Speaker 1: Hey, it's speedy, and this is Rick and Bubba's Greatest tits,
Speaker 1: flashing back through thirty one years of Radio Gold every
Speaker 1: Saturday morning, wherever you get your podcast, it's Rick and
Speaker 1: Bubba's Greatest tits.
Speaker 2: Ricking Bubba, Ricking Bubba.
Speaker 3: Before we move on this Laura Spencer thing we just did,
Speaker 3: I just think it's important to note in this to
Speaker 3: see how our society has running aground here to what
Speaker 3: I call American values. She was making fun and made
Speaker 3: a little passing comment and it was funny, but you
Speaker 3: have to look at the context that it was in,
Speaker 3: and that's something we just absolutely just run right over nowadays.
Speaker 3: She was talking about a six year old. She was
Speaker 3: also listing the other classes he was having to take,
Speaker 3: mass science, all this stuff, when usually, if you remember
Speaker 3: first grade, we tried to make her letters. That was
Speaker 3: about it, you know, I mean, it was very base,
Speaker 3: and she's she's kind of making a joke about what
Speaker 3: he's having to go through now in school versus just
Speaker 3: playing with playto and she did. I'm not saying she
Speaker 3: didn't make fun of ballet, but in the whole context,
Speaker 3: it was a bigger It was a bigger statement on
Speaker 3: look at what they're putting this little guy through. That
Speaker 3: he might just want to go back and play with Plato.
Speaker 3: And she even mentioned that at the very end. You
Speaker 3: can hardly hear it under the ruckus of what's going
Speaker 3: on laughing. Yeah, even if she makes fun of ballet, Okay,
Speaker 3: she's entitled to do that. She can make a joke,
Speaker 3: she can she can have poke fun at it. That's
Speaker 3: that's what we do in America. We always poke fun
Speaker 3: at things. But then the flip side of this is
Speaker 3: not them poking fun at her. They go after her,
Speaker 3: They go after her job. I mean, she was threatened
Speaker 3: and had to go out there and apologize. You know,
Speaker 3: that's true bullying. She didn't bully And I'm not saying
Speaker 3: that some people who haven't been in dance class haven't
Speaker 3: been bullied, But Laura Spencer didn't bully you, but you
Speaker 3: did bully her. Yeah, and see now she can't even
Speaker 3: have the freedom of free speech to make a joke
Speaker 3: or whatever. I think. I think it was totally unfair
Speaker 3: the way she was traded in this.
Speaker 1: Well, what if you you honestly, I truly believe this
Speaker 1: that if she had let's say that what she was
Speaker 1: reading that ballet was not even in it. If she
Speaker 1: had said, here's what little Prince George is going to
Speaker 1: be doing, including classes for him to be trained in
Speaker 1: classic piano. He's going to learn the classics. You know,
Speaker 1: that would be something the royal family would want him
Speaker 1: to be exposed to. And she says, when Prince, which
Speaker 1: one is this, Prince Harry.
Speaker 3: William.
Speaker 1: Prince William said, he actually is enjoying being introduced to
Speaker 1: classical piano. And then she would have said, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you one thing, good luck with that. I'm know how
Speaker 1: long that's going to last. He probably wants to get
Speaker 1: back and play with playto That's what she was doing.
Speaker 1: She was saying, this is a royal education and including
Speaker 1: the fine arts, including all of this. He's a first grader.
Speaker 1: Very few of us were exposed to Bubba's point to
Speaker 1: the fine arts when we were in first grade. But
Speaker 1: the royals are going to want him to have this,
Speaker 1: you know, all of these things, and he has access
Speaker 1: to all these tutors and all these things. She's making
Speaker 1: a point about what it's like to be a royal
Speaker 1: and be a little kid versus, hey, I just want
Speaker 1: to be a little boy and play with play that, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: and in anybody but busy schedule. But we've got to
Speaker 1: the point that Bubba's making as well. We've gotten in
Speaker 1: our society this gotcha mentality. And again, no longer do
Speaker 1: we chuckle and say, well, look, well, I know what
Speaker 1: I had to go through when I felt called to
Speaker 1: be a ballet and to be a ballet dancer. And
Speaker 1: if they knew how much hard work that is and
Speaker 1: what athletic ability it takes to actually do that, you know,
Speaker 1: ha ha ha, and then you would move on. But
Speaker 1: now it's like everybody gets up and says, is anybody
Speaker 1: said anything today that I can be really mad about
Speaker 1: and want to kill them over? I mean, like you said,
Speaker 1: and they go after you like like you've done the
Speaker 1: worst thing on the planet as opposed to and then
Speaker 1: and then here's the thing you'll love the most is
Speaker 1: they'll be the very people. They'll be the very people
Speaker 1: that will pretend that we should be kinder to each other. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's my favorite part, right, is that these are the
Speaker 1: people that that that that that are consciously saying that
Speaker 1: they want us to live in a society that we
Speaker 1: loathe meanness. But there's some of the meanest people you've
Speaker 1: ever encountered in your life.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if they had wanted to respond to her saying, hey,
Speaker 3: you know, I'm I'm unhappy. I think you were unfair.
Speaker 3: You were making fun of something I love find. Send
Speaker 3: her an email, call her a bubble headed, bleach blonde
Speaker 3: that comes on at five. You know all that stuff
Speaker 3: that's fair. Uh, but this this thing of this, you know,
Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna get on social media and we're
Speaker 3: gonna get everybody torqued up, and we're gonna go out
Speaker 3: here and cause all these problems. She was bullied in this,
Speaker 3: they owe her an apology.
Speaker 4: Right, And let's look at real quick at or take
Speaker 4: the Rick and Bubba off, and I want you to
Speaker 4: see see what Look what ABC has underneath her curriculum, curriculum, curriculum, curriculum.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, looks more like a program.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks more like college.
Speaker 4: I mean, but that's what she's trying to say. She's
Speaker 4: saying curriculum. Oh my gosh, that's my word. Curriculum, that's
Speaker 4: my word, saying speedy, curriculum.
Speaker 1: Curriculums, curriculum, curriculum, curriculum, curriculum, curriculum. Hey, move out out
Speaker 1: of the way, Move out out of the way where
Speaker 1: I can read curriculum. But we've all been curriculum. I
Speaker 1: got nothing to say.
Speaker 3: Quiet trying to.
Speaker 1: Say it again, curriculum, curriculum. You know what, here's jala.
Speaker 3: You know how I'm an s adder.
Speaker 1: You're a syllable at curriculum, curriculum, curriculum Again, he's gonna say, curriculum, curriculum.
Speaker 1: There you go, curriculum, curriculum. No, no, no, that's still
Speaker 1: not it. Do it again, curriculum, curriculum.
Speaker 3: Now I think you're doing it on first.
Speaker 1: It's sad, but I'm not gonna say anything because in
Speaker 1: the next segment I'll be locked up on something, you know,
Speaker 1: and curriculum.
Speaker 4: Hey, take the ricking bubble thing off.
Speaker 1: I know I really had it, but curriculum, curriculums to stop.
Speaker 3: Lady, that's that's break it down.
