6
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: on Valentine's Day for a few weeks. I begged her

7
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: to move it a couple of days before or after

8
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: so she didn't have to share her special day with

9
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: every other woman on the planet. Today, we're going out

Speaker 1: to compromise, and she married a genius. John Holiday Mallow,

Speaker 1: Chief executive Officer, Cursive Media. How about that ramon celebrating

14
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:36,560

15
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: the papers and throw the papers away. I never watched

16
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: the didokim? Did you? I didn't want to see rush

17
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 1: I know it's weird, right, I didn't want to see rush.

18
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to hear rush greatest Major League Baseball promotional

19
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,640

00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety three. Chuck Morgan, the Rangers executive vice president,

25
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: says about the Ryan bloody jersey promo night, quote, this

26
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: would rank pretty high on a list of Nolan giveaways.

27
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: You can go to almost in these sports bar in

28
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: the country and see a picture of that hanging on

29
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: the wall, that picture of Nolan Ryan about to enter

30
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: his warm up, I mean his wind up, and his

31
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: lip is split open and there's blood on his chest,

32
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: and he's about to bring the heat. He's brand of

33
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: hate and he's going to throw that twelve six curveball.

34
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: See that's the thing we don't talk about. I'll tell

35
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,399
Speaker 1: you what it's ten for the rest of the show today,

36
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about Nolan Ryan's twelve six curveball

37
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: because it's one of the greatest curveballs in all of history.

38
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: When you consider as a standalone curveball, it's pretty good.

39
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: When you consider that that thing is how many mins.

40
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: What do you think the disparity between that high looping

41
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: curveball and his fastball is. It's not twenty five miles

42
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: a hour, though it's a lot. As a hitter, if

43
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: you're sitting on that fastball, which is which is hard

44
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: to hit, and you load and you start into your

45
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: swing and that curveball is out there, you're looking like

46
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: a fool, I mean, a complete fool, because that thing

47
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: is taken forever. And you see these guys. Shit, I

48
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: can watch them all day. You see these guys. They're

49
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: sitting on that fastball, they load, they go into their swing,

50
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: their hips have already started to turn. Their bat is

51
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: over the plate, and the ball is halfway there, and

52
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: and then they're out, especially if he shows it throws

53
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: it short, so they can't they can't really put anything

54
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: on it, even if they do make contacts. To me,

55
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: a groundball and they're out over the plate playing golf

56
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: at his pitch. Ah ah. It's one of the most

57
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: beautiful aspects of of baseball that doesn't get talked about.

58
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: This just this constant chess game between the pitcher and

59
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: the batter as orchestrated by the catcher. I mean it

60
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: really is in the world of sports. It's one of

61
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: the great tactical battle Royales and real baseball fans, real

62
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: baseball fans of the old school. I don't like George

63
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: Will's political opinions, but his baseball, his elevating baseball to

64
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: a thinking man's sports. It is. Ah, it's glorious, just glorious. Anyway.

65
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,559
Speaker 1: This is the great georget George Brett of Pine Tar fame,

66
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: against whom Nolan was pitching that ball, because you remember

67
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: it was Bo Jackson, greatest two sport athlete of all time. Yeah,

68
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: better than Dion, Yes, I don't know, that's a lie,

69
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: I say it. Yeah, probably because he's a better baseball player.

70
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: He hits that ball off of Nolan's glove bus Nolan's

71
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 1: mount and here they are talking about Nolan on the

72
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: mound after that. Just so damn tough and some wildflowers.

73
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: This is George Brett, by the way, Rustling Moll's best

74
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: friend at that point in his life, because you remember

75
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: Rush worked for the for the Royals organization. He's a

76
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: little on top of her and the ball got lost

77
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: in the rain drows.

78
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 2: The ball split his lip boat and no one could

79
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 2: stick his tongue through his lip right here, because it

80
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: was like cut from there down.

81
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: He finished that inning somehow.

82
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 2: In between innings he went into the clubhouse. Doctor mcgowski

83
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 2: stitched him up, went back out and finished the game.

84
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: He's dicky was intimidating before try facing them.

85
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: What does ranger unifold just covered with blood?

86
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: Now that's intimidating. When George Bratt, one of the greatest

87
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: hitters of all time, talks about you being intimidating, ramon

88
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: three most intimidating pictures you ever saw that you expect

89
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: were the three most intimidating pictures the big unit. Okay,

90
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: uh Dwight goodness a correct answer? Oh night train was good?

