a new addition to the Tulsa Kine Samuel L. I
can't wait to see see that. I love him. I
love him and anything. And I like Tulsa King. I
think Tulsa King is awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Yeah, still one's pretty, He's still got He's still got
a fastball.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Let's see there was. One of my favorite things is
when somebody beats up somebody, like like Matt Damon did
in that Born movie where he rolls up a magazine.
He uses it like a club and beats that guy up.
Here's here's a guy, Daniel, Daniel sixty five. He's at
the Publics, which is a supermarket there in poor Charlotte, Florida.
(01:32):
He starts getting into it with two other old people.
They start yelling each it. By the way, I'm sixty seven,
so I can say that he's sixty five, so he'd
be a kid to me. But anyway, they get in
and they started having words. He'd had enough. He sprayed
the old guy with buck spray. He was right in
the kisser. Oh yeah, we'll get some of this. And
(01:53):
why don't you man?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I would think some over zealous district attorney might try
to charge him with like eco terrorism or something like that.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
You should be an attorney, you you think like an attorney. Man.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I was raised by him.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Unfortunately, my favorite actor was on Jimmy Kimmel the other night.
I don't like Jimmy Kimmel so much, but I love
Denzel Washington. By the way what he talked about, we
have been pronouncing his name wrong his entire career. It
is den Zol not Denzel Denzel Washington, and he corrected
(02:26):
Jimmy Kimmel and everybody. He said, you have been saying
it wrong. You know, I got an oscar and y'all
still been saying it wrong. It's Denzel Washington.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
He's had, he's had, you know, gravitas and uh, you know,
a pedestal of importance for decades. Now, why hasn't he
corrected us or corrected America. This happens a lot with
with athletes too, where all of a sudden, you know,
they're in year seven of their pro career and it's like, oh, no, no, no,
actually my name is uh it's Ricky, not Ricky or
(02:57):
you know.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah like that, Like, well, then why didn't you tell
us seven more?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, it's an easy fix, man. Here here's the most
fun states in America, according to a whole bunch of
indicators twenty six indicators they used in one of these surveys,
The most fun state in America Number five would be
New York State. Uh. Number four Illinois, as long as
you don't go to the south side of Chicago. You said, well, well,
(03:24):
last weekend it was over Labor Day. It was fifty
shot and in the mayor going it's a safe city.
I promise you fifty shot and seven killed and this.

you'd be a Cubs gain socks guy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
The Cubs seem too pure.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
I like I kind of I kind of like the
gritty and the grease and the grimy and.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
The the not winning. Yeah, the not winning. Yeah, Like
there's something about that that appeals to me. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Every year it's our year until it's a rebuilding year
halfway through it.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Uh. A movie that I love is that Kevin Costner
where they're picking football guys for the one of the draft,
The Draft. I watched Draft Day again. You know, I
watched it three times in one weekend. I just love
that movie.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
On what fun?
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, don't you know that in uh, what's her name? Gardener?
She's oh my god, she's just been She looks the
same for thirty years, Ben Afflex, he should just put
a gun in his mouth. Man after letting her get away.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yeah, the same as she has for thirty years. I
feel like I don't look the same as I did
three years ago.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
God, no, I look like my dad. Jesus Christ. It
went bad quick for me. But you know I was
already not all that attractive. But uh, man alive and
the last god late three years it's just really not
being good. Uh sorry.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Kind of money you're it's probably a little easier to
make your parents, I would assume.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Yeah, if you had money. I have no money, so
and I don't care either.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
There's that money I have. I'm not spending on my

but it's number three. I don't know why. Uh number
two Florida. You got a lot of Disney action there.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
And number one Kansas or Nebraska, take your pick.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
California. Believe it or not. So Yeah, California, how.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Do we not at least get top five there?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I mean, I don't know, I think it should. There's
a lot of fun stuff to do Dallas, Houston. I mean,
you got.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Even even if you don't want to do city stuff,
Big Ben like Royan Martha Alpine McDonald's observatory.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
You would give it, Uh, you give it sixty days,
you'll be able to get a Cowboys ticket or a
not Oilers.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
But you know Texans, Oh you give it, you give
it ninety days and someone might be paying you to
go to the game.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
And what was a joke? I put, uh put a
