Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time time time, luck and load. So Michael
Very show is on the air. We have opened the
(00:47):
phone lines. King of Ding does not like the phone
to ring while we're on the air if he doesn't
think I'm gonna take calls, so he closes down the
phone line, which makes me crazy. So I sent a
message to uh Lindsey Singleton to see if she would
(01:10):
come on the show and talk about her tweet, which
now has one point four million views. That's crazy. I
don't think she expected that. I said n f A.
It's DFA designated for assignment, not n f A. Yeah,
(01:35):
so now we've corrected that. Let's go to the phone lines.
I have asked her to come on the show, so
if she calls in, we will take that. Richard. Is
it Richard or Richard?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Richard Zar it's Richard.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Would you mind if I call you Richard?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I would.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
By the way, you know it's bothered me all the years.
Can I just tell you something real quick as this
is by the millions, yeers, Jr. Richard was from Louisiana.
I think he was from Rustin if I remember correctly,
but I might be wrong on the town. But Jr.
Richard was from Louisiana and when there's no s on
the end of it, it is Rishard and they missed
(02:19):
a great opportunity. How cool would it sound to say, Jr.
Richard the picture of the astros Oh Vienna. Sorry he
was from the Louisiana Oh no, No, he went to
high school in Ruston. I was right. See I thought
I was wrong, but I was wrong.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
All right, zar Zar, We're taking the Teach Me the
Bible podcast and Bible conference on the road with David
Klingler October tenth and eleventh. We're going from beautiful Serene
and not as pagan Brandham, Texas and bringing it to
(03:03):
the less the more pagan, less pure Spring, Texas, to
a church. We're having it at a church in Spring
called Northwest Bible Church October tenth and eleventh, Friday and Saturday,
featuring David Klingler and many other good Bible teachers. And
(03:23):
the cost will be very minimal, as you know, and
we appreciate you promoting it prior the last time earlier
this year and having that great segment I think multiple
segments with doctor Klingler, and he'd love to come on
when we get closer obviously this is very premature, if
you will, but I thought we'd start talking about it
a little bit and get it promoted.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
How much is it going to cost?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Probably the same as if I don't know what it was,
like twenty five dollars or something ridiculous like that for
the whole thing. You get lunch on Saturday that's included,
so as you know, they're not making money. It's uh,
it is to teach the Bible and do what doctor Klingler.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
I just called him Cleingland. He's been a friend of
mine for thirty plus years and I was his student
in seminary. So I just call him Clingler. But he
doesn't mind that, so I don't. I don't. I don't
give him the due respect that because he doesn't want it.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Really, he has been a collegiate and professional athlete. I
think he's probably been called right. Think it would bother him, right,
You know, I had such a response to having him on.
I had such a response folks, and so many folks
told me they went a lot of folks it was
(04:46):
it was too late in the day because it was
just coming up like that. Can I'm not a I'm
not a planner like, if you look at my schedule,
I refuse to put things on my schedule because I
like to do things in the moment, and if I
put something on my schedule, then I don't feel like it,
or I want to travel, or I've got to meet,
I don't do it. Me I got something else comes
up and I can't do it. So but but most
(05:08):
people are not like me. They they like to plan,
They like to have every They like to have their
schedule with a lot of stuff on it. So if
they have something on there already, even if what they
have on there already is dumb, you know, cleaning out
the garage. Oh I've put that down, I can't go
to it. But I had a lot of folks who
told me they went to it and absolutely loved it.
They did, they did, So if they want, yeah, they did,
(05:30):
for sure.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I talked to a bunch of mis up parking lot greeters.
So doctor Klingler preached this last Sunday on Ecclesiastes. He
did an overview. So if anyone wants to go to
Champion Fellowship dot com or dot org, I should say
I think it's dot org. They could listen to Klingler's sermon,
which was very good. I'm not going to tell them that.
(05:51):
I don't want to say it to get big, but
it was an excellent sermon. I probably just did tell
them that h an overview of Ecclesiastes and it was
spent x. So if anyone wants they taste, they could.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yes. Wait, what's their website again?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I think it should be Championfellowship dot org. If you
just put in Champion Fellowship Brenham, it's going to pull up.
You know. If you do, I use your Google machine,
as you like to say, use your Google machine, and
you'll be able to find, uh, Champion Fellowship.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Let me get this right. How old are you?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I'm fifty nine and a half, well fifty nine and
almost I'll be sixty at the end of the year.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You have a great radio voice, by the way, Uh
and you were the parking lot of Tenant this past
weekend or at the I was one of them.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
No, no, no, I had that at the conference. Yeah, yeah,
I do. I do other things. I volunteer in other things.
