He's. He's an angry Jew in my book.
Bobbo

J.D. Ryan
Okay, Are we done with Jewish? With The Mickey Mouse?

Oh yeah, dj. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
Bobbo
Prek.
John Clay Wolf
God, Whitey, Blackie.
DJ Prek
What's the damn deal?
John Clay Wolf
You're not talking in the mics. The damn deal.
DJ Prek
Hey, man, I'm talking right into it.
John Clay Wolf
Typical white black guy, can't follow instruction.
DJ Prek
1, 2, 1 2. Can you hear me now?
John Clay Wolf
I can. How's your life been, Prek? I've not spoken with you in a while.
DJ Prek
Oh, man, it's been blessed, man. I've been getting money lately.
John Clay Wolf
Party City treating you right?
DJ Prek
Hey, man, you know I had to ditch the Party City gig, man. I'm getting money with the after Dot Com.
John Clay Wolf
After Valentine's Day, you're like, I'm out of here. I've b all the balloons I'm going to blow.
DJ Prek
Yeah, man, I had enough of the heart shaped balloons, dog.
John Clay Wolf
You quit blowing tricks on the corner at Party City.
Bobbo
He's still trying by that gig too. He's telling me before the show he still has nightmares About Buzz Lightyear.
John Clay Wolf
808 scary sight. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. We are going to get a new phone number too, by the way. I don't know. I don't know what it is. I know why.
J.D. Ryan
Because this one's worked so well and everybody knows it.
John Clay Wolf
We need to change it.
J.D. Ryan
It's called New Coke. Let's do that.
Bobbo
Yeah, that. That's bad.
John Clay Wolf
See, if you wanted to sell us your car. If you want to sell me your car, get a bit on your car. Call in the show. If you. If it's a hoopty, I'm going to call it a hoopty. I'm going to make fun of you. If you're going to waste our air time with $500 junk, I'm going to use you as example, as a stage product. So it. You heard it here first, folks. If you got a nice Corvette, nice diesel truck, anything over five grand, but anything back of five grand, you're gambling we'll still buy it. But wasting airtime with it. You're gambling with your. With your Persona. You're gambling with your confidence because JD May devain.
J.D. Ryan
You made fun of me on the radio. The guy called last week, the drunk sitting in the parking lot. By the way, speaking of last week, you know, just at the party, everybody who they were asking for at the party, besides Bobbo and of course you, DJ Prek. DJ Pre K. No way. Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Swear to God.
J.D. Ryan
There was a lot, a lot of that.
John Clay Wolf
A lot of that. There was. I swear to God. Swear. I swear to God.
J.D. Ryan
Not bring. I'm not making.
John Clay Wolf
And it just shows the culture change. I mean, you see all the, all the interracial couples now.
Bobbo
Did anybody.
John Clay Wolf
They're attracted to DJ Prek, who is a walking white black man. Exactly.
Bobbo
Did anybody come up to you, JD and, and say Prek like you were Prek? No.
J.D. Ryan
I do that to you.
Bobbo
I'll tell you a secret, okay. Because a lot of people said, where's Prek? And I was pointed at JD Shack ass across the room. No, but you know, I don't want to disappoint anybody.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Okay, so. Well, there he is. They were probably quite disappointed if they thought I was the whitey blackie man.
Turley
Well, he's gonna have to make his appearance that the next event we do.
J.D. Ryan
No doubt.
John Clay Wolf
The two at the thousandth and tenth show.
Turley
Is that what it's gonna be?
John Clay Wolf
I don't know. We do need to do it again though. We need to do it in Dallas. That was too much fun. We've got to do it a listeners party up here like we did in Houston last week and thank everyone in Houston that came out for coming out or Houston, hell, San Antonio, Austin, Beaumont, Louisiana. We had a lot of people come. About 300 people showed up over a.
J.D. Ryan
Couple hours on a rainy Saturday morning.
John Clay Wolf
And one guy, and I think it was the son of a. He got there a little early, but he'd been. He'd been nipping. And he drove his Honda Pilot. That was his brother in law's.
Turley
I think it was an Expedition, wasn't it?
John Clay Wolf
No, it's on the Pilot because his brother in law's. Because his truck was in the shop getting relift. You know it's like a boob when they go back in for another lift.
J.D. Ryan
Right back up a little bit.
John Clay Wolf
Another boob job.
Bobbo
Just not enough.
John Clay Wolf
Just not enough. So the son of a bitch had his truck in four wheel parts or something getting going from 4 inches to 8 inch lift. And he was driving his brother in law's Honda Pilot. And he'd been drinking, of course, Natty lights. And he drove off a ledge. Ledge in the parking lot where we were.
Bobbo
Yeah, but not all the way off the ledge. He just re wheeled it right off.
J.D. Ryan
Didn't quite make it.
John Clay Wolf
It's on the John Clay Wolf show.
Bobbo
He was so proud.
John Clay Wolf
Do you have any son of a. For new listeners who can understand who the son of a is? Yeah, he's famous.
Bobbo
His new assistant will meet only one requisite score and it's spelled double D. He's not picky about any particular brand of coffee because his morning cup is only a hiding place for whiskey. He always cuts in line at Starbucks and Chick Fil A because all their other clientele are a bunch of. He is the world's biggest son of a. Hey, man. I don't always drink beer, but when I do make mine a Natty life. Tall boy.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, buddy. That's him. And he lived up to his can he ever.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, that were already lit.
John Clay Wolf
That was a fun deal though. I was surprised with Eterna. I wasn't expecting to meet that many people.
J.D. Ryan
Really.
John Clay Wolf
No.
Bobbo
Were you?
J.D. Ryan
You never know in a deal like that. I mean you.
John Clay Wolf
What I've heard about radio deals is you do know nobody shows up.
J.D. Ryan
It depends on where it is. But. But this kind of a party. No, because everybody's looking forward. First of all, we don't do it all the time. It wasn't at a car dealership. It wasn't some place. That was obvious. Oh, they're just trying to get me to go buy lumber or something.
Turley
Not at a strip club where people would actually be at.
John Clay Wolf
And it wasn't like hanging on the doorstep of a baseball game or a concert.
J.D. Ryan
Right. It was just. It was just a party. And look, dude, you've been places. You've been odd places, as have I, and people go.
John Clay Wolf
Chuck Clay Wolf show.
Bobbo
Oh, my God.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, just weird spots. Walking through the Home Depot a couple of weeks ago.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
J.D. ryan. Y' all listen to Every Saturday with John Clay Wolf show. I mean, everywhere.
John Clay Wolf
I'd like to thank all the officers out there and the traffic ticket officers that recognize my name on my driver's license and help me out to get to the studio a little quicker on Saturday mornings because that's where it.
Caller/Guest
Where.
John Clay Wolf
Where I've really had some. I know, Good luck, some good vibes, some good karma.
J.D. Ryan
Well, that was with CBS.
John Clay Wolf
Sir, were you going 77 and a 65? Man, I don't know. I didn't think so. Give me your license. No. Look at you, my boy.
J.D. Ryan
Son of a. I used to hang my media pass around my real rear view mirror that way. It's just kind of hanging there. In case you want to read it, Officer.
John Clay Wolf
Just in case.
J.D. Ryan
Just in case.
John Clay Wolf
J.D. ryan, everybody. That's J.D. ryan. Did you know that?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I'm on my way to the radio studio. That's why I'm speeding.
John Clay Wolf
That's my line.
Caller/Guest
Guess who I just pulled over.
Bobbo
It's unit 42. I got the John Clay Wolf. The John Clay Wolf.
J.D. Ryan
Hell, no, I didn't write him up.
Bobbo
He signed my bag.
John Clay Wolf
Did you have fun, Bob?
Bobbo
I had a ball. I had a blast. But I'm, you know.
John Clay Wolf
You didn't have a nut.
Bobbo
I'm kind of.
John Clay Wolf
That Randy took it.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, here we go.
Bobbo
I want to. I had a great time with that girl.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, yeah.
Turley
You want to reset for everybody?
John Clay Wolf
What I'm talking about Bobbo. There was a groupie friend, friend of the show.
J.D. Ryan
Friend of the show.
Bobbo
Long time friend.
John Clay Wolf
Long time friend of the show. And she drove up, you know, 100 miles, and she. We took her. It was unplanned. She was staying at the High, where we were.
Bobbo
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And she was like, hey. And I'm like, hey, why don't we take her to dinner with us? Good call. We went to Trulux and bought her dinner and got to know her better. Her and Bobbo made eyes, and they wind up, you know, three hours later back in his room. So this is a woman that listens to Bobbo and gets tingled by his pleasures. Every Saturday morning for years, drives across Texas to meet him.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
Bobbo
Beaumont to Houston.
John Clay Wolf
It's an hour and a half. That's all.
Bobbo
No, I wouldn't do it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
I wouldn't do.
John Clay Wolf
Just rinse room. She's a fan.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, Just a fan.
John Clay Wolf
Papa winds up in the hotel room with her.
Bobbo
Clearly.
John Clay Wolf
Late night. Both intoxicated.
J.D. Ryan
Yes, they were. I watched it happen.
John Clay Wolf
And he can't close. And I still don't understand.
Bobbo
Well, you and I probably have a totally different approach to this kind of thing.
John Clay Wolf
Obviously.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I've got four kids. Obviously.
Bobbo
I was telling JD Though. You remember I told you I'm a make him waiter.
J.D. Ryan
Make them waiter.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but you've been making her wait for seven years. See, that's. That's my problem with this, is that she's been listening to you and thinking about this for a long time. Drives. Drives across Texas for you. I think somebody sang a song about that. And rents a hotel with her. Hard earned money. A couple Hunskies.
Bobbo
Yeah. Her room was.
John Clay Wolf
Her friend flaked out. She kept trucking. You're in bed with this woman? She's 45 years old. She's not 22.
Bobbo
No. She's quality. Quality stock.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobbo
Quality.
John Clay Wolf
Been married.
J.D. Ryan
Beautiful.
John Clay Wolf
She's not a virgin.
J.D. Ryan
Probably not.
John Clay Wolf
Not a virgin.
Bobbo
Dream girl. Perfect for me.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobbo
A little crazy. A little bit crazy. You gotta admit.
John Clay Wolf
You gotta admit, they all are. She. Baba. She's a little bit crazy. But in a good way.
Givemethevin.com Announcer
Yeah.
Bobbo
It takes one to know one.
John Clay Wolf
But she is. So you're in the room with her.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And you told me something about taking off boots.
Bobbo
I was. Here's the thing, man. Like, I'm an 80s kid.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobbo
And I've seen too much of. Not Spicoli. Who's the other guy? Damone.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobbo
Right. I worship this type of guy. I became that guy when I was like 14 years old. I'm like, you gotta move your body. Right?
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobbo
You know, wherever you want.
John Clay Wolf
Make.
Bobbo
Make sure they know it's the place to be.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobbo
So I'm like Mr. Cool going in there. Just despite my, you know, visible whatever, keep track handicap. We're drinking wine, having a ball, and I'm thinking, the next thing.
John Clay Wolf
Visible handicap.
Bobbo
The next thing.
John Clay Wolf
You're not an ugly man. Well, I don't think you're an ugly man. You know, fat is funny. You're John Belushi looking. Is John Belushi an ugly man?
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Not at all.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't think so. No.
Bobbo
No. The Lothario in some cultures is. That's the guy you want thinking. I'm trying to think of like a McConaughey esque way to say, hey, baby, I think we ought to get you out of them boots.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Bobbo
You know, so did you. It'll all turn for. I didn't get it. Didn't get.
John Clay Wolf
So you're sitting. She's on your bed, and you're on the couch.
Bobbo
This wasn't all just sitting around. You got the wrong picture. Like, we drank a lot of wine. We still had a lot of wine left. And she said, the wine's gonna get warm. Okay, let's go for ice.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Bobbo
And she's already obviously sculpted the whole hotel out because she said ice is on levels two, four, and six.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Right.
Bobbo
So.
John Clay Wolf
Or she's a hooker and she knows her way around a hotel floor plan.
Bobbo
So I say, hey, I'm gonna go get some ice. He goes, all right, let's go. Well, she's obvious. She's coming with me. So the stairs were right outside of my room, which was right next to your room. We went down to four and got some ice, and the ice wouldn't quite come out. So I'm kicking the ice machine. And she said, you know, the people with the rooms right next to the ice machine, they're the ones that the front desk help. Really hate because it's always loud at the ice machines. I thought, wow. So we checked on. On six and on two, and sure enough, the ice machines were kind of in a drabby.
John Clay Wolf
So y' all have your tongue hanging out by the time you get back to the hotel.
Bobbo
Oh, man, we're running around like Hunter Thompson in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, just having a ball.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Bobbo
Laughing out loud, stumbling, you know?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
What time?
Bobbo
I'm not proud.
John Clay Wolf
What time is it?
Bobbo
Got to be like 1:45, 2:00 in the morning. We're having a ball. I think I'm going to get her back there, you know, just exhausted. That's going to be a perfect end to a perfect day. Went pretty good.
John Clay Wolf
Then What?
Bobbo
Got about 2 o'.
John Clay Wolf
Clock.
Bobbo
Got about 2 o'.
John Clay Wolf
Clock.
Bobbo
And I made the cardinal mistake. I said, well, you know, I got to be up here in about three hours trying to move things along. But she's like, you said, she's not a kid. She's not a 20 something.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobbo
She's a 40 something. She's heard this before. She probably says this herself every night of the week. I gotta go.
John Clay Wolf
I think if you took your. If you would have. I think that that stuff was so easy. Have you ever seen the Clapper commercial?
Bobbo
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
I think you could have gone and the boots would have flown off.
Bobbo
I think you may be Right. Woman had a lot of character, you know. So we're still in touch. She's a great girl. You know, this, this may not be over.
John Clay Wolf
So when you said, I've got to go, I've got three hours, that's what I said.
Bobbo
I've got to be on the air in three hours.
John Clay Wolf
She said, okay, bye.
Bobbo
Well, she said, oh, oh, I understand. Now it's like I'm running her off. So I, I walked her to a room which is on the 11th floor.
John Clay Wolf
This started at 7:30.
J.D. Ryan
7:30, yeah. I left them at 11:15.
John Clay Wolf
So it's 2:00am you know. But did you kiss her?
Bobbo
Here's the thing, John. There is no disrespect in respecting a woman.
J.D. Ryan
Okay?
John Clay Wolf
Did you kiss her?
Bobbo
No. I know you're the great international lover and you've been on everything but the Titanic because you're so good at it. You've been married for 15 years or something. Yeah, I mean, I know what to do. I know how it is.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, what we're talking about is basic blocking and tackling. This is not Washington poop wipe. I mean, this is not. You don't have to be a great international lover to close that deal, bud.
Bobbo
I know. And I've never, I've never been more disappointed. I haven't either, by the way things can go.
John Clay Wolf
But I thought I was disappointed in my father and I haven't talked to him in three or something years. I think I'm more disappointed in you, son.
J.D. Ryan
That ain't.
John Clay Wolf
Well, right now at this moment.
Bobbo
Get in line.
J.D. Ryan
That ain't no way to have fun.
Bobbo
Because I, I tend to engender that kind of thing.
John Clay Wolf
We'll be back in a minute. My name's John Clay Wolf. Bo, JD And Turley. And we will buy your car. If you want to call in 800-800-RADIO or just go to givemetheven.com.

