(03:59):
to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, what to ninety percent

Speaker 4 (04:08):

money than they earn.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
John you hang on all let you hook you up, buddy,
all right, right now, it is your news right on
the other side, it is our last remembering Rayford. Second,
how about that.
Speaker 12 (05:52):
H h.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Good morning to make sus on the radio. Well, this
time of year, Rachel remembers what it was like to
have to ride in Christmas parade and taking a nip
on the float.
Speaker 13 (06:38):
Here we go again, Christmas crowding out Thanksgiving. Towns get
up their Christmas decorations right after the Begawenis have littered
the streets with candy wrappers. Stores have had their Christmas
theme going even before that. And there's so much stuff
in the department stores that you can hardly move through
the aisles. A horn of plenty corn, you KOBEA what
(06:59):
are they going to do with all that stuff? After
the first of the year, every town pushes their Christmas
parade back and back to get people in the spirit.
Every school and club business has what is jokingly called
a float. Used to be these were ornate constructions on
top of a flatbed truck pulled by a tractor. Now
it seems that anyone with a pickup truck and a
(07:19):
trailer can put a group of people on the trailer
dressed in center gear, little kids and newba teenagers.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Legs so cold they look blue.
Speaker 13 (07:28):
At least, the television stations have apparently stopped getting into
every parade within their coverage area. When I was anchoring
television news, I had to ride on one of those
floats with all the anchors and co anchors standing up
there waving in the coal. I kept a half pint
of whiskey in my overcoat pocket and would duck down
behind the chimney on the float and take a sway
(07:49):
two overcoat pockets, two pints of whiskey. Then I don't
have to do that anymore. Ride in the parades, that
is for the John Boy and Billy Show, Good.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Morning, make shows on the radio. All right, turn on
the Zoom.
Speaker 14 (08:31):

Mary Jane.

Speaker 15 (08:47):
Alright, alright, right, okay, I'm good. I've just been sitting
around the house trying to stay warm thinking about stuff.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
You want to hear it?
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Who we kid? And you got nothing but time?
Speaker 15 (09:07):
Now I was thinking about it. Everywhere is walking distance
if you have the time, y'all.
Speaker 5 (09:19):

Speaker 15 (09:21):
On the other hand, I'm okay, dude.

Speaker 5 (09:57):

Speaker 4 (10:04):
Ah, you don't.
Speaker 15 (10:11):
You don't need a parachute to go sky diamond. You
need a parachute to go sky diamond. Twice I accuse
my boyfriend of being too immature. Then he told me
to get out of his fort. You like science, John boy.
(10:36):
I got a scientific fact. If you took all the
veins from your body and laid them end to end,
you die. Okay, here, I wish I could pass this
to you.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
Why do you never see elephants hiding behind trees? Is
because they're so good at it?

This is Santa Claus and I'm going over my naughty
and nice list, and I'm disappointed to see Jackie back
on the naughty list again. Well, to be honest, she's
never been off it. It looks like Santa will be
bringing her the usual nice spanking. I'll be there, say twelve.

Good morning, big shows on the radio. Well, there's a
little town north of Charlotte, North Carolina, m Caddonville. They
light up the entire town. We been doing it for
years and years. That's very awesome. Man, what we got
here is going back by the way I was thinking
about this. This is one of the first bits we did,
a very early bit, the John Boy and Billy broadcasting
(14:38):
a Burger Bigie was one of the first. And that's
what I'll remind me to play that the last show
before Christmas. I want to get right to damn Burger
Biggie was one of our first we ever did. All right,
but right here, yeah, m Caddonville, dog Gone. We got
to thinking what if it was like in the Christmas
tree back in the day, when one light would burn out,
they all would wouldn't come off.
Speaker 13 (14:58):
Remember that.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Sure that'd be no worry.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
We got our best men on it.
Speaker 14 (15:03):
Christmas a time for laughter, fun, merriment, and terror.
Speaker 16 (15:10):

in town, one by one until we find the problem.

