Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Arry Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
It's Charlie from BlackBerry Smoke. I can feel a good
one coming on. It's the Michael Berry Show. Must Carry.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I didn't expect to talk bitcoin this.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Much, didn't.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
But think about that too.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
So you understand. If you are a bitcoin insider and
you're screaming and hollering, going, Michael, you got that wrong.
Yet you're not who this show is for. A sweet
lady named Bertha called up early in the show and asked,
what is bitcoin back by? If currency is backed by gold.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
What is it back by?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
And I made the point we're off the goal stander.
We've been off the goal center a long time. Our
currency is backed by nothing. We're just printing out paper
and the more we print, the more there is. And
it's backed by nothing. But I do the show on
almost every subject just so you know going forward, if
you think to yourself, he should know more about that
than that.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Many times I do.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I do the show for people who would not get
an answer to a question, but for on this show.
This is not a bitcoin convention. We're not going to
use acronyms and all those I get emails quite frequently
on certain matters, one of them being bitcoin, and so.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
It hit me.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Let me call my guy that I've called and asked
for advice a lot of times, and let's take it
down to a level that's understandable. You know that I
had a listener who, unbeknownst to me, spent seven hundred
thousand dollars investing in bitcoin and went through my show sponsor,
(02:01):
the Archpublic dot com, who's my guest right now, and
I didn't even know about it. This is a sophisticated
guy financially, he just wanted to you know, he's got gold,
he's got stocks, he's got this, he's got this, and
he wanted to go through bitcoin. So when I say
I want to have a conversation to a base level conversation,
that doesn't mean that the people who are paying attention
or idiots. It means that people might have a relatively
(02:22):
sophisticated understanding of equities and bonds and treasuries and even
gold and silver and commodities or memorabilia for that matter,
or real estate, but they just don't understand bitcoin. Now,
my question was Wall Street Journal today had two different stories.
One was Trump says that monetary policy through the FED,
(02:43):
and I hope he fires your own power.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I want to see that.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I want to see him. I want to see the
quote unquote constitutional crisis because if he appoints him, that
he can fire him. And I feel confident of that,
and I've always felt that long before this little tip.
But secondly, he says he wants to make the United
States a bitcoin superpower. So Tillmanholloway of the Archpublic dot
com is our guest. Tillan, you got four minutes left
(03:06):
in this segment. I'm turning off my mic. Could you
speak to those two issues.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
The reason why he's wanting to do this is because
the money printing has become a political weapon, and we
all see it.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
It's bills that are passed.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
With tremendous fat ninety percent fat to ten percent substance.
We've seen the corruption of pretty much every government agency
now being put to the test and being held accountable
through DOGE.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
So there's this incredible.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Waste that has been going on for so long because
the printing press is used, it's used for political purposes,
and bitcoin has no agenda. Bitcoin cannot be paid with
fake dollars in order to have loyalty to any one
(04:01):
party or any one person. It's a money and a
network that was built for the.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
People by the people.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And there's a saying in the bitcoin community that is,
you get the price that you deserve. If you are
a bleeding edge technologist and love economics and you got
in in twenty thirteen, you deserved a very very low price,
and you got that. And the price of bitcoin has
no cap. The price of real estate is become one
(04:32):
hundred and seventy trillion plus dollar market cap globally because
it's lendable, it's borrowed. You can borrow against real estate
very easily. You mentioned earlier that Trump is going to
make America a banking superpower on the back of bitcoin.
That means that he.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Has opened up and he's already told the.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Rules that used to prohibit banks from holding bitcoin on
a bounce sheet, he's rescinded those rules, so now bitcoin
can be held by banks. Banks can use it as
a base collateral denominator, which means they're going to start
to offer loans against bitcoin, and that's going to be
something that will drive the market of bitcoin into the
(05:19):
same type of stratosphere that the real estate market is.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
And so we're right now at about a one.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Point seven trillion.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Dollar market CAB and so if we go to real estate, we're.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Talking about over one hundred acts. From where we sit
right now. That sounds ridiculous, but if you understand economic principles,
then they continued to dig deeper and deeper into why
bitcoin has been successful for sixteen plus years in spite
of every government on the planet trying to take it
out at some point. It's been successful because it's pure economics,
(05:54):
it's pure math. And so this is a network that's
built on the conviction of people who understand the network
and want to contribute to it with computing power. And
now that network has become so powerful that everyone has
to recognize it, including traditional finance.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
And that's why you're.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Seeing products that are Wall Street products being built on
the back of something that is not a Wall Street product,
which is Bitcoin. It's it's completely off their network. Bitcoin
is not controllable on any one website or anyone exchange
or anyone country. It is available to anyone that wants
(06:31):
to participate in at any time they want to participate,
no rules, So you asked earlier, like past in the.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
Old days, how is wealth?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
How is it fair that if you're not invited to
the Facebook IPO that you don't get to participate in
that launch.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, bitcoin changes.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
That you can participate straight away anybody, no matter how.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
All right there, because I think people want to understand that.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I hope you were as interested in it as I am.
But hold on just sitting here listening therry. I want
to get right to this.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Why I'm trying to answer a lot of bitcoin questions
I get from listeners. And I'm not suggesting you run
out and invest in bitcoin. That's not what I'm saying
to do. That's not a sales picture or anything. I
like to know a lot of things about a lot
of things. I've had my gold guy on, Kenny Duncan
at us Coins in Houston to talk about gold and
commodities and why the price we hit an all time
(07:32):
high as it last week went up to about thirty
two hundred. I believe it was. I don't follow the
commodity prices closely, but I like to have a general idea. Heck,
I like to know what we sell them for at
a bushell. I do try to keep up with the
price of oil because I live in Houston, and for
our Houston and Tulsa and the like, listeners is a
(07:53):
big part of our lives. So I try to know
a little bit about everything. But many people in today's
world of volatility of the stock market, which is not
necessarily a bad thing by the way, that they're interested
in looking at at alternate, you know, diversifying. If you
put all your eggs in one basket, then that's a
(08:14):
dangerous thing. And if that's the stock market, then you
end up getting mad at Trump overdoing things that are
good for the overall country but might cost the stock
market for a minute, and then you're skewing your view
of his actions not based on whether they're good for
our country, but whether they're good for your stock portfolio today.
