Speaker 1: Welcome to another hour, on another day, another week of
Speaker 1: the Rick Burgess Show.
Speaker 2: I'd be Rick and over.
Speaker 1: Here speedy, Greg Adler, all in for another week, and
Speaker 1: we are thankful that you are with us active weekend.
Speaker 2: We'll recap it all here today.
Speaker 1: Obviously, as far as headlines, the bombing of Iran over
Speaker 1: the weekend is your big story in the aftermath of that.
Speaker 1: We'll break that down today. Everyone's favorite Persian David Nasser.
Speaker 1: He's been in high demand anytime there, which means all
Speaker 1: the time when there is unrest in Iran, people are
Speaker 1: always looking for David Nasser. And I knew over the
Speaker 1: weekend that he would be in very high demand on
Speaker 1: every podcasting show you could possibly name today, and David
Speaker 1: is kind enough to give us a couple of segments
Speaker 1: a little bit later on, and we will hear from
Speaker 1: someone who knows first hand what it's like to live
Speaker 1: under of the various tyrannical regimes in the Iranian history,
Speaker 1: his family escaping one of those regimes and coming to America.
Speaker 1: His testimony has moved many and he's been on the
Speaker 1: Rick and Bubba show many times, and we'll be with
Speaker 1: us again today, so we will talk with Naser and
Speaker 1: have his very unique perspective of all things involving Iran.
Speaker 1: And if you look back over history. We've been dealing
Speaker 1: with Iran for a very long time and we are
Speaker 1: doing it again. So we'll get into that. It was
Speaker 1: a very successful military attack. It was precision, it was beautiful,
Speaker 1: it was I think send a message to the rest
Speaker 1: of the world. It feels good to I think this
Speaker 1: was also something that we've been needing to do for
Speaker 1: a very long time and send a message to Iran
Speaker 1: and to our enemies into the world that we are
Speaker 1: are blessed and capable of doing things that no other
Speaker 1: nation can pull off. So so that that is that's good. Now,
Speaker 1: there's all kinds of political posturing, which this was talked
Speaker 1: about over the weekend, just with even family. There was
Speaker 1: a time that we could drop politics and all come
Speaker 1: together against common enemies.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately that time is over.
Speaker 1: Sadly that this making a case against this is just bizarre.
Speaker 1: You're really you're really on shaky ground. You almost just
Speaker 1: have to say, well, I just I'm gonna throw a
Speaker 1: tantrum because I don't like this political party, I don't
Speaker 1: like this president. So there's nothing they can do that
Speaker 1: I can ever compliment or say, yeah, that was the
Speaker 1: right thing to do. But that's all right, and leadership
Speaker 1: always requires that, even when you have people throwing tantrums
Speaker 1: on the floor and jumping up and down and you
Speaker 1: know what they're going to say about you, You you're
Speaker 1: bold enough to make the right decision, regardless of you know,
Speaker 1: your any attempt to appease those that you're never going
Speaker 1: to appease anyway.
Speaker 2: You know, you just have to do what's right, and
Speaker 2: then whatever happens happened.
Speaker 1: So so we'll we'll unpack that today a little bit.
Speaker 1: We won't spend the entire show on that, but we
Speaker 1: we will get uh, well, we'll kind of hit on
Speaker 1: it a little bit. We'll go to other things and
Speaker 1: we'll come back later in the show when David Nash's
Speaker 1: with us, And of course he's going to be speaking
Speaker 1: to it from a unique point of view and certainly
Speaker 1: not from politics, but from more of a spiritual component.
Speaker 2: But there's there's a lot of depth to it.
Speaker 1: I've seen some of the things he's already said that
Speaker 1: he's put out on his social media, So I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to that conversation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the same people that are criticizing, uh, the administration
Speaker 4: about the aftermath and the and and the fears of
Speaker 4: Iran retaliating and all this kind of stuff. We're not
Speaker 4: concerned about them having nuclear capabilities. It's kind of funny.
Speaker 4: It's like the same people you're worried about, if they
Speaker 4: had nuclear capabilities, they would use it. Uh so, but yeah,
Speaker 4: it'll be interesting to hear from from NASA. And I
Speaker 4: don't know where you guys were, Rick, I know where
Speaker 4: we actually, I know you were over in Pearl Uh
Speaker 4: And uh when when when I got notification on my
Speaker 4: phone Trump to address the nation at at you know,
Speaker 4: nine pm Central or whatever.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, huh, that's weird.
Speaker 4: I'm like, hey, hon, Trump's gonna, you know, address the
Speaker 4: nation the next we are successfully.
Speaker 2: I'm like, wow, so it's already happened.
Speaker 4: Never mind, good gracious it was, you know, him coming
Speaker 4: on to let everybody know that it that it happened
Speaker 4: was up.
Speaker 2: Now. I see my pen over there where I got
Speaker 2: that pen from right in front? You have this right there?
Speaker 2: This one, No, that blue one's wine that blue not. Yes,
Speaker 2: it is over here.
Speaker 5: We have we can buy more pins.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, here's.
Speaker 5: About There's enough fighting going on in the world right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you. Yeah, okay, I.
Speaker 1: Just keep your pen out from over here. Then okay,
Speaker 1: it was laying right there. I was probably over doing
Speaker 1: something important with him over you are get it. My
Speaker 1: pen was gone sitting in front of you. That's all
Speaker 1: I can say.
Speaker 6: All right, where's the label maker? We're going to label
Speaker 6: everybody's pens. Okay, one's going to say rick on it,
Speaker 6: and one's going to say Greg.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's all come together, Greg against one common enemy.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: But I was you're talking about where you were, So
Speaker 1: I was in Pearl, Mississippi, and I definitely want to
Speaker 1: think those wonderful people.
Speaker 2: And I mean, the the.
Speaker 1: Service is over, the gripping grin is over talking with
Speaker 1: people and all that, and I mean I'm literally grabbing
Speaker 1: up what I need to take back with me. And
Speaker 1: one of the guys who had left came back in
Speaker 1: the door. I said, Hey, just so y'all know we're
Speaker 1: bombing Iran right now. And I said, okay, great, so
Speaker 1: it's on and uh and.
Speaker 2: That was like a and you know one thing I noticed,
Speaker 2: it's sad. It really is sad that's come to this
Speaker 2: in terrestrial radio. Now.
Speaker 1: When I say terrestrial radio, I'm talking about I turn
Speaker 1: on radio station and I listened to whatever is on there. Okay,
Speaker 1: this isn't streaming, this isn't podcast archives, this isn't YouTube,
Speaker 1: this isn't satellite. This is what we all grew up on.
Speaker 1: And it was weekend. Okay, if you didn't have satellite
Speaker 1: or you didn't have some way to access something that
Speaker 1: was live. I could not find one radio station that
Speaker 1: was doing breaking news, not one. Every one of them
Speaker 1: were playing outdated, old things. They had no update, they
Speaker 1: had no here's our newsroom. Here, we're now joining this live.
Speaker 1: Not one radio station. And I scanned all the way home,
Speaker 1: not one. That's a sad state, it is. There was
Speaker 1: a time when, of course, you have to as you say, Greg,
Speaker 1: you'd have to have a news staff to do that.
Speaker 1: Are someone who could join the network news, you know,
Speaker 1: via satellite. They have to actually be in a studio
Speaker 1: to do that. But I did not have any any
Speaker 1: coverage of it at all in that pitiful So that
Speaker 1: was any kind of made me sad.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that is sad because that's kind of because.
Speaker 1: Of course, then I go to the place you can
Speaker 1: always trust, you start trying to search social media and
Speaker 1: all that trustle Oh god, let me tell you everything
Speaker 1: you like, before you know it, somebod will show you
Speaker 1: footage right now, I'm watching what's happening.
Speaker 2: And then you look around the headlines. Nobody's reporting that.
Speaker 2: Somebody just made that up? Yeah exactly, Like here's the
Speaker 2: Bee fifty two? Is that win? And then you start
Speaker 2: reading comments, No, that's a I.
Speaker 7: Like what that.
Speaker 1: Here's people right now burning something down. You look, nobody's
Speaker 1: burning it down.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, here's the explosion of whatever. And then you
Speaker 4: see now that was in twenty and eleven.
Speaker 5: Or you're like, good night and here and we bombed Iraq?
Speaker 5: Right yeah, yeah, I heard we bombed Iraq.
Speaker 1: Good gracious, We'll be back. More of the Rick Birdes
Speaker 1: Show coming up. Okay, look y'all heard me talking show.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are talking about it. Have become
Speaker 1: kind of a kind of a handyman, and probably the
Speaker 1: reason that Brunt has reached out to say, Rick, tell
Speaker 1: your fellow hard working men about our durable work boot

Speaker 1: a tough day, pull your boots off, you know, and

Speaker 1: yet they're work boots. There's no breaking period, there's no blisters.

Speaker 2: he really loves his patches. He loves his uh led.
Speaker 2: He's waiting on sled Day. I don't know when it is. Well,
Speaker 2: we'll find out. I'm sure that's an easy google. I
Speaker 2: don't I don't understand. Not a lot of sled use
Speaker 2: in Alabama and Georgia. You know, this is part of
Speaker 2: the catch. If you bring up sleds in South.
Speaker 1: Georgia and where we live in Alabama, no one even
Speaker 1: wants to talk about it.
Speaker 2: Nobody owns slid talk.
Speaker 6: Have you noticed that there's that hardware stores will keep
Speaker 6: sleds year round and you're like, I'm not going to
Speaker 6: buy one of those because they're like, you know, one
Speaker 6: hundred bucks for a plastic shell. But then then we
Speaker 6: get that snow day, and then that guy that runs
Speaker 6: that hardware store all of a sudden very excited because you.
Speaker 2: Talk about after he's lost all the money on having
Speaker 2: it in inventory.
Speaker 5: Right right, they put it like put it like out
Speaker 5: of reach and everything.
Speaker 6: But the local hardware store I remember, would always sell
Speaker 6: out of the of sleds on on the rare snow
Speaker 6: days that we would get in Birmingham.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, we never we never even remotely thought
Speaker 1: slid even on snow days. We slid on things that
Speaker 1: were just around.
Speaker 2: The house and trash back when you had met Yeah,
Speaker 2: trash fan had pans, we did. We never thought we
Speaker 2: would commit to a slid.
Speaker 5: Recycling bins work really.
Speaker 2: Well, right, not not in Alabama. Did I ever commit
Speaker 2: to a snell. We made, We made stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember one time you remember the big hill
Speaker 1: where the high school used to be before they of course.
Speaker 2: Away with it.
Speaker 1: Snow day and somebody had you know them old refrigerators
Speaker 1: that were kind of curvy. Yeah, they had refrigerator door
Speaker 1: in it looked like a Bob sled.
Speaker 2: Yes, and they would file in it and come and
Speaker 2: find Yeah, we were let's say that's smart. We were
Speaker 2: no sled though.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't know that we ever had enough snow for
Speaker 1: a sled to work. It needs a certain amount of snow.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I was having to drag my kids through our last
Speaker 6: snow day on those on the trash can lid.
Speaker 5: They needed some help even down the hills, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the little southern kids don't know what to do.
Speaker 5: I mean, and you so hope that the kids are
Speaker 5: gonna have fun, but then they get cold. Yeah, and
Speaker 5: they till they get mad. Yes, they get they get
Speaker 5: so wet. They don't know how to handle the snows.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're you're gonna doubt my memory on this, but
Speaker 1: I can remember. And we were little, because we still
Speaker 1: living in Birmingham. Was kids, real little, And the same
Speaker 1: thing happened. Mom dressed us all up, remember that got
Speaker 1: us out in the snow, and Greg got mad about
Speaker 1: it in about ten minutes, Yes, and went back to
Speaker 1: got too cold, his hands got wet or something.
