Right.
Randy
Apparently my semi retirement is off again.
JD Ryan
Okay.
Randy
I mean, you know I've been pushing that stupid four to one bet.
JD Ryan
You didn't.
Randy
I may have overestimated the statistical advantage of capitalizing on the impossible.
JD Ryan
Yes, I understand.
Randy
But hell, well, four to one.
JD Ryan
Yeah, four to one. Right. But the reason the odds are long is because it ain't gonna happen.
Randy
I know. Floyd Mayweather is like some kind of golden child prodigy in the sport knob.
JD Ryan
Right, right, right.
Randy
You ever see that McGregor fight?
John Clay Wolf

Randy
Would you fight him?
JD Ryan
No.
Randy
Huh? Oh, no, I wouldn't fight him.
JD Ryan
Of course not.
Randy
Hell no. But I would go five bucks on the possibility. I mean, five bucks.

John Clay Wolf
And he called me, said, hey, what if we. We need to do something for. For these people in Houston?
JD Ryan
Doug's a pilot buddy.
John Clay Wolf
Doug's a pilot buddy. I call him Water Doug.
JD Ryan
Why?
John Clay Wolf
Because he owned a water well company, okay. That they used to drill hole. They drilled holes for the aquifers, for the drill, for the frat jobs.
JD Ryan
Right? Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
They fill up the ponds. Okay, Water Duck. Name's Water Doug.
JD Ryan
Got you.
John Clay Wolf
So he calls, I see on the phone. Water Doug. Hey, Water Doug. What's up? Hey, man, we need to do something for these Houston people. I agree. I just don't know what. Well, you're a pilot and I'm piloting. Why don't we fly some stuff down? I'm like, okay, when you'll go? He's like, well, you know, there's just got to be a way to do this. And. And I said, well, I've got this radio network.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
You know, we ought to use it for some good, right? What if we organized a bunch of pilots in kind of mimic that Cajun Navy thing, but did it with airplanes. Yeah, Yeah. I was thinking something like this. We said, okay.
JD Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
So we.
JD Ryan
What day is this?
John Clay Wolf
This is Tuesday morning. I'm like, dude, I'm fixing. I've got $3 million worth of cars I gotta go in here and sell real quick. Takes all day. It's real important, right? I'm going to. I said, we got to name this thing something good. These pilots will get. They'll get excited if they feel like they're part of something and if it's like military op style. So I'm like, operation Airdrop. He's like, I don't know. I was like, what, you got something better? He's like, no, but it's good. Kind of sounds like Dumbo. Airdrop, Remember that movie? I was like, no, no, it's not like that. Operation Airdrop. And we bounce that around. I was like, okay, that's what it is. So I call our IT guy and I said, look up Operation Airdrop on the. Make sure we're not dealing. See if it's. See if it's used. He said, it's somebody squatting on it. They want 2500. I said, put a dash between Operation and Airdrop. He said, that's available. I'm like, take it and do this and I'll be back with you at three o'clock today. And damned if it didn't just go down like that. And then it just exploded. And then we launched a Facebook pilots page that night. I sat there and just started a deal. I think we've got 400 pilots on there. 300 pilots already.
JD Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, Yesterday there were. I didn't get accountants, but there was damn sure 75 airplanes in there.
Bobo
If there were the magnitude Tuesday, man, I didn't either. 3, 400.
JD Ryan
Everybody jumped on board and, and the air traffic. Even the air traffic control system got on board and gave them a special. What's called a squawk code, which is a little number you put in your radio to tell you on the radar. That's you.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
JD Ryan
They give them a special.
John Clay Wolf
Operation Airdrop had their own squad code in the air traffic control.
JD Ryan
People got involved. I mean, the FAA never does anything quick. I mean, it takes years.
John Clay Wolf
One of our guys is faa.
JD Ryan
Ah, there key.
John Clay Wolf
And one of our guys is. He happens to be ex National Guard.
JD Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And he was in charge, a big part of Katrina stuff.
JD Ryan
So you got the old ringer trick.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, so we, we. We were like getting set up today. I mean, we're all geeked out now, man. Everybody's like zoned in, ready to go. Where's the next mission officer? And we're gonna go into Beaumont this morning. But military took over Beaumont this morning, yesterday. And they, they put a. Not what they Call it TFR is terminal flight restriction. But they put like a block on it. No commercial or period. We're flying nurses and medicine from Dallas to Beaumont this morning on a couple of planes that have a couple of their airdrop planes, a couple of designated SQUAT codes. But the big. We have a lot of pilots loaded, ready to go, and they don't know where to go. A lot of people, it's so screwed up they can't receive those supplies.
JD Ryan
God, that happened. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
It's hard to believe that, but that's the truth.
JD Ryan
But yeah, it's not because the people on the ground are doing so many things.
John Clay Wolf
Is that the National Guard didn't have enough help.
JD Ryan
Yeah, they don't have enough help.
John Clay Wolf
No, I mean. And they. So yesterday we turned then another. Another fellow that's part of our crew is connected with the Salvation Army. So that's who met us at Conroe yesterday with drugs with those trucks. And then they're writing receipts. And I was like, you know me thinking about money and stuff.
JD Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
If these pilots can get donation receipts for their fuel, then this will keep them coming back.
JD Ryan
Oh, yeah. Because give them a reason, right?
John Clay Wolf
You mean give a pilot a reason to fly, really? And then a good cause and make a feel good about all this crap he spent money on that his wife's been busting his balls over forever airplane again.
JD Ryan
Honey, I'm getting a tax deduction for it. And we're doing things. Something good.
Randy
Oh, okay.
John Clay Wolf
Right. So that. That. It's perfect. Can I go with you? So we gave him receipts for $350 donation receipt for single engines and 600 for multi engines for twins.
Bobo
Amazing.
JD Ryan
You got all that done in. In a couple.
John Clay Wolf
It's the guys we're hooked up with. It's Glenn and Doug and myself and Kyle. And everybody has their own part, so I'm just lucky.
JD Ryan
And the fixed base operators, the people at the airport that sell gas and stuff like that, those are called FBOs. And those people have gotten involved in their drop centers. Now they're bringing the stuff here. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So go to operationairdrop.com and you can see a drop center near your home. There'll be a lot more. But right now those are the ones we have ready. And you can take the stuff, the supplies, water, no clothes, water, non perishable foods, diapers, baby formula, like hardcore necessities, women's items, you know, like JP use.
JD Ryan
JADA uses, giants and all this.
John Clay Wolf
Take them to the FBOs, which is the gas stations at the airport on our website page, operation-airdrop.com and then our pilots will come through there and scoop it up and get them delivered to the right place.
JD Ryan
Yeah, you can put it on Facebook as well. I mean it's the. There's a link to Facebook. It's all on Facebook as well as.
John Clay Wolf
Yes, the website. The Facebook page is almost like a CB chatter for pilots.

And he just didn't like that. It's not like the record. Well, Donald didn't sing it on the album. You know, this is a guy named David Palmer from way back that got kicked out of the band right away.
John Clay Wolf
He's got a good voice.

Some of the quick trips have opened, have closed certain locations and opened other ones. There is no crisis is the problem. We are creating this crisis.
John Clay Wolf
There's a little bit of a crisis.
JD Ryan
There's a crisis is because people, because people are being stupid.
John Clay Wolf
The crisis is as the trucks.

John Clay Wolf
I have cars in south Louisiana that have been here for 10 days.

John Clay Wolf
No, it's crisis. But if people didn't go panic and just people didn't fill up.
JD Ryan
Right.
Bobo
It wouldn't fill up. Same time is what's new.
JD Ryan
Exactly. And then it'll, it'll, it'll, it'll level out. It'll be fine if everyone would just relax. But we won't. We're crazy. Somebody Somebody put. Put on Facebook the. The best line of the week, which is, do you see how close we are? You see the little tiny string we're hanging on by. What if we had a real crisis? This place is gonna be a real.
John Clay Wolf
Crisis in South Texas, I can tell you.
JD Ryan

John Clay Wolf
Yes, It's. It's, you know, the. The flood waters have receded.

JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
They're cooking. I ought to read his email. I mean, because we started this Operation Airdrop thing.
JD Ryan
He's like, hey, man, I need pilots from flying.
John Clay Wolf

JD Ryan
Temporary flight restriction.
John Clay Wolf
Right. So you can't fly in there.
JD Ryan
VFR, visual flight rules.
John Clay Wolf
And then there's also some TFRs where there's no civilian aircraft at all.
Bobo
At all.
John Clay Wolf
Or commercial.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Like Beaumont.
Bobo
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And that's where they knew.
JD Ryan
This is what they put up when the President lands somewhere. It's called a temporary flight restriction. Nobody gets in.
John Clay Wolf
So our guy got a code for our group operation aircraft just for you. Yes. And we're trying to get one into Beaumont. And we're having a little trouble because the National Guard's there and they're having trouble with manpower and.
JD Ryan
Blah, blah, blah.
John Clay Wolf
We're trying to figure out where to land this stuff. I got you. So we actually. If they're. They're waiting on. We're waiting on a phone call right now. And then we're going to release it. And I'll tell you when we know.
JD Ryan
Instead of the Cajun Navy, this is the Texas Air Force.
John Clay Wolf
It's not just Texas, but that's the cool part.
Randy

