Episode Overview

Main Theme:
This episode of the John Clay Wolfe Show captures the show’s signature blend of irreverent humor, automotive insights, quirky listener calls, rock & roll banter, and tales from America’s heartland and highways, punctuated by musings about California and stories from the auction world. The program weaves through segments on car sales, July 4th fireworks (and the burn bans), life observations, dubious advice, and offbeat games—all in the rowdy, fast-talking style John Clay Wolfe and his crew are known for.

Key Topics and Segments

1. Broadcast Check-Ins & Syndication Woes

Timestamps: 00:30–06:18

• The show opens with the crew troubleshooting technical difficulties, checking if their broadcast is live in various syndication cities (Dallas, Corpus Christi, Midland/Odessa, New Orleans, Baytown, etc.).
• Light-hearted ribbing about Dallas being the only city not able to get the show on air:
  John: "Dallas couldn't just get it straight." (05:44)
• Listener call-ins from across the Southwest and a running joke about "Iran, Texas."

---

2. Auction Talk: Behind the Scenes

Timestamps: 06:22–12:52

• Recap of a hectic week involving simultaneous car auction lanes (a rarity), likened to a chaotic horse race.
• Bobbo impersonates Phil (an auction character), much to the delight of the team.
• John references the expansion of his car sales business to Los Angeles, revealing the strategic differences between the Dallas and West Coast markets.

Notable Quote:
John: "The Dallas, Texas car market is the middle point… but the West Coast Highline market is… now we can start paying more for Lux cars and heavy cars, and we're gonna send them all out there…we're gonna start running another lane out in Los Angeles." (12:06–12:45)

---

3. Life in California vs. Texas

Timestamps: 10:33–12:52 / 25:28–29:05 / 71:05–76:34

• Observations on differences in lifestyle, weather, and even car culture ("G Wagons everywhere" in California).
• Nostalgia for the West Coast and a recurring theme: "Why come home?"

Memorable Moment:
John: "I see why people go to California and don't come home. If I was 22 and I had enough money, I wouldn't have come home… I'm 45, I have four children and a wife, and I don't want to come home." (25:49–26:33)

• Discussion of real estate prices in SoCal:
  John: "…in the desert, junk is a million dollars an acre because you're only like, what, an hour from the ocean?" (28:24–28:43)

Timestamps: 22:34–25:55

• The crew reminisces about July 4th celebrations, sharing disappointment at burn bans in Texas.

• Listeners call in to pitch cars; John provides live valuations and sometimes buys on the spot.
• Comedic banter about car conditions: "cotton seats" becomes an inside joke.
• Real insights into the used car market: luxury imports, trucks, and even high-mileage survivors.
• The show’s unique value proposition: Get a firm bid instantly; beat CarMax or get $100.

Notable Quote:
John: "Remember, if we do not beat your CarMax or Texas Direct written offer, we will send you a check for $100. $100. So worst case scenario, you're either going to get more for your car or you're going to get a hundred dollar bill." (09:41–10:16)

Timestamps: 53:04–58:26, 61:00–64:59, 119:04–119:13

Timestamps: 35:05–41:41

• Stories from recent classic rock concerts.
• Bobbo on buffs and blunders at big shows—like Eagles’ Timothy B. Schmidt greeting Dallas as “Houston.”

---

8. Game Segment: What Did You Buy at Walmart?

Timestamps: 39:09–48:34

• DJ Pre K introduces a new game: he buys an item late at night post-clubbing; callers must guess what it is after a series of yes/no questions.
• Prize: the actual item purchased. This time, it’s a car air freshener (a pine tree “felony forest”—a cop caller reveals that’s their code for cars hiding the smell of weed).
• Lively calls and inside jokes about both car culture and personal vices.

---

9. Rush Limbaugh Parody & Mock Political Commentary

Timestamps: 28:43–32:38

• Bobbo channels “El Rushbo” for a segment lampooning conservative talk radio, mixing political headlines (Scott Pruitt resigns from the EPA) with personal tales of Vicodin and scotch hangovers.

• On auction chaos:
  Bobbo: "So many moving parts. It's like being at the races..." (03:39)
• On musical identity:
  John, on California: "It just comes on in your head. It just happens automatically." (25:49)
• On the "Felony Forest":
  Caller/Police Officer: "We call that the felony forest... when you got 18 of them hanging from your mirror." (47:40)

You know, have you ever been in.

A double team or triple team on a horse?

[John Clay Wolf]

And I've heard a lady tell me before, she said why she didn't like to do it. You had too many people to please. I've never done it, but that's kind of how it felt.

[Bobbo]

Let's go to hs.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you went to the auction on Wednesday?

[Bobbo]

Tuesday. Tuesday, yeah. It was Tuesday this week.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's right.

[Bobbo]

There's amazing things, John. It's. I could. I could stare at that all day.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's fast paced.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, yeah. And your auctioneer is so good.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's smooth as silk.

[Bobbo]

You have the most beautiful cars.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, it's Phil. Oh, it's Phil. It's big Gay.

[Bobbo]

And I know you must be a rich and powerful man the way your cars come out. And I love a Corvette. This guy lasted about a minute and a half with me on Tuesday.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you talk to Phil?

[Bobbo]

Yes, I did.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, wow.

[Bobbo]

I did.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have any Phil Drops? Turley?

[Mike Turley]

I don't have. We have Phil right here.

[John Clay Wolf]

We need some fill drops so that people can appreciate the impersonation that Bobbo's pulling off.

[Bobbo]

Well, how would it be if your boss had one of his cars got smashed into out of the lane? He wouldn't be happy about that. Woody.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, Woody. He sounds like one of the. One of the brothers out of Canada.

[Bobbo]

It's a weird statement. It's like one of the McKenzie brothers. He. That was Dad's donut money. And here's the weird thing, okay? Phil didn't realize that we actually do a program these times that he's called in. He must have seen the number pasted on the booth or something, you know, on the block at auction. Because he said, do you guys really do a program on the radio like. Like Howard Stern? I said, yeah, we do a program on the radio. He goes, well, I don't have A radio. I said, that is your fault, Phil. And I was done with Phil, you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Know, so he thought he was just calling in to talk.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, but he did come back later and knock off one of your drivers. He goes. One of your drivers? The guy with the straw hat. He's driving like a maniac. You were cars. He nearly hit a guy.

[John Clay Wolf]

Corey, good morning. Is it working?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir. I'm here in Dallas with 92.5 Lone Star.

[John Clay Wolf]

92.5 Lone Star. Corey, you ought to send him a bill. That's a hell of an intro. I'm not gonna pay him.

[Bobbo]

Lone star.

[John Clay Wolf]

92.5 big K. Phil, where did I get that? Big Gay. I think I call Calvin Big Gay. Calvin Big Gay. It's a movie character. Big Gay.

[Mike Turley]

Big Gay Al from South Park.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's it. It's Big Gay out.

[Bobbo]

Big Gay.

[John Clay Wolf]

And that's why I say Big Gay Cow. One of our managers names Calvin. I call him Big Gay Cal. And it has nothing to do with his sexual preference. It's just. It just slides off the tongue so easily. No, no pun. Big Gay Cal. Big Gay Al from South Park. Big Gay Al. Now, who was Big Gay Al in South Park? He was. Was he a teacher?

[Bobbo]

Well, he was big and. And not that there's anything wrong with it, but he was gay and his name was Al.

[Caller/Listener]

I don't remember.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. Who's this?

[Caller/Listener]

What's up, David? Oklahoma City. You guys are loud and clear.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oklahoma City. It's working loud and clear now.

[Mike Turley]

Can they keep it right now?

[John Clay Wolf]

David, I could tell you that Oklahoma's had a programming problem where the music keeps blurring over us during late in the show. And if that happens, call me back and let me know because I've got a bus bust balls on that.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay, well, the answering machine answered several times and.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, 800-800-7234. If you'd like to sell your car. The answering machine is not what I was questioning about. If you'd like to sell us your car. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Just go to givemetheven.com Remember, if we do not beat your CarMax or Texas Direct written offer, we will send you a check for $100. $100. So worst case scenario, you're either going to get more for your car or you're going to get a hundred dollar bill.

[Bobbo]

Man, that would certainly accentuate the whiskey budget this week.

[John Clay Wolf]

I have an announcement to make in the. In the. In the nine or ten o' clock hour.

[Caller/Listener]

Today.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, yeah? Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Good morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm Gail. I'm leaving all you bastards and moving to California.

[Bobbo]

Oh, yeah? Good trip?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

How'd you get out there? Did you drive out there?

[John Clay Wolf]

Just gone. Yeah, I rode a bike just like dumb and dmer. Awesome on a. It was a Cushman. It wasn't a Cushman. It was a little mini bike with five start. A pull start. Yeah. Don't get me started with this. You start feeling. Dude, that PCH highway. Have you been out there, Bob? You were San Diego the other day.

[Bobbo]

I. I was in San Diego earlier this year. I went 2006 to west of LA, to the Chumash Valley wine country and all. Drove all the way to Lone Poke man, to Jim Morrison's favorite record store, Morning Glory Music.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it still open?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, it's still out there. Went out to the ocean and. Yeah, I love that part of the world. It's. I really didn't want to come back. It's Dutch country out there. There's all the windmills and stuff. Your wife would love it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Your wife would feel like she's right at home. No, no, my wife's from Copenhagen, Denmark. She's not an Amsterdam pothead.

[Bobbo]

Right, right. They're Norwegians.

[John Clay Wolf]

But there's Dutch. You're not Norwegian, You.

[Bobbo]

Sorry, it's a line from the thing.

[John Clay Wolf]

They're Norwegian. Norwegians are Norwegian.

[Bobbo]

You're really worried about those Dutch, aren't you? They're Norwegian, Hawk.

[John Clay Wolf]

I've never been to Amsterdam.

[Bobbo]

If you go to Solvang, California. Yeah, it's just west of Santa Barbara. It's all like little old world European village. It's like a little Christmas village. Know, they're all pointy chalet roofs and. And red and gold buildings and. It's beautiful.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bobo's stoned. It's beautiful. It is nice. No, it's great. I mean, it's going to be a part of our. And the neat part, the.

[Norman]

The.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, we bring the Texas market, car market to a lot of these. The Dallas, Texas car market is the middle point.

[Bobbo]

Right. It's.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's the nucleus. They bring more here than anywhere but the West Coast Highline market is. Is that. So now we can start paying more for Lux cars and heavy cars, and we're gonna send them all out there, but, yeah, we're gonna start running another lane out in Los Angeles. I spent a couple of days out there with those guys getting set up. So what you saw in Dallas last Tuesday. Yeah. The two lanes running side by side. You're gonna see that in Los Angeles. Two lanes, probably in a year.

[Bobbo]

Wow.

[John Clay Wolf]

But the one lane will be in the fall, more than likely. I agree it's going to be crazy.

[Bobbo]

We like crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

But I'm going to work on my surfing car. Surfing, yeah.

[Bobbo]

Very cool.

[John Clay Wolf]

My wife said yesterday. You know, I don't know if this is real, but I've noticed a lot of people around here with one limb missing.

[Bobbo]

Huh.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are those sharks really biting them off?

[Bobbo]

It could be cartel business.

[Mike Turley]

Maybe that's where the Greek guys at feels at home.

[John Clay Wolf]

And Pete the Greek is missing. I want a picture of his leg. None of my listeners have successively found Pete the Greek and sent me a picture in a location yet. I need Pete the Greek, last seen in Granbury, Texas, painting people's homes. And for those of y' all who aren't aware of what that is, and you haven't been around the show long enough, you need to tune in, stick around. But. And if you send me a picture Pete the Greek with his artificial leg, I'll send you a hundred dollar bill. And if you send me a CarMax offer that I can't beat and a picture of Pete the Creek's artificial leg, I'll send you two hundred dollar bills.

[Bobbo]

That's the other bit. I'm shocked by it. We haven't. You haven't been a car yet on the program.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's, that's. We'll get to it, man. It's all a good time. I've seen some people in here, but I haven't seen any cars worthy of our air.

[Bobbo]

Oh, oh, is the true.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, you know, M BMWs, cowboy Cadillacs, big, pretty stuff. Rolls Royce, nice SS, Camaro, Corvettes, Jeep Wranglers, but, you know, an 06 Sentra with a buck 80 on it. Ooh, it's $300. And I hate hurting people's feelings and tell them they have a $300 car because they lied to somebody and said it was worth more than that. Good morning, you're on the air.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, this is Chris calling you back from Wiley. He said call back. If I'm hearing music over you guys and I'm hearing freaking Beach Boys over you guys.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, thank you, Chris from Wiley. Chris from Wiley has figured it out and the program director's lost his damn mind. He's playing the Beach Boys. What the hell is wrong with people? We'll be right back. I'm gonna figure all this out during the break. Oh, yeah, we're back.

[Announcer]

Back to the John Clay Wolf show.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can't tell you about a pretty bad breakup I had in second grade.

[Announcer]

Presented by givemethevin.com Women change once they.

[John Clay Wolf]

Get the plastic ring on him. If I fell off, I couldn't work in the lemonade stand. She'd be like, where are you, baby?

[Announcer]

Presented by givemethevin.com then I come to.

[John Clay Wolf]

Find out she got cooties from another guy.

[Announcer]

This is the John Clay Wolf Show.

[John Clay Wolf]

800-800-7 2, 3, 4. Good morning. You're on the air with me. Sad McKinney. Sad like Theodore.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, pretty close.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like the guy that was the. He was in All My Children. You remember him? That's right.

[Caller/Listener]

My spaddy.

[Mike Turley]

All My Children. What are you watching?

[John Clay Wolf]

This is a while back, man. Me and my stepmom used to. She was hot. We used to sit down in the afternoons, watch All My Children. I was just, you know, for about 10 years, I was trying to think of when I was going to make my move. Dad was at work. I was sitting there with my stepmom. She's in her robe or watching All My Children. I think I should have gone for it. Turley, man, I don't know. Yeah, but see, she wouldn't wear any undergarments. So she'd lean over and you get. I mean, it was like too much going. I mean, I was like. I was like 17 years old, like wanting to be doing other things, but I was hanging out with my stepmom, watching All My Children. Stepmom, if you're out there and you're. I know you listen sometimes. Give me a call and tell me what would have happened if I'd have gone for it, you know? Let's run the replay tape. 800, 800, 7, 2, 3, 4.

[Bobbo]

You had a magical life, dude.

[John Clay Wolf]

808. I'll never tell you about the day that we built that bed together. That was weird. She was in a robe. Anyway. Hey. What? What have you got, dad?

[Caller/Listener]

I've got a 2013 Mercedes Benz SLK.

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you owe on it?

[Caller/Listener]

Nothing.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's good.

[Caller/Listener]

How many miles are on my father in law's car? What's weird is this is my mother in law's car and you've made this kind of weird. Talking about your mother in law?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, the stepmother. Stepmother. Stepmother. Stepmother. Completely different.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay, good.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, that's very different.

[Caller/Listener]

I see.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'd say mother in law would be less weird than stepmother. Right.

[Bobbo]

One will get you kicked out, the other will get you killed. Right, Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. So you and your. You and your mother in law, you're Helping your mother in law.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm helping. No, I'm helping my father in law sell her car.