91
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: You know, think about it is he really was? He

92
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,799
Speaker 1: wasn't good that long. I don't know how intimidating Mariano

93
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: Rivera was, but I will tell you for the pure

94
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: beauty of the sport, the chess of the sport, Mariano

95
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: even more so than Nolan a gy No, No, that's

96
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: not true. I'll tell you who for me was. That

97
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: was the professor Greg Maddox. Greg Maddox had a string

98
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know us attached to his

99
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: finger and he would just put the ball on that

100
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: string and shoot it down there to the outside of

101
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: the plate, close enough that it could be called to strike,

102
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: but far enough out that the best you could hope for.

103
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: The best you could hope for was a single to

104
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: right field, and very few hitters could do that. He

105
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: would move the ball around with such precision. He didn't

106
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: have great stuff, but his control was amazing. Roger Clemens

107
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: oh Man Man watching Clement's rare back remind me of

108
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: Robert Cole too too. We called him. He hit me

109
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: with a fastball and hit Oh sorry, I went back

110
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: to my time. H let's do it. I truly believe

111
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: seven one three nine nine nine one thousand seven one

112
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: three nine nine nine one thousand. You want to you

113
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: want to announce who you're voting for? It great. I'm

114
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: not gonna let you do a diatribe on the other candidate,

115
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: but I will let you say who you're gonna vote

116
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: for in which office or just what you know, who

117
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: has the best chocolate pie in town, or chili or

118
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: French fries or whatever else you want to do. Don't

119
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: be meek. You ain't inheriting the influence of the show.

120
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: If you are seven one three nine nine nine one thousand.

121
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: It's a little I truly believe because it felt like

122
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: a good time for that seven one three nine ninety

123
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: nine one thousand. Matt Trumble sent me and I truly

124
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: believe email he said, I truly believe it's time for

125
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: RCC two point zero. Matt Trumbull was our last big

126
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: ass to come on board before the RCC closed. It

127
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: has bothered me ever since then because I've wanted to

128
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: open a new club for him and him alone, because

129
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: I felt like he owed, he was owed that he

130
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: came to us later. We wasn't one of the early guests,

131
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: and he ended up being one of my favorite members.

132
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: And just never asked for a thing. Just always wants

133
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: to contribute. If if miss Connie needs something, let me

134
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: help miss Connie. If if the veterans need something, want

135
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: me help them. And he loves the music. He hosts

136
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: parties at his house. He'll have breebag Well and some

137
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: of the artists. They'll stay at his house, or he'll

138
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: hire them. When COVID was going on and they couldn't

139
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: find gigs, he would hire them. They'd come and stay

140
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: to his house. They'd played in his backyard, and he'd

141
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: pay them like they were playing a big gig. Anyway,

142
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 1: it is time for an RCC two point zero. It's

143
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: going to be different. It is going to be different.

144
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be involved in the day to day.

145
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going to tolerate one person bitching and the

146
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: first it's done, I'm going to block that person and

147
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: walk away from them. It is exhausting. I can't begin

148
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: to tell you. Maybe it sounds like I'm whining, but

149
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: you have no idea. That's the only thing I dread

150
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: about doing it again. So I want to be very clear.

151
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: I am not going to be the owner. I'm going

152
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: to show up. I'm going to promote it. I'm not

153
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: going to be the person to tell because people can't

154
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: help themselves. Hey wow, that's the best place ever. I

155
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: have my favorite place in ah. I love this place,

156
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 1: morn anywhere else. I'm glad you opened this place. I

157
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: love place morning. Hey, oh, Michael, the third a stall

158
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: don't have no toilet paper, Michael, I don't want to

159
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: hear that. I'm not here to be the janitor that.

160
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. So anyway, yes, we

161
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: are getting close to doing a deal. It is. By

162
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: the way, I'm about to tell you where it is.

163
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: You don't need to tell me that that's not a

164
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: good spot. I'm not going to then go oh, okay,

165
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: well then I'll move it over here. The deal has

166
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: to make sense, the property has to make sense. The

167
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: price has to be low enough that we can oper

168
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: rate without much business and it isn't a financial drain.

169
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: It's hard for people to understand. When you are a consumer,

170
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: you have no idea what goes on on the other side.

