamodome and tickets will go on sale Friday.
We have win them before you can buy them. Tickets
to their show in San Antonio after the break of
US Rock and Alter Ryan Morning Show. I'm six to

on this wild card Wednesday. MO. We got those my
Chemical Romance tickets. Oh yeah, okay, we'll get to those
in just a second to win before you can buy
a situation. The other win them before they go on
sale is MGK, whiz Khalifa, Chillie. You're still placing these
(05:08):
things around you put those on the show, right, yes, yes,
tickets go on Tickets go on sale tomorrow at ten am.
All right, Well there's the Chile right there. I know
this is your gig. Now that the trending, but it's
still it's all Jimmy Kimmel. I thought it was interesting
that what's trending is Jimmy Kimmel monologue. I think after
(05:33):
he got done at the beginning of the show and
somebody that maybe watch could correctly or speak on this.
It seemed like he was doing a regular show after that.
He wasn't going to do and however long that show is,
and I'll let's say it's an hour. He wasn't going
to just talk about that for an hour. No, I
saw he had Glenn powellong, Yes, he's Oh, he had
(05:53):
my girl, Sarah maclauchlin, Sarah maclach He's got quite the
week stacked up ready with. But the monologue is what
everybody wanted to see. And the ratings. I imagine tomorrow
we're talking about what kind of ratings he got. They
probably know now, but that's still trending. So we have
that on links and guests if you hadn't seen the
(06:14):
monologue and it's something that you're interested in to see
how he handled this very delicate situation. I thought overall,
I thought he did a good job from what I saw.
What else is trending?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
All right? So the MLB, No, the astros are not trending, But.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
The MLB has to prove robot umpires for twenty twenty six.
That's part of the challenge the system.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
And I'm glad you're saying it that way. For challenges, right,
they're still going to have the regular guys or.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Gal so so everyone to see him at was the springball,
spring training and all that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
That's why we're going to see him in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Are they using that for football? Because I felt like
in preseason reason they were using the chip, the ball
or whatever they call it to see if they got
a first down. But I don't see it during regular
season because.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
It took forever and like you would just see like
the revs getting together. Look if everybody would look at
the big screen in the stadium.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
You don't want to make the game as hard, okay, And.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
They said he wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
MLB said they would take like about fifteen seconds, fifteen
to twenty seconds, you know, So it's not that bad.
So they approved it with us. Uh man, I gotta
give a shout out to our frame contributor of the show,
Rick V for the wild Card Wednesday. Yeah, Sage Raya
or Raya poems or pons, I'll say it, you know,

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Five The rod Ryan Show ninety four or five The
Buzus Good Morning, rod Ryan's Show. Every now and then,
still she's been here for a bit, but every now
and then I look over at Mo and she's not
saying anything. But that's disturbed down with the sickness. And
there's that portion of the song which they do something
that I think I'm doing their songs, but it's like, okay, mommy,
(08:44):
stop aby, I'll be a good boy, and I'm looking
at you, and I just said, while the song was playing,
you work here, No, I do your thank you for
having me the place where you work? Yeah, plays that.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
I swear I've heard that song before, but Nember that
part I don't know why struck me today, but it
really did.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I think there must be an edit that that whatever
where I've never heard that before.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Is so weird. When they take it.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Off, I'm gonna miss it. Yeah, next time I hear it,
don't put the edit in there. Just play that one.
Good morning, everybody morning. The other time I look at
you is when corn is playing.