John Clay Wolf
Well, our phones are screwed up. That makes sense. Guys, if you're trying to get into us and you're having trouble. 817-377-0827. We might get the vanity number, the 800, the radio number fixed before the show's over for right now. If you need to get into us. If you're trying to call earlier and getting nothing. 817-377. Hey, DJ, put that on the Chocolate Wolf shape the Facebook page. Please call in number for people so they just remember to go to the Facebook page to get it, because who the hell's gonna remember all those numbers? I can't remember them. It is right in front of me. 817-377-0827. And DJ Pre K Whitey Blackie is putting that number on our show page on Facebook right now. Oh, good morning, everyone. Dallas, Houston, Louisiana. Oklahoma. Indian country.
Bobbo
What?
John Clay Wolf
It's Indian country. It's a sovereign nation. Man, you can smoke grass up there. We better appreciate the good word and date young women. That's why all the miles on the trucks are so high. Because they travel. They drive over to those third world countries to go pick up their women.
Bobbo
Yeah. Trucks ain't the only things hide over the whole.
John Clay Wolf
All right, all right, all right, all right. Houston Rodeo. Okay, when is the Houston Rodeo?
J.D. Ryan
I looked it up.
John Clay Wolf
It's coming.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
The Rockets have been on the road.
Bobbo
They've been on a hell of a run. 16 of the last 18 games.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
Bobbo
Yeah. That's a.
J.D. Ryan
That's a.
Bobbo
That's as of Wednesday after they beat the Timberwolves, which was a hell of a game.
John Clay Wolf
We need to get in there. Go to Rockets game. I enjoyed my time in Houston last week. I haven't been enough lately. I've been working so much. I haven't traveled anywhere, but I used to go to Houston twice a month.
Bobbo
Every little bit of that was outstanding. It's amazing to me that you guys don't seem to travel as well as I do.
John Clay Wolf
What?
Bobbo
But maybe it's just that. Well, I mean, because. Why aren't we walking around in the rain on Friday night?
J.D. Ryan
We were looking for a CVS so you could buy white wine so you could get this girl drunk and finish the deal.
Bobbo
Which you didn't do. No, we were looking for a Walgreens CVS because you didn't have a brew.
John Clay Wolf
He buys his wine at cvs.
Bobbo
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, go ahead, Bob.
Bobbo
And you can, too. We were looking for a Walgreens same thing. Because you didn't bring a hairbrush.
J.D. Ryan
Exactly. But what do we end up buying? White wine.
John Clay Wolf
White wine and rubbers.
J.D. Ryan
A large bottle of white wine.
John Clay Wolf
I need a box of pink wine and a 12 pack of condoms. What kind of condoms? I don't know. Give me some condoms.
Bobbo
Give me some little large trojan with a rib for her time. And I'm gonna need some D batteries.
John Clay Wolf
I don't even want to know why you need do better. Does the rib for her time work?
J.D. Ryan
No, apparently. No.
John Clay Wolf
I mean Bob. I mean, have you ever had one in you, J.D.
J.D. Ryan
No, never.
Bobbo
J hasn't used a condom since 1975.
J.D. Ryan
Wait a minute. Hold on. That's pretty close.
John Clay Wolf
But they run those commercials. You rib for her pleasure. I'd like someone to call in. That's a famalian. Tell me if it. If it works. It's amazing. I don't think it works, Robert. Nothing. Nothing like a low mile truck to start the day off right.
Caller/Guest
It is the Trillo miles, man.
John Clay Wolf
Good lord. I mean, they're like Oklahoma miles. Did you used to live in Oklahoma, Robert?
Caller/Guest
Nah.
John Clay Wolf
Holy.
Caller/Guest
It's all Texas.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. You didn't live in the city though. Did you live in Kennedale or something? You had to be Springtown.
Caller/Guest
No, I live in Burleson, man.
Bobbo
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
413, 000 miles on a 99F 350, literally.
Caller/Guest
And it runs like a champ. And it is beautiful.
J.D. Ryan
All right.
John Clay Wolf
What do you want for it? Two wheel drive.
Caller/Guest
I want as much as I can get. I want 50, 000. That's what all these little young punks think that they're worth.
John Clay Wolf
That's true. Isn't that funny? Isn't that funny? Those diesel boards, how they just. It's like a ghetto.
Caller/Guest
Ghetto market pretty much. Maybe 8ish.
John Clay Wolf
You're stoned off your ass.
Caller/Guest
I wish I was. Damn.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, just stoned off your ass like Bob Dylan was singing about. Like.
Caller/Guest
Like.
John Clay Wolf
Put your back against a wall and put your arms up. We'll just throw rocks at you. Yes. Eight grand for a 99F 350, but only 400.
Caller/Guest
Two wheel drive, power stroke. It's got the engine everybody wants and it's clean.
John Clay Wolf
I know this voice.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I know this buddy of yours.
John Clay Wolf
What's your last name?
Caller/Guest
Gersten Corn.
John Clay Wolf
No, no. Damn. How would I ever forget that? Robert Gerst coming up. I'm looking for Robert Gersten corn with a 99 power stroke with 400,000 miles.
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Damn, I lost him. 800.
Turley
800.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no, no, NO. It's 817-377-0827. I didn't bid it. We're so far off, I. I have 200,000 miles. Seven three four wheel drives that I can't get six grand for. Here, here, here. They all pour in. Oh boy. Hey, could you hold this check for a year? I'm gonna buy it out there in.
Bobbo
The desert making Manhattan Project. Two things they invented out there, the atomic bomb and the 7.3 liter Powerstroke.
John Clay Wolf
Cummins is for P words 400 000.
J.D. Ryan
That's literally to the moon and halfway back powerful.
John Clay Wolf
You know I about Tesla a lot. Yes you do. Because they suck. And it's a con man deal and I hate him.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
For multiple. Well, I mean, it's just not gonna work. It's a stock run. He's a stock manipulator. He's not a con man, he's a stock manipulator. Yeah, he's a stock manipulator. He's a PT Barnum promoter. Takes one to no one and I'm telling you, this guy, that's what it is. Yeah. But what he is good at and I do respect him for is his SpaceX program. Oh, no kidding.
J.D. Ryan
Amazing.

But you know, if they could just get those damn rockets to run on electricity. Look at the fundamentals of what we're saying. Elon Musk, Mr. You know, Mr. Wonderful of this day and age is gonna make the electric car. But he on accident winds up getting into a rocket business that burns a lot of fuel. Yeah, like a lot. And that thing's working pretty good.

Hang on. I gotta grab a caller real quick. What's your name again? Will. What? Will. Try Will Troy. Will Troy. Ed. Good morning. In vain. Austin. How are you?
Caller/Guest
Good morning. What's going on, John?
John Clay Wolf
I'll just listen to conspiracy theorists here that dropped by this morning.
Caller/Guest
Yeah. You gotta love them, man.
John Clay Wolf
So what have you got? You've got a 14 FTX or STX?
Caller/Guest
It's STX.
John Clay Wolf
Is it a six cylinder or a eight?
Caller/Guest
It is a six.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And it is a super cabin. No, it's a crook crew, cab or circuit.
Caller/Guest
It's. It's got these second seats, but it's got the smaller door.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. So it's extended can. Damn it. I gotta start this all over again. It's a 14 with 47. It's got a six, it's automatic. It's got alloys, clean Carfax, I don't know, 15, 16, 17. Grand. What's your payoff?
Caller/Guest
My payoff on it is 15. I think it's 15. Five maybe.
John Clay Wolf
Do you want to sell it or do you want to trade it in?
Caller/Guest
I'm actually wanting to sell it because I'm fixing to retire my father in law's.
John Clay Wolf
Give me his cool, do this, load it in to give me the vin, take a couple pictures, take a side shot of it, open the driver door, take a shot from that area where we can see the seats, the carpet, the dash. And really that's the, that's a very important picture because it shows us the equipment level. We can look up in the headliner and see if there's a sunroof, which this one doesn't have. I know because it's stx.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
But for everybody listening that, that when you open the door, the, the picture from the driver's view from carpet to headliner and cover and get the dash in there, that, that answers so many questions. And then the side shot, the, the just a complete side profile and those two pictures, that's all we need. And then you can describe anything else to us. But if you go to givemethevin.com and load that up, the computer system, my bidding tool will give you a bid immediately. But it gives you a tight range. After we see the picture, we'll email you a hard offer. What. We'll pay for it right now.

DJ Prek
Well, somebody did what we've all thought about doing and decided to lay a swift one two on somebody else's kid when they started acting up. And out in Georgia, a man had had enough and grabbed a wild kid and hit him on the hand in the bottom. And I'll tell y' all this. The man was described as smelling like alcohol and slurring his speech. Take that as you will. The 5o came through and arrested him and charged him with obstruction and battery. So what y' all think, man? White, black, Latino or other?
John Clay Wolf
I have questions.
Bobbo
Obstruction?
J.D. Ryan

Different deal.
J.D. Ryan
He's playing Columbo here. Where was it?
John Clay Wolf

Turley
And is it. It was a male that did this.
J.D. Ryan
Yup. I gotta go with white also. I don't see anybody any other race really, you know, getting into other people's business, particularly at Walmart.
Bobbo
Yeah. I've got a line I've. I've perfected over the years. Madam, do you mind if I. Would you like me to beat that child for you?
John Clay Wolf
Really?
Bobbo
I've never.
John Clay Wolf
That's the only line you've got this perfected.
Bobbo
I've never. I've never said it.
John Clay Wolf
When it comes to women. God Almighty. See, we need to work on these lines with you. If you would have said, madam, would you like me to beat that butt for you? You probably would have scored last week. Inside joke never occurred to me.
Turley
Me, I'm gonna go other here because I've seen the other type of race. Maybe Indian. Not the Indian.
John Clay Wolf
They, they.
Turley
They'll spank their kid in a heartbeat, like, no problem. Drag them down.
John Clay Wolf
Like the Pakistani. Yes.
Turley
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Like Ahab, the Arab Indian.
Bobbo
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
So he's going Middle Eastern. He's going dot, Indians in Pakistan.
J.D. Ryan
When I said dotting on feathers, I thought I was stepping over the line. Johnny has to take it there.
John Clay Wolf
Dot, not feathers.
Bobbo
Ethnicity.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't hear that. I like that. That's good. He's not a hater. He's a Texan. He's the accidental racist. Dot, not feathers. Yeah. So you just don't see black guys drunk like that?
J.D. Ryan
No.
John Clay Wolf
White guys get dumber drunk than black guys.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
Bobbo
And they go to Walmart.
John Clay Wolf
And when the black guys are dumb drunk like that, they say, stay in their own circles. True.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And the white guys are the ones that Are out making a mess.
J.D. Ryan
I got to go with you on.
John Clay Wolf
That, so I'm going to go with that. What is it? What's the answer, DJ Foray?
DJ Prek
Well, we got 62 year old Juan Martinez, mein mesin. Grab him and said, this is how we do it down in Mexico, man.
John Clay Wolf
That was all about a segue to Good morning San Antonio. How the hell are y'? All? I hope you're up and wait. Got your breakfast back. Burritos rocking. Already had a shot of Cheech and Chong.
J.D. Ryan
Couldn't help yourself.
John Clay Wolf
Getting her stretched up, warmed up. Yes, I'll take a jalapeno with it. I'm from San Antonio. Are we on in San Antonio yet? Do we start at 8 or 9?

Bobbo
When asked, daddy, can we keep this cute puppy? The answer is always a resounding, not no, but hell no. Once when a stranger took his woman, he stole that man's procedure prosthetic leg. In return, his wife complains that he snores and that's why she sleeps on the couch. He is the world's biggest son of a bitch. Hey, man, I don't always drink beer, but when I do make mine a natty like tall boy.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, buddy. Give me the bin.

J.D. Ryan
Just asking. Just asking because why we haven't identified anybody now you're gonna zero somebody out.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but she's half cut off. Okay, okay. Maybe take two dots and put them over her eyes.
DJ Prek
I'll black bar it, man.
Turley
There you go.
John Clay Wolf
Just put. What's black bar?
Bobbo
You can only see one eye right over their eyes.
Turley
Yeah, just the eyes.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
That's how the FBI does it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Turley
It's good enough for them.
John Clay Wolf
Right? But I don't want to make her look unattractive because she's an attractive woman.
Bobbo
She really is.
John Clay Wolf
That's why I'm so disappointed, Bob. I mean, I wanted to give you something.
J.D. Ryan
There's the cutoff.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, yeah, there it is. Go show that to DJ Dane.
Bobbo
Well, just because she's. She's a great dude.
John Clay Wolf
Do it twice. Do one full shot and one zoomed up like her.
Bobbo
And just because you buy somebody dinner.
John Clay Wolf
You know, not just dinner, like a week's worth of paid dinner.
Bobbo
You better know how it hurts me to say something like this, but perhaps it's not best that we objectify women.
John Clay Wolf
How are we objectifying? I think she's so mad that you didn't bang her.
Bobbo
Oh, you think?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I do. I think your call of duty was there as an Indian maiden was telling her hunter to come in for the kill. And you went down to the river to drink some sake. Okay. Like you're a freaking alcoholic and a pothead and that's why you didn't do it.
Bobbo
Oh, yeah, yeah, because you're so good at this. Like you're. You're just so accomplished.
John Clay Wolf
Well, you know, when we get back after driving home from Houston. Yeah. How was that brains over here? Yes. Locks the truck up.
Bobbo
Running, I think.
John Clay Wolf
Running my house.
Bobbo
I still think that was your button, dude.
John Clay Wolf
Running, Right.
Bobbo
I do or you would have bitched at me for locking the keys in the.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no, no. The reason I at you for locking the keys in the truck is cuz I was home. Yeah, you didn't care.
Bobbo
And it was 30 degrees.
John Clay Wolf
It was 30 degrees. We were in my driveway. My wife had already made. She left to go do her thing. The only thing I was worried about is this big diesel Ford F750 running out of diesel. Cuz it was low and was a near thing. That would have been a problem.
Bobbo
It was a near, near thing.
John Clay Wolf
Was it?
Bobbo
Were you frantic?
John Clay Wolf
I was not frantic.
Bobbo
I got a little frantic.
John Clay Wolf
I was just like, whatever. Cuz I'd already offered for you to stay that night, right? I said, hey, if you want to come in, take a nap, D. I mean, you know, when you've got like a special ed person that, you know, short bus person that can't close a deal, you got to take care of. I mean, hell, he froze to death. You know, you got to watch out for people like this. You got to take care of him. So I invited Bobbo in, offer talking, man. Make sure he's gonna not hurt himself. Yeah, put a little helmet on him. Not a full blown helmet, but like one of those skateboard helmets.
Bobbo
So now the.
John Clay Wolf
Just so he wouldn't bump into anything in the house.
Bobbo
Intelligence is what, now you're saying I'm unintelligent?
John Clay Wolf
No, I'm saying you're a little touched, huh?
Bobbo
Not damn unlucky.
J.D. Ryan
How was the ride back? Was it great?
John Clay Wolf
It was fun. Oh, good. It was very good. And Bob was a very good driver of commercial vehicles. Like he's done it before. Have you ever worked for a tree service or. Or like the. Or Texas electric? Yeah.