171
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 1: The burn rate of a business, particularly that type of business,

172
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: is so much higher than you can ever imagine. It

173
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: will not be like the RCC. It will not be overstaffed, oversecured.

174
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: You could eat food off that. I'm not doing that anymore. Nope,

175
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: We're going to do like an Austin beer house mindset.

176
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: It's not going to be concert driven. Concerts are hard

177
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: forget making money. I never intended to make money. I

178
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: just wanted a place that could be my hobby that

179
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: would cover itself. It's hard to cover yourself in a

180
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: hobby business because I gave away too much free stuff

181
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: and I made stuff too nice, and you can't monetize

182
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: that because everybody wants things to be really nice, but

183
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: they don't want to pay for it. So you've got

184
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: to keep your costs low enough that they're complaining about

185
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: the quality, not the price. And that's going to be

186
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: the role. It's going to be more of an ice

187
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: house and a hangout because at the end of the day,

188
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: my real value added.

189
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 3: Is you.

190
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: Want to hang out with other us. You don't want

191
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: to go to a regular bar, whether it's a biker bar,

192
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: country bar, gay bar, a meet up bar, singles bar,

193
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: pop forty bar, concert driven bar. There's all sorts of

194
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 1: concept bars out there or bars that draw those types

195
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: of people. That's not what you want. You want to

196
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 1: be around other people just like you. I've learned that

197
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: that's our value, that's what nobody else has, and so

198
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: that's what we're going to create. It could be a

199
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: community center for all that. We've looked at wedding venues.

200
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: We've looked at over one hundred places. We run the

201
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: numbers on over one hundred places. It's crazy. It's at

202
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: I ten near ninety nine. I'll leave it there. I

203
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: could say which place it is. It's not fancy at all.

204
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: It's going to be very You know, if you ever

205
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: saw the RCC before we started it, it was condemned,

206
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: bullet holes everywhere, you wouldn't believe it. But we're not

207
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: going to do that fancy thing again. It's going to

208
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: be a nice house. It's going to be a place

209
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: to go. You can go for date night wearing flip

210
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: flops and shorts and a T shirt and have a beer.

211
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: They'll probably just be burgers on a on a grill

212
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: top it is. It's a ratty road with potholes on it.

213
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: It's private, it's at the end of a road. There's awnings,

214
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: there's it'll be an outdoor type place. When we do

215
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: have bands, it will not be the marquee bands that

216
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: we were bringing in before. The Willie Nelson's not getting

217
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: into that again. I got a show to focus on.

218
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: So Uncle Jerry will run it and own it and

219
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: that will be that, and it'll be fun and you

220
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: can show up and you can say it's not like

221
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: the RCC, because it won't be or not. That'll be

222
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: your call. But I just it wore me out before

223
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna let it destroy me again. I'm

224
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: not gonna let it destroy me. For the Matt Trumples,

225
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: the world. The people who show up and want to

226
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: have a good time to Connie Stagner's, They're gonna have

227
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: a good time. The people who love to bitch. And

228
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: there are people some of you love to bitch and

229
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: you don't even know you're that person. You just love

230
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: to criticize. I just I don't want to be subjected

231
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 1: to that again because I've enjoyed being away from it.

232
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: I don't like those kinds of personalities. But I'm your

233
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: biggest fan. I'm not yours, and that's okay. I'm not yours.

234
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: I don't like people like you. You are good as

235
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: a listener. You are not good as a guy trying

236
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: to come up and tell me what about this place

237
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: you would most change if you owned it, because you don't.

238
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: You never would anyway. So, since we've laid all that out,

239
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: it's the Katie area. I tend near ninety nine, some indoor,

240
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: some outdoor, very casual, run down, casual, what the RCC

241
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: probably should have been. It is not going to be

242
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: a place you're going to dress up. You're not going

243
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: to want to dress up. It's going to be the

244
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: place that if you're a guy who runs a business

245
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: and your work is done by noon, and then you

246
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: go eat and you drink in the afternoon, and you're

247
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 1: looking for dudes to come out and play. This will

248
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: be your place to go and there'll be other people

249
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: just like you. The Kuikerstafels and Scott Kutaches and thy

250
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 1: Strickland's and Rico will be on site and it'll be

251
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: a place to come and have a beard and hang

252
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: out around like minded people. That's the goal, to create

253
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: a space for like minded people. It is not going

254
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: to outdo. You can still go to your concerts. Wherever

255
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: you go to concerts. It will not be music driven.

