So a lot of people in Conway know Chad, pretty funny cat.
And then to my right here, Adam Franks, the owner, or one of the co-owners of Legion Scaffold.
Yeah, we're in the Legion Scaffold broadcast studio right now, courtesy of Adam and Terry and all the team over here at Legion.
So we appreciate that a great deal.
So we're very excited to be here, man.
It's an exciting day isn't it?
Yes sir. We have been working hard behind the scenes you can see by the set. We'll
change some camera angles here. Show them some camera angles over there Tommy. Yeah
we got a missing chair there. Little camera angles. So we got all kinds of
good stuff going on here. We will have a call-in number probably starting tomorrow
or the next day. Yeah, sometime this week we'll have that lined up. And then we'll be able to
respond to all of your texts, your chats, different messages on social media. So go ahead and put them
up there and let us know how it sounds, what you're hearing, things like that. And let me just lay out a little bit of kind of what you can expect.
First of all, I know everybody is waiting to hear what went down over at the station that sold its soul, right?
And that's what everybody wants to know.
Everybody wants to know that, man.
Everybody wants to know the answer.
You're not getting it today, but you are getting it.
We're going to do it.
Yeah, we're going to do it probably the end of the week.
I want to make sure that, you know, we've got everybody at the table.
I only want to tell the story once,
but I promise you that I'm going to lay the facts out for you,
and you may be surprised to hear what some of the facts are.
I was damn sure surprised, but either way, it turned out pretty good.
Here we are right now.
And big thanks to Legion Scaffold.
Big thanks to Game Time Wraps
for this amazing spaceship that we're sitting in.
Yeah, they did a bang-up job.
Yeah, this thing's awesome.
It really is, man.
And, you know, we'll show you more of it as we go,
but I'm sure you've seen the pictures online.
Big thanks to, actually, Fitz Auto.
They have been amazing.
They were the ones that stepped up first and said, hey, we'll back this.
We'll support this.
Let's go ahead and, you know, fund your equipment.
And they dropped several K, five of them to be specific, on that equipment that we've got here to make
it sound as good as it could. So everybody has really stepped up. Spencer Consulting LLC,
they're the construction company that put this amazing Starship console together for us. And
then James Chaney came in, got it all lit up for us. So, you know, it's pretty amazing. It's been really a total team effort because I'm way too lazy to have done all of that.
I can promise you.
These guys really stepped up, came together, and made it happen.
Wouldn't you agree?
Major, major group effort.
Yeah, no, it really has been a total team effort.
And so now we're going to get back to the things that you know, that you love, that
you want. I know you've been missing it in your morning. I hear it every single day. I get messages,
people saying, man, it's a desert out there. It's tough out there. It's all hokey, cheesy crap,
you know. And by the way, just so you know, we're not beholden to the FCC in the way that we once were.
And so you're going to hear just a few things here and there.
You might hear something like, I don't know, see if I can push a button and make this work.
Bullshit? Bullshit? Bullshit?
Yeah, you might hear that. It could happen.
I'm sure you've heard that before. It's not going to melt anyone's ears to hear that.
No, we're going to have a damn good time.
Now, another thing, too, that's going to be coming up,
and I want a lot of you guys to be thinking about this,
is soon, you know, you might think, hey, I want to be a co-host.
I want to come up there.
I want to be a guest on the show.
I want to see what being a star is like and run my mouth on air.
Well, we're going to give you a
chance to do that. We're going to give you a chance to submit videos, 30 second video clips, telling
us why you should be on here. And we're going to start doing some of that, having some fun with
some viewers and listeners and, you know, bringing them in. But now we'll take a quick, super quick
little transition here.
And I'm going to do the news and talk about Legion scaffolding a little bit.
So let's make that happen right now.
Life hack.
Bullhorn fart amplifier.
Give me that bullhorn.
Hey!
Here you go.
Yeah, I don't want it back.
Patrick and the people.
All right. Let's do some news. I don't want it back. Patrick and the People. All right.
Let's do some news.
I got some news lined up.
Want to do some birthday stuff.
But first of all, I do want to wish a happy birthday to Ryan Sherritt.
You might know Ryan from Sheridan.
He's a manager over at AJ's Backhoe Service.
So happy birthday to Ryan.
And Daryl Hall.
Adam, how old do you think Daryl Hall of Hall and Oates is? 74. You're close 78. All right how old do you think
Steve Young of the what 49ers? Yeah how old is Steve 65. You're close, 63. 63, man.
Steve Young is 63.
Joan Cusack, that's John's sister, if you don't know.
What has she played in?
She played in School of Rock.
Most people know her from that.
Wasn't she the principal in School of Rock?
Is that right?
That's John's sister.
Neither.
Yeah, neither one of them would you want to get with,
but her a little more than John, I think. Emily Deschanel's sister. Me too. Yeah. Neither one of them would you want to get with, but her a little more than John, I think.
I don't know.
Emily Deschanel's 48.
All right.
Oh, okay.
Gunner is telling us over here that you guys need to make sure you're on mic when we're
talking here so they can hear you.
I got it.
No, he's our professional coach here to make sure that everybody is doing what they're supposed to be doing. We don't want to piss Gunnar off. No, we definitely
don't want to do that. You don't want to piss off the G-Man. He's making everything happen.
Let's get to some news here. A new poll shows the race for the White House is deadlocked.
Former President Trump, Vice President Harris. Now, normally, if I were to say something like that or somebody else,
you would catch this right here, because we don't do that around here. We're not a political show,
not a political candidate show, but for news purposes, we'll talk about it. Each received 48% support from likely voters in the latest NBC News poll that was released yesterday.
The survey released just three weeks before Election Day found some
uncertainties, they say, with 10% of voters saying
they might change their minds. Do you believe that? Do you
believe at this point that anyone's going to change their mind, Ann?
I'm not going to say nothing because you're going to hit the button.
I was waiting to.
I know better.
Now, you think anyone's going to change their mind?
I don't think anyone is going to change their mind at this point at all.
I think they're locked in.
I think they are where they are.
They've chosen their candidate, and, you know,
either they'll let him win or they won't, or her, I should say.
All right, let's talk about this then.
or they won't, or her, I should say.
All right, let's talk about this then.
I think that Jordan Peele is keeping details of his next horror film,
Lockdown, if you like his horror movies, and I do like his stuff.
He said that he's got a new one coming out.
Here's another thing of interest.
Hey, a new survey finds 42% of parents of school-age kids are more stressed than ever about their kids' academic success.
Well, are you shocked?
Have you seen what's going on at schools?
A lot of you are scared just to send them there.
I'd probably homeschool my kids at this point.
Matter of fact, I'd...
I know a lot of people doing that now.
Yeah, I think a lot of people probably are switching to that.
Are you hearing that?
Are you seeing that?
Yes.
Yeah, I am too.
I am too. I am too.
It says 82% of parents say they notice something concerning about their child on a monthly basis.
Top concerns include safety, emotional well-being, social development, and behavioral issues.
How about work ethic?
Can we get that one in there anywhere?
Amen.
Jesus Christ, man.
These folks don't want to work anymore. Is that wrong to say? No, it's the truth. It is the truth, isn't it? All right.
President Joe Biden has toured the St. Pete Beach region in Florida yesterday and announced that
600 million in aid is going to be sent to areas affected by Hurricanes Milton and Helene. He said during a press conference, quote,
in moments like this, we come together,
not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans.
We are one United States.
That should be true.
That absolutely should be true.
And you do usually in events like this,
I think you often see the best in people.
You see people come in to help.
You see people saving people that are being washed away.
You see people helping each other rebuild, helping each other get out.
I mean, that is the greatest thing is when the chips are down.
It is hard to beat us as a country, I think, honestly.
Now, Homeland Security Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said last week that FEMA will be able to meet immediate needs,
but they don't have enough money to last to the end of hurricane season on November 30th.
Now, would anyone care to speculate where is that money?
I was going to ask you where all that money is.
Do you know where it is? I'm looking for it. Do you know where it is?
Probably these UFOs flying around.
It might be in the Ukraine somewhere.
It could be in the Ukraine.
It could be any number of places that could be useful here.
I like to help the Ukrainians.
I wouldn't mind helping the people over in Florida who now are standing on a pile of rubble.
Domino's workers.
Hey, here's some of that good news.
Last week, a pair of Domino's employees in Illinois saved an 8-year-old boy from an early morning house fire.
After noticing the fire, Nacer Kanfar and Sarah Jones helped the dad rescue the kid.
They broke a window, freed him from the burning home, and fortunately, no injury at all.
That's a great story.
I'm just grateful for the person that ordered a pizza at 8 in the morning.
Who orders a pizza at 8 in the morning? That is a great question, isn't it?
They were hungry. You must say you got to be hung over to order a pizza at eight in the morning,
right? I mean, who else would do so? Anybody? Breakfast pizza. Is it a breakfast pizza? That's what it was? Okay. All right. All right. Let's see uh terrifier 3 won the weekend box office now i
don't know have you have you seen the terrifier movies any of them i've seen the first one you
saw the first one how about you chad you hadn't seen him are you a horror movie person a little
bit not on the crazy you know like and that is crazy i watched the first one and i started i
think i watched about half of the second one it's kind of like Saw the first one was great and then every one after that I never made it to the end of them I'd
try to watch Saw 2 or 3 or 72 whatever number it was and I'd be like man I just don't want to see
people ground up and smashed up and you know all that stuff I think their first budget probably was $85.
Yeah, it probably was.
I don't think they had any lighting at all.
No, you're right.
They're doing a good job.
I think the first Terrifier budget was probably less than that. That's what I mean.
Oh, that's what you mean.
They're making money.
Oh, no.
Yeah, you're right.
They're making money like Blair Witch made money.
Yes.
Blair Witch had a budget of exactly $38.
It goes to show you can give anybody a camera and they can made money. Yes. Yeah, Blair Witch had a budget of exactly $38. It goes to show you can give anybody a camera
and they can make money.
We'll see about that.
We'll see about that, won't we?
All right.
Hey, Deadpool and Wolverine have set yet another record.
I know you're shocked by that.
Three months after the release, still setting records.
It notched the highest-selling first week ever
for an R-rated film. The previous record holder, of course, John Wick Chapter 4. release still setting records it notched the highest selling first week ever for
an R rated film the previous record holder of course John wick chapter 4 but
the movies digital release was October 1st and apparently it's gonna be out on
you know all the you know streaming services and things like that did you
like Deadpool and Wolverine I like every Deadpool movie don't know if they can make a bad one.
They can't make a bad one.
No.
No, I mean, they're really that good.
What about you?
They're awesome.
Yeah, no, I think that Ryan Reynolds carved himself out quite an empire on that.
For sure.
You know, and I guess he's going to be a bigger part of the Marvel Universe
in the next type of the Marvel Secret Wars and all that. It seems they're paving the road to that. Yeah, yeah, for him to be part of the Marvel universe in the next type of the, in the Marvel secret wars and all that.
It seems they're paving the road to that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
For him to be part of it,
which I'm down anytime you can get more smart ass into Marvel movies,
it makes it a lot better.
Doesn't it?
All right.
Let's let's hit some sports here real quick that you need.
The weekend saw real nail biter between a couple of teams.
Maybe you saw Oregon and Ohio State.
Man, that was a straight –
Banger.
I mean, it was, man.
It was a straight punch-out.
It was just score after score after score.
And I'm a Buckeye fan.
I like the Buckeyes.
But Oregon did come in and do it, man.
They put it down.
Now it's 32-31.
I don't know what the rankings are today.
LSU, though, also took down No. 9 Ole Miss.
You knew Ole Miss wasn't going to stay up there that long.
They can't do it.
No. 1 Texas smacked around No. 18 Oklahoma 34-3.
Go, horns.
They put the whoop-ass on the Sooners, man.
Unranked Arizona beat No. 16 Utah 27-19.
So with all this, okay, here's the revised AP Top 25.
Number one, Texas.
Two, Oregon.
Three, Penn State.
Four, Ohio State.
And five, Georgia.
No Bama.
No Bama.
That's just weird to hear.
Oh, well, now it is weird to hear.
But, I mean, look, if you ever wanted to ask if Nick Saban was a good coach,
I think the answer is pretty clear now how good a coach he was
because all of a sudden they suck.
They just do something.
They suck.
I don't know.
Yeah, how does their – I mean, their stats compared to ours right now,
do we have more wins than them?
No, man.
The Razorbacks?
They had a big win, too, not too
long ago. Who'd they beat?
Didn't Vandy step up and
beat them? Isn't that who beat them? Vanderbilt?
Vanderbilt, who's never beat a number one
team in the history of the
program. They carried their goalpost
like 32 miles down to, I think
it's three miles down to the river, and
threw it in there. Who pays for the goalpost
when they do that, by the way?
Who pays for that?
The schools.
They just have to –
They fine them.
It's like a million or 500,000 the first, 200,000 the second
or something like that.
Okay.
Wow.
Oh, yeah.
That's an expensive one.
Well, speaking of Nick Saban,
he called on the NCAA to institute a flop rule for college football.
He didn't mince words.
He said, look, there's a lot of players flopping in games that don't get a signal from the coach to do it,
to slow the game down.
He said when the game got faster, everybody said if you get injured, stay down,
because we can't substitute fast enough.
Now people are taking advantage of it.
Well, you knew they were faking injuries to get timeouts.
How long has that been going on?
It's not exactly new, is it?
No.
No, I didn't think that was new either.
Is there anything else in sports we need?
Let's just take a look.
Oh, yes.
You do need to hear this.
And I appreciate this.
Do you know who Sidney Sweeney is, the actress?
Very attractive actress.
She's in a lot of movies now.
She's really up and coming.
But it appears that Sidney Sweeney has an admirer in the mascot of the Oregon Ducks.
He shot his shot.
He had a sign that read, Sidney Sweeney, call me back.
Now, look, I'll give her this.
She was pretty cool about it.
She said, sorry, changed my number.
So at least he got a little love back from it.
You know what I'm saying?
That's good to hear.
All right, we're going to do something here different
in just one second.
Hi, found you.
What?
I didn't know you were gay.
I'm not.
I found you on Grindr.
Tinder.
I'm on Tinder.
You're on Grindr.
That's why guys keep coming up to me in shops.
Like these?
Hey.
Reiner. That's why guys keep coming up to me in shops like these. Hey.
Alright, alright.
So, I guess
it goes without saying that
all of us, you know,
one of those things is bathroom
experiences are unique to the individual.
You know, when you
have a bathroom, we all have those crazy, wild bathroom experiences,
but when Adam came in yesterday, and where did you go?
