John Clay Wolf
So here I am, sitting in my Lincoln, contemplating why I bought one of these cars. I don't own an expensive house with big glass windows. I don't have no fancy friends watching me play eight ball. I've never in my life fallen backwards into a swimming pool. And I don't normally speak with a Southern accent, but here I am, stopped in the middle of the road, contemplating why I bought this Lincoln. Oh, yeah. I'm going. I'm going. Contemplate in. Okay. And live from Dallas, Texas, it's Saturday morning. It's the John Clay Wolf show, starring John Clay Wolf with J.D. ryan, Michael Turley and Bobby Brown, and featuring DJ Pre K, Rush Limbo, Keith Richards, Randy the Chipmunk, and Satan, the Prince of Darkness. And now your host, John Clay Wolf. Is it me? Is this all. Is this thing on?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, it's you, Bobble. Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
Is that a Mick? Is that a McMars riff?
J.D. Ryan
Live on Big 100, it's the John Clay Wolf Show.
Michael Turley
Morning, Bobbo.
John Clay Wolf
It is awfully nice to see. It's your Uncle Bobbo here in the big chair. On this morning's edition of the John Clay Wolf Show. I've got my friend JD Ryan.
Michael Turley
Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
Right there nearby. You're gonna be useful today.
J.D. Ryan