And that's a bad way to review our nation's policies
and wars and the like. So Tilman Holloway the Archpublic
(08:40):
dot Com, I don't think you were finished with your answer,
and I think it's an important question. So if you
could re ask it in a way that you deal
with this more than I do explaining this to people,
and I appreciate you taking the tone of not talking
over our head. I know that's hard for you to
do because you're an expert in it, but that's what
I want and that's what our listeners want.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Well.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
The value proposition of bitcoin is that it's for the people.
So if the value proposition can't be conveyed simply, then
it's failed its mission. And back to access financial systems.
When you have a central party that's in charge, you
have financial offerings with limited access based upon your net worth.
(09:25):
Here's the prime example. A certain segment of the US
population is relegated to be bankless. They have to go
to payday loans and cash their checks for their work.
Then you have the bankable folks. Then you have people
who can get loans with their signature. There's this wide
range of financial literacy and capabilities, and based upon where
(09:50):
you fall in that range, will you're limited to what
those offers those central parties are offering you?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Is it pertains?
Speaker 5 (09:56):
The access bit coin is completely different they bitcoin. If
you want to contribute to the network, if you don't
have money to buy bitcoin, get into mining. You can
literally take a computer and you can start contributing to
the network and it will pay you in bitcoin. Because
it values you. Your contribution means something. And if you have capital,
(10:17):
ask yourself the question, how many of my investments are
denominated outside of the US dollar? And is that a
good practice If I'm going to be diversified against weakness
in the US dollar?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
If if there's if.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
We're going to be printing five trillion dollars of capital
over the next few years, which we are, that's going
to drive the value of each dollar down. And so
where do you invest when the dollar is going down
in value?
Speaker 6 (10:44):
And ask yourself, is there something that I.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
Have exposure to that provides me the same benefits that
bitcoin provides me, that I have control over it. That
it does not move with the stock market. It's even
though the stock market's been getting crushed, it's up pointy
five percent over the last month. So it's inversely correlated.
It's not it's not like anything else.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
That you hold.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
And diversification, to your point earlier, is a good practice
for anyone.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
So if you don't own any you.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Know, start as small.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
As you want to. Don't don't like I.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
Tell people who are just starting out, and I would
tell this to a lot of youth.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
If you don't have the discretionary.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Income to invest in it on a monthly basis, or
buy some bitcoin then go do some odd jobs. You
use the sweat of your brow to just dabble in
it so that you can see if it's for you,
see the value proposition that it provides you. And once
you've used it, if it doesn't change your mind, then
you know you're that much smarter and you can speak
(11:45):
to it that much more intelligently. And it may not
be for you, but it's for a lot of people,
and Wall Street has said it's for them. And so
if you're seeing corporations adding it in much much larger
quantities and we've ever seen in history before, then one
would assume that the price would have to go up
with that demand. And that's why I think, you know,
(12:07):
it provides a risk reward ratio or a potential reward
that way outweighs the resk.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
President Trump is a master negotiator. You see that in
the Art of the Deal, and you see that in
everything he's ever done. You saw it politically, the deals
he would cut to win votes, the deals he would
cut to get support, the deals he cuts to get
Ukraine in Russia to the table, and he will get
a deal done, and I think he'll get a deal
done with Iran. And it's amazing how he does that,
(12:40):
and you see it, but it shouldn't be that amazing.
It's simple basic human instinct. I say that Trump operates
on a scale like if you're at the dog park
and you're watching dogs and how they interact. He understands
the atavistic nature of human beings at their very core.
Whether he has to bully you or seduce you, he
will do whatever it takes to get what he needs
(13:01):
out of you at that moment. But there is something
fascinating going on with President Trump, and at the very
time that he's criticizing the FED, and that's monetary policy, folks.
That's the people who churn out all this cash that
creates inflation over a period of time, and now in
order to deal with inflation, they've withheld the cash in
(13:25):
order to drive inflation down. But that means that you
can't borrow money to buy a house, a car, a furniture,
or any number of other things. And what he's doing,
this is Trump one oh one, This is Trump masterclass.