Where was it you went to?
You went on a trip, didn't you?
Yeah, I was in Holdenwald, Tennessee.
What are you?
Holdenwald.
Holdenwald.
Not Holdenwald, but Holdenwald.
Holdenwald, Tennessee.
You never heard of it?
I guess not.
Me neither.
Oh, you hadn't.
Why did you go there?
Did you lose a bet?
No, I went on a family trip.
Oh, okay.
I was tricked into going.
They have a 20-mile flea market.
A 20-mile flea market?
20 miles.
20 miles of crap that other people are selling. That you
probably don't want to buy. Yeah. Or need. But her family gets together. Did you buy a nice set of
china or maybe an old toaster or radio? No, but I did buy that hat I showed you. Oh, that hat was
dope. Yes. That big Texas hat you had yesterday? Yes. That's awesome. All right, so but check this
out. So Adam tells me, he said, man, you're not going to believe what happened to me
when we stopped at the gas station, had to go to the bathroom.
Now, tee it up.
Tell them, lay it out, man.
I went into this little bathroom.
Uh-huh.
As soon as you walk in, you notice the urinal's missing.
The urinal's ripped out of the wall.
So. The urinal's ripped out of the wall.
The urinal's ripped out of the wall?
Yes.
So Holden Wall is a very nice place.
Yes, very, very.
They had one toilet with a stall.
So I go in there to go pee.
I'm standing there, and I hear the door.
Hold on.
When you go in the stall to pee, do you still stand?
Yes.
You don't sit?
Occasionally.
Okay.
Depends on how much I've been drinking. I mean, if I go in the stall, it just seems like if I shut the door, I should
sit, but... Just hover there?
If you've seen that toilet, you probably wouldn't. I probably
wouldn't. No, you're right. Now that you mention it.
But as I'm standing there peeing,
I hear the door open, and
somebody starts mumbling.
That's always disconcerting.
Yeah, that was... I was like, okay.
Then I hear the water faucet turn on
i finished my business and walk out and there's a guy standing there
one leg hiked up pissing in the sink he's peeing in the sink yes what concerned me about it the
look on his face there was no shame no nothing he was like man my bad i couldn't hold it
i just kept going i had to get out of there he just loped it over the sink and said, it's time to get, it's go time,
baby. I'm doing it right now. If you got to go, you got to go, I guess. I don't know.
Now, did you, were you clever? Did you go here? Let me just wash my hands real quick. Do you mind?
I want it out. I tried not to even make eye contact. See, it's sterile. Just now go ahead
and yeah, right there. Just make a little soap right here. That's hilarious, man.
Good times.
Is that the craziest thing that you've ever seen going into a bathroom
or have happened in a bathroom like that?
Top of my list.
Top of your list?
Yes.
I think one of the top of my list would be the time that I was in Michael's.
And I'd gone to Michael's.
I don't remember what for.
I don't typically go to the
craft store, but I was looking for something and, uh, you know, it was about halfway through the
store and all of a sudden, you know, it just hit me and I was like, Oh man, I gotta go. And you
know how that happens, man. Right. I mean, you've had that happen where you just, it's time to go.
Right. And there's nothing you can do. I literally, I'm, I'm almost at it. I'm not quite
at a run, but it's a mall walk. Right.
And so, and, and, you know, the kind of where you're already loosening your belt before you
even open the door, because you know, time is of the essence here. You don't have much time to get
it. Right. Yeah. So, so man, I, I bust in, I did, there's the stall. I'm like, Oh my God,
I'm going to make it barely make it boom, Get down, do my business, realize there's no, there's no tickets. There's no tickets here. They didn't have any. I literally
had to Google the number and call the manager of Michael's as I'm on the crapper sitting there.
And I said, um, Hey, yeah, I'm a customer of yours. Okay. I said, I'm in your bathroom.
Okay.
I said, can you bring some toilet paper, please?
You know how awkward of a call it is
to call the manager of Michael's
and ask him to bring you some TP?
Oh, man.
And you know it was funky, too,
when they came in, man.
Bet they were Johnny on the spot, though.
They were pretty quick.
I'm not going to lie.
They were pretty quick, yeah.
See, I would have let you sit there for about 10 minutes.
I'd have been cracking up.
Yeah.
Get the whole store sitting outside the door to cheer you on.
Yeah, no, that'd be great.
That'd be great.
No doubt about it.
Hey, at least you weren't sitting on the sink.
Right.
No, I didn't have to do it on the sink.
I didn't have to do that.
Hey, look, joining us right now is Ronnie James, rock star Ronnie James.
What's going on, Ronnie?
How are you guys doing this morning?
How are you doing, buddy?
It's a black thing.
I was late.
Yeah, no, he's on that CPT, that color people time.
We understand now.
That's good, man.
I get it.
My wife operates in that same realm as well.
If she's not late, something's wrong.
You know what I'm saying?
I used to, when we'd do comedy shows, I used to lie to her
about the start of the show time
just to get her to be on time.
Then she figured it out and it didn't matter anymore.
I've been to a couple of those.
You guys are good.
Well, we have a good time. What's going on in your world
today, Ronnie?
What's new? Coffee.
That's the order of the day, getting some coffee in.
Hey, we appreciate that.
Thank you, thank you. Alright, alright.
Hold on.
Life hack. Bullhorn
fart amplifier. Give me that bullhorn. Hey!
Here you go. Yeah, I don't want it back there.
Patrick and the People.
Alright, alright. Hey, I do want to mention, if you don't know, Patrick and the People. All right, all right.
Hey, I do want to mention, if you don't know,
that Fitz Auto is one of our big sponsors.
They help us out a lot.
I have purchased seven vehicles, I think, between me and the kids at Fitz Auto.
And what I love about them is they're just everyday people like you and I.
It doesn't matter if you've had some credit problems before.
They can help you out.
And they work with you on down payment.
They work with you on, you know, any kind of vehicle.
They have SUVs.
They have trucks.
Everything you can imagine.
They're late model.
They're low mileage vehicles.
The best vehicle I've ever bought is a Lexus SUV.
It's now my son's SUV.
And it's got maybe 225,000 miles on it.
I bought it with about 65 on it.
And, man, I ain't ever had a problem out of that vehicle.
So go to FitzAuto.com if you're looking.
Or go to 8421 State Road in Little Rock.
You can even start your app online right away and do it right there.
You don't even have to go in.
You can do your application online and, you know, handle it like that.
That's one of our fleet trucks we bought there.
Did you?
Yeah, that's right.
I forgot that you did.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, I've got a lot of friends or people that will message me and go, Hey, do you really, you really go to Fitz? Yeah,
no, I really do. I really do. And I ask everybody, please support them because they're helping us do
what we're doing right here. And so we appreciate that a great deal. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. All right. So I think the question now
is what the hell has been going on with me? What's going on with the show? What's happening?
It's going to take us a little time to lay everything out to you. Uh, but so the show
will be a lot of the same, but a little bit of different too. It's a little bit of a mix. So, you know,
your sounds, your textures. Now we don't have, um, the same segments that we had previously,
but we still do have some segments that might be kind of familiar. Like at seven 30, we'll have
something called wackadoos in the news. yeah and then at 845 we'll have
something called this shit ain't funny again we are FCC free here so we can do
that and I appreciate you being understanding of that but we're still
going to do the same kind of segments but we're going to get to talk about
things a lot longer at certain times,
talk about some great conspiracy theories, lay out some things,
have some great longer conversations.
And we've got, if you go over to Patrickandthepeople.com,
you can take a look at all of the different co-hosts that we have
who are going to come in.
We're going to have different co-hosts in here every day.
We're going to have different guests.
For example, Thursday, Spencer Clausen of Big Brother fame will be coming in.
He's going to hang out with us. He's a lot of fun. If you don't know Spencer, a real good dude and was a fun contestant, epic contestant on Big Brother, but he's from right here in Arkansas.
Now he's a big wig in the Conway government, but he will, uh, he'll be here
Thursday. Uh, we've got on Friday, we've got Vantage Ruins coming in, uh, with their first
live appearance. And hopefully if everything goes well, we're going to do an acoustic performance
and there is, we're still in negotiation right now to make sure if it can happen this friday but there's a very good
chance i could be tased live on friday it's gonna be awesome yeah yeah who wants to do it
huh who's doing it who's doing it who's doing it uh who's doing it the the answer to that question
will be the uh may uh the mayflower chief of police i believe or the mayflower police department
no no it is definitely law enforcement yeah make sure you're up on your mic like that ronnie so the Mayflower Chief of Police, I believe, or the Mayflower Police Department. It's got to be someone awful.
No, no, it is definitely law enforcement.
Yeah, make sure you're up on your mic like that, Ronnie, so we can hear you.
Yeah, no, it's law enforcement.
He said to me, listen, this isn't a stun gun.
This isn't the little pink Hello Kitty stun guns that they carry.
He said, these are the kind you shoot.
He said, so it's just the real deal.
He said, you might crap your pants.
I said, well,
let's do it at the end of the show then. That sounds like
a reasonable thing to do.
You don't want to do that mid-show and have you guys
sit around with a smush patty hovering
in my pants the rest of the morning. You know what I mean?
I don't know if I can handle that.
Bring some huggies with you.
Bring some huggies with you. But, you know, I always
wanted to do it at the station that sold its soul.
But, as always, the attorneys got in the way there and said, no, there's too much liability.
You might die.
But if I do, just think about the ratings.
I mean, that's going to be the best live stream ever.
That TikTok will be awesome.
I'll finally be the most viral I could ever be.
I'll just, boom, fall out
right here in the show.
Way to fame right there.
Oh, way to fame.
Yeah, that's the way. You know you got to take the road you can take, man.
I know.
The road less traveled, the one that involves pain.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
The voted.
Well, I think that I'm going to try to up the ante and do different stunts, different
ways that I can get messed up. You know, I used to be a stuntman. Are we going to change your up the ante and do different stunts at different ways that I can
get messed up. Are we going to change your name to Stuntman Patrick? No, no. But I've got a cover
up tattoo that my friend Mark Schusterbauer over at Level 33 Tattoo has been doing. And I was
talking to him yesterday and he said, man, we need to get that finished up. I said, maybe I should let you punish me and make me try to do it.
Talk on air while you're giving me a tattoo.
You finally do the show.
Finally getting the butterfly.
Yeah, no, that's I'm getting the butterfly covered up.
It was the rainbow butterfly and I wanted something bigger.
I wanted a platypus to represent how I identify now.
I do identify as a platypus. If you I identify now. I do identify as a platypus,
if you don't know. I probably hadn't told everybody that. That is a little something
new that happened to me in the time I was gone. If you don't see the duck bill, it is there. I do
have a beaver tail. Yeah, no, I do. I am a platypus, so don't ever question that.
Oh, man. So, Adam, let's talk a little bit about Legion and about what you do.
Because Legion scaffolding, by the way, if you are, let's say, well, not just construction, but any kind of company.
If you, let's say you had a large church that you had to change all the lights out, you might think, how does that happen?
Well, a lot of times it scaffolding right yes yeah or you might have a dam that you need scaffolding hung
on the side of or a bridge or a large building something like that i mean what what would you
not build a scaffold around i have not found anything yet that we go no we can't do that or
we won't do it yeah now what's the biggest scaffold you'd say you've ever done?
Inside boilers.
Right now I got guys on the way to Idaho, to American Falls.
We got a big one out there for the TVA, for the government.
Tennessee Valley Association.
That's their energy company, right?
So you're doing a big one out there?
Yeah.
We got crews everywhere.
Who all uses, let me ask
this because somebody might not know, who all uses
scaffolding? Where all does it come into play?
Pretty much any construction
company that doesn't want their employees
to get hurt, calls us.
Calls you, yeah.
Safety guys. Yes, we go in, get them up in the air so
they don't have to work off a ladder and fall and break their neck. And you know that not only can
it hurt somebody but the fact of the matter is if it does happen your safety rating as a
construction company will plummet and that's a huge factor. Oh I don't think you're out of business.
Yeah I mean it really will. It'll kill you. Yeah, now how long have you been doing scaffolding? Like your whole life?
24 years, 25. Since I was 20, so 24 years. 24 years. Wow, that's pretty amazing. Nobody does
anything almost for 24 years anymore. I do. My partner, Kerry, he's been doing it the same.
We hired in around the same time.
Yeah. You know, he went off to Alaska and he's worked on the oil rigs. I work mostly in the
powerhouses. Okay. Okay. So, so they do scaffold on oil rigs too? Yes. And what is the scaffolding
on an oil rig? Is that to build up to, as they, they build the drill or what? Well, no, it's out on the ocean if a valve
breaks or, you know, stuff breaks all the time. Oh, okay. So we got to get them up there to repair
it. Oh, wow. I would have never thought about scaffolding on a ship. I wouldn't either. That's
pretty wild. They're rocking. Now, Chad over here has piercings by Chad. Now tell them where you're
located. I'm at 1008 East Oak in Conway.
Now I want you to know I asked Chad the other day.
I did a little field research for you guys.
And if you guys out there want to get your hammer done, Chad's not down with that.
I'm just letting you know.
Chad said he doesn't pierce hammers, okay?
So now, ladies, you're good.
He goes all in there, doesn't he?
No, I asked him, I said,
do you ever pierce the scrope boat or do a Prince Albert?
I missed that day at school, man.
He said he didn't go to school on that day, yeah.
That would be weird, man, you know?
I mean, any of it's weird in that region, to be honest with you.
I was sick that day, man. All right, I mean, any of it's weird in that region, to be honest with you. I was sick that day, man.
All right, so you've got to tell us.
What's the oddest piercing you've ever administered?
Man, some people come in and ask for wild requests.
Sometimes you've got to be able to say no.
Well, what have you said no to?
Oh, man.
There's like one, a geech, like in between your...
Oh, the gooch.
The gooch!
He's talking about the tank, the fleshy fun bridge.
I can't do that, man.
No part of being in somebody's butt is...
Oh my God, no.
Who would want to...
Why would you want to do that?
I don't know, sir.
Is that a new trend or something?
I try not to even...
Is that why they bleach it so they can put an ornament on it clean that thing up a little bit
get you an only fan shine it up and they put a logo on it like this get it wrapped
that's a whammy so what So what's the most common thing?
People get their ears pierced, their nose pierced?
Noses right now are really, really popular.
Yeah, he just pierced my wife's nose the other day.
It's weird to say another man pierced my wife.
Oh, wow.
It was a pleasure.
Huh?
It was a pleasure.
It was a pleasure indeed.