Speaker 2: He went back to you and Mom had spent so
Speaker 2: much time bundling, so up to an hour to get
Speaker 2: outside like Ralphie's brother.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm not mistaken. That's when I dressed. I think
Speaker 1: I called myself smoke you bear, Smoke you bear, because
Speaker 1: you have smoking bear had I had the full thing
Speaker 1: around my face and brown.
Speaker 2: Good time. I've been a minute. So there we go.
Speaker 2: We're gonna see some sledge too, buddy. Yeah, it's real
Speaker 2: and encouragement and the fun that that we're having. And
Speaker 2: thank you so much for that.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, one of the ongoing themes that everywhere
Speaker 1: we go, by the way, those of you who and
Speaker 1: you continue this, uh, it actually took place on Saturday
Speaker 1: night in Pearl, Mississippi, this thing that keeps coming up
Speaker 1: involving our mom. Greg Man, I'm telling you, I just
Speaker 1: I mean, y'all got to get your mom on the show.
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, yes, guys, guys.
Speaker 2: So yesterday after.
Speaker 1: Church, not making this up Adler speed, no embellishment whatsoever
Speaker 1: now zero. So Sherry had already said, hey, after church,
Speaker 1: when we go by and see you mom, and I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: sounds good. Let's go visit mom. It sounds great, And
Speaker 1: so we go through church and of course I'd already
Speaker 1: had to come through, had to work to a little something,
Speaker 1: got scolded, a little bit, got scolded. Everybody called it
Speaker 1: on me too. I look, I didn't mean anything by it.
Speaker 1: It's just, you know, I'm just a good one. You know,
Speaker 1: this has been very right.
Speaker 2: Let's go to.
Speaker 1: Let's go somewhere in the late eighties, somewhere in the
Speaker 1: late eighties, early to mid nineties. If you if you
Speaker 1: and I speaking of strange encounters, if you and I
Speaker 1: had been, like say, hanging out, and suddenly an angel
Speaker 1: came and walked up to you and me and said, hey, Greg,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna believe this.
Speaker 2: One day, your brother's going to be a deacon at
Speaker 2: the local church. What would you have said? Probably not.
Speaker 3: Angel.
Speaker 1: I know you know everything you got us mistaken for
Speaker 1: someone else, right, you know, I know angels. I guess
Speaker 1: y'all don't make mistakes. But I think you have to
Speaker 1: the wrong people trying to give you credit, right, So,
Speaker 1: and so that's uh, you know, it's a it's you
Speaker 1: know me is that's it's an interesting thing. And so
Speaker 1: one of the things that you know, I've been working
Speaker 1: on is successfully hanging out the Lord's Supper without spilling it,
Speaker 1: without confusing the isles. But there's also one thing which
Speaker 1: our grandmother in heaven would demand every week. But you know,
Speaker 1: it's become more well easily acceptable now for people to
Speaker 1: dress what our grandmother would have determined casual for church.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's not uncommon even in the most
Speaker 1: conservative churches. Now most you'll see a lot of people
Speaker 1: that dress casual. And and I and I'm one of
Speaker 1: those people too. When I say casual, I still wear
Speaker 1: some sort of you know, either dress.
Speaker 2: Pants or you know some you know, I might go
Speaker 2: with some new genes and if it's like cold, I
Speaker 2: can't wear them in the heat.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 1: And you know you got your your polo on, your whatever.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't come in here with a T
Speaker 1: shirt on or anything like that. Not that a collared shirt,
Speaker 1: your collar shirt.
Speaker 2: But tank top.
Speaker 1: But even though the church that I attend is fine
Speaker 1: with that, on the day of you handing out.
Speaker 2: The Lord's Supper, you're supposed to wear a jacket. Okay, yeah, and.
Speaker 1: As a deacon, not that ment the church, just as
Speaker 1: a dec and so I have neglected to do that
Speaker 1: the last couple of times. Not because I'm being defiant.
Speaker 1: I'm just I just forget. And I get to church
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, I got to do the Lord's
Speaker 1: Supper today. No matter how many emails they sent me,
Speaker 1: no matter how many texts, it's not on me.
Speaker 2: It's not on them. I mean, it's on me.
Speaker 1: They give me plenty of reminders, plenty. I just you know, speedy,
Speaker 1: that's not surprising to you all. So this this, uh,
Speaker 1: this this particular week, the head of the deacons put
Speaker 1: in there and everybody agreed it was directed at me,
Speaker 1: and they are correct.
Speaker 2: I don't deny that. Do not forget to wear your jacket, Rick,
Speaker 2: And they didn't say my name, but I know it
Speaker 2: was directed at me. Okay.
Speaker 1: So anyway, so I wore jacket Sunday and and and
Speaker 1: I'm pretty successful on getting the elements out and all this.
Speaker 1: Even got a text from the worship leader thank you
Speaker 1: for the jacket. May give me a little bit of
Speaker 1: a hard time, And I said, uh, just have a
Speaker 1: servant's heart, or in this case, a servant's suit.
Speaker 2: So anyway, so we're going by.
Speaker 1: After we got through all that, walk walk into mom's
Speaker 1: little cottage where she lives in her little community, and
Speaker 1: I walk in and Mom looks up and she goes, okay,
Speaker 1: well I have to let you go okay, And I
Speaker 1: said who was that?
Speaker 2: She was Greg?
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I said, well on a Sunday. She goes, oh,
Speaker 1: Greg calls me every day, and look when she this
Speaker 1: is the face Greg cast me every day and puts
Speaker 1: your phone down. And I said, I said, Mom, can
Speaker 1: I just take this thing on? What Greg calling you
Speaker 1: every day? You can't count Monday through Friday. I'm impressed
Speaker 1: with Saturday Sunday. I'll even. But I said, look Greg's doing.
Speaker 1: I said, you remember how Dad started acting when he
Speaker 1: had grandkids. She said yeah. I said he kind of
Speaker 1: turned into an old man trying to get into heaven. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and she said, I said this is Greg.
Speaker 2: I need all the helping. Greg's trying to amend for
Speaker 2: how bad he was.
Speaker 5: Oh that right?
Speaker 2: And I said all the headaches he gave you and
Speaker 2: all the problems he gave you. I said, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't feel an obligation because I was
Speaker 1: a good kid, right, And I said, you know it's
Speaker 1: a little boy.
Speaker 2: Was no trouble. I wasn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't cause the trouble that Greg calls. I said,
Speaker 1: I said, this is Greg knowing that he's lived longer
Speaker 1: than he has left to live.
Speaker 2: And I said, and he is. He's trying to make
Speaker 2: amends and he's grabbing for straws.
Speaker 6: And because of Rick, because of Greg's commute, those the
Speaker 6: weekday calls don't.
Speaker 2: Count, that's what you're saying.
Speaker 5: Really, so he really just calls his mom twice a week.
Speaker 2: Correct, Rick's incorrect there, But okay.
Speaker 5: Now how long are these calls?
Speaker 2: Greg's got an hour? Twenty?
Speaker 1: Now, I will say this, if you have thirty minutes,
Speaker 1: if you don't have aging parents yet, you know there
Speaker 1: are no short phone calls anymore. There are.
Speaker 5: Thirty minutes is a long time. And if I got
Speaker 5: to give you that, if you.
Speaker 1: If you make the mistake of saying to your agents,
Speaker 1: so how are things going, then go ahead.
Speaker 5: That's a hard thirty that you even if you've heard it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and you're done talking, by the way, it's
Speaker 2: it's monologue.
Speaker 5: Now, okay, Rick, I'll say all this is wise.
Speaker 4: Remember we went over Greg and I went over to Rainbow,
Speaker 4: Omega to their campus, and you know that's probably what
Speaker 4: thirty five minutes from where we were sitting like that.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: And we were getting really close to the exit, like
Speaker 4: literally an exit away. And I called Greg and he said,
Speaker 4: oh man, I'm sorry. I was talking to mom.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and I'm.
Speaker 4: Thinking you've been on the phone this entire time. He goes,
Speaker 4: oh yeah, so I know that was thirty minute calls.
Speaker 2: I mean they're not at all thirty minutes, but at
Speaker 2: least I will tell you this. I stayed. I stayed
Speaker 2: yesterday an extra hour to try to combat it. Look, okay,
Speaker 2: I was, I will leave you in the car and jacket. Yes,
Speaker 2: I did, because it was blazing out. It was a
Speaker 2: thousand degrees even tuning. Somebody help me, I said, Oh,
Speaker 2: I said, okay, so this is how bread feels. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: somebody there.
Speaker 6: Went to my grandma's house yesterday with the kids. I
Speaker 6: didn't realize this, but when I got in the room,
Speaker 6: my mom actually turned down the thermostat and I was
Speaker 6: still roasting.
Speaker 5: Oh yes, she turned it down to seventy five. That
Speaker 5: was notorably down. And my grandma was wearing like a
Speaker 5: down vest on. My grandma. It's an oven in here.
Speaker 2: We are, rolls, Larry. It can't be hot. It can't
Speaker 2: just about seventy eight, Can I tell you something weird?
Speaker 1: And I'm trying to look at the transition because this weekend,
Speaker 1: Lord willing you know, unless you know it gets too dangerous.
Speaker 1: We're supposed to go see my oldest son, a second
Speaker 1: oldest child and his wife and they live. They live
Speaker 1: in New York City, So Sherry and I are going
Speaker 1: to see them for the weekend, and we're kind of
Speaker 1: we're excited about that. But I was looking at the
Speaker 1: forecast in the city and it's going to be one
Speaker 1: hundred and one Wednesday, seventy eight eight on Friday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was what was interesting that you said, what
Speaker 2: is that you get through Wednesday?
Speaker 4: I was caught a I guess a weather forecast segment
Speaker 4: and they were talking about it. There's about a five
Speaker 4: or six day stretch where it's gonna be hot, but
Speaker 4: then there's gonna it's gonna.
Speaker 2: Cool off again.
Speaker 4: But let me ask you, are we getting into that?
Speaker 4: Please understand when I say cool, are we getting into that?
Speaker 2: Cool? Down?
Speaker 11: Here?
Speaker 2: Is that strictly in northwest? Let me let me do
Speaker 2: this too. I'm tired of this.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, hey people, it's it's summer and it gets hot.
Speaker 1: It's nothing new. We got weather advisories, we got it's
Speaker 1: always hot in June July.
Speaker 2: What are we talking about? I don't know what is
Speaker 2: the deal. We got to have an advisory for I
Speaker 2: thought the storm's coming, Thank you. No, I know it's hot.
Speaker 2: If you get too hot, go back in the house.
Speaker 10: Can I it's not.
Speaker 2: I mean we're supposed to got what do you what
Speaker 2: do you do?
Speaker 4: It's going in the nineties to the eighties here, Okay?
Speaker 4: Can I can I tell you that you know what
Speaker 4: this is about, Greg?
Speaker 1: You know this about weather people, weather people, whether they'll
Speaker 1: get hot, whether they will admit it or not. And
Speaker 1: I've heard some of them, some of have admitted to
Speaker 1: me privately it's clickbait. I'm not gonna click on it
Speaker 1: if you don't tell me something scary. If you just
Speaker 1: tell me it's normal summer.
Speaker 2: It's always hot in the summer in Alabama. The year
Speaker 2: was nineteen eighty three. Come on, the year was nineteen
Speaker 2: eighty three, and it's the end of June's forty two
Speaker 2: years ago. Okay, forty two years ago.
Speaker 1: No one gave me a heat advisory when I was
Speaker 1: doing two a days at Troy and it was a
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten degrees okay, the heat index.