John Clay Wolf
There's a. Okay, there's a. Our esteemed host.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Will email and. Or text me during the week. 40 times.
J.D. Ryan
Johnny Clay.
John Clay Wolf
Woof.
For little drops and neat things he wants to hear for the show. And there. I just. I'll be honest with you. I quit chasing him around Wednesday. Okay.
J.D. Ryan
That makes sense to me.
John Clay Wolf
You know, and you. You've had. You had messages and texts from. From our esteemed host before.
J.D. Ryan
Our esteemed host.
John Clay Wolf
I don't always know what he's talking about. I don't know where that stuff can be found there. I'm sure there are good ones in there. We'll search for them together.
All right.
During the show, tell me, my children, because I am pretty fly for a white guy.
J.D. Ryan
You are pretty fly.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't even know that was a song until somebody explained it to me.
J.D. Ryan
Then you're probably not pretty.
DJ Pre K
And you got the last second text about Quaidman.
John Clay Wolf
Right, right, right. That was a. That was a snafu. What a debacle.
Michael Turley
What happened?
DJ Pre K
We gotta explain for the big 100 listeners that didn't. Unless you listen to the podcast.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Where.
DJ Pre K
Where can you get the podcast, J.D.
J.D. Ryan
You can get it@john claywolf.com as well as the stream.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, we're only on for five hours.
J.D. Ryan
Five hours, right. So the stream is on the whole time. We started Big 100 in Washington, D.C. and we end up on the west coast throughout the day.
DJ Pre K
Well. And we're waiting all day long for Dennis Quaid. All day long.
J.D. Ryan
Dennis Quaid was going to appear at a place called Billy Bob's Texas, which is in Fort Worth, Texas. He lives in Austin. So it should be, you know, just a hop, skip and a jump. No big deal.
DJ Pre K
No.
J.D. Ryan
Up the road.
John Clay Wolf
Right. And this is. This has been arranged. I don't know if you guys are aware, for like, six weeks prior to last week's show, been talking to his lead guitarist on the road and his publicity firm in New York and his publicity firm in la, and everything was. Was built to a point where he would. He couldn't be in studio, but he was gonna call into the show live last Saturday.
Yeah.
Never happened.
J.D. Ryan
What?
John Clay Wolf
Dennis Quaid.
And as we got somebody off. Yeah. As we got into the third hour of the show and the fourth hour of the show and the fifth hour of the show in Texas. Texas started coming in. We don't know where he is. We can't find Dennis.
J.D. Ryan
We can't find him.
DJ Pre K
No. What was the one thing? Well, I think he took a flight or a private plane out or something.
J.D. Ryan
Took a private jet after the show last night. Well, no matter where he went, he was on the ground. And within about an hour and a half. No matter where he went.
John Clay Wolf
My primary contact on that whole thing was a fella named Jamie Jones.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And he. He actually played guitar with Steppenwolf for a while in the 70s. And, you know, is a. Is a. A musical guy with. With a background in rock music. Dennis Quaid has a band called the Sharks. They're touring. And we wanted to talk to him about his band and the tour and all of his movies, which we love. We're huge fans. He never called in, but we did manage to get Jamie Jones on the phone with just five minutes left to go in the show last Saturday.
DJ Pre K
And. And it was a surprise to him that he was talking about.
J.D. Ryan
Absolutely a surprise to him. I love that.
Caller/Guest
Who's this?
John Clay Wolf
Hey, this is John Wolf with the John Clay Wolf Show. We're on the air. Is this the road manager for Dennis?
Caller/Guest
Yes, it is.
John Clay Wolf
We've been. I came up here yesterday to tape with y' all and. And we've been. Or is he coming on the show today?
Caller/Guest
Well, no, I'm not the road manager. I'm the guitar player. Oh, yeah, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
You're one of the Sharks.
Caller/Guest
Well, last night. Yes, that's right. Jamie James. The last. Last night. Dennis. Dennis. Well, he, you know, he's from Houston, and we played in Houston last night in the Woodlands, and he took off in a private jet with a lot of his family after the show. I don't know if he went back to Austin to see his mother today again. You know, she's in a nursing home down there or so. I don't even know where he is right now.
John Clay Wolf
He's missing. Do we need to. We're on the air. Should I put a lookout for him? He's a funny looking guy from Mars. Like the enemy mind character.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
DJ Pre K
So.
Caller/Guest
But yeah, we'll put an ATB out. We'll put an APB out for him, that's for sure.
John Clay Wolf
What kind of private jet do you know?
Caller/Guest
You know, I don't. I don't keep track of those things, but it was fast and expensive.
John Clay Wolf
I've got another question. I mean, if you're the lead guitar player of the Sharks, why are you not on the private jet? I mean, if you're Mick Mars or Motley Crue. This is wrong. Does he think he's so cool he shouldn't have you on there with him? See, he takes the plane and you all take the bus. Is that how this works?
DJ Pre K
Yes.
Caller/Guest
Wait a minute. You know what? You're right. I'm gonna. I'm gonna address that today.
John Clay Wolf
All right? Get this straightened up. He's starting to treat you like. He's treating me like a. And neither one of us are his. You're the goddamn lead guitar player of the Sharks and I'm the goddamn radio personality on the air. And Dennis Quaid is flying around like he's something. He needs to get his ass over here, you know.
Caller/Guest
You know what, man? I'm glad I didn't even think about that. How dumb am I? I'm so glad you brought that up. No more of the road. I'm going to touch it.
J.D. Ryan
Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
I'll talk to you later.
DJ Pre K
So, you know, we got two minutes with something out of it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, it was fun.
John Clay Wolf
Here's the positive aspect of that. And you know, I'm a glass half full kind of guy.
Michael Turley
You are.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. The response from Big 100 listeners has been so overwhelming. We're so. We're so glad to see you guys, too. It's nice to have you around. This. This is still a fairly new market for us. Week five now, week six up in DC seven. You. If. If you like an underdog. If you're crazy about an underdog, that's our show. That's us. That's what we do. There you go. God, that's.
DJ Pre K
That's really kind of not. It's taboo, I guess, in the radio business to really call the road manager and put him on the air.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah, really taboo.
DJ Pre K
Seriously. I mean, I've worked in radio a long time. You have?
Caller/Guest
J.D.
DJ Pre K
I'Ve never seen it, but I love it. Yeah, I love it because it's.
John Clay Wolf
That's.
DJ Pre K
That's what John is. And that's what the show is about. We're gonna peel back that curtain and just let you know, hey, this guy hadn't called us. We're gonna call that guy on the air, the manager, find out what the hell's going on.
John Clay Wolf
Well, you play nice, nice, nice with these people, and they play nice, nice, nice with you. Then they hang you out to dry, and you're just supposed to like and say, oh, that's okay. Maybe next time.
Michael Turley
Right?
J.D. Ryan
As radio people, we just go, well, I guess, you know, whatever. Thanks, Dennis. You're the big star or nothing. Even though we're promoting your show, not on this program.
DJ Pre K
And I hate to say this.
J.D. Ryan
What?
DJ Pre K
But I'm gonna say it anyway. All right.
John Clay Wolf
No, don't do it.
DJ Pre K
His music's terrible.
J.D. Ryan
The music's awful. The worst example was when he did the Today show. And I'll try to pull that audio and we can play it a little bit. He did the Today show and just. I mean, it was like a local band on the front stage at the Holiday Inn. It was that bad.
DJ Pre K
I mean, he's.
J.D. Ryan
The band's not.
DJ Pre K
The band's great man is awesome. And there's actors that have done this before where they're like, you know, I want to do. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Bruce Willis.
DJ Pre K
It was okay. You know, it's okay. Billy Bob Thornton, which was really actually good.
J.D. Ryan
Very good.
DJ Pre K
Kind of that, I guess, country type sound to it, Right. But, yeah, this was not good.
John Clay Wolf
There was a little recording and touring operation called the blues brothers about 30 years ago. You guys probably remember that. They were successful, actually.
DJ Pre K
And you remember the most recent. This was. Happens to be the worst. Corey Feldman.
John Clay Wolf
That's right. He was terrible.
DJ Pre K
You remember he did that whole little tour, the Angels, or what he had in his background. It was like a Robert, not what's his face. I can't. I can't think what he was trying to do with it. But with the girls in the background playing the guitars and stuff like that.
J.D. Ryan
The Worst example ever was Charlie Sheen after he got kicked off.
John Clay Wolf
That's right. He did.
J.D. Ryan
Remember the tour?
John Clay Wolf
Yes, yes.
J.D. Ryan
He did a tour with nothing, with no reason. People were booing him off the stage. It was so bad. Because he's an actor. He could pull. And literally, people will show up, but people boo him off the.
DJ Pre K
Well, you want to see the train wreck?
Michael Turley
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
In that case, you're literally going for the train wreck.
John Clay Wolf
That's the Hollywood thing. Your little bit of something can look awfully good to you.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. Because you're great at one thing does not mean you're good at something else. Chevy Chase tried to do a talk show. It was the worst ever. I mean, it was. I think it was on six weeks maybe, because they couldn't figure out what.
DJ Pre K
Sometimes you just stay in your lane.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, well, that's it.
DJ Pre K
There's some actors that can do singing, like Jamie Foxx.
J.D. Ryan
Some guys can do it.
Michael Turley
He.
DJ Pre K
He had a couple songs that were hits and stuff, but there's not. There's not many in this. In this case, Quaid. Yeah. No, stay in your lane.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
Speaking of lanes, JD hey, how does traffic look?
J.D. Ryan
Let's check traffic here. Okay. In D.C. proper. Let's see. Connecticut Avenue Northwest, both ways between Cathedral Avenue Northwest and Garfield Street Northwest, single lane, just getting by there. That is a work zone. Let me see what else we have here.
DJ Pre K
No, you're real prepared, aren't you, Jim?
John Clay Wolf
Well, I am.
J.D. Ryan
I'm trying to get. Only because we only have about 60 seconds to tell it.
John Clay Wolf
Let's see.
J.D. Ryan
You're in Maryland, Md. 193 University Boulevard, both ways near 23rd Avenue. You proceed with caution. Now, they have an accident in that area and in Virginia. Let me see here. I395 northbound between VA236 Duke Street. Only the left lane is getting by. That is a work zone. Still kind of early, so a little bit of traffic. Most of the best of his work zones. And there's your big 100 traffic.
John Clay Wolf
There you go. So take us with you while you're getting around. This is the John Clay Wolf Show.
Michael Turley
I'm BOB O.
John Clay Wolf
This J.D. ryan over there, Michael Turley. And we will check in with our esteemed host, John Clay Wolf, after this on the John Clay Wolf Show. Don't go away. Less cars, more bull. The john clay wolf show.
J.D. Ryan
Beats for you.
Caller/Guest
Give me one chance, I'll make you smile Give me an inch, I'll take.
John Clay Wolf
A mile Give me your time, I'll make it worth. Give me a microphone I'll Suck. Oh, my God.
J.D. Ryan
Sorry we missed the concert.
John Clay Wolf
I don't blame that guitar player for quitting.
J.D. Ryan
This is the Today Show. This isn't like rehearsal.
DJ Pre K
So this is Quaid.
J.D. Ryan
Dennis Quaid on the Today Show. One of his songs.
John Clay Wolf
Babo, you're worse than this. I mean, better than this.
J.D. Ryan
You're better than this. Oh, ten times, quite a bit.
Caller/Guest
Thanks, man.
John Clay Wolf
I think you should do a Dennis Quaid impersonation. Oh, my God. Where's your guitar?
At that level of suck and bring it down.
You got to open your mouth wide and really clear your throat to suck that bad.
Don't be Scottish catamite.
DJ Parique, do you think that you could. Do you think you should be a Dennis Quaid hype man?
DJ Pre K
He sounds like he needs some help, that's for sure.
J.D. Ryan
As an actor, you're surrounded by people that tell you how wonderful you are. Dennis, you're amazing. So you begin to think you can do anything and no one will tell you. Dude, come here for a minute. Come here.
Michael Turley
Just.
J.D. Ryan
No, really.
Michael Turley
Come over here.
J.D. Ryan
This is not your strength. Whatever else you do, don't sing in real life. All of us have people that will tell us we suck at certain things, but as an actor, you just don't.
John Clay Wolf
Well, big 100 listenership. If you'd like your car, if you want to sell it, 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. 800, 800-723-4. Year, make, model, miles, average, rough or clean. Is that the Scorpions?
DJ Pre K
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Awesome. Have you ever seen him in concert? No.
DJ Pre K
I heard they're actually pretty good.
John Clay Wolf
Where are they from, Bob? Germany?
Yeah, they're Eastern European, I think. Ukraine.
Home of the hot women. Ukraine.
Something like that. Aren't they really?
I mean, my wife is from over there. You know, you get one.
The kings of Czechoslovakian rock and roll.
DJ Pre K
I feel like that song just follows her around when she walks into the.
J.D. Ryan
Still better than Dennis Quaid.
John Clay Wolf
You get one hunting permit per. Per family, and you get to grab you a checklist of lock in.
They're singing about big city knives where they're talking about stod.
Is that what it is? What's stod?
That's a big city.
DJ Pre K
That's the big city.
John Clay Wolf
Going to Stad in Czech.
Stad is the. Is the city in Czech. Savage.
Yeah, but we don't pronounce the G.
When I was over there in Copenhagen, I mean, it really looks like a Mentos commercial.
J.D. Ryan
Just perfect.
John Clay Wolf
Like, the sun's coming. I remember sitting there, downtown Copenhagen on the park bench, watching everybody commute to work, right? And they're on bicycles and tank tops and pretty people.
J.D. Ryan
Pretty people.
John Clay Wolf
You can hear the birds singing.
J.D. Ryan
The dog smiles, a little ding. Come on. Comes off his tooth.
John Clay Wolf
No joke. Seriously, it was that. It's like really greatness. Everybody was.
DJ Pre K
Blonde hair, blue eyes and white.
J.D. Ryan
Good morning. How are you? I'm marvelous. How are you?
John Clay Wolf
And they're so happy. Why? You know, your car is a bike and the gu. What's for lunch? Canned fish again, right?
Sardines, Herring liver spread. Just look at this. And you're like, this is disgusting. But you're so hot. I don't care.
J.D. Ryan
Don't care anymore.
DJ Pre K
They all sit on that. Wood furniture.
John Clay Wolf
Wood furniture. It's. It. It's the damn truth.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, my God, that's funny.
John Clay Wolf
And then like my. My mother in law and my wife will start talking to each other. My wife speaks perfect English. You cannot get an accent off of her. But when she's talking to her mom, you know, they start that gibberish.
J.D. Ryan
When your wife puts something on Facebook, it looks like somebody sat on a keyboard.
John Clay Wolf
But it sounds hot.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, it sounds hot.
John Clay Wolf
When they're talking, like, what are you talking to? And you're like, hey, baby, can you like, can my mom come over here for a week or two? Like, yeah, we all just sit there and talk like that.
DJ Pre K
Well, her mom's pretty young too, right?
John Clay Wolf
She's 30.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
I mean, so come on, you know.
J.D. Ryan
Wow. Ladies and gentlemen.
John Clay Wolf
No, she's. She's her mom's.
J.D. Ryan
But they all live so happy.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know. 13, 15. The. The. The difference between our ages are about the same. I think her mom's about 12 years older than me, and she's 12 years younger than me.
Michael Turley
I got you.
John Clay Wolf
But, man, I mean, I. I don't need to hear what they're saying.
J.D. Ryan
No, you don't need to know.
John Clay Wolf
I just like hearing it.
You will tell me. Where is the rabbit?
800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.
J.D. Ryan
Chicks feel that way about Italian men. They could say anything. Women are like, I'm with you.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Ride a bicycle, get blonde hair and talk gibberish. It's the best thing in the world.
Wow. I wish I thought of that.
We'll just do the rest of the show in gibberish. Need to have some Danes or Germans. Germans. It all sounds the same. Norwegian, Swedes. What the f are they saying? We don't know.
J.D. Ryan
Would she ever come in?
John Clay Wolf
We don't care what they're saying. We Just want to hear you. We want to look at you and listen. You talk.
J.D. Ryan
Just have her do some drops for us, like John Clay Wolf show.
John Clay Wolf
She won't, man. She won't do it. No, she won't. But I guarantee you she's listening right now and she's mad. Mad what?
J.D. Ryan
Said nice things about her only we love her. Even when we can't stand you, we still love.
John Clay Wolf
She won't call in.
J.D. Ryan
I know.
John Clay Wolf
We've been together for, like, 15 years.
What is that about? How am I gonna break that barrier? We've got to break that barrier.
Yeah. I don't know.
J.D. Ryan
Some people. This is in their thing.
John Clay Wolf
The whole ABBA thing, she didn't want people to know about.
J.D. Ryan
Really don't want that. I had a. I had a girlfriend when I was on a show in Dallas, Fort Worth who did like it. And you end up regretting it. Trust me. Because she then becomes part of the show and it's a character. And sometimes bad things happen to good people.
John Clay Wolf
Like, you have to have the character go.
J.D. Ryan
We would make up stuff on the weekends, just because it's radio and it's a show. We would make up a storyline on the weekend. We'd sit around drinking. Hey, what if we said this? What if we said you did this? She'd go, oh, that's a great idea. And you could say, I did this come Monday. Hey, my girlfriend this weekend did this. And this Monday night, I'm in trouble because we made up something and she heard it on the radio. It was insane. I'm like, you know, you made that up. It's not real. Right. We remember. We sat right here and you made it up.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, but she was crazy.
J.D. Ryan
But, yo, she was nuts.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Being on the radio, you started with a certifiable. Yeah, that is true.
J.D. Ryan
That is true. But still, you don't want her on the air.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but she. Well, anyway, the whole ABBA thing, she didn't want me to tell anybody that. Her mother, you know. What is it? Her grandmother's sister is the hot chick from abba.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
And that embarrasses her for some reason instead of being proud of it. I don't. Then you get money every year, every quarter. She does.
But.
Yeah. I don't know. And those ABBA people, man, you know, they sound happy in this.
J.D. Ryan
They going back on tour.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but they're kind of a bunch of a holes.
J.D. Ryan
Are they really?
John Clay Wolf
Really?
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Really behind the music.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. She's kind of got that attitude.
They appear so congenial.
Yeah. Like when we're at, like, family functions and I'm just trying to talk to her, and she's like, you know, I mean, you know, I'm the hot chick from Abbey.
J.D. Ryan
You know, I am. Right. And you know who you're not?
Michael Turley
Right.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Do you know what I'm worth? She said that one time. Do you know what I'm worth? Oh, my God.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
I'm like. Well, I don't judge people by their money. Just like I do.
That's a good line. I do.
Oh, my God. The hot chick from ABBA told me that she judges people by their money.
J.D. Ryan
No, she doesn't.
John Clay Wolf
And, I mean, that's just really non Scandinavian. You know, you're equal to me and I'm equal to you.
J.D. Ryan
That's because the ABBA people are no longer equal to those other people. Let's be honest. No matter where you go in the world, people know abba.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, well, I didn't kill the drummer, and she did.
J.D. Ryan
Jesus.
John Clay Wolf
So, no, I'm not going to talk about it.
J.D. Ryan
Let's don't talk about it.
DJ Pre K
Yeah. Wait a minute. Hold on.
John Clay Wolf
800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.
Wait a minute.
What?
There's no drummer in ABBA?
J.D. Ryan
Not anymore.
John Clay Wolf
What do you think? He's just a keyboard player and a bunch of hair.
I don't remember. Was there a drummer in abba? Holy God.
There's a drummer and everything, but. But somebody killed him, and I'm not gonna say who.
I got a new respect for that man.
He accidentally died going through a plate glass window during a recording session.
Twice.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Look it up.
Twice.
He accidentally died getting thrown. He fell through a window. What? He accidentally died falling through a window. Accidentally.
So we're down to three on ABBA now.
Dude, that was like.
J.D. Ryan
The drummer of the Swedish pop group ABBA has been found dead with his throat cut in an apparent accident at his home. Police investigated the death of Ola Burket, 61, believed he may have fallen through a glass door, wounding his neck on a shard of glass.
John Clay Wolf
These people take the music seriously.
Michael Turley
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
True story. Wow.
J.D. Ryan
They're, like, really making it up.
John Clay Wolf
This was, like, 13, 14 years ago, wasn't it?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, it was.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
So they wanted more money, Is that what you're trying to say? And so they cut him out of the band.
John Clay Wolf
Literally. Cut it. Dude, don't. I don't want to talk about family business.
J.D. Ryan
On the right, you've been cut.
John Clay Wolf
As a response to the tragic Death of Olaf Sti, plate glass windows were outlawed in Finland in 1979 Ola Brunkirk is his name. Was his name.
J.D. Ryan
Wow dude, that's real.
John Clay Wolf
I'm glad they can't hear us, man. Yeah, everybody's gonna be mad at me.
That's what you think, dude.
Why are we talking about the radio? I heard you were talking about that the radio over the States, man. You're not supposed to talk about family business.
J.D. Ryan
Died in 08.
John Clay Wolf
Oh wait, you guys are terrible.
Talking about dead Abbas. I'm offended. You just lost a listener.
Michael Turley
Oh yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Call in and tell me how bad this is. 800 872.
J.D. Ryan
That's despicable. 800800 radio.
John Clay Wolf
Well, the, the bl. Yeah, the happy one is the mean one and the nice one is the ugly one. Imagine that.
J.D. Ryan
Go figure.
John Clay Wolf
You got the blonde and the redhead.
You know there's no.
Michael Turley
They're not ugly.
John Clay Wolf
There's not an ugly abba, is it?
Well, I mean not ugly but not as good looking as the other one. But I, but I lean towards the blondes. But I mean these cows are like 68 now. So I mean neither one of them are just spring chickens.
You know, a rack built though even in the dark, you know you got your hands on an Abbas.
8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. My name's John Clay Wolf and I buy cars. Forgive me, the VIN right here. Call in, we'll be back in a sec.
Caller/Guest
This is a house that Jack Bill, y'.
Michael Turley
All.
DJ Pre K
We now return to the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
This was the land that it worked by hand. It was the dream of it. Yeah, the hot chick from ABBA is more like Ike Turner in real life than. Than what you would think kitty cat.
J.D. Ryan
Has ever been like a bit behind this music thing on them.
John Clay Wolf
Nobody knows. Man, that family stuff tight.
J.D. Ryan
You don't ask.
John Clay Wolf
I mean I'm married in and I'm you know, 7,000 miles away. They can't even pronounce my name, so it really doesn't matter.
Wow.
J.D. Ryan
And they're. They don't care.
John Clay Wolf
No, they're too rich.
J.D. Ryan
They're too rich.
John Clay Wolf
If you ever got around the ABBA people, the Abba in laws, you know, be like that movie get out.
Well my, my, my father in law is a. He's, you know, he's married in too. So this blood is from his wife.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
So he talks smack.
J.D. Ryan
You have a little.
John Clay Wolf
But his wife and that's his ex wife. So he really has some opinions about all this too. He was getting controlled by the ABBA money and getting pushed around too.
The abacult.
J.D. Ryan
It is. It apparently is. It's a deadly cold broken here on the John Clee Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. What we're talking about is my wife's grandmother's sister is the hot chick from Abbott. But are they in the Rock and roll hall of Fame? Little.
J.D. Ryan
No, I don't believe they are. I don't believe they are.
Michael Turley
But.
DJ Pre K
But will they. Maybe they'll work their way in or.
John Clay Wolf
Maybe they'll, you know, buy their way in or threaten their way in.
J.D. Ryan
Somebody killed the drummer. I never knew that story.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. You know those damn Swedes and Germans, I mean, they're a bunch of fighters. I mean, when you. When you think about Germany, what do you think about? We think about Germans. You think about cool cars. You think about Hitler?
Michael Turley
Nope.
John Clay Wolf
Gas chambers and shooting people.
J.D. Ryan
I'm gonna go with Goose.
John Clay Wolf
Threatening people. Yeah, but lots of throws, though. Lots of threats.
J.D. Ryan
No, Swedes are always the one that are in the middle going, yeah, we're just friendly.
John Clay Wolf
No, that's Switzerland.
J.D. Ryan
Switzerland?
John Clay Wolf
Yes. Swedes are a bunch of mean bastards.
DJ Pre K
I never thought of them that way.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so how many hot ass women have you ever known that were like real nice?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, you got a point.
DJ Pre K
Well, you gotta say, they're all. They all come from Sweden.
John Clay Wolf
Not me, the Swedish bikini team.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
You think they're a bunch of the. Yeah, kitty cats. No, model are bobcats. Mountain li.
DJ Pre K
You never hear anyone marrying them.
Hannah
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Cuz they're mean.
J.D. Ryan
They're mean people. What's her name? Cherise Theon. Came out. Came out this week and said she's single. I can't get anybody to date me. I bet that thing is evil.
John Clay Wolf
She said somebody needs to man up and grow, grow, grow a pair.
DJ Pre K
She's Swedish. She's Danish or Danish or whatever.
John Clay Wolf
No, she's South African, you know.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
She really literally is.
No, she's half South African, half Danish.
Yeah.
And that other mean old, what's her name? Blonde, big boobs, movie star. She's Danish, people.
J.D. Ryan
It's a lot of folks.
John Clay Wolf
Not Char, but Scarlet. Scarlet Johansson.
DJ Pre K
Johansson, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Johanson. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Char.
John Clay Wolf
These girls will kick you right in the balls, huh? Well, she. Mine won't. Mine's sweet. I got her out of there before it all set in.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, you did. You got a young.
John Clay Wolf
Got her young.
J.D. Ryan
You harvested her.
John Clay Wolf
If I left her there three more years, I wouldn't be able to live with her.
Yeah, just in the nick of time. You rescued her from the Abba cult, shunned for decades for their years of Ritual sacrifice.
J.D. Ryan
Virtually the only radio show in history to get a cease and desist from abba.
DJ Pre K
Oh, oh, it's Satan.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, of course it is.
John Clay Wolf
Where is he saying good morning as.
J.D. Ryan
Soon as we mentioned Charlize that are on here. Here comes Satan.
John Clay Wolf
Scarlett Johansson. There's a reason these girls aren't married.
Michael Turley
You guys don't know how right you are about abba or, or as Jesus said, abba.
John Clay Wolf
Whatever it takes.
Michael Turley
That's great music. You know that, that, that Ike Turner comparison. Man, if you only knew that. Agatha. Yeah, it's just a walleye. Crazy.
