Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Three and a half years ago, Jeffrey Johnson was murdered
at his home in League City in June of.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Twenty twenty one. The UH.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
The man who was charged and arrested, Devon Jordan, was
granted a bond, which he posted, and he was out
on tiple bonds having murdered somebody until the trials started
(01:05):
October twenty eighth, just a few weeks ago. He should
have never been on the street in the first place.
This is where this whole thing goes wrong. During the
crime spree of Devon Jordan two weeks before he killed
Jeffrey Johnson, he killed Josh Sandoval. In both cases he followed.
(01:34):
He followed the victims to their homes to rob them,
but the robberies were botched and he murdered them. He
should have never been on the street again. He should
have been thrown away. Well, we got a guilty verdict,
which doesn't bring Jeffrey Johnson back, but it's a step
(01:58):
in the right direction. Amy Castillo is Jeffrey Johnson's sister.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Amy. Welcome to the program.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
No, I'm sorry, I'm not his sister. I was I'm
Joshua Pannaval.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I'm sorry, you're josh Sandevos. I'm sorry. I did know that.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I'm looking at my nose. I was thinking of my
own brother and imagining the grief my mistake.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
You're Josh's sister.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yes, sir, you were in the courtroom when the verdict
came back, and I noticed that you said to Randy Wallace, who,
by the way, Randy Wallace has done a wonderful job
on this story. Randy Wallace at Fox twenty six as
part of their Breaking Bond series, that you were told
(02:41):
you couldn't react. I have a problem with that. But
how did you feel knowing that this monster had been convicted.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh, it was just a huge weight lifted off our shoulders.
I had been praying relentlessly for a very long time,
and then when the trial started, hearing both sides, I
was there for a little bit of the days and
going back on Tuesday yesterday and hearing the verdict, I
(03:11):
just I was. I was very excited to hear that
the jury, the jury was right. You know, they made
made the right decisions, and I was a little nervous,
but I know, I just I prayed a lot, and
they made the right decisions, and I was I was
(03:33):
just very excited, and yeah, I couldn't. I couldn't respond react.
I just mouthed like thank you or yes or something
to that effect, and I just started crying.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Were you by yourself?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
No, I wasn't by myself. I had my husband with me,
and I was there to support mister Johnson's family. Number One.
I know that this was their their case, this was
their father and their husband, and I didn't want to
step on anybody's toes, but I just wanted to show
them my support. And they knew who I was from
the commercials, and then I also, you know, introduced myself
(04:09):
and told him who I was, and they knew my
brother's name, and so they understood. While we were all
there together, it was mister Johnson Stanley as well.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Tell me about Josh Sandoval, Who was he? What kind
of person was he? Tell me what y'all did together?
Tell me about your bond.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Well, I was ten years older than my brother, so
I kind of took care of him, and I have
really good memories of taking care of him and baby
fitting him, and he was just the cutest little baby
in the whole world. And he grew up to be
such an amazing person. And he loved to play basketball,
(04:49):
he loved hanging out with his friends. I mean he
just did you know, typical young twenties stuff. Just everybody him.
He could never do anything ill towards anybody. He was
always laughing, cracking jokes, just a smile on his face,
(05:12):
just all the time. He just was an amazing person.
And it saddens me that I don't get to see
him smile or laugh anymore. And I don't know what
his future would have been because he was murdered at
twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Tell me what happened.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Well, he was targeted and followed home and when they
went in through their garage, his garage, and I'm not
sure how it all happened, but he was shot and
they ran off and the person that was there in
(05:59):
the town home with him called the ambulance. He was
shot in the heart. One of the last things he
said was tell my tell my girlfriend, I love her,
Tell my mama, I love her. And then he never
said seeing it.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And then when you have to process that, he goes
off and kills another person and does what he's done
to your family to another family, and you see Harris
County judge and a Galveston judge letting him out to
walk the streets pending his trial.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I can't imagine how that has to feel. I mean
that the sense of I don't know, is it betrayal,
is it frustration?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Is it confused? Can you help me understand that?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
It's definitely confusion. I understand and what you know, judges
have to do or I think they have to do,
But it does feel like a backstab to set a
(07:16):
bond at such a price that they could afford it.
You know, I'm under the impression that they have discretion
when it's capital murder, so why not say no bond?
He bonded out both times, so obviously this person could
have had the opportunity to walk around and be in
(07:40):
public with everybody else. I just feel that it was
a shame that they didn't take into consideration his past.
I guess activity to see maybe this person shouldn't be
out because we know what he's doing when he's not
in jail. So it did just feel like we were
(08:04):
not cared about I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
You've spoken out, you have, Uh, of course people will
criticize you for that, but you don't seem to care.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's more important.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And you have shared your story, which is incredibly compelling,
and I think that in so doing you have honored
your brother, Amy Castillo, and I think you've shown incredible
courage and I hope you have inspired other people. This
is our country. We have to fix it, and that
means we can't hide and wait on someone else to
(08:37):
do it. I know this has been very difficult for you,
but on behalf of a lot of people, I want
to say thank.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You, Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I appreciate that, Amy Castillo.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It's a mile very Michael.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
All.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
It's so smony. I clus down. It seems to let
my heart it'll breaking into that says no, but my
(09:41):
soul demands it. If a thing I do reminds me
of you.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
It is being reported, not yet confirmed, that President Trump
will name Director of nash Intelligence Toolsey Gabbard, former vice
chair of the Democrat National Convention, military veteran, former congressman
(10:13):
from Hawaii, And may I say, HATI complete and utter haughty.
Gonn you like that little skunk thing she's got going.