Is he says the FED is the reason for the problems,
not the tariff. The tariffs are not our problems. It's
the Fed and these interest rates. And in that sense
(13:47):
he's right, But he also says, and I'm going to
make us a crypto superpower, a bitcoin superpower. That's sort
of like, how many of you out there ever had
a situation, girls, ladies, I'm many of you out there
ever said you know, Tommy's not paying enough attention to me,
(14:10):
and I don't like that. So you know what I'm
gonna do. I'm gonna tell Tommy, hey, let's cool this
thing for a little bit.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
And you go.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
To his favorite hangout with his buddies, and you go
there with Billy, and he sees you with Billy. Now,
he might kill Billy, he might hate you forever and
never have anything to do with you, or he might
just say, you know what, I better put a ring
on it. I'm gonna end up losing her. You make
him a little jealous and show him you have an
(14:39):
alternative if you're if you're selling your house and you're
asking five point fifty for it and somebody comes in
at four eighty five and you go, not only will
I not accept that, but just so you know, we've
got another guy, and he's coming in to see it
tomorrow and it's his third showing and he's saying it's
going to be a full price offer. Okay, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we'll do that too, take.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It off the market.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Right now, Trump is using bitcoin as an alternative to cash,
to green money, and that's going to have an effect
that's going to drive up bitcoin. I don't make, I
don't make anyway, let's continue our conversational Moon can you
ask Tooman if you can hang.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
On here, But Michael Berry show what I didn't expect
to spend the whole show on bitcoin.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
But let's be honest, what Nancy Pelosi or Jasmine Crockett
said today or yesterday is not really meaningful in the
long term sense.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
It's really not. It's it's the inside.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Baseball of of who said Nana Nana boo boo. And
this is important. We're talking about financial systems and payment
systems and transactions and government involvement in it all. And
I don't want to be boring, and I don't want
to only talk about the things that we ought to
be talking about because they're the most important. But I
do think we ought to ever saw often try to
work them in and learn a little something.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
No.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Tillman Holloway is our guest. He is a friend, and
he has become a guy that I lean on for
advice on cryptocurrency's Bitcoin being primary among them.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
He was in the business. He's a very very sharp guy.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
And you know, I have lots of friends who are
former football players at a very high level. He was
a star for the University of Texas Longhorns as alignman,
you know, the alignmenter. You don't expect that guy to
be genius. I would not want to pit my IQ
against this fellow. I'll tell you that for sure. He's
done a lot in his life. He's very very smart,
and he was very interested in financial systems early on
(16:44):
in finance, and he started a company that has become
phenomenally successful called the archpublic dot com and it's a
software company where you can trade bitcoin based on prices
and all that. And he's explained the system to me
to the level apt Finally, after years of not caring,
(17:05):
paid attention to it, and now it's one of the
things that.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I read about every day.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Find it very very interesting, and hopefully some of you
do as well. Tom and I can't remember where we
left the last segment. I'm hoping you do because you're
younger than I am.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Yeah, well, I can tell you the volatility that you
spoke to earlier is an asset of this market and
we've seen the traditional markets have that same volatility, and
so what we've tried to do at by the way,
we've got you can go to the archpublic dot com
or archpublic dot com. We've got that domain as well,
and you can sign up for software that you control,
(17:44):
that you set the parameters to that will act on
your behalf when the market conditions present the parameters that
you've set into it. So if you say, you know what,
I want to buy one hundred and fifty dollars a
month of bitcoin and I want to do that when
the market did, you can absolutely set that instance up
and set it and forget it and it will work
(18:05):
on your behalf and do something that would take you
a lot of time, effort, and emotion to sit in
front of your computer and do.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
And so you're going to get a better outcome.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
Over the long haul. And that service is one hundred
percent free to use. We've created the software to help
people own bitcoin and to help people get into something
that over the last sixteen years.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
Has been somewhat difficult and.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Had a steep learning curve to get in. We try
to make it very, very simple. We will help set
up We have a concierge division that can help set
up instances and set up the software for you. But
once you set it up, it's a set it and
forget it and you look back over, you know, periods
of time and you're very happy with the fact that
you had something working on your palf. Because most of us,
(18:48):
with all the intentions that we have to you know,
get into something new, there's there's life that gets in
the way, and automated trading and setting up automated instances
that act.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
On year behalf is a real game changer.
Speaker 5 (19:02):
It just really opens your eyes to the fact that
you can be a market participant and not be an
expert and not sit in front of your computer every
morning and do calculations. It does it for you, and
we can show you how to use it.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Let me hold you there for a moment. So one
of my very dear friends is a guy named Ike Claypool,
and we played pickleball a lot together and our kids
are the same age, and he has a son at
ut and he has another son at Georgia. It's a
little older than our kids. And beautiful wife. They've been
married forever. He started at Arthur Anderson or Anderson Consulting.
(19:39):
He's an accounting guy, as a fundamentals guy, and he
became a day trader, I don't know, twenty five years ago.
He's a little bit younger than me, and that's what
he does. And he's a day trader of futures and
the like.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
And he is glued to.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
His computer when the stock market is open because he
has to execute trades. And we talk a lot about
executing trades in.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Time.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
They put in a big pipeline from Chicago to New
York because the difference between being able to execute your
trade in one eighth of a second or point one
of a second is could mean billions of dollars, right,
it's the speed, and we're talking about nano second differences. Well,
(20:31):
that's because when those trades are happening, because he wants
to hit this. He wants to sell at this price
or buy at this price, buy the dipton and sell later.
That is so important that it happened at that specific moment.
Can you speak to I've got a minute and a
half left. Can you speak to how what you do
is important because unlike the stock market, the bitcoin market
(20:53):
is open twenty four hours a day. So you set
that price and go to bed, and if it hits
that you buy or sell whatever you've instructed it to do.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I thought that was fascinating.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Yeah, that's right, And so we can work off of percentages.
So let's say you go to sleep at night and
you have a percentage in there of if the market
drops on a six hour candle of more than five percent,
I want to buy X number of dollars a bitcoin. Well,
you're asleep and you have that parameter set, and if
that event occurs, you wake up the next morning and
(21:24):
you're very happy because you bought the dip that you
could not otherwise have purchased. And so the market doesn't
care about when you want to be awake and when
you want to be at your computer. The market presents
opportunities to buy and accumulate all the time and when
you kind of least expect it. And so you having
automation sit there and wait for those events to take place,
(21:45):
is going to give you not only the opportunity to
actually enter those positions, but when you enter those positions,
to your point, automation interspositions faster than any human can
click the mouse and put in the prim So you're
getting the best price fills at those varying rates or
at those varying time points.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
So that really matter.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
And so over time those changes accumulate and they make
a big, big difference. And so we've got customers, like
I said, that are using our free product and doing
very very small incremental investing in bitcoin with our product,
and we help them do that. And then we also
have institutional clients and companies and people who have companies
(22:31):
that want to add bitcoin at a significant rate to
their balance sheet. Well, if you're behind the curve and
you don't own any bitcoin and you want to accumulate
a lot, there's risk in how many times you buy in.
So if you chose to put a million dollars in
the market today, well you're tied to the eighty.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Five thousand dollars price tag.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
If the price goes down to sixty five, you're down
a considerable percentage. Whereas if you had a schedule and
an automated schedule that took advantage of dips that got
that million dollars placed over a period of two months,
based upon when the opportunity has presented themselves. Then you're
gonna have a blended rate of entry versus a fixed
point of entry, and that's going to reduce your risk.