[John Clay Wolf]

How many years between you and your mother in law? I don't know. Yeah, you do.

[Caller/Listener]

Plenty.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's nothing. Hey, there's, there's not that many between mine, me and mine, man.

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, that's right, isn't it?

[John Clay Wolf]

When we checked into this house in California, the lady's like, you sure are a young wife. I had to hear about that all week. I'm a young wife. I'm a young wife. Like, he ain't that young. She just old. She's wore out.

[Mike Turley]

Old cow, Cali, that's like the norm.

Nineteen. Twenty grand.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay. All right, so I, I don't have any pictures. I'm loading it up at my computer. I don't.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's fine. And we do it all day long. You could just FaceTime us the, the car we did. Charlie, didn't you say we did one like that yesterday?

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, kickass Suburban. Actually, the, the customer was at CarMax, walking out, and she called our sales associate and he's like, well, I, I, we're not selling.

[John Clay Wolf]

Excuse me?

[Mike Turley]

Buyer, Right? And we're not selling anything. The buyer could.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's the Jew in him, Bob. I'm telling you, he's a Jew. He can't stop selling.

[Mike Turley]

That's right. The buyer said, well, can you send me pictures? Like, well, I don't know how to do that, but I can. FaceTime it's like, great, let's do that. FaceTime did the whole walk through around the car, showed me the offer from CarMax, and there was a Texas direct one also. So you know what? We'll be both beat both by 500 bucks.

[Norman]

No problem.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's like the old bull and the young bull. Yeah, you know that story?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

The young bull says, let's, let's jump the fence and rape a heifer.

[Bobbo]

Let's run down there and get one.

[John Clay Wolf]

And the old bull says, let's use the gate and screw them all.

[Bobbo]

Let's walk down there and get them all.

[John Clay Wolf]

FaceTime is, is the gate.

[Bobbo]

I can't believe that that's crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

What's crazy?

[Bobbo]

You can. You can do a deal on FaceTime.

[Mike Turley]

Oh, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wow, Bob, you bought. You bought love off FaceTime.

[Bobbo]

I'm not in that line of work, though. The cars. I'm still amazed by the car thing. Occasionally Turley can tell you you're.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're not just yucking it up.

[Bobbo]

You're actually, I. I get knocked right off of my chair sometimes. Seeing what goes on, how it goes, you know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, all the cars we buy.

[Bobbo]

Cuz I'm up here all day. I mean, how often do you see me during the day, Turley?

[John Clay Wolf]

Twice. Twice.

[Bobbo]

Day, maybe.

[Mike Turley]

Yeah. At least.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right on, right on cue, actually.

[Mike Turley]

Morning. Right at the beginning of the morning, when starting my day, Bob comes through.

[John Clay Wolf]

There with a reason to see everybody, which is fine. You know, Bobbo needs love too. Bobbo's like, you know, we were out in California last weekend. G Wagons. G Wagons everywhere. Really? I mean, dude, I've never seen so many G Wagons.

[Bobbo]

What is a G Wagon?

[John Clay Wolf]

It's a boxy, square Mercedes suv.

[Bobbo]

Okay, okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I was like, man, the Kardashians did a hell of a job on the G Wagon. And we. Something else came up with the Kardashian this, Kardashian that. Nolan finally said, what is a Kardashian? And where do I get one? Like, well, first of all, sudden you need to be an African American.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

If you want to have one to keep. If you want one to keep. 800. 800. Oh, DJ. You didn't like that? He looked like he took offense. Good morning, DJ Pre K. Oh, man.

[DJ Pre K]

You can't be talking about my people like that, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who, the Kardashians?

[DJ Pre K]

Yeah, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, there's not one of them that's. That's with a white boy. Well, not one of them.

[DJ Pre K]

I think they've tried, you know, they.

[John Clay Wolf]

They turned the only white boy into a transvestite. That's some pressure. Pressure in that household. Only white boy in that deal cratered and turned into a girl.

[DJ Pre K]

It's a messed up world, man. A booty like that'll make you do strange things.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. You're on the air. Hello. Oh, that's a good connection we got there, Randy. The Chipmunks coming up. Rush Limbaugh's coming up. All kinds of stuff's coming up. We got four hours of this crap to come up with stuff. So you need to hang on.

[John Clay Wolf]

The $48.

[Mike Turley]

Man, it sucked here in Texas for the 4th of July, especially in Parker County. John.

[John Clay Wolf]

It was the burn.

[Caller/Listener]

Burn band.

[Mike Turley]

Yes.

[Bobbo]

Oh, no.

[Mike Turley]

I went to the firecracker store and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning, Mike Turley.

[Mike Turley]

Saved $900, spent 300. But save $900 on fireworks.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why? Cuz it was discount. Yeah, they're always.

[Mike Turley]

It's like a vortex. You ever been into a fireworks store?

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure. Oh, God.

[Mike Turley]

It's like.

[Bobbo]

It's awesome.

[Mike Turley]

You walk in, it's like five, three.

[John Clay Wolf]

You still want my wife shopping? I saved. I saved 75%. I don't care what you saved, what you spend. How much did you spend, honey? No, it was 75% after the 60%.

[Bobbo]

Right? I don't.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so they. They had an overmarked. So what did we spend? So you spent 300?

[Mike Turley]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good for you.

[Mike Turley]

But walk out of the store, get a text from my wife, hey, there's a burn ban now in Parker County. Just literally walked out of the store. So couldn't light any fireworks.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sucked. You smoke grass?

[Mike Turley]

No, No, I didn't smoke grass.

[John Clay Wolf]

What'd you do?

[Mike Turley]

We did sparklers.

[John Clay Wolf]

What'd you do with all the fireworks? Where are the fireworks?

[Mike Turley]

I've got them still. I'm waiting for the burn band to go away.

[John Clay Wolf]

Let's set them off in the studio.

[Mike Turley]

I got a lot of those for.

[John Clay Wolf]

No way right now.

[Mike Turley]

These are. These are mortars, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

I don'.

[Mike Turley]

We don't want that.

[Bobbo]

Oh, you got aerial shots.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have any. Do you have any on you? Do you have them in the car? I'll light them up in here right now. Yeah. Hell yeah.

[Mike Turley]

That's a terrible idea. Carry fireworks in a car.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why? We're 100°. Carry them. It's not like they spontaneously combust.

[Bobbo]

You can't carry fireworks in a car.

[Mike Turley]

When it's 100 degree and just leave it out there. That's not smart.

[Bobbo]

Well, you wouldn't leave them out there. Yeah, that's.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have any fireworks in your car at all?

[Mike Turley]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do not give any firearms now. I'm just wanting to see something. Go on.

[Caller/Listener]

You want to see some?

[Bobbo]

Boom.

[John Clay Wolf]

800. 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800. Radio. If you want to sell me your car, give me year, make, model, miles. Average, rougher, clean. Year, make, model, miles. We'll come to your house and pick it up. I'll make the deal right here on the radio. And you can load it up on Give me the VI N. Give me the vin. Give me the vin. Give in dot com. Not the Vino. Not a wine shop. Give me the VIN dot com. And you can put in your VIN number or just your license plate. If we don't beat your CarMax offer, we'll send you check for a hundred dollars. Same goes for Texas Direct.

[Bobbo]

Man, I miss those days.

[John Clay Wolf]

We're in so many cities that don't. I probably need. This is Houston.

[Bobbo]

Y' all are so lucky to still have children hanging around. Right. Because, like, I've got no excuse as a grown man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Living alone. I've got no excuse to go and blow things up on the 4th of July. Really. You know, I mean, I could step outside, and from my place, John, I saw two aerial displays. You know, the city of Fort Worth, and then I think the botanical garden or somewhere. I mean, you know, it's beautiful. It's great to see, but there's nothing like, you know, your boy's 10 years old and you're showing them how to light a punk, you know, and hold it up against that. And I run, you know, get out of the way. So firecrackers are a lot of fun.

[John Clay Wolf]

We watch fireworks at a place called. Shoot. What's it called? It's off a PA pch. Yeah, Paradise Cove. Oh, Paradise Cove. It's like a restaurant, a beach, and it's where the Beach Boys shot the Surfing USA album cover.

[DJ Pre K]

Oh, really?

[Bobbo]

Wow.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right there. We're gonna do this all day long, dude. I'm telling you, when you're out there driving on that road and looking at those waves and those surfers and everything going on, this. This just comes on in your head. It just happens automatically. Hey, dude. And McKinney. We're at the. The program director's playing the Beach Boys over us again. Call him. Call them and fix it. But now, really, I mean, you get it. You see where all this came from? And all the stupid movies in the. In the Annette Funicello and the. I see why people go to California and don't come home. If I was 22 and I had enough money, I wouldn't have come home. Why come home? Why come home? I'm 45, I have four children and a wife, and I don't want to Come home.

[Bobbo]

My future son in law and I were scheming on that when we were in San Diego back in March. We're like, man, it wouldn't. It wouldn't be hard to go looking for a place to rent out here. You know, I could work at that dispensary. He's like, I could work at that dispensary.

[John Clay Wolf]

You could be a liberal. Just give me. Give me a minute.

[Bobbo]

Sign me up. You bet. Seafood every day. Yeah. Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's just that freaking weather. It's amazing. What weather? How the right temperature will. How human beings will react to the proper temperature. That is the proper temperature. Yeah. Out there. 78 degrees. It makes great things happen.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Lots of production. 800, 800, 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800. It's a lot of Texas plates out there, too.

[Bobbo]

Did you really?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. That's weird.

[Bobbo]

Everybody's doing.

[John Clay Wolf]

They've got these new California license plates that are black and gold. Just black with the gold letters. It looks like something out of the 50s. I saw a lot of those that look good, simple. Not all, you know, geeked out.

[Bobbo]

Outstanding.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

We didn't even see the. The northern part of the. Of the place. I saw enough is what's crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

I saw enough. I mean, I. I've seen enough. I drove to San Bernardinito. Is kind of a. It ain't what I thought it was. No, is S S, S, S, Yeah. Black hole. Yeah. It's not that nice. Or the. The home side of the original McDonald's is. There's a reason that. That anyway, but where. Where the car auctions are are down there in San Bernardinito, Riverside, Fontana. And you know, it's great if you have a dune buggy you want to run across the desert, but it makes sense because the real estate's cheaper down there. It's junk. It's desert. They said it's still a million dollars an acre for commercial land down there.

[Bobbo]

Really?

[John Clay Wolf]

How the hell does that work? How the hell is, like up in Louisville, it's, you know, 350,000 an acre. Over there in the desert, junk is a million dollars an acre because you're.

[Mike Turley]

Only like, what, an hour from the ocean? That's. I mean, that's the only thing I can think of.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can't think of anything that makes the whole thing makes no sense. Rush Limbaugh, good morning. What the hell are you doing? John? Yes.

[Bobbo]

Welcome back from Hollyweird.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you.

[Bobbo]

Heard you had a little vacation this week.

[John Clay Wolf]

A work vacation. I have not two days of Vacay and two days of work I have not.

[Bobbo]

Looked. It's a funny thing, having that day off in the middle of the week. It just. It just kills me every time. You know, a lot of, you know, the trick or treatment.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's like skipping your period. It makes you feel like you're missing something.

[Bobbo]

It feels somewhat like that. You know, it's like that mind all fix anything. I get out of my bed on Thursday morning. After the firework displays and wonderful patriotism nationwide. I think we got. I'm pretty sure we actually stopped talking about politics for about a half hour about 9:45 Wednesday night, Fourth of July. Got out of my bed on Thursday and immediately was feeling all those Vicodins I had the night before. I never get this, you know, trick or treat night.

[John Clay Wolf]

Vicodin hangover.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, we ever had that rush.

[John Clay Wolf]

You and I have been doing this together on Saturday mornings for years. And I've never heard you complain about a Vicodin hangover.

[Bobbo]

It's the funniest thing it could have been. I'll tell you this. I actually drank a lot of scotch on Wednesday evening. You think that could have anything to do with it? Usually I can handle my scotch.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, Vikes should straighten you out, not bring you. They should cut masks. The hangover.

[Bobbo]

I absolutely agree. I think the fireworks are beginning to edge me out a little bit. All the gun violence in the country and everybody's talking about it. Every time one of those suckers blows, I think, wow, what was that? It's like a shell shock kind of thing. I've been awfully nervous lately, you know, trick or treat night around Halloween time. They always switch that to the Saturday nearest before Halloween. And we don't get thrown so off kilter by what's going on. Listen to this. The Environmental Protection Agency's chair, the Honorable Scott Pruitt of Oklahoma, stepped down on Friday. Quit the job. He's unsheveled, too. We're all so disheveled. Tell you the truth, I'm worried. I'm staying home. I'm gonna drink scotch all weekend long. I'm gonna lay off with the Vicodins. I wish I could find my friend Kid Rock, get a little grass, you know? Did you see any grass in California?

[John Clay Wolf]

I did not, no. No mota. No mota. I'm sure there would. I smelled it, though. I smelled it on the piers.

[Bobbo]

I'm gonna ask my boss, Beaches.

[John Clay Wolf]

I smelled it at the grocery store. Not like just side stream, not. Not like off the clothes. I mean, a good Like, I think I got a little hit. I think I look, you know the good smell where you're like, oh, I think I've got something.

[Bobbo]

A contact high.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[Bobbo]

What a fine glow that is.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good old fashioned contact.

[Bobbo]

I went to the Kiss concert last year here in Orlando. Yeah, I think I got a little contact high myself. It was a wonderful time. It could have been the Percocet I had for lunch. I'm going to go out to California. I'm going to ask my boss for a little time off this month and go out and see if I can find us some grass out there.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay?

[Bobbo]

You can trust your friend El Rush Wall to make the contact and we'll also trick or treating and have a wonderful time. Where's J.D.

[John Clay Wolf]

He'S just not here today. He's in, he's, he's on vacation this week. We could talk about him now.

[Bobbo]

He takes more vacations than any grown man I've ever known. Except for Hannity. Hannity and Dave Letterman. They were like the kings of vacation time. I'm gonna take more time off. I'm too nervous. Look at me shake. And we'll give it back to you from here behind the golden microphone of the excellence in broadcasting.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you Rush Limbaugh.

[Bobbo]

Talent on loan from God.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bob, that guy, he's a nut bag. He's a different person with us than he is on his own show. Hey, he really is Sam in Oklahoma. An 09 Hyundai Sonata with 105, 000 miles. Is it a four cylinder six?

[Caller/Listener]

It is.

[John Clay Wolf]

I believe it's a four cylinder GL or GLS. Or is it leather or is it SE.

[Caller/Listener]

I? It's actually cotton seats. I don't know about the Etsy Earth and all that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you just say cotton seats?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

They'Re cotton seeds.

[Bobbo]

Is that possible?

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, I mean, I mean they could. Yeah, they're cotton.

[Bobbo]

Hey, this is a designer thing.

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you owe on this thing?

[Caller/Listener]

I bought it all at one time. I saved up $10,000 and bought it in a year.

[John Clay Wolf]

How long ago?

[Caller/Listener]

Just last year.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wow. Well, you, you're gonna take a little haircut, cotton boy. I'm a $3,500 buyer. I'm gonna hang up on you before you throw a bale of cotton at me. 100. I hope it had 50,000 miles on it when he bought it for 10 G's.