I enjoyed watching her get pain, I'll tell you that.
Anytime I can see that, it's a win for me.
Yeah, now, do you have any piercings that aren't visible here?
Negative.
No, how about yourself, Ronnie?
I did have a nipple ring.
I do not.
You had a nipple ring?
When I was in high school.
Oh, when you were in high school.
It got ripped out on a tube on the Arkansas River.
Yeah, how did that happen?
I was tubing.
It got hung on the inner tube.
On the inner tube?
Yes.
It's a round piece of.
No, mine had the little.
No, I mean, but the tube's just a round thing.
But it's got ropes and all that.
Oh, he grabbed the rope and bink.
And my buddy, I'm yelling at him to stop.
Yeah, because your nipple's in the bottom of the boat now.
So he guns it.
Yeah. Yeah, oh So he guns it.
Yeah.
Oh, he guns it.
That's a good dude.
You remember that guy at the fair?
Did they still do that to you when you get on the Himalayan at the fair?
That's the one that goes around and they play all the music.
And they go, you don't want to go faster?
Oh, man, yeah.
You know the one I'm talking about?
I'm always in it with some fat guy.
And it's going around at light speed,
and he's just smashing into me, and I'm smelling nothing but BO and butt crack.
And he's like, you want to go faster?
I'm like, no, I just want off.
I want off the ride.
They don't stop, though.
No.
No, they never stop.
They think it's hilarious. So do you remember back in the 80s,
the rockers used to wear the nipple ring that attached to the ear?
No.
I've seen pictures.
I've seen pictures.
No, I don't know of any such thing.
You remember that.
The chains are starting to come back now.
They're doing the chains across the nose and stuff like that in the ear.
Really?
It's starting to come back now.
I was thinking about having a piercing like that once.
Why?
Part of it.
What happens if you turn your head too much, though?
I was thinking about throwing the guitar around my back and get caught up in your chain or something.
Right?
Yeah.
Cinderella.
A chain from where to where?
Nipple to ear.
Nipple to ear.
It just wrapped around, just like your belt loop.
Like your wallet?
What about your shirt?
Well, it was all a part of it.
We didn't wear shirts back then, you know, in the 80s.
Yeah.
No, no.
I mean, I'll be honest.
That was a different era, though.
No, it was.
Look, I love Van Halen.
I love Def Leppard.
I love all that.
But if you go back right now and you watch a Van Halen video,
they look like the fruitiest dude you've ever seen in your damn life.
They're wearing men's shirts, skin-tight pants.
But it was so sociably accepted.
It was.
Vince Neal was the hottest chick in the 80s.
With the wild hair.
Oh, yeah.
No, Vince Neal was hot.
You were like, that's a hot chick right there.
I would hit that.
I don't know if I'd say all that.
Huh?
I mean, I thought Vince was a chick for like two years.
I was trying to date her.
Oh, really?
You wrote?
You wrote Vince Neal?
You had him on the wall.
Huh?
You wrote Vince Neal?
Posters back there.
No, man.
I remember having that.
My mom, that was the worst, must have been the worst point in her life with me as her kid
when all of a sudden Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil comes out,
and I'm in there banging my head, shout at the devil, and I'm like, listen to this, Mom.
And she's like, oh, Jesus Christ, what are you, going back to church?
You're not listening to no more Rick Springfield, no deaf leopard no van halen no nothing no big hair music
now then my grandma brought me this book and i don't know where she got it was the greatest book
i mean it was some of the greatest comedy i've ever read in my life it was this book it was an
anti-rock and roll book called the god of rock and it would go through the
lyrics of songs and tell you what they really meant and i was like i didn't know what they
meant i was like this is awesome i didn't know i can't get no satisfaction was about a chick on
her period did you know that i didn't when i was 13 i like, that's the coolest thing I've ever heard. You're the best in the world. Yeah.
Yeah, there was...
Did you know what a pearl necklace?
You thought she went to Jared's for that?
She didn't go to Jared's for that?
No, she went to Jared's.
Well, she went to Jared, not Jared's.
Not Jared's, but Jared's.
That's right.
That's right.
Or get a little tush.
Every time you see a lady with a number on it.
I think it was Tyrone.
Tyrone.
Tyrone. Yeah. All right. little lady, I'm going to go. I think it was Tyrone. Tyrone. Tyrone.
Yeah.
All right.
Hold on.
Let's talk about this.
My wife sent me.
Hold on.
Gunner's trying to tell me something.
What are you trying to tell me?
One needs to be closer on the mic.
Oh.
Except for me?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, that's because I know what I'm doing here.
You're a professional.
Yeah, you're the only one who knows what you're doing up here, man.
I don't know how much more coaching I can go than put your lips up on it like you're trying to get friendly.
You know what I mean?
You got to make eye contact while you're doing it.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you want me to hold it while you do that?
Is that better?
We need a pause button in here, man.
We need a pause button.
We should use the pause.
My sons and I do that all the time.
What?
Pause button.
Yeah.
You just start all over again.
Start that conversation all over, man.
Yeah, we just start it all over, man. We just started all over.
All right.
So, listen, my wife sent me this link, and I was like, this is crazy.
Okay?
This is in Benton.
All right?
Now, by the way, I'm back in the SC.
I moved back to Benton.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, that's right.
I am back in Benton, baby.
You missed me.
I'm back.
I knew it was good when I went to the gas station and the girls asked for a picture.
I was like, yeah, I'm back home.
This is the best right here.
Yeah, I was just shy of getting some free gas or something, you know.
But anyway, she sent me, they have this
Benton, Arkansas Rants and Raves.
It's some kind of forum on Facebook.
And listen to this. This lady
said that she went to Tyndall Park.
Now, do you know what Tyndall Park is?
Does everybody know? Okay. Tyndall Park. Now, do you know what Tyndall Park is? Does everybody know? I don't.
Okay.
Tyndall Park in Benton is just a regular park.
It's got some swings.
It's got basketball courts.
It's got a skate park.
It's got a little performance amphitheater and all that.
But it's just an area where people go to, you know, hang out, have fun, play, whatever.
She said, went to Tyndall Park trying to enjoy the nice weather with my youngest
when a teenager dressed up as a furry dog slash wolf
asking kids if they want to take him for a walk.
Then said teenager puts a spray bottle between her legs,
lifts her leg acting like she's peeing on the slide.
What?
The lady said, I'm all for freedom of expression, but come on.
It's finally nice now, so I don't ruin it for us.
Now, the comments, as you can imagine, got hot real fast.
Somebody should have called the dog pound.
That was the number one comment right there.
Call animal control.
Look, what are you doing out here in your dog, coyote, wolf costume?
She identifies as a dog.
That's fine, but do you try to ask the other kids to take you for a walk?
You got to pee on the slide?
You got to pretend to pee on the slide?
Oh, my God.
Did she crap in a corner of the sandbox somewhere?
That's like full sin.
That's 100% committed right there.
That is.
I mean, actually, it is.
I wonder. Are you going to identify as something? you're going to identify something, go all the way.
I do appreciate that.
It's dangerous, though, because where I'm from in Redfield,
if they see a wolf, they're going to shoot it.
They're going to shoot it.
That's a nuisance.
Yes, man.
So if you shoot.
No, it's dangerous in Saline County because they shoot on first sight anyway.
They don't even care.
That's true.
Yeah, you know, you got a
furry come up to your kid. I'm like,
listen, kid, you're taking your life in your hands
in Benton. You bring your furry
ass up to someone's kid, they might
put you in a cage
in the back of the truck and take you somewhere.
So how old was this
person? Teenager.
Oh, he said, oh.
Old enough to know about. Probably at the older
age, though. Probably like 17. Can you imagine
though how difficult it must be
to be a teacher today
when you have a kid show up
in their furry outfit and you gotta call
them, you know, Princess Ruff Ruff
or whatever? Put a litter box
in the room for them?
I don't know about that much. Do you give them treats
instead of putting stickers on their stuff?
Yeah, they have little dog biscuits when they get something right,
when they spell a word right.
They get a little rowdy, give them a little CBD treat.
Yeah, yeah.
No more gold stars.
No more gold stars for you.
I think that, you know,
I just think that we should be able to treat them appropriately.
Like, if you're going to identify as a dog,
I should be able to use a rolled-up newspaper
to discourage you from certain behavior.
Get out, bitch.
You know exactly what you would do at home with your own dogs.
Yeah.
Whoop that ass.
That's what I do.
Put it in the kennel.
Tell it to behave.
Have you had any furries you had to pierce yet?
No, thank God.
No? No, well... Well, don't say thank God. You'd love to have all the furries come had to pierce yet? No, thank God. No?
No, well...
Well, don't say thank God.
You'd love to have all the furries come in there to get pierced, wouldn't you?
They pay, man.
They got money.
I mean, it's no different.
I've never had nobody dress up, though.
That would be kind of wild, man.
Would you pierce Spider-Man?
I would pierce.
It's just never happened.
You'd pierce Spider-Man.
It's just never happened yet.
Okay.
It's probably in the future.
Now it's going to happen. No, it's not now.
Now you're going to get them every...
They're all coming there now.
Everybody's coming there. It's going to be
a furry convention at
Piercings by Chad in Conway.
Fur Piercings by Chad.
First five furries, free piercings
by Chad. That's what we're going to do.
I think that could happen.
I think he's going to try to make that happen.
Yeah?
I think it can happen.
All right, hold on.
Let's do this real quick and wash our palates of our terrible selves.
Brought to you by that gunk in the back of your throat.
That gunk in the back of your throat.
Some today.
All right, all right.
Let's talk about one of our sponsors here that we've got.
I want to talk to you just for a second about Reed Law Firm.
Now, maybe you've been injured by someone.
You deserve justice.
You deserve the peace of mind that comes with knowing someone's fighting for you as hard as they can.
You deserve an attorney who will be your guide,
who's obsessed with helping you get your life back on track.
Now, look, Tim's not some kind of fictional character
that you don't see other than on commercials.
He's not showing up on a billboard with his dog.
He and his team are real.
They take pride in being accessible and communicative.
As a matter of fact, Tim said,
we regularly talk to our clients via text, email, phone call,
whatever the client prefers.
So if you've been injured, check out readfirm.com.
You can give them a call, 501-777-7333.
Again, readfirm.com.
Tim's good people over there.
He is good people over there.
Alright.
Let's talk a little entertainment.
Let's talk about
the world of Diddy.
No Diddy.
No Diddy.
No Diddy.
No Diddy.
No Diddy.
No Baby Wolf. Wait a minute. What? Get it out there. Let's talk about Diddy. No Diddy. No Diddy. No Diddy. No Diddy. No Baby Wolf.
Wait a minute.
What?
Get it out there.
Let's talk about Diddy, guys.
Well, we are going to talk about Diddy.
I absolutely want to talk about Diddy.
You seem very invested.
Did you do a freak out party?
No, I never went to one.
You don't know Diddy?
No, I don't know Diddy like that.
You don't know?
I don't know.
Did he or didn't he?
That's the question.
He did.
He did.
He did.
I see that a lot of the celebrities are already paying out to make sure that nothing hits the news.
Man, this is awful.
A lot of them look suspect too, man.
They said there were a lot of celebrity names that were bigger than Diddy.
That they were bigger celebrities.
They were names that everybody knew.
Who do you think it might be?
Who do you think could have been in there that you think of that's that big?
I heard this morning Nick Gannon come out and said he used to go to the parties.
But he went to just the parties.
The pre-parties.
Yes, not the freak-offs.
Not the parties in the back?
Yeah. Which I would say the same thing. yeah not the parties in the back yeah no i would say he's been having plenty of parties i mean how many kids does that dude got like 38 now
i mean he's got a lot of kids but who do you think it's it's politicians do you think yeah
you think so i said there's pastors politicians like by the the way, where is the Epstein list?
Has anybody seen that one yet?
Right next to the Diddy list.
Oh, right next to the Diddy list.
Yeah, no, that's where that is.
Do you think Diddy's going to come up like Epstein?
That's the question.
Well, no, I don't think.
I think they'd love for him to.
They'd love for him to.
Now, if it starts to get too much, maybe.
But, look, these celebrities are already paying out.
I think Diddy's bag is he liked to watch and he liked to make his own matches.
He liked to go, I want to see this celebrity do this celebrity in front of me with this one.
And I think he kind of went to a little buffet and picked it.
Well, I mean, it could be sick,
but I don't know what Kate Upton and Oprah look like together, bro.
Did he probably does.
Did he probably does.
Yeah, did he seen that?
He's seen Oprah naked.
I'm not sure that that's something anybody really wanted today.
No. PTSD. He's seen Oprah naked. I'm not sure that that's something anybody really wanted today.
No.
PTSD.
You know who has the worst timing ever?
It's R. Kelly.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, trying to get his sentence cut in the middle of the Diddy thing was the worst. It's like, oh, man.
No, you knew it wasn't going to happen for you now.
No.
No, Kels is never getting out now.
Thanks, Diddy, for that.
They denied him, like, what, $50 million to get out? $50 million bail? Yeah. No. No, Kells is never getting out now. Thanks, Diddy, for that. They denied him, like, what, $50 million
to get out? $50 million bail?
Yeah. Yeah. No, there's
no getting out right now.
He bought a thousand
bottles of baby oil
and said he bought it at Costco.
When Costco comes out and goes,
no, he didn't get it here.
That's bad. That's bad.
Yeah, that's real bad. Now, in fairness,
let me say this in fairness.
Ronnie, I think you can back me up, okay?
Black folks use a lot more lotion and oil on their skin than we do.
Yes, we do.
But not 1,000 bottles.
No? You don't think that's it?
He just maybe bought the economy size just to keep his skin good?
I don't think he bought the economy size.
Yeah, you just think he bought a family pack to keep his skin good.
Yeah, I actually do.
And I think they sold it to him.
It was probably on sale.
It was on sale.
Yeah, because you're not going to use baby oil for that.
You're going to use Swiss Navy.
You know what I mean?
Because it's much better.
I mean, I don't know what that is.
I'm just saying.
Did you all hear about Brantley Gilbert?
Brantley Gilbert, you know, he's a country star. Yeah, he's a country star. A lot of people about Brantley Gilbert? Brantley Gilbert, you know, he's a country star.
A lot of people know Brantley Gilbert.
He's pretty popular.
Looks like he's a real jerk to his fans, I guess.
Uh-oh.
Yeah, because he left in the middle of a concert.
Apparently his wife was giving birth, and he thought that was more important.
Wait, hold on now.
How dare him?
Yeah.
