He pulled up.
Speaker 5 (00:06):
He said, you walk out with that chain, and you
walked in the car and say you.

around your head.

I wonder what is your message to Hezbollah? And it's

I am serious, and don't call me Chirley.

of guy you like to smacking.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Ass hearing me.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
We're gonna have a fight today after school, three o'clock in.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
The parking lot.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Press always asked me, don't I wish I were debating him?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
No, I wish you're in high school. I could take
him behind the gym.
Speaker 7 (00:54):
You gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Why you right, well, mister darthy man.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Nine staples to your DOSSI have three one broken balls,
two bullet womans, nine punctus of or stainless steel screws.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
That's an estimate. Of course, I'll give you a low walk.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
No, thank you do you enjoy pain.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Pain don't hurt.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Most of my patients would disagree with you. Okay, you
always carry your medical records around with you.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Safe time.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
It's not about being a tough guy.
Speaker 8 (01:37):
You like that old man.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
You want a piece of me.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I don't want a piece of you. I want the
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
You can see that I'm mentally incompetent because I can't.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Walk and I can read the hell out of both
of them. Fight all right. I'll take your calls onmost anything,
but particularly this issue of the THCHC. I would like
(02:13):
to hear from you whether you are for or against it,
with your thoughts on the matter. Seven one three nine
nine one thousand, seven one three nine nine nine one
thousand as those calls come in. Today, June second, for
those who follow the state legislature, is a big day.
It is known as seen a die, which means literally
(02:33):
without a day, meaning that there is not a day
after today for the legislature, unless, of course, there is
a special session which the governor has the power to call,
which means that there is no session for the House
and the Senate for five hundred and eighty nine days.
(02:57):
The legislature will reconvene of course again, unless there is
a special session called by the governor. The legislature will
reconvene on January twelfth, twenty twenty seven. As you know,
the Texas Legislature is not a full time legislature the
way Congress is. It is a biennial legislature, which means
(03:19):
they gather for one hundred and fifty days every two years.
So after today, all the things that you were promised
that weren't done will be excused because they ran out
of time. It's ran out of time. You can't say
we didn't have the numbers, because we have the House
and we have the Senate. We have the Lieutenant governor,
(03:41):
we have the governor, we have the state Supreme Court,
we have every elected statewide official, we have the Attorney General.
So why didn't the House and the Senate get the
things done? Most of the problems were in the House.
Most of the problems are in the House. So the
weekend final approval was given through reconciliation to the state budget.
(04:06):
It is the largest in Texas history, spending over three
hundred and thirty eight billion dollars. It will take effect
on September first and run through August thirty, first of
twenty twenty seven. Brandon Walton's who writes for Texas Scorecard,
(04:26):
which I encourage you to read. It's a very very
good report on what's going on in Austin. It's the
easiest way to find out what's going on in Austin.
It's Michael Quinnsulivan, Brandon Walton's. They do a fantastic job.
Fantastic job. He notes that this budget is an eight
point three percent increase over the last by and M
and a staggering forty three percent increase since the twenty
(04:51):
twenty two to twenty twenty three budget. So what did
Republicans do in Austin after you supported? Now? Will any
of them come home and say, Yeah, we just figured
we needed to spend a bunch more money. They will
not say that. They will say we ran out of time.
(05:13):
You didn't run out of time. You found the time
to spend it. You didn't find the time to cut it.
That's just it. They entered the session with a twenty
four billion dollar surplus. Only six and a half billion
of that surplus is being used for new property tax relief,
which is nothing all. While property taxes have risen thirteen
(05:37):
billion dollars since the last buy and M alone. That's
twenty one point six percent. If it feels like your
property tax bill is going through the roof, it is.
If it feels like the Republicans in Austin aren't doing
anything about it, they're not. That's exactly right. Now. They
(05:58):
got a big, big education bill because the rural the
rural Republicans and the urban Democrats have the coalition that
dominates on this issue. And that coalition is it's like
the neo cons the more money for public schools, the better.
It's good for your kids, except it's not. It's not
(06:22):
for your kids. It's for administrators and engineers and construction companies.
The education doesn't get better. In fact, you could plot it.
It's an X on the chart, quality of performance by
kids going down, expenditures on public education going up. They're
(06:42):
less safe and less productive than they've ever been. So
we got a school vouchers bill. We were promised a
school voucher bill, remember school vouchers. But the only way
they did that is to create a whole new funding pool.
We couldn't take it from public schools. Lord, No, the
(07:04):
children and the teachers so they just spent more eight
point five billion dollar school finance bill includes teacher pay raises,
more school funding, six hundred and seventy seven million for
early learning programs. It goes on and on, all right,
(07:25):
your thoughts on the dope coming up.
Speaker 9 (07:27):
With twenty five package and you get it all fiberglass
hood with air grabbing scoops with.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
The Michael Berry fucking hood.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Pins, shoosmobile, escape from the ordinary before we get to
the calls, fellow named Alan wrote, and I do realize
I guess that I get passionate when i'm when i'm
I love I love the clash of ideas very exciting
(07:55):
to me. I did debate all the way back into
my first year of high school, and I lived for it.
I love it and I love to I don't love
to argue. There's a difference between arguing, you know, who
should take out the trashes and argument. It's not a debate.
I love the clash of ideas, and it doesn't matter
(08:16):
who wins. It is the process that I find very exciting.
