Till Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
I returned to this chamber tonight to report that America's
momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,
our confidence is back, and the American Dream is surging
bigger and better than ever before. This will be our
(00:37):
greatest era. With God's help, over the next four years,
we are going to lead this nation even higher, and
we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic,
and most dominant civilization ever to exist on the face
of this Earth. We are going to create the highest
(00:58):
quality of life, the safest and wealthiest and healthiest and
most vital communities anywhere in the world.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We are going to conquer the.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Vast frontiers of science, and we're going to lead humanity
into space and plant the American flag on the planet
Mars and even far beyond. And through it all, we
(01:45):
are going to rediscover the unstoppable power of the American spirit,
and we are going to renew unlimited promise of the
American Dream.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Every single day.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
We will stand up and we will fight, fight, fight
for the country our citizens believe in, and for the
country our people deserve. My fellow Americans, get ready for
an incredible future because the Golden Age of America has
only just begun. It will be like nothing that has
(02:19):
ever been seen before. Thank you, God bless you, and
God bless.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
You.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Were to ask the media.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
About Attorney General Ken Paxton challenging John Wayne mccornyn when
you know, well, people don't like past. You know, they
impeached him in the House. If you were to ask
Jounk Dade, Dustin Burroughs, the Republican insiders, the big money
(03:07):
boys of folks that brought Nikki Haley to Texas during
the primary of last year, that say, oh no, he.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Can't he can't beat John Wayne mccornyn. He can't do it.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
If you ask you the people who will vote in
the Republican primary, see this is they don't ever give
voice to what you're saying. And it's not until it
happens because your candidates can't get their name out, they
can't raise the money.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But when they can, and when they do breaking news.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Two internal polls reportedly show John Wayne mccornan down by
seventeen points to Ken Paxton in one.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
And twenty points in the other.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
The two poles obtained by The hist Chronicle reportedly show
Corning in big t trouble. Republican poll shows Corning down
by seventeen among likely Republican primary voters. A Democrat poll
shows him down more than twenty percentage points. John wayn
mccornyan campaign put out a statement on Wednesday saying the
Senator is one hundred ten percent committed to running a
(04:17):
vigorous reelection campaign. Huh wonder what that sounds like Ramon.
As the Chronicle reports, so far, his campaign has heavily
targeted having an affair?
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
What has heavily targeted Paxton?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Using social media to call the third term Republican a
fraud and alluding to Paxton having an affair that was
confirmed during his impeachment trial in the Texas Senate. The
new polling follows another survey earlier this spring by for
Fabrizio Lee and Associates, a firm used by the Trump campaign,
that found packs it up more than twenty percentage points
in a head to head battle with Cornyn. Oh, get
(04:56):
the old spots out. He's got, He's gonna have to
come back to Texas. You're like Gerald Ford eating his
Tamalies with the shucks on. He's gonna come back. I'm
so glad he gonna do his Mitt Romney. I really
like it here in Texas, the trees of the right height.
It's really good to be here with you good Texas people.
You know, Washington's just not like this. It's good to
(05:18):
be here with with my own people.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
John Wayne mccorny is one of us.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
His keychain has numerous loyalty cards, including Kroger's, CVS Specs,
el Abli Spaniol, Conunacento, Kes Moy Americano, Iroon Moss come
to Cindiente. He loves his guns so much it borders
on unnatural. He names them a Winchester thirty out six
called tex A Browning nine to mil Goes by Mac
(05:45):
the glock named Demetrius and his Pride and Joy peerline
a cult single Action thirty eight. He was given an
A plus by the NRA. He was written in red
on the top rid of the paper and circled there
was a little smiley face in the words great job.
He also got a ninety one from the Faith and
Freedom Coalition. But he's working real hard to get that
great up. You can take John waynemccorn out of Texas.
(06:08):
But you can't take Texas out of John Wayne mccornyn.
It's in his blood East Texas red and dirt runs
through his veins. When you vote at the twenty fourteen
mid term elections, and if you love America, you'll pull
the lever.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That says John Wayne mccornyn. He's one of.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
US President Trump and Ukraine Zelensky. According to white House
dot gov, his own wire. They call it the white
House Wire. It's their own associated press Reuter's replacement. President
Trump establishes rare earth minerals deal with Ukraine. I think
(06:52):
this portends well for the end of the Ukraine Russia War.
It's got vessent reported or posted thanks to President Trump's
tyreless efforts to secure a lasting piece. I'm glad to
announce the signing of today's historic economic partnership agreement between
the United States and Ukraine, establishing the US Ukraine Reconstruction
(07:15):
Investment Funds to help accelerate Ukraine's economic recovery. Economic security
is national security. We'll work closely with the government of
Ukraine to establish this fund, and we look forward to
quickly operationalizing this historic economic partnership for both the Ukrainian
and American people. Translation is that we're about to give
(07:36):
Ukraine a bunch of money. What Trump is doing is
saying I'm not just giving them money.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
We're going to get something back.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
We're going to get these rare earth minerals that we
so desperately need.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
There is a battle, a very very vicious.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Battle going on between us and the Chinese, and the
Chinese have control and actual possession of a large percentage
of America's rare earth minerals. And we can't do what
we need to do technologically and.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Operationally without him.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What's the name to say, Michael Buddy, I was once
strolling with my bride Eddie Martini and his bride Paul
Lambert and Nicole Lambert, Greg Gilberton.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
And what was only his girlfriend at the time. They
are married. Now this has been fifteen years. It has
been longer than that, though it's been seventeen years ago.