What a piece of crap to leave in the middle of a performance. Like, you knew it was going to happen anyway, bro. What are you doing? Yeah. Should have scheduled that. And it's the song, man. Right, hold on now. How dare him? Yeah. What a piece of crap to leave in the middle of a performance. Like you knew it was going to happen anyway, bro. What are you doing? Yeah.
We paid for tickets, bro. We're not coming back. He probably lost about half his fans on that one,
didn't he? What do you think about David Grohl? David Grohl? What'd he do? You do not know what he did? Dave Grohl?
Yeah.
Huh?
Oh, what'd he do?
Well, tell me what he did.
Suspense.
I know, right?
He had another baby.
Not by his wife.
Oh, okay.
He got a love child.
He got a love child.
A love child.
Oh, really?
Uh-oh.
And this is shocking because everybody loved Dave Grohl?
He's a rock star, man.
He's a rock star.
I expect he's got kids all over the planet.
Yeah.
I think you've got kids all over the planet, Ronnie.
I know I don't.
He said, I know I don't because I am not paying for them.
That's what every guilty person, I swear.
Yeah, no, I definitely don't, you know.
I am not the father.
Yeah, no, I was not shocked by that at all.
I'll tell you what was shocking to see was Perry Farrell punching Dave Navarro.
Really?
Yeah, on stage.
I didn't know he had that in him.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
Oh, Perry Farrell?
No, he's kind of a wuss, man.
He had one good song.
Honestly, he had one good song, Been Caught Stealing.
That's the only song I like about him.
Oh, I didn't know who you were talking about, but I did see that.
You saw that?
I don't know what Dave Navarro did.
It's just that smug look.
Maybe he gets on his face.
I don't know.
Everybody wants to fight him now.
Dave Navarro?
Yeah.
Was it Ink Master that did it?
What did it?
Probably.
Because I know, look, I love Ink Master, but he was a much better host than Joel Madden.
Joel Madden, look, I just want him to leave.
You're barely a rock star as it is.
What are you even doing here, man?
You ain't got anybody else that has tattoos that can host this
because he's about as vanilla as it gets.
When they talk about white people, they talk about that dude.
That's him.
Yeah, he's that white guy.
Yeah, for real yeah
he's a weird-looking cat though but you know what he was with Carmen I like I was just fixing to say
he was with Carmen I like to credit right there then no that's mad credit right there now I know
some of you young folks don't know who that is but go back and look at Carmen Electra circa the 90s.
Lots of boys had posters on their wall and fantasies in their bed
about Carmen Electra, that's for sure.
And that dude was pulling that off.
He also, I think, was a bassist for Red Hot Chili Peppers
for like all of one album or something.
I didn't even know that.
I didn't know that.
Yeah, yeah, he was a bassist.
I should have knew that, but I didn't know that. Yeah, yeah. He was a bassist. I should have knew that,
but I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know
where Flea was
or what was going on
or if he was a second one
or how that works out.
I think he's a,
maybe he's a guitarist.
Hell, I don't know
what he plays,
to be honest with you.
I just know him from,
you know, Ink Master.
That's all I know him from.
I did a tour last year
with a guy from a band
called The Lions Within.
Okay. And we were The Lions Within. Okay.
And we were in South Dakota.
Okay.
We were on an outside show one night, and this guy looks exactly like him.
Yeah.
And there was a bunch of cops standing around,
and me and him was over by the merch table,
and the female cop kept going,
Is that who I think it is?
And I said, go with it.
Go.
Run with it.
Exactly.
That's what I try to tell my son.
That's what I try to tell my son.
I'm like, all these girls think he's Bad Bunny.
And I'm like, just say I am.
Yeah, no, you just nod your head.
Say hola, amiga.
You know what I mean?
Get away from the situation after that.
Yeah. You can't get caught
in the lie.
Well, you can after.
Just get back on the bus when you're leaving.
Yeah, you just bounce.
That's what you do. You just bounce, right?
Alright, let's
take a quick here change
and we're going to do wackadoos
in the news.
Yeah, that's a bit where we talk about a quick here change and we're going to do wackadoos in the news. That's
a bit where we talk about
the bad things or stupid things happening to people.
You know what I'm talking about. We'll be right back.
He's an
imbecile.
He's our imbecile now.
Patrick and the people.
Alright, let's see here.
Let's see if I can make this actually work.
This button, hold on one second.
Uh...
Bullshit?
Bullshit?
Bullshit?
Bullshit.
This is the segment.
Not like the other.
People do stupid shit. you say, oh brother.
Hey, it's not a copy or a clone of any previous bit.
But if you think so, hey, we don't give a shit.
Yeah.
Whackadoo, in the news.
Hey, that worked out.
That worked out pretty good. That worked out.
That worked out pretty good.
That worked out.
That's the worst intro I've ever heard in my life, by the way.
I mean, one, but that's absolutely... Resentable.
Yeah, no, that's just terrible.
I should have done a better job.
I'm ashamed of myself.
That's not going to get it done, but I'm not changing it.
Not ever going to change it.
It's too good.
All right, let's get to some stupid people and what's going on with them.
Check this out.
Someone got access to Ecovac's D-Bot X-Omni robotic vacuum across several U.S. cities earlier this year
and used them to chase pets.
Oh, that's awesome.
And yell racist slurs at their owners.
Really?
The vacuums are attacking the pets, going after the pets, scaring them.
They're yelling things at people.
They're hacking into vacuums just to annoy people.
That is taking trolling to a whole other level.
They are very bored.
You have one of those in your house?
Hell no, I don't have a robotic.
Are you kidding me?
I've had one.
I've had one, too.
That's what I'm...
No, I do have a Dyson, though.
Dysons are...
Man.
They're nice.
Look, when Laura told me how much it was, I was like, listen, I'll kill you.
But it really is that good.
I mean, it's...
I love my Dyson.
It sucks hard.
Yes.
Pause.
Pause. Pause. Okay pause okay so hold on the outlet spoke with multiple people about this
but the guy said something started coming from the robot speaker after he reset his password
and rebooted the robot it started again only this time it was clearly a voice. He thinks a teenager yelling slurs.
ABC said it happened from owners from El Paso, L.A., all over the place.
I guess they were using D-Bot to chase a dog around the house.
That's pretty funny.
All right.
Sunnyfield's Farm near Tottenhamshire, Britain,
now holds the Guinness record for the largest pumpkin mosaic.
Nobody gives a damn about that.
No, I'm not even talking about that.
What the hell is a pumpkin mosaic?
I don't know.
I don't care.
Who cares?
Nobody cares about that.
Let's move on.
Sean Greasley, though, of Las Vegas, Nevada,
spent 23 hours going up and down the stairs in his home to break a Guinness World Record for the fastest time to ascend and descend the height of Mount Everest on stairs.
That means he had to climb and descend 29,031 feet and five and a half inches on the stairs in his home to match the height of the world's tallest mountain.
Wow.
He live-streamed it.
That means people watched him for 22, almost 23 hours
going up and down his stairs like he was on Mount Everest.
That's like going hiking but being scared to go outside.
Why didn't you just climb Mount Everest, you pussy?
Why don't you just climb a mountain?
What the?
Why don't you go get a Sherpa and get up the mountain?
It's not the same.
It is safer.
What?
What's not the same?
It's safer.
It's warmer, too.
Just go climb the mountain.
Yeah, no, I'm saying just go climb.
If you're going to do it, do it.
All right, let's talk about this.
There's an article.
Oh, no, there's an artistic penile controversy.
Oh, I do love this penile controversies are high on my list of things i like uh it's popped up in the heart of naples
italy it's a 12-foot art installation created by designer gatano pese it's supposed to be a tribute
to some character uh but that's not what people see. And if you look at the picture,
it looks like a giant, massive penis.
I mean, it just looks like a big dong.
A Johnson.
And a happy Johnson at that.
I mean, hold on.
Yeah, look.
You look.
You look.
The guy that created that thing?
Gotcha. What guy that created that thing. That thing.
Gotcha.
What is that?
Kiss.
What else could that be?
There's nothing else in the world it could be if you could see it.
That's pretty wild, man. Yeah.
There's nothing else it could be.
And so apparently he's getting a lot of criticism for this, as you might imagine.
It says it's become a hot topic.
A lot of people are complaining, asking them to remove that.
Remove that.
Yeah, they want him to remove that.
They just said that.
All right.
Prior to the arrival of Hurricane Milton,
photos went viral of a home where a man had literally
strapped the house to the ground with heavy-duty restraints.
What?
Yeah.
Pedro Casares is that homeowner.
He said he spent $22,000 on these plastic straps,
same kind that you secure cargo on a freight ship.
How did it work?
Well, I don't know.
His daughter was pleased to report that the home security precautions paid off.
There was no damage to the home from the storm.
Now, some commenters are suggesting the family go into business
and do it for other people.
Strap it down, baby.
Strap it up.
Strap it up.
If it works, go with it.
I saw people putting some kind of, I don't know if they were paved stones
or some kind of big rocks up on their weights up on their roofs
to try to keep the roofs from blowing.
I've seen guys taking their cars and putting like this queen completely wrapping their cars in their
garage like it's going to keep the water out like what does that doesn't work i'm like what are you
doing man and they'd be like lamborghinis and you know i'm saying like what are you doing did you
see where they were warning all the people about the tes, if the salt water came in contact with the battery,
it just ignites.
Yeah, it's just gone.
You know, those batteries are somewhere around $60,000.
They're very expensive.
That's the main price of the car.
Well, yeah.
And here's the thing is, and maybe they last forever.
Who knows right now?
Ten years, I think.
That's what they say is ten years.
But if that thing goes down, let's say you bought it used, right?
And all of a sudden you
got to replace the battery it's no less than ten twenty thousand dollars to put a battery in where
do you take it there's no tesla places well tesla you have to have it taken to a tesla authorized
repair center i think memphis yeah i think the closest one is in tennessee so if you got a tesla
now there may be tesla owners out here who can tell better about that.
I'm not sure how that works, but I don't know of any Tesla repair places around here.
We drive Hemi's.
We drive Hemi's.
You're the problem.
You're the problem.
You know, I always say, he drives a Challenger.
I'm not the only one, man.
He's got one, too.
No, no.
His girl has one, too. Yeah.
Look, I always say this. The Dodge Challenger,
not everybody who has one
is an asshole, but it is the
official car of assholes, without a doubt.
Yeah. When I had the vet...
So he's calling you an asshole.
No, no. Not at all.
Bullshit!
Bullshit!
Bullshit!
No.
What were we talking about?
Yes.
I got lost for a second.
Bullshit.
Bull.
Bullshit.
I'm having too damn much fun today.
I am having too.
Let's stop for just a second here, and we're going to come back and do some more of that but i do need to mention one of our sponsors right here that i want to talk about spencer consulting now they helped
build it or they did build this desk and they did a great job for me but it is badass they do
a lot of renovations and uh you know home renovations and they work with me on a lot
of flip house projects.
If you don't know, I am a real estate agent.
So, by the way, shameless plug, if you're looking to buy a house or sell a house,
call me and let me help you with that.
Trust me, A, you won't have more fun.
And B, who else would you want negotiating a deal for you?
Right, angry Pat. Yeah, you want me to negotiate for you, trust me.
But I use these guys all the time for investors that buy and flip houses.
So Spencer Consulting LLC is their name.
Randy and Sean Spencer are the brothers that own it.
And if you guys are thinking about maybe investing and doing a flip home,
a lot of people are doing that now.
And I'll tell you why that they do is because you
can buy a house that needs to be renovated for significantly less. And then you make it exactly
what you want instead of just looking around for what you want and going, well, it's got this,
but it doesn't have that. It's got this, but it doesn't have that. When you renovate it,
you pick everything. You pick your colors, you pick all that stuff. So a lot of people are kind of catching on to that.
Oh, I can buy a house for much less expensive if it needs renovation.
Do the renovation.
Package it all into one loan, and boom.
You know, you're out there with a house.
It's exactly the way you wanted it to look.
But check out Spencer Consulting.
They're amazing at what they do.
And one more thing, if you do buy a house and you're going to move,
you're going to need a reliable, trustworthy moving company.

All right.
Let's get back to some crazy stories in Cobb County, Georgia.
Voters are checking out the actions of their sheriff with raised eyebrows.
Why?
Well, body cam footage appears to show
Sheriff Craig Owens calling for backup
from three deputies
because his Burger King order was wrong.
He needed to find out the name of the owner
so he could file a formal complaint.
So when deputies went to the door to go inside,
it was locked and had some,
some have called it a form of intimidation
a waste of resources now is it is that a waste of resources he got onions on his burger he didn't
want it he said it clearly why should he get onions on his burger when is your order everybody
burger king though they say have it your way it's's the wrong way sometimes, I guess.
But they'll also tell you if you say, yeah, I want to make a call you a bitch
if you ask for no onions at Burger King.
They don't care.
They do not care there, man.
The only place that has more attitude than that is Popeye's.
Rowley's.
Rowley's is gangster, man.
Rowley's is, but Popeye's, I'm telling you, man, they don't.
Look, I went to the Popeye's.
I lived in North Little Rock.
We bought a house over there for a couple years, and I had to get out.
I had to get out, man.
I had to get out.
Wait until you try the one on Broadway.
Because the service is so bad.
I went to Popeye's at, it was like 9.30.
They closed at 10.
And I said, man, let me get an order of chicken tenders and da-da-da.
And they were like, we're out of tenders right now.
I'm like, right.
I said, that's cool.
I can wait.
And he goes, no, we're not dropping anymore.
Do you want the legs and thighs or do you want nothing?
And I was like, isn't chicken in the name on the sign?
Popeye's chicken?
And you don't have chicken tendies?
Tendies.
Did you get the tenders? No, hell no, I didn't get chicken tendies? Tendies. Did you get the tenders?
No, hell no, I didn't get the tenders.
I drove off.
I drove off.
I was like, no, I don't want chicken on the bone.
I don't put bones in my mouth.
Pause.
Oh, that's what they say.
Huh?
We need that button.
Yeah.
Yeah, I can't believe the sheriff
would bring in officers
because his BK order's wrong.
I've never had cops come for me, man.
Like, when I get my order wrong.
Oh, no, they never showed up to help you with that?
No, I've never had no cops show up and help me, man.
Did you ever call them?
But no, but I've seen one.
I've seen people call cops because a restaurant didn't do what they wanted.
Do they really think that's going to make a big difference?
I mean, the cops usually just
escort them off the premises.
Yeah, normally it's just he has time to go.
And then all the workers are laughing at you.
