Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
So Michael Arry Show is on the air. How many
(00:44):
cavities do you think you've.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Had in your life?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
How many cavities you think you've had an your life?
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Zero?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Have you ever had any.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Medical procedures that required you to use sedation? Dental procedures
it required you to use sedation?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Ever? Have you been to the dentist?
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Hum?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Because doctor Witz it this.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Is funny because so you drive to the Woodlands to
see Guy Lewis.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Good on you.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I like that drive if you're making that drive. If
I've got something to do in the Woodlands and I
leave in between shows, I go up and I knock
it out and I get back on the road fast.
I enjoy that ride. Of course, I like long drives
anyway in the middle of the day. But the other
(01:42):
option is I go in the evening once it clears
down a little, and that's enjoyable. I do not enjoy
that five o'clock traffic going forty five north at all.
The reason I ask is I saw this story, and
you have to feel sorry for this because he's clearly
got a problem. But I'm just curious about it. The
(02:04):
headline is Houston dentist caught huffing and driving with one
hundred and seven canisters of laughing gas in car. Popos say, now,
I don't know how big a canister is, right, but
let's just assume, you know the airplane sized liquor bottles.
Let's assume you really like Jim Beam or Bare Fight
(02:27):
whiskey for that matter, and you go. You know, it's
a long flight. I'd like to bring me some drinks
with me. Even if that was the size of the
bottle and you had one hundred and seven of them,
you're prepared to just get tore up.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I don't know how much damage a canister of laughing
gas can do, but one hundred and seven feels excessive.
It feels very, very excessive. So here goes the story.
A Houston dentist and university professor, Christopher Peddler has been
(03:06):
arrested once again. That's a bad way to start the story.
You're going, oh, man, y'all are telling it? Can we
can this one just stand on its own? Can we
not tell I've been arrested twice before. A Houston dentist
and university professor, Christopher Peddler has been arrested once again.
(03:27):
Because if you've ever had an addict in your family,
you know that when that call comes in and they
go oh uncle, so and so you go oh not
again but partly, And I must say, there's a certain
I don't want to say comfort, there's a certain numbness
(03:48):
to it. So there's no shock. You're aware there's a problem.
You just know that this is the next phase it.
A Houston dnist and university professor, Christopher Peddler, has been
arrested once again, this time with more than one hundred
canisters of nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas. While
(04:08):
the chemical is frequently used in dentistry, authorities alleged Pedler
was huffing the gas while driving. According to court records,
Pedler has now been charged three times since October.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Dude, you are eat up on it.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You maybe need to. Couldn't he just stay home? I mean,
if he's sitting at home, it's going to take a
lot longer to get to it. But hold on this,
this gets more interesting for possession of nitrous oxide, a
regulated gas. In two of those instances, he reportedly had
over one hundred canisters in his possession. This dude, is
(04:50):
not playing around. He's not just gonna you know, he's
not trying to get a buzz I gotta think you
got Why do you have that many in your possession?
Can't you store them somewhere? According to court records, Peddler
has now been charged three times since October for possession
of nitrous oxide A regular. Oh I did that lot.
(05:10):
The thirty nine year old spent Sunday night in custody
after being stopped in the Heights Harris County Precinct. One
constable stated that Peddler was clocked speeding on West nineteenth
and initially refused to pull over. See that that's the deal, right,
(05:31):
If you're gonna be huffed and you're gonna be Jack Doe,
don't drive too fast and don't drive too slow.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
They never catch you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
It's never that they go. It's not like your officer
is driving along and he's like KKD four nine.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
E HPD Houston.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
I got a car driving under the influence of nitroosoxide.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I'm gonna turn this around. I'm on Heights westbound to nineteenth.
Speaker 7 (06:03):
Come on, right, that's just not happening. It's that you're
speeding or you got a tail light that I'm not
saying drive around helping nitrous gas, but I am saying
check your break lights, don't speed block speeding on West
(06:27):
nineteenth refused to pull over. When he stopped half a
mile later, the deputy discovered one hundred and seven canisters
of nitrous socks out in the backseat of his vehicle.
One canister was reportedly ice cold and attached to a mask,
suggesting recent use.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
So how does that work? Does he pull you over?
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Sir?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Do you mind if I check your car? What do
we have here? An entire warehouse of laughing gas? How
does that work?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Is?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Ah, sir, I'm gonna I'm gonna need to put you
in customer marm. Excuse get you stand right over there, Okay,
I'm gonna need to do an inventory on these laughing
gas canisters?
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Got it?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
KKD four nine e HPD Houston.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
I'm gonna be a will I got an inventory all
these canisters one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
ten canisters of laughing gas on the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I mean one hundred and seven takes a while to count.
And what do you do? Do you bag them?