It worked for Bonnie Raate, Bonny Rate cute. I don't
remember her being cute. Huh for an older woman. I'm
(10:35):
sure that makes you real popular with the older ladies.
What did I just ask you.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
To get for me?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
What do we? What do we so?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I don't I don't have a result yet, as soon
as I do. On the Senate Majority Leader, I'm going
to tell you something. If the Swamp wins this race,
there are going to be the failures to launch on
a number of our important initiatives, and it will look
(11:11):
like the Democrats who did it. You cannot imagine how
insidious these bastards are. A John Cornan, a Mitch McConnell,
The things they will do. It's it's hard to understand,
you know, when you think of a serial killer, for instance,
(11:32):
you can't put yourself into the mindset because we don't
think like he does as to how you would live
your whole life putting yourself into a position.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
To kill someone. It's it's it's your imagination can't go
to that place.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Your imagination cannot go to the place of how evil
John Corny and Mitch mcconaugh are cannot.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
And the people behind them.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
You have to understand that government is nothing but a
business to a number of these people.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
And that's how they justify it.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's that's how these big contributors who run our government,
big pharma, big military, big education for that matter, that's
how they justify what they're doing is hey, you know,
Buzzard's got to eat. They justify this on the basis that,
(12:36):
you know, they have.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
A lot of expenses.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
You know, they like having a second home and a
third home and a private plane and sending their kids
to expensive schools, and so, you know, got to do
what you got to do, and so they can't. A
merchant in that sense, a money grubber in that sense,
cannot allow himself to have principles. And people like this,
(13:00):
people like this are not capable of love, of trust,
of sacrifice. They can't understand people who are. They look
down on people who are. They view such things as
conviction and faith and trust and honor and dignity and
sacrifice as weaknesses because in their world it would be
(13:26):
what did Molly Ivans say about serving in the Texas House.
If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, and
screw their women and vote against them the next morning,
you won't make it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
That's what it is. It's a racket.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
It's Houston City Council, it's the State of Texas, the
Austin Capital, it's every capital across the country. It's Albany,
it's Sacramento, and it's Washington, DC and spades. Because you've
got a big, fat federal government, a lot of money
to hand out, and they're taking it from you and
the people who want it. It is a business government
(14:07):
when you think of it, you view government as how
we build our roads and defend our nation and do
the things we have to do as a community, build
the infrastructure. They view government purely as a business. Mike Lee,
(14:30):
Senator Mike Lee from UTASS says, we're about this was
one minute ago. We're about ninety minutes into the Senate
GOP conference. We will likely cast the first round of
ballots in the Republican leader race sometime in the next
thirty minutes. After the speech is from the three candidates,
and those nominating and seconding them conclude, all right, look,
(14:51):
this is pretty much a show. Even within that chamber,
it's a show. They know what the votes are, the
deals have been cut. That's the way this works. I mean, look,
drunk Dad almost lost his state rep race. The only
(15:12):
reason he won is they had over a thousand Democrats
come and vote in the Republican primary in the runoff race,
and he only won by a couple hundred votes.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
So you do the math.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
These were Democrat voters that had never voted in a
Republican primary and they were voting in a runoff. Now,
how do you get over a thousand Democrats to vote
in a Republican runoff primary runoff? You think about how
diabolical that is. I'll give you a hint. It ain't
all Republicans coordinating that. You had Democrats and Republican establishment
(15:52):
types spending a lot of money. He's still raising when
he's got a big fundraiser coming up in Houston. You've
got a lot of wealthy Texans who were the stalwarts
of the Republican movement for decades who cannot stand Trump.
They cannot stand Paxton. And it makes them crazy. It
(16:15):
makes them do things like a buck and rut. It
makes them do things that are irrational and insane and
mommy dearest kind of stuff. You know, it's crazy over
the coat hanger kind of stuff. And they've embarrassed themselves
and I hate it. I hate it because these are
(16:35):
people who continue to be important parts of the movement
to fix our country, but they have decided to declare
war on what they see as the peasants, the America
First crowd, the people who don't want the government.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
To swell up and be bloated.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
And they've pitched in, They've pitched in with with some
really really dirty players. When you really dig in, and
the story should be told publicly because it hasn't been.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
When you really.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Dig in to who was behind Nicki Haley's presidential campaign
and who was funding it, and there were some Texans
who were part of this, and you look at the
ties between those people and the Bushes and the Cheneye
and the Romney's.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
It is and these are the same people who are
so crazed.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I mean, I mean the homeless guy at the bus
stop that you drive by and he's button naked, kind
of crazed.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Over Ken Paxton. These people I worry about Ken Paxton's safety.
These people are so crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
They have been willing to destroy the goodwill that they
have established over decades to destroy Ken Paxton.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Look, I got it. You don't like the guy.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
He does nothing more than when when when he beats
the Biden administration.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
But it's ego and it goes back to him whipping.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Their ass when they wanted Dan Branch to be the
Attorney general and he ran and we voted for him,
and they're pissed off about it, and as a result,
they're going to burn this whole thing to the ground.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Corning is their.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
God, not to my hand, to the keeper the stone
and cover and talk so many things that you know,
(19:05):
my hair was a little man. I just wanted your love.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Do you remember where you were when you heard this song?
Maybe not the first time, I mean just a memory.
I was a freshman in high school. I had a
girlfriend who.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Was a junior.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I thought she was a senior, but she was a
junior named of the net Fuse leader. She was a cheerleader,
and I was a fish. So you can imagine you're
a lowly.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Freshman, although I thought I was a cat daddy. And
she is a junior.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
She's very popular, she's very pretty, and she was dating
Troy Grooms, who was our starting tailback on the varsity
football team.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
He was a senior. Not Troy Grooms.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Uh gosh, maybe it was Troid Grooms.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Rai's older brother. Yeah, maybe it was troug grooms gott arouse.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I haven't thought about this stuff in almost forty years.