John Clay Wolf
That's my great great aunt in law. Be careful.
Michael Turley
Forgive my phrase.
John Clay Wolf
Listen Satan, don't be talking about my people like that. I can talk about them like that, but you can't.
Michael Turley
Forgive my phrasing, but. Holy God.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
Michael Turley
Just a bad scene. It's just a bad scene over there.
J.D. Ryan
The devil calls you bad? Yeah, I mean, just saying that whole area.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, I mean what, what did you do over there? Palestine, Germany? Why is everybody so crazy? Did you. I mean the plo.
J.D. Ryan
Are they angry?
Michael Turley
I'll tell you the truth. After about 1907, yeah. I took a long vacation and I just, I just didn't pay that much attention to that part of the world for so long. It all just again, forgive my phrasing, but it all just went straight to hell. It's just a bad scene, but I mean it's better now. It's spreading out from, from around the Mediterranean. Italy, Greece, Mesopotamia. These are the, these are the pleasant places. It's finally. The attitude's beginning to spread ever since they broke up the former Czechoslovakian republics. You know, it's better now.
John Clay Wolf
But you put all the good looking girls over there. Was there a. Was there a method to the madness?
Michael Turley
I don't know. I think that was the old man as some kind of a, some kind of a long range plan. You know, he thinks differently than we do.
J.D. Ryan
Than we do. Yeah, I'm gonna go with the big guy.
Michael Turley
Thousand years, the blink of an eye.
J.D. Ryan
And all that, right?
Michael Turley
Yeah. I mean, I don't understand you.
J.D. Ryan
I don't get it.
Michael Turley
Somebody should write a book about that.
J.D. Ryan
Scares me that I'm agreeing with you.
John Clay Wolf
Somebody should write a book.
J.D. Ryan
I think they did.
Michael Turley
Oh, hey, I gotta go guys. I've got a meeting with Mick Jaggers publicist.
Caller/Guest
Oh, what? Oh really?
Michael Turley
Mick, wish him well.
J.D. Ryan
Is he doing better? Because he went through surgery this week for a heart valve.
Michael Turley
Josh, I hope so.
J.D. Ryan
What do you mean you hope so? You.
Michael Turley
Well, I mean it's going to be bad for if the Rolling Stones are out of business. That's bad for me.
J.D. Ryan
That's not bad for you.
Michael Turley
Well, I get a lot of souls. Rolling Stones, Sure. That's a great audience.
J.D. Ryan
And we've talked about this before. What is your connection with Q. Keith, Come on. He's guy is gonna be around after roaches die.
Michael Turley
I'll tell you the truth. I didn't know how to take him early on. Yeah, about 68, he. He actually taught me how to play guitar. And so we. We managed to spend a lot of time together.
J.D. Ryan
Y' all struck a deal?
Michael Turley
Yeah, I introduced him to heroin, but I didn't mean to. But that's a long story.
J.D. Ryan
I bet it is.
Michael Turley
Anyway, he's fine. I'm fine. We're all a little worried about Mickey, so, you know, well wishes to. To the Jag man.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
So did they write this song for you?
Michael Turley
Well, they said they did. It was actually. They were singing about Cat Stevens. Do you remember Cat Stevens? Listen closely. The lyrics are all there. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Cat Stevens.
Michael Turley
I've got a. I've got a disclosure agreement. I really can't say anymore.
John Clay Wolf
Yusuf Islam, you're good for your word.
Michael Turley
The former Cat Stevens. I was supposed to say.
J.D. Ryan
Right.
John Clay Wolf
What's the name of this song?
Michael Turley
A Sympathy for the Cat. I don't know. I'm out of touch. My allergies are going crazy.
Caller/Guest
Boy.
J.D. Ryan
I'm with human. Wait, I'm sorry. Agreeing with the devil. But yeah, my allergies are out of control.
Michael Turley
Sorry, J.D. i'm not gonna tell on you.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, you might.
Michael Turley
When I know someone who might.
John Clay Wolf
All right, double go on. Scram. Scramble.
Michael Turley
We'll see you later.
John Clay Wolf
Come back later. Jason Norfolk, Virginia, Good morning. You're on the air. Jason in Virginia. Thank you. Hello. That was Satan. He. He comes and visits us for a minute. He was explaining his situation with Keith Richards. What are you doing?
Caller/Guest
The first time I've heard this show.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's fun.
Caller/Guest
Well, the friends that a friend said you could. I told him I was going to sell my Wrangler. And he said, call this radio show.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
And I said, what are you talking about? So what, do I take it to a radio station? And he's like, just listen.
John Clay Wolf
And I'm like, okay.
Caller/Guest
And I'm listening. And it's pretty funny. Anyway, I got. I got a. I don't know how it works.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
I'm pretty sure I'm ready to sell it as soon as I can.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. You got a 14 Wrangler Rubicon is what I see here. Is it a four door or two door?
Caller/Guest
It is a two door. It's a tour with the hard top. And I bought it new. It's got new tires about six months ago.
John Clay Wolf
Sticker automatic.
Caller/Guest
And it's loaded. It's an automatic.
John Clay Wolf
Is it stock or is it geeked out?
Caller/Guest
It's got some oversized tires, but other than that everything's stock.
John Clay Wolf
But it's a Rubicon, so it's got the locking differentials and it'll climb the side of a building like a billy goat.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, but yeah, mine's got, mine's the. Excuse me, the, the color match. So it's got the leather and the alpine and the. It's all.
Michael Turley
It's.
Caller/Guest
It's gray, but the top's gray. The fenders are gray.
Michael Turley
It's the good one.
John Clay Wolf
Have you ever heard the term. Have you ever heard the term horny as a two pecker billy goat?
I don't think I have.
That's kind of what this is. It's horny. It's cool. It's a climb. Right? So if it's got a clean carfax, I'm horny for this car is what I'm trying to say. I like cars. I like the right ones. This is the right one. But it's a two door. That slows it down. But it's a 14. It's four years old. 33, 000 is what I think it's worth. And when I wait just, just so you learn how to order at this restaurant. When I say what I think it's worth, that means that's what I'm offering. I'm offering you 23 grand. You say take it or leave it.
Caller/Guest
I mean, I'm in. That's. That's the number we were looking for is around 22. 23.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, that's funny. You see 23, I like 22 better than 23 because at that figure I would make. You know, if I buy it cheaper, I could make more money. Yeah, So I said 23. You said 22. You know what? I think I'm gonna go with your 22.
J.D. Ryan
You win.
John Clay Wolf
Go to givemetheven.com and load. Put in the plate number or the light or the VIN number, the computer will spit back a number. It's going to spit back somewhere between 21 and 23 is what my guess is because I program, I programmed the computer. I'll give the 23 and we'll pick it up. Do you have a clear title?
Caller/Guest
Is there a payoff no, it's paid for. That's as easy as that.
John Clay Wolf
Yep. And I will come to your. I will send. My office is an hour and a half up the street in Manheim, Pennsylvania. Maybe it's two hours from Norfolk. We'll come over to your house with a check Monday, pick it up and get the hell out of there. Thanks. Be right back. 800-800-7234. My name is John Claywolf, and I buy Jeep Wranglers on the radio from new listeners in Norfolk, Virginia.
DJ Pre K
Broadcasting live.
John Clay Wolf
From the Wolf Radio studios. It's time for the John Clay Wolf.
DJ Pre K
Show with John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, yeah. Hit him up now.
DJ Pre K
800, 800 radio.
John Clay Wolf
You'll probably be writing your own funeral. You now, time out, Jerky. John Clay Wolf. Morning, everybody.
God damn, there's a good song.
Have you ever seen Stevie Wonder's house?
J.D. Ryan
No.
John Clay Wolf
He hadn't either.
J.D. Ryan
I walked right into it.
John Clay Wolf
These nuts got him, Got him, got him.
J.D. Ryan
You did. I was with a friend of mine in. In the LAX airport, Gate one, the very first one. Stars walk by all the time. We're. We're the flight. Our flight was delayed. So everybody's standing around and. And down the way, here comes Stevie Wonder with his entourage.
Michael Turley
True story.
J.D. Ryan
Really happened. And he walks by, and my friend stands up and just as big as he can, didn't say a word, just waves at him. And everybody. Everybody's watching him.
John Clay Wolf
And he.
J.D. Ryan
Steven Wonder walks on by, of course, and he's a lousy kid. He goes, rude.
John Clay Wolf
Stevie said that?
Michael Turley
No.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, the friend.
J.D. Ryan
Big friend. Steve said rude. Everybody just cracked.
John Clay Wolf
Is he like Warren from Something About Mary? He's a little touched. She's a little tarred.
Yeah.
8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Sorry I was late to the show this morning. I was paying tribute to Russ Martin, not showing up. 800, 800 radio. 800-800-723-4. DJ Prek.
J.D. Ryan
It's funny you mentioned that name. That's who was blazing.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, really? To Stevie Wonder.
J.D. Ryan
To Stevie Wonder was funny as hell.
John Clay Wolf
So last week, dj, I had a friend call in. Yeah. To jack with you about never being with a black girl.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, man.
John Clay Wolf
And I came to find out that you hit it hook, line and sinker. And you worked with this girl and you didn't even realize it, man.
DJ Pre K
I guess, you know, the.
John Clay Wolf
The.
DJ Pre K
The good stuff's right under your nose most of the time.
John Clay Wolf
What was the deal, Turley?
DJ Pre K
So what he's not telling is after he got off the phone on the air.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
He picked up the phone and started immediately putting the game on her.
J.D. Ryan
Like, oh, he.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah.
DJ Pre K
Oh, yeah. The hard show. So she told me. She's like, yeah, man. Pre K was putting on me hard.
John Clay Wolf
If.
DJ Pre K
If I didn't. If I wasn't married, I think I might have just went ahead and drop them drawers for him.
John Clay Wolf
She's a married guy.
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Which means he's got game.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Serious.
DJ Pre K
Hey, man, the game is to be sold to you, not told to you.
John Clay Wolf
Don't hate the player, hate the game. So. So he started calling her back.
DJ Pre K
You picked up the phone when you hung up with her, or you thought you hung up, he grabbed.
John Clay Wolf
He started harassing our employee.
DJ Pre K
Well, he didn't know it was an employee until he had to go talk to her. And she's like, hey, Pri K. You know, that was me. And his face turned red.
John Clay Wolf
You have a clip of that, do you? No, no, no, that's fine.
DJ Pre K
You know what?
John Clay Wolf
Wait, wait.
DJ Pre K
I do have a clip of him dropping the. The hammer here on him. They call me the White Hammer. Okay. Hey, I'm down for it, baby. I'm just a squirrel in your world, Jackie. I mean, that's what he was pouring on that right there.
John Clay Wolf
Hey.
DJ Pre K
Almost became a victim of this game, man.
John Clay Wolf
The White Hammer and Jackie. So Pre K, there's a perfect example. I heard that out of everybody in the whole company that had to. That. That signed a release form yesterday.
Caller/Guest
Oh, you want to.
DJ Pre K
You want to reset what this is about, huh?
John Clay Wolf
I'll get there. Pre K was the one that was concerned. So what. What happened is we work in an odd environment atgivemetheven.com.
J.D. Ryan
Yes, we do.
John Clay Wolf
And there's a lot of drama and content that comes out of the buyer's room. You don't have the Hooters deal, do you? No. We got so much stuff that is so funny that comes out of our staff members. Sure. And I have to have access to that audio to play on the show, right? Legally. Legally, I do, anyway. But I just wanted everybody to realize that they're being taped or they're being recorded or anything that we pick up that's good, we can use.
Yeah, occasionally. Now, it's not like Nixon, where you've got tape recorders and cameras everywhere. Don't give that impression.
J.D. Ryan
No, not at all. No, it's just a bit. The crazy stuff that happens in a normal office. There's just not a radio show attached to it.
DJ Pre K
I did notice, though, some people started putting tape over their cameras on their Computer screens.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, the initial response was pretty weirded out a lot of people.
Well, there's nothing that's changing. Anybody that works for. Give me the vin. Nothing's changed. It's the same shtick as always. I just. I wrote a handwritten disclaimer up three years ago. It was great. Dude, do you have it?
DJ Pre K
Oh, man, I wish I did. We read it on the air.
John Clay Wolf
Do you have it?
Basically, Temperance, we're here and there's harsh language. And if you're offended or you feel put upon, please approach me or the human resources person, because that's gonna happen in this environment.
J.D. Ryan
And if. Yeah, we'll find a spot for you in the building somewhere.
DJ Pre K
If you don't like it.
John Clay Wolf
I said, if you don't like it, we'll move you.
J.D. Ryan
Basically, we'll put you somewhere else.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, in the corner. So I took this to a lawyer about eight months ago. I gave it to him and said, hey, this is our disclaimer. And should. Is. Is it okay? It's. I hand wrote it. And he's like, no, it's not okay. He's like, there's a lot of problems with this, and actually, you'd be better off not having one than having this, Michael. Then make me one. That's good. So forever, it hasn't been anything depressing, but for a long time, that's been going back and forth and. And I was like, why we're in there. Go ahead and cover television.
Sure.
Because sooner or later, it's probably gonna happen. So just go ahead and knock it all out at once. Anyway, so this document that's been brewing for six months finally was brought by Cindy yesterday and given to all the staff members to sign. And everybody's like, whoa, wait a minute. Hey, you know what's going on here? And DJ Pre K was all worried that I was trying to bury Gordium and steal his music.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
DJ Pre K
He's like, man, this. I own this song right here. John Clay Wolf didn't write this song. I did. Hey, you know, I'm just trying to get my points, man.
John Clay Wolf
You know, look, if.
DJ Pre K
If, you know, we get into some merchandise and you decide to start making DJ Pre K bobble heads or something.
John Clay Wolf
I want my cut.
No, that's a nice try, Pre K. We're gonna redesignate that made for hire.
Eyeball right here on your classic rock station.
DJ Pre K
And I was trying to explain to him, I was like, look, you made that music. That's yours. You own that, right? If you produce Something on the show, then that's John Clay for us. Yes, for us. For us. That's only fair. I mean, that's how it is.
John Clay Wolf
Dj, I want you to make a song for the show called Eyeball. Like a bit that's ours. I mean if it like hit, then I'd cut you in for some reason, but. All right, all right, all right.
DJ Pre K
I could work with that, man. As long as we cutting the trip check at the end of the day, you know, I'm. I'm still trying to get my piece of the T shirt. So I'm selling like hot cat.
John Clay Wolf
It's a team, you know, there's no Prek. There's no Prek and Team Prek. You know what I mean?
DJ Pre K
Hey, look, I got to get mine, baby.
John Clay Wolf
Okay?
No, no, brother. I made a free jingle about six years ago and I'll tell you what that's, that's playing, that's playing in a few places and I don't care wondering.
J.D. Ryan
When this is going to come back. There it is.
John Clay Wolf
So don't sweated.
DJ Pre K
So I bet.
John Clay Wolf
But Bob. Hey, Bob, I need a jingle. Yeah? What do you want it to say? I wanted to sing chorus style. Give me the vin.com and at the end, so easy, you can do it in your underwear, right? And you, you changed it a bit, sent it back to me. I said, nope, we need to quit. We need those two things. That's it. And then you sent it. I said, I like it. You said, I'm going to change it some more. And you layered in like six more. Four more voices.
Yeah.
And you brought in a girl too, didn't you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't think it could be done. I was going to show you that you do not make your own jingle, John.
Because he told me this needs to be professionally produced. We don't need to do it like this. And I, I liked the hokiness of it. And it's played, I don't know, a couple hundred thousand times.
Sell us your car so easy you can do it in your underwear.
DJ Pre K
Property of the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
So speaking, speaking of disclaimers, what about the girl?
Right? That's why I'm saying it's kind of like a work made for hire.
But who's that?
We shouldn't say because she's gonna want her cut of nothing.
She gonna want her cut of nothing?
No, she's just a co worker of mine at the time. We had fun building that deal. That was my point, Pre K. Nobody's gonna steal Anything from you. We're in this deal together.
Michael Turley
We're gonna.
John Clay Wolf
Sounds like your point is that you got robbed.
Well, and it's funny, too. Cause I am that guy on the show, so I gotta make punchlines when I can. You know, there's.
My point is pre K. Look at me. I've been sexually assaulted. But they won't sexually assault you.
DJ Pre K
We're having a me too.
John Clay Wolf
We're having a me too movement in the company. That's hilarious.
So, Bob. Oh, do you feel like you got shorted on the. On the jingle?
If I did, I'd have said so a long time ago.
Because I think you're saying something right now.
Rather. The only trouble I ever have with employers is the dollar. You know what I mean? I mean, we do spell professional with a capital P right. When we're able to write, and that's occasionally.
So the girl that sings in the. In the jingle, should we get her to sign a disclaimer?
The high notes? Nah, she'd never do it.
Okay.
You know, that's. Let's. Let's just keep it where it is. If there was any trouble.
Yeah.
I promise. I'd have brought it up a long time ago.
All right. You know, so DJ Jackie calling you, who is not Jackie. She's a. She's a woman here that called herself Jackie to flirt with you on the air. The reason I have those disclaimers is for that exact thing. So y' all were doing some unorthodox employee things.
Good work.
She was. Things that, like contingency lawyers would like to get on and press on, and I need coverage for that. So that's why I wanted you to sign. That's why I wanted everybody to sign that kind of stuff. Everybody knows that. They go along with it, or if they don't want to do it, they don't.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
But I don't want to be hearing some story later how, you know, I was. You know, he made me drop my drawers in the. In the. Behind the throne, but back in the preacher's office.
Caller/Guest
Right.
John Clay Wolf
It doesn't protect anybody doing anything illegal. It's just saying, hey, don't be butt hurt. Okay. Because it would be a sin not to tell all the great stories that come out of this environment.
DJ Pre K
Oh, there's tons.
John Clay Wolf
On a daily day to day to week to month basis. There's so much to talk about in this company.
Lieutenant Dan is the best of all time.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, yeah. There's some drama there. I mean, Hooters blow up. I mean, there's there's bits that happen all the time in the office too. Like this week we got these balls that we're supposed to sit on.
J.D. Ryan
What happened with that? I saw those. What is this exercise ball thing?
DJ Pre K
I don't know. It's some new thing to do to keep your posture good and stuff. Well, Hooter was, you know, blowing up the balls and I took a little video of him doing it. It kind of looked like he was doing something else.
John Clay Wolf
And then the pumping the balls between his legs.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And then. J.D.
Caller/Guest
Ryan, I was trying to help.
John Clay Wolf
Have you seen your video?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, I've seen the video.
Michael Turley
I was trying.
DJ Pre K
We want to post it so bad.
J.D. Ryan
You guys were going, well, these balls are. You can't sit on them. I'm like, because you didn't pump them up enough. So I said, give me the ball and give me the pump.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, but you have it between your legs.
John Clay Wolf
That's what you just ball. Can we put it on the Facebook show page?
J.D. Ryan
I don't care.
DJ Pre K
Really.
Michael Turley
Oh, good.
DJ Pre K
Okay. Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
Whoever's got it, do it now.
J.D. Ryan
Like, I haven't signed the waiver.
John Clay Wolf
Hello.
J.D. Ryan
We just talked about it. Oh, yeah, I signed it. When I first got it, I thought it was a joke. I'm like, that's hilarious. But you're like. And Michael looked at me, goes, no, you really have to sign it.
John Clay Wolf
So. So, I mean, you look like you're doing a penis pump.
Hannah
Yes, it does.
DJ Pre K
In the office.
John Clay Wolf
Not kind of. Not sort of, kind of sorta.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, like that was blowing up a boat. Anyway. Yes, I was trying to help you.
John Clay Wolf
Pa. How did the balls roll over? I didn't see it.
DJ Pre K
I used it for half the day and I didn't really care for it. It makes my ass numb.
John Clay Wolf
These are big balls that replace chairs.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, the big exercise balls you sit on and they help your core and they help you stay, you know.
DJ Pre K
But the chair I have though actually keeps my back straight, so, you know, I'm fine.
John Clay Wolf
What about everybody else? We don't just talk about uturn.
DJ Pre K
Well, you asked me and I tried it. Lieutenant Dan is trying it now too, so we'll see how it goes with him.
J.D. Ryan
And the most odd part about the videos, it'll. It clearly looks like that sounds like.
John Clay Wolf
A one legged man in a ball kicking contest.
It literally is.
Yes, it is. We'll be right back.
Caller/Guest
This is Gabriel in Austin, Texas, and I'm very offended by the John.
John Clay Wolf
Now back to the John Clay Wolf show. Where was he from?
DJ Pre K
Yeah, he's Houston.
John Clay Wolf
He's dumb. He's dumb. Got to just go kill himself.
Oh, no.
DJ Pre K
Now, see, that's why he's offended. He just offended another caller, I'm sure.
John Clay Wolf
Or you just lost a listener.
You just lost a grunge rock singer.
J.D. Ryan
The Kurt Cobain thing stirs lots of what?
John Clay Wolf
People up still today.
J.D. Ryan
Courtney. Courtney did it.
John Clay Wolf
My name is Kurt Cobain, and I'm offended that John just said he should go kill himself.
The last words Kurt Cobain spoke in this world were.
J.D. Ryan
Were what?
John Clay Wolf
Correctamundo.
No, that's an old, old, old callback. That was like seven years ago. That was a great old bit, actually, Turley. If we can dig that up somehow during the show and play it later, I think this would be a good weekend to play it on the anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death.
Oh, is it the anniversary?
Yeah, that's the deal. He died yesterday.
J.D. Ryan
Yesterday?
John Clay Wolf
No.
Was it 15 years ago? 10 years ago? 12 years ago.
Damn, I missed it.
You missed what? Elvis.
The Cobain.
An Elvis died again. It should have been Dennis Quaid. It should have been Dennis Quaid. We'd have been better off if it would have been Dennis Quaid and Kurt Cobain was still alive.
J.D. Ryan
April 8, 1994.
John Clay Wolf
Why are these saying so it's not. Today's the 5th. Isn't it 6?
J.D. Ryan
Today's 6. So it's coming up Monday.
DJ Pre K
Monday.
John Clay Wolf
So should we play it on Monday?
DJ Pre K
We're not about the air Monday.
John Clay Wolf
We're not on the air Monday. I think we should get on the air Monday and play it. Or send it out to all of our affiliates to play.
J.D. Ryan
Hard to believe. It's been that long.
John Clay Wolf
How long?
J.D. Ryan
25, I think they.
John Clay Wolf
Shut up, J.D. he didn't kill himself in 94.
Yes, he did. Yes, he did.
It's been that long.
My friends and I, Rod, old Rod Pulaski, Doc Jones, were sitting at my apartment at about 11 in the morning.
J.D. Ryan
Sorry, John.
John Clay Wolf
And Kurt, what's his name? Came on MTV News.
Did you get it?
DJ Pre K
I remember I was in high school. It was huge. It broke in and everybody was.
John Clay Wolf
Do you have a gunshot? And we can replay the news clip.
Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain is dead, an apparent suicide. And Seattle. And then for some reason, the Stones were touring. I think it was their voodoo lounge thing at that time or something. And they went to a clip of Keith Richards. They were asking about this. I swear to God, this is true. Not joking. And they said, keith, what do you think about the news of Kurt Cobain? He goes, you know. They laugh so seriously, like that you should have fun. Otherwise you're like, boom. Cut Cobain.
Is that what he really said?
That's literally what he said. You're like, boom, Kurt Cobain.
Before people start calling in and emailing and texting that we're, you know, how dare you make fun or find light in suicide. Yeah, it's kind of like the cripple jokes. You can do it when you had somebody, if you have a brother, sister commit suicide.
Right.
Then you're okay, you're close enough to it. As long as we're talking about happy.
J.D. Ryan
Moments right before anybody uplifting stories and screams at me. It was April 5th, 5th, 1994. Don't yell at me. It was April.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so what's today?
J.D. Ryan
Today is the 6th.
DJ Pre K
Well, and finish your point, John, cuz that's pretty important.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, my, my sister killed herself. She's 21 years old. It's not funny. I'm not laughing.
No, but the more we talk about it, I think the better we do in the world.
Yeah.
You know, remember the Venezuela thing a couple weeks ago? People were so mad about that. You know, we've brought attention to an issue with that joke. That's part of what comedy can do.
Yeah. Division by union, by division. Yeah, yeah. You throw it out there. It's kind of like the racial crap. We, we throw it out there and get them, get them listening and then bring it all together. It's opposite of racism. It's, it's, it's a unity by division. Look it up. 800-800-7 2, 3, 4. Steven. Fort Worth. A 14 blacked out express two wheel drive crew cab with 95,000 miles. Regular cab or. Oh, it's a crew cab does that. I'll give 12,000. For a little higher. It's got a hundred thousand miles on it and it's a Dodge. Right. And, and that is the truck of most. It's like the most bulldozer operators that you know and I know drive a Dodge.
Caller/Guest
I mean, well, I mean it's a hell of a truck. It's a rocket ship. But we're, we're got some kids on the way and not exactly conducive to that.
John Clay Wolf
What is your payoff?
Caller/Guest
Payoff is 10,000.
John Clay Wolf
You know, I may go 13 go to givemetheven.com givemetheven.com I sold one yesterday for 135 and it had 62,000 miles on it. Yours has 99. I didn't 95. I gave 135 and then I shipped it and I detailed it. And I sold it. And I paid a buyer 100 to buy it. And I paid the auction selfie and I sold it for 13. 5. So quick math. I lost about 500 bucks. So that's what I'm saying. Your car's worth about 12 with 95 on it. Maybe 12, 5, maybe 13, depending on mine. Had a dented bumper on the S end of it. Is yours. Perfect.
Caller/Guest
Now it's got a couple. Couple kisses from somehow from a couple weeks ago, but.
John Clay Wolf
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, everybody.
Caller/Guest
Y' all didn't ask me about that.
John Clay Wolf
A couple of kisses hit the Jake break.
Caller/Guest
A couple.
John Clay Wolf
A couple of kisses from some hail a couple weeks ago. JD the hail that we had over in North Texas a couple weeks ago was like so damning that it totally.
Caller/Guest
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Michael Turley
It.
Caller/Guest
It wasn't that. It wasn't Armageddon like up there.
John Clay Wolf
No. Hell no. Okay.
Caller/Guest
That would have totaled this thing up.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Well, how much. How much was your hail check? Eight or ten thousand.
Caller/Guest
For the truck. It was like 1800.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, good. All right, so. So it's 1800. Inhale. All right. And you didn't fix it and your payoff's 10, so. Really? Yeah, I think my offer. I don't know if I'm still good at 12, but I might be. Go to givemetheven.com. load it up. Caesar. An 06F 350 King Ranch. 170,000 miles. Powerstroke. Is it smoking or the injector screwed up like every other high mileage 6 liter powerstroke in the world? Oh, hell no.
Caller/Guest