Thank you to the disinfectant. You're funny already. To the what's going on. We're very aware of what's going on.
JD Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
But anyway, we got to keep, you know, get your mind off of it a little bit. It's what we hope to do this morning. Good morning, dj. What to do, y'? All. Y' all ready for America's favorite whitey black show? Right here. What do you do, man?
JD Ryan
I'd love to see every Saturday. It's a whole. It's not just a little variation.
John Clay Wolf
It's a whole new look in his outfit.
JD Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Well, that's like the gay guys and the black guys, they really go all out in their. Your attire. I mean, it's not even close. I don't know which one here, like.
JD Ryan
I wear different Hawaiian shirts, but it's always the same vein. He's totally different every Saturday.
Bobo
Not that there's anything wrong.
JD Ryan
It's great. Today. I got something.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, D.J. pre K. Whitey black. Are you gonna go dove hunting? Did you go dove hunting on opening day? Because, I mean, you're a real outdoorsman type, aren't you? Dove hunting? Not quite, man. I might be looking for some ducks, you know, that's about it. Ducks. What are ducks? I mean, ducks. Maybe some chicken heads. Ducks.
JD Ryan
Ducks.
John Clay Wolf
Season's not till winter time.
JD Ryan
I don't think that's gonna be, ladies. Yeah, I don't know.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know. Go ahead, what you got? Yeah, I'm back with everybody's favorite game show, y'.
Caller/Guest
All.
John Clay Wolf
White, black, Latino or other, where I. I will read a news story about some recent crime or something. And y' all gotta guess the race of the person. So today I got some cats up in Baltimore who were. They decided to run up in a bar and demand some cash. But unfortunately the bar was filled with off duty police officers for a police retirement party. So the cops chased him down and arrested them and proceeded to whoop they ass pretty bad. And the pub owner says it's odd that someone would attempt a robbery because a precinct station is right across the street.
JD Ryan
How stupid you be.
John Clay Wolf
So where are these criminals? White, black, Latino or other man, who's that dumb?
JD Ryan
I gotta go with cracked out white dudes. I gotta go with that. It's just, I don't think anybody else.
John Clay Wolf
I'm gonna. I'm gonna go with, with a. Maybe a downsy Italian.
JD Ryan
Down, down.
Bobo
I think they're. They're white guys because all the black people in the neighborhood know precisely where the precinct and the cop bar.
JD Ryan
Yeah, there you go. I agree.
John Clay Wolf
I'm going with Bob. Yep, yep. All right, y' all kind of off on this one. 21 year old Joseph McInnes III and 22 year old Tyree McCoy, African American, and his brother Tyrone.
JD Ryan
And they were from a different neighborhood because they would.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, must have been, because, you know.
JD Ryan
Hey, it's a good idea. Let's rob a donut store.
Bobo
Hey, man, I'm gonna get me a shot of that Wild Turkey and we gonna have all that liquor money.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, real quick, I'm gonna give an update to our pilots out there that are tuning in around the whole region for Operation Airdrop. We finally do. The destination is set for today. It is Hawthorne Airport, which is near Beaumont. 45 Romeo 45R is the identifier. They have room for 10 airplanes at a time. So. And fuel up before you go so you can get out of there. Because they're out of fuel. They're out of fuel. And Lufkin does have fuel. 55 miles north. You can go to operationairdrop.com not. Or the Facebook page, Operation Airborne.
JD Ryan
It's operation-airdrop.com is the website for the public.
John Clay Wolf
In. In the public. You can go to the FBOs, the gas stations, the.
JD Ryan
It's like a marina for airplanes.
John Clay Wolf
Marina, that's a good word on the air near your home and make donations. So we. We've created a network with airports and it's. And you can take the donations to the airports and our pilots are gonna fly and pick them up.
JD Ryan
Even if you're not a pilot, you can do this. You can go to the. What they call FBOs, fixed based.
John Clay Wolf
Two sets of volunteers here, right? You've got the public donating the products, right? And the pilots donating their services and time and fuel.
JD Ryan
Because I got a pilot friend of mine goes, well, I wish I could help, man, but I'm not current, which means I can't fly currently. But you can still help. You can still bring stuff.
John Clay Wolf
We're gonna. I mean, this thing's growing so fast, we're gonna need dispatchers, we're gonna need some labor help. Awesome. Yeah.
JD Ryan
Amazing how quick this is happening for sure.
Bobo
And long term, this deal today is its own best reward. Because there ain't nothing like Lufkin on.
JD Ryan
A Saturday afternoon, you know, only you, baba. Wow. Have you been?
Bobo
Have you been. Do you know what I'm talking about?
JD Ryan
You could put the mold on the bread. Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
That's what I was. I was thinking. I was like, so if we can give these guys tax receipts to cover their fuel cost. Oh, man, all we need is like a cocktail party at the end of each drop. Then everybody would always do it. This. These pilots are looking for excuses to fly.
JD Ryan
People flying from Canada.
Randy
Yeah, right.
John Clay Wolf
They really will. They really will. I've got a guy.
JD Ryan
Seriously, here's a fellow pilots look for reasons to fly. Understand?
John Clay Wolf
How is your ramp space up there, brother Wolf? Monday I have a jet coming in. Tuesday, Wednesday I may have a bigger jet coming in. And it's confirmed for Monday flight for the nurses through operation Airdrop coordinating. Flying our other jet right now. It's a phenom 100 and a gulf stream. Want to make sure that there's plenty of room to park it on the ramp up there.
JD Ryan
Holy moly.
John Clay Wolf
A Gulf stream? Seriously? Wow.
JD Ryan
That's a little expensive, right?
John Clay Wolf
He. He asked me when. I mean, he's. He's like, what can I do for Operation Air job? I was like, well, we were thinking about going to Aspen and skiing this, this Christmas. I don't think that's part of it.
Bobo
We need to do.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, if you're just throwing away jet air. Not throwing away. Throwing around.
JD Ryan
Throwing around.
John Clay Wolf
Right now. Right now. Yeah. We got with the National Guard, we're in the salvation arm. We're hauling nurses and medicine from Dallas to the affected areas right now. Yeah.
JD Ryan
Okay. All right. So how can somebody who's not a pilot get involved? They can go to the website.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. And look at the donation spots. And the donations. Diapers, baby formula.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Water. Water. What else? There's more.
JD Ryan
Is there a list on the website? Okay, good deal. Operation-AirDrop.com-Operation-AirDrop.

John Clay Wolf
So we're good. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800 radio cars for a minute. The cars are worth more now, period. Because they need lost a million in Houston. Okay, so people in Houston are going to buy new cars. Where are they going to go? They're going to go the dealerships. What's my job? To reload the dealerships.

Well, we've started Operation Airdrop. You can go to operationairdrop.com it's operation-airdrop or join our Facebook page. I'm a pilot. We had an idea to start a pilots group and it really caught fire in 72 hours. Fires not a good term, I understand, but flying, I understand. But yeah, it caught on. Yesterday we did our first mission into Conroe. We had nearly 100 airplanes land loaded from Phoenix, Minnesota, Mexico and everywhere in between. Tons of Louisiana. Think of the Cajun Navy, which everyone's gotten familiar with. It's a household name now. This is. Operation Airdrop is basically that concept for all with general aviation aircraft delivering emergency supplies to flood victim.

Y' all give you a good excuse to go hunting and kill some more game. Just like it's a good time now to go buy four wheel drives.
John Clay Wolf
Tell them about your the cooking that's going down there in. In what cities?
Caller/Guest
Okay, so teams have set up all over from Rockport to Houston. I've got two teams that I'm working with right now. One and Katie there's is running five pits 24 7. They're feeding the National Guard there in Katy. They're feeding the local police departments. Anyone that needs meals, they can call and we'll run over from 100 to 300 meals.

We've got just all our friends and neighbors doing so much and I apologize for being a little scattered but I'm doing about a thousand miles and two days now just trying to get stuff in the hands of people that can easily it the most.
John Clay Wolf
Tell me about you said Costco Y' all spent 25,000 and that's with a 50% discount plus the stuff they've given y' all for free.

Costco and Katie has been fabulous. They have opened their doors early, they've kept them open late. They've given us meat, they've given us supplies, they've given 50 off. And yes, we did. A GoFundMe page raised 27,000 and 25,000 has been spent there already.
John Clay Wolf
So the message is is if you've got that meat in your freezer, the game's fine. Whatever. At this point, people need to eat. They're not being as picky as you and I are and, and load it up and take it where I got 40 seconds.
Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
John, good morning.
JD Ryan
Hey.
Caller/Guest
How are you?
John Clay Wolf
I'm good. Just. Just actually enjoying my Saturday morning radio. We've been so busy this week.
JD Ryan
Crazy.
John Clay Wolf
This is like a deep, deep decompression chamber.
JD Ryan
Hanging out with your buddies. Just chatting.
John Clay Wolf
What's. What's up with you? Did you get flooded?

John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
A week ago, I would have hit it at 11. This week I'd hit it at 13.13k. Is that much difference? Dude, wow. The. The market, I'm telling y', all, the. The car market has changed overnight with this. Well, you take a million cars out of the system, them. So the. They've got to be replaced, and there's only so many to replace them. Right? Yeah. What, what, what we take for it 12.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, you know, I did the. What was the CarMax. So I got 17 for it. So that's kind of where I'm looking for that.
John Clay Wolf
CarMax didn't bid you a 12. Send me a sin. If they bid this car at 17, then I'm not seeing what you're seeing. There's something up here. Is it lifted? Is it four wheel drive? Is it leather? Is it navigation? Because I don't miss. I always beat Carmax. So go to, go to. Go to givemetheven.com and send us a picture, that Carmax offer letter. And let me look at it. And there's something between what you're telling me and what I'm thinking I'm hearing is different. So go to, give me the video. Load it up. All right, there's a 12 extended cab with 80. Now, that doesn't make sense. I'm missing something. I'm not saying he's wrong. I'm missing something. Put some pictures in the communication.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
8008-0072-3480-0800 radio.
JD Ryan
You said rush Limbaugh was going to come in. He had a whole discussion, his whole angle on this thing.