Speaker 2: We had someone die.
Speaker 1: At practice over at Auburn, which is not far from
Speaker 1: where we were, and we had someone dying.
Speaker 2: On the field where I was not one heat advisory.
Speaker 1: And if you'll remember, and I think I think we
Speaker 1: still do it today, that's where the heat time out
Speaker 1: came from. My senior year in high school. Robab was
Speaker 1: the first year, because it was that year ye're talking
Speaker 1: about that they come up with the little heat time out. No,
Speaker 1: you're right, because your your senior year was the fall
Speaker 1: of eighty three. Yeah, yeah, right, and that see we
Speaker 1: just come out of the summer of eighty three.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But hey, guys, I got bad news for you all.
Speaker 2: It's June. It's gonna be hot for a while. It's
Speaker 2: just gonna be hot. I don't need to be advised
Speaker 2: of it now. Damn.
Speaker 5: Is it gonna be humid too? It's yes? And a
Speaker 5: deep South?
Speaker 10: Is that what you're saying the Rick Burdger's Show.
Speaker 2: All right, So a lot of us have been we
Speaker 2: we've been sold on.
Speaker 1: Hey, here's how you do your retirement four oh one k,
Speaker 1: all of these things. But you being lied to wall
Speaker 1: Street insists the only way to have enough money to
Speaker 1: retire is to put your life savings in one of
Speaker 1: these things that just isn't right, or maybe an IRA.
Speaker 2: A and you know, roll the dice, you know, Wall
Speaker 2: Street casino.
Speaker 1: But but if if that were true, why do the
Speaker 1: studies show the averaging American, the average American following that
Speaker 1: advice is going to outlive their savings by staggering ten years.
Speaker 1: And even the man who invented the four O one
Speaker 1: K you know this says it's a monster that should
Speaker 1: be destroyed. So are you being lied to max out
Speaker 1: your IRA, max out your four oh one K, and
Speaker 1: then they make you beg permission to use your own money?

Speaker 1: He has a very unique perspective coming up a little
Speaker 1: bit later on, so we'll talk about that. We've we
Speaker 1: mentioned the bombing over the weekend. We can get into
Speaker 1: that a little more too. Also reminds you that it
Speaker 1: is Larry Quest week. Speedy will go to Larry and
Speaker 1: Carolyn's home Dublin, Georgia coming up this Wednesday, and he'll
Speaker 1: be live from that from Patch Paradise coming up on
Speaker 1: Thursday's program.
Speaker 2: That's real, buddy, yes, so real.
Speaker 6: So just for anybody that's not familiar with what's going on,
Speaker 6: Speedy is going to a random listener's house that collects patches, right,
Speaker 6: and that's how we met them. They called us asking
Speaker 6: if we have any patches to send them and they're
Speaker 6: also also they're not murderers.
Speaker 2: That's no, and he was he let me know that again.
Speaker 2: Well that's important. That was what MdeR That was what
Speaker 2: a murderer really tell you. They rarely do. They rarely
Speaker 2: know something do tonight. They don't. They don't wear like
Speaker 2: you know, name tags underneath their name. Murderer.
Speaker 1: Well you got if you hadn't asked me that question.
Speaker 1: But since you did ask us, I actually they had
Speaker 1: to ask you. Just you know, say you're out for
Speaker 1: a jog and some strange person keeps following you. Rarely
Speaker 1: do they admit it. Yeah, Hey, I just like to
Speaker 1: know why I'm jogging.
Speaker 2: Are you a murderer? No, I'm good, keep going, Yeah
Speaker 2: you good morning.
Speaker 1: No, I'm back here, and don't think anything that I
Speaker 1: get closer, we get to where the woods get thicker. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And the reason why this is such a big deal
Speaker 4: is because this is a first for any staff member.
Speaker 4: We go spend the night at some we need to
Speaker 4: make a habit of it. Now that we've never met
Speaker 4: in person. I'm just saying, maybe one and done is
Speaker 4: a first.
Speaker 2: Don't you think starts a new thing?
Speaker 12: Greg?
Speaker 1: Yeah, keep rolling them dies, Greg, what about this? I
Speaker 1: mean maybe they Hey, guys, what's the next thing? Guys
Speaker 1: will let you know. In a couple of weeks, we
Speaker 1: spend the night with somebody else.
Speaker 5: Yes, Speedy buys me. Lunch is the thing we do
Speaker 5: this month.
Speaker 2: Speedy spends the night lunch slash. Speedy sleeps over doing
Speaker 2: a venturation. Hey, go doing advinger ration and then.
Speaker 5: Go home with him inside. It's so good, all.
Speaker 1: Right, be honest, be honest. And somebody s put this
Speaker 1: up on the text line and I looked, it's just terrible. Uh.
Speaker 1: If you were to meet Larry are you to meet
Speaker 1: Ted Bundy? Oh wow, you would probably think, I tell
Speaker 1: I go Ted Monday. I would, I'll have lunch with
Speaker 1: Ed was known for his charisma, Yes he was.
Speaker 2: He'd win you over.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if that didn't work, he'd have a fake
Speaker 1: cast on to hit you over the head with it.
Speaker 1: Not hate, not a bad personality.
Speaker 5: Makes you can tell Joe Rick not just to murder.
Speaker 2: He put him on the head doing things you're like,
Speaker 2: really walking talking, demon possessed man.
Speaker 5: Yes, so that's not wait Speedy's going no.
Speaker 2: No I'm not no, no, no, keeping.
Speaker 1: But he did share something that we do need to say.
Speaker 1: He is going to spend the night at two people's houses.
Speaker 1: He doesn't know, that's just it only met on a voicemail.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had I've had some phone conversations common Yeah. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's great. But you're right.
Speaker 4: They were introduced to us because they called your office
Speaker 4: voicemail to tell you week one their patches collection.
Speaker 2: Week one. We had only been doing this show for
Speaker 2: about a week.
Speaker 1: Yes, when we when we worked from there and wanted
Speaker 1: just to the cat. We had not been on this
Speaker 1: show very long speed at all. Right, And then on
Speaker 1: that footage this is from their house when the news
Speaker 1: did a story on them and cat ran through the shot.
Speaker 2: He's so serious right there, Yeah, I know I did
Speaker 2: see the cat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then now Carolyn says, the cat's gonna be
Speaker 4: on the back screenport right there.
Speaker 2: Look out, look at that sweet couple, Carolyn.
Speaker 5: There's such a there's such a cute, sweet couple. And
Speaker 5: definitely not.
Speaker 4: Of course not of course, not so anyway, So that's there,
Speaker 4: and we won't try to run that in the ground.
Speaker 4: It's just the first so and it's it's National Patch
Speaker 4: Day tomorrow, that on the week that I go over.
Speaker 5: That's that's just it, just that.
Speaker 2: When you saw that, though there's no kind of sign serious.
Speaker 4: But I know and I know y'all wanted to go,
Speaker 4: but uh, there's just no way multiple staff members could
Speaker 4: leave during the week and and pull that off. Now
Speaker 4: I have, I do have friends that are in the
Speaker 4: law enforcement field. Going you clearly need somebody with you.
Speaker 4: But so I'm not worried about the two of them.
Speaker 2: So we're good. We're good, and and.
Speaker 4: I'll let them know when we're leaving and get there
Speaker 4: Wednesday evening and have dinner with them. And I'm sure
Speaker 4: look at patches, and I got some patches to bringing.
Speaker 2: I don't forget those. Do not forget those. I know
Speaker 2: I even thought about putting them in my truck. Do
Speaker 2: y'all do that?
Speaker 4: Like if I have, if I've got to bring something
Speaker 4: or whatever, I'll go while I'm thinking about and put
Speaker 4: it in the truck.
Speaker 2: I need to go put those passes. And then what
Speaker 2: about when you're done with it?
Speaker 1: But it's something you're taking back home and you forget
Speaker 1: you ride around with it for like months, every time
Speaker 1: I go to the back seat, God, let's take that
Speaker 1: to house and the listener will remember this. It was
Speaker 1: a very kind gesture. We had vox Seats give us
Speaker 1: purple worms because of Dad's love of purple, the plastic
Speaker 1: purple worm. And I knew that I would never get
Speaker 1: them to the farm if I didn't keep them in
Speaker 1: my truck. They were in there so long they melted.
Speaker 2: Oh no, purple. It was a big glove of purple.
Speaker 1: But but I did salvage some of them, and I
Speaker 1: did finally get them to the farm last week. But
Speaker 1: if but if I left them in there on my desk,
Speaker 1: they would have never made it. I would have I
Speaker 1: would have walked up to the farm and then went.
Speaker 1: You know, I hate when you get then you forget something,
Speaker 1: you start dogging all stupid. So so anyway, they're not
Speaker 1: going to spike my drink. So and they are going
Speaker 1: to serve speedy roast beef.
Speaker 2: So that's good. Yeah, yeah, and that what you're happening. Yeah,
Speaker 2: bring your own bottled water. Hmmm, take your chance, take
Speaker 2: your chances to get some micro class life. And they're
Speaker 2: drinking glass and you wake up. It's two days later.
Speaker 3: I got.
Speaker 2: What happened. I don't feel quite right. I know what happens.
Speaker 3: The lower back hurt.
Speaker 2: God, I got. They're a sweet couple. The word precious
Speaker 2: they are. The precious is what they are there, a
Speaker 2: sweet little couple. I don't know what that is. We
Speaker 2: had and he knows we're kidding.
Speaker 5: So he knows we're kidding around about him being a murderer.
Speaker 2: You know, have you had anybody maybe from that area,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, to give you a heads up? Ring there?
Speaker 2: What if? And they all just disappear?
Speaker 1: You know, because think about how much we want to
Speaker 1: think about how much we want references, we're not we're
Speaker 1: not even remotely getting references.
Speaker 2: No, Rick no.
Speaker 5: One.
Speaker 2: Guy who stopped by him had to go buy him
Speaker 2: some black and Miles the the guy that when he
Speaker 2: said now his pastor did he send a text to
Speaker 2: text nation? But or is accomplice you? Are you going
Speaker 2: to church with him Wednesday night? I don't know. That's
Speaker 2: a lot mo there's a lot of moving parts here.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I can get there in time.
Speaker 2: The Greg, I know that you were excited about at
Speaker 2: the NBA Final. Sure who was in it?
Speaker 1: Look at you, Rick, that would be Oklahoma City? Uh
Speaker 1: in Indiana? Okay, how about that speedy?
Speaker 6: You like that?
Speaker 2: That's not bad. We share, not bad. Sharing like our
Speaker 2: updates have helped y'all.
Speaker 1: Sherry and I were having dinner last night and I
Speaker 1: noticed over her head where we were that I saw
Speaker 1: them doing the build up. I said, oh, I think
Speaker 1: the NBA Finals are tonight. And I said, I got
Speaker 1: to know right now, share, I want to look at
Speaker 1: you right now. Tell me a team that's in the
Speaker 1: NBA Finals. And she looked at me and she goes
Speaker 1: the Celtics And I said, you know.
Speaker 2: What, that's not bad. That's the team that's the way
Speaker 2: to I said, you sound like you sound like Greg.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I said, no, baby, I said, there's no
Speaker 1: way you get these too, There's no way, no under
Speaker 1: zero circumstance, because you get these right. And she said,
Speaker 1: I said, I'm gonna say them to you. Howbout how
Speaker 1: about Oklahoma City in Indiana? She goaes, I didn't even
Speaker 1: know they had teams. Yeah, And I said I didn't either.