J.D. Ryan
Correct.
John Clay Wolf
That's great for easy as a. As a wordsmith. Well played, sir. Well played, sir.
$2,500 in ale.
By the way, I got a couple of kisses from some hail on the trip.
That's like. Why do you have lipstick on your unit? Oh, I just got a couple of kisses.
J.D. Ryan
Couple little kisses.
John Clay Wolf
Me too. Movement goes on and on.
We'll be right back, Everybody.

John Clay Wolf
800-800-7234. Kyle 07 cobalt with a buck 18 is worth $2,000 if it's in good shape. It is in excellent shape.
It was driven by my great grandmother.
Go to give me the one stain on the seat.
Guy.
One stain on the seat, man.
Caller/Guest
That's it.
John Clay Wolf
Like a blood stain?
Caller/Guest
No, no. Blitz pains, man.
John Clay Wolf
I don't even know what it is.
Caller/Guest
Probably coffee or something.
John Clay Wolf
It's not Kurt Cobain. It's not a Kurt Cobain memorial car with blood stained seats?
No, man.
Caller/Guest
It'd probably be worth more then, right?
John Clay Wolf
Absolutely. Yeah. We'll give a. We'll give 1900 for it. So it leaves me 100 to get rid of all the blood.
DJ Pre K
He said there's no blood.
John Clay Wolf
Not blood, no. I'll give two. I'll give two grand. Go to givemetheven.com I believe I'll take.
The standard addition for celebrity DNA.
Chris in Arlington, Virginia. 98 Camry Deluxe with 80,000 miles leather roof. Is it a six cylinder, an eight?
Caller/Guest
Oh, it's a six.
John Clay Wolf
Rust. Yes. No.
Caller/Guest
No, no. It's been been living underground. I call it the Morlock car.
John Clay Wolf
Is it screwed up? I mean, it's old, but the miles are pretty good. But the body style kind of sucks because it's so old.
Caller/Guest
Oh, well, the body is. The body's in fine shape.
John Clay Wolf
No, I know that I said the body style. So like how old are you, Chris?
Caller/Guest
I'm 52.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so if a really hot 82 year old lady wanted to get it on, you'd be like, God, you got a great body, but you're 82. This is amazing. I mean, I don't know what to do. I want to do it, but I don't want to. Don't. It's kind of like riding a bicycle. It's fun until your friends see you on it.
Caller/Guest
So you just don't worry about your friends.
DJ Pre K
Think.
Caller/Guest
Turn the lights off.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well. Well, I'm gonna give 1500, maybe two GS for this old ass Camry.
Caller/Guest
Really? Wow. Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Go to givemethevan.com thank you, thank you, thank you. Okay, Rocky in Oklahoma City and 06 Cobalt. Rocky, I'm gonna give a thousand for your cobalt versus the other guy that I gave to. Because you're from Oklahoma. No offense, but he's from Oklahoma. Do what?
Michael Turley
Oklahoma.
Caller/Guest
I'm actually from Texas, man.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, it Says Oklahoma on your, on your caller thing. I guess you have an Oklahoma.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So hang on, we've got to do some investigation here. So you have Oklahoma ties. Were you raised in Oklahoma?
Caller/Guest
No, sir, I was born and raised in Texas.
John Clay Wolf
Why do you have an Oklahoma area code?
Caller/Guest
I lost you.
John Clay Wolf
Why do you have an Oklahoma area code?
Caller/Guest
Because that's. I moved here.
John Clay Wolf
I understand you trying to distance yourself from the facts, but the facts are still that some, some. Do you live in Oklahoma?
Caller/Guest
Yes. Yes.
John Clay Wolf
It's a thousand dollar deduct right off the top.
It's not fair.
All right, so 800, 807. No, the car's got 124 versus 111 and the, the dollar amount's different and, and it's going to be rougher because it lives on the other side of the Red River. 8008-0072-3480-0800.
J.D. Ryan
We do not do that to every car radio.
John Clay Wolf
Every time we cross that Red river, boy, your mama goes to running around and I start stealing things. Doyle Davis told me a long time ago. Okay, so this is the weekend to remember Kurt Cobain.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Was it really 20 something years ago?
J.D. Ryan
Five years ago yesterday?
John Clay Wolf
Wallace Edwards. We've been doing this show. There's new listeners, there's old listeners. We've been doing this show for 13 years. Thirteen years. About seven years ago, we did a little bit where our fake news reporter, Wallace Edwards, and that's a bit where we're making fun of another guy that does radio in Dallas Fort Worth. And for those of y' all who know Ed Wallace, you'll pick up on the banter. It says it's a stab at him. He had a cease and desist put on.
J.D. Ryan
Did he really?
John Clay Wolf
About 10 years ago. And I just kept doing it.
It's more of an homage to him.
J.D. Ryan
It really kind of is.
John Clay Wolf
You can't cease and desist a fake.
DJ Pre K
His name is Wallace Edwards. It's not the same.
John Clay Wolf
Right. Well, but the guy's name is not his real name. Like that's his pen name to begin with.
J.D. Ryan
Exactly.
John Clay Wolf
So anyway, I don't care about all that. Here's. I care about Kirk and I care about Fonzie from Happy Days.
J.D. Ryan
I think it's Kirk.
John Clay Wolf
That's what I care about. Oh yeah, whatever his name is. And I want to play this. So go ahead, Turley.
1, 2, 3 o' clock, 4 o'.
J.D. Ryan
Clock rock 9, 10, 11 o', clock, 12 o' clock rock we're going to.
John Clay Wolf
Rock, rock, rock, rock Time for This week's Today in Rock History.
Telling the.
DJ Pre K
True life stories of rock's most legendary.
John Clay Wolf
Performers today in rock history with real deal historian and scholar Wallace Edwards. Wallace, are you here?
Right here, John.
Wallace, it's great to see you. We have Wallace Edwards. It is that time for our rock and roll minute. This, this Week in Rock and Roll history. What, what, what's the subject today?
WALLACE Nirvana?
JOHN okay, it's Nirvana. We'll take it away. WALLACE.
In the annals of rock history, it's difficult to find an act who achieved more artistic, critical and commercial success in as short a time as the Seattle band Nirvana. In just four short years, and with only three studio albums to their credit, Nirvana not only pioneered what would become the virtually genre shattering new alternative style known as grunge rock, they also sold a total of more than 50 million albums worldwide. And all to the great dismay of their lead singer and frontman, whose untimely demise would bring about the quick end of the Nirvana era. And all as the result of what for years was believed to be a single self inflicted gunshot wound to the head. But 16 years later, there's a lot more we now know about the sad, strange death of Kurt Cobain. By 1994, tired of touring, out of song ideas, and plagued by chronic bronchitis, irritable bowel syndrome, and almost unbearable body odor caused by wearing the same flannel shirts for weeks at a time, in addition to an inordinate amount of garlic in his diet, Kurt Cobain entered an opiate rehab in Los Angeles, hoping to somehow curb his heroin addiction. However, after only 12 full minutes on the program, he scaled the wall, bought a plane ticket back to Seattle, and wasn't seen by anyone for at least 48 hours until he was found dead in an upstairs garage apartment in back of his own home, a rental property being leased at the time by actor Henry Winkler, better known as Arthur Fonzarelli from TV's Happy Days. And that's where the line skews between public knowledge and the reality concerning Kurt Cobain's death. It's now known that Winkler was there at the time of Kurt's arrival and that the first shell fired from Kurt Cobain's shotgun was actually aimed at Winkler. In his drug induced state, Cobain either thought he'd encountered an intruder on the premises or was hallucinating characters from old TV shows. Either way, as Henry Winkler attempted to wrestle the shotgun away from the incredible, increasingly panicked and hysterical Cobain, the singer, while still attempting to kill his imagined assailant, managed to shoot himself a total of four times. Once in each foot through the left knee, and finally right through his chin. In fact, it was only this last fatal shot that came anywhere close to its mark. Because just as the actor managed to get both hands around the end of the barrel of the gun, the same shot that killed Kurt Cobain is also the one that blew both thumbs off the hands of Henry Winkler, making Fonzie's trademark thumbs up gesture a virtual impossibility. Therefore ruling out any thoughts of a Happy Days reunion in the future. And for the record, according to Cobain's always present micro recorder, which captured the whole scenario on tape, his last word was not Francis, the name of his infant daughter. The last word uttered by the late, great Kurt Cobain in this world. It was correctamundo. And that's this week's Today in Rock history. I'm Wallace Edwards.
Oh, we need to do that again in a couple hours for everybody that missed it a especially. I mean, this is the silver anniversary.
DJ Pre K
I forgot. That was such a crazy scene.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, who. Who would have thought? What's funny is you said that was 16 years ago, so that was nine years ago. We did that. Yeah.
That's incredible.
Michael Turley
Correct.
John Clay Wolf
It's true what they say, that the truth is stranger than fiction. Isn't it, man?
Preston, a 12 lariat with a buck 10 on it's got to be worth 10 on a. 30 grand. No. 28 grand. No, no, no. 27 grand. You there?

John Clay Wolf
If you're a girl and you want to talk to a white Black Guy, call 800-800-7234. Especially if you want a date, you might have to pay for it. I mean, like, when it comes time to pay the dinner bill, he's gonna come. He's gonna come up with a quick, sudden case of the shorts. Hey, I left my wallet in my Cadillac.