256
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: There will occasionally be music. By the way. I'll go

257
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: ahead and say it. Bands are horrible to deal with.

258
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: They're horrible. I couldn't say that back then. They are awful.

259
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: You got one hundred bands in Houston alone who think

260
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 1: that they're the greatest thing ever and the only reason

261
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: they're not world famous is because the bar owners don't

262
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: show them the respect they're due. It's something else and

263
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: I just don't have the time or energy for it.

264
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: You didn't promote them enough, you're not paying them enough.

265
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: They bring all these they think they bring all these people,

266
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: they don't bring anybody. They don't want to play the hits,

267
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: they want to play the covers. They want to play

268
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: their own stuff that nobody knows anyway. So we're getting close.

269
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: Can you tell there's a lot of therapy I need

270
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: over this issue. You're my therapy, all right?

271
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: It is.

272
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: I truly believe the call's coming up. Art, it's not

273
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: truly believed. Let's get to it. Matt, You're up, You're

274
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: first up, Be great, Go Michael Berry. I truly believe

275
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: that Jesus Christ is the Way, the truth, and the life,

276
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: and that nobody gets to have an apart from faith

277
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: in him, John fourteen six. Remember Darryl, one of our

278
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: greatest emailers of Daryl and Diana fame under the intimidating

279
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: picture picture category set JR. Richard jar Richard was intimidating

280
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: for two reasons. Number one, his fastball was fast. Number two,

281
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: his control was awful, so you didn't know if you

282
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: were going to get a hit. And they were never

283
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: really sure if that was by that was intentional or not.

284
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: But it's sure made people nervous. Logan, you're up, What

285
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: do you truly believe?

286
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 4: I truly believe that man cannot fairly govern himself in

287
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 4: the United States of government.

288
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the United States of America is the only

289
00:15:55,640 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: government that has ever gotten close where well said Eric,

290
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: what do you truly believe?

291
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 3: I truly believe that a nation of our treats American

292
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 3: veterans like a dog treat the fire hydrant.

293
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: Are you a veteran?

294
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 3: Yes, sir.

295
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that you feel that way, and I'm sorry

296
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: that that they've given you reason to feel that way

297
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: that it bums me out. Seven one three nine nine

298
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: nine one thousand seven one three nine one thousand, seven

299

300
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: truly believe?

301
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 3: Two quick gu items Bob Gibson, Steve Carlton, and you

302
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 3: brought up a wild back of great female singers, Laura

303
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 3: Brannigan and he hassles with renaissance and Linda Ronstatt who

304
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 3: used to babysit for us.

305
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: Are you the Steve that had the salt company down

306
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: in Galveston? No, No, no, not me. Steve Gaines. You

307
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: remind me of him. He's he's a it's a savant.

308
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: He just has great wisdom on me any different subjects.

309
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: One of these interesting people. That was that you show.

310
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: Thank you, Steve, you said, Steve Carlton. You know, I'm

311
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: old enough to remember when Carlton and Nolan Ryan were

312
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 1: competing for all time strikeouts and they were going back

313
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: and forth, and I really I just worry that Nolan

314
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,479
Speaker 1: won't beat him. Well, Nolan ended up having I don't know,

315
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: a thousand more strikeouts than he did, seven hundred more.

316
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: I think number two was Randy Johnson. Carlton didn't even

317
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: come in second, and it was a longevity game, right,

318
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: That's that was? What did you mentioned? Bob Gibson. You know,

319
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: we can talk about great pictures in history when you

320
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: actually look at what Bob Gibson did. Sandy Kofax is famous.

321
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 1: I don't want to reduce his career. I don't want

322
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: to minimize him to make a point, but Sandy Kofax

323
00:17:54,320 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: did Don Larson perfect game, Sandy Kofax impressive. What Bob

324
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: Gibson did, it's almost incomprehensible the number of innings he pitched.

325
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: I was reading the other day about an extra inning

326
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: game he pitched, like thirteen fourteen innings. Shutout. A complete

327
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: game shutout is something we're going to extra innings. All right, coach,

328
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: I'm good, we're halfway. We're halfway through another game. Same day,

329
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: you still have'm going up a run. It's insane. You

330
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: know what else I saw the other day? Home run

331
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: king Hank Aaron. We never talk about Hank Aaron's one

332
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: of the being one of the greatest hitters of all time.

333
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron ranks in the top three in five different categories.

