Speaker 1 (00:00):
Flags Great America. No, it's called six Flags over Texas.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
What do they call it there, Well, they called it
a lot of things.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Anyway, in Dallas Arlington they had they had a roller
coaster shut down.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Everyone had to walk down the scary way? Was it
the one that does the double loop? I do love
the loops?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I mean I you know, did when I was younger,
hadn't rolled a roller coaster in a number of years.
And they say the older you get, the less you're
likely to like them because you get them problems with
your ear, you know, you can't keep your balance and
maybe you want to throw up or whatever.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, I get that. That's happened to man.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
When I was a kid, we'd get the After World,
Disney or six Flags or whatever it. Ride the hell
out it in roller coasters.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Well, we were just watching these guys walk down the
from the tippy tippy top of the roller coaster is
AOC would say, walking down the stairs having to hold
on to the railing. It looked pretty freaky. And then
Steve informs all of us that he did that in
the rain once in New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
No, in Houston, in Houston Astro World, Astro World, it
was June fifteenth, nineteen seventy six, and it was a
severe flooding. The flooding hadn't started yet, it just started raining.
And I was with a bunch of people right after
graduation from high school in our bi centennial year, by
the way, and we went to Astro World, got on
(01:16):
the roller coaster, won the big one there were more
than one, There was more than one, and got up
to the tippy tippy top wow, and then it stopped.
I don't know if lightning hit it, or if somebody
decided it would be a bad idea to let it
keep going in the rain with lightning flashing all around.
And they said, everybody get out and walk. There's stairs,
(01:38):
little metal stairs right alongside the little roller coaster track.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
And we walked down the stairs.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Of course, being eighteen and dumb as they come at
that time, I thought it was really exciting. Nobody thought
about how it was death defying at the moment.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
How could that be safer then just riding everybody down
to the eye good question. If only there was some
way we could get these passes. Jerry's on the roller coaster,
off of the ride quickly.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Quickly, Yeah, well, let it finish that would have been
one way.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
What the whole roller coaster rise? What forty five seconds?
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Now, everybody, get off, walk down, put your hands on
this metal bar that's high in the air.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
During a lightning storm.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
It ended up raining approximately thirteen inches that day in Houston.
And as you know, even fifty years ago, god it
was fifty years ago next month. Anyway, Who that's a
long time.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Hear that, mister.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Thirteen inches. That's a lot, isn't it? Is it? Most
people think? So it's celebrity birthday time on a Monday morning.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
You knew, well, this day in history could have could
have been one of those exciting times. Only it's not
the date of the flood yet. But you remind us
on June fifteenth in a month, and we'll get around
to talking about that. Sock it to me wa meantime.

He's thirty four today. Jack Johnson, Oh the singer. Okay,
(03:24):
I thought they were talking about that, that fighter from Galveston. No,
he's that laid back kind of guy. Better Together, Remember
the song Better Together? Not really, it's fifty one Tina Fey,
fifty six.
Speaker 2 (03:38):

good pope.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
He was born on the state nineteen twenty and I'm
dead over twenty years.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I miss having a good pope.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
It's been a while we has, We've had a few
really disappointing popes.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Pope John Paul. Just he did it right.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Can't you Catholic? Can't you talk to people? Tell him
to start acting right? Okay, as you know, I'm a
good one. Next time, two.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Things happen when I talk about how I'm Catholic on
this show. Either I'm not Catholic enough or I'm too Catholic.
That's the point of religion is that there's always someone listening.
It's like, ah, Kenny was at a gay wedding, how
could he be Catholic? And then there's someone else they're like,
you Catholics are ruining the world. Yeah, Like, all right, guys,
my mom was Catholic. Give me a break.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You have any dirty dishes in your sink right now? Well?
Speaker 1 (05:29):
I do, but that's because my cleaning lady's coming today.
I wanted to, you know, oh, give her something, some job.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Security, earn her money. Well, I hate you know it is.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
Today is National No Dirty Dishes Day and also National
Visit Your Relatives Day, maybe to check and see if
they've got any dirty dishes.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
In the same so skip the sink and use paper plates. Today,
kids eat out order in National No Dirty Dishes Day.
It's also National Cheese souf flay Day. Huh Cheese souffle. Well,
chocolate is the way to go if you get on them.
Soux fleas and the.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Fancy restaurants around here will make them, but you gotta
know ahead of time order it because it takes like
an hour and a half to get it.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
And it's I Love Recee's Day, a day when we
celebrate a candy that barely qualifies as peanut butter because
it's got so much sugar in it. And National HIV
Vaccine Awareness Day, National Speech Pathologists Day, Supply Chain Professional Day,
National Visit Your Relatives Day, International Museum Day, Mother Whistler Day,
and Send an Electronic Greeting Card Day.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
There's really no point to it anymore, is there? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Why even bother that can't just pick one or two
and then put the rest aside. Yeah, too many things
and not enough days. Yeah, too many things, and not
enough days. Indeed, speak enough this day and the day
of days. That day is this day in history, and
it's brought to you by law Tiggers do really good
(06:56):
work for the folks into motorcycle riding business. I've seen
a bunch of motorcycles out enjoying, you know, a little
country time. The roads up in Grimes County are twisty
and turney, and a lot of times they'll follow the river,
the creeks or whatnot, and motorcycle riders love to open
it up on them turns.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Man.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
That's why we had signs posted here and there. You know,
this is how many motorcyclists died at this point since
nineteen sixty eight or something like that.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
All right, today in history, why don't we start out
with this, mine's eighteen o eight. What are you guys?
Starting with sixteen fifty two? You go first?
Speaker 3 (07:30):
America's first. Let's just say, anti slavery law was passed,
was it sixteen fifty two? And yet they just kept
on having slavery. It was Rhode Island, Rhode Island.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I had that.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
This shows it nobody cares what Rhode Island does.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
It's barely even as big as Katie, Texas. Why is
that a state.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
It took over two hundred years after Rhode Island said
no slavery that we ended up with no slaves.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Today, in eighteen oh eight, Kentucky pioneer Baptist preacher and
distiller Elijah Craig passed away.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
You know, he's still making a good bourbon drinking whisky.
So you know who he is, Eli Craig. Yeah, he's
got a name on the bottle.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Today.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
In eighteen sixty three, the Siege of Vicksburg began in Mississippi.
For forty seven days. Confederate forces defended this vital Mississippi
River stronghold with an unmatched Southern grid encouraged during the
War between the States.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Right then, Yeah, very uncivilized civil war today.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
In eighteen seventeen, Congress passed the Selective Service Act, enabling
the draft as American.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Entered World War One. The draft of who men, yeah,
young man, wait, just men? Well about the women, don't
we want to treat them fair and equal?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Well, we wanted to win the war, belly. You know
we could have had it well off. That was over
one hundred years ago.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Today they won't bring that selective service bat you know
the draft. I think they've got to include women and
the trans women.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Especially the most important women.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, all of a sudden, there won't be any trans
people anymore that would do it, that would do that,
would take care of that.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Today.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
In nineteen ten, earth passed through the Tale of Haley's Comet.
Millions panicked fearing doomsday, but it passed through harmlessly. Just
like everything else, there's always someone at every point in
history who earns a living by telling you the world's
going to end soon.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
How much do they make? I mean, it gotta be
a lot. I guess it's.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Us think there'd be more people doing it, though if
it was really you know, you get paid a lot.
Well often is the case. It's a cult leader, and
being a cult leader is a lot of work. But
boy or they're perks. Uh yeah, yeah, well unless you
join them, you know, like Jim Jones died along with
his people.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Today the nineteen fifty three boy I love this one,
pioneering aviator Jackie Cochran became the first woman to break
the sound barrier. Shoutouts to Jackie, outstanding and all she
had to do was talk her husband's ear off.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
That's what that means.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Right, Yeah, when she broke the Soundbarry, do you think
she called back to her crew chief and said, oh my.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
God, I'm scared. Shuck it Ducky Walton and Johnson Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
A moment ago, we had criticized Tucker Carlson on the
show because he got friendly with Cutter and Russia. And
I think most would probably agree Russia and Cutter are
not America's closest allies.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
But it does beg the question.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Is Ukraine a better ally than Russia would have technically been?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Ain't no difference between him? Really?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I know, I'm sure this gets a little tricky, right,
It's doesn't really have to be one or the other.
I think that's a mistake we often make.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Right.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Russia is probably not our friend anymore, but I don't
think Ukraine is either.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Russia was never our friend.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Right, That's exactly right. I'm glad you'll paying attention. Nice
to say, I'd like it. Space diplomacy, Uh huh. I
know they sucker you right in they tell you friend
friend friend, and when they're shaking your hand over here
and they're stabbing you in the back with the other hand,
like Dad, just In and out the thing I always
noticed about Russia and Ukraine. Very beautiful women, but then
(11:07):
the men always look like they just got stung by
a bee. Yeah right, real little eyes, big cheeks to see.
What's just vodka? I mean, just a lifetime of too
much vodka?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
All right?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Tell me what AOC did? What's this all about?
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Well, we noticed over the weekend AOC had some comments
to make about the redistricting. She's not a fan as
you might have imagined, and it seems as though she's
actually trying to instigate the next civil war between the
North and the South. Where is she in this video?
(11:41):
She's given a speech.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
I'm not sure where she had that.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
They surrounded her by what appears to be some kind
of a bullet proof or resistant glass collect she's in
the popemobile. Uh. Do people really fear that somebody wants
to take a shot at AOC or is this her
way of trying to generate some idea of importance that
she doesn't naturally have.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Okay, so AOC is giving a speech over the weekend
in front of glass, bulletproof glass, like she's the pope
or something, and basically it sounds like she's declaring war.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
On the South. But why don't you guys decide well,
listen to make sure.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
That we all understand that Montgomery is not alone, that
you all are not alone. And for all of those
watching today when they ask what do we do in
this moment?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Montgomery, I feel helpless? Alabama action can I take?
Speaker 4 (12:37):
It is time for the North to pull up to
the South, for New York to pull up to Alabama, Alabama,
for all of us to come to Georgia, to Louisiana,
to Tennessee, to Mississippi and let them alone exactly what
(12:57):
they have on court with these in justice they can
draw us.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
You guys, hear what she did there.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
They're trying to draw us out of existence by redrawing
the map. Anybody point out to AOC that California just
readrew their map? Were they trying to draw the Democrats
out of existence?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
It does sound like the Republicans are winning the Gerrymander
war right now. I'm still impressed that she didn't only
the word Alabama.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah, because she is known for doing this.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
I'm proud to be a bartender. Ain't nothing wrong with that?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Ain't men?
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I don't feel no ways, tut I come too far
this is where she learned it.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Here I started from, there's nothing wrong with working retail,
folding clothes for other people to buy by it.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
What is that?
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Nobody told me that the road would be easy.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
No, there is nothing wrong with preparing the food that
your neighbors eats. The guy in the background, Well, I
got bad news for little idiot AOC. The Supreme Court
apparently just ruled this morning. Already up and hard at work.
Supreme Court says, we are going to allow Alabama to
(14:19):
implement their new congressional map, citing President against against racial
jerry mandering. So AOC is far all the racial jerry
mandarin But the Supreme Court says no. And of course
she naturally thinks she knows more and is better than
(14:39):
the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Sure, I mean, after all, AOC is a barista. She
knows everything.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
She knows all about the world and how it really works. Well,
everything is very stupid today, Well on this day in history.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
Earlier, we left out something that I was going to mention,
if the computer would just cooperate with me for a minute.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Where did I put it? Now? It was just here
a second.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Oh, Mount Saint Helen's erupted on this date in nineteen
eighty killing fifty seven people. That's not the exciting part.
But people love it when volcanoes go off, unless they're
real close to it. And on that same day, in
nineteen seventy four, India became the sixth nation of the
world to detonate an atomic bomb. Yeah, India has had
(15:27):
one for over fifty years. You think they'd be joining us.
You know when people say Iran should never have a
nuclear weapon, and maybe they are, but they just quiet
about it.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
They really don't want people in the nuclear club because
look at North Korea could pop off and do whatever
they want.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
We aren't doing anything about that, but we will bomb Iran.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Well, so far, North Korea's mostly sent their test missiles
into the ocean. I don't know if they're tricking us,
if they can really hit the target and they're missing
on purpose, so that we all drop our guard and
go North Korea and then one day boom, big surprise.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
What do you think would be worse for the average
person listening to this show, and I include the people
in this room in that question.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
We're all pretty average around here.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Democrats taking control of the government again or Iran getting a.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Hold of a nuke.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
That's pretty much a fifty to fifty right there, you think,
so six to one and a half a dozen of another.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I feel like if the Democrats taken over the government
would be worse.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
It would be probably quicker. A terrible outcome would happen
much faster, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Well, like that guy in.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Tyler that's running, there's a lot of Democrats out there
just waiting for that opportunity to impeach Trump. But you know,
they got to win some elections first.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
All right.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
In the meantime, we have very gay news. It's the
best kind.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Isn't it. Abraham Enriquez, a thirty one year old Republican
congressional candidate in the Texas nineteenth runoff West Texas District
including Lebbeck is facing off against Tom Sell in May
twenty six primary runoff that's starting a very soon. Early
voting starts today. However, an ex lover Mett Grind on
Grinder back almost a decade ago, which one grinder Grinder's
(17:08):
the gay data, That's what I thought. Abraham and Rique
Is was a student body vice president Abilene Christian University,
but he was on Grinder doing gay stuff.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
According to this report here.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
The source says Enrique has struggled with coming out and
calls his public life hypocritical. Abraham has positioned himself as
a strong Christian conservative, anti LGBTQ, except in the bedroom,
where he seems to be pro LGBTQ, at least some
of it. His endorsements from Greg Abbott and other state
legislatures put him in the lead right now according to
(17:43):
most polling data, but they have not considered in the
panandle what happens when you're a closet at homosexual.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Yeah, low profile runoff. No one's really talking about this race.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
But we do need to go and vote starting today.
And again we'll remind you next Monday's holiday. In the
day after that is election day, and so you're not
gonna feel like voting next Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yeah, And then Louisiana, you're not done. I know you
did a good job.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
You did good work this past weekend, but coming up
in June, you got to make a decision between the
two Republicans that are left over after we get Cassidy
out of the way, which is you know, fine and
we're not here to you know, tell you to lean
one way or the other different opinions on both. Really,
(18:32):
it just depends on who you talk to. Some will
say that she is just a female Cassidy, But then
if Cassidy voters have to go somewhere else, wouldn't they
go to the female Cassidy right at the time. But
then they're also saying that the guy flying we talked
to both of them last week, that Fleming is well,
(18:53):
I don't know where's Casside voters going.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Right.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
In the primary election that just ended, Letlow came in
first place but didn't secure fifty percent of the vote,
so now there's going to be a runoff between her
and Fleming. Fleming supporters often describe Letlow as being a
female version of Cassidy.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
So where do Cassidy's votes go? There you go.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
If what they're saying is true, that would suggest the
Cassidy votes all go towards Letlo. But Cassidy voters tend
to be anti Landry, and Letlo is pro Landry. So
the end of the day, I think, well, he was
pro Letlo rent exactly. So at the end of the day,
I think what this really tells us is no one knows.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
I think some of the voters for Cassidy might be
older people who might tend to vote for a man
over a woman. As wrong as that would be, you
got to say that, Yeah, they might do that.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Who is the anti deep state candidate, who is the
anti importing illegal immigrants and giving him more rights than
us candidate, Who is the anti spying on American citizens
with government resources candidate? Who is the anti third world
country candidate? That's what I want to know.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
They'll probably tell you. Oh, me, me, no, me me,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Does it ever feel like the government's creating the problems
and then offering us a solution that's worse than the problem,
So suddenly we get a worse problem.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Can we just discuss that on Friday?
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, And we played this SoundBite early in the show
on Friday, and I wanted to play it late.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
In the show. I want to hear it again. Oh,
while you're in luck.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
If you think about it, it's a perfect example of
problem reaction solution. Governments deliberately import vast numbers of criminally
prone people from foreign countries. They deliberately allow once well functioning,
high trust society to degenerate into low trust, crime ridden dumps,
and the public clamors for Blade Runner style authoritarianism to
(20:40):
fix it, all massively empowering the same government that caused
the problem in the first place.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Plates Stay tuned for more Watman Johnson