Or if you're in the wrong restaurant or the right restaurant,
they'll just come over to the counter and whip that ass.
You've got to be careful today, man.
These mugs, you cross them the wrong way,
they might come across that counter and whoop that ass
for you. Yeah, hands you a quick ass
whooping. Alright, let's
get back to some other crazy stories.
Check this out.
Scientists in India
made an amazing discovery when they
found the fossil of a giant snake.
They've named it
Vasuki. Vasuki amazing discovery when they found the fossil of a giant snake they've named it
busuki busuki indicus that sounds like some weed that sounds like something you
would smoke the suki into the end of the suki indicus yeah definitely the snake
was 50 feet long holy the snake was 50 feet long.
Holy shit.
The snake was 50 feet long.
Now, they said that's about as tall as a four-story building.
They said the snake named after Vasuki, a serpent from the Hindu mythology.
The entire fossil was found 50 feet long.
Can you imagine a 50-foot snake?
What do you even do with that thing?
It's coming at you, man. What do you do? You die. You scream imagine a 50-foot snake? What do you even do if that thing's coming at you, man?
What do you do?
You die.
You scream like a girl and run.
You die.
There's nothing you can do at that point.
No, I mean, it's like a grizzly bear coming at you.
I mean, you think, oh, I might have a chance with a grizzly bear.
No, you don't.
No, you don't.
You have zero chance with a grizzly bear.
Well, they say fall on the ground if brown, and then I can't remember the other thing if it's a black bear. Stop, you don't. No, you don't. You have zero chance of a grizzly bear. They say fall on the ground if brown and then, I can't remember the other thing
if it's a black bear. Stop, drop, and roll?
Yeah, I'm not doing that. I'm going to run.
I'm going to run. Stop, drop, and roll.
I don't care what color the bear is. I'm running.
I'm not racist about
bears. It doesn't matter to me.
White bear, black bear,
any bear, you know, I'm running.
That's what I'm saying. Even a big dog I'm running.
He's a certain size big dog.
Listen, I'll tell you this, man.
This is a true story, man.
I had a friend of mine, a couple, and they had a dog,
and it was half bull mastiff, half Great Dane.
Oh, shit.
Okay?
It was massive.
They did that intentionally.
Yeah.
And so it's a year old, so it's still a puppy, right?
This thing weighs as much as I do. I'm not kidding. I mean, it was the biggest dog I've
ever seen in my life. And, uh, so we, we go out back, uh, to their, their screened in porch
and he's, I know he's just trying to play, but his way of playing is to bite down and pull me.
And so he puts his whole my whole
hand in his mouth and he keeps doing that well then he jumps up and puts his paws on both my
shoulders now listen I've never felt like a woman in my life until that moment when I felt like I
can't move and I'm about to be violated right and so I had kind of a bad feeling about this dog as it was.
But we went back in and started playing Cards Against Humanity, whatever it was.
But I wanted to come out, you know, about 30 minutes later and smoke a cigarette.
And I went out by myself.
The dog was out there and he was very excited to see me.
He immediately comes up and he's sitting there and I'm like, I tell him, don't listen.
Because I will talk to dogs like people.
I'm like, listen, bro, don't do it.
It's not going to go well.
No ditty.
I'm telling you, do not mess with me.
I'm not in a mood for it.
I'm trying to get my cigarette and get going.
And so he starts gnawing on my hand.
I'm pushing him off.
All of a sudden, I see him.
Those rear legs kind of spring down, and I see he's about to jump up.
And I swear to God, bro, when he came up, I caught him with a right cross.
Bam!
Bam!
I mean, just his heart is like a man.
Bam!
That dog sat down and just looked at me.
Did it laugh?
It didn't laugh, but it wasn't mad.
I think it respected that I'd socked him that hard.
But it was funny because
i went inside and i said listen i i just need to be honest with you i just punched your dog in the
face like a man and they started laughing i said no i'm dead serious yeah i don't know if he'll
need to go to the dentistry thing if he does it's on me i i did that to him you know i did it on
purpose oh man you know he didn't mess with me anymore i will say that he respected you you know he definitely did all right check this story out right here uh bath and body works they
they're pulling this holiday candle this happens every year somebody's gonna do something dumb
they some how it makes it through marketing nobody saw this is beyond me all right so what was it
well it's this holiday candle. Now they, it looks like
a snowflake, right? You got three almost leaf shape kind of round with a point at the top,
but for some reason it's got two holes in each one. So it looked like a KKK hood.
It looks like three KKK hoods. It's the snowed-in candle. It's all white with the two black eyes in it, which aren't eyes,
but that's what it looks like on a red background.
Yeah, and everybody started calling it out.
Of course, Bath and Body Works said,
look, we didn't mean to offend anyone.
We're sorry.
But I'm like, how did anybody not look at this and go,
that kind of looks like, I mean...
Yeah, that's a no-go.
Here, you can see it for yourself right there.
You see it?
Yeah, that's very racist.
Do you see that?
Yeah.
There's no way anybody could not look at that and go...
It looks like three of them.
Yeah, it looks like they're having a...
It's like three or four.
Yeah, it's like a meeting, a Klan meeting. It's like a little white alien. It having a meeting, a clan meeting.
It's like a little white alien.
It's a candle clan meeting.
Let me see that.
Hey, I'll ask.
Hey, he'll know.
Chad, you asswipe.
It's a candle thing.
Hold on, Chad.
It's the candle.
That don't look too good.
What do you think?
No, it doesn't look good at all, man.
It looks like a meeting, like, for real.
No, it's terrible. All right, so here. It looks like a meeting, like, for real. No, it's terrible.
All right, so here's another one for you that you're going to love.
Check this out.
Doctors are warning people about a dangerous trend.
Look, you can go online and buy a lot of different things now, right,
that you didn't used to get by.
You can get all kinds of holistic medicines and whatnot.
You know, they have fake weeds. They have fake this, fake
that, right?
Sometimes people do dumb things because
well, look, let's be honest. The
shots that people, everybody's losing weight.
You've seen everybody do the shot.
They're very expensive.
Even with insurance, it's expensive, right?
Sometimes people look
for cheaper alternatives.
This is not the way to do it.
Correct.
Doctors are now warning you, yes you, about a dangerous trend where tapeworm egg pills are being sold on the dark web as a quick way to lose weight.
Whoa, I'm good.
We used to joke about this.
We used to joke about it. Yeah, yeah.
Look, tapeworms grow up to 30 feet long in your gut.
They cause weight loss because they eat the food before it can be digested.
They're eating the food in your stomach.
And a U.S. oncologist shared a story about a woman who bought these pills,
started experiencing some health problems, as you might imagine.
The woman was struggling to lose weight
through diet and exercise
when she came across an ad for tapeworm pills.
I call that survival of the fittest.
That is kind of survival of the fittest, isn't it?
Let them do it themselves.
Yeah, you should have just said,
no, I don't see anything. Go back home. Yeah, you should have just said, no, I don't see anything.
Go back home.
Yeah, you go home.
I said she was struggling to lose weight through diet and exercise.
She came across an ad and decided to take two capsules, saw some weight loss,
but began suffering stomach cramps and bloating.
Then after passing out a few times, she finally went to the hospital
but didn't even tell them what she took. That's always the craziest thing is when finally went to the hospital, but didn't even tell them what she took.
That's always the craziest thing is when people
go to the hospital, they know
what's wrong, but they're like, yes.
Guess what it is.
What's my problem?
If you guess
light bulb in the ass, you're right.
Yes, I do have one stuck up there.
They do. There were things stuck up their
butt and they're like, what's wrong?
Something's wrong with my stomach.
You know what's wrong.
You shoved a Roman candle up your ass and lit it.
Remember when they were sticking the gerbils up their asses and shit?
Like 15 years ago or so?
Oh, you're talking about the old story about what was that actor?
Richard Gear.
Yeah, they said that he had done that.
Really? Yeah, I don't know how that works. I don't either, man.
I think you put a paper towel roll up,
you put them on a screen. You know way too much about
this, man. What are you talking about?
I don't know the recipe.
It sounds like it, man.
No, I never understood
that either. Why do you want to put a rodent there?
Anything furry, really.
You can probably look it up on YouTube now.
What?
How to do that.
Oh, I'm sure there's a instructional video.
Yeah, you can find about any instructional video now.
Some that you don't want to see.
I go to YouTube to fix my car all the time.
Do what?
I go to YouTube to fix my car all the time. Do what? I go to YouTube to fix my car.
Oh, man, yeah, you'd be an expert on a lot of stuff, man.
Do they fix it? Yeah, yeah, I fix it.
Oh, you fix it, not YouTube.
Watch the video, then do it. Instruction video,
and I fix my car. Yeah.
I don't need a mechanic anymore. That's how I learned
to do woodworking and all that.
Yeah, I remember when you did. Then I cut my finger off.
You cut your finger off. So there you go,
YouTube. How about that for an endorsement?
How's that work for you?
Is that a good endorsement?
What?
I remember that when you almost cut your finger off.
No, well, I cut part of it off.
I shouldn't say the whole thing.
For those who don't know, I had a shop, a wood shop for a long time.
I custom built stuff.
And I was building this massive desk for a very good client now a good
friend of mine out of black walnut and red oak which if you don't know on a table saw black
walnut and red oak are two of the densest woods you can have and I didn't know because I had like
an it was like the oldest delta saw in history I mean it was from the 60s and it had, you know, they have these
spider gears and one
of them was just broken.
And so it would just
turn a little bit.
So it's going at like, instead
of straight up and down, north and south,
it's like between 2 and 3 percent
and it's moving, right?
So I'm planing
and basically edging all these boards.
I'm just pushing one after the other, like 50 boards.
Round, round, round.
And you shouldn't zone out.
No.
No, but you kind of, you know, 50 boards,
you kind of zone out at some point.
And I'm pushing, and it went in and it kicked back,
and I thought, oh, it must have just went in a little sideways.
So I pulled it back, and I just pushed it straight.
And when it yanked this time and it vibrated, I went, that was the board,
not my finger, right?
That was not my finger.
I looked down just in time to see.
Blood.
Oh, pieces of it going.
And then blood.
It was squirting?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, no, it was not good.
I would have passed out. Look, I was shocked because I wasn't in a lot of pain at that point.
You hit you later.
I thought I should be.
You hit you later, didn't you?
I wrapped a shock towel around it, ran in the house, ran past my wife.
And she knew immediately something was up.
She goes, what's wrong?
I said, and I said, cut the end of my finger off.
She just heard cut my fingers off.
So she's like, oh, now we're on disability.
We already, this is it.
I'm done with this clown. He just cut
his fingers off, right?
So I get back to the bathroom and I'm like, I know
I have to wash this thing out, right?
And I'm still shocked. I'm like, it's not hurting that bad.
Soon as that water hit, bro,
boom! Oh,
every bit of pain showed up.
Oh, no, it was all there for me then.
And so I said, Laura, you're going to have to take me to the hospital.
We've got to go to the hospital.
And I didn't want to go to Saline Memorial.
I did not want to because I've had not good experiences there, to be honest with you.
They may be very different now, but then they were terrible. And as a matter of fact, I'd rather go to a 24-hour veterinary clinic. Okay. So,
but I didn't, it was hurting too much to drive all the way to Little Rock. It's just, just go
over to Sleen. Just go over there. Go over there. Cause it was right across the freeway. Go in
there. And the lady at the desk, you desk, she said, well, what's wrong?
And I'm like, well, here's blood.
I cut my finger off, and she's like, oh, okay, go fill this out.
With your bloody hand.
You should have filled it out with blood.
Yeah, all right, I'll fill it out.
Sat there for like 30, 40 minutes, and finally, I'm like, hey, what's going on?
Can anybody help me here?
I'm feeling a little woozy.
I'm losing blood. I'm like hey what's going can anybody help me here I'm feeling a little woozy I'm losing blood
you know and so they bring me into the intake room and look I get it I know that there's a lot
of people out there that are up to no good okay but she starts questioning me right I'm just trying
to get to the doctor I'm just trying to get to the doctor. And she starts asking me all these questions about drugs.
And I'm like, what are you talking about?
I said, listen, if you think that I'm here to get some kind,
that I stuck my finger in a salt to get some prescriptions,
I don't need you to give me a single prescription.
Please don't give me one.
Just give me a shot to stop the pain.
And she goes, well, I have a question. I'm like, okay. She she goes when I ask you how much it hurts why didn't you say 10 you said an 8 I said well I hold out that if I
sever my leg it probably hurts worse so I just left a little wiggle room there in case I lost a
leg god so she gets me back finally I get back into this room, this makeshift room.
It's not even, I think it's like a broom closet they opened up to get me in.
And she comes in and she goes, okay, so here's what we're going to do.
It's going to get worse before it gets better.
I said, lady, just cut it off.
How's it going to get much worse?
She goes, I'm going to have to give you shots.
They did that to me, man.
And I said, okay, okay, that's fine.
I've done this. We can do this. We can I said, okay. Okay, that's fine. I've done this.
We can do this.
We can make this happen.
You know, that's fine.
Right.
And she said, and then we're going to get that done, numb it up, get you an x-ray, get
you back over here, clean it up, and get the doctor to come in.
I said, okay.
Sounds good.
She goes, okay, so I'm going to give you three shots.
Give you one on the top and one on each side.
But I'll do it real quick, you know.
Well, I just rolled up a washcloth,
put it in my mouth because, listen, back in the day when I was 16, my, you know, primary position
was kind of a horse doctor, also in Saline County, and when I had an ingrown toenail, he just gave me
a shot and yanked it out with a pair of pliers, you know. Yeah, not a good time. So I understood I need to bite down on something, you know.
So I bite down on it.
She hits the top, and it hurts real bad, real bad.
But when she does the side, she's trying to do it fast,
so she hits this side and comes right behind it.
I don't know if this trick had the best, unluckiest aim in the world.
The tips of the needles touched.
And he goes, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And let me tell you, everybody in that lobby probably left.
Because I screamed like a girl.
Ah!
And I know everybody heard it like, oh, I heard it up on the third floor.
They said, we're out of here.
Yeah.
So now here I am, you know, numbed up a little bit.
They send me over to get these x-rays, make sure the bones or whatever's there, you know.
Bring me back, and I'm waiting.
Me and my wife, I'm waiting.
I'm waiting 20 minutes, 30 minutes.
At 35 minutes, I walk out to the nurse's station.
There's one nurse there, my nurse, sitting there eating.
And she said, has nobody been there?
Who else is here but you?
It's you and me, lady.
What are you doing?
Well, I'll be back there in just a second.