334
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: From in five different categories. I think Hank Aaron is

335
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: number three all time in hits. Now here's what's scary

336
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: about that he's number three in hits. All hits are

337
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,239
Speaker 1: not the same. You get a slap single hitter like

338
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 1: Tony Gwinn, great hitter, pure hitter, beautiful, wonderful, love it.

339
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron's hits were home runs. I mean Albert Poohols

340
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: is I thought the most unherlded hitter of all time.

341
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: When you actually look at at Hank Aaron's career stats,

342
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 1: why would you ever talk about Reggie Jackson again, not

343
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: even in a conversation, not even worthy of your time

344
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: that matter. Maris is not even worthy of your time.

345
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: Honus Wagner. None of the guys that are talked about

346
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: as greats Mike Smith, George Brett McGuire, Sammy Sosa. You

347
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 1: know that's a great season. When you look at what

348
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron did in the course of his career, I

349
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: don't know why we don't talk about him more. It

350
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: really is unbelievable. Look as much as I love Bijeo

351
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: and bagwell as being Houston Boys, when you look at

352
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron's career stats, it literally wipes the field of

353
00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: anybody else. Pete Rose has to bow before Karen. Go

354
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: check the stats before you tell me I'm crazy. Go

355
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: check them, Caleb, Go, what do you truly believe? Caleb?

356
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: I truly believe you didn't get off that cricket phone. Willie,

357
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: what do you truly believe?

358
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 3: I truly believe the RCC two point zero is going

359
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 3: to be the.

360
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: Best little ice house in Texas. Yeah, we'll see. I

361
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: don't want to set the expectations up too high seven

362
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: one three, nine nine, nine, one thousand, because people go

363
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: from yeah, yeah, do it, Yeah, we would love it too. Hey, uh,

364
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: there's a poll out front of road. The road's kind

365
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: of torn up. Could you get that fixed? Dennis, what

366
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: do you truly believe?

367
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: I truly believe the information is avail about the legality

368
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 4: of the clock shots, because they were going to use

369
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 4: the information against us to do what could keep us

370
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 4: from going to Mickey Dean, to keep.

371
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: Us from going for what oh Mickey D's, to Mickey.

372
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 4: D's or to live your life. They have that information

373
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 4: that was available. They were going to use it against

374
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 4: us to ruin our lives. And I want to know

375
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 4: how many people have died from that plot shot.

376
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: Including but including, but not limited to my brother. I

377
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: wonder how many other people who had no business getting

378
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: it died. You know, they fooled so many people, and

379
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: it's interesting how they fooled people. There are people who

380
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: want to argue with me over the efficacy of the

381
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: shot and go, well people died from it? Did they?

382
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: Did people die of COVID? Because I can show you

383
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 1: on a ten year graph the number of flu deaths,

384
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: and we didn't have any flu deaths that year. Huh.

385
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 1: Isn't that weird? The number of deaths related to the

386
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 1: flu or COVID before COVID are consistent across ten years.

387
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: So how is it that those two years, especially the

388
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: first one, the number of deaths didn't change from either

389
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: flu or COVID that just instead of being the flu,

390
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: they were covid and the flu just went away. That's

391
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: the naive neighbor. That's the nice neighbor problem. Our problem

392
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: is people just are not willing to believe that evil

393
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: people do evil things, and that those people wear lab coats,

394
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: those people are presidents of organizations, those people are in

395
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: powerful positions. They just cannot will not believe it. They

396
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: will not. They don't want to because to do so

397
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: would break their brain. It's better to have a childlike

398
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: mentality and keep lugging along. Patrick, what do you truly believe?

399
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 4: I do you believe that every need a boy one day?

400
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 4: I true believe that Michael Barry is the best talk

401
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 4: showing the manager right now.

402
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:32,880
Speaker 1: Wow, that's very kind of you to say. I don't

403
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: know if it's true, but it's very kind of you

404
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: to say. Can you imagine being Ron Paul? Can you

405
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: imagine living life as Ron Paul when you have had

406
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: the vision to see what they're doing and the mass

407
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: of people can't see through it, and you have to

408
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: bear that burden. Caleb on a better phone, go, I'm.

409
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 3: Might catch flags saying that are your to believe.

410
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: Well, firstly that you're the greatest talk true on radio,

411
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 1: and then just what the gentleman said.