Good morning.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
On the phone, Hello, good morning.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Hi.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Who's this Johnny?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Johnny?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You're calling number ten? MO, would joke up? Johnny? Please?
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Yes, sir, we're sending it to San Antonio, but just
for a day because my chemical romance has taken over
the Alimodome September twelfth. Okay, tickets go on sale Friday
noon ticketmaster dot com.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
But Johnny, you don't have to worry about that. You'll
be there. Awesome. This is that sounds great to me.
I can this is a different Johnny. I can tell
by the voice because, for for one brief moment on
this show, during the fresh out of bed head to
head we had three second Johnny on Johnny. Three seconds
Johnny three seconds came in and then I had not
heard from him, Like he wasn't even a rally. When
(10:23):
he lost the game, he hung up and then that
was it. Yes, kind of reminded me of slow Jeff lost.
I never heard from him forever. I hope that three
second Johnny's out there somewhere. Hey, this Johnny here, Johnny Winner,
Johnny the Winner, Johnny the My Chemical Romance ticket Winner. Congratulations, dude,
thanks for being a part of the show today. Thank you,
thank you for pulling my name out of your hat.
(10:43):
I was going to be the Las Vegas when is
a couple of years back. I appreciate that guys won
some stuff from us before. It is Johnny the Winner.
Three second Johnny, if you're out there, I love you.
I just I'm sorry that work out. I'm sorry I
didn't work out. If I shout of bad head to head,
he was like it was a one pump chump. Oh.
(11:11):
I told you guys that I already spent a million
dollars on Halloween on three wreaths that for some reason,
there's only one done and it's mine. That when I
shared the six picks for this weekend, the disruption of
my house and these two long tables that are full
of crafty. It's still there. I've put I've told the
(11:33):
other two people these wreaths must be done today.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Oh, you put a deadline. You can't put a deadline
a creativity rot.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
This isn't the This isn't Mama Cash's house. You ever
been over there. It's crazy. There's crafts all over the place.
This is not the reason need to be done, all right.
I spent the money on the wreaths you want to
make you it was your It wasn't my idea. I
finished my wreath. Okay, if you don't know what I'm
talking about, it was in my six picks from the weekend.
I already been into it. I love it Halloween. Listen,
(12:01):
Budgets are tighter. All I keep hearing about is money
is tight. Yeah, and things are still expensive at the
grocery store. Budgets may be tighter for a lot of
you here in America, in Houston and the surrounding areas.
Apparently Halloween spending doesn't count. Wait, what it's like when
you have, like when you're full. I've been told that
there's a dessert stomach. So when when your money, when
(12:26):
your money is tight, apparently you just find some for
Halloween spending. There's just that doesn't count towards your budget.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
We were just talking about this for vacations where people
just go crazy.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
According to the National Retail Federation, US consumers will spend
thirteen point one billion dollars on this Halloween. That's up
from eleven point six last year. Holy moly, two billion
almost two billion more will be spent this year on Halloween. Now,
last year was down a little bit. But where's the
(13:02):
money coming from for Halloween? If you don't have money,
you're still bitching about eggs and butter and milk. Yet
somehow we're finding money for the things that we ve.
You gotta get on board with Halloween. People love it. No,
I don't. People love it?
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Okay, talk to me at Thanksgiving and Christmas and fourth
of July.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
The number one thing that we're spending money on for
Halloween is candy. You buy candy for trigger treaders, right
or you don't at that sign that says hey we're
not home. Nope. We go to Costco.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
We get the regular sized candy bars like wait, when
you say regular size, full size, full size, you give
out full sized.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Candy bar, that's super small, neighborhood. I's gonna say, wow,
how many Just throw a number at me, how many kids?
You think you have? Less than one hundred? But full
size that's a that's a buck apiece for those candy bars,
is it. It's gotta be. I don't know. It's a
bucket piece when you get them on a full sized
candy bar. If you buy them in bulk, I still
think they run about a bucketpiece. It's the only time
(13:55):
of year I buy candy. Okay, So three point nine
billion of that thirteen billion is going to be in candy. Okay, Okay,
that's the most popular Halloween purchase. Most still in what's
the rest? Decorations? Costume, costumes, costumes and decorating, Yeah, make
(14:16):
up a brunt of the rest of the money. The
kids are gonna get, The kids are gonna wear costumes. Yes,
for sure, you're so. You're boom even though you don't
love the holidays.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I'm not decorating with skeletons. There's no bloody hand prints
in my house. I hate all of that stuff, not
even a ghost, No, no, we don't do ghosts, we
don't do witches.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Carving pumpkins, yes, all the fall things. Hello, I'm ashtag basic. Okay,
so fall cozy. Well, I know that you're trying to
put that under the umbrella a fall. But carving a
pumpkin is exclusive to Halloween. You don't carve a Thanksgiving pumpkin. Really,
you don't. Nobody does. So you're doing a lot of
(14:58):
the Halloween stuff checking the box.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Sis, I'm just not celebrating the nasty part of Halloween.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
So you don't like the warlocky no dead stuff, not
into that, skipping all of it. So that means your
kids are going to be like that when they get older,
I could only hope. So they're going to do the opposite.
They're going to become Ellen. You're right.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Sailor's already doing the opposite. She's like, Halloween's my favorite. Yeah,
it's like you're wrong to Uncle Rod's house.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Oh yeah, bring them over.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
He gives a good kid.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
All right. Well, listen, budgets may be tighter than ever
for Americans, but Halloween spending record highs this year. Way
to go the Rod Ryan Show on the buzz. Okay,
by the way, he's singing over there. I think it's
Chili's one of Chili's favorites. Stn't Temple Pilot songs as well,
(15:51):
that's one of mine. N I don't know. Is it
better than plush?
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Mantling is glue to me?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, it's pretty great. Are such a low I see
you singing it over there, and I'm like, yeah, she'ld