And they broke up, and she and I started dating,
and I went to the prom with her. Problem was
only for juniors and seniors. So there I am walking
around the prom as a freshman. I think that was
(20:37):
awkward for everybody but me.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Yep, I'm here. Hey, Barry, aren't you a freshman? Yep?
My girl brought me, She drove me here. You were
a substitute teacher for your girlfriend. What does that even mean?
Speaker 6 (20:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
She was two years younger than you, and you graduated
and came in as a substitute teacher at twenty.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Oh that's a brilliant idea. You were nineteen. Yeah, that's
a great idea. Let's send a nineteen year old in
to teach seniors a dude, Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? They?
I bet they did get all these But can we
focus on my story here? This was my song because
(21:26):
Tony Lewis has a line in there where he says,
you know, I like my girls a little bit older,
and Lynette bought me this cassette. Now you got to
realize when you're in high school, you're on there's two
types of people. That's it, and that's all either people
who can drive and on a car and everybody else.
(21:51):
If you can't drive or don't own a car and
you're in high school, you might as well be a kindergartener.
Like you stand out front and wait to be picked up.
You stand in front of the paid phone and you're
calling your your mom like long can you come pick
me up? All the kids that can drive are driving
past me and I'm standing out here and they're going,
(22:13):
what are you doing?
Speaker 6 (22:14):
And I can't drive yet?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Sonnett would pick me up in the morning and take
me home after school.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
How about that? You talk about world by the tail? Yes,
indeed she lives in Portland now. She's very successful.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I haven't seen her in since we since she graduated,
I guess, actually, but wonderful person.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
She was Church of Christ. She runs a marketing firm.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Actually she has she's she's independent, runs a marketing I
don't I don't know. I just I hear things from
people that we all went to school with, and uh,
you know, so I get updates on people. And her
brother beat me up one time. Steven he's our biggest listener.
I'm totally lives in Florida. And my thought on him
(23:10):
beating me up was it was the most not the
only ass whipon I ever got, but it was by
far the most justified because I had run my mouth
about his sister. And I will tell you this, I've
never ever done that before or since, and I'm ashamed
and embarrassed about it.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
And it was, it was. It was a.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Terrible, petty, small man thing to do. And uh, he
followed me out of algebra class. He was a year
older than me, but he was twice my size, and
he was a tough dude. Stephen Fuser was a tough
dude and I was shall we say not.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
And so we were.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Out in the ag Annex, which was a sheep metal
building where half the building was for was for welding repairs,
because we had a welding department, because we were a
real school with real applied skill sets, and next to
the act building, which is where the.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Animals and all were kept.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
And so while we were in I was a freshman
soming algebra.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Probably while we're in that class, I'm hearing, you know,
the the the cars being welded down or you know,
ground down next door. And he followed me out of
class and we're walking back to the Alamo, which was
our old building that had been built in nineteen twenty seven,
which was our original building, and he came up from
behind me and started proceeding to put an ass whoopon
(24:42):
on me.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
And I didn't even push back because he was absolutely right.
I ran my mouth.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
That's a very very unchivalrous thing to do. I was
raised better. So by that evening, my.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Brother Chris has found out about it and he's going
to march to the school and he's gonna whip Steve.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
And Fuselier's asked for me because he's my big brother
and that's what you do, and I said, nope, I
deserved it. It's a learning experience. I will never ever
dishonor a girl again. And he didn't like it because
he didn't want his little brother to get beat up,
but he respected it and we laughed about it over
(25:20):
the years and when people when listeners in Florida or
people that went to high school with will talk about
Stephen Fusilier, What a great Steven Fusilier.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Do you know him?
Speaker 2 (25:30):
He says, y'all went to high school, And I'll say, yes,
he delivered an ass whipping on me that I absolutely
deserved and in some odd way appreciate to this day
because I learned from that, because every woman, in addition
to be a to being a freestanding independent person, is
(25:52):
somebody else's daughter, sister, mother.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Friend, wife.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
And you know, you, when you consider it on that level,
doesn't mean you can't criticize a woman. It just means
that you need to consider before you do that. I
am of the old fashioned sense that women are to
be honored and respected, and I didn't do that, and so, yeah,
(26:20):
it was it was a learning experience. Rick Deering also
whipped my butt, but that was because we both made
the All Star team and we were both catchers, and
he said that he was going to be starting on
the All Star team and then I was going to
be his backup. And I got mad, and so I
punched him in the face and got on top of
him and started beating him, and he splpped me over,
be snot out of him until my coach came pulled
(26:42):
him off of me.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Please clap, please, police, clap.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
I see trees so green, red roses too.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I see them blue.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
Farming here, and I.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Think to myself.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
What I wonder for? I see sky's some blue and
drive some white, the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,
(27:37):
and I think to myself.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
What I wonder for.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I got a nice message from Benny Tortorella at Muscle
Cars of Texas this morning, and he says, are and
the sky to day would be a great day to
come down the faces.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
You can visit what you call the museum.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
We have Studebaker's pontiacs Ford, Chevyes, Corvettes, Mustangs. It's a
beautiful day at Muscle Cars at Texas. And I said,
these are all project cars, cars that he's working with
the clients what he does for a living.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
How cool is that?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
By the way, we had our sponsor event last week
and Vinnie Tortorella and his wife jan were there. And
did you see his fingernails. He looks like a Marilyn
Manson goth. His fingernails are black.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
So I grabbed his hand and I pulled it up
to me where I could see it, and.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I looked at him and I honestly thought, I mean,
I knew my uncle was a mechanic, so he had
the same kind of fingers.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
But I pulled his fingers up. It looked like he
had painted his nails black, but he hadn't.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Obviously, the outer portion of his nail because I scratched it,
had nothing on it. But the underside of his nails.