J.D. Ryan
SBE side rest side boom side boob exposure.
John Clay Wolf
800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800 radio Harvey. That old Benz, man, that ain't worth a lot with those miles on it. No, they don't bring much because they break down and nobody can afford to fix them. It's amazing that a hundred thousand dollar car is worth 2,000 now. But as that.
Caller/Guest
Really?
John Clay Wolf
That's the money on it, huh? You don't believe me, ask my manager downstairs. He bought one for that. And guess where it is now.
J.D. Ryan
Where is it parked?
John Clay Wolf
Because he can't afford. He can't afford to fix it. He shouldn't want to spend the money to fix it because the airbags went out. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800.
J.D. Ryan
Parked very much like Pre K's car that we have money set aside for. Somebody just asked on our Facebook page. John Clay Wolf Show. Hey, whatever happened to that money Pre K set aside for his like any white black kid?
John Clay Wolf
Well, he got some scholarship money.
He's.
Listen, he didn't Go sign up for college.
He's a little touchy about it too.
DJ Pre K
I got that scholarship money, you know, they. They gave me a full ride basketball, but I just got caught up in the streets, man.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, man.
DJ Pre K
Caught up in the streets. I'm still planning on it, man. We just gotta. I gotta get out these streets, man.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. DJ Pre K, what do you've got for us this morning? Did you say you have a white, black, Latino or other? Or what were they on? Or what are we doing next?
DJ Pre K
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got both. Let's.
John Clay Wolf
Let's see what we could do with the.
DJ Pre K
What were they on, man? So I'm gonna read a little news story and y' all just guess, you know, what the culprit or the victim was on. All right?
John Clay Wolf
You are now about to witness the strength of street.
Whitey, blackie, everybody.
DJ Pre K
Seattle, Washington, you know, the. The home of rain and just sad in general. But our. Our victim, I should say, was a man who had, you know, had his fair share of problems. You know, he had just gotten out of drug rehab and all this, you know, dealing with a few things here and there. But our.
John Clay Wolf
He was having some security.
J.D. Ryan
So he was in a depressed area, not feeling great.
DJ Pre K
You in Seattle, I mean, what's he gonna do?
J.D. Ryan
Dark, it's rainy.
DJ Pre K
But I guess, you know, he was having some security installed in his home. And our boy came through and found him laying around.
John Clay Wolf
He said, oh, hey, you know, is he asleep or something? But nope.
DJ Pre K
Our victim was found with a shotgun strewn aside by him and a very serious bullet wound to the head. And some people say that his. His girlfriend might have had something to do with it.
John Clay Wolf
So.
J.D. Ryan
Wait a minute.
DJ Pre K
It's a sticky scene.
John Clay Wolf
Is this a white, black, Latino or other?
DJ Pre K
Or were they on. We going to guess what they were on this time around?
J.D. Ryan
Did this happen recently?
John Clay Wolf
Let's see. Let me.
J.D. Ryan
Cuz it's real familiar.
DJ Pre K
Oh, April 8, 1994.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, Jesus.
John Clay Wolf
It's not.
DJ Pre K
I think we know what he's saying now.
John Clay Wolf
I think he was on crystal meth.
Caller/Guest
No.
John Clay Wolf
What do they use on.
DJ Pre K
Left a note too. Oh, did he really?
John Clay Wolf
Did he say what he was on?
DJ Pre K
Toxicology reports say what he was on.
John Clay Wolf
What does this say? Hang on, let's all guess.
Caller/Guest
First.
DJ Pre K
I think we know.
John Clay Wolf
God well, jd. Jd since he's an alcoholic, he's rehabbed. Alcoholic for the decade. He always says he's drunk.
J.D. Ryan
He's trying to be. I bet he was. There had to be alcohol involved somehow.
John Clay Wolf
He's certainly acting drunk. Sure. I think it was Ms. Scarlet in the billiard room probably.
DJ Pre K
Come on. He's on heroin.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, was it heroin?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
DJ Pre K
You don't remember the story?
J.D. Ryan
Not really. I wasn't that into Kurt Cobain and that stuff 25 years ago. I was more into George Strait.
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
DJ Pre K
Are we right? Kurt took a trip down to H town.
John Clay Wolf
H town.
DJ Pre K
Thank you.
Michael Turley
No problem.
John Clay Wolf
I can't believe you guys are joking about Kurt Cobain. You're disgusting.
I'm not joking. He's dead.
You just lost a listener.
800-800-723-4.
J.D. Ryan
We're not joking.
John Clay Wolf
800, 800 radio. I told you about the night I was in Shreveport, Louisiana is driving through for no reason. I look at the marquee at the downtown theater and the cult playing tonight and I randomly walked in there. Was awesome.
J.D. Ryan
Was it really? It wasn't sad. It seems cult. I mean, it's simply there a lot of people there. I know. Oh, really?
John Clay Wolf
I'm just thinking that guy was just kicking that ass. Turn it up, Turley.
Those medium sized venues, man, will book some acts sometimes, you know.
Brother still got to make a living, man.
J.D. Ryan
The way you set it up like a Wednesday night, you know, nobody was there.
John Clay Wolf
It was. There were people there, but it was just so random to see the culture. And one of my favorite bands, you know, in the 80s and the guy sounded just like he did on the album.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, they opened up for. Was it Guns N Roses and they were really good.
John Clay Wolf
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
DJ Pre K
You don't remember that? We're kind of in a different zone.
J.D. Ryan
Walking through the state fair one time and I was Wednesday afternoon and I hear this, this cover band. What I think is a cover band. God, that guy is really. Sounds a lot like Eddie Money. And it's not even the main stage stage, it's a side stage. And I walk up and there's Eddie Money Wednesday afternoon.
John Clay Wolf
Oh yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Two tickets to paradise.
John Clay Wolf
Got to make a living.
J.D. Ryan
Oh my Lord, that was sad.
John Clay Wolf
Will a Mustang GT do 185 miles per hour? I see this on your clips here, JD News.
Yeah, that's a. That's a crazy story.
Is that where. I mean, so is it a stock Mustang?
J.D. Ryan
Well, actually a guy in Mississippi live streamed himself as he took his mustang up to 185 miles an hour. This was Monday night. And of course somebody called the cops. We have audio for this now we're going 70.
John Clay Wolf
I'll show you when I shift a third.
J.D. Ryan
Nail it.
Michael Turley
So.
John Clay Wolf
Get it.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
90, 100, 110, 4th, 1201-301401-50160. It's the disco stuff. 170, 75, 180, 185, 95.
Caller/Guest
Three cops.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
They're fixing to take me to jail. What's going on, Officer? What's your problem driving so fast? Sir, what are you doing driving so fast? Coming out 471. I haven't been driving fast. He still live right now, right there on the passenger seat. Is there a law against being on on live being reckless? Yes. You going 100 miles an hour, dude.
Caller/Guest
Wasn't me. Wasn't you.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I get paid to be on YouTube. That's the only reason it's live. Don't care. You know, if you video it. And nothing wrong with.
Caller/Guest
I video every day of my life.
John Clay Wolf
I video while I take too it.
Caller/Guest
Go to a drive strip and do it.
John Clay Wolf
Don't be down out here on my highway. That be pretty cool. Appreciate everything y' all do, officers. Y' all be safe.
J.D. Ryan
The police did watch the video later they also found out he was a convicted felon.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, really?
J.D. Ryan
Arrested him? Yes. So the cops went, oh, look, there's video proof you're doing 185.
DJ Pre K
I don't think that was. That was stock. Didn't it sound stock to you?
John Clay Wolf
It sounds stock, but I just can't imagine a stock gt. Stock GT won't do that, first of all. It just won't. Now a Cobra, a GT500 something. Yeah, that new three GT350R maybe so. I mean, the fastest I've been in a car is 188 and a.
God, that's fast.
J.D. Ryan
What was that in?
John Clay Wolf
A turbo Porsche and an Audi R8. And.
DJ Pre K
Oh, this is several times I've done.
John Clay Wolf
It a few times. That's about where my comfort level stops. Yeah. 180s. There's a tollway in Texas that is perfect.
J.D. Ryan
I know what you're talking about.
John Clay Wolf
I'm not gonna say where.
J.D. Ryan
No, don't.
John Clay Wolf
But it's, It's. I mean, it's. It's better than Texas motor speedway.
DJ Pre K
Mine's 150. So you're a little more braver than me.
John Clay Wolf
Well, and I remember my high was 140 back in high school when I had M3 at a 90. 91. M3. And then. So for the longest time, I didn't get to that new level. I didn't find that new vein until just about six years ago in that red turbo Porsche was brand new. We bought a trade in.
J.D. Ryan
It's very Expensive car recommending this.
John Clay Wolf
It did.
The scary thing, JD is it felt good.
J.D. Ryan
Did it really?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it'. You didn't feel out of control. You didn't feel like you're pushing that 185 and that 911, that Turbo Porsche.
Michael Turley
Right.
J.D. Ryan
Felt more out of control, more in.
John Clay Wolf
Control than the 140 in the BMW M3.
They're so close to the ground, though, doing that fast, man.
I mean, if a, if a hog. And I know people are laughing around the country saying, why would a hog walk out? Because in this part of Texas, there's a hog problem. And if a hog walked out on.
J.D. Ryan
The road, or deer or dog.
John Clay Wolf
Or a deer or a dog, or.
J.D. Ryan
You hit a screwdriver or, or.
John Clay Wolf
Or a nail or a.
J.D. Ryan
Or a staple, you're done.
John Clay Wolf
You're done.
Yeah.
So it's really a bad idea. Yeah, Terrible, terrible, terrible idea. But I would like to go to Texas Motor Speedway or any of the speedways and do that on a track. What's the fastest you've been in a car bomb?
120.
Yeah.
And that scared me to death. I. I won't do over 100 anymore. Never again. I want to live. I want to live.
I've had a lot of McLarens, and, dude, at 120, you feel like 60 in a Tahoe.
J.D. Ryan
It's not even loping.
John Clay Wolf
No. And you're not even feeling weird.
J.D. Ryan
That's great.
John Clay Wolf
You're actually feeling better. It feels weird when you're going slow. It feels uncomfortable when you're going slow. When you're on, it feels better.
J.D. Ryan
Gotcha. I've done mid-60s, 160.
John Clay Wolf
Here's another license plate delivery for you.
DJ Pre K
And this time he's got food.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, listen, listen. Come here, come here.
J.D. Ryan
Gentlemen, a gentleman just walked in our studio.
John Clay Wolf
Crap. Again. Listen, these. These people. The buyer's room. That must be a new buyer. I don't know your name. What's your name? Yeah. Zaden. So here's. Here's the deal. These guys downstairs in the buyer's room, there's 50 people down there at the. Give me the VIN buyers room. And they think it's funny.
J.D. Ryan
They're dying right now to send s.
John Clay Wolf
New employees upstairs while we're on the show in the middle of the show, and they hand him a license plate, say, John really, really needs this.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Whatever you do.
John Clay Wolf
And if he's not going to look at you, he's not going to talk to you. But make sure you get to him and make sure you like he needs it.
It's just another way to haze the fng. Right?
Yeah.
He bought his first car. That's his first license.
The good news is you brought breakfast burritos.
DJ Pre K
Did, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Thank job, yes. Where are you from? Arlington. Arlington, Texas. Good, good. We're glad to have you.
J.D. Ryan
You're not the guy that brought the license plate. You're the guy that brought.
John Clay Wolf
That's right. My name is John Clay Wolf and I buy cars on the radio. Honolulu, Hawaii. Online too. We'll be right back.
DJ Pre K
We now return to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by. By givemethe vin.com Now, John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
John in Louisiana has a Hyundai Sonata with 80,000 miles and the front bumpers knocked off of it. Imagine that. There's no way. Duct tape. There's no way that happened. Johnny, you there?
Yeah, I'm here.
Caller/Guest
The front bumper's not knocked off. It has a crack in it. And I would say it does have to be replaced.
John Clay Wolf
Was alcohol involved in any form?
Caller/Guest
No. A tire commuting back from Baton Rouge, unfortunately from another car.
John Clay Wolf
Do you think the tire came off of a drunk person's car? I just can't see any. All automobile damage or stories that are in that. In that area of the world seem to have out be alcohol related.
Caller/Guest
There's probably some truth to that, but not. Not for us. Not in this case.
John Clay Wolf
Is it leather? Cloth?
Caller/Guest
It's cloth. It's. Everything else is honestly in really, really good condition. That I'd say that's the only flaw.
John Clay Wolf
Does six grand buy it?
Caller/Guest
I think we. We'd want a little more than that.
John Clay Wolf
Who's we?
Caller/Guest
I'll be. My wife.
John Clay Wolf
Where's she?
Caller/Guest
Get her on the phone right next to me.
John Clay Wolf
All right. I mean. I mean, if there's more than one decision maker, we all need to. We need to get together. Yes.
Caller/Guest
All right.
John Clay Wolf
Honey? Honey, can you hear me?
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so I offered him. I offered him six grand. He said we. We need more. So what. What does it take to buy it?
Caller/Guest
8.
John Clay Wolf
8. Okay. Is it a SC. A Limited, a Sport or an Eco?
Caller/Guest
Sports.
John Clay Wolf
Sport. 2.4 liter or 2.0? Literally?
Caller/Guest
Yeah, 2.4.
John Clay Wolf
Honey knows Honey's the gearhead of the house. I like it. I like it. I like it. And hubby swears there was no alcohol involved, but he was lying. But that's fine. Honey knows better than that, too. Okay, so how. So is it leather cloth? You told me and I forgot it's false. Okay. How much does it cost to fix the bumper?
Caller/Guest
I haven't called Any body shops? I found a OEM painted replacement for about 580 online, so I would guess probably a thousand. And that's why.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so let's do the split. Let's. I'll split the difference with you. What's a quick math on that, J.D.
Ryan?
J.D. Ryan
No clue.
John Clay Wolf
It's called seven.
J.D. Ryan
Seven.
John Clay Wolf
He's eight, I'm six. Split the differences.
J.D. Ryan
Seven seven.
John Clay Wolf
John, are you going to take my $7,000 in in exchange for your mild out wreck Hyundai? Are you going to get strong and keep your mild out rect Hyundai?
Caller/Guest
I think, I think we'll discuss it. I think it's a fair offer but I think.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, yeah.
Somebody get my wife on the phone.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I get his wife on the phone.
John Clay Wolf
My wife won't get on the air so I'll just deal with Hannah. She's a good negotiator. Have you ever heard our in house stripper, we have a topless dancer, Hannah. She, you know, I mean, you know. Have you ever been to a strip club, John?
Hannah
He's not gonna tell. He's not gonna tell you.
John Clay Wolf
I lost him. Can you imagine that?
J.D. Ryan
Did he.
John Clay Wolf
Oh man.
J.D. Ryan
Wife said you hang up right now.
John Clay Wolf
Have you ever been to a strip club, John? He's got his wife next to him and he hangs up.
DJ Pre K
He was like, ah, we lost him, Babe. I don't know what he was talking about.
Hannah
I'm gonna get a straight answer. That's the story.
John Clay Wolf
Let me give a shout out to Babe, Honey, just go to givemetheven.com and when it asks you what's the cost to repair the damages, put in a thousand bucks. And also say John gave me a sep in the info box. Put John told me 7000 on the radio and we will. If you're in Baton Rouge, we have an office in Baton Rouge and anybody can go by there. Today is by the Albertsons on airline. Go in there, show Rob Ball your car. We'll put a bid on it in person. Or you can just go to givemetheven.com and drop it off there right now and get a check. During the weekends you have to drop go by to get a check.
Michael Turley
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
Or Monday we'll come by and pick it up with a check. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. That also goes for Mannheim, Pennsylvania. We have an office up there. Las Vegas, Nevada, right off Sahara Drive. We have an office there. Dallas, Texas. We have an office there. Fort Worth, Texas. We have an office there. Houston, Texas. We have an office off of. Damn it. What's that street called? Houston. It's right by the airport. It's off by the airport. Not Westheimer. Anyway. Yeah, yeah, we've got. We've got offices and check printers all over the land. To reload the gun, put a fresh bullet in 800-800-723-48800 radio. Hannah, do you think that. Well, forget him and his old lady and wrecked Hyundai. What are you doing, baby?
Hannah
God, who are you talking to? Calling honey. How many honeys do you have? John, you're playboy.
J.D. Ryan
So he's a playboy.
Hannah
He's such a playboy. John was at the club on Wednesdays. Make it rain.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. If you make it rain with hundreds, does that get the attention of making it rain with five?
Hannah
No, you got a lot of attention because you're making it rain with fives. I've never seen that before.
John Clay Wolf
I like singles.
Hannah
It's like Abraham Lincoln's birthday or something. Here's another five.
John Clay Wolf
I've got a question, Hannah. Why are the strip bars in Houston more flexible than the strip bars in Dallas?
Hannah
Well, people, you know, Houston's very extra accessible town. They're very accessible people. And they're from all over, I would imagine.
J.D. Ryan
You need some. Doesn't matter what the vice police will let you get away with. Maybe a little bit.
Hannah
It's because they're a seaside town. They're port town. Everything's cool. Like New Orleans or Liverpool.
John Clay Wolf
I've never thought of this, Hannah. So the proximity of the ocean has to do with the fact of what goes on in the VIP room. Versus doesn't.
Hannah
I know. And everybody's tan and beautiful. It's wonderful.
J.D. Ryan
Brandy, you're a fine girl. Syndrome, I think I love that song that you do.
John Clay Wolf
What are you gonna do when you lose your looks? Because it's coming. I've noticed you aging. I mean, you've been with us for eight years now and I'm starting to see. You look a little haggard.
J.D. Ryan
Nice to her.
Hannah
You're still drunk from Wednesday. Because I look fine.
John Clay Wolf
You look okay. But I mean, you know, you don't look like you did eight years ago.
Hannah
I'm not made up right now. And I don't have the stage lights or anything. Just. I'm just a human being.
John Clay Wolf
I understand.
Hannah
I'm gonna fight. I'm gonna fight it. I'm gonna be beautiful until I die.
John Clay Wolf
You can't play in the NFL forever, Hannah.
Hannah
It takes a little money. Do you have any endurance?
J.D. Ryan
Anything put away?
Hannah
Charlie. Charlie stares at me.
John Clay Wolf
You know, jd, you didn't know this. But Hannah showed it to me. She's got a hole between her nostrils. Yeah, from all the cocaine she's done. It burned a hole in her nose.
Hannah
You can't see that? I told you that in private. Off the record.
John Clay Wolf
Well, you put that hoop in your nose too to show me. But you said it burned a hole in your nose. And you doing that much drugs?
Hannah
No. Ask Turley. He thinks I'm beautiful.
John Clay Wolf
You can't go do drugs like that.
Hannah
She wants to hug me and marry.
John Clay Wolf
Me and stay up until 4am every.
Hannah
Look at his smile. He's got that turly smile.
John Clay Wolf
And drink those few fruity drinks and stay up until four or five every night and do all those drugs and think that you're going to make it long term. And not get Haggard.
Hannah
You know, I love Charlie.
John Clay Wolf
Why?
Hannah
He never pays retail.
John Clay Wolf
What, the old Jew? He's not a Jew.
Hannah
He's a good tipper, but. He's a good tipper.
John Clay Wolf
Uncle Roy, what you doing? Huh? Well, yeah, I'm waiting now. Oh, yeah.
Caller/Guest
Waiting on the rain.
John Clay Wolf
Waiting on the rain.
It's.
Is the. Is the. There's a storm fixes set in in North Texas?
I think so.
Huh?
J.D. Ryan
There is indeed.
John Clay Wolf
Where are my kids?
I gotta go pick them up in a minute. That's when I can't let you make the call.
Oh, I got you. Yeah, I wouldn't. I'd leave them at home. I hear you. Okay. My name is John Clay Wolf. I buy cars in the radio. Brian. Houston, Texas. A 14 FX2 with 52 leather roof. Nav, it's gonna be worth 20. 20, 24,000 is what I think. All right.
Caller/Guest
Okay, sounds good.
John Clay Wolf
Go to givemetheven.com. be right back.
Less cars, more bulls. The john clay wolf show.
On a Kurt Cobain weekend. John in Fort Worth. 18 Ram. 2500 Four Wheel Drive, Mega Cab, Longhorn Leather Roof. Nav. 25,000 miles. That's a lot of miles. But that's fine. What color?
J.D. Ryan
White.
John Clay Wolf
50 grand.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, it's got probably. Probably what I expect you. But he needs to get 60 out of it.
John Clay Wolf
We. I need 70 when I buy it. I mean, we all need a lot. I need my wife to be nicer to me sometimes too. And I need. I need Bob. I need Bob. I need Baba to quit yelling at me all the time. But I think it's worth 50,000. And if you need to turn it into a check and want to get the top wholesale money, you need to go to givemetheven.com and load it up. Bucket. San Antonio. Good morning, Bucket.
Caller/Guest
Good morning, guys.
John Clay Wolf
What? What's up?
Caller/Guest
First time ever. First time I ever heard your show. You're pretty entertaining. Yeah, but like I told you, like I told your call screener, if you ever let Hannah speak on the air again, I'm gonna have to blow up this and other surrounding planets.
John Clay Wolf
Okay? Speaking of. Hannah. Hannah, come here. Hannah. He doesn't like Hannah the stripper, I guess.
Hannah
Oh, my God. Crazy. What's wrong with him?
J.D. Ryan
He's probably dated someone like you. That would be.
John Clay Wolf
You know who we haven't talked to today is Rush Limbaugh. And I want to. Hannah. We hooked Hannah in Rush up a couple of years ago, and Hannah went to D.C. to the. To the strip clubs in D.C. with Rush. And she escorted him around.
Hi, John?
Yes. John, yes.
Can you hear me?
Yes.
Well, good morning from beautiful Florida.
J.D. Ryan
You okay?
John Clay Wolf
You're telling that story all wrong. I personally do not frequent the cabarets around the Washington, D.C. area. I don't. Look, I don't roll that way. Well, I know you said you had an employee.
Yeah, but I paid for it.
I mean, that needed a ride.
DJ Pre K
From.
John Clay Wolf
One end of the Beltway to the other. I happen to be in town with the Rushmobile.
The Rushmobile.
Fighting crime and goofy liberalism as only we know how here at the Excellence in Broadcasting.
Hannah. Hannah. Hannah. Hannah, Hannah, Hannah, Hannah. You need to straighten this out. Listen, honey, you told me that you and Rush did cocaine. Y' all spent $10,000. Oh, my God.
Hannah
Don't say that. Don't say that on the hour. Are you on the air?
John Clay Wolf
You said you spent $10,000. You gathered up some more of your girlfriends. You took her back to some. You took them all back to a.
Hotel in D.C. yeah, but was that right?
Hannah
Let me handle this. Let me handle this.
J.D. Ryan
Having a meltdown.
Hannah
All that happened was we wanted to see the Lincoln Memorial. It was me and Ariel and Cinnamon and Christy.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Hannah
And the four of us didn't have a car.
John Clay Wolf
She went in the Rushmobile.
Hannah
And you said Rush would pick us up. And he had to come inside the club just for a second. He paid his cover like a gentleman.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
Hannah
He said, nice.
J.D. Ryan
Rush paid cover.
Hannah
And he came over. I was on the bar stage. This is my last dance on the bar stage. Coming down. And he said. He said he couldn't hang around. And. And we had to go. And he wouldn't even have a drink, he said. Such a nice, clean man.
John Clay Wolf
Hang on a second. Alan Greenberg up. Up in New Jersey. Alan, you there?
Caller/Guest
Yeah, just one Legend to another. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Michael Turley
Were you.
John Clay Wolf
Were you in the strip club with Rush and Hannah that night?
Caller/Guest
Which one? The one in Jupiter?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
No. I'm smart enough not to get caught.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, I'm sorry. I thought he was with y'. All. Hannah.
Hannah
No. That's what Rush says. Too smart to get caught.
John Clay Wolf
So then what? Rush. Rush, Rush.
Just giving her a ride.
Caller/Guest
Did you.
John Clay Wolf
Did you take Hannah and her friends back to the hotel and. And engage in. In illegal activities, prostitution and drug use.
But here's what happened. One of the young ladies, and she. She very young to me. Yeah, like 22.
J.D. Ryan
22.
John Clay Wolf
22 and a half.
Good age.
J.D. Ryan
We get.
John Clay Wolf
It was a little ill from a taco she bought down the road from the Lincoln Memorial. We did a capital trip, taught a little civics with these young ladies. I think they learned a lot. But one of them don't get fish tacos in dc.
Were y' all trippin balls?
No, I don't remember anything of the sort. She was a little ill, so I went to the hotel room to help her find some.
Hang on. You And Hannah. And three of her friends. Cinnamon and. I forgot the other two. What were their names? Hannah.
There was Mariel, Cine, Cinnamon.
Okay.
And Christy.
And Christy. And y' all go to see the sights, and then you wound up in a hotel room. What time was this?
Well, look, Ariel was terribly, terribly ill. Or fish taco.
Did you just hit her in the. I think in the heart with.
Look, you buy tacos in Washington, D.C. capital of our great nation. I think they use fish from a can, and it didn't go down well.
Did you just hit her with an adrenaline needle in the heart like they did in Pulp Fiction and in the Motley Crue story? And straighten her up.
You don't know that, but it runs in my family. I learned this trick from my mother, the great Mrs. Limbaugh. Milk of magnesia?
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Now, look, look.
J.D. Ryan
You're not looking.
John Clay Wolf
I'm not looking.
Milk of magnesia takes between four to seven hours to work, so I had to stay there and make sure she was going to be okay because I won. She's a very nice girl, as I said, and I didn't want to get sued.
Hannah.
Caller/Guest
By a stripper.
John Clay Wolf
Hannah. Hannah, straighten this out. You told me that your friend OD'd.
Hannah
Oh, my God. Milk of magnesia really works. It takes a long time, thank God. I think she lost 12 pounds. And she was skinny.
Caller/Guest
Anyway.
John Clay Wolf
So did your stripper friend OD on Rush's watch in a hotel room?
In D.C. i don't just tell just what. Just what I gave you.
What I gave you, what I gave you. All right.
Hannah
I don't recall anything illegal happening in and before spending time with Mr. Limbaugh in Washington D.C. signed, Hannah.
Michael Turley
Very good.
John Clay Wolf
Every time they ask, you do that.
Alan, do you believe that?
Caller/Guest
Okay, well, I don't believe it 100% because nothing will be more than 100%. You know that. Right?
John Clay Wolf
Right?
Hannah
Oh my God. Alan sounds cute.
DJ Pre K
God, no.

DJ Pre K
So those in Virginia are excited they finally made the Final Four. Yeah, they play at 6 o' clock Eastern Time against Auburn. Who's a surprise visitor to the Final Four two. I pick Virginia on that one. Their defense is really good. And then guns up for all those Texas Techs folks out there.
John Clay Wolf
Right? Public school does come through.
That's.
DJ Pre K

John Clay Wolf
Yes. Even in basketball they may take a century.
DJ Pre K
Yeah. At least. Well, and you know what? Bobby Knight actually did something good because the coach of for Texas Tech came from Bobby Knight's crop. So they actually finally made the Final four against Michigan State. They played a night at 8:49 Eastern. I picked Texas Tech and actually I think Texas Tech might win it all too.
John Clay Wolf
What is the line? Are they favored in Vegas?
DJ Pre K
They are not favorite. Michigan stays favored but Texas Tech's defense is number. Well, number two behind Virginia in the country.
John Clay Wolf
So.
Yeah, Duke was favored too, man.
Exactly. Duke was favored too, man. That's key.
That was a great game. That's one of the best basketball games I've seen in years.

John Clay Wolf
And here I am. And Colin, I just want to take.
Caller/Guest
This opportunity to say hi to my.
John Clay Wolf
Super fans out there. Mean horny men laying on in home hospital beds and white prison gangs who control the remote on Saturdays.
Caller/Guest
Thank you for watching.
John Clay Wolf
That's funny.
He's so good, man.
I was sitting in a. I was decided to stop by the neighborhood bar the other night, grab a beer. Ah, imagine that. And a guy came up sitting next to me, random and is my old college roommate that lives in Austin. He was in town for a funeral. He didn't know I was there. I didn't know he was here. It was so funny. We sat there for a while, had a few beers. His nipples were very attractive really. But we got to talk. We relived the beautiful moment of the cougar. So his they lived across the apartment from me in over off Green Greenville in the village right across the pool. And my other good friend, that was his Roommate. Anyway, we all kind of shared, but I forgot how they shared this Cougar. So we're 21 and one of them was having an affair with a 45 year old woman. And Sergio straightened it out and re explained how she redecorated their apartment because she was interior decorator and she was so into the other guy. I don't want to say his name. Don't good for that. She came in during to surprise him and. And she literally like made curtains.
J.D. Ryan
Oh no.
John Clay Wolf
That were leopard print.
DJ Pre K
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And hung them on black rings in the front of the little bar in the apartment. She covered it with leopard print fabric and put the padding behind it like all pro.
Michael Turley
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And re. Took their bar stools and did them in leopard print. That. I mean, that's a real cougar.
J.D. Ryan
That's a real cougar.
John Clay Wolf
That's a real cougar.
J.D. Ryan
Proud of it.
John Clay Wolf
And then when, When, When Chris cut her loose. Oh, I was supposed to say his name. No, no, no. I did not want you to dump it. I did it on purpose. Did you really dump it? Yeah. Damn.
DJ Pre K
Well, I didn't know if you're real or not.
John Clay Wolf
So when, when. So he. When he finally cut her loose and she got a little weird on him. She did not want to lose her boy toy.
Hannah
No.
John Clay Wolf
Then Sergio stepped right in. When Chris went on to.
DJ Pre K
He.
John Clay Wolf
He went on to further education. Grad school.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Then.
Then I forgot that Serge had her and she started paying his way and buying him clothes. And then Matt introduced him to some of her friends and was like. He was like Richard Gere in American Gigolo. For a while he wasn't taking money for services, but they were damn sure taking good care of it. Wow. So for all you guys out there, you youngins, listen, there is hope. You youngins, there is hope. You just got to be at the right place at the right time.
Don't be rebellious. Your daddy was right. A man can't just sit around because.
What, What Sergio was We. There was a place called Arthur's in the Double Tree Hotel in Dallas off the Toll.
Michael Turley

J.D. Ryan

John Clay Wolf
Oh, J.D.
DJ Pre K
Name dropping.
J.D. Ryan
It's where all the. It's where all the rich women Go where? The husband's out of town.
John Clay Wolf
But it got me thinking and we got to talking about, like, you know, we're. I'm 46, you know, he's 48. We have several friends. We had a lot of people that partied real hard in high school. I think we partied harder in high school than kids do today.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Before the Internet. That's hard to believe. But a lot of them, the real hard partiers, they live with their mom now. Now, yes.
J.D. Ryan
In their 40s, 50s.
John Clay Wolf
Some of them.
I know, a couple I know, I.
Count 10 people that were cool. Cool people. Stud muffins, party guys that live with their mama now.
DJ Pre K
Are they living with them, taking care of them?
John Clay Wolf
No.
DJ Pre K
Or their mama's taking care of them?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
Caller/Guest
Wow.
Michael Turley
Are you.
John Clay Wolf
I swear to God.
DJ Pre K
It's like that Will Ferrell movie, you know, it's down in the basement with his mom.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Yeah. So they went out, they, you know, they had their career, it didn't work out, and they did this, they did that, and they got out of rehab and then they wind up and they, you know, get an odd job and then they move in with their mom. They just never move out.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, my Lord.
DJ Pre K
Ten of them.
J.D. Ryan
I didn't know there was like a deal.
John Clay Wolf
10 of them. If you have a 50 year old friend living with his mom.
J.D. Ryan
Here we go.
John Clay Wolf
I'd like. I. I just wonder if it's in my circle, your circle, or if this is a. If this is a normal occurrence, a new epidemic. I don't know any Alan Greenberg. Do you live with your mom?
DJ Pre K
You're old, J.D.
Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
No. Is your mom still alive?
Caller/Guest

Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
Were you living with her when she passed away?
Caller/Guest
No, I was taking care of her.
Michael Turley
Hello?
John Clay Wolf
Can I talk to your wife? Is she angry?
Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
Hang on. Jan. And Dallas. An 06 CLS 550 with 120 on it. Probably five grand. AMG. Does it have any. Check engine lights on.
Caller/Guest
No, the engine's incredible.
John Clay Wolf

Michael Turley
Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
What you got, sir? Well, I do have a. I got a 2012 Tahoe. Okay.
Caller/Guest
With 70,000 miles on it.
John Clay Wolf
Pretty good miles. Is it a LS LT or LTZ? RZ71.
Caller/Guest
It's an LTZ.
John Clay Wolf
Does it have a sunroof?
Caller/Guest
It does.
John Clay Wolf
So you got sunroof, navigation, quad buckets, 20 inch wheels on the LTZ. Right, right.
Caller/Guest
And it is a four wheel drive as well.
John Clay Wolf
So it's a 2012. What year we injury is 2019. Nine minus two is seven. So it's a seven year old Tahoe with 70. Actually that's pretty good miles because it's 10,000 miles a year where most people are driving. 15 to 20.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Do you have a clear title or is there a payoff?
Caller/Guest
Clear title on it?
John Clay Wolf
I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking $18,000. Do you have any other offers? Is there. Are you. Are you serious about selling or you just calling to jack with me?
Caller/Guest
No, no, I need to get. I need to get it sold here in the next week. And I got a CarMax offer for 21 5.
J.D. Ryan
21 5?
Caller/Guest
That I got three days ago.
John Clay Wolf
That's a lot. Nothing like jumping me 3,500, you prick. I mean, God, can you not like softball at a touch?
Caller/Guest
I just need to get it done. Yeah, you're the guy.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, here. Here's the bottom line. If it's. If it's true. Take a picture of the offer letter. Go to givemethevin.com, load it up. You know, we say if we don't beat your CarMax offer, we'll send you a check for $100. But in this case, since it's got 70,000 miles, which is good, it's a 12. That's a pretty. That's a lot. But I'll beat it by $250 and I'll come pick it up.
Really?
Caller/Guest
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
If you're lying. If you're lying. If you're lying, then you owe me 250. Fair.
Fair enough.
All right, done deal. Fair enough. Sell that, Shirley.
Michael Turley
All right.
Caller/Guest
Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
Let's go, Mike. Good morning, Houston.
Caller/Guest
Good morning, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What you got?
Caller/Guest
Well, I. Not even selling a car. I was going to chime in on the whole cougar conversation.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, that's really what we. Well, that's why we're here. The cars are just a byproduct. Screw all that. Let's talk serious stuff. I mean, we've got a business. It's called give me the vin.com. it's serious. We have to do that all week long. Saturday morning is time to screw off and have fun.
Caller/Guest
I would love for you to buy my car, but I know you won't. Give me enough money for it because I got a payoff. It's not worth that much.
John Clay Wolf
Was it a Kia?
Caller/Guest
Honda?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Honda's a pretty good. What year model?
Caller/Guest
15 base model Civic.
John Clay Wolf
How many miles?
Caller/Guest
62.
John Clay Wolf
13 grand.
Caller/Guest
And I'm gonna say it's more on. It's more on average side.
John Clay Wolf
12 to 13 grand is my guess. 12 grand. I might with six.
Caller/Guest
Sending you some photos because payoff's only like 11.
John Clay Wolf
All right, there you go. To givemetheven.com back to the Cougar. Screw the cars. Let's talk about you.
Caller/Guest
Right. No, I met my current person. Been with her for six years. Met her when I was 22. She was 41. Do the math on that. I will say that does not pay my way very much, but it's always a good time, so to speak.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so hang on.
J.D. Ryan
You're.
John Clay Wolf
You're. You've got a. You've got a 17 year age gap with your live in gal. And you're the young one.
Caller/Guest
I'm the young one.
John Clay Wolf
And how do your parents feel about all this?
Caller/Guest
They absolutely hate it. Especially because the next section of that is I actually still live with mom and dad.
Michael Turley
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And how old is your mom?
Hannah
50.
Caller/Guest
How old is she born in 62. Didn't matter. Okay, 57, I guess.

John Clay Wolf
So 10 years between your gal and your ma. And do they not like at this point, have they not mean, sounds like y' all have been together a while. Do they not like go shopping together and go ahead and hit it off? And your mom's accepted her as an older woman in your life?
Caller/Guest
No, no, no, no. No woman. Or sorry. My gal lives in her own house, so I'm there about half the time. And then the other half I'm like, say still with mom, dad.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well, good for you, Mike. I'm glad to hear it. Sounds like Paul. 57 years old and living with ma, taking care of her for medical reasons. But when did you. When did you move in?
Caller/Guest
I think 14.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, we. Was it medical reasons back then? Because you see, that's an easy out if you've been there for 10 years. And then of course, they're 90 years old and now you can say, I'm here for medical reasons.
J.D. Ryan
Sure, sure.

John Clay Wolf
How did she cross the line? How did she. Well, I mean, coming out topless was obviously the line. Yeah, that's a line. Did she. Did she have to verbally drag you in or did you know it was game time? Were you too young to understand?
Caller/Guest

John Clay Wolf
Okay.
DJ Pre K
There's a story. That's what the.
J.D. Ryan
She came out of the pool, we went to the house.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Punchline. Leave the story.
John Clay Wolf
Could have been great if he would have got kept. Kept it hot and kept going, but he just kept. Had to talk about all the details. How many times did he say Malibu, Lane and Slo.
J.D. Ryan
Street name again?
DJ Pre K
I think he's doing a bit, but. JD have you done something like that? Young older lady or.
J.D. Ryan
No, I really never have. You would be the one never done the cougar thing.
John Clay Wolf
Tim, Your wife is 17 years older. How old was she. When you met her, how old were you when you met her?
Caller/Guest
I was 18. I met her in 81. We got married in 91. We've been married ever since. And I mean we've had our rough times like everybody else, but we've, we've been happy. And like now she's, you know, she's up there in age and she's going through some hard times, heart trouble and stuff. But hey, we're still together.
John Clay Wolf
And how old are you?
Caller/Guest
And I wasn't traded. I'm 56 right now.
John Clay Wolf
Y' all been together all. So you were set 18 when you met her. So it was. Could have been, could have been classified as statutory rate, but it all worked out.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
All right, Good for you. Congratulations. It's a love story, everybody. The AAF football league is officially over.
DJ Pre K
Yeah. That didn't take long, John, huh?
John Clay Wolf
No. And I'm reading a thing and it says that the players had to follow fly themselves home.
Really?
J.D. Ryan
That's when you know you've made a bad choice.
Michael Turley
Wow.
DJ Pre K
Yeah. So. And it reminds me of minor league football. I. No, no, minor, minor. Like I did the dabble in this when I got out of high school.
J.D. Ryan
Really?
DJ Pre K
Where we had to drive to Victoria because the bus that the team was supposedly providing didn't show up. So you had everybody loads up with their pads and then after a game you're driving all the way back. It was the most miserable thing. Did a one game and said no, no, this is not fun at all. So these guys who've been paid in college. I'm sorry, not paid in college, but they played in college.
J.D. Ryan
Played in college, yes.
DJ Pre K
And some dabbled in the NFL, had to fly their own way.
J.D. Ryan
Football league.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
J.D. Ryan
Oh no.
John Clay Wolf
So the XFL is still alive and now they have some more people to look at.
DJ Pre K
Maybe.
John Clay Wolf
I bet you anything Johnny Football gets a shot of the there because he had some viewership bump when he joined the Memphis. He touches polar bears.
DJ Pre K
The guy that, you know this, the gentleman that actually bought into Tom, I think what he's trying to do is he's trying to get his foot in the door because there is going to be a minor league system and it's Mike and be xfl. Maybe he wants to have his own team in the XFL and then become a partnership with an NFL team.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I'm hearing that they lost $70 million that was spent on this. God, I don't know if that was his or theirs combined or him personally, but a 70 million dollar foot in the door is A hell of a cover charge. Even at the best bar in town. My name is John Clay Wolf. I buy cars. The radio, 800-800-7234. Or just go to givemetheven.com if you'd like to sell your car. If we don't beat your carmax offer, we'll send you a check for $100. Be right back.
Less cars, more bull. The John Clay Wolf show.
Follow me to the desert. Desert.
As thirsty as you are.
I'm reading this story about the AAF folding and this says that Dundon lost $70 million. Golly, I knew that guy when he didn't have $70.
J.D. Ryan
70 million to lose.
John Clay Wolf
Isn't that amazing? Welcome to America.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, he owns the Carolina Hurricanes in the NHL. So he's a NHL?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, billionaire. So probably a write off and all that.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but still, I mean you think about fellas. Fellas with our means. Or I'll say by means. Okay, what can I do with $70 million?
J.D. Ryan
You know you'd be dead in a month.
John Clay Wolf
That's a lot of Johnny Walker, daddy.
J.D. Ryan
You'd be dead in a month.
John Clay Wolf
You know. Domingo. Good morning, you're on the air.
DJ Pre K
Oh, it's domingo.
Caller/Guest
What's up, Mr. Wolf?
John Clay Wolf
Not much. How are you? The crazy Mexican everybody.
DJ Pre K
Yes.
Caller/Guest
You was talking that. That guy he was talking to, his name was Todd.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
Can you relay a message to for him?
John Clay Wolf
Please don't cut. Please don't cuss. I'm not. Okay.
Caller/Guest
No, it's very simple.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
This is the message.
John Clay Wolf
Today. Today. Exactly. Get it out today. Get it out today. We had to give him the old soup Nazi kill.
DJ Pre K
Oh, I didn't know you're going to.
John Clay Wolf
Ah, it's okay. No soup for you, Todd. No soup for. For you ronnie and Kerrville. O2 Excursion 73 with a million gazillion miles. But it's a two wheel drive so it's not worth what the four wheel drives are worth. Are you crazy proud of this? You want big money for it or you want to sell it for normal money?
Caller/Guest
I can hear anything besides billions million miles.
John Clay Wolf
What? What? What do you want for this excursion?
Caller/Guest
Well, I'd like to get 89.
John Clay Wolf
8,900.
Caller/Guest
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
257,000 miles on a two wheel drive. The diesels are popular. The four wheel drives is what they want. I think it's worth 5,000, but I will. Look, I haven't bought one with this many miles in a year. So go to givemetheven.com and let me look at it. When I get off the air, okay?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you. And here's a gazillion million mile Tahoe, Kirk. Oh, three Tahoe with a gazillion million miles on it's worth. It's worth two grand.
Caller/Guest
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. That's it.
Caller/Guest
All right.
John Clay Wolf
Yep. Sorry. I mean the lifespan of these things is what's left in it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, right.
John Clay Wolf
That's just what. What it is. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.
Caller/Guest
Ch.
J.D. Ryan
She still looks good, Johnny.
John Clay Wolf
800, 800 radio. There was something I was wanting to talk about. Darn it. I can't remember other. I'm queer. There's a hundred taxis that I, I think we bought Turley. I don't know if you know.
DJ Pre K
Taxi.
John Clay Wolf
What? What?
DJ Pre K
Like yellow cab.
John Clay Wolf
Yellow cabs. They're white with red tops. They're in California, like New York City looking cats. They're white cars with painted red top. So they have the advertisement still on them and the taxi number on the hoods.
J.D. Ryan
Oh my.
John Clay Wolf
And they're in Pas and Malibu. They're like 2010 to 2014. They all have 200,000 miles.
J.D. Ryan
What are you going to do with that?
John Clay Wolf
I, I'm going to sell them all at once and I'm going to either lose money or make money.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Then he's going to say thank you very much.
I mean, what's it, what are they worth? What year are they? 2010-14. They all have 200000 miles on them.
DJ Pre K
One to three.
John Clay Wolf
What? Thousand? No, I don't think they're worth that.
J.D. Ryan
No.
DJ Pre K
Depending on. They're all 200 000.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
How many?
DJ Pre K
Probably 100, 1000. Yeah, that could be that.
John Clay Wolf
I gave a 500 a piece for them.
100 units.
DJ Pre K
I think you'll be all right.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, you know, it sounds funny that you think I'll be okay. Yeah, I hear what you're saying, but I mean, I think it's really iffy. I don't think it's a slam dunk. I think it's, I think it's close. I think they bring 800 to 900 a piece and then you've got handling costs on them.
DJ Pre K
And so these are cab, like they're stripped down cabs. They're not actual cars that somebody can use for Uber for. Well, I don't even think Uber can use 200,000 miles.
J.D. Ryan
Uber won't do it.
DJ Pre K
No one else can use them.
John Clay Wolf
Basically, Mexico is the only hope for these things.
DJ Pre K
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
If, if, if they want them and if they can import them into Mexico I don't know. But I mean, really too. I mean, think about it.
J.D. Ryan
What.
DJ Pre K
What brand?
John Clay Wolf
It doesn't. Does it even matter?
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. They're GMs. So. Malibu's and Impossible. I mean, what's a230,000 mile 2010 Malibu or an Impala worth? 500 bucks tops. Yeah, what's it worth if it's a cab? Less or more? Less, I think. I think they bring 500. I think I gave the bring money.
Don't forget the American Can Academy. Don't throw away the taxi. Throw away the kids.
DJ Pre K
Hey, you can write them all off.
J.D. Ryan
Write it off. Johnny.
John Clay Wolf
AJ In Las Vegas. Good morning.
J.D. Ryan
Like that football team.
Caller/Guest
Morning.
John Clay Wolf
Hey. Hey. What's going on out there?
Caller/Guest
Hey, man. Hard to get in.
John Clay Wolf
It's good, is it?
Caller/Guest
Beautiful weather out here.
John Clay Wolf
Is it? We're in Dallas today. I need to get my ass out there and go by my office, office over there off Sahara and tell, see if the guys are working. I bet they're asleep. I bet they're not even there.
Caller/Guest
Probably not even there.
John Clay Wolf
Because it's a dot com, so you really can't. I know it, but I mean, you know, you live in Las Vegas and you came from Texas. What do you do for the first two years? You party, right. And you stay at the sports books. If your name's Zane.
DJ Pre K
Hold on. You got a guy there that was supposed to only be there for about six months, but he's still there.
J.D. Ryan
How long has he been there?
DJ Pre K
For a year now.
J.D. Ryan
Here?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. He likes it? Yeah, he likes it. Well, yeah, we sent a guy up there to go fill in for a minute and he decided to become a resident. Where did you come from, aj? Did you. Were you born there or did you move?
Caller/Guest
No, I came from Minnesota originally.
John Clay Wolf
How long you been there?
Caller/Guest
24 years, actually.
John Clay Wolf
What's the weirdest thing. What's the weirdest thing you've seen since you've lived in Las Vegas?
Caller/Guest
Wow, that's a tough question.
John Clay Wolf
Like a. I don't go down.
Caller/Guest
Seeing drunk midgets.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, exactly. I can't really. I don't know who's listening, so I don't want to say a few things on the radio, you know?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
But I mean, I would think out of 22 years you've seen some debauchery.
Caller/Guest
Oh, yeah. Well, I don't. I'd say after the first five or six years, you really don't go down to this trip. You stay away from. From where the tourists go for the most part. What do you Do?
John Clay Wolf
What's your business? What do you do for a living?
Caller/Guest
I do real estate work.
John Clay Wolf
Cool.
Caller/Guest
I was a builder and a real estate broker.
John Clay Wolf
Why do all builders lie?
Caller/Guest
You know what? I don't. I did commercial. I didn't lie. I didn't have to lie.
John Clay Wolf
No, I'm not saying that you did. I mean home builders lie. They tell you that it's gonna take X to do the job and they get all the parts slung everywhere. They get you completely committed and then bump it 50%. It's just like all of them. They just can't help it.
Caller/Guest
Get you on change orders everyday. Lie to get the job and then they. And then they change or to get a death right.
John Clay Wolf
Hey.
Caller/Guest
It's a scam in.
John Clay Wolf
Oh exactly. An 05 Beetle convertible with a buck 12 on it's worth. It's just not worth. Those Volkswagens don't keep running is the problem they have. They're. They're mechanically poorly built so when they get miles on them they start breaking. And when they break it costs more to fix them than they're worth. So that's the true truth about the. The Beatles. That car's worth two grand.
Caller/Guest
That's it?
John Clay Wolf
That's it. Thanks. Sorry man. I got a boogie I got to keep rolling. They do lie. It's the damnedest thing. 808 I'd rather say that my, my, my. My father is a used car dealer at a note lot Lord than a home builder.
J.D. Ryan
Home builder?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Wow.
Michael Turley
Yikes.
John Clay Wolf
Cuz at least people know that they're going to get lied to.
DJ Pre K
Now you talking about home builder companies or just.
John Clay Wolf
I'm just talking about the whole thing.
DJ Pre K
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
It's a hard racket man. It's a hard. He, he just told you. They tell you what they need to get the job and then here comes the. The. It's like when we. We used to buy and I quit doing it. Hey John. We got this Viper and it's been T boned but it's got it, you know, clear title and it's good. We can fix it for 10,000. It'll make 10,000. Every time I got into one of those you get it into the shop, they get it strung apart. They get halfway into it. Price change. It's never right. Every time I've ever rebuilt a car it's. I've always lost money on it.
J.D. Ryan
Makes sense.
John Clay Wolf
I'm just done. Yeah big projects. I'm done because they get you in there and they string your stuff everywhere and you're screwed. What are you Gonna say, right, There's a Subaru WRX that I just gave to a shop. Just, I just walked away from it. Oh, God, 8,000 bucks just walked away from it. There's a Honda up at some crooked ass paint and body shop in Oklahoma. When I had the Chevrolet store up in the Marriott. Oklahoma. Yeah, I mean, they did the same thing. It got in, they started, I, I gave, I just walked away from it.
J.D. Ryan
Just said, enough.
John Clay Wolf
Because you start fighting with them over mechanics, liens in this, you're just like, just forget it. That's why our vendors, I gotta, I gotta keep strong relationships with our vendors and the guys I trust. Because if you get into a new one and they're crooked, oh, they got.
J.D. Ryan
You by the sack before you even know it.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, you're done. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Paul, you've got 400,000 miles on your truck. What are you expecting me to say?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What are you expecting me to offer on an 04 Ram? Is it two wheel drive?
Caller/Guest
No, four wheel drive.
John Clay Wolf
I know it's a coal burner, but it's got 420 on it. What do you think my number is going to be?
Caller/Guest
I have no idea. That's why I'm calling this two grand buy. Two grand. Well, it's got a new transmission in it, new injectors.
John Clay Wolf
You spent four grand there, at least. No, you might have spent five. Why did you do that?
Caller/Guest
Why did I do that? Because I've been having a truck since I bought it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
And it's been all across south Texas. And it's kind of a little sentimental value on it.
John Clay Wolf
All right. It's expensive to have sentimental value. I think it's a three grand. I think it's a three grand rig.
Three grand.
Yep. If you want to sell it, go to givemetheven.com 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Oh, my God. We're out of that time. And I wanted to do this Waylon Jennings story.
J.D. Ryan
Damn it.
DJ Pre K
You can do it next. Or. Yeah, people could check us on the stream.
Michael Turley
Sure.
J.D. Ryan
The stream is still there. John claywolf.com for the next hour. Also, that's where the podcast will be popped up sometime this afternoon, shortly after and in Houston.
John Clay Wolf
Listeners, you can jump over to 97.5 in Houston to listen to our number of the last hour that we're fixed to go to. But I'm going to lose three affiliates right now. You guys can jump when they come back from commercial. If I'm not there. You can go to John Clay wolf.com click go. Listen live. We'll be back in a momento por. And now we return to the John.