(23:14):
That's just a much more prudent way. It's called dollar
cost averaging. But this is an intelligent way to dollar
cost average and to do it without you having to
sit there and mail.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I'm up against a break, my man. I find what
you say fascinating. I hope others do as well. You
can find him at archpublic dot com or you can
always email me and I'll connect you to those folks. Hey,
thanks for making so much time with us to see
evening Bunny.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
I appreciate you real thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
It's called branding. It's the use of a song or
a sound at a certain time to create a mood.
There's something called a late motif in Broadway or West
End musicals, they would use that. If you've seen cats,
(24:03):
you know that there is the song for the jellical cats,
or there's there's memory that creates a certain mood, or
if you've seen what's the one with the half a
mask Phantom.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Of the Opera.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
You know that when you're in the underground layer, there
is a certain sort of tense, unsettling undertone to the
music that is consistent that puts you back into that
environment in your mindset back into that environment or avida.
All of those Sir Timothy Rice and Sir Anthony not
(24:42):
Sir Anthony Hocketts, Andrew Lloyd Webber, they are brilliant at
the use of what's called the late mortif. But sonic
branding means that this song should cue you to the
end of our show for the week. Now, we do
do a Saturday pod cast, So if you're cleaning out
the garage one of my favorite things to do on
(25:03):
a Saturday. I know it's boring, lame, it's true, or
gardening or riding your bike or whatever else you're doing,
you could put your headsets in and go to our
podcast and listen to Saturday podcast, which we make fresh.
It's not a rebroadcast of the show, but I thought
we'd use this last segment. I was thinking to my
mom earlier, and my mom was not a big girl necessarily,
(25:26):
but you'll understand why.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
In a moment.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
A star of he Haw, which I grew up loving,
named Bertha Louise Habel has died, and she went by
Lulu on the show. She's a big girl, and she
called herself the fat girl because that's how people remembered
her on the show. And I got to thinking, you know,
she went from Bertha to Lulu. If you're going to
(25:50):
pick a stage name, you went from one fat girl
name to another big girl name. Bertha Louise Habel was
born on May sixth, nineteen four forty six. She was
raised in an orphanage. Nineteen sixty four, she made a
living as Lulu Roman, the world's biggest Go Go dancer.
(26:11):
You know, you got to kind of half admire that
she was Lizo before Lizo was Lizo before there was
a whole body positive.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
You're fat, and that's wonderful thing.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
And buck Owens in all his genius and boy, he
was one hell of a businessman. He Conway twenty, some
of these guys were Charlie Pride, were really good businessmen.
Buck Owens discovered her and put her on he Haw,
and in nineteen seventy one, she was arrested on a
drug possession charge and sentenced to four years in jail,
and two years later she converted to Christ and was
(26:44):
able to win back her job on he Haw and
her singing career took off. That became her ministry. She
allowed herself to be used for good and she had
a very successful career in gospel music. It's a wonderful
story of redemption. She wasn't she wasn't formally trained, but
(27:04):
she would go on to release twelve albums. She would
record with Dolly Parton, George Jones, and others, and they
all wanted to record with her. She went into country
music sorry Country Gospel Hall of Fame in nineteen ninety
nine along with Andy Griffith. And so I'm going to
end the show with a little bit of with a
(27:25):
little bit of let's start with he Haul the All
jug Band. I'm an end the show on her positive note,
start with that.
Speaker 8 (27:32):
Ramon music today.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Good morning.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
If I were to start the line, oh, we're not
gonna go around starting rumors, because really.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
We're just not the gospel good for you. Ramon knows
it all right.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Let's check in on Cornfield County for a moment for
a happy memory. And if you're thinking to yourself. Boy,
my grandmother would love this. Take her to the podcast
and share it with her.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
Well, it's a sad Saturday or Sunday if you prefer.
And as we join the Kolhynes of Cornfield County, we
find them involved in a minor sort of hunger strike.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
We listen as Lulu says, how long has it been
since we started our dock? It's almost been an hour. Now,
you better practice your setups. I'm practicing my setting right now.
I have felling over for all the most safety.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
He's probably figured out by now that our show is
highly informed by the old Louisiana hay Ride and shows
like he Haul and Jerry Klower And so we're just
a little different than all the rest. Not to say
we're better, We're just different. The marketplace should have all
sorts of products. You know, you don't just want catch
(29:10):
up mayonnaise and mustard one day, you want a Sri Racha.
I don't know what we are in all that mix,
but that's we endeavor to be different by celebrating who
we are.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
And what we bring to the table.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Lulu was a beautiful singer, and I'd like to share
a little of that and take it to the break.
But I got something to say in the meantime. Quot him,
I love that ham in organ. It's me in the
right spot.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
It's just.
Speaker 9 (29:40):
Take my head, leave me. Oh, let me say, I
am TI, I am weed.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
So, my sweet mother, who passed on September nineteenth, loved
Lulu Roman. My mother always carried a little more weight
than she liked, probably like a lot of us. And
you didn't have ozempic in her time. You just have
to starve yourself. And there were times, you know, when
when she landed my dad where she'd gotten thinner than usual,
(30:19):
and you know, so she struggled with her weight like
a lot of us, dude, And she always loved Lulu Roman.
And I think part of that was she admired that
Lulu pushed through and said, Yeah, I'm fat. What are
you gonna do about it? I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna dance,
I'm gonna get rich, I'm gonna have fun.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
So, what I would like to do at this point
is say that if you have lost someone that you loved,
as we close the show, I want you to think
good thoughts about that person and call someone that you
know in common with them and say, hey, you remember
all so and so. I just thought we'd talk about
their memory because it feels good to do. So take
(30:59):
it home.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Mean, oh my head, it's a fool.
Speaker 9 (31:07):
Take my hand, pricious Lord, need me hold with the draw.
Speaker 7 (31:22):
Appear and the night yours me, and the day is passed.