Probably no, it's been o seven.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
On Fifth Avenue. Imply deel Carmen beautiful street haven't been
in a long time. But Eddie loves plydeal Carmen and
we were his guests. Might have been the first time
I had gone to Plydeal Carmen. And you're walking along
and you don't feel like you're in Mexico. You feel
(09:01):
like you're in what you imagine Paris is like. But
Paris is not this nice. It's just beautiful bar. You're
walking on a street that I don't even remember if
it's paved, but you don't mind.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
It's just very rustic.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
And you're walking along the street and each bar has
a different concept, and each bar looks like it would
be the finest bar in a particular city. This will
be the most beautiful bar in Prague, and this will
be the most beautiful bar in Warsaw, and this will
be the most beautiful bar.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Do you know the capital of Lithuania? Romon what? No,
it's not. You don't know, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Isn't it weird that most of the white world in
Eastern Europe, no nobody even talks about them clearbyt when's
the last time you heard Latvia in the news? Where's
the last time you heard Lithuania in the news. Where's
the last time you heard Romania?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
U Czech Republic?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I just said Prague anyway, So we're walking along and
this song is wafting out maybe three bars away, and
the band nails it. I don't I don't know who
this band is, but it's one of those songs that
that's the perfect song for that moment.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's kind of a feel good song.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
You don't stop and think about what it stands for,
what it means. It's Toto, They're great. Nobody really knows
who sings it. Nobody really knows who Toto is. It's
just a song that is there and has always been there.
It's the perfect song to walk past. You continue your conversation.
That was the famed trip where an exchange occurred. There
(10:52):
was another guy that was with us on that trip
and he made the statement to Eddie. He said, Eddie,
they got viagra. So at that time, viagra wasn't easy
to get in this country, and there was a pharmacy,
there were there were You walk along on Fifth Avenue
(11:13):
and Ply del Carmen.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
This really it's not that the whole town is this great.
It's just this street. But it's a street.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You can walk it for an hour up and down there,
and each bar is so super duper clean, also beautiful, glorious.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
It's just it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And That was the tripe where another fellow on our
trip said, hey, Eddie, they got a pharmacy there.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They got viagra. Let's go get some viagra.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
And Eddie said, why would I want viagra?
Speaker 6 (11:42):
And he said, you can go all night. And Eddie said,
I don't want to go all night. I have thought
about that line. I have told that line. I mean,
it just it just he did panned it. It just boomed,
It just came out just like that.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
It was.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I just thought that was the funniest darn thing. I mean,
how funny is that? Uh No, I don't want to
go all night. That's that's not an upgrade for me. Man,
And I have thought about that line, you know, Ramon,
I don't know what to make of this. When I'm
ranto three AM stations. I went on all the manager trips. Remember,
(12:16):
we just gote to Mexico and we lived at Large.
We were at those all inclusive resorts. Now, I have
to tell you something I don't know. That's the only
time I've ever done I've never done cruises, and that's
the only time I've ever done an all inclusive resort.
And we did them several times, and I know it
was very very expensive.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Eddie did the deal and it was like a manager's retreat.
We go down there.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
The only thing bad about the all expensive resort, only
thing and I'm looking to give to us in the mouth,
is I didn't think the food was ever very good
because it doesn't have to be right. You're there, so
it's like the water, it's just there, whereas if you're
on the outside, you got to you got to lure
people in.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
But who's complaining? You know what a life?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
You wait up at whatever time, usually hungover, you go
strolling down.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
You go to the breakfastation. I love a good breakfastation.
You know.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Not eating until the evening has made me crave breakfast
more than I ever did in my life. If I
break my fast, it'll be for a brunch on a Saturday.
That's a treat to get to sleep in as late
as I can and then casually get up and I'll call,
We'll call our nieces and their husbands, and you know,
we'll go to a big one for us as Federal
(13:29):
American Grill. They do a phenomenal brunch there, and I
don't care who knows. I know it's probably not the
manliest thing in the world. But it's what I enjoy.
So I want to tell you Matt Brice makes a
phenomenal I'm not going to tell you no, because then you'll.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Start putting your pinky finger out. I gotta hear about it.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
You know what, everything you know about me ramon, you
know because I tell you and then I tell you
stuff and you make fun of me.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So I'm not going to tell you what drink holden.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
No, not a bloody mary I don't understand that. What
is the attraction of bloody Mary's? And then they got
a whole garden in there too? What is that about?
Who wants all that crap in there? Who wants all
that celery? I'll admit I like celery. I'm a texture guy.
I am meant to weigh six hundred pounds. It is
(14:16):
just by a whole lot of work that I do
not pay weigh six hundred pounds. But celery is one
of those things, you know, back in the day. Now
they got so many things you can work out. They
got a hundred drugs you can shoot up, They.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Got all these ways you can lose. But you know
more about food.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
But when I was younger, all you had was tab
You drink tab and eat celery. That's how you try
to lose weight. Oh, go for a run. That's the
other one, Go for a run. Activate probably was singing.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Along with this song. You know, you walking along and
you really get into it. You can't hold you can't
hold those notes. They're too high. Eat.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
So it's like a semi Hagar song in dreams Sammy
Hagar it was before Ai.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It's amazing that he could.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I'm not a semi Hagar fan, but that's an impossible
song to sing the way he sings, with the intensity,
the force.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
At which he sings that song.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Oh, you know, Jim is just over just a twitter
over the thought that I'm saying something nice about Van Hagar.