wild Card Wednesday. I got four tickets to bring me
the horizon. That show's Friday. More tickets coming your way

tickets for you on no the show. You got one more?
You got Houston's headlines in you? Yeah? OK, ready for it? Yeah?
What you got for me? Well?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Jimmy Kimmel delivered what might have been the most anticipated
monologue in late night history last night.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
If you thanked.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Everyone who supported him during his suspension, including Senator Ted Cruz,
who did speak out and support a free speech.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
And he sparred famously with Ted Cruz. Do you remember
the basketball game? Yeah, if they played against one another,
and I mean most people, and I think Jimmy called
him a blobfish. And it needs to be mentioned that
Ted Cruz beat him. I believe Ted Crews won that
one on one basketball game.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
He still donated like ten thousand dollars through the chair.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So for him to call him out specifically, he felt
like something. Yeah, so it was a moment last night.
We have that moment on LinkedIn Guests emotional. I will
do that first thing after the show, go and watch
the monologue because we said specifically, what's trending is Jimmy
Kimmel monologue sounds like the rest of the show was
just a normal show. Yeah, go check it out, see
what you think.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
I know, he's got a lot of VIP guests plans
for the rest of the week, so we'll see how
ratings go.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Did you say young Blood was on tonight? Tonight? Good
for him? Will you watch it tomorrow? Yeah, I'm all
in on young Blood right now, you are. I support
that message. He's got a song out there with the
guys in Aerosmith, and I asked the radio wizard. I'm like,
are we playing it? He's like, nah, Like all right,
I haven't listened to it yet. Give it a secon
all right, what do you got? What else? Age your
(18:00):
cold front?
Speaker 4 (18:01):
We love to hear that making its way through Texas
expected to bring a round up strong storms to our
area today.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Timing wise is looking around four.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Pm when things will move into the Houston area along
iten So Katie, Downtown, even Beaumont. The most intense storms
are expected to push towards the Gulf six pm. Could
you linger?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Could you dial me up a cold front with no rain?
Speaker 4 (18:26):
I think you have to have some sort of impact.
Can bring the cold front? Right, We're just going to
get through it, all right? That coming we're going to
get through it.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Can we dial it up for noon because at that
time I'm as sleeping?
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Oh, I can't wait? You've you still working on the
podcast at noon? All right? Say that you're not going
to be this week. We're going to get through it.
You or Alex are not sleeping this week, rod, aren't you?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Glad?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Dancing with the Stars is on early so you can
tune in and what do.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You mean it's early? What time is this sart? Like
seven pm last night? Okay, No, I didn't watch.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
But I do need to break some news because Corey Feldman.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Spoiler alert eliminated last night. Dude, you just ruined it
for me. I recorded it, I was gonna watch it today.
He's such a liar.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
I knew that I needed to tell you because you
were team Corey Feldman.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I don't. It's like a weird obsession that y'all have
I to die because he's so weird weird.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
He did say he felt bad that he sucked it
up on the show because his professional partner is really good. Ultimately,
he was part of the double elimination last night.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Spoiler alert. No one cares. Uh, just when you thought
you heard the end, somebody cares. I do, Okay, Alex does.
He loves Corey Feldman. Now, this is a silly story.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
It is kind of oddly timed. I think the Coldplay
Jumbo Trunk couple. We thought that was over and no
someone else decided to come out of the woodwork just
now to tell us that those two people were just friends.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
No, you're never gonna You're never gonna make me believe that.
I can't. I don't think I can be convinced. There's
people with million dollar salaries that lost their job, and
there's marriages ending. It wasn't friends and friends don't watch
a show. The way that they got caught, the way
