Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Apparently that heat index day the other day was really bad,
and I guess it was overcast. I'm not positive on that,
but apparently the sun was not suggesting that it was
hot and really humid and really bad. So people got
(00:51):
into trouble. I heard from a number of people that
they had some level of mild heat stroke, not that
they died, but that they got themselves into trouble, and
that a lot of dogs got into trouble because they
can't dissipate the heat away and you don't know they're
in trouble. So I told the story that nothing had
(01:11):
taken George around Memorial Park and then she couldn't get
her back, so a friend of ours had to come
and help get her in the truck and get her
back to back to life, back to reality, back to
the here and now. And it was it was bad,
it was scary. So anyway, my wife took her on
a real light. It's my wife's charge. Now we now
have apparently we have water stations around the house. That's
(01:35):
going to be interesting when I get home because I
have been on this kick that George is dehydrated. For
a while, my wife had to do some business travel
and I had George to myself, and my daily report
was George is dehydrated. I never realized how dehydrated she was,
so it's been my kick. So my wife said, all right,
she's dehydrated. This is a second episode. We're going to
(01:57):
put water stations around the house. So she had and
I'm going to come home to that anyway. Anyway, she
took her for a little walk today to get her
because she wants to build up to her being able
to walk for links again. And she sent me a
picture and George forgot her chew toy or a ball,
(02:18):
so she found a turtle. So she scooped up a turtle.
Course he's withdrawn into his shell. So she's walking around
with this turtle her mouth, you know, like she's screaming,
her mouth so wide open, and she's just as excited
as she can be with the turtle in her mouth.
So that's your George update. Let's get back to the calls.
But first a case before the Supreme Court a religious
(02:42):
charter school in Oklahoma. Oklahoma has not had a single
county vote Democrat in twenty years. Oklahoma is as conservative
a state as there is. It's the most conservative state.
Oklahoma wants religious charters rules. Why shouldn't they be able
to have religious charter schools? Well, the wacko left file
(03:08):
suit they don't want a religious chart You don't have
to go there, you heathens. It makes it all the
way Supreme Court. We've got a six three majority on
the Supreme Court. The case splits four four, so they're
not going to be able to have their religious charter school.
Your first question should be, Michael, howd it split four four?
(03:29):
There's nine justices, Oh, Amy Coney Barrett, Cony Barrett. She
recused herself. She decided she couldn't rule on this case.
So the religious charter school lost because of Amy Coney Barrett.
So tell me again how good am Amy Coney Barrett
(03:50):
is going to be on the Supreme Court. Tell me
again how the fact that she's opposed to abortion makes
her qualified to be on there. She's the worst Republican
appointed justice since Earl Warren. She's awful and all anybody
told me when I said, hey, guys, y'all are just
(04:10):
trying to put a woman on the court. She's she
makes me nervous. There's a lot of things about her.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
We need to do it.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
No, Michael, she's against abortion. We're going to be against abortion.
If the only thing you care about in the whole
world is being against abortion, you' land that would make
Pence for president, Because Mike Pence, when asked as president,
what would you do be against abortion? Okay? What would
be your foreign policy against abortion? Would you raise taxes
(04:39):
lower against abortion? And there's a certain segment of society
that has decided that's all that matters. We're a whole
nation who does not care anything about governing ourselves, anything
about personal liberties, anything about economic liberties, anything about anything.
Nothing else matters. Just that you're against abortion. You know,
(04:59):
we can walking ch you gum. At the same time,
we could be against abortion, but also do far more
than that. You do realize that, right?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Just just against abortion, just love. We're just against abortion.
And this is what we end up with. This is
what we end up with. Let's start with Jay Jeff
and I'm gonna call him Richard. Jay, you're up. What
is your ticket scalping story?
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Pisces me off. Pisces me off. That was a Trump
appointee that replaced that, the liberal nut job Ruth Bader
against Burg. We could have had a good we could
have had the next antonin Scalia, and we get stuck
with this watered down Amy Coney Barrett. Oh, all right,
(05:49):
who you got Ramon? Well, what's he doing? He's just
sitting there. Jeff, you're up because Jay doesn't want to talk.
You know what, He's got mute button on. He's probably
got a blue tube probably on the head, and brushed
his teeth. Jeff, you're up. Please do not blow this.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Michael, Michael, I am here, right here. I am one
of your favorite UH listeners. This is the best story
there ever. Is. My wife and I we were in
Boston about five years ago for a conference. We decided
to step out of the conference because it's boring, and
so we went walking down town and we went to
(06:32):
the Cheers Bar, and which is pretty appropriate because George went,
you know, Norm just passed away. So we went to
the Cheers Bar and as we're sitting there, you know,
drinking a beer, we look up and we see that
the Celtics are playing. My wife goes, hey, let's go
see if we can get inside the garden. You know,
(06:54):
you got to say it with that that boss and
that uh you know attitude. So so the uh you
guys should all. Yeah, it's just like four blocks away.
We walked on to the garden and as we were
walking up, I see this bar. It's called the Harp Bar.
So I told my wife, hey, follow me. I walk
(07:14):
on over and there's a big old black boys as
the bouncer there, and I walked up to him. I
gave him forty bucks. I said, listen, I know you
owe these streets. My wife would like to have, you know,
a couple of tickets. We don't care. Where can you
get us inside the garden? He says, no problem. We
walk inside the hop bar. We ordered a couple of beers.
(07:37):
About five ten minutes later, the skinny, little white dude
looked like a leperchawn on myth okay, he goes, hey, hey, hey,
I guess I think it's right discuss. I think it's
very great. How much ninety dollars? Ninety dollars. I'm like,
all right, ninety bucks, So I give them ninety bucks.