Speaker 1: So so anyway, so there you go. I found myself
Speaker 1: and I guess I'm ojoed Indiana. I guess I was
Speaker 1: kind of of those two. I found myself driving. It
Speaker 1: looks like that they get the thunder blew them out
Speaker 1: in the game. Look, I found myself being pulled toward
Speaker 1: Indiana a little bit because I don't know why. I
Speaker 1: just started kind of thinking about it, and I thought, well,
Speaker 1: where do I have a tie. So you know, Brody's
Speaker 1: in laws, his father in law is from Indiana. Rich
Speaker 1: Wingo is from Indiana. Brody my son pulls for the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 1: So I said, okay, I think i'll go with you.
Speaker 1: You're in, I'll go with Indiana. And of course I'm
Speaker 1: mojoed them and they got the.
Speaker 2: Bad Yeah.
Speaker 1: So there and oh, Tiger fans l m L s
Speaker 1: U baseball fans, they don't play no game good LSU
Speaker 1: in general, their fans are pretty intense. But the m
Speaker 1: L s U Tigers sweep So Carolina. Yeah, and the
Speaker 1: best of three, they swept them to win the College
Speaker 1: World Series. And I think that's their second one and
Speaker 1: three years.
Speaker 2: Go Tigers.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I hated it was a little game two. Uh,
Speaker 4: the final game was a little tainted. And I hated
Speaker 4: it because nothing against L s U. They still want it,
Speaker 4: and probably I just hate when umpires do what they did,
Speaker 4: And I mean they got a little they got a
Speaker 4: little sensitive, and they kicked Coastal's head coach and first
Speaker 4: assistant out of the game in the first inning of
Speaker 4: the College Series Game two. Yeah, apparently the first base
Speaker 4: coach was barking from his coach's box and the homeplate.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he didn't like it. Yeah, he got he
Speaker 2: got tripped, and yes.
Speaker 5: Look at him rawly kicks his leg up in the
Speaker 5: air like whoooo.
Speaker 2: Nobody knows what we're talking about, guys. Is the the umpires?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 4: Whenever they so that happened, and then they looked to
Speaker 4: the dugout and and gave them a warning and the
Speaker 4: coach said, what are you talking about?
Speaker 2: And then he pointed down.
Speaker 4: To the first base box where the base coach was
Speaker 4: hollering because they felt like they had missed some some calls.
Speaker 4: And the head coach stepped out and said, you've missed three.
Speaker 4: In other words, you've missed three calls so far in
Speaker 4: the game. It's only the first inning home played on
Speaker 4: by I said, you're out, which I thought was a
Speaker 4: little quick. And then the umpires come rushing in to
Speaker 4: try to protect the home plate umpire and one of
Speaker 4: them either flopped or tripped on one of the other
Speaker 4: umpires or something fell down and made all dramatic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, were you just hate that that with that happened,
Speaker 1: That's what they were talking about. It looked like he
Speaker 1: really flopped. Looked a little bit.
Speaker 2: Dream you know.
Speaker 1: They become a little bit drama queen ish lately. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I do want to ask you about one thing I forgot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I want to ask y'all, and I want you to
Speaker 1: shoot me straight. We have to be honest with each
Speaker 1: other here if we're going to help each other, right, okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, And unlike Tom Cruise and a few good men,
Speaker 1: I can handle the truth. Okay, do I seem feeble?
Speaker 1: You am I getting more feeble that.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say.
Speaker 2: Do I get around pretty well?
Speaker 6: I think you've get There is a difference, you know,
Speaker 6: sometimes you can struggle to get around but still not
Speaker 6: be feeble.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 13: So I think you do struggle to get around, But
Speaker 13: I don't think you're feeble. I mean, you know that's
Speaker 13: a compliment. Because I actually had lunch with a childhood friend.
Speaker 13: I mean, I'm talking that we've known each other since
Speaker 13: we were tiny. Okay, it's not like I mean, And
Speaker 13: he and I both agreed we're about the same age.
Speaker 13: I'm a little bit older than him by a couple
Speaker 13: of months. And we sat down for lunch.
Speaker 2: We get we see each other maybe once or twice
Speaker 2: a year, okay, okay, and we'll try to catch up.
Speaker 1: And so we were doing full blown we're here for
Speaker 1: the long haul. I don't have to be anywhere, You
Speaker 1: don't have to be anywhere. We're talking to or done.
Speaker 1: And the first thing that we addressed, because he said,
Speaker 1: and I agree, he said, you realize that up to sixty,
Speaker 1: I think we're able to make a case that we're
Speaker 1: not getting older. He goes, there's no there's no painting sixty.
Speaker 1: He goes, I mean, if you're sixty, you're an older man, Okay,
Speaker 1: And we both had to just deal with that, and
Speaker 1: we just sat there a minute.
Speaker 2: We just resonated.
Speaker 1: We pictured ourselves when we were young people who said
Speaker 1: they were sixty and how it felt.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But anyway, so this happened, and I wasn't going to
Speaker 1: bring it up because I think that it was all
Speaker 1: coming from a good place.
Speaker 2: But it started kind of get in my head a
Speaker 2: little bit.
Speaker 1: So anytime you go somewhere you know, and you're greeted
Speaker 1: by the host of the event, it's always a great
Speaker 1: thing to get to know them.
Speaker 2: And we talked.
Speaker 1: So I'm walking in with the senior pastor at park
Speaker 1: Place in Pearl, Misissippi, and he said, if you want
Speaker 1: to after we have something to eat, if you want
Speaker 1: to take some time to go over your notes, pray,
Speaker 1: just have some quiet time, you can use my office.
Speaker 1: That's pretty common, that's not abnormal, Okay. So the minute
Speaker 1: we went to his office, he turned down a couple
Speaker 1: of steps. He said, now watch the steps now, and
Speaker 1: I didn't think think about it watching step there was
Speaker 1: nothing there because I thought, maybe these are precarious steps
Speaker 1: on the drive get you, maybe they've knocked some people down.
Speaker 1: I didn't think anything about it. Okay, kid, you not
Speaker 1: we go all right, So let's go in here for
Speaker 1: the mic check. Okay, come into the sanctuary. You look around.
Speaker 1: Here's your headset. I have to I always ask for
Speaker 1: two ears if it's possible. I'd rather have a handheld mike.
Speaker 1: If you don't have two ears on the headset, these
Speaker 1: one ear headsets, I wrestle those like there's.
Speaker 2: Some kind of animal attack in my head. I can't
Speaker 2: keep them on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so anyway, if it's not two ears, I'd
Speaker 1: just rather have a handheld or I'll just stay behind
Speaker 1: the podium. So I'm sorry the lectern on the podium
Speaker 1: right So anyway, that guy's gonna be very proud of us.
Speaker 1: So there's steps going up to the stage. Hey, watch
Speaker 1: those steps right there. There's no rails. I kind of
Speaker 1: looked and I was like, yes, okay, thank you.
Speaker 2: That's two STAPs. Protection that's two steps that he's warned
Speaker 2: me about. Okay. Then then I think, well that's got
Speaker 2: to be it. Hey, when you go up virtue, the
Speaker 2: lectern there's a rug right there, don't trip over.
Speaker 1: It, and like any of this guy's this real trip
Speaker 1: sensitive what's going on? He worries about it by tripping. Well,
Speaker 1: there's two things, three warnings. Yeah, I mean, am I
Speaker 1: does he.
Speaker 2: See me as like a.
Speaker 5: Dramatic lights on stage?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 2: I think I think I can maneuver these steps in
Speaker 2: this rug. I really do.
Speaker 4: Like there's one of two things. And you alluded to it,
Speaker 4: the the the warning because he's worried that that's kind
Speaker 4: of it. It could be though, Hey, these have given
Speaker 4: us fits before, and it's easy to missive or fall,
Speaker 4: you know, so just a heads up because well it's
Speaker 4: either that or you look like you could fall.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of the two. You may have just
Speaker 2: been having one of them days. It's one of two.
Speaker 4: I mean, it could be that maybe the rug has
Speaker 4: given people fits. And he's like, hey, both steps and
Speaker 4: the steps, and I'm not worried. I don't know about
Speaker 4: the steps. Watch your step.
Speaker 2: Yeah. He literally said, there's no rail, there's just three
Speaker 2: steps up to the stage.
Speaker 1: That all it is.
Speaker 2: Did you not have your legs under you after the
Speaker 2: long drive?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: You know, when you get out of the gates. I
Speaker 5: think your gate is a little misleading. Somebody text nations,
Speaker 5: I think you walk.
Speaker 2: Somebody who text says, I walk like there's rocks in
Speaker 2: my shoes. There you go yeaheah.
Speaker 6: I think your walk is a little misleading. It looks
Speaker 6: like you I have a struggle, but you're strong. Yeah,
Speaker 6: you just don't walk good, right, okay from strong as.
Speaker 2: You just don't walk like it. Yeah, you don't walk
Speaker 2: like So would you give me a warning? Would you say?
Speaker 2: Ey ey? How old is the singer Pastor? He's probably
Speaker 2: I don't know. He thought he was probably in his forties.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he was concerned. He thought you were gone.
Speaker 2: Oh he's just being at yellower.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe fifties, I don't know. He had he had
Speaker 1: great hair, Like did he have any probus of the stairs?
Speaker 1: He did not, And and and it's like I was
Speaker 1: people like well, and I'm like you know what it
Speaker 1: felt like? You know how sometimes you like we all
Speaker 1: have these people that we remember when they were younger
Speaker 1: and they're still speaking and you're bringing them back. You're like, hey,
Speaker 1: this is a guy there. Because I no longer considered
Speaker 1: the hey, you know this, you've heard of this guy. Now,
Speaker 1: it's like is he still alive?
Speaker 12: You know?
Speaker 1: And and so and so it's almost like, you know,
Speaker 1: you bring them in, but you think, hey, they've been
Speaker 1: around a while. We need to we need to escore
Speaker 1: him to the up there, to the elector and you
Speaker 1: know this, just let's be sure they're steady.
Speaker 2: I was like, I still move around the stage and
Speaker 2: all that. I'm good. So he wasn't your age?
Speaker 6: No, Okay, that's different because I was thinking if he
Speaker 6: if he was, you know, when you're speaking and sometimes
Speaker 6: there's like you know, the glow and the dark tape
Speaker 6: and a guy who even have like a flashlight on
Speaker 6: the ground, like pointing at the steps, which I appreciate
Speaker 6: that guy.
Speaker 5: You know, I've had that guy before playing drum gigs
Speaker 5: and stuff like that. Was that kind of lights.
Speaker 2: We're not turning the lights off every steps we approached.
Speaker 1: He warned me about them. Everyone watch you steps looked
Speaker 1: a little unstable that Hey watch that, Matt.
Speaker 2: I can pick my feet. I think I can get
Speaker 2: over a mat.
Speaker 6: You need to probably start saying like I got a
Speaker 6: bad ankle, but I still work out.
Speaker 5: Everybody.
Speaker 2: Okay, let me ask your question. People that are you
Speaker 2: dragging your feet or are you picking them up? Because
Speaker 2: that could be another thing.
Speaker 4: He might say, Hey, we got a dragger, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean, you're yeah, that might be he thought,
Speaker 4: maybe you're dragon workout and stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know you need to tell people that.
Speaker 2: And the workout includes like box steps and things of
Speaker 2: this nature.
Speaker 5: Walk around for us real quick. Let us check your.
Speaker 2: Walk, yeah, I mean walking like a bad walk from
Speaker 2: the drive and sitting down to them almost the break.
Speaker 4: I just want to see if you may be maybe
Speaker 4: you're not picking your toes up. And he felt like
Speaker 4: you were going to drag it on that rug.
Speaker 2: That's probably it. Yeah, oh yeah, no, ye for a while. Oh,
Speaker 2: I didn't know you drug your foot. Well that just
Speaker 2: then I did too. That yeah, a that that floks dead.
Speaker 2: I mean it's been dead. Watch that rug.
Speaker 6: Hey, hey, there's there is a thing right there straight
Speaker 6: up there is about that you stopped before.
Speaker 2: I was worried. Yeah, maybe we getting them dogs. It
Speaker 2: breaks you fall. Oh yeah, if you had a doll
Speaker 2: where you're in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now I realize I got to add to the
Speaker 1: things to consider, and when I come to speak, be
Speaker 1: sure there's no treacherous steps. So There's been a couple
Speaker 1: of times that we've talked about a topic then realized
Speaker 1: we left something out or we found out new information.
Speaker 1: So we mentioned we mentioned l s U won the
Speaker 1: men's college Baseball World Series. Congratulations Tigers. Tigers coaster Carolina,
Speaker 1: who was kind of a darling of the series outstanding
Speaker 1: baseball team.
Speaker 2: Their coach was tossed. Was that game too, you said
Speaker 2: he at the press conference.
Speaker 1: We now have it because those of you that haven't
Speaker 1: seen it, and I had not seen it until until
Speaker 1: we got to work today. One of the umps falls
Speaker 1: backward and he makes it look like the coach may
Speaker 1: have put a shoulder into him or something, but that's
Speaker 1: not the case. And so the coach is saying, I'm
Speaker 1: going to own what happened to me if these things
Speaker 1: are true, but I am not going to own this
Speaker 1: guy falling.
Speaker 2: And he explains all that. So is this you? Yeah?
Speaker 4: And this is the press con anything over here from Adler.
Speaker 4: He's just rolling b roll. But the coach was asked, Okay,
Speaker 4: what happened from your perspective?
Speaker 14: No, would be an eleven point seven coach, the twenty
Speaker 14: eighth pitch of the first inning, were you warned prior
Speaker 14: to it, and then I know the homeplate umpire kind
Speaker 14: of turned his back and walked away, where any words
Speaker 14: shared from him to you.
Speaker 7: Afterwards, there's twenty five thousand people there, and I vaguely
Speaker 7: hear a warning issued as the head coach, and I
Speaker 7: was assistant for twenty four years, and as an assistant
Speaker 7: you're almost treated like a second grade, second level citizen
Speaker 7: and you can't say a word. And now as a
Speaker 7: head coach, I think it is your right to get
Speaker 7: an explanation of why we got warned. And I'm forty
Speaker 7: eight years old. I shouldn't get showed by another grown man,
Speaker 7: right So when I come out to ask what the
Speaker 7: warning is, a grown man showed me. So at that
Speaker 7: point I can now hear him say it was a
Speaker 7: warning issued for arguing balls and stripe. And at that point,
Speaker 7: I said, because you missed three. At that point ejected.
Speaker 7: If that warrants an ejection, I'm the first one to
Speaker 7: stand here like a man and apologize to words that
Speaker 7: the Fine Art program.
Speaker 10: Or own it.
Speaker 7: And what does that mean is you have to own
Speaker 7: You have to own everything that you do without blame,
Speaker 7: without defending yourself, without excuses.
Speaker 10: If you guys watched the video.
Speaker 7: There was a guy that came in extremely aggressively, tripped
Speaker 7: over the camp post, is foot, embarrassed in front of
Speaker 7: twenty five thousand, immediately goes two game suspension and said
Speaker 7: bumping the umpire immediately does that There was no bump,
Speaker 7: he was embarrassed. I shouldn't be held accountable for a
Speaker 7: grown man's athleticism.
Speaker 10: Now it's excessive.
Speaker 7: And the reason why it was excessive because I was
Speaker 7: trying to say I.
Speaker 10: Didn't pump him.
Speaker 2: It is what it is.
Speaker 7: But if that warranted an ejection, man, it'd be a
Speaker 7: lot of ejections. As an umpire, I feel like it's
Speaker 7: your job to manage the game. The National Championship game
Speaker 7: was some poise, some calmness, and a little bit of tolerance.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I uh, I can't be held responsible for his
Speaker 2: athletic ability. Yeah.
Speaker 6: He did come in hot and then he just kind
Speaker 6: of fell backwards over his own feet.
Speaker 4: It looks like it's a uh, the other the other
Speaker 4: umpire's foot he tripped over, and he tried to get
Speaker 4: in between the behind the plate up and the coach
Speaker 4: and then and then he tripped over the other umpire's foot. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: and but and then, like a drama queen tried to
Speaker 4: claim he was shoved or pushed what by the are
Speaker 4: bumped by the head coach and the head coaches.
Speaker 2: I did not bump him.
Speaker 1: He just fell over somebody's feet and he got embarrassed
Speaker 1: and he tried to blame me for his lack of
Speaker 1: athletic ability.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's hilarious.
Speaker 4: But Coastal had quite a run. I think they had
Speaker 4: won twenty six twenty seven in a row, I can't
Speaker 4: remember the number. And then LSU swept him in the
Speaker 4: in the final championship series. So congratulations to LSU.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, As you see it when he was arguing with
Speaker 1: them and you're looking at the stands behind him, LSU fans.
Speaker 2: Are doing this.
Speaker 5: Second we go.
Speaker 2: Uh, here's uh. Bird just comes from Zach.
Speaker 5: Zach.
Speaker 2: I think you're all right, don't. I think you're good man.
Speaker 1: I guess this happened with us discussing when you guys
Speaker 1: gave me You've been so supportive lately. You gave me
Speaker 1: a hard time about checking on, you know, a friend
Speaker 1: of mine, to be sure it's car cranked, and now
Speaker 1: it's got it seems to have launched me in everywhere, wondering,
Speaker 1: wandering us to make rulings on whether.
Speaker 2: Something was gay or not.
Speaker 1: Okay, so here's Zach and I don't this is new.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of this. Hey bird, Hey bird, Hey Zach.
Speaker 1: A bit of a dilemma here. Love milkshakes. You guys
Speaker 1: are talking about National Milkshake Day. I love I love milkshakes.
Speaker 1: I usually get one from Chick fil A every summer
Speaker 1: they offer a peach flavored milkshake. I've thought about trying
Speaker 1: it several times. That one thing has always stopped me.
Speaker 1: I can't shake the feeling that it would be a
Speaker 1: little gay. Growing up, the only people I knew who
Speaker 1: drank the peach milkshake were women, So maybe I have
Speaker 1: a skewed perspective. So would it be gay for a
Speaker 1: grown up man to drink a peach milkshake? Or am
Speaker 1: I safe to try it? I love to get your
Speaker 1: guys opinion, especially Greggs, since he seems to be a
Speaker 1: gay expert.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what that means. Well, you're not sure
Speaker 2: what that means.
Speaker 1: They're just saying that you can make a call or something.
Speaker 1: Because you said that about my breakfast. The first month
Speaker 1: of the show. Yeah, yeah, so that he's just saying,
Speaker 1: you make a call. I've never heard the peach milkshake
Speaker 1: tied to lack of masculine I.
Speaker 2: Will say this.
Speaker 1: Let's say there's a meter here. This is who way feminine.
Speaker 1: This is not femine at all. He's a little ride
Speaker 1: of center. It's going to it's not, but it's looking
Speaker 1: at it, it could be feminine. So if we're if
Speaker 1: we're at the drive three, not much, but I might
Speaker 1: go we got a peach teak seven chocolate, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're all screaming milkshakes to you. You're driving,
Speaker 4: and we're all giving you our order. You're at the
Speaker 4: drive through, and from the back of you here, I'll
Speaker 4: take a peach one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just get a peach ice cream.
Speaker 1: That's better, alight, all right, let's let's let's have Addler
Speaker 1: order the peach, and let's all order and let's see
Speaker 1: how it sounds.
Speaker 5: Let me get one of those peach.
Speaker 1: Let's let's start hearing you be last. Let's see how
Speaker 1: it sounds. I'll take your chocolate. I'll do oreo peanut butter.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's complete, but I.
Speaker 5: See where now.
Speaker 2: All right, maybe the guy's point, because you really had
Speaker 2: to butcher up to make it work. It's not it's
Speaker 2: not complete sellout, but it's yeah.
Speaker 1: The disorder that when nobody's with you, and if nobody's
Speaker 1: with you, you're good. Okay, just don't do it with
Speaker 1: the guys there it is. He can try, but it's
Speaker 1: got to be so exactly.
Speaker 5: Maybe with your wife it would be better.
Speaker 2: Even you'll be getting hers because she probably had one.
Speaker 2: Oh that's good.
Speaker 5: I'm just getting one because he's getting one. You know,
Speaker 5: I just want That's what I said. I want to
Speaker 5: pitch one.
Speaker 2: You're mister t I don't know. Somebody said that. They agree,
Speaker 2: They said, sorry, where you are, French toast is fine
Speaker 2: unless you ordered a cracker bery. Yeah matter.
Speaker 10: This is the Rick Burgess Show.
Speaker 2: A bombing.
Speaker 1: Expedition to Iran. It's incredible to watch these b two
Speaker 1: bombers leave Missouri. Uh. We all the all that it
Speaker 1: took to make it was it seven thousand something miles
Speaker 1: uh to these targets UH in Iran, drop these uh
Speaker 1: bunker busters and then get all the way back to Missouri.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: And I didn't lose anybody.
Speaker 1: I don't even think a shot was fired and all
Speaker 1: the people then that that went through this, and then
Speaker 1: we launched you know, these other missiles from submarines that
Speaker 1: were four hundred miles away. Just incredible show of force
Speaker 1: and also preciseness and technology that is mind boggling. You know,
Speaker 1: just what it takes to refuel you know, one in
Speaker 1: the air.
Speaker 2: Is amazing. To keep on track.
Speaker 1: As you said, they didn't talk a whole lot at
Speaker 1: all because you know, they wanted to go in undetected,
Speaker 1: uh and they did so, So why don't we go
Speaker 1: to three here?
Speaker 2: I think that that's a good one to start with
Speaker 2: based on what we just said.
Speaker 1: Here's Pete, heg Seth and he's he's he's talking about
Speaker 1: what Iran must be thinking after they realized how this
Speaker 1: was done here.
Speaker 15: It is of almost any American if you had an
Speaker 15: opportunity to watch it in real time. And I think
Speaker 15: Taran is certainly calculating the reality that planes flew from
Speaker 15: the middle of a Mariaara and Missouri overnight completely undetected
Speaker 15: over three of their most highly sensitive sites, and we
Speaker 15: were able to destroy nuclear capabilities.
Speaker 5: And our boys in those bombers are on their way
Speaker 5: home right now.
Speaker 15: We believe that'll have a clear psychological impact on how
Speaker 15: they view the future, and we certainly hope they take
Speaker 15: the path of negotiated peace.
Speaker 5: But I could not be more proud.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really was an incredible feat by military. Jd
Speaker 1: Vance Video two. Adder does want to make it clear,
Speaker 1: and you hear this a lot, that we are not
Speaker 1: at war with Iran. But let me tell you what
Speaker 1: exactly we are doing. So here's Vice President jd.
Speaker 5: Vance And the second thing is Kristin.
Speaker 11: I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after twenty
Speaker 11: five years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East.
Speaker 5: I understand the concern.
Speaker 11: But the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents,
Speaker 11: and now we have a president who actually knows how
Speaker 11: to accomplish America's national security objectives.
Speaker 10: So this is not going to be some.
Speaker 11: Long drawn out thing we've got in. We've done the
Speaker 11: job of setting their nuclear program back. We're going to
Speaker 11: now work to permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the
Speaker 11: coming years, and that is what the President has set
Speaker 11: out to do.