[Bobbo]

With a story like that, I would think the joy of ownership would still be, you know, relevant. Selling it already, cotton seats and all. Come on, take it around the block again.

[Norman]

Man.

[Bobbo]

Go to Sonic, get you a milkshake.

[John Clay Wolf]

Goat Boy. Goat Boy, come here. Go, boy. What do. Do you like cotton seeds?

[Bobbo]

Oh, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you chew on them or do you like.

[Bobbo]

Delicious.

[John Clay Wolf]

They're delicious.

[Bobbo]

It tastes great.

[John Clay Wolf]

What have you been up to?

[Bobbo]

If you can't find some cotton seeds, I'll eat the leather. Oh, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Go boy. Can you take us out? We've got five seconds.

[Bobbo]

Don't go away. The John Clay Wolf show will be right back.

[Mike Turley]

Remember when the ice cream man used.

[Caller/Listener]

To come to town when you was.

[John Clay Wolf]

Little and no matter what you was.

[Bobbo]

Doing, you would stop and lose your mind?

[Announcer]

Broadcasting live from the Wolf radio station studios, it's time for the John Clay Wolf show, presented by givemetheven.com hit him up now. 800, 800 radio. Now John Clay Wolf looking for the good.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is this the Don Henley?

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is this Eagles or Don Henley?

[Bobbo]

Eagles from the long run.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you notice at the Eagles concert the other night, Bobbo, that Timothy B. Schmidt is like.

[Norman]

Good night.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hello, Houston.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you hear that?

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hello, Houston. So for those of you all, who the. The. Is he a bass player? I know he's the high pitched. Yeah, yeah, Soprano, Whatever. A member of the Eagles introduced himself to the crowd in Dallas and said, hello, Houston.

[Caller/Listener]

Right.

[Bobbo]

I think they had played Houston the night before.

[John Clay Wolf]

Not the night before, like a week before, was it? Yeah, yeah, like keep doing drugs, dude, and let those managers keep bleeding you out off of all your money.

[Bobbo]

Yeah. And it's weird because Tim Schmidt is like the most clean.

[John Clay Wolf]

Look at what happened to Michael Jackson.

[Bobbo]

Right, right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Keep him pilled up. Hello, Good night, Vegas. What? Why are you shaking your head? Oh, nothing. Just. Hello, Houston. I don't know where I am, boss. Just tell me. Sure, take whatever you want. Yeah, I'll sign that, I'll sign that. You may sign that again. Initial here, initial here. Sure. I don't know why I'm broke. Hello, Houston.

[Bobbo]

That's why Joe Walsh doesn't play that man, you know.

[John Clay Wolf]

8008-0072-3480-0800 radio.

[Bobbo]

Who did we see?

[John Clay Wolf]

RVs and motorcycles? We buy those two at givemetheven.com the big class A, Class B, Class C motorhomes, Harley's crotch rockets, ATVs. I wanted to plug that. We have our own RV people and our own motorcycle people that we push your information to that are specialists and we do that and come pick them up. What we saying?

[Bobbo]

I'm trying to think of them. We saw a band recently and they said Dallas every time the guy talked.

[John Clay Wolf]

Dallas.

[Bobbo]

Dallas, Dallas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tesla.

[Bobbo]

Tesla.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. That. My. My daughter said that the singer from Tesla looked like her Nana.

[Bobbo]

I tell you what, though, I'm a. I'm a. I'm convinced, Okay? I have rediscovered Tesla. They were so badass live. I was not prepared for that.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's too bad how a band that opens for the headliner in the. In the light.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you go to the show, right? And whoever's in the sunlight just doesn't even have half the punch that the guys in the dark. Oh, man, it's like the guys. If there's light on them, sunlight, daylight. You feel like you're at the May Fest Festival watching a side stage with a bunch of yahoos.

[Bobbo]

People walking around.

[John Clay Wolf]

They came in from out of town that, like, the. The local ballerina and tap dance act was in front of them.

[Bobbo]

It's a shame.

[John Clay Wolf]

It is a shame.

[Bobbo]

I always wonder if. If that's difficult when you're on stage. You know, you're the opening act. People are still coming.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're at the big venue. Right. But it's still daylight outside. Who did I see the other day? I forgot. But, I mean, it was a great act as a big name. And they were in the daylight, like, oh, they suck.

[Bobbo]

Really? It's kind of like that.

[John Clay Wolf]

They sucked compared to those other guys, you know? Yeah. Because the other guys were at night, after everybody's all whiskeyed up. The big hit at the end.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who played before Chicago the other night?

[Bobbo]

REO Speedwagon.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, they sucked.

[Bobbo]

Did they really?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, they were great. But. But it sucked because it was daylight. Nobody's buzzing, nobody's in. It's just. It's just like watching a band play it at the lake, you know?

[Bobbo]

It's kind of different, though.

[John Clay Wolf]

Augie's burger Joint.

[Bobbo]

Like, the Doobies opened for Steely Dan last time, and that was during the daylight at, you know, at Starplex. I didn't know it was Toyota music at an outdoor venue.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Were they as good as they would have been?

[Bobbo]

It was badass. People were just sitting on the lawn, rocking, grooving. Man, but it was all drugs.

[John Clay Wolf]

See, when people are doing drugs, it doesn't count, because that's different.

[Bobbo]

No, but that show, I. I went by my damn self.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

And didn't drink a drop of alcohol.

[John Clay Wolf]

But you did a peyote deal.

[Bobbo]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's what you told me on Fair. Stop it.

[Bobbo]

No smoke. Totally clean. And it was. The Doobies were groovy in the broad daylight. Some bands can do it. Not Every band can do that.

[John Clay Wolf]

So, DJ Prek, Good morning. What is this new? What? What's this new bit we got going here?

[DJ Pre K]

Oh, man, you know, it's. It's just a little something new, you know, I figured I'd play a little game, you know, I've been doing my shopping, you know, as a player does, but, you know, around 3:00am is, you know, when the club lets out and everything. I take my trip to Walmart, get a little something, and I just want to see if y' all can guess what I buy.

[Bobbo]

You know, John, that, that must mean it's time to play our brand new game.

[John Clay Wolf]

What you get? Hey, Pre K, what you get? Play that again. Turn it up. I like that. Hey, Prek, what'd you get? Okay, so the, the backdrop is club is closed, it's after hours. You go into Walmart.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you bought an item and we have to guess what it is.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, stop, stop, stop. Everybody call in right now that wants to play this game. It's kind of like Scatteries is my understanding. 800, 800 radio. 800, 800, 7234. And we all get to ask one question, correct?

[DJ Pre K]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

And then we drill it down and the person who gets it wins.

[Bobbo]

Okay, but we do get one hint because he tells us exactly what he paid for the price, the Walmart price.

[John Clay Wolf]

And the winner gets the item.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, whatever he bought. Whoever guesses what. What?

[John Clay Wolf]

Pre K, go ahead and call in now and get on hold and you can hear us while you're on hold. What's going on? 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio.

[Bobbo]

I can't wait to see what. It's 3 in the morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Pre K. So how do we start this?

[Bobbo]

Well, first he's got to tell us what he paid for.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. What this thing cost.

[DJ Pre K]

Oh, well, I'm give y', all, I'm break it down for y', all, man. I'm gonna give you all the total before tax. Okay, So I was balling on a budget last night. You know, I spent all my money at the Plugs House and, and at the club. So I didn't spend too much money. But it's about $2 and 43 cents, man.

[Mike Turley]

243 at 3 in the morning at a Walmart?

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[Mike Turley]

Something for 243.

[John Clay Wolf]

243. Is that with tax or without?

[DJ Pre K]

That's without tax, man. But hey, I needed it, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Three in the morning? Oh, I know.

[Bobbo]

It was 2:43.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, I don't want to ruin it.

[Bobbo]

Here's how it works. We all get to ask one yes or no question, and then we get one guess.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, let's grab this guy right now. Good morning. You're on the air. Are you there? It's you. It's you. I grabbed you first. I hung up. Next one. Good morning. I'm grabbing you next. We didn't scream. Yeah, okay. He got baking soda, he got bacon soda. But you need to ask him a question. You can ask him a question right to the guest, and he can answer it, and that'll drill it down. So what's your question? You're going to start this.

[Caller/Listener]

He bought the bacon sodas for his crotch, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, no, no, no, no. You, what's your name and where do you live?

[Caller/Listener]

I'm Bill. New Orleans.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're what? Who?

[Mike Turley]

Bill.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bill in New Orleans. Okay, Bill, ask DJ a question about what he bought and then the answer will help us be specific of what it was.

[Caller/Listener]

What did you do with the baking soda that you bought?

[DJ Pre K]

Man, that's for me to know and for the police to never find out, man.

[Mike Turley]

I have a feeling a lot of people are just guess what it is.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Good morning. Good. Good morning. You're on the air. Hey, it's you.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, he bought some Black and Miles.

[John Clay Wolf]

But you gotta ask him. Ask him a question. It's not just guessing that quick. So you can ask.

[Caller/Listener]

Sorry about that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ask. You ask him if they're black and Miles. You can ask them at what department, or do you smoke it or what do you do with it?

[Caller/Listener]

Okay. Did you buy it in your smoking department?

[DJ Pre K]

No, I didn't buy it in the smoking department, man. I had all my smoking accessories already planned out.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right. Good morning. Oh, lost them.

[Bobbo]

Not tobacco.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good morning. You're on the air.

[Mike Turley]

Not to back.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hello?

[Mike Turley]

[John Clay Wolf]

Hello? It's you. It's you, it's you, it's you. Hey, I hear you on speaker. I gotta hang up on you now. Here's the next one. Good morning. It's you. Yes, you. Hey. Hey. So ask him a question of what he bought. You can't say what did you buy? But let's get closer to the answer and see if we can pull this off.

[Bobbo]

$2.43.

[John Clay Wolf]

Where are you from?

[Caller/Listener]

Richmond.

[John Clay Wolf]

Richmond, Virginia.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, no, Texas.

Oh, Texas. Okay, go ahead. Pre K. It's you and Richmond. Richmond. Ask him.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, man, was there anything frozen?

[DJ Pre K]

Frozen? Nah, man. The only thing frozen is my pinky ring.

[John Clay Wolf]

Man, wearing that eyes okay, so now I'm gonna ask a question. Well, first of all, Turley, why do they keep saying baking soda? I don't know. Do you know why they're saying baking soda pregame? Do you know why?

[Caller/Listener]

I know why.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why?

[DJ Pre K]

It's a main ingredient in a. In a good recipe, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good meth?

[DJ Pre K]

Not quite meth.

[John Clay Wolf]

What?

[DJ Pre K]

You know, you take a little bit of that white baking soda powder, mix it up with another white powder, and you cook it up a little bit. You get you a nice rock, man. Get you a nice cookie.

[Bobbo]

Don't try this at home, kids.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. So, dj, I'm gonna ask you a question. Was it. Is it something that you lose use for making love?

[DJ Pre K]

Nah, man, I'm. That night was a little bit slow on the action.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, Turley, so it's not condoms, obviously. Nope.

[Mike Turley]

Is it something you eat?

[DJ Pre K]

It's not nothing you eat, really, Boba?

[Bobbo]

Well, that's what I was gonna ask. Did it come from the Health and.

[John Clay Wolf]

Needed it.

[DJ Pre K]

Well, I might not have needed it that bad, but, you know, it. It helped me out.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hang on. We'll go back to the callers. Good morning. You're on there. Where are you from?

[Caller/Listener]

Emory, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ask him a question. Let's figure this out.

[Caller/Listener]

[John Clay Wolf]

No, you're wrong. Good morning. You're on the. Good morning. You're on the air. Ask him where. Where you from?

[Caller/Listener]

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, let's. Let's see if you can help us. Ask him. Started out with. Dear DJ Prek.

[Caller/Listener]

Dear DJ Prek, can you fit this in a hand basket?

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[DJ Pre K]

You could fit a bunch of them in a hand basket.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you want to go for the guess?

[Caller/Listener]

I'm going to. Go ahead and. Let me.

[Norman]

Let me.

[Caller/Listener]

Let me get one. Let me ask one more question. Let's go with. Can you hold this in your hand? Palm of your hand.

[DJ Pre K]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Bobbo]

You.

[DJ Pre K]

You could hold this in the palm of your hand, man. One package of them.

[Bobbo]

Huh?

[John Clay Wolf]

What? One more time.

[Caller/Listener]

Alka Seltzer.

[John Clay Wolf]

Dj.

[DJ Pre K]

Nope, that's not it, man. No Alka Seltzer for your boy.

[John Clay Wolf]

But, dj, is it in the medical vein?

[DJ Pre K]

It's not, man. Yeah, yeah. I'll give y' all him, man. Y' all might want to start, you know, guessing some more departments. I'll tell you, it's a department that's close to our hearts.

[Mike Turley]

Our hearts.

[John Clay Wolf]

Palm of your hand.

[Bobbo]

Electronics.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, is it. Is it. Was it. Is it like, heartburn medicine?

[DJ Pre K]

Nah, man. You know what? I might have led y' all astray with the close to our hearts. Think more of what. What business we're in, man.

[Mike Turley]

Did you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, he needed some with his car. Okay, hang on, caller. You're on. Good morning. Who's this? Where are you from?

[Caller/Listener]

Ben from Oklahoma.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ben from Oklahoma. I think it's car related, so you can ask the next one.

[Bobbo]

2.43.

[John Clay Wolf]

2.43. Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Is it. Does it have an odor to it?

[DJ Pre K]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Real nice soda.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

Is it one of them pine trees you hang from the rearview mirror?

[John Clay Wolf]

You know it, baby. The felony trees, baby.

[Norman]

Damn.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, where are you from? Oklahoma.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I'm from Oklahoma.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, guess what? You win. I'll put you on hold, and you will get it in the. In the mail from Pre K. Hang on.

[Bobbo]

You just won yourself a new air freshener.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do what now?

[Caller/Listener]

Let me let you know how I knew that.

[John Clay Wolf]

How?

[Caller/Listener]

I'm a police officer, and we call that the felony forest.

[Bobbo]

You're looking for those things?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, I mean, if somebody has a pine tree air freshener hanging from the rearview mirror, they got weed on them. It's just the bottom line.

[Bobbo]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, it's not. Is it just weed, or is it more than weed? I mean, do you think they. I mean, you call it felony, so it means it. Is it in the police force? What does that give away?

[Caller/Listener]

The giveaway is when you got 18 of them hanging from your mirror.

[John Clay Wolf]

Then what?

[Caller/Listener]

What's up?

[John Clay Wolf]

What's that mean?

[Caller/Listener]

That. That means you're trying to cover up a strong smell of marijuana. Yeah, well, of something.

[John Clay Wolf]

The felony forest. I've seen those cars nowadays.

[Caller/Listener]

We can't call it a felony forest anymore because drugs ain't even a crime.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Amen.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oklahoma police want it. That's good.

[Mike Turley]

That's good.

[John Clay Wolf]

That was fun. That was more fun than I expected it to be. See, we can't have fun without making fun of black, white, Latino. We're trying to straighten out, guys. We're trying to do better, you know, it takes a village. It takes a village. All right, D.J.