It's past and gold.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Red the river. Come home.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Mind, take my head mine, rucious Alona, marcious Lord, take
my hand, leave me everything you els has some for.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Thank you, and goodnight,
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Arry Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
It's Charlie from BlackBerry Smoke. I can feel a good
one coming on. It's the Michael Berry Show. Must Carry.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I didn't expect to talk bitcoin this.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Much, didn't.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
But think about that too.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
So you understand. If you are a bitcoin insider and
you're screaming and hollering, going, Michael, you got that wrong.
Yet you're not who this show is for. A sweet
lady named Bertha called up early in the show and asked,
what is bitcoin back by? If currency is backed by gold.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
What is it back by?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
And I made the point we're off the goal stander.
We've been off the goal center a long time. Our
currency is backed by nothing. We're just printing out paper
and the more we print, the more there is. And
it's backed by nothing. But I do the show on
almost every subject just so you know going forward, if
you think to yourself, he should know more about that
than that.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Many times I do.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I do the show for people who would not get
an answer to a question, but for on this show.
This is not a bitcoin convention. We're not going to
use acronyms and all those I get emails quite frequently
on certain matters, one of them being bitcoin, and so.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
It hit me.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Let me call my guy that I've called and asked
for advice a lot of times, and let's take it
down to a level that's understandable. You know that I
had a listener who, unbeknownst to me, spent seven hundred
thousand dollars investing in bitcoin and went through my show sponsor,
(02:01):
the Archpublic dot com, who's my guest right now, and
I didn't even know about it. This is a sophisticated
guy financially, he just wanted to you know, he's got gold,
he's got stocks, he's got this, he's got this, and
he wanted to go through bitcoin. So when I say
I want to have a conversation to a base level conversation,
that doesn't mean that the people who are paying attention
or idiots. It means that people might have a relatively
(02:22):
sophisticated understanding of equities and bonds and treasuries and even
gold and silver and commodities or memorabilia for that matter,
or real estate, but they just don't understand bitcoin. Now,
my question was Wall Street Journal today had two different stories.
One was Trump says that monetary policy through the FED,
(02:43):
and I hope he fires your own power.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I want to see that.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I want to see him. I want to see the
quote unquote constitutional crisis because if he appoints him, that
he can fire him. And I feel confident of that,
and I've always felt that long before this little tip.
But secondly, he says he wants to make the United
States a bitcoin superpower. So Tillmanholloway of the Archpublic dot
com is our guest. Tillan, you got four minutes left
(03:06):
in this segment. I'm turning off my mic. Could you
speak to those two issues.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
The reason why he's wanting to do this is because
the money printing has become a political weapon, and we
all see it.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
It's bills that are passed.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
With tremendous fat ninety percent fat to ten percent substance.
We've seen the corruption of pretty much every government agency
now being put to the test and being held accountable
through DOGE.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
So there's this incredible.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Waste that has been going on for so long because
the printing press is used, it's used for political purposes,
and bitcoin has no agenda. Bitcoin cannot be paid with
fake dollars in order to have loyalty to any one
(04:01):
party or any one person. It's a money and a
network that was built for the.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
People by the people.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And there's a saying in the bitcoin community that is,
you get the price that you deserve. If you are
a bleeding edge technologist and love economics and you got
in in twenty thirteen, you deserved a very very low price,
and you got that. And the price of bitcoin has
no cap. The price of real estate is become one
(04:32):
hundred and seventy trillion plus dollar market cap globally because
it's lendable, it's borrowed. You can borrow against real estate
very easily. You mentioned earlier that Trump is going to
make America a banking superpower on the back of bitcoin.
That means that he.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Has opened up and he's already told the.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Rules that used to prohibit banks from holding bitcoin on
a bounce sheet, he's rescinded those rules, so now bitcoin
can be held by banks. Banks can use it as
a base collateral denominator, which means they're going to start
to offer loans against bitcoin, and that's going to be
something that will drive the market of bitcoin into the
(05:19):
same type of stratosphere that the real estate market is.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
And so we're right now at about a one.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Point seven trillion.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Dollar market CAB and so if we go to real estate, we're.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Talking about over one hundred acts. From where we sit
right now. That sounds ridiculous, but if you understand economic principles,
then they continued to dig deeper and deeper into why
bitcoin has been successful for sixteen plus years in spite
of every government on the planet trying to take it
out at some point. It's been successful because it's pure economics,
(05:54):
it's pure math. And so this is a network that's
built on the conviction of people who understand the network
and want to contribute to it with computing power. And
now that network has become so powerful that everyone has
to recognize it, including traditional finance.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
And that's why you're.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Seeing products that are Wall Street products being built on
the back of something that is not a Wall Street product,
which is Bitcoin. It's it's completely off their network. Bitcoin
is not controllable on any one website or anyone exchange
or anyone country. It is available to anyone that wants
(06:31):
to participate in at any time they want to participate,
no rules, So you asked earlier, like past in the.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
Old days, how is wealth?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
How is it fair that if you're not invited to
the Facebook IPO that you don't get to participate in
that launch.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, bitcoin changes.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
That you can participate straight away anybody, no matter how.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
All right there, because I think people want to understand that.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I hope you were as interested in it as I am.
But hold on just sitting here listening therry. I want
to get right to this.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Why I'm trying to answer a lot of bitcoin questions
I get from listeners. And I'm not suggesting you run
out and invest in bitcoin. That's not what I'm saying
to do. That's not a sales picture or anything. I
like to know a lot of things about a lot
of things. I've had my gold guy on, Kenny Duncan
at us Coins in Houston to talk about gold and
commodities and why the price we hit an all time
(07:32):
high as it last week went up to about thirty
two hundred. I believe it was. I don't follow the
commodity prices closely, but I like to have a general idea. Heck,
I like to know what we sell them for at
a bushell. I do try to keep up with the
price of oil because I live in Houston, and for
our Houston and Tulsa and the like, listeners is a
(07:53):
big part of our lives. So I try to know
a little bit about everything. But many people in today's
world of volatility of the stock market, which is not
necessarily a bad thing by the way, that they're interested
in looking at at alternate, you know, diversifying. If you
put all your eggs in one basket, then that's a
(08:14):
dangerous thing. And if that's the stock market, then you
end up getting mad at Trump overdoing things that are
good for the overall country but might cost the stock
market for a minute, and then you're skewing your view
of his actions not based on whether they're good for
our country, but whether they're good for your stock portfolio today.