Speaker 2: Simple So and then here here is Trump.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to play all three minutes of it,
Speaker 1: but he is telling Iran that they have a choice
Speaker 1: and what they want to pick right now, and he
Speaker 1: makes it crystal clear.
Speaker 2: So here's the president.
Speaker 12: A short time ago, the US military carried out massive
Speaker 12: precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the
Speaker 12: Iranian regime for Doe, Natanz, and Esfahan. Everybody heard those
Speaker 12: names for years as they built this horribly destructive enterprise.
Speaker 12: Our objective was the destruction of irans nuclear and richment
Speaker 12: capacity and a star to the nuclear threat posed by
Speaker 12: the world's number one state sponsor of terror. Tonight, I
Speaker 12: can report to the world that the strikes were a
Speaker 12: spectacular military success. Iran's key nuclear and richmond facilities have
Speaker 12: been completely and totally obliterated. Ran, the bully of the
Speaker 12: Middle East, must now make peace. If they do not,
Speaker 12: future attacks would be far greater and a lot easier.
Speaker 12: For forty years, Iran has been saying death to America,
Speaker 12: death to Israel. They have been killing our people, blowing
Speaker 12: off their arms, blowing off their legs with roadside bombs,
Speaker 12: that was their specialty. We lost over a thousand people,
Speaker 12: and hundreds of thousands throughout the Middle East and around
Speaker 12: the world have died as a direct result of their hate.
Speaker 12: In particular, so many were killed by their general Cassem SOLEMANI.
Speaker 12: I decided a long time ago that I would not
Speaker 12: let this happen. It will not continue. I want to
Speaker 12: thank and congratulate Prime Minister, bb Net and Yahoo. We
Speaker 12: worked as a team like perhaps no team has ever
Speaker 12: worked before, and we've gone a long way to erasing
Speaker 12: this horrible threat to Israel. I want to thank the
Speaker 12: Israeli military for the wonderful job they've done. And most importantly,
Speaker 12: I want to congratulate the great American patriots who flew
Speaker 12: those magnificent machines tonight, and all of the United States
Speaker 12: military on an operation the likes of which the world
Speaker 12: has not seen in many, many decades.
Speaker 1: So there you go, and he says, Ron, it's simple.
Speaker 1: You can either have peace or there will be tragedy.
Speaker 1: There'll be more of it, Adam. I think we can
Speaker 1: get four in real quick video with good audio of
Speaker 1: the bombers actually taking off, and you can hear the
Speaker 1: cockpit radio audio, which is really cool.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's really cool. You can hear what they're listening to.
Speaker 2: Bom bom bomb, all right, by my man. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: you go.
Speaker 1: So so anyway, there's other things we can say about it.
Speaker 1: But when we come back, David Nasher, who actually is
Speaker 1: Persian and his family escaped to one of the many
Speaker 1: tyrannical regimes that have ruled over Iran in modern time,
Speaker 1: and we'll.
Speaker 2: Get to his perspective.
Speaker 1: You hear his story and we'll talk a little bit
Speaker 1: about where do we go from here. You know, there's
Speaker 1: many spiritual aspects to this as well that he can
Speaker 1: speak to, and we'll have him with us when we
Speaker 1: come back. If you're leaving us, don't forget to grab
Speaker 1: that today on the podcast or YouTube arcap.
Speaker 2: You don't want to miss that conversation.
Speaker 1: So he's in pretty high demand today as you can imagine,
Speaker 1: and kind enough to spend some time with us, and
Speaker 1: we'll talk with him when we come back. If you
Speaker 1: don't know how to get the show live or archives
Speaker 1: on your own time, you can find all that at
Speaker 1: rickburgessshow dot com.
Speaker 10: This is the Rick Burgess Show.
Speaker 2: We're not spending the Whost Show on it.
Speaker 1: But obviously the bombing of Iran over the weekend has
Speaker 1: all of us educating ourselves again on this long, long
Speaker 1: history with Iran and Israel and America and the West,
Speaker 1: and it's been going on a long long time. At
Speaker 1: one time, if you go all the way back in history,
Speaker 1: as Netan Yahoo has even referred to, you know, Cyrus
Speaker 1: the Great, the Persian actually became an asset for the
Speaker 1: Hebrew people, and net Yahoo has longed for a return
Speaker 1: to good relations between the Persian people and the Hebrews,
Speaker 1: and it has been a long time since that has
Speaker 1: been the case.
Speaker 2: David Nasher joins us. Now, David, welcome back. How are you, sir?
Speaker 2: Welcome to the rick burgership.
Speaker 3: Man. It's good to hear your voice, buddy, I know,
Speaker 3: and I'm.
Speaker 1: So proud of you for slowing down a little bit.
Speaker 1: And you know, you and I were discussing. You're you're
Speaker 1: involved in so few things now, you're like the rest
Speaker 1: of us. I don't think we were ever you know,
Speaker 1: God may may not, may call us to different things,
Speaker 1: but the concept of retirement can't really find that in
Speaker 1: the Bible. He may move you to a new thing,
Speaker 1: and you may not be always doing the same thing,
Speaker 1: but we're supposed to continue to work until He calls
Speaker 1: us home or return. So you're definitely doing that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, man, absolutely, I want my life to count, you know,
Speaker 8: and when God put a call of ministry on my life,
Speaker 8: he never gave me an end date, you know, on
Speaker 8: this side of heaven. And I'm just so honored. Honestly,
Speaker 8: I'll say this, I'm humbled and surprised that God continues
Speaker 8: to give me just incredible assignments. And so, yeah, it's
Speaker 8: good to hear your voice.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 8: I was thinking about Rick, how when I lived in Birmingham,
Speaker 8: you were such a gift to me. You were a friend,
Speaker 8: and man, you're my accountability partner. We'd get together for
Speaker 8: lunch and talk about big things, important things. You'd confront me,
Speaker 8: I'd confront you, and man, what a gift you've been
Speaker 8: in my life. And this show has always stood for
Speaker 8: the truth.
Speaker 3: And so thank Yeah, Bro, it's good to be back on.
Speaker 1: Yeah it is, and definitely miss you. So let's do
Speaker 1: this for the audience and kind of do a reset
Speaker 1: you are. You know, I introduced you as everybody's favorite Persian.
Speaker 1: You and your family. You know about these militant regimes
Speaker 1: firsthand because in nineteen seventy nine, I know that your
Speaker 1: dad can speak to it when he was still with us,
Speaker 1: more than even you. You were only nine but it
Speaker 1: left an imprint on you. Your life actually came to
Speaker 1: America seeking asylum from a horrible regime that was running
Speaker 1: around at that time. So tell us your story for
Speaker 1: those that may not know it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was born in Iran, like you said, and
Speaker 8: in nineteen seventy nine, when the Iranian Revolution happened, basically
Speaker 8: the Islamic regime took over our country.
Speaker 3: And when that.
Speaker 8: Happened, my family and I escaped from Iran. My dad
Speaker 8: was high rank in the military, and so our lives
Speaker 8: were in danger, and we eventually ended up in the
Speaker 8: United States as legal immigrants under political asylum. And so
Speaker 8: I was a site Muslim by heritage. We weren't really
Speaker 8: that devout, but a complete fish out of water coming
Speaker 8: into the United States. We moved to Texas to an
Speaker 8: army town during the Iranian hostage situation. So people were
Speaker 8: watching on TV how Iran was burning the American flag,
Speaker 8: calling America the great Satan, how they were shouting death
Speaker 8: to America in the streets. And here we were, this
Speaker 8: Iranian family that had moved into a military town in Texas,
Speaker 8: you know, in the middle of all that. So I
Speaker 8: say always that I was a wedgie waiting to happen.
Speaker 8: You know, for years, I was just this outcasted kid.
Speaker 8: I mean I went to school every day, heard every nickname,
Speaker 8: every seven eleven joke, every turban joke. I got called
Speaker 8: beaned dip. And I'm not even Mexican. I was like,
Speaker 8: you're not even accurate in eurracism. You know, we'd escaped
Speaker 8: halfway across the world to honestly come here and come
Speaker 8: looking for refuge as refugees, but it didn't feel like
Speaker 8: a safe place.
Speaker 3: And for years and years that was me.
Speaker 8: We eventually moved from Texas to Alabama. I went to
Speaker 8: the Stavy Hills by the way, and one day my dad,
Speaker 8: feeling sorry for me, gave me an extreme makeover for
Speaker 8: high school. And my high school years became the years
Speaker 8: where I just learned how to wear the right label,
Speaker 8: end up at the right lunch room table, how to
Speaker 8: dump the right girl before she could dump me, you know,
Speaker 8: how to climb the social ladder. And I played high school.
Speaker 8: And it's so true where it sayn't the Bible, what
Speaker 8: good is it for a man to gain the whole
Speaker 8: world but to forfeit his soul? Because on paper everything
Speaker 8: was so much better, but in my soul. I was
Speaker 8: just as empty as when I was a nobody, you know,
Speaker 8: in school. And so right after high school, one day
Speaker 8: a buddy of mine invited me to church, and I
Speaker 8: didn't want to go to church. I told him that
Speaker 8: I had a bad taste in my mouth about religion
Speaker 8: and how I was Muslim by heritage, but not even
Speaker 8: a good one. But he kept on me about going
Speaker 8: to church, and I eventually went to church with him,
Speaker 8: and for the next eight Monday nights in a row,
Speaker 8: these Christians came to my house and witnessed me, you know,
Speaker 8: and it was amazing, Like every Monday night, one week
Speaker 8: it would be John three sixteen. You know, God so
Speaker 8: loved the world that he gave his only son that
Speaker 8: if you believe in him, you want pairs, but have
Speaker 8: eternal life, lock and load. Next week they'd come back
Speaker 8: and it'd be John fourteen six Jesus says, I'm the way,
Speaker 8: the truth in the life. No one comes to the
Speaker 8: Father but by me. The next week they'd come back
Speaker 8: and be He who knew no sin became sin, so
Speaker 8: you could become the right sisters of God. And every
Speaker 8: week it would be the same message, a different you
Speaker 8: know passage, and they would show me that I was
Speaker 8: a sinner in need of a savior. And so after
Speaker 8: eight weeks, one night I was at the church Cha's
Speaker 8: Mountain Baptist Church by the way, and man, I heard
Speaker 8: the gospel from doctor Carter, and I went home to
Speaker 8: try to get away from it, but it just kept
Speaker 8: at going in my spirit. And I was eighteen and
Speaker 8: two months old the night that I became a Christian.
Speaker 8: And so I became a Christian at eighteen. And my
Speaker 8: parents were never devout as Muslims until the night I
Speaker 8: became a Christian right and then they disowned me. And
Speaker 8: I moved in with seven guys, six guys that lived
Speaker 8: in a one bedroom apartment right there in Vestavia Hills,
Speaker 8: and Charles Billingsley.
Speaker 2: Was one of them, by the way, how about there,
Speaker 2: and all.
Speaker 3: Of us old guys, young guys moved in.
Speaker 8: This house, and man, within the first five months, I
Speaker 8: saw my sister coming to the Lord. And then five
Speaker 8: months after that my mom became a Christian, and then
Speaker 8: five months after that my brother Benjamin, that God just
Speaker 8: made fearfully and wonderfully down syndrome. I became a Christian,
Speaker 8: and then two and a half years later, my dad
Speaker 8: became a Christian and so yeah, that's my story. Man
Speaker 8: and God is just really a testimony of the power
Speaker 8: of the Gospel to deliver people out of religion gone wrong.
Speaker 1: So the Persian people, and I want to be sure
Speaker 1: and get that right, because a lot of times we
Speaker 1: call them Iranians, and you certainly don't call them Arabs.