412
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 3: But I don't deserve life, but I'm thankful for what

413
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 3: I've got, and God blessed the animals, troops, law enforcement and.

414
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: America Amen catching it. But seven nine one thousand, I

415
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: truly believe it comes up. What you really remember of

416
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: the RCC is not what it was. It's what it wasn't.

417
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: We never had to have a dress code at the RCC.

418
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: People are shocked when I say that. When you walk

419
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: into a bar and it says no ball caps, No,

420
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: you can't wear your jeans around your ankles. Uh no,

421
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: we all know what they're doing. No thugs, no gangbangers,

422
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: no punks. Just that simple. We didn't have that problem.

423
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: Just that simple. We didn't have that problem. There is

424
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with choosing to spend your time around people

425
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: you like and away from people you don't. There is

426
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 1: a there is a a sort of guilt complex that says, well,

427
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: we shouldn't judge people, we should go to places where

428
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: we don't feel comfortable, just so nobody thinks that we

429
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: don't feel comfortable. Dude, please let me know how it

430
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: turns out for you. I like to be around people

431
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: that I like to be around, just that some people say,

432
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: how am you never invite me over? Once you figure

433
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: that out, because I like to be around people who

434
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: are positive. I like to be around people that uplift

435
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: other people. Oh, uplift that's an effeminate term, ramon. I

436
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: like to be around people that encourage other people. I

437
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 1: like to be around people that are fun to be around.

438
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: You know a person is fun to be around because

439
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: after they leave, you go, oh, can't wait till I'll

440
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: see that person again. And you know people that are

441
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 1: not fun to be around because you realize that the

442
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: next day after you were around them, you're getting the

443
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: hey was some so talking about about me? Hey? You

444
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: know people that are not fun to be around because

445
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: when you have other people around you and they're not there,

446
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: they go, hey, how come I wasn't invited? Because I

447
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: can't invite you to everything? That'd be weird. My wife

448
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: doesn't come to everything. I don't want her to come

449
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: to everything, and she doesn't want to come to everything,

450
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: and nor should she, nor would it be good. There's

451
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 1: times I'm hanging out with the dudes if I've got

452
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: Uncle Jerry and five buddies and we're going to Houston

453
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: Gun Club for me to shoot awfully, Uncle Jerry to

454
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: shoot well, ken Wise to shoot well, other guys to

455
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: shoot well, and we're gonna have a good time. And

456
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: afterwards we're gonna do the stakes because it's Wednesday night

457
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,360
Speaker 1: and you bring your own steak and cook it out

458
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: and drink bourbon or beers. That's not a girly thing.

459
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: Or I'll do nights that are a couples nights and

460
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: I'll do knights. I'll send the text to everybody. Hey, guys,

461
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: here's what's going to happen. We're gona pay poker. The

462
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: guy's over, No girl's allowed. Ver we clear, no girl's allowed.

463
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: We shouldn't need to say that twice. And da da

464
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: da da. And there's always some dude who goes, hey,

465
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: can I bring my wife? No, you cannot. She really

466
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: wants to come. No, you cannot. It's not a co

467
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: ed event. And if you can't undersee people don't know

468
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: how to program events. That's part of the problem here.

469
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: Events don't just happen to be awesome on their own.

470
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: You understand the strategy, you understand what you're creating. Is

471
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: this a date night for the couples. Great, that's one

472
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: type of event. We do that. And then there's the

473
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: guys hanging out. Guys need guys hanging out time. You

474
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: wouldn't go crash the party in the middle of the

475
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: afternoon when your wife is having rose all day at

476
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: brass Free nineteen. That'd be weird. You wouldn't enjoy that,

477
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: and it would really ruin it for them because guess

478
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: what they're talking about. They're sitting around talking about vaginal dryness.

479
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: They're sitting around talking about cosmetic surgery. They're sitting around

480
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: talking caddy about other women. Because that's what women do

481
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: when they get together. That's what they do, and that's okay.

482
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: But that's not a place for you to be. You

483
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: need to be on your side over here with the dudes.

484
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: That's what we do, and that's okay. We don't need to.

485
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: That is a problem in modern society that it was

486
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: not there before your parents and grandparents. The fellas didn't

487
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: go try to crash the girls party, and the girls

488
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: didn't go try to crash the boys party, because you

489
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: understood they were on separate sides. They're very different y'all

490
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: are girls, were boys, and y'all got girly things, and

491
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 1: y'all talk about girly things. We don't come around because

492
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: we don't belong there, and you don't come to our thing.

