00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,839

74
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:51,000

75
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,079

77
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: this week. The press conference with Elon. Of course, a

78
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 1: thank you to Elon Musk for his service to the

79
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:14,319
Speaker 1: country through Doge, which is of course bittersweet, But I

80
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: think it was never intended to be a long term deal.

81
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: Elon's got a lot of things going on, and his

82
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: hope would be as with everything else he does, that

83
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: he's put in place a good culture, the dose folks

84
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: are spread throughout the government, and that they will continue

85
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,599
Speaker 1: to have a positive impact. I sure hope, so, I

86
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,000

140

Speaker 5: Last year, let's say eight, age fifty seven.

320
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: Ramon says you passed, well done. Raymond Michael Berry Show

321
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: got a message from Rico Mas Johnny today and said,

322
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: I heard you mentioned clothes lines in the Weekend Review.

323
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: This morning. My dryer broke a while back, and I

324
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: put up a clothes line in my yard till I

325
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 1: could get it fixed. Well, I got the I got

326
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: the dryer fixed. Sorry, I lost my train. I got

327
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: the dryer fixed, and I wound up keeping the clothes

328
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: line afterwards. I use it from gym clothes and jeans. Mostly.

329
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: There is something therapeutic about going in the yard and

330
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: hanging each piece with clothes pins and a nice picture

331
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 1: with the barbecue pit underneath it in a chair out there.

332
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: But Ramon, I feel like, guy, the guy, you didn't

333
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: need to include the line. I use it for my

334
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: gym clothing jeans mostly, right, Like, that was a perfectly

335
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: good email. Hey, you were talking about this, and this

336
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 1: is what I'm doing nostalgia. You know, I got a

337
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: lot of folks that I know koy and different folks

338
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: that will send me emails of Hey, you were talking

339
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: about old fashioned coffee makers or old fashion this, or

340
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: old classic trucks or whatever, and just thought you'd like, no,

341
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: you know, here is this and that thing was going

342
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: along fine, and I wound up keeping it up afterwards.

343
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: I use it for my gym clothes and jeans mostly.

344
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: I don't think that needed to be there. I didn't

345
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: need to know what article of clothing was in there.

346
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: I'm wondering what that just doesn't add anything? All right,

347
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: I'll read it to you two different ways. Okay, here's

348
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:12,239
Speaker 1: how he wrote it, subject line clothes line herd. Can

349
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: I get some music? Maybe some old fashioned music? You know,

350
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: an affair to remember kind of thing you will bring

351
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 1: her into King and I you know something that says

352
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty two. You know, I can imagine my nanny

353
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: as I called her. She wore glasses and didn't have

354
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: a that had the nose bobber on it. But the

355
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: glasses were so heavy back in the just dig into

356
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: her nose. When she take her glasses off to wipe

357
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: her eyes, it'd be this huge indentation there. She cut

358
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: her own hair. She painted her her nails once every

359
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: five years, whether she needed to or not. So there

360
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: was her nails were always not painted, but just a

361
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: little bit of red because that was the only thing

362
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: Cheryl wore still just a little just a little knobs

363
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: of just little patches of red on there. She wore

364
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: alli estra pants from that she bought from Kroger. She

365
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: wore floral shirts and she probably had five of them

366
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: if that. And then she wore slip on shoes that

367
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: were just like the little pad we be, like the

368
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: shoes you get at a hotel that they give you

369
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: to go down to the pool or whatever. All right,

370
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 1: so here is she would do that. She was the clothesline.

371
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: I remember being a little bitty I remember, I can

372
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: remember being so small. I'd walk out there and i'd

373
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: stand next to her while she was putting the clothes

374
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: on the clothesline, and I wrapped my arms around her leg,

375
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 1: and she'd as she moved from one to the next,

376
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: she'd move the leg that didn't have me on it,

377
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: and then she'd move that other one, and it was

378
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: like the jolly green giant. I thought Nanny could do anything.

379
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 1: All right, here's the version that he did clothesline. Heard

380
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: you mentioned clothesline. I'll do it as you want me

381
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 1: to do it, as rico. Good morning, brother, I saw

382
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: a clothesline. I heard you mentioned clotheslines week in review.

383
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: This morn, my driverer broke and I put a clothes

384
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 1: line in my yard till I could get it fixed.

385
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: I wound up keeping it up afterwards. I use it

386
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: for my gym clothes and jeans. Mostly. There's something therapeutic

387
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: about going in the yard, brother, and hanging each piece

388
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: with clothes pins. All right, now, let's do it without

389
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: that line. Let's see which one sounds better. Clothes pin,

390
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 1: Oh say, clothes line? Good morning, brother. I heard you

391
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: mentioned clothes lines in your Week in Review. This morning,

392
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: my driverer broke a while back, and I put up

393
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: a clothes line in my yard till I could get

394
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 1: it fixed. I wound up keeping it up after There's

395
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: something therapeutic about going in the yard and hanging each

396
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: piece with clothes pins. So that makes the world difference,

397
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: doesn't it, Because what you use it for, which is

398
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: of no consequence, takes the punch out from I wound

399
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: up keeping it up afterwards. There's something therapeutic about whereas

400
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: when you throw in the gym clothing jeans. Also, that's

401
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: kind of ils some bro code. I don't know that

402
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,399
Speaker 1: just that's to get you know, that's like telling me

403
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: the scent of the candle in your bedroom. You know,

404
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 1: you just agree on that. I'm open to emails with

405
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: the vote one way or another, and don't don't just

406
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 1: because you like Rico. Don't go no, no. I think

407
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 1: it's perfectly fine. Michael. You're being overly sensitive. That's not

408
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: how this works. Uh, listen, did Vaughan call back? All right,

409
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: let's go to Pete first. Who will go to Vaughan?

410
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 5: Pete?

411
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: You're up, go ahead, Hell, Pet's underwater. He's drowning. He's

412
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: one hundred percent rounding right now. No, maybe he was

413
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: just waving to the war. I kind of like to

414
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: imagine MacArthur when he said I shall return, and he's returning,

415
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, and he's waiting through the water. You ain't

416
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: got got a high step get out of that water.

417
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: That's what that's sounded like. We lost him. Okay, all right,

418
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: Vaughn's back, Go ahead, Vaughan.

419
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 5: Hey, I was up against the break when when we

420
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 5: finished last time. But uh, yeah, I'm gonna take the

421
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 5: comical angle off of it because it seemed like it

422
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 5: didn't stick. But anyway, Uh, it seems that, you know,

423
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 5: when they pull a vaccine, you know, off the market

424
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 5: or try to stop it, it seems that there's more

425
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 5: virulent forms or strands of the uh the virus that's

426
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 5: uh that's waiting to be put out, you know. And

427
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 5: I'm thinking that it's maybe the vaccine company, uh, you know,

428
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 5: maybe somebody who has an interest in the time bombing

429
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 5: f act of uh you know, vaccines, or maybe the

430
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 5: money whatever. But uh, there seemed to be more virulent

431
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 5: strands in waiting, and uh, you know these particular strands

432
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 5: that just came out you know they were waiting to

433
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 5: be released, but you know this is just as good

434
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 5: a time as any. That's basically what I wanted to say.

435
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 5: And another thing I wanted to ask you a question, Mike,

436
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 5: have you ever heard of a music musician Ace Cannon.

437
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 5: He's a he's an old white guy from New Orleans

438
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 5: or He has a record called Tough t U f F.

439
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 5: If you can play that, I think you would enjoy.

440
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: That old white guy in New Orleans.

441
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 5: Yes, the older white guy, he's real, real No, no

442
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 5: A C Canon c A N N O N that

443
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 5: said right there? All right, goodbye, Mike.

444
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: My brother's got some soul one, Yes he does, he does.

445
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,959
Speaker 1: We'll just stay there and we're listening to it together. Okay,

446
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: this ain't quite Gym's and the gym clothes and jeans

447
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: on the clothes line, but it might be a crossing

448
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: a certain line. But that's just a jermyne. Ain't that irony?

449
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: A black guy calling the white guy told about the

450
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,959
Speaker 1: old white guy in New Orleans. This is a crazy country.