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Tag them?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Do you do you stack them up? Where do you
put them. While you're counting them, do you go from
the backseat to the front seat.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I mean, think about this, officer, boy, I'm gonna need
some backup over here.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I have somewhere between ninety and one hundred and thirty
laughing gas canisters.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
I need to count up.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I mean, we'll take your word for it. That had
to take a wow. And you know what, I bet
the buzz wears off. You know when that buzz wears off,
you're like, hey, I'll tell you right now, because I
counted when I stole them, it's one hundred and seven.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
You think you could spare one for me? Just could
you just give me a real quick hit.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
While I'm over here because I'm not finding this whole
process very funny.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
The Michael Berry Show, I can't help you. Then you
found out to you.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
I'll come back to the Huffing story, but I want
to make sure I get this in. The Honduran consulate
in Houston says they've been overwhelmed not with people trying
to get into the country, with illegal Hondurans trying to
get out. They say that they're trying to self deport.
(09:03):
They say that the demand is so high they're bringing
in more staff to handle the growing number of people
seeking help to return to Honduras. This is one of
those self fulfilling prophecies. It becomes the case that when
(09:26):
you start the process, it creates its own momentum. You
can't deport us all, don't have to a lot of
you will leave on your own once you understand there's
no future here if you're illegal, A lot of you
will up and leave on your own. How's that you
(09:47):
can't deport us all? Sound now?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Khou overcome with emotion, Clement is at a loss for words.
He came to the US chasing the American dream. Now
he faces the heartbreak of saying goodbye to his fourteen
year old daughter.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I'm sure of what's next.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
If here's deportation and leaving his daughter alone in the US.
At the Huntering Consulate, he's asking for help to send
her back to family, hoping she'll be safe. She says
she's even afraid to go to school. Let's see, she
feared her dad would be taking away, leaving her alone.
(10:30):
And she's not the only one feeling this anxiety and Houston,
during Consul General, says more families are choosing to return
home voluntarily, including Ismaida and her two children. Ismaya fears
of being separated from her children. She arrived in the
US three years ago seeking asylum, and next month she
(10:52):
faces her first court hearing fear is pushing her to
a difficult choice. She won't risk her children future. Meanwhile,
Clamenta is grateful for the help sending his daughter back,
but he says he must stay behind.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
The fog means me, they've got a kid.
Speaker 8 (11:09):
He needs to pay the six thousand dollars debt, the
money he paid the Coyotes to bring them to the
US for that American dream.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So once people understand that you can't live here long term,
if you're here illegally, that will stem the tide of
people coming. I've seen report after report from every different
(11:39):
kind of news agency, talker, you name it on the border,
and attempted border crossings are down over ninety five percent.
We haven't even needed to build a wall. See the
first election twenty sixteen, Trump said build the wall, build
(12:01):
a wall, and everything became focused on whether the ball
the wall would hold, could the wall be built? And
the left said, you can't build a wall that big,
it's too too far. We can send a man to
the moon. You're right, allegedly, we can send a man
(12:23):
to the moon, but we can't build a wall when
our border with Mexico. Walls are evil, walls are no good,
Walls are cruel. Plenty of countries have walls. Uh, if
you build a wall, they'll go under it or go
(12:44):
over it. You'll never stop them. Well, why do I
want them in my country? Is that?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Are you speaking in favor of them?
Speaker 1 (12:51):
You're basically saying that these people will decide to invade
us and nothing we can do will stop us. And
so that was eight year years ago. Now he's focused
on get here if you want, well, everything we can
to keep you from it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
But once you hear we're kicking you out.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And some of you were sending to Guantanamo, and a
bunch of you we're sending to El Salvador. And let
me tell you something bou Keley does not play. You're
going into a hard core prison there. I watched the
I was getting my haircut one day and there was
a on the wall. I don't know it was documentary,
(13:35):
it was more just a bunch of footage of this
thing and it was like a landfill and that the
guards didn't even interact. And I think what they did
is they just bring rotten food, you know, they bring
food from the don't and just you know, pick through it.
And so what they were doing is making hooch out
(13:57):
of whatever they could get, especially fruits, and letting it ferment,
and laying around drunk on that, screwing each other, peeing
on each other.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I mean, it was just vile. And that was the prison.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Don't don't do the drhyme, you won't do the time.
I suppose not my job to make their prisons humane.
Maybe fear of that prison will cause people not to
engage in criminal activity. So back to the story of
this dentist, last octager.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
I don't have time to get to that story yet.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
I have to get to it further. The point I
want to make, which we'll get to, is he's not
a practicing dentist. He's a professor of dentistry. So how
was he getting all these canisters? When would you do that?
Would you huff one canister, not drive just under medical supervision?
Would you huff one just to see what it did?
(14:55):
I would assume it's kind of a low level, right
all he gets it? Yeah, if you can give it
to a kid. I would really, I'm interested and I'm fast.
I'm fascinated by addiction. Oh they give it to him
at school. Oh just when he's just he's cutting up
too much now, Ollie. Instead of time out, they give
(15:18):
him a huff. You know, do you know what a
whipp it is? I didn't know what a whipp it was.
We had a band and the lead singer went out
back and they had bought whipped cream, and you know,
there's a there's a way to get a whippet out.