You know, he's just thrilled out of his mind. That's
the only one for five years, and Jim don't get excited.
So an American woman did it, Ramon, She finally did it.
A black American woman up and moved to Africa.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
You know, you get these black foot I'm African America.
I'm African America. I'm from Africa. You know in Africa
they got names like these. No, they don't.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I've been many times, have you, I've studied Africa. I've
studied from the colonial room to the modern incarnations, the
internal wars, the products of countries. There are no names
like that. I'm telling you right now. There are no names.
Not down in Botswana, not up in Egypt, Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti,
(16:15):
on the east coast of Tanzania down to Rwanda, or
on the west coast of Mauritania, southwestern Liberia. Those are
not names. Not in Chad, not in Nize. Be careful
on that one. Be careful on that one. You got
to run that one by me before you go huh.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yeah, that's how you pronounce it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
You get yourself in a whole lot of trouble and
in the country that means of a pertaining to Nize, Nigeria.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Anyway, So black woman moves to Africa for a better
life away from all this American racism because it's so
bad here, and then she released this video to tell
us all about her wonderful new life in Africa.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Y'all go to hell going to Africa. But y'all, I rather.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Go back to America and deal with the racism in
America before I sit here in Africa and deal.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
With the rivalry, the fall, the stamps, the too expensive,
the not having those snacks, not having no food, the electricity,
the hot water, the uh, what's the paul that be
coming down?
Speaker 5 (17:33):
The animals?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Is scorings outside the house? Can you boo set up
as a low as of go okay? Can you rewind
that sounds like what to see in the background, Just rewinded.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
Not having those snacks, not having no food, the electricity.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
The pot water, the uh, what's the paul.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
That be coming down? Anmost schoolings outside the house.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
It's big ass spiders, it's big ass lizards, colorful zess
you ain't never seen before.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
She doesn't like how long it takes to get her
lights back on when she doesn't make the bill.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
That's really the problem growing.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
With you, sleeping with you, all of people trying to
scam when you go outside thinking you're rich, so they're
trying to get more money off of you. I'm really
trying to wrap my head around it. I'm really trying
to wrap my head around how are Americans coming to
Africa and being happy? Please calm it down below, because
for me, I'm ready to go. And I always used
(18:36):
to say, if it's up to me, it will be,
and I'm going to go out to Africa and make
it happen. No, I don't want you. I want to
take my businesses back to America. I want to open
up shop back.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
She's going to take her businesses back to America. Wonder
what her businesses are. I'm intrigued and and I wonder
if she has opened them in Africa and how that went.
Not surprising. She's a big girl. I mean, she's a
really really big girl. So her caloric intake is probably
(19:08):
exceeding your average market you would see on the streets
in in uh wherever in Africa she is. She doesn't
tell us the country. You know, I have a I
have a friend.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
That name named Jason Long, and he took his company
public a little while ago, a company called land Bridge,
and it's an all in it's an all in gas play.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
It's a midstream company.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
And they got sands, and they got all the things
you would expect transportation of of uh, you know, pipelines
and the like. But he said, you know, the thing
that is changing the economics of deals in the Permian
and beyond now that that was not the case twenty
years ago, is it takes.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I hope I get this right.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It takes six hundred contiguous acres to be able to
to be able to produce one gigawatt per day. Six
hundred contiguous acres. And he's got hundreds of thousands of
acres out there. And this was hundreds of thousands of
acres that was basically just surface rights were useless. You
(20:16):
don't you know, this is Donny Meismer out there driving
for four hours to look at a pipe and turn around,
driving four hours and there might be a dead lizard
on the road. There's nothing out there right, that searing
sun coming in at oasis. You know, the eagles playing
in the background. It's not pretty, it's it's desolate, it's dry,
it's dusty. Well, now you got these deals. These data
(20:42):
is everything. Now data is everything. And so you've got
these companies coming in and they need X number of
contiguous acres and you can where do you find, you know,
five thousand acres within two hours of Houston.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
You don't what he has it?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And think what it would cost, and he's got hundreds
of thousands of it. Anyway, she's gonna take all her
businesses and open them up in America.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
Go ahead, Thenni's office and all the stuff that I
was gonna do out here in America, sety electricity and
the only something all electricity. Get her office when we
don't pay the bill, and we got it something. Now
we got to prepaid electricity, so we forget to pay
the bill. We put some money on her prepaid thing,
and then put some money on in two minutes.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
In less than two minutes right here.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Didn't come home for fourteen hours yesterday.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I can't deal.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
I love the people, don't get me wrong. When I'm outside,
I'm having fun. I love people. When I come back
to reality, when you come back home, home is with
the heartest she was.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Going back home last.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
She finally fulfilled her dream of going back to Africa.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I won't go back to Africa. What I won't.
Speaker 9 (21:58):
Go back to ape back to Africa.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
You ain't ever been to Africa. I'm Africa and America.
D that's just a word.
Speaker 9 (22:07):
They don't mean nothing.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
I'm from Africa.
Speaker 9 (22:10):
No, you're not you from Louisiana, you dumb ass. Watch
you said, let me explain something to you. Don't make
it hard. No, it's not gonna be hard.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Look here, where was you born Louisaffer. Where did you
go up at?
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Louisanda? So why you gonna thank you? From Africa? I'm
an African American. God, look here, there's not one democracy
in Africa worth living in. The people over there they
live in mud huts.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
They ain't got running why they ain't got electricity, they
ain't voting, They don't got no freedom or nothing.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Africa not all that.