Speaker 1: It's Persians and the Persian people outside of whatever tyrannical
Speaker 1: regime is in control. What's the view of the Persian
Speaker 1: people of the United States if they had the freedom
Speaker 1: to express it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think obviously I can't speak for ninety million
Speaker 8: sure in Iran, but I would say the overall sin
Speaker 8: And this is what I'm hearing from people who are
Speaker 8: actually allowed to go back to Iran. My family and
Speaker 8: I are not allowed to go back to your ow
Speaker 8: we escaped and were wanted there. But that said, I
Speaker 8: have friends and I've met journalists before and people who've
Speaker 8: gone to Iran. Even tourism right now in Iran is
Speaker 8: actually growing, and people who've gone to those historic sites
Speaker 8: and they come back and tell me that they're surprised
Speaker 8: at how many Iranians come over to them when they
Speaker 8: realize they're Americans and say, hey, we just want you
Speaker 8: to know we love America, We're for America.
Speaker 3: We think America is awesome.
Speaker 8: And so I would say that the overall sentiment from
Speaker 8: what I'm hearing is that most Iranians love Americans, but
Speaker 8: maybe have a high view warm regard towards Americans, but
Speaker 8: are more critical in their view of the politicians and
Speaker 8: the politics of America because they felt that the weight
Speaker 8: of these things and the way that they're being explained
Speaker 8: to them is that, hey, America is the greatest contributor
Speaker 8: of putting these sanctions on us.
Speaker 3: And so when you're.
Speaker 8: Waiting in line for two hours for a loaf of
Speaker 8: bread and you're only sanctioned a small amount of gas
Speaker 8: even though for your car, even though the entire country
Speaker 8: sits on oil, and you're fifty percent of the nation
Speaker 8: is under the poverty line, you know, you just begin
Speaker 8: to realize that so much of that can spray on
Speaker 8: their sentiment towards the American government. But you know, we
Speaker 8: see American government as like you know, Democrat republics. To them,
Speaker 8: it's a little more just like whoever's in charge of
Speaker 8: America is making life hard on US, and so I
Speaker 8: would say they're critical, and they're towards our politicians and
Speaker 8: our political views, but incredibly warm towards us. The best
Speaker 8: stats that I know about them, Rick, are about fifteen percent.
Speaker 3: Of Iranian are hard line anti American.
Speaker 2: Fifteen I would say.
Speaker 8: I always say, when those people shout death to America,
Speaker 8: you better believe them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I want to talk about that. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: want to touch on that when we come back.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, we got one more segment we're going
Speaker 1: to spend with David and we're going to get into that.
Speaker 2: So thank you for that insight.
Speaker 1: More with David Nasser when the Rick Burgess Show continues,
Speaker 1: and we'll do that right after this with the regime,
Speaker 1: not the people, to take out Israel and if possible, America,
Speaker 1: Great Britain.
Speaker 2: Should these threats be taken serious?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely.
Speaker 8: I think they've They've shown over and over again that
Speaker 8: they are funding terrorism, they are conspiring towards more evil
Speaker 8: and terrorism, and they they genuinely believe that they're pointed
Speaker 8: by their God to you know, fight evil, and they
Speaker 8: believe we're evil. And so I always say, anytime someone
Speaker 8: says death to America, over and over and over again.
Speaker 3: You should believe them.
Speaker 8: Now again, fifteen ten percent of the people of Iran,
Speaker 8: and they're the ones who get on the TV the
Speaker 8: most because if it bleeds, it leads, right, and they're
Speaker 8: the ones who end up in front of the cameras.
Speaker 8: But that's fifteen percent of Irra audience. The rest, I'd
Speaker 8: say eighty five percent of the people in Iran. They
Speaker 8: want peace and prosperity for everybody, and they want democracy,
Speaker 8: they want a new regime. They want to see this
Speaker 8: Islamic regime overthrown because it's terrorizing them and terrorizing.
Speaker 3: The rest of us.
Speaker 8: And so yeah, I think we have to take it seriously.
Speaker 8: Now that said, no God loving Christian wants war. You know,
Speaker 8: no one wants to see bombs thrown, you know, on
Speaker 8: buildings that could accidentally take the life of children or
Speaker 8: innocent families. But it is important in times like this
Speaker 8: to distinguish the difference between bombing you know, nuclear sites
Speaker 8: versus just bombing a nation.
Speaker 3: And I think that's what America did. Now I am
Speaker 3: going to.
Speaker 8: I choose to believe that this is because of intelligence
Speaker 8: that they had that I'm not prevy to, because they
Speaker 8: know that that comes with risk because again, fifteen percent
Speaker 8: want to harm us an eighty five percent don't. But
Speaker 8: the fifteen percent that do rick, they're the ones who
Speaker 8: are organized. They're the ones who are weaponized, you know,
Speaker 8: They're the ones who are mobilized. And the eighty five
Speaker 8: percent of the Iranian people that are good people, they
Speaker 8: are not mobilized. They are not they do not have,
Speaker 8: you know, the tools that they need to fight. But
Speaker 8: I think it's got to be the kind of thing
Speaker 8: where we're helping the Iranian people overthrow this evil regime, yes,
Speaker 8: you know. And one of the ways we could do
Speaker 8: that maybe is just even by the way that we
Speaker 8: help I know Elon Musk is trying to get startlingk there,
Speaker 8: but you've got to have a receiving box, you know.
Speaker 8: Is to bring back communication so that people can fight
Speaker 8: this revolution with their iPhones in their hand and tell
Speaker 8: the great stories as well and communicate as well. Another
Speaker 8: one is to work with the shaft Son, you know,
Speaker 8: the Palavi family about helping bring stability if the government
Speaker 8: is overthrown. He's not looking to come back and be
Speaker 8: the monarch and be the king. He's looking to come
Speaker 8: back and service nation, so that then the people can
Speaker 8: have an opportunity.
Speaker 3: To vote in who they want to be their leader.
Speaker 3: But I think it's a robust strategy that we can
Speaker 3: be a help to.
Speaker 8: But I as an Iranian American citizen who was born
Speaker 8: in Iran, I saw what happened the other night as
Speaker 8: not a bomb bomb bomb bombomb Iran, beat my chest
Speaker 8: happy moment, but as a heartbreaking moment, but a necessary
Speaker 8: one because it is godly to rise up against evil.
Speaker 8: It is godly to stand up for those who can't
Speaker 8: send up for themselves. It is godly to protect the innocent.
Speaker 8: And I think bombing those nuclear sites, one of them
Speaker 8: being in Esfahan, the very city I was born in,
Speaker 8: bombing those sites prevents us from greater damage and greater death.
Speaker 1: So looking at the population, I heard you say that
Speaker 1: sixty forty or younger.
Speaker 2: Is that correct?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 8: It's a young nation, and so you've got young, audacious people.
Speaker 8: Every great revolution in the world in history, whether it
Speaker 8: was Tenements Square, the Iranian Revolution in nineteen seventy nine,
Speaker 8: every great revolution in the world, even the American Revolution,
Speaker 8: was led by audacious young people who are willing to
Speaker 8: just swing, you know, throwing the end zone and Iran
Speaker 8: as a young nation. You've got over ninety million people
Speaker 8: and sixty percent of them are under the age of forty.
Speaker 8: And by the way, they're looking around and they're realizing
Speaker 8: that religion isn't working. Those troubled places in the world,
Speaker 8: by the way, are the most religious places in the world.
Speaker 8: And you're talking about a place where because of shre
Speaker 8: Charia law, because of you know, just the tyranny of
Speaker 8: it all, they've done more damage than good in the
Speaker 8: life of people. I mean, I read a sat the
Speaker 8: other day where there are over a quarter million prostitutes
Speaker 8: in Iran.
Speaker 3: Because women in the middle of all of this Charia law.
Speaker 8: Are at the hardest hit, like so much of the
Speaker 8: poverty that's happening and the destruction that is happening. And
Speaker 8: you've just you've got you've got a nation right now
Speaker 8: where drug uses is rampage, you know, so much sin,
Speaker 8: and it's a remind not just on that side of
Speaker 8: the ocean, but here that religion doesn't really fix anything.
Speaker 3: Religion is destructive. Redemption is hopeful.
Speaker 8: And ultimately, by the way, what Iran needs ultimately is
Speaker 8: not a new governance. Ultimately, what Iran needs is not
Speaker 8: a revolution but a revival. But I do believe that
Speaker 8: the young people of Iran are probably more open to
Speaker 8: revival than ever before because they've seen how religion doesn't work.
Speaker 8: So what an incredible chance for us to see the
Speaker 8: church in Iran thrive. By the way, the fastest growing
Speaker 8: church in the world is Iran.
Speaker 10: That's great, the underground church.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, well, David, thank you.
Speaker 1: I know everybody's after you, and thank you for giving
Speaker 1: us time today, and it's so good to reconnect. And
Speaker 1: I hope that this you and I can start keeping
Speaker 1: in touch again like we did before. And glad that
Speaker 1: we started that with this conversation today.
Speaker 2: I love you, buddy, love you two man. Thanks for
Speaker 2: all you do for the kingdom.
Speaker 1: David Nassar taking time to be with us today a
Speaker 1: very unique perspective on all that's going on with the
Speaker 1: country and of course the Iranians, the Persian people themselves,
Speaker 1: where the fastest growing church in the world is underground
Speaker 1: and that's always where.
Speaker 2: The hope is found.
Speaker 10: This is the Rick Burgess Show.
Speaker 1: Show Speedy this week and is Larry Quest. Do not
Speaker 1: miss Speedy heads out Wednesday. Spend the night with Larry

Speaker 1: name and every key something, what's the d L.
Speaker 2: Wrinkles?
Speaker 1: So Speedy thought, here's another opportunity to bring laughs to
Speaker 1: an audience that had been laughing in for years. What
Speaker 1: happened next no one would ever forget. When they said
Speaker 1: goodbye to Speedy on Wednesday, no one knew it would
Speaker 1: be the last time they would see him again. I
Speaker 1: will tell this on Wednesday. I don't do bro hugs.

Speaker 2: I'm gonna hold you a little longer if you don't mind. Larry.
Speaker 2: Larry and Carolyn were the brand new guests on the
Speaker 2: All New Rick Bridges Show, and everyone loved them. But
Speaker 2: what they didn't know would change everything. A minute, I'm laughing,
Speaker 2: we're in a bit.
Speaker 5: That's good.
Speaker 1: Everybody's new favorite character. But what the audience didn't know
Speaker 1: would change everything.
Speaker 2: Bring bringing The audience thought it was about Patches, a.
Speaker 1: Patch collector on a voicemail harmless by all accounts, but
Speaker 1: what was discovered next would change everyone's life forever.
Speaker 6: Okay, okay, everyone's life forever. But wool even stand outside
Speaker 6: and like wave to you and ever it'll be fun.
Speaker 2: Look for me to hold you a little closer and
Speaker 2: a little bit longer some reason.
Speaker 1: The next day, they fully expected to hear Speedy live
Speaker 1: from Dublin, Georgia, but what they heard would haunt them forever.
Speaker 5: Do they know that you're supposed to go live? Because
Speaker 5: to them it will be what time?
Speaker 2: Six?
Speaker 5: At five am?
Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 1: right right, Greg, Wow, this is dumb.
Speaker 6: I love it.
Speaker 1: Patches, challenge coins and the bizarre obsession be sleds all
Speaker 1: innocent enough, all right, but what was at the heart
Speaker 1: of it? It was something much more sinister.
Speaker 5: You need to let them know you're going to be
Speaker 5: live with us the whole time.