The bed is permanently black. Let's look, it's a career
working on cars, man. It's you don't realize how good
we have it. You sit in there, you order your
lunch on your ass, air conditioning running, and hit the
(29:17):
ding or ever so.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Often, just just to kind of proof of life. Don
Ramon's in there so anyway, but he loves what he does.
His wife jan answers the phone.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
So Anny Tortorella invites me down, and I said, don't
know if I'm gonna be able to make it. I'm
gonna do my best, because I told him, I'm going
to pick a pretty day and come down and we're
just going to play around on some of these cool cars.
I said, pick ten cars on the lot right now
that you're working on. He said, all right, So he
sent me one by one with a photo. This is
(29:48):
a rare nineteen sixty three m Paula Twodor hard Top
four O nine four speed with a pusy traction.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Oh my goodness, we just excited.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
There's a certain there's a certain element of our audience
that those deeds right there, the Bobby Crumpley crowd, they.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Just lost their minds.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Customer wants to update it and make it more driveable,
so we're installing fuel injection and upgrading the suspension and brakes.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
I'm a post these to Facebook case these are cool pictures.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Next one is a rare sixty two Pontiac Grand Prix
two four barrel Corborreator's four speed transmission, factory air conditioning,
and we are prepping her for sale by the customer.
Did I tell you he ended up with my International Scout.
He had a car show down in Galveston and he
sent me a message and he said, hey, I was
just told that you owned this scout up until a
(30:38):
couple months ago.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
And I said I did. He goes it's beautiful. I said,
thank you. Why is it there?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
And he said the owner's selling it. So I called
Donnie Roberts and corn Bread and I said, hey, everything okay,
I mean, did I sell you a limit? Because I'll
just take it back. And Donnie has had He was
a tennis pro when he started life. He ended up
as Jim Crane's business partner, did very well. He's the
one that owns He and he and Cornborated, his wife
owned original Taxana. They use it as an event center,
(31:09):
but they live there. They own a lot of acreage
in Chapel Hill. It's a beautiful old ranch and it's
got these farmhouses that he's bought and it's like it
looks like a movie set.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
That is what it looks like.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's glorious and you can rent it out for weddings
and stuff like that. But he said no, he's got
real bad knees and he just had his knees replaced
and he said, Michael, you did nothing wrong.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I didn't want you to know. I couldn't shift the gears.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
It was causing me too much pain, and so I
just decided to sell it. Don't worry about it because
I didn't you know, if he was selling it immediately,
if there was something wrong with it, that's on me.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I need to make it right. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
This next one, Ramon, this is the one I want.
This sixty three Studebaker Avanti is here for a tune up,
breaks and all around reliability check. I would like to
know who owns that. That is a glorious looks like
the old Centurion. This sixty four Corvette resto mod was
in a brutal accident which bent the frame and blew
off the front end. So this is a true frame
(32:07):
off restoration, but with all updated motor, transmission brakes. And
the color is a custom color created right here at
Muscle Cars or Texas. It looks like it's got some silver,
some green, and some blue in it. And it's some convertile.
It's whoof this is something else? This sixty nine Mustang
custom custom custom Everything on this car, fenders, doors, hood, roof, interior, engine,
(32:31):
engine compartment have been custom fabricated. Also another custom color
that we made right here at Muscle Cars of Texas.
And then there's an extra picture of the sixty nine
Mustang motor which what.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Do I know?
Speaker 1 (32:42):
But oh, that's a cool picture. I can't toven. I
don't know what I'm looking at.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
This is the seventy four Bronco that we are building
for our marine that was blown up. We are prepping
it for paint. Was given to her by the Corman
mechanic that saved her life on the transport helicopter. By
the way, I told Vinnie I would help him out
on that. He's got one hundred thousand dollars in this Bronco.
And what happened is she was blown up and lost
(33:07):
her legs, and the medic who helped her, I think
it's in Iraq, might be Afghanis. I think it's all right.
The medic who was carrying her, she looks down. She
has no legs and bloods gushing, and she said, I'm
gonna die. Put me down, go get somebody else.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
I'm going to die.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
She's a marine. And he said, no, you're going to survive.
She said, no, I'm going to die. I've lost my legs.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I have no reason to live. And as he's.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
As he's carrying her in his arms, he says, let
me tell you about my nineteen seventy four Bronco. I've
got a nineteen seventy four Bronco.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
You know anything about old vehicles, She says, I love
old vehicles. My dad had old vehicles.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
So she starts, oh, I wish he hadn't sent his picture.
So he starts telling her about that and he.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Said, I tell you what, if you will live, I
will give you that Bronco. And she said, you're on
and he did.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
And they got back and it took two years for
her to go through her all her treatment and all that.
I don't know if she lost both legs. I think
she lost both lists. And I know she messed her
up real bad. I don't remember exactly all the details,
but she's bleeding out and dying.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Whatever this story was.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
And he honored it. He gave her the Bronco. Well,
the Bronco was not in the best of ship. So
they came to Vinnie Tortorello and they told him the
story and he said, I'll do as much of the
work as I can and we'll see if we can
get people to pitch in. So I told Vinnie came
up about sixty thousand dollars short on what he was
on what he was donating, and I said, I'll find
(34:49):
somebody that'll write me a thirty thousand dollars check and
you and I take him to dinner and at least
cut into what you've done, because he does stuff like
that all the time. So thanks to Vinnie Tortorella.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Muscle cours. The text, isn't it. If you'll be our
thirty thousand.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Dollars donor, then you and me and Bennie will present
the bronco when it's finished, as you see these pictures
to her, and we'll have the medic who donated to her,
and we'll have a moment. And that's gonna be a moment.