They caught a whippet and it's a momentary high like
sniff and paint. And Lauren Cole, our manager at the time,
told me that they're never invited back because they were
(15:40):
doing whippets, and I thought, oh my god, that's bestiality.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I honestly had no idea Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
Then he was compact desk bro It simply works better.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
See you want money to me?
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I loved roy D Mercer used to have a website
and there were you would go to the website and
it was a phone and on each of the digits
that you would call would be a different line, a
different you know how big a.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Bo are you? How'd you like an ass whoop?
Speaker 1 (16:24):
In different different lines from the famous roy D Mercer character.
And so I started making calls within the radio industry
and it was Brent and Phil, there were a radio
duo out of Tulsa, Oklahoma. And I finally got to
(16:45):
people who knew them and said no, Phil died and
Brent didn't want to continue without him. The important thing
if the show is to go on, then the show
must go on, is that Brent was the voice of it,
so you could technically still do it. So I said,
do you have a phone number I can reach him.
(17:06):
I finally got a phone number, which when it rained
it just beat and then it was a voicemail.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
And so for a couple of weeks, every couple of.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Days I would leave a message this is about ten
years ago, and couldn't get anything. So I was finally
able through my PI. It's a track down an address,
no email, but an address. So like it was nineteen
fifty one, I wrote a letter, you know, like I
(17:36):
don't even remember more. You put a stamp on it
and then you wait on the postman to come and
you go, now you'll get this to him, right, and
he to take it, and they go down there and
stamp it and do all this stuff, and then eventually
somebody hands it to him. On his end, I did
all I never wrote back. So what I was going
to do is hire him to do bits for us.
I thought it'd be fun, but it never happened. Well,
(18:01):
I did admire the fact that they were such a
close duo that when Phil died, Brent hung it up.
He did do a little charity work. I knew that,
but he wanted no part of You know, who knows
what happened in his head, you know when his partner died. No,
when you die, I won't stop. I'll just keep blazing.
I'll put out you die on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I'll go, Look,
(18:24):
we need a new person to sit on the other
side of the glass, accepting application till noon, hired by four,
and we'll start the next morning. I'll have Jim and
Chad train them for a week and we should be
good to go. Ah Anyway, So on Saturday, Brent Douglas
died and Brent was the voice of roy D Mercer.
(18:45):
He credited Phil with writing the bits and dreaming up
the bits. They were on The character was first introduced
on KMOD, where they were on air radio hosts for
nearly thirty years. They would eventually put their calls onto
a CD, which they intended to sell locally because they
(19:07):
were very popular in Tulsa, Oklahoma in nineteen ninety four.
But a country music executive and producer who was born
in Oklahoma named Scott Hendricks had a lot of stroke
in the business and he was at Capitol Records, and
they also had the ability to push out product and
to market it. And then he went to Virgin National Records,
(19:30):
but he kept that account and between ninety six and
twenty thirteen, a seventeen year period, they pushed out twenty
CDs and in the first four years alone they sold
six million copies. That's a pretty good deal, and that
(19:52):
how Big a Boy Are You, which was our bump
song to begin this segment, included Charlie Daniels on vocals.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
It's a pretty cool deal.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Billy Bob Thornton was a fan of Roy D Mercer,
and that is why Brent Douglas appeared in the two
thousand and one film Daddy and Them, where he appeared
kind of as a on set as a guard but
that was you know, Billy Bob Thornton wanting to do
something cool. Phil Stone died in twenty twelve and that
(20:26):
was the end of the character. Brent Douglas said when
Phil passed, that was the end of roy D Mercer.
I just couldn't do it without him, and I wasn't
going to do it without him. It wouldn't have been
the same. I can respect that, I can admire that.
So I thought as our roy D Mercer tribute to
(20:48):
Phil and Brent out of Tulsa, Oklahoma and the glory
days of radio and the connection we have with our
radio heroes.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
My favorite of the roy D Mercer body of work.
Speaker 4 (21:03):

Speaker 4 (24:24):
Ti okkrail dude, not first sake me? Oh my, how
my secretaries come back here and said, who you yelling at?