Speaker 1: Got Can I tell you? Can I tell you? Hey, listen,
Speaker 1: Can I tell you why? Can I tell you why
Speaker 1: I want you to stop it? I got it here? Curriculum. Yeah,
Speaker 1: can I tell why I want you to stop? Because
Speaker 1: in a minute there's gonna be people protesting out here
Speaker 1: who need to take speech therapy. I start laughing really hard. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: so so anyway, certainly something I needed. But but but
Speaker 1: to the bigger point curriculum what you were saying, Like
Speaker 1: you said, Bubba, if you want to have fun with it,
Speaker 1: you come back and say, yeah, I noticed it. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, Laura was making fun of the curriculum. Uh
Speaker 1: and uh and the the academics and the exposing to
Speaker 1: fine arts of little Prince George. Yes, she's right.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, he could ignore all that and end up,
Speaker 1: you know, doing a TV show about yard sales. That
Speaker 1: would be funny. Yeah, you see, that's funny. Now you
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't know about that. That's why you go out
Speaker 1: and do stand ups near yard sales. They'd be funny. Yeah,
Speaker 1: uh so uh so anyway, but but no, but now
Speaker 1: we have to we have to turn it into like she's.
Speaker 3: Really if you if you want to show that you're
Speaker 3: tough too, being a ballet person, you did. This is
Speaker 3: not the way to respond, right. You responded to it
Speaker 3: like your hypersensitive, which is part of the stereotype that
Speaker 3: goes with that. You acted exactly, You did exactly what
Speaker 3: you should not have done to build that stereotype even stronger.
Speaker 1: You pitched, You pitched the hissy fil you did, you
Speaker 1: did so, and that's not good. That's not helping. And
Speaker 1: what we should do is we were saying in the break,
Speaker 1: we must prepare our children and we must prepare ourselves.
Speaker 1: If your mom and daddy didn't do it for you,
Speaker 1: you better be prepared to function in the world the
Speaker 1: way it is, not the way you wished it was.
Speaker 1: You better be prepared for how it really is not
Speaker 1: how you wished it was. Utopia does not exist. So
Speaker 1: if you're gonna be a man and you're gonna get
Speaker 1: into ballet, you're gonna have to toughen up. Okay, that's it.
Speaker 1: Just like we talked about, you know when we started.
Speaker 1: You know the people who are in you know, marriages
Speaker 1: and relationships that you know have people of two different races.
Speaker 1: I've heard people say before, look, society should not see
Speaker 1: this as any problem. And people who said there's a
Speaker 1: biblical problem, they're just biblically wrong. However, you need to
Speaker 1: prepare for how the world really is not the way
Speaker 1: it should be. And so no matter what you do,
Speaker 1: if you decide to do something in a society, you
Speaker 1: better understand what you're getting into when you say this
Speaker 1: is who I am and this is what I'm going
Speaker 1: to do. But you got to know what you're getting
Speaker 1: into and to try to go out and make the
Speaker 1: world not be the way it really is. It's not
Speaker 1: preparing the person for actually being able to persevere through
Speaker 1: what they need to persevere through to become who they
Speaker 1: feel called to be. And one thing, thank you very much.
Speaker 1: And by now, this is silly what we're watching right now.
Speaker 1: I mean, can you really look at the way they've
Speaker 1: behaved and say, well, I was wrong. I shouldn't have
Speaker 1: made a comment like that. Fourteen minutes to the top
Speaker 1: of the hour, eight six six we be big as
Speaker 1: the number more than Rick and Bubba show coming up
Speaker 1: right after this.
Speaker 2: Ricking Bubba Rick and Bubba.
Speaker 5: Warning this program may be found offensive by pencil pushing,
Speaker 5: bean counting, research loving program directors and radio consultant Gools.
Speaker 5: Welcome to the Rick and Bubba Experience.
Speaker 6: Two conservative, heterosexual, gun toting, football loving evangelical Christian white men,
Speaker 6: in other words, the two most dangerous men in America.
Speaker 1: Rick at Buba six minutes now past the hour.
Speaker 2: Why not answer.
Speaker 3: Speedy?
Speaker 1: The real Greg Burgess, Helmsey and Eddie Van Adler all
Speaker 1: here as Team Rick and Bubba takes the field for
Speaker 1: another hour. Rick and Bubba University student Hash Brown hero
Speaker 1: working on that degree in common sense which has now
Speaker 1: been deemed a super power. Jim, welcome back for a
Speaker 1: brand new hour, rocking Mike number two for twenty five
Speaker 1: solid years, mister Bill.
Speaker 3: Bubba bus Rick glad to be here and thank all
Speaker 3: of you for being part of the Rick and Bubba experience.
Speaker 1: We're talking about Bubba's trip yesterday. He was honored to
Speaker 1: go up and visit the Marshall Space Flight Center, and
Speaker 1: you gave us a little bit to last hour, a
Speaker 1: little bit of an update, and you had one something
Speaker 1: else you want to cover.
Speaker 3: Well, just quickly, the space launch system that will be
Speaker 3: coming online. They hope to actually fly next year. And
Speaker 3: you know, when you're designing a new system from the
Speaker 3: ground up, you know it takes a little time and
Speaker 3: there's going to be a few problems along the way.
Speaker 3: And the joke I told yesterday was the fact that
Speaker 3: they're trying to get it up by twenty twenty flying
Speaker 3: I said, well, December's a long months. Don't forget that.
Speaker 3: It is so we may have one heck of a
Speaker 3: New Year's Eve party in twenty twenty when they try
Speaker 3: to get this thing going by that before.
Speaker 1: We go, where we go and where's it? There's testing
Speaker 1: it where were This.
Speaker 3: Will be part of hopefully a platform that NASA will
Speaker 3: be able to use for a long period of time
Speaker 3: getting into space.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: I think kind of the the operation of it all.
Speaker 3: They didn't say this yesterday, but it kind of looks
Speaker 3: like the low orbit stuff is what we're gonna you know,
Speaker 3: we're gonna basically hire that out to SpaceX and Blue
Speaker 3: Origins and you know, all that kind of stuff, and
Speaker 3: NASA concentrate more on the long big picture of going
Speaker 3: to the Moon again, establishing a base there, going on
Speaker 3: to Mars, and you know the technology that will be
Speaker 3: generated from that, you know, transferring that into the private
Speaker 3: sector like they've done before. But just a little idea
Speaker 3: that the SRS the s l S system, to give
Speaker 3: you an idea. It's just it's a little bit shorter
Speaker 3: than the mighty Saturn five rocket we had. The Saturn
Speaker 3: five was three hundred and sixty three foot. The s
Speaker 3: l S is gonna be three hundred and twenty two
Speaker 3: foot But listen to these numbers on what it can lift.
Speaker 3: The Saturn five generated seven point five million pounds of thrust. Okay,
Speaker 3: the Space Shuttle generated seven point eight million pounds of thrust.
Speaker 3: The SLS system will be able to generate eight point
Speaker 3: eight million pounds of thrust in its final configuration. So
Speaker 3: it's gonna be the strongest rocket we've ever had. And
Speaker 3: what that means for us, it'll really be cool to
Speaker 3: see it take off. That's the bottom line us. So
Speaker 3: we got to get down to a lunch when they
Speaker 3: get this thing going, no doubt.
Speaker 1: All right, I want you to hear me out. And
Speaker 1: I realize now that you've said it, it may not
Speaker 1: these may not be the people we need to talk to.
Speaker 1: It may be these other the other bunch you mentioned
Speaker 1: you SpaceX is and your Blue Origins and all them.
Speaker 1: For our twenty fifth anniversary. You have any idea where
Speaker 1: the fun Mobile is?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 1: Could we find it? If we could go get it?
Speaker 1: I think Maples too big, But could we go find
Speaker 1: the fund Mobile? Do we know where it is? Whatever
Speaker 1: happened to it? Because I want to launch it into
Speaker 1: orbit right.