John Clay Wolf
Vin.Com researchers from NASA and the European Space Agency is seeking female applicants for.
Caller/Guest
A study on weightlessness that will pay.
John Clay Wolf
Women $19,000 to lie in bed for 60 days. Hit him up now.
Hannah
800.
John Clay Wolf
800 radio said Trump.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
Caller/Guest
I paid like seven times that for one day.
John Clay Wolf
Now, John Clay Wolf. That old Trump can't get a break. It is almost. It's feeling a little summery out there. I'm starting to smell it.
J.D. Ryan
Spring summer's coming.
John Clay Wolf
It's nice. What is the deal with Biden? Who did he rub on?
J.D. Ryan
Everybody.
John Clay Wolf
Biden.
DJ Pre K
Oh, he's just a handsy old man. I mean, he didn't grab him by the pee, but, you know, at least.
John Clay Wolf
No, no.
But he's always been kind of one of those, like. Have you ever noticed, like, JD And I are. Are kind of huggy?
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Now there's a whole big difference between two men kind of touching each other in the way the videos of him are touching little girls, and they're. The girls are even creeped out. The girls are leaning away from him, like, get away from me, you.
Michael Turley
Some.
John Clay Wolf
Some of them look like they really are. Yeah, but he's always been that overly friendly. Everybody's got an Uncle Joe, you know.
J.D. Ryan
Most of them are in prison.
John Clay Wolf
That's just huggy. Yeah. You know, you don't. You don't ask Uncle Joe to. Baby said, no, you don't.
J.D. Ryan
It just doesn't look good. If it happened once, it'd be one thing, but it was over and over.
John Clay Wolf
So he's thinking about running for president. So they roll this out. I don't know if he's about it.
DJ Pre K
Or people are trying to push him to do it.
John Clay Wolf
Can Obama run again now that he's taking a term off? I thought you could.
J.D. Ryan
I don't know. I have no idea.
John Clay Wolf
No, he can't.
J.D. Ryan
I think there was a time when you could because one of our presidents did, but I believe that because he did, they went, no more of that.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, here's the deal.
Here's.
Here's my favorite part of the Biden thing. So I follow President Donald J. Trump on Twitter because I'm for chaos. And I just. I'm just so. I'm just. I'm so entertained.
I do, too, for the same reason.
I don't agree with probably 2% of what he says or what he's about, but I'm just entertained by. Because people go just immediately ape.
They just pound his Twitter. They just pound his Twitter with hate balls, like, every 30 seconds. Yes, today, I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.
Yesterday, he retweeted a really funny thing of. Of Joe Biden, you know, standing facing the camera. Okay. POV shot. And behind him, another Joe Biden comes up and grabs by the shoulders.
J.D. Ryan
So funny.
John Clay Wolf
He smells his neck. Now, that's taste.
The President of the United States of America.
That's tasteless and. And probably unfair. And very funny.
J.D. Ryan
Very funny.
John Clay Wolf
Very funny, producer. Because he can't be doing this.
DJ Pre K
I don't know. That's a good question. Obama had somebody actually do all his texts and tweets for a little while. This guy named Reggie was a former Duke player. I don't.
John Clay Wolf
I don't think Trump has got a Twitter handler.
Do you think he does it?
No, because half of that stuff would never come out, John. And you've got to read it every day just like I do. Half of that stuff would never come out.
You know, it's so. You can't even fathom. You think it's fake.
The American press is the enemy of the people.
And I'm not knocking on Trump. I like the. I. I like him as our president, so you can hate me for that.
No, no.
Love the economy that he's created.
It's a democracy, and we all get to have an opinion, you know, and I. I've really tried to not be so butthurt right. About politics. You know, it's easier when you win than when you lose. All right? I'll tell you that much. But what I can appreciate is the chaos of it all. I'm just so amused, you know?
Sure, sure, sure, sure. Last night, for some reason, I was laying in bed and I tripped across Whan Jennings. I think I was watching Talladega Nights and that. That song, Daddy Gonna Walk the Line, was on there, and I looked him up, and I started reading about Waylon Jennings. And did you know the backstory of Wayland?
I got a good bit of it, yeah. He's from Littlefield.
Yeah.
Michael Turley
What?
J.D. Ryan
I mean, it's just specific backstory. There's a lot of them.
Caller/Guest
The only two things in life that.
John Clay Wolf
Make it worth this wasn't him. I mean, this is him. Yeah, but this wasn't him. This was not his shtick.
DJ Pre K
He didn't write this.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no. Before this. Before the whing that we know.
Michael Turley
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
It it was this.
Silence. Dead silence.
J.D. Ryan
Well, no wonder that wasn't a hit.
DJ Pre K
Really?
John Clay Wolf
Yes. On the base.
That's him on base.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, a base.
John Clay Wolf
Like, dude, that's not Waylon.
I didn't know that he was a.
Rockabilly guy, and I also did not.
So the night that. The night that they played the Surf Ballroom in Iowa, right? He got on the bus, and he. And I have heard this, but, you know, he said that he. He said, ah, Buddy Holly says, I hope you're up. Your bus crash. Your bus. He says, I hope your plane crashes. But I didn't realize that Buddy Holly found Waylon Jennings on the radio in Lubbock, Texas, or Littlefield.
He was a radio guy. Buddy Holly's from Lubbock, Right. Wayne's from Littlefield, which is a little further out there.
And then he was a dj. Waylon Jennings was a dj. Would be just like you, Bobbo, in Wichita Falls, Texas. And there was some hot act and they liked your voice and y' all became friends and they produced a record with you, and you became a bass player.
J.D. Ryan
Checks of whan.
John Clay Wolf
The what?
J.D. Ryan
There are radio. Air checks of Waylon on the radio. Yeah, he's just the dj.
John Clay Wolf
Just a dj?
Well, he was the narrator for Dukes of Hazard. I mean, he's got a great.
J.D. Ryan
I think that was a little. A little down the road, but got.
John Clay Wolf
A great speaking voice.
J.D. Ryan
He does.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. I just. I. It's worth reading his Wikipedia page and getting in the history of the Buddy Holly stuff because it's.
J.D. Ryan
It's pretty deep when he tells that story about the. About the night the plane crashed. He. For years thought he caused that plane crash. It really jacked him up.
John Clay Wolf
And the. The story of them leaving that night. And I've seen the movie the Day the Music Died and all that, but as a pilot, I mean, I flew a bonanza. I've got a thousand hours in a bonanza. Taken off.
J.D. Ryan
No, I take off and then imc.
John Clay Wolf
Which means enter whatever meteorological condition, instruments, and your VFR pilot back in those days.
J.D. Ryan
Absolutely no reason to take off.
John Clay Wolf
Begging for it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, begging for it.
John Clay Wolf
Begging for it.
Well, except for a schedule and a page.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. That's the king of the get home itis pilots call it. But I've got to get them.
John Clay Wolf
So they're all de. Right. They're taking him back for the funeral in Lubbock, and the promoters get Whalen and the other fellas on one of them is Allsups. Tommy also says, you got to finish this tour. He's like, we gotta go back for the funeral. No, no, no. They're dead.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
They ain't coming back. We need you to finish this tour. And if you do the tour that was scheduled. So go play Buddy Holly songs the next night.
Michael Turley
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And we'll pay a big bonus when you get done. So they did it. They got done. They didn't even get plane tickets back. They got no money. They got nothing.
J.D. Ryan
I didn't know that story.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's. It's. It's pretty out there. Edgar. Edgar, are you on 10 Tacoma TRDs? Is it 10 Tacoma TRD quad cab. So it's an extended cab, not a four door.
Caller/Guest
It's a. No, I'm sorry. It's a four door.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And it's four wheel drive. It's got 168000 miles on average. Rough or clean.
Caller/Guest
It's. It's very clean.
John Clay Wolf
Seven thousand.
Caller/Guest
Seven thousand.
John Clay Wolf
How many miles are on it?
Caller/Guest
That seems. One hundred and sixty eight.
John Clay Wolf
One hundred and sixty eight.
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
And what were you thinking?
Caller/Guest
I'm. I'm thinking 14.
John Clay Wolf
Oh.
Ah, shut up. For your face.
J.D. Ryan
That's a new one.
John Clay Wolf
That's the best one ever, Turley.
J.D. Ryan
Perfect.
Caller/Guest
That's great.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, that was good. An 11 XL diesel with a. One more time, Turley. Hang on. Let's ask Michael.
Michael Turley
He's.
John Clay Wolf
He's got a. He's got a real desirable truck too. An 11F 250XL diesel with 158 work truck, two wheel drive, crew cab.
DJ Pre K
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What's it take to buy yours, Mike? Oh, I don't know.
Caller/Guest
Like to hear what you think.
John Clay Wolf
Actually, I'd like to. I'd hate to price another man's property. I'd like to hear yours first. 11 would probably.
DJ Pre K
Get it off my hand.
John Clay Wolf
Can't make that work. Sean. And Midland.
Damn it, man.
99 Corolla with 150,000 miles. Are you there?
Caller/Guest
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
What's it take to buy your 99 Corolla with 150,000 miles? Out in West Texas?
Caller/Guest
What was that?
John Clay Wolf
What does it take to buy your car? How much?
Caller/Guest
I'm just curious what it's worth.
John Clay Wolf
No, I just want to know. What you really don't know. I just want to know what you'll take for it.
Caller/Guest
2.
John Clay Wolf
Shut up. For your face. Can't make it work. I think it's 1500. Though. I do think 1500 will buy it. So we're not that far off.
J.D. Ryan
We have a new segment.
John Clay Wolf
Steve, set up a good face. Hang on. Let's do some More watch, we'll hit somebody. Casey in Houston.
Caller/Guest
Hey, how are you?
John Clay Wolf
Good. A 13 Durango RT with a buck 12 on the clock, leather, navigation, eight cylinder. What's it take to buy it?
Caller/Guest
You know, I'm not sure. Probably about 14 and a half.
John Clay Wolf
Go ahead and play it, Charlie, but I want to shut up for your face. I don't think we're that far off. I don't. I was. I was thinking that this one we wouldn't be that far off because this thing has some type of desirability factor. Even though it's got miles. The Hispanic. The Hispanic community will kick in on the baby. Yeah, I understand. Let me see something. You've had a. You got a 13. I'm gonna look this up real quick. Dodge Durango, but it's an rt, which is good.
Caller/Guest
Rims are great. Yeah, rims are great. Wheels are new, tires are new.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, how many miles?
Caller/Guest
112, 567.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, what, what price did you say?
Caller/Guest
14 and a half.
John Clay Wolf
MMR on it is 12, 1. So you want full blown retail and you have to find somebody that can get a bank to finance it because nobody's going to pay cash for that rig. If they pay cash for that rig, they buy something newer with better miles. So I'm a 12 grand buyer and if you'd like me to play shut up, shut up in your face on myself, I'll do that.
Caller/Guest
Yeah? Yeah, please, go ahead.
John Clay Wolf
He got me with the shut up of your face. All right, all right, all right.
That's the Italian interpretation of it ain't me, babe.
Yeah, okay. Drunk. Drunk ass. Don's girlfriend, Tracy. Good morning.
DJ Pre K
Oh, drunk ass.
John Clay Wolf
Good morning.
Caller/Guest
How are you?
John Clay Wolf
We're great.
DJ Pre K
How's Don?
John Clay Wolf
Is he drinking some KD Kentucky Deluxe this morning?
Caller/Guest
No, he's drinking coffee and taking shots of Baco.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, there you go.
DJ Pre K
All right.
John Clay Wolf
He breaks it up and I just.
Caller/Guest
Popped the top on the beer, so.
J.D. Ryan
Boy, that 11 o' clock tonight at your house is gonna be fun.
John Clay Wolf
What time do y' all crash out?
Caller/Guest
Yes, it is. God, is so great to talk to you.
John Clay Wolf
What time do y' all crash out? Y' all start partying?
Caller/Guest
Eight, nine.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, okay, that makes sense because y' all start partying. Yeah.
Caller/Guest
And then we wake up at three, four.
John Clay Wolf
You know, you just roll with it. Just roll. Just roll. Just roll and keep rolling. Y' all smoke cigarettes?
Caller/Guest
What we do, we just roll with it.
John Clay Wolf
Do y' all smoke cigarettes?
Caller/Guest
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Good. I mean, if you're gonna be bear.
J.D. Ryan
Do it all the way.
John Clay Wolf
If you're gonna be a bear. Be a grizzly bear. We gotta keep going. Thank you, Tracy. Oh, that's funny.
DJ Pre K
Wow, that couple's.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Drunk ass, Don.
Love it. That's bliss.
Alan Greenberg, do you. Do you drink for a living, too? No.
Caller/Guest
I don't tell you, I gave up about 30 years ago.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, man. Do you smoke?
Caller/Guest
I only tried marijuana once. It made me sick.
John Clay Wolf
All right. My name is John Clay Wolf and I buy cars with the radio.
J.D. Ryan
Thanks for taking the air out of the bit.
John Clay Wolf
I will be back in a minute.
DJ Pre K
Now back to the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
I need a side.
I went to the side.
Hit him up right now.
DJ Pre K
1-800-800-Radio.
John Clay Wolf
Who you calling?
I ain't saying calling.
You'll fight about this. This is the John Clay Wolf Show. This is my favorite Foreigner song.
You know, I thought you were wrong on the title. When you. You put this on the list, I thought you were talking about Blue Monday. They are not the same song.
It's a good tune. It's not overplayed. There's so many great songs on this classic rock crap, but the ones that are just over played. Even if you loved him, I'm just. I just can't take him anymore.
No. Ah, you know, it's.
J.D. Ryan
No, this guy just.
John Clay Wolf
I'm done with him.
There are a lot of schools that thought on that, though.
So you dig in and you find the winners that weren't overplayed. Steve, limo driver. Yeah, tell. Talk to me.
Caller/Guest
All right. Okay. I'm not going to be as the. The plano guy that can't tell a story real quick. I drove a limousine. And then what happened was every year, the first year was amazing.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Okay.
Caller/Guest
What I did is there's a small town outside of Corpus Christi that the. The owner of the bar and six or seven of his buddies would sit there and get together, and all four of them, I mean, all eight of them would get together. And this is something. If you, if you actually call the banks, I can prove everything I'm. I'm saying and then.
John Clay Wolf
Listen, Steve. Hang on, hang on. Stop, stop, hang on, hang on, hang on. You're doing a good job, but you're starting to lean towards Plano guy. You're going a little. You're getting into too many details. Stay in the middle of the road.
Caller/Guest
Here we go. Here we go. They'd get two dollar bills. They'd go to the bank and get two dollar bills.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
I'd pick them up and I would take them to the strip bars. All Day long for seven, eight hours.
John Clay Wolf
Okay?
Caller/Guest
And then when I'd get up, when I take them back home, their wives, the moms, you got to figure out seven, eight chicks. It's the moms and the stepdaughters or mother, daughter in laws. By the time I got there, back it after they've been. The guy's been in strip bars all day long. These girls are juiced up.
John Clay Wolf
Slow down, slow down, slow down, slow down. So the men are in the strip bars, and you're reverting back to their women that are at home. So the women know that they're out being bad.
Caller/Guest
No, the women are at the bar that the main guy owns.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Okay.
Caller/Guest
Yeah, yeah. So what happens is in the morning when I pick them all up, I pick the guys up at the bar in the small town north of Corpus Christi. Okay? So the girls are sitting at the bar all day long getting juiced up.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, the strippers, huh? The stripper?
No, the wives.
Caller/Guest
No, the wives.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Yeah.
You got two. Hang on, hang on. You got two groups of people. You got the men and the women. Where are the men?
Caller/Guest
The men are with me in the limousine.
John Clay Wolf
Where are the women?
Caller/Guest
The women are at the bar that I. The. The main guy is the owner of the bar in a small town.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
North of corporate.
J.D. Ryan
So the women stay back at his ball.
Caller/Guest
Happens to.
John Clay Wolf
Do they know that the men are going on strip bar bender?
Caller/Guest
No, they know this, okay? Because the four. The four of the guys, it's their birthday. So the girls, The. The wives are sitting in this bar knowing that the guys got the. All day. Because I'm taking them to strip bars and I'm taking them to steakhouses and all the stuff, okay? So while. While I'm driving them around and these guys are sitting there actually paying for the busboys to watch my limo while I sit inside the strip bars and hang out with them.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Caller/Guest
Okay? So by the time I get back to the bar that I'm dropping them off at, where I picked them up seven, eight hours earlier, the girls go, oh, it's our time to ride in the limousine. So I. The guys get out, the girls get in the limo, I pull down the road. As we're going down the road, the girls go, hey, Steve, pull over here on the side of the road. So I pull over and I go. I pull over, put it in park, and I go, yeah, what's. What's the deal? They grabbed me and pulled me into the back of the limousine.
John Clay Wolf
Okay?
Caller/Guest
This happened for another five years. I look so forward to every year when these guys had their birthday party.
John Clay Wolf
So what did you do with the gals?
Caller/Guest
What do you think I did with the gals?
John Clay Wolf
How old were you?
Caller/Guest
Well, I mean I. Well I guess about 21 when I started. About 26 when I finally quit.
John Clay Wolf
So did you really? Really? Let's tell real truths and don't over exaggerate. Did you really? How many women were in the background of the limo?
Caller/Guest
Seven.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. How many did you have sexual relations with?
Caller/Guest
Seven.
John Clay Wolf
Shut up.
DJ Pre K
An orgy. An orgy in the back of a limo.
J.D. Ryan
What do the two dollar bills have to do with.
John Clay Wolf
Nothing. Nothing. You're just confusing things. J.D.
My bad.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I'm doing it.
DJ Pre K
Yes. Basically he's a limo driver.
John Clay Wolf
We finally got to the meat of the story and you want us to start confusing it. No pun intended.
DJ Pre K
A limo driver getting basically raped every two years. I guess it sounds.
John Clay Wolf
I've lived in a. I've lived in a small town. There's no way that seven women would keep this secret.
DJ Pre K
No.
John Clay Wolf
Well, these are funky women. I mean these are, these are fun loving gals.
Did the men know her husband owns a bar? Hang on everybody. I'm running. I'm, I'm screwing this goat. Y' all are just holding its head.
Caller/Guest
Okay, I think you're misleading. You're not understanding. When you're in a small town and your husbands are out there sitting there screwing around all day when, when they're, they're all juiced up, they've got a pass.
John Clay Wolf
I understand, but did any of these stories get out and was everybody okay with it or did it cause problems in the community, at the church?
Caller/Guest
This is the very first time I've ever talked about it, ever. And it was only because the only reason I'm saying something, because the plano guy was taking so long story. It was driving me crazy.
John Clay Wolf
So, so what year was this?
Caller/Guest
Oh, 28 years ago.
John Clay Wolf
Before the Internet. J.D. yeah. Yeah, they had all these great ideas before the Internet. So this sex stuff has been going on before the Internet?
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Were any of them hard? Like, I'm sure there were some pretty ones. I'm sure there were some normal ones, but was there a couple of bad ones that you're like, ah, hell with it. I just got to. I gotta plow on through it anyway.
Caller/Guest
Well, to be honest with you, two of them were 21 year old. But I got more of a kick out of the fact that their, their mom, while their mother in laws were what, 50 years old. And the. But that's The. I mean, when I'm sitting there telling you they pulled me through the window and pulled me back in the back of the limousine. I'm not lying. They yanked the out of me.
John Clay Wolf
You can't cuss. I had to dump.
Caller/Guest
That a cuss word? Dude, I've heard you say worse.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, I said now I gotta really dump out. I'm sorry, I can't do that.
DJ Pre K
You gotta look too risky.
J.D. Ryan
I'm gonna say women keeping that a secret. Five years. There's no way that was red flag.
John Clay Wolf
I believe something.
DJ Pre K
Something happened maybe.
J.D. Ryan
By the way, sir, if you thought the other guy told a bad story, go back and listen to the podcast in a couple hours.
John Clay Wolf
Brian in Oklahoma City.
Caller/Guest
Hey, John, I was just going to tell you, man. Let's just say hypothetical. That story is as true as gold. It's not worth listening to because that guy's the worst storyteller I have ever heard.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you very much.
DJ Pre K
Some of these guys aren't on radio.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, some of these guys have these good stories. I need y' all to work them out before you get on the air because we got half a million listeners. So we've got to keep it in between the line lines and on the rails and deliver the goods on the two dollar bills. And the bank and the bar and the bar and the bank. And then the small town and the small town and I mean, it's like Plano playing Corpus. Hey, dude, you're in Corpus and you're in a limo.
DJ Pre K
But it's like you have.
John Clay Wolf
I believe something like this happened, but I gotta have a really hard time believing that 50 year old mother in laws are okay.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Ah, man, that's a stretch. I've seen some crazy stuff.
J.D. Ryan
They all kept it coin.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, here's. Here's somebody that lives a wild life. Drunk ass Don. Lives a wild life and drunk ass Don. Do you believe any of this?
Caller/Guest
I tell you what, I don't think I can beat that orgy story, brother. I don't know. I've traveled a lot of miles. I never had an experience like that, unfortunately.
John Clay Wolf
It says here that you have a song. You have a song for us?
DJ Pre K
Oh, hey.
Caller/Guest
I got a crazy little song, man. It'll only take a minute.
Hannah
All right?
John Clay Wolf
You did such a great job with the, with the Star Spangled Banner the other day. You have the stage, sir.
Caller/Guest
Oh, my brother. I love y'. All. I tell you what, here we go.
Michael Turley
Here we go.
Caller/Guest
I went home with a waitress the way I always do. I was.
J.D. Ryan
I was.
Caller/Guest
I was Gambling in Havana I took a little risk. Send lawyers, guns and money dad, get me out of this anyway I could go on. It's a loss. All dad. And I send lawyers, guns and money that get me out of this.
John Clay Wolf
Is that an Eagle song?
This stuff has hit the fan. It's Warren Zevon song.
Good job, drunk ass. Don't.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, and fry.
John Clay Wolf
Guns and money. The stuff has hit the two dollar bill.
J.D. Ryan
Not to sing that again.
John Clay Wolf
Why? I. I don't. I don't.
I don't.
I don't believe that guy. I want to. I want to believe him because he sounded so sincere.
DJ Pre K
Sounds like a porn I've seen.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, what really happened?
Yeah, maybe we're just giving people too much credit.
What really happened? He had a regular fare for his limo service between Corpus and that little town that owned a bar. Okay, and the guy who owned the bar had a friend. Okay, so it's two guys, not six. They did not go to the bank and get two dollar bills because that makes no damn sense at all. That's just kind of an elaboration. Unnecessary. Totally unnecessary. Well, while these two guys went to the strip club, their two wives, who were 48 and 52 years old respectively, stayed at the bar and got all drunk and pent up while their husbands were out. When he took the husbands home and went to the bar to pick up the wives who were still there because they'd been more or less just abandoned to sacrifice to Jack Daniels, he picks them up and not one, but both of them are ready for some action.
They take him on.
Yeah. And they didn't drag him through the window. They propositioned him on the way to the car. The car never left the bar. They stayed parked at the bar. He got in the back with him and six to seven and a half minutes later he went in and drove him home. Yeah, that's the whole story. One of them threw up, but that's no fun.
J.D. Ryan
Drop in the back.
John Clay Wolf
You know Bill and Lafayette. What you got?
Caller/Guest
Yeah. Why they went after two dollar bills from the bank is because when they go to a strip club, it look like twenties in the dark.
John Clay Wolf
This is a very, very. This man has miles under his belt.
Jackson and Hamilton look nothing alike, Sir.
Thanks, Bill. 800. 800-7234.
He may be right.
We are on in New Orleans, by the way. I mean, why? I mean, if we're fishing for crazy stories, you get a point. Between Vegas and New Orleans, they should win every time. Corpus. And where was the other one?
Lord Victoria.
DJ Pre K
Yeah. Something like that.
John Clay Wolf
But those country folk, dude. I mean, I lived in na. In Vernon. It's crazy. Yeah, but.
J.D. Ryan
But it makes sense.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
They get bored.
They get bored. They get bored. They get more bored out in the. In the country buoy, Texas, usa, Right? Yeah.
In the. In the naked city. There are a thousand stories.
These lots of swingers. These. I never partook, but I heard a lot of stories. Whole lots of stories. Yeah, you can ride my horse and the rodeo tonight. Fine. I'm going to be in this event. You can ride it in that one.
Main difference is you put canned pineapple in your grocery card.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, they don't have the real. Have the real thing.
John Clay Wolf
Canned pineapples still works.
J.D. Ryan
Still works.
John Clay Wolf
Canned pine. Hey, Turley, did you know that the guys on a 975 in Houston won the ratings war? Finally. No ESPN.
DJ Pre K
Congratulations.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. 97five's number one sports talker in Houston, Texas. That's great. Congratulations, Granado. Congratulations, Fred and AJ and everybody else that's on that stick. We've been on this stick for 10 years. I don't know if it's 10, but it's like nine or 10. It's right there.
J.D. Ryan
It's crazy.
John Clay Wolf
I need to pull the original contract and see, when we started, it was real. When was it? Turley, man, it.
DJ Pre K
It's got to be right around.
John Clay Wolf
I was doing that before I met you two.
DJ Pre K
Well, no, we.
John Clay Wolf
Well, Houston, were you on 97.5? I was. Absolutely.
DJ Pre K
2010. So it's almost 10 years.
John Clay Wolf
So, yeah, I need to look it up. Okay. We'll be right back.
Less cars, more bulls. The John Clay Wolf Show.
Caller/Guest
Tonight's the night we'll make history. As sure as dogs can fly. But tonight can always last as long.
John Clay Wolf
As we keep alive the memories of paradise. You know, it's not just young white people, black people that can mix cool music up.
J.D. Ryan
Nice mix.
Michael Turley
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Are you kidding?
J.D. Ryan
Did you do that?
John Clay Wolf
John Clay Wolf heard that in his head while drinking Tuesday evening.
J.D. Ryan
That was awesome.
John Clay Wolf
Sent me an email.
DJ Pre K
But it.
John Clay Wolf
And that's.
DJ Pre K
It's not a complete mashup, though. It's like 30 seconds.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, well, I mean, you know, you.
Got to start somewhere.
Where are the rules in art?
DJ Pre K
I guess not.
John Clay Wolf
No, no. If you listen, the whole piece is actually 20 minutes long. There's a lot more sticks and actually some. Yes. And Moody Blues in there, too, but you have to listen really closely.
That was great.
It's like the Beatles love album.
DJ Pre K
It's like you're just dabbing in it a little Bit.
J.D. Ryan
So that was just in your head?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Oh, yeah. It just hit me. It just. I just. I've got a weird. I just drink too. I just drink too much. It's just that simple.
J.D. Ryan
I love that Sticks album, too. I've lived with that thing.
John Clay Wolf
Paradise Theater.
Oh, Bob and I were. During the break. We're listening. He had some. Mr. Baker from Skinner Plane, which I've never heard. We were arguing or debating. Not arguing about. My comment was Skynyrd would have been Zeppelin in Legacy.
Yeah.
Had they not had that plane crash. They were that good.
They really were. When the guys at Muscle Shoals at Fame recording studio, when they say, we really never enjoyed a bunch of guys playing their own instruments more than those guys. Yeah, that's something.
But you started talking. You said they kind of were. And then we brought up how many albums did they really have? Not that were renamed because they started changing using a lot of the same.
Songs you're talking about before the plane crash.
Yes.
Okay.
Yes, me too.
I thought there were four.
I don't know. Had. But. But the body of work got cut in half. And I don't mean the bodies on the plane when the crash. I mean.
No, they were. They were at their peak. Really? At that.
Oh, absolutely.
What's your name? And Saturday Night Special.
But had they had another four more years in that creative genius time they had, how much more music would have come out of it and where would their legacy be? Not that it's shameful now, but as far as all time, greatest of all time. All time. Because Led Zeppelin really carries it. I mean, would you agree? Rock and roll race. Rock and roll band of all besides Beatles. Beatles is a different vein. Beatles is a different vein.
Zeppelin's up there.
You know, Zeppelin's up there. No, they do.
Okay, listen, I'm a. I'm a bit of a musicologist. I mean, I go around. I. I can be, you know, Steely Dan for a year sometimes. Be my all time favorite band sometimes. You know, I'm just talking about the R. Sometimes.
Eagles.
Eagles are an awfully good.
Call the guy in Corpus and go argue with him. Poco$2 bills.
I do like poker.
I hear what you're saying, but do you think. J.D. you're not a music guy. Is Zeppelin the greatest rock and roll. Let's call hard rock and roll. Is that fair? Hard rock and roll band that ever existed?
J.D. Ryan
In my personal opinion, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Without a doubt.
Turley, do you have an opinion?
DJ Pre K
No, I agree on that, too.
John Clay Wolf
And what I'm saying Is I believe that Lynyrd Skynyrd. Because in these conversations they don't come up as that People don't say, oh, is Zeppelin or Skynyrd. They say, oh, Zeppelin or Van Halen.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I'm trying to say, had Skynyrd had a moment to finish a little. Put a little more product out there, I think they'd be right there in that conversation.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, they didn't have enough time for mainstream.
Michael Turley
Right.
DJ Pre K
That's what it was.
John Clay Wolf
They're bigger after they died.
Best Southern rock band ever.
Absolutely.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah. No question.
DJ Pre K
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
But what is Southern rock? I mean, you know, so you have to be better than the Allman Brothers.
To be better than Led Zeppelin's Credence Clear Underwater Revival. Were all California guys, but they sure sounded like Louisiana, didn't they?
Yes.
You know, so yeah, I'm a. Yeah.
The, the. The more you listen to Skinner, the better they get. That's my point.
It's true. No, it stands up to. To speculation.
When I went to that iHeartRadio music festival, which is Rihanna and you know, Beyonce and, and Justin Bieber and Justin Timberlake and all the finished it. So I was there last. Last year in Vegas at Staples Center, I think it's called. No, anyway, doesn't matter. The Pl. The band that brought the house down was Leonard Skynyrd Part 2. They had more crowd reaction and from the young crowd than any of the big stars of today. Pretty cool stuff.
Cuz 18 year olds can't afford those tickets.
I'm telling you, you got a point there. Yeah, yeah.
Who's. Who's a crowd pleaser?
I mean, you know, we were talking about. I was, I was at I Heart. We're talking about bands, you know, like Turley said, this tour that we were talking about rumors. So Live Nation, the production company really has a firm grip on the touring commodity.
They sure do.
I mean like more you would think I Heart Radio would because they're the I Heart. I mean they're the Walmart of. Of radio stations and that's what makes the artist is the radio.
Caller/Guest
Right.
John Clay Wolf
But they're having to cow down a bit to Live Nation. Live Nate. So this Bowen Gym bash that we did last year and this year it's called ZZ Top Something Something.
DJ Pre K
That's for low in Dallas.
John Clay Wolf
Right. And Live Nation wouldn't take a naming sponsor. I Heart didn't have control over it. So they kind of ditched the Bow and Gym bash and it was about ZZ Top. Now ZZ Top's Great. That's fine. I love them. Yeah. But I've been to Wichita Falls, Texas, when ZZ Top played and like, it's only half full. Yeah.
Before they got in the hall of fame.
They're not that big a deal. But it'll become that big of a deal because of the promotion on the event.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Who else is at now ZZ Top? Cheap Trick.
Yeah. Again, probably.
And there's a third band.
DJ Pre K
So it's basically if you did digital.
John Clay Wolf
Advertising for ZZ Top and Cheap Trick Trick at the Starplex, you'd have a turnout. If you blow it up and all the radio stations, this huge anniversary, blah, blah, blah tour, ZZ Top, ZZ Top, you. They make it sound so big that, that they. They create their own market.
J.D. Ryan
You talking about the Texas Bash?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
There's going to be a Bad Company.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Drink Bad Company and ZZ Top.
John Clay Wolf
That's a hell of a show.
Okay. But you and I went to Joe Walsh and Bad Company. What's better? Of course ZZ Top's great, but they are great. It's just. It's amazing what marketing does. Sure.
J.D. Ryan
You know that you were a promoter.
John Clay Wolf
I know it today. I mean, I still.
DJ Pre K
Texas Bash is presented by Live Nation or I Heart. No, it's not presented by anybody. There's no one on there that.
John Clay Wolf
It was Live Nation. And they sell out these corporate sponsorships and they want the money, so they've.
DJ Pre K
Totally cut the radio out of it.
John Clay Wolf
And. And the deal with the radio stations is when they have an exclusive. JD Ryan and the Rocket 88s are playing. You can get your tickets here. Da da da da. Then that's their show. But when it gets Live nations, like, we want all the radio stations to pitch it, so they'll just pay for their advertising. Amazing. And they figured they. And then they build it up so big and they can sell Coca Cola and they can sell Uber Smart. You know, it's just changed. So anyway, whatever that means. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio.
DJ Pre K
Speaking of whatever that means, did you hear the clip of Elon Musk singing a song? Why the founder of Tesla or CEO of Test?
John Clay Wolf
Why?
Was it a German?
DJ Pre K
No, no, it's not in German. It's very confusing. I don't know. Do you know what this came from?
John Clay Wolf
Bob O. I have no idea what he's doing. This is a guy who created the Tesla. Right. Okay, Tesla. And he's into space travel and all kinds of tech stuff, high tech stuff. So he decided to Record a rap single in tribute to Harambe, the gorilla that was. Was shot when a kid fell into his enclosure. Remember that?
That was four years ago.
I know. Well, and it's not a jokey thing. He sounds very sincere.
Thinking about you, man. We miss you. We really miss you. There's no way that's real. It's not Elon Musk.
It is, I swear to God.
J.D. Ryan
From the Rolling Stone magazine. Hear Elon Musk's surprise rap song, Rip Rumble. Yeah, it is real.
John Clay Wolf
It's on sound.
J.D. Ryan
It's on SoundCloud.
DJ Pre K
Why freak, you're bumping your head over there.
John Clay Wolf
He just went to prove that anybody can do this, you know.
DJ Pre K
Call me crazy. That's kind of jamming, man.
John Clay Wolf
I think there's a little auto tuning going on a little.
DJ Pre K
I'm digging that, man. I might have to hop on the remake.
J.D. Ryan
Apparently this starts started off as a. I'm reading now. It started off as a Twitter joke, so he put it out on SoundCloud just to kind of give a punchline to a joke.
John Clay Wolf
How many people engaged?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, Lord didn't say here.
DJ Pre K
I mean, for a guy like in his position.
J.D. Ryan
On some Bombay, that wasn't funny.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, funny.
DJ Pre K
It's a Harambe, everybody.
Michael Turley
The ghost of Harambe, man.
DJ Pre K
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
What's up?
Michael Turley
Hey, man, what's that old white man? That's wax sipping on Bombay. Goodbye, Harambe. What the hell, you know?
DJ Pre K
You offended by it?
Michael Turley
I mean, I, you know.
J.D. Ryan
Are you still mad about them shooting you?
Michael Turley
What? Damn right I made about that.
J.D. Ryan
I don't think so.
Michael Turley
I'm sitting down here, I'm chewing on a little bamboo.
J.D. Ryan
Cincinnati Zoo, just sitting there, minding your own business.
Michael Turley
Got some. Got some eye contact going with a little ape girl.
J.D. Ryan
Okay?
Michael Turley
Over cross enclosure. Don't go shake my fist at them like that. They like that.
John Clay Wolf