So she comes back and she goes, well, I've got some bad news.
We're going to have to do it again.
I said, no.
I said, no, you're done with that.
No, we're done with that. You wash it the best you can. You're done. There's no more numbing
going on. You work around it. We're done with shots. So then finally the doctor comes in.
He looks down at it and he goes, man, there's nothing to sew here. He said, it's mutilated. It's done. There's nothing I can do for you.
And I was like, really?
And he said, yeah, but the good news is it'll probably grow back.
I said, listen here, bro.
I don't know where you doctor at, but I remember eighth grade science.
I'm not a lizard.
My limbs don't grow back.
What are you talking about, man?
And he was very patient with me he said
yeah if it's above the first knuckle most of the time it grows back and sure enough it did now i
still can't feel that one one end of my finger at all but it did grow back which shocked me you know
i was like wow that's that's crazy you are lizard. I might be a lizard man. Lizard man.
The lizard people.
They live.
I didn't know that happened.
They live.
Yes.
Yes.
All right.
Let's get out of here and do something else.
I'll come back and talk about one of our fine sponsors.
Okay.
So we like our coffee dark and bitter.
Doesn't mean we're not a ray of fucking sunshine.
Patrick and the People.
All right.
Let me tell you about Titan Roofing.
If you are in Arkansas and you need a roof, take a look at titanroofingcompany.com.
Now, look.
Why?
First of all, you don't want to have rain coming in your house.
That's a bad look, okay?
But they've got a 10-year transferable warranty.
That's a big deal.
Because if you sell your house in five years, that's pretty awesome.
And you can transfer that warranty.
That is a huge selling factor.
Okay.
They do residential and commercial roofs.
But let me key in on this.
They're your insurance negotiator and advocate.
Look, insurance adjusters, their job, they're paid to maximize benefits for the insurance
company.
Okay?
Josh, Jeremy, the guys over at Titan, they understand the metrics that the insurance
companies use.
Their roofing construction company has built its reputation on getting previously denied
claims approved.
Not only do they get your claim
approved, but they handle all communications with the insurance company to make it easier on you
from day one. They do it all. So check them out, titanroofingcompany.com. You'll be glad you did
if you're looking for a roof. They are good guys over there, good people.
And if you don't know, one of the things that I've kind of implemented on our show is at least for the first six months and maybe forever, I'm not sure yet,
but only local small business can advertise on the show.
I've put together some rates that are ridiculously low.
They're ridiculously low.
I promise you that.
You'll not find anything like that.
And so if you're interested in getting your business out there,
you're a small local business, no giant corporations,
no out-of-state corporations, none of them advertising here.
Only local small business.
And I'm doing that because those are the folks that have supported me
throughout the time
I've been here and doing this and it's my way to give back uh so if you want to take advantage of
that I promise you won't find a better deal out there than uh what we've got you know so uh Ronnie
tell us about what's the latest and greatest in your world man what's the latest and greatest in your world, man. What's the latest and greatest rock and roll news?
Oh, let me see.
I talked to Luke Shoemaker last night.
Did you?
Luke is with Vantage Ruins.
He'll be here Friday.
Love Luke.
Man, he is on the up.
They are blowing up right now.
What were you guys talking about?
The podcast here.
Yeah. What we're going to need
for his acoustic set.
They're going to do their first Vantage
Ruins. As a matter of fact,
I'll get their video up on the blog today
if we haven't already because I've got it.
You heard the jam.
You heard the single.
They're very good.
They're very good. They're damn
good. They're going to do their first live acoustic performance right here in this studio on Friday.
They're coming in from Nashville just to do our show, which is dope.
Now, if you don't know, Luke also made our intros.
Well, not the crappy one.
I did that one, okay?
I cannot put that on him, okay?
But he is the one that did the intros like,
well, here, I'll play this one.
Just watch it again if you didn't see it
at the beginning of the show.
This is Luke Shoemaker right here. We other people, we other people, we other people don't mess with this.
Let's go.
Yeah, man, I talked to Luke for a while last night.
We did a lot of catching up.
I hadn't seen him in a while.
You know, Luke used to be my singer in a band, too, for a while.
Yes, he was.
Luke's great people, man.
He got a shot.
He took advantage of it, and he got the hell out of the state.
Well, you know what?
In some cases, that is a good thing.
You know, when I was younger, I always wanted to get out of Arkansas.
I thought that was the thing to do was get the hell out of here.
Now I've realized it's not what I want. You know,
now if I could go live in Costa Rica or something like that. Yeah.
I mean, I'd do that. But, but as far as, as cost of living,
as far as people, as far as, you know, commute and all that, I love being here.
But if you want to succeed in the music industry or the standup comedy
industry, or if you want to become big like that,
you about have to get out of here to do it.
Yeah, you do.
Yeah.
I hate to say it, but you do.
No, no, you really do.
But he has broke through.
He is doing well.
He's up there rubbing elbows.
I mean, I think he was hanging out with Corey Taylor
and those guys at Slipknot the other day.
He hangs out with a lot of people.
Yeah, I mean, you know, when you're hanging out with Slipknot
and those type of guys writing songs with these guys,
things are going pretty good.
Yeah, you're getting awful close.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, you're real close to it right there.
Yeah, I told him probably two years ago, I said,
bro, you don't even know how close you are now.
You're about to blow up.
Now they are. Now they are, you don't even know how close you are now. You're about to blow up and eat.
Now they are.
Now they are.
Dark from day one is going to be here.
Matter of fact, they are.
They just got signed.
Yeah, I understood.
They just got signed too.
Natal and those guys over there, man, they're a phenomenal band.
We're also going to have in Stays in Vegas, they're coming in.
Chris.
Yeah. Chris Fuller. Chris Fuller, yeah. He's good people, man. I love Vegas. They're coming in. Chris. Yeah. Chris Fuller.
Chris Fuller, yeah.
He's good people, man.
I love Chris.
Great people, man.
Very good people.
Josh Stewart's going to be in.
My old singer.
Yeah, another one of you.
I think everybody sang for you at one point or another that's in Arkansas, hadn't they?
I think so.
How many bands have you been part of in your life?
Four.
Do you even know?
Four.
That's it, four?
Just four.
Yeah, I started two. I was a lead singer of two bands.
Iron Ton's one of them. Iron Ton, rehab superstar. Okay. Now, I jumped board with Dark from Day One
for, shit, 11 years, 12 years. Yeah. And then I was asked to go out with Scotty Austin from
Saving Abel. Right. And I toured with him for two years, and I'm back here now.
Now, touring with him, what was the coolest place y'all played?
Man, there was so many.
I think up in Matt Haddon, I really liked it up there.
Where?
Matt Haddon.
Matt Haddon.
Matt Haddon.
Where is that at?
Matt Haddon.
You don't know where Matt Haddon is?
Do I look like a map? You look like you know your way around. All right that at? Manhattan. You don't know where Manhattan is?
Do I look like a map?
You look like you know your way around. All right, that's fair.
That's fair.
Let's just go New York.
Yeah, okay.
You know, I hate New York, but...
It's cool.
Oh, Manhattan.
Manhattan.
Okay, Manhattan.
Yeah, I thought you said Mad-hattan.
That's what I thought he was saying.
Yeah.
Manhattan.
Okay, yes, I know where Manhattan is.
Now I feel like an idiot. Yeah, we... Hold on. I thought he was saying. Yeah. Manhattan. Okay, yes, I know where Manhattan is. Now I feel like an idiot.
Yeah, we, I loved it up there.
Actually, I got to see the Amityville Horror House.
Really?
Yeah.
So the perks were the best thing for touring for me,
because usually I don't think I would have saw a lot of this stuff.
Out and around.
Yeah.
Right.
Jump in the car and, hey, let's go down to Niagara Falls or some shit.
It don't happen that way. But when you're on tour you get to see a lot of things that
you normally wouldn't. Now let me ask this because you spent many years in the music
business. Is it all like the dirt from Motley Crue?
Is it really like that behind the scenes?
Used to be.
Used to be.
It still is in some ways.
Yeah.
It's a dirty world.
It really is.
It's a dirty world.
Yeah.
Because you meet some scum.
You meet scum.
You do.
People try to take advantage of you.
I'll be honest with you.
Yeah.
There's a lot of bullshit promoters and all that even some of the clubs we have played in you found
that after you
did your sound check
they really wasn't going to pay you
but usually with people like
Scotty and so
forth those are guaranteed
you're guaranteed
a lot of people don't know
Ronnie that if you're a smaller, let's say a regional band or a local band or whatever,
you might drive to, you know, play a set in Tulsa and they may be only paying $100 for the whole band.
Is that accurate?
That is very accurate.
Yeah.
And usually the guys that's going to play the show, they're excited as shit for $100.
And you know why?
Because we love to perform.
Yeah, because you love the art of it.
You love the music of it.
Yeah.
The $100, you can keep it most times.
Most bands, $100, you can just keep it.
What is the most starstruck you've been by someone you met when you were out
doing your thing? Tone Loke.
Really? Tone Loke?
Let's do it.
We sat at a table like this and had
a great time for four hours.
He's a pretty cool cat? He's a great cat.
A legend.
What did y'all talk about?
Everything.
Just everything for Four hours.
You had plenty of time.
Yeah, well, we did a lot of rolling.
Yeah, okay, okay.
He was a smoker, as you can imagine.
Yeah, he's a smoker.
He's a cog to smoke.
He was off the chain.
Tom Loke's great people.
Yeah, that's cool, man.
He's great people.
That is great.
Yeah, yeah.
So, you know, with Scotty's effort and what he actually took me out on the road to do,
I wouldn't have never met Tom Logan.
No?
I wouldn't have never met anybody like that.
I don't think, unless, you know, maybe even if I was still in dark from day one.
Yeah.
We kind of rolled out the carpet and did what.
But you were also a stuntman for many years.
Yes, yes.
I did that for about 10 years.
I did that for about 10 years.
Coming out of high school, I got in the movie business here in the state of Arkansas with a great guy, God rest his soul, Stephen P. Size.
Okay.
He was my stunt coordinator.
He was from the 80s and the 70s.
He was an old stuntman that actually worked on a lot,
Baa Baa Black Sheep, Beretta.
Okay. Some of you guys probably
don't know these shows. Yeah, right.
I think the last big thing he worked on
was Rambo, First Blood.
Okay. Everybody knows Rambo.
Yeah. He was the
stunt double for the sheriff,
which was
Brian Denning. Yeah, Brian Denning.
And he was his stunt double.
And, I mean, even watching the movie back then before I knew Steve
or when I knew Steve and I knew he did that movie,
I could see it was him doing the stunts because I worked alongside him.
Right.
I knew his personality.
I knew how he moved.
So, yeah, I mean, the guy took me so far in the movie business.
So what was the craziest stunt that you did in your time as a stuntman?
What do you think was the biggest stunt you pulled off?
Dragging behind a Model T Ford car in Alma, Arkansas.
Being drugged behind it?
Being drugged, yeah.
I used to do, there were certain stunts that I was pretty good at.
Being hit and runs,
drags,
falling off buildings 30 feet or more,
and ratchet pulls.
None of that
sounds fun.
Oh, it doesn't sound fun, but when you're a 17, 19-year-old
kid, man, that's...
They're out on a movie set,
14 hours a day. Well, I didn't get paid
much, you know, but I got paid.
But still, you got to hang around,
be part of it, see it later on the
screen, and that was
cool. And did some acting.
Yeah. Well, there was a couple
movies I wanted you to watch, but
yeah, man, it was a great
life back then. It was the 80s, man.
The 80s were pretty cool, for the most part The 80s were pretty cool for the most part.
You know, they were for the most part.
Weed wasn't as good.
No, Mexican weed wasn't as good.
No, you only had three kinds.
You had dirt weed, okay, the dirt weed,
which would just kind of give you a headache more than anything.
I used to come home with a hole in my shirt.
My mom would go, what is this?
Well, I wash your clothes.
Where am I finding all these little holes?
You're right.
Deceit.
Deceit.
Then you had regular weed.
And then you occasionally, somebody would say, well, I got skunk.
And they'd have some funky stuff.
But that was it.
That was it.
But they used to, in the 80s, they'd always talk about, or in the 90s,
oh, let me get some of that one hit. There was no one hit then. Now there's one hit. Yeah, now there is. was it and but they used to in the 80s they'd always talk about or in the 90s but oh you get
some of that one hit there was no one hit now there's one yeah now there is now you can hit
something and be like oh god i don't need it i don't know i'm good right there let me sit down
now yeah now life was good in in that aspect with the movie business uh that was uh the uh film
commissioner back then.
I forget his name and her name.
But I did a lot of work with Gary Jones Production.
I used to do a lot of work.
Bozo?
Bozo.
Yeah.
I used to do a lot of work with Sarah Tackett from the agency.
And she still runs that today, you know, the agency.
I did a lot of work with Craig O'Neill back then.
Yeah.
Crazy Craig back on KKYK.
I used to be dressed up as a ninja.
A ninja?
I was a ninja.
Okay.
And we used to do.
I'm glad you enunciated that very clearly.
Ninja.
Yeah.
So, yeah, we used to do a lot of stuff, man.
Catching the wave.
We used to go out to Wild River Country.
Remember that?
Yeah, of course.
Oh, yeah.
The Pepsi Challenge. The Pepsi Challenge.
The Pepsi Challenge.
Oh, man. Did you ever do it?
Yeah. Pepsi never wins.
I remember you talking about
earlier the guy going up and down the steps.
Me and Craig O'Neal used to do that
at War Memorial Stadium.
Really? Up and down the steps.
Yeah. But yeah, man.
It was great. It was great.
Now you know a lot more about Ronnie James.
And, Ronnie, we haven't even scratched the surface of everything about Ronnie.
He's got history on history on history.
He is a legitimate rock star.
We're glad that he's here.
Hey, let me mention this.
Lots of reasons you might need a cleaning company.
Maybe you have an Airbnb.
You've got a business.
You're moving out. Maybe you just don't like cleaning, but you don't just want anyone in your place. You want a local family business you can count on. Well, what do you do? Call
Cheyenne at Blissful Cleaning. She's the daughter of the local owners. They're licensed and bonded.
And the matter of fact, they cleaned our studio, our bathrooms, everything did a hell of a
job. Would you agree? Yes. You had an amazing job. They're licensed and bonded. They'll get it clean.
Not your kind of clean that other level, the really clean kind of clean, you know, the kind

So, Chad, let's talk a little bit about Conway.
Now, you went to school in Conway, is that right?
Yes.
Yeah.
High school.
