Speaker 1 (00:01):
What still Honkah? Guys, today's the one, two three, it's
the fifth night of Hanukah or the sixth night? Tonight's
the sixth, Yeah, exactly, last night was the fifth.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
That's fun you say, so, you could be wrong, but
I'm sure somebody will let us know. We have celebrity
birthdays this day in history to talk about some other
exciting news from the world of Hollywood. But it doesn't
get much more exciting than Brad Pitt's birthday, does it?

Speaker 1 (00:23):
By the way, before everybody tunes out, because what he's
about to do is gonna be terribly boring. We have
news about Gawayne Maxwell possibly getting out of prison. Stick around.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Brad Pitt is sixty two.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yummy years old this morning.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Happy birthday, Brad Leap. It's also Keith Richards's birthday. The
guitars for the Rolling Stone. He is the excuse they're
using for not touring next year. They said his health
just doesn't seem like he's up to it. At just
turning eighty two this morning.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Wow, how about that?

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Steven Spielberg seventy nine, let's see countdown.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
No, nobody knows that guy. Everybody knows Stone Cold Steve often.
I like Stone Cold Steve. I y all know him? Okay, yeah,
he seems cool to me. Happy birthday.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Rachel Griffiths, who was Brenda on six feet under fifty
seven cucko.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Okay, no, that's no. No.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh, Katie Holmes former missus Tom Cruise, she's forty seven today.
Christina Aguilera is forty five.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
No. Billy Eilish, Oh, Billy Eilish. She's been a thing
for a while. I don't know if you've seen. Normally
she has really baggy clothes on, but she just showed
up at some event wearing kind of a tight fitting
cleavage breast showing thing and everybody was really surprised. She
is all of twenty four years old. Now, it's been
around for quite a while.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
She'll really do it for me.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
She's not your type. No, And also, besides the living,
keep forgetting. Rayleigh Yoda is dead and has been dead
since twenty twenty two, not coming back.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
No.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
He was of course in Good Fellas, and he was
in Field of Dreams. He played shoeless Joe Jackson a
lot of stuff. Ray Liota born in the State Ozzie Davis,
old guy from way back in the day and Ty Cobb,
who was a baseball player, and a lot of people
had some terrible things to say about him because he
said some terrible things about a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
See here's where this gets complicated. Mister. Oh, he was
a racist, but he was also half black. Yeah, Ty
Cobb was racist, like he didn't like black people, but
also he was half black. Yeah, maybe half himself didn't
treat the other half too good. Yeah, how do you
analyze that? As a black man? What do you think
about that? That's that's tricky business, what they do.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It's complicated, right, So he suffered from white guilt so
much that it overrode the black superiority that he wanted
to share.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
I guess so, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Today is National Bake Cookies Day. So if somebody get
busy down there in the kitchen, also answer the phone.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Like Buddy the Elf day.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
You remember Buddy when he would answer the phone, he
was always so cheerful.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Buddy the Elf? What's your favorite color? Now you have
to do that all day? Why would I answer the phone?
I just text people.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah, nobody calls anybody anymore? How long has been Sejared
phone ring? Except from some old idiot in a restaurant
or the airport.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Well, we were on the phone earlier because we got disconnected.
But unless there's an emergency, yeah, yeah, we were having
connection issues today connecting to our home base back in Houston.
By the way, credit to Tom and Evan and Callum.
We made everybody scramble and in the end I think
it was just a computer issue. It's good to know
how clean our coworkers are. Though. Almost everybody we called
was in the shower. That is a good point. Were

(03:43):
they all together? No, they were not all right.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
It's also the birthday of the gringe.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Happy birthday.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Technically it's the day in history, but I like to
think it's his birthday.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
So it's National regifting Day. I'm a proud regifter. I
don't have any shift. Someone gives me something and I
don't want it, give it to someone else, soy be wasteful,
don't throw it away. Bake cookies Day, National Crime Junkie Day,
and National roast a suckling Pig Day. So there you go. Yeah,
so happy birthday to the view Oh yeah or whatever.
Hurtfull anyway, And now today in history, he's probably brought