Bobbo
Thank you very much.
J.D. Ryan
How'd you do it?
John Clay Wolf
He went and found.
Bobbo
Because I'm a badass.
John Clay Wolf
I'll explain it. It's 30 degrees outside. This. This F750 is locked up in my driveway, running for an hour, 45 minutes.
Bobbo
Long time and six weeks.
John Clay Wolf
And we're going through all types. But. But when I shut the door.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I don't even know why Babo got out of the truck. When you pull up somebody's house, you just. You.
Bobbo
I was gonna help you.
John Clay Wolf
Let me finish. Just. Just shut up. Just hang on. Hang on. Yeah, I remember thinking when he opened the door to get out, I'm like, what are you doing if you need to pee on a shit? But I. You just limit. Limit the possibility. Possibilities for problems.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
So I get out of the. He should say, hey, man, see you later. I go back there and spot him backing up to make sure nothing happens. But he has to get out of the truck, shut the door. Hey, good to see you.
Bobbo
You know.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, you need anything? No, I. I've got a bag. I got one bag. I have a briefcase. That's it. Get back in the truck. Get out of here. But in doing so, he shuts the door to a running semi and it's locked. He bumped the lock on the way out.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I got you.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Hit it on the door.
Bobbo
Hey, man, how many times do you have to open the gate?
John Clay Wolf
Right? What the hell's wrong with you? Bobbo, what happened?
Bobbo
Okay. God, we're almost out of diesel, man. This thing is empty as empty can. Empty, Right?
John Clay Wolf
And I live in the country, so.
Bobbo
I'm thinking I gotta go directly to the first gas station.
John Clay Wolf
Don't tell me you went down there and turned it off like a moron.
Bobbo
No, no, not at all. I got to the gate and I'm thinking this would be a good time to set my navigation. So while I'm setting the navigation, John opens the gate. John's gate opens and then it closes. I was just about to call you. I was just about to call you. And the gate opened again. So I thought, okay, got him. He can see me.
John Clay Wolf
So anyway, we. We. I get some dykes, you know? No. GLTB or whatever.
Bobbo
It's very nice girl.
John Clay Wolf
I got some dykes. Yes. Papa says, very nice girls.
Bobbo
I thought they were.
John Clay Wolf
I got some cutting dikes.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I was trying to. We were Trying to come up with something to slide in the top of the door like a Slim Jim. My wife has an air out rack for outdoor laundry.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Like, you know, go to Walmart, Target, probably, and, and, and get one of those flip out tables that is full of those lined bars that you air out laundry, you know. So I come home from a hard day's work and pull up to the back of the home and there's 20 of these racks in the driveway with laundry all over. This went on for about 90 days. These cycles of oddity run in 90 days in course, but at the end of it, you have a lot of racks. But when you have a bus barn for a prevost that your grandfather used to have that's connected your house, then you have a great storage place for all these odd things.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
So Bobbo and I are digging through the bus barn and we find one of these racks. He found one of the racks. He said, this will work. So we grabbed a dike, said, hey, gal, come over here, help me, help me chew this off. And he clipped the. One of the little metal rods off and went over to the truck and used it, Penetrated it and opened the damn lock finally.
Bobbo
And if you find a piece of metal, yeah, a long piece of metal flat, a little less, you know, bendable than a clothes hanger, but still rigid and 3ft long. If you find something better to punch the unlock button inside a locked car, I would like to see it, man, because this thing is perfect. 30 seconds after we got that thing off, we're in.
John Clay Wolf
So what is a little embarrassing is my wife, God bless her soul, gave us a tennis ball on the way out because she, she had somewhere that had to go. Sit here, take a tennis ball. And I. Because my door, I didn't shut my door all the way. It was just to the catch. Okay, so I have the gap in the top, right?
Bobbo
Look at tiny gap.
John Clay Wolf
I thought that you put the tennis ball on the top of the gap to jam it open better so you can get a stick in there.
J.D. Ryan
Makes sense.
John Clay Wolf
She thought that I knew what to do with it.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I know what she's gonna say.
John Clay Wolf
Chew a hole in it. Get a dike to chew a hole in it.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And then use it as a suck or push it as a. If you look this up on YouTube.
J.D. Ryan
You push it and the air.
John Clay Wolf
Push it in the air opens the damn lock tumbler. What? Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Yep. But look it up, look it up on YouTube.
John Clay Wolf
She laughed at me. She said, I thought you knew what to do. I Finally know something more about cars than you. But you know, one thing I do know how to do, honey, is I do know how to air up a flat tire whenever the tires are running low and the lights saying, air me up. You know, if you air it up and then they don't, you know, break, and then you don't call me saying, hey, I'm. I'm broke.
J.D. Ryan
You're in the vehicle for four or five hours and now you're out of fuel in the middle of nowhere. You pass about 900 gas stations between here and Houston. Why didn't you stop?
John Clay Wolf
No, I slapped him at 20 and gave him 10 more for good measure. No, gave him 20 more for good measure. Say, as soon as we're. You leave here, stop and get some diesel, Bucky. Because I was ready. Now, we were way closer than that. The light came on not far from the house. I mean, when the light comes on on the dash, how much, how much do you have? Well, every car is different, you know, I mean, but you have this gauge.
J.D. Ryan
And you know it for hours it's empty.
John Clay Wolf
But if you know your car, you know what to do. But if you're in an F750 Kodiak or not Kodiak Caterpillar engine semi. Yeah. Then you know, you're kind of gambling. Do we have five miles or do we have 55 miles? It was cold. It was time to get home. That's why you gamble. Yeah.
Bobbo
Station that didn't sell diesel. And then I went up here to homies or they haven't put diesel in it.
John Clay Wolf
I've noticed a. A difference between like dot Indians that don't sell deep. Like black stores don't like black run gas stations don't have diesel. And the Indian run gas stations do. What the hell is that all about, man?
J.D. Ryan
I don't even want to get close.
John Clay Wolf
Do you think that, like it's got something to do with the desert?
Bobbo
I'm frightened.
John Clay Wolf
No, do you think it has something to do with their upbringing?
Bobbo
No, I think it has to do with supply and demand more than anything.
J.D. Ryan
Thank you, Baba.
John Clay Wolf
You know, and when I go to the black, the ghetto convenience store, I can't get skull fine cut winter green.
Bobbo
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobbo
What's that?
John Clay Wolf
And then this Indian run, you know, they get these franchises. You can call it Texaco, but it's not. No, it's la la la la la la la la. And they don't have my twist off 18 ounce Miller Light bottles. They've got everything under the sun of Miller Light. But they don't have that.
Bobbo
Oh, they got every kind of hunting knife and faux jewelry you'd ever want to buy.
John Clay Wolf
I would like to see the order catalog for the convenience store owner.
Bobbo
You couldn't read it.
John Clay Wolf
And I'd like to understand, you know, when they're doing inventory and like, you know, doing selection. This sells good. This does. Hey, that looks good. Hey, how about a dream weaver? Hey, how about some. Some. How about some jewelry with. With. How about some condoms? How about some big league chew? How about not? There's a lot of decisions to be made in a convenience store. My name is John Claywolf. We'll be back in just a minute. Go sell us your cart. GiveMeTheVin.com the system will give you a number immediately. If I don't beat your carmax number.

Nissan Altima, John.
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
So tell me about the day that you bought your Altima. Was it a proud day? Did you. Did you feel like you made it? Did you feel like you made it like everything? When your mom told you you were special all those years, you were like, now she. She was right. She was on to something.
Caller/Guest
No, not exactly.
John Clay Wolf
13 ultima SV with 65 roof and navigation, correct?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What are you going to get?
Caller/Guest
I'm just trying to get. I'm just trying to pay it off.
Turley
Can I tell you something, John.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Turley
There's a 90 chance that he's buried in this.
John Clay Wolf
No, He's. It's not 90. It's 97.8. He's tanked in this thing.
Turley
Like Sherman, all Ultima Maxima.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, they're Hyundai and Kia.
Bobbo
Anything.
John Clay Wolf
Nissan, mass produced, low payment, slam it, slap it out the door, bait them, you know, bait and switch advertising. They're all buried.
Turley
Not his fault.
John Clay Wolf
But here's something I'm noticing about John. He has a 13, which is now. How many years old is that? Five. Right. And it has 65,000 miles on it. And it has a sunroof. So he went for the sunroof and he. So he's not a big commuter. How long have you had it, John?
Caller/Guest
Two years.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. You've got a better Altima than most people named John do. So I know that's weird, but I have a feeling that you're not upside down. What is your payoff, right at 16, dude, you're tanked out the ass. You're so screwed. You need to go like drive it off a bridge and jump out of it before it goes 800. What's the phone? I was completely wrong on everything I said. 817-377-0827 is the calling number. Go to John Clay Wolf show and you can see Bobbo's late date and our phone number, in case you can't remember because our phone number screwed up.

And now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by gimmetheven.com.
John Clay Wolf
This is funny, Turley. So the okay on. On the John Clay Wolf show Facebook page, we have a picture of the crowd at the party last week for a listener party. And the galaxy that Bobbo could not seal the deal with right. Is standing about three next to him. And DJ Pre k circled her and pointed an arrow at her. But he put, like, the little black thing over her eyes like the COVID of. Of Dirty Deeds Done. Dirt Cheap album. And Turley thought it'd be funny to play that. That's good.
J.D. Ryan
Nice.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's exactly. So if you want to see Bobbo's kill that did get killed, the deer, that. That is still bleeding, running through the woods with a half an arrow hanging out of it.
J.D. Ryan
Yet in that same picture, Bobble's got this lovely, like, I just killed it. Smug.
John Clay Wolf
Look, see, here's what you got to understand about the listener party last week. There was a guy. Yeah, I think he's a doctor. I think he's Indian. Like Dot, not feather.
J.D. Ryan
Gotcha.
John Clay Wolf
And casino, not convenience. And. No, that'd be opposite. I'm sorry. No, opposite.
Caller/Guest
Couldn't.
John Clay Wolf
But. But he was a. He's a nice guy. And. And he just trucked on in there. And he. He. He brought two strippers. He just brought two strippers. That's really.
Turley
Well, no, see, JD Told me that was his daughter.
J.D. Ryan
You. Somebody told me that was his daughters he brought with him.
John Clay Wolf
Well, they were strippers, dude.
J.D. Ryan
I'm not telling you. So maybe his daughter.
John Clay Wolf
I thought you. I thought. You're old.
Bobbo
Wait a minute. Sometimes.
John Clay Wolf
Melania.
Bobbo
Melania, sometimes daughters are strippers.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
Bobbo
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
They're all somebody's daughter.
Bobbo
I happen to have a daughter who's an exotic dancer. And she's damn good. They say. They say. And there's nothing wrong with that. I'm just glad that she's working in the arts.
J.D. Ryan
She's an entertainer.
John Clay Wolf
He brought two strippers, and he said to me.
J.D. Ryan
What?
John Clay Wolf
He said, you have been entertaining me on Saturdays for years longer than I can remember, and it's my turn to entertain you.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Perfect.
John Clay Wolf
So he brought two strippers to our party.
J.D. Ryan
It worked.
John Clay Wolf
It really did spice things up.
J.D. Ryan
It really did.
John Clay Wolf
The whole room kind of perked. It just perked. It was a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful donation to the cause. It's like going up on the mountain and sacrificing a lamb.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, we kind of went. Why didn't we think of that?
John Clay Wolf
Bates. Good morning. You're on the air.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, I was calling about the tennis ball thing. Yeah, that is. That is fake news.
John Clay Wolf
My wife said it worked because she did it on a Suburban with her friend the other day.
Caller/Guest
She's a filthy liar.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, you know what? We'll. We'll do it at the house. We'll go through the tennis ball challenge.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, I'm just saying, like that to run with before, you know, it they'll be running from present.
Bobbo
See, I would say I would do it, but it would never work for me.
John Clay Wolf
What?
Bobbo
Well, because I just can't close that deal.
John Clay Wolf
Are you married, Bates?
Caller/Guest
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
How many times?
Caller/Guest
Just once.
John Clay Wolf
How long so far?
Caller/Guest
Oh, it's been at least a year now.
John Clay Wolf
Is that really all it's been?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I have a feeling that, like, she makes you the sandwich.
Caller/Guest
Well, it's not going to make itself.
John Clay Wolf
Oh.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I see. I just saw what happens. Okay. It's on Facebook and there is a guy who takes those tennis ball, puts it up against the lock.
John Clay Wolf
You cut a hole in it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And you push it up against the lock, create suction and push. It forces air into the lock and it rolls. The tumbler is the concept.
J.D. Ryan
That's not what happens. What happens is somebody standing next that car's unlocked. Somebody's standing next to it with a remote control. And the same time she pushes it, they unlock it. It's the videos right here.
Bobbo
I'm looking at it.
John Clay Wolf
We'll just try. She's a filthy liar.
Bobbo
We did that for 10 years.
John Clay Wolf
You know, she normally calls me that. And, I mean, it was nice for Bates to stand up for me this.
Bobbo
Morning because we tried and tried. John tried to squeeze it small enough to get in there. I tried to squeeze it small enough to get in there, would not go in.
John Clay Wolf
Bates, how old are you?
Caller/Guest
I'm 29.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, you've been married for a year. And how old is she?
Caller/Guest
20. Oh, she just turned 30.
John Clay Wolf
And what is her nationality? White, black, Latino or other.
Caller/Guest
Oh, well, why? That's why we know how to not break into cars.
John Clay Wolf
He's not a hater. He's the accidental racist. We lost Bates.
Turley
I think your wife was playing a joke on you, John. I really do.
John Clay Wolf
I think she might believe it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Bobbo
Seen the video?
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no.
Turley
She's watching.
John Clay Wolf
Her and her trainer gal, they're friends and they locked out of the Suburban and she claims that it unlocked it. Babe, if you're listening and would like to defend yourself and you could swear up and down that this is a true statement, then call in. Well, you don't know the number. Anybody can call in because our number changed today because it's broken. So we have a different number. 817-377-0827.

J.D. Ryan
And two strippers.
John Clay Wolf
But. And they were like Persian.