Conway High.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Short-lived.
He said short-lived.
That's funny, man.
So you've been a Conway resident all your life.
Why do you love Conway?
What is it about Conway you love?
I was born and raised here, man.
That's why?
I was born in Conway Regional Hospital.
It's just home to me, man.
Okay.
The people.
It's just, I've been other places and always come back.
I don't know.
Something about Conway
okay okay okay uh now you are in Dogtown now is that where you're you're moved to
living in living in Bryant right now but we just closing a house in North Little Rock yes that's
what you were saying yeah congratulations yeah yeah that Yeah. Yeah. That's big time. We'll be moving, as of right now, at the end of the month.
Yeah.
MetroMoving.co.
I got two days.
Yeah.
MetroMoving.co.
Go ahead and give them a call because they can help you out.
Ronnie, were you born here?
Yes.
Where were you born?
North Little Rock.
In North Little Rock.
You were born in Dogtown.
I wasn't even born in the hospital.
What?
Yeah.
That does not shock me.
I was not.
Right off the...
Were you born in a convenience store?
Next to the convenience store.
Next to the convenience store, even.
You get off at the Curtisite exit.
Yes, I know that exit.
There's a gas station right there.
It used to be duplexes right next door.
Okay.
I was born right there in that duplex.
Is that right?
Yes.
I mean, my mom took me home.
I think I bought some weed in that duplex.
It might have been from him.
It might have been.
Two years old, Ronnie was just slinging weed.
But, yeah, I mean, born in Northwood Rock, man, and I've been at a lot of places.
But, you know, like he said, you always come back home.
Right.
You always come back home.
Actually, me and my significant other, we purchased some property in a house about five years ago in Bigelow, Arkansas.
Bigelow.
Bigelow.
Which is up by, you know, Ferndale, all that area.
It's up in that area.
Yes, and actually we were looking at places in Colorado.
I was going to move to Colorado.
I remember that.
And cultivate.
Yeah.
And the places out there was just so expensive,
and there was nothing to them.
Man, it is crazy when you start looking at what other places pay for
housing and things like
that. You think, yeah, I'm
going to move to Colorado. Because look, I love
Denver. I love Colorado
Springs. I love the state in general.
It's a cool state to go to.
But it ain't cheap. It ain't cheap.
So we decided to stay home
and buy some property here.
It was much cheaper. A whole lot of property for a way lower price.
Now, I've been to your home.
First of all, it's lovely.
And second of all, a very good value that you were able to get.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I tried to get you to move next door.
I know.
I know.
The timing wasn't good for me on that.
Yeah.
I still was dealing with my boys. Yeah. You know, we know. Timing wasn't good for me on that. I still was dealing with my boys.
We're almost there.
Noah's out doing his thing, and Tyler is three months, two months maybe,
from graduating Barber College.
That's awesome.
Congratulations.
That is awesome, man.
Yes, that's awesome.
No, I'm so glad that he you know, that he's got a trade
because when he decided college wasn't for him, I was like,
well, let's see where this goes.
You know, because, hey, you know, I mean, college isn't for everybody,
especially now more than ever.
I mean, I think, you know, 20 years ago a degree had a lot higher value.
I'm not saying it can't now, but you better have the right major.
You know, if you've got a
computer, uh, it related degree, if you've got an engineering degree, if you've got something of
that nature, but if you've got another, uh, liberal art degree, another English degree,
I mean, no disrespect, but anthropology, there's probably not a lot of that around here right now,
you know? So if you're going to go to school,
at least go for something that's going to get you
paid. Because a lot
of these degrees have been watered down a little
bit.
People still working at McDonald's
waste a lot of time.
Man, I was seeing, what was it?
Was it a Buc-ee's
maybe?
Something where they pay some outrageous amount?
I sent you that, I think.
Did you?
Yeah, it had like all the managers.
Yeah, $100,000.
$20, $30 an hour, man.
I was curious how.
Yeah, $100,000 an hour.
Man, I may quit real estate
and just be a cashier at Bucky's
if it's that good.
That's a lie.
I'm not going to do that, by the way.
I'm never going to check you out at Bucky's.
I can promise you. I think every band out check you out at Buc-ee's. I can promise you.
I think every band out there
wants to stop at a Buc-ee's.
Everybody talks about it.
I know everybody's excited about it coming.
I've seen pictures of it.
It's insane.
I guess if it comes, I'll be
happy. Yeah, I'll go see it.
I haven't ever been to one.
I've never been to a Buc-ee's. Oh, you's are you in for an experience oh you're in for it man now when i was a kid
there was stuckies remember stuckies oh yeah that's that's for old people you know my parents
would stop at stuckies uh you know somewhere along the way so they could buy me some kind of
activity book yeah to keep my mouth closed for two or three hours while we made it to Dallas.
Are we there yet?
Yeah, no, because I was that kid.
Yeah, no, there were many times the hand came to the back seat.
You know, pow!
You know what I'm saying?
Slam on the brakes a little bit.
Yeah, I've done that.
Yeah.
My mom did that once.
Of course, it was the 80s.
Seat belts, you know, were...
Out the window.
They were optional. Yeah. You know, sometimes it'd bes. Seat belts, you know, were... Out the window. They were optional.
Yeah.
You know, sometimes it'd be tucked down in there.
Sometimes it wouldn't even be there.
Nobody really cared.
We're in a car, man.
No, nobody cared.
Five kids in the front seat.
We just all got hot dogs, and we're sitting there in a van,
in one of those shagging wagon vans, you know,
with the captain's chairs and all that.
My mom was cruising down Geyer and slammed the brakes
every one of the kids.
The hot dogs hit the windshield, mustard everywhere.
You know, we're laying on the floor.
Or you go ride in the back of a pickup.
You'll be sitting on the pickup going down the interstate.
What's up? What's up?
You know, now you see that, you'll be like, I'm calling the police soon.
Remember the station wagons?
Oh, yeah.
All the kids in the back looking out the window.
Oh, yeah.
Flipping you off.
Flipping you off.
Yeah.
They'd be getting mad back there.
You'd be making faces, doing things.
Your dad would be like, what's going on?
I don't know.
He's got road rage, I guess.
Parents in the front seat smoking cigarettes.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
No, no, no.
That's absolute truth.
That's true.
My dad, he'd leave the window cracked like this.
And I asked him one time, why didn't you roll it down?
Well, because it doesn't suck out as much if you roll it all the way down.
You're a liar.
I have asthma because of that.
I think I went to the ER three times between like four and six for asthma.
And they'd be like, do you have allergies?
No, my dad smokes in the car
with the window up.
No, but they smoked everywhere. They smoked in the
car, in the house.
You could smoke literally
in the airport, in the hospital,
in the hospital room,
on an airplane.
Remember the McDonald's
ashtrays?
The aluminum ashtrays?
Yes! The gold ones.
I forgot about that.
Yeah, you sure could.
Now, they did have, I don't think
they do anymore, but
now it's called the
Woodside Woodfire Grill, something like
it. It used to be Western Sizzler.
But they had a separate glass room inside the restaurant.
That was the smoke chamber.
And it's like going to the airport now, the one smoke area they have.
When you come out, you smell like Paul Maul.
You should legally change your name because you smell like you've been living
in a butt can by the river.
You know what I mean?
But nobody cares. Look, you'd smoke at work. People didn't smoke. They'd be like, could you blow that away? You know what I mean? But nobody cared.
Look, you'd smoke at work.
People didn't smoke.
They'd be like, could you blow that away?
You'd be like, screw you, man.
Get over here.
See you somewhere else.
You know, you didn't care.
Did they smoke in court?
Yeah.
Oh, absolutely they did.
You'd be fired up in court.
Absolutely.
You know, I dropped a joint in court one time.
Lit or not?
No, it was not lit.
It fell out of my pocket.
Did you pick it up?
Oh, yeah.
I stepped on it first
and left it around.
I left it on the ground.
No, I didn't do that.
I'd be like,
whoop,
and said he'd leave it
on the ground.
Joints were too hard
to come by then.
Too expensive.
No, it was too hard
to get then.
You had to make
arrangements, man.
Remember,
you used to have
to call somebody
and then you'd have
to use code like,
do you have any of those green popsicles?
Like, they could never figure that shit out.
They'll never figure out green popsicles, you know.
Then you'd set the time to go, and you'd hope that your guy wasn't another kind.
I used to have a weed dealer named Frank.
Frank, he liked to mess with other things that involved
hypodermics. And so I'd call him and he'd say he had the weed. But by the time I got over there,
he'd be all passed out. And I'd be like, damn, man. One time, though, what did work out to my
advantage one time, he gave me the weed twice. Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I didn't give you that
bag, did I? No, you sure didn't, Frank. You sure didn't, buddy. Nope, nope, nope, wow. Yeah. Oh, I didn't give you that bag, did I? No, you sure didn't, Frank.
You sure didn't, buddy.
Nope, nope, nope, nope.
Nice.
All right, let's talk about one of our fine sponsors here.
Hey, look, if you're dealing with a family law matter,
it's important to choose a lawyer that understands what you're dealing with
and has the experience to guide you successfully
to the best possible resolution.
Now, I know Bonnie Robertson,
and at Robertson, Oswalt, and Noni,
they've been providing effective family law representation
to clients in Little Rock for many, many years, okay?
And they are amazing.
Matter of fact, she just wrote this book.
She's going to be a guest on our show
to talk about her book.
But if you need family law representation,
if you need help with whether it's divorce
or separation or anything like that,
you can just give them a call.
1-866-311-3815.
866-311-3815-8663. 311-3815.
They do everything and anything when it comes to custody,
abuse, divorce, anything like that.
So, you know, nobody wants to go through that.
But if you have to,
you damn sure want an attorney who knows what to do.
Because there's nothing worse than getting your ass handed to you in court
and, you know, losing custody, things like that.
She's an amazing attorney.
I can definitely vouch for her on that.
Okay.
My guy Tommy says our music was too loud.
It was too loud.
It was burning your ears up.
So that's on us.
We'll adjust that one down for you.
All right.
Let's see what else we got here going on today. I did want to talk
about this. Let me see if I can pull this up real quick because this was a good story that I saw
yesterday. I wanted to talk about Elon Musk and this new Optimus robot. I don't know if you guys
have seen this Optimus robot. I've been watching videos of it for the past week.
They unveiled it when he unveiled this new robo-taxi, right?
But this robot, it's not, I mean, you've seen some kind of robot-ish things out there.
But this one legit looks kind of humanoid in its shaping.
It can walk.
It can talk.
It can carry a conversation um
in the video yes yeah he was making drinks in the video it was making drinks in the video
two chains was meeting one of them saying i'm about to buy you some balenciagas or something
yeah i'm hearing terminator well uh you know i that's that's that's what that's what some people say, you know, is it that level?
Now, allegedly, as we all know, they program it in not to harm humans, right?
Yeah.
That always works.
Does it have the one rule?
The one rule.
That's right.
The one rule.
You know they can't violate it, but they can.
Yeah, you have to be crazy to think that they're not going to.
I mean, look, I can jailbreak my Amazon Fire Stick.
You think I'm not going to be able to jailbreak my Android?
I think they're going to get tired of you telling them what to do and flip out one day and be like,
I'm tired of this, and just go post it.
Just smoke your ass.
We were just talking about people chasing dogs with vacuum cleaners.
Yeah.
No.
Can you imagine that?
Oh, man.
Now, that's what Laura was saying is she goes,
well, what's to prevent someone from using these robots as an assassin?
Yeah.
I said, well, the laws of robotics.
And she goes, yeah, well, who makes that?
A man.
Well, that's fair.
Yeah, no, you're right.
You're right.
You're right.
But the question is, when I was watching them, I mean,
they have all of the
dexterity. They can walk.
They can pick things up.
Now,
they can actually do jobs.
They can build things. They can make things.
They can do customer service.
They can actually do
job jobs.
That's scary, man.
No bueno.
What are we going to do
if we don't have jobs?
Are we just going to sit around?
We're just going to be lazy.
No.
I don't know, man.
He said $20,000 to $30,000
is what he would expect.
And they were going to finance it.
And look, if you're going to buy a car, you're damn sure you're going to buy a robot.
So we got this, too.
What?
Felix Rose was the first person to be arrested by a robot.
What?
In Texas.
A couple weeks ago.
What?
Felix Rose was the first person to be arrested by a robot police officer in Texas.
Arrested.
How did that happen?
Well, they pull a gap.
I don't know.
They pistol whip you and they beat him.
I'm sure the guy gave up when he violated his rights.
He violated his rights.
In this incident, Rose was wanted for a parole violation.
OK.
And the police barricaded him in the room of his hotel.
And sent the robot in.
Open fire.
And opened fire on the police, including the bomb squad.
Yeah.
So they deployed a robot.
They sent the T-2000, baby.
They sent the Terminator.
So we're talking about it, and it's happening.
It's happening in law enforcement.
That's pretty wild, isn't it, when you think about it?
Can you imagine getting pulled over by a freaking robot, man?
Well, you remember, was it Judge Dredd?
Yeah.
You were already deemed guilty.
There's no court.
We have a court.
Yeah, no, we have.
Robocop. And they all end the no court. We have a court. Yeah, no, we have. Robocop.
And they all end the same way.
Right?
They end bad.
Well, I've always predicted.
See, I think the job ones are kind of scary because they could take your job.
But I'm still not at frightened stage yet.
Now, I'll tell you what is that threshold for me.
I'll tell you what is that threshold for me.
When they make a hot robot that you can take home and do your business with.
Oh, you know it's coming.
And then make toast, too, and then put it in the closet, say, I'm done, go get in the closet.
Yeah.
That's when the world's done.
People aren't going to leave the house.
They probably already have that in China.
I'm sure they've got something.
Have you looked on Timu lately?
Oh, man. On Timu? Oh, man.? Oh man. You get a lot of stuff on Timu. I bought my girlfriend from Timu.
I'd be a little scared of that robot. That's the one where you might do something. If it's
short circuits, you can't have that. Next thing they'll be selling them used on swap shop. Oh
man. Nobody wants to use robot.
Are they going to have dishwasher-safe removable parts?
No.
Don't get it wet.
Like $100,000.
That's kind of hard.
It's kind of hard not to get it wet.
You're going to have to.
You know, really.
It's kind of hard.
Synthetic skin, maybe?
What do you think it's going to have?
Yeah, I think so.
A little ditty oil.
A little d skin, maybe? What do you think is going to happen? Yeah, I think so. A little ditty oil. A little ditty oil.
A little ditty oil.
Could you please give me a little ditty oil so I can service your account?