Speaker 2: Now, I'm not going to be live the whole time
Speaker 2: if people start saying you're a bit with that. Okay,

Speaker 1: thought it was a roast beans, green beans. He was
Speaker 1: eating a good Southern meal and a good Southern meal. Nothing,
Speaker 1: nothing seemed out of the ordinary. But what we discovered

Speaker 5: Still, I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 2: Quiet, picture of this being us.
Speaker 4: Still silence, nothing, there's no I don't know if they're laughing.
Speaker 2: They haven't said a word. They're trying to like they're
Speaker 2: probably laughing and got their headphones. Can you edit that one?
Speaker 1: That one guy guys And again he's not in trouble
Speaker 1: so he shouldn't be. He just said a word wrong.
Speaker 1: He had no intent. It's funny what did consider what
Speaker 1: he was talking about that made it?
Speaker 6: Yesibility Pride Night, that's what it is brought in, right,
Speaker 6: Disability Pride.
Speaker 2: Now, let me get this right. So it's a disability Pride. Now,
Speaker 2: what's that mean?
Speaker 5: Disability Pride?
Speaker 2: I guess if you, I mean, if you got gay, no,
Speaker 2: let it, let's have it. Nobody help him? Is it disabled?
Speaker 2: Is it disabled? I'm gonna no, Greg, I don't think
Speaker 2: I think it is. It's not. I need to hear
Speaker 2: the read again to hear what's going on. There's the
Speaker 2: rainbows on it.
Speaker 5: That's thinking.
Speaker 2: It's just no, that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 5: It's not.
Speaker 2: Can wait play it?
Speaker 5: I don't think The.
Speaker 9: Disability Pride Night is Thursday, July tenth and with the
Speaker 9: themed ticket fans take on me Cardinals cat featuring the
Speaker 9: Disability Pride fag flag and Cardinals in detailed.
Speaker 2: The Cardinals embraille. I think, I think if you are
Speaker 2: disabled and lb G T that's what I think.
Speaker 1: I'm afraid there may be something here. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: that's it what. I don't think it's just people who
Speaker 1: have disabilities. It's gay people who have disabilities.
Speaker 2: I think that's what you hear what I say.
Speaker 5: No, I know, but I don't know if that's gay
Speaker 5: pride be I'm I'm proud of it. And then disability
Speaker 5: pride would be I'm disabled and proud of it.
Speaker 2: No, no, you're disabled and gay? That's what Are they
Speaker 2: covered though? That's what say. But what I'm saying is,
Speaker 2: but isn't that covered under the You would think it
Speaker 2: would be point.
Speaker 5: I'm just trying to tell you.
Speaker 2: I tell you were I didn't want to believe it.
Speaker 2: I just just but what I'm discussed this because that
Speaker 2: made it even funnier. No doubt about that, No doubt
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 1: But listen, I thought, but if you have disabilities or
Speaker 1: what and you and you are l G B t Q,
Speaker 1: aren't you under that canopy of the whole month?
Speaker 2: I think so we are we are reaching in.
Speaker 1: We're just are we reaching in and say we're gonna
Speaker 1: take one night and we're not just going to recognize
Speaker 1: people with disabilities only gay people with disabilities? Are you?
Speaker 2: Are you sure that's well? It was okay, it was
Speaker 2: fat pride now for fat people that are LGB No,
Speaker 2: I do think different. I do think everything in June
Speaker 2: goes back to that. Are you sure?
Speaker 8: So?
Speaker 2: If not, it would be disability awareness not I'll tell
Speaker 2: you what.
Speaker 6: You do.
Speaker 5: You have fat pride, and that's fat people that are
Speaker 5: proud of it.
Speaker 2: No, that's not what it is.
Speaker 5: And then you've got gay pride.
Speaker 1: Is one thing I wonder instead of like a bable
Speaker 1: you get that. You're saying that anything you're social with
Speaker 1: pride in June they take Yes, I think so.
Speaker 2: I think so.
Speaker 6: The fact that it's in June, July July, it's July
Speaker 6: July is disability pride.
Speaker 10: But just show.
Speaker 2: So, all right, Greg, I was wrong, Greg, let's clarify.
Speaker 11: Greg.
Speaker 2: The message wasn't clear. Greg, You're there's no such okay,
Speaker 2: there ether? Are you going to survive this? Okay?
Speaker 9: I was wrong.
Speaker 5: Pr We're now laughing.
Speaker 2: Okay, we're all hurting. Greg, you really doubled down to.
Speaker 8: Me.
Speaker 2: I missed the month they were talking about. I didn't
Speaker 2: know they were talking about July. I know that John
Speaker 2: that changed his everything. It's confused.
Speaker 5: Let me something you hear.
Speaker 1: There was rainbow colors on the thing. I know, Greg,
Speaker 1: guy's gonna say that. Actually in pink it said. Okay,
Speaker 1: I was wrong, but and I didn't mean to. But
Speaker 1: I drug all y'all with me, and I think I
Speaker 1: was so convinced.
Speaker 2: You know why I was.
Speaker 1: I really thought, let me say something let me tell
Speaker 1: you something, Greg, out there, you died on that gay
Speaker 1: disability heill and couldn't eveybody get you.
Speaker 2: Off of it? And and it was in July.
Speaker 1: But even in July, Greg was still clinging by pointing
Speaker 1: to confusing logos, and they are confusing. Yes, if I
Speaker 1: could tell the disability bunch all this different colors for
Speaker 1: different disabilities, you basically have created a rainbow.
Speaker 2: And let's stay away from the color pink. Well, I
Speaker 2: missed there. Now I'm looking read. Now I'm looking at
Speaker 2: the read. It doesn't say July tenth any bigger than
Speaker 2: it does. I mean, it's huge. I don't know it.
Speaker 10: Was great.
Speaker 2: You can see how that can be confusing admitting now
Speaker 2: that I was in correct. So it's a faded out
Speaker 2: rainbow kind of is what it looks.
Speaker 5: Disability pride what.
Speaker 2: This moment, this moment, I actually have a flag like that.
Speaker 2: That's walking. Greg.
Speaker 5: You need to clarify what you said and what's actually true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm let's not be in disrespectful. This is
Speaker 2: just what I thought.
Speaker 1: I thought that it was Pride Day for disabled people
Speaker 1: that are remember of the l g by QP lment op.
Speaker 2: No. I don't remember upsetting people.
Speaker 1: Now, Okay, of that community, Let's say I and I
Speaker 1: thought that, I mean, we got all kinds of days.
Speaker 1: I thought it might have been in now I thought
Speaker 1: that we were missing. But what it was that the
Speaker 1: flags are very the same, a lot of rainbow.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The fact that you thought that category was possible, well,
Speaker 2: you're right.
Speaker 5: I thought it was that too. For a second, Greg,
Speaker 5: you even convinced me.
Speaker 2: But it was guy, you're convinced. I'm rarely wrong.
Speaker 8: So what was it?
Speaker 2: And what what did you think it was? What do
Speaker 2: you think it was? I told you what I thought it. Greg,
Speaker 2: I want you to clari for what it is. Though.
Speaker 2: It is about disabled a disability pride yes speed because
Speaker 2: in July and I didn't know that either. And plus
Speaker 2: I didn't know what to day's date was, okay, and
Speaker 2: of course what speedy calls diabetes pride yes okay, And
Speaker 2: now the misspeak didn't help any That.
Speaker 5: To the confusion got me.
Speaker 2: Thank you, alcohol. I was down. I thought it was
Speaker 2: a Freudian slip.
Speaker 5: And things have gotten so confusing. We're really just trying
Speaker 5: to figure it all out. This is real time. I
Speaker 5: wasn't trying to lives.
Speaker 2: That's just the way it looked to me. And they're
Speaker 2: looking and for everybody. I don't want the emails. I apologize.
Speaker 2: You are just like a skip carry or whatever his
Speaker 2: name is. Yes, I can't imagine that thirty seconds. I
Speaker 2: can't silent what they were doing. I can't figure which
Speaker 2: one Greg will get most that he what what group?
Speaker 1: Do you think what he's done is I got to
Speaker 1: after minute? Unfortunately he's in. He's now got to two
Speaker 1: groups after him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh my gosh, Half Pride not just getting Now
Speaker 4: to our defense, we didn't create the confusion. The confusion
Speaker 4: was there and we were trying to figure it out. Now,
Speaker 4: we probably should have paid attention day because that's they
Speaker 4: say that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that completely the fourth of July.
Speaker 1: If we off, if we ever stopped shooting from the
Speaker 1: hip though, this show will cease to be entertaining.
Speaker 2: I thought they were going to get bibble heads that night.
Speaker 2: Look you not hear me right? Half that half I
Speaker 2: didn't listen to nothing. I got me. That was not
Speaker 2: before y'all credit me with that. That was I'm just saying,
Speaker 2: that's how confusing it was.
Speaker 6: I was waking confused and with it we call it
Speaker 6: Pride months. We call it Pride month. We thought we
Speaker 6: thought the word pride.
Speaker 2: I did feel dirt hitting us as we record and
Speaker 2: edit things out.
Speaker 5: We're live, We're just we're just.
Speaker 2: Trying to figure it. And I wasn't trying to be funny.
Speaker 1: I really thought I was right, But now looking back
Speaker 1: on it, that even in today's world, that would.
Speaker 2: Be I disagree with that. I disagree with that. That's
Speaker 2: the only thing I disagree with anything. I think right now.
Speaker 2: You can't take anything off the table.
Speaker 1: Now you might want to get it right and check
Speaker 1: your dates, but I'm saying you can't get you can't
Speaker 1: take anything off.
Speaker 2: And I'm almost to be honest to here. I'm looking
Speaker 2: at this breakdown of the disabailed Pride flag. It's to work.
Speaker 2: It's confusing, right, some of.
Speaker 6: It right, because there's red, yellow, blue, green, black, all
Speaker 6: representing different types of.
Speaker 5: But the white y'all the white. Greg makes a great point.
Speaker 2: Seeing that we're doing Rainbow Omega in August. Nothing we
Speaker 2: got that, we got a lot d It has nothing to.
Speaker 6: Do with them, well, but the white on the their
Speaker 6: flight their thing says invisible.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what is that? I would like?
Speaker 5: What's an invisibility.
Speaker 1: Everybody here has got that one invisible and undiagnosed.
Speaker 2: Cay, put your finger on it. But some's not right.
Speaker 2: If it's and you haven't been diagnosed with it, how
Speaker 2: do you know you?
Speaker 3: I would like to move on.
Speaker 5: Just correct.
Speaker 2: I was back to you took that through that right
Speaker 2: in the middle of everything. Well I did. I wouldn't
Speaker 2: have because that's normally what they do. They give you
Speaker 2: know who was in he's got I think.
Speaker 1: I think the fires out of hand, gasoline holding person
Speaker 1: you're not helping.
Speaker 2: Well, I didn't know, but now that I know, I'm
Speaker 2: I'm so terribly sorry.
Speaker 1: Okay, was just they were singling out a certain community, Greg,
Speaker 1: So you have now made sure that you've cleared it
Speaker 1: up and you were passionately wrong.
Speaker 2: Yes, and but we see where the confusion came from. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I didn't realize that so that close. But now
Speaker 2: I get it. I get the whole thing too.
Speaker 6: And in the spirit of us learning the ADA, the
Speaker 6: Americans with Disabilities Act was signed in the law in July.
Speaker 5: Nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2: Okay, got it. And that's straight people too. Yeah, disabilities.
Speaker 2: Doesn't you have to go back to the deaf college.
Speaker 5: And how all that started coastal Carolina? Was that a
Speaker 5: coast of Carolina thing?
Speaker 2: No, we played that last week.
Speaker 5: Remember, Oh yeah, deaf President now or something.