And that's a bad way to review our nation's policies
and wars and the like. So Tilman Holloway the Archpublic
(08:40):
dot Com, I don't think you were finished with your answer,
and I think it's an important question. So if you
could re ask it in a way that you deal
with this more than I do explaining this to people,
and I appreciate you taking the tone of not talking
over our head. I know that's hard for you to
do because you're an expert in it, but that's what
I want and that's what our listeners want.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Well.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
The value proposition of bitcoin is that it's for the people.
So if the value proposition can't be conveyed simply, then
it's failed its mission. And back to access financial systems.
When you have a central party that's in charge, you
have financial offerings with limited access based upon your net worth.
(09:25):
Here's the prime example. A certain segment of the US
population is relegated to be bankless. They have to go
to payday loans and cash their checks for their work.
Then you have the bankable folks. Then you have people
who can get loans with their signature. There's this wide
range of financial literacy and capabilities, and based upon where
(09:50):
you fall in that range, will you're limited to what
those offers those central parties are offering you?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Is it pertains?
Speaker 5 (09:56):
The access bit coin is completely different they bitcoin. If
you want to contribute to the network, if you don't
have money to buy bitcoin, get into mining. You can
literally take a computer and you can start contributing to
the network and it will pay you in bitcoin. Because
it values you. Your contribution means something. And if you have capital,
(10:17):
ask yourself the question, how many of my investments are
denominated outside of the US dollar? And is that a
good practice If I'm going to be diversified against weakness
in the US dollar?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
If if there's if.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
We're going to be printing five trillion dollars of capital
over the next few years, which we are, that's going
to drive the value of each dollar down. And so
where do you invest when the dollar is going down
in value?
Speaker 6 (10:44):
And ask yourself, is there something that I.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
Have exposure to that provides me the same benefits that
bitcoin provides me, that I have control over it. That
it does not move with the stock market. It's even
though the stock market's been getting crushed, it's up pointy
five percent over the last month. So it's inversely correlated.
It's not it's not like anything else.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
That you hold.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
And diversification, to your point earlier, is a good practice
for anyone.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
So if you don't own any you.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Know, start as small.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
As you want to. Don't don't like I.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
Tell people who are just starting out, and I would
tell this to a lot of youth.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
If you don't have the discretionary.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Income to invest in it on a monthly basis, or
buy some bitcoin then go do some odd jobs. You
use the sweat of your brow to just dabble in
it so that you can see if it's for you,
see the value proposition that it provides you. And once
you've used it, if it doesn't change your mind, then
you know you're that much smarter and you can speak
(11:45):
to it that much more intelligently. And it may not
be for you, but it's for a lot of people,
and Wall Street has said it's for them. And so
if you're seeing corporations adding it in much much larger
quantities and we've ever seen in history before, then one
would assume that the price would have to go up
with that demand. And that's why I think, you know,
(12:07):
it provides a risk reward ratio or a potential reward
that way outweighs the resk.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
President Trump is a master negotiator. You see that in
the Art of the Deal, and you see that in
everything he's ever done. You saw it politically, the deals
he would cut to win votes, the deals he would
cut to get support, the deals he cuts to get
Ukraine in Russia to the table, and he will get
a deal done, and I think he'll get a deal
done with Iran. And it's amazing how he does that,
(12:40):
and you see it, but it shouldn't be that amazing.
It's simple basic human instinct. I say that Trump operates
on a scale like if you're at the dog park
and you're watching dogs and how they interact. He understands
the atavistic nature of human beings at their very core.
Whether he has to bully you or seduce you, he
will do whatever it takes to get what he needs
(13:01):
out of you at that moment. But there is something
fascinating going on with President Trump, and at the very
time that he's criticizing the FED, and that's monetary policy, folks.
That's the people who churn out all this cash that
creates inflation over a period of time, and now in
order to deal with inflation, they've withheld the cash in
(13:25):
order to drive inflation down. But that means that you
can't borrow money to buy a house, a car, a furniture,
or any number of other things. And what he's doing,
this is Trump one oh one, This is Trump masterclass.