Just as I enjoy watching a sporting event, it doesn't
really matter to me which team wins. I enjoy the sport,
the performance of the sport, so Allen writes, So don't
take it personally. I don't dislike Dan Patrick, as I said,
I think he's been a very good lieutenant governor. He's
(08:36):
very popular. I think this is a bonehead move, and
I think it's driven for all the wrong reasons, as
has been suggested Alan Wrights. I took my ten year
old daughter to a movie last night and on the
menu they had THHC infused drinks. No thank you. I
don't want high school employees with access to THCHC and
(08:58):
the authority to put them in that might get into
my daughter's cup. I don't want it advertised to her.
Things were much better when all of this stuff was
still illegal. Well, by that measure, we should have prohibition.
Do you know the problems prohibition calls for this country.
You know when I tell people, well, then let's just
(09:18):
have problem, let's outlaw at all, they go, I be
for that, or they'll say, well, you know, yeah, but
alcohol is legal, so since it's legal, it should stay legal.
That's not a principal argument. If your concern is the kids,
I'm going to tell you because I've just had a
kid graduate a year ago, and I've got another one
who's going to be as a rising senior. I'm going
(09:39):
to tell you what happens at parties. A lot of
kids drink a lot. Almost no kids vape marijuana, almost none.
You don't why they drink because they steal it from
their parents. Yeah, because they steal it from their parents.
So the concern that, well, we don't want to kids
(10:00):
just for the kids. You've got these stories just for
the kids. Are you aware that there is alcohol everywhere
all the time. It's not a principal argument. Alcohol kills
more people in more ways than any of this stuff
could ever hope to trust me on that, And I'm
not trying to make alcohol illegal, are you? It doesn't
(10:21):
make any sense to me. It just doesn't make any sense. Kevin,
you're on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (10:28):
I love people that are ill informed, like that person
at the movies.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh your child.
Speaker 8 (10:36):
This whole argument about the children and saving the children,
and it's so I'm just so over it. It was cigarettes,
you know, it was puffing cans of air. You know,
we got to save the children, save the children. It's nonsense.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
What dan Patrick did the other day though, is he
got up there and just flat out lied repeatedly, not
one or two times, over and over and over, and
then doubled down on his lives. How any hell can
a politician do that and have absolutely nothing happened to him.
I mean, it's once again, there's a difference between an
(11:15):
opinion and stating facts. He was getting up there stating
saying that kids are dying because of this. There has
not been one kid died from a damn gummy not one.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Well, first of all, I don't know that that is true.
For this reason. The synthetic stuff, the synthetic stuff is
not what the real stuff is. The synthetic stuff is
no boy, no, not good. Now should it be made
(11:51):
illegal when and you know why people do the synthetic
stuff because the real stuff is illegal. All that delta A,
all that stuff. You know why that's out there because
when you make stuff illegal that people want, sex, alcohol, gambling,
they still do it, right, they still do it. But
(12:16):
now what they do is they find ways to do
it that are illegal. So you drive things underground. You
know what happens when you drive things underground, You make
them the domain of bad actors. See, the worst thing
for the cartels was making marijuana illegal in places like
California and Colorado. They nobody wanted their dope because now
(12:42):
you had you had dope that was clean, that was
that was made in a safe environment that you didn't
have to worry the person selling it to you was
going to shoot you. When that happened, that changed the
whole game. Change the whole game the cartels, That whole
(13:04):
division of their far flung enterprise was done, and so
they had to find new places to apply their trade
and the synthetic marijuana. There are some downsays. I know
a lot of people, and I didn't until I started
talking about this, but I've heard from them. I know
(13:26):
a lot of people who are friends of mine, normal guys,
successful guys who drink a marijuana drink that they get
at specs or wherever they get. They get their liquor
every night to go to bed. The going to sleep
process is such a big issue, in such a health
(13:47):
related issue, and nobody wants to talk about it. But
a lot of people struggle to go to sleep and
they need sleep. And a lot of people struggle with
pain and they have pain, and how we deal with that.
It strikes me we should be a bit more mature.
How about that, Jason, you're up? Go ahead?
Speaker 9 (14:06):
Yes, sir, I know I'm biased because I'm a retired
Harrison County deputy. But in twenty ten, when I was
still on patrol, I went to a high school graduation
party ten Review High School. A little girl had to
get life flight because she smoked cush because it was legal,
and she ended up almost dying. And I told those kids,
You're not supposed to say this, but you know.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Smoke weed.
Speaker 9 (14:25):
You might get a couple of days or weeks in jail,
but you're not going to die. But that I saw
that girl get life flighted from smoking cush just because
it was legal. But again, like I said, I'm biased
from what I did for twenty years, but I'm all
against it personally.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Well, the problem is, I think the whole overall approach
is really messed up. I'm reminded of the line by Seneca.
Laws do not persuade just because they threaten. Let's as
do we have time? All right, let's make a quick one.
(15:00):
Let's go to Teresa. Teresa, go ahead, Teresa, you're up.
Oh she dropped. Jason, you're up, go ahead. Oh, Jason
was already up.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Frank you go ahead, which Frank number two, Okay, that's me.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Personally. I'm against it. I think it's really a stupid
move on the Republican's part.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
All right, hold on second, Frank number two, number two,
you'll be number one, number two on his jersey, number
one in your heart coming up.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And Michael Bay.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
All right, let's go back to Frank number two. Frank
number two, you were on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir,
so you can start over, yes.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Sir, okay, Yeah, I'm against this. I think it's a
pretty dumb move. We're solving a problem that doesn't exist,
and certainly nobody asked for. The Republicans failed on property taxes,
and we're feeding more money to an inep school system.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
And I just can't.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Believe this is where they decided to plant their flag.
It's just one of the dumbest moves. I think they
can do property taxes. A couple of years ago, I
own a little thirty two unit of storage shit, and
one year they took my property taxes from one hundred
and ninety thousand to five hundred and forty thousand. You
can't have swarped that. And so the following year, I
(16:31):
hired a appraiser to go and appraise the business, and
he put it at two hundred and forty and so
I took his appraisal and took it to Brissouri County
and got it reduced. And then once again this year
they jacked it back up. Education. We need more parents involved.