Speaker 3: Like SpaceX did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's yeah. For the twenty fifth anniversary. This thing
Speaker 1: starts orbiting. But that sounds like that's gonna be That's
Speaker 1: not gonna be them. They said all that. They're kind
Speaker 1: of contracting out, aren't they.
Speaker 3: Yes, we might have to get with SpaceX or Blue
Speaker 3: Origins on that SpaceX probably Bowie. They're doing some stuff too,
Speaker 3: so United lunch.
Speaker 1: Should I ask Bones? Bones probably knows where it is,
Speaker 1: doesn't it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, Rick, it was your van. I
Speaker 3: don't know whatever happened to You were probably the one
Speaker 3: that had to trade to work on it.
Speaker 8: You lose a van.
Speaker 1: They took it back. Lau was a van, remember, somebody
Speaker 1: saw it on the other side of the fence and
Speaker 1: like some abandoned little I don't even know when was
Speaker 1: the moment we decided we were done with it. I
Speaker 1: didn't move anymore. I don't know what happened to it.
Speaker 3: Did you do something with it after map that came online?
Speaker 1: Or what? Did Did I get fifteen hundred bucks for
Speaker 1: it or something? I don't I don't know what happened.
Speaker 1: But did you ever get a reverse in it? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was that that we did a deal there where
Speaker 1: we would we trade years. It didn't have a reverse.
Speaker 1: We traded some of that out. The deal was, we'll
Speaker 1: make it the Station Van if y'all can give me reverse, right,
Speaker 1: So so the station got somebody to put reverse back
Speaker 1: in it. You know, I don't know if we launched
Speaker 1: people into space, we know where that is. Oh hey,
Speaker 1: I like it, Like I do that we solve a
Speaker 1: lot of problems.
Speaker 3: We might could get Big Boy on the Pegasus rocket
Speaker 3: now you know that's the one they dropped from that
Speaker 3: from the plane and launch it out.
Speaker 1: My only my only issue with Big Boys a different one.
Speaker 1: Our only issue with the Big Boy is you can
Speaker 1: see Big Boy and it not automatically mean ricking bubble
Speaker 1: uh huh uh the fun Mobile. I mean there's our logo. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean every time you look at it has ricking bubba.
Speaker 2: Well logo.
Speaker 3: We know a vehicle can be launched into space. I
Speaker 3: mean you know they did that.
Speaker 1: That's why that's what maybe think about this. It is
Speaker 1: the old logo. But what was the old old logo?
Speaker 1: What was in the background the Earth? Oh that's right,
Speaker 1: it was remember that I had the big tower behind it.
Speaker 1: Look at him. I mean to tell you who that
Speaker 1: would be cool?
Speaker 3: Did we get that animation that way.
Speaker 1: Look, that would be cool out there, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: But you could almost see that and everybody starts taking
Speaker 1: a claim to it.
Speaker 8: We can put a ricking Bubba logo on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now if I'm open for that.
Speaker 3: Where is the wol Fund Mobile?
Speaker 1: That's a good question, Bones.
Speaker 3: Because you had the title to it, you had to
Speaker 3: sign it over to somebody.
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened to it. I really don't.
Speaker 1: I got I got to tell you guys.
Speaker 3: We we the lovels Assault Broadcast vehicles too big by
Speaker 3: the way, I went to take park it and forgot
Speaker 3: about it.
Speaker 1: I took a look at it last the boy does it?
Speaker 1: Maybe it was on my birthday?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I drove by the the other day.
Speaker 1: Boy, it's it's not people written their stuff written all
Speaker 1: over it.
Speaker 3: Used it a long time, I know.
Speaker 1: Bones asked me some questions about generators. I don't know
Speaker 1: what's saying. I'm texting Bones. Do you know where the
Speaker 1: fund mobile is? The Funmobile? Do we have any pictures
Speaker 1: that we can find quick? The Funmobile? If you want
Speaker 1: to look back on the twenty five year memory.
Speaker 3: I just got some the other day. So they sent
Speaker 3: me about.
Speaker 1: It the fund Mobile. Let me tell you what the
Speaker 1: Funmobile was about. For those of you who don't know. So,
Speaker 1: I had a van. It was your classic. You remember
Speaker 1: that they were selling them about the Rose. They weren't.
Speaker 1: They weren't a great vehicle, let's just be honest. But
Speaker 1: but so it was. It was. It was the van
Speaker 1: that I got when I started having a bunch of kids,
Speaker 1: and so I got I got the van because it
Speaker 1: also was used for us to travel to go to
Speaker 1: places and do things. I'm talking it just as a
Speaker 1: staff as well. We needed something that had more seats
Speaker 1: in it. So when Bubba and I first started launching
Speaker 1: the show, we would just put shoe polish on Bubba's jeep.
Speaker 3: Chero key, right, there's a red jeep cherry and we.
Speaker 1: Would just take shoe polish and put Rick and Bubba
Speaker 1: on it and all that. So so and then then
Speaker 1: any station that we worked for, you know, their vans
Speaker 1: were always just in terrible shape, and so we had
Speaker 1: one that had the you know, the station logo on it.
Speaker 1: But we thought we need a Rick and Bubba only van. Yep.
Speaker 1: So I did all right here, yeah it is is now,
Speaker 1: this is not the finished product. This is it in
Speaker 1: one of its stages. That's where the Chechen Chong horns
Speaker 1: got on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we put giant horns on the top and had
Speaker 3: lights on it.
Speaker 1: This this was the van after it was painted and
Speaker 1: reverse was put in it, and it had Rick and
Speaker 1: Bubba fun Mobile on each side. And if you know
Speaker 1: it's right here, go speed Racer go, because that was
Speaker 1: if Speedy wanted to take it out and do something
Speaker 1: on location. And I think the back window had that
Speaker 1: logo that Speedy's talking about on the very back window.
Speaker 3: The globe with the microphone.
Speaker 1: But we took this thing to the next level and
Speaker 1: had two gigantic horns put on it. When I say horns,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about your speakers like you'd have at a
Speaker 1: football game, those that sit up on the pole, and
Speaker 1: we had those put on the toe. We had those
Speaker 1: put up on We had those put on the top,
Speaker 1: and we had an intercom, an intercom and pa that
Speaker 1: had sirens, It had lights, It had everything you could
Speaker 1: think of on the inside of it. And this thing
Speaker 1: it was legendary in parades and things like that. It
Speaker 1: was just it really served us well, it didn't it. Huh.
Speaker 1: And you're thinking about what I used to do to
Speaker 1: the parades, aren't you I near Greg greg Our parade
Speaker 1: humor that just used to slay Bubba so well.
Speaker 3: I couldn't get on the mic. I would get to laughing,
Speaker 3: so I couldn't do it. You know, it's nothing worse
Speaker 3: than somebody trying to do a PA joke and start
Speaker 3: laughing in the middle of.
Speaker 1: So what bubb and I would do. We would take
Speaker 1: the funnel bill to a parade and they would have
Speaker 1: us where we're supposed to be in line. You know
Speaker 1: this is before I did this, Before this, before my
Speaker 1: parade tank ran out, I couldn't do parade. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is back I still.
Speaker 3: Love many years ago. Yeah, I'm gonna go to one.
Speaker 1: Two things I can't do anymore. Parades and car lot remotes.
Speaker 1: I can't do either one. So so anyway, so we
Speaker 1: I would get on the PA as if I was
Speaker 1: the parade coordinator, and let's say, let's just grab at random,
Speaker 1: say we were competing with Magic ninety six, Okay, another
Speaker 1: radio station, whatever, and I look, it's looks down because
Speaker 1: he loved it, because I had the tone and everything
Speaker 1: that and so I would get on the PA. Now
Speaker 1: they'd be station vans in the Christmas Parade distric as
Speaker 1: far as you can see, and I would go, ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen with someone from Magic ninety six, Magic ninety six,
Speaker 1: please report to the parade coordinator. Now keep mint. That's
Speaker 1: a real general statement. Nobody knows who that is.
