It's Houston Business Journal 50 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: has a headline Houston Spack DeLay's merger. I thought, oh, 51 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: a spack. I'm when I heard that word in a while. 52 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: You remember the Spack, the special purpose acquisition company that 53 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: never existed, and then all of a sudden, well in 54 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: that form, and then all of a sudden everything everybody 55 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: was doing us back everywhere billions of dawn, and then 56 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you never heard of this back again. 57 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: It's the first time I've heard of a back in 58 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,399 Speaker 1: probably two years in a headline, maybe three years since 59 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: I've seen that in a headline. A maze see thousand hurt. 60 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: You are on the Michael Berry Show. 61 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: Go ahead, sweetheart, good morning. 62 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 3: I have to thank you and your show for your 63 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 3: wonderful presentation of keeping us so well informed. 64 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 4: Uh No. 65 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 3: I called because there was an article in the Reader's Digest. 66 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 3: I think maybe it was even last year's digest, but 67 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 3: at any rate, it said that daylight savings time is 68 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 3: very harmful to human beings. You know, God created our 69 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: world wondrously. 70 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: And. 71 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 3: He gave us daylight and darkness, and we sleep and 72 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: rest at any rate. I wish they would leave it alone, 73 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 3: just let us go back to normal suntime and meantime too. 74 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 3: But anyway, it just isn't good for us. 75 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 6: You know. 76 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: I was reading a couple of days ago. I guess 77 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: it was Arizona that went off the changing of the time, 78 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: And from what I've read, I don't know what you think, 79 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: but from what I've read, the more destructive thing is 80 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: to change the time than what the time is. Apparently 81 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: our biorhythms adjust to whatever we call the time consistently. 82 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,239 Speaker 2: It is the losing. 83 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: Of the time by the hour that causes all the problems, 84 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: And apparently there's data to back that up, and there's 85 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: pretty consistent data over a large data set, over a 86 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: long period of time that suggests you have more heart 87 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: attacks and strokes and these sorts of episodes as a 88 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: result of it. I never cared about it when I 89 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: was younger. The older I get, and the more that 90 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: people complain about it, I realize that this is something 91 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: that seemingly nobody wants, and yet we can't get rid 92 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: of it. 93 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 3: And our governor put us on daylight saving time from 94 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 3: now on, and I don't know how we go about 95 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: do we save any letters, or what do we do 96 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 3: to make a protest about that? 97 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: Well, anything that a governor does can be changed, I 98 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: will be honest. 99 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: I haven't followed I haven't followed it closely, but I 100 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: did travel quite a bit over. 101 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: The last month, and I do find it fascinating. This 102 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: is kind of unrelated to what you're saying, but I 103 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: do find it fascinating that it can be three o'clock 104 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: in La four o'clock in Denver, or four o'clock in Denver, 105 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: five o'clock in Houston, and six o'clock in California, all 106 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 1: at the same time. Now, I realized that's not the 107 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: most advanced thought I do. But I'm still amazed at 108 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: a number of very simple things that were invented that make. 109 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: Our lives so much better w D forty DUC tape. 110 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: I mean, very simple things that make our lives so 111 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: dramatically better. Little things and so inventions and things like that. 112 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: I'm a I'm not a creative sort in that way. 113 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: I enjoy the world around me. I am a student 114 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: of history. I am not the predictor of things, and 115 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: I am not an inventor of things. I'm not a 116 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: person who would have who would have ever done that. 117 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: I just wouldn't. 118 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: Have you seen this Coldplay concert story. It's kind of 119 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: a pop culture news story, and I'm not usually up 120 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: on those, And to put it into perspective, I found 121 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: out about it this morning because Chance McCain mcclan. 122 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: Kept talking about it. 123 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: But he has made a parody on the subject that 124 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: I'll make sure I get to at some point on 125 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: the show today. 126 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: I just watched the video during the last break.