What's going on? Time?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
It's paracy time. The berry shoes sail along.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
The cry.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
What's go back to the dennist huffing nitrous oxide? The
one hundred and seven canisters. I had several people in
the dentistry industry send me pictures of them. Did you
ever have one of those pistols? I don't know what
they're called, but they've got compressed gas in them. They
(25:20):
got a tube about that long and has a little
tip on the end of it, kind of like what
you would imagine a tampon looked like, but metal. Well
you asked for a reference, you said, never mind. See
they don't hear what you say on your side anyway,
it looks like that. It looks like the little canister
you would put a Seal two, looks like a Seal
(25:42):
two cartridge you'd put a in a pistol. I remember
when I was a teenager and you couldn't you Well,
there were limitations on what your dad would let you
take out and shoot. And I saved up and got
me a CO two cartridge pell pistol. And let me
tell you something, our woods were never the same. There
(26:04):
wasn't anything safe. I mean, you're shooting everything because you
know the old daisy bb gun and you can't really
there's no accuracy. That thing is tracking off and it
hits You just pissed something off if you hit it
with it. But the CO two, oh yeah, that was
you were looking for. Get me one right now, that's
(26:24):
a whole different deal. It says that our dentist, who
was driving along and huffing had been licensed since twenty twelve,
faces multiple misdemeanor charges, including two counts of possession of
volatile chemical, fleeing and popo, interfering with a public servant,
and possession of inhalent paraphernalia. That feels kind of silly,
(26:46):
doesn't it. Hey, you can't have this right here. This
is a regulated gas. You can't have it because you
might huff it. But also if we catch you and
you don't have it, but you got everything you need
to do it, we're gonna make that a crime. That
feels kind of that's a little bit of a stretch,
(27:06):
A little bit of a stretch, like you know these
head shops that get on every corner. You can go
wait a second, so you can go in there and
get a bong and pretty much everything you need except
for the one thing that makes it that you know,
that lights the fire. Hmm, I wonder how come people
(27:28):
would want that? Hey, could I have everything necessary to
smoke dope? Accept the dope because I got that already.
Just everything else. Y'all have everything else. You got rolling paper,
you got bolls. Oh you know you have everything else?
Oh okay, y'all are nice guys. Why would somebody be?
(27:48):
You think about that for a moment. But that got
me thinking that dentistry story. We had one a while back.
I don't know if you if you have it, Ramon,
there was Jim sent it along. The woman that went
to water, the woman that the what was the story
her daughter?
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I can't find a darn story. Well, I know there
was a bunch of fake Dennis.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
But remember we had the story of the girl and
she's under the laughing gas and her mom tells her
you're not the water Burgers. So you hear, we just
play it swoll?
Speaker 10 (28:25):
Yes, Hey, what's your favorite place to eat?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Water?
Speaker 10 (28:31):
They closed water Burgers? Oh can we get you something
to eat from somewhere else? What about dairy queen only
(28:53):
water Burgers? It's okay, don't cry. You went have a
yeady have water Burgers and you want me to put
a shake in it instead? Yeah, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Okay, you know what they just told me they opened
is open, so we get to go today?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (29:29):
Seriously, Oh, I know.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
What's a long?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Tell me something that you love about where you live.
Water Burger?
Speaker 11 (29:43):
Hello, okay, great, tell me about it right now?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah, all right, just no, just tell me about it.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
You're gonna love water Burger. It's the best. What makes
it the best? Wherever you are there's a water Burger? Yeah,
it's all.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (30:03):
And then when you get there, what do you like
about it?
Speaker 2 (30:05):
What do you get? Whatever you want?
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Whatever you want then?
Speaker 11 (30:09):
Right, But there are a lot of places like that.
So let's say there's a McDonald's, a Burger King, a Sonic,
and a Waterburger all lined up?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Which one you go to?
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Water? Right? Right? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Right?
Speaker 11 (30:24):
But they're all right there in this scenario, they're all
right there. So what do you get out of water Burger?
Of what makes it better to you? What are you getting?
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Ask him why you love water Burgers?
Speaker 12 (30:41):
Like asking why you love Christmas or summer night or
why you love your dog. I mean, you could point
to the reasons, but the reasons aren't really the point.
You just love it, and that's how love works.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Text rights are About twenty years ago. I had a
bad toothache and I went to a dentist who ended
up losing his license for another reason, to get it pulled.
I told him I'd like to have some gas, as
I'm not a big fan of dental procedures. They cause
a great deal of stress. He kind of nodded and said,
(31:16):
I got you. He put the mask over my nose
and cranked that puppy up to eleven sixty seconds in,
and boy was that stuff potent. No, lie, every sound
from the background music to his and his assistant's voices
were echoing, kind of like twisting a reverb knob higher
and condensing the sound waves. Not only that, my body
(31:37):
felt like I was doing backflips in the chair. Seriously,
that was wild. But by golly, never had any issues
after that. I guess he's saying it was a positive
experience because I wasn't sure. Joe writes Tzara, I want
to tell you I broke off a wisdom tooth for
two months, and when I finally went in. He stuck
(31:59):
a needle in my arm. Unicorn came by on the
rainbow and I got on, and we all left together,
got three more wisdom teeth. I can't wait for them
to mess up. I've never been that high. And Steve writes, Hey, Michael,
I know you probably don't have time, but I'm wondering
if you know of a good patriotic conservative pastor, hopefully
in the Spring area. But I don't mind traveling if
(32:19):
I need to. I don't know if somebody else there
might no send me an emails
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
So Michael Arry Show is on the air. How many
(00:44):
cavities do you think you've.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Had in your life?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
How many cavities you think you've had an your life?
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Zero?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Have you ever had any.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Medical procedures that required you to use sedation? Dental procedures
it required you to use sedation?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Ever? Have you been to the dentist?