JD Ryan
Okay. See if he's around.
Bobo
But, J.D.
Randy
Look.
JD Ryan
Good morning, Rush.
Bobo
My. What do you describe as my whole angle?
JD Ryan
Well, just, you know, I'm sure you have a take on what Trump has done over this whole flood thing. And his wife's shoes. And the cap he's wearing. Surely. I mean, you're buddies with him.
Bobo
Okay, I'm sorry, I thought you were expecting me to perform some kind of meteorology.
JD Ryan
No, no. Meteorology. That's not really what I do. I don't want to talk about the weather. We want to talk about the political aspect of this.
Bobo
In my world, it's a little cloudy all the time.
JD Ryan
I know. Because you take a lot of drugs.
Bobo
Well, just enough.
JD Ryan
Just no one. No one that takes drugs thinks they take too many.
Bobo
It's not show friends, J.D. it's show business.
JD Ryan
Show business. I understand.
Bobo
Here on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
JD Ryan
I gotcha.
Bobo
I think the first lady looked just fabulous.
JD Ryan
Well, of course you would.
Bobo
Did you see that cap?
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
Donald. The Donald. Our fearless leader, Donald J. Trump wears Make America Great Again.
JD Ryan
And the US USA cap he had on.
Bobo
The First Lady.
JD Ryan
Right.
Bobo
Likes to. To wear the. The FLOTUS cap.
JD Ryan
Yes. First lady of the.
Bobo
Which I think is just outstanding. And it's dark blue.
JD Ryan
It is, yeah.
Bobo
Like. Like a military issue.
JD Ryan
The thing people are having a problem with is they're selling these caps as well, so they feel like they're using the presidency to market.
John Clay Wolf
Who is selling them. The campaign.
JD Ryan
Yeah, of course.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
JD Ryan
You can go buy those on his website.
John Clay Wolf
But what are they doing? The money.
JD Ryan
Well, at least they're not selling weapons to Iran. Hillary.
Bobo
Well, no, but it's public service still. All proceeds will go to keeping dirty hippies out of office.
JD Ryan
Right. Exactly what we need to do these days.
Bobo
I think it's. We haven't had a beautiful first lady since Nancy Reagan.
JD Ryan
Yes. And Melania is attractive in a different way.
Bobo
And like Nancy Reagan, she has. Has, you know, a background in porn.
JD Ryan
No, she's not. Nancy does. What?
John Clay Wolf
I heard doesn't have a background in porn. She took a nude photo back in her early 20s.
Bobo
Oh, was that fake?
JD Ryan
No, it wasn't fake. That's real.
Bobo
It was really good fake porn.
JD Ryan
That was real.
Bobo
Did you see that?
JD Ryan
Those were for actually for. What magazine was that? Esquire somebody.
Bobo
The film was titled My Smile.
JD Ryan
No, you didn't see that. That wasn't my.
Bobo
Outstanding.
JD Ryan
It was not Melania.
Bobo
They had her dress like Wonder Woman.
JD Ryan
It wasn't.
Bobo
But without any of the costume.
JD Ryan
You're making this up now.
Bobo
Outstanding.
JD Ryan
Can we get back to the hurricane?
Bobo
Anyway, I think flotus. Yes, flotus is a welcome addition to our governmental Family. I wouldn't be surprised.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
If she becomes the next Attorney General. Because we're gonna need one very soon.
JD Ryan
I don't know.
Bobo
Don't you think?
JD Ryan
I don't think this Mueller guy, he's not real qualified.
Bobo
I think Mueller ruler has some sort of a secret tie to the Clinton dynasty. Do you think the previous regime. Watch and see if I'm right or wrong.
JD Ryan
All right, buddy?
Bobo
Until then, send all your. Your funding.
JD Ryan
Yes.

John Clay Wolf
Girls like, some guys like big girls.
JD Ryan
I remember what it was in the late 90s and the heart was in concert in Dallas and you could literally hear a gasp from the audience. When Ann walked on stage, she was so huge.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah.
JD Ryan
You hear the audience go, look like a weather balloon. Oh, my God. It was a very bad time for her.
Bobo
I think I saw her.
JD Ryan
And she wore the black and you ever watched the heart videos of that era? They'd squeeze the video in a little bit to make her look better. We'll look at them. Come back and look at the videos.
John Clay Wolf
There's a group. There's a group of pilots in south Louisiana that have named themselves the Cajun air force.
JD Ryan
The Cajun air Force.
John Clay Wolf
They have just joined operation Airdrop.
Bobo
Nice.
JD Ryan
You want to touch on what operation Airdrop is?
John Clay Wolf
We will, but we've been hitting it all day. We'll get there a little bit.
JD Ryan
Huge.
John Clay Wolf
You can go to givemetheven.com or John Clay wolf show and click the banner on the top. It's a charity deal that a friend of mine and I just set up Tuesday, and it's already in full effect. It's pretty neat. Flood cars.
JD Ryan
Flood cars.
John Clay Wolf
Listener just emailed in with a good piece of advice. He said he's had hundreds of people come by his detail shop saying, hey, will you please give this thing a detail? It got flooded and he can do that. Yeah, but it's not gonna work. The padding in the carpet, the insulation on the back side of the doors, the stuffing in the seats, the insulation all over the car. It won't go away. You got to pull all that out and start over. And they can get it looking okay for today, but it's going to start stinking.
JD Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
The mold in the padding will overcome it.
JD Ryan
Professionals know what to look for.
John Clay Wolf
To look. Yeah, yeah. And there's little things like where the bolts go into the carpet for the seats.
JD Ryan
Sure, right there.
John Clay Wolf
Mud gathered there. The back side of the dash.
JD Ryan
I don't care how good you debris detail it, it's not gonna happen.
John Clay Wolf
No, you can. You can. It look. It looks almost like a non, non flood car out of the west Texas oil field. Those are the dirtiest trucks I've ever seen in my entire life.
JD Ryan
They're soaked in mud and dirt every day.
John Clay Wolf
Football. Let's talk about something happy. Shiny, happy, happy. Today is college football Saturday. Here we go. It is among us. Yeah, buddy. Big games today, John. What you got, Turtle? You just plop on the couch and just pop a couple beers and you're good to go. Texas and Maryland, come in. Are you calling me an alcoholic? No, no. I'm just saying that's what you can do. Everybody's excited to see how UT is going to do with the new coach. They play Maryland. They should win that game. They're favored by 17 and a half. So that starts at 11. So that's going to start your day off. Clemson and defending national champs, they play too at 11. If you want to flip back and forth, the big game, of course. John, I've got a good idea real quick. If you're in the audio visual business, take some big screens like projection to these areas where the people are holding like the gymnasiums and the shopping mall with a satellite dish and set them up so they can get their mind off of this for a little while. Watch some college football and some pro football. Go ahead, Charlie. Yeah, they can watch that. They can watch at 1:30. Michigan, Virgin Florida. That's over at Jerry World. That's gonna be a good game. Michigan should win. They're favored by five. But the big game, number one versus number three, that has not happened for a week. One game ever in college football? No, never. Never ever happened. Who is that? Ivan? It's Alabama 1 versus Florida State. It's at Bama. Now Florida State doesn't have their running attack like last year so Delvin Cook is not there. So are they gonna be able to beat Bama? Probably not. Bama's favorite by seven. But that's your college football all. All day from now until that's seven o'.
JD Ryan
Clock.
John Clay Wolf
LSU is playing Brigham Young in New Orleans or in. That's. That's at new. In New Orleans and that's at 7:30 at the Superdome. Yeah, you can flip back and forth there. Cool, cool, cool. 07 Acura RDX. I just lost this Mazda that we were fixing a bit. 13 Mazda 3. Go to givemetheven.com if you were on hold and didn't get to me. 07 Acura RDX with a buck 04 on it. Greg, where's this car located?
Caller/Guest
We're in the Houston area that did not get flooded.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, and is it leather? Cloth leather.
Caller/Guest
It's got all the bells and whistles. Cd, all wheel drive.
John Clay Wolf
What color?
Caller/Guest
It's gunmetal gray.
John Clay Wolf
Is it it a tech package navigation?
Caller/Guest
No, no, not.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And 100,000 miles, right?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf

Caller/Guest
No, there's payoff.
John Clay Wolf

It's very competitive. Donald and Walter and Jesus and his team are two points back and right in the middle of the ninth frame when he gets the call.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
Wednesday morning, it's baby time.
JD Ryan
Baby time.
Bobo
Luckily, his wife Candace is a bit of a screamer.
JD Ryan
Yes. Yeah.
Bobo
So Antonio get to the hospital. He have no trouble finding her. On the fifth floor of Texas Presbyterian right in the middle of the delivery. But the child, he's not coming. Apparently he have a bigger shoulders like his grandmother, Camila Jubakovsky. And Candace cannot squeeze him all the way out.
John Clay Wolf
All right.
Bobo
We can see his face.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
And Antonio, who have entered the room only for just short moments. He sees a little baby. Look at him and his lovely wife. Labyrinth.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobo
And his newfound bowling expertise, it set in.
JD Ryan
No.
Bobo
He stick his two fingers into the baby's nose.
JD Ryan
No, he did.
Bobo
And pull him right out.
John Clay Wolf
No, he did.
Bobo
And then shovel past him to the waiting nose. I said the doctor. He cut at the cord.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, why didn't we do this earlier?
Bobo
In only a split second. In 14 yards. 14 yards in a high. Hi sp. Despite the scissors. Despite the scissors. Which I would not have done. But any good bowler will tell you.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
It's not the thumb that matters.
John Clay Wolf
No.
JD Ryan
It's the two fingers in the baby's nose.
Bobo
And Candace and little Revers.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
Bobo
His little baby boy. His little. His little boy says, yay, Daddy. And everyone is so happy. Yes. And the little boy. The little J. McCoy.
JD Ryan
Okay.
Bobo
Ramiro Romo IV is now in the world. And I believe he may make a decent bowler.
JD Ryan
Yeah. You're smiling.
Bobo
We will try him on the lines.
Caller/Guest
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you for the cigars.
Bobo
When he's nine.
JD Ryan
Cigars are nice.
Bobo
Yes, they're very nice. I made a blunt for the pre case.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, Romero. It's always great.