These are paper tickets. So we say goodbye. Oh was
(08:01):
that too long?
Speaker 5 (08:09):
With his finger on the pulse. The King of Team
continues on The Michael Berry Show, Stylings of Blue Magic.
We'll bring it back up, and he gets some course.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Solids just like stylistics level. Bring it up, Bring it up, Stan,
you don't remember that? Okay?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
All right? Who you got for me?
Speaker 6 (08:53):
Here? Uh?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Richard? Richard, you are on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir,
Good day, Michael.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
So I've got to you're talking about scalping situations. I
was talking about backstage encounters. I had an opportunity at club,
Hey Hay. Used to be on Lower Washington, Pat and
Pet's Bonton Club. Hey Hay, Wayne Tubs was playing there.
We're talking about eighty nine. I'm having a blast and
joining him, just ripping this place apart. And this little
old gal comes up to me. She's about four to seven,
about seventy five pounds. She said, son, you're passing a time?
(09:26):
Said yes, ma'am. She said, let me take you, introduce
you to my son. Well it turns out it was
Wayne's mother. She introduces me to Wayne, and Wayne says, man,
whatever you're on, I'll take two of them. Wayne and I,
from that day in eighty nine still have a close friendship.
I thought you might enjoy that since you were kind
of going Rechard, and I know that you and Wayne
have got a good relationship as well.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So yeah, what's funny is when I when I saw
the list of names and it said Richard, I said Rechard,
just to be funny. Where are you from?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Well, Michael, I'm a native of Ustonian, but my dad
was raised and born and raised in Bona and my
mother was actually born and raised in Westchester County, White Plains,
New York. So I've got a I'm a Cajun French,
the Irish coon ass from you? Okay, okay, but I've
got a Roberts. But you and I know each other.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
You know.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I'm part of Burg Hospitality. I'm the general manager at
Turner's Cut, the uh crown jewel of Berg Hospitality.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
The playground for the elite.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
And you are you still open? Well, hell yeah, we're open.
We're rocking and rolling every night over here in Autry Park,
are Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
So my wife and I we're driving along one day.
It was a weekend day, I think it was a Saturday,
could have been a Sunday set Monday, and so we
were we had stopped in to Brassrey nineteen. Our good
friend Charles Clark owns it, and we were looking at
We were just kind of driving around looking at restaurants.
(10:53):
There's a new good company, uh Takaria there. Tilman has
u in the old Nino's. He put La Grille and
so we were just looking around some things and I
saw y'all's development. It's all Tree Park. Is that what
you said it's called? So I said, correct, it's yeah.
So that the front bar whatever that bar is up
(11:15):
front is kind of a brunch type boozy, you know,
bougie boozy place. So we went up there. We walked
through there, kind of cool, and then we were walking
all around and then I didn't know where y'all were.
And I went back there to the back to where
y'all were, and it had locks on the door, and
I said, oh, well, the guy that runs this emails
(11:37):
me all the time. I guess they went out of business.
So I just assumed y'all. I tried to open it,
but it didn't open. I just assumed Joe went out
of business. I did not know that.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
No.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Matter of fact, Russell and Jonathan Kim were in recently,
So you know, you guys make plans. You and none
that can make plans to come on over and have
dinner with us.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah, I will flutly do that.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
I saw that.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
You'll what what did you say?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Everyone?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
You're sitting right here.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
You know what you talk.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Here's the deal. I'll be honest with a Richard Ramone
has a social anxiety and he hates me telling that,
but it's true. He's gotten a lot better, a lot better.
But Ramone will commit to doing something and then back
out at the last minute. And it's awkward for me
because people want us to come to things, and then
he chooses not to come, and they're more excited to
(12:26):
meet him than me. And so because I've been out
and about for years and he's kind of cloistered away.
So then I have to make up excuses like his
appendix sruptured, or his hemorrhoid came back, or just I
can't say, well, his social anxiety got him.
Speaker 6 (12:39):
You know.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I looked up tubes while we were talking, and the
photo they used on Wikipedia is a photo of him
with his accordion playing at the RCC And I know
it because I know the backdrop.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
Yeah, he was just a twenty nine to twenty a
few nights ago.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Twenty nine twenty I spoke to Kelly Burmester yesterday. He
is building out. He must have spent half million dollars.
He has put let me see if I can find it.
He is making that that's going to be one of
the premiere for what it is, kind of resort style
(13:19):
music venue festival. He's put, let me see if I
can find this, he told me when I spend I
think he's about half million dollars. He put three hundred
and sixty extra parking spots and twenty four RV spots
in front of that beautiful lake he's got, and he says,
hopefully we'll fill it up on the Randy Rogers Show
(13:40):
on June twelfth. So he's been rushing to finish. But
he's trying to do like multi day festivals and all
that sort of stuff. He has built out. I don't
know how long it's been since you've been out there,
but he has built out a beautiful He modeled it
on the RCC, which I consider a great compliment. But
he has spared no expense to build a beautiful, beautiful place. Hey, Ramon,
(14:02):
we promised Philippine National Anthem for a very special listener,
Take it away.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
Okay, Michael, Greek Cities in between.
Speaker 1 (14:45):

I'm proudly Louisiana. The Zyda Cajun king went into God,
I love him. You want a Grammy? Believe that?
Speaker 4 (15:04):
How?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
But that for best regional think of how many people
never want a Grammy? Toops want a Grammy. That's just
that's also come back.