[DJ Pre K]

Hey, bonus points if y' all want to guess the smell.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Come back with the smell. You Got bonus points, D.J. once you take us out, we got to go to break for sure, man.

[DJ Pre K]

We'll be right back with more of the John Clay Wolf show, baby.

[Announcer]

And now back to the John Clay Wolf show.

[Bobbo]

Wait, what?

[Announcer]

Hey, Google Translator presented by givemethevin.com I know what I said now, John. Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

We still got Chris the bug man, the loving bug man, the pest control man on line 11. I want to grab Jose in Las Vegas real quick. Jose, good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

Hello.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, hey, hey.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey. How's it going?

[John Clay Wolf]

Good, good, good. So I guess that you're surprised that you're hearing us on this radio station.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, a little bit out in Vegas.

[John Clay Wolf]

We're new. What do you think?

[Caller/Listener]

Sounds good. Like. Like the show, like the format.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, so what, what I see 16 Highlander with 36, 000 miles. It's a limited. What color?

[Caller/Listener]

Black.

[John Clay Wolf]

And is it a four wheel drive or two?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, it's all wheel drive.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Is it a panoramic sunroof, which is a platinum? It's okay. No rear dvd? Yes or no?

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Average, rougher, Clean condition.

[Norman]

Clean.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm a 30 grand buyer.

[Caller/Listener]

All right. Yeah. Your. Your range. Hit me in that range. That's like the top of the range. If you'll do that, I'm good to go.

[John Clay Wolf]

My range? What do you mean?

[Caller/Listener]

Well, when I submitted mine, sent me back a range.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, hey, give me the vin.com. yeah, yeah, I was trying to set you up for a little plug there, boss. Yeah. So you went to give me the vin.com and. And the computer bid it right there for you. Instantly. How long did that take you?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, not long at all. Soon as I submitted it, came back pretty quickly. I mean, five minutes. So less than five minutes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Why'd you call into the radio show? Why didn't you just hit accept? Quieres mejor Internet? Cox Internet. The tresintas megas tiene las velocidades rapidos e com fiables que buscas perfecto para streaming e gaming. Ytra bajardes de casa todo por solo quarente sinco Dolores almes con do Gregas Cox mobile include yaquipo de wifi y guarantia depressio de dos anios. And to plan.

[Caller/Listener]

Well, I just wanted to call in and see if I can get in.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, well, you're in. So did we buy your car?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, you're buying.

[Bobbo]

All right.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm buying it. The buyer. If you already. If you already submitted it, give me the vin.com. our buyer will be emailing you or texting you soon, if they haven't already and making payoff. Is there a payoff or clear title?

[Caller/Listener]

Clear title.

[John Clay Wolf]

Clear title. Then we will just get a check and I'll tell you something, this is kind of cocky, but it's true. Do you know it's stupid to bring up your competition, but, I mean, our competition is like Walmart, right? And it's CarMax. And I don't know. Did you get a bit of CarMax?

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, well, our money is greener than theirs, okay?

[Caller/Listener]

And I'll tell you, as long as it spins.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, the reason it's greener, our money is greener than CarMax is because they give their customers a bank draft which, if you read the back of it, it says it's no good for like five business days. Five to eight business days. So they're paying you with an iou, not a. Not a hard check. And when you get a check from us, it's cashable. You can take it to your bank. You can take it to our bank and cash it. You don't have to go pay some. If guys are in a hurry to get money, you don't have to go pay one of those check cash in places. You can go right to the bank and get your money. And where. Where our competition writes floaty money. That's no good.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, sounds good. I mean, pretty easy. Everything was done over the.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yep, we got it. Thanks, man. 800-800-7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800 radio. And remember, if we don't beat your CarMax offer, a written CarMax offer that you take a picture of, then we'll send you a check for a hundred dollars. Chris in Houston, good morning. Now we're back to the good stuff. Forget the cars. More bs Less. More bs, Less cars. That's what everybody keeps saying. Okay, so, Chris, you are a pest control man. How long have you been doing it?

[Caller/Listener]

I've been doing this for about five years.

[John Clay Wolf]

And how many times have you gotten lucky at the home?

[Caller/Listener]

About, man, a good three times, but it could be more. But, you know, I got to keep a schedule.

[John Clay Wolf]

So tell me, how do you go from spraying for roaches to. To heels behind to the bottom of her feet on the headboard.

[Caller/Listener]

Man. All the right moves.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, but I mean, really walk me through it. So you get there. Hi, I'm Chris. I'm here to, you know, spray your house. But you're on a regular schedule, right? So it's probably not the first time you're there. Would it be like the third or fourth visit where they get comfortable with.

[Caller/Listener]

You all the time? Well, I mean, sometimes it's. It's the first time. Sometimes it takes a couple of visits to establish that little relationship it just depends on the person. I mean, you gotta. You gotta read them from the beginning. So right when they open the door, you gotta see how they look, you know, what kind of clothes are they wearing, you know, are they looking in your eyes? You know, you gotta. All that take an effect.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Okay. And do you know. Have you been right with your instincts every time after your initial read?

[Caller/Listener]

About 97%.

[John Clay Wolf]

So is your closing rate higher on the first hit, the first visit, or like, after. After a few rounds at the home?

[Caller/Listener]

After a few rounds, I let them get comfortable with me.

[John Clay Wolf]

So how do we go. How do we go from spraying? See, you're in the house for an hour, and you're spraying. You're chatting around, you're talking, and you're being charming, and she's being charming. So you're feeling the vibe. How do you. How do you make that move? How do you. How do you put that spray rig down and clean your hands off and get all the insecticide off of it and say, hey, let's make love. You start playing bad company. Feel like making love? I mean, what do you do?

[Bobbo]

Baby, let's make love.

[Caller/Listener]

Well, me, you're going on the inside of the house, and you go into, like, you know, the. The. The lady, the woman, she's gonna already, you know, have this in her mind. She's gonna try to set this up already. You go like, I'll go into a restroom, and she's undressing, or she's putting stuff away, and then she'll make a joke, and then I'll make a joke, and then she'll be like, oh, I'm for real. And then I'll say, I'm real, too. And then I'll just go down from there.

[John Clay Wolf]

And then when you come back the next time to spray the house with insecticide, do y' all go, is it awkward? Have you ever done it where you get there? She's like, we're not doing that this time. That shouldn't have happened. I was in a bad place.

[Caller/Listener]

You know, I've never had that happen to me before. I have a pretty good success rate.

[John Clay Wolf]

So do you wind up, like. Do you have any, like, repeat offenders, like, where you go every month and spray their house and then spray her? I mean. I don't mean spray her. I mean mess around with her.

[Caller/Listener]

Of course.

[John Clay Wolf]

Really? So this guy goes around and gets paid to get laid?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, but. But you got to think about this, though. For every woman that wants to get laid, there's a man out there, too.

[John Clay Wolf]

That Wants to get laid?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you get hit on by men?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, man. Dude, you want to know a story?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, I'm afraid of it, but yeah, go ahead. Yeah, go ahead.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, doing. Doing some low income apartments. I was knocked on the door. Lady opened up the door, she's in a bathrobe, her kids are just, you know, out and everything. And then there's porn on the TV and dildos all over the floor. So I. You already know what I'm thinking.

[John Clay Wolf]

Anyway, time, time, time. Did you say the kids are there?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no, no kids.

[Bobbo]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, okay, okay. Go. Go ahead, go ahead. I'm listening. On the edge of my seat, actually.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, yeah, we're talking and everything. And then we get to the back bedroom and stuff. And next thing I know, a man walks in the. In the apartment.

[John Clay Wolf]

And then.

[Caller/Listener]

And then he confronts her saying, oh, what are you doing with this guy in here? It turns out she didn't own the apartment. The man owned it. It was his name on the lease. And she was just watching the place while he was out at the grocery store. But he came back and all that stuff is his. The dildos are his, the porn is his. And this dude was trying to get both of us to do something with him.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, and did you say that was not in your term in your. In your pest control contract?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no, that's not in my contract. No. Nope.

[Bobbo]

No. Thank you.

[John Clay Wolf]

So did you blow out of there or what?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, yeah, yeah. I dipped. I was gone.

[John Clay Wolf]

So do you talk to your other guys? Do y' all meet after work and share these stories? Y' all have a plan?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, no, not after work, but, you know, before we sit around a big table and just. Just talk about our visits to our house.

[John Clay Wolf]

So if you've ever dreamt of being a pest control man, Chris in Houston, Texas, you know, he's an. He's a motivational guy. He's like the guy that comes to the high school and gives you. Gives you the career path. Thank you, Chris. Thanks for sharing. Okay, well, now I've learned something here today. I gotta think about all this. I gotta bake all this in. I'll be back in a minute.

[Bobbo]

Turn it on, see if it works.

[Caller/Listener]

Incoming message.

[Announcer]

And now we return to the John Clay Wolf Show.

[John Clay Wolf]

We need some sort of robot.

[Norman]

Robot?

[DJ Pre K]

I'm not a robot.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm a human being. Ah, crap.

[Announcer]

Now, John Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tommy Two Tone. God, I haven't heard this one in a while.

[Bobbo]

Damn right. That's what we do, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sean in Dallas. Good morning.

[Bobbo]

Good Morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are you a. Are you an exterminator?

[Caller/Listener]

No, I'm not.

[John Clay Wolf]

That kind of blew me away.

[Caller/Listener]

It blew me away.

[John Clay Wolf]

What have you got? What have you got?

[Caller/Listener]

I got a 2011 Chevrolet Crew Cab V8LT 120000 miles.

[John Clay Wolf]

Leather or cloth?

[Caller/Listener]

Cloth.

[John Clay Wolf]

Two wheel drive or four?

[Caller/Listener]

Two.

[John Clay Wolf]

Average. Rough or clean?

[Caller/Listener]

Average.

[John Clay Wolf]

120. I'm a thirteen thousand dollar buyer. What color?

[Caller/Listener]

Silver.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hang on. Before I commit to the 13. Does it have the 20 inch wheels or the 18s?

[Caller/Listener]

20S.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm here on a job site with Tim who owns his own electrical contracting business. Three employees and two work trucks. Tim traded up to Geico Commercial Auto Insurance. We're positively here where he needs us most. They sure are. With step by step help on all his insurance needs. All for shockingly low rates.

[Mike Turley]

Shockingly low, huh?

[John Clay Wolf]

Just a little bit of electrician humour. Do you get it?

[Caller/Listener]

I got it.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, it feels like we have a real connection. All right, I'll stop.

[Bobbo]

Get a commercial auto insurance quote [e-mail] and see how much you could save. It feels good. To Geico.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm a little bit high. Does 13 buy it?

[Caller/Listener]

13 will buy it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Should. I'm a little bit high. Well, Turley, I think you need to play the sounder. All right, go to givemetheven.com. load it up. Tell them I bought it from me for 13 grand on the air.

[Caller/Listener]

I'll do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks.

[Caller/Listener]

Pay that man his money.

[John Clay Wolf]

Robert in Baton Rouge, good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

What's up, John?

[John Clay Wolf]

Just work, work, work, work, work.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I hear you.

[John Clay Wolf]

What you got?

[Caller/Listener]

I got a 2014 F150 four wheel drive cotton seats.

[John Clay Wolf]

What else? What you say? What kind of seats?

[Mike Turley]

Cotton seats.

[John Clay Wolf]

Cotton seats. He's been. I've never heard that. I've been in this business for 25 years. I love it.

[Bobbo]

It's the Louisiana thing again.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's got cotton seats. Okay, what color is it?

[Caller/Listener]

All right, it's blue. It's the dark blue cotton seats.

[John Clay Wolf]

Got the cotton seats. Which engine?

[Caller/Listener]

Ecoboost.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so it's a six, a hot rod six. And it's a four wheel drive hot rod six. 75, 000 miles. Average. Rougher, clean.

[Caller/Listener]

I would say average. I mean it looks good, but it's got a little. It's got a scratch on the back of the tailgate. Not real bad.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can fix that for $300. If I had to paint. No, 200 if I had to paint the tailgate.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay, so 200 in the tailgate and that's about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Roughly 75 grand. What grade of cotton are those seats there?

[Caller/Listener]

I don't know, but it's got the gray dye in it. Yeah, it's pretty sweet.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, well, good. Gray dyed cotton seats with blue exterior. Hey, Turley, you know in California, when I was at the auction getting our deal set up out there? They can't paint outside. Not at all.

[Mike Turley]

Environmental issues.

[John Clay Wolf]

I gotta tell you all about this in a second.

[Mike Turley]

No, that's very true.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, and the employee stuff is wild, too. It's a 20 grander, boss.

[Caller/Listener]

Cool. That's. That's fair.

[DJ Pre K]

That's.

[Caller/Listener]

That's. That's a. That's our bottom line. That's my wife's granddad.

[John Clay Wolf]

I love it when he says, that's our bottom line. I was thinking about this, cuz, like, you know, I love it when the guy come, you, you didn't do this. You're a realist. But unrealist. I have never bought a car. I was thinking about this from the guy that comes back, says, oh, this thing will do 25 grand easy. The guy that says, yeah, whatever. It'll do 30, 000 easy. We have never, ever, ever bought that person's car.

[Caller/Listener]

I. I don't blame you. It's a waste of time. Hey, by the way, like, Chris is legit. For real. Like, I'm. I know what's happening with the pest control deal.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are you one of them? Are you one of the four? I'm not.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm not. I'm not. But I did. I used to do custom home audio, video.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Got a company in Charlotte.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

And it's nothing but housewives that, like, work out. There's, like, a team of them in Charlotte. Okay. And they work out every day. They all get together, and it's nothing but a steady stream of contractors going in and out of the house. And I can tell you from experience that, like, it's no, like, it's. It's the real deal. Have. I've never done it, but I've been to several houses where, like, the wives have come out with, like, basically nothing on.

[John Clay Wolf]

So they just cheat on their husbands. Their husbands take care of them, and they just cheat on them.

[Caller/Listener]

Right? That's it. They're like bankers, you know? A lot of bankers in Charlotte, Huh? It's crazy, man. It's just wild. But it's the only thing about it is a lot of these houses, you know, you've got cameras and stuff everywhere.

[Norman]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're in that, you know, and then.

[Caller/Listener]

You don't Want to fish off the company document, you know?

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure, sure. When y' all testing out the new AV equipment and the camera set up and like, look, we'll make a movie.

[Caller/Listener]

That's the look. I'm. I mean, it's crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

So do women cheat on men more than men cheat on women? It sounds like it, I think.

[Caller/Listener]

I wouldn't be surprised, man. You know, I mean, because after a while, you know, you get too much invested in your wife, you get scared, you know what I mean? You lose all your.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, you can't cuss on the radio, boss. You've cussed twice. We've had to dump you. We've had to dump you twice now. But I. But I appreciate the fact that you feel so comfortable with us that you can throw profanities around across the country on FCC airwaves. I'm nineteen five. Nineteen seven. Nineteen eight on the truck now. It cost you a hundred dollars per dump, 100 per cuss word. Go to givemetheven.com givemethevin.com and load it up and we'll get it bought. Let's go. Let's. That's $50 for B word. So that's. Now it's 19 7.

[Bobbo]

Boy.

800-800-7234. Julio in Arlington. Good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, good morning, John. How are you?