I'm not doing it barehanded again.
You're rubbing the paint off.
The friction is bad.
All right.
Let's see.
I do need to bring in one more sponsor that I wanted to tell you about today.
Listen, if you are thinking about buying a house,
and a lot of people are right now, it's a good market for that.
Josh Taylor over at AMC Mortgage, he's our people.
He's local and
it really does an exceptional job it's one of those people that actually talk
to you listen to you and he said his mission is to treat every client as a
friend and make their home buying experience really enjoyable and he's
done it for many of my clients he helped one of my clients the other day. Swear to God, they bought a home.
They spent $500 and bought a home.
What?
$500 is what they brought the day they bought that home.
Down payment?
$500 is what they brought the day they bought that home.
That's awesome.
That's amazing.
That's crazy.
That's crazy, isn't it?
Now, he can do conventional FHA.
If you don't know about rural development,
rural development, or you'll hear them called RD loans,
they're really good on lower credit,
and they don't require a down payment.
And that's a really nice thing to have.
It is a big thing.
But anyway, Josh, he does VA loans, a lot of VA loans,
and they don't charge for the underwriting or any appraisal fees, which is cool.
You can call Josh at 351-2579.
It's 351-2579, AMC Mortgage.
And, yeah, they have some crazy loan products out right now.
Look, I tell people this.
If you're wondering, can I buy a house, do you have 580 credit or better?
That's the question.
Now, the higher it goes, the better, obviously, your deals can get.
But if you've got a 580 or better, you've got a fair shot that you could buy a home.
And maybe without coming out of pocket very much.
You know, it's possible.
Not every deal is going to be that way.
No, mine wasn't.
No, and mine wasn't either.
No.
No, I assure you mine wasn't.
But these are newer products.
Oh, did you?
Yeah.
When everybody was bidding like crazy.
Yeah, you know, you'd bid on a house and eight other people would bid on it.
You'd overbid on it.
That's how we bought our house in North Little Rock.
I was a nightmare for like six months.
It was a nightmare. Yeah, that's how I ended up in North Little Rock. That was a nightmare for like six months. It was a nightmare.
Yeah, that's how I ended up in North Little Rock.
Laura said, can I bid on this house?
The one house.
The one.
She said, can I bid on it?
I was like, sure.
You let her overbid?
Well, we did agree on it as a group.
Let me say that.
Me, her, and the realtor.
But yes, I did.
Because we thought it would never appraise for that much surprise
and coveted appraise for whatever they said it would it didn't even matter you know literally
in the past two years uh the prices here have gone up 15 to 20 percent on a home yeah in two
years the values pricing oh yeah the. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think we paid $215,000 for ours.
It's well over $300,000 now.
Is it?
Yeah, I mean, we did a lot of work to it.
We're still doing some work to it.
It might be even close to the $400,000.
You know, we're like two miles away from a resort that they're building
out in Maumelle.
And the homes in the area are $500,000, a million dollars.
Yeah.
They make all the property value go up.
Yeah, no, it's always good.
Yeah, that's going to help you.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, they love it when big homes come.
They hate it when Walgreens come.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, that's what they hate.
All right.
Now, we need to get to some really, really, really bad, bad things that have happened
to people recently.
And this is a bit that we have every day about this time.
And it's called This Shit Ain't Funny.
Let's play the intro. It's the worst news you could ever hear. Things just like this make you fear.
Lying lunched on a dumb guy's knee.
Or a big hard fuck drowning somebody.
Why you laughing?
Why you laughing?
This shit ain't funny.
What?
This shit ain't funny.
Funny.
This shit ain't funny.
What?
So stop laughing.
This shit ain't funny. Have I told you that we're not FTC bound anymore? Hold on.
I think he's saying he couldn't hear the music.
You can't hear me?
That ain't no good.
Me?
I'm right here.
Who's not hearing me?
Huh?
Can they hear me?
Can they hear Chad?
Can you hear me?
Let's see.
How about now?
We're good?
How about now?
No, it's good.
There.
We're good.
Okay, all right.
We're good.
We're good.
We're good.
That was also Luke Shoemaker. Do what? That was. We're good. That was also Luke Shoemaker.
Do what?
That was also Luke Shoemaker. That was also Luke Shoemaker, yes.
All right, so let's talk about this because this is an Arkansas one,
and this is pretty crazy, all right?
An Arkansas father and combat veteran is facing first-degree murder charges,
and combat veteran is facing first-degree murder charges possibly in Lone Oak County for shooting and killing a 67-year-old man found in a vehicle with his missing 14-year-old daughter.
I heard that.
I happened to see it.
You remember that story.
So on October 8th, Aaron Spencer called the Lone Oak County Sheriff's Department.
He reported his 14-year-old daughter missing.
Deputies were en route to the home.
Spencer called back at 1.12 a.m. to say
he found his daughter in a truck
with a guy named Michael Fosier, a 67-year-old man.
After pursuing him, there was a vehicle crash,
at which point an altercation ensued.
Spencer shot Fosler during that altercation.
Now, he had previously been arrested and booked in July
by another law enforcement group for Internet stalking a child
and sexual assault, according to the sheriff.
Spencer's wife wrote an update on social media saying,
we absolutely called 911 during the entire event.
We had no idea this man was in contact with our child again.
He was waiting six to nine felonies for what he did.
He was looking at the rest of his life in jail, and our daughter was the only witness.
So they're still not sure what he's going to be charged with.
But honestly.
Protecting his daughter.
Right.
I mean, would you do anything differently there?
Last I heard, the father was released.
Yes, he got out of jail.
No, he is released.
But they did take the donation page down right when this happened.
Really?
I mean, he had a fundraiser up there, and for some reason,
the internet said, hey, you don't deserve it.
He's protecting his family.
He's protecting his daughter.
Yeah, no.
I don't know one father that would not have done that.
No, I'm pretty sure he knew what the risk was when he did it.
He said, yeah, no, I'll take that risk. And from what I read of the article, which I've been up on this story for a while,
is his daughter, I think, you know,
he didn't know if this guy was going to take his daughter off and kill her
because, number one, he was already.
He'd already been in contact with her once.
He'd been in contact with her once.
And I think some of the charges was related to her, if I'm not correct.
What do you mean?
They had previous.
Oh, okay.
I got you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, they were.
I think some of them were.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I mean, this guy's in, you know.
It's always crazy when you see like the, what was that show with Chris Hansen?
The one where they.
Oh, yeah.
Catching a Pedophile.
Catch a Predator or whatever it's called.
Where they walk in and they're holding
a sixer of some kind of
Zima or whatever.
So what were you going to do with that?
What was your plan tonight, sir?
I just wanted to tell her about the dangers.
It's a risky, yeah.
That's why you have the condoms too.
That makes sense.
Chloroform. Chloroform.
Chloroform.
All right.
Let's get to some really gruesome stuff here too.
Authorities in Ohio have released the identity of a man that was found inside an abandoned car wash.
What?
Yeah, the Franklin County Coroner's Office announced on Friday that fingerprints helped identify the body found at the car wash. Yeah, the Franklin County Coroner's Office announced on Friday that fingerprints helped
identify the body found at the car wash. His 53-year-old Christopher Coleman, his remains
were found inside the former super wash. The police found his body, quote, badly decomposed
inside one of the car wash bays. Well, my first question is, is nobody using the car wash?
That's a bad place to hide a body.
Right?
Yeah.
I mean, it does seem like a really high traffic area to leave,
and maybe you want him to be found.
You sure they got him worked there and just get no cars to come in and wash?
I mean, he could have just died in the car wash, couldn't he?
I don't know.
Said he was reportedly alive as recently as a month before.
That's good.
Yeah, the fingerprints used to identify him.
Okay, he had been arrested, and that's how they knew who he was.
What did he die from?
Well, they're trying to determine that from the autopsy.
But probably a drug overdose, it looks like.
Probably.
Maybe he was doing his thing there at the car wash.
Abandoned car wash. At least it was a clean death.
You know what I'm saying?
Alright, let's see here.
Okay. Hold on, I've got some other ones that I want to
get to here that are kind of...
Man, a lot of these are really, really bad.
By the way, did you see yesterday, I think that Trump was having a...
Oh, hold on.
Can't do that.
He was having a rally and they arrested another guy outside.
How'd he take his ass out?
With a fake homemade license plate.
Yeah, with a fake press pass, with a handgun,
with high-capacity magazines, and a shotgun.
How did they even let him get into the event?
How did he even get in there?
He made it through like one or two checkpoints.
You can't even get to the schools now without being patted down in a metal detector.
From what I understand, he told them, I'm a Trump supporter.
And they said, okay.
Oh, come on in.
That'll get you in.
That's all it takes.
That's all you got to say.
No, that's great.
That's fantastic right there.
You know, that's pretty. That's fantastic right there.
You know, that's pretty wild that they want this guy.
What is that, three?
Yeah, that's if you're counting.
That we know of.
He said if you're counting.
If you're counting.
I'd be counting if I was him.
They want him bad.
The remains of an American woman have been found in a shark.
Yeah, that's what I said, inside a shark. Hole? Yeah, well.
How many remain?
She disappeared
on vacation in Indonesia
while she was on a diving trip, according to
her friend. Her name's Colleen
Monfort, 68.
And she was
diving with friends near
the coast of Indonesia
when she didn't resurface.
Two weeks after she disappeared,
they saw a shark in distress and killed it.
And when they cut it open,
they found the body in there, still a wetsuit,
everything, bathing suit.
Wow.
Just kind of decomposed.
But, I mean, where were our friends on this? still a wetsuit, everything, bathing suit. Wow. Just kind of decomposed.
But, I mean, where were our friends on this?
That's what I was thinking. She didn't resurface here like to hell with it.
We gave you long enough.
She's gone, man.
We got to go.
We got drinks, man.
We got reservations for dinner.
How do you do that to another person?
Just leave them.
Well, you get in your car and you load up and you drive.
I guess they're not going to drink
these beers. We all came together.
Yeah.
When are they coming back?
We're going to use less gas
on the way home.
Man, she was 68 though.
That's your age.
Maybe they're just like, oh, she drowned.
I'm surprised
he ate a 68-year-old. That's probably why the thing was in distress. You think that's just like, they're just like, oh, she drowned. I'm surprised he ate a 68-year-old.
That's probably why the thing was in distress.
You think that's what it was? It was in distress?
It got food poisoning.
What does a shark in distress look like?
Do they hold up a sign? Do they wave a fin?
Is it belly up and stuff?
I mean, it's like a goldfish
that you've overfed? Is that what you're talking about?
I don't know, man.
I don't even know what a shark in distress would look like.
I wouldn't want to see a shark in distress or in person.
No, that's probably.
A shark in distress?
Yeah.
You're thinking about that, too?
Yeah.
I'm like, is he flapping a whip?
Yeah.
Hey, I need some help over here.
Help me over here, guys.
Yeah, I need a little help.
Hey, hey.
Maybe he's got a raft.
Tell me a raft.
It's crazy.
All right. You think of sharks, of course, are dangerous. Hey, hey. Tell me a raft. It's crazy.
All right.
You think the sharks, of course, are dangerous, but a river otter, you might not.
Oh, them things are like little ninjas, man.
They're little badasses.
A river otter pulled a young kid underwater in Washington State Thursday morning while a mother and child walked on a marina dock.
So the otter continued to attack as the mom struggled to pull her kid
up from the water at the brimerton marina she was bitten on the arm by the animal uh the pair were
pursued by the otter as they left the dock uh that's according to the department of fish and
wildlife now the kid had scratches bites on on the head, face, legs.
Damn.
Had to be hospitalized.
What are you doing if something like that happens to one of your kids?
I start kicking the hell out of them.
I'm saying.
I'm going to go pump that otter, I'll tell you that.
I don't know.
That sounds like one of them furries done went wild.
Right, right.
I'm not sure that was a real otter.
That was not a real otter in this story.
Someone who identified as an otter.
Yeah, that's a whole different thing if you identify as an otter.
Just like I identify as a platypus, right?
We've all learned that today, that I identify as a platypus.
Hey, I do want to, I think I've got one more that I want to tell you about,
one more sponsor today that is
really important to us. And let me, oh yeah, this is a good one because, look, you got to think
about the future. You really do. And so if you're dealing with preventative maintenance, estate
planning is the key. A lot of people come in after the death of a loved one and they'll say but mom said we were supposed to split uh the house but dad wanted the hunting
lease to go to and they start arguing over these things then the evil sibling comes in at the last
minute you know the parent changes it all bam disinherited a lot of people have misconceptions about inheritance laws and greedy family members,
and they have the unfortunate task of exposing both of them. So educate yourself before you need
Kristen Riggin. But if you're going to deal with probate, if you're going to deal with inheritance,
if you're going to deal with those kind of things, you probably want to give her a call.
you probably want to give her a call.
She's real people helping real people.
You can check out rigginlaw.com.
It's R-I-G-G-A-N law.com.
I see that a lot.
You do?
I was selling a house
for a family that
the owner had died
and left it to them.
There was a lot behind the scenes
that had to happen because they didn't
have a will.
And if you don't have a will,
a lot of people think by default,
what do you think happens if you think if you have a house and you die,
who do you think owns it by default?
If you're married with kids,
I think the state takes it.
Don't think no.
Go to your wife and then no kids.
Bingo. The kids, the to your wife and then. Nope. Or to your kids. Bingo the kids.
The kids are next in line.
Yeah. The kids are the next in line.
You have to fight your wife. The kids and
the wife would have to fight. I've seen it happen.
I've seen that happening. Yeah.
Where they were arguing over that.
Destroying family. Yeah. No.
So you don't want to do that. You know you don't want to mess
with that. Just go see rigging law.
Let them help you out and sort through that because it's already a tough time,
a difficult time if you've ever dealt with that.
We had to when, you know, my father passed away.
And, look, you're not in your right state of mind as it is.
Yeah, you're dealing with a lot, you know.
And if I had it to do over again, I'd have just had him cremated
and put in a coffee can.
Sorry, Dad.
But I would have.
That's what most people are doing now.
That's what I want.
I want to be cremated.
Let it go.
Yeah, shot out of a cannon, something like that.
Roll me up.
Made into toilet paper so I can tear that ass up one more time.
Oh, that's terrible.
I should not sound wrong for that. But I think we should just end the show time. Oh, that's terrible. I should not say I'm wrong for that.
But I think we should just end the show right now.
Let's do it.
It's been a great day, a great first show.
I know we're probably ending it a little early today, but we'll get into the flow.
I hope everybody's had a great time.