they were holding each other, and then the way they reasked,
who is this person that's saying they're only friends? I
don't know the scandal smokes of jobs. They're calling it
(20:15):
unfair who I don't know? Who's they? I'll find out
who is this person tomorrow? Okay, can you give me
till tomorrow? Find out on the X yesterday?
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Sammy Hagar, Yeah, quick little video of him, Chad Kroeger,
Tommy Lee.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Why it's a supergroup? Were they hanging out just normal,
just guys or are they just getting ready to announce
something for Sammy's birthday, which is always an all star bash?
Is it? But would they take the time to go
in the studio and do something practice? That would be cool?
I think that'd be a cool But who's gonna sing?
Sammy or Chad? Or do they traded off vocals?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I think Sammy. I think Chad would be on guitar.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Channa gonna just stand up there not saying though, huh.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
But everybody expects him to sing. But the star is
Sammy Day's birthday. Yeah, then you got Chad and then
Tommy Lee on drums.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Well I know they they've all jammed together before, but
why did they make this video? Is it? Will they
go in and record something and maybe like make new
music together. That's what I think the speculation is here, duncanta.
We love to hear it.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Sammy's birthday's October thirteenth, so maybe we'll know more than
those are Houston's headlines.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I'd be down for an all star band like that. Yeah,
all right, Chili is holding down sports.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Which you got, and we'll be down at the Astros
get a win today. That's not what we're hoping for,
so come on, Astros. They took they took an l
to the A's yesterday at five to one, but you
know what, what's still hopeful.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
They got a chance.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
You know, like in Dumb and Dumber they said, so
you're telling me there's a chance.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
So we are all for that right now.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
The Astros play Game two today against the A's at
nine oh five pm and Sacramento Hunter Brown's going to
be on the mound for the Astros and Louis Verno
for the You can listen to the game live on
our sister station, Sports Talk seven ninety Thank you a
news talk news Radio seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Now and some football news.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Hey man, diehard Texans fans, man, hold on, strong man.
You know Texans, they they made a roster move yesterday.
They got rid of our veteran safety CJ. Gardner Johnson.
Apparently there was some friction in the locker room behind
the scenes, per league sources. So you know he's gone.
So let's go Texans. We got the Tennessee Oilers this
weekend here at ENRG Stadium, so we need everybody to
(22:36):
be loud. Titans have that rookie first round pick cam
Ward as their quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Okay, you're worried about him.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
He could be trouble. He could be troubled. But they're
not doing too good either, so I mean it should
be a good game. Always a rivalry there anyway.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
So we have the twenty twenty three rookie of the
year at quarterback.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Yeah, but I feel like we got a rookie this season.

You know two little babies over there. That guy, Yeah,
Alex didn't sleep before he had kids. Okay, I would
get on him that that's been you guys think that
that's a bit on the radio. I look at him
and I yell at him sometimes I'm like, dude, you
have to go to sleep. And then he's like, you
know him, now, I'm gonna sleep less because you told
me I need to sleep. Now, I'm never sleeping. Like.
(00:57):
He's such a little kid in that respect, and he's
he's not doing a bit on the radio. Now it's him.
So I've always been worried about the lack of sleep
for this guy. But he comes in. He's never late,
he's never called in sick. He comes in, He performs.
He knocks it out of the park every day on
such little sleep. He needs. When his time is gone,
(01:22):
they need to donate his body the science to figure
out how did it operate on such little sleep?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, and perform at.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
I don't know. I don't know it need a night
or change himself.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
When he told us before we I don't think he
would mind me sharing this. When he told us that
Emma was pregnant again, it was different than the first one.
It was just they were trying for the first one.
(02:52):
The second one just a surprise, like I go do