Speaker 6 (15:14):
Up of.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Ten rand of thee.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
And me.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Toops is sixty six years old. And if I don't
at least make seventy, I got jipped, sad. If Tops
can make sixty six as much as he's wrecked his body,
I'm not saying I'm much better, but come on, man,
I should get seventy out of the deal. That's kind
(15:47):
of That's what Rush made. That's a good number. That's
a good number.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
It's cool.
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Come and you got.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Speaking of funerals, I was at a funeral and the
father got up to h to speak, and he offered
the eulogy, and he said, of his son, at least
(16:26):
he died doing what he loved, teasing grizzly bears. I
opened the oven door and found loads of tiny people
dancing to techno music. It was a micro ray speaking
(16:49):
of micronave ovens.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Well, me and Whytusa gott in that Cadillac yesterday and
we drove it down to a garage sale. Oh they
had some ignorant stuff up in there, like a deck
of playing cards, only have thirty cards in it, you know,
But it was cheap, so we bought it. Anyway, I
found me something good. I found a Mica nave of
and you know one of things, the cook real Fast.
(17:12):
I've always wanted one, but I've been scared of them
because they had so many buttons on that.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Anyway, I gave this woman five dollars for this thing.
Speaker 9 (17:19):
I told it at home, plugged it in and it
had all these pretty buttons on it be looking like
the Star tricks.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
So anyway, I said, well, I'm gonna just try some.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
I went and got me a potato, honey, because I
was hungry for a potato.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
I loved me a potato.
Speaker 9 (17:34):
And I put that thing in the oven and mashed
every button on that thing, and then I just you know,
went off. I was gonna wait forty five minutes and
then come back and see didn't work.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Well, no, sooner had.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
I sat down and went to looking at my store wrists. Honey,
I heard some popping and banging. I thought it was
a drive by.
Speaker 9 (17:51):
I instinctively hit the floor instinctively, But you know what
it happened That damn mica and nave oven had exploded
into a million pieces, Honey.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I was in that kitchen for.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
An hour and a half scraping up that potato, and
then I had to go make some grave funt and
by that time it was cold.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
A two year old Maryland boy has survived a fall
from the fifteenth one to five story of an apartment building.
This is clip number nineteen ramon of an apartment building
with only a broken arm suffer. Officials believe a brush
broke his fall and saved his life. Fox five DC
(18:34):
with the story.
Speaker 10 (18:35):
We're told the two year old boy is expected.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
To be okay.
Speaker 10 (18:40):
His juries are non life threatening after falling from a
balcony on the fifteenth floor. Now I'm told the childs
may have broken one of his arms or legs, but
again is expected to recovering. Following this incident that happened
here at the Enclave apartments in Silver Spring, right off
of Columbia Pike, So just before two fifteen this afternoon,
(19:00):
we're told fire and rescue crews rushed to this complex
after getting a call about a toddler falling from the
fifteenth floor. Residents who live in this neighborhood saying.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
It happened in the B building.
Speaker 10 (19:11):
When fire crews arrived, they found the boy who landed
in the bushes. Police of Montgomery County saying the bushes
broke his fall and ultimately saved his life.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Neighbors have many questions.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
They also can't believe that a child just survived this fall.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
I mean, it's horrible, and the balcony.
Speaker 10 (19:29):
Is probably at least like a good two feet tall,
So if it's a child that young, how did.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
He fall off?
Speaker 10 (19:39):
I mean, it's miraculous to hear that he felt when
I looked.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Up to the fifteenth floor.
Speaker 10 (19:44):
This is a high rise building with twentieth floors, and
the fifteenth floor is still very very high.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
So it's just, thank god, a miracle that the child survived.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
That's an incredible story, absolutely story. Alan Jackson has retired
from touring sixty six years old. He performed his final
tour show over the weekend in Milwaukee as part of
last call one more for the road tour. Alan Jackson
kicked off the tour one year after revealing his battle
(20:19):
with Charco Marie tooth disease, a degenerative nerve condition that
affects his motor skills. He was diagnosed back in twenty eleven.
He said, it's been a long, sweet ride. At starting
forty years ago. This September, my wife and I drove
to Nashville with an old U haul trailer and chased
the dream. It's been a crazy ride, that is true.
(20:40):
He's one of those guys. Nobody handed it to him.
He was working at I think a Dodge dealership. There's
a permanent exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame
about his rise. It's a great story. There's lots of
great stories, but Alan Jackson's is a great story. And
so we're going to take it to break with my
favorite Alan Jackson song, Don't make one to me because
(21:00):
it's a sappy one, because I happened to think it's
a beautiful, beautiful song. And some of you, this was
your dance at your wedding, and if it was, call
your girl or your man and say Michael Berry's playing
our song. That's for you.
Speaker 8 (21:16):
Remember when.

Speaker 11 (21:24):
Time stood still, love was all and you were the
first so was I made love and then you cried
remel love When Remember when thousand thousands all long cave
(21:57):

Speaker 11 (22:02):
It was hard to lived in line, live through hers.
Speaker 8 (22:08):
There was John, there was heard. Remember when remember when.

Speaker 5 (22:31):
This segment exclusively produced my Hawaiian Chad Nakanishi.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Aloha bro Ha The Michael Barry Show show.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yo, I'm down.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
If you don't know the story, not best farm. Pink.