493
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: You know. There's a club in town called Locanvar or Lockinvar,

494
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 1: however you want to say it. I don't really care,

495
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: but based on the what is it, sir? It's great

496
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,439
Speaker 1: Scottish Ivanhoe who wrote Ivanhoe? Anyway, it's a men's club,

497
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: not a gentleman's club. Funny whoever came up with calling

498
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: titty bars gentlemen's clubs. I got to buy that guy

499
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: drink because that's a lot of audacity. Every time there's

500
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: a shooting at a gentleman's club and the headline is

501
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: shooting at gentlemen's club, Gosh, they weren't acting like gentlemen

502
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: and the gentleman can't they read? That's a funny term

503
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: right there. That's one of the best euphemisms of all time.

504
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: I've never been and I'm not going back. So this club,

505
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: which is a golf club, high end golf club, very

506
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,159
Speaker 1: expensive to get in, I'm not a member. That's not me.

507
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: I'm not a joiner, I'm a loner in that sense.

508
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: This club was always men only. Women were not out

509
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: on the grounds. If your wife or mistress dropped you off,

510
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: they would let him come up the driveway only so

511
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: far and drop you off, and then they had to leave.

512
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 1: And there were always women who were mad about that.

513
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,120
Speaker 1: Why are you mad if you're not wanted somewhere? Why

514
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: do you want to be there? That doesn't make any sense,

515
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. To you the reason for it,

516
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: because women don't. Nobody likes, but women don't like when

517
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: men are having fun without them, because women are built

518
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: different than we are. Women are built to need our

519
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: attention and affection, but mostly our attention, and when women

520
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: aren't getting our attention, they get jealous. We're programmed this way,

521
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: We're built this way, and when women aren't getting our attention,

522
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: they worry. He damn well better not be having fun

523
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: without me. There. We're not talking about having an affair.

524
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: We're talking about he's laughing. There's no drama, there's no fight,

525
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: there's no you know, everything elevated into an argument, there's

526
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: no whatever else. Women don't like that. So I always

527
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: tell my friends. They're like, how are you so happily

528
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: married for thirty six years. My wife lets me have

529
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: my guy time. She didn't ask questions. She doesn't feel jealous.

530
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: If I say I'm gonna have buddies over to play pokers,

531
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: she didn't go, we can, I can I join? Because

532
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: she knows, No, that's not for girls. If you want

533
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: to do girls majar or whatever, y'all do, do your thing.

534
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: I celebrate that. I don't want my girl to be

535
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: a dude. I don't want the girl hanging out with

536
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: the dude all the time. You need some dude time, ramon.

537
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: Have we had that conversation? We need some dude time.

538
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,719
Speaker 1: And women that don't understand that whatever. So programming an

539
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: event is a very special thing, and people don't know that.

540
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: When bars fail, they fail because they don't have a concept.

541
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: Over the years, I've said to Russell, hey, why don't

542
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: you do this? Why don't you serve breakfast? We're not

543
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: a breakfast place? You it to why because I want

544
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: breakfast right now? Okay, but it's not good for us.

545
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,959
Speaker 1: If we serve breakfast, it woul stretch us. Then if

546
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: we serve breakfast, it would be a money loser. If

547
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: we serve breakfast. People come for breakfast and not lunch. Well,

548
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: guess what he has thought about what he is and

549
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: what he is not. Restaurants, bars, clubs, all sorts of

550
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: things fail because they don't think about what they are

551
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: and what they're not. And if you can't define what

552
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,479
Speaker 1: you are and what you're not, then you are nothing.

553
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: And you can't just do more things or giveaways or

554
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,479
Speaker 1: add this or do that and be successful. You have

555
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: to decide, this is who we are for these people,

556
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: and we're not that for those people, and you have

557
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: to get very comfortable with that, and sometimes that those

558
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: people don't like that, and sometimes do these people want

559
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: you to be something for that, because they sometimes go

560
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: for that, And you got to get real comfortable. You

561
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: got to decide who you are in life and in

562
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: every aspect of you, like who are you? What are you?

563
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: What do you stand for? What do you not stand for?

564
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: And then you've got to recognize, oh that's something I

565
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: don't stand for it. I'm not a teddy bar guy,

566
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: I'm not a drug user guy, I'm not a That's

567
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: not who I am. And if you can't do that,