Is he says the FED is the reason for the problems,
not the tariff. The tariffs are not our problems. It's
the Fed and these interest rates. And in that sense
(13:47):
he's right, But he also says, and I'm going to
make us a crypto superpower, a bitcoin superpower. That's sort
of like, how many of you out there ever had
a situation, girls, ladies, I'm many of you out there
ever said you know, Tommy's not paying enough attention to me,
(14:10):
and I don't like that. So you know what I'm
gonna do. I'm gonna tell Tommy, hey, let's cool this
thing for a little bit.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
And you go.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
To his favorite hangout with his buddies, and you go
there with Billy, and he sees you with Billy. Now,
he might kill Billy, he might hate you forever and
never have anything to do with you, or he might
just say, you know what, I better put a ring
on it. I'm gonna end up losing her. You make
him a little jealous and show him you have an
(14:39):
alternative if you're if you're selling your house and you're
asking five point fifty for it and somebody comes in
at four eighty five and you go, not only will
I not accept that, but just so you know, we've
got another guy, and he's coming in to see it
tomorrow and it's his third showing and he's saying it's
going to be a full price offer. Okay, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we'll do that too, take.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It off the market.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Right now, Trump is using bitcoin as an alternative to cash,
to green money, and that's going to have an effect
that's going to drive up bitcoin. I don't make, I
don't make anyway, let's continue our conversational Moon can you
ask Tooman if you can hang.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
On here, But Michael Berry show what I didn't expect
to spend the whole show on bitcoin.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
But let's be honest, what Nancy Pelosi or Jasmine Crockett
said today or yesterday is not really meaningful in the
long term sense.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
It's really not. It's it's the inside.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Baseball of of who said Nana Nana boo boo. And
this is important. We're talking about financial systems and payment
systems and transactions and government involvement in it all. And
I don't want to be boring, and I don't want
to only talk about the things that we ought to
be talking about because they're the most important. But I
do think we ought to ever saw often try to
work them in and learn a little something.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
No.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Tillman Holloway is our guest. He is a friend, and
he has become a guy that I lean on for
advice on cryptocurrency's Bitcoin being primary among them.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
He was in the business. He's a very very sharp guy.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
And you know, I have lots of friends who are
former football players at a very high level. He was
a star for the University of Texas Longhorns as alignman,
you know, the alignmenter. You don't expect that guy to
be genius. I would not want to pit my IQ
against this fellow. I'll tell you that for sure. He's
done a lot in his life. He's very very smart,
and he was very interested in financial systems early on
(16:44):
in finance, and he started a company that has become
phenomenally successful called the archpublic dot com and it's a
software company where you can trade bitcoin based on prices
and all that. And he's explained the system to me
to the level apt Finally, after years of not caring,
(17:05):
paid attention to it, and now it's one of the
things that.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I read about every day.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Find it very very interesting, and hopefully some of you
do as well. Tom and I can't remember where we
left the last segment. I'm hoping you do because you're
younger than I am.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Yeah, well, I can tell you the volatility that you
spoke to earlier is an asset of this market and
we've seen the traditional markets have that same volatility, and
so what we've tried to do at by the way,
we've got you can go to the archpublic dot com
or archpublic dot com. We've got that domain as well,
and you can sign up for software that you control,
(17:44):
that you set the parameters to that will act on
your behalf when the market conditions present the parameters that
you've set into it. So if you say, you know what,
I want to buy one hundred and fifty dollars a
month of bitcoin and I want to do that when
the market did, you can absolutely set that instance up
and set it and forget it and it will work
(18:05):
on your behalf and do something that would take you
a lot of time, effort, and emotion to sit in
front of your computer and do.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
And so you're going to get a better outcome.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
Over the long haul. And that service is one hundred
percent free to use. We've created the software to help
people own bitcoin and to help people get into something
that over the last sixteen years.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
Has been somewhat difficult and.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Had a steep learning curve to get in. We try
to make it very, very simple. We will help set
up We have a concierge division that can help set
up instances and set up the software for you. But
once you set it up, it's a set it and
forget it and you look back over, you know, periods
of time and you're very happy with the fact that
you had something working on your palf. Because most of us,
(18:48):
with all the intentions that we have to you know,
get into something new, there's there's life that gets in
the way, and automated trading and setting up automated instances
that act.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
On year behalf is a real game changer.
Speaker 5 (19:02):
It just really opens your eyes to the fact that
you can be a market participant and not be an
expert and not sit in front of your computer every
morning and do calculations. It does it for you, and
we can show you how to use it.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Let me hold you there for a moment. So one
of my very dear friends is a guy named Ike Claypool,
and we played pickleball a lot together and our kids
are the same age, and he has a son at
ut and he has another son at Georgia. It's a
little older than our kids. And beautiful wife. They've been
married forever. He started at Arthur Anderson or Anderson Consulting.
(19:39):
He's an accounting guy, as a fundamentals guy, and he
became a day trader, I don't know, twenty five years ago.
He's a little bit younger than me, and that's what
he does. And he's a day trader of futures and
the like.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
And he is glued to.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
His computer when the stock market is open because he
has to execute trades. And we talk a lot about
executing trades in.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Time.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
They put in a big pipeline from Chicago to New
York because the difference between being able to execute your
trade in one eighth of a second or point one
of a second is could mean billions of dollars, right,
it's the speed, and we're talking about nano second differences. Well,
(20:31):
that's because when those trades are happening, because he wants
to hit this. He wants to sell at this price
or buy at this price, buy the dipton and sell later.
That is so important that it happened at that specific moment.
Can you speak to I've got a minute and a
half left. Can you speak to how what you do
is important because unlike the stock market, the bitcoin market
(20:53):
is open twenty four hours a day. So you set
that price and go to bed, and if it hits
that you buy or sell whatever you've instructed it to do.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I thought that was fascinating.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Yeah, that's right, And so we can work off of percentages.
So let's say you go to sleep at night and
you have a percentage in there of if the market
drops on a six hour candle of more than five percent,
I want to buy X number of dollars a bitcoin. Well,
you're asleep and you have that parameter set, and if
that event occurs, you wake up the next morning and
(21:24):
you're very happy because you bought the dip that you
could not otherwise have purchased. And so the market doesn't
care about when you want to be awake and when
you want to be at your computer. The market presents
opportunities to buy and accumulate all the time and when
you kind of least expect it. And so you having
automation sit there and wait for those events to take place,
(21:45):
is going to give you not only the opportunity to
actually enter those positions, but when you enter those positions,
to your point, automation interspositions faster than any human can
click the mouse and put in the prim So you're
getting the best price fills at those varying rates or
at those varying time points.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
So that really matter.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
And so over time those changes accumulate and they make
a big, big difference. And so we've got customers, like
I said, that are using our free product and doing
very very small incremental investing in bitcoin with our product,
and we help them do that. And then we also
have institutional clients and companies and people who have companies
(22:31):
that want to add bitcoin at a significant rate to
their balance sheet. Well, if you're behind the curve and
you don't own any bitcoin and you want to accumulate
a lot, there's risk in how many times you buy in.
So if you chose to put a million dollars in
the market today, well you're tied to the eighty.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Five thousand dollars price tag.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
If the price goes down to sixty five, you're down
a considerable percentage. Whereas if you had a schedule and
an automated schedule that took advantage of dips that got
that million dollars placed over a period of two months,
based upon when the opportunity has presented themselves. Then you're
gonna have a blended rate of entry versus a fixed
point of entry, and that's going to reduce your risk.