three trending stories that I'm looking for that I have
to that I have to have ready for after this break.
Congratulations Alex. We love everybody. Don't worry about us. We
have this all right. We will figure it out over here.
As you are figuring out and navigating your beautiful life
and you're expanding family over there. I can only imagine.
(03:46):
I know Alex's parents pretty well. They got to just
be freaking out, just like, put me in? Are you
ready for me yet? You're for me yet? Can I
can I come in? Like she's I mean, she wants
put her in? Yeah, she wants. He's lucky he will.
He won't.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
He doesn't want to bother them, you know, He's like, no,
I have to do that.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Oh. I think he's going to be using them plenty.
Don't worry, mama, P you Yeah, you're in. You'll be
busy as while moving forward. On the flip of this break,
hit us up on Instagram at rod Ryan Show Beautiful,
Oh My Chemical Romance. We all decided as a team
that we thought it was a good thing to give
(04:26):
away these tickets even though they're not coming to Houston, Chile.
All right, I know you're upset. They are playing San
Antonio at the Alamodome and tickets will go on sale Friday.
We have win them before you can buy them. Tickets
to their show in San Antonio after the break of
US Rock and Alter Ryan Morning Show. I'm six to

on this wild card Wednesday. MO. We got those my
Chemical Romance tickets. Oh yeah, okay, we'll get to those

a situation. The other win them before they go on
sale is MGK, whiz Khalifa, Chillie. You're still placing these
(05:08):
things around you put those on the show, right, yes, yes,
tickets go on Tickets go on sale tomorrow at ten am.
All right, Well there's the Chile right there. I know
this is your gig. Now that the trending, but it's
still it's all Jimmy Kimmel. I thought it was interesting
that what's trending is Jimmy Kimmel monologue. I think after
(05:33):
he got done at the beginning of the show and
somebody that maybe watch could correctly or speak on this.
It seemed like he was doing a regular show after that.
He wasn't going to do and however long that show is,
and I'll let's say it's an hour. He wasn't going
to just talk about that for an hour. No, I
saw he had Glenn powellong, Yes, he's Oh, he had
(05:53):
my girl, Sarah maclauchlin, Sarah maclach He's got quite the
week stacked up ready with. But the monologue is what
everybody wanted to see. And the ratings. I imagine tomorrow
we're talking about what kind of ratings he got. They
probably know now, but that's still trending. So we have
that on links and guests if you hadn't seen the
(06:14):
monologue and it's something that you're interested in to see
how he handled this very delicate situation. I thought overall,
I thought he did a good job from what I saw.
What else is trending?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
All right? So the MLB, No, the astros are not trending, But.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
The MLB has to prove robot umpires for twenty twenty six.
That's part of the challenge the system.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
And I'm glad you're saying it that way. For challenges, right,
they're still going to have the regular guys or.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Gal so so everyone to see him at was the springball,
spring training and all that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
That's why we're going to see him in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Are they using that for football? Because I felt like
in preseason reason they were using the chip, the ball
or whatever they call it to see if they got
a first down. But I don't see it during regular
season because.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
It took forever and like you would just see like
the revs getting together. Look if everybody would look at
the big screen in the stadium.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
You don't want to make the game as hard, okay, And.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
They said he wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
MLB said they would take like about fifteen seconds, fifteen
to twenty seconds, you know, So it's not that bad.
So they approved it with us. Uh man, I gotta
give a shout out to our frame contributor of the show,
Rick V for the wild Card Wednesday. Yeah, Sage Raya
or Raya poems or pons, I'll say it, you know,
(07:35):