We don't need money. Money is not the answer parent
(16:53):
parental involvement is. Anyways, overall, I think I think this
is really a stupid move on the Republican and it's
going to alienate in a lot of people. And that's
my two cents worth exactly right. It will not gain
a single vote. It will cost a number of votes.
But this was not a vote gainer. This was about
(17:15):
serving the alcohol industry. I like those folks. I like alcohol.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I want to be a state known as a leader
in freedom and individual choice. What you find out is
when you when you when you put all the people
who vote Republicans into a room, there is not complete
agreement on this. There are a lot of nanny state
(17:45):
Republicans and the only difference between them and the Iranian
Mullas is where they live and which God they worship.
But they too, they want they do not want women
showing any part of their bodies, maybe just the eyes.
(18:05):
They don't want any homos, they don't want any alcohol,
rather not any port, but they'll tolerate the port. This
idea that you are going to restrict adults from decisions
that they make is so absurd. There's a book I
(18:25):
can't remember the name of it. The guy talked about
the leaders of the Temperance Union and how they were
themselves drinkers. There is a very, very perverse thing with
some people who get righteous about making things illegal, making
them taboo. Is they like them to be illegal in
(18:47):
taboo so that they can do them. It's thrilling, they're
naughty and you find out that that's what they do.
I'm not saying that's Dan Patrick's point, that's not my point.
But there are a lot of people who will vote
and advocate for making something illegal that they themselves do.
This real weird deal. But this means that people are
(19:11):
gonna be in legal jeopardy, legal peril doing something that
yesterday was legal because they're still going to do it.
And that's absurd. That is ridiculous and absurd. And you
know what happens when this a guy gets gets selected
for a jury and they go down. They don't trust
the cops. Johnny Holmes, district attorney, used to say, if
(19:36):
you want to get rid of a bad bill, you
don't refuse to enforce it. You heavily enforce it. You
show people how bad the bill is. They'll do the
right thing from there. I don't understand why we have
a frank number two and I have a Frank number one.
That's weird. It's somebody's did you really write author as
(19:59):
this person's name? Okay? Author A U T h O R.
You know, you feel like you're the TSAREF talk. You
rank one of the top talk hosts in the country.
You've made something of yourself and you still got somebody
callscreen and putting somebody's name as author on the that's
where we are. You know. It's like, you know you're
(20:19):
lou Gerig, but you're having to drive yourself to the games. Author.
You're up.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
Michael Arriss, you do it.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
I'm good what you got it?
Speaker 7 (20:32):
And it is Arthur.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
I love Dan Patrick.
Speaker 7 (20:34):
I worked on Hiss a.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Very very low level volunteer for his campaign when he
first ran for state Senate.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
But he is so wrong about this so.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Wrong about this. I want to know if you could
probably tell me who introduced this bill?
Speaker 7 (20:51):
Who brought this out?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
There?
Speaker 9 (20:53):
Was it Dan Patrick?
Speaker 5 (20:54):
Or did somebody else bring the bill and Dan Patrick
latched onto it?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Oh no, no, as I understand it, Senate Bill three
was Dan Patrick's creation.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Well, whoever the caller was before me was right if
and you were right the Republicans talk about wanting to
turn Texas blue.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
It's stupid, ridiculous stuff like.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
This that is going to make that happen.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
That's exactly right, Thank you very much. You know, you
know what happens when a party dominates, as the Republicans
have in Texas since nineteen ninety four when George H.
George W. Bush defeated in Richards. You you have one
(21:42):
party rule after that and really consolidated by the early
two thousands. And one party rule means that people get lazy,
they start assuming they can do anything they want, and
they stop governing in a manner that is inclusive of
what the people want, and they start playing. You'll get corruption,
(22:07):
you'll get game playing. You'll get marginal fringe issues becoming
front and center because you don't think you're vulnerable and
that's how you give up control to that's how you
get good people to vote for Democrat, a protest vote.
And I've seen it happen so darn many times. I
can't tell you how many times I've seen this happen.
(22:29):
It happened so many times. You know, the country was
trending big time Republican, Nixon in sixty eight, Nixon in
seventy two, and then you have Watergate and the perception
of corruption, and in seventy six you end up with
Jimmy Carter, and I believe that was largely a reaction
(22:49):
to the belief that Nixon was so corrupt. Nixon wasn't
nearly as corrupt as LBJ, but the perception that he was.
Let's go to Michael. Michael, you're on the Michael berryship.
Speaker 7 (23:03):
But how's it going?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Berry Good?
Speaker 7 (23:06):
I just kind of wanted to come on here and
just talk about how, you know, this is gonna pretty
much affect me and some of the local people in
my area down here in Temple, Texas. You know, I've
been working for the last five years for Sintex Vape,
who's who's owned by a local veteran who is an MP.
For twenty twenty five years one of the best men
(23:28):
that I know, you know, and prior to working for him,
I probably really wouldn't have given that he was just
given an endless supply of opiates from the VA that honestly,
when he was off the script man, he really wasn't
a fun man to be around, and he was able
to take time get away from the opiates that the
VA had absolutely basically shoved down his throat and addicted
(23:50):
him to. And then luckily with the twenty eighteen Farm
Bill passing and him being able to actually consume and
find strains that were able to specifically help him in
his own medical degree. I just I just don't understand
why Dan Patrick wants to make senior citizens and the
veteran criminals.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Some don't want to hear it. He'll just go ahead
and say it. I'm sorry to Michael Barry show July
to among Stars together. The phone lines would go but quickly.