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm good. 135, 000 miles on an 04 Tahoe. Two wheel drive with leather. Does it have a sunroof?

[Caller/Listener]

No, it doesn't.

[John Clay Wolf]

Old body style. The question here in the miles are right there on the edge of still usable or not is how nice is this truck?

[Caller/Listener]

It's fairly clean. I wax it every two weeks. I change the oil every 3,000. I use that royal purple oil. So.

[John Clay Wolf]

So the seat. Let's talk about the driver's seat. When you come in and out of it, you know how they scar up and rip and tear. Is it in good shape or does it need to be done?

[Caller/Listener]

No, it's in good shape. I just had them redone again.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Sounds like a nice one. Sounds like a nice one. I'm going to go.

[Caller/Listener]

I don't want to sell it, but the wife is making me sell it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does it have a third row?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, it does.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does she wanting you to sell it so that y' all can have budget ex. More budget in your. In your monthly budget for a pest control contract?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no, she wants another one.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. I didn't know she wanted the exterminator to come over.

[Caller/Listener]

Not yet.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, it does. I'm A. I think I'm a four grand buyer.

[Caller/Listener]

Four grand.

[John Clay Wolf]

Maybe 4, 500, maybe 5. I'm four to five grand depending on how nice it is. It's got 135, 000 miles. It doesn't. You know, it is an old body style. It's. How many years is that? My God. We're in 18. So we've got a 14 year old rig. Yeah, about four thought.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, well, these, these. These old Tahoes are better than the new ones. You know, the new ones are having a lot of engine problems. These old ones are pretty good.

[Mike Turley]

Look at them, Silty.

[John Clay Wolf]

They're pretty good. They're pretty Good. That, that 5:3 with that transmission in the trucks and the Tahoes and the burbs, they. They. They last a long time.

[Bobbo]

I agree. Did this one have the cotton seats?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, it. It has cow seats. Not cotton seats?

[Caller/Listener]

No, it doesn't have cotton seats.

[Bobbo]

Okay.

[Mike Turley]

All right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you, sir. I'm a five grand. Nice. Go to givemetheven.com. load it up. 800-800-72348. 800 radio Randy the chipmunk.

[Mike Turley]

What?

[John Clay Wolf]

What? What? Get over here. What's that noise in the background?

[Animal Character]

Hey, guys.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hi.

[Animal Character]

Are you hanging around?

[Mike Turley]

What?

[Animal Character]

I'm glad to be back out in the sunshine again. Yeah, we got you had July 4th holiday, y' all guy. Yeah, man. It's a heck of a time for little aminals. You know why? Y' all are drinking beer and working on your tan and riding your jet skis. You ever noticed you don't see a whole lot of little aminals running around like usual?

[John Clay Wolf]

Right on 4th July, right.

[Animal Character]

You ever wonder why that was?

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Animal Character]

You wanna know why?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. Why?

[Animal Character]

Because we avoid the fourth of July. I like to play.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why is that?

[Animal Character]

Your kids and their firecrackers play hell on the little aminal population. I mean, all y' all are kind of scary dangerous anyway. You know, with. With your cars and your junk food and everything. You give a little kid a brick of black cats. Good lord.

[Mike Turley]

Man.

[John Clay Wolf]

They want to blow stuff up in. In animals or one of them.

[Animal Character]

They want to tie them to the dog and throw them at the cat. Stick them in a tin can with a chipmunk. It's horrible. It's terrible. You don't know how many of my cousins and neighbors have their paws blown off. My friend Russ. That's why my friend Rusty has one eye.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, well, I heard your. Your uncle Scooter that lives out in Weatherford that works at that car that hangs out that car dealership. The reason his ears are so far forward is that he had one go off behind it. He blew his ears forward.

[Animal Character]

Yeah, yeah. He's funny looking squirrel. He'll do stuff to your mind. But that's why we have like kind of like Passover.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Animal Character]

On July 4th we just get a bucket of water and stay in the tree just in case.

[John Clay Wolf]

Passover.

[Animal Character]

Cover all contingencies and we pray to the Great Coon.

[John Clay Wolf]

What about Roman candles? They can hit you in the trees with those Roman candles.

[Animal Character]

Oh, we had it.

[Bobbo]

[Animal Character]

Sometimes kids are mean. Yalls kids and they're firecrackers. Why don't you send to Oklahoma, the church camp like everybody else. Anyways, could be out again.

[Announcer]

John Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, good morning everyone. Hour number three starting up for those of y' all who just joining in and missed the first two. And like to catch on, you can get the podcast. It goes up@john claywolf.com on iTunes. You can link to it through our radio show site, Junklywolf.com it'll go up about 1 o' clock central. Good morning. Texas, California, Nevada, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana. I think that's all of it for right now. A little bit of New Mexico too. That's right.

[Bobbo]

A little bit. Yeah. Apparently.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh yeah. I spent a week out in California. It's fun. It was good for me. It was. It was an eye opener. That's Turley, I'm telling you. Every time I take a right coming out of. Every time I'd come out of LA and get on the one on the one PCH heading back to where we're staying up the up the PCH this would come to. I played the Beach Boys too much. People like my kids and stuff are like getting sick of it, right? It just comes. You just feel it. You just, you look at that scene and you see those big ass breaking waves and like a slew of a hundred surfers all sitting out there waiting on their break.

[Bobbo]

I get it. I get it. When I go to Florida, Buffett, I just want to hear Buffett Yep.

[John Clay Wolf]

All the time. I can see that.

[Bobbo]

We get that in California. Out in California, they probably find it a bit passe.

[John Clay Wolf]

You think we were on the beach yesterday? Yesterday afternoon I took a little time off right before we left and went to the beach. And I was out there. We were all body surfing and. And screwing around in the Baywatch. People were like, hey, man, you don't realize how. The waves were huge. Yeah, huge. They would take. You know, I'm used to the Texas coast. You dive into that little breaker. No, this stuff would, like, rip your soul out when you dive into these breaks. I mean, it would, like, pull your swimsuit down around your toenails.

[Bobbo]

It would.

[Caller/Listener]

It would.

[John Clay Wolf]

I felt like Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket when he got beat up with the bars of soap. I'm sore all over today. It's from these vortexes off these waves. They're dangerous. I mean, of course they are.

[Bobbo]

It's the West Coast.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, it's real waves. Yeah.

[Bobbo]

We were in San Diego. It's like a different world out there.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can't believe everybody's not dead from wave death.

[Bobbo]

You see seals and things. It's just crazy.

[John Clay Wolf]

These waves are like mercy murder, dude.

[Mike Turley]

Wave death. Or maybe drowning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Just wave death. Just not drowning, just beat to death by waves. It, like, tries to rip your head and all your appendages off.

[Bobbo]

That's a workout, dude.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, it's just a beat down. Four people beating me up at once wouldn't have been as bad as what some of those waves did to me yesterday. And then slap you around in the sand and the sand's all great. Just beat the hell out of you. Like taking you by the back of the hair and just slamming your face into the dirt. And then you like. After a real beat down, it was. It happened twice, but I really got it bad. I was like, I'm. I'm glad I'm a good, strong swimmer and I can hold my breath a long time.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I'm a heavy, muscly guy. I'm fat, but I'm, you know, I'm thick. I couldn't imagine if I was frail. But the two times when I really got beat up, when I raised up the Baywatch guy. He's from Australia. He's standing right there. Hey, mate, I thought I told you, don't go out that far. It won't treat you right. I'm like, boy, you're. You're right. Mate, could you come in here and carry me out, please? Anyway, that. That place is busy.

[Bobbo]

Guy out too far on the way. Can I have a hard time? Can I have to come and get you? That's right, your swimming lot is. Sheila.

[John Clay Wolf]

My kids were like, daddy, come back in, you're gonna die. No, it worked for the Beach Boys. I can do it. How did the kids do one of them?

[Mike Turley]

It didn't work out too well.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, he died to swimming pool drunk, didn't he? Did he die in the waves?

[Bobbo]

I think he was in the ocean.

[Mike Turley]

Ocean man.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. Was he in the waves? Right there off the damn beach. The same place where I was.

[Bobbo]

Was that Dennis?

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, one of them. Yeah, I think that's what it was.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. It wasn't.

[Mike Turley]

It didn't end very well.

[John Clay Wolf]

So the beach boy sang about surfing and then he got killed by a wave. He got swallowed by a monster wave.

[Bobbo]

And he died somewhat.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[Mike Turley]

I think there's drugs involved.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

If I was on drugs and that, I'd be dead. Dead as hell. I'd be gone right now. Today would be a memorial show.

[Bobbo]

Did the kids get out in the water? I mean, how did they do?

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, yeah, it was all. It was all a good time.

[Bobbo]

Did they have any trouble getting beat up by the ways or they have a good time?

[John Clay Wolf]

They had a good time, but they didn't go out quite as far as I did. Of course, I had to go out and he explained that to me. He's like, man, they're on surfboards and these guys on the bodyboards have flippers on. They can move around. You're just going to get the hell beat out of you. And that's really what happened.

[Bobbo]

How old are Max and Nolan again?

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm burnt, I'm sunburnt, I'm skin up from getting beat against the bottom of the ocean floor, and my body is sore from. From being abused and assaulted.

[Bobbo]

You look, when you first walked in this morning, I thought you looked a little beat up.

[John Clay Wolf]

The bottom of my feet are so wasted from walking on that hot sand. Yeah, I didn't realize, you know, I had that accident years ago. I can't feel my feet. Right. Yeah, I screwed my feet up pretty bad.

[Bobbo]

Really?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. I think you're going to peel off today. Like, the skin, it's already bubbling. Yeah, it's not. It's not. Anyway, but that. That aside, I had a. I had a wonderful time. And driving around that traffic was, you know, it made me remember the. Give me the vin. Going out to the west coast and doing this thing full on like we do here in Texas regional. We've started lightly in Bakersfield and like Temecula, just getting warmed up. And of course Las Vegas, the traffic's not that bad. But when we start this in LA and we're picking all these cars up, it's going to be a job. That's what I was doing out there is looking for locations. Yeah, we're going to have little, probably about five locations across the region where we can dispatch drivers out of to the closest one because there's, there's just no way to make it across the damn metro out there, dude. Los Angeles is like Houston, Austin, San Antonio and Dallas all combined into one. It's that big.

[Caller/Listener]

It's.

[John Clay Wolf]

You can't even get your brain around it until you live it. And I've been out there a while, but this time I was like, I'm gonna stay on the highway system. I'm gonna drive this whole sob. Orange County, Anaheim, Calabasas, San Bernardino. And it's a beating, man. But the mountains, I forgot about that too there. I don't know how. Colorado mountains, you know, they're wow, right?

[Bobbo]

Sure.

[John Clay Wolf]

They're just as big there. You drive that Santa Monica Pass from, from like Malibu out to Calabasas.

[Bobbo]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

The, the, the distance and I didn't look at them at, between the ground level and the peaks.

[Bobbo]

Ah, they got some immense ranges that part of California for sure. Temecula, you know, we, we have trouble getting a satellite signal into Temecula because of the, the altitude of some of those mountains right around.

[John Clay Wolf]

I believe it. Yeah.

[Bobbo]

So thanks to our friend Tree.

[John Clay Wolf]

Justin. Good morning.

[Bobbo]

We figured out how to do that.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, how's it going, man?

[John Clay Wolf]

Where are you?

[Caller/Listener]

I'm in Las Vegas, Nevada.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are we on?

[Caller/Listener]

Yep, we're on.

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you do in Vegas? What's your job? How do you make money?

[Caller/Listener]

Work for, work for the city.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you want to be a driver for givemetheven.com huh? Do you want to be a driver for givemethevin.com no, I'm good. Okay. I need some. And we, we just leased a space on. Over on Sahara and, and I think we're gonna get the keys to it next week. So I'm gonna need to hire a drive crew out there and I'm gonna need hire a manager to run that office out there and the same thing for the West Coast. 8008-0072-3480-0800-ROAD Kevin, how do they apply by the way? Go to jobs. GiveMeTheEven.com is the email address. Or just go to GiveMeTheVin.com in click the jobs button. We also need title Clerks in Fort Worth, Texas. Title Clerks in Fort Worth, TX. And I'm looking for a dealer trade guy. If you're, if you're a fellow that can work out of the headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas. Dallas, Texas that has experience as a new car dealership, old salt of the sea knows everybody handled dealer trades. I need one of those. Kevin in Houston, what you got?

[Caller/Listener]

I got a 2015 King Ranch.

[John Clay Wolf]

King Ranch. Okay. 38,000 miles is what I see here. Crew cab, leather roof, nav lifted with 20 inch rims. How much lift?

[Caller/Listener]

Got a seven inch lift on it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, seven. Seven's a lot. So how many miles are on the tires? Because those tires wear out quick.

[Caller/Listener]

That's a new set of neato carrappers on. They probably got a couple hundred miles on them.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I've noticed that with people when they, they're really ready to sell their car, they just went to discount tire. It's the damnedest thing. People put new new skins on the ride right before they get ready to get rid of it. And that's a good practice because they bring more, you know, I mean how can we give that much money for a truck? The tires are all wore out.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I don't think I. The price of the tires, is it.

[John Clay Wolf]

A six cylinder or an eight?

[Caller/Listener]

It's an eight.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

Got bed liner in it. It's got 360 cameras on the way around it.

[John Clay Wolf]

36,000 miles on a big lift. H. Houston, Texas. $38,000.

[Caller/Listener]

No, that won't do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why?

[Caller/Listener]

Why? The retail value is worth that. This truck's in excellent shape.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, well do, do, do. I mean if I went around auto trader and get gave retail for every car listed, how long would I be in business?

[Caller/Listener]

Well, that's only half of what the vehicle worth.

[John Clay Wolf]

Half. Oh, oh, half. We've got a realist on the phone. We've got a reality guy.

[Bobbo]

Damn.

[John Clay Wolf]

So, so what's your truck worth?

[Caller/Listener]

Me personally, I think it would be at least 45.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's my guy earlier that I was talking to that says easy. Oh yeah. Oh, all day, all day. Call me in 90 days after you get tired of marketing that thing for 45,000 and we'll buy it from you. 800. 800-72348. 800 Radio Joe in San Antonio.

[Norman]

Good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

Morning. How are you?

[John Clay Wolf]

Good, good. 09. So that's that 08. 09, 2010 body style with 183. But it's King Ranch four wheel drive. Does it have any. Has it been deleted? Have you deleted the exhaust?

[Caller/Listener]

No. No original emissions.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does it have any problems? Because those engines, when they go bad, we got to pull the cab off and it's expensive as hell.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah. Step one, remove cap, right? No, it actually runs and drives great. It's got the wrench, but no code.

[John Clay Wolf]

What is the wrench? When you plug the scanner into it, why is the wrench on?

[Caller/Listener]

No codes. No codes at all.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. I don't know.

[Caller/Listener]

I have no idea.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's amazing.

[Caller/Listener]

Truck runs and drives great.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, Norman, come here real quick.

[Mike Turley]

Perfect timing.

[John Clay Wolf]

You get it? You got it. You put your headphones on. We've got our in house crew chief here. We've got a guy with it with a high mileage power stroke. It's a.09. You got to get that mic. Okay. Good morning, Norman.