Five The rod Ryan Show ninety four or five The
Buzus Good Morning, rod Ryan's Show. Every now and then,
still she's been here for a bit, but every now
and then I look over at Mo and she's not
saying anything. But that's disturbed down with the sickness. And
there's that portion of the song which they do something
that I think I'm doing their songs, but it's like, okay, mommy,
(08:44):
stop aby, I'll be a good boy, and I'm looking
at you, and I just said, while the song was playing,
you work here, No, I do your thank you for
having me the place where you work? Yeah, plays that.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
I swear I've heard that song before, but Nember that
part I don't know why struck me today, but it
really did.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I think there must be an edit that that whatever
where I've never heard that before.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Is so weird. When they take it.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Off, I'm gonna miss it. Yeah, next time I hear it,
don't put the edit in there. Just play that one.
Good morning, everybody morning. The other time I look at
you is when corn is playing.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
On the phone, Hello, good morning.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Hi.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Who's this Johnny?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Johnny?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You're calling number ten? MO, would joke up? Johnny? Please?
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Yes, sir, we're sending it to San Antonio, but just

noon ticketmaster dot com.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
But Johnny, you don't have to worry about that. You'll
be there. Awesome. This is that sounds great to me.
I can this is a different Johnny. I can tell
by the voice because, for for one brief moment on
this show, during the fresh out of bed head to
head we had three second Johnny on Johnny. Three seconds
Johnny three seconds came in and then I had not
heard from him, Like he wasn't even a rally. When
(10:23):
he lost the game, he hung up and then that
was it. Yes, kind of reminded me of slow Jeff lost.
I never heard from him forever. I hope that three
second Johnny's out there somewhere. Hey, this Johnny here, Johnny Winner,
Johnny the Winner, Johnny the My Chemical Romance ticket Winner. Congratulations, dude,
thanks for being a part of the show today. Thank you,
thank you for pulling my name out of your hat.
(10:43):
I was going to be the Las Vegas when is
a couple of years back. I appreciate that guys won
some stuff from us before. It is Johnny the Winner.
Three second Johnny, if you're out there, I love you.
I just I'm sorry that work out. I'm sorry I
didn't work out. If I shout of bad head to head,
he was like it was a one pump chump. Oh.
(11:11):
I told you guys that I already spent a million
dollars on Halloween on three wreaths that for some reason,
there's only one done and it's mine. That when I
shared the six picks for this weekend, the disruption of
my house and these two long tables that are full
of crafty. It's still there. I've put I've told the
(11:33):
other two people these wreaths must be done today.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Oh, you put a deadline. You can't put a deadline
a creativity rot.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
This isn't the This isn't Mama Cash's house. You ever
been over there. It's crazy. There's crafts all over the place.
This is not the reason need to be done, all right.
I spent the money on the wreaths you want to
make you it was your It wasn't my idea. I
finished my wreath. Okay, if you don't know what I'm
talking about, it was in my six picks from the weekend.
I already been into it. I love it Halloween. Listen,
(12:01):
Budgets are tighter. All I keep hearing about is money
is tight. Yeah, and things are still expensive at the
grocery store. Budgets may be tighter for a lot of
you here in America, in Houston and the surrounding areas.
Apparently Halloween spending doesn't count. Wait, what it's like when
you have, like when you're full. I've been told that
there's a dessert stomach. So when when your money, when
(12:26):
your money is tight, apparently you just find some for
Halloween spending. There's just that doesn't count towards your budget.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
We were just talking about this for vacations where people
just go crazy.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
According to the National Retail Federation, US consumers will spend
thirteen point one billion dollars on this Halloween. That's up
from eleven point six last year. Holy moly, two billion
almost two billion more will be spent this year on Halloween. Now,
last year was down a little bit. But where's the
(13:02):
money coming from for Halloween? If you don't have money,
you're still bitching about eggs and butter and milk. Yet
somehow we're finding money for the things that we ve.
You gotta get on board with Halloween. People love it. No,
I don't. People love it?
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Okay, talk to me at Thanksgiving and Christmas and fourth
of July.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
The number one thing that we're spending money on for
Halloween is candy. You buy candy for trigger treaders, right
or you don't at that sign that says hey we're
not home. Nope. We go to Costco.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
We get the regular sized candy bars like wait, when
you say regular size, full size, full size, you give
out full sized.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Candy bar, that's super small, neighborhood. I's gonna say, wow,
how many Just throw a number at me, how many kids?
You think you have? Less than one hundred? But full
size that's a that's a buck apiece for those candy bars,
is it. It's gotta be. I don't know. It's a
bucket piece when you get them on a full sized
candy bar. If you buy them in bulk, I still
think they run about a bucketpiece. It's the only time
(13:55):
of year I buy candy. Okay, So three point nine
billion of that thirteen billion is going to be in candy. Okay, Okay,
that's the most popular Halloween purchase. Most still in what's
the rest? Decorations? Costume, costumes, costumes and decorating, Yeah, make
(14:16):
up a brunt of the rest of the money. The
kids are gonna get, The kids are gonna wear costumes. Yes,
for sure, you're so. You're boom even though you don't
love the holidays.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I'm not decorating with skeletons. There's no bloody hand prints
in my house. I hate all of that stuff, not
even a ghost, No, no, we don't do ghosts, we
don't do witches.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Carving pumpkins, yes, all the fall things. Hello, I'm ashtag basic. Okay,
so fall cozy. Well, I know that you're trying to
put that under the umbrella a fall. But carving a
pumpkin is exclusive to Halloween. You don't carve a Thanksgiving pumpkin. Really,
you don't. Nobody does. So you're doing a lot of
(14:58):
the Halloween stuff checking the box.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Sis, I'm just not celebrating the nasty part of Halloween.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
So you don't like the warlocky no dead stuff, not
into that, skipping all of it. So that means your
kids are going to be like that when they get older,
I could only hope. So they're going to do the opposite.
They're going to become Ellen. You're right.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Sailor's already doing the opposite. She's like, Halloween's my favorite. Yeah,
it's like you're wrong to Uncle Rod's house.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Oh yeah, bring them over.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
He gives a good kid.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
All right. Well, listen, budgets may be tighter than ever
for Americans, but Halloween spending record highs this year. Way
to go the Rod Ryan Show on the buzz. Okay,
by the way, he's singing over there. I think it's
Chili's one of Chili's favorites. Stn't Temple Pilot songs as well,
(15:51):
that's one of mine. N I don't know. Is it
better than plush?
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Mantling is glue to me?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, it's pretty great. Are such a low I see
you singing it over there, and I'm like, yeah, she'ld
have likes it too. Good morning, everybody. Rob Ryan's show
wild Card Wednesday. I got four tickets to bring me
the horizon. That show's Friday. More tickets coming your way
around nine to ten and then m GK Whiz Khalifa