Speaker 9 (22:49):
But I'm African American. Shut up here, let me explain
something to you. But we're a luckyt one. We got
the hell out of Africa.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
As a bad dude. The Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Prior to the Eagles, Glenna Fry and JD Southern John
David Southern or Southern.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
If somebody just told me the other day they went
to school with JD. Souther? Uh knew him? Knew them? Well?
Was that Larry Hoffmann? Somebody told me they went to
school with JD. Souther.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
And if I had known that when JD was alive,
I could have weaseled an introduction there. I mean, forget
all the music JD. Souther slept with Linda Ronstadt. Now
I'm gonna hear from some people who don't understand the
meaning of what I just said, and they're gonna go Ronston.
Ain't that vine. Linda Ronstack could be eight hundred pounds.
(23:47):
She's lendham by gum Ronstad. Do you un you have
any clue that you are in the presence of greatness
when you are near Linda Ronstadt? And he was laid
all upon it anyway. So Glenn Fry and j D
Salther had a band that was originally called JD. Wasn't
(24:09):
j D at that point that was part of his
musical image, his transformation. At that point they were John,
David and Glenn, which sounded like three members, but he's
only two.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And then they added.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
David Jackson, so John David Salther and David Jackson and
Glenn were John, David and Glenn. But JD wanted to
be John anyway, so they decided that that name just
didn't fit. You already had Crosbie Stills in Nash and
Emerson Lake Compone. Had you had these bands with the
(24:46):
three names Peter, Paul, and Mary, and that was popular.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
At the time, late sixties eiry seventies.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
So they come up with the name Long Branch Pennywhistle,
which I've always thought was one of the coolest names.
And you know they were sitting around smoking pot and
hi on lord knows what all drugs. This is late sixties,
early seventies, and long Branch Pennywhistle sounded like one of
those whimsical terms John Lennon would throw out for a.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Name that was just funny.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
So I that had been swirling around in my head
for months.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Long Branch pennywhistle. What a great name.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Long Branch penny Whistler just kept saying it, and then
I was I went deep one night on Bare Necked
Ladies and no the band and they have a version
of I don't know if it was Brian Wilson or
it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
One week it was uh, oh if.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I had a million dollars, and they had, Oh, shoot,
what's the guy's name. He's a legendary music arranger, producer, performer,
And he said, I think it's Stephen Page said uh,
and now, so and so whatever the guy's name was, David,
I guess it doesn't matter. So and so on the
(26:03):
Pennywhistle and I said, oh, there's pennywhistle used.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Un ironically, and he said, we're joining on the next song.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
The legendary so and so David so and so on
the pennywhistle, and about halfway through the song, this dude
he looks like Larry David. He's kind of in the
back and he's you know what penny whistle looks like.
It's it's a little bit. It's it's a little bitty
tiny flute. I mean it is. It is. It is
(26:34):
not much bigger around than a pencil, and it's not
necessarily real long, but it's tiny. You could you could, uh,
you know, buskers would use them because you could just
put in your coat, easily, easy to carry around.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Right, pennywhistle. And it's kind of like a kazoo.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
You got it with you at all times, so you
can always play it, except I think it requires a
little more talent. And I got thinking about how awesome
this term was, and then I come across a penny whistle. No,
it's not a skin flute.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
What is wrong with you? I'm trying to tell you
know what.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Let's forget it. I'm not gonna finish my story. And
now everybody out there is wondering what happened. I do
want to welcome to the program, our newest show sponsor,
and you folks are so good to support our sponsors.
Before I do that, I got a I got an
email last night from a fellow that knew a dear
(27:29):
friend of mine at the RCC, A fella named John Vincent.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
And John had John. Some of y'all may remember this.
This was when we first opened the RCC.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I'd been speaking for them for about two years, and
they had a CNC machine company. They sold CNC machines
what we would now call like three D printing type stuff.
But that was a big deal back in twenty eleven,
twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
That was a really really big deal. And John Vincent
loved him some.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Michael Berry and I loved me some John Vincent and
I remember we were at the RCC one night and
he thought his wife had a terminal cancer and she called,
she going in for a second opinion, and she called
and he screamed because it was clear she didn't have
terminal cancer. And then he wept like a baby. And
that wouldn't mean anything unless you knew that John Vincent
(28:18):
was probably six two sixty, solid dude, always a big smile,
just a heart of gold. Anyway, I got an email
from mutual friend of ours. I said, I think you'd
like to know. You know, John passed away few years
ago a heart attack and unexpectedly shocked all of us.
He said, I think you'd like to know John's widow
needed some help with a show sponsor, and I've sent
(28:41):
her to your show sponsor.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
And so I started emailing last night.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I got Robert Reis, who's the sales rep who handles
this particular show sponsor, And I just got a message
a few minutes ago.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Her issue has been resolved.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
All is good, everything is I love doing that, folks
it A friend of mine said, you get into that
way too much.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
I do.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
I do?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
You know we have so little control over this life.
You know, your mom dies, your brother dies. You know,
you're fatter and you want to be You're slower and
you want to be You're not.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
You got a headache. Whatever.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That's one of the things I can do. I can
solve problems for people. And I'm helping a show sponsor
in the process, and listeners send me emails all day
from you know I work.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You connected me.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
It's great if I can connect you directly, because then
I can tell the story of you know, here's what
this person needs or whatever, but that none of this model,
none of the none of the triangle offense works if
you folks didn't come to me and let me help you,
And I appreciate that so much
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Till Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
I returned to this chamber tonight to report that America's
momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,
our confidence is back, and the American Dream is surging
bigger and better than ever before. This will be our
(00:37):
greatest era. With God's help, over the next four years,
we are going to lead this nation even higher, and
we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic,
and most dominant civilization ever to exist on the face
of this Earth. We are going to create the highest
(00:58):
quality of life, the safest and wealthiest and healthiest and
most vital communities anywhere in the world.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We are going to conquer the.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Vast frontiers of science, and we're going to lead humanity
into space and plant the American flag on the planet
Mars and even far beyond. And through it all, we
(01:45):
are going to rediscover the unstoppable power of the American spirit,
and we are going to renew unlimited promise of the
American Dream.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Every single day.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
We will stand up and we will fight, fight, fight
for the country our citizens believe in, and for the
country our people deserve. My fellow Americans, get ready for
an incredible future because the Golden Age of America has
only just begun. It will be like nothing that has
(02:19):
ever been seen before. Thank you, God bless you, and
God bless.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
You.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Were to ask the media.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
About Attorney General Ken Paxton challenging John Wayne mccornyn when
you know, well, people don't like past. You know, they
impeached him in the House. If you were to ask
Jounk Dade, Dustin Burroughs, the Republican insiders, the big money
(03:07):
boys of folks that brought Nikki Haley to Texas during
the primary of last year, that say, oh no, he.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Can't he can't beat John Wayne mccornyn. He can't do it.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
If you ask you the people who will vote in
the Republican primary, see this is they don't ever give
voice to what you're saying. And it's not until it
happens because your candidates can't get their name out, they
can't raise the money.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But when they can, and when they do breaking news.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Two internal polls reportedly show John Wayne mccornan down by
seventeen points to Ken Paxton in one.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
And twenty points in the other.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
The two poles obtained by The hist Chronicle reportedly show
Corning in big t trouble. Republican poll shows Corning down
by seventeen among likely Republican primary voters. A Democrat poll
shows him down more than twenty percentage points. John wayn
mccornyan campaign put out a statement on Wednesday saying the
Senator is one hundred ten percent committed to running a
(04:17):
vigorous reelection campaign. Huh wonder what that sounds like Ramon.
As the Chronicle reports, so far, his campaign has heavily
targeted having an affair?
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
What has heavily targeted Paxton?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Using social media to call the third term Republican a
fraud and alluding to Paxton having an affair that was
confirmed during his impeachment trial in the Texas Senate. The
new polling follows another survey earlier this spring by for
Fabrizio Lee and Associates, a firm used by the Trump campaign,
that found packs it up more than twenty percentage points
in a head to head battle with Cornyn. Oh, get
(04:56):
the old spots out. He's got, He's gonna have to
come back to Texas. You're like Gerald Ford eating his
Tamalies with the shucks on. He's gonna come back. I'm
so glad he gonna do his Mitt Romney. I really
like it here in Texas, the trees of the right height.
It's really good to be here with you good Texas people.
You know, Washington's just not like this. It's good to
(05:18):
be here with with my own people.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
John Wayne mccorny is one of us.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
His keychain has numerous loyalty cards, including Kroger's, CVS Specs,
el Abli Spaniol, Conunacento, Kes Moy Americano, Iroon Moss come
to Cindiente. He loves his guns so much it borders
on unnatural. He names them a Winchester thirty out six
called tex A Browning nine to mil Goes by Mac
(05:45):
the glock named Demetrius and his Pride and Joy peerline
a cult single Action thirty eight. He was given an
A plus by the NRA. He was written in red
on the top rid of the paper and circled there
was a little smiley face in the words great job.
He also got a ninety one from the Faith and
Freedom Coalition. But he's working real hard to get that
great up. You can take John waynemccorn out of Texas.
(06:08):
But you can't take Texas out of John Wayne mccornyn.
It's in his blood East Texas red and dirt runs
through his veins. When you vote at the twenty fourteen
mid term elections, and if you love America, you'll pull
the lever.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That says John Wayne mccornyn. He's one of.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
US President Trump and Ukraine Zelensky. According to white House
dot gov, his own wire. They call it the white
House Wire. It's their own associated press Reuter's replacement. President
Trump establishes rare earth minerals deal with Ukraine. I think
(06:52):
this portends well for the end of the Ukraine Russia War.
It's got vessent reported or posted thanks to President Trump's
tyreless efforts to secure a lasting piece. I'm glad to
announce the signing of today's historic economic partnership agreement between
the United States and Ukraine, establishing the US Ukraine Reconstruction
(07:15):
Investment Funds to help accelerate Ukraine's economic recovery. Economic security
is national security. We'll work closely with the government of
Ukraine to establish this fund, and we look forward to
quickly operationalizing this historic economic partnership for both the Ukrainian
and American people. Translation is that we're about to give
(07:36):
Ukraine a bunch of money. What Trump is doing is
saying I'm not just giving them money.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
We're going to get something back.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
We're going to get these rare earth minerals that we
so desperately need.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
There is a battle, a very very vicious.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Battle going on between us and the Chinese, and the
Chinese have control and actual possession of a large percentage
of America's rare earth minerals. And we can't do what
we need to do technologically and.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Operationally without him.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What's the name to say, Michael Buddy, I was once
strolling with my bride Eddie Martini and his bride Paul
Lambert and Nicole Lambert, Greg Gilberton.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
And what was only his girlfriend at the time. They
are married. Now this has been fifteen years. It has
been longer than that, though it's been seventeen years ago.