Williams Junior's father died in his mid twenties in the
backseat of a car with a young guy driving him,
I believe on New Year's Day of appendicitis. And Hank
Williams Junior was I think probably three years old, and
(23:05):
his mother had him on the stage as fast as
she could to try to make a living. And he
was Hank's son, so everybody Hank Williams was the biggest star,
the biggest legend in country and western music, Western swing
and country. So she put Hank Junior on the stage
(23:28):
and he sang his daddy songs. It wasn't that cute,
and they made enough money to survive. And then as
he grew into his teens, he didn't want to sing
his daddy's songs anymore. He wanted to write and sing
his own. So there was a riff between him and
his mother, and by his early twenties he had broken
(23:50):
from her and was doing his own work and forging
his own path. And wherever he went people wanted to
play his daddy songs. He wanted to do his own.
By the time he was thirty, he was strung out
in a bad head space, physically wrecked, professionally distraught, and
(24:13):
so he grew up too fast and he just about
lost it all. He fell off the top of Ajax
Mountain in Montana and shattered his face. He wasn't supposed
to survive. As I was hanging loosen. Johnny Cash and
Whalen Jennings came and sat at his bedside, and they
(24:34):
nursed him back to health. He was in a deep
state of depression. He was heavily addicted to alcohol and drugs,
and he had no desire to go forward, and he
went off the road, went into hiding, couldn't be seen.
He was never seen without his sunglasses. After that, because
it hides the dysfunction or the devastation around his eyes
(25:01):
and how they turned out. It was very self conscious
about it, and so he didn't want anybody to see that,
and hasn't. He's kept himself covered up ever since then.
By the way, Corey Smith, whose music we play here,
has a crooked eye, and he will always wears sunglasses
for the same reason. Anyway, what I find amazing about
that is the beautiful art, like that song that came
(25:24):
out of Hank Williams's experience. Maybe it's the Southern Baptist
in me, maybe it's I don't know what it is,
but there is something about the redemptive nature of people
who get knocked down and use that experience. They didn't
(25:44):
want it, it happened, but somehow they crawl out of
that deep hole and find something to live for in
some reason to carry on. That has always been a
very inspiring thing for me. And that's one of the
things I love most about Hank Junior is how he
there's no way he should have been alive after seventy four,
(26:07):
and somehow, some way he did and he's still here today.
And he's my absolute favorite, my favorite living and I
love his story. I think it's incredible. Now I asked
Ramone to play I've been down by Hank Junior coming
back if he didn't have something he already wanted to do,
(26:27):
So why'd you ask? I said, I've just been thinking
about Hank Jr. And the Redemptive story. And he goes, well,
that's funny because there's a guy on hold who's got
a story about and I can't hear what Ramon's doing
in there. Who's got a story about Hank Jr. And
so we decided that was Kismet. So here we are.
What's his name? Marcus?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
You're up?
Speaker 12 (26:51):
Yeah, how's it going. I'm going to try to condense
this story down as quick as I can.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Okay, good nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 12 (26:58):
I'm a freshman at Teuch Lutheran and sagein the guy
across the hall from me is from Houston. I'm from Corpus.
He comes back one weekend, says you do anything next week?
And I said now, he says, okay, don't make plans.
So on a Friday afternoon, covert operation, we're coming back
to Houston because you can't let his parents know because
we're not going to go by and see him. They're
just we're just coming to town to I didn't know
(27:20):
at the time we would come to see Hank Jr.
And wasn't that the summit wasn't mcgilly's. They would just
had some bar here in Houston.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
I'd never been to it.
Speaker 12 (27:30):
So anyway, we walk in, get a table up, walks
this girl. My friend knows her. So we sit there
and you know, the concert goes on. We're listening and everything.
And on a side note, this is when I realized
how big NFL players were. The snake walks in. He's
a huge you do for a quarterback?
Speaker 4 (27:48):
Yep?
Speaker 2 (27:48):
And they were buddies and Alabama connection.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 12 (27:52):
And so anyway, finished, you know, we sit there for
the whole concert, watching the whole thing, and we're just
sitting there letting the crowd. Then out Hank Junior walks
by with that girl under one arm, another girl under
another arm. My friend and I look at each other.
We just we get up and we follow them. We
follow them out the back door to the bus, onto
(28:15):
the bus. They walk to the back of the bus
to the bedroom. You know, we just sit down, We
act like we're supposed to be here. We're on the
bus for I don't know, ten or fifteen minutes, just
talking to the band. Hey, we like your music, we
love the horns, we love this, we like that, you know,
just just shooting the breeze. And before you know it,
(28:37):
I guess his road manager whoever says, Okay, guys, y'all
gotta go.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
We got to hit the road.
Speaker 12 (28:42):
Well, Hank Junior and the two girls walk out the bus.
We walk out the bus behind them. The bus takes off,
We head back to Sagein.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
That is a fantastic story, fantastic Thank you for the call.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I used to spend a fair amount of time on
concert buses because they couldn't tell me no because they
were playing our place. And it is a whole culture.