tickets for you on no the show. You got one more?
You got Houston's headlines in you? Yeah? OK, ready for it? Yeah?
What you got for me? Well?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Jimmy Kimmel delivered what might have been the most anticipated
monologue in late night history last night.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
If you thanked.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Everyone who supported him during his suspension, including Senator Ted Cruz,
who did speak out and support a free speech.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
And he sparred famously with Ted Cruz. Do you remember
the basketball game? Yeah, if they played against one another,
and I mean most people, and I think Jimmy called
him a blobfish. And it needs to be mentioned that
Ted Cruz beat him. I believe Ted Crews won that
one on one basketball game.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
He still donated like ten thousand dollars through the chair.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So for him to call him out specifically, he felt
like something. Yeah, so it was a moment last night.
We have that moment on LinkedIn Guests emotional. I will
do that first thing after the show, go and watch
the monologue because we said specifically, what's trending is Jimmy
Kimmel monologue sounds like the rest of the show was
just a normal show. Yeah, go check it out, see
what you think.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
I know, he's got a lot of VIP guests plans
for the rest of the week, so we'll see how
ratings go.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Did you say young Blood was on tonight? Tonight? Good
for him? Will you watch it tomorrow? Yeah, I'm all
in on young Blood right now, you are. I support
that message. He's got a song out there with the
guys in Aerosmith, and I asked the radio wizard. I'm like,
are we playing it? He's like, nah, Like all right,
I haven't listened to it yet. Give it a secon
all right, what do you got? What else? Age your
(18:00):
cold front?
Speaker 4 (18:01):
We love to hear that making its way through Texas
expected to bring a round up strong storms to our
area today.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Timing wise is looking around four.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Pm when things will move into the Houston area along
iten So Katie, Downtown, even Beaumont. The most intense storms
are expected to push towards the Gulf six pm. Could
you linger?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Could you dial me up a cold front with no rain?
Speaker 4 (18:26):
I think you have to have some sort of impact.
Can bring the cold front? Right, We're just going to
get through it, all right? That coming we're going to
get through it.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Can we dial it up for noon because at that
time I'm as sleeping?
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Oh, I can't wait? You've you still working on the
podcast at noon? All right? Say that you're not going
to be this week. We're going to get through it.
You or Alex are not sleeping this week, rod, aren't you?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Glad?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Dancing with the Stars is on early so you can
tune in and what do.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You mean it's early? What time is this sart? Like
seven pm last night? Okay, No, I didn't watch.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
But I do need to break some news because Corey Feldman.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Spoiler alert eliminated last night. Dude, you just ruined it
for me. I recorded it, I was gonna watch it today.
He's such a liar.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
I knew that I needed to tell you because you
were team Corey Feldman.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I don't. It's like a weird obsession that y'all have
I to die because he's so weird weird.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
He did say he felt bad that he sucked it
up on the show because his professional partner is really good. Ultimately,
he was part of the double elimination last night.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Spoiler alert. No one cares. Uh, just when you thought
you heard the end, somebody cares. I do, Okay, Alex does.
He loves Corey Feldman. Now, this is a silly story.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
It is kind of oddly timed. I think the Coldplay
Jumbo Trunk couple. We thought that was over and no
someone else decided to come out of the woodwork just
now to tell us that those two people were just friends.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
No, you're never gonna You're never gonna make me believe that.
I can't. I don't think I can be convinced. There's
people with million dollar salaries that lost their job, and
there's marriages ending. It wasn't friends and friends don't watch
a show. The way that they got caught, the way
they were holding each other, and then the way they reasked,
who is this person that's saying they're only friends? I
don't know the scandal smokes of jobs. They're calling it
(20:15):
unfair who I don't know? Who's they? I'll find out
who is this person tomorrow? Okay, can you give me
till tomorrow? Find out on the X yesterday?
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Sammy Hagar, Yeah, quick little video of him, Chad Kroeger,
Tommy Lee.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Why it's a supergroup? Were they hanging out just normal,
just guys or are they just getting ready to announce
something for Sammy's birthday, which is always an all star bash?
Is it? But would they take the time to go
in the studio and do something practice? That would be cool?
I think that'd be a cool But who's gonna sing?
Sammy or Chad? Or do they traded off vocals?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I think Sammy. I think Chad would be on guitar.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Channa gonna just stand up there not saying though, huh.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
But everybody expects him to sing. But the star is
Sammy Day's birthday. Yeah, then you got Chad and then
Tommy Lee on drums.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Well I know they they've all jammed together before, but
why did they make this video? Is it? Will they
go in and record something and maybe like make new
music together. That's what I think the speculation is here, duncanta.
We love to hear it.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Sammy's birthday's October thirteenth, so maybe we'll know more than
those are Houston's headlines.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I'd be down for an all star band like that. Yeah,
all right, Chili is holding down sports.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Which you got, and we'll be down at the Astros
get a win today. That's not what we're hoping for,
so come on, Astros. They took they took an l
to the A's yesterday at five to one, but you
know what, what's still hopeful.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
They got a chance.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
You know, like in Dumb and Dumber they said, so
you're telling me there's a chance.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
So we are all for that right now.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
The Astros play Game two today against the A's at

the scenes, per league sources. So you know he's gone.
So let's go Texans. We got the Tennessee Oilers this
weekend here at ENRG Stadium, so we need everybody to

Speaker 2 (22:44):
He could be trouble. He could be troubled. But they're
not doing too good either, so I mean it should

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