John Clay Wolf
However, I, I did notice that our core listening audience was just a good old white oil field worker.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
Bobbo
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Did you catch that vibe too?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, absolutely. That's the majority of it.
John Clay Wolf
They get that from Turl. You know, he's the construction guy of the, of the group.
Turley
I thought it was Hebrew or something.
J.D. Ryan
Now the rodeo guy was cool man.
John Clay Wolf

Yeah.
J.D. Ryan

John Clay Wolf
Oh, that's great. It's a hundred thousand mile, ten year old Ultima man. It's the most overly mass produced by basic car in the world. It's the ford Taurus of 1996 there. I mean it's just, it's just bubble gum.
J.D. Ryan
Meet him in a dark parking lot.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Here's the dope, here's the gun, here's the bullet. You're dead.
Turley

John Clay Wolf
Running ad, don't get stabbed. Good luck.
Turley
You hear it all the time. Oh, I'm going to sell it on Craigslist. Well, no, we'll just say run it.
John Clay Wolf
Ad, don't get stabbed. There was A kid that got killed last week on buying a iPhone on it happened on a 5 mile app. Same kind of thing as Craigslist.
J.D. Ryan
Thanks for bringing the show to a screaming halt.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I mean, isn't that.
J.D. Ryan
I know it happens. Unfortunately, it does happen all the time, people. It's just. In fact, a lot of cities have set up a spot in, in the police department parking lot for these kind of transactions actions for that reason.
John Clay Wolf
Ah, but with give me the vin, you don't need to do that. You just go safely from your iPhone, loaded into givemetheven.com and safe.
J.D. Ryan
You can do it in your underwear.
John Clay Wolf
You can do it from your underwear. However.
J.D. Ryan
Got a funny story about that, but go ahead, however.
John Clay Wolf
And they're safe. But we got robbed. Huh? We got robbed. I got robbed. What? What happened? I got robbed by one of my own drivers. What? What?
J.D. Ryan
When was this?
John Clay Wolf
This past week.
J.D. Ryan
Are you gonna tell us?
John Clay Wolf
You know what I want to do? I want to get him on the phone. Let's see, before I tell this story.
J.D. Ryan
He'S gonna take your call.
John Clay Wolf
You know, this is not the brightest guy. Why is it not the place?
J.D. Ryan
Why did he steal? Can we even say that? Allegedly.
John Clay Wolf
Allegedly.
Turley
There ain't no ledge about it.
J.D. Ryan
We're on the radio. I'm gonna go ahead and say, okay.
John Clay Wolf
I've already waived my right per my agreement with the guy of prosecution.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
So he, I set him free. Just like sting. Free, free. Set them free, free, free.
J.D. Ryan
You have Michael McDonald. Sweet freedom.
Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And so, so he's got nothing to lose. And actually I paid him the wages that I owed him for two days. Damn. Yeah, really, I've done nothing. I just don't paid him. I just don't want any heat after. Just like Bob, I bought his date dinner, bought her a hundred dollar lobster so I'd have a good story.
Bobbo
Well, she wasn't my date at all.
John Clay Wolf
This guy, this guy, you know, he's giving us a good story. So really what I'm saying, if he's listening, we're gonna call you and we want to get you on air. And so that I get my money's worth out of this deal, we're gonna talk about it with our listeners.
J.D. Ryan
Kind of paid for it.
John Clay Wolf
I've already paid for it. I paid you your. I paid you got caught stealing and you wouldn't admit it.
J.D. Ryan
Well, no one's gonna.
John Clay Wolf
And then I put a post on your Facebook page and I put a reward on your ass to tell all your friends and family, bring me my stuff back. That this guy stole. And I'll pay you 500.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Damn.
John Clay Wolf
How did I miss this?
Bobbo
All he needs is a confessor right now.
John Clay Wolf
And the stuff showed up the next.
J.D. Ryan
Morning just out of the blue, like on your doorstep.
John Clay Wolf
A very close relative. There's so much here. We will get into it, but I'd like to call him. I want to hear. I want to have a serious, intense, heartfelt psychological moment with. With him on the air. All right, I'm not gonna get mad. No, apparently you're not. But I want to hear him explain to me you paid the guy why he felt that it was worth the risk of losing a good job for he and his wife to steal a set of wheels off of a Chevy truck.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. That's what happened. I didn't know what you stole.
John Clay Wolf
And once he was caught, why he didn't just scream and cry for mercy and say, I didn't think that anybody would care. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Please don't fire me. Because actually, if he'd have done that, if he'd have been really cool like.
J.D. Ryan
That, you might have.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Just struck. Struck it off his dumbass. I could have. Weirdly, I. I could have struck it off his dumbass if he'd have handled it right. Yeah. But he rode the lie, and he told Uncle Roy, no, no, no. And we had to get the customer involved. Oh. And then we got video and pictures of the car before and after from the customer. It's all on the John Clay Wolf show Facebook page.
Turley
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
If you go there, you can see. You see the whole story in photos before now. And that's what I put those stories. I put the story of photos on his Facebook page.
J.D. Ryan
Can you explain the opposite, how this happened, though? There was a car we're buying that had a nice set of wheels.
John Clay Wolf
22 inch factory GMCs, expensive as hell.
J.D. Ryan
And at some point, they're gone. There's another set of wheels into place. Am I getting.
John Clay Wolf
When it got to our recon facility, it showed up with black wheels.
J.D. Ryan
There's the.
Turley
Okay, spare tires, basically.
John Clay Wolf
And he recently purchased a 2014 truck with the same bolt pattern that had. Okay, black wheels.
J.D. Ryan
Now I follow you.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. So when we were looking through, like, oh, my God, where are the wheels for the gorgeous truck?
J.D. Ryan
We swapped.
John Clay Wolf
Turley called the driver and said, where are the wheels?
Turley
I called Uncle Roy first to find out who the driver was.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And when you heard who the driver was, did you know right then?
Turley
I had a really good. Really good suspicion of what happened.
J.D. Ryan
That's the only person in line so far that could have done it.
Turley
Second call was to the owner, not to the customer. Not to blame him. Just to find out, hey, when that truck left, it had chrome wheels on it, right?
John Clay Wolf
And he said, absolutely. To the extent. Do you mean to show you. He took a video from his doorway of the car pulling out. And he said, bye, bye, truck. I'm gonna miss you. And you see our driver driving it with the chrome wheels. And you see his wife getting in our. Give me the VIN delivery car. And they drive away. And then you see it pull up on surveillance camera four hours later on a 45 minute drive with black wheels on it.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, man. What are the odds that the guy would have a video of him driving away with it?
John Clay Wolf
That's. And we got a picture of it. But they're so damn stupid. They took the picture of the customer, the guy that sold it to us with the I love. Give me the VIN sign next to the truck that has show the wheels. And they took it. They took it. They took the picture. JD this gets better and better. These people were making more money than you'd think.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, God, yes. They're all like a video of it actually rolling the wheels away from the.
John Clay Wolf
Vehicle between the two. That's all you're missing. And then, boy. And then he started getting on Roy's ass and said, I know where you live. When Roy fired him.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, we're gonna.
John Clay Wolf
We're gonna start bowing up on Roy like, I know where you live.
Bobbo
Well, that metasamphetamine really will make you die stone dumb.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, that's great.
John Clay Wolf
That's so great.
J.D. Ryan
I know where you live. Well, I know where you're about to live.
John Clay Wolf
I just said, man, we're going to. It's going to be so easy. Bring me my wheels and tires back or get arrested. You've already lost your job and your wife's job.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, they both worked here.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I didn't know that.
John Clay Wolf
You're going to get arrested. Give me my wheels and tires back. You ignore me. So then I posted on his Facebook page.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Dear friends and family of. Of whoever. Of his name, whomever. Here's a. I just wrote the story in pictures. Here's what 500 reward. His dad was smart enough to see it. He knew his son was a sorry bastard. God. Anyone else? Give me the damn wheels. His dad brought him over and didn't say nothing about the 500.
Turley
I was surprised, actually. I thought that was going to be the question asked. So where's my 500.
John Clay Wolf
And that's when we were going to start whipping in the race. That was the plan. That was the plan. When he asked for the 500, Turley was going to come over him with a potato sack. And I was going to go to beating the hell out of him with. With my fist.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, tennis ball.
John Clay Wolf
That's what we were going to do. And then throw him over the rail. Cuz Turley tried to throw him over the rail two years ago when he got mad at him and we had to let him go. And I took up for the guy and brought him back and told Turley he was out of line. So this is twice now that Turley's wanted to kill people over stolen wheels. And I've brought them back into the fray. And Turley was right. Izzy. Yeah, same thing. Body shop. Take a sequoia over there. Turley's friends. And they stole the wheels and put other wheels on it thinking nobody would notice. God, don't be a dumbass. Is the. Is the headline of today's show.
J.D. Ryan
How do I hear it?
John Clay Wolf
My name is John Clay Wolf and I buy cars radio. Go to. Give me the vin.com wheels or no wheels.
Caller/Guest
You guys make me laugh every Saturday morning, man. It's awesome. Love listening to y'.
John Clay Wolf
All.
Podbean Announcer
And now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by gimmethevin.com.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, Steve in Shreveport, you there?
Caller/Guest
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
Listen man, I've got Michael McDonald on line one and. And the fellow on the wheel story on line two. And I've got you in Shreveport, Louisiana with a 01 Subaru with 200,000 miles on it.
Caller/Guest
The engine only has 150.
John Clay Wolf
I understand, but I'm still gonna hang up on you, okay? Because it's just not worth it. The material is better than. Oh, we lost him. See? I see. Chris, you stupid bastard. Call me with some junk ass super from Louisiana and you just wrecked my whole segment. Cause I'm jacking with junk ass cars. Go drive it off a bridge. Yeah. Holy cow, man. Get him back on the phone. DJ hell yes.
Bobbo
Drum it up.
John Clay Wolf
01 Subaru with 216. Poor guy.
Turley
He had no idea what he was.
John Clay Wolf
But I had the guy that had the wheels. He was on hold.
J.D. Ryan
You should have gone right to him.
John Clay Wolf
I know. I was setting it up. I got it.
J.D. Ryan
Boy, it really worked.
Bobbo
Well, timing, timing, everything.
John Clay Wolf
If anybody knows it's you, just call him back.
J.D. Ryan
It's okay.
John Clay Wolf
He's not gonna answer. Well, here's what you need to tell him. I hate to make a Threat. I hate to make a threat, but if he doesn't call in the show and talk about this on the air, then I lied about having him arrested. I lied. I'm gonna have him arrested. I'm gonna get my miles out of this, and I'm going to share this with the listeners. And we're going to break him of this stupid petty theft crap publicly or I'm going to have him arrested. So you better tell him. And I'm rowdy. If you're listening, I'm going to be nice. But you need to call in and we need to talk about the numbers 817-377-0827. And just like you told Uncle Roy, I know where you live. Hey, Uncle Roy. Good morning. How are you?
Caller/Guest
Come on in, sir.
John Clay Wolf
So what part of this story am I missing?
Caller/Guest
You pretty well got it all. I think you know just what he told me.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
Me look kind of. Kind of foolish.
John Clay Wolf
How did he make you look foolish?
Caller/Guest
Because when Curly got a hold to the deal, he calls me and asked me who picked the cop. And I tell him. And I called Ryder and asked him what kind of wheel was on the car. And he said black. So I called Curly back. I'm standing up for route. I turn Curly, the truck had black wheels on it. Curly caused the customer, jumping the customer. So the customer sends him a video.
John Clay Wolf
He wasn't jumping him. He wasn't jumping him.
Caller/Guest
And Curtis sent me the video, and that made me look real stupid.
John Clay Wolf
We didn't make you look stupid. You just got lied to.
Caller/Guest
But I went out and lay him for Rowdy.
John Clay Wolf
Did he really threaten to come to your house?
Caller/Guest
No. No, I don't think so.
John Clay Wolf
What did he. How did he threaten you, huh? Well, tell me how. Was it an underhanded threat?
Caller/Guest
No.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, hang on, hang on, hang on. We want to hear all sides of the story. We've got Rowdy online to. Hold on a second. Hold on five. Line five. Line five. Hold on. I don't have a line five. There's nobody on five.
Turley
Four on your.
John Clay Wolf
God bless America. I don't have a four. It goes from one, two, three, and jumps to five. Why don't you label it Rowdy and I'll see it.
Turley
He just hung up again.
John Clay Wolf
He hung up again. Okay, it was there. Okay, He's a little skittish. We've had. We've had Rowdy on the. On hold twice now, and he's thought about it and run off.
J.D. Ryan
Call back. It's not gonna be bad.
John Clay Wolf
I haven't given Your last name out. And I don't plan to do it.
Bobbo
See, the propensity for petty crime. 1, 2. Poor, poor planning of said crime. 2, 3. Short, short, short, short, short attention span. Yeah, that spells methamphetamine.
John Clay Wolf
So. So, Roy, something illegal going on. So, Roy, they. They. They took my truck and they stole my wheels. And then they put down with the wheels that were on the truck. The wheels that were on his personal truck. Did he swap them?
Caller/Guest
Well, he had to get him from somewhere. I don't know where he got him from, but he had to get him somewhere.
John Clay Wolf
But does he drive a truck with that bolt pattern?
Caller/Guest
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. Okay, so when you taking these, what did he say?
Caller/Guest
Well, he told me. He said, Mr. Roy, you know, I wouldn't lie to you. I wouldn't steal no will. I need my job. I just went, bought a truck. He said, I need my job bad. I said, I don't know whether you would lie to me or not, but I know not lying. This video is not lost.
John Clay Wolf
Which video? The one the customer took or the one at the recon facility or the pictures or. I mean, we had so much proof, it was sick.
J.D. Ryan
Like NASA.
Caller/Guest
The one that the customer took and sent throughout. It sent that early?
John Clay Wolf
So when. How did. Okay, you see, you know, I took all this. I put it on his Facebook, put a $500 reward on it for his friends. Okay, So I took the videos and the pictures. I posted it on his Facebook page and said, dear friends of and family of Rowdy, offer $500 reward, right? For you. For you. Label it for you to what? Mike, I've got 1, 2, 3, and 5 on my deal. Okay, what number? D.J. i can't see.
J.D. Ryan
He's saying five.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, five. Okay, hold on, hold on. Roy. Rowdy, you there?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir, this is him.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, tell me we're on the air. Tell me what happened. Tell me what happened about the wheels. I want to hear your side of the story.
Caller/Guest
I went. I went and collected the wheels. The im. The message where I was going to jail and all that. I couldn't. I think I can't do that, right? So I went and done. I guess done. Yalls job. Went collected. Went and collected the wheels and the cars keep me from going to the.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, but. But why is the video that the customer, the seller took of his truck leaving and your wife getting in my car and y' all driving off? It had the wheels on it?
Caller/Guest
Yeah, that was a test drive. If you'll notice. You'll look if you'll blow Your push, your phone. Blow it up. Look at the Lincoln. I'm sitting in the Lincoln waiting for her to come back for the test drive.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, then what about. What about the picture at the end in the auction, Writings on the window, and the guy's holding the I love. Give me the VIN sign and y' all are leaving. You've already paid him, and the chrome wheels are still on it.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
How could that happen?
Caller/Guest
You tell me. The man said he wanted to keep. The man said he wanted to keep his wheels, and I guess that's what he did. I mean, but when. Whenever it is. We just done our job, we picked.
John Clay Wolf
It up and I pay you for your job. Between you and your wife, I pay you. I pay you well.
Caller/Guest
Him on my phone, the IM and the text message that you wrote me. And I told him he's gonna have to come clean or my ass is gonna be in jail.
J.D. Ryan
So he changed the wheel in front of you, is what you're saying.
Caller/Guest
I didn't have anything to do with it. If he wanted to keep the tires and wheels, he should have called y' all and contacted y' all and made a deal with y' all on it that we just done our job.
John Clay Wolf
So he. He whipped out the pit crew, and they jacked this thing up and swap wheels right there in front of you?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
How long did it take, sir?
Caller/Guest
Well, then while we were doing the. While we were doing the paperwork, if you'll pull up on that one. One picture, you can see. You can see a shadow on the other side. You can see a shadow on other side where they was working on.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, then the drive. The drive.
Caller/Guest
Pull that picture up.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
Caller/Guest
And look at that shadow on there and see that shadow on other side.
John Clay Wolf
The drive from Mansfield to Dallas is 45 minutes, but the time from when you left in his video time to when you got to Dallas was four hours later.
Caller/Guest
No way. No four hours.
John Clay Wolf
Well, how long was it?
Caller/Guest
No way. We got in traffic right there on 360, but there wouldn't. It ain't been no four hours.
John Clay Wolf
How long was it? Because you got to know. It's all time stamp, man. I'm wanting to believe you. I'm wanting to believe you.
Caller/Guest
It was. It was. It was not. It was not no four hours. Where I screwed up on my deal and I told the wife where I screwed up on my deal is when all that plate, all that stuff took place, I should have took it on my own to step there and call you or. Either that or Take a stuff. Take a picture and call you and let. Let Roy know is what I should have done to cover my.
John Clay Wolf
Have you recently purchased a new truck?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir. Got a new truck.
John Clay Wolf
Does the bolt pattern on that truck match your truck?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir. Chevrolet, six lugs. That's all Chevrolet's coming out with now. Six lugs.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And did you have black wheels on your truck?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir, my older truck. I still got them.
John Clay Wolf
No, but the new truck.
Caller/Guest
No, the new trucks are born. So come on it. Okay, yeah, I got. I got four, but I got four mud grip on.
John Clay Wolf
But you have your old black wheels still on from your old truck, right? It just looks so here's what I know you worked for us for a long time and actually, if you add up you and your wife's pay, it's pretty damn good. It's not great, but it's pretty good.
Caller/Guest
That's why I say I ain't had nothing, but I haven't had nothing, you know, but fun working for you guys. It's good. It's the easiest job you could ever have, right? You know, besides the pay, but I mean, far as the. That's the easiest job a man can ever have.
John Clay Wolf
And you so.
Givemethevin.com Announcer
But you.
John Clay Wolf
One reason we like you is when you're inspecting the cars and picking them up at customers houses, if there's a quack windshield, if there's a dent on the fender, if there's a dent in the bumper, guess who gets the call? The manager gets the call. Rowdy calls in and says, hey, on the condition report, it doesn't say anything about this dent on the fender. On the condition report doesn't say anything about this cracked winch, little stuff. Not $3,000 worth of wheels. So what made you in that one weird moment say, you know what? I'm not going to call this in.
Caller/Guest
Because the man said he talked to Charlie and told Charlie that it wasn't giving enough for the truck, that he was wanting to take his tires and wheels off. And Charlie told him it is what it is. That was all y' all was going to give for.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, hang on just a second. Hang on. Ready? Uncle Roy, you there?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Did you hear all that?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
What is your comment?
Caller/Guest
Well, I think he should have called me. Everything else he called me about it and I. I can't understand why he let the guy take the wheels off and didn't call me.
John Clay Wolf
Do you believe him?
Caller/Guest
I believe the video. The reason I believe the video because I can hear the link and crank up when they left.
John Clay Wolf
That's right, that's the part. Hang on, let me. Hang on a second. Hang on. Hey, Rowdy. Yes, sir, he does make a good point. And he showed me that when the truck pulled out of the customer's driveway, the Lincoln, which is our delivery car, started up. And you hear it on the tape. Why would y' all start the Lincoln up if you were just going on a test drive in the Chevy?
Caller/Guest
That I don't know. I don't know. I don't recall the Lincoln ever firing up.
John Clay Wolf
Hang on, hang on, hang on. Roy. Yeah, he doesn't know why he started the Lincoln.
Caller/Guest
He started. He was leaving because I could hear on the video when the customer saying, bye bye.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, Turley, you've talked to the customer.
Turley
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Pretty good guy. Listens to the ticket. Knows you from the tickets. Yeah, he's a real guy.
Turley
Yes, big, big. Yes. Big fan of. Of I guess myself, apparently.
John Clay Wolf
Because he realized back when Charlie's producer shows on the ticket, okay, normal guy said, I mean, is there anything, Is there any part of this you believe?
Turley
The only thing I believe is that there is actually a person named Rowdy on the phone.
John Clay Wolf
That is it. Okay, so you don't believe it?
Turley
Not a damn thing.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, hang on just a second. Hang on.
J.D. Ryan
It's a good story.
John Clay Wolf
Hang on. Mike and Arlington, good morning.
Caller/Guest
Hey, you want me to whoop that dude?
John Clay Wolf
Hang on just a second. Let me ask Rowdy. Hold on, hold on, hold on a second. Hey, Rowdy. Mike in Arlington wants to fight.
Caller/Guest
Ask him, ask him. Ask him how big old fella is he?
John Clay Wolf
Hang on just a second. Mike and Arlington, how big of a fellow are you?
Caller/Guest
I don't know. Just how big a boy are you? Stop listening to trucker tapes and pay attention to the wheels. Stay out of the Circle K.
John Clay Wolf
Mike. What do you think?
Caller/Guest
Yeah, you know what? Here's the sad deal. I bet Rowdy could close the deal with a lot lizard a lot quicker than Bobo.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so, Mike, is there any way that. What should I do? I've got my wheels. Hang on. Let me tell you. I've got my wheels back. I've got my tires back.
Caller/Guest
Oh, you got them back.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. See, that's the part that we haven't gotten to yet is the next morning. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Hey, Rowdy. Rowdy. Who brought the wheels and tires back to us? Thank you, by the way.
Caller/Guest
It was my father in law. Bring them back.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, hang on.
Caller/Guest
I had a doctor's appointment. He dropped me off and I called Roy.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
That I went and recovered the wheels. You ought to seen me. Had to strain and lift them, put them in the truck. Had to unrestrain the, lift them and get them out of the truck and put them in the house and sit in there and babysit them. And then had to get out the next morning, load them down.
John Clay Wolf
They're $3,000. They're worth more money than the O1 Subaru from Shreveport a moment ago. Hang on a second. So, Mike. What, What, What? What should I. You sound like a man of good reason.
Caller/Guest
What house is that? House on wheels. Does it have a tongue on the front of it?
John Clay Wolf
Yes, it does.
Caller/Guest
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
It's in Kennedale, Texas.
Caller/Guest
Here's the deal. He. He has his father in law that brought him back, wants him to support his daughter and don't want him to lose his job. Okay, that's, that's.
John Clay Wolf
Did you catch the part where I put this?
Bobbo
What?
John Clay Wolf
Did you catch the part where I put all the videos and the pictures on Facebook?
Caller/Guest
No, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Hang on, hang on. His Facebook page. So I said, reward $500. Friends of Rowdy, please get me my wheels back so we won't have to have him arrested. Here's the proof that he accidentally stole them.
Caller/Guest
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And then the next morning, his father in law brought him in. Thank him. So what should I do? I need. I need you to tell me what to do.
Caller/Guest
How good looking is this old lady?
John Clay Wolf
Hang on. Just say no. I already know the answer to that. No, that won't work. That's not good. Trade.
Caller/Guest
Probation department. And if he screws up again.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, you think so? You think I should press it?
Caller/Guest
Call Rush Limbaugh. Probably talk to Donald Trump about this already.
John Clay Wolf
Actually, that's what we're going to do. We're going to have Rush Limbaugh. And he's on the ISD on. It's about time for his segment. We're going to have him come on in a minute. We're going to get to the bottom.
Caller/Guest
Of this and do not let him buy an AR15.
John Clay Wolf
Okay? Thank you, Michael. From our own tenant, Rowdy. We're going to cut you loose. We're going to keep going. Thank you for calling in. All right, I'm out of time. I got to go to break. And thanks for getting our wheels back, man. Okay.
Caller/Guest
You talking to me, John?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Thanks for getting the wheels back. I appreciate it. Roy, do you have. Are y' all all over picking up cars from getting the van today?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
All right. Keep trucking, homes. I, I enjoyed, I enjoyed the conversation. My name is John Clay Wolf and I buy cars and collect wheels on the ra.
Caller/Guest
Come together.
John Clay Wolf
Right now over me back.