[Bobbo]

Good morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, what's a better mechanic than a Puerto Rican, right?

[Bobbo]

Got it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Maybe a Cuban mechanic. So this gentleman has. He has a wrench light on. On a.09 power stroke, but no codes. Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

What does that type of stuff. But yeah, there's. There's no codes.

[John Clay Wolf]

No codes. For those of y' all listening means like it's not saying there's a check engine light. You plug a scanner into it and it gives you a code, and then you look the code up and tell what the problem is. So what is the wrench? Is that a maintenance wrench or is that a.

[Norman]

Well, the wrench is a maintenance. That is, they usually. How you take it off it is the, uh, you know the. That button in the dashboard that resets the trip of the odometer? Yeah. You hold that button when you put the key on, hold that button for 10 seconds, and it will blink and it will go away. What she's trying to telling you is change the oil, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's what I.

[Caller/Listener]

Change it regularly. Run amsoil through it. Pristine truck.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it's just a maintenance line.

[Norman]

It's a maintenance life reset.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, Maria. Good morning. You're in the air. You're on the air.

[Caller/Listener]

Good morning.

[John Clay Wolf]

Scott Mansfield. Good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, good morning. Is this John?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yo. Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm calling to ask what happened to the Jesus spot.

[John Clay Wolf]

We pulled it down. We pulled it down because people got sensitive about it. They didn't find the onomatopoeia in it. They didn't find the humor. They didn't see that we were kicking at the evangelist preachers is really what I was doing. A lot of people took it too. They took it too literally.

[Caller/Listener]

But there were so many other religions that you hadn't poked fun at yet. The guy that answered the phone, you missed the best one with Jehovah Witness because.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

You give them the money.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Well, I mean, you say. You say, unlike them, I'll give you the money. I won't show up at dinner, and I'll leave.

[John Clay Wolf]

Satan, what are you doing here?

[Bobbo]

Hi, everybody. Prince of Darkness here. Oh, you've got a great point. What's this caller's name?

[John Clay Wolf]

I hung up on him.

[Bobbo]

It's too bad. Scott. Stay out there, Scott. I'm gonna come out and have a talk with you. That's great. I could use that in my sales pitch. God love the Jehovah's Witnesses, you know, Be careful.

[John Clay Wolf]

Everyone's dying to be offended. Dying to be offended.

[Bobbo]

Behind all the facade, all the mythology, I'm really just a normal guy, you know, I sit around the house, wonder, what am I gonna do? You know, I just finished a great novel, nothing going on. Sometimes I wish they'd stop by.

[John Clay Wolf]

I loved you. Well, Al Pacino's portrayal of you in. What was the name of that movie.

[Bobbo]

Where he was a lawyer, Devil's advocate. Yeah, I actually was a consultant on that.

[John Clay Wolf]

What were they pay. What were you charging him? An Hour to consult his soul. His soul. Mike in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. How are you? All right, my friend, what have you got? Sir, I see a 14 Benz E class with 44 that. But is it a 250, 350, 400 hybrid 550.

[Caller/Listener]

We got an E E 350 sport.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, what color?

[Caller/Listener]

Metallic silver with a light gray interior, leather seats. Then it's.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it's got AMG wheels?

[Caller/Listener]

No AMG wheels.

[John Clay Wolf]

Then it's not a sport.

[Caller/Listener]

They call it a sports sedan.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you buy it new or used?

[Caller/Listener]

I bought a certified pre owned. From Mercedes.

[John Clay Wolf]

From Mercedes.

[Caller/Listener]

I still got the factory warranty.

[John Clay Wolf]

Go to givemetheven.com, take a side shot picture and open the door and take another picture of the inside so I can see it. And then I'll know exactly what I'm looking at. But I'm thinking, how many miles are on it? 44.

[Caller/Listener]

You said 44,200.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's a six cylinder, 3.5. So it's a 350 and the sport's a thousand. 1500 more. So just 20 grand for the conversation and then let me see the pictures and the VIN number and then I. And I'll get specific and email you exact offer.

[Caller/Listener]

Sure.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, go to the website, give me the vindo. How did you find me out of Fort Lauderdale? We're not on the air in Fort Lauderdale.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I know. My, my buddy Justin, huge fan of your show, called me immediately and said you need to call these guys right now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Where does he live?

[Caller/Listener]

Houston.

[John Clay Wolf]

Houston, Good morning, Houston. Good morning, Fort Lauderdale. We'll be down in Florida soon enough. On the. All right, go to. Give me the vin.com and load it up. Thanks, man. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. So, Norman, what were you. What were you complaining about when you got in here? About. About some M6.

[Norman]

Well, yeah, in an M6 that I have in the.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you gotta set it up. So on the auction every Wednesday morning at Dallas Auto Auction, we have what we call our VIP cars, which are, you know, our heavies, our hundred grand, or at least, you know, 60 or above. Porsches, turbo Porsche, all the big stuff, just the showboats, the showgirls. Yes. Now, you were yelling earlier about.

[Norman]

Well, I was yelling about it because I got this car that is worth like, let's put it 50, $60,000. And the car arrived to the auction and I went through the whole process and our recon.

[John Clay Wolf]

Process.

[Norman]

Yeah, our recon process. It got polished, cleaned, you know, what do we do? We clean the carpets. We do all these.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do the wheels.

[Norman]

Yes. The whole thing.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[Norman]

So when I ended up with the vehicle in the lane itself on show day, on show, the main stage, just few minutes, the big man gonna walk and we're gonna start the whole show. I look and I take a glance and I saw different windshield.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I say, what.

[Norman]

What's going on with the front window? And I get closer and it's crack.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's crack.

[Norman]

How I can have a beautiful woman, she's blonde, she got nice rack on her big butt. And then when she smiles, she got a rotten tooth. That's not gonna happen. And I got so pissed off about it. Everybody was telling me, oh, you're reacting and things like that. Nobody want to move the car out of the way. You know what I did? I took my coffee and I slap it. I poured it in front of the windshield. Now you can get the car out of here because it is.

[John Clay Wolf]

You threw a drink on it.

[Norman]

I throw the drink on it. Actually, I spit on it.

[Mike Turley]

So that's why it didn't run.

[Norman]

That's why.

[Mike Turley]

Okay, now I know why my car didn't run. That's right.

[John Clay Wolf]

I appreciate. So you bought it, Charlie? Yeah.

[Mike Turley]

That's awesome.

[John Clay Wolf]

But see, I fired the windshield man about three weeks ago over this same thing. We can't have nice cars with cracked windshields. It just. I mean, we buy them that way. We buy them that way, but it's our job.

[Bobbo]

That's great.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, the windshield guy lives in a big house. I mean, they can make a nice living off of us. We buy hundreds of, God, almost a thousand windshields a month. So why did they not fix it?

[Mike Turley]

How.

[John Clay Wolf]

Where's the breakdown?

[Norman]

I. I don't know how it happens. It could be one of my guys missed it. But how.

[John Clay Wolf]

How do you miss that?

[Norman]

How you miss that? Yeah, that's what I'm trying to.

[John Clay Wolf]

To.

[Norman]

To impose. Have some logic in here. This guy is mad at me now.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, no, I'm not mad.

[Mike Turley]

Seriously.

[John Clay Wolf]

He.

[Norman]

He didn't got his $40,000 for his car because of windshield. But that's how it happens.

[Mike Turley]

But it helps the sale of it. Seriously, to have that windshield. Right? That does that.

[John Clay Wolf]

I appreciate it. We work on a razor thin margin. We make 300 a car. I know nobody believes that, but we do a ridiculous volume in little skills. Stuff like that is the difference maker. That's the difference maker. If you're going to invest $60,000 in a car to make 300 on it, which is the Stupidest thing you could ever hurt in your life. But we do it all the time. We at least got to get them right and get them ready.

[Norman]

Think about it. It is an M6 and Mayhem auction. You can pick up on an M6 and you say, well, which one I want to buy? The one with the broken windshield or the one with the nice windshield?

[Bobbo]

What do you think?

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, they just want cars that are ready. It's like that customer that called in a minute ago with that sport certified pre owned Mercedes. If you get them to the point where the dealer will buy them to certify and they trust them, they'll pay more. And we've got to get them ready. We've got to get them ready. Well, thank you for pointing that out. Yeah, Glenn, are you tuned in? Little ball. Busting little ball.

[Norman]

Sorry, baba.

[John Clay Wolf]

We'll be back in a minute. Go to givemetheven.com if you want to sell your car.

[Announcer]

Yes, it is an RSS.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. It has 36, 000 miles. What color?

[Caller/Listener]

It has 34,700.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

It is imperial blue metallic with white racing stripes.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's loser blue with cool stripes. I'm kidding. That looks good, actually, that white stripe on that color. Blue does look good.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

If it was a. If it was a BMW 740, it'd be loser blue. But in the SS Camaro it's fine. Does 15 grand buy it?

[Caller/Listener]

Nope.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does 16 grand buy it?

[Caller/Listener]

Nope.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does 17 grand buy it?

[Caller/Listener]

Nope.

[John Clay Wolf]

We gotta be getting close, man. We gotta be getting close. Do you want to sell it or do you? He's calling a brag.

[Caller/Listener]

It ranges between 18 and 20.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, you're looking at retail. I'm going to be the top of the wholesale market. I can get you a check in hand, be done. You don't have to go run an ad, show it to people that can't afford it, wait for their bankers to say no, ask if you'll take trade ins, all that stuff. So I mean, you're going to discount a little bit? I can't give retailer, I'll be out of business.

[Caller/Listener]

Understood.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, 17, 5 buy it?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Then I bought. Needs a clean carfax. If it's got a bad carfax, I got to back it up. Did you get drunk? Did you get drunk and wreck it?

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, then I bought it. I own that. I'm gonna put you on hold and a pre K will tell you how to load it into the system and we'll get a get it converted. Do you have a clear title? Is there a payoff?

[Caller/Listener]

No, it's clear title.

[John Clay Wolf]

We'll do it Monday morning.

[Bobbo]

There you go.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hang on. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Now if we would have been playing that crappy music, Bobo, that deal wouldn't have gone down, man. You got to pick the right music. Yeah, we, we. It puts everybody in a good mood. You got to have the mood music. Not, not all looted out, Xanaxed out, I mean.

[Bobbo]

Well, in that case, I don't mind you bitching at me about it. Thank you, darling. When's our anniversary?

[John Clay Wolf]

Here's another one.

[Bobbo]

Tony, I didn't marry you.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tony's got a 14,000mile SS convertible. Is that right, Tony?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir, that's correct. That's correct. 14, 924.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you. Do you have a title or is.

[Caller/Listener]

There a payoff clear title on it?

[John Clay Wolf]

In Ennis, Texas, there's a clear title. I didn't know that that was allowed.

[Bobbo]

Wow.

[Caller/Listener]

And guess what? We didn't even write a check for it. We paid cash.

[John Clay Wolf]

Like, did you literally throw down green when you bought it?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

They made you sign a form though, didn't they?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no, no form. Just cash and title.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because normally if you go over 10 GS in cash, they'll whip a format on your ass, right? Right.

[Caller/Listener]

I've been there. I might be on that list already.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tony, are you a drug dealer?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, no, no, not at all.

[John Clay Wolf]

Just a farmer.

[Caller/Listener]

But I do, I do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah. Just. Just a farmer. I do have a 2 plus 2. It's the RS with the package. Convertible under 15, 000 miles. What color got the 20 inch wheels? It's white on black.

[John Clay Wolf]

And it's a RSS. RSS convertible with leather.

[Caller/Listener]

That's correct.

[John Clay Wolf]

And is it a stick or an automatic? Most. I think they're all automatic.

[Caller/Listener]

It's. Yeah, all automatic. I know they're 6.6speed now.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's a 21 inch wheel package on that year in that car. Is. Do you. Do you know which one you have?

[Caller/Listener]

I believe it's the 20 inch.

[John Clay Wolf]

Most of them are 20s. There's just a few 21s.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

We're coming out of convertible season. It's getting too hot. Those cars are slowing down. I'm not beating on your car. I'm just telling you the truth.

[Caller/Listener]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right after the fourth of July, the sports cars come down in value. The vets come down the hot rock. Everybody, everybody buys those cars in the spring so they can get their girl. And then they had their girl by now. And then they get rid of that thing and they. And then by now they're like looking for a tahoe because they've already knocked her up and they've got to buy more seats. You think this is stupid, but I'm really telling the truth. Yeah, I mean the, the human. The human behavior is very. You can really judge it. When you sit back and look at it from afar, it's wild. I'm a 19 grand buyer. Maybe 20.

[Caller/Listener]

I think 20 will do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, if 20 will do it, go to givemethe vi n givein.com. you can put your license plate in or your VIN number and load it up. Throw. Throw us some pictures. We'll email you the official offer letter. We'll wrap it up and get you paid. I'm not gonna pay you.

[Norman]

John.

[Caller/Listener]

Let me ask you this question.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

I got a 68 fastback.

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't. I don't know it. I don't know.

[Caller/Listener]

You don't do that.

[John Clay Wolf]

I just don't know it. I just don't know. I'll look, send it to me on a different. Once you load that one, go back and load the. The Mustang. I have people I can call that I can fit. Figure it out. Brian and Austin.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, I want to help y' all with the west coast outreach. Because if I heard you correctly, you've got an office in Bakersfield and a radio presence in Bakersfield. Welcome to the John Clay Wolf Show. Right, right, right. Do you know who's from Bakersfield?

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Caller/Listener]

Corn is from Bakersfield.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so we need to play some corn.

[Caller/Listener]

You need to add them into the bumper music. Not just because they're one of my personal favorites. They actually have a place in music history. They're the first new metal band. They took the funky Chili Peppers thing, but down tuned it, made it heavy like death metal, but didn't have the crazy vocals, you know, and it. So whether you like it or hate it, they invented a new style, you know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Were they just doing heavier drugs?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, they were into some crystal for a while, but they're feeling much better now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Glad to hear that they're feeling better. Okay, well, we will take that into Turley. We need some corn. Thanks, Brian and Austin.

[Mike Turley]

Hey, there's a breaking sports news you want to hear?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes, England has won.

[Mike Turley]

They beat Sweden for the first time in 28 years. They're going to go to the semifinals. That's actually big news, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

That Denmark, that Denmark game. You know, my, my in laws are from Denmark. I don't know if anybody watched that World cup last week. It just killed me. Went down to kicks. Oh, that, that. Nobody's listening to Denmark right now, but yeah, that, that was a bummer. The World Cup's great. I mean, I enjoy the hell out of it. So. So who else is going to the semis, do we know?

[Mike Turley]

France and Belgium is on the one side and we'll find out if the Ruskis or Croatia will be in.

[John Clay Wolf]

Now what about the cocaine dealers? Why are they not in the middle of this?

[Mike Turley]

There's no. Belgium is not.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, there's really no. Those are a bunch of weed heads. Yeah, so, I mean, South America cocaine has been running the, the World cup dominance for the past two decades. See, this wouldn't have ever happened if they hadn't killed Pablo Escobar. Now, now it takes a while for, for the king to fall, but South America is not in the finals. Nowhere.

[Mike Turley]

Now you got Brazil drunks now and then. Well, Russia's cheaters, of course. And I don't know what Croatia is. And yeah, you got the French in Belgium.

