showers and off the roofs. Yeah, seventy three degrees is
what we're gonna get up to today for a daytime high.
So this has got to be some some cools fighting
with some warm but man brace yourself for the heat.

once you get up into elevation, it really picks up
a little the same with the same with cold. Like

Oh, where Dante goes. Yes, why didn't you invite me?

Speaker 1 (13:51):
It's it's why didn't Dante's They should have invited it out.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
You should have had me there. That's just silly. Well,
first of all, Dante put on a demonstration.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
I didn't even know Dante was part of the New
School of Montpellier.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
We talk about it on Saturdays, we give shout outs
to the New School of Montpellier. I guess I just
don't pay attention to res.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Your face, I don't know. But he was there, and
you know, the last time I saw him, Dante being autistic.
Last time I saw him, he wanted nothing to do
with me.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
I mean it took eight people two weeks ago to
get him to school. Yeah, dang jiu jitsu. I know, man.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
Mom was telling me.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
All about that.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
I love that kid, Corey saying we will invite you
next year, Rex, thank you. Oh yeah for the old
famous will invite you next year. Excuse but I you know,
I gotta tell you. When I saw Dante over at.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
Was he happy?

Speaker 1 (15:04):
Well, when I saw him at Green Mountain Community Fitness
over the pool, wanted nothing to do. I try to
talk to him nothing.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
Well, yeah, nobody's going to talk to a short, fat
little creeper in a speedo. Come here, a little boy,
Come here, a little boy. And you wonder why he
wouldn't go over there.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
But yesterday I finally got to connect with him a
little bit. I shook his hand. He was hysterical. I mean,
he was like, bring his face like right up here
to me, like look at me, right in the eye.
And at one point I'm like, I hope he's not
going to pull any like Rex moves on. But I

(15:42):
met Corey, I met his dad, and we got a
chance to chat a little bit, and I told Dante
that he's famous that I watch every Saturday morning. What
time are you going on with him? Tomorrow morning? Nine?

I got one kid. He is out like a light sleeping.
It's like three cores of the way through training. He
was at the kids class, he was at the the
free kids games. He was at the beginner's class, and
he made about halfway through the advanced class and he
was out like a light in the middle of the cage.
Oh yeah, dad's serious. I'll show it's on. Uh, it's
probably on the Granite City wall. You'll see him. He

about sevent eight years old. I got videos of all
the kids and love that. Yeah, the place was packed
and we had the kids. So I tell like, I'm
already a brown belt. I've done a lot of it.
Most of the stuff that they're going over, I've gone
over it. Yes, it's it's very very helpful for tightening
stuff up. But I have enough time, Like I can't

I get more enjoyment. I hang out with Steve's kids,
Steven Brooks kids. They bring them and we wrestle around

She was shifting through third and fourth and then down
to third, down a second bank. She's in the track bank,
she's out of the track, and she was.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
The key is getting slowed down enough coming into the
corner so you can hold it wide open coming out
of it.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Well, that's what she was doing yesterday was I was
like Christmas morning for me. I was so happy right
alongside of her, and at some points she would shift out.

Don't don't let him fool you. We have this all
scripted the night before. We practiced this for an entire week.
I've been doing my acting lessons. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:24):

or anywhere for that matter.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
He's acting lessons.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Practicing reading the script right now.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
It's hard to memorize these lines. We I know it is.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
We're gonna be We're gonna be talking about Woodberry here
in just a minute.

Speaker 4 (21:47):
I have no clue what you're talking about. I was
out of signal all day yes day, I know, and
I was. I was actually asleep by seven.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
We are going to talk about Woodberry. Listen, little Abby,
Can I just say this, probably five year old little girl,
this sweet little girl, probably shouldn't be listening on Fridays.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Probably not. You should put a parental advisory eighteen and
over for Friday.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Well, I had that. I had that disclaimer for quite
a while, for a couple of years actually, and then
at least for this show. Yes, especially you well and.

Speaker 4 (22:22):
And this older language us everything man and G too,
make sure we cover it all and G yeah, yeah, yeah,
please be warned. Vermont.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Vermont State Police are investigating a body that was found
at a roadside pull off along Root fourteen in Woodbury
yesterday around three point thirty in the afternoon.

Speaker 4 (22:45):
Someone just dropped dumped it off.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
This was a story that just popped hard. I mean
because there were police everywhere. There was an abandoned white
Volvo at the scene that the crime unit and crime
teams were looking into and investigating to learn more about.
Drones were deployed looking for evidence. The woman's body was

(23:11):
taken to the medical examiner for an autopsy and identification.
No one is in custody. Police are seeking information. They
ask you to contact the Berlin Barracks.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
You know they're using drones now for raids.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Or do an anonymous tip online. I'm not surprised.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
No.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
If you see a drone fly into a living room,
there's a flash bank not far behind it. They're using
that now because it tapes the whole thing. It's really
good tactic because you can see, I mean the military
has been using it. You fly them in first, you
can see where all you're armed and true, you can
see where everybody is. You're not walking in blind trying
to clear rooms blindly. You have an idea because you
can see them.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
So you're saying, if there's a drone, there's a flash
bank coming up. For if there's a drone that flies
into my living room.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Yeah, there'll be a flash bank followed by a flash bang,
which could happened. That could happen at my house. You
never know, you don't. I mean you got cars driving
into your house. You know what's wild is because we
were on our way down to watch Chris's fight this
weekend and we got to New Hampshire and I'm not
gonna mention any names, but she's a local girl here
in Berry and don't even know how the fuck, but

(24:21):
I happen to be driving by and I looked at
my wife and I see this lady getting roughed up,
like on the side of the road in this rest area.
Where was this New Hampshire. I was like, that's so
and so in her ex husband.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
You recognized her?