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Hum?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Because doctor Witz it this.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Is funny because so you drive to the Woodlands to
see Guy Lewis.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Good on you.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I like that drive if you're making that drive. If
I've got something to do in the Woodlands and I
leave in between shows, I go up and I knock
it out and I get back on the road fast.
I enjoy that ride. Of course, I like long drives
anyway in the middle of the day. But the other
(01:42):
option is I go in the evening once it clears
down a little, and that's enjoyable. I do not enjoy
that five o'clock traffic going forty five north at all.
The reason I ask is I saw this story, and
you have to feel sorry for this because he's clearly
got a problem. But I'm just curious about it. The
(02:04):
headline is Houston dentist caught huffing and driving with one
hundred and seven canisters of laughing gas in car. Popos say, now,
I don't know how big a canister is, right, but
let's just assume, you know the airplane sized liquor bottles.
Let's assume you really like Jim Beam or Bare Fight
(02:27):
whiskey for that matter, and you go. You know, it's
a long flight. I'd like to bring me some drinks
with me. Even if that was the size of the
bottle and you had one hundred and seven of them,
you're prepared to just get tore up.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I don't know how much damage a canister of laughing
gas can do, but one hundred and seven feels excessive.
It feels very, very excessive. So here goes the story.
A Houston dentist and university professor, Christopher Peddler has been
(03:06):
arrested once again. That's a bad way to start the story.
You're going, oh, man, y'all are telling it? Can we
can this one just stand on its own? Can we
not tell I've been arrested twice before. A Houston dentist
and university professor, Christopher Peddler has been arrested once again.
(03:27):
Because if you've ever had an addict in your family,
you know that when that call comes in and they
go oh uncle, so and so you go oh not
again but partly, And I must say, there's a certain
I don't want to say comfort, there's a certain numbness
(03:48):
to it. So there's no shock. You're aware there's a problem.
You just know that this is the next phase it.
A Houston dnist and university professor, Christopher Peddler, has been
arrested once again, this time with more than one hundred
canisters of nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas. While
(04:08):
the chemical is frequently used in dentistry, authorities alleged Pedler
was huffing the gas while driving. According to court records,
Pedler has now been charged three times since October.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Dude, you are eat up on it.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You maybe need to. Couldn't he just stay home? I mean,
if he's sitting at home, it's going to take a
lot longer to get to it. But hold on this,
this gets more interesting for possession of nitrous oxide, a
regulated gas. In two of those instances, he reportedly had
over one hundred canisters in his possession. This dude, is
(04:50):
not playing around. He's not just gonna you know, he's
not trying to get a buzz I gotta think you
got Why do you have that many in your possession?
Can't you store them somewhere? According to court records, Peddler
has now been charged three times since October for possession
of nitrous oxide A regular. Oh I did that lot.
(05:10):
The thirty nine year old spent Sunday night in custody
after being stopped in the Heights Harris County Precinct. One
constable stated that Peddler was clocked speeding on West nineteenth
and initially refused to pull over. See that that's the deal, right,
(05:31):
If you're gonna be huffed and you're gonna be Jack Doe,
don't drive too fast and don't drive too slow.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
They never catch you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
It's never that they go. It's not like your officer
is driving along and he's like KKD four nine.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
E HPD Houston.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
I got a car driving under the influence of nitroosoxide.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I'm gonna turn this around. I'm on Heights westbound to nineteenth.
Speaker 7 (06:03):
Come on, right, that's just not happening. It's that you're
speeding or you got a tail light that I'm not
saying drive around helping nitrous gas, but I am saying
check your break lights, don't speed block speeding on West
(06:27):
nineteenth refused to pull over. When he stopped half a
mile later, the deputy discovered one hundred and seven canisters
of nitrous socks out in the backseat of his vehicle.
One canister was reportedly ice cold and attached to a mask,
suggesting recent use.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
So how does that work? Does he pull you over?
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Sir?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Do you mind if I check your car? What do
we have here? An entire warehouse of laughing gas? How
does that work?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Is?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Ah, sir, I'm gonna I'm gonna need to put you
in customer marm. Excuse get you stand right over there, Okay,
I'm gonna need to do an inventory on these laughing
gas canisters?
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Got it?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
KKD four nine e HPD Houston.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
I'm gonna be a will I got an inventory all
these canisters one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
ten canisters of laughing gas on the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I mean one hundred and seven takes a while to count.
And what do you do? Do you bag them?
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Tag them?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Do you do you stack them up? Where do you
put them. While you're counting them, do you go from
the backseat to the front seat.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I mean, think about this, officer, boy, I'm gonna need
some backup over here.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I have somewhere between ninety and one hundred and thirty
laughing gas canisters.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
I need to count up.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I mean, we'll take your word for it. That had
to take a wow. And you know what, I bet
the buzz wears off. You know when that buzz wears off,
you're like, hey, I'll tell you right now, because I
counted when I stole them, it's one hundred and seven.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
You think you could spare one for me? Just could
you just give me a real quick hit.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
While I'm over here because I'm not finding this whole
process very funny.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
The Michael Berry Show, I can't help you. Then you
found out to you.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
I'll come back to the Huffing story, but I want
to make sure I get this in. The Honduran consulate
in Houston says they've been overwhelmed not with people trying
to get into the country, with illegal Hondurans trying to
get out. They say that they're trying to self deport.