Podbean Announcer
Now back to the John Clay wolf show.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, JB in Houston. JB in Houston. JB In Houston, are you there? Yes, JB in Houston. 07 Silverado with 134 wheel drive crew cab. I don't know what it is. Figure it's 10,000. Maybe it's 8. Maybe it's. I don't doubt it's 12. Probably 8 to 10. So JB, since I'm on speakerphone, just go to givemetheven.com and load it up. Okay. Yeah, I could bid more cars, but everybody just go to givemetheven.com to get us to buy your cars. This is too good. Ross in Houston. What do you think?
Caller/Guest
Hey, John, how are you doing this afternoon?
John Clay Wolf
I'm good.
Caller/Guest
Okay. All I want to say, first time, long time. My opinion is that even though Rowdy screwed up, I hate thieves, hate liars, blah blah blah, all that stuff. I have no respect for any of that. At the same time, if you think about it pragmatically, that dude is probably never going to try to steal from you again. Under a microscope, everything he does now.
J.D. Ryan
True.
John Clay Wolf
You think we've got him? You think we've got him in submission mode?
Caller/Guest
I mean, I think you got him under your thumb and you know, this isn't like run like a normal company. I mean, you're the actual boss. You can make all those decisions. Like I work for Amazon, right? See, hypothetically, I got caught stealing. I'm gone. But you can make a judgment call on that.
John Clay Wolf
Well, here I've got a judgment call. We're hiring drivers and givemetheven.com and if you'd like a driver position, go to jobs@givemetheven.com particularly in the DFW area, you know, about 300 mile range and make a pretty good wage. More. More than you might expect. Also Uber drivers and Lyft drivers. We're putting an app together at Amazon drivers. We're putting an app together so that you can grab onto us stuff and get dispatch orders. We're gonna put you guys, bring you into the fold as well. And all of this was created because of rowdy's stealing. So rowdy. Thank you. My name is John Clay Wolf and I buy cars in the air.
Podbean Announcer

John Clay Wolf
Wow. What are those specs? One more time.
Caller/Guest
Six, two, four. £400. Crazed Kunas.
John Clay Wolf
Crazed kunas. It is crawfish season, so could you bring us some?
Caller/Guest
I could bring y' all some, but you got to pay for it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, that's fine. I mean, when have we not paid for everything we do? I paid for Bobbo's dates and he can't even close.
Caller/Guest
Is going for 100 a sack right now. How many sacks you want?
John Clay Wolf
So. So. So strip club. Do. Do you. Do you. Guilty or innocent?
Caller/Guest
I think stupid mistake, but no, no.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no. Guilty or innocent, Judge Wapner?
Caller/Guest
Guilty.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I mean, how can you call it a stupid mistake?
Caller/Guest
Tommy wasn't gonna get caught. But you gotta remember that I'm the one who knows. There's cameras everywhere.
John Clay Wolf
That's true. Thank you. I have Michael McDonald on line one. He hadn't called in the show in a few weeks.
J.D. Ryan
Michael? What's he doing?
John Clay Wolf
Michael McDonald. Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Hey, Josh.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, what's up?
Caller/Guest
I heard you're looking for some wheels.
John Clay Wolf
No, we found our wheels. We've got them back. What have you got? What have you got?
Caller/Guest
When you feel ain't nothing real. Your best deal, baby. Good looking wheels.
John Clay Wolf
What kind of wheels do you have, Michael McDonald?
Caller/Guest
Turn your life around with the wheels. I'm putting down.
John Clay Wolf
Deals on wheels by Michael McDonald. Do you always sing when you're talking?
Caller/Guest
A car looks better with wheels.
John Clay Wolf
What kind of wheels do you have, Michael?
Caller/Guest
I got the shin.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, Michael McDonald. Thank you, thank you.
J.D. Ryan
I just knew there'd be what a fool believes in there somewhere.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, he sounds just like himself.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Was this Doobie Brothers or who was this Doobie Brother? What a fool believes. Doesn't that go along with the whole theme of this past hour?
J.D. Ryan
And what Rowdy still has sweet freedom.
Turley
We gotta get to the shadow.
J.D. Ryan
Shadow behind. Yeah, okay.
John Clay Wolf
And you're right. So go to John Clay Wolf show the picture of the truck before in the video and the picture of the truck after after the wheel theft and molestation occurred.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And for those of y' all have been listening, please comment on there call in and figure out this shadow theory.
J.D. Ryan
The picture clearly shows the customer standing in front of the vehicle holding the I love, give me the. Give me the VIN sign. And he says behind that underneath there's clearly a shadow of people taking the wheels off. He says that's what there is. But as you look, there's. He just.
John Clay Wolf
I don't want your opinion, I want the listeners opinion. Okay, go to John Clay Wolf show and, and give us your opinion. If you think there is a Martian.
J.D. Ryan
Under the truck, you can clearly see under the truck because of the way the sun is shining. You could just actually see on the other side. So you go look for the shadow.
John Clay Wolf
I'm gonna give Rowdy a round of applause because if there's one man that is going to stick to a story and not break. Yeah, it is he.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, it was good.
John Clay Wolf
I mean if you're gonna just ride it out. Riding the storm. Turley, cue up Riding the storm out by REO Speedwagon please. Because I think that that is a relevant call. Angel in Houston, Texas. Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Good morning, John. Thank you for taking my call.
John Clay Wolf
Of course.
Caller/Guest
On my vehicle I have a 2017 Jeep Renegade that I purchased last year. Got only 12,000 miles. 12,015 miles.
John Clay Wolf
So it's a Cherokee. And is it a four wheel drive or two wheel drive and a four cylinder or six cylinder?
Caller/Guest
It's a two wheel drive. It's a four cylinder.
John Clay Wolf
It's a two wheel drive, four cylinder. All the renegades. Wait, wait, you're right. Hang on. I just want to pull this up in. Is it an altitude, a latitude, a sport or limited.
Caller/Guest
Latitude?
John Clay Wolf
Latitude. Four cylinder, 1.4 liter. Pull start or electric? I'm sorry, I'm being smartass. I said pull start or electric. Okay, so how many, how many miles are on it? Okay, now I think I know what she's worth. I think it's worth 12 grand.
Caller/Guest
I'm assuming I'm upside down. This vehicle.
John Clay Wolf
I'm assuming you are too. I'm sorry, I'm assuming you are too. Anybody that has a one year old Jeep Renegade, that financed it, anything, four cylinder, anything you buy new four cylinder, six cylinder. Payment cars, Kias, little cars, affordable cars. You're just upside down. You're just. I mean, you just are. There's no way around. You can see it a mile away. Hey, I've got a 2017 Altima. Yeah, you're 8 grand the day.
Caller/Guest
The best way to. What's the best way to. To sell this car?

