Speaker 1 (01:34):
M Odell. You're on the Michael Berry Show Open Line Friday.
(01:56):
Welcome to the program, sir.
Speaker 7 (01:57):
Honored to have you, my Michael Berry. Thank you. Hey.
I just shocked how blind the American people are. They
want more of the same that they've had for four years.
I bought fuel for a dollar eighty nine to one
thirty nine under Trump. As soon as the bidens get
in there, I pay four dollars and twenty five cents.
(02:20):
A friend of mine is illegal. He's got diabetes. He
goes so security, I'll be dead, gump. They don't give
it to him. If you want five million, ten million
people will be on so security. You'll see how fast
he'll go illegal. Any man who would give his life
for his country, I would follow him. You had a
(02:42):
white man on the last week who said he wouldn't
invite Trump to eat at his table. I would lick
his plate clean when he got done eating. And I
think you Valdi. All those cops standing around, most of
them were ex military. They knew they had to assort.
So that's my complaint. In their file, it should say
(03:04):
it came and did I think appreciate you?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh deal, that's that's what you said a lot there,
and I I sure appreciate it. That licking the plate
clean part. It kind of kind of I wasn't it
kind of kind of cringed a little bit on that.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
I hope it turned your stomach.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well, it made me nervous, to be honest with you,
I didn't I didn't see it coming.
Speaker 8 (03:33):
It come out of nowhere saying how much I was
just saying, how you do you remember that man who
said he wouldn't having me at this table. Yes, that
guy that's probably a Democrat.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Well, of course he's a democrat. I just that the
point at which you you you went on the licking
his plate clean, it felt it felt kind of put
me in a in a different way. I wasn't sure
I would lick his plate. Claim that made me nervous.
Ramone looked up at me, and I looked up at him,
and we didn't really know what was happening right then,
(04:09):
you know. Dan writes what surprised me the most and
disappoints me the most, is it no matter how terrible
Biden and Harris have performed and how incompetent they are,
they're still around forty nine percent of the population going
to vote for them, which demonstrates that about forty nine
percent of the people are either uninformed, idiots, or indoctrinated.
(04:31):
It's very disappointing. It should have been eighty to twenty.
Jenna writes, easy answer for me. I've been shocked that
jd vanceys everything I hoped Dan Crenshaw would be. You know,
backstage at his event, Tucker Carlson said something to me
and Jesse Kelly that I've thought about several times since then.
(04:55):
This was, you know, six weeks ago or so. Somebody
in the group who had come backstage that was a
friend of a friend of his, asked him about how
vicious people can be toward Tucker and does it make
him mad? Does he ever? Does he ever hate people?
(05:18):
Because clearly people hate him. And I'm paraphrasing here, so
I may not get this exactly right, but the sentiment
is correct. He said. I do not bother to hate people,
because a lot of it is for show. A lot
of these people, you know, they're just doing something because
(05:39):
that's the lane they're in, or whatever else, he said.
But there is someone I very strongly dislike and it
is as close as I can get to hate, and
it is because he's dishonest and he's a cheat and
he's a fraud. And everyone thought he was gonna say
a Democrat and he said Dan Crenshaw, and Jesse shot
(06:04):
a look at me, and I shot a look at him,
because we both think that Crenshaw's a fraud, and we're
both embarrassed that we helped him because he was saying
the right things, and you got a candidate who's saying
the right things and looks on paper to be the
kind of guy that could end up being, you know,
someone you're very proud of helping to launch and they
(06:27):
turn on you. And Dan Crenshaw came to me from
people I trusted very much, all of whom, by the way,
are embarrassed of him now, People that knew him going
back to the seals and before, people that knew him
and could attest to everything. You know, Sometimes sometimes people change.
(06:49):
Sometimes people get a little birdie in their ear and
it makes them think that there that cats me out,
and some people will sell their soul.
Speaker 9 (06:58):
It just is.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
But it was interesting to hear that Tucker reserved his
greatest antipathy not for a Democrat, but for Dan Crenshaw. Hey, raymon,
tell me something. I'm just doing a sound check. Here
I turned. I was throwing some trash into the trash
can of the paper and so I turned and I
got over here. When I did it, can you still
(07:19):
hear me? Okay? If I do that? Or does it
go down a little bit?