couple of tickets to see the Texans on the winch
a wiper, and I came back there with ten more tickets.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah, I missed the days where we could absolutely take
shot at the Texans from a from an elevated status
as a Cowboy fan.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
It feels like they are slipping away.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Well, I guess Los Angeles. You know, you got San
Francisco a lot of there's a lot of stuff to do.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Oh yeah, California gets a bad rap because of the
you know, the the urban the city centers of California.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But you I mean Jacob's ladder.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
We'll tell you. I know he's I know he's handsome,
but that governor's a nut job. He's literally a looney tune.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
They all are, they all are.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
But did that guy. I've watched him and I'm like,
man alive. I just he was giddy when the rich
houses burned down and he goes, I get to do
affordable housing and he's dancing around, and I'm like, you're
out of your mind, you lost your mind.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Talk about Los Angeles. Robert Munos now Robert here. He
has a large warehouse and he manages there in LA
and the homeless people had just taken over the neighborhood
and he said, you know they light fires. He said,
I've been attacked a half dozen times. They throw syringes
just down everywhere, which are you know, that's just dangerous
for everybody. Uh. So he put in six large speakers,
(07:36):
a full speaker system that plays nothing but crickets, and
it just it's just crickets. And he said, for some
reason that has they have completely left the area, The
homeless have gone away, and it's his crickets. And he said,
now my customers can come and get whatever they're getting
from him. I don't know what he sells or does,
but we've got.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
A couple of we got a couple of uh you know,
like convenience stores. Guys station over here that absolutely anytime,
as soon as the sun goes down, they blair classical music.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That keeps him out, Yeah, keeps him homeless.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Homeless seemingly has some impact.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
We had this total true story we had and I
told you about the guy that broke into the station
that time, and I'll tell it again because it's.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I love telling listeners every day.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, that's true. So, uh, we had the guy up there,
he's on Kiss or he was on Kiss Gossip. Greg
So at the towards the end there at the old
station on we were on South Lamar there, uh or
Congress South Congress, I'm sorry, right there at Penfield and
we'd get our share homeless there and uh he so
(08:44):
a guy I got there. You get here about five
thirty in the morning, and you know, we go on
at six and then Greg was there about the same time.
It was just me and him. We were the first
two to get there, and he came and found me
and we had a lounge at the front of the
station where they did concerts and stuff and a small
line Orange had couches, and he goes, Manavana catches him
in all the way and he said, uh, he said,
(09:06):
are you are? You did? Have you been here along?
And I go no, I was walking the door and
he goes, there's somebody in here. So he goes, they're
in the front. So we walk up there and I
see Greg's stay back, man, let's just you know, let's
just check it out. But we don't want to, you know. Uh.
And so there's a trophy cabinet there, stuff we had
(09:26):
won over the years, and then he grabs a trophy
for like a club. So if we get attacked, Greg's
gonna you know. And so we open that door and
Greg grabs. He's known for his drama, and I'll just
leave it at that. You can figure out whatever you
want to from that. Think think David from Shit's Creek
(09:48):
exactly good dramatic. Yeah, I don't know how to else
explain it. I love him, I love him to I
love David loves Shit's Creek. But that's that's him. He
throws was the curtain back and the guy is standing
there and he's got that trophy and I'm kind of
stepping back and he goes, oh my god. It runs.
(10:11):
It's so it's so funny that me and the guy,
the burglar both start laughing. I mean, we're laughing hard.
And we know this because we watched the security video
because at the time, Greg was on the Billy the
Kids show out of Dallas, you know, the satellite, So
Billy had me call up her and tell him the
whole deal, you know, and they had the video and
(10:32):
ever watches but he, oh my god, and he runs
with the trophy in his hand, and the guy and
I go, hey, you gotta leave, you know. And it
was cold and I had to throw him out, but
you know, he couldn't be in there. And then later
I saw the trophy and it was a trophy that
we had gotten for helping the homeless. Oh no, And
(10:52):
I was like, I'm glad he didn't hit the guy.
But wouldn't that not that had made national news man
that would have made with a homeless trope, beat the
homeless guy with the homeless trophy that you'd got from
helping homeless.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah, that would have been on the front page of Reddit,
Drudge Reports, all of.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Them Billy didn't know that, and he didn't know it.
Greg didn't know it. So when I went on Billy
Shall i told him and they were like, oh my god,
well we knew he got a participation trophy because he
certainly didn't do anything. If you watch a video, it's
him squealing and then high stepping and running off, you know,
while Madison you're gonna have to deal with the guy.
