Episode Overview

This lively installment of the John Clay Wolfe Show, powered by GiveMeTheVin.com, blends irreverent car-deal-making, rock-and-roll homage, and wild, audience-fueled commentary. The episode opens with a heartfelt (and frequently comic) discussion of Tom Petty’s impact and passing, slides into raucous car appraisals, and explodes into a long, spirited segment on conspiracy theories surrounding the recent Las Vegas shooting. Woven throughout: sports talk, regional jabs, music history—real and, at times, outrageously fictional—plus a parade of character bits and local callers.

• Bobbo’s tongue-in-cheek ‘behind the music’ segment “Today in Rock History” with Wallace Edwards ([16:06, 84:49]):

Notable Humorous Bits and Character Segments

Closing Thoughts

Episode 117 exemplifies the show’s distinctive blend of “Texas car baron” swagger, rock trivia (both genuine and gleefully faked), fierce sports takes, and boundary-pushing humor. Whether riffing on the legacy of Tom Petty or fielding wild conspiracy calls about Las Vegas, John and company keep it brisk, brash, and weirdly good-natured—a podcast for those who want car talk with a side of smart-ass commentary, music deep-dives, and satire thicker than Texas gravy.

Podcast tip:
For full effect, queue up some Tom Petty, open a Natty Light tall boy, and enjoy the ride.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sam.

[Radio Announcer]

Broadcasting live from the Wolf Radio studios, it's time for the John Clay Wolf Show. Hit him up now. 800, 800 radio now. John Clay Wolf.

[Bobbo]

You don't come around here no more.

[J.D. Ryan]

So who's this? Some new age, cutting edge stuff.

[Bobbo]

Well, why do you play this odd music?

[J.D. Ryan]

Nobody knows, Michael.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's too deep.

[Bobbo]

Saturday, it must be the John Clay Wolf Show. J.D. ryan.

[J.D. Ryan]

Good morning, Bobbo. Good morning, Michael Turley. Morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Morning.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh man. So sad.

[John Clay Wolf]

So sud. Stop.

[Bobbo]

Not sudden enough for a lot of people, I guess. There was a lot of feedback on the early. The early transmissions of the story, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

What?

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, because he was dead.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's not dead.

[J.D. Ryan]

He's dead.

[Bobbo]

He's not dead. Jump the gun.

[John Clay Wolf]

What?

[J.D. Ryan]

A news agency incorrectly announces something, now you're just making it up.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Crazy days. These are crazy days.

[J.D. Ryan]

They want to be first. They don't really care about being right. They want to be first.

[Bobbo]

It is a great loss to American pop music for. And if people aren't aware of just the body of work that Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers put out over a course of 40 years or so, there is some amazing pop music in there. Things that no one else could have done.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like.

[Bobbo]

Well, like what? Break down all the way up to his last album, you know, it's just outstanding stuff. Wildflower Southern Accents was a favorite of mine as a kid. Damn the Torpedoes was a groundbreaking pop music album. It's awfully good stuff. I'm so fortunate I got to see him the last time he played Dallas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, and that was a great show. I've never seen such a hazy environment inside the American Airlines.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's kind of odd.

[Turley]

Why was it hazy?

[Bobbo]

It was just smoky.

[John Clay Wolf]

But why?

[Bobbo]

I mean, you could cut it with an implement.

[J.D. Ryan]

Somebody had a smoke machine. Was it Halloween?

[Bobbo]

It was foggy.

[J.D. Ryan]

Was it Halloween time?

[Bobbo]

It was a happy smiley foggy time.

[Turley]

What day was this on?

[Bobbo]

It was on April 20th.

[John Clay Wolf]

Really interesting.

[Bobbo]

I'm pretty sure that's right. I wouldn't just make that up on purpose, but I think it was. Joe Wal Walsh is an opening act.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, wow. What a show. What a show.

[Bobbo]

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. There's something, something. We're gonna miss that guy.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yep. And it was kind of sudden. He wasn't like sick or something? No, he was in a concert like a few days before and just a heart attack.

[Bobbo]

You know something funny too. Somebody posted a photo online of the Traveling Wilburys. You remember them?

[John Clay Wolf]

Uh huh.

[Bobbo]

Little super group.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

And on one side you've Got Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty. On the other side, Jeff Lynn and Bob Dylan. So we're down to like 20% on Wilburies.

[J.D. Ryan]

You're doing a Wheelbury Countdown, are you?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, well, no, I mean, we're 50 on Beatles.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[Turley]

His influence, Bobbo.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, you're.

[Turley]

You're big into music.

[Bobbo]

You can't. You can't discount his influence on modern rock and roll.

[J.D. Ryan]

Talking about Tom Petty.

[Turley]

Yeah, Tom Petty.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sorry.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, it's huge. In fact, a lot of older acts, I think. I think he more or less brought George Harrison out of retirement.

[John Clay Wolf]

Really?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, because George wasn't really doing anything musical for quite a while. He hooked up with Jeff Lynn, who had plans to work on a Tom Petty album, and he got George Harrison interested. And George called Roy Orbison, you know, Roy Orbison called Petty and Petty called Bob Dylan. So he had the Traveling Wilbur. So everything's off for like a year.

[J.D. Ryan]

Wouldn't it be weird just to be able to hear those phone calls?

[Turley]

Oh, man, no kidding.

[John Clay Wolf]

So I'm going to.

[Turley]

Hey, Bob.

[John Clay Wolf]

George Harrison. I'm going to call.

[J.D. Ryan]

I mean, really. That phone call actually occurred.

[Bobbo]

That's great stuff. And it all culminated in Tom Petty's. The only album he did without the Heartbreakers on the COVID though. He had all the side guys there with him, right? Venmont, Tinch, Mike Campbell and those guys. Howie Epstein. Full Moon Fever was the culmination of all that. And all of a sudden Jeff Lynn is producing Joe Walsh albums and George Harrison albums.

[Turley]

You know, didn't Stevie Nicks at one time say she wanted to join his band?

[Bobbo]

She certainly did.

[John Clay Wolf]

Amazing.

[Bobbo]

She was such an instrumental part of Fleetwood Mac and duet together, you know, Stop Dragging My Heart Around.

[J.D. Ryan]

Sure.

[Bobbo]

And she bugged Tom Petty for years. Come on, let me. Let me do something with a heartbreak. I'll just play tambourine. Come on.

[J.D. Ryan]

Just a tambourine. Yeah.

[Bobbo]

All that footage has been released over the course of the last five days.

[J.D. Ryan]

Rock stations have been playing all the interviews. Here's the time we talked to him.

[Bobbo]

What a great career.

[J.D. Ryan]

Amazing.

[Bobbo]

We're gonna miss that guy.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bob, did you pull your Tom Petty bits from years past so that we can mix them into the mash today?

[Turley]

Actually, if you look at the run sheet, we have one at. Coming up, the next. What, 8:30?

[John Clay Wolf]

Which one was it? I believe it's where Kyle Petty was his brother.

[Bobbo]

I was getting coffee, dog. I ain't see no run sheet. Is it ten o' clock already? I ain't seen no run Sheet.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, everyone.

[J.D. Ryan]

Good morning, John Clay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Whoop. Sorry I was a little late. The line. The food lines were a little long at Starbucks.

[J.D. Ryan]

Starbucks.

Debris.

[John Clay Wolf]

Debris. But it's like couches and, and Nintendo's. My sister, I didn't like, stop say, oh, that's a Nintendo. But I'm gonna guess if their Nintendo got wet that they put it in the pile.

[J.D. Ryan]

[Bobbo]

Well, how about you? You're very discerning listener, though, James.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you see the note his daughter wrote to the Rolling Stone for the tweet?

[Wallace Edwards]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

No. Listen, you sorry bastard. Y' all suck your paper sucks, your magazine. My dad's here dying and y' all are trying to sell papers. He's not dead yet. He's not dead yet. Drama from.

[Bobbo]

Were they one of those that jumped the gun? Yeah, a little bit.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah.

[Turley]

Everybody, they put in their magazine or online, whatever.

[Bobbo]

Rollingstone.com. yeah. As of 2:40pm they had taken him off live support. And that was the only story. That was the only confirmed complete story. But, yeah, CBS News and Rolling Stone.

[J.D. Ryan]

TMZ is raggy as it is. Was the only one that was really right.

[John Clay Wolf]

And TMZ is kind of right more than they're not.

[J.D. Ryan]

They started is when they first started. We're kind of the National Enquirer, right? Stop it. TMZ said.

[John Clay Wolf]

But now on this Vegas shooter stuff, they've got some. They've got some scoops that other. No, there we go.

[Wallace Edwards]

Anomaly in practice.

[J.D. Ryan]

What? Like what?

[John Clay Wolf]

That's what we're gonna. So the next four hours we're not gonna talk about anything except conspiracy.

[J.D. Ryan]

Conspiracy theories.

[John Clay Wolf]

I just think.

[J.D. Ryan]

I think it's hilarious.

[John Clay Wolf]

These people are.

[J.D. Ryan]

Did you know that this room card was used? First of all, you really think the cops are sitting on the sidewalk just telling you things of an ongoing investigation? No, this is this. A 20 year old sitting in somebody with a computer making stuff up.

[John Clay Wolf]

I have a theory about the security guard that got shot in the leg. Here we go.

[Bobbo]

He had his car full of gas, which is thousands of rounds of ammunition and two goldfish in a bowl he hadn't even fed yet.

[Wallace Edwards]

He's gonna try to get away. He's gonna try to get what?

[Bobbo]

Wow, far out, man. Hey, what are you talking about, man?

[J.D. Ryan]

You tried to do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hi, J.D.

[J.D. Ryan]

Let's try to play Wolf with a cool voice. We got a cool voice.

Are you sick?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, I'm.

[Bobbo]

He's not sick, man. He's cool, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

We have Wallace Edwards coming in the studio this morning to talk about Tom Petty. A little bit of history about Tom Petty.

[J.D. Ryan]

He knows the background history of almost everybody.

[John Clay Wolf]

He does.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's amazing. What he does is research. It's deep.

[John Clay Wolf]

I say we get right on into it.

[J.D. Ryan]

All right, well, I say we know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wallace is staring at me. He wants. I'm sorry. Wallace, are you there?

[Wallace Edwards]

That's fine, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you. Last week we really enjoyed your Kurt Cobain behind the Music. I mean, you're really bringing to light some facts that people have never heard before about some of these musicians and this week's Todd Petty. Do you have a. Do you have some interesting commentary on Todd, Tom?

[Wallace Edwards]

Well, John, most of the more notable names in rock music legend are inarguably extraordinary individuals gifted with a singular talent for songwriting and showmanship. And most will state that they've known they were destined to stardom at an early age. But many of rock's more fascinating stories concern absolutely common individuals who are ordinary in every way until change by extraordinary and sometimes heartbreaking life events. And that's definitely been the case with Tom Petty. He was raised by a somewhat already famous family in Gainesville, Florida, and was the nephew of NASCAR racing legend Richard Petty. As a child, Tom was a picture of absolute normalcy. Of course, he was a huge fan of stock car racing. Family records note that he spent most of his rural childhood playing cowboys and Indians and that his favorite foods were Kraft macaroni and cheese and Tang powder orange drink. And his grades in elementary school culminated to an average score of C. He was right down the line. Average in every way. That is, until the night of November 20th of 1960, when at the age of 10, Tom was involved in a high speed interstate collision while operating his father's car without permission. His older cousin Kyle had been teaching Tom to drive at the time. And while Kyle escaped the accident unharmed, the young Tom Petty wasn't as lucky. Though he survived the crash, Tom suffered irreversible head trauma and the loss of more than 18% of his prefrontal lobe and spent nearly four years in a coma. But he did bring Something back from his long dream. Because he came back singing, his first apparent sign of life was a medium pitched humming accompanied by a rhythmic side to side rocking of his head and a lackadaisical smile. When he awoke, coincidentally during the Beatles now historic performance on the Ed Sullivan show In February of 1964, Tom was figuratively an infant. He couldn't speak, walk, read or even feed himself, much less take himself to the bathroom. Even after years of rehabilitation, which was a slow, difficult process, Tom's speech would remain slurred and somewhat difficult to understand for the rest of his life. And though to this day he'll always be a virtually learning disabled survivor of severe brain injury with the intelligence of a 10 year old Southern boy. It's an extraordinarily quirky singing voice and a very lucky knack for finding the right chords on a guitar that have brought great acclaim and a career now spanning more than 30 years. To Tom Petty, who still likes Tang with Mac and cheese, loves the Beatles, and swears he'll never ride in a.

[Bobbo]

Car with Kyle Petty again.

[Wallace Edwards]

And that's this week's Today in Rock history. I'm Wallace Edwards. Now back to the Real Deal with John Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you didn't know that, did you? Only hear, folks, breaking news. Literally only here it all makes sense.

[J.D. Ryan]

And it's as accurate as any other news.

[Bobbo]

You'll catch that Kyle Petty's always been trouble though, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, you're on the air. What? You got trouble?

[Caller]

Yeah, I got 2016, dual max, one ton, dually four door, new fifth wheel on it, never been full.

[John Clay Wolf]

I've got a lot of questions about that truck. Is it leather, cloth? Is it lt ltz work truck? So is it a work truck? Is it a WT or. Okay, okay. Go to givemetheven.com I noticed that you just sent us a email in gimmetheven.com Correct. Go to give me the VIN and put the VIN number in and give us some pictures.

[Caller]

Okay, well, I'm at work right now, so.

[John Clay Wolf]

Absolutely. I just need the VIN number. I need some pictures so I can see how this thing's equipped. Is it a black front grill? Is it a chrome front grill? Does it have the chrome inserts on the wheel? Yeah, I just need to see the pictures. Do that. Go get me the vi n. Give me the vino. Give me the vin.com.

[J.D. Ryan]

Give me the vino.

[John Clay Wolf]

So I don't know why everybody goes to the website and just pushes the button and asks us questions. If they'll just give us the damn VIN in the pictures. We'll give them a bid. Actually, the computer will give them a bid right there.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah. It gives you a range.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right. Did I tell y' all that we. Charlie did that. We've got the reverse lookup software set up for the license plates.

[Turley]

Yeah, I don't think you've told anybody else about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's not. It's not live yet. Where you. If you don't have your VIN number, you can put your license plate in. Oh, and then it'll bonk. Yeah. How wild. That'll speed things up. Oh, very cool. I'll fix this.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, because it's easier for people to put in, especially drunk people, to put in six digits instead of 17.