(24:58):
I was flying back from DC recently, and obviously I
had to get back late. And so we fly into
Houston and we land and there's no gate for us
(25:22):
to deboard. So pilot says, we're going to have to
wait till they clear us for a gate, So we
sat there for over two hours. Now, when I've flown
to Indian and I've flown to Japan, those are long flights.
You expected they're long flights. You settle in for that.
(25:44):
But when you've been on a plane and you kind
of mentally've landed, you've taxed. We sat there for over
two hours, couldn't get a gate. We arrived. It then
took forever or my bags to arrive because we had
moved to the gate lays now they have to move
(26:05):
all the stuff over there. And a friend was picking
me up, and there was a mile and a half
long back up to get in to pick everybody up.
It felt like I was at a bizarre in Mesopotamia
(26:27):
in fifteen forty, just matt just teeming with people, and
it was you know, hygiene is not practiced the same
around the world. I don't know how else to say. This,
hygiene is not you know, farbeit for me to question diversity.
(26:54):
Lord knows, I'm the last one because I'm the only
white guy in my house. But there were people from
countries dressed in ways I didn't even know. I mean,
I think there were people from countries, you know where
they use a goat's head for the polo ball, and
that I'd like to go to one of those games.
I really would, But I think i'd want to be
(27:14):
there during a cooler season, because it strikes me that
the winters are harsh and the summers are worse, you know, like, Yeah, anyway,
let's go to Teresa. Teresa, what do you have, sweetheart?
You hung up the last time I went to you.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
Yeah, no, I'm sorry. I was transferring from my earbud
to my phone. Sixty eight year old hospice nurse, breast
cancer survivor of five years. Our patients often have uncontrolled pain,
(27:58):
and I can't tell you the numb where of our
patients will say, well, my grandson said I should buy
some of this stuff and it would help me out.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I hear this all the time.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
And in my personal life. I can take the Omega
eight gummies, have a gummy, or I can take xen X. Now,
I can get all the Xenix I want, But is
it as good for me as the Omega eight? Same results,
(28:32):
But I can get addicted to the xen x. So
just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
You know, I'm not saying that because you are a nurse,
you know more than everyone in the world. But I
have found that nurses tend to be, particularly when it
comes to practical medical and health information, at least as
knowledgeable as doctors. Nurses tend to spend more time with patients,
(29:07):
around patients, interacting with patients. And it's amazing to me
how many nurses oppose the COVID shot. How many nurses
I hear from I can't read where they work. I
get them in trouble. Who who have your same opinion
on this issue? Let's go to Eavy Evy, you're on
(29:29):
the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead with her? Do you heavy?
What kind of name is Evy?
Speaker 4 (29:40):
Hell?
Speaker 2 (29:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
My daddy gave it to me. Okay, yeah, I'm I'm
I'm just a plumber, sir. I don't question things. I'll
fix them.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Oh are you out of Beaumont?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Yeah, man, it's a beautiful day here in mid County.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Yeah, you've called before?
Speaker 4 (29:58):
All right, go ahead, I love you show. Mister Burry
thinks it's gotten me through a lot of days, sir.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
That makes me happy to hear.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Today I'm officially Yeah, today I'm officially retired.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Oh so, so you finished up on Friday or Saturday?
Speaker 4 (30:19):
I did. I own my own business and I've been
turning down work for the last month.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Okay, so you've done your last project. Well, you know
as well as I do that you'll still have to
help the widow Jones when her hot water heater is
on the on the blink. But I get the point.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
I absolutely will. Mister Burry.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
How old are you?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Eh? But I'm seventy one years old and I'm strong
as a horse.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Brother man, I'm going to be honest with you. I
bet you you will find yourself thinking maybe you'll go back,
because I find a lot of people, if they're still
in good health and they don't need to move to
go see the Grint, that they end up kind of
wanting to go back and do it again.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I probably will, I'm sure, but I want to go
visit some places and spend some time with my family.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Do you think that if you could have explained to people, hey,
I'm going to be away for six months, we'll call
the retirement you just you know, here's who I recommend
you call that. Maybe you just do that and then
leave it there waiting for you in six months.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Mister Barry, My father started our business in nineteen sixty four.
People will call me every day, even though I've told
them I'm retired. I just don't look forward to ever
cleaning another sewer line in my life.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah. Yeah, I've always thought that's probably the worst part
of that business.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
It is, but it's a money making part because when
you're cleaning the sewer line, there's a problem and it's
got to be repaired. So you, like you always preach,
you use opportunities that you're given to promote yourself your
business and make your money.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Couldn't you sell the business to somebody?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
I I could. To me, what I may do is
is find a young plumber coming up that's uh, that's
a hustler and needs a break, and in Texas you can.
You can let them work under the umbrella of your
(32:35):
responsible master clumber's license and that paid, that pays, That
pays fifteen two thousand dollars a week.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
So you know, what's what's the name of your business?
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Edmie Robinson? What's the name of your business?
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Shorts Plumbing?
Speaker 3 (32:51):
That's it?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah. My last name is short s h O RT.
I'm not on any kind of websites or anything.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Sir, old school, old fashioned.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
You know, you know, mister Barry, I did a American
home shield work, warranty work. I worked for your family,
oh you Daddy and mama.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (33:14):
And the people that you work for in those home
warranty environments, they get mad. And they're never mad at
the home warranty. They're mad at the vendor.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah. Mh
You know the chain.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
There used to be a chain that went across the
deep end and he cut off.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
The six foot left the chain.
Speaker 4 (00:05):
He pulled up.