Speaker 4 (24:36):
Yeah, I was like why, Like he was like trying
to wrestle her from and so I sent her a message.
I was like, yo, are you okay? I was like,
is that you on the side of the road Because
I was trying to find a way to turn around.
And I don't like that dude anyway, so I'd love
for him to try to rough me up. Oh So
I'm not going to get into that part of it,

(24:57):
but I you know, I tried to turn around. I
sent her a message. She's like, no, we're we're down here.
I was like, I knew that was you. It's just
wild to see that situation, you know, that many miles
away from home, and the balls on some people. I
couldn't imagine being a man out in public and put
my hands on a woman these days, you know. I

(25:17):
just like, how come I was the only one trying
to stop and beat the shit out of that guy?
What did you say to him? Nothing? He didn't. We
they left by the time we figured out how to
get back to that rest are, because we were already
on our way by and we were all the way
down in New Hampshire, so heading off to the next exit.
She had responded to us that she was okay.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
So front page of the Time circus yesteryear, eyes so
big because and I'll tell you why. I'll tell you exactly.
I don't read the Times.

Speaker 4 (25:53):
Agus I'll tell you why they don't cover professional sports.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
The reason why my eyes are so big is because
I forgot my optical expressions glasses.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
Me too, Man, I need to go back over there already.
I broke my glasses the first week.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
Eye on them, my emergency pair.

Speaker 4 (26:18):
There you go. Hey, those those are pretty cool though.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Okay, but these I have to come in a little closer.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Front page of the Times argus yesterday about the conduct
ordinance in Barrie.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
What so I'm not going to be allowed in Berry anymore?

Speaker 1 (26:40):
A radically rewritten ordinance still aimed at curbing bad behaviors
in Barry drew mixed reviews during another protracted public hearing
on Tuesday night. Four weeks after narrowly approving the first
reading of a community conduct ordinance that was largely borrowed
from Brattleborough, City councilors restarted the process, this time using

(27:05):
a Burlington ordinance. City Manager Nicholas Starelli Castro, who's been
on the air several times talking about it, described this
as a template. He said the revised ordinance has been
vetted by the city attorney and he believed addressed some
of the objections raised during last month's public hearing. While

(27:31):
responding Will while responding to a lingering community concern involving
a spike in troubling behaviors in some public spaces. If adopted,
the proposed ordinance would enable authorized city officials and um
quoting here papers quoting to issue a notice against trespass

(27:54):
and enforce that notice against an individual whose behavior is dangerous, illegal,
or unreasonably disruptive, while recognizing the existing rights of individuals
to engage in constitutionally protected activities.

Speaker 4 (28:14):
Right, So if they pull out there, if they pull
out their phone, they say, hey, I'm I'm recording. You
cannot throw me away. So it becomes a gray area.
It's a huge gray are. So yeah, I mean, good
for the city to try to address something. And they're
trying to do something, you know what I mean. I mean,
people are upset, people are pissed, So how but how

(28:34):
do you address they're trying something? You can't you can't
knock them for not trying something. But yeah, how do
you trespass somebody out of the city of Barrier. I've
never that would be a tough one. Like, I don't
understand how you would trespass somebody from the public. That
would be tough because I watched those audits, the the

(28:55):
First Amendment audit. Guys. Yeah, and yeah, dude, they like
they're suing cities left and right for them trying to
trespass amount of federal buildings, public buildings. It's against the law.
So I don't know. I mean, but they we have
a city attorney, we have all that. So and if
the voters want it, then then it is what it is. Man. Yeah,

(29:18):
but kudos to the city for trying to do something
to actually address a real life problem. That's a problem
right now, you know, instead of worrying about uh, waving
the big flag in the middle of town. You know,
this is a real issue. This is something real where
people that like, it's not a it's not a right

(29:39):
or left issue. It's everybody sick of it. Everybody thinks
that it needs to be addressed. So kudas to them.
And I'm sure they'll figure out an ordnance. Nicholas is
a smart guy. Yes, yes, they'll they'll figure it out.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Uh, it's it's just here and the language, much of
which has been adopted from Burlington and bradle Borough in
this c the ordinance, but some of it says public
urination and defecation how is that not already?

Speaker 4 (30:07):
Like, if you're shitting on the sidewalk, how are you
not arrested? Come on, I agree.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Did you see that the picture of the guy in
Berry City Park who was dude?

Speaker 4 (30:18):
I got a video of Montpellier. So my buddy works
for Montpellier and I used to work for Montpelier. He
sent me a video of two people having sex on
the lawn of Shaws at noon, two homeless people. They
do it right out in the open, they do it
right behind. Uh what is it that the bull showed me? Nope,

(30:42):
I will when we get off this podcast, I'll show
you the video. He was in a he was in
a he was in a city truck. He was like,
you're not gonna fucking believe this, Judy, I have watched
she's referring to the counselors.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
Yeah, to me, I don't really have an opinion. I
don't live in the city. I work in the city,
but I'm not a voter. So that's you know, how
the city wants to handle it, that's on them. But
kudos to the city for being proactive. I actually I
don't know, man. They've done a lot of things to
be proactive. For the community. So I don't know. I

(31:23):
think they're trying and they're doing what they can.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
No, surely just said it. Forty years ago people wouldn't
get away with this kind of shit.

Speaker 4 (31:33):
So forty years ago, believe it or not. I used
to walk these streets up and down the streets that
forty years ago. Forty years ago, you could not walk
these streets. You would get beat up. There was always fights.
There was drugs, there was cigarettes. If you saw people
on the sidewalk, you would cross the street and go
to the other side. When I was a kid, you
were not allowed. We used to sneak down here to

(31:55):
this city. This city was bad twilight zone right up
the road. People were getting in there where the stripper
club is. That used to be an arcade and I've
seen people get stabbed in there as a little kid.
The city's been cleaned up a lot from when I
was a kid coming through here. My dad got stabbed
over on the railroad tracks running preparing for a PT test.

(32:18):
He was a judo instructor. Yeah, I guess, I don't know.
And that's the thing is, we now have generations of
people coming up through that didn't see how we grew
up here, so they just automatically assume it's super bad
right now. To me, it's pretty good shape.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
Some shithead just said, you guys remember forty years ago.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
Parts of it, man, most of the trauma. My brain
is blocked out.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Some dude named Ed Collins wrote that it surely says
I felt totally safe years ago. Sorry, Rex, I've heard
that many times.

Speaker 4 (32:59):
Me. Okay, well me, I used to walk these streets.
I knew all the hoodlums. That was one of them.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
You know what? I want to say something to Judy
Coughing here, who just asked, watch your city council meeting
lots of your constely. I watched, and I also posted
on Facebook. Will I posted on Facebook on Tuesday, right

(33:28):
around six o'clock, who's going to be watching the city
council meeting tonight?

Speaker 4 (33:33):
Talk about this? I didn't get one response. No, not.
We like to complain, We don't want to be proactive.
Facebook gives us that that opportunity to be like huge complainers.
We can we can no longer. We don't have to
be active in any way, shape or form. We just
bitch about it. Have you?

Speaker 1 (33:55):
And I I gotta tell you, man, some of the
stuff that I've been seeing on the berry from aunt
resident chat.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
Holy shit, man, I don't know, man, you know me.
I already got a new in the nine to one
one chat.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Did you see the stuff about about Eric Townsend and
Jessica Rollins their house?

Speaker 3 (34:16):
No?

Speaker 1 (34:17):
What Eric, now, dude, it's it's on the berry from
ant resident chat. And this last night I was reading
all the comments about this apparently this this guy who's
a taxi driver who's driving around people that are that
are you know, scoring drug deals presumably allegedly, And man,

(34:39):
there's there's some hot stuff. It's really polarizing. I mean,
people are just either one way or the other about this,
and it's pretty contentious stuff that I'm I'm seeing and
reading in our community. And honestly, regardless of what it is,

(35:02):
this is when all the bullies come out. It kind
of bums me out, man.

Speaker 4 (35:05):
This is when the bullies come out. This is when
this is the Internet makes them so common.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Now people passed out in cars, you know, listen, it's
fucking sad. I'll tell you right now that they just.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
Went out and got a fucking job and'd be all right.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
Then there are plenty I'm sure that there are people
that pass out in cars for various reasons, and I'm sure.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
The majority of them are due to the heroine, not
off that.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Yeah, you know, I listen. I'm not trying to deny
your I'm sure that plenty of it is drug related. Okay,
not just in Barryment, but it's like everywhere, everywhere.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
Every major city in the United States, every suburb in
the United States. I know, we are not anything different.
This is not like anywhere different than anywhere, but because
we live. Look at Ohio. Do you ever see the
narcan they going through in one night in Ohio, the
Bible Belt of the United States. Have you ever been

(36:15):
to Ohio? Drive through There's they have freaking barns painted
with Jesus on them and ship and they're they're they're
narcanning people sometimes two and three times in one night
in Ohio. We are not anything different. This is the
ship that our politicians should be fighting. This is what
our kids are dying for. My kids don't need to

(36:37):
go to Iran to die. They they need to they
need help here in the United States. Right So anyway,
let's move on. I don't want to talk about politics.
I don't. I've been like away from all that ship
kind of yeah, and it's it's, uh.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Well, there is something that I want to play. I
want to play for you. I don't know if it's
going to come out over for ops here, but I'm
gonna try.

Speaker 4 (37:03):
This whole bullshit of the WMDs again in Iran, dude
net and Yahoo's been saying this shit since nineteen ninety five.
There are two weeks away from a nuclear weapon. Fuck
two two weeks, two weeks. We always two weeks away.
He's been saying that since nineteen ninety five when he
had hair. I used to support Israel, but hey man,

(37:25):
you can't just continually bomb all the countries around you
and then say why they keep producting me stall.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
You just said you didn't want to get political.

Speaker 4 (37:34):
I know it drives me nuts because I don't want
my kids and my grandkids to go to another fucking
war in the Middle East. Our family paid a lot
for that war, and I'm just I'm not willing to
play in the sequel. And there they're saying the same
exact shit that they said during the first Iraq War.

Speaker 1 (37:51):
You think they're gonna uh strike a deal here?

Speaker 4 (37:55):
No, no, Okay, nope, because if they strike a deal,
that means nat Naho has to get back to his
criminal cases for bribery. What was a breach of trust
for the public. It's almost like a treason over there.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
You know, the UH Foreign Minister is meeting up in Geneva.
You know about this too, Yeah, but why didn't we Many, Germany, France, UK,
They're all there and we're all trying to figure this out.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
Except us. We refuse to sign the diploma. Ask you
know why two weeks?

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Why?

Speaker 4 (38:37):
What's what's the weeks? Because for some reason, if people
believe that there's going to be a nuclear weapon in
two weeks, they don't care that you're bombing the fuck
out of another country and their civilian population and everything else.
Because Israel is not using smart bombs to drop in
Iran right now, they're using the dumb bombs. And we've
given them one hundred and eighty billion dollars. Did you

(38:59):
know that we give Israel three point eight billion dollars
a year. They have free healthcare and free college and
we don't. But we give them fucking four billion dollars
a year. We don't get none of that they do.
What are we I just don't. I think they have

(39:20):
enough money and resources defend themselves. Not a fucking thing
to do with us.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
I'm just, I'm just I gotta tell you, man, the
other the other night, when this was all unraffling and
bombs are flying everywhere.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
Makes me giggle every fucking time, like because there's so
many people that are young that haven't watched this since
nineteen I mean, I was coming back from what do
you what do you mean? It makes you kick? What
do you mean? Because it's the same wardrome that they
have beaten for the past decade. For the since I've

(40:03):
been alive, it's been the same drum boom boom. Oh.
There was no weapons. There's no good targets in Afghanistan.
We have to find another country that has more targets. Oh,
Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. Let's head over there.
Let's bomb Syria, Let's bomb somebody else. Let's send drones
into Africa, like people say that we have we there

(40:27):
was no wars the last time we were everywhere we were,
we had wars in Pakistan, Syria, Africa, Iraq. We were
doing strikes in Iran, Yemen. We're everywhere. We're in. That's
why we're hated.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
Are you seeing what's going on in in eastern DRC?

Speaker 4 (40:48):
Nope? Rwanda, Oh no, not in another country.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
We've agreen this week on a draft agreement to end
all the fighting over there.

Speaker 4 (40:59):
So nice.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
There's lots of uh deals, if you will, that are
being made that aren't really making the headlines as much
as they they should.

Speaker 4 (41:14):
This is you get the head to you get the headline.
You get the headlines they want you.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
I don't know, man, it doesn't set right with me.
And you know I've said this before. If I you know,
I know.

Speaker 4 (41:26):
But what I don't understand is our intelligence. The director
of our intelligence said they are nowhere close to a
nuclear program of having a nuclear weapon. And then our
president comes out and goes, well she's a fucking idiot
and doesn't know what she's talking about. Well, why is
she the head of our intelligence? She is the person
advising you telling you that there are no nuclear weapons.

(41:48):
Remember callon Colin Powell. He told you there was no
nuclear weapons and you said, no, no, there is. Now
go convince that you win that there is. You know,
it's the same It's the same fucking story, same players,
same bullshit.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
Iran's getting getting No, they used to be our allies.
They just they just hit a hospital.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
Yeah, of course they didn't. Nobody. Well, Dan Yahoo is
charged with war crimes. There's a there's an actual warrants
for his arrest right now for him starving the people
of Gaza for war crimes that he was doing there. Like,
so we are one percent if they If we don't
like these people, we are pushing for sanctions and everything

(42:32):
else when they commit war crimes. But when Israel does it,
we don't push for any of that. We're like, well
it's Israel, they could do that. They're allowed to do
war crimes and we'll back them no matter what.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
I want to get back to uh to Barry. Yeah, yeah,
I saw something of the Barry Vermont resident chat. Yeah
from Nick Richardson. Okay, I'm guessing you you didn't. You
didn't see this, but I want to. I want to
try to play it. It's short, but are you ready

(43:07):
for this?

Speaker 4 (43:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (43:08):
Okay, look, have a look at your monitor. Check this out?

Speaker 5 (43:14):

That's my car. Your as to go with, Mike, I
know you, that's my car.

Speaker 4 (43:44):
Mhm hm.

Speaker 1 (43:48):
And there's uh, there's quite a bit of quite a
bit of praise for for Nick for basically h sticking
up for his ship, sticking up for his ship.

Speaker 4 (44:04):
Yeah. I had to stick up for myself the other day.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
This is the other one. This is the one that
if you look at your monitor you'll see it every
day lately. This vehicle sits there and they do drugs.
I don't care what people do, but it's at the
playground on River Street. Yesterday they two girls and one
guy were arguing and carrying on. They made a few
trips up and down River Street to the camper, then

(44:30):
parked again. Hope no kids go to use the playground.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
It sad.

Speaker 1 (44:36):
Do you see the You see the picture right there?

Speaker 4 (44:39):
Yep? This is uh.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
This is the kind of stuff man, that that I'm
talking about. And it's it really addiction.

Speaker 4 (44:47):
It's the same thing we've been talking about since I
was a kid. My mom was addicted to pills. I mean,
what's changing. Are we winning the war? No, are like
tougher laws helping us win the war? Killing putting the
people away forever? Is that winning the war? US sending
troops to Central America to chase around this drug dealer

(45:11):
but not that drug dealer? Is that winning the war?

Speaker 1 (45:14):
It's like all over Barry, Vermont resident chat. Here's another one. Yeah,
maybe it's time to start sharing the photos of the
vehicles dealing.

Speaker 4 (45:22):
On the streets that we shame them. Why not?

Speaker 1 (45:25):
I would there it is again, right there, I would
show I'm.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
Sure that guy. Do you remember that guy? He had
that problem with the prostitutes around his house, so he
would go out to the car with a videotape.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Yeah remember that dude, Yes, yeah, yes, absolutely. Here's here's
the one that I was talking about earlier. Gotta love
the drug dealers in Barry taxi dropping off someone to
get their fixed. The court system really sucks. What do
you job, he's a taxi driver, what do you use?
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (45:52):
Every taxi driver in every major city will bring you
to buy drugs. They know where they are. John Ryan
talks about it on his podcast.

Speaker 1 (46:03):
You see the you see the picture there you monitor?

Speaker 4 (46:06):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
The comments here are pretty intense. Chris Emmons saying nothing
is done about this because the state has given federal
grant money, oh my god.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
To help. Everything is a fucking conspira.

Speaker 1 (46:22):
The more we have on the street, the more money
they get.

Speaker 4 (46:26):
Jail.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
The dealers lose, the addicts lose, the addicts lose free money.

Speaker 4 (46:30):
Okay, so before the money. We haven't been winning the
war since the fucking nineties, since the eighties. So but
now all of a sudden, it's a political conspirat. It isn't. Man,
what do you do?

Speaker 3 (46:44):
What?

Speaker 4 (46:44):
Like? Okay, so an addict, you're gonna throw them in
jail for life because they're an addict. They did a
petty crime. You're gonna throw them in jail for life.
What what are you gonna do? Like, it's stupid start.
I don't know, man, I'm not even gonna get into it.
But no, everything is a conspiracy. It's an addiction, it's

(47:05):
it's a medical problem. It's a medical issue, and it
takes hospitalization, treatments, therapy to take care all that shit
you have. And hey, man, but don't don't get me wrong,
there are there are exceptions to every rule. You'll have
that one guy that did it, I fucking did it

(47:25):
cold turkey.

Speaker 3 (47:26):
Fuck.

Speaker 4 (47:27):
Yeah, you're a fucking stud. Good for you, man, that's awesome,
But you're not the norm. That's not I watched my
mom be pill sick. I watched my mom shit herself
puke all over the fucking place. Nah, you're good for you, man,
You're a fucking stud. Not everybody's has the has it

(47:47):
in them to win a Congressional Medal of Honor, but
there's the select few that do. And you should be
proud that you were able to do that cold turkey. Yeah,
you know, but most people can't.

Speaker 1 (47:59):
I said to to g yesterday because he was talking
about Chuck was in here too about smoking.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
Yeah, that was fucking super hard for me, man. I
quit cocaine easier than it was the well Chuck cigarette.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
Chuck, Chuck's been smoking for my god, thousands of years,
and he's got the patch and he's done that. He's
trying and he's he's struggling with it, man, and he's
he's gone a couple of months at a time, uh,
smoke free. And then he was talking yesterday on the
air about how he went out one night to Gusto's,
had a couple of drinks. Bang. He's like, I can

(48:35):
show you that I can quit. He's watch I'm going
to smoke one cigarette and then I'm going to prove
to you that I can quit. And he smoked that
one cigarette and bought and he's been smoking for back
smoking for years since then. Chuck's one of my best friends.
I love the guy. I would do anything and.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
That whether it's the cigarette addiction or a drug addict, it's.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
But she was in here sitting right next to him
on the couch saying that that that he had been
smoking for years and just decided one I.

Speaker 4 (49:08):
Could not quit, that he was going to stop. I
tried everything. I tried the gum, I tried the nicotine patches.
I tried that medicine that you would take and it
would make it so when you smoked a cigarette it
tastes like a penny bro I tried all of that.
I could not. It was a roller coaster. I'd quit
for a couple of days. I'm quit all the way
up to a month, and then and then one day

(49:28):
I was like, no, I'm done. I got rid of
all the ash trays, I got rid of everything in
my house that.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
So you were one of these people that was able
to go cold turkey.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
I tried everything before that and could not quit with it.
It was it did. I ended up. I was running
out of my medicine and I was like, I took
my last pill or whatever, and I was like, oh.
And the next day I woke up, I was like,
that's it. I'm quitting. Today today is I'm not starting
anything more. But and I had to change.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
But point is that some people can do that. Some
people can't write ye, And if you can't, you need help.
You need help, and give yourself a goddamn break. And
why don't be hard on you give people that are
trying to get help.

Speaker 4 (50:15):
Yeah, I do not my.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
I mean BRUMMERD says that he quit forty five years ago.

Speaker 4 (50:21):
And yeah, I'm probably close to thirty years now and
I quit rex. Do you still crave a cigarette? Not
at all, not even one bit.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Some people do even though they've been smoke free for years.

Speaker 4 (50:34):
No, I don't even get an urge. I don't. Wow.
It actually disgusts me to the smell of it at
this point. Oh.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
Interesting, And then there's Chuck who says he can't. You
can't even smell it, doesn't even smell the cigarette smoke.

Speaker 4 (50:48):
I remember them smoking cigarettes with your coffee in the morning.
That was like the best combination of caffeine and nicotine.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
Yeah right, that's how you How much? How much water
are you drinking these days?

Speaker 4 (50:59):
But I'll probably do close to two gallons today? What what? What? What?

Speaker 7 (51:04):
What?

Speaker 1 (51:04):
What's going on here? What actually start in the prostate?
What's what's happening?

Speaker 4 (51:09):
I'm in fight camp, all right, talk to me?

Speaker 1 (51:11):
What's happening?

Speaker 4 (51:12):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (51:13):
July twenty fifth, July.

Speaker 4 (51:15):
Twenty fifth, mass So most everybody knows my former champ,
Keegan Hornstraw, he was struck with cancer the night that
he lost his title. The very next day he found
out that he had testicular cancer. He fought that radiation,
chemo surgeries was good for almost a couple of years,

(51:36):
and then all came back, came back as a lung
cancer and it's it was spotted all over as long,
so they couldn't do it do surgeries. Hornstra Oh fuck,
he's young man, thirties. Yeah, he's in his thirties. Okay,
he's young. His son's young. They're a young family. So
one of the managers kt A Fighting kt A Jim

(51:59):
down there. She's all so a fight manager. They set
up a charity kickboxing. So there's a bunch of us
going down. If you want to donate money, you can
donate money. If you want to join, it's uh, you
can fight. I'm actually fighting a professional fighter, Mike Sosa.
Mike Sosa fought Chris Perrault for his professional debut. It

(52:20):
should be a good time. I'm training pretty hard for
it because Mike's a super tough guy, and I don't
want to I don't want to embarrass myself and I
don't want to get knocked out within ten seconds of
the fight.

Speaker 1 (52:31):
So I'm just asking a serious question. Yeah, do you
do you believe that there's a possibility that you could win?

Speaker 4 (52:43):
It's an exhibition fight, so there's no real winner or
loser right there. But uh understand, Yeah, I'm so. Let
me put it in Let's put this in perspective. Please.
I'm a fifty I'm going to be fifty two years old.
Mike So's is a professional fighter. I am one percent
not delusional in this in any way, shape or form.
Same the same way like if somebody asked me, could

(53:06):
you beat Michael Jordan in a basketball game? Nope? So
am I delusional about fighting with Mike Soza. No, I'm
just hoping that I can put on a good enough
show for the for the fans, and I mean, everybody
has a puncher's chance, but he's a trained fighter. I'm
going to do the most amount of training as I
can to prepare for this. But no, I've been doing

(53:31):
this long enough. There's a difference between a martial artist
and a fighter, and right now I'm a martial artist
and that's in a fight camp, all right. So what
I did was and there's been like a questions because
people have seen me up at Ufai training up at Ufai,
but Lucas John is my coach. I'm an instructor at

(53:54):
Granite City MMA, so people are weirded out, like don't
know what's going on because I'm trying Ufai. I'm gonna
let you all in on the big secret and why
I'm training up at Ufai, and it's not the malicious
reasons most people think of. Lucas. Chris, Matthew, Sophia are

(54:16):
all going to be in Vegas for fight week, so
Lucas is not around to corner me. So I asked
his instructor Crewe Ballard and Ed Collins to train me
for this fight and corner me for this fight. I mean,
it's just to me, it's a no brainer. If I
can't have my coach train me, and why wouldn't I

(54:39):
go to his coach who trained him for a similar fight,
so we know he can get him ready. I mean,
Lucas won his fight. So I'm training with the best
people that I can train with right now to help
me prepare in a short amount of time to try
to prepare for a professional fighter. That's all.

Speaker 1 (54:58):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (54:59):
It's that simple. It's that simple, man, it really is.
But I get private messages all the time. What is
going on is there is absolutely nothing going on. Nope,
I train there, I go there for right now. I'm
getting my cardio in with jiu jitsu and then tuesdays
and I couldn't do Thursday because my body can't go
Monday right through. I need to take a break in
between otherwise my body breaks down. So I'll be back

(55:21):
up spiring and doing lessons tonight, back up to Ufai
and then Saturday morning right back to Granite City.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Have you ever heard from anyone re Rex you ought
to take on JD and the ring.

Speaker 4 (55:37):
No, not one person has ever said that. Nope. If
you notice, the fights I take are competitive fights. If
I just wanted to win, I would set that fight up.
You're you're very confident, buddy, Yeah, hell yeah, yeah, yeah

(56:00):
I am. And you know if I were to get you,
if I were to get you in a knee bar
lock so and pass some gas right in your face,
your knee bar, it really would depend on how far
I let you get with the kneebar, because you're a
strong guy, and if I lock it up, you could
break my knee. Absolutely, of course.

Speaker 1 (56:18):
You could, especially if I blew one right in your face.
It's over.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
Buddy. My confidence gets me out of more fights than
it gets me.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
Into Mexican the night before. If I have to, there's
strategy here.

Speaker 4 (56:29):
I wouldn't. I wouldn't fight with anybody with gas. I'd
rather walk away, especially if that's your natural defense.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
I know we're all over the road this morning, but
Potter's Angels is doing a fundraiser and it's big.

Speaker 4 (56:42):
I've heard a lot of good things about them.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
Yeah, they're doing something with Jordan's Way. It's a big fundraiser,
and right here it says if we reach fifteen dollars.

Speaker 4 (56:54):
My dog kind of forgot about her. She found a
dark space to hide and go to sleep.

Speaker 1 (57:01):
Do you think that's what's happening.

Speaker 4 (57:03):
She's well, she's three pounds. She's scared of everything. So
they're like chickens. If you, if you ever know you
put a chicken out in a wide open enclosure, they
go fucking nuts because there's no place to hide.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Kidder's saying that I'm gonna beat your ass in a
hot dog eating competition.

Speaker 4 (57:18):
He's talking to you, JD, not me. Oh, I don't
eat hotdogs.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
If they reach if they reach their goal of fifteen
hundred bucks, I'm going to be apparently having a dog
lick wet dog food off of my face.

Speaker 4 (57:34):
Oh it made good.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
Probably this is happening Sunday. And there's a link to
donate right there and everyone so and if they raise
more than that, I can't remember how much, but if
it's significantly more than that, I'm gonna eat dog food.

Speaker 4 (57:54):
Dude. The smell of it would like I have a
really bad easy gag reefing. If somebody starts throwing I
start throwing.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
Out, like I can't g and Chuck and I were
talking about what's in wet dog food like, what's what's
in there? What's in there?

Speaker 4 (58:10):
They let me tell you a funny story.

Speaker 1 (58:12):
Other than pick lips.

Speaker 4 (58:14):
Talking about So, my daughter has the same kind of
gag reflex, like the simple thing. Ever since she was
a kid, she was as always like it is easy
to make her throw up. So my niece, yeah, and
my daughter were over there, they were playing. They were little.
My son was a baby. So I am changing his diaper.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
And wait, who Hunter?

Speaker 4 (58:41):
Yeah, all right, so I'm changing.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
Talking right now on the air about Hunter Thompson's diaper. Yes, okay,
I just wanted to make sure.

Speaker 4 (58:52):
Twenty four years ago, I was changing his diaper and
my niece was there, and they were probably four or
five years old, and I just so I had a
clean di I just watched jackass. I watched him do this.
I was like, this is perfect. So I have a
I have a clean diaper with chocolate pudding in it, right,

(59:14):
and I have his dirty diaper. So I grabbed the
dirty diaper and I was like, what the hell has
Hunter been eating? And I stuffed it down beside me,
and now both the girls look at me. They're like,
what what do you mean? And so now I have
this diaper that's full of chocolate pudding. And I'm like,
I keep sniffing it, and they're going to stop doing that.
So they're starting to gag. Yeah, so I'm I get

(59:40):
my nose. I was like, no, it's I can't I
can't determine what it is hunter eight. I was like, oh,
I know how I can tell. So I rubbed it
all the way up. It took a big lick.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
Oh you're working it.

Speaker 4 (59:51):
Oh my god, I had this chocolate buddy smeared all
over my face.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
You're not just spoon feeding it.

Speaker 4 (59:56):
Oh no, I was like, scramb legs, that's what it is.

Speaker 5 (01:00:02):
Do.

Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
My daughter puked in the living room my forties, didn't
you really? I can't die laughing. If I could get
my daughter to puke, it was I just thought that
was the funniest, oh my god thing and the world. Yes.

(01:00:23):
So I used to do things like so my kids
invited a bunch of friends over. And if you take
a wet paper towel, you take a wet paper towel,
roll and you you you wet it down, then you
rip it up into pieces and you roll it in
your hand. Looks just like a dog turn Okay, So
my kids are over. They got a bunch of friends
over this. Oh, yes, you do this to Lily. You

(01:00:45):
don't tell Lily, don't let her watch this episode. So
you do this to wear. So they have all the
friends over. I roll my little piece over and I
stuff it under the table and then I start screaming
all the kids, you'll get out here.

Speaker 8 (01:00:56):
I am so sick of this. Every time you have
friends over here. You ignored the dog and he ships
on the floor. And so my kids are like, Dad,
you know, calm down, we'll clean it up. I was like, nope,
I got it.

Speaker 4 (01:01:08):
I grabbed it with my hand and I was like, oh,
I'll show you, and I threw it in my mouth.
My kids instantly knew what I was doing. Their friends
had no clue. They were like, all took off running.
They thought that I had lost my mind and I
just ate a piece of dog shit because I was
so angry about the dog shit on the floor. Yes,

(01:01:34):
So if you want to torture your kids, that's that's
how you do.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Oh wow, yeah, so great, I'm gonna do that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:52):
I am going to do. It's perfect pranks. It really is, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
I I haven't had a chance to show you. Yet
I want to show you. Look at these y look that.

Speaker 4 (01:02:08):
Get the fuck out of here. Get that, let's get that.
Stop stop nonsense, just look stop look with your eyes. No, irony, no,
I don' want to see you narrowly toes.

Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
Lily did such a nice job, she said, Dad, you know,
the first day of summer is coming, which is today,
by the way, Happy summer. She's like, you really need
to we need to really spruce things up a little bit.
She's like, well, we need to paint your nails. So
we were looking at the there was like a hot

it was like a hot pink, and then there was
like a fluorescent yellow or green or something like that,
you know, summertime colors.

Speaker 4 (01:02:54):
Yea.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
So she decided to go with the hot pink, sparkly toenails.
So that's what I'm walking around with now, you know
what I'm comforting.

You know, it's twenty twenty five. You might as have
just come out, man. Nobody cares. Nobody cares. Jad, I'm

and I'll I'll share it over right now. It says
right here. One of our buildings got broken into last
night and they stole a ton of miscellaneous items of ours,

(01:04:14):
but most importantly, they stole a bike that belongs to
a hard working kid and some fishing equipment from a
real stand up guy. We obviously would like everything back,
but our top priority is this bike and the fishing equipment.
Please keep your eyes out for these items.

Speaker 4 (01:04:33):
Did you see them? Damn kids that stole that bicycle
and threw it in the river over there over by.
Uh yes, I heard about it, dude. And then the
kids like, where are your parents? I'm telling you right now,
my kids that I would bring them down public. I'd
beat their ass on TV, dude, this guy on they
would apologize, they'd work all summer long and buy that
kid a new bike.

Desperate people, they'll do extreme shit.

Speaker 2 (01:05:29):

Speaker 4 (01:05:32):
We do realize the correlation with desperation, robberies, addiction, desperation. Like,
the more desperate people we have around here, the more
crime you're gonna have, the more petty crimes you'll have,
stuff like that, You know what I mean? So how

(01:05:52):

Good for you for doing that. You know, if if
if somebody ever stole Lili's little eighty five, it would absolutely.

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
Listen, today's the longest day of the year, so don't
waste it. Get out and do something good with your
life today.

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
I'm gonna I want to go get punched in the face.

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
I see you got a black eye there.

Speaker 4 (01:08:27):
Yeah, that wasn't even from being punched in the face.

Speaker 7 (01:08:30):
I'll give you that elbowed in if I have to
give you ju jitsu, I'll give you the other one
if you want it, so you can match, bitch, I'll
do it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:45):
What happened, eh, Louis hit me with an elbow? Okay,
talking about confidence, man, once again, My confidence gets me
out of more stuff, then gets me into stuff, if
that makes sense. I had too. Yeah, one hundred percent.

(01:09:07):
I had an incident. I had a guy like super
aggressive come after me and my son in my truck.
Are you shitting me? No? I was actually hold on,
I got to hear this.

Speaker 1 (01:09:16):
What happened?

Speaker 4 (01:09:17):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
I was it just you know, just yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:09:21):
No.

Speaker 4 (01:09:22):
So I was up here. I was up on a
back road and this guy, obviously it was his first
day in an excavator and he was trying to clear
the ditches. I didn't know that he was the road foreman.
I had no clue. But anyway, I was sat there
and I waited because he didn't know how to have
flagman or ditch and he was trying to fill a truck.
So we waited probably twenty twenty five minutes, and we're

(01:09:44):
parked on a hill and they finally waved us by.
We finally get by. I go by and my truck
I have. I have a one ton. My tires are
bald in the bag. Not a big deal, but I
guess it spun or whatever. I didn't think anything of it.
So I go up, I meet with the customer. I
come back through and this guy starts screaming at me.
I stopped my truck. I thought like he didn't want
me to go buy the excavator or something. I thought, well,

(01:10:07):
he jumped out of that excavator and started screaming at me.
I was like, I thought he wanted to fight with
me on the side of the road and I and
I had my son with me, so I instantly got
out of my truck because he was big. He was
he was probably about big ed size. And I was like, Oh,
I don't know what you're doing, but uh, you're not

(01:10:29):
gonna talk to me. I don't know who you think you're.
You're not a cop, You're not He's like, I don't
know who the fuck you are, and you're gonna and
I was like, well, number one, you're definitely not gonna
talk to me like that in an aggressive manner. Get
down off your excavator so we talk like men. If
that's what you want to do, I said, Otherwise, if
you continue doing that, I said, we're you know if
you if you come aggressively at me anymore, I'm gonna

(01:10:51):
take your teeth out of your head.

Speaker 1 (01:10:52):
So you weren't trying to be a tick? You were, No,
I was super calm. I had with spinning your tires.

Speaker 4 (01:10:58):
No, not at all. I didn't even care. I was like, hey, idiot,
I didn't want to tell you you're a moron that
you don't know how to run an excavator, but whatever, dude.
But I could not believe he was a road forman,
and I could not believe the way like, you're not
a cop, you're not. You don't aggressively go after people
like that. I thought he wanted to, Like I seriously,
the way that he was acting and being so aggressive,

(01:11:19):
I thought he really wanted to fight. And I was like, well,
I'm not gonna sit in my truck and wait for
some big dude to punch me in a face. We're
gonna be right here, and I'm gonna defend myself and
so just but so then it made me realize, Like
as soon as I stood up to him, all of
a sudden, I realized he was a bully. I was like, ah,
I get it. You're used to intimidating people and getting

(01:11:41):
your way. I thought you really wanted to fight with me,
So I got out to defend myself. But then once
you saw that I wasn't backing down from you, all
of a sudden, the dude turned into a pacifist. I
was like, no, man, you don't like so. I never
had to throw a punch, never had nothing. But I'm afraid,
like if it had been someone weaker that cowered down

(01:12:02):
to him, he would have continued on being that that aggressive.

Speaker 1 (01:12:06):
Or somebody that was high on drugs, right right.

Speaker 4 (01:12:10):
I mean, what if you had had a smaller person
that was in fear. What happens? Then they pull their
gun out and shoot you because and you may not
have meant to be that aggressive or didn't think of
it in that type of a situation, But if you're
a smaller person, then you don't know how to defend yourself.
You only have one resource, to defend yourself, and that's lethality, right,

(01:12:31):
So it's just with that. Like I said, I'm sure
that guy was used to talking to people like that,
and I was not that person, and I was never
I didn't raise my voice. I didn't. I was just
pretty confident. And also I'm standing outside there with a
black eye, so obviously I like to fight.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
Listen, today being the first day of summer, why haven't
we been invited out on Big Kenny's boat yet?