[Bobbo]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. You're on there.

[Caller]

Hey, how y' all doing this morning?

[John Clay Wolf]

Good.

[Caller]

Hey, I've got a 2004 40th anniversary Ford Mustang. And I know it's my. My wife's baby, but we was trying to see what. I went to givemetheven.com and it sent y' all the. The pictures and the VIN number and stuff. And I was just kind of wondering what price range we could get for it because we're looking to get a.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did it not. Did it. How many miles are on it? Because over a hundred and fifteen thousand miles. I have the automation turned off. It's.

[Caller]

Right now it's 138,820.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's why. Yeah. Because if the car's under 115,000 miles, my computer will bid it automatically. What did. What did the buyer say? Give me the vin. Or did you do it overnight? And they're just getting in right now and loading them up.

[Caller]

I just did it about 20 minutes ago.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hang tight. They'll get your number on it. I don't know. It's an 04 GT with 140 on it.

[Caller]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's worth two. Two to $3,0008-0080-0723-4800, 800 radio. Is that the guy from Alabama on game day? Joe Fien or whatever. He's really getting popular. I'm sorry. I'm like a ADD dog.

You look at me and right over my shoulder is the television.

[John Clay Wolf]

So was Kyle Petty really Tom Petty's cousin?

[Bobbo]

That's what Wallace Edwards said.

[Turley]

Man, he knows everything.

[J.D. Ryan]

No, just stop.

[John Clay Wolf]

How do you know, J.D. you don't even know how to. No, you're like a monkey effing a football when it comes to anything outside. No. Anything sporting.

[J.D. Ryan]

Sporting? How is that sporting?

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, NASCAR is a sport.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's a bunch of guys driving in a circle. That's not a sport.

[John Clay Wolf]

Don't tell the NASCAR people.

[Turley]

God, sport offended about half our listeners.

[J.D. Ryan]

JD okay, day. It's a sport. Big air quotes.

[Bobbo]

We need to get you a skipper hat with sometimes.

[J.D. Ryan]

So he's driving to work.

[John Clay Wolf]

Gilligan.

[Bobbo]

Give him the Gilligan. Shut up, little buddy.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you remember when I got in trouble for talking about the five reasons that. That NASCAR is not. Doesn't have a lot of African American drivers.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, boy. Well, see, I didn't say that it was a good deal because I ain't stupid. You need to stop. Oh, well, I need you out.

[John Clay Wolf]

My.

[J.D. Ryan]

My hat. My captain hadn't hit you.

[John Clay Wolf]

800-800-72348, 800 radio.

[Bobbo]

I don't remember what the finer points of that bit was.

[Turley]

We don't need to go back into it, Bob.

[John Clay Wolf]

It had a lot to do with. With snow skiing and snowboarding. Didn't realize. Yeah. Okay.

[J.D. Ryan]

We almost got out of this car wreck.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let's.

[J.D. Ryan]

Let me grab the wheel.

[John Clay Wolf]

Snow skiing, snowboarding, NASCAR driving, drag racing. There we go. Is not predominantly black, but. Oh, good, the food's here.

[J.D. Ryan]

You know, I'm not gonna say a word here because I don't want to be called into court.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, you know, it's quiet during the 8 o' clock hour. We're just kind of getting rolling. Do you want to go ahead and get into conspiracy theory now on the Vegas shooting?

[J.D. Ryan]

Do you want to go the Dunnless Road?

[John Clay Wolf]

I want the callers, I want the listeners to call, give us their conspiracy theory. What do you think? The Vegas shooting was done by a single shooter. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, then don't bother calling. 800-800-RODE.

[J.D. Ryan]

Here's a list of the questions. How did he get that many weapons into his room without being noticed? With a luggage cart in three days? That's how he did it. How did he fire off that many rounds without training? A monkey can pull a trigger. Who says he didn't have practice?

[John Clay Wolf]

But it was three and 400 yards.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, and you guys, you've got a packed area.

[John Clay Wolf]

You.

[J.D. Ryan]

A monkey can hit people when it's packed.

[John Clay Wolf]

Agreed.

[J.D. Ryan]

How many? How was he able to kill that many people? Well, we already just discussed that. Why do you have so many weapons? First, he's a nut. Second of all, he got him over the years. How do you get his hands on a fully automatic weapon?

[John Clay Wolf]

He didn't.

[J.D. Ryan]

He had that bump fire thing which we know about now. How was he able to remove. This is my favorite. How could he remove an 800 pound hurricane glass window without training?

[John Clay Wolf]

He didn't. He broke, broken out. With a hammer.

[Turley]

Yeah, with a hammer.

[J.D. Ryan]

How did he get up 32 floors with 400 pounds of equipment, an elevator and a luggage cart. How about the sound of gunfire coming from other directions? That's called an echo. Let's see, what else? How did he, how did he come down? That doesn't matter.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you think that the Kennedy assassination was one shooter?

[J.D. Ryan]

God, yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because there is smoke off of the grassy knoll.

[Turley]

Well, I mean, you know, the government really wants to cover this up, J.D. come on.

[John Clay Wolf]

They have.

[J.D. Ryan]

Honestly, I think George Bush was probably on the floor with him and did it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, you're on the air.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[Caller]

You're talking about the conspiracy theory for the Vegas shooting?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes. When we step on him, it sounds bad. Yes.

[Caller]

Well, I'll tell you this, I don't think he got him in. I think his girlfriend helped him and I think there was a third person because not one person could get. And he had to have some kind of military or police training to be able to shoot like that and buy that many rounds.

[John Clay Wolf]

Where are you from?

[Caller]

I'm from Amarillo, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Close. I hear you, man. Well, I don't I don't know. We'll get on to more details later on in the show. So you fired the first round here. No pun intended. And I appreciate your calling. 800-807-1 of my favorite ones too. How could he.

[J.D. Ryan]

How could he videotape himself doing this? I don't know. A tripod. Yeah, no kidding, dude, Seriously? Really?

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, you're on the air. Hello, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Three, eight.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, it scared him.

[Bobbo]

Oh, they got him.

[John Clay Wolf]

I took him down before he could.

[Bobbo]

Even get on the air.

[Turley]

Government's on him.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yep. Good morning, you're on the air. Hello, you're on the air. This is John 3, everybody. They got him too. Do you know who's doing, you know, stopping this? The government stopping this. See, they're these guys. These guys calling in have the real fact but the government phone sniper is clicking them down before they get in there with dude, we need to watch it. Do you have any guns on I to don't want to get shot.

[J.D. Ryan]

I got two of them.

[John Clay Wolf]

They might snuff. Somebody might snuff us down right now.

[J.D. Ryan]

Just talking, cuz we're talking about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.

[Bobbo]

Elements of the deep state.

[John Clay Wolf]

800, 800. It's not. There's nothing funny about. I watched the show on 2020 last night. The hourong deal showed the all it was. It was interesting. It was good.

[J.D. Ryan]

We're not making fun of the shooting.

[John Clay Wolf]

Actually, I had a little more conspiracy in me last night before I watched that show. Really? Than after that show. Show. Good morning, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Hey, man, sorry, I'm. I'm driving. I got you on speaker. So I don't have my vin, but I. I got a 88 Lincoln LSD. The sport Lincoln.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ouch, I lost you. You lost me at 88 Lincoln or.

[J.D. Ryan]

Did the government.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, good morning, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Hey, we still talking about the conspiracy theory? We are, yeah. Hell no. That's one guy.

[John Clay Wolf]

Come on, one guy.

[Turley]

Hey, thank you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. On the air. Hello, hello, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Oh, hey, yeah, I was talking about that Vegas thing. Okay, so you know when somebody's there in a room and knocking out or knocking the window out with the hammer and somebody down below sees glass flying? I mean, I mean, seriously, somebody's got to see some.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, you're on the air. Good morning, you're on the air. Good morning, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Hey, man, that was definitely more than one shooter, bro. If you can find the videos before they were edited there, it shows that. It shows the 12th floor has muzzle flashes coming out of it on one of the cell phone videos.

[John Clay Wolf]

I saw that video.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's a flashing light. It's a strobe light. It's Vegas, for God's sake. It's a reflection of a strobe light.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. You're in there.

[Caller]

Hi. I was just gonna ask regarding this Vegas shooting. The shooter apparently didn't have anyone who helped him yet. It looks to me like the maid service people were helping him with the car. They're out in front of the room and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, you're on the air.

[Caller]

Yeah, I'm actually calling to make fun of all these conspiracy theorists.

[Turley]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Fun made bout. Good morning, you're on the air. Good morning. You're on there. Good morning, you're on the air. Good.

[Caller]

Hey, I just wanted to say I like you guys show and I do think it was more than. More than a shooter. It had to be. I mean they had that flashes coming off the third floor and.

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you think? What do you think that. What do you think? What do you think the reason was? What was the motive?

[Caller]

I think the motive was just. He must have been stressed out, man, because looking at his family, they said they didn't expect a damn thing from him.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you don't know? You don't. The answer is you don't know either. What city in.

[Caller]

I'm in Houston.

[John Clay Wolf]

Houston. Good morning. Good morning. What city you in, sir? You're on the air, man.

[Caller]

What's up, man?

[John Clay Wolf]

What city?

[Caller]

I'm in Dallas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Dallas. What's the motive? Yes, sir.

[Caller]

And that was a conspiracy by Hillary Clinton.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. What city are you in?

[Caller]

US what, what, what?

[John Clay Wolf]

What's the motive? Gun control. Good morning. What city are you in? Hi, you're on.

[Caller]

Hello?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. What city are you in?

[Caller]

Fort Worth, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's the motive?

[Caller]

They don't have a motive yet.

[John Clay Wolf]

I know they don't, but what do you think? I don't. I don't know why he did it.

[Caller]

I think he was just crazy. But I don't think there was more than one.

[Bobbo]

I think.

[Caller]

I think there was three of them.

[John Clay Wolf]

If you read the newspaper report, there was 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Good morning, you there? What city? It's you.

[Caller]

Hello, I'm here.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hi. What city are you in and what. What was the motive?

[Caller]

I'm in Ben Wheeler, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller]

I just wanted to tell you that we don't know a motive and it's probably just pure evil. And I just wanted to say I don't listen to y' all show, but I have called it up. Listening this morning, I'm appalled that y' all are laughing when somebody calls in and they get hung up, they get cut off. Y' all are laughing at this.

[John Clay Wolf]

What are you talking about, man? When they get. When they get called.

[Caller]

I just turned on the show, okay? And somebody calls in twice and they get cut off and y' all start laughing.

Oh, it's not. Forgot him.

They got him.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, country mama. Listen, Ben Wheeler. No, you listen. You listen. What we said was the government turned them off because they were going to tell us something important. I didn't say say the sniper got him. My God. People don't wake up now. I'm laughing at you. Good morning. You're on the air.

[Caller]

Hey, good morning. I'm calling from Keller.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey.

[Caller]

The guy was a lone wolf and.

He'S just sick of the Democrat.

[Turley]

Out of country.

[John Clay Wolf]

800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. Okay. That was quite a dose of the public intake. And then we got angry Mabel from Ben Wheeler, Texas, that needs to clean the earwax out of her ears. Let's send her a big box of Q tips, you know, what goes on, so she can dissect what we're actually saying correctly.

[Bobbo]

When you allow the possibility that somebody else was in on this, you then have a true idea of conspiracy. Right? Right. That means the newspapers are lying and that, you know, it just escalates into craziness. Pure craziness.

[John Clay Wolf]

This.

[Bobbo]

For once in my life, JD Is absolutely right about this.

[John Clay Wolf]

For once in my life, JD Is right.

[J.D. Ryan]

Perfect. I love that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

For once in my life.

[Bobbo]

Because, I mean, when you can't trust recognizable news sources, when you. When you look for motives and operators that are not there, that's crazy, right?

[J.D. Ryan]

People like to think they're smarter than everybody.

[John Clay Wolf]

I do want to know what made the guy do it, because he did. He did think a lot about this psychopath.

[J.D. Ryan]

He's a psychopath. He's crazy. What you're trying to do is apply logic to a crazy person, and it doesn't work. Well, that doesn't make any sense. You're right.

[John Clay Wolf]

He.

[J.D. Ryan]

It does not make any sense. He's crazy there. You can't apply logic to it, period.

[Bobbo]

You guys remember Charles Whitman, the guy that shot all those people from. Yes, from the tower at University of Texas. They autopsy later found that he had a developing tumor for a long time before he did that. I think this Guy had some middle incapacity that just snapped on him. And for the last eight to 12 weeks, he's been planning this crazy deal.

[John Clay Wolf]

What city are you in? Good morning. Line two.

[Caller]

Oklahoma City.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oklahoma City. Say something smart. Make everybody around you proud.

[Caller]

Well, I mean, I saw a video last night. I don't know what to think of this dude, but. But there was a video circulating last night I found pretty interesting. They're saying that the dude was like some kind of undercover FBI and it was a bot weapons deal with ISIS and blah, blah, blah. I just don't know what to think. I know it was a terrible tragedy and, you know, just what can you do? What can you say?

[John Clay Wolf]

Who's OU playing today?

[Caller]

It goes out to the victims and the families. And that's all I got to say about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, I hear you, man. It's wild. It's. It's. It's. It's something. It's just now hitting me that this even happened. My name is John Clay Wolf. We'll be back. Uno momento. Porph favor. Good morning, everybody. We're Gonna add about 10 more stations here. On the next segment, 800, 800 radio.

His wife says their sex life is abnormal. He told her that normal guys don't hunt a Sasquatch more than twice a year. He is the world's biggest son of a.

Is. Does 6,000. Buy it? Does $6,000 buy it? Yeah, it needs to be nice. Then it's a 04, 150,000 mile flood free crew cab, leather, four wheel drive Chevy truck, right?

[Caller]

Oh, no, no, it's not an 04. It's a 2000.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, okay. I gotta back it up a little bit then. Probably 4,500. Four grand.

[Caller]

Yeah, I would do 4,500.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, go to get. Give me the vi n. Givemetheven.com Givemetheven.com Load it up in the website, send a picture. We'll get it bought, get it picked up. Don't believe me? Read our reviews. They're all over the web. Better business bureau, Facebook reviews, Google reviews. I don't have to pitch my wares anymore. All of our customers do it for us, you know.