But well those were laughing.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Oh, you'll be fine, you'll handle it. That was great.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, you got this right. You're the old guy who
used to fight all the And I was like, yeah, okay,
but that was that was the most awesome. Uh, that
was the most awesome deal. Those are the kind of
stories you think about that when stuff happens. One time,
I was at the Elgin Hog Festival. You know they
have a big festival, the el Thin That's what it was. Anyway,
(11:57):
it was with the Sir Thomas like this of you
know whatever they are, The Knights of Columbus were those
kind of deals. Are the Trauma's over there and they
had a flatbed trailer sitting there and then they had
it was a stage and they had a microphone and
the guy goes I want you to make announcements, you know,
and here where zero lives for your two hours you're here.
And I said, okay, that's cool. So I get up
(12:18):
there and I got the microphone and I hear music
in the background. Well, on the other side of me
the stage is another flatbed trailer with a guy doing
an Elvis impression. I mean, the suit, the whole hell.
He's Elvis. Okay, So every time I broke into do
an announcement, it killed Elvis's mike, which pissed Elvis off
(12:41):
big time. Sure, yeah, and I think he had a crowd.
I couldn't see. I didn't even though they were back there.
So I'm like, hey, we got, you know, on candy
apples up here, so you know, come get candy apples.
And all of a sudden, this Elvis comes up on
stage and I'm like, what the hell is this deal?
And what I didn't you know? I intruded him by
not he was getting ready to go, and he goes
(13:04):
he never broke character. Oh god, he goes, hey man, Hey,
I'm over here on this side trying to do my
a hack man, And every time you talk, the microphone
kills my mic Man I'm like riding middle song and.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
You kill my mic right in the middle of jelal.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah, you know, And then I cut in with, hey,
we got you know, you got to come ride the
donkey over here or whatever.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
And so so he's mad now so and I'm not mad.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
It is of course I start laughing because you shall
let that me is Elvis, because this is just absurd. Now,
I don't care who you are. If someone starts talking
to you in an Elvis or yelling at you in
an Elvis, you immediately start answering as Elvis. You can't
(13:55):
help yourself. So then I start going and I'll tell
you what. I sorry. I didn't mean to. You know,
I got made me do these announcements, and he gave
me a microphone.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
I know his good here and so then he thought
I was mocking h so, you know, and all I
can think about the head this big giant collar on,
you know, with his suit, and he was sweating real bad.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
He's big fat Elvis.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
He's like the Vegas.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
Yeah, yes that was And uh so now anything's I'm
marking me and this is Elvis giving ready to kick
my ass.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
And the only thing I can think of is I'm
going to have the all time story topper. And then
I actually, okay, I'm guilty of this. I said, I
don't want no trouble. I know you know karate, oh no,
which thoroughly pissed him off. Well, then the Sirtoma guy
(14:47):
got in between us and he and then he ran
him off of the stage, you know, And I said, well,
when you know, when he let him finish and I'll
do the announcement. He goes Elvis. It's like the announcement.
I'm running the deal. He's just doing what we tell
him to do. So there you go.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
That was a that was you don't want to mess
with Elvis. That's a that's a follow agent as given the.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Back a agent, right man.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Yeah, as he was, as he was so loaded on
pills in that picture.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Learn karate in three days if you didn't know that,
he got his black belt in three days.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And and rest in power King.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah yeah, Now, Sonny and Red they really did know karate.
You didn't want to mess with either with either one.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
You want to joke, Oh no, we almost made it
through a whole week.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I have two Elvis's joke. Willie Nelson told me this one.
What was Elvis's last words.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I don't know what were Elvis's last words? Horn? Okay? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:51):
And then I don't remember who told me this one,
but it was Elvis going. What was Elvis's last word?
The last words Sonny read, I'll be backing the man.
I gotta go take a ship.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
One of the most Especially, I'll tell you this, when
your grandma is the number one Elvis fan.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Oh in the entire world.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yeah, you're a kid, and you learn that Elvis died
while on the toilet I come home. Yeah, buddy, those things,
those two, those two scenarios don't play well together because
I got in so much trouble for the.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Over hell king bad on the throne, and yet you
just you just had a field day people like you.
I saw him in concert, and I'll never Yeah, I
saw him in concert in his last year in seventy six.
He came, he sold out a show ten thousand people,
and then the next so he said, let's do two shows.
And so I was able to get two tickets for
(16:47):
the next one. And uh, his voice was still incredible.
And this was way before Million Vanilli. So I mean,
this guy was singing it and it was just I
never forget this. You get a cold chip when he
comes out. I've seen them. Think about any concerts I've
seen and even been at, you know, as the MC
or whatever. When he came out, it was as if
(17:09):
there were so many flashbulbs. It's like they turn the
lights back on. And so he's got his cape on
and he walks to the side of the stage and
he takes a pose and he holds it for everybody
to get their pictures. I mean, he's like, you know,
and then he lumbers over there to the other side
and takes his pose and holds it, you know, with
his arms up with like victory sign. Then he walks
(17:30):
to the middle and he does it again and holds
the pose for a minute. And then there's one guy.
All he does is just put scars around his neck
so that he can hand these scars to these women
as he's working. And these women are going crazy. You
know they're older, but they're losing their minds, you know,
most important job on the tour right there. But he
had the last song that he had just had come
(17:50):
out was called Hurt, and he sings Hurt and just
nails it is incredible And I'll never forget this. He goes, y'all,
won't we do that again? And everybody jeers and he
sings hurt a second time exactly the same, and it
was just like, oh my god, it's just killing it,
you know. But it was the best concert I've ever
(18:10):
seen in my life, a real like a real superstar.
And you gotta remember, I've been to George Strait fifty times,
but that Elvis show was that was the show. Then
he died the next year. He died in seventy seven.
That would have been seventy six or into seventy six, So.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
And set up set up a future generation of young
shithead kids to their grandma with jokes about him dying
on the toilet.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
No respect. That's how we're going to end the show
with booming that no respect for the King Elvis. Let's
see y'all next week.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
The the not winning. Yeah, the not winning. Yeah, Like

Speaker 1 (04:37):
God, no, I look like my dad. Jesus Christ. It

already not all that attractive. But uh, man alive and
the last god late three years it's just really not
being good. Uh sorry.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Kind of money you're it's probably a little easier to

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Yeah, if you had money. I have no money, so
and I don't care either.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
There's that money I have. I'm not spending on my

but it's number three. I don't know why. Uh number

And number one Kansas or Nebraska, take your pick.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
California. Believe it or not. So Yeah, California, how.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Do we not at least get top five there?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I mean, I don't know, I think it should. There's
a lot of fun stuff to do Dallas, Houston. I mean,
you got.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Even even if you don't want to do city stuff,
Big Ben like Royan Martha Alpine McDonald's observatory.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
You would give it, Uh, you give it sixty days,
you'll be able to get a Cowboys ticket or a
not Oilers.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
But you know Texans, Oh you give it, you give
it ninety days and someone might be paying you to
go to the game.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
And what was a joke? I put, uh put a
couple of tickets to see the Texans on the winch
a wiper, and I came back there with ten more tickets.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah, I missed the days where we could absolutely take
shot at the Texans from a from an elevated status
as a Cowboy fan.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
It feels like they are slipping away.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Well, I guess Los Angeles. You know, you got San
Francisco a lot of there's a lot of stuff to do.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Oh yeah, California gets a bad rap because of the
you know, the the urban the city centers of California.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But you I mean Jacob's ladder.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
We'll tell you. I know he's I know he's handsome,
but that governor's a nut job. He's literally a looney tune.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
They all are, they all are.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
But did that guy. I've watched him and I'm like,
man alive. I just he was giddy when the rich
houses burned down and he goes, I get to do
affordable housing and he's dancing around, and I'm like, you're
out of your mind, you lost your mind.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Talk about Los Angeles. Robert Munos now Robert here. He
has a large warehouse and he manages there in LA
and the homeless people had just taken over the neighborhood
and he said, you know they light fires. He said,
I've been attacked a half dozen times. They throw syringes
just down everywhere, which are you know, that's just dangerous
for everybody. Uh. So he put in six large speakers,
(07:36):
a full speaker system that plays nothing but crickets, and
it just it's just crickets. And he said, for some
reason that has they have completely left the area, The
homeless have gone away, and it's his crickets. And he said,
now my customers can come and get whatever they're getting
from him. I don't know what he sells or does,
but we've got.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
A couple of we got a couple of uh you know,
like convenience stores. Guys station over here that absolutely anytime,
as soon as the sun goes down, they blair classical music.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That keeps him out, Yeah, keeps him homeless.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Homeless seemingly has some impact.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
We had this total true story we had and I
told you about the guy that broke into the station
that time, and I'll tell it again because it's.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I love telling listeners every day.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, that's true. So, uh, we had the guy up there,
he's on Kiss or he was on Kiss Gossip. Greg
So at the towards the end there at the old
station on we were on South Lamar there, uh or
Congress South Congress, I'm sorry, right there at Penfield and
we'd get our share homeless there and uh he so
(08:44):
a guy I got there. You get here about five
thirty in the morning, and you know, we go on
at six and then Greg was there about the same time.