Remember, if you'd like to sell your car today or tomorrow or Monday, go to give. Give. Give me the VIN. Give me the VIN.com. you can put in your license plate number, your VIN number, and the computer will bid the car immediately. It takes 60 seconds. It's not like the other people online that ask you. It's like a. E. Harmony application where they ask you 5 million questions. Boom, boom, hit it. And then our buyers will call your, text you, email you, and make a deal with you. It's that simple. We buy a surprisingly large amount of the cars of people that apply that go through the form.
Michael Turley
Don't let your kids do that for you. Now you got to do that yourself. Keep an eye on your damn children.
J.D. Ryan
Right? Exactly.

John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Yeah, let's do that. All right, we'll see y' all Monday, next Saturday. And remember, give me the VIN dot com. I'm gonna go downstairs to look at some of these deals and buy some cars.

Podcast Summary & Detailed Breakdown
This lively episode of The John Clay Wolfe Show—broadcast live from Dallas, Texas, and powered by GiveMeTheVIN.com—features John and the crew riffing on a messy Dennis Quaid no-show, celebrity music failings, car deals (both disastrous and successful), raunchy office culture, and a parade of provocative, irreverent stories. The show's freewheeling tone blends car business, biting pop-culture commentary, personal tangents, and listener call-ins, all with a “less cars, more bull” spirit.
The entire show is a raucous, unscripted roller-coaster: zero PC-policing, with a heavy Texas-meets-American-dude flavor; sharp-witted and unfiltered, but laced with wry honesty about family, failure, and the strange underbelly of pop culture. Listeners are as much a part of the show as the panel—and often targets of the hosts’ roasting. Cars provide the backbone, but the show’s soul is its willingness to go off the rails, often in the pursuit of hilarious (and sometimes jaw-dropping) truths.
If you want a blend of car business, shock jock bravado, cultural commentary, and unvarnished masculinity—all with a twist of off-kilter honesty and wild storytelling—this is the episode for you. Expect to laugh, wince, and marvel at the delicate balance between high-value deals, lo-fi bits, and a “no topic off-limits” attitude. For the best bits, check:
