Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Last week, while we were discussing Israel, somebody wrote an email,
a text, was it a tweet?

Speaker 2 (00:05):
It was a tweet, and.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
They said, you're being too nice to the Jays this morning.
I thought we were making fun of the J's at
the time.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
But that's still too nice. You gotta bemeaner.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
But you know, some people, even some Maga guys, they
feel that Donald Trump is a little too nice to
the J's. They think, why is he so nice to
the Jays. He's making a big deal out of this
anti Semitism stuff. And I I will tell you I'm
not Jewish. I'm not part of the culture war for
defending the rights of Jews. But I will say this
headline I'm reading from Harvard this morning sounds it sounds

(00:39):
a little suss as the kids would say.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Okay, did Lahore put this headline out? No?

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Is that Lahore?

Speaker 1 (00:46):
What's the well, you're right, there's a professor named Lahore
Magistine Yeah at Harvard. Yeah, No, that's not who this was. Okay,
I kick, I didn't think this was real. This is
an actual news story headline. A lot of people to
think Lahore is real, but she is totally real. Yeah, totally.
They have a drag queen at Harvard, Lahore la Horror

(01:06):
Lahore Oragistan.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
There's a stand like in the country or steam like
in well, never mind.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Are they making fun of Muslims or Jews? I don't sure.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Well, I wish they'd stop whatever it is. I'm sure
we all. She spells it, you know, with the W yeah,
like it's it's it's whore.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah, go and fall into it.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Fall anyway, here's an actual news story today, Harvard professor
fire's pellet gun near synagogue on eve of Yam Kapoor
and I'm gonna do it dot dot dot here. If
that's all the headline was, you might think we're overreacting.
The rest of the headline is claiming to be hunting rats. Okay,

(01:46):
wait what hang on a second here. First of all,
I know a little bit about pellet guns. I used
to use one as a child to like, you know,
shoot squirrels and stuff. I'm not proud of that, but
that's what I did. And uh, I'm can't killing anybody
with it. But on the other hand, it's not put
an eye out. Put an eye out?

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Right? What was he intending to do? Exactly?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
You're driving around, it's nighttime, you're by a synagogue, you
have a palate gun, and you're hunting rats. Now that
just sounds like a crazy person, No, Harvard professor, Yeah,
that's that's what they do up and have it all right. Well,
well anyway, maybe Trump was right as all.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
I'm so surprise you just jumped right off into the
show without any introduction or anything. Can he be in
a big star in the stand up comedian world? Now
HiT's the stage and normally he gets a big introduction,
you know, the I don't know if you pay the
guy in the booth or what you know, but I'll

(02:46):
give you an intro if you will. You know, ladies
and gentleman, fresh off a red hot comedy tour raising
Buddy for Wheelchairs or Warriors, the big star last night's show.
We're over thirty five thousand. How much fablish was raised?
Thirty five over thirty five thousand dollars raised? Uh for
a great foundation Wheelchairs for Warriors, the one, the only,

(03:08):
the amazing Kidny.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
Oh yeah, hang on, I mean my intro music, yeah,
very oft whole time. Oh that's right, we did a
comedy show last night. I shouldn't have just dove right
into the news. Hi, good morning everyone. Is how we
should have done there, you go, I know it's a lot.
You're gonna start the show with anti semitism. That's how
this show starts. You haven't even slipped yet, have you.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
No, When you come off a big show like that,
you're all amped up like a rock star that just
walked out from you know, performing in front of fifty
thousand screaming fans. It's pretty much the same thing.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Steve and I I didn't We didn't even really do
stand up. Steve and I hosted last night, you know,
because you know, pick a lane, you know what I mean.
We were hosting and it was great. Steve and I
did some jokes on stage, but it was mostly about
the comedians. And by the way, if you were one
of the people that was there last night that thought
we would not be on the air this morning, ha
ha see there, they're probably not. Yeah, wow, why would