It was just me and him. We were the first
two to get there, and he came and found me
and we had a lounge at the front of the
station where they did concerts and stuff and a small
line Orange had couches, and he goes, Manavana catches him
in all the way and he said, uh, he said,
(09:06):
are you are? You did? Have you been here along?
And I go no, I was walking the door and
he goes, there's somebody in here. So he goes, they're
in the front. So we walk up there and I
see Greg's stay back, man, let's just you know, let's
just check it out. But we don't want to, you know. Uh.
And so there's a trophy cabinet there, stuff we had
(09:26):
won over the years, and then he grabs a trophy
for like a club. So if we get attacked, Greg's
gonna you know. And so we open that door and
Greg grabs. He's known for his drama, and I'll just
leave it at that. You can figure out whatever you
want to from that. Think think David from Shit's Creek
(09:48):
exactly good dramatic. Yeah, I don't know how to else
explain it. I love him, I love him to I
love David loves Shit's Creek. But that's that's him. He
throws was the curtain back and the guy is standing
there and he's got that trophy and I'm kind of
stepping back and he goes, oh my god. It runs.
(10:11):
It's so it's so funny that me and the guy,
the burglar both start laughing. I mean, we're laughing hard.
And we know this because we watched the security video
because at the time, Greg was on the Billy the
Kids show out of Dallas, you know, the satellite, So
Billy had me call up her and tell him the
whole deal, you know, and they had the video and
(10:32):
ever watches but he, oh my god, and he runs
with the trophy in his hand, and the guy and
I go, hey, you gotta leave, you know. And it
was cold and I had to throw him out, but
you know, he couldn't be in there. And then later
I saw the trophy and it was a trophy that
we had gotten for helping the homeless. Oh no, And
(10:52):
I was like, I'm glad he didn't hit the guy.
But wouldn't that not that had made national news man
that would have made with a homeless trope, beat the
homeless guy with the homeless trophy that you'd got from
helping homeless.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah, that would have been on the front page of Reddit,
Drudge Reports, all of.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Them Billy didn't know that, and he didn't know it.
Greg didn't know it. So when I went on Billy
Shall i told him and they were like, oh my god,
well we knew he got a participation trophy because he
certainly didn't do anything. If you watch a video, it's
him squealing and then high stepping and running off, you know,
while Madison you're gonna have to deal with the guy.
But well those were laughing.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Oh, you'll be fine, you'll handle it. That was great.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, you got this right. You're the old guy who
used to fight all the And I was like, yeah, okay,
but that was that was the most awesome. Uh, that
was the most awesome deal. Those are the kind of
stories you think about that when stuff happens. One time,
I was at the Elgin Hog Festival. You know they
have a big festival, the el Thin That's what it was. Anyway,
(11:57):
it was with the Sir Thomas like this of you
know whatever they are, The Knights of Columbus were those
kind of deals. Are the Trauma's over there and they
had a flatbed trailer sitting there and then they had
it was a stage and they had a microphone and
the guy goes I want you to make announcements, you know,
and here where zero lives for your two hours you're here.
And I said, okay, that's cool. So I get up
(12:18):
there and I got the microphone and I hear music
in the background. Well, on the other side of me
the stage is another flatbed trailer with a guy doing
an Elvis impression. I mean, the suit, the whole hell.
He's Elvis. Okay, So every time I broke into do
an announcement, it killed Elvis's mike, which pissed Elvis off
(12:41):
big time. Sure, yeah, and I think he had a crowd.
I couldn't see. I didn't even though they were back there.
So I'm like, hey, we got, you know, on candy
apples up here, so you know, come get candy apples.
And all of a sudden, this Elvis comes up on
stage and I'm like, what the hell is this deal?