The way the doors when you're sitting inside, the way
the hinge pops. They all have that same hinge, all
the prevosts, which they all drive, because you can put
(29:19):
a million miles on the way the door pops, the
way it the way it squeaks when it opens, the
sound of the door opening, and you waiting to see
who comes up those three or four steps to get
to the top, because you know, somebody's in there and
that whole that whole experience. You know, you're sitting there
and it's kind of an artificial experience, but it's it
(29:40):
can be a special experience. And so I hadn't done
that in five years because there was no RCC. So
Corey and Patt asked me to come join them in
Houston about three weeks ago, and so we're hanging out
on the bus and I hadn't been on the bus
and so long, and it was just the three of us,
and that they were talking they're gonna do another version
(30:03):
of songs we wish we'd written, and so they were
arguing over who over which songs they should do, and
so Corey said, well, let's let Michael decide, and Pat
made it. It was so much fun. Did you thump
about being That's a great story, dude,
It's that time time time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Apparently that heat index day the other day was really bad,
and I guess it was overcast. I'm not positive on that,
but apparently the sun was not suggesting that it was
hot and really humid and really bad. So people got
(00:51):
into trouble. I heard from a number of people that
they had some level of mild heat stroke, not that
they died, but that they got themselves into trouble, and
that a lot of dogs got into trouble because they
can't dissipate the heat away and you don't know they're
in trouble. So I told the story that nothing had
(01:11):
taken George around Memorial Park and then she couldn't get
her back, so a friend of ours had to come
and help get her in the truck and get her
back to back to life, back to reality, back to
the here and now. And it was it was bad,
it was scary. So anyway, my wife took her on
a real light. It's my wife's charge. Now we now
have apparently we have water stations around the house. That's
(01:35):
going to be interesting when I get home because I
have been on this kick that George is dehydrated. For
a while, my wife had to do some business travel
and I had George to myself, and my daily report
was George is dehydrated. I never realized how dehydrated she was,
so it's been my kick. So my wife said, all right,
she's dehydrated. This is a second episode. We're going to
(01:57):
put water stations around the house. So she had and
I'm going to come home to that anyway. Anyway, she
took her for a little walk today to get her
because she wants to build up to her being able
to walk for links again. And she sent me a
picture and George forgot her chew toy or a ball,
(02:18):
so she found a turtle. So she scooped up a turtle.
Course he's withdrawn into his shell. So she's walking around
with this turtle her mouth, you know, like she's screaming,
her mouth so wide open, and she's just as excited
as she can be with the turtle in her mouth.
So that's your George update. Let's get back to the calls.
But first a case before the Supreme Court a religious
(02:42):
charter school in Oklahoma. Oklahoma has not had a single
county vote Democrat in twenty years. Oklahoma is as conservative
a state as there is. It's the most conservative state.
Oklahoma wants religious charters rules. Why shouldn't they be able
to have religious charter schools? Well, the wacko left file
(03:08):
suit they don't want a religious chart You don't have
to go there, you heathens. It makes it all the
way Supreme Court. We've got a six three majority on
the Supreme Court. The case splits four four, so they're
not going to be able to have their religious charter school.
Your first question should be, Michael, howd it split four four?
(03:29):
There's nine justices, Oh, Amy Coney Barrett, Cony Barrett. She
recused herself. She decided she couldn't rule on this case.
So the religious charter school lost because of Amy Coney Barrett.
So tell me again how good am Amy Coney Barrett
(03:50):
is going to be on the Supreme Court. Tell me
again how the fact that she's opposed to abortion makes
her qualified to be on there. She's the worst Republican
appointed justice since Earl Warren. She's awful and all anybody
told me when I said, hey, guys, y'all are just
(04:10):
trying to put a woman on the court. She's she
makes me nervous. There's a lot of things about her.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
We need to do it.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
No, Michael, she's against abortion. We're going to be against abortion.
If the only thing you care about in the whole
world is being against abortion, you' land that would make
Pence for president, Because Mike Pence, when asked as president,
what would you do be against abortion? Okay? What would
be your foreign policy against abortion? Would you raise taxes
(04:39):
lower against abortion? And there's a certain segment of society
that has decided that's all that matters. We're a whole
nation who does not care anything about governing ourselves, anything
about personal liberties, anything about economic liberties, anything about anything.
Nothing else matters. Just that you're against abortion. You know,
(04:59):
we can walking ch you gum. At the same time,
we could be against abortion, but also do far more
than that. You do realize that, right?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Just just against abortion, just love. We're just against abortion.
And this is what we end up with. This is
what we end up with. Let's start with Jay Jeff
and I'm gonna call him Richard. Jay, you're up. What
is your ticket scalping story?
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Pisces me off. Pisces me off. That was a Trump
appointee that replaced that, the liberal nut job Ruth Bader
against Burg. We could have had a good we could
have had the next antonin Scalia, and we get stuck
with this watered down Amy Coney Barrett. Oh, all right,
(05:49):
who you got Ramon? Well, what's he doing? He's just
sitting there. Jeff, you're up because Jay doesn't want to talk.
You know what, He's got mute button on. He's probably
got a blue tube probably on the head, and brushed
his teeth. Jeff, you're up. Please do not blow this.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Michael, Michael, I am here, right here. I am one
of your favorite UH listeners. This is the best story
there ever. Is. My wife and I we were in
Boston about five years ago for a conference. We decided
to step out of the conference because it's boring, and
so we went walking down town and we went to
(06:32):
the Cheers Bar, and which is pretty appropriate because George went,
you know, Norm just passed away. So we went to
the Cheers Bar and as we're sitting there, you know,
drinking a beer, we look up and we see that
the Celtics are playing. My wife goes, hey, let's go
see if we can get inside the garden. You know,
(06:54):
you got to say it with that that boss and
that uh you know attitude. So so the uh you
guys should all. Yeah, it's just like four blocks away.
We walked on to the garden and as we were
walking up, I see this bar. It's called the Harp Bar.
So I told my wife, hey, follow me. I walk
(07:14):
on over and there's a big old black boys as
the bouncer there, and I walked up to him. I
gave him forty bucks. I said, listen, I know you
owe these streets. My wife would like to have, you know,
a couple of tickets. We don't care. Where can you
get us inside the garden? He says, no problem. We
walk inside the hop bar. We ordered a couple of beers.
(07:37):
About five ten minutes later, the skinny, little white dude
looked like a leperchawn on myth okay, he goes, hey, hey, hey,
I guess I think it's right discuss. I think it's
very great. How much ninety dollars? Ninety dollars. I'm like,
all right, ninety bucks, So I give them ninety bucks.