[Bobbo]

John Ben Wheeler, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why are we. Okay, so we had a lady call in a minute ago. What was it, 10 minutes ago or 15? Yelling at us about she heard something incorrect. When. Right. And this is so typical. Baba wearing his sleeve on his. His heart on his sleeve. Okay, lady calls him. Go ahead. Bob Ben Wheeler, Texas. What? What's on your mind?

[Bobbo]

What do you think I'm gonna say?

[John Clay Wolf]

You. You can't stop thinking about this lady that got mad and criticized you. She criticized you. If Bobbo gets criticized, he'll wear it for three weeks.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

What a hurt. Bob O's feelings. Just call in and yell at him because you'll get right to him.

[Bobbo]

Okay, you want to go there?

[John Clay Wolf]

I'll go there.

[Bobbo]

Okay. First thing. First thing we're talking, we're taking calls about what? You know, what's your idea, what are you thinking? And a couple of calls about the biggest shooting they dropped, you know, and what you hear is the operator saying, three, two, you know, and so I made a funny quip. Oh, the government got it. Or I just said, oh, they got it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like they censored the caller. They didn't. Just like they're deleting the YouTube and the Facebook videos, which are happening. Sure, it's happening.

[Bobbo]

Lady calls us up and says, I can't believe y' all are saying every.

[Wallace Edwards]

Time a call drops, the shooter got him.

[Bobbo]

The shooter got. Well, we didn't say that, ma'.

[John Clay Wolf]

Am.

[Bobbo]

First, second, during the break, we were all discussing Ben Wheeler. Where is that? We thought maybe Houston area, but it's not. And here's my conspiracy theory. Ben Wheeler lies 12 miles east, southeast of Canton, Texas, which is a lot closer to where we are. I think she's a false flag. I think. I think we here in this room had better brace ourselves for some sort of a mess with.

[John Clay Wolf]

From the west, because she's east of us, so are we supposed to be looking that way? And then her co conspirator is going to come from the other side from Weatherford?

[Bobbo]

She is the book suppository.

[J.D. Ryan]

Suppositor.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right.

[J.D. Ryan]

Don't just let it go.

[John Clay Wolf]

I've never shoved a book up my body.

[Bobbo]

That would make weather for the grassy knoll.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. The book.

[Bobbo]

Turkey shoot.

[Wallace Edwards]

Man, we better watch all things.

[Bobbo]

We better watch out. And thanks for showing your cards, lady. Now we know what's going on.

[John Clay Wolf]

Kevin in Fort Worth. Good morning. What? What do you think?

[Caller]

Good morning. Well, I agree with what y' all were saying that, you know, this guy is psychopathic, psychological. You know, he's probably got some sort of mental health.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tim and Chalk talk. What did you think?

[Caller]

Hey, I think the guy was sane as could be. He planned this thing out, and his motive was to be the number one guy on the mass murderer list and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Just make the news. Well, he's not saying he's crazy, but he did it.

[Caller]

He had a fantasy about doing this, and he lived out his fantasy. That's.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's it.

[Caller]

I worked in jails and prisons for a long time, and the thing these guys want to do, he lived out his. His fantasy. That's it. I mean, nothing more simple than that. And it's easy to carry all those guns up to your room. Nobody inspects your bags at a hotel. There's no metal detectors.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right. I agree with you. So what prison did you work in? Or jail?

[Caller]

I worked at Joe Harp in Oklahoma, and I worked at Maple Bassett, and I worked at the Oklahoma County Sheriff's Department in the detention center for about six years. So he's not crazy. He calculated this out, and he figured out how to do it, and he did it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you. 800. 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.

[J.D. Ryan]

By definition, if you murder a bunch of people, you are Crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

So that's like, Austin, what's your story?

[Caller]

Yeah, I think it definitely. It may have been more than one shooter. I mean, I keep an open mind. I don't think they're fully edited, but they could be. There's showing a guy wearing a bright yellow security vest, and he had like a mini Uzi and he was shooting into the crowd shortly after the first shot.

[John Clay Wolf]

Turley, Actually, I saw the video he's talking about, and it really. If you slow it down, frame of frame, it really does look just like that. And you can see the fire coming out of the end of it. So, Austin, did you see that? Did you.

[Bobbo]

Are you.

[John Clay Wolf]

I know exactly what you're talking about. It, I mean. Yeah, it looks like a guy that's trying to help the crowd and then he whips out this gun and starts shooting people.

[Bobbo]

So he's saying Walter White did it.

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't know, man. I don't know. It's weird. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I'm sad. It's just sad.

[J.D. Ryan]

The whole thing is sad.

[John Clay Wolf]

It is Sad. You know, 1990 and four, I'm gonna guess is when the Timothy McVeigh Oklahoma City bombing was. Okay, I'm just pulling that. I'm pulling that out of my butt. But I remember where I was when it happened and watch it on tv. I have a friend whose father went down in an airplane and he was putting together. He was working for the government, okay. On the Timothy McVeigh deal, and he suddenly died. And there's theory that he was killed. Who knows? I don't know, man. I don't know. 800, 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800.

[J.D. Ryan]

Just the funniest part is people just love to be the smartest guy in the room. That's what conspiracy theories are. I want to be smarter than everybody else. You are stupid. You don't see the big picture like I do.

[John Clay Wolf]

But I didn't know that Tom Petty was Kyle Petty's.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Step bro. Is it stepbrother or cousin?

[Bobbo]

I think I'm just surprised.

[John Clay Wolf]

He was in a bad wreck in the 60s and hurt his head and then he woke up after a coma. Right. He couldn't talk. Right.

[Bobbo]

You never hear about, you know.

[J.D. Ryan]

No, you don't these days.

[Bobbo]

Unless somebody like Wallace Edwards, you know, goes and researches and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Turley]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

You know, there's a reason you don't hear about it. I'm surprised nobody's come up with the Tom Petty was murdered thing yet because that's, you know, he was healthy the week before.

[Bobbo]

Why?

[J.D. Ryan]

When he just suddenly dies? Cause a heart attack?

[Turley]

Well, the government murdered him to distract everybody from the story. Jd, Come on.

[Radio Announcer]

Come on, jd.

[J.D. Ryan]

Stupid. I'm just stupid.

[John Clay Wolf]

What about oj?

[Bobbo]

And they're gonna.

[John Clay Wolf]

OJ lost all the fun this week.

[J.D. Ryan]

Same week OJ got out.

[Turley]

Yeah. Maybe OJ did it.

[Bobbo]

Right. They sent him so that they could insert Sammy Hagar as the new lead singer for the Heartbreakers. Because Tom Petty wouldn't play ball.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, that's it.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

The record label.

[Bobbo]

Yeah. Because Tom petty would drop drive 55. We can't have that.

[John Clay Wolf]

So I, I, I made my loop this week, buying a bunch of cars all through Louisiana and Houston. About 800 miles. I almost get home. Okay, Thursday night. No, Friday.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thursday night. Yeah. One in the morning, driving up from Houston. You know when you have to open your window?

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Turn on the air conditioner. Keep.

[J.D. Ryan]

Slap yourself. Keep.

[John Clay Wolf]

Turn the radio up too loud. You're like, okay. I was, I was only 40 minutes from the house after all that driving. I just couldn't make it. So I pull over, I was gonna take an hour nap, and I pulled over in a hotel parking lot, like, leaving my seat back. Boom, I was out. But I had Chris Rock playing on. I was on this road trip. I was like, who is the best comedian of all time? Yeah. Because I keep hearing, is it Richard Pryor? Is it George Carlin? Is it Robin Williams? And I. And I have apple music. And you have everything right there. All these old albums, Cheech and Chong. And I'm playing bits of these comedic albums, big bamboo classics. The Robin Williams one, I forgot. Whatever. Richard Pryor, that guy's crazy. And all the rest of them live on Sunshine. Eddie Murphy, I'm going through him and Chris Rock. Cheese and Crackers is the best. It's the best. It's the best. And I fell asleep with that on. And I've slept all night. But it, I kept waking up for just a minute. I'd, like, catch myself laughing. So I really got a big dose of it. But, but the oj, there's a piece in Chris Rock's Cheese and crackers from 1993, I think. Okay, that's talking about OJ. And it's just funny hearing it then. And today. Here's a little sample.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, you have it.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you gotta think about OJ's situation. 25,000amonth. Another man driving around his car, his wife. Wife, and a house he's still paying a mortgage on. And I'm not saying he should have killed her, but I understand.

[J.D. Ryan]

You don't do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

But I understand that's a conspiracy from Chris Rock.

[Bobbo]

That's cuz Chris Rock tells the truth.

[John Clay Wolf]

One more time on that, I want to hear it. He talks so fast. So you got to think about OJ's situation. 25,000amonth. Another man driving around his car, his wife and a house he's still paying a mortgage on. Now I'm not saying he should have killed, but I understand paying 25, 000amonth. So is OJ out?

[J.D. Ryan]

He is out. Yeah, he's out. And I believe. I believe he's living in a house near Vegas.

[Turley]

I don't know, but they TMZ went to talk to him. He wouldn't have anything to do with it.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah. Really?

[Caller]

Y' all stalking me?

[John Clay Wolf]

Jesus, man.

[Bobbo]

No, none of your business.

[John Clay Wolf]

This two.

[Bobbo]

I'm in the car for the last five hours, so how do I know how it feels to be out?

[Turley]

So you don't want to talk?

[John Clay Wolf]

Leave me alone. Robert and Flower Mound 05F150 113000 mile leather crew cab, two wheel drive, right?

[Caller]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Average rough or clean condition.

[Caller]

Russ Martin, J.D. ryan to the end, baby.

[John Clay Wolf]

What?

[Caller]

Three.

[Bobbo]

All right.

[J.D. Ryan]

More conspiracies.

[John Clay Wolf]

More conspiracies.

[Turley]

Are they getting back?

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm straight though.

[J.D. Ryan]

We're getting back together.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm straight. I'm straight.

[J.D. Ryan]

We're bringing George Harrison with us.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's funny. So for those of y' all in other cities, JD was a co host, lead co host, guy co founder. Really is of a. Of a show in Dallas Fort Worth for years and they broke up. They had a bad breakup. If you want to react, read about it, you can search J.D. ryan. Russ Martin, Dallas Observer. It really gets into some gory details. It shows the diagram of the grassy knoll and the book suppository building 10 years.

[Bobbo]

Little Richie really researched his subject.

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, let it go.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh my God. 98 vet with 42,000 miles. Frank, if it's nice, I'm just. 10,000 work.

[Bobbo]

I don't know.

[Caller]

I haven't even gotten out there to.

See what it would do.

[John Clay Wolf]

I see. I don't even know if you're telling me the truth. I wonder if you're just. Honestly, if you're just trying to get my attention over here.

[Caller]

Oh, I got you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it conspiracy?

[Caller]

No, it isn't.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, you know, it's a 50 year old vet. Maybe not 50, but my math's not so good. This morning and I don't feel like figuring out. Figuring it out. 20 year old vet and it's got 40 on it. $10,000.

[Caller]

Hardly drive it.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, if I gave you. If I gave you a check for $10,000 for it, wouldn't you say? Thanks.

I've got 60 seconds, so I have to go fast. David, good morning. What's your theory?

[Caller]

Yeah, I think the guy just didn't like country music.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bridget, Oklahoma City, what's your theory? Hello, Bridget, Oklahoma City. What's your theory? Oh, hi. Hi.

[Caller]

I watched a video that this morning posted by Anonymous and they were saying that it wasn't necessarily like the shooter that was behind it all. It was the people that do the surveillance cameras that they want to control and make sure that we're under surveillance 24 7.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, makes sense. Jerry, Fort Worth, what's your theory?

[Turley]

Makes sense.

[Caller]

John, I think that it's just a guess. It's not really probably a theory. I think it's probably a left wing nut shot into a country western concert. And, and I disagree with the guy in Choctaw that worked in prison that said that he Wasn't crazy because he calculated this. Most of the crazy, mostly mass murders. And of our.

[John Clay Wolf]

Joseph. Good morning. A 2000 Silverado with 300,000 miles. I think we should fill it full of tannerite and blow it up. It ain't worth nothing either.

[John Clay Wolf]

We've got the three R's coming up. Promo's father, Randy the chipmunk. What was the other? Rush. Rush Limbo. Rush Limbo is actually coming up in just a minute. I need to take another conspiracy theorist because I want to hear Russia's take on it. And Brad, a 2012 Mustang California Special with 52. Is it. What color is it?

[Caller]

It's dark blue.

[John Clay Wolf]

Automatic, Leather. Automatic or stick?

[Caller]

Automatic.

[John Clay Wolf]

Just. Let's just off the top. Do you already have numbers? Have you already been working on it?

[Caller]

No. Have no clue.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, hang on. It's a 12. So it's a GT with a Cali special. Does it have a clean carfax?

[Caller]

I'm sorry, what?

[John Clay Wolf]

Clean carfax. Yeah, no wrecks. Does it need tires?

[Caller]

No, no.

[John Clay Wolf]

What city?

[Caller]

It's in Hazlet.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, that's nearby, so we can pick it up immediately. Do you have a title?

[Caller]

Yeah, no, about 2,000 on. But I'll pay it off next week.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can make the payoff. Unless. Is it at a local bank or one of those finance companies?

[Caller]

No, it's a credit union out of Iowa.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, we can handle it. We. We make the payoffs for the people all the time, free of charge. You know, a 12 GT Cali special with 52. I think it's 16, 17 grand.

[Caller]

Okay, thanks, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Brandon Houston, what's your theory?

[Caller]

Hey, man, love the show.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks.

[Caller]

I don't know if anyone brought this up because I missed the show for about five minutes Sense, but I think that he was trying to one up his dad who was a notorious bank robber who made FBI's top 10 most wanted. And he was secretly proud of that and he wanted to not go out on nobody.

[John Clay Wolf]

So he wants David Wichita Falls. What's your theory?

[Caller]

I think he's butthurt.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let's ask Rush Limbaugh. Oh, no.

[Turley]

Pull him up the in the ISDN real quick.

[John Clay Wolf]

Rush, rush, rush, rush from Florida. You back in Florida after the wind got to blowing down there.

[Bobbo]

Finally. I finally got home. I was sure happy to have a five guys burger when I got it back. I understand they had those all over, but out here they're really different. You might get a little gator sometimes.

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, no you don't.

[Bobbo]

I swear I saw something just the other day.

[J.D. Ryan]

I don't think so.

[Bobbo]

No, I had a. Actually in my travel bag in my shape craving kit, right, I found an actual real life Quaalude.