Speaker 3: And you would watch and we we already had, we
Speaker 3: had who we were talking about.
Speaker 1: And they would just start scattering around trying to find
Speaker 1: the prey coordinator.
Speaker 3: And you could see them the confusion, people running, uh
Speaker 3: you know, people getting on phones and we're laughing so
Speaker 3: hard and cannot breathe every now and now what you
Speaker 3: you think that the people might go? Where did that
Speaker 3: come from?
Speaker 1: Where did that voice?
Speaker 3: So that it was supposed to be used for good?
Speaker 1: But we would use it, and so it was.
Speaker 3: It was used for good. It was fun.
Speaker 1: You remember what I would tell everybody on horseback to
Speaker 1: report to the horses. Just start going everywhere. If you
Speaker 1: were on horseback, please move to the front of the prey.
Speaker 3: Greg you have everybody lined up all I would be
Speaker 3: crying like I am right now, just thinking about.
Speaker 1: Santa Claus. Santa please report to the prey for.
Speaker 3: The panic on where the parak coordinator was.
Speaker 1: Instance, We'll be right back more ricking Bubby next, Ricking Bubba,
Speaker 1: ricking Bubba, ricking.
Speaker 3: Bubba, Bubba, pass the grieve it please, faking bubb Oh.
Speaker 8: It brings me to my knees.
Speaker 1: Twenty two minutes past the hour. All right, So it's
Speaker 1: our our twenty fifth anniversary, and we're doing a lot
Speaker 1: of reminiscing and flashbacks and trying to remember things of
Speaker 1: the past, waking all that bla by. All right, So
Speaker 1: today's topic the Rick and Bubba funnel bile. We showed
Speaker 1: you some pictures of it on YouTube. Bubba, look at
Speaker 1: us at the pet rally. Here's a picture of Bubba
Speaker 1: and I. This is the Rick and Bubba pet Rally tour.
Speaker 1: Both of us much thinner than uh and I never
Speaker 1: knew we were that then? Is that just an optical illusion?
Speaker 1: The way that the way they caught us, Because I
Speaker 1: think they're catching us in the middle of dancing.
Speaker 3: I didn't feel. Yeah, I think we're singing fat fat
Speaker 3: guys are but uh wow, I would love to be
Speaker 3: that fat now.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah? So we uh so, all right, so
Speaker 1: here's what we think you know. And I'm going to
Speaker 1: tell you something we we we closed, we had closure
Speaker 1: with the Fumbobil. I just don't remember what that closure was.
Speaker 1: So Bones is saying, the reason why I'm talking to
Speaker 1: Bones is Bones, you know, drove the Mobile Salt broadcast
Speaker 1: vehicle and took care of all ricking bubble vehicles for
Speaker 1: a while and still does. We just don't use the
Speaker 1: Mobile Salt Broadcast vehicle anymore to any degree. So uh
Speaker 1: but but that's why Bones was kind of brought on board,
Speaker 1: because you know, he had the commercial driver's license and
Speaker 1: knew how to do all this. So this was the
Speaker 1: fumble bill. The only picture we can find of it,
Speaker 1: find of it now we know the fummobile and the
Speaker 1: picture we're looking at now on YouTube had one more
Speaker 1: upgrade even after this. That's when the whole b A
Speaker 1: system and the light getting the lights on that thing.
Speaker 1: All right, So the greatest day ever, all right. Bones
Speaker 1: is now saying, he said, I remember it when I
Speaker 1: first started working with you guys. I think it was
Speaker 1: taken to a salvage yard. Yeah, that's shortly after I started,
Speaker 1: he said, I started with you guys in two thousand
Speaker 1: and one. That's the first time Bone said he started
Speaker 1: doing anything for us. And he said we had it then,
Speaker 1: but he thinks we sent it to a salvage yard.
Speaker 1: I think he's right gone. I just don't know where
Speaker 1: that is now. See, I remember we were saving it
Speaker 1: for the museum. Now how am I gonna? We can't
Speaker 1: put it in the museum now? No, if it's been salvaged.
Speaker 3: Well, what was the singing group where they found their
Speaker 3: van out in the woods not too long ago, Aerosmith
Speaker 3: when they started. So it'll be one of those kind
Speaker 3: of deals. Somebody will find it when we're out in
Speaker 3: the woods.
Speaker 1: Here's some of the legend court. Well, I tell you
Speaker 1: what now, let me tell you what's funny.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, let me tell you we're squashed into
Speaker 3: a little box.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what's hilarious is when you know,
Speaker 1: when we when we had you know, and there's no
Speaker 1: success story that doesn't have failures. And Ricky Bubby the
Speaker 1: restaurant was a failure for us as far as you know,
Speaker 1: by world standards, even though I want to believe it
Speaker 1: changed lives.
Speaker 4: But anyway, they and stopped, you know, the red Ricking
Speaker 4: Bubby specialist staff shirts that we had. We I guess
Speaker 4: j C found one in the move and actually wore at.
Speaker 1: The school one day. That's slaying me right there. But
Speaker 1: but from my current Yeah, but going back back, I
Speaker 1: had somebody tell me the other day, Bubba our slogan
Speaker 1: hungry question mark not anymore, slay them. All of it
Speaker 1: we had was fantastic. But but anyway, so for my goodness,
Speaker 1: So anyway, so one.
Speaker 3: In four whiles distracted, going back and forth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but but you remember when we we had the
Speaker 1: we we had our mobile kitchen, so we had the
Speaker 1: mobile kill the mobile kitchen too much. But what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about is what you're talking about. You remember, people
Speaker 1: would call us in and say, I just saw the
Speaker 1: mobile kitchen in Pensacola. So when we start, when we
Speaker 1: get where we're not using things anymore, that there's no
Speaker 1: telling where they end up.
Speaker 4: We've actually had people say they got a Rick and
Speaker 4: Bubba restaurant cup like in New York.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, our threat vendors, yeah, street vendors everywhere have
Speaker 1: Rick and Bubba stuff that because they what happens is
Speaker 1: the people who got stuck with all that they sell
Speaker 1: it off to other restaurants. They just want cups and
Speaker 1: napkins and all those things of seanpeverwere the beating fries
Speaker 1: out of our Rick and Bubba fry holders?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: Look, Rick and Bubba the restaurant was a blast.
Speaker 9: It was.
Speaker 1: But anyway, so when when when we moved through these
Speaker 1: eras of history, especially involving equipment, it can end up anywhere. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and es.
Speaker 3: Eventually you know, you dispose of everything.
Speaker 1: It has a run and right, and this show always delivers, okay,
Speaker 1: And it may be later this afternoon when somebody hears
Speaker 1: it on a replay or they go back list to it.
Speaker 1: If you can document for us, you know that maybe
Speaker 1: your company salvage the Rick and Bubba fun moobile did
Speaker 1: did you did you ever lay hands on the fumbobile
Speaker 1: and say, I'll tell you exactly what happened to it? Now?