Speaker 5 (00:06):
He said, you walk out with that chain, and you
walked in the car and say you.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
May cut me man, but I'm gonna wrap this chain
around your head.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
You gotta fight.
Speaker 6 (00:16):
Why you are right?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
I wonder what is your message to Hezbollah? And it's
packer get wrong, don't, don't, don't, don't, Chirley, can't be serious.
I am serious, and don't call me Chirley.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Don't, don't, don't, But I'm serious. These are the kind
of guy you like to smacking.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Ass hearing me.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
We're gonna have a fight today after school, three o'clock in.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
The parking lot.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Press always asked me, don't I wish I were debating him?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
No, I wish you're in high school. I could take
him behind the gym.
Speaker 7 (00:54):
You gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Why you right, well, mister darthy man.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Nine staples to your DOSSI have three one broken balls,
two bullet womans, nine punctus of or stainless steel screws.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
That's an estimate. Of course, I'll give you a low walk.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
No, thank you do you enjoy pain.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Pain don't hurt.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Most of my patients would disagree with you. Okay, you
always carry your medical records around with you.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Safe time.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
It's not about being a tough guy.
Speaker 8 (01:37):
You like that old man.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
You want a piece of me.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I don't want a piece of you. I want the
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
You can see that I'm mentally incompetent because I can't.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Walk and I can read the hell out of both
of them. Fight all right. I'll take your calls onmost anything,
but particularly this issue of the THCHC. I would like
(02:13):
to hear from you whether you are for or against it,
with your thoughts on the matter. Seven one three nine
nine one thousand, seven one three nine nine nine one
thousand as those calls come in. Today, June second, for
those who follow the state legislature, is a big day.
It is known as seen a die, which means literally
(02:33):
without a day, meaning that there is not a day
after today for the legislature, unless, of course, there is
a special session which the governor has the power to call,
which means that there is no session for the House
and the Senate for five hundred and eighty nine days.
(02:57):
The legislature will reconvene of course again, unless there is
a special session called by the governor. The legislature will
reconvene on January twelfth, twenty twenty seven. As you know,
the Texas Legislature is not a full time legislature the
way Congress is. It is a biennial legislature, which means
(03:19):
they gather for one hundred and fifty days every two years.
So after today, all the things that you were promised
that weren't done will be excused because they ran out
of time. It's ran out of time. You can't say
we didn't have the numbers, because we have the House
and we have the Senate. We have the Lieutenant governor,
(03:41):
we have the governor, we have the state Supreme Court,
we have every elected statewide official, we have the Attorney General.
So why didn't the House and the Senate get the
things done? Most of the problems were in the House.
Most of the problems are in the House. So the
weekend final approval was given through reconciliation to the state budget.
(04:06):
It is the largest in Texas history, spending over three
hundred and thirty eight billion dollars. It will take effect
on September first and run through August thirty, first of
twenty twenty seven. Brandon Walton's who writes for Texas Scorecard,
(04:26):
which I encourage you to read. It's a very very
good report on what's going on in Austin. It's the
easiest way to find out what's going on in Austin.
It's Michael Quinnsulivan, Brandon Walton's. They do a fantastic job.
Fantastic job. He notes that this budget is an eight
point three percent increase over the last by and M
and a staggering forty three percent increase since the twenty
(04:51):
twenty two to twenty twenty three budget. So what did
Republicans do in Austin after you supported? Now? Will any
of them come home and say, Yeah, we just figured
we needed to spend a bunch more money. They will
not say that. They will say we ran out of time.
(05:13):
You didn't run out of time. You found the time
to spend it. You didn't find the time to cut it.
That's just it. They entered the session with a twenty
four billion dollar surplus. Only six and a half billion
of that surplus is being used for new property tax relief,
which is nothing all. While property taxes have risen thirteen
(05:37):
billion dollars since the last buy and M alone. That's
twenty one point six percent. If it feels like your
property tax bill is going through the roof, it is.
If it feels like the Republicans in Austin aren't doing
anything about it, they're not. That's exactly right. Now. They
(05:58):
got a big, big education bill because the rural the
rural Republicans and the urban Democrats have the coalition that
dominates on this issue. And that coalition is it's like
the neo cons the more money for public schools, the better.
It's good for your kids, except it's not. It's not
(06:22):
for your kids. It's for administrators and engineers and construction companies.
The education doesn't get better. In fact, you could plot it.
It's an X on the chart, quality of performance by
kids going down, expenditures on public education going up. They're
(06:42):
less safe and less productive than they've ever been. So
we got a school vouchers bill. We were promised a
school voucher bill, remember school vouchers. But the only way
they did that is to create a whole new funding pool.
We couldn't take it from public schools. Lord, No, the
(07:04):
children and the teachers so they just spent more eight
point five billion dollar school finance bill includes teacher pay raises,
more school funding, six hundred and seventy seven million for
early learning programs. It goes on and on, all right,
(07:25):
your thoughts on the dope coming up.
Speaker 9 (07:27):
With twenty five package and you get it all fiberglass
hood with air grabbing scoops with.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
The Michael Berry fucking hood.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Pins, shoosmobile, escape from the ordinary before we get to
the calls, fellow named Alan wrote, and I do realize
I guess that I get passionate when i'm when i'm
I love I love the clash of ideas very exciting
(07:55):
to me. I did debate all the way back into
my first year of high school, and I lived for it.
I love it and I love to I don't love
to argue. There's a difference between arguing, you know, who
should take out the trashes and argument. It's not a debate.
I love the clash of ideas, and it doesn't matter
(08:16):
who wins. It is the process that I find very exciting.
