I love that interest song every time. Oh I know,
I just rock out over here.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
So Don Ross Ross Wealth Advisors, Don Ross the retirement
boss joining us in studio, but just broke a little
bit ago. Michigan head coach Sharon Moore fired after two
full seasons as the head coach inappropriate relationship with a
staff member. So that's it. That's all they're reporting right now.
But he's gone. And who is the interim zach? Attack? Who?
(00:41):
What was his name?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Beth Pogey?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Biff? His name is Biff, Biff Pogy p og G.
I is that right?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I want to take on a team coached by Biff
next year.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Biff Pogey.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I still thought I was telling Blazer during the break.
I think it would be amazed at if he's interim
head coach and then they get another head coach before
the season started. I would go around and be like,
I'm an undefeated college head football.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Well the assistant coach needs to me Mark Marty McFly
then you know.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Right, Biff, and exactly, But it is true, Sharon Moore,
there he is, he's gone. See yuh. Will he land
somewhere else? I think he will. He's had I think, Well,
I don't know, is he's so connected to Yeah, you know,
this is obviously playing out live right on the air
(01:32):
as far as the thoughts on this, because I hadn't
really think, you know, put a whole lot of thought
into it as of yet. Yeah, I think he lands somewhere.
I don't know that it'll be a big school to
the magnitude of a University of Michigan.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
But doesn't Ohio State need an offensive ordner?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Oh boy, it's not happening, man, Oh not happened.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Shamee.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
South Florida doesn't need anybody now. Yeah, I'm I'm just
reading this over note there, nobody's disclosing the other half
of the relationship.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
It'll be zipped up.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Here's the thing though, this guy, he's married since twenty fifteen,
he's got three daughters. I just I don't know. I
guess I expect too much from mankind.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Well, not that it gives him a pass, but usually
when you do something like that, are you happy in
your current relationship? Are you happy and you know it?
Clap your hands, you know, what I mean. And I'm
not giving him a pass. I'm not saying, you know,
she could be the most unpleasant, horrible person on earth,
or you never divorced the same person you married ever,
(02:41):
or you wouldn't divorce him. So and look, and you're
welcome on all that wisdom, because I know you never
heard any of that before. I'm just saying, with him
and his situation, we don't know exactly you know, what
was going on there. He could have been in complete
and total hell not again, and that it gives him
a pass to do that. You just in those situations,
(03:03):
you'd say, wrap that one up before you start another one,
if you would, But it doesn't always. The timing doesn't
always work out always.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
University cheatings just a way to solve all your problems.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I'm always curious that defining inappropriate what was an inappropriate
conduct and activity?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
What inappropriate relationship? Right with a staff member?
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Oh? Relationship? Okay?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Is it say staff staff relaid with a staff member? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Oh yeah it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Was oh man, of course I had it open and
now it's not. Yeah, did it say staff member? That
was an inappropriate relationship?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
The first story I had said staff member?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yes, okay, you just got to leave that alone. You
just can't do you know. Yeah, got to McDonald or something.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Now, just a week ago he fired his Special Teams coach.
Mm hmm, I won't granted him out.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Oh there you go.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Oh that's a good point.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
There'll be some good goop come out on that one.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
That's exactly what happened.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Good call if so. If Jamie Brown is the next
head coach at Michigan, don't be surprised.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Juck's so smart.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Who is it? Downtown? J D Brown?
Speaker 3 (04:16):
JB Brown?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
JB Brown?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Jab Brown?
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Hey. Steve Perry, singer of course of Journey, the great
lead singer of Journey for so many years auctioning off
personal items for charity, and he is saying goodbye to
items from his personal archives. The original frontman for Journey,
of Course, announced a new holiday auction with over ninety
pieces of signed personal memorabilia, including instruments. Did he play
(04:42):
an instrument? He had a microphone, but he didn't actually
play any Maybe you just signed some stuff, yeah, instruments?
Handwritten lyrics? Man, How cool would it be to have
the handwritten lyrics for Separate Ways signed by Steve Perry?
Pretty cool?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Be unbelievab wouldn't that be cool?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Probably of him singing it. But I'm assuming he would
have played an instrument even if he was lead, you know,
lead singer. I would assume most people in a band aren't.
Don't they play some kind of instrument. I don't know,
from drums to you know, the piano, to a guitar
or harmonica.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
I never once, there's no footage of him playing any
instruments that I'm aware.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Of, and I don't ever recall him playing anything.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
True, true, I just would think, you know, being musically inclined,
he probably played something and then got into Hey, I
got a really cool voice.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Maybe doesn't he have a special coming up on Netflix?
You were telling me each other.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah, there's a was it something unchanged or the music unchanged?
Something like that. It's a Netflix, uh special, just about
his life and career.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
And this is forthcoming. It's not out.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
It's not as Christmas.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Oh go I remember that, Oh Zach, cue some of
that up and keep in hand.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I didn't want to hurt I didn't want to hurt
anybody's ears.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Well, keep it handy, because we'll get to that.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Here's as a legend than he is as a current performer.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
His own Diamond are i AA Award for Escape. That's
one of the things that he's going to end up
auctioning off, and it's called Dark Ives Collectibles. They're going
to raise money for the Gilead House. I don't know
(06:26):
what any of that is, but that's what's associated with it.
So if you're thinking about this organization, by the way,
just it helps homeless single mothers and their children. So
fantastic cause. The auction is open now until December sixteenth,
and it can be accessed through dark Ives Collectibles website.
(06:47):
Darkives d A r K i v E s like
dark Ives, like archives but only spelled dark and then
Ives Collectibles website. That would be cool, especially the fact
that they are over ninety pieces of signed memorabilia from him. Wow,
that would be really cool to own something. I think
(07:07):
he's one of the greatest vocalists in the history of
rock period. End of story.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
I'll tell you another one who's been very present on
social media here lately. This goes back, but he's got
a toll free number. You can call him and like
leave a voicemail. He's like, hey, let me call you back.
Paul Anka. Oh, Oh my gosh, PA's all over the
place the last week. I don't know what's going.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
On with him.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
He's had a book coming out or so.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
He was on Kimmel I think last week, and he's pimping.
Still sounds grated. I think he's eighty four, Still sounds
great song. He's he's out there.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And all over.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I love it when the old guys don't go away,
especially if they're still good.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I was gonna say, wait a minute, because David Lee
Roth won't go away, and I'm like, please stop there, do.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Not appear, dude. Stop David Roth knocking on Neil Yeah,
any member of Oh Boy.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
And then also the Stones need to stop too, Mick Jagger.
Should they should have stopped like twenty years ago.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yes, people are paying six hundred dollars a ticket. Why
would they stop?
Speaker 1 (08:08):
So I just don't understand it though, that's my point.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Hey, Uh, Steve Perry did a did a Christmas album
and we we previewed some of it. Uh, and I
I had to go to therapy.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Fuck hmm, this is real too.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
By the way, don.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
What do you think Jesus? No, okay, look at your
expression like this is great or you're like, no.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
No, this is pathetic.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh okay, okay, No, he's got a bunch of yes
people around him.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
He has to. Nobody was honest with him. Why wouldn't
they go, hey, Steve, this isn't your lane, brother, or
he didn't know he's being recorded.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
The orchestration's entirely wrong for his voice to begin. Secondly,
he should have taken this down a couple of couple
of levels and started lower and shown off towards the end.
That's what people are expecting and build up to it.
Right now, it just sounds. It sounds like that neighbor
on family guy showing like a little good news.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Guy, Zach, you better play his top song then now.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
But when you hear like what you just heard, you're right.
You are thinking, Okay, it's gonna get better, But it doesn't.
It doesn't get any better. When you listen to it.
You just say, how does somebody so talented as now?
I know? I don't think he can hit the notes
like the stuff, the high notes, you know, the journey heyday.
(09:40):
I think there's something physically that is ailing him. I
think that stops him from staying with them, and that's
beside him. And Neil shown having their battles or whatever
falling out, but everybody was in shock when they got inducted,
and he was there with the band and so on,
and then they didn't perform. The Filipino kid Uh performed
(10:04):
with them, and I.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Still don't like him, the one that sounds just like him.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
He does sound very close to it to Steve very much.
And he's been in the band longer now than Steve.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Obviously he's in the band.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
What a wonder?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Oh boy, no, what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (10:23):
He almost sounds like he's drunk, but he doesn't drink.
I don't believe.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Don't feel bad for him.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
This is the audio version of of Michael Jordan with
the Wizards. That's what this this, that's what this feeling like.
Why'd you do that? Just stop? You're ruining everything?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Stup, no, and the darkness of night, and they'll be
there for you. And I think to myself, that's good, Chuck,
that's good. He's moving ahead over there and everything. Wow,
work it, work it.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
I'll pull some sat out and RB. Yeah that was good.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I can hear that.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah, man, hell there, now your throat hurts, that scratchy
out hurts, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
The throat and believe it or not, the gut are
very important. Steve's put on weight, he's got a belly
on him now. And but when you were singing, Yes,
you need your throat, you need your vocal cords. But
that diaphragm is so important. And once you let that
that core get soft, you don't have that power that
you used to have. And I think he's suffering from that.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Well. Uh, I still would like to own some of
his stuff, just hopefully none of it entails that CD.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
We were just right, you have to.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Buy Hey, uh don you had somebody in your office today, Yeah,
who you told me earlier just a little just a
little bit about but bring some of that on the air,
because it's interesting when I hear and you hear this
all the time from people, and you're probably thinking, wow,
I can't I can't believe yeah, and this, you know.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
So so usually I'm on I'm usually on at four
o'clock with you, right every Wednesday. And so this, this
person heard me on the this couple heard me on
the radio, h on you know with you, which has
just been awesome. And one at a four o'clock today
and I said, hey, you know, Laser didn't mind if
I come at five. And anyhow, we're having a conversation
(12:18):
about our planning and we created that acronym ARMOR, which
stands for estate planning, risk management, medical protection, tax planning,
and retirement income planning. And they, like their advisor been
with him twenty years, but they're asking, Okay, we're ready
to retire, now, how do we take this money back?
And the advisor didn't have any answer, and they felt
(12:41):
very shocked that he didn't have an answer. And I'm like, well,
it's not uncommon. Many advisors are great. And they were like,
he was great at accumulating, helping us accumulate, but now
he just had no answer. So we need your help, right,
you know, once you retire, Yeah, how do you take
that money back? What do you want to have? That's
retirement income? I mean, that's the core of the five
(13:01):
areas that we focus on. And they looked at me like,
we really need help. And they've saved quite a bit
and most of it's in retirement accounts. The biggest thing
about that is all those taxes embedded in there, and
many people we want to show them strategies if it
makes sense. Again, this is very case by case. How
do we get that money out of their strip to
(13:22):
tax on then put it somewhere tax free Because you
take money out of a tax free account, how much
do you owe zero the other account? You're going to
pay tax on it forever, and then your kids will
pay tax on it, and then you're and so. But
they didn't have any retirement income plan, and I told them,
I said, hey, fear not, this is not uncommon, and
(13:43):
we'll show you a plan that works for you. And
if we decide to work together, we'll meet twice a
year and we'll go through your plan every time and
you will have that peace of mind. I can just
see her face like, oh, it's great. And Daniel's another
financial advisor in our office. He's there to accompany me
all the time. And it happens out there. And so
if any listeners are concerned, like, hey, my advisor did
(14:05):
a great job accumulating, but we don't have a plan. Okay,
am I making sense? So we don't have a plan
how to take it out because retirement could last thirty
some years, right, And so it's just it's such a
privilege to show and again, this is one of your
listeners and so the beauty of that is we're also
philosophically aligned. Oh okay, which is very important.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Gotcha.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
It's just fun. I love it. I appreciate it. That
is cool, cool too, man, Thanks to you.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Eight three three Don Ross eight three three D O
N R O S. S. It's really that simple as
far as contacting you can text or call and then
get my book and get your book for free too,
and kind of get going with that and then go
from there. But it's it's story after story of these
kinds of things, which is exactly why you do this.
(14:52):
You know, we're having lunch the other day and you
were like saying, yeah, I had a couple of different
things happen at the beginning of my life, one of
which was you don't be a jack of all trades
master of nine.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
That's my dad taught me a powerful lesson.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Yeah, and then you're like you start doing this, and
you're like, this is what I love to do. And
look and here we are a gazillion years later, and
you're helping.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
People in thirty thirty three years in counting.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yep, yep.