Speaker 10 (07:24):
Pelicia?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
So I tell you a story about what happened yesterday.
You know, I love the song I Thought He Walked
on Water by Randy Travis. It's one of the prettiest
songs ever is by Little Boys Love for his great grandfather,
and it's just it's it's what country music can be.
(07:48):
It's not trite, it's not I love you, I always
love you, I've loved you every way. They sing songs
about love. It great another longs love song, a little
boys love for his great grandfather kind of thing that's
not not written about, and how his grandfather loved him
(08:08):
and how he misses him, and you know, you don't
realize that your great grandfather's not always going to be there.
And I was talking about that on the air and
how much that song meant to me and what a
beautiful song it was, and that Randy Travis sang it.
But the songwriter's Alan Shamblin, and Alan's a friend. He's
played at our house before. And last night I had
(08:30):
the boys over Ramone and Jim Chack couldn't make it.
He had kids sports and Alan sent me a text
and he said, hey, I heard what you said, because
he lives in Nashville world in that Nashville, he said,
would you like to hear the demo? The demo is
him singing that for the label that they pitched to
Randy Travis, and he said, I'm gonna play that before
(08:51):
we go off the air of this move texas original
true national treasure. Don't messing around with any old hamblin name.
This is the Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I would lick his plate claim. I would lick his
plate claim.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Mhm hm.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I would lick his plate claim. I would lick his
plate claim.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 7 (09:50):
I would lick his plate.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Claim from chievo, I'm doing it right.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
I would link his plate claim.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
You get it together, baby kievose you get it together
right on.
Speaker 9 (10:24):
Again?
Speaker 8 (10:26):
I keep.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
I would link his plate clan whatever what.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
President Trump at the Al Smith dinner last night that
Kamala Harris was unwilling, too scared to show up for.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
It's a true pleasure to be with you this evening.
Amazing pleasure, and these days it's really a pleasure anywhere
in New York without a subpoena for my appearance.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
This one is a joke. You have to know the
background of, so forgive me for over explaining. I often find,
particularly on Twitter, that people who follow politics all day
long make a reference to something that you had to
also follow politics all day long to get the joke
(11:23):
or the reference, and I think that they alienate the
audience and speak only to themselves. It becomes an echo chamber.
And so the guy that's on a forklift all day,
he gets off and gets a fifteen minute break. He
goes down to the vending machine, grabs a coke and
(11:45):
some animal crackers, pulls his phone out and starts scrolling
to see what's news, and he sees references to things
he doesn't understand, and he doesn't have time to find
the context to all of that. It's unfortunate because I
think a lot of people are left behind by supposed
(12:06):
influencers because they don't understand their market. And that's a problem.
You know, people at bud Light didn't understand their market
when they allowed that woman. You know, Dylan mulvaney is
not the villain of that story. The villain is the
woman who was determined to shame all the Rednecks and
(12:28):
Mexicans that drink bud Light because they didn't share her values.
The shame came to bud Light that they allowed a
woman like this who hated her audience, to run that
division and have that much power. Her goal was to
(12:48):
keep her high paying job but get rid of those nasty,
dirty beneath her customers. So slapping them around a little
was great fun for her. She caused the Budwell the
Anheuser Busch division of Enbev, an international company, but she
(13:10):
cost that division billions of dollars. So Gretchen Whitmer is
the governor of Michigan, and she is an utterly hateable
human being. She's kind of a combination of Sheila Jackson
Lee rolled up with Colin Alred with a whole dose
(13:34):
of smug Beto o'rourk on the top. That's Gretchen Whitmer.
She made an ad last week where she fed a
wafer to a young woman in probably her early twenties
who's on her knees begging for the wafer like a dog,
(13:54):
and she puts the wafer in the young woman's mouth,
and it was it was considered sexual, an odd and inexplicable.
So President Trump's reference here to Michigan's Governor Gretchen Whitmer
(14:16):
was to that video that even Democrats left, even Democrats
scratching their heads.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
All poles are indicating I'm leading big with the Catholic vote,
as I should be, as I should be. But I
don't think Kamala has given up yet. She hasn't. Instead
of attending tonight, she's in Michigan receiving communion from Gretchen Whitmer.