Just as I enjoy watching a sporting event, it doesn't
really matter to me which team wins. I enjoy the sport,
the performance of the sport, so Allen writes, So don't
take it personally. I don't dislike Dan Patrick, as I said,
I think he's been a very good lieutenant governor. He's
(08:36):
very popular. I think this is a bonehead move, and
I think it's driven for all the wrong reasons, as
has been suggested Alan Wrights. I took my ten year
old daughter to a movie last night and on the
menu they had THHC infused drinks. No thank you. I
don't want high school employees with access to THCHC and
(08:58):
the authority to put them in that might get into
my daughter's cup. I don't want it advertised to her.
Things were much better when all of this stuff was
still illegal. Well, by that measure, we should have prohibition.
Do you know the problems prohibition calls for this country.
You know when I tell people, well, then let's just
(09:18):
have problem, let's outlaw at all, they go, I be
for that, or they'll say, well, you know, yeah, but
alcohol is legal, so since it's legal, it should stay legal.
That's not a principal argument. If your concern is the kids,
I'm going to tell you because I've just had a
kid graduate a year ago, and I've got another one
who's going to be as a rising senior. I'm going
(09:39):
to tell you what happens at parties. A lot of
kids drink a lot. Almost no kids vape marijuana, almost none.
You don't why they drink because they steal it from
their parents. Yeah, because they steal it from their parents.
So the concern that, well, we don't want to kids
(10:00):
just for the kids. You've got these stories just for
the kids. Are you aware that there is alcohol everywhere
all the time. It's not a principal argument. Alcohol kills
more people in more ways than any of this stuff
could ever hope to trust me on that, And I'm
not trying to make alcohol illegal, are you? It doesn't
(10:21):
make any sense to me. It just doesn't make any sense. Kevin,
you're on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (10:28):
I love people that are ill informed, like that person
at the movies.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh your child.
Speaker 8 (10:36):
This whole argument about the children and saving the children,
and it's so I'm just so over it. It was cigarettes,
you know, it was puffing cans of air. You know,
we got to save the children, save the children. It's nonsense.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
What dan Patrick did the other day though, is he
got up there and just flat out lied repeatedly, not
one or two times, over and over and over, and
then doubled down on his lives. How any hell can
a politician do that and have absolutely nothing happened to him.
I mean, it's once again, there's a difference between an
(11:15):
opinion and stating facts. He was getting up there stating
saying that kids are dying because of this. There has
not been one kid died from a damn gummy not one.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Well, first of all, I don't know that that is true.
For this reason. The synthetic stuff, the synthetic stuff is
not what the real stuff is. The synthetic stuff is
no boy, no, not good. Now should it be made
(11:51):
illegal when and you know why people do the synthetic
stuff because the real stuff is illegal. All that delta A,
all that stuff. You know why that's out there because
when you make stuff illegal that people want, sex, alcohol, gambling,
they still do it, right, they still do it. But
(12:16):
now what they do is they find ways to do
it that are illegal. So you drive things underground. You
know what happens when you drive things underground, You make
them the domain of bad actors. See, the worst thing
for the cartels was making marijuana illegal in places like
California and Colorado. They nobody wanted their dope because now
(12:42):
you had you had dope that was clean, that was
that was made in a safe environment that you didn't
have to worry the person selling it to you was
going to shoot you. When that happened, that changed the
whole game. Change the whole game the cartels, That whole
(13:04):
division of their far flung enterprise was done, and so
they had to find new places to apply their trade
and the synthetic marijuana. There are some downsays. I know
a lot of people, and I didn't until I started
talking about this, but I've heard from them. I know
(13:26):
a lot of people who are friends of mine, normal guys,
successful guys who drink a marijuana drink that they get
at specs or wherever they get. They get their liquor
every night to go to bed. The going to sleep
process is such a big issue, in such a health
(13:47):
related issue, and nobody wants to talk about it. But
a lot of people struggle to go to sleep and
they need sleep. And a lot of people struggle with
pain and they have pain, and how we deal with that.
It strikes me we should be a bit more mature.
How about that, Jason, you're up? Go ahead?
Speaker 9 (14:06):
Yes, sir, I know I'm biased because I'm a retired
Harrison County deputy. But in twenty ten, when I was
still on patrol, I went to a high school graduation
party ten Review High School. A little girl had to
get life flight because she smoked cush because it was legal,
and she ended up almost dying. And I told those kids,
You're not supposed to say this, but you know.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Smoke weed.
Speaker 9 (14:25):
You might get a couple of days or weeks in jail,
but you're not going to die. But that I saw
that girl get life flighted from smoking cush just because
it was legal. But again, like I said, I'm biased
from what I did for twenty years, but I'm all
against it personally.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Well, the problem is, I think the whole overall approach
is really messed up. I'm reminded of the line by Seneca.
Laws do not persuade just because they threaten. Let's as
do we have time? All right, let's make a quick one.
(15:00):
Let's go to Teresa. Teresa, go ahead, Teresa, you're up.
Oh she dropped. Jason, you're up, go ahead. Oh, Jason
was already up.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Frank you go ahead, which Frank number two, Okay, that's me.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Personally. I'm against it. I think it's really a stupid
move on the Republican's part.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
All right, hold on second, Frank number two, number two,
you'll be number one, number two on his jersey, number
one in your heart coming up.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And Michael Bay.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
All right, let's go back to Frank number two. Frank
number two, you were on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir,
so you can start over, yes.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Sir, okay, Yeah, I'm against this. I think it's a
pretty dumb move. We're solving a problem that doesn't exist,
and certainly nobody asked for. The Republicans failed on property taxes,
and we're feeding more money to an inep school system.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
And I just can't.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Believe this is where they decided to plant their flag.