Probably no, it's been o seven.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
On Fifth Avenue. Imply deel Carmen beautiful street haven't been
in a long time. But Eddie loves plydeal Carmen and
we were his guests. Might have been the first time
I had gone to Plydeal Carmen. And you're walking along
and you don't feel like you're in Mexico. You feel
(09:01):
like you're in what you imagine Paris is like. But
Paris is not this nice. It's just beautiful bar. You're
walking on a street that I don't even remember if
it's paved, but you don't mind.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
It's just very rustic.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
And you're walking along the street and each bar has
a different concept, and each bar looks like it would
be the finest bar in a particular city. This will
be the most beautiful bar in Prague, and this will
be the most beautiful bar in Warsaw, and this will
be the most beautiful bar.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Do you know the capital of Lithuania? Romon what? No,
it's not. You don't know, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Isn't it weird that most of the white world in
Eastern Europe, no nobody even talks about them clearbyt when's
the last time you heard Latvia in the news? Where's
the last time you heard Lithuania in the news. Where's
the last time you heard Romania?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
U Czech Republic?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I just said Prague anyway, So we're walking along and
this song is wafting out maybe three bars away, and
the band nails it. I don't I don't know who
this band is, but it's one of those songs that
that's the perfect song for that moment.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's kind of a feel good song.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
You don't stop and think about what it stands for,
what it means. It's Toto, They're great. Nobody really knows
who sings it. Nobody really knows who Toto is. It's
just a song that is there and has always been there.
It's the perfect song to walk past. You continue your conversation.
That was the famed trip where an exchange occurred. There
(10:52):
was another guy that was with us on that trip
and he made the statement to Eddie. He said, Eddie,
they got viagra. So at that time, viagra wasn't easy
to get in this country, and there was a pharmacy,
there were there were You walk along on Fifth Avenue
(11:13):
and Ply del Carmen.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
This really it's not that the whole town is this great.
It's just this street. But it's a street.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You can walk it for an hour up and down there,
and each bar is so super duper clean, also beautiful, glorious.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
It's just it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And That was the tripe where another fellow on our
trip said, hey, Eddie, they got a pharmacy there.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They got viagra. Let's go get some viagra.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
And Eddie said, why would I want viagra?
Speaker 6 (11:42):
And he said, you can go all night. And Eddie said,
I don't want to go all night. I have thought
about that line. I have told that line. I mean,
it just it just he did panned it. It just boomed,
It just came out just like that.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
It was.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I just thought that was the funniest darn thing. I mean,
how funny is that? Uh No, I don't want to
go all night. That's that's not an upgrade for me. Man,
And I have thought about that line, you know, Ramon,
I don't know what to make of this. When I'm
ranto three AM stations. I went on all the manager trips. Remember,
(12:16):
we just gote to Mexico and we lived at Large.
We were at those all inclusive resorts. Now, I have
to tell you something I don't know. That's the only
time I've ever done I've never done cruises, and that's
the only time I've ever done an all inclusive resort.
And we did them several times, and I know it
was very very expensive.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Eddie did the deal and it was like a manager's retreat.
We go down there.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
The only thing bad about the all expensive resort, only
thing and I'm looking to give to us in the mouth,
is I didn't think the food was ever very good
because it doesn't have to be right. You're there, so
it's like the water, it's just there, whereas if you're
on the outside, you got to you got to lure
people in.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
But who's complaining? You know what a life?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
You wait up at whatever time, usually hungover, you go
strolling down.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
You go to the breakfastation. I love a good breakfastation.
You know.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Not eating until the evening has made me crave breakfast
more than I ever did in my life. If I
break my fast, it'll be for a brunch on a Saturday.
That's a treat to get to sleep in as late
as I can and then casually get up and I'll call,
We'll call our nieces and their husbands, and you know,
we'll go to a big one for us as Federal
(13:29):
American Grill. They do a phenomenal brunch there, and I
don't care who knows. I know it's probably not the
manliest thing in the world. But it's what I enjoy.
So I want to tell you Matt Brice makes a
phenomenal I'm not going to tell you no, because then you'll.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Start putting your pinky finger out. I gotta hear about it.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
You know what, everything you know about me ramon, you
know because I tell you and then I tell you
stuff and you make fun of me.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So I'm not going to tell you what drink holden.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
No, not a bloody mary I don't understand that. What
is the attraction of bloody Mary's? And then they got
a whole garden in there too? What is that about?
Who wants all that crap in there? Who wants all
that celery? I'll admit I like celery. I'm a texture guy.
I am meant to weigh six hundred pounds. It is
(14:16):
just by a whole lot of work that I do
not pay weigh six hundred pounds. But celery is one
of those things, you know, back in the day. Now
they got so many things you can work out. They
got a hundred drugs you can shoot up, They.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Got all these ways you can lose. But you know
more about food.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
But when I was younger, all you had was tab
You drink tab and eat celery. That's how you try
to lose weight. Oh, go for a run. That's the
other one, Go for a run. Activate probably was singing.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Along with this song. You know, you walking along and
you really get into it. You can't hold you can't
hold those notes. They're too high. Eat.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
So it's like a semi Hagar song in dreams Sammy
Hagar it was before Ai.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It's amazing that he could.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I'm not a semi Hagar fan, but that's an impossible
song to sing the way he sings, with the intensity,
the force.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
At which he sings that song.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Oh, you know, Jim is just over just a twitter
over the thought that I'm saying something nice about Van Hagar.
You know, he's just thrilled out of his mind. That's
the only one for five years, and Jim don't get excited.
So an American woman did it, Ramon, She finally did it.
A black American woman up and moved to Africa.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
You know, you get these black foot I'm African America.
I'm African America. I'm from Africa. You know in Africa
they got names like these. No, they don't.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I've been many times, have you, I've studied Africa. I've
studied from the colonial room to the modern incarnations, the
internal wars, the products of countries. There are no names
like that. I'm telling you right now. There are no names.
Not down in Botswana, not up in Egypt, Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti,
(16:15):
on the east coast of Tanzania down to Rwanda, or
on the west coast of Mauritania, southwestern Liberia. Those are
not names. Not in Chad, not in Nize. Be careful
on that one. Be careful on that one. You got
to run that one by me before you go huh.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yeah, that's how you pronounce it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
You get yourself in a whole lot of trouble and
in the country that means of a pertaining to Nize, Nigeria.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Anyway, So black woman moves to Africa for a better
life away from all this American racism because it's so
bad here, and then she released this video to tell
us all about her wonderful new life in Africa.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Y'all go to hell going to Africa. But y'all, I rather.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Go back to America and deal with the racism in
America before I sit here in Africa and deal.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
With the rivalry, the fall, the stamps, the too expensive,
the not having those snacks, not having no food, the electricity,
the hot water, the uh, what's the paul that be
coming down?
Speaker 5 (17:33):
The animals?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Is scorings outside the house? Can you boo set up
as a low as of go okay? Can you rewind
that sounds like what to see in the background, Just rewinded.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
Not having those snacks, not having no food, the electricity.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
The pot water, the uh, what's the paul.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
That be coming down? Anmost schoolings outside the house.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
It's big ass spiders, it's big ass lizards, colorful zess
you ain't never seen before.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
She doesn't like how long it takes to get her
lights back on when she doesn't make the bill.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
That's really the problem growing.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
With you, sleeping with you, all of people trying to
scam when you go outside thinking you're rich, so they're
trying to get more money off of you. I'm really
trying to wrap my head around it. I'm really trying
to wrap my head around how are Americans coming to
Africa and being happy? Please calm it down below, because
for me, I'm ready to go. And I always used
(18:36):
to say, if it's up to me, it will be,
and I'm going to go out to Africa and make
it happen. No, I don't want you. I want to
take my businesses back to America. I want to open
up shop back.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
She's going to take her businesses back to America. Wonder
what her businesses are. I'm intrigued and and I wonder
if she has opened them in Africa and how that went.
Not surprising. She's a big girl. I mean, she's a
really really big girl. So her caloric intake is probably
(19:08):
exceeding your average market you would see on the streets
in in uh wherever in Africa she is. She doesn't
tell us the country. You know, I have a I
have a friend.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
That name named Jason Long, and he took his company
public a little while ago, a company called land Bridge,
and it's an all in it's an all in gas play.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
It's a midstream company.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
And they got sands, and they got all the things
you would expect transportation of of uh, you know, pipelines
and the like. But he said, you know, the thing
that is changing the economics of deals in the Permian
and beyond now that that was not the case twenty
years ago, is it takes.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I hope I get this right.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It takes six hundred contiguous acres to be able to
to be able to produce one gigawatt per day. Six
hundred contiguous acres. And he's got hundreds of thousands of
acres out there. And this was hundreds of thousands of
acres that was basically just surface rights were useless. You
(20:16):
don't you know, this is Donny Meismer out there driving
for four hours to look at a pipe and turn around,
driving four hours and there might be a dead lizard
on the road. There's nothing out there right, that searing
sun coming in at oasis. You know, the eagles playing
in the background. It's not pretty, it's it's desolate, it's dry,
it's dusty. Well, now you got these deals. These data
(20:42):
is everything. Now data is everything. And so you've got
these companies coming in and they need X number of
contiguous acres and you can where do you find, you know,
five thousand acres within two hours of Houston.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
You don't what he has it?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And think what it would cost, and he's got hundreds
of thousands of it. Anyway, she's gonna take all her
businesses and open them up in America.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
Go ahead, Thenni's office and all the stuff that I
was gonna do out here in America, sety electricity and
the only something all electricity. Get her office when we
don't pay the bill, and we got it something. Now
we got to prepaid electricity, so we forget to pay
the bill. We put some money on her prepaid thing,
and then put some money on in two minutes.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
In less than two minutes right here.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Didn't come home for fourteen hours yesterday.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I can't deal.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
I love the people, don't get me wrong. When I'm outside,
I'm having fun. I love people. When I come back
to reality, when you come back home, home is with
the heartest she was.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Going back home last.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
She finally fulfilled her dream of going back to Africa.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I won't go back to Africa. What I won't.
Speaker 9 (21:58):
Go back to ape back to Africa.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
You ain't ever been to Africa. I'm Africa and America.
D that's just a word.
Speaker 9 (22:07):
They don't mean nothing.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
I'm from Africa.
Speaker 9 (22:10):
No, you're not you from Louisiana, you dumb ass. Watch
you said, let me explain something to you. Don't make
it hard. No, it's not gonna be hard.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Look here, where was you born Louisaffer. Where did you
go up at?
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Louisanda? So why you gonna thank you? From Africa? I'm
an African American. God, look here, there's not one democracy
in Africa worth living in. The people over there they
live in mud huts.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
They ain't got running why they ain't got electricity, they
ain't voting, They don't got no freedom or nothing.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Africa not all that.