(04:01):
they be? They was they were at a comedy show
last night. Why would they be on here? Why would
they be listening? They're still wrung out, just just tired.
You're right, we should have started with that. We had
a huge event last night. We over sold.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
In the past, whenever we do these events, we'll sell
a lot of tickets and not like everyone doesn't show up,
you know what I mean, will sell. You know, let's
say we sell four hundred tickets and three hundred people
will go because it's a charity show, so there's always
a little room in.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
The back or whatever, and there's always somebody that planned
to go that couldn't make it for some whatever reason,
you know, so you always tend to sell a few more.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Last night wasn't quite like that.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
We oversold last night's show, and still most people showed up.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
So if you were one of.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
The people that did not get a vip seed, even
though you paid for it, I do apologize. I offered
to buy drinks for all those people, but nobody took
me up on it. Huh, I'll take one, can I should?
I read the email and one person did not like
the show. We got an email, and you could tell
this as an older woman because she sent the same
email three times in a row. But with like she

(05:04):
couldn't tell that her email went through shit, let me
try it again one more time. She said, I'm sorry,
but we had to leave after the second act. It
was vulgar and disgusting, is what the first email says.
The second one says, I'm sorry, but the first two
acts were disgusting and we had to leave. And then
a third email says, I'm sorry, but the first two
were embarrassing. We left, and then I said, I apologize
because I'm a you know, it's an email.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Just be nice. I'm sorry about that. We were No,
I didn't mean it.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
No, for sure, I apologize if the show offended you.
We were trying to raise money for disabled vets. Sometimes
stand up comedy can be a bit risky. And then
she said, we did leave a donation for the vet's.
I thought it was going to be a clean comedy show.
I appreciate the tickets, thank you. I'm not sure what
made her think it was going to be clean.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, we never said that.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
In fact, the first thing I do when I come
out on stage is I tell a joke about lab
rats having a sodomy. Yeah, and then I explain everyone
if that joke didn't offend you, cool.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
If it did, no big deal. Well must have offended her.
Probably said off on the wrong start of the night.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
It was actually she sat through our bit, and then
Eric and Ole's a funny veteran.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
I like him a lot. I think he's really good.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
He's a marine, we've had him more than once. A
great guy. And then Jesse Peyton and she did not
make it to Chad Pray for she left.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
That's too bad. She missed a good second half of
the show.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
Chad was great, right, Yeah, it was a really good night,
and we made enough money to pay for a little
more than three wheelchairs. John Hooper from Houston Conservative for
Him comes up to me and he's like, how how
much are these wheelchairs Kenny, and I was like, well,
they're tens of thousands of.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Dollars, different prices depending on the need of the particular Warrior.
They're all custom made. But it was nice to see
they've got more than three people waiting on wheelchairs for
So we're still trying to figure out how to make
enough money to get everybody on their waiting list a wheelchair.
And we whittled it down, but we're not done.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
It's kind of like, unfortunately, trying to pick up every
crane of sand off the beach with some chopsticks. Yeah,
takes a long time. Crystal was there from wheelchairs for Warriors.
We started the comedy show off with Crystal telling us
a story about a VAT veteran who needed a wheelchair,
and she was brought to tears on stage, and that's
a great way to start a comedy show.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
She brought herself to tears, she did.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
We didn't make her cry, but.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
Yeah, I made her happy that we were able to
help out some disabled vets. And then for the rest
of the joke the night, middle aged men making jokes
about their genitals. Love that, Yeah, because that's how we
pay for wheelchairs. Some people throw Galla's not us.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
It seems fair.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Monday, Mooney, it's one there.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
How was your weekend not nearly long enough? Walton and
Johnson Radio Network.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
I'm pre interesting choice of tunes this morning.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Well, I had two things I wanted to say here
that are very important. Number One, thank you to Drew
for buying the sombrero that we sold on stage last
night to raise money.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
For wheelchairs for Warriors.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Have a sombrero on stage because everybody's been wearing some
in those funny memes with Hacke and Jefferies.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Hakim doesn't care for it. He doesn't find it funny.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
At all, which makes it hilarious to the rest of us.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
That is just and people don't get it. Why are
they putting?

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Why are they superimposing, photoshopping ai ing?

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Is that a verb?

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Sobreros Onto Hakim Jeffries, the House Minority leader, on social media,
and I think it's just because it's funny. Yeah, but
it has to do with the government shutdown and healthcare
for illegals. So that's one thing we wanted to say
when we came back from break really important. The other
is Congressman Wesley Hunt has just announced he is running
for Senator of Texas against Ken Paxton and John Cornyn.