John Clay Wolf
The r children at this point. Hey, Josh. Good morning. You're on. Thank you, Romero. Josh, you're on the air. 2010 Mustang 427 Roush with 10,000 miles. What color?
Caller/Guest
It's a black with the silver hockey stripes on the side.
John Clay Wolf
Flood or no flood?
Caller/Guest
No flood.
John Clay Wolf
No flood. I'm gonna have to do this one off the air. I have not. I bought about five of these in my career, and I have not bought one in the past 12 months. So I'm not certain of the exact market today. Mid twenties is what I'm thinking, but 20 to 25 grand. Do you know?
Caller/Guest
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Do you know?
Caller/Guest
I was more curious on what. What y' all thought about it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, go to givemetheven.com and load it up. We'll get you an offer. I'd love to buy it. My name is John Clay Wolf, and I buy cars on the air. You can go to givemetheven.com and also find Operation Airdrop. Right.
Bobo
On his wife's birthday card, he wrote, back in high school, you had long legs and big boobs. Now you've got long boobs and big legs, but I still love you. Happy 35th. She's 29. He drinks so often and heavily that many of his friends and acquaintances confuse his red face color with a good tan. His best pal stole him a carton of BC powders for his 40th birthday. He is the world's biggest son of a bitch. Hey, man, I don't always drink beer, but when I do make mine a natty, like, tall boy. Yeah, buddy.
John Clay Wolf
Now back to the John Clay Wolf Show. Call him toll free. 1, 800, 800, radio. 1, 800, 800 radio.