We'll have Chance mcclaim film it, because that's gonna be
a moment, a moment.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
You want to come, we'll eat. Oh, you're gonna cry.
You don't want to cry. You want to cry in
your beard.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Three and a half years ago, Jeffrey Johnson was murdered
at his home in League City in June of.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Twenty twenty one. The UH.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
The man who was charged and arrested, Devon Jordan, was
granted a bond, which he posted, and he was out
on tiple bonds having murdered somebody until the trials started
(01:05):
October twenty eighth, just a few weeks ago. He should
have never been on the street in the first place.
This is where this whole thing goes wrong. During the
crime spree of Devon Jordan two weeks before he killed
Jeffrey Johnson, he killed Josh Sandoval. In both cases he followed.
(01:34):
He followed the victims to their homes to rob them,
but the robberies were botched and he murdered them. He
should have never been on the street again. He should
have been thrown away. Well, we got a guilty verdict,
which doesn't bring Jeffrey Johnson back, but it's a step
(01:58):
in the right direction. Amy Castillo is Jeffrey Johnson's sister.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Amy. Welcome to the program.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
No, I'm sorry, I'm not his sister. I was I'm
Joshua Pannaval.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I'm sorry, you're josh Sandevos. I'm sorry. I did know that.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I'm looking at my nose. I was thinking of my
own brother and imagining the grief my mistake.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
You're Josh's sister.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yes, sir, you were in the courtroom when the verdict
came back, and I noticed that you said to Randy Wallace, who,
by the way, Randy Wallace has done a wonderful job
on this story. Randy Wallace at Fox twenty six as
part of their Breaking Bond series, that you were told
(02:41):
you couldn't react. I have a problem with that. But
how did you feel knowing that this monster had been convicted.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh, it was just a huge weight lifted off our shoulders.
I had been praying relentlessly for a very long time,
and then when the trial started, hearing both sides, I
was there for a little bit of the days and
going back on Tuesday yesterday and hearing the verdict, I
(03:11):
just I was. I was very excited to hear that
the jury, the jury was right. You know, they made
made the right decisions, and I was a little nervous,
but I know, I just I prayed a lot, and
they made the right decisions, and I was I was
(03:33):
just very excited, and yeah, I couldn't. I couldn't respond react.
I just mouthed like thank you or yes or something
to that effect, and I just started crying.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Were you by yourself?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
No, I wasn't by myself. I had my husband with me,
and I was there to support mister Johnson's family. Number One.
I know that this was their their case, this was
their father and their husband, and I didn't want to
step on anybody's toes, but I just wanted to show
them my support. And they knew who I was from
the commercials, and then I also, you know, introduced myself
(04:09):
and told him who I was, and they knew my
brother's name, and so they understood. While we were all
there together, it was mister Johnson Stanley as well.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Tell me about Josh Sandoval, Who was he? What kind
of person was he? Tell me what y'all did together?
Tell me about your bond.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Well, I was ten years older than my brother, so
I kind of took care of him, and I have
really good memories of taking care of him and baby
fitting him, and he was just the cutest little baby
in the whole world. And he grew up to be
such an amazing person. And he loved to play basketball,
(04:49):
he loved hanging out with his friends. I mean he
just did you know, typical young twenties stuff. Just everybody him.
He could never do anything ill towards anybody. He was
always laughing, cracking jokes, just a smile on his face,
(05:12):
just all the time. He just was an amazing person.
And it saddens me that I don't get to see
him smile or laugh anymore. And I don't know what
his future would have been because he was murdered at
twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Tell me what happened.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Well, he was targeted and followed home and when they
went in through their garage, his garage, and I'm not
sure how it all happened, but he was shot and
they ran off and the person that was there in
(05:59):
the town home with him called the ambulance. He was
shot in the heart. One of the last things he
said was tell my tell my girlfriend, I love her,
Tell my mama, I love her. And then he never
said seeing it.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And then when you have to process that, he goes
off and kills another person and does what he's done
to your family to another family, and you see Harris
County judge and a Galveston judge letting him out to
walk the streets pending his trial.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I can't imagine how that has to feel. I mean
that the sense of I don't know, is it betrayal,
is it frustration?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Is it confused? Can you help me understand that?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
It's definitely confusion. I understand and what you know, judges
have to do or I think they have to do,
But it does feel like a backstab to set a
(07:16):
bond at such a price that they could afford it.
You know, I'm under the impression that they have discretion
when it's capital murder, so why not say no bond?
He bonded out both times, so obviously this person could
have had the opportunity to walk around and be in
(07:40):
public with everybody else. I just feel that it was
a shame that they didn't take into consideration his past.
I guess activity to see maybe this person shouldn't be
out because we know what he's doing when he's not
in jail. So it did just feel like we were
(08:04):
not cared about I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
You've spoken out, you have, Uh, of course people will
criticize you for that, but you don't seem to care.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's more important.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And you have shared your story, which is incredibly compelling,
and I think that in so doing you have honored
your brother, Amy Castillo, and I think you've shown incredible
courage and I hope you have inspired other people. This
is our country. We have to fix it, and that
means we can't hide and wait on someone else to
(08:37):
do it. I know this has been very difficult for you,
but on behalf of a lot of people, I want
to say thank.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You, Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I appreciate that, Amy Castillo.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It's a mile very Michael.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
All.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
It's so smony. I clus down. It seems to let
my heart it'll breaking into that says no, but my
(09:41):
soul demands it. If a thing I do reminds me
of you.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
It is being reported, not yet confirmed, that President Trump
will name Director of nash Intelligence Toolsey Gabbard, former vice
chair of the Democrat National Convention, military veteran, former congressman
(10:13):
from Hawaii, And may I say, HATI complete and utter haughty.