It's just one of the dumbest moves. I think they
can do property taxes. A couple of years ago, I
own a little thirty two unit of storage shit, and
one year they took my property taxes from one hundred
and ninety thousand to five hundred and forty thousand. You
can't have swarped that. And so the following year, I
(16:31):
hired a appraiser to go and appraise the business, and
he put it at two hundred and forty and so
I took his appraisal and took it to Brissouri County
and got it reduced. And then once again this year
they jacked it back up. Education. We need more parents involved.
We don't need money. Money is not the answer parent
(16:53):
parental involvement is. Anyways, overall, I think I think this
is really a stupid move on the Republican and it's
going to alienate in a lot of people. And that's
my two cents worth exactly right. It will not gain
a single vote. It will cost a number of votes.
But this was not a vote gainer. This was about
(17:15):
serving the alcohol industry. I like those folks. I like alcohol.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I want to be a state known as a leader
in freedom and individual choice. What you find out is
when you when you when you put all the people
who vote Republicans into a room, there is not complete
agreement on this. There are a lot of nanny state
(17:45):
Republicans and the only difference between them and the Iranian
Mullas is where they live and which God they worship.
But they too, they want they do not want women
showing any part of their bodies, maybe just the eyes.
(18:05):
They don't want any homos, they don't want any alcohol,
rather not any port, but they'll tolerate the port. This
idea that you are going to restrict adults from decisions
that they make is so absurd. There's a book I
(18:25):
can't remember the name of it. The guy talked about
the leaders of the Temperance Union and how they were
themselves drinkers. There is a very, very perverse thing with
some people who get righteous about making things illegal, making
them taboo. Is they like them to be illegal in
(18:47):
taboo so that they can do them. It's thrilling, they're
naughty and you find out that that's what they do.
I'm not saying that's Dan Patrick's point, that's not my point.
But there are a lot of people who will vote
and advocate for making something illegal that they themselves do.
This real weird deal. But this means that people are
(19:11):
gonna be in legal jeopardy, legal peril doing something that
yesterday was legal because they're still going to do it.
And that's absurd. That is ridiculous and absurd. And you
know what happens when this a guy gets gets selected
for a jury and they go down. They don't trust
the cops. Johnny Holmes, district attorney, used to say, if
(19:36):
you want to get rid of a bad bill, you
don't refuse to enforce it. You heavily enforce it. You
show people how bad the bill is. They'll do the
right thing from there. I don't understand why we have
a frank number two and I have a Frank number one.
That's weird. It's somebody's did you really write author as
(19:59):
this person's name? Okay? Author A U T h O R.
You know, you feel like you're the TSAREF talk. You
rank one of the top talk hosts in the country.
You've made something of yourself and you still got somebody
callscreen and putting somebody's name as author on the that's
where we are. You know. It's like, you know you're
(20:19):
lou Gerig, but you're having to drive yourself to the games. Author.
You're up.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
Michael Arriss, you do it.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
I'm good what you got it?
Speaker 7 (20:32):
And it is Arthur.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
I love Dan Patrick.
Speaker 7 (20:34):
I worked on Hiss a.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Very very low level volunteer for his campaign when he
first ran for state Senate.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
But he is so wrong about this so.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Wrong about this. I want to know if you could
probably tell me who introduced this bill?
Speaker 7 (20:51):
Who brought this out?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
There?
Speaker 9 (20:53):
Was it Dan Patrick?
Speaker 5 (20:54):
Or did somebody else bring the bill and Dan Patrick
latched onto it?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Oh no, no, as I understand it, Senate Bill three
was Dan Patrick's creation.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Well, whoever the caller was before me was right if
and you were right the Republicans talk about wanting to
turn Texas blue.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
It's stupid, ridiculous stuff like.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
This that is going to make that happen.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
That's exactly right, Thank you very much. You know, you
know what happens when a party dominates, as the Republicans
have in Texas since nineteen ninety four when George H.
George W. Bush defeated in Richards. You you have one
(21:42):
party rule after that and really consolidated by the early
two thousands. And one party rule means that people get lazy,
they start assuming they can do anything they want, and
they stop governing in a manner that is inclusive of
what the people want, and they start playing. You'll get corruption,
(22:07):
you'll get game playing. You'll get marginal fringe issues becoming
front and center because you don't think you're vulnerable and
that's how you give up control to that's how you
get good people to vote for Democrat, a protest vote.
And I've seen it happen so darn many times. I
can't tell you how many times I've seen this happen.
(22:29):
It happened so many times. You know, the country was
trending big time Republican, Nixon in sixty eight, Nixon in
seventy two, and then you have Watergate and the perception
of corruption, and in seventy six you end up with
Jimmy Carter, and I believe that was largely a reaction
(22:49):
to the belief that Nixon was so corrupt. Nixon wasn't
nearly as corrupt as LBJ, but the perception that he was.
Let's go to Michael. Michael, you're on the Michael berryship.
Speaker 7 (23:03):
But how's it going?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Berry Good?
Speaker 7 (23:06):
I just kind of wanted to come on here and
just talk about how, you know, this is gonna pretty
much affect me and some of the local people in
my area down here in Temple, Texas. You know, I've
been working for the last five years for Sintex Vape,
who's who's owned by a local veteran who is an MP.
For twenty twenty five years one of the best men
(23:28):
that I know, you know, and prior to working for him,
I probably really wouldn't have given that he was just
given an endless supply of opiates from the VA that honestly,
when he was off the script man, he really wasn't
a fun man to be around, and he was able
to take time get away from the opiates that the
VA had absolutely basically shoved down his throat and addicted
(23:50):
him to. And then luckily with the twenty eighteen Farm
Bill passing and him being able to actually consume and
find strains that were able to specifically help him in
his own medical degree. I just I just don't understand
why Dan Patrick wants to make senior citizens and the
veteran criminals.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Some don't want to hear it. He'll just go ahead
and say it. I'm sorry to Michael Barry show July
to among Stars together. The phone lines would go but quickly.