(14:45):
That's not a pretty sight. But Catholics, please don't be
too insulted by Kamala's absence. If the Democrats, thank you
very much. I appreciate the Democrats really wanted to have
someone not be with us this evening. They would have
just sent Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
So President Trump pointing out that the Alsemith dinner writes
a charity check on behalf of the Catholic Church from
the top American Catholic leaders are always there, and that
that's not the charity of choice. To Kamala.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Catholics, you got to vote for me just to remember.
You better remember I'm here and she's not. I could
have done that too. But you do something that's incredible,
that Catholic Church are helping the poor, educating children, and
supporting the vulnerable.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
But if you really.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Wanted Vice President Harris to accept your invitation, I guess
you should have told her the funds we're going to
bail out the looters and writers in Minneapolis and she
would have been here. Guaranteed she would have been here.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
David Maulsby at Camp Hope sends me a report every
morning on what was done the day before and or
what's going to be done today. And often if someone
makes a donation or volunteers, or someone has hit five
years of volunteering or whatever, he'll send me the phone
number in the person's name and I'll pick up the
phone and call them and say, on behalf of the
(16:24):
veterans and their families, thank you for what you've done.
I want you to know it was noticed, and it
was noticed because the executive director of Camp Hope thought
enough of what you've done to send that as the
daily report today, and I just I really appreciate it.
It's amazing how far that goes. But today you say,
(16:47):
we got a large donation from Tommy Hill and the
Tomball Macy's warehouse. So I guess Macy's has a warehouse
in Tomball. That included one hundred pillows, two hundred and
eighty rolls of toilet paper, sixty nine ayes OD shirts,
and ten pairs of shorts. They will also be donating
(17:09):
toys for the vets children for Christmas. Now what I'm
interested in here. I'm grateful that the Macy's and Tomball
the warehouse donated all these things while I hate I
am a big recycler, just so you know, but not
for the liberal thing is, if I get a gift,
(17:30):
I don't ever want gifts. I have everything in the
world I need. I don't want anyone to give me anything.
It's always going to lead to disappointment because then they
want to know how I liked it, and I don't
even remember getting it, and I gave it away. I'm
giving it away. I'm not keeping it. I don't need anything.
I have everything I ever wanted. I'm in need of nothing.
But if I do get a gift, I will then
spend a moment thinking who would most enjoy this, and
(17:53):
I'll give it to them. And if they ask, did
you regift this? Yes I did. But let me ask
you this. Let's say you've always wanted really nice three
fifty seven, but you can't afford it at three fifty seven. Boy,
if you had that three fifty seven, you'd man, you'd
you'd lick its plate every day, right, And somebody gives
(18:17):
me a three fifty But I don't need another gun.
I got plenty that would never happen, but and I
give it to you. Are you gonna enjoy it any less?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
We don't.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I would lick here swe Michael Berry, someone like you,
and if by was him, I'd be right by your side.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
Pelicia Troubles.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I think Odell's a caller of the day.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
What you is in my pocket.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'll get at least five of emails. How come you
made fun of that poor man? Good grief? The literal
people running around worrying about somebody getting their feelings hurt
all day long or tiresome. Tiresome? I tell you, I
love the way that Odell and see we're gonna lose
(19:20):
this Odell, if he has a thought is coming out.
My dad's like this. I love that old people don't
feel like they need They don't feel like they need
to dress up what they say or hold back on
what they say, because they grew up in a time
(19:41):
where if you wanted to say I can't believe what
Odell said was essentially that person wouldn't sit down at
the table with Donald Trump. I'd lick his plate clean.
I do anything for it. That's how much I respect him.
Well people don't talk that way anymore. They'd say, well,
(20:04):
I understand that, you know, Trump is not perfect, and
you know Trump has his his his downsides, and I
do understand that you know the person, you know how
because you first have to build up why why them?
Hating Trump is okay, but you know, I mean, you know,
people might judge me for this, and and maybe people
won't like me for this, and you know, maybe I'm wrong,
(20:24):
but but but I find myself. I don't think he's perfect.
I don't, but I find myself. And I mean, I understand,
you know, there's a lot of things I disagree with,
but I you know, I kind of halfway a little bit,
might just have touch two percent like him. Not Odell,
he did I look his plate clean. I mean that
(20:48):
that is unabashed. Odell has an opinion. He's going to
state it. By God. David Malsby's message I keep on
printed out and I was looking through a couple days ago,
he said. Ed and Dorothy Petru donated a generator and
a trailer that will come in handy for the maintenance department.