(09:03):
They say that the demand is so high they're bringing
in more staff to handle the growing number of people
seeking help to return to Honduras. This is one of
those self fulfilling prophecies. It becomes the case that when
(09:26):
you start the process, it creates its own momentum. You
can't deport us all, don't have to a lot of
you will leave on your own once you understand there's
no future here if you're illegal, A lot of you
will up and leave on your own. How's that you
(09:47):
can't deport us all? Sound now?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Khou overcome with emotion, Clement is at a loss for words.
He came to the US chasing the American dream. Now
he faces the heartbreak of saying goodbye to his fourteen
year old daughter.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I'm sure of what's next.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
If here's deportation and leaving his daughter alone in the US.
At the Huntering Consulate, he's asking for help to send
her back to family, hoping she'll be safe. She says
she's even afraid to go to school. Let's see, she
feared her dad would be taking away, leaving her alone.
(10:30):
And she's not the only one feeling this anxiety and Houston,
during Consul General, says more families are choosing to return
home voluntarily, including Ismaida and her two children. Ismaya fears
of being separated from her children. She arrived in the
US three years ago seeking asylum, and next month she
(10:52):
faces her first court hearing fear is pushing her to
a difficult choice. She won't risk her children future. Meanwhile,
Clamenta is grateful for the help sending his daughter back,
but he says he must stay behind.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
The fog means me, they've got a kid.
Speaker 8 (11:09):
He needs to pay the six thousand dollars debt, the
money he paid the Coyotes to bring them to the
US for that American dream.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So once people understand that you can't live here long term,
if you're here illegally, that will stem the tide of
people coming. I've seen report after report from every different
(11:39):
kind of news agency, talker, you name it on the border,
and attempted border crossings are down over ninety five percent.
We haven't even needed to build a wall. See the
first election twenty sixteen, Trump said build the wall, build
(12:01):
a wall, and everything became focused on whether the ball
the wall would hold, could the wall be built? And
the left said, you can't build a wall that big,
it's too too far. We can send a man to
the moon. You're right, allegedly, we can send a man
(12:23):
to the moon, but we can't build a wall when
our border with Mexico. Walls are evil, walls are no good,
Walls are cruel. Plenty of countries have walls. Uh, if
you build a wall, they'll go under it or go
(12:44):
over it. You'll never stop them. Well, why do I
want them in my country? Is that?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Are you speaking in favor of them?
Speaker 1 (12:51):
You're basically saying that these people will decide to invade
us and nothing we can do will stop us. And
so that was eight year years ago. Now he's focused
on get here if you want, well, everything we can
to keep you from it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
But once you hear we're kicking you out.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And some of you were sending to Guantanamo, and a
bunch of you we're sending to El Salvador. And let
me tell you something bou Keley does not play. You're
going into a hard core prison there. I watched the
I was getting my haircut one day and there was
a on the wall. I don't know it was documentary,
(13:35):
it was more just a bunch of footage of this
thing and it was like a landfill and that the
guards didn't even interact. And I think what they did
is they just bring rotten food, you know, they bring
food from the don't and just you know, pick through it.
And so what they were doing is making hooch out
(13:57):
of whatever they could get, especially fruits, and letting it ferment,
and laying around drunk on that, screwing each other, peeing
on each other.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I mean, it was just vile. And that was the prison.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Don't don't do the drhyme, you won't do the time.
I suppose not my job to make their prisons humane.
Maybe fear of that prison will cause people not to
engage in criminal activity. So back to the story of
this dentist, last octager.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
I don't have time to get to that story yet.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
I have to get to it further. The point I
want to make, which we'll get to, is he's not
a practicing dentist. He's a professor of dentistry. So how
was he getting all these canisters? When would you do that?
Would you huff one canister, not drive just under medical supervision?
Would you huff one just to see what it did?
(14:55):
I would assume it's kind of a low level, right
all he gets it? Yeah, if you can give it
to a kid. I would really, I'm interested and I'm fast.
I'm fascinated by addiction. Oh they give it to him
at school. Oh just when he's just he's cutting up
too much now, Ollie. Instead of time out, they give
(15:18):
him a huff. You know, do you know what a
whipp it is? I didn't know what a whipp it was.
We had a band and the lead singer went out
back and they had bought whipped cream, and you know,
there's a there's a way to get a whippet out.
They caught a whippet and it's a momentary high like
sniff and paint. And Lauren Cole, our manager at the time,
told me that they're never invited back because they were
(15:40):
doing whippets, and I thought, oh my god, that's bestiality.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I honestly had no idea Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
Then he was compact desk bro It simply works better.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
See you want money to me?