And what I didn't you know? I intruded him by
not he was getting ready to go, and he goes
(13:04):
he never broke character. Oh god, he goes, hey man, Hey,
I'm over here on this side trying to do my
a hack man, And every time you talk, the microphone
kills my mic Man I'm like riding middle song and.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
You kill my mic right in the middle of jelal.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah, you know, And then I cut in with, hey,
we got you know, you got to come ride the
donkey over here or whatever.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
And so so he's mad now so and I'm not mad.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
It is of course I start laughing because you shall
let that me is Elvis, because this is just absurd. Now,
I don't care who you are. If someone starts talking
to you in an Elvis or yelling at you in
an Elvis, you immediately start answering as Elvis. You can't
(13:55):
help yourself. So then I start going and I'll tell
you what. I sorry. I didn't mean to. You know,
I got made me do these announcements, and he gave
me a microphone.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
I know his good here and so then he thought
I was mocking h so, you know, and all I
can think about the head this big giant collar on,
you know, with his suit, and he was sweating real bad.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
He's big fat Elvis.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
He's like the Vegas.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
Yeah, yes that was And uh so now anything's I'm
marking me and this is Elvis giving ready to kick
my ass.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
And the only thing I can think of is I'm
going to have the all time story topper. And then
I actually, okay, I'm guilty of this. I said, I
don't want no trouble. I know you know karate, oh no,
which thoroughly pissed him off. Well, then the Sirtoma guy
(14:47):
got in between us and he and then he ran
him off of the stage, you know, And I said, well,
when you know, when he let him finish and I'll
do the announcement. He goes Elvis. It's like the announcement.
I'm running the deal. He's just doing what we tell
him to do. So there you go.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
That was a that was you don't want to mess
with Elvis. That's a that's a follow agent as given the.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Back a agent, right man.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Yeah, as he was, as he was so loaded on
pills in that picture.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Learn karate in three days if you didn't know that,
he got his black belt in three days.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And and rest in power King.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah yeah, Now, Sonny and Red they really did know karate.
You didn't want to mess with either with either one.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
You want to joke, Oh no, we almost made it
through a whole week.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I have two Elvis's joke. Willie Nelson told me this one.
What was Elvis's last words.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I don't know what were Elvis's last words? Horn? Okay? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:51):
And then I don't remember who told me this one,
but it was Elvis going. What was Elvis's last word?
The last words Sonny read, I'll be backing the man.
I gotta go take a ship.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
One of the most Especially, I'll tell you this, when
your grandma is the number one Elvis fan.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Oh in the entire world.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yeah, you're a kid, and you learn that Elvis died
while on the toilet I come home. Yeah, buddy, those things,
those two, those two scenarios don't play well together because
I got in so much trouble for the.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Over hell king bad on the throne, and yet you
just you just had a field day people like you.
I saw him in concert, and I'll never Yeah, I
saw him in concert in his last year in seventy six.
He came, he sold out a show ten thousand people,
and then the next so he said, let's do two shows.
And so I was able to get two tickets for
(16:47):
the next one. And uh, his voice was still incredible.
And this was way before Million Vanilli. So I mean,
this guy was singing it and it was just I
never forget this. You get a cold chip when he
comes out. I've seen them. Think about any concerts I've
seen and even been at, you know, as the MC
or whatever. When he came out, it was as if
(17:09):
there were so many flashbulbs. It's like they turn the
lights back on. And so he's got his cape on
and he walks to the side of the stage and
he takes a pose and he holds it for everybody
to get their pictures. I mean, he's like, you know,
and then he lumbers over there to the other side
and takes his pose and holds it, you know, with
his arms up with like victory sign. Then he walks
(17:30):
to the middle and he does it again and holds
the pose for a minute. And then there's one guy.
All he does is just put scars around his neck
so that he can hand these scars to these women
as he's working. And these women are going crazy. You
know they're older, but they're losing their minds, you know,
most important job on the tour right there. But he
had the last song that he had just had come
(17:50):
out was called Hurt, and he sings Hurt and just
nails it is incredible And I'll never forget this. He goes, y'all,
won't we do that again? And everybody jeers and he
sings hurt a second time exactly the same, and it
was just like, oh my god, it's just killing it,
you know. But it was the best concert I've ever
(18:10):
seen in my life, a real like a real superstar.
And you gotta remember, I've been to George Strait fifty times,
but that Elvis show was that was the show. Then
he died the next year. He died in seventy seven.
That would have been seventy six or into seventy six, So.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
And set up set up a future generation of young
shithead kids to their grandma with jokes about him dying
on the toilet.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
No respect. That's how we're going to end the show
with booming that no respect for the King Elvis. Let's
see y'all next week.