Gonn you like that little skunk thing she's got going.
It worked for Bonnie Raate, Bonny Rate cute. I don't
remember her being cute. Huh for an older woman. I'm
(10:35):
sure that makes you real popular with the older ladies.
What did I just ask you.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
To get for me?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
What do we? What do we so?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I don't I don't have a result yet, as soon
as I do. On the Senate Majority Leader, I'm going
to tell you something. If the Swamp wins this race,
there are going to be the failures to launch on
a number of our important initiatives, and it will look
(11:11):
like the Democrats who did it. You cannot imagine how
insidious these bastards are. A John Cornan, a Mitch McConnell,
The things they will do. It's it's hard to understand,
you know, when you think of a serial killer, for instance,
(11:32):
you can't put yourself into the mindset because we don't
think like he does as to how you would live
your whole life putting yourself into a position.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
To kill someone. It's it's it's your imagination can't go
to that place.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Your imagination cannot go to the place of how evil
John Corny and Mitch mcconaugh are cannot.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
And the people behind them.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
You have to understand that government is nothing but a
business to a number of these people.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
And that's how they justify it.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's that's how these big contributors who run our government,
big pharma, big military, big education for that matter, that's
how they justify what they're doing is hey, you know,
Buzzard's got to eat. They justify this on the basis that,
(12:36):
you know, they have.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
A lot of expenses.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
You know, they like having a second home and a
third home and a private plane and sending their kids
to expensive schools, and so, you know, got to do
what you got to do, and so they can't. A
merchant in that sense, a money grubber in that sense,
cannot allow himself to have principles. And people like this,
(13:00):
people like this are not capable of love, of trust,
of sacrifice. They can't understand people who are. They look
down on people who are. They view such things as
conviction and faith and trust and honor and dignity and
sacrifice as weaknesses because in their world it would be
(13:26):
what did Molly Ivans say about serving in the Texas House.
If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, and
screw their women and vote against them the next morning,
you won't make it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
That's what it is. It's a racket.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
It's Houston City Council, it's the State of Texas, the
Austin Capital, it's every capital across the country. It's Albany,
it's Sacramento, and it's Washington, DC and spades. Because you've
got a big, fat federal government, a lot of money
to hand out, and they're taking it from you and
the people who want it. It is a business government
(14:07):
when you think of it, you view government as how
we build our roads and defend our nation and do
the things we have to do as a community, build
the infrastructure. They view government purely as a business. Mike Lee,
(14:30):
Senator Mike Lee from UTASS says, we're about this was
one minute ago. We're about ninety minutes into the Senate
GOP conference. We will likely cast the first round of
ballots in the Republican leader race sometime in the next
thirty minutes. After the speech is from the three candidates,
and those nominating and seconding them conclude, all right, look,
(14:51):
this is pretty much a show. Even within that chamber,
it's a show. They know what the votes are, the
deals have been cut. That's the way this works. I mean, look,
drunk Dad almost lost his state rep race. The only
(15:12):
reason he won is they had over a thousand Democrats
come and vote in the Republican primary in the runoff race,
and he only won by a couple hundred votes.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
So you do the math.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
These were Democrat voters that had never voted in a
Republican primary and they were voting in a runoff. Now,
how do you get over a thousand Democrats to vote
in a Republican runoff primary runoff? You think about how
diabolical that is. I'll give you a hint. It ain't
all Republicans coordinating that. You had Democrats and Republican establishment
(15:52):
types spending a lot of money. He's still raising when
he's got a big fundraiser coming up in Houston. You've
got a lot of wealthy Texans who were the stalwarts
of the Republican movement for decades who cannot stand Trump.
They cannot stand Paxton. And it makes them crazy. It
(16:15):
makes them do things like a buck and rut. It
makes them do things that are irrational and insane and
mommy dearest kind of stuff. You know, it's crazy over
the coat hanger kind of stuff. And they've embarrassed themselves
and I hate it. I hate it because these are
(16:35):
people who continue to be important parts of the movement
to fix our country, but they have decided to declare
war on what they see as the peasants, the America
First crowd, the people who don't want the government.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
To swell up and be bloated.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
And they've pitched in, They've pitched in with with some
really really dirty players. When you really dig in, and
the story should be told publicly because it hasn't been.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
When you really.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Dig in to who was behind Nicki Haley's presidential campaign
and who was funding it, and there were some Texans
who were part of this, and you look at the
ties between those people and the Bushes and the Cheneye
and the Romney's.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
It is and these are the same people who are
so crazed.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I mean, I mean the homeless guy at the bus
stop that you drive by and he's button naked, kind
of crazed.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Over Ken Paxton. These people I worry about Ken Paxton's safety.
These people are so crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
They have been willing to destroy the goodwill that they
have established over decades to destroy Ken Paxton.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Look, I got it. You don't like the guy.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
He does nothing more than when when when he beats
the Biden administration.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
But it's ego and it goes back to him whipping.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Their ass when they wanted Dan Branch to be the
Attorney general and he ran and we voted for him,
and they're pissed off about it, and as a result,
they're going to burn this whole thing to the ground.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Corning is their.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
God, not to my hand, to the keeper the stone
and cover and talk so many things that you know,
(19:05):
my hair was a little man. I just wanted your love.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Do you remember where you were when you heard this song?