turn it over to Jeff billders Well.
Speaker 6 (16:47):
Since I can't be certain if I'll be able to
be here for the final show, I've asked for a
chance to say a few last words. It's hard to believe,
but for the last twenty five years this has been
my home, an old, washed up B movie actor giving
a second chance. I can't really conceive of it being over.
I really can't look. Do I think the old gal
still has some life left?
Speaker 11 (17:06):
Dinner?
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Absolutely I do. That's not my call. The boys have
earned a rest, even if some of them have been
resting from the beginning. John Boy, to all assembled, I
am and will always be ever grateful. I consider you
all family. Isn't that sad? I miss and remember fondly
(17:26):
all the ones we've lost along the way. I miss
talking old movies with Rayford, Mario, Sloopy, Bradshaw, Spanky, Henry Cato,
the General, Tim Wilson, James, Gregory, Vick, Henley, Terry Boucham,
Steve the former Idiot Intern, and our beloved Pearl, gone
but never forgotten. And thank you to all of our listeners.
(17:49):
Many of you have reached out to me with text
and emails in the last few weeks, and your words
have touched my heart. They truly have. Thank you, especially
to the ones who bonded with me over the loss
of their beloved pets. It is a difficult thing to
share such profound grief with a stranger, and I assure
you why I wept along with you. I will always
consider two Old Dogs the best single thing I've ever written.
(18:11):
Please stay in touch with your animal stories tales from
the Compound on Facebook. I'd appreciate it. So now, what
what is an aging, washed up B movie actor and
former sixth Wheel on a nationally syndicated radio show to do.
I'll be five. I've had a few broadcasters reach out
(18:32):
to me. Some of our affiliates inquired about providing bits,
Come on, I mean that chapter is closed. I found
several creative outlets that are already in the works, social
media hijinks. I've got two new books coming out, some
YouTube channels, and at some point there will be a
Tales from the Compound podcast, but it more likely will
be a weekly radio show. It's all in the works
(18:52):
as we speak. I'm also a content consultant, helping small
businesses to develop and create social media videos. Basically have
to do something creative. I'd love to do some more theater,
but the first time, some twenty something Entreenu tells me
her preferred pronouns, I'd probably bust the spring and wind
up in the Who's Go. But since my wife became disabled,
(19:14):
I can no longer travel for TV and movies. I
have way too many animals that count on me every
single day, and their needs outweigh my desire to perform
and scene. So I'll do what I can when I can,
but it will be something. I'm an actor, Damn you
not a movie star. Well, I guess that's it. This
(19:35):

Story with Carl Childer.
Speaker 14 (37:21):
And Now it's story time with your host, Carl Chilters.
Speaker 11 (37:27):
We used to watch this movie up the Nervous Hospital
every year about this time, called the Christmas Story Bench,
A story about Christmas. I can tell you about it
if you own me too. Oh oh yeah, yeah, sure,
a lot of gunn anyway, Well, sir, it's all about
(37:48):
this chubby little boy. Wears them big old glasses. Make
him look kindly like a bug Christmas just around the
corner of the arm. Chubby little bug boy, he got
his heart blump set on this here fancy air rifle.
Some folks calls it a bb gun. I called it
an air rifle. He spends a great deal of time
thinking about it. Yet Mama don't want him to get
(38:11):
it on the counter. She don't want him to shoot
his eyebawl out.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Of his head.
Speaker 11 (38:16):
That little chubby bug boy, he got him a daddy.
He's a hard working man, makes a good wage. He
used to be the nights talker once upon a time,
but he got him a different job.
Speaker 19 (38:30):
Now.
Speaker 11 (38:31):
He likes to cuss out the furnace and the neighbor's houndogs.
That chubby little bug boy, Danny. He falls in love
with a lamp looks like a lady's leg. We had
a fellow like that up the Nervous. I reckon it
(38:54):
party special on accounty. It comes from a plate called
Fragili like that's north of Millsburg Summers. Well, sir, that
little chubby bug boy, he got him a little brother,
no bigger than a squirrel. He likes to rub food
in his hair and sit under the sink and drinking milk.
(39:16):
We had one of them up, the nervous chubby bug boy.
He got some friends are hi. One of them sticks
his tongue to the flag pole and the other young's
runoff summers. That's what youngins did for fun, for they
were video games. This movie, it's even got a bad guy,
(39:39):
some old plug, ugly boy with yellow eyes and green teeth.
He kind of crowled a little bug boy, and his
friends makes board of him quite a bit. He's no
count chubby little bug boy. He finally gets a belly
full of yellow eyes, nonsense and plumb whoops the tar
out of him all the time, cursing him out. Like
(39:59):
I said, Tayler, some folks call it swear, and I
call it Kirsten whoops him so bad, little bug boy
Mama has to pull him off. She takes him home,
makes me a bar soap. Don't seem like a way
to pat him on the back for sticking up for himself.
But he didn't need no distractions thereon.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
It's close to Christmas.
Speaker 11 (40:20):
He's concentrating on getting that air rifle. He even went
to that big store downtown to campaign old Santa Claus himself.
But this weren't the real Santa Claus. Seems like this
Santy Claus was into the brown liquor. No sure, the
real Santa claus wouldn't kill that chubby little bug Boy's
dream of that air rifle him. He told him he
(40:43):
was gonna shoot his eye out, just like everyone else thought.
Mister mill Cox said, they call that a conspiracy. He
listens to late night radio quite a bit. Then Santa Claus,
he kicked that chubby little bug boy in his big
old head and he fell down the slide right into
(41:04):
them folks from the Wizard of Oz. I didn't understand
that part of it. By now, chubby little bug boy
he was seeing red. Seemed like a whole dad gum
world was again hi. Come Christmas morning, they ain't nowhere rifle.
(41:24):
He does get this Easter bunny outfit from his fistrant
it Daddy makes him take it off on a kind
of makes him look funny anybody. After all he'd been through,
Chubby Little bug Boy was having a pretty sad Christmas.
(41:45):
Then his daddy he finds his present of hiding in
the corner. It's that dad gum air rifle. He runs
outside starts shooting. Danged if he didn't shoot his eyeball
plumb out of his head. Good Mama, she come running
out yelling, what you shot? Tibe all out of your head?
Speaker 3 (42:06):
For her?
Speaker 11 (42:06):
What's shoe tibe all out of your head?
Speaker 6 (42:07):
Fur?
Speaker 11 (42:11):
Chubby Little bug Boy goes crazy. He bandages up his
head and goes out looking for blood. First, he finds
that no count store Sandy Claus and m Elves and
unloads his air rifle on him. It didn't break the skin,
but they know they've been at it. And he tracked
down Old Yellow Eyes. He whooped the tar out of
(42:32):
them before, but I reckon that didn't satisfy that Chubby
Little bug boy none. He pointed that fancy air rifle
and Old Yellow Eyes, but he was out of ammunition,
so he turned that air rifle around and commenced to
club that other no count young and killed him. And
(42:54):
Daddy was so takled to find out his boy weren't
no sissy. He gave the Christmas turkey to the neighbor dogs.
You took the family out for some Chinese food. Morel
of the story. Air rifle can kill a Feller if
you know how to use them. No Plus, you might
get a bullet chop suway from your daddy. Oh the end.

Concentrated sources of the nourishment.
Speaker 4 (03:34):

Jackie sends it to Tennessee or Georgia.
Speaker 11 (05:26):
Hopefully Georgia.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
John you hang on all let you hook you up, buddy,
all right, right now, it is your news right on
the other side, it is our last remembering Rayford. Second,
how about that.
Speaker 12 (05:52):
H h.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Good morning to make sus on the radio. Well, this
time of year, Rachel remembers what it was like to
have to ride in Christmas parade and taking a nip
on the float.
Speaker 13 (06:38):
Here we go again, Christmas crowding out Thanksgiving. Towns get
up their Christmas decorations right after the Begawenis have littered
the streets with candy wrappers. Stores have had their Christmas
theme going even before that. And there's so much stuff
in the department stores that you can hardly move through
the aisles. A horn of plenty corn, you KOBEA what
(06:59):
are they going to do with all that stuff? After
the first of the year, every town pushes their Christmas
parade back and back to get people in the spirit.
Every school and club business has what is jokingly called
a float. Used to be these were ornate constructions on
top of a flatbed truck pulled by a tractor. Now
it seems that anyone with a pickup truck and a
(07:19):
trailer can put a group of people on the trailer
dressed in center gear, little kids and newba teenagers.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Legs so cold they look blue.
Speaker 13 (07:28):
At least, the television stations have apparently stopped getting into
every parade within their coverage area. When I was anchoring
television news, I had to ride on one of those
floats with all the anchors and co anchors standing up
there waving in the coal. I kept a half pint
of whiskey in my overcoat pocket and would duck down
behind the chimney on the float and take a sway
(07:49):
two overcoat pockets, two pints of whiskey. Then I don't
have to do that anymore. Ride in the parades, that
is for the John Boy and Billy Show, Good.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Morning, make shows on the radio. All right, turn on
the Zoom.
Speaker 14 (08:31):
And now deep thoughts with Zach the Weed Guy's girlfriend
Mary Jane.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
You want to hear it?
Speaker 4 (09:04):

Speaker 15 (09:07):
Now I was thinking about it. Everywhere is walking distance

Ah, you don't.
Speaker 15 (10:11):
You don't need a parachute to go sky diamond. You
need a parachute to go sky diamond. Twice I accuse
my boyfriend of being too immature. Then he told me
to get out of his fort. You like science, John boy.
(10:36):
I got a scientific fact. If you took all the
veins from your body and laid them end to end,
you die. Okay, here, I wish I could pass this

Speaker 8 (13:34):

Good morning, big shows on the radio. Well, there's a
little town north of Charlotte, North Carolina, m Caddonville. They
light up the entire town. We been doing it for
years and years. That's very awesome. Man, what we got
here is going back by the way I was thinking
about this. This is one of the first bits we did,
a very early bit, the John Boy and Billy broadcasting
(14:38):
a Burger Bigie was one of the first. And that's
what I'll remind me to play that the last show
before Christmas. I want to get right to damn Burger
Biggie was one of our first we ever did. All right,
but right here, yeah, m Caddonville, dog Gone. We got
to thinking what if it was like in the Christmas
tree back in the day, when one light would burn out,
they all would wouldn't come off.
Speaker 13 (14:58):
Remember that.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Sure that'd be no worry.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
We got our best men on it.
Speaker 14 (15:03):

Speaker 16 (15:10):
Golly gee whiz aren't these lights beautiful?
Speaker 12 (15:13):

turn it over to Jeff billders Well.
Speaker 6 (16:47):
Since I can't be certain if I'll be able to
be here for the final show, I've asked for a
chance to say a few last words. It's hard to believe,
but for the last twenty five years this has been
my home, an old, washed up B movie actor giving
a second chance. I can't really conceive of it being over.
I really can't look. Do I think the old gal
still has some life left?
Speaker 11 (17:06):
Dinner?
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Absolutely I do. That's not my call. The boys have
earned a rest, even if some of them have been
resting from the beginning. John Boy, to all assembled, I
am and will always be ever grateful. I consider you
all family. Isn't that sad? I miss and remember fondly
(17:26):
all the ones we've lost along the way. I miss
talking old movies with Rayford, Mario, Sloopy, Bradshaw, Spanky, Henry Cato,
the General, Tim Wilson, James, Gregory, Vick, Henley, Terry Boucham,
Steve the former Idiot Intern, and our beloved Pearl, gone
but never forgotten. And thank you to all of our listeners.
(17:49):
Many of you have reached out to me with text
and emails in the last few weeks, and your words
have touched my heart. They truly have. Thank you, especially
to the ones who bonded with me over the loss
of their beloved pets. It is a difficult thing to
share such profound grief with a stranger, and I assure
you why I wept along with you. I will always
consider two Old Dogs the best single thing I've ever written.
(18:11):
Please stay in touch with your animal stories tales from
the Compound on Facebook. I'd appreciate it. So now, what
what is an aging, washed up B movie actor and
former sixth Wheel on a nationally syndicated radio show to do.
I'll be five. I've had a few broadcasters reach out
(18:32):
to me. Some of our affiliates inquired about providing bits,
Come on, I mean that chapter is closed. I found
several creative outlets that are already in the works, social
media hijinks. I've got two new books coming out, some
YouTube channels, and at some point there will be a
Tales from the Compound podcast, but it more likely will
be a weekly radio show. It's all in the works
(18:52):
as we speak. I'm also a content consultant, helping small
businesses to develop and create social media videos. Basically have
to do something creative. I'd love to do some more theater,
but the first time, some twenty something Entreenu tells me
her preferred pronouns, I'd probably bust the spring and wind
up in the Who's Go. But since my wife became disabled,
(19:14):
I can no longer travel for TV and movies. I
have way too many animals that count on me every
single day, and their needs outweigh my desire to perform
and scene. So I'll do what I can when I can,
but it will be something. I'm an actor, Damn you
not a movie star. Well, I guess that's it. This
(19:35):

Story with Carl Childer.
Speaker 14 (37:21):
And Now it's story time with your host, Carl Chilters.
Speaker 11 (37:27):
We used to watch this movie up the Nervous Hospital
every year about this time, called the Christmas Story Bench,
A story about Christmas. I can tell you about it
if you own me too. Oh oh yeah, yeah, sure,
a lot of gunn anyway, Well, sir, it's all about
(37:48):
this chubby little boy. Wears them big old glasses. Make
him look kindly like a bug Christmas just around the
corner of the arm. Chubby little bug boy, he got
his heart blump set on this here fancy air rifle.
Some folks calls it a bb gun. I called it
an air rifle. He spends a great deal of time
thinking about it. Yet Mama don't want him to get
(38:11):
it on the counter. She don't want him to shoot
his eyebawl out.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Of his head.
Speaker 11 (38:16):
That little chubby bug boy, he got him a daddy.
He's a hard working man, makes a good wage. He
used to be the nights talker once upon a time,
but he got him a different job.
Speaker 19 (38:30):
Now.
Speaker 11 (38:31):
He likes to cuss out the furnace and the neighbor's houndogs.
That chubby little bug boy, Danny. He falls in love
with a lamp looks like a lady's leg. We had
a fellow like that up the Nervous. I reckon it
(38:54):
party special on accounty. It comes from a plate called
Fragili like that's north of Millsburg Summers. Well, sir, that
little chubby bug boy, he got him a little brother,
no bigger than a squirrel. He likes to rub food
in his hair and sit under the sink and drinking milk.
(39:16):
We had one of them up, the nervous chubby bug boy.
He got some friends are hi. One of them sticks
his tongue to the flag pole and the other young's
runoff summers. That's what youngins did for fun, for they
were video games. This movie, it's even got a bad guy,
(39:39):
some old plug, ugly boy with yellow eyes and green teeth.
He kind of crowled a little bug boy, and his
friends makes board of him quite a bit. He's no
count chubby little bug boy. He finally gets a belly
full of yellow eyes, nonsense and plumb whoops the tar
out of him all the time, cursing him out. Like
(39:59):
I said, Tayler, some folks call it swear, and I
call it Kirsten whoops him so bad, little bug boy
Mama has to pull him off. She takes him home,
makes me a bar soap. Don't seem like a way
to pat him on the back for sticking up for himself.
But he didn't need no distractions thereon.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
It's close to Christmas.
Speaker 11 (40:20):
He's concentrating on getting that air rifle. He even went
to that big store downtown to campaign old Santa Claus himself.
But this weren't the real Santa Claus. Seems like this
Santy Claus was into the brown liquor. No sure, the
real Santa claus wouldn't kill that chubby little bug Boy's
dream of that air rifle him. He told him he
(40:43):
was gonna shoot his eye out, just like everyone else thought.
Mister mill Cox said, they call that a conspiracy. He
listens to late night radio quite a bit. Then Santa Claus,
he kicked that chubby little bug boy in his big
old head and he fell down the slide right into
(41:04):
them folks from the Wizard of Oz. I didn't understand
that part of it. By now, chubby little bug boy
he was seeing red. Seemed like a whole dad gum
world was again hi. Come Christmas morning, they ain't nowhere rifle.
(41:24):
He does get this Easter bunny outfit from his fistrant
it Daddy makes him take it off on a kind
of makes him look funny anybody. After all he'd been through,
Chubby Little bug Boy was having a pretty sad Christmas.
(41:45):
Then his daddy he finds his present of hiding in
the corner. It's that dad gum air rifle. He runs
outside starts shooting. Danged if he didn't shoot his eyeball
plumb out of his head. Good Mama, she come running
out yelling, what you shot? Tibe all out of your head?
Speaker 3 (42:06):
For her?
Speaker 11 (42:06):
What's shoe tibe all out of your head?
Speaker 6 (42:07):
Fur?
Speaker 11 (42:11):
Chubby Little bug Boy goes crazy. He bandages up his
head and goes out looking for blood. First, he finds
that no count store Sandy Claus and m Elves and
unloads his air rifle on him. It didn't break the skin,
but they know they've been at it. And he tracked
down Old Yellow Eyes. He whooped the tar out of
(42:32):
them before, but I reckon that didn't satisfy that Chubby
Little bug boy none. He pointed that fancy air rifle
and Old Yellow Eyes, but he was out of ammunition,
so he turned that air rifle around and commenced to
club that other no count young and killed him. And
(42:54):
Daddy was so takled to find out his boy weren't
no sissy. He gave the Christmas turkey to the neighbor dogs.
You took the family out for some Chinese food. Morel
of the story. Air rifle can kill a Feller if
you know how to use them. No Plus, you might
get a bullet chop suway from your daddy. Oh the end.