J.D. Ryan
Maybe it's just a weird cut. Weird mix.
John Clay Wolf
Babo.
Bobbo
Here it is.
J.D. Ryan
Listen.
John Clay Wolf
This ain't it.
Bobbo
Nope.
John Clay Wolf
Try another one.
J.D. Ryan
Tell right there.
John Clay Wolf
Boy, Apple music, they're always on. Yeah. This is like some rock band.
Bobbo
It doesn't sound that different from the original.
John Clay Wolf
But listen. What's the guy's name? Kevin something.
J.D. Ryan
Kevin Cronin.
Bobbo
Cronin.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Yeah. If you listen to his version, it's different. 8. What's the number today? 817-377-0827. We've updated the Facebook page with all the pictures and the video of the. The theft. The theft. And we're interested in your opinion. Okay. Rush Limbaugh is.

John Clay Wolf
Only have one segment left on Dallas buzz. I know it's almost 11 o'.
Caller/Guest
Clock.
Turley
Remember we're looking for drivers now too.
John Clay Wolf
Drivers and retired drivers would love really like those cuz they don't have K. You know, small children they have to run and be responsible for.
J.D. Ryan
Less likely to steal wheels.
John Clay Wolf
Less likely to steal wheels. Retired Drivers jobs@givemetheven.com if you enjoy driving when want to make some extra money. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
If you're an Uber guy or a Lyft driver. I need perfect.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Except you're making money all the time, not just when somebody gets in your car.
John Clay Wolf
Well, actually we're gonna, we're gonna bring the Uber and Lyft squad because there's, there's automobile prostitution.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. How's that work?
John Clay Wolf
And well, Uber people have decided they'll prostitute their vehicles. Right. Okay. Their insurance, their fuel, their miles and their time. Right. Lyft, same thing. Favor app. These delay delivery services. Amazon prime delivery people are the same way.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
It's not just Uber anymore. So the people who have already, you know, accepted the concept of automobile prostitution, we're going to create an app to our own app where we can schedule them pickups and they can come to the. Come to our places, pick up our drivers and take them to the customer home to pick up the car. And this will decrease crime and death because the Craigslist sellers keep dying. Oh man. You know, it's happened.
J.D. Ryan
It has happened.
John Clay Wolf
It's not. 500 is not worth dying over. No. Was it?
Turley
Post an ad, get stabbed, run an ad, gets it.
John Clay Wolf
Be careful. Go ahead, rush limo. Good morning.
Bobbo
John.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
Bobbo
Are you still have JD Ryan with you?
John Clay Wolf
We do.
J.D. Ryan
Jd, I'm here.
John Clay Wolf
Hey.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
Bobbo
I've got to agree with him. He's right about that. That theft thing you've got going. Never, never encouraged that kind of behavior. Of course not.
John Clay Wolf
And don't steal from the guy that has a syndicated radio show and hundreds of thousands of people listening. Because that's hard to outrun.
Bobbo
You can almost say impossible.
John Clay Wolf
Oh. I mean, you know.
Bobbo
How are you liking the Winter Olympics?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bobbo
Is that a great scene as far as sports go? God, I miss football season already.
J.D. Ryan
These.
Bobbo
But look, these Winter Olympics are hard to get a grip on. Am I right?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, they really are.
John Clay Wolf
Indeed.
Bobbo
I have to be some sort of killary loving member of the Pro participation award crowd not to notice that the Olympics, whether it's the Summer Olympics or the spring or fall or Winter Olympics, kind of like something for everybody phenomenon. Like in football, you gotta play football. No two ways about it. It's the same with baseball or bowling.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
Bobbo
Or competitive pill eating.
John Clay Wolf
What? Competitive pill eating. That is a hell of a sport.
Bobbo
No, Olympic pill eating takes a great mind to excel at it. But you've got that one sport that you excel in. I mean, you do that.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Bobbo
And there's a reason everybody loves Tom Brady and John Rocker, John McEnroe. Because they're great at their sport. Look, these Olympics are like an all inclusive reservoir for those fringe sports that just can't draw a national television audience on their own merit.
J.D. Ryan
Right. Who would watch curling?
John Clay Wolf
Competitive pill eating.
Bobbo
And that spells what that's right. I think the Olympics are more than a little bit liberal. No, I mean, I'm as excited as the next guy to see these young athletes competing on a strictly amateur basis for home and country, but maybe I'm watching too much. But to me, the only saving grace of the Winter Olympics is the figure skating. Hacha. What? It's terribly exciting. I love it.
J.D. Ryan
Why?
Bobbo
I love the figure skating.
John Clay Wolf
What?
Bobbo
Besides the fact that the music has all gone to hell in a hand basket? You notice that?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I've noticed.
Bobbo
It's still an amazing, amazing thing to watch.
J.D. Ryan
They are very talented.
Bobbo
I've even come up with a drinking game based on for those late nights when you want to really dig into a great performance.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
Bobbo
You wanna know how this work? You're Gonna Love this, J.D.
John Clay Wolf
I love it.
Bobbo
You use good old Johnnie Walker Red Label for this.
J.D. Ryan
Red Label ice is optional.
John Clay Wolf
I'm nervous.
Bobbo
And you can lighten it up by using plain Bacardi. If you're lightweight.
J.D. Ryan
I got you.
Bobbo
Or if you're ethnically challenged. Here's how it.
John Clay Wolf
Ethnically challenged.
J.D. Ryan
Don't ask him. He'll tell you.
Bobbo
Well, the scotch is not for everyone.
J.D. Ryan
Okay, got you.
Bobbo
You take a big drink if a skater falls down.
J.D. Ryan
KO maybe.
Bobbo
Also, if the audience starts clapping along with the music. Two drinks if they're off the beat.
J.D. Ryan
If they're off the beat.
Bobbo
Also if Johnny Weir says something shady about a skater's comment, especially the male skaters. And two sips if Tara Lipinski does too. And take a big old Vladimir Putin sized gulp if one of the male skaters shows a woody.
J.D. Ryan
I don't think that's ever happened, ever.
Bobbo
And ever in this day and age. If one of the female skaters shows a little wood, you're obviously drunk and that means you win. Time to take a Xanax and go to bed. And you'll have a ball with this. Just watch the figure skating.
J.D. Ryan
It's fun.
John Clay Wolf
So mix your cocktails and your Olympic viewing.
Bobbo
Absolutely. It's the only way I can take it. And I've had a ball.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, Rush. You're always welcome here.
Bobbo
I got a triple axel right there.
John Clay Wolf
The door is always open for you. We have. We have the Olympics on the screen right now. And it's cross country skiing. There couldn't be anything more boring to watch than people polling through the woods. GoPro a little bit. I don't even like polling when I'm skiing. It's like the worst part of skiing. And now we're watching them just pull themselves through a Trail in the woods.
J.D. Ryan
Be like competitive lift riding.
John Clay Wolf
They're racing competitive lift riding.
Bobbo
It's like a sack ride. It's just, just, you know, takes so long to get anywhere and these guys are working their ass.
John Clay Wolf
Ray, Good morning, you're on the air. Ray.
Caller/Guest
Hey, Ray John. How you doing, buddy?
John Clay Wolf
I'm good. Where are you from?
Caller/Guest
Well, I'm calling from Arlington.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
And I would like to have Rowdy's job.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
I'm 67, I'll be 68 in April returns. And I was forced into retirement by a stroke. I was driving a truck. I've been driving a truck 43 years and I would still be driving if I hadn't had this dead gum stroke.
John Clay Wolf
But you lost your medical for a commercial license. But are you still a licensed driver?
Caller/Guest
I'm a licensed driver. I've got a, I've got a four speed hot rod in the garage that I drive all the time. It's just I can't pass the dot physical.
John Clay Wolf
Understand? Do you have it, do you have an email address? Oh, yes sir, I do email jobs@givemetheven.com and send us your info and we'll line up an interview.
Caller/Guest
Very good, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Thanks, man. And buyers too. We're hiring more buyers. We're going into more markets. We actually built a buyer room number three next door. It really looks good. We're moving into it this weekend and we're going to, we're upping our game and adding more cities and all this good stuff. So we're going to be hiring more buyers for. Give me the Vince. So if anybody's interested in that, the job for that is in Fort Worth, Texas. If you live in Dallas, you will have to commute. If you live in Baton Rouge, you will have to drive and live in Fort Worth, Texas. If you live in Houston, God love Houston. We love our fans in Houston. But if you live there and you want to be a draw a buyer, forgive me the vin, you're going to have to move. You move wherever you want. But you have to drive to Fort Worth, Texas, to the office every morning.
J.D. Ryan
Nine o', clock, you gotta be here.
John Clay Wolf
And when you email me about all these ways that maybe we could work it out, I can tell you at the end of the conversation at 9 in the morning, your ass has got to be here.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
And it's going to be here until 6 at the office and then you can go where the hell you want to go. Yeah. But I can also tell you if you do move up here from, from Louisiana or Arkansas or Oklahoma, if they let you in from Oklahoma. And if you decide to live up in Dallas or Frisco and you're going to drive, you get tired of the drive. It's a commute. So. So look at apartments or homes near Fort Worth, because that's where the office is. Home is where the heart is. And this is where I'm from. And this is where we've decided to headquarter this company. I was talking to the guys on sports radio in Houston last week, right on the air. And you know, the range of Rangers are rebuilding and the Cowboys suck.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And the this and the that. And Houston has a lot of good things going. Astros win the World Series. The Rockets are killing it. The Texans are. Okay.
J.D. Ryan
So you went on the air with them and used.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I didn't know.
John Clay Wolf
And the only good thing coming out of Dallas right now is us 817-radio-377. 817. 377-00827. My God. We've got 330 cars lined up for the auction this week. I was up until 2:45 last night setting the run list. I mean, like I'm. I'm running.
J.D. Ryan
This is the order.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Which is very important. We'll be back in just a minute.
Podbean Announcer
Give me the vin dot com.
Caller/Guest
You guys make me laugh every Saturday morning, man. It's awesome. Love listening to y'. All.
Podbean Announcer
And now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by gimmetheven.com.
John Clay Wolf
Is this Sally in the Alley? What? What?
Turley
This is a babo request.
Bobbo
Far out, man.
John Clay Wolf
Is. Is this. What's his name that did Addicted to Love?
Bobbo
Yes. Robert Palmer.
John Clay Wolf
I can hear it. Was he part of the nitty? He never was knitted, did he? What was he in?
Bobbo
Was he Power station?
John Clay Wolf
He was in. He was himself. He got famous with Addicted to Love. Real famous with Addicted to Love. But that stealing Sally from the alley is sneaking Sally. Yeah, that's the.
Turley
That's from that doctor.
Bobbo
Doctor. Give me the news. That's brother.
Turley
Yeah, that's from that album, which ironically has a similar photo to Bobbo's girlfriend that's on the Facebook page.
John Clay Wolf
With the eyes. Yeah. Blacked out. Yes. Pull up Sally to the alley when you get a chance. That. Because that song. To Rowdy Stealing the Wheels from the Alley.
Bobbo
It's the same song.
Turley
Yeah, it's in here.
John Clay Wolf
It's. Oh, it turns into it.
Bobbo
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
This. This is that one. It's long song. It's like 10 minutes.
Bobbo
You've obviously never listened to the album.
John Clay Wolf
No, it's a good one, though.
Bobbo
It's great stuff, man.
John Clay Wolf
No, I've heard this song where it goes into the whole deal. So it turns into stealing salary. Yeah.
Bobbo
Sneaking Sally down the alley.
John Clay Wolf
Keep saying. Well, I keep saying stealing. Because the topic of today's show is driver theft, which is unfortunate.
J.D. Ryan
Happens every once in a great while.
John Clay Wolf
817-377-0827.
J.D. Ryan
It. You got mileage out of it, man.
John Clay Wolf
We got a lot of miles. We did get miles out.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
We got our wheels back. We got miles out of it. We had fun. The listeners enjoyed it. I've got them a run street truck wheel stolen. In the drama that went with it. Could be meaty content. Well, I think that that was correct. I think that was me content. We have a 2017 Lamborghini Gallardo in the lane. This week's 400, hundred thousand dollars.
J.D. Ryan
Where did it come from?
John Clay Wolf
It's a secret, man. I can't give up. My sources. Came from a. Give me the VIN customer. The dealers at the auction that we sell at are complaining that we're stealing the oxygen out of the room.
J.D. Ryan
Somebody really say that?
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I totally get it, man.
Bobbo
Because I've seen.
J.D. Ryan
I've been down there when that happens. You guys have this huge dog and pony and carnival show going.
John Clay Wolf
Sell every single car.
J.D. Ryan
And yes, win, lose or drop, Everything's in. All the people and all the activity. And then you walk 50ft to the next lane, and it looks like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. They're just down. They're just sad people.
John Clay Wolf
They're just.
J.D. Ryan
They feel like they've lost their very best friend. But I can see why they pull the oxygen out of the room. That's great.
John Clay Wolf
So true. You know what's weird is when I came back from Vernon and there's three of those guys, maybe four, One of them I really like, but there's three of them that I went to. These guys that run the other auction lanes.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
That do what we do. That I went to. To try to get re established with.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't have any money. I had to start back over. I was like, hey, you know, I know how to do this. I'm gonna get back into it. I got out of it. I got in the new car business. I got hurt. I got divorced. I got embezzled. I failed.
Bobbo
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
I got to start up over. This was only seven or eight years ago. And they all turned me down.
J.D. Ryan
You've come a long way.
John Clay Wolf
They all turned me down.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
They all Turned me down.
J.D. Ryan
How's their oxygen supply? That's my line of the week, man. He's pulled the oxygen out of the room. And it's so true. It's funny.
John Clay Wolf
They all turned me down. I think that's been part of my drive. Really, really, really bothered me. The guys.
J.D. Ryan
The guys you thought were your friends?
John Clay Wolf
I didn't think they were my friends, but I knew that they respected me for what I know what you could do. And there's one of them in particular that had a similar situation. And he got broke and he got drunk, and he went to rehab, and he came back about 45 and started over. And he had to go what we call drafting or flooring off of one of his old competitors. It was just kind of a thing you do, you know, take care of a guy that is on a comeback.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
None of them would give me a.
Turley
Shot because they were scared. That's really the truth. I mean, I'm serious.
J.D. Ryan
They knew where he was going and didn't want him to come.
John Clay Wolf
One of them in particular, actually, we. When Turley was going through his training, training world to get to where he is, we sent him to an auction in Abilene one day. And it was this time of year, it's like, buy the damn cars. Buy the damn cars. And there's a guy that. He's like me. He's a savant at this, if you want to call it, as best as his game at what we do.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And he took Turley for several rounds, and it cost us about $15,000. Yeah. And Turley was green. He got his teeth cut in that day. But that guy knew he was my guy, right? He beat him into a pulp, and.
Turley
I was too stubborn to let go. It was just bad.
John Clay Wolf
So it was experience. So how was your oxygen supply that day, Turley? It was gone.
J.D. Ryan
Here's what you need to do next week.
John Clay Wolf
Did you get you. Did he get you in a choker hold?
Turley
Yeah, I was a sleeper.
John Clay Wolf
So do you think that should we feel bad if we're taking any oxygen out of his part of the room? No, no.
Turley
I think he needs to get some scuba gear, don't you think?
J.D. Ryan
You go get the oxygen masks, the ones that have been used for the airliners, and you put one on every one of those desks. Next week, when this drops down, you may want to grab it.
John Clay Wolf
James and I. Oklahoma. Good morning, James. Oklahoma, James. Hello. Hey. What's up?
Caller/Guest
I'm just. I'm getting up and I'm drinking.