These are paper tickets. So we say goodbye. Oh was
(08:01):
that too long?
Speaker 5 (08:09):
With his finger on the pulse. The King of Team
continues on The Michael Berry Show, Stylings of Blue Magic.
We'll bring it back up, and he gets some course.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Solids just like stylistics level. Bring it up, Bring it up, Stan,
you don't remember that? Okay?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
All right? Who you got for me?
Speaker 6 (08:53):
Here? Uh?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Richard? Richard, you are on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir,
Good day, Michael.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
So I've got to you're talking about scalping situations. I
was talking about backstage encounters. I had an opportunity at club,
Hey Hay. Used to be on Lower Washington, Pat and
Pet's Bonton Club. Hey Hay, Wayne Tubs was playing there.
We're talking about eighty nine. I'm having a blast and
joining him, just ripping this place apart. And this little
old gal comes up to me. She's about four to seven,
about seventy five pounds. She said, son, you're passing a time?
(09:26):
Said yes, ma'am. She said, let me take you, introduce
you to my son. Well it turns out it was
Wayne's mother. She introduces me to Wayne, and Wayne says, man,
whatever you're on, I'll take two of them. Wayne and I,
from that day in eighty nine still have a close friendship.
I thought you might enjoy that since you were kind
of going Rechard, and I know that you and Wayne
have got a good relationship as well.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So yeah, what's funny is when I when I saw
the list of names and it said Richard, I said Rechard,
just to be funny. Where are you from?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Well, Michael, I'm a native of Ustonian, but my dad
was raised and born and raised in Bona and my
mother was actually born and raised in Westchester County, White Plains,
New York. So I've got a I'm a Cajun French,
the Irish coon ass from you? Okay, okay, but I've
got a Roberts. But you and I know each other.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
You know.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I'm part of Burg Hospitality. I'm the general manager at
Turner's Cut, the uh crown jewel of Berg Hospitality.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
The playground for the elite.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
And you are you still open? Well, hell yeah, we're open.
We're rocking and rolling every night over here in Autry Park,
are Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
So my wife and I we're driving along one day.
It was a weekend day, I think it was a Saturday,
could have been a Sunday set Monday, and so we
were we had stopped in to Brassrey nineteen. Our good
friend Charles Clark owns it, and we were looking at
We were just kind of driving around looking at restaurants.
(10:53):
There's a new good company, uh Takaria there. Tilman has
u in the old Nino's. He put La Grille and
so we were just looking around some things and I
saw y'all's development. It's all Tree Park. Is that what
you said it's called? So I said, correct, it's yeah.
So that the front bar whatever that bar is up
(11:15):
front is kind of a brunch type boozy, you know,
bougie boozy place. So we went up there. We walked
through there, kind of cool, and then we were walking
all around and then I didn't know where y'all were.
And I went back there to the back to where
y'all were, and it had locks on the door, and
I said, oh, well, the guy that runs this emails
(11:37):
me all the time. I guess they went out of business.
So I just assumed y'all. I tried to open it,
but it didn't open. I just assumed Joe went out
of business. I did not know that.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
No.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Matter of fact, Russell and Jonathan Kim were in recently,
So you know, you guys make plans. You and none
that can make plans to come on over and have
dinner with us.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah, I will flutly do that.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
I saw that.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
You'll what what did you say?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Everyone?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
You're sitting right here.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
You know what you talk.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Here's the deal. I'll be honest with a Richard Ramone
has a social anxiety and he hates me telling that,
but it's true. He's gotten a lot better, a lot better.
But Ramone will commit to doing something and then back
out at the last minute. And it's awkward for me
because people want us to come to things, and then
he chooses not to come, and they're more excited to
(12:26):
meet him than me. And so because I've been out
and about for years and he's kind of cloistered away.
So then I have to make up excuses like his
appendix sruptured, or his hemorrhoid came back, or just I
can't say, well, his social anxiety got him.
Speaker 6 (12:39):
You know.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I looked up tubes while we were talking, and the
photo they used on Wikipedia is a photo of him
with his accordion playing at the RCC And I know
it because I know the backdrop.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
Yeah, he was just a twenty nine to twenty a
few nights ago.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Twenty nine twenty I spoke to Kelly Burmester yesterday. He
is building out. He must have spent half million dollars.
He has put let me see if I can find it.
He is making that that's going to be one of
the premiere for what it is, kind of resort style
(13:19):
music venue festival. He's put, let me see if I
can find this, he told me when I spend I
think he's about half million dollars. He put three hundred
and sixty extra parking spots and twenty four RV spots
in front of that beautiful lake he's got, and he says,
hopefully we'll fill it up on the Randy Rogers Show
(13:40):
on June twelfth. So he's been rushing to finish. But
he's trying to do like multi day festivals and all
that sort of stuff. He has built out. I don't
know how long it's been since you've been out there,
but he has built out a beautiful He modeled it
on the RCC, which I consider a great compliment. But
he has spared no expense to build a beautiful, beautiful place. Hey, Ramon,
(14:02):
we promised Philippine National Anthem for a very special listener,
Take it away.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
Okay, Michael, Greek Cities in between.
Speaker 1 (14:45):

I'm proudly Louisiana. The Zyda Cajun king went into God,
I love him. You want a Grammy? Believe that?
Speaker 4 (15:04):
How?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
But that for best regional think of how many people
never want a Grammy? Toops want a Grammy. That's just
that's also come back.