Speaker 1: We should remember it, but we just can't. Okay, it's
Speaker 1: wrong with us. Well, it's a lot like I said,
Speaker 1: Remember I said on the show Monday when I told
Speaker 1: people you can't come up to us. A matter of fact,
Speaker 1: I want to do some phone sevment today. See if
Speaker 1: you like this idea, we could even do it next
Speaker 1: you call up and ask the question, hey, Rick and Bubba,
Speaker 1: which means all of us do y'all remember blank and
Speaker 1: we either tell you yes, we remember, we sort of
Speaker 1: remember our no recollect now it is it a time
Speaker 1: that something happened on the show or when they met
Speaker 1: one of us? Anything? Do you remember this moment? And
Speaker 1: it could be something on the show, could be us,
Speaker 1: you know, could be out us playing on location. It
Speaker 1: could be the fumble Bill, a pep rally tour, y'all
Speaker 1: came and I remember one vividly on that one when
Speaker 1: Bubba and I had kind of a stressful day.
Speaker 3: Rick, are you talking about a Rick and Bubba?
Speaker 1: Hey, do you remember?
Speaker 3: But it's it's kind of a stumped band. No, no, exactly,
Speaker 3: That's exactly what.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. This is bringing back stuff, all right.
Speaker 4: The Homewood, Alabama Christmas Parade when it starts smoking, It
Speaker 4: started smoking real bad. I think that's the last time,
Speaker 4: because you know that's on the best of it. Because
Speaker 4: I'm telling you the story. We shut the prey down,
Speaker 4: so it's no, it was just the two of us,
Speaker 4: So it came to we know it made it to Murmingham.
Speaker 4: Then yes, because I yes, because it was so bad.
Speaker 4: It was smoking so bad that people wouldn't even run
Speaker 4: out and get candy.
Speaker 1: Well it got to her. It was struggling. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: then I was on the cheeches songhorn screaming. But it
Speaker 1: looked fantastic. Y'all agree, it looked fantastic. Oh yeah, from
Speaker 1: the outside. It's like most station vans from the outside,
Speaker 1: they look great. Look listen, and please don't forget, Please
Speaker 1: don't forget. This was my personal view. That's right. Don't
Speaker 1: let that get away from you. So you rode around
Speaker 1: in normal line. Oh yeah, sure, pizza in it before
Speaker 1: real estate agents begic on how we parked because we
Speaker 1: couldn't back up, y'all have to.
Speaker 8: We were going through the grass.

Speaker 2: I told you.
Speaker 1: When I bought a car after that, I asked how
Speaker 1: much with that reverse? You see, if I could get
Speaker 1: a deal on it.
Speaker 3: Well, it did prove. It did prove you can get
Speaker 3: by without reverse. If I'm just playing ahead of yeah.
Speaker 1: You know, right, when we come back, do y'all remember
Speaker 1: y'all bring up any incidents from from the last twenty
Speaker 1: five years, and you ask us if we remember it,
Speaker 1: and we say yes, clearly sort of or no recollection whatsoever,
Speaker 1: And I'll kick score on what we do. So this
Speaker 1: is nothing but twenty five year calls. When we come back. Rick, Hey,

Speaker 1: we talk about steaks.
Speaker 3: Rick Dateline, Richland, Washington. Swing sets are being removed from
Speaker 3: the playgrounds at Richland Elementary School simply because they're too dangerous.
Speaker 3: The district is under pressure from insurance companies over the
Speaker 3: liability for injuries. The school district says that swings are
Speaker 3: being removed when schools are renovated or there's other work
Speaker 3: on playground equipment. They say most injuries come from children
Speaker 3: walking in front or behind a moving swing.
Speaker 1: We now are raising up a generation that is so
Speaker 1: stupid that they can't even get by a swing set
Speaker 1: without being hit by the people swing. I mean, I
Speaker 1: know what happens accidentally, and it happened to all of us.
Speaker 1: Are people.
Speaker 3: We all been hit by a swing, but didn't affect
Speaker 3: us none.
Speaker 1: They're saying now that these children are getting hit at
Speaker 1: such a rate that they can't figure it out. They can't,
Speaker 1: you know, why because no one's ever allowed them to have,
Speaker 1: you know, troubleshooting skills of any kind. Kids now are
Speaker 1: are are trying to grow up in this bubble mentality
Speaker 1: where nothing bad ever happens.
Speaker 3: We're in the big Dipper.
Speaker 1: They don't even know how to walk by a swing
Speaker 1: set and not get hit by They have no idea
Speaker 1: not you have to teach us not to be hit.
Speaker 1: You got to remove the swing set. We can't pull
Speaker 1: this off. We can't get by the swinging people.
Speaker 3: How about being hit? Yeah, open you pay attention, have
Speaker 3: your head on a swivel when you walk by a
Speaker 3: swing and the other side of that. Have you ever
Speaker 3: been in one of the big o' swings and you're
Speaker 3: gonna jump out? You know, we should do that all
Speaker 3: the time. You peek you get the zero gravity, you'd
Speaker 3: simply release the bonds.
Speaker 1: Of the swing before your joints were on bone.
Speaker 3: Right and float back down to earth. And I tell you,
Speaker 3: when you're doing that and you get right at the
Speaker 3: peak and you're about to let go and somebody's walking
Speaker 3: in front of you, that's a that's a bad well.
Speaker 1: You know what we're trying to remove. You know what
Speaker 1: we're trying to remove it was what our dads and
Speaker 1: granddads and moms and grandmothers said. I he'll learn. I
Speaker 1: remember when mine we get hit by somebody swinging you
Speaker 1: know what they do it again? No, it's like right,
Speaker 1: you know, I he'll learn. Yeah, I'll learn to walk
Speaker 1: in front of the swing set.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you that.
Speaker 1: But what we're trying to do now is create an
Speaker 1: environment where there are no swing sets to walk in
Speaker 1: front of. Rick.
Speaker 4: Not only that, but you know, first first they came
Speaker 4: after the merry go round. Okay, it must go yeah,
Speaker 4: then the monkey bars disappear.
Speaker 1: Right right now, what do you have on a playground?
Speaker 1: And now swing sets and and part of the thing
Speaker 1: what they call the staff inspection crew. Oh wow, they
Speaker 1: go out and travel police.
Speaker 4: This has led officials to remove all metal objects which
Speaker 4: can have sharp edges, become too hot in the sun,
Speaker 4: uh you know, or a child could bump up against
Speaker 4: it because it's metal and be hurt.
Speaker 1: But Greg and I were talking about this earlier.
Speaker 4: One one of the best, the most fun things we
Speaker 4: ever did on a playground is see how far you
Speaker 4: could jump.
Speaker 1: Oh the swing set? Yes, I would, I would get
Speaker 1: I would get two stories high, unbelievable, and get a
Speaker 1: little high. I'd be running so high, you know, trying
Speaker 1: to get there, and you would hit hit a little.
Speaker 3: One of the feelings to me is zero gravity. Okay,
Speaker 3: just for just for a second, when you're in that
Speaker 3: swing and you hit the top of that and you
Speaker 3: come out of it and you're just you're just hanging
Speaker 3: in there for now. Gravity'll go ahead and get you after.
Speaker 1: That, and you might land on somebody, right, But you
Speaker 1: know what they learn and you learn. Where's the learning process?
Speaker 8: Wall ball's gone.
Speaker 1: Can't can't play dodgeballa can't play contact sports, play kickball,
Speaker 1: can't tag somebody, Yeah, I can't touch somebody, can't smear somebody.
Speaker 8: Not yet do they They still have that?
Speaker 3: I know y'all talking about the thing that goes around
Speaker 3: that makes you throw up, you know, that's that's.
Speaker 1: I remember one times a kid being traveled with the
Speaker 1: thing couldn't get off.
Speaker 3: My daughter broke her arm off of those you want
Speaker 3: them ban you know what.
Speaker 9: No.
Speaker 3: I wanted her to hang on better, yeah, learn, you know, yeah?
Speaker 3: And she said, well, some little boy pushed me off,
Speaker 3: and I said, well, you'll get another shot of him
Speaker 3: and she did later on, Yeah, and them off. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we all even score. I think sure. I think it
Speaker 3: was during the soccer game, right, In fact, whatever everybody
Speaker 3: else is kicking the ball, she was kicking him.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But and you know what he learned? That's right,
Speaker 1: where's the learning?
Speaker 3: All right, let's go what are you supposed to be
Speaker 3: able to do?
Speaker 1: That's okay with these Let's go to the modern day playground.
Speaker 1: Monkey bar's gone, spinning, merrygo round thing gone on U
Speaker 1: the dome gone, yeah, I said, monkey bars? All right,
Speaker 1: So swinger totters, swing set gone, seesaw gone, tag gone,
Speaker 1: dodgeball gone, contact sport of any kind of gear, smear gone.
Speaker 8: Flirting gone.
Speaker 1: Then good is it gone to? You know it will be.
Speaker 1: So when I'm out on the field, what am I
Speaker 1: supposed to do? Like you said? Well, and then I
Speaker 1: might blister your hand?
Speaker 4: Rick, I brought you up earlier. This goes back to
Speaker 4: what you always say, Michelle. Obama wants the kids to
Speaker 4: exercise more and eat better. But yet everything they do
Speaker 4: to exercise, you're taking.
Speaker 1: What I don't get it, And then we're going to
Speaker 1: complain about how fat they are?
Speaker 3: Right, what can we do? How about get you a
Speaker 3: little fat.
Speaker 1: A up run around.
Speaker 3: In gear is taking away. The only thing you do
Speaker 3: to get physical activity now is date the teacher.
Speaker 1: That seems to me ramp.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's going on.
Speaker 3: Anything to do.
Speaker 1: That's a couple of teachers losing a pairing up. Go
Speaker 1: to all the places in the world. I'm still scratching
Speaker 1: my head on that. Listen, I think you're on this
Speaker 1: up there. Listen to me. Go to all the places
Speaker 1: in the world where nobody has anything to do. You'll
Speaker 1: find that going on. Yeah, boredom leads to that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And no matter how I mean mental capacity did, it
Speaker 1: don't matter, they don't know. Everybody can figure that one out.
Speaker 1: They sure can. They can.
Speaker 3: Look, let me say this, most everybody got a few struggling.
Speaker 1: With it, but came across a for you. I thought, Really,
Speaker 1: you can't run the halls out out. No, you can't
Speaker 1: run out.
Speaker 3: You can't even talk in the hall.
Speaker 1: Well, how about this you got, I mean you gotta
Speaker 1: you gotta be seated and silent in the cafeteria. There
Speaker 1: was nothing, But what can you do? There is nothing
Speaker 1: better than the old teeter tartar when you would lie
Speaker 1: and say no, I'm not gonna bail out on you.
Speaker 1: You get them up there and you fell out on them.
Speaker 1: Am I I can tell you see who's gonna bail
Speaker 1: out on the other one. Tugle War gone? Are you pumping?
Speaker 3: Will you?
Speaker 1: Tugle War gone? Tugle War gone? All right, So we
Speaker 1: don't love, we don't un listen.
Speaker 3: We do field day because you can't have a winter
Speaker 3: and lose. Somebody cry, can't.
Speaker 1: I can't win, can't lose? Is there anything better than field?
Speaker 2: So?
Speaker 3: I mean, I hate to be insensive, but you see
Speaker 3: how this works out. They get into a job, they
Speaker 3: get fired. They don't know how to deal with losing.
Speaker 3: So all the dudes, I've been saying it for years,
Speaker 3: you're giving them. You're giving them no coping skills of
Speaker 3: any kind.
Speaker 1: We had field Day and we put the big kid
Speaker 1: at the anchor for the tug of war, and you
Speaker 1: know how you tied around. Yeah, but a lot of
Speaker 1: slipting on nearly cut him in half. But everybody got
Speaker 1: over it. He was hurting bad, nobody. He was a
Speaker 1: life cut. He's screaming. We thought he was really getting
Speaker 1: into it. No, he couldn't breathe. Look, I had one
Speaker 1: I did the same thing.
Speaker 3: He passed blood for a week. He was but he
Speaker 3: got to put a bowling it. So what was learned.
Speaker 1: Don't let people put a slip knight on you, and
Speaker 1: don't put a slip knot on somebody.
Speaker 4: That was all learned.
Speaker 1: It was learning. Just like I had the big girl
Speaker 1: on the war. I found the biggest girl on the school.
Speaker 1: We tied at her and I said, when they say
Speaker 1: go sit down, sit down, and she just took a
Speaker 1: seat and they couldn't. Nobody moove us and you had
Speaker 1: no slipn And once they got and once they got tired,
Speaker 1: we pulled them across the way and people fell on
Speaker 1: top each other, people got somebody got to somebody finally
Speaker 1: give Yeah, somebody got their lap busted, somebody got dirt
Speaker 1: up in their face.
Speaker 8: But you won, but we won.
Speaker 1: And how about this? They lost? I losing Phil losers.
Speaker 3: And marked at him, and you pointed your finger at him,
Speaker 3: and you told them to eat it and get up right.
Speaker 1: You know why I wanted to not lose because I
Speaker 1: experienced it and hated it. Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Every time you lose, that's me what tells you, dang,
Speaker 1: I hate losing. And you know what, if you ever
Speaker 1: got mad at somebody, you'd meet him after school fight
Speaker 1: and then you're best friend.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: We don't paddle anybody have a gun or knife. We
Speaker 1: just whoop each we bring the police. It should be drying.
Speaker 1: You should be in a crack house taking care of
Speaker 1: abandoned children and drug addicts. Yeah, we got them up
Speaker 1: to school because two kids got.
Speaker 8: In the fight to lunch.
Speaker 3: Come on, I mean, have we lost our minds? They
Speaker 3: had to come off their post to watching for seat man. Well,
Speaker 3: that's right. Hey, we don't paddle anybody.
Speaker 1: We don't. We don't let anybody run, We don't let
Speaker 1: anybody talk, We don't le anybody play. And then we
Speaker 1: wonder why they're all a bunch of idiots and they
Speaker 1: should shoot every place something because I can't cope.
Speaker 3: Rick, We need some skint knees out there in or
Speaker 3: built with skint knees.
Speaker 1: If you want to do you, if you want to
Speaker 1: do your kids some good today, push them down in

Speaker 1: Now let's go with something that Greg, that might appeal
Speaker 1: to Greg to words. Glasses you got, that's right, don't you.
Speaker 1: You have to motivate people what it motivates them, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, all great all great motivators know that, Greg,
Speaker 1: if you will wear your glasses, you may even see
Speaker 1: more clearly of more things to make fun of Adler about.
Speaker 1: That's good. So he didn't look like the way you
Speaker 1: think he looks. Well, here's your problem. I've made fun
Speaker 1: of his glasses. So now I'm gonna have glasses on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's that's yeah, it's part of it. That's he's
Speaker 1: waiting every time when he starts wearing his glasses. Of
Speaker 1: course they could choose a different pair. Drew Carrey call
Speaker 1: wanted to look back.
Speaker 3: You know though, Greg, I'll tell you what in the
Speaker 3: big picture of things, I don't know that that wouldn't
Speaker 3: be better to have the glasses to stay with them.
Speaker 3: I get so tired of taking reading glasses on it.
Speaker 3: If you got sunglasses, you got a handle.
Speaker 1: I made those contacts in there and go with it.
Speaker 1: I don't don't do that.
Speaker 8: They've come along.
Speaker 1: Sleep kids have been wearing since they were little.
Speaker 4: But I struggled with Hey, you know, Tyler was was
Speaker 4: experiencing some issues with his eyes when he has contacts now,
Speaker 4: but he's got two prescriptions like one freach eye and
Speaker 4: so he can't switch the contacts up when he did.
Speaker 1: We went through we've been through are you not hitting son?
Speaker 1: Whether my oldest son too? Where they have the uh,
Speaker 1: he's gone through the ones you sleep in the ones
Speaker 1: and just just when I first started out, who has
Speaker 1: those blake blake? Yeah, that's when when I first started
Speaker 1: that was the one. Well he can't see Jack, by
Speaker 1: the way, neither one of my kids, but but I
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking task mobiley next by the way. The
Speaker 1: but I was I was the first member of the
Speaker 1: soft contact came out. That was a big deal. I
Speaker 1: would try those, but you know, me with my you
Speaker 1: know as my kids called my chicken finger sized fingers.
Speaker 1: I would wad it up in a wad and become
Speaker 1: a wad. It was just an absolute not mare.
Speaker 3: I hated it.
Speaker 1: So I just went with glasses till LASIK surgery became available,
Speaker 1: and then I skipped on when they would scrub it
Speaker 1: off and waited for the actual laser to get there.
Speaker 1: And then I jumped in and it was life change.
Speaker 3: Peel it back when you were there.
Speaker 1: What is gonna make a difference is ball games. Because
Speaker 1: I noticed games and my eyes were hurting because I
Speaker 1: guess I was. I couldn't see it. That's what's happened
Speaker 1: when I'm in the stands. I said. At one place,
Speaker 1: I was at bird of snow. In one place, I
Speaker 1: couldn't say the field, Dolph. It went on sideline, but
Speaker 1: the uh yeah, if it comes in the preimer, forget it.
Speaker 1: How in the world does that happen? But anyway, but
Speaker 1: I've noticed now my eyes are getting bad in you know,
Speaker 1: I went through years agent of the eyes, so I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm struggling a little bit with my eyes now.
Speaker 4: Well I am too, and now I do have aging
Speaker 4: of the eyes where I can't see up close now
Speaker 4: like where I have to kind of pull it away.
Speaker 3: I don't have that. Well, you's coming, I know, because
Speaker 3: you need to get Lacy.
Speaker 1: You need to get Lacey. No, I'm too old for Lacey. No,
Speaker 1: you're great. You're not going to keep get aging. That's
Speaker 1: a waste of money. Well you would you think work glasses?
Speaker 8: Did your doctor?
Speaker 1: Your doctor said this is a you said, but okay,
Speaker 1: let me say this, say it's not, and you correct
Speaker 1: that with them. My eyes are just going to age
Speaker 1: and then don't have to wear them anyway. So what's
Speaker 1: the difference, right.
Speaker 3: Great, that's a strange world of logic.
Speaker 1: I don't want to pay thousands and try something that
Speaker 1: don't mind can glasses thousands of dollars later? Can I try? Mister?
Speaker 1: Can I try? Try, mister positive? Can I try up
Speaker 1: the damn? I gonna pay for lasiks?
Speaker 8: No, it's not as.
Speaker 1: It's one hundred dollars, I'm not paying. I can get
Speaker 1: your free Lasik before we're done today and turn for
Speaker 1: commerce and cutting on mine. Oh hey, yes, I love
Speaker 1: makes it surgery, Rick. How about if I get laser?
Speaker 1: I don't want the free one because I mean somebody
Speaker 1: not trying hard? Greg, Rick, you thought you could what
Speaker 1: am I gonna doing?
Speaker 3: Well, I didn't charge you, all right, Greg, He's funny
Speaker 3: you're arguing with glasses because for guy who's got.
Speaker 1: To know of that.
Speaker 3: Look, will you please whatever you order changing, just go
Speaker 3: with a buddy hollyes.
Speaker 1: All right, here's the thing I'm trying. I'm gonna try
Speaker 1: this one time and that I'm done with it because
Speaker 1: I've made the mistake of sitting out and talking to
Speaker 1: billy goats gruff and trying to see if I can
Speaker 1: change it. I'm forty seven years kmule. You wait just
Speaker 1: a minute, let me see if I can at least
Speaker 1: get you to turn left.
Speaker 3: That's like saying, don't get rid of a cold because
Speaker 3: you're gonna die one day anymore.
Speaker 1: It's not Greg, Here's I know that this. I've got
Speaker 1: the logic you're looking for, and you either rejected or
Speaker 1: embrace it. Okay, Yeah, good luck.
Speaker 2: Rick.
Speaker 1: It is different to have the aging of the eye
Speaker 1: and need reading reading glasses that only come and play
Speaker 1: when you need to read something, as opposed to having
Speaker 1: glasses on so you can see to dry to watch
Speaker 1: to watch games.
Speaker 3: Laci.
Speaker 1: Surgery can fix that part of your eye, and it
Speaker 1: will be different. Than having to wear glasses all the
Speaker 1: time doing that. Okay, well that's why. But I've said it.
Speaker 1: I made my case. And if I got a plastic glasses,
Speaker 1: my minds what it's covered off. And don't don't risk
Speaker 1: my eyes to some free surgeries. I ain't gonna try it.
Speaker 1: It ain't no way I'm paying for it.
Speaker 8: Hey, Scott, he's not gonna play for it. But a
Speaker 8: free one will be the bad they won't try.
Speaker 1: Hell, let me get that's batter he had.
Speaker 3: It's just your bad attem. Just glad to know his
Speaker 3: eyes finally caught up with his mouth.
Speaker 1: That's just your bad at that's just better than he had,
Speaker 1: eyes better than he had he was he gonna say.
Speaker 1: I didn't charge him, all right. So speaking of sleep,
Speaker 1: but we talked about this study. It says that poor
Speaker 1: sleep makes people feel lonely, it makes them anti social,
Speaker 1: and they said then the effect then becomes contagious.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know about the contagious part seems a little,
Speaker 3: but uh, is anybody shocked by this?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 3: I told you I'd just seen several studies the last
Speaker 3: week or two, and one was for you know, like Alzheimer's,
Speaker 3: and one was for heart health and all that, and
Speaker 3: all of them say the same thing, Rick, get this,
Speaker 3: eat right, exercise, get plenty of rest, your chances are better.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, are you wait a minute?
Speaker 3: That is shocking, Breakthrough, stop the printing press.
Speaker 1: Are you telling me that if I will exercise, get
Speaker 1: the proper rest, eat the proper foods, I'll actually do better.
Speaker 3: I think that's probably the best version of you, if
Speaker 3: you do right. Really, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1: Dogan? Who came up with that?
Speaker 3: I know that's crazy, isn't it.
Speaker 8: What are you talking about, Breakthrough?
Speaker 1: To tell me if I eat other major food roots
Speaker 1: and moderation in existimes and get eight hours sleep, I'll
Speaker 1: do better with that?
Speaker 3: There must be some research, I tell you that. You
Speaker 3: know what, I think the people doing research right now
Speaker 3: they just I just don't think they got anything new
Speaker 3: to look at.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they always go the same thing.
Speaker 3: You know, we got no matter what, we got several
Speaker 3: things we really need to work on. Cancer, you know,
Speaker 3: let's look at that, uh a common cold. Maybe if
Speaker 3: you if you don'tt to go that deep common cold,
Speaker 3: we could work on that.
Speaker 1: Is this telling me if I didn't sleep last night,
Speaker 1: I might be illing don't want to be around.
Speaker 3: I think that's what they're saying.
Speaker 1: Oh, my goodness of money. What I like? All your
Speaker 1: eyes I know, looks like I like it, slash, it's
Speaker 1: a development character. Yeah, let me let me know what
Speaker 1: works and I don't.
Speaker 3: I crosses.
Speaker 1: I like it. That's sh you'll sweat doing it. I
Speaker 1: don't know about y'all, but I usually a little more
Speaker 1: joyful when I get sleep you so, But the contagious part,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about. What are they being contagious?
Speaker 3: I think if somebody is acting one way and you're
Speaker 3: around those people, then you're gonna kind of like hitting's contagious.
Speaker 3: If you get somebody in the lineup that gets a hit,
Speaker 3: the next guy is gonna get a hit, and the
Speaker 3: next guy is gonna Well if I if I come
Speaker 3: in doing this and this is my every day, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna wear off on people. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I guess you're you're right, because I'm really saying the
Speaker 1: same thing because when I get around people like that,
Speaker 1: I leave them absolutely. You know why I avoid them.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be around I never get I
Speaker 1: never got you, right. I get away from people that
Speaker 1: are undesirable like I do sickness.
Speaker 3: Yes, Hams, you brought up something that does need to
Speaker 3: be studied, and that is momentum. Yeah, momentum. You see
Speaker 3: it in sports, but it happens and jobs, it happens,
Speaker 3: happens in life. Yeah, you know, it's just it's just strange.
Speaker 3: And you know how these teams kind of get the
Speaker 3: mentality that they're gonna win no matter what, kind of
Speaker 3: like that, let's slay the Golden State Warriors, doesn't matter
Speaker 3: how far they're down. They know they're gonna drain some
Speaker 3: threes and catch up at microwave pace. Yeah, and they're
Speaker 3: gonna win somehow. By the way, headed to the fifth
Speaker 3: straight finals, which only one other team has done that,
Speaker 3: the Celtics back in their heyday.
Speaker 1: Well, yea, I saw where they said this coach too,
Speaker 1: that he is Is he the first or if not,
Speaker 1: there hasn't been one that his first five seasons as
Speaker 1: a coach, he went, he's gone this deep kerr, kerr.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 8: I don't even know how long he's been there.
Speaker 3: Well, the other thing, I was there for all five
Speaker 3: of those, but I don't know how far before.
Speaker 1: That, Well I was, I was, I was thinking about
Speaker 1: this too when you were talking about the momentum thing,
Speaker 1: because it is true and I've seen this as a
Speaker 1: player or seen it coaching or whatever. If you're if
Speaker 1: you're dealing with a program or a team that has
Speaker 1: a history of losing, when they get into a game,
Speaker 1: even if they're ahead, they're constantly thinking of how we're
Speaker 1: gonna lose it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost like they expect something.
Speaker 1: Bad to happen. If you're in a program or a
Speaker 1: team that's winning and has a tradition of winning, when
Speaker 1: they're down, all they think about is I wonder how
Speaker 1: we're gonna win this, But we will somehow. And you
Speaker 1: know that was the what Vince Lombardi said to this point.
Speaker 1: Winning is contagious, but unfortunately so it's losing. So you know,
Speaker 1: all all these good and bad is contagious, and so
Speaker 1: you get you you want to you probably want to
Speaker 1: place yourself around and in environments that would produce the
Speaker 1: contagious of good.
Speaker 8: Things, good attitude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we do.
Speaker 3: We always talk about peer pressure to being a negative thing,
Speaker 3: but there's situations where it's positive. I mean, I think
Speaker 3: here it's pretty positive. You know, we meet each other,
Speaker 3: up pretty bad off the path.
Speaker 1: Your son described it kind of kind of harsh but
Speaker 1: really brought it in.
Speaker 3: But I think you referred to it as cutting your
Speaker 3: soul out.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, accountability here is extremely hot, it is.
Speaker 1: I mean, we'll say things to each other that you know,
Speaker 1: they're they're hurtful, but they're helpful.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then we'll go out to society and repeat
Speaker 4: that and people when he gets back.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you forget the first time.
Speaker 1: You remember the first time you treated somebody that didn't
Speaker 1: know you the way we treat each other. It's always
Speaker 1: very uncomfortable.
Speaker 8: But we laugh a lot, we smile a lot, We
Speaker 8: have a good time, and we take that out as well.
Speaker 2: We do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we are gregarious. We are very loud. Yeah, loud people. Yep.
Speaker 3: All right, Well there's a time though, I think you
Speaker 3: can have you know, we refer to it as a
Speaker 3: man to man conversation, but a direct conversation.
Speaker 1: About a topic.
Speaker 3: Sometimes it may be contractors, maybe you're trying to do
Speaker 3: a deal. Whatever. You can have a difference of opinion
Speaker 3: and still respect everybody. But you don't have to, you know,
Speaker 3: go in there and just keep beating around the bush
Speaker 3: and being.
Speaker 8: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: You can be direct, you can even be evil about
Speaker 3: something and and and state it and and move on.
Speaker 3: You know there's something wrong with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it's healthy to know where what's good?
Speaker 1: What what? What's everybody? Where's everybody's staying on this? Then
Speaker 1: we can and then we can work it out. Yeah.
Speaker 8: We feel like we're meeting on the air.
Speaker 1: We are. Yeah, yeah, like team building.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh, it's weird too.
Speaker 4: How they examined these the study of eighteen healthy young
Speaker 4: adults after a sleepless night and how they felt and
Speaker 4: the scanning of their brain. And the reason why they
Speaker 4: say they're anti social is that they said when they
Speaker 4: didn't get any sleep and they were tired, if they
Speaker 4: were putting a social environment, they tried to avoid talking
Speaker 4: to anybody.
Speaker 1: So that was their way. You know that takes energy?
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you're thinking about grabbing a nap.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: Right, they're gonna get stuck that way. Wow.
Speaker 1: What reckon?
Speaker 3: How many media they spent on that study. I think
Speaker 3: when you hang your mouth open, tell you that's good.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's been a day.
Speaker 1: Character of a.
Speaker 3: Oh my, that's just good stuff.
Speaker 1: Even in bubb staff shirt.
Speaker 9: Somebody told me if I'm no.
Speaker 1: More for the Confused America. Another portion of the study
Speaker 1: involved an online survey of more than a thousand people
Speaker 1: who watched videos of the sleep deprived participants. Imagine that
Speaker 1: the respondence how lonely they believe the participants were, and
Speaker 1: whether or not they'd want to socialize with them. The
Speaker 1: results showed that the sleepless participants were constantly viewed as
Speaker 1: being lonelier, and the respondents were not interested in spending
Speaker 1: any time with them. Wait a minute, I'm seeing my
Speaker 1: every body, myself staring at to see what I'm.
Speaker 3: Lonely wonder you're gonna fall out, that's what you're gonna
Speaker 3: stroke that.
Speaker 9: Character swapping fingers.
Speaker 1: Guys, they put this out today like story. Oh yeah, hey,
Speaker 1: we've got it, Rick, We've solved it. Oh my goodness, Oh.
Speaker 8: My goodness, you did you?
Speaker 2: I saw it?
Speaker 3: Arm Do you like Daddy? You like Daddy of the
Speaker 3: cross Domes?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah? And I hate it for you because they're nights.