(23:14):
That's just a much more prudent way. It's called dollar
cost averaging. But this is an intelligent way to dollar
cost average and to do it without you having to
sit there and mail.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I'm up against a break, my man. I find what
you say fascinating. I hope others do as well. You
can find him at archpublic dot com or you can
always email me and I'll connect you to those folks. Hey,
thanks for making so much time with us to see
evening Bunny.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
I appreciate you real thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
It's called branding. It's the use of a song or
a sound at a certain time to create a mood.
There's something called a late motif in Broadway or West
End musicals, they would use that. If you've seen cats,
(24:03):
you know that there is the song for the jellical cats,
or there's there's memory that creates a certain mood, or
if you've seen what's the one with the half a
mask Phantom.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Of the Opera.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
You know that when you're in the underground layer, there
is a certain sort of tense, unsettling undertone to the
music that is consistent that puts you back into that
environment in your mindset back into that environment or avida.
All of those Sir Timothy Rice and Sir Anthony not
(24:42):
Sir Anthony Hocketts, Andrew Lloyd Webber, they are brilliant at
the use of what's called the late mortif. But sonic
branding means that this song should cue you to the
end of our show for the week. Now, we do
do a Saturday pod cast, So if you're cleaning out
the garage one of my favorite things to do on
(25:03):
a Saturday. I know it's boring, lame, it's true, or
gardening or riding your bike or whatever else you're doing,
you could put your headsets in and go to our
podcast and listen to Saturday podcast, which we make fresh.
It's not a rebroadcast of the show, but I thought
we'd use this last segment. I was thinking to my
mom earlier, and my mom was not a big girl necessarily,
(25:26):
but you'll understand why.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
In a moment.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
A star of he Haw, which I grew up loving,
named Bertha Louise Habel has died, and she went by
Lulu on the show. She's a big girl, and she
called herself the fat girl because that's how people remembered
her on the show. And I got to thinking, you know,
she went from Bertha to Lulu. If you're going to
(25:50):
pick a stage name, you went from one fat girl
name to another big girl name. Bertha Louise Habel was
born on May sixth, nineteen four forty six. She was
raised in an orphanage. Nineteen sixty four, she made a
living as Lulu Roman, the world's biggest Go Go dancer.
(26:11):
You know, you got to kind of half admire that
she was Lizo before Lizo was Lizo before there was
a whole body positive.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
You're fat, and that's wonderful thing.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
And buck Owens in all his genius and boy, he
was one hell of a businessman. He Conway twenty, some
of these guys were Charlie Pride, were really good businessmen.
Buck Owens discovered her and put her on he Haw,
and in nineteen seventy one, she was arrested on a
drug possession charge and sentenced to four years in jail,
and two years later she converted to Christ and was
(26:44):
able to win back her job on he Haw and
her singing career took off. That became her ministry. She
allowed herself to be used for good and she had
a very successful career in gospel music. It's a wonderful
story of redemption. She wasn't she wasn't formally trained, but
(27:04):
she would go on to release twelve albums. She would
record with Dolly Parton, George Jones, and others, and they
all wanted to record with her. She went into country
music sorry Country Gospel Hall of Fame in nineteen ninety
nine along with Andy Griffith. And so I'm going to
end the show with a little bit of with a
(27:25):
little bit of let's start with he Haul the All
jug Band. I'm an end the show on her positive note,
start with that.
Speaker 8 (27:32):
Ramon music today.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Good morning.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
If I were to start the line, oh, we're not
gonna go around starting rumors, because really.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
We're just not the gospel good for you. Ramon knows
it all right.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Let's check in on Cornfield County for a moment for
a happy memory. And if you're thinking to yourself. Boy,
my grandmother would love this. Take her to the podcast
and share it with her.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
Well, it's a sad Saturday or Sunday if you prefer.
And as we join the Kolhynes of Cornfield County, we
find them involved in a minor sort of hunger strike.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
We listen as Lulu says, how long has it been
since we started our dock? It's almost been an hour. Now,
you better practice your setups. I'm practicing my setting right now.
I have felling over for all the most safety.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
He's probably figured out by now that our show is
highly informed by the old Louisiana hay Ride and shows
like he Haul and Jerry Klower And so we're just
a little different than all the rest. Not to say
we're better, We're just different. The marketplace should have all
sorts of products. You know, you don't just want catch
(29:10):
up mayonnaise and mustard one day, you want a Sri Racha.
I don't know what we are in all that mix,
but that's we endeavor to be different by celebrating who
we are.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
And what we bring to the table.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Lulu was a beautiful singer, and I'd like to share
a little of that and take it to the break.
But I got something to say in the meantime. Quot him,
I love that ham in organ. It's me in the
right spot.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
It's just.
Speaker 9 (29:40):
Take my head, leave me. Oh, let me say, I
am TI, I am weed.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
So, my sweet mother, who passed on September nineteenth, loved
Lulu Roman. My mother always carried a little more weight
than she liked, probably like a lot of us. And
you didn't have ozempic in her time. You just have
to starve yourself. And there were times, you know, when
when she landed my dad where she'd gotten thinner than usual,
(30:19):
and you know, so she struggled with her weight like
a lot of us, dude, And she always loved Lulu Roman.
And I think part of that was she admired that
Lulu pushed through and said, Yeah, I'm fat. What are
you gonna do about it? I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna dance,
I'm gonna get rich, I'm gonna have fun.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
So, what I would like to do at this point
is say that if you have lost someone that you loved,
as we close the show, I want you to think
good thoughts about that person and call someone that you
know in common with them and say, hey, you remember
all so and so. I just thought we'd talk about
their memory because it feels good to do. So take
(30:59):
it home.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Mean, oh my head, it's a fool.
Speaker 9 (31:07):
Take my hand, pricious Lord, need me hold with the draw.
Speaker 7 (31:22):
Appear and the night yours me, and the day is passed.
It's past and gold.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Red the river. Come home.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Mind, take my head mine, rucious Alona, marcious Lord, take
my hand, leave me everything you els has some for.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Thank you, and goodnight,