Maybe not the first time, I mean just a memory.
I was a freshman in high school. I had a
girlfriend who.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Was a junior.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I thought she was a senior, but she was a
junior named of the net Fuse leader. She was a cheerleader,
and I was a fish. So you can imagine you're
a lowly.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Freshman, although I thought I was a cat daddy. And
she is a junior.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
She's very popular, she's very pretty, and she was dating
Troy Grooms, who was our starting tailback on the varsity
football team.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
He was a senior. Not Troy Grooms.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Uh gosh, maybe it was Troid Grooms.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Rai's older brother. Yeah, maybe it was troug grooms gott arouse.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I haven't thought about this stuff in almost forty years.
And they broke up, and she and I started dating,
and I went to the prom with her. Problem was
only for juniors and seniors. So there I am walking
around the prom as a freshman. I think that was
(20:37):
awkward for everybody but me.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Yep, I'm here. Hey, Barry, aren't you a freshman? Yep?
My girl brought me, She drove me here. You were
a substitute teacher for your girlfriend. What does that even mean?
Speaker 6 (20:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
She was two years younger than you, and you graduated
and came in as a substitute teacher at twenty.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Oh that's a brilliant idea. You were nineteen. Yeah, that's
a great idea. Let's send a nineteen year old in
to teach seniors a dude, Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? They?
I bet they did get all these But can we
focus on my story here? This was my song because
(21:26):
Tony Lewis has a line in there where he says,
you know, I like my girls a little bit older,
and Lynette bought me this cassette. Now you got to
realize when you're in high school, you're on there's two
types of people. That's it, and that's all either people
who can drive and on a car and everybody else.
(21:51):
If you can't drive or don't own a car and
you're in high school, you might as well be a kindergartener.
Like you stand out front and wait to be picked up.
You stand in front of the paid phone and you're
calling your your mom like long can you come pick
me up? All the kids that can drive are driving
past me and I'm standing out here and they're going,
(22:13):
what are you doing?
Speaker 6 (22:14):
And I can't drive yet?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Sonnett would pick me up in the morning and take
me home after school.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
How about that? You talk about world by the tail? Yes,
indeed she lives in Portland now. She's very successful.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I haven't seen her in since we since she graduated,
I guess, actually, but wonderful person.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
She was Church of Christ. She runs a marketing firm.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Actually she has she's she's independent, runs a marketing I
don't I don't know. I just I hear things from
people that we all went to school with, and uh,
you know, so I get updates on people. And her
brother beat me up one time. Steven he's our biggest listener.
I'm totally lives in Florida. And my thought on him
(23:10):
beating me up was it was the most not the
only ass whipon I ever got, but it was by
far the most justified because I had run my mouth
about his sister. And I will tell you this, I've
never ever done that before or since, and I'm ashamed
and embarrassed about it.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
And it was, it was. It was a.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Terrible, petty, small man thing to do. And uh, he
followed me out of algebra class. He was a year
older than me, but he was twice my size, and
he was a tough dude. Stephen Fuser was a tough
dude and I was shall we say not.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
And so we were.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Out in the ag Annex, which was a sheep metal
building where half the building was for was for welding repairs,
because we had a welding department, because we were a
real school with real applied skill sets, and next to
the act building, which is where the.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Animals and all were kept.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
And so while we were in I was a freshman
soming algebra.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Probably while we're in that class, I'm hearing, you know,
the the the cars being welded down or you know,
ground down next door. And he followed me out of
class and we're walking back to the Alamo, which was
our old building that had been built in nineteen twenty seven,
which was our original building, and he came up from
behind me and started proceeding to put an ass whoopon
(24:42):
on me.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
And I didn't even push back because he was absolutely right.
I ran my mouth.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
That's a very very unchivalrous thing to do. I was
raised better. So by that evening, my.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Brother Chris has found out about it and he's going
to march to the school and he's gonna whip Steve.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
And Fuselier's asked for me because he's my big brother
and that's what you do, and I said, nope, I
deserved it. It's a learning experience. I will never ever
dishonor a girl again. And he didn't like it because
he didn't want his little brother to get beat up,
but he respected it and we laughed about it over
(25:20):
the years and when people when listeners in Florida or
people that went to high school with will talk about
Stephen Fusilier, What a great Steven Fusilier.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Do you know him?
Speaker 2 (25:30):
He says, y'all went to high school, And I'll say, yes,
he delivered an ass whipping on me that I absolutely
deserved and in some odd way appreciate to this day
because I learned from that, because every woman, in addition
to be a to being a freestanding independent person, is
(25:52):
somebody else's daughter, sister, mother.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Friend, wife.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
And you know, you, when you consider it on that level,
doesn't mean you can't criticize a woman. It just means
that you need to consider before you do that. I
am of the old fashioned sense that women are to
be honored and respected, and I didn't do that, and so, yeah,
(26:20):
it was it was a learning experience. Rick Deering also
whipped my butt, but that was because we both made
the All Star team and we were both catchers, and
he said that he was going to be starting on
the All Star team and then I was going to
be his backup. And I got mad, and so I
punched him in the face and got on top of
him and started beating him, and he splpped me over,
be snot out of him until my coach came pulled
(26:42):
him off of me.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Please clap, please, police, clap.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
I see trees so green, red roses too.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I see them blue.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
Farming here, and I.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Think to myself.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
What I wonder for? I see sky's some blue and
drive some white, the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,
(27:37):
and I think to myself.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
What I wonder for.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I got a nice message from Benny Tortorella at Muscle
Cars of Texas this morning, and he says, are and
the sky to day would be a great day to
come down the faces.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
You can visit what you call the museum.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
We have Studebaker's pontiacs Ford, Chevyes, Corvettes, Mustangs. It's a
beautiful day at Muscle Cars at Texas. And I said,
these are all project cars, cars that he's working with
the clients what he does for a living.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
How cool is that?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
By the way, we had our sponsor event last week
and Vinnie Tortorella and his wife jan were there. And
did you see his fingernails. He looks like a Marilyn
Manson goth. His fingernails are black.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
So I grabbed his hand and I pulled it up
to me where I could see it, and.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I looked at him and I honestly thought, I mean,
I knew my uncle was a mechanic, so he had
the same kind of fingers.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
But I pulled his fingers up. It looked like he
had painted his nails black, but he hadn't.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Obviously, the outer portion of his nail because I scratched it,
had nothing on it. But the underside of his nails.