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I loved roy D Mercer used to have a website
and there were you would go to the website and
it was a phone and on each of the digits
that you would call would be a different line, a
different you know how big a.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Bo are you? How'd you like an ass whoop?
Speaker 1 (16:24):
In different different lines from the famous roy D Mercer character.
And so I started making calls within the radio industry
and it was Brent and Phil, there were a radio
duo out of Tulsa, Oklahoma. And I finally got to
(16:45):
people who knew them and said no, Phil died and
Brent didn't want to continue without him. The important thing
if the show is to go on, then the show
must go on, is that Brent was the voice of it,
so you could technically still do it. So I said,
do you have a phone number I can reach him.
(17:06):
I finally got a phone number, which when it rained
it just beat and then it was a voicemail.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
And so for a couple of weeks, every couple of.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Days I would leave a message this is about ten
years ago, and couldn't get anything. So I was finally
able through my PI. It's a track down an address,
no email, but an address. So like it was nineteen
fifty one, I wrote a letter, you know, like I
(17:36):
don't even remember more. You put a stamp on it
and then you wait on the postman to come and
you go, now you'll get this to him, right, and
he to take it, and they go down there and
stamp it and do all this stuff, and then eventually
somebody hands it to him. On his end, I did
all I never wrote back. So what I was going
to do is hire him to do bits for us.
I thought it'd be fun, but it never happened. Well,
(18:01):
I did admire the fact that they were such a
close duo that when Phil died, Brent hung it up.
He did do a little charity work. I knew that,
but he wanted no part of You know, who knows
what happened in his head, you know when his partner died. No,
when you die, I won't stop. I'll just keep blazing.
I'll put out you die on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I'll go, Look,
(18:24):
we need a new person to sit on the other
side of the glass, accepting application till noon, hired by four,
and we'll start the next morning. I'll have Jim and
Chad train them for a week and we should be
good to go. Ah Anyway, So on Saturday, Brent Douglas
died and Brent was the voice of roy D Mercer.
(18:45):
He credited Phil with writing the bits and dreaming up
the bits. They were on The character was first introduced
on KMOD, where they were on air radio hosts for
nearly thirty years. They would eventually put their calls onto
a CD, which they intended to sell locally because they
(19:07):
were very popular in Tulsa, Oklahoma in nineteen ninety four.
But a country music executive and producer who was born
in Oklahoma named Scott Hendricks had a lot of stroke
in the business and he was at Capitol Records, and
they also had the ability to push out product and
to market it. And then he went to Virgin National Records,
(19:30):
but he kept that account and between ninety six and
twenty thirteen, a seventeen year period, they pushed out twenty
CDs and in the first four years alone they sold
six million copies. That's a pretty good deal, and that
(19:52):
how Big a Boy Are You, which was our bump
song to begin this segment, included Charlie Daniels on vocals.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
It's a pretty cool deal.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Billy Bob Thornton was a fan of Roy D Mercer,
and that is why Brent Douglas appeared in the two
thousand and one film Daddy and Them, where he appeared
kind of as a on set as a guard but
that was you know, Billy Bob Thornton wanting to do
something cool. Phil Stone died in twenty twelve and that
(20:26):
was the end of the character. Brent Douglas said when
Phil passed, that was the end of roy D Mercer.
I just couldn't do it without him, and I wasn't
going to do it without him. It wouldn't have been
the same. I can respect that, I can admire that.
So I thought as our roy D Mercer tribute to
(20:48):
Phil and Brent out of Tulsa, Oklahoma and the glory
days of radio and the connection we have with our
radio heroes.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
My favorite of the roy D Mercer body of work.
Speaker 4 (21:03):

gonna be tore up, and I ain't gonna be able
to have it. I was gonna get to somebody dressed
up like a state trooper and stripped for you.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Better get your stuff together.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
The name is John Kaufman. He's coming down here to
do that. He's gonna strip down to a m O.
Belton of not club.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Who in the hell is this?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Your brother wanted to pull a joke on you? I
think you did.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
He's fixing to pull one, Is that right? Yeah? Well
that first time my blood pressure has been up? Manal
wimp Are you okay? Jim?
Speaker 9 (24:19):
I was fictioning to go get my damn pistol and
we're gonna we're gonna play gun fight.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Ti okkrail dude, not first sake me? Oh my, how
my secretaries come back here and said, who you yelling at?
What's going on? Time?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
It's paracy time. The berry shoes sail along.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
The cry.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
What's go back to the dennist huffing nitrous oxide? The
one hundred and seven canisters. I had several people in
the dentistry industry send me pictures of them. Did you
ever have one of those pistols? I don't know what
they're called, but they've got compressed gas in them. They
(25:20):
got a tube about that long and has a little
tip on the end of it, kind of like what
you would imagine a tampon looked like, but metal. Well
you asked for a reference, you said, never mind. See
they don't hear what you say on your side anyway,
it looks like that. It looks like the little canister
you would put a Seal two, looks like a Seal
(25:42):
two cartridge you'd put a in a pistol. I remember
when I was a teenager and you couldn't you Well,
there were limitations on what your dad would let you
take out and shoot. And I saved up and got
me a CO two cartridge pell pistol. And let me
tell you something, our woods were never the same. There
(26:04):
wasn't anything safe. I mean, you're shooting everything because you
know the old daisy bb gun and you can't really
there's no accuracy. That thing is tracking off and it
hits You just pissed something off if you hit it
with it. But the CO two, oh yeah, that was
you were looking for. Get me one right now, that's
(26:24):
a whole different deal. It says that our dentist, who
was driving along and huffing had been licensed since twenty twelve,
faces multiple misdemeanor charges, including two counts of possession of
volatile chemical, fleeing and popo, interfering with a public servant,
and possession of inhalent paraphernalia. That feels kind of silly,
(26:46):
doesn't it. Hey, you can't have this right here. This
is a regulated gas. You can't have it because you
might huff it. But also if we catch you and
you don't have it, but you got everything you need
to do it, we're gonna make that a crime. That
feels kind of that's a little bit of a stretch,
(27:06):
A little bit of a stretch, like you know these
head shops that get on every corner. You can go
wait a second, so you can go in there and
get a bong and pretty much everything you need except
for the one thing that makes it that you know,
that lights the fire. Hmm, I wonder how come people
(27:28):
would want that? Hey, could I have everything necessary to
smoke dope? Accept the dope because I got that already.
Just everything else. Y'all have everything else. You got rolling paper,
you got bolls. Oh you know you have everything else?
Oh okay, y'all are nice guys. Why would somebody be?
(27:48):
You think about that for a moment. But that got
me thinking that dentistry story. We had one a while back.
I don't know if you if you have it, Ramon,
there was Jim sent it along. The woman that went
to water, the woman that the what was the story
her daughter?
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I can't find a darn story. Well, I know there
was a bunch of fake Dennis.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
But remember we had the story of the girl and
she's under the laughing gas and her mom tells her
you're not the water Burgers. So you hear, we just
play it swoll?
Speaker 10 (28:25):
Yes, Hey, what's your favorite place to eat?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Water?
Speaker 10 (28:31):
They closed water Burgers? Oh can we get you something
to eat from somewhere else? What about dairy queen only
(28:53):
water Burgers? It's okay, don't cry. You went have a
yeady have water Burgers and you want me to put
a shake in it instead? Yeah, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Okay, you know what they just told me they opened
is open, so we get to go today?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (29:29):
Seriously, Oh, I know.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
What's a long?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Tell me something that you love about where you live.
Water Burger?
Speaker 11 (29:43):
Hello, okay, great, tell me about it right now?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah, all right, just no, just tell me about it.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
You're gonna love water Burger. It's the best. What makes
it the best? Wherever you are there's a water Burger? Yeah,
it's all.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (30:03):
And then when you get there, what do you like
about it?
Speaker 2 (30:05):
What do you get? Whatever you want?
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Whatever you want then?
Speaker 11 (30:09):
Right, But there are a lot of places like that.
So let's say there's a McDonald's, a Burger King, a Sonic,
and a Waterburger all lined up?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Which one you go to?
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Water? Right? Right? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Right?
Speaker 11 (30:24):
But they're all right there in this scenario, they're all
right there. So what do you get out of water Burger?
Of what makes it better to you? What are you getting?
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Ask him why you love water Burgers?
Speaker 12 (30:41):
Like asking why you love Christmas or summer night or
why you love your dog. I mean, you could point
to the reasons, but the reasons aren't really the point.
You just love it, and that's how love works.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Text rights are About twenty years ago. I had a
bad toothache and I went to a dentist who ended
up losing his license for another reason, to get it pulled.
I told him I'd like to have some gas, as
I'm not a big fan of dental procedures. They cause
a great deal of stress. He kind of nodded and said,
(31:16):
I got you. He put the mask over my nose
and cranked that puppy up to eleven sixty seconds in,
and boy was that stuff potent. No, lie, every sound
from the background music to his and his assistant's voices
were echoing, kind of like twisting a reverb knob higher
and condensing the sound waves. Not only that, my body
(31:37):
felt like I was doing backflips in the chair. Seriously,
that was wild. But by golly, never had any issues
after that. I guess he's saying it was a positive
experience because I wasn't sure. Joe writes Tzara, I want
to tell you I broke off a wisdom tooth for
two months, and when I finally went in. He stuck
(31:59):
a needle in my arm. Unicorn came by on the
rainbow and I got on, and we all left together,
got three more wisdom teeth. I can't wait for them
to mess up. I've never been that high. And Steve writes, Hey, Michael,
I know you probably don't have time, but I'm wondering
if you know of a good patriotic conservative pastor, hopefully
in the Spring area. But I don't mind traveling if
(32:19):
I need to. I don't know if somebody else there
might no send me an emails