(21:12):
They also donated a vehicle not long ago. That's Michael
Petrew's parents. They lived down down in Alvin, sci Fair
Republican Women's Group dropped off toilet paper, batteries and some
food items. Man, this organization does so much good, and
(21:36):
it's little bitty things like that. Petrew's dropping off a generator,
things that people can't use anymore. And now sometimes I gotta
people email me and say, hey, I guts, I got.
I got six different socks. They don't match, and they
got holes in them. Could those veterans? You know, we
don't need that. It's hard to set a hard and
(21:58):
fast rule. But people do so much for Camp Hope,
and I get to see it every day. It just
does my heart good. Wanda, why hello, dear.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
Hello, sweetheart, I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
What did you call about?
Speaker 11 (22:21):
Ses?
Speaker 10 (22:23):
I need Petolph? And Victoria, Texas is even billboards of
Kamala Harris billboards. I just want to take my gun
out and shut all the sime every your avengeances the
exous and I hear they go all the way up
fifty nine to sugar Land. So there's a writing candidate
(22:50):
who's now for president?
Speaker 7 (22:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (22:54):
I cannot find.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Out, Okay, but wonder why are you worried about it?
Speaker 11 (23:02):
Uh?
Speaker 10 (23:03):
No? I just am upset because you know, I guess
sorrows and this net. You know, I just school Why
why why do.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
You do that?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Let me, let me try to give you some peace.
I wonder I'm gonna give you peace through purpose. I've
noticed that a lot of men that I've known over
the years that were mentors of mine and older friends
of mine, they couldn't wait till the day they retired
because their job took so much out of them. And
that day comes and they're just gonna play golf. They're
(23:39):
gonna sleep in and they're gonna play golf, do what
they want to do. And within three months, and certainly
within six, they're miserable because they have no purpose. Or
I've noticed it. Guys who uh they want to They
see you're out at dinner, and they see the girls
go by, and they want to have sex with all
(23:59):
of them. And they're having trouble at home and they
can't wait to be divorced so they can sleep with
whoever they want. And for about two or three weeks
they sleep with everybody's ex wife that's out there doing
exactly what they are. And within a month, Hey, Mike,
can you help me find something I'm lonely because it
wasn't what it was supposed to be. Well, I've noticed
this phenomenon one, and I'm not picking on you. This
(24:23):
is very common. Every day I get emails from people
and they say, myw they're cheating over here, and their
billboards over here, and they got ads running over there,
and they got this over here and a democratic ha,
I'm sanngry, ha, I don't know what I'm gonna do ha,
And they're just I mean, they're hysterical. And I say,
(24:47):
all right, hold on a minute. Pause. So what you're
telling me is you're way more upset than anybody else.
That's how we all need to know that you care
more about what's going on in this country than anybody else.
And the way we should I know that is you're
more angry than other people. You're so angry, your hair
is frizzed up and it's normally straight. Okay, have you
(25:08):
helped one person register to vote and vote? Well? No,
because our people are spending so because getting caught up
and being frenetic and hysterical and angry and furious, and
but you're not helping us. None of those emotions are
helping us. Win none of them. So let's channel that emotion.
(25:34):
Let's identify somebody in Wanda's world and Ramon's world, and
Sammy's world and Susie's world, and let's find one person
to help vote. How about that instead of spending all
this negative energy. Do you believe Americans are better off
than they were four years ago?
Speaker 12 (25:50):
Michael Barrier, So, I was raised as a middle class kid.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
When you came along. It's uncanny the things people who
remember I had mentioned Boaz in the Bible years ago.
This might have been five years ago to a friend
of mine who I don't get to see very often,
and probably, like a lot of you, work in family
(26:20):
and things get in the way. But there are certain
people that when you hear from them, you're just happy
to see them, happy to hear, happy to see their
name come across their screen, you screen as long as
they're not trying to say life insurance or you know,
some multi their latest multi level marketing thing, or borrow
money again or whatever it is. But there's just certain
(26:44):
people that they'll keep you up to date on their
family and you do the same with yours. And their
kids just graduated high school, and their kids just started
college and the kid just got a job, and you
know those sorts of things. And I have had mentioned
Boas in the Bible to this individual who did not
know who Boas was, and so I had told him
(27:07):
the story, and I guess it's stuck with him because
he sent me a little sermon on Boaz. And some
of you will remember in the Book of Ruth, Naomi
was a long suffering woman who had gotten married and
had two sons and they die, so I think she
(27:30):
goes back to Moab. And this was one of my
mother's favorite stories in the Bible. And so you know,
thy people are my people. The idea of marrying into
a family, the idea of loyally following someone, and my
mother would quote this a lot, so it was a
(27:51):
particular portion of the Bible that always spoke to me.
And I had mentioned bo As because of someone who
had married a very poor woman and kind of a
pretty woman in the movie, kind of a pretty woman
type type thing. And what had happened. I'll make it
(28:11):
brief so you understand. This was Naomi's I guess daughter
in law was Ruth. And Ruth worked in the field,
and she was a poor woman and this rich landowner
named bo As, he noticed this woman. I don't think
(28:34):
she was striking in her beauty. Something moved him about
this woman, and it wasn't described as this incredible attraction.
It was admiration. She was a hard worker, she was
down on her lup, and so he instructed his workers
to make sure you save back some barley for her,
(28:55):
some food for her, and in time he would marry her.
And that was just not done because we like to
think of the Indians as the only ones with a
caste system, but every society has a caste system. It's
just a fact. And so Boaz marries Ruth. Ruth would bear.
(29:21):
It's either Obadiah or Obed or.
Speaker 10 (29:27):
Jeded.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I think it's Obed, and Obed I think was the
grandfather of David. So you have Christ's lineage coming through
this particular family. So there's a lot of reasons that
Boaz comes up. But the reason I had mentioned Boas
and explained the story probably five years ago, was that
Boas was this wealthy man who took in this very
(29:50):
poor woman who worked in his fields, and married her
and loved her and honored her. And so this friend
of mine sent me the message about this pastor preaching
about you want to find a boas or a relative
of bo ass. Y'all all think you want that. And
then he said this bowl ass has some relatives, and if.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
You don't watch it, you won't get the one God
has for you. You'll get his relatives to the girls.
I found this on the internet. He has boas is
spelled boaz. Everybody say b o a z. And so
he's got some relatives called broke ass, po as, lying ass,
cheating ass.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Dumb ass, drunk ass. Don't go out with him, cheap ass.
Speaker 12 (30:35):
Turn to somebody, say I dated him, locked up ass,
good for nothing as, lazy ass, and especially his third cousin,
beaten your ass, wait on your bow ass, and make
sure he respects your ass.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Now there's your word.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
You wanted a word, You got a.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Word that was a real sermon and a real church.
Now it's kind of one of those, you know, kind
of like Ben Young did it at Second Baptist for
a long time, Ed Young would preach the morning service,
and then Ben Young would would preach the hungover twenty
somethings that would come in afterwards in sweatpants. A lot
(31:17):
of churches do that for a long time. Rudy Rastus.
Rudy Rasmus used to do that at at What was
the name of that church? I can't remember. Anyway, Unknown,
you're on the Michael Berry Show. Hell Unknown, you're.
Speaker 11 (31:35):
Up, Michael, Yes, can you tell me who your advertiser
is that does it raises the driveway or walkways? If
you're the thing boom, I believe you have an advertiser
(31:55):
that does that.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Well. I don't have advertisers. The station has advertisers. I
have sponsors. Atlas Foundation Repair is the company that takes
care of our listeners with regard to anything related to
uneven structures and the shifting soils that we have there.
(32:23):
If you will email me, it's always better, because it's
just better if folks email me with this question. I
will almost for almost every company that sponsors our ship.
I've got them on speed dial and I've got their email,
and I will forward your email, copy them and ask
them to personally take care of you. Now, I don't
(32:46):
some people don't understand why this is important. I grew
up in a small town. When you need a TV repair,
you call mister Nable TV Repair or your dad would
and you were coming down with the TV and he
was going to fix her. He come out to you.
Or if you needed, you know, to get your tires rotated.
Your somebody in your family would call down there and