(08:39):
Ooh interesting, and we will get the first interview this morning.
He will be here at eight thirty am.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
Very nice. So did we just ruin his big announcement? No,
it's in the AP right now?

Speaker 1 (08:51):
Oh okay, Yeah, the Associated Press technically broke the story.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
We didn't, but didn't Why didn't you break the stories
earlier than the AP. It's a race, kinny, not about accuracy.
It's about who's first.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
Are you suggesting I have some inside knowledge about what's
going on in the thought perhaps you might have. I
can neither confirm nor deny that I knew this was
going to happen. I had an idea, I didn't really
no one really knew. I don't even know if they
really knew. There was a point where I talked to
all these guys. Honestly, I like Wesley Hunt a lot.
He's a friend. I like Ken paxt Did a lot.
I think he's great too. I'd be happy to see

(09:24):
either of them beat John Cornyn. But I you mean
in the in the race, Yes, of course, that's what
or no.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Especially has a better shot at that.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
I think, Well, there is always this question.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
We asked, would it be great if instead of having elections,
politicians would just wrestle each other like royal rumble style,
especially a primary. Oh yeah, Louisiana has a thing called
jungle primaries, and that's pretty you know, cutting edge by
political standards. But wouldn't a royal rumble be more interesting?
Just put them all in the ring together? Now, we

(09:59):
kind of had an ide the other was going to happen,
but we didn't really know. Some of he's been running
ads all over the state of Texas on TV in
Dallas and stuff where he's not a congressman, and clearly
isn't planning to move. So it gave a lot of
people the impression Wesley was going to do something, but
it was also possible he was just trolling John Cornyn, right,
because Wesley for a congressman, he's very popular. A lot

(10:20):
of people donate to his campaign, he has a lot
of supporters, and he had the resources to do it.
You know, a lot of congressmen don't.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
He did.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
And Wesley is a guy who has you know, been
shot at by terrorists and flew a helicopter into a
war zone. And for the record, there are some politicians
who claim they've done that and they've not.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
Yeah, and you can almost still by looking at him
some of the times the ones who.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Have not right that, No, you just don't see it.
But he really did. He's the real deal. One of
his buddies, we have a lot of mutual friends.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Infact, they said, when he comes up to the station,
he wants to repel out of a hovering helicopter onto
the roof of the building and then come on in.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
That that would be really good for the show.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Or maybe a window, you know, just like have a
window that we could one of those Hollywood windows you
could break and it doesn't really cut you.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Yeah, because you know you tried that. It's not Hollywood.
You just getted up bouncing off that window.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
For those that don't live in Houston, there's an area
here in our city called Washington Avenue where all the
bars are and not all of them a lot because
the street is all bars, but there are bars on
other streets.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Fair point.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Okay, there used to be a thing, this is a
little before my time. There was a bus that would
drive you around to the bars on Washington Avenue.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
You're aware of this.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Almost got hit by it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
A friend of mine tells me a story about Wesley
that all of them were on right. Wesley came home
from war. It was right after he finished up in
the military, and he was on the bus with a
whole bunch of guys and Wesley got a little teared up,
and everybody was like, Wesley, what's wrong? And he says,
is the first time I've you know, been in a

(11:56):
vehicle like this where I didn't have to have a
weapon on my lap in about five years.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
And didn't have to worry too much about it blow
it up while it rolled down the street.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, see, that's a tricky thing because it's like that,
you know, where would you rather go Iraq or the
east side of Houston on an average weekend? Tricky, but
still his you know, to his point that was not
the worst neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
So sure.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Anyway, Wesley's the real thing, and we're excited to see
him enter the Senate race. Now there's two people that
could take votes away from John Cornyn, one of the
worst people in politics.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Can't they just take votes away from each other and
leave corn and standing there with the biggest handful.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
I don't know, it doesn't seem that way, but then again,
I would assume a little bit right, like in e
vent diagram, But I'm not a political strategist. I tell
Penis jokes for a living, and last night we told
some good ones and we raised some money to help
buy a wheelchair for some of Wesley's friends that probably
blow up on a land mine. So maybe that's right
part of the part of the reason why he's running

(12:52):
for senator.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
For the record, full.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Sad Monday, Mooney's there, How was.

Speaker 4 (12:58):
Your weekend not nearly long enough? Walton and Johnson Radio
Network