[J.D. Ryan]

Why is that surprising?

[John Clay Wolf]

From.

[Bobbo]

From somewhere back in like 1987. And those were the days, I'll tell you.

[J.D. Ryan]

So I.

[Bobbo]

Maybe I imagined the gator, but I still got a bit of that Everglades taste.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

Right in the back of my mouth.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

Like. Like ketchup and mustard and gator Delicious.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you have a conspiracy theory that the burger joint is poor putting ground gator into their meat patties?

[Bobbo]

No, no, I appreciate them doing it. I don't think it's a conspiracy at all. I think it's like a plus, you know, like you go to Sonic for the free peppermints. That's a nice gesture. No, I appreciate that very much. Thank goodness in Puerto Rico. And you won't hear a lot of broadcasters putting a positive spin on the devastation there. But one thing they still have a lot of in Puerto Rico is rumored. There's a lot of rum in Puerto Rico.

[J.D. Ryan]

You make it there.

[Bobbo]

I actually spoke to our fearless leader, Donald J. Trump. I gotcha early on Wednesday, and he was obviously stoned to the bejesus belt on Puerto Rican rum.

[J.D. Ryan]

He doesn't drink.

[Bobbo]

Did you see him throwing paper towels for the crowd?

[J.D. Ryan]

That was a PR stunt.

[Bobbo]

What a beautiful gesture. All he's lacking is that T shirt cannon that they carry for college games. College. College game day. Here's a horn frog shirt or your tcu. Go, Horn Frogs. And some cheerleaders, preferably Puerto Rican cheerleaders. Because nothing says love like a free T shirt and a bunch of Puerto Rican cheerleaders.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you, Rush. Limbo rum for everyone. Hey, will you come back later?

[Bobbo]

Absolutely. I've got nothing going on a Saturday. Maybe a couple of Percocets down by then, but I understand a lot of your audiences gets that better than mine. You heard it here first, folks. At the Excellence in Broadcasting Network. El Rushbow talent on loan from God.

[John Clay Wolf]

Calvin Azel. What's your deal?

[Caller]

Hey, man, I got. I got a good conspiracy theory here, man. I've been up for a little bit thinking about this and up for a little bit. They're trying to control them. Part of it is gun control. And they're trying to make the laws restricted on that. You know what I mean?

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, ael, I have a conspiracy theory. AEL is like the meth lab of North Texas. And you saying that you've been up for a little bit makes me think that you really mean it when you say you've been up for a little bit. Have you been up for two, three, four days?

[Caller]

I mean it like.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, I do too. 800-800-723-4. 800 radio. Darren, good morning. You're on the air.

[Caller]

Yeah, I was wondering. I'm a conspiracy theory.

[John Clay Wolf]

I think.

[Caller]

John, are you. Are you married?

[John Clay Wolf]

I am married.

[Caller]

They said this was. They said this was a lone wolf that did this.

[John Clay Wolf]

Lone wolf. I am the shooter. I am the shooter. Dexter has a question about electric cars. And guess what city Dexter resides in. Wait, can I guess?

[Turley]

Can I guess?

[John Clay Wolf]

Turley, Austin. Dexter, where do you live?

[Caller]

Hey, in my defense, I moved here from Houston.

[J.D. Ryan]

Recently.

[Caller]

Don't pin that on me.

[John Clay Wolf]

What you got, Dex?

[Caller]

So I know you've got your list of sort of this list going. Don't buy a new Range Rover, right? Don't buy a. Lease it or don't try to sell a Tesla. I'm looking at. I've got a lease car right now. And so I'm thinking about maybe next spring getting the little i3 for a city car. Because that car was no good in Houston. Right here you could use it.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you won't. And you won't get laughed at.

[Caller]

What's the deal? What's that?

[John Clay Wolf]

And you won't get laughed at.

[Caller]

Oh, come on now.

[John Clay Wolf]

In Austin.

[Caller]

Yeah, that's true, that's true. We'll. We'll fit in. We'll, I don't know, do something to fit in. Some tattoos, maybe one of those fake sleeves.

[John Clay Wolf]

Keep it rolling. What you got?

[Caller]

Yeah. So what's the deal on those? On buying those? If I want to buy one of those used, I see them, they're like 15k right now. And they're all low mileage, understandably because they don't have any range, but.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are you talking about a Nissan Leaf? Now?

[Turley]

The BMW.

[Caller]

The BMW, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, here's my theory, Dex. So do you think German cars are more expensive to maintain than American cars? Yes. The answer is yes. Imagine an electric version of that Hitler with nuclear physics and electricity. I don't know, Germany. Bad joke. Okay, 800. 800. Seven, two, three, four. Put him on hold. God bless America. Hurry up, Austin. I want this Viper good. 06 Dodge Viper, 16,000 miles. I don't know what it's worth. I just wanted to talk to you before we went to break. Where you calling from?

[Caller]

Beaumont.

[John Clay Wolf]

Beaumont? Did it get flooded? Are you the same one I bit a year ago? You are, aren't you? You.

[Caller]

No, I've never called again.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, cuz there was a guy in Beaumont that. He's a. He's a nice fella. We were like $500 apart on this Viper and he'd come back like every 90 days and. And we'd still be $500 apart. How many Vipers are in Beaumont?

[Caller]

What's that?

[John Clay Wolf]

Is there a. Is there a Beaumont Viper club?

[Caller]

[John Clay Wolf]

Rest in peace, brother. Tom Petty. I really wish I would have taken Bobbo up on the opportunity that he invited me to go see him last April. I shouldn't have skipped that 1-800-800-7234 is the phone number. We're gonna be here till noon on many stations, till 11 on others. Oh, God. We've had a lot of conspiracy theories this morning. This just in the score bit. Baylor's season record right now. Baylor 0, Karma 5, Joey Maguire. Sorry. You. You probably wish you were back at Cedar Hill right about now. Lord, Lord, my buddy. That one of those state championships I played high school football with. He was on our team. Joey McGuire. Yeah. Went to Cedar Hill. I think he won it three times and went to the playoffs. A legendary Texas high school football record. And he left there to go to Baylor as a assistant assistant this year.

[Turley]

Get a year under his belt and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Go somewhere else, you know, and got.

[Turley]

To start somewhere, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, maybe. Let's try him at the head coach for the second half of that. Mean, it's like if you're not winning, swap out something. Put him in. Put him in. He did it in Cedar Hill.

[J.D. Ryan]

Let's put this Dak fella in, see how he does.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, Art. Good morning. You're on the air. Go Astros. 14 maximum with 20,000 miles. Is it a S? Is it a. Which one is it? Which version? Svs.

[Caller]

Well, I don't. I don't see any of that on it. I don't know if it's lost the letters or what, but it's double sunroof. Really nice. Or the pearl white. All the good stuff.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's got. What. What city are you in? Garage cap, what city are you in?

[Caller]

Witch Falls.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, right off the. Just. I'm thinking 18 grand. What's your payoff?

[Caller]

I need 20 on it at the lowest. At the Most, it's a $22,000 car.

[John Clay Wolf]

Here's what I need. I need to see in Nissan's. The VIN decoders do not work very well, so I need a picture of it in a. The vin, and then I'm gonna have to do, like a harder research, look up on the VIN and figure out what it is. Okay.

[Caller]

I sent all that in last night. Y' all should have it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Guys are slammed this morning. They get here, and we won't catch up to it till this afternoon, but they'll. Your buyer will be emailing you here probably any minute, actually, because it's. It. They've been here for two hours now. They're getting caught up. We've got. We've got 15 buyers sitting in a room doing nothing but bidding cars online. Forgive me. The VIN customers.

[Turley]

Is this a J Juke you talking about?

[John Clay Wolf]

He said a maximum. Okay, Sorry. If it's a juke and it's 20, 000, I should have hung up on him already.

[Turley]

I just heard Nissan, and I saw juke on the board that we already bought.

[John Clay Wolf]

Patrick, what city are you in?

[Caller]

Yeah, I'm in Kaufman.

[John Clay Wolf]

Kaufman. 05 Accord with 41 leather roof. Nav, is it a six cylinder or a four cylinder?

[Caller]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why are the miles solo? I'm not complaining. I like it, man.

[Caller]

I brought. I bought it with 31, 000 miles, and I just happened to get a good deal on it in the urban Irving.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's not any good deals in Irving, man.

[Caller]

Oh, great deals, man. Great deal.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, there's like, cut miles and flood titles and. And stuff like that. Irving.

[Caller]

Clean title, man, everything.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, you talk pretty fast. You're talking faster than me. And I'm the used car. And I'm the used car dealer.

[Caller]

Yeah. Yes, sir.

[J.D. Ryan]

You made your.

[Caller]

And you're famous, man. I'm on the radio now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Famous. Famous. I'm a. You know, I'm a six grand buyer if it's all that, so go to give me grand. Six grand if it's a 41, 000 mile 05.

[Caller]

Okay. I appreciate John.

[John Clay Wolf]

He talked very, very, very fast. Irving. You can't get any straight cars in Irving. That's like buying cars in Grand Prairie is not the place to be buying. Anyway. If you got it registered in Irving, probably ought to send it to your friend in McKen to sell it.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

800. 800-72-3,4. I like buying cards at a. At a. I like buying cars out of good zip codes. I like buying cars where people wear clean tennis shoes. If you're fishing in the. In a cesspool. Yeah. What kind of. If you're fishing in the pond, in the ghetto. Yeah. You think you're going to pull big, pretty speckled trout out of it, Stinky fish?

[Bobbo]

Depend on how hungry a brother might be.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's true. And there is an ass for every seat. And everything is worth something. Not knocking it, but the Irving thing threw a hell of a flag up. That's 21 years experience.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's next? Cam Newton? He's bitching, he's causing problems. He's being a racist against women. And he's black.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, yes, he is.

[Turley]

I don't know if they call that racist, but sexist. Yeah, you be the judge here.

[John Clay Wolf]

I know you take a lot of.

[Caller]

Pride in seeing your receivers play. Well, Devin Funches just seemed to really.

[John Clay Wolf]

Embrace the physicality of his routes and getting those extra yards. Does that give you a little bit of an enjoyment to see him kind.

[Caller]

Of trustee people out there?

[John Clay Wolf]

It's funny to hear a female talk about routes like he's liking her. It's funny. He's flirting is what he's doing.

[Turley]

That's kind of what I was thinking too.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's what it sounds like to me. Because she kind of has a cute delivery.

[Turley]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

When he was, like, giving her the eyes. Like, we're gonna talk routes, baby.

[Turley]

Talking about physicality.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, when we're out of here, let's go talk about some more routes. I'll show you a route.

[J.D. Ryan]

Let's hike a little ball.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'll show you a route. It's called the four point stance.

[Bobbo]

Let's go work on your total yardage.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's called the out and in. You turn out and I go in.

[Turley]

Yeah, that's. I didn't get the. Everybody's saying. Well, I know he's saying that she's just. She's a female and she doesn't know anything.

[John Clay Wolf]

I think it's definitely sexist. I think Sex is on his mind. Yes, exactly. We've solved this problem. What's the next problem you got? That's.

[Turley]

That's the only problem for the day. Congratulations. That was quick, man. You hit that. Hit that one real quick.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks.

[Bobbo]

But did you see on Thursday Night Football, who's the former coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers?

[Turley]

Bill Cow?

[John Clay Wolf]

Dan Marino.

[Bobbo]

Did you see Coward go off on Cam Newton in the halftime interview?

[Turley]

These players and the coaches, they don't. They don't like talking to the media. They hate it because they. And this is across the board. They feel, well, I've played the sport. I'm playing the sport right now. What do you have the right to say, critique me on something. You haven't played the sport. I mean, that's across the board. They think this, but they have to answer these questions.

[Bobbo]

Sure, but Bill Cower was just incensed. He was highly, highly offended by Cam Newton. Or was he just saying that?

[John Clay Wolf]

He's just trying to get pressed. It's. The answer to the question is just stupid. It's all reaction. What they're doing in that moment. Not that I was any good. I played up through D1 ball, but I was a backup. So I'm not bragging, but I mean, what's going on in that moment and the reflection of that moment that quickly after the game, without watching film, and they don't know. Let me tell you this, J.D.

[Bobbo]

You'Re.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're a. You're a metrosexual. You don't know anything about sports.

[J.D. Ryan]

I don't know about sports. I don't care.

[John Clay Wolf]

Guess what? Every single football play, you know, X's and then the O's.

[J.D. Ryan]

I've seen that. I played football.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Okay. Really?

[J.D. Ryan]

Ymca.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Okay. So I made a tackle. Even the most complex plays. Yeah. If everybody hits their assignment properly. Okay, what is every single play designed to do?

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, score. I guess.

[John Clay Wolf]

You went in pretty. Pretty. Yes.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yes. Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Every single football play, if everyone executes their assignment properly, is a touchdown.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why didn't every play make a touchdown? Because S. Happens.

[J.D. Ryan]

Stuff happens, man. Because the other team did it better, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Defense, One little deal. I mean, they did their exes, but the interviews after games, they're boring. What were you thinking when that guy was sacking your ass? Well, I saw him coming out of my left eye, and I was trying to get away from it.

[J.D. Ryan]

The dumbest thing, after, after.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I threw the ball to homeboy down there that was running that route.

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, if we can just execute and throw the ball and.

[John Clay Wolf]

But the other Guy I didn't see and he stepped up and intercepted it.

[J.D. Ryan]

We would win.

[John Clay Wolf]

We would have won.

[Turley]

They're hoping, the media is hoping for some type of insight sound bite, something they can use. And if you're smart, like, like for instance, Jason Whitten, he toes the company line every time. You don't get anything from him. But there's certain players like Cam Newton.

[J.D. Ryan]

He can feed a little something to it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Turley]

And you, that's what you're waiting for in the media. You're just waiting for somebody to slip.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's it. I bet they have classes on coaching these guys. Oh, they do. Seriously.

[Turley]

They actually do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. It's like me talking to the program directors. Exactly. They've been doing that for 11 years now.

[J.D. Ryan]

We're good. We're good.

[John Clay Wolf]

If I did this show the way the program directors wanted me to do this show, we would have no listeners. We would have zero hater. He's a Texan. He's the accidental racist. If I was as vanilla, smooth and just zero, no controversy, anything. Nobody listened to this crap.

[J.D. Ryan]

Program directors wouldn't even listen.

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, they'd be like, ah, that's boring. Let's listen to something else.