John Clay Wolf
This is the John Clay Wolf show. What a week. What a week. Let me get a couple cars real quick. JT Dallas and 11 GTI VW. Is it worth five grand?
Caller/Guest
Oh, no, man. Thinking like eight.
John Clay Wolf
Nah, it's got a hundred on it. VWs don't keep running with 100 on them.
Caller/Guest
Oh, it's good, bro. It's good.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. I mean, it might do six. Go to givemetheven.com and let's load it up. And look, Reggie. 15xlt, two wheel drive with 39, 000 miles on it. Cloth. That's the first. What year did they change the body style? Fifteen. Reggie, you there?
Caller/Guest
I'm sorry.
John Clay Wolf
What year. What year did they change the body style? Was it. It was 15, right?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
It's just a new body style with 40, 000 miles. Right around 20, 000, 20, 21. Go to. Give me. Give me the vin.com and load it up. I'll buy it, become a TRD. Is it a real TRD?
Caller/Guest
Yes, it is.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, I got to get to another story. I want to. I want to see pictures. What is it orange by any chance?
Caller/Guest
No, it's white.
John Clay Wolf
All right. What do you. What, what are you thinking on it? I'd like to buy it.
Caller/Guest
Well, basically I, I bought a Honda CRV because, you know, to either sell it or to get rid of that Toyota. So where I don't have payments anymore.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
So I have a 2003 toy Honda CR V that runs very good and I just put some brand new parts on it. And then I have that 14 Toyota Tacoma. So I'm trying to figure out which one I want to.
John Clay Wolf
I really don't care about the CRV. I mean, but the Tacoma. Go to givemetheven.com, put the VIN number in there, and the system will hit you with a bid automatically right out of the gate. And then I'll come back behind it, probably give more than the system bid.
Caller/Guest
Okay, and then how do you get in touch with me when I go.
John Clay Wolf
To givemethevin.com our buyers. We have a room full of buyers with 15 guys in it each. Each customer that comes to the website gets assigned to a buyer automatically and their name will be on the bid sheet. And then we'll go back and forth with you, text or email, however you prefer, phone call, whatever.
Caller/Guest
So just go give me the vin.com and put in my bin and all that.
John Clay Wolf
Yep. Thanks. 800. And you can also go to givemetheven.com and if you want to donate to Operation Airdrop and get a list of FBO. Oh, yeah, I haven't. It's 10 o'.
JD Ryan
Clock. Told that story.
John Clay Wolf
I probably need to reset all this. Where do I start, dude?
JD Ryan
Where do you start? Well, it started really on Tuesday. It's happened so quickly, but everybody's trying to help out with the hurricane. And you got to thinking, hey, I'm a pilot. I know pilot people. What can pilots do? What can general aviation pilots do? Not military, not airlines. What can we do to help?
John Clay Wolf
Well, I was actually thinking I'd like to do something. I don't know what. And my buddy Doug Jackson called me right as I was fixing to go into the Dallas auction on Tuesday morning to sell our cars and he's like, we need to do something, Wolf. Like, yeah, I don't. I mean, I agree.
JD Ryan
I've sold 300 cars.
John Clay Wolf
He's like, why don't we, why don't we grab our airplanes and load them up and put supplies on them and take them down there? Because he's got a plane and I've got a baron.
JD Ryan
Perfect.
John Clay Wolf
And then we got talking and came up with this whole idea to organize all the pilots, all the general aviation world. And we just, right there on that phone call, came up with Operation Airdrop. And when I hung up the phone with him, I called our IT guys and I said, get the URL operation AirDrop. He's like, it's not available. I'm like, put a dash in.
Caller/Guest
In it.
John Clay Wolf
That's available. Okay. Take that. Yeah, Operation Dash Airdrop. I said, make, make a logo and do this. I gave him a bunch of marching orders. Rob. Rob Lydiard, He's a great guy. He's a great programmer. And I was like, I. I'm gonna be busy from 10 to 3. At 3 o' clock I'm gonna call you back and see how we're done. And he was all set up and so much had happened in just those hours. Started a Facebook group for pilots that want to donate their time in their airplanes and haul stuff to the flood area.
JD Ryan
Just started rolling.
John Clay Wolf
Yesterday we had an event event in Conroe.
JD Ryan
This started on Tuesday and the this.
John Clay Wolf
And yesterday we had almost 100 airplanes show up from all over the country.
JD Ryan
Unbelievable.
John Clay Wolf
It's freaking unbelievable, truly.
JD Ryan
And I'm looking at the pictures on Facebook going holy. Because I thought, I thought maybe you'd get 10, 15 airplanes. Yeah. How many?
John Clay Wolf
We didn't count them, but it looked like 100 throughout the. There's one time on the ramp that there was like 50. God, that's at one time. Just loaded up. It lined up to drop off a.
JD Ryan
Galaxy Planes, little planes, Hyper Cubs, everything all the way up to Giant.
John Clay Wolf
A guy from Dallas that owns the Decatur Jet Center.
JD Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Had this old Cub, Piper Cub, but it had a big carrying belly thing on it.
Bobo
I saw that.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
It took him two and a half hours to get down there in this airplane. Because it's slow.
JD Ryan
Yeah, 75.
John Clay Wolf
But he hauled like 1400 pounds of stuff. Oh my God. Cuz when I saw that, I'm like, what the hell can you fit in that? And then when they show, I'm like, you can fit a lot. Yeah. We had a fellow come in from Scottsdale in a turboprop Cheyenne we had a fellow come up from Mexico and a 172. We had a fellow come up, come down from North East Iowa, up by the Minnesota border in a. Cheyenne, Oklahoma pilots, Louisiana pilots, ton of Texas pilots, guys from Austin that listened to the show that popped over. It was neat. It was, it was startling, if you want to know the truth.
JD Ryan
It got to the point where the air traffic control system actually gave people their own code, the pilots, their own code to get in.
John Clay Wolf
Well, it didn't get to that. It did online when we were organizing it. But one of our chief guys is a FAA controller and he used to work for the National Guard and worked Katrina perfect. So he got us an emergency code for our group. So everybody in Operation Airdrop, you know, we're posting it on the kind of like the Cajun Navy thing on Facebook where you see all these posts and this going on, right? That's what we're doing with these. We're coordinating on these airplanes. We move medicine from Wisconsin to Houston. We picked. We're picking up nurses in medicine in Dallas this morning, hauling nurses to the Beaumont area. And we're getting these special codes from the controllers for our shipments. I mean, they're like recognizing us as a legit deal, right? We have to be careful because you know me, I'm like, let's go. And he's like, hang on, dude, you can't cowboy your ass in there. That's exactly what he said. You cannot cowboy your ass in there with these military controlled fields.
JD Ryan
No, these are air traffic control. And there's a temp, what they call a temporary flight restriction in that area.
John Clay Wolf
Where you can't even go.
JD Ryan
You can't go anywhere.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but we can get in, but we've got to have their. We got to wait. And like all our pilots are like last night, all night, they're posted. What's the, the, what's the mission assignment, Sir? What's the mission assignments? And everybody's all jacked up, ready to go, loaded. But we don't have our codes yet. So this morning. I don't have these.
JD Ryan
They released the code.
John Clay Wolf
They released the code. We did not go. We sent some special units into Jack Brooks in Beaumont. Okay, Beaumont, but right north of there. And I have it written down. It's all on our side.
JD Ryan
And the cool part is even if you're not a pilot, you can still help. You can bring these items that are on the website to what's called an fbo, which is a fixed based operator. Think of it like a marina for Airplanes, it's where people go to get fuel and they tie down and all that stuff. So it's at every little airport around the world for that matter. But some of these folks have volunteered to be the local drop off area for say, Addison Airport. And there's a place called Millionaire. You can drop that, drop things off there. But the list of where you can drop things off, even if you're not a pilot is on the website. It's operation-airdrop.com.
John Clay Wolf
If you just go to givemetheven.com we have a banner on the top of that and the radio show page and you can click right through. And I'm sorry today that I am stuttering a lot.
JD Ryan
Are you busy?
John Clay Wolf
I mean, I've got a lot going on here.
JD Ryan
I'm getting emails down there. Yesterday.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I've got a lot of emails coming from all these guys. I. I don't know what I got myself into, but I'm glad to do it.
JD Ryan
And the cool part is you're not having to do it alone. People just volunteer from everywhere.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I know. It happened. And I. I've got the new airport that was reassigned to all of our pilots near Beaumont. But remember, they need a fuel up before they go because they're out of gas down there. So you're not going to get a backload of fuel out of there. You got to be careful. Operation out of gas.
JD Ryan
But you will get a tax deduction.
John Clay Wolf
Absolutely. And we're teamed up with the Salvation Army. I just got an email from one of the bigwigs of the Salvation army we're seeing. I mean, there's a lot of neat.
JD Ryan
Stuff going on, but your radio network has helped and they're doubling some of your commercials.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. Yeah. So when you hear these PSAs going on on these radio stations. Yes, that. That's from my radio friends joining the radio network because we're on in 17 cities. That's why I was like, let's do some good with this thing, right? You know, besides buy used cars.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
We still want to buy used cars because that's what makes the world go around. And we'll still beat the hell out of Carmax. Actually, I'll pay $200 dollars for a CarMax deal I don't beat.
Bobo
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. What?
JD Ryan
When did that happen?
John Clay Wolf
Now.
JD Ryan
Just now?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I can beat them.
JD Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
They're nothing to me.
JD Ryan
So if you don't beat Carmax, you get 200 bucks.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. But you got to send us the current picture of the offer and that's Their offers are good for a week. Don't just tell me about what they offered you. Show me and I'll give you 200 for the option to beat it or pass. And nine times out of 10 I'm gonna beat it. But. But yeah, hang on.
JD Ryan
This week.
John Clay Wolf
There's Doug. Doug. Doug. Good morning. You're on the air.
Caller/Guest
Hey, John, Clay, how are you this morning?
John Clay Wolf
I was just trying to keep up, man. Trying to keep up. So what's the latest? You know, we got all screwed up yesterday. Crisscross when the military took over the Jack Brooks Field. And that was our assignment where. What are we doing now?
Caller/Guest
Oh my gosh, man, it's crazy. We've got four planes in the air this morning coming out of Arizona. We've got guys loading right now fixing to go down to the new airdrop location down there in East Texas. We've got several crews on the ground hauling water down to the guys in. Where was it they needed that yesterday? I don't remember the name of town, but they're on their way down there this morning.
John Clay Wolf
Remember, this is the fella that called me Tuesday morning and said, hey, why don't we load up our airplanes?
JD Ryan
Just you two?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, just us two. And head down and try to do something right. And then now, now we've turned into dispatchers for the region or the country.
JD Ryan
Actual Air Force? Yeah.
Caller/Guest
It's gotten a little bit. It's gotten a little bit bigger than that. I didn't expect. And we're at 410 pilots as of about 30 minutes ago.
John Clay Wolf
No kidding. I just saw.
Caller/Guest
I've been on the Houston newspaper at 5:30 and got on the phone and I've been on the phone, literally, I haven't even gotten eaten breakfast yet. It's just been nuts.
John Clay Wolf
Right? What are, what are you. Are you heading anywhere today? Are you just gonna work at the house?
Caller/Guest
I think I'm getting more done here, actually. I can't. You know, when you and I landed yesterday and I dropped you off and I got back here, I had 50 something Facebook notifications, about 20 something text messages and about 40 missed calls.
John Clay Wolf
I had those. Give me those, give me the VIN Drivers. Pick us up at those Salvation army employees that we airlifted back yesterday. They picked them up and took them to Dallas. And are the nurses getting moved this morning?
Caller/Guest
I have not heard yet. I'm having trouble getting back with the. The guys down there on the ground that we're needing that done. But I did hear from Melissa down at the Coast Guard in Galveston and she needs the supplies this morning, so she's getting us a list. We're flying. We're flying actual meat. Travis Horshy donate a bunch of meat, and we're flying that down south this morning so that they can cook that up for the volunteers. We got a lot of things moving, man. It's crazy. It's just this thing is kind of starting to get a. Just a momentum and a flow that's. It's crazy. It's working.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's actually. Actually did something in my life that worked. I can't believe it.
JD Ryan
Well, we're having. This worked quicker. Work very quick. You've done a lot of things at work.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I. You know, go ahead.
Caller/Guest
No, I was going to say. I was going to say something stupid, but I'm not going to say that on the air.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well, Doug Jackson and. And Glenn are my partners in this. And what's the man's name? I haven't met him yet, but he's with the faa. He's an air traffic controller. He's. He's doing so much. Kelly, Brian Kelly is kind of the liaison between us, the civilians and the government.
JD Ryan
The government side.
John Clay Wolf
And he's done a lot.
JD Ryan
That sounds like it.
John Clay Wolf
Now he's. He's key.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Would you agree, Doug?
Caller/Guest
That guy, he's the real deal. He called me this morning and he's working on getting us permission with the FAA to get around these TFRs down there. And I had a buddy call in this morning for me, just checking on me. And I'd forgotten all about him. He's a pilot for the dps. And I said, man, we're having trouble getting in down there. He goes, did I not tell you what I'm doing? He said, I'm part of the command center that's. That's working, that TFR zone. So he's down in College Station, and I put him with Brian. And they're getting a squat codes right now so that we'll have a list of squat codes that'll be assigned just to us so we can get those out to our pilots and they can go into these places without.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, and also. Also get Rob to put a banner on the top of your company Texas custom trailers for a link back to the airdrop webpage that shows all the donations. What. What the needs list is, what they call it, what they need and where to take it. And then our pilots can come into those airports and get it.
JD Ryan
Sure.
Caller/Guest
You know what's a great idea?
John Clay Wolf
What's been confusing, not confusing, but is broken information. So, like Doug tells me, or I think that, that somebody tells me I've been the mouthpiece for a lot of this. And, and, you know, we, our next mission is this. And then you find out, no, you can't do this because of this, this, and this. So we're having to slow down with our announcements a little bit and be more careful to make sure we get it right the first time.
Caller/Guest
I drill holes in the ground. This and one more of these would be two of these I've ever done in my life. I mean, when I called you Tuesday, I had no idea what I wanted to do. I just, I just knew I wanted.
John Clay Wolf
To do it, do something. And everybody wants to do something and we're trying to give them an excuse to do something and an easy opportunity.
Caller/Guest
We just had the. We had the most amazing people come on board like Brian and Glenn and Robert Johnson and, you know, Travis Porsche and Chip mclaughlin. All these guys are coming on board that. It's just amazing that just about the time we think we need something, the phone rings and it's something that you haven't even met.
John Clay Wolf
You haven't even met Brett Hobson anymore yet. He's the vintage flight museum out of Fort Worth. They were gearing all up to do the same thing and they've given us all of their resources.
JD Ryan
They were just about to do it and they jumped on board and they're.
John Clay Wolf
Gonna be pulling their DC3 out of Meacham every day starting Wednesday with a huge load going south. So anyway, it's all coming together, Doug. I appreciate it. I gotta get. We've got to go to commercial break.
JD Ryan
We'll be back.

I haven't set any up in Arkansas yet. I don't know if we've got anything set up in Oklahoma yet. Which time falls? Abilene. We do not have anything set up yet, but we will. We're working. We put this together so fast.
JD Ryan
I was going to say it's all coming.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's that deal yesterday in Conroe with 100 airplanes showing up with supplies. Took all day. So that blew a day of prep.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And that's what Doug, when he called in a minute ago, he's like, I'm doing more good at home working, setting up than being in the. In the field.
JD Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
Travis, an 07 Benz E350 with 53,000 miles. You there? Hello? Hey, Travis. 07 Mercedes was 50,000 miles, is that right?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
It's an E350. Sedan or coupe?
Caller/Guest
It is the coupe.
John Clay Wolf
So it's a two door.
Caller/Guest
No, I'm sorry, it's sedan, four door. It's midnight blue, fully loaded, sunroof, aftermarket wheels, 20 inch rims.
John Clay Wolf
Do you have the factory still?
JD Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
I want those. I don't want the twenties. Keep the twenties. Go sell them on ebay. Because the miles on this car, if they're actual, they're good. They're. They're better than normal. So making it look more factory fresh makes it more appealing. Makes it. It has a. Anyway, I'll give seven grand if the car has factory wheels is nice.
JD Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
All right, thanks.
Caller/Guest
All right.
John Clay Wolf
Let's go. Casey. I know, I know we've spent a lot of the show on flood stuff today, but we. Yeah, we're gonna do your morning John. Top 10.

How are you doing, sir?
Randy
Good, good.
JD Ryan
Looking good. You're looking good.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, you know, we.
JD Ryan
We love our first ladies. We love.
Randy
We love the Melania Trump.
JD Ryan
We really do. She's not exactly on the speaking tour much. We can't understand, but people were picking up.
John Clay Wolf
We've got a supermodel hot from Europe, has broken English and wears high heels.
JD Ryan
High blooded, check it and see.
John Clay Wolf
And had nude photos in Vanity Fair back in the 80s. I mean, this is. I mean, yeah, she can't talk, but.
JD Ryan
God, she can dress.
John Clay Wolf
To hell with Donald. How about Melania?
JD Ryan
So you know this. People were picking on her because of her shoes or something or other. Well, here we have the top 10 first lady fashion faux pas over the years they haven't all dressed perfect like number. Jackie Kennedy's T back and tiara look didn't go over. Big Lawrence Harding's disco dress. She was ahead of her time. Michelle Obama's $720 tennis shoes while talking about being in touch with the common folks.

God, he's tough.
JD Ryan
He is very, very tough. Yeah, but still, it was just. He's in boxing. I mean, he's like a.
Randy
Like a pit bull with a head full of Nazi speed.
John Clay Wolf
Would you fight him?
JD Ryan
You know, I wouldn't fight him.
Randy
I wouldn't fight him.
JD Ryan
You wouldn't fight him? You're a chipmunk.

JD Ryan
20 bucks, right? 4 to 1 odds.
Randy
Taking it easy. I've been winning a long time.
JD Ryan
Right?
Randy
Just enjoying myself.
JD Ryan
Think you have a betting issue.
Randy
So my girl Sharonda's boy, Reese.
JD Ryan
Okay. Boyfriend Reese.
Randy
Yeah. That's a chipmunk. Four years old, still lives in the house and ain't got no job and sits around smoking grass with equally worthless scumbag friends.
JD Ryan
I got you.
Randy
Yeah, that Reese.
JD Ryan
Another feeling.
Randy
Apparently he caught wind of my little. Little angle.
JD Ryan
Oh.
Randy
And was equally enchanted by the potential for cashing in on a long odds wager.
JD Ryan
But it's a long odds, so he.
Randy
Made that bet with everybody he knows all over town. And he apparently did not use the five dollar scale I suggested.
JD Ryan
I got you. So he's a little deep.
Randy
I've had somebody coming to collect from every single tree on our block every day, all week long. He even made that stupid bid with Midnight the dog.
JD Ryan
My dog. Really?
Randy
Yeah.
JD Ryan
Oh, no.
Randy
Speaking strictly as a chipmunk.
JD Ryan
Yeah. Didn't you.
Randy
Don't punk a dog on a bed.
JD Ryan
No, yeah, I know.
Randy
Because a dog, though they can be quite friendly and helpful where felines are.
JD Ryan
Concerned, generally will eat your ass if.
Randy
You punk on a bed.
JD Ryan
Yeah, you. You owe them money, right? Oh, that's bad. I'm sorry to hear this.
Randy
I mean, they would have won by TKO, which would have been 8 to 1, in which my uncle Scooter also tricked Reese into. And of course, Reese went on the lamb about three seconds after the fight. And so far, including Scooter, he owes right around neighborhood, $540. That's a lot of nuts, J.D.
JD Ryan
A lot of nuts.
Randy
Yes. And guess what? Suddenly everybody's dropped the step part out of stepdad and expecting me to pay up for my all of a sudden, flesh and blood, half squirrel, chipmunk son. Of course his mama's all pissed off, thinks I'm a degenerate gambler because I give him the idea.
JD Ryan
Well, you did, damn it, you did.
Randy
I may go on the land my damn self.
JD Ryan
No, you're not.
Randy
Just take my camel and go.
JD Ryan
No, you're not. Go anywhere. You're not gonna run.

Caller/Guest
Yeah, I'm here.
John Clay Wolf
Sorry about that. I'm here. Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Hey John. Yeah, I just tuned in. I listen to you every Saturday up here in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Yeah, and I listen to you while I'm on my tractor and that's what I'm doing right now. Driving down the road and you know, of course been watching the news on the flood and everything and. And I knew that this is going to affect the market. But I just want to get your take on how these flooded cars are going to be Dealt with.
John Clay Wolf
Well, there's going to. It's going to be a buyer beware situation in the retail market. Remember the dealers. If you buy a flood car from a dealer that's unannounced, you can push it back on them. If you buy a flood car from an individual that's unannounced, you bought a blood car. Does that make sense? I mean, so you're safer dealing with the dealer network because they're licensed and bonded to have to make some announcements like this. The public is not. The insurance companies. The big insurance companies are real good about crushing them. The smaller. Yeah, the smaller, you know, they'll take them from their claimants and they'll crush them and sell the metal. They don't want the parts on the road. They don't want, you know, liability. The liability of an airbag not deploying four years from now. That got corrosion. So they would rather just crush them. Some insurances keep them and sell them at salvage sales. But the problem is, is those VIN numbers still get out there and then get recycled back into the public of unknowing people. And then the insurance company's got a liability for not crushing it.
JD Ryan
So they're very careful. The big guys.
John Clay Wolf
There's a million cars that came out of the market on the coast. They have to be replaced. So the car market's going to stay high from now to next July.
Caller/Guest
Interesting.
John Clay Wolf
It just is. I mean, you know, if you have a hundred thousand pounds of wheat and depend in demand for a hundred thousand pounds of wheat, and all of a sudden you have £50,000 of wheat. Wheat. Wheat's more expensive. Sure. We saw.
JD Ryan
We saw it happen with gas. Even though that was fake.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. It's just that simple. This is real basic common sense commodities. And these are commodities. And we've just had a million of the supply pulled out. So that's what I know.
Caller/Guest
Gosh, that's a lot of cars.
John Clay Wolf
It's a lot of cars. Yeah, it's a lot of cars.
Bobo
It's.
John Clay Wolf
It's unbelievable. And if I were a repl person looking for. For replacement, I would start shopping as soon as I can and as far away from the flood zone as I can because the cars are going to go up. They went up. Okay. We have a good friend on the east coast that is a huge wholesaler. They saw the market adjustment yesterday in Manheim, Pennsylvania.
JD Ryan
That far away?
John Clay Wolf
Yes. All these dealers are going all over the country to reload.
Bobo
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
So now what the. Guess what the new problem is. Truck trucking. Oh, of Course you gotta have a trucking problem.
JD Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So all the trucks are just completely screwed and backed up, back ordered. You can't. So these guys are buying cars all over the country and they can't get them.
JD Ryan
Can't get them down.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, well, it'll happen. Yeah, it's just, you know, cause and effect.
JD Ryan
So this is like a hundred year flood.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's a hundred year flood. Thanks, Paul. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. 15 Mercedes E350. Good morning, Kyle.
Caller/Guest
Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
What city?
Caller/Guest
I'm in Houston, Texas.
John Clay Wolf
Flood or no flood?
Caller/Guest
No flood.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. What part? What about the people around you? Do you know a lot of people that got hit?
Caller/Guest
Well, I'm actually north of downtown and downtown is where the majority of the flooding because of the bayous run. I was north of that outside of 6:10.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Caller/Guest
So I was. I was up, elevated and closer to spring in the Woodlands.
John Clay Wolf
Did you sit in your house for two days?
Caller/Guest
No, sir.
John Clay Wolf
I mean I was looking at the traffic cams on the. I forgot what that site is, but it shows all the Houston interstates. And I mean for two days I would look at those traffic cameras all around Houston and there was no traffic on the highways at all. It was crazy.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, well, parts of the freeway were closed. I actually was up near Conroe at a buddy's house and they got a curfew in effect, so, you know, it was pretty quiet down down near the city.
John Clay Wolf
We were in Conroe yesterday. Our Operation Airdrop was in Conroe and I spent the whole day there and good people down there. We had 100 planes fly in with supplies and the loading these Salvation army trucks and they're running them around. And then they found out we were there and there were a lot of churches that had supplies and they didn't know how to distribute them. You know, it's weird that there's. Everybody wants to donate, but a lot of times, for instance, port, I think it's either Port Aransas or Rockport.
JD Ryan
They're right there together.
John Clay Wolf
Their jail cells are full of supplies.
JD Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
They don't know how to distribute them. So the mayor said, no more.
JD Ryan
We're full. We can't get.
John Clay Wolf
They don't know what to do. So we sent through Operation Air Drop, our network. We have in. A lot of guys think here's the truth about airplanes. Most these guys have money.
Bobo
Sure.
JD Ryan
Right, right. Of course, if you afford airplane, you can afford.
John Clay Wolf
And you pay a lot of taxes.
JD Ryan

The wheels. The wheels would say AMG on them. They would be embossed with AMG on them. If it's.
Caller/Guest
No, no, they don't. The tires actually only have about 200 miles on it. I literally just.
John Clay Wolf
Bob, then you're serious, then you're serious about selling? Because of the. Of the 12 years I've been doing. 11 years I've been doing this show. The common denominator that I've always found with people that are serious about selling is they just left. Discount tire. It's so true, it's weird. Fresh oil change, a fresh set of skins. Okay, we're ready to sell it. Does it have navigation?
Caller/Guest

Operation Airdrop News.
John Clay Wolf
Michael. Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Good morning. Hey. Last year when we had the big flood in Louisiana, they were supposed to crush all the cars, right? I had sold a few cars to California and what they did was they were bringing them to Mexico with flood titles and changing the titles out and cleaning them up and bringing them back across the border.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
JD Ryan
Yes.
Caller/Guest
And I had an 18 wheeler loaded up with them at new cars. And I asked the guy said, these are flood cars. What are you doing with them? He said, we bring them to Mexico, we sell them and we get a clean title on them.
John Clay Wolf
I'll be damn.
Caller/Guest
Yeah. So just, just be careful. By the way, I've sold you a couple cars from a Jag to Escalades. You've always done what you said you would do, and we're extremely happy, buddy.

JD Ryan
Correct.
John Clay Wolf
Don't expect to refuel.
JD Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Take a leak on the grass on the side of the road.
JD Ryan
Because of the timing, you're going to need to be on the ground and get off. It's not going to be sit around and talk about airplanes.
John Clay Wolf
Right. It's not a fly in. It's not a pancake breakfast. Fly in.
JD Ryan
Exactly what pilots love to do, sit around talking about airplanes.
John Clay Wolf
That's not what this is the overnight deal. They really like to drink in the evenings is what I've noticed. Notice too, Mike. An 07 FJ Cruiser with 104. Is it a four wheel drive or two? Average. Rough or clean?
Caller/Guest
Clean.
John Clay Wolf
11 to 12 grand.
JD Ryan
Okay.
Caller/Guest

Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
What do you.
Caller/Guest
I thought, I thought you, you know, somewhere in that neighborhood.
John Clay Wolf
If I went to 13, do I buy it? Let me look it up. Hold on. I'm gonna look something up real quick.
JD Ryan
Standby.
John Clay Wolf
I'm gonna look up at a. Some comps in a market report real quick. We got a hundred thousand mile. Mmm. I'll give 13 if you bring it to me. You run it to Fort Worth. I'll give you 13 if I got to come get it. I'll give you 12. 5. I'll give you 12. 7 5, 0. I'll do 12. 7. It cost me about 250 to run out to Abilene from Dallas to go get them.
Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
But I got a check. I got a check and it'll cash. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio.
JD Ryan
What else is going on? A lot of people are helping out. Matter of fact, title Perry just took the love thy neighbor thing to the next level. He is donating a million dollars.
John Clay Wolf
How does he have a million dollars?
JD Ryan
He says he's donating a million dollars to the Hurricane Harvey. Yeah. How does he have a million dollars. Really? And 250. This is a. I don't know if this is serious, but it says250,000 of that is going to Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church in Houston to make sure they have all the things they need. So he may be. That may be real, but he's saying he's given a million bucks.
Bobo
It's cool.
John Clay Wolf
I saw Floyd Mayweather supposed to be donating 100 million. There's no way.
JD Ryan
No, no.
John Clay Wolf
You got suckered by the fake news, Jim. I just said there's no way.
JD Ryan
Yeah. No, it's not clickbait that are real news, though. Best buy says the $42 bottled water near Houston, that was a mistake. It really happened. They did list that on for a while, but it was a mistake. And they're saying, we're really sorry. What's happening is there's a few people and there are some gas stations doing this that are price gouging. And they're getting caught and they're. They're going, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, wait. No, we didn't mean that. What we meant was there's One of the gas stations listed $8 a gallon, 8.99. And they said, no, no, we meant 3.99. That was because you'll get turned into the government. They'll come out. They'll come after you for price. Price gouging.
John Clay Wolf
It's over four bucks, right? I think it's what it is currently. Yeah. No, no, that's where they.
JD Ryan
Oh, yeah, yeah. If it's over. Yeah. If it's over $4 right now, that's considered price gouging.
John Clay Wolf
You live in a small town. Yeah. I mean, you guys will gather over. You guys will gather and fundraise over a death of a pet. Yeah. Seriously, what's going on in your small town?
Bobo
When Merle Haggard died, nobody worked the.
JD Ryan
Next day or the next week.
Bobo
No, it's true. Very sentimental folks, jj. Easily. Easily grabbed, too, by hysteria. And, you know, you're saying that the shortage news was fake. Kind of. But it was really. It was really caused by group mentality in hysteria because you just.
John Clay Wolf
No, it was really caused by gas stations running out of fuel and the transport trucks not able to load them up.
Bobo
Everybody's filling up at the same time. But our transport trucks in this part of the world, fellas come from Oklahoma and Tyler.
JD Ryan
Yeah. So it was real, but it was created by fake news.
John Clay Wolf
So there was a shortage.
JD Ryan
Yeah, the shortage was created by people rushing the gas stations because social media said there was a shortage. So everybody runs to the gas stations. Now we have a real shortage.
John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobo
And he fixed it anyway. He dug a hole and stuck it in the ground and made a big old flower bed out of of me.
JD Ryan
Really?
Bobo
Yeah, and it worked as a real good coon trap too. He had a good time catching them coons and letting them go. He taught one of them to play checkers.
JD Ryan
To play checkers?
Bobo
Yeah.
JD Ryan
Really?
Bobo
You ever play checkers with a coon?
JD Ryan
No, I never have. And I don't believe you have either.

John Clay Wolf
He got hands. Now the chicken at Aquamarina Springs. That's real.
JD Ryan
That's real. That is real.
John Clay Wolf
That is real.
JD Ryan
And there's one down in Austin too. That'll play chicken s bingo with you. Will they win the chicken? Well, the chicken walks around on the board. You pick a spot, he walks around on the board until he poops. And whoever lays.

John Clay Wolf
No, there's a damn chicken down there.
Randy
Play.
John Clay Wolf
Play. Isn't there?
Bobo
They got it behind the glass window. Yeah, so that you can't choke him.
JD Ryan
You don't need to choke anything.
Bobo
No, but if he beats you out, he calls time to play and he beat you five games out of seven.
JD Ryan
Says you gambled and you've lost. So there's no reason to hurt the chicken.
Bobo
No, but in Aquamarine Springs you got a constitutional right to demand satisfaction. You don't from a damn tic tac toe cheat.
John Clay Wolf
Elvin, they're calling for you next door. They need your help over there too.
Bobo
He smirked at me with that beak like smirk.
John Clay Wolf

JD Ryan
An engineer?
Bobo
Yeah, some sort. But we may be in the wrong business.
JD Ryan
No, no, not at all.
Bobo
Can you train a chicken to play tic tac toe?
JD Ryan
Yes, you can.
Bobo
I'm fascinated.
JD Ryan
But you're making billions of dollars on the radio. Why would you want to do that?
Bobo
It's like training Ted Cruz to run for office.
JD Ryan
Well, it happened, actually.
Bobo
It actually did. And he's. And he's won five out of seven thus far. You think there's anyone out there who might like to choke Ted Cruz?
JD Ryan
No, I don't think so.
Bobo
No.
JD Ryan
No, I don't believe we're gonna do that.
Bobo
Maybe just shake hands with him.
JD Ryan
Yes.
Bobo
Thanks for your service, Rush.

JD Ryan
Everybody was amazed.
Bobo
He's been very. Actually quite presidential about it, even. I'm shocked.

That was a great thing. $1 million. When the Cowboys had their last preseason game cancelled and the Texans went on back to Houston, the Cowboys decided to have A practice at AT&T Stadium and at the same time have a telethon on the sidelines.
JD Ryan
I didn't with a lot of the.
Bobo
Old, the older, you know, former players and current players manning the phones.
JD Ryan
Cool.
Bobo
And they raised, I think it was 2.3 million.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. A million from Jerry on that call. So cool.
Bobo
In an afternoon or during practice.
JD Ryan
Recorded.
Bobo
That's awesome.
JD Ryan
That's so fun.
John Clay Wolf
Abilene just called in with a 50,000 mile Camry. I'll give 8,000 for it if you got one. If it's nice.
Bobo
$8,000.
John Clay Wolf
Dez should be able to say $1,000,000 pretty easily, actually.
Bobo
Yeah.
JD Ryan
Really? Like million dollars, Jerry. That's cute.
John Clay Wolf
Des could have matched it with 100G.
JD Ryan
JJ Watts, you know, he started a fundraiser on Sunday to aid victims of Hurricane Harvey. He wanted to get a goal of 200,000 bucks. Fair enough, right? Currently he's at $15 million. Amazing. Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Amazing.
JD Ryan
Started out to get 250,000. He got $15 million on his fundraiser. So it's just cool that everybody's coming to EA and watch the Air Force kick in Operation Airdrop and everything you guys have done this week and you're going to see this week is going to be. You think it's done a lot this week. You wait this next week, one of the news agencies is going to pick it up. I say before Monday because it's a light news weekend and looking for good feeling stories. And you're just there.
John Clay Wolf
You'll have a lot more planes coming in.
Bobo
Boom.
JD Ryan
People all over the country are going to be coming in.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
JD Ryan
Yes. And so be ready for this to be crazy. Really? Yes.
John Clay Wolf
So I haven't worked one of these deals before. You've been involved in this stuff for years.
JD Ryan
Push. Yeah. All it takes is somebody like myself that I'd be looking at this and I'd see the PWR news story. I go, oh, this is gold, man. That is. That is media gold. It's easy.
John Clay Wolf
It's sexy because it's airplane airplanes. Yeah.
JD Ryan
It's pilots. It's doing good things. It's Texas. It's airplane airplanes. It's everything that's sexy on television. They love this stuff. Eat it up. So just a pitch meeting. We didn't even go past. Hey, I got an idea. Like, why aren't you on it? Get out of this meeting. Go. Yeah. It'd be over.
John Clay Wolf
I can't believe that we had so many people from all over the country. I mean, hey, I've got a Phenom 100, you know, badass jet sitting in Miami ready to go. Give. Give us the orders. You know, he, he emails me that. Also I have a ch. A Challenger. I mean, not a Challenger, but a Gulf Stream 4 ready to go. How much ramp space do you have? We're going to pull the seats out of it. So they're going to yank the seats out of these private jets and send them up. Yesterday in Conroe, they were just shuttling. There was a citation, an old one Y. But they were just running drops. Conroe, Beaumont Conroe. Just like a dirt. A sand hauler just back and forth with a dump truck. Yep. But that's what it takes. I mean it's, that's just taking off.
JD Ryan
So quickly because everybody loves doing it.
John Clay Wolf
It's so bad down there, dude.
JD Ryan
I know you've seen it first time.
John Clay Wolf
It's so bad. It's. It's apocalyptic, man.
JD Ryan
That's what they say. I remember last Saturday somebody poo pooed me for saying it was going to be the worst storm Texas had ever seen.
John Clay Wolf
And I believe I was right. Texas.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Everybody said you said it'll be the, the worst storm, hurricane, devastation of ever. In history.
JD Ryan
In history is what you said in Texas.
John Clay Wolf
I thought you said in history and I think you're right on that.
JD Ryan
I'm come very close for Texas for sure. Yeah, absolutely. For Texas it's like 100.
John Clay Wolf
Well, it's this Katrina was $5.6 billion.
JD Ryan
We haven't even seen the beginning of this one.
John Clay Wolf
So that's. Yeah. If it gets there, then you know, when you think of the population difference, Katrina, I mean, New Orleans in Baton Rouge, I mean south Louisiana is like. I don't know the numbers, but it is about a million five. Total. Total. Total or a million.
Bobo
Yeah. Big population.
John Clay Wolf
I mean just Houston alone.
Bobo
Yeah. 1901. Galveston. Right. Was a bad one, but it wasn't nearly as populated.
JD Ryan
Not populated back then.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
JD Ryan
Now you got.
John Clay Wolf
I was thinking 100,000 cars, maybe 200,000 cars because they weren't during rush hour. So they, they didn't get flooded out because Houston. Houston will flood in a shower.
JD Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I've seen pictures of cars all over the highways, littered all over the highways when they get caught in rush hour in the floods. But this is bad.
JD Ryan
It's just a lot worse.
John Clay Wolf
The number I keep hearing. So there was a. I think the Post put out Tuesday morning half a million cars. And the number we're hearing now is pushing a million.
JD Ryan
A million cars to be replaced.
John Clay Wolf
A million cars. Car dealerships gone.
JD Ryan
Unbelievable numbers.
John Clay Wolf
Unbelievable, unbelievable numbers. The price of used cars, the demand on them is going to change considerably.
JD Ryan
Well, I guess.
John Clay Wolf
Richard, good morning. You're on the air.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, I've got a 2011 Camry LE with 54,000 miles.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, is it a four cylinder or six?
Caller/Guest
Four.
John Clay Wolf
Eight grand.
Caller/Guest
Eight.
John Clay Wolf
Eight. Eight, eight. Hang on, I'm looking here. Here's again, I'm still thinking old market, but here's. It's an ellie. It's an 11 Le Sedan, four cylinder. Here's I'm looking at some comps. Have sold eight grand. 85, 73. These are all miles in the 40s. Then you get into the 50s, you got 88. 8, 73, 88, 84, 3,000. That must have been a turd. 6,800. You know, eight to nine grand is the money on it. I mean, the market's up a little bit. That car is pretty replaceable. I mean, would I give nine grand for it? Probably, yeah. But that's it. 800. 800. 723 4. Don't even bother calling in. Just go to the website, givemetheven.com and.
JD Ryan
Load up there with all the bad news. I have some good news coming from Amazon.
John Clay Wolf
Maybe my computer will hit them harder than I am. Maybe my thinking's not right.
JD Ryan
Does the computer program automatically adjust? Adjust. Okay, good deal. Well, there's a lot of bad news. There's a lot of concern. There's a lot of worry. The gas issues and everything else. Amazon has finally come up with some very, very good news. Amazon prime now will deliver to your home in less than two hours alcohol, beer, wine and spirits.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, what about in dry counties?
JD Ryan
It's actually that. Well, what they've done is they've started out in 12 cities, none in Texas yet because we have all the blue laws and the Texas problems. But in Cincinnati, Chicago, Columbus, Louisiana, Minneapolis, New York, Phoenix, Portland, Richmond, Virginia, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle, you can get alcohol in your home.
John Clay Wolf
What about marijuana from Amazon? You know, it's coming next.
JD Ryan
That's gonna be the. That's gonna be the next big thing. I mean, is there gonna be a day that people never leave their homes out? Amazon just brings you whatever you need. Hookers.
John Clay Wolf
You can leave your home, but you'll be free to do other things and shopping.
JD Ryan
Prime hookers.
Bobo
I like it.
John Clay Wolf
Prime hookers. And. And what's the. What's the Uber? The cheap Uber called Uber X. Yeah, Ex Uber. Like, you've got the four different grades Melania style, right? I don't. God, you guys are terrible. Y' all are a bunch of bad people. I want to tell.
JD Ryan
You're bad, jd.
John Clay Wolf
You're bad. Bad Bobo. You're bad.
JD Ryan
I'm the wor.
John Clay Wolf
And Turley, you. You're bad. You still say it much? Well, so now that this thing's hit.
JD Ryan
The news, a lot of great stories coming out.
John Clay Wolf
We're going to get blown up.
JD Ryan
Yeah, we still need.
John Clay Wolf
So I'm just going to be media for the next five days. Spokesman. I better. I'm glad. I'm glad. I just got a haircut. Good.
JD Ryan
You look. You look marvelous, darling.
John Clay Wolf
I need to get my. My speech down.
Bobo
Yeah, stay out.
John Clay Wolf
You gotta be careful not to take too much credit.
JD Ryan
That's the thing. We always use we. Like Garth Brooks would say, hey, you know what? We're in town and we're doing this, we're doing that. Garth, it's you. No, it's us.
John Clay Wolf
And remember, you need more donations and everybody can still help.
JD Ryan
Everybody. You don't have to be a pilot to help. Yeah. Go to the website, givemetheven.com and click on the banner.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
JD Ryan
It'll tell you what to donate and where in your area to go.
John Clay Wolf
And we. We need Arkansas. There's pilots in Arkansas, plenty of them. We need fixed base operators to sign up as donation drops. So join Operation Airdrop the pilot page on Facebook and go to your FBOs. And in Oklahoma, too. And the good news for pilots in Wichita Falls, Amarillo. We haven't talked about Amarillo today. Everybody that can hear this message, we need to get these FBOs set up as drop centers. FBO are fixed base operators at the airports, local airports where you buy gas. And so then we can post it on our website. And then the public will know where to take the donations. And then we'll dispatch those loads to our pilot network of whatever it is now. 300, 400. And they'll get them delivered.
JD Ryan
Are they still getting the tax credit?
John Clay Wolf
Tax credit on fuel? Absolutely. 10 seconds left. My name is John Clay Wolf. It's been an interesting day. Again, sorry for the stuttering, but it's not my normal. Normal Saturday program. Are our. We. We will be back next Saturday.
Bobo
Locker out.
John Clay Wolf
I'm out. Back to the money. Time is money. Let's get.

Host: John Clay Wolfe
Episode Theme: Responding to Disaster: Operation Airdrop, Harvey Relief, and the New Car Market
This episode of The John Clay Wolfe Show centered around the Gulf Coast aftermath following Hurricane Harvey. The show featured a blend of the crew’s characteristic humor, audience call-ins about cars, and—most importantly—a detailed, in-the-moment look into the rapid formation and execution of "Operation Airdrop," an impromptu network of pilots and ground volunteers delivering supplies to hurricane victims. The conversation included the impact of the hurricane on local communities and the car market, shoutouts to volunteers and donors, and healthy doses of pop culture, satire, and music banter.
"I was actually thinking I'd like to do something. I don't know what. And my buddy Doug Jackson called me right as I was fixing to go into the Dallas auction…. Right there on that phone call, came up with Operation Airdrop."
—John Clay Wolfe [77:40]
"If these pilots can get donation receipts for their fuel, then this will keep them coming back. You mean give a pilot a reason to fly, really?"
—John Clay Wolfe [13:00]
“That car was worth 10 grand. I'll offer you $2,500.”
—John Clay Wolfe [30:10]"If you have a hundred thousand pounds of wheat and demand for a hundred thousand pounds of wheat, and all of a sudden you have fifty thousand pounds of wheat, wheat’s more expensive."
—John Clay Wolfe [116:54]
"Operation Airdrop is basically that concept for all with general aviation aircraft delivering emergency supplies to flood victim"
—John Clay Wolfe [41:44]
"We had nearly 100 airplanes land loaded from Phoenix, Minnesota, Mexico and everywhere in between."
—John Clay Wolfe [41:44]
"Give a pilot a reason to fly, really? And then a good cause and make a feel good about all this crap he spent money on that his wife’s been busting his balls over forever?"
—JD Ryan [13:08]
"I don't want any flood cars. If I do, I'll buy them, but we're going to bid them at 25%."
—John Clay Wolfe [30:10]
**"What about a flood victim? Agreed."
—JD Ryan [45:54]
"So we've got a DC-3 leaving Fort Worth Meacham every day, loaded down. And hundreds of private pilots have all banded together to create Operation Airdrop."
—John Clay Wolfe [140:24]
"If you can get it to the Operation Airdrop members, that is going to be huge. We can fly straight into Katy now."
—Caller “Lack Daddy” [49:10]