[John Clay Wolf]

So where's Croatia?

[Mike Turley]

That's part. Well, they used to be Russia, basically.

[Bobbo]

So a former Soviet Republic.

[John Clay Wolf]

Zane in Cyprus, a 2011 Honda Accord with a buck 20. Is it a four cylinder or six?

[Caller/Listener]

It's four, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

[Caller/Listener]

[John Clay Wolf]

Average. Rough or clean?

[Caller/Listener]

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it lifted or is it stop? So it's got them cotton seats in it. I think I'm a 12. I think I'm a 12 grand buyer. Maybe 13.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right. Let's go to the website. Darren. Down on the border. The Mexico border. Eagle Pass. Texas. Texas. Holy hell.

[Caller/Listener]

Hi, buddy. How you doing?

[John Clay Wolf]

Of course he has 200,000 miles on his sequoia. What else would he have? He drives 150,000 miles to work every day.

[Norman]

That's right.

[John Clay Wolf]

We work hard. I mean there's nowhere to go. Either of those guys down in Del Rio and Eagle Pass. I've been buying cars out of there since like 97. And they have like 2000 miles per year on them or 80. The difference between if they stay in town or they commute. This car's worth. This car is worth two grand. Maybe 2500, maybe three grand. N 200,000 miles old body style. I'm a. I'm a $2500 buyer. I'd give three grand if you bring it to me.

[Caller/Listener]

Where is that?

[John Clay Wolf]

Dallas. We can get it to San Antonio if you can get it to San Antonio. Probably works. We make that work. I've got, I've got transport. How far are you from San Antonio? Three hours.

[Caller/Listener]

About two and a half hours.

[John Clay Wolf]

Go to givemetheven.com and load it up. We'll get a bot. Jonathan. Jonathan. A15 Sierra Duramax leather rift nav. 15. 15. God, my brain is slipping. What year do we switch body styles? Was 15 the first year? Yes. Jonathan.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is 15 the first year? That new body style?

[Caller/Listener]

I believe, I believe it is.

[John Clay Wolf]

I think it is too.

[Caller/Listener]

Leather all terrain package. It's, it's, it's, it's an order only truck.

[John Clay Wolf]

Is it just. I'm not bidding and I'm talking right now trying to understand what I'm looking at. Is it 40 grand? Does that sound right?

[Caller/Listener]

I can get, I can get 58 on trade in.

[John Clay Wolf]

Easy, right? Easy, easy, easy. It's just easy because you can buy a brand new one for 60. You can go to the Dodge dealer and get a brand new Mega cab laramy for 60,000 after discount. But this 3 year old 50,000 mile will easy do. 58. Ah. I've never bought a car from anybody that says that. Oh, hell, I can get. No, you guys don't understand. It's like. Like what stock? Apple stock. I don't even know where it's at. Say it's $200 a share, right? And I bid it for $200. Oh, no, it's 250. No, it's not. It's not 250. But find out. Figure that out on your own. Come back and see me and. And it's just an education process. I understand. Hey, Andrew, Is this. It's a Texas edition avalanche with 111 on it.

[Caller/Listener]

It's leather.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's a 12 with 111 leather. Does it have a sunroof?

[Caller/Listener]

No, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

[John Clay Wolf]

Metal and a brain, actually. They're great musicians. Oh, yeah, they're excellent musicians.

[Bobbo]

Are you sure?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

I can't listen long enough to tell.

[John Clay Wolf]

Their drummer is one of the most renowned drummers in the business. Get out of town, Turley. Correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe. Well, I'm a drummer, so I. I watch that a little more than most.

[Norman]

I disagree. I like the Tig Norte.

[John Clay Wolf]

So what about Buck Owens? That's not better, right?

[Bobbo]

You, of course, from Bakersfield.

[John Clay Wolf]

Man.

[Bobbo]

Chorus. Bakersfield music. Shut up, dude. Bakersfield's Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, Dwight Yoko.

[John Clay Wolf]

Here'S some Mexican music for you. Well, this is Mexican. This is country. I kind of get any. It's Calimax.

[Bobbo]

That's that Bakersfield sound, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

The Bakersfield sound.

[Bobbo]

Yeah. When Buck Owens went to Bakersfield, what do you think it is?

[John Clay Wolf]

Muscle Shoals or something.

[Bobbo]

And he and a guy named Don Rich made a bunch of hit albums, and it really caught on, you know, they always did these shuffles. Honky tonk music. No. And Merle Haggard got a lot of his style from the old Buck Owens stuff, okay? And now when you hear Dwight Yocum in the modern day, that's Bakersfield sound. You know, the mavericks in country.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you make this up or is this.

[Bobbo]

No, it's absolutely true there. If I.

[John Clay Wolf]

If I Google Bakersfield sound, I will see what you're talking about.

[Bobbo]

Before Dwight Yocum became Tom Petty, he began as a rockabilly artist who emanated the Bakersfield sound invented by Buck owens in the 1960s.

[John Clay Wolf]

You heard it here first, folks. Muscle Shoals, Alabama has the sound. If y' all have not ever watched that Muscle Shoals documentary on Netflix do. If you're into music, it's one of the best I've ever seen. Have you seen Turning?

[Mike Turley]

No, but isn't this Tejano music?

[Caller/Listener]

Te.

[John Clay Wolf]

Watch out. You're gonna offend someone. No, I'm not.

[Norman]

I knew. I. I knew that note recently. That's what somebody. What is it? You was in a bar, Misha, or.

[Mike Turley]

Something like that for a friend. It doesn't mean that I'm Jewish.

[John Clay Wolf]

Of course you are.

[Norman]

I. I don't like to go places that people cut things out from other people. I don't know. I don't get it.

[John Clay Wolf]

God, I don't even know what he's talking about.

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, I know where he's going there.

[John Clay Wolf]

8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. So why don't we have any celebrities on the show today?

[Bobbo]

Bob, it's really hard to book Celebrities When JD's Not Here.

[John Clay Wolf]

Why is that? I don't know.

[Bobbo]

Just, you know, they always. All the publicists ask, is JD Ryan gonna be there? Is JD Ryan on the show? We'll do it if JD's there. Well, he's on vacation. Nope. We're sorry. Matthew McConaughey's not doing press right now.

[John Clay Wolf]

But when JD gets back, he will.

[Bobbo]

Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

We used to be better at it.

[Bobbo]

Well, Ted Nugent's pretty big time in my book.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, he was.

[Bobbo]

But there are a lot. There are a lot of them on the hook, you know, And I'm. I'm learning as I go how to.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do that with this national platform that we're walking into. You're going to get all you want, bud. Trust me. Once the word gets out that they can knock down that many markets in one deal, you're going to be like Jimmy Kimmel.

[Bobbo]

You know what? It. Rob told me, and I've just begun my assault. Okay. On the great Seth Rogen. I'm a big Seth Rogen fan. He invented this show called Preacher. Have you seen it?

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Bobbo]

Awesome TV show. It's in his third season. It's adapted from a comic book from the 90s. Anyway, I've begun shooting tweeters. Tweeter, Twits, Oklahoma Tweakers at Seth Rogen.

[Mike Turley]

You've been tweeting him.

[Bobbo]

Yeah. And you can find me on. On Twitter at Bobo on the radio.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

Okay. And when you. When you spell it without caps, it's baboon the radio, but Bobbo on the radio on Twitter.

[Bobbo]

Go. No. Tweet Seth Rogen and say, please do the John Clay Wolf show. You know, we need to get some Twitter minions. And you. You have really picked up the Twitter. You're doing it, dude. I'm really not.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm trying it until now.

[Mike Turley]

What about attention to Snapchat?

[John Clay Wolf]

I don't.

[Mike Turley]

Do you get it?

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. What I think is napchette way for people to take notes nudes of themselves and send them to other people off the radar. And it's. It's dwarf. It's morphed into that's how it began. It's just like Kim Kardashian and her sex tape. That's how the. We were in. In California this week talking about G Wagons and Kardashian and this and that. One of my kids said, what is a Kardashian? And where do I get one? And then we explained it to him and he said, well, how did they get famous? And I didn't want to tell him about the sex take with J. Ray. Yeah. So I made up a lie about how she got famous, but really, she got famous by hanging out with Paris Hilton. Anyway, where was I going with this?

[Mike Turley]

Well, there's. They're all over Snapchat and all that. I mean, that's, that's.

[John Clay Wolf]

What is Snapchat. It's a filter. Their filters for pics is. Have really gone on.

[Mike Turley]

And you. You can erase whatever you send to that person. I mean, it just goes away.

[John Clay Wolf]

But that's how it started. It's like the Kardashians still does that way.

[Mike Turley]

It still does that way. But then if you want to see save it and have everybody in the world see your snap, then you can do that too.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it's a social media platform now, but it started off as just a dirty picture platform, Correct?

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, yeah, just a way.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it worked for the Kardashians. Now it's worked for the programmers in Silicon Valley.

[Bobbo]

Because if it'll get Seth Rogen on this program, I'll do it.

[Mike Turley]

You'll snap.

[Bobbo]

I'll do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Send him a Cinema snap of your junk.

[Bobbo]

I'll snap it. He'd probably like that. He. Look at this guy.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm up. Well, I was a jet mechanic in the Marine Corps and now I'm a scout in the Army?

[John Clay Wolf]

Why would. I mean, did they assign you that or did you ask for it? Because, I mean, once you have that jet mechanic skills, you know what you're worth on the outside, right?

[Caller/Listener]

I know insurance is a son of a bitch.

[John Clay Wolf]

Insurance to be turning wrenches on those planes?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no. Insurance for my family.

Ah, gotcha, gotcha.

[Caller/Listener]

The 402. I was a Harrier mechanic. The AV8B Harrier.

[John Clay Wolf]

That still is just. I mean, I know that you live it and know it, but it still blows me away how those compressors and the blades and the whole thing works without blowing up all the time.

[Bobbo]

And they never do when you became.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, no, they do. They do.

[Norman]

They do.

[John Clay Wolf]

Don't. Don't get. Don't take it too far.

[Norman]

Remember this. When you became a mechanic, you're always going to be a mechanic. You kind of. When you think that you're out, they mechanics will reach you and grab you and pull you back in. Remember that. Who. Who is paying the. The bills?

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, that's Norman. He's our crew chief on all the inventory. Give me the van.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's working on cars all the time. Well, cool. Back to your truck. 04 Silverado Duramax with 160,000 miles. Is it lifted or is it stock?

[Caller/Listener]

Lifted.

[John Clay Wolf]

How many miles are on the tires?

[Caller/Listener]

2000.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, so you just got new tires on it? 04 with a buck 58. I need to look this one up, but I'm thinking $8,000. Maybe nine, maybe 10. Eight to 10. Let me look. Go to givemetheven.com and put the VIN number in. Or just put your license plate number in and it'll grab the VIN number off of that. And we'll email you. Send me some pictures. I want to see this lift. And show off those tires, too. Show off those pretty tires in the pictures so when my buyers see it, they'll know that they don't have be to put tires on it.

[Caller/Listener]

Thanks. Thanks, man. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Anthony in Baton Rouge. An 06 Lariat with a buck and a half on the clock average, rough or clean. And does it have a Louisiana package which is a busted windshield, wore out tires, beer cans in the back and a whiskey dent somewhere on the body.

[Mike Turley]

And duct tape on the mirror.

[Caller/Listener]

I got a dip cup inside but not in the back. But no, it's clean. I got records of when I changed the oil on time and everything else.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sounds like a four thousand dollar rig to me.

[Caller/Listener]

Four grand.

[John Clay Wolf]

154, 000 miles on an 06F150 Lariat. What's it take to buy.

[Caller/Listener]

65?

[John Clay Wolf]

See the miles on that? Damn that. What is it? A five, four engine. See they get timing change, slack app and they're. They're hard to sell.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I mean I, I took good care of it, changed everything, got upgrades whenever it needed it.

[John Clay Wolf]

When you started and you're listening quietly H your head under the hood and it's idling. Do you not hear ticking?

[Caller/Listener]

No, no.

[John Clay Wolf]

Everyone I've ever seen does. If it doesn't have that. And you'll send us a video of it idling under the hood so we can listen. I'll give you. I'll get a lot of closer to your figure if I don't have to put a timing chain set on it because that's like 1800 bucks.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, thanks. Go to givemetheven.com and load it up. 02 Camaro SS. They didn't make that in 02, did they? Wait, when did they quit? Camaros 05.

[Bobbo]

For daddy time. He loads up his one hitter, picks up a sixer for the road and heads out to the Def Leppard concert. Kids in tow. His feeling of accomplishment for finally getting it on with his sister in law was shattered when he learned that his wife put her up to it. Oh, dangs. After failing the drug test at work again, he's decided to just chill for the rest of the summer because that is what unemployment insurance is for. 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. Now.

[Bobbo]

He's a notorious womanizer.

[Animal Character]

That's what I call sexy.

[Announcer]

Now back to the John Clay Wolf show.

[John Clay Wolf]

We loud.

[Caller/Listener]

I woke up like this.

[John Clay Wolf]

Wake up flawless.

[Announcer]

Hit him up right now. 1-800-800-Radio.

[John Clay Wolf]

You are smooth.

[Announcer]

Yeah, this is the John Clay Wolf show.

[John Clay Wolf]

The notorious Womanizer was the exterminator that, that called in the first hour.

[Bobbo]

No kidding. Chris the bug man.

[John Clay Wolf]

The bug man. He had a hustle. Damn right he had a hustle. Jay in San Antonio. Good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, my name's John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey, yeah, this John, you're on the air.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay. Hey, I had a. A 2010 BMW. It's a 335i with the M Sport package. So it's got all the bells and whistles, navigation, sunroof. It's got. It's a white car. It's got a two door leather.

[John Clay Wolf]

Two two door or four door?

[Caller/Listener]

It's a four door.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. It's an M Sport 104.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, 104,000.

[John Clay Wolf]

So the problem with that car is the turn. Oh, go ahead. What?

[Caller/Listener]

I just replaced the water pump.

[John Clay Wolf]

And.

[Caller/Listener]

Spark plugs, got new tires.

[John Clay Wolf]

When you replaced the water pump, did it overheat?

[Caller/Listener]

It did. Well, but prior to, you know, I mean, that's why I replaced it.

[John Clay Wolf]

I understand. That's why I asked. So did it get any damage?

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[Bobbo]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

You sure? Because you know what it costs to fix.

[Caller/Listener]

Cost 3 grand to fix it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you already fix it?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir, I did.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm sorry about that. I'm sorry about the loss in your family, cuz I. I know how that works. And those turbochargers on that car will give problems too.

[Caller/Listener]

I haven't seen any just yet. So I'm hoping, you know.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so if we drive this car, are any lights coming on at all? Any service lights?

[Caller/Listener]

There's a blinker malfunction. I think right now that's the only one that I'm seeing.

[John Clay Wolf]

And is that when you put the blinker on and it. It blinks double time, twice as fast as it should, or is there some.

[Caller/Listener]

Tell me it says right. It says like right signal lamp malfunction.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

When I. When I'm outside of the car, I don't see it blinking, you know, twice as fast or anything.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. But there's no check engine, no abs, no airbag?