[John Clay Wolf]

This show sucks. Just like we told told y' all it would. They don't want it to be good. They don't want listeners. They don't want that. We're. I feel you. I'm a minority in the, in the radio world. And. And it's. It's been an interesting journey to say the least.06F350. King Ranch with a hundred thousand miles on it. Dually long bed, leather. Is it a lariat, John?

[Caller]

Just King Ranch.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, I'm. Duh. I'm an idiot. It said King Ranch in big letters. Is it leather? Am I in my downsy. I said it. No. I'm being barely hear you. He just dumped me. See, I did it again. Okay, sorry, what did you say? I said something stupid and my producer had to dump me because he didn't want me to get in trouble with the program directors. And I've instructed him, when I say something that is questionable, please dump it so that I don't have to hear about it Monday morning from the corporate program directors. So thank you, Turley. I wasn't. I was. I was making a reference to people that have ailments and it wasn't good. Okay. 06. I have an ailment anyway. Is it a four wheel drive or two?

Okay.

You've got a way of just cutting through the BS and you're just a great guy, dude.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I appreciate.

[Caller]

Keep up the good work and God bless you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you. Martin in Gainesville, Texas. Yeah, we have a listener. We lose a lot of them, but we go. But we got one. We kept one. I thought he was going to start.

[Bobbo]

Classy guy.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, it's Satan. Good morning, Satan.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, I like him a lot. I've got my eye on you, Martin.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, Martin.

[John Clay Wolf]

You like Martin?

[J.D. Ryan]

That's kind of dumb. Thanks for calling.

[John Clay Wolf]

In Forbes magazine. Yeah. Out with his annual list of radio's highest paid personalities. Saw that. No surprise. Howard Stern. What? Who's been kicked off of traditional radio. He's on. He's hidden on Sirius. XM tops the list once again with only $90 million a year in annual salary. Wait. Rush Limbaugh is sitting here screaming at us, wanting to talk to us real quick. Oh, he makes a lot, too. Rush, it says. Says here. Good morning, Rush.

[Bobbo]

Well, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

You're back again.

[John Clay Wolf]

I am Rush. It says, Howard Stern makes 90 million a year. Stern, who is one of America's wealthiest celebrities with a net worth of 500 million, renegotiated his contract. The deal includes, blah, blah, blah, blah. Rush Limbaugh was number two. Number two at 84 million a year. But, Rush, I have a question.

[J.D. Ryan]

How much money?

[John Clay Wolf]

So Howard brings in 90 million a year, you bring in 84 million a year is what this says. Is that correct?

[Bobbo]

That's absolutely correct.

[John Clay Wolf]

But see, Howard has to pay all of his people out of the 90.

[J.D. Ryan]

Million he pays his own folks.

[Wallace Edwards]

Right.

[Bobbo]

And I'm a solo act myself. You don't realize Howard Stern and I very close friends. He was actually at my All Men's Camp in California a couple weeks ago.

[J.D. Ryan]

Stop it.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, he was the Indian no, in our Village People karaoke group.

[J.D. Ryan]

He's never gonna.

[Bobbo]

Hell of a job.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's got the hair for it. I think you make more money than Howard Stern net because he has to pay a whole group of big talent.

[Bobbo]

Well, but John, look, we don't. We don't compare salaries that way. I do know for a fact that I'm spending mine better than Howard does.

[J.D. Ryan]

You are?

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you spend yours on?

[Bobbo]

He calls me all the time. I can't get a doctor to prescribe me Percocet to save my life. Yeah, he's all strung up. He's a very stressed out guy.

[J.D. Ryan]

Doesn't do drugs.

[Bobbo]

That's why. That's why he never wears shoes. He only listens to the Beatles and Christopher Cross records. Yeah, that Sailing Takes me away. That's his. That's his 99th time song. Every night. He's. He's a much more a light personality than you would think.

[J.D. Ryan]

I had no idea that he.

[John Clay Wolf]

I just wanted to clarify the. The money thing, so. So you are low 80 million a year.

[Bobbo]

Middle 80, we like to say.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you.

[Bobbo]

EIB Network.

[John Clay Wolf]

Jeff, good morning. In Arkansas, a BMW 335. Is it a convertible or a sedan or a coupe or what?

[Caller]

It is a sedan, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

It is a sedan 335 sedan and it is a turbocharged sedan. What city in Arkansas?

[Caller]

Bentonville, Arkansas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Walmart. Was this thing built with what was this car bought with Walmart money? Tell the truth.

[Caller]

One of the few that was not bought with Walmart wanted money, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, we've got a 335. Does it have a navigation screen and a sunroof in the big wheels?

[Caller]

It does, yes, yes and yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, Is it a sport package?

[Caller]

It is. The M sport package has the adjustable suspension.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller]

And it's the. The sexy look body style with the front and rear faces.

[John Clay Wolf]

Average MMR comps like real estate comps. Cars that have sold around the country. The same car, 175 is average MMR with 60s on the miles. Will that buy it?

[Caller]

Not today it won't.

[John Clay Wolf]

John. What would buy it?

[Caller]

I think you're closer to a 23 number.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh my God. I think you've been smoking. I don't think you've been smoking. That grass grazed in Arkansas. I think that you've had friends that bring you the good grass from Colorado to get you this high. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800800 radio. Jacob. If a 04 Cadillac CTS was 66 is nice. It's the old body style. But if it's really nice, then I'll give you four grand for it.

[Caller]

Hey, I appreciate that, John. That'd be excellent.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks. Just go to Give me the VIN. Givemethe vi.com Casey Kasem. Go get him. Hang on.

[J.D. Ryan]

Good morning, Johnny. Hi, how are you doing?

[Bobbo]

Great.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's been a crazy week. It's been a nutty week. There's been a ton and ton of Internet conspiracy theories.

[John Clay Wolf]

We lost Tom Petty, we lost a lot of people in Vegas. We lost Puerto Rico.

[J.D. Ryan]

We've lost a lot of happens though. People come up with a crazy conspiracy theory. So this morning we have the top 10 weird Internet theories that may or.

[John Clay Wolf]

May not be true.

[J.D. Ryan]

And some of these are actually circulating. Some I just made up because I.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like to here on a conspiracy Saturday, right?

[J.D. Ryan]

The Ice Bucket Challenge was actually an attempt to recruit and baptize Satanists. That one really ran around. Yes, 10 cruising Grandpa Munster and the same guy.

[John Clay Wolf]

True.

[J.D. Ryan]

That's true. Bigfoot is an alien. That's why they can't catch him. The earth is flat and so is your head. Joan Rivers was murdered in retaliation for revealing Michelle Obama was a trans woman. True story.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I. No, no, no, no. You said Joan Rivers. Yes, I've seen it. And I watching the conspiracy theory video videos on Michelle Obama being a man, it's pretty damn convincing.

[J.D. Ryan]

There's some bulges in the pants. I don't know.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

I don't know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Maybe she keeps her marbles down there.

[J.D. Ryan]

Florida. Florida. Fluoride in the water is for mind control. The government puts it in there and somehow Florida has a ton of it. Chemtrails are really spermicides sprayed over NASCAR tracks. Closed Walmart stores are being converted to into female war camps. Why wouldn't you? Space is not actually empty. It's filled with tiny demons trying to suck you into cyberspace. And my favorite is mirrors don't reflect. They actually are portals into a parallel universe containing evil. Your evil twin. And by the way, if you're not looking, your evil twin will jump out the mirror and kill you and take your place. That one is true. Keep your feet in the ground. Keep reaching for the stars.

[John Clay Wolf]

We Wallace Edwards was in during the 8 o' clock hour and he talked about Tom Petty and his cousin, his family, the NASCAR guys, the Petty brothers and Kyle Petty and all that. We might redo that in hour number four, but we have Wallace back. Good morning, Wallace.

[Bobbo]

Good morning, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

He has a hell of a story about Tom Petty. He does. Regarding Dwight Yoakum. I don't know if You've ever looked at a picture of Dwight Yoakum and seen how he speaks and then look at another picture side by side with Tom Petty?

[J.D. Ryan]

I'm picturing in my head, yeah, okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let'S listen to Wallace Edwards here. Catch us up on this whole theory.

[Bobbo]

Tom Petty burst upon the scene in the late 1970s and has since become one of the country's top selling acts, which can be seen as a bit of a miracle considering the heartbreaking lack of adult supervision in his life. Tom's father was long gone by the time of his birth. His mother, waitress Betty Petty, had by all accounts been a voracious lover of Gainesville, Florida's mix of cowboys and stock car drivers, what we might call in good old Southern parlance, a lovable slut. Accounts vary, but her co workers at the Gator House diner have attested that she left the job more often than not in the company of some hillbilly that she'd caught passing through town. And her son Tom, who'd never known his biological father, woke up daily with a new redneck uncle in the house, men who lived on Copenhagen and natural light beer, who wore their boots to bed and their cowboy hats in the shower, where they'd invariably be heard singing some old country and western tune and then hit the road.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hold on. Tom Petty's mom bedded down all these guys and he was influenced by these men in his home that were cowboys?

[Bobbo]

At this point, that's obvious.

[John Clay Wolf]

John, I'm just trying to. To catch up with you. I. I just didn't want to lose you. Cuz every word you say is gold. Go ahead.

[Bobbo]

I blinked and then they'd take off, never to be seen by Tom or his poor oversexed mother again. It's no wonder that an endless childhood exposure to one freewheeling honky tonk hero after another. Tom's art and music took on a decidedly un country tone. And by 1977 his band, the Heartbreakers, were on their way to top selling superstar status in the annals of rock music. It was in those days of real fame that rumors abounded that the elusive Tom Petty, who rarely gave interviews or appeared publicly without his band, was in fact fairly countrified in his private life. He established a home in Bakersfield, California's hillbilly capital, where he lived on corn pone and country gravy, never wore socks, developed a taste for expensive whiskey and cheap chewing, to bag and secretly maintain an enormous collection of traditional country and western records, rhinestone embroidered nudie suits and resist all hats. Add to this the emergence in 1981 of a new country singer with a decidedly polished, twangy style and a band that by all accounts looked and sounded just like the Heartbreakers. And it's an uncanny but undeniable fact that over the course of more than three decades, though their live tours have repeatedly brought them to the same towns at the same time, they've never been booked on the same date or seen on the same stage ever. And with the death of Tom Petty 1 week ago, there's still a lot we don't know about the strange relationship between Tom Petty and his alter ego, Dwight Yocum. Were they twins, separated at birth, or symptoms of a split personality and a young man who rejected his daddy issues into a new mode of expression? The only person who might have that answer would be Tom's mom, Betty Petty, who'd most likely take the question as a new kind of thrilling. Come on. And take you to her private room at Gainesville Golden Years, the nursing home where she resides today, in hopes of showing you, in her own kinky way that there's a little hillbilly in us all.

[Wallace Edwards]

And with that.

[Bobbo]

I'm Wallace Edwards.

[John Clay Wolf]

I hear it. I hear it, man.

[J.D. Ryan]

Hey, you.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

[John Clay Wolf]

Bouncer. Yeah.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Here at the property, at the office.

Building, at the studio.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Like a security guy.

[J.D. Ryan]

He's a homeless guy that hangs out.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Jerome. Y' all know about Jerome?

[J.D. Ryan]

He's a homeless guy.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Are you sure?

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, pretty sure.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why? Why did you think he was a bouncer? Yeah.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

All right, so I run early, you know?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

I mean, I know chipmunks are supposed to be nocturnal. Yeah, Nocturnal and all, but that's the only way to get ahead. Like I leave the tree Saturday is included. 4:30, dang. In the morning. Just get a jump on things.

[John Clay Wolf]

Really.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

I mean, them nuts on the ground ain't gonna pick themselves up.

[J.D. Ryan]

You're a go getter.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Like, you know they say the early bird gets the worm, right?

[J.D. Ryan]

Sure.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Well, the early chipmunk gets the nut.

[J.D. Ryan]

Makes sense, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, sure.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Well, I always run upstairs here, Yalls office because. And not to be overly critical, but your staff is maybe less than meticulous when it comes to hitting the trash can, you know?

[J.D. Ryan]

True.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

They take breaks up here.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

I'll find a little piece of honey.

[J.D. Ryan]

Bun here, throw stuff, maybe some cheese.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Nips there, maybe a little bit of leftover whopper Whopper. Because beggars and choosers do not carpool. Right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Anyway, I got up top of the stairs this morning. There's this dude I up there laying on a piece of cardboard.

[J.D. Ryan]

I've seen him.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And when he seen me, he jumped right up, he said, who are you? What you doing up here?

[John Clay Wolf]

You better not be trying to camp out here.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

This here's private property.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh my God.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Yeah, he's saying to me.

[J.D. Ryan]

He's saying to you?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And I'm like, well, who are you? Yeah, I work every day over here. It had all the makings of a heck of a scrap because the trash area had been picked clean. And you don't stand in between a motivated chipmunk and his honey bun first thing in the morning. And I'm like, where's all the grub? And he said he had to clean it all up. But he did have a big fat hooter that he found. So, you know, now we got high. God, that's always nice at 5 in the morning.

[Bobbo]

Not really.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

So he said his name was Jerome and he worked for Tasso, the owner of this building.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yes, Tasso.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And said it was his job to keep the homeless from sleeping around the place at night.

[Caller]

How appropriate.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Which was odd. Ironic, cuz he'd been laying on a piece of damn cardboard when I came up here.

[Caller]

Right.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And I noticed he kept looking at his Bag Kind of funny.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And that old stunk weed was kind of freaking me out.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, all right.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

What occurred to me? This guy's just another poor homeless fellow with a story.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yes, he is.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Cuz you don't often see a black fella wearing a Metallica T shirt.

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And whenever. Whatever you say about him, true story. I don't want to be unkind, but there's one thing a chipmunk knows that's true. The homeless will eat your ass.

[J.D. Ryan]

They will?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. Just like that.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

He's reaching into that old natty backpack and pulling out a butterfly net. He starts to shuffle at me. He's going, be still. Now, little fuzzy man, come to Jerome. Come to Jerome, like, talking to himself, all kind of Hannibal Lecter, like. And I got the hell out of there. And I took the hooter with me, too.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, man.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

And he followed me for five blocks all the way over to Vickery Street.

[John Clay Wolf]

I know.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, I got you.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

So I guess he takes his job seriously. No, but, I mean, don't take it wrong, but y' all got some freaky strange employees is all I gotta say. Been a weird morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, it has been.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Anyway. Oh, oh, here he comes. I got to go.

[Caller]

Oh.

[John Clay Wolf]

See you, Randy. Goodbye.

[J.D. Ryan]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's a spot on there that says, does this car need any repairs? And if you say no, then we take your word for it. And when we get there to pick it up, we do inspect the car against the report that you told us.

[J.D. Ryan]

I just don't take a picture of the left side. It'll Be all right.

[John Clay Wolf]

How did I get mad at us this week? Because we kicked one and it was covered in hail. Like, come on, guys. You can't see it in the pictures. We asked you straight up, is anything wrong? No. Well, the insurance check on the hail was 5,000. We only cut him 3,000. He was cussing, right? I was like, you know, I have been doing this for 20 years. You're not going to screw me. You might. There's a few that do. But over overall, we're gonna catch it. But overall, you guys tell the truth is what I enjoy. So. So it all works out. But. But just try not to be the smart one because it just causes everybody a lot of trouble and overworks people and wastes their time. Other than that, we'll buy the damn cars immediately. Money's always good. If you don't believe me, read our reviews. Like I said, you don't have to hear me say it anymore. Let our customers say it's all over the Internet. We'll.

[Caller]

You know, I've been looking around. I mean, I just. I. I haven't said what I want yet, but I figured I'd get rid of this and then figure it out.

Yeah, just. I mean that's. I don't know much on it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. How much do you know?

[Caller]

About 12.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. So we would pay off your lender and then we'll write you a check for the difference between the 32 and the 12. Where do you live still?

[Caller]

I'll do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Where do you live? Austin, Texas. Okay, we have drivers in Austin, Texas. Go to givemetheven.com, load it up and say, John bought this for me for 32 grand on the radio. What's next?

[Caller]

I was thinking the high 30s.

[Bobbo]

And have a nice healthy cuisine.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure.

[Bobbo]

But Antonio, due to his past difficulties with the utensils.

[J.D. Ryan]

Utensils.

[Bobbo]

You know he have trouble with the utensils because he has acid in front. Once at the Baskin Robbins he stick his little plastic sample spoon up his nose.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is this back when he was a little quarterback? Yes.

[Bobbo]

So so far. Yeah. That he scratches his brain. This is why he always break at the huddle by clapping out of rhythm. And he have no sense of smell. So he's still like the yum brand of family restaurants. Like at the Pizza Hut under the kfc.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Bobbo]

And the always delicious Taco Bell.

[John Clay Wolf]

So things you can eat with your hands.

[Bobbo]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, okay.

[Bobbo]

In fact, when he returned home just yesterday from the Tampa Bay his lovely wife Candace making him step onto their bathroom scale.

[J.D. Ryan]

Uhoh.

[Bobbo]

And he have gained 44 pounds in four weeks.

[J.D. Ryan]

How much that's possible.

[Bobbo]

He clock in at 270 pounds and he immediately take the scale and throw it out of the bathroom window like almost like a pitch back.

[J.D. Ryan]

He was upset.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

Right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Bobbo]

The scale traveled 130 yards.

[J.D. Ryan]

Wow.

[Bobbo]

In a loping spinning asion in quack. There were Numerous reports of UFOs in Irving, Texas that afternoon. Many of them could have been the bathroom scale.

[J.D. Ryan]

The scale.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

He throw it. He throw a high. A high loping UFO type, you know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

I can feel visualize it.

[Bobbo]

He can no longer wear his new sports coaster jacket from Joseph Ebank. He's all in his bail on his chest. So Candice put him on a diet this week.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

Of crackers.

[J.D. Ryan]

Crackers?

[Bobbo]

Un based picante sauce made by Mexican peoples in San Antonio who know what picante sauce. The ship shoot. The taste of life.

[John Clay Wolf]

Got you.

[Bobbo]

Please pray for him on the road.

[J.D. Ryan]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

That he may bring his way down and be the good looking Tony Romo that the world wants it to be.

[J.D. Ryan]

I don't think he's part of any way but okay. Thanks dad.

[Bobbo]

And always be careful with your children.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[J.D. Ryan]

Thank you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hurricane Nate. Thank you.

[J.D. Ryan]

Tonight seven o' clock due to be.

[John Clay Wolf]

A category two storm at Gulf coast landfall. Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

It'll be 85 mile an 85 to 90 mile an hour winds which you know. Well, it's not the end of the world but ain't great.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well I can tell you hurricane plus New Orleans just sends chills up many.

[J.D. Ryan]

Spots yes, understandably so.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wonder what Katrina was at this point. Did they know it was going to be this heavy? I don't remember. I wasn't three.

[J.D. Ryan]

Katrina jumped from a. Yeah, from a three to a four to five. Pretty quick.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, it could happen.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, very quick. Yeah, they rarely go down that quick. But they.

[John Clay Wolf]

Operation Airdrop has had their hands so full, you know, we're in Puerto Rico now.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's still going on.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, yeah. I mean we worked the Harvey deal and the Irma deal and now the Maria deal. We're actually loading up 50 water distillery filtration systems on a C130 really to head to Puerto Rico because the plastic bottles, I mean, they're going through them at such a high rate. The whole island going to be a big plastic bottle. So my partner Doug Jackson came up with this idea and we had FEMA on the phone last night in Washington talking to him about this concept.

[J.D. Ryan]

Started out being a couple private pilots, fly some diapers.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's ridiculous.

[J.D. Ryan]

Now you get FEMA in the White House.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's really grown. It's really grown. The MLB Players association really helped. They gave us a large donation and gave us the flexibility to work fast. And then FEMA actually has a private sector admin that's working with us. Anyway, we're losing a lot of people right now. Stay tuned. Everybody else, remember, the podcast is up. Give me the vin.com podcast will be up at 1 o'. Clock. See y'. All. And then the rest of you see in a minute.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let's jam through some of these calls real quick. And we get on to sports betting, a good old American pastime. Daniel 07 college games. 07 Toyota Avalon Unlimited with 140 on it. 3000, 3500. Maybe four. Maybe four. Go to give me, go to give me the Vinda. You're in Round Rock, Texas.

[Caller]

I am.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you're listening to us on the Zone down there, right? I am. Good morning. Good, good, good, good. Because we're new. We're new there.

[Caller]

Yeah, you are. But I've been word of mouth you're spreading around here pretty quick.

[John Clay Wolf]

We try to keep you guys entertained. I don't know if you've noticed.

[Caller]

Yes, I've noticed. I've been listening while I was getting the oil change, man, I wouldn't get.

[John Clay Wolf]

Out of the car. Thanks, man. Abilene, Texas bear 10208 Chevy half ton, 93,000 miles. Texas edition. Leather or cloth?

[Caller]

It's cloth.

[John Clay Wolf]

And is it extended cab or crew cab?

[Caller]

No, it's the single cab short bed.

[John Clay Wolf]

I didn't know they made a Texas edition single cab.

[Caller]

I'll send you a picture. It's one of. One of a kind one.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you make it yourself? Did you get. Huh.

[Caller]

No sir. No. This, it was my wife's grandmother's pickup.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right. I mean you know, it's, it's. God, I need to see it. I'm thinking eight, nine grand.

[Caller]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. And I'll buy it and I'll come out there and pick it up. Send me a picture. I, I don't know. Because I need to look at some comps on it. Because I've. To tell you the truth, I've never bought a Texas edition. Single. Single. Single cab. I didn't know it existed. Was your wife's grandma, does she have a big personality? Like the kind of one that would go to a shop and say turn this into a Texas edition?

[Caller]

No, she wasn't like that. She probably couldn't even tell you what a Texas edition was.

[John Clay Wolf]

But.

[Caller]

So it's just got the. It's got the 20 inch wheels and painted.

[John Clay Wolf]

Painted mirrors. Painted door handles. Right. All right, cool. We'll get it. 05 Crossfire with 80. Sean, it's probably two thousand dollar car.

[Caller]

The supercharged SRT6.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, it's more than that. It's probably five thousand dollar car.

[Caller]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yep. Just go to givemetheven.com and load it up. 06 Ram. I want to do this one first. Turley. 06 Ram. Ben, are you still there?

[Caller]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

So We've got a 250, 40,000 mile Cummins Mega Cab Laramie. 06 old body style, 1 ton. Is it a dually?

[Caller]

Yes sir. Got 35 with 2 inch wheel spacers on the rear.

[John Clay Wolf]

Damn, that's a lot of miles. But damn, that's a lot of truck. Okay, how many miles on the tires does it need? Tires?

[Caller]

I think it's got right about 30,000 on the tires. It's probably got about 20 to 30,000.

[John Clay Wolf]

Left on when they're that big. We might have a difference of opinion there. Does 15 grand buy it?

[Caller]

It'd get real close.

[John Clay Wolf]

It should go to give me the VIN. Let's look. Go to givemetheven.com pictures. We gotta have them. And on there say John's thinking 15, 16, 5 will buy it. When you guys put that on there, that speeds it up. It throws you to the front line, because we know it's a live one. Yeah.

[Caller]

And as what I'll do is, I'll thank you.

[John Clay Wolf]

8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. It's time for your gambling Saturday morning.

[Turley]

Degenerate gambling.

[John Clay Wolf]

Degenerate gambling. Okay, Charlie, last week, you and I made 4. 4 bets. I got some money and I have no idea who won, do you?

[Turley]

You won three and I won only one.

[John Clay Wolf]

You won the college ones, so you owed me 20. Now you owe me 35.

[Turley]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's wonderful.

[Turley]

So what I figured, why not just double it down, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Turley]

So we have 10 games. We're gonna go real quick because we're in so many cities. We'll do eight college games in cities that we're on. And then, of course, two professional games.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure.

[Turley]

First one, John, which is on right now.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's up?

[Turley]

Ohio I. Iowa State versus Oklahoma in Oklahoma. Oklahoma's 31 point favorite.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are we doing heads up?

[Turley]

We can do this one. We have to do the spread. It's 31 points. I think Oklahoma covers. What do you say?

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't know. You said Iowa. Which Iowa?

[Turley]

Iowa State. They're 2 and 2 in the Big 12. 31 points.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm. I'm not going to take the line. I mean, I'm going to. On the backside. I'm going to say that they don't cover. Okay. All right, so that's a big line.

[Turley]

I'm taking the points there. All right. The second game. Boy, LSU's falling apart. 230 today.

[John Clay Wolf]

I bet Les Miles is laughing.

[Turley]

Oh, I know he is.230. They play Florida. They're a 3 and 1.

[John Clay Wolf]

The Gators.

[Turley]

The Gators, yes. It's in Gainesville. Florida is favored by one and a half. You.

[John Clay Wolf]

You make the first call on this LSU.

[Turley]

Wait, Florida's favored by one and a half. Think LSU's gonna win straight up?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, no, no. Hell, no. They're not gonna win at all. Okay, so I'm under.

[Turley]

Okay, so you don't think one and.

[John Clay Wolf]

A half's enough points?

[Turley]

Are you?

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, no. Okay. Lsu, like, got beat by Sam Houston State team.

[Turley]

Let's move the spread. Where do you want to move it to?

[John Clay Wolf]

10.

[Turley]

10. All right, I'll go with you there.

[John Clay Wolf]

So that means that LSU would have by 10. No, I'm gonna move it up higher. Really? Yeah. 14.

[Turley]

14. I'm going there.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so you're taking Florida covers that.

[Turley]

That floor, yeah. You said LSU's gonna lose by 14. That's what you're saying, correct? Oh, at least 14.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Turley]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, well, if we were 10 and you were good, why don't we go back to 10?

[Turley]

Well, no, you already moved it to 14.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why? I got confused on where we were at. So you're taking the fact that they.

[Turley]

Won'T and I think they're gonna. Florida's gonna win. Right, but 10 points.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm jumping the line eight points. That's enough. 10's good. Good. 10's fair. I mean, I don't. You're not looking for handouts, are you?

[Turley]

No, no, no, of course not. All right, big game that probably the game of the week. I would say Virginia. West Virginia number 23 versus TCU at Fort Worth. Games at 230.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's the line on that?

[Turley]

The line is TCU's favored by 13 and a half.

[John Clay Wolf]

They won't beat that. All right. I don't.

[Turley]

I don't think so either. So we got to move that number down to a comfortable number. I think TCU went wins by six and a half.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, I'll take the over on that. Over and. Okay. And I'm not a pro gambler, so when I use that terminology, please understand. Am I saying it right?

[Turley]

Yeah, that was fine.

[John Clay Wolf]

I never placed a bet with a bookie besides Turley.

[J.D. Ryan]

Am I saying it right? How do you play pool?

[John Clay Wolf]

With this.

[Turley]

And this is pretend betting, by the way, folks. You know Arkansas we're on in Arkansas, right? Hey, they play South Carolina, three o'.

[John Clay Wolf]

Clock.

[Turley]

Arkansas is favored by three.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes. They cover that?

[Turley]

I don't think they do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, good.

[Turley]

All right, so I'm writing that down.

[John Clay Wolf]

And South Carolina SC. What is the record?

[Turley]

The Gamecocks are 3 and 2.

[John Clay Wolf]

And what is Arkansas's record? Same.

[Turley]

They are 2 and 2, I believe. Yeah, they're 2 and 2.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, this will be a good game. That's gonna be a good game. What time is that game?

[Turley]

That's at 3:00'.

[John Clay Wolf]

Clock.

[Turley]

So you kind of flip back.

[John Clay Wolf]

So I was gonna get a six pack of Natty Light Tall Boys, but I'm gonna go and get a 12. You better get a 12 because I think we're gonna have a full afternoon.

[Turley]

Oh, yes. At 4:00 Central. The raging Cajuns from Louisiana laugh yet playing Idaho.

[John Clay Wolf]

They're gonna win just cuz they're meaner.

[Turley]

Idaho.

[John Clay Wolf]

The blue turf Idaho.

[Turley]

No, this is the potato Idaho.

[John Clay Wolf]

Whatever.

[Turley]

They're called the.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because the blue turf Idaho will eat your ass.

[Turley]

It will eat dress.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's not. Not.

[Turley]

Boy, it's not Boise State.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right. You can tell. I really am up on the teams this year.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wait, is that the blue? I said like a chick making bets. Is that the blue turf? I love their uniforms.

[J.D. Ryan]

There's clash.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with Raging Cajuns. Beat the green turf, Idaho. Okay.

[Turley]

Straight up. All right, I'll take that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Whoa. Time. What's the line?

[Caller]

Wait a minute.

[Turley]

Well, Idaho is favored by six and a half.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, we're just doing the lines.

[Turley]

Okay, so you think I know nothing. All right, so Idaho. Do you think they're going to beat him by six and a half?

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Turley]

Saying no.

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Turley]

Okay. All right, so you got the under.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's a little cheap. He has the lines in front of me. He's like, okay, well, you wouldn't let me finish.

[Turley]

Texas at home versus Kansas State, 6 o' clock tonight. Another decent game.

[John Clay Wolf]

Texas going to win.

[Turley]

Texas is favored by six and a half.

[John Clay Wolf]

Texas is going to beat that.

[Turley]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because I watched them play ISC and they did a really good job. They have it in them. They can do something.

[Turley]

So they win by more than six.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes. All right.

[Turley]

I'm gonna take that on you.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right. Turley's confident. He's smiling while he's writing, so he thinks he's gonna. He's gonna. I'm up $35 season today, and you.

[J.D. Ryan]

Throw it all in here.

[Turley]

Monopoly money here. And of course, your team. SMU versus Houston, six o' clock tonight.

[John Clay Wolf]

Houston Toilet bowl, everybody.

[Turley]

It's in Houston. Houston's favored by seven.

[John Clay Wolf]

SMU wiped the. I'm gonna say to smu, smu, they're.

[Turley]

Four and one and Houston's three and one. This is.

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't believe that Houston beats the line. I don't know who wins, but I think it could be a nail biter down to the end. You want to do the over under a lot? No. Who won that over underline? You did the total points.

[Turley]

Yeah, it was not enough. I took the Texas Tech discord and.

[John Clay Wolf]

That was a lot of people on 84 total points. Yeah, that's a lot of points. That's a lot of points in peewee, man. Yeah. With like a bunch of white kids and one black and dump it. Okay, we got that. I had to dump myself because I made a bad comment. I apologize. And if you hear it on the podcast, that's why you go to the podcast. I'm sorry.

[Turley]

Okay, so SMU Houston in Houston. Linus Houston. Houston's favored by seven.

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't need a Jimmy the Greek moment. No, no.

[Turley]

You think Houston's gonna cover that?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, I think SMU wins, and I don't think you think SMU went straight up.

[Turley]

So they're not going to cover Houston.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Turley]

Okay, so you're taking smu, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

All right. But I get the points, too, right?

[Turley]

Okay, Well, I mean, if SMU wins and Houston's not going to cover the second.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. All right.

[Turley]

And we got one more college game.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hang on. He just screwed me again.

[J.D. Ryan]

What happened?

[John Clay Wolf]

Go ahead.

[Turley]

And then, Southern Miss versus UT San Antonio.

[John Clay Wolf]

You don't have to give up the points. When you make a comment, doesn't mean you just give away everything. Sorry. God almighty, Turley. I always told you you were Jewish.

[Bobbo]

We just wrote that rule.

[Turley]

Southern Mississippi versus UT San Antonio. Yes. San Antonio has a college football team.

[John Clay Wolf]

Pretty good one. And we're on a good station. Good afternoon, San Antonio. What is your mascot?

[Turley]

It looks like.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like a rooster. I don't know.

[Turley]

Oh, those are the Roadrunners.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's right. Caballeros.

[Turley]

No, they're the Roadrunners. UT San Antonio Roadrunner.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who are they playing? That's utep, isn't it?

[Turley]

No, UT San Antonio Roadrunners.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's utep?

[Turley]

Them Miners.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. There's no mining out in El Paso Iguanas anyway. The dope runners. The Tunners, the tunnel builders. The cartel. It's the cartel in the lead. The El Paso Cartel. Try to beat us, you'll regret it.

[Wallace Edwards]

Wow.

[Turley]

UT San Antonio is favored by 12.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who are they playing?

[Turley]

Southern Mississippi. I have no idea about any of these teams.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is that Hattiesburg?

[Turley]

It's in San Antonio at the Alamo.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who? Southern Mississippi. Is that?

[Turley]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's the line? 12.

[Turley]

San Antonio's favorite by. I think that's too many.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm going with Southern Miss. We can move it to 10 if you want. All right.

[Turley]

So 10. So UT will win by.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, anybody that's that closely related to a big. I mean, a SEC team, you know? So Southern Miss got some of the guys that Bama missed and Mississippi State missed and LSU missed. That's where I'm farming from. San Antonio has a lot of soccer players that decided to try on for football, but this year it's working out well. Now, I assume that San Antonio is really good in the field goal department. Why would you say that? So a lot of soccer players that. End of the world.

[Bobbo]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, you know. Yes. Common sense approach to gambling, Everybody.

[J.D. Ryan]

Jimmy.

[Turley]

The two professional games. Cowboys. Packers. Cowboys are favored by Two and a half at home against the Packers.

[John Clay Wolf]

I doubled down. I lost $100 to Jeff Corley last year. And he. I haven't paid him yet. And he said, you want to double down this year? I said, absolutely. So I'm going to stick with that.

[Turley]

So you think of the packers lose to the.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm thinking whatever the line is, is.

[Turley]

Cowboys win by two and a half.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Turley]

I think the packers win this one straight up.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm afraid you're right.

[Turley]

Hate to say that. And then last game, Chiefs, Texans Sunday night. Texans have all of a sudden come on with Watson at the quarterback. Chiefs are really good. They're four.

[John Clay Wolf]

No. What's the line?

[Turley]

The Chiefs are favored by one and a half and it's at Houston at the Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm gonna go with Texans because I love Houston. If you want a used car or to go to a topless bar, you go to Houston.

[Bobbo]

Houston, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[Turley]

I'll take the Chiefs in this game. I think it'll be a close one, but it's gonna be a good game. So either way.

[John Clay Wolf]

And there you go.

[Turley]

That's our degenerate gambling picks.

[John Clay Wolf]

And speaking of your stereotypical Oklahoma truck, here we have andy on line one zero one Dodge coming with 220,000 miles, but it is a four wheel drive and his old lady's cousin's niece's boyfriend just got it fixed. Good morning, Andy.

[Caller]

Good morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it average rough or clean?

[Caller]

I'd probably say I don't even care.

[John Clay Wolf]

800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. He just. It just. I felt the Oklahoma grudge in his voice. Yeah. No, no. The, the. I'm. It's gonna. No matter what I say, it's gonna be too high. Oh, yeah. I mean, I'm gonna be too low.

[Caller]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let's just do that one [e-mail] where our buyers are friendlier than your local radio host. John. Yes. You ought to hear our meetings. You do, but you know, they're like, you can't talk like that to customers. You do this because in the business front, I'm all pro.

[J.D. Ryan]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

And on the air, I'm all smartass. Sure. But they're like, but you're our lead leader and this is the way you talk. This is the way. But that's me.

[J.D. Ryan]

You do it on the radio.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. We're entertaining people on the radio. That's not off air. We're all straight business. We'll cut up a little bit. But you got to be nice to Oklahomans off air. But on Air.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's a bit.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bobbo. Good morning. Good day. Tom Petty. Wow. God rest. Rest his soul. Seriously, I wanna. I wanna do that Tom Petty and Kyle Petty deal. A minute ago, that Dwight Yoakum thing was way funnier than I remembered it.

[Bobbo]

That's a strange coincidence, isn't it?

[John Clay Wolf]

Between Dwight Yoakum and Tom Petty.

[Bobbo]

They do look an awful lot alike.

[John Clay Wolf]

And they sound alike. They've got the same bad teeth.

[Bobbo]

Same swagger on stage.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yep.

[Bobbo]

Not exactly the same. It's almost like Tom Petty wanted to swagger on stage. But when he's Dwight, yo come he can.

[J.D. Ryan]

And Dwight is so 6 foot 2 and Tom Petty is 5 foot 7.

[John Clay Wolf]

But Tom's wearing. I mean, Dwight's wearing high heel boots. The boots.

[J.D. Ryan]

The boots make that nine foot difference.

[Bobbo]

And a hat.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Have. How many times did you get to see Tom Petty in person, Bob?

[Bobbo]

1.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you invited me to go and I was too busy with life and that was stupid of me.

[Bobbo]

You know who the opening act was?

[John Clay Wolf]

Joe Walsh.

[Bobbo]

Joe Walsh missed a hell of a show.

[John Clay Wolf]

Was he. Is he good in concert? I know he's not now, but was he then?

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

That band is tighter than any rock band I think I may have ever seen. Journey. Journey was pretty close, but, yeah, the Heartbreakers are tight.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you think that the Heartbreakers are gonna recruit a Vietnamese man off of YouTube to be their lead singer?

[Turley]

I don't think they'll play.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know those guys, those Asians, man, they're good impersonators. Have you seen Journey's guy? How much does he look like Steve Perry to you?

[Bobbo]

Not at all.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. And it works out.

[Bobbo]

And he sounds just like him.

[John Clay Wolf]

The Heartbreak.

[J.D. Ryan]

Actually, he's a little tighter than Steve was. Hard to believe. He is stuff as he runs all over the stage.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's a little messy.

[J.D. Ryan]

[Radio Announcer]

Now back to the John Clay Wolf show. Hit him up right now. 1, 800, 800 radio. 1, 800, 800 radio. This is the John Clay Wolf show.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tornado. It's real, guys.

[J.D. Ryan]

Tonight at 7 o'. Clock, makes landfall.

[John Clay Wolf]

Mandatory evacuation ordered for Venetian Isle, Irish Bay Bayou and Lake Catherine so far south Louisiana, especially New Orleans parish. New Orleans parish. Understand this Hurricane Nate expected to be.

[J.D. Ryan]

A two when it hits landfall. It's a one right now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, I thought it was a two already.

[J.D. Ryan]

No, it's a one right now. They expected to make it a two before landfall tonight. Seven o'.

[John Clay Wolf]

Clock where you just said Nolan's does not hold water.

[J.D. Ryan]

Well, no, it doesn't. Hard to believe when you build a city under sea level.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, it ain't. It ain't funny. It's. It's. And we have a lot of listeners on. In New Orleans, listeners on Saturday morning. The good news is I'm sure you're paying attention, but just be sure to get updated and do not be a. Be smart. Don't be smart. Go ahead and hook them. No.

[J.D. Ryan]

Texas UT Goodness, it is fast moving, so it'll. It'll go through quickly. Unlike the other one. Just sat there and sat there and sat there.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm sitting here bidding Range Rover for a dealer in New Orleans right now, Right? Yeah, I'm bidding it dry.

[Turley]

Put it up in the second floor.

[John Clay Wolf]

I've got a bunch of cars in south Louisiana that I bought this week. I hope they don't get wet. I mean, wet's okay, but I mean wet, wet, wet, wet. Wet's no good. Hey, Matt. An 06 Pontiac Grand Prix with 160. Ironically, this is the car that we always make fun of because it's worth nothing.

[Caller]

Yes, that's what I was saying. To be worth nothing.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. And what I always say is, do you live in a. Do you live in a trailer park? Is question number one. And if you do, I suggest this evening during the. This afternoon during. During the ball games, after y' all have a few natty lights under your belt, y' all pick it up and put it in the dumpster. Of the trailer park. And that will be less expensive than what I would charge you to pick it up. 800-807. Go ahead.

[Turley]

Sorry, I hit the wrong button.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's fine.

[Caller]

Now, now, now. It ain't me, babe.

[John Clay Wolf]

It ain't me you're looking for, babe. I had more fun in. In Baton Rouge this week at the China Buffet. They recognize my voice. Really?

[J.D. Ryan]

Really.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, you just sitting there. Somebody walks up when I was talking to her. I. I recognize your boy. I recognize your boy. You want your nails done? You're a mannequin like you funny man on radio on Saturday. Really? Yes, yes.

[Bobbo]

You pedicure today. Oh, honey, why you no lie?

[John Clay Wolf]

And she hadn't even heard the donut shop jokes.

[J.D. Ryan]

Really?

[John Clay Wolf]

What about buffet jokes?

[Turley]

Is it same? I mean, is it kind of your theory? Actually, it's not even a joke.

[John Clay Wolf]

A theory. Well, the theory is that there's a kingpin, Fu Manchu, right. That backs all the donut shop operators.

[J.D. Ryan]

All over the country.

[John Clay Wolf]

And much like the Mary Kay pyramid scam, the pink there's a donut shop scam. And they advance with Lexuses. They're high mileage Lexuses. But if you look at like the new donut shop, the Ethiopian one that just opened, you know, they're driving 160,000 mile ES Lexus. And then you look at the more established donut shop, it's been around a while and they've had their time. They have two service points, not just one, two registers. They're driving the LX 470. And they move up from white 90,000 miles.

[Bobbo]

They move up from white with tan to black with tan.

[John Clay Wolf]

They start with maroon and blues because those are the cheap Lexuses. So when you buy your donut shop franchise, not. Not like a Dunkin Donuts franchise. I mean, the one from Fu Manchu, right? Sure. He gives you $30,000 to open the new donut shop. He gets half the proceeds out of. He advances you a high mile mileage, gives you that cheap Lexus. And then they just move them up to the rx. And then you can tell the success rate of the donut shop by what model of Lexus they're driving.

[J.D. Ryan]

There's an actual scale.

[John Clay Wolf]

None of them are registered to the donut shop owner. They're all registered to Fu Manchu. And I don't know if he's related to the Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl. What is a foo?

[Bobbo]

Foo is like a. Like when they graduate their Fu Manchu. A foo is like entry level, like a high school graduate.

[J.D. Ryan]

We know What a Foo Fighter is, right? No, Foo Fighters started back in World War II. Actually let me pull it up. Foo Fighter was used by allied aircraft pilots in World War II to describe various UFOs or mysterious aerial phenomenon seen in the skies over European and the Pacific theater. So that was actually something they saw up in the air. That was a Foo Fighter.

[John Clay Wolf]

Not to be confused with people that throw food at one one another.

[J.D. Ryan]

That would be Food Fighter.

[Bobbo]

That's different.

[J.D. Ryan]

Yeah, totally different.

[John Clay Wolf]

Or the band Foo Fighters, Food Fighter and Food Fighter.

[Bobbo]

That.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, they.

[J.D. Ryan]

So they took it from the military Food Fighters.

[John Clay Wolf]

Now that we know you're talking about your theory there.

[Turley]

So does the Chinese buffet have one.

[John Clay Wolf]

Too or no, I have not made this observation. I do. They have a stereotypical car that the owner slash gentleman manager is cruising, improving in. Because those Chinese buffets, General China, Grand China Grand Asian. When you get inside. Actually the placement of the buffet items sure are identical around the whole country, right. Every. There's a.