John Clay Wolf
Yeah? What kind of beer?
Caller/Guest
Well, m. Milwaukee's best right now.
John Clay Wolf
What time is it? Right. It's 11:15. What time did you get started on this beer? I'm going to say you got started on this beer at 8, 8:30 this morning.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, about that time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like your radio station. I'm 57 years old and I started rocking, rolling back in about 1976.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And.
Caller/Guest
They had some good radio stations on, but not like this one.
J.D. Ryan
Who dialed your phone.
John Clay Wolf
Now, I hear what you're saying, James, in the broken words you're using. I've heard this before. What you're saying is this show on Saturday morning reminds me you of that late 70s FM vibe that you used to hear of. Loose, loose lip radio jocks and fun and not scared to talk about real stuff.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, I'm glad you pointed that out because I know I met about 300 people last week in Houston that feel the same way. And I'm glad that we're a place for everybody to get together on Saturday and, and have a good time and relax and feel like they're amongst friends.
Caller/Guest
Oh, I. I had a motorcycle wreck.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
In Houston.
John Clay Wolf
Ouch.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
How long ago?
Caller/Guest
Oh, 1980.
John Clay Wolf
Did street get bad?
Caller/Guest
It shattered my skull.
J.D. Ryan
So you're thinking alcohol is the best way to.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, stop it, jd. Let this man be happy. We're not gonna listen to you happy. I know it. JD's a recovered alcoholic, so he always has to dive in on everybody and try to take the fun out of it. He likes to steal. He likes to steal the oxygen out of the room.
J.D. Ryan
That's not true. I'm trying to keep to save this guy's life.
Bobbo
That's just part of why we have JD on the show. It's campfire time on the on the John Clay Wolf Show.
J.D. Ryan
Let your listeners die off.
Bobbo
Roady's getting some stuff ready for us to put on the air.
John Clay Wolf
James, would you rather be sober, completely sober, never be able to drink again, or would you rather be dead?
Bobbo
That's a good answer.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, usually I drink 10 point beer from a liquor store.
John Clay Wolf
I think that's our answer.
J.D. Ryan
You got your answer.
John Clay Wolf
I'm with you, James. You keep drinking and you keep enjoying yourself. Don't drive. Don't get.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, I don't have a car.
John Clay Wolf
Keep rocking and rolling. Keep tuning in and. And when you pass, I want you to tell your heirs, friends, whoever's going to handle your funeral, whenever, if it's 20 years from now, 10 years from now, whenever it is that to let us know because I'm going to do a eulogy for you on the air and it's of a super fan. You're a super fan. All right.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
All right.
Caller/Guest
I'll call in my obit.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Thanks, James. Seats are.
Turley
I mean, it's just like the drunk.
John Clay Wolf
Trump and drunk Melania there really was 2006, I study for the test and become a US. It's just like it. 817. The number today is 817. 3770827.
Turley
I feel drunk right now.
John Clay Wolf
Giving it one thing to drink.
Bobbo
It kind of came through the speakers.
John Clay Wolf
I may have to re.
J.D. Ryan
Establish my sobriety after that call.
John Clay Wolf
He was serious too. Would you rather never be able to drink again or die? He's happy where he is.
J.D. Ryan
Let him go.
John Clay Wolf
He's happy where he is.
J.D. Ryan
Let him go.
John Clay Wolf
It's fine. I'm so serious. We're gonna do his obit when it's time.
J.D. Ryan
I agree.
John Clay Wolf
I think he's got seven years left. More than David Lee Ross.
Bobbo
I'm just gratified. They have ten point beer somewhere.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. What does a ten point beer it.
Turley
Tastes like it's good German beer.
John Clay Wolf
Stuff like that. Yeah, it's really 10 point beer in Oklahoma. I thought it was half beer. That's why I said the liquor store.
J.D. Ryan
The liquor store.
John Clay Wolf
The liquor store store.
Turley
You can't buy it in the grocery store.
John Clay Wolf
My name is John Clay Wolf. We actually buy cars on the radio on Saturday mornings a lot of times, but today our phone's screwed up. You can go to givemetheven.com anybody in this listening area. We will send drivers in most of the listing areas to come pick it up. If not, we'll meet the closest metro area. Like I'm not going to Pecos, Texas to pick up a piece of a 500 car, but we would go to Pecos, Texas to pick up a hummer or a good diesel truck.
Turley
We're going out to Midland here soon for a vehicle.
John Clay Wolf
Good morning, Midland, Texas. Good morning, Corpus. Good morning, Colleen. The. The Viper. No, not the Viper. The Dodge Demon guy last week that sold us this car for 105,000. He. He won't work. Hey, can I call you back? Can I call you back? He's not committing on his end of the day deal. Isn't that too bad? I hate that when that Happens, it happens. He'll call back. They typically do. But sometimes when we have to back the price up, then they don't like that. You know, we just want to do business. We want to buy cars. We buy several hundred cars a week and that's what we do. So when you call in or go to give me the van, we're not.
Turley
Just giving you a price?
John Clay Wolf
No, it's not like one of those cheerleader services just talks about it. We're here, we're right. Writing a check, sending a wire, making your payoff, taking possession, doing the deal and actually doing what we say we do. And if you don't believe it, go Google, give me the VIN reviews and look around. I mean, we have hundreds of customers. Mike and Beaumont, good morning.
Caller/Guest
Man. How could, how could James be 57? It's now. Sounds like he's been rocking and rolling since the was 58.
John Clay Wolf
James had had a few pops this morning. Nah, just a couple. What's on your mind, man?
Caller/Guest
I heard you mention Johnny Winter earlier in the show.
Turley
Yeah, yeah, Rush did.
Caller/Guest
Rush did the figures care commentator. Yeah, I was wondering, he's got like a new overnight popularity and I was thinking, thinking maybe he could start doing like some old school commercial with some modern day flair. Yeah, like, like you know, doing the old Reese's cup commercial where he says, hey, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate and I don't mind.
John Clay Wolf
Good morning, you're on the air. Who's this?
DJ Prek
This Keith.
John Clay Wolf
Hey Keith, what's up?
Caller/Guest
Not much.
John Clay Wolf
You're on the air?
Caller/Guest
Yep. Okay.
John Clay Wolf
All right, talk to me.
Caller/Guest
I won't say nothing dirty then.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, good. What's on your mind?
Caller/Guest
I got a 2010 F150XLT, four door, metallic black.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
81, 816 miles.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, four wheel drive or two?
Caller/Guest
Two wheel drive.
John Clay Wolf
Right off the top of my head I'm thinking 10 GS. Okay, what are you thinking?
Bobbo
Oh.
Caller/Guest
That'S what I've looked and seen, but I looked on other, I don't know, I guess car dealerships jack them up. I've seen some for 14 and 15.
John Clay Wolf
Oh yeah. I mean, yes. Yeah, they jack them up, that's for sure. Is it a 4, 6 or a 5 or which engine's in it?
Caller/Guest
It's the 5 0.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, let me look at something real quick. I'm gonna look it up. So it's a two wheel drive, 5 liter XLT black, two wheel drive with 85 mid-80s on the miles. Does it have a clean carfax? Do you know? Tell Me this what is. Let's assume it does. Does it need any love? Does it need. Does it have a Louisiana package, a whiskey dent and a busted windshield?
Caller/Guest
It is dip free.
John Clay Wolf
Does 11 grand buy it?
Caller/Guest
Let me send you a picture and give you the. I guess I'll get my wife.
John Clay Wolf
Go to go go to give me the VIND and load it up. But tell me what buys it.
Caller/Guest
I'm assuming I'd have 14 for it, right?
John Clay Wolf
That buys. Okay, you're gonna need to run an ad, but don't get stabbed. Okay, but I'll, I will, I will give 11 and I might give 12.
Bobbo
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And then the thing. Do you have a title or do you have a payoff?
Caller/Guest
Oh, no, it's clear and free.
John Clay Wolf
Here's the neat thing with me is it won't be rowdy showing up up to pick up your car, but someone else.
Caller/Guest
I understand that but. But we might take the wheels off.
John Clay Wolf
We will, but we will show up and pay you promptly and. And trouble free. And I mean it's just the smoothest, cleanest deal. It'd be like ordering a pizza. So if you'll take 12 grand for that truck, load it into givemetheven.com and let's get it bought and get it picked up. Or you call calling from Gainesville, Texas. I know where that is. It's not far. It's not far. So think about it. I'll buy your truck. I'll get you paid. 800. 800. No, no, no, no, no. 817-377-0827 this morning or get the number off of the John Clay Wolf show Facebook page. And all the stories and pictures of Bobbo's affair and the. The thievery and a lot of in the pictures from the radios, the listener party last week are all on that John Clay Wolf show Facebook page and also a link to the podcast that'll go up about 1 o'. Clock. Be right back.

Podbean Announcer
And now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by gimmetheven.com.
John Clay Wolf
We had a caller, J.D.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Come in a minute ago to correct me, okay. From West Texas. Deep, deep West Texas. And she's right, funny. The program guy from the Midlands classic rock station room, right? He. He's told me that week one, he's like, it's not Pecos, it's Pecos.
J.D. Ryan
Pecos.
John Clay Wolf
And I knew that. I just forgot. But she. She called and say, it's not Pecos, it's Pecos.
J.D. Ryan
There you go. All right, so we have to straighten out Pekis.
John Clay Wolf
We got it straightened out. This is Aretha Franklin for those of y' all who are not in the know. And it's a cover of a Beatles song that she might have done better than the Beatles.
Bobbo
That's the Queen of Soul.
John Clay Wolf
This is. I like this better than their version.
Bobbo
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
It sounds like our logistics department. It does.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
See that doing the little shuffle sideways to the right? We should do that. Make a little music video of everybody up here.
Turley
Oh, they jam in there, man.
John Clay Wolf
I'll go in. Joe in Houston, good morning. You're on the air.
J
Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Good morning, John. What's going on?
John Clay Wolf
Oh, we haven't done much, but we've been cutting up a lot.
Caller/Guest
And, man, it's fun. Every Saturday morning, I run Hot Shot, man. And I. I live to come out and Saturday morning run a little Hot Shot. Y' all crazy.
John Clay Wolf
Good, good. Knowing you guys are out there makes a big difference. And meeting them in person, a lot of our, you know, real fans last Saturday was overwhelming, to say the least. It's. It. I. I always thought there was a lot of you guys out there because a lot of people, we all share the same kind of sense of humor and. And that's why you're there. Okay, you got a 13 Lexus RX350.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And it has 105 on the clock. Is that right?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What color?
Caller/Guest
I'd say like a metal blue. Bluish, grayish.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. We call that loser blue. That's fine. Is it an all wheel drive?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Actually, if it's like gunmetal blue, it's not loser blue. Loser blue is baby blue or not baby blue.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, that is loser blue. But I wasn't on the car. That was baby blue.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Does it have factory navigation no sunroof leather. All right. It's got 90 on 103 on the clock. I think it's worth 12 G's.
Caller/Guest
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
It's just maybe, maybe 13.
Caller/Guest
Okay. If it hadn't do what you did me good on my 06 bed a couple years back and I just thought I'd call you back.
John Clay Wolf
How many miles were on the vet?
Caller/Guest
83.
Givemethevin.com Announcer
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
And 15. You gave me a 20. 21 for it. It was pretty damn good. That came out pretty good on that one. I think I actually got a 14. I actually got a 14 with 33 right now. 014 convertible. Black on black, black rims, yellow calipers. What are we looking at?
J.D. Ryan
That.
John Clay Wolf
How long have you had it?
Caller/Guest
May will be a year. I haven't had it a year yet.
John Clay Wolf
Well, keep it. You don't want to sell it, do you?
Caller/Guest
No, not really. I don't. Good.
John Clay Wolf
Right now this 13 Lexus with 100 with no nav is worth mid teens. In the lower end of mid teens. So 13, 12, 13. I don't think I'd give 14 since it's turned 100. I'd try though if. If 14 would buy it. Go to givemetheven.com and load it up. We'll take a look.
Caller/Guest
I got 18 on it right now, so I'll be upside down. Four, but I understand.
John Clay Wolf
Well, hell, that's three weeks of running your truck. You can cover it. 817-377-0827. Today is our number because our phone, our 800 number screwed up a gazillion mile. Dodge truck. Speaking of hot shotters, Don, are you a hot shotter?
Caller/Guest
Am I a hot shot or.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. 300000 miles. I figured you must be running up down the highway with a. Pulling. Pulling stuff.
Caller/Guest
I used to chase hail storms, okay?
John Clay Wolf
Bobo used to chase tail until he realized he didn't know how to skin it. Boy. Oh, that just came out of the bl. Oh. See, I've been busting his balls for two weeks straight.
J.D. Ryan
Straight.
John Clay Wolf
That was the best hundred dollars I ever spent, Bob. Hey, don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What city in Louisiana?
Caller/Guest
St. Francisville. It's just north of Baton Rouge.
John Clay Wolf
I'm familiar.
Caller/Guest
Oh, it's a historic town. Yeah, yeah. Got plantations everywhere. Does they film a lot of movies here too?
John Clay Wolf
300,000 miles on a two wheel drive. Even though it's a five nine. I'm guessing it's a five nine. I think. Yeah. 07 is when it was a switch. I'm four grand, maybe five.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
The four wheel.
John Clay Wolf
Four? Yeah. Four or five grand.
Caller/Guest
See, I just put four grand in it in brand new ejectors.
John Clay Wolf
You need to. And I believe you because I have done the same thing. And here's the problem. If I buy that truck, let's say you hadn't done that, and the injectors fail on me. I have to. It cost me three to 3,500 to do the injectors and. And anybody else that buys it. And that's why it could just only be worth so much. I mean, they're like that Cummins engine lasts forever. Well, the block will and the pistons will, but there's parts around it that won't. And it's expensive as hell. Well, good luck with it. Let me know if you want to sell it.
Caller/Guest
That's what I asked my mechanic. I said, you know, how long will it go with these new injectors? He goes, well, you went 312,000 miles on the first set.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. You know, it's just a deal. Do you want to get rid of it? Then that's what it's worth. If you want to drive it for. Not for. Until the wheels fall off of it, that's probably your best bet.
Caller/Guest
Okay. Okay.
John Clay Wolf
All right, man.
Caller/Guest
Well, thank you much.
John Clay Wolf
Yes, sir. 817-377-0827. That number's posted on our Facebook page. If. If I'm saying it too fast, I know it's hard to remember.
J.D. Ryan
Did Randy, the little. Did he come by at all today?
John Clay Wolf
I don't remember. Randy. He's over there.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, there he is.
John Clay Wolf
He is pissed.
J.D. Ryan
What's he, mad? Oh, really?
Turley
Oh, God. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Randy the chipmunk has been drinking.
J.D. Ryan
Quiet.
Turley
Yeah, that's why you've been seeing a lot of him.
John Clay Wolf

Bobbo

Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
I'm taking witches having a joke. What are you.
J.D. Ryan
You drunk, buddy?
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
It takes one to no one, Turley.
John Clay Wolf
I can't understand what he's saying.
J.D. Ryan
He said, it takes one to no one, Turley. Now he's just laughing.
John Clay Wolf
What have you. What have you been drinking? Randy's funny.
J.D. Ryan
Why are you so.

Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Peacocks have the most dangerous peckers.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I didn't know that.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
They'll pick you right to death.
J.D. Ryan
They'll pick up you.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Yeah. They can get a eye at 4ft, cuz it got a long neck.
J.D. Ryan
Big long neck.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Anyway, screw the peacocks. No, will you get those beads.
J.D. Ryan

We'll be right back.
Podbean Announcer
Back with more of the John Clay Wolf show after this, presented by givemethevin.com and now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by givemetheven.com.
John Clay Wolf
Last segment of today's presentation, gentlemen. Bob O. It's almost over.
Bobbo
Unbelievable, man.
J.D. Ryan
Where did the day go?
John Clay Wolf
JD until 2:45. Setting the run list for Wednesday. And I'm whipped. And then I had to get up at 7 o', clock, do a conference call.
J.D. Ryan
The order of the cars at the auction is the run list.
John Clay Wolf
Why?
J.D. Ryan
Why two o' clock in the morning?
John Clay Wolf
Well, there are 350 of them.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, okay.
John Clay Wolf
And you have to do it just right. You have to place them in the right place at the right time. Sure.
J.D. Ryan
It's like a show. Like. Like a parade.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
J.D. Ryan
You have certain floats in certain places.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Makes Sense.
Turley
Certain ladies can't dance with other ladies.
J.D. Ryan
I understand. It's all show. It's all presentation. That's why you're sucking the oxygen out of the room. That's one of the other people in one of the other lanes said. I love that.
John Clay Wolf
I learned that from a dear friend of mine named Bob Holinshed. And he's been quite the mentor to say the least. But he used to tell me how important it was, and I wasn't listening to him. I heard him and I thought it was cool. But the more you get into it, the more you notice the differences in change the reaction. Okay. It. It becomes an obsession. What is the run order?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, the run order.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, my God.
J.D. Ryan
Very important.
John Clay Wolf
It's ridiculous because you're competing against all these other lanes, which are like booths at the fair.
J.D. Ryan
Right. So somebody hasn't seen it.
John Clay Wolf
And you want to be Fletcher's corn dogs.
J.D. Ryan
Right. Where people are lined up 19 different deep.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
So you've got to do it just right.
Bobbo
Sure.
J.D. Ryan
Makes sense. It's a show, it's a presentation, and you want to keep.
John Clay Wolf
It's good old fashioned Jewish merchandising. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
You don't want to blow all your good stuff and then have nothing. You want to. Yeah. Make it a flow.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. And the buyer for this car would be a good buyer for that car.
J.D. Ryan
So he's already right there.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. And that's. And then those transitions, man. I mean, man, those transitions coming off of that kind of car into this kind of car, then you got to put the right kind of transition car where maybe both the person between the transition be interested. So that car does. Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Makes sense.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, it makes you crazy. I sat up until 2:45 last night, and last week I sat up until 2:30. Do it.
J.D. Ryan
I know you did it.
John Clay Wolf
You overslept the show.
J.D. Ryan
Overslept the show. Then he slipped in the street on the way over in the rain. God, what a morning.
John Clay Wolf
Well, this run order thing is.
J.D. Ryan
Anyone can help you? No.
John Clay Wolf
Well, yeah. I mean, Turley helped me for a long time. He'd block it out and get it 80 there, sometimes a hundred. It was a lot easier when the runs were shorter.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, but.
John Clay Wolf
But now it's. Turley's busy doing something else. And I've got a new guy that's very experienced in the car world. But what we're teaching him, he's not used to.
J.D. Ryan
Not there yet.
John Clay Wolf
And it, you know, it's kind of. Mike, it's weird that when you're trying to teach people this, they don't get it. And all that time you spent on those conference calls and all that, you know, you've sat around and studied and studied and studied and studied, and now you kind of know your s. And it's funny. It's funny. It's good for you. Hard work pays off. Valerie. Good morning.
J
Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Almost.
J
Good afternoon.
John Clay Wolf
I know it. Almost. How are you?
J
Well, I'm doing okay. However, I'm a little hurt that you said my Dallas Cowboys suck.
John Clay Wolf
Well, they do. I mean, they're mine too. They're mine too.
J
They are your team too, and you say they suck.
John Clay Wolf
I'm very disappointed. I'm very disappointed.
J
Okay, well, that's a kinder way to say it. But the year before last, when Dak was a rookie, it was great quarterback. Okay, well, you gotta love them always, not just when they're doing good.
John Clay Wolf
I love them still. I did give up my season tickets this year because I. I can't. I can't take the heartbreak. Have you been in a bad relationship where they just keep breaking your heart? I just can't take it. It's bad for my blood pressure. Right. I'm not walking away, but I'm taking a break. I took the kids and I moved out of the house. We're living on the other side of town and we're just visiting on, you know, Wednesdays for dinner.
J.D. Ryan
It's not you, it's us.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bobbo
But Texas Rangers for years. For years.
J
Look, may I just say that I'm not a Houston fan, but talking to a Houston fan or a Green Bay fan, it doesn't matter. I don't never tell them their team sucks.
Bobbo
You know, you ought to try it.
John Clay Wolf
You ought to try it. It's good. It'll make you feel good.
Bobbo
Great conversation.
John Clay Wolf
You know, the Green Bay. I have. I have a fundamental issue with Green Bay because I'm. I'm still upset about the damn catch.
Turley
Boy. And in the Super Bowl. And did you see what happened in the Super Bowl?
John Clay Wolf
It happened again.
Turley
And guess what?
J.D. Ryan
What? The other way.
John Clay Wolf
It was a catch. Theirs was a little bit cleaner. That's the same thing. It was very, very, very similar. But there's was a touch cleaner. Touch cleaner.
J
But the Cowboys are going to all the way this year.
John Clay Wolf
There you go, Valerie. I mean, some call me a dreamer. I. I appreciate your. I. I love it. I hope you're right. I. I just. I just. I just can't take the heartbreak. I know that sounds like a. I just can't. It just. It kills me so Anyway, I, I, I hope you're right. I'm not a bandwagon fan. I'm a fan, but, but I'm always, I'm ready for Jason. Jason Garrett is nice of a guy. He is. He. How many times we've been in the playoffs early the past 10 years.
Turley
There's a couple.
John Clay Wolf
Year before the Green Bay game.
Turley
Yeah, there's been three times.
John Clay Wolf
And I don't mean round one, I mean real playoffs.
Turley
Well, 2014 was a real run, right? That's the last real run.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J
Valerie, I'm certainly on Jones's side with, you know, supporting the flag, our troops banding with blue and our other emergency responders.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I'm, I'm all about all of it. Where are you from?
J
Well, I'm, I'm over here in Piot, which is outside of Pecos.
John Clay Wolf
Pecos. Not Pecos, but Pecos.
J.D. Ryan
Pecos.
J
Yeah. And it's Piote, not peyote.
John Clay Wolf
How. Bobbo, you can't eat her.
Bobbo
There is a difference. There is a difference.
John Clay Wolf
How far are you from, say, Midland driving?
J
Oh, about 65 miles.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, I'm glad that we have a new female listener out in the middle of Peyote, Texas. Yes.
J
I've been listening to you the last couple of Saturdays, and I really wanted to ask you. My dad has a 55 Cushman motor scooter off the top of your head, is it restored? He did have it restored just two, two years ago. Two and a half years ago. New paint, all that kind of stuff. Tune up. My dad's the second owner.
John Clay Wolf
I'd be lying.
J
8, 000 miles, I'd be lying.
John Clay Wolf
Is it like a greenie wagon? Like the golf course?
J
It's got the wheelbarrow size tires. It has the running board, suicide clutch gear shifter on the side of the tank. It has like the big.
John Clay Wolf
It's what the elementary janitor ran around at school. Yeah. Hey, Randy's back.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
I still got $40 left. I'll buy it.
J.D. Ryan
Where'd the 60 bucks go?
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
I want to speak tacos. I'll buy that. Mar.
J
Is that that squirrel?
John Clay Wolf
Louisiana.
Randy (Drunk Chipmunk)
Do I look like a damn squirrel?
J.D. Ryan
He's a chipmunk.
John Clay Wolf
He's a drunk chipmunk.
J
Sounds like a squirrel to me.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know. Well, if you got to know him well, he is a squirrel. I appreciate you calling in. We got to keep courage good. Go cowboys. I'm with you. Go cable. Go cowboys. Now, this is the best named town in the entire state of Texas.
J.D. Ryan
There are a lot of really Good ones. Which one is that?
John Clay Wolf
Dumbass.
J.D. Ryan
It's not dumbass.
Turley
Rowdy from there, too.
John Clay Wolf
No, I love it. Dumas, Texas. Right there on the New Mexico. Jack, how far is D. Zumas from the New Mexico line?
Caller/Guest
Probably 40. Let me think. Probably 45 miles, 50 miles. Air miles. Probably right up there.
John Clay Wolf
It's pretty close.
Caller/Guest
And Oklahoma is about the same.
John Clay Wolf
Have you been there all your life?
Caller/Guest
No, I moved there when I was seven, but I've been there most of my life.
John Clay Wolf
Do you have any dumbass Texas jokes? I mean. I mean, I'm sure you've heard people make that stupid comment all for so long, it's. You roll your eyes. Are there any good jokes that have come out of it?
Caller/Guest
Not. Not that I know of, but it's been kind of comfortable my whole life.
John Clay Wolf
Dumas. Ah. Unbelievable. Dumas. Dumas. French. It's French for the panhandle. Is that. Is that. Is that feedlot country? I know it is. I'm pretty sure it is, isn't it? Cattle feedlot country?
Caller/Guest
Yeah, we got. We got a. Probably half a dozen around there.
John Clay Wolf
They smell so good.
Caller/Guest
Yeah. It's not like Hereford, though, right?
John Clay Wolf
Hereford's loaded. A 14 challenger RT with 30 and a roof. Is it leather?
Caller/Guest
No, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so is it a stick or an automatic?
Caller/Guest
Automatic.
John Clay Wolf
And it's not an RT. Plus, it's not a shaker. It's not SRT. Okay, 30. What color?
Caller/Guest
Red. Red for the white stripe.
John Clay Wolf
Which red? Dark red. Like fire engine red or burgundy? Ish. Red.
Caller/Guest
No fire engine.
Bobbo
Good.
John Clay Wolf
And the white stripe looks good, but it's cloth. But it does have a factory sunroof in it. It has a clean carfax and no cattle have run into it and screwed.
Caller/Guest
No, No.
John Clay Wolf
You're so far away from me. It's gonna cost me 400 to get it here, maybe five, because I gotta send drivers all the way up there. No, no, no, no. We've got that Amarillo crew that picks up out of Amarillo. How far are you from Amarillo?
Caller/Guest
45 miles.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. So they can run up there and pick it up, then parked it, and then car transport will swing through and pick it up. Yeah. Yeah. So it's not as bad as it was. I'll give $19,000 for it.
Caller/Guest
19,000?
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
Caller/Guest
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
Caller/Guest
Well, I've been asking 23 for it.
John Clay Wolf
Well, you gotta. You got a buyer at 19,000. Go to givemetheven.com and load it up.
Caller/Guest
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Thanks, man. I'd give out the number. Let's turl. You weren't there for the comedy, but my hose slapping on the block. Every time we sell a car, I take this big black hose and slap the hell out of the countertop. Makes that popular here. And I finally beat the top off of the. I beat the top off of the wall off the block. Oh, wow.
Turley
Did you know that I saw some photos, but I didn't realize what that was about. Now I know it makes sense.
John Clay Wolf
The whole auction block. And yes, I mean, it punched a hole in it through the format. Micah. But worse than that, it. It slowly, over the past several months, slapping that thing. It's just beat all the nails out of everything and the whole, like the computer the auctioneer looks at, it was all done.
J.D. Ryan
Oh my God.
John Clay Wolf
So they rebuilt it this week with two by sixes and they put it. They put stainless steel top on it.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
So we'll see if that holds.
Bobbo
Home Depot. Fix it yourself. It's a classy move, right?
John Clay Wolf
It is a classy move, Rat. Remember, sell us your car. Givemetheven.com if you don't. If you don't have your VIN number and you know your license plate, do that. We want to buy them, we'll come to you. We'll pick them up, we'll pay for them. Look at our reviews online. It speaks for themselves. And thank you guys for listening. Thanks again, Houston fans for coming and meeting us. We will do it in Dallas on. On St. Patty's stinking.
DJ Prek

Aired: February 13, 2026
This episode captures all the hallmarks of The John Clay Wolfe Show: irreverent takes on cars, culture, and listener stories, with the recurring cast of John, JD, Bobbo, Turley, DJ PreK, and a parade of colorful callers. This week, the team relives highlights from a wild listener party, gets embroiled in an internal "wheel theft" scandal, and fieldcalls about vehicles, car-buying advice, and wry observations on race, relationships, and rural life.
John, as always, weaves car business with sharp humor and candid discussion. The show also features signature bits, improv characters, and uniquely unfiltered banter, addressing everything from intercultural jokes to lessons in closing the deal—be it cars or romance.

The episode is a boisterous blend of car dealership realism, real-life absurdities, listener-fueled content, and madcap, sometimes politically incorrect, humor. While at times the language is raw and the humor boundary-pushing, the underlying tone is one of communal good spirits—where every misadventure (romantic or criminal) is cause for a story, a roast, or a live on-air therapy session.
For car enthusiasts, blue-collar listeners, or anyone who loves a raucous, unscripted, and distinctly Texan American talk show, this episode delivers.