(24:58):
I was flying back from DC recently, and obviously I
had to get back late. And so we fly into
Houston and we land and there's no gate for us
(25:22):
to deboard. So pilot says, we're going to have to
wait till they clear us for a gate, So we
sat there for over two hours. Now, when I've flown
to Indian and I've flown to Japan, those are long flights.
You expected they're long flights. You settle in for that.
(25:44):
But when you've been on a plane and you kind
of mentally've landed, you've taxed. We sat there for over
two hours, couldn't get a gate. We arrived. It then
took forever or my bags to arrive because we had
moved to the gate lays now they have to move
(26:05):
all the stuff over there. And a friend was picking
me up, and there was a mile and a half
long back up to get in to pick everybody up.
It felt like I was at a bizarre in Mesopotamia
(26:27):
in fifteen forty, just matt just teeming with people, and
it was you know, hygiene is not practiced the same
around the world. I don't know how else to say. This,
hygiene is not you know, farbeit for me to question diversity.
(26:54):
Lord knows, I'm the last one because I'm the only
white guy in my house. But there were people from
countries dressed in ways I didn't even know. I mean,
I think there were people from countries, you know where
they use a goat's head for the polo ball, and
that I'd like to go to one of those games.
I really would, But I think i'd want to be
(27:14):
there during a cooler season, because it strikes me that
the winters are harsh and the summers are worse, you know, like, Yeah, anyway,
let's go to Teresa. Teresa, what do you have, sweetheart?
You hung up the last time I went to you.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
Yeah, no, I'm sorry. I was transferring from my earbud
to my phone. Sixty eight year old hospice nurse, breast
cancer survivor of five years. Our patients often have uncontrolled pain,
(27:58):
and I can't tell you the numb where of our
patients will say, well, my grandson said I should buy
some of this stuff and it would help me out.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I hear this all the time.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
And in my personal life. I can take the Omega
eight gummies, have a gummy, or I can take xen X. Now,
I can get all the Xenix I want, But is
it as good for me as the Omega eight? Same results,
(28:32):
But I can get addicted to the xen x. So
just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
You know, I'm not saying that because you are a nurse,
you know more than everyone in the world. But I
have found that nurses tend to be, particularly when it
comes to practical medical and health information, at least as
knowledgeable as doctors. Nurses tend to spend more time with patients,
(29:07):
around patients, interacting with patients. And it's amazing to me
how many nurses oppose the COVID shot. How many nurses
I hear from I can't read where they work. I
get them in trouble. Who who have your same opinion
on this issue? Let's go to Eavy Evy, you're on
(29:29):
the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead with her? Do you heavy?
What kind of name is Evy?
Speaker 4 (29:40):
Hell?
Speaker 2 (29:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
My daddy gave it to me. Okay, yeah, I'm I'm
I'm just a plumber, sir. I don't question things. I'll
fix them.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Oh are you out of Beaumont?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Yeah, man, it's a beautiful day here in mid County.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Yeah, you've called before?
Speaker 4 (29:58):
All right, go ahead, I love you show. Mister Burry
thinks it's gotten me through a lot of days, sir.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
That makes me happy to hear.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Today I'm officially Yeah, today I'm officially retired.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Oh so, so you finished up on Friday or Saturday?
Speaker 4 (30:19):
I did. I own my own business and I've been
turning down work for the last month.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Okay, so you've done your last project. Well, you know
as well as I do that you'll still have to
help the widow Jones when her hot water heater is
on the on the blink. But I get the point.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
I absolutely will. Mister Burry.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
How old are you?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Eh? But I'm seventy one years old and I'm strong
as a horse.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Brother man, I'm going to be honest with you. I
bet you you will find yourself thinking maybe you'll go back,
because I find a lot of people, if they're still
in good health and they don't need to move to
go see the Grint, that they end up kind of
wanting to go back and do it again.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I probably will, I'm sure, but I want to go
visit some places and spend some time with my family.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Do you think that if you could have explained to people, hey,
I'm going to be away for six months, we'll call
the retirement you just you know, here's who I recommend
you call that. Maybe you just do that and then
leave it there waiting for you in six months.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Mister Barry, My father started our business in nineteen sixty four.
People will call me every day, even though I've told
them I'm retired. I just don't look forward to ever
cleaning another sewer line in my life.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah. Yeah, I've always thought that's probably the worst part
of that business.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
It is, but it's a money making part because when
you're cleaning the sewer line, there's a problem and it's
got to be repaired. So you, like you always preach,
you use opportunities that you're given to promote yourself your
business and make your money.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Couldn't you sell the business to somebody?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
I I could. To me, what I may do is
is find a young plumber coming up that's uh, that's
a hustler and needs a break, and in Texas you can.
You can let them work under the umbrella of your
(32:35):
responsible master clumber's license and that paid, that pays, That
pays fifteen two thousand dollars a week.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
So you know, what's what's the name of your business?
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Edmie Robinson? What's the name of your business?
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Shorts Plumbing?
Speaker 3 (32:51):
That's it?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah. My last name is short s h O RT.
I'm not on any kind of websites or anything.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Sir, old school, old fashioned.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
You know, you know, mister Barry, I did a American
home shield work, warranty work. I worked for your family,
oh you Daddy and mama.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (33:14):
And the people that you work for in those home
warranty environments, they get mad. And they're never mad at
the home warranty. They're mad at the vendor.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah. Mh