[J.D. Ryan]

There's like a little template.

[John Clay Wolf]

There is a book written on how.

[Bobbo]

To do this most and this is true. Most of the actual owners of the big buffets, you know those place started in the. In the 80s and 90s and they've been passed down to their oldest children. And so the cars that they drive generally are that Mitsubishi Eclipse with the giant spoiler in the back. You know, the Drifter Eclipse, the Lancer.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean the, the Grand Buffet in Vernon, Texas sure is the exact same layout. Utensils stick everything as the one in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as the one in Abilene, Texas, as the one on the bad parts of town in Dallas and Fort Worth and Houston.

[J.D. Ryan]

Plates are in the same place.

[John Clay Wolf]

Everything's the same. It's a franchise. I'm telling you. It's a black market underground franchise.

[Bobbo]

Ray Kroc was in the wrong industry.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's a guy that supplied. I mean the.

[J.D. Ryan]

Gotta be the.

[John Clay Wolf]

The baked crab, the crab claws imitation, the colors, it's all the same. It's all. So the guy that's the dealer of the product owns, he's fronting all these people.

[J.D. Ryan]

I'm just telling you he's pretty.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, there's no question. How do you roll off a boat and not even have your green card, but you can open a new restaurant. He's the accidental racist.

[J.D. Ryan]

But he happens to be right.

[Bobbo]

This time you gonna get fine. I find you your sweet sour. Not red enough.

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[J.D. Ryan]

No food for you.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, it's true.

[J.D. Ryan]

Let's say now that I think about it, you're Right. As you walk in. All the fried stuff's in the first line.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yep.

[J.D. Ryan]

The salad and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

And then the weird stuff's on the.

[John Clay Wolf]

Far side in the weird stuff. That's right.

[Randy the Chipmunk]

True.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's all the same, man. I need to check out what they're driving.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's a good question.

[Bobbo]

Why is the Kim.

[John Clay Wolf]

I understand this because I'm the dealer. I'm the wholesale dealer. I supply a lot of these dealerships, their inventories. Right. And I see these trends.

[J.D. Ryan]

You should be in the loop.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I'd rather be handling cars than crab claws. Yeah. There's more money in it.

[Bobbo]

And why do they always put the kimchi right next to the jello?

[John Clay Wolf]

I. Man, you're gonna have to ask Dr. Chu. Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

Because he's got the. He's got the plan.

[John Clay Wolf]

He lives in Midland. There's a.

[Turley]

There's some. Some psychologists that's studied this for some. For some reason.

[Bobbo]

Dr. Chew of the Midland with the fried stuff.

[J.D. Ryan]

Closest. Because the fat people like the fried stuff.

[John Clay Wolf]

Just because it says all you can eat does not mean eat all you can.

[J.D. Ryan]

You pet custo. You go now.

[Bobbo]

Why you stay for an hour?

[John Clay Wolf]

That's such a great. And the MSG dosages to fill you up.

[J.D. Ryan]

Oh, geez.

[John Clay Wolf]

Gotta be the same.

[J.D. Ryan]

Thought about that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

I just ate there yesterday actually.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you? It's so healthy.

[J.D. Ryan]

Last night. Good for you.

[Turley]

Conspiracy. Maybe they're doing this on purpose. To kill the white American.

[J.D. Ryan]

Makes sense.

[Radio Announcer]

Oh yeah.

[Turley]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you ever see I'm gonna get you sucker. Yeah. There was a whole deal about General Joe's or the General's chicken. And they were lacing the General's chicken with a chemical to make everybody change their mind about what the real generals thought it was. And he turned them into their soldiers.

[J.D. Ryan]

Zombies.

[John Clay Wolf]

Then it was the black people firing back. You just gotta watch what you're eating, man. Asians are killing us slowly with the.

[Bobbo]

King buffet with their delicious chicken. Holy God.

[J.D. Ryan]

Have you ever of heard of hay bales spontaneously combusting out of nowhere? Mike, you there? No. Okay.

[Caller]

No, I heard that.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it happens like the hay is sitting in the field and if you don't get it moved, they can literally combust like a fire start and it'll blow up. An 09 Volkswagen CC with 153is. Don't put it in your garage.

[J.D. Ryan]

Spontaneous combustion.

[John Clay Wolf]

It could blow up it any minute. It has zero life left in it. It will not if you give it to your kid. You don't like your kid. Wow. Give it to some, give it to an ex that you don't like. The car is just worth nothing to me. They just don't. They, they blow up. And, and same with the bugs. With these kind of miles, the motors won't last. I bet this thing's broke down right now. Does it even run?

[Caller]

Yeah, it runs.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, well, hang tight, man. Good luck with it. I don't want it. It. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. If you got a bunch of junk ass nothing, I'm gonna tell you, you got a bunch of junk ass nothing. If you got nice cars, even okay cars, I'll buy them all day. But junk ass nothing's worth 200 because it costs more than that to move him. Sure. And then watch them blow up.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does that buy it? No. Why?

[Caller]

Because I've already had offers for 13 plus already.

[John Clay Wolf]

Then I'm missing something and that's why I need the VIN. See, on these Nissans the VINs don't decode well. I mean that there's so many damn variations of these cars and changes the values. So can you go to givemetheven. What. What's it take to buy?

But I need the VIN numbers to be able to tell on these, especially these Nissans because there's so many variations of them. I know Infinity's not a Nissan, but it really is built in Nissan factories. Okay, 8008-072348-00800 radio earlier we had Wallace Edwards on in the first hour. I'd like to replay that. Did you. Did you. He's not with us right now, but yeah, it was. It's a story about Tom Petty in. In racing nascar. And it'll make you look at Tom Petty different than ever before. Wallace is staring at me. He wants I'M sorry. Wallace, how are you there?

[Wallace Edwards]

That's fine, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you. Last week we really enjoyed your Kurt Cobain behind the Music. I mean, you're really bringing to light some facts that people have never heard before about some of these musicians and this week's Todd Petty. Do you have a do you have a some interesting commentary on Todd? Tom.

[Wallace Edwards]

Well, John, most of the more notable names in rock music legend are inarguably extraordinary individuals gifted with a singular talent for songwriting and showmanship, and most will state that they've known they were destined to stardom at an early age. But many of rock's more fascinating stories concern absolutely common individuals who are ordinary in every way until changed by extraordinary and sometimes heartbreaking life events. And that's definitely been the case with Tom Dash. He was raised by a somewhat already famous family in Gainesville, Florida and was the nephew of NASCAR racing legend Richard Petty. As a child, Tom was a picture of absolute normalcy. Of course, he was a huge fan of stock car racing. Family records note that he spent most of his rural childhood playing cowboys and Indians and that his favorite foods were Kraft macaroni and cheese and Tang powdered orange drink. And his grades in elementary school culminated to an average score of C. He was right down the line. Average in every way. That is until the night of November 20th of 1960 when at the age of 10, Tom was involved in a high speed interstate collision while operating his father's car without permission. His older cousin Kyle had been teaching Tom to drive at the time, and while Kyle escaped the accident unharmed, the young Tom Petty wasn't as lucky. Though he survived the crash, Tom suffered irreversible head trauma and the loss of more than 18% of his prefrontal lobe and spent nearly four years in a coma. But he did bring something back from his long dream. Because he came back singing, his first apparent sign of life was a medium pitched humming accompanied by a rhythmic side to side rocking of his head and a lackadais smile. When he awoke, coincidentally during the Beatles now historic performance on the Ed Sullivan show In February of 1964, Tom was figuratively an infant. He couldn't speak, walk, read or even feed himself, much less take himself to the bathroom. Even after years of rehabilitation, which was a slow, difficult process, Tom's speech would remain slurred and somewhat difficult to understand for the rest of his life. And though to this day he'll always be a virtually learning disabled survivor of severe brain injury with the intelligence of a 10 year old Southern boy, it's an Extraordinarily quirky singing voice and a very lucky knack for finding the right chords on a guitar that have brought great acclaim and a career now spanning more than 30 years. To Tom Petty, who still likes Tang with Mac and cheese, loves the Beatles, and swears he'll never ride in a.

[Bobbo]

Car with Kyle Petty again.

[Wallace Edwards]

And that's this week's Today in Rock history. I'm Wallace Edwards. Now back to the Real Deal with John Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

I bet you didn't know that.

[J.D. Ryan]

I didn't.

[John Clay Wolf]

Mo Dallas. Good morning.

[Caller]

Morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

So we've got a 9094 Impala SS. What color? Green. Okay, tell me how factory is it? Meaning has it been.

[Caller]

I got 24 inch wheels on there. It's about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like the seats, do they have cracks in them?

[Caller]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does the paint have fade on it?

[Caller]

No, it paints clean.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it redone or is it factory?

[Caller]

It's all factory.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, that's good. 73,000 miles. Are they actual?

[Caller]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have the factory wheels?

[Caller]

I think I do.

[John Clay Wolf]

I think I'd rather have it with those if it's a good mile car like this. So, ladies and gentlemen, what we're talking about is an older Impala SS that they didn't make a whole lot of. And now the good ones are, you know, they're worth more money than they were. The junkie ones are still, you know, two grand. But if you. So Mo, do you have a good one or do you have a junkie one?

[Caller]

No, it's a good one. Was passed down from a grandpa to me.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it like a five thousand dollar rig?

[Caller]

Nah, I was hoping to get more than that.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's it take to buy it?

[Caller]

I was hoping at least seven.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I very well could be your seven grand buyer, but I'm gonna have to see some photos of it. Do you have a camera on your phone?

[Caller]

No. Yeah, I do. I do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Take a few pictures. Go to givemetheven.com, put the VIN number in there correctly so I can pull up the history on it. Because my system will pull up the vehicle history and we'll verify the miles and then I'll look at these pictures. And you're here in Dallas. And. And I'll send somebody over to your house to pick it up if we got a deal at seven grand.

[Caller]

Okay, sounds like a plan.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks, man. 800. 800. Seven, two, three, four. That's a 094 Impala SS. I want to buy that rig. Farren.

[Caller]

Hey, how you doing, sir?

[John Clay Wolf]

What city? Let me guess. Abilene.

[Caller]

Well, I live 20 miles south of Abilene in a little town called Baird, Texas. But you can say Abilene.

[John Clay Wolf]

Home of Jay Hanner. Yes.

[Caller]

Yes, sir. I bought it at Hannah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Brand new. When I first got the business in 1990 and 6. I'd sit out there with Chick Lassiter at Hanner, and we'd bid cars on Saturdays when I was learning the damn trade.

[Caller]

I bet that was cool as shit then. So you know exactly where I'm at, then.

[John Clay Wolf]

I do.

[Caller]

Truck came From. That's where I bought it with Hannah. It had 300 miles on it when I bought it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller]

But I. I was listening to the show, and I'm just curious. I mean, I'm thinking about getting another new one, but instead of trading this in and getting upside down, if I can sell and get out from underneath it and get another one, that would be a better deal, wouldn't it?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes, yes. Yes, do this.

[Caller]

Anything wrong with it?

[John Clay Wolf]

No. No. I'm running out of time. Will you go to givemetheven.com, load the VIN number, take a couple of pictures and push it up in, and I'll get to you after. After we get off the air.

[Caller]

That's fine.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, thanks, man. 800-800-7 2, 3, 4, and Gabriel in Austin. Gabe in Austin.

[Caller]

Yes. Hi.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey.

[Caller]

How are you?

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you listen to the Zone in Austin a lot or just every once in a while?

[Caller]

No, I listen all the time.

[John Clay Wolf]

How do we fit in on this station? Are we too rough? Are we too soft? Are we. Are we. Are we just slide in with the rest of the stick.

[Caller]

I think you're good.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. I think you're good. Austin's very sensitive. I've noticed. You know, it's very easy to offend Austinites. I'm not saying you're that way, but we. They're tender. Yeah, they're tender. Most of the problems we've had with our content has been out of Austin. Isn't that weird?

[Caller]

Yeah, I can see that.

[J.D. Ryan]

But they're supposed to be liberal.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, you're not gonna lie. You're fixing to get offended with where I bid this car with 134, 000 miles because 06 BMW 3 Series with a buck 30 is worth $2,500.

[Caller]

Okay. Yeah, that's. I. I was afraid of that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, will you time stamp that and cut it and send it to the program directors in Austin?

[J.D. Ryan]

Man. Oh, man. I can offend you. Do you want me to.

[Caller]

No, no. I mean, no, let's not do that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[J.D. Ryan]

Wise move.

[John Clay Wolf]

What have you got?

[Caller]

2008 Mustang GT.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it all lowered and has, like, Cheech and Chong dingle balls hanging from the rear view mirror?

[Bobbo]

Yes.

[Caller]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, then you're not living right. Gabe, he's not a hater. He's a Texan. He's the accidental racist. Go to give me the vin.com and load it up. Let me see the pictures. I want. I don't believe you. That it's not all ghettoed and chiloed out. 800-800-7234. Wow. 800, 800 radio. We're just having fun. You guys are a bunch of tender but hurt. Having a good time. We've been too soft today. So I'm trying to throw a few punches here at the end to let everybody know that I'm feeling okay.

[Bobbo]

We have been very light today.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's all fun and games till the next hurricane hits. All right, if you. New Orleans, be careful tonight. Seven o'.

[John Clay Wolf]

Clock. Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

High winds. Nate's coming to town.

[John Clay Wolf]

High winds.

[J.D. Ryan]

High winds and about 90m hour. That's no big deal.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, unless it turns into Cat 4 and floods the whole place that's the problem.

[J.D. Ryan]

It's not the wind. It's the flooding.

[John Clay Wolf]

And the flooding and the storm surge. Surge. Be careful, South Louisiana. We don't need a repeat. You guys are smarter than that. You know, to get the hell out of there. And 49 can hold a lot of traffic. But you got to get to the point where you can get up there.

[J.D. Ryan]

Get out of town.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because it's not that easy traveling on Louisiana roads. No, it's still screwed up.

[J.D. Ryan]

And if you wait until 6 o', clock, it's going to be packed.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[J.D. Ryan]

So do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Now, the interstate will move, but getting to the interstate, you won't be able to move. All right, Little. Who is this? Bob, don't tell me. I know who this is. It is not Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, but it's Buffalo Springfield. See you next week. See you.

[Bobbo]

Locker out? I'm out.

[John Clay Wolf]

Back to the money. Time is money. It's good.