That was in June. Yeah, that first one wasn't you're
talking about the conference or with the one? He just no,
you were parking a.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Lot of tenant this past weekend. Is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
No? No, no parking life.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
For the conference that was in May or June, it
was hot as hades. How about that? It was hot
as hades? Whenever it was right now, I think it.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Was made it was.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
It wasn't.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Yeah, it wasn't as hot as hades as it is now,
like these last three?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
What do you do for anyways?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I'm outside sales. Remember I'm the I'm the gentleman that
went back to seminary at forty five years old, Bible
College or seminary. And that's uh, you know, I had Klingler.
I walked into the class the first day. Klingler goes, oh,
I was hoping this wasn't you go ahead.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
You can't call yourself the gentleman. That's like saying I'm
e collected. I want to get this straight. You are
fifty nine and a half and you stood on your
feet out in the parking lot in the Houston area heat,
the Brinham heat. Well that's than being inside that. Listen,
if I were to gel down what it means to
(07:49):
me to be a Christian. I think a lot of
people think Christian means you're a member of a church.
People respect you, people buy your products, people think you
have integrity. None of that Christian means christ like following
literally in his footsteps. I can think of nothing more.
(08:13):
That's that's washing the feet of the disciples. Dude, you
you have my ultimate respect. That is a servant of
the Lord. I said that, bro, hat's off my er.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Hither is it's gonna come to youse?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Take me to this song? That's it. I think. I
think Pat and Corey playing my birthday party. It's fifty five.
I wouldn't do myself a birthday party, but it is.
(08:50):
We haven't done anything in a while. I can't focus
on it till we close out our Palm Beach three trip.
We have a few slots left. So if you've been
thinking about doing the Palm Beach trip with us at
mar a Lago the first nights at Marlago in late October,
some of the folks are gonna stay at Marlago. We're
gonna do a lottery just so you know. Marlago is
(09:13):
not big enough to hold our group. So I think
we have seven rooms at mar Alago. So we do
three pieces to the trip. There's a dinner at my house.
To start, there's the trip to Palm Beach, private jets, yachts,
dinner at Marlago. It's pretty cool. And then the third
one is to wrap up at my house again and
(09:37):
that's when chances film that he makes about our trip
is aired. So if you're interested in potentially going email
me through the website Michael Berryshow dot com Michael Berryshow
dot com. And now a word from our sponsor about

Speaker 5 (10:21):
One on Life with the Bend.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Cory Booker. This goofy, goofy, goofy senator from New Jersey
was very angry. He's very angry period. He's very angry. Well,
he came out and said that a Democrat senator from
(10:50):
Nevada had disrespected him. It was a catfight around and
I think he wanted to pull her hair or something,
maybe pull her wig off because he was not happy.
And when Corey is not happy, you're gonna hear about it. Okay,
you're gonna hear about it. And this was Corey on
the floor of the Senate and Corey is very, very angry.
(11:12):
What's a speech spederment? Pediman fuck? Democratic Party needs a
wake up call.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
I see law firms bending a knee to this president,
not caring about the larger principles that don't free speech right?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
They want any client, Why are you bending the knee.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
I see university.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Whoa she should make friends with his stress.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Maybe he'd calm down if he could see a child's
behind the should be free.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
Speech bending at the knee to this president. I see
businesses taking late I talk the air because they're there
to insult a president.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I see people who want.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
Mergers so that they have to pay tribute to this
present not dad.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Have bub so a number of people. I spoke to
Uncle Jerry during the break and he sounded a little low,
and I was worried. And he's just low because he
was canceling some travel that he and his wife werenee
were scheduled to have, but they rushed his surgery earlier
(12:27):
than expected because the bones are shattered in the bottom
of his foot and they had to rebuild his foot.
And in the middle of all that, in the middle
of the surgery, unexpected, they had to take off his
pinky toe because in the rebuilding they had to remove
some some bones that were over near the pinky toe,
so there was no structure for that. So it was
just gonna be a little flap there and that was
going to cause all sorts of problems. And so we
(12:50):
made a tribute to things taken from us too soon,
you know Ozzy Osbourne Hulk Hogan thing from the Cosby Show,
and and Uncle Jerry's pinky toe. Since some of you
didn't get to hear that, here it is. This is

Green's ever cracked a Bible, So you got that too.
This segment is called your host reads from a text
(18:25):
exchange with Chad Nakanishi yesterday afternoon. Here is my voice
none that though wants to know what fish is most
common and most popular in Hawaii, and she wants to
know if you are a fish person or exclusively I
(18:46):
wrote poor person, but it's supposed to be pork person
because Hawaiians eat a lot of pork. And but Chad
is very, very like, when you go into the doctor,
you know how, there's a little bit of shame when
you have in your blood panels done, which you should
be having your blood panels done because blood tells you
a lot, you know how, when you go into the
doctor and you're kind of embarrassed. He's like, oh, my
(19:10):
cholesterolsheim my liver numbers are gonna be ime a. BP's
gonna be high.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Ooh.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
But then it's kind of like when there's an exam
you didn't study for, you sort of think, well, but
maybe maybe I'll do okay, right, maybe maybe I'll maybe
I'll do okay maybe, and it's not gonna happen. You're
gonna have bad numbers. So that was my question. So
Chad's response was as far as eating he means as
(19:40):
opposed to fishing. It's ahi, mahi, mahi, alua aku and o. No.
I don't know what they're called in English, but I'm
sure they are related to stuff. You know. I was
never a big fish eater, but I've become more of
one as i've gotten older. Raw or seared ahi is
(20:00):
my favorite. But it has lots of mercury. I said, yes,
I have read that is the problem with it. The
mercury is terrible. See, this is my reason I'm not
eating all that fish. Really, I just don't like fish
other than catfish. I just found out the reason she
asked and wanted me to ask you is that she's
reading about blue zones again. My wife gets in a
(20:22):
blue zone mode and then we have to talk about
blue zones a lot. That's why I have to go
for a late night walk now in one hundred and
fifty degree weather, because my wife has learned she wants
to be like the blue zone people. And I don't know.
I've told you this. I don't want to lift to
be one hundred. That's not a goal of mine. I'll
check out when nothing works anymore. So, he responds, as
(20:46):
you may remember, my grandmother. His grandmother just turned ninety six.
My grandmother is Okinawan, so she ate the famed Okinawan diet,
which is more bitter melon, no thanks, and purple sweet potatoes.
So my wife gets excited because apparently purple sweet potatoes
or the longevity trick instead of rice. Well, I love
my rice. Lots of soybeans and other soy products like me,
(21:07):
so I don't want to grow boobs. Green tea daily,
and lots of fish. My uncle loved to fish and
knew all the hotspots, so she ate whatever he caught.
She's also a beacon of moderation. Dond you want to
know what a beacon of moderation? She is his grandmother
ninety six years old. So he brought her. He bought
her a cake because he's been in Hawaii for the
(21:27):
last two weeks. He's back now. He brought her a
cake on her birthday ninety six years old, and he
and his wife and the two kids presented this cake
and they said, let us cut you a piece, and
she said, nope, I had a piece yesterday. You're ninety
six years old. You can eat cake all day. What
does Cunney Stagners, Hey eat cake for breakfast if you're
(21:48):
ninety six, you can eat cake anytime. Thank you for
the nice gesture. But nope, I had cake yesterday. If
having cake yesterday was a reason I couldn't have cake today,
I'd never have cake. So I said, yes, she's like
a priest or a good room. So he sends me
a picture of all these old people, and he says,
this picture is from two years ago. It's my grandmother
(22:09):
and her siblings. They are all in their nineties. I
think about it a lot because it just blows my
mind since this picture was taken the oldest of the
Sueyoshi kids, the third from the left, Auntie Janet, passed
she was like ninety six two years ago. So I said,
none at the wants this is a good segment. I like,
(22:29):
this is a good this will go down in the
history books. None of the wants to know if Okinawa
is considered a blue zone. She thinks it is. Also
she's read a lot about ikey guy life purpose. She's
fascinated by it. The concept of having a purpose for
your life gives you longevity and happiness. She's also interested
in how in the blue zones the people have friends
(22:53):
and family close by, and that's an important part of
their overall health. So according to Nontha, there's some documentary
about low zones. She keeps trying to get me to
read it, but I'm meant to watch it, but I won't.
And she's read these books on blue zones and these
people who live along supposedly happy life. But I'll be
honest with you, that does not sound happy to me.
That diet and all that. But anyway, and it's not
(23:15):
just that they live along life, it's that they're in
good health into a hundred and beyond. And one of
the things that apparently is very good for health is
to have friend groups. So people who are alone are
perceived as being lonely, which has health effects, much like
stress has a health effect. And I think loneliness is
(23:37):
in the category of stress, whereas people who have friends,
if they look forward to playing pickleball or magong or where,
they tend to live longer. That's probably why Jimmy Pappus
is so miserably doesn't have any friends. When you need.
Speaker 8 (23:53):
To escape from the every day escape of the Michael
Arry Show.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
So the call of the day today is Richard despite himself.
Richard was calling in to talk about David Kleingler and
a Bible based program out of Brenham that they're bringing ramon.
(24:36):
Did it hit you as a little bit odd that
a church in Conroe is going to be called Northwest?
That's weird, is it. Maybe they didn't have a map
when they named it. Maybe it's an old church, Maybe
they thought it was Northwest. Maybe they all maybe they
were settlers from Crosby and they were like, yeah, the
(25:00):
Lord led us northwest. We ended up here northwest. And
then everybody came from Houston and said, hey, we got
these cool things now called maps. We're not northwest, We're
do north northeast what we are? If Richard would call
back in I asked my show sponsors to send me
(25:23):
gift cards. Gringoz owes me some gift cards. Jonathan Kim,
please send those. I love to give away gift cards.
I really do. It's one of my great joys in
life is to give away gift cards. But I wanted
to give a gift card to Richard. There was a
place my mentor, Walters Ivy brought. He was on the
board of a place called Open Door Mission east of Houston.
(25:45):
They take in homeless people. It's a christ based program,
and every year they would have public people when I
was mayor pro tem at the time, and I didn't
think I talked about being mayor pro temp to offer room. Really,
I'm not gonna stop. I was just curious, Hey, how
long is that, Jerry Clower? A bit exactly five? Even, okay,
(26:05):
I gotta be quick, all right, And you would go
and wash the feet, and first they would they would
read from the Bible the story of Christ washing the
apostles feet. Humility is not something I'm good at, but
I respect and honor and applaud.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
By the way, if Richard will call back, Laboucherie sent
me some gift cards. I'm gonna send you a gift
card to get some amazing food that you take home
and just stuff in the oven and cook because you're
He did not say to give it to you because
you're our call of the day. But when you talk
about when you talk about being the person who sir,
I love that, and it reminds me of a Jerry
(26:46):
Clower story. Go ahead the end.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Dependent All Association of America had their meeting at a
big hotel down at Houston, Texas, and they got this PhD.
Feller from way up in the midway to come and
make a speech. Now, folks, he forevermore made a speech.
It's so inflamed and enthused all of those all folks,
(27:08):
that they called the executive committee together and they said.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Listen, that's hire that fun.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
And let's put him out on the road making this
same speech, just to wherever he can gather up a crowd.
Let him talk to him. And he did. Bought him
a big car and got him a showker with a
blue shirt suit. And this man just started traveling all
over the country making this speech. Well after they had
been doing this for about eight months, going down the
(27:37):
four lane highway, that shureffeur looked into rear view mirror
and he said, professor, what.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Said there ain't no fairness in this country? My good man?
Speaker 5 (27:46):
Why would you make a statement like that? He said,
I can make that cotton picking speech as good as
you can, and I'm badly making a living on what
y'all paying me, and you getting rich. He said, sir,
I want you to know that I got my BF degree.
He said, don't start all whar over. You've got all
them things. I ain't interested in them. I done heard
you make that speech once a day for eight months.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
I don't memorize it.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
I'm a better speech maker than you are, and I
make the cotton picking speech better than you can. Just
that simple, he said, I'm fixing to go to a
major university. And they ain't never seen me. They don't
need to know what I look like. You pull over
to the roadside park up here. We are about the
same size, and we'll trade clothes and I'll break you
(28:30):
from sucking eggs.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
We'll put you up there.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
On the stage and let you make the speech, and
I'll be the chauffeur and set out in the congregation
and I'll watch.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
You make a food out of yourself.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
That suits being fine.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Let's changed clothes. Now, y'all get this picture.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
They drive up to the big major university, the real
professor with the blue serge suit on driving the big car,
the schauffeur sitting on the back seat with a little
briefcase in his lap. Twenty two thousand people in the
field house, standing room only. The great PhD what graduated
(29:04):
from the Great School of Minds, was coming to speak,
and they introduced him. And just as he got up
to speak, there was the real Professor sitting on the
back road with a hard bell, chauffeur's cap in his lap,
peeping at him. Now y'all talking about making a speech?
Who he forevermore shelled down the corner.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
He shucked it right.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
On down to the cop They throld the books in
the iron, wallered on the floor, hollered give him a standing, ovation, screamed,
and they finally got order restored. And the president of
the school got up and said, well, we have about
ten minutes before the bell raidings. I wonder if y'all
(29:49):
would like to ask this gentleman any questions. Yes, would
you like to ask him any questions? Well, y'all have
seen the type.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
A fella got up in about.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
Halfway back, with big horn, rim glasses on a real
leg head, had books under each arm.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
He said, Professor, if one.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