Speaker 9 (22:49):
But I'm African American. Shut up here, let me explain
something to you. But we're a luckyt one. We got
the hell out of Africa.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
As a bad dude. The Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Prior to the Eagles, Glenna Fry and JD Southern John
David Southern or Southern.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
If somebody just told me the other day they went
to school with JD. Souther? Uh knew him? Knew them? Well?
Was that Larry Hoffmann? Somebody told me they went to
school with JD. Souther.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
And if I had known that when JD was alive,
I could have weaseled an introduction there. I mean, forget
all the music JD. Souther slept with Linda Ronstadt. Now
I'm gonna hear from some people who don't understand the
meaning of what I just said, and they're gonna go Ronston.
Ain't that vine. Linda Ronstack could be eight hundred pounds.
(23:47):
She's lendham by gum Ronstad. Do you un you have
any clue that you are in the presence of greatness
when you are near Linda Ronstadt? And he was laid
all upon it anyway. So Glenn Fry and j D
Salther had a band that was originally called JD. Wasn't
(24:09):
j D at that point that was part of his
musical image, his transformation. At that point they were John,
David and Glenn, which sounded like three members, but he's
only two.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And then they added.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
David Jackson, so John David Salther and David Jackson and
Glenn were John, David and Glenn. But JD wanted to
be John anyway, so they decided that that name just
didn't fit. You already had Crosbie Stills in Nash and
Emerson Lake Compone. Had you had these bands with the
(24:46):
three names Peter, Paul, and Mary, and that was popular.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
At the time, late sixties eiry seventies.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
So they come up with the name Long Branch Pennywhistle,
which I've always thought was one of the coolest names.
And you know they were sitting around smoking pot and
hi on lord knows what all drugs. This is late sixties,
early seventies, and long Branch Pennywhistle sounded like one of
those whimsical terms John Lennon would throw out for a.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Name that was just funny.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
So I that had been swirling around in my head
for months.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Long Branch pennywhistle. What a great name.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Long Branch penny Whistler just kept saying it, and then
I was I went deep one night on Bare Necked
Ladies and no the band and they have a version
of I don't know if it was Brian Wilson or
it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
One week it was uh, oh if.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I had a million dollars, and they had, Oh, shoot,
what's the guy's name. He's a legendary music arranger, producer, performer,
And he said, I think it's Stephen Page said uh,
and now, so and so whatever the guy's name was, David,
I guess it doesn't matter. So and so on the
(26:03):
Pennywhistle and I said, oh, there's pennywhistle used.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Un ironically, and he said, we're joining on the next song.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
The legendary so and so David so and so on
the pennywhistle, and about halfway through the song, this dude
he looks like Larry David. He's kind of in the
back and he's you know what penny whistle looks like.
It's it's a little bit. It's it's a little bitty
tiny flute. I mean it is. It is. It is
(26:34):
not much bigger around than a pencil, and it's not
necessarily real long, but it's tiny. You could you could, uh,
you know, buskers would use them because you could just
put in your coat, easily, easy to carry around.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Right, pennywhistle. And it's kind of like a kazoo.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
You got it with you at all times, so you
can always play it, except I think it requires a
little more talent. And I got thinking about how awesome
this term was, and then I come across a penny whistle. No,
it's not a skin flute.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
What is wrong with you? I'm trying to tell you
know what.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Let's forget it. I'm not gonna finish my story. And
now everybody out there is wondering what happened. I do
want to welcome to the program, our newest show sponsor,
and you folks are so good to support our sponsors.
Before I do that, I got a I got an
email last night from a fellow that knew a dear
(27:29):
friend of mine at the RCC, A fella named John Vincent.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
And John had John. Some of y'all may remember this.
This was when we first opened the RCC.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I'd been speaking for them for about two years, and
they had a CNC machine company. They sold CNC machines
what we would now call like three D printing type stuff.
But that was a big deal back in twenty eleven,
twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
That was a really really big deal. And John Vincent
loved him some.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Michael Berry and I loved me some John Vincent and
I remember we were at the RCC one night and
he thought his wife had a terminal cancer and she called,
she going in for a second opinion, and she called
and he screamed because it was clear she didn't have
terminal cancer. And then he wept like a baby. And
that wouldn't mean anything unless you knew that John Vincent
(28:18):
was probably six two sixty, solid dude, always a big smile,
just a heart of gold. Anyway, I got an email
from mutual friend of ours. I said, I think you'd
like to know. You know, John passed away few years
ago a heart attack and unexpectedly shocked all of us.
He said, I think you'd like to know John's widow
needed some help with a show sponsor, and I've sent
(28:41):
her to your show sponsor.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
And so I started emailing last night.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I got Robert Reis, who's the sales rep who handles
this particular show sponsor, And I just got a message
a few minutes ago.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Her issue has been resolved.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
All is good, everything is I love doing that, folks
it A friend of mine said, you get into that
way too much.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
I do.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
I do?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
You know we have so little control over this life.
You know, your mom dies, your brother dies. You know,
you're fatter and you want to be You're slower and
you want to be You're not.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
You got a headache. Whatever.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That's one of the things I can do. I can
solve problems for people. And I'm helping a show sponsor
in the process, and listeners send me emails all day
from you know I work.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You connected me.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
It's great if I can connect you directly, because then
I can tell the story of you know, here's what
this person needs or whatever, but that none of this model,
none of the none of the triangle offense works if
you folks didn't come to me and let me help you,
And I appreciate that so much