[Caller/Listener]

No, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

When we pick these cars up, we plug a scanner into it that shows stored code. So just FYI, if you cleared it at Chief auto parts, we find that when we get there and we. And we don't have. The reason I'm asking all these questions about this car is I buy these cars and I like them, but they're. They're troublesome. This twin turbo BMW with miles on them, they start kicking like Jaguars. So I'm gonna be a. It's a 2010. It's an M Sport, which is good. What color is it?

[Caller/Listener]

It's white.

[John Clay Wolf]

If it'll check out, I'll give 8,000 bucks. Well, how many miles? 104.

[Caller/Listener]

104. Right.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'll give 7,000 bucks for it. All right.

[Caller/Listener]

That's about exactly what I owe on it.

[John Clay Wolf]

I can. I can make the payoff. Who's your payoff with?

[Caller/Listener]

It's with my credit union.

[John Clay Wolf]

Easy, easy peasy. No promotion. Go to givemetheven.com. the system's probably going to hit it at five to 6,000. Say John said seven grand on the air. They'll come back and ask me if I did that and I'll say yes. And then send us the pictures and we'll line it up and get the payoff information and make the payoff for you. And if there's any equity, we'll send it to you. If there's any money owed, you send it to us. Sounds like we're within a couple hundred bucks of the payoff and we're all good.

[Bobbo]

Just me and his money.

[John Clay Wolf]

800-872-34. 800. 800 radio.

[Bobbo]

Doing that car business, man.

[John Clay Wolf]

So what is the electric fence deal?

[Bobbo]

That's our sound bite of the week.

[John Clay Wolf]

I want to hear this. What's this all about?

[Bobbo]

It's really. It's perfectly self explanatory.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

I. I really think. I think you'll. You'll get the gist of it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

Baby, they got horses.

[John Clay Wolf]

Should we tell her that fence is electric?

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hell.

[Bobbo]

What the.

[John Clay Wolf]

Baby, you're scaring the horses. Start that over. That's funny.

[Caller/Listener]

I want to hear that they got horses.

[John Clay Wolf]

Should we tell her that fence is a like her?

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[Bobbo]

Hell no.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's great. My grandpa did that to me when I was a kid on our ranch, we had an area that we were fenced off for cows. And he said take this Johnson grass blade and hit it, see if it's hot. So like I was taking a big piece of Johnson grass and going against it, going nope, nope, nope. He said put it on there a little bit longer than bam.

[Bobbo]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

And if you pee on an electric. Oh no.

[Norman]

That happens to me.

[John Clay Wolf]

All of your children will be born naked. What?

[Norman]

I think telling you that, that I went and I peed one of those wires.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you really?

[Norman]

Oh yeah. It sent me down straight to the floor. Like somebody punched me right between my eyes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Boom.

[Norman]

I was on the floor.

[Bobbo]

It's a special feeling, isn't it?

[Norman]

Oh God.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have any electric fence stories, bum?

[Bobbo]

Yeah, I lost my walkie talkie in Whit Cross's backyard one time. And I went over there to find nobody was home. And I had my BB gun and the grass was real tall. He had a hot wire for his dogs in the background. And I'm feeling around with my BB gun cuz you can't see anything. The grass was 3ft high. Oh, and I hit that wire with the end of my BB gun and I got it. Shot got me. And I. I was one of those stupid guy cuz I froze on it and I. I think I was on it for 20 seconds or so. It may have affected my head a little.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, where's the. I was thinking about the wine country up there. We were, we were in Fredericksburg picking up the kids from camp down there the other day. I mean, that's just a place for people to go and get drunk and screw. That's all they do. I mean, let's go to Fredericksburg, honey. You know, I mean if you who's going on a date like an overnight to Fredericksburg and not scored Texas. That's all it means. Antiques. I mean, who gives a hell about antiques?

[Bobbo]

Hold on, let me write that down. Chris the bug man's got us all pit up. Don't you know?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. Turley, there's no painting outside in California. And the employee labor laws are way different. Way, way, way different.

[Bobbo]

Oh, they have to paint in a shop.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes, but so get this right? Exactly. Every time I drive that highway, that would come on in my head. The if. Okay, let me get this straight. They can't work someone for more than five hours straight.

[Norman]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

And they have to take a lunch. If they don't, they're fine. You can't fire anybody.

[Norman]

No.

[John Clay Wolf]

Without writing them up and following the process. If you do three times, fine by the state. Yeah. Overtime by the day, not by the week.

[Norman]

Wow. Every over the eight hours you overtime.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you can do a 30 hour week in California and you get overtime pay if you had a 10 hour day or if you had a 14 hour day. Yep, yep.

[Mike Turley]

What's the hourly. Isn't it pretty high?

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I mean the, the, the legal. I mean it's not Texas, it's national, isn't it the middle?

[Mike Turley]

Yeah, but I thought they had. Maybe it's the Seattle.

[Norman]

The states take over that stuff sometimes and they say we even don't want to follow the federal government.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, they probably had to add two bucks an hour to it to pay their state income tax.

[Mike Turley]

I think it's higher if I'm not mistaken.

[Norman]

Well, they tax you for everything. That is a totally different way. When I came down from the north to Texas. Texas is a little more. You're more free in here than you.

[Mike Turley]

Do in other states.

[Norman]

I pay a sugar tax in, in Philadelphia for. If I get a sugar tax. And they're trying to, they're trying not to now to charge me to breathe too. They're going to pay. I'm going to be paying a tax over clean air and we, we pay that tax.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you're in Texas and you get paid in Texas. Are you having to pay Philadelphia taxes because you're a resident here? I mean you have a house.

[Norman]

I am resident here, but when I move down then Pennsylvania cannot go after my money.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. So if, if, if someone works for us in California.

[Caller/Listener]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

Are they Texas, are they Texas employees? Are they under our rules or they under theirs? If we're licensed, incorporated and everything here.

[Mike Turley]

Great question.

[Norman]

Well, I heard a man one time, I knew a man, they, he has a problem with the state because the titles went up and he decides to move the whole company out of the state.

[John Clay Wolf]

We re licensed. I know the ago you're talking about. He relicensed it to Florida and ran all the titles through Florida. Well, we're Texas and we can buy and sell in California as a dealer without being on a California dealer license.

[Norman]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

I just wonder, you know, if we have, if we send somebody out there to be our, to work in one of our give me the VIN buy centers out there, are they California? I mean do they have to. I'm gonna have to look into this.

[Norman]

Yeah, we gotta.

[John Clay Wolf]

What the Law is, are they working for us in the Texas code? Are they working for us under California code? I don't know. If anybody knows the answer to these questions, give me a buzz because I don't know anything. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Austin's a lot like that too. Linda. Speaking of in Austin. Good morning.

Yeah, Things that make you say, huh?

[John Clay Wolf]

What do you.

[Mike Turley]

What?

[Caller/Listener]

Well, I've. I've heard a little bit higher, but I'm willing to consider that we like to buy them.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I mean not, not, not being pushy, but I'd rather buy them than talk about them. What's it take to buy it? Is it for sale?

[Caller/Listener]

It is indeed.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. What's it take for me to buy it at the top of the wholesale market?

[Caller/Listener]

That's something you would have to say. I don't have any idea what the market is. I've had, let's see, I guess an individual car buyer. Give me a little more closer to the 10,000. And so I'm just calling to see if there is. If that's an inflated value and yours is more authentic.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I'm a check writer, as you know. And we'll come there and pick it up with a check in hand. So if I give you a check for 9,500, do I buy the car?

[Norman]

[John Clay Wolf]

Thank you. 800, 800, 7, 2, 3, 4. 800. Put them on hold. Prek. Tim.

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Catch me up to speed.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, I was telling a boy about first. I was calling in because you asked about the California law, Texas law, unemployment. And I explained to them that I used to work construction and I used to travel around from state to state. And when I did work in California. They did charge me state tax even though I am a Texas resident. The same thing when I worked in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, North, North Carolina, South Carolina. Everywhere I went I got charged state tax and I would. I always thought that they should have refunded me the state tax because I was not a resident of their states and I didn't work in there.

[John Clay Wolf]

But how did they charge you state tax when your Texas employer is the one who set up your payroll? You know what I'm saying?

[Caller/Listener]

I don't know that question. Yeah, I don't know why. All I know is I got charged. I being a Texas resident and the company I worked for was based out of Houston, Texas.

[John Clay Wolf]

What was it? What was the name? Was the company like Exxon or Conoco? I mean, some monster company?

[Caller/Listener]

No, it was Baker. One of the largest cast in place companies in the United States called Baker Concrete. Or at least they were.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

I don't know if they still are anymore. I left them about six years ago anyway. But yeah, that's a good. We traveled all over the place.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, that, that, that, that's a good update. I appreciate it. 800. Thanks, Tim. I just got to keep it rolling. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio will be right back. Uno momento. 444.

[Announcer]

Presented by by giveme the vid.com Time to part. Yeah, it is now. John Clay Wolf.

[John Clay Wolf]

Big Phil is online too. She just had a baby. D.J. what the hell? Who just had a baby? I can't. You gotta talk in the mic, bud.

[DJ Pre K]

Big Phil just had a baby, man. He said that he had a little boy named Tristan.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, good. Phil, are you there?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes. Hey, John.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hey. Hey.

[Caller/Listener]

I just wanted to let you. I just want to let everyone to know out there that you have the full support of the second largest auction in the country. And these people cater to you because they know that you bring phenomenal business there. And I've never seen them jump before like a frog on a tin roof to cater to you because you bring such good value to their business.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I appreciate that, Phil, and congratulations on, on having a baby. Did you, did Tristan. Did you hear Bob O. Doing an impersonation of you earlier today?

[Caller/Listener]

I did not, but I met him in person and he's hilarious. I mean, I got the thought the guy was rich little because he does voice after voice after voice. And I mean, he's very talented man. And you know what? And he's a very good man too.

[John Clay Wolf]

We have fake Big Phil here in the studio with us. Good morning, Phil. Big Phil. Phil the fake.

[Bobbo]

Yeah. I just wanted to say, John, I don't think Phil. I don't think he really knows Bob O at all. First of all, he's a fat man. Bob O. And also he's kind. He dresses a little weird. Sometimes when I listen to him on the radio, I just can't help but thinking he was eating those little burgers you had on the auction line.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Bobbo]

Eating those burgers three and four at a time. And I. I told him, you know, you're gonna get that ketchup on one of the. The cars. And your boss, John Wolf is not gonna like when. When he sees that ketchup on those cars. And you're gonna be in a lot of trouble.

[Caller/Listener]

Thank you for demoralizing me. I appreciate it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Thanks for calling in, Phil. Congratulations on the baby. Eddie in Pecos, Texas. Good morning.

[Caller/Listener]

How are you doing?

[John Clay Wolf]

We're just having fun. Just cutting a rug, man. What are you doing?

[Bobbo]

I sure do like your cars.

[John Clay Wolf]

Eddie. You got a nice one for Big Phil to lick the paint on?

[Caller/Listener]

Excuse me.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do you have a nice one that Big Phil can look at next week?

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir. It's. It's a very nice truck. Clean truck. One owner. 65, 000 mile Dodge.

[John Clay Wolf]

Here's what I see. I see 15 Hun 20, 15 3/4 ton Laramie diesel. 65, 000 miles, leather nav, no roof, four wheel drive. Yes, it is a Laramie though, because he. He put DJ Pre K. And remember we call him Pre K for a reason. But he put Laramie slt. And there's not a. There's not such a thing.

[Caller/Listener]

It's. Well, it's the. It's the top of the line Dodge truck. I don't have the truck right in front of me. It's my son's. And I was. He asked me to help him sell it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure. I'm gonna bid it as a Laramie. If it's an SLT with leather, we're gonna have to back it down some because that's like the difference between an XLT Ford and a Lariat. Obviously, the Dodge guys stole their branding. Pretty, Pretty cute, but okay.

[Caller/Listener]

665 Longhorn Edition.

[John Clay Wolf]

Do y' all have a Longhorn? Is yours a Longhorn?

[Caller/Listener]

That's what this truck is.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay then. I know it is. It's like a king ranch.

[Caller/Listener]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. What color is it? Like burgundy or white?

[Caller/Listener]

It's black. It's black with gold bottom. And then the interior is basketball leather colored.

[John Clay Wolf]

And it's got 65,000 miles on it. Has he messed with, with the emissions on it?

[Caller/Listener]

No, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good. No sunroof. Average. Rougher. Clean.

[Caller/Listener]

It's. It's very clean.

[John Clay Wolf]

What about the tire, the tires?

[Caller/Listener]

Tires are brand new.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Caller/Listener]

Got the receipt on. They don't even have 700 miles on them.

[John Clay Wolf]

I'm a $38,000 check writer.

[Caller/Listener]

That's in the money.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, I'll buy it. Go to givemetheven.com on the info box on the little form. Put talk to John on the air. He put it at 38 grand and send us some pictures and we'll get out there and get it picked up. Get your pay. Do you know if there's a payoff or is there a title?

[Caller/Listener]

There's, there's payoff.

[John Clay Wolf]

How much payoff I'll get you Roughly?

[Announcer]

More.

[John Clay Wolf]

More or less than 38?

[Caller/Listener]

Less.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, then we'll pay you the difference. We'll, we'll take the. Really, what we're doing is loaning people the money to make this their payoff. They don't see it that way, but I see it that way because I'm out the money waiting on title for a month with these banks. They're terrible about getting me titles. But anyway, we'll get it handled. We'll wrap it up and we'll do it. That's part of our service. All right. Pecos, Texas. We're gonna have to meet you in Midland somewhere.

[Caller/Listener]

That's, that's where I can have the truck. That's where he lives. So that's not a problem.

[John Clay Wolf]

Perfect man. Thanks, Ed.

And these. These leggy chicks walked up. Three of them, probably late twenties something, maybe mid twenties somethings. Okay. All tattooed up and down. Came out the pool and started taking their clothes off. They're in swimsuits, you know, nice, nice bikini swimsuits. They eat you feeling me, Norman. So I said, hi, I'm Bobbo. Because I'm like, you know, really friendly to strangers, unless they're Phil. And they were waiting for a photographer. I'm not kidding you. To do a photo shoot for Inked magazine. And they had a lot of tattoos, all three of them.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay.

[Bobbo]

Stephania and Bailey. And I can't remember the other one's name. And in about a half hour, no kidding, a photographer came, guy named Ed, very cool guy. And I'm talking to him about, you know, what he does. He's worked all over. He's shot for Playboy and just worked in la, New York, all over. And they're posing. They're posing. Have you ever. Have you ever seen a woman with a swimsuit on and high heels? Oh, there's just something. There's such an allure to it.

[DJ Pre K]

Wow.

[Bobbo]

So my excuse for hanging around and watching is I'M talking to the photographer. Right, but, but. And here's the producer side. Bob o'. Norman. Watch closely. Don't try this at home. I am a professional, okay? I'm talking the guy up because we may need photographs sometime. You know, we're talking about billboards and a TV commercial and all kinds of stuff. He's done it. He's done it all. And. And he's got a. Just a whole stable full of models.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you even suggest that you went out for drinks with the crew afterwards?

[Bobbo]

You calling me ugly is like me calling you a fat bastard.

[Norman]

No, man, just come to reality. You. That's okay. I am a sort of.