The bed is permanently black. Let's look, it's a career
working on cars, man. It's you don't realize how good
we have it. You sit in there, you order your
lunch on your ass, air conditioning running, and hit the
(29:17):
ding or ever so.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Often, just just to kind of proof of life. Don
Ramon's in there so anyway, but he loves what he does.
His wife jan answers the phone.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
So Anny Tortorella invites me down, and I said, don't
know if I'm gonna be able to make it. I'm
gonna do my best, because I told him, I'm going
to pick a pretty day and come down and we're
just going to play around on some of these cool cars.
I said, pick ten cars on the lot right now
that you're working on. He said, all right, So he
sent me one by one with a photo. This is
(29:48):
a rare nineteen sixty three m Paula Twodor hard Top
four O nine four speed with a pusy traction.
Speaker 1 (29:54):

Speaker 2 (29:55):
There's a certain there's a certain element of our audience
that those deeds right there, the Bobby Crumpley crowd, they.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Just lost their minds.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Customer wants to update it and make it more driveable,
so we're installing fuel injection and upgrading the suspension and brakes.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
Next one is a rare sixty two Pontiac Grand Prix
two four barrel Corborreator's four speed transmission, factory air conditioning,
and we are prepping her for sale by the customer.
Did I tell you he ended up with my International Scout.
He had a car show down in Galveston and he
sent me a message and he said, hey, I was
just told that you owned this scout up until a
(30:38):
couple months ago.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
And I said I did. He goes it's beautiful. I said,
thank you. Why is it there?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
And he said the owner's selling it. So I called
Donnie Roberts and corn Bread and I said, hey, everything okay,
I mean, did I sell you a limit? Because I'll
just take it back. And Donnie has had He was

got these farmhouses that he's bought and it's like it
looks like a movie set.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
That is what it looks like.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's glorious and you can rent it out for weddings
and stuff like that. But he said no, he's got
real bad knees and he just had his knees replaced
and he said, Michael, you did nothing wrong.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I didn't want you to know. I couldn't shift the gears.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
It was causing me too much pain, and so I
just decided to sell it. Don't worry about it because
I didn't you know, if he was selling it immediately,
if there was something wrong with it, that's on me.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I need to make it right. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
This next one, Ramon, this is the one I want.

Speaker 6 (32:42):

Speaker 1 (32:42):
But oh, that's a cool picture. I can't toven. I
don't know what I'm looking at.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
This is the seventy four Bronco that we are building
for our marine that was blown up. We are prepping
it for paint. Was given to her by the Corman
mechanic that saved her life on the transport helicopter. By
the way, I told Vinnie I would help him out
on that. He's got one hundred thousand dollars in this Bronco.
And what happened is she was blown up and lost
(33:07):
her legs, and the medic who helped her, I think
it's in Iraq, might be Afghanis. I think it's all right.
The medic who was carrying her, she looks down. She
has no legs and bloods gushing, and she said, I'm
gonna die. Put me down, go get somebody else.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
I'm going to die.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
She's a marine. And he said, no, you're going to survive.
She said, no, I'm going to die. I've lost my legs.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I have no reason to live. And as he's.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
As he's carrying her in his arms, he says, let
me tell you about my nineteen seventy four Bronco. I've
got a nineteen seventy four Bronco.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
You know anything about old vehicles, She says, I love
old vehicles. My dad had old vehicles.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
So she starts, oh, I wish he hadn't sent his picture.
So he starts telling her about that and he.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Said, I tell you what, if you will live, I
will give you that Bronco. And she said, you're on
and he did.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
And they got back and it took two years for
her to go through her all her treatment and all that.
I don't know if she lost both legs. I think
she lost both lists. And I know she messed her
up real bad. I don't remember exactly all the details,
but she's bleeding out and dying.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Whatever this story was.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
And he honored it. He gave her the Bronco. Well,
the Bronco was not in the best of ship. So
they came to Vinnie Tortorello and they told him the
story and he said, I'll do as much of the
work as I can and we'll see if we can
get people to pitch in. So I told Vinnie came
up about sixty thousand dollars short on what he was
on what he was donating, and I said, I'll find
(34:49):
somebody that'll write me a thirty thousand dollars check and
you and I take him to dinner and at least
cut into what you've done, because he does stuff like
that all the time. So thanks to Vinnie Tortorella.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Muscle cours. The text, isn't it. If you'll be our
thirty thousand.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Dollars donor, then you and me and Bennie will present
the bronco when it's finished, as you see these pictures
to her, and we'll have the medic who donated to her,
and we'll have a moment. And that's gonna be a moment.
We'll have Chance mcclaim film it, because that's gonna be
a moment, a moment.
Speaker 1 (35:20):

You don't want to cry. You want to cry in
your beard.