Ten rand of thee.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
And me.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Toops is sixty six years old. And if I don't
at least make seventy, I got jipped, sad. If Tops
can make sixty six as much as he's wrecked his body,
I'm not saying I'm much better, but come on, man,
I should get seventy out of the deal. That's kind
(15:47):
of That's what Rush made. That's a good number. That's
a good number.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
It's cool.
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Come and you got.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Speaking of funerals, I was at a funeral and the
father got up to h to speak, and he offered
the eulogy, and he said, of his son, at least
(16:26):
he died doing what he loved, teasing grizzly bears. I
opened the oven door and found loads of tiny people
dancing to techno music. It was a micro ray speaking
(16:49):
of micronave ovens.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Well, me and Whytusa gott in that Cadillac yesterday and
we drove it down to a garage sale. Oh they
had some ignorant stuff up in there, like a deck
of playing cards, only have thirty cards in it, you know,
But it was cheap, so we bought it. Anyway, I
found me something good. I found a Mica nave of
and you know one of things, the cook real Fast.
(17:12):
I've always wanted one, but I've been scared of them
because they had so many buttons on that.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Anyway, I gave this woman five dollars for this thing.
Speaker 9 (17:19):
I told it at home, plugged it in and it
had all these pretty buttons on it be looking like
the Star tricks.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
So anyway, I said, well, I'm gonna just try some.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
I went and got me a potato, honey, because I
was hungry for a potato.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
I loved me a potato.
Speaker 9 (17:34):
And I put that thing in the oven and mashed
every button on that thing, and then I just you know,
went off. I was gonna wait forty five minutes and
then come back and see didn't work.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Well, no, sooner had.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
I sat down and went to looking at my store wrists. Honey,
I heard some popping and banging. I thought it was
a drive by.
Speaker 9 (17:51):
I instinctively hit the floor instinctively, But you know what
it happened That damn mica and nave oven had exploded
into a million pieces, Honey.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I was in that kitchen for.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
An hour and a half scraping up that potato, and
then I had to go make some grave funt and
by that time it was cold.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
A two year old Maryland boy has survived a fall
from the fifteenth one to five story of an apartment building.
This is clip number nineteen ramon of an apartment building
with only a broken arm suffer. Officials believe a brush
broke his fall and saved his life. Fox five DC
(18:34):
with the story.
Speaker 10 (18:35):
We're told the two year old boy is expected.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
To be okay.
Speaker 10 (18:40):
His juries are non life threatening after falling from a
balcony on the fifteenth floor. Now I'm told the childs
may have broken one of his arms or legs, but
again is expected to recovering. Following this incident that happened
here at the Enclave apartments in Silver Spring, right off
of Columbia Pike, So just before two fifteen this afternoon,
(19:00):
we're told fire and rescue crews rushed to this complex
after getting a call about a toddler falling from the
fifteenth floor. Residents who live in this neighborhood saying.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
It happened in the B building.
Speaker 10 (19:11):
When fire crews arrived, they found the boy who landed
in the bushes. Police of Montgomery County saying the bushes
broke his fall and ultimately saved his life.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Neighbors have many questions.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
They also can't believe that a child just survived this fall.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
I mean, it's horrible, and the balcony.
Speaker 10 (19:29):
Is probably at least like a good two feet tall,
So if it's a child that young, how did.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
He fall off?
Speaker 10 (19:39):
I mean, it's miraculous to hear that he felt when
I looked.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Up to the fifteenth floor.
Speaker 10 (19:44):
This is a high rise building with twentieth floors, and
the fifteenth floor is still very very high.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
So it's just, thank god, a miracle that the child survived.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
That's an incredible story, absolutely story. Alan Jackson has retired
from touring sixty six years old. He performed his final
tour show over the weekend in Milwaukee as part of
last call one more for the road tour. Alan Jackson
kicked off the tour one year after revealing his battle
(20:19):
with Charco Marie tooth disease, a degenerative nerve condition that
affects his motor skills. He was diagnosed back in twenty eleven.
He said, it's been a long, sweet ride. At starting
forty years ago. This September, my wife and I drove
to Nashville with an old U haul trailer and chased
the dream. It's been a crazy ride, that is true.
(20:40):
He's one of those guys. Nobody handed it to him.
He was working at I think a Dodge dealership. There's
a permanent exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame
about his rise. It's a great story. There's lots of
great stories, but Alan Jackson's is a great story. And
so we're going to take it to break with my
favorite Alan Jackson song, Don't make one to me because
(21:00):
it's a sappy one, because I happened to think it's
a beautiful, beautiful song. And some of you, this was
your dance at your wedding, and if it was, call
your girl or your man and say Michael Berry's playing
our song. That's for you.
Speaker 8 (21:16):
Remember when.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
I was young, so.
Speaker 11 (21:24):
Time stood still, love was all and you were the
first so was I made love and then you cried
remel love When Remember when thousand thousands all long cave
(21:57):

Speaker 11 (22:02):
It was hard to lived in line, live through hers.
Speaker 8 (22:08):
There was John, there was heard. Remember when remember when.

Oles died?

Speaker 3 (22:30):
Who's changed?
Speaker 5 (22:31):
This segment exclusively produced my Hawaiian Chad Nakanishi.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Aloha bro Ha The Michael Barry Show show.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yo, I'm down.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
If you don't know the story, not best farm. Pink.
Williams Junior's father died in his mid twenties in the
backseat of a car with a young guy driving him,
I believe on New Year's Day of appendicitis. And Hank
Williams Junior was I think probably three years old, and
(23:05):
his mother had him on the stage as fast as
she could to try to make a living. And he
was Hank's son, so everybody Hank Williams was the biggest star,
the biggest legend in country and western music, Western swing
and country. So she put Hank Junior on the stage
(23:28):
and he sang his daddy songs. It wasn't that cute,
and they made enough money to survive. And then as
he grew into his teens, he didn't want to sing
his daddy's songs anymore. He wanted to write and sing
his own. So there was a riff between him and
his mother, and by his early twenties he had broken
(23:50):
from her and was doing his own work and forging
his own path. And wherever he went people wanted to
play his daddy songs. He wanted to do his own.
By the time he was thirty, he was strung out
in a bad head space, physically wrecked, professionally distraught, and
(24:13):
so he grew up too fast and he just about
lost it all. He fell off the top of Ajax
Mountain in Montana and shattered his face. He wasn't supposed
to survive. As I was hanging loosen. Johnny Cash and
Whalen Jennings came and sat at his bedside, and they
(24:34):
nursed him back to health. He was in a deep
state of depression. He was heavily addicted to alcohol and drugs,
and he had no desire to go forward, and he
went off the road, went into hiding, couldn't be seen.
He was never seen without his sunglasses. After that, because
it hides the dysfunction or the devastation around his eyes
(25:01):
and how they turned out. It was very self conscious
about it, and so he didn't want anybody to see that,
and hasn't. He's kept himself covered up ever since then.
By the way, Corey Smith, whose music we play here,
has a crooked eye, and he will always wears sunglasses
for the same reason. Anyway, what I find amazing about
that is the beautiful art, like that song that came
(25:24):
out of Hank Williams's experience. Maybe it's the Southern Baptist
in me, maybe it's I don't know what it is,
but there is something about the redemptive nature of people
who get knocked down and use that experience. They didn't
(25:44):
want it, it happened, but somehow they crawl out of
that deep hole and find something to live for in
some reason to carry on. That has always been a
very inspiring thing for me. And that's one of the
things I love most about Hank Junior is how he
there's no way he should have been alive after seventy four,
(26:07):
and somehow, some way he did and he's still here today.
And he's my absolute favorite, my favorite living and I
love his story. I think it's incredible. Now I asked
Ramone to play I've been down by Hank Junior coming
back if he didn't have something he already wanted to do,
(26:27):
So why'd you ask? I said, I've just been thinking
about Hank Jr. And the Redemptive story. And he goes, well,
that's funny because there's a guy on hold who's got
a story about and I can't hear what Ramon's doing
in there. Who's got a story about Hank Jr. And
so we decided that was Kismet. So here we are.
What's his name? Marcus?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
You're up?
Speaker 12 (26:51):
Yeah, how's it going. I'm going to try to condense
this story down as quick as I can.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Okay, good nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 12 (26:58):
I'm a freshman at Teuch Lutheran and sagein the guy
across the hall from me is from Houston. I'm from Corpus.
He comes back one weekend, says you do anything next week?
And I said now, he says, okay, don't make plans.
So on a Friday afternoon, covert operation, we're coming back
to Houston because you can't let his parents know because
we're not going to go by and see him. They're
just we're just coming to town to I didn't know
(27:20):
at the time we would come to see Hank Jr.
And wasn't that the summit wasn't mcgilly's. They would just
had some bar here in Houston.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
I'd never been to it.
Speaker 12 (27:30):
So anyway, we walk in, get a table up, walks
this girl. My friend knows her. So we sit there
and you know, the concert goes on. We're listening and everything.
And on a side note, this is when I realized
how big NFL players were. The snake walks in. He's
a huge you do for a quarterback?
Speaker 4 (27:48):
Yep?
Speaker 2 (27:48):
And they were buddies and Alabama connection.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 12 (27:52):
And so anyway, finished, you know, we sit there for
the whole concert, watching the whole thing, and we're just
sitting there letting the crowd. Then out Hank Junior walks
by with that girl under one arm, another girl under
another arm. My friend and I look at each other.
We just we get up and we follow them. We
follow them out the back door to the bus, onto
(28:15):
the bus. They walk to the back of the bus
to the bedroom. You know, we just sit down, We
act like we're supposed to be here. We're on the
bus for I don't know, ten or fifteen minutes, just
talking to the band. Hey, we like your music, we
love the horns, we love this, we like that, you know,
just just shooting the breeze. And before you know it,
(28:37):
I guess his road manager whoever says, Okay, guys, y'all
gotta go.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
We got to hit the road.
Speaker 12 (28:42):
Well, Hank Junior and the two girls walk out the bus.
We walk out the bus behind them. The bus takes off,
We head back to Sagein.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
That is a fantastic story, fantastic Thank you for the call.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I used to spend a fair amount of time on
concert buses because they couldn't tell me no because they
were playing our place. And it is a whole culture.
The way the doors when you're sitting inside, the way
the hinge pops. They all have that same hinge, all
the prevosts, which they all drive, because you can put
(29:19):
a million miles on the way the door pops, the
way it the way it squeaks when it opens, the
sound of the door opening, and you waiting to see
who comes up those three or four steps to get
to the top, because you know, somebody's in there and
that whole that whole experience. You know, you're sitting there
and it's kind of an artificial experience, but it's it
(29:40):
can be a special experience. And so I hadn't done
that in five years because there was no RCC. So
Corey and Patt asked me to come join them in
Houston about three weeks ago, and so we're hanging out
on the bus and I hadn't been on the bus
and so long, and it was just the three of us,
and that they were talking they're gonna do another version
(30:03):
of songs we wish we'd written, and so they were
arguing over who over which songs they should do, and
so Corey said, well, let's let Michael decide, and Pat
made it. It was so much fun. Did you thump
about being That's a great story, dude,