And I 193 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: recognize that freedom means that some people will use that 194 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: freedom to make bad decisions. And I don't worry what 195 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: someone does in their bedroom or a living room that 196 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: may or may not be. 197 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 2: Good for their health. 198 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: And I can't understand how people can profess to love 199 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: freedom and yet want to restrict everything that other people 200 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: do that they themselves do not do, or make it 201 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: illegal because it's naughty when they do it, and that 202 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: makes it extra fun. 203 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: I just I don't grasp that. But what can I 204 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: just me? 205 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: Jay, thanks for the call of Lisa.

Where we're driving, we seem to 218 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 5: hear a much broader a view of music, whether it 219 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 5: be classic rock, ninetiese rock, country, old fashioned, and I 220 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 5: just maybe maybe, uh maybe it's just me and my wife, 221 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 5: Well we think that, but it just seems like we 222 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 5: have we we don't have we.

It was strong. Kalel was not about 252 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: the music. Kalel was about the personalities. And you had Stevenson. 253 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 2: Pruet, you had the radio guards, you had then Walton 254 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 2: and Johnson. 255 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: You had these very strong personalities at a time of 256 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: when classic rock was not classic rock. 257 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 2: Classic rock was rock. 258 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: It didn't need to be classic because we hadn't moved 259 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: past it, and the station was the dominant rock station 260 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: in Houston. So when Journey comes in plays the Summit, 261 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: when you have these major concerts coming through the personalities, 262 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: the artists had the good sense to attach to the 263 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: personalities and vice versa, and you had personality. And to 264 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: this day, almost every one of those people still involved 265 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: in k LOEL is in some way doing an Internet state. 266 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Jim Brut was doing it till he died, 267 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: and Mark Stevens probably would have been as well. Out 268 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: Law Dave is still around. I mean, it's still my 269 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: buddy that there are still those personalities had such a connection. 270 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: But the documentary makes clear that for all the talk 271 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: about the station being flipped to what it was flipped to, 272 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: which was Mega one oh one, which was a kind 273 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: of a tropical Latino Daddy playing Daddy Yankee and those 274 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: sorts of stuff, those sorts of things, the reality is 275 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: the business had changed and it didn't have the cult following, 276 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: and people had moved on. You know, I went back 277 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: and watched Beavis and butt Heead recently and I couldn't wait. 278 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: I sat down, and you know, I'm not a stoner. 279 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: I never was a stoner, So I didn't watch Beavis 280 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: and Butt heead under the influence of marijuana, like I 281 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: understand a lot of people did. I just thought it 282 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 1: was funny. I sat down to watch it. It wasn't funny. 283 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: So I think I grew. I think we changed, and 284 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: I think our likes and dislikes changed. The radio business, 285 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: like everything else, is a business in big cities. The 286 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: reason you get the songs on repeat, especially on a 287 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: top forty station or a lot of the rock stations, 288 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: is those are tested, and just like everything else, you 289 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: get that's tested. That's what the mass of people want. 290 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: And what you find is increasingly you don't want what 291 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: the masses want, but the numbers the business are in 292 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: the sweet spot of the masses. It's why you may 293 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: not eat at the fast food chain or Chili's or 294 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 1: whatever else. I'll talk about this later again in the 295 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: show that there is. It's along and interesting discussion. Do you, 296 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: immu a classic car guy, what one classic car would 297 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: you want to own? 298 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 2: Corvette?

And I know 301 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: those words should not go together. But they do for me. 302 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: And I love those fifty six Corvettes with that swow shut. 303 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: There's there's a term for that. I had a friend, 304 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: Craig Hobbs. I talked about him earlier in the week. 305 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 1: His dad, Kirk Hobbs, owned a company called Mesa Construction, 306 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: and he had an eighty three Stingray and he pulled 307 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: up to pick up Crag in middle school, so eighty 308 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: three we were thirteen, so we would have been actually yeah, 309 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: we would have been in sixth or seventh grade. And 310 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: it had the metallic color, which you know, we weren't 311 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: used to at that point. It was a it's like 312 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: a grape color, but it was a metallic so it's 313 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: like the starry Skies. Would never see anything like that 314 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 1: in Orangefield. And when he pulled up and I remember 315 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 1: that front we will cover feeling like it was just 316 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: like the old Dusenbergs. 317 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 2: Just felt like it just went on forever.