(04:14):
to you by good old law Tigers. You know how
law Tigers is.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Man, you get a motorcycle accident this year, any year,
even next year, which is two weeks away, law Tigers
is on your side.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Man. I like law Tigers so much. There's a part
of me that almost wants to get into a motorcycle
accident just so I can have an excuse to call him,
you know what I mean. You can call them anyway.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
But then they find out that you weren't in an accident,
they'll probably tell you to hang up so they can
go talk to somebody that needs them.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah, that would probably piss them off, and frankly, you
couldn't blame them.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
The Grinch was really born on this date fifty nine
years ago. It was nineteen sixty six when Doctor Seuss's
How the Grinch Stil Christmas.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Aired for the first time.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Nobody knew what a grinch was until Doctor SEUs told us, Wow,
how about that? Also nineteen sixty one, it was a
little before that.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
The Lion Sleeps Tonight?

Speaker 2 (05:06):
You know that that song? It went to number one
on the charts for the Tokens, all right.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
And the Tokens were a bunch of white guys. But
mister ow, do you know what I'm about to say? Yes?
I do. The song was written by some black guy
in South Africa named Solomon Linda. He got almost no money. Well,
the white boys in Africa was the Tokens. Yeah, this
is like the perfect example of cultural appropriation. Gallo Records
and the artist Pete Seeger and the Tokens profited immensely

(05:38):
from this work, eventually leading to a lawsuit by Linda's
family against Disney for using it in The Lion King,
resulting in a settlement acknowledging his authorship and providing royalties.
Somebody got paid finally here. Yeah, it was just some
black guy in Africa. They used to sing this song
late at night. He had a group called the what
were they the Evening Birds. They recorded a song called Moubooboo,

(06:00):
which was lyon in Zulu in Johannesberg. It was a
very hypnotic song, Moboobo, featuring Linda's distinctive falsetto. It became
a huge hit in South Africa, but they didn't have
any money because you know South Africa under apartheid laws.
Linda signed away his rights for just ten shillings. That'd
be about eighty seven cents, uh huh, and a sweeping
job at Gallo Records, earning virtually nothing from its success.

(06:21):
Wow arriving in America in the nineteen fifties, Pete Seeger
received a copy misheard mouboobo as Weem Away and recorded
it with the Weavers. That sounds don't even sound club
say ma boo boom boo boo. Wee boy, it doesn't
sound the same at all. I know, I get what
you're saying. And then in nineteen sixty one, the Tokens
version with a weemway owem mawy became a massive global

(06:44):
pop hit, made millions of dollars. And then in the
two thousands that's when the lawsuit with Disney happened. And
so that's the story. It was a long time coming,
wouldn't it.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Yeah, Yeah, an other day in history it was. And
boy is this telling and timing. Nineteen eighty four on
this state, Jamie Lee Curtis married Christopher Guest at Rob
Reiner's house Wow in Los Angeles. That was just nine
months after This is Spinal Tap hit at theaters. Reiner

(07:14):
directed Christopher Guests in that he would direct him three
years later in the princess bride because he played the
six fingered man that the Montoya guy kept running around,
you know, looking for.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
But I gotta tell you, you're this day in history.
Stories aren't that good? Can I do with for you? Please? Today,
in sixteen twenty, the Mayflower arrived at the Plymouth Harbor.
Kind of a big deal.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
I didn't want to take that from youcus I knew
that was first on your list, and I left it
for you.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Today, in seventeen eighty seven, you, Jersey became the third
state to ratify the Constitution. Slavery was abolished. Today in
eighteen sixty five, racist, mister Kenneth, Oh yeah, that too,
the thirteenth Amendment formally adopted in the Constitution. Mister O.
Can you believe this guy?

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Can you believe he won't talk about the line's sleeping
and stuff and anyone won't bring out in the race.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
You wanted to celebrate white people stealing from black people,
not the inter racism.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Remember we brought it back big time about sixteen years ago.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
All right, it's complicated. But today nineteen seventeen, the eighteenth
Amendment pro prohibition was approved by Congress and sent to
the states for ratification. That's a good day there, huh.
The first NFL playoff game indoors happened today in nineteen
thirty two. Waste Deep Snow in Chicago moved it inside
in nineteen thirty two, that's correct. How many people did

(08:29):
they have in attendo were probably not that many.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
No.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Japan was admitted to the UN today in nineteen fifty six.
On this day. In nineteen seventy four, here's an interesting one,
George and Kathy Luttz moved into a home in Amityville,
New York. It would not be there happily ever after.
If you know, you know in Amityville, you say what
happened there? I don't know. Today today, in twenty nineteen,
they tried to impeach Trump. They did, by the way.

(08:54):
In twenty twenty two, on this day in history, Argentina
won the World Cup on a penalty shootout. And I
didn't care that much at the time because I didn't
care about Argentina or soccer. But now that I'm a
fan of Javier Malay, i am team Argentina. Yeah. I'm
thinking about you're gonna move down there, right, I'm thinking
about going there this summer. Yeah. Oh, not moving. Just
check it out. And there was one on your list

(09:15):
that I wanted you to read. Which one was it?
What was the thing about Farley? Farley? Yeah? I didn't
you have Chris Farley on there? Oh? Did I? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Today's the day he was found dead.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
If that cheers you up or something. He was only
thirty three. Chris Farley was a comedy legend.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
That was nineteen ninety seven.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
That was so long.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Ago and we still miss him to this day.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
You know how much I hate going to Chicago. I
don't like going there, But next week I'm gonna be
there for Christmas. So I'm gonna go visit Second City,
the Comedy Troupe, and just go check it out, hang
out with the gang.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Now you're going to swing Bys see your mama? Any
about why you up there?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah? I'm gonna hang out with my mom. And I
have to help my sister build a dresser.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
She doesn't know how to build one by herself. Or
when you say help her, you have to do it
for her.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
I got it, Probably do it for her. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Today's show is sponsored by Ugly Christmas Sweaters or is
there known by people with no fashion sense? Christmas sweaters,
bwing down her pants, yanking off my own underneath the mistletoe.
I'll make your sister moan.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Walton and Johnson Radio Network. Hang on, I gotta tell everybody.
So before you tell us about the snow truck, that
was already talking, it was about this song. I think
whoever starts talking first gets the gets the floor. Am
I right? I got the floor. I put a song
on so I could talk about it. That gives you permission, Yeah,
if you want to, We're just gonna sit here and
let the song play while you tell us there's a
truck outside. Okay, tell yeah, that's a song. Play. Well,

(10:37):
you tell us why you played the song. All right,
stop everyone, billy, Yeah, tell us about a truck. Thank you.
It's not a truck.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
It's a snow cat and it's going beat, beat, beat,
because it's telling us the lift is about to open
and you're not here yet. So that's we just keep working, working,
working while the guy's out there going, come on, guys,
let's go ski.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Is there that much snow out there? Is that because
of climate change or yeah? That's what it is.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
It changed from this week last week, and now it's
gonna change again next week.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
All right, I got something, mister Kenneth. You remember the
case of the cheating couple at the cold Play concert.
Who doesn't remember that? Wow, we got some news about them.
That was a yeah, that was a big deal. The
HR executive who was caught on the Coldplay kiss cam
with her married boss is speaking out for the first time.

(11:27):
And this is Coldplay Christmas music. You get the tie in.
I'm starting to you.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Understand, you know, you make it tough on me though.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Chris cabot Age fifty three and the CEO of a
company called Astronomer, who is now the ex CEO. I
don't work there anymore. They had a couple. Apparently they
got a little touchy, they got a little grabby, and
they got caught. Everybody remembers this story, right, it was
all over social media. Well, now she is speaking out
for the first time. She says, quote, I made a
bad decision and I had a couple of high noons.

(11:59):
She was drinking and I danced and acted inappropriate with
my boss. Heinon's are those it's is it like a seltzer?
It's a hard seltzer? Right, what's the thing we drank
last night? Sneaky beat.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, oh what did What did he have that was
goodall screwball?

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, sneaky beat? Something else with peanut butter bourbon. Anyway,
that's not what they had. They had. This is about
the other woman here. She said, it's not nothing, and
I take accountability. I gave up my career. That's the
price I choose to pay. She admitted she had a
crush on her boss and she was excited to introduce
him to her friends. She says, quote, I want my
kids to know that you can make mistakes, you can

(12:35):
really screw up, but you don't have to be threatened
to be killed for them. People wanted to kill her.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
It's kind of a thing lately. I don't know if
you've seen it or not. People just love to throw
around death threats now like it's nothing, because after the
Democrats did it for so long on Trump, everybody's like,
we should do that all the time. That DJ up
at the radio station if he doesn't play the song
I called, and I'm gonna have to come up there
and kill you.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
I feel like after the two of them got caught
by their spouse, well she just got divorced. She was
still married.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Yeah, she didn't have none to lose, and he did.
And she didn't think about that, did she? Because she
was tipsy, That's all it was.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
I feel like that's really their problem, you know what
I mean. I mean, it's bad, Like, certainly the wife
deserves to be mad, But why would you threaten to
kill them? What do you care? Got nothing to do
with you? I don't know. Sometimes people on the internet
just needs to calm down people in real life too. Yeah, well,
yeahsolute Luigi.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
You know, but New York. Do you think he thought
it through? Do you think he really thought it through
that if I shoot and murder the CEO of the
the insurance company, that my insurance premiums will go down.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
I don't think that's what he was thinking. But he
wasn't thinking right.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
He thinks the CEO guy is is that's the guy
who made all these rules that were following for insurance.
That's the government, that's the politician's doing that.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Yeah, you raise a great point. He didn't shoot a
politician though, Doue, Well, who did he shoot? The CEO
of United Healthcare? A political figure, but not a politician.
It was a political assassination even though he wasn't a politician, which,
by the way, is.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
What Charlie Kirk's assassination was as well. He was not
an elected politician either.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Certainly, Yeah, very similar if you think about that.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
But did that do anything? Did it affect anything? Did
it make positive change? By killing somebody?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
It helped positive change for Candice Owen's podcast numbers, that's
about all it did. It sounds like her podcast was suffering,
and then she started talking about Charlie Kirk and everyone
started tuning in more. And when she realized that, she
started saying crazy stuff every day to get more and
more listeners.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Crazy you get the more people want to tune in,
even if it ain't cause they like it or believe
what you say, and they just want to see you
go crazy, they say in it.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Maybe that's what we ought to do on this show.
Maybe we ought to get ridiculous occasionally. Yeah, we ought
to come up with a thing where we're more ridiculous. Yeah,
can we be crazy?

Speaker 2 (14:54):
You know?

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Can we be crazier? You and me and the rest
of the gang here. Can we liked?

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (14:59):
I mean, I don't like I can, but y'all can
give it a shot. Not mean either, this is as
crazy as I get. I've been trying. I've been eleven
this whole time, and for me, eleven's like most people's
four ye's on tribute to Rob Reiner. Yeah, yeah, all right.
Glene Maxwell has filed a petition asking a federal judge
to overturn her sex trafficking conviction and free her from prison,

(15:20):
claiming substantial new evidence it is from her. Yeah, this
is an eleventh hour hail Mary passed. She's trying to
do this before they release those documents.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
So she's had this evidence all along and she just
now decided that she should use this to get out
of jail.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
In a petition, Maxwell's lawyer is arguing that information which
would have resulted in her exoneration at her twenty twenty
one trial was withheld and that false testimony was presented
to the jury. They say the cumulative effect is the
complete miscarriage of justice. Yeah. Maxwell was jailed, as you know,
for sex trafficking after recruiting young girls for Epstein for

(15:58):
who else up? Nobody ELSEIM just him. Her latest legal
bid for freedom came yesterday, two days ahead of the
deadline for the release of the Epstein files.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
People keep saying if she recruited all these young girls
for you know, nefarious deeds, who what are young girls
doing the Nefari's deeds with?

Speaker 1 (16:16):
That's a great question, and she knows, but she ain't saying.
So they're going to release those Epstein files on Saturday,
just in time for our comedy show at the Docy Doe, Well,
will you have a chance do you think to maybe
go over that a little bit and prepare some material?
You know the most interesting thing about the Epstein files
is it has his email address in it. Yeah, And
I've been emailing it from and does the answer from

(16:39):
beyond the Gray. Whenever I'm at one of my friend's computers,
I'll sit down and I'll send an email, because you know,
the CIA and the FBI read those emails. They do
so just to mess with my friends, I've been sending
emails to Jeffrey Epstein's old email address. Yeah, and I
just say things like, hey, buddy, I know you're still
out there and I miss you. Yeah you, Hey buddy,
I know I still owe you money. Where can I
send it to time? Last time you won't get together?

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Well, who is that girl you introduced me to? She
is she still available, did she have her birthday yet?
And only a handful of my friends have been arrested
because of this, So I'm gonna keep doing it. Might
as well. Yeah, I'm not like they're gonna do anything
to you. Speaking of getting arrested, do you guys know
who Pai Chung is? No, Okay, she's a famous, well famous,
I'm using the term loostly here. She's a food influencer

(17:25):
on the internet.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
She's a notorious at least.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Right she dines and dashes and then she brags about
it on social media.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Oh, just a chick with the long dark hair. I
think I've seen a picture of her. Yes, she's getting
arrested or something.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
She's got the crazy bangs. Oh boy. A judge has
scolded the acute serial dining dash diva pay Chung as
she traded her designer duds for prison scrubs in a
Brooklyn court yesterday.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
So she thought this would be, you know, like the
crazy thing, like like Candello O one, do something crazy,
she get attention. This girl do something crazy. She's gonna
get all that attention on the internet. And if she
get arrested, I think that mole crazy.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
It's kind of like being a rapper. Yeah, yeah, you
got more cred. Dressed in a drab olive colored jail uniform, Chung,
aged thirty four, who allegedly skipped out on at least
eight expensive restaurant bills in a month, look at repeatedly
interrupted Judge Orville Reynolds during her Brooklyn Criminal Court hearing.
A not interrupted judge. You know they touchy. Yeah, he
wasn't having an He snapped at her. He said, when

(18:22):
I speak, you don't speak understand. How do you know
so much about judges? Mister, yeah, how do you know?
Uh yeah, I'd like to hear that, mysel Yeah tell us, well,
by what never mind? Anyway? Are you cutting out? I'm
losing the broadcast. They say this Peychun girl is a
Prada loving wannabe influencer. Previously posted photos of herself decked

(18:43):
out in furs and high end Louviton and Hermes accessories.
Looked disheveled in handcuffs. Whatever I've worked with you so much, Hermes,
the age is silent, okay. Anyway, She looked dishoveled in
her handcuffs as she was standing in the courtroom yesterday
during the hearing, Chung's lawyer asked the judge to forbid

(19:03):
photography in the courtroom, but the court judge wasn't aving.
He said, no, she likes being on camera to pick
pictures of her. The judge allowed photography, citing public interest
in the case. Now she got into trouble. November twenty
sixth ordered to undergo a psych evaluation after her lawyer
claims she couldn't understand the charges against her. Oh no,
is she like stupid? You know what pisses me off

(19:24):
about all this targeted me. It's one thing to screw
over the people that own the restaurant, right because that sucks.
That's sucky in and of itself. But you remember that
there are people that wait tables for a living, who
don't make a lot of money, and they have just
spent an hour of their time waiting on you. You
think you think maybe she forgot to tip when she
forgot to pay. I'm sure she didn't tip. Yeah, it's
a forgot thing. Sure. She was at something called the

(19:47):
Molay Mexican Bar and Grill and Williamsburg. She ordered one
hundred and forty nine dollars worth of food and then
tried to leave without paying. That's how she got caught.
Does she dine alone?

Speaker 2 (19:57):
She is?

Speaker 1 (19:57):
She just her and doesn't say that's a lot of food.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
I would be suspicious immediately as a waiter if they
ordered like one hundred and fifty dollars or the food
and they're just sitting there by themselves. Well, she's thinking,
GEESEZ gonna skip out.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
She's done this almost a dozen times that we know of,
all over the city of New York. And she's been
charged with theft of services. And she is currently staying
in Rikers Island, where, not surprisingly, the food is not
very good. Uh oh, yeah, I have a machine gun.

(20:34):
Stay tuned for more.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Waltman Johnson
